steamboat!!!

yea.. had an early reunion lunch(?) with a bunch of kids this afternoon. The best part of the lunch was to see the kids sitting down, waiting for their food to be cooked and counting down to opening the lid of the steamboat pot... 3... 2... 1... and there they go, screaming and shouting and snatching up the food from the pot.. this went on for 8 rounds they claimed. Their next target (next year) will be 18 rounds.. next next 28 rounds... to if i remember correctly 8888 rounds.. and how is that possible??? ah.. kids

what's wrong?

they say there's some problem with singnet, i think so too.. my computer keep hanging, msn keep hanging, internet also keep hanging... my poor laptop dunno improper shutdown how many times liaoz... i hate singnet, i hate MSN 7.0.. i think there's something wrong with MSN 7.0 too.. afterall it's in beta stage. Removed it and installed MSN 6.2 instead, hopefully it'll be better. BEST if everyone switch back to ICQ, ICQ nv gave me so much problem b4. TIRED of all these internet problems, how to do my work if it carries on like this??? sianzzz

treasure them..

I was on my way to sch this morning and I heard on the radio thru my mp3 player a story by a regretful girl abt her mum. How the family not being understanding towards the girl's mum that eventually led her to commit suicide. Her mum's (then) illness was some mental problems and the family encouraged her to see a psychiatrist (but to the patient, she was being forced?).

Yes... the daughter regretted that she bluntly rejected her mum's request to change her dad's decision abt sending her to a psychiatrist then. She regretted hating her mum bcos of her weird/out of mind behaviour due to her illness. She regretted not trying to communicate better with her mum... but... all was too late. It's of cos not her fault that her mum chose this path. Due to her illness, she made that decision.

However, this is a lesson for us all to be learnt. How important it is to treasure our parents when they are still around. To regret after everything ends is all too late.

reply from lecturer...

yes, it's me again.. i juz hv to complain today... i requested to do a manual registration for the st2334 tut slot, and below is the reply from the lecturer (a visiting professor, should be new in nus)...

HI, as I have not received the list of enrollment for each tutorial session, I am not certain if I will be able to do this. I will get some information tomorrow and have a better idea, and will give you a definite answer by then.

together with this reply was another email fr another student to the lecturer.. kns, so many competitors for the tut slot... we requested for the slot and now other ppl r fighting for the slot too, i'm pissed!!!

okok.. seriously BACK to readings... n worry abt this problem later..

night classes...

...i hate them.

it's wednesday again... and i'm having a 6-9 class tonight and i hate it. But i can't blame anyone but myself for choosing this module (tr2202)... pray that i'll get thru these torments this sem...

ok.. enough of complainings, back to the readings =(

... y didn't i get it?

kns.. sh!t.. i didn't get the st2334 slot!!! why???

overseas studies? where is my future?

met up with Niva, Jeannett and Charlene on thurs... Niva showed us some photos she took in australia, looks fun!!! i feel like studying overseas... (cos sg system is sooooo stressed!!)

i often wonder.. actually what are my possible future career paths? am i really going to go into the IT line after i graduate from the world top 20 uni (NUS)? most probably not. perhaps i could go for further studies in other areas (hope so?) or in the worst case, go NIE and be a primary sch teacher in future... (oh yes.. i forgot one impt alternative: find and marry a rich guy!!! hehe..)

First week of school...

It's just the first week of school and i'm starting to panic... from the intro lectures, it seems that my modules this sem are going to be very demanding. With the projects, term papers etc etc coming.. this is no time to slack...
