Apres une semaine..


Some weekends can just be.. that.
  • I love Wednesdays simply because of the lectures (cognitive and personality). Great lecturers we have. Personality's fun, can't believe the lecturer claimed himself not to be humourous when he could do unique extraordinary things that lighten up the atmosphere; like throwing his stuffed toy to the audience and whoever caught it had to answer questions (like filling in the blanks from his lecture notes) and randomly picking 5 names from the lecture group to do some personality ranking demonstration. We all freaked out, in a good way, lol.

  • Met up with bala, lina & aishah on Wednesday. Was awesome meet-up, it was like taking a walk back to the memory lane because we were talking about all the things that happened in secondary school! Crushes, how some of them really made us swoon (geez), who's with who, charming-looking teachers (Mr R & Mr S!), the bi-atches of the school, hilarious antics (of Mr G & Mrs K), how we always slacked off during Lit class, awesome council days, and the many high school drama (and pranks) you can imagine! Nothing can really beat secondary school adventures. Where days were just filled with all the innocent fun and the carefree days, oh how I miss.

  • I love that Chewy Juniors have $1/purchase discount exclusively for students! But aishah & I learnt that you can never look pretty when you eat Chewy Juniors. One big bite and next thing you know you have cream all over your mouth.

  • Mdm Francesca has been pretty cool lately. Not only does she let us off ON TIME on most days (which she never did last semester), she lends her french DVDs to the french 4 cohort, which is just so awesome!

  • Nuurun & I were so high on Friday night, we don't even need alcohol for that. Like moving to the beat of Mediterranean songs, laughing at Amey's Einstein-inspired hairdo (lol) and chillin' out with them + adit & aalok. Chillax session to the maxxx.

  • I've never come across really cool, good group page in Facebook until recently. It's called 'Overheard at NUS', really awesome group where students share interesting/bimbotic/funny quotes and shenanigans in lectures and around campus (especially in toilets with people talking so loudly to be overheard). And bulk of them contain quotations by lecturers, interesting :) Some excerpts:

    Back when I was in first year in uni, I took Chinese Level 1. Our composition test was coming up and I emailed the teacher asking if the characters from lessons one to four will be tested. She replied (and I quote): Dear If you enjoiy to write a good Comp so characters very impotent too. Lao shi

    Lecturer shared this during a journalism class. her editor told her this when she was still a junior reporter: "Don't ever assume. because that will make and ASS out of U and ME.

    A certain LS lecuturer: (Referring to the use of anabolic steroids) "Women develop more manly characteristics when they over-use steriods. (points to picture) Smaller breasts, more muscular. This woman is not my type. Even viagra also cannot help me." *pause* "I am still strong ah."

    2 students walking around AS2 looking frantic, guy comes over
    guy: hello do u know where is the biolab???
    me: there's no biolab here.. this is arts..
    guy: *shows me paper* it says it's at S2 what!
    me: ya but this is AS2........
    guy walks away and tells his girl friend "i feel damn dumb now"



  • Met up with dearest qeen for catch-up at Lot One. We made sure the whole k-pop craze has gone, at least, after Shinee has left. The last thing we want on top of the Sunday crowd at Lot One is a mob. One of the randomest things we talked about today is James Marsden in Enchanted, LOL.

  • I love how the moon appear to be so close to us nowadays. So bright and huge :) I love looking at the nightsky, the moon and the stars. Reminds me of how tiny I am right here.

Artichoke

HAHA! Si tu le dis : you know what archuleta sounds like Si tu le dis : it sounds like artichokes sakinah : what! sakinah : HAHA sakinah : YEAH! sakinah : the french vegetable! Si tu le dis : thus, vegetables. As a matter of fact, I did taste artichoke, and it's pretty good. Very delicious vegetable indeed, right Alvin? HAHAHAH!

Back to basics

Once again the heavy downpour. Certainly the rhythmic sound of the rain, slapping against the floor, against the windows, have conjured images in our heads of the pleasant idea of sleeping, or reading with hot cocoa (but of course this wouldn't be possible due to fasting), or just snuggling up in bed. How nice. But here I am almost dressed and ready for school. I don't know why, but it has been quite some time since I felt like I've been in school, like proper school. Perhaps it's the three days mc I've got. But now, I feel like I'm energized despite fasting, all set and ready for school. The scent of cooking porridge and spaghetti made me all excited to get through 2 lectures, one meeting and a bus ride home back welcomed by the sumptuous breaking fast meal although I'd only be back by eight-ish. Today shall be the first in a long time I'd make an appearance in French class. It's been more than a week. Wish me luck that my temperature won't rise...

Coincidence helps you in some way

There's this guy who happens to be in the same stats and developmental psych tutorial as me, and we knew each other through those classes. So after our class yesterday, we happened to board the same bus, happened to go to the same place, and happened to need to deposit money as well. I brought half of my wad of notes from money I collected from Hari Raya and the money I received from tuition too. Anyway, thankfully for the guy, he told me that the machine does not accept 5-dollar, and 2-dollar notes and MAJORITY of the thick wad of notes I brought were. Can you imagine how stupid I would look if I were to put the whole wad of notes there and they would all be rejected? And I had FORGOTTEN about it, so dumb please. You know, families should give you $10 notes instead of $2s (HAHA). So geez, I only managed to bank in abit only. After everything, the guy had to go for his taekwondo classes and I'm meeting Qeen, AND after spoken about exams, exchange programmes, past schools, bad ...
