It tough being a SBS transit bus driver these days

Looking into the limelight of the events happening recently with regards to SBS transit bus drivers, don't you think SBS transit is acting too harsh on bus captains now? Taking the incident this year of the Indian elderly lady who fell from a bus which simply drove off, only laughingly being treated by a driver from a competitor bus company...

CSE Mock Networking Session, Exam Study Week, NAPFA Crumpler pouch

Saw myself in school today again during the study week. The highlight of the day was the networking session at the tulip room in the staff center where we a a mock up networking cocktail session between us and classmates from another.

Radio Talk, Rod Monteiro’s ‘Good Service’ segment in Radio 91.3FM

I remembered going out for run few month ago always listening to my "favourite" radio station Class 95FM, well so as it was. I don't know why it's labelled 'Singapore's favourite English radio station' but I just always felt that something was missing in the shows they have. Then it finally struck me "why am I always toturing myself...

Lose some, Win some, NAPFA Gold

There was like 3 written tests this week for me, namely Communication skills for entrepreneurs (CSE) final test which I personally won't be able to hit good 90+ marks for misreading the last question of the test.

Seoul Garden Class Lunch

Well usually I don't blog about small little lunch events, but considering that this is the first time my class of DME FT/3A/10 is getting together for an official class outing, why not?

Had a chat today with SAA student development officer, Mr Lee Ee Tat with regards to an invitation the SAA sent to selected students for a PSC bonded scholarship.

Transformers, Old Cartoons that deserve Movies, exams sighted

Hadn't had time to talk about transformers the movie which I caught previously on free passes (yea) funny that the movie didn't follow the old child hood memories I had on Optimus (flat front prime mover?), Megatron (walter giant cannon?) and Bubblebee (VW bettle) or just because of their scanner's they can turn into anything they want? Or is...
