High and cold!
oh wad crap title. lol.
High as in i am damn high now! ponning sch tmr to go on a NYC-UN day trip! ahaha. ya la. pon sch.. mum is shocked, dad is shocked, yun oso shocked! come to think of it, i can't believe wad made me do it too! maybe cuz everyone else is doing it, den i oso 'li3 suo3 dang1 ran1' sign up together. den i realised those 'everyone else' ppl are accustomed to ponning lects in jc alr, while i am tt kind who dun pon a single lesson even on tcher's day celebration ahaha... oh well... IT'S NYC FOR A DAY FOR TWENTY BUCKS, COME ON! ahaha...
and by the way, the engineers are going to come back on fri night, go for pe on sat morning, den take a coach BACK to NYC to watch 'The Producers'! i am forgoing broadway for my psych prelims on mon kae.. :(( i am still guai and sensible kae. A+ for psych 101! go, raffles!
ok. forgive me. i told u i am high.
oh yes prelims. the engineers are celebrating 'end of prelims'. mine have started a wk before the engineers, but sorry, i will not have the honour to tell ppl "my prelims have ended!" or "sighz... prelims again!" cuz my 10 prelims have 'nicely' spread out over 10 weeks until mid nov (which is 2 weeks b4 the finals). hey it's more like class tests for me?
prelims at cornell are interesting. u see the same human traffic frequency in campus in the evening as u would see in the day. and the grading system here is that sometimes they mark on the bell shape curve, sometimes they don't. so we pray hard they don't when we get damn easy math paper, and vice versa when u get crazily hard physical chem papers haha. and the speed they mark prelim papers here amazes me! it's as though every department here have TAs who are possessed by RJ CHEM DEPARTMENT!!! some kind of unwritten rule or wad, u get back ur prelims within 4 days -- money back guarantee.
feeling damn satisfied now, cuz finished pia-ing all my work for this week (ahead of fri somemore tsk tsk) AND best of all, i have engaged in extracurricular stuff! in addition to my weekly salsa class, i went for dancesports team tryouts last night (ballroom dancing! cool!) and i was allowed to join in salsa's dance troupe's rueda casino training! dancing is so fun! n i signed up for our cornell's art musuem tour-cum- self portrait workshop this sat, cuz i decided tt even with 2 prelims next wk, i cannot afford to go back to spore without knowing wad our very own art musuem looks like inside!! but i had to forgo this free ropes course (think: ziplines n flying fox!!!) becuz the challenge course is at some ulu place i can't get to without a car. gah.
it's getting cold here................... my sophomore friends in class were like "you think it's cold
now? -silent grin-"
yes yes... it's only fall now. and winter at cornell has a whole new definition,i heard, i know... it's only when u get to this place when u appreciate the sun and hate the wind. i used to go for the shade in spore and i can't wait for cooling breezes; now once i am out of any building i scram for non-shady spots to bask in the sun! sun-less is bad. wind is horrible. wind minus sun is
lethal. and now i have to stock up on jeans and track pants cuz i will have to stop wearing my skirts by next wk. tragic.
(expect me to whine about the cold everytime i blog from now till march... )
and i am FAT. really. honestly. seriously. positive.
setting of for NYC in 3 hours time! yay! :D
