school was finally over last week. all ended on a rather nice note other than Re & Ri which was uneventful as usual. hah.

French teacher came back after weeks of disappearing back to Belgium to settle her family matters. bombed an impromptu oral on us, which everybody stuttered equally through so it was alright. was so glad to have her back, even if it was just the last week of lessons already. didn't like the other teachers' teaching. i think Ma & Sa are like the best french teachers ever! =)

Spanish class ended on the nicest note. we had oral and we did fantastic, though i was secretly relieved at it being the last lesson coz i was extremely bimbotic during oral. i had extremely mixed and frustrating feelings at one of my oral group mates though. fortunately the other one was fantastic, or else i would have died. haha. some girls whipped out a camera at the end of the lesson and we started taking class photos! =D yay so happy~ Ar was cute. we were halfway through photos taking when she declared "actually i brought my camera too!" then excitedly went to fish it out. lol! (: spanish was one of my happiest lessons at ntu! =) think i'll continue level 2 next sem. heh.



that's my oral group.



some of the girls in class..



and the whole class!! =D gracias Ar y companeros for making the class so wonderful and enjoyable!! =)

Fr gave me the grandfatherly feeling during trauma! hahaha. think it's just me. anyway, trauma has been a nice and useful mod although i haven't been catching up on it regularly. studying it these few days provoked quite a mix of emotions. it's indeed easy to study and read all that methods and techniques on how to be a good crisis intervention worker. but really putting it into appropriate use isn't as easy as it seems. and for that, i admire Fr a lot! =) certain words stuck in my mind as i read, particularly this:

"when parents die, the children lose their past.
but when children die, the parents have lost their future."

sigh. how unfortunately true!

anyway, it's as enjoyable reading trauma as reading up for abnormal psych. in other words, the textbook is one of those books deardear would have loved to read it as a storybook! ahaha. but the danger is that it's so storybook that it only gets encoded as a fuzzy system! O_O hah. ok need to try to remember more. sigh.

mum's been away for the past two days. and oddly, i found an inner peace being the substitute housewife. hah! and sometimes at night, while i wait for the water to boil, i just move all my stuff to the kitchen table to study and stay there until 2am. hahahaa. it's kind of weird but sometimes i do imagine doing that next time after getting married =X

ah well. just being weird. haha.

or perhaps it's the first time since school started that i feel so peaceful. no more weekly assignments and the sort to worry about. just reading the textbooks and returning to MY more 'normal' sleeping hours (coz my normal is sleeping at 3-4am, but i've been sleeping at 11+pm coz of the immense fatigue from travelling to and fro school hah.). exams can be rather nice at times, not considering the fact that i'm actually not having enough time for revisions =X

ah well. off i go! jiayou!! =)
