So I have a new assignment for Journalism class which is to interview a professional journalist. I spent a night scouring online newspapers and plucking out names. I was wondering whether what I was doing would be fruitful at all. Suddenly I had a brilliant idea to look for an LJ community for Journalism. Was thinking that maybe professional people…

education system
You wanna know what’s the difference between the Singapore education system and American education system? I experienced it this morning in MS320 (Popular Culture) class. Our TA, Ms Randolph was going through the lesson slides, we did some group discussion… About 15 minutes to the end of the class, she asked a question referring to the readings we were supposed to…
love candle
We went to Wal-mart yesterday for our usual grocery shopping. After the whole rotting watermelon episode, it was time to get some air freshener. Well, we did get the air freshener, but we got something more… Cute candles! No prize for correct guess which one is mine. 🙂
the disney dream
I went to the informational session and was disappointed to learn that the Disney College Program is not a summer internship program, but a semester program. The catch is I may or may not earn college credit, which means I may end up having to take one more semester (and become a super senior) or cram everything and still graduate…
something good will follow
Lionel’s theory was right. When something bad happens, something good will follow. My group’s phase 1 of our final project for ADV410 scored full marks. I was so worried that we weren’t on the right track. We’re supposed to come up with a PR plan for Parkland College. 🙂 I went to my TA’s office hours for JOUR200. He said…
first ADV411 exam: CUI
I’m screwed. I screwed up my first ADV411 exam. I had the urge to say to the prof, “I think I know what you meant by ‘students usually don’t do well on the first exam’,” when I went up to hand in my paper. 😥 I haven’t been doing too well in Japanese class too coz I hardly look through…
all you have to do is just keep swimming
My kiasu-ness proved useful coz I went to my TA’s office hours twice to make sure my story had no major mistakes, I received an A for my first Journalism assignment. :kirakira: I am trying hard not to slack, but it’s tiring to keep swimming against the current. I’m already behind with my readings and there are exams and major assignments…
a meaningful valentine’s day
Happy Valentine’s Day. Today has never been more meaningful. It is my first Valentine’s Day being attached to someone. Although Deary hasn’t prepared any surprises…and he’s sick. Not very sick, but he’s avoiding spicy or fried food. So, looks like our plan of eating at Woorigib is not possible. Moreover, we both know that we have homework and stuff to…
people, answer your emails please
I wish people would answer their emails promptly. I don’t see the point of having an email if: You don’t check it. You check it once in a blue moon. Sure, I don’t expect people to check theirs the way I check mine every few minutes, but I expect to get a reply at least after a day. Let’s see…
you da suck lahz
I HATE it when customer service staff give that kind of attitude like you owe them a living. I just got off the phone with the guy at the post office. I called to ask if I could reshedule delivery for some packages since Deary would be mostly at home tomorrow. The guy who answered my call was rather curt…
