Aftermath of the France Trip

Hi!

Did you guys enjoy the Chronicles of France? Hope you guys didn't strain your eyes too much when reading those entries.

Anyway, I did promise to write about the weather before I left for France but I didn't have time, so let me make up by writing one now.

The weather in Lausanne is much warmer now. I can store the huge winter coat that I have and just wear the seater I have when I go out. However, the temperature can still get pretty cold sometimes, like the past 2 days where it had been raining.

We are in the transititon from winter to spring, although its now more spring than winter. The flowers are blooming and the birds are all coming out. Yea... Its definitely spring when the insects are out to bug you.

The trees were still bare and ugly when I left for France but after a few weeks, the leaves have grown back (and I realised that they were the same trees that I saw in France) and the neighbourhood seemed to have gotten more colourful.
This picture was taken just after I returned so the trees looked a little nicer.

Anyway, I had gotten back my results for the midterms. It turned out that I had not done as badly as I had thought I would get. Whew... The teacher was really very lenient in his marking (I think...) and so I got 58/78 (don't ask me why it had such a weird denomination) which is about 74%. Not too bad, but the average for the test was 80% (10 people got 100%... What the hell...) so I had gotten a little below average. But that grade seemed to be common, since the passing mark is 66% (or 4 out of 6 points).

Here, I don't have to worry about the bell curve, but I have to at least score 66% for a pass. Easier said than done... I'm trying. Its definitely not easy, but its attainable, something like the workload in NUS, except that its much easier since I don't have to make time for work and tuition.

Oh yea, I can post up the group pictures of me and my friends from the France Trip so I'll be doing that pretty soon.

See u ard!
