#421: TGIF again
Yet another week. Almost a month has passed already...It's Friday again, it's time to brace myself for PE again.
Well luckily napfa's in April so the training will be less harsh after that.
I think i've grown a bit closer to my own class, like i talk to people more often now haha.
I think i might even like this class a bit better than 107/207.
(except some people omg wtf is wrong with them)
I became better at juggling 3 balls hahaha!
Spent the 2 hours before cca near the netball court daydreaming and juggling lol.
Because there was some physics class in our classroom :(
It's like i feel awkward barging in in the middle of class to retrieve my bag and stuff...
I always bring stuff to do but i always end up not doing them orz. Like i often bring a book when i go out, but most of them i end up not reading it ._.
Especially when it's school breaks, i feel so tired that i always don't feel like doing anything...
Oh and i learnt a new (very simple) song on the guitar from XJ!
I can play the simple songs but i feel like i won't be able to get to the higher levels to play more complicated stuff =/
Well it's only been about a week (?) or so... I like the guitar but you'll need to keep the finger calluses and i don't think i'll be able to do that...
I haven't even developed finger calluses yet LOL. Wonder how long it'll take.

#420: TGIF!
Yup it's Friday again.Today ended quite nicely, so i'm quite happy (:
(not the English essay part and lcs chasing me for mentor rep nominations ugh... srsly what is wrong with him)
Had some fun with juggling and the guitar before cca, and cca was kind of fun haha.
Started a new song which sounds quite fun to sing. That soprano opening line which sounds vaguely like Phantom of the Opera... xD
I think it was because i napped yesterday for like 3 hours, so i wasn't that sleepy today lol.
Redid my 500px account with proper photos~
Taking photos for a personal project~ I have like 2 photography projects in which one of them is quite casual haha.
I don't get Lightroom so i'm using Photoshop to do minimal editing LOL. I really like the 'expressive' mode of my mirrorless camera :D
(omg OMD waaaannttt)
Gonna try to learn guitar soon~ with a secondhand guitar from Ben who bought it from XJ who bought it from a flea market in Tokyo for 100 yen LOL.
But omg the next chem chapter is so long. I haven't started and chem is on Tues!!
I'm so not gonna get any JLPT N2 studying done orz.
And gosh my skin is like super dry because of the aircon classroom ><

So yesterday was the first proper PE lesson, in which i completely died.Not only did we have to run 2.4km, we did 2 sets of 20 dips, 30 crunches and front, left, right planks for 1 min+. IN THE FREAKING HOT SUN. why was the sun so freaking hot that day at that time huh?!! (no srsly it was the hottest i've ever felt, like 33C or something. i could totally feel my skin burning up wtf) AND OUR PE TEACHER STILL WANTED TO HAVE A GAME OF END ZONE CAPTAIN'S BALL EVEN THOUGH WE ONLY HAD 5 MINUTES LEFT WTF. was struggling to do planks because my elbows were really painful. and my back was painful during crunches >.>
Yep, and after that i still had CCA which meant 2 hours of standing up. And by then i already had a horrible throbbing headache which constantly attempted to make my head explode. Then trip back home squeezing on public transport. I literally wanted to just die okay. Had dinner and went home feeling like a trainwreck. I think all the stress inside me just exploded then and i broke down and cried :(
(ARP with me doing like most of the work even though there are 3 members, STUPID SCHOOL NOT TELLING US WE COULD GET ENVELOPES FOR FREE WHICH RESULTED IN ME SPENDING 4 BUCKS ON A PACK OF ENVELOPES BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T COME IN SINGLE ENVELOPES, me not knowing many people in Dev Bio class and ended up in a shitty group for all my pracs + presentation which probably means i'll be doing most of the work AGAIN, horrible PE...)
Actually it's just mainly that i'm really tired of being in shitty groups with people who don't do work and me doing most of it. Fuck school.
Slept early last night because of my horrible throbbing headache. Still had a bit of a headache today, and muscles aching all over -_-
It's like i feel a little dizzy but at the same time it's not really dizziness idk??
Argh i think it's due to lack of sleep too. AND THE STUPID FREAKING SCORCHING SUN.
I really can't survive waking up at 6am seriously. That means i'll have to sleep at like 10pm in order to not collapse due to lack of sleep. Idk i feel like i need more sleep than other people. And usually i sleep at 11pm++. Can't wait for CNY holidays so i can wake up later.
Oh and we had our first chem quiz today. I didn't do as bad as i expected... i hope. /fingerscrossed LOL/
I /think/ i managed to get the ionic equation writing right, and the last question too. I think i made mistake(s) in the mcq though... I think i'm really careless orz.
Argh this is annoying. Even though ARP's done i still have to prepare the poster and presentation... I don't feel like going for SSEF >.>
I really don't know if i'm gonna be able to tolerate all this for the rest of this year.
The only thing i'll be looking forward to regularly is like, my Japanese lesson on Saturdays =/
I'm really scared about uni, i feel like i know absolutely nothing about uni.
Though at the same time i'm excited about what i can do after graduation and before uni...
Working in Kinokuniya would be nice... (but the travelling won't be lol... unless it's the Jem branch)

Well, so i went to do chem notes 1.2 and discovered that i could do it without much trouble... (well i had to refer to the textbook for 1 mcq...) Turns out i'm only really bad at chem reactions???
Idk why but i really can't do "A + B → what?" T~T
Someone teach meeeee T~T
And somehow i never bothered to remember all the stuff like strong acids/bases or even the different types of reactions and solubility rules... i guess other people just got used to it???
Sigh idk how am i gonna level up for chem reactions before next week's chem quiz which is on Tues D:
Guess i'll try doing some questions but i tried once and only managed to do like, 1 reaction >.>
So i had my first Japanese lesson today. Chua sensei is super interesting LOL. Lots of jokes and even dialects. I knew Chua sensei by a different name in A class though, Shinkou sensei. C class is using a textbook i've never seen before o_o. It seems to be limited to classroom use? C class seems like a huge jump from B class though. B class was short conversations and passages and now the C class textbook has like page-long passages umm. Saw words that i studied before~ (it's satisfying LOL) C class seems like it's gonna be challenging... i'm not sure if i'm even gonna have time to self-study for JLPT N2 in July anymore gosh ;-;
I was kind of like, isn't C class supposed to be N3? Why does it seem to difficult??
Oh and Bugis Bunction has quite a few new shops!! Chocolate Origin and Choco Express haha. That $5 chocolate lava cake with ice cream from Chocolate Origin is very tempting... (but ex lol)
Also it feels like the leisure/entertainment side of my life is slowly fading away and being replaced with (school)work =.=
I used to play MMORPGs regularly a long time ago. I used to read lots of books. I used to watch tons of anime.
Now, i only do those once in a while...
Sian still have ARP presentation poster to do.

#417: ARP should just die in the depths of hell
I REALLY NEED TO RANT OR I WON'T BE ABLE TO STAND THIS ANYMORE.THIS 3-MEMBER TEAM FEELS MORE LIKE A 2-MEMBER TEAM. BECAUSE 1 MEMBER HASN'T DONE A SINGLE THING FOR THE REPORT AT ALL. NOT A SINGLE PART. NOT EVEN THE PART ASSIGNED TO HER. SO. 2 OF US FINISHED UP THE REPORT NICELY. SENT TO PHD STUDENT TO READ THROUGH. RECEIVED "COMMENTS" WHICH WERE REALLY JUST EDITS TO OUR REPORT. I EDIT THE REPORT ACCORDINGLY AND SEND IT BACK TO HER. AND THEN SHE SAYS: "I think you just accept the changes without going through it!" DUDE. FIRSTLY, ALL SHE DID WAS SPELL OUT THE NUMBERS, AMENDED ONE OF THE CHEMICAL'S NAME, REPHRASED STUFF AND OTHER TECHNICAL STUFF. IT WASN'T EVEN LIKE THERE WERE PROBLEMS WITH OUR DATA ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION AND WE JUST ACCEPTED HER EDITS. SECONDLY, WE ARE RUSHING FOR SSEF. DO YOU THINK I CARE ABOUT YOUR REPHRASING??? THERE WAS ONE PART SHE REPHRASED SOMETHING GRAMMATICALLY CORRECT INTO SOMETHING GRAMMATICALLY WRONG TOO. AND THERE WAS THIS SENTENCE SHE ADDED WHICH MADE NO GRAMMATICAL SENSE AT ALL SO I HAD A FREAKING HARD TIME TRYING TO UNDERSTAND WHAT SHE WAS TRYING TO SAY. I MEAN SHE'S A FOREIGNER SO I DON'T BLAME HER FOR HER ENGLISH, BUT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY "I think you just accept the changes without going through it!"??? HOW DID YOU EVEN GET TO THAT CONCLUSION??? WHAT DID YOU EVEN WANT ME TO DO ABOUT YOUR "COMMENTS" HUH. ASK ABOUT YOUR /REPHRASING/???
gosh.
And now i'm struggling really badly with chem. It's like i never really studied chem before, seriously. I can't tell if a compound is acidic/basic/soluble/insoluble etc =.=
I decided to take the CM6207 module to right my chem foundation, but i hope i won't regret taking it... uhhh.
Why isn't everything else as easy as math T_T
And SSEF is really annoying. A whole bunch of forms to fill up and you even need passport photographs wtf?? And then when you don't even make it past the 'first round' after all that trouble... -.-
sigh,
just a few days into school and i'm already this fed up.
and uni doesn't seem any better either.
