Of Three Short Notes


I’m feeling a short-notes format for this post. So here we go! xD

Camp Fun
During Chinese New Year’s one week break, I volunteered to join a 3-day leadership camp as a representative of my club. I was thinking like, okay, I never went to any outdoorsy, camping-ish activities before in uni, so why not? And I could gain experience participating in it at least once while in uni. So I did, and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed myself during that 3-day period! The best part was meeting and getting to know awesome people, and working together as a team with those peeps. I had good fun drawing a cow, designing my group’s logo, playing simplified stock market, and building a boat made out of a box, black bin plastic bags and lotsa tape. My group got second last for overall performance (we aimed to be the last since we were the last group xD), but we got the highest for our programme proposal! Aaaand, I made it through a full obstacle course! With much yelling and screaming! xD Another best part I noted was getting to know people and their leadership auras (like whoooaaaa). By then, I started to believe that my generation would turn out alright in the future. They are that amazing individuals.

Work Rejection
After holidays were over, this week has been hmm, pretty neat. I simply rejected from doing any form of academic work throughout the weekdays. The only work I did was my scripts for the talk show. I was embracing my dismissal of certain subjects, one that I absolutely, willingly and adamantly rejected. My total refusal to commit, even associate myself in any way possible with that subject is so strong; I amuse myself. xD My thanks to the lecturer. Plus, I didn’t bother to send in an assignment that was due two days after someone revealed to me the due date for it. I couldn’t put myself into bludgeoning my brain overnight with research (that assignment requires a lot of it) like before, and then skipping classes again the next day. And I didn’t wanna submit a half-assed work to an awesome lecturer. Let it be late, but quality work (if only this principle applies to the working world xP). Therefore, no work was done. Life can be simple. xD

In Between
I met one of my close friends and we talked about how tiring this semester’s been getting. She said, “ I can’t wait for this semester to be over.” Then it suddenly hit me. I never thought of that before. I mean, sure, I can no longer accept certain subjects I’m taking, up to the point where I could not wait to go back home every weekend, but I’ve never really given a thought about wanting to end this semester so badly. So I replied, “Hmm, yeah… Well, I feel like, a part of me want this semester to end, another does not.” Why? Coz even with the stupid subjects (actually, this is all the lecturers’ doings. I’m sorry to say this but it’s true) I’m taking, I’m sad of letting go of an incredible lecturer of mine who established the campus radio I’m currently on right now for practicum. He’s not the only one leaving, one of my best friends, the babe, is leaving too after this semester. It’s an inevitable heartbreak that I refuse to let it sink in my reality. Why keep reminding of the sadness? Just live life exuberantly while they are both here. =)
