One more paper to go. Yay! Can't wait for exam to be over, thou I really really want to re-sit the last half an hour of my maths this morning. I don't know what I was thinking. I read through every single example on my matrix lecture. I know the method and how it works. But I didn't use it. I didn't think of it. Why. WHY?
Sobs. No use crying over split milk. I just hope I can get a decent grade. Ok, I want a more than decent grade. Who doesn't.
Four days to chem, so four days to study. But tomorrow I need to wash laundry and clean my room as well as my house. And I need to catch up on my sleep as well. Hmmm.. will write a post on my maid #4 soon. Think maid #5 will come in about one week. Hope this #5 can work, can stay and can get along with my mum.
How come mums are so lor sor, and so nagging sometimes. Ok, the nag is probably reasonable cause the children don't listen sometimes. But need to be so lor sor meh? The same thing why must say so many times, get the point already lah. And the examples sometimes very exaggerating it's hard to believe that it actually happens. And it either happens to friends' children, grandchildren, relatives, friends, or neighbours' family and extended family. Or somebody whom I don't know and my mum also don't know but my great grandma might know back then. If it really happens then okay lah, feel a bit of sympathy, don't keep saying. If it didn't happen then don't curse other people. Not good.
Either that or my mum will ask 4 similar questions : "Do you know? Do you understand? I have to explain to you so you can understand. So you understand now? Must explain to you cause these are all lessons from life. You have to learn. So you get it?"
Is it just my mum? Will I grow to be like that in the future? Oh no..

Thursday, April 21, 2005I am mugging for my exam.
Haha, that sounds quite pathetic. But I really need self-discipline. Been playing about half of the time I'm supposed to mug.
Okay, less than half. I would like to believe that I am a good student. Hehe..

Thursday, April 14, 2005Practical Exam is over. I'm quite proud of myself for not panicking. But still, I regretted not thinking and acting fast. Especially during the last fifteen minutes of the exam. This exam gave me a different experience. I know I can do the lab given enough time. (I type the codes quite slowly cause I'm afraid of missing anything.. a missing or extra semicolon can cause disaster!!) So an hour and 45 mins is really not enough. Reading and understanding the question already took like 15 mins or more..
Anyway, my program.. you can't even call it half-done. But it's alright. It's over. Oh well.

Saturday, April 09, 2005Why am I NOT studying??!!! Urgh.
Somebody come knock my head and tell me to study please.
Okay, just kidding.
I don't really know what my studying habit is, or do I even have one. Hmmm.. this is despite studying for more than 10 years.
You see, I need music in my life. Whenever I'm in my room I'm always playing some music. And I study with music. But at times, the music becomes a distraction. On the other hand, I can't study when it's too quiet as well. Cos I'll fall asleep. Then I can't study when there're distractions. However, I'm also not productive when I'm in the library where all around me (360 degrees) there are people studying. So with or without distractions it's still the same.
BUT.. I would like to think that I'm not totally hopeless. That I have a study mode. I'm just not in that mode yet. I notice that sometimes when I'm really concentrating I can be totally immune to my surroundings. I would not notice my favourite songs playing. I would be aware when somebody talked to me but I would not know what he or she said.
Okay, so now I really need to be in my study mode. But how.
Aha, first paper in 13-day time, Programming Practical Exam on Apr 13th, that's 4 more days, or slightly more than 3 if you count the hours. Time to stock up on snacks. Oh, potato chips.. Hmmm, I'm craving for ice creams. Shall go buy soon.

Monday, April 04, 2005I was early for Chinese lecture this morning. Can you believe it? Ten minutes early for an 8 o'clock class. Wow.
Well, that's because my Dad sent me to school, hehe. But I was early before okay. Anyway, my Dad actually didn't have to be at work before 9. But he said he wanted to set off before 730 to beat the ERP. I'm not too sure if it's true or my Dad also wanted to send me on his way. But thank you Daddy :)
I would have to leave my house by 645 if I go to school on my own you see. So even though I don't really like to be that early (not that I like to be late, I just prefer to be right on time but you know how more unlikely that is) I still benefit, yay.
Oh, I suddenly had a headache yesterday, and I am still having it now, hope it goes away soon. I think it's the imbalance in the ear thing again. It's so irritating. Every once in a while (like once a year) I will experience this most most terrible headache which is always accompanied by stomachache and the urge to vomit. My doctor said it sometimes happens in people; some have it often than others, and there is no cure for it.
And then sometimes I will experience a very very bad stomahache such that I feel faint. It's something like cause the pain is too unbearable, the brain will just shut down. And I fainted before because of that. Weird.
