Finally I'm going overseas this Dec.

This calls for a celebration. Yay!

Despite soaking myself in the murky waters, getting sunburnt, gulping down seawater through the nose,having muscle aches, I still enjoyed my first windsurfing experience.

Today's course is superb, having lots of time practical in the open sea trying to windsurf. Most of the time, I ended up falling into the water than on the surf board. But by afternoon, this problem is somewhat solved with more experience.

Tried out some other stunts like 180 degree turn, jibing,tacking etc. The only thing I could get it right is the 180 degree after so much effort.

I will need more practice.

Today's talk on Trading Psychology was super disappointing. I thought this seminar would give me a deeper understanding on how the human psychology affects the trends in the market, but this was not the case. Instead, it talked about the causes of failures/successes that are based on what was termed "cognitive bias". Somehow I don't find this very practical for use.

In this case, I know nuts about it. So in the end, I ended up leaving the seminar learning nothing at all. What a waste of time. Should have gone for the SN lecture instead.

I just came to realise I have totally forgotten to update my blog for almost a week. pardon me for that, since there isn't any fixed schedule to blog.

Life pretty busy trying to catch up on studies that had fallen behind since the mid-terms was over. Too much readings to do till I barely had time for myself. But I shall not let these studies take control over my entire life. I must find some entertainment.

For now, I shall listen to some Jay's new song - Niu Zai Hen Mang for some "out-of-the world" entertainment.

p.s yesterday South Asian lect was super funny, the lecturer spent almost 10mins trying to teach guys tips on how to woo girls (he said girls like guys who are vulnerable, is that true?). Iwonder what his definition of vulnerability was.

And half the time watching Indian commercials.

After watching her splendid performance in Jay's movie- Secret, I was totally mesmerized by her unique, one & only character (this is probably the 1st time I can sense the X-factor so strongly).
Seems that there is another movie of hers coming up soon. I wonder when will it be released?

Usually people will say that they got 26/40. This time round I got 26/40 wrong instead for my Genes & Society module. I'm just utterly disappointed by my own results.

But I'm fuming because this test seems so illogical.There are just so many trick questions inside this paper that I gave up completely trying to listen for the correct answer. My morale was like damn low, especially when the lecturer gave the answer with this underlying tone "this answer so simple, how come you all just don't understand?" It's so fustrating.

Can you believe there are some questions that have 2 correct answers, some answers come from elimination instead of it being the accurate one, and the most funny, the answer comes from assumptions. Arghhh... Makes my blood boil trying to blog about it.

GEK1527 is hopeless.

And I thought I got very low marks when I overhead someone in front saying he only got 10/40. I ought to find some consolation that I'm actually not at the bottom of the chart.

Completed my South Asian mid test today, and that leaves only the Genes & Society test on Sat before I can completely take a short break from studies.

Done with my philosophy, history paper after much brain-damaging sessions, and the last essay to be done is Genes & Society again.

Life should be pretty slack after this week. I'm so looking forward to kbox with the crew tomorrow. And the test on sat?

S/U it. lol.
