Second interview

Suprisingly, I was called up for the second round of A*STAR interview. I thought I had flunked the first round but apparently, my performance was still acceptable. The second round of interview was easier than the first round. There were only 3 interviewers and not so many questions were asked. In total it took only around 10 to 15 mins. The first question the chairman asked me was "Is your father still driving a school bus?". I replied yes and he said "Then he must be very proud of you." In fact, up till now I still have achieved nothing until the results are out next thursday. Im not one to count the chickens before they are hatched. The interviews are more or less done but the next thing I have to do is the dreaded GRE. I haven't even started studying for it and I have to take it before the next term starts. Im already left with so little time after coming back from work and I don't feel like sacrificing my sleeping time. So I guess the next option is to utilise my weekends. Haizzz...... Why do I still have so many things to do even after my exams are over? The GRE is not easy from what I hear. I seriously doubt that I can achieve the required score with just one month of studying. If I can't, I may have to postpone my studies till January.

Joined my colleagues at Fuji Xerox for lunch after the interview since my workplace is only 10mins away from the interview venue at Biopolis. We went to Sean Im food centre at harbourfront for lunch followed by some shopping in Vivocity. In the afternoon, I was "banished" to the other side of the office. Sian, less chances to talk cock and do funny things anymore unless I walk over back to where I came from. Yah, and we found a good time-killer : Sudoko! The first time there was a 6 man challenge and I came in third. The others assumed that I will come in first but I think Im over-rated, as usual. Haha.
