[ 488. Saturday ]
Today is really a long day for me... woke up early in the morning just to get to ocs... sianz. Had a little talk by an officer at the ocs audi. Didn't even get a decent tour of safti mi... only a guided bus tour by some retired major i think. Then we were given time to explore the singapore discovery center... only to find more than half the grasshoppers were congregating at the canteen.
After that went down to meet enghow for the IE Singapore tea session... supposedly a scholarship seminar... but struggled to keep awake during the presentation. Kind of rude to doze off. But i realize that i have dead interest in the economic landscape of singapore... much less to do anything about it altogether. The scholar they sent to give a testimony didn't looked that impressive either. I mean, you get someone who had a masters in chemical engineering to sell a scholarship from a ministry related to economics and trade to talk to us? I get no link between the two fields. To quote exact words when asked about the relation, "it's the training of the mind."
A thought came into my mind when i was in the midst of the presentation. Think i shouldn't go into a field which i have a deep interest in... because if one day my obligation to the field totally kills my interest for it, i'll be living a damn meaningless life. Whatever interest i have should be kept at leisure. That is, something which i can pursue or do at OTOT. If i have to go on and do it, whether i like it or not, it will leave me with nothing. On the other hand, if i start of studying or working in a neutral field, there's also a possibility of nurturing the interest as well. That will give me a second passion isn't it? Even if it doesn't, at least i always have something on hand to unwind. Food for thought.
Been contemplating the whole day whether i should write a letter to the forum regarding the jc restructuring of the cirriculum terms. Then again, do i have the time? Met mervin for dinner today and summarized what i would have written if i really wrote that letter.
Well, tomorrow is sunday: book in day. Time flies man. See you guys. =)
