School reopening soon- nearing the end of the holidays

It is the tedious yet anxious period of modules bidding again. Yet one of the most difficult part of the process is to choose what modules to bid. You not only have to consider your interest in it, but also the bidding history of the particular module and often you have to hold yourself back becuase you of your ridiculously little bidding points in the general account. All my 3 core modules were bidded successfully with 1 point each, the minimum =/ Yet I still cannot fathon why they make us go through this process when the quota for these core modules are always the same or exceed the amount of students bidding. First, they have to ensure that all of us get the compulsory cores, at the same time, they want us to go through the bidding process. I suppose the most ridiculous part is that our points are allocated in the ratio 3:1. Which means that only 25% of our bidding points are allocated for bidding competitions across faculties. I can only say one word, RIDICULOUS or SIAO. Cos as nobody should never not know and this comes with the eating milk experience that across faculty means more competition, and VERY harsh conditions. And zzzz, to add frost to the snow, every faculty's distribution of bidding points between program and general account is differnt. And my building faculty happen to distribute our points in such a way that all of us can only bid for the least popular modules =.= SUCKS.

And on top of all those things on top, I still have to bid and anyway for this semester, I kind of lost my interest in bidding. Normally I will do a lot of homework before bidding, but now, haiz... Besides the harsh bidding process, I lost my confidence that I had for the lastsemester because of my results, I think. The 2 electives which I chose, well, I only got a B and a B-. Which were kind of a disappointment. I expected more for translation. I think the others must have been too good. So I ended up at the other part of the bell curve. As for GIS. Oh how much I loved it and yet it returned my love with such soreness! Both the advanced levels are level 3 modules, so I doubt I will be taking them, kind of a pity BUT as I think of it now, I think it is a backup. In case I got outbid at the other modules, I will take the advanced level of GIS. Since I obviously fulfill the prerequisite (though not too WELL). So for this round of bidding, at least my mentality is, since I have not much zeal, I will fulfill the university requirements first, and opt for plain boring Singapore Studies modules and GEM modules(even GEMs are a challenge for my dismally little bidding points).

Lets talk about something more interesting then. I suppose it is quite worth a mention, lols. Eugene and I went to Yuki Yaki yesterday for dinner. We went there for the 3rd or dunno 2nd time for the consecutive days before we finnally can literally walk in and get a seat. The other days, the restaurant was so packed that the queue was too long to get in. But yesterday we were really mighty, cos I think we ate from 6.45pm to 9.45pm. But I have to admit, I stopped for 1hour in between but he plunged on. Uber =x We had the tepanyaki ice cream though the ice cream is not so nice to eat, it is quite nice to make =x I was so bloated I couldnt move or walk properly after that. Now even after a night's sleep, I still feel extremely full. My stomach is still so BIG!!!! Dunno why I suggested going in the first place >.<
