I'm on a long bus ride now, so as I promised, i'll blog~
I can't believe I'm J2 already, it feels like just yesterday when i was playing orientation games with my OG.
I miss my OG, well, most of them anyway. They were one of my best groups of friends that I made in AC. Other awesome groups would be my china trip friends. Environment council peeps and outside of AC, Soka Chingay dearies~
AC never felt I was important enough to go for CCAAB or enthusiastic enough to be an OGL but I have taken it all in my stride already.
Yea these two facts hurt me for a while but at the end, I have gotten better things in return.
I'm being utterly random here.
Anyway, let's talk about Chingay first.
Chingay 2012 has been an awesome experience where I met an amazing group of new friends. Every bit of memory with them is oh-so-precious and sweet :)
Although I didn't encounter any big problems in the process of Chingay, I have still grown more mature and learnt many great lessons from those around me whom, despite their various obstacles, never gave up on life. All their strong spirits really touched me~
Let's hope that I can join Chingay 2013 and be in the same group as them again :)
Other than Chingay, I have been trying to get myself involved in more CIP stuff so that I can contribute more to the society.
It doesn't bother me anymore if I'm not Miss Popular in school because I know there are many people in Singapore who don't even have thos prestigious chance to study in AC.
I will just make the most of my time in AC, contribute in whatever ways I can to make the world a better place.
I'm going for this Tzu-Chi recycling volunteer thing tmr morning which is environment related, one of the areas I am passionate in.
As much as I hope to do more CIP, I have dawned upon the fact that A levels is still my main priority this year as a student.
I am currently considering whether I should volunteer at this centre where I tutor less privileged children weekly. I would have to balance this with my own studies well since this would take up about 3 hours a week?
All in all, self discipline on my part is still of utmost importance.
Right now, I am still slacking away like nobody's business and I feel so bad when i see my two close classmates working so hard and I'm just spreading my slackness aura to them =/
I NEED TO MANAGE MY TIME PROPERLY.
I read so many motivational books on how to be a good student and how to manage time properly, i can even summarise what they are talking about but I just can't seem to carry out their advice :(
I rant about the same things all the time, omg, i hate myself now blehhhh.
Anyway I'm reaching home soon so byeeeeeeeeee :)

2012-02-06T01:15:00.003+08:00

I wanna post long stories about my life but I'm too lazy =/
But to summarise,
CHINGAY 2012 IS AWESOME!!!!
Maybe I'll post more about it on my next long bus ride.
Anyway, recently I have been addicted to pi again!

Typed this all from memory :))))))
Haha I'm damn lame, instead of memorising all the Chemistry reactions and reagents, I'm memorising useless numbers =X
Good night awesome world! :)

2012-01-29T23:04:00.001+08:00

The front is DAMN AWESOME!!!! :D :D

2012-01-26T23:16:00.002+08:00

Rebonded my hair for this year's CNY and NO REGRETS! :)
It's one of the rare times when I actually don't regret getting my hair cut or worked on!
My hair is so silky and smooth and easily manageable now, YAY! :D

CNY seems to get more and more boring as the years past, I'm not sure whether it's because all of us are growing older so we don't "play and have fun" that much anymore, or because of technological gadgets that are more attractive than our relatives, or because the CNY mood just isn't there.
Or maybe it's just me =/

I was kinda simple on CNY clothes this year, no dresses or anything out of the ordinary, just jeans and a red with white polka dots blouse.
It seems like A LOT of people wore cheongsam for CNY this year though!
I wore it last year and it was quite restrictive because you have to sit in a demure way so that you don't expose anything obscene..

School has been mundane..
The new timetable kinda sucks.
To start off, the template of the timetable looks like the primary school type and I feel kiddish, as if I'm not kiddish enough already.
I preferred the template last year, it looked more professional and JC-ish..
The worst part of the timetable is that I have lessons for ALL my subjects on Monday and Friday and I end at 4.30pm on both days!
Can you imagine how torturous that is??
First day of the week and my brain is exhausted to no end and last day of the week, my brain can't even get a break :(
Well on the bright side, at least I still have quite a lot of breaks, like a 2hour 20minutes one on Thursday morning :D
I am still not catching up with my work, slacking like crazy (like now).
Tomorrow's Friday and it's going to be a longggggggggggg day!
Like seriously.
Physics lecture, physics, gp, econs, chem, math tutorial, SWIM PE then after that I have to rush home to put down my stuff then go for chingay group dinner+practice+stayover then next morning go for track training.
I'm not even sure whether I'm going to get any sleep =X
I think I should sleep early tonight just in case I'm not going to sleep on Friday night~
And PLEASEEEEEEE don't let me get tanned like charred chicken during swim pe!!!!!

Yet another sleepless night, thinking about how much homework I have yet not touching them =/

2012-01-02T12:31:00.004+08:00

HAPPY NEW YEAR! :)
actually new years are JUST ANOTHER DAY, i don't feel that excited over it anymore.
Currently on my long bus ride which is like a time for me to reflect on my life..
I realise that I reflect a lot but it's just thinking "ahhh my life has been like this so far, i miss these times, i wish i could forget those times, i wish I had not made certain decisions" etc etc, but the important part on using these reflections to guide my life to a better future, I have not done. =/
After reflecting, I just go back to my same old slackish procrastinating ways and that's BADDDD.
Last night I suddenly felt this overload of things to do.
I was randomly flipping my school handbook and realise that cca noticeboards were suppose to be done today but our board wasnt even done yet and i started panicking.
After some thought, I decided to make a trip down to school to settle the board.
Now that the board is done, I still have to worry about open house which is in about 9 days, need to do the gifts and showcase stuff which we have not done AT ALL.
GOSH, I suck as ACEC VP..
Other than acec stuff, i also received an email from my china trip teacher reminding us to submit our china trip homework.. T.T
I'm not even going to bother about my PCME homework already x.x
Urgh my 5-7jan malaysia trip seems really untimely now.
On a brighter note, I have Chingay tonight :)
It was really a blessed thing that I could join chingay after all.
When my SD i/c first asked me to join, i was hesitating because i wanted to be an OGL and i was afraid i couldnt cope or things clash etc.
In the end, i didnt get chosen to be an ogl...
And recently, my SD i/c suddenly called me again and told me they were lacking 50 people and asked if I still wanted to join.
I WAS OVERJOYED!!! how awesome!!!
And the other awesome part is that I know my chingay trainer! Haha i was shocked when i found out since i didnt really know a lot of people in ssa~
But since i joined late, i missed out on quite a lot of stuff so i have to work doubly hard to catch up.
Managed to get all the moves on the first training, second extra training was more of polishing for me, hopefully tonight goes well :)
Oh and another big problem, the music seems to have no beats at all???

2011-12-30T23:00:00.002+08:00

I should set some new year resolutions for next year and hopefully i can have the willpower to stick to them.
1. Study harder and smarter such that I can get average C for all my subjects.
2. Contribute more to AC, be it in terms of ACEC or track or any other methods possible.
3. Treat my mum and grandma better i.e. Do more housework, be more willing to do grocery shopping etc
4. Care more about my friends and be a better friend, also attend as many outings as I can.
5. Stop wasting time at midnight reminiscing about my past and instead spend the time better by reading the dictionary or sth.
6. Maintain a good fitness level and do some PT at night while watching tv or sth. Even better if I can be that motivated to run every morning before school.
7. Get a better dress sense.
8. Lose a few kilos so that my weight can be at a nice level.

That's all I can think of now..
Hope anyone reading this has had a good 2011 and may 2012 be even better for you! <3

2011-11-22T12:57:00.002+08:00

Going to visit a Yakult factory now :)
I am seriously amazed by the power of my neighbour, she actually managed to get 40people to come for this.
And this got me thinking, i should be able to convince more people to be green and eco friendly and change ac for the better :)
But first step is to get the acec board done.. All the stuff we pasted on the board just fell off one day and i dont even understand why T.T

2011-11-20T00:40:00.001+08:00

I feel so helpless and useless and meaningless now :\

2011-11-17T00:12:00.002+08:00

:O why is blogger BLUE o.o
Haha anyways,
I am officially part of AC's Student Task Force 2012 Cleanliness team :)
Sounds cool~
Hopefully I can make use of this way to contribute more to the school and feel more useful :)
The cleanliness people are all nice people and I am sure we are going to have an awesome time tgt :)
Saw the CCAAB people in school today and I felt sooooo jealoussssss :( :(
SIAN.
Holidays are here and I don't know how to spend it..
should i work??? if yes, where???
Maybe I should find somewhere that pays higher than four leaves =X

2011-11-04T16:51:00.002+08:00

Imma bad girl today =/
Feel asleep in physics and math lesson x.x
But that's cos i didnt sleep a wink last night trying to do my oscillations tutorial.
Tbh i spent half of the time slacking, playing tetris on fb etc.. Bad bad
Dance practice for china trip was good today :) the dance is awesome :D i need a lot of practice though..
So sleepy now, shall sleep at 10 today after watching the doctor show :D

2011-11-04T01:33:00.002+08:00

Saw this guy getting rejected by his idk cca/class teacher on his OGL application today..
The teacher was like saying he thinks this guy shouldnt be an OGL cos he quite slack and sure wont study hard next year, then plus got fun-o-rama so might not be able to cope.
And I was thinking, was it a good idea for me to be an OGL then?
My results weren't very good even though I managed to keep my 4H2s.
Blurb, but if my OGL application really succeeds, I definitely MUST WORK HARD!!!!
I need to stop slacking, seriously. =/

2011-11-01T15:41:00.002+08:00

I should write down things I am thankful for everyday so that when the going gets tough, i can look at all these things i am thankful for and feel better :)
Today I am thankful that I arrived in school on time despiteleaving home late.
I am thankful that I got to try the fried chicken at the muslim stall after being in AC for like 8 months?
I am thankful that PW was slack today because I have such an awesome group leader.
I am thankful that my ACEC teacher signed my OGL form and looked happy to sign it.
I am thankful that my Chem and Econs got moderated to a D.
I am ultra thankful that my Math got moderated to a B even though I had U in terms.
I am thankful that I am safely promoted to JC2.
I am thankful that I get to keep my 4 H2s.
I am thankful that I have awesome friends around me who always provide a helping hand when I need it and never fail to make me feel cheerful :)
I am especially thankful to my dedicated teachers who always provide me with words of encouragement and helped me in academics when I need it.
I am thankful for my mum and grandmother who made sacrifices in their daily lifestyles to provide me with a conducive environment to study at home.
Hmm getting a bit too much, being thankful for the daily little things in life is enough already, i'm like making it sound like it's the end of my academic journey and i'm giving some award receiving speech...
Currently on my lovely bus ride home and I shall go home to refine my I&R :)
Cheers!

2011-10-27T20:40:00.002+08:00

Life is awesome today :)
I got two free packets of Earl Grey Tea :)
I finished my I&R.
I finished my OP script.
I finished my OP slides.
I went for VOICE.
I don't have to write a letter to the teacher-in-charge because I attended VOICE last week too :)
I bought milk green tea.
I returned my library books.
I borrowed two more books.
I had a nice cooling bus ride home :)
Awesome day ttm~

2011-10-03T19:02:00.002+08:00

Felt like updating this dead blog a little before i start diving into math.
Promos started today with gp and econs.
GP was... Okay?
Wrote the environment essay and i felt like i wasnt answering the question... Didnt really use any bombastic words in the essay either :( bad feeling about it, at max a 27/50...
Compre was quite hard and i couldnt really understand what the whole thing was talking about, they kept using the word "ostentatious" and i dont even knOw what that means! X.X
Could have written more for my AQ if i hadnt slacked so much thinking 45 minutes for an AQ was a lot of time.
Actually it was quite a lot of time la but i wasted it =x
Econs was terrible :( all my answers were damn short cos i couldnt think of anything to write..........
If i fail econs means i cant take 4H2s anymore!!! T.T
I was giving it some thought on the bus ride to school today, what's going to happen to happen to me if i retain? Would i like commit suicide or sth? What's going to happen to me if i do promote but have to drop one subject to H1? The only thing i can drop is physics because that's the only subject to drop that wont get me to change class, but i LOVE physics!! I'll probably choose to drop econs since icant seem to ever pass it.. But i dont want to change class :( :( as much as i dislike my class, i dread the thought of being in another class where i dOnt know anybody but everybody knows everybody...
Thought about dropping chem too but chem's like one of the mostimpt subjects for uni, that is, if i'm looking for some engineering or sciencey course..
Okay i think i shouldnt think too much now and i shld really start studying for maths and ACE math!!! :)

One of the funniest videos ever :D :D :D I cant stop watching it!!!

Posting after like 1 month

2011-08-17T16:07:00.001+08:00

Life has been really good to me but I haven't been good to myself.
I won this GRC excellence award which gave me this $1000 cheque and it should have served as a great source of motivation for me to do well in my studies but I obviously haven't been doing that...
Getting back my term exams has made my subject teachers realise that i'm weak at everything and they have placed more attention on me and tried to help me cope in my studies in many ways; my physics teacher gave me and only me extra tys questions to try out to prepare for an upcoming test but i only did the questions AFTER the test and realised that i actually still have a lot of concepts that i am unsure of... But thankfully i passed my physics test by like 1.5 marks. But i think if i had listened to my teacher's advice and completed the worksheet before the test, i could have passed with a better score...
Then on to econs, my teacher came to talk to me and told me that my econs is quite weak although it wasnt the worst in the class (probably trying to comfort me a little) and then she asked me to do the ssp worksheet even though i'm not in it. And well as expected, i didnt do the worksheet... Today i was having lunch in the canteen then i saw my econs and physics teacher having lunch tgt. Then my econs teacher called out to me to buy this econs govt policies book that was on sale in school today so i was okay...
I'm pretty sure that my physics and econs teacher will be talking about me after i'm gone, like
Econs teacher: oh this girl is not good in econs
and then my phy teacher will be like : oh this girl is terrible at physics too
And they'd say in unison: we should feedback this to her form teacher.
And my form teacher would be like: oh really? She got a U for math!
And i'll be utterly screwed. Okay actually i think my form teacher already knows that i suck at everything.
Had math remedial today with this teacher that reminds me of my sec4 amath teacher.
I seriously was dying in the remedial. Everyone was like "shua-ing" questions (quote xuefei) while i was seriously just copying the solutions from the white board.
I know that's wrong but i just dont know how to solve all these complex integation questions, i'm already having great diffcultes integrying into my class.
The gap between me and my classmates has already grown so big that i give up trying, i'm convinced that it's them who's rejecting me, not me who's trying to be anti-social. They dont even want to st besde me, like seriously? Am i such a scary person?
Anyway back to studies part. My freaking EOM is still not done even though i was supposed to have completed it during the school holidays but i have dragged on and on until like 7weeks into the 3rd term??? This is really utterly screwed because it's counted for my A levels.
Hmm but my physics SPA which is also counted in the A levels went relatively well compared to some of my classmates. At the very least i didnt drop stuff or make the ruler fly across the room or have like weird readings.
Please pardon me if this post seems utterly disjointed because it feels different typing this with my iphone and my brain is quite dead from terrible math.
Went to clementi to get koi and i'm on my way home now.
Oh i went to clementi yesterday too and i happened to meet my primary school classmate! Haven't seen him since the last class gathering and he has become a lot more muscular. Well he's a dragonboater so being buff is normal. Had quite a long chat with him and we were thinking of organising another class gathering but it would be quite hard because Poly and jc has different holidays...we'll see how it goes i guess.
Oh my this post is sofreaking wordy, hmm let me try if i can insert photos using iphone..

Okay i cant. Too bad so sad bye! I spent my entire bus ride typing this using my iphone!

2011-07-13T20:54:00.002+08:00

After receiving a series of demoralising term exam papers, my sadness finally ended! :D
I passed GP!!!!
Actually I wasn't really giving much thought about GP, as in those type of ahhh i'm going to fail or hahaha the paper was so easy kinda feeling.
It was just a do-finish-and-forget paper =X
When the teacher gave back the paper and I saw 33/50 on my paper, I was like shocked!
Partly cos the girl sitting beside me was like an english pro (she got A1 for English O levels) and she failed the paper.
I got 6/8 for my AQ because I used up like all the available space to write :D
HAPPY~~~~~
And the most awesome thing was that I was the 2nd highest in class, just 1 mark less than SW!!!!
That's like the ultimate honor I can get.
But one odd thing was that when the teacher announced that I got 2nd highest in class, she added on to say that my previous gp teacher (who went to give birth and entrusted us into the care of this new young teacher) commented that I was a very hardworking girl and I was like huhhhh =X
I bet she mistook me for Enyi or something hahaha.
So my final grades are "B E E U U"-tiful..
This is actually quite scary because I need to get at least C C D E for promos to be promoted T.T
Which means I need to get like straight As for promos to be able to get C C D E..
Take my worst subject Maths for example, my current marks is like 34/100 so to get a C, I need to get [60-(34 x 0.3)] x (10/7) = 71.143 (5.s.f) = 71.2 (3.s.f)
Haha I can't believe my maths is good enough to calculate this out.
Anyway, it's no use crying over spilt milk so I should really WORK HARD.
I managed to have the perserverance to lock myself in my room for 3 hours straight to do my Physics Work Energy Power tutorial despite being able to hear the sound of the tv outside :D :D
So proud of myself, but well, that only happened once and it never happened again...
So yes, lots more improvement to be made.
Shall go do work now, byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :D :D

2011-06-19T23:19:00.002+08:00

I feel like a neglected kid sometimes.
Like a kindergarten kid, I like to tell long stories to my mum about how my day was, what funny stories the teachers told us, what queer people i met on the bus etc.
But my mum rarely listens to what i say.
That really hurts me.
Because here i am, wanting to let her know more about my life but there she is, reading the newspapers about other people's lives and then accusing me of always not telling her things.
Each time after her rejection to listen to my stories, I tell myself "Next time I will not tell her stories anymore, I will not go on and on about my day and I will not tell her about my plans for the week" because she never bothers to listen and remember anyway.
But I find it hard to keep my mouth shut so urgh, that irritates me.
I'm a sad kid :(

2011-06-18T23:11:00.002+08:00

I learnt an important lesson today.

I need to be more responsible.

On 4th June, my environmental council j2 president asked who was going back to school between 13th to 18th june and i told her i was going back on the 13th, 15th and 18th because those are track days.
Hence she emailed SA that they could contact me for the collection of the clothes we had collected during the CIP.

The same night, I went home and checked my email and found out that I had successfully applied to participate in YEE programme, which is a 3-day workshop from 18th June to 20th June.
Being extremely excited for the workshop, I had clean forgotten about the fact that my senior already told SA that I was free on 18th.

On 13th June, SA called me and said that they would be collecting the clothes on 18th June.
I immediately told them that I had urgent matters and I was unable to be present on that day, they told me to find someone to replace me and to call them again to tell them the contact of my replacement.
So I sent a FB msg to all EC members to ask whether anyone was free on 18th june to replace me but no one was.
Subsequently, I tried calling the SA's hotline like 5 times a day, like really, I called when I was queueing for food, I called when I was waiting for my mrt, I called when I was stoning at home but the line was ALWAYS BUSY.
They changed their hotline to an automated voice thingy on 17th June and well it kinda saved me some time because I only had to wait for about 10 seconds for the automated voice to tell me that no one is available to take my call.
I was at a loss of what I could do.
The next morning, I decided to call SA again and FINALLY someone answered the call.
I told them that I was unable to be at school to sign the acknowledgement receipt and I couldn't find a replacement and that I tried calling them every single day but to no avail.
Well naturally, the person was a little pissed at me and she started nagging at me about how I can't just cancel on the day itself because they usually visit 6 houses to collect bulky donations but today because our school has an extremely bulky donation, they are only going to our school and another nearby house.
And once again, she told me to try finding another replacement and sms the contact details to her.
So I decided to widen my replacement search and smsed jumpers and some of the people who are more likely to be in school but sadly, nobody was in school.
Haiz, this was a bad decision but i had no other choice but to just wait for SA to call me when they reach and pray that everything turns out well and that they can just collect and leave without me being there..
At 2pm, they called me and informed me that they had reached the stated destination but they could not find the clothes.
I was like huhhhhh????
The last time I saw, it was still there!
So I told them more detailedly about the place where the clothes are to ensure that they weren't at the wrong place but they still told me there was nothing!
They asked me to call the school to ask whether anyone might have shifted it elsewhere.
Being at the workshop, I couldn't find out what the school's phone number was so I called HW to ask and thank god he picked up!
He told me a number and i couldn't remember it because i was all flustered and worried and everything else.
After I hung up, I tried calling the number and the number doesn't exist??
Then HW called me again and said he had given me the wrong number, and I had some difficulties remembering the correct number too.
After dialling through, I made a remarkable discovery that the school's number was automated too!
It went like "To call the General Office, Press 1, To call the Head of Department, Press 2" and there were like more than 5 numbers that I could press so I just pressed 1.
Next, "To call the Admin Manager 1, press 1, to call the Admin Manager 2, press 2, to call the operating manager, press 3".
So I just pressed 3 because i didn't know who to call.
After about 10 rings, there was no answer so I just hung up and called SA again.
The lady told me that the workers had left because they couldn't find anything.
I apologisely to her profusely about them making a wasted trip and she told me that it was okay and she thanked me for calling SA and hung up.
I think she's probably cursing me silently for wasting their time and resources.
I FEEL EXTREMELY BAD T.T
I need to do more good deeds to redeem myself.

所谓，失败是成功之母，
I need to learn from my mistakes in this episode.
#1. I must think twice before making a commitment, I must not agree to everything readily and realise that they clash.
#2. I need to write down my schedule such as dental appointments, extra lessons, external commitments etc
#3. I must call SA more than 5 times until they answer and not give up after 5 tries, I must understand that they are a very busy organisation because Singaporeans are very kind and want to donate items to SA. (this applies to all other organisations as well)
#4. I must keep calm and carry on when I meet sticky situations, I need to take a deep breath and assess the situation and think of a proper solution.
#5. I must prove myself worthy of the EC VP position by striking a better work-cca balance.

I was considering to quit track but EC can't be my only CCA because it is not "intense" enough to be considered as a main cca.
But my common tests are already showing how i am terrible at work-cca balance.
I need more self reflection time.
Meanwhile, it's time to sleep now because it's the second day of YEE tmr :)
Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

2011-06-16T22:20:00.002+08:00

I finally found my hobby after 17 long years..
In the past, whenever people ask me what my hobby was, I would always go like errrr and then say sleeping.
But now, I have a proper answer!
DANCING.

I've always known that I can't do proper dancing for nuts so I always avoid myself for dancing stuff but I suddenly realised today that it is my hobby!
According to http://dictionary.reference.com ,
a hobby is an activity or interest pursued for pleasure or relaxation and not as a main occupation,
so it just has to be something i like to do for fun laughter and joy and i dont have to be good in it!
YAY, I have a hobby~~~

2011-06-08T23:29:00.002+08:00

2011-05-21T23:16:00.002+08:00

Today's a good day :)
I woke up early in the morning to go for training.
Went for dental after that.
Meeting at night was good.
I finally felt at ease with all these people who I have known ever since I was born and I felt social :)
I managed to read paragraphs of chinese words without much hiccups.
I bravely answered questions and didnt dodge them like I usually do and I took the initiative to talk to people! :D :D
Hope this happens always :D

2011-05-18T20:55:00.001+08:00

Today's NAPFA "retest" was good :)
I thought it would be like an actual retest and that I would get no more chances after that, but turns out it's not! :D
Probably cos my PE teacher realised how CMI I was after watching me being unable to do a single inclined pull up.
Sit up was bad too cos I only did 17 in one minute??!!
But well, I can't force the acts of nature, if i dont train, i don't expect myself to be pro.
So June holidays shall be a good one, training my stomach muscles, training my arm muscles and studying so that after June holidays, I will come back smart and fit! :D :D

Today was filled with ups and downs.
First down: I wanted to go running this morning but I ended up waking at 11am..
First up: I went to Wendy's (my fav place!) to study physics and i finished studying physics! :D
Second down: I went to cut my hair and the guy burnt my ear while blowing my hair dry! WTF it was like a sudden sting which made me jerk my head away from his murderous hairdryer.
Second up: He was quick to get some cooling gel to apply on my ear and made the pain go away.
Third down: The hair cut was no difference even though i saw him snipping everywhere.
Third up: My hair is quite smooth now after he put some oil.
Fourth down: My cousin came to my grandma's house to test me on what i thought I had memorised for physics but i suddenly forgot all the new things i've learnt like Newton's Third Law of Motion!
Fourth up: My aunt made cupcakes :D
Fifth down: I'm not studying now!! :O :O
Fifth up: Jane sent me a super touching sms to cheer me up and it really made my day <333

Such an interesting life i have.

2011-05-02T20:23:00.000+08:00

I get scared when I hear kids wailing badly, it makes my hair stand and me feel like i just heard a chalk screeching on the chalk board.
Their wails reminds me of this time when I was pretty young and my mum made me stay with my grandma and as she left the house and the gates closed, i started wailing like mad.
Like seriously rocking the gates back and forth and crying and screaming for my mum to come back.
That memory's pretty painful, even thinking of it now.

I feel so much negativity radiating from my computer screen.
Sad people posting about their sad lives.
And I'm one of them too.
And I so barely want to comfort all these sad people, but I can't, either because I don't know what to say to them or cos I was just blog hopping and I don't even know these sad people.
Anyway, shall talk about some happier stuff.
it seems like there's some good service movement going around recently.
My grandma went to Ngee Ann City's Guess outlet last week and she got served by some staff who was really patient and nice to her then at the end of her purchase, he gave her this name card and asked her to email his manager to comment about his service.
Being extremely satisfied by his service, my grandma came home and nagged at me to email that manager and commend that staff.
So I did, I spent like a freaking half hour trying to make my email look presentable, I'm sending it to the manager of a branded shop!!

Then yesterday I was at Clementi Mall waiting for my mum but I gave up cos she said she will only reach in like 2 hours -.-
Sooooo I walked to Clementi Interchange to take 196 home.
As I was walking up the stairs, I suddenly saw 196 there and it was like going to drive off!!
Not wanting to waste 10 minutes waiting, I ran for it.
Thankfully, the bus driver spotted me running (probably thank my height for it) and he stopped the bus.
As I tapped my card, I smiled to him and said thanks and he smiled back at me.
Then, as I took my first step towards the upper deck of the bus, the bus driver suddenly called for me "eh girl wait wait", then i thought did i like drop something or was i hallucinating and i didnt tap my card??
So I walked back to him and he passed me this brochure looking thing.
My first thought was that it was some bus timing thingy that tells you what time the bus comes, probably so that I wouldnt have to run for the bus again next time.
But turns out, IT WAS A FEEDBACK FORM!!!!
I was like stunned when I took it from him, but being the kind soul, I decided to write for him so I spent like 5 minutes sitting in the front seat of the bus filling the feedback form for him, saying that he was very friendly and that the bus was a smooth and comfortable ride (which i didnt even know yet since i just boarded the bus, but in the end the journey was indeed quite smooth and he's a pretty safe driver)

Oh and the last incident that happened to me is something that I'm pretty ashamed to talk about.
Yesterday afternoon I was at my grandma's house bus stop waiting for a bus then this china couple approached me and said "小姐，请问从这里可以搭什么号巴士到达英华国际学校？”
It took my mind a while to register what 英华 meant, and then suddenly I realised, OHHH IT'S AC!!!!
The first school that popped into my mind was Reshma's school, ACSI.
I assumed that the I in ACSI meant international so I told the couple to take 196 and stop 3 stops after buona vista mrt.
The couple was like okay then they waited at the bus stop for a while more.
Then they went to ask another middle-aged lady for directions, which made me feel like they don't trust me, but it seemed like that lady didnt know the directions, like who would know wth 英华 means la, it's all thanks to the chinese cheer during orientation that i know.
So, determined to be the kind soul, I went up to the couple again and asked them whether they need help.
After some talking, I decided to 好人做到底 and take the bus with them to acsi.
On the way, the lady was like telling me about her son wanting to register at 英华国际学校 and take the IB diploma instead of the normal A levels cos she thinks A levels too stressful.
And she said she checked the 英华国际学校 website and it said that the nearest mrt was commonwealth when i told her it's buona vista.
When we reached, I told the couple to walk all the way in and find the general office and then they can get the answers to any enquiries they have.
After I parted from them, I felt weird, it felt wrong.
Then I realised that i brought them to the wrong school!!!!!!
英华国际学校 is ACS International School and that's at like Holland??!!
OOPS.
But the lady keep talking about IB so I thought she wanted to go to Reshma's school...
I feel damn ps now.
I hope I never ever see them again and i hope they don't recognise me x.x
I feel SO. ASHAMED. for being a part of the ACS family. T.T

End of my exciting life.
School sucks ahhhhh.
So much work to do and I'm not doing it, plus i'm missing so much school cos of track.
T.T
byeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Eminem - When I'm Gone

2011-04-20T00:00:00.000+08:00

This song is so touching :(

2011-04-12T00:44:00.003+08:00

Ahhhh lagging behind in school badly!
I need CAPERS or SSP or whatever other programmes AC has for people who are on the brink of enjoying orientation 2012. It would be weird to have a classmate being your OGL right? =X
I have my first common test, math, tomorrow!
Totally not prepared at all meow.
And there's like physics tutorial which i bet she's going to go through the ca1 mock which i'm probably the only person that didnt do and hand in..
And I'm going to be skipping school 5 times due to track which means that I will be missing quite a bit of stuff.
Maybe i should get my mortal to update me everyday :)
My class has this angel-mortal thing where we have to pick someone's name from a box and we have to write to that person anonymously.
It's fun if you get someone whom you have a lot to talk with, like my mortal :)
I hope they dont refresh the angels and mortals anytime soon because i really like talking to my mortal, but i think they will refresh it soon because i think a lot of girls got girls which is well, quite boring.
I think my angel is a girl because her handwriting is quite nice xD
I have no idea what i'm talking about. -.-
Training today was bad because it rained and I couldnt do high jump!!!
How??????
I have only two trainings left to my event!! OMG.

2011-04-10T23:51:00.002+08:00

ACEC is the second best part of my AC life :)
Orientation was the best but well since orientation is over like eons ago, ACEC is currently the best part of my AC life :D
Hopefully I can become an OGL for orientation 2012 then it will be one of my best memories in AC too!

2011-04-05T23:00:00.001+08:00

Argh, life just can't be kind to me for once.
As happy as I was to get the Academic Excellence Award, I cant go back for Speech Day because my nationals is two days later!!!
Ahhhhh.
Before I knew that I was competing in nationals, I was thinking just skip one training never mind one la but now 16 april's training is like compulsory liao :(
And I submitted the reply for the speech day and said that i can make it liao leh..
and i havent done my PI omggg, it's like everyone's announcing on facebook that they have done theirs..

2011-04-04T23:50:00.000+08:00

:D :D :D

2011-04-03T23:31:00.002+08:00

I was napping in the afternoon when I had this really weird but interesting dream.
First I dreamt that I was in a theme park (in fact i've dreamt about this same theme park quite a few time).
Then, I was walking towards one end of the theme park and ended up at the edge of a big ship.
So I was looking at the beautiful sea when suddenly the ship started rocking and then huge waves started rushing towards me.
TSUNAMI! :O
There were like lots and lots of them and somehow in the dream, I was so light that only one of my hand was tightly holding on to the railing and the rest of my body was like almost being pulled away by the strong waves.
After a long while, the waves finally died down and the scene changed to me being at the top of a flight of steps.
And the waves brought a shark to the bottom of the steps.
The second scariest part of the dream came: the shark started chasing after me!!
It chased me up and down the stairs and many times and the thing is, each time i reach the bottom of the steps, i end up in water so it takes me a lot of energy to get back up to the steps.
My energy was soon drained and I couldnt get up from the water.
Hence, the scariest part of the dream came: the shark bit my leg :(
And the dream ended there.

Based on my 分析，the dream was inspired by the recent tsunami in Japan and the fact that meiqi told me we would be doing a beep test during the 4 period pe tomorrow.

Anyway, I cant believe it's Sunday already.
I havent done any work at all (as usual)
I still have my chem planning experiment, math tutorial 4, thermal physics tutorial (overdue for like one week already), GP AQ question, 3 GP articles, do my GP write up for the korea trip, fine tune my PI and think of a proper ILT idea. argh siannn.

2011-03-31T00:09:00.002+08:00

My diet plan is seriously damn fail la.
I feel like a deprived kid :(
But for the sake of a flat tummy and nice legs, I shall endure!
Sure enough I have been eating lots of fruits and vegetables but I'm snacking as well :(
But at least I walked home on Tuesday and even climbed the stairs to the 10th storey and climbed back down again =X
I shall go jogging tomorrow at queenstown stadium, maybe run a timed 2.4km and see whether i'm ready for napfa 2011. highly doubt so =X

I bought 3 AC files at the Jumbo Sale today! 3 for $5, best buy must buy right!
A little tinge of regret for not buying the AC shoebag though, it's only $4!
Just changed the spikes on my spikes shoes and i'm ready to conquer the high jump bar!
Somehow I felt so intimidated by the high jump stuff today that I didnt really do much jumping across the raffia string.
Psychological barrier.
Need to overcome it!! ahhh.
I haven't touched my thermal physics assignment which is due first thing in the morning later..how?? So lazy to do :(

2011-03-30T23:43:00.002+08:00

Went to the new Clementi Mall with my mum yesterday for dinner.
Ate at subway, the cold cut trio looked like ham -.-
I was intrigued by "The Body Shop" outlet at clementi because there was quite a big sign that says that the new body shop shampoo etc are all very environmentally friendly e.g. the plastic bottles used to store the shampoo is 100% recycled! (Y)
I was intending to buy my sunblock from The Body Shop since they are so eco friendly :)
Sooo I tried one of their sunblocks/whitening product thingy.
Just applied like one rice grain size on my hand and started rubbing it to spread around my whole hand.
After rubbing for like one minute, the whole thing was still there!
I was well kinda disappointed =X And after like 2 minutes, i finally managed to sort of blend it in but it made my hands so rough like a rock..
In the end, I went to Watsons to get my awesome Biore sunblock :)

During devotions today, my vice principal mentioned my name to the whole school! haha such a honour right?
He was naming all the ACEC people who went for Earth Hour 2011, there were only 6 people but well that's not bad already bah..
I was quite disappointed with Earth Hour though...The building right behind the stage area didnt participate at all and the lights in the whole building were on in full blast and i didnt even see any sign of anyone in the building..
MBS's Chanel didnt support Earth Hour too. It's "Chanel" wall decorations were blindingly bright!
I'm crazy about this =X
I love the environment! <333

2011-03-30T02:58:00.001+08:00

3am. Still awake. Not gonna sleep :)

2011-03-26T00:23:00.002+08:00

102 cans today :)

Had PE today and we did sit up, inclined pull up and standing broad jump.
Oddly I suddenly cant do inclined pull up anymore??!!!
I couldnt find the energy to do more than 3 consecutive inclined pull ups!
Sit ups sucked badly too, I died at 20.
Thankfully my standing broad jump did not deteoriate, still around 190-200cm :)
Track tmr and i shall JUMP.
I will jump. i can jump.
The best is yet to be.

2011-03-24T22:48:00.004+08:00

I need to lose weight. Desperately.
My weight has always been hovering around 48kg to 52kg.
And today it hit a FREAKING 54Kg!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTFFFFF
But it's kinda expected since I'm like having a picnic everyday.
All the Koi, Gong Cha, Sweet Talk, Chocolate Waffle, Bread at midnight, ice milo bottle, ice cream etc etc
So I shall be anorexic until national track and field championships.
-No Milk tea
-No ice cream (this saturday will be the only exception =X)
-No Ice milo bottle
-Eat lots of fruits everyday. (or even only eat fruits everyday)
-No snacking after 8pm.
-Only drink plain water. Maybe soy bean milk and meiji milk 2/3 times a week.
-Walk home on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
-Sleep earlier, 12.30am.
-Put in my best for track trainings and PE lessons to break out a sweat.
-Do crunches before I sleep every night until I'm slightly sweating.
-Eat less bread, drink water.

That's all I can think for now..
My aim is to be 48kg in 1 month! :D
JIAYOU to me!

2011-03-24T01:38:00.002+08:00

I'm supposed to go to sleep now but I can't sleep so I shall blog about environmental stuff :)
As the environment rep of my class and a member of the environment council, i <3 the environment!
Although I wouldn't say that I would remember the environment ALL THE TIME, occasionally i do forget to do environmentally friendly stuff..
Anyway, I shall talk about some environment stuff happening in school.

1. can collection
Some duno which club wants to collect 150k cans in like 10 weeks so that they can break a guinness world record by using the cans to make a montage.
As much as I'm supporting this project by actively getting my class to participate, I think this project will fail.
Because it requires each class to collect like 500cans PER WEEK!
How is that possible?
But I shouldnt look down on them, maybe it will succeed..
Nonetheless, I will still keep encouraging my class to collect more cans!
Friday is Can Drink Day because we have PE so I will encourage everyone to drink a can of 100 plus or some other can drink after PE :D
We collected 33 cans in the second week, 79 cans in the third week and we are aiming for more than 100cans this week! :D
The 79 cans was damn sad la, it was quite a formidable number already but we still didnt get top 3 T.T

2. Environment Council meeting on Tuesday
I just want to mention one point.
Someone suggested having a stay over camp during june holidays for environment council but the teacher strongly objects because she thinks that classrooms are not a nice place to sleep in BECAUSE THERE'S NO AIRCON!
She was like "you are only allowed to sleep in non-airconditioned classrooms and can you imagine sleeping with fans and how hot it is?"
That's.....not very environmentally friendly.
Okay I'm being extreme liao.
But I haven't slept in an airconditioned room for at least half a year already? And i'm still healthy and fine, in fact healthier and finer than when i used to sleep in an airconditioned room.
My point is, what's wrong with sleeping with fans?

3. CCP worksheet
CCP today was totally environmentally unfriendly.
We had to do this "values" worksheet where we have two pieces of paper, one that has lots of values in grids and the other has lots of blank spaces.
We were supposed to cut the values in grids out and paste it on the blank paper.
Like errr....that's so primary school-ish and environmentally unfriendly because we can just write and save like at least 800 sheets of paper (because all j1 classes had to do this funny thing)
So after CCP lesson ended, I collected the paper from everybody and went to recycle it :)
Great sense of accomplishment :D

4. Earth Hour 2011
Can't wait for it!
I'm sure it will be eggciting! :D

I'm a happy kid whenever i do a good deed, don't you just feel this warmth in your heart when you help someone or help the environment? <3333

2011-03-19T18:36:00.003+08:00

Ate at JP's New York New York with my mum on Thursday night despite me telling her it's so expensive :(
Minestrone soup with some fat pocky stick

my mum's dory fish

cheesy garlic bread

my chicken chop baked rice (cheapest thing on the menu haha)

Overall, it wasn't raving nice luh. =X

Ate mac breakfast with my mum at queensway macs
amazingly i could wake up early enough to enjoy the $4 deal :)

after that, had a mini og outing at Holland V's wendy's

Group photo :)

I would very much like to post more but my brain is dead from the guy in yellow's jokes
there's like the golden man, golden monkey, chicken nut bread, 9 marbles joke
argh tsk.

Time to do homework byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :)

2011-03-16T16:54:00.005+08:00

Just came back from track camp :)
I'm a satisfied kid because I trained 5 times in 3 days.
But the weird thing is that I don't feel much muscle ache and fatigue at all...
am i not exercising properly?
But i'm like doing all the normal things leh :(
Anyways, met a lot of new people in track and there are new additions to the jumps family :D
The track people are all friendly and nice and i feel pretty much at ease with them!
Still, I should interact more sia, i'm like still quite quiet at times i guess.
On the first day, we checked in to our classrooms to put our belongings. I'm sleeping at A4.09 which is next to my base class! :D
Went for training after that.
Did hurdling for high jump again.
Lunch was chicken rice which was kinda stupid because the name of the stall as seen on the top of the packet says "xxx boneless chicken rice" but the chicken was full of bones.
walau lor, i was like just eating just the rice -.-
Went to pop in at environment council meeting during study break and i got to participate in one part of the video making :D wheeeeee. xD
Slept a while in the classroom until it was time for training.
It rained so we did indoor training.
Did some abs training, throwing medicine balls and one leg squats.
omg it's like halfway through march and my PB for one leg squats is still 2!
oh no :(
But I realised that i can only do one leg squats when my legs is warmed up o.o
Bathed after we finished training and got ready for dinner.
Dinner was like rice with LOTS of vegetables and a few pieces of chicken /fish.
Everyone was like complaining.
Watched a movie after dinner.
At first, the track captain said the movie was about spongbob squarepants and i actually believed him!
turns out it was some movie called "coach carter" which was supposed to be a very inspirational sports movie.
after the movie which was about 10.30pm, we had free time until lights out which is at 11.30pm.
So we decided to order mac's mcflurry and then the person said they will reach in about 1 hour :O
it came at 11.30pm which was supposed to be lights out but aiya, everybody was eating macs so the lights out didnt matter la.
Slept at 12am on the bare cold floor and it was a little uncomfortable but not that bad..
I kept waking up in the night, probably like every hour because well, the floor isnt very comfortable..
Ahh i'm so lazy to blog, shall just talk about the main interesting things.
-played h20 during one training cos it was raining.
playing h20 with jumpers and hurdlers is 10 times more tiring than playing it during orientation!
great workout though.
Did 15 push ups after that and i could only do like max.2 at a time :(
- had like ghost stories sharing at like 10.30pm and it was so exciting and scary at the same time!
Learnt about some ghost stories in AC and the secondary schools of fellow trackers such as nanhua (thank god i didnt go there, there's like lots of stories!)
Our track vice cap nic was telling us about this bronze sculpture of a life sized boy in the art gallery who was said to have tripped people's legs during some leadership camp, damn freaky!
Khai also talked about his own experience which was shocking, i feel like my life is so peaceful after hearing about what he encountered!
and then MS talked about the poker card in her school and i suddenly realised OMG crescent has that too!!!!!
I never knew that was supposed to be spooky although i've always wondered why it's there..
- the next day after the ghost stories night, me and yijia decided to go and explore the art gallery when we woke up in the morning, actually only i went in cos she didnt dare to.
I only took like two three steps into the gallery and i felt a little spooked out so we left.
But later, all of us who were at the ghost story sharing session decided to go together.
The guys, being the bravest, went in front and we were exploring and exploring and then we reached the last masterpiece: the bronze crouching boy sculpture!
I only had a glance at it from the side and omg it seriously looks damn real!
Even the guys got freaked out and we all ran out of the gallery xD
I shall explore it with my class SOMEDAY :D
- hillary introduced us to this iphone game called "speed tapping" which got nic super addicted.
He was like a drug addict craving for drugs when he was playing that game.
his eyes were so focussed on the screen..
- we had lunch on the last day, wednesday, at ikea!
Havent been there for DAMNNNN long!
At least 2 years i think.
Ate the pasta meatball combo plus a cinnamon roll.

Only the meatball was nice, the soup was super healthy because there's like lots of vege bits inside but i didnt really like that taste =X
the cinnamon roll tasted quite bland at the start but as i ate layer by layer, it got more and more delicious because there's more and more cinnamon.
But Auntie Anne's cinnamon pretzel is still the best! :D

Nothing more to say about the camp i guess.
I'm damn tanned now :(

the tan line on my arm is like a bit of a gradient because the amount of exposure to the sun is different as different times

on the other hand, the tan line on my ankle is freaking obvious
cos my socks are at the same height all the time T.T
Gross TTM :(
I think I should go swimming/suntanning tmr to get rid of the tan line but that means that i will be damn tan already haiz
But i love high jump so i'm staying in track no matter what :)

Meiqi said she's having MRC camp tmr and i'm actually quite keen on going, camps are fun!
maybe i should pop in and steal her food xD

Lots of homework to complete!!!!
Time to chiong tmr.
Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

2011-03-12T20:59:00.002+08:00

It's March holidays! :)
Which is to me, self study break.
Time to consolidate everything i've learnt in the past 4 weeks and to prepare myself for term 2.
I have track training camp from monday to wednesday which will make me miss my environment council meeting and envt council cip :(
OG outing on friday (i hope), it's organised by me but i havent even thought of anything we can do!
Meeting with Jane on saturday and i have no idea what we are going to do either haha
There's this world water day on sunday and idk what's the plan by ACEC.
Hopefully this coming week will be productive and exciting :D

2011-03-10T00:34:00.002+08:00

Even though I'm still not very close to my class yet but I enjoy being with them.
The other day, we (illegally) took the lift to the 7th floor and throughout the lift journey, the guys were all trying to hide their faces in case we get caught and then when we were about to reach the 7th floor, one of them said "in jesus name we pray, amen" and then the door opened and they all rushed out.
The little amusement to liven my day :)

HAHAHAHAHA WTH!

2011-03-05T00:03:00.003+08:00

I need to be productive tomorrow.
Things I have to do:
- go for track from 9am to 2pm
- buy a new school bag (wtf sia, my sunblock's cover fell out and the whole thing just spread all over my bag, damn gross! and it killed my earpiece so i have no music to listen to now!!! suckyyyyy)
- pack my stuff
- cash in my cheque that i got from working for two days =X
- do all my tutorials T.T

I think i only can do the first 4.
Once I look at my tutorial, i feel damn sian.
Argh.
The j3s got their results today but i'm not sure how it went because i had chem spa and thus couldnt go and see.
I don't think it was really marvelous though =X
HC has like more than 200 people getting more than 7 distinctions????
AC only had like about 100 people getting more than 3 distinctions for the batch of 2009!
Do you see the DISTINCTION?
hahahaha.
A levels sounds like a much tougher mountain to scale as compared to O levels.
Seriously, i'm just starting lessons and i'm dying already.
i miss crescent life :(
I hope I can be promoted to j2 (^_^)
remembering ting feng's pet phrase: "you're in a jc, not MI. If you don't study hard, then be prepared to enjoy orientation 2012" sth along that lines. It's hilarious and sarcastic but yet true.
I feel so noob in my class because everyone else seems so smart.
I need to jiayou jiayou jiayou so that i will never ever have to get tuition in my whole entire life :)

2011-03-03T20:17:00.002+08:00

My $11.90 Dory Fish with Rice
I can get the same thing with a more homely feel at JustAcia for $5.90!

The cans I have collected :D :D 24 in total muahahha

tsk tsk half drunk ice coffee in the LIBRARY!

Yupi gummy burger, yumi gummy pizza, BEAR!
IN THE LIBRARY AGAIN!
Tsk, AC people seriously have lots more to work on for keeping the environment clean.

2011-03-03T19:31:00.002+08:00

WEDNESDAY
Hahaha my first time being late in AC! :D
After that emo night of wanting to pon school, i woke up at only 7.45am the next day.
But I don't know why, I just felt like going to school.
There's like class committee voting today (not that i'm going to be contesting for anything since i'm the envt rep alr), then there's track then there's my OF talk and lectures tutorials.
So I decided to go to school and I reached school at 9am.
Wrote down my name at the security guard's office then went to find my class.
When I found my class at the candeck, I felt weird.
Like I was invisible.
Went for Physics and when I tried to turn up the temperature of the air con in the room (because it was at a freaking 16degrees!), i got scolded by the physics teacher!
WTF.
Damn pissed.
I was in a total bad mood for the whole day because of her!
Anyway, I managed to stay awake through all the lectures but I realised that I didn't bring any lecture notes at all -.-
So I was just sitting through lectures with a blank foolscap in front of me that stayed blank throughout the whole day.
Class committee voting was nothing much, the girls took pretty much all the class comm roles.
Track was great because it was super slack.
I had OF talk before that which i took the opportunity to complain to my vice principal, who is also the teacher i/c of envt council, about the horrible physics teacher who ruined my day)
i missed slopes training cos of OF talk so i just did 2 rounds warmup and stretching and waited for the jumpers to return from the slopes.
Did the hurdles drills and then just stoned for like half an hour watching people do relays and 400m time trials.
After the stoning, did some medicine ball and my arms really have no power at all T.T
Tried doing squats again today and i managed to do 2 in a row! :D
Aiming for 5 in a row by the end of March haha.
Is that too much to ask from myself ? =X
Anyway, training ended at around 5.30pm.
Today's a really sad day :(

Thursday
Nothing much to talk about today..
other than the fact that i served DC after school because I was late yesterday.
DC is fun!
We had to help out with arranging stuff for A levels results collection tmr.
There are so many pamphlets from universities for the j3s!
I was sweating by the time we were done but it felt good.
But this kind of DC doesnt happen often, usually we just sit in the library in this lonely cubicle to do work for 1 and a half hours.
But it's still not very DC-ish..
Actually I could have produced a parent's letter but I didn't want to because i wanted to experience DC.
When I sms-ed my form teacher that I won't be submitting a parent's letter to him because I would like to go for DC, he replied "Er...U don't have to go if u can produce a letter but i guess u can sit in the library if u want to?"
hahaha such a cute answer.

It's can collection day tomorrow!
I'm lazy to blog already =X
I need to be more productive argh, but i feel so sleepy now!

ACS 125 Video

2011-03-03T19:07:00.000+08:00

The music is super duper nice!
And the whole video is just indescribable <3333

2011-03-02T01:03:00.004+08:00

Can I pon school tmr?
I really feel so exhausted.
Physically from the track training +cross country.
I was LAST for cross country wtf!
like seriously last, the guy, who was in charge of making sure no one is left behind in the race, was beside me halfway throughout constantly asking me whether i'm feeling okay, whether i can continue, telling me it's just a stretch more to go etc.
I felt so....noob.
I felt so ashamed of myself
I wanted to just lie on the grass patch and stare into space there.
But ah well, i cant do that la.
I'm mentally exhausted from all the homework.
I haven't started on them but once i look at it, i just feel so tired and lethargic.
I'm emotionally exhausted from being unable to bond well with my class and seeing what I saw today at PS.
I need a break.

2011-02-28T01:10:00.002+08:00

If there were lessons later, I would be utterly screwed because I havent done 3/4 of my work hahaha.
The only work that I've completed is my first math tutorial of the year but unfortunately (in a way), it's only due next monday so I could have better spent my time on some homework that was required to be handed up on wednesday or something.
Thankfully, it's Founder's Day celebration on Monday and Tuesday so that means no lessons and no extra homework and no need to hand in homework and more time to do homework! (Y)
I'm seriously not in the JC mood yet.
I like tutorial lessons much more than lectures.
Falling asleep during lectures is so common for me urgh.
Slept throughout a maths lecture the other day and missed the whole teaching of hyperbolas, ellipses and other stuff. shit.
There's "cross country" later and track after that.
I'm sort of having second thoughts about track already.
The fatigue, the loneliness, the opportunity cost hahahahaha.
If I join track, it means that I can't volunteer for NDP and the opportunity cost incurred is that I can't enjoy the fun and excitement of NDP and interacting with people.
Sucky ttm.
But I really want a CCA that can let me exercise because I don't want to turn into a fat pig in JC.
Plus, I hope to be able to like the President of Environment Council cos that would sound cool hahaha
And I should have the 资格 right?? Since I'm so seriously enthusiastic about saving the planet!
Argh but I bet it's just fat hope man, I thought so this way for track way back in sec 3 too and look at how it turned out >:(

I've been coordinating stuff in the class and I have this little fear that I might cause some classmates to dislike me because I'm like asking all my classmates for their contacts so that I can type it out and send to all of them.
This is probably something a class rep should do but i'm just volunteering to do it.
If someone is really sensitive (like me), they would probably misread this action of mine as COMPETITION.
But seriously, I'm already the environment rep and I have not much interest in being the class rep.
However, I do hope the class rep and assistant class rep and welfare rep are loud people who can capture everyone's attention because they really need to lead the class and bond the class and whatsoever.
I still find myself unable to fit in sometimes.
Need to put in more effort to be friendly!
I miss my OG :(
I miss Jane :(
I miss JuMaMeiQiSa :(
I miss QPS 6A'06 :(
Oh this reminds me, because of track, I probably can't go for Speech Day!!! :(

2011-02-26T00:09:00.002+08:00

Yay I did my first duty as an environment rep + member of environment council today!
I actively got my class to drink can drinks and to wash it and pass to me :D
Well I wouldnt say it was a total success though.. I was hoping for 50 cans but in the end there were only 33cans and half of them came from sze wei!
But not bad liao bah, shouldn't expect too much.
I am seriously in awe of how the top class can get 600 cans in such a short time.
They probably dug into dustbins and stuff eek.
I need to remember to turn off the lights, fans/aircons when i leave the class unless there's another class waiting outside.
SAVE THE EARTH :D
There's track tmr and i'm probably going.
I know it's going to be exhausting and i'll probably die in the first few weeks because my stamina has always been bad but I'm going to give it a try.
I really feel damn slack if i were to only join environment council..
It has only been 1 week into official lessons and I'm already lagging behind,
don't understand lectures, don't know how to do tutorials... T.T

2011-02-23T20:29:00.002+08:00

members of the Environment Council! :D
There's meiqi also but she doesnt like taking photos so she took this for me and yijia
whilst trying to brighten the picture, i noticed this sign behind yijia's head.
It says" Please do not throw rubbish into the recycling bin"
I think our biscuit wrapper is a rubbish but it's PLASTIC....right?
Environmentalists FTW!
I can't believe I actually quit track and joined this.
Everyone I told is shocked.

Today was madness.
There were like physics tutorial, then chem lecture then math tutorial then econs lecture. There was supposed to be physics lecture too but i managed to skip because i'm running competitive in the cross country.
i should ask my fellow classmates on what was being taught, my physics totally sucks now :(

one of my classmates, whom i feel is really class rep or welfare rep material, asked me today whether i was like a super introvert.
I felt that it was totally hilarious!!
I know that I seem like an introvert in my class because I really don't know how to interact with them :(
Haiz really need to work on bonding with them i guess.
And I also need to work on studying!!
I don't understand anything??!!
And I havent finish my tutorials! ahhhh

Cross country was a total fail, it rained and we couldnt run :(
I was SOOOOOO looking forward to running... seriously :(
argh.
i miss running, jumping and dancing.
I'm so fickleminded haha.

2011-02-22T22:04:00.002+08:00

picture post!

ate wendy's the other day (cant rmbr which day) and this costed me $9.45!
There's like baked potato + some chicken burger, fries and coke.
It's a decent price i guess?
But definitely not what i can afford to eat everyday oops =X

played scrabble with meiqi's 2 og mates last week and i formed "ogl"!
I think i want to apply to be a OGL if i can because i'm sure it's going to be awesome :D

jane's valentine's day present for me <333
there's like this big packet of wang wang + this cute little button + hershey's chocolate (below)

this is addictively delicious, the delightful experience would have been heightened if i didnt have braces tsk

ate secret recipe with my mum for lunch some day last week
It's quite worth it!
$9.90 (not including gst and service charge) for a main course such as lasagna (like that i ordered) plus a drink
there was this lady having sort of an interview at the table beside me and i was listening intently =X
damn kaypoh
she was saying that she works well in teams and she has worked at another company before or sth
I could have picked up some tips on how to handle interviews xD

ate chocolate indulgence cake again :D

bought a new wallet from esprit!
It's quite nice to use because now i can clearly see my collection of coins and thus i can maximise efficiency by being able to rapidly choose the right amount of coins i need to pay for my food

end of post :D

2011-02-20T12:34:00.003+08:00

Second day of official official school.
I should start by talking about other incidents that happened last week.
Hmm I don't think I have been posting much about my daily life recently.
Just posted like the "headlines" of my life haha

Actually there's nothing much to talk about.
Went for the killer track training on wednesday, the training that all the seniors don't looks very happy to talk about =X
It was seriously a killer for me and meiqi, even though the intensity for us is like only half??!!
The seniors had to run up this slope at one north seven times while me and meiqi only did it 3 times!
Then we went back to school to do hurdle drills.
There were like about 20 hurdles arranged in a straight line.
For the first exercise, we just had to step over the hurdle and complete the whole thing.
For the second exercise, we had to do some idk how to do thing at the end of the hurdles.
After that was the quite tiring step across one hurdle and crouch under the next.
And they definitely saved the worst for the last!
We had to weave between the hurdles, sort of crawling but our knees weren't allowed to touch the ground.
It LOOKED manageable..but when i got to like half of it, my legs were like totally aching like shit already, i seriously fell to my knees of exhaustion 3/4 through the thing and after i completed it, i couldnt find the energy to stand up at all!
omg..
it's a real killer.
after that, we went to do high jump. sort of. or more of learn to do back flip.
But i had like no energy left to jump liao :(
There was training on saturday but i was like exhausted and wasnt feeling well enough to do vigorous exercise so i didnt go.
instead i went shopping at orchard for my swimming suit :D
bought my swim suit from TYR at $59.90 :O :O
I really wonder how i could bear to spend so much money on something with so little cloth =X
heart ache!
Had swim pe yesterday! :D
i decided to join the beginner group with my classmate.
but beginner's group feels boring because the coach just made us do paddling to and fro the training pool.
but i think the pro-er people will have tougher training since they know how to swim already then the teacher will make them do more vigorous stuff.
The queue for the bathroom wasnt as long as i thought, probably because our group ended the last so everyone was like already done bathing =X
first day of school was great because there was no lectures and the tutorials was all just talking about expectations, files and what we will be covering in the 2 years and stuff like that.
last lesson was physics SPA which felt more like a lecture so that was sleepy.
had track after physics!
somehow after doing the crawling last wednesday, monday's crawling was survivable!
I managed to finish the whole thing without stopping! :D
But the sad news is...I'm going to quit track!!!
Quite sad about it...but I think my grades will suffer if I go home and just fall asleep due to exhaustion everyday..
I could feel my noobness today during chem tutorial, nobody seemed to have any questions to ask for the tutorial but i had like a few..
haiz, wonder how my chem A1 came about sia.
anyway, i have decided to join environment council! :D
LOVE THE ENVIRONMENT <3333
But EC is supposed to be a 2nd cca so i still need to get one more..
I'm thinking about interact club but i missed both the welcome tea and the club meeting today so i'm not sure whether i can still join.
But my heart is still lingering about track.
I feel so bad for quitting :( actually the seniors still don't know about this yet, i wonder how they are going to react when me and meiqi suddenly disappear for good.
we're going to have to avoid them everyday in school because it's gonna be so awkward!
They'd go like "why you quit :( :( I'm so disappointed in you, i thought you were our beacon of truth and light!"
haha exaggerated..

today was terrible.
there were 2 lectures and 4 tutorials.
i feel so sleepy :(
Haha it's 10pm now and i havent started on any tutorials! OOPS.
Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

2011-02-15T21:36:00.002+08:00

I GOT ACCEPTED INTO DANCE!!!
wth???????
I can't believe it but I don't think there's another "Julene" in AC?
I have no idea how the acceptance is possible.
So confused now...............

2011-02-15T00:59:00.003+08:00

First day with my class.
I feel out of place.
Not everybody in my class takes PCME and i'm like thinking why am i put together with them if we are not taking the same combi??
Why can't I be in the same class as meiqi and leyi and my bpgh og mate!
There's like 1/3 of my class not taking physics lor -.-
I don't hate the people in my class but I just find it weird that i'm not put together with my friends who take the exact same thing as me and have the exact l1r5 as me.
After a mere 40minute of contact time today, our class just split into different groups and i was wandering alone.
Sad Valentine's day.
Ordered some jelly heart cake from the student council last week for self consumption.
I have mixed feelings now about everything in life.
突然间觉得我似乎与世界隔绝，我只是隐形的一个第三者，没人知道我的存在，没人关心我的死活。
okay that seems a bit exaggerated.
anyway, went for track today and i got to try out long jump and high jump! (Y)
meiqi's like a natural talent at high jump totally, she does it better than me even though it's only her first time trying!
The seniors in track are nice so i might really consider joining track again.
I got rejected for dance and choir so haiz, I guess I'm not the 料 for performing arts bah.
Got quite exhausted after the slack training (WTH) and fell asleep when i reached home.
Only woke up at like 12am to bathe AND EAT DINNER.
I'm so going to get fat la!!
byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

i am cow lyrics

2011-02-13T01:24:00.000+08:00

I think this is damn amusing.
Heard it first from my dance partner and my og rep singing and it's so amusing!!!

2011-02-13T01:04:00.002+08:00

I am half-hoping that i can get into choir and half-thinking that choir is not for me.
On one hand, I hope I can get into choir because it's a nice change of a cca and i get to expose myself to something different from running and the sun.
I hope I can get into choir because it goes to show that I'm an all-rounder: I can sing, I can run, I can jump etc etc.
I hope I can get into choir because my grandma would be extremely happy because she was from choir too when she was younger.
On the other hand, choir is not for me because very simply, given my height. I would just stand out when I sing in the choir (the guys in choir aren't really very tall).
When I went for the second round of choir audition, the teacher asked me "given your height, why don't you join netball" and upon finding out that i used to be in track, she asked "i can see that from your physique, why don't you join track again?"
It's so stereotypical, the first cca that I give the impression of is netball, either that or basketball.
But honestly, I would have that stereotype in my mind when I see people like Meiqi la xD
Anyway back to the choir thing.
Choir is not for me because I would actually prefer a cca that allows me to move. I like to move it move it~
Haha I'll just see how it goes, if choir decides to accept me then be prepared to see me on stage every morning (^_^)
if choir thinks i suck, then environmental council, here i come! :D

2011-02-09T19:24:00.001+08:00

OH I FORGOT TO MENTION SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!!!
Measured height and weight yesterday and WTFFFFF I'm 169cm!!!!!!
How can that be sia, what ever happened to my 171cm -.-
Well on the bright side, I lost 2 kg.
But I think that's cos I shrank as a whole.
Oh no, I need my 170cm :(

2011-02-09T19:06:00.002+08:00

Hmm I realised that I didn't mentio about my final subject combination.
Actually it's just the most typical combination of PCME la.
All at H2s, not sure whether I will be able to cope but I will try my best!
I hope that I can apply for a scholarship or something so that I can save some money.
Money is precious :(
And after considering for very long, I decided to drop H1 Chinese because according to past year AC's A level results, there's most people failing chinese as compared to all the other subjects!
Maybe it's cos AC is a very english school? But I don't feel safe taking chinese and scoring A because my chinese sucks hahaha.
Since I'm not intending to be a chinese teacher or whatsoever in the future, I guess whether I take Chinese or not doesn't really matter that much.
Dropping chinese means that I might be able to have more free periods to do self study and it definitely means that I have 4 extra hours to study per week as compared to meiqi haha.
I could use this extra time to watch more movies at the library xD

2011-02-09T18:12:00.002+08:00

I love AC so much.
I don't know why but I feel extremely proud to be here.
This feeling wasn't experienced while I was in Crescent probably because I was only in Sec 1 when I first went in so probably too young to feel patroitic.
In sec 4 though, I loved Crescent too!
Anyway, our lectures sort of started today.
First lecture was math.
The lecturer is quite nice and he used analogy to make our learning process a little easier.
He used a fruit juice blender to 比喻 as functions but I got a little too caught up with the fruit juice blender thing that I got a little confused =X
The lecture ended freaking fast!
But I think it's cos we started about 10 minutes late so the actual lecture was only like less than 30 minutes.
I'm dying in math and it's just the first lecture!
After we were dismissed from math, me and xiaorui were like one of the first to rush out to go to chem lecture.
But when we reached the lecture theatre, the students who were in that lecture theatre were just clearing out.
In the end, we still had to wait for a while before we could go in.
Found a pretty decent seat in the centre.
We didnt have official teaching for chem yet cos the lecturers talked about expectations and stuff.
After chem was GP in the same theatre.
Somehow time seems to pass really slow during GP.
There's this digital clock right in front of us to let us see the time.
And everytime I looked at the clock, thinking 10minutes has passed, it turns out that it has only been 2 minutes..
I don't know how I'm going to survive GP lessons in future.
When GP FINALLY ENDED, I was freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :D
But I couldn't go home because there's cca fair at 2.30pm.
My GP lecture ended at 9.50am which meant that I had about 4 hours!
Went to watch the movie "Departures" at the library.
Reminder to self: Don't ask a friend along when you watch a boring movie because you will bore others to death.
I love AC's library.
There's like loads of movies: 2012, I Not Stupid, Departures, 10 Promises to my dog (i will definitely not watch this in school, unglam to cry in school), Spiderman and many more!
To add on to it's awesomeness, there's like this music player and there's classical songs available for you to listen although I haven't really tried how that works.
And there's quite a lot of computers (around 20 i think?) for us to use, probably to do research?
I haven't had time to check out the books available there though..
Shall go some other time, well i have at least one and a half years to explore all i like.
went for the cca exhibition at 2.30pm and i feel like i'm spoilt for choice!
I signed up for choir, dance, volleyball, track and field, cross country, interact club and environmental council.
I never knew there was an environmental council until the exhibition.
According to the President of that council, they only have meetings once a month which sounds super slack??!!
If it's really that way then I think I can handle interact club + environmental council + a sport cca!
3 ccas sounds cool right!
I feel like joining track again because high jump and long jump is just so awesome!
signed up for cross country only for fun because the girl keep pestering me and meiqi.
My timing for 2.4km is like 14minutes so I don't think they will want me hehe
Choir sounds cool, volleyball is something new for me although I'm hopeless in ball games and I signed up for dance only after a lot of thought.
It's like I can't dance.
I don't even know what do I mean by that.
I just feel that dance is out of my league but I'll still go for the audition anyway to have fun xD
Maybe I will consider frisbee but after trying out frisbee yesterday, it seems so extremely tiring that I'm scared.
Plus frisbee is not a recognised cca in school so i should only join if I have free time and want to have fun.
I really want to make the most of my time in ACJC, studying hard, playing hard, making a difference in people's lives and living my life with meaning.
When I get into my class, I think I will volunteer to be the "environment rep" xD
I get annoyed when I see that people don't return their plates to the collection pails after they are done with their meal.
Maybe it's cos crescent inculcated this habit in me and i am used to returning my own plate while the students from other schools are not used to it yet.
I try to remind my OG mates to return their plates after eating and today, I even cleared a bowl that's not even mine! :D
Anyway, about the cca, I shall just go for all the trials and audition then maybe just join whichever cca accepts me.
If none of them accepts me then I will just join strategic games club!
haha jk, no way am i ever joining strategic games club, I'd prefer library club in the worst case scenario.
Oh and there's an astronomy club too, can look at stars~
the grass place where we played frisbee yesterday is a pretty nice place to look at stars at night because can see the sky!
-hahahaha the choir person just called me and ask me to go for audition on friday at 2.30pm.
I'm supposed to sing either crescent's or AC's school song. SO SCARY HAHAHA. eh i dont think she told me where to go oops-
i think that's about all that i have to post?
need to go and review my notes for today haha
MUG :D

2011-02-07T18:40:00.004+08:00

I'm a happy kid today! (so far, because right now, my grandma and mum are not at home hehe)
CNY was great this year actually because I didnt cry on the first day :D :D
I had been crying for three years consecutively tsk
Went to my dad's side family early in the morning, didnt go last year cos of time constraints.
we camwhored a little, gambled a bit and i won $4 :D
went back to my grandma's house to see my mum's side relatives after that.
The mood is so different back here, like there's less fun.
My cousins are all separated.
It makes no sense because we are all between the age of 9-19 so there shouldnt be an age gap right?
But well, technology ruins CNY gathering.
Only the three boys, who happens to be the youngest 3 out of my grandma's 6 grandchildren, were playing beyblade.
In fact, I don't remember ever being close to the cousins on my grandma's side except for Melvyn which a lot of people have the misconception that we are siblings.
So weirdddd.
Anyway, CNY managed to slip by without much mishap.
No wait, actually there were a few accidents.
Melvyn dropped my aunt's new 1-week old phone and caused it to have an ugly scratch.
When we went to that same aunt's house to play cards and have dinner, my mum accidentally broke my aunt's wine glass.
After we left my aunt's house and she was changing the water in her glass vase, she broke the vase -.-
My aunt is damn suay this year haiz
Lady Luck wasnt shining on me when I was playing cards at my aunt's house :(
I lost $10 to my uncle who's an OLD DOG!
More power x.x
That's all for new year bah.

I shall talk a bit about the cny celebration that day at school.
As much as I love AC, as much as AC's spirit warmed my heart during the 4 days of orientation, the celebration was...not as good as I expected.
The performances were really great, seriously.
I could see their effort and I'm sure I won't do half as well as the performers so I sat through the whole celebration without falling asleep!
I was trying my best to immerse myself into the celebration of cny by swaying to the songs and clapping and moving so that i don't fall asleep.
But seriously, it's really hard not to fall asleep because there's chinese orchestra, strings ensemble, guitar, angklung, indian dance, drama club and chinese/modern dance.
The chinese orchestra was okay because they played lively chinese new year songs, but the strings and guitar ensemble played these totally lullaby-ish songs that made at least 10% of the student population fall asleep.
They should have played something like "flight of the bumblebee" which would probably keep us more awake.
Haha 说得容易, I can't even played twinkle twinkle little star on any strings instrument or guitar, no wait, i can't even play a proper note!
The indian dancers were EPIC.
There were only 3 dancers, not sure whether there's really only 3 members in the indian dance society or it's cos the rest of the dancers have dancing skills that are not of good enough standard to perfom.
And the weirdest part? 2 out of the 3 dancers were Chinese!
Well this goes to show AC has racial harmony so that's a good thing right?
In fact, I am currently considering to join indian dance because it seems fun hehe
I liked the angklung performance because there were so little people and each person was in charge of shaking a note.
It's really hard to play a song like that right? Since it needs really good coordination among all the members and they did it pretty well :)
The dance by the drama club and the chinese/modern dance was good because it has a more lively song, and it's DANCE.
nuff said.
The whole thing ended really early at 9.30am :O
Went back to crescent with a bunch of crescentians and we managed to arrive just in time to watch crescent's celebration.
Crescent's celebration is so much nicer, there's like dancers and acrobats from china to come and do cool stunts.
Saw my chinese teacher and I was thinking whether I should go up to him and consult him about H1 chinese but that would be weird so i didnt.
And I saw SOMEONE :D :D :D
hahahahahaha.
Not a lot of people went back though.
Me, meiqi, qihui, yingshan and luisa went to have lunch at sumo house tgt since we havent met in a while.
I feel odd wearing AC uniform and going out.
Actually all of us wore our JC uniform except for meiqi who hasn't altered her skirt.
I felt old!
Went home at like 2pm to prepare for reunion dinner.
-skips to today-

Back in school after a really long break.
My first official day of school in my AC uniform :)
I realised that there's this henderson guy who went to AC and he takes the same bus at the same bus stop as me!
Played blow wind blow with his OG that time.
there was chapel today and i was sitting between my dance partner and the commonwealth guy whom i think are the best singers in my OG.
chapel wasnt that bad today, the last speaker finished up her speech pretty quickly as compared to the one we had last week..
oh oh there's another new member today!
it's like so late already still got people coming in :O
after chapel, there was house meeting.
my dance partner is in the same house as me! :D
realised later that the OGs were arranged according to the last two numbers of our ic so half of our OG will be in one house then the other half in another house.
I signed up for the cross country competitive run, it's only 2.6km~ crescent's one was like 3.3km.
meiqi's joining the competitive run too so i can run with her! :D
i hope there's prizes for like the top 50, that will give me the motivation to chiong ah!!!!!
I hope it's like a free towel or some AC water bottle or a sunblock? =X
There's interhouse games too! But that's later in april.
Thinking of signing up for like 100m only.
Don't really want 400m because i consider that as long distance liao.
Don't want relays too because i don't think I will be able to collaborate with my team mates and i'll probably drop the baton or something.
There's no high jump or long jump :(
But I think we will get to do jumps during PE!
Hopefully.
PE sounds awesome (as usual) because we're going to have swimming, ball games, gymnastics, aerobics, jumps (!!!! :D ), throwing and lots of other exciting activities :D
And how could I ever forget, NAPFA :D
The head of PE teacher said that there will be cash prizes for the top performing class and the top performer in a certain category or something.
I need to train for my sit and reach so that it doesnt destroy my pretty perfect score.
And I need to train for my SBJ so that maybe I can be the top performing girl in that!
*prays that no girl in AC can jump over 2m*
I feels crazily competitive, what is getting into me nowadays :O
I think I should start studying because if I fail promos, I'm screwed.
Had this CCP talk and they talked about CIP stuff which felt so intriguing.
I want to join KidsRead which is like teaching young children how to read.
Interacting with young kids is definitely going to be fun :)
I had this buddy reading programme when I was in p5 where I had to teach the new p1s, who are weaker in english, how to read.
hmm you know what, the girl that I buddied should be in sec 1 now!!
WOW now i feel really old.
:OOOO I just tried to find her on fb and i think i found her!
It's this lilo and stitch display pic and that person went to "QPS" so i think it's her!
I feel like such a stalker haha.
anyway, I feel like volunteering for stuff and doing my part to help the less fotunate.
I want to make my JC life enriching instead of just mugging for As everyday.
School most likely ends at 1.10pm and I'm thinking about going to the library tmr to rent a movie to watch :D
Not sure whether I'm allowed to though, shall just go try my luck xD

Some pictures:

my mum, janice and me camwhoring
cant see soon min because she's jumping

i decided to give gong cha another chance and it still didnt taste really nice..
i'm sorry gong cha, my taste buds don't like you.

pampered myself with a slice of chocolate indulgence from secret recipe, it's heavenly good!

group photo at mrs tan's house
went to my physics teacher's house on sat for class gathering.
my teacher damn pro, her 2 daughters and 1 son were all from RJC :O
She said that's 19 people in the class got A1, 17 A2 and 5 B3. I'm one of the A2s :(
Hmm wait the number is wrong but it's something like that bah.
Physics was supposed to be my best subject T.T

nothing much to post already.
Tmr's the day that I submit my subject combination and officially drop chinese.
华文，再见！我爱你哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
chinese is such a beautiful subject.
byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

RI(JC) Orientation Batch Dance 2009

2011-02-06T18:39:00.000+08:00

so cute xD

Tsubasa Chonicles - You are my Love (piano)

2011-02-06T02:48:00.001+08:00

Told my dance partner just now on fb chat that listening to calm and slow songs relaxes the mind but i realise it makes me more sad than i already am -.-
but still, this song is nice.
Cheer up, miss farmer! And everyone else too :D

ACJC '11 Orientation - FINAL MASS DANCE

2011-02-05T01:46:00.000+08:00

I will seriously reminisce about this for really long.
ahhh dancing :)
It just puts a smile on my face :D

2011-02-02T00:18:00.003+08:00

I am starting to dislike CNY.
It has become a day of boasting and show off and doing nothing but eating,
and a lot of arguments at home every night T.T
:(
argh, i was in a super high mood until i stepped into the house :/

2011-01-31T22:47:00.003+08:00

Third day of school.
The morning was so freaking cold :(
I left my home at 7am but the sky was still a little dark.
Reached school and went to where my OG was supposed to sit.
I stared at the person sitting beside me for a while and i realised it's my dance partner!
haha, he cut his hair and put on contact lens so i could hardly recognise him!
We had chapel today which felt like a rock concert because we were singing songs and stuff.
I sang along even though I'm not a christian, the songs have a very nice tune.
After chapel, we went for Chem lecture.
The chem teacher seems pretty decent, of course still cant compare to mr lee who's like the most entertaining chem teacher ever =X
After chem was physics lecture.
physics wasn't as interesting, but well how much do i expect, it's physics.
after physics, most of our group decided to skip all the other lectures since we already know what we want to take.
Practised the dance and played games.
H20 is seriously tiring if you are made to run more than once.
Oh during our lunch break, i bought bottled ice milo from school because i havent tried it before and unfortunately, when i tried to open it, the whole thing spilt on my pouch, skirt, blouse, the table and the floor! :O
Great damage and utterly gross!
had to change into my pe shirt and fbt which made me look really weird cos everyone else is wearing full school uniform.
had mass cheering, i felt that today's one didnt have that much spirit as compared to usual? or maybe i'm just thinking too much.
Had games.
There's this drip drip drop game which i totally died at.
everyone sits in a circle and one person walks around and drips water from a waterbottle on people's head.
that person will choose one unlucky fellow and pour the whole bottle of water on him/her then run one circle back to that person's seat before that unlucky person catches him.
i got poured TWICE :O
And both times i was just stoning thinking "wth just happened" =X
after that we played this musical chairs thing and our group lost so we had to roll in soapy water.
I'm like really "on" to do anything one haha.
went out for dinner with like 4 other OG mates after the whole day.
So many people couldn't make it so it was just 5 of us in total.
Well i do prefer small groups actually.
We went to ccab because our og rep left his phone with our hockey female ogl.
ate at some prata place near ccab.
i ate mutton murtabak and it took me a pretty long time to eat it because of my braces.
and i was busy removing much of the onions in the murtabak.
my dance partner ordered this milo godzilla thing which is like ice milo + milo powder + ice cream!

It looks so delicious!
I should try that some other time xD
went home at around 9pm.
it was a great day :)

got our orientation package and there's a super chio planner inside!
and got an orientation shirt plus a clan shirt <3333
i wore the clan shirt to go for dinner because my pe shirt was wet from rolling in soapy water (eek!)

look look so pretty stickers at the last page of the planner!!!!!!!!!!!!
AWESOME!
I love ACJC :D

2011-01-31T12:16:00.002+08:00

I just realised I didnt blog about my first Koi experience!
Tried Koi at Clementi's outlet on 24th january (which is exactly one week ago!)
I didnt know what to try so I just ordered Bubble Milk Green Tea with pearls.
The queue was average, about 10 people because I went at like 11am on a Monday morning.
Got my milk tea in less than 10 minutes :)
The pearl serving is huge! Like 1/3 of the cup.
But unfortunately, I am not an aficionado of pearls -.-
When I took the first sip, it felt heavenly, the milk tea was so smooth and delicious.
Or maybe I just felt that way because people keep raving about it and i naturally think it's good.
But after drinking about half of it, I got a little sick =X

I tried Koi again today!
Tried the caramel milk tea and i got it in less than 5 minutes today!
Took a first sip, AND IT SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GROSSSSSSSSS.
It was idk too sweet for me or what, it just made me sick.
I felt a little nauseous after forcing myself to finish it in order not to waste my $2.90.
I think it can be compared to gong cha!
Bleaugh.
I should just stick to the milk tea next time.

It's like 12.15am and I have school tomorrow so I should really go and sleep now!
Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

[edit]
Should I take H1 chinese?
What cca should i join?
Dilemma :(

Kelly Poon in Bossini Be Happy Dance Video SG

2011-01-30T23:04:00.000+08:00

Hahahahah my favourite cheer up song! I should totally go and learn the dance and sing it to all the sad people! Be happy~

2011-01-29T17:29:00.003+08:00

Second day of school!
We sat in our OGs during assembly today and mine was like at the same spot where i sat on the first day of school xD
got to hear the awesome choir sing again and today they sang the school song too!
When we were dismissed from assembly, we went for introductory lectures.
First was GP then after that was KI, but i skipped the KI intro lecture because i'm not eligible to take it, minimum requirement A2 for english, this sucks :(
The few of us who didnt go to the KI lecture went to play games with another group.
We played blow wind blow and some squirrel hunter game.

i got forfeited at the squirrel hunter game along with some other people and we had to do the mass dance.
I forgot like 1/3 of the dance during the forfeit :(
i thought i had it all down pat the night before.
my practising for 10times is wasted =X
after the forfeit, we played blow wind blow.
during the blow wind blow game, i sat with the fairfield guy for quite a while because all the voices of the people who went up were too soft so we couldnt even hear what they wanted so we just stoned there =X
then there was this one that said "people who are wearing yellow" then me and the fairfield guy just changed places haha.
i got up once and i called for people who are wearing white which is like pretty much 3/4 of them xD
played mrt after that but i didnt get called at all :D
the KI people came back halfway during the game.
after that, argh i cant remember what we did.
went for Econs lecture which i was totally lost and what the lecturer was saying..
I am so going to die in econs.
-sidetracks-
OMG I JUST FOUND A CRACK AT THE BOTTOM OF MY TABLET!!!!! AHHHHH..
how can that be :(
:( :( :(
and my batter life totally sucks, it died in half an hour -.-
i am a bad master =X
-back to topic-
had mass cheering session and we learnt quite a few new cheers today, one of which is a hokkien cheer which makes me feel like i'm spewing vulgarities whenever i say it -.-
and we learnt the couple dance today :D
the girls and guys had to stand in height order then pair like that.
And because there's more guys in my OG, i think there's like 4 guys who have to dance together.
i'm paired with the geylang methodist guy who, i must say, is pretty good at dancing!
the couple dance felt harder to learn because it required more hand-leg coordination esp at two parts.
The rest of the dance is okay.
the fairfield guy who was standing beside me is like a seriously hilarious dancer.
He cant do the dance routine nicely but when he does his own "shaking" or whatever you call that, it's so funny!
after the dance, we went to play games.
Played captain's ball but with a version that we would get splashed in blue stuff if we dropped the ball.
Thankfully, I didnt drop any ball :D
The highlight of the day is the MUD ROLL!
It's supposedly an AC tradition so everyone has to do it.
We had to race against another team to see which group crawled across the mud pool faster.
And thankfully (again!), our group won!
The losing group had to roll themselves in mud =X
I had abrasions on my knees because the mud pool's base was like rough.
My first injury of the year :(
But the experience was great :)

Oh I bought my uniform in school because there was this time when i wasnt attending any lecture and had free time + the queue for uniform was short so i went to buy it.

this is my uniform in it's original form.
The skirt is like made for only reshma or sth, so freaking long, even longer than crescent's one i think.
went to queensway to alter it today and this is how it looks like now:

Looks more AC-ish but my OGL said i'm not allowed to use a drawstring for my blouse so my blouse is pretty short :(
All blames on my long body tsk.

Oh I didnt mention that I WALKED HOME! xD
At first I wanted to take bus but the bus all looked so full so i decided to just aiya heck, and walk home.
It took me about 40minutes (includes buying sweet talk and bread)
I should try again on tuesday or something, a full concentrated brisk walk home and see how long it takes xD
that's about all on my second day of school :D

2011-01-27T20:07:00.003+08:00

First day of orientation was just A-W-E-S-O-M-E.

Shall just start from when i woke up.
I woke up at 6.30am, after bathing and putting on my school uniform, i felt really weird.
I'm like wearing my school uniform but i'm not going to my school.
Took 198 at my bus stop at around 7.05am.
There were quite a few sec sch students who are most probably going to either ACJC like me or ACSI.
Felt so weird........
And I started feeling a bit insecure and scared, like a Primary 1 kid.
The distance to AC is only 2.3km! To crescent was 2.7km~
Okay i just calculated, it's still 36cents.
hey since AC's only 2.3km, that's less than NAPFA's 2.4km.. then i can run/jog/walk to school everyday! Then I can save 36 cents everyday plus i can train for napfa plus i can lose weight! hahaha
anyway back to my bus ride.
dropped off at the "opp acjc stop" and there were lots of other school people on the pavement opposite.
i was scared ttm!
Waited for meiqi outside the gate for a while because i didnt want to go in alone but she was going to be late so i went in with the other crescentians first.
on the pathway to the auditorium, there's like 2 lines of AC people on my left and right mass shouting "welcome to AC".
I still feel weird at that time!
Not in the enthu mood yet.
Went to the hall and then we had to all stand up for the national anthem.
The choir people came out and stood around the "talking stand" (i have no idea what's that called).
And then the whole national anthem was like acapella!
FREAKING COOL I TELL YOU!
Singing the national anthem suddenly felt like an art rather than an obligation!
Their voices was so melodious that the national anthem actually sounded really cool!
However, I dont think any of the J2s and the new J1s sang because they might be thinking that their voice would spoil this lovely melody echoing in the auditorium. At least I felt that way.
When the choir finished singing the national anthem, I really had this urge to clap but it's a solemn moment because we have to say the pledge after that so clapping is like totally wrong la.
There was devotions after the pledge where this girl went to the talking stand and told us some motivational quotes and some other stuff plus quotations from the bible.
I hope I don't have to learn the bible =X
Devotions is quite a nice thing as a whole because it gave me some kind of spiritual support and made me unknowningly feel a sense of belonging to the school. (a bit kua zhang)
After devotions, the principal introduced us to the head of departments, vice principal and president of student council.
I cant remember all the name of any teachers at all =X
but it's okay, i can just greet them with "good morning, sir/madam".
The principal dismissed the j2s for lessons after that and then she gave us a talk, followed by the vice principal, then the other vice principal and lastly the discipline master.
The discipline master looks really scary *shivers in fear*
I'd better be like a good girl like a good girl.
Had break after the last talk.
Went to the canteen to find some food and i bought cheese sandwich in the end.
It's $1.70!!!!
I havent really seen the prices of the other food.
maybe i should bring home food like make my own sandwich.
after the break, we had a talk by our level head and about subject combinations.
It's weird that the school encourages students to take 3 H2 and 1 H1...
Only if you score 8points and below then you can take 4 H2.
well since i'm eligible, i might as well take it.
If cant handle then drop lor.
so it's physics chem math econs for me :) the most typical combination haha
at around i duno what time, the j2s started introducing their "clans" to us.
It's FREAKING COOL!
I particularly like the dance from the clan with the green glowing gloves.
They danced to like a g6 and there was tutting!
Tutting is totally awesome!
I'm in Mzonka! :) Such a cool name right!
My group has like a great variety of ppl, there's like nanhua, sji, acsi, mgs, cedar, fairfield etc
Too bad no other crescentians to be with me.
well but it's okay, my OG consists of great people so i dont need to 依靠 people! (Y)
we had a round of introduction first.
most of my group mates are like from passive ccas like ncc and npccc and i'm like the only one in track..
after the introduction, we played this game called "baby if you love me, will you smile for me"
I dont think the name of the game is that long but that's what you have to say.
We have to sit in a circle then one person in the centre will go up to someone in the circle and ask that question and try to make that person laugh.
this guy (i seriously cant rmbr who!) was first and the first person he asked was me! hahaha
being the joyful person i am, i started laughing even before he finished asking his question.
so it was my turn to ask someone "whether they love me" but it seems like everybody is so good at this game, no one even smiled :(
in the end, i got up twice while most people didnt even get or got only one.
My female dancer OGL is like super good at this game, she had like lots of poses and expression which made me really surprised why those guys didnt find it funny.
Played mrt and some adjective name thing.
Had lunch after that.
I only ate my cheese sandwich because firstly, i didnt want to queue and secondly, i cant eat much with braces.
after lunch, changed into our pe shirt and had games! :D
okay there was mass cheering at the bleachers which made my throat hoarse.
the first game we played after the cheering was this quite lame game where one person from another OG sits on a chair blindfolded and there's a merly stuff toy underneath the chair.
Then our group have to have one person to go and try taking the stuff toy away without the seated person realising someone from our group is going to steal merly.
the fairfield guy's one was the coolest.
he just casually walked there, took merly and walked back and the seated person didnt even notice anything xD
after that, we played this gross game where we have to slide in soapy water, underneath chairs and tables and challenge with another group to see who completed the task faster.
i pity the guys who are of bigger build and just got stuck between the legs of the chairs =X
doing the soapy water task made my abdomen feel like i did 100 crunches.
maybe i should slide in soapy water more then maybe i will get 6 pacs xD
kidding.
my front of my body was all wet but my back was dry
after that, i can't really remember what we did.
we played amoeba (which made me feel like i was the rope in tug-of-war)
okay shall talk more about this.
amoeba is a game played by two teams.
it starts with two people who link arms and try to catch people from the opposite team to join the chain.
at the end of 8minutes, the team that has most people uncaught wins.
and i was chosen to be the representative from my team to start first because i'm a tracker (and supposedly to have the best stamina to run around for 8minutes)
the other group sent this guy who looks pretty beng to me (no offence)
and then before the game started i suddenly realised he has braces too!
and i was laughing and telling him "hey you have braces too"
then we started playing.
this guy from my group ran out of the game area and had to join the amoeba so he was on my side.
and then the next few people who got caught are guys too!
Can you imagine??? Like three guys from each side pulling my arm cos they want to run in different directions
my arms almost broke..
actually in fact, i think i'm stronger than the other guy who started with me haha.
when the chain got longer, the force multiplied by the perpendicular distance was much higher and i almost flew away. (totally exaggerating already)
we lost :(
and my male OGL sacrificed himself in the forfeit by doing the mud roll.
but our whole group is doing it tmr!
after all the games, we learned the mass dance!
MASS DANCE :)
I love mass dances.
And awesomely, our female dancer OGL was the choreographer for the dance so she was really great in teaching.
However, the dance was like probably too fast for us and we couldn't remember the steps so we were just anyhow doing =X
and the dance is uploaded on youtube! haha now i can go practise at home.
i think i'm probably the one in my OG who bothers practising at home =X
we're learning couple dance tmr!
reminds me of audi xD
i havent played audi's couple dance for like probably 2 years.
i'm sure tomorrow will be an awesomer day!
<3 AC!

[edit] i'm sunburnt like a lobster! Need to bring sunblock tomorrow liao.

2011-01-23T14:28:00.007+08:00

After a long night of thought, I have decided to spend my day blogging haha and i shall make this my longest post ever BECAUSE it happens to be my 200th post! :D
Hmm I last blogged a proper post on 14 January 2011 which means I have 9 days of events drifting away from my brain.

15jan.
I can't remember what happened in the morning and afternoon of 15 January, but i know that i went with my uncle, aunt and melvyn to chinatown at night.
Our main purpose was to witness the lighting up of chinatown and to see firecrackers but in the end when the firecrackers exploded(right term?), we were in the middle of chinatown street and we couldnt see anything except for hearing the sounds.
It wasn't as crowded as I thought it would be because I remember that when I went last year, i was really squashed like mad but this year there was enough space for me to walk pretty comfortably.
no pictures on 15 jan.

16jan.
I went out with my mum, my uncle aunt and melvyn (again! haha)
When my mum and I reached PS, my uncle they all weren't here yet then just nice I happened to see that there was NO QUEUE at Gong Cha!
Of course, I started pestering my mum to go and buy it and she, having not tried Gong Cha before too, 爽快地答应了！
I ordered a Gong Cha Green Milk Tea (forgot the exact name) while my mum ordered purple plum tea. Total cost was $4.70
We had to only wait for 5 minutes to get our tea.

We ate at Just Acia for lunch and for once, I tried something new: Creamy Spaghetti which costs $8.90

I was only willing to try it because my aunt was treating = i don't need to form out my own money so why be so miser and keep eating tori katsu and dory fish in ginger sauce =X

After lunch, we took mrt to takashimaya because my grandma suddenly came to join us and she couldnt walk so far.

-sidetracks- OMG MY GRANDMA TRACKS ME :O She go and 偷看 my cupboard and found my chinese new year clothes which was supposed to kept a secret until CNY then I flaunt it to her AHHHHHH. :(

okay back to the story.
went to taka to spend all the vouchers that we have.
I have like $290 while my uncle has about $200. muahaha
In the end, nothing caught my eye so the only thing that I spent my vouchers on was a new water boiler for my grandma.
My uncle refuse to use his vouchers saying "you're staying in the house so it is your responsibility to pay for stuff that spoilt." blehhhh
The water boiler is totally GROSS okay!
It cause the Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (i still remember my physics! hahahaha) to trip and the plastic in the water boiler was all melted and it was swimming in the water and it smelt terrible (the burnt plastic smell)
that's all for 16 jan.

17jan.
Today's the day where I got my braces brackets! :D
Before my 2 years of food abstinence (a bit exaggerated), I went to eat Pork Katsu Curry Don at Ion.

Yummy!
Curry is supposed to be the ultimate killer for braces because it stains the braces.
After putting on my brackets, i cant remember what happened because I have no pictures to help me remember.

-fast forwards-

18jan.
Went back to my dental clinic again to insert the wire and put the rubberbands on.
Guess what colour i chose? :D
ORANGE!
I wanted to get green and black (ben 10 colour) but black is not recommended as a rubberband color because it would make my teeth seems dirty/yellow.
Officially having my braces is kinda torturous because the rubberband made my teeth so tight that it hurts when i even touch them.
I wonder why the teeth wouldn't break due to the high pressure exerted by the rubberband.
end of 18 jan.
I had slight ulceration on my left top inner lip because the braces keep rubbing against my inner lip :(
And my lips were so chapped and dry because I couldnt moist my lips.

19jan.
I was told to put wax on my braces before sleeping so that I wont get ulcers while I am sleeping and the wax did work.
Went to the salon at commonwealth mrt to get a haircut.
I wanted to trim my hair and get a fringe but the hair stylist only gave me a fringe.
Well never mind about my hair then, it's pretty fine now the way it is.
To my hair: Cos you're amazing, just the way you are~ :D
Spent the whole night packing my house's living room.
The whole room seems more spacious and more echoish now because we threw away the big and bulky VCD player that was of little utilitarian value.
But expectedly, the first thing my grandma did when she came home was to do a spot check on how clean the living room really was.
She touched the wall, the window grill, the table and walked around to feel whether the floor is dusty.
Well I think our cleaning skills passed (:

-sidetracks again- I'm actually foruming and blogging alternatively and look what i saw on one of the threads

"Good attempt, but errorneous. Since alkenes are trigonal planar about their sp2 hybridized carbons, there is little steric hinderance for the incoming electrophile. The correct reason is that of electronics : of the two possible carbocation intermediates, the secondary carbocation is more stable than the primary carbocation (alkyl groups are electron donating by induction and hyperconjugation). Consequently, the pathway with the more stable carbocation requires a lower activation energy, the rate of reaction is faster, more of this pathway's product is formed, and hence we label this product as the major product.

This is the basis for Markovnikov's rule (which may fail in more complex cases, eg. addition of hydrogen halide to 3,3,3-trichloropropene. Draw the full mechanism to figure out why)."

I was like totally wide-eyed, WTH? I can't wait for JC life..

back to story.

20jan.
Went out with luisa, meiqi, reshma and qihui.

Watched Burlesque.
We were thinking of trying to sneak into Love and other drugs but then decided not to.
It's so weird, when we are 15, we want to sneak into a NC16 movie then when we are 16,17, we want to try to sneak into a M18 movie.
Burlesque should be rated NC16 lor!
There was this part when the guy was getting cookies in the kitchen and then they showed his TOTALLY NAKED BACK. Thankfully not the front, that would be gross.
And then in one of the performances of the main actress, she showed her bare butt and then at the end of the song, she stood in front of this lamp post looking thing that only covered the essentials.
I don't think I would want to watch a M18 or R21 movie because I don't want to see naked people. I'd rather see some cool action movie or hilarious comedy.

After the movie, meiqi stayed at plaza sing for a while the rest of us headed for the mrt.
me and luisa were going to bugis together.
AND THEN THE MOST FREAKING AMAZING THING HAPPENED!!!!!
Well, I won't say what though =X
But one thing for sure, I love Plaza Singapura now hahahahah.
Tried "I <3 Taimei" as recommended by Meiqi.

The milk tea was great, MUCH BETTER than gong cha!
Maybe I should give gong cha another chance some other day, shouldn't just condemn it just because of one unfortunate event.
Then again, if it didn't taste nice that day, i don't think the taste would be any different if i tried it another day.
Koi is next on my "wishlist".
Awesome day :)
end of 20jan.

21jan.
slept until like 3pm then went to work at 5pm.
nothing much today just that my colleagues kept asking me about my braces.
And I couldn't eat all the cakes because they are sweet and I am supposed to eat less sweet stuff.
end of 21jan.

22jan.
Went to Bras Basah with Jane to buy her 参考 books.
I love Bras Basah.
Bought my sec 3 and 4 textbooks there last time and the notes in the book were quite helpful~
Jane bought 1 book,
AND I BOUGHT TWO!
HAHAHAHA.
I was supposed to pei her to buy but end up I bought more.
Okay so while we were queueing up to pay for our books at the cashier, I was discussing with her.
I told her, since it's a 2nd hand shop, let's ask for discount.
The original price of all our books added together is $24 so I told her let's try to ask for $20.
When it was our turn to pay, the man keyed in the prices in the cashier and the prices were immediately typed out on the receipt and i was like crap, like that can't ask for discount already since it's already in "black and white".
But I didn't realise that there was a 20% discount in the whole shop! :O
So after discount, all our books only costed $19.20 in total!
HAHA much better than what I wanted it to be.
Awesome~
I bought two GP reference books (mugger alert!) and purposely chose them to be the ones that have the most notes written in it =X
I managed to find one that's from a scholar and there's like chinese definitions on top of some chim words. xD great chance to learn chinese!
On the contrary, Jane likes her book to be clean and new.

After we bought our books, we went back to Bugis with the intention of playing arcade.
Unfortunately, the arcade at Bugis was filled with so many pros that made us intimidated so we decided to play at Tiong's arcade instead.
Played this 9 button game which we failed in one round because we stupidly thought we were smart enough to pass "expert" mode.
Damn.
Then we played basketball. The basketball machine there is terrible because the ball keeps rebouncing back and flying everywhere.
Had great fun though :D
Went for work after that.

end of 22jan.

23jan.
Woke up at 1pm today and then I started blogging this super long post.
I stopped at 20jan's post and then went out with my mum and grandma to vivo.
Just shopped around but came home emptyhanded as usual.
My shopping trips always fail because I refuse to try on a different style of clothing.
But well sometimes it's not my fault.
With my build, it's hard to look nice in dresses or blouses.
Some dresses are too short, some dresses make me look like i'm an overgrown kid, some dresses make me look muscular and a lot of other problems la. T.T

I am going to know my school posting on 26 jan at 8am.
Actually, I act as if I'm already in ACJC.
One very good example:
When I went out with Jane that day, she was complaining that she was so tired after her first PE lesson and she had muscle aches everywhere.
Then I said "My school has swim PE for 1 term" =X
She was a bit confused by my statement and then I told her it's ACJC that has the swim PE haha.
But this very small part of me is wishing that I might just get into HC by luck, like nobody wants to go HC at all so they have to accept 4 pointers.
It would be a great honour right?
Like when you tell people, "I am from HC", people will think wow you are smart etc etc
Even if you got there through DSA and retained for a year (ahem ahem), nobody bothers to ask so much.
You are from HC and that's all that matters.

Haha I should stop fantasizing of being in HC and start learning ACJC's school song xD
Time to sleep! Bye!

2011-01-23T02:32:00.003+08:00

I have no idea how I should spend my time tomorrow.
I have thought of a few ways:
1. Pack my room (i'm so lazy to move)
2. Go rollerblading at ECP alone (but it's SUNDAY and it probably will rain :O )
3. Read my "Eat Pray Love"
4. Read the dictionary (I tried the other day and I gave up at the third page of "A")
5. Blog properly and detailedly. (waste electricity and i'm lazy)
6. Go shopping at either vivo or orchard.
7. Sleep the whole day.

I will most probably be doing Idea number 7 haha.
Should sleep now byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

2011-01-14T23:23:00.004+08:00

last group photos in school uniform

Went to nanyang jc's openhouse on 11jan.

damn awesome cos got a lot of free stuff.
it's a really nice place and i really might have put nyjc as my first choice if i got like 14 points for o levels

13 January 2011

went to NJC.

Astons @ Cathay

my chargrilled chicken with potato salad and coleslaw

meiqi's chargrilled chicken with onion rings and baked potato

reshma's teriyaki chicken with garden salad and house salad

The Astons at Cathay is sucky, the first time we went, they had no beef or chicken. This time, they have no spaghetti -.-

Right after we finished our meal at Astons, we went to Plaza Sing to eat yogurt.

$8.90 for this. Damn worth it.
Free flow of topping but there's not much space to put the topping..

do you see the two holes in my teeth? :D

14January 2011

i feel damn cheated.
went to school to submit my JAE application before i didnt have a printer at home and i thought i could print at school but turns out I CAN'T PRINT!
WTH.
so i specially wore my school skirt, wore school shoes, tied up my hair, took a bus to school, just to do something that i can do at home -.-
and i was being followed as if i was a criminal.
SERIOUSLY. The GO lady brought me to the computer lab (i'm pretty sure she's new because she didnt know where the right lab was so she brought me to walk around the whole school..)
Then when we reached the right lab, I was almost completing my application then she suddenly appeared again and asked me whether i was done.
So i asked her "are you supposed to escort me out of school?" and she said yes!
And I was thinking what???? why does she need to watch my every movement?
I am an ALUMNI for goodness sake! Does she seriously think I would plant bombs in the school or what?
I couldnt even go around to reminisce the lovely memories I've had in the school or find teachers to say hi and thank them for my good results.
urgh.

to appease my anger, i went on an eating spree.

tau huay from rochor beancurd house

icekimo belgian chocolate ice cream (using the free voucher that i got from NYJC's open house)
i didnt feel that it was very nice, as in the chocolate taste was not very strong.. marble slab's one is nicer =X

i want to eat more food~
hungry~

2011-01-14T16:50:00.002+08:00

Off you go JAE application!
Hope you bring me good news soon! :D

2011-01-11T00:41:00.002+08:00

Hmm I suddenly thought of one more new year resolution: get a better dress sense =X

2011-01-11T00:03:00.002+08:00

Was looking around in forums and realised that 8 points is a really common score.
Do you see how intense the competition is?
8 points is normal.
But on the bright side, the only places I cant go is HC and RJ.
Thinking back, I really dont think I deserve 8 points, considering the amount of hard work I put in for this exam but I was pleasantly surprised by my HCL and Combined Humans even though they were the worst subjects.
Please accept me ACJC, because there's nowhere else I want to go but to you.

2011-01-10T17:55:00.003+08:00

Life is gr8 :)

2011-01-10T00:19:00.003+08:00

Getting back results tomorrow and there's this fear of the unknown in me.
What if things turn out like PSLE? Where I miss one mark and I cant go to where I want to?
(But thinking about it now, I dont regret losing that one mark because it allowed me to come to crescent where i meet awesome friends and had awesome experiences)
I shall just take whatever that comes.
If I score a single digit, AC is definitely my one and only choice no doubt.
However if sadly, a double digit appears, I have no idea what i'm going to do, really.
If I get more than 15 points, I shall quit school and work at four leaves forever hahahahaha.

Work is really awesome as it allowed me to learn so many things such as the relationship required in the different areas.
When a customer orders a cake, you have to fax the order form to the cake department. If the customer wants the cake collected at other outlets, you have to fax to that outlet and then call to ask if they received.
As a supervisor, there's a lot of stuff to do.
You have to order stuff if they run out: plastic bags, knifes, candles, dishwashing liquid, detergent, cakes, bread.
Plus you have to teach newcomers (really hard work if the newcomer is a total noob)

I was considering to be a four leaves manager when i grow up so that i can go around to all the outlets and nag at people and i can carry a GUCCI BAG :O lol.
I went to parkway's fourleaves today and i saw the staff making mistakes tsk
she was wearing gloves and she used the gloved hand to close the bread cover which is actually wrong because your gloves has been used to hold bread thus it is oily and dirty, by using the gloved hand to close the bread cover means you have dirtied the cover and customers will feel the oiliness of the cover and feel grossed out x(

Met with Jane today cos she went to queenstown cc to get her bursary or sth.
smart girl, not like me :(
I think i only got bursary once in my whole life and that was probably when i was p3 or somewhere there.

I think I should give tuition as a part time job next time, can earn like at least $20/hr? but my results suck like hell. x.x
not really anticipating JC life :O
I cant sleep!!!!!!!!!!

i like songs with meaningful lyrics or lyrics that fully express how i feel.
and this is one of them.
my favourite line is "let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday" :)
Be happy everyone!
results in less like 48 hours!

2011-01-08T19:06:00.002+08:00

went to ngee ann poly's open house with meiqi and luisa yesterday

picture of me and luisa at mos burger
went to the bus stop to take either 154 or 184 to NP
saw jinwei and le-yi at the bus stop
there was a shuttle bus that goes to NP but it was too crowded so we didnt take it...
we met jynn chee at NP
NP is a pretty awesome place because they have this OurSpace@72 where you can slack and study and then there's an awesome library where they sell bubble tea and you can drink inside
we went to the convention centre and me, meiqi and le-yi did this NP cheer and got a free shirt!!!
AWESOMENESS!!!
I wasnt really expecting that I would do such a thing in front of the camera and other people! :O
But free shirt! :D

free stuff that we got from ngee ann
i won a Garnier facial foam from this teenage booth
there's some other Acnes free sample in the goodie bag and a teenage magazine, a NP notebook <3, nescafe coffee, 2 mini j.co donuts and got some brochures around
and last but not least, the free Ngee Ann shirt!!!!! :D

we left ngee ann at around 4pm and took bus back to the mrt
went to SP for a while (really just a few minutes) to get their goodie bag and then we left =X

in the SP goodie bag, there's a $5 mini toons voucher, colour pencils set, this small sample of facial foam, nescafe coffee, this fat pen that looks like the one we got for national day at school and this small packet of sticky that has "SP" in it!

after we left SP, me and meiqi went to ion to have a swensen's ice cream and dessert buffet

there's like about 50 flavours of ice cream but i only tried a few because i'm not a person who likes to try new stuff =X
there were cool flavours like sarsi
there's brownies, cookies and cakes too
lots of topping available for the ice cream such as all sorts of breakfast cereal: milo, koko crunch, honey stars and cookie crisp
there's also kit kat, snickers, crunch and some other chocolate bits
not to forget rainbow toppings and chocolate chip and wafer sticks

a photo of me and meiqi when we just went in
notice her shirt

a picture of meiqi halfway through the buffet

she got one big patch of chocolate on her other shirt so she changed into her new ngee ann shirt xD

the buffet costed $22.25 after the 7% GST and 10% service tax but I dont think it's worth it. for me at least because i didnt really eat a lot =X

right now, i'm interested to try out the delifrance breakfast buffet which is only $9.90! (not sure whether gst and service tax is counted alr)

2011-01-07T00:10:00.002+08:00

My internet is so slow :(
None of my youtube videos are working!! x.x

bleh today's a really bad day and i can confidently say it's the worst day of my year so far. (well it's out of 6 days only)
it's my sort-of last day at work and i lost $4 while I was being the cashier :(
But fortunately, I am still considered a new staff so I dont have to fork out the money by myself.
Was supposed to go to the dentist but it closed before i went there..
my grandma and my mum are quarreling now :(
I want WORLD PEACE.
(blocks their voice with music)

After work yesterday, I was taking the escalator to buy green tea opposite and then this old man suddenly stood beside me and said "中国来的啊？" and i was like wth?? i told him no.
then he asked me how old am i and made a guess that i'm 19.
stupidly (i have no idea why i even bothered answering him), i told him i'm 16 and he commented that i was tall for a 16 year old.
following that, he said i have nice hair.
i felt totally creeped out! ji ko peh sia!
i told him i'm rushing for time and i ran off =X
this is the second time in the year that someone thought i was from china.
the first was the new colleague who thought i was from china on the first day of the year!
tsk.

2011-01-02T00:33:00.004+08:00

2010-12-24T00:40:00.005+08:00

Work has been pretty alright although two consecutive days of 11am-10pm shifts is killing my legs and 2 weeks of stuffing bread into my mouth is making me fat like crazy!!!!
It's christmas eve tomorrow!!!!
It will be the busiest day ever since I started work; customers will be queueing up to collect their cakes and some customers will be buying cakes on the spot.
I start work at 9am tomorrow :O
Hope I survive till the christmas party!
Yay! Bye!

2010-12-21T22:41:00.002+08:00

Went to mediacorp with jane on 18th to apply to be new actresses!
KIDDING.
Well we did go to "work".
We met up at 7.45am to head there together with my grandma's friend.
Breakfast was provided and it consisted of fried bee hoon, chicken wing, fried prawn, coffee and tea.
To me, the tea tastes bleaugh but to Jane, it's nice.
However, I love the coffee!
I drank like 3 cups of it. Firstly because it's nice and secondly because I will need it to keep me awake later on.
Lunch was rice (chicken rice?), vege, braised meat, fruits and some other stuff which i cant remember. And not to forget, coffee again! haha

met michelle on 19th at plaza sing to buy christmas hats for the christmas party
was supposed to meet her at 11am but well, being the epitome of laziness, i woke up at 10.45am
Reached plaza sing at 11.45am in the end =X
We went to daiso and bought 9 hats.
Had lunch at Just Acia (again! :D).
I ate what meiqi ate the other day: dory fish with ginger sauce.
The first few bites were nice but after I finish half of it, I got a bit sick of it.

But the best part is still the free flow of ice cream and drinks la.

Played arcade after eating.
I LOST MY Zone-X CARD!!!! T.T

Worked today, morning shift.
During lunch break, i went opposite the plaza to eat and on the way back to my workplace, i saw teen titans!!!!!!!

the cyborg guy was the absolute cutest!
i dont know whether he's supposed to but he was totally off beat from the rest hahaha.

working almost full shift for the next three days so i might be so exhausted that i wont even be using com.
byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

2010-12-17T22:30:00.004+08:00

went out with meiqi and luisa on 13th to go to orchard to see the lights~
nothing much interesting there actually but the part of being with friends just makes me happy :)
We ate dinner at Wisma's Food Republic and it's damn expensive >:(
My yong tau foo was $5.40. The ingredients was $4.20 and my noodle (the 招牌面) alone costs $1.20!
I'm so dumb to choose that sia.
And the lady tried to cheat me of my 10cents by giving me a french coin that resembles a 10-cent coin.
On second thoughts, I think she herself got cheated too since she's quite old and probably doesnt have very good eyesight..

watched "Confessions" with meiqi on the 15th before I went for my night shift.
The show is like.....*speechless*
after the movie, everyone in the cinema just stoned for a while and nobody had any reaction.
I dont really feel anything about the show.
It's NC16 and the movie format is similar to Jodi Picoult's book.
There are like different perspectives of people involved in a story.

Ate at Dhoby Ghaut's JustAcia for lunch.
Free chocolate, free cappuccino, free ice cream and free soft drinks! (Y)
Ate the fried chicken thing again because it's the cheapest haha
The first picture on the left is my first serving of ice cream.
I was totally stuffing the cup, trying my best to make my money worth.
Then, one scoop of strawberry fell into the vanilla tub =X
I didnt finish my second serving because I was totally bloated =/

Back to talking about work.
Work was okay today.
I prefer 9-6pm more than 5-10pm shifts actually because I have fresher bread to eat and more money to earn since I work longer hours.
Plus, time seems to pass faster in the 9-6pm shift!
Like seriously, I reach the shop at 9am and start working: arranging cakes, counting the stocks, unpacking stuff. Then WHAM! It's 12noon.
When you're busy, time really passes faster.
On the contrary, 5-10pm is pretty much boring because there's nothing much to do and thus time moves like a snail.
It's my off day tomorrow and I'm going to earn more money elsewhere hahahahahhaha
My work timings are pretty great because I am free on all the days I require myself to be free.
For example, I asked for the 9-6pm shift on 24th and many thanks to the male baker cum sales man, I got it! So I can go for the christmas party.
In addition, my next off day is 25th of december so I can go for some event with my grandma.
Best of all, my last off day of the year is on 31th! So I can do whatever I want to end the new year!
My next wish is that my shift on 1st January is the 5-10pm one otherwise I will just faint during work xD
I really need to take more initiative at work instead of waiting for instructions and I need to speak up more although I dont know how to address my fellow colleagues. By their names? Or call like Julene-jie/ julene-ge?

The pimple thingy on my chin is slowly shrinking but now there's a new pimple on my right eyebrow!!!! Like WTHHHHHH. zzzz

I should sleep early today so that I wont fall asleep during my "work" tomorrow; It would be good for my pimple outbreak too.
Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

2010-12-16T00:48:00.002+08:00

Work makes me sleepy, makes my legs sore, makes my back ache but I love every minute of it because it gives me something to do to kill time and instead of using com the whole day and wasting electricity (money!), i'm earning money to pay for the electrical bills!
Work was good for today and yesterday because I didnt touch the cashier thus I didnt lose or had extra money in the cashier.
Tomorrow's morning shift and I think I might be touching the cashier so bless me that I dont fumble anywhere!
I love the china male baker!

Dont think anywhere else.
Not in the real heart love kind of love.
It's just that because of him, I can work morning shift of 9-6pm on 24th and thus, I can kinda make it to the christmas party at aunt kelly's house!
Three cheers and three cheers for the baker!

I want to go shopping desperately and buy clothes that make me look more mature instead of looking like a 12 year old kid.
However, everytime I go into shops like F21, Pull and Bear, Fox and Cotton On, I cant find anything to buy :(

It's 1am now and I have morning shift ~~tomorrow~~ later so byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Oh last thing, I have a freaking GIGANTIC pimple/lump/ swollen thingy on my chin and it's horrible :(

Class chalet pictures

meiqi me and andro in the room

me and luisa in the same room same mirror

lunch on the second day, ham carbonara, SHIOK!
it came with potato salad too and just that alone made me so full already
ate this at wheelock place's pasta shop (or sth like that)

me trying to look professional with janice's dslr
turns out i'm holding it wrong, you're supposed to hold the bottom of the lens

me meiqi and reshma (in height order but reshma's not that much taller than meiqi la, i think meiqi bent her knees) holding our singapore zoo wood carve print
meiqi was so excited because of a specific reason *hint hint*

three books i bought at the airport
NO GST! 3 for $10!
But turns out that the books are of terrible quality.
I read a little of "Pride and Prejudice" and "ankle" was spelt wrongly as "ancle"
tsk. stopped reading after that.

Serangoon Nex with Jane, my mum and my grandma

jane and i went there with the purpose of going for our job interview
we had to fill in a job application form
and there was this blank that said:

Colour: ______________________

and we were like wth? so racist question.
then we were discussing to write yellow or what =X
Later on, we realised it was asking for the colour of our IC -.-

photo in the bus on the way back

anderson's icecream
we ordered mint choc, cookies and cream, belgian chocolate, double chocolate, berries forest and some other flavour that i forgot

Orchard with Michelle and Aunt Kelly

As usual, my aunt was late so me and michelle went into sushi tei to eat first
we didnt eat any main course, just took plates after plates from the conveyer belt and we ordered ice cream
I ordered strawberry mille-feuille (however you spell it) and michelle ordered black sesame ice cream
i have no idea why people like black sesame ice cream because i dont like it
to be honest, i dont like a lot of things.

michelle posing with her black sesame ice cream
she abandoned after a few scoops because it really tastes horrible

oh and we were bored waiting for my aunt so we started teasing the new staff there Muahahah
sorry so evil.
we asked them how to pronounce "croquette" and we asked them what is inside my strawberry mille-feuille but they didnt give us a satisfactory answer to both questions
but i cant blame them la.
i cant give a satisfactory answer when someone asks me what is inside the coco exotic cake even though i have been eating it for my birthday for years

Ate Haagen Dazs with my aunt at The Centrepoint
This ice cream is called something paradise one.
It's $18 and there's like mango and strawberry sorbet and other flavours that i cant remember
it's not very nice actually because the waffle and everything else was too sweet and the terrible sorbet was SOOOOOOO SOUR!
The chocolate sauce was also pretty tasteless.
On the contrary, Andersen's one was so thick that one cup of water couldnt wash off the taste in my mouth.

Bought two books with the $20 that my aunt gave me.
Harris was having a 20% sale and the "eat pray love" book was on discount, only $12 so I bought it.
Finished reading "house rules" already and i love it because it's jodi picoult's book and i have always been a fan of her books.
The writing is so elaborate that i could actually feel what the character was feeling and imagine the whole setting.
great read!
I'm just starting on "eat pray love" and I'm enjoying it too.
It's sort of a different genre from "house rules".
I dont think there's murder and mystery in "eat pray love".
It will still be a great book I bet.

Rapunzel with Meiqi before I head for work.
Rapunzel is an awesome movie for a family outing because it's funny and the animation was great too. her hair is cooooooooooooool!

i went to find jane after i finished my 11-8pm shift and i waited for her to finish work.
the pace of teaching at her side is like much slower than mine other than the fact that she learnt how to use the cashier on the first day.

me camwhoring in my working uniform haha

Wow this is a long post, probably cos the pictures are taking up most of the space.
It's 12.30am and I think it's really time to sleep otherwise I might be the one oversleeping and going for work 2 hours late =X
byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

2010-12-12T23:13:00.002+08:00

Work today was really happening! More to the bad side though.
It's my first morning shift, 9-6pm and I was really afraid that I couldnt wake up =X
Set 3 alarms and luckily I did manage to wake up to be on time for work.
On the other hand, my supervisor was late because she overslept :(
Did quite abit of cashiering today and I messed up a little because there were quite a lot of people and I was a little flustered.
Lost $2.90 from the cashier.
Fortunately I'm still counted as a new staff so I didnt have to dig into my own pocket to pay for the money.
SPEAKING OF POCKET!
I got my apron and head scarf today (damn i look like crap in it) and then halfway through work, I was cleaning my hands on my apron-it's a bad habit actually-but that's not the point now. The point is that I felt a lump in my pocket and I found $40!!!!!!
And I was like thinking SHIT, I bet they think I stole it or something.
I have no idea how it got there, it was probably there when I first got the apron.
Gave the money to my supervisor and she was quite shocked about how the money appeared in my apron.
I have lots of problems with money zzzz
I must MUST be more careful when I'm handling money in the future.
My favourite part of my job is selling cakes.
It's such a joy to see people in deep thought on what kind of cake the birthday girl/guy would like and then they will tell me the number of candles.
The oldest I got was 78 years old and it was a young lady (probably in her early twenties) who bought it.
It's sweet to imagine that the whole family of 3/4/5 generations will enjoy the celebration together, eating the cake that I packed for them.
Anyway, I shall stay on track and talk about my eventful day.
Somewhen somehow an old man stole two pieces of bread.
I mean seriously, an old man????
Old mans are supposed to be kind and friendly AND they are not supposed to be running away fast enough such that we cant catch them.
I heard from my colleague that he ran into the men's toilet so she couldnt catch him. However when she asked the male baker to go into the toilet to look for the old man, he was nowhere in sight.
tsk.
Next unfortunate event.
An old lady (probably 50-60 years old) bought some bread and last minute added another item.
My supervisor counted the price for that item but i forgot to put that last-minute item in the bag.
The lady left without realising it.
About 30 minutes later, the old lady stormed back into the shop, fuming and starting scolding and scolding stuff like how can you all do this etc etc.
To appease her and not disrupt the business, my supervisor gave her a free packet of butter roll.
Technically, that's my mistake but I just stood there like a statue and didnt utter a word at all =X
oops.

Next unfortunate event.
Since it was my first day wearing my head scarf, I naturally felt awkward having it on and it kept slipping off.
Thus I had to constantly pull it up.
Then, one of the customers, an old lady (AGAIN! what's the prob with old people today!) "complained" to my colleague that I kept touching my hair and she was scared that my hair would fall into the bread.
Well the purpose of the stupid head scarf is to prevent my hair from falling into the bread actually but apparently it was not working. Actually not that it was not working, my hair didnt fall into her bread but she's just mentioning it just in case la.
So I tried my best not to touch my hair unless necessary, for example the whole head scarf falls out which actually happened once. The whole thing just slid off my head.

There are still a few unfortunate events that happened but I think I dont think I shall blabber on about my work because it's boring.
My next off day is on 18th (awesome!), i actually requested for it since I have stuff to do on that day.
I will ask about 24th at a later date.
Hopefully I can get the 9-6pm shift and then rush to the christmas party but somehow I dont have a good feeling about it.
It's christmas eve after all, there will be a lot of people coming to collect their christmas cakes or to buy last minute christmas cakes so the shop requires people to work.

I shall spam pictures in a new post!
