Hey Guys!
My last day with the company was yesterday so today's the first day when I'm officially unemployed! Yeah! Alvin sms me early this morning to congratulate me on a brand new start, but like Wendy truly understands, I*'m dead broke!!! Hey Wendy you're truly scaring me. They didn't pay me on the 21st even tho I was still with e company, and it's abt $2k as there was a Lon and Zrh IFA + basic pay, and now it seems like I'll never get it, plus they owe me money for the 7 off days I didn't take. Sickening... So did they say when they're gonna pay you. I agree with you abt that idiot guy at admin. Wait until he's retrenched then he'll understand the dire need for money. You're looking for a job? I thought you're teaching already? Well NUS has this stupid new system that's 3 yrs but direct honours, and it's very xiong as it's min 5 modules per sem, and I think they're mad. I'm torn between going back and continuing from where I left off or starting anew (fees are near $6k per yr now as it's increasing every yr. Idiotic) coz I will get direct honours if I start anew. Oh well... I am kindda excited, but I'm more excited abt the billions of things I want to do these 6 months before I go back to school. Rhonda want to go shopping in HK with me during their summer season of clothes?! I've bummed Jan away already and it'll be 3 whole yrs before I can get a 6 mth break like this, so I really need to treasure it and do everything, but I have so many things I want to do I end up not knowing what to do first and in the end, I don't do anything. Stupid right... But now that I'm officially unemployed, it's a brand new start so I'm happy... Masters in US sounds better honestly. Go for it and I'm free to meet up whenever you are!

Love, Mag

Hi Mag,I thot yr last day was like sometime ago.Anyway,they definitely wun pay u so fast and I really give up,BUT they'd still and better pay us,otherwise we can go sue them.U gotta find other means to earn $ and cannot rely on them to pay u.Wah....NUS got direct hons...i should hv gone in later! it's ok lah :),5 sem is still not that bad,at least u dun hv to stay for an extra yr.but 3 yrs will really fly b4 u know it..i opted for relief teaching and not the one bonded by NIE and until now got no calls coz i guess got too many teachers already.in the meantime i HAVE to find a job,oh well..maybe i'll just go and give my life to the teaching ministry and lead a simple life...or shouldn't i? :P say,when our classmates hv their JCL enhancement,we 2 can go back too..:) u still hv the pass right? then can hv class gathering..:) so mag,yup,really go enjoy this 6 months and do whatever u've never done b4 and hv a wonderful time.See ya,WENDY
