OMG. i MUST BLOG ABOUT THIS!

haha. I drove alone just now! Cos i needed to send my sister to tuition and she was super lazy to take the bus. So, i drove! haha. It may not be a great deal to many of u.. but to me it is.. I seldom drive cos i dun really noe how to park.. Dun laugh at me k? and normally my mum will be bedside me.. haha. So today, since my mum and dad are out and the car is there, so, why not drive? haha. But i've to admit that i was rather scared of the parking part.. Its the parking part that shuns me from driving.. And I actually managed to park properly in just one try! whee.. haha.

okok.. BACK TO THE MUGGING MODE NOW! (:

I'm deprived of sleep now! Have been sleeping at 2 plus, close to 3 and waking up at like 9 plus 10. Eeek! haha.. I dun noe why am i sleeping so late this week since i realised that i didn't do any of my tutorials in hall this week (i did them at home over the weekends).. no projects this week too.. And then why am i sleeping so late!?! I think i was busy collecting money from the block, typing the name list out etc etc.. And plus i jogged at night too.. (like ard 10 plus 11).. hmm.. haha. Talking abt jogging, I am super proud of myself for jogging twice this week :) We ran with the guys and so the guys had to slow down their pace for us. Its so obvious that they can run so much faster.. Like heard all their ippt got gold one.. haha. And we ran the 199 route! I'm aso quite surprised that i've the stamina to do so :) Slowly, slowly, we shall run the whole of ntu.. which is i tink 5.5 km or sth.. the 199 route is only 3 km.. haha

Had class tea st ntu's sakae yst! $16 nett for tea so we went aft our marketing class. haha. Did we really bond as a class? I think it helped to a certain extent.. cos at least i finally remebered the guys name.. (cos i saw one of the guys at IIC's event on wed.. he waved at me and said "you are cherie right?" i just stunned there cos i couldn't remember him.. And he told me he was in my tut grp.. I gave him a super blur face.. And my friend was like saying u sld have jux said "hi" and pretended that u noe him. haha. Oh well, wad to do.. we only had marketing tut for like 3 times only.. and my memory isn't that fantastic!

Had my first taste of walking out to the coffe shop next to city harvest church last night.. I was quite hungry then and so asked like alot alot of ppl to walk there.. Its like quite far cos its out of ntu.. ahha.. We used like 20 mins to walk there.. But the company of friends has made the walk less tedious =p

Went out with my mum, sis and aunt just now.. Celebrated my mum's bday in advance.. So we went to partyworld and sang for 4 hrs.. Coolness.. haha.. They are like so hip can.. =p So, i ended up not sleeping at home today, to catch up on the lack of slp.. which i normally would do so every friday, when i come home.. haha. i would like slp the whole day lahh..

Project work next week again :s then helping out at ocbc stock challenge then d&d @ dxo...

I'm still coughing after 1 week! This cough has been spreading throughout the halls. But i'm glad that my fever has subsided.. So what has been going on for this week...

Had fever last thurs nite in the hall.. My first illness for this year.. haha. Somehow my cough has developed into a fever.. Dragged all the way till sat before going to see the doctor. And i saw this TJ guy outside the clinic and said "hi" to him. The surprising thing was i had never talked to him b4 in TJ althou he was in bp mentoring too and was in the same tuition class for bio in sec 4.. and there we were chatting.. Weird huh? But i still can't remember his name.. haha

OKay.. so went back to the hall on sun nite.. Then a few of them were bored and so went to my room for some HEART TO HEART TALK.. so weird talking to guys abt gossips.. The guys are so gossipy lahhh.. And Felicia kept saying that they always come to my room.. haha..

So for the whole week, i had to rush through my marketing presentation on Markplus.. We were given only 1 week to prepare and we were the first grp to present.. So we dun really noe wad to include and the comment given was that we followed the template too much and was quite dry... But its overr.. haha.. aft 1 week of stress and trying to come out with new marketing strategy and lots of brain cells being killed.. haha.. Next marketing presentation will be in 2 weeks time on shangri-la.. haha. Then more projects to come.. have to interview someone for ob and write a proposal.. Super tight deadline too.. And heard stats aso got presentation.. some casestudy thingy.. oooo So its basically presentation after presentation, project aft project, tutorial aft tutorial.. its impossible to finish the tutorials in advance. abit pointless too.. haha

Had block bbq yesterday.. Saw some unknown faces.. they are freshies too.. So mingle ard.. talk, eat, gossip, play games.. till i forgot to go online to meet my pw grp mates for some discussion.. was 0.5 hr late.. haha..

Oh ya.. and i changed my electives to human resource instead of media in america.. dropped it on the last day of the add drop period cos that was the time when ppl started dropping and there are spaces for quite alot of things.. yea.. but the lecture for hr is boring.. the lecturer explianed 6 slides in 1.5 hrs.. can u imagine it?!? the lecture is seriously going at a snail pace... haha.. but i tink it sld be quite easy although they have a quota for the number of ppl getting A.. 20% or sth like tt.. Cos i seriously can't do tt media in america thingy.. although its interesting, the essay part scares me.. my senior essay is like quite cheem plus i had difficulty doing the first assignment.. The teacher asked us to do a film review of 2 pages but then i no matter how much i write.. how much i cracked my brain, i can't even complete 1 page!!! This is how pathetic it is..

Then we went to Jurong Point yst to do some grocery shopping.. that was my first time going to jurong point and all of them were like saying how can u be studying in ntu when u have nv been to jurong point.. haha.. Kenny drove us there and he wanted me to drive backk.. And i was like refusing to drive someone else's car.. In case anything happen to teh car, i will not feel good.... haha

Okayyy.. Its time to get back to my tutorial.. It seems that the friends of children (sth like bp mentoring) doesn't want me.. I went for their interview but they never contact me..all my frens got contacted alrdyy... :s

The 2nd week of school has just passed..

And projects have all started.. i'm due to present a marketing case study next thurs.. given only 1 week to prepare.. I guess this is how uni life is.. with more projects to come..

Had cca fair and signed up for akido, guitar, financial management club, lindy hop, welfare services club (the organisation of overseas cip and those sort of like bp mentoring).. But i guess i'll jux give akido and guitar a miss cos akido is on a sat.. plus i tink i'll be participating in hall events like being part of the committee for ocip.. they are going to cambodia next yr... plus will be going round doing sai gangs for the block.. like finding ppl to take part in hall activities, collecting money.. plus studies and projects and i want to join some sub-com in some of the hall events.. it sure seemed quite packed..

I have also been exercising alot lately... ran on mon, basketball IBG on weds and a slight jog, played badminton on thurs followed by another run.. And everyone thinks that i'm good at running since i kept asking them to go for a jog with me.. which apparently i'm not.. i just want to keep fit k?

I'm taking media in america as my elective now.. alot of readings to be done before lecture but the topic is very interesting... talked about war journalists and media in the 19th century.. I think i'll only dread the essay part.. but luckily i've got senior who is willing to help.. :)

AND there are seriously many very nice people in the hall.. Kenny would sometimes drive us to class and back from class.. so we dun have to take the shuttle bus. candice would share with me her notes and presentation exp.. siyan and rebecca for being super friendly.. plus the freshies.. i keep hanging out with layhui, sab n jocelyn.. haha.. n we will keep using msn to like ask ard who would like to go for dinner etc etc.. plus the occasional games and chit chat sessions at one of our rooms.
And i just realised i've been suaning alot of ppl lately "_"

I feel sick from taking the medicine. such an irony.

HELLO :)

So basically, school has started for me and week 1 of school was rather slack. Cos there were only lectures, so i had only like classes from 8.30to 12.30 on tues and then 2.30 to 4.30 on wed.. The rest of the time was spent in the hall.. like hanging out at friends room.. playing card games, mahjong (which i totally died in the hands of 3 other seniors.. they are all so pro lahh.. Sld be play alot for the past few yrs. everyday nth to do then play mahjong. haha), watching movies.. And i ate alot.. Mac for supper for 2 consecutive days... at very late timings like 3 a.m... But all these were fun.. We were still in the orientation mood.. So it seems that everyone was quite bored in their rooms and we kept looking for one another.. haha And we gossiped alot.. So much so that each time there were gossip, dunno why ppl will end up saying "cherie is the one who said that" haha.. Sabrina and i are the gossip queens of block 52. :P And once we got so bored that we walked 1 round from our hall, to hall 9 then to 3 n 16 and so forth all the way back to our hall.. haha.

So back track a little..

Had my hall FOC last week.. Didn't go for 2 days cos of driving, which i passed fortunately, accumulating a total of 6 demerit points.. whee.. i can drive now.. But still quite terrible at parking.. Cos we used poles during test and the school car had arrows on its window.. so i roughly noe when to turn n all.. But when parking next to a car, its totally different. :S I still remember i was being rather polite and sweet during the test.. Like nodding my head and said "okay" sweetly everytime the tester asked me to do sth.. like turn right or wadever. haha. My instructor was telling me that i had to respond to the tester (which i tink i didn't do so the first time round) ahha..

And so, i didn't really felt super high during the orientation cos during the 4th day when i went back i hurt my toes while playing games at sentosa.. Cos i hit onto some rocks..So, i didn't really play much for initiation night.. Then the last day was SP night.. Quite sian.. I had like nth to talk to that guy during the whole night.. Jux got no chemistry lahh.. Plus i had to bear with his loud music during the entire ride to the dinner place.. U see, he had this mp3 player and instead of listening the songs tru the earpiece, he simply blasted the song throughout the journey.. Other than that, he was quite nice lahh.. Peeling prawns for everyone to eat..

So, after sp night, my og went to the hooters at clarke quay.. So, yar.. drank quite abit and as u noe, my face will go red easily, so everyone thought that i was drunk but i wasn't at all.. And they kept saying that the fact that i kept insisting that i wasn't drunk meant iwas really drunk.. Wad rubbish.. ahha... And when we went back to the hall, we continued to play drinking games.. Super fun.. :)

Then monday night was the inter hall bash @ Zouk. We left like quite early cos we had class @ 8.30 in the morning.. Imagine going clubbing and then leaving at like ard 12.30. haha. It was super crowded and ppl kept pushing at the dance floor.. Plus they anyone mix the drink.. Although we ordered like vodka plus orange, i felt like i was drinking orange juice!

Then there was the signing up for electives part.. I had only 12 AU s this semester, which is very little. So, i'm required to take an electicve.. But i logged on to the system late and almost all the electives were being taken up, leaving only electives like chinese.. I couldn't even take maths or econs even though there were vacancies cos most of them req prerequisits.. Oh my tian. Can u imagine how pek chek i was.. Cos seriously this is the best time to clear some of my AUs for electives.. So i kept going to the website to take a look but there were no vacancies.. Thank god someone suddenly dropped his elective, which is "media in america".. So, i hurriedly added it although i don't really noe what is it about and whether it will be difficult. Oh well, worse come to worse, i shall SU it.. haha

So, tutorials and seminar start next week and there are alot of reading to be done.. Although i tried reading, nothing seemed to go into my head.. Still in the slack mode.. Plus it seems that they req us to start debating during our first seminar on mon.. Wahh.. like totally not prepared for it.. luckily no marks will be given for the first few rounds..

So now, i'm thinking of what cca to join to enrich my uni life.. "_" and i dun really noe wad i want to do..

But seriously i hope that hall life will not be a big distraction for me.. Like playing every night and all. Its time to exercise some self-discipline next week! But i love the ppl at blk 52.. they are really great friends. every single one of them :)
