Today At Clementi...

I hate paperwork! I rather do boring maths tutorials or impossible-to-do Electromagnetics homework. It is not that I am not good at paperwork. On the contrary, I am actually very good with them. When I was in the Army my paperwork is flawless (well almost or at least it look like that are to my superiors). But as one would put it, laziness bring forth innovation. So I designed a computer database system to significantly shorten then time spend on them. But I still hate them, because they are so boring... A good leader needs to be administratively strong, and seemed like I don't meet that criteria. =p

Went to Clementi Central after MINDS today. My time at MINDS has thought me to slow down for other people and showed myself that I am capable of helping an old lady wash her hands without breaking her fingers. I really enjoyed my time there. Everything seemed to peaceful and slow. It is as if time has stopped so that everyone could catch their breaths. My purpose of going Clementi Central is to buy my Singapore Studies Text From Clementi Bookstore.

I walked into the shop and straight to the counter and showed the staff the ISBN of the book I wanted. After 10 seconds of fiddling with her computer, she replied "No Stock." The whole process took less then 30 seconds. On my way back to the train station, I saw bubble tea and tarts, but I resisted the temptation of buying them as it would cost me my dinner which is due in a 2 hours time. Knowing that I have a whole pile of paperwork waiting for me at my desk, I decided to procrastinate a little and take a walk around the Central.


Ok, I need to sleep soon! Tomorrow 8am class again... If anyone see me puke blood around NUS, please be careful not to slip over them. =p
