American Idol season 6, new MRT line and exam updates

Ok, I know American Idol season 6 has started quite some time ago... in fact, it'll be ending in a few weeks' time. Unfortunately I haven't been following every episode but I make sure I watch Melinda Doolittle's performances on YouTube. Just wanted to share this video below with y'all... It's one of my favorite performances in AI 6. Not by Melinda Doolittle but by Lakisha Jones, who started off the season really strong but didn't improve much I guess (from the remarks I read online). So now 17-year old Jordin Sparks has overtaken her to be one of the favorites in the finals.

So I suppose most of you have read about the new Downtown MRT line that they will be building... linking Bukit Panjang LRT to the Bugis area, making a loop around Marina bay and continuing to Tampines and Expo. S'pore Gov says will be completed in 2018...

Grabbed this file from someone last time... it shows the possible planned MRT stations and lines in the future (if you guys are interested to see). If you take note of the station numbers you'll realise there are gaps in numbers, like between Yew Tee (NS5) and Kranji(NS7). This picture below shows all those "missing MRT stations":

Exam updates:

German level 3 was tough. I attribute that to the fact that I didn't take it very seriously this semester, as the semester was one of our craziest ones ever. It was the first time I left some blanks in the comprehension Q&A part. And as usual, lots of words I never seen before. Thank goodness I S/U-ed it! Oh well... If I'm really going to Technischen Universitaet Muenchen I gotta buck up and train a lot a lot...

Thermo was at the expected difficulty. After doing past year papers I realised that the November papers were easier... maybe because it's for those who have "da3 pao1" (adj., take-away; university lingo; referring to the situation where someone fails the subject and has to retake it next semester). The paper was do-able but I forgot many things... but I'm still hoping for the best. = )

Only one more paper to go! Jiayou everyone!!!
