I had lots of fun in this class.. My most enjoyable module in University so far.. Because everyone is very funny and we always talk cock in class.. A guy standing beside me in the photo commented that he came to learn how to pick up girls in French.. Lol.. And if you are wondering, I took French only because I want to learn a new language.. Most of my classmates are year 1, but I feel like I am year 1 when I am with them.. A few of them actually still thought that I am year 1 after half the sem was gone.. Haha.. Too bad.. I just look young.. =P I was lucky to have Xuan Yi (Jolene as she calls herself in class) in my lecture group and Josephine in my tutorial group.. Xuan Yi is just so lovable in class, I think everyone in class likes having her around.. Josephine was my partner for both my oral tests.. She also adds laughter to the class.. I am still waiting for the lecturer to send us the email about the details for the collection of our final test.. I hope I won't score too badly compared to the class.. =X

This is my "cute" 15 year old sister trying to pose a forceful smile for me. Do we really look alike? Here's a photo for comparison. I look prettier right? She's just too "cute" (read = fat). By the way, that's her standard pose for all her narcissistic photos that I have seen so far.. Something she made with the lights of the car behind on the roof of the taxi. So sweet!! =D

Well, I can safely say that this is my most hardworking semester.. Of course, I am looking forward to better grades to reflect my extra efforts.. Though it's a bit late to start being "hardworking" only now.. But it's better than not starting at all.. =P
Have been thinking about what I want to do when I graduate.. Did not really get an answer.. I have been trying to keep my options open.. But with such grades, what can I do? A bit too late to regret.. But at least I did enjoy almost every bit of my university life (mostly hall life actually) so far.. I had a good start in 2006 and an exciting climax lasting from 2007 to 2008.. Now I am working on my happy ending to bring my university life to a beautiful closing in 2009..

I need to disappear from the surface of the world.. I am being haunted terribly.. I need some peace.. more peace actually.. I cannot sleep well.. Messages keep coming in at wrong timings.. Spoil my mood.. Ruin the day.. I did what I can already.. Quit bugging me.. Or I'll quit instead.. I am already having low morale.. Exams are coming! I have my life too! Why did I even stupidly took it up? Many regrets.. Wanna turn back time quite badly..

I just got back the results of my test last week.. And guess what? I have finally managed to achieve average marks for my core module! Nothing too good nor bad.. It's just 14/40.. It was said that majority have gotten 10-15.. I am quite amazed at my marks.. Firstly, I did not study as much for that module.. Secondly, I just copied molecules and reagents straight from the notes.. Thirdly, I did not know what I was writing and whether it was correct or not.. Lastly, I left one question blank.. For the questions that I have received marks from, I don't know why and which part of it is correct.. I had 8/10 for one of the questions! That's like almost correct! But my answer is far from that of the model answer that the lecturer gave though.. I guess I must be quite lucky to guess and get it correct.. Hooray for Sandra!! I am now in an ultra good mood even though I think I chui-ed the test that I sat for at 1pm just now.. Oh well.. I guess that's how I am.. Today is a happy day!! =)

Don't complain that I did not give my 100%.. I used to do that ok? It is just that the circumstances doesn't make me feel like doing so now only.. I am tired of putting in my 100% and see others not doing the same.. I used to be punctual, efficient, nice, attended all meeting.. blah blah blah.. That's the old Sandra.. Forget her.. It's hard to get the old me back.. You can try convincing me but prove it with visible results.. I feel that whatever that I am seeing now should not be even happening.. I am in this for the 2nd year.. I had given my all for my first.. There should not be any excuses that people cannot do the same in their first.. Everyone has tests, appointments, trainings, lessons, girlfriends or boyfriends.. Don't make yourselves sound so busy because everyone else is as busy!! Your tests, appointments, trainings, lessons, girlfriends and boyfriends are not anymore important than mine.. Why is it that I feel that I am the only being criticized/commented on for doing the same thing that everyone else is doing? I don't give a damn about being a role model.. I have outgrown it.. I have become smarter.. I see no point in being early if everyone else is always late.. I see no point in attending every meeting if the attendance is never full.. I see no point in attending the whole length of the meeting if people can leave early or come late due to trainings, other appointments or tests the next day.. I see no point in putting this at a higher priority if it is not even of priority to others.. I see no point in wasting my time in this shit.. Don't criticize my way of doing things if your ways of doing things is not right either.. I admit that I am not a role model, but I was a role model once.. I admit that my works may not be the best, but I did put in my best.. So shut the hell up.. =)
