Holidays!

The exams are over and the holidays start! Actually my last paper was on 27th Apr and I'm pretty satisfied with what I wrote, just hope the bell curve will treat me well :/ I'm prepared to s/u the gem, and I'm probably never going to take a maths/ stats mod again (but I still gt st1232 next year as a core mod!!! and I haven fulfilled my faculty requirement yet :( so means I might be suffering at the hands of maths/ stats/ physics again! And I can't s/u these mods!!)

Anyway, I 'll do a module review some other day. This post is supposed to be about the upcoming 3 month holidays that I'm having, and I really want to make it a meaningful one. The irony is even though I want to enjoy my free time and do things that I want to do, I probably can't find enough things to last me 3 months, or won't bankrupt me :/

Should I get an internship? Well, of course. But damn, I missed out on the TIP!! Totally forgot about it. They probably wouldn't accept me cos my grades aren't very good. Should I get a job? Definitely, but I hope I can find something that is related to my major so that I have an idea of what I can do when I graduate (time flies, I'm gonna be year 2 already!!) I'm in a dilemma cos honestly, I don't know what should I do in the future. I like Science, and before I was in JC I wanted to be a teacher. But now, seems like I'm easily influenced by people around me saying that being a teacher is not very good. It does carry some truth though, and I want to spice up my portfolio/ resume so that I can land the dream teaching job in the future. (If I can find work in a relevant industry and further my studies, I might be able to get to that.)

Let's see, what is in place for me this summer?

May:
7 (tomorrow, or rather, later): Orientation meeting in the morning in school, and then going to look at the music school and shop in the afternoon (I'm still undecided :/)
8: ALR
10: Watching RV Choir's concert (Makes mental note to save 7 bucks for this)

Plus gotta come up with a plan for matric fair. Like, I've forgotten about matric fair, lol. Suddenly reminded that it's coming soooon! Haha, I'm somewhat excited to meet the new freshies! I'm no longer a freshie :(

And I think I'm going for a guitar concert this month, somewhere in May. I've forgotten when's the date, I think it's towards the end of the month. And I still owe pq money! (Makes mental note to save 50 bucks for that)

June:
First few days (can't rmb when ><) going for an astronomy event volunteering in school haha. Sounds cool!!  Astronomy!! And then I think I got nothing else in June le. Lol. Empty. Maybe I can get a job/ plan outing with friends during this month.

July:
Sounds busier cos school's gonna start soon. Hmm, let me try to recall, I think there should be more guitar stuff, like matric fair, planning for the next concert, might have pracs :/ And the orientation camp. (Makes mental note to save some money for the camp, like... $60? Enough??)

Now, what's with the making mental notes to save money? Cos I'm thinking of learning violin. And I'm not working, so that's gonna eat up a huge chunk of whatever I've saved from my past allowances, which is not a lot. The instrument itself is expensive (or else you won't get a good one) and then the monthly fees is another thing. I'm still deliberating about it, not just due to the money issue, but also time. Do I have the time? Studies + practicing guitar + comm stuff + practicing violin?? Studies are top priority cos I gotta push up that cap so that I can get into Hons or else employment might be harder to secure in the future. And comm stuff are on the same level as studies, cos I've committed myself to it and should do my best (And I've never regretted putting this commitment on my plate :)) So I shan't disappoint the seniors, my peers, the incoming juniors, and of course, myself. And then there's practicing guitar, I'm not very good at it, and there will be juniors coming in, so must not be too lousy or rusty if not got no face hahaha. And I don't know how prime's like, haha, sounds "easier" than alto generally, but is it really so? Haha, gotta train myself in chords and reading multiple notes at once. I'm still stuck with reading simple single notes lol. Really want to see improvements, currently I'm still stagnant. Thinking of getting books to prac (needs $$ too).

So how? Very scared I can't cope financially and with my time. And if I can't cope financially means I would have to get a tuition job or something. So the time available decreases even more. This reminds me of a picture I saw on FB:

Teens: got time, got energy, but no money
Working: got energy, got money, but no time
Old age: got money, got time, but no energy
Moral: Enjoy every stage of your life, cos you can't have everything at once

How true. Haha, and I've been wanting to learn violin/ viola cos I want to be in an orchestra. Haha. Now that I'm in guitar ensemble, I think this dream can be considered fulfilled? Really happy to play in an ensemble, playing with many others haha. Or the better players (which is like everyone) can cover my bad, wayward playing, hahaha. jk la, I really like to play tgt ok!

Suddenly had an image in my head, I'm working in Cadbury's factory and everyday I go to work with the aroma of chocolates welcoming me and surrounding me as I work; everywhere I go I'm surrounded by chocolate; every breath I take has a tinge of chocolately smell in it. Haha, best is if I'm working in the manufacturing dept, or something that can allow me to see the chocolates and smell them in the air (I sound like some predator). All these spell B-L-I-S-S. Haha, how wonderful will that be. But just a dream :( Singapore doesn't have Cadbury factories, the ones that manufacture chocolates I think.

In summary, my holidays = comm stuff + prac guitar + LS orientation (hopefully doesn't clash with guitar) + going for concerts + outings (1 as of now, will have more, if not I will plan, haha got bdays coming!) + get a job/ internship (subject to availability cos I'm on money conservation mode now) + adhoc stuffs (caligraphy cos I bought the paper alrdy; learning PS; packing my room and blah blah) + learning violin??

Looking forward to a meaningful hols!

PS Saw somewhr that Hebe's gonna have a concert sometime this year (forgot when). Feel like going! But subject to availability of money ($88 cheapest). And I feel like going for the next SHE concert (with approval from my wallet again) cos very long nv see them tgt and nv go this kind of concert before. Haha. Start saving/ earning money!! And scouting for people to go with me hehe. (Makes another mental note)
