Hello Year 2 :D

I'm officially a 2nd year student! Yay me!

So this semester I decided to go all out :D

I'm taking 4 subjects in 7 weeks, breaking my personal record

Fingers crossed that I could score well for all 4 of them :)

There's 2 subjects that I particularly like this semester

Critical Thinking and German Language

Critical thinking just reminds me of the days back in British Council

There's debate and discussion which I love compared to report writing :D

So I guess choosing it over Basic Professional Writing was a great choice

I enjoyed the class so far!

German Language is just awesome 

I like the way they speak!

English and Chinese is more of a softer language while German is slighty rougher

So I guess it'll be fun learning a language like that

I'm liking the class so far!

Guten Tag ya'll :D

Week 1 has passed, 6 more to go!

Baby, I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down eat you alive
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals

XOXOXOXOXO

One Year Down ❤

Hello peeps! ❤

I know it's been ohh-so-bloody-long ever since I updated but I've got good reasons

Just hear me out. Or, read me out? Not out loud but.. You know what I mean :)

1. I was having my finals

I'm taking 6 subjects this semester, it might not sound stressful but let's see, 

A long semester takes up 14 weeks, every subject would have at least 6 chapters so let's just go with 6, that's 36 chapters in 14 weeks, now let's deduct 2 weeks for holidays, mid-term weeks, practical tests and cancelled class. That leaves us 12 weeks. The first week is usually the introduction of the subject and another week is used to do assignments every subject. That leaves us with 10 weeks.

10 freaking weeks to study and master 36 chapters.

Did I mention we're suppose to score well for finals?

2. I've turned 20! :)

I know this isn't really a reason but I've been thinking a lot about it lately. Turning 20 means that I'm one step closer to being a responsible adult and I'm suppose to start acting like one. Not spending my birthday with my family just made it worse. Deep down I know studying for finals is the right thing to do but the kid in me just wants to go home and eat a cake with my family. To be a responsible person or be happy? I chose to be responsible, not gonna lie, I wasn't happy.

Which is why I have no mood to blog :(

Long story short, I haven't had the time or the mood to blog :(

But it's all over now yay!

Finished finals, back at home, all is well ❤

Back to the main topic, ONE YEAR DOWN!

2 more years until I can graduate ❤

The past year have been nothing but tough, leaving home, a whole new syllabus, people from all walks of life, shitty internet connection and cycling under a hot sun.

I'm proud to say that I survived all of that for a year

Little things that I've learned from the past year were

1. University lecturers are nothing like high school teachers

You're basically on your own cause gone were the good old days where teachers would scribble on the white boards and explain every single thing and come to your desk to make sure you do things right. Instead we now have lecturers that only clicks the next button on the computer on the powerpoint slides and if you don't understand, you gotta send an e-mail to book a timeslot to ask questions.

2. You will feel dumb

You know that feeling when you're sure you could ace that test and when the results are release you really did? 

Remember when you were mad at yourself because you're so close to getting an A+ or A? Wave those days goodbye because not only that the time to study the subjects are much shorter, whatever you learn is also way harder than your high school syllabus. 

You just need to accept that scoring a B ain't that bad :)

3. Your faith in humanity will be destroyed

As soon as your university life starts, you will have to complete group assignments. The first meeting with your group mates will always go well, names, ideas, jokes were exchanged, thing seems to be going well, and BAM, 3 days before the due date you'll be sitting in front of your computer trying to solo through the whole assignment.

This is all based on luck :)

4. Sleep is for the weak!

You've studied everything for the coming mid-term test and you have 5 hours left to sleep. Do you really wanna risk waking up not remembering stuff and ruining 20% of your final grade?

Of course you don't :D 

Be prepared to join the panda club

5. Not like the movies

I'm sure most of you have watched movies about university life where there is booze and parties. I'm sorry to crush your dreams but that is not how it's gonna be. Unless you don't care about your grades or you're crazy smart or you're just here for fun, then yes, enjoy it! 

But hey, at least you get to know some real friends that would last a lifetime :)

Remember, this post is just what I feel and it doesn't represent every university student

Everyone could have a different opinion :)

At last I would love to thank a special someone that went through all of this with me

It was hard for the both of us but at least we have each other

I don't know if I could survive this without her

I thank you with all my heart Michelle Ong ❤

Let's graduate and get out of this place ASAP.

That's all for this post I hope you guys can relate and like it!

XOXOXOXOXOXO

Hey lovelies!

It's been really really really long since my last update :O

I've always wanted to update the Taiwan trip blog post before anything!

It was really fun and I love it there can't wait to share the joy with you guys!

But I left the pictures in the computer back home

And I'm already at the hostel so that's gonna be on hold for a bit!

Anyway it's been 6 weeks since the semester started

*can't believe it's been 6 weeks already*

*don't know why but I find this so so funny*

There's only 14 weeks a semester

And I'm taking 6 subjects this semester

Meaning I've got to learn 6 new subjects in 14 weeks and take a test for it?!!

Since when did our education system became like this?

Back in high school there's 9 subjects but we've got 2 years to prepare for it!

Just because I'm 3 years older doesn't mean I can automatically cope with all that!

Am I the only university student feeling it? :O

If there's a chance to go back in time I might go back to the high school me and tell me

*that's quite confusing*

If you think this is bad, the worst is yet to come

I would tell myself to have more fun

Because there's no time for that in the future

Every single week will be packed with homework and tutorials and practicals

For those students who've been hardworking all along

This would've been a piece of cake

As for me...

Yep... I'm kinda like that

Now that it's Week 6 the assignments come crashing in 

There's 6 midterms that I have to prepare for 

That's not all, some lecturers love giving quiz in their class

Some lecturer even prepared Test 1 and Test 2

This was my first reaction after looking at my academic calendar

But we gotta do what we gotta do right?

Even though sometimes you gotta choose between strangling your own neck...
Or your lecturer's neck

You just gotta hang in there.

That was a horrible horrible pun

Don't judge me. I can be a little weird at times :O

This phase happens every semester

Just gotta grab your... cookie and get it over with :D

Just keep smiling no matter what life throws at you

At least there will always be Twitter and 9gag :D

Or just think about stuff that you're looking forward to 

In my case, going to China and Australia yay!

Seriously can't wait for this to be over so I could pack my bags and go!

Alright guys that's all for today

I wish this post somehow help you guys get out of the sad and lonely and confused state

Love you guys!

XOXOXOXOXOXO

Group ASS-ignment D:

YOU GOTTA WATCH THIS VIDEO IT'S HILARIOUS

Speaking from a person who just submitted her group project 

I can relate.

But seriously though, why do we still need to do group projects in university?

I know it have something to do with teamwork skills and all

But sometimes/most of the time things doesn't turn out so well

Some people would make so many empty promises at first 

And when the project begins 

They would either be busy with homework or other assignments 

Which made you a Lone Ranger on the assignment 

Or maybe you're one of the other 3 D:

Not cool dude, not cool

Well I ain't complaining about my team

My team was really awesome

We got a lot of help from family and friends 

After 2 nights of burning the midnight oil

And quite a number of dimsum and fruit juice

We managed to finish it off so I could say that 

Our project went pretty well ❤

Girls power! Plus a certain watermelon dude  ❤

I might not say this enough but thank you so much 

You're quite amazing I'll give you that :D

What I'm gonna type next might contain quite a lot of cuss word

If you're not comfortable with it I suggest you stop here :)

I have this mutual friend, not gonna type out his name to protect his privacy

Assuming he's Z

Z has a friend and his friend said he could always team up with him if Z doesn't have a partner for the assignment 

A few days after that, Z went to the his friend cause he couldn't find any group member

His friend, B, said these exact words

"Dude, I asked you to get a team didn't I, now you're alone and I can't do anything about it, I told you to get a team quickly and see what happened? I'm not gonna offer you any spot in my team cause we're halfway done and you're weak in this subject you're just gonna leech off us"

So Z was left all alone.

What makes me mad is that,

There's still 1 spot left in B's group and he actually offered that place to another person who already have a group, saying that he guarantee they'll have high marks on that project

He's asking the other dude to ditch his team for him

That muthafucker

Seriously he's such an asshole

Shame on you fucker.

What goes around comes around karma is gonna bite you in the arse

Worst part is, there's only 2 days until the project dateline

 But Z finally found a team last minute 

I'm not saying that Z is a poor victim in this

But B is live example of the people you shouldn't team up with

Or in this case,

Befriend with.

Ugh sometimes when I see him in the same lecture room I just wanna punch him in the stomach for being such a dick

Okay that's all the cuss word I'll use

To calm my readers and myself down

Here's a cute picture ehehehe :D

Easter mode on!

That's all for this post and I'm thinking of a good title for this post

Hmm... I have no idea what to put tho

I'll figure something out right after I grab a snack lol!

Buhhh-byeee ❤

XOXOXOXOXO
