So sickening... hard to bid for General Elective Modules (GEM). Wasted about 200 points when try to bid for GEK1509 in the past few rounds... and this round (3B), I decided to be 'smarter' by putting bids in the less popular subjects like SSS1207, where number of bidders are far lesser than the vacancies... I used 1 points to get that modules... =.='

Luckily I didn't put all my remaining points (about 350) for the GEK1002 Japanese Studies. Or else my points will be totally wasted as the 3B Bidding Result shows that 600 is the minimum bid point...

Oh well, I guess I'll just go for the GEK1509 although the module description says that:

Located within one of the global centres of biodiversity, Singapore is endowed
with a rich natural heritage that is impacted by expanding urbanisation.
Development poses a great challenge to nature conservation and Singapore is an
excellent model to study how a balance can be achieved. Students will be
introduced to the country?s natural heritage, its historical, scientific and
potential economic value. You will have the opportunity to explore important
habitats, and to think critically about the issues of sustainable development
and the nation?s responsibility to posterity and to regional and international
conventions related to biodiversity conservation. Students are expected to
undertake the field trips on their own and at their own time within the
semester; and will be encouraged to 'self-learn'. A special website with
information on the places to visit and their significance serves as a
semi-interactive IT-resource. Suggested trails and what can be observed appear
on the website. The students' independence and experiential learning aspects are
strongly encouraged

Tomorrow there is a Hall Bash at The Butter Factory. Still not sure want to go or not... the entrance fee is S$10. But then, I think I'll go the coming Dinner & Dance (DND) lar... better... but the entrance fee is S$55... swt... see how first...

Today's lectures still ok in the morning. But the Mathematics I in the afternoon was bloody sien... the lecturer like only read out the notes, which we can download from the Interactive Virtual Learning Environment (IVLE) website... most people actually sleep in the class, don't worry, I did try my best to stay awake >.< Though I stayed awake, but then I have no idea what-the-hack the lecturer was talking about. My seniors 'advice' me to watch the webcast of other classes in IVLE to 'have better understanding'... ;) Guess this how technology suppose to be 'utilized'...

*~*~*~*

Iter-Block Game (IBG) is coming soon. So before dinner just now, my block (A Block) had a Touchball training session at 1800. Then after the Hall Meeting (starts at 2100), we have Frisbee training session again... then after Frisbee, me and another few more friends plan to go for Road Race training (jogging, easy way to say)... wah... going to be damn tired 2nite... but luckily tomorrow can wake up late a bit since my lecture starts at 1000. Then, afternoon still can continue sleep since there is no class. ^_^ Hehe...

Guess thats all... need to go Hall Meeting now... sien~~~ =p haha...
