Spring~

Although the winter cold was kinda bad, spring is actually really nice. One thing you gotta learn from the gwai lou, you gotta appreciate good weather :)

On another note, Spring Break is also near, and I'm looking forward to going back to meet my mum and sis in California and juts chill out. (Also get some decent Asian food, my capacity for fries has just about reached it's limit.)

Also, in my unwavering determination to have a productive summer I am once again applying for a job. This time it's one in limnology (fresh water biology stuff), If I get it I should be hanging out at a research station beside a lake, going out to collect samples and stuff like that.

Fingers are crossing :x

U.S.A

So.. I just randomly decided to update my blog again! Good news for those that actually read what I write, all 2 of you! *Wonders if there is even two people.*

Anyways, your favorite blogger is currently studying in University of Wisconsin-Madison! How time flies. One moment you're in Malaysia waking up to teh tarik and the next you have to wear at least 3 layers of thick clothing to make sure you don't freeze to death.

Fortunately, the weather is actually already getting warmer as I am writing this. It's actually above 0 Celcius now (ZOMG!) I actually went skiing the other day. Was really fun, thinking of getting a season pass next year so I can go all the time :)

As for studies.. Personally I don't find it harder here then in Malaysia. In Malaysia, the lecturers always say what a big deal it is that they don't "spoon feed" you in America, blah blah blah, but what that really means is that you just have to take notes in class. The exams are IMO, easier, BUT the grade requirements are higher, requiring 90+ for an A. So I find it about the same I guess, with an extra emphasis on homeworks (which I hate) taking up a big portion of the grade.

So anyways, will update again when I want to. Which could be like 2 years for now. byes
