hehe I love my lucky charm!

Basically we had our linear algebra midterm last Friday. As usual, the good luck bear bear (or cat.. haha) sats on the table in front of me. There were only four questions in the exam, which means one question is about 25 points. On Friday night, prof blah blah emailed us "I have finished grading your paper, but since it is the Chinese New Year tomorrow, I am not going to destroy your new year mood by posting the result online. But if you really want to know, email me."

I replied that "Chinese New Year celebration usually lasts for 15 days, by then, our second midterm might be coming.." So the prof did not send me my score.. What happened today was that he gave out the paper.. I got perfect score.. haha really want to laugh, havent seen it since Dunman.. Anyway, the whole class was demanding the prof to review the identity of the person whop score full mark.. But it is also the college regulation that the prof has no right to do so..

So the prof was like "hmm, if SHE does not want to review HER identity, I cannot do it." (there are only 4 gals in the class and we were sitting in the centre of the classroom), so all the guys gave us the "eh.. " look
then the prof said "Sometimes, a lucky charm does work."
Everyone turned to look at me..
then the prof continued "But, I do not think so."
so everyone turned away..
The prof kept his face straight and said "I believe I have a lot of mana, at least a lot more than some soft toy which does not know anything about linear algebra.. But obviously, I did not bring good luck to the person who I was sitting in front of during the exam.."
So the class was confused..

haha must admit, the feeling is damn shiok.. (Now I really understand why THE S01A people feel so good liao..)

yep, and kiss my bear bear!! (Dan Dan dun be excited.. not talking about your BB..)

ps: the prof wants to borrow my bear bear for an important presentation tomorrow.. should I lend him? (I cannot imagine Rooney holding my bear bear during the presentation.. hmm..)

People have asked me why my name is so damn bloody hard to pronounce, I would say it's not my problem. Just in case anyone who is interested to find out what the name actually means, here it is:

萱 pronounces as xuan, is the flower called daylily pictured above;

仲 pronounces as zhong, means I am the second child in the family

弦弦诉人意,弓弓道世情

可以高贵,可以平凡
可以不问英雄出处
可以痴情风流的二胡
一弦可以大江东去
一弦可以月游西湖
一曲未了竟有琴弦启开江南
让俏丽的姑娘
用浓浓的茉莉花语
从红袖里伸出酥手
把一个河山香透

My Erhu, My Forever Love
