Exams are over! OVER!
After the last paper, everything was... still a blur. During exam period, everything was dis-orientated because I was studying day in day out, without much thought on what to cook/eat, wear... anything but studying. Now, it's because there's so much stuff to do, events to attend that I am literally as tired as the exam marathon time. Ok, maybe not as stressed.

Celebrated end of exams at Varsity with the bunch of peeps. Then went home and started throwing stuffs away, revision notes, books, magazines etc. Went to London yesterday with Quennezy, Angeline and Jess. Watched ‘Transformers' (FYI, it's the one movie that is out in UK FIRST before anywhere else in the world. Cant help but to watch it just so it's our turn to say, 'hey look, transformers was awesome! have you seen it? No? Oh ya, it's not out yet in your country.' Man, we are cool. Haha. Overall, london trip was fun but it burnt a hole in my bank account.

Now going to bed to get ready for my Barcelona trip with Jenny, HengYong and Aaron. Barcelona baby, here we come! Hola!

I a m s o s c r e w e d

The Finance 1 exam is bad. Bad because there wasn't enough time to do the questions. Bad because, the lecturer mistimed the exam. Bad because, my brain was stucked today. Bad because I couldnt even calculate how many days are there in a year (and I need that for my pricing calculations). Whatever the reason. I completely fumbled the whole paper. 80% of the paper was guess work. Ironically, I got 100% for the class test. That's how bad that went. The last time I felt so bad after an exam was 5 years ago, Chemistry in form 4.

I got 6% for that test.

Anyway, the worst is yet to come. I have now tonight to revise for 2 papers tomorrow. I hate the undergraduate office for timatabling the exam so close to each other. Tonight, yet again, is going to be a long night...

Exam marathon

Posted in
Today was an intensive day. Mainly because i was trying to cram last minute as much information as possible for 2 of the largest essay-based exam i have, which took placed, well, back-to-back. 2 hour exam. Each. Halfway through the second one, my hand hurts so much, my brain hurts from my attempt to squeeze out everything I remember, my stomach hurts because, well, because it completes the miserable picture of a girl trying desperately to trick the examinor to thinking that she had done her revision, just like most of everybody else in the exam hall. I am so glad the exam questions went my way again, where I got the questions i hope for. But doing them well was another question. The economic exam was unfortunately hugely disappointing. Mid sentence, i thought to myself, what the hell am I doing? but I carried on drawing random graphs to fill the sheets while trying to sort out my thoughts. 2 down and 5 to go. This is by far the worse ever timetable I have got since, well, since when they don't matter. 7 paper (constituting 70% of my whole year of education) in 5 days, including saturday. I have now decided to 'revise' my 'expectations' dowawards in hope of scaring a 2.1. F if I don't even get that.
God bless me.

Having said that, I am so happy this is not A levels. At least my life doesn't depend on it.

" As you may be aware from the local press and information on

The student has been given the antiviral treatment Tamiflu,
but has not been hospitalised, and is making a good recovery. 
This email is being circulated to all students to update you

The University is working in close co-operation with the
relevant health professionals including the Health Protection
Agency.  Together we have identified the student’s closest
contacts and they are now also being issued with Tamiflu as a
