First Day Anticlimax
Couldn't get any sleep at all. Annoying. What with tossing and turning and counting sheep of all shapes and sizes. Gave up after stopping at 682.
Found it really pointless to lug my laptop around especially when it doesn't really serve any purpose than to impress people that you have already bought one much earlier. Which is again heartwrenching discovering that the computer centres have much more enticing deals concerning Thinkpad laptops. Nevermind.
Got onto the wrong queue where matey ended up matriculating half an hour earlier than me, to cut the story short. To make things worse, the queue number system malfunctioned and I had to wait EVEN longer to matriculate, as things were done manually. Thank God I had some semblance of patience.
Met many many familiar faces; to rant; Ivan, John Khoo, Sunni, Alywin, Zheng Yu, Yanxi, some ACpeeps God knows their names, JunLin, Jerry, Hanxing, Yujie etc. They-who-matriculate-this-year. Great to see Haireez, Maly, Reeza, Johannes, Kelvin Seet, Lt. Azfar the resident undergrads again.
Nevertheless the highlights were freebies from the matriculation fair! Yes sir yes sir three bags full. Maxim and Newman and vouchers oh my! Nothing beats being mobbed my random people everytime you try taking 3steps. Better still, if they have freebies to give away. Oooo.. DBS Debit Card, here I come...
So that's that. My first day of school. Pretty uneventful eh. Tommorrow's a better day I guess. I mean today; past midnight already. I'd better think of better things to wear. I mean, my green tshirt and jeans gettup was alright, but so were the hundreds of others who wore tshirt and jeans too. Naah but I still wont wear sleeveless yet. I've laughed at too many who wore them in school today. Hasan was right.. They should get ready a jacket should they ever get laughed at. Better still a paper bag.
Yawn. Good I'm finally dozing off..
