You've Got Spam

"Uh-oh" goes the ring-tone of my SMS.
And it really irritates me when it's spam.
Receive 30% off... Retrive details of how... Promotion available now.. etc..

The thing is, I don't feel as irritated when it's email spam.
And my polling results (of maybe poll size 5 friends), feels the same way.
So i gave it some thought. That's why sometimes my friends say I think too much (read: Bo Liao)

My conclusion. The reasons why we don't get as irritated when it's email spam is because:

1) It's such a big problem, we've given up while SMS spam is still pretty within control
2) Email accounts come free (mostly). So like all free things, we put up with the inconveniences whereas for SMSes, we pay for subscription and thus expectations are higher.
3) We usually have some time on hand and prepared when we check emails, so we are prepared to face email spam whereas for SMSes, we are usually caught in our daily activities.

Binging

I'm binging again.. Binging on food..
Just like in the past when I was studying for exams..
Whenever I'm stressed I tend to eat too much..
Consciously or Subconsciously..

Think I'm stressed.. Because I'm eating way tooooo much..
Luckily I stocked up on fruits and vege.. so that helps..
Fruits and Vege are supposed to be good for health..
But still, I gotta watch it.. Because not THAT much, I'm sure haha..

The season of stress is here again..
Final quarter push..

Don't give up!

Fireworks - Singapore Team

Some pictures of the fireworks on Tuesday by the Singapore Team.

Thanks Zohri!

Fireworks - Italy Team

Some of the Pics from my secondary school buddy of the fireworks we caught on Saturday.
It was put up by the team from Italy and I must say.. It was GREAT!

Some of the techniques that I saw for the first time..
1) Fireworks bouncing off the water.. REPEATEDLY..
2) Fireworks.. the sparks.. hanging in the air and floating in the air with the wind as there were small parachutes attached to them. (How amazing is that?!)
3) Fireworks with colour only appearing at its tips towards the end..

Hope the ones put up by the other teams are as good.. If I do catch them..

Firsts..

Conducted my first recruitment interview on Saturday.
It was really a great learning experience.
It was pretty fun and interesting actually to be the "interviewer".
All the practices and role-plays with my work buddy was nothing like the real thing.
Nothing beats experiencing the real thing and then REALLY think about it and learn from it rather than just talking and discussing about it.
I will only get better!

I'd probably be getting some stick from some friends for saying this..
They'd probably say I'm too emotional/sentimental and I think too much..
But I think that is not necessarily a bad thing.. so here goes..
Watched my first fireworks on Saturday without that certain someone.
Not that it made me upset or affected my mood or anything..
It was just a thought that came to my mind..

First clubbing session on Saturday to about 5 in the morning.
Never would have thought that I could have that kind of energy.
Well, one reason why I clubbed til so late was probably because it was pretty fun..
Ended up chatting and partying a little with this group of 4 cabin crew that was beside us..
One of the stewardess was like teasing me..
But I must admit I enjoyed it..Cheap thrill.. Haha..
Another reason is because it was going to be like my "last" clubbing session. "last" as in, in future will probably just go if it's some birthday/holiday/gathering/celebration kind of thing.. and not just because I feel bored on weekends..
Well, not like I have been clubbing A LOT but it's still way too often by my standards..
So I want to spend my time more constructively, not to mention save my money and more importantly my liver haha..
So we shall see how it goes..
