This is the last week of preparations for my last exams! Must be motivated!!
Ah...I have been indulging myself in drama serials and music too much again. What a bad time to do this! I need to study for my exams, especially whereby I have so many readings to catch up with but I am VERY distracted by a couple of drama serials and songs. I find it very tough to stop watching a drama serial halfway, always wanting to continue with the next episode. It's an addiction!!
Anyway, let me post some overdued photos. These were taken on my last meeting with PK, Pris and Rach, before starting for exam preparation. Had a sweet evening with the gals and shared many good laughs with dearest PK.

Oh man! Did not get the tickets again!! This time round, Agnes's friend tried helping us to get the tickets but could not get it. The website was jammed with so many users and he went to an outlet but the queue was crazy. Till now, 2 hours after it has opened for sales, the website is still jammed! Ah!! Can't go again!! :(

I was never a fan of online shopping but soon I will be.
I only did online shopping a couple of times and those were because the items are from overseas and hence, I had to do online shopping. I always preferred to see and touch the real things before I buy. I did not trust items online as I always think that there is a risk that they may not turn out like what they appeared online. The quality may be inferior and the sizes may not fit.
However, I chanced upon this website whereby I bought a birthday present for my friend a few months back. Ever since I knew of that website, I have started shopping online! The items arrive real fast! Most of the sellers send their items like immediately after they receive your purchase and within 2-3 days I get them! Quality not bad too!
But of course I will still like offline shopping! :p

Yesterday was the last day of classes for my entire life!
On the way to school, I was feeling abit emo about it. I love sch! Or rather, I love uni's life!!
Reasons:
For my entire study endeavour in uni, I always have less than 5 days of classes! Only uni life allows me to have so much free time! I love the flexibility of uni classes too! The flexibility allows me to skip classes and avoid doing readings (haha I am very much guilty of these bad practices).
I have also learnt to be more aware and critical of issues happening around me. I enjoy studying Soci. Always studying familiar things making it unfamiliar. Even doing essay assignments can be enjoyable, even though I am always in a rush to finish up.
Life in uni will not be as fun as it is without good friends! I am thankful that I have made alot of good friends in uni! These friends have made my uni life much more interesting and memorable! Elders gang, Soci gals, AFTH friends, Interns and Suzhou chums!! These friendship bonds are very valuable and hopefully will last for years to come.
But of course, it is not all a bed of roses. I dislike FYP and exams. But all in all, the rewards have outweighed the costs. I will miss uni's life very much!!
Anyway, yesterday we had a nice surprise end to our last tutorial class. One of our tutorial mates had a birthday surprise from her friends. It was very cool! They even treated all of us in the tutorial to free donuts! Cecilia, my Monopoly Deal star ally, gave us a small gift too!
The last class of my school life ended on a sweet and happy note!

So sad!! I want to go to Jay Chou's concert!!
This morning I went to buy the tickets half hour before the counter opens and yet I did not managed to get the tickets at all! Irritating! :(
When I reached, there were about 20 people in the queue before me. I started to panic but like what Agnes said, there are more than 20 tickets so should be can buy. But! The first person in the queue bought like 20 plus tickets and after the 2nd person bought 4 tickets, everything became sold out!!
My heart sank when I heard the salesgirl shouted ALL TICKETS SOLD OUT!
It's so crazy! There were easily 60 people in the queue and yet only 2 people managed to buy only!
A couple in front of me in the queue tried all ways to buy the tickets but failed. They kept calling sistic hotline and even brought a laptop to book tickets online but all means failed them.
Everytime when got news that Jay Chou is coming for concert I get so happy and excited and yet EVERYTIME my hopes were dashed. It always get sold out like once it's out.
Haiz.........

Yup, I have started driving my Dad's old gold car. But only for less than an hour! Today, I ventured onto PIE and I somehow lost the confidence in my driving. Okie, I know many of you do not have confidence in my driving :p Before I got my license, I wanted so much to drive and would always persuade my Dad to let me drive (only succeeded a few times) but now that I am qualified to drive, I start turning down offers from my Dad. Irony.
It was a dream come true when I saw the word "Passed"! And I have 8 points only!! (Haha let me be proud for a while lah :p)
After passing my driving test, I went for a celebratory lunch with Andy and Ben. We walked into this Thai restaurant that served quite good food. It was a pleasant surprise that it is an award-winning restaurant and yet the prices are reasonable.
After lunch, we went to sing and Denise, the karaoke queen, came to join us too. It's really cheap to sing now sicne there is members' special. But it is only till end of April :(. We even made a surprise for QB. Shall not reveal it here since I have not uploaded it. Ended the day with Seet joining us for dinner. As usual, Seet always make me laugh for no particular reason.
I must thank Dajieda so much for giving me the probation plate!! She wanted to give it to me during my first attempt but too bad I failed. Now, finally I have passed and she gave it to me. I still remember that she went searching for this plate made by 3M and it was not an easy search. I met her for breakfast and although time was short, I enjoyed myself and had alot of good laughs from her. Don't worry Dajieda, I will practise driving and be careful even though I have passed.
I met up with friends from elders for steamboat dinner too. We went to our usual Chongqing steamboat and sat at the same table again! Haha think we have been there like 5 times already? Every time we were allocated to the same table! Guess it's because our group is quite large. Steamboat buffet + delicious desserts + fun Daytona races made it a great evening.

Today is one of my happiest day in recent weeks!! Reason: Passed driving test!!
I am ssssoooooooo happy!! So happy to the extent that I almost cried tears of joy!
Haha what an irony...I cried when I had failed and now that I have passed I almost cried once more! While taking the test, I thought I would have failed again. It was such a pleasant surprise when I heard that I have passed.
This is something that I have been working hard for the past 8 months. But frankly speaking, I enjoyed the whole process ALOT. The only ugly spot was when I failed my first attempt. That had discouraged me and I somehow lost interest in driving. However, soon after, my interest in driving was reignited again.
Now that I am tired after all the excitement and emotional ride that I had today, I start to wonder how will it be like driving on the road. No more instructors by my side to help me correct my steering technique and giving me advices. I have to be independent and make my own judgements. No more simple "turn left, make u-turn ahead" directions anymore too.
A few years back, I would never have thought that I can drive. Driving seems to be something reserved for others. Driving a car was something too huge for me to handle. But now, I am going to make it part of my daily life. Hopefully, I can handle it well.
