Its funny to see that vanessa is experiencing the same things I did one semester ago. Maybe everyone who joins the exchange programe will also feel the same like us. I also used to worry over things like shampoo going to finish, stored food turning bad, calculating expenses, not enough luggage space, thinking of the comfortable life back in singapore with my maid helping me to do my laundry and cook for me.

This makes me wonder how the next batch of 4 singaporeans after us in university of hertfordshire are doing now. Did they see the snow or travel to other european countries? Did they join the HOST programme? Did they celebrate easter day over there? Did they get to know the caucasian or asian undergrads? What do they cook for dinner? Did they get to see prince william or any celebrity while walking on the streets of london? Did they visit any pub or attend any party??
How are my housemates? Arh... daniel!!!!

Then it also makes me wonder how Qinyi, Shuangning, yonggeng and other friends of mine are coping in uk.


After slacking for 3 days due to wisdom tooth and the quiz, I shall declare that my mugging actions shall take effect from tomorrow onwards. Im only left with 1 or 2 AA306 lessons for this sem. =)

I cant stand eating porridge lately, so I decided to eat noodles chopped into small pieces. My gum still swells a bit.

I must treasure the last few days we have in hall before we graduate. Final sem... the last exam in ntu. Maybe i will miss the schooling and mugging days in future, but right now I can't wait to be done with exams.

I have to depend on the painkiller. The pain is excruciating. Porridge diet for the next 1 wk =(

My gum swelled again yesterday immediately after the quiz. Luckily it was immediately after the quiz. The swell was so bad (not as bad as last time though) that I decided to visit a dentist at JP just now.

THis dentist is a very young and handsome guy. He examined and said my swollen gum is really bad. The moment when he told me that he will try to extract my wisdom tooth today I feel as if its the end of the world. He applied anethetic on my left side. Its a funny feeling because the left side of my face went numb. But he's so good that I didnt even know the tooth had been extracted out till he showed me about my tooth. Maybe its the wonders of anethetic. No surgery was needed; he merely plucked it out. I kept the tooth with me. It looks disgusting and when i showed it to seowling and sheila they almost fainted. Cheers to you dentist!

Come to think of it the tooth extraction process isnt scary. Probably its the after-effect.

Hatfield is snowing these few days!!!!!! It must have been a pretty sight to see the small little houses and the field covered in white. Argh lucky scott and kelvin. Dino why you go back to msia?? haha.. The feeling is weird. The whole exchange programme was like a dream. It seems like im living in the reality while my friends in uk are still living in my dreamland! Hey guys, i hate to say it but I really missed the times in uk.

206 presentation is done!!!!! YEAH!!!!!

Just when i was praising Deloitte for its good welfare in my previous blog entry, Jiemin's friend discouraged me to be an auditor in deloitte. He's the 'N'th person telling me that auditor is the worst job in the world. His gf used to work in DT and quitted after working for 1.5 yrs. His friend really discouraged me, saying that its not worth the $$. Maybe I should join NIE after working for a while in deloitte??? ARgh why cant I have a stable and happy job? I thought i am happy because im secured with a job now.

Dinner + durian at geylang last night. Thats fun!

I sincerely apologise to miss yeo yeo and jean the bear bear for spreading the flu virus to them. I should have gone home on monday. But i truly feel fortunate that my friends still take good care of me when I was so sick on tuesday. I must treasure this group of friends.

I feel strong once again despite coughing badly during 206 meeting. At least today I can walk to school for meeting and doctor consultation. I love my 206 group because they are all so crappy and yet we do our work quickly and efficiently. im grateful to them and i apologise for being a free rider in 206. I think the exchange programme partly attributes to my poor attitude in school work for this semester.

3 cheers for my 205 group. Initially i was quite worried because i had to work with some yr 2 undergrads, but they are so cute!! They will just make me laugh so much during each meeting. Hong han wished me good luck in my work in deloitte, good luck to suyi for instep application, and to Jac and xie yuan who will do us proud in 205 ( so funny). Lastly, i wish hong han a happy exchange programme in netherlands next sem.

Im blessed with good teammates this sem. =)

Deloitte is so concerned about us! It sent an email wishing us good luck in our exams! Earlier on they sent chinese new year cards to us! Wow... confirm gd welfare!

Flu. Sore throat. Fever. Cough. I feel like a feeble, old woman now, too weak to even go see the doctor at south spine. 2 wks ago was fever and swollen gum due to wisdom tooth, now im sick again. This is torturous.

I wish everyone a good health to do anything you want.

Im really happy. I cleared my 306 presentation yesterday after spending days studying on equity and consolidation. YEAHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The 2nd happy piece of news is that yetserday was also my last lesson for AA205. Double happiness!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The 3rd happy thing is I went to celebrate xue jun's bday with my classmates at PS.

Life is so gd!!!!!!!!!!!

I must describe to you guys how happy i was yesterday. Im so happy now that I dont feel ilke studying anymore. Seriously my gpa is beyond hope, so I just hope to pass with a decent grade and graduate soon.

I took bus 857 yesterday. I saw a lot of 'mas selamat' lookalike in serangoon. SEriously, its really hard to catch him because quite a few of them look like him.

I was very pissed off this morning. Woke up early in the morning and headed towards Malaysian Embassy with mama to renounce my msian citizenship. Things that angered me:
1) No counter, no instruction on where to queue and which department to go
2) Form to be filled up is in Malay, no English form
3) Unfriendly service attendent. She asked me if i have brought my Singapore citizenship. You mean Singapore citizenship is a thing? How to bring? And I dont know that what she wants is the certificate of Singapore citizenship, which I dont know how it looks it. Almost quarrelled with her.
4) Lastly, after settling everything, she told me to come back on 17th April for an appointment. APPOINTMENT TO RENOUNCE MY MSIAN CITIZENSHIP?

I was really pissed off. I know i was quite bad towards my mama but i was so angry because I dun know why I need to go through so much of trouble.

I realised when I was young I had a Msian passport.All the while I thought I am a Singaporean. Im now a 'dual citizenship', someone who is confused with her own citizenship. Should I sing Marikita, or should I shout 'Malaysia Boleh!' ????

I saw this video clip saying no to NTU triple sharing room. Interesting and funny, but the makers of the clip are so free to make such a clip.

Was looking for 'Fried Rice Paradise' mp3 by Dick Lee, but found the muscial performed during President STar Charity 07. So cute! I love this song. The lyrics is so cute!!!!

By the way, does anyone have this mp3?

Saturday Night Fever by Hady & Darren


Wow... i find this charity show cool~ I missed it last yr in uk.

My gum is still a little swollen. Im afraid it may never subside because it has been like this for days.

AFter hearing 5 pple describing their tooth extraction experience, I dont dare to pluck out my wisdom tooth anymore. CAll me humji i dont care. CAn I dont pluck it out????????????

Deloitte sent me a letter informing that I can start work on 8/9/2008. At first i read it as 9/8/2008 and i realised its national day. No no.. its 8/9/2008. I start work in September?? Oh no... Can i change to August?

Busy.. but im not sure what im busy with.

Im so proud of myself for taking 306 quiz. Dont know why. Not as if I have finished studying hedging. Not as if I know what the hell swap is. Im proud because I want to take the quiz. PArtly to test myself how well i know of the topic. Partly to weigh my cleverness and stupidity. Stupidity outweighs cleverness, and I dont quite know the topics well either. Good, but I cant help feeling relieved after the test (abnormal behaviour).

Grad trip. Think should be finalised. The places im going with huili will be China, Hong kong and Taiwan. Budget is about $2+ to $3K. If the total cost is too much, we'll exclude one of the places. =) I believe we'll still have fun in Asia. Im feeling a bit excited about it hahaha. Checking out the fares next week. Hopefully the weather is cooling when we go. I dont dare to tell mama about the grad trip HAHAHAHA.

I bought a hard disk. Im so happy about it. Im downloading movies and songs like nobodys business. =)=)=)=)

Im beginning to like 306. I hate 206.

Finally consulted a dentist regarding my swell. I had fever yesterday night. Ice cubes dont seem to do much of help to my swell. The swell is so bad that I couldn't sleep well and brush teeth. It's the size of a pingpong ball. My maid got a shock when I woke up getting ice cubes. I cant open my mouth. I can only eat porridge. The dentist said its a very bad infection and prescribed some medicine for me. Will pluck the tooth out when im no longer swelling. Im so scared of the surgery!!! And Im given 2 days of mc.

Toothache is back to haunt me again. face swells again and now its loopsided. By now im sure everyone would have asked me to pluck it out. But IM A SCALLY CAT. Just let me complain and at the same time let the nature takes its course. The pain will go off soon. I know im very stubborn, but all of u know how scared im afraid of surgery.

Seriously, this time round im goign to screw up my 206 quiz.
