What's rollin'?

Last weekend was really fun, but back to reality now. The TA for my communications class has thrown our class a lifeline by pushing back the essay outline deadline for a week. Okay, that gives me ample time to meet with my writing tutor and try to figure out how to write a university essay. I'm starting to feel the strain of taking TWO 9 credit courses..the workload is no joke. I mean, these 2 weeks i've had it easy with no readings for Scientific Change but monday holidays are running low, so that means i'd have no freaking life during the weekends!! Unless i read every night. No end to it OMG. Okay panic attack over. In Poly, at least the window is only 7 weeks so its not that bad if you just study all the way, but this, is like, the pace of lessons in poly(1 week 1 topic), the term length of JC/secondary school(12 weeks), and thrice the amount of work. Just some analogy on Uni.

Enough of feeling impending doom. Mom will say, just take it as it comes. True.. note to self: stop thinking ahead.

So last weekend, or last friday night, we celebrated Mooncake Festival by eating mooncakes of course and drinking tea. After that, Jiun Ruey n Jiun Yiing and i sat at the table and talked. It was nice, like bonding. and then, they came up to my room and talked some more. of course it was getting late and i had to wake up early the next day for the apple picking trip to Whitby with MSSA. So it was the 2nd day in a row where i slept late and woke up early.

Anyhooo, saturday morning, went to school early and only Nicki and Mingshen was there so we waited for others to come, after that Kyle came in his car and so i went in his really cool car with Johann, Shuxia and Sarah. The apple picking was really fun, met more people, Ruth, who is a 3rd year NUS exchange student and Vannie, who has lived all over the world, it was interesting to meet all of 'em. We got into a sort of apple fight in the middle of the orchard, with MS initiating the fight, lol, it was really funny as we threw apples at people a couple of rows away, but the bush was really thick so they couldn't really tell who or where the apples were coming from, so its like, throw the apples, wait a few seconds then, 'OI! ' and some other local exclamations..some amused canadians were standing by watching. I bought our Thanksgiving dessert, apple pie naturally and bought a bottle of apple cider to sample. We had fish and chips for lunch, its one of those small town sort of places so the people were really nice, they gave us 10 percent discount for each and everyone. Whitby is a really great place!

and then sunday was back to reading and studying bleargh...Sunday wasn't good.

So that was it.. my last chance to have a life during the weekends. Even our profs tell us, get a life only 4 years from now. Hmm, i will have a life in the summer and winter break.

I'm spending the winter break studying again....for DRIVING!! *does not mind at all*

hope you guys are doing all right and enjoying the rest of your holidays.. take care! *smiley face*
