Final Exam Results

Wednesday, 27 February 2008

Posted: 11:56 hours (GMT+8)

Exam results are out. I know for sure now that I’ve graduated and that I don’t need to stay another semester. Yay.

Rather disappointed with some of my modules. My teachers and classmates have seen me work hard, especially for Advanced Measurement. Perhaps I should just be content that I passed.

I got a B+ for my Final Year Project. That’s just one grade from an A. From what I gathered from my last conversation with my project supervisor a few weeks back, a poor concluding chapter was what cost my group the A. Oh well. What’s done is done. I shall just make it a point to learn that my work has to be equally good throughout and not rush through the end.

A+ for CCA. Heh. I’d be surprised if I racked so many points to get anything less.

Now that that’s out of the way, I have some other issues to deal with. Glad to have one less thing to think about.


Daily reminder to myself

Using a simple yellow square post-it note to remind myself of what I need to remember every day.

To stay calm, be aware of my emotions and make decisions with a clear mind.

Realising the importance of doing it for myself but I can’t help feeling some extra incentive from the little purple plushie bear that sits below it, its beady eyes staring up at me as I type and watching my progress.

I won’t turn into the very kind of people I have little to no respect for.

I thought this would be useful to everyone since most of you folks who read my blog are my classmates about to start work. Had someone steal credit for your work? Twist your words to make their screw-up at work seem like your fault? Save yourself some potential agony and frustration and give the following links a click.

Don’t waste time negotiating with psychos

Okay, I’m finally going to sleep now…


Cup of tea (aka I shouldn’t really blog at 2am)

(Edit, 02:11 hours: Damn, I know I’m going to attract flaming now.)

Getting quite irritated with people who muse so much about love. “Why isn’t my relationship working out boohoo. Why doesn’t she like me WHY?! We’re perfect for each other. I don’t want to live anymore~!” etc.

I wonder if I was like that in the past. Doubt it was to that extent at any rate.

Maybe now that I’ve finally found a very decent guy who’s open to talking about this kind of stuff with me that I’ve finally wised up to the whole thing.

Quit over-complicating things. It’s really simple.

Love is a load of chemical reactions. That’s it. That’s ALL. This especially applies to those people who love someone… But can’t give you a real reason why. You don’t need to know someone to fall in love with them.

Go and look for the person who understands you and will put in effort to meet your needs. That comes on your part too. There’s that old saying that says it takes 2 hands to clap and whatever. You can’t force anyone (or yourself for that matter) to “save” a relationship if it isn’t work out.

You want complicated? All right, fine…

Exams finally over

Monday, 4 February 2008

Exams are finally over but Chinese New Year is around the corner so I’m still quite busy.

Don’t really know why but I feel super irritated and tired at the moment.

I guess there’s some issue bugging me that I haven’t been able to express properly yet. I wonder if it’s just a part of me being unreasonable and moody or if it’s justifiable.

Quite a fair bit has happened in the past one month plus. Mostly good. I’m unsure how much I’m willing to share openly on a public blog.

Gotta fix the tags and links soon.
