凯凯不在的日子 Day 131+105+70

10 weeks since I last saw xk. Time kinda flies.

I AM FINALLY DONE WITH EXAMSSSS!!! =DDDDDD

I feel very inclined to blog properly, but not before I have a bit of fun first xD

Rawr to microbio paper. I regret not checking my past year exam answers with others first. Either way, it's overrrrr!

凯凯不在的日子 Day 131+105+66

Haven't put up pictures lately, so here's one at science centre! BMS outing to bodyworlds exhibition xD


I don't what is this but basically I'm taking a reflection of myself and jo was behind the glass. Who looks freakier, she or I?

This is very very very odd of me to blog so often. but I just had to.

1) I had a bilingual anatomy paper. I nearly laughed when I flipped over the page and the 3rd MCQ question was in chinese.

So many qsns came from past year paper I'm glad I did. I just regretted not checking answers with the others so I wasn't sure if I'm correct actually.

70 marks of open-ended when I was hoping for short questions, 10-mark essay questions faced me. Or rather I faced them. I don't know how many times obscenities repeated themselves in my brain. The good thing is, all the questions didn't look too alien. The bad thing, once again, I'm not sure if I answered them correctly.

2) I feel different today.

I couldn't sleep last night. So when I forced myself up at 6am I was so drained but am rather awake [been having insomnia you see]. Sigh. Groggily I stared at my lecture notes and all of a sudden there was a sound and something darted across the floor.

Rawr. Beetles in my hall are unacceptable!

Felt really claustrophobic at that moment but I decided to ignore this and continued studying. That is, until it started flying all around my room.

The beetles in my house aren't even as active! NTU has weird insects man, with flies of a range of agility [compare the quick-as-lightning SAC flies and the lazy can 9 flies], bee-like insects when I was in hall 15, green flies, lady bugs.. probably because we're surrounded by forests. Greenery and PIE seperate us from the rest of Singapore.

I'm digressing. Back to this morning.

Attempted it get it out of my room by switching off all the lights. Just to realize that beetles are not as light-philic as the hall 15 bees and moths. It even hit me once. How dare it. Grrrr.

And I prayed and prayed that I would be able to find it and have it fly out of the room.

My prayers were answered in quite an interesting way. After a while I found the beetle taking its morning nap in my shoe. With a plastic bag, I placed the shoe and the beetle outside my room and slammed the door shut.

So not only did I manage to find it, but I was given the courage to throw it outside the room.

And then I prayed real hard for my paper. And xk's flight among other things. Before the paper Corina (who is jo's friend) prayed for us. Somehow this time it felt different from last time. It felt kinda stronger. And I found the paper relatively okay [compared to physio and TCM]. And xk had a great flight.

I feel really different. Like I'm closer to two things. One is spiritual, and the other is personal.

Gut feeling is telling me today, really strongly, that I should just let go of something that isn't doing me much good, something that I might not even be totally committed to doing in the long run.

I don't know.

凯凯不在的日子 Day 131+105+65

Just a short, short, short post before I get beheaded for anatomy tomorrow.

HELP HOW DO YOU REMEMBER ALL THE BODY PARTS??!?!?!

it took me three semesters to realize I really can't study properly at home (most of the time). Even though

1) I spent less money - home cooked food!
2) Better sanitary environment - own toilet
3) More comfortable - a tad too comfortable
4) Family's here with me
5) I don't really have to, erm, wear a bra around the house

studying in school is so much better. At least I'll sit down a few hours at one go to get things into my head. Can't achieve the same thing at home esp when mum has been watching Beethoven Virus (korean drama!) and all their really attractive classical music makes me run out of my room every few minutes. And make me walk back to my room all emo because it once again emphasizes how much I miss doing music.

-------------------------------------

Yay xk's having his bht dinner tmr! The only sad thing is I can't be there =( But this also means I'm now so much closer to seeing him return than ever before =DDDDDDDD

-------------------------------------

9 hours to next paper, 5 days to freedom.

凯凯不在的日子 Day 131+105+52

Blogging from Library 2!

Just finished my BMS205 paper [aka 中药学] and well the feeling is surreal. I don't really know what to feel about it actually. Not that I did well, but I'm getting so used to doing badly for papers it almost feels like this one wasn't as bad.

Is it? Or is it not? Many people found the paper okay (in short, easy enough) while some people found it really difficult. I've got nothing to say, because.. this was really a test of how-much-chinese-you-can-memorize in a month. Even if one can remember right now, half an hour later it'll disappear from the brain. It's that scary. It doesn't stay unless it bears some meaning that your brain can decipher.

It's not even chinese that is of daily usage. It's herbs and their uses which come in your four-word idiom phrasing.

It takes practice, practice and practice to remember them. I wished I did more practices.

If they gave me a D for this paper, so be it. Although I seriously feel this is one of my better tcm papers yet. At least the open-ended qsns looked like something I can answer [unlike my previous ones where I can leave 10-mark questions blank].

Still, what happened to salvaging my grades?

=(

Never in my life that I ever had to worry about my grades. Until now.

-------------------------------------------

Physio next paper. In six days' time. I have to start from scratch because I've never even opened my textbook before. I really really hope that my brain is absorbant enough to place everything in. Hmm. Is a full MCQ paper a blessing or a curse?

-------------------------------------------

To lighten up the seeming sombre mood (actually I'm not really that sad. can you read my pok-pok-pok-poker face?), something funny happened yesterday!

Was having lunch with samuel at can 2 and then went nanyang supermarket to buy pad (I've ceased to care about any embarrassment buying sanitary products when guys are around). He held the plastic bag for me thereafter as we walked to the bus stop. Bus A appeared out of nowhere and upon his persuasion I ran for the bus. He walked back to hall.

No prizes for guessing what happened then. From the bus I saw him cross the road with the plastic bag and I was like "oh shiiiit". A call came that exclaimed, "your pad is with me!!"

hahahahahahaha I laughed all the way back to hall.

----------------------------------

On monday [oh my that was 4 days ago] went xk's place to mug since I was rather distracted at home as usual. The moment flipped open my notes his mum came in with hot milo with egg tart to get started. Then came wife's cake, some taiwan pie (that I didn't eat), bunch of grapes, porridge and another cup of milo with honey. I think I ate more, can't remember. Hmmm she is spoiling me! But it feels real good =)

Looking at his room made me think of the countless memories I had here. Even though his essence is diminishing due to his absence (eh that rhymes!), still.. he's coming back soon! heehee.

----------------------------------

Really wanna post some pictures of what has been happening the past few months but.. I'm not at my laptop now. Nearly turned into a caveman. I came back hall on tuesday, today is friday and I haven't even opened up my laptop casing.

About time I return to my physio and to actually find out what is being tested for the exam.

Till my next post, good luck everyone!=D

P.S. Was reading summation and here! - NTU sports club publications. Am really impressed with the latter. My cainii level up le!

凯凯不在的日子 Day 131+105+43

I've lost count because I've not blogged for more than a month =X

It's nearly impossible to put down everything that has happened for the past one month. Another hell of a month, almost never a day of total peace.

Not that I hated it. Or else, life would be so boring.

I promised myself to blog after I'm done with the presentation report, and well I was done a few hours ago! 3 days before deadline!=D But it's 3.16am now and I've to wake up at 7am (Terri pls remind me that macs breakfast is VERY tempting) for lessons.

Everybody has less/no lessons this week. I still have the full monty. (Wait that sounds a bit wrong but obviously I meant EVERYTHING)

And I've written so much chinese these days, I'm forgetting how to write alphabets.

Will update more.. when I feel like it

凯凯’s birthday today!

Just had a chat with my sis online and I burst out laughing because of this. (Totally copied even with typo errors) 

ncSue((:  ナンチン.スー says:
hahaha doing the toilet now right?
haha
i'l lcome back when it's done =p
Yuen Ching says:
..........................................................
it was damn noisy today
ncSue((:  ナンチン.スー says:
of course man.
dig up the floor right
Yuen Ching says:
now the floor very low
ncSue((:  ナンチン.スー says:
lol
but cannot use the toilet yet right?
Yuen Ching says:
...................the toliet bow is not even there
HAHAHAHA

Basically [insert grandfather story here] thus we had to replace the floor and the toilet bowl of the master bedroom toilet. Hence the temporary absence of the toilet bowl.

Zomg I have this horrendously long list of things to do. But here I am blogging =p

Anyway, since today is 7th of October, 20 years after xk was born, well..

GO WISH HIM HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEH =DDDDDD hahahaha. (if anyone reads this blog at all)

凯凯不在的日子 Day 131+105+2

My title is getting longer.

Anyway, I'm back from my 2nd Perth trip! It was so packed (and fun of course) that I didn't get to study at all until I boarded the plane back to SG. Oh, and I slept most of the time because I was so tired.

Screwed for paper tmr =(

I’m blogging from microbio lecture!

Last night was a good wake-up call. I feel so much lighter.

Now it is up to me to actually take action upon the advice.

Even it if doesn’t work, I am going to try.

And because I haven’t uploaded photos in a while, I shall upload ONE photo! hahaha.
