trials and tribulations - 2:28 PM
4 weeks into the summer holidays, I'm still jobless. Now, this is getting out of hand! If I'm STILL jobless for another 2 weeks, its game over for me. I don't know what I'm gonna do, seriously. For the uninformed, its COMPULSORY for me to do an internship. Somehow, somewhere. Penalty for not doing one? I don't get to take HB Human Resources class nx semester, PLUS I won't graduate in time. Cos I'll need to do the 2nd internship next summer....I don't quite understand this. I'm a nice person, I care for my family and friends, I try to recycle, reuse, and reduce. I don't have any obvious bad habits, I will offer my seat on the MRT to someone who needs it more than I do, I am generous, gracious, and kind. My only recognizable vice is eating poor animals but I can't control that... so why is this happening to me?!??!?! I just. don't. understand.it. .. unless, of course, the suay year that my Ma predicted at the turn of the Dog year is really coming true. Lemme see, oh shoot... its all becoming so bloody obvious!
I mean, this semester, I've fallen ill on several accouts, something that has NEVER happened for the past few years. Lao sai, throbbing headache, flu and fever several times, vomiting.... All in a span of like, 4 months... when usually I have NO such defiencies at all. Results are beyond bad, so horrible that even until today I don't dare to check, and probably never will unless threatened. No job, thats the worst. At this kinda desperate times, you can't fault me for being superstitious. After all, I've tried all sorts of ways to improve my situation (except studying harder), but everything bad still happened. So the easiest way to blame my predicament upon is suay luck.
OK, wadeva. In a last minute bid to save money, I'm gonna walk down to East Village for dinner. its about 40 blocks. (eh... that far eh... mebbe I should reconsider then.) But it will be good exercise considering I've done minimal the past month. But then I'd have to inhale lotsa 2nd hand smoke and et cetera... I'm seriously considering picking up smoking while in this city. After all, isn't first hand smoke slightly healthier than 2nd hand recycled one?
