alright, i know i was extremely guarantee plus chop sure at the end of last sem that i was going to do jurisprudence but all things considered i think my mum's right - since she gave me life and she's eaten more salt than i have rice (here we go again, these chinese proverbs) therefore making her wiser, i would imagine, she's probably a better judge of my writing skills than i am and SO i'll probably not do jurisprudence la.
(forgive the long sentence - it's an after effect from having amended so many legal documents. legalese should be accorded status as a language, all by itself)
and you know what, she's right. chloe you're more analytical la. i'm not as fluffy as i thought i was. maybe if i'd been an arts student i'd be that bit more fluffy - actually no, i don't think so. i'm just wired this way lor. we'll see again when it's time to choose modules.
some people call it thinking too much.
anyhow, yesterday saw my last day at ________. i felt a twinge of sadness as i logged off my computer and logged out of my office email account for the last time. no more free khong guan sultana biscuits and tea, no more chats with the tea lady, no more kopping paper towels to use as tissue paper when i neglect to bring a packet out with me. no more lovely view from the window, no more extended lunch breaks, no more zhichao popping into my room at random intervals, declaring himself extremely sleepy and plopping himself down on a chair and promptly falling asleep. no more talking nonsense with him and cherissa when we're supposed to be doing proper work. no more jollibean from the arcade, wanton mee from golden shoe.
the most important thing i've taken away from this internship, however, is that i'm going to try my best to work in a law firm at tanjong pagar.
because amoy street food centre food is way better in terms of quality and cost than all of raffles place combined. the queues at golden shoe are also too insane for words, and amoy street's just nicer somehow - less cramped. plus there are the famous bake_of muffins.
i could always walk from raffles place to amoy street to buy them, burn some of the calories i consume. but i doubt i'll have the time as a lawyer, internships are different. oh well, we'll see. right now i'm thinking of ways for jon to poison/stab ____ without being caught. the things one will do for love, i hope. ok i'm just kidding.

hello chloe, this is esther frm jireh :] somehow i linked here from facebook. after reading your post, i have to say that:
1. jurisprudence is analytical and not easy. you prob need good writing skills to do well, but i don't think it's fluffy! anyway it trained my mind and made me smarter, so even if you get a C frm the module, it's worth it.
2. amoy st rocks. lee & lee is right next to amoy st :]
