the good thing about S/U modules
Friday, February 10, 2006
I had my first mid term test in Canada. Yah, it seems pretty early and some of you may still be in lunar new year mood, i hope. Anyway, the mid term was on Geotechnical Engineering II. Perhaps i really did play so much that i didnt sense the urgency to study for it until the day before (sounded pretty like my raffles hall times when huiying and i studied for our paper only the day before because seniors told us that "you juz do 1qn out of 3 and u can get a B-grade" or "it's so hard to fail in NUS. I didnt study much and i got a B-"<-- BULLSHIT... Supper and card games are our biggest distraction durin exam.
Back to my mid-term today. It was scheduled on friday at 5-7pm and strictly speaking, i have 1.5days to study for it. But i accidentally dozed off on thursday afternoon and in the evenin my housemates invited me to try their home-made salsa sauce. 'tried' chilling out wif them but still, felt s0me kind of barrier though they are nice ppl. will show pics of them when the time is right. haha. Was complainin to Giselle that "im here to play. They shouldnt let exchange students have test/exams. just attendance in school will b fine".
ok, i didnt realize that 5-7pm is such a bad timing. totally no mood to study though i have 3hrs of free time b4 it, BUT STILL, i struggled to finish as much as i can. Was havin my afternoon tea of muesli bar and hot chocolate at 4pm(juz incase i get hungry durin the paper). What the hell, i get hungry realli easily lately--> i can sense tt my stomach is going to make weird noises halfway through the paper. Damn. The whole room has only 4ppl. Me, The lecturer and 2other students. Oh guess what, i requested to have the test earlier. haha.. cos i dun want to haf so many tests next wk so i choose to end earlier than ltr. alright, the more i tried controlling my hunger, the worse it gets. The lecturer left to grab his dinner and ate it while invigiliating. Darn.... help ah...
And my decision was: I need to get food. Don't want to exbarrasse myself in class wif the growling of my stomach.so choose to Stop doing and find sara and joo to have dinner.
I left the room half an hr b4 the paper end. I even explained to the lecturer that i'm hungry so i gotta leave first. Anyway, i guess this paper shudnt b too hard to pass...see, the gd thing abt satisfactory/unsatisfactory (non-graded) module!
