studing = no studying

Tired... is the only word that can describe my current state. Just had the Microbes CA just now. and as expected, studying = no studying.. cos its out of context and how to finish the paper in time!!! Watever the case, I didn't waste that much amount of time reading that useless stack of notes (aka paperplane). Focused correctly on the other one instead. Should still do fine but not score well.

This is the first paper that has negative scoring. meaning 1 mark for correct score and -1 for incorrect. So the possible chance of scoring 0% is possible. Hope not.. lolx..

Supposed to be out running, but the relentless headache has been pounding on my head, and I shall not risk working out with that. Will just rest early tonight and recharge for tomorrow. Its the first time in don't know how many donkey years that I'm sleeping before 2am. Yawnz...

Shocking Sms

Got a shocked when I suddenly receive a sms at 4pm from my cousin asking me what time I'm going over for tuition.. I had already planned my day to have NO tuition and to study for the Micro bio test. how irritating... He had just finished his last paper today, and he requested for the session. OH MAN!!!! how hardworking can he be... Alright, he's a Korean, here to study for a reason, perhaps that's what separates him from the typical Singaporean.. ( my cousin is the Korean kid's guardian )

Could have just gone down immediately, but have already promised Mindy for Gym session. Don't ps ppl last min, so I postponed the tuition till 7.30pm. The gym session was rather relaxing today, partly cos my last time to the gym was in March. half a yr without conditioning, my body isn't in shape to do much. Don't want to be aching all over tomorrow.

Went for YEP interview with the 2 leaders just now. Should be okay I guess. Now its just left to the part for them to decide whether they want me to be part of their team. At the moment they have 15gals, 3 guys. So they are in need of guys.. I'm in DeMaNd. lolx.. hopefully larh.. Shall just see how it goes.. their consideration was safety over there, but I think it can't be as bad as Cambodia ba. I was still planning to travel to Mumbai/ Delhi after the Yep trip itself. Hopefully Fang will be able to make it too, if not I'll be going there myself.. Really hope she can change the flight departure venue, if not I'll be sianz 1/2 .

Victory at Inter Club bridge League

Played for NUS team just now in the afternoon, it was the last game of the season. And I'm glad we did well to win the game just now. Played a total of 24 boards, which was split into 2 sessions, 12 boards each, spanning 4hrs in total... Won the first 12 boards, 59imps -11 imps, and second, 16imps -53imps. Total win at 75-64 imps. Since it was the last round of the season, the game would only cause a difference next season, causing us to be seeded 5th, higher chance to progress up the top. This league is across the whole singapore, with all the top Bridge players vying for the top spot in the Competitions and Cup, with attractive prize money....

I think I'm the only yr1 to have represented the club for 2 competitions, and the feeling of being in the team is good. Knowing that the Seniors are much stronger than the current yr 1s and yr 2s, I think i'm really fortunate and privilege to be able to play along side with them. The experience gained is invaluable. I realise I really enjoy the taste of victory. Who don't ? but victory never comes easy, be it pool, bridge, soccer, anything... hard work needs to be put in. bridge is very time consuming and so is pool. I've chosen this 2 to focus on at the moment, cos I enjoy playing it. But I know there'll come a time whereby I'll need to choose one. Which one would it be eventually ?

Bio Lab

Had Bio Diversity lab just now. To be fair, it was interesting, but it was once again, information overflow within that 4hrs of lab. was having a real hard time understanding and memorising the features and adaptations they have. All the terms they were saying and refering to were totally aliens to me.. partly because during the lecture on wed, which was JUST before calculus CA, I didn't absorb anything. So ya.. the aftermath of not knowing anything and going for the practical. The only positive thing today was that I got back my lab report and got an A. The rest is history...

The session was much much better than the previous session on plants.. which are ....erm.. all green... lolx.. At least this has more variety, but that means more differences, which means, more things to memorise again.. Zzzz...

Took a few photos of the few specimens that we were looking at.

Reminded me of my pet Terapin many many yrs ago.. how sad to see it being left with only bones and shell...
Biological name of Tortoise : Chelonia

Biological name of frog : Anura


This was my fav of today.. Cos its one of my favourite food. Wahaha... this one is actually quite big. I purposely place my pencil on the right-hand side of the glass to show just how big it is when compared to my puny pencil. Just too bad that this prawn is already 20yrs old... don't think its flesh is worth eating..

Had a CA after the prac ... Oh man.. I didn't know it was 10%. totally didn't prepare for that, and I couldn't finish the essay. Died... Though most ppl also said they couldn't finish or don't know what to write. but that's what everybody alway say even when they could do it... So who to trust..

Currently having second thoughts about going for the YEP. I was all set for it only to know a fren couldn't make it. Though its not a must for me to have a fren to go along, but going for such trips, its always better to go with ppl you are familiar with. Fang is going, and that's good, but her bf is going as well.. So it isn't so nice to tag along all the time... I've more or less gotten use to be alone at times... Now still thinking whether I should proceed. Furthermore, initial plan of heading to Delhi after that seems quite unlikely, cos I just realise how far Bangalore is from Delhi. its a freaking 2062km. Meaning, I can only take the flight. which means more $$... just checked the Air ticket, and it cost $145 before tax.. Faintz.... Train is not an option, cos that would take me at least 2 days. Dilemna.. Decision to be made by sunday. How?!?

Atrocious Pool day

played absolutely crap today. Think I lost to almost everybody I played with today.. With a few occasional wins.... Really tired from the past few days, and my brain is simply refusing to switch off and rest. Just like now, I'm half dead, with 3 hrs of sleep for the past 2days, I'm still seated infront of the com, don't know doing what... zzz ... Should just pop some sleeping pills to knock out....

Calculus CA

Had the Calculus CA just now.. Was a bit tough.. Didn't know how to do 2qn, haiz.. Sadz... Don't know how I'll fare for it.. At least its over.. only a mere 10%, but studying and preparing like hell.. Crazy module..

Is it right to take back anything that you've already given a person ? I don't think so. but what if the person insist on returning you ? It's a real dilemna... I guess sometimes, to solve some issues, its better to accept it, perhaps its better in the long run. Just got back something from a fren, I think some ppl should know what I'm refering to.

Planing to go for YEP to India, Organised by the Pharm ppl. was asked by fang to join in this trip. I've always wanted to go for a YEP trip. So this could be a nice chance for me to experience it. Though India wasn't my Ideal place to go, nonetheless, everyplace has its own unique experience to gain. Actually didn't really ask my parents for it, Just told them that I'm going, think they were a bit sad, cos my sis is going to Europe during that period of time too. both kids not around, can't help but fill sad I guess. Anyway, its just a thought, get Hua feng to join me, but it seems that he has met with some objections from his parents, need to see how he negiotiate with them.. awaiting his reply. Also need to go through the interview. not 100% can get in either... Shall see how it goes...

Zzz.. I must be nuts. Drank Red Bull just now before the Calculus paper, to get my already tired body to be alert. and now, I'm still awake, just finish playing game. Couldn't help but reward myself with some entertainment. But I've lesson at 8am. Die lar.. confirm cannot wake up in time... tomorrow is a long long day... pool session will not be as good, due to my lack of rest..

Going for World of Wonder

Whee... My sis just bought the Tix to David Copperfields' World of Wonder. Yeah.. going to see the Master of illusion performing right infront of my own eyes. Really looking forward to that, which would be coming in 1 months' time, on 3rd Nov. Was quite lucky to get the first row of the $128 tix. Should have quite a good view from there. I was still thinking about whether to go for the show when I saw the price... but this time round, my sis is treating me to the show, as part of my 21st B'Dae gift. hahah... Nice.. Thanks Sis.. Will be going to watch it with my sis, her bf and her Bf's bro. Erm... perhaps soon to be family.. lolx... Wondering whether that will come in the following yr...

Yest night went to run around 9pm. and by the time I'm back, it was 11.30pm, which was then that I had my dinner... or more like a supper perhaps.. but I've got no choice, Since I can't eat hours before running. So had to run with an empty stomach. And I realised one thing, I can't sleep after the run.. I was super awake.. I know that running releases Endorphin, which would make you happy, and also makes you more alert... but usually after running more than 15km, I would be too tired to feel the effect, and would just fall asleep. I guess I was just not that tired yestereday, and I couldn't sleep till 2.30am..ARhz... was rolling and flipping on the bed. Damn.. caused me to be sleepy while attending the ever boring Organic lecture. Fighting hard against the Zzz Monster... Which I failed at times.. lolz..
