Also in other news, 4 days, Over 600 pages to study, CMFAS Module 9, Aced.

In the end, it was a little sad saying bye to the laptop I’ve been working on for 3 months, will I ever work in an IT related job, full-time? I’ve no idea. It was a great experience, and the people I’ve worked with made my job so much easier by being really friendly and approachable.

Enter a new challenge.

So it’s gonna be 4 days, over 700 pages to study.

So I passed CMFAS Module 5 Last Monday, and due to negligence, and me falling sick, I am left with 4 days to study for CMFAS Module 9. I am so dead.

On a brighter note, as a reward to myself for ending 3 months worth of work, I burnt a deep hole in my pocket and purchased the Canon Ixus 210s, a more detailed review on it later. The picture above, is taken with my new camera, with a supposedly 3D effect, and I am really having tons of fun exploring the camera, but right now I am pretty sure I don’t want to waste the 100 SGD spent on registering the CMFAS exam. Mugging, here we go again.

Interesting story, about how I decided to get my own name card. After coughing for like an eternity, I finally decided to take a day off and head down to look up my old family doctor in the East of Singapore, to my surprise he is no longer working at the clinic anymore. In his place was a new doctor and well he was a really friendly guy, and I was like the only patient in the whole clinic, so we chatted a bit.

He eventually asked me what was I working as, and I told him I designed websites for Health Sciences Authority and he became really interested in the work I do. It turns out, a while ago, he was thinking of setting up his own website, and asked if I would be interested in helping him set up his website for a fee. During then, I simply wrote down the URL of my online portfolio on a piece of paper.

Only then, did it struck me how important it is to have a name card or business card. It makes you come across as more credible, trustworthy, and of course, helps so much in networking. Perhaps I am a little young for a business card, but I am going to give it a shot anyway, after all I am probably one of the 100,000 graduates walking around in Singapore in a few years time, one must differentiate himself.

So apparently, white does not count as a colour when designing business cards, so hence my design only used a total of two colours, yellow and black, and I am about to send them for printing.

I am rather excited about this step I am making, because after some serious consideration, I realised that I had to differentiate myself from the thousands of BBA holders out there in a few year time, and I think web designing will be the gateway to that.

Do let me know, if you have any suggestions or thoughts about making it better, drop a comment or talk to me directly (:
