CNY and Preparation for Avalon, Australia

Going for another detachment again, this time to Avalon Airport, near the city of Geelong, Victoria, Australia.. Hope I will have time to study over in Geelong.. Finished my first assignment with sweat and also having my first lunar new year since 2008..

29th Jan 2011 Sat - Accompany Jerlyn to Orchard for her waxing session.. Chinese New Year is around the corner so everyone is doing their last minute shopping.. But it doesn't seem a lot of people at Orchard at the time.. We didn't buy anything because we had too much new clothes at home for us to dig out and wear..

30th Jan 2011 Sun - Went to my cousin Jaymee aka Piaky and Calvin's house after visiting my sister at Hougang.. Her house was really beautiful.. Spent about $50,000 on renovations and $398,000 for a 4 rooms unit which they hacked down one room to have a bigger master bedroom.. Started my first assignment.. doesn't really know where to start.. during my poly days, I didn't even write reports before so this was quite a challenge for me.. After the end of the day.. nothing much came out..

31st Jan 2011 Mon - Back to work.. Everyday I tried to do bit by bit of my assignment.. hope something would come out..

1st Feb 2011 Tue - Work Again.. Googled Vancouver style of referencing.. Thought that this will be easier than End Note..

2nd Feb 2011 Wed - Its Chinese New Year Eve.. Both me and Jerlyn was not working.. We went to my parents' house and eat lunch ourselves as my parents were at Hougang visiting my sister.. Jerlyn ransack some stuff and underwear back from my house at night when we went back to pray..

3rd Feb 2011 Thurs - 1st day of Lunar New Year.. Went back my parents' house again then went to my 2nd uncle's house to visit them.. As usual everyone will gather at his house every first day of chinese new year.. Went to 4th uncle's house and then to Cynthia's house to see her new home.. Seem like its a new hobby for me and Jerlyn to go visit people new house.. Her house was really nice and simple for a 3 rooms unit.. forgot how much was her renovations and the value of her house.. After that we went to my aunt's house.. Everyone were playing cards and mahjong and we joined in the fun of mahjong with my cousin and his kids for a while.. Cant imagine that my cousin's eldest daughter who is my niece is 24 years old this year.. Actually I have a distant niece who is one year older than me that means I became uncle before I was born haha.. And she happens to be my poly mate who I went to her house to stay and study during exams.. Went back home and played mahjong again with Jerlyn's aunt and uncle..

4th Feb 2011 Fri - 2nd day of Lunar New Year.. Stay home this day to catch up on my assignment.. Jerlyn went up to play mahjong again while I continue to do my assignment as there is not much time left..

5th Feb 2011 Sat - 3rd day of Lunar New Year.. Went to Bishan to visit Jerlyn 1st aunt's house.. Still pressing for my assignment but speed was quite slow at the moment.. Went up to Jerlyn's aunt house to play mahjong to destress..

6th Feb 2011 Sun - 4th day of Lunar New Year.. Stay home and finally finished my assignment.. Submitted to my school website via Turnitin, a system that can detect plagiarism when you submit.. I got 0 percent for it which is fantastic but being my 1st time, I began to wonder is there any problem with the system rather than being happy with it..

7th Feb 2011 Mon - Went to work and still thinking of my assignment..

8th Feb 2011 Tue - Ask around and there is people who have the same 0 percent like me.. so it should be fine.. so I pack my luggage and sent it to my workplace..

9th Feb 2011 Wed - Work and school.. Went to school and ask my lecturer Anne and she told me that 0 percent is rare.. So she told us to keep a copy of proof for we can argue if there is really any problem with the system.. I asked around and found more people having the same thing.. Anyway went home and edit my assignment again and submit it again..

10th Feb 2011 Thurs - Work and school again.. Getting more tired everyday with work and school.. It really drains me out..

11th Feb 2011 Fri - Its Friday.. Went to work and came back early and went to Trisa's house with Jerlyn.. Ate steamboat and chatted..

12th Feb 2011 Sat - i told Jerlyn that we would celebrate Valentine on this day as I will be working and having lesson on the actual day.. So we decide to go to Sentosa to see the flowers for our 5th Valentine day.. It was also the 2nd time that we visited the Sentosa Flowers event.. Is a yearly event and it will only have this event during the lunar new year.. The 1st time that we went was the time that I propose to Jerlyn after the Sentosa Flowers Event.. So we were quite excited to go again.. But this time doesn't really seem to be better than last time.. After that we went to Bakerzin for our dinner..

13th Feb 2011 Sun - Went to Andy's house for the PC2 wives gathering.. Husbands were of course invited too.. 5 years 5 rooms unit for $650,000 was really expensive.. But due to its location it seems reasonable.. That make me wonder when we can have our own unit..

14th Feb 2011 Mon - Work and school again.. As most of my skinxwear underwear is packed in the luggage and laundry is not washed, I have no choice but to wear my other brands underwear which is very tight.. This make me uncomfortable and grumpy all day.. By end of the day I'm having rashes again.. So no more tight underwear and buy more skinxwear during the Great Singapore Sale haha..

15th Feb 2011 Tue - Getting nearer to my detachment so work is getting more and more.. Saw 3 more people submitting their early release form make me wonder about my future again.. It really making me think hard that staying for long wasn't really a good idea anyway.. I know everywhere is the same old shit but if everyone wants to leave.. There is really something wrong with the management..

16th Feb 2011 Wed - Got a visitor from work about my secondary appointment.. He gave some pointers about it and left.. I was left with little time to do the changes.. Hope the rumors that he gave is not real.. If not after the detachment I got to work like hell..

17th Feb 2011 Thurs - It a Detachment off day for me so I can prepare for the next day flying off to Darwin, Australia.. But due to weather in Darwin, my flight is postponed to next Monday.. Which means I have to work tomorrow and spend the weekend in Singapore..
