YES! WE’VE WON!!! WE SURVIVED! Billion of cells were sacrificed and the heart malfunctioned on Friday. It was such a close shave. Shall elaborate more about it in a while, but for now, HOLIDAYS!!! Woooohooooooooooo!
And so it’s finally over. All the late night muggings and horrendously unhealthy supper that I’ve been chowing down as midnight fuel… it’s OVER! Well, sad thing is there’s going to be 7 more times of this. 7 more semesters, 7 more exams, 7! But till then, I’m ceasing ties with Ms Calculus, Mr Einstein, Mr Markonikov, Mr Keynes, Mr Ampere and Mr Maxwell. They’re nice peeps. Really. Nice people. Without them, the world wouldn’t be the way it is now. But admiration is one thing, studying their works is another. I guess the exams weren’t really fantastic, and just am keeping the toes crossed, praying for the best. Couple of my classmates were rather upset about their performance. But we’ve have consensus now – heck it, don’t think about it, enjoy the moment. WHILE IT LASTS. And that’s exactly what I’m going to do.
Now, back to my close shave encounter. The last paper for the exams was Effective Communications. A core module which many felt unnecessary. It was scheduled on Friday. And all along I thought the paper was to start at 5pm, like ALL other papers. And taking it for granted, no effort to double check the schedule was made. Just the night before the exam, Ber was asking what time was the exam. And I said “5”. Then Otts dropped a msg and asked when it was, And I said “5”. Vaguely I think Hoon asked too. and I think I said “5”. And guess what? The paper was at 2.30pm.
I seriously have to thank God for this. Somehow, at 2.15pm I called my friend to ask him questions pertaining to the subject. And just before we ended the call, SOMEHOW I asked him where he was. It’s uncharacteristic of me to ask him where he was. But SOMEHOW I did. Guess what? “I’m outside the exam hall. DUH. Paper’s at 2.30 what.”
All alarms were blasting in me. A spike of adrenaline went through, my heart was racing, my mind suffered from some sort of impact, and that all-so-familiar cold chill went down the back. A quick glance at the watch. Yes. 2.15pm. It starts at 2.30. means they’re entering the hall soon. And I’m still in my room, relaxing, in shorts and t shirt.
All thanks to the army, a quick change of clothes was inculcated in us as though it’s the best hobby we would ever have. Within 2 mins of mad rush in the room, I was on the way running like a dog with rabbis, from Hall 3 to the Audit.
Managed to make it on time and sat down before the CI gave instructions to start.
Couldn’t believe how BLUR I was. And I’m darn lucky I made that phone call and asked the right question. It was amazing. And Otts, I didn’t ‘bluff’ you. Cause I REALLY forgot to timing. Thank you for your well-wishes any way. ;)
We had dinner at MOS on Friday night and took a train back. NO, I DO NOT have a thing for waitresses. Yes, the waitress at Hog’s Breathe and Maestro were… well, attractive. But NO, I do not have a thing for waitresses. =p
Met up with Ber on Sat after her last paper (YAAY!) and we walked around Vivo. Half the world was at Vivocity that day. It was so packed that it felt like a war zone, everywhere we went. It’s a great place. Nice view from the top. We checked out St James Powerhouse, had dinner at KPT, wondering why the old couple wanted to sit in the way they sat, bought some chocolates, had some bread and drinks at ToastBox, and floated around the huge place. I seriously wonder how on earth we managed to spend like, 4hours there, walking around. Amazing. It was fun. Nonetheless. RIGHT? =)
Came back home and shared the chocolates with everyone. Only opened up the ‘biscuit’ chocolate. Almonds’ still in the fridge. Chatted with dad about work, studies and GST. He has a point in what he said. I guess, there’s always more than one perspective in things as such.
Sneaked out with Eric at 1am, and brought him for supper. That kid was SOOOOOO excited that he was bright awake and jumping about when we were out. It was fun and I wonder if he told mum or dad about it. They hadn’t spoke to me yet, so I guess it’s gonna be one of our dirty little secrets again. HAHA.
Woke up early for ball on Sunday morning, but it rained not long after. Ended up having lunch and Kopi with Raymond and Hong. He’s celebrating his POP this coming Wednesday, and I’m intending to ask him along with us to TD’s café. Any objections guys? Can? The more the merrier ya? That’s if you guys don’t mind. Yeaps. Sat at the coffee shop for 2hours, talking about so many things that I can’t exactly remember what we talked about. Somewhere along the lines…. Well, never mind.
Came back home and continued my Prison-B***k. It’s the best drama I’ve seen in my entire life. Whoever the scriptwriter was, I think he thinks too much. But he/she’s damn good at it. All the twists and turns make the mind bend and goes all awry.
Met up with Ber again and we had supper at East Coast. Didn’t wanted to disturb our beloved Ms Ang because she’s having her much dreaded CHINESE paper this coming week. All the best girl! Your well & fully planned holidays await you! Took a longer route back and we talked on the way.
There’s something you said on the way back that I’ll remember for a very long time. It’s very heartening to know that you feel that way and I believe that this is also possible between you two.
I shall now go back to my last two episodes of PB now. The presentiment of this show lures me like an ant to a candy.

I think you had fun at your little paradise of no worries. And we should go to the beach one day. You know you know? =) Haha!
And the shots look great too! You guys certainly look funny in the ‘cheek pointing’, kawaii photo. Meet up soon!

To my dear cousins, if you’re reading this, hope you guys are doing good and feeling better. Will be here if you need anything. Didn’t know that you guys have your blogs too. We’re a blogging family huh? J

Still feel something’s amiss. It just doesn’t feel right. No way of putting a finger at it. It’s bugging me like a fly buzzing round my ears.

Psych or Spanish? Business Law or Bis Ad? Mat or Env? Yes or No? True or False? Should I? Or should I not? I need answers. Soon.
