It seems like i haven't updated about checking into Temasek Hall so here's sum info. Well, i got up at ard 5.30 in the morning cos we wanted to avoid the jam. By the time we reached there it was around 7 n office onli opens at 8.30 (not 10 as i tot originally) so me n my dad just loitered at the office lounge area until the ppl came in. So i became the 1st person to check in dat day n the clerk even asked me y did i come so early lol. Partly was because my dad still has to rush bck for work ltr lar. Well, fortunately i got a single room! So happy! Hahaha the room is spacious enuf for me lar just dat it took me sum time to clean the whole place up as well as unpack my stuff. Apparently jean is staying at temasek too onli in different blocks! Oh ya i realised theres like 2 mattresses in my room so anyone who wans to bunk in wif me in the future can do so w/o having to sleep on the hard floor lol! I tink xiao j shud be happy to hear tis haha.
There was nth on the whole day though apparently there was tis tok meant for international students at LT7 engin faculty. My fellow msian fren n ex-sec classmate ee wuen came to meet me while i was unpacking (he checked in at eusoff on monday) n den we both went to LT7 though the tok was over liao cos there was food!!!! Hahaha so basically there's free lunch lar n it was pretty good 2! There's another tok (the same 1) but tis time meant for PGP international students (morning one was for hall students) at 2 so me n ee wuen just took the free shuttle bus n went "sight-seeing" ard the campus. Ltr met bharat n nishanth at the tok n it was great seeing them again after so long! :)

And since the office onli opens at 10 i guess i'll be waiting for a couple of hours just to collect my keys........ Ee Wuen had been given a single room (though he's at a different hall) n dats given me sum hope dat i'll be given a single room 2! :)
Haih orientation AGAIN........

Okie was out of action frm blogging these few days cos my com broke down.......... I cant rmb how many times we have had to send our com for repair n had the entire hard disk reformatted so all my songs n pics n files n just abt any other stuff...........GONE..............
Haih summore now im told there's no cd rom in it.............i dun even noe wat dat is n wats it for.......im such a noob when it comes to computing stuff..............
Haven been feeling well these few days................felt like i was coming down wif a fever cos had all the symptoms for it but i seriously am not in the mood to be sick...........cos of a few reasons.......mum went for operation on her left eye cos of cataract....den im goin in on friday....so nows really not the best time to fall sick............quickly rehydrated by downing loads of fluid as well as taking vitamin c............well it kinda help, especially after u sleep on it........
Caught harry potter 5 wif kee the other day n it was pretty good! Felt dat the flow cud have been smoother in sum parts cos the story just sort of like jumped frm here to there so suddenly.....n they definitely cud use wif sum betta acting too........cos i really tink daniel radcliff can do betta wif his acting......it left us audiences wanting.......he really needs to step up on it......
Finished Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows within 2 days though i cud have easilly done it in 1.....probably cos i wanted it to last.....especially when it was so freaking delicious! I really really tink the book was fantastic.........action, emotion n flow was done superbly!
Dunno whether the harry potter fiasco reached spore or not........but apparently the 4 main book stores in msia - Popular, MPH, Harris and Times - refused to sell the book to walk-in customers.....onli those who have pre-ordered will be given the book.....but they can also choose to take bck their deposit instead...........sounds wierd? Lol cos apparently Carrefore n Tesco were selling them for RM69.90 while books at all book stores were selling them for RM109.90 Seems like a ridiculous price isnt it but wat the heck i've already pre-ordered mine frm MPH n wasnt just abt to drive all the way to Carrefore to get a cheaper one though i am fully aware that it will take hours be4 they r all sold out at these hypermarkets since they onli released the news of their RM40.00-less-harry-potter-book a day be4 the launch of the book.....pretty despicable huh when u consider that these bookstores onli get to make a decent profit frm their store when such big sellers come by once in a blue moon........i just dun understand why they cant let these ppl sell their books in peace........for fuck's sake u're a hypermarket lar..........go sell ur veg n cereal lar haiyo................
Anyway as the tradition goes u always get such freebies when u pre-order n MPH gave a harry potter mug while popular gave a shirt..........dun mind either but hey that mug cost me RM40.00 if u tink abt it can..............not dat im complaining.....we shud support the bookstores though i must admit its pretty stupid of them to use such a tactic to protest - that being their refusal to sell the book to walk-in customers (partly also becos they wanted to send a msg to the consumers that their seemingly high price wasnt aimed at making a profit out of them).............apparently Borders didn't join in the fun but sold their books at a 20% discount and they managed to clear every single book by the end of the day.......smart tactic to cut losses n even make sum profit while distancing themselves away frm the fiasco.........though i guess the rest of the bookstores may just label them as playing Judas......well when money is in the question n since its business we're talking abt, i guess there's not much ground to argue bah............
Cleared out all my books n placed them neatly on my book shelves in my room......n im just so happy to look at all those books i have.........book freak......ya that i am..........but at the same time i realised there's just so many books left unread.....though they're not exactly my fault cos most of them were old old books previously owned by my mum........i tink even she hasnt touched sum of those books there........mostly by Robert Ludlum n John Grisham.......but since they're both #1 selling authors i just have to give sum of their books my extremely limited time.........at the mean time i found a book which on the surface didnt really "arouse" me much but when the 1st few pages have been flipped, I WAS HOOKED. The title shud be extremely familiar to most though i dun tink most of us have caught the movie be4.........the movie (and the book be4 it) had been extreme successes and it starred sum big names....1 such as Al Pacino.........i always tot he was the one acting as the Godfather but apparently i was wrong....it was another more veteren actor whose name i cant recall..........ok so the book is The Godfather.......all abt the mafia families in New York n im telling you THE BOOK IS BRILLIANT! Go look it up u will definiely get hooked! Mine is an extremely fragile n battered book probably becos it was passed dwn frm the previous generation but its still readable.........sum plactic cover over it will preserve it for years to come........
Im still not in the pink of health yet.......gotta put more time into sleeping........dunno why but sleeping does help a lot when u're not feeling well.........
Not exactly looking forward to friday..........unless of course they give me a single room......i noe i keep whining abt dat but wat the heck................
Haih........cant the hols stretch on a bit longer..........?

Ok i onli got 2 pics here cos i din really use my phone to take pics thruput the camp since the councilors have loads of cam and they will upload the pics for us to retrieve. Howeva, the sad news is dat they uploaded the pics into photobucket, n for 1 reason or another my browser can nvr open up photobucket.......still trying though.........
Tis is wat happens when u have a forfeit....doing loads of embarassing stuff haha luckily up till now i tak kena any forfeit! :P
Group pic of my OG: V5! (V refers to V for Vendetta)
Pics r small cos of the blog layout so 2 bad.......i have a video too which i put up in youtube......wait let me see whether i can put it up here........
Ok i;ve decided not to put up the video here cos m layout 2 small n the video 2 big....will cover up the tagboard....so heres the url instead.......
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wd0SPp7Ykbg
Its basically just a video of the councillors doing a rather amusing forfeit dats all........im the one taking the vid so u cant see me.........
Ok.............was absent for so long frm blogging cos was at union camp...started off at tuesday n already it was sort of like a bad beginning for me cos cudn't locate kent ridge hall....was wif loo chin sitting like 2 idiots in the bus and didn't noe where to get off..........finally made it there in 1 piece though we were late but as expected loads of others were later than us lol...
The camp was pretty fun and interesting for me, though the OGLs n sum of my frens have commented dat it wasnt as fun as last years's one or even sum of the other camps be4 it..........i dunno much abt such comparison lar cos this is my 1st such camp in a long long time.....but i do noe dat i had fun n met loads of great ppl! So ya pretty glad dat i went for union camp afterall! :)
The camp, like many others, was really really tiring. It was meant to be tiring lar i guess so no complaints there. Cos u wud appear to be like an out-cast or not sociable if u alone went to sleep while the rest continues to chat n play games though everyone yearns terribly for their comfortable beds. The events go on all day though much improvement cud be used to try n maintain the events being packed 2gether and not causing hour long breaks in btw different events.....dat was like the downfall of the camp bah......nevertheless still enjoyed it a lot.
1st day began after lunch wif treasure hunt n me being the person wif extreme foresight indeed had my prophecy fall thru wif that 1 dreaded game: guys take off their shirts n pas it to the gals who use them to soak up water n then try n squeeze the water out for the guys to catch using miserable cups..........its really like the one we played during orientation at tj lar.........so dat was the 1st event where i took off my shirt....much to my dismay of course...why? Cos 95% of the guys who participated in union camp had 6 packs....! AND I AM NOT EXAGGERATING! If u dun believe me pls go n ask xin yi.......and the 6 packs dun just limit themselves to the freshies.....the OGLs n councilors have them 2........i'm like so freaking out of place can......
And worst still....my blister burst during the treasure hunt so i had to endure the pain thruout the ENTIRE camp....dat includes walking on sand, entering sea water, running bare-footed on the tracks as well as going thru mud n pool water........all sorts of exotic treatment lar....just dat these treatments actually make things worst than betta. At least it wasn't at a veri conspicuous position so still can tahan.....
After the treasure hunt was.......ermmmm ok cant rmb wat we had for nite.....
So next day, it was pool games till evening. Pretty fun though once again it was another event where we had to take off our clothes... Actually i had to take off my shirt pretty much once everyday lor.... ok nvm not impt.... so pool games was ok...not so tiring...den came SP nite...SP refering to secret pal...where each guy is paired up wif a gal whom we dunno....so we were blindfolded n den led to a place n sat dwn to chat wif each other...while the OGLs made fun of us asking us to feed each other w/o using our hands to guide the other person etc etc....
OHHHHH! Ok i rmbered wat we did for the 1st nite....we were supposed to put up a skit....like a short drama production.....ours was a total flop....and when i say flop, i mean FLOP........
Ok 3rd day.....it was sentosa day so no surprises there - clothes off once again. Sentosa was really tiring actually but ultimately it was still fun. Nite time though was Fright-nite. Its sth i've onli been thru once in a camp when i was 14, n dat 2 was pretty different. In this case, we were paired up (boy n gal) den we r supposed to go thru different stations where the OGLs all act as ghost to scare us while making us complete a task or mission.....sounds veri mild hor? Not when the place is isolated, completely dark, there's just u n her, and the OGLs are all in make-up.....there was 1 station which was tis bungalow....n its like freaking isolated cos there wasnt any other active buildings around except for loads n loads of trees...den the whole bungalow is empty save for the "ghosts" n u were supposed to explore the whole place n do stuff.....haih....quite scary.....nvr tot NUS got such isolated places....
4th day was Wargames where we had to put on face paint n go thru game stations again. Last game events liao so we went all out. Really enjoyed the wargames as compared to the other game events. Nite time was "Chiong Nite"....just a euphemism for clubbing lar actually....but the catch is dat we'll be meeting up wif our SPs.....not gonna elaborate much here save for the fact dat my SP was pretty chio...oh ya...sum freshies n OGLs got drunk 2.... :P Iswear i aint touching any other alcoholic drink again save sparkling wine, shandy n the occasional beer....vodka n martini just aint my stuff....
Basically slept like an average of 3 hours everyday.....like the ns boys enjoy saying: was damn shag! We broke camp during noon on the 5th day n i went str8 to my uncle's house to put my stuff cos meeting up wif the class ltr for dinner at marina but i overslept! $@&678$%@#&^$891264^^$@&*89 Luckily still managed to meet up wif ks n made it in time for dinner though i wasnt veri hungry cos had a pretty late lunch. Met up wif serena, chai yun, kiki, xin yi, arvin, ks, jason, ozy n xiao j so it was worth the rushafterall haha! :)
Came bck to jb on sunday morning to continue wif all the moving. New house rawks though theres still so much to do. My internet's not on yet so im actuall writting these stuff in my dad's office......
I dunno whether i shud take up USP or not...my interview session has been scheduled on the 27th, which is supposed to be the day i report to hall....so if i really intend to take up USP i have to check in earlier....worst still, i tink im gonna be given a double room lar..........I WAN A SINGLE ROOM! And i tink xiao j wans me to get a single room 2 so he can crash haha! :P
So far union camp has been an experience to behold....but for 1 reason or another im not exactly lookin forward to hall camp haha cos they say its gonna be even more tiring than union......haih i treasure my sleep a lot wan hor........but wateva lar i tink these stuff onli last for the 1st few months of the 1st sem so as long as i get thru em den everything shud be smooth n easy liao! :)
Haven booked my happy rotter book yet......eh wait shud be harry potter.....n i also haven caught the movie yet.....so most prob gonna do both within tis week. No pics up at the moment cos cannot do so at my dad's office so just have to wait lor......
The camp was pretty fun and interesting for me, though the OGLs n sum of my frens have commented dat it wasnt as fun as last years's one or even sum of the other camps be4 it..........i dunno much abt such comparison lar cos this is my 1st such camp in a long long time.....but i do noe dat i had fun n met loads of great ppl!

We broke camp during noon on the 5th day n i went str8 to my uncle's house to put my stuff cos meeting up wif the class ltr for dinner at marina but i overslept! $@&678$%@#&^$891264^^$@&*89 Luckily still managed to meet up wif ks n made it in time for dinner though i wasnt veri hungry cos had a pretty late lunch. Met up wif serena, chai yun, kiki, xin yi, arvin, ks, jason, ozy n xiao j so it was worth the rushafterall haha! :)
Came bck to jb on sunday morning to continue wif all the moving. New house rawks though theres still so much to do. My internet's not on yet so im actuall writting these stuff in my dad's office......
I dunno whether i shud take up USP or not...my interview session has been scheduled on the 27th, which is supposed to be the day i report to hall....so if i really intend to take up USP i have to check in earlier....worst still, i tink im gonna be given a double room lar..........I WAN A SINGLE ROOM! And i tink xiao j wans me to get a single room 2 so he can crash haha! :P
So far union camp has been an experience to behold....but for 1 reason or another im not exactly lookin forward to hall camp haha cos they say its gonna be even more tiring than union......haih i treasure my sleep a lot wan hor........but wateva lar i tink these stuff onli last for the 1st few months of the 1st sem so as long as i get thru em den everything shud be smooth n easy liao! :)
Haven booked my happy rotter book yet......eh wait shud be harry potter.....n i also haven caught the movie yet.....so most prob gonna do both within tis week. No pics up at the moment cos cannot do so at my dad's office so just have to wait lor......
So...............new news...........doesn;t necessarily mean good news but its still wayyyyyy betta than no news............turns out dat for my ddp, the modules i'll be taking will be slightly different frm the normal civil eng student........ (who was it who asked me to just freaking refer to the civil timetable???!! ^%$$$&^*$##&%#**&^#%&*&&##@*&
So........now i only have to take up 4 eng modules plus 1 econs module for my 1st sem.......MA1505, PC1431, EG1109, CS1101C, EC1101E...........actually these are just suggested modules lar so i assume we can always pick sth else if we really want to.........so altogether 5 modules, which is reasonable! FINALLY!
lus my french modules, dat makes 6! Still pretty manageable, as compared to 8 before this! Madness.........
But den.....the prob is they haven uploaded the timetable......so no way for me to coordinate my timings......but aneway the dateline for the LPP has passed so i cant change a thing aneway......just pray everything goes alright..........
The new 7 wonders of the world's out apparently! Ohhhhhh wait i tink it shud be 8.......cos must include the Pyramids of Giza..........well the rest of the wonders are the Great Wall of China (1st position summore hahahaha), Petra in Jordan, Christ the Redeemer statue in Brazil, Machu Pichu in Peru (my fav!!!!), Chichen Itza in Mexico (nvr heard of it be4 prior to this actually), Colosseum in Italy and last but not least, the Taj Mahal in India (i cant imagine the Taj not making it into the list lar....)!
But kinda pity cos i tot the Sydney Opera House wud have made it into the list 2.......was kinda rooting for Angkor Wat as well........but well there's onli those few positions.........
Have you ever wondered wat the ORIGINAL seven wonder of the world really are? Cos i never really knew the whole list.............and i always tot that the Sydney Opera House belongs to the original list when it turned out to be the youngest contender among all the rest.........Well, for the original ones, theres:
Great Pyramids of Giza
Hanging Gardens of Babylon
Temple of Artemis at Ephesus
Statue of Zeus at Olympia
Mausoleum of Maussollos at Halicarnassus
Colossus of Rhodes
Lighthouse of Alexandria
The onli reason why the Pyramids were made honourary member of the list (they were kinda "seeded" haha meaning they were already in the list be4 the polls were done cos the Egyptian officials were indignant at the fact that they had to contend wif the rest of the list when they already belong to the original list........talk about high n mighy......) was because they remain to be the only surviving wonder int he original list......the rest have all been destroyed.......so onli the ruins remain.........
Heading off to union camp tmr.........hope its gonna be fun.........! :)

Ok............i tink i'm slightly getting over my head.........USP, LPP, SEP, Double Degree.......throw in an addition of a hectic hall life........plus part-time jobs (still unsure yet).........i tink i'll be bursting my head just trying to find the time to fit in all of these activities........well.......i guess i'll have to get my priorities rite........i certainly intend to do the LPP, and thus the SEP........so i tink if i can't handle all the workload i'll just drop from USP den.........not dat i'll get in dat easily aneway..........
International Students can also check in early into the halls.......but i dunno whether i wanna do dat or not.........i noe it'll gimme loads of time to unpack my stuff as well as get familiarised wif the environment.......n if i have any outings on i dun have to travel to n fro..........but den.......haih dunno lar...........the earliest i can check in is on the 16th.......which is like 2 days after union camp ends as well as 2 days after i move into the new house........maybe i'll just check in slightly earlier.......like maybe on the 23rd.........so i dun have to travel long distances for the USP interview.........haih........dunno lar.............
Veri sien...........
