End of Chapter; Tests


~Mugging for exams~

Wah... what a relief, finally I've finished this year's worth of studying! No more hugging of Buddha leg for awhile. Did my last exam paper today... just got that feeling that this term's result won't be as good as the last one. Partly because it is the 2ND term and people get lazy. Lecturer style was totally different from the 1st terms...(not as student friendly~lol) not to mention "focuses" that Is eat and sleep with which never made it into the exam questions. Which reminds me about what happened just now after i walked out from my exam room. So... me and classmates were talking about the paper as this guy who seem to look like one my of lecturers walked passed behind me, I wanted to whack him on the head so bad! And realised it wasn't him... such a disappointment! Hahaha Hey look, out of 10 focuses i mugged and utterly sleepless nights of revising and making sure i knew my stuff... only 2 was in the exam. ROARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!

But basically, I find this term's module somewhat more challenging and interesting. Not to mention accounts *sends a shiver up my spine* yar that's the feeling i get when i think of numbers running through my head... eerie... Well, accounts is the one that I'm most worried about doing well as I'm very much insensitive when it comes to number *aummmh except 27 and.... 28! * Formulas and what not calculation blah blah blah... which can probably send me into intensive care unit when i get overdosed of. Most, or rather the other 3 modules were rather lengthy... a lot to read, write, understand and analysed. ~ Information overloaded for most of my exam prep period... a little weird tempered and very weird emotional experienced but lucky Les was understanding enough. =)
This term is the "thinking" term or rather one lecturer mentioned "cogitative"
"i want you all to think, put on your thinking cap and think!..."

Looking forward to tomorrow~~~~ TGIF !!! Fishing time at the beach of East Coast~ Gorilla Stick is out to kill again! Watch out fishy fishy! Its a long near 4 months break for me till maybe I start another phrase of my study life. But its been a good year 2009 for me so far. And finally i can sit back, relax and enjoy the breeze....

July~ hoohaaa Round 2


Ever since last term's study week preparation, I've not been doing much blogging and basically distant from the Cyber world. Life's been good to me and changes are sure good at the moment. This term seems to have just began but I've only left 2 weeks before my exam preparation once again. Today I've done my first presentation and butterflies are actually still in my tummy! I've been nervous since the time i woke up this morning... oh boy~ Round 2 will be on Friday!

I've recently passed my driving as well, been out on the roads and talking about stress... YES! Saturday on the highway and Orchard Road is STRESS!!! And i did swore that i wasn't gonna go near Orchard till 6 months later at least but I've been there and done that ~ Phew ~ Now who says women can't drive, i did, i can and i will conquer the roads! Okay, that's too much... but at least now i understand what my mom feels behind the wheels.

Exam Week will be my Hell week 2. Dad's been reminding me to stay focus and this time be more prepared than i was the last time. I was told about the kinda weird things I say and do during the hell week... it wasn't funny i tell you, i was practically labelled "Mad" From the last ordeal i sincerely pray that this time, before entering for examinations... i won't have to go through the same hoohaa again. God, tell me what's next... please forgive for procrastinating and slacking through the term. Oh God, Please help me. =)

And while life was all focus, dull and routine based, a little sweetness came into my life and brightened things up.
Yet I'm still very cautious due to the amount of pain I had suffered and lessons ought to be learnt well over the years and love myself indeed. Can't really blame myself as the saying goes "once bitten, twice shy".(I did stretch my level of endurance to an impressive extend)
Every step i take now will be baby steps~ till i let everything go. I understand that's the day when I truly find happiness.

Aja Aja FIGHTING!~~~

Test1; Update


Was soundly asleep when my mobile rang on a Saturday afternoon.  Apparently a classmate of mine had called to inform me that our results has been post through the mail... "Get up and open your mailbox"  And yes, immediately i popped out of bed only to realise that only my dad has the key to the mailbox.  But somewhere in the house i managed to get hold of another set and asked my maid to go get the result slip.  Okay, i done better than I would have expected which is suppose to be a good thing but over the weekend and even till today... it is bothering me *Seeing Stars, Moon and Sun*.  The fact that i have to keep up with the standard and of course try to keep things constant - expectations(which I've imposed on myself).  

By maybe scoring an average score of lets say a "B" would be a OK, good enough. Doesn't matter if you get a C later on or even better...an improvement of an "A" would be yeah~ you've improved.  And my point here is if getting an "A " means you cannot improve to something better and more or less falling back to a B will not be Ok / C = what the hell happened to me?.... Grrrrr.... it is so depressing but i must accept the fact that i have another 3 months of this term to fight it out again.  Of course my parents are very happy at this moment with my results~ Phew... but that's where the burden comes... What IF i did badly for the next exam, I've already set myself a death trap which i need to stay away from

Random sharing: My "Soul" has finally retired after a chain of painful events where i accidentally caused some damage.

how are you?



16 days since my last post. Gotten a little lazy, a little crazy and a little forgetful after my exams.  
Nothing much in particular that really bothered me happened.  Perhaps i got immue or numb to what ever has happened, what ever could happen.  Finding myself quite focused about just the studies and insensitive to the matters which i deem unimportant!  

1. Term 2 has started on the 11th May (what a short 7 days break~)
2. Started stressing out on the 4 assignments which are due in July (challenge me!)
3. Browsing through the net and scouting for a school for my degree (either in Sg or Aus)
4. Bought new bed sheets! (so soft and comfy!)
5. Rearranged my room again~ (with the help of 2 kind souls)
6. Decided to go "NO CHICKEN" and maybe.... no pork diet! (i believe in my own product!)
7. Finally after 6 years i decided to change Milky's Shampoo to another brand (smells like baby)

Very excited about the assignments this term as I've been re-grouped with some very nice people and will try to make the process FUN! 

These will be the updates for now till....... then~ I'm still happy and alive!!!

It's Over!!!

Look who's sitting on my study notes! well, i had neglected this little boy for a good 2 weeks due the my exams.  This was taken at one of my study sessions below my block. like he did before when i doing my 24 hour drama marathon he decided to sit on my notes to get a little attention from me.
No words can express how depressing it was for me for that 2 weeks and I'm glad its finally over for now, till another 3 months later I'll have my term 2 exams again!  Certainly now thinking back, was quite amazing actually that i managed to survive!  My dad was worried and quoted that i sounded kinda weird as if i was going insane. Well, of course i was weird becoming a super nerd for the 2 weeks.  Aiya ya ya~ that's because the naughty student wasn't hard-working enough and all boils down to the " normally don't study, last minute hug buddah leg "  Its kinda like a long lost feeling and yet such a new experience that I've not had for a long time.  

4 papers, 4 different issues that's refreshing isn't it??? 
  
*Exam 1 : 3rd page into my essays, my hand cramped so badly... i went into the toilet almost bursting into tears.  On the way home after the paper, i was emo-ing and almost crying on the MRT and decided i should cut my hair way short!  Well, i did get a hair cut but wasn't a shocking one... luckily if not I'll probably be more depressed now.  
*Exam 2 : The night before and the morning i was having diarrhea.  The class was split into 3 classes, each on different floors.  I went around looking for my name on the list and it wasn't there!  So another girl and I  called the student services and apparently while waiting for them to respond me, they told her that she had to re-module due to the lack of attendance and i had a shock and was thinking if i was in the same situation and unable to take the exam.  Well, luckily i did and my class was on the 3rd floor.  I had ran up and down the steep flights of stairs 5 times! Lost 20mins of my exam time... luckily my tummy wasn't aching throughout my paper.
*Exam 3 : Before the paper started there was a little conversation going on between the classmates about the exam questions.  Apparently the 5 topics that I've prepared for my paper wasn't all coming out. Means I'll only have 3 questions or so to answer and that's not good.  Freaking out, i had walk around the school campus like some lost child.  Luckily that did not happen... all my questions came out!  
Exam 4 : The last and final one... phew~ This one there wasn't very clear hints given... but also strangely this one i didn't worried (maybe i was already drained and kinda half hearted) and study very hard on.  I read through the notes twice and didn't really attempt to memorize anything... Surprisingly i wrote much more than i did in all the other papers!  

What can i say... now I'll just pray that i did well or even pass.  Next term I'll sure to at least revise and read my notes more often than i did last term.  Hahaa i better do... if not I'll have to go through the last minute rushes and sleepless nights.  Yes, I had a difficult time getting myself to shut off the brain for bed.  Thoughts and words were just running through my head and I was getting a 2hours of sleep per day.  

Now on my short term break and school will commence next week... can't go anywhere for a short holiday :( looking forward to year end.

That's Why...

In the beginning, our parents always nags and remind us... then when we grow up, our friends would give us advices as well.  There's a price to pay for not listening then again most of us are guilty of such.  Everything happens for a reason and the reason is known when you say " oh now i know why he/she told me that!" 

A list of things to think about + their consequences:
1. don't drink and drive
2. eat moderately and on time
3. get enough sleep
4. revise your home work and pay attention in class
5. have a good posture
6. exercise regularly
7. tell the truth
8. open your eyes wide
9. think logically and don't get so emotional over matters

Since young, mummy always always remind me. SIT properly and WALK properly! In less than a year I've injured my same knee cap a few times! These are just 3 of the pictures i managed to capture due to my ignorance to learn. lol



MAY 2008 - After Mahjong, coming home to the lobby and walking into the bench. Moral of the story, sleepiness causes accidents!



JUNE 2008 - Sleeping on the wrong side of the bed cause me to roll off the bed and bruised my knee. Moral of the story, sleep properly, sleep early and don't sleep with a full tummy to avoid having night mares!

April 2009 - While studying and deciding to shift my legs, i received a rather painful and bloody cut.  Moral of the story, sit properly in a chair and if you decide to shift your legs, MOVE AWAY from the freaking table!  Focus on one thing at the time.....

All Stresssssss Out


Exams are just around the corner and I can really smell it! Its been 7 years since i last took an exam... Oh boy, it is scary! I've probably stressed myself out so much that i had problem sleeping. Its like starting the engine and not being able to turn it off... the mechanism inside my brain just keeps running and running day and night and when it's time to switch off, it just keeps running. Life's still great thou, tough but I'm still able to get by it alone. 

This part of my life is called "Tests" A series of changes, a goal, a mindset and the judgement. It's tough but the end result is worth it.

think again

Just a simple video to share: Imperfect? Think again... Prepare some tissues as well.
Learn to cherish and feel bless with what you have.  Sometimes its not about searching for what you want but cherish what you already have.





Exams are around the corner and I'll be blogging less/none ~ Studying more!

Commencing Hell week


Faking a smile, trying hard!~ I'm alright for now~  It's fun being a student, going to classes, playing around with the classmates in class, disturbing the lecturers and frustrating moments during group assignments but now i'm scared because the exams are coming in just 2 weeks time and exams one of the things in my phobia list. *graspz*  

I need to confess that I'll pretty much be doing all the last minute preparation (hug the buddha's leg) again...  I need to cut my finger nails short so that it won't hurt and leave an imprint when i write my long essays... I love to write but not WRITE instead i still prefer to TYPE.  Need to do some practice on my writing because it's been a long time since i've written pages of words.  And gosh, my hand writing is still as hideous as it was 20years back >.<  

During weekends i had unleashed myself onto long hours of sleep which causes me to feel lazy.
I'm procastinating my revision and its not good!  Although I did some reading for my Advance Theory which is taking place on Wednesday...leaving class early for the test and bad feeling i'm gonna fail.  I wish i had a cure to my lack of motivation... i stare at the book and it stares back right at me like we are just strangers.  I have no idea how I'm gonna make it thru this time =.=
Econs... Marketing...Biz...ITT... Grrrr~~~ NO Multiple Choice O.o" Lol I was just looking for a short-cut but already knew the only way is to burn long hours and date the books.
