Two years. Two years as a part-time post grad student, working and studying at the same time. For two years I hunkered down, bit the bullet and made the arduous journey of completing my studies and finally getting my Master's degree from NUS. Two long years. Sacrifices were made, Something had to give. Now that... Continue Reading →
Four months till graduation… and I am already losing steam
The road I am taking, it can be a lonely one. Just four months till graduation, and I am already losing steam. The final hurdle, one more module and a project thesis and that is all there is to it to complete my studies. But somehow, I have lost all motivation to really push myself... Continue Reading →

Having gone through a similar seminar and exhibition that showcases UK Universities, it was another fruitful day learning about the postgraduate courses on offer from several Australian Universities. I now have a range of... Continue Reading →

Final Year in School

Everything is travelling at lightspeed and I am still playing catch up. First semester, first week has come and gone and these are the modules that I... Continue Reading →

Exam Results!!!
So how did I fare this semester?Outstanding! This semester's results blew my expectations away! I did not expect getting 3A, much less an A+ within the 3As that I have gotten. My most optimisitic expectations were at least 2A and all Bs with not Cs at the very least, but this time, I managed to... Continue Reading →

Post Exam Syndrome
YATTA!!! Its finally over!!!! The last of the last exam paper is done!!! Business wasnt so bad. Though there were a lot of things to write.

The Waiting Game…
Second paper, Drug Development was okay i guess. Despite my lack of concentration in studying 2 days prior, i think i could have done better if not for the fact that i have to wait for a very important message from one of my lecturers. Damn that multiscale approach question was a tough nut to... Continue Reading →
