Some thoughtsJust to share some thoughts about something I read. I shall not quote who said it nor where the source was from as it is rather sensitive. Basically it comments that uni is the last place where we will make friends before we step into the work society. That, I am afraid, I disagree strongly.
I felt that there's no truly genuine friends in uni anymore, at least that's how I felt for the couple of months. You are friends cause you are simply particular gd in a module and could supply your friends with the correct ans. No matter what sort of person or how cocky you may seem to be nobody cares. So long you can provide the ans at the right time. This is esp true if you have online assignments pending for marks where you can simply "copy=paste" your ans from your "best friend".
Though it may sounds crude, take a close look and observe and you will know why. Everyone is fighting for the marks. Since you are marked relatively to one another, some would probably try to console you on the outside and have an evil grin within. Trust me, I encountered them.
To the above, you could dispute everything I say. It's just my 2 cents worth of thoughts after having slogging my past one month on revision etc.

UpdatesLast week was quite okay. A few decisions made. Haha... final exams are coming and I certainly don't wanna flunk it again. Decided that I should spend more time on textbooks and revision to cover as much as I can. Though I really hate what I am studying. Still thinking of what course I should change to. I dread the idea of using computing for the rest of my time in school. Computing is only fun when you know the solution. It sucks when you spend days trying to figure out the solution which is worth 1% of your final mark. Lol.. it's time wasting get e idea? Plus u can't just don't submit as you will eventually lose out.
Probably gonna start working part time as well. This is where time management factor comes in. It will be really important to me nx sem. I'm sick of hearing him whining about money every now and then. I just earn my own and get him to shut up. It's sickening and irritating to hear it everyday when you are mugging hard for your exams. But some things can't be helped, can they?
Of course, there are still sweet moments to be shared. Life has been pretty good with yaxin. Sometimes, I felt love is the most beautiful and disastrous thing heaven has ever gave mankind. You tend to be affected so much to the extent that it can literally control your emotions. It simply just applies to everyone.
Finally, thx to all who lent a listening ear.
Nonetheless, I am still gonna just hang on and endure thru this sem before I do a proper planning for the next. That's all folks!

Some feelingsThis week is rough for me. A lot of mixed feelings going on. Whether it's regarding studies, family, relationship, anything under the sun. I'm beginning to doubt myself if I am wasting my time if my course is a direct 4 yrs course with the sad fact that I think achieving a honors is quite impossible for me in this course. Family ties haven't been really good so far, I feel that I am stranded away day by day. I did something unreasonable which cost my relationship. I'm fortunate that I'm given a chance again due to her graciousness and forgiveness.
Saw something which disgusted me on the train. Well it's a well known fact we all rush for seats on the mrt. But I came across something very selfish. I was sitting on the train when this young lady came to sit beside me. Then when the auntie grabbed a seat beside her, she told the auntie the seat was booked! Lol...
I never knew you could book seats on the train. So she just waved for her friend to come over. The auntie was of course unhappy and told her straight if there's even such a thing. Well, the auntie didn't argue and just walked away. I swear if I was there, I would really embarrass this selfish young lady. This is just isn't a nice thing to do. So much for booking seats. So next time bring your reserve coupons to put them on the train. Lol...

Getting over the disastrous things in life
Well, I'm glad to say I got over my mid term results. I told myself that it's only mid term. There's still lots to fight for. It isn't really the end yet. All I got to do is to pull myself together and work hard for the final exam. Gave up the idea of changing course too because the whole process is way too troublesome. Moreover, I figured out if I only wanted a degree it isn't that impossible to achieve. So let's just keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best.
Well, there are some nice things too. I'm very happy with my current life. I'm happy the way things are working for me. So, I still have something to cheer for at the end of the day.
Planning to upgrade my phone plan and use Starhub's unlimited sms plan for students or my bill will explode every month leaving my mommy yelling at me. Plus, I am hunting for new phones as my plan is expiring soon as well. This time, I will be going for classic designs, the size of the phone must be small as well. Plus, the camera shouldn't lag. Lol.... the fussy me. =)

My mid term results is horrible. But since I have tried my best, I wouldn't say I regretted anything. Thanks to those comforting words. It made me felt much better.
Went to catch Connected with yaxin today. Was a rather gd show. Best of all, it's rather funny. The plot of the story was very gd, there's a twist in the story. I always like shows like this.
Walked ard vivo for a while before going to marina square for dinner. Decided on korean food in the end. It was pretty good cause I tried the food there before. Had ice cream in the later part.
Must start running already. This kind of excessive eating gets me fatter and fatter. Lol...

End of mid term
Yesterday marks the end of my mid term tests. Wasn't too bad at all. I felt that the paper was quite alright. At least the stuff tested were conceptual. So it means if you read the text carefully and understand it, you should be able to answer at least half the qn. Computing was a bit tricky here and there. Time constraint was again a problem for both papers. I wonder is it me. Lol... you start to anyhow whack eventually.
Had a sleepless night yesterday. For god's sake, it has been ages since I lost sleep. Slept at about 1 & woke up about 5. Damn. I hate the feeling of losing sleep. It just means I am gonna to have a bad mood esp so for today. When I didn't catch enough sleep, this is what happens.
It's kind of strange as nothing is bothering my mind. But there must be something. I am gonna try to use this day to dig it out and solve it. Otherwise tonight could be another disaster...
