Hmm realised its been a LOONG time since I actually updated this heh heh. More than a month now. So much has happened, it would be tiring to type it all down. In summary, I had an excellent winter break with great company (all thanks to Leonard, Pearl and Rivai).

Kinda relieved to have Bioen 302 out of the way... now my main worry would be biochemistry. Sigh. Demmit I hate biochem.
Its weird how it seems as though some pple have to study really hard while others don't have to at all. I know my neighbours have been watching tv and playing PS2 the whole time I'm struggling at my books.

A friend of mine complained to me today that he 'needed a girl else he wouldn't feel happy'. I thought that was kinda sad....
I think we all need to appreciate other things in life rather than just focusing on a relationship.

To many, its a sacred (religious) path to take; to declare each other as man and wife, to live happily ever after. Or, to some pple, it is merely a license allowing both parties to have sex. Lol.

Its probably true that time seems to pass u by faster when u're enjoying urself. Think that probably the longest ever weekend i had was when I had to spend it typing a lab report. :( That sucked.
Sometimes I wonder if the professors actually just rack their brains figuring out a lab that would puzzle us more rather than help us understand the stuff they're teaching.

I must admit that my heart sank quite a bit when I first saw it; seemed kinda charred and burnt. We probably put it in the oven for an hour too long. :( Ah well. We all learn from our mistakes. Even so, the turkey was still very much edible. We ate as much as we could but it was simply too big; there's probably still a quarter left. Overall, it was a great Sparkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09897554512669889296noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6110217.post-1069956647926104202003-11-27T10:10:00.000-08:002003-11-27T10:10:56.970-08:00Baking turkey in Bren's place now; and so far it has been quite an experience. No prior experience of making one watsoever; basically all we did was generously cover the turkey with olive oil, honey, oregano, basil, dill weed, pepper, salt, parsley and now its just sitting there while we leave it to marinate. :D Gonna stick it in the oven in an hour or so... hahaha. Wonder how it'll turn out.

I mean the bio stuff is fine and dandy, I really enjoy it. Its really the engineering part which I sometimes dread. Probably because I understand the bio stuff much better than I do with the engin stuff.

I just had to break a piece of bad news to a friend... which kinda reminded me of it as well. An army friend (lets just call him W) recently passed away. It was a bit of a nasty shock; at first we (the NS gang) heard that he had gotten cancer last year. Apparently he battled through that phase and got through it pretty well; I went to see him during my Sparkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09897554512669889296noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6110217.post-1069577895745291652003-11-23T00:58:00.000-08:002003-11-23T01:27:37.496-08:00Today was a day spent immersing in a favourite pastime of Americans - watching college football games. Think that its growing on me... growing to like the sport more and more. And its not just because I find the game enjoyable to watch, its the whole atmosphere in the 70000 plus Husky stadium.

Don't think that it was because of superb studying on my part, rather the test was of an easier standard. Just hope I do better than the last time la.
Leonard says with the exams over, he is 'lost'.
