Internship - 时光

Life style while interning is far more NORMAL and healthy compared to that during school term. In the morning, I wake up at 630 and drink Miro/ milk before going for work. This is how I start my day this month. After breakfast, I take a bus to Newton, change for MRT and all the way travel to Woodlands, where Celestica is located. Usually it takes me 130 hour to reach Celestica. However the real traveling time is only 1 hour. The other half an hour is spent on walking from home to bus stop and from MRT to Celestica. Seems I will walk quite a lot and I’m pretty sure that I will not worry for lacking of exercise in next three months. My loyal friend “Channel 93.3” accompanies the half-awakened me all the way from home to work.

The working hour here is a bit strange; one can choose either from 800am to 530pm or from 830am to 600pm (of course I have chosen the latter), with one hour for lunch break. My job is rather brain-cells-killing. So by the time I finish work and travel another 130 hour, I am half dead when I reach home. When I’m happy, I cook dinner-- at least my stomach deserves a well treat after a whole day work. On the days with violin practice, I have to rush towards SMU directly after work and eat my dinner on the way. Then usually I would arrive home at 10pm. Then shower, and probably I would just check emails before jumping on to bed at 10 plus. Bed sweet bed… I love it so much!

Interning is a bit tiring, but after all it has corrected many of my bad habits. I start to have normal sleep-wakeup time again, and I eat breakfast. Haha, of course I have been forced to walk and exercise my lazy muscles every day. My dinner is upgraded from Food court’s oily food to my own cooking… Most importantly, often I feel a sense of achievement when I complete new tasks.

What surprises me is how quick this is. All in a sudden, my timetable has been turned over, without any difficulty. This is something difficult to imagine. Before that, I used to wake up at 12 noon or even 1pm if I have no morning class. Even when I have morning class, I have never wake up earlier than 9am since JC. Hence I didn’t have time to eat breakfast for the whole semester. It was really a bad habit. Moreover, I didn’t exercise, and I sleep very late at about 4am. During school term, and especially the one-week exam preparation period, I have tried very hard to shift my sleeping time forward to before 1am, but the result was simply that I would lie on the bed awake till 4 or 5am. Nowadays, I feel so tired after work that I fall asleep as soon as my head touches the pillow. But this feeling is good, really good.

um, very nice. i think only while you push yourself, you will realise how much time you have and how much things you can do in one day.　
and i really like that feeling as well. keeping busy can really enrich myself...
