Answer the following five questions in your weblog or journal.
1. How are you planning to spend the summer [winter]?
Well let’s see, I’ve got a short semester break coming up in mid August for about 2 weeks, and then a longer break (up to 3 months) in October or so… am planning a short trip to Langkawi perhaps or even to Singapore - tho the Great Singapore Sale will be over by then… oh well! Let’s see how it goes for me…
Besides a much deserved trip, I should be busy with a few things I have in plan to do… will disclose more when the time is right…
2. What was your first summer job?
Hmm, never really had a job until I finished high school, in which I took up an offer to be an IT intern at a local small IT college, which my friend’s dad own… learned quite a lot (about the good and the bad stuff anyway) and then moved on to my 2nd, then 3rd, then finally ended up in ASTRO doing IT auditing before falling back to pursuing my tertiary education in full-time… sorry to dissapoint, but nope, no serving coffee or McDonald’s or even selling lemonade (more like burger or pisang goreng
3. If you could go anywhere this summer [winter], where would you go?
AUSTRALIA! Oh wait… most my buddies and Tse Wei (my godsister) will be back so no point going there… hmm, UK? Perhaps… can go visit my fifth uncle’s who’s doing his PhD (permanent head damage) or maybe go visit around Germany as well… anyone gonna sponsor me?
4. What was your worst vacation ever?
That has to be for sure my trip to Penang last December… not so much of the vacation sucked, but rather what happened after the vacation… don’t bother asking me what…
5. What was your best vacation ever?
Hmm.. this is a tough one… don’t quite travel by myself… but is my business trip considered a vacation? To me I think it does… after all, I flew to Singapore for free (first time going alone and it was like after 15 years since I last visited Spore) and got free accomodation at 4-star hotel, got daily allowance summore… met a whole bunch of nice people at the office HQ in Spore and quite nice… I guess that has to be it!
