china.

It feels kinda unreal that I'm going China tomorrow.

bliss of a student's life

Today was fun (:

Went to NUS today for my OSM presentation.

Lucky for myself, I got to present on Popcap.com.

I must say, it was a joy to do it cuz I absolutely love its bejeweled game (:

Can't wait to meet the VP James Gwertzman in Shanghai.

Had a chat with the ilead girlies about what to pack after the session.

It's a major headache.. I've already packed like 15kg thus far =/

Where should I put all my shopping loot from China then ):

We're planning to meet again on Thursday for some shopping!

First at Mustafa, then Vivocity (:

I think I've gotten most of my stuff already.

But I shall join in for the fun of it (:

The trip is FINALLY coming. Yays! (:

May Saturday come soon!!! yipee!

happy monthiversary (:

Exams are such a hassle. sigh.I'm lazy to blog now as I have my bags to pack.

Been on a crazy shopping spree for these two days (:

I even got my CNY clothes already!

But oh wells, that's a tradition for myself every year,

where I'd get CNY clothes during pre-xmas season.

I feel that the clothes are the prettiest then..

Before all the red clothes start to fill the racks

Ex-nuffie.

Now that I'm typing this, I'm no longer a Nuffie.

Today was my last day of work at Nuffnang.

I'm having really mixed feelings now and

I badly need an outlet to express all the running thoughts..

Half a year flew past.

It was almost like a total whirlwind which swept me away.

The experience was mostly fun (:

Especially the Singapore River Festival and Blog Awards

Now that I think back about it, it feels rather surreal..

It's funny how the memories in the past six months are haunting me right now..

I'm not one who's good at expressly emotions and thoughts well outwardly..

But I'm starting to wonder if I'm already missing Nuffnang.

After all, I've been in here for half a year

It feels like a part of me is taken away; a big one too..

Somewhat like a breakup with one of your closest friend

That kinda feeling.. Anyone knows?

Oh wells (: I should be thankful,

because it was a wondrous half year, filled with its ups and downs (:

Now the girls are away at Genting, celebrating their bdays

Have a good one girls! (:

And last but not least, I just wanna thank ming again.

He has been very patient, for which I really do appreciate.

Now the whirlwind has left,

I start to wonder how I should proceed

I find myself feeling slightly lost..

like.. what am I doing next week?

And the week after?

And the month after?

How do I start piecing my life again, so it might go back to the past?

When was the past? When did it start and end?

To think about it,

if I hadn't taken one module in NUS,

I'll be practically cut out from my school life..

But I must say that it's really tough to be working and studying at the same time

It makes me appreciate study life so much more..

I miss dance.

I miss my friends whom I've neglected.

I miss having a good laugh.

I miss going for frequent gatherings.

I miss slacking at the psych table.

Damn. I even miss climbing the never-ending steps in Arts.

I miss being a student.

And I'm glad.. I'm given another six months of such a life (:

Take a deep breath Eileen.

It's time to move back (:

Matryomin

This is super cool!

Here's how it works: The theremin, originally known as the aetherphone / etherophone or termenvox / thereminvox is an early electronic musical instrument controlled without contact from the player. It is named after its Russian inventor, Professor Léon Theremin, who patented the device in 1928. The controlling section usually consists of two metal antennas which sense the position of the player's hands and control oscillators for frequency with one hand, and amplitude (volume) with the other. The electric signals from the theremin areamplified and sent to a loudspeaker.

Exams' out!

My most dreaded day of the month had passed!

Honestly speaking, I didn't prepare much for the PL4205 exams,

considering the fact that I effectively have only about 2 days to study for it.

But nonetheless, I was very grateful for the fact that it's an evening paper.

I think I'm really lucky; it's an open book exam, and.. (don't kill me)

the six exam questions was given 5 days before the actual exams,

of which three will come out.

Sounds almost too good to be true?

There's a catch here, which is we're not allowed to prepare paragraphs or sentences.

Notes that we make must come in point form.

I mean, the concept is rather warped because we are allowed to bring in all lecture notes and readings.

They're all in sentences and paragraphs! Plus the notes we had wrote in these stuff are in sentences.

She mentioned previously that she'll walk and check our notes one by one.

And thus, I was utterly frustrated in terms of preparing my notes.

In the end, I just highlighted segments of my readings and labelled them accordingly to the questions they are being used. lol.

My additional notes were like titles of the materials, arranged in the sequence which I'll be writing in.

It was almost impossible to cram stuff and prepare for all six questions in two days.

So, I did something really risky.

I spot questions; four out of six questions to be precise.

Luckily enough, all three questions came out of the four!

I'm how lucky (: whee!

Another of my bad was that I was being overly complacent.

Answering three questions in two hours will technically equate to insufficient time for writing.

Yet I was still flipping through my notes and looking for the labelled paragraphs.

In the end, I couldn't finish question 3. sigh.

My bad for not being prepared ):

Oh wells. At least exams' over! (:

Look at what I got over lunch today!

I rented this book from Sans bookshop.

I know there're many books offers of late, perhaps due to xmas season.

But I really don't have much space to store books,

So renting is a better option (:

This is the same author who penned "P.S I love you".

That book made me cry like mad.

Lets hope this one doesn't, but still contain the same amount of heart-warming content.

Will update about this book once I've read it!

Oh a side note, isn't this the sweetest concept of stuffed toys ever made?

The blue nose friends series is just too adorable!

For this, it's tatty bear hugging toots the elephant (:
