End Of First Week!

Today concludes the end of the first week of school. I thought of doing some running, but the the rain just wouldn't stop.

This morning I got up at about 7.30am and realized I was late for breakfast! Suppose to meet up with Wenlin and Wayne, and it is quite inconsiderate of me to be late especially when Wenlin woke up early just to eat breakfast with us. Sorry to both of them!

For the past week, I had a series of good and bad luck plus a whole bunch of blurness. Tutorial balloting went really bad for me because I just couldn't get the slot I wanted. It is a game of chance and I kind of got used to my bad luck. But on Thursday, the department decided to open up a few more places in the more popular tutorial slots which I manage to secure a place as it is first come first serve! I am glad that I did not manage to get the slots that I bidded in the previous rounds which would have forced me to attend tutorials in odd hours. I believe that Life is unfair but is balanced. =)

This semester I have 3 days with classes at 8am. So I "decided" to sleep by 12am everyday! Of course it is easier said then done. And until today, the earliest time I slept is 2am which was yesterday. Like Jit Vern said to me today, "Work can never be finished.". Every night, I would peep out of my window to check if his lights are still on or not at times past midnight. From my observation, for everyday in this week, he slept earlier then me! I am SURE that he is more busy then I am and he must have a secret skill that allows him to sleep early and still get his things done...

Yesterday morning I woke up late for class, because I set my alarm to 7PM instead of 7AM. Thanks to Jit Vern for waking me up else I think I would have woke up just in time for dinner instead =p.

Went to Clementi Bookstore to get our textbooks today and I seemed to have problems making decisions. I guess I am a little tired after the lecture and the lack of sleep, and so my lazy brain decides to run on minimal power. It was pouring on our way there. Well, at least there is one "intelligent" decisions I made today and that is to wear shorts and slippers to class. Ok, another reason for the sloppy attire is also because I am late for breakfast. =)

My "To-Do" list have been piling up and I hope I did not forgot any pen down any of them especially the important ones. There is also a handful of decisions I have to make and see them into actions. I am not complaining actually, because I am glad that people around me are willing to take some load off my shoulders and carry out their responsibilities properly. You know who you are and I know who you are. Thanks again!

This coming weekend is going to be 2H's 10 year anniversary BBQ! Kind of excited actually and it feels quite special and a little hard to believe that we are still keeping in touch for 10 years which is like almost half of my existence on Earth. Got to sort out the food list tonight and arrange a time with BX to go down to SLS tomorrow to get his burner and of course to eat the Minced Pork Noodle at the basement food court.

Finally manage to get my hands on Audioworks stuff again after one month of break. Got a little rusty with handling all the equipment, but yesterday's IHG Supper is indeed a good warm up. Well, it sort of reminded me of New Year's Eve where I forgot to switch on the mains to the rice cooker and made my family starve for an hour.

The reason why I don't make much mistakes at work because I am dead serious when I am at it. My face tells it all. But off work, things are apparently different. Yup, I got up at 7am on the first day of school because I thought class it at 8am when it is actually at 9am. The consequences are sort of negligible as I spend that extra hour in the morning ironing out my desired timetable. Someone once told me this : "Know where to make your mistakes and when to laugh at them."
