thursday went to holland v <3
friday, which was yesterday, was to my cousin's house. went swimming too! i need to buy goggles :X
saturday, today, was to ICCS! quite... interesting
and to taka for mooncake festival! i think i sampled mooncakes from like more than half of the booths ;P so much that i think i had my fair share of mooncakes for the year already :O
still, we bought some from the shangrila booth for ourselves,
and and and
i bought two boxes of mooncakes from TWG tea company!
uhm funny place to buy mooncakes, eh?
but they're mooncakes are really really nice!

hope my cluster mates will find them as nice i as thought they were C:

was so busy last week! :O
felt like puking, literally, after the chem hons test :P
i didn't think it was that bad at first, but after discussing with people, i found out LOADS of mistakes I'd made D: pray pray pray for a pass! :C
i found out i get to get a sdyc tee for volunteering for the art booth! yay C:
our school should have slackened our workload for the past two weeks to allow us to go watch and support the YOG! D: instead they bombed us with 5 quizzes, 2 tests and IGR >:(
next week is a slack week though C:

Am I not just the stupidest person?

Hi Xinyuan,

You've accidentally submitted your MA5403 Linear Algebra assignment to me. I'll pass it to Mr Wang for you. Please don't submit your MA5403 assignment to me next time.

Mr Chai

Dear Mr Chai,

I'm so sorry about my mistake. Both math module assignments were due on the same day (last Friday), and John was collecting the assignment, so I must have passed him the linear algebra assignment instead thinking it was the statistics assignment because I just checked and found out that my statistics assignment is still with me... :P

I'll hand the assignment in tomorrow, sorry again for the inconvenience caused.

Regards,
Hong Xinyuan

'Please don't submit your MA5403 assignment to me next time.'

in a (dangerous) post-exam mood!!
Went to the games room for FIVE times this week. and clocked some 3 hours in there today alone! :O
first went with wj tpl adeline joanna.
then was with a group of 402+odac+506 hybrid. um lets see. me adeline monica weiren e tung yanling john trang. yep
super fun luhhhhh!
well we first borrowed the stuff from the office. on the way to the games room, john knocked into weiren, who was holding onto the air hockey handle thingos. one of it dropped and crack! it broke into two :O
attempted to fix it
with monica's super glue
three times
managed to get the red handle to turn white with glue.
but not to get it stuck together -_-
luckily the security guard was nice, he said it's okay ;D
yeah so we pretty much played table soccer the entire time.
the last part super funny, it was tung vs weiren in a game which... ahem very high stakes.
wellllll weiren lost to tung. like three times ;P birthday boy not so lucky eh?
hmm i should be doing my work ;P played so much today le.

2010-07-16T15:38:00.001+08:00

i'm starting everyday looking forward to the end of the day, which is bad D:
went for the ISSF/RSSF interview yesterday. there were more teachers than i expected! 4 of them. Had to present our JTDP research project over again, this time compressed to some 5 minutes (that's that we were told, but i'm sure all of us overshot). i was quite worried about the questions they'd ask. Let's see... this is actually only the second time i'm having an interview! I think ;P the first one was PSL interview -_- which was unsuccessful. i was really quite scared that they'd me questions needing really specific knowledge behind the research :P oh teachers seem to like asking about standard deviation a lot -_- me and si ying were asked about them during our JTDP judging, and i got asked yesterday too!
welll just got an email from Mr Chiam saying that so far i'm shortlisted for RSSF.... together with yanling cleo yihui desmond and ryan. Hm. pretty nice group i guess, been with desmond to IGGY and i kinda know the other 3 girls? they say they're gonna interview some other candidates before giving confirmation, meh. hope can go!! oh good luck to tpl as well, hope you get australia C:
our tioman trip's in september :C i so wanted august, cus i want a nice long september break :C plus september is so close to our exams!!! ms lim give us false hope lorh. on tuesday she was saying our class is most likely going for the first one, ie the august one. and when she came to class today, she announce that our class was indeed going for the august one. I 'yes!'-ed really loud together with the rest of the class, only to find that she said wrongly and she had meant to say september -____- and we were all like awwwwwwwww!!!
oh well. adeline said the september one is $6 cheaper. That;s a plus point.
oh and siying would be going for september as well. That's a plus point too.
and we can get tips from the august group! That's also a plus point.
and yawen can come along with the class. That's another.
i hope i can continue to do painting during art club time, rather than fashion design! ;P go go go for UOB 2011!
played air hockey with 7 other superheroes yesterday! 4 girls vs 4 boys. and i can say that girls are better :D we won them 40 to 26 for the 'proper' air hockey, but they won us errrr i think 80 to sixtysomething? for air hockey left hand plus with 2 pucks version! was fun hahahhaha.
had dinner with my mum at west coast plaza yesterday! new york new york mmmmmmm C: happy birthday to her !!

2010-07-12T21:13:00.002+08:00

best wishes in advance to three very different people who are going to have their birthday within the next 7 days: my mum, my brother and tpl! C:
sunday, went to nanyang academy of fine art to collect our paintings back. pity none of us got anything ! ;P ms k said she saw some excellent paintings of other students too, but they didn't win either.
I saw the article in the sunday times later in hostel that a girl from RJC was the overall winner. She painted herself holding up a blank canvas, grimacing about lack of inspiration. She did do a pretty job, grats to her! Apparently the painting of the year for the past 4 years running was won by a photograph oO like those people who sent in photography. uhhhhh its a painting competition, hello? honestly i think its unfair to both photographers and painters that the two media should be put together in the same competition. I mean, its two completely different media requiring completely different skills! its quite hard to put two artworks together, one a great photo and another a great painting and then say one is better than another. its like ... having a competition between a surgeon and a lawyer to see who has better skills in their own respective field.
just going to NAFA, taking the painting back to school and going back home took me 4 long hours -_- someone really should invent a teleporting machine someday ;D
today... woke up incredibly tired. had to drag myself off the bed ;P we went to bed at 12 last night, but adeline and I talked about random stuff till 1+ am oO but afterwards we apparently slept quite well, cus we weren't awoken by the cheers from the people watching world cup finals!
lessons were as usual. boring and stuff. had my eyes half closed throughout physics lesson. Ok mr clifton soh's lame jokes can be quite funny sometimes.
talent search finals!
very entertaining :D loved the CBC performance, the guy is proooo
i think MAs did a great job. I mean, the number of participants of the competition, for one, went up dunno how many fold from the first year we had talend search :D and yea tricia said she thinks 'MAs can bond the school better than student council sometimes'
should i join choir as second cca? hmmmmmmmmmm
went to practice piano today! I feel stupid to be proud of myself for that. I mean, it ought not to be an achievement, but rather it should have been done as if it was a regular thing. ;P must practice more!!!
went games room with some superheroes today too! we played an air hockey rally. Super fun! C:
kay. its take supper time now.

2010-07-10T17:12:00.005+08:00

Sheng siong taiwan food fair!

Pears at $59.00 each, anyone? Got $9.00 offer, you know!

Hmm, but I don't really see the difference between those and these which are at $3 for two...

Now what about a watermelon at $70?

apple mangoes = yummy C:

2010-07-10T16:38:00.002+08:00

re-watching the 402 performance never fails to make me happy! C: C: C: C: C:
tuesday, wednesday, thursday, nothing too significant, except that one one of the nights was like play-mood, we had superhero dinner, played in the games room after dinner till study time (air hockey!), had a very unproductive study time and walked round the track right after study time, during which there was a fire drill! went back to eat the jelly tpl made (yumm) and cus we couldn't finish the entire plate, we played i had never and stuffed ourselves like umm .... water tanks?
pantry supplied included pringles this month. mmmm. our 4 tubes were gone in two days, cluster 4B's were gone within a few hours :O
speaking of food, i've been buying lots of food lately!
bought a whole lot of snacks and stuff from canada: biscuits, cereal, bread (their bread is yummy!), ham, chocolate, pop tarts (took a liking to this stuff after watching daveday+venetian princess' video on youtube)
then there was the hokkaido food fair at tampines: soft melon sweets, scallop takoyaki, um this glutinous rice-stuffed squid thing, curry buns and dried seafood! om nom nom nom nom
THEN there was the taiwan food fair in sheng siong! couldn't help but buy loads of taiwan goodies: biscuits, mochi and fruits. their fruits are really yummy, especially the apple mangoes! C: and and and, i don't know if i mentioned it before, everytime my dad returns from taiwan, he'd bring a long a few kilos of taiwan rice cus it beats any other kind of rice i've eaten C: and lo and behold, sheng siong has them for this period from 8-14 july! bought a pack of 1kg and a pack of 1.5 kg C: a whole lot more expensive than my dad bringing it from taiwan though :C
kay enough of food.
missed 506's class outing yesterday D: cus my mum didn't allow it
i must practice piano more more more more more !!!
badminton for PE these few weeks. okay la.
didn't get anything for my painting. oh well. at least i can get it back now!
i still can't quite get used to my new class. my class*. i don't think it should be considered 'new' anymore, yet...
can't believe we're gonna leave nushs in less than 1 and a half years time! I cannot imagine myself entering university. unfamiliar, foreign and stuff.

2010-07-05T18:09:00.002+08:00

just got back from 402 outing and feeling very happy! C:
me and moni were doing chem assignment right before we left home for class outing :P ended up both of us were a bit late, with her being one train behind me :O we reached in time for the movie of course though :D
nice to see everyone gathered again :D
this small animation before the movie started was quite amusing! it's called 'day and night' :D
and wellll we watched toy story 3, and it was awesome :D got me and everyone else laughing from start to finish C: there were also parts which were quite touching and parts where you just feel like giving latso (sp?) a nice punch in the face :D
watched the first toy story sooooo long ago i completely forgot what it was about haha. I don't think i watched toy story 2, or maybe i did, because the plot summary on wikipedia sounds a tad bit familiar.
okay i feel, after the movie, just a little guilty of neglecting my toys haha :D i think its pretty amazing how kids can have such fun with those inanimate little things, like they're so imaginative, they can really see all the toys coming alive and stuff like that. :D
went to carl's junior (my first time going to carl's junior!) to eat a pretty late lunch C: the three of us girls weining moni and i ordered one set of fish sandwich, and nevertheless still felt pretty full afterwards. so... we just sat there are ate and talked and talked for i think 2 hours or so? really nice to just sit and talk, simple as it may be :D and we're kinda more open to each other i guess? like for example when going home today monica commented that chris seems more talkative now in that he'd hardly ever talked to her before C:
oh oh i can't wait for the 402 taiwan trip! if there really is one! okay i'm starting to imagine all the fun stuff we can do together ;P hope we really can, monica must play good host kay :D
C:
402 time out together beats doing chem assignment that's due the next day anytime, any day C:
i think i'd really really miss my secondary school life after we graduate :C wish i could stay this age forever :P

this weekend passed so fast, even though they threw in a youth day for us :P
maybe its because i went out on all three days? saturday to my cousin's house from afternoon to late at ngiht, sunday to submit my painting for UOB from early morning to afternoon and monday (today) for time out with 402 friends ( C: )
hm yeap, finally finished my painting after some 100 + hours of breathing in paint.
went with keren, ms k and dang mai trang to nanyang school of arts to submit. seems like quite a lot of people join UOB! like the submission period is from 1pm to 6pm, and within that short time (maybe 10 minutes or so?), i already saw like some 7-8 people submitting in my category, and maybe 10+ under open? plus we went at 1+pm, which is when the submission just started so there should be relatively less people. so i'd say the average summissions per 10 minutes is 20 people? so... a bit of math, two people per minute for 5 hours, that'd be 600 submissions for youth category :O
they'd give winners (which is, sadly, very very few) a call on thursday ;P not having high hopes anymore since i realized that there are 1. lots of submissions 2. very little prizes, i thought there'd be a lot and 3. i saw some of the painting done by others, some were really nice!
but on the other hand, i get to keep my painting C:
mehhhh i dont't want school.....
kay back to my chem assignment D:

2010-07-05T12:02:00.002+08:00

off to class outing in a bit!
the break's a three day one this time, but it still seems horribly short!
and productivity, as usual, is rock bottom :P
hm where did all the time go to?

hope you all will tide over what seems to be an insurmountable wave, somehow D:
conflicts, compromises, dilemmas, emotions, sacrifices. Sorry I can't be of much help here... seems I'm just a kid after all :P But best wishes, you've got my support

2010-07-02T22:25:00.002+08:00

whoops, missed so many days, again. Loads, really loads of stuff happened, this week seemed to last for many times its actual length ;P
well to continue from where i left off...
plane ride back to singapore seems so much shorter than when i flew off to canada. Probably because when i went to canada, only 1 out of the 3 planes had personal screens for you, and the movie selection wasn't very diverse. On the way back, two out of the three had, and the selection was like WOW kind. watched spiderman 1, 2 and 3 (-_- always wanted to watch but had never gotten the chance, now finally did ;P) and percy jackson. Liked spidey 1 and 2, 3 and percy was just so-so. Hm i think i really like to watch superhero/supernatural-related stuff ;P
returned to singapore 2am in the morning, dead beat. slept at 4 ;P
Saturday was resting, packing and cleaning day.
went to serene's clarinet lesson on sunday! at plaza sing. I greatly apologize for my atrocious piano-playing! i swear i can play it 100 times better when i play on my own, just seem to get nervous and stuff when playing together ;P welllll i guess this indicates that i need tons more practice ;P
returned to hostel on sunday afternoon. went back pretty early this time round to check in and give our room a clean up
didn't think cleaning up would take such a long time, but we took like uhhhh the entire afternoon ;P
mmm room smelt a little of paint, but our walls are cleaner now C:
went to sumo house for dinner with adeline and siying and weijin. to skip the not-to-our-taste-western dinner, to visit sumo house since we'd not in quite a while and to go ntuc afterwards
we bought a weighing scale from ntuc!! madness eh? siying say that people say that people who weigh themselves regularly tend not to put on weight hahaahaah
all our teachers this sem changed, even PE.
quote elza: 'mr soh is so lame i want to cry'
dutifully practised piano on monday evening. didn't manage to follow up for the rest of the week though, shame on me
our room walked round the track for quite a few times this week! take the chance to walk round the track while we can... soon work will pile up such that we won't even be able to afford that ;P
we were saying after exams, we'd start walking round the track after dinner, and keep walking till it's supper time, when we'll head to the boarding office for supper and continue walking round till roll call time! ;D
oh oh and i finally finished my UOB painting ! I don't know what's the standard, but i think i'd be quite disappointed if i don't get at least a commendation award or something. for the hours and hours and hours and hours and hours that i'd put in! ;P
ARP was fun. the walk there was no fun though, with the upslopes and the sun. thinking of the dancing zebrafish makes me laugh ;D i'd never wanted to eat hostel dinner so badly before
(i think my points and sentences within each point are really incoherent)
envy classes with ms beiji dass! heard she's good from everyone :O my our's is not bad too i guess
our mentor seems to had lots of feedback to give
lost my motivation to blog, later C:

2010-06-21T12:00:00.002+08:00

xinyuan has witness first-hand the crashing of water down the Niagara falls! C:
maybe i'll post some pictures if i'm not too lazy to next time
weiren scam, say what 1km away can feel the water! but actually if the wind was blowing in your direction you could feel the water like 500m away i think
canadians are luckier than americans, they get to get a nice, full view of the falling water from their side cus the falls are facing canada ;P
i think sitting for 8 hours is almost as tiring as standing for 8 hours D: 8 hours bus rides are not fun, not fun
zz quite tired, shall go sleep :/

2010-06-19T07:47:00.002+08:00

I can't believe i'm actually sweating
I feel like such a splurger. oh there isn't such a word, firefox gives me a red squiggly
off to toronto tmr!
I already used up >8mb of camera memory! :O oh i don't think i mentioned, i got a new camera about a week before flying off
i'm really getting very scared of school reopening... i'm lagging behind in loads of things. basically those stuff that i listed ~10+ posts back

2010-06-18T11:49:00.001+08:00

what can i do? I'd be quite disappointed for them not letting me know, and then get on with life.

Do you keep your music at a content level?
yes

Or do you turn it up so loud your parents start yelling?
Haha no. I usually put it at a volume so that i can just make out the lyrics clearly.

Do you text alot?:
Not at all. the last time i texted was.... ages ago. okay fine that wasn't fair since i'm overseas, but even so, i think i average 2 messages per day?

Are tattoos a turn on for you?
No

Have you ever been caught dancing like a fool?
Not that i remember.

D:

2010-06-17T10:04:00.000+08:00

yayyy!!

adeline posted a quiz on her blog C:

my turn to answer!

What is your earliest memory?
I had quite a few early childhood memories, but I don't know which came first, like the very first kind of first. Definitely one from england though. There's one of my mum, my friend (several years older than me) and I rowing a wooden boat down the river, and that friend went onto a small island to chase after the ducks that were on it ;D There's another of my mum pushing me in my dark blue baby pushchair across a field, and then we came across this solitary concrete room with a door labelled 'high voltage' or something like that, related to electricity kind. Then my mum warned me not to go into it cus there were wolves in it :P There was also one of me sitting in the corner of the nursery over something, I don't remember what, but I do remember that it was very painful! D: okay maybe this memory is from Singapore, not sure. There's also of Thompson getting back at the boy who snatched my toy away :D

What did you enjoy most about school?
Talking with friends, laughing with friends, well just the presence of friends around you.

Name 1 thing you miss about being a kid.
When your number 1 worry was that the kid next to you had stole your eraser.

Who was your enemy or the bully when you were young?
No names here, but there was this girl I really hated. Shan't elaborate.

What was your favorite musical group when you were in Junior High?
Um. I'm in high school now right. So that's 2 years back I suppose? Hm. I don't think I had a fav musical group then.

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
*digs out diary* 1. artist. 2. zoologist. Okay I didn't actually find my diary, but i do remember making a list in my diary back then, and those two were on the top. My fav subjects are still art and bio C:

What was your favorite childhood injury?
uhhhh sadistic thinking no?

When was the first time that you had beer?
i don't think i'd had beer. Not even root beer haa :D

Worst roommate you have ever had
'i only have one so far =O and she's nice! '-adeline
heh thanks, my reply's the same C:

What is your worst dating experience?
haven't had any, and I hope i'd never have any :P

Which is the most funniest prank played on you or played by you?
Hm. There're so many my friends and I have played together, but I shall share the most danger-causing one! Well, basically its the classic pull-away-the-chair-just-before-the-person-sits-down prank. My friend did it to our teacher, and she broke her bone :P

What is the craziest thing you have ever done?
'im very sane de lor.' -adeline
me, loudly: 'ahem ahem!' I think i can list 100 crazy things she'd done :D Okay maybe not, cus most of them will fall under the category of 'ends up in unstoppable laughing spasms'

Do you have any hidden talents?
how would i know if it's hidden?
I have the talent of finishing one entire Schwartz's smoked meat sandwich! Okay that's no feat, but my mum only finished half ;P

Name one thing that not many people know about you.
'hm~ when i get big gulp i get 90% coke and 10% sprite.' -adeline
eh not fair, i know this one! wanted to know something else ;P
For me, hmmmmmm my current favourite colours are green and orange :P

Was there ever a time when you were frightened for your life?
do they mean frightened because i was about to lose my life, or had i ever been frightened in my lifetime? The former doesn't apply, as for the latter, yes i guess?

What outdoor activities do you like to do?
any game played with friends like frisbee, netball, captain's ball, cycling, kayaking, picnic, camping, swimming etc etc etc

Where is your most favorite place on this earth?
in my mind when i'm asleep, dreaming C:

Why do you like living in this area?
uh.
'area'?
but anyway, because it's out of this world, it defies common sense, it's liberating, I can even control everything and anything that happens sometimes, you could eat as much as you like with all the flavour but none of the calories, and even if you're having an unpleasant experience it's okay, because you'll soon wake up and say, phew, it was just all a dream C:

What do you consider the most important event of your life so far?
Hm. Me coming to Singapore? I suppose that's important enough.

Do you have any phobias?
'reminds me of the night we got high over all the funny phobias. alot~' -adeline
hahahahhhahha :D
i'm afraid of the future :P

If your house was on fire and you could grab only 3 things before leaving, what would they be?
'my pillows (argg counted as 3 already? i have 3 of them~)' -adeline
HAHAHAHA
kay for me, not considering the distance they are from me and the difficulty in finding them: 1. the folder where all the important documents are kept 2. the CD case containing CDs in which all of the photos are kept 3. handphone, to call the fire ambulance to put out the fire to save all the other things straightaway.

Do you believe in extraterrestrials or life on other planets?
yes!
since everything's suited to its own environment, I don't see why there can't be any on other planets.

Do you believe in ghosts?
Hm. I think I do. But not the semi-transparent floating figures that only scares people. More of the... uh dunno how to say.

What do you value most in life?
I think same as adeline, being happy.

If you were one of two people left on this earth, and the other was the same sex as you; would you go gay?
Huh. No, what's the point?

If you knew you were going to die in 24 hours,
name three things you would do in the time you had left.
1. have chalet with superheroes
2. play frisbee with 402 friends
3. spend time together with my family
4. (spare me one more point please!) for the last 30 minutes, go hang-gliding. Heck that i don't know how, it doesn't matter if i crash anyway :D

Most hated chore on the household chore list?
Hm. cleaning corners i think. Someone should invent a corner-cleaning tool.

If you were to perform in the circus, what would you do?
Hm. I think i'd like the flying trapeze C:

Do you have any relatives in jail?
Not any close enough for me to know.

When and with whom was your first kiss?
doesn't apply

If you could choose, how would you want to die?
natural death of course.

Do you believe everything happens for a reason?
Yup

If you could start your own restaurant, what would it be?
'a restaurant that sells desserts! dumplings also can! actually i was thinking or both but they dont really match...' -adeline
oh! same answer as me! :O

What is more difficult for you; looking into someone’s eyes when you are telling someone how you feel, or looking into someone’s eyes when they are telling you how they feel?
uh it depends on a lot of things. Hm if its something bad then i suppose the former?

You are on a flight from Honolulu to Chicago non-stop. There is a fire in the back of the plane. You get enough time to make ONE phone call. Who would you call?
come one who cares about calling? everyone to the emergency exits!

You are at the doctor’s office and she has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live. a) Do you tell anyone/everyone you are going to die? b) What do you do with your remaining days? c) Would you be afraid?
a)i suppose i'd tell my parents, they've got the right to know however unpleasant it is. But certainly not everyone, thats stupid.
b)um refer to 1, 2, 3... 10 questions above. oh wait i have 29 more days, can't be playing frisbee all the time :P Hm.
c)eh yea

You can have one of the following two things: trust/love.
love. trust is a subset of love.

Are you the kind of friend that you would want to have as a friend?
No. I don't really think i'd be good friends with myself, like supposing there was an exact clone.

Your best friend dies, what would you do?
attend the funeral, give condolences and stuff.

Excluding romantic love, when was the last time you told someone you loved them?
not that i remember :P not my thing :/

If you had to go back in time and change one thing, if you HAD to, even if you had “no regrets” what would it be?
I would protect my eyes more.

Imagine. It is a dark night, you are alone, it is raining outside, you hear someone walking around outside your window. Who do you call?
it is a dark night right now, and it is raining outside, and i am alone in my room C:
anyway i don't think i'd call anyone. but if its for a reaaaaaaaaally long time i'd call the police?

Would you give a homeless person CPR if they were dying?
If i knew how and if it'd help, yes.

Which would you choose, true love with a guarantee of a heart break or have never loved before?
latter
sorry, haven't experienced 'love' before, so no sacrifices to be made here C:

Who said that it's better to have loved and lost?
I wish that I had never loved at all

2010-06-17T09:34:00.001+08:00

I really appreciate all that you've done.

Sure, it'd been hard, it'd took loads of time and effort.

But I haven't got any say in this, have I?

2010-06-08T19:22:00.002+08:00

Meant to post this last night, but internet connection was down ;P so its continued with the part I wrote today

Hm let’s get the time right:
It is currently Monday, 7th June 12.20 pm in Singapore, and Monday, 7th June 12.20 am in Canada. But since it’d just past 12 am I’d take it as today’s Sunday, 6th June.

Yupp, so…
Thursday, 4th June (Singapore):

Last minute packing!
Didn’t expect to pack till so late, ended up sleeping at 12.30 am

Friday, 5th June (Singapore):

Woke up bright (not so bright) and early at 3am! : /
Got a cab at 3.30am and went off to terminal 1!
Apparently they’ve got this new procedure where Singaporeans entering the US have to sign up online for this thing (forgot what it’s called), even though Singaporeans don’t need VISA to get into the US :P yup, so did a last minute sign up with my laptop at the airport during check-in. My mum got a fright at first, thinking that this needed to be done several days before or something. Who knows it only takes 5 minutes -_- wonder what its for?
Grabbed breakfast at jollibean. Om nom nom, love their pancakes C:

Plane flight: Singapore>>Tokyo

It was seven hours I believe. I planned to watch tons of movies and read books, but ended up spending most of my time sleeping -____- I had planned to watch the hurt locker, Sherlock holmes and valentine’s day, but yea, guess I was too tired, and eyes just stung a lot.
A dad and his two kids were sitting beside us. Kids were very cute :D and very noisy.
Omelette with sausages for breakfast. And rolls. And yoghurt. And fruits. And milk. And potatoes. I bet flying makes you fat.
Hm. Nothing much to say, basically just slept most my time. Quite surprising, cus for almost all my previous flights I couldn’t go to sleep

Tokyo

Not much time spent there, had to transit ;P only a few minutes in their tourist shop. Everything looks so yummy and a price to match
Oh I saw the Hokkaido chocolate weijin bought us!

Plane flight: Tokyo>>Detroit

This one was 11 hours. Spent most of my time sleeping, again.
And this plane didn’t have those personal screen thing on the seat in front of you! But didn’t matter too much to me this time anyway. Watched valentines day on the big screen though.
I don’t know what meal was it cus I didn’t know what was the time of the day, but had teriyaki chicken plus eggs plus rice plus yoghurt plus curried shrimps plus salad plus juice plus rolls plus fruits, and a snack afterwards was Danish pastry plus fruits.
I like seeing the view from the plane when it’s up in the air! clouds are pretty stuff C:
But somehow, it seems like I’ve always gotten a seat such that its directly above the wing of the plane. So it cuts of a big portion of the view :C

Detroit

Nothing much. Clearing customs was a hassle

Plane flight: Detroit>>Montreal

This one was just 1 hour and 45 minutes.
The plane was tiny. I think the tiniest plane I’ve ever sat. there wasn’t even a center isle, and there were just two seats on each side. If I’m not wrong, there needed only 1 flight stewardess.
Under 2 hours but there’s still food for you! Peanuts, pretzels, cookies, soda, etc etc
My mum says she saw, during the flight from the window, this wide river which looked like it was emitting smoke. I was sleeping then, so I didn’t manage to see it :P it could be the Niagara falls, cus it is located between Detroit and Montreal! :D

5th June (Montreal time)

Dad picked us up from the airport C:
Got someone to drive us to the rented apartment downtown. Montreal is cool, in the temperature sense :D
Well well well, the apartment was a pleasant surprise!
See, cus there were 3 rooms, a dining room, a complete bathroom and a kitchen! And a balcony! In other words, a real apartment! And this was all for merely $75 per night! Awesome eh?
By the time we returned, it was already 9pm. Dad cooked up dinner for us, spaghetti and stuff. Yum yum. There’s free internet excess here too (duh)! But its not very steady though :/
Slept (almost) the moment I lied down C:

6th June

Woke up feeling tired. Well, what could I expect, I woke up at what it was to be 11pm at night!
Thankyou ben for helping with my account!
Lunched, and went out to their train station metro to get tickets
Went to their supermarket too. Their supermarkets look so much nicer than those in Singapore!
They’ve got huge arrays of baked goods and cereal and salads :O
Oh, outside was cold, everyone on the streets walked quite briskly
Went over to one of my parents’ university friend’s house in the afternoon.
Was an hour’s train+bus ride from where we stayed
Their trains are noisy heh heh, compared to singapore’s mrts. When they approach it’s like thunder
Oh everything around us is in French, je ne comprehend pas! (I think that’s the way to say/spell it, if my memory from 3 years ago doesn’t fail me!)
Uncle and auntie were very smiley, and auntie was very very very talkative! She could just bring up something to talk about at all times, so when she was around it was never quiet ;O
They’ve got a daughter who’s a year and a half older than me. She’s entering CEGEP soon.
The adults kept reminiscing about their uni years. I wonder, that’ll be the way when we grow up and gather again?
Time passed real fast, it was 10.30 pm by the time we left.

7th June

Woke up feeling tired again. Jet laggzzzzzzz
Had a hearty breakfast C: everything seems so yummy
Lunch at a Chinese buffet restaurant. Mm was not bad, ate till I was so full ;P
Walked down to this place called old port. It’s apparently the oldest place in Montreal, where Montreal first started out etc etc
The streets are really rustic, seems to me like those old London streets, with the brown blocks of houses, stone paved streets, and oil lamps.
They have quite a lot of horse drawn carriages in that area. Though it was a solid 48 bucks for the 3 of us, I couldn’t resist but to take it :P chose a shiny black horse :D
Hm don’t feel like tying anymore, shall end here :/

2010-06-04T22:20:00.004+08:00

4 more hours before i have to wake up
i am looking forward to the 22 hour flight !! C: i love flights
but strangely i'm not all that looking forward to the 20 days that follow. Probably due to the stuff i've described in the previous post.
i'll try to keep my spirits up!!

another interesting afternoon with monica at st lukes!
i think it's fun to work there. The staff seem like they enjoy themselves C:
This time round my holiday to canada is like... hindering a lot of other things D: most important of them all, my ARP. Then practicing piano for serene's accompaniment. Then catching up with bio o, haven't been reading, so much for my target ;P And then there's also UOB painting, which i cannot finish.

uarghhhhh

D:

2010-06-01T21:47:00.002+08:00

Past two days were .. nothing much. Painting in the morning for both days. Pretty satisfied with my painting so far! C:
Have been playing altador cup games! Shenkuu's dropping down the standings this yearrrr D: but nevermind, I'm still supporting the team that I like!
Went to meet my ARP NUS mentor with si ying and mr lee today. I like mr lee, he seems very responsible so far. And I'm okay with our prof Prof Ge as well, at least we even got to see her, which is a big leap from... uhh ahem the case in JTDP. I'm so terribly sorry that I'm going overseas for pretty much the entire holidays! D': waaah really feel quite bad over this..... : /
I like packing for holidays
I like taking planes C:
I like the vacuum freeze-dried durian my mum bought for me yesterday from bee cheng hiang!
I like vegatable buns from crystal jade C:
Shall find some time to scan in and upload the neoprints we took...

2010-05-30T10:42:00.002+08:00

tame tame dry with 402 girls!

we had spent 30 min during the journey home on SIMC closing ceremony night calling up all the 402 guys asking them if they want to come along, but they ended up either not picking up or saying that they can't make it 7.7
so it was just monica, weining, shaoxuan, yawen and I!
quite cool, the five of us each lives 3 mrt stops away from another :D
we were lucky people that day!
so happens that nEBO was celebrating its 49th anniversary, so they were having a promotion such that 3 tickets were for $14.70, when the original price for 1 ticket alone is $15.50! :O :O :O
that promotion is for nEBO members of course, and resourceful weining signed up as a member!
throughout the entire day we were remarking that whenever we want to go out to play, must ask weining along because she can enjoy loads of privileges as the member! :D like half price at Zone X, special price for coasta sands resorts, cheaper movie tickets etc etc etc :D
hmmm before that shaoxuan and monica bought swimwear at the stalls at ehub, and weining bought herself a royal blue halter dress C:
even though we reached pasir ris at around 1+, it was not until 3 when we really started to play at wild wild wet!
shaoxuan yawen and i were running around like blind bats cus spectacles are quite a hassle in a water theme park :/ weining was telling me to get a box of disposable contacts for 'special occasions'. hmmm see how la ;P i'm scared to meddle with my eyes :O
i kinda like it when there are a lot of people when you're at a theme park cus there'd be more of the theme park 'feel'. but then again the queues for the attractions would be looooong :P that day, friday, was vesak day, so there were a lot of people! we were completely dry the first 15 minutes inside because we were queuing up for the ride where there's this huge tube which sits 5 or 6 people, and the tube slides down C:
there were too many people for the tubes, so at first we couldn't get enough tubes, and all 5 of us were sharing one miserable meant-for-one-person tube :P we each leaned against one small portion of the tube such that we all faced inwards, and started playing heart attack :D funny how now and again one of us will fall off! :O
oh the second time round people started to clear a bit, and so we managed to get tubes enough for all 5 of us :D we'd hold on to each other's tubes, such that our tubes forms this ring thing which kinda clogs up the 'river' channel :D
pity couldn't take any pictures :C
amazing how weining could go the entire day without food!
had pizza after we went out :D
some of us weren't all that full after pizza, and yawen suggested going for laksa, and we did C:
there were two similar laksa stalls side by side in downtown east, and when we walked over and looked like we were interested, each of the two stall's lady bosses rushed up to us and shoved the menus under our noses, heavily promoting their own stall :P scaryyy
well we chose our stall and sat there eating and talking for like, 2 hours :D
went to get weining's nEBO card afterwards. C: we had to wait a while for it, so we went to take neoprints in the meantime :D
great day it was :D

Saturday: went over to cousin's house to swim and eat rice dumplings. Haven't swam for .... i don't know, i'ts too long that i don't know how long it is :P

2010-05-27T10:12:00.002+08:00

had quite an interesting time at st. luke's with monica yesterday ... ;D

happy brithday monica!
chitchatted along the way
it was kinda last minute, so the people there weren't really notified that we were coming so they kinda didn't have things for us to do at first
but later katherine allocated us this two shelves of patient files, and we were supposed to look through them and pick out those without certain forms, and call up the next of kins of those patients to ask them to fill up the forms...
was kinda scary at first cus we haven't done anything like this before! and some of them, they've come down to do admin stuff for quite a few times already, so they'd be annoyed to come down again. And indeed, the first lady i called, she was kinda mad and kept on shouting 'what forms?! what for?! for what?!' etc etc.
quite a few other funny things happened too... there was once we called and asked, 'is this Ms ___'? and the person was like 'i am the son -_- '
and and and... one other guy we called, and turns out that... the patient had passed away already :O :O
hmm really interesting experience.
the staff at st. luke's are really approachable and friendly! C:
oh they've got this paper pinned up on their notice board about new internal rules and regulations. monica saw it when we were done with the files and were taking a break. she pointed out the section under 'toilet breaks' and it read :

(roughly, can't remember exact wording)

Toilet breaks
1. It is noted that employees are taking too long toilet breaks. Toilet breaks are now limited to three minutes. At the end of three minutes, the toilet roll will retract, the cubicle door will open, and your picture will be taken
2. Repeat offenders will have their picture posted on the 'chronic offenders' notice board.
3. Anyone caught smiling in the photo will be referred to the institute of mental health.

it was so funny we kept laughing and laughing! For a moment I thought they seriously implemented this rule, until i read the other sections, then we decided that it was just a joke. There were other sections like lunch breaks, attire and compassionate leaves. I took a photo of that sheet with my phone camera, but i left my phone and keys and bus card etc etc with my mum -_- and she's off to work now -_-

C:

2010-05-23T20:43:00.002+08:00

vertical marathon!

i've never climbed anything higher than 10 floors before, and i haven't been climbing anything more than 3 floors to my cluster for the past few months, and today we went for 63 ! :O
loads of people overtook me on the way up : / i think compared to others, we're really a lot worse off. Okay at least i'm a lot worse of haha, cus taiyu weijin and germ were quite a few storeys ahead.
staircases need better ventilation
someone puked on the way up. poor thing.
there are so many volunteers cheering people. A little bit too much, i think ;P
freebies and goodie bag! C: typical singaporean heh heh.
they gave us a $5 voucher for anything at oneraffles place, but thing is most of the shops weren't open today ! hmmm :/
gorged muffins like a pig after we finished
view from the top is great :D
weijin opened his goodie bag and found a men's health magazine. then i was thinking, they assume everyone to be a man? So i opened mine, and found mine to be SHAPE instead, so we thought oh maybe they made it such that females get SHAPE and males get men's health. tricia opened hers, and hers was men's health!
they have this bull thing where you're supposed to ride on it and grab hold of this holder. then, they'll make the bull twist and turn and see how long you can last riding up there. weiren didn't hold the holder like we were meant to, but instead hugged the entire bull and wrapped his arms around the bull's neck. ended up he spoiled the machine! pro luhhhh
germ went back for church first, then tricia taiyu weijin and I randomed around loitered at the mrt for a looong time just talking
yogood people are so generous with their samples
heh i really liked today C: join next year? C:

2010-05-21T22:53:00.000+08:00

heaves a sigh of relief C:

staying put...

... for now

2010-05-19T15:03:00.002+08:00

yesterday was first a talk from this organization/group called mercy relief. hmmm
then was this workshop called social etiquette and communication. turned out better than i expected C: the instructor was quite entertaining and we laughed quite a lot throughout the entire thing. 5 hours didn't seem that monstrous, after all.
today was this lab safety talk which half my class slept through, and then career day. Um career day seems to be exactly the same every year.
seeing people play pokemon makes me feel like playing again :/
get well soon to all that are sick! :C

2010-05-17T23:19:00.002+08:00

ran today and is feeling good about it C:

I'd been slacking away since exams ended, and today it dawned on me that i actually have a lot of things to complete and i shouldn't be slacking at all!

UOB painting
finish learning that schumann piece for serene's accompaniment! :O
ARPARPARPARPARP (i'm glad we got our first choice C: si ying he2 zuo4 yu2 kuai4!)
start reading the bio textbook... should aim to finish the entire book by this hols? : / already half done i think
read all those books i borrowed

hm not that much afterall, but each on its own is pretty time consuming : /

starting tomorrow, jiayou !

2010-05-16T23:14:00.002+08:00

Intercluster volleyball!

hand and wrist all bruised from volleyball -_- i wonder who invented volleyball. Probably some person who got hit by a rock or something and the rock bounced off his hand and then he's like, hey! we could play a game of letting balls smash into your hands!
there were only 4 girl teams, so only played 2 rounds. lost the first round with 2B, won the second with 2A. The one with 2A was.. uhh like 3 vs 6, cus they didn't have enough players. But honestly i don't think the number of players makes a difference, cus most of us are so bad at volleyball that it only depends on which group can serve better. once its served, it's either bad serve or a serve that scores you a point.
SO, the thing that matters the most is that you win the scissors-paper-stone at the start of the match to determine who gets to serve first! If you win, chances are you'll win the entire round if you're a good server, cus the team which gets a point gets to serve again ;P
yea so there was this time where i served a consecutive 8 to 9 times, which killed my wrist D: like banging the same spot again and again. now its carrying out an innate immune response!
xitong hit her hand more badly than me :O hope hers get well soon! its like the ball hit her thumb and now the base of the thumb is swollen pretty bad. I had that before like.. last last year, and it took me 3 months to recover fully D:

Neopets!

neglected my poor pets ever since i moved into hostel, where ... using the internet too much is not good for your sanity.
but using network connect now! which is a yummy 7Mbps, and ben mentioned neopets few days back, and i decided to check my account.
and woah! one of my stocks went up by >1000%, making me 1 mil richer instantly! :O
now my interests increases by 1 np every time i collect my interest C:

Random!

my mum's gonna treat me to a kinda high class western restaurant next week, i think, cus she wants to learn dining etiquette :O
i feel like swimming !
i felt okay about painting the UOB now but now like, kinda sian : /
i feel like playing pokemon again, now that i see tricia playing it :O
adeline and siying are watching dramas day in, day out...
i love my mum's cooking! C:

elza's birthday!

went goodwood park hotel with adeline siying and tricia to get a DURIAN cake!
mmmm it was like the yummy-est superhero birthday cake so far! people who don't like durian are missing out a lot :C

professional fine dining etiquette workshop!

quite ... weird to see all the level mates dressed up
the facilitator was quite funny, i had expected the workshop to be pretty dry C:
food was mehh. Some said the mushroom soup and the tiramisu was really good, but i thought it was just so-so. for really good mushroom soup try saybons at plaza sing basement! C: and for really good tiramisu try da paolo gastronomia at chip bee gardens near holland village! C:
they say to cut your meat from left to right, but how do you do that when its a piece of chicken with bones? oO
was feeling very tired + sleepy + sian throughout the entire thing cus of chalet. Me and adeline were wondering how eyang can still be so energetic. at least he seemed to be.

chalet!

shall post about chalet in another post

talent search semi-finals!

seems like quite a lot of people joined talent search this year!
lots of people from our class couldn't make it, but we got round it and tried to fit everything in.
i think xitong's pretty good! choreographed quite a bit of moves for us! such that it was.... quite a lot different from what we did for the auditions.
i hope we get into the finals : /

why are so many people unable to make it for the 506 talent search semifinals?!?! D:

exams are... over?
going off for 402 chalet TOMORROW! C:
keeping my fingers crossed that it doesn't rain...
went to my cousin's house to celebrate an early mothers' day yesterday!
the sky was oh so blue when we went out, like really, the blue-est sky you can ever get. And guess what? like 3 hours later, it became totally overcast and by the time we were on the bus on our way home, it was pouring very very heavily :O the bus was like displacing water as it drove along so it created those huge waves (okay waves was a bit exaggerated) and the drains looked like a long muddy river : /
yep and awesomely, we hung out laundry to dry before we went out of the house -_-
my bedsheets were just this bit away from dropping down the block :O it was hanging like, precariously from a single clip
went to the library and borrowed loads of book too. Don't think i can finish reading them, must jiayou :P
we ate dinner at cafe galilee in the library C: brownie was mmmmm C:
shall spend the rest of today on the piano + drawing + reading, and at night pack for chalet C: love life like that, rather than study eat study eat study sleep eat study eat study eat study sleep, which was pretty much what i'd been doing for the past few days D:

我累了...
AP calc was fine overall i guess. MCQ section was okay, but frq second part time a bit tight. I hope can get 5, feeling a little worried.
suddenly don't feel like continuing the post

2010-05-04T20:07:00.003+08:00

less than 70 hours to go! Just a little more C:
my internet connection's a yummy 7.0 Mbps now! C:
but i hope it's.... uh nevermind.
so far, the only revision i'd done tmr's AP calculus is 1 miserable frq paper. I hope I don't forget too much cus I don't really feel like putting much effort into studying math. No mood :/ Just don't drop below like 80/108 and it's a five in the bag :/
today's breakfast was interesting. Some malay food thing that's spicy and has uhh I forgot the name for it, its those rice thing that's usually wrapped up in green strips : / plus cabbage and long beans and stuff
I find i need to walk and study at the same time, or else chances are i'd fall asleep on the table
feel like playing piano
stuck to taylor swift songs these days :/
elza took one whole stack of laundry service slips today! Was kinda hilarious when she did :D But then we thought about it and realized that the stack is, after all, not as much as we thought it was. it'd only last us for about 6 weeks...
walked 3 rounds round the track with my roommates yesterday night. on our second round, we visited the toilet near the track. So its like, the lights are turned off before we went in. Just when we were about to leave, we realized that one of the toilet cubicles was occupied
and we started imagining all sort of things that could be in that cubicle. not our fault, we're conan-readers, see. Adeline was funny, she absolutely refused to be the last in the group, claiming that something will get her from behind if she does. Then we started to talk about ghost stories we'd heard. One of elza's was about this teacher or student (she forgot) from her pri school that committed suicide by hanging from the fan. And we started to scare adeline again, by saying the rest of us have got 'protection' at night while adeline's left susceptible, cus me, elza and siying have got mosquito nets over our beds :D
adeline and siying ate 20+ meatballs at a go today during lunch oO
i love provence bread !
hm i'd like to write about more stuff, but i've got to go study math :/ really neglected math a lot this time ...

2010-05-04T19:56:00.002+08:00

Very often when I'm studying, I'd stop to think if there is really a point in studying. We're studying for tomorrow's exam so we can get a good aggregate to get into a good university to study more. We're studying in universities so we can get good grades and go on further to do more degrees and study more. At the end of the day, we're tired and exhausted and in return we get, well, maybe a good, secure pay of say, $10,000 a month? But would it have been better if we'd spent the time instead, to interact more with our family members, to laugh more with our friends, to do what you are really interested in, what you enjoy doing the most?

But then I'm inclined to think, we've haven't got much of a choice. It's a competitive, money-driven society, and being part of it, you, well, just tend to 'go with the flow'. No matter how much you'd like, how much you'd rather do that thing you find more meaningful, it just isn't 'realistic'.

And yep, I've got to stop thinking and get back to studying for tomorrow's exam.

2010-05-03T19:20:00.002+08:00

i swear my notes emit sleep-inducing hormones
less than 4 days more!! I can taste it already, mmm...
saturday = boring
sunday = boring
today = boring
went music room to play piano to destress on both days. On sunday, si ying came along. yep so i booked the music room at 3pm and played for a little over 20 minutes when a few boys came in and said they've already booked the room. So i was kinda puzzled, cus when i wrote my name on the book i don't recall seeing anybody booking the music room. And one of them said "we booked this room... until 10 pm" so i was like huh? how? And so they went out, and came back not long later with a copy of the booking-rooms-paper. Turns out that they've wrote their name way up, a lot before my 'slot' on the paper, so i didn't see it when i went to book. And lookie there, they're in a group of five, so they took turns to book, one after another, from 3pm to 10pm! What's more, they're not there to play music, they're there to use the aircon to study oO security lady was funny. "china right?" (not that i've got anything against chinese people, i'm one myself)
manz i feel like running, shouldn't have bathed
bubble tea made be super bloated :O weijin so nice, provided bubble tea at discounted price for 'de-stressing'
what she fantasizes/says gives me the chills
wanted to go music room today too, but ended up sleeping instead. oh well.
went out with my relatives on sunday evening to celebrate my cousin's birthday! went to dian xiao er at west coast plaza C: my aunt poor thing, she looks weak from her appendicitis :/
timing fitted nicely, cus sunday = western dinner = chances are not something that i'd like to eat. and yup, it was cream fish/lasagna, which isn't very nice :P
my mum bought me bread from provence! C: mmm thankyou thankyou! C:
our group's EEA is... uh haven't started : / and i so don't feel like doing english
GC, thank you for being there for me for every exam, test, quiz, graded task, assignment, (12 x 7 )-kind-of-calculations but you can retire now C: I got a new GC haha.
that was another 30 minutes closer to freedom!

2010-05-01T09:10:00.002+08:00

spend 2 hours last night meddling with my comp's internet connection with the help of ben and fiza :O 2 hours, yeah, cus i'm a complete tech idiot and had to get instructions like step-by-step : / didn't work out in the end cus like webvpn can't connect unless ezxcess is connected, but the point is to not be connected to ezxcess and etc etc. so i still dc-ed at 12am and couldn't connect back, cus i think there's something wrong with the hostel internet such that no one can connect back after it resets at 12am :O
but i tried connecting to webvpn just now and it worked! so my internet speed is up to a 6.70 Mbps from a measly 0.03 Mbps last night! thankyou ben thankyou fiza thankyou thankyou! :D
one thing's not right though. I can't connect to msn. hmmmmmmm
i think ben said something like changing the internet connection settings for msn, shall go try later.
mann i need to study but i'm totally not in the mood to!
they ought to get the music room aircon + air hockey table fixed! spoiled for so long already, especially the second one.

2010-04-30T11:52:00.003+08:00

yesterday was a pretty eventful day

bio quiz + bio GT3 + bio project presentation. bio quiz was pretty easy, the other classes scare people la, say until like uhh. GT3 was a bit 'huh?' though. 10 marks for... uh dunno
bio project presentation was pretty okay. I'm pretty proud of our bio project, it seems well done. to me at least, that is. I hope we get a decent grade, all of us put in a lot of effort! tricia didn't let the class see the video we took, so ms fong has to come over to the laptop to view the video whenever we wanted to show it during our presentation. hahahaa.
played this comprehension game thing for english, which in my opinion, made doing a comprehension paper much much less boring. likes ms ling! C: but cus ms ling's our teacher, we won't get her to mark our papers! and apparently, she's really lenient : / non-ms ling classes, consider yourselves lucky! ms valles marked our class's AQ and essay i think. can tell from his writing. was... meh. good english grades had never been on my side : /
oh my group together with viet an's group won for the comprehension game thing, and we got a packet of chocolates! yummeyh C: shared with the class though C:
Ms fong very poor thing, she's got lots of stuff to handle, to mark, to etc etc etc. after bio o lesson yesterday, had a little chat with her with some other bio o students after we clarified some questions with her. she has to mark and return loads of stuff, had to go through a lot of groups' bio presentations and i'm sure had to put in loads of effort setting the bio exam paper : / yesterday afternoon alone she had a whole list of groups queuing, waiting for her to watch their presentation that she didn't have time for lunch till i believe, 2 plus 3? tsk tsk :C
i feel like playing pianooooooooooo! D: pity i left ALL my scores at home! why why :O even the clarinet accompaniment parts! D:
cleaned the room, then went out with weijin and tpl to get rion's birthday cake from wcp! swiss bake cakes > bengawan solo and oishii bakery cakes! more pricey though :/ bought muffins from oishii bakery too, i just couldn't resist C:
had superhero birthday celebration for rion after dinner time. feel kinda sorry that it turned out a tad unpleasant for some people :/ welllll couldn't be helped, i guess, and yea, no one meant any harm.
my stomach was carrying out an immune response of epic proportions during study time D: so spent the entire study time lying down till roll call. tried not to fall asleep cus still had to do some last-minute reading for english exam! :C

today!

english exam! compre questions were okay, i guess. hope that they can make up for my atrocious AQ. i had a little over half an hour to do my AQ and i thought it was quite a lot of time. So i started to write a very structured introduction, and turned out i had not time to write proper arguments, so i rushed through them and ended with a very sketchy conclusion : / AQ thrown away already :O
still have got 3 exams to go, but i feel like .. uh semi-slacking already. lessons start at 1.30 today! cus lessons were pushed back for an hour and a half and we have 2 and a half our of free period before math after mentoring on normal fridays anyway PLUS mr chia is sick today, so we're not gonna have math. mmm
smsed serene asking for scoresss and she's not replying D:

2010-04-27T20:13:00.003+08:00

monica's blog's music is so nice, i don't want to close the window after i visited her blog and found that she didn't blog : /
i don't like myself for the fact that when i make bio notes i must make them perfect. like handwriting layout colours content. so i take a reaaaaaaaaally long time making them that i have no time to actually study
more specifically, i've been making bio immune system notes for the entire afternoon today, and i think i won't have time to study nervous + endocrine system for tmr's bio o quiz : /
ap mock results were satisfactory C: a bit worried for my BC score though, cus seems like i lost most of my marks in BC questions
PE was canceled for my class today :O Dr sun didn't come for how many times this semester already?
i ate so much for dinner i feel like puking
can't can't can't wait for class chalet!
i like ms ling's lessons
it was very fun doing our bio project C: we made a video as one of the components of our workshop on botox :D was fun making the animation too C: though i sacrificed one whole afternoon + night working on it :O

just played one and a half hours of piano and am feeling very good C:
was so full from the shangrila outing today! didn't eat much 'real' food though, mostly deserts like cake, sorbet, chocolate-related stuff and more cake.
quite interesting, siying tricia elza adeline seoyong (sp? i should find out how to spell her name properly -_-) and I were play truth or dare and i had never to cure boredom + to finish any food that we couldn't normally finish :/
hurray, i just found out that i have a bio o quiz next week! D:
was talking to nicholas about piano and other random stuff. i'm quite impressed how people are enthusiastic about going for diploma exams for the challenge/fun of it C:
uhh time to return to my bio textbook. feel like sleeping though.

2010-04-24T01:06:00.002+08:00

waiting for my hair to dry before going to sleep
i am finally home! C: though my house is hardly any more luxurious than hostel, it just feels different C:
went to hospital with my mum after dinner to visit my aunt, who got appendicitis :O
i learnt that being a doctor is really not an easy job after all
she visited 4 doctors in total
the first one asked her to go for a whole bunch of scans, tests and whatnot for diagnosis, and the test results would only come out in 3 days or so
meanwhile, that doctor prescribed painkillers for her
my aunt's mom's a doctor, and when my aunt described the symptoms to her mom, she gathered that it should be appendicitis and asked her to see another doctor
and some stuff here and there, and she ended up going for an operation to remove her appendix
yep this was two days ago. she consulted the first doctor four days ago
and today, the first doctor, the one who prescribed painkillers, called her to ask if she'd submitted some thingy used in one of her tests for diagnosis, when she'd already undergone the operation -________-
had she taken those painkillers, she might not have even noticed if the inflammation burns a hole through :O
okay i'm probably not making any sense, but nevermind
oh and surgeons have a tough job : /
and i just learned lots of to-dos and not to-dos when you have appendicitis :D

kay dry sleep!

2010-04-23T17:32:00.003+08:00

stuck in hostel till 7 cus i haven't got my house keys with me D:
nyahhh can't wait to go home!
idling my time away now since 2 o'clock waiting for the time to leave hostel -_- thats... 3 and a half hours
hm at least i finished my part for chem project
chem quiz was easy C: and i think we deserved it, cus the exam, apparently, is going to be very, very hard :O
had english AQ on thursday. Hmmm we were told that we only have 20 minutes or so in the real exam to finish our AQ. and AQ = crafting an entire essay with intro, argument 1 + 2 + 3 + supports and conclusion, which is crazy. we were given 45 minutes for the one yesterday, and i barely finished :O exam die le...
before the test ms ling wrote on the board: 10.36 to 11.16 and so we started doing. towards the end, she announced that we had one minute left, and by then i had barely started on my second argument! :O after that last one minute had passed, jerlin suddenly pointed out that ms ling had counted the time wrongly and it should end at 11.21 instead. to compensate for her error, she gave us an extra 3 minutes! that totally salvaged my gonecase essay, and i managed to finish C: happy C: though i didn't write well, but at least its compkete : /
i like Dr. Li! she can be really funny at times :D
i'm pretty disappointed over something. even though it's something of the past and it might seem pretty trivial a matter, it's still important to uphold the trust people put in you.
it seems like its gonna rain :O
shangrila trip tomorrow! mmmm
i really really can't wait for class chalet, should there be one!! before we slept yesterday, adeline and I were reminiscing the fun we had in chalet... can't wait can't wait!
elza finally turned off the showerhead :O she had been showering for the past one and a half hour :O
haven't swam in a loooong time, feel like swimming :/
been stuck to fearless for the past 2 days :O
the hostel caterer has been putting fishballs and meatballs onto sticks everytime i walked pass them today. and it's a lot of them, like a few huge crate-fuls :O hostel's gonna have meatballs and fishballs for dinner, supper, breakfast and lunch this whole weekend?

hmm shall sort out the stuff i need to complete

1) my part for bio project
2) bio revision, loads of it
3) chem revision paper

math ap mock is over!
was okay i guess. mcq part A was hard i think, couldn't finish and didn't know how to do a few. frqs were alright, thank goodness.
i think doing math for three hours plus straight is super draining! feeling very very tired all over
went ntuc shopping again! with half of the superheroes. spend like ~$70? we give ntuc lots of business :O
my bread is going to expire and i can't finish them. So hard to finish bread by yourself. If it was at home instead, it'd have been gone within 2 days
i need to study and do my eng+bio+chem project, but i'm too drained today D: sorry group members, i think i've been very slack for the projects, especially bio :O

i feel very sad for my mum. Can't wait for the Saturday after the following. I'm very, very sorry.
Hmm in some way or another, my cluster's bball team managed to get second :D Thanks a lot xi tong, mariel and jun yan! mehh i feel kinda bad for asking junyan to play for our cluster, cus she was still recovering from being sick. junyan mariel and I went to the basketball court at the HDB flats there to practice for the games for an hour or so before the matches. then she started to not feel well :C anyway before that we were just randomly shooting and stuff, then a few semi-pro-basketballer pri school kids approached us and asked if we wanted to have a match with them and we were like, okay lorh. it reminded me of the frisbee match at bukit panjang! xitong took junyan's place like last minute, but we still pulled it off okay-ly. ms teng is so pro!! they got first, naturally. i was so surprised when we won debra's team. i think i was kinda rough in that game, so i apologize for that :P
school is very mundane nowadays, there's hardly anything exciting/interesting/special enough that happens to let me remember a given day.
like for example, i can't recall what happened on monday, except for cca. but that doesn't count, because i only remember monday has cca because i remember the timetable says that there's cca on monday everyday
same goes for tuesday, except for that we had a very slack PE.
we were supposed to have bio o lab prac on wednesday, but some stuff got messed up somewhere and the stuff weren't prepared, so we weren't able to do. went through the quiz instead and got released early. hmm i said this a lot of times already but i just wanna say, again, that i'm really glad i took bio o C: i don't think i would have been able to survive in chem o, from the way tricia describes it :O
on tuesday si ying and adeline went shopping at ntuc! and they bought like, sixty-seven dollars plus worth of stuff. the most amusing one should be the claypot. they bought two packets of flavoured rice, and they came with a claypot, all for just $5.70 :O mm when we laid out all the stuff on the table, it looked like we were having some food party. except, of course, that shokubutsu refills can't be eaten.
hm we need more ideas for superhero birthday celebrations. lots of people are getting sick of eating cakes. like we've already ate... um 6+ cakes? i think?
oh yea, speaking of birthday, si ying and adeline got bryce a pack of sushi as his birthday present. but when we returned to the pantry, we couldn't resist and ate his present up instead!
manzz i haven't gotten a lot of people their b'day present. wahh so sorry. its like, i don't want to just buy something so as to get it over and done with. like for example, oh, i'm gonna get you a stuffed toy because its your birthday and i have to get you something cus only then it'll be appropriate, but i don't know what to get you so i shall just get something so that i know that i did not not get you something. i wanna do something like the christmas present for the 12 superheroes that kind, but can't think of what to get, plus i haven't got the time to do stuff like that :C
oh i read this status post on facebook some time back. that person posted: In nus high school, life is simple. either you get good grades, or good relations. which is kinda like what one of my friend (not named cus i'm not sure if you mind people knowing) shared. like, one want focus on one's grades but doing so takes away time that one spends with his or her friends.
kayzzz thursday! went to St. Luke's hospital with weining and monica C: they went on wednesday too, but i couldn't cus of bio o. wellll basically thursday is a cleaning day, so we'd help with cleaning stuff. Hmm i think the three of us are quite efficient :D i dunno how fast or how well others do it, but i think we finished quite a lot in the one hour and nineteen minutes that we were there! the supervisor said she'll let us do more clinical stuff if we're there for longer stretches, so i hope that can be so during the holidays! C: once again thanks weining for referring me to st. lukes... she said that day (hey actually it was only yesterday!) that in st. lukes, you are more... like, they cater to your needs more unlike say at NUH, where there are so many, many volunteers that you'd just be another of their many, many volunteers. and like the higher ups are also very busy with their stuff that they just have no time for you (JTDP ahem ahem.)
oh on our way back we each bought from a bubble tea shop. they were sooooo saccharine, i threw mine away with less then a quarter finished :{ i think i'd have gotten kidney failure if had i fnished they entire cup of liquid sugar. wait do you get kidney failure for taking in too much sugar? hmmm i need to re-study the bio elearning stuff : /
yesterday's dinner was fun. reminiscing (wah this word makes us sound so old) with siying elza adeline tricia the fun/interesting/scandalous/embarrassing stuff that happened in year 1 and 2!
rainy night yesterday, very nice to sleep.
mm i actually kinda like Dr. Li now.
小状况 over at my house just now : /
my mum's going over to bras basah to help me and siying get a new gc today. hers was dropped and it kinda spoiled. mine's very glitchy.
ohhhh ya i had just found out from tricia that pokemon is releasing a 5th generation :O i thought they'd stop after the 4th :O and its called pokemon black and white! when weijin first mentioned it on facebook, i thought he was joking -_- haven't played pokemon in a looooong time : / ever since i deleted my emulator game cus i was afraid i'll get hooked on to it :P
sheesh i have been on the same page of my chem notes for the past hour D: gotta wokr gotta work. dunno why, i find it very hard to focus this week.

2010-04-10T10:50:00.003+08:00

my waist muscles (if there's such a thing) are aching from yesterday's netball :C shows how un-fit i've become after changing cca :O not that i was very fit in the first place but still :P

i'm starting to get very worried for math. i'm currently doing what we're supposed to have finished during the march holidays, which was eons ago (i'm sure a lot of people who think they are lagging behind for math revision can get assurance from that eh?) that's such a far cry from my roommate, who'd finished the entire book already and i can say that that's pretty much equivalent to fully prepared for AP mock already.

not that i've been slacking or anything, but i've been focusing so much on bio that i haven't gotten round doing math. Dunno whether that was the right thing to do... i was just thinking that maybe i could be less stressed by the time bio o test comes round the corner by doing more bio now :P and besides i like bio much more than i like math so i'd be much happier studying bio rather than studying math :P

wahh 9 days countdown. no actually only 8 days left to study. thats like... must finish 2-3 enter papers a day? dunno. die.

going out for lunch with family later cus dad's flying off again

gonna have inter cluster bball on sunday afternoon. i've no idea how i'm going to pull that one off :O

2010-04-09T23:37:00.005+08:00

I am happy today!

and I shall make a thank you list!

my parents and grandma, thanks for taking time out to come for speech day :D
adeline, serene, weining, monica, weiren, lewis, thanks for going out for a uhh quarter-of-402 lunch outing! fun to talk and think about the funny/nice stuff that happened last time :D
serene, thanks for sending those awesome songs :D
adeline, for lending me so much money :P
weining, for remembering that i was looking for a hospital to volunteer at when you were looking for one, and referring me to st. luke's C: saved me loads of trouble of finding, and got me two good friends to go with :D
weining and monica, for being tolerant to the ever-changing go-to-hospital-to-meet-some-staff-person time and volunteering there together! hope it'll be fruitful and fun C:
daniel, siti, and the other staff that we've met at slh, for being so friendly and easy-going, it makes us feel really at ease when we're there and stuff C:
mariel, heidi, jiayi, joanna and eugenia!!!! for being awesome cluster-netball teammates! you all really made my day! or rather, made my night :D we were so... like highly doubtful that we'll win even one game cus we were short of one person, but to think we could actually get silver :O :O good job good job!
debra! thanks for being uhhh 很有肚量. okay maybe that's not an appropriate description but thanks for cheering our team on, and giving very, really very constructive advices. we owe our win to you, in a way :D and you could have played much better, but you held back knowing that we were one man short :P
my mum, thanks for buying a cake for no reason. she always does that, buying cakes on no occasions days. and for coming to fetch me from the mrt cus it was super late and super dark by the time i went home.

kayyyy!

shall sleep!

hope i get to dream C:

sometimes i wish i lived in my dreams, like you know, live two lives, one here, another in the dreams, so its like when you sleep, you wake up in your dreams and when you sleep in your dreams, you wake up in real life

2010-04-04T16:46:00.002+08:00

I owe lots of things
I owe adeline money
I owe si ying money
I owe a lot of people birthday presents : /
I owe weijin and weining piano lessons
I owe myself bio and math revision
I owe my parents household chores

2010-04-01T19:03:00.001+08:00

phewww

i've been so busy the past few days that i didn't even turn on my computer.
i've been thinking of not bringing my comp back on weekends so i'm rid of my biggest source of distraction : / but hasn't been working out so far :O
so...
past week and a half was very eventful!
sad that me and si ying didnt get to go for the shell science fair! :C
i like 506!
yawen brought it up and we signed up for talent search, kinda on impulse :D
and...
it was quite hard for us to decide on what to do for the auditions, but in the end we settled for a live MV for you belong with me by taylor swift! plus dancing and singing and acting and violin :D
rehearsals are fun fun fun C:
the two girl roles in the mv were taken on by guys, john and alexius! very amusing to watch them act. heh heh
but feedback from judges and mr lee was that we'd have to let real girls act as girls, if not it would portray a.. ahem
oh and we got through the auditions of course!
dancing was a but dizzy for the girls, just keep spinning and spinning :D
i really like 506 in that (almost) everyone cooperates and are enthu in participating and stuff, and it doesn't seem like anyone feels like they are forced to do the stuff and everyone enjoys themselves (wah english fail)
oh speaking of english, i'm glad that i did fairly well for my eng compre summative! :D hopefully that makes up for the atrocious essay that i wrote for summative...
reaaaally looking forward to end of exams! and our semifinals! :D
napfa was uhhh bad? not surprised though, since i haven't been exercising as much this year after i changed cca.
i wonder what we are doing for pe next term
congrats to book prize winners!
i don't understand how i got bio, especially when i got A- for evolution : / and i know quite a lot of people who got A : /
i hope my hospital attachment goes smoothly!
plethora of tests and quizes D: they just keep coming
celebrated march superheroes' birthdays last week too! or was it this week? getting really mixed up with time and things, cus so much happened within the week
had march cluster celebration on tuesday! ordered in KFC. bought cakes for langfan and seoyong (sp? : /) oh i think seoyong (sp? : /) is pro, she takes like 4 honours, 3 olympiads, runs everyday (everyday!), prepares her own healthy breakfast/lunch/dinner frequently and... i can't remember her cca, but its one that'd take up quite a bit of your time. i wonder how she time manage :O pro, pro
oh yes, it's april already! that's a quarter into the year! time seems to pass really fast, and seems so pass really slowly at the same time. uhm that didn't make sense, but yea.
and happy birthday to yanling!
ms cheng always seem to check our room's cleanliness at the wrong time. the wrong time meaning, she checks our room the day before the day we scheduled to clean the room. we used to put our cleaning day on thursday, and she just happens to put her 'checking time' on wednesday. so there's this week where we decided to clean our room on wednesday for a change, and on that very week she checked on tuesday! And last week, on the day she checked our room, i don't remember what we were doing, but adeline and I were very busy. i think we just rushed back in time for study roll call from ntuc or something and we are very preoccupied with stuff such that we didn't put our shoes and slippers onto the shoe rack. so when she came to check, she reminded/reprimanded us that the footwear should go onto the rack. we actually do keep them on the rack, that day was one of the only few exceptions :O yupp and there's yesterday, where we packed the room till its reaaaaally neat cus we expected she'd come. like usually during study time, our notes would be sprawled all over the table. but yesterday, the notes were in a tidy stack, everything along the stretch of the table was arranged, the floor was spick and span, the toilet rolls were neatly stacked up on the shelf, i even folded my blanket (i don't have the habit of making the bed. like i don't get the point of doing it, since you don't ever look at the bed in the day and at night when you're on the bed, the blanket isn't meant to be folded) and of course, the shoes were on the shoerack. but alas! she didn't come to check.
i'm getting sick of HL milk. shall switch brand next time round.
was talking to elza about her class and her mentor. her class really seems like quite a fun class, and her mentor seems really funny. like how he was leaning casually against the whiteboard, unaware that the marker he was holding was drawing against his shirt. and there's another time when he was frustrated/exasperated that his class kept asking him chem questions when the stuff can be found in the notes. on that day, weining was asking him lots of questions and he was (meticulously) explaining them on the board and writing and writing and writing until finally, he turns around and says timidly 'can i go now?' okay at least the way elza describe it to me was like that and it was super hilarious! :D not a very good idea to talk about funny stuff when your brushing your teeth though :P
hm dinner time. got lots of other stuff, but i'll leave it till next time, if that time ever comes!

2010-03-23T21:05:00.002+08:00

Free cone day!
506 went vivo for free ben & jerry's :D
met at 5 but left at 5.30
502 went before PE, and 503 was going at the same time as us! no actually they left earlier, and were laughing that they're going to queue earlier than us
walked to the back gate bus stop only to see 963 leaving! we were going to continue to cross the overhead bridge anyway until pan made an intelligent reasoning: 196 just left the busstop, but there're still a lot of people at the busstop. means 188 hasn't come for a long time and it should come anytime soon :D yep so we took 188
talked along the way, attempted to settle what we're going to put up for talent search auditions but as always, these kind of discussions never work out :/
finally reached vivo, gerlynn called yanling to say that the queue was like one round round the shopping center plus one round round the outdoor playground. we almost decided not to queue afterall, but went up to check the queue out anyway. then some started to queue so we all started to queue.
ben and jerry's quite smart, they gave us crossword puzzles to do when we're queuing. like after you complete it you can submit it for a chance to win 100 pints of ice-cream :D
not too bad la, queued for like 35 minutes before we reached the shop itself ! :D mmm
took photos outside the shop too! the security guard was kinda pissed at us. whoops.
oh in the end 503 didn't queue before us, they saw that the queue was so long and went to eat dinner instead. oh but heidi told me afterwards that they queued after dinner instead haha
went to kopitiam for dinner. some, including me, didn't eat though, cus already packed dinner in hostel.
ice-cream is quite filling
they say the new cookie affair flavour is super sweet and not recommended :/
i took the mango one
wah i'm like stalling for time. don't want to study. xinyuan is lazy this year.
oh yea. i can't do pullups for nuts this year, and it seems like all the girls in my class are having difficulties too. like a lot of us can barely reach 10. they say is cus of the pullup bar, they changed it such that the gray bar is very close to the black bar horizontally, so... ah nvm, hard to explain. i think i'll fail pull ups this year :O
and my stamina is like rock bottom too. super tired after running just 4 rounds : /
kay shall try to focus on math/chem now. it seems like i have been doing nothing but math and math and math and chem and chem and math this year -__-

2010-03-22T23:01:00.002+08:00

so the fire alarm rang again, at 3am, last night.
i ... sort of heard it. i forgot that i actually heard the announcement lady until this morning during breakfast when tpl was talking about the fire alarm last night. i thought i dreamed it up or something, like heard it subconsciously.
i think there was never a time in nushswhere i was more slack than i am now -_- okay maybe excluding year 1. just don't have the motivation to study. my typical attempt at studying goes like this:

take out notes
sort out nicely which are the ones that i plan to study
press the power button on the laptop
random around and eat chocolates or something while waiting for the comp to start up
check: hotmail, school email, facebook, friend's blog
put on earplugs
play music
start to do work
while half the time actually listening to the music
the other quarter of the time doodling
the other one-eigth of the time falling asleep

yupp. kay maybe the time allocation is a bit exaggerated. but see steps 1 to 7 easily takes up half an hour -_-
the following weeks are like jam packed with school work, project, quizzes, tests and exams. gotta buck up! D:
oh and i'm so not looking forward to napfa next week. i think i can barely do sit-ups, haven't tried in ages -_- and my 2.4 timing is like a far cry from the one i had last year :C
kay, shall talk about today. the dialogue session with dr vivian balakrishnan (sp?) was more interesting than expected. and our school students are pretty eager to raise questions :D like toward the end when annabeth said 'time is running short, so can we have one final question?' or something like that, about 4 to 5 hands shot up :O well the minister addressed them all in the end, and dragged almost 45 minutes into our CCA :/
speaking of cca, we're supposed to join the UOB painting competition. and i have no idea of what to draw, at all. i don't like it when we're expected to think up of something profound, something abstract, deep, meaningful, insightful, enlightening, mature, whatever. i'd just like to paint what i like :/
if only time would stop. secondary school life is flying by too quickly.

2010-03-20T23:37:00.002+08:00

Another blink of an eye

cycling in the rainnn !
that's pretty much what the 402 outing yesterday was about. well i don't think it can be considered a class outing, cus only one fifth of the class turned up. nevertheless, it was still pretty fun!
it was weining's second time riding a bike, so we rode slower to keep up with her. I think she's pretty good actually, to be able to ride like this when its only her second time! my second time on a bike was... still with training wheels -_-
she stopped quite a lot at first and had some difficulty starting again each time she stopped, and she'd go zig-zag zig-zag, wobble, and stop :D but on our way back, she didnt stop at all and rode about as fast as the rest of us :D clap clap clap clap.
yea we were heading towards the changi direction when it started raining... and got pretty heavy too, so we chionged to the nearest shelter and camped.
when it got lighter, we continued chionging and chionging, and despite the rain getting pretty heavy again we didn't stop ... until we got all soaked from head to toe, thats when we stopped at another shelter.
they should have windscreen wipers on glasses. so when you're riding a bike in the rain you can still see clearly
when we reached the bike stand, we still had 1 hour out of our 3 hours to spare, so we started cycling in the other direction, despite the rain :D we reached the end pretty fast, cus the road was blocked off, apparently by the ironman competition?
on the way back the wind was so strong and so cold, its like blowing us backwards and it was actually very taxing on the legs to cycle!
yepp.. we all looked like we'd just stepped out of a pool when we returned the bikes and finally reached macs. i drank two cups of hot milo! mmm its warm when you simply put your face next to the cup :D
freezing on the bus and mrt on our way back! we all didn't bring jackets -_-
oh yea, yesterday morning after i just woke up, i turned on my phone and received a message. it was from some unknown person and the message goes: 'Attention attention! Addidas original factory outlet @ novena velocity is having a promotion until 28 of this month, all items are having a further discount of 30% ... ' the message was pretty long and i stopped reading, cus i assumed it's just another one of those smses promoting stuff. like there are other occasions where i get smses from jewelery promoters.
then...
on the mrt weining was presenting her new blue addidas bag and like hinting to me, but i didn't get it, and she was like 'didn't you receive my message?' and i was thinking, no? turned out that cus my phone was just turned on, the contacts hadn't loaded yet so the sms didn't display the sender's name, just the phone number, which i couldn't recognize. weining very cut-off to be a promotor huh :D

went to catch alice in wonderland today! they're mmm free tickets given out by the parent groups thing in our school. limited to 60. yepp so i went with my parents. saw quite a few people i knew there too.
hm the movie is ... okay i guess. the storyline is quite predictable, but still quite interesting. well, how boring can a wonderland get?
i ate a lot today!
first went to this seafood restaurant with relatives during lunchtime to celebrate my grandma's birthday. it's not today actually, but we don't get much chances to get together, especially when my dad and uncle are constantly flying around.
and bought lots of stuff from petit provence after the movie. i like the food from provence C: use to buy from it a lot last time, from the one in holland v
12am, shall go to bed C:

2010-03-18T18:58:00.002+08:00

dunno why i feel very tired these few days. mm i think i'm falling sick
hope hope hope hope it doesn't rain tomorrow! but the weather forecast says it would. hope weather forecast is wrong!
painting workshop today. mm okay la. we're supposed to start on UOB next week. NEXT WEEK! that's like in friday saturday sunday monday 4 days time! got no idea whatsoever.
contagious just started playing on windows media player, and i was wondering why the drums in the intro were a bit weird. then i realized it was not contagious, but high school never ends! they sound really kinda similar for the first part : /

2010-03-17T22:57:00.002+08:00

there are just some times where whoosh! the day is gone, and you really don't know what happened to the time or what you have been doing
monday: BAW talk. first part a bit boring, but became more interesting later on. mm don't regret going!
tuesday: JTDP closing ceremony + prize presentation. quite a lot of students from our school won awards! and they're so nice to give each student a trophy (for those who got distinction, that is.) oh and i'm really impressed at the NJC girl's presentation. she's really good! :O
today: nothing much.
i really felt like kicking myself for not joining ssef this year : / its partially our fault for being too lazy, and partially chance's fault that the administration papers went missing. but anyway, there's this shell science fair thingy that's sort of like ssef, so me and si ying decided to join. mm hope it goes well and makes up for ssef? : /
was bored today and was reading some of the posts i made a years back, and came across this one i made just 2 weeks into being in m08302:

eeps looks like i just cant keep up with updating my blog. january 08 is such a screwed up week. lookie there: class shuffling, flunked math quiz, flunked chem quiz, almost-no-free-time everyday due to netball comp, netball training, NEA stuff, etc etc etc. gahh.

i shall do the i-miss thingy that si ying did in her blog:
i miss 04's jungle classroom
i miss elza's laughs and tickles
i miss sitting at the back of the class with tricia and not-paying-attention away
i miss group projects where the four of us forever work together
i miss rushing to lab lessons together as a class
i miss 12 superheroes
i miss gathering at the foyer before morn assembly and chionging homework
i miss rushing down for flag raising together when the whole class is late
i miss yq's *slams hand on table* "CLASS STAND!"
i miss kevin's class interuptions (ok not exactly i miss, just that im not use to not hearing them)
i miss the girls squeezing together at the small round table during breaks
i miss mr yee's lessons and his neat handwriting
i miss free periods where we slack and draw on the whiteboard and make videos and play at fitness corner and eat chipsters
sigh i wanna go back to 204

but come to think of it 302 is nice too

serene is so much like my close primary school friend yiann! :D
weining monica yawen and shaoxuan are nice too (hm i think i already said this in my previous post). (weining so hyperactive :D)
michelle and weilin...dont really know them yet but they seem nice
keat mun is interesting
thu is funny. (two toe two how to pronounce his name?)
weiren's my brother! :D

should have done one about 402

first of all, happy exchange to beijing for the beijing exchange people !
and others who are going on a holiday !
SSEF was mmm... our school sent 20% of the projects, but heard that got like the least number of awards : / wellllll, grats to bryce for his gold ! As expected actually :D he deserved it, cus seems like he'd really put loads of effort in it :O
went to suntec convention center on thurs right after ssef for the IT show. a lot of people, as always :O bought a new phone, speakers and tv :D oh oh they give people this metal pull along trolley thing for free with every tv :O
went to holland v crystal jade with my parents for dinner C: miss holland v a lot :C
yesterday was house carnival. okay la, was referee for yr 6 captain's ball : /
it was kinda messy, like what debra said, it may have been better if they umpired their own game and kept score for their own game : /
it was very extremely immensely incredibly exceedingly tremendously hard to stay awake during chem make up lesson D:
UK fair right after that. i think its kinda scary that some people actually has loads of stuff to ask them and can stand at their booth and talk for a really long time :O okay not scary, just that it's like, i haven't even got at least a bit of a defined path that i'm going to take after i leave nushs : /
506 outing afterwards!!
16 people came ! and thats excluding mag and adeline, who i suppose would have come if not for their beijing trip tmr/netball training. i like the people in 506 C: heh i think i said that a lot of times already :D
our outing lasted from like before 4 to after 9, which is about 5+ hours. but out of which, i think we spend close 2 hours just deciding what to do :O
was supposed to gather at 3.45, but due to thinking of where to go and what to do + waiting for people +more thinking of where to go and what to do, we left only at like 4.30
we thought of like what seemed like all the places one could possibly go to in singapore. kay not really, but it was really a lot. dhouby gaut, clarke quay, haw par villa, zoo, sentosa, the metal bridge thing at near river valley, laser quest, bowling, someone's house, vivo, movie, buffet dinner, reverse bungee jumping, etc etc etc
well decided on vivo + movies in the end
john said next time we should set up a class outing committee to plan and gather feedback like writing a 2 page report on outing reflections :O :D
so alas, we reached vivo!
and headed over to gv!
and now comes the problem of deciding what to watch!
alice, green zone, nodame, yona yona penguin, LOL, or some watch alice some watch green zone some watch nodama :O
after discussing for a loooong time again, we decided not to watch anything cus alice only had the first row left. xitong anqi and junyan bought tickets for nodame though, cus they wanted to watch C: so we just directly went to eat
and...
now comes the problem of deciding what to eat !
to make things easier, we decided to let the birthday girl-to-be tricia make the decision
went to the directory and she randomly picked this cafe called white dog cafe. then can't remember what happened, it changed to fish and co instead, so we went to the roof to find fish and co, but only to find that vivo did not have fish and co -_-
after standing around and discussing again, we decided to go thai express. oh ya i remember now, it was cus white dog cafe didn't have enough space to accommodate all of us :O
oh yea, mr lee joined us too, and yep so we ate. for some reason, it seems like people tend to automatically sit in a way that guys are in one row and girls are in the opposite row. remember it was like that during 402's swensens outing, and it was like this this time too! :P
jer lin helped buy a slice of cake for tricia :D
and ... came the problem of what to do after that!
went up to gv again to see if we might watch another movie, but all the movies were left with the first row -_-
after some discussion as always, we went to the rooftop.
mm laser quest with water guns would have been... interesting
was deciding between werewolf or truth or dare
ben brought werewolf cards, so we decided to play werewolf! apparently he always bring around his pack of werewolf cards, like tricia said 'always be prepared for a game of werewolf!'
our class forever takes forever to make a decision. same goes to deciding who to kill off in the morning :P
i think our class people are really super smart, like they can reason very well. especially ben luhh, like he can say stuff to manipulate all of our thinking :O
played until dark, and went back indoors to decide what to do afterward. john bought icecream, pan starbucks, then stood around and chatted for a bit and went back : /
totally whacked after i went back. was planning to complete my eng journal (i had planned to complete my english journal for many times already) but ended up not completing again.
mm i'm planning to complete my eng journal today! for real!

oh and i think mos burger is nice!

had my first piano lesson this year, but this time i'm the teacher C: taught weijin minuet in G -_-
adeline is funny. ''markovnikoff sounds like 'mark cough nil cough' "
she named her duck trolley
now she's giving her duck an IUPAC name. its 2-tail-cyclobuthead
research congress was zzz. our group was like one of the very last to be graded, so we stayed till like 7 plus. judges quite poor thing actually, they have to keep walking around and keep paying attention to people presenting for like full 3 hours +
i hoped the fire alarm would go off during our english summative today -_- but it didn't, of course. apparently its gonna be next monday. oh and i heard tmr's chem quiz is hard. like even people like bryce and tpl and shoun couldn't do it :O
i'm starting to move into permanent-slacking mode. classes ended at 12 today, but all i did from 12pm to now 12 am is like study for chem quiz briefly : /
happy birthday to debra, tricia and taiyu in advance!
hostel actually gives each cluster fruits, so nice.
shall go draw :D

2010-03-02T21:12:00.002+08:00

But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew, you never knew

painting was fun. No actually i have to admit would have been kinda boring, but i like painting, so no matter how boring it is i think i'll still like it.
the instructor was ... mm dunno how to describe
i feel like sleeping whenever i look down at my notes to study, and feel wide awake whenever i look up to look at the computer screen
our JTDP poster is nice and colourful!
napfa in a month's time :O
i'm quite worried about english summative :P i think i won't do well : / cus i have always not done well -_-
hope fire drill occurs during our english summative muahahha
the sorry sorry song tune is stuck in my head :O

2010-03-01T13:45:00.003+08:00

Get up and go
Take a chance and be strong
Or you could spend your whole life holding on
Don't look back, just go
Take a breath, move along
Or you could spend your whole life holding on
You could spend your whole life holding on

i really have a ten-fold increase in my tendency to slack when i'm at home
watched titanic on saturday C:
phys test today, lost 4 marks already D:
went to bed at 12 + last night, but ended up chatting with adeline for 1+ hour so we slept at like 1.30am.
barely and hour after that the fire alarm rang -___- i woke up like immediately cus i was sleeping very lightly and we were both like 'what the heck?'
went out of the room and strolled down the corridor a bit, just to check. quite a number of people also came out of their room, can see them leaning against the railing across the block
the pre-recorded announcement lady went on and on and on 'the fire alarm has been sounded, plase remain calm etc etc etc' for a lot of times before going off. and the real announcement came (like what seemed to be 15 minutes later), saying that it was a false alarm -___-
i would have been less pissed if it was a real fire drill/real fire. at least we wouldn't have woken up for nothing ;P
sooo.... super sleepy today -_-
cca later, painting workshop. adeline keeps complaining about how she was forced to take something she doesn't even like : /

2010-02-26T22:17:00.000+08:00

mariel's posts really crack me up :D like the way she talks about stuff

- Walking down to the canteen with Ivan before I met my dad-

Me: Hello Daddy
Daddy: Who's that boy! Why talk to boy!
Me: GOT GIRLFRIEND ALREADY LUH
Daddy: Don't talk to ah boy ah!

Me: Bye Daddy
Daddy: Don't talk so much to ah boy ah!

Wah crazy one leh! Whole day damn paranoid about me ending up in a relationship HAHA. But he was joking luh. It was just funny. I miss home alot!!!!

2010-02-26T22:12:00.001+08:00

Colors changing hue
morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand

woah quite long haven't blog
night baron: paranoia :O
running at night may not be a good way to train for 2.4 after all, cus at night its much more cooling and you feel much less tired running the same distance/speed : /
i love ms ling's lessons :D
i eat a lot when i'm home : /
oh i havent blogged about cluster outing yet right. we had $160 to spend, and we ate like $158.60 worth of food! so zun3 la, especially cus we didnt go and calculate and total up how much we'd alrd eaten plus the gst etc etc
but heidi didn't eat at all though :O no wonder she's so slim
shaoxuan's table is scaryyyy.
the amount of plates that we accumulated could have been stacked until it hits the ceiling :O
i feel very, very disorientated this year. it has got nothing to do with hostel, though
i really regret pulling out of ssef :C the laziness of me
hope we all get our first choice of NRP! keeping fingers crossed...
i'm actually looking forward to art club stuff C:
can you imagine it, we are graduating in just 22 months time! that's like... buying a one way plane ticket 4 semester breaks later ....

2010-02-23T17:46:00.003+08:00

Walking through a dream, I see you
My light in darkness, breathing hope of new life
Now I live through you and you through me, enchanting
I pray in my heart that this dream never ends

meant to be posted yesterday, but there was a hostel-wide internet disconnection while i was typing halfway
yesterday and today were slackkkkk. I find myself much more slack this year, like just don't feel like doing work : /
Math graded task was easeyhh :D hope this friday's test will be too!
oh oh but today's english compre summative was pretty hard :C
And PE just now was exhausting : / though we only did three rounds, and they were separate some more :/
Dr Sun took our height and weight again, even though mr sim did it for us already like ages ago this year. wellll same weight as mr sim's time, but i grew 0.5 cm from that time! have you ever tried measuring your height right after you wake up in the morning? when i lived in holland v i used to have this portion of wall allocated for me to measure my height and then a line would be drawn and dated. from like 1999 all the way to 2009 :O yea so there's one column for the 'normal' height and another column for those taken right after i wake up. you'd be like 2.5 cm taller in the morning than if you take later in the day :D i guess its cus after you walk around your joints gets compressed? anyway, i slept for about 2 hours before PE today, maybe thats why i'm 0.5 taller in less than 6 weeks :O
have a bio o quiz later, but totally don't feel like studying
3B cluster outing later at Sakae!! :D :D mmm $1 per plate of sushi C: and we have $180 to spend C:
Xi'an people left already :O didn't know, so sad for them, it was less than a week : /
JTDP is overrrrrrrrrrr. have i already mentioned? haah

2010-02-21T21:48:00.002+08:00

'Cause all the roads, they lead to where you are
And all the streetlights shine like they were stars
That's where you are

back in hostel, was barely out of hostel for a day. this time it felt as if the time spent at home is really long for some reason though
slept very late last night, but don't know why i woke up at 7 plus today :O went back to sleep after feeling bored, and got woken up by the drums of a lion dance going on just 2 floors up. super loud luhh
i love my parent's cooking
my house internet connection just got upgraded. its like so shuang, compared to what we have here in hostel :C had to try several times to even get connected, have to refresh pages for a few times before a successful load comes up, and got dced from msn quite a few times too :C
wasted my weekend away slacking, as usual
except that the jtdp poster is finished ! C:
have to chiong work now :C suddenly realized i got quite a lot to do

study chem! barely following lessons : /
study math too :C
got graded task tmr
bio quiz on wed
chem worksheet
IGR
eng journal

pfft

2010-02-20T20:28:00.003+08:00

ohh just read mariel's blog, and i liked yesterday's picture thing she always put at the start of her posts

Piglet: "how do you spell love?"

Pooh: "you don't spell it, you feel it."

2010-02-20T20:16:00.002+08:00

first time staying in hostel on a saturday
woke up at around 6 plus 7, cus of the light coming through the window. for some reason, i got very sensitive to light after i moved into hostel. like for example i can't sleep if adeline's laptop is on, and if the toilet light turns on i'll wake up. adeline also woke up cus of the light, and thought we were late for school oO
SLI rehearsal was okay i guess, less boring than last year i think. I think i remembered that last year i felt like sleeping when sitting in the audi.
1! 2! stand; 1! 2! turn; 1! 2! bow; 1! 2! turn; 1! 2! sit :D
my brother keeps bullying me. and adeline, some friend D:
SLI dance was kinda weird. the dance itself is okay i guess, but it doesn't really match with something like SLI
oh i think thu dances well!
when yawen first had facebook, i tried searching for her name to add her as a friend, and i sent a friend request to a wrong zheng yawen. that person kinda daoed my request, but today that person accepted! :O it's some random chinese guy, and now his friend is adding me as a friend when i don't even know them -_-
in the slacking mood : / i hate my habit of leaving everything to the last minute before doing them

2010-02-19T22:24:00.002+08:00

feels accomplished :D
ran 5 rounds plus 1 and a half round round the school C:
with a break in between the track and the school, of course : /
tried running with music for the first time
it really does help :D
the only downside is that my earplugs get sweaty D:
well kinda

met shaoxuan and huanrong while running!
they were walking around the track at a really slow pace
i was on my 4th round and i met them at the 350m mark.
when i was on my 5th round i met them 100 meters ahead of where i last met them :O
listening and singing to chinese songs :D

saw monica and some other people doing some stuff in the concourse and laughing a lot

oh and there are even people doing conditioning at this time at night :O saw them at the fitness corner when running round the school.

and basketball too

wonder when we'll get a chance to play netball at night

uphill part superr tiring : / second round i cheated and ran through the school instead

why am i describing what i saw in the past half an hour in so much detail? -_-
killing time i suppose, the much dreaded math test over liao :D

saw christopher waiting at the bus stop, his bus took super long to come luhh, i passed second time he still sitting there

i wonder how our school locks the magnetic gates at night. saw the security guard tapping the gate tonight but not going out. maybe that's how they do it

k go bathe, if not i won't make it back in time for roll call

2010-02-19T15:49:00.003+08:00

fridayyyyy
there was a whole lot of work just few days ago, but now its like so free :D
kayy so making up for the past few days...

Tuesday: i thought i'd not be going anywhere so i could concentrate on doing chem assignment, math and stuff, but ended up we had to go out with relatives : / so there went my study time, but nevermind, got to eat good food C:
wendesday: started to chiong studying for math test.... screwed up my graded tasks big time, like C+ grade kind. so must must must study hard for the tests/remaining graded task. seems like teachers got nothing to teach us for bio o, they just go through the modules very briefly each lesson, like finish one entire module in two hours kind. might as well give us 2 hours free period to revise on our own :D
thursday: took tuesday's timetable. PE was exhausting, i think i put on a lot of weight over the cny break cus i feel so much heavier running D: must start running regularly from next week onwards. played captain's ball after running, part of 06 versus some non-06 people, mostly 02 people waiting for their pe slot. very funneyhh :D but 402 captain's ball still the best, can laugh until stomach pain :O free periods = mug math like crazy
turned out math test was EASY. which is kinda surprising, since i've been almost failing all my math honours stuff, which made me so wanna drop it once and for all. hm after today, i've decided not to :D registered for AP BC math already some more. must persevere!!!
tricia dropped math honours though. :P
OH OH OH OH and our JTDP project got DISTINCTION! so did mariel/germaine's and jiaqings! :D :D grats to all! woah, really a surprize mannzz, it was done so late-minute :O now i have a twinge of regret for pulling out of ssef :P i hate regretting stuff that i did/didn't do
weiren sent me this puzzle game thing, pretty fun :D reminds me of the crimson room thing that we played a looong time ago.
actually i shall start running from today! gonna run later on
staying in hostel for the first time on a friday night today : / cus there's SLI rehearsal tmr, so its quite ma fan to go home tonight and come back to school tmr morning and go back home again tmr night.

2010-02-15T23:17:00.003+08:00

i liked my dreams on the past few nights C: maybe comfy beds produce better dreams C:
talking about dreams, so many of my friends got violent dreams. okay actually it's just two. siying dreamed of someone committing suicide right in front of her, and bryce dreamt that someone shot a bullet through his shoulder :O
nothing much on cu xi ye, just had nian ye fan and stuff
watched a lot of lu chen's magic tricks over these few days, the tv keeps showing. they're really... unbelievable. If you watch them you'll see why
went chinese garden with my family yesterday, then went to catch a movie and ate pizza. wah i really ate a lot over the holidays... must run run run run off all the food when school starts
i like it when the wind blows through my window and i'm sitting right in front of it. very shuang
i havent dont ANY work these few days! and i'm going out for lunch with my relatives tmr :O ahh how to catch up? D:
went rion's house with adeline siying tpl today, he's got this gathering with his relatives today and his dad asked him to invite some friends over
met siying in clementi at 4, then we wandered around clementi while waiting for tpl
tpl wore like this shirt and black pants plus belt and boots, its like he's going to work :O
mrt rides seem so short when you're playing games. was playing this bubble uhh something game on her phone. there was this level where the bubbles are arranged in a hexagon, we spent our whole journey back playing that game, and still couldn't pass that level : /
it was super awkward at first when we arrived, cus its like everybody else are his relatives and like we dont know all of them and they don't know us either
went up to his room, which is on the 3rd floor :O feels weird to have stairs in your house, the last time i had stairs in my house was like more than 10 years ago
rion's room is so scary, there are 3 big screens staring back at you, and is it seven? seven steroes. and a whole lot of wires draping along the wall. siying said if you pull down the blinds and all, it'd look like some mad scientist's room.

tpl: i want to go to the toilet, where is it?
rion: (points)
tpl: (walks towards the humongous wardrobe, which is facing the toilet and attempts to open the sliding door)
rion: no!, the one beside it
tpl: (stops and starts to open the other sliding door of the wardrobe)

played carrom, which hurt everyone's fingers. adeline super pro luhh, she wasn't aiming on almost all her shots, and there was once where she anyhow flicked and it hit this puck, which flipped up and rolled on the side along the edge of half the board and ended up in the hole on the opposite corner :O
annoying orange is amusing. youtube it.
rion's brother is amusing too.
buried her deep inside, stars stuck in my eyes
played game of life afterwards, my first time playing it : /
mm suddenly don't feel like blogging, shall end here

(referring to what the 'LIFE' cards do)

what's life anyway?

2010-02-12T19:46:00.003+08:00

today's a good day!

stayed up till late drawing in my 12 superheroes sketchbook last nightC: actually, i planned to sleep when adeline sleep, cus she was using the comp. and neither of us seemed to be going to sleep anytime soon until adeline finally asked me when i was going to sleep. turned out that adeline was waiting for me to sleep then she'll sleep, and i was waiting for her to sleep then i'll sleep! :D
bryce very random, suddenly suggested that we go clementi central to buy supper at 9.30pm :O would be kinda new actually, since we can only get a chance to do stuff like this now that we're living in the hostel C: but we didn't go in the end, cus some people couldn't make it, some didnt want and drag drag then finally no time to make it back by roll call. wellll some other day?
i shall make running a habit
adeline very kua zhang, she'd screaaaaaammmmmm, hop out of her bed and dash out of the room when a moth happens to fly in her way. mm
went to music room today to practice the spirited away song C:
finished ms cheng's cny card from our cluster C:
i love boys like girls
our class won cny class decoration :D as expected, heh :D cus our class and 505 were like the only two classes in our level that actually really made an effort to decorate. shall post some pictures someday :D really proud of our class deco! 506 is a nice class C: glad that i'd be in nice classes for all my 6 years C:
today can wear anything to school, some guys in our level went to purposely wear all black. oO
this year's chinese new year concert not bad. i liked the cross talk, very funny :D
lots of stuff to carry back today
2 weeks ago, elza put this box of plums in the pantry fridge and kinda forgot about it, so she didn't eat them. last weekend, her dad asked he how were the fruits, and she was like oh i forgot to eat them, shall bring back next week. but today when she opened the fridge turned out that there were only 3 plums left! hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
just came back from ntuc with my parents. super crowded la there, even thought its already 11+ pm. bought lots of junk food. man gonna turn fattt
kay saving the most significant thing that happened today for the last C:
went to SEOUL GARDEN with (half of) 402 today!
michael was wearing this pair of humongous headphones the whole day :O there was this time when we were waiting for the mrt to come where he was humming and swaying to the music, and weiren was like "SHHHH!" for us to hush and listen to michael :D
seems like serene really like boys like girls too! kept singing with her today! a-a-a-i'm feeling sick girl, you're so contagious! (listening now :D)
weining, we must all be considerate cus its too bad you got such a huge present! :D (inside joke C: )
played this game called dairy dash with yawen while waiting for people to meet in the canteen today. uhh its kinda... amusing?
lots of people in seoul garden today. we booked at 2pm, which shouldn't really be a time for a meal, but the place was still full of people :O actually, there's three groups of secondary school people (including us) there. oh one group had this person whose birthday is today, so their group sang that person a birthday song. so dunno who initiated it, but our group started singing birthday song for monica (person with closest birthdate) too! following that, the third group of students also started to sing birthday song! its like competition, heh heh
tung has very good staring skills!
is sounds awesommmme when you put two phones, one at each ear, and play the same song simultaneously! like what serene says, it sounds like a live concert! :O was playing the great escape while walking on our way back from clementi using weiren and serene's phone :D
guys were barbecuing watermelon slices
monica very funny, cus towards the end the guys were full already but still had lots of meatballs and such left, so they dumped it over at the girls' table. it looked like a lot cus it was one bowl-ful, and we had to eat them up or else they'll charge us for wasting. so monica, instead, went and take the meatballs and put them one on each random plate lying around, such that it didn't seem like we wasted much >:D
bon voyage to all those going back to their overseas homes for reunion!
mann my relatives are scattered around the world. singapore, china, america, japan, england, australia....

cus just one sip (oh yeah!), would make me sick~~

2010-02-11T20:51:00.001+08:00

wednesday: 3 quiz day D:
chem was the hardest one for day day, i didnt have time to finish the bonus question : / but its a bonus, so uhh. Math was easy. Which feels kinda weird cus math had been like come-out-of-a-quiz-feeling-super-sianned-cus-you-can't-do-any-question kind this semester. bio o was okay, easier than expected. i like bio o! reaaaally glad i took it. Bio>every other subject.
ran 5 rounds yesterday with 4 other superheroes C: okay it was not with them, the only one i actually ran with was tricia, but taiyu bryce tpl were there too C: i'm starting to not hate running so much. in fact, i feel kinda good after running. not during the run or right after the run though, at those times very tiring D: but after the run its like air gets into your lungs more easily, very shuang :D not to mention sense of accomplishment and negating the sense of guily from eating too much in the day C:
today: final quiz of the week! bio :D lots of people said the quiz was hard, so prepared already haha. time was quite tight, but managed to finish C: i like ms fong, she makes lessons so much bearable :D ms ling's good too, at least i feel that i learn something in english haha.
tricia's write up for our class deco is very uh. interesting to read? very imaginative
totally slacked off after lessons ended today! cus tmr no lessons + thursday end early + cny follows!
went clementi central with adeline siying weijin for lunch
dropped by home first, talked with my dad C:
i can't stop once i start eating the cny goodies at home!
have i mentioned? spirited away is a really good movie!
once of its background music's nice too! adeline got me the sheet music, gonna practice over cny C:
cleaned the room today, and it took us like 2-3 hours, cus me and adeline and rest were giving and guessing riddles at the same time :D
i find myself listening to boys like girls a lot
went to music room after dinner. forgot all the drum beats serene taught me ! D:
my sight-reading is so lousy, i ought to do something about it
finally get the time to draw !
looking forward to tomorrow! of only everyday was like today and tomorrow, and the following 4 days. in other words, out of 6 days in a week, 4 days stay at home and slack/play/etc, 2 days in school and out of the 3, one day is like cny celebration kind, the other is go to school for bio and english lessons :D
going to in 15 min time with tricia C:

2010-02-09T19:14:00.002+08:00

506's class deco is awesommmeeee! worked on it for quite a long time today :D

402's seoul garden after cny celebs on friday! C:
i did this facebook quite a looong time ago. It's about 'when will you get married?' and my results was '3rd october 2010'. kay so i kinda forgot about that quiz until last weekend when i was reading i-weekly. they had this very big section on astrology, and apparently under scorpio for 'love', something very significant is going to happen on the 3rd of october oO i like did a double-take -_-
kay got some talk thing with ms queenie now.
so many things to look forward to!

2010-02-08T18:08:00.003+08:00

i feel like drawing :D so bought a few blank books for me to doodle in C:
saw this super cute duck nail clipper at big bookshop today! i encouraged adeline to buy it but she said no -_- its like a nail clipper in a plastic duck toy thing, and when you clip your nails, the clipped nails fall into the duck's beak :D
i kinda like physics too! well only the connecting circuits on the breadboard part
careless mistaked my math test D: mistaked just became a verb!
art club ordered rite pizza last friday. rite pizza's kinda nice, shall order from there next time C:
i eat a lot over weekends. like really a lot
went clementi central with adeline after lunch today to get chi new year deco materials. actually its more like we went there to buy food, cus we bought more food than we bought deco stuff. i bought this pokka milk tea/coffee drink thing that i saw in our pantry fridge, belonging to heidi and i thought it looked quite good. adeline bought quite a lot of frozen food :P she bought beancurd too, and while walking around in ntuc she dropped one, and its seal broke a bit : /
i got a lot of quizes to study for, but i don't feel like studying. -_- oh yea, i flunked my math graded task today, as usual.
thursday thursday thursday

2010-02-04T16:57:00.002+08:00

i like thursdays, cus bio passes fast, and english too.
i hate it when i wash my hands, and i accidentally wet my bio textbook. It gets all wrinkly
glad i chose bio o over chem o, seeing how chem o gets those hard, time consuming tutorials every week. well, bio o is very time consuming too, but at least its not a pain to study for bio o. actually bio is the subject i like studying for the most. C:
was supposed to play frisbee with 402 people today, but everyone was like very lazy, sleeping and stuff. ended up only got me, monica, serene, chris, thu and michael. so we just threw the frisbee around for a bit, discussed for friday for a bit. Then some of us went games room for a round of pool and yup. grapes from the office today were yummy!
gonna run tonight! :D after procrastinating for countless number of times
kay must must focus on work le. have a LOT to do, but slacked so much!
sorry adeline siying elza i didnt help clean the toilet today! I promise i'll clean more next week!

2010-02-03T22:48:00.003+08:00

Today's a good day, tonight's a good night! C:

had a good sleep last night, clocked 8 hours, for the very first time!
work productivity this afternoon: zero percent
started out with adeline going 'hey, there's this facebook group called 'i like fishball' !' and i replied 'i bet i can find one that says 'i like duck'.' so i used the search engine, and they gave me 'anatidaephobia', which is one of the stupidest phobias i'd ever seen. It's meaning? Having a fear that somewhere, somehow, a duck is watching you.
so me and adeline started searching for retarded phobias like ... luposlipaphobia and levophobia, and the fear of having peanut butter sticking to the top of your mouth
and that managed to throw adeline in her regular spouts of laughing spasms, which occurs like on every other day
super funny luhh, totally no mood for work le
a bee flew into our room today, it was apparently attracted to my table lamp. adeline screamed like nobody's business, flailed her file and smack, it somehow managed to hit the bee. poor bee, it was struggling and struggling. Pain. :O
celebrated joanna's birthday today!
went to the field for a PICNIC. the 12 supeheroes.
well, 12 minus 1 actually. germ wasn't in school
someone said we're the first group of students in our batch to have a picnic in school! :D:D
the wind was really strong, but we still managed to light the candles!
tricia was being teased about how she was going to 'bring germaine her share of cake back to hostel'
ooh and oishi bakery's cakes are nice :D ate three of them already :P
roll call time is so early D: we only got to picnic for less than 1 hour : /
towards the end, dunno who started it, but someone started taking others' slippers. and dunno how, it ended up with bryce holding on to siying's bottle on the tent, bryce's slippers nowhere to be found. and thus started the fight of getting bryce off the tent barefooted and snatching siying's bottle back. super funny luhh! should have taken a video of it :O bryce keeps on getting bullied haha
friday math test = die. kay not die, but i haven't really got much confidence in math this sem.
tmr -- 402 frisbeeeeeee
mann have to clean room tmr
can't wait can't wait for cny!
can't wait for more 12 superheroes gatherings!!!
can't wait can't wait can't wait

2010-02-02T20:05:00.002+08:00

sleepy to the max today, was dozing of in math D:
porridge for breakfast repeated for the second time today
everytime siying's alarm rings, elza'd wake up. everytime elza wakes up, i'd wake up cus of the light and noise from the toilet. everytime i wake up, adeline'd wake up cus of the motion stirring on the other side of the room
had jtdp presentation today. I don't know why, but i didnt feel as nervous over it as i thought i'd be. siying's very nervous though, apparently, until her stomach hurts. the butterflies must be very rowdy.
i think the judges are nice. but they fire us with quite a lot of questions, half of which we couldn't answer properly. there was one caucasian judge, he keeps winking at us during q & a oO
found a checkbook on the overheard bridge as we were heading back. if your name is balu kattaihemis (serious spelling mistake), come and claim!
went west coast plaza with siying after the presentation to eat lunch, buy joanna's birthday present and buy her birthday cake. was half dying from exhaustion on our way back, although we didn't do much.
siying took $$ from the atm machine for the first time today! kudos to me C:
thankyou weijin for the toothbrush holder! all my toiletries are yellow :D
was verrrrrrry tired when i went back to hostel, so slept all the way to PE. well i didn't sleep actually, just lied there
mr sun wasn't here again, for the third time. wonder where he went? the sun was here though, and a very bright one too. pan led us for pe, which was 2.4km (groan) and pushups and crunches. kinda happy i survived the 2.4 :P didnt manage to jog throughout though :C
finished my mastery exercises today! the most productive study period to date. the key is to not turn on the laptop, heh heh. But its just habitual for me to press that on button after i enter the room
cold wars are not fun, especially when you have to see the other person like almost 24/7. no actually 24/5. pity them, really. hope it gets worked out soon!
happy birthday xinyi!
i like the tianjin students' uniform, especially that little ribbon thingy at the front

2010-02-01T16:27:00.005+08:00

February!

Listening to steven cravis now :D millions of thanks to tricia! I'm growing to like it a lot a lot C:

I can poicture myself playing it on the piano as i listen to through the kaleidoscope C:

oops i forgot about my bullets

there!
finished JTDP powerpoint presentation slides. Pray had that everything goes well tomorrow, especially for q and a
i think jiaqing's project is quite impressive. well, at least a whole lot better than ours
math's pace is WAY TOO FAST
i kinda like organic chem
brought a tin of biscuits to hostel. byebye to dieting :P
i shall not be sad over not getting into odac again, because 1. it takes up a lot of time, which is something i do not have very much of. eh mann that's the only reason i can think of -_- nevermind
i wonder how come we haven't gotten back a single math class task : /
can't wait to get hold of my diploma cert
strawberries are yummy C:
i think our class people are all very smart, which is kinda scary
i'm apparently going to teach weijin piano, and i have no idea how to get around doing this :O
bought lots of chinese new year goodies at bengawan solo yesterday with my family. seriously, byebye dieting.
how much mag runs scares me :O
kay today's agenda:

1. ~~finish chem assignment~~
2. ~~finish english work~~
3. ~~memorize jtdp presentation stuff~~
4. revise chem

omg next week we have
1. math class task
2. bio quiz
3. chem quiz
4. bio o quiz :O :O :O
5. english summatize

thats like something for every module (except physics, which is practical, so doesn't count)

k i got upload my english article thingy.

2010-01-30T23:26:00.002+08:00

ate at sakae sushi with my family today C: spent just $20, but was super full :D
i feel happy when the songs i like starts playing when my playlist's on shuffle
i'm really satisfied that i can do the first question of math tutorial 3. i thought i'd be stumped at the very first question -_- go go go! 3 more to go!
i seem to be able to concentrate better at night
but my mum is calling me to go to sleep now :C

2010-01-29T22:58:00.002+08:00

friday = go home day!
went to a restaurant in far east square today with my family, cousin and grandparents C: mm buffet!
i wonder if adeline really took up the entire box of seaweed chicken (today's supper) as she said she would
i'm still quite upset that i didn't get into odac. Weiren mentioned yesterday about something like that out of all the people who didn't get into odac, i'm like the one who's least bothered about it. But no, its just that i don't normally announce to everyone what i think/feel each time
well, but art club seems pretty okay. the teacher's much better than what everyone puts her to be, imo.
now that i'm not in a sports cca, i must run run run run more regularly! missed the previous two scheduled runs with tricia though -_- no more excuses next time!
heard that timo, lorna, and some other person from year 5 went to blg's concert yesterday! So luckyy luhhhhh
the amount of pizza orchestra can finish shocks me :O

2010-01-28T22:35:00.001+08:00

boys like girls concert going on right now! D:

2010-01-28T20:26:00.002+08:00

first and foremost again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY SI YING AND LEWIS!

and...... I PASSED MY PIANO EXAM!!!!!!!!!!
i really can't believe that i did!
was returning to hostel after celebrating siying's birthday, and just did my study time roll call. then along the corridor, i got a message from my mum:

'I got your piano results. Guess what u got?'

I called her immediately and she insisted that i guess my score. The passing mark was 60/100, so i guessed 60 -_- turned out i got 72!!!!! safely above the passing mark. waaaaaaaaah. euphoria :D

apparently she received a letter today, saying that my results are ready for collection. so she rushed immediately over to paragon to collect them C: then center was closing at 7pm, but the nice reception lady said its okay and she could wait for a while :D i'm so surprised the results came so early, they said it'd take 3 months, so counting from 10th december, earliest should be february :D

my mum's gonna go home and help me scan over my results so i can see them now C: okay that was pretty inconsiderate of me since i'm going home tomorrow night and i can see them. But impatience just overwhelmed me :D

I think i haven't blogged about my piano stuff cus i stopped blogging at that period of time. anyway, i'd been very slack about practicing for, like the first year 3 months. Then towards the exam date after our school exams, i spammed like crazy for 2 weeks. I was so unprepared luhh, still had a gazillion mistakes. even my piano teacher was very hesitant when my mum asked her if i could pass. held this performance the day before my exam on the 9th of december at ms sylvia's house and invited friends over. monica, serene, weiren, rion, tpl. thanks a lot for coming! really appreciated it, it was at 7.15, a really inconvenient timing for everyone : /

The examination studio was really cold, and when its cold, its pretty hard to play cus your fingers get numb and stiff and hard to control and do stuff like fast notes. the examiner was really friendly! just like all the other times i took my piano exams. they had always been an elderly caucasian man for me, and they talk and smile to you like we're friends. really helps to sooth the tension all over!

anyway in my opinion, i played really badly. I don't know how well other diploma students play, but i certainly don't think my playing is good enough for performances : / so I'm like :O at my results!

wellllll

really thankful that 1 and a half years of time, money and effort was not wasted!

my parents really spent a lot of money to fund my piano-learning. like the lessons are super expensive, so are the scores. and half a year before my exam, my parents rented a super gorgeous brown upright grand for me to get a better touch. Cus the piano used for the exam's a grand, which usually has a harder touch than normal pianos. and the rent was costly too : /

i must, someday, teach/perform to pay back all the money invested in me C:

happy happy

kay time for bullets

i like thursdays
went to west coast plaza with monica weiren serene today to get a cake for lewis. and me to get a cake for si ying.
had 402 gathering in the tv room today! played scrabble and wii, mainly the mario cart game thing. Its pretty fun! had never tried before. its very amusing to see the little people constantly dropping off the tracks in the rainbow one. weiren and tony and some others are pro in it luhh. they must have played this all the time :O
lewis seems pretty happy with our present for him, a calvin and hobbes comic book C: but apparently he'd read it in the library before -_-
we should keep a supply of serviettes in our room. so we don't have to keep using facial tissue to put the cake slices to eat -_- the cream gets stuck to the paper and you end up having tissue bits in your mouth.
tried to appeal for odac today. no go.
after i bought siying's cake, i asked the drink store auntie to help me keep it in the fridge. when i went down with elza and monica at around 6.30, it turned out that some unknown person already took our cake!!! abduction of birthday cake -_- the auntie doesn't know who the person who took it was, but said it was this 'pang4 de4 nan2 sheng1'. Then i was thinking, none of the guys in the 12 superheroes is fat -_- the auntie then said he was a friend of zikai. So elza called zikai immediately, and thank goodness he picked up. Yup. We got back the cake in the end haha. Poor auntie, she must had had lots of cakes going in and out of her fridge today. Lewis's birthday cake that we got, siying's cake, a small cake that hanisah etc bought, and any other cakes? apparently there's another guy whose birthday is today too, some people sang happy birthday to him in the canteen today.
bryce is amusing
we FINALLY took a COMPLETE superhero photo today! with all 12 of us in it! i heart the 12 superheroes C:
home tomorrow! going home to a dinner at a restaurant C:
monica suggested 402 frisbee next thursday!
so looking forward to everything ahead C:

2010-01-27T19:27:00.002+08:00

204th post!

i got my second choice of cca, art club : / i really wanted to join odac! D: they should seriously expand odac, like get another teacher on top of ms lee or something so there can be 40 students in odac -_- due to that 1 teacher to 20 students thing. besides me there are like still quite a number who also put odac down and didn;t get their choice. mannn. heard htoo got into CO, which is like the most ridiculous one. wonder what the teachers were thinking !
I'm feeling sleepy like everyday : /
PE yesterday was 5 rounds round the track. Took 12 minutes, which surprised me :D i thought i'd get like what, 14? Haven't been running these days : /
mann i really want odac.
yesterday was cluster's celebration for the january babies. ie siying's birthday, cus she's the only one in our cluster who's in jan.
me and junyan went clementi central to buy a mango cake. I like junyan, she's very nice!
ordered in pizza for dinner. from spizza, which was super ex. like 20+ bucks per pizza. so only 4 pizzas were ordered, and each person could at most eat two slices. I ate only ate one though, which i'm pretty glad that i did. need to watch what i eat!
can you believe it, tricia told me that germ lost 7 kg from last year! seven! she could open a weight loss management company with that kind of effectiveness. seven! really pei4 fu2 her, clap clap clap clap clap :O
mann i really want odac!
mugged cell bio last night for bio o quiz this afternoon. And i don't think it was quite worth sacrificing my sleep for it : / cus the quiz was not as hard as i thought it'd be :D And honestly, i don't think there's much to teach us for bio o. Well, at least for certain topics. Like for example today's lesson was on cell biolody by ms lim. We all read up a lot on cell bio already before the lesson (in preparation for the quiz). So she really had nothing much to teach us, since we knew most of the basic stuff already and she was teaching the basics. stuff like homologues pair up and crossover at prophase I.
Like what tricia said, i finally am able to follow a math lesson :D
all my roommates abandoned me for dinner today! adeline's on exchange, elza went home, siying didn't want to eat : / so ate with monica and serene and ada! the three of them plus chua were watching some taiwanese drama. oh oh and monica got braces! not used to seeing her with braces heh heh. oh oh and the chicken thingy she bought from clementi city vibe is quite nice! shall go get them someday C:
mannn i want to join odac!
we're having 402 gathering tmr in the tv room C: there was one yesterday too, but i didn't go : / apparently gonna celebrate lewis's birthdat. and apparently gonna get another birthday cake. If so, i'd have eaten 4 cakes within 2 weeks! first one during the steamboat, second one yesterday during cluster gathering, 3rd one that one, and 4th one tmr, in celebration of siying's birthday with the superheroes. Hm i hope siying doesn't read my blog, its supposed to be a... surprise?
i like thursdays.
no wait i like weekends more.
nah holidays are still the best
hm nope actually i think i enjoyed myself most during schooldays last year with 402!
oh monica and i were saying that we could have another 402 chalet during the e-learning week! like it could be a 5D4N one, and we'd play for 4 days 4 nights. Then on the last day, each of us will do one assignment, and then exchange answers! mmmm
happy birthday to elza's brother!
actually, JTDP is not over yet _-_ still got oral presentation and poster to do zzzzzzzzzzzz
wah i really really want to join odac. the more i think about it the more -- i'm getting a bit whiny
we should have a 204 gathering too!
study study study. I really can't seem to focus nowadays.

try to get a sense what the math notes are talking about. It's chapter 5 already, and i'm still like dazed over what we're supposed to know in chapter 2.
when that's done, do tutorial 3
study chapter 2 and 3 for math test :O
try not to die for class task on reduction formula
revise chem
borrow an organic chem textbook
chem tutorials 1 and 2
chem assignment
that ribose question
revise campbell chapters 14, 15 and genetics notes
do physics tutorials
english journals

wah that actually quite a lot :O

2010-01-25T15:40:00.002+08:00

haven't written a note for my mortal : /
having a bad headache too D:
tricia got stomachache again
went west coast plaza for lunch with tricia. tricia had subway and coffee bean milkshake (? or ice blended?) while i had sushi and a muffin from coffee bean too (regrets this, the muffin was nice but i'm super full now). I wanted to get the present for siying's birthday from our cluster, but the thing i wanted to get was not sold there :C gotta search in clementi central tomorrow : /
Still need to mug bio. On this headache. somehow.
okay i must learn to be more optimistic and stop complaining about stuff
today's math class task went relatively well for me, compared to my previous, screwed up ones C:
gave siying a pretty snowglobe that i bought in canada butchart gardens C: i really like it, should have bought for myself too! :D nvm, i'll definitely get to go there again. C:
seeing exchange students make me miss iggy. wearing my iggy shirt now! :D

2010-01-24T20:30:00.002+08:00

had boarding games just now. same grouping as the previous boarding games day. mine's people living in room number 8s bed 1. was uhm okay la. sun was super strong. i wanted to play captain's ball, but there were about nine games and each group only got to play five.
addicted to boys like girls songs
brought fruits to eat in hostel C:
the beijing no. 4 people came over to s'pore. adeline's involved, she's on exchange with them.
my parents have university friends from beijing no. 4 high school! I thinks thats super cool luhh.
i dont think i've got enough time to revise for bio o quiz on wednesday! :O slacked way too much over weekends D:
me and tricia are done deciding what modules to take/drop. now jerlin's in a dilemma too :O choosing whether to take chem o or not : /
having choices is a privilege, but sometimes its just so hard to make a decision :P

2010-01-23T17:43:00.002+08:00

i think our school's 6th storey is quite pretty, went there for chem o yesterday. the seminar room smells pretty nasty though.
final decision: keeping math honours, keeping bio o, dropping chem o. After days after days of brain juice expenditure.
tricia's decisions same as mine, just that the choices of o's are reversed.
we talked to mayfong for advice on the modules yesterday after netball, and i think what she said made quite a lot of sense: that universities look primarily at your GPA, even if you take what ever cool-looking modules on your gradebook like math honours or olympiads, it doesnt make a difference if your CAP is below the cut off point.
I'm super unproductive in completing work -_- but today seems better:

~~make notes on resting potential~~
read cell bio section of text
memorize cell bio notes
~~math notes pg 6 to 12 revise~~
~~math assignment~~
~~math tutorial last 2 questions revise~~
revise chem
chem tutorial question 6
revise year 4 math work
english journal

hope i can finish number 7, 8 and 2 today. Go go go!
sent an email that i deep down really didn't want to send last night

2010-01-21T23:09:00.002+08:00

there's actually something with enough content to post about today, so no point form C:

402 steamboat! In celebration for the January babies: chris, tony, yawen, lewis!

At first seemed like a lot of people were going out to buy stuff, but somehow it ended up with only me weiren serene adeline going. yep so we left at 1+, but I went home first though, to get my drop honours formed signed and to random around. Yep, met back up with them at ntuc. We took pretty long to choose and decide what food to buy, how much of each, what brand etc etc i guess. Weiren was like in pain, having to stay and tolerate our slow-ness :P met monica and weijin there too, and weijin's choosing stuff for us like it's his own steamboat :D

serene and i went off to choose the cake at bengawan solo. We both really wanted the mango cake! (drool :P) budden some people may not like mango, so we played safe and got the blackforest cake. met them back in the interchange to take 196 back cus it was raining, but found out that weiren left already, carrying big bags of food back by himself and walking in the rain :O why why why !

got back to school at around 4 plus and got to work!

wash vegetables cook eggs wash prawn peel potatoes (got my fingers cut, ouch. yawen and adeline too) cut tofu wash pots get the plastic thing out of crabsticks chop sausages wash meat/fishballs wrap everything in clingwrap

phewwww. was pretty tiring :O

I wanted to play frisbee actually, but we prepared the food the whole afternoon till close 6pm, so straightaway went to set the steamboat up!

oh ya, i think zacc deserves lots of credit, cus he brought one the two sets of steamboat pot+heater! without it it would be quite inconvenient, with only one left. Plus he didn't come to eat anything :O

eh i better post in point form, my sentences are starting to become incoherent

quite a lot of 402 people came today! like almost all i think.
we all went to take the hostel cup for our drinks :D
lots of people from other classes want to steal our food!
mr ku came! but like only for... 10 minutes? he said he'd to go back cus it was late :C
but ms lee came too! she stayed for long, but she came late, so by the time she came like more than half the food was gone :O
before cake-cutting, ms lee suggested that the 4 birthday people stand on the canteen bench and sing 'happy birthday to me!' before the rest of us sing 'happy birthday to you' to them :D Took a video of it :D (I tried uploading the video up to facebook together with the photos i took, but after 45MB out of 52MB was uploaded, it got cancelled! disheartened sheesh. Shall upload after i get home tomorrow!)
yawen's sensitive about her age, the last thing you should do is to ask her about it!
i cant wait for the next 402 gathering :P
there was this time where i was taking photos and yawen tried to block weiren's face with her hand. So, weiren tried to dodge by moving up and down, but unknown to him, i was taking a video. Thus i end up with this video of weiren's head+body moving up and down, quite comical :D he tried to get the camera from me to delete it, and i did give him the camera but took the memory card out, he didnt realize of course >:D he doesnt allow me to upload it on facebook :C
i didnt get disconnected for the internet reset at 12am today! :O
we ended at 8 to go back for study time, and went back to pantry after study time to wash up. well, actually it was only adeline doing the stuff this time, cus there was only one sink. sorry!
math honours class task tomorrow :O havent studied! but then again i'm dropping so... :P
its already like 3rd week into the semester and i'm still slacking! at this rate....
i want to play frisbee...

2010-01-20T15:24:00.002+08:00

had a bad stomachache today D: could hardly concentrate through chem and math. So i went back to hostel to rest halfway through math lesson. hostel's great in this sense :D
apparently, many other people had stomachaches too :O tricia had a pretty bad one too, and ryan from my class, and bryce and lewis :O must be the hostel food :/
yep, had our first bio o training class today. sounded very intensive. must mug very hard le :/ the 5 seniors who made it into the practical round had a sharing with us today. they're all like super pro! most of them take 4 honours and 2 olympiad trainings :O
bio o had a diagnostic test today too. Uh hum, i can only say i have a long way to go!
still a bit wavering about my math-honours-chem-olympiad thingy :C i don't know if i'll regret it if i drop math honours and take chem o... i want to drop math honours, but i don't know what's holding me back. and for chem o, i'm pretty interested in whats gonna be taught, but i think its going to be very hard, and my chem is not say very very good kind :/
there's a english formative tomorrow, math honours class task on friday, math class task next monday and bio class task next wednesday. gotta start working hard!

2010-01-19T20:40:00.002+08:00

went to tv room with superheroes just now after dinner C:
played the stacking blocks game! so exciting la, should have taken a video the moment the tower fell. Its like the one who loses have to answer a truth question, ~~and we all purposely wanted bryce to lose~~, so we'd pray hard that on everyone else's turn, the tower won't fall. It went on like this for a few rounds and each time bryce managed to escape :D then at this particular round, he still managed to pull one block out of the already precariously stacked tower and we're all like sighhh. THEN when he put the block back on the top of the tower, it fell! :D:D:D super pro luhh, and everyone clapped super loudly :D bryce you owe us a truth C:
got my christmas present from rion! at dinner, weijin and him were arguing, weijin saying that rion didn't even intend to tear the price tag and rion saying that weijin tore the price tag off so ugly-ly anyway. yup so i opened the HMV plastic bag and there's this piece of paper tangling from the CD. thought it was a note at first but no, its the RECEIPT! me and adeline laughed SO hard luhh.
going back to tv room later to take photos with superheroes. bryce brought his pro camera :D

2010-01-19T17:48:00.002+08:00

first and foremost, HAPPY BIRTHDAY YAWEN!!
present from me serene (shaoxuan monica? forgot if we shared with them too, bought too long ago :/ at that time when a portion of 402 went to vivo): a big TV pig plush C:
i shall go home one of these days to get my parent's signature for drop honours form :/
PE today, dr sun's 506's PE teacher, but mr sim took us today. people call him the... army trainer? my stamina is lousy :C i think the girls in our class can run really fast. Today's rounds were such that the slowest girl leads, then the boys behind the girls. And it was like still very fast :O
took height and weight for PE today too. Gained weight but grew taller C:
superhero dinner later, again, in 45 minutes time!
went to music room today. drums are actually quite fun! I got no sense of rhythm though heh :/ serene told me her clarinet accompaniment was going to be chicken, but when i tried to play it i was like uhhh. My sight reading very fail :/ i think ada's sight reading is super good! that time i saw her play tong hua on her first try like it was her 20th time or something.

Okay the previous 2 bullet points are contradictory.

2010-01-14T17:21:00.002+08:00

was really in a dilemma of what modules to take and what cca to choose. in the end decided to choose odac! Cus i need to join a sports cca or else i won't exercise and i think odac would be quite fun C: for modules, would be dropping chem o and taking bio o and keeping my math honours. me and tricia were seriously thinking of dropping math honours until we talked and thought through it with mr chia and these 2 year 6es who gave us some advice
i'm really glad i made notes for each bio module for the past few years C: would come in handy for bio o, i hope.

i like this year's mass dance song
i'm glad i live near school
i'm supposed to be studying for my math graded task, but i've got no impetus at all! okay i think i just used that word in the wrong context/sentence structure, but hey, at least i learn something from english lessons!
i love the games room and pool and air hockey and table soccer!
i shall go to the west coast recreation center to play pool with my family someday
tung's blurness is super amusing :D

yesterday's hostel bonding games were ughh... boring. but i guess its a good try? i mean its kinda hard to get everyone enthu and bonded well when its 10.30 pm at night and the cohort is so large. Oh there's this staring game that elaine taught us and it goes like this: we stand in a tight circle and look down, and on the count of three, we all look up and choose one person to look at. then if that person also happens to be looking at you, you're out. Yup so the first round i decided to look at xinyi and lo and behold! we find ourselves out of the game!
i want to drop out of SSEF
i want to do a proper project this sem and really do a good job
yuhan can draw really well!

I can't wait for exams to be over and all schoolwork to be brushed aside.

But then again, I don't want the school term to end.

There. Done. Kay now for updates:

My chinese test keeps being pushed back. Firstly, I don't have a lot of free time to take the test. Secondly, Mr ho was not in school on the day I had free time. Thirdly, he had something else to attend on the other day I have free time. So yep. I'm taking the test when school reopens in term 4 : /

Woah it's going to be term 4 in just a week! Time flies way too fast...... We'll be year fives in 4 months! We'll be graduating in 2 years!

Monday was teacher's day celeb. Gave mr ku this jigsaw puzzle of our class photo. I think its super nice! I want one of my own! We got Mr chia a mug with our class photo with him printed on it. That one's nice too C: Got Mr wong ribena and dr tan a stuffed giraffe (apparantly it relates to evolution) And made a card for all the teachers who'd taught us.

Ms clara kong is back!

Well the guys in our class are not so trilled about this...

The girls made her a card and we got two packs of chocolates from the bookshop... quite umm... last minute but its the though that counts, right? C:

Had PE on thursday (taking friday's timetable)!

We played captain's ball with a rugby ball against our own class. Yep the first game was like this: If the ball drops on the floor, the team which last touched the ball has to do two push ups. The second was just normal. And as usual, the games were super funny!! Actually I can't remember exactly the stuff which were funny... but at that time all of us laughed until our stomachs hurt. : /

Kay today was sports day. The weather is really fickle minded today, switching from super scorching sunshine to drizzling and back again and back again again and then a downpour and the sun again. -_-

Running events went on as usual though. I ran 200m, my first time taking part in sports day and my first time running 200m! :P

Well faraday came in first overall, followed by nobel who is just 2 points away from us, and then fleming and finally fibo.

there was supposed to be a class outing to swensens today, but about 10 people or so couldn't make it, so it got called off. Hope we get a really good one next time...

So in the end adeline, monica, shaoxuan and I went to plaza sing to shop for materials for the mid-autumn festival performance. Oh yea my class got invited to perform for the mid-autumn festival celebration since we performed as a class for the translation competition. -_- haha. And we shopped for birthday presents too. Theres this stuffed toy catching machine that has this HUUUUUGGGGEEEE cinamoroll stuffed toy. I bet if tricia was there, she'd be staring at it longingly and contemplating whether to give it a try or not.
