Haven't blogged in a while. Nothing much happening except the preparation for exam. Which I'm not doing a lot of =x
I went to Vivo with Hani, Ati, Keith, Helmie, Shalini and Shobha to celebrate Shobha's 21st. Haven't been to Vivo in a while, and when I went there today, I realized why =/ An hour was spent just trying to find one another.
I had fun, and I also was a little relieved because none of them started studying yet. Dunoe why I'm the only one who got a little sense of urgency. This is what happens to people who need to study a lot just to be on par with the smart ones who don't seem to need to study at all.
I went to plan out my schedule for next semester. I'm kind of glad I have no exemptions because I can take subjects which I have an interest in, and the time for those modules are also cut in half. And there are no exams for those, so my workload is significantly reduced.
I'm still a bit sore about the results for the lab report. Sigh. I wonder if I went to the other class, would I be able to get higher than just a pass. But at least the final exam for that subject is just MCQ.
Dinner time. Cya.
This year's birthday was one of the best I ever had.
On Wednesday night, I had a nice dinner with my parents and two sisters, which was reeeeally nan de. I think we have such dinners only 5 times a year. My grandma cooked up a feast, and we spent hours at the table talking to each other.
On Thurs, I didn't want to go to school, since I missed the morning lecture. But I went because Suhaimi and Kok Liang were giving their presentation on Supernatural, and I really wanted to be there for it.
Suhaimi did a magic trick to demonstrate 'witch power' or 'supernatural gods', and he asked me to be the volunteer cuz it was my birthday. After the lesson almost everyone came to shake my hand. lol. Made me feel special. I almost cocked up his trick though. They were complaining to me after the presentation. lol.
Then Shalini was so sweet to buy a birthday cake for me. She took care of the
whole celebration. She came for the tutorial even though its not her class just to settle everything for me.
But I was a little disappointed because Hanisah wasn't there. I was closest to her of the 10. But what really made my day was when Jul told us that Hani was rushing from her camp to school
just to wish me happy birthday. And Night didn't have class yesterday either, but he came from home just to wish me as well. I was so touched.... So very happy to have such wonderful people in my life.
I was feeling really bummed this evening, and spent hours under my bed cover. I really wanted to get out somewhere so I took a shot and smsed Jul and Kok Liang if they were free. I expected them to be busy because it was so last minute, but Jul
straight away asked where to meet me. And Kok Liang was sleeping because he stayed up that night to do his presentation, but Jul woke him up, and he
straight away woke up and took a cab down to where we were.
Omg.. I was so so so
so appreciative of them. Where can I find this kind of friends, and how lucky am I to have so many of them? They made me feel so very special just when I was feeling so pathetic.
We went to The Pump Room at Clarke Quay. We stayed there for like, what, 4 hours? They stayed so late to be with me even though they had class the next day. I had some lager, a Singapore Sling, which rocks by the way, and a bit of a Cosmo. I couldn't handle the Cosmo so Kok Liang traded drinks with me. hahaha.
We poured our hearts out that night. I felt so much better, and I was really enjoying myself. Kok Liang even sent me home at 2am.
It was such a fantastic day.
Last two days of school before holidays start. Sad =(
Only me and Hani were prepared for the presentation this morning. I worked really hard for it, and only I really knew what was gonna happen. But this morning there were so many problems and it made me feel worse than I already was feeling. Thank God everything went okay, and the friends that were watching said it was a good presentation. Could have been better though =(
Today has been one of my better days despite the wrong start in the morning. I was watching videos with Suhaimi from 6pm until 9pm, and we were laughing until our faces turned red. AFV is really freaking funny.
Kok Liang reminded me about sth bad which I had so badly wanted to avoid thinking of. The next month would be my last with all of them together, because I didn't have any %^&*( advance standing. I'll still try to take a couple of same subjects as them, but it still won't be the same. He said it's weird to be upset after just 3 months of being together, but I've gotten close to quite a number of them, him included.
The best thing about them is, if you had a problem, they'd drop everything and listen to you. Or sometimes when you don't say anything, they'd still know there was something wrong. And they make you feel so comfortable with them that you can say things that you could never say to other people before, and what surprised me is, they are as open with you as you are with them.
That's what I love about them. Gonna miss them so much next year.
Last night was fun. Dinner at Vivo with Dave, then to Boat Quay to meet Kok and Jul. He was so sweet to want to go with me =D
Supposed to be a gathering of our group of friends, but only 4/10 turned up == Ended up as a couples' night, because Jul brought Alvin, and Kok brought Huiwen. The drinks there were so expensive.
Haven't really been seeing him lately. Been staying out till night, either in school or library. I'm left with the last 3 assignments before exams. I wanna try to chiong finish everything then enjoy my Christmas break. I realize that I get crabby when I don't see him as much as I'd like. I feel guilty too.
Okay.. Early night for me today, then to library tomorrow to try to finish my essay. Tah~
Was so busy doing my work that I didn't have time to blog.
Been going to National Lib this week. On Wed, Suhaimi took me there on his bike =D omg so fun! At first I was clinging onto dear life and didn't dare open my eyes. But after that I really enjoyed it. It was raining too. After doing my lab report, I went to Bugis Junction and Iluma but couldn't find any mp3 to buy. In the end went to Plaza Sing. I went to the library to get started on my essay today. I really need the marks for that since I buang-ed the test.
I'm finished with my report! Actually I finished it long ago, and it was a good thing too. I realized that you needed like, at least 2 days of editing. I'm quite happy with it =D
These few days was really a deja vu of the time of my art exam. Lol. If I had an important deadline to meet, I would always empty my bag of the other subjects, and only bring the materials for that project. I stayed up late last night too, trying to tie together some loose ends. A few ppl were online with me too. hahaha.
Going to Boat Quay with a few coursemates later tonight. We really need a break =/
Uni is hard and different for me, but I'm loving every minute of it!
Really hit panic mode yesterday. That's when I really realised how heavy my workload was for next week. I can see everyone panicking around me. hahaha.
But in spite of the hunky, hot, sexy distraction next to me yesterday, I managed to get a good start on my test. I just wish I don't have this flu that's been making it harder to do my work.
Gonna try to finish as much as possible then go over to parents' place for dinner tonight, if there is. I didn't go last week and I haven't seen them for awhile.
One thing that worries me though is that everyone around me seems to be chionging their lab report that's due on Friday, instead of studying for their test which is on Tuesday. The last test on Thurs was okay to me (although I arrived late and missed half the time for the test == ) but the next one is much more complicated.
Well I just said I have a lot of work to complete by next week, and I don't know why I'm still online here blogging for the past 10 mins.
Saturday was my aunt's wedding. I wore this beautiful dress that belonged to my sister. The three of us plus Gab's two friends were in charge of decorating the hall. We only had over an hour to do it.. In the end we were late by about 5 mins for the wedding ceremony >< My legs were aching the next day because of all the bending down.
I met my honey after that. The wedding was just across the road from his school. Went dinner then watch New Moon! I liked it but I think it was a wrong time to watch it, because we were both so tired. It made the movie boring.
I just reached home actually. Class ended late today. I enjoyed today though. Couldn't sleep last night because I was worrying about the presentation this morning. In the end I decided to read my lecture notes, and I fell asleep 5 mins after that =x
The presentation before us was super lengthy with loads of words and information. I was so nervous because ours seemed inferior compared to theirs. But I was amazed when ours was the only group to be complimented! That's when I know that lots of information isn't necessarily good. Simple and easy to understand was sometimes better.
Decided not to go home today during the break, and stayed with my friends to study for the test on Thursday. Spent the afternoon at Thomson Plaza's Starbucks. The 10 of us took up half the Starbucks. Lol..
Then the topic of relationships came up within the four of us. After talking to them about my concerns did I realize that I was actually doing more than expected. And that my relationship with Dave was different from others because it was special. I guess perhaps I was so caught up with
not doing the things that will harm it, that I overlook the things that I'm doing right.
After our last class, took the same bus as Jul and Ati. Suddenly we started talking about our supernatural experience. Oh god.. We got super scared on the way home. When I changed bus, I went to the upper deck, but there was no one there. After a couple of stops I freaked myself out and ran down. == I just hope I can get to sleep tonight. Then I came home and scared my younger sister. Lol!
Gonna chiong finish my study for the Thursday test. The guys like never study at all. We were busy reading and writing at Starbucks but they were talking and joking and surfing the net. But perhaps we are too anxious about scoring well. It's only an MCQ test after all. Should be easy to score.
