I've always admired those people who displayed to-do lists of the stuff they wish to accomplish.

Recently it has been really bugging me that apart from academically and financially, I haven't really got to do some of the stuff I've always wanted to do.

In fact I actually bother to create a new hardcopy to-do list (on a post-it) every week to list down the school-work I have to complete. (I guess the reason it works is because I ensure I get stuff done)

p.s. I'm not referring to bimbo blogs' to-do lists like

.get a gucci bag
.get a dog
.buy this
.buy that


So I've decided to create my own to-do list of stuff totally unrelated to studies.

-Learn French (hardly any other language fascinates me more and I'll be registering for lessons beginning May; It might be useful in the future and for SEP too)

-Start actively learning Tennis (will join the workshop next sem)

-Learn Golf (I've been pushing this back for years. Thinking of it reminds me of the past when I was still using kids clubs)

-Lose Weight (since the beginning of sem 1, I've put on 3-4kg. Damn. Just cant control urges to munch)

-Learn to Ice Skate.. (Every time I explain to my tutees how pressure affects melting point, I recall my desire to be able to ice skate)

-Recreational flying =) (get a pilot license from JB perhaps?)


Going to leave it at that. Europe is on my mind but I'm not so worried since it will be done if I go to UK for SEP as I intend to.


Bonne nuit!

我们去 arts 死..


its super hilarious.. let's go to arts canteen to die..


heard this many times.. roll eyes.. haha

Scientists ask why.

Why more OT? Why more sai kang?

Engineers ask why not.

Why not more OT? Why not more sai kang?


Still want to be an engineer?


Mediacorp is too pro government.

When govt wants more babies, baby show.
When govt wants pple to sign on, army show.
When govt wants more local table tennis players, table tennis show.

And now this. Yawn.

sometimes i feel i've become a victim of my own success.. (last sem's)..

i think subconsciously i've heaped tremendously amounts of stress onto myself simply because i want to perpetuate the success..

ailing pointed out recently that if i let it go a little, i could be happier..


i dun know.. maybe its true, but to date i cant bring myself to do so..

i still reproach myself for not doing well for PC last sem.. and when i cannot do tutorial questions, i get really frustrated and at times i stare at the questions as though if i stare any longer, the answers will pop out...


yea.. its really not easy being in ChE.. glamor (if there's any to speak of) aside, the workload is immense.. and its only sem 2.. term 2 is gonna get worse with MA, CM and IT getting more crazy..

i'm taking 6 modules this sem and the least stressful one is the extra SS i am taking.. unbelievable..


some lecturers really cant teach at all but yet can set really tough questions.. i hate them.. i prefer cant teach but yet reasonable questions..


i guess the only consolation is that most of my coursemates are struggling too.. well with bell curves you dun have to know everything, you just have to know more than the rest.. yet everyone is so super duper competitive that everytime i step into the LT its like entering a pressure cooker..

lab reports are really anal.. they take so long to complete.. actually my chief complain is IT1005.. about 10 lab assignments and total weightage is only 10%.. thats like 1% per lab that we have to spend hours on.. we're like beggers..

damn

the N US pun has been used so many times that there shd be a law banning it.. material looks flimsy and i wun want to appear like i have radioactive juices on my windbreaker..

nothing wrong with the design but the logo is *facepalm


If you intend to work as an airport controller in future, you can consider this because you can use it at work in future..

or look like you're wearing life jackets



wow.


sch is horrible.. =x tutorials where i cant even complete 1 question.. shakes head..


here i am trying to get stuff done and yet i've to deal with the bloody 34 deg C heatwave.. garrrr!

1st core lab..

and i managed to transform the colour of the water bath from colourless to purple when i dissolved potassium permanganate into the water..

no, actually i spilled it..

embarrassing.
