I didn't know it was Teacher's day on Friday last week until I went home and was wondering why there were so many presents. It feels like Christmas where my mother and I unwrapped all the presents eating some chocolates and sweets we unwrapped.

I didn't know it was the September holidays too. I didn't know that promos were coming. Seems like such a long time since I went through all these things.

Does anyone feel like going to underwater with me, some museum or even Pualu Ubin? I am suppose to go to these 3 places for my modules to do work.

I spent the whole of yesterday after lessons playing table tennis. Sigh... I feel quite regretful now. I ended up not knowing how to do my chemistry test today. I felt even more miserable when my friend said it was easy. Sometimes... I wonder whether I am doing the wrong major. Anyway, I went to play table tennis after school today again. Haha... the table tennis people are so nice. They were very patient with me and kept teaching me how to play table tennis. Tommorrow is the match. Oh dear...

Hall life is interesting. Its a really unique experience and I feel everyone should have a taste of it even if they are living in Clementi. Would really like to stay in hall next year but I really cannot see how I can accumulate enough CCA points without my grades falling. Its not like I understand anything now.

I met so many people I knew before I came to nus. See many people I met at various points of my life, even the springfield relief teachers. When I see them, I feel this instinct to go up to them and say hi and give them a big hug cos its rare to see a familiar face here. But I just walked past them without saying anything. Because things have changed now and all we have to say to each other is 'how are you and what faculty are you from?' Some memories are just better to be left as memories. Yet, I am glad that I met them even though they never see me and are not aware I saw them. I feel this unexplainable warmth in my heart.

I still am trying to find my identity in this strange new world. Yes... its still a strange new world to me even after I been here for 5.5 weeks counting orientation. I feel confused, like I have three identities, my life in nus(school), hall and home where I behave differently in all three situations. I feel such a myriad of emotions, most of the time I feel lost, sometimes, I feel that this world is such a cold place. Even though this is such a strange new place to me, it feels like home.
