just stand up

i'm back after so long. somehow, i didn't feel the urge to blog about my life until now.

Now, when i am halfway through my Service Processes lesson.

And so, my past weeks have been quite monotonous, nothing special for me to exclaim, no shoutouts that i need to do. Just, perhaps, cooped up emotions, usual worrying which i wish i can be relieved of. Life is a misery sometimes, isn't it?

I've just finished my SP presentation. The 1st presentation after soooo long. It was easy to present and i didn't rehearse for it as this project was finalised really at the last minute. I stayed up till 5am to compile the report. And yet, we lost to the other team. They are admittedly better, in terms of content. oh well. what can i say. i hate to lose?

and argh yeah, the topic of class participation. the need to speak up. i still havent done it after 7 weeks. argh. somehow, whatever i want to say just seems weird to ask/mention at the point of time. never mind. week 8 will be a fresh start.

for now, i will just want to focus on clearing my mountain of work: projects, papers. and week 8 will be gone in a flash.


On a happier note, heard from cass not long ago that she has passed her driving test with 18 points. haha.. not chao geng enough.. hehehe... good job there and from now on, we can go car racing yeah!

oh yeah, and i was really thinking of africa for the great escape! but, we will all need to acquire medical knowledge first before embarking on the journey. if not, we will be as useless as a housefly. if not, perhaps backpacking the whole of china seems fun too. haha .. just random ideas..

oh well, i need sleep.........

i need to escape now

ah..blogspot is finally back to normal.

i've been procrastinating. and yes, this isnt strange to my friends who know me.

but yeah, i have a reason for doing so, for being a worrier by nature, thoughts just keep swimming in my head. preventing me from thinking properly and focusing on my studies. yuck. this sucks. i just hope that the friday exco meeting will be able to solve all problems, and there, i can stop worrying and live an easier and happier life ;)

ok. maybe i should just learn to take life with a pinch of salt. thinking too much makes me grumpier and this ain't going to help at all.

this sem, i really feel the drive to study, in a bid to pull up my cui gpa. i need a better one to get on to exchange mans!

but even before i study, i'm already cracking my brains to think of what to do to mark graduation and the end of my student life. something more memorable than a grad trip. some activity that i can recount together with my friends and be relieved that we've been there, done that and we won't have to experience anything more than that anymore! hmm.. and i had an idea, which i shall term it as 'The Great Escape' for now. Its the opportunity where me and a few close friends venture beyond our comfort zone, amass donations and do community work and visit the slums and see life while we backpack.

no. i'm not going for a luxurious US tour as this can be done in my later years. Surely my grad trip can be much more meaningful than this? haah

let me know if you are interested ;)
