hah this is my first entry for this year 2007...erm but its already like 4 jan already:(
These few days are really very tiring, too many things to do...too many deadlines and too little time. Why do that always happens??? Although this week have lots elearning, don't need to go for a few lessons but need to come back for test review as well as project submissions.
So tired...even if there is 2 weeks of holidays but i still never get enough sleep and rest...now still have to do final touch up and final editing. I never got the time to revise all the stuff that we have learnt, i am going to forget everything already. There is only like 1 more month till the exams already. I don't even know whether i will have enough time to finish studying.
Just watching tv just now, they were saying that they want to be 18 every year but to me although i just turned 18, i don't want the figure to go up anymore...really!!!
I think age is really catching up on me, really cannot not sleep enough...i will feel so sleepy and restless the whole day.
Got ma and rfa results yesterday, one was good and one was a little disappointment. Well still have 2 more tests next week...hopefully it will be good. So many elearning activities to do...the instructions are ovewhelming and confusing until i am super blur.
I really need a good rest and some time to recharge myself before i can charge towards my goals for my final exams.

i always alwasy wanted to blog regularly but can't find the time to do so... and now i am like blogging every one month or so.
just after my last entry was my birthday and my beloved friends had a very surprised party for me. 1 of them said she couldn't come becos she was sick but actually she was arranging the surprise. the other 2 brought me to where we were supposed to have lunch then suddenly may appeared and i was like din't you say you were sick? and we crapped a little then the waiter came with a cake and a bouquet of flower and sang the birthday song along the way. I was like in shock but i came back quickly. I was very touched by them and so thankful to have such dear friends:) I LOVE YOU ALL: May Soo and Peiyi!!!
we walk around bugis and went marina where we start to rot and took a lot of silly photos but it was fun. Had la mian for dinner which was delicious, tasted like the crystal jade one:)
Then on tues 28th, my classmates and the 3 birthdays were supposed to go out then in the morning cai and carlin hid at the underpass and waited for us. They were with a cake and sang birthday song as well, second surprise for the week. Very touched and surprised and thankful as well. We went kbox after school and ate dinner together too. Thank you guys, i really appreciated it:)
alrite now is already nearing christmas means that the year is coming to an end already, its really fast how one year just passed like that. Sometimes when i think back what i have done this year i can't really recall anything, not even anything that should be very memorable. Well now is my 2 weeks holidays right after my common test which i don't pin any high hopes on. There is a chinese saying, the higher your expectation are, the greater the disappointment is. So i try not to think about it and just wait for the results.
These few days have been doing projects. Super sian. From morning to evening everyday, my brian is a bit dead already. Everyday got not enough sleep then keep yawning during the project discussion. Last week, went to celebrate peiyi's birthday but the surprise din't really worked out. But never mind hope that she like the celebration and the present.
Went out with my meimei on sat to get lots of things...chritsmas cards, planner n finally my bag. the lesh imp people gave me such a big paper bag to put my bag and i keep knocking it to other people, like so bad. Then we rushed to lido to get my sister's uniform regardless of our very painful legs because we got blisters all over our feet. we were rushing because we wanted papa to fetch us home:)
Sunday went to bedok with mama and meimei to walk walk in the end it rain non-stop but we still went ahead, had kfc for break and its been ages since we ate together then we went over to the This Fashion at chinatown to get clthes for new year for my mum. After looking for so long, finally we found one that my mum can wear...hehe.
After so many days of had work from mon to wed, we had some retail therapy yeaterday and i practically walked the whole of orchard and i managed to get a skirt for presentation. Today i finally have a day off and sleep as much as i want. Going out with huisi later to get some presents:) And sat is back to trudy's to do project, so sad, saturday still have to do project. Then sunday have christmas party at my aunt's house, woohoo got turkey...hehe
to all out there...have a Merry christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
*polymates: enjoy your hols*

i wanted to blog long a go but can't find the time to. When i wanted to blog the other time then i got disconnected so many times so i gave up.
well have been very busy these 2 weeks, busy with tutorials, projects and outing:P
Last week i quickly rush out all my tutorials during the weekdays so i could go out during the weekends without any worries. So sat i brought my younger sister out as it was her birthday. Brought her to cine to have lunch at pastamania first then went over to heeren, taka then to suntec. Byt the time we reached suntec we were dead tired but we still walk around until we found the kopitiam where we had our rest and a ice cream durian ice kacang...ooh its very good:)
After that i brought her to the arcade where we played a drum machine then she was like a mad woman hitting it regardless of the beat. We went to marina square to meet my elder sister then we got clothes for my meimei for birthday present. Wanted to eat at marina but then dad and mum can't find a parking lot so we went over to ps to pick my brother up and we had dinner at billy bombers over at The Cathay. Had a very filling dinner then we went to get cake for the birthday girl as well:)
Sunday i went out with may and soo, we went to vivocity...which was a very wrong choice. We shouldn't have gone there during the weekends, it was super duper crowded. Once i saw the crowd i got a headache...felt like fainting la, the whole place was like so chaotic. Well but we managed to walk finisht he whole place because we were just walking around and looking at stuff. So we went over to orchard for dinner before going home.
On tuesday, cai and car were supposed to go watch movie but tan wanted to get stuff at orchard so we all went with her. Rach, trudy car and me had Mac's for lunch while waiting for cai and tan to finish their lesson. On the way there, rach and i were taking photos with cai's phone...then we splitted ways when we alighted at heeren. We went to look at the flops that trudy wanted but they don't have...so we went to take neoprints...took a long decorating, too long never take already then don't know what to do. We went over to taka as well, i finally know where is pull and bare. then we went over to far east to get shoes...this tan and rach got themselves so many things then they keep asking me to buy things as well. But i have nothing in mind to get so i went home empty handed...hehe
Had aerobics on friday straight from 6 pm to 9pm...actually the lesson was until 7 30 only where we did kickbox and stretching...my goodness we did push ups as well and my arms are aching like siao now. then we stayed back to get the performance for red's camp figured out and settled. By the time i reached home, it was about 10 already. Bathed and on my laptop to do my tax tutorial...but looking at the screen i felt like sleeping. I only did about half of tax then i went to sleep, i couldn't tahan anymore...hehe
yesterday went to meet my huisi and jada, we walked around ps the whole and i didn't know that i could stay in 1 shopping mall for the whole day. I usually walk many places:) Whenever i go out with them, they will definitely get things that they wanted in mind and what i see the whole day is them taking out their nets card and pressing their pin numbers. And what i did? I just stand at the side and advise because i don't feel like buying anything and even so i am going out quite a few times later on so ya must save. We met hui for dinner and we had a great catching up session...its been ages since i last saw them.
Going to meet soo may and peiyi at bugis later...so happy!
But come to think of it, after these few days of outings then i am stucked at home again. Tests are coming up and i really don't know whether i can finish my topics or not. I haven't even finish typing my blaw notes. Then my 2 weeks of break after the test are like burnt as well. Somany projects to submit after the break. MA,FIT,BLAW and RFA!!! So many!!! I still need my christmas break, my new year break and my gathering with my friends as well as my shopping trip for presentation clothes. 2 weeks is definitely not enough for me. Well let's not think about that now, what i must do now is concentrate on my studies for my test...i don't want to get results that will make me regret forever.
so to my friends out there: Let's all work hard for our tests and get out As...if we can:)

I'm back for updates:)
well the week has been alrite for me, had jap reading test which was quite alright, should not have problem passing the module:) tutorials are getting a bit harder, notes getting length-ti-er and my concentration span getting shorter...haha. Had to stay back on tues to do fit project, not bad we managed to get things started unlike others times that we always talk and crap the whole way throught the first meeting. When we were about to leave, we were like snatching for the allocation of work to do which was hilarious. Went back home to do rfa tutorial and trudy asked me questions about the F.Ss which i haven't done at that point of time so i went to do it with her until 1 30am...yawns...
The tutors are getting a bit more normal or maybe i am getting used to the way they teach so the tutorials were alrite. On friday, after lecture i had nothing to do and this maymay always paisei me and do others stuff, leaving me with a bunch of pple whom i don't know. Well but i managed to do a bit MA before the start of aerobics. I felt so stupid when i was doing the MA tutorial because my group is suppose to present ans for qn 3 in the tutorial because it looks the shortest and easier but it turned out that the qn 1 & 2 were like the lecture illustration. I was like ahhhhhhhhhhh...SO STUPID!!!
Finished all my tutorials on sat and it took me like 1.5 hrs to read the fit notes, i amost fell asleep while reading it. Went to tiong bahru market to have brunch on sun...the queues were all so long but my parents still queue because they wanted to try the food which indeed is good! Was too bored to have nothing to do so i went to highlight my FRS booklet for the past 4 lectures:) Watched tv and studied a bit for the jap speaking test the next day.
Had the jap speaking test today, the tempo for the whole lesson was so fast...we went through a little of the hiragana words and practice a bit then we draw lots for our partners. I got the number 2 and was in the first pair with another girl. So scary...i stumbled a little but was alrite...the teacher said it was not bad so i felt a bit more relieved. Then i waited for cai then tan and rach to finish, the lesson finished like 3pm then rach and i went to bugis to get guava...poor rach had to carry so many things home...everything added up to about 6kg? then we went home...back to projects and tutorials but also plannings for meeting with my friends:)
Going out with may and soo on this sun then out with hui, huisi and jada next sat:) Really missed them...but all the best for the remaining A level papers:)

Time flies...its the 3rd week of sch already. Time for projects and meetings already. Had tutorials and realised that most of my tutors are either quite like to side track or irritating or talks a lot. But generally they are all quite good tutors if you get used to them. I already had a writing test for jap...hopefully i fare well...having a reading test next week...must study already:(
Last week had public holiday so i went back to work and didn't really have time to do tutorials but lucky i finished them all the previous week. I have my tutorial with a weird tutor, supposed to be the module leader for MA inthe end got changed with maymay's class and i got a irritating tutor that harps on the difference btw a tutorial rep and module rep...like whats the difference la! Then my advisor who is also our tax tutor is pretty nice, she explains everything. My group was supposed to present the whole tutorial for tax and we practically just read the qn then she will explain almost everything.
My blaw tutor looks like snoppy...and he is another one that is very weird. When he asks someones qn, the others are not supposed to help. Then after he say the others can help, the following qn he restricts us again. It makes me so confusing, when to ans and when not to. Had his tutorial today again and he said that he quite like our class and looks forward coming to our class...i don't know whether is it good or bad...Had FIT lecture again today, i didn't listen to lecture last week but then this week's one she say very important so i listened and it's so confusing. The lecturer herself keep tripping her words and makes us even more confusing. I finally understand then i had a hard time explaining to tan and trudy because they are confused by her. I realised that all almost all our modules this sem is really very tough. Very demanding and requires a lot of memorising as well as writting for answers.
I am starting to feel very stressed, i practically rush all my tutorials this week. I feel so unprepared mostly because the previous sat i was working and sunday was my father's birthday. Busy almost everyday and not have time to finish up my homework. I had steamboat at home for papa's birthday...its been a long time since we last ate steamboat together.
Well feeling very random, having lots of thoughts going through my mind...mostly because of the elective thingy. Having to choose elective for the 3rd now is such a torture to me. I am like caught in a dilemma, not knowing which is the best for me and which is something attainable by me. I choose the 6 mths APT, which is pretty risky because it's a grade for the whole sem...so means if i don't do well for the attachment then my whole gpa will be pulled down! Apart from that they wants us to choose a module to study when we go back to sch. I asked like my parents and siblings...they like have no idea as well then i have to decide everything by myself again.
Have been sick for the past few days but feeling better now, can't eat a lot of stuff and it's killing me! I haven't done tutorials for next week yet maybe i shall just push everything to the weekends. Having aerobics tml...so excited...finally i have a CCA:) My friends had started their As already soon i can meet them up...counting down the number of days left before i can see them once again.
*All the best and good luck for your As ok you guys*
I know my sequence of my paragraph is very weird...but i am just feeling very random, just pen down what comes to my mind...bare with this one ok, the next one would be back to normal.

Its the first week of sch and i am starting to feel the stress from lecturers.
We met up earlier on monday to have lunch together and to get materials for our respective language classes. My jap handbook cost me $4 while trudy's french textbook and workbook cost her like $53!!! I was thankful i took jap:) First day of class wasn't that bad...it was quite fun actually just that we can't really make up whats the teacher talking about because she is speaking jap most of the time. But we managed to get throught it and we have a class quiz starting from the 2nd week and its like 5% for each quiz. So stressful la...but it quite fun...hehe
Tuesday had lecture from 9-11 then 12-2, both rfa lectures. Its so theory based and we have to buy this thick stack of FRS booklet which we can take into the exam hall. just having 2 rfa lectures can put me to sleep already. Well but car, rach, dee, cai and i went to heeren to get bra's and yilong's belated birthday presents...both from num...they have such noce classmates to buy them stuff from num:) hehe...we got bra slippers and yilong a shirt but don't have his size so we asked them to call uo the citylink outlet to check. In the meanwhile dee tried a shirt and bought it. The citylink one has the size and it was the last piece. so we headed to citylink to get the shirt and had our little tea break there as we decorate their paper bags. I brought them home because nobody wanted to do so.
Wednesday: went back to sc to have meepok. Met may at the sch gate, she brought sin ee and tiffany along. We ate and we takeaway:) Had a mini tour in the sch and realise all the difference in the sch just 2 years from when i left the sch. The whole sch management is so going to change when there is a change principal. After that i quickly rush back to sch for blaw lecture...its so theory based and we have a project for it. Its a start with all the projects pouring in.
thursday: We went to bugis after fit lecture which i really don't understand what the lecturer was talking about. But we went to get the dried guava and preserved stuff from the hawker centre and we were all like aunties trying out the food there. And the auntie kept asking to try all the food. But in the end we all took like $4 worth of food each only:) then the auntie kept saying that we are so budget...hehe...we walked around bugis street and bought earrings...was looking for bag, but not many nice ones. There is this puma one which is an imitation...cost only $20 la...its so cheap but i didn't get it because i haven't decided yet:)
friday: We had MA lecture in the morning and the lecturer kept saying that our cost acc exam was not well done and many failed the module which reminds me of melvin. He is like tha joker in our class and always irritates me by talking a lot before and after the exams because he always sits behind me. I think he already knows that he will not be staying long so he said all his thank yous and good bye the previous sem. We had a 3 hrs break before the next lecture. We went over to bukit timah plaza for lunch some had chicken noodle and the others kfc. Then we went to have pool, they were playing while tan, dee, jeff and me were having our own entertainment:) when i got bored i started to do my MA tutorial and everybody was staring at me...i had no choice i was going to work after lecture so no choice.
sat: work work and work!!!
sun: had dim sum for lunch with my family, my aunties and my grandmother. Had a very full lunch then i went off with my aunts to walk around before going to work while my family went imm to shop. Went to work like 2 30pm and at the end of the day, my sales was even better than the auntie that work from 11 30am:) have to work all i can now because i am going to stop working already. Must concentrate on my studies and get better grades. I could barely do my tutorials for my first lecture topic...i really have to put in more effort and work harder when there are so much more to study for and do. All the modules are so theory based, my mind will explode when it comes to exam lor. sigh...
*to my fellow sch mates...lets all work hard for our new sem...*
*to my friends taking As this year...work hard and take care...see you guys after your As:)*

ok i just realised that i have not blogged for like a month.
I keeping delaying and delaying because actually there isn't much to blog about but there are some things that happened during this period of time...
1st: timetable selection-
it was horrible, our 23 timetable was terrible so i didn' want to take it so we decided to get 29 but we did not managed to get into the same class together. car rach dee and i are in 29 while the rest are in 22. Why must have this timetable selection for us??? I know that there are some courses that don't have to choose their timetable.
2nd: IS enrolment-
well we didn't managed to get into the same class but we are together for IS. Took Jap and serious fun in e games...never thought that i would take that but rach's friend said it is quite ok so we took it together. But the thing is...its all in the afternoon...i hate afternoon classes but what choice do i have...i did the enrolment for trudy as well because she can't do it in her workplace.
I was on the phone with her while doing it...she is so nervous and it made me very nervous too but i managed to get her into her class:)
3rd: meeting up with huisi and jada-
after doing the IS enrolment i went to meet my beloved friends: huisi and jada:) haven't met them for a while...miss them so much. Had pastamania for dinner then we went to walk around...managed to do some catching up. Then we all have to leave early because jada ad huisi have sch the next day.
4th: family outing-
just 2 days ago was my niece's full month celebration. I took off so my whole family can go see her and attend the celebration. After that, dad drop us off at taka while he goes driving. We went to the mooncake festival at taka and its was damn crowded. Can't even walk in a straight path, had to squeeze in the crowd. Tasted some mooncake but didn't buy any because we wanted to walk around first. the whole trip out was eating and eating...ate jap ice cream then donuts then venenia's ice cream...then spencer left and we went bakerzinn for tea break...the 3 of us was footing the bill all the time...its been a long time we last went out as a whole group.
Went to marina square for dinner at JerkThai with dad as well...the dishes there are really delicious...and its not very ex. We ordered 5 dishes and rice, the bill didn't even exceed $50.
its quite fast...hols ending soon. The whole month have benn working and working...working like a full time...10 hrs a day...so tiring but then i am really satisfied with my pay cheque:)
2 more weeks before sch reopen but then i am still stuck at work...i have lots of things to buy and things to do...how am i going to finish in time???
*well...to all fellow np peeps...enjoy your last few days of hols:)*
