free day today but decided to stay home (just like the weekend that just passed) so that i can study n prepare for my upcoming test.. yea for this semester i have the most number of tests during term time... 7 in total.. just completed 1 yesterday and the lecturer said that it's easier than the previous test that we took under the same module.. i seriously doubt so.. and hmm 1 more test coming up this sat..yea there isnt any typo.. saturday! coz the lazy lecturer cant book any venue for the test at the last minute.. then had to settle for either wed or sat.. and as usual he only heard the front part of the lecture theatre shouting SATURDAY! and not the local students at the back saying wednesday! then when he decided to schedule it on the saturday.. he asked wat time..9-11 or 1-3... same thing happened so the test is gonna be on saturday..9-11am.. there goes my slp again

on a happier note, not many ppl know about this..and i cant remember if i blogged about it b4.. but some time ago i applied for a course in the university of chicago...a master of science in financial maths
-- edited: haha ok.. i went to read my previous posts n yea i did blog about it =X on 30 jan =X --
and i received an email from the admissions department..not sure if they call it that but anyway.. they sent me an email to tell me that i've been accepted into the program! they'll be sending a mail all the way from chicago too so i think will be receiving that mail by the end of the week~ so i guess i wont be working full time until next year but i m thinking of doing an internship instead.. not sure if any1 will accept a graduate as an intern waiting for enrollment into a graduate course.. will have to find out then but that will wait until next week since i have a test this sat and an assignment due on mon! the list just never stops.. tests and assignments~~

this is really random but i have to say.. i quite like the eastern part of sg.. probably coz i've been living here all my life.. haha actually for the 1st 2 months of my life, i was still staying at marine parade.. then after that we shifted over to my current home and i dun think there r plans to shift out of this house anytime within the next few years.. i'm happy with this place even though it's freakin ulu.. have to walk 10mins to the nearest food stall.. 15-20mins to the mrt station.. only a 5min walk to the bus stop but the bus takes 15mins to come.. not to mention the occasional stray cats and dogs that appear out of nowhere and wander around at night when u're walking home.. haha and recently.. there was a wild monkey spotted by my mother.. i havent seen it yet but as i was saying.. i like the east.. it gives a different kind of feeling.. feels very relaxed.. very serene yea but u'll get a totally different feeling when u are at the north or west.. just a different aura..i wont say it's not good..just feels different that's all =X

it finally rained! and on a day that i dun have to wake up early... so means a great sleep! ahhaha but still feeling tired.. oh man gotta admit that age is catching up... damn scary

been almost a month since i updated.. haha loads have happened but not very exciting news anyway.. things like chinese new year... midterm testsssss... nothing really great to talk about.. but wat i really wanna talk about is something really different from all my previous posts

this was wat happened... about 2 weeks ago.. my jc class had a gathering to go visit our fmaths tutor...since it was still cny so visiting her during cny would be a very good idea.. we caught up with one another and i learnt that some of them r enjoying their work.. 1 of them has a really good paying job but he has to work very long hours..got money also cant spend.. =X and another 1.. bought himself a car already.. even when he is still studying just like me.. i have no idea where he got his $ from but it got me thinking.. it's time for me to transit from being supported by my parents to supporting myself and of coz my parents when my dad officially retires...

so lately i've been calculating how much i would need to spend on a monthly basis in order to do so.. and after some time... i've decided that my 1st major target after getting a job is to get a car.. a small one would do..something like jazz or swift would be cool... 1 of the reasons that made me decide this is coz my dad is using the car all the time... to go to work.. to go for functions.. go meetings...so he goes out early in the morning and often returns home at around 8+ 9+.. and many times when my mum wans to go out n buy some stuff (i dunnoe why but most of the times... it's bulky or heavy stuff) she sometimes will drag me along to walk out...take bus... shop... carry the stuff...take bus..come home.. pretty troublesome but it would be much better with another car around... wat's the use of a license without a car rite? haha

went to the dentist on sunday n he strongly encourages me to put on braces.. i m still quite uncertain with that idea though now i'm leaning more towards putting them on.. he says my jaw is so small that my bottom teeth r all cramped up and that's the reason why my wisdom tooth isnt out yet.. no space to come out -_-" anybody can advise on the inconveniences with braces on??
