Oops. Accidentally laughed during PGM lecture today after the class.

It was unexpected that he lunched with us today and told us more about his family. I guess that would be first and the last time I sat with a professor, this close to talk. He doesn't know me after making myself embarrassed today. Cuz I am his "new" student.

Something struck me today. The kind of motivation for me to do what I really should and have been wanting to do since I was in JC. Today someone did mention about this and shared his experiences. Makes me feel that I really should start working on it. I always love travelling, and what I would really hoped to achieve is, I could use my own hands and feet to help others while on travelling, and make a difference to all parts of the world. 多了解人生,看看世界。 It is the experience that counts. I really regretted not signing up for COR last year when I have the time, although COR is not something to do with OCIP, but it is also an experience to interact with the Deaf since I didn't really meet any along the way. Okay, I have already set up my mind to join some overseas trip next year.

I used to fear to step out of my comfort zone. Just like how afraid at first when I flew off for Canada. Thank goodness there are people around so I won't feel alone. I feel more independent after someone lead me to step out of the comfort zone. And now, I am facing the same kinf of problem. To do what I really want to do but afraid to step out of the comfort zone to meet new people. Well, what's going on with me?

As what I have told js this afternoon, I entered uni with 3 aims: 1) secure a scholarship 2) to go on exchange 3) to go on an OCIP. The first two have already been fulfilled. Now left my last one, and I only have my last year to go!

Sometimes I really admire him for his passion on the things he set to do, though I only started to know him that recently. Not too long ago. Which gives me a wake up call, what I should really do, even before I graduate. 我总觉得我喜欢做的事,都是一半一半的,没有把它做的太好,也没有把它做的太差,就,马马虎虎。。。 This kind of bad habit, I should really kick off, and start to live my own life from now onwards. Which reminds me of what mum asked me the other day, about learning driving. Well, this really never come across my mind at all. Or at least, learning driving is what people at my age would have already done it.

I wonder how my teaching stint be like. Will I have the chance to do what I like? Will I get to travel around the world doing meaningful stuff with the students? Will I experience different things? Will I meet good people? Will I face alot of stress in controlling the students?

Played badminton today after school and chitchatting during lunch. It has been a long time since I last touched badminton, wanted to in Canada but was to busy. Sometimes got reminded of the good old days in JC. I thought to myself as I was playing pingpong with yt today, if I didn't meet this group of friends during JC. I wouldn't have reach this kind of sportyness til now. I wouldn't have organised badminton sessions for my class, wouldn't have found what I at least do-not-hate kind of exercise. Well, yes Karen, I still suck at running haha! But, at least I started to swim after living a life in Canada. I miss the "I still can't recall the name of the gym session with this cool and hot and pretty instructor" ohhhh!!!!! yes Sculpt and Sweat. Free every Sunday. Hai, if only NTU has a well established gym like this.

Went out with dong this evening and he shared something really funny out of all things to me. When a couple gets together, it is like in primary school, taking PSLE, sweet and easy. When a couple gets married, it is like university education, complicated and restricted. Ok lor, speaking to someone who hasn't gone through any relationship, is like talking to a toddler like me then. :P

Had many thoughts about relationship these days. I hope really one day I would sort them oall out. Will share it once I'm free. Time to study for now. At least concentrate! I guessed I have had the motion to do so for the time being. Off all distractions.
