The 2nd week is coming to an end...

It's the second week of the semester already. Gosh but I'm still kinda stuck in the honeymoon mood. Shit, this is bad. Somebody help me! I know I should start mugging already, or at least read my textbook after every lecture.. I'm really trying very hard to do that already! But the textbooks are really boring man. I will take hours or even days to finish reading one chapter. =( I dunno why but I'm already feeling busy! (that explains why I haven't been updating this poor blog) I can't imagine what it's gonna be like when tutorials start next week. Yikes. And I think my brain is really rusty after idling for 8months. Boo Hoo.

Ok I've given up hope on hall already. So now I'm applying for PGP for my hostel waiting list. I really hope I'll get it! Then it'll just mark the end of my 3-hour travelling time and I'll be a happy girl =D PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE gimme PGP! Sigh if only Alicia told me earlier that she might be able to pull me in, I would have put Sheares as my first choice! But on the other hand, the keyword is MIGHT and Sheares might just pull my CAP score down to a bottomless pit. So maybe PGP is a better choice!

Alright it's 1am and I have not finished my theory homework and there's piano tmr! I shall update over the weekend about the exciting (or maybe not so exciting) things that I've done.

Good night!

School is starting! =(

Now that O-week is over (it's quite boring actually), school is gonna start officially! Gosh this marks the end of my 8-month long holiday=( I'll miss going out and slacking and my TV!

Bidding is scary, I tell you. Like stock market, you have to closely monitor the next minimum bid and number of bidders. Poor year 1s like us with only 350points in our General Account have to compete with spoil-market-seniors who use >1000 points to bid for some GEM, Breadth or SS Module. So we are only left with those really unpopular and shitty ones which eventually become very popular as well since all the year 1s will be bidding for them. It's a really tiring process.

I'm so glad NUS Bizad implemented the new system where we have 4 pre-allocated modules in both semesters in Year1 and all we need to do is to bid for another module. Gosh imagine bidding for all 5modules! I'll just faint or even die.

But but there's a downside to this system. Everything's pre-allocated so I have a bloody 5-day week time table!!!!!! And it's gonna be so troublesome to swap tutorials. 8am tutorial on Wed. Yucks. Let's not talk about it anymore.

MNO, Financial Accounting, Principles of Marketing, Operations Management and Intro to E-commerce. Hmm. Hectic life says hi.

But I'm quite thankful that Odin will be in the same class. =D
