We later went down to the Comfort Driving building in Eunos. And I finally signed up for a driver's lisence! This is so exciting. My first practical lesson would be on the 16th of Jan.
Accompanied Dorcas to help in the spreading of the gospel to old folks at the void deck of a HDB flat in Eunos later in the afternoon. Though I was much more of a manual worker who stood around to 'listen'( U see, they were all conversing in Hokkien and I know nuts about it. Ironically, it's even my dialect) and carry things, it was definitely an experience. The folks there were all so cute and nice. It was kind of a feel-good factor thing they gave as I helped. Even though this wasn't the first time I dealt with old folks, it was still something new. Dorcas's father, a pastor, was ever so nice and ever so patient like he has always been from the time I knew him as a primary school kid. That long..Yeah.
They later brought me to the Metro warehouse sale at Expo. Hall 2 I think. They bought a lovely long-sleeved shirt for me and later paid for my dinner..As always. They are just so nice! Aha...Adopt me!!
nay..I still feel things now feels good just the way they are...And I hope it will always be.

Job search and Driving Enrollment
Today woke really early and met up with Dorcas at 8.30am just for the sake of looking for a temp job. We visited 3 agencies (1 in Tampines and 2 others in Bugis). It all went pretty well. Career search offered me a job in prudential in the finance department. You can say I was pretty blessed cause the job offer only just came in before I went in to apply. So they called me in the evening as I was shortlisted and requested for me to send down my resume through e-mail. There was this agency( better not toreveal which), that exploited the customers personal information! The person who interviewed me kept smsing personal stuff to me lah! haiz... Why do I meet these kind of people so often. I really was kind of scared even though at the back of my mind I knew that it was just messages. Maybe for more open peeps, just meet a new friend right? But from the way I see it, it just isn't right!
