This week, I have worked and slacked the most. Yea, I know how ironic that sounds. But its rather true. There was the 10 Chinese news paper cuttings and the endless tests to study for (more to come next week). But there were also the times of simply do nothing. Sleep is soo therapeutic these days. I can just zonked off after hitting my soft wonderful bed. And today, I hardly did any work other than read one paragraph of my chem book. I really should do more, theres more tests next week than there were this week.
Well, there was music. Piano was rather much the same, she was the same irritating talk alot woman. I ssoooo miss MM. Theory was more interesting. I'm soo glad we dumped MK, MY is soo much better. M didn't come today, so we talked abit. She likes to gossip, had reels to say about Josephine Koh and the ABRSM syllabus. Well, it was a change.
wish me luck

Sorry to use such a cliche, but Time Flies... January is already drawing to a close. Just one more week, and thats it for January this year. It seems just yesterday, I was talking about the first day of school. So many things has happened: CCA orientation, SYF preparation, tests after tests. But the main thing that has happened in my life is still my fight to keep my subjects. Ask me how its going, I'll tell you I'm appealing and we'll see. Thing is, whether I get to keep them or not makes no difference, cause I'm going to attend all my lessons regardless that everyone thinks I'm wasting my time. I'm not making a statement, although I might as well do that in the process, I'm merely following my heart. Let me drop combine humans, I'll gladly do it, but no, its compulsory, *** do I hate that word.
Wish me luck

First week of school
First day will always be first day; a day for slacking and settling back in. And then the rest of the week of rush on. If I didn't calculate wrongly, we have 4 tests next week...
So let me go study.

Yo People,
I promised a birthday wishlist, so here it is:
1-10) anything u wanna get me
(cause i can't think of anything i want...well...my stereo is kaputt....;)
At last! I've found out how to post pictures. Yipee! I can put my pretty face online now ;) (stop puking)!
Me & Corrinne May!!!
First day of school, much has happened.
1) I no longer have any duties (yeah!)
2) We have rather good teachers
- All the old ones except: English (Khairani)
E Geog. (Ho)
Physics (Cheng)
Well, thats all the changes I think. Have only seen Cheng. Conclusion: Good & nice teacher.
K has chicken pox, so now we have this really silly to the point of being retarted 19 year old ex chungchenger. She can't seem to wipe that silly sickling smile off her face and pleads with the class to cooperate.
As for Ho, I don't like her. The few moments I had to do with her in the past is enough for me to make a conclusion.
3) New time table. Rather cool, long day on Monday, and then 1.10 dismissal for the rest of the week. (except alternate tuesdays 2.10)
4) Last and the not to nice thing, ... I can't keep my 10 subjects...BoooHooooooo!!!!!
And now I don't know what to drop. I want to do medicine, so obviously I can't drop any of my sciences or maths. That leaves me English, Chinese and Humans: all compulsory. And then that leaves me German and Music. I'm really really torn between them. Heres the facts:
German: consistant A1s , 2 afternoons a week + the fact I've been on the immersion programme
Music: About B3, 1 afternoon a week, even if I don't take I'll still have my private lessons
I've been thinking; if I think more along the academic line, I'll drop Music, cause I'm confidant of an A1 in German (think L1R5).
But when I think into the future, like 10 years down, and I dropped Music, I'll definitely regret. If i drop German now, I can always pick it up easily in the future. But if I drop music, I'll never be able to do the stuff we do in music again. Unless I take a music degree or something or if I take A level music. But thats quite quite unlikely. There aren't that many JCs offering music, I wanna go VJC, and its not one of them. So.... WHAT DO I DO!!!!
Heres your homework: Think about it and drop me your opinion.

Wow, I can't believe the last time I've blogged ( i swore i'd never use that word, so i won't)...the last time I've talked to u guys was last year. 365 days have just flew by. So much has happened, they all seem like yesterday.
First and foremost, I'd like to share my thoughts on an incident that I think will still be fresh in all our minds. Christmas weekend, disaster struck; an earthquake erupted, great waves were triggered and they moved @ great speed towards civilisation. They hit land. Tragedy. Lives were lost, hearts were shattered. Its been a week, the recovery has hardly started. Thousands are now looking down from heaven, more are lying in sickbeds awaiting treatmen, others are wading through mud, helplessly searching. Death, mourning, darkness, fretting, screams, tears, helplessness...they are surrounded. And yet, here I am, sitting in the comfort of my home, typing away. I have everything they don't have. What does that make me? I'm a queen living in my luxurious palace.
I can do something, I can give cash, and so can you. Its been heartwarming to see people all over the world and especially Singapore giving so generously. I was shocked when I first saw the amount the government pledged, 2M. That is such a miserable lot. But then, the people are so much better. Hopefully, this won't die down, collections will continue until things are stable. God bless them.
Ok, that business is done. Heres the end of my holidays. I won't bore you with details, suffice to say I had nice bbqs and christmas. Homework was started the day before new year's eve and is still being persued.
New year's countdown was the best. Esplanade, Corrinne May, a minutes silence. And there was rain. Some of you might have thought "how dreary...", but think again. Rain washes away all the unhappiness, all the suffering and mishaps. All washed away. After rain would come a rainbow. Of course, it wa night, so no sun, so rainbow. But anyway, the after rain is HOPE. Hope for the new year, hope for salvation, for peace. Yep.
Next on the list, Corrinne May's performance. Her first set was cancelled because of the rain. Instead, she did her soundcheck then, even that was so good it garnered applause. The shows were delayed 3 hours. But I guess its just as well, the rain helped in the toning down in view of recent events. I got her autograph and a photo with her during the delay. Talk about blessings in disguise! Anyway, she simply GREAT! Her live performance definitely beats her CD. Talk about soul, she simply sings emotion; you'll laugh, smile and cry with her. A company would make big bucks if one signs her, and I'll be one of those who'll be able to say, "I loved her when no one knew her."
All the best to all for 2005
you know you love me
