HELLO everyone!!!

I guessed it has been a super long time that I blogged. But, thanks for visiting ( for those who tagged) despite the fact that the blog seems to be dying away. HAHA.

Anyway, I realised that I need to resume abit of blogging habits as I seriously need to vent some emotions here. ^^ Anyway, alot of things has happened recently. Well, there is an 06 outing with my secondary school friends, F6 outing to celebrate kaixin's birthday at Orchard Ion and the (CAC) cultural activities club's freshman orientation camp held during late July. But most importantly, my university's life has started!!! What a great thing to commemorate, isn't it? Owells!!

So, what shall I start? I guessed I can talked alot in this post if there isn't any time constraints. Well, university life has just started for the past one week. One thing that I realised was that I have been sweating profusely in university compared when I was in JC or when I was giving tuition( where I walked a few bus stops to the next tuition class just to save some transport fees =X) It is really quite big, you wouldn't want to walk up and down the North-South Complex alot of times and the weather is super hot. haha. Anyway, Huixin and I are hostel's roommates!!! Although we lived quite near to the university, but we just want to experience a taste of living in a hostel. ( at least for a year, i supposed) Well, the first week of hostel living was quite okay except for a few bugs flying around. (The view outside our hostel is actually the forest.)Anyway, if you want to visit our hall, yes you may! But, be prepared to do train your stamina first as to reach our room, you need to walk a really long flight of stairs. We lived in the 6th floor!!! (-.-")

Academic- wise, I think it is really tough despite the common saying that an undergraduate life is very relaxed. Well, I hope this feeling of it being tough will only be temporary. The professor's lectures are really not as good and clear as my JC lecturers. ( which makes me really missed my JC's lecturers and teachers! )In addition, we are learning new stuff in chemistry. The hybridisation of water and nitrogen is giving me a headache as I still can't visualise. The biochemistry was quite okay if I go back and revise my A'level biology notes. I guessed alot of independent study is required and you got to keep visiting the library to print notes.haha. Sometimes, i really pity the photo-copying machine. They are really " working hard". =D Anyway, kudos to me!! haha. No matter what, I still hope I can conquer over the difficulties faced. =]

That's all I have to say for my current university life. =]

As for the CAC FOC, it is really great! But, I would like to elaborate some other time with some unglam pictures too!! haha.

So, i guess this is a short post. Hopefully, I will have time to post again! Anyway, "FITING " ( korean language) to everyone in whatever you do!!

-signed off at 12.15am sunday ( a day for relaxation? =x)

Well, I finally went to the tea session on saturday. I met up with Linda who was also admitted to the same course as me as well as her friend, fenglan who was also from JJC. Well, it was quite nice that they got fresh shuttle bus to bring us there and the people look friendly. I was surprised to saw Michelle and Jasmine from S8 and Chingkang too. There were quite alot of many people there. The professor gave a welcome speech and stated all the competitive part of the school. We were also given a tour around the place. They filled us with details about how new the school was and how up to date were the equipment with some costing millions. The labaratory was marvellous. I mean, back in my school JC days and sec school days, a class of 30plus pupils were to share a fume cupboard while over there, you got to have your own cozy fume cupboard to perform your experiments. The fume cupboard looks very new too, framed with a sliding "door" and white polishing. Linda and her friend seems to be amused by the fact that we could learn forensic science in year 1. She told me about how her friends who learned forensic science to gather fingerprints using powder.
Well, although the whole place looks really great and new and the professors seems more than willing to teach us and give everyone an opportunity to shine, I just feel that I can't feel myself becoming a chemist and working in a lab in future. However, if there are not many other options, I think I will just accept fate. I do agree that being a chemist actually opens up to a great variety of job and you can switch to another line in future. So, what matters is obtaining that degree yea? I think I need to start loving it. Biology cannot be my option as much as I love it, because I find that my path will be limited.( I don't dare to experiment on animals. =[) It can only be learned as a knowledge and not a career. SIGH. Hopefully heaven will present a miracle for me ^^ I do wish everyone will do well too!!! Whatever the path lies ahead, I think everyone will still have to move on. So xuelian, start loving chemistry!!! C double-bonded to O is back again!

haha.

Other than that, on saturday, F6 finally got a GATHERING !!! YES, I MEAN GATHERING! although sita was not there with us.=[ Thanks to huixin for organising it. Well, it was a belated birthday gathering for natalie. ( Opps! Her birthday was actually very looooong ago!) haha. Hopefully she doesn't mind and I haven't passed her one more gift. Anyway, it was really nice meeting up! I mean I miss all of them! We haven't laughed like crazy for years months! Although I have to leave the group for awhile to attend my Japanese lessons, it was nice that they waited for me to rejoin. However, when I rejoined the group , I realised that they are in a deep state of laughter. okay. I really like laughing with them till your stomach feels pain. Anyway, we had JIA XIANG MIAN for dinner. It was quite nice. Somehow, whenever f5 gathers, I always have this feeling that everyone is looking. So, when they accompany me to the NTUC to buy some groceries, we did became the centre of attraction for a while and also at MAC. =X Well, hope to meet up with them again! And, I awaits the class outing and other events coming up! =D Got to have some life ^^ Perhaps I think this month I might have some social life kicking in. Missed all my friends. =D take care.

Hello!

I guess it have been a super long time since i last blogged. Reason for it, hmm. The first reason is that I think I will blurt out all the sad things that happen to me and the second is that perhaps I have been too addicted to facebook game- Restaurant City. Thirdly is that I don't know where to start. =X

Alright. Updates.
=]

Sadly, I haven't recieve any offer from NUS. They did called me up for a discretionary interview. At first, I thought there was perhaps a glimpse of hope. But, I screwed up the interview. The interviewers seem to shoot some arrows into my heart. First, they asked me "So... you got an E for GP right? " (one shot in the heart) and I was needed to explain that. The second shot come from literature in english marks. And then , the worst is that the mistake came from my part. They asked me to give an example of the recent news except the swine flu. Oh gosh! Why didn't I read the news?!! There, I was stunned by this question. I guess even if I tried to blabber about my leadership qualities in school , I think they don't seem to bother about it. =X I don't know. I just hope these intuitions are wrong.Hopefully, I can be given a chance. =[ Seriously, I am really taken aback by the strong competition. I can't get into my first choice in NTU, and I regretted for not feeling the strong competition beforehand. Now, I feel abit lost about the future. The future seems bleak. My life seems to have alot of regrets. First, I regret not putting more effort in my Alevel. Second, I regretted applying only to two Uni. ( should have apply to all uni ) Third, I regretted not being prepared for my NUS interview. Oh, but life can't be full of regrets. Living regretfully is a horrible feeling. You can't feel happiness from it, it make you sink even lower. So, I tried my best not to think of it and let nature take its course. But, whenever the thoughts came unknowingly, it still haunts. Whenever I see students in uniform in the public, I can't help thinking that I need to tell them to study hard or else you will regret it like me. =[ But then again, these regretful incidents also help me gain some valuable lesson in return.=]

OKay. I don't know if I am paranoid or what.But, hopefully a miracle happens.I don't wish to worry my parents too. Although I got my last choice in NTU ( which I think I put it in without much thought), I think I should try to like it and see what is it like this saturday. =D Yeah. All the best to me and everyone who are still awaiting their acceptance. I think it is a long wait but we got to hang in there i guess. Nothing much to do but wait.

TADA.!

I am practically a "zhai nui"now. Cox, haven't really been intouch with alot of friends. The last friend that I met was Kaixian. And the last last friend I met again was also Kaixian. Just asked her how long it was ago, and this could confirmed that my social life is quite limited. Well, recently have been busy preparing my students for their exams. But, it is really scary. I mean , I think it is only when their exam dates are near, you realise that you haven't prepare them very much for the exams. I think I am even more worried than my students. They are in a playful mood while I was like very nervous when we are revising together. =X Okay. Again , I asked my friend " hopefully" to help. "Hopefully" they will pass their exams. =]]I don't want to be a bad teacher nor a teacher who doesn't help the students improve. But, mummy says I can't stress myself too much over their exams. Just like the 9pm show.=X

Alright. No more time to write on. Got to go and teach tuition. Hope to see everyone soon. =D

Phew!
I am so glad that my misery ended earlier than expected.I mean the matter is not really that serious. But, Miracles do happen!!! It was the fault of the website that I can't book an interview. I thought I can't make it. But well, am so glad that they are not as merciless than they seemed. ^^

Miracles DO happen!
But ONLY occasionally.
I guess it is sill safer to grab hold of chances first rather than waiting for miracles to happen.
I have learnt my lesson the hard way.
I do hope that I wouldn't flounder on the same mistake again. =D

"When chances pass by and you don't grab it, it will be gone forever."

I am living in a moment of regret. I want to turn time back and change everything. It is too big a price to pay for this "small" overlook of mine. Please, I hope miracles do happen...

Although we have our flaws, I am still glad that we don't conflict! =D May this friendship last for the next 10 more years and the next next 10 more years!!! =D By then, I really want to see how it would be like. Hopefully our friendship remains all the same. It is really nice having you as my friend, as my bestie and as my confidente!!! May we brave the greater storm ahead and still play around together!!!

Ohaiyo Gozaimasu!

My Japanese lesson ending soon. The teacher suggested us to continue "basic2". I think I will probably continue since I have nothing to do during a Saturday Night. Time to fork out some money! =D

Anyway, life has been quite dull and boring. I didn't really attended much events. No shopping, no outing at the moment. My life revolved around being a homemaker with my mum acting as my tutor. In short, I know how to cook abit and basically training to be an "obasang" starts now. Well, that's why on one shopping trip to the NTUC, I was super shocked and happy to find that spareribs are selling at less than $1 for 5 pieces. Normally, 5 pieces will probably cost about $3 plus. UHOH! Pardon me! I should have bought 10 packets of 5 pieces back. I mean it is so cheap! And I simply love spareribs. They seems so rare in Singapore but abundant in Malaysia.I told myself if I go back to Malaysia , I must have myself full of spareribs meal. Everyday, I calculate my expenses, it seems that my financial state doesn't seems good. Now, all household food expenses are on me. Hopefully, I can handle well.

Anyway, forgot to blog that Sihua and I went to Little India last wednesday to do threading. I think she is really cute. She did all the research about that place first and even draw a map to know where the great food lies and where skillful threading beautician are at. So, I think I can feel very secure going out with her cox most of the famous places seems to be at her fingertips. =D It was my first threading experience. I am shocked that it was really painful. The thread seemed to transformed into a powerful blade that rubbed against your face. It is even more painful that other types of techniques. The effect was okay. My face smoother. But, I doubt I will try threading the whole face next time except for the eyebrow. Well, cool firsttime experience. But, I think everyone knows you have done threading cox your aftermath temporary redden face just shows it.

We had Indian food at one of the restaurant.Their "dosai" is quite a nice dish and have alot of variety. But, Indian food doesn't really suits my taste as they got all kinds of curries and their desserts are too sweet for me. I am not a great spice lover. Sihua said it was not hot, but I was already grabbing for the nearby glass of water. Anyway, it was a nice cultural experience. The trip there reminded me of my childhood's excursion trip organised by the school. At the same time, I realised I have been there before. Well, we also discovered then that BUGIS and Little India was just a road away! How cool is that! And how sua ku we are! But, it was like we explored it out. HAHA.So, we ended our trip at Bugis.

Hmm, I doubt nothing much happened. Everything is still as normal. Just that I miss my friends!!! All! Cox, it is like I haven't got any social life as I have been cooped up daily at home. My social life currently revolved around my students. No choice, they are having exams soon and I want to earn income. =D


May everyone be happy with what they are doing. ^^So must I.
