i just finished Advanced English & Critical Thinking Skills final exams!
phew~~
it was kinda stressful.....

truth be told, i am quite confident with my English...
i need about 37.75 marks to get HD!!!!
out of 40 marks leh.....
that's quite impossible =.=
so forget about HD...
i'm aiming to get Distinction!!
erm.....27.75 marks shouldn't be too difficult for me =)

now CTS on the other hand........
it's like....
well, if u don't take the subject, u won't know what im talking about....
i dunno how i did just now....
what i know is that most people have no clue either.....
hahaha

i just did what i could and hope that it's the best lah....
but i need 30/40 to get a Distinction for this subject.....
well, it's hard to say.......=.=

so, we'll see what happens....
one month from now....

phew~~
having 2 presentations in a row can be SO STRESSFUL...

i dunno how i managed to get through it....
but i did....hehe

okie....
our CTS presentation...
well, overall it was ok....
but my fren was practically reading from his notes when he talked about the pros & cons of circumcision...
n he talked MUCH TOO LONG....
[i wish he heard wat my eng lecturer said about students' presentations juz now....she said tht u're supposed to talk to the audience....not repeating informations....HOW TRUE]
when it was my turn to talk, Ms Winnie hinted me to be brief n talk fast.....
fortunately i knew my stuff....
n it juz came rolling out of my mouth....

then for Microeconomics....
ahah.....tht's an entirely different story......
i didn't manage to produce a script for my presentation......
n so had no preparations whatsoever ><
but luckily i did know my answer n explained it on the spot!
haha....n so i kinda made a fool out of myself earlier....
oh well.....at least it was ok lah......

it's kinda funny....
how stressed out i was over the presentations and the preparations for it....
n then it was juz over in a matter of minutes.....

the day went ok...
but i have one complaint...
we had to include a written summary for our micro presentation....
so i was to compile wat everyone wrote......maximum 500 words
but my teammate....
didnt finish his part even after midnight last night.....
so i told him to send it to me by 9 this morning....
CTS class starts at 9.30....n the next class is micro......
obviously i don hav tht much time to edit n put everything together.....
but he wrote more than 500 words!!!!!!

GOSH....U THINK IM SO GOOD I CAN SUMMARIZE EVERYTHING IN 10 MINUTES????

this guy is obviously crazy....
i don like his way of thinking, his way of doing things....
he makes me angry....
i don even know why i consider him as a fren =.=
well, lesson learnt....
I AM NEVER GOING TO WORK WITH HIM ANYMORE

anyway....end of semester.....
but exams start on Saturday.......
urgh......the schedule is much too rushed......

i need to get distinctions!!!!!

i've experienced so many things n gone thru so much emotions these few days tht i do not even noe where to begin...

well, to give a brief explanation...
the deadline for both Critical Thinking Skills (CTS) and Moral reports is today...13th November...
n wat the hell, we only started to write them this week....[they're group works]
so u can imagine how hectic it was trying to come up wif two, not one, minimum-3000-word reports....

the situation wasn't too bad actually...
cuz i've done enough last minute work in the past to know that i can pull it off...
at least it shouldn't be that hard...
but hell and damnation, problems arised....
all for the same reason, the human factor......

so, the scenario....
[note: im talking about the CTS project, n the topic we got is 'Circumcision'......duh]

last week, i came up with an outline for the report, and each of us took one part to focus on n then write about it.....
i honestly expected no problems, cuz everyone was supposed to do their own job n then we would then compile everything, then it's done!
uh huh.....easy to say........

hell, i should have expected problems from this member....
cuz i've worked enough times with him to know how he thinks....
he can think so much yet twist everything in his mind until he gets it all wrong.....

so, this member gathered information on the net n found that there was a lot of contradictory stuff about circumcision....
he didn't know how to organize these facts....
so he came to us....

i was very doubtful of the things he said....cuz i didn't see those facts anywhere at all....
so i kept questioning him from the very beginning.....
then he gave us his pen-drive.....n told us to c the things he'd saved inside.....
he saved lots of websites inside.....more than 10....
n he told us to read them.....cuz he didn't remember where he'd seen the facts.....
and i was SO PISSED....
it was the first time i'd ever get so angry that i swear so much...

wat....u expect us to read and analyze everything for u????
u think we don have our parts to do??????
u think that u can juz throw us ur problem n then expect us to solve it for u???????
NO WAY MAN.....

not only that, he even said this to me: "i dunno how to do, juz tell me wat to do n then i'll go home n write it...."

gosh....he sounded like we forced this on him!!
excuse me.....i noe this is a group work, but can't u juz decide on yourself????
don't u have some guts in u to do the work n then take responsibility for it????
WELL, APPARENTLY NOT

let us juz say, after some considerable expression of anger and frustration on both parties...
somehow, miraculously, we got through it......

still, i have to say that dealing with him is very tiring....
he juz wears me out n wastes a hell lot of my time.....

wait, that's not all.....
when he finally finished everything n sent the file to us yesterday......
we found that his referencing was all wrong.....
so we told him.....
n guess wat he said to me......
"i dunno how to do referencing...... i told u already mah...... ask u to teach me but u said 'next time'."

WHAT????
SO NOW U'RE BLAMING ME FOR NOT TEACHING U???
IT'S ALL MY FAULT???
U SHUD HAVE LEARNT IT URSELF!!!!!!!

it's not fair!!!
i had finished my job.....n yet i had to change all his referencing.....
not fair at all!!!!
think about it.....
i had to come home n clean up all his mess; while he can go home n sleep!!!!!

URGHHHHHHH!!!!!! JUZ GO TO HELL!!!!!!

my sister said that with this kind of attitude....this guy will have a hard time doing his degree....
n i'm not ashamed to say that my reaction to that was.....
smirk.....n say: "well, i hope he suffers..."

aih~~
i was thinking i could hand in the assignment n be done with it.....
then can relax for the day......

but then disaster strikes again.......
we went to CTS class at 9.30......
n Ms. Winnie said: "Maximum 4000 words ah....."
GOSH.........WE HAD 6259 WORDS!!!!

n so we had to edit again......
skipped class to do that........
haha......my 1st time in Foundation.......
anyway......we managed to condense our work till 4074 words........

n then finally handed up at 1++ pm........
phew~~

doing this assignment.....
i've certainly learnt a lot....
