Things I have been doing...
Monday...
Went down to VJ in the morning to interview the NE coordinator for another public policy paper of mine. (It turns out Mrs Christine Ang is really Ms Christine Choo, who taught me lit 4 years ago. She has since gotten married and is now pregnant.)
Went for driving lessons in the afternoon. Horrendous. After four years of lessons, I still cannot control the damn clutch. I think I've got a retarded left foot.
Went to Sakae Sushi to treat myself after a long, draining day of travelling all over the place. Salmon sashimi, fried tofu, unagi sushi, tofu-skin sushi, scallop-skin sushi + green tea. Yum.
Tuesday...
Went for SID talk. It was good, the money's good, the job sounds good. Very pro-government. That's no surprise. Everyone in there is a good citizen of Singapore. Everyone in there loves their job and they all get 'high' from working or so they say. I signed up for the written exercise. Better not say too much. (ps: We got this IQ puzzle thing as a door gift. That was pretty neat. Except that our entire table - me, Wayne, Mel D, Ian and Mel Ngo kept playing with the thing before the seminar started. I think we looked like the most anti-social group of the lot. Hah.) By the way, I was very impressed with the attitude and disposition of the representatives. I was really! This isn't just because I think someone's listening in dammit. Which, incidentally, I do.
Wednesday...
Went for lesson again today. Better but still no confidence. I wanted to keep on practising all the routines until I'd gotten over my phobia but my instructor didn't think there was a point to hold me at this point, without going ahead for the test. He knew that what I have is a psychological problem and not so much of a psycho-motor one.

Everyday...
Reading stupid IR readings for the quiz this Friday. Whoever heard of having a four-day break?! What difference does that one extra day make? It's bloody retarded.
Writing my PA paper on theories of motivation...too slowly!
Worrying about the second part of above-mentioned paper, that requires a case study of a public organization or sector in a Southeast Asian country. I have no case study!
I finally got Wayne to ask Uncle Mark for an interview. I was desperate.
