Cui...
Eye bags are appearing and pimples are popping. Damn~ One year away from the club has caused my body to be unconditioned to such treatment le~ And I've finally realized that my "time machine" has no effect on my fyp which I have been neglecting the past 2 weeks~ Cham la...but what can I do? Got another 50 page report to write for my specialization module lei! X_X Damn...aero specialisation module is rlly quite shitty and has no value-add~ Maybe the second project will be better though...
And ahhhh this week's Dhoppers is cancelled again coz its a public holiday!! Wa all this disruption is really spoiling the momentum of the classes. The last lesson was such a pain coz my body's inertia had returned after two weeks of inactivity and now we have to stop for another week again. Sian!! I can't even recall the last two dances le T_T
Lol my student will be having his exams this wed~ Really worried for him coz his fundamentals aren't really very strong. Tomorrow's lesson will be his last chance for revision, so really hope he uses it to clarify any doubts he may have. Hahaha I suppose as much as I complain about having to travel to and fro to his place so frequently which really hampers my plans for the day, I've grown quite attached to him and I really hope he does well for his exams. Jiayou ah Ryan!
Hmmm my birthday is around the corner again. Another year has passed~ Damn can't believe I'm 24 already~ Soon I'll be joining the labour force and hopefully doing something that I'm interested in. Teaching? Engineering? Hmmm...still dunno~ =S
Zzzz this is a super random post of things that just happened to creep into my head. Lol! Life is rlly such a happy mess =P

I like it when it rains =)
Music humming softly in my ears. The soft orange hues of the street lights illuminating the rain drops that pass their way. Cars zipping by and splashing puddles into an evanescent flower of cascading droplets. Pedestrians walking cautiously by their sides, sheltered by their umbrellas. Some by themselves, with their heads bent low and meandering around obstacles in their way. Others in pairs, hugging each other in warm embrace under their tiny little space.
Walking in the rain without a care in the world.
And the whole world just suddenly seems so peaceful~

"Children grow up when they start asking questions that have answers to them."For the time being, Happy Children's Day~ =)
Waa super sian~ my original post didnt get save coz i got logged out of my account! grrr technology really is the bane of my existence sometimes. can really feel the inconveniences it brings nowadays too coz sending out an email blast to the student population can be so troublesome la! Have to consider so much formatting and browser compatibility issues to ensure that the mail looks decent enough to be sent out. Wish i could jus convert everyone's default browser to IE to make my life easier -.-
Anyway! Shall do a chop-chop summary of what has happenened lately. Cleaned the clubroom and exterminated every inch of bacteria in there, although i think they're slowly creeping back again. Attended a great appreciation dinner and wore a great suit and tie courtesy of jq who very kindly lent it to me! Almost lost my camera after the event but a super super kind taxi uncle returned it back to me after i made a lost report to all the taxi companies in singapore coz i couldnt remember which cab i took @_@. Desperately trying to motivate myself to work hard for my projects (fyp, specialisation mod, fna, reporting stats) although inertia is super high! But focusing more on my upcoming midterm this friday which i hope i wun buang!
WHEW~ Zzzz time waits for no matt indeed~ X_X back to revision! wish me luck everyone! =D
Oh ya! Suddenly remembered that during the dinner (i sat beside prof christopher yap and prof chew "little martian"!), prof yap mentioned to me about pursuing grad studies abroad~ Man the thought of that really sounds very appealing lar. been home-bound for too long le~ should really get out of singapore for a while and immerse myself into some foreign culture! waaa shall really give this some thought...AFTER my mid-terms!!!! =P

Whoa I miss my room so much~ Finally back home and isolated in the comfort of my small little bedroom with the air-conditoner switched on and a blanket wrapped around me to keep me nice and snug. Lol the last week was a super hectic week lar, going to school daily and staying back till late at night to get my work done and settle club admin stuffs. And the week ended with our 32nd MC retreat which was hosted by the 31st MC. The 31st really did a very good job, ensuring that we were kept well fed with pizzas and icecream (of which I proudly abstained from consuming!) along with meaningful activities to keep our brain juices working. Good job guys! I think the 32nd learnt a lot from this short retreat, allowing us to get to know each other better too. Pity we couldn't have full strength the whole time but I guess that's the way things are since we all have our own personal commitments outside =)
Sometimes I really still think I'm crazy to re-join the club in my final year. Everyone is focusing on their fyps and last few modules and yet here I am adding more commitments to my already heavy schedule. Giving tuition 3 times a week is really setting its toil on me too but I can't drop it now since my student will be having his exams soon. Everyone probably thinks I'm crazy too~ But man...I guess I'm really a sentimental person at heart. Most of my uni life was spent in the club and there're so much feelings attached to it which mean a lot to me. And ya...that's why it was so hard for me to refuse when I was asked if I wanted to come back one more time to help the club. But yet, when I approached other friends of mine to run for the club, it was so hard to convince them to come back and help. Man...are the people around me too pragmatic? Or am I the crazy one? I used to always think that being rationale and logical was the best way to approach most matters coz emotions tend to blind us from bigger issues. But now I realise that if we devoid ourselves of such emotions, we can't attach ourselves to the things around us~
Are the people around me too practical or am I being overly-emotional? Hmmm...I'm not too sure about this either~ I guess all that matters now is that I'm happy with this crazy choice I made. No more regrets and stop calling me crazy. Just give me encouragement and strength to persevere on for the club one last time~ =)
