* Ghost Town *

What am I doing in this ghost town? Not only the level is empty, the whole block is empty! I understand that the Malaysians are celebrating their national day at PGP but where are the locals? Hall sounds too quiet today.. Too quiet for comfort..

Anyway, I've made a promise to myself that if the freshmen to seniors ratio for tmr's road relay is not 2:1, I will die die not run for them. Last week kena cheated, say not enough players, so ask me go down. But the effort was wasted because there was not enough freshmen! OMG! Can you imagine that the table-tennis captain was the only (female) freshman there?! I seriously think that my batch did better than them at 'jio-ing' people down for ibg.. To think that I felt that they were more rah-rah than my batch during the first few days.. Did the high-ness last only for 2 weeks? Sigh..

* Cold day.. *

It is freaking cold today, ever since I woke up in the morning at 7am.. poor me.. Luckily I did not catch a cold.. I had been siting in the freezing LT and seminar room for 4 hours.. Even the break from the air-conditioning didn't really help because it is terribly freezing outside due the rain.. OMG.. save me.. brrr.. Even now I'm still feeling cold.. What happened to Global Warming? Why is it so cold? So is it Global Warming but Singapore Cooling? Lol.. Lame..

I took an EQ test but I'm quite sad about the result I got.. I've got below average EQ! Boooo! Luckily EQ can improve.. I'm starting to think that maybe 'Professional Communication' is a bad choice, since I have low EQ.. I'm like an innocent lamb, siting in the class ready to be eaten up by the seniors and other fellow classmates.. Should I S/U it? Hmm.. hard choice.. No exams.. Project and assignment based.. Knd of should score well right? Sigh.. still have a few more weeks to decide..

Time to do tutorial.. Long day tmr.. 8-10am tutorial and 10am-5pm lab.. sigh..

* Bored.. *

I'm bored and tired.. Too tired.. I don't know why I'm joining ibg again.. Came back very tired every time after each game.. Too tired to think.. Can't concentrate on my tutorials.. I feel very guilty every time I see Amanda, studying.. (Yup, you didn't hear/read wrongly. She's seriously studying this time.) I wasted my weekend in hall last weekend.. sigh.. nothing productive done though.. lol.. Sometimes I feel that maybe I have taken too long a break..

Aiya.. Don't know what crap I wrote.. but I'm just too bored.. Haha..

* Back from home! *

Wow.. I finally went back home after so long.. the last time I was home, it was my birthday.. Anyway, I went back home on friday evening, skipping badminton and touch rugby ibg trainings.. felt sorry for the juniors but still family comes first! I had steamboat that night, luckily I decided to give Uncle Vincent's food a miss and went home early for dinner. Made the right choice =) I went home with an empty luggage with a 'Things To Bring' list inside and came back with a heavy and full luggage..

I feel like a freshie again, with ibg and initiation.. The freshies are damn ON! They make 'old' people feel young again.. Hope that they can change the block's fate! Good Luck Juniors!

* The Cinderella - From Ashes To Asha *

Some pics I grabbed from Jian Hui's blog:

My first project: The Heart. Very nice design, I love it most. I was the one who did the muscle fibres part, with water hose. =)

My 2nd Project: The Compass. Looks cool. This is the prop that gave me the title "Origami Queen" until The Globe came and Valerie took over the crown.

The Wind Totem: Our display of scales. Keyboard keys and plastic sheets were used. Loved the pepsi scales rim and the (horoscope and planet signs) keys' rims. I have my name spelled out on the Venus sign! =)

Dina's first and longest project: The stairs. This is the prop together with The Compass that provided our drinks for meals. The raggers got addicted to having 'free' drinks during meal times.

E fei's Gears on the right and The Globe in the background. Look at the inner side of the pumpkin petal, don't you think that they look like cushions?

The lorry head cover: Carousel. The front is so NICE!! I like the colours and design of the front. The horse also look very beautiful.

The Pumpkin with its wings opened. The wings really looked like bird's wing. The detailing of the inner core of The Pumpkin is also very nice. I love the gem that is on the middle petal too!

Overall thoughts: I love OUR float!

* Some random thoughts.. *

I've learnt a lot from Rag these past 2 months.. I learnt to (sort of) organise stuff and people, handle some problems (though not very good) and how to work with different kinds of people.. I found out that being a team leader is not easy.. Making sure that everyone is happy and that assigned tasks meet their respective deadlines is very tiring.. Interpersonal skills are important..

Me, myself, is quite sensitive to people feelings and moods.. I can sense the foul atmosphere around me when people nearby are in a bad mood. This quality of air never fail to suffocate me.. I understand that some people show their feelings strongly, but they themselves are not aware that they are affecting others around them with their feelings.. I think that such harmful leaks of anger and sadness should be curbed..

I found out that some people can lead, some can't.. and some just complain but do nothing.. I feel that even if someone is given the task of doing certain stuff like allocation of manpower and is busy, can't anyone nearby just help to allocate people where there are job vacancies? I mean what's wrong? Does yelling or pressurising the person who is allocating the tasks help improve the situation? Is it that difficult to just take up the role of assiging people to their jobs for a few minutes? Will you die from it? Oh, come on.. Give me a break!

Just 16 hours more.. It'll soon be over.. Just have to hold myself together until then.. A little bit more.. Jia You!
