Was brought to this ice cream parlour along Bukit Timah, and given a treat! The place was crowded, with mainly teens. A good place to hang out after school.
There is really interesting flavours such as teh terik, horlicks, burnt caramel and nutella. I chose pulau hitam as it's been years since I last had that dessert. Yum on the rock, I say!
Had this really satisfied smile on my face, which was commented upon. Well, let's just say I'm easily contented nowadays.
Headed over to Maccas for a much needed dose of nuggets, before heading off to Queensway for some gift hunting, and then to Bing Yao's barbeque.
It was great seeing so many people, after so long. Majority of them was last seen during Secondary school days. Was a little awkward at first, but then conversations fell into place and everyone was having a ball. Especially with this really hyper dog which went around trying to hump the guys! What a sight.
The stereotypical division of guys into engineering course, and girls into business course is exactly applied to this group of friends. Reflecting upon it, it seems so surreal that I'll be undertaking a health science course. Something so different from finance.
Just the other day, I sent some University documents to CS for printing. He went through them and asked:
Is it difficult to get into your course?
Why do you ask?
I feel like applying for it.
Why? You've already got an offer from RMIT.
For fun, because School of Medicine sounds so cool.
. . . . .
It sounds prestigious to be in courses such as Medicine or Law, but I have come to realise that there is nothing to be envious about. No doubt, people in such courses are to be admired for their exceptional intelligence, but the glamour and glitz appointed to these titles are overrated.
Graduate friends from Medicine and Law commented that other than having to work really hard and putting in a great deal of effort, all things else are just magnified and overrated.
We adorn such exterior to those careers, that we sometimes blind ourselves to the true nature of them. The ability of the doctors to cure people of illnesses, and that of the lawyers in representing the innocents and getting them acquitted.
Oh how we tend to forget, when the evil claws of Hollywood worthy glam and glitz touch us.
