so its the end of the exams!
the end of 1.5 years of ntu!!

it has taken so long to come, but i'm glad its all over.

the celebrations at clark quay last nite was very shuang.. we went to clinic and weilong was somehow made to treat a bottle of baileys (and the empty bottle is now at my home!) and weichee lost some game and had to treat a pack of IV (dono wat's the green thing called though, tasted like kiwi or guava) and we drank lotsa milk and coke..hahaha hongjing was damn tired though, and he looked like he is gonna sleep for a few days before regaining all his energy.

den i went for tuition this morning while still being half-awake. i teach my soon-to-be-j2 kid some electricity concept, and i think it was more of a lesson whereby i figure out the working and explain to him rather den teach him new stuffs. i think my jc physics is already very cui, maybe i will only be able to teach maths in the new future. i'm slowly but surely forgetting all my sciences

den i went back hall to clean my clothes and pack up my stuffs,(so that my place can be a neater one before i officially leave hall for home!) while taking a long and well-deserved nap while my clothes are being cleansed by the ever working washing machines of hall 6 blk 34 level 1! i also swept and mopped the room so that my roomie can have a better time while fighting off the last few papers.. jiayou!

i'm contemplating going home rite now or after the 7pm show. i realli don wan to miss it, so i guess i shall watch the show in hall now den quickly go home after that. can eat dinner at home, and then go watch the man u match!

woo.. another semester is over!

though today's paper totally sucks, its like only 2 questions @ 50 marks each, and things like game theory never come out, while disgusting things like eva came out. hahah.. but also because i noe no one will probably get that eva fully right so i din bother spending too much time on it, just calculate abit here, abit there den move on already. then i spent one minute staring at my neighbour!... de paper! and he spent was like still at the EVA with 30 min to go, and 40 marks worth of question to go. WoW he must have studied like shit for the EVA, that's why so reluctant to let go of the marks.

the SRC table is also very lousy, keep rocking one, rocks more than my mum rocking me on swing last time, or more than my grandma rocking her rocking chair, last time too. but i was too tired to do anything about it, so i stared at the watch (krystal's one; krystal, if u happen to read, your watch is still with me! ! ! ! !, when are you going to get it back from me?) about 15% of the time, cant wait for time to pass, 2.5 hrs seems like eternity, particularly when you have to write so much quanlitative things out. I hate qualitative things, just like i don mind not eating super nice food, but i must have quantity! quantity feel the stomach, numbers is never wrong, quality is always arguable. I think I should have been a mathematician, then I can fiddle with numbers all the time. In fact, I realli think i would have been one, if there is a job with good prospect and high paying one, I would have gone for it. But I don regret coming NBS too, because I became a NaBeian, and I noe NaBeis like Lina Lo, whose voice can rock the building down!!! hahaha I miss hearing her sore voice when she had sore throat last year, like her voice is stuck inside! but urging to scream out to let everyone noes she's here! hahaha okie i noe u wun mind! I'm ur shifu hor!

Anyway had lunch at the Stadium Jap place.. can't remember the name, let me remind u all one more time. When you all choose GEs, ALWAYS, ALWAYS.... AND ALWAYSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS check out the exam date!!!!! its okie if the ge is only lecture, only lecture and tutorial, 2 tutorials a wk, but never let the exam date exceed ur core module date!! hahaha i noe hz and hh gonna kill me.. blea~~ still hope to see u guys there tonite..haha i still have hope

WHJ, are you going with us? rily hope to see u there.

i think no one can understand how tired we all are
we have never experienced consecutive core papers
let alone 2 core accounting papers
that make up the bulk of this sem's work

202 requires so much reading
but everyone is so tired from studying 201
i felt like giving up midway through the 201 paper today
cannot read or think anymore during question 2 itself
when there is so many words, so many numbers, so many theories

going hall 2 to study with js today
but eyes still feel like shutting

to my kokster friends:
what cannot kill us will indeed make us stronger
and PROJECTS WILL NOT KILL US
what's important is we are happy
grades are really secondary

*look forward so much to tomorrow*
*and pondering to stay up whole night today and take the risk of mind blank tmr*
.. or should i just go to sleep and let god decide

i realise the hall's tv room's fans are super powerful. i withstood the cold air generated by the fan at blk 33 tv room for an hr or two today and i started sneezing. i think i have zhao liang le..hahaha so funny to describe it in chinese.

anyway aa201 exam in a few hours time. i tink i have 7.5 hrs to sleep before getting a free car ride to south spine. i hope i wun wake up anytime before that, wana have a good sleep so i can study for aa202 tomorrow. i wonder why the naming of the modules cannot be aa201 202 203 204 205 206 207 208 209 210. that will sounds so cool, rather than have some nos. missing here and there.

this sem's exam seems so different from last sem. but i'm so glad its ending already, coz i have no more energy to last thru even one more wkend.

trying to watch crunchyroll now, hahaha, becoz i slept super alot today. i slept in the tv room, and slept in room while waiting for weitien to come (oh thanks for the waffle!). and thanks for the pasta! it was very nice =) it was the first time i haven had to buy any food from any canteen myself for dinner..hahah quite shuang. and thanks for the cup noodles.

i hope all my friends score well for 201 tomorrow. i realli realli hope they will! jiayou!

LONDON (AFP) - The "world's biggest liar" has been crowned, after telling a tale about a German World War II submarine invading Britain to capture digital television decoders.
John "Johnny Liar" Graham won the annual competition of tall tales, which is held at the Bridge Inn in Santon Bridge, in the heart of Britain's Lake District national park.
The 69-year-old claimed he stumbled across the U-boat as it prepared a raid on the nearby town of Whitehaven, which has become the first in Britain to switch from analogue to digital television.
Graham, who has won the title five times before, also said he caught a cod that was nine-foot (2.7-metres) long.
"It was a true story," Graham insisted to BBC radio Friday.
The event, which now draws tourists and competitors from around the world, is a homage to a local pub owner called Will Ritson, who regaled his regulars with shaggy dog stories in the 19th century.
Among his claims were that turnips grown in the region were so big people could live in them.
Recent winners have included one competitor who claimed the mountainous Lake District was formed not by ice or volcanic action but by large moles and eels. Another claimed to have discovered the existence of mermaid farms.
Competitors have five minutes to tell the biggest fib without the aid of props. Politicians and lawyers are barred from entering as they are judged to be too skilled at telling porkies.

another lacklustre day was spent at the nie library today. i think i was realli distracting coz i din have the mood to study so i keep talking to those at the table and we probably ended up spending more time talking than doing work. i realli cannot wait for exams to be over. its been so long already, just a few more days to go, but i realli realli wished it can be over now.

anyway it was dinner at cant 4 with hh and js. the bad thing that happened there was that the auntie took 1 hr to get our orders ready, rily a big bOO to them, cause not only did they misplace our order form, but they also din rush to do it when they realised it, ending up in many many pple going off with their orders though they came later than us.

the funny thing that happened there was a live national geographic channel. we watch as a lizard moved around the canteen 4 wall to sneak attack on small flies. there was this big fly who was so brave that it went around the lizard, and after a glance at the fly, the lizard decide that it was too fleshy for him. but we still saw it eating a few flies over there.. though it's quite amazing to watch this live show, i think it was very gross too. like seeing live animal eating one another.. such a sad thing to see

I've solved the my-ste-ry of donuts. The name 'doughnut' is still used in England. That means my english standard is of british standard. Because England is birthground of English, English is used to spell things, England spells 'O' doughnut, I spell 'O' doughnut, so I am a English from England. sounds so logical.

And the nut is because of the bolt nut that is used to drill the circle in the centre. then how do you explain the doughnuts that is currently sold in the market now. There is no circle in the centre,means no bolt is used to drill a hole, means it is not a doughnut, means its a fraudulous name, means it is illegally copyrighting a name, and people are still buying.. oh man
(explanation courtesy of Sharon Poh - 'Life is short, like me')

LiNa Lo just visited me.. hahaha cheered me up so much. I think I love voices, familiar voices. I don't like excessive voices, but I like to hear from people whom I know, then I know the environment is alive, and there are people around. Without noises, I think everyone is missing.

And Qingfu just came back, I was going to call the police that he is lost because I haven seen him for close to >12 hrs. I din noe LWN library closes at 11.30pm now.

hiakya.. after yesterday, today seems so sad.
Morning started sadly, when i see no one at the library. So i started studying myself and even though it was kinda productive, I felt quite sad because I was all alone. WC came after that and luckily I had someone to eat lunch with.
Another kok-ster came after that.
But somehow, I felt quite lonely all day long, and started pondering about things again.
2 years in uni doesn't seems to have bought alot of things to me. I wonder whether the problem lies in me.
I wonder what type of person I am.

Today I also want to talk about donuts. It is made from flour, and decorated with funny decorations; chocolates, strawberries.. anything that bubble tea can consist of. But if it's made from dough, why issit called just donuts and not doughnuts, which I always tot it was called. Furthermore, why is there a nut? No parts of a donut/doughnut is hard, unlike a nut. So interested to find out the origin of the name.

I realise I haven been happy all along. I hope someone comes along, and make me want to live again. After so many years, I have gotten nothing. There are people I care for, but I dono if they know who they are. I wonder why life is so fragile, and why a mind is made to feel emotional. All along, I thought it is enough to live just the way you want it. But by living it that way I don't feel happy, I don't feel enough. Can someone please guide me, please tell me about myself.

Half a year ago, I found myself stuck in Pulau NTU for a whole week, mugging my life away in the reading room or NIE library, passing days of my life remembering that demand decrease when price increase, eating chicken rice day in day out, sometimes eat hokkien mee. I found myself driven mad by this incessant influx of NTUism, and decided to seek refuge outside; JE library, Woodlands Library or home, wherever welcomes me.

Half a year later, today, I found myself in the same situation, facing the dreaded exam, the one that everyone hates and detests. I found myself studying hard last sem, with no real purpose, except just to get pass a exam period. Now, I found myself slacking hard when there is actually a purpose to study, such is the weirdness of man. I slack since day one, work abit hard during project coz i paiseh to slack, slack hard after that, work abit hard before exams cause i think need to study for exam, and then after this much dreaded AC 213 IT paper, I found myself with no drive to study already. Maybe its the start-too-early symdrome. I just hate repeating reading what I've read before. Its like buying a story book and you are forced to read it once, which is alright because its a story book. And then, you are forced to read it a second time, a third time, because people say you have to. OMG, I rather there be many many story book, then at least your viewpoints and exposure increases. I think it should be the same for studying, we should study and read because we can get exposed to multiple viewpoints and understand more about life, about human, and the world. We should not be expected to memorise things in book, because this world should not be so technical.

I want to read storybook, but I know I wun have the endurance to finish reading one; and I probably wun understand everything in the storybook, but I still want to study like I'm reading a storybook.

I'm thinking, how did Bangladesh have such a cute name? Like Bangla.. just sounds like burglar, which means bad guy. oh BanGla(BG) = Bad Guy. This is the common descrimination. I hate people who say we should not be racist, but who will rather spend one nite in a room with a bunch of stranger Singaporeans, and not dare to spend with nite with one bunch of Black Banglas. Why I call them black, argh, okie nvm.
(Side track; oh man Qingfu just came in and started with 4 words, si liao si liao, oh man.. I actually wanted to laugh, because where got people come in and start a convo like that.)
But anyway yar, I was saying about Bangla. Actually I don't like people of darker colours.. okie I M B. Because I think their culture cultivates a type of smell that is normal for them, but they never think that other people might not be able to accept that. Like I think, we should all smell neutral. Recently I've become very particular with smell, I think everyone should bath 2 times, or 3 times a day. Once before you go out, once after you come back, and probably once before you sleep. One of them can be without soup, just cleanse away all the sweat. I personally sweat alot, but I think everyone will sweat more or less, so everyone should bath twice. And now everyone should brush teeth 2 times instead of once, and to lead by example I brush thrice during a weekend last wk. Yes I think everyone should be clean.


Next, let me think of what I should write. I haven written something very intelligent here for a very long time, so I shall think hard. Oh I think NTU should give everyone a big big goodie bag full of snacks during the exam period, because we pay 6000 per year for our education. 6000 per yr * 3 or 4 = SG$18000 or SG$24000 per education. If one pack of goodie bag cost $10, den 10 * 6 or 8 = $60 or $80. Can you believe how much NTU's reputation will improve and spread if people know the school care so much for their student. The goodie pack can add in some medicine like panadol and piriton, to solve some common sickness that students face during studying for exam. I will be so damn touched if someone offer me medicine when I need it, since I always fall to minor illness every now and then. So yar, I think I should be awarded a NTUbel prize for this wonderful recommendation

Cant 2 waffle auntie. I think the nitetime auntie should realli start putting in some effort to their work. Please stop making waffles that are soggily soft and spoil the reputation that the daytime auntie builds everyday. The waffles at night are realli disgusting. The other day I bought one to eat and bought another for my mei and when I reach her place, it was soggily soft, like mian bao like that. So oh my god. And there is red bean inside, it's like eating red bean mian bao. And btw, it's already soggy one hr ago before I reach her place, and I reached her place one hr after I bought.

waha.. is there anyone who wants to play msn games with me? I'm so bored after the IT paper. Next week paper must study one week earlier.. where got logic. and Pulau NTU decrees upon me 3 core papers next week so I wun know which one to study, so I dono what to study, means I cannot study, means I don need to study, I love NTU!

I studied at woodlands library today with zhu.
It was fine initially, with an Indian lady 'chased' away by our small bit of noise, and small bit of disturbance.
Then 2 ACJC MaLAYs came. I was kind enuff to point out to zhu that this guy looks kinda handsome, and I thought he was a Chinese initially. But then they began talking, and talking without whispering is the no. 1 no-no in the library, especially when they are with a table with 2 muggers who are trying so desperately to study hard and Ace NTU's exams. But yes, they talk and talk, and despite the many actions I took such as obviously covering my ears in front of them, they still unashamedly continued to noise us. Then I took the ultimate method, I typed a message and pass my fone to zhu, enuff for them to get the hint. Then they started whispering and talking. I think the guy wasn't bad, but the girl keep talking and talking, and such childish talk like after exams go chiong, or go chiong before exams, how much u get for stats, so do u have any girlfriend before, why u don like that girl, did u tell her, so oh my god. hello this is woodlands NATIONAL LIBRARY, not woodlands couple chitchat park. Do they have to come to a NATIONAL place to declare they someone like them b4, and how they reject bla bla??oh man

thanksfully, we went for lunch soon after. and it was nice, because I had my chicken rice, and we shared the yam paste. But disaster was to struck soon after.

I went back and though they start whispering, the guy emitted a KNNB smell. Like never bath like that, even my dear tutees never had that type of smell before. So oh my god, like so dono wat the world is thinking about them, so ignorant of the surroundings, wat the hell man.

Then I went upstairs, and thank goodness I found a table at our old studying place. So thankful, so thankful, coz I couldn't stand it there already.

Know someone despise me for this now, but I cannot withstand and be ignorant to it, its too much for me!!

Today is a friday night.. and the hall is a quiet place to be in
I think most people have gone home le.. perhaps for the last time before their exam ends.
I am also so tempted to go home, especially after spending 1 whole day studying with my nbs classmates again.. the mind is not burnt out, not tired yet, but just very.. sian =(
Tired of studying.. and i cannot study in such a lonely environment.. this place is realli lonely..

realised too that hall 6 is realli just a living place for me. I'm on different frequency with people of my batch from hall.. lucky i still have alot of friends outside hall, making ntu such a nicer place

Besar trip people is expanding.. I wonder how much fun we will have there after exams. But kinda sad that Hongjing still cannot decide to go or not, I think it will be more fun with him there.. but he's so busy with ABC stuff. So HJ, u must come out w us on the 23rd okie~

MAN U 2 - 2 ARSENAL

what an exciting match!.. the 2 sides attacked from left to right, right to left, up to down, and finally down to inside out all through the 90 minutes! I'm sure everyone in every neighbourhood were making lotsa noise..

anyway I woke up at 10am despite reaching back hall only at ard 4-5am with qingfu.. and went off to yishun starbucks to study again! i'm like a chao mugger.. disgusted with myself..hahaha

anyway I had an interested observation about starbucks today..

starbucks is a very colourful cafe, and they have cute drawings and real-life writings on board everyday. they also have many colourful pictures and package their products in bright colour packaging.. no wonder i feel happy when i'm there, more so than at coffeebean. I think coffeebean is very browish, maybe they wanted to use the coffee colour, but it makes the place more dull, like you wun be happier just by going in. not like starbucks, make me happy!
but the tables are very small, conducive for tokking but not for studying.. i think that was the point.. but i still hope they will make bigger tables.. den i will spend more money going over there to study next time

i'm going to sleep early today because tmr i gonna mug IT. i realli realli hate IT project.. can't describe the amount of hatred for the subject.. i hate comms studies and i hate IT.. i hate 114/214 and i hate 113/213.. argh!!! nvm mr handsome boi.. the bad things are ending!!!!!!

I realise i'm always very grumpy in my entry.. talking about sad things, or negative things, that will know bring about any smile in myself when i re-read it, let alone anyone else reading it..


Today is no different, after a total of 6 hours of sleep in 2 days, I was looking forward to going back sleep after SIA's presentation. However, I ended up getting stuck at some weird IT room where a Indian lecturer used to tell me 'probability' is pronounced 'prostitute', doing IT project part 2/4. Oh my god, where got people still do project now? It's like.. hellozzz.. the whole NBS is talking about FACT, MYOB, EPEACH or QUICKBOOK. All these make no sense to me at the start of the sem.. and they still make no sense to me until now. I'm so glad to have project mates who are as ignorant as me.. or some of them are.. so it makes me feel so much better.

I think I'm a living zombie now.. I don wan to sleep. I want to play FM, but I dono how to start it off, and other den asking me go eat, TOON is NOT replying my msg on how to open it, and qingfu is at cant 1 for the past donkey hours.. when is he coming back!

I think I should go home today, since everyone is home today, and tuition changed to sunday.. hmm hmm maybe go JE buy something first.

oh yes QF is back le..!! hahahah oh yeah..
