so the Ends have started taking place..

papers are okay so far, though i'm aware of the mistakes i made and the marks that i've lost. never mind.. sighs i guess one should learn to take things in his stride.. haha i'm learning how to do so, if not i'll fall into a real deep depression. my life's full of downs.. haha.

nowadays everyone's speaking about the papers.. hmm actually i tend to feel down and stressed in this kinda atmosphere ( haha ok many people also do ) so sometimes i'll get real moody and stuff. hmm.. i hope to seek my friends' understanding? sighs.. if i offend anyone please let me know..

of course there're other troubles.. shall not elaborate it. but everything that's happening to/around me is distracting me during exams.. seriously.. during the papers.. i feel that i don't have 100% concentration..

but then anyway.. not to dampen everyone's mood..

YEAH ALL THE BEST FOR EOYs! (:

HAHA. HANG IN THERE! (:

let me see.. 4 down, 4/5 MORE TO GO!

good day, everyone..

first thing first: HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIQI! (:

well.. the paper 1s have ended and i guess it's time for memorising work.

teachers can be quite cute sometimes. seriously no sacarsm here. yesterday this invigilator came into our class during the EL paper 1. after keeping us quiet and giving out instructions.. he wrote this on the board:

" 1.45 minutes "

the whole class burst out laughing ( except for me ) and he had absolutely no idea why. he stared at the board, still hadn't realised the mistake.. ha i was as slow as him though, if it wasn't for Norine who explained it to me. haha and then he was 'enlightened'.. but in order not to disrupt the neighbouring classes, he ordered us to be silent. heh.

the paper was supposed to start at 11am.. after giving out the papers it was about 10.57am.. guess what, he actually took the clock down and adjusted it to 11 so that we could immediately start! that's really hilarious but it certainly eased the tensed atmoshere in class. which was what i was hoping for. so thanks teacher!

i was like smiling and laughing to myself in class.. Bena must have thought i was crazy haha.

today the Chinese teacher gave us a debate topic and asked the class to discuss about it..

" Good looks is the shortcut to success"

hmm. though i won't wanna admit it but then in some cases it's really true.. unfortunately. if the world could function in a much fairer way and not be so practical about things like that. ahh.. just something i was thinking about during the debate. nyeah!

my back's recovering i guess, although there would still be pain.. i really really miss running a lot. if by sunday it's not aching i'm gonna run on monday yeah! hopefully hopefully.. sighs it's quite hard to say because the pain could come back anytime.. especially when i do vigorous actions.. this morning i almost died while rushing for the bus along with Elise and Jan.

haha yup so that's all for today..

good day everyone!

it's easier to be different.. than to make a difference.

this morning i woke up with the most terrible backache i've ever had in my entire life. and so i didn't attend school today.

woke up from my sleep at 8. washed up, had breakfast, a little rest and then off to studying for Geography. the entire morning was quite productive, i think i've absorbed quite a lot from the revision. who won't, with sufficient sleep? ya i guess it was a blessing in disguise. it was good sitting on the sofa and reading my notes, while enjoying the cool breeze blowing through the windows. except that i had to constantly adjust the cushion supporting my back.

afternoon came. my dad brought me to the Chinese Physician ( this is the second time i'm seeking treatment ). i was kinda glad because i thought i could recover faster like that, instead of letting it heal by itself. the Physician rubbed and did whatever was necessary..

then she told me that my backbone was severely crooked. erm ha. that scared the earth out of me. i think she was quite rough with my back, it's still aching now..

worse thing was, she actually performed acupuncture. eeks. needles poking through my back. it wasn't pain, in fact it was a numb feeling when the needle was poked in. i guess it was due to my own psychological problem, i was panicking and the muscles of my back were jumping.. as if currents were passing through them. but then again, the Physician told me that there were currents. the more my muscles jumped, the more scared i was.

and then finally, the torturous 20 minutes of acupuncture was over. surprisingly quite effective.. i didn't feel as much pain as before. but it still hurts sighs.

as i stepped out, i told my dad i was never gonna go back for acupuncture again.

haha yup so that was my first ( and hopefully the last ) acupuncture session. a nice experience nevertheless.. so overall i guess today was well-spent. what a day! haha

i just want my back to recover pretty soon please!

last but not least, thanks to everyone who showed concern in a way or another (:

good day!

wow today's such a cold day! i'm at home and in windbreaker and trackpants. -shivers.

today's revision was not at all productive, hence Georgina and i decided to head back home sweet home and rest. i came back and finished up the last bit of my work. it's been ages since i've been alone at home. on a sunday.

ahh.. the whole afternoon i've been thinking.. have i neglected my family? it's like during the weekdays i'm so busy with school, revision and exams. during the weekends i go to the library for revision. i haven't been spending my time with my family, or at least not very much. when i finally have the time, they've got something on. it's like i'm living in a separate world from them and i don't really like it. no, i don't like it at all. hmm. something to work on.

but i promise after the Ends, i'll spend my weekends with them.

a friend was telling me " you see everyone around you is moving on, except for you.. still living in the past."

sighs. it's not that i don't want to move on. it's just that i can't. perhaps for me it needs double time. sometimes i see people moving on, i don't feel good. how could they? how could they forget those that took place in the past? are those things not of any worth to them?

and then later, i realised that.. it's not that they have forgotten. it's just that they've kept the memories in a special place in their hearts.. as they move on and experience new things. which is good.. which is what everybody is supposed to do. it's just that i'm having a little difficulty that's all. but eventually i'll be able to do it.

but then again.. do we really have to?

oops sorry. this post's kinda random. sorry for wasting your time.

good day! (:

it was a wrong step on my part..
i shouldn't have agreed in the first place..
sorry for the inconvenience
real sorry
it was due to my negligence
that it has to be wasted
-guilt.

just one or two days ago while walking down to the canteen during recess..

Ningxin: eh are you hungry?
me: erm.. ya
Ningxin: are you very hungry?
me: huh ehh okay la
Ningxin: very very hungry or very little bit hungry?
me: ?!!??!?!?!??!

one or two hours after school today.. ( names are censored to protect the identity of people involved)

person A: hey, your house got pad not? ( haha guys, if any, you may wanna skip this part )
person B: oh. don't have..
-person A expecting to hear something like " used finish le never buy " but then..
person B: my pet die already.

person A: AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH!!!!

oh man that's so interesting.. moral of the story: mind your pronounciations when you speak English. muahahha.

nyeah! HAHA Peishi here's the answer :

.. cos he's a one-third ( wanted ) man!! hehehe have you gotten it right?

today was kinda slack.. with House meeting and PDP lesson after recess. lessons for today were only Maths, English and Biology.

sighs it's no fun at all, for Sports Day, the people from Athletics are racing against each other.. why can't it be like we mix Athletes with non-Athletes? now it seems like another training session except that we make a team with those of the opposite gender.. haha but never mind.. since it's already set, so be it.. jiayou everybody.. whichever house you're in.

nyeah! another day is gone just like that..

good day, everyone!

sighs what a dumb person am i..
if only that didn't happen to me
it feels real useless watching your teammates training hard
and yet you could do nothing
what's more
i couldn't even complete a full 2.4km
simply succumbed to the pain
i don't want history to repeat itself
never.
but then it's been like two weeks
two weeks of pain
two weeks without running
i really can't take it anymore
just when am i fit enough
to get onto track again..

today was a good and bad day..

had PE in the morning, played frisbee again for assessment. thought it was quite fun.. and today i slipped and fall! the pain travelled down to my lower back ): however the matches were challenging. great game today, everyone!

the rest of the day was practically boring i guess, except for Physics! Mrs Lee had a few of them to do demonstrations.. during which funny things happened and Mrs Lee smiled so widely like she never did before in class! it certainly brought life and warmth to the classroom ( though the weather was hot enough haha ) overall it was a fun lesson (:

and.. to my friends especially Georgina and Yang Ningxin:

hey sorry people, real sorry for looking + sounding pissed off after the last lesson. i didn't mean to behave that way but.. i don't know. i don't know what came over me and i just.. sighs i'm sorry. thanks a lot for your patience!

once again sorry ):

on a lighter note, our Biological test is cancelled. teachers, you don't know how much help and relief that was.
ok actually you do know ha. thank you.

take care everyone!

i didn't.. and couldn't.

one of my dearest cousins asked me this lame riddle: why is this person a two-third woman?

haha readers guess guess!!

will reveal answer some time later.

and yes, school's starting real soon! i dread the exams part.. but i can't wait to return to school. short holidays = no holidays. i don't really like this haha.

hope to see everyone real soon (:

TODAY MARKS THE BIRTHDAY OF MY NIECE!!! (:

her name's Chelsey.. yes it sounds exactly like the soccer team, Chelsea. and yes, my cousin's a die-hard fan of soccer. but i think it's such a cute name. well done cousins! haha. i'm gonna visit my cousin and niece later.. wonder how the little fellow looks like. excited! haha

the bicultural talk was kind of interesting.. well. the speakers are indeed knowledgeable and their speeches were not that boring. what more can i ask for, my idol was there-- Mr Cai Shen Jiang. read his articles on the Chinese papers, i thought he's not bad!

after that was lunch. wow ok i'm noob i admit. i didn't know about the foodcourt near our school! basically it sells mostly Thai food, had pineapple rice for lunch. many RVians were there as well, i guess all of us had remedial lessons so decided to grab a bite there.

*rewinds*

on the way to the foodcourt, Chuanmin was telling me that her parents had wanted her to choose an English name for herself. then her dad was like " eh, next time use April la. " at first i heard, hey not bad, April! then the next moment, she asked me to pronounce her full name.

" April Foo Chuan Min"

AHAHAHHAHA man it's super funny! i laughed all the way up the slope and i think she wanted to bash me up. hey Chuanmin, if you happen to read this and don't want me to publicize it, give me a call and i'll cancel this RIGHTAWAY. hahaha i'm sorry but it's really funny so if you don't mind (:

and.. i didn't know that in order to get to Jurong East from Doby Ghaut, you need to transfer train at Raffles Place/City Hall?? i landed up in Marina Bay last night again -_-"

no wonder the train was so empty when it was at Raffles Place or City Hall i can't remember.. i was just rejoicing silently because i thought i could finally have the whole cabin to myself when..

" this train terminates at Marina Bay. all passengers please alight "

how dumb can i get? i knew how to go from Jurong East to Doby, but not the way back.. hahaha well done, jade.

haha did i mention i am eligible to be the spokesperson for Tiger Balm? i've been having the Tiger plasters all over my back for the past few days. haha. but it's better already, thanks a lot to those who showed concern.

Stanley: hahaha hey here's what you wanted-- friend you sing like Jay Chou!!!

yup, off i go.. good day everyone!

i'm in no position to do so..
