there're so many things to update that i dunno where to start
i guess i will start off with my ECR. anybody got the same timetable as me

after i dismal year 2 campaign, i think i need to buck up in year 3.
i've decided to take something that i like - isorg (info systems and organisations). and more quantitative subjects like CF (corporate finance), msm (management science methods) and mgt econs.
Considering my timetable is already so jialat, and having 2 saturday classes, i hope i dun have to dabao any year 2 subjects to make things worse.

work is ok, but the pay sucks. I'm doing this yellow pages internship for 10 weeks and the pay allowance is quite pathetic. $550/mth is less than my ns allowance. But it's ok cos i learned quite a bit of things, including training tips from gym guru jeremy. The gym there sucks imo, the heaviest dumbbell is 10kg, it doesn't even have a barbell there. I have to use the multi station and i'm not really a fan of gym machines.

i've decided to make a bit of adjustment in my life during this holiday period starting with sleeping habits. No more late nights and i will sleep at least 8 hrs a day if time permits. no point deprieving myself from sleep. i need to be fully recharged when school terms reopens.
I've also made a vow to spend half an hour to 1 hour a day reading, be it reading on the bus or reading before sleep. According to gym guru jeremy, he said he started reading, and within 3 months he finished reading the book, and he learnt more than he've picked up working 3-4 years. I can't agree more especially from my experience of reading some fitness books. My next book shall be 'excel workbook for dummies'.

though i know how to use the basics of excel, i want to know how to type in the codes and stuffs. i guess it would be good to know and add to my repertoire of skills in my resume. After which i will read some finance books.
