was going to spam the tagboard cos i was too lazy to log in, but then i didn't want to interrupt the stimulating intellectual exchange that biyun and lixiang have underway haha. and anyway its breather time in the middle of exam week(s), so well.

had papers the entire week, mon to sat (yes, saturday!), am very very very glad to be able to have sat evening off. well, partly off technically, since i should get started on my reading for monday's paper soon. but i'm feeling sooo lazy; what i'll give for exams to be over like, now. am glad next week is just three papers, and spaced apart - mon, wed, fri; though perhaps it'll be nice to just get them over and done with. then again, i really don't think i can take anymore cramming.

time really flies though, to think a month or two back i was like, die how finals coming, will i be able to survive?? and now i'm 2/3 way through, not to mention 3 years of overseas study is almost over. and admittedly now that it's almost over, the whole experience wasn't that bad. perhaps because i'm not pushing to get a first, am content with getting second-upper, as long as its a decent-ish second upper. and admittedly i haven't really been working very hard - slipshod studying, innumerable breaks, immense lack of concentration. given all that am thankful papers have gone well so far (or at least, i think they have, may turn out to be otherwise when i get my results back), in the sense that i've managed to complete the mandatory 4 questions on each paper - if you don't finish the paper they shortweight the entire paper i.e. reduce your overrall mark by a certain percentage, which essentially means can forget about getting a second-upper even.

haha okay sorry for rambling on about exams, its hardly the most exciting topic of conversation around. am really looking forward to post-finals and to being back in spore for good, although possibly i might start to get bored haha. but then there'll be you guys to be around - hopefully everyone won't be too busy! and am sooo looking forward to my xiaolongbao and bak chor mee and hokkien mee ahhh. (which reminds me, huijun still owes me fish beehoon or something. haha.)

hope everyone's been well, haven't really been keeping in touch lately, except with biyun and zhigao over facebook haha. and biyun over msn sometimes, teresa and yanlian very occasionally. take care everyone, and looking forward to seeing you guys soon :)
