Tutorials and assignments that I dont know how to do..
Lectures that left me feeling lost..
I need more time.
Living never wore one out so much as the effort not to live. - Anais NinDear Blog,
Sorry for the neglect. I have been scammed. There is no such thing as time management. People are just under the illusion that time can be managed. How do you control something you cant even touch or see? Its just a big fat lie for people who are too free to appear like they are free BECAUSE they could control something as eluded as time. Even with plans and schedules, isnt it obvious that time is managing us?
Excuses, you may say. I have plenty of that where it came from...
Sorry Excuse #1
Sent to an island at Batam for YEP course (read: beach, sea breeze, jet ski!)
Tiniest Island Award: the island is the size of the Central Forum in NUS. 5 minutes to STROLL around the island.
Island of Worthy Mention: another island half the size of Tiniest Island which is accessible only during low tide.
Best Supporting Low Tide: never have I seen low tide so low that I could make my way to another island via a path which miraculously appeared.
Best Cinematography: saw the fireworks going off in Spore from the tiny island!
Best Imitation of Movie Scene: "I'm flying!!" got to sneak up to the top deck of the ferry on the way back to Spore and the strong winds and endless view of the horizon was way better than the lousy stuffy cabins down under. Only drawback? Raindrops can cause some serious damage when travelling at high speed.
Sorry Excuse #2
Interviews for YEP are almost over... have been rushing from Engin to Central Lib and back and forth for the past few days, replacing meals with snacks and sandwiches from the amazing vending machine and even forgetting to eat.
Most Memorable Interviewee:
*late for almost 15 min, her interview slot was officially over*
*strolls in*
*no apologies*
*pass us application form*
She: oh.. i haven fill finish
Us: *trying hard to be friendly* its ok.. (*me already pissed off*)
Me: have you been on YEP before?
She: *stare* no.
Me: so do you know what our project is about?
She: *hesitate* ya. whatever that was written on that IVLE annoucement.
I cant rememeber what went on after this point in time cause I was seriously doing all I can to not smash her face into the glass table.
But well... makes for an interesting story. only regret was that I was being too nice. should have whacked her.. wasted!
Sorry Excuse #3

Life isnt about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain.
We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.
but one lecturer decided to be different which led to new instructions: another lecturer decided that this was fun and wanted to add to the confusion (!) and told us: and to make things even more wonderfully complicated, the person we emailed to had no idea the lecturer was trying to have fun and told us to : and to add on to the delightful task of building our timetable, we discovered that: so.... WHY THE HELL ARE THEY CALLED DIFFERENT THINGS??? VERY FUN IZZIT!!!"What about 1A1B for 2155?"
"But that would affect 2134..."
"If 2134 is like that... then 2408 will clash.."
"okok.. so 2184 is confirm 7A7B?"
"wait wait... must check 2408 first..."
"but isnt 2155 the G7 or G8 one?"
"ya... but we have to put it as 7A7B.."
numbers!! too many numbers.... cant process!
tutorials and labs are seriously driving me nuts...
The ever efficient school told us that instruction for registration are as follows:
First week of school is almost ending... Time seems to pass by slowly and yet quickly.. (yes... I just came out of a philosophy class and everything makes sense to me without making sense..I didnt even know that module is a philo mod!!)
this post is so gibberish... well thats the state of my brain right now... I havent been able to focus on ANYTHING for the past 4 days now... I just feel so detached from myself... does that even make sense??
whatever.

Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb.
-Sir Winston Churchhill
and that's like 12 hours more of sleep than I had for the past 2 days combined. and i am freaking hungry. last ate at like 3pm. hardly ate anything proper since Wed. well done. my appepite has abandoned me. my stomach has accepted its fate. COME GLORIOUS FOOD. I have time to eat now.. yest after our float performance in that unearthly weather, angeline and I went under a huge shady tree and had a semi-conscious chat.. we have concluded that we lost weight from RAG (now I understand Jo and Vicki's insistence that I drink protein shake and pump iron..) and RAG has traumatised us so much that even the tree we were lying under reminded us of THE hand. the branches look like L-bars... yes.. we were losing it.. but despite everything... it has been a hell of a journey. rushing through the nights... hearing guys bitching at each other in hokkien. I am really starting to swear a lot more... need to stop hanging around the testosterone.. and thank goodness for the really really nice freshies!! oh ya.. did I mention? RAG IS OVER :) totally random note: USP people have really strange and complicated r/s issues.
