This post is a little late, but there is still 2 more to go and 2 days more to study for material science. I shall not be slack and chiong finish it. Hmm, so my resolution is to finish mugging all the chapters by today. Shall spend the next 2 days doing past year papers.
For the first time in probably 2 weeks, I have slept 10 hours straight. Feels damn shiok. Ok although I did wake up abt 3 times, but each time i wake up is after the completion of a dream. I guess that means that i had very good rest? I went through the rem cycles, entered deep sleep and then wake up again. Sounds like a super good sleep habit? I wonder is this better or a total sleep like a log throughout type is better.
Now for the description of the dreams before i forget them HAHA.
The first 1 was super violent. This house was terrorised by an exorcist who was extorting money from them by making ghosts appear in the house, and thus they were unable to live in peace. So some 5 people came to help and we surrounded this guy. From then on, its totally whacking him. Out came the crowbar, slapping, stomping.. wah R21 for violence. But he doesn't get injured and instead become smaller each time he supposedly "died". So the whacking continued in as much variety of styles as i could remember and then i woke up sweating somemore.. So surreal haha!
The 2nd 1 was sort of like me being in an ice-age rpg. But this time is about my secondary sch class. The class started super late and yet the black board is still full of writing by the previous teacher, so it took a lot of effort to wipe the board clean. I also don't know why it started in this setting, nor the significance of the writings on the board, which seems to be the things that is about to happen for the subject throughout the year. As a secondary school class, it was as rowdy as you would expect.
After leaving school, which was built into a glacier, huge ice castle beside a lake, we would have to walk across the natural bridge across the lake to go somewhere else. That was when an ice shelf collapsed and we ran towards the part of the bridge with a shelter to shield ourselves from the incoming wave. Many people were washed away by the "tsunami" wow.. totally RPG setting lolz.
Cannot remember the 3rd 1 although it is the most recent.
Material science... Life science... I will find the effort to finish the 2 of you!
CAN'T WAIT FOR THE EXAM TO END!

2 down 3 more to go..
Physics paper is tomorrow... SIANS
Why the preparation that i have done for the past 5 days seems so poor? Doesn't even feel like I can do any questions in the past year papers.
Haiz.. but I shall not seal my fate so early. There is still a long road ahead and I am sure that I can go through this with a calm mind.
Very tired, tired of mugging, tired of looking at questions, tired of doing notes and papers. I want a fuss free holiday... Don't mug so hard leh, I'm encountering a prisoners dilemma. Everyone else also don't mug so hard leh HAHA.

The transition from encouragements to reserving seats
With the amazing capabilities of my friends, they have come out with an individual logo for each of us. I thought that my blog already had a picture where there is a wheelchair icon? I can't believe that now, i'm part of the old man, pregnant lady, or parent with a young child category. This is suppose to help us to "reserve" seats in the reading room for whatever reason.
However, i shall not complain abt the innovation that went though to even make this possible. I think the person who first made this for the public transport really portrayed what needs to be shown to people. Absolutely I-D-I-O-T PROOF. So thanks mr POK for the surprises again.

Exam stress
What is common for this exam with the A level exams? The same feeling of guilt that claims that i could have prepared more for this. But could I have really prepared better for this? I would be tempted to answer yes, but upon further deliberation, I think that the improvement would be rather miniscule.
The level of preparation for this exam, is much worse than that of special term, where I had all the time to focus on one subject. This time, there is just so much more that I do not understand despite doing my tutorials and finally, they are time consuming. I would very much want to have 72 hour days to enable me to do the impossible!
However, does it mean that I would have prepared better? Surprisingly, I couldn't provide a resounding yes. I probably would have tried to minimise time wastage, but to replace the amount of fun I am enjoying would be impossible. There is so much more to do, but there is not much heart to do.
Pushing on towards the better times...

Chimology theories
There are so many damn theories about the affairs of the hearts and yet, none can really apply to everyone all the time. Humans are just so complicated that one can never totally understand another. LOLZ even i don't totally understand myself, how to understand the others?
However, I have some theories that might just apply.
1. The old curry puff theory (credits to prof Fong)
Some analogy linked to the sales of curry puff which was surprisingly linked to old chang kee. People always demand new stuff which are hot from the oven, especially food. Hence, it is not surprising that when you see a lone curry puff left on the tray, you would wait for a new batch to come and select from there! This means that the poor old curry puff is obscured from view and forgotten.
Ok now here is the optimistic view, mingling around the new curry puff, the old curry puff gets a new lease of life and a second chance, warmed up by the new curry puffs and becomes platable again. Albeit not as fresh, but still edible. Therefore, I feel that as long as you are mingling with people and making new friends, there will never be a chao seng curry puff.
2. People will not join a new group of unisex friends unless they have a common interest (e.g. sports, food, studies) or a romantic interest with someone inside even though they might not end up together.
The inital romantic interest might not lead on to them being couples later, but still it is a starting point for the formation of friendships and ultimately even best friends. Of course, it is also due to common interests that lead one to understand the other better, such that an interest may develop.
This theory has a loophole, as there are also people who makes friends purely for companionship. Whereby you only see the other as a friend from the start, with no romantic interest. However, this companion usually becomes a great friend as you can only ever share the secrets with this companion and not the others in the group if you have romantic interest with the others from the start. This is kinda sad for the companion though, as the more secrets you share, it might lead to a development in interest and lead to a 1-sided interest.
3. When shit is stirred between a guy and a girl, and they guy does not dislike the girl, he will tend to notice her more and may eventually develop a romantic interest. However, if there is a dislike in the first place, the shit stirring will be detrimental to the relationship and eventually even drive them apart. ( credits to Huangs )
This is especially true and from the various case studies that we have seen and I have seen. As shit stirring can be the initation required to get things going. It can get you to start noticing the other person and discover potentially nice things about the person when you never did notice in the past.
However, it can also be detrimental when either party starts to get irritated. When people are irritated, they will tend to ignore everything and even focus on the negative comments. This drives people apart and ultimately even end the friendship.
4. It is irresponsible to be kind to everyone
When you are too kind to everyone, it can be misleading to an individual. Initially, the individual might think that there is something going on. However, when comparing oneself to the others, they realise that they are receiving the same treatment as everyone.
Well, with time all misunderstandings will clear up, but a person with this character will most likely remain an old curry puff because people become frustrated when someone is misleading. Who can confirm the reason behind your actions? Romantic or friendly?
However, i feel such people makes great friends because their small little actions, damn BHB or acting dumb just makes your day. Laughter is the best medicine.
I guess there will be more theories next time, but this is just a few that i remembered and did some analysis on. BACK TO MUGGING!

WTH X1000
I can't believe that i just screwed up my physics test. The questions were so simple and yet i cannot get the answers. WTH elastic COLLISION how can i forget to consider its relevance in the question. If i dunno how to do due to wrong concept that requires visualisation i still can take it but wth a 2 step question?
NVM, a failure is the mother of all successes. Mug on..

Its before exams, and suddenly i had an urge to update
Exam starts on nov, 19 and for some reason, i am still typing this post here. I think noone is reading my blog now already and probably will be so for quite some time.
If i dun type something i think this blog will really seh kor already LOL.
But anyways, I have finally completed the damn report, spending well over 12 hours trying to complete it. WTH! 1AU leh why so mafan. I hope that i can score it well. A+ Lagi BEST!
Running through the past 3 months in NTU, there were many ups and downs. There were times when it was embarassing. There were times it was fun beyond comparison to anything i had done before. There were times I felt extrememely blessed, but there were also many more times that mood hit rock bottom too.
I won't deny that hall life is great, but what comes with more interaction people is that their actions tend to affect your day more. I made more friends, but also realised who are the friends that you can really count on. Who are those that you can give them all and they just absorb. Who are those that you give and they return more than you give. But all in all, it still comes down to mugging. If you don't score, you are ShingzzED. There are countless distractions, but there is one or 2 that affects me the most.
FORTUNATELY, i have the spas and a great buddy that I by chance knew here and we support one another.. well shall leave it till next time to write more... maybe shall link some facebook stuff here.
