Enjoy office hours and Mapling

It's my second week working in the OT. Life there has been quite fine. I wake up at 7.30am for my shower and leave my house at 7.49am. Arrive at the interchange at about 7.58am and the bus leaves the interchange at 8.02am (but it leaves most of the time at 8.05am. I'll reach the changing room at 8.18am and change. It'll be 8.20am or so after changing into my gown and I'll wear my headgear aka cap. And i'll start reading the news headlines on the Straits Times till 8.29am. And at 8.30am, I'm out in the theatre. Yes - I time everything. And at about 4.59pm, I'll start washing my hands and by 5pm, I'll be back in the changing room changing into my clothes. I've been wearing just a tshirt and berms to work. And last Tuesday, i was wearing tshirt, berms and slippers (as i was going swimming after work with Lennel).

I'll be taking the 5.08pm bus back to Bedok and by the time I'm home, it's about 5.30pm or so.

And I've been vegetarian for dinner the past week. Yes, i know that it's fattening, but it's cheap, nice and good. $2.50 for 4 ingredients and rice. $3 for 5 ingredients and rice. Cheap right????? I'm actually saving quite a bit now. My total expenditure per day if i do not go out with friends (from home to office and home) is the following: Transport ($0.65 * 2 = $1.30), Lunch $1.50 (but i usually add 1 or 2 ingredients as the set meal only consists of 1 veg and 1 other, be it meat or fish; take it as $3 in total at the most), Dinner $3; In Total = $7.30 (Round it up to $8). See how much i save? Gee, i'm glad!

So what do i do with so much time? Nothing to do so i just surf Trevvy, no more of Channel NewsAsia as i read the entire Straits Times (well, almost.) and check my mails. Then, it's Maplestory - that's what boredom can lead to. I'm now at level 34, 8.74%.

I'll try as much as possible to sleep at 10pm. However, that's not possible most of the time. I do force myself to go to bed before midnight, to ensure that I've at least 7 hours of sleep. Oh ya, and I'm now sleeping in my parents room together with them as the aircon in my room is spoilt. The repairman's coming this Saturday to fix it.

My contract with SingNet's coming to an end. I'm currently on 512kpbs SingNet Broadband and paying $47.25 per month. Should i re-contract for another 2 years and upgrade to 5mbps for $49.95 per month or go for StarHub MaxOnline, for a minimum of 6 months (no contract, minimum period required else a termination fee will be imposed) , 6mbps at$58.80 per month? StarHub however also has a promotion, giving away a Samsung 29" SlimFit TV worth S$1099, but you'll be tied to a 2 year contract. In comparison, SingNet's charging $9.99 per 1mbps while StarHub's charging $9.666 per 1mbps. I'm now stuck.

Think I should go sleep and not let this bother me. I'll let my parents decide for me.

Goodnight peeps!
