To start off, last weekend, I had the farewell UC EAP dinner with our NUS Advisor Daisy at this really nice buffet, with the rest of our UC EAP students one last time as a big group. Was kind of our farewell dinner, since it would be a lot harder for us to get together quite often now, with finals approaching, people travelling and such. It was all covered by our wonderful eap director Daisy of course haha, always down for a free meal especially a buffet you know! It was quite a memorable night, because it's been a while since i've seen some of our UC Eap students, actually talked with some of them, and kind of hit me that, we would be leaving very soon, and going off on our different paths once again. Whether it would be back to our respective UC's ( go irvine!), or entering the work force/grad school, or even for the few that are staying one year here as well! Was kind of a bittersweet night, but made me really cherish these moments we had here, the outings we had, the people I've met, and all the amazing new things I tried, and can't forget the travelling experiences as well!
Definitely made me realize how short time is, and I just need to make the most out of it, and this definitely was one of the highlights of my life. Deciding to come to UC EAP Singapore 2012, to study abroad. I really will miss everything about this, but very excited to be going back home as well, so BITTERSWEET, in everything as of the moment. More Importantly, so excited to be having REAL CHINESE FOOD (Panda Express)!, can't believe they don't have orange chicken, and chow mein here, so disappointed, when I first came to Singapore haha...
Enough of this jibber jabber..haha to update more on what's going on as of the moment, it is currently my last week of lecture right now. Yes I know it's only early november, and I don't come back till the 15th haha... After this week of lecture, I have a week off until finals officially begin, they call it Reading Week here, where it's a week off just for studying for finals, or travelling :). I will be travelling to Bintan just for a short weekend starting this Sat from (sat - mon), so off to INDO again, i'm sure it'll be better this time, and not as sketch since i'm not going there alone haha.....
- After this reading week, we have 2 weeks of finals, but for me, I don't start until December 1st - till the 4th, which is quite stupid because I have Finals on the Saturday.. -_-...friggin a, this shouldn't be allowed even in Singapore haha....
So I feel very unprepared/screwed for finals, because one, there's so much reading to do/catch up/start on haha....and these Singaporeans scare me sometimes, on how much they study, making me feel like I should be reading/studying something else, though I don't really know what... sigh.... -_-
Well Besides the upcoming finals coming up/being screwed/panic mode/mental breakdowns about to occur sometime soon, still have a lot to figure out even back home, such as registering for classes back home, finding a place to stay in Irvine, so i'm not homeless when I go back to school for winter quarter. Along with that, my travel plans for after finals, since I end on December 4th, plan on travelling from either the 4th/5th - 14th. Plan is to go to Cambodia/Vietnam once again, though I've been there before, really excited to go there outside of the missions field, see what the culture is really like/ interact with the locals/ and experience more of these countries. Mainly just end my Study Abroad exp. with a bang before I head back home haha....
Think that's about it for now, and for those still keeping up with my blogs, Thanks! and i'll try to update more often, and with pictures as well!
