Watched The Social Network with DJL yesterday. It's a pretty interesting movie, I kinda liked it, one of the few movies that I watched without those "I love you" things in it. Story is about how this nerd got into lawsuits after founding Facebook. A very cool concept for a movie.

Chinese pray to every single thing, I swear. No surprise there were a lot of people at the 四马路观音妈 temple, but there were also a lot of people praying at the Hindu temple next door, got this auntie open her purse, put it into the 香火炉 and wants to gather all the "holy smoke" into the purse. Hahahaha. Got another uncle put his hands into the 炉 and splash all the smoke on his face siol.

Bugis is an interesting. Haven't seriously walked the 小坡 area (as it was known, 大坡 was Chinatown that side) since last year lah. The food centre with damn nice chwee kueh moved already. Nowadays a lot of China people selling chwee kueh lah, I don't like siol. The chwee kueh they anyhow scoop one, in the end give customer all those 支离破碎 one... Not appealing at all.


Spiral staircases. Not really common nowadays. There are a few behind the flats in Toa Payoh though.


I LOVE COLORS. Don't you?

你老母的2017

You realise my life is basically just Eusoff Hall right? And a bit of school. 所以2017年，我真的需要感谢你吗？ 1. I returned from exchange in Tainan. It was a shithole no doubt, and landed me with really bad 扁桃腺炎 (tonsillitis, where your tonsils gets really rotten and you see yellow shit at the back of your throat). I was so sick of the place that I took the immediate flight back to Singapore in the afternoon after my morning finals paper. Tough life. Okay lah the grades not bad. After all it is supposed to be SU but I am glad I put in enough effort. What to do, the Taiwanese think that Singaporeans are damn perfect so I really need to prove them right. 累死林北了啦。 2. And I didn’t know I can play music. Hahaha. [Okay warning, allow me to haolian a bit can.] So… I tried A Cappella and did a little gig at NJC Talentime this year. Really scary but fun. Okay lah I talk a lot of rubbish but my balls shrink when it comes to 大场面 like this. 3. I ran for Eusoff JCRC P

Intern 十日新人 ​

Just ended a 10-day (actually it’s 11 but whatever, I’m an Arts student so I am assumed to be unable to process numbers beyond 9) internship. It was an amazing process of self-discovery I swear. 带了一群大学新鲜人过来我们公司参加十天的商业竞赛，其间还在民丹岛待了三天。 这短短十天真是充满了发现自我的时刻——发现自己的特长、弱点，种种。 Leading a team of interns is nothing like leading a Hall or a student society, because the stakeholders are very different. You’re no longer just responsible to organisational entities but also responsible to tangible successes, which is basically KPIs like profit or manpower. Multi-tasking have reached a new level for myself. Being someone who is extremely haphazard (and messy), leading a team while staying focused on track on what I am supposed to do already as a financial advisor is pretty challenging. 革命尚未成功，林北仍需努力。非常努力。 Being friends and co-workers at the same time brings your relationship to a whole new level. I guess one of the biggest realisation for myself is my lack of patience. I guess the past few years in Hall
