Week 7, Year 1 SMU / S A M A N T H A

Hi there! I’m Samantha,

and this space encompasses my personal milestones made beautiful in His time. Combining my flair for easy-to-read writing and my love for photography, here you'll find me sharing the thing I'm most passionate about - travel, food, fashion and my conversations with God.

*P.S when God was blessing others with the gift of height, He left me out realizing that great things come in tiny packages, so instead I am gifted with endless energy and a big wide smile to get through difficult times.

Forever & always, a child of God. Through this cozy little virtual haven, I hope each post inspires at least someone out there with my life stories.

Week 7, Year 1 SMU

02 October 2012

TIME FLIES!

It's Week 7 already. Before I know it, the year's over!

This week is my most chiong week also cause it's the exam week :( As kiddy as this sounds, I hate exams. I know they are inevitable and I chose this route, so I have noone to blame except myself.
The paper chase in Singapore; the best of the best.

Flunked my Acad Writing essays and didn't do well for Business Law. Le Sighs. Ohgod help me! Uni is such a difficult place, it's just not for me :( it's kinda scary. Was having a conversation with my friend yesterday and she commented, 'In Poly, you need to score. In Uni, you just need to survive'. Of course, if you can score, it's a bonus. I feel the stress in terms of competition, not with others but with myself. In the past, it's among your batch mates but when it comes to Uni, it's so hard to pass, let alone score. And with the top 5 JC kids around, we are really on different playing fields altogether. Thus it's really about 'me being able to do it too' and that's what I call competition with myself. Don't even bother competing with the rest of them cause they are confirm doing well in terms of studies.

& fyi, Poly students do not have an advantage over JC kids. At least not in the 1st year where we have to study generic school core mods like Acad Writing, TWC and BGS etc. We have never studied such things before. I guess it's only when we go into our majors then we have an advantage. How I wish I can skip year 1 & fast track to year 3 and year 4. Do what I really want, do the reasons why I chose to enroll into a University. Do all the computer mods, calculus, accounting FOR WHAT! sighs. Such a pain in the ass.

Enough Said.

I'm super unlucky. Blacked out while walking back to school this afternoon. Couldn't even make it back to school for lunch w MUSHU. Food Poisoning, I think. Shag! Missed class but it was really inevitable. The ironic thing is that I didn't eat much for breakfast at all - Only ribena, banana and guava. It must be one of the 3 & I suspect it's the ribena cause it's my 1st time trying school's one -.-

Not the best time to fall sick yet God played a prank on me :(
*but he eventually healed me which is a miracle, thankgod!*

Can't wait for this week to end before I can enter into the recess week! Woohooo. So many things waiting for me to do. Sometimes, I wish I could spilt myself up but I can't :(

P.S I've moved back to the East already. Living in construction site state, with all the cement and wires still hanging around. haha tell me about civilization. Probably the whole house will only be done in Nov/Dec.
