my internship experience (part 1)
friday was my temporary last day for my internship stint at MHQ. why i say "temporary" is because ill be returning to the place in 3 weeks' time, after my predeparture course, which commences tomorrow.
anywayy it was the last time i got to meet my fellow interns in our familiar working environment. ive really enjoyed my time at MHQ particularly because of their company, and really thank them from making my first experience working in civil service a colourful and memorable one. work at MHQ is quite busy and sometimes we may be loaded with a few tasks to juggle with at hand, but the important thing was, we had each other to seek advice and encouragement from, and to break the monotony of work life (:
other than the random fun we have daily, such as scouring for nice food in the region for lunch, and our HTHT talks, we had several activities together too! heres a chronological recount of the major fun activities we had (:
we had a nice dinner @ kuishin-bo, where we each took turns rushing for the special dish :D and then i discovered that some of my interns have a love for seafood just like myself! we chatted about lots of random things during the session and i got to find out more about my fellow interns.
we also had a pot luck session where we each had to bring a dish that we prepared ourselves. as i am terrible at cooking, i made pizza instead, by buying the pizza base, and the various ingredients, and making a DIY pizza. heres how our sumptuous feast looked like! (pizzas still not microwaved yet)
stuffed zucchinis... asparagus with bacon... shrimp cocktails... yummy!
let the feast begin!following that, we had a kbox session where we sang lots of emo songs as well as high songs (: the favourite emo song of the night was 612 xing qiu, which is also one of my favourite SHE songs from the previous album, because it is about the little prince!
and on last friday, we claimed our off from the HT exhibition, and we went to changi airport to send our fellow intern, beryl, off to korea. we took random shots together before we bid her farewell, and then went to popeye's for a late breakfast / early lunch.
group shot (:feeling energised after the meal, we decided to have some fun around the airport, and that was when my first major cam-whoring experience began.
