Catching sunlight with my books

What I’ve learned in uni so far

1) Don’t wear your “Don’t sabo me” shirt to orientation if you don’t want to be sabo-ed.

2) Uni is not a bed of roses, contrary to everything that your jc teachers proclaimed. Not in science, anyway.

3) No one cares if you study or not.

4) Even if it doesn’t kill you, it’ll kill your interest in what you’re studying.

5) Gummy bears are not a long term solution to the bouts of drowsiness you experience during lectures. Just embrace sleep.

This is the excel spreadsheet for the lab report I’ve been grappling with since 3pm this afternoon. I don’t know how to calculate the molar volume for heaven’s sake. Die lab die!!!

Physics was my chosen major. While I maintained throughout my Jc2 life that I wanted to be an English major, the prospects of having an arts degree in Singapore wasn’t very attractive and I baulked at the idea. So, I made the sudden switch to study physics, a very weak subject of mine. And I’m dying. My backup plan to switch to statistics seem to be falling apart because that would mean two of my modules I’m taking this sem would be wasted. I’m really dying. Midterms are next week and the thick book you see above has been barely touched, since so far I’ve mostly been rushing assignments and sleeping. I don’t want all these to happen to me but it did and it’s too late to give up now. But actually, I’ve given up studying (hence the constant procrastination to revise even in the face of tests). I fear that this is just a huge waste of money, especially in wake of my current financial situation. And I fear that I’ve let down my dad once again. I feel like crying.

Well hello, I’m writing again instead of reblogging shit that I like… which is yummy shit methinks :D

None of my friends really read this blog except for two, because no one really knows what tumblr is and I don’t spend my time trying to convert people to tumblr. No one in my circle of friends really care about blogging anymore. This is Singapore in 2011. Even facebook is losing its popularity slowly but surely, let alone blogs. Well, I still read blogs every now and then. I still think 2004-2006 were the best years for blogs, in terms of quality posts and popularity.

Oh ya this post is supposed to be about my life thus far in 2011.

I grieved.

I worked.

I applied for universities, got into 3, and chose to study science.

I think I chose the wrong major because I just realised I’m really bad at it and this is killing all of my interest.

I think of changing my major everyday. It used to be like someone was holding a loudhailer, screaming “What have you done to your life! What a waste of money!” but now it’s just a shadow that creeps around the back of my mind.

I got fat eating cakes, then I stopped eating and got back to normal.

Everyday I come home from school and all I do is get my fat ass in front of the computer to surf the net. Midterms are the week after the next.

Story of my life thus far: done :D

It’s so strange how life works: You want something and you wait and wait and feel like it’s taking forever to come. Then it happens and it’s over and all you want to do is curl back up in that moment before things changed.
