NUS admin sux

firstly, shall complain abt NUS admin again... think every sem something must happen to make me hate them over and over again... maybe only last sem was alright as i went on IA... but now... haiz... everything sux big time again...

the stupid dept did not offer any electives that i have to take to graduate... everything's offered only next sem... then they force us to take some chemical engineering module which we do not have much foundation on... might as well give me a F grade straight... luckily there are nice ppl in the class who argued, complained and highlighted our misery to the dept head and they finally offered us some modules to take... BUT they are postgraduates modules... no choice... die die have to take or else how to graduate... that simply means my lessons will end only at 2100 on 2 days of the week... and regina simply commented that they must not be easy or else everyone can be postgrad... haiz...

Celebrations @ Marina SUX!!!

just back from the celebrations at marina... was there to support mudpie as he has a store in the local brands village... what a sucky experience... will never go to these type of celebrations anymore...

it's located at one ulu part of s'pore which most of us will only think of steamboat and class gatherings... yesh... that's marina south... the bus to the event was packed... and i have to walk a great deal to find mudpie (at the food village)... nvm... everything's fine... walked ard and even managed to get a gym ball at a cheap price... and which mudpie paid for it... so okie... ventured around to arts village and the other parts... as it was near 8, eileen suggested that we stayed to watch the fireworks since we were there...

the fireworks was nice... created by the Portugal team... lasted more than 10 min i think... and my poor phone just do not have enuff memory for the whole thing... only managed to take like more than 6 min... but then after everything's over, the part of the small island that they placed the fireworks actually caught fire... like a good 3 patches of them... wonder if they do anything to put out the fire... if not really forest fire le...

after everything, wanted to get out of the place... went to the area with the steamboats thinking that there might be bus service at that area... BUT... they actually suspend the use of those bus stops at that area... in the end have to walk back to the main area to take bus... after walking for a good 5 minutes... we (me and eileen) finally reached the bus stop but there's simply too many ppl... eileen commented that she finally understood why stampedes in india can actually be dangerous... haiz....

we gave up... thinking of walking to the mrt station instead... the journey was long and there were many ppl walking... haiz... think we walked for a good 20 to 30 min... really good exercise... and my legs are super duper tired... saw xiaxue and her guy friend (think shld be weili bah...) while walking to the mrt station... what caught my eye was her outfit (a dress) and her bag (think is a gucci bag if i'm not wrong... and her bag's strap was actually dragging on the floor)... realised she's really vertically challenged... think shld be ard seirye's height or even shorter... hmmm... why her outfit caught my eye was becos what she wore was totally not suitable for walking...

reached mrt station... a lot of ppl... finally reached home and which mudpie was already home and sleeping... he had the luxury of ppl chauffering him back home since his boss has the entry pass to enter with his vehicle... how nice...

yah... forgot to comment that the whole celebrations area has got a lot of donations stuff... so me and eileen actually donated quite an amt... think s'poreans must be rich... or else why everywhere also asking for donations...

another thing was the sucky coordination and planning of the ndp committee doing the celebration@marina... cos they actually wanted the event to be a park and ride thingy... but then the transport system was super sucky and totally unable to accomodate so many people... haiz... sucky planning...

realised pumping air into the gym ball is an exercise itself... used so much energy just to pump enuff air into the ball... but still think it is not firm enuff... haiz... think lele must be very happy after seeing the ball....

school will start on monday... me still in holiday mood... die...
