3rd paper down!

So we had Cognitive Psychology paper today.. As always, I'm not actually satisfied with my performance because I know I could've studied more. There were things which I did read but did not go into detail, did not make an extra effort to remember those - and those were required for the essays, sigh. I actually thought of MC-ing the paper again. But I really do not want to repeat another semester of this. 

I have nothing to say about HP308 - Psychology in the Workplace. Worst paper ever. Too much declarative knowledge was required, something I've never been good with. Too many blanks, too much smoking. I'm prepared to get a fail grade for this. I'd rather see a fail than a C grade, actually. At least I can still retake the paper if I fail it. 

Fundamentals of Communication Studies. An elective. Out of the whole lot, that was the easiest to study for. I could complete one chapter in half the time it takes (or less) to complete a psychology chapter. Unfortunately, I didn't put enough effort into remembering the content in detail.. and I was not able to give my best for the essays :( I forgot stuff during the paper, and really thought it was such a waste. There goes my A grade. I feel so doomed this semester. 

Two more papers next week, accounting on Monday, and Abnormal Psych on Wednesday. I haven't lost my drive yet; the need to achieve and save whatever's left of my GPA is too strong. The reading room is becoming emptier by the day, there's no competition for tables anymore, boooo. Less incentive to come here.

Eileen has ended all her papers so I'm here without any friends. I've taken over her table as the one I'm used to is way too cold.. being right under the air-con. I always end up being an ice cube. Ok so the problem is, the girl who sits beside this table - the girl who gets takeaways to eat here - SHE SIGHS A LOT. LIKE, A LOT, LOUD AND HEAVY SIGHS. Yes, that is annoying too. Sorry I need to bitch a bit. I mean yeah I know she's frustrated, I feel her, but she sighs ALL THE TIME oh gosh. I'm going to change table tomorrow so I don't have to sit beside her and get pissed off.

That aside.. I wore new clothes today! :) Here's my outfit for the 3rd paper.

Top: Butterfly Flutter Lace Sleeves Top in Navy
Bottom: Basic Skater Skirt in Black
Both items from Hollyhoque

Well, what's new? Most of my clothes are from Hollyhoque anyway. Their stuff fit me best, and I'm so glad to have the same body size as the owner. Same for top, bottom, even shoe size :D Of course the owner will manufacture stuff that are suitable for her, right? Added incentive cos' I know I'll always be able to fit into HH's clothes :)

These cost me $47 in total. I really love lace and flutter sleeves so the design of this top has a thumbs up from me. Didn't get it the first time they launched this, so I felt I had to get it this time. However, I feel that the material used is a little too thin :( It doesn't look like it can last long! I'll have to look around for a similar top with lace sleeves since I like this combination so much! Definitely have to hand-wash this. 

The skirt is near-perfect! Been wanting to get a skater skirt in black like this so that I can wear it to work. Other blogshops either had it too short, or they didn't have black. The thing about skater skirts is, they flare. If they're too short, the skirt would definitely expose whatever's underneath it. What's good about HH's, as seen above, is that the length isn't too short :) BUT this is made of Korean lycra, which is a little to thin for my liking. It doesn't seem to be as lasting as the normal lycra. 

Oh well. Not exactly fully satisfied, but just hope I won't be disappointed!

My absent-mindedness caused me to leave my thumbdrive in the hall's computer room. It contains VERY IMPORTANT STUFF in there like JCRC elections documents and meeting minutes from the 10th JCRC. And my notes which I took hours and hours to type. All these aren't saved in my hard disk. They aren't private, but they are really important :( It's not in the computer room, neither is it in the hall office. I really hope whoever picked it up returns it to the hall office. I've been returning lost items so please let the good karma come to me, just once more! Though I don't really believe in karma.

I just need my thumbdrive back :(
