9am GSM. The moment Professor entered the class he wanted us to do an activity. He asked us to take out a piece of paper and write down the names of ten people that comes to our mind. It may be people whom we know personally or not. My family came first three and then friends and more. Then he made us do a mindmap with "Me" in the centre and asked us to categorize the people on our list. I had "schoolmates", "close friends" and "family". Then he asked us to link all the people whom are Facebook friends with us. And it dawned on me that everyone co-existed in the same world; the virtual world. A professor from University of Michigan proved that it takes about 4.7 hops between two random strangers on Facebook, which means to say there are about 5 connections between 2 people. (example, my sisters' friend's cousin's mother's friend may be my teacher) The virtual world has become so small that it takes just 4.7 hops to find someone. It kinda got me thinking the entire class. Love this module a lot (Globalization & Social Media) because it makes us stop and think in this fast-paced society whether the development in technology and globalization is affecting us positively or negatively. Like one of the articles we were asked to read, "Is Google making us stupid?" really made me think. I have never used my brain so much in my life lol.
Anyway it was snowing pretty heavily after GSM ended! Adrial and I had fun playing with the snow like small kids hahaha. And we saw Meihwa and Yixin outside dorm! See my
Instavideo of the snow!
Okay so I went back and continued watching my K Drama! Still in love with the cast <3 Lee Min Ho, Kim Woo Bin, Choi Jin Hyuk! Until I analysed the story plot to my sister then I realised it was totally similar to Boys Over Flowers lol. The story is basically about a bunch of rich guys studying in a renowned school and then the rich guys are constantly bullying people until this one normal, average, not rich girl enters the school because of some useless reason and then all these rich guys start falling in love with her. Plot is stupid like I said, but I'm just contented seeing the guys. <3
I was multi-tasking: doing MICE too! See how I multi-task hahaha.

NGO at 3pm So god damn thankful that I didn't fail my paper 3 - analysis (professor said one student got F). I got 94!! So damn thankful. And professor gave us good news that we don't need to submit our final paper! But in exchange we need to do a PowerPoint presentation. That's nothing to us hahaha! NYP SBM students leh. Haha. What is presentation?! Haha we prefer that to a 3-5 page report, honestly speaking. After all, Singaporeans are one of the lowest UAI scores! We can act spontaneously so well to all kinds of situations! Haha :P
Okay so class ended and it was snowing again! So we played snow fight again hahaha :P See my
Instavideo!!
Then we went to the newly opened cafe Droptop! Had Gelato Waffle and Tiramisu cake. Not bad. Quite atas. Haha :D

Then we went back and then do our stuff. Reports and presentations... The final lap! Countdown 16 more days to end of fall semester!
On a side note... Received a parcel out of the blue this afternoon. Was surprised because I didn't expect that. It was a birthday gift from Emily and Shayne! To be honest this is one of the best birthday presents I've ever received (seriously) and I'm grateful that you two put so much effort in the sketchbook! And yes you two were right; I cried, I smiled while reading the sketchbook that's filled with memories of us all this while. Knowing Emily for almost 7 years and Shayne for almost 13 years, I'm more than thankful to have them. Appreciate your effort of sending my gift all the way form Singapore to Korea. Really love the nail arts stuff and the book and the masks. Can't wait to get back and see you guys soon. Love you two, Emily and Shayne. <3 thanks.
I didn't even realise my birthday was so near the corner. I mean I knew it was coming, but in actually fact I'm busy counting down to the end of November, but I didn't realise the end of November meant my birthday. 4 more days; I can't wait to turn 19 in Korea. :D
