OOOOoooo... 2 more days to go le... not really feeling excited YET... tink i'm getting old... i r'ber last yr i was v.excited abt New Year Countdown & partying with DaR & having Xin to join us... But tis year, beside not feeling excited YET, i'm actually trying to tok DaR into "nuah"ing at home AGAIN & avoid the crowds on New Year Countdown... keke =P imagine to see lotza ppl roaming ard the streets everywhere to get a cab... & u can be put on hold for like an hr for them to find a cab for u even if u are willing to pay extras for the booking fees on top of the midnite charges...
R'ber last yr DaR was ald dead drunk after the countdown & we weren't able to get a cab home to Tampines... i don't understand why no cabs are willing to go Tampines from town... We made 3 calls at the same time... & Woodlands got a cab, Bishan got a cab, but Tampines had no1... So we beg the Uncle who's supposed to send Sean Lee to Bishan give us a lift too... Lucky for us, the Uncle says ok... if not, tink we gotta wait till the sun comes out liao... The thought of not able to get a cab freaks me out BIG TIME... so i really hope we can like avoid the crowds & had an earlier meeting with Sean, Nick & guys like a day earlier instead... DaR will do the coordinating neh... See how the response loh...
as i say b4, he aka my DaR, being the New Age INsensitive Guy don't believe in giving surprises, won't secretly buy somethg & surprises u but rather be more practical... He told me straight tt he's gonna get me e Citizen Watch i blogged on for birthday... *blogging works neh* keke... i haven't really see the actual watch yet... so i went to try it on before asking DaR to buy for me... BUT hoh, the watch turns out a little BIG on my wrist... = (
See... the face of the watch is as BIG as the width of my wrist...
a closer take... it's nice though... but dunno if it looks too big on me... DaR says if i like still can buy... the watch not cheap loh... so better consider 1st... later buy liao don't wear v.wasted de leh...
It's exactly one mth from Chinese New Year le... & Mum has been frequently nagging me to shop for my New Year clothing... cos v.soon i'm going back to my no life aka wrk-sch-home-wrk-sch-home days... btw, did i mentioned tt i did much better tis sem for my exams... cleared with 2B+ & 1B-... tink tt's my limit liao... for a not-so-clever me, Granny, Mum, etc praised me for my effort... keke =P But from the rate i'm going, i'll only get a 3rd class honors loh... Hiaks... In NUS, we have a CAP system... A+=5; A=5; A-=4.5, B+=4; B=3.5; B-=3; C+=2.5; C=2; D+=1.5; D=1; F=0
Class of Honours 1st Class: 4.5 and above, plus at least an 'A minus' in the Final Year Project 2nd Class Upper: 4.0 to 4.49 2nd Class Lower: 3.5 to 3.99 3rd Class: 3.2 to 3.49 Pass: 2.0 to 3.19 Fail: Below 2.0
So to at least get a 3rd class u need to be constant with ur grades & score B- & above... even a straight B- throughout the 4yrs won't qualified for 3rd class... there's no moderation of CAP... 3.19 means 3.19 & u juz get a pass... they won't pity u & round up to 3.2 give u a 3rd class de... NUS is v.strict with this... my Sis graduated from NUS say de loh... Hiaks...
So for a not-so-clever me, who only got an A- for the past 2yrs & have accumulated Bs, Cs & worst Ds, got 3rd class should be happy le... but DaR tink likewise loh... he tink getting a 3rd class is as good as a normal degree pass... *sob sob*
Anyway, hopefully diff ppl have diff views to this bah... But for a not-so-clever me, coming tis far is ald not easy liao... let alone reaching for the stars......
