It's on a Wednesday during the school mid term break and just in case anyone is confused over the theme, it's 1920s Shanghai mafia. It's not strictly a dress code but wouldn't it be fun if all the meekias turned up as a big mafioso family? Haha...

The Next Wave 2007

ok, i have to be a little shameless here to promote this upcoming concert~

The NUS Dance Ensemble is having its annual concert, The Next Wave, on the 21st and 22nd Sept at NUS University Cultural Centre (where the national day rally is held). This is the 15th year of the concert, and it promises to be the culmination of their successes thus far.

This year, the concert will feature 7 diverse items as part of its eclectic repertoire which features everything from classical Indian Dance to modern day Hip Hop. The whole concert is approximately 2 hours, with 2 intermissions of 10 and 15 minutes.

If you have never been to a dance concert before, this is a good time to start exploring into this area of the arts, as the variety of the concert ensures that you get a good mix of styles.

Tickets are priced at $12, $17 and $19, and can be purchased from
1) Sistic website http://www.sistic.com.sg/cms/events/index.html?content=1066
2) Sistic counters
3) any Dance Ensemble member (a.k.a me)
Furthermore, from now till August 25th, there's an early bird discount of 20%! (which means if you guys get the $12 tix, after the discount, it'll be about $10 only)

As some of you may know, I'm an associate member of the Dance Ensemble (DE), which is why i'm plugging this concert to you. And i must say that DE's concerts are usually of high standards, and are well received by the general public. In fact, this year's concert in March, Evocation, saw three sell-out nights! So, I urge you guys, to open up your minds to dance, and catch The Next Wave.

electives

boo peeps!

somehow i'm really tired out from school already.
maybe its just due to the damn boring and unnecessary lectures.

so i got:

western film history
history 101
public relations writing
basic media writing

881 isn't a very good movie
secret is though! though there are evident loopholes. and its irritating that the whole cinema swoons whenever jay chou speaks.

have a great weekend!!

Thursday, August 9, 2007

HE191: Principles of Economics
HG101: Linguistics [something something. God i dont even know what i signed up for but it sounded cool]
FIL250: Western Film History

whoopee.

Textbook Sales

Hi people,

From what i heard from the CI club, there'll be a used textbook sale next wednesday. That's tentative la, so just keep your eyes and ears open for more information in days to come. =)

The COM201 text is a new edition this year, but i don't think it's much of a revision. The author typically revises her book every year.

Speech and argumentation... is she still using Beebes & Beebes? That's the text we have.

If you ask me, the speech textbook actually quite fei la. The COM201 one, however, will be very useful. Because you'd probably have to swallow the whole book for the exams.

Hope this helps. ;)

Elated about Electives?

Hey all! Did everyone get their preferred electives? STARS is really a super cruel system! Anyhow, everyone suffers together, so it's not too bad. Hehe...

So what electives did everyone register for?
I got..
CPE103(10045): Foundation Mathematics
HE191(50323): Principles of Economics
HMG1(20024): German

So what did u get?

On the Orientation Talk

Hello People,
Anybody going to the orientation talk tomorrow? (today if you are reading it on FRIDAY) Lets meet at 1350HRS at station control for those taking trains k? And for those who are on wheels (i mean cars, not wheelchairs), meet you straight at the AUDI entrance(Where the hell is is anyway?) k? Hope to see some people there.

(Shannon's note: the easiest way to get to Nanyang Audi, is to walk from Canteen A. Alight at the bus stop at the foot of the only overhead bridge in NTU. Walk up to Canteen A, walk through the entire North Spine, and you'll see Nanyang Audi. Hope this helps. =)

Something tell me that it will be damn lame and boring but then again, it is good opportunities for you to:
  1. Catch up with ya OG mates/ Friends
  2. Find your way around NTU. Recce before monday's lesson
  3. Look for people in the same course to do mutual switch of subjects and Tutorial Groups with you
Besides, we can always pon if it gets too boring and go watch some nice horror show.
  • Clarence
  • Wei Xun
  • Jocelyn
  • Lindsey
  • Jac
  • Jy
  • you?

QUICK GUIDE TO NTU

aloha!

okay people, who's gg for fri's opening ceremony?

if i'm not wrong:
clarence
lyndsey
jin yong
joycelyn


whenever a list is out, pls update on ur status! yes, YOU!

joan kwang cant attend cos she has other appt alr. i've got tuition, so if u guys still have activities after 4pm (i mean, maybe you guys may pon the ceremony. hurhur) please tell me about your whereabouts.

maybe clarence u come up with a meeting place and time for everyone before the opening ceremony?


on the other hand, who's got COM204 who's got COM 205?

if im not wrong:

COM204-
(T1)
(T2)
(T3)
(T4)
(T5) Rachel, Edmund
(T6) Joycelyn

COM205-
(T1) Eileen, Ji En, Christine
(T2) Cheryl
(T3) Jin Yong, Joan Kwang (yes juicy, u're not alone)(T2)
(T4) Jac
(T5) Clarence
(T6)


pls log-in to edit this entry to input ur name ok. dont just tag the board!
and if u guys wanna change mod and tutorial group during the add/drop period, it's OBVIOUS WHICH ONE TO CHANGE TO (ahem 205, T1!!)
LOL.



anyway, after bugging ziliang and chunleen, this is what i know for CS peeps:

-upon matriculation, you'll be auto-assigned your CORE modules. cohort is divided into 2 (COM 204 and 205) and further divided into T1-T6

-you can log in to STARS PLANNER to start ur strategic planning for your schedule. you still need to take about 3 other non-core modules to fulfill AUs for 1 semester (for a well-balanced sem)
as for now, only planning is possible. and saving the plans (got space for 3 plans).

-at stars planner, you should see 13 blank columns on the left of the screen. pls rmb to input COM201 COM203 and COM204/205 as they are your core modules. after that, go pick the modules that you're interested in. and then click PLAN to generate a timetable.

-on the next page, select the timeslot that has alr been assigned to you upon matriculation for your CORE(like mine. COM205 T1 the index no is 06012) if you're okay with the allocation and u wanna keep the allocation. so click everything of your core modules first. anything that clashes with your core modules, you obviously cant take. there're diff timeslots for each modules (usually) so you can trial and error. once you get the so-called 'perfect' timetable, save it as your plan 1,2,3.

-saving the plans will save time. so during the add/drop period, its when the first-come-first-serve thing starts, you can click ADD SUBJECTS TO STARS to submit. faster. add/drop period, FYI, is from 7AUG 930am. please leave your com on thruout the night. LOL. jk.

-ziliang said not to rely on waiting list to get your desired module. no use.

-if you guys wanna switch COM204 to COM205 or vice versa, can do a mutual swop by finding someone who has been allocated the one you wanted. switch done during add/drop period too.

-there's this requirement everyone needs to fulfill throughout your 4yrs in NTU. that is to complete:
3AUs from HSS as GER
3AUs from BM as GER
9AUs from STS as GER
37AUS as UE

but dont have to really bother about that cos i think everyone sure fulfill that. just bear in mind that YOU CANT ESCAPE FROM SCIENCE.


-lappies can be purchased at the NTU IT fair @ Nanyang Auditorium from 13-17 Aug (10-5pm). available models? pls check here.

-lappies purchases require the presentation of your matriculation card. collection of matri card for CS is 6-10Aug 9-5pm @ Asian Communication Resource Centre (ACRC)
SCI, Level 1




ok cant think of anything else that may come across your mind. will add if there's more.
:)
