Post Chalet
Thursday, April 29, 2010
The 3 days chalet at Pasir Ris was damn fun. I think this is mostly thanks to my group of uni friends whom I am able to communicate with at ease and do crazy things. One regret is that we should have booked the chalet for a longer period and not only 3D2N. Because the BBQ was during the 2nd day, we were unable to do much things such as go bowling, star gazing, play cards, and HTHT. The 3rd day we have to check out by 11am so it became a bit rush. If we were to have at least 4D3N then we can use the 3rd day to rest and talk and chill and slowly pack up our things. But all in all, I really truly enjoyed the few days. I feel that chalet is a good place to get to know a person really well. In those few days you will be staying together and each hour that passes means you know that person a bit more.
However, because it is a chalet, we slept quite late so we were quite shag and tired during the 3rd day. Next time I shall propose that we sleep before 2am so that we can do other stuff in the morning and not so tired.
I really hope there will be another chalet with them some time before the start of school around July. This time, I will be the one saying that we should have a 4D3N chalet and do the stuff that we did not get to do this time.

Exams are over for 2 weeks but because I am lazy, I have not updated this blog since March. Monday going for chalet with my university friends! Yeah!! Very excited because I think it will be very fun because they are all a bunch of easy going and fun loving friends! Hahaha. I have only been to chalet once for one night during secondary school days but because the people I went with were not very close therefore I did not really enjoy the stay. But this time I will be staying over for 2 nights and I think I will be enjoying my stay this time!
This summer I don't know what to do during holidays. I hope to be able to secure an internship but until now I have not found one that I like or accept me. Haiz.
Stress level up
Wednesday, March 17, 2010
The stress level is up! Hahaha. No kidding. My meow meow project is in deep shit. BUT I believe that I can handle it because I have a good friend in SMU who knows me well and will give me advices and comments. AND I have a friend in my team whom I know is able to handle things and I believe she is capable of all the stress. Haha. So while I busy myself with my internship interview, my piano exams, I will leave some of the problems encountered to my friend in the team. The other team mates are also my friend fyi but sometimes it is a kind of gut feel that tells you who to believe and trust in. Tomorrow is my internship interview. I shall try not to be nervous and cross my fingers in hope that I will be accepted. At night I have to keep practicing piano in order to pass my exam. BUT I know my friend in the team is also up to her neck with project work and stuff so after tomorrow, I shall be responsible again and take up half of the load so that she will not be too loaded.
As for the other game project, I am very lucky that my good friend is in my team so I entrust her with the report and strategy. In that team, there is another friend who is good in analyzing data so I hope he will do his very best also. As for me, well, I will wait until after next Tuesday to immerse myself back into THAT project.
I learnt a lesson. It is always good to be able to find another person who you are able to trust because when you don't understand, you will be able to ask her and vice versa. Also, when you feel like there is internal bleeding because you are unable to say something because you are afraid of spoiling the friendship in a group, it is always good to find someone you trust in and spill the beans.
Thank you. You know who you are and I appreciate it very much even though you may or may not read my blog.
Projects

Without knowing it, my 1 week holiday is over. Next week is back to school again and I have a module called Finishing Touch on Monday. Have to wear formal clothes during classes for the rest of the Monday for another 7 weeks. Had a CAT meeting yesterday with dawn, beilin and meibao. After squeezing our brain juice, we finally came out with some problems that we think is feasible. HAHAH. The idea was thought out while I am squatting. =D
Different people grouping together really will have different fireworks. I have done 2 projects before with beilin during the past 3 semester. This semester, I have 2 new people that I am first time project-ing with. New meaning have not done project but still know each other. Anyway, it is quite an ease and fun having project meeting with logical and funny people. On one hand, she thinks logically (like me) and on the other hand, she can take jokes and is easy to understand. Well, among all my current friends in university, only one other person fits the category. HAHA. Of course it is rather difficult to find people you can click with immediately but when it is found, you will really want to keep the friendship going on and on even though there may be bumps around.
Anyway, back to yesterday. After CAT project, at around 3 plus, dawn asked me to tcc to eat because there is UOB offer. After she went to meet someone and then came back, she realized that her UOB debit card do not have money and want to find a cash deposit ATM. The problem with UOB is that there is very little such ATMs around. So, we walk past tcc and she point and point and well, what to do, no card, no discount. So we walk to PS to see whether is there any UOB bank there. Surprise, surprise, there was none. I gave her a very 无奈 face which says "why do you even have a debit card without money and no bank, too bad". HAHA. She started to explain and explain and finally after going up to the 5th floor and walking right back down to the basement the second time, we decided to go for pastamania. She surprised me by whipping out a small menu of pastamania and said that she is a fan of pastamania. Eat, eat, eat. All the time during eating, she was talking about food. Those who read will know that she is a FOODMANIAC - likes to eat, likes good food, know a lot about food etc. Well at least the journey of finding food to going home was rather interesting and not awkward.
So that is that. End of yesterday.

Since it has been rather long since the last time I updated, I shall do 2 posts today.
I like to think of myself as being an optimistic person who is easy going and liked by people. But I understand that I am no such person. Sometimes I even wonder what and why am I doing. The emotions can fluctuate very quickly like a song. I don't know what others are thinking because I don't ask. I don't ask is because I think that if I am important to you then you will tell me. But then again, I know of people who because I don't ask then they don't say. So this chain effect sometimes lead me to think that the chemistry is depleting. I don't know why but one thing that I can be sure is that I am not very curious about many things. I just let things go right past me. I listen, I understand but the expressing part has always been a chore for me. Sometimes I also pity the people who are friends with me because I am seldom easily understood but I am someone who is easily cheered. Why this post? It is all because of a song. Haha. I am not emo-ing. Just evaluating on myself.
2010 CNY
2010 CNY passed very fast. I think the main reason for this is that I have many exams and projects in the week of the CNY. Hence, cannot really enjoy CNY during the few days. Although I did went to many of my relatives' houses to bai nian, I will still be thinking of the work that I have left. But this week is my one week break. I think people are quite contradicting. When they are busy, they want holidays. But when they have holidays, they will be thinking of what to do in the holidays. I am one of them. Although it is only a one week holiday, it still feels somewhat strange that today I need not go to school.
Yesterday was my last paper - Business Processes. After that, I went to the temple and went to 2 relative house before going to my university friend's home to play. During so many years of CNY, this is my 1st time going to a friend house. There were 8 of us there in a study room playing different kind of games. It was really fun. I hope that during this week there will be one day that we will be able to play games together again before the hectic school reopen again.
Oh yeah, I have eaten a lot and I mean really a lot of new year goodies. Wonder whether I am becoming fat hahaha.
A mod is killing me
Thursday, January 14, 2010
Well, this post is really close to the previous one that I have typed. Just one day and I am here to blog again. Why is that so? As per the title, I have one module that is really going to kill me sooner or later. But I hope I will survive and EXCEL in it, of course. The module have everything to do with EXCEL and MODELLING. Not the kind of modelling that you see in Project Runways or the fashion show. It is modelling about the problems so that that person can enter in what they want to know and get exactly what they want to know. This sounds quite fun but the professor that I have is a newcomer, or rather, first time teaching this module. He is a Korean. Hence, he has an accent when he speaks. In addition to that, sometimes when he speaks too fast or he is too excited, some of his mother tongue language will appear. So in the end, I don't understand what he is teaching and he doesn't explain well. Always goes into extra time but still unable to finish what he planned to teach. Never really tell us how do we get certain numbers and now I am still figuring out why that row of numbers will appear. One example of his accent: Light --> Bright.
Woohoo. I think I am so going to have to use all my braincells for this semester.
To fattanah (the only person who continues to read my blog for I dunno what reason) -- Thanks =DDD
