Edudine is OVER

Finally, Edudine is over. I don't feel that relieved about it though. In fact, it sort of spells the end of PLC as I know it and the start of the blasted exam period. Interestingly, quite a few people are traveling now because tutorials are going to come to an end soon. But for once, I won't be the jet-setter. My tickets have drizzled to an end and I don't have the cash for it.

Anyway, I won't digress. Out of all 3 edudines I attended, I particularly enjoyed the first and this last one. I didn't care too much about the second one. I kept looking at my watch, willing the event to end asap because I had to rush home for J's birthday party. And the food was bad and the company rather wanting.

This time, I actually enjoyed engaging the people at my table. The lawyers were quite amusing. One of them was Ian de Vaz from Wong Partnership. He kept issuing namecards and joking that if we ever lost our jobs, he would be ready to welcome us with open arms.. haha. The other lawyer was young and very sweet and it turns out she's already a mother of a 17month old kid. Freak. I was sitting on the more interesting side of the table. For once. All this while, it seems that the interesting conversation always takes place somewhere else, whereas I'd always get stuck making the awkward small talk and not having my heart in it. But this time, I actually had a pretty good time!

A few of us headed down to Post Bar later. It was basically the girls, and one guy.. haha. Priya got picked up by this older man... and we kept smirking like mad as he approached her. Well it was a fun night. Tomorrow, I have to work off the alcohol and the nuts!!!
