November. Two weeks to exams. It's the mugging season in NTU again.
"Mugging"? Doesn't it mean "an assault or threat of violence upon a person, especially with intent to rob"? Well, it seems that the creativity of the people here gave it a new meaning: to study intensely before exam. Some googling showed that a more correct term should be "mugging up". Oh well.
Anyway, I haven't gone into exam study mode yet. Still slacking around, disturbing those who are studying... until I myself can't stand my slackness. Compared to previous years, it seems that time flies faster this semester. Too many things going on at the same time. I have been slow in warming up for this semester.
I found myself making fun of people that study in their free time, i.e. muggers, "Get a life, man!" Ironically, perhaps, when it comes to stress, I am one of the most stressed out persons around, mostly because of putting things off to the last minute. Is it because I can't work without some stress?
I think my style of studying hasn't changed much from my secondary school days. Miss out doing homeworks; do nothing related to my study most of the time; only start studying two days, or even on the night before any test.
Prioritizing and time management is one of my biggest weakness. Not only in study, but in other things as well, like being late for lunch, for class, for church... while being punctual for trivial things like gatherings, when most of the people arriving late instead...
Oops, I am late for lunch with Fuda... again....
