Sweet September.
Ahhh. Blogger is back to normal. Sweet. Haha.

Life has been whoa. Haha. I'm usually in school the entire day, reaching home only about 8 plus. It's a major bummer but I really can't imagine bathing a toilet that doesn't belong to me (or rather, Daddy's). Thank goodness for friends like Sya and Mia. They are like what my university life depends on. Thank you sooo much!
And then, I have made friends with Mia's Friends, Xing Zhen, Fiona and Sajana. The last 3 are in my French class. When class ends, Sajana and I will head home together. No more boring rides home! (At least for half the journey, anyway.) (:

On Thursday, I was asking Sajana about her course (Business). There are times when I ask myself what the heck I am gonna do with my Math degree. Did I choose Math just because I wanted the easy way out? But as I do my tutorials (And gawd! People do NOT lie when they say university Math is tough.), I know that I'm doing something that I really enjoy. My degree won't fetch me the income that say Accounting or Acturial Science would (and that I want. Badly. Haha.), but I know that I'm gonna be happy. Like if I took some Business course, I will probably be cursing myself for 3 years of my life, and then wishing myself dead for the rest of my life.
Still, sometimes I wonder if I were too meek to go out of my comfort zone.

On Thursday too, I was walking towards Cafe Express (or something close to that) to get my lovely banana muffin when I noticed that newspapers from the stand had flown onto the floor. And it was such a HUGE mess. I wanted to pick it up badly. But it was gonna be so weird. Everyone would be staring. So I sat at the cafe, facing the dumb mess and did my work. 20 minutes into my Discrete Math, one of the stands dropped with a loud thud. And gawd. I had never itched so much in my life to pick things up (Probably influence from Starbucks. Haha.) . I walked right up to the stand and then, turned back abruptly and went back to my seat. For the next half an hour, I studied DM whilst taking sneak peaks at the stands, hoping that someone would do something about the mess (The plan was to go join the person. So that I wouldn't have to do it ALONE.). Anyway, no one did. There were people who actually went to the stands, picked up their copies of newspapers and walked away. There were those who just stared at the mess. There were PROFESSORS who just walked past. I mean, I expect them to be some sort of a role model... They are still educators, aren't they?
Just before I left, I plucked up my courage and tidied up the stands.
GAWD. Like why the hell do I need courage for something like that? Where's the Charlene who doesn't give a flying feck about what others think of her?
I complain a lot less about university though. Settling in, I suppose. Which is good. Very good. I'm gonna be there for the next 3 years and 11 months.
Still, there's a need for some reflection, don't you think? It's just picking up stuff. Sigh.

Tests are coming. Mid-terms are less than a month away. I need some organization in my academic life.
Ta ta for now.
