Let A New Chapter Unfold

So the exam results were out... I was actually aiming for a GPA of 3.5, but I scored higher than that. Hence, I'm HAPPY!!! :D

Although I hoped for at least 1 A but didn't get any, I'm still thankful. I just need to pull it up a little to reach my ideal 3.8 and maintain it so that I can go for my exchange programme overseas.

Well, all I gotta say now is, WATCH YOUR BACK. BECAUSE GARY'S GONNA COME HARD NEXT SEM!!!

Till then, here's Gary, signing off.

Forensic Science All Over Again

Caught "Sherlock Holmes" yesterday and it was so damn awesome!!! Great movie to end the year with. Story was nice, characters were portrayed fantastically and the soundtrack was fitting and excellent (Kudos to Hans Zimmer). I didn't know Guy Ritchie was such a good director! Downey Jr. and Law sure had great chemistry together. Some parts of the film reminded me of the forensic science module though. But it helped to actually have some background knowledge about time of death, putrefaction etc. Haha.

Rating: 5/5

Merry X-Mas Y'all.

I don't know about you guys, but I had an awesome X-mas eve. Thanks to my 5 SIRD buddies for making yourselves present!! :)

Sherlock Holmes tomorrow!!!

East Ocean Has No Hidden Gems

Brought my Mom and Sis to East Ocean @ Shaw Centre for my Mom's birthday treat. We had dim sum there. And were we disappointed in the food's quality.

We actually had high expectations because it wasn't our first time there, but little did we realise that the food changed for the worse.

Egg tarts were a tad too sweet, Bamboo Clams were tough, Dumpling Soup didn't taste good etc etc.

But I gotta commend on their excellent service. Foodwise, Crystal Jade beats it hands-down.

The Element Of Boredom

I seriously can't wait to get back to school. Honestly. I've had enough rest, really.

I'm the kinda person who can't laze around and do nothing all day. School makes my life more meaningful, even if it means mugging like crazy and struggling through tutorials.

Come next hols, the especially long 4-month hols, I'm gonna look for a job. If you want me to just slack through them, I'd rather die.

Nothing Hurts Like...

...Having a wisdom tooth grow out. Frigging painful.

Nice car there.

Burger Delight

Finally tried the Parmesan Chicken Sandwich today. Nice burger, but the marinara sauce kinda masked everything else. I couldn't even taste the chicken. Haha. Cheese was not too empowering so it was good. And as usual, Carl's Jr. fries takes the crown from all other fast-food brands.

The Verdict

Haircut wasn't that bad... I actually signed up as a member. Haha.

Feeling guilty from spending on clothes today... But I couldn't help it. :(

And the worst was that I received my recall letter. Well, I kinda expected it to arrive this month. Anyway, I'm gonna defer it since it's a school day.

Carl's Jr tomorrow!!! Can't wait to devour the new burger they have. :)

Snip Snip

I'm gonna try out Chapter 2 for a haircut tomorrow. It'll be my first time there. Cross my fingers!!

Horrible.

190 was really horrible today. I mean the bus service. For goodness sake increase your bus frequency during the school-holiday period!!! I waited for an hour before I could actually get on a bus. ONE BLOODY HOUR.

Singapore's population too low??! Who the hell are you kidding?

New Chapter. Again.

So I have moved back to Blogger. Yea and I can't believe it myself either. But anyway, LiveBlog on Facebook was a failure. Hence I'm back to traditional blogging.

It's been eons since I last updated about my life (like who the hell cares anyway), so here it is.

Semester 1 came and left in the blink of an eye. Exams were done, and I am now currently trying to find ways to pass the huge amount of spare time that I have during this term break (while waiting for the ill-fated results and atrocious GPA to pop up on my screen on Dec 30th). Well obviously I have yet to make a breakthrough.

Honestly, I felt that 2009 flew by much faster than I thought. I recalled how I was still serving my NS in January, then ORD-ed in Feb, endured a no-brainer job for 5 months, mugged for the first time in 3 years, sat through 13 weeks of tutorials, lectures and lab sessions, followed by a grueling 2-week exam. And POOF!!! I'm now in the middle of December. Isn't it amazing?? Wow.

So the 13-week thing is gonna happen in a few weeks' time. Until then, allow me to slack like a couch potato.

I really wanna watch a movie but there isn't anything nice out right now. And I am not catching Avatar. It has failed to attract me. James Cameron will not top Titanic with this.
