My bad for the no-update. I’m currently enjoying the last few days of winter break. Come Tuesday it’ll be back to being a chao mugger. I already received some not too good news regarding one of the subjects I’m taking – ADV410. Prof Olsen emailed to “warn” us of the schedule which includes lots of presentations and projects. “Presentation” –…

Enjoy some snow from Urbana, Illinois. Taken today.
no more 4.0
I just sealed my fate. No more GPA 4.0 for this semester. I haven’t gotten that before, but am trying very very hard to reach it. Well, my Japanese Literature Prof made an irresistable offer which was the choice to take the final exam. If we were happy with our current grade from all the activities so far, we could…
third best
Deary and I had both gotten perfect scores for our Macroecons essays, so did quite a few others. However, I was quite sure that Deary would make it among the best 15 when Prof Baer read out the names. The 15 essays were made up of the 3 best essays from each TA’s sections. I was jokingly announcing Deary’s name for best essay.…
momo monsters eat lamb chops
It all began with me asking deary which state has the abbreviation ‘MO’. Missouri right? Deary was trying to be funny; he said “momo”. He then asked me, “Momo is something right?” I said, “Yea, peach.” I told him momo reminded me of Momo monsters and our Primary school penmanship exercises. I think it was in Primary 2 that Momo…
polite form, plain form
Switching from polite form to plain form and back again is confusing. However, I finally totally understand what Per said years ago. Like “ă©ăă«ăăăź?” and “ăăŸăăăăă!” I mean, I understood before that the former was asking where I am, but I didn’t really understand the context of the question. ă§ăăç§ăŻé ćŒ”ăăŸă! PS: I hate going through registration every semester. It always makes me…
cosplay and lolita
I think I’m just…old. Parties are just not for me. Hmmm…or maybe it depends on the company. SSA had their Halloween party last night at Yongji’s one-bedroom apartment. I have to stress that it was a one-bedroom apartment coz the number of people in there was…IMPOSSIBLE. While everyone was so freakin’ high, KS and I were just relaxing at one…
present for me
Ok, shall post up those long-awaited photos. “Autumn is upon us once again…” This was what I had in mind when I saw the tree with its flaming leaves. (I think the tree is botak now.) Â My room at Stoughton St. Deary had a surprise for me yesterday. There were 2 parcels from Amazon waiting for me to open…
a little update for now
Wah lau…class is cancelled for today. o_O And I stayed up to read 3 chapters of “Tales of The Heike” just to be prepared for class. Ok, what am I talking, I should be prepared for class. If you think it’s some boring history shit, it’s not. It’s mildly entertaining, reading about monks gone bad, people who spontaneously combust because of bad…
