Marketing Marathon!!!

Down to SMU to study with the uni peeps.
Before that we had a mini window shopping spree. There were some bazaar going on at the concourse.
Somehow, we wasted time searching for an empty room at School of Accountancy block. We spent like almost 20 mins walking around SMU looking for empty seats/rooms and we only got seats after that 20 mins.
Jeane was telling me SMU damn cool. They have Watsons, Dental Clinic, OCBC Office, etc. I told her NYP has Giodano, Cheers and McDonald's. HAHA!
So, we studied till about 915pm.
E went to meet her boyfriend. Jeane and Simon went back to the west. F and myself headed back to the East. She was craving for prata and I was craving for mee rebus.
Took a bus down to tampines 201 coffeeshop. In the end, we both din managed to satisfy our cravings. tsk tsk tsk!

Decided to study till the last bus home. So, we went over to the Mac at Tampines CC.
We got sooo engrossed in our marketing textbook till we lost track of the time.
Wanted to head down to Airport when we got chased out of the CC's Mac. But sadly, the last bus to airport has ended.
Continued to study for another chapter instead. And and AND, out of a sudden F and myself were feeling damn urgent and we needed a toilet badly but too bad, the toilet at the CC was closed. So, we had no choice but to walk ALL THE WAY TO CENTURY SQUARE's Mac.
Thank goodness we had my ipod to accompany us. We were singing like nobody's business, walking in the middle of the road at 145AM!
The walk with her was great!(I sound SUPER les here)
When we reached there, we realised the 24 hrs Mac is under renovation due to some fire that took place few days ago.
And because we needed the toilet SUPER badly, we couldn't think of anywhere else to go. And the next nearest toilet we could think of is changi airport!

And so, we hailed a cab after much considerations.
F told the taxi uncle we had only 10 bucks and she asked if 10 bucks was enough. The uncle was soooo kind. He said we can just pay him 10 bucks!
But after we board the cab, the both of us felt damn guilty because the taxi uncle looks old and tired and sleepy. We asked how much he earns a night, he said he don't drive every night. He works like 2-3 times a week and everytime he drives, he'll only earn about $60-$80.
Both our hearts sank after hearing. Seriously, we felt damn bad and we told him we'll pay him the exact amount when we reach T2.
The total fare was $10.80! We wanted to pay him the full amount but the uncle only took our 10 bucks. And before we alight, he told us to study hard!!
I FELT DAMN GUILTY LOR!

So anyways, we reached T2 at around 230AM! The moment we got there, we rushed into the toilet! lols.
Decided to study at Macs because we din want to waste our 5 bucks just to use the toilet.

To prove that we are REALLY studying

And the both of us are sooooo broke that we shared a nuggets student meal.

Supper at 3AM and terrible eyebags!! :(

Continued writing notes for marketing. We set a target to finish all chapters by today because we want to start on accounting!
And so, we really mugged and wrote out all the necessary points from the textbook!! IF only E was there, she would have finished writing by now too. (sorry E, din call u because it was a last min thing and if we ask u to travel down to airport in the middle of the night, I think u'll prolly scold us mad)

Surprisingly, I wasn't feeling really sleepy at all. But alot of times, I wanted to just pack up and head home. Then again, if its not because of Miss F who gave me the motivation to continue, I'll prolly still be stucked at chapter 13? and this girl here tried ways to make me stay awake throughout. :)

By 9am+, we were feeling quite lethargic already. All because of our very dry contact lens. And throughout the night, we kept putting eye drops!! Can you imagine,
my bottle of eye drops is almost finishing already?? In order for us to stay awake, we bought ourselves the $2 sausage McMuffin meal. We needed caffein badly!!!

another pic to prove that we're still in the airport at 9AM!!!

The Communication Process

Finally, at around 2pm++ we let a sigh of relieve!
The 24 hours of non-stop writing has come to an end! [E, I believe you can do it!]

Our shagged face after 24 hours of torment. E, we did it. SO CAN YOU! :)

This is the FIRST time I stayed up for 24-hours just to do notes.
I remembered, during my poly days, the latest I'll stay up is till 5AM.
Oh my gosh! I can't believe I spent a day with F.

Okie, time to sleep. I'll prolly wake up at 7pm tomorrow. HAH!
