Last Saturday was probably my worse day ever..went out for dinner with my family and my cousin's family..so I had to drive since there were 12 of us and we can't fit in one car..and I banged the front of a car in the carpark..damn it..until now, I still don't know why and I don't know how I banged that car when it's so big and there's a sensor installed in the car..fortunately the scratch on the car wasn't so obvious or large..and my cousin managed to make it 'disappear' when he applied it with wax and rubbed the spot with circular motions..then they came to our house after dinner and I wanted to show my niece some tricks that lilo can do..and then I asked her to touch lilo and the dog suddenly went bersek and wanted to bite my niece..I mean everyone was kinda taken by surprise since lilo was quite nice and she didn't even bark when they entered the house..and then she suddenly just went bersek..still don't know why she suddenly went crazy..but my niece ended up with bruises on her arm because lilo scratched her..Damn..but that was one of the worst days I ever had..
I received an email yesterday where the teacher said that I could see my grade for my Astronomy test..and to my disappointment, I got a C only..=.=''..I was hoping for at least B..I guess I have to rely on my final examination now..finished my effective communication speech today as well..I was really nervous up there..I even missed out some of my points..and I don't know if I made any sense..said too much "ermm"..Just hope I can get at least a B for that..I really hope to get A for my lab and my effective communications..
Anyway, enough of school stuff..quite depressing to talk about it sometimes..was reading terence's blog just now..kinda lame arguments especially by the pok guy..warped arguments that don't make sense at all..

hmm..Astronomy test is finally over today..It wasn't very difficult but it wasn't very easy as well..So far, I know that I have 2 mistakes already..but I think 13/15 is still not too bad.. Just hope that I won't make anymore mistakes..I have my fingers crossed.. Having that aside, I still have a lot to prepare for next week..I have a Chemistry test, Maths test, Computing test and a speech to prepare for next week's effective communication tutorial on tuesday..Can't wait for the speech to be over since I hate presenting in front of the class and stuff..
Exams are in 3 weeks' time and I haven't really done any revisions..argh..I just saw the Japanese past year papers last night and I thought that it was quite difficult but at least I know which areas to focus on now..Printed some past year papers for the other subjects as well..Hopefully I can do much better this semester..I really really hope so..
Anyway, I have to do my research for my speech next week..
*Puwet off to research...*

Been sick for the past 3 days..But yesterday was the worst day..My nose was almost coming off from my face from all of the wiping and rubbing..I brought a 70 piece travel pack tissue and I ended up using almost 50 sheets of it..-_-''..And my head was very painful from all the coughing as well..At first I thought I could recover from self-medication but apparently it didn't really work and I went to see the doctor yesterday..Fortunately it was better today although my voice still sounds funny..
I have a lot of work due by this week and I am so glad that I finished most of it before the due date..cause those who know me well would know that I actually do things at the last minute, which I would not deny..Finished my reflection papers last week but only to find out that there was actually a word limit..which I kinda find riduculous actually..Imagine writing the reflection paper and then you suddenly feel the inspiration and start to write everything you want to reflect on..and halfway through you suddenly remembered that there is a word limit and then you have to stop reflecting almost immediately so as not to exceed the word limit..I just find it funny that you have to limit your reflection..In the past I thought that teachers liked it when you could reflect on more things; relevant and sensible ones that is..anyway, finished my lab report as well and got it printed out this morning.. =)
Next week is kind of a headache though..it's astronomy test and the content covers lectures 1 to 9..and I don't really remember much things about astronomy even at this point of time..Hopefully I can remember most things by this weekend if not latest by next tuesday cause the test is on wednesday..but a good thing to look forward to next week though is that there will be no more lab!! =) I only like the drawing in 2 point perspective labs..other than that, I simply hate the calculations and whatnot.. =p
Anyway, I should start on my astronomy revision..if not I don't think I will survive the test next week..
*Puwet hopes the test isn't so difficult...*

After going back to my own home for the last month, I'm officially back in my 2nd home, which is the one located at lakeside..Kinda having mixed feelings right now..half of me likes being back here and the other half seems to like the own home better..I know humans are just so contradicting and fickle-minded..
Half of me likes being back here cause there is less television distraction due to the fewer channels available here..and it seems better cause I can concentrate and do more work, which I seriously need to do cause I am kinda lagging behind a lot especially for my physics and my astronomy..However, another half of me likes going back to my own home better because no place is better than home right? and also I don't have to take public transport from home to school and from school to home when I go back to my own home..so, those are the mixed feelings I am having right now..But I guess coming back here is kind of a better choice if I want to pull my GPA up for this semester and since I only have about a month more to go before my exams..
I am kinda busy this week too since I just got my formal lab report to do last thursday..it is due next thursday, 19 March..and I also have an effective communications refleciton paper to complete by this week cause it's due next wednesday..I also have to prepare for my oral presentation for effective communications which should be soon..on top of these, I stil have to study for my astronomy cause I have a test on 25 March which is the wednesday 2 weeks from today..hopefully I can finish what I have set out to complete by this week....

OMG...my school has another suicide case..I thought one suicide case was bad enough..and unexpectedly there was another one last night..A China guy, Zhou Zheng hanged himself at his apartment at Nanyang Heights..I think that Zhou Zheng was contemplating to commit suicide and when the Indo-Chinese guy committed suicide, he decided to follow suit..But even then, I think the whole thing is so shocking..within a week and 2 such cases..And the surprising thing is that both of them, that is the Indonesian-Chinese and this guy, are both from the school of EEE..Is it because EEE course is too difficult and stressful that all of them find life very meaningless? Even so, life isn't all about studies..Is suicide the only way of solving the problem? Anyway, I hope there won't be any more suicides..There is definitely more to life..
Anyway, went to the airport to pick my auntie this afternoon..and I am similarly surprised that Singapore allows barking dogs to enter the airport..We were at Terminal 3 and my mom was waiting for a carpark space..so she went around the carpark then we were near the entrance and a car went off..so we stood at that carpark space and called her to come..There was a guy waiting also but he asked if we were reserving the space and I said yes and apologised to him..then he went off to find another space..when my mom was about to arrive another car came and wanted to park at the space so we continued to stand there cause my mom was just behind..then he still wanted to reverse..then he suddenly winded his window down..
The mad dog: Do you have the right to reserve carpark? (repeats it for 4 times)
*I ignored him and didn't answer*
*Mad dog comes down from his car*
The mad dog: I said do you have the right to reserve carpark? For goodness sake, you are in Singapore and you don't have the right to reserve carpark!
*My aunt tries to reason with the mad dog which obviously failed..*
*The mad dog contiues to bark uncontrollably...*
My uncle: Ok ok..
*We moved away from the carpark space...*
The mad dog (still continuing to bark): I HATE PEOPLE WHO RESERVE CARPARK SPACE!!
Seriously, I didn't know that dogs were ever allowed in the airport..Let alone a noisy dog which doesn't stop barking..and on top of that, a 60+ year old dog..I thought only police dogs were allowed..Although some things are not a part of human rights or any other sort of rights, if it is a practice, it is only reasonable that you respect that practice...like in hawker centres..some people put their tissue papers there to reserve the seat and go off to buy their food..Singaporeans would know that the seat is 'reserved' and they can't seat there since it's already 'reserved'..Is it a right to 'reserve' seats in hawker centres or even in some other public place?? I guess not..but do people do it? Is it a practice? If it is not a right, why do people still do it and does it mean that people can't do it?Does it mean that you shouldn't respect this practice?
Nevertheless, I shall not let a uncivilised noisy barking dog spoil my day..There are just such unreasonable dogs in Singapore and I just have to live with it if I am planning to stay in this country..Just hope that I won't meet many of such dogs in my life..if not my life will be shortened by at least 10 years everytime I see one..
*Puwet still can't believe there was a barking dog at the airport.....*

After the lecture this morning I was very shocked to find out that a student in NTU actually tried to kill a teacher and eventually slit his wraist and committed suicide after that..At first I even thought that my friend was only playing a prank or something..but word of the incident eventually spreaded around the school..I feel very sad for the parents of the student because they spent so many years and even effort to bring him up and he ended his life just like that..And it's so foolish of him to kill himself after going through 3.5 years of university..just when he was about to graduate..haiz..
Ok..putting aside those sad incidents, went out with Uraina and Fiona on Friday..Went to cineleisure to eat and watch movie..ate at Sakae Teppanyaki..I ordered a beef set, which is very delicious..hehe..Watched the movie She's just not that into you..I thought it was only ok..I guess if the show was being shown on star movies or something I would have changed the channel already but since it's in a cinema then I had to continue watching..Uraina fell asleep during some part and Fiona ALMOST fell asleep also..just tells you how 'interesting' the movie is..I would probably just give it 3 out of 5 stars..
Later on we went to Holland V to go eat cold rock..or cold stone..I forgot the name of the shop..I ate rum & raisin with marshmallows..I think it's nice though I still prefer the one at the citylink mall..cause they have more things included and they know what goes well with what..then while we were taking some pictures, 3 of my ex-classmates came to the same store..haven't seen them for like going 4 years le? only remembered Joy and Dominic's name..then Fiona remembered Chian Yi(if I didn't spell that wrongly..)
Friday was fun except for some funny moments especially the one regarding the nail polish..lol..
