5April 5, 2009 was such a good day. (:

I went to AJ first in the morning. We were supposed to meet at 11am. But I happily thought 33/06 being 33/06, surely people will be late. What I did not realize is that all the people I was going to meet were the ones who are never late. Zzz.

So I was still at my house bus stop at 10.38am when Daryl called me and asked where we were. I was like, I’m sure nobody has reached... In my head I was thinking, “Oh shit. I am still at my house bus stop and he’s already in school! Should I tell him?!” But I decided not to say, I just told him I’ll call him when we reach. Lol.

Anyway, I reached YCK station at 11.15am (not too bad huh? My house is quite near! :P) to see Alvina, Yong Yong and her bf there already. *Opps* We walked to school in what could possibly be called a drizzle to meet Sylvia at the gate. After which we met up with Hui Jie, Kelvin, Wen Zhao, Daryl and Choon Hang.

As we walked into the auditorium, I saw Jack walking out of it. 真没默契。。。Managed to talk to him a quite a while. He was with MX. Somehow, MX looks shorter…

We bought a coupon each, of which I only spent $1.50, leaving me with $3.50 unspent. Oh well. It doesn’t matter. In the meantime, it started to pour. We then decided to go to AMK Hub for lunch. Ah... AMK Hub, my favorite hangout place back in JC2. (: I had to take bus home from there anyway, so I was there every day. The NTUC is the best! I love walking down every aisle. (:

We talked to Ms Chan and Ms Zhu and I waved to Mr Mok.

Then I had to leave for NUS, where there was the Songkran aka the Thai New Year aka 泼水节 (water splashing festival?). I reached there at about 4pm with my brother. There were performances by the Thai 5 and 6 students, South East Asian Studies students and a real Thai performer! The whole performance ended at 5.30pm. Nearing the end of the performance I saw Mr Mok pushing a pram out of the LT (cos I was standing by the door). I was like, did I see wrongly?!

Nope, it was really him. Surprise surprise. It turned out that his brother is actually in Thai 2. Oh, our Chinese class heard of his brother during his class. He was from the Navy. I was certainly interested to see his bro cos my impression of the Navy people is tanned V-shaped bodies. And last semester LK took a same module as his bro. I finally saw his bro today! He was very fair but very tall. (: His brother must be some language genius – taking Chinese and Thai1 (I am assuming since one has to take Thai1 before one can take Thai2 unless one has prior knowledge of the language) last semester.

Anyway, my bro was complaining that he wanted to go already so we skipped the refreshment part and went off to Vivo City. I realized I am looking at English words from the Thai pronunciation angle more often than ever. It makes every word look super weird. I was doing Econs tutorial just now and I thought that the “shirt” spelling looks weird. Zzz.

After exams (I know, examination has not even started. But it pays to plan ahead. :P), it’ll be a period of meet-ups! Meeting up with 33/06! OCIP mates – HuiQi, HuiMin, Jack! 6Diligence! It will a hectic 2 months worth of SDE FOC preparation! It will be the celebration of a lot of people’s birthdays – I realized I know a lot of May babies. It will be a time to partyyy! Have fun! (:
Uh, ya. Before that, I plan to do well for this semester. I am aiming for at least a 4.1 to pull my 3.9 to 4.0 so that I can try my luck at scholarships. (: And for at least one semester, I want to be on the Dean’s list! Not this semester – not with Econs and Environmental Science for Buildings. Please let me do well enough! 4.1! Go go go!

I am most worried about the Thai oral exam now – it is next Monday and we are supposed to converse on a given topic. As long as I can do reasonably well for that, my Thai should be fine. (:
