E-learning week was fun. Except for the very traumatic tests, webcasts with white noise louder than the lecturer's voice, and many many meetings (projects, CCAs, or otherwise).

BUT.
I had so many nice meals with nice people. Hahahah. So that made me extremely happy indeed.

On Monday, I had lunch with Mark and Yihui after the English tutorial. A little bit weird, 'cause they used to be my seniors and now I'm (technically) their "senior", but it was fun 'cause I got to catch up with Yihui whom I haven't seen in ages. And we got to talk about choir and AC stuff, so yeah, that was fun.

Lunch with Fadz on Tuesday made having two term tests (including a horrifying Molecular Biology one) on that day bearable. Despite not having studied properly for it and basically flunking it... alright that's beside the point. Befriending that day also went smoothly, thanks to people I shouldn't name here in case other people read it. Yay.

I spent some time with Mom on Wednesday; had fun showing her around Science hahahah. (She thought the Medicine blocks looked kinda old compared to the Science blocks. I wonder how she tells the difference 'cause they all look the same to me.)

Breakfasted with Stanley on Thursday during the ES2007S online consultation. So when our tutor asked us to entertain ourselves, we did this over MSN though we were sitting opposite each other:

Stanley: Hey where are you now Jinghui?
Me: I'm at engin Macs. Where're you?
Stanley: Oh I'm at engin Macs too.
Me: I don't see you!
Tutor: Sorry, I'm at home. :P
Stanley: Oh really. Well, C--------, you're welcome to come to engin Macs too and pretend we don't see each other so that we can have a proper MSN consultation. I'll buy you a cup of tea.

And we were laughing as we typed that exchange. Very lame self-entertainment huh.

Macs breakfast was nice though! I don't think we exactly bitched much, but it felt good to sit down and have breakfast with a good friend.

Then Pearl, Germ, and I met up for dinner at Pizza Hut. I thought that was quite a good catch-up session, except for one scary part when we ended up talking about citation methods. Hurhur.

The most amazing thing about the whole day was that I pulled an all-nighter the night before and I was kinda awake till slightly after 0200h. Granted, I napped here and there (like on the bus), but still. Hahahahah.

So I guess they should rename e-learning week "Recess Week part 2". It was actually less stressful than recess week 'cause most of the midterms were over. Goodness.
