Konnichiwa Minasan! こんにちはみなさん。

Exams are coming!
BJFA-UBD Chapter wishes everyone the best of luck during examinations! We hope everybody enjoyed themselves during the club sessions and please accept our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience.

Some study tips for... all of you ^^
1) Make full use of your revision week and never do last minute revision.
2) Sleep is more important than study. Do not force yourself to study if you feeling really sleepy because it is just a waste of time and effort. Study when you are feeling refreshed and energetic! =)

Ganbatte Minasan! がんばってみなさん。See you all next semester!

Check this out!

Happy New Year!!!

2009-12-31T21:31:00.000+08:00

Hello everyone! NizaNekoChan here, wishing everyone a happy new year! I hope everyone is enjoying their holidays cos schools gonna reopen soon! 11th of January to be exact! (Well for UBD students anyway, normal school, I have no idea. Lol)

So it's out with the old, in with the new. It's time to look back and see if you've managed to accomplish what you've set out to do early this year. So did you manage to accomplish whatever goals you've set out early 2009? Yes? No? Regardless it's time to spread out a plan and set up your goals once more for 2010! I wish you all luck with setting up goals and accomplishing your new years resolutions! Hope 2010 will bring a lot of prosperity, health and fun challenges along with new friends to help you along the way! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

PS: According to bruneiastronomy.org, there's gonna be a partial lunar eclipse on the 1st of January 2010. It starts at 0117 (1:17am) but you won't get to see much until it's 0253 (2:53am) onwards.

PPS: At the same time the lunar eclipse is going on, countries on the other side of the world will be experiencing a "blue moon". No, the moon's not gonna turn blue, it's just a term used to describe the phenomena of the full moon happening twice in a month, or something like that.

Anyways HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! \(^o^)/

Good luck for the Exams!

2009-11-12T00:13:00.000+08:00

Hello all! This is Niza-neko-chan, wishing everyone in BJFA-UBD Chapter a heartfelt good luck and ganbatte (( hmm, I think that's the same thing, ne? xD )) for the upcoming *dramatic music* EXAMS!!! I bet you all are now busy, busy, busy, trying to complete whatever assignments you need to complete and send off to your respective lecturer's offices. Even though it's gonna be a wee bit hectic, try not to worry so much, as worrying too much will just throw you off your groove of getting things done!

So buckle up, put on your thinking caps and make sure to revise for your courses! Make sure to also get in enough sleep and don't forget your meals too! (( Our brains gotta have food to think! )) Oh! And don't forget to breathe, yes, you need to breathe too, cos that'll help pump the blood around your system and *goes on talking about the scientific things you don't wanna hear*

Anyways~ GOOD LUCK for your exams everyone!
