finally changed the time settings on this blog. my frens were asking me abt the weird timings of posting.

and i slacked away my whole sat. didn't mug at all and now, i'm suffering the consequences.....1 more chapter to go......and it's closed book tmr, i think i'll jus scream at the lecturer if i realli forget one formula that is needed tmr. needless to say, hes a damn LOUSY lecturer who doesn't know what he is teaching, and his shitty module is closed book. and closed book exam in engine is not funny, how the hell are we supposed to memorise all those freaking formulas. and don't tell me it's going to benefit us cos i'll probably forget all once i step out of the exam hall.

seem to have a perpetual headache these day, it was esp bad after the paper on sat. and i did had enough slp for that paper.....oh, and i jus realised that phantom of the opera tix onli costed 50 bucks for students. oh mans, and i missed it. sigh, now the tix left are like 70 bucks and above, freaking ex. but i wan to go, it's like a once in a long long time thingy unless i'm going to the states or maybe some arty country to watch it.

17 hours more to my freedom, oh gosh. come quick.

3 more days to the end of exams. 3 papers down and 2 more to go. haa, and i'm blogging at such an unearthly hour. cos i'm still MUGGING. i guess it's kinda lucky that this sem, all my modules are afternoon paper (with the exception of the last paper ending at 7pm). it kinda benefits ppl like me who behave like owls and become active in the night. gosh, i always tot that my ideal working hours would be like 12pm to 10 pm, lol. but i won't have any social life working such hours.

oh wells, i screwed up 1 paper. sigh, and i tot that module was relatively easier but i sort of blanked out. i could have kick myself for that. sianzzzzzzz, and now i jus kp thinking abt that feeling i felt at that time. it was horrible and it had better not happen for the next 2 papers. so much about not screwing up this sem. oh well, maybe i'll ace my remaining papers rite? lol, that won't ever happen. i jus hope to do well.

nxt mon will be party time. lol, time to meet up with all peeps out there.

i am utterly disappointed in myself.

1 down. 4 more to go.

the end seems so near as its just 8 days a way. close to a week. but it seems so far away. it's funny how we wished we had more time to study but wish that exams will be over soon. hope all goes well for the next 4 papers.

oh gosh, i simply dread the feeling of going back nus nowadays as this means that it is TIME TO MUG:( sigh, i think my skin is getting really bad as i'm not getting enough sleep and addicted to junk food lately, not to mention the lack of exercise has made me chubby:( sian sian, exams stress always cause such stuff to happen as there's nothing to do but to mug and eat.

i really got to do well this sem, cannot be like the past 2 sems which i screwed up. in this sem, there must be no room for screwing up. and i must remind myself to stay calm and not pacnicked as i really studied all that has to be studied. sigh, it's quite sad that i've found my drive at this time of the sem, meaning its abit too late. but oh well, hope that my hard work will pay off.

so much to do after exams, internship, taiwan, jb trip, bday parties, and even my spider man movie. muhaha, simon even booked tickets for the movie liaox. ya, that's how kiasu we are. going to chiong to watch once exams all end.

got back one of my elective mid term today and i did well:) so relieved and it's a gd start for the exams.

14 more days to freedom. wow, this sem realli seems to pass in a wink of the eye. yay, and the hols are coming so we can all slack abit.

think i'm going to flunk the 2125 test last wk but oh well, thou shall work harder for the remaining 60 per cent.

i'm so tired nowadays that i seem to be having body aches. mugging in chem eng serious can shorten my life span by a few years.

went to my fren's mum funeral last friday, felt really sad for him. people are suppose to grow old and not die when they are barely mid way through their entire lives. i hope he takes it easy though it is not going to be easy.

on a brighter side, i got my internship for this hols. yep, i'll be working as an asst engineer in one of the engineering companies at CHANGI. haa, all of you must be thinking how desperate and crazy i am to go work at changi which is like miles away from yio chu kang. to tell the truth, i'm sick of taking up part time jobs which doesn't enable me to learn much besides doing data entry and selling stuff. well, the company paints a rather promising picture for the interns and reassured us that we will definitely learn alot from this experience.

yep and the gd news is, there are 5 interns in all. me and 4 other guys. apparantly, i was the onli girl that day at the interview with 9 other guys. i know what most of you are thinking, that i got the job cos i'm a girl. but hey, i went through the interview as well, and i did realli put in alot of effort.

but it was nerve wrecking. imagine sitting around a table, 10 interviewees and 3 interviewers and each of us given 5 mins to sell ourself on the spot and state what we can contribute to their company. i'm glad to be lucky that i was right in the middle so i had time to think and enough things to say. den we went through a second round interview with the interviewers bombarding us with questions. they were supposed to select 4 out of 5 but in the end, we all got in. haha, apparantly they were impressed with all of us but i guess they jus didn't want to kick one and leave 4 there. haha, and all the guys were dressed in exceptionally formal wear like we were there for some banking job.

so my hols shld be quite packed this sem with my taiwan trip and internship. at least i've got things to look forward to.

meanwhile, mugmugmug

exams will be over in 3 weeks time. and i'm starting to freak out as i count the amount of time left to my first paper. oh wells, chem engineers are doomed to be muggers, and we actually pay that much school fees to take a module which is actually self studied? my academic abilities are clearly overrated.

on the side, wanting to find an internship this hols. well, its all about building up a nicer resume right? and to gain insight as to what i'll be doing for the rest of my life. but it's so hard to find a gd internship, esp without any connections. haix:(

can't wait for taiwan. our air tix and hotels for 6 days costed 400 bucks only. unbelievable freaking cheap and i want to go there to eat til i burst. yummy, shilin street, here i come.

realise that one of my close fren parent is not feeling too well recently, and it really tells us how we should cherish our loved ones around us especially our parents. no doubt the chase for paper qualifications, career satisfaction, monetary gains are important to a certain extent, once some things are gone, they will never come back. well, i hope my this friend can be strong in this period of time and think positive:)

had a bad week with 2 mid terms. oh wells, shall not whine about the tests since they are all over.

met up with the 18/03 clique on friday to celebrate bro jeremy birthday at billy bombers. haa, yummy food as i did not pay any money, hee, it was his birthday treat for all of us. really glad to meet up with all of them, haha, shall we plan a beach resort trip together? hee...really glad to be able to meet up all of them even after so long sia, to think we have been in touch for the past 4 yrs liao....:)

received a card from jeremy, and i was really touched. i'm sorry i didn't have time to make you a birthday card, i was busy with all my tests last wk.

especially to my dearest bro:
friends come and go in all parts of our life,
as i read the message you wrote in the card,
i felt a wave of nostalgia.
and miss the carefree and happy outings we all used to have.
unlike now where all of us are so busy to meet up.
but no matter what, i'm glad to have had you there for me,
for sad and happier times.
and now when i think back about our jc days, i no longer remember the sad moments.
i only remember all the crap that we talked about, all the sentosa trips,
and all the mahjong and steamboat sessions.
and those nights spent at the wdlands mugging.
happy 21st birthday bro jeremy:)

met up with the 4/1 peeps to celebrate hilda's early 21st birthday, haha, and it was a night of laughter and fun and updates again. and they just never fail to make my day even if it meant meeting up for a short 3 hours.
