If you need to pee you need to pee...

I learnt a lesson today...Always go to the loo before a paper and if you do need to go in the midst of one...just go...Holding it all in today realli messed up my concentration...By the time they gave the a-ok and released us i was sitting cross-legged and looking realli constipated...Dashed out and din even bother to answer weimin's mother who asked me if i had seen him...

What am i doing in NUS?

Dam tired cos i studied non-stop today...again...But afraid i wun be able to sleep tonite cos of first day exam jitters...So blog lor...I went through EWL readings what muz haf been a thousand times...Its just a matter of piecing things together tomorrow...I am so glad to be rid of this module i tell you...Way too much work...

2 days ago, i was just thinking to myself...Why on earth did i pursue a course in EL? I guess i din realli know what i wanted to do when i was younger but it is also so easy to go with the flow and do what everyone else is doing precisely because everyone else is doing it...Now this is a problem...I think our education system is screwed up...My advice to kids therefore is...The sooner u knoe what u wanna do the better. And dun let anyone stop u even if it means gg to poly or ITE...Better some direction than no direction...Dun ever let pple tell you wat u should be doing cos u will regret it...U know y pple get quarter and mid-life crises? Cos they've always been doing not what they want to do but what they think they should do or what others want them to do...

This may mean destroying your parents' dreams...But you should just do it...Dun let them live your life, dun let anyone live your life...Live it the way you want to...just dun regret it...

I know i totally MIA for a good 2 weeks but realli cannot help it man...Up to my neck in work and still am...It does not help that the weather is terrible...So hot dat i can feel my thighs sweat when i am studying...But final lap...I keep telling myself...The last time i will be doing this or at least not until quite a while later...Unless my job requires me to study...I seriously hope not though...I have had enough of chanting to myself for a good 10 over years or so...

Anyway, i was very impressed by the video mandy and de put together...It is realli good...I am realli glad to haf taken EL cos it led me to mit so many people that made my journey in NUS that much more meaningful...So glad to know all of you and will miss the times we shared in the honours rm...

On a totally separate note i just found out that my church fren who is my age is getting married this year...I cant imagine getting married at this age...I still feel so young, unsettled and immature....I mean come on, we are only 18 can...scary...

To everyone taking modules with me this sem...you can bite my dust this coming exam hahaha...
To everyone else, all the best!!! It will be over real soon...

Feeling Absolutely Lousy

I dun know wat's wrong with me this sem...Maybe i'm just very tired but i cant seem to make things rite...I dun understand how all my hard work isn't paying off or showing the results that i would like and i'm very frustrated and disillusioned...How can someone go out with frens, party etc. and yet have a better grasp of concepts or do better in tests than me?- the nerd who studies 24-7...I realli want to give up...Not fishing for compliments or anithing but i realli think i m not as smart as others...Maybe that is why i haf to work doubly hard at everything and that sux...So for the third time in 2 weeks i am redoing my presentation again...All 12 slides the 2nd time and now all 17 slides the third time...I haf no one to blame but myself...I wish i had but i don't...It was my own undoing...The result of me thinking too hard...Working too hard and not smart...I nid balance and i'm gonna try and find it...

Wednesday mornings...

Last wednesday Janice was dam funny...She started speaking to Asraf in broken English in the hopes that he would subconsciously internalize it and blurt it out during his RGS interview...I joined in soon after...We started saying things like "you wants to goes to canteen?" and "good lucks to you", just so he would say "i believes i has the potential" when the interviewers ask him why they should hire him...But no lar...No malicious intent, and Asraf is a little smarter than that...Then again for someone who said "NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF HOSPITAL" when pointing out NUH to a group of pre-U students...hmmm...

Then last last wednesday i wanted to smack prof chng...We were doing an article on the male body for gender class and started talking about what the ideal male body type is for Singaporeans...Quite unanimously, the class said it would be toned...U know, neither skinny nor mesomorphic...Then Rachel, my good'ol reading buddy said an example of such a person was...*drum roll*...ME! (I bot her kopi after tt). Then, Chng was like "shaun? no he's too skinny" and my ego went from PHWA! to PSsssss....Calling a guy skinny is as bad as calling a girl fat...Big no-no...and i realli wanted to let her haf it...Wednesday mornings are so fun...

Haf to stop making empty promises

i think i'm letting studies take over my life again...i've made so many promises to others on my time that i cant seem to keep that its frustrating and disappointing for both them and me. I realli got to stop asking pple out when i know that there is this possibility that it mite not happen becos of work...The thing is alot of the times i realli think i can make it and i realli want to get out of the house but as i get closer to the date i realize that i cant cos the works not complete...I realli apologize to all my frens...

Goatee!

I'm trying to grow a goatee! And as a couple activity, (you know how they have couple tee-shirts rite?) Crustacean has agreed to grow armpit hair...I gave her a choice...It was either she grow a goatee with me or grow armpit hair and she decided the latter...so okay lor...I will grow mine long and thick enuf to curl while she'll grow her's long enuf to perm...Beat that couple tee-shirt-ers!
