Hey guys.

Thought I'll add some more stuff to this thingy. If anyone know a blogger website, pls inform me alright? Wld love to change the template of this blog. Cheers.

I've exam tmr and I've just spent the afternoon creatin this thing. Am I suicidal or wht? Think so. Scared stiff just as we speak because I know nuts abt the Microeconomics exam tmr! (More like peanuts) I need to do some serious MUGGIN tonight. As ya guys know. I'm a chao mugger durin exams and the slackest of slackest durin term. Good luck to me and all those havin exams: Nun, Lim Lee, Wendy, Mark C., Nick, Marc L. and others tht I am too brain-dead to think abt. Study hard!

Hm. Lesson of the day. I think this is the pivotal issue of "bein compeitive but not overdoin it".

I'd these friends whom I was very close with durin the 1st few wks of uni. Always at one of their places till the wee hrs of the morn. They are doin Commerce or Econs degrees. And they always mock me because I am relative young to be in uni and tht "I stress them out." They claim to say tht I always tell them I don't study when I am actually studyin very hard. It's obviously so ironic coz ALL MY WAKIN HRS ARE SPENT WITH THEM and I WAS NEVER DO MY WORK to the extent I was laggin in sch work big time. They say tht they hate pple who always say they don't study but yet are always studyin. (Referrin to me I think.) Anywho. I did this essay with one of them, let's call him X. I wrote the essay and he copied it off me, though he gave me some good ideas. The essay was submitted and returned yesterday. So I msg-ed him yesterday and this was wht unfolded:

Me: Hey, wht did ya get for ya essay?
X: Bad. Very bad lah. You?
Me: 16. (it's out of 20) You?
X: 18.

I mean, wht the hell? Why say this sorta thing? I usually close one eye and stuff, not carin abt it. But considerin he is my friend and he hates pple sayin stuff tht they do otherwise, he actually said wht he said. I feel quite relieved tht I stopped hangin out with them 3wks ago coz I think I need to prioritize and re-consider my position here. Lucky my other friends have been quite supportive and I've been hangin out in the lib cafe and lib just to try do my work.

So guys. I really learnt somethin frm this thing. Be true to others as ya want them to be true to them. When I study, I don't deny it. It's also a wake-up call to me to question myself who are my friends and those I can really trust. Esp when I am far away frm home. For those tht know me well (i.e. Gerald, Mark L., Min, pJ) ya know I don't wanna be hurt anymore. And I value friendship so much more after those ordeals tht change my life. Many a time, it haunts me here 24-7 as if I am force to relive it. But we can only look towards the future and never the past.

This new blog again, is dedicated to my best friend and may he visit me sometime soon, where ever he may be.

Tk care guys. Can't wait to hear frm ya. Love ya. Cheers.

Yours always,
Rach
