Before I throw myself back into (brainless) work and eating (crappy) expensive food

Do you know what date is it tomorrow? It's the sixth of December. That's right in a month's time results are out. All who will only panic on the 5th of Jan say Aye. On other news, boy time really flies when you are trying too hard to have fun by whiling away your days running in the hot sun, climbing up flights of stairs (oh look I just did 75 stories! Hmm maybe I'll do a hundred tomorrow, the air would be fresher up there. You get the idea), pretending you are actually trying to read intellectual books (I recently walked into the library, skipped the Fiction section and borrowed 5 books on topics like Psychology, religion and maids O.o) and cooking (why does your mom NEVER follow the instructions in the cook books?).Sooo...I've decided to pluck myself out of this miserable life of TRYING to have fun by actually dumping myself back into what I do best (and therefore, through some existential way of reasoning, would enjoy the most). That is work with an emphasis on the Kk sound. Yes, fellow bumbling quarter life crisis mates, I am going to be productive and contribute to the rapidly expanding economy (sounds like I'm making babies or something:S) and get back to WorKk. So come Monday, goodbye social life and FB idling (stalking is a wrong/bad word, all I do is sit and stare at the home screen) and hello Money churning, menial handling, air conditioned, I-actually-am-doing-something-useful-with-my-life WORKk. Yes thus for 6.50 an hour, 5 days a week, 10 minus 1 for lunch hours a day, I would be sandwiched between 2 gigantic shelves, at a desk, branded shirts in hand (I heard the place I work at handles Armani :O) and I am going to....remove electronic tags. Pause. Wait for it. Don't say it. WoW. Ok so the only reason I'm typing this post is so I can enjoy the nice clacking sound of the keyboard before it goes kinda quiet for a month and when I would spend my time sitting and thinking of the outside world and all its undiscovered beauty. Did I mention that I'm also kinda bored? Scratch that. I AM bored. Sat in church alone today (no, contrary to popular belief, I am not a psychotic anti social planning what I would have for lunch after service - got you there - when the sermon is on. Just that I don't really know people in Church but getting to know them now through cell group =D). The sermon was kinda...um...iffy. Basically on Hebrews 3, talking about the Builder being more important than the building, that Jesus is greater than Moses etc. Nodded my head in agreement though nothing awe inspiring stuck out, gah guess I have to re read that chapter again. But there was this funny bit when the pastor asked: 'so when you look at HDB flats, don't you think about the architects who created them? The engineers? How it was made? Surely you must have!' Whole congregation: 'O.O' Oh btw, as mentioned above, in my pursuit to pretend that I have grown up (come on I'm eighteen coming eighty). Just to share a few interesting books that I borrowed.Emotionally intelligent living: Strategies for increasing your EQ by Geetu Bharwaney I am not sick: I don't need help by Dr. Xavier AmadorReligion: Key concepts in Philosophy by Brendan SweetmanThe last one is really interesting, trying to digest it bit by bit now =D Oh and look out for more cooking recipies! I just baked shepherds pie on Friday (was supposed to do it a few days earlier but just when we were going to get out to buy the beef, it poured :S) and have an awesome dofu dish too!Gah really missing all my friends back in school :S~In the silence...I'm waiting to hear your voice~
