When my brother came with my parents to visit me at KTT about two months ago, he said that ASEAN scholars are scholars but don't look like scholars. But JPA scholars are scholars and look exactly like scholars. Scholar-looking=nerd.

-_-

Now, two months later, I'm beginning to think there's some truth in that. Of course, there are exceptions (like me! hahaha:P), well there actually quite a lot of exceptions, but the atmosphere is thick with nerdifying-ness. Lol. Everyone is studying like their exam is a week, or even a day away. The library is always occupied, the classrooms and lecture halls are never ever empty, even at night.

Don't have to worry for the sense of urgency to come and grab you to study. Its right there, haunting, luring, oppressing, supressing, depressing. Haha, so drama. Lol.

Back about two weeks ago, I was still feeling super lazy, and even when I tried studying I couldn't concentrate. I tied it down to two main reasons:
1) The tempting computer at the library. Haha obsession with how many hits my 'bang bang' counter is not good. Not good at all.
2) Distracting friends. Not to blame them, but the juiciest converations and stories just seem to pop out when you have to study. Lol.

Only two solutions I could think of:
1) Send a virus to all the computers, -which I have no idea how. :(
2) Terminate all my friends (muahahaha), -but 'thou shalt not murder', so that's impossible too. Which then leaves me with no solutions.

But when you think of the academic report that will be sent to your parents, and the A-s you want to get (A is 90 above!!! :S) , and the super duper hard internal papers,there's bound to be pressure. Thus, the sense of urgency has arrived, but being able to remember and understand all that I study is totally another story.

Having said all that, JPA scolars are NOT nerds (save a precious few, hehe), we still have time to jog, eat at the cafe, talk and talk and talk, go out, have other activities, plan birthdays etc etc. Thank God, if not for Him, not for CF, not for church, I'll probably have gone nuts at the pressure long ago. Haha.

Thats all for now...

Cheero, and take care!:)
