i thought i had the thickest set of notes with me when i entered the examination hall for my physics paper today, then i realized the china scholar next to me, carried in a Mount Everest, i felt so humbled.
anyway, i guess ultimately, the notes did not help much, because it tested pretty much on your concepts of the problems you understood, rather than just following the examples from tutorials or lectures. so a good lesson learnt today is, always try to understand your subjects well rather than memorizing the steps and just the key points.
memorizing gets you a pass, understanding it thoroughly varies the differences of being a distinction student. as for me, i dare not comment even though i managed to do the paper. i realized from last semester, never hope too much for you might just be put down with the expectations that you set high up there for yourself.
i am elated that mummy is finally home from her ten day tour in china. A house without her screams feels rather awkward! and a pleasant surprise, she bought me china-made and branded in china mp4. it looks exactly like an apple counterfeit. haha.
what's worst, the box was labelled, "i-movie, idea life at mumumusic!" firstly, i-movie is like a direct copy cat of i-pod, i-phones and etc, and can anyone kindly explain to me what mumumusic is? it seems rather disturbing. MUMU here, MUMU there. but complaints aside, i really like it!
adding on the the surprises, i got a free examination welfare package from a friend! in NTU, examination welfare packages usually come with some free vouchers, food, and stationary. as for this, it was filled with just food, that makes me fat. but i am touched with that thought of yours!! so THANK YOU YOU!
i hope those marks and spencer chocolate, and fatty acid filled potato chips won't make me put up too many extra pounds or else, i ensure you i will go vandalize your new white baby suzuki swift parking in the student financial office with my names and initials.
two papers down, and three more to go!
i cannot wait for my liberation of examinations coming this thursday!
whee!
