Good evening.

the last three days is quite rush
sat, sun, and monday, rush thru UCCD and started on SSM project
its like three whole mornings-til-evenings thing
its one of the times when i totally messed up a whole report, and a team mate had to "change a lot of things"...it crushed up my confidence and all (ok, some of) my hard work, so in the end i had to "squeeze" all my info into just four pages from the previous five.

today i almost forgot to do my tutorial-- i watched tv until 10pm, then realised gt tutorial.
theni chionged until finished it bout 30 mins later.

oh ya
about the SMART results, we'll have to wait till this friday to see them.
then i'll knw if i'm in.
But to say the truth,
i'll actually be relieved if i'm not in.
This's becos i've always know that i'm not so good at communication skills, and at most is good at onli one-to-one communications, and joining SMART in the first place is just to test out how well my communication skillls actually are(although i felt really fake during the interview), and also my friends psycho me into it(in a sense).

anyway
one more week til holidays
and three more projects to go
after holidays then Mid-sem-tests le

been slping late for the past four days, including today
really found out more of my weaknesses during these days too.

however..
Hakuna Matata~
All will be clear after a period of darkness.

Signing off,
Jay.

Welcome back to the evening news
This is Jay, your commentator for tonite.

ok.Recent news.
1)
Went for the Student Mentor smthing Academic Relationship Team (SMART) this afternoon.
Actually, its not really an interview, but more like sumthing like a group discusion, which i sux most.
So you could see me sitting there like a stone, among the other people( and is it a bad or good day? cos i was grouped into a group of all girls except one boy, other than me.)
Then we were "splitted" into two groups, and so i was the onli male in that group of four.
then we nid to chose a topic from among a list to disus about, one for each person.
then blahblahblahblah...
at last it was time to talk. to the whole group of eight.
the onli consoling thing was tat we were given onli bout 1 min to talk about our topic.
and i was the second speaker.so fast.
b4 tat i told myself: must have eyecontact.must speack clearly.must have eye contact.must speak clearly.must have.....
in the end, i achieved none. and the salt to this wound is tat i tink i spoke too fast.and i kept looking down at my "script".
and the leader of the group(sumone from SMART) kept asking me to speak up often.
so say goodbye to success into SMART.welcome kickout.
2)
started "revising" for my Microsoft Office Specialist Challenge last night.
the study guide was like, the great wall of China, onli its the great wall of Microsoft Word.
(i should start rereading a book called " MS word for Dummies")
actually i took the challenge not becos of the name, but becos of the 2 cca points upon application, and the very slim possibility of obtaining a MICROSOFT office specialist certificate(if i'm not wrongabout the name of the cert)
a cert!
wow, o.o , lol
anyway i dun think i would be able to finish reading the study guide before friday, where the test is to be held.
Butbutbut
a pass might be possible
must be positive!(by ignoring my limits)
Weather news
Thse few days, the weather is not quite good.

Good evening .
Its been about 21 days(or about 504 hours)since my last encounter with this blog.
I've been taking my GEM, psychology and councelling, for about 4 weeks, but there's still nothing in my head except for the four temperaments, emm...
Melanchloric, Sanguine, Phlematic, and one more which i had clearly forgotten, and i don't even know if these are the correct spellings.
anyway, recently i signed up for the MOS challenge with one of my friends.
I took the word challenge because i was more familiar with it.
But i'm sooo poor that i had to share registration cost with my friend.
and i thought the door gift would be some exclusive thing, but it turned out to be a --- ...
file. But not a bad one. its something like a ring file, only thinner.
might have been sponsored by CNB.
but if i passed the challenge, which is something like a test where there's lots of tasks for us to do, i would be getting a cetificate endorsed by Microsoft itself.
IF i passed.
and i haven started practising yet.
The cca drive last week, was well, ...
The tennis cca, i found out from a friend that i need a tennis racket to join, so... no more.crossed it out.
Then the table tennis side, thay say onli need expert players, so... cross it out also.
For archery, they would provide the equipments, they welcome all,...
and its on a saturday and sunday.
imagine me goin to Dover from Tampines everyday.
cross that out too.
then, for SPG, we left a whole stack of brochures at the place where the other ccas brochures were for students to take, and 200 brochures were gone in a day.
wow
but no one called.
so we're still lack of about 40 more members.
the would-be president of SPG have quite a good job in completing the
monetary formula for SPG using excel. Quite a genius, maybe.
That's him . in the chatbox.
i mean his name, or his nickname.
so that's all for now.
see u next post then
different time, same place. same web address. real boring.
