Yeah, it felt like it passed so quickly. I guess compared to the last quarter, we were learning SO MUCH more that I barely had the time to catch up with my reviews when we had to jump right into the next topic. But, nonetheless, it was fun and I felt like I was actually progressing in terms of the language. It was quite challenging, as I guess I've figured out that during the exams, as much as I would like to make up my own stuff with the grammar we've learnt, the way for me to get good grades is to basically remember on a rough basis the previous work we've done and use most of that stuff during the speaking and writing tests as that has more grammar points and will get us the grade.
Nonetheless, I am happy and absolutely proud to say that I passed Level 2 with almost rainbow colors (though it most definitely can be better, with A LOT LESS silly mistakes, my biggest downfall SIGH)
On a new note though, the reason why I've been pre-occupied and not blogging is also because I've been home searching.
a really cool room of one of the houses I visited
Yes, I've spent a good 2 full weeks (while studying for midterms and very quickly finals) looking for a place, and by golly, that process takes SO LONG. I would look at soooo many places in one day, literally spend 4 hours with agents looking at places, walking and looking at potential places only to get shown places that are WAY out of budget and not worth it at all. And I'm not just talking 10,20 bucks more. This is 200 bucks more. Sigh, hard selling it man.
On some days, when I had dance practice that ends at 3.30,
it was out the door again knocking on real estate agent's doors for places.

With the help of another friend, we finally found a place! It was at the price range we were looking for and is much much closer to both our schools (major plus! it's a short walk to the stations but it's about the same really)
And so.....
The packing is almost complete, as we move out completely tomorrow.
I've been gradually packing to kinda get ahead as I know I'm a procrastinator, and the last thing I want is to have a last minute scramble. So I've already started the day of dance rehearsals (I'm in Dance Club and we were performing for the closing ceremony).

We'd danced and rehearsed so many times that by the time I was done moving that day I was dead tired.

if only you could see the hills we had to brave and the oceans of sweat..

And so we've come to the last league of the moving process.
We (my roommate Sun & I) officially move in tomorrow.
Feeling: Exhausted & Stoked.
