I've also applied for jobs with sumitomo chemicals and exxon mobil and many others.Both sumitomo and exxon mobil have asked me to go for their interview and tests.So far,i went to exxon mobil HQ at harbourfront for the SHL(aptitude) test.It's a test that assess your math skill,logical reasoning and spatial ability to see if one has the ability for the job.It really test you by giving you alot of questions and expecting you to finish in a short time.So in the end,i left many questions unanswered.As for sumitomo,i'll be going for its interview on next monday.

virtual stock exchange(use imaginary money)

It's quite depressing to see the stocks u bought going into the red zone.

I first started buying stock on virtual stock exchange in january to learn the ropes of investing without getting my hands burnt.It was quite exciting initially as I tried to track the prices online.But the excitement wore off as the stocks that i bought keep sliding down and down and down into oblivion(maybe nt oblivion,i'll explain later).So decided not to go look at it anymore.It went on for months until when encouraging news about the stock market bottoming out and rising up stirred me to take a look at my stocks.I was quite surprised by it.This is what i mean:

It did much better than i expected.Given that i bought in january hoping the chinese gov't would spend the stimulus package on solar firms.Some checks are done and it shows that it really happened.I've learnt quite a lot from all this and hopefully i'll b ready to storm the market soon :-)

The time I've been waiting for is inching closer
ORD.The date i've been waiting for.The time when i get my pink IC back.The time i start degree level studies and a fresh start in my life.It's definitely a time to start something new;like maybe do something crazy like skydiving.
As it inches closer,I would remember God's goodness during the past 2 yrs.The way He's given me strength to endure in the tekaning,route marches.The peace he's given me throughout the whole long process of finding a uni course overseas and local.But one thing I'll really remember is when my care group leader lean choo prophesied about my ns time before I came in.Initially,I only remember 1st part when she said she saw a huge icy mountain and it means my ns time will be quite tough on me.So it's pretty depressing to come into ns with that.I remembered the 2nd part when i was in taiwan.That 2nd part was about me not alone in this despite of the huge mountain coming in my way.As i recalled it,my attitude just changed because i realised that i am not alone in my struggle and that I'll overcome it together with Him.So hopefully,I'll b able to take this attitude along wif me as I ORD :-)
ORD LO!!!
