mumbling me.

it’s amazing what a few more minutes of sleep can do for me. ok, make it 60mins, which equals to an hour. but it makes such a big difference. managed to finally get to bed earlier, which in my case means 12am, last night, and I was awake and alert today. didn’t feel sleepy except after my lunch. I always feel sleepy after lunch, maybe it’s just the afternoon heat, makes it nice and comfortable for sleeping. I know it was cold today, high of 11 degrees, but then inside the building the heater’s almost always turned on, making it just a...nice sleeping environment. =) yah. took a 30min nap outside St David’s, other than that, I was awake and listening at lectures. hmm...

I think I work better under stress. only when it’s nearing the test/exam then do I really sit down to study. now that it’s still a month and a bit more to my finals, it still hasn’t struck me that I need to get on with my revision with a bit more vigour. I do my work half-heartedly, and I know that’s not right, but I’m just not in the mood to study. I still do my regular work, just that I don’t use my brain cells to the full extent that they have to be, in preparation for the exams. hmm...

realised that I keep talking about exams almost everyday. but that’s just life for me now. main reason why I came here was to study. yah, I know coming here’s a good experience and all that, especially for me since I’m an international student and not a PR. but in the end, what I want to get out of this is my tertiary education. the added bonuses are all the friends I’ve made here as well as everything else that makes up my life now. as much as I would like to think of this as something I like, I feel that this is nor permanent. I don’t think I want to stay here for the rest of my life. after a year and a half here, I still think of S’pore as home, and NZ as my ‘holiday’ away to study. yup. but there’ll still be a long time before I’ll go back for good. in the meantime, I must work hard...this time here will not go to waste.

oh, I want to say something! my Bio lecturer is SO LAME! haha...he tells the lamest jokes that are so funny! haha...really. Dr Phil Sheard. we’re doing the Physiology component now, and it’s really hard to sleep in his lectures. so much for the kind of boring stuff that we’re learning, but it’s good to listen to him. I didn’t know homeostasis cold be so fun! haha. off the top of my head, he said something about the heart and how it can’t be full of love, cos it isn’t. rather, it’s full of blood! and when you literally put it in the sense of love, instead of saying “I ‘heart’ you”, why not say “I ‘pancreas’ you” or “I ‘kidney’ you”?! haha...ok, that wasn’t funny, but we all laughed anyway. =P he tells interesting stories about his kids too...hmm, it’s good to have a nice lecturer. and my Physics lecturer too, Pat Langhorne, she’s good. don’t know why but she just makes us feel comfortable and laugh. oh well...

hmm...it’s almost 11pm already. today I finished the 40 Days of Purpose. and so I’ve found out my purpose in life, and I should live it out. it’s easy to read, but hard to apply. I’m going to have to get down to doing stuff that I’ve been reading about...but I know I can do it. nobody said being a Christian was going to be easy, but when we can fully accept the fact that life is going to be difficult, then we won’t be feeling that every problem that comes our way is tough. by then, life will be a breeze, cos nothing is impossible for God. hmm...I want to live out His will for me...

alright, this was a long entry. don’t know how you pple have time to sit down and read my ramblings. oh well...I’ve just typed out an essay of 700 plus words. that’s a lot. hmm...

“I believe that with GOD everything is possible, everything...”
