Once upon a time, I was falling in love
But now, I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart

Once upon a time, there was light in my life
But now, there's only love in the dark
There's nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

I am always in the dark..

While I finish up my brain-boggling report, I shall take the chance to report on something else, OF COURSE IT IS SOY DAMMIT.

I reached the place at 11am, and realised I don't have enough money. I trudged around in the hot sun to find an atm, which I did. ONLY TO DISCOVER IT DID NOT DISPENSE CASH. So since I didn't want to get lost inside NP just to find an atm, I travelled to shopping centre to top up, then went back. Of course, I was sweating like a pig.

I found a bathroom to change, but the whole toilet was crowded with cosplayers and totally no ventilation. People + no air +effects of walking a lot = a very hot and sweaty china. Then I found Silk and we got tickets to go in. I shall summarise rest of the day in point form.

-Hung around Hika and Sana's booth and bought some canbadges.
-Watched single category cosplay competition. First up was a straight=haired Miranda (D.Gray-man), whose answer to "what vid game character would you be?" was that there were no games in her era, and started talking about a throwing-stuff-in-bin game. Then some Fooly Cooly and Metal slug X guy, and another Saucecakes. This particular Sasuke was quite skinny, and his question was "theme song". I sang Pub & Go, of course, but he chose "Bring me to life" cos "it is emo".
-Karaoke section next, this girl sang Ayumi's "Dearest", but poor girl's tube started dropping and she kept pulling on it and going off tune, so host Tamaki-sempai was a gentleman and gave her a coat XDD (She won the competition, by the way).
-Went outside for fresh air, spotted an Austrian Succession Prussia and Chibitalia, took pictures.
-Found Jeanette, and we called Peishan
-Poor buchou got lost, even though jeanette and I stood on the table and waved hard.
-Went in for look-see, everyone bought canbadges. I bought one more.
-Found a Russia siblings print, and the russia siblings handed it out.
-I unofficially became one with jeanette. Oh, and sana's booth description read: "Afterall we'll be one with russia soon..." Yeah, so no wonder China is almost always with russia in the canbadges.
-Went to tofu cafe, saw Vicky, ate rolls.
-Went out, crashed a Hetalia cosplay group, took pictures with cosplayers.
-This prussia stole my panda under my nose. I hit her with a ladle XDD
-Posing time, first time see so many ppl shooting me, so I looked so off focus in my pictures cos I was looking at so many damn cameras without knowing which one was going off.
-Prussia steals Belgium's waffles, and while being chased, drops Gilbird, but the waffles are saved.
-Japan asks me how old am I. I answered my age and I swear everyone took a jump back. I'm too young for my own good OTL. Then again, China is forever young XDDD
-More photos with group
-Went in again to watch performance. It was beyond description,period.

Yep, it was fun being a cosplayer, heh.

First post of the New year! Pachipachipachipachi~XD

Right, tmr I will be taking my Japanese level 4 placement test, i.e. last sem's level 3 exam. I tried last last sem's exam and by golly, I am astounded by the number of words I have forgotten. Lesson learnt from last attempt is NOT to show off on the sentence structures (funny I remember sentence structures more than words themselves-the effect of constant sentence writing?). The katakana and kanji writing parts are easy as pie, the fill in the blanks are nonsense, but I can manage the verbs part. Comprehension is total RUBBISH MAN. I hope my compre isn't too difficult (then again I have 3 hrs to kill, fufufu). Compo is another piece of crap, but remember NOT TO OVERDO IT. Use simple sentence structures, after all level 3 is equal to half of what I learnt in Ikoma. Take it nice and slow.

Whether or not I get it (IMUSTIMUSTIMUST GET THIS MODULE OR MY GPA WILL NEVER RECOVER FROM THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY MY ECONS), my plan for further learning will continue, at the expense of cramming my year 2 schedule. I will start studying my higher level stuff VERY WELL during the course of my vacation, then sign up for the N4 exam (gosh I must remember that the syllabus changed) in August, spam more learning (but of course school takes priority), go for the weekend preparatory classes in October, MUG hard for school plus JLPT. Just pretend it is studying for some intense level 5 course or something.

Side missions include finding a job in the hols (a nice job with nice pay), and bringing up my gpa this sem to 3.0 to rectify the huge damage caused.

Ok must stuff in some last minute nouns now. Pon pata pon pata~
