what lies beneath

no horror stories and no michelle pfeiffer here but to a certain extent, it could be horror to people who laze around. throughout the hour lunch with trudy and alvin, i've learnt that it's not always a good thing if you manage to get leave easily despite the company being short handed or if your request to be an additional helping hand to another out-posted personnel gets approved easily. many times, it may be good but if you are one who doesn't contribute much to the company, you really ought to sit down and reflect. alvin granted leave to his subordinate readily because he felt that it has no impact on the company's operation. in other words, he doesn't contribute much, hence, it's really just an additional financial burden in some sense.
well, my modules for the coming semester have been confirmed. 2 english modules, philosophy, japanese and computing. the bad thing is, i don't have much choice for some of my tutorials because many of the time slots clashes with others. i had thought i would be able to get thursday off but would have to take tutorial classes on that day. thankfully i can still have thursday off for the first 2 weeks before tutorial begins on the 3rd.
guang did a short sample of a new composition and it's pretty good. though in a mess as a draft and without lyrics, i think it's not bad despite being a bit heavy on the distortion. i'll wait for the finished product then. just feel like finishing the thing for him now that he's in genting. haha...
2 more weeks to the big day. not expecting much results but expecting a lot of hardwork. last week, while i was doing the finger practice, i saw an article placed on the table and it read 不要以为埋头苦干就有出头天. talk about morale boosters.
