October 31, 2006 Happy Halloween. Guess I know what I want so I'll stay away from what I don't want. Sweet and simple. I am dead tired. Goodnight.

Hello-win!
It was raining sadly, but we nevertheless braved the stormy weather to go trick-or-treating! Collected lesser sweets than last year but who cares. Car rides at midnight. We rule.
We were watcing some ghost show and Val didn't close my room door properly and more than 5minutes later I went to my room and saw and heard the room door opening. Freaky.

October 29, 2006 Yesterday was fine. Except I think if not for Halloween I wouldn't have gone if I knew. It's huge but I guess the only kind of high you get is being drunk, except when they play songs you are familiar with. I can't say anything much, just that I'm a little more safer than the rest because I don't drink. Kinda weird to think my sister loves going to these type of events but yes I did enjoy myself pretty much too. Contradiction.
-nIx- @ [[3:06 PM]]
October 28, 2006 There's a bit of truth in everything. And it's always how one interpretes it that makes a difference. I don't know what I'm taking.

October 27, 2006 SHOPPING.
Money well spent today. More than $50 but I don't want to know exactly how much. Tops, tops and more tops! My cupboard is way too full. I want heels. Nice and comfy ones please.
Tomorrow I get to go to a Halloween party! Hopefully they let me in. =[
-nIx- @ [[11:35 PM]]
Yesterday was great.
Lets talk about Wednesday. The teacher was like summarising everything in the first 2 pages which took 1hr 45minutes and then he went on and on till the 13th page in about 20minutes. But then my attention span moved to food so by around the 10th page I stopped doing notes and stuff. After the break was quiz and he kept "who knows the answer raise up your hand" so I did and he always didn't pick me... until he reached a question I didn't know so I started memorising the sentence. Then he sat on the chair on my row and started to talk to Xiong Xiong and Yu Shan. "Ah you know ahhhh you know ah. But I don't want to ask you I want to ask her" then he turns towards me to ask. So tadah. Saved for the rest of the class... which was sadly only an hour long.
Yesterday was fun! Music and everything. Dragonfly at Harbourfront. Some Nuyou's magazine "Men We Love" event. Went with William, Clifford, his 2cousins, 1 super cute aunt and the cousin's husband who took part in the competetion. I wonder 1)which mother allows her daughter to go to places like these and even come along. 2) How come I'm not as close to my cousins 3)How come people can lead such carefree lives while I'm mugging away. After the whole thing we went to River Valley(?) to some Boon Tong Kee(?) place to eat. Pricey. Dropped off at Orchard and took the last train home. Tomorrow I shall try to go wherever that Jy's place is.
And I feel so bad for not studying. But I will now. Bye.
-nIx- @ [[11:34 AM]]
October 26, 2006 Cute. I am still awake. I shall blog about yesterday tomorrow. Blogger was down just now anyway. Tomorrow I'm going out! I think I need the break so badly. Haa. And now that I have to wake up at 7.30am tomorrow, I don't know how I'm gonna to.
-nIx- @ [[2:39 AM]]
October 24, 2006 ; there she goes again.
I hope nothing happens tomorrow. 500word essay and all, but then again how bad can it get?
I have to admit the past few days have been meaningful studying without any distractions. But then I can't hold it any longer. Hmm. I'm very tired. I shall go for an early night today, and even if I am really tired but can't sleep, I'll make sure I read my law notes.
Tata.
-nIx- @ [[9:44 PM]]
How many days? 4? Hahaha. Soon I'll go crazy. Soon. I just don't want to try till I can't help it.
Anyway I have to wake up at 8am tomorrow. And it's a public holiday! My hair is still wet(hur). My main purpose was to make sure I keep awake and do my work till late night but now I feel so sleepy. =(
Here is the picture of the sucker!I uploaded the wrong image. But anyway this is proof of me studying. The guy behind spilt coffee on the flooor, or else his friend did. He is from CJC wearing an ACS(I) jacket. I'm observant. Haa. The table beside me were also A lvl students. After the A's the ACCA students would most probably flood the library instead, else it'd be empty!
Here's the bugger! He took like so long to pack up so we decided to take a photo of him.
I'm tired. =(
-nIx- @ [[12:39 AM]]
October 23, 2006 I studied from 9am to 9pm with only meal breaks in between! 2chapters of law (30pages) and then I did a bit of 2.4 and gave up then for the last hour or so I read the law book which I bought for a hefty 75bucks as a storybook. HAPPY~ I love studying with them. They keep coming up with jokes and stuff.
In between we had this inconsiderate man who just walked to an occupied seat(the person wasn't there), dragged the chair away, dropped it and tried to find a spot to plug his 2pin plug into the socket. STUPID GUY. I swear if I had a metal pen I would offer it to him in hope he gets electrocuted. He wanted to test his portable VCD/DVD player. Sucker. Luckily he couldn't figure out that 2pin plug can be inserted with the help of a pen. And I bet he would have played it out loud too.
Too bad blogger doesn't want to help me upload pictures now. Boo.
Later I need to type my notes into the computer because they're rather eligible.
-nIx- @ [[10:37 PM]]
October 22, 2006 I think today is my unlucky day I keep tripping or banging into stuff. Like stepping onto the labtop cable, slipping on the Raffle's floor consequently hitting the door with the back of my hand and someone else stepped on my slippers causing a so called skin burn.
I studied from 9.30am till 5.30pm with lunch in between and lotsa talking and debating about law. And I only did 24pages in total.. out of the 70pages I'm supposed to do and the best part is I wanted to reset my yesterday's 70pages to today too but forget it.
Tomorrow I shall do law before I screw up in revision class. Yay. Hardworking me.
Halloween shopping supposedly but I didn't really see anything that amusing so I didn't buy anything. Thanks lic for the furbie. HAHAHA.
-nIx- @ [[11:37 PM]]
Weird. I don't dare to do stuff because I'm afraid to. But then again, I'm sure later on I'll die to do otherwise. We'll see till then. I must resist the temptation and spare myself at least for those few hours. Whatever.
Library at 9am! Means I'm waking up at 7.30am. Bah.
Goodnight!
-nIx- @ [[1:58 AM]]
October 21, 2006 cutes;
28more pages to go, but then again. The only thing I seemed to study for IT was nothing. ie. I studied nothing. Because something didn't want to go in my head. Worries.
I think I shall restart 70pages, this time with law. Then I shall do summary and at the same time prepare for the stupid revision class before I get slapped with a 500word essay. =)
I finished chapter 1 summary!
-nIx- @ [[11:21 PM]]
I should stop studying in front of the comp, it's one of the biggest distractions ever but how can one survive without music! Monday monday. I shall study at the library 9am to 9pm! Excluding lunch and dinner time of course.
I haven't officially started my 70pages for today. Just brushed up on the remaining chapter I half completed and read a summary and attempted the 50questions in the mini test we had some time back. And I still get my answers wrong, worse still I don't understand 2of the questions. I need to clarify soon.
I decided to do IT. 2chapters, probably slightly over the 70pages but then again IT is a read and memorise subject with hardly any questions to THINK about answers. I mean if you memorise the answer is all there.
Sigh. Stupid computerrrrr. You are such a major distraction. Not to forgot you keep dying on me especially when I was half through my 1500 law essay and you shut down on me! Blame my leg for touching the wires. Okay, fine.
Time to study.
-nIx- @ [[6:13 PM]]
I think the stupid gastric flu has incapacitated me in so many ways more than one.
I still get bloody cramps even when I eat normally, so does my mum, just like today. Albeit not as crazily painful as that day but still, I wish it wouldn't have even happened.
wonders ; this world has plentiful. A whole myriad that we will never get to discover all of them in a lifetime, and of course, some we have yet to discover. I want to be part of one! Just like some people are wonders in my life. I'm not talking about wonderful people, I'm talking about those being and bringing wonders in my life. I don't know how life can ever be worth living without them around. But of course, they are wonderful too.
Ahhh. Time to study! I don't know what to do - law, IT or management. Tax is out because I've been on it the past few days and the topics are getting tougher, much too heavy and stressful for a doubled load day.
-nIx- @ [[3:21 PM]]
October 20, 2006 Deathnote is so fab... except the ending. Haaaa. The Kira is so evil and the other kid is so very very cute. Just keep eating and eating. I think he's bound to gain at least a few KG for that whole movie shoot. I am so gonna wait till the next episode to be out in December.
Time to studyyy. I'm so not done with today's target. 70pages tomorrow. =)
-nIx- @ [[11:53 PM]]
`everydaymyconfusiongrows.
I wonder what does this mean - saying something but not doing it. Nevermind. Studies first. Continue dreaming later.
Till then, another two more days before I get 疯 again.
Get well soon...?
-nIx- @ [[10:16 AM]]
Dreams tells us alot.
What do we want, what do we need. How we always get it in the dream.
The only problem it that it revolves around the theme "the perfect world"
And everything's not as perfect as it seems. Or maybe so, I'm always not contented with life whenever I'm down.
Sometimes they reveal way too much it becomes an obsession. Beats me. I always wonder what's on other's minds.
It was curiousity that killed the cat. Soon it'd kill me too.
I'm tired and I'm losing sleep over it all.
And then I can almost always hear the inner voice saying : "Why like that?" And it leaves me inarticulate all over.
I just don't know why.. do you?
I feel like a fool over and over again.
Whoever said that life was a bed of roses?
-nIx- @ [[9:01 AM]]
I guess I'm still alive. I hate disappointment. I hope it doesn't happen. Whatever.
Why does time always seem to pass so slowly when I'm upset. Sigh sigh sigh. =(
-nIx- @ [[1:44 AM]]
October 19, 2006 `andwe'llneverhaveapeaceofmind.
And the hype in me I had since this morning has died down. I feel so lethargic. Like... Urrrghh.Why do I always feel this way at least 2days after my last contact with you? Where are you now? =( I can't seem to think straight now anyway. =(
-nIx- @ [[10:24 PM]]
Tired tired tired! School from 9am till about 11.30am. He ended real early. Then followed by going to Bishan library to study till about 7pm with lunch in between. The people just keep talking and so I just keep evesdropping. Wahaha. Dinnered with mum and back. I have 2more chapters to go to catch up with today's target.
Random.
When you've got something you really wanted, you just tend to hold on so tight and never wanna let go. But then the longer you hold on, the longer it is to let go and the longer it is, the greater the disappointment. I'm learning.. how to deal with life if reality takes a twist and backfires onto me. How would I react? I don't know. Whatever it is, I hope it doesn't happen to me, ever. But then again, who am I and what powers do I posses to have a say in how I want my life to turn out.
Hello reality.
-nIx- @ [[8:43 PM]]
October 18, 2006 I'm back to tax. Must complete this chapter at least before I go to sleep. MUGMUGMUG.
Halloween details :
Date/Day : 29 Oct 06 (Sunday) Venue : Lentor Villa Playground Time : 7pm Fees : $2per pax. Don't ask me why.
Time to MUGGGGGGGG. So I can spare a day or two for halloween and it's preparation.
-nIx- @ [[11:32 PM]]
So I supposed I missed out on typing on the Williams V Roffey Brothers case facts and on another case but whatever.
Today was a myriad of wonderful songs I've never heard for a long long time. Wonderful.
I studied like 20pages or less in the morning. From 9am till 12.15pm. Hurrah. Meaningful day.

Is It True To Say That For Every New Promise Made, It Must Be Supported By New Consideration? Discuss
I agree to a large extent that new consideration will have to be present for every new promise made. Without new consideration, it is almost right to say that there is no new promise as the new promise cannot be based on the previous consideration which is bound only to it’s previous promise.
A consideration is the fulfillment of obligations mutually agreed between parties. Consideration need not be adequate but must be sufficient in order for it to be held binding and enforceable between parties.
Any additional promise above the first promise, for example giving a bonus to the staff to complete their job by the deadline or for asking them to do something out of their job scope would have to be supported by new consideration.
To support the above paragraph we can give reference to the Stilk V Myrick case where there were two seamen that deserted the ship. To make sure that the ship would reach it’s destination, the master of the ship promised the rest of the crew a share of the two deserters if they completed the journey. However when they arrived at the destination, the Master of the ship argued that what they are doing is that they are performing within their job scope – what they are actually being paid to do as seaman and as part of their contractual duties. Whether they get extra pay or not, they would still be bound by their duties to complete the journey. Moreover, there were only two seamen that jumped ship and it didn’t really affect the overall performance of the rest of the seamen on board, nor was there any extra risk involved in completing the journey and the ship was still deemed to be seaworthy. Therefore it was held that the crew did not provide any extra consideration for the promise and the master of the ship is not bound to give the rest of the crew the share of the two seamen’s pay.
In the other case of Hartley V Ponsonby, many of the crew jumped ship and the ship was deemed to be unseaworthy and subject to the dangers of the sea. The captain of the ship promised the remaining crew members extra pay if they would continue their journey to the designated location. The issue here is if the crew of the ship completed their journey meant that they went beyond their call of duties, thus providing extra consideration – to be bound with the new promise of being qualified to the extra pay. The court held that the captain of the ship had to give his crew additional pay as promised as the ship was unseaworthy – the crew had to accept an additional risk of the possibility of danger at sea which in this case is held to be the new consideration for the new promise offered.
In the case of Williams V Roffey Brothers, the law sees that a new promise can be binding even if there is no new consideration supporting the new promise but in this case, the following guidelines are support this case - that the promise was made willingly, made to avoid a loss or to gain profit or if the promise was made because the promissor is worried that the promisee may not be able to complete what he/she is to do on time. According to this case, if the three guidelines above are followed, there is a possibility that these guidelines can then be treated as the new consideration for the new promise.
However, the Williams V Roffey Brothers case has been criticized in UK by the re Selectmove Ltd case where the Court of Appeal did not wish to follow the application of the principles in the Williams case. The company owed the Revenue money and proposed that some arrangements be made to allow them to pay the amount owing in installments and they went on with their arrangement, thinking that the new agreement was acknowledged. However, the Revenue continued to press for full payment. It was held that, although the proposed arrangement was better for the Revenue because of the position the company’s ability to repay the amount, there was no extra consideration given by the company to the Revenue that make them legally bound to follow according to the new proposal.
Another case supporting the re Selectmove case is the Foakes V Beer case where Dr Foakes owed Mrs Beer an amount of money and both came to an agreement that Dr Foakes pay Mrs Beer in installments without any extra interest. However, after Dr Foakes completely paid off the outstanding amount, Mrs Beer sued Dr Foakes for the interest due. Mrs Beer had the Courts’ backing as she did not receive any extra consideration from Dr Foakes that made the new promise binding.
There is also a Singapore case Jagat Singh V Arthur Heng that follows the similar result of Foakes V Beer. In this case, the parties agreed to settle a debt for the lower amount. The courts held that payment of a smaller sum cannot be good consideration to overwrite a payment of a bigger sum unless this new arrangement benefits the person entitled to claim the money back. Thus, there was no new consideration and the agreement was not held binding as the lender had neither the full amount returned nor any benefits brought to him over agreeing to such arrangement. This case places further emphasis that consideration is required for the new promise to be binding.
It also seems that the Singapore cases tend to favour the Foakes V Beer, re Selectmove case and Jagat Singh case that says new consideration is needed when there is a new promise.
Personally, I would also not recommend that the law follows the William V Roffey Brothers case as, with regards that almost all cases follow the first guideline, they too, most of the time would experience a situation where the promisor would worry if they foresee that there would be an expected loss or a loss of an opportunity for profit which could be avoided if the promisee is able to complete what they are supposed to do on time. If this case is to be followed, promises that the promisor had promised in a haste to encourage the promisee to complete the task on time would in almost every case leave the promisor in a position liable to pay the promisee, no matter what the facts of the case are. Sooner or later, everybody would try to avoid entering into promises.
It may also be true that in real life, people may compromise with each other and allow the borrower to come out with alternatives but more often than not, there is a need for law to exist because the person at the less advantaged end would have problems getting back what is deserved for their effort or money put in and the law would then come handy as a guideline of what is treated as good consideration and what is treated as no consideration.
-----
I FINISHED! And I am so proud I did it! 1178+34 commas and 36 fullstops makes it 1248words in total, as the teacher allows it. Short of 250 but I really am drained. 3hours exam and it's not a 1question only exam plus I took a total of 5and a half hours! Including dinner and running about the house from boredom, surfing the web. Not too bad la.. Maybe 4hours in total? HAHAHA.
Ps. THIS IS MY FIRST LONG (AND ALSO LONGEST) ESSAY. =D
I mean it's an achievement for my first attempt at answering law questions without being taught the format how or what, I hope it's alright. xD
I think it's fun! I shall ask the teacher to forward questions he forward to those who strike it rich and get the daunting wonderful task of writing a 500 word essay, of course by all means I'd try to avoid getting one. Haa.
And changing the font from Arial Narrow to Comic Sans makes a 2page long essay look 3! I rule!
Good night. <3!

October 17, 2006
Although I have a 1500word essay to hand up by tomorrow, although I'm still half recovered from the horrible gastric flu, although the teachers nag at us nonstop, although there's so many ups and downs through life, there's so much to be thankful for.
For the friends I have in school. For the new friends I meet through my friends. For the sunshine sends little sparks of happiness every now and then. For the songs to sing-along with. For the sweets and snacks to accompany me during boring class. For the food all around me near school.
OKAY. Too much morphine. Time to get back to my 1500word essay. I'm about 1.5hours into the essay and I'm only at 374words. Exam is 3hours and I have definately more than one question right? HAPPY NEW YEAR. =))
I just get high thinking of how I want to celebrate my birthday, but I musn't be selfish. If it's not the way it's meant to be, then that that's the way it will have to be. Albeit I hope it'd turn out to be a blast like last year's(or even better would be nice too). I think my wish will end up the same as the past two years since it seems to come true half the time. -.-
PS. WHERE IS MY HALLOWEEN. =(
Why do we never know what we've got till it's gone?
-nIx- @ [[9:27 PM]]
I can't get to sleep and apparently I still can't find what homework I'm supposed to do for tax. Speaking of which*.
I spent the last half hour reading my previous posts from the other blog. Come to think of it, some really freak me out, some are bound to give me nightmares for sure. Whatever it is, I don't think I'm going back to them for a long long time.And I hope I don't have to go through that ever again. *reminder to do 2.3 1500word long essay by tonight and print out and BRING.
Goodnight. I hope I survive tomorrow.
-nIx- @ [[3:00 AM]]
Hello. I am still alive. Time to do homework. Bahhhhhhh. I hate gastric flus. Why must it come back. =(
Thanks to all that cared. (:

Jas, Rong Rong and Yu Shan are studying at the National Library now. I must be one lazy ass.
Time to do tax. =s

Tomorrow's ange's bday. Someone please sms me between 4-6pm and remind me in CAPS to go for her birthday lest I forget.
I am hungry.
-nIx- @ [[11:20 PM]]
; time
That's prolly the bestest excuse anyone could ever give. And of course, nothing ever stays the same forever.
We all get at least one chance in life.
Sometimes i just want to runaway from reality. To shut myself from the bleak truths and hidden facades of the world. To change everything I once was just to hide who I ever was. But it's not always possible. Nature always makes one think, ponder or reflect. Is what I'm doing always the best option I have? Or is it not? And then it leaves me thinking ; how stupid. Followed with laughter over my foolish thoughts and actions.
Misconception, misinterpretion, misjudgement.
Runaway ; it's just my way of saying...
Actually I don't know what got over me but as you can see, from me resting the whole day in bed yesterday what can I do but think when I'm not tired. It just gets kind of depressive.
I can't study, I'm behind my taget schedule and I'm worried about everything else except that. Please don't let this happen to me again.Don't you already know? Everything just seems to depend on you. Save me...
-nIx- @ [[1:05 PM]]
October 14, 2006 Gastric fluuuuuu. and fever now. Woke up at 7.30am in pain. So I called home with my phone. Thought it'd go away as the time passed but by 9 I was so asdf that mum and me cabbed down to the doctor and I cried while waiting. My threshold for pain is supposedly good but that was worse than I could take. Vomiting and diarrhea I couldn't even eat or drink just now.
Got a jab and then I came home and slept till then. Halleluya. Curse the person who spread it to me, I don't know who.
2cups of milo, a small bite from a hashbrown, water and medicine.
I haven't studied for today! Today's 70 pages and yesterdays 35pages.. Spells trouble tomorrow either way, either I'm still sick and the pages add up or I've got 175pages then.
-nIx- @ [[7:41 PM]]
Fall back, fall back. And then I thought I'd never feel this way again, ever. I was so rightwrong. So prove me wrongright. Right...?
My life is like a leech. I depend on others to live my days on the two extremes in life. Happy-sad Love-hate Sane-mad logic-crap Relief-pain
Okay that was really random.
And somebody better tell that shitass devil to stop contacting me(thank you very much). Don't waste my precious time. (:

October 13, 2006 `everyone has a secret ; can they keep it? Oh no they can't-
=s Time to study. Law was interesting today. Classes are only interesting if you take effort to pay attention.
Steamboat for dinner and half is donated to the toilet bowl because I had motion sickness.
Friday the 13!
-nIx- @ [[10:58 PM]]
October 12, 2006 I am so pissed at studying at home(even though I find self study the most effective) I now have 101reasons why NOT to stay home and study.
From the moment I reached home, took a bath then started studying all the way till now. My only break was to go to the microwave twice, once to heat food once to collect and then the next break was me taking a broom to sweep NOT the floor but the walls and the ceiling. The whole place is infested with bugs since more than a month ago. The bugs come every night when the lights are on and the windows opened. Today I bet there's at least half a thousand.
The better part is they land all over my work and on the chairs and floor. I stepped on at least 20. So pissed I called my mum to buy those blue light fly zapping thing. Thankfully my dad came back about an hour ago and decided on air con so we closed all the windows and vacuumed the whole house. I'm so happy they're gone for now.
I am left with 35pages for today. (Because for the past 2 days I've been bringing forward pages and I just managed to clear the past few day's worth. With 98.7fm for company)
But all in all, I did skip a fewmany questions. I'll leave them for when I have extra time since they're more or less similar questions, or else those without answers.
Sleepy sleepy oh no. I guess that spells 70pages tomorrow. =/ And I am SO going to some library or whatever to study.
-nIx- @ [[11:34 PM]]
Random : I love going home because I get to see my sunshine baybees! They provide lotsa Vitamin E, X and O! Namely energy, hugs and kisses! Love 'em all.
I didn't come online yesterday(Yay!). But then again, I am behind my target number of pages. ):
Speaking of which, I shouldn't even be online at this hour because I have to wake up at 7.30am!
But then again, bad habits die hard.
I don't know why but everytime I'm busy and online, people never fail to msn me. When I'm bored, nobody does. What irony. I don't mean they're irritating or whatsoever but they temp me to reply and some really shouldn't talk to me at all especially the "so late not asleep" messages. I wish I need not entertain stupid questions. My time is needed for more meaningful stuff. But of course, I don't mind if close friends talk to me, anything indeed, even including the above I complain about. But why should those people I hardly talk to bother about what I do? Who are they to control or question me?
Tadah. I wasted more time. Oyasumi!
-nIx- @ [[12:53 AM]]
October 11, 2006 Diediedie! I am left with 53days. Which means less than 2weeks each subject. I should have started long long long ago. =(
Regrets ; but it comes too late. I guess I'll have to make do with it. Study!But then again, with you around I guess I'd survive this time round ; so please be here to stay.

-nIx- @ [[1:02 AM]]
October 10, 2006 Teacher was talking to me and ended with asking me to study hard. Then I replied okay, no problem. "What no problem, my future is in your hands you know?" WAHAHAHA.
Okay time to study. =)
-nIx- @ [[10:17 PM]]
October 09, 2006 And everything's alright... except my studies, that is. I'm on page 18! Maybe I should aim for 30pages today before I go to sleep. :)
-nIx- @ [[11:34 PM]]
Yayyyy. I opened my notes to study and ended up sleeping not long after. Dreams dreams.Why do I always run to you when I'm not in the best of moods? I'm so afraid. Don't disappear and leave me in a dilemma again. :) Back to study!
-nIx- @ [[10:07 PM]]
October 08, 2006 I survived one of the worst headaches ever. Woke up with it. Then I decided to study. Less than 6pages later I gave up and decided to go back to sleep. To wake up with the same headache. Can't walk can't do anything. Dad working, mum didn't answer phone till EONS LATER. Ended up taking 2panadols and hello panda remains because I couldn't get out of bed. Couldn't find that stupid axe oil and thankfully found that headache stick thingy which is almost similar except it smells of lavender. Then I went back to sleep in an upright position. Horrible. There goes 1whole day of not studying. I feel so damn guilty but whatever. Maybe I should start on my 2.4 and start practicing questions too(and not skip them like tax). Speaking of which, I think I won't be touching on tax for the next 7days or so. It's really the best way to kill brain cells.
One whole paragraph dedicated to headaches. And the best part is I had a nightmare too. The poor baby died a horrible death. No more horror movies for some time.
I am still tired after sleeping for so long. Why? =/

I am totally drained. Studying yesterday proved ineffective because in the end everybody started to do open book. 3questions took 4hours. And one real exam takes 3hours, not to forget we're not tested all the topics because we haven't covered some yet. I did question 1 and 3 first, then half of question 2, or maybe a quarter. Then went off.
VIVO CITY is disappointing because ALOT of shops are still closed. Ended up eating at the Harbourfront building. Then shopping at Best. Bought this huge doggy bone pillow and lugged it all the way home. How meaningful. My eyes are getting irritated by the haze. =(

October 07, 2006 While I am here worrying - that 6months of my life is judged by 4exams every half a year, there are others who are investing 2years into one major exam which spells their future. I can retake mine every half a year, can they? Would they?
I am competing with people who if entering the examinations by age would be 21½years of age. Some working, some housewives/husbands, some full timers like me. They take an average of 3exams I'm taking 4. They pass about 2each time I've yet to see.
And the smartest thing is I'm here ranting away while I haven't even finished reading the topics let alone attempt ANY question at all. Not forgetting I think I wouldn't have enough time to finish reading either way.
Am I ready? I really don't know. About $1000 will be or is already spent on booking revision courses and paying for examinations.
Will the money be well spent on me? Will the results be satisfactory? Will I still be able to maintain my results? I don't know, sadly. =(
Everybody I've been talking to has more or less started, I did too, but I have more subjects than them, I haven't started on some of those modules, I have(sadly) expectations that pushes me to the limits. Good or bad I don't really know. I just hope I don't break down from stress.
I should get back to studying if I don't want it to turn out any worse than I can even dare imagine.

Drive me crazy crazy crazy!
1. Thank you lut for letting us stay in your house. <3 your bed SO COOL! 2. I have so many chapters more to go. 3. I should go vegeterian. 4. I can't stop munching on stuff while studying, till I found chewing gum. 5. I'm taking a long break because I can't stand the textbooks. 6. I skipped all the questions at the back which means I must go through them somehow either tonight or tomorrow morning. 7. It's just a test I don't know why I'm studying so hard for it. 8. Chewing gum is still the best remedy. 9. Haze is crazy. I'm gonna fall sick sooner or later. It's okay, I'm feeling blessed. At least that horrible feeling's gone. I hope it'd stay this way. I'll survive till then.. I guess. Because you make everything seem perfect. Don't disappoint me with empty nothings ; please. Till then I'll be looking forward to happy days. Nothing better than life with that horrible feeling lifted away especially while studying.

Hello all! Happy Belated Mooncake Festival. I studied finish all the notes I brought that I meant to study, in fact, I took out a chapter thinking I wouldn't even have time to finish studying them in the first place. And I actually did finish, except for the part at the back to attempt questions because I don't have paper. Didn't really plan to sit and kill brain cells today either. I guess I shall study law if I'm going to slack tomorrow because that's the only thing I'm left with from yesterday's class. I have classes on Friday. =(
At lut's house now. I'm so sleepy. -.- Goodnight!

October 05, 2006 I am supposed to be online from 8.45pm to 9.45pm but here I am. Studying makes me FAT because I keep eating just to keep awake. Sigh.
TOMORROW NIGHT I EAT PRATA. Mooncakes. Mooncakes are fattening? Diet? =(

October 04, 2006 Somebody's touching my bloggggg. I swear I haven't touched that picture blog for a year or so but it's at the top of my dashboard which just means it was updated somewhere between the last post and this. Plus no other people has access to that blog. Wonder which itchy hand. But I don't care.
Today I was really slack to go to school in Tshirt, berms and slippers, my phone and wallet/purse/whatever and a file with all my stationary chucked inside. No bag, no nothing. I rule. Tomorrow I shall do something similar.
I have studied half a chapter of 2.1 before I remembered I have a 2.3 on Sunday, so here I am halfway through chapter 6 of 2.3. My main purpose for this post is for people to remind me I HAVE CLASS ON FRIDAYS for the next three weeks. LAW. Oh bother. (ange if you see this, tell me your Friday details please, we'll discuss ok? =] )
And I'm gonna sleep because I have to wake up at 7.30am tomorrow. How possible is that?
Ps. the mooncake is not bad. =) To do list : 1. Sign up for 2.3 revision. 2. Go to bank. 3. Go to sleep now. 4. STUDY X INFINITY.
What can I say? I love my life loads.

Today's class was sorta understandable since I took the effort to pay attention.
Went to buy MOONCAKE. Muahaha. Then walked to Kallang Mrt and saw Dasher. What coincidence, we were talking and enchanging pics, catching up on each other just last night.
Off to study.

October 03, 2006 Signed up for 2.4 revision. MY MONEY. =( Then we ate mango dessert, food at Lau Pa Sat and off to school to get scolded by the teacher but he was fine after break. Then to watch The Haunted Apartments - half scary half funny.
Haven't done any studying for today. I think I shall sleep early and go study in the morning.

October 02, 2006 Starting from tomorrow, excluding this coming Friday, half a day for Halloween preparations, Halloween night, the morning after and certain exceptions.
I have decided to sell my soul to my studies. I should have done it a month ago but here goes. I'm going to kill myself with not 3, but 4 modules, which is also the maximum. 一去不回. If there's such a cheng yu.
Speaking of which I hope nothing goes wrong, ever. I fall way too easily. Guess the dog'll have to wait till after the exams or when I see a really irresistible one ; maybe I don't need it anymore. I don't know.

October 01, 2006 Stupid guy there is so unfriendly. Like what the hell is wrong with people. I hate people who think I can't do stuff, like everyone who once doubt my results. Maybe apart from my main source of motivation the smaller one would be me just wanting to prove them wrong. I don't know.
Went to Orchard, then to Bugis for shopping and to des house to play with that dog which almost bit me. Boohoo. But it's still cute and very foodaholic. I am SO tired I have school tomorrow. =( Byebye.

Okay, cut the crap(because you're freaking me out). Thank you.
TODAY'S A SUNDAY. I get to go down and see doggies. MUHAHAHAHA. <3
