ONE LAST PAPER ON FRIDAY AND I CAN CONCLUDE THIS SEM!I would say this is probably one of the toughest semester. Exams are crap and I believe the results will be equally crap. We call it the "Final Year Syndrome". No mood to study and sleep seems to be the priority compared to notes. I can no longer stay up the whole night to study and sit for morning paper. Oh well, AGEING - let's face it! Nowadays, if I dun slp properly, I'll end up with aching body or a numb limb. Goodness, even my dad say it shouldn't be happening..hahaha!In this time of the week, I presume 3/4 of the sch population have finished exams and MSE always "bao bay" (Hokkienised). I love yet hate it.
Anyways, I should be grateful that I dun have any papers back to back and have supposedly ample time to study but was not fully optimised. The last paper - Engineers & SocietyIt's bugging me all the time because deep deep down in my heart, I TOTALLY SEE NO POINT IN TEACHING THIS MODULE!!!!!!!!!!!! Other than the topic on Ethics of Engineer, the rest is USELESS!We study the histor of Singapore which is so Secondary sch Social Studies which I have studied for 4 years plus primary school National Education which add another I think 2 years. So I've alrdy been studying SS related topics for 6 years and here I am, at age 22, recapping the history of Singapore.I love history IF it's excursion related, like going to the museums. Send me to Egypt, I wanna see pyramids and Pharoahs. But I totally hate the text! Aiyah, I'm just ranting. It's been bottled up since the start of exams. I just need some space to breathe. Back to notes!

Past 2 weeks had been sheer madness!
Rushing to do presentation slides in midst of preparing exams. Thanks to our luck for picking the last group for presentation. But nonetheless, it was fun with the gang of us corner-ing every nook and cranny of the lab to study and prepare slides. Even when the room's aircon was spoilt, we managed to share room with other students and sort of 'chase' them away with our aura..hahaha!
Went home and it felt great! Definitely gonna miss home for another couple of weeks.

Well, first paper today and I would say it SUCKS big time man!
I left like a couple of blanks because I just couldnt do it...but it's over and I'm glad.
One paper down means I'm nearing freedom!
Next paper is another killer! I seriously hate this sem. Every sem seems to pass faster than the previous and the papers seem to be tougher each time.

Apart from mugging, we do keep ourselves healthy by finishing the lab's water at a rate of 5 gallon per day shared between perhaps 10 person. We also embarked on our running which had lag time of 3 mths because the running club never materialise thanks to piles of sch work and lab. Moreover, it's tough to have everyone free in the evenings to jog.
So we started jogging + basketball last week (or was it the previous?). Went basketball a few days back and because lights were out on the court so I couldnt really see any ball. I think I have night blindness. Cus of the dark, I can't really see the ball coming and ended up with a burst vein. But I am weird. I like 'orh cheh' and the pain is bearable la..haha
We'll jog tonight again and I hope the weather permits. It has been crying rain since yesterday evening and the sun dun seem to be appearing anytime soon.
