The Journey So Far

So it's been a while since the last update... yes I know I've been a bad blogger for being lazy... Anyways, now that college has started for two weeks now, I'm slowly adjusting to life in a school environment again. I'm glad that I went to the orientation camp before school started. Because of that I got to know a lot of people whom I wouldn't get to befriend with otherwise due to my slightly introvert personality. So far, the stress of school hasn't hit me as hard as I thought it would, but maybe it's just because there are no tests yet. I think I really need to start studying more though, otherwise I will be super stressed when tests actually come... But at the same time, I want to do so many other activities like sports and clubs... Tough choice... I guess that's the downside of having such a free learning environment in college... You have to decide everything for yourself, which is both good and bad in some way.




To sum up what I have learned so far in college...


1. At NTU, if you ride a bike, chances are that you crash into other people; if you don't ride a bike, chances are that someone else crashes into you.


2. Get to know the upperclassmen well, they can help you with a lot of school stuff.


3. The best way to quickly make friends is to get involved in social activities.


4. Don't believe the seemingly welcoming introduction of selective music groups (such as saying oh you don't have to be super good to get in) because they are SELECTIVE for a reason... They are trying to SOUND welcoming just so you might have some interest, and then once you try out you realize oh crap this is insane.


5. Patrols at the riverside park can be nice and ignore the fact that you are having a BBQ party in a restricted area so long as you clean up after yourselves.


6. Dance choreography is among some of the hardest things to memorize, maybe even more difficult than memorizing the textbook?!!




Okay, that's it for now. Hopefully I'll blog more regularly in the future. =)
