It's a good Monday for me so far...
Accompanied mama to CCK HBD branch to pay the housing installment, HDB miscellaneous fees after which mama accompanied me to DBS bank. Yes, I went to settle my tuition fee(TEL)loan and I'm very happy to be able to repay the entire lump sum of some $19k.
This means greatly to me because I didn't have to owe the bank anything and even though I would have to work hard from now onwards to repay my parents and to support my brothers in future, I know this is the best way for all of us in terms of finances.
I do have a suggestion for people who have enough liquidities on hand to pay for their studies in local universities to first invest the sum of money and earn a profit with the sum while taking the TFL and then repay the entire TFL after graduation. Simply because there isn't any interest during the course of study.
Of cos if either parent has enough in his/her CPF, the next best option will be to loan from the CPF instead of from the banks cos whatever interest you will be repaying will be to your parent's CPF. Yet, I have a dream that when I have children of my own, I want to be able to provide for their education even if they would like to go overseas. Time to work hard Janice!
After that I met Yixian at LJS for our long-waited chat and discussion. Nothing is finalised yet so I'm keeping mum for now. What I know is that nothing should be able to deter two like-minded people with the dream to achieve something, especially since we have each other for support. Will be meeting up with her next saturday, on the 10th to update each other. Let's work hard, Yixian! And I should encourage you here for your FYP too; please have more confidence and you must definitely pass this time!
After which she left for school to do her report while I went to the library. The library is my next "best friend" now after Google haha. Yup, knowledge is something no one can take away from you. I've found out how interesting it is to read now after I re-pick up a book just recently.
But no, I'm no longer reading novels and I haven't been reading novels for the longest time. I prefer travel books/guides, cook books, magazines and self-help books. Recently, I've just read a book on Comfort Trap - riding a dead horse and another on 151 ways to improve your people skills.
I didn't manage to finish both books but I believe it's a good start nonetheless. For today, I borrowed 2 biz magazines, a health magazine and 1 cook book :) jiayou and enjoy the reading Janice!
While I was sorting the meeting minutes with Yixian, I've got a call from Diyana comfirming the interview for the Perm Executive Officer position which I'm shortlisted. The interview is next tuesday, 10am at WKWSCI. And I've just received another call from RWS for the position of Guest Services Ammbassador. The interview will be this wednesday 6.20pm at Sentosa Convention Hall. I'm waiting for more details to come in via email...
Going tuition later this evening. In all, today should be a very good day for me. Have a good week everyone, especially to those working; it's a short week ^^Labels: Interviews, VENTURE
