Falling Below Second Upper Soon

I haven't been blogging for a while due to a number of reasons:

1. My blog inspirations normally arise spontaneously when I'm outside, and the idea usually can be expressed in a tweet. Hence I post it on Twitter instead of further developing it


2. I'm lazy to blog. Blogging takes time. Time is precious.


3. My blogger is tagged to my diabteo account, but my Gmail is tagged to my atqhteo Google account. Thus if I want to blog I have to sign out of my Gmail and sign in. (I've tried the multiple signins feature but it doesn't quite work somehow). Thus, additional trouble

I really do hope to blog more though, especially after exams! I definitely will be when I'm on exchange!

Speaking of exchange, I have rounded up the NUS people going to Boston University as well, all 6 of us. Three are PRCs, three are Singaporeans. Can't say I'm super pleased with that, but I'm trying to stay optimistic! Perhaps they are friendly, sociable, and easy to get along with. And most importantly, fun!
Unfortunately, atm only the girl from Arts seems to be fun and I can get along with. Sigh, we'll see how it goes.

Anyway, I have drifted far from the original purpose of this entry. I wanted to do some simple calculations for my predicted grades this sem. I think this sem will be my first sem using an S/U. I'm currently taking 2 modules that can be S/Ued, and I think I may S/U if I get a B or below.

I will do my module review after my last paper, as with every semester so far, but for now just some preliminary forecasting of my grades, without a full review.

My funny psych prof

It all began with this email which my lame Psych prof sent to all of us:

Beloved subjects,
Lo! How art thee? hast thou been hardworking? Thy notes for tis week onculture art up. Thou shalt seest all thee good comest from the notes. Thou shalt be earnest in printing them. alas!
Lord Lim of Yishun

Yes, these are his exact words. I have replaced his surname with 'Lim' in this entire post just for confidentiality's sake, but those who follow my more private Twitter account should know his real name.

The IPPT (2)

As some of you may know, I previously failed my IPPT, and as a result I had to go for remedial training in the form of 10 sessions of 1.5-2 hour training at Maju Camp. :(

After these 10 sessions, you are supposed to take your IPPT again (on the 10th session), and this time they have 'modified' standards of passing which you are supposed to hit - if you attain these targets (or do even better and pass or get silver or gold), you have cleared your IPPT for the year. If you don't, you have to attend EIGHT MORE sessions of RT.

So after going through the hassle of 9 sessions, today was the day when I would be evaluated once again. It was time to take my IPPT again.
