I am dreading this coming week..
let me try to list out everything i have due...
mon: chem tutorial 4,online physics assignment 5
wed: chem mid sem test which constitutes 40% of my final grade + english project due
thurs: chem prelab due + 7 straight hours of practical!!! :( no lunch again...
fri: geog project due + maths tutorial 7 + physics tutorial 4
its going to be an awful week.

But today was a happy day for me,despite the dreaded week approaching:) I met up with Lionel this morning at church for sunday mass..the songs were extra catchy and he kept me laughing with funny stories from his week..I'm really glad he's managed to find so much happiness in NS..we then headed to Farrer Road market for breakfast, where I watched in amazement as he had a plate of chicken rice AND a plate or char kuay tiao for breakfast.His appetite never ceases to surprise me..where does all that food go???and he actually went home for lunch right after breakfast....

I headed home for lunch with my own family, then had to spend the rest of the day mugging..it wasn't too bad,cos he came over to keep me company while he did his own "NS homework"..yep so basically I'm feeling happy today over simple time doing simple things..happy happy happy..hope I keep this up over the week..

Anyway, thanks for all the words of encouragement people!I think its really most probable that I'll be staying in Singapore..I doubt even utas will accept me now..I had a nice talk with amelia and michelle over lunch on fri..they were telling me how slack they were at NUS medicine!they finish sch at abt 12 everyday and they have time to watch tv,take afternoon naps,do recreational stuff...they actually felt bad cos they didn't feel like they were studying much..its a breeze now compared to sec sch and jc for them..I don't know what to think..somehow it feels kind of weird that they're so relaxed while I'm working harder than I've ever worked in my entire life..and I'm working hard at stuff that I'll probably never need to use ever again after my exams..thats sad...

I also met up with cindy and xinli on thurs..it was so great seeing them again:)haha we were taking a walking tour of all the food places at Jurong Point.They hadn't had the chance to eat any of their favourite foods since they've become prisoners of hall!haha qt funny..anyway,it was so wonderful catching up with them...I felt a lot more like my old self after that day..I realise I've changed a lot since uni started..I don't know how to describe the change exactly.

I've gotta keep thinking positive..God's making me do all this for a reason..I've just got to find out what..

deb & meiling: haha thanks:)I'm happy that I did what I did too...I thank others who gave me the courage to it..namely God,my classmates and friends like you:)
pips: yep everything happens for a reason..thanks:)haha you keep that in mind too.
passerby: erm who's this??
