april

apologies for not putting up anything over the past two months - it was never dead, just hibernating xd but yea i was busy with finals then i got lazy after coming back from japan so...yea we r here ig. and i think at the start of june i did promise myself 'okay i had a list of things i wanted to do, ive done a very selected few and there's still many more, so i shall make full use of the 10 remaining weeks of summer to do as much as possible'. and this is one of them. 

i remember april being a very stressful period. not as bad as sem 3.1 obvs because i didnt have 3 excel projects to deal with this time LOL, but definitely still hurting from some things i did in march. project week was kinda wild - i had to rush a law paper in about 4 days (which isnt the worst btw...) over the weekend prior and i somehow managed to get an A for that HAHAH i think i was just very thorough about the tariffs impact on the US and ig i gave a good balance of what the actual ruling was and my own take on how future instances of trumpism could play out internationally in the wto courts and all. 

then, for the sustainability mod somehow, through my adaptation (and a fair amount of my leader's research) of a green lease agreement, had my group winning first prize LOL and now im stuck with some vouchers for anything in south beach development HAHAHA but yea genuinely a surprise because i did not expect it to be that good to the extent that they were like 'hmm this is immediately implementable' - though i reckon they will adapt it of course but its already a very good skeleton ig. welp i will take the W anyways. and then after that i realised i had to still present two more group projects (amidst the high of it all) and was about to get to work again...then i got a call that i was being offered an internship placement? LOL i mean that tuesday was single-handedly the best day of 2025 so far amidst all the worries and almost-breakdowns and crashouts and dazed-starry-eyed moments. 

then i had to go through the supply chain management presentation (which overshot time abit) and the port focal presentation (which overshot by a LOT but we didnt care cuz our prof is half-assed about it). but in the end i think we did p okay for the latter (i think we were top 3 in both the report and the presentation so slayz) and the former was...well just steep bellcurve things...and u have to pray for finals to go well especially for someone like me who didnt class part in class at all LOL i was just so fking lazy HAHAHA too chill alr the class. 

then there was the class annual starry night but BRUH i swear softball is so dead AHAHHA there was like only 8 ppl going and then in the end we crashed aquathlon's starry night cuz the aqua gen sec was too nice HAHAHHA in the end an idiot gave me beer to chug (like one full can which i did in 10-15s while said idiot didnt finish 3/4) and i was so tipsy bcuz i had like about 1.25-1.5 bottles of soju before and i CANNOT take soju x beer for some reason it just makes me crash so i lied down on the grass and passed out LOL THEN I WOKE UP AN HOUR LATER to find out that i did crash (after doing some tiktoks while tipsy) and just went to the law commons to nap more HAHAH fk damn wasted. then after that i realised that there was someone who made softball look SO EMBARRASSING bcuz she lost her bag with snacks inside and she was legit CRASHING THE FK OUT (and digging thru trash and having ants bite her hands HAHAAHAH) cant believe i missed all that shit becuz of a stupid idiot. anyways fking funny cuz i think aquathlon wanted to zao but they stay back out of courtesy and also she went to law commons to announce it HAHAHAHAH fk damn funny lah this one legit q memorable. at least i didnt merlion so yea def plus point

then i had to rush thru like another individual assignment in 48 HOURS. guys pls fking cane me or slap me or just punch me if i do this nxt time i nearly wanted to pull an allnighter on sunday (due date was monday noon) but i was too tired so i ended up just sleeping and rushing on monday morning. then i submitted 40mins late and gave an excuse for not noticing the time was 12noon instead of 2359 AHAHHA in the end still got b+ (and b+ overall) so little diff ig...its not like my class part was good or anyth HAHAHA

and in the midst of this i nearly (very nearly) lost another close fren bcuz of smth stupid i said again. i swear when i said i was gonna be more unhinged and look out for ppl in 2025 this is NOT what i meant...i rly need to be more careful w my words ffs. had to talk things out when i realised i fked up again but thankfully it was reconcilliable so thanks (uk who u r if u read this) for ur kindness and also being willing to give me a chance to change

then after that was just full on mugging zzzz luckily only one closed book exam this sem (supply chain mgmt) so i was just studying that for the most part. was also studying w this fren and some of her frens (which i happened to know from sports camp LOL) and yea it was q fun and chill honestly. didnt have to stay back until midnight in library THANKFULLY and yea! finals was kinda weird cuz the supply chain paper was supposedly so similar to the previous year (based on the teaching assistant's remarks after i told her the paper's rough outline since i was like frens w her alr and studied w her during study wk). port focal paper was surprisingly easy and not some tricky ass stuff like the logs mgmt paper the sem prior by the same prof when the open book was so fking difficult and the law paper was...wild AHHAHA a lot of ppl left 20-30 marks blank i was just spamming the normal case answering format and also just praying that i linked the argument well

- steve, who is, once again, tired. but at least this diary is back. although it might miss out some key deets
