Tax quiz was a goner today. It's more of a test of luck for all of us perhaps? Ah wells.

Anyway, other than tax quiz, another burden has just been lightened too and i'm really so glad. Hopefully all those werent merely consolation words. And i dun think they were, haha. It feels really good to have ppl who appreciate what i do and who i am, despite so many other outstanding ppl around in uni.

Humility, and not merely capability, is the way to go. Thats so right. And i shall keep that always in mind. =)

Hmmm, i wanted to post a no. of photos up today from a long past event. Though past quite long ago, they're nice n exclusive photos so i wanted to share them here, and in turn, make this space here into more of xiaowei's style, hahaha, okie not very possible though. But anyway, i've no time! So, nxt time perhaps.

No time cos i've acc proj report, company law assignment, tax tutorial, and acc revision and tutorial to do! Omg how not to fret right. Alrights, off for now.

*xiaowei girlie, your beloved proj mates in sg sprung on an idea for a zoooooo outing when u're back! (well, not with mormor's approval yet, but. haha) anyway, u and annkang can cut your bday cake tgr with ah meng (or his descendants), hahaha. will reply your email soon! =)

Alright i finally finished listening to my online company law lec! Personally, i think online lecs are good cos they save lots of time, although they need lots of self-discipline. haha. But its too bad that my course do not have online lecs every wk.

Anyway, I'm going to be so so so swarmed in work this wk! Its supposed to be recess wk, but there seems no break at all. Projects, assignments, tutorials all awaiting! Oooookay, so i managed to watch alot more hrs of tv over the wkend, haha. Hmmm, probably why i need to catch up alot more during the wkdays!

Alright alright, off to sleep for now cos i still gotta make a trip down to the driving centre tmr!

So wonderful that my sch wk is over. I know, everyone looks at me in awe that my sch wk practically ends after Wed. And i know i'm lucky this sem. So dreading nxt sem's timetable. But anyway, i'm having an official 3-day wk this wk okay. My lec on friday is cancelled, so i'm not skipping any lessons okay. Haha.

Anyway, it's been a mind-boggling fortnight when i'm back in ntu land. Lots of ups and downs occuring and i've had lots of decisions and choices to make. I feel like i'm constantly walking up and down the scale, trying to find out where the weight really lies, causing my mind to dart back and forth. And this is, of cos, very very emotionally tiring.

Thanks dear sha, for all the enlightenment talk.
Thanks my new hall CPs, for being such kind and understanding souls.
Thanks my new fin sec, for offering to help.
Now, i've 1 more person left to talk to, before i rest my case.
Someone whom i hope i wont be disappointing that much.

Okay really tired and having sinus currently. Its time to hit the sack.
My wkend and recess wk beckon. =)

1 more wk before recess wk.
gosh how fast right, half the sem is almost gone!

anyway, i had a great wkend. =)
loads of time at home with my family.
and i even had time to meet jas, and had a yummy cartel lunch of pasta and crepe with ice-cream.
haha, haven eaten good food for so long!
and i bought shoes again, haha, a true blue shoe fanatic i am.
yay i have new pumps again!
pity i didnt bring my cable to hall, so i cant upload any pics now.

i planned my wk ahead with more meetups!
gonna see sf after so long, and she'll finally get to visit my room tmr!
i'll also have a yummylicious dinner with claire in the later part of the wk!
yay cant wait.
simply adore good food with great company. =)

Met up with QJ in the afternoon for a piano session.
Made me realised that i really haven played duets for very very long!
Haha.
But i hadnt prac much beforehand and was just relying on sight reading basically, so in the end it became more of a talk-cock session.
QJ's exclamation of "Why arent we born in the classical age! You know, making frens with Beethoven n Chopin, that wld be more interesting right." really cracks me up. Lol.

Anyway, i was watching my hall jcrc investiture last night and some thoughts were generating in my mind, and i just suddenly let out a huge sigh.
Nina, who was sitting beside me, turned to me with raised eyebrows.
Haha, it was only then that i realised what a loud sigh it was.
Well, it boils down to me finding out that a couple of frens will be leaving for exchange nxt sem, incl. my roomie!
So the qn is, if i shld still continue staying in hall nxt sem.
Acty i really much prefer to stay in the comfort of my home.
But i guess its the distance and my timetable nxt sem thats putting me off.
And i realised that it may also be due to the fact that i'm not really ready to exit from hall life totally yet.
Well, i guess its a matter of deciding to let go or not.
Of cos, i dun have a pressing deadline to which i've to make a decision by.
Guess i shld think more abt it when the time calls for it.

Anyway, its a self-declared 3-day wk for me this wk!
Decided to come home to recharge instead, haha.
Alrights, off to my notes now! =)

My hall is stilllll having its epidemic.
Omg.
And my sore throat is back.
Sigh.

Anyway, wk 5 is coming to an end.
How time flies.
I think i'm still going to some of my classes without all the knowledge that i shld have in my head.
Still have alot more to buck up.

The past 2 wks of hall stuff such as Hall Round Island Supper, Inter-wing Games, JCRC elections brought back loads of memories frm last yr.
I could rem that it was only during this period of time that i started to get to know some ppl in hall.
Which is essentially impt to having a more enriching hall life. Haha.

And, I just came back frm nbs FOC main comm interview for the new recruitment.
Again, loads of memories frm last yr's scenario again.
How my interview went, how alex sms-ed me the nxt day informing me of the results, and i got tricked by his sms which said "sorry girl........ (leaving a very big space), u have to bear with me for future foc meetings alr cos u GOT INTO the comm!" And i stupidly thought the msg only contained the words "sorry girl"(cos i didnt scroll down), so i thought i was rejected frm the comm.
But anyway, i cld also still rem how kevin called to inform me officially that i got in, and how the 1st meeting was like (with so many intros gg around) and how all the unfamiliar faces back then turned out to be a grp of ppl i always look forward to meeting throughout the past yr.

Really, how time flies.
And how things have changed.
I dun mean the foc comm specifically, but generally my whole uni experience with all the ppl that i've got to know here.
How much had happened throughout the one whole yr.
Very very interesting.

I learn a game in nbs,
It's the master of all mind games.
What u see may not be what u get,
oh no, u may think, thats so sad.

But thats the cruelty,
Of reality.
Learning it well is the key to survive,
Otherwise, its hard to ever get revived.

The beginning signifies the start,
But there's no one to tell u "on your mark".
How to quit -- is the question,
Which doesnt seem like a possible mission.

Been sick since tuesday.
Cant ever recall when i had fallen this sick in hall before.
And its really a terrible feeling to fall sick in hall.
Esp. when there seems to be an epidemic in hall cos alot of ppl are also sick.
I still struggled to cls on wed morning cos there was supposed to be a presentation done by my grp and i didnt want to desert my loveliest proj mates!
But my very s-l-o-w tutor didnt adhere to timing again so we didnt get to present that day.
Which may not be a bad thing either, considering that i hardly have any voice left.
After my seminar, i went to visit the sch doc, who proves to be nowhere near good, and thereafter, as i was queuing in can b during that peak hr to get some food, i felt as though i cld faint on that spot any minute.
Tsk tsk, very terrible feeling.
Sigh.
When one is sick, one is not just weak physically but emotionally too. And then, words of Alex's that were spoken to me recently came floating back to mind "..... get someone to look after u....."
haha whatever.
Anyway, on wed evening, i packed my bag and decided to go home to seek some solace and recuperate.
Yay home sweet home!
My family doc in my estate is still the best. lol.

Anyway, i'm better now.
However, my fever has subsided to give way to a bad cough which is so bad that at times, i feel as if i'm coughing both my lungs out. sigh.
I need my normal voice back to give presentations!

Well anyway, last night was my hall dnd.
The food at Holiday Inn Atrium was so bad that it made me guilty for complaining abt the dessert and glutinous rice that i had at Goodwood Park last sat during sch dnd.
The food last wk was so much more better comparatively. haha.
Anyway, I managed to take some photos before my camera's batt ran out (it ran out even before i had stepped into the ballroom!)


There, a mixture of seniors and freshies.
Too bad i dun have a group photo of my freshies' OG yet!
Anyway, very importantly, i want to thank jas very very much for the emergency help!!!
Hope to be able to get some time and catch up with you when i've recovered!!! =)

During hall dnd while karen (the chairperson) gave her speech, it was filled with words which i cld totally identify with.
"A sense of loss will definitely be felt cos it had been a great committee to work in"
I guess i'm having the same sentiments towards FOC main comm right now.
But what matters most are the memories that we shared i guess. =)
Oh and I've just received the full list of sch Convocation Ball Main Comm 2008 which i'll be a part of in this new acad yr.
So many familiar yet unfamiliar names of yr3s!
Oh gosh.
Nevertheless, really hope it'll be a fun committee to work in!

Alrights, i have loads of readings and proj research to catch up with.
It's going to be the start of another wk again!
The passing of time during sch term amazes me, really.
