Today seems to have been a really pointless day. I spent probably 3 hours on work and like the other 12 hours slacking? I have come to totally dislike public holidays that are close to exams.. For one, its so blardy mafan to find food, and even if I were to go out, it'll just make me guilty for not studying. Not to mention, going out kinda seems like me just wandering around aimlessly these days :S
But then again, I somehow don't have that much to study which was the reason why I slacked so much. More on my workload this sem when I actually get to it.
If today were to just disappear, it wouldn't have mattered to me cause I did absolutely nothing productive. Oh, but Greys Anatomy is awesome by the way.
Chris chris, complained that you didn't get to live the same hour twice.. But give you one whole day also never make use of it.. What's one hour compared to one day? sigh
Goodnight world!

Nature has a way of making sure that things comes in sets of twos.
It takes two to tango.
There are two things that make a pair.
It takes two hands to clap.
Two people is what makes a couple.
And two commited people to make a marriage.
It takes two to be best friends, to start a dialogue, to double the fun and square the craziness.
And for all the lonely people out there, there's always you... and God.

and so my design project has come to an end. 25 days spending probably an average of 6 hours or more on the project and now its all over. i should be glad its over, people are teling me to be glad its over. if only i could control our emotions and tell myself to be glad...
how i ended up in a totally random group is still a wonder to me. how i idiotically assumed and didnt fight for what i want. initially, i naively believed that i could do it all. we know and were told that design project takes up alot of time, but hey, i'm me and i still believed i could handle it all. what a joke eh? dont get me wrong tho, there were people in my group that i could actually count on and that kept me going. i guess there are people outside your usual group of friends that you can count on. there may be few, but they are out there.
presentation was today, or rather yesterday. worked my ass off on the presentation slides the day before, and i must say i'm dammed proud of it. it kinda feels like i'm taking powerpoint slides to a different dimension. but after watching the first group present, i realised how naive my slides are. totally misjudged the point of the presentation. theres was totally a lack of constructive criticism within my group. i guess this points to lack of preparation. imagine that our ppt slides were only compiled half an hour before the presentations began. as much as i would like to believe i am, it appears i'm not invincible after all..
eventually there were frustrating moments, which started happening more frequently. there were times when i worked on this project that i felt like giving up. multiple times. but i managed to tell myself its not about the grades but what i learn and take away from it. this should be a step in the right direction. that education is more than just the grades i end up getting. in truth, reflecting on the last month, it seems that i have walked away with more than just engineering knowledge. i had fun interacting with the external consultant. i grew closer to friends in times of such adversity, yes, the adversity of design project. the countless problems thrown at us and the solutions which may seem to make little sense at all. hopefully friendships lasts and its not just me sticking out a solo hi-five.
but i guess in the past 3years of uni, i have been working towards getting a better cap. i was motivated. i drew my inspiration from those around me. its just not so easy to give up something you have been working for, especially after such a long time. at the end of the day, the grade still matters, dont they?
chris feels lost at sea without an anchor... floating aimlessly...
