Haka


Ka mate! Ka mate! Ka ora! Ka ora!
Ka mate! Ka mate! Ka ora! Ka ora!
Tenei te tangata puhuru huru
Nana nei i tiki mai
Whakawhiti te ra
A upa ... ne! ka upa ... ne!
A upane kaupane whiti te ra!
Hi !!!

I die! I die! I live! I live!
I die! I die! I live! I live!
This is the hairy man who fetched the
Sun And caused it to shine again
One upward step! Another upward step!
An upward step, another.. the Sun shines!!

Brilliant......

Bahhh..... Im getting cranky......
Studying really a bore.......

BP and FA is still not that bad...... Practising questions are so much better than staring at little streams of words..... Those little blots curve into lines are meant to be a torturing mechanism......

Sigh~~~ We were still discussing during lunch over a conspiracy theory...... That the TV programs, movie schedules and soccer games always get darn good and exciting prior to the exams....... When the exams actually ended, you feel like theres nothing on air thats even worth looking at for minutes........

HCM and PMSB is really lagging behind schedule....... I finally understand the repulsive scent of certain modules....... You can do 1001 things but not those essential ones........ Like reading the notes and text.......

Praise God for helping my dad....... :)
6 more days to freedom.......

On a side note..... I pull out of two events this time period....... Pulled out from the Standard Chartered Marathon....... I really cant afford the time to train for it....... Sigh~~~

I jogged 5km just to reaffirm my decision........ Yeah..... My legs kinda reiterate the same thing to my brains........

I also pulled out from the various elections nominations of SMU Ambassadors....... Im squeezed tight next semester and I dont really know whether I can cope....... I probably can but at the expense of what??? Relationship, leisure, family or friends?? Well, I dont really wanna try.......
But on the other hand, I really feel like holding leadership position and do something for the school........ Im really not suited for a follower role...... Im just too vocal and active for that....... Which might not be a good thing.......

Well well....... The impact of rejecting the nominations got to me when the nominees list was released and Im not on it........ Oh well...... Time not on my side...... I will just use any time to do certain things which I always want to do but haven got the chance...... Learning guitar!!!!
Ho ho ho..... :P

Cheerios Peepz.....

Stress!!!!!!

4 papers and one more submission to go........ Im losing confidence in this semester.......
The aim I set out to get is losing its sight.......

My forecast on my results are usually quite accurate.......
As of now;

FA: A
AA: A-
PMSB: A-
BP: B+/A-
HCM: B/B+

Best possible GPA: 3.68......
Worst possible GPA: 3.54......

Bahhhh....... HCM holds the key.......
AA, PMSB could very well save the day.......

It all boils down to the final examination hence Im freaking stress........ Im beginning to doubt my choice of major....... Sigh~~~ Notorious Prof could very well doom and trample everything which you set upon......
Well well......

Good luck to everyone for the papers.......
An even more accurate forecast will be after the examinations.......
Cheerios peepz......

Just watched a documentary on National Geographic about Mumbai........ They have an unique lunch delivery system that actually achieves 6 sigma quality standard without harnessing any form of technology or paper.......

Its just lunch boxes with numbers and markings, bicycles and alot of illiterate men.......
They are comparable to GE and Motorola in term of quality standards....... And one of the world most efficient system.......

They are the Dabawalas....... Lunch delivery couriers.......

Simply simply amazing.......

Hell week is almost over...... Left with FA report, PMSB report and presentation....... Cleared a helluva bitch for AA....... Left with that individual crap to deal with.......

I sorta crapped for my PMSB 7% quiz...... Totally took it without preparation and got 2.5/7...... Kinda lame to drop points just like that......

Im running out of gas to last the studying week...... Mind over matter......

Completed "Gone For Good" by Harlen Corban....... As good as "Tell No One" but the ending doesnt impress me as much.......

Borrowed Nat's "Vanishing Act" by Jodi Picoult...... Too busy for the past weeks to even do some shopping for my new novels.....
