I promise this will be a long entry. Coz I am in a super good mood!!
Mainly comes from the fact that I have finally cleared 2 papers. And my last paper is exactly 2 weeks later and it is the easiest unit out of what the university is offering.
So today is gonna be a slack day for me before I continue my revision tomorrow.
First I shall be walking through how I spent my last few days. Life has never been interesting since I started my revision. Who will think that exams are fun??! Think the most interesting day would be last thursday as I went to visit Guan Yin Ma and had a short glance at Bugis. It's been don't know how long since I played any mahjong, did any shopping or simply engaged in anything fun. If this continues I will be becoming obsolete very soon.
2 days before my very first paper was intensive practicing of past year exam papers and memorising of theory. But all the theories that I memorised never come out. And I was still forcing those into my brain without any understanding of what those were talking about. Waste of my time and brain cells. I was in total panic and distraught the night before both my papers. My Maths paper was still ok. At least I could still braced myself up but only kept whining how scared I was like 3 hours before the start of the paper.
The experience from the OT paper was horrible. I had the feeling that I don't know anything no matter how much I studied. Although I kept lookiong at the same notes over and over again, my mind just went into blank when I tried to recall what I have prepared. I was so depressed that I cried uncontrollably at MacDonald's at 3 plus am. No one around me so nobody saw me crying. Not so paiseh. Went back at 5am, wanting to sleep for 3 hours before I had to wake up and go through the terrible ordeal. Can't sleep despite the fact that I only had 4 hour of sleep the day before. Kept tossing and turning on my bed and I was so stressed up that I couldn't sleep even though I was so worn out physically and mentally. I finally fell asleep at 6am. But dear daddy had to come into my room to close the windows because of the rain, And I woke up from the slightest sound from the turning of the door knob. And I lost the momentum of falling back to sleep again. So I only slept for half an hour.
Dear came over to send me for the paper. He is so sweet and I am so evil to ask him to take MC just to send me there. Coz I hate waking up early and having to travel so far and having to squeeze onto the train with so many people. So in the end he claimed off. And I was busy flipping the notes during the jam at TPE. But I ws so so so tired that I could not not take it anymore and I requested to sleep in the car while the vehicle was stuck in the midst of the stupid jam. Didn't really sleep too, only close my eyes for a rest. When I reached Expo, I literally could feel my heart thumping in my mouth. And all those nervous symptoms started forming like wanting to puke, wanting to pang sai and having cold hands and feet. So I went to the toilet for the third time since morning, and shun bian vomitted out my breakfast so that I felt better. When I came out of the toilet and saw people slowly streaming into the exam hall, I helplessly looked at dear dear, who was busy consoling and encouraging me, and I mumbled "I very scared" before I started wailing. He also gan geong and did all funny faces to make me laugh. That managed to stop my tears for 5 seconds, but when he saw it was time for me to go in, he signalled that I should go, and there I was crying again. the sobbing couldn't stop. So I sobbed my way to my seat. Totally ignoring stares and glares from other people. As the paper starts, I forgot about all the crying and did my paper. Overall it was ok, except that I could not really finished my last eassy, and just did a brief summary. At least I still have things to write la, but I am not sure if I was answering the questions or just writing everything I know on the topic. The latter can't really score though.
*prays hard*Dear came over and collect me at the end of the 3 hours. But he was so pitiful that he had to spend the 3 hours at a cafe at Eastpoint reading newspaper. And I tell you, Expo's parking fee is super expensive. He just went in to drop me and then in again to pick me up. And one entry for like 10 mins cost $2 plus. So enter twice meant double of that. They might as well go and rob the bank!!
We went Orchard to help him shop for his attire for his brother's coming wedding And we have decided to settle for Pizza Hut for lunch since he has been wanting to eat that with me for very long and for once I agreed. Coz I didn't really like Pizza hut's pizzas except for their drumlets. After getting the necessary stuffs, we went over to PS and I remembered Pizza Hut was at Basement 1. When we reached the portion where the VCDs shop and toast bread shop were located, they were taken over by Carrefour, renovating, but it was stated on the board the business as for the list of shops, and Pizza hut was in the list. So the 2 of us went round and round the whole basement one but just couldn't find it. So in the end we decided to ask around only to discover that Pizza hut is under reno too. What the hell. It was obviously stated on the board that it was business as usual. How could they make such an irresponsible mistake. Well, the boy was utterly disappointed and I was too lazy and hungry to go to another place for the stupid Hut and asked him to settle for Pastamania.
After filling our stomachs we walked around PS and I decided to dragged dear dear to Queentown/way (always getting mixed up) shopping centre to get my travel bag. Like those used for 2 days short trip or chalet. I actually had one red Adidas bag which I like alot. But the wearing out effects are surfacing. Had the bag for a few years already and the leather at the handle is peeling due to frequent exposure to the sun (Coz I didn't store it properly la). So dear dear said I should get the bag replaced and he will pay for my new bag!!! Whoo hoo!!! So I remembered his deal for me and happily hopped there for the bag. Was deciding between the Nike or Puma bag and after a very very long comtamplating that got him angry, I finally set on the Puma bag coz I like the colour and design better, although it was quite an old model as compared the the new arrival for the Nike bag. And he paid for it. Yippee......
After that we went Clementi to get some games and headed for his house where he played his beloved Dynasty Warrior game while I took a rest. Strange enough, I fell asleep immediately. When I had limited time set aside for sleep I just can't sleep, When I can afford to sleep or not to, I can knock out so fast. My biological system is just so fan jian. And, I asked him to wake me up for the Channel 8 9pm show. When he called for me, I pulled myself awake promptly, unlike the usual me that lazing on the bed when I was supposed to get out of bed for revision. The power of TV... Ahaa.. After the show ended he continued his game and I surfed the net. It was then that I realised that I haven been touching the computer for so many days. And I really cannot understand why so many guys are hooked up with the stupid Dynasty Warrior game, similar to the romance of the three Kingdom. What is so fun about running aound the grassland with a spear or sword or any ancient weapon and slashing enemies repeatedly? It is always just slashing of enemies. I don't see where the fun comes from. But anyway, he likes it so much. Same like my brother. -_-"'
And I am so impressed by myself for being able to survive till the night with just the 5 hour sleep I had for the past 2 days.
Xiuhui called me in the evening asking how I did for my papers. Gosh I haven been seeing her for so many weeks. And she told me that the girls are starting to forget how I look already. Because I have been isolating and couped myself up for study. And she asked if I am joining them for clubbing at clark quay tonight. I really can't decide. I feel like seeing them coz I haven met up with them for so long but today is Wednesday... Aww... This is such a tough choice. But it is confirmed that I will be out tonight. Just a matter of where. And from yesterday I have been thinking of what to wear. Seems like my wardrobe is lack of variety. But come to think of it, since when is it sufficient? He is gonna yell at me if he sees this. Haha. And by the way, it was elle who jio-ed us. Noelle Tan can? It is such a rare sight. And that adorable girl actually asked me about tonight one month back. She seems so enthu and excited about tonight and kept jio-ing everyone. I dunno what the occasion is about. Neither does Hui. And the only reason I can think of is her birthday. But Hui replied sarcastically that who celebrates birthday like 3 weeks before the actual date? True but that's the most viable answer I can give. ...
Anyway, her birthday is coming means mine too!! However, I have always maintain a love-hate relationship with birthdays ever since I celebrated my 20th birthday. I wonder what the boy is planning for to celebrate my birthday and our 1st yr anni. Big surprise in store.
And I am so scared of JB now. Saw it on the new one week plus back the a woman with her boyfriend had her bag snatched away by a motorcyclist while walking on the pavement at JB. They reported to the local police and guess what the police officer said? He told them such incidents are very common!!! Oh my god!!! Firstly, how can a police who is supposed to maintain law and order in the country make such a remark? And secondly, this goes out to show that the place is unsafe and it also reflects the incompetency and inefficency of the police there. What is the police over there doing with regards to so many robbing cases? Did they come up with any crime preventing strategies or doing anything to hunt down those people? They are still out there looking for more innocent victims of crime. I think the officer ought to be feeling so ashamed of himself and the police force but then, obviously, I doubt he is since he had the cheek to make such comment. And aside from losing important documents and valuables that were inside the bag, the poor girl fell and injured her hip and she can barely walk properly now. Not forgetting the medical expenses incurred. So scary!! Mummy has been warning me about how dangerous JB is but I am always reluctant to heed her advice. Then while I was in the car on my way to Expo heard again over the news that one Singaporean guy got slashed while being robbed at JB. He was just there to shop for groceries. Apart from these real stories, there are also common stories like drug addict claiming that he has Aids and using the syringe that contains his blood to ask for 10 or 20 bucks if not he will just poke you with the needle. Dear said it happened to him before and he just LL give the person 20 ringgit. Because of these frightful events that happen so frequently, I am going to bar myself from going there. Bye bye to City Sq and Holiday Plaza and Da Ma Hua Yuan. I believe that not only me but many other Singaporeans will think twice about going JB after hearing all these. And Singaporeans usually spend alot at JB so without these expenditure from us it's gonna affect the retailers there. Too bad, blame it on those robbers and drug addicts and incompetency of your government. I am so glad that I am a Singaporean who lives in a place with peace and order.
Ok I have spent so long typing this entry. Gonna bump around in the house till TV program starts... Bye!
