It is just the fourth day that I got my contact lenses and I almost misplaced one of the lens. You see, I thought I was late for school since it was close to 7.20AM and I will usually leave my house at about 7.30AM. Knowing that I still had to ensure that everything in my bag and that I had to make my bed, I still went to put on my contact lenses. But hurriedly of course. So the lens went into the right eye but it did not for the left. Well, initially I thought it went in, but then to my horror it didn't. I was damn scared lah. Because the lens could either one, drop onto the floor or two, it went under my eyelid. And since I could not find the lens of the floor, I presumed it went under my eyelid so practically the whole day I tried to get it off my eyelid. But turns out, it was on the floor ==" Yes, go ahead and laugh.
Lesson learnt : Never ever put on your contact lenses when you are in a hurry because you never know what would happen.
On a separate note, I really do not understand why the J1s are mugging so hard. Come on, take your time to adapt into the JC system and do your tutorials slowly. Some of the J1s are complaining that JC life is tough. Well, I have to agree with that because when I first came in, I could not cope as well. It takes time because you start to blend in into the JC culture. And PW have not started yet. Wait till you become a J2 and you will fully understand what stress is. Point is, J1s take a chill pill and take things slowly :D
Oh. We had a NUS admission talk just now and gosh, the fee for getting into a Science course is about $6.3k and Medicine is a shocking $18k. I guess I should start working doubly triply hard now and get a scholarship so I do not have to burden my parents because I know they are facing enough problems already and I do not want to add to their burden. So studying hard and getting a scholarship to pay for my fees would be something I can do.
And I ♥ Biology more and more.
