Somehow i got very tired from taking exams right from the start of first paper.
LSM1401 on 25/11/2006 : Somehow i refused to write notes for this open-book exam and so.. throughout the 2 hours i was busily and messily flipping the textbookSSS and notes. I had to put 1 text under my shading OAS, lecture notes at the right hand corner of the text and some on the floor?! and the Oxford Dictionary of Biochemistry behind my butt on the chair since i was like occupying only 1/3 of the seat cos table no space liao -_-||
SC1101E on 27/11/2006 : CLASSIC! First time in my life I was so close to missing an exam. Hardworking me decided to wake early for my 1pm paper but tired me snoozed the alarm from 7.30am to 8.15am. So while i was brushing the teeth.. I felt something amissed and decided to take alook at my timetable. When i saw 9am beside SC1101E i JUMPED! I ran to my mum who was still sleeping and exclaimed and she shouted. In 5 mins time, I did the taxi booking, did the changing, and managed to gulp down 1 cup of honey drink and by 9am I super luckily managed to reach NUS ON TIME! Really must thank the Taxi Auntie who together gan chionged with me and tried her best to do alot of overtaking on the road. HENG ah!
But soci is an expensive module I spent 17 bucks tt day to rush for the soci tutorial and now 27 bucks! ( cos of booking, erp, jam, peak)
CM1501 on 28/11/2006: Wasnt with much hiccup but I was super "sieh" cos of inadequate sleep!
PY1005 on 29/11/2006: Regretted slacking too much in the day and piah-ed only last minute :( So I din have time to throughly yan jiu the mechanism of Renal and the questions of Renal was hard..:( Dont know if its jus plain hard or cus i din study enough... Surprisingly.. the other topics were easy! :)

Yay.. 2 more to go only.. Funny I cleared all of my modules except my Engin modules... Finally to give my brain a break from all the memorising..

I must continue to do more good deeds and pls bo bi bo bi!!! The day when i almost din make it to the exam hall but made in the nick of the time, i trust that lady luck is shining on me ... Continue to shine on me, at least till nxt monday !

好朋友

One of the 2 songs tt kept playing in my mind. Is a remake of a korean drama song which I loved.

I dont like the way they looked at me today.
But before that, Happy Birthday to Clement! Haven had good food in a long time :)

After our last Signals tutorial today, the tutor, whom I still haven get to know his name, asked the class if we are from Bioengineering or EE. The class today, comprising of only 5 students and out of 3 were BIE students. He looked at Huimin and I and we said we are from BIE. Then, u know what he did!?! He shaked his head, looking disappointed and continued packing this stuff.
SHAKE HEAD!? Despite being a little disadvantaged learning EE modules and competing with the EE students, I still very angry at him looking down on us! I get an A let u see! Okay lar. A-..

After celebrating Clement's Bday, I took the packed 72 back and I ended up standing.. Upon approaching my stop, I moved nearer towards the door and a lady die die also wan squeeze past me and get to the first position next to the door. But since I am also alighting, I just moved a little closer to the door and sort of indicate to her that I am alighting.. But she persisted and tried harder to squeeze past. When she finally succeeded, she looked back at me and "diao" at me twice.. and I looked hard into her eyes. I was actually quite puzzled while a little pissed, whats the difference between the first to alight and the second to alight? HUH? And need she be so angry with me?

Did I develop such strong feelings because I m getting a little bad tempered thesedays?

I was hoping I'd lose interest. I did not.. how can.
Im so addicted to it + 冲上云霄 + TV...

From someone not dutifully glued to the TV at 7pm for Goong.. I became someone who sits blankly infront of the TV at 7pm with my notes in my hands and watches Goong.. which I still dont think its nice..despite efforts to try understanding pple's addiction to it.
And at 8pm.. I begin to lay more stuff on the living room table ( pencil box opened.. txtbook opened.. notes flying).. and with the Channel U/8 variety shows as the background entertainment... Oh but yesterdays Say I Do was quite sad.. I thought I teared for the girl. Owells, its not meant to be lor.
Then 9pm.. i started packing my stuff to adjourn to the study room for some serious reading...
At 10pm, I shifted to the living room again for 冲上云霄...

Cannot like that already la.
Me to myself: I think tomorrow's episode not nice la. Not worthwhile to watch. Shit, who am i kidding. Myself.

真不好过。
早上起来虽然还说得出话， 但是浑身热热的。想找个温度计， 可是偏偏找不到。
就这样昏昏沉沉地躺在床上到11点钟，终于找到了温度计，38。2度。 好不舒服, 决定去看医生, 哪知道她今天休假, 只好随便找另一间.
现在终于觉得好一点了,想打印明天的讲译,却发现昨天还好好的打印机却不知为何突然坏了! 好气人!
这样,没有讲译, 我更不想去明天早上7.30的课了.

trust NinJiom. trust strepsils. trust robitussin. trust woods. trust vicks. trust my own immunity system.

I was still talking happily with joyce at Macs just now.
Now my throat hurts even when I try to talk.
Gahz. Really shouldnt have eaten the fries.
And somehow I think the NinJiom Candy thingy doesnt work at all.. why does zj eats it like a 仙丹then. Or maybe I should really switch flavor from Lemon-Tangerine to Orginal-which smells real bad.
Hope I ll be able to speak w/o uncomfort tmr morning when I wake up. ( its always in the morning when the throat hurts worst when someone is having sore throat.. its like.. the virus has "worked" all night) I still wanna talk to my friends on monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, friday..everyday.. Hengs presentation already over.

I guess I really need the tutor to look at me with condescending eyes for the whole tutorial and give me a hard time before I begin to do magically well for the rest of the module when my anger and disappointment subside.

Somehow.. I think a fairy sprinkled some powder on my Assignment 3 or its either a pixie accidentally spilled potion onto it ... Cus MAGICALLY.. I got A- for it! The tutor's comment in bold stated: IMPROVEMENT and he drew a smiley face next to it too! :) Wahs really happy when I got my assignment back.. it made my $16.80 cab fare to school worth it.

And next surprise came as my Soci presentation which somehow got A+ for it! Woohoo.. That was really qt tyco I think..But for a 5% project.. I think my group put in quite alot of effort for meeting up 2 times in person and 2 msn meetings.

Last surprise from Soci.. my term paper got A- ! Yay... cus I think i really put a lot of effort into it... despite I had s/ued it but cos i wanted to yi(4) xue(3) qian(2) chi(3)!

Yayness.
I showed Huimin a little of my lame-ness today.. When the tutor asked: clear, not clear? ( he was referring to the concepts btw)
I said: translucent.
Yeps. Im abit high after Soci tutorial...

Anw...my proj group just guessed correctly at first try that I was frm TJ and AHS.
Cus he said: U got the intelligent and innocent and guai look.
-_-

The train must be a good breeding ground for the flu virus. I dont like it when I ve no dustbins on the train to dispose my used tissue paper. Its so unglam to be sneezing and yet no place to dispose off the tissue paper.. Haha... Esp when I've an issue with undisposed tissue papers lying around. ( Arrows to my sis who shares a study table with me... )
Why dont they install small trashbins on trains?

Its a cold, windy, rainy day today. To get the true feel of a cold, windy and rainy day, try sitting along Dilly's corners table. U ll get the wind.... the splashing of the droplets of rain when they hit the ground... and the COLD.

Grasshopper visited me again today. Its his 2nd time. First time at Arts Forum and scared the whole hell out of me... The first moment I could hear the buzzing cos by the flapping of wings and the next moment it landed on my table and Mr grasshopper measures a whole of 8cm! + Alive and Kicking! Ready to flutter it -issit-wings?- and land on my head. Before it can choot stunt, I tried to look as composed as I could.. ( cos the girls at the table beside me had all their eyes on Mr Grasshopper too), packed my things quietly in order not to disturb him and !zhoom! to the other table.
Today, apparently, he likes to accompany me study.. and flew near me again... though abit further away.. Landed on the window there and stayed there.. Heng ah.

I said I wasnt afraid of lizards..din mean that Im not afraid of grasshoppers... Basically.. I think I am freaked out by all FLYING insects. Grasshopper.... 你别对我。。 对你爱爱爱不完。。。 对你思思念念到永远。。

chicken feed vs happy feet

i came across this picture, or rather i took great lengths to type www.gv.com.sg on the adress bar of IE and clicked on "Coming Soon" and scrolled and clicked on "Website" beside this little penguin from Happy Feet.

I know Im not the type who would watch Magadascar ( now, did i get the spelling right. ), or Finding Nemo or Lilo and Stitch or Chicken Little and blah blah blah faithfully off the big theatre screen; my 29" TV;my laptop screen. But..that penguin caught my eye that day while I was travelling on the escalator that leads me from Orchard Mrt underground to CK Tang. While I am still not interested in catching the film or knowing the story, I am just quite happy having Mumble as my desktop and Msn display pic. Cos' I think he is cute.

Now, i get a little sad seeing the following ( referred to as "this picture" in the first sentence of this entry) Why arh.

See u guys till 04122006!

To celebrate the end of all official assignments today as i submitted my last lab report of the sem and to welcome exams that is coming in 3 weeks time, me n xiaoli went to have our claypot rice. :)

haha.. another guy whos like yongxin... who makes so funny comments until i can laugh off my chair.

i dun understand why u wan me to go to work even this dec holiday.
i ve been working every single holiday after since A levels and even to the very last week before school starts.
its not like i haven been giving tuition.
ive just been through a week with 4 times tuition and im so stressed over school stuff.
a dec spent working doesnt sound convincing at all for me to endure all these.
i know $ is important but can u give ur girl a break.

i thank the someone who listens. thanks.

huh....

I think Im abit cuckoo over signals till i started having weird hallucinations about it while half-asleep-half-awake on the train on my way home from school at 9pm.
I was thinking about convolving 2 signals and somehow you need to marry a signal in order to convolve it. Marry!?!
And then on 72 back home i was thinking about something real deeply till i forgot about pressing the bell and the bus just chiong-ed past my stop. Great, good exercise and i remembered to take the stairs today.
Now, why do i seem to be in a daze thesedays.
--------

Yesterday night. I was too bored with signals and I wrote something down in my notebook. It goes like this:

I felt that he was talking crap the moment he opened his mouth after he walked into the tutorial room.
The first question he asked,"So do u guys consider urself as an engineer or biologists?"
"Engineers work well in teams and biologists ( in this case he means doctors) are people so clever that they work well enough individually and hates to work in team."

To the 1st question, only a few raised their hands to either options. Yah, i was among the majority. I din raise my hands my i was thinking: C'mon, the eqns and symbols has conditioned me into someone not very comfortable with writing lengthy essays.

He gave an example on how the 2 will behave differently if there is an assignment due nxt day. Engineers will be uncomfortable not knowing the exact hour the assignment is due while biologists will be fine with the grey area. Instantly, i thought: stereoptypical, isnt he?

Today, Im actually amazed to realise that his example actually worked on me! IRO SEP online application, i knew, was due on 1st Nov but I remember lamenting about how displeased i was when IRO did not state what hour it is due on. So issit 0001 or 2359 of 1 Nov, or even office hours?!

He also said: Tell an engineer to head a proj. He will get it going very fast but for biologists, its difficult to even start the ball rolling....
Give me your 2cents worth on this.

Yes, he started the tutorial 15mins late, gave alot of inapplicable analogies on the 1st qn and took the nxt hour and the remaining 15mins to go through the nxt 3. No lah, he took 1/2 hour extra out of the stipulated and wow.. such a long physio tutorial.
-----------

Did i say? Like how i got used to it. I learnt to get used to living without it. Perhaps then, my vicious wkly cycle will stop.

each day passes so quickly till i fear.

monday tuesday wednesday passes without me feeling much about them many a day.
thursday comes as my saddest day of the week, its always the way.
fri morning lits up on alt weeks. fri night brings me joy, sometimes i say.
weekend passes just because its welcoming a new monday.

n so i cant believe last fri was so far away.
