I am jumping in joy... The confirmation email which said that I am selected for the job of student helper makes my friday brighter... Despite the wet and gloomy weather outside... Though the job only lasts for two days, it is enough to at least pay for some of my spendings that would have to be forked out real soon... Such as printing lecture notes...

The hourly rate is so high that I was worried that I am never going to make it in the first place, as competition is sure to be stiff... Not to mention that I felt that some of the shortlisted students should not have applied... They do not seem to be in need of the money (I would not elaborate why though)... And yet they are robbing others who are depending on securing the job... Maybe the school is to be faulted... Never could understand their mentality or intentions... Why shortlist people who do not have to worry about the expenses when the job was posted to help less well-off students in the first place?

Not that I am going to complain anything else with the job in hand now... I am more than willing to sacrifice another paid leave to attend the training... One that would be paid too... So generous of the school right? Hope that after this maybe the lab staff would like more help for the official lab sessions throughout the semester... Haha...

Very fast the IA is coming to an end... In less than a week's time, I am going to bid my farewells to my supervisors and mentors... I do hope that my grade for this attachment would be good... My supervisor seems to be nice enough with high expectations in place... But all in all, it still boils down to the overall score he had given... Clarified with my tutor that it all really depends on the supervisor... They might be giving 6's or 7's for the list but ultimately when it comes to the final item on the list, they might think that "satisfactory" is more than enough to describe the students... And help in getting them an A grade... But the school needed something more... Something like beyond excellent maybe?! Thus the many B's that was awarded to students...

Haha, but that is going to be my least of worries for now... Currently, I am struggling on getting a testimonial typed up... Which is really killing me... My supervisor had gladly thrown me the job of getting it done up when I posed the request to him... He told me that I could write anything I like... His only role in it is to sign his name... Sounds great right? But if you are in my shoe you would be conflicting over what to do... I am totally loss as to how to even start!! It just feels so wrong for me to comment myself... Too plain a write-up, the testimonial would be as good as any waste paper... But too good of it?? I am feeling myself blushing even at the thought of it... What am I going to do?? Anyone... Just help me please??

Would be going to Malaysia for a short trip over the weekend... Recently, my weekends had been packed with so many events... I was never truly at home to slack... Partial credits to my sister who had been brushing off invitations from my mom with excuses such as examinations and work... So ended up I had to accompany my mom to buy the stuffs she needed... But I am actually quite okay with the planned trip back to Malaysia... At least I could go shop for gifts for my supervisor and mentors... Something which had been bothering me... The many trips that I had made to the shopping malls proved futile over the past weeks... This is because nothing felt appropriate enough... Just hope that I would be able to settle this problem with the upcoming trip...

I am still depressed over not having a copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows... I am currently on the waiting list... Wonder by when could I grab the copy I had reserved??

Haiz~
