It doesnt help when my friends just started holidays, doesnt help when love is on 2 weeks' of block leave after his commissioning parade, doesnt help at all. Just 3months plus to go, that's what everyone tells me. Yes, 3 months plus of stress and hardwork before i can graduate. I can't wait.

and im so worried about results coming out on fri. 2 weeks of hols are not enough definitely...
attended birthdays, went partying, facials, tuitions, had kushinbo after 10million years of craving but it was not up to expectations. =(
i wonder what exactly does the word 'qualifications' mean? came across few people and incidents which made me ponder over this. and im still puzzled by it.
Such as this manager R working at Suntec's Sizzler, nurse and instructors at O B S, doctors of this C hospital, a lecturer of mine, mr blink of our country's _ force. Are they qualified to be in their positions? i was totally disgusted by ALL of their behaviours and i really wonder, who put them in their positions? Are they qualified enough to be there?
Incident no.1:
I had Sizzler some time back and my group of four was puzzled by why our neighbour was served a jug of drink which was not listed on the menu while we had glasses of the exact same drink. It was totally not worth the money thus we asked the waitress if we could change ours to a jug instead. She brought the manager after what seemed like forever and this manager actually bargained with us. He was unable to speak in proper English, had zero knowledge of service recovery and training skills. How can someone with zero customer service knowledge be a manager of the restaurant?
Incident no.2:
J had a knee-jerk during an expedition at O B S and the swell on the knee was more than evident. nurse cleared J and told him to continue with his kayaking the next day. J's knee was so painful and he went to see instructor and she said since nurse cleared, then he must go. Yes, kayak with a knee all swelled up. J's friends were all asking him not to go to the expedition as they have eyes to see that the injury was rather serious. And for those who had kayak experience, one should know that capsizing is very common. So J asked instructor what if the kayak capsize and she replied, "then don't capsize!" Qualified nurse/instructor?
"Each trainer is equipped with the skills and tools to ensure the safety of all participants". (Quoted from http://www.obs.pa.gov.sg/1145960592565/1150181215773.html) and i disagree with that sentence. So will they be compensating J with a proper knee if anything happens? Are they really well-trained? I certainly question that.
J was OOC, scored a big fat zero just because he had serious knee injury and missed the LAST expedition. J worked hard, took part in ALL activities for 12 consecutive days despite struggling due to the ache in the wisdom tooth and just because J missed 4 days. OUT J went.
Incident no.3:
L went to the A & E of C _ H and the doctor looked at L and told L not to "cao keng" as L was unable to stretch out the leg due to severe pain. Doc A told L not to drama and immediately gave 2 weeks' MC to L without further examination. No x-ray or medication. She fixed an appointment for him with specialist but that would be few weeks' later. Perhaps she wants to see L limping and aggrevate the injury further. Qualified?
I came across a friend's blog and her eye was so painful that she went to the same hospital. She told the nurses there that her eye was so painful and they asked her, "just tell me whatyou want?" she had an eye abrasion. Sometimes i wonder, do they behave this way because the patients are not their relatives and they do not give a damn about their survival?
Incident no.4:
Lecturer K is very experienced in his _ _ industry but teach? I saw his efforts in trying but it was a chore to classmates and i. We had no directions in exam and projects. And i wonder if i can pass this particular module.
2 trimesters ago, Lecturer S was horrid in his teaching as well. From my own opinion, i felt that S did not try at all but he was really good at scraping it through. Oh and after that, he disappeared with our projects' grades. Wow.
Incident no.5:
Mr blink of S _ F knows nothing about being impartial. Being in his position, having that rank on his shoulder, he is not concerned with others at all. He picks on people. He handles issues on subjective manner, not objective. I though people in his position in such a prestigious organization, he ought to treat people in a fair manner. I really don't want to pay taxes to pay such a person.
Qualifications? Tell me about it.
Precious you
