Lost and found!
posted : Sunday, March 06, 2011
Today, I lost my card case, and found it within an hour. This month, I lost my habit of blogging regularly, and I hope to find it back soon. This year, I lost my focus, and I wonder if I would be able to find it back. *********************************** The midterm, like my two other midterms, didnt go well because quite frankly speaking I was very ill-prepared for all of them. Recess week was spent on catching up on all the missed lectures (3 modules in total, and coincidentally these were the 3 modules which had midterms) to a point that I didnt have time to do practices. Think I learnt my lesson. Wouldnt want to wait until study week to start catching up on missed lectures again so I think I wont skip classes anymore. Recess week - flew by. I remember spending quite a bit on food - there was the JC class gathering (not sure if it still qualifies as class gathering when not even 1/3 of the class was there). Then there was the random trip to Bugis for Soup Buns etc. The very forgettable Thai Buffet experience (some items are really nice but some just sucked...I still feel like puking at the thought of the Panang curry and spring rolls). And finally bombing at Marche with KahSiong and the usual NUS Brunei gang. Nice time, nice gatherings, not-so-nice for the wallet. Bluekk. 06S03 - The few that will appear regularly for "class gatherings". @Crystal Jade Plaza Sing The soup buns i.e 汤包 which Cass wanted badly to try. We all imagined it to be an enlarged version of Xiao Long Bao, which juicy meats and all, but ended up as literally soup in the bun. The biggest disappointment of our trip. Even the Xiao Long Baos were not as nice as Crystal Jade's. I am still looking for kakis for XLB buffet.... The side dishes were our favourite. Cold Drunken Chicken, wine taste a bit too strong but still quite ok. My favourite of the day: Homemade Tofu. It taste nothing like the soft white tofu though. Kind of like yong tao fu and it tastes great. All these @NanXiang Steamed Bun Restaurant. All the food after attempts to live a healthy lifestyle of sleep early, wake up early to run/walk (inspired by the results of basic health screening which only pointed out the resurfaced weight problems - back to my Form5 levels) which failed in the end because I just feel unproductive and tired and eventually fell asleep after I come back from my runs. Discontinued after a while. =.= ****************** IHG ended during recess week. Left to chase people (in fact only one writer) for unfinished articles and he "inspired" many of my tweets this week. Cant understand the mentality - getting things done within your deadlines aint that hard. He just spent most of his time on FB doing goodness knows what. Posting Gaga videos and declaring his undying love for Gaga every half an hour (especially with the new Gaga single released last week). Sigh. I was sorely tempted to chase him for his article by commenting on one of his FB posts. He didnt meet the deadlines I set and ended up setting his own deadline AND missing his own deadlines. Win. Thankfully I can deal with such irresponsibilities in a way which he will not find out. Ha. So hall activities are dying down for the other two activities and I can continue focusing on Phoenix work...aim is to get the magazine published without any big issues. Yay i think that can be done. :) Only problem now seemed to be continuity. *********************** I should be in a better mood coz the TCM I got from one of the TC doctors back in Brunei seemed to be working. Duno whether it's the cream or the pills (yea, TCM in the form of pills) or the combination that worked. Well not fully though. At least the skin growth is controlled leaving smooth skin, though the pinkish patches remain. If you are blind and you actually touch my skin you would think that I have finally got rid of it but I guess that remains to be seen. I had similar results with some "Western" cream, just that the skin growth resurfaced after I stopped for a while. I really hope this doesnt happen with the TCM. And I hope it goes away for good. ************************ Did I mention that I am finally going to travel somewhere after months of talk and no action taken? Okay even though it's just going to be a few days (because I am very optimistically assuming that I will get VIP, of my choice) but I think it's good enough! I am going somewhereeeeeee. :) The fact tat KH is working there just motivates us to take action so much more. Hong Kong/Macau here we come! :) Labels: around singapore, NUS, Raffles Hall, skin, travel, updates |
