HEh...I finally made a trip down to NUS. It's quite a long journey from home all the way to Clementi. The 96 bus stand at Clementi Interchange is forever that long. :X Met my ex-roomie Kaiqin (NUS Exchange at PKU) at Biz canteen. Was quite surprised to see Beijing food being sold at the canteen. Hee..food there wasn't very nice and it was really crowded (Probably because the Arts canteen is under renovation ^_^)
Thereafter, went to slack at her dorm at Temasek Hall. It seems like the double rooms are much better furnished than the single rooms. ;) Ahh..but none can be compared to PKU's (we don't even have floor tiles..heh) Then in the afternoon went to crash lectures. The first one was Film Analysis..Heh..Citizen Kane. Quite an enjoyable lecture..analysed the meaning behind the appearance of the "wedding gown". Learnt new terms like motif, art of cinematography, how different shots (in and out) are being used as techniques in film making. Due to time constraint, the lecturer hurriedly ended off with "This is what you just have to know...". Very typical of Singapore's education. Heehhe. Notes are well-printed, important points noted for the students. That's quite different from what I experienced in PKU. Lecturer doesn't provide anything at all..hah. Things get really basic and we are trained to listen properly. :)
Oh yes..coincidentally I met Jias and Zhiqi at the AS lecture theatres! :) What a small world. Saw Yanjie (a.k.a. 奶妈!)just as he was rushing for Geog lesson. =)Met a couple of friends by chance. It sets me thinking a lot about fate. Seeing a particular group of people at a specific place and time unplanned. I wonder if we'll ever get to meet if all these didn't take place. Hee...had nice short chats with them before proceeding to the next lecture: 现代文学(中文系). Was quite looking forward to the lecture since the lecturer was 王润华。The lecturer mainly covered 新文学革命之原因--近因/远因。He sidetracks in order to sustain the students' interest. Quite funny though and he made lots of remarks about PKU. ^_^ Thinking of attending his lecture next week again. :D
I think I would be making more trips down to NUS..afterall most of my friends are there! =)

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!
