3rd last day in canada!
Went down to the mall to have my last haircut in canada/2008!
It turned out that my hair stylist is from thailand and she went to singapore to work a long long time ago. And now she is now working in canada.
It a strange feeling knowing someone's past happening in a place that I am so familar with.
Lucky plaza is the first place she mentioned.
I knew this place was once a very popular place in its heydays. But now it became a place that took me seconds later to realise where is it.
She remembered crossing sentosa in a ferry and was fascinated when i told her that its becoming a casio, with cable cars and trains crossing over to the island.
So many changes that is happening around.
A pity i was having a flu, with runnynose and losing my voice.
haha! talked too much in skype when i needed rest the most!
Else i will surely talk more with her.
Maybe?
Well, its quite hard to let your guards down to talk to a stranger about personal stuff especially when she has a scissors on ur neck.
REally hope i can recover fully tml.
To make it to tml's party!
yeah!
i rmb spending my 2006/2007 and 2007/2008 with jockbiao and yongcheng.
While spending my 2005/2006 in the ops rooms doing duty. (and having to greet Happy New Year upon receiving any calls)
Geee... i cant remember much before that.
Thats the thing, people tend to forget.
But i'm sure 2008/2009 will be another memorable day since its my first time celebrating in foreignlands.

End of year?
One thing about travelling is that it will make you lose track of time.
While traveling, we live day by day. Occasionally thinking ahead such as the flight 2 days later and an event 3 days ago.
Before i can realise it, its 1 more day to the last day of the year! and 2 more days to the start of the year! 3 more days to leaving canada! and depending on the time delay, we can say that its 4 more days to reaching back singapore!
And here i am , spending my last few days in canada staying in a Canadian's house! Enjoying their warm hospitality. As the saying goes, when you are at home you depend on your family; when you are outside you depend on your friends.
I never expect friends from overseas will welcome me with such warmth. I know i will do so if friends from overseas come over at my place but it just feel so awkward accepting kindness from others while having nothing to repay. Well, i'm not those type of people who goes about leaching others good gestures you know. hmm.. maybe i do, but i only do it for negligible stuff like a piece of their food. I dont go about doing that, do i? haha..
Anyway, stan and family are so nice to let me stay over at their place for these 3 days. So much so i find it hard to request them to send me to the airport . Should i? ITs abit hard to say out loud leh. But already receive so much goodness liaoz, just one last one doesnt really matter hor? hmm...
Oh this post shld be abt the End of year? i guess i degress a little.
End of year.
So fast 2008 had ended... And it still feels like 2007 to me.
Perhaps the meaningfullness of 2007 has extended to 2008 and hopefully will continue to be so.
I can say 2008 can be split nicely into 3 parts.
1-4months
5-8 months
9-12 months
And once again, my resolutions for this coming year is the same as every year...

lock your doors!
everything was sort of perfect today.
after making contact with alex, we when shopping at time square,ate at planet hollywood and watch little mermaid musical. (certainly I would prefer the phantom of the opera but was sold out! nonetheless the mermaid is fine as well) it was about 1130pm that we reach back here and wanted to have our good night rest when something have to happen. ..
alex accidentally close to the spoil toilet door after using .
yup , the toilet door is spoil and cannot be open from the outside. so for the past 2hours we tried all means to open the door.
for alex his first instinct is to use wire to push the thing inside to open it up. whereas for me I immediately thought of destroying the lock. a pity that there isn't a hammer around and I had to resort to using a can food but to no valid.
oh my. 2hours. the door manage to open using alex way and was damage using mine. well it doesn't really matter since its already spoil I guess. just feel fortunate that its open for is to bath. I really don't know where to go at 130am in the morning to use the toilet somewhere. if any in to ed first place.

Last day in WATERLOO!
WEll, my last day in waterloo is eventful indeed.
After waking up early at 730am, i was so engross in bathing, packing whatever was left that i forgotten abt the time hence...
I realised it was 825 and the bus is scheduled to come at 831
Hence i made a dash for it only to slip over the floor of ice (it was raining yesterday and all my snow melted, becoming water and ice this morning), leaving me once again in another awkward position of bag above my head.
Subsequently, i almost slipped 3-4 times. Nope, i wasnt drunk from yesterday. I didnt even have much..
Was just across the road at 830 when i was feeling strange that no one was at the stop watiting for bus. Yup, the bus was gone and i had to make my last walk to the exam venue.
9am Start exam
REach there just nice at 858 only to realise that the classroom was full, the teacher wasnt there and everyone received their question paper.
Fortunately there is one nice guy (whom i cant rmb his face now), told me that there is another room next door.
You can see how slack the exam was, theres no teacher in the room!
The paper officially started upon my arrival.
Guess wat? 3 questions...
From the looks of the faces of the student after the paper, i dont think they can score well for that. Where was i manage to complete the first question 30 marks, secureing my pass. And the rest of the 70 marks was really to try to salvage as much as i can for i dont really know what the question is saying.. haha! i bet its the same for all of the students as well!
Lucky i'm taking this over here! cant image how it will be like if i take this in ntu... oh my..
Currently, its 1153pm, another 15 mins or so to my bus to residence! This will be my last post at this Waterloo DC library. Till now i still dont realyl know what DC stands for.
haha!! Holidays here i come!!

last night in Waterloo 2!
Ahh..!! this might be my last post until a few weeks time! Leaving my laptop with stan during my trip. Will get it back on the 29th Dec!
haha!
Tml is the exams and i just roughly know what is going on! i'm banging on the catalyst chapter which i think will be worth 50 marks. So long as i can get half of it correct, i will pass.
Well, its open book anyway and all my notes are retrived (from the bins) and in order.
IT all boils down to using whatever intelligence and wit I have left to save as much marks as possible!
I can't believe i spent my last few hrs in waterloo watching movies....Oh well, its something that i can do over here ba...
Manage to pack my stuff nicely into my luggage. But i'm not too sure abt nice though..
haha..
I didnt get enough sleep last night.
But i guess i'll be too excited to sleep tonight as well..
Many a times i dreamt of this day. And the dream so happens that i ended up forgetting something and leaving something behind.
------
OMG!!!
its now 1am! and guess what? we just had a mini drinking session! well.. its a culture here and i cant imagine me not ending my last night of waterloo here without this.
REally need to sleep laiaoz.. See you 2009 EVES!

last night in Waterloo!
Guess whats the worst thing that can happen to be leaving the place for good during the day of the last paper?
Well, I suppose it would be Accidentally disposing important notes that is crucial for the next day's open book exam during the packing.
Fortunately, I was lazy to go outside to throw all my garbage into the garbage chute and just left all the bags of thrash at the corridor downstairs.
See! Lazy can be a good thing afterall!
Apparantly, i accidentally stack the important notes with my stack of rough papers which i disposed all together at once without a second look.
Phew..
IT seems as if everyone COMPLETED their paper!
Alex finished his last week
TODAY is mang, stan, wilsern hoai...
At least I got TaeSoo to end after me! haha!

Attention
Its commonly known in psychology that middle child are often more attention seeking compared to other of the siblings. This is known as the middle child syndrome.
Its commonly known in psychology that middle child are often more attention seeking compared to other of the siblings. This is known as the middle child syndrome.
Being the eldest, the parent tend to be more cautious abit its needs and wants. Everything will be new for the eldest.
The middle child will not receive that same novelity treatment compared with the first. And before the second child is settling in to this world, the youngest child appeared and will normally received the most amount of care simply cos it is the youngest.
Despite being very self conscious, I myself use to behave in such a way to grab attention.
IT always seems so hard to get the desired attention wanted. So much so that I feel getting the attention of others require alot of effort. So much so that I started feeling strange when there are, by any chance, suddenly so much attention being drawn to me easily. Seriously, i never really visualise myself in such situation hence dont know how to react.
Or even when there is a party just for me which happen like once every leapyears, i will feel rather out of place, thinking,"is it really for me?'
Perhaps that is why even for a birthday celebration with my friends. I will normally use someone's name to get people down and most of the time for mshs friends it will be eugchua as his birthday is a week from mine. IF not it will be just a simple dinner without announcing its in fact a birthday. All these attention of people greeting just me really make me feel awkward. It just feels as if it is something bad or I'm undeserving of such reception.
Probably that is why my 21st birthday was so different from others.
I guess its really bring down to the self consciousness, to think what others think of me especially under all these attention.
A party for me is something I never really dream that I will have a chance to have it. Do i really deserve such effort put in by others?
Alot of times, it feels as though its always me who is circling around others just like the moon orbiting round the sun. I almost forgot how it feels to have someone there circling around myself, watching over me.
Hence, I was filled with joy.... ....

3 more days to GoodBye!
Guess what? I got to know 2 another NTU exchange students today! The irony is that its only 3 more days that the entire exchange in waterloo will be over for me. AND on top of this irony, will be i got to know him thru Hoai, a exchange student from France... Apparently, he get to know him during the first week of the start of the term...
Well.. Made some progress in the study today. I'm really just spotting the questions. The lecturer was kind enough to supple us with practice questions to try out, and these are questions from 5 different chapters.
So its so obvious there will be 5 questions from these 5 chapters.
i only need 25% to pass this paper as i surprisingly did quite well for the previous midterm.
Assuming i can just savage 5 marks for each question by writing the equations and some steps. Its not that hard to fail it.
BUt the problem is i dont really know the concepts behind this course. Too complicated. That is why the lecturer was so nice to feed us with the questions in the first place.
If its in ntu i will just be mugging day and night for this paper. Trying to understand what is going on.
Time to pack luggage and fen cai chan... ...

AIyoh IAIO
CAnt focus on my revision right now. Once again, life decisions on the line....
I am feeling like this because....I suddenly realised that it is possible for me to go for IO (industrial orientation 3 months during holidays) instead of IA (industrial attachment 5months), then i will have a whole semester to clear my balance module.
But then, its like ruining my entire original arrangement which i took a long time to think about.
Weighing pros and cons: Going for IO will mean changing my original plans, my MAY-July holidays will be gone.
And the thing is, i'm not too sure if i'm suppose to go for 2009 or 2010's one. ITs part of the deciding factors u know. 2010 is more auspicious to start working! haha
But then, my following 2 semesters will be reduced by ALOT.
On top of that, This scenario has always been bothering me: A,B,C required the prior knowledge of D which is taken concurrently but then D requires the prior knowledge of E which couldnt be taken due to SOMEONE's persistence hence have to be taken after ABCD has been completed.
This will be solved if I go for IO
The current situation is like you has been thinking to spend $1000 to buy an attire for a long long time. SO you save and save and save until very xin ku and you are prepared to save more after you made ur purchase. However, when you went to buy the attire, you suddenly realised that it now cost $50.
Perhaps its just the thought of working during the MAy-july holidays.
I would rather work harder during the semester than to miss my july holidays. Already got plans liaoz...
Then again, now is say say only. If i really do that, I will surely scold myself for putting this on myself. DO i seriously want to TEst my limits?

Anyway...
Anyway...
Wilsern screwed up for his paper yesterday. Among the 4 questions, he only managed to do the first. Hence, he was certained that he will failed the course. Started complaining from 3pm all the way to 7pm when we had our hrm exam.
Hoai did the nicest thing to come down to school from residence upon receiving his phone call.
Not sure if he regrets it upon knowing how weepy he can be.
Anyway,
I just learnt today that for his exam paper, the EXACT same questions came up 5 yrs ago and those who did it finish super early.
Anyway,
I got back an email from the professor from ntu.
Was expecting some confirmation of the arrangement i have made but it turned out:
Hi,
Normally, in a situation like this, I would recommend a student to do IO instead of IA so that he would have the Entire year 3 to clear off the courses.
However, if you want to do IA instead, then you would need to overload in Yr 2 sem 2 and in Yr 3.
I think it would be better for you to take unit ops 2, CH3001 control and the Yr 3 lab in Yr 3 sem 1 since unit ops 2 and CH3001 requires
knowledge of heat and mass transfer. However, it would make your yr 3 very packed. In this case, you should decide
how much you can handle if you decide to take them in year 2.
REPLIEd back and received another email the next day:
Hi ,
For information about IO, you should be able to find it in Student Link under Student Attachment.
Basically it is a 10-week internship (instead of the 22 weeks for normal IA). The period for IO will be from
Mid-May to mid-July each year. You have to find (or source) your own company for IO but you can source
Any company you like. There are 5 forms you (and the company) need to fill out once you got the attachment,
And the paperwork should be submitted to CAO (Career and Attachment office) around mid-March.
For your batch and onwards, CH3010 will only be offered in Yr 4.
Actually you are right in that Fluids is a pre-requisite for Heat and Mass. However, if you take fluids first before
Heat and Mass, then there is really not much for you to take next semester.
Among unit ops 2, CH3001 and yr 3 lab, probably best to drop CH3001.
It is okay to spread up some courses to year 4, but don’t overdo it because your year 4 will be very busy,
especially year 4 sem 2 where you have both FYP and Design 2 which will be very intensive and time-consuming.
HOW?
What will you do?

It is okay to spread up some courses to year 4, but don’t overdo it because your year 4 will be very busy,
especially year 4 sem 2 where you have both FYP and Design 2 which will be very intensive and time-consuming.
HOW?
What will you do?

7 days!
7days from now! i will have already left Waterloo for good!
haha
Suddenly miss this place already! So that means i should start snappingg more photos during this period.
All of the sudden, i remember of the tv series 7 days which a time machine was invented but is only able to bring back the person 7 days. Hence, it is only used for world wide problems.
So actually, the world is destoryed so many times but thanks to this machine, they are able to send the information back, saving the world.
If you have 7 days to change the future, what will you do?
oh no... curiosity comes in, now dling the series to watch.. haha! just first and last episode lah..

Snow Hazard!!
AND THat is when my special Letter ComeS IN!! YEAh!! haha
ITs always the case that when you are not expose to a danger, you will not know how scary it can be.
初生之犊不畏虎
And you will start to feel that it is fun until you really feel the pinch.
As you can see there are signs of danger everywhere around me. Just when i step out of my house, there are ice shards ! What if someone just so happen to be walking under and the shards just broke and come falling down?
He will be STABBED on his HEAD!
Then if the guy hear a crack and look up when the shards drop. Wouldnt he be pierced in his eyes, mouth or throat and die?
K lets say he survive the shard but was seriously wounded. He will need a place to sit down to rest right? What will he think if the bench happens to be like this?
Most prob his bottoms will be frozen or something.
But lets say he recover quickly and wanted to rush down to the bus stop. The walkway was fortunately cleared by some machine but it ended up like this.
Would he just slip and fall on the ice and hit his head one some ice and die?
Assuming he manage to mantain his balance.Now wanting to cross the road to the other side but the snow pushing machine pushed the snow to the side of the road like this
Wouldnt be the guy be stranded on the road awaiting for a car to knock him over. Then lets say he has long legs to take a big step across the wall of snow. There is a high chance that upon stepping over, he may lost the footings and fall backwards back to the road and once again be knock down by the car.
Fortunately managed to get to the bus stop and starting to wait for the bus. And a jogger came running through. Notice he/she was fully cloth and wouldnt be able to see what is around due to the limited visual area restricted by the hood. See another possible danger?
Then the bumpy ride that the bus will be going thru due to the ice crystal on the road? Pheww!
Imagine what will happen if there is a bike?! 
Remember the kerb of the road is filled with snow?
i had my own danger when i was boarding the bus when my wallet dropped. On dry land, it is supposed to fall on the pedestrain side. But due to the snow, it slide down to the road and continued a distance under the bus. A distance is not a cm or two but the entire arm length away.
Try lying down on the wet and cold pedestrain to reach out for your wallet under the bus. Urgh..
But when there are bad things happening, there will always be good things follow
AND THat is when my special Letter ComeS IN!! YEAh!! haha

Just a dinner
I always dont like to involve myself in guys' talk. At times it feels rather superficial to be talking abt such stuff. Perhaps largly i dont really think about such stuff hence doesnt know how to reply when in such topic.
"Do you like tall girls?"wilsern asked,"or you prefer shorter girls?"
"How abt dark girls or fair girls?'he continued
"Pretty or cute ones?".. and the questions continue.
Its like how am i supposed to answer such questions? (shld i have a answer to that in the first place?)
When people like someone, he will like the everything ma. Its the whole package that make someone so special.
When you like someone, means you like someone ma. Dont have why one.
ITs not like you like the person because the person is short, then suddenly grow very tall then you say dont like right?
And Not as if i say i like darker girls, then i restrict myself from liking those who are not.
Having a goal in mind is good. In terms of achievement and stuff.
But relationship is not like sieving out people that doesnt meet your criteria, and whatever is left is the one. Or is it?
Limiting ourselves which such critiera will just gear us into one expectation.
Hmm is that all guys talk all about?
Anyway,
ONE MORE MONTH TILL NEW YEAR! MEANING ONE MORE MONTH TO TRIP BACK TO SINGAPORE!

Planner
Well, a not so guilty way to wonder off from the battleplan is to do something 'important'.
So i went to the stars planner once again to plan. Its important right? and the registration is this thrus night! Its urgent i must say.
It appears to be the case that there is another psych course that pop out suddenly. Asian context something something. It fits into my schedule nicely. Actually its not that nice cos monday will have not lunch break.
(its under my plan 3 for fans who are wondering)
Eitherway, both plan 2 and 3 add up to 27Aus. Its a breathdefying feat i must say. Most prob i will drop the core course and reduce it to 24Aus. That will sound alot better i guess.
2 lab (2+3=5au)
1 yr2 core (4)
3 yr 3 core (4+4+3=11)
1 Psych (4)
-----------------
Total: 24
This will leave next yr balance of:
1 lab (2)
4 yr 2 core (4+3x3=13)
1 yr 3 core (3)
1 core ele (3)
-------------
total: 21
And if everything goes smoothly, the only problem i will have left is the choice of 1 more psych course to clear my minor. This will be another thing to think abt in 2 yrs time! haha!.
Set!
