It's been a pretty harsh semester.
1. You know about that friend of mine who tried to do something
really stupid. Suffice to say that while it's under control, it
really burnt me out pretty good. I actually went for professional
counselling after that.
2. The plagiarism saga. That took up a lot of time and effort on my
part to solve.
And one thing I learnt - the guy actually does visit sgforums. He
came across the thread in Whinehouse about my rants on the whole
saga. While he was understandably pissed at me, at the same time he
finally understood just how serious his actions were. He got pretty
dismayed at the fact that he could have gotten three other people
face serious disciplinary action because of his lack of
responsibility.
Suffice to say that I'm now at peace with him and I've deleted the
thread... but I still refuse to work with him again in the
future.
3. Missing things. My pencil case and calculator both went missing.
Each loss cost me $20 - no small change to a cash-strapped
undergrad.
4. The usual academic demands. To be frank, I coped pretty well
with my studies for much of the semester. It has only been in the
past two weeks or so that all the sh*t has been coming together.
Consider my major tasks till the end of the month:
11th: CA test with 25% weightage
12th: Prototype presentation for the Rotary Club
18th: Public exhibition for finished prototypes
21st, 23rd, 26th, 30th: Exams
I'll try to take it easy as much as I can.
