Yay! My GEM mid term is over =) It was pretty okay; manageable, 50 MCQs in one hour.. Yes it's so ironic, the semester is ending and I just finished my MTT?

Anyways, cos it is on week 12, there's like so many topics (from lect 1-10!) and thus, I didn't finish studying like 2 chapters cos there wasn't enough time with so much crap on hand! But luckily, it turned out OK! =)

Okay, I am gg to kinda don't care about the projects already because I wanna focus on mugging for the FINALS which is in 2 weeks time or so...

Woah! Thanks I thought I'll be proven wrong that my stereotype thinking is wrong and not all of that pack are like that. But once again, they failed my expectations and as always, they are what they are thought to be. It seems that once that gene is tainted then, it is all hell break loose.

Like for goodness sake, you have a brain to think about constructive stuff not about how to make yourself uglier! You may think you like freaking hot and pretty but seriously, look at thay freaking dress sense of you??? I mean it's so eeeeeks!

Hi friends, before I continue with my post, I'll like to recommend this online shop to you: http://k-klothes.livejournal.com

Anyways, I am like super happy!! Cos I got my A in my Making Sense of Society mid term test!! Hope that I can achieve this grade in the finals too! It's almost the finals season thus, I have to concentrate but I can't help procrastinating... Spend 5 hours in the library yesterday but wasn't productive at all...

Hopefully, I'll do better this semester and be on Dean's list?? =)

I am currently in a dilemma - I don't know if I should apply for SEP???

Kylie is here to rant again...

Anyways, I am listening to this E-learning lecture that I was supposed to listen last week but as usual, I procrastinated... And that day on thursday, I listenen to 20 mins of it and went off to sleep....

But today what I want to complain about is.. the Taiwanese lecturer who is lecturing me on Real Estate Economics! (P.S.: this is the lecture that I am listening to right now)

So what about this Taiwanese lecturer...? First, his lecture is boring to start with, as it is already but but but his accent and his poor command of english makes me feel that the 1hr and 45mins lecture a torture to be in. His lecture slot is on friday (yes, the last day of the week) and it's like 9-11am... You can imagine how restless and torturing it is when you're like half awake... =\
Listening to him really drives me nuts!

Like why can't NUS employ lecturers that can speak properly and make the students suffer less??!!

And talking about poor command of english, I guess the all too familiar "Boomz girl" has totally shown how badly Singaporeans can speak! I really think it's quite unbelievable that a girl who is 19 can speak such crappy English. I mean there are many other Singaporeans who can't speak for nuts but think about it, she's the former Miss Singapore Universe and she was going to represent Singapore. With her standard of english, people around the world who don't know about Singapore will probably think that Singapore is some Cheena country! And this is contradicting Singapore's education policy with regards to making schools teach in English and making learning English a compulsory language learnt by students so that our future geneations will be effectively bilingual. Does Ris Low's case show that the Speak Good English Campaign is not effective at all?

Wells, I am not pinpointing that only Ris Low can't speak properly but I think with her appearance and all the big wooha about her poor command of English should we actually rethink and re-evaluate the ways in which our young are taught to speak?

Disclaimer: I am not saying that I can speak very well but at least I think I can speak properly, pronounce my words correctly most of the time, and I can express my thoughts rather clearly, you know you know? Haha!

So now, I am going back to the torture! =\

Today I had a good harvest! Look at all my Hello Kitty merchandise =)

Really love them very much!

I've been a fan of Hello Kitty since young, like when I was in kindergarten. That's so long ago, been a decade already and I still love the character =) I really think it's very cute. And over the years, I've spent so much on Hello Kitty! Today, all the merchandise cost me $330.

Where did all the time go?

It's already 14 October and like my friend said "I can smell Christmas"! Is it because the pace of life in Singapore is getting faster and faster; so fast that time just seem to slip away? Or is it because we grow older, we are given more and more responsibilities and time just slip away as we are kept busy with all the work? It just seems to me that when I was much younger, time seem to pass slower. I don't know if it's just psychological or it is really so.

Just now, I met up with my JC tutors, Ms Wong and Mr Hsu, for lunch. When I went to school to meet them, Mr Hsu introduced me to his current batch of Year 1 that he is teaching. He was being irritating and commented that I am old already in front of his students cos his students are only 17 and I am already 20 turning 21 real soon.

Looking back, TJ days seem so long ago when in actual fact, it wasn't that long ago. 2 years since I graduated and the boys in the class are already finishing army, woah! 2 years isn't that short but these 2 years seemed to be exceptionally short. 2 years and I went through quite a bit; fell, picked up myself, learn to walk all over again, experienced and learnt things that I never knew, grew up and matured.

There were ups and downs, happy and sad but they will all make me stronger.

Perspectives have changed and perhaps, what I wanted back when I was 17,18 have changed too. Life is dynamic and ever changing, quote and unquote my boss. Now I just want to concentrate on my studies and achieve the most that I can. Love myself and not be so obliging which leads to me being hard on myself.

Actually, I feel that I am happier now as compared to when I had someone around. I have more freedom, I don't have to put into consideration someone else's feelings and thoughts. I can do what I like best and whenever I want to. Being a studious girl, and knowing that I am putting in effort in every chapter of studies I am revising, every piece of assignment I am handing in, makes me happier.

Some things can just wait, don't they?
