[yunita] well, you can make it a point to experience such a morning in your holidays then. though you'll probably never wake up to an empty house...you can try to imagine it as empty as possible! :D
[ceci] of course i'm talking about you. who else would be such a dd!
[deb] well, its over now. jia you for the others!!! :D
[tttw] excuse me! you are mad and illogical. my veins has nothing to do with anything :p you'd better make sure yours are unclogged.
[st] thanks! but I want the moon too!
[yanting] thank you! ;D you do well for yours too!
Ha! The week is almost over.
Its the wee hours of Friday morning now.
4 days have flown past. The German prelims is really a time gobbler.
What could I have done with those 4 days? What could I have finished?
But hey, guess what? Those 4 days are gone!
So Ms Chong, you shall psycho yourself that those 4 days were well spent revising for German and that from now on you will focus on your other 3 subjects will other people have to study for 4.
NLP?
nah, forget it.
Self-dicipline shall do the trick!
BOOK! watch out! here i come!!!
Its teachers day this Saturday. Which means celebrations in school will be on Friday.
Almost everyone I know won't be going to school tomorrow.
Why are JC teachers so sad? Or is it just because we're really too preoccupied with our prelims?
Since a number of people will be going back to their secondary schools, I think its the former.
The JC system just doesn't let the teacher-student relationship to develop as much as in secondary schools. A good part of it is also because JC teachers don't really make the effort to get to know their students. I know for a fact that it can be done, because there are some teachers that are close to some students and their classes. But many teachers just treat their job as a purely academic thing and the interaction is secondary to them.
(i actually tried writing an analysis for this, but loads of crap came out instead. i shall attribute my unproductiveness to the hour)
Prelims!
아자 아자!!!
you know you love me
Ahh!
this is bad!
I'm full of adrenaline now.
Only God knows why.
Hmm, maybe to some extent I do.
I drank coffee in the morning, had an exciting time changing topics for essay, went to the toilet, saw someone rolling on the ground, ran to get help, ran back to class for paper 2, and had another roller coaster ride through the compre!
Gosh!
and now I have to run down to my noodles!
This has to stop! I need insulin to kick in!
Or else I'm gonna die of heart attack or fall asleep during my oral!
talking about oral....grr!
i really must be getting to my noodles now
you know you love me
Just like cancer, intolerance is accumulative too!
Ich habe schon genug von euch! Fast neunzehn Jahren! Ich bin kein Kind mehr. Ihr konnt nicht so mir handeln. Ich aegere mich sehr! Naechtes mal...werde ich explodieren. Genug ist genug. Wirklich! Das kann nicht sein. Ich gehoert zu mir selbts und nur mir! ihr...ihr...dummen Schweinen! Ich haette wirklich genug. Mir ist egal was ihr alle sagt. Was ihr denkt und sagt wird gleich bedeutungslos fuer mich sein. Ich sage noch mal. Ich bin kein Kind und werde nie mehr dieses schaffen! Ich will nichts mehr davon!!! Auf wieder NIE sehen!
I lurve Thursdays!
The most wonderful day of the week.
In this self-declared day off,
you get to sleep in.
At about 9am, you wake up to an empty house, the birds chirping outside your window.
You throw off the duvets, stretch out to reach the sky, take a couple of steps over to the window and feel the slight breeze blowing in your face.
The usually noisy neighbourhood has this odd tranquility about it and you stay there for a few moments, the warm rays of the sun kissing your face lightly.
You skip down the stairs, put a little something that you call breakfast together and sink into the sofa to eat.
When you're feeling quite satiated and ready to start work, you take your things out and get down to it.
When as and when you feel hungry, you get up to have a bite. And when you feel quite accomplished, you pack your things and head to the beach for a run.
With your endorphine levels soaring, you stand facing the sea, smelling the salty air and listening to the waves talking to each other.
After all that, you get in touch with the world a little by telling the world about your wonderful day on your beautiful blog.
Unfortunately, this will be the last of such Thursdays.
Prelims start next week.
you know you love me
ps: such days shouldn't be interrupted by people sending certain msgs and then not giving an update for 3 hours :p
I am mad.
PW is a thing of long long ago. But yet, everything I think of that fugly C...it just feels so undeserved...
How on earth am I supposed to explain the fugliness of it all away?
I can't exactly say that I got flustered during my OP because the examiner gave me a hard time for not bringing my entry proof!
damn. thats months ago!
gah
fugly!
you know you love me
At last!
The ease of studying that has evaded me for more than one and a half years is finally coming back to me, albeit gradually.
I think it started last Sunday, when I was studying for a Bio test, and was confirmed this Thursday. Thursday, my self-declared day-off-school day, when I successfully breezed through 5 chapters of maths! Quite an incredible feat ;)
I don't know what to attribute this to. Is it the looming A levels stimulating my brain cells? Or have I just snapped back to real work in my quest to become the mugging queen? ;)
Oh well, one shall not question the cause and shall happily accept the given circumstances.
Hmmm, renewed mugging efforts might work for my science subjects...but what of GP?! How on earth am I supposed to get my A or even B for GP when my essay marks refuse to go above the 30 mark and when my compre marks are constantly fluctuating?!
This is bad...this is really bad...
I won't quit. I'll continue to strive for my As. But in order to do that, I must know how!!!
you know you love me
for what i've been doing the past few days, go check out my 'cute ppl' link :D
PRELIMS!!!
STUDY!!!
you know you love me
Conversations these past few days have got my thinking about 'best friends'.
We had thing conversation about friends in general at the hut last year. I don't think I'll go into that right now. (if anyone wants me to you can let me know :p) I shall just talk about best friends.
Many people wonder "What is a best friend?", "Do I have a best friend?", "Am I my 'best friend's" best friend?" etc. etc.
Countless answers to the definition of a 'best friend' have been given.
They range from one liners like,
"A best friend is one who is able to see through your smiles." to long rambling descriptions like "A friend is someone who is loyal, someone you can trust and rely on. Someone who can make you laugh and comfort u when u mourn. Someone who will not suddenly grudge or envy you if you should suddenly become rich and famous. Someone who accepts and appreciates you for who you are. Someone who would never deceive you. Someone who if offered a huge sum of money do away with you or stop associating with you would bluntly refuse because they value your friendship. Someone who if they know you are poor wouldn't care but would do everything in their power to help you."
from kartik:
a best friend is someone who can tell you're being an absolute ass and not sound like one when he/she tells you so that you know that they are really being honest and caring when they tell you about it
I guess best friends are just all that and more and you'll know it when you see it. And you can't really define what a 'best friend' is or how you should treat a 'best friend' because its unique to each person.
[grr i wanted to write along intellectual post about this, but my brain ain't working now! :p so better luck next time! lol.]
Excerpt from Corrinne May's
"Everyone needs a friend to hold
when it's cold outside
and there's no place to go
Everyone needs a friend to hold."
you know you love me!
Corrinne May concert:
-fantastic!
-"Everything in it's Time" especially good.
-new songs all beautiful.
-Corrinne really sweet. Spent alot of time with us, very sincere.
and now I shall let the pics speak for themselves
http://refugeesg.wordpress.com/
Go to that website and read about the atrocities that is happening to people in this planet.
You'll know what to do.
you know you love me
love the world too
[debbie] yea, i'm fantastic, thank you very much :D (one of the dictionary's definitions, haha) oh well...we'll see what happens in dec...i bet you still can't skate backwards, lol.
I realised I haven't spoken about College day yet!
Anyway, college day was on Saturday. I thought it'd be interesting to see what a college day with mr chan at the helm would be like, so I went to the PT to grab a seat.
well well well, school report. our dear little (ok, maybe not so little) rolly polly decided to speak in this deep artificial tone when he was quoting someone. My goodness! What was he thinking?!??! I hope he somehow managed to hear himself and die of embarressment or something!
Met up with Sean afterwards and we were having a nice discussion about this new 'thing' thats heading the school. We agreed that Mrs Lee was an effective tigress, Mrs Chan was very likable and achieved alot of things [as can be seen (or rather heard) from the applause that resounded when he mentioned them], and this new thing is just totally inadequate to fill in those large boots left behind by those two women.
Speaking of Mrs Chan, sighz, how does that woman do it?! She looked 10 years younger than her age! grr! And we were wondering who gives her her hair tips! Looking at pictures in cosiety, she came back twice in 2 weeks and both times she had different hairstyles...
Anyway, back to our discussion of tweedle. That dope had to announce to everybody that he was using Mrs Chan's speech template...(no wonder I found the structure kind of familiar...) like Helloooo...you mean you can't come up with your own?!
All in all, he was quite an embarressment and provided everyone quite a laugh!
Trust me, you wouldn't want a principal like that...(to give him some credit he has improved since the beginning of the year)
August. Time of the year when a J2 has to research her future options. What scholarships are available? What kind of a career do I want? Which universities should I apply to? What are the chances of my getting in? And to top off all that, the prelims are just 4 weeks away!
Whee! Fun!
I need my 4 As if I even want a Cambridge interview!
JIA YOU!!!!!!!
you know you love me
[deb] how i wish! I need to finish my blardy courseworks so that I can start mugging properly! AHH! haha
[debbie] ah spankew spankew :D well, its always useful to make oneself sound sophisticated (even when you're rattling about daily life :p) hmm, I realise I've yet to go out with you or anything...
Ah, how cute, both my tag replies are to 'deb's.
What can I say?
Coursework! My life these couple of days has been all about coursework!
Its an interesting and useful assignment. It lets you write about what you want and gives you sufficient time to do it. But it certainly ain't no fun when you'ves tonnes of other stuff to do at the same time!
Well, at least some consolations are Corrinne May concert this Friday and and...well...and...
I'll find out ...
you know you love me
