mug

i'm FINALLY feeling the sense of urgency to mug hard for the upcoming exams. have been allowing myself too much slack the last few days that i haven't been achieving much. plus i'm getting easily bored from mugging due to my sub-conscious change in studying style - from reading each chapter and doing its tutorial together, to reading ALL the chapters and then doing all the tutorials and practice papers at one go. i wonder if this switch will have any adverse effect on my results.=X

the trigger of my sudden sense of urgency came from the need to edit the 20-page service ops report. i took 7 hrs of full concentration in the afternoon to complete the editing, and somehow that totally drained my energy for the day. coupled with waking up late in the morning, it resulted in a low productivity of only 2 mis chapters (the first two chapters only somemore) the entire day. felt quite bad for it, since i'm now officially left with only 4 days to finish 4 modules due to my horrible exam schedule.

didn't help that i was feeling so irritated with my specs which was giving me a headache that i switched to wearing contact lens. i dun usually wear contact lens at home lar, but somehow, it left me with no choice today.

went to school to mug ytd with bro, who totally pangseh-ed in the end which made me rather pissed the entire day. spent 1 1/2 hr photocopying finance and mis textbooks in the morning, which was the main aim of going to school actually. in the end mugged in the seminar room with dennis. seems weird that i'm mugging at home now especially since i was totally against it in the past. guess now that i can't really find mugging partners, and the fact that i'm broke and dun want to spend more money on food in school, i'd rather save on travelling time and mug at home instead. the trade-off of cos would be the wastage of time on the ultimate distractor - laptop.

ah well. time to rethink my strategy of mugging to accelerate my learning. if not, i think i'd end up unprepared for all my papers.
