Yay!

The exams are over. Although I didn't study much for the exams, like 5-6 hrs for FA, 4-5 hrs for Stats and 2-3 hrs for Econs, I think I have exceeded my expectations (maybe not so for Econs). I hope to get Bs so that it won't seem that I am a lousy student compared to my peers who worked very hard for their As and Bs. I didn't work very hard but I tried to make myself contributing to the projects and such..Thinking back, there are many things I will like to improve on for the next term. I think the most important thing to improve on is to be more sociable and try to be more talkative to the people I really want to talk to. I do think some people shun from me either because they themselves are shy or maybe I am too weird for their tastes. Nevertheless, the term was well spent as I have learnt many things not from the textbooks and courses. I also appreciate that there are people with very different lifestyles and beliefs as mine, so maybe I should learn to tell them like that and not tell them that I have other better things to do... there is always a plus and minus side to every activity we engage in. hee.

So Jinki is back and we had an enjoyable weekend. Went to the nature reserve with his family, enjoyed a great day at SITEX, had a superb soccer game with the 7seas brothers yesterday and Jinki and Kevin stayed over at my home. It's really quite surprising to have people staying over because my place is so small... I hope to move to the new home soon (where I will be having a smaller room) but it will be to my decor and taste and I can make sure my guests are well accomodated. Heh. Too bad we didn't get enough khakis for mahjong. Oh to mention the soccer game, we won 3 KO matches and lost one only spending the most time on the hockey court in NTU despite a wet ground, broken shoes and injured legs (Alex, Jinki, and me were all having niggling injuries).. Junhao was the best keeper I have ever seen, making all the important saves for us(you know if u concede one goal it's game over cos it's KO match). Jinki, me, my brother all scored.. haha. My father also played with us (a great defender) and threw my mother alone...bwahaha...my family is a family of football maniacs...hahahahaha...

Too bad even with the new model I derived for my punting, I lost money on the Sunday matches due to pure ignorance and poor mathematics foresight. It was too much of a rush.. so I shouldn't have bought anything...The great thing was that Liverpool beat Arsenal (hahaha FINALLY)!! While I didn't profited from it, I just felt great to see all the beautiful goals they scored...! Great play and superb tactics by Benitez considering none of the star strikers are around..

I am going JB tomorrow with my OG mates.. should be quite fun.. unfortunately, we need to be alert because JB isn't really like Singapore.... hope we have fun. Need to go find out where can we go to in JB city too..

Finally, see you at the airport soon! I will be working at the transit area in the airport, Terminal 1 or 2 I am not sure yet but I will know tomorrow.. haha.

It's a great day!
