Was studying with Peter and Marcus again yesterday. Super funny - was asking Peter why his electricity bill was so high ($400) when he isn't in his hostel most of the time anyway. (He stays in our library overnight for weeks straight.)
He told us there were cockroaches in his hostel.
We were like, what do cockroaches have to do with your electricity bill?!
Then he told us his roommate believes that the cold keeps cockroaches away, so they turn on the air-con fullblast 24-7 -.-
It would be
so much cheaper to invest in a can of Baygon?
And by the way, the aircon thing doesn't work.
I'm a friggin mugger man. Supposed to go to school at 9am to study with my FA group but it's 1pm and I'm still at home. Blogging. And I have dance later. I. need. to. mug.
Ciao.

My journal grades for my Technology and World Change module are decreasing
systematically week by week. I got 9.0/10 for my first one, 8.5/10 for my second, 8.0/10 for my third and now, 7.5/10 for my fourth! Just wondering how low it can go, because I submitted eight journals in total. Should I do another one? Because my prof picks the best eight grades out of nine. Argh. It sucks that we have to care about every teeny-weeny five percent because it will contribute to our GPA. I miss JC where it's only the final exam that counts, till then you can just slack your way through.
And I regret not speaking up enough in class. Should be more aggresive next term. You know, normally people raise their hands in order to gain permission to speak? In my Comms class, there are people who just raise their hands and start speaking, regardless of whether they're interrupting the prof or someone else. Disgusting. All that for class participation points. And they don't give others a chance to speak at all! Argh.
Okay I guess it takes no genius to tell I'm getting kinda jittery about my grades now it's coming to the end of the term. Don't think I did very well. Doesn't help that people like Amanda get upset with an A-. I've been consistently getting B's for most of my tests. SIGH. I know it doesn't matter because it'll be the same at the end when you receive your degree but it's just the peer pressure. Everyone in SMU is so bloody competitive. Yeah that's how we're different - all trying to be over-achievers.
I can't wait for exams to be over. I'm dying to go to the beach, seriously. That's all I yearn about these days:
sun, sand, sea. I can't wait to go to Bangkok with Diana, Marcus and Peter. I'm even very much looking forward to going to China. Everything else looks exciting when you have exams coming. But I shouldn't be complaining. This is my last chance to pull my grades up! Go go go! -.-

The natural death.
It's no use holding on to something I know I can't keep anyway. Why does this part always have to come? I don't know why I even try in the first place. I'm always the one, trying and trying, never ever learning. Maybe I'm just too stubborn to, maybe I'm just too stupidly hopeful.
Pandora, oh Pandora.
I hate humans and I hate being one.
