How is My College Life?

How do we live our college lives?
Most of friends said that as college students, we must enjoy life! Don't just study the whole day!
Ya, I also agree with them. For me, I think college students should enjoy life but it does not mean that we do not need to take care of our studies! All things must be balance. You can't be studying whole day! My teacher told me, we should study for 30 minutes, then we must take a 5 minutes break. Other than studies, we must also maintain the relationships with friends. To do so, we can't be in the room whole day, like a bear hibernates in a cave during winter. I recommend college students to have their own blogs. Blogging is not a waste of time. It's not only encouraging me to express myself, it's also acting as my public diary. I can refer back to all these posts after a few years, when all the things can be different then. I can recall all the golden memories that I have here. This is what we called "life experiences".
I think we should do all the crazy things when we have the chance to do so but DO NOT OVER THE BORDER. I've done some of the things that normal people won't practice. I slept with Ah Ching and Ah Ting on two combined beds. I created a game called "pok pok choi". We played water while we were bathing. We eat together, joke together, study together, play together... I just wish that time will stop here but it's impossible. What I can do now is cherish the time left for us to live together. :-(

My First Night! 'o' !!!

I gave my first night to who? Ah Ching and Ah Ting. Actually nothing has happened. I just slept in their room last night. We combined the two beds and I slept at the middle. Ah Ching has invited me many times already. Since we were planning to study sociology together, so I decided to sleep in her room last night. That night wasn't a very good night because sleeping at the middle of two beds is not comfortable at all. Ah Ching's bed is newer than Ah Ting's bed, thus, one bed is higher than the other and I slept in the middle of both beds. Can you imagine it?
After I slept, Ah Ting opened the air-con which made the room became very cold. I was awaken by the coldness in the room. I was too lazy to move my body so I just ignored it. In the end, I am sick now-FLU. I didn't sleep well last night. Luckily, I still can remember a bit what I have studied last night. Ohya, today my stomach was very painful. I think it's caused by the "mua ji" that Ah Ting bought it from a club. Nevermind, since I'm feeling better now.
Okay, back to the first night. Even though I criticized on it, it will still be one of the memories I can't forget in my life. I won't forget the happy time that I had with Ah Ching and Ah Ting in 4th floor, Block S, INTI-UC. Oh, there's another add-on point. My butt has been molested by Ah Ting's leg 10 times. She used her leg to touch or push it when I was studying. Maybe she wanted to test the sponginess of it. Haha!!! Just kidding.

At Last! Socio Test is Over!

After studying like hell for I don't know how many days, I took my sociology test. Out of thirty, I don't know how many marks I can get but I do hope the mark is high as I really study hard for this time. I don't know whether I do well in the test or not, but I do glad that it's over. This is the first time I really study hard. When I was in secondary school, I have never studied like this before, maybe only before important exam in the school, such as SPM and PMR. I can't imagine that I really do all the assignment that the teachers gave me, which is not my usual style. I was the bad, naughty and lazy student last time. I don't know when did I change. Maybe environment or the friends do have effect on me, making me change to a better student. I like this change. However, to maintain this change is not an easy task. I need to discipline myself, which is my weakest part. DISCIPLINE! If I could discipline myself, I wouldn't be playing games, watching movies, chatting...all the time without taking my studies seriously. I'm very impressed by people who can be consistent in his work and can achieve his dream no matter what happen, for instant, Dr. Lim Ho Peng. This is what I couldn't do it my whole life.

.Which One is More Important? Happiness? Or Achievement ( dreams)?

I'm facing so many problems now. All these problems can only be solved by myself. When someone is having pressure, and I mean huge pressure, he won't be able to be happy or optimistic. He will lose his smile and cheerful face. He can't remember when is the last time he smiled. He certainly won't remember how his laugh was sounded. When everyone is improving but you are standing at the same place without even moving a step forward, what do you feel? Don't tell me you feel nothing. If you know the feeling, then you will know what I'm feeling right now.

Do you know that sometimes when a person is smiling, doesn't mean that he is happy? Even though you may think that the person is a very cheerful person and he smiles or laugh every single day, but is he really happy? I mean TRUE happiness. Someone told me a sentence before. He told me that "no matter you are sad or happy, you also have to live, then why don't you try to live your life happily?". I know the person is telling me the truth but, do you think that everyone is able to make himself happy everyday? I don't think so and it is true. However, we must also try our best to live happily, at least we try.

Most people think that we should pursue our own dreams and things that we want. If what we chase will only give us satisfaction but not happiness, then is it worth to be chased?

ENL Presentation Has Over! What Things Come After It?

At last, my ENL presentation has over. I did not do well in this presentation. My english standard really have a huge gap between all my classmates. After this presentation, in the future, there will always be another one. I can't be lucky everytime in a presentation or interview. How am I going to face it in the future?
Next, it is the time to face my sociology test. I thought I can study tonight but I failed. I was watching movie the whole night while my roommate was studying. Really contrasting, right? Tomorrow is Friday! Is my friend, Ah Heong's birthday! Hope my friend, Ah Ching and I will have a "bear bear hong" night. Haha! I sure most people will not understand what is "bear bear hong". This is the secret between her and me. I don't know whether we can have a bear bear hong night because we need to study sociology. I think after socio, there will still be calculus. The second test for calculus. So depressed now but I still can't control myself not to play around but to concentrate on my studies. (sigh......)

Presentation and Sociology Test!!! :-(

Oh no! After csc, there is stil socio test! I thought it'll be on next Friday but the lecturer set it to be on Wednesday! Only have 1 week to study all the four chapters! This time the test is 30 marks, not like last time, only 5 marks... :-(

Tomorrow is my presentation day for ENL. Tonight i need to settle all the presentation thing, especially the timing. I must make sure I don't talk more than 7 minutes and not less than 5. My presentation mark is about 20%. It's quite a lot. So I must do well in it and gain confident in speaking through this presentation. I'm so scared! I'm bad in speaking and I'm always nervous in speaking, especially in oral test, presentation and interview! Don't know what is going to happen tomorrow. =.=

CSC test has just over!

At last, my csc test is over. Actually the test is not so hard but because i didn't study hard enough, i left 2 essay questions blank. Thus, i lost 6 marks already. After the csc test is TOEFL class but i didn't go. Tomorrow I have a presentation, ENL presentation. Speaking is the thing that i scare the most, including interview. So I don't know whether I can succeed in the presentation or not. I haven't finish compiling or rearranging my ENL file too, which is needed to submit to my lecturer tomorrow. After tomorrow, I think I have to start studying again. This time will be sociology. Sociology mid-term test is coming soon! This time is not just 5 marks, it is 30 marks. Last time i didn't do well but luckily it is only 5 marks but this time I really need to make sure I will answer the essay questions good enough to get me at least 25 over 30, which is a very tough task. No point complaining now, right? So, I'm going to prepare my presentation and arrange my ENL file now.
