early rising days

My habit has been weird lately - turning in as early as 10am and wake up as early as 4-5am. I am suprised that I actually feel more energetic after this. I just finished my 3rd paper and it was okay. I just hope it could mitigate my bad grades for my midterm.
There are only 2 papers left and fortunately I have about a week to prepare. Tomorrow will definitely be an exciting day and I'd say if I succeed this, it would one of my happiest moments in my life.

my best and worst part-time jobs @NTU so far

Best
1) ALC - Admin, pay may be low but this is the only job I could just study on my own and do nothing at the office.
2) CATI Telephone Interviewing - a challenging one because it's an incentive-based job. With basic of $6.50/hr and $1 for each survey, one could easily earn up to $10/hour.

Worst
1) Graduate Studies Office - all about filing according to alphabetical order, or search for files around the office..eww..
2) LWN Patrol - somewhat intimidating. I was supposed to check for hogged seats at the library and confiscate their belongings if they are away for a period of time
3) ITTO - Data-entry...eww..glad it's ended

Nonetheless, I am still glad that I had the chance to learn and get to know some people@work. They are ALL friendly. I haven't bumped into any baddie yet.

the flu day

Influenza alert! Had a pathetic day because of the following reasons :
a) virus came and attack me so I am having flu now
b) my cough still hasn't died down
c) got Hall 7 (a hall with no canteen) for my vacation period
d) feeling sleepy all the time
e) big crazy cravings
f) the sucky weather
g) went for a lecture and practically gained no information about my final exam
h) overdose on strepsils

I almost gonna die due to the excessively hot weather but I am having flu, should I switch on the air-cond?

the scorching hot weather

Tuesday has always been my air-cond day, as I’ll be stuck in ALC office til late night, doing whatever I like. Thanks to the hot weather, that I am here much earlier today. Weather report says there would be scattered thunderstorm starting yesterday for 10 days but I saw no rain at all! So I cant trust these forecasters anymore. I pray hard it’ll rain heavily tonight so that I can save some aircond fee! HAH!

Can’t wait to know which hall I would be in during my vacation!

just for fun #1

22 days to 4-month vacation

117 days to Ipoh trip

123 days to YOG volunteering activities

138 days to Year 3 Sem 1 First Week

267 days to Vietnam trip

first post as my stress reliever

Exams are around the corner and I thought oppositely how others think. I am very glad about it ‘cause it means that my long holiday is coming soon! My timer widget here tells me that there are 8 days 23 hours and 37 minutes left to my first day of my paper - MAS315. This is my 4th sem in NTU and I could see that I feel less tensed up as compared to when I was in my first year. Bell-curve system’s at fault!
