Bedroom, Home ( I live in Tanglin now).
It has been quite sometime since I blogged hasnt it!
Anyways yesterday I was making my resume ( its job hunting season again) in which I mentioned somewhere about my blog ( boasting my writing skills! I hope the companies dont actually check this place!). I felt guilt about putting it in my resume; afterall I have’nt blogged in so long. So the resume was the reason to resume blogging again. (Sorry for the horrible pun-usage!).
So what have I been upto lately? Lots of things….Firstly, I am obsessed with this version of Rock you Like a Hurricane! Check it out:
There is something so good about orchestra and Heavy Metal together !
I have been quite busy with GSS work and academics and job hunting! Well…my tenure as VP is over at GSS but I havent abandoned it. I am still working as a mentor to the committee! Just trying to contribute something more in the last 6 months that I have at NUS. There are lots of issues that we grad students need to fight for at NUS! Anyways there is so much on that..maybe I can write a separate post on the state of the Graduate Student at NUS.
Next to academics. I screwed up my grades royally last sem. My GPA plummeted from 4.5 to 3.9. I can kiss my chances of a first class goodbye yet again! So I just want to cross the 4.0 mark at the end of this semester ( my last one). For that I am targeting to get three A’s. For that very reason I picked up what I thought were the three easiest modules. But sadly fate was playing its dirty tricks on me again. In one of the ostensibly ‘easier’ modules the instructor changed and now its a ‘ not-so-easy-to-get-A ‘ module. Anyways that means more effort needs to go into studies. I am not playing cricket this semester, so that does save up some time.
Oh ! Btw I totally forgot…I bought a new laptop! Yeah the old Toshiba finally died & I am back to good old Fujitsu. My dad is still using my 6 yr old Fujitsu and strongly encouraged ( read ordered) me to buy a Fujitsu again.
Job! Job! Job!
Yes its J hunting season for me now and I am exploring all possible career choices from: PHd to Photography to Engineering Consultant to Novelist(??!!?) to Work for Agastya (oh yeah…Agas is CEO of a company now..talk of accelerated career growth!!). So yeah..I am still not sure what I want to do, but one thing is for sure…whatever I do …I want to get rich and get there fast….so that I can retire at 40. 
And then do what I like the most – nothing!
Anyways time for bed. Need to get to bed. Assignment deadline tomorrow and need to get up and do that! Hopefully this enthusiasm to blog is sustained and I will see you tomorrow.
