today was my first day at ICES. it was quite interesting but not VERY interesting la. i was quite blur the first day. my "person-in-charge" asked me to wait for her driver at Jurong MRT station but i took the wrong bus. i took the company bus of ICES instead of her "private" bus LOL. ICES was located in Jurong Island and i was required to get through checkpoint before entering Jurong Island. haha... i also have to do a pass before i can cross the checkpoint. while doing my pass, i missed my "company bus" T.T no choice, i called my "person-in-charge" and asked her what to do. she told me to wait for her at the checkpoint and her "driver" will come fetch me... haha... i waited for like 1 hour la... like some lost soul in the checkpoint LOL. i finally enter Jurong Island and it was exactly like what my friend has said: the "birds don't lay egg place" (direct translate from chinese =p) haha... there were chimmeries all around and all i can see were factories and more factories. but then, it was quite green also, there are trees all around (Singapore is a green city mah=.=). i finally reached ICES. it was totally different from what i have saw previously at Jurong Island, where there are only factories. ICES was like erm... a normal organisation which is super common in City Hall. haha... i alighted from my "private bus" and waited for my "person-in-charge" at the lobby. LOL it was a super long wait =.= she was in a meeting and could not come out to fetch me. so i waited for her from 11am to about 2pm. obviously, i fell asleep. LOL
at 2pm, she came and woke me up =.= and we went to a room where she gave me a briefing for safety in Lab and those common things. she also gave me a locker key and my "ez-link card" in ICES... then i went to the 4th floor where all the students were and then i started reading the lame lame Lab Safety Manual cuz tomorrow i will have a safety test by ICES before i am qualified to enter the Labs. and guess what? the LSM was 45 page long!!!!! i think i can take my whole day reading it and falling asleep liao. thats why i'm here now writing this post as the LSM was seriously BORING!!! haiz... i need to read it till 5.30pm when i can officially "released" from this "birds don't lay eggs place" LOL
