Screw the bloody paper today. Anyway, my long awaited moment arrived~ Phew... the exams are finally over and I shall keep my fingers crossed that nothing bad would happen on me.... I want to do my FYP this year one....
I'm gonna play and havoc these few days before attachment starts but seems like I can't afford to do so with my packed schedule as always. I'm gonna extract my wisdom teeth tomorrow plus I got to rush down for spectacles recycling.
If we cannot finish by tomorrow, we would have another round on Thursday=( .
Friday is AC-CI meeting, though I can don't go, but it's like my only free day to slack a bit and quickly stock up some formal wear for clinic. Saturday I got Jap Class. Sunday I got rendezvous with GMX and frenz. Monday is ITP~!!!!!
OMG, this shows that I literally have no rest at all with events one after another.... swee la~ Really no holidays lol.....
But, on the side note, I am happy I am posted to SPOC @ SP and not west coast. I am happy that I will be pairing up with Janice for Clinic. I am Happy that SPOC hours are shorter than optical shops. =D

Final Year Project balloting today @ 9am. We are to form groups of 4 members and we have a total of 24 projects for 24 teams of four per group.
After the balloting, it was Binocular Vision test. Woohoo~! I cleared the last test today... and now all I have to bother about is exams. =D I have 3 examinable modules this semester but all are so "contented" as in loads of information and contents to memorise.
Slacked a little after school today to pamper myself a little before I start to work hard for examinations. Chatted on the phone about what FYP topic to choose and I am happy with my group. I am contented. Seriously. Happy too. I dunno what to say. Because I know I won't be chionging alone.... my group is gonna chiong chiong chiong~!
Finally had time to blog after so long.... haha... oh yea by wed, we've got to hand up our balloting form for the FYP. Then may god bless me and my members not to repeat anything or else our team wouldn't be a full team anymore... it's so scary... and so sad... so stressful when you see slowly your classmates aren't with you the next academic year or semester. So scary to see the whole course and class slowly shrinking in size. Your jaw will drop and you'll gasp. That's my thought for the moment when we were told during the balloting that those who didn't progress to 3rd year would not do FYP next year with the rest and will join the next batch.
It's just so scary to be unable to partner with people whom you can work with, whom you're so buddy-buddy with and ended up joining the next batch of fresh faces you don't know at all or don't even know if they can work with you even. It makes me so jittery and scared now with exams nearing. I don't want to foward any modules seriously. Looking at my GPA its sucky enough despite my hardwork. Haiz....
I need some unwinding. Valentine's Day is gonna be an ordinary day.... Mugging for exams....

OMG... I'm so overwhelmed with nervousness today. Not only myself, but the rest of the class are whining and complaining about today. We're squeezed dry, real dry today. Our brain juice are depleted by the end of the day having 3 tests in a row continously without a break. 8 to 10am we have 2 ocular pathology test.... a slide test and a written test and from 10am to about 1pm, we have clinical optometry II practical test. Whatever I've memorised didn't come out on the spot due to nervousness.
Guess what? At Anna Yeo's component... I blundered super badly. When demonstrating my confrontation this is what happened....
CP: Look at my nose
After a few seconds....
CP: Wait~ Can you take off your glasses. Okay, look at my nose again, can you see my nose? Is any part of my face missing or blur?
Again after a few seconds....
CP: Wait~ can you please cover one of your eye?
-__-" I'm dead~!
Next story continues when she asks me about what is the normal value of FACT... I forgot is based on the graph and I pondered and stuck there for half a minute and said... " I forgot"
Next she ask me some Colour Vision test and when she ask me for the normal values of City Uni test I stuck again. WTH, I anyhow bombed.... I said inability to read plates 7 to 10 fails the passing criteria. Till now I still dunno the answer. OMG....
She asked me why is FACT better than Pelli-Robson... My only answer was because FACT only need to tell orientation of the lines and pello robson is alphabets, those who dunno ABC can do FACT. Sounds make a little sense but it was a stupid answer out of my brain at that kan chiong point of time.
Ting Ting the bell sounded and off I left the room with worries, dissappointment and some sort of relief that it's finally over and headed to FoodCourt 2 and started discussing about our practical test with the rest of the classmates while we had lunch together.
It was a traumatising day for everyone and a super tired one because we're all burning midnight oil studying hard for it and there we are gonna score really really bad for today's tests be it pathology or clinical optometry.
We're all so drained with tests everyday continuosly without any study week right till exams.... Sometimes I am bewildered and amazed by our strength and perseverence to carry on the ordeals and tough times like this. I think by the end of 3 years in optometry, our head would have increased in circumference and size by a few inches from the baseline.
