i woke up early because i had to reach CDC by 8am for my e-trial test subsequently followed by my BTT (yes, finally). the first time i did the e-trial i got 88% so the screened flashed "FAILED". i was stunned. luckily it was just the e-trial. after that, i tried another paper and passed. i finished quite fast so after doing some last minute reading up i went to the toilet. it's quite hard to find toilets where you have to pay 10cents to enter but you can still find them at CDC (they are so cheapo). ok, at least they are well-maintained. after that i went to do the actual BTT. i passed! yay! so i can start having practical lessons. after that i took a bus to bedok then took the MRT to tampines because...
it's the grand opening of th Uniqlo store today! it was soooooooooooo crowded. when i just got to the newly opened trampines 1, i looked high and low for the shop but to no avail. eventually i finally found it. it's at level 2 in case you wanted to know. they've got quite a wide range of clothes but the stuff for guys is not as varied as compared to the stuff for girls. really a lot of stuff for girls. i picked out a few items and headed to the fitting room. the queue was unbelieably slow. i waited around 40minutes to try on my clothes. i'd say the service is quite good though. they had a person who would help you get sizes if the piece you tried on doesn't fit right. well, by the time i got to the cashier it's about the near-end of lunch hour which meant that office people would have gone back and and hungry aunties would be having lunch so the queue at the cashier was temporarily shorter than usual (it was all the way from the cashier till the entrance) so i managed to pay in around 15minutes of queue-ing. i'll admit that currently it's a little overhyped and i hope things normalize soon. if not everyone will be wearing the same thing. phew~ after that i rushed back to office.
meh work is as usual. nothing much special but some colleagues got pretty excited when they saw me with the uniqlo pastic bag and wanted to see the catalogue i brought back. after work we headed over to RE to submit our timesheets (they better pay us on time this time round). after that i grabbed a quick dinner and headed down to the gym.
oh ya, before we left orchard and me heading to the gym, there was quite a commotion at orchard road. there was some topless chinese guy like walking in the middle of the busy road. then he got into a quarrel with some indian man and the TP and police came to restrain him. but surprisingly (or rather disappointingly) they didn't try to arrest him but tried to get him into a cab (which he refused to get in) which they just randomly flagged to stop(poor taxi driver. wasted his time waiting and he might have to fetch the crazy guy) . i think he's a little off his rockers. many people were speculating what happened. some guy beside me said "must be he fell out of the taxi". duh, no, don't anyhow assume can? so i made an even more exaggerated comment like "oh i think just now the man fell off Tangs leh". the worse thing is, the person on my other side heard me say this and actually considered it as a possibility. he said (to his friend) "people say he fell off the building leh. hmm...but if he fell he should be injured hor?" in a genuinely confused tone. *facepalm* singaporeans, other than standing around and watching "free shows", please use your brain a bit and not speculate/assume too much?
at the gym i whacked my shoulders and biceps today. wah damn tired.
which leaves me where i am right now. mentally kinda drained, physically also pretty tired. (forgot to mention bank account also kind of drained) well, like i said it's been an action-packed and very fulfilling day so i don't really mind.
hmmm...on another random note, i realized that those facial wash with "soap-free" formulas are a bit too acidic for me and tend to irritate my skin. i guess i have to stick to the "got soap" type.
okok, tired. going to sleep soon. so, until next time, cya and good night!
