Finally all my tests are cleared! I thought that I'll be very relaxed and feel more happy. But instead I felt more stress. Especially after the MA test. I reached home at 9.30pm today after the test. Just realised that I made 1 careless mistake! That's 1mark gone.
Not only the MA test, the HY test also. For the discussing 5main points part of the paper, I think I'll not be able to do well. Moreover I was not be able to finish the paper too. Today, handed up my HY essay as well. That's 35% of HY marks confirmed. Then for MA, that's 20% marks confirmed! Haiz..
See, before exam, stress. After exam, more stress. Get back paper, super duper stress!
On way back home, actually discussed with LiRong and Meiling about alot of things. Like high expectations for results, university life, our life, what we want to do etc etc. In the end, we came up with the conclusion that we shoudln't keep trying to compete with the others, which is quite true. For me, I never compete with others. Since secondary 4, I've only trying to compete and conquer myself. To reach MY expectations, not others and not expectations based on others' performance. Cause I know that 人外有人，天外有天。 Hence, no need to keep comparing with the rest. You'll not be able to match up. Moreover, Meiling also talked about the elites of the elites, feeling that they're the best and unable to accept other being cleverer and better than them. This made me think about the lesson I learned during history lesson today-that from the imperial examination system, those officials were unable to accept other people's opinions as they think that their the best and not willing to acknowledge others. 所为，人比人气死人。So, no need to compete, just do your best, aim for what you want and be satsify.
I also know that university life is more than just studying and mugging. So, I've decided that, after I'm able to adapt to university lifestyle, the exam and workload etc, I'll join and take part in activities. Definitely! ^^
Anyway, our conclusion for our future job is--marry a rich man and be a taitai. LOL! Today, I was able to finish up the CZ assignment. Hopefully I'll get full marks again. =) The CZ assignment comprise 40%. If I can get full marks for all, it's 40% comfirmed of marks! So, as long as I don't flunk or screw up my final, I'll be able to obtain an A for this module. That'll make up for the lower grade, which I think I'll be getting, for my MA and maybe HY?
Initally, I was so stress that I want to go play ball. But it was quite late already. So maybe tomorrow? Was planning to complete my GEK assignment 3 by this week. Already bought the materials and thought of the concept. I just need to do the research and sort out the information. I think should be able to complete it by this week.
Next week is E-learning week. Another short 'break' again next week. The tests really wear me out. Okay, although I got lots of things to say, but I was really tired, so I guess I'll stop here now.

Finally, tomorrow having my last 2papers.Then mid-term is over! And next week is E-learning week. So basically is like another term break, this time is no need to mug de term break!
Been sick for 1whole week during the term break. So I'm basically coughing, sneezing and feeling lethargic while mugging for my mid-terms. But managed to survive.
Today ST1131 MCQ was relatively easy. But I forgot about what is Classical and what is Empirical Approach. Haiz. Got that wrong. Otherwise I think can get full marks? :P But got 1 question everyone sure wrong. I mean most of them. Cause it's identify potential outliers, so use IQR to find instead of just observing. If observe sure will choose the 36 and or 99 as the answer which is wrong! Haha. So proud of myself that I thought of IQR! Doubt many will get that right. So that means number of people getting full marks is lesser than getting 29/30 can still guarantee me an A!
Today CZ assignment1 marklist is FINALLY OUT! After like 2weeks? Haha. The Zhang Louxin sure takes his own sweet time to mark. But I got FULL marks! Hooray! Initially planned to look at my result tomorrow de. Cause I scared if no full marks or very bad will affect my mood to study. But quite glad. Now very happy. Though still disappointed about my ST..Haiz.
Just noticed that I've been basically mugging and mugging through the few weeks. I didn't really get to enjoy myself nor the uni life. The only life I enjoyed out of uni is the mundane lifestyle of going to school, attend lectures, getting confuse and frustrated over the terms, rushing to meet deadlines for assignments, mugging for tests, trying to grasp concepts, going library to look up additional materials etc etc. I didn't have a really fun-filled uni life. Perhaps it's because I didn't really have time since I'm not staying in Hall. Will definitely stay next sem! Less distracted by television shows then I can be more focuse to study and mug and more time to sleep as well! Save time on transportation!
Ok, will stop here now. I guess I'll have more time to blog this few days after my exams. Ciao!

Ciaossu! So long never blog again! This week I felt more relax during weekends, cause not much assignment deadlines to meet since I managed to clear most of them last week. But in 3weeks time is my mid-term exams. Quite fast eh, only 6weeks of study then we'll have a mid-term test. But not all of my module though. At the moment only 2modules confirmed will have mid-term. That's MA1102R and ST1131. ST1131 is MCQ, so should be ok. Just need to understand concepts can le. But for MA1102R, I'll need to practice more questions.
Today went to watch JUMP. It's real nice. Very funny and entertaining, just the break I need after being so stressed out for so long. And I realise I need to get alot of things-crumpler bag and I also want to get an iTouch. But bag first. Haha. And I think should be able to save up. Since I'll get $200 per month from the tuition, spend about $60 on transport per month, $20 or less per week for food in school, should be okay then. Definitely can save up. Ok gotta go.

Ciaossu. LTNB! (No time no blog! I know alot people don't know such short forms, but I always use them. Quite cool eh!)
I realised something-everytime after lessons on Tuesday, I'll have a headache. Because of CZ lab lessons. I really don't understand a thing! But I borrowed one C Beginning book from the Yishun library as I find that it's quite easy to understand than the textbook, which assumed that I know everything basic about computing. But that's not the case!
And my favourite school day, surprisingly was not Thursdays. Perhaps it ended late. But I prefer Wednesdays. Because I don't have much lessons. Only 1 lecture and 2tutorials. So basically my afternoons are free and I can do some readings-like what I did today. I read up on HY2206 materials. Though I still can spend another 2hours in the library, but I don't want to take the 5-6pm trip back home as I don't want to squeeze on the train. And it's only on Thursdays that I can play ball. I've already plan to go play ball tomorrow if it doesn't rain. Despite the heavy workload, I can't afford to spend my school days without exercising. It'll help me to destress and then make me want to work harder. But I can't afford for shopping. Shopping takes whole day while playing ball only takes up at most 4hours-about 7-11pm.
Ok, I shall keep this entry short. Still got tons of things to do.
