With assignments piling up and presentations to prep for, it’s no wonder that students are feeling the stress turn up a notch at this point in the sem. As students in the 12th best-ranked university in the world, we know exactly how you feel.
The Ridge presents four moments that reminded you just how NUS your life has become – both good and bad. So take a break! Have a breather and cry laugh on with us.
1. Moments of luck ✨ (aka is that D1 in the distance?)
…luck that is unfortunately short-lived.
2. Moments of confusion 😰 ???
NUS is a whole new world of rules and lessons to learn. Be it figuring out the right bus to take, which queue to join at the Arts Canteen Yong Tau Foo stall or learning how to use the printers at the Central Library, we all have had those moments when we had to pause and figure out how to get the “simple” job done.
3. Moments of frustration 💢 !@#$%
It all begins with CORS and module bidding…
… And let’s not forget the daily commute.
And the one time you skipped that tutorial assignment.
Then there’s exam scheduling.
4. Moments of joy ❤️💃🎈
Of course, we can’t forget the feeling that absolves all the rest – when we find little moments of joy unique to NUS.
Relatable? In the end, we’re all students battling our way through NUS… so whenever you feel overwhelmed, take a deep breath, and remember that we’re all in this together.
