Mid-Term Break Finally the mid-term break is here! After so many weeks of school, finally I get the chance to relax! I've gone through 2 tests this week, and I'm strained out studying, as well as attending fencing class at my hall 2 nights a week. I'm dead tired.

NUS isn't sympathetic at all. Gave us only 4 days of rest. Why not give us Friday off as well? Why let us go back on Friday? It's totally ridiculous. Wonder who's that idiot who invented this 4 day recess week. Why not give us 5 days? Now, our Fridays have become our Mondays and Fridays are the first day of the week now. Weird. So confusing. I think even the lecturers and tutors were confused and had to get the admin people to repeat and repeat. Is this what the government calls "creativity"?!?

Hostel life is very fun. I get my freedom and my privacy, and get to make many friends there. Some of my neighbours are very fun people. In the room on my left, lives a girl, Ketty, from Mauritius and my right, a girl from China. Next to the Mauritius girl lives a local year 4 student, Eunice. Almost every night, I'd have dinner with them and other friends. Made quite a number of friends there. Mauritus, Chinese, Philippinos, etc.

Anyway, I'm here, back home, sitting comfortably on my sofa, watching the re-run of TVB's "Golden Faith". So tired. I think I'm going to eat supper now...
