DAY 154

Feb 2

1) Today has been a really tiring day for me. Woke up to have breakfast, before packing up to go for our first lecture. Truth be told, I didn't pay much attention to these lectures because there weren't coming out for tomorrow's test.

2) Lunch time, and my friends and I rushed to the Coffee Doc to use the microwave before everyone else XD. You won't believe how long the queue can get if you're even a little slow. Anyway, after a quick lunch, it was back to the remaining two lectures for the day. I'm not proud of it, but I admit I skipped the last lecture so I could go to the library, get a little rest (I slept so badly the previous night), before concentrating on our first quiz tomorrow.

3) Soon afterward, I was accompanied by my friends who had also come to the library to study. Three topics were coming out tomorrow - Immunology, Anatomy of the Lower Limb, and HBPS Module. Thankfully I was able to cover most of these lectures before the end of the day. Later in the evening, all of us went back to RCSI, where we attended a short meeting concerning the upcoming Interfaith Ceremony, which pays homage to the deceased (who have voluntarily given their bodies for research) and their families.

4) I opted to join the group which would be reading reflections/ poems/ prayers during the event. We still have not finalise exactly what we intend to read, but that will be sorted out soon (I hope). Returned to the library for one final round of study, and that was it for the night. I've done all I can, and I'll just keep my fingers crossed haha. Thanks for reading as always, and have a great day. Cheers!

DAY 140

Jan 19

1) Today has been another long day for me, albeit with some ups and downs. The downside was that my sore throat is still there, and as I predicted I've come with some flu. Luckily I still have some medication, which I will take if it gets worse. Had bread for breakfast, before coming to the library to study.

2) The whole morning was spent studying, until around noon when I had my lunch. At around 2.00pm, my friends - Khee Heng, Zi Yan, Nee Kee, Stephanie, Wendy, Esther - and me, went to view some apartments for rent. We found some nice options, unfortunately quite expensive which is why I had second thoughts. Anyway, I will just KIV first until closer to the lease agreement expiry date.

3) Returned to the library, where I chatted for some time with my dad. Around this time, I found out from my friends that the results for our JC1 exams were out. I hurriedly checked and was pleasantly surprised to find that I did pretty darn well in my exams. Considering that I once considered the possibility of having to resit the papers again this semester, I think I was very lucky to do well.

4) Had dinner afterwards (don't ask me what XD), before typing today's blog update out. I may continue studying for a bit, before heading back as I have classes tomorrow. As it is, my results, while not the best, have definitely given me confidence and motivation to persevere even harder this term. That's all for today, and I hope you enjoyed reading. Thank you very much for reading, and have a great day. Cheers!
