Fantasy Route Changes.
Service 23 will be extended from Tampines to Pasir Ris, following similarily to service 7's route. While that happens, service 7 will be shortened to ply between Bedok - Clementi.

The extension of service 23 is aimed to provide a quick link to town at Tampines and Pasir Ris areas. In the past, taking service 7 from these areas to town is very time consuming. In addition, with the extension of service 23, a direct link is established between Tampines, Pasir Ris to Temasek Polytechnic.

1st Revised Fantasy Route update

Update:
1. Fantasy routes have been bulleted for easy differentiation between road names and landmarks for bus stops.
2. In addition, several frequencies have also been updated especially to the routes that have been amended from the original routes ever since Transitlink Bus Guide 2008has been introduced in Feb 2008.

Proceeding to updating of real route that do not exist in Transitlink Bus Guide 2008 mainly the SBS Nite Owls and the new Premium Bus services.

Quick Update

Lectures have commenced but not the tutorials. Everything starts slow for the first week. As soon as my tutorial for the English module starts in the second week, I am beginning to feel that the pace has started to accelerate "exponentially". Several assignements have already been given out for this modules and hence I begin to ruminate whether more will be coming for the other modules in the third week which all the tutorials are commencing.

In conclusion, I have to be mentally prepared.

Fantasy Route change 974A

Service 974A will be amended not to ply Lim Chu Kang Rd with effect from 23 August 2008 as it seems impractical to ply the sector with low demand.

Serivce 115 not withdrawn.

I just checked at the SBS Transit website just now. Service 115 timetables, route details are still available whereas for service 68, they have been taken out. I guess most probably service 115 is not withdrawn.

Fantasy Route Change 28

Fantasy Route Change 28. Service 28 will be serving Bedok Nth Ave 4 and Simei Ave instead of Tampines Ave 1 and Bedok Reservoir Rd. This fantasy route amendment is aimed to improve links in Bedok Nth Ave 4 which is only served by service 17. This allows a direct link from Bedok Nth Ave 4 to Bedok, Kembangan, Eunos, Paya Lebar areas. This will be with effect from 17th August 2008.

Service 28 is chosen to be amended is because service 67 duplicates it from Paya Lebar all the way to Tampines Ave 1. Therefore, service 67 can be treated as a substitute service from Paya Lebar to Tampines Ave 1. In addition, with my amended service 18, residents living at Tampines Ave 9 area already have a direct link from Tampines Ave 9 to Bedok Reservoir, Tampines Ave 1. Therefore, service 28 in my opinion should be amended to create more links elsewhere and to reduce duplication oif the route along with my amended service 18.

Time for school

After nearly 2 years of slacking, with my brains rotting, tomorrow marks the beginning of gear 1 of my left brain. More intellectual thinking will be entailed from me from tomorrow onwards all the way lasting for 4 years.

O week was a time for me to get mentally prepared for the arduous journey ahead of me plus the time for me to find out and share with my peers more about timetables, bidding modules and other administrative stuffs. Till now, I am still at a loss regarding about tutorial timetables.

9th August 2008 was National Day and a day that Singapore has turned 43 this year. But to me, it was more to that. It was a last day for fun and play. My friends and my cousins plus my brother and I went for several rounds of DOTA lasting for a couple of hours. Though, I lost most of the rounds, I gained some insights to several heroes. And I have noticed two things. NO ONE WAS PICKING AN INTELLIGENCE BASED HERO FOR THE ENTIRE DAY and ONLY 2 INTELLIGENCE HEROES WAS RANDOMLY PICKED IN ONE OF THE ROUNDS. Geomancer and Viper appeared for most of the rounds that we played and I was rather sick of playing against them.

So back to O week, it was a week of fun plus mental preparedness for the university journey ahead. I regret that I was unable to stay over for two nights because of my deferment of MOB Briefing scheduled on 15th August 2008 plus a secondary reason of mosquitoes inhibiting in Lecture Theatres. I could see them hovering around my uncovered legs, seeking for FRESH BLOOD. And yes, congratulations that I got sunburnt at my neck area during the Sentosa outing. Perhaps these will form memorable memories of O week and lastly of course, I get to know many friends in O week. Most important of all, I have learnt how to find lost 10 cent coins effectively (an OG game about the missing 10 cent coin).

So to end, it's time for school tomorrow.
