Obligation

Obligation can be a troublesome thing sometimes. You see, today was the perfect day to pon CSC. It was raining, cooling, just nice for a sleep, RECAS ended late, the comp lab was locked because teacher not here etc. Yet, I found my brain dragging my feet to the IT activity room. In there were some J1s (not more than 5 I think) and mostly J2s. They were supposedly doing micromouse although I saw bridge games. I wanted to go home, but something just told me to stay. Then, after like about 10 mins, the teacher finally came with the keys to the comp lab and we went there. Then, it was downhill all the way. Since pangwei was not here to teach programming while people like willy were at odac, it was just like stoning in front of the comp for me. For the first time ever, I find myself looking at the clock and wanting it to strike 5 in a csc training. I started to question myself, what is the point of me joining csc in the first place? Was it that I was generally interested in programming? I am afraid I saw signs of my interest in algo programming slipping last year. Probably failure to qualify for NOI made it worse. Then, what else can I do in csc? Micromouse? There was a reason why I left mmouse alone last year. Multimedia? Jon Chua can eclipse me any time, hands down. Is there really no place in csc for me? I am beginning to think so with every training, but yet an obligation just seem to be dragging me to burn those 3 hours every wednesday. Perhaps I should just find somewhere in csc where i can fit in, but it seems to be nowhere now. Why do I feel the obligation? I do not know. Should I quit csc? I am seriously thinking about it. I am really confused. Probably an advice or 2 might help, but I am still just stuck in limbo.

Anyway onto other happier stuff. First, today was the 1st blue bloods meeting, a supposedly non-council house comm in MR. Not bad, played a bit of ice breakers (what else but a toned down version of wacko). Then, we broke up into smaller groups to discuss ideas for MR. There were some interesting ideas, like an MR day, an exclusive pass for MR people to cut queues in the canteen for a certain day etc. Then, at the end, shawn chua suggested that all of us should wear like neon blue shoelaces on 1 shoe. He was asked why not navy blue instead. In his words, "We need shoelaces that scream at people." I can't imagine wearing neon blue shoelaces on 1 shoe. That's... freaky to say the least.

In recas, just found out tt this sat's nus challenge shield is like testing on everything, not only on current affairs. since there's an indiv rnd, it looks like wally, hq and me are going to go home early on sat. wish us luck.

Zzz. PW teacher is like some pro dota player. "Wicked sick!". To be more precise, wicked and sick. We have got to submit our mock Preliminary Ideas on Thursday, thereby giving us just 2 days to complete it. Somemore, some people in my class got like cca training till 8, 9 everyday, so really pity them.

My class seemed to have a newfound craze for GC games. People are playing tetris and dodgeball, esp CQ. He has a newfound enthusiasm to beat my high score in tetris of 10248. His current highest is 10245. He was like T_T
