Oops. Was trawling Wikipedia for more information on Breaking Dawn after I watched Part 1 of the movie... :/ It got pretty interesting towards the end, so... heeheehee :D
Well, the first part of the movie was very boring to me as a guy, because it involved Bella and Edward and their wedding and all and their honeymoon... And stuff couples do during their honeymoons. I was adverting my eyes at the heavy breathing parts. Okay, there wasn't much to see, but still...
The second part was horrifying mainly because of sound effects of pieces of meat being cut and Bella screaming as her abdomen was cut open (won't go into much detail to avoid spoiling the movie).
The last part was cool because of the relatively cute baby (as all babies are... apart from the part when they're covered in blood. That's purely for the mother to love.) and how Edward's venom caused Bella to regain consciousness at the last moment- as a vampire. So her eyes suddenly flew open and they were nice and red.... Very nice ending! Too bad it was only "part one"... Geez.
Okay, I got distracted and diverted too much from the original aim of this post...
Basically, this job shadowing programme I signed up for involves touring around 3 government agencies (BCA, URA, HDB) and two private firms (DP Architects, Keppel Land) in the first week and a one-week job attachment at a company (excluding Keppel) the week after. So we went touring....
First, I'll talk about my impressions of the people who were on the course with me.
There were 3 Hwa Chong people:
Alicia (nice person, very nice voice)
Jamie (plays badminton, asks very weird but funny questions, likes construction)
and Jun Eng (bowler).
And the rest were from RJ:
Yihua (econs dude, introverted like me, but to a greater extent)
Ju-Yen (sounds like Julian... bowler)
Hui Chiang (sunburnt dude)
Angela (draws really really well. Especially stuff like fashion models. )
Ying Tong (my fellow job attachee at DP Architects)
Jia Wen (very short, very entertaining...)
Yuying (the name of a local secondary school)
Sarah ('nuff said)
Samantha (mm... hi?)
May (mm.. hi??? .__.")
Monday: BCA
I didn't really catch much but generally the only interesting thing was a 3D modelling software called BIM which is to replace CAD, which replaces 2D drawings on big scrolls of paper. I might have a more favourable impression of the place had I stayed to tour the Zero Energy Building there. But I had econs. Sigh. Oh, well.
Tuesday: URA
The 3D models were really fun at first but they got kinda boring after a while. The site tour was interesting, but I didn't really see how it linked back to whatever the purpose of the one-week tour was for.
Wedesday: HDB
I found things a little dry after the initial sharing session, where you had to draw some symbols representing 1. Qualities of a person you are close to/love 2. Qualities of a leader 3. Future career 4. What you see yourself as being 10, 20 years from no on.
So anyway. Some people were sharing with us the career prospects etc... But, you can learn from mistakes and not do that ever gain. And the high class shops are simply wokkkkkkkkkkkkkkolllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll []]......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
(As expected...)
Thursday: DP Architects
I think chatting with architects clarified some of the doubts in my mind. Oh well! Table soccer for some people who may need them,mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
(I supposeyou can tell that I dozed off.....)
And... Well, the place just resonated with me. But I don't know what to make of them when they laughed and said that I had promise as an architect.. Because we were supposed to draw our first impressions of Orchard Central and I came up with something that I thought was a manifestation of my thoughts then.
And after various more interesting things, the tour of DPA was over.
<well... I think I'l continue later. Something tells me that I'm pretty sleepy now.>
