Drove past ECP on the way to school just now (from Joey's school) and passed by the whole array of PSA, Raffles Place, City Hall. A few things I thought while passing by...
1. I really have no idea how PSA is so efficient. There are SO MANY containers and well, they need to really know where each container is! I suppose now everything's computerized so it's all good. Makes me think of the Chinese Businesses in Singapore module that I took last sem. Many people think I'm nuts to take all these weirdo modules but I do think I've gained a lot of general knowledge about things happening in Singapore (and the world) that they probably haven't gotten by choosing modules that will get them their As. I didn't take any of these sort of modules in NUS High, being too sheltered by all the science and math. Sometimes I feel that it isn't so good, to just learn about one kind of academics. The people in NUS High lack knowledge about what's going on around them, and they don't even need to study all these things since there's no GP. So my nation building and U.S. History mods this sem are really really useful, even though I'm probably not gonna get an A for them. But hey, it's worth it.
2. I quite like the whole Raffles place work scene. Many OLs walking around, looking all the same, all cliched and stuff, but oh wells, it's classic isn't it? It's everyone's definition of "the working world" when they're young. And so, I may decide to do a short stint there some time in my life. Some elusive time, perhaps? But some time nonetheless. I'm not the kind that likes desk-bound jobs anyway.
I have weird non-linked thoughts. Hahaha. I'm gonna take Korean.
