Okay, so I've just finished the registration process for my upcoming UOL May exams.
This post will just be a note to myself for future reference.
First, there was the Exam Entry on the UOL portal after which the Exam Entry Form (EEF) can be printed.
Once the EEF is obtained, then the exam registration for the London side is completed and there's only the registration for the local exam centre, RELC. Payment is via the AXS machine and the completed EEF is to be sent via the RELC portal. Once the confirmation email is received from RELC, the whole examination registration process is then complete.

Countdown 2017!
Just a quick post here.
Am just back from my first ever countdown with friends(I'm quite certain this is my first countdown not spent with my family) which was spent outdoors and not in front of a TV screen at home. It's past 4am already as I'm typing this so I'll make this a quick one. Really ought to be getting some close eyes haha!
Met the usual group, JL, W and L for a quick dinner at Just Acia@Dhoby Ghaut before heading to get drinks and then taking an MRT to Bayfront. We were really just intending to watch the fireworks but not to join the crazy crowds of hardcore party goers at the more happening venues. So yea, what better place than the awesome vantage point atop Marina Barrage?
By the time we arrived at our destination, it was already crowded. While we waited for midnight to crawl by, we ate some food we had prepared and had a few games of cards. It wasn't long before the new year neared. Expecting to hear the yearly chorus of 10..9...8..., I was rather surprised by the silence which engulfed the area. Missing was the "countdown", likely due to how isolated we were perched atop the Marina Barrage, but more puzzling was the lack of cheerful chatter and well wishes among those around us. I didn't hear people wishing each other a good year ahead or awesome 2017 or what not. Instead, silence.
When the fireworks appeared, too far in the distance to look nice in photographs or to even be heard, I was suddenly aware of the reason for the lack of sounds and voices. Everyone around me had their cameras or phones held up, videoing the fireworks I presume. As such, every individual was as still as a statue, not daring to make a sound nor move for fear of damaging their recording. Oh wells, so much for getting out to soak up the new year's eve atmosphere. A rather interesting first countdown "party" nonetheless.
