See you again // Wiz Khalifa

Been 1 week and 2 days since school started. I am still very much confused with the subjects I'm taking. Just earlier, I was doing my Econs tutorial, I went to refer to my Stats lecture notes. This is like the infinite time I'm referring to the wrong notes. Mugging with the 01'Club, Hweeleng and Weiheng are the last men standing, including me of course. Really thankful to have classmates to motivate me to study. If we do not have this skype session, I would really just surf the internet the whole day and not get any shit done.

My life for the past few days has just been really boring. Had like a fire drill in school today, if there really was a fire, I would have been burnt to death. At the rate that people are escaping the building, hardly anyone could have survived the fire. We had to escape to the school outdoor stadium and it was scotching hot even though there were slight drizzles of rain. I wore a denim jacket and was suffering from the intense heat. If i stayed there any longer, I might have heat stroke, just saying. But everyone treat the fire drill as a joke though and it took very long, like about 20 mins just to walk to the stadium, when actually it is just a 10 min walk. There was like jams on the way and many people kept pausing to take pictures and snapchat video of what's happening, I am one of them.

Sigh and I have this thing bugging me since the start of this week, like I've forgot to bring something along with me. It is just a really bad feeling, I feel so empty. Am I feeling physically empty or emotionally empty? Sigh, I really want to see him badly but our timing keeps clashes and when I'm free, he's not, vice versa. I wonder when can we really meet. He keeps postponing our meet-ups too. I just really hope we will see each other soon. 

School is tough for me, and I need to release my stress. I want to forget about everything and start anew. Some times, I wish I could just filter out unwanted memories so I can just focus on my studies and not let other things affect me. I'm not kidding when I say I am really aiming for 4.0 GPA. This is really tough on my side and I just wish people would stop making it tough for me. Stop making me think about you everyday, stop ignoring me, please. 

It's been a long day, without you my friend. Oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again.
Its been a long way, from where we began and I'll tell you all about it when I see you again.

Its really been so long since we last met. Hope to see you soon. Goodnight earthlings, sugar dreams.

Boring Saturday

My Saturday started off with me waking up at 12 noon and the first thing I did was to use my phone. I went on twitter and start retweeting random things on my timelist. I was feeling restless the whole day because I was waiting for a certain text but it never came till night falls. 

I kept myself busy by watching shows on my laptop and using phone. I was watching a Korean drama titled 'Angry Mom' and watched till the latest episode was aired. I then went over to watch an anime aggressively introduced by my friend, titled 'kimi no uso' if I remembered correctly. The anime was not too bad, it was about musically inclined middle school students playing the piano and violin and definitely some romance in the anime as well. I am really not into romantic shows, be it movies or dramas. I prefer action, comedy and thriller. After watching the anime, I watched the new variety show called 'EXO next door'. Basically my day was spent watching shows on my laptop.

Felt so dumb today because I was doing my Economics tutorial question and I did not know how to do so I thought I should refer to my lecture notes, BUT!!!!!!!!!!! I took the wrong notes, no wonder it did not make sense to me. Like, why can't I find the answer I'm looking for and why is it not related. In the end, i resort to my Economics textbook but the textbook has too much information, difficult for me to just look for 1 thing. Then, at that moment, I realize that all these while, I was looking at Statistics Lecture notes. OH GOD, I am still very much confused with the subjects I am taking.

12:49pm, oovoo-ing with ex-secondary school mates, Sharifah and Belinda. Sharifah is so denying that she's my die-hard fan. I took a photo of her when she was talking to her mom, so she desperately wanted to see the photo on my Snapchat, but it couldn't load on her phone and she was complaining to me about it. See!! She acts like if she doesn't get to see my snaps, she can't survive hahahaha, that's how much I mean to her. Then, she starts calling me and Belinda rude buddies on her snaps.

Today was basically boring, till night time when I'm all done with all my work, and then I finally received the text I'm waiting for the whole day, then a conference video call with my favorite people. Oh but not long after, Belinda left and Nina joined in our video call. Sakinah popped in for a few seconds then left for god knows what reason and never came back.

So this is like basically what happens to my day today. Sigh, and someone is just not replying my whatsapp, sobs. Goodnight earthlings, not sleeping yet though. Sweet dreams to everyone and thanks for reading this post. Bless you.

1st week of school: completed!

Wow, in a blink of an eye, 6 months had past since I last took my O'levels. 6 months of holiday felt like 2 months. Can't believe I am already starting school at Singapore Polytechnic and today marks the end of the first week of school. 

I am starting as a business student at Singapore Polytechnic in Diploma of Accountancy. This blog is dedicated to my 3 years in Poly. I hope that i would be able to at least update every single day, to keep track of how much I've grown over the years, as well as the beautiful memories I am going to make with my classmates. 

Starting as a Year 1 student, everything was going fine for me. However, the school is too huge and I'm still having problems with finding a certain location myself. I've mastered going to my classrooms but not yet to the 6 food courts and the cafes in school. I am even confuse with which food courts sells what food. 

For the past few days, lessons in school have been boring but easy. The introduction of new teachers and having to memorize their names is a little tough on my side. Some times, I do not even remember what classes I had before. My mind is still adapting to the new environment and the new subjects. Additionally, in Poly, acronyms is commonly used. Every single subject is being written down in acronyms, some times i do not even know what class am i attending till i reach the venue.

The subjects I have started taking right now are Fundamentals of Marketing, Statistics for Business, General Education, Microeconomics, Principle of Accounting, Education and Career Guidance and Communication Project Report. Though I have no idea how some of them are useful, well I have these classes and some of them are real boring. 

Subjects like General Education is more of communicating skills but I don't really like one of my group mate. He gives off the really weird vibe? It's hard to explain because I've only seen him once for 2hrs and I'll be seeing him again the coming Monday, sigh. I hope we would be able to switch groups because business is all about making friends, expanding our social circle as they may be our future business partners. However, if we are still being stuck in the same group, I hope I can soon pinpoint what I dislike about him and why does his classmates isolate him as well.

I have certainly no idea what Communication Project Report is other than learning how to speak proper English, have a proper standing posture when giving a speech and eye contact. I do not even know when this class will finally end. Surely we don't have to learn about this for 3 years I hope. As for my other subjects, it is probably obvious what I am learning as the name says it all.

Oh, its really weird too. Its only the first week but I see so many Year 1 students already staying back in school to complete homework. Meanwhile for my class, we do not have homework yet. It is no wonder too, my classes keep getting cancelled because the lecturers are always busy with other things. Its good and bad. Good because either I can come in later than others, go home earlier or a longer break time. Bad is because there would always be a make-up lesson and it would be after everything. Classes can end up till 7pm too. Its hella tiring for us if we have classes in the morning starting at 8am. Next Monday, I actually have classes at 9am, but the teacher cancelled it so I only have to report to school at 1pm instead. But the lessons will be postponed to some day after school, hopefully when the day comes I would have energy for classes.

Had Statistics lecture from 2-3pm, I almost fell asleep hearing the lectures. Either the subject is boring or the lecturer just talks way too monotonous. Had chicken chop at my school's cafe: Moberly Cafe. The chicken chop was good! As for the food courts, I would prefer food court 5, where all the fastfoods are like KFC and Subway. There is even Starbucks at food court 5 too! I LOVE STARBUCKS! Food court 4 is actually KOUFU.

I guess that's all for the first week of school. Kinda boring if you would ask me, but friends made school all the more bearable. Glad to have made new friends in school. 

A picture of us taken in Statistics Tutorial, we weren't paying attention, class was way too boring.
