What I hate about writing cheat sheets

1) The fear of putting not enough information down on the a4 double-sided piece of paper. the word 'fear' is specifically used here. (ok, the fear of losing out, i.e. kiasuism)

Situation 1:

Me: Oh my, i actually forgot to put that equation hidden in the corner of the page under that picture at font size 6 down! Damn! The same equation which prof *** didn't say is important!

random person 1: Haha. Too bad. I've written in font size 1 so i can put everything down. Now look I have my ultra high magnification magnifying glass with me so i can see everything!

2) the feeling that you had put too much information down. Like the random person 1 above, it means that your cheat sheet is barely readable and most likely will be of no use when panic strucks and renders you blind.

3) when everything is completed, and at the last minute, then you realise something should be inside.

Situation 2:
random person 2: let's compare cheat sheets!
random person 2: you mean u didn't put derivation of the equation #10902901 in?? it is absolutely important and will come out!!
Me: Noooooooooooooo! *hurries to squeeze a small spot out to insert said derivation

4) because of (3), a small empty space is left out just for emergencies. However, it is never used and your cheat sheet now looks ugly

5) A perfectionist will aim to seek a balance between aesthetics and information loading. The constant dilemma on whether to squeeze into that particular small space for another equation or to let it be and use another line.

6) Time spent writing: 10%. Time spent reading up: 50%. Time spent writing this entry, msn, fb-ing, lying on bed wondering why the sky is not red: 40%

7) After the test, you realised you hadn't refer to the cheat sheet even once.

Something to say

Short Term Goals are gooooood.

Today I've decided to just finish my 2102 webcast.
And Omg, i can even fall asleep for the webcast.

Bravo to my lecturer who speaks like a burst-fire gun.

Since July..

i've realised several things:

I like people who takes a stand on everything. Although they will often(or always) complain, whine, bitch, but however they have their own bloody ideas to say what's right and not. Even though if they may be wrong, even if they know themselves that they will offend some people, at least they voice out their opinions. That to me is very important. Definitely better than people who keep everyone in suspense about what they think, what they feel. Those who dare to love and dare to hate, and dare to voice out their thoughts.

People should mean what they say. Yeah full stop. I mean why must people back out at the last second, unless they are sick. Plan your damn timetables if you can't remember all the meetings. zzzzz

Appreciate people!
Realised that I suck at this.

School is horrible. With un-understandable lectures, un-doable tutorials and assignments, time is freaking running out.

I like ice cream. Chocolate flavoured. I like banana too.

ok i kinda lost my thoughts as i was writing this, so tschuss!

Camp Again

Woohoo..

It's another camp again. One that had spent much much much effort into. The weeks that I've gone to school for, the 100's of emails sent and countless sms/calls taken. Not to mention dealing with difficult people but best of all, meeting many many more interesting people!! Hopefully the preparation spent will be very very fruitful!

Ok i digress again. 6 Days 5 Nights of Camp. HUAT AR!
