first, monday! super cool day! hahaha. for the first time, didn't have to wake up so early. can sleep in on a weekday! cool huh. haha. not used to it. but got to keep the momentum there la! hahaa

school was awesome! loving my CS1101 even more! and especially my SSA lesson! didn't understand a single word lecturer was saying lol. but after reading the notes again and again, finally grasp what she was saying! its like, what my friend would say, an "enlightenment". lol. anyway, during lecture we watched the full movie "Bujang Lapok". super funny, its a malay b/w movie with subtitles! love it. now got to do a reflection of the movie though. about how the camera play a part in sending the message behind the message etc etc.. haha

also learnt the basics of "film-ology". lol. learnt a lot of new words "Mise-en-scene" and stuff. cool!! =) wide pan! whip pan! frying pan! lol. no, no frying pan. but its cool! =) gives me a broader view as to how the camera and character and clothes and lighting and sounds all play a part in portraying a certain message.

The first thing that the lecturer talked about was "Why is singapore film called singapore film, and not singaporean film? why is it singapore idol and not singaporean idol?". intimidating. but after her explanation, i finally understand! LOL!!

at night, went for sign language class. was cool, learnt more new words. BUT i lost my notes!! rawr!! hope to find it back again. lol.

second. tuesday! awesome man. after lesson, was suppose to study with violet and huishan

ended up talking more than studying! we MUST focus ar! =) haha celiana crashed our party too! had fun talking to her!! =) she's so smart and awesome!! and she took SSA2218 before!! =) i can ask her for help for that module! =D

it was this time that NUS IT CO-OP decided to give me a call and told me the laptop was ready for pickup wednesday! but wed i have no school.. but because i really want the laptop, i booked an appointment for wednesday. =D initially expected date of arrival is 4th sept. it brought forward by 1 1/2 weeks! amazing!! it was a pleasant surprise for me. =)

night! went for choir pract! was a crazy rush down to church haha. had a crazy bus ride with violet too! lol. we talked about really random stuff.

choir pract was.. erm.. interesting.. chinese performance! cool! but i just wanna say this. the lady, guest singer who came to practice with us? she's really good. i love her voice! =)

went to sch just to collect laptop. hahaha. =)

after that went to set up my laptop with my school network and attempt to connect my new macbook pro to the printer.. but all in vain.. not the macbook's fault. school printer.

after trying a while, and doing the rest of the school's administrative installation onto my com, went down to mellinia walk to meet up with my pei en and vanessa.
