Saturday party was not bad. I did enjoy myself a bit. When I came, some of the girls were playing monopoly. I don't know how long they have played. If it was me, I don't think I can play for that long. Danielle and Fiona got to leave early due to some reasons lol. I played some cards and majong with Geraldine. ALec and Daniel. Geraldine so lucky lol. She won quite a lot. Luckily we did not play money. Or else, I would be broke.
Then we also have a christmas cake. Think it was brought by Sabrina. It was a chocolate cake. DOn't know why people like chocolate cake so much. Then we also took our presents. By a stroke of luck, I got Lydia's present and she got mine. Lol. Haha. The best was Michelle's present. She got it from Heather. It was a water filler. Those where u see in office where people get their water. Only got the top part and no bottom. The other best was Soon Aik's present. He got it from Michelle. I think it must be fate ba... Haha...

For the past two days, I have been going back to school to do my project. Thw worst was thursday. I came to school at nine. But then only Yu Sheng came. It was only until later that the rest came. This is the busiest day so far. I actually went to ask people to do survey for the marketing project. Then got one lecturer very strange. He actually created options in the survey lol. Then got some other people forgot to complete the form, so must fake some data. Of course, there were people who rejected doing the survey. Got one librarian, she asked me to go to the office to ask the office staff to do. Then instead of having them to do the survey, the office staff actually show me a black face lo. After gathering the data, I got to analyse the data. Work until 7.30. SO tired lol.
Then on friday, meet up again to do project. Did marketing and medical microbiology. The microbiology a bit chim, but then still can understand. ziYi suppose to bring me to the salon, but then he did his project til quite late. So in the end, I did not visit the salon he recommend. But never mind lol.
Can't believe that Dr Henry Leung is going to teach me next term. I thought he was going to teach the next sem lol. Just hope he speaks slowly, if not I won't able to catch what he say. I have problems listening to slang. He speaks with slang. Furthermore, he speak so fast lol. I scared I can't catch what he says lol.
I nearly caused an misunderstanding. Hope he will not be angry lol. I still feeling bad about it....
I have not bought my present for the christmas party lol. Later must go and buy, then also buy utensils for the christmas party, and also CUT HAIR!!!
Finally, my dad start to understand me abit. He doesn't care about my dressing anymore. He told me whether I want to cut my hair is my own business. Afterall, is own decision ma and lifestyle lol. Glad he understand.
Looking forward to the christmas party later...

Nothing much has happened this past few days except it was raining heavily. Crazy lol. Rain whole day. On Monday, I kept taking in and out the clothes. The clothes seems not be able to dry lol. Then on tuesday, when I was on the way to school, it rained so heavy that the path is all flooded. My scandal were wet lol. Then the mini "underground tunnel" could not be used as it was also flooded. Luckily, I did not walk close to the road. Or else, I would be all wet all thanks to the car.
Went back to school the past two days to discuss project stuff. So much things to do over this two weeks lol. Not consider a break lol.
Anyway, the sun finally appeared after two "dark"days. How glad it finally came out. I think I not going to have a bored weekend this week. There's going to be a MB0503 christmas Party! yay! It was organized by the joker boy, Aloysius. He can really design the invitation card lol. The card look so funny lol. Haha...

The weekends will killing me. Totally nothing to do at all. I was basically rotting at home. SO bored lol. I not going to have a nice break. With five projects, this going to be a horrible break soon.
Anyway, my father is not currently in the good. I was like trying to avoid him lol. He keep pressing me to cut my hair. But I think he probably give up and not going to give a care about me. He's a bit mad. He keeps throwing things away for no reason. Just on sunday morning, he threw the chicken rice away. You know how much chicken rice he threw?! Is enough for the lunch and the dinner lol. It was so wasteful lol. DOn't know what he is thinking. I think this cold period is not going to end soon unless some miracle occurs...

Finally, the common test is over. Quite a tired week. This is one of the very few times, where I wake up early to study for my tests. Overall, it was quite ok except for clinical trials paper.
Marketing:
I only started studying marketing on the day itself at 7.45 am. Lazy to study on the Wednesday night. But I managed to do most of the question. Think can get a good grade for this module.
Pharmacology:
Also not bad. But then, most people complain that is was very difficult. I can understand why. No tips, no study break and so much to study. Then Mr Tan tips not helpful at all lol. The interferon and pro drug qn did not come out. Lucky, I did not study the pharmacokinetics for his part. He did not test lol. Then for Miss Yong, She set two short questions from the first lecture notes. Nobody expect it lol. That’s why some people did not do well. Cause they focus on the second book and did not study the first book. What’s more, Miss Yong did say she would focus more on the second book lol. Then she also did not ask the side effects of the glucocorticoids. I memorize like mad lol. For Miss Ang’s part, her question was quite tricky. A lot of people could not think of the answer. I already lost about 9 marks for the paper. If I lost 2 more marks, I think I don’t have to get an A for this module. But for me, it is still not too bad. A lot of people will have problems passing this paper.
Pharmaceutics:
Not a bad paper. I can actually do most of the question. I spotted two (or three) qn and they came out. Haha. Then got two short questions, I did not expect Mr Tan to test them lol. For the tablets qn, I wrote one of the point wrongly and for the manufacturing solution qn, I don’t know correct or wrong. I only read through that part and I wrote in my own words. About 3-4 mcq wrong. Don’t know can get an A anot.
I can predict what I going to get for my common tests.
Immunology: B or B+ (or even A??)
Medical Microbiology: A
Principles of Clinical Trials: D (or probably even fail)
Marketing: B+ (I hope for an A!!!)
Pharmacology: B+ (I hope for an A too!!!)
Pharmaceutics: A?? (probably B+)
Anyway, after the common tests, I will have two weeks of break. But then this is not consider a break for me. Got 5 projects to do and some reports plus tutorial. How to enjoy lol. Going to have a miserable break…

Finished three papers for my common tests. I think I am unable to reach my aim of scoring all A for my modules.
First paper, immunology. Not bad. I can actually do most of the questions. The mcq were quite tricky. Quite a number of people complain that there are not enough time to finish. AS for me, I still have about 15 min to check my paper. Hope that I can get an A for this module.
Next, medical microbiology.I think I can get A for this test, considering that I can answer all the mcq. The mcq are worth 40 marks, meaning an A if you answer all correctly. Quite an easy paper. Probably because I memorize all the virulence factor for AK's portion? AK actually ask me to spell out the name of bacteria. I did not learnt lol. Luckily, it was only 1 mark. Miss Vanaja short answer qn was a bit bad. One mark, she demand 2 things. 2 marks, she demanded four things. And I felt she did not phrase her qn probably. Like she ask, how can AIDS be prevented. She should have add in, how many ways. Then at least I know how many things to write. Overall, not bad.
After that, it was one of the worst paper, Principles of Clinical Trials. I only learnt her quiz qn. And what happen, at least half of the test qn are not from the quiz qn. She say if you study the quiz, you can already score 60% of the mark. But then, if one really learn only the quiz, that person might fail. Cause the qn that come out from the quiz is worth less than 50 marks. And also, some of the things she say VERY VERY IMPORTANT, most of it did not come out. Instead things that a few slides and not mention "important" were tested. Then the mcq, most of it I was merely guessing and the short qn I was just bull shitting. Bascially, I screwed up this paper. Not mentioning to score an A, I probably will have problems passing this test.
Tomorrow is going to be one of the worst day. I am going to have 2 papers, and both demand me to memorize a hell lot of things. For marketing, the tips the lecturer give only cut our burden by 10%. Is as if she did not give the tips lol. Just look at the tips for mcq, already so much things to study. I think she should understand us that we have 2 papers on the day and give us more direct tips. Then for pharmacology, I am also dying because of that. So MUCH things to memorize lol. Lucky, I finished Mr Tan portion and Miss Ang by the afternoon. Lighten my load alot. But of course, I also skipped a bit of stuff to study lol. So better pray they will not test on the stuff I did not study. AS for Miss Yong portion, too much lol. SHe should understand us and give us abit of tips to help us lol. Imagine no study break and so much things. They should help us more lol.
Haiz, must study for marketing for tonight and hope I can finish at least 2 lecture of marketing and finished up on pharmacology. SO that I can finished up the rest tomorrow.
In closing, I must get A for tomorrow paper!!!

Nothing mich has happened during this weekend. Basically, other than going out to take a stroll, I just stayed at home to study for my common test. I really do not have the mood to study but then, no choice. If I don't study, I cannot reach my aim of scoring A for all modules.
I studied a bit of pharmacology and immunology. I chose to study pharmacology first cause this coming thursday got 2 modules, marketing and pharmacology. But then, I will definitely forget all of marketing if I study marketing first, so I decided to study pharmacology first lol. So much stuff to memorize for pharmacology lol. I only studied Mr Tan's portion. Skip quite a few stuff like the pharmacokinetics and the anti-helmintic agents table. DOn't think he he will be testing on that. If he tests that part, should be in the mcq section and I think I will be giving the marks back. The pharmacology so hard to memorize lol. As I progress from anti-fungal to anti-parasitic to anti-viral agents, the names get harder to pronouce and memorize, especially the anti-viral agents. End with what dine, vir, etc... The fungal agents also the same, the zoles... Then the name of the parasitic also so hard to memorize. Haiz... No choice lol.
Immunology was still not hard. Could get the idea of the lecture notes. DOn't think it's gonna be that bad for immunology. All thanks to AK's revision, it makes Miss Lee's portion so much easier. Must really thanks him a million times.
Must continue to mug for this week. I MUST reach my aim of scoring all A for my modules!!!
6 As!!! I must get it!!! Mua haha!!!

Actually didn't have to go back to school today. I have no lessons and can study for my common test at home, but then I got some questions that I need to consult AK and Michael. I wanted to go back in the afternoon, but Soon Aik sms me and asked me to quickly come to school. When I reached the school, the lecturers are busy and do not have free time to answer my questions. If I known earlier, I wouldn't have come school so early. The lecturers seem to be very busy today. HAving revision tutorial with don't know how many classes.
At four, I was supposed to meet Michael. But then I coulnd't find him. Then I found in the lab. Thought he was having a practical and so, can only meet him at six. Luckily, he ended his lesson a bit later than 4. Meet him and ask him some questions.
At five, I met Ak. lol. 0503 took about three hours for the tutorial lol. SO long. AK is mad at me. Haha Cause I keep asking him questions. Anyway, he such a nice guy. Helping people whenever he can. SO good lol. Luckily I came back to school today to ask qn. If not, I would probably be finished for monday immunology test.
At night, I went to bugis with Wen GAn. After such a long time, Wen Gan finally was willing to go Bugis. Play a few games of guilty game and won some matches lol. Only played against Vinci for soul calibur. Lost lol. Think need to train harder.
Must start studying for common test tomorrow lo. Must Aim to score A for all modules. haha!!!

Nothing much happen today except that it was quite a packed day, having lessons from morning nine to afternoon five plus. Got back my pharmacology tutorial. Got D for both tutorial. Not bad afterall. A lot of people fail the tutorial. Only very few people got C. The tutorial is about counselling points to patient. Miss Yong only want us to give some general important points and not a list of things. Is actually not a bad tutorial as it might help us if we ended up working in the pharmacy in the future. Then need to learn to give patient counselling, so this might help afterall.
The marketing tips for mcq is like crazy lo. So indirect. Only fifteen mcq. but then the tips is like require us to study so much lol. Might as well study the whole thing lol.
After lessons, went to explain abit of immunology stuff to Zhu Zhe. Left school at about seven plus.

I have my first ever practical test in NYP, skills practical test. When I mean practical test, I really mean those where you got set up the appartus and do something, not the practical test that test on practical theory. But then I didn't had a good experience with it. I basically screwed it up.
I was supposed to make two preparations, an emulsion and a suspension. I have no problems with preparaing the suspension. It was easy and fast. The problem comes, the emulsion. I did not know what went wrong. I just followed the way I did during my practical. And then? I repeated the whole things for FOUR times!!!. Imagine washing the apparatus, taking the ingredients, etc. ANd it still fail. WHen I had finished the forth time, I basically just give up. Partly due to that I did not have much time left. I still have some calculations not yet done and my report (procedure, labe) was not done yet. So I just went to did the rest of the stuff. So I got my report done, halfly made preparation (only suspension) and the other with just the label on the bottle ( the emulsion lol, what else can it be). One preparation is worth ten marks and I think I can only get a few marks due to the label for the emulsion. I hope Miss Ang will mark less strictly for my test. Hope that I can secure a A by my suspension preparation, report and the overall neatness (it is worth ten marks lol!!!).
Then in the afternoon I got student dialouge session. Quite a nice session and not a boring one. Seems to be that the other year 2s has a lot of complain about William How. But we did talk much about stuff that I did not actually expected. I actually chatted with Dr Lionel LAu for the first time. He's quite a friendly and nice guy. Left a good impression on him. Joel Lee was also quite good. He does really know how to talk. And last but not all, comments praising about Ak from Daniel.
Last but not least, for those who are reading this and are studying in the same course as me, if you are who prepare the time table, go find Mr Saifuidin... Haha...

Today's was a extremely packed day for me. Lesson from the morning nine to afternoon two without a single break. SO much infor to absorb lol. I wonder why ak did not want to take us for the antibodies lecture? He teach better than Miss Lee. He managed to teach us th entire thing within 2h (he took 2.5 h for the two previous class). Medical microbiology was extremely bored today. Was Mr Tan lecture. Learnt about antibiotics before, so this lecture was boring. And Mr Tan say we should bear for "a While" when the lecture took an hour.
Afternoon got pharmacology lecture again lol. Got back my test results. Yey! I got an A for pharmacology test. After that, Miss Yong also brief about our project. Sianz lol. One more project and we did this for the open house. The projector seems to be wrong. We change two projector and both did not work well. Keep producing blur image. Think must complain this during the dialogue session.
ENd lesson at about six. Thanks Miss Yong for helping us to pass our work to the various lecturer. Tomorrow got skills practical test lol. Left school at seven plus...

Then Miss Cherine Tan sms me say that the sat lecture has been bring forward to thursday 6-9 pm. OMG lol. This means we are going to have lessons from nine in the morning to nine at night!!! Will die lol. Anyway, from week 13 onwards, also the same thing. We going to have lessons until 9 pm lol. So take this as warm up lol.

Brought to see the library as well since he has not visited to the library before. Then at seven, I accompany him to wait for bus 57. After that he board the bus and we say goodbye. Nothing much today.

Went to PAnther place in the afternoon. He held a mega session properly for his birthday tomorrow. I was supposed to go there and enjoy myself but I ended up just using Justin's laptop surfing and chatting. I actually wanted to do my medical microbiology but then there was no microsoft word in Justin's labtop, so I just look for the information and chat with people online. Ate pizza and then I left his place at seven plus.
After that, I went to my grandma place. Continue to do my report. Seriously speaking, I really hate microbiology. Not just the report, but the contents in it. To me, microbiology is hard lol. Then most of the time, the report always need to draw microscopic slides, which I hate most. I just can't seem to draw it properly. Then my mircobiology tests and exams always sucks. Can still remember how I did poorly for my microbiology A and microbiology B. Don't know how to get an A for my medical microbiology. SO hard lol (especially the project).
Sianz. Common test coming soon and I have not started yet... Die le...

I still remember when I was on the way to school yesterday, I got a miss call from a private numebr. I scared that it was my mother who call me. Probably she did not bring the house keys. Then when I reach home, it was true. She forgot to bring her keys out. And I think she probably stand outside the house for more than half an hour before my father came back. Then she say why I did not answer the call. I wonder so what if I answer the call? I can't possibly go home and opened the door for her. When she call me, I was already in Yio Chu Kang. I have told her to bring her keys but then she said she would back fast so she did not to bring her keys. lol
Anyway, I am starting to feel worried for the pharmaceutics test yesterday. According to Mr Tan, 9 students scored A for the test and nobody score B+. Which means the rest scored a B and below. I already got 6 mcq wrong, meaning I cannot get an A already. But then nobody scored B+, which means I am going to get a B or BELOW. This is what makes me worried. I am really worried that I will get below B. This test is 20% and it can determine whether I can score an A for this module. My report is worth 10% but I don't think I can score well for this part. Thus, I need to depend on the test. But the, I didn't do that well. Mr Tan can tell that I am very discouraged of the result. I really tried my best to score an A, but then it just didn't turn out. I tell myself that I need to work hard ever since I did badly for my last sem. But the, I still couldn't make myself to that. I am still slacking even though the commont test is just around the corner. Really need to study ahrd and do better for the next test. This test makes me hate mcq that are worth 2 marks each...
Today's pharmaceutics tutorial is not too bad. At least there was some class participation. Mr Tan was using Miss CHerine Tan giving away gifts matter to encourgae class participation. My presentation skills really sucks. Although it was only a short while to present my group answers, I didn't present well. Probably need to train up on my presentation skills or else, I would probably be dead for my project presentation in due weeks.
Clinical trials is a little bored today. I thought it was only one hour but then it lasted two hours. Also, there were not many quiz questions. I think the students were probably sicked of it. I was sabotage by my classmates when Miss Cherine Tan needed one class rep to help her. So I was chosen all thanks to my classmates. I am supposed to take the attendance sheet for next week saturaday lecture. To take attendance lol. I think many people will come to me to sign the attendance so that they don't have to attend the saturaday lecture.
Went to library to meet ziYi. Then stay in library a while before leaving. Accompany ziYi to the bus stop. Reach home have dinner and left for Bugis. Not a bad night. Saw Wen Gan and Zero. It's been a long time since they came to bugis at night. Went home at eleven with Jovian, Aheda, Wen gan and Zero. Chat on the way in the MRT. Aheda can really make us laugh. He was joking about something in the bleach anime
Reach home at eleven plus. Bath and then slept...
