When on earth can i have time to do other stuffs? For the past few days, the moment i reached my room, my only wish was that i could just knock off...but i couldnt afford to do that...I had to rely on cans of Nescafe to keep me awake...there were times when a can of coffee didnt help at all...I just concussed!
My mid-term break is almost gone!!! and i have not even got the chance to learn how to cycle, aarrgh...
I have encountered so many problems and difficulties with the robot's sensors for the past few days...experienced a few successes, which really made my day...Sometimes i regretted choosing to be in charge of 'sensors'...but sometimes i'm thankful enough to be in this sub-group as i have really really learnt a lot for the past 5 days...Well, *cross my fingers* i am 90% sure by tomorrow night, my robot's brain shld be functioning well!

Mid-term Break is coming...
It seems only like yesterday my school break was a real BREAK! One-month easter break, weekends break, Bank holidays, post-exams break...Break totally means NO WORK, NO STUDY back then.
But what break in Singapore means? More time to revise ur school work...More time to concentrate on projects...more time to catch up on neglected tutorials...and maybe a bit more time to sleep!
I really envy those exchange students here (the same way my NUS friends envied me last time when i was on exchange)...
A: So what's ur plan for the mid-term break?
B (an exchange student): Oh I'm flying to Jakarta this Saturday...I'll be there for 3 days 2 nights and i'll be heading to Bali after that...How about u? Where are u going?
A: I'M STUCK IN SINGAPORE!!! doing my robot...haiz...
Another conversation with other exchange students...same question asked and here were the replies:
"I'm going to Thailand...gonna shop like crazy there!", "We are going to Hongkong","Going Malaysia for the whole week..."
The conversations didnt end there...They told me where they're going to stay, what their plans are...and the story continued.
It seems only yesterday i was in their shoes:
"I'm going to Oxford this coming weekend..."," Next weekend? Oh i'll be in London", "gonna travel ard Europe during easter Break", "After exams? Heading to Spain & Greece"
Haiz...i have been missing Loughborough so much recently...Those memories kept coming back to my head, disturbing my concentration...I really want to be an exchange student FOREVER and EVER!!! hahaha...
Time to get back to reality...
My mid-term break is not that pathetic though...i'm excited enough to see my robot coming into action! And I GONNA LEARN HOW TO CYCLE!!!!! hahaha...

Things are not the same anymore...
Can you feel it?
One day, you looked very angry with me...From that day onwards, i could feel that u r avoiding me...our conversation is not as lively as last time...you become less cheerful...your facial expression tells me that you are hurt...Those differences are too obvious to be ignored.
Did i send you the wrong signal last time? Was i wrong to agree to go out with you last time? I'm really sorry if the answer to both questions is YES. I was just showing that friendly nature of me...
You are my best friend and i dont want that fact to change simply because of my recent decision. I want the same old you, who's always so positive abt anything, who never fails to make ppl around you happy, whose smile is so contagious...
Please treat me as your best friend as well!

Random
I'm still in the process of adjusting back to NUS lifestyle...i'm gaining back the momentum, but it's not maximal yet!
Two major works, which have been occupying my mind: Design project and FYP. Remember how i condemned one of my modules in year 1: C Programming...The most unbelievable thing is that i easily agreed to be in charge of testing & programming of the robot's sensors! GOSH!!! Where was my insanity at that point of time? Honestly-speaking, i dont see any light at the end of the tunnel...i could only pray that whatever is on the paper now will come into life fully on the competition day, November 2nd...and hopefully it'd be the Champion Stacker!!!
Final Year Project is more manageable...Oh btw, i chose this project for my thesis: "Thermal process and shaping of freeze zone in cryosurgery." Sounds chim? Well, i'm basically investigating the killing of cancer cells in cryosurgery using freezing process...What motivated me into choosing this project was the fact that i could do something to help others! No regret in choosing this as i have a very helpful & chatty lab Technical assistant, who always helps me in setting up my experiment and chitchats with me while waiting for my ice to form. My professor is another friendly and helpful one, who always replies my email promptly, even when he's stuck in a long meeting. I spent most of the days last week in the lab, repeating what the senior had done...and i was just given more tasks to do and more stuffs to be thought about!
Expect fewer updates from me...as the days ahead will be hectic ones!
* Btw, i'm really sorry if my recent decision has hurt someone or even more than one person...but i'm 100% sure that i have made the right decision ;) *
