I'M HOME!!!!

I'm HOME!!!!!finally......

took the 18th flight home from Brisbane......I had to wake up at 430am to get ready as the airport express is scheduled to arrive at 615am.....the journey to the airport wasn't exactly smooth......the road's kinda bumpy.....finally arrived at the airport at about 720am.......met up with lawrence to check in our luggages.....after checking in,we went for breakfast.......saw the xmss's band at airport...perhaps they had a performance somewhere in brissy....

the journey back to sg was boring....i can't be bothered to even watch the movies....end up listening to my mini.......for some weird reason,I was suffering from plane sickness.....this seldom happen to me....maybe its because of the breakfast.....lawrence was so afraid that I'd vomit....haha....I only managed to eat half the portion of my food....didn't even take the second meal as I don't really want to end up puking.......

though the plane was full......there's hardly any people at the customs.....we managed to cross the customs and collect our luggages within 20minutes......

on Sunday,I left for church service at 930am......end up being the pianist.....played quite badly even though I had practised for a couple of hours on saturday......after service, went to practise for yf's song item.......after that,we went to katong to eat the famous laksa.......then headed to vivo city.....didn't had a good experience there as it was too crowded......

I went back to church at about 545pm as my mum was there.....I continued to play on the piano for another hour.......headed home at about 730pm....I really missed my piano.......been playing alot since I got home on saturday....how I wish I have a piano at australia........

Exam's over!!!!

Exam's finally over....well....it was over on 6th November......just that I took a long time to put up this post......I was happy that my exam finished so quickly......but its kinda weird....cos all of my friends are still having exams & I'm the only one who's exam free now.......oh well.....I suffered throughout the whole semester...so I guess its ok for me to finish my exam so early......

I was basically rotting on tuesday.......didn't know what to do.......and my internet got shaped again.....so its kinda frustrating to come online these days.....went out with Jade, Aby & Taro to Indro on Wednesday to meet up with Mel, Jeannette & Esther...We only managed to shop for about 1 hour cos its near closing hours.....but we all managed to get what we want....We also had a great time at the pet shop....for some reason the puppies there started dancing...there're at least 6 puppies dancing.....all the onlookers were amazed.....Jade even took pictures (or is it video) of them....

we left Indro at about 6pm and had dinner at "7-8".......its a nice & cosy eating place....the food's super delicious......I hope to go there again before I go back to Singapore....

after at least 2 months, I've finally started to play sports again......I used to play soccer with the guys twice a week.....but I got too busy with my assignments & didn't join them.........it all started when Taro was looking at tennis racquets at Indro and asking whether he should invest in 1.......then we decided to play tennis on thursday......we managed to book the court from 230 - 430.......but it started raining at 315pm....we had no choice but to stop playing......its a good thing that we managed to get a refund.......the rain stopped at about 4pm and we started playing again....this time round we just hit the ball against the wall....didn't really want to book the court again....

the guys got home at about 515pm (from their exam) and we had a short soccer game.....it was pretty fun.....I feel that my reflexes become slower after stopping for so long......think I really need to exercise regularly.......we had dinner at Jun's before sending SJ off at the airport......after that, we had coffee at Milton and finally reached home at about 130am........

today, we played tennis at uni again......went up to uni at about 345pm today....realised UQ Sport's closed on fridays........this means we can't book the court........so sad.......we approached the security guard, hoping that he can open the gate.....but he said he can't do that......we had no choice but to hit against the wall again........an UQ staff saw us playing and asked why didn't we play on the tennis court....so we told her our situation and guess what???she actually went to look for the security guard and asked him to open the gate for us.......woohoo......we managed to use the court for free.......really thankful to that UQ staff.....she's so nice!!!!!!!!!!

we had a great time of workout......looking forward to play tennis soon........wow...didn't realise its such a long post....think I'll stop soon......I'll be going down to Goldcoast tomorrow......looking forward to eat at Yamasakura......

8 more days till I reach home......can't wait anymore!!!!!

I got another crazy Lecturer!!!!

I seriously don't know what my lecturers are thinking......don't know why they like to finish marking our assignments in such a short time.....I just submitted my EVNT3002 assignment on last friday and today she released the marks on Blackboard.......my lecturers seriously have no life siah......spent the whole weekend marking our assignments........

EVNT3002 - a course which I'm afraid of......though its not as difficult as MGTS3301, but the lecturer is a tough marker......out of the 3 assignments.....2 of them have class averages of less than 65%.....its not like we don't put in effort.....we just don't know what she wants......she doesn't teach much in class (we had presentations every week or excursions).......she doesn't tell us much about the assignments......she gave us report templates which she doesn't mark accordingly to it.......

Jaslyn and I were super demoralised when we saw the results for our bid presentation & document.......we followed accordingly to her guideline....but on her marking sheet, she said we could leave out certain information.......we had a few goods here and there....but our marks don't reflect them.......

was so nervous when I checked our results on blackboard......cos we don't want just a passing grade.....we wanted higher.......when I saw our marks.....I was really relieved.......we've gotten 35/50 (though that's not what we usually get for other courses).....but its not too bad, considering its sort of a last minute job + being marked by megan.......not sure if we've been penalised for submitting late.....but at least we've gotten a credit for this course..........

I really had to thank Jaslyn for finding all the relevant information despite her tight schedule......and also tahaning all my shit...haha.....hopefully we'll get a chance to work together again next sem.....hang in there for your biz law lah......
