I'm so happy as of now because ALL projects for this sem have been submitted! Okay lar, I really think I put in much lesser effort for this sem's projects as compared to last sem, summore this sem's projects seem less "time-consuming" as compared to last sem. But still, all projects suck. And whether I do well or not is another story. But like I mentioned b4, my project mates this sem are all powerhouse, so I can safely "free-ride" throughout w/o much worries of the grades. HOPE SO LAR. If do badly also no choice.....
And what's left now is intensive mugging for exams. And did I say I hate KEYNESIAN MODEL or donno watever shit u call tt. Microeconomics give ppl the wrong idea that econs seem "understandable", until after the recess week, when it's all Macroeconomics then I realise how shit econs can be.
Owellz, time to MUG very hard for this sem. Pls give me at least one blardy A- for this semester pls. I know all my classmates only aim for A or A+ (even A- seems abit cui for them) and here I am struggling to aim for A-. Haiz, life can be demoralising when u know u r just so cui compared to the majority of the ppl around u.

OB sucks
Half a semester has passed, and I can safely conclude that the MOST DISGUSTING module in this semester is Organisational Behavior (OB). Seriously, with like 25% of the people getting C or D grade for the mid-term test (weightage is 20%), it is one of the most hated module considered by all. And yes, I did super disgustingly for this test as well. Screw OB... No wonder Xueli was saying OB is disgusting as well.
Many people always say OB is just COMMON SENSE and no need to study much 1. Kaoz, obviously not people have "common sense" to understand OB, and I happen to be one of them.
Seriously, stats/econs/acctounting is 1000000000 times easier than OB, as far as I can see from the results of the various tests I got back this week.... At the start of the sem, I was thinking maybe I can perhaps get one blardy 'A-' for OB becuz initially many ppl said it's easy. I think if I can even get B for OB is already MIRACLE.
OB sucks! Thank goodness I'm not business student, if I kana stream into Human Resource Consulting, I'll probably go knock wall liaoz.....

Finally I got myself down to studying for stats!! But to be frank, I seriously donno why the hell I am learning all the things (as in those yr1 modules). Almost 99% of the time I'm juz studying w/o understanding and after exam will basically forget everything because they don't really make much sense to me. Xueli was asking me yesterday about how to use Financial Calculator about donno wat CF, think she 4get how to press liaoz. And amazingly, when I look at my financial calculator, I realised I also donno how to press too!!! Owellz, FM sucks to the core!
On a side note, special term modules are already out. And while I was looking at them, think some of the modules are quite okay arz. So I guess if time-table doesn't clash, I will want to register 4 modules of electives and that will be 12AUs in total. And if I clear 2 more electives in each of my yr2 sem1 and sem2, I'll be left with 16 AUs by the time I start sch in yr3!! Okay, and obviously I want to clear all of that during that sem and I REALLY REALLY hope I can GET OUT of NBS by Dec 2010 (tt's like end of next yr).
Some of my classmates were talking abt working during the 3 months holiday, and sumhow I ended up sharing this with some of my classmates. A few were saying y am I "rushing" my time-table!? Trying to complete within 2.5 yrs. 3 yrs is already very slack, let alone 2.5 yrs. Then others also said u r supposed to enjoy your "uni life" instead and not juz cramping until u miss out all the happening stuff in sch. Owellz, so I told them my frank feelings:
Regardless whether I study 3 yrs or 2.5 yrs, I don't think I will ever miss my time in NBS. So forget it, I don't really have much favorable memories in tt place anyway. Okay lar, some of my classmates are really nice people. Other than that the environment sucks. Hence, my aim is not because I want to go work earlier or whatever shit. I juz want to GET OUT that @%^& sch ASAP. Secondly, I don't feel proud to be a student of that sch. In the past, I used to scold my classmates who wear NBS t-shirt for lessons, walking around with those disgusting t-shirts. Okay, I only wear it for sleep becuz it's FREE, and other than that, I really find that t-shirt disgusting to the max.
All right, enough of grumbling. Time to continue studying more stats.

Good bye Chief
Today I went for my chief's funeral wake which was held at Kallang, followed by the burial ceremony at the Muslim Cemetery in Lim Chu Kang (amazingly close to my camp)
Up to now, I really can't accept the fact that she just passed away like that... According to those who r still in branch, she was still working on Fri and then on Fri night itself, this unfortunate thing had to take place. Nobody could believe things just had to happen this way, she was really a well-liked warrent officer by many people, especially those who had worked under her. I could still remember the days when she always joked with us, then outside of camps treat us to meals sometimes, and most importantly is that she treats everyone very well!! Sometimes gossiping with us how some XXX officer is so sucks, or how she kana arrow the work from S1, and blah blah... She was really a forgiving person, I remembered that my old CO used to hammer her alot, in the sense of giving her alot of troubles by keep scolding her. Although she was very pissed off, she said that she won't hold any hatred becuz she believes that there's no point in having a grudge for that. And she believed God is watching over everything that is happening.
I couldn't control my emotions at the burial ceremony juz now when they were saying the last prayer for her and were about to cover her body with the last bit of sand. Everyone just felt so emotional at that point of time.
The last time I saw her her was during my ORD day when I got back my pink IC. After I ORD, I was still chatting with my friends in MSN that one day must go back 4SIR to find her and give her a surprise visit! And she was even telling us camp very sianz, next time meet outside better... HAIZ, and I really can't understand why things have to turn out this way in seeing her for one last time.

Those fond memories with her juz instantly came flashing back when I saw her body at the wake just now. It seems as if these happy events juz happened ystd and are so fresh in my mind now. The most memorable day is when she invited us to her house during Hari Raya and cooked all the nice nice food for us.. Seriously, she's more like an elder sister to all of us!!

Those who have worked with you will remember the wonderful memories you have brought to us. I just hope that Chief has left this world peacefully with no regrets, and that her family will remain strong in the remaining days to come...

OB test sucks
I'm so farking SCREWED for the 20% OB test just now. For that 40 marks case study answer, my WHOLE answer was on this "Mr. A". But I realised that the ques were asking for "Mr. B". OBVIOUSLY I'm really pajiao that I only realised it when after the test, my friends were discussing abt it. Excellent. Will I even get a 'C' or 'D' for this test..............
At the moment, I realised I am totally lost in statistics and accounting, and I don't know why everyone seems to understand those "accounting jargons" yet I am the only one who seem to be alien to those terms. All right, I shall devote 90% of my RECESS next week to study stats and accounting before I'm lost in further shit.
I love school. I love NBS.

Friday, February 06, 2009
So glad that I finished my OB case study presentation ystd, and it was still not that bad. So as of now, I'm left with the OB and accounting group report to hand up.
Today I had a shock of my life when I found out in my accounting project grp, all my 4 grp-members are going for INSTEP/GIP (student exchange) next semester. Initially we were just discussing accounting project when suddenly one guy kinda "screamed" in excitement "OMG!! I GOT INTO INSTEP!!" And without much delay, the other 3 also checked their approval online and all 4 of them were approved to study overseas next year. It's kinda obvious that with GPA of 4.75 and 4.5 etc, there's no doubt they got approved.
Anyway, they will be going to Canada/USA and they were seriously SO HAPPY arz. Being kaypo, I asked them whether are they on scholarship and how much it cost. Surprisingly, none of them were on scholarship (despite this Godly result) and they said they will be using their own money to pay for this student exchange. According to them, the expense to go on exchange in North America is like $10,000 (but one guy said he has a senior who went Canada and if you spend carefully, it's possible to spend only $7,000....)
Okie, at that moment I seriously felt so farking JEALOUS of them. No lar, maybe i shld say I'm envy of them. Then 4 of them started to turn their attention on me, asking me to try going INSTEP as well. Telling me all the FUN stuff abt exchange, saying it's "once in a lifetime", can learn alot things,blah blah. Okie lar, I know they were too excited and so they were sharing with me this good news. But obviously they didn't know how disgusting my GPA was last sem, so I juz replied I didn't really know much abt this student exchange thing and so I didn't apply(which is obviously a big fat lie).
Fine, so they will all be enjoying their life in USA/Canada. And I'm stuck here in this shit place which I really can't wait to get out. Na-Beh Sch sucks big time.

4 weeks of sch have passed thus far.
Owellz, starting to get busy with projects, especially OB CASE STUDY PRESENTATION next week for my grp. I really donno if the professors are trying to "stretch" our limit by making us apply concepts that are FROM OTHER CHAPTERS of the TB.
Seriously, if it's like towards the end of the semester, then I think it's still okay cuz I think by then most of the chaps in the TB are covered, and it will be easier to apply since we have the knowledge. BUT NOW!? My knowledge of OB can be said to be as close as not knowing anything. I only have 3 lessons thus far and that's only 4 chaps covered. And hence, alot of time commitment has to be made reading the WHOLE TB on our own to apply OB concepts (most which are not yet taught) is like SO @#$%^&*. Haiz, spent alot of time reading the entire OB text and I think my grp is just applying concepts which we think can be "relevant" to our case study. Most groups that are presenting after recess week definitely has much advantage... Owellz, suck thumb, at least being the 1st grp to present means being able to get it over and done with so that life will be slightly less taxing, since the OB and accounting written reports are only due after recess week....
Having mentioned that I have totally brand new classmates for all modules this sem, I can say that it kinda exposed me to more "variety" of people. Lolx. But I seriously think that this sem I'm quite lucky to get very pro classmates to do project with. Okay lar, not that my last sem classmates are not good, but I think my project-mates this sem are really very good in doing projects, with one guy even getting A+ for 3 modules' projects (and his GPA of 4.75) make me nearly want to worship him. Wah laoz, last sem my projects are so screwed, especially that disgusting FM project which I got B- really makes me sianz 1/2. Owellz, hope that my project grades can be BETTER this sem...

Sem2 time-table! (Part 2)
So the "STARS war" has not yet ended. Based on my supposedly "finalised time-table" in my previous blog post, deep in my heart I know there's 2 things tt could have been "better".
Issue #1: I think 3 tutorial slots on Tuesday is killer, especially when the tutorials always need u to bring ur TB cuz the tutorial questions are all from there and the tutors are so lazy to even scan the ques into for us to print. Owellz, bottom line is bringing 3 thick TB to sch on every Tues seems quite tedious.
Issue #2: Despite endless battles in "STARS war", I still ended up with 5 days. That sucks, especially when I don't stay in hall. So I believe it could have been better if I can change my 4 hrs OB seminar to THURS instead of FRI. Apparantly it seems that all the Biz students are given Thurs OB slots; Accting students the Fri OB slots, so I felt rather helpless as I didn't have tt many business friends who r in the same grp as me to "trade" with me.
2 days ago, I managed to find a AB103(statistics) vacancy on MONDAY afternoon. That sounds great because I can shift my Tues stats lesson to that of Monday. Owellz, so I'm basically "free" on Tues 830am to 10am liaoz. Issue #1 solved.
And then LAST NIGHT (STARS operate from 10am to 10pm only), when I came back from CCA and was so tired but decided to check out the slots in STARS planner, realised that there's TWO empty vacancies for Thurs! OMG, obviously I was so happy because for the PAST ONE WEEK, i realised that Fri slots are ABUNDANT and Thurs slots are so scarce (everyone hates lesson on Fri).. But it was already like 11+pm, and I told myself that next day morning at 10am (which is just now), I BETTER CLICK FAST FAST FAST so that I can get a Thurs slot. This time I cannot afford screw it up liaoz!! And thankfully, I GOT THE THURS SLOT!! Piangz, the feeling of being able to change from 5 days week to 4 days week... Is like winning a small lottery? Wahahz, okie lar, but I'm sure a very happy guy now in my so-called "perfect" time-table.

Wahahz, okie lar, but I'm sure a very happy guy now in my so-called "perfect" time-table.
I donno y my file cannot be clicked. So Wednesday remains a very slack day with 3hrs lect in the afternoon. And Thurs will be a very long day from 830am until I have 2 hrs lect in afternoon and later CCA at boys home from 8pm to 9pm, reaching back home at almost close to 11pm. But it's okay, since Fri is FREE-DAY!!
And on a side-note, I realised that I really really have alot to catch-up on my elective because I realised I 4get so much thing that I don't even know whether hydrolysis is use water to form smth or smth to form water. -_-''' I need help in CBC122 "Biological Chem 2".

Sem2 time-table!
The moment that I have been waiting for a VERY LONG time; ADD-DROP PERIOD.
While I was browsing through the "photo gallery" of all my 4 core modules, it's obvious I didn't know anyone AT ALL. That sucks and hence I decided to anyhow add-drop!!! At about 6+pm, I was already starting to keep a very close look-out for the available vacancies for the tutorial classes. As any NTU students will know, even if you are late by like ONE SECOND, it makes a very big diff whether u get tt module anotz. After much "effort" in this stupid STARS war, owellz, I think I managed to get a "better" time-table. (I feel so arz)
This is my initial disgusting time-table:
And then I keep changing my time-table until I didn't know what I was doing. I think I changed at least 3 times for each of my AA102, AB106 and AB103. And I decided to drop the stupid MP8082 and to take CBC122. Owellz, don't care already, since my time-table is already so shitty, so I might as well take things into my own hand.
And my time-table after STARS-war:
I know Tuesday is super shitty cuz there's like 9 hrs lesson. But luckily 3 hrs out of these 9 hrs are alternate weeks tt kind, so still not tt bad. And basically all my tutorial classes change except my AB105 seminar which is on Friday remains the "same as initial". HAIZ, can some good-hearted ppl give me AB105 on Wednesday or Thursday morning!!!!????
But still, I didn't manage to get any class to be the same as my sem1 classmates. OWELLZ, which is to say I will still be a loner w/o knowing anyone...............#$%^& . SIANZ.
And on a side-note, I really regret why I go throw away my A-levels chem and bio notes!!! ARGZ, I'm taking a module "Biological chem...." HAIZ, must learn from scratch again.
Monday, December 15, 2008
I'm finally done with elective course registration, and although it's just to select ONE elective, but I just put 10 choices. Only 2 modules out of the 10 have vacancy > waitlist, so okie arz, the other 8 choices can say is put for show only. And the sucky part is having to look at which course has the LEAST waitlist, whether exam easy, whether got clash etc etc. Waste alot of time indeed.
And last Fri went back for some stupid reservice talk at Mandai Hill Camp. Apparantly it has been confirmed that the very first actual "call-back" will be 2009 Dec, that mens must bring alot of shit back to camp and stay for a few days. Okay lar, not tt bad, as long don't touch me during the 3 months holiday from May to July can liaoz. And by the time it's Dec 2009 I will have completed "50%" of my 3 yrs in na-beh sch.
And for some reason, I realised that apparantly there's really NOTHING much I can do to change my disgusting time-table. Haiz. So be it, if cannot change then juz have to stick with it. 14 weeks, haiz, it's neither long nor short. Really hope in my totally "new classes" can have nice classmates to COPY tutorials and DO projects with.

While I was outside just now, my friend suddenly sms me and say "hey! time-table out liaoz, can check out whether same anotz". Then I recalled my yr3 friends told me b4 in yr1, mostly ur classmates for sem2 will be same as in sem1, since it's fixed. Then I was thinking "aiyaz, should be no need check, sure same class 1"
The classmates that I have this sem, I really think overall they are a nice group of friends to have. Seriously, in such a competitive environment, who is willing to lend u tutorials to copy? who's willing to answer ur queries when all I have to do is sms them n say "paisehz az, can I call u to ask u smth? I donno how to do this this this", who's willing to share IDEAS with u although all of u r from different project groups sumtimes? A normal person will just think "Aiyaz, fuck off lar, u different project grp as me, why shld I share with u" They have "extra notes" that they got from seniors or ppl from other classes, a NORMAL person would just KEEP QUIET and not share with any1. Right? SELF-INTEREST is normal human nature. But they r juz willing to send around although they have nothing to gain by sharing with us. Okay arz, I wouldn't say I'm close to EVERYONE, but can say at least got 5 guys n also some of the gals.
No doubt that the group of friends that I make r really very helpful.
When I checked my time-table just now, I was kinda shocked how come I got 5 days week, when they told me they got 4 days week. At first only a few people, like 4 to 5 of them r online, then all of them got the same time-table, n obviously they were happy. I was still in "self-denial" that perhaps surely got ppl same as me rite? Not so SUAY arz? I was thinking maybe at least got 2 out of 4 modules can same rite? (SELF-DENIAL)
Then more n more ppl came online to check as well, THEN almost the 15 to 20 ppl that were in my sem1 classes are all allocated to the SAME tutorial/sem classes for ALL the modules for next sem2. Shiok. Can do project together.
AND I!? I GOT A FARKING TIME-TABLE THAT WAS TOTALLY DIFFERENT FROM THEM. DIFFERENT CLASSES FOR ALL THE MODULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They were all very shocked and puzzled also lar, then they go ask around other ppl whether same anotz. THEN APPARANTLY like ALL OF THEM ARE TOGETHER for next sem!? ALL GOT THE SAME TUTORIAL CLASS SLOTS!?
Just face up to reality. I kana OUTCASTED from the class. Fark. Why did na-bei sch (NBS) do this to me!? My classmates were all trying to cheer me up say during add/drop then try my luck, at least can join back all of them again. BUT STILL, if originally I am in at least same class with them for 2 modules out of 4, still not too bad. The problem is ALL 4 CLASSES are DIFFERENT!? How on earth am I going to change the time-table. And another issue is, I DON WAN 5 days week lar, kaoz, seriously, take 4 modules only, study 5 days is STUPID.
The thought of having to see TOTALLY new classmates really turn me off. I mean it's okay if EVERYONE doesn't know each other (e.g like when u just enter Uni), so still not tt bad. BUT WAH LAOZ, I really think that the ppl in my "new classes" will already have formed their own cliques and I'm almost confident that I can be a loner for the whole of next sem. Farked-up.
I hate Na-Bei Sch(NBS). NBS sucks. Nevertheless, I shall try my best to ADD-DROP, although chances are slim, since it's all about "fastest finger win the game". While everyone else is happy that they can still be in same class, I'm here looking at what I can do during the add-drop. Sucks.
The classmates that I have this sem, I really think overall they are a nice group of friends to have. Seriously, in such a competitive environment, who is willing to lend u tutorials to copy? who's willing to answer ur queries when all I have to do is sms them n say "paisehz az, can I call u to ask u smth? I donno how to do this this this", who's willing to share IDEAS with u although all of u r from different project groups sumtimes? A normal person will just think "Aiyaz, fuck off lar, u different project grp as me, why shld I share with u" They have "extra notes" that they got from seniors or ppl from other classes, a NORMAL person would just KEEP QUIET and not share with any1. Right? SELF-INTEREST is normal human nature. But they r juz willing to send around although they have nothing to gain by sharing with us. Okay arz, I wouldn't say I'm close to EVERYONE, but can say at least got 5 guys n also some of the gals.
No doubt that the group of friends that I make r really very helpful.
When I checked my time-table just now, I was kinda shocked how come I got 5 days week, when they told me they got 4 days week. At first only a few people, like 4 to 5 of them r online, then all of them got the same time-table, n obviously they were happy. I was still in "self-denial" that perhaps surely got ppl same as me rite? Not so SUAY arz? I was thinking maybe at least got 2 out of 4 modules can same rite? (SELF-DENIAL)

Technically speaking, exam for sem1 has come to an end. And I REALLY HATE Financial Management to the max. !#%%$#%&^&. AB102 SUCKS. I don't care if people from non-business/accounting degrees have been telling me how EASY it is to get A+ or A for finance, it's obvious that I happened to be in the minority. And it doesn't help to know that 2 days ago, the coordinator decided to put our 20% project grade up on the internet, to find out how my group has done WAY BELOW cohort average and it's really cui lar. Thank goodness this is the ONE and ONLY ONE finance module I'm taking....
And so next Sunday I'm having JLPT3. Taking into account I haven't touched Japanese for the past 4 months, it's obvious that I have forgotten almost 95% of what I should have known. Owellz, time to mug for this "unofficial" exam b4 I can sit back and relax for the the remaining 1 month holidays.

Wah piangz, I really think my biz law tutor is SUPER bias (as far as 20% participation marks are concerned.. mind u, it's alot....).
It's quite AMAZING that ppl who DON'T TALK for the past 12 weeks (And seriously I really don't remember hearing these ppl's voice) get A or A+ for class participation. And then ppl who contribute significant answers regularly get like 'A-' or 'B+"...
Owellz, nth is fair lar, project also can have ppl pay money for others to do.. What's new?
But I really super buey song how ppl can juz talk RUBBISH and still consider as contributing "signicantly" to class participation. That's really pure bullshit.
And today marks the end of my LAST lesson in NTU for this sem, ogosh.. Time to mug.

Super cui...
I realised that I have skipped a total of 3 biz law and 3 accounting lectures for this sem and I know I really shouldn't be doing that anymore. But on the other hand, I realised that it really makes NO DIFF whether I go biz law lect anotz, cuz the lecturer is really... *no comments*.. in case kana SUED for "defamation" as I learnt in Biz Law recently... And I realised my CLASS PARTICIPATION for my accounting and biz law tutorials are SIMPLY CUI TO THE MAX. Like the LOWEST u can ever get. Although the good thing is the grade now is only "temporary" and I still got chance to talk cock in class to earn class particupation...Anyway, I guess subsequently I will be talking nonsense in tut class in order to make-up for the fact that I never really talk at all for all the tut classess so far.
Kaoz, the problem with a SMALL tutorial class is that you are expected to "contribute" more in class discussion.. But that doesn't really matter in a Seminar-style like FM or IT because firstly u have no chance to talk and secondly, SO MANY ppl, u wan talk also very difficult. HAIZ HAIZ HAIZ, and I realised I have TUTORIALs before recess week that's still NOT YET DONE.. Kaoz, I really think this sem if I can get reasonable "B" for all my modules will be quite ABOVE EXPECTATION already....

Didn't blog for such a looooooooooong time. And not only that. I think I didn't use much of MSN nowadays, with the exception to come online to QUARREL with projectmates. Haiz, seriously, I think what really TAKES UP most of my time is not doing tutorial or studying for quiz. It's doing STUPID PROJECTS! And to add on, I realised that my class guys, MOST of them r usually very punctual for project meetings. Girls on the other hand is like................
Last Sat I told my FM group to meet 8am at SMU admin building, cuz it's convenient for everyone. So at 8am, only the other guy and I are present. Fine, then I called the other 2 girls, one is "on the way", the other NEVER even bother picking up my call after like 3 calls. So the first girl was pretty EARLY, reaching at 830am, which was considered NOT BAD already. I can't be bothered by the other gal, and then at abt 9am, this gal SMSed to say "Sorry, I have some family matters to attend to, I'll reach ABIT late". And in the end she reached at 10am, and when she came down, she looked as if nth has happened. What a blardy bitch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not that I have any thing AGAINST this person. but I observed from week1 till NOW, for every SINGLE lesson, she will always come 5 to 15 minutes LATE for class, regardless what modules it is. It's so obvious until EVERYONE in my class knows she's FOREVER late... But being 2 hours late is really abit @#$%^&*. Sometimes I really curse that during the up-coming final exams, she will just be 30 minutes late...
And today's meeting(for another module) is QUITE bad also, but NOT AS BAD as that previous group. Supposed to meet 9am, I'm the first to reach. Then subsequently the other 3 person came 15 min late at 9.15am. Then left our GROUP LEADER, but nvm, maybe she's busy or what. We just started w/o her since most r already present. Then suddenly at 945am, she called me to say "OMG! Real sorry! I overslept~! Paisehz, I'll reach asap" (Luckily she stays in hall) But still, by the time she reached it's already 1030am.
So the morale of the story is: "It's definitely 100000000000000 times more efficient to do projects with guys than gals becuase the gals will think that being 30 min to 2 hrs late is NORMAL and as if the whole group is obliged to wait for her"
So farked up. I feel like playing a prank on the gal and say the next meeting is at 8am, then I will wake up from my home at 8am....... -_-'''

So just now I just came back from the Summer Festival event at Changi Japanese School. Overall it was quite fun, but the rain was a total turned off arz. Initally it should have been in the open space, but due to the rain, everything was shifted indoor and yalorz, abit squeezy.
As I have a friend who's currently in NTU 4th year EEE programme, he introduced to me about 5 of the Japanese exchange programme students who also just reached Singapore only. Ogosh, I nv know that Japanese students will really come Singapore for exchange programme arz, I mean if like those kind 10 days still okay, but from what I found out from them, they will be studying in NTU for one sem (1/2 year) and some will be studying 1 full year for 2 sem till next year May.
So obviously I got very exicted that perhaps I can do abit of net-working and to find some native Japanese to practise my horrendous Japanese-speaking. But aiyaz, I think all of them are currently attached as year3 or year4 Economics programme in NTU.. BUT NVM, cuz I think NBS is just NEXT to NTU Humanities block, so very near also. A few of them stay in NTU hostel, but most of them are actually renting HDB units to stay in.. Always thought that exchange students will be like 100% stay in hall.. Owellz, nvm.
Then they told me they LOVE Singapore until they don't want to go back Japan, even though only came here like 1 month ago only... Lolx, quite shocking arz. Then they say Japan not good lar, say Singapore very good, say Singaporeans are very NICE people, say Singapore environment very good...blah blah, as if Singapore is SO WONDERFUL that they don even wan to go back. Most of them in fact say if possible, they will hope to come back Singapore for some sort of exchange programme again. Say until like they so fun and excited to come here.
As I heard that, I felt I was like an extreme opposite of them. How I wish I can get the hell out here and go Japan to study arz. But obviously I nv say that lar. But okay lar, cuz technically speaking, they are as new as me to NTU, so nth much we can talk about also.. Just say exchange MSN and contact next time can meet up for lunch in sch. Ogosh, the mere mention of all these things make me feel so excited lar!
Now back to school stuff. Haiz, school is really an ultimate SIANZNESS, especially with projects and soon-to-come presentations to be done. Although I'm only 4 days work week, but majiam I got no time to study at all, WASTING alot of time meeting up people in sch to do projects, and go home must do projects, and watever shit projects that's never-ending. Luckily I can clique well with some of my class guys, if not it will be even more sianz to go sch arz.
Talking about CCA, it's really another shit thing lar. The process of joining CCA simply pissed me off, and now I also donno what CCA should I commit myself to.. I gave myself either Japanese club or Invesntment club or welfare club. Really a pain in the ass to even choose a CCA that you want to commit into. Not that u don wan to join, but is either due to stupid reasons like LIMITED vacancies or like join as normal member, which I feel might as well dont join, since those seniors LOVE to use underhand methods to re-elect previous comm ppl to be the main comm again. Haiz, watever lar, I also donno what to do arz. Take one step at a time.

9th Aug marks a very important day.大切な日。
被爆地・長崎は９日、６３回目の原爆の日を迎えた。爆心地近くの平和公園（長崎市松山町）で、長崎原爆犠牲者慰霊平和祈念式典があった。
Thousands of people offered a minute's silence at 11:02 am (0202 GMT), the exact moment the city was hit by the world's second and last nuclear attack on August 9, 1945, killing more than 70,000 people.
Although it's 63 years ago, may the citizens of Hiroshima not get too affected by it, e.g Radiation that cause cancer.
On a side note... So far Japan has ONE bronze medal (I think is a woman Judo event..) No Gold or Silver medals yet... Haiz, nvm, it's only 2nd days..
