i am finally done recruiting my patients for AMS!! yippee!!

Des was so cute, he asked: "So Jacq, so what is going to happen to you now??" LOL>.<

i actually paused and thought "ya, i am redundant now." hahaha.... probably still tag along and hopefully get to do more clinical stuff :)

& i just received my project outline feedback after many many months. tanun received his and so i quickly check my email and there it was. i cant believe the AMS coordinator actually read each of our project outlines and type a page of feedback to us. how tedious. he actually even noticed my spelling mistakes.

he wrote:

"I am amused to note that in two consecutive paragraphs used the word 'standardisation'
and the word 'randomized'. This represents both British and American spelling in the
same document. In Australia we use British spelling, not American spelling. The fact
that Microsoft has the arrogance to assume our spelling is the same as theirs doesn’t
make it correct"

what sarcasm.. ;)

emm, noting tht i shall be more free after finishing recruitment, i decided to get a job. and i so i randomly went online and decided to apply for two tutoring jobs since i took the trouble to type my CV anyways. & lucky me, i got both! yays. one is brainless work at Kumon with small kids, the other is what i may not even be qualified to teach - biology year 12 - which is smiliar to College. i was quite stressed the day before i went for the first bio lesson, i actually dug out all my trinity notes and went through them! since the syllabus for VCE biology is different from Trinity, i went online and frantically searched for all the possible useful websites tht could help me cover up for the fact i haven touched biology since 4 years ago!!! haha..

& i am so glad yesterday went well. both girls were super nice and i felt a sense of accomplishment after teaching and talking for 2 1/2 hrs. haha. i hope they cldnt see how nervous i was. lol. One is Spanish the other girl is Lebanese. how cool is tht? :)

i am just glad for AMS. it has allowed me lots of new opportunities that i have never thought i wld do. :) meeting new pple, talking to pple, being surrounded my pple all the time still gives me a sense of insecurity, but at least i think i can cope better now. & i got my first proper job before 21! :):)

emm, yesterday mel said we sld all write 5 things we wanna accomplish before we turn 30. Tht is 10 years from now...

1) go on a "round the world" trip with my parents :)

2) engaged/married

3) open a bakery or a pharmacy

4) return to singapore with a job after specialisation

5) still be in touch with high school and uni friends - pple i hang out with now:)

ambitious enough?? :)
