Anyway, anyone wonders why the address is called fc-needs-chill-pill? I just couldn't think about any other names and yah, I've been thinking that a blog would be a good place to let out my frustrations if I were to be really dulan~ so yeap~ in a way..typing in this blog would serve as a 'chill-pill' to calm myself down?
This blog is also intended to keep people updated with what I'm thinking and how I'm feeling. Since people have been saying that they do not know what's going on in my mind as I'm like always drifting away in my own thoughts.
So yes, 2 years have passed and I'm now out of the army! It was tough but yah, somehow I enjoyed it. I shall reserve my comments about my time in the army in a separate post. I actually gotta sleep soon as I have to wake up for NUS' flag day tomorrow!
I had just attended about half of my orientation week. I think I'm starting to have the kind of feeling again. I don't know how to describe it, its just a feeling that I'm in a familiar place. Knowing that I'm back in school and probably doing the things that I like to do? The only thing is that the uni-environment feels a lot more uncaring. Not much assistance is rendered to us by the lecturers. There are no longer fixed classes and we got to actually bid for the moduels we want to study. While this gives us the feeling of independence and the power of flexibility, it makes me feel somehow 'naked'. It's like we're to used to having see the same bunch of people for all our classes while in poly, and now we will not be having any fixed classes at all? My poly lecturers used to chat a lot with us and be-friend us, even gave me lots of good advices, I just don't feel the same here. The university does an acceptable job by making all the relevant information available online. However, there is one thing known as information overload. Information is readily available,but its splattered everywhere and is pretty hard to digest for the newbies.
The people that I met during orientation are also pretty different from the friends that I know from the 21 years of my life. While some are normal(in comparison to my other friends), I've got some pretty exaggerated characters in my OG. I don't know, I'm not the super-enthu kind of person. And I really don't understand the need for such vehement enthusiasm. In fact, I do find it irritating. But yah, that's the way people are and its not wrong that they are like that? Its just that everyone is different. It's something we got to live with.
Judging from the way the professors talk and from what the dear seniors have said. I would guess that live in NUS will probably be much more than a simple stroll in the park. I would be very busy when school starts, I had successfully bidded for 2 modules that the seniors have mentioned as 'killers'. In fact, they had advised against me taking these 2 modules simultaneously as they do not think that I could cope. I just hope that they are wrong and that I have what it takes to pull through. I need to clear as much as I can, being a poly-guy who's so-called inserted into the 2 year(even though that's not really the case). And I seriously need the CAP of 3.5, else bad stuff would happen.
Anyway, I gotta go already..need to slp early for tomorrow's flag day!
I stumbled accross this while looking at my pic collection.tot I would upload it up here, looks pretty nice imo. and its probably one of the last shots of the national stadium as they're going to tear it down realli soon. This was taken during the SG VS SAUDI ARABIA match sometime ago.
