the LAST day

So that’s it! Tomorrow I am leaving Delft, leaving Netherlands! I think I will miss this place a lot, it’s such a peaceful and quiet town. The Dutch are nice people too. Sigh, I am feeling quite sad now. I can’t believe that exchange ended. But I am not going home! I feel like going back to Singapore already. It’s been too long and all the travelling is tiring. There’s a final month of travelling to survive!

For the past few hours I was packing my luggage and I realised that I was really stupid to not ask my parents bring back the tennis racket, sleeping bag and 2 cloaks. Even dumber I asked my sis to bring more jackets! And the weather just got really warm. Damn! I am going to donate some items away.

And there’s still the heliport assignment to complete by tomorrow! I need to finish it before 12 so I can go to the library to print out Italy stuff and get back before 2pm to rearrange my luggage. All the stuff is almost in but I feel like repacking it. Think I should be done with all the packing by 6. The bus is at 10pm so I should have some time to rest. The luggage is so heavy now!

I think I just wrote out the above to make sure I remember that I have no time left! And its 4am now… =/

exams over, exchange over..

Haiz… I am sad!!!! I think I am going to flunk another paper!!!! SHiT. Today is the last day going to TU. Even sadder.Took some pictures in the library. Nice library ^^

But exams are now officially over. Ahh, there’s still the heliport assignment to clear! I wanted to do it today, but went to Oostpoort instead. IAMSAD. Shit. Haiz. I don’t want to retake ANOTHER subject back in NTU!!! =[

everyone is getting restless!

This syndrome is spreading to everyone in the house! Now that the bike is sold and the house is getting rented out, there is basically nothing left to do except but to take the last paper, pack and go! Ahhh sad.

Gone next Sunday!

OMG I can’t believe exchange is ending soon! I feel sad =[ The last paper is on the 25th and I’ll be leaving for London on the 28th. I feel that I hardly explored Delft!

But soon it’ll be times of good fun in Budapest, Vienna, Prague, Italy and Spain! =D

all the work!

Just came back from Paris and the heavy workload of this quarter continues to drown me. It’s very suffocating! There are so many things to be done and many of them are so difficult!

Shall list them down:

1. Electronics (due for presentation next Tues but still clueless about the subject)

2. Optimization (any time is ok but have to get it done before my 1st paper! very difficult, spent a long time thinking over it just now, demoralising. Shall look at it again on Saturday if time permits.)

3. Heliport (any time is ok to submit but there are 3 parts in total and only the 1st part is done. The 2nd part of the assignment was just announced today! And it seems impossible to do but we aim to complete it by this weekend… I hope.)

4. Lab Report (aims to finish it tomorrow after the lab session)

5. Twiki for airworthiness (seemingly almost done, just waiting for the prof to review it, hopefully he says it’s good then this can finally be striken off the list!)

6. FYP shit.

7. Need to find a cure for my Parisian rashes. -.- It’s extremely disturbing. I hate it.

8. Need to REALLY start studying for aerody, thermo and vibrations. Vibrations I shall do on Sunday if possible.

But Paris was really awesome.

Protected: it’s finally over.

exams n stuff

2 papers down 3 to go! Totally screwed up the first one. SIGH. Only hope that flight dynamics will pass smoothly. If I flunk this one, I will have to retake in ntu and I don’t want to! ARGH. And I can’t believe this year’s Tokyo Girls Collection have come n gone. I still remember last year around this period I was crazy over okada. Now I just want to pass my exams. sigh

spring is coming soon!

It’s March and spring is coming soon! Recently when I cycle to school I can see flowers blooming! It’s quite magical to see the flowers appearing from what used to be just grass occasionally covered in snow.

This was taken in school. It’s so beautiful! Plus that day the weather was really great.

And recently our food have been improving. Yesterday the chicken looked like this!

Today pj made the tea leaf egg thingy.. Hahahaha how to translate? Exams are coming =/ After exams ade parv and I are going to Luxembourg. Where’s that? It’s a tiny country next to Netherlands. Why are we going there? Cos there ain’t anywhere better to go and I have no idea why we aren’t going Belgium. Hahaha. Hope it’ll be fun. It seems like a hiking place to me. And in end April we are going to UK and Greece!!!!!!!!! YAYYYYYY!!!!!!!! Booked all the tickets already! Can’t wait!

less than 1 month to exams!

I cut my hair yesterday! The stylist was great! She really communicated very well with me to ensure that she got what I wanted. It was the first time that I was so pleased with what I saw. So I’ll go back again in a few months. Just before I leave Netherlands.

There’s a lecture later and it’s raining now! I dread cycling in the rain.

JLPT + randomness

I passed my JLPT 4! Quite happy! My sis just msned me the results, got 380/400! When I am back in Singapore, I must continue studying the language!

These past few days I have been travelling around Netherlands quite a bit. Rotterdam, Amsterdam and Den Haag. Because guat sim came! Finally took pictures of the Erasmus Bridge in Rotterdam. I like it!

We spent an entire day in Amsterdam and it was really fun! Or at least I thought so. Walked around the city and visited the Anne Frank House, Dam Square, Madame Tussaud’s, Sex Museum and the Red Light District at night. Anne Frank House turned out to be quite nice, considering that I didn’t even know who she was when I stood in the queue for the tickets.

We had lunch in the museum, the ambiance was great, nice and spacious with a good view of the outside.

Amsterdam is very commercialized and full of tourists! We had to look out for locals when trying to ask for directions. It’s an extremely busy city as compared to the others that I went. Normally on weekdays most cities are pretty quiet but Amsterdam is so crowded and full of activity. But the canals are really pretty, I kind of liked Amsterdam.

The red light district was quite noisy and rowdy the day we went due to some soccer match. The pubs there were airing it and those teenagers walked around shouting dunno what. The prostitutes really just stood at the windows scantily clad, some were quite plus sized as well. Actually, nothing much other than that. Madame Tussaud’s was super fun! We took pictures with so many famous people! I bought the photo taken with Obama! Hm, we are all so short!

But my favourite is still the one with Nicole Kidman! Cos she’s just so pretty! I will definitely go back to Amsterdam. I really want to visit the van Gogh Museum!

Den Haag was cold today. We wanted to go to the Peace Palace but it required an advanced booking to get in and we were late anyway. So we went to the mini Holland place. It was really kind of cool! The detail and moving figures. Summer will be the best time to visit this place cos just now it was too cold!

On our way back we talked to a nice Dutch guy and he was telling us that in the past when he studied in TU he used to cycle to Scheveningen, the nice beach near Den Haag during spring/summer. We should do that too cos he made he sound so fun! Just chilling out at the beach after school sounds fun right?

And.. my new bag! I love it! It’s so nice!
