Stress sets in...

hardcore! yes.. really its really not easy going through these 2 weeks. Its been CRM through and through. Like many of my SP friends i know, I stayed back on at least five occasions over 2 weeks just to get the job done. Skipping lectures and tutorials has become a norm for most of us. As long as the job is done, you wouldnt care what it takes to get it.

In spite of all these, my CRM group managed to come up with the report before the submission date on Friday 12th August. Thanks to you guys for your contribution and effort. Otherwise, we wouldnt have submitted so early. (my grp submitted at 1337hrs that day) haha... guarantee a lousy report. pity Andrew Ang for reading. lol..

anyway, here's the summary of the first 2 weeks of Term 2.

Week 1
Not much work was done on Monday since none of my project groups have delegated work on what to do. then again its usually me who delegate the work. hmm.. call me lazy. haha..

We cant do much work on Tuesday as well except for the two hour break. This is partially because we got a stupid ECM test in the evening. Stupid because i didnt study for it. ha ha ha... When questioned by gek san, carolyn, liling and sarah before CRM tutorial. They didnt believe me. I'm innocent man.. however, somebody, i forgot who, told them "you wont understand 50% of what he says, and dont trust 50% of what he says" -_-" If i remember who i will get that person for it. hahaha... CRM tutorial became a project consultation cum chit chat session. My group was supposed to finalise the survey question then but ended up talking cock. lol..

Wednesday came and gone just like that. made full use of BFI tutorial to do the BFI fieldwork assignment. same goes for ECM... ok correction.. my ECM group went to do CRM instead. haha.. which means i also did a little CRM then. Stayed back in school till 5+ to do the survey, got it printed and what nots..

anyway, that's not the most important part of wednesday. The important part comes after class on my way home. I was at Toa Payoh interchange wanting to take an aircon mercedes bus on 238 home. As I was about to board the bus i saw this clown parking at the parking lot...

What is special about this clown is that..
1. 238 is a full airconditioned fleet
2. the non-aircon bus on 238 was a former 238 bus.

Waited about 2 minute for him to arrive (yah 238's frequency is hell good at 7pm) and took it home :D

Collated survey results on Thursday. Made full use of ECM lecture to ask our lecture group to do our CRM survey. how clever of us.. lol... stayed back till 7.30pm for the guys to collate the results while the girls do some researching.

Friday kicked off to a good start with my favourite Orange Slippers 105 driver driving me to school! :D I wasnt late for lecture. bauhahahaha... project progress continued after class until 8pm. Chris didnt come because "my house corridor got people laying cement. cannot come" when matthew told us that during UCCD tutorial we guys were laughing like crazy. Not exactly an excuse but its a humourous reason of absense.

Over the weekend I got info that one of the 36 buses got its advertisement changed. Here's the bus..

Week 2
Stayed back in school on Monday till 5.30pm to continue the research and editing stuff. Now with the survey ready we're able to continue with our work. Decided not to use the library's com and thus we went to a bench to brainstorm for ideas for our recommendations. With all these in place, we have National Day to finish each of our section. What a nice way to spend National Day eh.. lolz..

National Day was on Tuesday. Stayed at home all day to rush thru the CRM craps. However, I managed to finish before the parade started. haha..

Wednesday.. ah the usual.. almost the same as the first week. left school at 6pm on that day. My group continued to do work until 2am that night.

Thursday was really a chiong day. We will stop at nothing just to get the job done.. really! MA was crap shit since Ambrose isnt around, followed by a blur blur MA tutorial which i dun really know what Andrew Low is talking. and its free time after that. We spent the entire afternoon editing and collating our information, at the same time take some time-outs as well. We're humans too you know. haha.. we made full use of the FA time until 9pm before we head home. yah Project Superstar no need to watch already. go and record the damn show la or watch it over the weekend.

We contined doing our work after Project Superstar results at 12mn. did work until 2.40am before sleeping. wheew...

Friday was project submission day. saw kelvin lz hy melissa cz jm kim yong fairus carolyn at Lab 2 of the library. machiam i know half of the people there lor.. lolz.. I thought i was early but those guys are earlier sia.. my group just merely check the appendices, content page and see whether everything was in order before we print our report for submission.

However, sadly, UCCD is due next friday. This time its BOTH the report and ppt on the same day. This translates that we need to get the report done BEFORE thursday finishes. die die die... more 9pm workdays this coming week. on top of that there's BFI to do as well. oh boy...

===============================================

With all these in, stress has become part and parcel of our life. How we handle stress is the key thing here. Sometimes it'd be good if you could take five and destress in whatever way you want. It may look or sound or feel weird to others but to yourself, its your way of destressing.

By the end of this entry I have effectively taken a 24 hours off from work. its 1745hrs now.

I have added a new song which i heard over the radio this morning. I kinda like it though although its rather an old song.

Till next time, whenever that is,

ciao!
