I found a job!

Had a phone interview last Wednesday morning, going down to Singapore next Sunday, going to go to the lab on Wednesday. Dunno how long it's going to take to get a Singapore work permit sorted.


The reason I haven't been blogging is that I don't feel inspired enough to do bloody anything when I'm unemployed. Lying around reading novels all day is something I rather enjoy (as my brother said after watching Lina in action, "I want to be a cat when I grow up. Lie around all day and don't do anything."). Any ambitions about doing more writing or drawing or in silico molecular work out the window. It's funny but I work more on my hobbies when I work more at...work, too.


My first younger sister got a job as a social worker - apparently they're in high demand. She's bonded to work in "the little red dot" for three years because she had a scholarship to go to NUS. One of my parents' old friends, a lady who used to teach us how to bake cookies when we were small, was visiting and said:
Aunty: I heard you got a job in Singapore! Very good ah, maybe you can find a Singaporean guy at your workplace. Where are you going to work?
Sis: Woodbridge.

Our brother's gone down to JB and is bumming around, dancing and teaching dance part-time, and learning how to drive.

So it's just FlowerMoonFish and me at home with our parents. She's going to England for a semester, the lucky dog.

The other thing I've been doing is playing travel agent for my soon-to-be-in-laws and their in-laws who are coming to Penang for our wedding in December...
