I'm tired. And i feel warm, in the sense of heat radiating from within my body. I wonder if I'm getting a fever cos of the flu jab i took this morning. Or perhaps it's just a consequence of staying out in the stupid glaring sun all afternoon. It's not that I wanted to. I started cursing and swearing as soon as i stepped out of home but i didn't have a choice cos my sis won tickets for the FUNVEE ride so my family and I decided to play tourists for the day.

We had to go to Singapore Flyer to redeem the tickets and we took a shuttle bus to suntec city and walked the remaining distance. I almost shriveled up and died there and then. I'm sure I'm noticeably tanner after today. I feel so dirty. I mean I think I look damn dirty. I suit the pale look better. Yes I'd rather look like a pig than a wild boar. Go figure.

Anyway the tour was fairly uninteresting, though it's a good thing it wasn't too sunny by the time we settled stuff and got on the roofless bus. One thing I couldn't stand was that the tour guides didn't sound singaporean. One sounded india indian, the other simply had a weird accent. (Isn't it ironic how a lot of the tourguides these days aren't local?) Well we saw smu along the way and she started explaining, "There are 3 universities in Singapore. SMU, NTU, which is Nanyang Technical University and..." By the time i heard the "technical" part I already gave up paying attention. Technical University. Huhh. Seriously. I was surprised why she didn't go "Singapore Manager University" :/

Gah enough bitching. I'm still feeling warm. And we're gonna go back to that same damned place tomorrow for the DUCK tour. Sighs. I'm so not looking forward to becoming roasted pork. Why can't they just provide free shuttle bus service to the flyer??? Why do they have to force us to pay 2bucks for an un-airconditional bus? pui pui pui.

So my boss asked me if i wanted to extend my internship period. HAHAHAHA.

I was still rolling my eyes when my radio practicum teacher (also working in mcorp and we had lunch yesterday) asked if my bosses said anything about an extension. It's so freaky. It's as though my bosses heard the conversation and decided to act on it. Anyway I told my boss i wanted a break and she said young people dont need to rest so much :/ Then i told her the allowance i get as an intern is too measly for me to consider, so she asked me to quote a price which i did (is 7bucks an hour too little?) and she offered me 50bucks a day to work from 10 to 6 (chew: "shouldnt i get 56bucks since i work 8 hours?" boss: "i dont pay for ur lunch hour wad" chewy: "finee.") She went on to talk about how she's already being very generous so i snorted and informed her i get paid more by working as a student assistant in NTU. Seeing she couldnt win the argument, she began guilt-tripping me by saying that all the previous interns gladly extended their internships cos they "重感情". loll. Cue internal roll eyes. I ignored her statement and simply replied that i wanted a break so she offered me a deal: work 3 days a week. =___=;

My boss is so........exasperatingly persistent. Tsk. I suppose the extra cash would be very much appreciated, but i dont want to be tied down by the commitment. Sighs. Since i cant really decide, I'm hoping my ex-boss-but-still-my-boss (cos she got promoted) will forget about it before i leave since she doesnt really hang out at our office anymore.
