The long awaited day has finally arrived!!!

Good luck to all the unfortunate people like me who starts their exam today and have to take all their exams all in this week with hardly any break! We can do it!!!

I'm not ready but I'm damn excited!! I don't care anymore. I just wanna get it over and done with!

4 more days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6 hours sleep, 12 hours study ...

6 hours sleep, 12 hours study ...

Spent 12 hours (9am - 10pm) down at level zero today studying for my exercise physiology exam with leight and mel. One of the things I missed when I was in Canada - group study with these two wonderful ppl. Like last year, it was intense! Wait, it was not exactly like last year. It was MORE intense. Brain can really explode. Ohh... eyes too! Towards the end, what we read don't even make sense. My eyes were twitching as well. Can really run around pulling my hair out. At one point, I was actually hitting my head wanting to go psycho.

The whole day was spent on ONE past paper. And no, we're not done yet. Shucks man!! Thank goodness we still have tomorrow. Not aiming high for my exams this time. Bye bye to seeing the alphabet A. Must buckle up next sem!! What makes it annoying with this paper is that none of the answers can be derived from the "bible" nor the lecture notes. It comes from readings. Readings that most of us can't be bothered doing. Thank goodness I did some and made notes orelse we'd be even more lost than we are now.

This is just my first paper. Haven't even sat for it and I'm already dying. How? Will I last till the end of this week? I'm already sick of studying, sick of trying to understand my materials. They don't make much sense. So hard to apply the theories and pull them together and apply them.

Alright, enough of complaining. Tomorrow is another long day of battling it out, going crazy and consuming more red bull, chocolate, chips, lollies, drinks .... I wonder what's for dinner tmrw. Hehehehe.. today leight shouted mel and i KFC coz we made a really wild guess that 1-day will be selling watch. Leight said if it's really a watch, he'd buy it for us. Hahaha!! When the clock striked 12, Casio watch was selling on 1-day! But yea... we were nice and said he can buy us dinner instead. Ahahahahaha!!! What are the chances man?? Lolxx!!

Kk.. sleep... In less than 6 hours i'll have to wake up and march to my battlefield again. RaWRRrR!!!

One week from now...

One week from now...

One week from now, I'd be doing some last minute packing before going off to the airport and fly down to welly!!! OoOooOO!! How exciting!!!! It's that soon!!!! I wasn't looking forward to it as much as I did last year but now... I am!!!

But first.... I still need to sit for my exams. I haven't even started. Most people are either halfway through, about to finish or already finished. RawRrRR!! Honestly, I prefer to have my exams on the first day and get them spread out. It's not nice having all the papers crammed up towards the end. It's soooo suffering!! Especially for people like me who can only score well with last minute studying and studying ahead will not really work because everything will be forgotten by then :p Yes, my memory span is very short. Haha!!

Woke up at 5 this morning as I went to bed at 12 last night. Ohh the Red Bull effect kicked in when I was asleep! Coz I woke up at 1 and I couldn't sleep till 3. Rolling on my bed trying to sleep. And yeaa.. had to wake up at 5 coz of the guilt for sleeping so early. Now I'm pretty much awake and hopefully I'll last throughout the day.

Kathmandu is having their mid-winter sale!! Ahhhh...... what should I buy? What should I buy? I deserve to buy something! I missed out on the Queen's Birthday weekend sale ... that 50% off Nike stuff at Dressmart, the $15 glassons hoodie, and probably cheap shorts from the Warehouse. I haven't been shopping for ages. But no... I think I'll just lock myself in the library like what I did on Queen's Birthday and spend the money on food and petrol instead. Save up for the road trip perhaps, since I won't be working for a month from now. Petrol prices is really killing me ... eating me.

And here's just a lil update on what's going on ... (yea.. u can see i'm procrastinating and not wanting to do my study....)

- i've started catching the bus or the train to get to uni because of the rising petrol prices

- if you haven't already known, my bro's gone.... till Feb next year. He's back in msia now and leaving for Sweden in about a month's time for his exchange. I .................... miss him

- one of the person that i really looked up to apart from my brother, is going back to msia TODAY and soon to UK for I don't know how many years! hwei gjin, i'm gna miss u! take care and i know u'll do great over there!! keep blogging and keep us update la!!

- the library is my second home now and will be till the 27th of june

- i'm rolling down domain on the 27th of june in the evening with my other half, anyone wanna join?

- lastly .... please remember this date...

11.2.88

My birthay. Hehehehe.. three years mission accomplished. Wahahahaha!! Lil Monkey, Lil Chic, Wanna Play? Yes, I've evolved into a monkey from a chick. Hopefully it can make me jump higher and move faster :p

See, Lil monkeys are cute!! (just like me :p ... and no, don't say anything and burst my bubble.. haha!!)

1 down 3 to go

1 down 3 to go

1 paper down, 3 to go. Finished my first paper yesterday by ending it with a 20% presentation. It went pretty good though i was so damn nervous coz my friends were not there, it was individual and in front of several academic staff. The Q&A part ... I nailed it due to my cheekiness in not explaining some stuff in detailed in my presentation which made them ask me more about it. Wahahahahaha!!! 2 weeks to study for 3 papers crammed up in the last week.

24th- Exercise Physiology
26th- How People Learn - Gen Ed
27th- Advanced Biomechanics

Wrote up my study plan. It's gna require a lot of determination and a no-slack attitude to accomplish it.


On another note ...

Happy belated 24th Birthday to Mr. Wacky Wiseman aka Darren who turned 24 yesterday!

May you find that light you are looking for real soon ... and you know, we're all here in Auckland praying hard for you :) See you soon in welly and no, you can't run away from me. Despite your busy-ness, you gta make time just for one dinner. Coz .... you owe me ;)


And and..it's not over yet....

There's a thing called perfect timing ....

And this definitely came in the perfect timing ...

My love that I missed out on last year...

But it came back for me this time...

The love for cheap and effective RED BULL!!

Yeaaa--yaaaaaa!!!

Good luck to all of you for the finals!!!! Together, we can do it!!

Nervous

Nervous ... Butterflies in my tummy ...

Never been in this type of situation before ...

But hey! There's always a first time for everyone ;)

completed

THE 60%

Been sleeping at 3am for the past few nights.

No sleep at all last night.

what seemed so tempting at 4am this morning

In less than 2 weeks, I finished 20 pieces of chewing gum.

Ate countless of PODS and Kit Kat bars.

Consumed a bottle of BEST BEFORE Red Bull.

Stared at over 30 journal articles over and over.

the condition of my initially tidy table in the midst of battling it out.. not so tidy anymore

All for my 60% written analysis.

And now .... I'm proud to say ...

It's COMPLETED!!! Yayyyy!!!!

Thanks to all of you who layan me when I was going crazy, waking me up during my short naps, who encouraged me to keep on going, for excusing me in not helping out in certain stuff, for understanding me ....

20% presentation is changed to this coming Monday. Got the weekend to prepare for it. Now, tonight, I plan to relax, touch no books, indulge myself in a movie. And I can't wait for some sports this weekend too! Touch no books, only balls!! Yayyy!!

I declare myself two days holiday - Friday and Saturday for now. Teeeheeee :p

Oh kill me...

Oh kill me...

I'm on 3000+ words, approx 10 pages and .... I'm not even halfway there yet. Wait, not even quarter! Friday is fast approaching. Haven't even started on the presentation. My brain isn't dry. It's just ... it's just hard to put all the information together and discuss them. Having trouble coming up with a structure. And it doesn't help by not having any results since the testing was not even carried out.

This is the reason why I'm not even gonna consider postgrad next year. If I don't reach the halfway mark by tonight, it's gonna be two all-nigthers tomorrow and thursday night. Oh I need to buy Red Bull!

Besides a cold room, my battlefield is pretty much set ...

Before...

A very very messy table ...

After ...

So clean and empty! I put all the stuff in a box and chuck it aside. Now, my table is all ready for some blood, sweat and tears to drip upon.
