The thought that this semester is gonna be my last in NUS had me thinking about the things that I've come to accept as facts of life during my time there:
1) Bidding life and limb for a module on CORS, only to not get it.
2) Confusing your breadths, GEMs, UEs, REs, SS. Then worrying that you haven't completed enough of them to graduate.
3) Coming back to school on your free days.
4) Coming back to school during term break.
5) Basically, coming back to school ALL THE TIME.
6) Staying till 11pm for project meetings.
7) Buying/selling textbooks on the IVLE forum, and comparing with friends to see who got the better deal.
8) Printing notes in the com lab. Fast, efficient, and cheap. Except when there's a long queue and the person in front of you happens to be printing a book.
9) Skipping lectures. Then cursing the lecturer for not uploading webcasts.
10) The fierce drinks stall auntie who smiles at boys and scowls at the girls. But the coffee is pretty good. And she's running a monopoly.
11) Uncle Edward at the Western stall with his superhuman memory. And his very stressful "Next please!"
12) Surprise! at the fruit juice stall.
13) The kebabs that always run out. I haven't eaten kebab for 3 months!
14) Always complaining that we eat the same stuff in the Biz canteen, but never actually making the effort to walk to other canteens haha.
14) Dangerous shuttle buses, regardless of whether you're a passenger or a pedestrian.
15) Stairs. Endless, countless stairs.
16) The forever crowded CRC.
17) My stagnant CAP. And not in a good way.
18) Student discounts!! :D
So that's my non-exhaustive list. Shall add to it whenever I think of more stuff. The more I type the more I think I will miss NUS :(
Anyway here's to a successful, not so stressful, FUN last sem in school!
Say you'll stay, don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way, yeah I need to know
All about you
