Earlier today, my navy mate talked to me over Windows Live Messenger; one of those question and answer conversation which did not last too long, he had asked me whether I was contacted by our beloved armed forces and I nonchalantly said to him a no. But now that I think about it, months ago I did receive phone calls whose numbers were not registered on my phone, and I was not bothered to pick up any of them, why?

Prior to that episode, I had a tough time persuading insurance agents to stop wasting their time and effort on me, some persistent ones could not stop pestering me for days. I figured that I should not be the target of businesses whose viral marketing campaign makes my ear bleed and victimized by suffering the wrath of random people through nuisance calls, which ultimately resulted in me leaving unknown callers to hang in the air.

It was not until recently, that I realized that some of those unknown callers were actually close friends who used their company phones to ring me up, I suppose i have sort of gotten over that episode by beginning to pick up those calls, but I am sure to be very rude towards people who will try to sell their services to me again and pranksters; I have since lost my patience and persuasiveness.

Just a while ago, a multimedia friend who took the faculty test with me for admission into the School of Art, Design and Media at Nanyang Technological University, told me that he got into the film making major. While I was happy for him, I did a simple subtraction and there goes one lesser seat to be taken up by the already small polytechnic cohort for the program, I am happy yet sad at the same time, indeed.

It has been raining inconsistently over the past few days, dampening my exercise regime for this week, praying for better weather in time to come, meanwhile, I have been contemplating over a gym membership; weatherproof and a more intensive regime! *rubs stubbled chin*
