hihi everyone. long time no 'see'. how's life? still a bugger? yes i noe, if not it wun be called 'life' le. it'd be called paradise. haha but no matter how much life sux sometimes, there're gd things abt life.

uni's been hectic. seriously hectic. to think abt it, i haf 5 modules (1 of which is actualli juz a seminar where i think they grade u based on attendance so technically, i onli haf 4 existing modules). for the 1st module stats n quantitative mtds, i onli haf one comment. i absolutely hate it la. it's like maths but not like maths at the same time. hm.. n i haf to revise all my A lvl stuff again. need to take my file back frm ms lai since she borrowed it for her tuition class. gg to c her this teacher's day i think. hopefully can get the file back then. AND the worst thing abt stats is tt it has a case study tt every grp muz do every bloody wk. wat kinda case study does stats haf la, seriously. digustingly boring. n muz do write up every wk some more. gross! i could barely keep myself awake during the tutorial. which is pretty bad.

the next module: organizational behaviour n design. tt's not so bad. i mean, at least i understand wat's gg on, u noe? tmr'll be my fiiiiirst tutorial in like 3 wks? haha cos for some strange reason, we always miss our tutorials. not on purpose though, mind u. but i heard frm my fren tt obd tutorials are quite fun. so i hope it's true.

then we've got econs module. i'm seriously wondering WHY IN THE WORLD i didnt opt out of econs when i had the bloody chance to, u noe. WHY? WHY? TELL ME WHY! it's like wat we learnt in jc, onli harder n it analyzes things at a much deeper n complicating n not to mention confusing level. wat's up with tt? so i haf to revise my econs all over again cos the info seems to be jumping all over the place. n i think it's rather embarrassing tt as an ex-econs student who took econs n got a fairly gd grade in it (gd enough to opt out IF I WANTED TO), i dunno how to do my tutorials. feel like digging a hole in the grnd n burying myself la, sometimes.

the last but definitely definitely not least module: marketing. my gdness. mkting is the most interesting yet most complicating subject i've ever seen n studied la. thk gdness it's onli for one semester. if i had to study tt for all of my 3 yrs, i dunno if tt'll be gd or bad.. *shakes head to clear it of weird thoughts* hm.. i seriously need to read up on mkting. more n more research needs to be done, too. my mkting tutor, btw, seems to haf knowledge abt everything under the sky la. n tt alone, deserves my respect. but respect doesnt seem to account for any AUs lei. hm.

tmr's thurs. a rather slack day compared to tues, wed n fri, since on all 3 days my lessons allllllll start at 0830. wat an inhumane hr. n yyyyyyy are allllllllll the lects 2 hours long? dun they noe tt aftr abt 35 min, our brain starts to either shut down or go haywire? no wonder they say uni students are all a bit cuckoo up there. now i noe y. n my lessons on those 3 days are super long... like, 3 lessons every day? meaning 6 hrs?

seriously la, it can get super tiring. esp since i slp at 2-3am every nite. no wonder my head banged against the table yst during the stats lect. in fact, im getting a liiiiiittle slpy rite now. *shakes head in futile attempt to keep myself awake* mb i'll drink coffee. which i dun usually drink cos it's not frm starbucks. hm. beggars can't be choosers, i guess. haha

i can afford to slp ltr tonight, or rather earli next morn. haha. cos my lesson starts at 1230. and it's my onli lesson, in spite of it STILL being 2 hours. nth's less than 2 hours lor.

IBG (Inter-Block Games) have started. tmr's volleyball. mb i'll go down tmr to c how things go. but then again i need to go for some jap appreciation club thingy. some welcome tea, if im not wrong. but it sounds tiring. since it's frm 1730 to like 2100. then aftr 2100 no more shuttle bus some more - haf to walk back to hall in the dark by myself. eyeer. scary. kowaii~ =S

moving on to other aspects of life. wun say much. but let's juz say im treading on dangerous grnd. some things u juz can't control, can u?

hiya peeps~ it's a thursday of the second wk of sch. not too bad, i suppose. studying takes a little bit more effort since i've been away frm bks for gdness noes how long. but i guess it'll be worse for the guys, ain't it? they've been away frm bks for an even longer period of time. but oh wells. the modules i'm currently studying are:
AB103 - Statistical and Quantitative Methods
AB105 - Organizational Behaviour and Design
AB106 - Principles of Economics
AB112 - Marketing
AB114 - Communication Management Fundamentals

tell me if it sounds boring. cos i certainly think so. haha but it's all rite. i think i felt much better than when i first took the modules, when i didn't understand anything of them. haha but now tt i understand a little bit more of the chapters, i guess it ain't so bad aftr all. anw i haf to learn how to like it ma.. i'll be taking it for life. :S

woke up earli morn today at 7.15am. actualli, tt's the time i need to wake up at almost everyday, except for monday, when i haf my off day frm sch. (yay!) so lessons start at 0830 every tues, wed and fri. and wat's worse is tt all the lessons are super long la~~~ i mean, 2 hours per lesson?? too much. definitely too much. didn't they hear tt the longest concentration period of an average human being is only abt 45 min? well, i guess they think (or rather, hope) tt we're not juz average human beings, now tt we're in uni. and it doesnt exactly help tt the tutors are essentially boring. esp the stats one. a boring tutor with a boring module. perfect match. bleah.

on the brighter side of life, i like uni. reli. it's so much more.. free, i suppose. it gives me the freedom to do a lot more things i didn't usually do in the past. like.. stay up suuuper late in the night and still wake up earli in the morn for lessons (wonder if tt's a gd thing or not - my eye bags are allllllll coming out. heh). but most imptly, i guess uni life reli is more abt the frenz and pple u noe here. or else, it's rather hard to survive in sch, i think. i'm not tt close to those pple in my tutorial grps, but rather closer to those peeps in blk 69, hall 15. (whoosh jaggers rocks!)

speaking of which, i was juuuuust elected block rep of blk 69. haha. altogether there are 4 block reps frm each blk, frm blk 69 to 72 of hall15. hm i dunno how i feel lei, reli. the responsibility i'm abt to take on once i step out of my bedroom door ltr, in abt 15 min time at 0830 is kinda scary. but i can deal with it. aftr all, i'm not alone ma. :) hm next yr i'm prob gonna run for grp leader (GL), for FOC (freshmen orientation camp) 2007. either a GL or a SA (senior attached), with the latter having less responsibilities to handle lor. but i think being a GL is essentially more fun lei. and freshies (like us) bond more with the GLs rather than the SAs. hm ltr need to meet the rest of the block reps for some stuff to settle aftr yst's block supper (an event where everyone frm the blk comes down to the lounge for supper. at 9pm - which is kinda dumb, i think). there's gonna be another block supper 2 mths frm now. the new block reps are supposed to prepare it then. haha any suggestions, anyone? :)

hm, so yeah. life ain't tt bad. :)

it's been such a super duper long time since i've updated my blog, huh? yup. so get prepared. this is gonna be a long entry.

hm i dun think i mentioned this even though it did cross my mind to, but i got into hall of residence 15 of NTU hostel. no air con, but the hall orientation camp/freshmen orientation camp (FOC) was damn gd. damn fun. rite now im like black and peeling all over frm the sunburn but oh well, it reli was fun. for once i dun mind being dark. but if onli the darkening process came without the peeling. n im like wondering if this time it'll be like the other times - where my skin would peel and then voila, the skin underneath is still of the same shade. haha so somehow i nvr reli did get dark for long before i became fair (NOT white) again.

hm our grp name was called Jaggers. cool, rite? even though it kinda sounds a bit aggressive, the way i hear it. but anw our grp was reli bonded and i'm reli proud to be part of them, rather than the other 3 groups - Euphoria (Eupho for short), Iris or Viva. Viva sounds nice, doesnt it? but their grp leader v scary cos she's so competitive and u can tell frm her face sometimes tt she'll do anything just to win.

7 days of camp came and went by. went to east coast park and sentosa and other places. tt explains my current colour and shade. haha but sentosa's reli reli nice. one day i'll ask my frenz along to go there too. marie and naf etc, heard tt? :) it's nice, reli. the sand (at least) is cleaner than tt at east coast park. not to mention the sea over there. at least i dun feel so grossed out when i go in the water. but everything's A ok at sentosa. :)

hm and wat's camp without cute guys, am i rite? haha wun say much la but i'm juz gonna say the seniors (those guys who are at least 3 yrs older than us girls) are better than those freshie guys (even though they're still 2 yrs older than us). haha oh well, give them time and mb they'll blossom.

yst night there was this dinner and dance thingy. the attire was clubbing wear. i dun reli haf tt kind i guess. and not to mention i'm not even sure how those clothes lk like since i dun go clubbing at all. but i wore a top and jeans anw. it reli was like clubbing. the music wasn't half bad - i'd give the programmers credit for tt. the pple dancing weren't too rough, so it was all rite on the dance floor too. plus the situation wasn't tt bad nor chaotic even though there was pple frm all 16 halls of residence in the single nanyang audi cos of where i was standing, i suppose. cos i was standing beside this reli nice senior most of the time. i dun reli noe him la. i onli noe he was one of the two chief programmers for the FOC last wk. i dun even noe if he's staying in the same block as i am. (each hall has 4 diff blocks). but anw he was reli nice cos when it got super crowded in the back and pple started moving and pushing, he helped me get a little in front and then he stood behind me so tt i wun get pushed. and then aftrwards when i wanted to leave cos i was getting tired and i had a 4 hr double lecture this morn starting frm 0830, he helped me get out of the place and still placed his hand on the side of my head to avoid pple frm hitting my head. so nice rite? n i dun even noe him lor. haha oh and it helps tt he's reli cute, too. haha but i think he got gf alr. oh wells.

oh abt my rmie. she's nice. but a bit blur and absent minded sometimes la. and she's quite pretty too, i think. almost everyone else thinks so too. but i think i c her everyday so got not much comments oso. haha she likes to club so last night she came back to the room at abt 2 am. i was abt to fall aslp then when she came back into the room. i came back to the hall this aftrnoon at 1 to find her still aslp la. haha wild one sia. but she said she fell aslp at 5 cos the grp of pple who came back late had supper in the hall lounge. haha n she's blur cos she didnt even lock the doors when she came back in to slp. i didn't lock the doors when i went to slp last nite either cos she didn't bring her keys. so i had to leave the door closed but unlocked. haha oh wells i think she kinda went a bit too high last night.

oh anw tonight my rmie beatrice's fren is hosting some kinda bd party at club momo. and cos im her rmie, of cos im the first one she asked. and of cos it's kinda hard to turn her down. haiz. but oh well, i think got quite a few pple frm our grp gg. so it shldnt be that bad. it's some national day countdown. nvr reli been in such events before so i guess it'll be an eye-opener. besides, no sch tmr. muahaha hooray.

speaking of which, i had my first lect in uni today. my gdness. it was like so boring la. n i didn't reli understand much of wat the lecturer said la. so it was reli 2 hrs of confusion. then aftr tt was another lect. econs lect. tt wasn't tt bad since the lecturer was kinda fun. but it was reli still v boring cos i've learnt it in jc le. so my fren n i bailed halfway thru the lect. so technically i onli sat thru 3 hrs of lect. which was still a feat, if u ask me. my gdness la. double lect.. sure die one lor. plus i haf it every tues and wed i think. but i dun haf classes on monday, which is kinda gd cos i can then go home on fri evening and go back to the hall onli on mon evening instead of sun evening. :)

okie. gg to decorate my room and bulletin board le. and then gg to read thru the bloody thick notes given today. oh and muz print notes oso. xian. haha till next time then~ ciao~
