Free day~! no lectures no tutorials no nothing. oh i've got the formal dinner later. looking all red and ugly from my burn. bah.
And nope i haven't gotten my laptop yet. blogging from the hall computer room.
The NUS modular system is killing me. it's insanely confusing and unclear. we are all contantly bound by the fear of screwing up. ME for one, almost did. or rather, thought i did. because there are so many restrictions and guidelines you have to adhere to. true that you are free to take a wide variety of subjects.... but under certain conditions... which could drive you mad if you did not read every single word of every single page of the website.
Wished it could be more clear.
Ahh but well i have reached the end of the spoon-feeding era. time to feed myself. DIY everything. i even have to clean my own hostel room now. (bra is very noble to help me clean the super dirty corners + blinds + the ceiling fan =D)
Feel like i'm suddenly thrust into the whirling world of do-everything-yourself-no-more-hand-holding. hence, the FITTEST WILL SURVIVE!!! *background plays loud grand music with trumpets.
I dunno why i still try to act funny here. i'm in a foul mood cos i thought i screwed up my modules. i even sent a frantic SOS email to my faculty help only to discover by myself that i'm actually safe. ya ok that perked me up a little.
But the fac probably thought: aww another poor misguided little freshie.
I'm supposed to be in a foul mood too because i'm burnt and i look fugly (wenyan's favourite word) and i don't feel well.
Talking about being burnt and not feeling well. many thanks to BRA who bought me the after-sun lotion. Many thanks to my 'date' ZHENBIN who bought me moisturizer and herbal tea. manymany thanks to MUM who made barley water and bought watermelon. many thanks to my precious neighbours especially PEARLINE and DESIREE for being so sweet. =D
All makes lousy times more bearable. =)
Hope that after some time when most things have settled down, i'll have more order in my life. i'm such an ORDERLY person. i simply need order in my life. i'm the sort of person who irritates my friends by asking "so what we doing after this? then after that leh? what you wanna eat after this?" all the time.
Happy-go-lucky-go-with-the-flow is not me. please tell me if you find me very difficult to get along with lol =P
