somehow i just got this inertia to start bloggin....I just keep telling myself...argh...this can wait...i got better stuff to do :P

So wassup for yesterday.....hmm.....let's start on sunday. It was just another morning in the summer, with great weather. I was woken up by vera to go for branch. I gotta mention this, i slept at ard 2 and at 5.30am, this bloody fire alarm was triggered. Everyone gotta rush out in the cold in their nighties, shivering with cold. For goodness sake, it's 5.30am!! wonder who's that idiot. And that's the 3rd time for the day man.

Sunday afternoon, the exchange students had a gathering to Gibbons park for picnic and some sports games. I dragged vera along, tho she wanted to finish up some of her work. Gibbons park is a very beautiful place to hang out, with long bicycle trails, lakes and of cuz, the typical vast piece of grasslawn, with big trees for picnics ;) We have to pass by this residential area before entering the park train, and the houses here are soooooooooo nice. It's just my kinda dream house with a thick patch of grasslawn in front of the house, flower hedges, a maple tree just at the side, plants, creeping up the walls, and without FENCES!!

Got to know quite a bit of ppl there, played volleyball with the french ppl, man....think they just love the game. Some of the guys were playin soccer, frisbees while some just sat under the tree for chips and food...yum yum. I got to know this australian girl, laura. She's a mixed. Her mum's a malaysian chinese, from penang too! haha....and guess wad, she's in engineering too, we r taking the same air pollution course! I was like....but how come i didn c u in class....and she was like...oh...i slept thru it....haha. It was great hanging out with her and claire from scotland. Well, somehow, we are connected thru several common points i guess ;) And i'm really happy to have someone in the same class! I'm wearing my new pair of shades for the 1st time....and i really like it...thanks to michelle who chose it for me...haha. It's really funny how michelle and I was standing there trying out all the shades. And it's kinda affordable....only 17 bucks but it's really cool...must show it one day!

There was this sophs auction kinda thing goin on last night where all sophs are supposed to reveal their real names and offer great services for ppl to bid for. And well, yea...mango's real name is rahul....but 'mango's kinda stuck in my mind....so i'll just call him mango...haha. It's a cool name i think.

Monday's kinda like a bz day for me. I have 3 classes, starting from 1. It was my bioseparation process. The venue wasn't hard to find, cuz i just happened to enter from the correct door everytime and i can see signs everywhere. It's a freaking small class ok! There's only like 15 of us ....argh.....well, everyone gets relatively more attention...yea right.....But i think this course will be really interesting, cuz it's something which i'm interested in, pharmaceutical processing. well, i think i gotta read up loads on these cuz i think i did miss a couple of stuff that year 4s learnt. 2nd class was statistics. It's relatively easy i suppose, but this class is super huge....haha..... One thing about all the classes here, there's no spoonfeeding. The lecturers doesn allow their notes to be circulated, so we gotta take down a lot of own notes and do our own research. It's kinda good i guess. It somehow made me more focused in class.

I'm not done for the day yet! i got class from 7-10pm....yea...it's kinda sucky...but it's a psychology class, and i had always wanted to take that. I thought i was alone again but to my surprise, 3 of the ntu ppl are taking this course too. And cool, jonathan stays in my hall, at least i have some company. It was a huge class too. We didn learn much, cuz more of an introduction to the course. The class ended at 8 and i went to UCC to get myself the textbook. Yea, it's 103 big bucks but i guess i just need it.

Saw the international students gathering again, with rianne, laura, claire, nina, heather, peri and some other guys. Ok, we watched a movie on my floor lounge, my big fat greek wedding. It wasn't great, but it's kinda nice to watch a brainless movie after a whole day of class. I actually did some readings for psychology after that. Wanted to read more on bioseparations, but i decided that could wait till this morn......

The beautiful weather awaits me out there....beautiful summer in beautiful Western
