Due to popular demand, I shall update my blog:

School's starting in about a week's time. Kinda excited yet at the same time, "sian-ded". It's a mixed feelings thing. On one hand, I finally have some serious responsibility and goal to fulfil when school reopens. On the other, I'll have less sleep, less play and less time to slack. Anyway, I'm actually quite glad I stayed in SG. The entire he[x] (except chyi) is in NUS. I have so many friends there. It feels like I just went back to my TK and VJ days. The "play hard work hard" days. You feel so much more achievement when you're constantly busy and always have something to complete.

Poly was more like the "play hard work less" days. I was never so slack in my entire school life as I was in Poly. Even though I know I achieve many things in Poly, I never felt much achievement. I guess you'll tend to feel more when you know you're competing against all those scholars and PRCs, and you worked like crap to get those results.

Anyway, I have to start bidding for modules tomorrow morning - I'm going clubbing tonight, so dead - which is one of those really stupid things about NUS that I dont understand. Why do I have to bid for my modules?! They said that it'll teach us how to make the right decision and plan ahead to ensure we fulfilled all the criteria for graduation (which is kinda true). Yet, till now I'm yet to be notified about which modules I'v been allocated to. So I have to prepare 2 sets of timetable - just in case -, how lame is that.

I happily passed my QET (Qualifying English Test). Apparently all poly grads and 'A' levels grads who did not do well in their GP, have to take this test. Whoever fails will have to take extra english modules. I was initially damn worried. Com'on, how long ago was it that I wrote a decent essay? Like for my 'O' levels english? 3 freaking years of not touching essays. It's gonna be worse if you get me to write a chinese essay now. I'll definitely fail, I swear. Anyway, the QET essay question freaked me out, "Should developing nations invest in biotechnology?" eh.. this is so incredibly GP. But I managed to get a pass in fluency and accuracy and all those nonsense. I guess my crapping ability is still there after all these years. Phew.

Whatever it is, I'm still damn glad that I went to poly. My mugging skills may not beat those people who completed their JC days but at least I had some experience during my TK days. I just need to restart the rusty engine. I have an advantage in terms of labwork which constitutes like 40% of the modules score. I did not spent 3 years in poly writing scientific reports for nothing. The only problem that I think I'm gonna face is the language and arts modules like sociology, politics etc. I doubt my crapping ability has reached that level. Wish me luck.


Alright, now for something light and bimbotic:

Na, yiling and me went shopping yesterday. I wanted to buy my bohemian flats and heels, na wanted to get watch while yl wanted to buy clothes. Do you know what happened in the end? We got none of those. Instead we ended up buying cosmetics and facial products. Lotsa of it. I think the 3 of us spent a total of few hundred bucks. We bought Chanel mascara, Dior lipgloss, Sephora brushes etc. I'm glad I did not get the gel eyeliner from MAC. IT SMUDGED! Girls, IT SUMDGED! Another brand down the drain. When will I be able to find an eyeliner that will never smudge. sigh.

I still need to get my bohemian flats.
