Am actually typing this entry out on the words format. Reason behind this particularly peculiar behavior will be explained further. Currently I’m in Singapore Polytechnic’s T4 block waiting so anxiously to get my laptop self certified. As you all may have already know, I am using a macbook. Which might I add is so fucking cool! Sitting in the computer lab among Acer’s 4920 models feeling lost and just a tad bit irritated. The lab attendent looks around and spots ONLY the acer and not my macbook! Apparently I was redirected into this room because the leopard OS doesn’t work as it should when it comes to downloading the software that the school provides. The man said: “ give me a second and I’ll get my stuff to attend to you”. “YOU” meaning all of  5 of us sitting in this lab!

And now after I just raised my hands to said “ excuse me, But I have not been given ANY instructions as to what I should be doing with the software given!”

He had a somewhat shocked expression as if I wasn’t sitting here for the past 20 min staring into blank space.  “ ooh~ You are using a macbook right? (duh) There should be a different set of instructions to downloading the software in the booklet.”

I replied bluntly: “I HAVE read through the booklet and there is no instructions for mac….”

He NOW tells me…to sit tight and he will check for me.

Now redirected to yet another separate sitting area but finally with other mac…but I’m still sitting here without any instructions as to what I should do.

Several hours later, am finally done with the configuration of my com! (and I do mean several!!!) Went home to get bathed and changed before I headed back to school again. Now with the SP Primers at MOBERLY block having their BBQ. Not eating much though. As rare as this is, I have nothing but praise for this ‘club’. It doesn’t make me feel like I’m forced into this, but rather, a part of this little family of theirs! (their own words) It feels somewhat homely in this dimly lit atmosphere as laughter can be heard exploding from various areas of this courtyard. It really is an interesting experience as the seniors themselves seem to be having a good time. Much different from the sec school cheer-leader personalities. It really is a fun day. Its carefree and not much on forced into doing things which people find particularly embarrassing.  

In the transition from secondary school to poly, this ‘club’ provides a more than sufficient bridge to make u feel right at home and less of a deer caught in the head lamps of a truck. Family isn’t just the one’s you are born into. It is also the one you make with your own hands. Those are to cherish for life…

Over all, this is a good day. This evening more than makes up for the less than delightful start of the day. I might just consider to join them as a CCA.

OHHH….and I’m not outed yet…still considering if I should~ hehe
