The Long and Short of it.
Wednesday, May 13, 2009
I reckon today's the longest I've stayed in the campus this past semester. Honestly, it felt alright.. Not too harrowing. (maybe it's because I only had 1 tute and the rest of the time was spent on psyc experiment and lunch with jamie.. then a long time in REID library to get references..) Ended on a good note, upon collection of my Psyc report. All the hard work paid off!
Oh oh.. and poster sales again! That made my day too. Stocking up on my black and white collection of legendary celebrities. Am so going to frame it up when I get back and stick it on the walls leading up to my room!
The psyc experiment was the irony of my life. Kay, basically, all psyc students have to participate in experiments, which are created by postgrad students doing their PHD, to earn credits. And the one I took part in focuses on...
MEMORY!
Da Da Dang...!!! (in Phineas and Ferb's dad way, when he was replaying the 'Fossils!' recording over and over again)
Seriously, I think I contributed mainly to the lower range of the results. Anyone who knows me knows that Deb is synonymous with slow, blur and forgetful. Seriously, if you look my name up in the thesaurus, I swear...
So anyway, I was so stressed when I was recalling the stuff that I had to be assured by the 'examiner/experimenter'
Oh, don't worry about it.. experiments are meant to be difficult.
Okay, if he said so.. I'm not going to fight it. But I had the feeling that he was thinking..
Why the heck is this girl so slow in subtracting backwards by threes? Isn't it basic math?
(The math part is part of the experiment.. like to distract the participant from remembering the alphabets.. aye)
Hello.. another meaning of Deb is.. CMI (Cannot Make It.. for Mommy's benefit) in Mathematic.. or anything with numbers for that matter. So combining memory and math (M&M.. heh), is a lose-lose sitch.
So anyway... I have good news!
I'M COMING BACK IN 36 MORE DAYS!
Exams ends on 15th.. am going to pack and shop a bit before flying back on a midnight flight on the 17th.. and ARRIVING AT 6.45AM ON 18TH!
EXCITING!
I know, what a totally ulu hour.. But but.. I just cannot wait. And I can sleep on my flight, so I won't be wasting anytime to enjoy my family and friends!
Yays..!
Realize that I sound unnecessary high.. But one should understand how excited I am. *Beams*
P.S. I wanna go UC Berkley for exchange! Shall find out more about it tomorrow. *Beams Beams*
