Today is my first day attending lesson at BBDC. Luckily, I'm not late for lesson, even though I left my house later than expected. I didn't read the basic theory book before I go (thinking that it would be very easy) and had a hard time answering the MCQ questions on the touch screen during the practice session. I wonder whether it's normal to not be able to answer 280 MCQ questions in 45 mins...I've only completed half *sigh*.
The NDP ticket collection queue last Sunday was surprisingly short and it took less than 3 mins to get my tickets. I always believe that good luck come after bad luck to maintain a balance. Right after the ticket collection, I went over to Suntec City and to my dismay, the walkway was so crowded that I feel like a sardine between two pieces of bread...Think it may be due to the IT Fair and events going on in the mall.
I've made some changes to my US trip itinerary...instead of just visiting Florida, I'll also be going over to Portsmouth to stayover at my best friend's place. It'll be the first time I ever experience winter...hopefully, it won't be so cold that I would fall sick. * Touchwood * However, that also means I'll have to spend $700++ more to change my air tickets...I should have bought the tickets later to save the $150 change penalty fee. Guess I'm just a typical Kiasu Singaporean, haa.
I'm currently waiting for SIM to announce the graduation date....hee, I'm finally a graduate! The two years were really tough...lack of sleep, lots of research and reading, weekends spend completely in the national library or school...finally it's over. Luckily, I graduated before they stop the supply of refreshments. I always look forward to those snacks during teabreak, as some are really tasty and there is always a variety of snacks to choose from.
I finally found a good website to play online mahjong. This website is really cute - www.viwawa.com. I like the cute wawa(s) very much. Xin, you could practice your mahjong skill there. Haa.

Friday the 13th...
Yesterday was Friday the 13th and it was indeed an unlucky day for me...
I made my 1st visit to BBDC alone to enrol as a student and was surprised that female needs to attend much more practical lessons than male, which means higher fees to complete the driving course. As someone working office hours, I could only book for peak-hour slots and it will add up to around $2700 ++. Upon hearing the costs of each items, I quickly search for my mobile phone to calculate the amount. To my dismay, it couldn't be found... I quickly make a number of calls to my office to check whether I have left it at my desk. Many of my 10 cents and 20 cents coins were confiscated by the phone everytime a voice mail is reached, which was so annoying. I felt guilty for hogging the phone as there was a lady waiting behind me. After confirming with a kind colleague that my phone is locked in my drawer, I hurriedly took a bus back to office.
I have recently booked my Orlando air tickets from Northwest Airlines after several comparisons of price, flights timing, airline reputations...I hope there will not be discount in the near future that would made me regret my purchase...Today, I saw from singtelshop.com that the N82 I have just bought has dropped in price by $200!!! Argh...hopefully my bad luck will go away soon.
Tomorrow, I'm going to collect my two NDP tickets at the floating platform (At least something lucky has happened to me...). I hope the queue won't be very long....(keeping my fingers crossed).
