I am starting to see the benefits of not bidding classes with anyone I know from last sem. At first I was pretty envious of Shawn and his group of friends, bidding for the same classes, being in the same proj group and eating together everywhere they go. But it now seems to me that I get to meet more people in the process of "alienating" those I already know. Every class I go to, say 99% of the people are different. So I get to form new proj groups, get up and around to say hello to different people, instead of walking around school like a school of fish (pardon the pun) and ignoring everyone else other than my clique of friends.

True, I may end up doing proj with people I don't really like. Which is the case for my CAT. First meeting and there's already some friction with a girl. (She's just too uptight for me.) And I also admit that breaking the ice initially was undeniably awkward. However, once that ice is broken, I get to know much more people that I can get along really well with like those from my Marketing and QM group. The amazing thing is, Sheraldine and Salinah from my QM group were actually in many of the same classes that I was in last sem but we just never got to know each other until I broke off from my "clique" this sem.

And you may think, what's the point? These people will just turn out to be acquaintances after the sem is over. But no. I don't think so. In this way, I get to select those friends worth keeping and keep in contact through msn and while the rest, I can just discard easily without shame. What I meant by worth keeping is those that I can be myself with and not those that I can make use of la. I'm not so mean can!

Well so why am I talking about this now? Because I know I haven't post for light years so I thought I'll just post something more interesting than the usual ramblings of how busy I am now (which I really am! But I know you don't want to hear that.)

Okay hope that satisfied your blog reading craves. Good day!
