Orhhhhh so tired. Juz back from town. Went to orchard library. Before that went down to M L consulting to collect my cheque. To my dismay, they told me the cheque is not ready and that i have to come down next wednesday. Hmm i tried calling them before i came down but i couldn't get thru the line coz it was engaged and engaged. Wasted trip i guess.
The town was in a dearth of ppl today. That's the good thing about going to town on weekdays morning. Went herens HMV, listening to Tori Amos new album, Beekeeper.
Talking about that Beekeeper album. Tori Amos got this unconventional way of singing song. This is of coz a verisimilitude to Sarah Mclachlan's soothing new age voice. However, Tori Amos sounds a bit different in her own persona of a very gypsy-like, celtic diva.
I stood there listening to all the enchanting tracks, including Sleeping with butterflies, and the duet with Damien Rice ( he sounds horrible in this duet)...
All the 19 or so tracks carry different flavours and teleports the listeners to various entities in an ultimate breathtaking audio sensation. It's amazing how i can convince myself not to buy it. Well i did it.
Orchard library as usual always have books that i wan. Borrowed a CSI novel, and a c++ programming book. Sitting down on a wooden platform to peruse the programming book.
The thing about me is i like to go all the way to town to juz get something, look at something, then suddenly juz feel like going back home. Dun ask me why. Not as if eunos to town is that far anyway. Nothing of a big deal. But probably it is equivalent to being BO LIAO? May be.
Gona take a nap. Study for basic theory later. Yes laugh all u wan. My third basic theory test.
My dad got for me this senior consultant from temp-team ptd ltd. I email her a brief resume and she called quite fast yesterday evening, acquiring some info i have forgotten to include. As usual ppl in this line is amicable, making every single effort to sound nice. Nothing impressive. She said if i am comfortable with sales job. I replied with an unequivocal "no". Road-shows? No way. She said no prob. Then she mentioned about some manual labour stuff and i said that i am absolutely fine with that, as well as data entry. She actually ask me if 6 or more per hour is fine. OF COZ. Comparing that to ML consulting, 4.5, everything is ok. Curse me all u wan ML. -_-
