Wake up!
Wow, how time flies. It's already March into the new year! In other words, I haven't edited my blog in a loooong time!Anyway, two and a half months of the semester have already gone by. After a period of relaxation, my stress level is amping up again with not one but 3 papers due, one a research project, one research proposal and one commentary paper. V. long, long and short. Whee, can't wait. I'm also bummed because after going to the trouble to collect 191 hard-won survey responses, I find out that 59 of them haven't been done properly. I'll have to collect replacement data tomorrow. Look out NUS, Elaine's here to take up 10 minutes of your time! Pretty please!
If I sound a bit psychotic, do pardon me, I tend to get that way when I'm stressed. Sigh. Also, after waiting more than a week, I finally got my hostel room.. and it's so late in the semester I'm not sure it's worth the bother to move in. Anyway, here are my pros and cons:
Pros:
- Independent living
- Time and place to immerse myself in my projects
- Save travelling time
- Convenient place on campus to park and rest for the next 4 weeks of school, and maybe during the exams too.
- Time on my own schedule, not other people's...
Cons:
- Only 4 weeks left to the term. Officially, there's 7 weeks till the end of exams, but I'm not obliged to spend the last 3 weeks at school
- Have to set up a room and unpack stuff
- Will it be productive?
- I'll miss home-cooked food. Heh.
- Can't help my parents out with things. On the flip side, I won't be bothered by my parents!
I'm getting really annoyed at my inability to make decisions in a decently short period of time. I keep considering, considering considering. Hmm. Guess I can move in, try it out and see how it goes...

Hey Elaine! It's so YOU to write that way..haha. Anyway i've pros and cons if i were in your situation.
Pros:
-Save travelling time if it's significant
-Save money as food is cheaper(and better) there
Cons:
-Environment might be too noisy to concentrate on studying
-LAN point may not be working
With all this in view, it's risky to move there unless you know that the cons are unfounded.
