GC I LOVE YOU

30 Aug

I decided to dedicate this post to my GC (Graphic Calculator). I have never cherished it during the A levels period though I did have a pouch to keep it. But at that time, it was because of its hefty price of $180 which made me protect it like it was my baby. Right now, I finally realize how much I’ve taken it for granted.

For the past hour, I was struggling with Binomial questions. The questions were all P(X<10) which meant that I had to key in TEN times the same formula but only changing the X in the formula. Totally x.x And the best part, I kept on pressing the wrong numbers. So I just kept redoing it and redo and redo and the endless cycle continued. That was then when I suddenly thought of my GC, who performed this task efficiently.

How powerful it was. It only needed me to input 3 variables and the answer came out in less than a millisecond. Using the Scientific Calculator on the other hand needs average 3 minutes for questions that demand the life out of us. This is hence the reason for me dedicating a single post for this mighty tool.

An amazing tool that no other calculators can win over (which I know of).

ALL HAIL THE GRAPHIC CALCULATOR!

STUDY!

29 Aug

And so, I went for my third orientation, Esprimere. Made lots of new friends and our group won in the end! Group 3 rocks! (: Heard lots of good voices and made me think a lot. Well well, sometimes in life, these challenges would motivate us to achieve more. Shall take it in a positive way. Talking about this, its been a long time since I’ve gone KBOX! After all my assignments and tests then!

Today was specially dedicated for studying. Supposed to meet the rest, Shah, Kar Wee and Jin 2pm at TPY. In the end only Kar Wee arrived on time, even earlier still :x Blehs. So in the end he waited for the rest of us. When we finally gathered at the meeting place, it was already past 3pm. We couldn’t find a spot at the rooftop garden ): so we left and scouted for empty places to study.

On our way to AMK Macdonalds, I banged my head on the seat in front of me x.x My brother then commented that Kar Wee’s reputation of being a safe driver is in danger. I guess its always important to have a seat belt on.

When we reached AMK Macdonalds. it was full ): Our last resort was Jin’s condo and we got lucky!

Tried to study. STRUGGLE STRUGGLE. After that accompanied Jin to her house to grab BS textbook. When we came back, I found some new photographs in my camera. Seriously, we were gone for quite long and in the meantime, I thought they were diligently studying however this was their yield!

Those were the pictures taken by my brother I think, since he wasn’t in any of the photos. In the picture, we can see my laptop’s friend! HOT PINK laptop :D Nice right. Hehehe.

While studying, we got distracted. First off by singing along to the songs played. Kept saying that KBOX is actually quite near and stuff. All of us were itching to sing :P Then Shah and Jin took a breather by “touring” around her condo. I was actually pretty surprised that her apartment was quite big because my impression of condos were small rooms!

At 7pm, we went for dinner. Joined Jin on Shah’s van. She sat in the middle and towered over us!

She’s like a HEAD taller than me. I came up to her neck only. She was telling us how uncomfortable she felt being so tall. Her head was only a couple of centimeters from the roof. If Shah purposely went over a hump roughly, he would have created a “sunbathing” hole for his van. LOL.

Dinner was at Long John Silvers. Its been a long time since I’ve stepped into Junction 8. Seems like it has changed a lot! There’s so many shops now. At first we wanted to eat at Pizza Hut but there was a long queue. Shah managed to “charm” (as claimed by him) the person into letting us move up the list I guess. Since the girl called us after like 10 minutes when there was around 7 groups waiting in front of us.

Dad drove my brother and I back after that (: I did quite a number of questions today but obviously still not prepared for the test on Thursday. Guess I’ll have to work harder >< Hwaiting!

I couldn’t think of a title

27 Aug

Well well. I was just looking through my own posts and couldn’t help reprimanding myself. Just what have I been doing? Almost every post seem so emotional that I myself can’t stand it -.- Reflect, reflect and reflect!

Yesterday was seriously a tiring day. 6 hours of lecture is really tough to endure. It’s actually quite ironic when I thought about it. In JC times, we had timetables that were much crazier. In school by 8am and reach home around 10pm. Our homes almost felt like hotels, a place just for us to sleep and then the cycle continues the next day. Yes, I admit I was also very tired during those days but it certainly was more endurable than now. Right now, its only 3 hours of lecture and I’m starting to get all fidgety. Every time I lose my focus, I’ll tell myself to stop daydreaming and LISTEN. It didn’t work, definitely NOT.

And, yesterday certainly wasn’t an exception. I lost my focus as usual. IPhone ain’t a good phone to get. It’s too distracting. Argh. Real time tweets, news and chats are just at your fingertips. While in accounting lecture, we found out so many kpop news from allkpop and soshified. DISTRACTIONS DISTRACTIONS. Then everyone starts getting on twitter and tweet each other -.- In the past, friends pass notes to communicate. Now? They just tweet. Hah. Technology advances. No need to get caught passing papers around, no longer distracting to those who want to listen in class.

Seriously. Peiyu was kind of distracted too. Showed us her really cool ruler. It had the function of a vernier caliper (remind me of Physics. Boo!). So we started to measure each other’s wrist. LOL. I won in a bad way. Hahaha! I really need to lose more weight -.- just 3.5 more kg and I’ll be so much happier (:

Right up next was Business Statistics. Argh. Total x.x SweeHong, Jasmine Kok and I were chatting while doing questions. I can’t remember how to do them anymore! Gosh. I can predict how I’ll fare in the upcoming test already. Those maximax and maximin x.x Need to practise more questions! Sometimes, I really wonder what I’m doing. Others have already done their tutorial questions and I’m… no idea doing what -.- They even completed further than that. Haix. I need to work harder! I wana be a good example too! Some people just motivates me! So continue to be a good role model okay!

After that went for YEN meeting. Learnt a lot of stuff about organizing an event. Wylie was really patient with us which made me pretty guilty >< She was so helpful too, providing us her past assignments and stuff. Such a good senior! :D

Well, thats pretty much what happened the day before.

Today’s ACCOUNTING AGAIN. Let me tell you, I HATE HATE HATE MORNING LESSONS. Don’t ask me why I could wake up at 6am in the past to go school and now finds it a chore to even wake up at 7am. Blame it on the long transport. 1 hour of travelling kills people. Especially when you have to squeeze with everyone. Oh. This reminds me of the Orientation Bash coming up in Zouk. Jasmine Kok was telling me how she hates clubbing. Me, who didn’t have such experience thought it should be pretty fun dancing or something. Well, she told me that its completely NOT THE CASE. First up, there’s no place to dance. Second, it feels almost the same as dancing when you’re in a packed MRT train during peak hours. Wow. I guess I wouldn’t want to experience that. Don’t really like it when strangers touches you, as in not intentionally. Just don’t really like it.

This topic brings me to the next thing that happened. Brought 2 books to school today. So heavy!! Lent Sweehong “The 9th Judgement” which I definitely recommend to people who love thrillers!! I also brought “The Five Love Languages” book because Jas Kok wanted to do the test so as to determine the love language that she speaks. I predicted her and Sweehong to have “Physical Touch” as their primary love language since they love to touch each other during class -_- LOL. There has been so much instances already! For example, yesterday (I think) Sweehong complained that Jasmine Kok just brushed her hand. My reply to her was “I thought you like people to touch you. LOL” Well, I was right about Sweehong and wrong about Jas Kok. Jas kok on the other hand had “Quality Time” as her main love language. Jas Tan as I predicted was “Words of Affirmation”.

They started to ask about mine and I confessed that I have never taken the test at the back before. It actually doesn’t look that accurate to me so I didn’t bother in the past when I bought the book. Just now while on the train ride, I did the test and got my answer. Well, a little surprising.

What else happened today. Oh. I had fun pulling other people’s shoelaces. Favourite game in JC. I recall the days when LingLan would always pull our shoelaces and we can’t do it back because she ties hers in a dead knot -.- Smart of her. And so, JiaJun and I kept pulling ZhanYang’s, KarWee’s and Jas Kok’s. ZhanYang got irritated because we even pulled it all out. The scene of him trying to prevent us from pulling and tying it back seriously cracks me up.  Well, funny stuff happens every time when you have nothing to do and are sitting in a circle while trying to decide the next event.

Something else that happened was Jas kok who was I think bored to tears. She did this SUPER LAME magic trick that sent shivers up our spine, literally. I know there won’t be much effect describing it out unless you see her do it on the spot but I’m just gona try anyway. What happened was as follows:

J: EngHwee. I show you a magic trick.

E: oO What.

J; *Whips out KarWee’s car key” Look at this emblem. I’ll cover it and it’ll disappear.

E: *interested*

J: *covers emblem* You see, it has disappeared and it has appeared HERE *releases the keychain that is hanging from the same car key which has the same emblem*

E, ZY, WL, JJ, KW: …

Seriously… no words to describe. Ha Ha Ha.

After slacking, we finally decided to go home because we’re so tired!

Watched Music Bank just now. Boa won the third time (Y) and as requested, Shinee danced “Hurricane Venus” with her except it got cut off -.- which raged the fans (us) because we totally expected MORE. Boo! But I did catch some of it. Onew! Heh. Can’t wait for the concert on 23 October (:

Uhuh. So thats pretty much what happened in both today and yesterday. Got to go study now!

A little note to self

26 Aug

Assignment datelines and tests are just round the corner and here I am still high over KPOP news. Gosh. I mean, who can stay composed when SNSD are coming? It feels so surreal. The best part is that there’s still Big Bang, Ft Island, Shinee, Infinite and the last unrevealed band. Totally looking forward to it. I’m so gona get the VIP seats and go insane with my friends!! :D Need to save money starting from now! My brother still told me that he’s gona turn my $40 into a bad debt! How could he when he know I need to save up every cent! AHH! Still mad about the concert :P

Plus plus, I just got the stuff I ordered from GMarket. Thanks JIN! :D I seriously love the jacket and shoes! ><” Can’t believe that it finally came. A little disappointed that my red black checkered flannel shirt got canceled though ): I really wanted that. Have to scout around shops for that item now. I think its hard to find a really nice one in Singapore. ARGH. I WANA GO KOREA!

Enough craziness. I need to really focus on my assignments and tests now. Study study study and then GO CRAZY!

The negative part?

Life’s a little complicated now for me. When I was young, I thought those were just childish moments and would not happen when we grow up. Yet now, I’m facing the same old situations. Trying to solve them prove meaningless. Sometimes, its just so hard to view the cup as half full then half empty ): Life’s a struggle. Yet my determination keep wavering. I need to hang on, hang on to something. Trying to find a motivation, a goal, a dream which I can work towards.

But I guess no matter what, I’m still me. Haven’t change in some areas since young. Still hate studying, love to just go crazy over minor stuff, keep everything to myself and tell LIES to cover up the truth. BOO! Maybe one day when I can have the strength, the courage to express my thoughts, that would be the day when I’ve finally lived my live (:

Goodnight people (: Sweet dreams.
