day today was fine i guess...
other than the fact my buddies pon me during the module talk today...
so i was sitting alone alone till i started smiling at this girl beside me...
i'm not psycho...
just friendly...
and found some people i didnt really get to know earlier...
but the day turned out slightly better...
met rebecca of 11/02...
hung out with her and a TPJC girl for most of the day...
attended FIC...
the USP orientation is kinda a lack of an orientation...
none of the usual everybody-follow-your-OGL thingy...
more own-time-own-target...
you come if you want to...
great food provided i must say...
though i would rather more of an orientation to quench the lost and flustered mind...
met more pple...
mostly girls coz i'm shy...
yeah rite...
met some seniors...
a few who are really nice...
went out with the bunch for dinner and kopi at holland village...
talked abt crap, modules, tips, stuff...
my table's list of topics was much tamer than the other one...
with subjects ranging from polygamy, gayism, SM, feminism, etc etc...
while the mood was queer at my table...
considering we havent really met one another for real prior to this...
we survived...
and i walked away, a happy individual...

popped by the room in the morning before the module talks...
the splish splash of rain on the panes kinda made it seem all the more homely...
i'm starting to like my room...
esp the fact that i have somewhere to retreat to between lessons and tutorials...
'tis cool...
am glad...
would be even more great when i get my laptop...
move in my boombox...
and get my nice comfy sheets over my mattress...
let's hope i'll never get bedbug problems...
and that i'll have a great term in my room...

got my 4 pre-allocated modules for engineering already...
bidded for 2 USP modules...
got them rather cheaply...
probably because no one in the right state of mind would choose something he/she doesnt know anything abt...
writing and critical thinking: Reading Landscapes...
like i even know what that is?
topics in Lit2: Cinema, Pleasure, Identity...
sounds cool?
i thot so...
apparently i hear from the seniors the lecturers for these modules are wonderful people...
i'm trusting what i hear...
and looking forward to the start of lessons next week...

kinda consolidated my timetable already...
monday is a lunch-less marathon of 10am to 6pm...
sounds terrible...
but i should count my lucky stars that USP blk is rite next to the engin fac...
i probably wouldnt be too late for lessons...
after the marathon is 2 days of restful meditation...
2 hrs on tues and another 2 hrs on wed...
and i'm done...
would be great for rushing homework...
and doing all things non-academic...
friday is another marathon...
but at least i have a two hr lunch break...
only downside for now is that i totally no inkling, whatsoever of how my klassmates are like...
dont know anyone from the lists i went through...
up side?
stella ng, PC, YXY, CC, william, i think chris too...
are in the same lecture group...
happy...
but dont think i can see them often...

kinda regretted not going for camps...
but oh well...
you cant have your pie and eat it at the same time...
win some, lose some...
at least i dont regret having stayed back in Milk to ride us out the madrush...
