Update!!! (part seize)

1. Good News!!! After writing an email to Prof Wee, literally BEGGING for help, i finally get to drop some of the modules here! Which means, more time to work on my french, more time to work on my current modules, free-er time slots, all these for the same number of MCs! NOW I CAN BREATHE!

All thanks to desmond who made me realise how unhappy i am, squeezing all those modules, my sis, siwei and skee for making me realise how sucky i am at writing formal letters... yes. Now i noe never to CAPITALIZE my words to emphasize something because it seems rude. (Now why didnt i think of that earlier)

2. Everyone around me tells me to "t'inquiete pas" (Don't Worry).... seems like i am the only one here freaking out most of the time, worrying about nonsense like not being able to do porjects, not knowing where the lab rooms are, apologising to team mates about not being ablt to contribute much.... my mum used to say i am the least stressed person in the family. I BEG TO DIFFER. I was so stressed i dreamt about cockroaches the other nite.... i was THAT stressed.

3. There is something freakishly wrong with the weather.... just when i thought i wun ever have to wear my down jacket anymore.... the temperature this week is forecasted to drop to 0degrees AGAIN! and it's going to snow... AGAIN. in fact it snowed ice just now for about 30mins....what in the world is going wrong??! I strongly believe that the world is going to explode. soon.

4. I hate to go out nowadays... even my friends have been asking me why i seldom go out now. i dunno... i just prefer to stay in my room... buy a bottle of wine, watch a movie and go to sleep. i feel so old.... i don't exactly like to go out and party anymore. partly because i have been overspending on food.... but also the latin americans are sometimes to rowdy when they get drunk. and i really hate noise. so. no more big fat parties in the future.

5. I love to cook!!! i just cooked what i think is AGLIO OLIO!!! WOOTS!! ok i used penne instead of the stringy noodles but it turned out to be really quite good! That plus fried sausages, egg, mushrooms and zucchini and you get a FANTASTIC meal! i am such a genius!


6. Random pics from the previous week

Went to walk around Croix Rousse a lil bit.

Lots of people just looking at the skyline, enjoying the afternoon sun

And i saw a demonstration in the streets...

... demonstrating against nuclear power. I should have joined in as well... only i was too lazy. and i can't be bothered

FLOWERS!

On Sunday, the Singaporeans/spouses/ students from Spore did a mini picnic at Parce de la tete d'or. From left to right: Leslie who is doing his 1st cycle in INSA, Isa, Maggi, Eric all from NTU, Derek the lao jiao, Leslie's girlfren Mia and Jeffery the master's student
