3 years of pre-school education..
6 years of primary education..
4 years of secondary education..
2 years of pre-university education..
3 years of university education..
So after completing 18 years of education, I am unsure of what to do..
I don't know what these 18 years have prepared me for..
I learned some stuffs along the way.. Textbooks or not..
But there are also stuffs that I still don't know about.. Simple things..
I feel that I still don't know what love is..
I don't know what is success and what it means to me..
I don't know what I'd like to do as a career or job..

Adapted from "
A Short History of Nearly Everything" by Bill Bryson:
"To begin with, for you to be here now trillions of drifting atoms had somehow to assemble in an intricate and curiously obliging manner to create you....the atoms that so librally and congenially flock together to form living things on Earth are exactly the same atoms that decline to do it elsewhere. Whatever else it may be, at the level of chemistry life is fantasically mundane: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, a little of calcium, a dash of sulphur, a light dusting of other very ordinary elements - nothing you wouldn't find in any ordinary pharmacy - and that's all you need. The only thing special about the atoms that make you is that they make you. That is, of course, the miracle of life."
I like how everything is simply described in terms of atoms.. So chemistry.. =)

Yesterday, it seemed like I went on a shopping spree!
I bought a few things.. Spent quite a bit..
But it's not my money!! Hahaha..
I didn't go to town actually.. Just AMK hub.. Lol..
I bought a pair of black covered shoes at Fairprice for $19.90..
I bought two brightly coloured bras at two for $28 at some shop outside..
I also bought a white collared blouse at G2000 for freaking $49..
That was a shock at the cashier.. Haha..
Because initially I thought I saw $40..
I think my eyesight is starting to fail me..
Ya.. So I spent more than $100 in a day at a heartland mall.. Zzz..
Erm.. I think that's quite a lot compared to my usual spending habits..
Ahhhh!! I still haven't landed myself with a job yet.. Zzz..
