on S5 gathering & US Open

Wow it's been a week since my last update, though I don't remember doing much.

The 3 day long Raya weekend was a great time to catch up on some sleep, and also to meet up with the S5 gang! A farewell gathering for Jing Xin, Shien Yin and Wen Zhen who are headed to UK. It always feels good to meet up with high school friends. I think all of us are even closer than during our time at CHS. Perhaps absence does make the heart grow fonder. So it's nice to meet up once in a while, just to see what everyone has been up to :)

This gathering was a chance to break the boring, dull routine life of a student. Some joy was much needed. I don't know why but I seem to be getting bored of Uni stuff really quickly this semester. Nothing about Uni really interests me anymore. And the thought of the exams coming soon scares me. I am really unprepared. *gulp*


Ohh and today was the men's singles final of the US Open and Nadal has won there for the first time! I saw a little bit of the final against Djokovic, it was quality tennis. The rallies I saw were long. Happy that Rafa toughed it out, and finally completed the Career Slam! Right now he has won 3 consecutive grand slams (French, Wimbledon, US). If he wins the Australian Open next Jan, then he would make it a Calendar Slam i think... meaning winning the four different Slams in a row. Either way this man is already in the history book.

As for the women, Kim Clijsters has successfully defended her title to extend her winning record at the US Open. Really impressive.


I'm so glad this Thursday (16th Sept a.k.a. Malaysia Day) is a public holiday. I could really use the extra time to work on assignments and really get a grip on things! I've been working on low efficiency for so long and it's not amusing at all >.<

Boy it's getting dusty

hahaha sorry for the absence if you're still reading this blog!

Well you know the drill. I said this so many times.
Been rushing for one assignment after another.
It never stops, seriously. Just when I think I can relax, more stuff approaches the dead line.

I admit to lazing around like a sloth again.
It's hard to push myself and finish the work early. There's no motivation.
Last minute pressure IS my motivation now.
I'm losing interest in it all.
Science has never been this dull.
I wonder how I'm going to get through 3 more semesters.

I already have a prediction that results this sem will not be good.
I have skipped a handful of lectures and tutorials.
Plus there's hardly any time for revision.
Even if there was, I wouldn't have the motivation.

You get the drill.

I have been missing tennis again.
It's all I wanna do.
And listen to music, watch Grey's Anatomy and sleep regular hours!
Last night I slept at 3.30am and woke up at about 7.20am. New record haha.
Nothing to be proud of though.

I need a holiday. Luckily a long weekend for Raya is approaching.
I miss the high school days. The gang, the class, the club, the light work load compared to now haha. University life seems so vague. I don't even know what I mean. It's just...... vague.

Bahhhh i'm just complaining for the sake of taking time off from working on a lab report.
Take care everyone, and stay strong no matter what you're going through now! :)
