Resolutions

Maybe one needs to start somewhere. There’s several things I want to do this year. Since Mr. Wang has advised that any goals must first be set with achievable action, I shall include the first step towards these goals below.

• Pass with Merit
  I’ll be taking non-SC modules this semesters. I’m thinking whether I should just do an extra module just so I can do something SC related before I graduate. I’m eyeing Qualitative Inquiry… I wish I can do something by Dr. Raffin again (can’t since she’s with the exposure module this semester) but Qa is a subject matter I think that will nicely complement the Qn I did last semester (and anyway, I quite like Dr. N from Deviance too!)

  Action plan: Attend all lectures (wake up at least an hour prior to lecture time; come up with my own attendence chart). Take the time every evening after 8pm to read the following week’s readings or do any necessary assignments. Therefore, set alarm for 20 00h everyday. Go tomorrow to the library to print readings that are out already.

• Organize the training project(s)
  This one of the last projects I’ll be doing in CBLC so I hope that everything goes well. Gah, going to miss this club. I can’t believe it’s going to be 3 years already. T_T Sigh. I’m just getting older and older.

  Action plan: Confirm booking of room. Contact Christian. Proposal???

• Find a Job
  I’d really like it if I could get a job I can love but failing that, a job that offers the opportunities to progress somewhere I’d like. WTH would that be? It’s all very vague at the moment but I shall endeavour to unvague it before the end of the year. What I can do, I suppose is to take a good look at the job market and see where I might fit. So that’s my aim during this semester bah. Starting by sending off some resumes or the like would also be a start. Attending career fairs too?

  Action plan: Attend Career Fair on the 21st and/or 22nd Feb. Write my resume. Get my CCA card signed (particularly since I’ve LOST the damn thing, sigh). File for graduation in GAPS. Ask huey for help?

• Get my own Place
  This seems to be a difficult one… I really don’t want to stay home again after all these years away. I mean, I like my parents and all but I guess I just don’t want to return to before, you know? I really cherish being on my own… At the very least, I would want to see going back home as a temporary arrangement. God, this is one of the things I hate about Singapore, it is so anti-singles here. Sigh. Must plot my way through this. My resolution would be to find the means to get my own place by the end of the year. Since I have no idea how I will accomplish this, my goal at the moment would be to explore my options.

  Action plan: Talk to my parents. Talk to other people. Learn more about renting/housing options.

• Find companionship, boyfriend or whatever
  This one seems a bit tricky. I don’t have anyone I particularly like at the moment (sigh, no targets, right?) but having met KK last year has been a great salve to my soul. It’s that great feeling like you’re just ready for something new. So new guy whoever you are out there, watch out! Bwahahahahaha!

  Action plan: Plan more activities to meet new people (even better if they’re like-minded bah). Improve grooming. Actually, I’m not too sure what to do, maybe one of you out there can offer some help, hahah.

ashke can do it! Go, go, go!
