End of exams/Start of holidays

"Every ending is another beginning, just that people are not aware of it at that point in time." (adapted from Five People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom)

Alright. The exams are over. I'm fairly satisfied with my papers, but I know clearly that there are little chances of getting any A grades. I forecast I'll get B+ for all 3 modules and maybe B- for my writing module.

If that actually happens, I mean the latter part of my prediction, then I guess I'll quit the glorious University Scholars Programme. But I'll put that bad news or possibility aside for now.

Next up - the hols. So what am I to do? 3 months. A few key events - Miranda's birthday (21st - which means preparing nice gifts), physical fitness test with the army, getting my trading back on track. Seems like a job isn't too much in favour of a schedule of a person who needs to trade and want to catch up with people.

The standard celebrations (or gatherings) are in place - clubbing, drinking, lunches, dinners. There would be orientation for freshies later. And hopefully I get to go as a councillor with my friends.

And a few other hopes. One is to grow some vegetables/plants during these 3 months. Probably at my gf's place. And the second is to do some (a lot, I hope) exercise like kayaking, swimming, trekking etc.

Oh...and a trip to Thailand. That isn't quite that cheap, but hopefully is worth the money. Hia Hian, I heard, is the beach we're heading for.

More on my trading later. For now I've prepared some carrots and green beans for planting in the next few days.
