School again week one is over! And so fast tommorrow is week two. Soon it will be week twelve! :(Friday didnt sleep until 4 because I was choosing my choices for PA and I thought I am very indecisive already haha but Abeline and Shermaine just told me they are still choosing. Maybe I never think properly till! Nevermind, I'm comfortable with my choices and managed to know why I chose them haha so now lets hope they will choose me :) Pretty please I really like ur companies hahaha.
I saw a nice clutch bag yesterday at NEX and was choosing between blue and brown. I don't need a clutch bag because I just got one for cny, and I have another one for uhm, NEX trips. Haha. But it's such a steal @ $13 because of a sale and the quality is not flimsy! But I didnt buy cos the girl looks very unethusiastic and I was really feeling sian until I perked up seeing that bag and she was really soft and it was the last piece both for blue and brown and I don't need another one and I just got a bag online and I don't need it!! So I didn't get it!
But I'm kinda lemming for it now back in my tiny house surrounded by my horrible books sigh. I need to study!!!!!!! Maybe I go see again later haha. :(
I don't know what I'm wearing for CNY but it doesn't really matter I just want CNY to be over soon so that I can wear all my new clothes, because I don't know what I want to wear for CNY I kept most of them new and unworn.
Okay no more clothes, Day 2 of school made me felt like school started for 2 hundred years already and I started not talking sense I guess Tkb sort of realised it. It was nice to bump into her (finally!) on a train. I can't say why but its really a coincidence, what are the chances of getting into the same cabin from a different station? Anyways, it was very nice to see her again on wednesday with Jinghan hahaha. :D And it was good to bump into Manhua on thursday and go home with her because thursday was a bad bad day I never really talk to anyone in class and it feels horrible to feel alone in Y2 Sem 2! :( I hope this won't affect my grades in the end and I'm sitting so near the Prof I think I need to speak up soon but nobody I really know well so I'm kinda reserved. Rah. Not like I'm very enthu in other classes though. But it feels funny not to talk to somebody you know but don't know very well.
On the contrary, Employment Law with Prof Dennis is damn nice I like him lah. Especially when he havent really start confusing me yet. He's sooo charismatic haha I shall rate him 2 after Prof Stewart but he's intimidating in some sense with that atas uncle aura. And I finally stepped into WKWSCI but too bad I'll never bump into Cerlyn this whole semester :(
I think I better go read up on 225 module although Prof Trevor's lessons is on wednesday but I think he is a chiongster and one with gusto for his module so I better read properly. Don't think any modules is a breeze this sem yet, as usual and I badly need to do well. I hope I don't lose my way in my modules this semester. Sigh Sigh.
I'm giving up on STARS I guess so hello to Popular Culture CS117 I don't think you are very easy but let's hope my O level Lit helps a little. Big sigh!

Boo. The holidays are ending. This is bad. It felt like I barely did enough things to enjoy myself. Not a very fruitful or exciting holiday break. Haha. But outings with friends made up for it. Havent been blogging for a week plus. I spent my 21st in peaceful, subtle manner. No parties or anything particularly exciting but am happy that I've lived for so long already haha. Okay whatever.The class outing failed which was super sad, and I feel very incompetent and all but all is fine now I've cheered up and I still hope we will meet up the next holidays or something :) School is next week we will bump into each other anyway haha.
Sch is starting. Oh my gosh. Kill me. Results on the early hours of tuesday totally killed me. I don't care. Yes I havent do what I told roomie, but I've tried my best this 2 days. Settled most of the pre-semester stuff, clear my HRYF stuff for now, and I have the next 2.5 days to settle Seminar 1. 208 is sort of testing my determination and ability to stay focused. I shall not start the semester on a bad note, to put it explicitly: I must work harder to prove myself, to pull up my GPA!!!! :)
I hope my new profs are nice. One of them is a VJC alumni lol... So should I take CS117 not!!! :( And stupid NTU gave me some chinese elective module- Muticulturalism in China when I wanted Cultural Intelligence HAHA. :(
No more wasting time no more millionaire city, late nights MSN convos and buying unneccessary stuff formally from 24th Jan. I can survive 4 months. I'm so looking forward to CNY though! :) But there is lessons on cny eves rahh.
Anyway this week I have been staying at home most of the time, spring-cleaned and stocking up for my 4 month war 2.2 (yr 2 sem 2) and doing everything I can before 2.2. Shall not wait for FAL and go print my notes now!!!
Tuesday was a great day spent with neighbours, thanks for the korean bbq meal! I want to recommend this place for other outings because it's soooo goood! But not very worth the money because I can't eat alot of meat at one go lol. And I'm super scared of the smoke and hot oil spurting. :(
I think it will be very comforting to look back in the future that in the 3 short years of uni, I have at least made few friends that really matter and I feel at ease with. At least, all is not wasted.

Am holding to the last days of my pre-adulthood. It feels weird waiting for the actual day to hit you. Well, it's just another birthday after all. Really. :)Had been staying at home for the past two days. Resting and clearing my room as much as I can, read some books, not very constructive though. Am sooo glad to have dug out 4 bags of old stuff to give the recycling people today!
I won my Stars Wars, at the first click! My clicking is getting better than my own luck I think. Hoho.
Last week was a series of maddness outings back to back. Been to dhoby gaut 6 times and cityhall 3 times last week. =x Seriously dread the central area now. So glad to see the TX people and thanks for the surprise girls! :) 3 of them are already in their last semester at poly! Time flies and we seem to meet up less and less often but it was really great quality time spent at MINDS cafe last saturday! My roomie has potential lol.
I'm glad that most of the HRYF stuff are kinda settled already? Still alot of things subject to changes I guess. Hope most of the stuff can be done within the holidays and eat less into the term! Ahhh, can't imagine the actual day with 2 programmers short.
School is really starting. 2 more weeks and that's it, time again for 14 weeks of mad chionging and aimless mugging and then it will be internship in lieu of summer holidays. So nice! :( Technically I will have no more long holidays until late november this year! But that means most of the time this year I will be doing something productive and hopefully I will emerge a better and stronger person haha.

Wanted to blog on tuesday after meeting US but got BTT to study. Now all my thoughts are messed up haha cannot blog properly >:(Anyways, I passed my BTT yay!!! Haha, nothing to be proud of, except that I didn't go for etrial so yay! There were alot of ah tiongs, foreign workers and ang moh expatriates there haha kinda of interesting. The singaporean girl beside me finished so fast and she passed! Then the singaporean boy beside her submitted not long after, and closed his eyes hahahha. I think he was scared haha. But he passed too! Seeing their success, I ended my test almost immediately after him ahhahaha. Yay. :)
Met up with lovely Diy at tampines after BTT! I missed her badly, the one who braved through PW with me. Miss her cheery personality and sunny aura! Heh. Hope to see you soon again and have great fun in school! Went grocery shopping with her (kinda) hehehe.
Finally finally had a stay at home day today, sort of anyway. But the drilling at my neighbour house was driving me crazy! Took 2 panadols since yesterday to cure my headache and sore throat! Thankfully, I recovered speedily! :D
Have been reading Babysitters Club books. Dont laugh at me. They are part of my childhood, going to library every weekend and max-ing out the loan limit. Used 3 cards to borrow 24 BSC books before okay. Now they stopped publishing until recently, so there's not many to borrow in the library anymore. Don't know what came to me but I really love the whole series. Now I regret throwing that few books I had hahaha. But I found a few copies online yayness. There had been many articles and critiques about Ann M Martin (the author) recently because Scholastic decided to reprint the book and update the contents abit haha. And found blogs on BSC hahahaha. Call me childish, but I'm glad I am one of the many fans out there who still love the whole series hahahhaha. The girls are damn cool, babysitting and dating at 13 years old like omg. Used to envy them when I was 10 ahhahaha. Revisiting these characters at 20++ years old is kinda funny, love the big fonts hahaha. Don't think it is an outdated series leh, because the characters seem so real. Haha love their friendships and all. Don't laugh at me.
Anyway now back to tuesday! I had a super duper early birthday celebration with US hahaha it didn't really feel birthdayish and I'm still thankful I'm not 21 yet! Haha. But love their efforts and everything they did, everything we did together. Oh wells, I don't really have a wide social circle and all but I know they are real friends that I can count on :) and I can foresee us growing old together, attending each others' weddings haha. Missed all the cedar times though it is so far away now. Why are we starting to reminisce the past whenever we meet these days? Haha. Grow old shall zee. <3 Thanks for everything! Feel really happy that day and lets meet up soon!
And today was the outing with the SGH girls! Good to see them and I hope that everyone will be around in future outings! Despite not being really in contact during the school term, it's so nice to see everyone and start talking :) Really like the idea of holiday meetups haha.
Get readyyy for STARS wars episode 2.2 tmr!
