Take it SLOW

Well, it's already week 4 of school, and I haven't been updating much, mainly because there really isn't much to talk about. Life is so mundane that the same stuff just keeps happening over and over again. Of course the perpetual stress of projects,presentations and assignments looms abovehead, and there is only a short window frame to complete them all.
But in all the rushing and stress, I guess we all need to take it slow for at least a little while. I know it's not easy to take it easy, but the 3 pound organ in our head needs to take a break once in a while right? I guess I myself also need to take time, sit down, relax, and take things slowly. All of us have a lot going on in our lives, and I know I already cancelled a few meet-ups with some guys, and my deepest apologies to you guys. Project work is piling up, and now I caught the flu over the weekend, so I'm not performing at my best. Hahahaha, I sound as if I'm helpless when I'm sick......
OK, so anyways, just a little update to liven things up here, so I'll check back soon when there's something to talk about.

Kebelakangan ini panas

Alright!! It's been a really really hectic half a week for everyone. For myself, just doing the little touch ups for IS, mini reports and all, nothing too heavy yet. And finally we got our WISP topic, and we should be starting very soon, but 2 weeks behind all the other classes, hahahahaha, oh well.
GZ and myself went to crash Dr Chitra's BioChem tutorial class, and everything slowly came back again,hahahahaha. It's been a while since all the theories were brought up, and I also mixed up a few, hahahaha, oh well, its all over anyways.

So after that,we went down to Mount Faber once again just now to get a more thorough 'feel' of the whole place, and it was actually better, compared to all the rushing up and down from the bus. My apologies for leaving you all so early once again, hahahaha, I apologized to a lot of people, but I guess I'll do it again here.

So I had to rush all the way back home, bathed, then headed out to meet Zailan to get a cake for Syarizman. Hahahaha, our dear birthday boy hasn't had his birthday celebrated since secondary school, so I thought the 3 of us could celebrate together. MaC dinner and cake smearing was of course in order, and followed by a movie treat by Zai: IronMan!! (I know GZ and the guys will be mad at me), but I really don't mind watching it again, because it's actually one of the better superhero movies made so far. In my opinion, it's the next best thing to Transformers, and if you are into machines and shiny parts, well, this is the movie for you.

Ok, later today, I have another birthday dinner to go for, so I'm going off, and wishing everyone a good May Day.

PS: Happy 19th Bird-Day you big bloke!!! =P

Well, very first time crashing someone's lecture, and it was the Human Communications class today. Reason was because GZ had to have a group meeting for LD3, and majority of the group was in that class, so I followed them. Initially, had to go home because my mum wasn't feeling well, fortunately, she was alright by the time the rest had class, so I tagged along, and also to experience what the class was about.
Honestly, my first impression of the lecturer was a fierce Secondary school teacher, and indeed, the way she taught was like that of a secondary school teacher. However, the topic was really interesting to me, and I actually learnt a bit, even for that short 1.5hrs. But I can see why the rest were all bored out of their wits during her lessons: she doesn't involve the class, all she does is to hand out assignments, and there's hardly any class participation.
Hahahahaha,I'm so glad I'm not in that class(even though it sounds really interesting), because what she taught just now was what I am already, all cheery and optimistic and smiley and all, so it didn't have any value-added incentive for me to join. Hahahaha, marky, the blame's on you man, hahahahaha. =P

Effective Negotiation presentation went really well in my opinion as well. My class was way before the Human Comm class, but anyways, it was a job well done. Among all the groups who presented just now, of course, ours was the best, and I'm not just saying because it's my group, but also our lecturer said ours was the 'benchmark group'. Hahahahaha, *blushes*, but honestly, our group's was really more engaging, more visually stimulating, and of course, NOT SO WORDY. I won't speak ill of other groups, but all I can say is that their's are really wordy and LONG. Hahahahaha, good job EN group!! =)

Ok, so I'm logging off now, catch y'all soon!

Well, 3rd year is not a cup of tea anymore. We all are very used to be spoon-fed with information, and we used to always ask the lecturers for help when we needed them. Now we're plucked from all our comfort zones and placed somewhere we are unsure of, and it's all up to us to make the grade, whether we get good or bad grades, is all in our hands, and honestly, it's not going to be an easy thing to do. New projects, new assignments, new people to work with, new styles of working as well, hahahahaha, oh man, life is full of new things popping up.

I know it's life and all, and I'm not complaining, but 2 years ago, we were all new year 1's, and we enjoyed poly life. Now it's already getting heated up, so I guess all that's left for us is to help each other out. Year 3 is really going to be tough, but let's stick together and get pass this last academic year!! =)

Oh man, its finally the end of the very first week of school. Well, all I can say is that Year 3 is going to be a really really REALLY hectic year for all of us. All the projects(the main ones) have already been assigned to us, and honestly, I don't know if there are anymore stressful projects yet to come, but the amount we have now is more than enough for me. Hahahahaha, you can really feel the tension when the projects are given to us, but thankfully, I have team members whom I know, and I know how to compliment their style of working, so it's not a total loss.

The only highlight of the week was our fieldtrip to the URA building, to visit the Singapore City Gallery. It was my third time there, so I was quite familiar with it, and the whole place still amazes me, and the time we spent there was just nice, not too long neither was it too short. And of course, like all fieldtrips, a report has to be handed in, so it'll take quite some time to get my report writing portion of my brain to work again, hahahaha.

The worse module we are taking is something called Horticulture Engineering, and as you can infer from the title, it involves engineering. Well, it's actually very simple engineering, but to us HLM people, who only deal with plants and soil, maths and numbers just don't seem to add up correctly(no pun intended). It's been a while since any of us touched any math formula, and today we were all bombarded with basic physics formulae, and even though I took pure Physics in Secondary school, I have long returned the knowledge back to my teacher, who incidentally is also and Indian, and we all call him Mr Mario, because he is a short stout man, with a beard comparable to Mario's, hahahahahahah!! Throughout the class, I could tell those who could handle this module, and those who couldn't, and of course, I'm one of those who border in between the two categories. I needed to refresh my brain to start remembering tonnes of formulae once again, and I don't really enjoy it at all, hahahahha. Oh well, it's part of the criteria to get the diploma, so just go with the flow eh.

Now is the end of the weekdays, and start of the weekends, and thinking ahead, I guess there'll be more challenges to conquer, and more trials and tribulations as well, hahahaha. OK, off to watch a bit of television. See you!
