hahaha at least i got one of two. let me tell you that the bidding for the singapore studies module was really crazy. i think the minimum bid was 300. i put 230! thats already a lot to me now. i couldn't have outbidded that anyway. but it was really frustrating from 12pm-1pm because the minimum bid points kept increasing like no one's business so we kept going so how so how wnat to continue bidding or not? (i know those who aren't in nus probably won't know what i'm talking about but you will, soon enough) so we considered taking some other module, but this is where it's the most frustrating, either the timetable or exam date clashes with the modules already allocated. so now i have to go through the whole trouble or searching for an OKAY module to take, not a WOW THAT LOOKS INTERESTING one. i don't understand, what's so good about this system? imagine, i have to go through (hopefully) 7 more such biddings. woahhh. oh but when i chalk up enough points, i'll be one of those nuts who put bid a few thousand points at one go. :P

then i escaped CORS at 2pm and went out with jolene. yay shopping! i got a laptop case and it's purplishpink. :) i think post-GSS sales beat those during GSS! we had lunch/dinner at ichiban boshi! ohh sushi! i know we just had jap food overload on sunday but jap food always look good, can't help it :)

and i bought snacks to stock up at home. prior to this there was nothing much to munch on. am eating the ritter sport cappucino now, tastes great! actually they all do. 4.20 for two at cocoa trees, go stock up too! starbursts 2 for 9.80 (the big pack)

yeah i was just thinking about this song on the train.

"i walk by faith, each step by faith, to live by faith, i put my trust in You". difficult because i don't understand why things are how they are, but i'm going to try.
