Met up an old friend today. She doesn't understand why I am suddenly more concious of my looks.

I bought eye makeup today cos JJ complained that I only doll up when i go pubbing (when he is not around). He asked me why I don't take those machiam makeover photos of myself anymore. The kind of clothes that appeal to him, doesn't quite appeal to me. So, when I look at clothes etc now, I try to think if he would like it, or ask him for his opinion before buying.

Alrightee.. So I guess I am really INTO this relationship now. Banking my happiness on him. Hope he doesn't let me down. There are the 'trust' and ' honesty' issues yet to be resolved, but well... it's easier to give him the benefit of the doubt.

The friend I met started talking about the salaries engineers get. Most of those who took those 'professional' degrees, say accountancy, engineering, finance.. are getting attractive starting pay. A considerable margin above the rest. You might say, there are marketing pple who earn a lot too, but how many of the marketers here in singapore earn a lot? In engineering, finance and accountancy, you don't have to be that outstanding to earn those more attractive salaries. In marketing, you have to be really outstanding to earn the same high salary. It takes a marketing employee more years to reach just 3K of monthly salary than the other "professional" degrees like engineering and accountacy. I can go on and on.. At the end of the day, it's still senseless and pointless debate.

I struggled with whether I should take business or engineering at the start. Business -- my interest, uncertain pay. Engineering -- not my interest, more predictable higher pay. Interest sits higher on the rung of my ladder.

Later, struggled whether to take Finance or Marketing as my business major. Finance -- easier money. no interest. Marketing -- difficult money. my interest. Well, I could double major, but for what? Marketing credit cards is still marketing. Anyway, took marketing cos I was so intrigued by the marketing train of thoughts. I love the way my mind is now. And I was happy when JJj made a comment that I speak in a very marketing way.
