Unofficial Unemployment

I finished my exams a two weeks back and my academic future is now as uncertain as it was a year ago. Other people ace their exams. I do it more like a two of clubs crawling on my knees and hands out of gravel pit one in the afternoon on a hot sunny day. So forgive my pessimism. It happens when at the end of two hours one hands up a script where out of 4 questions, none were completed. Then again, screwing up is one of my current hobbies. Meanwhile, I consider myself to be unofficially unemployed.

Last week, Faiz had a "cukur rambut" ceremony for his newborn which I missed. I wonder if I'll ever get to see him. It's a really sobering when one of your best friends is married and has a son while you're still floundering around in life. I can't say that I don't envy him.

Talking of floundering, my guess is the sunday soccer thingie is on hiatus until enough people are interested in playing again. Maybe those guys who still wanna play can get a transfer to Bishan or something. I hear the RI prefects got a game every Sunday and they get to play on the astroturf. i bet their ball is in way better condition then ours. Any ball that not undergoing some kind of exfoliation and slow-rate deflation has got to be better than our ball.

Maybe I'll more stuff in a weeks or so. Probably. Maybe.
