| Went JP jus now to dapao lunch and dinner. Yes thats how sad hall life is during this period.
Took 179 to Boon Lay Bus Interchange and upon alighting, as if he had camped there at the exact spot since yesterday night, this little indian boy came up to me with the dreaded tin can of doom (yes its the flag day tin can) and asked if I would like to make a donation.
Trust me. At this point in my life where exam issues are hovering like uber thunderous clouds overhead and I need all the positive karma I can get, making a donation of a few tens of cents makes more sense than say, making that sandwich a footlong.
Either way, I tapped my pockets and realised I didnt have coins. And my wallet doesnt have a coin compartment so im pretty much coin-less. I then told him I didnt have coins, he said "thank you" nevertheless, as if I had actually dropped $32485273 worth of 10cents into his donation can.
So whats the point of this entry. I donch know.
But this comment of "I dont have coins" reminded me of a certain year in sec3 when I was doing flag day with ker and i think sw, not sure if yy was there. Theres this guy who walked past and he too used the "I dont have coins" excuse (hey but in my case its real!), and then a few hours later he walked past again, and this time he laughed and said "I STILL dont have coins". Quite farnie there and then.
Ah. The good old days.
Okay, back to mugging. | | |
| Its one of those papers to which you walk away from feeling quite good, yet confused.
Its not difficult, and im sure if yy sees this he'll agree. The mcqs were pretty retarded, and the essay qns were pretty crappable. Clearly those who didnt read the telephone line and MTSO thingy probably had to crap their way out of qn 2, but I think most would have did pretty well.
And it helps that being aa101 students, we have porter's 5 forces at the back of our hands and really, the ERD question is an insult to all our access efforts.
But being an easy paper also meant that our grades would probably be moderated downwards. So prolly to get an A you'll have to get like 80% or even higher. It doesnt help that Ive only scored 37.3% for my other 50% sunk grades for 113.
Nevertheless, its over and its 7 days to my next paper aa101, Im gonna give myself a good rest tonight and start whacking my remaining 3 mods tml!
Oh today after paper went down to wisma to collect my laptop which ive sent for repair. No more disgustingly small laptops ftw. | | |
| Ive got this friend. Shes from Haunter and we sit beside each other during FM seminars every thursday.
Shes not exactly the academically orientated type. Her grades were average at best, and apparantly shes not troubled by it.
While others are whining about why they score a mere 6 out of 7 for their quizzes, she remains contented with a 5. She score a B+ for Blaw, and shes full of smiles when speaking of it.
I got back my Blaw and I too scored a B+, but I was emo the whole day.
Initially I was quite against her mindset of not being academically and grades-conscious, but now when exams are nearing and every1s stressed and made unhappy about everything, its her perpetual happiness and seemingly neverending pool of somewhat unjustified joy that I kind of, for the lack of better words, miss and admire.
All the best for exams every1! | | |
| "The problem with perfect moments, is that they pass."
A quote from how i met your mother, strange to quote a quote from a sitcom but still.
Recent events has, hmmm, how should I put it, caused fluctuations in the odds of either having to give a shangri la treat or being treated to one.
But alas, there are many factors inhibiting the likely occurrence of the former. Theres the dont eat where you shit theory, theres the zl-is-immature hypothesis, and lets not forget the omg-its-10days-til-1st paper effect.
Nevertheless, I still require some closure. But at least Ive found the zl whos motivated, independent, emotionally oblivious, and academically orientated. Lets hope he stays around long enough. | | |
| Its over.
25% of our AB113 (IT) grades are sunk grades now. (Sunk meaning past, like sunk costs, not like.. sunk kind of sunk.. ok nvm)
It has been a long and tiring journey. Though only for a short 2 months or so, our group has been through lots of shit. First the proposal for this bloody biz plan, then the extremely technical microsoft access project (which we had to do with 3 man standing since clair was on long term MC), and now finally the submission of the final report for our business plan and presentation.
I think we've all take away alot from this experience. Its one of those projects when we get pissed off the people for all their small mistakes, get tulanded cos people's ideas are not in line with yours, and sometimes we prefer to do things our way.
Admittedly, at many points in time of this project we are all pissed off at one another, and im pretty sure clair and geraldine pulled their hair out correcting my grammatical errors, and I wasnt exactly thrilled doing up the financial statements.
But amongest all the negative feelings, we managed to pull through. And as they say what doesnt kill makes you stronger. Although we risked coming out of this project as enemies, im glad we remain positive and more importantly, as friends til the end.
Cheers, to team CAMPort.
