That is a really long two months break. Well almost anyway.

Things are pretty...normal now? I can't really tell since everything felt confusing to me at this point. Oh yeah, my finals for this semester starts in 3 days. Not really feeling confident but my midterm marks should make up for all the possible losses.

I have been pretty angry at certain things lately, such as a friend betraying my expectations. You know how people preferred to form groups with people they know? Well, not for me anyways. I'll go as far as to say that the better the friendship, the more i try to avoid forming a team.

When i do form a team with people i know, i set my standards for them based on what i already know about them. If he/she is someone i trusts a lot, i'll be handing more work to them.

It didn't work out this time for whatever the reasons i can think of. It was actually pretty ironic because i joined this team to reduce responsibility on my part, that i can focus more on my FYP. Nope. Still ended up doing most of it.

I'll be honest and admit. they did do their work. They just failed the expectations i have for them...i could be too harsh or strict but for people i actually know, i think this is fine.

Had a chance at presentation too. I felt that i was below par when i was talking. Looking back at the recorded presentation i don't think i've done too bad. At least, not as bad as i felt.

The problem is always presenting to a non-interested audience. If i can't sense any interest from the audience, i can't even start to force myself to put in effort in presenting.

Oh well, i should sleep soon. Recently i've been only able to sleep at 2am late into the night. I need to stop that before the night of the exams.

TTFN~

 Day 2...but i will be writing about yesterday instead. I set off early in the morning at 8am towards Tokyo station from my hotel. It was a good 20 minutes walk and with decent, cooling weather as well. I found out that opposite my building is a Konami building (although, later in the day when i return i would find that the building houses their Esports studio and school. I managed to get a Welcome Suica card at the Information Cafe of Tokyo station after a good 10 minutes of looking at the directory. The process of getting the card was simple as the staff was able to communicate in English. After i have gotten the pass, i started to look for Shinkansen ticketing machines. Because i was leaving in a short while, all of the reserved seats are already occupied and there was not much of a choice here. The plus of a non-reserved Shinkansen ticket is that you are free to board the non-reserved cabins anytime, as the ticket lasts for 4 days. I arrived at the platform to mad crowding. The...

 Holy RA it's already near the end of April of 2025. Since the last post i've made a second booking to Japan, been there and returned. The visit this time was less of a rush but at the same time, i spent more time relaxing (idling) in the hotel. Originally i've planned annual visits in October of each year but i kind of felt like going again. So i made a booking towards the end of January. Unfortunately, the timing is not really good this time as the weather was pretty dark and gloomy throughout the trip. The Sun only showed up at the last 2 days of the trip. --- This time, i've visited Shizuoka again for its sushi. Same store. Same taste. I've also went to Enoshima and had "Enoshima Don", a seafood egg rice. I've mistaken "Yurantei" for the "Uomitei" that i wanted to visit. Nonetheless, the food is good. I'll visit someday again. Also, fulfilled my dream of taking the Sunrise Express, visiting Izumo and the famed Izumo Taisha (...

 ...with how tired i was in Japan daily, it was easy to leave out writing. For example, i'm already back in Singapore. Following the previous post, i made my way to Ueno Park, Senso-ji in Asakusa, Shikansen down to Shizuoka and visited Sunpu Castle, took a river cruise around Sumidagawa with Tokyo Cruise and ended a full day trip spending money in Akihabara buying old consoles. I'll think about whether i want to go into the details. The last actual day, Friday 18 Oct, was kind of a waste as i was "kicked out" of the hotel early and spent the day in the Airport instead. The storage was full so i couldn't leave my luggage in the airport and go somewhere else. I also can only check it in only 3 hours before the actual flight. It's a good trip overall, even with all the downtime. I am already looking forward to returning next year. I am also going to go for a Business class seat again next year.
