I Put My Daydreams In A Teapcup

I only ever feel like blogging when I'm in a library haha. Which sucks because then I don't have any photos to upload:) Anyhoos, library is the new home for us Melb Uni students because exams commence next week. So everyday, we stock up on our jelly Squirms, Starbursts, coffee cups, lecture notes and laptop, and head off to the libraries to mug.

Kinda like the title of one of those Facebook groups - "I learn 90% of my course the week before exams''. Hear hear! Studying is such a drag. Its times like these when I think, Haiya how would be like if i didn't study Commerce? Maybe study fashion instead, or go to acting school....how fun.

I put my daydreams in a teacup, sip them away, and move on with my work.

After exams, hopefully when I'll have more time to blog, I'll upload all the overdue pictures from Halloween, Flare production, and our Dandenong trip. Oh oh and I think my flight back to Penang is confirmed for the 3rd of December! Yayyyyy! Can't wait:)

Til then.
Toodies!!

Double Take


University of Melbourne Semester 1 2009 results are out. 

And I suspect a miracle. How does this world work? The worst exam this semester turns out giving me the highest mark out of all my subjects. Don't get me wrong, I am so grateful. But Microeconomics felt like the most horrid exam paper I've ever sat for (maybe on par with Malay karangan exams). Jeff Borland (lecturer) put me through a mortifying two hours of sweat, superspeed-writing, confusion, panic, painstakingly-hard thinking, and weird last-minute answers, followed by after-exam effects of dejection, sadness, fear, a lowered self-esteem and the whole maybe-i-ain't-cut-out-for-uni school of thought, only to award me one month later with a H1 (first-class honours) of 94%.

Ohmygod, maybe they marked the wrong paper?

*touch wood*
