So much time has passed huh?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I really have not done much \u2018blog worthy\u2019 things to post. Heck, if anything my desk is covered by a thick layer of stuff. Unopened penpal letters.  New purchases, stationery\u2026. I have new pens and they are all unopened, uninked, untested\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead, work has been crazy, and never ending\u2026 And to add to that I\u2019m cramming for GRE\u2026 So no, the situation is not going to improve anytime soon. Not in the slightest bit\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just here to take a bit of a breather. I did manage to cram all of the GRE math syllabus yesterday and today. That\u2019s a real achievement I tell ya, considering how much I hate and suck at math. Tried a few test sections and been getting 3-5 questions wrong each time\u2026 So it seems that I can expect 160 ish score for that. Not great, considering that pretty much all the wrong questions were either because I misunderstood the question, didn\u2019t read the question carefully enough, or was simply careless. I was also quite exhausted doing the paper, but with the amount of work that I would most likely have over the next few months, I would be even worse for wear by the time I take the test so\u2026 It\u2019s not going to get any better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The vocabs though are the real killer. Tried a bit of practice test and I score 11\/20 in one, 15\/20 in another, and a pathetic 10\/20 in a 3rd. Basically, I\u2019m NOT going to hit my bare minimum 320 target required at the moment. That leaves me with about 3 weeks to go to remember all those vocabs and practice essay writing\u2026 And I guess doing some more math practice tests because I can\u2019t afford to get rusty before test day eh?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The timing is just\u2026 Not great\u2026. Too much shit going on right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alright. Just a short entry. Till next time\u2026 When this madness is over, hopefully. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gosh.
