Today's 15th April 2005. And so...it's finally over...
Yeah...attachment's over. And the 3 years of polytechnic education, which I embarked on in 2002, has almost officially come to and end too.
Surprisingly, I couldn't fall asleep on the long train rides at the start and end of the day. Nothing much happened during my last day, and I even managed to finish reading Dan Brown's Angels and Demons, which I bought last night, in the office today.
I have to say...it's quite a sad feeling leaving the company after a fond 3-month stay. The people...the food at the coffeeshops...the work...I think I'll probably miss waking up at 6:30am everyday! And the long train trips too.
But everything has to come to an end. Though no matter how hard I prepare myself sometimes, I'm still often caught off-guard when the inevitable happens.
But I'm still gonna have to go back for another day, possibly end of the month, to collect my last pay cheque. My supervisor told me to inform them in advance so that we can all go out and have a meal after work. And it's their treat! So sweet of them right? Haiz...gonna miss them...
Perhaps that's why the internship is often referred to as an attachment. After considerable time at the company, I do feel somewhat attached to it.
And yeah...the internship also signals the end of my 3-year affiliation with SP. And all the people I got to know during the last 3 years. There may be a few whom I'd gladly end my affiliations with, but the huge majority...well...I could only say that it's a pity that time flew by so fast, or that I got to know them too late.
Last night I've finally got my enlistment letter. September 8th at 8:30am. It's still like 5 months away, which is a pretty long time. If I look at it positively, I can find some part-time job, earn some keep. On the downside, it's hard to rot for 5 months, especially when so many people I know would already be in army by then.
Oh yeah...6 more weeks to her birthday. I still haven't get started with what I wanted to give her this year. Perhaps these few weeks I'll have quite some time to make it right. Probably the last time I'll ever get to give her something.
I really hate time.
And I really hate this part of me. For trying to avoid the inevitable when there is no chance of success. After almost 20 years, it's difficult to imagine why I juz couldn't learn to get up and move on.
Maybe one day I would come to my senses. But only time will tell.
Did I juz mention that I hate time?
So to all my graduating friends...hope that as far as possible, we can still keep in touch. And I wish you all the success you may achieve once we embark on the next phase in our lives. Take care everyone. *sMiLeZ*

Welcome to Cheng-xun's Blog. Call me CX if you want. I think that saves loads of trouble for people. Graduated with a Diploma in Media & Communication from SP, currently serving (quite reluctantly) the nation and hoping to go to Australia for further studies one day.
[[My Adores]]
I love music and I love food. I love writing but I'm not that good. Soccer is my first love for a long time, but it can't take me through the rest of my life. Would you? *winkz*
[[My Detests]]
Save the hate you have for this world, and you'll probably find it a much better place to live in.
