end of my internship
i no longer need to:
1) wake up freaking early in the morning
2) wake up freaking early in the morning, and keep thinking either i should keng one day MC
3) sleep on the smelly morning bus
4) do meaningless sai gang and make me feel like wasting my time
5) see that bastard tio chong heng who likes to threaten me, but in the end having to "lun" me with my fucking attitude shot back at him
6) taking much extended lunchbreak and refusing to go back office
7) keep looking at my computer screen and keep acting busy so that i can tio less sai gang
8) keep going to toilet so that i can siam more sai gang
however, with the end of my internship, i also cannot:
1) meet my fellow nus interns and enjoy a lot of jokes with them during lunch time
2) meet the smu friends that i've gotten to know
3) print anything and everything for free
4) "steal" highlighters, pencil lead and others
5) get my pathetic $800 monthly internship allowance
well, comparatively, seems like itz still a good deal to have my internship ends. my holidays finally started!!!!
but retrospectively, i have to say that most of my colleagues are pretty fine. they are quite nice people, and takes good care of me. somehow, i m treated like a baby (they couldn't believe i am 24.... they keep thinking i am 18-19 lidat. they were astonished when they realised i've finished army!! do i look so juvenile?). being treated like a baby means that, they treat me fine other than the constant sai gang.
at the end of it all, i've gotten 3 treats in all. on thursday, one single colleague treat me to the canteen cos she wun be joining the outing on friday. on friday noon, the section bought pizzas and treated me. in the night, the whole department, taking my departure as an excuse/opportunity for a departmental meeting. so, we went bowling at marina south, and had a gau gau dinner at long beach marina. the dinner is the best among all the 3 treats.... probably cost a few hundred bucks bah for a 16 person dinner. seafood... gau gau... probably one of my most gau dinner.
and, i've also gotten 2 gifts from the department and the people. 3 colleagues from my section bought another mp3 player for me. LE-MON mp3 player, 512mb. and, i've gotten an Azur 4200 (one of the many Philips Iron) from the department.
well... as a last day, i think i've got quite a pack of gifts.
all in all, thanks.
