(That was the captacha image that Google asked me to enter when I signed up for a dummy gmail account a few weeks ago for my FYP! LoL)

As of last Friday, my FYP was officially over!!! It was sort of rewarding to see 11 weeks of hard work go into something ‘final’ that you just don’t have to touch anymore. The huge load on my shoulders that just vanished right there and then when the presentation ended (and it did on a good note too – might i add). Fortunately or unfortunately, my project isn’t quite ‘over’ per se, my team got selected as one of the five finalists in the HPB Game Dev Challenge (and yes, HPB as in Health Promotion Board), so it means I probably have to work on it a bit more since we’ll be exhibiting the game this weekend at the Expo during some event there. (Which means my entire long vesak day weekend is probably gonna be burnt at Expo!)

In other news, after a really short 2 day holiday (not quite a holiday since it was saturday and sunday which are normally off anyway!), I started my internship on Monday! I’ll be on ‘orientation’ until next wednesday at NUS before I fly off next Sunday to Boston, where I will be working on a game for the next two and a half months. I’ll need to reach the airport at an unearthly hour of 4am next Sunday and will be flying for almost 30 hours to get to my destination! Oh and sadly, due to the Icelandic volcano, I wont get to fly SQ via London, but will instead be on a 3 stop flight with United crossing the pacific… My gosh! 30 hours without any form of entertainment! (No, United doesn’t have those little TVs in every seat, they only have an overhead projector and an amazing selection of 9 channels of audio!) And whats more, its on a day flight, so I most probably won’t be able to sleep… Oh well… its paid for, so I guess I really shouldn’t be complaining.

All the photos posted here were taken on my handphone, so yea…

One last look at my Post-It-filled desk before I started clearing it out…

Taking out all the Post-its and packing my pillow, markers, jacket, papers, sweets, etc into a plastic bag to bring home… (Feels a bit like I just quit my job! lol)

The very empty and bare desk (and computer too, since I wiped out all my data too) just before I left the office for the last time.

Had ayam penyet with Tommy 2 or 3 weekends ago after he came out from confinement… They had tempe which I hadnt eaten since the Indo trip last year! Anybody else misses the Indo tempe?

A picture I took of my tuition student’s assessment book. Just read the entire sentence if haven’t already… (On that note, I just taught my last tuition lesson on Sunday. I have now officially handed over all my students to their new teachers! Yay!)

I had this Japanese-Thai-Italian Terriyaki Chick Pasta yesterday at the NUS food court…. tasted a lot better than I expected… lol

Anyway, I will probably be posting on this blog pretty often while I’m in Boston, so WATCH THIS SPACE! =]
