What a STRESSFUL day!

Woke up late this morning ('cos last night cannot sleep due to my 3+ hours afternoon nap).....happily brushing my teeth when suddeny something strikes me: YOU NEED AT LEAST 18MCs FOR EExxxx MODULES TO GRADUATE!

KAO!!! Tried to recall what modules i took that are under EExxxx....industrial control sys, digital signal processing, communications, fuzzy and neural sys, distributed autonomous robotics sys......NO MORE!! 3 MCs each meaning....15 MCs only!!! Jialat! This means i have to drop my microelectronics thin film module which is CNxxxx (not EExxxx) that cost me 800 points during bidding (Info for tilda and viv: NUS very smart....they wanna train their students to bid for COE, so they came up with a bidding module system....JOKERS!)

Gan jeong gan jeong......came up with a few plans:
Plan A: Dun care! Just drop thin film module and show hand for advanced control
Plan B: If adv control too expensive (2800+ points for the past few rounds), then take power electronics with ah pig (but the exam is on the same day as another paper.....i don't want....SOB)
Plan C: If power electronics too expensive, then take analog electronics alone (but it has project....i don't want....SOB)
Plan D: Go to undergraduate office or ECE office and request for appeal
Plan E: Knock down the prof's office and hug his leg.

As a demure girl, I decided to take plan A first. If die die plan A dun work, then plan B, plan C. Plan E will come before plan D 'cos i trust the profs more the the staff.....sigh....

Rushed to sch so that I can use the super fast network to do bidding.

Ah pig ah.....i already count the module for you to see liao....really no enough and i oso called up suzanne to ask her, she oso said it's based on breadth and depth modules oso....the thing is ah....she should go for call centre training ah....either her info not very well conveyed or my understanding got prob. You know I told her my problem to double confirm the 19MCs thingy and how to appeal, you know what's the first thing she told me "I can't help you! I can't possibly give you more points to bid right?" DUH.....as if i expect her to gimme more points....it's really playing the piano to a cow leh.... Think I spent about half an hour to get everything straight and understood-ed....KAO!

And ah pig...dun qi me with the points k...i really have 0 points liao...at least it can't convert to cash lah...so i really dun care. Just very pissed by my carelessness and how she entertained me when i'm super gan jeong...
