What a week

After the madness of 3 back to back quizzes, I can finally take a breather before embarking on a study marathon to catch up on most of my modules which have been back-breaking and mind-boggling during the 1 week study break before I get sucker-punched by more abstract and difficult concepts. If I can get past this semester, I can get past anything for the next 3 semesters. One thing I do not understand is the planning management of the faculty when it comes to year 3 subjects. Some of my friends who would be doing I.A next semester have to do 6 freaking subjects this semester and these subjects are no joke and it's difficult to cope with 6 core modules plus electives for those who want a 20 plus AU semester. I hope the school will consider dropping a few modules so that students can spread out their subjects especially for those doing I.A.

Headline of the day: Mourinho got sacked apparently by Roman as they couldn't get along well. This reminds me of the Axl Rose and Slash saga as both men refuse to compromise on their beliefs and rather part than depart from their beliefs. Though Mr Mourinho has always been arrogant, I love his pre-match, post match commetns and during match antics as he adds colour to EPL and revive some interest in Chelsea who were doing badly at one point of time after Gullit's departure. I wish him success in his future endeavours and hope he returns to management with arch-rivals Spurs to spark the intense rivalry or perhaps manage England and teach the Man U boys a lesson...Woooohh..

Another issue which has been troubling me or rather making my mind occupied is women. I feel that the men of our generation are falling prey to women whose power is unlimited as she has the final say in matters pertaining to sex. It's a known fact that men need women for psychological, emotional and sexual needs and most women use this to their full advantage and most guys will give in to everything just to get their final third of the package. Just look at the number of guys carrying their girlfriends' handbags and becoming like more like Mr LA galaxy instead of Eric Bana. It's time that I influence these men to pick up the Godfather and empower them with self-respect before they lose that last bit.I do not blame women to use their sex appeal to their maximun advantage to get what they want but men should know about this but I guess being men, they will rather let their big brother than than their brain dictate them although they know about this.

I have been treating the Godfather book as my sleeping material and can't seem to let go of it.The more I read it, the more difficult to let go of it. I think I need to go for anti-obsessive counselling session.

A random post

I just finished one of the toughest subjects I'm taking this semester, Steel quiz and I finally realised why seniors and my batch mates asked me to go for CSP's class as the quiz was almost a piece of cake and I'm glad that I made the right choice in changing to his class. I was such a nervous wreck before the quiz and couldn't focus and get my thoughts back on track but after the quiz, I just felt so relieved and made me realise that I have to work triple hard for this subject which I'm putting off due to the level of difficulty of the concepts.

This semester is akin to my team Arsenal's season where it's one of the toughest semesters to date with difficult subjects and my semester can either make or break if I don't focus enough and time is running short and I have only 7 weeks max to make this semester worthwhile and the thoughts of my 1.2 semester is still fresh as I do not want to go through another repeat.

I'm currently hooked onto Don't you cry by Guns and Roses, one of my favourite songs in Primary school and can't seem to get it off my head at the moment as I keep replaying the track. Arghhh..

Disappointed

I'm disappointed with a few problems in the world currently. The first one would be Guns N Roses, my first foray into heavy metal group, my one and only heavy metal group which I loved and recently rekindled my love for that group after getting hold of their live in Tokyo concert and it brought back fresh memories of their cult songs. However, the one word to describe them will be self-destruction as they couldn't handle their fame well and sought solace in drugs and alcohol. The front man, Axl Rose started to place importance in himself after he realised that he has to share the limelight with his band mates especially SLASH, the lead gitarist who in my eyes is GOD when it comes to playing guitar sometimes stole the show from Axl.

I guess that didnt sit well with Axl and he started to dismiss almost his entire band group including SLASH and the great breakup of the 90s begun. I guess human being human beings will let their arrogance dominate themselves and impair their judgement. Another issue will be a certain club in NTU where democracy should not be practised as the winner of the elections was not the better candidate or rather they had the support of their friends. This is one prime example of the failure of democracy where the best candidate failed to win on merit and lost out on votes. That's life, I guess.
