For the past few months of the new semester, I was happily relaxing and wasting my time away.
Study? No!
Homework? If forced to...
Play? Absolutely!
Sleep? Tons!
Online? Can't live without the internet!
Movies? Of course!
Hmmm....
Today's test was bad. Real bad. So bad until I'm thinking of giving up Biology.
Maths is getting tougher. Killer Maths ~~
Chemistry is getting confusing....
Physics has never been blurer...
OMG....
I really should sit my butt down and start studying seriously.
For the sake of my future~
I need to learn to be more robotic, constantly studying.
No play. No relaxation. No nonsense. No excuses. Just do what I'm supposed to do - study!
Maybe I'll see a dramatic improvement in my results. :)
Who knows? I'll have to try it out!
Wish me luck! :)
*P/S : Don't abandon me when I've become a study robot you don't recognise. It's not that I don't know how to have fun. I'll be having tons of fun studying my butt off. :D

Things I Found Out
During the bleak boringness with nothing in particular to do, I have come to a realisation. Ermm, a few realisations actually.
Anyone willing to give some advice?
- I can't survive with nothing interesting to do. Note the word 'interesting'. I can't, and I won't just be sitting down and staring at my books (text books, I mean) or my homework or whatever that needs to be done.
- My episodes of boredom are getting more and more frequent. I wonder why?
- I tend to waste my time mindlessly. And then, I would feel guilty. What a sad case...
- I love to sit and no nothing. This only applies when I have boring stuff to do. It never ever happens when I am busy lepak-ing or sticking my nose in my wonderfully engrossing story books.
- I have no discipline whatsoever. I never get things done on time......
- My internet connection stinks. The unbeatable aroma of this stinks all the way back to my hometown. And sooooo many have commented on this stench. Poooohhhh.....
- I was bored then. I'm still bored now. I'm thinking that I'll still be bored in the future.
- I have quite a stack of things to do.
- I need to learn to be more efficient and hardworking.
- I have yet to learn the art of being able to sit still for more than 15 mins at a time.
Anyone willing to give some advice?

Personal Statement Horrors
Personal Statement.
The unbelievably big hurdle I have to go through to apply to the UK.
I was supposed to get it done and email it to my lecturer during my break, but... distractions came in, and I was distracted, and I got lazy, and I left it aside, and...you get the drift.
So, it was half done when the semester started. And my lecturer asked me, "Hey, have you finished your personal statement?"
I couldn't possible tell him that, "OMG, I totally forgot about it!" , can I?
And so, my great reply was : " Ermm, still editing.."
Well, it wasn't that far from the truth anyway. I needed to delete what I nonsense I wrote and finish writing the statement, which is also known as editing, right?
That very day, I went back, looked up sample personal statements posted on the interned, and started completing my statement.
Sad to say, my statement looks soooo normal a.k.a. boooring.... :'(
No idea how I'm gonna get offers from UK. Depressing la...
Yesterday, MABECS came over, and friends told me to go see them and get my statement checked.
The conclusion?
My personal statement needs to be changed.
Another way of putting it is - my personal statement is below average. :'(
Now, I have another big fat headache. How and what to change? Remember, I can only use 4000 characters, with spaces....
Heaven help me!
