Poster accepted!! =O

YAYYYYYYYYYYYY!! =D

So many things happening after exams! Oh well, some of it started going wrong before exams ended actually~

But then, I'm learning to cope, or at least, I hope I am.

=)

Outings outings outings! I've been going out very often! With lulu, with mummy!

Lulu and I went to eat Mac breakfast on wed morning with his xiaomei and bf. And we went to eat Tony Roma's @ Suntec at night! Hahaha. It was my first time eating ribs! And well, a rather messy attempt is what I can conclude~ Hahaha. It was quite good lah, though very expensive! O_O But I suppose that's the price of ribs~ Heh. And I was very very full!! Then we walked around for awhile, and went to play at Toys'R'Us. Hahahaa! =D Then we were heading home, walking to MRT station, when we saw qiqi and daniel trying very hard to take picture with the xmas tree outside Suntec! Lol. So we, being very nice people, offered to help. And, in return, got our photo taken with the xmas tree for free too! Lol. So funny. It's like walk out of shopping centre, then somebody offer to take a photo for you for free lidat! =D

Yeap and went out with mummy on tuesday and today. Today went out together with my aunties and cousins~ Hahahaa. My close to 3yo cousin has yet to develop theory of mind! According to her mummy, this was the very interesting conversation that took place when she took her to the market:

vege seller (to my ah yi): 小姐，要买什么？
cousin (to vege seller): 不可以叫 小姐!!
vege seller: ?? then 要叫什么？
cousin (to vege seller): 要叫MUMMY!!!


HAHAHAA!! *fainted!*

Hmmm I must have looked super desperate for exams to end! Hahaha. Coz many ppl came to congratulate me on my exams ending! =D

Lol.

Maths paper was crappy as predicted. Unfair~ Harder than past year papers. Couldn't do like more than half of it I think. Don't wanna think about it anymore. Spent my whole journey out of school thinking about it already. Bwah! And I intentionally combed Hall 6 for a recycle bin so I could throw the exam paper and all the notes away right after leaving the exam hall. Hahahaa. Yayyy! Maths is going down in history! =D

And as predictable as tingting always is (Yam, 2008), I went to meet my beloved Toolbox after that! Wheee! =D Hahaa but he was on-site in VJ, so I waited and went to MP Library to borrow books =X Hahahahaa. Deardear was like...what!? You go borrow books after your exams? Eh, different! It's storybooks! I very long never read anything (besides Harry Potter, which has been collecting dust on my shelf for so long I forgot about it! Hahahaa!) liao! And it's like I remember the first time Lulu went to my room (in hall) with Xian, and I went to bathe while they waited for me to go for dinner. Xian started surfing the net, and Lulu started reading my psych textbooks! o_O I was in a state of shock when I saw him reading so intently after coming back from my bath! Hahahaha. He claims it's like storybook to him, compared to his 1-0-1-0-1 textbooks! Hahahaa. Yes, so all the more he should understand my textbooks are not storybooks to me, so I need more solid storybooks for leisure! =D

Lol.

Yay. So we went to the MP food centre there to eat many many stuff! Hahaha. And we went to ECP after that to cui hai feng~ Hahaha! WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~ So happy! It feels like 2000 years never go pator with Lulu liao! Study study study. Yucks! But i'm so happy tonight! YAY! =D I love my luluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu ^^ Xie xie luluuuuuuuu~

Lalala~!!

When I was in JC, I used to faint at the sight of complex numbers and mechanics. I claimed that I love probability and statistics much much more.


Now I wish somebody gives me mechanics questions to do, and take away all those joint pdf pmf cdf and what-nots away away awayyyyyyyyyy from me. I do not understand, wth my lecture notes nor the textbook is talking about!!


And I do not understand, how on earth I am going to pass my paper! Wait, you mean I'm even going to pass? @_@ Right.


Yes, I am so so so convinced I'm not gonna take anymore maths module next sem. Nobody can persuade me anymore that it's a pity to give up my maths minor now. Rin has brainwashed me into thinking that doing stats without knowing what it's used for, but just for the sake of applying formulae, is absolute rubbish. Yes, you need to let me know performing a t-test will tell me if lead levels are significantly higher. Don't try to throw me a problem, and tell me I ought to be smart enough to know which formula to apply. How on earth am I supposed to know what to do with joint distribution functions when none of them reveals anything about lead levels or psychosocial factors! o_O


I hate math, I hate math, I hate math! I think I hate math for the first time since after primary 6. (Ting, before 24th Nov 2008). Yes, I believe I will no longer hate maths anymore after Monday. I believe it's an unstable attribution, not stable. And I believe it ought to be attributed to external factors like lousy lecturer, rather than internal factors like lousy Ting. And I most definitely believe it's just specifically MAS215, not globally all maths.

No, I'm not suffering from learned helplessness. No, I'm not going through experimental neurosis. Ting ting is so gonna be alright.



RAWRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
*crawls back to textbook and notes meekly*

*LEH LONG LEH LONGGGGGGG*

I wanted to take french level 3 but it adds 2 more 1.5h days into my 3-day-week! So i'm considering taking Spanish Level 1 next sem, instead of during year 4!

LEH LONG LEH LONGGGGGGGGG.

Anyone wanna take Spanish Level 1 with me?!! *poorly attempts stephie's innocent pretty please look* Hahaa. I can only fit into index number 20114 or 20115 (preferrably 20115!). Heh. Anybody interested?

=)

Wiki-ed central limit theorem (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_limit_theorem), and I see cool stuff like this:

Sir Francis Galton (Natural Inheritance, 1889) described the Central Limit Theorem as:
"I know of scarcely anything so apt to impress the imagination as the wonderful form of cosmic order expressed by the "Law of Frequency of Error". The law would have been personified by the Greeks and deified, if they had known of it. It reigns with serenity and in complete self-effacement, amidst the wildest confusion. The huger the mob, and the greater the apparent anarchy, the more perfect is its sway. It is the supreme law of Unreason. Whenever a large sample of chaotic elements are taken in hand and marshaled in the order of their magnitude, an unsuspected and most beautiful form of regularity proves to have been latent all along."

o_O

Isn't it amazing how people can idolize stuff like this using such literature?

I am so glad I decided to stop my maths minor!

Anyway, you can all scold me for blogging for the 3rd time of the day already, when I still have a paper on Monday! =X

But i shall break until after dinner than study! (May dinner never come! =X)

Haha. And after all the goo gah about timetabling, and when I finally got bored of looking at the endless taiwan bag spree, I blog! -_-'''

Finally realising I've been a bad girl, not focusing on my studies after stats, I took the half as draconian a measure yesterday to tuck my laptop safely away from civilisation (Thong, 2008), and into the cupboard, so that I could study for my paper today!

Ah, it was better late than never. But it wasn't much help, coz there was too much stuff to remember!! =X And so the blurness during my paper today. Not only, did I answered part of my essay question completely wrongly, I pulled a totally 前无古人 后无来者 stunt today!

I brought my ring file with me today when I went to school. You know, the usual last minute of cramming information while on the train, and waiting to go into the exam hall. Then, finally getting sick of cramming info just before stepping into the exam hall, I started taking out my pencil case, jacket blahblahblah, dumped my bag on the floor, and went in. After walking for centuries, I finally found my table safely at the very very back of the hall. So I started unloading my water bottle, pencil case, matric card, blah blah blah, onto the table. And it took me awhile to realise I was actually unloading my FILE onto the table. Omg! Stunned. I was so horrified that it was less than 5 minutes away from "You may now turn over the paper", and I was holding my file full of notes IN the exam hall!!! O_O Needless to say, I ran down the long long long (remember, my seat was at the back?) row (or column?) of chairs to get out of the hall, file flailing in my hand. And as I ran, the chief invigilator went "Please make sure you do not have any other notes and papers with you". And as I reached the door, the invigilator there asked "What did you forgot to bring in?" And I was like "Erm, I brought my file in". And he stared at me like I was mad. And I hastily ran out to dump my file. Then ran all the way back into my seat, panting like mad. I think it was the first time I ran like, 200m in an exam hall. And it was like 1 minute away from start of the paper. And I started to take out my stationery and stuff, and in a frenzy, sent my matric card and eraser flying around. -_-'''

Yes, I miraculously managed to finally smoothly start writing my name on the OMS, before 9am.

-_-'''

Crazy girl. Stop being blur, for goodness sake!

***

Oh well, jy hh went Pizza Hut to celebrate the end of THEIR exams after that. And Yam and Xian sadly tagged along to dui themselves. Hahahaa. I was not so silly to go dui myself. So I went to meet deardear at IMM instead! Haha. Yay~ Ate Subway! Haha. It's nothing fantastic, but we were still very happy! Coz very long never share foot-long with each other le -_-''' Hahahaa! Wheeeeeeeee~ I love eating with deardear!! Actually I love doing everything with deardear~ -_-''' Hahaaa!

No no no. Actually,

I LOVE MY DEARDEARRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! ^^

*hops around happily* ^^

haha ok i super take back my words.

plus my electives i have a 5 day wk, with 3h, 1.5h, 6h, 1.5h, 4h.

???

what sort of a shit timetable is that! I WANT TO STAY IN HALLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!

gone are the days of "I'll decide if i wanna take level 400 stats when my stats results are out."

PSYCH PPL,

registration is on 1st december!!!

*runs around freaking out*

anyway, if electives goes well too, i forsee a very nice timetable again next sem! =)

*xian, there's no asian psych leh~ =X

BOOOOOOOO! I haven't been able to concentrate on anything today!!!

*POUTS* =(

stupid ms words!!! *pissed*

RAWRRRRRRRRRRRRR

i'm like, in a super slack mood now lah.

think had too many days in between papers le. was already like super slack ytd, although i was supposed to be studying for my friday learning paper which i'm progressing like a tortoise with my notes-making~

stats paper today was alright i guess. it was exactly what i had expected to be so i was generally satisfied, although i realise after the paper more than half of my regression diagnostics was wrong. *waves good bye to 10 marks* hahaha! yeap, unfortunately what i expected was half an hour left for very difficult mcqs, which everybody will be panicking over. yea, so it came true, and like what jul said, the last 30 marks of the paper will be a gauge of your tikam power~ hahahaa. computational questions were ok, as i predicted too, coz i figured out Rin was genuinely nice like if he said it's gonna be easier it would be easier. ahaaa. too tedious though. he made us do three damn hypothesis testing for 4 pathetic marks! o_O

hahahaa. i realise i'm complaining quite happily. lol. guess i'm just happy that stats is over. it was the paper that i studied hardest for out of all the cores, and the one i was somewhat happiest mugging for. hahaha. well, i studied hard coz my midterms lousy like siao 25% gone liao, and although we initially thought our report was quite well done, i felt quite insecure and unsure after he grinned at me a tad too enthusiastically when we submitted it. so bo bian lor had to study real hard~ and i like studying for it coz most of the focus was on ANOVA which is so much easier (i feel) than sucky regression! and i felt more motivated to study regression too after doing our report, coz i finally had a clearer concept of what regression was about. yay! i seriously think i benefitted alot from the project! although eventually i think my stats grade is not going to be very good, coz of the midterms and the heng-suay performance of today, i seriously still think Rin is like the best stats teacher we can ever get! yay! i ought to join the Rin fan club! hahahaa~

if somebody can seriously convince me that level400 stats is useful, and i'm not gonna fail it, i'd seriously gladly take it! (not alone though, think i'll die) oh well. but whoever can convince me that i'm not confirm-guranttee-chop gonna pass a Rin module, i think you're more genius than Rin! X_X hahahaa

Oh well!

1, 2, 3. i can't believe i just typed 3 paras worth of stats related stuff! -_-'''

Ok, so today i decided to declare mini-break after stats and went to where deardear was on-site for his IA to kajiao him. Hahaa. Actually it's coz i missed him alot alot coz we have been seeing so much lesser of each other nowadays! =( We used to see each other like at least 3 days a week or sth? Then exams period i had to mug mug mug, and don't go to school so often at the same time as his work le. So we end up seeing each other only like, once a week or something? =( So, it was a very short period of time seeing him, but it was happy enough for me to last i guess =) =)

*march1* happily toward report! =X

For the greater good of mankind, statisticians ought to stop making ASSUMPTIONS!!!

And forget about regression diagnostics too.

tsk tsk tsk.

unhealthy group of ppl, statisticians are.

ACJC girl tied up, roughed up, and humiliated on elite JC premises

What kind of birthday celebration is this, wonders an appalled STOMPer, who came across a video of an ACJC student tied to a chin-up bar, had cake stuffed in her face, and was blatantly humiliated right in school.

STOMPer outraged was shocked, to say the least, at the footage of the ‘celebrations’, which were put up in a popular online video channel.

And the final slap in the face? The video was tagged ‘loser’.



The birthday girl is tied to two chin-up poles

Mind you. ACJC is a co-ed institution, and whilst this was happening, other male students were around to witness her ordeal.

The birthday girl even broke down and cried in the video.

And at the end of it all, a staff member was seen admonishing the students not for doing these to her, but for messing up the place.



Dragged and humiliated

Says outraged:

“As seen, these are the student’s friends tying her to the chin-up bar in their school compound, directly in front of the canteen with a large number of people watching.

“She was dragged all the way to the compound.

“Subsequently, her movements were restricted and food thrown directly into the face and hair repeatedly, makes me utterly disgusted to watch.



Chocolate milk and cake are stuffed in her face

“Chocolate milk and foreign substances stuffed into clothing is absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable. I am very enraged by this act.

“It is an awful sight and there is no way the victim is enjoying this.

“As ridiculous as it gets, in the first video at 9:20, a female was trying to untie the victim.

“Unbelievably, without hesitation another person shoved her hand away and stopped her immediately.

“No one else bothered to stop the act and what left me dazed was peers laughing and cheering throughout the entire act.

“To say that the victim was not hurt emotionally, nor her image tarnished, and that she would not suffer any negative effects on her would be an outright lie.

“What kind of a birthday celebration is this?

“And to top it off, with reference to the attached picture , "tagged loser.jpg", it's disheartening to see that the person who uploaded the footage actually personally wrote "loser" as one of the tags to the video.

“Is it merely a celebration on the surface or just a facade to intentionally cause emotional distress to someone?

“Clearly there's more than what meets the eye here.

“To post this in a public domain would be a direct harassment and humiliation to the person.

“How insensitive can they be towards their peer? Shouldn't they respect the emotions and pride of their schoolmate?

“Although birthday pranks are generally harmless and for the intent of everyone having a good time, this has clearly gone overbroad.



An ACJC staff scolds the girls for messing up the place

“I am not exaggerating this incident but if such things were to happen to me. I will not be able to control my emotions and I wouldn't be able to study in such an environment with peers like this around. Unmistakably, I will be mentally and emotionally hurt being embarrassed in front of everyone in my school, and also the entire footage being uploaded onto the internet allowing everyone else in the world to watch me being humiliated.

“I do not want to be the next person nor anyone else to be in such a state.”

The STOMPer, also a student, wants to highlight this issue, which the former feels is akin to bullying, and hopes that the emotional well-being of students will not be affected by such irresponsible acts.

Likewise, the contributor feels this incident has thoroughly tarnished ACJC’s reputation.

Outrage hopes the matter will be looked into, and that school rules be revised to ensure the safety of students.

ACJC's principal says the students involved in this incident have been counselled to show their friendship in other ways.


***




This is seriously sick. Goodness, you should look at the videos! And most of the people doing it are GIRLS. Ok, so who said anything about boys are more into physical aggression, and girls are into relational aggression. This is total madness. And somebody commented that she might be enjoying it as a form of bondage.

WTH!

And to top it off, many ACJC students (e.g. http://alvinology.wordpress.com/2008/11/15/pissed-off-acjc-student-javier-yeo-defends-schools-ragging-culture/) have reacted angsty-ly to claim that it's actually their school culture, and people who can't appreciate it are just not cool yada yada yada. Ya, why don't you let me shove snakes and centipedes and tarantulas down your shirt next time, and let me know if it's cool or not.

Crazy bunch of people. I am SO totally speechless lah! I actually saw it in Xinmin Ribao that the students actually retorted that anybody who can't appreciate this is 老古板! Ok, I think you can call me Lao Gu Ban from today onwards. I'll gladly accept that as long as I don't get cakes and chocolate milk shoved down my school blouse, tied to chin-up poles, or savaged in front of everybody like nobody's business.

Grossed out.

Malaysian worker dies after being attacked by white tigers at zoo
By Satish Cheney, Channel NewsAsia | Posted: 13 November 2008 1515 hrs
http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/389571/1/.html


SINGAPORE: A Malaysian contract worker died after being attacked by three white tigers at the Singapore Zoo on Thursday.

The worker has been identified as Nordin Bin Montong. Zoo officials said the 32-year-old had jumped into a moat at the white tiger enclave and was subsequently mauled to death by the white tigers.

Police said they received a report at 12.30pm about a man sustaining neck injuries at the zoo. Paramedics were called to the scene and Nordin was pronounced dead at 12.45pm.

Biswajit Guha, assistant director, Singapore Zoo, said: "Prior to the incident, the zookeepers had actually noticed that the contract worker was behaving erratically.

"He was throwing things around and as he was walking out of the zoo, he passed comments like 'Goodbye, you won't see me again'. He later cycled back and 5 minutes later, the alarm went off."

Nordin had jumped off the ledge into the water and once he was inside the enclave, the three white tigers mauled him for five to ten minutes, while 20 zookeepers tried desperately to save him by distracting the animals.

They were too late, as were the two licensed rifle shooters who were called to the scene.

As a precautionary measure, the white tiger exhibit has been temporarily closed and the 9-year-old tigers, which came from Indonesia, are in confinement for now.

Zoo officials said once the police finish their investigations, they would examine if there is a need to further enhance safety measures.

Singapore Zoo added that it is natural for tigers to pounce on any prey and there is no reason to sedate the animals.

***

My goodness. I don't know to feel sad for the man or for the tigers! =X erm, although it's still under investigation, all i can say is, i definitely would have chose a less disfiguring way to die.

=X

No, i seriously don't fancy being mauled to death.

Even if i want an indirect suicide, i would have chose a less painful way. Ah, well. Maybe research is right; men prefer violent ways of suicide. And Singapore has no guns, SO.

...

Ah, ok. Please don't sue me. What i've commented about suicide is purely my own speculations, trying very hard to apply what i've learnt so hard but didn't come out for exams... nothing to do with the news above! -_-'''

***

Happy 11 months, dear!! =) After 6 days of your dip dip!-ly missed absence, i finally got to see you today in my unglam half dead look! Hahaha. Missed you so much.. =) =)

Happy (hopefully counted correctly) 76 months to jul and cy! and happy be-early erm, is it 4 months(?) to stephie and feng! =) Hahaa paiseh i'm getting a little old and confused~

Yay! 13 is always a very happy day every month! ^^

... ...

***

I meant, if you don't count Reb paper =X

Hah. 2 papers down! The toughest times are over! Hopefully~ Hahaa. At least i don't have to sleep from 11.30pm-4am anymore.

French was like the most fun exam i've ever sat for in the last 2.5yrs~ ahahaa. Ok, maybe only i thought it was fun =X oh well, i don't know anybody else taking so can't really compare. Was a little irritated though. Somebody asked M a question, and i happened to be sitting in front, so M grabbed my paper without asking (while i was waiting for my blanco to dry), and waved for J(i think) to come, and pointed out to him blahblahblah. And i thought i would get my paper back after that. But no, M walked up to the mic with my paper to make an announcement! -_-''' Yes, all the time, everyone around me was madly scribbling their essays, and i had nothing to write on! *sulks* lucky it wasn't those no-time-to-do paper. or else i would be damn pissed! bwah!

And I walked out of Adolescent paper relatively calm today, although i knew i screwed it up big time. Maybe it was the fatigue eating me up; I was just too tired to bother anymore once it's over. And maybe it was because I went in totally 100% prepared to face such a paper, so I wasn't that distraught even when I couldn't do the questions. In other words, it was simply learned helplessness.

You've got to pardon me, i'm blindly throwing out terms that I didn't get to put to use during exams after chewing on them for days. ESPECIALLY ANOREXIA NERVOSA.

Damn it! She must have known we would speculate jul to be anorexic! So she don't want to set anorexia questions~ It's called the die-die-also-want-us-to-die phenomenon! (Ting, 2008)

Even the mark allocations was totally weird! *grumpy ting* Ok, i conclude i must have been really tired after my paper. Coz now i've rewarded myself with can1 porridge, a strawberry milkshake, and napped, i start getting irritated about it. Hahahaha~ Ting's Delay of Agitation~ -_-'''

***

Yes, i've had enough of nonsense spewing. I ought to start preparing for the other killer papers ahead~ See? I didn't use Doomsday anymore. Xianxian the pirate, stole my copyright phrase. Tsk tsk!

Good luck, people! Study hard!! =]

*looks at time* gosh. 45min ago i was looking up some cheem stats term. how on earth did intermixed treatment design ended me here!? O_O

last thursday, i waved good bye (happily!) to xian, and went "see ya on Doomsday!"

and now, i can literally see Doomsday ahead of me.

tmr is the first paper~ French 2! the paper i ought to have sat for on 15 april. ah well. all i can say is thank goodness i'm not sick again.

am very very tired though.

and i can forsee how i'll be even more tired tmr, after my paper ends at 7pm, and adolescence starts at 9am the following day.

and i told xian see ya on Doomsday, coz apparently everybody agrees that Reb's paper is the ultimate DOOM. nobody else seems to feel nothing can be more doom than Reb's paper. ok, except maybe if you're not taking Reb, but Rin only. haha. if you resemble poor me by taking both, just keep your fingers crossed and be cool, and remember not to be stupid again next sem.

=)

ok, i'm not blogging here coz i'm super confident of Reb's paper, but rather the converse. but i'm just so tired of studying! so lemme take a *break* before dinner. *looks around for kit kat* and *finds none* =( =(

oh la la~

bon chance!

If one were to believe the Book of Genesis, humans' dislike for snakes resulted from a divine intervention: To avenge the snake's luring of Eve to taste the fruit of knowledge, God instituted eternal enmity between their descendants.

(Ohman and Mineka, 2003)

Ok, so fearing snakes is supposed to be evolutionarily adaptive?

So how did the whole concept of evolutionarily adaptive behaviors and furthering reproductive success evolved, if not for the snake who showed Eve what is sex?

Hmmm.

(And that was in no way any offense meant)

i ought to quit ruminating.

for the greater good of women, whoever can come up with any symptoms-alleviation of pms, after i put aside some money for my husband and my children in future, i'll donate the rest of my money for you as research grant.

bwahhhhhhhh!

*

anyway, i was reading some more about anorexia from my learning textbook, and all the characteristics alarmingly reminds me of jul or stephie!!! o_O like to control herself not to eat, yet have a keen interest in food, and actually love food. and playing with food on the plate, arranging them here and there. low food intake but high activity level (i.e. exercise alot). yada yada. if i'm not convincing enough, pls enquire bobo, xian, jy, hh! =X hahahaa. girls, pls do not turn anorexic!!! O_O and you can start by reinforcing yourself with food continuously and regularly! hahahaa~ which i think actually, you do.

bwah!

ok, i was just being random and alarmed by the textbook. anyway, i think jul is kind of more worrying than stephie. stephie is the eat-same-amount-as-tingting-but-doesn't-swell-like-ting. hahahaaa. and jul is having comorbidity of seasonal depression somemore~ *faints!*

JUL EAT MORE PLS!!! *gives stern look*

HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY TAL!!! =) =) =)

And that was the photo you promised to photoshopped off the mark and send to me! *frowns* where is it!? Lol!

Anyway, girl. Have a great great great day today! ^^ And i'll chop a date in your calendar soon, after my exams!! =) Take care, alright? I love you!!! ^^ *birthday MUACK!*


And happy be-early birthdayS to jieru and brandon too! =) Both who decided to get born on the same day, and hold party on the same other day, and unanimously picked a day i can't make it! =X Hahaha. Sorry peeps! Hope you enjoyed yourselves! =) Happy happy 21st!! ^^

And of coz, happy birthday to my nephew yu jie who i'm positively 100% sure he isn't reading this, coz he just turned ONE YEAR OLD. -_-'''

And happy be-early birthday to caobei too! whose birthday falls on a very auspicious day like, 3 years later -_-''' hahahah though i'm sure she ain't reading this either. -_-''' hahahaha. i believe win will make your birthday a wonderful one, coz he is er, almost as nice as chang! (i had to say that!!) lol. ^^ enjoy your birthday! =) and maybe we can go, errrr, window shopping..., one day! =X hahahahaa~ haven't seen you nor chatted with you for uber uber long..take care!!! =) =)


*phew* so many birthdays! and i had to wish them all at one go in case i'm too busy to blog in the next few days.. hahaha!

tchao! =)

As I was reading up on Anorexia Nervosa, there was this study on the Singapore cases, and I spotted the lowest BMI as 10.2.

Siao! I thought. And on impulse, decided to take out the very intimidating weighing scale. And so i shrieked in alarm at the 2kg increase in weight since god-knows-how-many-months-ago.

Panicking, I fished out the calculator and started calculating my BMI too. And checking against the guidelines provided,

27.5 and above = High Risk
23 - 27.4 = Moderate Risk
18.5 - 22.9 = Low Risk (Healthy range)
Below 18.5 = Risk of nutritional deficiency diseases and osteoporosis


*ahems*

Yes, it's time I start drinking Anlene Concentrate too! *scrunches up face in disgust* But then, it's ok! it's exam time! So i've been drinking lots of late night milo and eating cheese biscuits! Hahaha~ So maybe by end of exams, I don't have to go buy Anlene Concentrate already! Nyahaha.


Oh, and did i mentioned? I've been crowned Queen of Random!

幸福原来那么简单 =)

Sorry peeps! Am a little lazy to reply tags right now! =X But you can be assured that i'm reading them! Hahahaa~

i think Reb should learn from Rin. i've been suffering too many bouts of getting my intrinsic motivation killed this semester. Rin was nicer though. He gave time to rebound from the depression. Reb is terrbile, she allows...ONE week. Yea, maybe one week plus 2 little pathetic days.

Sigh.

No point talking about unfairness here, although i have much to grumble about that. Happens that everytime i try my best, i only get my desired grade 10% of the time. Thanks to the 90% geniuses who makes up the rest of the cohort. Yea, i shall stop harping.

Haven't been in very tip top form for revisions these few days. Beats me why. Getting back more grades definitely doesn't help. PMS is obviously not helping neither.

My study and sleep times are getting all messed up. Sleeping time ranges from 10.30pm to 3am. o_O How to study like that!?

The only subjects that seem easier to study are french and stats. Haha. No idea why. Studying french always make me wanna continue on and on to the next level. Although i'm actually quite horrible at it =X And stats just seems so beautiful all of a sudden, especially more so after we did the project report. Rocks~ I refuse to read Yammie's blog entry about stats exam. Hahahahaha.

Speaking of stats project, it's one of the happiest projects i've done in NTU. No idea why~ It's super ironic. It was my most worrying project group when it was initially formed. For one thing, i don't believe 6 ppl is an optimum project group size. And for another, the ppl i'd be working with were not the usual clique of ppl (except xian of coz, who i am just blatantly pseudo-sick of). But it turned out to be great after all! =) We had a diverse mix of crap, brains, motivators, naggy ppl (no credit for guessing who correctly). Coupled with lots of noise and drama while doing the report, and surprisingly breezing the consultation through probably boosted our confidence a tad more. Ahhhh~ Am so happy! This turned out to be one of the nicest groups i ever worked with! =) =) =) And i'm so proud of our efficiency! Wheeeee! Felt so amazed, though shagged by the end of Friday. That was like the longest project meeting I ever had! Hahhaa. Oh wellllllls. I can only pray hard now that Rin loves what we did too~ =] And i'm so thankful i'm not getting back any more grades before my exams! *phew*

Jiayou ppl! And stop forwarding me smses about exams being cancelled! -_-''' I've received that sms duno how many times today already. Spend your time studying lah! Lol. Good luck! =)

you know all about how you have to change your environment if you want to change your behavior.



and thence the not-as-motivating-as-i-thought change in wallpaper!

HAHAHA! This is so uber.

Ppl take a break from mugging, and have a good laugh! =)

in futile search for a ring file, without the slightest tinge of regret, i took out my to-go-into-recycle-bin physics notes, to make way for the ever disgusting maths notes.

and i kept seeing eugene chan's grinning face in my head, telling me i ought to have threw those notes away after failing my physics promos.

hah.

now the disgusting lecturer's maths notes goes into that jinxed file. hey but it jinxed a C out of my failing physics. maybe it'll somehow jinx a B+ or something out of the equally gross maths module.

yes, i shall make thy pretty Saintestrelis file the jinxed subjects file.

GO GO GO!


and i happily made myself Venus's favourite experimental subject of superstitious behavior.

you know the time of the semester is back again when you start seeing sad or angry or bored or even weirdly cited blog entries around. or even more simply, when you no longer see new blog entries.

and you know you are in deep shit when you are 11 days away from your first paper, and you blatantly ignore the note "stop procrastinating" below your countdown.

and you know you are in deeper shit when you are less than one-third through your revisions, with more and more assignments and new teachings coming in, with your project deadline drawing so near that you conveniently spend 12 hours of your day working on it.

yes, i know i am in deep shit.
