I'm back here to blog! It's been almost a month. Heehees. Exam results were released two weeks ago and to my surprise, I passed all 4 modules and attained scores beyond my expectations! Credit for Buyer Behaviour, Distinction for Market Research, and High Distinction for Management Accounting for Biz and Sales Strategy and Communication Skills. Really can't believe it, seriously. But maybe the credit should go to my projects and tests as I've gotten quite high marks for those. No matter what, I've gotta work harder to maintain my GPA.
Now SIM is using a new system and we have to register for the classes ourselves, choose our own timetable. I'm done with the registration last Friday and I'll only have classes for 3 days every week for next semester! However, one of the days is from 8.30am to 6.30pm with 4 hours break. So, should I be happy for having only 3 days of classes? Maybe yeah. It's every student's wish to have lesser number of days of classes.
Exams are over!!! Should be relieved, happy but I'm worried about the results. Somehow, having a bad premonition. Please, don't. I don't wanna repeat any module, I don't wanna go thru the torture once more. 4 modules 1 sem is already a lot. I don't wanna add more. I don't know why my performance has deteriorated so much. I've studied everything but all doesn't enter into my head. What do you mean by understanding? How do you know if you've understood or not? Sometimes I felt I understood the concept, but sometimes I just end up memorizing and not understanding. NO, if I don't understand, how is it that I'm able to explain the points in the exam in my own words? Anyway, still out of 3 qns, I'm only able to explain in my own words for only one qn and I'm not sure if the answer is correct. I know myself, I don't expect much, just let me pass the modules. ALL OF THEM!! I've studied so hard. Cried now and then, when I can't get the points in my head. That one and a half weeks feels like a year to me.
Since I have some free time now, I shall blog. My 3 tests were over. Now, I'm waiting for my results which I don't know how and where I'll get to know it. Don't really have a good feeling for the first 2 tests. The only one that I can really do is my last test. It's been so long since I last studied for tests and exams. So feeling kinda hard to absorb everything. Read everything today and forgot everything the next day, ok, or at least still remember a bit but not too much detail. People always says that you must read AND understand, then apply. Have to start studying for exams soon. It seems so tough. But for now, projects are more important. Due dates are nearing, 10 sept, 12 sept etc. Gonna chiong them already. The next two days and whole of next week are scheduled for project meetings. Fully packed! All 4 assignments are reports. Luckily it's group project, otherwise my brain surely crack if I do the whole report alone.

Hi there! I'm now in week 5 of school already. Projects are piling up already. Previous post mentioned that I'll blog on 27 July but it seems like my "tomorrow" is a few days later. Anyway, gonna be busy with projects and tests soon again, in fact we're starting on our projects already. Next week is supposed to be study week and we'll be having our tests the following week. 4 modules, 4 different groups, 4 different time for meeting. I gonna mix the meeting dates all up sooner or later. It's not that I never take down, it's just that I can't remember every date, have to keep referring to my notebook. This is the first time I have a guy in 3 out of 4 of my project groups. In poly, I've been grouping with my girl friends. Out of so many modules, I've only grouped with guys only on 3 or 4 projects. But it's because there's only 3 guys in my poly class, so unless the teacher requested or any other "factor", then there'll be a guy in my group. So... I still have this awkwardness around guys. It's like after secondary school, I've never really talked to a guy outside projects before. Hmm... I've not found a guy whom I can talk comfortably with... I also want to be in love. I also want to be loved. Sometimes, I'm really curious who I'd end up with. Who is he? Where is he? Sometimes I really want to go into the future and search for the answers...
My university life started two weeks ago... Hope I didn't count wrongly.. This is my third week of school. It's like so fast, I'm in the third week already! The lectures for the first 2 weeks were conducted by RMIT lecturers. When I went into the lecture hall on the first day, the lecture hall is so big, a lot of other students but I know none of them. But in fact, I'm not alone! I realized that I'm in the same course as one of my secondary school friend. Are you wondering how can I not know that I'm in the same course as my friend? Although I'm a Leo, I'm not really good at socializing. Or maybe passable in socializing but doesn't really take the initiative to message them sometimes, ask about their current life etc. I can be friends with anyone but it takes a long time for them to be my close friends. I admit that I don't open up easily. Anyway, it's good to have a companion in school.
The RMIT lecturers... some are likeable? Their lessons quite enjoyable. Some... no words. On the first day of school, after the lecturer started talking, my heart was thinking "Ah, die, if every RMIT lecturer speaks like that". I don't know it's because of his accent or because he didn't use a mic, just using his voice, raising his voice. That's why it was so hard to hear, understand and catch what he's talking. But then, I don't have this problem with the subsequent lecturers. I can catch what they said. Nevermind, it doesn't matter, he only teaches us for that 3 days. From now onward, it's the local lecturer teaching us and she's way much better! The other 3 RMIT lecturers are also better than the first one.
We're now starting on our projects. It seems early, cos' it's only week 3, but actually it's not. We've got a lot to do. Come to think of it, during poly, we had 4-6 modules in one sem. Most of them have projects and we usually would start doing 1-2 weeks before the deadline and amazingly, we can still complete AND it's NOT sloppy work. We still got a good grade, ok? My most satisfied work in poly is that Global Business Environment module's report and presentation. Cos' that's the only report got praised by the teacher and this report is completed last minute. Rushed the report till 3, 4am, waiting for members' parts to be sent in, editing, referencing. But am I too good of a person? Helping my sick member do her part, allow her go home to rest, leaving me alone in school and do the report till school closes. Whatever it is, 우리 멤버들 수고했어용! ^^ So don't ever think that last minute work = sloppy work, low quality work! As for the presentation, that's the only time when I got such a high mark of 84 or 86 marks for presentation, can't really remember the exact mark but it's definitely more than 80. Did I mention before in my previous blog post? You can go find out if you want... Anyway, still it's better to start doing the projects early so as to have sufficient to review and make changes.
Back to my RMIT course, the only tiring thing is that we have to find group members for the projects. I don't know which is good, having the same group members for all the projects or different members for every project. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. It doesn't matter anymore, I've already form groups for 3 modules already. Still left with 1 more module which also need formation of groups. Whatever... work with different people, and get to know more people through the projects.
That's enough for today... I'll blog more tomorrow if I have the time...

Ah...since when was my last post? Has it been a month? I wanted to upload the photos of my graduation day, but as there were over 20 photos, so I might as well make it into a video. I used Windows Live Movie Maker. Had wanted to use online photo slideshow maker but can't find one. Anyway, it's really easy to use the windows live movie maker, not troublesome at all.
I've got my new specs done! This time round, it's black frame. I still don't know if it really looks good on me but no choice, I've already got them made. It seems so fake on the photo. Honestly, I'd prefer not wearing specs, but because my eyes are quite sensitive, I might not be able to wear contact lenses. Furthermore, if I don't wear specs, I MUST put on make-up, at least BB cream and concealer to make my dark circles less obvious. Do I look younger without specs? Or is it because I put on make-up? (I'm looking at the first pic) I did not out on BB cream and adjust the brightness of the second picture. That's why, my face is a little red. My face is always red and face skin tone is darker, even darker than my hands.

I've been exercising for these few weeks. So untypical of me to be able to exercise 5 days a weeks, 30 mins, for a few weeks. Usually, this determination doesn't last long. On one hand, I'm really lazy to exercise these few days, on the other hand, I wanted to slim down! I don't know if I really did slim down a bit after exercising for the past few weeks. Did not weigh myself. I don't have the habit of weighing myself, check my weight, and so I don't know where the weighing scale is kept. But really, I think my determination is not strong enough to chase away all thoughts on wanting to stop exercising. Laziness. Laziness bug. It may be a miracle if I really slimmed down. Typical leo...
