Brief conversation at chem lab earlier today:
me: Hey titration! What kind of titration are you doing?
mengshi: with FA1 and FA2.
I still can't get used to jc life. Either you know everything and falling asleep in lectures or you think you know it but fail horribly in it.
Epic lol of the week: In my GP diagnostic, i got a spelling error for the word "it".

Post number 250!
Running for council! (please don't laugh)
Yeah. I'm running for council. What a surprise move! But its going to be my last 2 years in RI and I want to make my time here count for something. I really hope i make it through the interview and campaigning.
I got rejected for Bio Olympiad selection. Curse you selection board. Got matthew lee and chew hongen dont need me ah? (actually yes, matthew and hongen can solo the IBiO and pwn the rest of the world with their hands tied to their blindfold while being towed by a speedboat in a swimming pool). But it still came as a pretty big shock ._.
Going for first archery training this friday. I hope there's nothing too extreme, cos my legs still hurt from being a retard during and after PE lesson.
2 is better than 1.

argh i havent blogged in a very long time.
First things first. RIP project is a killer. Not that i have any difficulty thinking of good project ideas, but my proposal got shot down because it requires the use of large expensive equipment and difficult-to-procure chemicals. (another reason is that the bacteria in my experiment is capable of causing tubercolosis but i still think rj rejected it cos of budget issues)
My 3rd pair of earphones have finally died after one year of usage! Its funny how alll my earphones keep dying after exactly one year, regardless of price (my first cost 10bucks, my 3rd cost about a hundred i think). I think this time i shall switch to a good sturdy pair of headphones for a while.
I watched Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief today, and i was rather disappointed with the flow and the storyline. I mean the story was about greek mythology, but there were only snippets of actual mythology references, and there was not much effort to tie in greek mythology into the storyline.
There was also the issue of the romantic(?) subplot between percy and the daughter of athena. It started extremely abruptly and illogically, and was not resolved at the end of the movie. This left me very confused. If you're going to include a romantic subplot, it should be properly developed and concluded! Not rushed and erratic like this!
ZZZZ. i feel sleepy and irritable thanks to the biora project. i need some sleep.

Today's medsoc talk was a complete waste of time.
The seniors that came decided to spend the first 1 and a freaking half hours playing pictionary and taboo instead of actually telling us what their SIG is about.
And the best part. NO cca points. only 25% attendance required. And the senior can't even tel me what an opthamologist does. What the holy hell. Medsoc fail.
Went for GP tuition today, and i can't stop wondering why are caucasians so tall!

Today's GP diagnostic was very wierd.
The topic was mass media, so i spent 45 mins churning out a half-hearted argument on why we should not bother to read newspapers. I think i will mess it up.
Ever since moving to the rjc side of the campus, i can't help but notice that rjc smells too.....nice. Its somewhat slightly unnerving. I think i prefer RI's grimy sweaty leave-pe-attire-in-aircon-room smell.
Jc tutorial and lecture notes make my bag very very heavy.

RJ school life has officially started, and i'm really not used to the new environment and system of learning.
Which would probably explain how i ended up ponning pe lesson without being aware of what i had just done. Thanks davin.
I can't decide what i dislike more: lectures or tutorials. Lectures can sleep, but tutorials can random around. ZZZ. Rj life makes me very sleep deprived.
Random exchange during pw tutorial (our tutor is called mr steffan toh):
Mr toh: I am not a man u fan.
Davin: then what fan are you, sir?
Me: He is a stefFAN.
(class stones for several seconds before groaning loadly)
Arguing/debating with dom lo in the middle of econs lecture is quite fun.
This is sylvia the goat. Say hi!

Orientation. What can i say?
BW05, its been great knowing all of you. Thank you all for making orientation so awesome, and also for putting up with all my nonsense (and to giam and kuss, thanks for joining in lol). 3 cheers for taking 2+ hours to decide on things too haha
Batch dance is incredibly fun after you stop messing up every single step, and even more fun when you can do the girls' steps as well.
OMGman FTW!
