FIRST DAY OF INTERNSHIP!!!!
9.30am! arrived at WHITE SPACING LIVING company at bukit merah! more than a hour bus ride from home! But this long rides are where one can take time to relax in and read a book.
I thought i was going to be lateee as i came on the dot...but ONLY the secretary was there... was told i was early! HAHAH! anyways stoneee at the seating area for abt 30 mins before the senior designer Agil brought me to a table with some of the other designers. Felt very awkward at first, doing nothing for abt another 30mins, read abt 4 design magazine and books on the shelves before the boss Derrick talk to me in his office. Was told to observe the surroundings, observes some of the company proposal layouts on my first day of work.
Abt 12.45pm ...THANK FULLY some wonderful colleagues brought me out for lunch...as my stomach was starting to make noise and i was basically feeling like some GOONDOO on my first day at that table. Didnt dare to talk as everyone if the wanted to go for lunch as everyone seem so busy! EXCEPT ME!
They brought me to ABC market nearby and got to know this really nice friendly people, ummi (a former Tp design student), junhao (wants to be known as SPYROS! hahhah! ummi find that name WEIRD! his from malaysia) and Li wen(aka Carter his from China!) This 3 were the first people i really talk too..and coincidently they are pretty new here too, only abt a mth or so... Felt more warm up after lunch with these ppl...
After lunch... Derrick told me to help this other intern from SP(Tian Ying i think, not sure if spelt her name corrently)... and you know what... I alone did a total of tearing and pasting abt 1500 stamps on these envelopes! Spend abt 4 hours plus doing all! I can never imagine ONE person being able to do all those..after awhile..i kinda got the hang of it..being able to tear those stamps faster and paste faster! Knocked off at 6.50pm!
(felt really tired after doing all those stamp pasting and tearing...the number of envelopes i did is more than Double what you see on the right!)
Wesley YM Easter Play- Gospel According to Mark!
This cld be the most memorable EASTER of my life!!!After hours and hours of rehearsals! The actual play in todays easter evangelistic service was just pure class!
All the characters acted their rolesss so well! And the atmosphere for the whole play was perfect! Really creating the actual scene of Jesus Crucification according to the Gospel of Mark! The whole play wassss sooooo good that there were ONLY positive feedbacks from ppl. And many felt it wass wayyyyyyyy better than anyone can imagine! This play is another example yet again of God's amazing grace for us! And theres so much to testify how this event was great testimony for wesley ym...from actors who almost cldnt make it too crosses that almost cldnt comeee and God just continue to provide and provide yet again for us!
With only the recent ubin event ...DESTINATION AGAIN not long ago... and now another splendid performance by some of the most talented bunch of ymers acting and dancing in this play!!! woww i really cannot describe in words!although im only acting as a crowd...being part of this whole event actually really make one see how God actually humbled himself in human form and suffered before our very eyes and dying for our sins! And it wassss so real that just going thru how the actual scene of what Jesus Christ did for us really shows how real GOD's Love for us is!!!
And with all those time and days spent together especially that one nite spend overnite in church really brought all of us closer and got to know other ymers better too! it was amazing experience!
Rehearsal's! (last sunday,Good friday and Saturday)...

Maundy Thursday!
Todays the last dayyyy of the BLOCK! anddd also the last day of my year 2 in TP design sch!! 4 more days to my INTERNSHIP in White Space Living Pte Ltd! Pretty excited actually although im going to work from monday to saturday for 2 mths!
Anyway met up with vyan and charles for lunch and decided to catch the movie Rule #1! And im actually quite happy watching that show! I can sayyyy its one of the more scarier better shows i ever watch! the closest to shutter! But its not just the scare tactics use! But the AWESOME PLOT and TWIST and FLASH BACKS and FUTURE SCENES! that really makes this part Singapore production sooo goood! This show really gives u a lot of questions at the start and strange scenes that will just add to the complication BUT with the answer and TWIST ALL REVEALED at the end! One wld be pretty amazed at how it all came together! With some pretty comical scenes too! It really makes it a joy in watching this horror suspense show! well normally i dun give horror show high ratings! but i wld give this a 3.5/5 stars! Closeee to 4!as its veryyy close to my all time favorite horror show shutter.
After that ate dinner with some of my small grp members! and it was a very nice service today remembering the last supper of Jesus Christ before his crucification. GOOD FRIDAY!!! sooon!... rmb Its Friday!But SSUNDAY's COMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
