OK! only today i came to realise that the selection of my diploma is tmr morning! i mean i knew abt it but i didn't expect time to fly so fast! i've been pondering... between logistics and business, and i did a lot of research on the modules and the cirriculum, and i've been fickle minded the whole day on wat to choose and which path i wish to take, and after much thots, i came to a firm decision.
to all samaritans out there, pls slap me if i change my mind. tmr 10am shall be the time. for the time being, i made some preparations like setting the alarm to 945am in case i oversleep, which happens once in a blue moon. to all my 1b20 classmates and BSG sch mates, choose wisely. if u seriously duno wat to choose, jus quit sch. my house here got one new college, jus 10mins walk frm my place. got indoor bball court, bowling alley, swimming pool, running track, soccer field, coconut trees and a perfect view of the mrt. u can try their next yr intake. no stress, can make chao ah beng frens, and can anyhow spit. so y wait? enrol urself now! whohoo!
p/s: if u know me well enuf, u'll know tt i probably forgot to take my medicine.
that time will come... and when it does, i wun hold back. i promise
well haha here i am with a relatively short entry to end the weekends. went for splashathon yesterday with melvin it was frm 830 to 130 but i only started swimming at 10. did 60 laps and melvin did 30. i was up against the tp swim team captain and he was super fast. 1st-3rd positions will get medals. after 1 hr 45mins of swimming and getting myself tanned, i decided to stop and go have lunch. when i left i was in 1st place and melvin was 3rd. but tt position wun stand coz the rest of the ppl were still swimming and frm 12-130, they surely will exceed 60laps. if i wanted to win i wouldnt have stopped at 12pm, i could have continued till 130 like the rest and secure myself a 2nd or 3rd position (1st will go to tt super fast guy of coz). but then i was very hungry already and the only objective i went for the splashathon was to earn some seal points, and not compete with the rest. so ya, i chose food in the end haha.
ate at mac and this auntie came up to me and scolded me. i was talking to melvin and i said the word SHIT. then she came up to me and said...
Auntie: i thot i heard the word 'shit.' do u know tt BLABLABLABLABLABLA indian chinese malay blablabla and a few weeks ago got robber break into my house!
then she left and a few secs later she opened the mac door again and she said: ROBBER! IN MY HOUSE!
i think she was a lunatic coz she cant possibly be scolding me directly coz i dun see a link between SHIT and ROBBERS BREAKING INTO HER HOUSE.
had a bball friendly match at the court near melvins house so i went to his house first to get some rest after tt and met his cool mum and cute little brother. won the friendly match 106-136 and when i got home i was super super tired. went to sleep and my saturday ended. sunday jus started so nth to blog. will update again!
ok i am here with a weekend entry. today was the WORST DAY ever for sch. i woke up at 7am and the weather was so so so nice for sleeping! seriously didn't wana leave my bed and bolster. the weather was like.. going to rain but haven rain, even if got rain also is light droplets those kind. and the atmosphere was just right for a trip to dreamland. but at the back of my head i knew i had to wake up for a horrible nightmare... tt is to go for 9am micro econs tutorial by MR SIMON SEAH. oh gosh, i bet his name is enuf to scare u. he's not fierce AT ALL, but he is super wierd. hard to describe. and we had him for microecons lecture jus yesterday, and sway sway he is my tutor for tt subject. so fate brought him and my class together for econs. i hope by jus studying the notes, i will be able to pass.
the tutorial began with him beating abt the bush for mcq questions which took him 1hr in total. then jing smsed me and asked me to lend her my micro econs tutorial coz she needs to present question 3 for her econs tutorial during her class. so i replied tt i had microecons frm 9-11. and she said: 'GREAT! my class starts at 11!' haha in my mind i was like, oh damn do i really have to help her? haha but of coz being a person who is good in nature and ever so willing to lend a helping hand (jing pls dun puke), i passed her my tutorial after class. and in the end, her teacher said tt it was well done. and she said she had A LITTLE HELP FROM ME. A LITTLE! whoa! haha. u damn champion.
but nvm lets jus forget abt her for now. tmr morning is the tp splashathon, i will take part and help business sch get some laps. to me, biz sch appears to be rather pathetic haha. but i'm doing it bcoz of the seal points. so after tmr, i will become MR CHAO TA! lets hope the weather isn't so sunny and it doesnt rain... so i wun be so black.
ok off to bed soon and cya guys next week when i update again. keep the tags coming.
ok i last blogged on sunday afternoon right. well in the evening i went to tampines block 201 there to play bball. the clouds were very very dark then, it was the perfect pre-rain condition. one of the bballers at 201 was wearing slippers and didn't wana change to his shoes coz he said tt it was gona rain. but after 15mins it still didn't rain. so he put on his shoes, haha and it started to rain. it was a drizzle but the droplets were kinda heavy ones. so he said: WHA LAO SIAN AH! then he took off his shoes. and the moment he took it off, the rain stopped. so he decided to go home and OFFICIALLY change to his shoes and leave his slips at home. but we seriously encouraged him not to put on his shoes anymore haha coz it's bad luck. for half an hr it didn't rain and the clouds were clearing. the moment he came back with full bball gear and shoes, it started to rain like no one's business. if u r staying in the east and could recall sunday evening at abt 630pm. wha lao and we quickly sought shelter.
my fren ah mok wanted to buy a drink coz he was thirsty, so he decided to buy bubble tea and i followed him. we went to this bubble tea shop. they had ALL the flavours written on their signage, abt 30 flavours to choose from to be exact. so ah mok asked for PASSION FRUIT. they say dun have. so he asked for HONEY DEW. also dun have. so he got fed up and asked them wat the hell they have. and they said: 'OH! we have kiwi and mango! and... tts all' whoa mok really wanted to faint haha so he bought kiwi in the end. total regret. NEVER EVER buy bubble tea frm 201. well tt raps up sunday in full.
monday, shing suddenly asked me in msn at 730pm whether i wana watch harry potter at 1025 at tm anot. haha i didn't wana go actually coz by the time the movie ends it will be 1+ and i got no transport home. but they psycho me and since it meant meeting up with ppl like weeyang shing mj and nic, i gave in.
before i continue any further, i wana express my sincere apologies to weeyang and shing. both of u have made a big impact on my life and i seriously let u down. i really am sorry. watever it will take for both of u to forgive me, i will gladly comply. wat happened was tt we were supposed to meet at 10 outside gv for the movie. while going up the escalator frm the 2nd to 3rd floor, i saw weeyang and shing standing side by side going up... so sweet!!!!! but y did i ruin it! argh! it really wasn't intentional. i was behind them going up as well but i was abt 5metres behind, but my poor sense of camouflaging made me kana spotted by weeyang. and he kay siao nv see me so he can continue his romantic moment, but a few secs later his conscience made him tell shing. and there it happened, my biggest blooper. to the both of u, I AM SO VERY SORRY! next time if both of u r meeting up first, pls tell me in advance, so i can like maybe fetch meijun and her bro from the interchange or sth, so as not to get in the way. and shing pls stop saying that it was a coincidence the both of u met. overall, the movie was alright la haha.
and tt rapped up monday. well to end this entry, here is my msn conversation of the day, starring urs truly and jing. ok for intro purposes, jing's nick was this: "he died/ someone stab me pls, i'm seriously not ok"
so i started a conversation with her. gerald: hey jing: hey gerald: if u ever need someone, i am always here jing: tt's sweet gerald: so... can i stab u now? jing: **** U PLEASE! jing: wha lau! i thot u're suddenly so sweet.
au revoir ppl! keep the tags coming.
u're the closest to heaven tt i'll ever be, & i dun wana go back right down
back to update on a sunday afternoon with a very interesting story to tell. well it was the highlight of the week and so i would like to share it with u guys. other than tt, my life hasn't been exciting at all since sch started. i'm still trying to find my touch of excitement and go back to my normal crazy self. apparently for the past 2 weeks i've failed. haha anyway, last sunday, i went to 106 (near my hse) to play basketball. then we were playing halfway when 4 ppl came to our bball court. they way they walked, oh man seriously turned us all off. trying to act gangsters but with all my due respect, they walked like crippled beggars. of the 4, there were 2 guys and 2 girls. and one of the girls was my fren's ex-girlfriend. worse still, my tt fren was present at the court. so for simplicity's sake throughout the story, let's name her ruhua. easy to remember right? and she lives the block jus beside the bball court.
but the main problem doesn't lie with her. its one of the guys, who happens to be her aussie cousin. so he's kinda like an australian chinese, well at least he looked like one. he came to the court and looked at us and screamed at the top of his damn voice. he didn't do it once or twice, he did it abt 8 times. so bloody irritating. and worse still, he walked over another side and took off his pants to reveal his arse. and i thot i had the worse arse in the world, apparently he proved me wrong. after that he screamed abt 5 more times. so i gathered all the bballers and we stood one row. when they were waiting for the lift to go up to ruhua's house, we ALL screamed at the top of our voices. we shouted at them, they shouted at us. and they went to ruhua's house which was at the 10th floor and threw a plastic bag down. in the bag was a water bottle, possibly filled with urine but none of us had the balls to check haha. so we jus left it there, it was so off target anyway. it landed abt 10metres away frm us. after that the situation calmed. so i thot it was over.
but on tues after i came back from a 7pm french lecture, i saw policemen at the bball court. my frens told me that earlier on they threw abt 3-4 more plastic bags filled with ketchup and other disgusting stuff. worse still, this time it was on target and my frens took a hit. so they called the cops in. the policemen went up and questioned them. now they were as scared as tortoises and all of them hid in the room. ruhua answered the door and she kept denying. my fren went up and asked them: 'u scared for wat? dare to throw dun dare admit.' it was so serious that the policemen came to take pictures of the evidence. whoa, i first time see a real life crime watch. then i realised throwing litter frm the 10th floor, consequences are darn severe. ruhua smsed my fren the next day and scolded him. she said that we ruined her family. her dad and elder sis r in hospital after a car accident. her cousin has had 2 police cases in australia. one more and he will be put behind bars back home. and now they might get charged for this killer litter shit. she hates us and blames us. but hello, YOU R THE ONE WHO RUINED UR OWN DARN FAMILY, if it's even a family in the first place.
haha of coz being the soft hearted ppl we r (cheh!).. we decided to drop the case totally. but it is already out of the question. on tues evening, we weren't the only ones who reported them. many adults who saw wat happened also made a report, so even if we drop it, the investigation will still go on. i duno to pray for them or to tell them SERVE U RIGHT. so i chose not to care abt this matter anymore. they r insignificant to me. i should be more conscious of things going around that will affect me directly, like my studies and projects, which is gona take it's toll on me. ciao! keep the tags coming.
i've been housing many insecurities; and it's something i can't shake off.
due to sim meijun's request, i am here to update haha. well haven been able to update much due to a lack of time after sch started. weekends were all dedicated to playing and i didn't touch any tutorials at all. of coz i did complete most of them the week b4 already so i needn't worry. but this sem, i have many worries for myself. business statistics is alright, the only thing is tt we have one doubt abt a minor question and our tutor does not seem to understand wat we were asking him and therefore he couldnt provide us the ans that we were looking for, either that or he doesn't know the ans himself coz he looked very lost at tt time. i know it's jus a minor question and we can jus forget about it, but this affects our confidence level.
microecons is still fine coz econs is fairly easy to understand. half the class skipped managing business systems yesterday coz we knew the lecture had 59 slides and the lecturer was norshida selamat... the past few experiences with her was that she doesnt give breaks. imagine 59 slides w/o breaks, cant imagine eh. so week 2 is left for me to read on me own, and thanks to elena who helped me copy notes for me during the lecture. biz accounting 2 is getting more difficult and i understood NOTHING during the lecture, and it's a very very very bad sign. i dun wan to hate it, but it seems tt im starting to. french is again quite bad but i will try my best to pick it up soon. the only subject tt i truly understand is Organisational behaviour.
project grps have more or less been decided. since mr china (webber) has left our class, we only have 23 ppl and so our groupings for OB were split into 6,6,6,5. my grp has 5. me pinhua felicia wingyan and melvin. lets hope its a cosy grp and nothing goes wrong this sem. ciao.
Well hello guys, i'm back with alot of things to share so hope i wun bore u all this time. haha past few days were great, especially when my ankle is getting much much better as days pass! let's see yesterday i had an organisational behaviour lecture frm 2-4pm and after that i just went home to watch some tv and slack till nite, of coz i completed my tutorials as i promised my classmates, they jus refuse to believe me. yes i came to this point with a firm decision, to complete all my tutorials the day after my lecture ends. so i wun worry abt them during the tutorial week and when the exam comes i wun have to start studying everything from square one. so far i've been living up to it. for those i can't complete, i will leave them for the weekends. thats all for wed, nth much to blog abt.
the bulk of it comes from thurs. first up was micro econs lecture from 11-1pm. the lecturer was supposed to be my careperson, miss tan ee ling but she wasn't around for some reason. the replacement was another lecturer which i forgot her name. anyway if she didn't know, we were marco econs students the last sem, and today's topic was EXACTLY the same! it was demand and supply. we already FULLY understood the topic from last sem. but she was trying her best to explain in a way that wun confuse us. but the more she explained, the more she confused us. so we decided to jus ignore watever she was talking about and jus read the lecture notes ourselves based on our own knowledge, and it turned out GREAT!
after that we went to the FLAVOURS food court to eat at IT sch. i tell u the food there is so expensive and it is not even nice. but i did buy a plate of nasi padang and compared to wat my other classmates bought, it was very delicious. sarah and dinesh bought a pizza for $3, and the size? it was jus as big as a 50-cent coin. ok la not so small but it was the size of a mini frisbee, super pathetic. and my nasi padang with 4 dishes cost me $2.80. they regret. haha and stef bought this bowl of prawn noodles and she didn't like it. we all tried it and it has a very funi taste, i also duno how to describe. to know more, head down to FLAVOURS and try their disgusting food! but their nasi padang stall's food is really very nice. but the rest ah... YEE YUCKS!
alright frm 1-4 we did nothing except slack in the library. there was stef me dinesh eugene pinhua and sarah, and we talked abt ***. if u r clever, u guess. if u can't guess it right, u r way dumb. then we went for 2hrs french tutorials and 1hr french lecture. here's the thing... i went into the class not knowing anything abt french, and when i came out... the most amazing thing happened... i still knew nth abt french. wat went in one ear came out from the other. but my tutor is cute. his name is mr jacquet. dun try to pronounce it... coz i also duno how to pronounce it. i duno if its pronounced as JACKET or JACKUEH. but he is very cute. he say we r the last tutorial class this week for french, and the books might be sold out, so he asked us to give him all our money so he can run to engineering sch to buy for us b4 the other tutorial class ppl do so. and we gave him our money and he really ran out. and we sat there and stared into blank space. how nice.
sch ended at 7 for me. headed down to allan's house for his bday celebration. oh ya happy bday allan, hope u grow more hair in time to come. was supposed to reach by 730pm, but i smsed zheguang to ask him abt allan's block and unit number. zg told me its block 713. i know where the place is roughly, but i couldnt find any block 713, so i walked around like an idiot and for 10mins, all i could see was blocks 730-742. so i called allan this time, and he told me its block 735. so i arrived at 750pm in the end. THANKS AH ZHEGUANG! but no harm done, at least i got to attend the thing eventually. haha i was 2nd last to arrive, wenjun was still on his way then. when i reached, there were tons of curry and beehoon. but every other food, there was 1 of each left only. so i was thinking, wenjun haven come so i will save them for him and eat just the curry and beehoon. but when i turned around... those food tt were only left with 1 were all gobbled up by the YAU KUEES! so in the end allan's mum went to buy more chicken wings for wenjun and me. and oh ya we had a cake smashing session after that. allan's appendix hurt and so we decided to concentrate fully on his face! we gave him a hell of a facial. he had alot of fun too although his appendix pain. yup so it was past 11 and we rushed home. most of us took the cab.
and now here i am blogging. sleeping soon. having Biz accounting lecture tmr morning at 11. hate accounts but at least now i know it's not the stupid pregnant lady. in the meantime, cya and keep the tagboard alive!
ok tuesday's been great. had business stats lecture frm 3-5pm. and business stats is a rather cool subject, well at least for the first lesson. i hope i dun take tt sentence back a few weeks later. the cool thing about that subject was that we can have our textbooks with us during the MAIN EXAMINATIONS, and it doesn't have any projects! i know it's no big deal but in my course, if there is subject which doesnt require projects for coursework, it's considered a cool subject already, coz the thing that pisses us the most r projects and deadlines and preparation for presentations.
well other than that nothing else happened today. and good news for me, my leg is recovering a a very fast rate. at least i dun limp as much as yesterday. so i'll be looking forward to playing bball this fri again. whahahaha. i hope i'll be ok by then coz judging by the rate my leg is recovering, it should be ok.
oh man i had a bad start to my new semester. it has nothing to do with the sch, but yesterday while i was playing bball, i sprained my ankle. and i did it in the worst possible way, which was landing on someone else's foot. pain like hell i tell u. but after a while the pain subsided, so i thot it was jus a minor sprain. until this morning i woke up, i found out my ankle was swollen and the pain came back... to make it worse, it was more painful than yesterday, so much to the extent that i had difficulty walking. i even sat on my computer chair and rolled myself to the toilet to brush my teeth, how pathetic. i worried about going to sch coz if i had difficulties walking then how can i go sch. but i can't miss the 1st lecture, and i wun miss it for the world. heng ah when i bathe that time not so pain already.
i even wore shoes. i always wondered y ppl who sprained their ankles need to wear slippers. i felt that wearing shoes was perfectly normal. UNITL I TOOK BUS 38. whoa lan my ankle was swollen and the shoes was like compressing it and forcing not to be swollen. 100% REGRET! so for the rest of the week, it's SLIPPERS TIME! when i reached tp eventually, i climbed up the overhead bridge stairs like a crippled student. and worse still, shijia was at the top of the bridge waiting for weeyang. whoa heng she was standing quite far in, so i doubt she saw the way i climbed the stairs... well at least i hope she didn't see it. and to make myself happy, i shall take it that she didn't see it.
only needed to attend 1 lecture today, which was MANAGING BUSINESS SYSTEMS. another full computer subject, stupid shit. and the subject head cum lecturer was my last sem csa tutor, MR NAIR!! he's so so so cute. and he doesn't have a temper AT ALL! the whole lecture hall was super noisy for the first half an hour and we kept disturbing his lesson every 5mins. but not even once did he get angry. whoa his patience level muz be damn high. but of coz being the good students we r, we did not take his kindess as a weakness. he is gona be my MBS tutor this sem anyway. alright let's hope this sem's a fruitful one. keep the tagboard alive
ok people, i'm here to do an entry before school starts to mark the end of my 2-month holidays. the more i look at my timetable, the more i loathe sch but oh well it isn't as bad compared to sec4. i'm still happy due to the fact that i got into the french cds which was my 2nd choice. i thot that with my sucky GPA, i will get some shit cds. to adapt to the french culture, i shall inculcate new habits. monday: french kiss with somebody tuesday: learn to play the french horn wednesday: have bonjour bread for breakfast thurs: due to a 3hr break frm sch, i shall have french fries for teabreak fri: since i end at 1, i will have lunch at delifrance
oh ya, to all my frens who r taking their olvls this coming monday, all the best. i have 5 bball frens taking the olvls, but it seems to me that for the past few weeks, they have been coming to play bball EVERYDAY! it seems that they come down more often during the past few weeks compared to the past. oh well, i can only wish them luck.
to all lyss ppl, allan is in hospital with appendix. i dun really know wat that means. but i know the appendix is an extra organ in the human body which is more or less useless. heard from james that consuming too many chilli seeds will result in going thru an op to have the appendix removed. james had it removed. but for allan's case, i only know he got appendix, i duno whether he had it removed or he is in hospital bcoz his appendix gave him some problems. none of us knows anyway. we r visiting him tmr at changi general hospital, meeting at 5pm at simei mrt station. only then will i know wat is really wrong with him. so if u r interested to go, u may infm me anytime as long as it's b4 5pm tmr.
alrighty, will update again after sch starts on monday. for now, happy holidays for jc/sec sch students and welcome back to hell for poly students. keep the tags coming
timetable's out for next sem. i seriously hate thursdays coz of the stupid cds. i end sch at 7. damn. but i'm not complaining about my cds coz its french. anyway to summarise, my timetable is as follows: mon: 9-5pm tues: 1-5pm wed: 11-4pm thurs: 11-7pm fri: 9-1pm ok so i got to look forward to fridays. one major complaint... I SAME CDS LECTURE AS TAN SHI YING! oh man!! it's much worse than the end of the world. oh well, tts all for now. haha sch's starting on monday! =(
