Peek-A-Pic: Break One Day

I just finished 2 papers which was held back to back. One was on Wednesday and another one on Thursday. Wednesday's paper was a killer and I was pretty disappointed with it. When I was doing it, I had my hopes up quite high, but after I checked back the answers, hmmm.. I don't think it's gonna be great. Eventhough it's just an elective it's considered tough for me because it's a memorizing subject and I have the worst memory. =(

Imagine that you have to memorize the petrochemical products from methane, ethane, propane, butane and aromatic rings. Not just that, still got branched out some more; the products from the products of m/e/p/b .....

If that's not enough, we still have to memorize it's applications, process.... what catalyst used, temp, pressure, .......... Hmm... So I hate all this stuffs.. And was struggling with it. I'm a slow learner and a forgetful one too.. So I tried to summarize the whole chapter and memo the general structure of the chapter and made charts on how each products are related to each other, and pasted them on the walls.



left: butane, right:propane

methane

left 2 columns are oil explorations, petroleum, crude oil.... and the last one on the right is ethane

I didn't do one for aromatic ring becos I gave up writing. =(


I'm not just disappointed because I couldn't manage to memorize from a-z, every word on every line, I was even more saddened by some other stuff which you dun need to know. lols. June, you should know what I meant. But, it's all over now. Plant was ok, but as usual, didn't have time to finish like what I've expected. Bu still I tried to do as much as possible and luckily the final paper only contributed 20%.

So, the last exam of my final semester of a university student will be on next thursday, so wish me luck. I'm still not getting used to be a soon-to-be graduate and soon-to-be working lady. Haha.. Lady?? Funneh.. No one will ever treat or look upon me as a lady. A girl maybe. If they say I'm in secondary school that is already good enough. Some even go till the extend of thinking that I'm just a primary school student. >.< Am I really that immature??

Well, nvm.. I went out with darling today cos he took a day off to clear off his leave and he is still left with erm.. 1 week I guess. And we went to watch Fast And Furious 5. It was nice but I think that there was not enough of the top speed driving scene if compared to it's previous movies. But nice oso.

And we ate Manhattan Fish Market. Finally went to eat the student price set meals. Must utilize my student card fully before it expires in another 2 weeks. LOLS. Darl so lucky, he is still having his Nottingham ID and it doesn't have an expiry date on it. =.=

I think this one is the fish one


This is mine, Seafood 101 I think

Food was ok la.. haha..

Makan time




Dessert at 50%

Brownie


Did something different to my hair.

It was not suppose to be like this. I wanted to made messy side bun but my hair wasn't long enough or my skill not good enough.

So I ended up tying a pony tail at the side and curl it a little. Thx to June, Shing Yee, Min Whu and Tat Wei, I was able to do this. If you wanna know what this means, then click here.

Hmmm, I think I should stop here now. Nite.

Sometimes we find the easiest thing in the world is so hard to do

3 papers this semester, this very last semester. And out of the 3, Petroleum seemed to be the easiest to score. And Plant the hardest. Somehow or rather, I think Petroleum would be the hardest for me. It's all about memorizing and my memory capacity is so limited. I think my brain had somewhat corroded and my brain cells are depleting. Worst of all, after doing big charts and mid maps of the general informations for each chapter, I read carefully the pass years papers and realised that, Dr. Leong loves to ask on the in between lines information. And he seldom ask bout the main production, but by productions or intermediates. My heart just skipped a bit and I felt a thousand knives had pierced through my tranquility and confidence.

And I just had one question and 1 question only, would I be able to attend my convocation in August? All I know is that I don't want to fail after all the blood and tears that I've shed for the whole 5 years of youth. I chose the wrong route I know, but my life doesn't end there. Knowing that I will have wider options in career graduating from an engineering course, I'm sure I can find a different life somewhere, and somehow. If Petroleum let me down this time, the visions I once had would be thorn and shattered. I know I'm not good enough, I'm just asking to be sufficient.
