Eternal torment: The Search

Thursday, August 10, 2006

So today marked the last lessons of my first semester in polytechnic. As much as I want to start reminiscing about it, it's not worth it now. I feel as though things are in a libo now. I'm still progressing; walking down the long corridor that I had found myself in but unsure where it'll lead me. The map in my hand had turned obslete at the last corner, so now I'm in unchartered waters.

Heh. I'm crapping. So to recap, had my first landscape design test. It was relatively ok, though I wished I had studied harder for it. The section elevation of the plan provided was a friggin bitch. On a scale of 1: 100, it was close to making me jump and shout Hurrah nad get sent off to Buangkok Green Medical Centre (don't let the chic name fool ya, it's IMH or better known as Woodbridge, hougang chalet etc)

To those who don't understand how crappy it was, get out your ruler. Now notice the ten itsy bitsy lines between 0 and 1? Now try drawing stairs with it. Thank heavens it's only four raisers.

After that, had a nice conversation with Ms Tek. While I loved the fact that the lecturers try their best to act on our ideas (from having a horticulturist day on Aug 3 to having a HLM gathering), talking about secondary school still opens old wounds that are still festering. It's not that I'm bitter or anything, but rather the what ifs are bloody irritating. I hope to just close the door but the key's broken into two.

So anyways, had breakfast with the guys (I swear, it feels like the old gender differences are never settled). The malay stall in SIM canteen has changed hands. If it's for the better or for the worse, at this point, I'm unsure. Well, look on the bright side, at least they sell kuehs. So i had like 3 kuehs and half an apple for breakfast. I don't know but somehow, I've been feeling fat as of late. Maybe it's my conscience bugging me for eating oily rubbish for lunch for the past few weeks. However, it's same to say that now I'm no longer feeling the pounds so to speak. I feel wonderfully thin. Wait...is it just me or that this section seemed as though it's plucked from some anorexic bitch?

Today, got back the results for ENV test 2. Damn, I scored well. I wonder why some people didn't turn up but hey, attendance wasn't marked so don't worry, no penalisation. Koh said that we were free to leave if we weren't interested, and correct me if I'm worng but most of us actually wanted to. But being the usual kiasu Singaporeans, we didn't. Not to mention it's a goddawful waste of time to wake up at 5 and be in school for like 15 minutes? So stayed to listen to 1.5 hr lecture of flower arrangement. I won't say I learnt a lot but at least I learnt something. Good enough for me.

So now I have a week of studying to do. Don't mind me. Unless something darn interesting pops up in the news or my mundane life, then well don't expect any posts until after the 22. Quite long huh?

Btw, do get down to Ngee Ann CITY to enjoy and marvel at Salvador Dali's works. :)
