Done

What a Relieif ! I feel like a ton of bricks have been lifted off my shoulders. Last exam ended and the troops and I went to Bugis to grab a bite, I was gonna join them to watch a movie but well... my mum. So they went off and I did some shopping then went home and caught up on some sleep. 4 whole hours of solid uninterrupted sleep was worth missing the movie. I got some cool stuff from Bugis as well spent like...40 bucks! I missed my "after-exam-piercing" but I'll make up for it in the Philippines. Cue: evil maniacal laughter.

Last Paper!

Sigh, It's Tuesday and tomorrow's the last day of the exams.. thank god! I mean, I don't know how I survived secondary schools two-papers-a-day policy. Oh yeah, by the way, in case you didn't already know, my birthday was on Saturday! It wasn't really that great, but not that bad either. My parents did get me gifts... Yay! Sunday was the bomb... er... well except for the fact that I had to study for the papers. I am so damn tired and well...all the late night/early morning studying is getting to me.. I need to get some sleep soon or I might just drop dead! Anyways, the fact that the last paper is tomorrow isn't exactly a good thingt... you see... since its the last paper, I'm getting kind of lazy, like I've lost all of the steam. Sigh... I'm not so sure if I can take the long holiday I want because I'm not sure if I'll pass all of my papers. Hope my birthday wish will come true! :D

Studying

I'm doing some pretty last minuite cramming for tommorow's exam and I'm getting kinda nervous. I'm suppoesd to be studying Basic Microbiology but it seems that ther is nothing at all basic about it!! Its insane what we students have to cram into our brains. Thousands, millions maybe even billions of facts stored in this organ less than half the size of my printer. I have a newfound respec for our teachers... well... actualy I'm not so sure that tey know everything they teach us, I mean, they always seem to have notes! I obviously want to pass all subjects but my math hasn't really been en par with my other subjects. Sadly I've let the work slip away from me... I'm typically lost with maths and I can't seem to figure out how to do thisone probability question. it is maddening. Wish me luck!

FOCUS!

There was a storytelling wrap up thing today and guess what!! I got 2 nd highest! Yay ! I just scored an A! Hopefully that's not the last this semester. Had lunch with the storytelling crew... felt like the end of something, its like new year all over again. I had a very weird dream yesterday, and I just couldn't figure out if it was due to watching The Last Samurai or some sort of internal thing. Anyway, in the dream, I was with a big group of people and we were at war with another group on the other side of this very high wall. I remember throwing things over the wall and attacking some people or something. I think we were on a hill. It seemed very real but the events didn't make sense. Anyways, I need to focus on studying, gulp... one more day!

So distracted

Yay!! Laptop's finally fixed!! Thank You Nica!! Perhaps my laptop being fixed isn't exactly a good thing because I just spent a half hour chasing after a Lifehouse song on the internet. I was looking at tabs, lyrics and so on. Sigh I really should get a fire under me. It's just three days until my Basic Microbiology paper and here I am complaining about how the paper is three days away instead of doing something about it. Sigh, I guess I am starting to get a bit complacent. I just found out that the only subject actually at risk of failing is my math. Big whoop! Its always math!! I am just not cut out for numbers. Well, at least it's just math! Oh and by the way, just to demonstrate how distracted I really am, I just finished reading a pocket book this week... consider this, that book is the only book that I have read since November last year!! .Now isn't exactly a good time to read novels but it seems like I just can't help it!!

Study Blues

Okay, here's what's up, I just found some really awesome retro things in case you don't know, retro is me! Pink Floid Rocks! like this cassette belt on the net and well, duh I wanna get them, sadly I cant due to the lack of credit and credit card!! Hahaha, I could always make one, but really I suck with crafts. I really should be studying but I just can't figure out the answer to this particular question so, I took a break. I think this break may be a bit too long since I think I'm going to watch "House" at 10 but anyways, I guess I'll just have to work through the night. I hope I can pass even with all the distractions... sigh. I guess I have to take my own advice to Carissa, here's what I said," look on the bright side, remember, a day closer to the exams is another day closer to the holidays!" Studying is so not my thing!

Stupid Laptop!!

I now hate my laptop. It absolutely refuses to connect to the internet. I have checked the firewalls and the other settings and I still cant figure out what is wrong with that thing so now I am reduced to using the "family" PC. I just don't understand that lump of circuits! It's totally foreign to me how to use a computer, that's right, you've heard it from the horse's mouth, I am computer illiterate. Sure I can use the internet and jazz up my profile and blogs but practically any idiot can do that! Sigh, I miss sitting in my room and multitasking. I don't know if its a hardware problem or a software problem... or maybe it's just the user. Sigh. Anyways, I've got to get back to studying... it is after all, study week. GULP! four days till the exams!! Help!!

Introverted?

I miss writing essays....so I tried to write one: She sits inside herself and ponders. Every thought is precise and specific. There is a focus and clarity. All that’s left of the outside world was just a soft murmur. In the moments she allowed herself to escape the infinite horizons of her mind, the thick intoxicating confines of the outside world overwhelmed and smothered her and she found the slew of confused, unnecessary information hard to filter out. Appearances are hard to keep up so she allowed the façade of fake smiles shatter into the raw awkward silences. Raw, lost and awkward was how she felt when outside of her thoughts. To her friends, clearly something was not right. The loud, enthusiastic girl that they once knew became withdrawn and antisocial.

INTERNET's back!!

Yesterday went pretty nice, storytelling went without a hitch and met up with a very good friend...you know who you are. It was nice to reminisce, it was sad to reminisce, the days of the familiar are comfortable and easy to hang on to. The rough reality is that we have to keep evolving, keep changing for the better. All I hope for is that we can all stay in touch with a bit of the past. The best bits. Here are the pics! The first is my fave! This morning, something great happened....the INTERNET and PHONE LINES were transferred to our new house! Yay!! It was horrible living without the net... with projects to do and everything. I felt like I lost a limb or something. I'm pretty stressed out, with the exams coming in...gulp... 6 days!! Sigh, at least the hols are coming. I'm kinda sad though, CDS is over and I think I'm going to miss looking forward to Storytelling and Psychology classes. I kinda enjoyed them.

so sick

there is no school todaybut here I am in school hogging a computer, all because the phone and internet lines are sill at the old house. I wish my dad would just call the phone company and get it over and done with. Yes anyways, I'm doing my Storytelling project... well at least I was!! Now I'm not... obviously. I am so sick and tired of all the quizzes, just when i think that I have enough time to take a breather, some randome quiz pops up again. I just want to take a night out in town. I am so fun deprived nowadays that I tink I might just be going crazy!

the move

I am so wiped out. Sigh, that so called five day holiday was not exactly a holiday for my family and I. Sigh... the four of us just moved our whole lives to a new location 20 feet away (thankfully!) Yep, we moved, AGAIN. I am so sick and tired of having to live in someone elses house! The worst part of everything is that our phone and internet lines are still at the old house so please... use the cell phone when trying to send a message across. Anyway...sigh.. yesterday I woke up early (gritting teeth--- I am not your morning person) with movers clearing out my room! My mum shooed me out of bed and it was disassembled. Sleepyeyed, I moved to the nearest undismanteled bed and continued dreaming of... well you don't really need to know. I was soon to be reawakened (like frankenstein's monster) by my Dad who was about to take the mattres out from under me! I was ordered to help transfer things from one house to another (I was wearing my bedclothes) ! Thank goodness the appartment

New week

Sigh today started off with a bang... Nah, it really didn't I just wish. I dragged myself out of bed at 7.50 am, took a shower and headed for school. I got there pretty early but for some reason, there was no lecture. (WHY IS IT THAT WHEN I DECIDE TO WAKE UP EARLY, THE CLASSES GET CANCELED!!!) Frustrating much. I went to the library and finished the CSAS group project. Sigh. I'm sleepy. I'm tired and I need to memorize two scripts. Tomorrow I have 2 presentations, one of which I have to wear formal clothes. Its such a hastle. Gulp. Stage Fright much. I'm off to sleep.
