First Day Jitters

I'm breaking my solemn promise to stay away from blogging and concentrate on my studying but I have a gnawing urge to just blabber away and type whatever that comes to my mind. I have succumbed to the temptation. But at least I'm not giving up the mugging. Just taking this as a teeny break away from being a total nerd.

Just finished my first paper today and it was okay. I think. The 2.5 hours in the exam hall passed like a blurry moment. It went by so fast I almost panicked when I saw that time was going to be up in 15 minutes and I still hadn't completed my paper.

There's a weird sense of loss now that I've completed BS 206. I know it's crazy but I will miss having my mailbox flooded with emails from JT (otherwise known as my favourite lecturer this sem. haha) - with his sharp comments like "I will not answer ridiculous questions like these again." Will not miss the lame questions that some students send though. Some of them are really rubbish, I can see where his frustrations and irritation come from.

What's more crazy is that I actually enjoyed studying for this subject (okay just shoot me). Although it was quite a struggle getting started and having to face formulas after formulas, diagrams after diagrams, whenever I manage to fully understand and grasp a concept in this module in BIOPHYSICS, I experience an inexplicit sense of achievement and pride. Haha... I'm such a weirdo.

Anyway, today's really not a good exam day. Audrey-Ann got involved in a car accident on her way to school and almost couldn't make it in time but she was really lucky that a STRANGER who was on his way to work at CLEMENTI actually stopped by and answered to her flagging for help along the highway. This super nice person gave her a lift all the way to NTU!! I'm amazed that such nice people DO exist in sunny Singapore! (But of course, this occured only after cars upon cars, and taxis upon taxis just zoomed past without even bothering to slow down to see if help was needed).

I WAS heartened by this man's kind deed, but a bunch of dodos in the library had to spoil it for me. I really don't want to talk about the boisterous group of inconsiderate people who are hogging the tables in the library when they're not even studying. I just hope someone else gets so irritated with them and throws a slipper or something right smack at them. Theresa was so pissed off she wanted to fling her sng buay seeds at them. But good thing she didn't. Or we could have been banned from coming to the library. Ever.

Then there's the earth-shaking, ground breaking, world-spinning news that...
TREVOR JALLA JUST GOT MARRIED.

Trevor who?

Trevor from Ublues!!! (second from left)

Everyone who knows me well enough will know that when I first saw him, I fell in love....

....... with blues.

Okay, it should be "When I first heard him sing..."

Anyway, I'm happy that he's found his soulmate. It's not easy for musicians to settle down as they tend to be very free-spirited people and go wherever music takes them.

And I'm taking this 'devastating' news surprisingly well... maybe it's because I have a new love interest?

Not going to let the cat out of the bag yet. I will only give one clue. His name starts with a J. No prizes for the correct guess! =)
