Celebrated Mother's Day last sunday and I guess everyone was happy that I treated them to a sumptous meal at Soup's Restaurant. Nice food, nice ambience, kinda slow in serving but overall a nice day out.

Collected my graduation gown at poly in the evening of tuesday. At the very last of minute, one of my colleagues had urgents stuffs for me to complete. Happily agreed cuz I can earn OT pay and he was laughing away that next time he should give me work to do at 6pm instead. It was kinda late when I left the office. Wanted to take a cab, but it's rather ridiculous to take a cab at peak hours especially in central area. Took the train down and flagged a cab around clementi area. The taxi driver was super chatty and hilarious, telling me about his life as a taxi driver, the furore of people eager to own a car, high diesel and petrol prices and of paying fees for his children's further education. Reached there around 7.30pm and I was the last and latest customers. The aunties were friendly though and asked me to take my time. She even helped me to put on my gown and hooked up the buttons. Such motherly touch.

Couldn't believe my eyes when I wore the gown. But of cuz this isn't the official graduation, there's still another one where people's throw their hats and take pictures with their families and relatives. Took the bus home and certain nostalgia came back to me. Late nights of PED in school and stuffs like that. It was a short ride from school back home which brought back many wonderful and sweet memories. Couldn't bear to leave school la~

The admin lady's laptop crashed on friday and could I say it was really like a Friday 13th for both of us. Called HP, JOS and the London IT support team to solve this problem. And the only thing they can ever say was "Your laptop is out of warranty and we could only provide you with assistance through phone" after speaking to them for such a long time. Life without a PC is horrible and boring to the max. Although I was able to sit at the manager's desk, but I couldn't do much work. Sometimes I even wonder why would I even bothered to come work that day. Hopefully the replaced laptop would come soon.

Went to uni welcome tea session and experienced a cultural shock. Practically everyone was from JC and only some were from Poly. K, maybe there are more from poly but I couldn't see them. Perhaps it takes time to break the ice and be accustomed to such a environment. But it is of little wonder that I will feel apprehensive and paranoid at first. Anyway, went to watch What Happened In Vegas and it was a nice and enjoyable movie.
