For the first time in my life, maths lectures seem to be conferences in alien language. Barely able to grasp the explanation or even stay awake during those sessions left me questioning myself for being so alert the moment they ended.
People are different.While I could barely understand, People of Republic China (PRC)'s students were indulging themselves in the vast knowledge they had just swallowed. Even a student with MP3 plugged onto his ears could explain to you what the lecturer was mumbling about when you caught yourself squinting so hard during the explanation and cant understand. Their existencies in our engineering world of NUS simply makes it the most challenging faculties in Singapore. .. and bla bla bla..
For your very info sake i wrote the two paragraphs a month before and now, feeling obligated to update my blog lest the title of blogger be stripped from me, I will jump into the present circumstance of my very life..
Reading week has started and so does mugging!! Kissing the busy hall activities goodbye and saying hello to the inches-thick books crowding the study table are the 'in-thing' now..
In just a few days' time the whole NUS will face the bi-annual final papers and yes..yes.. there will be more studying to do.. arghhh...
Anyways, today I met up with my cell group leader for lunch (she travelled all the way to NUS just to have lunch with me) *sigh* never really like it when people have to trouble themselves just to help me out or do something for me .. The lunch was terrific *correction* the moment spent was terrific...Being an ex-NUS-ite, she flashed back her past occurences and great memories that this place once offered. There are so much things mentioned that kept me thinking even up to now...(power man!!!)..I really look up to her..
I honestly feel that singaporeans in general are very capable people.. they seem to have time to do everything, sports (oh yeah these people play hard), study (like you don't know), shop-till-u-drop phenomenon and even other stuffs like shouting for dinner at 6 pm with a loudness of 10x my lecturer's (B -block.. dinner.. now..), doing nonsense thing (sorry if u feel offended) like night-cycling (they hunt for food from 10 pm to 6 am haha... and rode tandem bike).. I mean these people blew away my once biased perspective that singaporeans are just studious people who don't know how to enjoy life... how wrong i was...
Did i mention how loved i felt that there are so many FREE exam welfare packs distributed in campus?? This is to enourage all students during their 'mugging' time... so sweetttt thanks to all sponsors like Shell and others (only remember shell coz it is the faithful sponsor to engin fac hahaha)
