Heh..this week's akin to "openhouse" for the various clubs and societies! I was stationed at 三角地 to do promotion for SICA and 爱心社。heh..it was fun (other than having to be there at 7.30am in the morning with strong wind blowing) to see many familiar faces walk past as well as hearty chats with people whom I hadn't known in the association. :) Interviews for the newbies this coming weekend. It's been quite a hectic week..rushing for lessons and being a little behind schedule for my readings. Was also involved in helping with the eng-chi translation for the Singapore FGS Intro!
A glance at my confirmed modules this semester!
Compulsory modules: 1. 中国古代史(下)...Chinese History ranging from Tang Dynasty to Opium War. 2. 现代汉语 (下)...with focus on Grammar. Ahh. I've found interest in 汉字学(origins of Chinese characters..heheh) 3. 古文选读 ...Selected readings from the ancient times. The teacher loves to pick on me. O_o
Electives: (Leaving Comp App (2) till Yr 2 and sport modules till summer school!) 1. 中国文化史 Chinese Culture History..quite interesting, with wide coverage on the arts, science and technology, geography,philosophy,religion and some eastern/western cultural differences. 2. 社会学导论...Ahh I was very fortunate to be able to get this module..intro to sociology! Heh..im loving it. 3. 生活中的心理学..Psychology has always been what I wanted. Great. I will continue to take psycho modules for the rest of my sems! :) 4. 影视鉴赏. Ha..it's really not just about watching movies..contrary to popular belief. Learning to appreciate the art of film-making. Watched Alfred Hitchcock's "Rear Window"...quite funny.
Taking 20 credits this sem. Max already. Ahh..I just completed HPAIR applications. So last minute. ^_^ Dateline is today.
What to expect for the coming week: 1. Talk by Pakistan's Foreign Minister next Mon afternoon! Something to be excited about. :D 2. SICA Newbies Interview (weekend) 3. IKEA shopping! yay...I still need to get somemore cushions, beanies, small carpet and a new set of bedsheet :)

A clash between Idealism & Realism
Learning to appreciate simplicity in a complicated world.
In the mOod for chocs!
It's not that chocolates are a substitute for love. Love is a substitute for chocolate. Chocolate is, let's face it, far more reliable than a man. ~Miranda Ingram
Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you are going to get!
"There are two kinds of people in the world. Those who love chocolate, and communists."
