Part B Examination Results - The One Time I Can Confidently Show Off Like This!

Image
My results for my final Law Part B exams were emailed to me at 12:20pm today. It was the most amazing thing ever to not only see all the "pass" words, but that one longer word staring back at me, that amazing "distinction". It's the most amazing thing for me because I never thought I could ever get a distinction for a Law exam. I was always happy enough with passing and doing adequately well. THANK YOU GOD FOR THIS: I think now is the EASIEST time to say this: It's DEFINITELY the year of the Lord's favour!!!:D

Last Lecture Ever

At 1pm today, my last lecture as a Law Student ended. Now begins about 3 weeks of a study break before the Part B exams begin on 28 November. 17 weeks of Part B classes have really passed by super quickly! Although the first half of it felt like it was passing by really slowly. Once the middle portion of it was over, it just kept speeding up, until, I suddenly find myself here, at November. At my last lecture ever as a student. If I ever attend another lecture, it'll be in the capacity of a "working adult". Thank You God for bringing me through the past 17 weeks. It was really great getting to attend classes and hang out regularly with my friends who graduated with me from University of Nottingham. LET THE MAJOR PANIC-MODE STUDYING BEGIN.

New day, New week

A new week has begun and it really is time to buckle down and start studying. But before that, let me show you two random photos from school. Firstly, a photo of the bags belonging to Angie and myself: I recently received this brown Longchamp bag (the one on the right) from my sister as a belated graduation present. I've been carrying it to school quite regularly now because it is so big and can store so much stuff. As for the second photo, while my camera was out, and while we were waiting to enter the auditorium for our Criminal Law lecture after lunch time, I asked my 4 friends to entertain me by letting me take a photo of them: John Teng didn't cooperate though! Anyway, I really thank God for great classmates like them. I'm going to miss studying and hanging out with them when we all start work.

The Long Weekend

Friday, 10 Sep Before I say anything else, let me say this: HAPPY BIRTHDAY JIEJIE!! :) Besides wishing my sister happy birthday when I woke up in the morning, I went to McDonald's for breakfast, then watched "Up" back at home, as my brother had bought the DVD. Then I played Mario Kart Wii until about 3pm before walking out to McDonald's to get a McFlurry. Then it was back home for more Mario Kart Wii before I stopped to read a little bit before dinner. At about 8:15pm, John Teng drove by to pick me up to go to the Jumbo Seafood Restaurant at the indoor stadium. We were going to meet Gordon, Antonio and Jon Cheong there for dinner. Here is a photo of us wearing the aprons that would protect us from 'flying crab sauce', we were all ready to attack the crabs: Besides the chilli and pepper crabs, we had veal and toufu. And despite each small 'man tou' costing $0.50 a piece, we ordered loads of it because it was just too yummy when dipped into the chilli cr...

Enjoying home

On Monday, I met the Wan family for dinner! It was really nice spending time with them over Japanese food:) They also gave me a grrrreat birthday present, because it was really more than I asked for. Wei Chuen asked me to make a "birthday present request" and I asked for a Moshi iPouch, except that I couldn't decide between getting the blue or the black one. Being practical, black would be the best choice. On the other hand, the blue was so sweet and not as common as the black pouch, except it would get dirty really quickly. I actually decided to stay practical and told him I'll have the black one, even though I really like the blue too. And to my surprise, he got me BOTH colours! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! I'm now using the blue one, and I'm always so amazed at its ability to clean the screen of my phone so easily... Yesterday, I stayed home the entire day, struggling with my readings for my Mental Health Law essay. For lunch, my brother got Pizza Hut delivery! We...

Last week of Term 2

Image
In one school year, there are 2 semesters, which is further split into 3 terms. I am now in the last week of the 2nd term of the 2nd semester of my 3rd year in Nottingham - how time has flown by! Anyway, before I start to update on random stuff, I've an announcement to make... I'M GOING BACK TO SINGAPORE THIS FRIDAY! WHOO!:) Initially, I thought I would keep it as low-profile as possible and not announce it to everyone I see online, but I realised that when I go to church on Sunday, everyone would see me eventually. I would also probably have to explain over and over again why I am back in Singapore for 3 weeks. So, let me put the reason here for the few LSBC people who read this blog:- I am going home because... I just want to go home. No good/valid/very important reason. My trip back will be a 'working holiday', because I want and/or need to finish both my essays when I'm back in Singapore. I also want to spend time with my family. And, I think I will be happier ...
