battered

i just majorly screwed up all my 3 papers. how? what if i can't grad with a second upper degree? how? no 2.1 means no hopes of ever being a lawyer. how? not that i yearn to be one, but i cant witness 3-yrs of hard work (like real) and tons of money wasted on stupid me just like that, right? and the problem is i had the answers all stored up somewhere up there right before i entered the exam hall. but somehow during the 3 hrs of the paper, everything just went *poof*. gone. just like that.

i'm now having an exam-phobia. i can't even fall aslp for a single minute the night before the exams and this contributed to all that exam nerves.

one more paper to go. it's the last ray of hope left. but i'm taking a break for now.

this is it

all my hopes and dreams, all the hard work and lack of sleep, all the instant noodles and pasta - all for nothing.

my fate was sealed in the last 2 hrs during my favourite paper. what made it worse was the fact that i had 100% of the answers up in my puny brain and only managed to convey 30% of them into words on my exam script.

fucking demoralising.

Sunday, May 20, 2007

having gone through this synonymous routine year by year, for at least the past 15 years, im still feeling the high and lows of the inevitable nightmare - exams.

high from the lack of sleep, or rather the daily guilt from sleeping past 5 snoozes of the alarm.

low from all that mugging and yet, minimum absorption. i need the largest dose of omega-3 to boost my memory instantly. almost impossible since fishes cost a bomb here and the only time i attempted, it took me 2 hours to unsuccessfully fry a goddamn mackerel.

daph's bf brought us to this fruit and veg warehouse at 4am in the morning abt 2 nights ago. the sight of brightly-coloured, fresh cherries, bananas, mandarin oranges, lychees, mushrooms, pak choys, chye sims and countless unidentifiable leafs and fruits managed to lift up my spirits instantly after 3 weeks of cooping myself up in my room (other than the weekly grocery-shopping at the supermarkets). if they weren't sold in boxes, i would have bought at least 10 varities back. but still, i stubbornly bought back one whole box of lychees for 8pounds knowing that we would never be able to finish that much.

can't believe im panicking over my results even before i sat for any of the exam papers. results will be out on 22nd june, the day im heading back to sg. can it be any more coincidental? knowing myself, i wld probably check my results before boarding the plane and then... 13 hours of brooding over the best way to break the news to my parents. im already starting to lose my appetite, not cos of exams, but the release of the results. then again, they're are intrinsically linked.

omg im so incoherent. maybe that's how the words in my exam scripts will seem like to the examiners. wish me luck.

yay i got in yay i got in yay i got into my own blog.

turned out that it was my username tt i had forgotten. duh.

anyway just a brief update since i realised i havent updated for more than a month! hmm let me backtrack...

easter trip:
prague was amazing but budapest was dead boring. and if u havent heard, i almost knocked my tooth out during the olympic-style white water-rafting. water was freezing cold and as if having great difficulty paddling in the cruelly rough waters wasnt extreme enough, we had to struggle with the countless heavy metal bars dangling everywhere, waiting to knock us into a coma. but i like~
the korean restuarant which we visited 3 nights in a row managed to lift up my spirits while having to deal with a loose tooth for the rest of my trip.

hamburg was beautiful, with the shoik-ingly spicy dan-dan mian that i had consecutively for two dinners. berlin was tragic since we couldnt find any gd food though it's rich in history.


after all that happening stuff, im now back in my room struggling with the forthcoming exams. i hate exams i hate exams i seriously hate exams!

and it doesnt help that after this despressing period is over, im faced with two attachments back in sg. there goes my summer hols.

but at least i can look forward to my girls' arrival in UK! and mel, we're gonna visit you together. finally!

lastly, since it's been like decades since i last uploaded any pic, here's a little treat for all of you before i go back to mug:
