Work and Future

Today was the release of IA allocation results!
haha, yeah well, I've got my 2nd choice, Leica! And yes, I checked. Shell did not hire anyone, from NTU at least?
I heard that Shell only take one intern and most likely, it'd be their sponsored scholar.

So here's Leica's main website:

I get so hyped up watching those cameras and lenses and the video:

So, for those who do not know much about (I didn't know much about it either, all I know was it's a big company which produce lenses), apparently Leica produces lenses for big brands like Nikon, Canon, Sony, etc. :

Cool huh?? And I think I'm in the procurement department! Which is the kind of job I wanted to do :) But we'll see how it goes ;)

And so I was telling my dad the (good?) news. Haha. My dad kinda popped sth at me. He said he was talking to my mom. They knew I wanted to study at Harvard and they decided to let me do my MBA there if I want to. Dad said if that's the case he'll have to work for one more year to save up for the tuition fees. He checked the tuition fees and needless to say, freaking expensive. He said that he saved enough for his retirement with mommy and told my brothers to let him know where they want to study and all so that he can make plans. To see how many more years he need to work to save for those tuition fees.

Awww... :( Of course I don't want my parents to work so hard just to earn me tuition fees! I will definitely figure out ways to try to lighten their burden. Or at least, to use some of those money to travel instead! lol :P

OK GTG. Project meeting then Work! 3 more days to work! JIAYOU GAN JIN NI! EARN MORE $$$$$. woots.

Wow, I didn't know Leica takes in Intern from NTU.

I seriously didn't know that.

Their cameras are very expensive and highly sought after.
They cost about 10K SGD a piece and are sometimes called "Camera porn"

Congrats and good luck for your internship.
