It has been 10 days since..

I last pumped petrol.

I remember 01 July, went to Hougang first thing in the morning, then Ellington Square, and then airport, before heading back home. Headed to Bishan for cell group in the evening, and pumped a full tank of petrol at Lornie Road.

That full tank lasted me for the past 10 days, and is still going to last me until tomorrow.

I think it speaks a lot for itself.
I haven’t been going out much, neither have I been going for trainings.
There was no cell group meeting last week.

So really, the entire week was just me travelling to school and back.

That’s funny, because if I haven’t been going out, I don’t know where has all my money gone to.

SOC368: 3 assignments, 2 tests, and 1 final exam
SOC349: 2 presentations, 1 midterm report, 1 response paper, 1 research project, and 1 final exam.

SOC368
First assignment due 21 July: I am already 80% done with it, I shall complete it by tomorrow.
Second assignment due 01 Aug: I briefly started on it, I already have a rough idea of what I want to do.
Third assignment due 08 Aug: I also have a rough idea of what I want to do.

SOC349:
Just got informed today that we only have to do 1 presentation instead of 2, however the research project is quite intensive.
Anyway, with the help of Chris, our presentation slides are briefly done. We shall discuss and get the whole thing over by next week.

I have never felt so accomplished,
Maybe it’s because I can’t wait to end this semester.

My love-hate relationship with Summer 2.

Love it because:
I am taking 2 modules to keep myself occupied.
Both modules are relatively easy to score as long as I put in effort.

Hate it because:
I have 3 morning classes a week, and I have classes everyday from Monday to Friday.
Both modules have quite a massive workload and tons of readings to finish every week.

SOC368: 3 assignments, 2 tests, and 1 final exam
SOC349: 2 presentations, 1 midterm report, 1 response paper, 1 research project, and 1 final exam.

Whatever the case, hopefully I can see myself breezing through Summer 2 like how I did in Summer 1.

Final exam for SOC368: 11 August
Final exam for SOC349: 12 August
And then my midnight flight on the 13 August.

So my massive idea is really coming to pass.

Never in my whole life had I thought of travelling so far away from home, but it’s really happening now.

Looking at what I could do.. Driving in LA, touring Hollywood, and looking through various factory outlet stores.

And most likely gonna 2 extra days by myself in NYC too.
Why not? Afterall I am already travelling all the way to the other side of the world.
Would be a good experience to try out the subway and walk through NYC, exploring Times Square, Central Park, and the Empire State Building by myself.
