Work work work

Just had to do an update today because I gave my first talk yesterday at Mandarin Oriental hotel! It was just for 30min and it was sorta like an interview because I think the organizers got a few physicians in to take a look at our content before choosing one of us for the actual thing. Surprisingly I wasn't nervous, maybe because it was just for such a small group of people, maybe 6 or 7 in total. But I have a feeling I won't get chosen since I overheard them saying it was too much content and they really liked the first physician. Which makes me really curious to know what that physician talked about cuz I wanna know how she gave her talk. I heard them say mine was more fun tho. And also I cleared up some misconceptions such as how mango isn't heaty but is drying.  For me I think I spoke a little too fast since I only had 30min to go through so much content. And also yeah I naturally speak pretty fast. Also my transitions were pretty abrupt so I gotta work on that. I kept forgetting which slide was next and I went too quickly so even though I could see on the laptop which slide was next, I just didn't pay attention to that and kept clicking to the next slide before thinking...Lots to work on! Just wish I had the natural flair that N has for public speaking. But it's alright, I can acquire this skill if I work on it, learn from others and just not take set backs too personally.

Anw some more updates on work life. I can't believe I actually have 4 jobs on hand now. Plus I prep my meals at home so it seems like all my time is taken up and I don't get enough rest. I read in a Nurse's study that women have more difficulty conceiving if they work more than 40h a week. It's not that bad though. Full time job is still pretty chill- honeymoon period- so I don't feel so stressed out. And I really love my first part time job because of the work environment, plus it gives me positive energy and motivation since I do it pretty well. Pay is relatively good too. Second part time job is very flexible and I can drop after taking up the gig so if I feel tired or have any other plans I'm not held up by it. It's quite boring tho, so I don't see myself doing that much of it. My third part time job is tuition and I haven't started doing it- first lesson will be next Fri. I partially regret taking it up cuz it's kinda far so I will waste quite a bit of time travelling (tho I'm really grateful for the downtown line haha). Plus I haven't told A and I forgot that I wouldn't do long term part time jobs that I couldn't drop easily so it's kind of a bad decision. Running behind money haha but I guess it would be good to have just one extra good paying job when A comes over and I have to drop all the other droppable part time jobs.

That's all the updates for now!

A post in a million years

Haha... Ok I'm gonna admit I'm a genius. CAN U BELIEVE IT? I fall sick during the hols=.= My friends, u don't see me missing from sch right? The last time I fell sick was also during the last one week hol... BUT I DID have a GREAT VACATION! LOL notice I use "vacation" instead of holiday. Went to korea for 7 days (5 nights actually). Followed the tour group which was really nice. Not cuz of the ppl, cuz they were quite shy even when I kinda tried to talk to them, but cuz of the tour guide. GOD he was so funny...He has loads of stories to tell and tho he's from a traditional family, he has a "naughty" side. Besides smoking, he rides a motorbike, has 2 piercings (acceptable), a tattoo on his chest (acceptable) and fights (the only thing he admits is his weakness). But he's really knowledgeable. He's from korea's second best uni! Second best really means second best (in terms of marks)- out of 300, u need to get at least 290 to get into the f...

5 Things I Will Commit to When I'm Rich

1. Eat home-cooked meals as much as I can. Eating out/ ordering delivery is the norm in Singapore.  But I'm not your typical Singaporean Wahahahaha. 2. Do not be lazy. Take public transport or carpool if possible. Don't hire a maid. Clean my own house. I love how these  rich people  take public transport. Do they bring along body guards? 3. Do not live in excess. Donate money to charities and causes I believe in.  With great wealth comes great responsibility. Read what  Jeff Bezos , the richest man in the world does for charity. I'm not sure if he is just doing this because of public pressure though. It just sounds like he doesn't really have a cause that he truly believes in. As much as people think they deserve to live in excess due to their hard work, I think it's unnecessary and I hope I never get myself in the plight where I have a huge mansion and a swimming pool on the balcony. I just want to have the ability to earn the money and redistribute ...
