7:35 PM
7.06am WAKE UP TIME!
Yeah, that's actually my (ab)normal go-to-bed time..But the power of EXAMS is incredible..that's why Im up even before the sun!!!And in less than 5hours,I WILL BE FREE FROM THE CLAWS OF EXAMS(for now)!!A mixed feeling now..Defintely EXCITED!! Duh. I can finally do anything BUT study!!But Im also scared. What if the paper is shyt difficult?Butterflies are fluttering desperately in my tummy.[Or is it just the hunger (from last night) bashung my stomach walls?hmm]
Im suppose to meet WL online at 6.45am.[The usual routine to make sure we get up for the exams]BUT SHE IS NOT ONLINE!!AND her lan line is not working [since day1]..AND AND she is NOT PICKING UP HER HANDPHONE!AND AND AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW!!!!!!=((Maybe knock at her window?!
Okay Im going to shower & get dressed geared up.Then I will go to her block..But hopefully she will be awake by the time Im out of the shower!*Fingers crossed*Labels: friends, school, SEP

IT FINALLY SNOWED IN AARHUS!!=DIt was snowing & raining together.
So as soon as the (little) snow touches the ground,
it melts in the puddles of rainwater.
But it was really a good 2 (or so) minutes standing by my window,
watching the white flakes fall.
Can I have more snow please?
So I can make my Mr.Snowman.
Even a teen-weeny snowman, I will be happy=)

Such a lazy sunday..
Sunday, December 13, 2009
Its cloudy, but not too cloudy.[So we still get that bit of sunshine hitting on our skin.]Its breezy, but not windy.Its cold, but not freezing.Its just a perfect weather to SLEEP IN.BUT..today I woke up at an un-earthly 7.00am.Clocking only 3 hours plus of sleep,that was definitely not an easy feat.My auto wakeup-time now is 12noon![All for sleeping at 6/7am every night morning]So I jerked up from bed, after reading my clock WRONGLY.Slowly stumbled out after a good half-an-hour.Got shocked from the horridly small&puffy eyes I saw in the mirror.Cleared my mountain of clothes on the chair.Fumbled through my quilt for my MP3.Digging through my bag to ensure that I had everything....All in 15minutes.Looked at the clock.Great, I had 7minutes to hurry out & catch the bus.And buses during off-peak timings can be slightly earlier, BRILLIANT.Grabbed everything, walked-speedwalked-ran.I was JUST ON TIME.phew..All these on an early Sunday morning for Kenneth![Kenneth (if you ever reads my blog!!)..Aren't you honoured? Not just anybody can get me out of bed at such a timing in the first place!!].Fast forward to now..my brain seems to be on a strike, after managing a chapter or so earlier. Maybe its just the post-lunch issue. *BURP*..K is sleeping like a log & I want to snooze too (although I already had my one-hour nap earlier)!! Ok I think he as a more valid reason for feeling tired, his longlongLONG day&night of travelling all the way from snowy-white Switzerland. BUT Im tired too! No, I cannot sleep because I cannot afford to screw my biological clock further. And of course, I NEED TO STUDYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!=( So I should just stop whining..Sidetrack..since I mentioned that K was in Switzerland before coming over..DID I TELL YOU MY FAMILY IS IN SWITZERLAND NOW? & I can't meet them. Thanks to the smellystinkydisgustingcrappy EXAMS. Sucks big time. We are in the same continent, same time zone...SO NEAR YET SO FAR!!!=( They will only be back in SG on the 21st/22nd, which is also the day Im going to start my travelling here, which means I won't get to msn/email them till 31st Dec!! Oh wells..Im sure they will enjoy themselves, diving into snow & all..Have a safe trip my lovely family. Stay warm. And HAVE A BLASTING HOLIDAY!!=).Before I head back to studying..I just had to say, I GOT PRESENTS FROM SWITZERLAND! [Thank you K!!] A pretty-glittery-leaning, self-made candle & a moomoo keychain! The things that you never expect always make your day=D [peektures of them another time!!]
As usual, I HAVE SO MUCH BACKLOG!!!!! Vienna, Prague, Oslo, Sweden, My birthday, All the random but great days in Aarhus~ How now? I say, STUDY FIRST!!!

my first oral exam in univeristy.
Wednesday, December 9, 2009
..probably the LAST.
Did I mention pre-exam anxiety is ONE HELLUVA BIATCH?Especially for ORAL exam.Body boiling hot, but yet you are shivering.Heart pumping so hard, it almost fell out.Hands and feet perspiring profusely.You feel like shitting&peeing ALL THE TME.You stare at your notes, and they look so unfamiliar suddenly.ETC.Okay maybe not you, but ME.That was what I experienced today.It was so bad. I could just sit there and cry.
So today was my oral examination for Intercultural Communication.The last oral I had was in J2 for A-levels Chinese.Thinking back about it, it was hilarious.I wonder how/why did I even say whatever I did to the examiner=S& the best part I got a Merit!! haha pretty amazing yeah;PBut this is TOTALLY different.
Oral at that stage, was just a random topic and you just blabber on about YOUR personal opinion & feelings etc. The only challenge for me at that time was that MY CHINSES-SPEAKING SKILLS SUCKS=( [But hey, I think I have improved!] So the main point is, YOU DON'T REALLY NEED TO STUDY! Its really a luck kinda thing.
But this oral that I had today..HOHOHO. We had a total of 17readings + notes + articles..TO STUDY. The whole course in general is really quite common sense; Stereotyping, Culture-Shocks; Adapting to different cultures, etc. BUT during the oral you will be graded on the CONCEPTS AND THEORIES that you refer to (from the text). So you got to drill all the earlier-mentioned theories into your head, & puke all those that are relevant (to your exam question) during the exam itself. It sounds just like any written exam right? The only difference is, you got to speak to the examiner instead of writing. DUH. but THAT'S PRECISLY THE THING THAT IS CAUSING ALL THE EXTRA PRE-EXAM JITTERS! If you actually write a paper, you can comfort yourself that the marker will take it as a benefit-of-doubt if whatever you wrote is seemingly not that clear. AND he/she will never see you, so you can basically write whatever shyt you want, without bothering much. On the other hand, during oral exam, the examiner can question your answers ON-THE-SPOT. Not only that, they can just shoot you questions of other non-related topics (to your exam question), and expect you to puke out an answer immediately. Imagine the awkward silence when you are trying so hard to tune your brain or flip through your pages mentally to find that answer. To make things worse, what if you do not even understand the question and give a totally out-of-point answer? They are staring at you, breathing down your neck. *shudders*
Oh wells, at least IT'S OVER & I PASSED!=DWhen you are on exchange, all yo need is to pass=)[although she marked me down for being "too informal for acaedemic purposes']Considering I was totally CLUELESS about most of the theories last night.This grade is not so bad really.
Just 2 more to go!!=)But for today..RELAX~~~Time for dinner club then APPLE CAKE!!=DLabels: rants, school, SEP

Did I say that again?
Sunday, December 6, 2009
I decided I was ready.I read a little everything on the page.My heart ached cringed for awhile.I got over it.Happy to say: "Not numb, but relieved."
I read something else."Oh so who was it?"I definitely know it was not me.I brushed it off.
Someone told me another thing.Weird tug at my heartstring.I laughed it off; it's impossible anyway.
I got bored curious.I read another page.The same ol' feeling came back.And I didn't like it, AT ALL.
Why do I feel all these when now I have J.A.Z.?Why so complicated?If only I could play a game of Mix-and Match here.Solve everything. PERFECT.But it's too good to be true.So suck it up, and carry move on.
Im sick of my own rants/excuses/logics.Enough of it all.Hang on, didn't I say that last time?Argh. I hate myself for...
..not studying now. [Im sure.]Strat Mgt, HERE I COME~~~~Labels: me, rants, SEP

Another "early" night..
Wednesday, December 2, 2009
MORNING I mean.Cos' its 6.06am.Going to bed now soon enough.Waking up in 2 hours to continue my battle.I wonder how am I even going to climb out of bed.Still, I MUST.
Everybody is telling me:"You are on exchange, it's PASS/FAIL!! So don't worry!"BUT WHAT IF I FAIL?!So..Im going to mug hard for the next 2 weeks plus.Im going to write spectacular essays in 4 hours.Im going to shoot the oral examiner speechless.Im going to let my international knowledge flow freely.Im going to pop the solutions without difficulty.IM GOING TO GO MAD before 2weeks is up.My head feels like it's going to explode!
Time for my beauty-sleep nap.Good Morning World.Labels: me, rants, school, SEP
