BIDDING Y3S1 FAREWELL

The last 2 days of school were longer than ever but it was exciting nonetheless! Wednesday's 3-hour lecture ended in 45 minutes and Mel and I returned to school to complete our respective reports. Kat's 4-hour lesson ended in an hour (!) but since we all agreed to have dinner together (and it was only 315PM), Kat decided to hang around with us while watching Downton Abbey. The 3 of us then went to take part in a $5 survey before taking off to Star Vista's NeNe Chicken,  where Sab met us. The outlet was surprisingly narrow but the chicken was good nonetheless. This time we ordered a whole chicken with honey mustard sauce. Since I had already tried the green onion and swicy sauces, I decided to order the freaking hot sauce as well. Oh! And I had their NeNe  pop as well although I do still prefer KFC's popcorn chicken. It's so unhealthy but the only non-carbonated drink they had was Minute Maid (orange) and I honestly don't like orange so Kat and I h...

Same ol' same ol'

Celebratory post because the first week of school is over!!! -throws confetti- -raises pompoms- -pops champagne- But of course, the worst is yet to come and I've to keep my head up while mentally reminding myself that there is still 12 weeks left till I'm done with the semester. Nothing really happened during the week though. Although most of my lectures already began, it wasn't as demanding as it will be in the coming weeks. I had a taste of what 3 of my modules are going to be like and if it continues this way, I'll be more than just contented. Still, docu-writing classes only begin next week. Looking through the syllabus, I know for sure it's gonna be one hell of a module. Weekly discussions, in-class assignments, final project; I cannot say with confidence this module will be a smooth ride. All I'm hoping for the best. Tutorials for my Korean language class also begins next week. Hooray because I'll be starting on level 3, which would ...

Penultimate year

As the new academic year is about to begin, I logged into my student account to find out what I was in for in the next 14 weeks (including recess week). Let's begin with the fact that I am very contented with the modules I am taking this semester. I have 4 so far - 2 communication modules, Korean level 3 and a linguistics module (Coping with Cultural Transition) 1 more to register for and that is a humanities module (Logic & Critical Thinking) on Monday. That means I'll be taking 5 in total, which is actually pretty decent for a total of 17 credits. Truth is, I'm not really expecting anything at the moment. I really won't know what the semester is going to be like until it actually begins . But I took a look at most of the syllabus uploaded on the student site and I swear I am not  looking forward to Media Law at all. I can't help it, though, because it is my last core module and I just cannot be more excited for it to be over. I still really hate t...
