When worlds collide

Everything's happening so fast, it seems that life is melting together into one continuous stream of events. i can rarely recall the chronological order of things in my life anymore, and most of the time i only have a faint idea of whether something happened this week or last week. please try to understand if you notice and anachronism in my posts, cos im only trying to get the general idea through.

firstly is something that happened last week (cant rmb if it was thursday or friday :/ ): the teacher in charge of the sapphire scholars programme approached me to ask if i would like to join. i jumped at the chance, cos honestly i had the dumbest of reasons not to apply for it last year: one of the criteria for application was a napfa silver, and i failed my napfa last year (23-point fail ftw). when i told the teacher this she seemed kind of shocked, like she didnt even know that such a criterion even existed. in hindsight i gues it was pretty stupid, but at that time i was still emoing about being the most unfit guy in NJ hockey. well, im still the most unfit guy today, but at least that's cos the entire team has been improving together :)

monday was my second NTU H3 lecture. all the things i said before, about how seemed to teach more biology and chemistry than physics, i take it all back. the learning curve is absurdly steep, but i guess that's what H3 is all about. it seemed quite clear from this second lecture that im gonna have to revise through my integration and differentiation, and pay extra attention during vectors lectures.

lessons, training, talking cock, the usual happenings... and something else that didnt happen as frequently last year, the clashing of schedules. homework + H3 + OGL + hockey = a serious lack of time. oh well, a compromise here, a sacrifice there, i believe i'll make it in the end.

and that group, that club... well, if you have me added on facebook then chances are you know what im talking about, and if you dont then dont expect me to elaborate too much about it in a public place like a blog cos im caught in quite an awkward situation myself. anyway, you guys can do anything you want, cos seriously im just interested to see how things will develop :) but that display pic is... *facepalm*

O2 is only 2 days away! totally psyched about it. to heck with all the lectures and tutorials im gonna miss, cos orientation will make it all worthwhile.
