Finally helped a friend to book air tickets. 4 hours of work! typing, transfering my cash around.
This is my very first time booking air tickets online. Since she did not have a visa card, thus she asked for help to settle the bill.
Booking tickets can be such a hassle when they are many details to be filled in. Since they had limited session time of 9 minutes, I had to quickly match each persons details to their repective textboxes. There were many times where I had to retype the entries.
Why does the price fluctuate after i book a single ticket. The next ticket that I booked cost a almost 60 over bucks more expensive than the previous one. Same flight, side by side seats and yet that much different of a price. Why is there such an inconsistency. Its not like as if the plane is full.
One thing that is efficient is the billing. Lol, when it comes to money issues, its exceptionally fast. Makes me worry what happen if i lost my credit card and handphone. All my cash would simply be gone.
Im feeling a bit tired now, but still cant sleep cause my hair is still wet. The problems of having longer hair now.

12th Entry: Worst day of my life.
Just like the shares which i have bought dipping a brand new low. I had one of the worst day of my life.
The first half of the day was alright but things starts to screw up in the afternoon.
My shares hit to a new low of 1.91, crazy prices. It seems to be on a free fall mode right now, wonder whats affecting the price?
Next i dropped my laptop right smack on the floor. I was so engrossed in the discussion that i tripped over my own laptop power cable. After the traumatic fall, the laptop failed to start up. From that very moment, i knew that the hard disk was confirm gone. All my stuff, sch work from last sem and this sem, pictures, games and office 2010! My copy and cd key of office are kept in it.
And so i was in a dilema, leave the group and head to the customer center. Would it be very selfish? In the end the emotions got the better of me and i decided i just had to make the trip down since i wouldnt be free tml and Sunday the place is closed. This laptop was something i fully paid for and very precious to me. The data too.
Along the way i turned off the wrong adapter and got my friend Sandra's laptop to force shut down. I rushed towards the service center at acer. Got to the wrong station at habourfront, should have stopped at Otraum. Took the train back again and took straight to jurong. As i got down, i ran towards the service center since it was like 15 mins before the service center is closed. Along the way it rained too. I had no direct path and had to climb through and I almost fell in the end. After making the trip to the service center, the consultant said that the data would be wiped out! He recommened me a data recovery center and i knew that it would simply be too expensive. Thus i left the laptop and could only get it back on Monday.
After getting the check done, i had to rushed back to the meeting scene. The rain got heavier and although with the use of umbrella, i was all drenched, especially on fron part. My whole lower body and shoes were soaked wet.
As I tired to flag the bus at the bustop, i relised that there was a direct bus to school. As i did not open my umbrellas, i tried to hop on to the bus, in the end i tripped and fell beacuase my shoes are losing it grip on fiction. Wet + Pain

11th Entry: Once in a blue moon.
Dear Diary,
Sorry for neglecting you. Thats for close two months to be more specific. So what have changed in these two months? Time has passed as fast as usual and i am still pretty much the same. Holidays came and left in a whirlwind and the new school term resumed. I guess nothing much has changed for me.
The highlights of the past two months would be:
1. Trip to Genting with my Family
2. Class Chalet
The trip to genting was a short one but its something that i have always wanted. Given the time and money, I would definately like to bring my entire family around the world. Its a dream for me, something that is hard to achieve given the school commitments and financial constraints. I just want to do so before my parents get old.
The class chalet was kinda unexpected. Something that came out of nowhere. Chalets can be said to be an essence of my life. Ever since the polytechnic days, I have been having frequent chalets. Its something that i have always look forward to, something that got me through the tough times in school. Class gatherings are certainly rare opportunities in the university life. Everyone seems to be always busy and are far apart from each other. Seeing everyone gathering for a short period of time, playing games and having bbq was a sight to behold. A sight that is not seen since the orientation days.
Its the third week of school and my mind is still wandering everwhere else other than school work. Will it ever wonder back? I don't know. We shall see.
Yours Sincerely,
Aaron

10th Entry: A new beginning
Yea, promised myself to come back to write and here I am.
Exams are done and dusted. Its pretty amazing how i thought it was the end of the world just 3 weeks ago.
3 weeks ago i thought time was running out with the number days remaining till the exams.
The feeling was sensational, being a last minute worker, i never felt so lost before. Failing which was a distant thought in the past, somethign more of a relative impossibility became apparently realistic this time round.
And so the exams came and left, I didn't do too well and deep down inside i still feel that there was more that i could do in the first place. I am capable of more and I should not underestimate myself too much. I am capable of more and i need to realise that. Thus i kinda made a pact with myself, to work hard from the start next semester and not at the end.
OM was the last paper, the only paper which I dreaded the most but still somehow feel that there should be potential for scoring. I won't go about with the "if onlys" but I knew it was a good lesson.
Had an outing yesterday with the majority of the class. Lunch Movie Pool Dinner. Been a very long time since i headed out with a large group. After the paper I was still a little shell-shocked and drained from the depravation of proper sleep. Nonetheless i still enjoyed myself totally. Wishing for more outing with the class after this rare opportunity to gather.
It was amazing how I was still calculating some of the numbers in OM while watching Harry Potter. I found out where was my error! Many might think, why should one still brood over what has passed? My answer would be that I am devoted to what I do and when theres a mistake, I will try my best to seek it out, realise it and learn from it.
Feel kinda lost right now, don't know what I should do on the dawn of December. Should find some self-improvement stuff to do and try to go for a good work out.
At least its soccer later!
