dearest shuwei. update for you.
(let's not be biased. for everyone else in Singapore too)
Life's been busy lately with interns on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and bakery on Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays. Been two weeks since I've been with American Diabetes Association (ADA) and I have been learning tons of stuff. Nothing like what you're learning in Paribus. Totally unfamiliar with those financial terms. ADA been exposing me alot to the world of advertising. Been writing Public Service Announcements (PSA) for the ADA for all the Radio/TV/Cable stations in California. Basically getting involved in the whole process of getting the PSAs read on national broadcast. From writing a 30sec spot to writing the cover letters to 83 different stations and sending them out (havent reached till this part yet). Since you're coming back LA only late august, you probably won't get the chance to hear the announcement over the radios.
So anw, I am still trying to adjust to the idea of working 7days/wk.... Especially this coming wkend- Independence day wkend. Offices are closed but I still have to work in the bakery. The others in the bakery made me switched schedules with them and somehow I ended up working in the bakery the whole day from friday till sunday. Didnt knw it was the independence day wkend till few days ago. Sometimes when I get so sick of working in the bakery, I keep telling myself that the money is meant for good cause so I get the drive to keep on going.
I wanna start volunteering with St John Health Center over at Santa Monica Blvd too. But I'll start sometime later this month or early august when I get everything else on track. Plus, it's a long term commitment thing once I start with them. So it will continue on till the school semester begin and even after that. Not a bad way to start giving back to the community and explore the field of medicine. hehehe!
send some love over from singapore yo! you know I love you *the ryan secreast way*
