I am getting nervous over it once again!! Hopefully history won't repeat!! I am trying hard to remind myself of Dajieda's advice - Don't have expectations.
Ah!!! Think tonight will be a sleepless night!

I had a presentation yesterday and luckily it went alright. It was so nerve-wrecking! We had prepared for it the whole week (I mean it) and yet I wasn't very confident about it. I guess it's because the benchmark has been set high by previous presenters and hence, we have high demands of ourselves. Luckily it's over! But one more presentation to go again~
By the way, there's sad news coming from Suju. Hangeng, the Chinese member of the group has left the group. He has some disputes about his contract and is now pursuing solo career. Haiz so disappointing.

I have watched a HongKong movie recently called Another Pandora's Box and it's super hilarious and brainless. I had a good laugh!
But sad to say, presentations and write-ups are dampening my mood. Haiz, post-FYP is not equal to freedom how sad! :(
My happiness after FYP was short-lived. I have to worry and think hard for my presentation this coming friday. It's a tough presentation! After this is over, I have another presentation next week and a write-up to submit in the same week! By the time all these presentations and write-ups are over, it's time to study for exams. What a sem!!
Luckily I have meet-ups with friends to de-stress and music to entertain me! I think that I am fast becoming a super junior fan! Oh and driving is one of my pleasures too! Haha I am looking forward to driving classes once again! Hopefully I can keep my hopes and excitement in check so that history won't repeat.
The higher your hopes are, the greater your disappointment will be. I am trying HARD to remind myself this!

I have been waiting for this day!!
Finally I bade goodbye to FYP!!
I don't care whether can I get an A for it or just a D for it. I am just satisfied and proud that I have done it! Writing a 10,000 (or rather mine was just 8,500) research paper had always been thought as a mission impossible for me. I always have trouble writing enough words to reach the word limit (even now for FYP :p). I used to lament "Wah, 3000 words assignment how to do?". Now, that is nothing!
Wahaha that day Pei Kiat and I were talking over SMS and we said that we will miss FYP and better "enjoy" it while we can. I think I will miss it after I graduate. Really memorable in terms of academic work.
After submitting our hard work, Esther, Denise and I could not wait to show our disgust with it! Here's the proof!
After school, I went for a drama skit with Seet, EK and Andy that Seet's bro acted in. It was great! I was surprised and amused by their terrific acting skills. What surprises me most was that the directors are all around our age! I admire their passion for drama!

Countdown to the end of my misery! 5 days!!
I am so happy that FYP is finally coming to an end! This afternoon I met up with my prof to discuss about my FIRST draft (ya abit too late)and luckily not many big changes to do. I just want to get it over and done with!
Over the weekend, I went to Kukup with my family and relatives. It was a great trip! This is our second time to charter a bus to Malaysia together. We stayed a night at a chalet with hotel-styled rooms and it was carefree!
We ate aaaaaaaalot of seafood and gambled most of the time! Too bad I was lousy at MJ :( We even set fireworks and put off a total of 6 Kong Ming laterns! This was the second time setting off the lanterns for me as I did it at Sentosa during Ching's birthday. Haha but still I was very excited! This time round, if it fails, it will go directly to the sea and I had a scare at first as it was going downwards before our shouts "brought" it upwards. It was fun!

Finally I have submitted my 1st draft of FYP!! Woohoo!! A super huge load off my mind!! Now I feel so much lighter...seriously!
Right after I was done with my FYP, I met up with clique for dinner and movie. We watched the 3D version of Alice in Wonderland and I think it's good. Considering that it could keep me awake throughout 110mins even though I was tired.
I saw a video clip yesterday that was taken during the CNY celebrations that elders had about 2 weeks back. I do not know how to post the video here cos it's on FB. While watching the video, I had a heart-warming feeling. The elderly had enjoyed themselves and the smiles on their faces really mean alot. It makes all the time spent worthwhile.
Alright, ending off with several photos to mark my memories this week.

I watched a performance by super juniors on tv recently and I started searching for their videos on youtube. See what I found! It's a dance item by prison inmates to the music of Sorry Sorry! Wow what can I say about super junior's popularity!!

Help! I need an inspiration badly!! Desperately!!
Oh man! It's going to be the end of recess week and yet I am still at 1000 words only!! How am I going to submit 10,000 words by start of school?!
I have already dedicated the whole week to this report and yet not much progress...sian.
But still thks to friends who make me feel that I am not alone in this! Thks to Dajie and Dajieda too for suggesting studying at library otherwise I would not have gone there for literature!
"Don't push yourself too hard. Take a rest if you're really tired" - I am tired but can I afford to take a rest now?

I came across this music video by xiao zhu on mtv and I find it very sweet and fun. There are alot of guest appearances made by artistes who have helped him in one way or another over the years. Enjoy the clip!

Exactly one more month to my driving re-test...
Arh I need to resume my driving lessons again soon. Till now, I still feel abit disappointed. I am no longer excited for driving lessons. In fact, I dread the test.
Anyway, now I should not be thinking of my driving but my FYP instead! Oh man! I just dislike FYP!
Headaches faced in usual writing essay assignment x 100 = FYP!!
One thing to cheer about...iphone!!
I am enjoying the companion of my iphone everyday! There are so many games that are threatening to keep me hooked and I am always tempted to download new songs for my iphone. I should have got it earlier! :p

Wow had a great evening with Agnes at the BSB concert!
Perhaps it was FYP that was bogging me, I did not feel very excited for this concert at first. Agnes and I were still thinking of sitting down throughout the concert but the moment the music came on, we were up standing on our chairs!
Haha super high throughout! I sneaked a few rests on the chair when they showed some funny videos though.
This concert is really much better than the one they had previously. BSB danced ALOT, had dancers with them this time round and changed many outfits. Their singing was super good and dancing was super stylish!! One word to describe it all - high!!
I can't wait to go for another BSB concert with Agnes next year and also Jay Chou's one!! Arh! Pray hard that can get Jay Chou's concert tickets this time round!!
But for now, back to reality...crack my brain over FYP :(
