today had been some sort of whirlwind day. to an extent it was quite fun though i still can't quite believe i've actually did it. and yes i have a lot of stories to tell. i'm the intelligence unit in hall9 after all. though my satellite is limited to arnd mainly 46 & 47. :D

classes were normal as usual. went for the 203 tutorial without reading any of the readings cuz i was trying to finish the reading which i'm doing for presentation on monday. seriously i think my tutor is funny. not the good funny but the bad funny - us students laugh at him cuz he's so retarded. for example, he came in today in his ethnic garb - he's bangladesh btw - with aviator shades. like seriously?!

joked to jasmine and georgin that he wanted to avoid acknowledging the students as he doesn't want to put on his situated identity as a professor (sth which we learned during 204 lecture on wednesday. 学以致用ok!) and then there's this andrew time cuz the prof always looked to andrew, the guy who initiated the mass emailing of our batch of students to change tutorial classes before the start of school last sem.

back then i had this funny impression of him as a total geek who wants to run for soci president or sth. my impression did differ a bit from the andrew in reality (as in from what i see) when i have 2 tutorial classes with him this sem. but he's still some sort of geek i guess. he wears the same loafers which don't look suitable for his age (it looked like what my dad will wear!), but i must admit his nike jacket was damn nice.

don't get me wrong. he just happened to walk around in class to help our fellow classmates to set up the laptop presentation - he's the only guy in the class after all - almost all the time. and our dearest prof loved him to bits that he always looked at him for opinions as some form of conclusion for each presentation. even though he didn't want to really comment but he had no choice! but it was quite awesome that he can come up with something even though he didn't plan to comment. and i also got remember about the dependency theory during the tutorial today ok!

anyways. after the tutorial headed towards north spine for food. was deciding between the quad at sbs, or canA. i ended up at macs cuz i wanted to eat the hot and spicy shaker fries (even though i was totally turned off by jamie oliver's depiction of the manufactured chicken nuggets - processed meat + processed fats + some sort of flour or sth - in his documentary. the kids in the show was grossed out). met georgin and we went over to oldcanA to study. went to buy my lunch later on cuz it was still breakfast hour. finished my reading and i decided to take a nap at 12pm. when i eventually woke up, it was 1239, ie my hw111 lecture has started!

georgin was at the opposite table in a midst of discussion (we were supposed to go for the lecture. gina was there too btw but she had decided to pon the lecture). so i decided to continue napping until close to 1pm. turned behind and was surprised to find marcus and ivan sitting behind. chatted a bit before me and georgin left. oldcanA felt quite nice to study because it's windy and everything, but when i woke up at 1, the place was practically swarmed with people! bobian, it's like 1+ month to exams so everyone has started mugging! what a turn-off. i think i will be satisfied with reading room in hall.

went to leeweenam library to find a book to use as secondary source for my presentation. can't find it in ntu libraries but i found it in nus library! so recruited fangyi's help to borrow the book for me - need card to get into central library! so mafan. and i jumped into the pioneer bus which arrived within minutes after i reached the bus-stop, and off to nus i go!

but when i was on the train, fangyi texted me and said the book cannot be found on the shelf! but the catalogue said that it's available!! like WTH?!! zam disappointed and i contemplated alighting at the next stop and head back to ntu - after all, i can still do my presentation without the references.

but i didn't. instead, i alighted like 6 stops later at outram park, and off to people's park complex i go! bought koi - oolong milk tea ftw! large cup summore! and it happened to be the outlet which i bought my very first cup of koi bubble tea (and it's oolong milk tea! i always drank this except for once when i bought 梅子绿茶, which is too sour for my taste). then headed back to ntu after i found another book which was available in business library.

went there, borrowed the book (i forgot to bring my matric card but the lady there was nice to give me one chance) and headed back to hall! and here i am, typing my encounters! not going back this weekend cuz need to finish the presentation, and tomorrow night i'm going over to hq to sleep after i'm done with my stuff in hall! sunday is Heart2Heart@Launch! i'm quite nervous you know. :x


please come down to vivocity and give us your support this coming sunday!!


oh did i tell you? i'm totally crazy over this show, 就想赖着你! by ella and jerry, and it's damnnn funny! found a 知音 in yuenyin when i commented to wanyee on monday that i'm zam tired cuz i watched the vcd version on youtube until 4am and she said that yuenyin also watched! so the two of us started discussing about the storyline excitedly. i was even watching it when i was having dinner with the rest in can9 on monday lor! hahas. but stopped after monday cuz was mad busy with all the stuff to do.

things will be going back on track after monday! wt jiayou!
