A Week Before School

I am feeling a little not here and not there and the moment, as in I am sometimes left kinda bored waiting for school to start, yet at the same time I don't really want school to start. Strange.

Last few days have gone by slacking, and accompanying my gf. Was also involved in the bidding war, and am glad things are going fine so far. Actually spent more points on a module this semester than advertising (which was expensive) last semester, but I so dearly wanted that module, so its worth it. Now I have to wait for round 2A to complete my timetable. I have always spoken of how we have to know how to go about the system in NUS, and the same applies for the CORS system. The bidding phase is always important, as it kinda sets the tone for how the semester will be like. But many a times, being outbidded, and the number of points splurged always deter us from modules we want to take. Same thing for me this time, I got badly outbidded for the exposures I would want to clear as I no longer have the freshmen protection. At first I was very worried, but I soon realised another way around it, and that method (which is prolly going to work) is not only get me my module, but also save me about 600 points! Yup again, its simply all about understandig and working your way around the system.

SEP confirmation is taking way too long, and I really wanna know if I get it. I sooo wanna go SEP, but if for some reason I am not given the opportunity, then oh well.

Something funny happened yesterday when I was at plaza singapore macs with my gf. As we were feeling tired walking around, we decided to rest at macs. However, we felt bad not ordering anything, so I went to order this new red bean pie they had. My gf and I love red bean, so I thought it was worth trying. The packaging of the red bean pie was black and red, as compared to the normal green and red for the apple pie. However, when I took a bite, it was apple pie inside. Initially I thought it was because the red bean was in the apple pie, but the picture at the counter said otherwise. So I went to get it changed, and the manager kinda changed it FOC. But guess what, eventhough she gave me a pie in the correct packaging again, it was still apple pie! Haha, this time my gf went to do the exchange, but again, we got back the correct package pie, but wrongly filled pie. We kinda gave up, but we really wanted to try the red bean pie, so for the third time, we went to look for an exchange. This time, the manager felt real bad, and refunded us for whatever we had, and also went to make a new red bean pie, ensuring it was really red bean inside. Haha, I must say the manager there was real nice, and did well to make up for the mistakes. But my gf and I were saying, she offered to refund all that was in our receipt, and it was a pity we didn't order any meals, or we would have gotten everything for free!
