FYP

To be honest, I cannot believe that I am completing my final year project (FYP), which is a timely reminder that I am about to complete my 4 years of undergraduate education. To be honest, I actually don't believe in everything that happened that concerns the moving of time. I don't believe I have completed secondary school education, I do not believe that I finished my junior college education, I can't believe that I finished my national service. And now, this, I still cannot believe that I am about to graduate.

FYP always seems to be the bane of many graduating students' life. On the contrary, I think its an enjoyable process. In fact it is turning me (and my FYP mates) into geeks as you can see from figure 1, I have to sort to such means to communicate humour. By large, most days seems like an episode from Big Bang Theory. Believe me when I say it's scary when the things that you speak, the terms that you use, and the relationship you draw from things is not something a normal person would understand.

Then again, having a bad experience in research in my early undergraduate days, FYP have changed my perspective of research. And right now, it seems that research is not as horrifying as I thought. It's true that I will not be able to provide explanations for all the observations from my experiments, but the process of seeking the knowledge to learn more about your stuff is mentally stimulating and exhilarating. Don't worry, I have yet to gone bonkers from studying.

I always end off my post with something irrelevant and emo-tic. I think I realised how difficult it is to deal with people. It is tiring, it is troublesome and sometimes, it can be a total waste of time. I always wonder if I am just the one who receives the wrong end of the stick. But maybe, I think maybe it stems from inside me; I am the problem.

Stolen coffee

I have no problem living with people whom I don't really know under one roof. Maybe I am a person who is quite particular about communal responsibilities. It's okay to be a messy person, to mess up your own room. But in my opinion, its never okay to mess up the communal space and let it be someone else responsibility to clear up that mess. I believe its about a month and the mess from the party is still outside my room. It doesn't really bother me anyone.

What irritated me today was about my chilled coffee. I put it in the fridge yesterday and it magically disappeared today. The question is, why would someone take something so blatantly that doesn't belong to them. This is definitely not the first time someone stole food from each other fridges. I mean come on, do you really have to stoop so low? Can you imagine a student from university who has no brains to think about it and yet resort to petty thieving? I don't expect myself to go around and demand the thief to admit.

I do feel sad for my chilled coffee (I have always wanted to drink it but it was too expensive) because there was a half price discount. But I feel more sad for our society because these are the people who are suppose to bring the future of humanity forward.

1 more month

Many people told me that I am having a time of my life over here in the UK. They are right. But it doesn't mean that I am not studying at all - you can't expect me to post photos of me studying right? I am currently preparing for my last 2 papers held on this coming Wednesday and with the remaining weeks to finish off my research project.

Its been so fast. I still can't believe I had been in UK for 5 months and counting, alone. It has been an eye opening experience with me doing a lot of things out of my comfort zone. I do hope this will help me to become a better and stronger person.

With only 1 month left before I leave UK, I must cherish whatever time I have left!

I think the general trend is that lesser Singaporeans are going for concerts.

Either,

1. Decided to stay at home and watch digital media,

2. Finds it too expensive...

Now what about the starving artists?

Seriously, people

If your boyfriend/girlfriend or simply your other half is abusing you for some reasons, just walk out of the relationship. Stop the abuse. We only have a limited set of time in our lifetime. Don't waste your time on such people. There are others who deserve more of your precious time.

I don't understand why some people post something on facebook, wanting people to know but not wanting people to comment. Because when someone commented back, the poster will reply 'none of your business' or he will try and change the topic. I mean, seriously, then what is the point of putting it on facebook.

Maybe I am having pre-exchange jitters, that's what's up with all the ranting.

But seriously people, keep your dirty laundry at home. Stop arguing about your relationship on social media.

On a happier note, there's lot of things to be done today. Photoshoot, Titanic museum and followed by the long awaited 'WICKED the Musical'!!!!!!!!! OMG!!! I have been waiting to watch WICKED for a very very very long time!
