OMG. It has been 3 months since I last blogged and that just proves how pack my schedule is.. It's not really hectic in the sense that a lot of different things is happening, it is just packed as my daily routine is packed very very tightly. Teaching 16 classes now, and the modules I'm taking in school are like suddenly super heavy. Last sem I also had 5 mods (one must understand that this mods per sem thing is really subjective because our sem is only 3 months). So 5 mods is the maximum that you can take, and being a double major, it's a must to take 5 mods every sem (not complaining...) The way is gauge is that last sem I had more time to sleep... this sem.. I'm sacrificing so much midnight time to complete my work. Let's take a brief look at my daily schedule. (which I haven't updated you guys on since the last time I blogged was Jan, before this sem started)

School begins at 8:30pm, and it lasts till 5pm or 2pm. After which, I have dance class at approx 7pm. However, the problem is the distance. So, I spend 1.5 hours travelling in the jam during peak hour to my studio, grab something light, set up for class and poof 3 classes I go teaching, all the way till 10pm. However, class NEVER ends on time. So class ends at 10:30pm, at sembawang. Once again, I take a 1.5 hour transport home and reach home a little after 12. Go home to bathe, and head down to rivervale plaza for round 2 of competing my school work that is due the next day (because as you can see, I have totally no time to do my work inbetween the day, yes I fully use my travelling time i.e. take out laptop on mrt and bus and type). The next day, 8:30am starts again WHEE! I have 8:30am class everyday. So to continue with my story, I finish studying at about 2:30am, sleep at 3am, and wake up at 6:30am again to travel 1.5 hours to school :))

So if you wonder why am I so shag, this is the reason why.

Oh yes, she put herself into this. Yep I did, not regretting, just saying that I'm literally using 20 hours of my day every day YAY!

And it's humanly possible to cope, and I wanna give acknowledgement to myself for still managing this far with an average grade of B- to A. My goal through school is probably just not to get any C, even if it's lots of B i guess I'm okay :b

During the weekends, I teach 7 classes on saturday and 4 classes on sunday. After which I go dating on some rare occasions, i.e. having simple dinner, watch movie. I think I still have some life eh?

Of course, I have off-days! I'm not teaching on wednesday and thursday. Wednesday is reserved for Dreamwerkz training and its just so coincidental that whenever DWZ have a break, i'll have a night exam :)) And thursday is open class day where I take classes to improve myself as a dancer and instructor. YAY, other than my mental fatigue, my body is definitely feeling this 6-7 days of back- breaking dancing in a week! Hence, I freaking love my noob message machine for the feet :)) It's noob but it's better than nothing. A little relief is everything.

Also, University of Buffalo goes by consistent assessment. Hence, every week theres quizzes, tests and exams~ I'm glad that my sem is ending in a month's time! Then off I fly to melbourne (during my exam break). Fly back one day before my paper, finish my finals. Then fly to taiwan again. Can't wait! Yes, splurging but maybe I deserve it? Maybe.. I work hard, I earn money, I pay fees, I study hard, I do ok in school, I wanna go travelling even if it brings my savings to 0. YAY
