First day as a Final Year Student
23:36:50 | School Life | 
First week of school. Whoopie!
Okay, okay - I lied. Not particularly enthusiastic this time round since I’ve been spending most of my vacation period in school. Thankfully, I’ve enough interesting modules to maintain my interest, hopefully for the entire semester so that I would not lose steam halfway.
Not to mention how the first half of the semester will be littered with doctors’ appointment fer me. -Mutters. But I’ll cope.
Meanwhile, I’m happily bouncing around and proclaiming to everyone about how I have a two-day timetable and they do not. (Hehehe.)
Tuesday
08.30-11.45 - Data Warehousing and Data Analytics
17.30-18.45 - Social Psychology
19.00-22.15 - Corporate CreativityThursday
17.30-18.45 - Social Psychology
Tuesday seems a wee too hectic, eh? I thought so too.
But after today, it seems pretty tolerable - considering how I spent most of my afternoon break curled up in a sleeping bag in one of them study rooms, fast asleep.
And I feel kind of bad because the sleeping bag is not mine.
So perhaps if I lug a sleeping bag coupled with a few pillows to school every Tuesday, I just might be able to survive this term. Classes for three hours, five hours of sleep, and then another four hours of classes. Hrrmph, sounds feasible, non?
Anyway, it seems kind of surreal that I’m a … final year student.
It still seems like yesterday when I was a wee little freshman in the same school, looking around in a daze, and struggling to find my way to my first class. Whereas now, the tables have been turned and I’m standing aside, laughing at how lost they look.
The best part?
I still have people coming up to me and telling me I look like a freshman. Or a year two student at most. Gah.
So, my first official day at school was highlighted with yours truly struggling with a locker (the locker used to open for me every time and all of a sudden, it decided to conk out on me especially when I needed whatever I wanted to get from within the most … the err, sleeping bag), plenty of junk food and loads of sleep.
I know, not your typical school day. ;)

eek is the locker okay? if its conking out, z can call in to fix it (:
sleeping bag serving you well babe? (;
Brenda’s reply: Darling, thank you for your sleeping bag! (Although I feel bad for kidnapping it all the time.)
Anyway, the locker refused to open because I turned the lock the wrong way in my haste - in all my five attempts. -Hides.
3 hours and 15 minutes?! How insane and inhumane! Who can possibly last that long?
But I’m really more curious about the extra 15 minutes since classes can’t stack nicely with them. Not that anyone would want to stack a 3-hour class with another 3-hour class!
Brenda’s reply: The additional 15 minutes is to counter the 15 minute break we have in the middle. (: The prof lectures for one and a half hours, then we have a 15 minute break (fer food or toilets!), and then another one and a half hours of lectures.
two day timetable no waaaaay! is it because you’ve cleared modules in the previous semesters?
Brenda’s reply: Nope, not yet. 8 modules to go - but it’s really how you plan yer timetable. ;)

Haha, at least looking younger is better than considered old, right? In school, people mistake me for an upper six student when I’m only in form five. Heck, my cousin thought I was married and babied lol!
