the week has been more exciting than the past weeks
monday was as usual boring boring tutorials
i serioulsy think my stats tutor is legendary
she said "actually i don't understand the answer myself"
wow, thanks for your honesty
i am totally amazed and of course i realised that stats will be self study from now on
my econs tutor is not an econs tutor
she doesn't anwser the tutorial questions from an economic point of view
rather, her way of answering makes me feel like i am in some civics moral class
GOSH
only my accouting tutor is good, which i am seriously thankful for pls
oh, and there was some bazaar at the south spine
selling like cheap stuff la
and i saw cheap board games
totally happy! haha
i bought like spongebob monopoly for $10, pooh bear uno for $2 and travel set connect 4 for $2.50
SUPER CHEAP. SUPER HAPPY. HAHAHAHA
this is the only kind of cheap thrills you can get when u live in some isolated island

tuesday was a day spent in hostel alone with my OB readings
haha

wednesday was a day full of lectures
before the biobiz lecture, my class girls discussed about houseman and the pains of childbirth
dun ask me why we went to that kind of topics
but i seriously think childbirth is like SUPPPPPPER painful and torturous
was quite an eye opener
so everybody reading this pls be nicer to your mums, not just on mother day
hahaha
and i went for my first biobiz lect
i think should change to copy-like-mad lect
cos we are suppose to summarize what the speaker say for our assignment
so as kiasu singaporen students, we totally just copy down the slides of the speaker
i even copied the diagrams la
haa, but i seriously don't mind cos its not that horrifying as the social issue elective
after the lect went back to hall and get changed den went to the src basketball court
it was my hall basketball girls semi-finals
was quite worried since we only had like 8 people
and some of our main players are not on form
and i totally scared i kenna sub in la since i cannot really play
haha
and we saw our opponent with like full team
the match was damn exciting la, very tight match
and our opponents had like endless stream of players to sub
but its okay. cos we won in the end! HOHO
super happy. my heart almost drop out in the end cos the match was seriously too intense
yup. after the match we went to the badminton court and watch cheerleading
supposedly some biggest event in NTU, hall opening ceremony
den all the cheerleaders will go cheer
was quite sad for my hall since they made quite a few mistakes
but they did super nice and challenging moves
it would be superb if they had succeeded in all
yup. and we got 3rd for cheerleading, not bad right. haha
after cheerleading went for dinner/supper with the bball girls
was quite fun, long time no team dinner/supper
den i went back
bathed and did my laundry
read thru OB and went to sleep
was super tired

thursday had econs lect and OB sem
OB seminar ended early like 4
but the stupid shuttle bus took too long to come
ok, also blame it on my laziness of walking back to hall
i totally rely on shuttle bus now, seldom walk to and fro to school liao
i reached hall at like 440
i havent packed my stuff, totally won't make it in time before peak hour to get a cab
so guess what i did
ask jirong come to my hall and play connect 4
HAHAHAHAHA
jirong is secretly talented and good in playing connect 4 can
me and lou kenna like thrash by him for dunnoe how many times
only managed to like win him 2 times which was super tyco cos he wasnt focusing
haha. current addiction is connect 4! stimulates ur brain lo!
after that we went to canteen 5 to pack dinner
we decided to try the bubble tea there only to turn out to be huge disaster
cos apparent the bubble tea is not made with pearls but rather some unknown "pearls" that taste weird and are not chewy
AHEMMMM
so we only like drank less than half of the whole cup and threw it away
i know its wasteful but it was seriously horrible
den lou went for her wsc
i rotted in hall and pack my stuff
went down at like 8 plus to go home
i seriously HATE cab drivers now
they totally just put on call/busy when there are like NO PEOPLE in the cab can
or they pass you den put green light
SLAP SLAP SLAP
i waited until i was too frustrated, decided to call cab
den once i got a cab that is coming
i saw an empty cab!
haha. this is the first time i did this, i flagged the empty cab
the driver stopped and i hop on, den i cancelled my booking
hahaha, cab now very expensive okay
and my cab fare was like $20
pls compare to last week when me and lou stupidly took during peak hour
peak hour is from 5-8
hahahaha
so you don't take during peak hour is still okay provided you get a cab

hmmm, i bought coffee prince vcd yesterday. shall watch it during new year
its really secretly addictive
oh, and now i remember, me and lou were weirdly addicted to que sera sera ost on tues night. haha

ok last but not the least

SENG RI CHU KA HAMIDA JAEJOONG OPPA!

you've turned 22! hoho
pls stay

as hot and handsome as ever

as pretty and happy as always

and as dorky as always!

HOHO

another week has flown past again

anw last saturday i met jingting at ps for lunch
ate ajisen
but due to the fact that i had a super full breakfast all thanks to my mum
i almost died while eating ajisen
yup, walk around for awhile
wanted to buy purple nail polish to prepare for the upcoming single, purple line by my boys but carnt seem to find nice colours
now i am actually contemplating whether to highlight my hair purple. haha
den after that went to wsc session

sunday
i woke up early! like 8am
i went to the gym. HOHO
exercise is good
i ran 3km
did 80 leg extensions - which i deeply regretted because my whole thigh hurt for the week
and some other weights
feeeeels goood
ahahha. shall really try to continue to visit the gym everyweek from now

monday
i woke up early in the morning
like 6am
guess what i did
to watch EHB episoide part 2 with dbsk
i woke up early because on sunday night the internet connection at hostel was just too slow
couldnt load finish at all
so i gave up, slept early and woke up early to watch EHB
EHB was a little disappointing because they edited out so much of changmin parts
bias-poks. but still there are funny moments la
den went for my stats tutorial at 830am
stats tut was like -_-
firstly, i carnt hear my teacher
she's practically whispering
secondly, i carnt see the words on the powerpoint slides cos its seriously small
thirdly, my tcher keeps confusing us with the wrong ans
so i spent my time surfing soompi bcos our clsroom had laptops for each and everyone of us
and later i found out that my tcher is actually one of the lousiet
but what to do, in order for my 3-day work week to stay, i haf to sacrifice my stats

after stats tutorial was accounting tutorial
which was not bad
i quite like my teacher so yay (:

den had lunch break from 1230-230
den i had my econs tutorial
my econs tcher's from nepal
another -_- tutorial
cos she writes so slowly
and econs at the uni level is really weird
or either that my knowledge is too rusty
cos i carnt seem to understand some of the things now
GOSH. major throw face

yup. and my day ended at 430
and it was pouring so i had to take a shuttle bus back
the very ironice thing was i actually brought an umbrella on sunday
and i had an umbrella in my hostel
but i just didnt bring it. tsk tsk

when i went back to hall, slept first
den i was tortured during the night by many OB readings

tuesday
crashed NUS. haha
went to have lunch with jingting
at the famous indonesian stall which was advertised on tv
seriously not bad
and i went to macs and ate large curly fries and drank a big cup of milo
totally stuffing myself with food
den after lunch went to meet tracy at the science fact
den we took a cab back to my hall
the 2 of them stayed for awhile and left

wednesday
had accounting and stats lecture in the morning
den afternoon went for my elective lecture
which was just totally traumatising
i thought i would like that elective since i roughly glanced thru the syllabus and it seems interesting
until the tcher showed us this video called "quest for fire"
which was totally just AHEM. i shant elaborate further
its actually a movie about primitive men searching for fire and blah blah
and since its primitive, there is not a single drop of english in the whole show
so the actors were communicating in barbaric language
after the show he continued lecturing
and i carnt seem to understand the stuff
and it was information overload
so conclusion, i decided to drop my elective after that traumatising class

my class ended at 6
went back hall to put my stuff
den went to can 2 and meet poh lu and stanley for steamboat
was not bad just that the fire is scary
and that was when stanley told me there was appeal for biobiz elective
which is a super hot elective la
just haf to email the prof can get alr
so after dinner i went back
drop my elective and email the prof
yup, and i got the elective so YAY!
whats so good about the elective is there is no exams (:
and most of my clsmates are taking that also
so its good to have company
and i heard the bell curve grade is not bad
so yay, as long as its not that social issue in sci & tech elective

thursday
woke up feeling excited
haha
went for econs lecture
which was like slap slap
the lecturer just sucks
like make me confuse over econs!

after that went for OB seminar
which was exciting for some reasons until some other things happened that negate the whole thing
SIGH
almost everyone knows my dirty little secret. aha

and i am truly sorry towards my nanpyung after that sem
i am self-repenting now so yes. i know i was wrong. haha

/edit
i actuallly forgot to blog about this important incident
because my lesson was from 1030 to 430 straight without much break
didnt actually haf lunch
so i went back hall
me and lou decided to go canteen 13 to have korean food
it was a happy trip until we reached the canteen korean stall
and we saw alot flies flying around
was still okay until we bought our bibimbap and sat down
it was like"the attack of the flies"
there was seriously alot of flies that we couldnt even eat
we were like busying swating away the flies
it was quite horrifying because we saw people around us eating peacefully without any attack of the flies
so we decided to change our seats
it was peaceful for a moment until the flies attacked us again
so we just ate and swat the flies at the same time
and you know what, 2 other people sat next to us with korean food also
they were also attacked by the flies
my conclusion?
flies are attracted to korean food
or either that the flies are the descendants of korean flies or sth
cos when we finished our food, the flies stopped pestering us
GOSH. i never want to go canteen 13 for korean food ever! horrifying!

and i also cannot believe i forgot to blog abt our expensive cab fare back
i think we are both very blur to the taxi fare rates
we purposely wait till 7 to take cab
because we think its not the peak hour
so we hopped onto the cab once we got down from hostel
like last sem, we usually have to wait like super long for a cab
now cabs are everywhere on the campus
the journey was fine until was saw the extra surcharge meter
at katong
it was a whooping $7+ bucks
and the taxi fare was about $20+ alr
OHMYGOD
in the end, the journey from ntu to tanah merah cost a whooping $36+ bucks
this is murder please
someone pls tell me why is it so expensive!
i never want to take cab home alr!
i shall try to devise a method not to bring so many books home so i can take public transport back
RAH
/edit

today-friday
spent my whole day at home
doing tutorial
actually not cos i was quite distracted by the internet
i watched like super alot of videos
and even bought another bag and 2 outerwear online
AHEM
and suddenly i am quite into the coffee prince show
was thinking of buying it and watching it during new year!
haha. yup

in quite a big dilemma whether to highlight my hair purple
i am afraid it won't turn out nice
if i don't do it, i think i will just get a purple manicure for new year

support purple line!
it was #1 on the oricon chart the first day it was released!
HOHO
my boys are no longer secretly hot
they are damn hot not!

alright, shall go back to ploughing that econs book ):

a new semester again

courses i am taking this semester
AA102-Accounting II
AB103-Statistics and Quantitative Methods
AB105-Organisational Behaviour
AB106-Principles of Economics
CS802-Social Issue in Science and Technology

4 core modules and 1 elective
i hope it will be alright since stats and econs have been taught before in jc and the lectures i had so far are quite okay except for the fact that the lecturers are not in the least entertaining
i am abit afraid for the social sci elective because there is project work and the project seems difficult and i don't really know anybody in the class. i feel like a freshman all over again just that i seem to dislike socializing as the days go by
but i am quite interested in the topics that will be taught and since its like a prescribed elective i have to clear somehow, may as well just study
the most i SU that stupid elective loh. haha

alright. first week of school was just boring
but there are like 3 tutorials to complete all by monday
me and lou were kinda tortured by the new topics and tutorials on wednesday night when we tried to attempt them
i was doing stats. reading the book was just weird because florence nightingale appeared in my textbook and tons other rubbish which i just skip becuase there are not relevat at all
lou was doing accounting. and this week topic was on ethics. haha. reading the book was quite bizarre also because when she opened the book there was this shakespear quote

"This above all: to thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man"

AHEM, somebody pls tell me what that quote means

and then there was this even weirder quote

"From here that looks like a bucket of water, but from an ant's point of view, it's a vast ocean; from an elephant's point of view, it's just a cool drink; and to a fish, of course, it's home."
- Norton Juster, The Phantom Toll Booth

GOSH, what is this doing in an accounting textbook on ethics?!
but that quote got us laughing like forever. like super funny

then the stupid tutorial has questions like "should james call his friend". totally -_-

econs lect was not so bad
things were learnt back in jc. so relax
just that the lecturer is a MCP and he carnt really pronounce ceteris paribus and the fact that he has taught for over 10 years makes it even more -_-
but i do pity the people who didnt take econs before because they are going to use 3 months to learn the things that was taught over 2 years. first lecture only we were taught up all the way to elasticity. i think i will die if i didnt take econs before

organisational behavouir (OB) looks digusting because there is so many things to read and there is this creative thinking/writing segment where you have to looks at bizarre pictures and write an assignment, sth like that
which is BAD because i am nowhere near creative or artsy

alright. enough of schoolwork
met up with rena at jp this week and visited her hall.
haha, definitely eye opener for me, esp the things she and her roommate studies
makes me thankful for what i am studying. lol

going to meet jingting tmr for lunch and pass her dbsk 2nd asia tour concert
yup
and hopefully i can hit the gym on sunday morning since my timetable is 3 day work week
allows me more time on the weekend
yup, have been sick this week but i am getting well soon so hopefully can go
i need to exercise and stop snacking so much when i am doing work
its mind over matter. haha

exploring the human body episoide with dbsk part 1 was hilarious
my changmin was so cute with his bowtie and cute voice :D
eunhyuk got me laughing like mad
cannot wait for the upcoming episoide this sunday. haha
and changmin is such a good boy because he secretly went to clean up the oil spill in korea
what can i say, he has a kind heart. muahaha

oh, and i have wireless at home now. YAY
internet and youtube loads faster
but i haf to control the amount of videos i watch. ahha

alright, i guess thats all
i am happy that i have longer weekends from now on. HOHO!
