Episode: 3

Expecting another hectic day of school, I got out of bed around 7am. I reached school quite early. Had the first lesson of Interaction Design Technology. As there were still some of my classmates heading their way to the room, I decided to collect yesterday's work form the rest. It seems to be a miracle that my classmates handed their work according to the requirements. Or maybe they read my previous entry, where I complained about them not doing their part.

Anyways, we got a hold of this new program(its new to me) called LEGO creations. First we plugged in the connection cable to our laptops and typed in the run code. This was to lead us to the powerpoint slide for the day and the installation of the program. For the program to work, we had to use this gadget. It really looks like those 1st version Gameboy.

Ivan seem to have fun playing with it.

Well, it looks like this.

After doing some simple exercises, we were dismissed. Our class was supposedly start at 8am and ends at 10am. Instead we started around 8.30am and ended at 9.45am or so. Well, had breakfast with Cindy, Saf and Ting Jie. I had the breakfast set. It was my first time ordering it. Well, it is not that bad, but not filling. Soon, they wanted to go home passing the renovated food court 5. I just joined them, as soon as they stepped further in to go home, I headed back to my studio.

Well, there is nothing much at the food court 5. All they did was to cover the whole food court with glass walls,installed the air condition and improved the lightings. Overall, it seems much hygienic compared to last semester, when the KFC there used dusty fans.


When I reached studio, there were already a few people there. I got back to the studio to do a few things. Since my lecturer was pressurising me for my portfolio, I wanted to simply convert my portfolio I did last night to PDF (I don't have the PDF conversion) .I had to to my resume first, so that it would be much efficient to convert both at the same time, which I did. I got back the power point I did for Carolyn yesterday. Soon, Icy gave hers. So, I compile it to the layout I did. I had to wait for the other two groups to send me theirs, but it seemed that they keep on delaying. So, I did my resume 1st. Once it is done, they still have not completed their part. I know it is still early, but at that time I was rushing, as I need to be somewhere. I know I should not be, but it is very very very very very very important that I leave early. I still need to send my lecturer yesterday's work which many still have not sent me.

In a nutshell:
1) portfolio to PDF (All laptops busy)
2) resume to PDF ((All laptops busy) Thanks to Zhai Wei for lending his laptop in the end.
3) classmates to send me their works (Delayed)
4) power point from the two groups (Still doing)
5) PDF portfolio and resume send to lecturer (Delayed)
6) classmates works need to send to lecturer (Delayed)

All of this to be done quickly as I need to go off early. In the end, after Zhai Wei's help, I find that it would be better to just leave since I have done what I had to and find it inefficient to just wait for them to finish their works. Sent whatever files I had for yesterday's work, as well as my resume and portfolio and left for home.

Reached home at 2.30pm. I am still not in a good mood. All that waiting in the studio had left me very intense thinking of what to do to be efficient. I even crashed down on my knees and took many big breaths. Soon, I got ready and went out at 3.45pm. I met my gal at the MRT and were on the way to Far East.

This was the reason why I had to leave early. Today was our 3years anniversary as a couple. Before this, I really though of not going out with my gal to celebrate this day, due to the amount of work I have. But, I think I really need her at times like these to help me clam down. So, we just went to Far East to look for a backpack. On the way there, I saw John. Yes John! He was walking there, alone. He saw me too. Hmm... Anyways, after a successful window shopping, we got to the Heeren before eating together.

My gal soon brought me to this place to eat. It is called BBQ Chicken. I have never heard of it until now. Their outlet locations are mostly at the North side of Singapore. This one, is located at Cineleisure basement, next to the escalator which was somehow blocked form publics view.

Their menu contains mostly varieties of chicken and some yummy ice-creams. There were not much, but boy it was delicious! I had this. It is called Korean Charbroi. It tasted like Satay..hehe.

This was what my gal had. Jerk BBQ. To me, hers was nicer. Both have such explosive flavour. I grade both 4.5/5 stars.

Oh, ya. I saw this in the menu. I find this really interesting. So I bought it. Cost me $5.50, but the experience was worth it. It is called Cola popcorn chicken. On its top, lies a layer of popcorn chicken, and the bottom, a soft drink of our choice. Sounds disgusting? Well, check this out.

The two is actually separated like so. So, you can enjoy your popcorn chicken and at the same time quench your thirst by drinking from the same cup. The guy who came up with this is such a genius.

After eating, we went home.

Let me share with you guys something. These are pictures of us at different times. Now that we have reached our third year together, looking back at those earlier times, we really change a lot. But the one thing that remains the same, is our feelings for each other.

Before we got together.


A year after.

Two years after.


Our third year.


I really love her a lot. I do. We had been through many moments together. I still remember those sweet moments as well as rough moments. In time, we learn more and more about each other and build this relationship stronger than it ever was. Times are not getting any easier, with both of us being very busy with studies, certain things have to be sacrificed. Whatever problems that arise, I believe that we can solve it, together.
