Wanted to take things slow this semester but it seems like it is not possible.

People around me have been telling me that they will put in more effort. For this semester, it seems that I have taken a different perspective on studies. Nevertheless, it is nice to see so many of my jc and secondary schoolmates around this semester. It just reminds me of how much energy and zest each of us possess when we first entered NUS. I guess one of the highlights is to see Nat around since we have been quite close during secondary. (Choy, if you are reading this entry, you are invited to have lunch with us most probably next week to catch up, so make yourself free ya!)

It is good to be back again.

This semester just feels different and I can’t explain why. I just feel like going with the flow, regardless of whether it is good or bad. Like what Weixin has said, she feels frighten this semester but she has no idea where the fear came from. Maybe I am feeling the same way as she is right now.

Recently, I found that I have become quite intolerant towards my tutees. I guess apart from the stress from school, I am still heavily responsible for my students who will be taking PSLE this year. I hate it when I have to scold my cousin harshly when he refuses to do his work or give me a patronizing piece of work. I hate scolding students. I know how detrimental this is to their egos and how it feels to be scolded. I hate it when I lose my patience. L

Let’s hope things will be better this week.

First day of school = Screwed up day

How badly can your day be screwed?

1) I forgot to check the venue of my lecture and I had to ask jolene to check for me. Worst still, I am taking the module alone so I have no friend count on

2) Waited 15 minutes for my bus and I found that I forgot to bring my pencil box on the bus.

3) Reached one bus stop which was 4 stops away from Arts and waited helplessly there looking at three 151 full of students swooshed past without even stopping. Stranded alone at the bus stop accompanied by heavy downpour. In the end, I have to take a taxi.

4) After Q-ing up at Co-op for 30 minutes to buy my book, I realised that I need to Q up again because the history book which peiyun was supposed to lend me was no longer the required text.

5) Went home and checked my email and found that i have to vote for one of my tutorial slot for one special module. But they took away the link when they said the dateline was BY 15 AUG which means I can still vote. Wrote an email to make my stand and i realised I sounded quite rude.


A bad day :(

Fireworks Fireworks Fireworks...

Went to watch fireworks with Onglai, Joanne , Rena and Biyun yesterday. It was considered a fun night if we excluded the pinching and fighting part.. What can I say...with biyun and Onglai around....Luckily, I wasn't inflicted with much bruises. Poor Rena was kept captive by Biyun and Onglai.. haha..

Below is a short screening of the fireworks.. Got this online.. heeee...

You should all Go Watch!!!

Devilish splurge...

Went to watch "CLICK" with jolene.... and ended up buying 3 pairs of shoes and 1 hair conditioner from bodyshop. :P With jolene around, hahaha..we just have just to splurge! She bought 300 pairs of shoes ... haha.. just joking.. She told me not to anyhow say anything because she is scared that Anabelle will scold her.. Oppss...:P It has been a great evening - nice movie , extravagant shopping and great company.. :P Looking forward to another shopping trip!!

While reading one of the books I bought recently, I came across an interesting passage...two to be exact..

here goes,

It takes 2 people to make a lie work; the person who tells it, and the one who believes it. Sometimes, when you don't ask questions, it's not because you are afraid that someone will lie to your face. It is because you're afraid they'll tell you the truth

I don't understand why it's called "getting lost". Even when you turn down the wrong street, when you find yourself at the dead endof a chain link fence or a road that turns to sand, you are somewhere. It just isn't where you expected to be.

Doesn't it makes loads of sense.. heee... Time to watch my DVD..Yippeee..

Life is good.

Counting my blessing...

There are so much things I want to blog .. but I guess I am just so lazy...Been quite contented with my life recently...making full use of my much precious short break before school starts..

Come to think of it.. I missed bidding one of my modules in round 1b.. Humph.. silly me, got mixed up with the modules available for each round... I hope I will still get the module which I want in round 2A, if not.. I guess I will have to take some tough dumb modules. Freaking unprepared for this semester because most of the modules are quite new to me. I managed to bid from dev lab but I am still truamatised by dev psychology. I hope I will be able to handle Elliot's assignment this semester. :(

Recently, I realised that I seemed to have slow down in my cognitive thinking. It is scary. Sobzzz...I can't seem to beat my cousins and my sister at arcade games. Pui. I suspect it could be due to too much meta cognition. Not only that, I have become super forgetful. Totally forgotten about Audrey's birthday on Friday...by the time, I remembered it, it was almost midnight.. I guess I shall play more computer games to stimulate my brain.

Received a couple of birthday invitations. That is another issue on my mind. There is so much to consider when going to a birthday party. I hate going to one where I know no one. Unfortunately, when I asked around, it really seems as if all my friends are not going to attend it. Well, I know I am selfish not to attend it just because I am the only one from my clique who has time to go, but then again.. haizz.. I am trapped to make a sound decision.. Whatever. I still have 5 more days to think. Let's hope I will find someone to go with me.

Trip with Joanne to Genting for a short break is cancelled because she needs to do some urgent relief teaching. Well, I was quite excited at first.My heart was broken when she broke the sad news to me. Never mind, maybe we shall plan for a Bangkok trip in our September holidays. :P

Been blessed with a good part time job to carry out behavioral therapy with a child with autism. Peiyun, Jiahui, Gini and me will all be working together. We will be trained by a psychologist from ABA. Yippee.. A first hand experience and the pay is real good. :P Thanks Peiyun for jio-ing me!!

My entry seems bit and pieces... By the way, I have uploaded some videos which I took .. haha.. not very well taken... I am still a novice, but I will IMPROVE.

The first 3 videos are my primary school. hee... took them during my school visit with Hil May. :P It is going to close down at the end of the year.. :( I miss my childhood days. Sitting under the tree with my bestfriends and talking about our dreams. I miss the freedom.I miss the laughters and tears. I miss the ghost stories. I miss every moment of it.

Let's hope that we will all start this semester with a big bang!

YippeeEE!!! :P

Tada.. received this from the excited weiyang who has just graduated..  

Another one ...
