SECOND WEEK OF SCHOOL.  
Add/Drop period is over, and sad to say, I didn't manage to get the module that I wanted. Despite me having the STARS planner page on whenever I'm online and refreshing it when I remember to. LOL. Oh well, life's never fair. Guess I'll just have to try again next semester!

Last week was...a blur. Not that it passed so fast that it was a blur, but I just have no idea what I did. LOL. It was Welcome Week in school and I spent my free time in school at my CCA booth. I *think* we were supposed to be like actively pulling people off their way to lectures and tutorials, but somehow we just sort of... I don't know, sat there and talked among ourselves? LOL. Or when we were too sleepy in the morning or too tired later on to talk, we just sat there, fanned ourselves, and tried to do some reading. Hahahaha. Not our fault okay. The heat was so overwhelming that we didn't feel like doing anything but just sat there. But...! People still came and asked about us, so it wasn't a total failure. Yay. Hahaha. I know, like still dare to say right.

So, third week of school. Now, I feel like school has officially started.

Oh and guess what?! I think I'm behind in my readings already! LOL.

(The Patriarch, anyone? I haven't even finish one-quarter of it and I think Prof Koh is already moving on to Memories of a Nonya this week. OMG.)
 
Edit:

I almost forgot. After 2 weeks of taking public transport to school, I realised I'm generally okay with it. Just that I don't understand SMRT's system.

During the morning peak hour, they have trains that will stop at Yishun. (I'm supposed to take to Jurong East.) So for example, I missed a train. The next one comes in 3 minutes, and will 'terminate at Yishun'. Means I cannot take it. I have to take the next one, which comes in 5 minutes after the Yishun train leaves. Meaning I waited...8 minutes for a train...during PEAK HOUR?! And the dumb thing is the Yishun train is quite empty because most people's destinations are after Yishun. So end up even MORE PEOPLE squeezed into the train towards JE ('cause more people come up the platform as time passes). I wonder if SMRT knows about this.

Similarly for the evening peak hour, when I want to take train at JE, they have trains that terminate at Yew Tee or something. When alot of people are taking to places like Woodlands, Yishun, Ang Mo Kio to go home. *faints

lolll one time, I spent close to 15mins waiting for my train because I missed the first Jurong east train, the next train was a 'do not board', the third train was one that terminates at yishun and then the 4th was another 'do not board'. My train was the FIFTH train omg. Was quite pissed that time. :00
