Just watched a video on PETA, on Jas' blog. I know the fur trade is really bad, but wtf are the Chinese thinking. What gives them the right to judge an animal's life. WTF! Really disgusted after watching the video. Shit, full of emotions right now, have no idea what else to say. 3 cheers for humans.
p.s. anybody interested in obliterating the chinese, im in for it, really ashamed to be a chinese after watchin this video

Lethargy...
I have no idea why am i feeling so lethargic these few days. Have to force myself out of my bed even though im already awake. As a result, i have no mood to do anything for the whole day, my mind will wander in lectures and i will be stoning half way through lectures. Hate this feeling.
Argh!! Another thing i hate is that i have to study biochemistry again! Have already done it in JC, why can't they let me carry over credits. It's such a waste of money and a waste of time to be doing something you've already done before. On the other hand, my brain is really 'rusty'. Think NS really screwed me up, lol. Most of the chemistry stuff that i've studied for 2 yrs in JC has faded away. Guess i have the short term memory syndrome lol. Hopefully i wont forget all the things im studying now.
Anyway had my 1st lecture that had something to do with being a veterinarian today. Why do i say this? It's because the past few weeks i've been studying about causal diagrams, a couple of lecture on 'What is life?" (like wth), and some other boring lectures. Today's lecture is on bone and skeletal system in dogs. Terms used in veterinary practice are very different from human medicine prac. 1st lecture only and there are so many terms to memorise already, i think i will have to get myself a dog's skeleton to know the parts better.
Ok that's it for this entry. Gonna try to turn in early, having difficulties slping at night these few days. Something's terribly wrong with me. Good night all, take care.

Night creatures...
Just here to write a short little entry... Have been seeing this little guy arnd the hse at night...hopping from 2nd story to the frangipani tree outside my rm to the ground. It then walks in a psychomotor function(NS guys will get it) on the ground in search of food. It is furry with a very long tail and has a black tip at the end of it's tail. Sometimes it seems like it's begging food from us lol, usually we will feed it bread. It isn't afraid of humans at all, when i open my gate, it will just turn arnd and look at me lol. Since it is like staying with us(though it only shows up at night), i think i will classify it as our hse pet =) Below are it's pictures.....
p.s. After writing all these, it was still loitering outside when i i went out to get some water to boil lol

Clearing cobwebs
Well done! Really getting very lazy to blog. Haha. Sorry people.
So here I am, in front of my com, typing out an entry just to appease you people.
1st week of school
Attended lectures that were damn boring. It was all about introduction to the different courses that i took. Tuesday was the worst, had 7 hrs of lecture with only an hr of break for lunch. I think it was on Tuesday that i didn't get to eat lunch, was starving during lecture, hate that feeling. Our 1st assignment also was given on this wk, due on 16th April. Yeah so had lectures all the way till Friday, and come next wk, the lecturers aren't gonna print out notes for us anymore, we had to print it out ourselves. Anyway, week ended with a Vet sch party called Smoko, Tropicana themed, on Friday, the last day of March. I guess this was the most interesting thing that happened in this wk.
Before the party, we had a BBQ(again) with our 5th yr seniors, sadly i still didn't get to meet my 5th yr mentor and not all of the 1st yr turned up. But yup i still got free dinner, love free stuff =). So mingled around with the the few 1st yrs that turned up. Then we got the green light to go into the dance floor. Our vet sch courtyard was converted into a dance floor and there was a bar in the corner. Beer for 2bucks, spirits for 3bucks, fruit punch for 2 bucks. Think we were there too early, the place was still rather empty with pockets of ppl arnd. Stood for freaking 1 hour plus before the crowd started to pour in. Went around to mingle with more 1st yrs, we had to shout at each other because the music was getting louder n louder. So got to know more people which is damn cool, think only in this sort of events then we will get to know one another better.
The party continued until 12am. But i left with a couple of friends from college back to their own college. Mark(i guess you're reading this), had 3 cans of beer n his face was damn red lol, when we got back to his college(International House), he started to look around for his friends. He was damn high n talking lots of nonsense Haha! Yeah so got to know some of his friends in college and chatted until 12am. Went home after that and so the 1st academic week ended.
In terms of co-curriculum activities, i have been gg to the gym every night. Lol. Don't call me crazy as it beats going to parties and getting myself drunk. Guess I'm really into the 'fit' lifestyle. Sometimes at night, I played soccer with people from International House(IH). Feels so gd to be able to play soccer, on carpet grass! We played in the Great Court(as seen in the pics), which is illegal but security wasn't tight so we didn't care.
On saturday, I went for a BBQ(again and again) in South Bank. It was organised by the UQ Singapore Student Society(UQSSS). It was utterly disappointing. Firstly, we had a tough time looking for them, secondly we had to share a place with some Japanese, thirdly only 20 odd people turned up. Sad that i didnt get to see any attractive singaporeans there. So i think i left after an hour or so.
On sunday, didnt do anything much, was reading through some notes and basically just relaxing.
2nd week of school
It is only the 2nd day so wont have much updates.
On monday, was basically a slack day, went to school for maybe 1/2 an hour only. Got to collect our slideboxes. As the name implies, it was a box of slides of different animal cells. It cost a freaking 50 bucks, at least we will get it back sometime next yr i guess. Didnt have lecture until 12pm. It was a lecture on how to use the library facilities -.-!! It lasted for an hour and i headed to IH for group study. Had been spending a lot of time at IH these past few days haha. Went back home at night to cook my dinner. At night, went to the gym again Haha.
Today was a very sad day, cause i had to spend money on textbooks. Sigh, spend a 170 bucks on 2 txtbks, like wth la. Txtbks here are so expensive! My brother said he couldnt find the txtbks in Sg so had no choice but to purchase it in Aus. Sorry bro made you run around to help me look for my txtbks.
You have reached the end of my entry. Good night all, take care!
P.S Cooking is really troublesome. Have to think of what to cook and go for grocery shopping. You people out there who are taken care of by your parents or maid better appreciate it. Get headaches thinking of what to cook. But well i enjoy cooking my own meals w/o VEG!!!!! =)
