Finally, got off my laziness and updating my blog now. I'VE GOTTEN AN ACTUARIAL INTERNSHIP!!!!!! Lucky me and lucky ah ting. Your chance of study abroad have slightly increased. Currently, I am working with EMC National Life Company. Everyday crunching numbers and figures. (wrote on June 7th 2007).

Everytime when I called home, my mum will always have the same question for me. When am I going to update my blog? According to her, my dad has been checking my blog frequently though it always disappointed him. The most current entry's date will always be in March. What a lazy bone here. Well, I tried to write something but whenever I begin writing, I'll have problem to continue what I was going to blog about. I hope this entry can be as long as possible, to fill in the gap between the last entry and this.

Carry on with the thing I wrote one month plus ago, numbers and figures are still my co-workers everyday. Everyday, I'll walk into my tiny little cubicle, turn on my machine and sat there from 8 til 4.30 pm. The most interesting part of this job is, my supervisor, Mark Rowley, he is going to be my professor for ACTS 151, a class I'm going to take this Fall semester. And, he's trying to get budget approval for extending my internship through Fall. Can you imagine that your boss is going to be your professor as well? My performance both in class and at work is evaluated by the same person. Hope there won't be any cross influence.

On the day before 4th of July, I did go to work. During working, I emailed my new colleague a.k.a Keving Kading about his plan for July 4th. He was going to spend his 4th of July in his lake house and invited me to come along with him. Of course I would love to join him as I didn't really have plans for 4th of July, plus it is a lake house. I doubt that I will have many chances to visit my friend's lake house. The place was named Sun Valley Lake. It is located an hour south from Des Moines. We watched fireworks on the lake, drank in his place on that night. Surprisingly, his parents were so cool to join a bunch of teenages while we were playing drinking games. The next day, I experienced my 1st water skiing. I tried a few times and the last time, I stood up a while but still wasn't able to balance and end up in the water again.
