Miracle

Today while I was waiting for my laundry I went to play the piano in the music room . Then there came a guy entering the music room and took a book out . I quickly gave the piano ( keyboard ) to him ..... curtosy is my policy .... never mind , too much details already . Anyway , what happened was he heard me play the piano and wanted me to teach him piano .....

Wohoo !!!! Means I got income even in university ..... but compared to the last time I taught piano , the rate is quite low even if i convert to RM .... but who cares .... money is money ..... lol

San Xi Lin Men

After the Great Depression , suddenly I got 3 good news come 2gether ( San Xi Lin Men ) .... Yeah ....

1 ) I went to MSA ( Malaysian Something ....not sure what it is Association ) .... for Merdeka celebration . It was a blast , here , free from the government , we were allowed to talk FREELY ..... the committee presented a sketch on Malaysia ..... some of the topics included the mysterious suicide of Tan Beng Beng* , SOME building that happens to NOT have a CCTV .... omg , it was hilarious .... seeing all Malaysians again is so heart warming ....

2 ) I bought a LAPTOP !!! ... it cost me SGD999 ( the cost I tanggung myself .... I am owing my parents money ... ) ... but this means I can go online until super duper late ....previously I could only do this once in a month in my grandma's house .....

3 ) W** H** is here !!!!!!! Although our halls are miles apart .... but I still managed to meet him today . We went shopping and he got a singapore number . The number you will have to get from him la ....

Wa .... what a momentous day ...

First Day of Class

I couldn't sleep very well yesterday .... woke up like about 7am .... thank goodness it rained heavily yesterday .... or else the heat would have killed me before the lessons do .

Today is a super depressing day .... I have never been so emo throughout my life .

I tried to act smart in the morning and ended up getting lost in the campus !!!! .... got map also can get lost ... Geography A for what ??!!! .... but I still managed to find my way back for first class CBC111 (aka - fundamental chemistry) .... I read the notes yesterday and seemed like I have learnt most of them in A Levels .... I thought I was so smart when the lecturer was teaching until 5 minutes later when he asked ' Who can tell me why nitrogen exists as N2 but phosphorus exists as P4 sedangkan they all are in the same group ?' ....

I was speechless .... I never thought of that ... More than 100 nerdy brains ( except mine ) in the class and no one could answer ..... reminds me of the first day in Haslina's class .... he explained and suddenly I have so much respect for me already .... haha . The class was ok ....

Lunch was depressing . I haven't known anyone from my class and therefore ended up eating alone , but I tried to cheer myself up by treating myself a good meal - chicken chop + butter rice for only $3.50 .... about RM8.75 like that .... quite worth it right ?

After lunch was CBC113 (aka - organic chemistry ) ... the sound of it is already dreadful .... today I learned about isomerism and cycloalkane compounds .... I have no idea at all !!! Seriously , I have never felt stupider ... some more when I looked around everyone was like nodding their heads and writing notes sedangkan I just sat there like a moron .... sad ....

Next was PAP181 (aka - fundamental physics ) ..... it was a relief . They are teaching kinematics ( slightly harder than M1 , those who took FM sure can sleep .... ) ... one small good news . The board allows me to be exempted from this subject ( and CBC111 - Fundamental Chemistry ) because of my A Level .... I can still get the Academic Units (AU) for these subjects and no exam for me .... that leaves me with only 3 subjects ..... so I went to the office and register an elective - Forensic Science .... don't know whether can get or not . I also decided to not drop CBC111 because I have so much respect for the lecturer ... lol .

When I came back , my roommate , Jonas ( pronounced as Yonnas ) wasn't around . He didn't have any class today , probably had gone out . Bored .... I saw a bottle of vodka on his table and was like .....'isn't this banned within the hostel?' ... I was so depressed I felt like drinking the whole bottle but considering I have no money to pay him back I dropped the idea ....

My dinner was Instant Mee ....$0.40 ... I am on a super-saving mood .... no la ... actually quite lazy to walk to the canteen already . Then I did my laundry , I am posting this while waiting the washing machine to do its work ....

I'll probably be in front of the computer till 12am again . Need to catch up . Thank goodness weekend is coming . I need a miracle to catch up ..... Without the computer and keyboard ..... real musical keyboard which sounds nothing like piano , I don't how I am going to survive .... W** H** , you faster enrol la .... I sien la what already ....lol .

First Day in NTU ....

I arrived at Singapore at 7.00am today . We took a cab to NTU and he charged us 35% extra !!!!! ..... because it was the peak hour ..... times 2.5 ...... omg , broke la !!!

Today was a super rushy day .... thank goodness my mum knew one of the seniors' mum . She was our tour guide for 6 hours ..... We settled a lot of administration problems and Singaporeans' efficiency is too 'geng' already ..... loan was approved in 10 minutes . Bank account was done in 5 minutes . ATM card was issued in 0 second .... medical examination took only half an hour ( excluding X-ray ) ..... I got my class timetable plus all the previous lecture notes already .... now I can't say 'Malaysia Boleh' anymore ...

Anyway , something very interesting happened today .... When I reached my room and unlocked it , I saw the fan was swithced on and obviously my roommate was already there . Then I saw this 'ang mo' coming out from the nearby washroom with nothing but a piece of towel .... He looked at me with the wierdest stare .... " Is this your room ?"
"Ya," he said .
"Well , I guess I am your roommate" ....
My mum was so shocked she was asking me whether I wanted to change room or not ..... as if 'ang mo's can swallow people .... Anyway , after knowing him a bit , he turned out to be a very nice guy from Finland .... I am still trying to cope with his Finland accent ....

There you go .. my first ... really really tiring day ..... Tomorrow got class somemore .... 4 hours lecture on pure chemistry .... sob ....

NTU ... I am coming

Everything happened so suddenly ....

I still remember on Tuesday after my afternoon nap I came online and found out I got an offer from NTU . My second choice indeed ... Chemistry and Biological Chemistry , but who am I to grumble ??? Since there is not much difference from Biotechnology ( my first choice ) , I accepted the offer .

Today , I just did my passport .... WITHIN 1 hour ONLY !!! Hurray , finally , Malaysia Boleh is not just plain talk ... I couldn't believe its efficiency . Then when I called the NTU office , they said I had to be there latest by tomorrow ..... That's it la ... Graduation Night is tomorrow ... I end up giving up the award and the last chance to see my college friends ..... I have to leave tonight and reach there tomorrow morning ...

Sad .... few days ago , I never saw this coming and suddenly I'll be away from Malaysia . No Malaysian food seems to fill my stomach at all .... I just kept eating and eating ..... I couldn't sleep last night ..... so much to think about ... How I burn my time ? Sudoku .... Did I just sound like a nerd again ( which I am not ) ????

Goodbye ..... next time anyonw comes to Singapore I'll buy you a Roti Canai .... haha ..... Hopefully some of my friends can enter NTU as well ( next year also can .... )

NTU ....

Just when I think the most 'gan jiong' moment was results day , it turned out that it wasn't ....

Yesterday when I was about to take my afternoon nap , suddenly B***** Y*** called . He told me that NTU had replied .... That's it la . There was no Internet in the house . How to check ? I couldn't wait till the next day ... Did I forget to mention I was at my grandmother's house ? I called every single soul ( wait ... i don't believe in souls ... ) who applied to NTU . W** H** graciously turned down my call , he was probably at Yee Eng's house back then .... Then B***** called me again and told me few of my other friends were rejected as well .... gone la .

I asked B to check my status for me ..... there was nothing there except your application is still being processed ... What ??!!! I must check my email . I went through a lot of trouble to get myself online . Yahoo said " No mail " ..... What ??!!! .... Did they even receive my application ???

I called Wh again and thank goodness there was actually someone who hasn't received any emails .... whew .... On the next day , I called the office . They said my application was still being considered ....

The next few days I'll live in fear . Should they reject me ont this , then I'll have to wait for next year ...sob ....
