Oh, terrible. Don't know how to describe it. Worse than smelly tofu for sure. In the summer months, many get ran over by cars and then when one drives along that stretch of road? Oh, the smell. Kills man! Even with the windows up.
Garbage truck? No ah.......worse than that.
Sounds like it might smell like decomposing human bodies... although I've never ever smelled any decomposing bodies before!
Not that I ever want to! -

Yup. Eventually, I'll get tax returns for my PC, my course fees, and my textbooks. I hope it'll be 100%. It should be, unless they've changed the tax rules.
Thing is, I have to come up with the money first, and then hopefully get it all back later. And unfortunately, because my employer is sponsoring the bulk of the course fees, I can't touch my credit card to pay for my share first. It's gonna be cold, hard cash.
On top of that, the bummer thing is whilst I'm on the course, my income will drop substantially because I won't be able to put in full-time hours. So it's not just saving up for courses, it's also saving up for a rainy day.
ah, no worries. u know the chinese sayings about "small choi no out, big choi no in"? it will all pay off eventually. in fact, i am taking some courses myself. but it is not for career advancement. just something to stimulate my mind and keep in sync with sonny. heh heh.....
i know the "pay first, claim later" feeling but at least, you know you will get your $$$ back. it's like savings, yah?

Yeah, it is.
I'm quite happy that I'll be sent to the courses, really. I'm also taking up a few courses at my own time before the real courses start just to prep myself and rev my brain up. Too long never use, the brain like rusty liao! After my courses are over, I'll take a long vacation, for sure!
I'll also love to start Korean or Japanese language classes, just to keep the mind active, and to interact with Korean / Japanese patients. -
