Anyway, went to job fairs on Tuesday (TOC) and yesterday (BOC). My first time going to a job fair, so I didn't really quite know what to expect. But now I know that looking for a job/internship isn't that easy. Talked to recruiters from a few companies, but I also didn't really know what to say. Oh well. Something positive I will take is that it was a learning experience.
I think this week has so far been surprisingly okay for me. It has been a pretty busy week, but I'm still managing, which is good I guess. And I think I've been slightly more disciplined, both in doing my quiet time, doing my work and sleeping early. I'm really trying to avoid doing last-minute work now, and so far, so good. Well, I did do my econs homework rather last-minute yesterday, and that feeling sucks. So yeah haha.
Went for paintball on Sunday and it was quite an experience. But didn't expect it to be so army-like. If you know what I mean. I basically just camped and didn't run around like the guys did. Lasted quite a while, except for the last round, when I was the second one out. And I actually survived 1 round! But yeah..it's painful! I was expecting it to be very painful, so maybe that's why it didn't really feel that painful to me. I have a bruise though on my arm. Luckily, it's small..
My stand-in teacher for my finance course has a rather wry sense of humor. We were discussing lookback options the other day. He said he regretted not teaching us some stuff that would be useful for lookback options, then he said, "But we must always look forward and not look back". Like duh!
Looking forward and not looking back. I guess one has to strike a balance somewhere. I mean it's okay to look back at the past, whether it be reminiscing of the good old days or regretting what one has done in the past, but you know, I don't like to get sucked in too much into past memories. After all, no matter how much you want to relive the good old times, they are already in the past, and will, sadly, always remain as mere memories. Maybe I'm just being cynical here. But I'm sure that the present and the future will always have their share of good times to come too (and the bad times as well). I do cherish the past, but I know that it is not realistic to keep living in the past. Ah well.
Meanwhile, I shall get back to doing probability. SIGH!! (But it's almost the end of the week, so there!)
Jesus you are my best friend
And you will always be
Nothing will ever change that
