If you noticed, my title is usually parts of a song. They don't have anything to do with how I feel or even relevant to the post. So yea, don't jump into conclusions too fast :D
Completing Ethics exam is like a minor freedom to us. For some reason, we (including myself) felt like we were on top of the world when we submitted the paper. Believe me, writing 3 pages about Darwin's Theory is very annoying. Ardipithecus Raminus, Australopthiscus Afarensis, Australapithecus Africanus, Homo Habilis, Homo Erectus and lastly, Homo Sapiens. And I did not even consult my notes! That's how much it's ingrained in my brain. For some amazing reason, I read the brain capacity once and it was immediately tattooed in my brain. How I wished that happened for my Biology and Chemistry studying sessions.
Looking at my Chemistry test results actually broke my heart. Well, not really but realising I lost 5 marks just because I (the smart ass I am) wrote sea of delocalised free moving ions instead of electrons. Since when are ions electrons?!
However Biology was a shocker. Although our lecturer said gene therapy would not be tested, we should have known that I would come out, contributing 4 marks to the whole paper. Maybe the 'read once' thingy happened to me that day and I just wrote some random nonsense about a liposome and harmless virus. Guess what? 4 marks baby! Now, if only it'll work again in our upcoming exam. *crosses fingers*
I would definitely permit you to say "Waa, Abigail very rajin to update hor?". Well, I'm feeling rather bored and what does Abigail do when she's bored? She writes about her feelings. Not. I think maybe I just rediscovered the joys of talking about something others wouldn't understand since I'm usually very vague in my posts. It's exhilarating!
I've decided to divide my week (since it's the study leave) into 3 parts. No wait, make that 4. Day 1- Math. Day 2 and 3- Biology. Day 4 and 5- Chemistry and Day 6- Statistics. And there you have it, my study timetable. Oh dang, I forgot about English. Yes, as much of an ass I sound like now, this is the first time I will be studying for English. Ever. So, wish me luck as I read my Critical Thinking book and hopefully I don't fall asleep.

Please Don't Be in Love With Someone Else
Two posts today!
I really love the song Enchanted and Haunted. I kid you not when I say I have it on loop on my player and it will be that way until I get bored of the song.
Anyway, I just completed my MINDS proposal and cover letter. I shouldn't be complaining or anything because all I did was just cut, copy and edit from the previous samples (which I'm sure the seniors did the same thing) but to get the new list of committee members, their student ID, contact number and editing the letter head is rather frustrating. On the bright side, I have practically every one's information in my pendrive. Yes, handphone number, e-mail, student ID, IC number and programme. And with this information, I shall rule the world. Muahahaha!
On a different note, I don't have classes tomorrow BUT I still have to go to college. This is the second time I don't have class on a Friday and I have to go to college. Ah, the things we do and sacrifice for our friends and for the greater good.
Oh, and you just wasted about 3 minutes of your precious time reading this filler post.

Ps: I tried. It's up to you.
Pss: I understand why now

I Thought I Had You Figured Out
Being consistently surrounded by Taylor Swift friends *cough*freaks*cough*, I am very much influenced by them. I now have the complete Speak Now album in my laptop and I'm very much addicted to the song Back to December, Haunted (I prefer the acoustic version though) and Enchanted. The lyrics are just so qgurieqfbeqbfcjfbc!!! (speaking in gibberish because no words can actually describe how awesome the lyrics are)
Speaking of friends, my friends and I recorded a "music video", gossiped about Taylor Swift, gave each other Drag Queen names AND study Biology. No wait, we were discussing about Biology. Very enlightening indeed. I never thought genetics and gene therapy would be very interesting if not for "Humey", "Ligey" and other characters made up by another friends. Suddenly the word "probe" made more sense *sees the light*
Anyway, yesterday my laptop 'merajuk-ed'. It refused to turn on even though it worked fine the night before. So I did what any responsible adult would do. I called my dad :D He came back from work, picked up my laptop, went to get the warranty card, brought it to the repair centre and brought it back to me. All in about 3 hours or so.
Ethic Studies exam this Saturday. Wish me luck :D I may be very ethical (don't choke, it's true) but we need to know more than just being ethical but knowing about other religions, the purpose of life, where life comes from and other random questions we tend to ponder upon. Not. As much as I like learning about these things, I don't like sitting for an exam about something so subjective. I mean, isn't it up to a person's point of view? Even in Christianity, we have different schools of belief but in Ethics, we end up generalizing everything. I actually prefer to study Darwin's Theory compared to the creation of man based on different religions. Why? Simple. Darwinism is actually relatively easy to understand. Key words? Galapagos Island and finches. He basically proposed the idea that from simple organisms, they evolved to better organisms to adapt to their surroundings. It was another scientist that proposed that man evolved from apes. But somehow, Darwin is more popular that the other scientist. So popular, I don't even remember the other dude's name! That basically proves Darwin's popularity.
Finals are approaching and the library is actually quite full. Usually around this hour, it's quite deserted. But suddenly, every one's a nerd. Discussions flying around, books disappearing from the racks so quickly than the eye can catch and some random person throwing his/her notes in the air shouting "Ayeyai, me no comprendo!" Eh, wrong language. It's "Aiyoh, what does this lecturer's notes mean?!" Then there's the occasional student catching some Zs, be it head resting on the table, a makeshift bed out of chairs or even on the floor a-la homeless man. The library is now a safe haven, a refuge to soothe even the most freaked out student. I wonder if I actually meant that?
Blogging from college is actually very refreshing. Away from the sad environment of Akasial and horrible internet connection. It also gives one a new perspective. Maybe that is why my previous posts are all very dark and emo.
So, I shall leave you with a light note saying go listen to Taylor Swift's album, Speak Now and tell me your favorite song. A cookie for your thoughts :D
