An invitation from NUS 2010

Its all a long waited acknowledgement from the local most outstanding and prestige University which stands to the test of time. National University of Singapore had sent me a surprise parcel that comes in a brown papered envelop, thick enough to hide a double cheese burger. Exaggerating of course.


Even before I attempts to open it up, I expected it to be an acceptance letters. Not being complacent here but more or less I reckon that they wouldn't be bother to send out a thick parcel just to inform you that you had been rejected, along with some freebies or coupons to lighten up your spirit. That will be stupid and not their style. A oldest school in Singapore are of attitude. Never hear them say YES, you have to take its as a NO.


Happily opens the package.

WHAT!!!! I had been offered into Environmental Engineering. That's was a shock for me. I never see that coming. A course that contain 90% AAA/A or GPA 3.9 equivalent had wanted me in their course. Its a double edged sword. I couldn't decide.


Why Environment Eng?

Civil is dry and energy draining. All boy course. Furthermore it also helps me in my future bond with Sembcorp Utilities (Water/Energy recycling) related. My favorite part is the opportunity to speak more English. Or force to speak more. Most importantly, my Nemesis wouldn't choose this course which is a intellectual challenging choice. Oh, yes. This is an insulting statement. Facesmack.


Why not Environment Eng?

Being at the 10 percentile group. One can't help but to feel the pressure. Lots of catching up to do plus my bad experience with geek that had no life, always indulge themselves 24/7 to projects. Mundane lifestyle all over again.

Career prospect for Env. Eng. Rock bottom! I can't believe the result for employment rate, bottom of the list with a huge gap. EWT student be wary. Not only the market appeal is small, they pay slavery. They studied their shit off the course, constantly under pressure and competition. Earning them in a position to earn the least among all engineering peers. A daily wanking dude from civil course earns much much more. It amuses me. LOL


Should I accept the offer to (Bachelor of Engineering) Environmental Engineering?

So right now, probably I will wait till NTU's reply. I also put Env. Eng prior to Civil for my choice of course. Bad move.

Updated

NTU did send me an offer on 15/04. Admission to Environmental Engineering 2nd year.
Now the problems come. I want to APPEAL!!!

Changi NEWater plant opened

SINGAPORE : Singapore’s largest and most advanced water reclamation plant — the Changi Water Reclamation Plant — will open next week. The pumping station at the new Changi Water Reclamation Plant is as high as a 25—storey building. The station collects all used water from the deep sewerage tunnels via gravity. The water then undergoes a treatment process at the plant before being discharged into the sea. Part of that treated water will be processed into NEWater when the NEWater plant, which is being built on the rooftop of treatment facilities, is ready. The NEWater factory which will be operational by May next year can produce 50 million gallons of treated water daily. This is equivalent to the volume of water in 90 Olympic—sized swimming pools. PUB said the Changi Water Reclamation plant stands out in its land use. "The designers have incorporated a space saving design concept — things like stack treatment tanks and also stack treatment facilities like our sludge treatment facil

Is finnciti a scam? a layman perspective

Recently, thru a friend introduced me a platform finnciti (previously known as smicap) where you can multiple your investment in folds. The return as per quoted is up to 100% just by holding your investment on hand. I was skeptical and interested at the same time so I went online to do a little research on my own. It is not difficult to return result by just searching: "Is finnciti a scam" or "Is smicap a scam". Reviews were in mixed bag. Some mention that they earned big bucks and its a platform for normal people to get richer while some other point out some resemblance of a scam structure and therefore classified finnciti as a scam platform. I am a layman using basic logic to analyst the concept and by no mean I am advising to invest or against it. But in my humble opinion, ALL INVESTMENT POSSESSES RISK AND PLEASE BE PRUDENT WHEN DOING ANY KINDS INVESTMENT AND ONLY INVEST IN YOUR MONEY THAT YOU CAN BEAR LOSING . SMICAP was established in 2007 by Singapor
