My timetable for the sem… Good thing is all my class starts from 11am onwards. Bad thing is my workload per day is five hours at least. Busy busy … as Lab and Tutorial is starting next week.

It’s the second semester of my life here in NUS. First sem was a let down totally. I really should be ashamed of myself. Can anyone tell me how to be 10 times better than what I get from my CAP? sigh… It’s really sucky when even in the first lecture of the semester I couldn’t get what on earth is the lecturer talking about.

Anyway, as everyone says, a picture is worth a thousand word, here’s some of my latest update in chronological order.

Chinatown
We went to chinatown in hope to catch a fireworks however we missed it by 1 minutes. Sick and on vegetarian, no good food for me eventhough there’s plenty of them there. Wet as it rained hard that few days and crowded cause of the celebration for the Chinese New Year.

Lecture Theatre 27
T his is the School of Computing, my first lecture of the sem CS1104. First lecture of the semester. Nothing gets in and I failed to register anything at all in my mind. Pretty sucky.

Assessment
Assessment, assessment and assessment…
Weightage and etc… Horrible powerpoint slide….

Lab Guidelines
Lab session is gona start all over again…

Photoshooting with Alan Kuo’s Interview
Went for an interview with Alan Kuo. Shot around 200+ shots and only 60+ can be used. He’s Xiao Hei’s son if you know who Xiao Hei is. See the common ‘hei’ness? Well, bumped into David Tao when I’m waiting at the Swissotel Lobby. Yup, it’s really David Tao. No kidding.

Lecture Theatre 11
Waited here for half an hour for nothing…. >.< “

Boring Friday Nite
Me, Sue n Mei Yoke. Yup, that’s how bored our life is that we need to webcam and audio chat even though we are just one level above / below each other…. We really ought to get a life man… Went to Fong Seng later that night for the second time and drank some Milo + Milo Powder drink called Dinosour. I wonder… Tea + Teabag = TRex?

I guess that pretty sum up my first week… Till then, stay tuned.

I’d Rather
Luther Vandross

I thought sometime alone
was what we really needed
you said this time would hurt more than it helps
but I couldn’t see that
I thought it was the end
of a beautiful story
and so I left the one I loved at home to be alone (alone)
and I tried to find
out if this one thing is true
that I’m nothing without you
I know better now
and I’ve had a change of heart

I’d rather have bad times with you, than good times with someone else
I’d rather be beside you in a storm, than safe and warm by myself
I’d rather have hard times together, than to have it easy apart
I’d rather have the one who holds my heart
whoo-oo-oo-oo yeah

And then I met someone
and thought she could replace you
we got a long just fine
we wasted time because she was not you
we had a lot of fun
though we knew we were faking
love was not impressed with our connection they were all lies, all lies
so I’m here cause I found this one thing is true
that I’m nothing without you
I know better now
and I’ve had a change of heart

I’d rather have bad times with you, than good times with someone else
I’d rather be beside you in a storm, than safe and warm by myself
I’d rather have hard times together, than to have it easy apart
I’d rather have the one who holds my heart
who holds my heart

I can’t blame you if you turn away from me, like I’ve done you,
I can only prove the things I say with time,
please be mine,

I’d rather have bad times with (please be mine) you,
than good times with someone else (I know)
I’d rather be beside you in a storm (anytime),
than safe and warm by myself (so sure baby)
I’d rather have hard times to gether,
than to have it easy apart
I’d rather have the one who holds my heart (my heart)

I’d rather have bad times with you (surely),
than good times with someone else (surely)
I’d rather be beside you in a storm (oh yeah),
than safe and warm by myself (all by myself)
I’d rather have hard times together,
than to have it easy apart (you know it)
I’d rather have the one who holds my heart

I’d rather have the one who holds my heart
I’d rather have the one who holds my heart
whoooo…..who holds my heart

Somewhere Out There

Somewhere out there beneath the pale moonlight
Someone’s thinking of me and loving me tonight

Somewhere out there someone’s saying a prayer
That we’ll find one another in that big somewhere out there

And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star

And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we’re sleeping underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there if love can see us through
Then we’ll be together somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true

And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star

And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we’re sleeping underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there if love can see us through
Then we’ll be together somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true

Holiday no more… School starts tomorrow… All the best to everyone and slack no more to me, myself and i….

Damnit… Someone took my Cadbury chocolate bar when I’m craving for chocolate. Fuck man. This is not the first time food theft is happening. I really wanna get a fridge as soon as possibble. Sick and tired of those sucker that take other people’s food without concern nor replacing them back. Urgh! I need chocolate now. Anyway, I’m back in PGP. My condition is still not good. I think I’m still sick. I don’t know why this flu lasted so long. At times I would feel drowsy and sleepy, then my nose will be all blocked and I still have some minor coughing here and there. I wonder how long does it take for me to recover.

Don’t know why but this time I really don’t feel like leaving my home. Took a long bus trip last night. Sue’s phone is gone just like that * poof * like what? in less than 5 minutes time. It’s pretty scary how certain human can go so low just to steal a phone. I mean we are all student. If you mistook it, just give it back. It’s not like we will take you to the police or what. We confronted him twice for the phone and he still denies it. Anyway, I feel bad cause I’m the one that suggested we take Alisan. It’s really a torturing trip cause knowing the phone is in the bus but you can do nothing about it. Anyway, can’t really do anything about it anymore. Just hopefully he knows what he did was wrong and not repeating the same mistake over again.

Finally I got all my 5 modules bidded. Hopefully my tutorial will go smooth then everything’s gona be just perfect. Well, how does this whole bidding stuff works uh. Every sem each of us are being given 1000 bid points divided into our 2 accounts - Programme Account and General Account with different proportion depending on which Faculty you are from. As there are limited vacancy available for each module, we gotta place bid points in order to get the module. As common sense can tell, hot modules mean high bidding points which might goes up to 800 points per module and vice-versa whereby the minimum bidding point is 1 point. There will be different round available for bidding of module. Some rounds are just for some specific modules and stuff like that. Pretty confusing uh? Good or bad news will be delivered to you via email after the bidding ended to tell whether u get the module or you got outbided. After you got your modules, you gotta rank for your tutorial slot. Slot will be given to you according to your rank. Anyway, it’s pretty messy if you are new. Thank god I got all the modules I want smoothly unlike last sem, where I was outbided in 3 out of 5 modules that I wanted.

Gona do EC1301 - Principles of Economics, CS1102Y - Data Structures and Algorithms, CS1104 - Computer Organisation, CS2301 - Business and Technical Communication and GEK1003 - Introduction to Political Science. It’s pretty heavy and more so I’ve gotta pull up my CAP, so I’m really worried of my studies. Sigh… Pray hard that everything’s gona be fine and that I wouldn’t slack anymore from Day1 onwards. No one is taking Introduction to Political Science with me. At first Sue wanted to take, but she got outbided. Hopefully tomorrow there will still be vacancy but I just checked and there isn’t anymore left. Sue, you gotta work out a back up plan. A friend of mine just told me that it’s a pretty dry topic, what a great start… >_<”

Gotta go to check out some fridges tomorrow. I’m really sick of my food being stolen. Sucks… Hopefully I can find some good bargain. My room is really a mess, I think I gotta clean it soon after they move their stuff out of my room. I really can’t stand the mess. Sigh… it’s really difficult to be a clean freak. Till then…

Today marks a new year 2006. Alot of things happened last year and the craziest of all would be me ended up in Singapore. I guess 2006 will be a very important year in my life. I’m turning 21 years old this year. Whatever I do after my birthday, legally, its under my obligation and not my parents’ anymore. I now own the every step I take next in my life. The funny thing is, the only feeling I could feel about this is Fear. I fear taking the wrong steps and i fear for the unknown in my life. Never had I have a new year greeted with fear. Usually it’s happiness and a great new start. But now, I’m feeling afraid and lost. So lost that I’m even worried of thinking about it.

Perhaps it’s normal for people to feel fear. Especially for me, someone that all along knows what I want for sure, all of the sudden, you don’t know what you want anymore, of course you will feel fear. Anyway, hope I will be better later. I guess being one of the few earlier one to turn 21 years old aint something I can handle very well. Seems like there are alot of responsibility that I have to take care of. Not that I’m someone irresponsible before, but still…

It’s funny that I don’t have any new year resolution this year. Perhaps I was too sick back few days that I didn’t really thought about it. Or maybe I know I won’t came to fullfil it, hence there isn’t a need to have one. Anyway, Happy New Year to everyone. Hope that it’s gona be a great year ahead. All the best.
