umm..new blog? here

2006-06-05T22:19:00.000+08:00

ookay it's been ages since I blogged. eep the expresso entry is still here! that was months ago...right?

well anyway it's the holidays now. still have school. mrs tee gave some 'talk' this morning how we have to rest a few days then continue working cuz prelims are like 2-3 months away which isn't very long more.

relative velocity is horrible! I mean..we already know that when we're on the bus, the trees aren't moving it's actually us, so why must we learn to calculate? and besides we're not actually going to calculate if we're going to collide anyway unless umm its required in our future professions which I highly doubt it will matter to me next time..

physics lessons. we have them every day. had practical also. screwed up graphs! started early but ended same time as scheduled so no time for lunch! had to take away macs and eat at tuition. tuition was eeky..3.30-6.30 of staring into space, skimming through oral notes and listening to the teacher ramble on.

this is a very complainey post you realise? but no ones gna read it. =P

lots to look forward to [I hope]
class partyyy
church camp

what else? oh yea.

CARS!!

2006-04-15T21:32:00.000+08:00

think I'm gna stop blogging.

2006-04-03T20:44:00.000+08:00

seems like ages since I came online and even longer that I blogged. but it's only been 4 days without the computer. it's been fun though :)

expresso is over. cheezels roller coasters, twisties, hello pandas and chupa chups.

there was an evil cheezels stealer! some guy tried to take twice. first one packet then the whole basket.

some other person bought 4 packets of hello panda and ate it standing next to our table.

this grp of people wearing black shirts and jeans looked at their reflections in the handbells noticeboard glass panel and mussing their hair.

mrs goh and mrs ang trying to sell the drinks, 'buy 6 and you get a free agar agar!' and 'get half a dozen! it's cheaper than petrol kiosks!'

back to school. had free yoghurt. yum. but ours were kind of warm. physics test. hope it isn't too screwed. didnt really have time to study! :(

2006-03-26T22:27:00.000+08:00

well..the asian games for PE are over. woke up several hours earlier than usual for a saturday, trudged to school at 7.30 to watch people walk across the sports complex with their flags and the lighting of the candle torch was like UHH?

We didn't have our star/most enthusiastic player to play for us. so sad! haha she was practically what was holdig our floorball team together. playing wasn't bad actually..considering we hardly practised. what really sucks is when another class openly hates your class for beating them. that is just so..retarded. I can't find another word to describe it, but it's stupid. it's not as if we cheated or anything.

went for 6-8 amath tuition. revision on functions. but we didn't do the domain/range thing which I still don't get. oh well. no hw :)

Church today. reviewed memory verses and then had a quiz on Acts 1-20. it was open book and the forfeit was drinking water. at least it wasn't sarsi. and yay we're gna watch ice age 2 together. took ages to do the silly amath ws so I didn't do any other hw. darn..pe tmr again. legs acheee.

boohoo. I'm a slowpoke.

2006-03-22T22:16:00.000+08:00

Will SOMEBODY please buy EXPRESSO tickets from me?
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE???

31st March/1st April
7.30 pm
$10 tickets!

ey! buy ley! pleaseeeeeee?

2006-03-21T22:38:00.000+08:00

sorry. was meaning to blog but nothing much to blog about. silly midyears are coming. and haven't really done anything about it. okay have done nothing about it.

hateeeee drawing the geometrical transformation graphs!! gahh it took me so long to do part 1 of the hw and I was supp to use that extra 1 hr to do amath and vectors. had to redraw a few times cuz I didnt have enough space. esp the last question that silly 1cm.

ooh yay this year we dont have to go for cross country. but we're having the bio paper on that day. sigh. which is equally bad or worse! :(

2006-03-10T21:03:00.000+08:00

congrats A4! :) haha turns out we're not too shabby..1st for rap and 2nd for jingle. okay so maybe those recess practices in the mep room [sacrificing eating an extra packet of potato sticks] were worth it. I guess it's good to know that we didn't practise in vain, and even though we complained a lot about the actions [see in the end we didn't do the window wiping!] I'm really glad it paid off eventually.

well today was the last day of school term 1. hard to believe that there's no waking up early and no tests to study for. but then it's exams we're studying for. or at least that's what I plan to do. no time left! glad for the break but wish it were longer.

watched pirates of the carribean for english. had to stop at the climax cuz it was time for bio. wasn't looking forward to the stuff after recess. chinese compo followed by chem lab and finally the jingle. didnt get to eat our next week's supply of potato sticks to make up for the hols. haha.

2006-03-05T20:54:00.000+08:00

bowling today!!

I wasn't as bad as some people thought I'd be okay! Hmmf. what 'pay money to clean gutters'. My score was more than 0 okay! =) haha. really fun! I got a few spares and one [extremely rare] strike. got a lot of gutter balls though. haha. and we ate alot. lollipops, green pea snacks, chicken snacks, some veggie crackers. eat and eat and eat! all the calories burnt by bowling all added back. Jeanette and I kept saying 'after this piece no more eating' but then two seconds later we'd pop another cracker into our mouth before realising what we did. haha.

sooo sleepy now. not really sure of what homework is due and what I've done. but weekends are for resting! so must be well-rested by tomorrow morning. haha. I cant believe it's like week 10 already! didnt school just start?

2006-03-04T22:02:00.000+08:00

really really glad that this week is over. done with the 3 science tests. done with the horrible cause and effect essay. next week, it's a new week..gna try to start afresh in terms of revision and well, stuff.

fridays are officially the worst days of the week. I used to like fridays because it meant that the weekend is near and it's time to relax and recharge before it's off to another busy week. and how you can go home after school and crash onto the bed. now fridays are just plain yucky. especially yesterday. double eng, bio recess sometimes double chinese and chem lab [which i can never do properly!]. and then there's still cca. but cca isn't bad. really. it's a lot better than the last 3 years of cca and so far it's been like only a few sessions.

like how yesterday we got to play around in the mac lab. it's like really cool. the mac monitor has a built in cpu and the disc slot is at the side. no sec1s so our grp had only christine and me. we were trying to learn the shortcuts for like create new folder which was up+apple+n or something like that but we had no idea where the up was and had a lot of error sounds.

the pictures we took were quite bad too..we tried to stitch them together but then it was really screwed. so gotta retake I suppose.

weekend's half gone!! :(

2006-02-28T22:04:00.000+08:00

haha okay alyssa I'll blog about feb ending. TODAY'S 28FEB. tmr's march. TWO MONTHS OF SCHOOL. where did it go?

this week so far has been bad. HORRIBLE physics and bio tests. TRAUMATIC I tell you. when you start the paper full of hope and flip through and deflate. haha. Actually I figured I didnt study THOROUGHLY. I think I'm quite lazy ley like I study halfway and I think I studied alot already and kind of like stop. and end up not studying.

today's chinese lesson was fun. haha. laoshi was high. the chapter was about make up and about how if you want to look pretty outside you have to work from your inside and drink a lot of water and eat healthily then they were all like orhh laoshi you cannot eat potato chips anymore. and at the end of the lesson she said 'jin tian hua wen ke shang de hen kai xin! [today's chi lesson was very fun]..everybody, give yourself a slap.' dots!

our class had bugs today! there was a beetle and then a cricket during lit which mrs leong caught with michelle's test tube box. haha. scary but funny.

2006-02-24T21:45:00.000+08:00

I hate today. today was a sucky day. had to do this freaking hard to read compre [no offence to the people who set it cuz I know they put in effort, hard work and stuff] which I really REALLY didn't want to do and it's COUNTED for the CA in term 2 or whatever which I still think is extremely unfair but not like I can do anything about it. I mean come on I'm already at like the BOTTOM, counting this confirm gna do badly compre [I can't do the vocab. it's either blank or stupid guesses] is just going to bring it down wayyyyy lower.

I should stop wallowing in self pity. but it really does affect me. a lot. I mean what I got was like average? but if you look at the class marksheet???? I should stop comparing cuz I already know that no matter what, I'll never be good enough. even if I'm good, everyone else is better.

chem prac was a failure. I couldn't even do like question 1 of qa properly. cca was fun though. was split into groups of 4 then we had one more person. was taking shots for the virtual tour of the school. our grp had no tripod so I had to be the tripod. the canteen one was worse than the outside the mep room one cuz the canteen had people [obviously] and there was some guy who SAW we were taking photos and he posed. like ew!

sigh. weekends seem not enough. two days break off the vicious cycle and then it's back to the same old routine.

2006-02-21T21:05:00.000+08:00

where are you chem notes? why can't I find you?

week 8. today I was semi inspired to work harder. I can't really remember why. I think it wore off already. Hmm. Started the day off with CHEM. the electrolysis nightmare. got back our assignments. a big thank you to Tammy for explaining. she explained the gist of the chapter to me in like two minutes. the bit about selective...what's that..oh DISCHARGE. What kept coming to my mind was reabsorption cuz of bio excretion. heh. I'm still pretty confused after doing the TYS cuz I got like a lot wrong but I feel like I understand at least a little bit of the chapter after her explanation. repeat after me: cathode is for cations, anode is for anions. I mean it's so DUH right looking at the names but then SILLY me managed to remember them SWOPPED about and thus adding to the confusion. so I was uhh inspired to do the TYS properly and ask about the questions that I dunno. Have I done that? not really.

got back emath test. disappointment better be a test NOW and not LATER. I'm still moaning over that wrongly simplified fraction. Next time I won't blanco I'll cancel so I can see my SILLY MISTAKE before time's up. chinese wasn't much better. only one thing positive out of the test: I passed. watched act 1 scene 1 and parts of scene 1 of enemy of the people during lit. got back lit test too which I totally forgot about. wasn't good. boo. stayed back for chinese remedial thing or whatever it's called..the one-to-one point out your mistakes session. I can't really remember what she said though =X something about watching chinese news. perhaps sacrificing 45 min of sleep from now would be worth it for later. hopefully.

some people are really mean. I mean we know you don't like us, but showing your disgust especially when you're not directly involved is just being plain mean. look at it this way, it's not like it's fun for us to be under those circumstances especially since it's along with you. at least we don't openly declare our irritated feelings right to your face or within earshot. but whatever, because having people like in the world just help us to deal with stuff like that and become better people. that's for us lah. not you.

2006-02-16T21:21:00.000+08:00

one week ago I was sick. sorry that was a random thought about how one week ago I was sitting here typing out an entry on why I was happy that I got an MC missing all those double periods. well, thank God I recovered/am recovering.

expected to start the day off with emath test but mrs tee said don't swop the periods like she usually does so we had amath instead which wasn't exactly productive. mrs tee got carried away after proving that d/dx (sec θ) = sinθ / cos² θ and continued simplifiying until tanθ secθ. haha. so the 2nd part working was slightly different. didn't realise you could get so excited about math that you keep simplifying until you forget about the question. such enthusiasm!

bio. failed the drawing! haha I got 0. not surprised actually considering I drew mine in less than a minute and was wondering why everyone was still sketching away and he gave extra time. the question said to examine closely the structure and I was all WHAT STRUCTURE? how was I to know that those things had LEAVES? I thought it was like part of the mud or something not meant to be there. oops! silly me.

emath test. I'm careless I'm careless I'm careless!! I found that out the second I handed in the paper. the first page, the FIRST QUESTION. I shaded. and erased the wrong part! =( gahh. I should stop being so careless. like chem. sobs. those four marks COULD HAVE BECOME MY A1 OKAY!!

I think I've stopped um..working hard? I dunno I just don't feel like I do much these days. actually that's cuz I really don't. I mean there were attempts at the very beginning of the year but lately I haven't been working at it. Like revising and stuff. I think I'm two chapters behind in bio. the last time I read it was hormones. we've done the eye and the nervous system and I dunno the details. oh no =( ditto physics.

rasputin is scary. run and hidee!

2006-02-15T21:56:00.000+08:00

total defence day..

missed emath period. was swopped w amath later cuz some people wanted to do revision. didn't bring emath tys so we just WATCHED people do. haha. mrs tee was bored! she thought the period was over and tried to leave 15 minutes earlier. haha. uhh today was pretty boring except for The Jelly Hurling Incident.

had to stay back to do the chinese test. waitd in the concourse which was full of primary kids waiting for their parents to pick them up after their various ccas [ballet and swimming were the main ones]. there was this group of 4 little girls who were playing some CHOPE game. they were shouting 1..2..3..CHOPE and then pointing at the person who said it the last. I can't imagine ever being like that but I know there was a time we all were, so primary school friends if I ever annoyed the crap out of you when I was like that, I offer sincere apologies. haha.

emath test tmr! =X

2006-02-13T20:45:00.000+08:00

so much for a productive afternoon. went to school. guess I wasn't well rested from the weekend since was out whole of saturday and yesterday.

started off with some bio drawing test of a water chestnut which is upon 3. apparently 3 is excellent 2 is merit 1 is pass and 0 is fail. I bet I get 0 cuz mine was like 3 lines. the fans weren't on and I was perspiring real badly and coughing.

managed to survive school today..tingxie, 45 min of eng textbook reading, differentiation of logs, cool high tech physics circuit thingys [no more red and black crocodile clips?].

came home, planned to try to complete EVERYTHING this afternoon. eng compre, zuowen, jian bao, chinese compre, ss essays, amath hw, chem ws. too ambitious I guess cuz I developed a fever after just english compre. sigh.

missing last valentines day in school! no sweets no chocolates no notes. just me, flu medicine and sitting position sleep. please remember me when you're enjoying yourself!!

2006-02-09T21:28:00.000+08:00

oh boo I'm sick. had headache from this morning but no fever [trusty sars thermometer] so went to school anyway since there was chem and history tests. sigh.

screwed up chem!! silly aluminium and chloride ions thing which I anyhow did that's -2. then woozy vision made me read the graph or diagram or whatever wrongly so instead of 8 i wrote 7. that's -1. then there was calculation after that which used the value so it's -3. SOBS. that's -6 so far. and if I get anything wrong I won't get A1. yes it's a big deal since most of my class gets A1 for chem. oh well =(

managed to get through the rest of the day..then had history test which was quite terrible. I couldn't really think properly so what I wrote was really OFF. I remember writing stuff like 'absolutely dreadful'. hopefully it makes sense. and um the teacher wrote the times on the board to cancel to like tell us how much time we had left. then she cancelled the 1.45 a few minutes BEFORE the bell rang. so when I looked up I thought it was 2 o'clock already and that I only had 10 minutes left to do the last question. so I panicked and was scribbling furiously in practically illegible handwriting then I finished and found out that...I had a lot of time left. argh. so I was reading and rereading my nonsense filled answers.

got an mc for tomorrow when I went to see the doctor. missed most of american idol =( but um yay cuz tmr is friday which means I miss double eng double chi and chem lab! okay it's not exciting missing lessons. haha.

whee.

2006-02-08T22:01:00.000+08:00

I went to sleep early last night, at 10! yay.

today was well, pretty normal I suppose. amath was especially funny cuz andita was complaining abt someone to mrs tee and she was drinking water at the same time so she sprayed mrs tee with water. everyone was laughing for quite a while then mrs tee said she's remember it for the rest of her life and when she sees andita drinking water she'll move away. and the dog andita brought was on mrs tee's handbag. ahaha.

was highly traumatised on the way home. the window of the car next to us was rolled down. the driver's hand crept out from the space and promptly dropped his/her boogers onto the road. like ew!! thank God we were slightly behind. can you imagine having snot on your car? it's just as bad as those people who spit. I mean won't you feel disgusted if you're walking along some corridor and your foot slides over something slimy-gloopy green phlegm? yuck.

chem and hist tests tmr. read over and over and over again. how come it feels like I didn't study??

2006-02-07T20:24:00.000+08:00

okay almost a week has past since I last blogged.

well.. not much has happened I guess. screwy amath, bio and lit tests. progress report is not going to be pretty! homework is piling up, more and more tests to study for. where is my sense of urgency? =(

went to watch i not stupid too w the school in lido. it was quite funny but some bits were so sad.

okay must go do the history worksheet. I need to get a hist file there are too many to keep inside the plastic sleeve.

2006-02-01T22:22:00.000+08:00

Look at the date. It's 1st February 2006. And umm..where did January go? Yes this is gonna be another sappy paragraph on how time passes so fast that we don't even realise it. I mean come on. I still feel like school just started but hey it's like week5 already and we have tests and all. before you know it it's midyears chi 'o's prelims and o levels.

well I was planning to say that since I don't feel that I have worked hard enough in January I shall start the month of February afresh by..working harder? but guess what. Bio and Amath tests are on tomorrow, one after another and I'm still here at 10pm blogging and not revising. Considering the two tests tomorrow will have heavy weightage for the [totally inaccurate gauge of progress] progress report. Like how the Chem graded assignment [mighty hard] is like 20% of the total and the other 80% is actually..the test itself. AND I still haven't gotten down to relearning titration since my first attempt last year when it was being taught in class obviously failed since I umm well failed the "quiz". badly. Oops. Long sentences in this post.

Well..got back the Palmyra compre today and it was umm quite terrible. it was hardd!! had to go ask for 2 marks cuz for some reason I got 2 out of the 3 points but the last one was wrong so the teacher thought the whole thing was wrong and gave 0. but even those two marks weren't enough to save me. it was quite terrible having the 'yay I got 2 more marks' and then having her flip to the front, adding the two marks and realising that I still fail that section. that was followed by flipping through my horrible answers and commenting that it was partly because of the vocab which I got all five incorrect. thank God for the [although not that well done] summary which allowed me to pass. yay!

Okay I was just randomly playing with the colours. my blog is skinless plus it's black and white. so I shall attempt to add more colour to it. okay time to go. bye :)

2006-01-29T21:36:00.000+08:00

hello! happy chinese new year. it's been pretty boring.

have been quite amused these days. mrs leong telling us she plays runescape. laoshi telling us abt her in the supermarket using credit card to pay cuz the cashier judged her by her t shirt and shorts and told her that the cheaper fruit was the other side.

2006-01-26T17:11:00.000+08:00

I feel bloggy-ish. Whatever that means. That's why I'm here. good old blog *pat*. I feel so free but actually we DO have homework, all the lovely 'angpaos' for us from our teachers. chinese new year holiday homework is horrible. I mean most of us go visiting so it's not like we have oodles of time to laze around and do homework right. oh well I shall attempt to do stuff later. not that it'll work but no harm trying.

apparently I sound very hardworking on my blog. it's mostly all talk and no action.

today. had emath test first period. I think I read the graph wrongly. oops! didn't go that badly after all. was kind of worried cuz didn't really prepare for it or do TYS questions. but it was okay. I hope!

got back physics test. hrmm it was okay I guess. but it's only the first test. the others probably wont be as easy. screwed up the ray diagram as usual. I had no idea what I was drawing anyway. and the whole particle moving thing was wrong.

had to write the history essays. we dont' really have much info/understanding on the whole thing so it was kind of hard to write. must go find more transitional words to use though. used however, on the other hand, firstly, also..etc a billion times already.

off to do heymath!

2006-01-24T20:32:00.003+08:00

being told that you're hateful the first thing in the morning isn't exactly a pleasant feeling. our class was like barely awake. and um now we can't ussucks. okay.

the day was pretty boring. 2 periods of lit is killer. could barely keep awake during the first period and we were like oh no not another 45 min. I mean it's hard to get into the whole scene thing suddenly after a week's break and then you're thrown all these questions when you don't really have time to get 'into' the book yet and by the time you do [i never do] it's over.

what else d
ou do [i never do] it's over.

what else d

helloo.

weekend passed by real quick. don't feel well rested at all. haha. probably cuz I fell asleep in the afternoon yesterday and couldn't sleep last night. it's a cycle. today I was tired so I fell asleep in the afternoon. guess what tonight is gna be like.

last night found out that physics test included lenses. silly me thought it was 13 AND 16.1 not 13 TO 16.1. yea so had a semi heart attack when I found out last night but really thankful that I found out LAST NIGHT not this morning so at least I could cram for a while before I went to bed. it wasn't that bad after all but I mean you never know so I'm hoping for the best. tingxie also. quite okay :) but brought the WRONG BOOK. gah.

I'm reverting to my old lazy self! oh no! I shall go off to be productive. (yea right)

2006-01-20T22:02:00.000+08:00

HERITAGE TOUR!

Fridays are the worst days of the week! but today wasn't so bad cuz it's odd wk so there's math not 2 period chinese.

started off with English. our class was pretty dead as usual. haha. I suppose maybe it's also due to it being a banded class like Chinese and they're both pretty alike in that way. had to write some dramatic entrance thing which we had umm 10 min to do and at the end of 10 min we had only established the topic but nothing else on the paper.

the cow or moo icecream thing they sell in the canteen is NICEE. chocolate and vanilla. yum. it's deeelicious. had icecream eating contest after school. red bowl noodles ate the primary school portion. haha. it was gone in 3 bites.

heritage tour. walk, take notes, take photos, eat sweets, take silly pics. that's pretty much what we did.

2006-01-19T21:34:00.000+08:00

what a horrible day today was. especially the SS TEST. not saying anything cuz some people havne't taken but I'm gna fail!! I forgot like HOW to write an answer and what on earth you're supposed to write. I think I just paraphrased a lot. I just want umm 14! yes I'll be happy.

good thing about today: 2 free periods cuz we didn't have history. took the opportunity to do amath hw. the b4 people were playing marco polo and we were there doing work? what a contrast.

Janice, the two sec2s and I sat in the LT and watched auditions. no la we were videoing it for them. quite interesting actually to watch. all the o holy night-s and somewhere over the rainbow-s. cabbed home cuz I missed stupid 970.

heritage tour tmr!

2006-01-17T21:00:00.000+08:00

I'm attempting to finish this quick blog entry in about 2 minutes so I can watch the 9 o'clock show. 9 o'clock shows are bad cuz they're addictive and you have to watch them every day. okay it has already started and I can't remember what I wanted to blog about.

tomorrow's probably gonna be a horrible day. Serene and I were examining tomorrow's timetable during SS. first it's the teacher student conference thing or as the paper calls it, chit-chat. I have no idea why but we signed up for tomorrow's since there were two spots. eee. it's still scary just thinking TALKING when half the time I have nothing to say.

well these two days didn't really have homework cuz for amaths surprisingly we did the same worksheet 2 days in a row and still haven't completed it. haha. but it's quite long I suppose that's why. can't figure out how to do the assignment cuz it's applications and I can't be bothered to really figure out how to apply it.

during chem mrs low was like why are you all so sleepy? then she asked rachel wang 'why are you so sleepy? last night watch project run-away ah?'

aha we're still being mistaken for primary school kids which is quite amusing since we're umm let's see sec4? like how we were in the general office and the security guard was trying to help this p4 girl find the science labs. he asked the office people and they said they didn't know then he asked us and we said we only know the secondary labs and he's like 'you all never go science lab ah' then emma told him that we were sec4 but I think he didn't hear. oh well. we highly suspect that it was the PE attire plus lunch box thing. haha.

oookay it's been umm like fifteen minutes and I'm still here so I should really get off now. bye!

2006-01-15T21:23:00.000+08:00

church today. youth service, bible study, rotting in MPHall 2. played guillotine then just slacked and flipped through the stnick's year book. their yearbook is so nice. it's all coloured and you can choose who to take photo with from your class. if we had that I can imagine in our class who'd be taking with who already.

went to toa payoh for lunch then dropped by the library. saw Janice Lie and Deborah doing CIP. shop n save then came home. was planning to study for a bit but didn't. sigh. vicious cycle of school resumes tomorrow.

2006-01-14T21:53:00.000+08:00

I feel accomplished! Today isn't as wasted as I thought it would be cuz the morning was a slow start.

Woke up at about 9. Had breakfast then went back to sleep until about 11. Left for tuition. I never knew the bus ride took only 8 minutes. Waiting time is SO much longer than that! Did applications of differentiation kinematics kinda thing. So glad we finished that emath topic. Oh yea shall heed Mrs Tee's advice and do TYS questions after she finishes each chapter. So far..I haven't started.

quick purchase of correction tape refil then came home. studied bio from cells to middle of nutrition. gonna do the tys soon too. better revise the heart, breathing, and excretion chapters too since they're the most unfamiliar.

suddenly had the urge to file things. got out a few stacks of worksheets from last year and separated them into subjects. filed emath, amath, english and chinese. oh yea for amath and emath right do we still use the same files? I don't think there'll be enough space!

okay this entry makes me sound like a nerd. I AM NOT A NERD! school doesn't excite me! umm what else. my hobby is not doing homework! okay are you convinced now? guess not.

2006-01-13T22:01:00.000+08:00

yay I can use the format thing to make colours.

computer is back! changed the hard disk. the fan spoilt too or something. but YAY. a real keyboard again. a real mouse. still adjusting back to the windows controls. mac is like alt whatever and here it's ctrl. and um. okay I forgot what I was going to say.

2nd week of school..over! that was fast. really fast.

don't you have this sixth sense that tells you when a teacher is gna call on you? usually when you don't want to be called. hrmm. chinese. got called to read the last two paragraphs. we made it through almost all the paragraphs and I was gonna breathe a sigh of relief and then..gahh.
diane was funny though she gave a biiiiig sigh of relief after she read. then laoshi was like you better not do that during oral.

cca registration. ava's merged with computer and we're called um what's it again? oh yes infocomm club. and it's on friday. I almost forgot that we had cca today. sigh. get to skip next wk cuz of heritage tour. hope it isn't too boring! still remember last year's when I couldn't hear a thing they were saying.

weekend! pretty much did the homework already, just gotta revise and stuff. oh yeah there's the ss test soon.

2006-01-11T20:43:00.000+08:00

it's saddening how we're reduced to mere acquaintances. thank you, I have been unknowingly superseded by someone else.

Jesus You are my best friend, You will always be, and nothing will ever change that.

back to school today. changed seats randomly. she called us by reg number. in second row at the extreme left. somehow I always end up on the left. sec one, last year 2nd sem, now. sitting next to tammy. we confused ourselves doing the quotient rule worksheet.

Happy Birthday Jeanette!

2006-01-10T22:19:00.000+08:00

I was just reading something that made me sad. I mean it was written two years ago and things have really changed. between us. but I have to move on. cuz evidently that person already has.

stop dwelling in the past shermaine!

studying tomorrow's timetable. at least we finish early.

2006-01-08T21:00:00.000+08:00

"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men." -Colossians 3:23

That's my motivational verse of the year. Along with my new year resolutions which consist of
1) studying
2) taking pride in my work [yes in other words improving handwriting/doing homework properly even if I'm feeling lazy]
3) no snacking
4) becoming a better person [the qualities I wish to possess are endless so no point listing]
5) talk more

I'm serious! I don't get how the rest of the world can talk so much [everyone else but me] and most of the time I really have NOTHING to say. Not that I don't want to talk okay.

A week into 2006. It's hard to believe that we're no longer 3A4. It seems like yesterday we were in that airy primary school classroom on the 3rd floor 2nd from the left. It's difficult to accept the fact that it's our last year in MG. It's frightening not knowing where I'll be a year from now.

On a lighter note, I filed my SS and history!! I searched through all the piles of worksheets from last year [they're all crammed into the 2 maths files] and found quite a lot. Not really sure how much I'm missing but hopefully I'm not missing that much. I even did the content page! haha I feel so accomplished but then I still have to read the 7eleven book by tmr cuz it's the chinese test.

A whole week of school ahead. Tuesday's a holidayyy yay.

2006-01-04T20:41:00.000+08:00

okay from now on I shall spend umm 1/2 an hour max online.

2nd day of school. actually it wasn't any better than yesterday. hmm found out that we gotta get our history file and ss in order. oh gosh where are those worksheets hiding? bleah. I was comparing odd and even week time table. it's exactly the same except on fridays odd wk is emath and even wk it's an extra period of chinese which means two double periods of chinese that week. scary.

umm nothing much interesting today I suppose except that we finished early cuz it's wednesday. lunch is horribly late now! ravenous by the time I get home which is about 3.

2006-01-03T21:14:00.000+08:00

first day of school! last first day of school in mg. saw all the primary ones and their parents. reminds me of primary one nine years ago. that's awfully long. I still rmbr ms lee was like saying how our name tags were the only ones written in green ink then she was comparing us with mrs koh's class and saying that mrs koh won with the smallest student.

changes! there are many. the school is grey. a4 is on 2nd floor [old science lab] our lovely view is blocked by the pe dept walkway. our windows have grills. 45 minute periods, which makes double periods killer. recess is longer..probably the only plus point. the sec 1s 2s and 3s dont have midyears. primary school is back. bookshop is popular or smth and they dont sell pens?

mrs low made our class practise lining up. oh gosh. we even practised the wet weather position!! I can't rmbr how to do titration ws and she wants it. oops. I shall revise later.

only 362 days till 2006 ends. I can't wait.

2006-01-01T23:06:00.000+08:00

Happy New Year!!

Anyway so I'm back from Hong Kong. Quite fun la the shopping and Disneyland! went to ocean park too which was really crowded so didn't get to do much there. miss the cool weather though. it wasn't really really cold or anything it was like aircon temperature mostly.

School is starting! Not really prepared. I want to watch the family stone but dunno if it's nice or not. hmm.

church today! had service and lunch. jo wore her heels and nicer clothes than usual. took photos but haven't uploaded yet. wrappped school books.

sorry NOTHING TO BLOG ABOUT.

2005-12-25T21:43:00.000+08:00

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

(would do that colourful/make the letters bigger thing but this internet browser doesn't have the functions and can't be bothered to fiddle around with html codes)

today! woke up early cuz mum had to go to church earlier than usual. had macdonalds breakfast! yum. church, had christmas service! gave out notes, got some cards. had christmas lunch then Samantha, Annabelle, MK, Belicia, Vivien and I decided to go to j8 to watch Narnia! it was like almost sold out kinda thing so we got front row seats. Samantha's treat..so nice =) the show was ok la but then sometimes I had no idea what was happening cuz I didn't read the book or umm anything about it.

christmas dinner at grandmother's house! ate quite a bit too.

off to Hong Kong! 26th-31st December.

Seeya next year.

2005-12-24T14:50:00.000+08:00

hello! =)

have been busy the last few days. well not really. maybe occupied would be a better way of putting it. went cycling on tuesday. good exercise after all that eating.

wednesday went to fetch sister from the airport in the afternoon. her flight was delayed by an hour so my mum and I had nothing to do but to sit at BK and eat. ate a mushroom swiss double meal plus onion rings. the horror! all the stuff burned off from cycling was put back on by the OIL. =( so ate 4 full meals.

thursday. watched the first few episodes of the O.C. and this movie called sleepover. ate and ate and ate again! pizza, chicken wings, garlic bread, kitkat, seaweed, more kitkat.

friday. went out with cowie for last minute christmas shopping. she wanted to eat crystal jade la mian xiao long bao so we went to eat, spending as little as possible. not bad la we only overshot our budget $2. we ordered one pork rib la mian and one plain la mian then we split the pork ribs between us. and we only drank water. yay. orchard was super crowded! gosh. didn't really buy much, bought more things for myself than for presents!

rushed home to change and dump stuff then went to meet belicia. we were early! by a bit. met vivien and jeanette then lyn and we went shopping for THE heels. =) yay. really glad jo liked them [sort of cuz they made her taller] and she was a good sport cuz she wore them around and posed for us, and put them on voluntarily afterwards.

camp echo! had dinner first then back to the mphall for games and seeing camp photos and sharing. they played chubby bunny and some brushing teeth game. they re-enacted the amazing pelican race too.

MERRY CHRISTMAS! [still 24th but might not blog tmr yea?]

2005-12-19T19:47:00.000+08:00

sorry keep wanting to blog but then I forget until after I shut down the computer. oops! =)

cant believe it's been one week since camp ended. have been eating a lot. and uhh a total of four people tell me I'm gna be fat next time. thanks a lot. and 3 were in the same day ok!

quite tired now. yesterday had board games after youth service. played art gallery and 2/3 of guillotine. james kept singing that numa numa song and doing the dance. jo kept singing noel cuz of the 2 lame jokes she told us. you know that christmas alphabet and the 3 wisemen in the desert.

and I didn't know that the real christmas isn't on 25 dec, it's just that it's celebrated on 25 dec. any how, it doesnt matter that much cuz it's more of the meaning of christmas right? =)

2005-12-16T22:07:00.000+08:00

heyy.

watching survivor reunion now. the last few days have been absolutely unproductive. I can summarise what I did in a few words. EAT SLEEP TV INTERNET READ WRITE LETTERS.

I DON'T LIKE WUCHUCAIHONG ENDING. it's so sad. haha. for once I wanted it to be cliche okay!! I wanted yoyo to be with jianyi happily ever after, after they win the Ockoto thing but NO. darn. =(

okay I don't care I am going to do at least two chapters of TYS tomorrow don't care what subject. usually I wake up eat breakfast read and fall back asleep. TOMORROW CANNOT!! have been eating a looooot as well and no exercise. today finally went out of the house to go to the library. didn't find much either.

you are annoying. but whatever I don't give a shit. goodbye.

2005-12-14T23:39:00.000+08:00

I'd rather have Jesus than silver or gold
I'd rather be His than have riches untold
I'd rather have Jesus than houses or land
I'd rather be led by his nail pierced hands

Than to be the king of a vast domain
Or be held in sin's dread sway
Oh I'd rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today

I'd rather have Jesus than vain applause
I'd rather be faithful to His dear cause
I'd rather have Jesus than worldwide fame
I'd rather be true to His holy name

2005-12-12T21:03:00.000+08:00

back from youth camp. haven't blogged for quite a while. dunno exactly how long.

camp was fun!

thursday had pre-camp. got briefed, swept and mopped classrooms, had dinner, decorated angel mortal boxes [everyone was like drawing and dno what while our grp-asics one was all cut and paste] turned out that we couldn't sleep in the classrooms cuz the teachers wanted to paint or do dno what so we slept in the multipurpose room with AIRCON! yay. showering was nice cuz it's the only time we didn't have to fight for cubicles, it had enough for all six of us to bathe at once. had supper and prata!

friday day one. woke up early, had breakfast, washed cups, got briefed, waited for campers to come. our grp members came quite early but then they all disappeared to dno where!! had briefing, brought bags up to bunk then had ice breakers. the first few in the hall were the usual kind then had literal ice breaking. our grp had the most ice inside the cup when we handed it in. haha. grp time, lunch then more team games. like picking marbles in gunky water, standing on a few chairs and moving them, transporting water through 2 straws [v-shaped] and then this candle game which was very disastrous. played this game where you had to do jumping jacks then go around the floorball stick, walk in a straight line, bite this apple hanging under the table and then find and eat m&ms in flour. cough. showered, had dinner, worship, workshop [writing stuff about people on their backs]. had debrief then went to sleep.

saturday day two. woke up to write a letter to my mortal. grp devotions then breakfast. had pelican race! we were last. haha. took a scenic tour of botanic gardens. haha. so funny we were supposed to go to the visitors centre and we walked the opposite direction from the arrow. and happily walked AWAY from it. ended up at dno what bridge and had dinner at funan centre then went back.

sunday day three. woke up later than planned cuz my friend's alarm didn't ring and my phone was charging. devotions, breakfast then had normal youth service. some investment money earning game. ended up staying at the station copying out newspaper articles. I copied out the ringtone then got chinese words la. it was good cuz the message was very clear, that earthly treasures dont last [they happily tore the 'money' in front of us along with the papers writing jaguar and condos]. lunch, workshop about friends then shower and kopitiam night. so weird we ate western food for dinner and wore kopitiamish clothes. item wasn't tooooo screwed..was it?

todayy did cleaning. our grp cleaned the female toilet and shower. eek. the floor was so black.

had lunch, unpacked, showered then fell asleep until dinner. still sleepy but got proj runway.

2005-12-05T23:08:00.000+08:00

was gna blog yesterday but then the silly computer hung and had no idea how to do the ctrl alt dlt the mac way so ended up taking out the battery. haha. yes i'm lousy i know that already.

SEA games ended! was watching half of the closing ceremony then I got bored and watched spongebob instead. last episode of tongxinyuan also. does that mean daqiu died? he plop into the water then what happened? yay dadi and ruan mian mian =)

this morning went to school. told my mum to wake me up at 9 so I could get to school at 10 then dunno how she calculated and woke me up at 7.45 instead. I vaguely remember getting out of bed and lying down somewhere else with a clock so I could check the time. burned the video into the vcds. oh gosh we discovered a FLOORBALL CLIP at the back of the video la. no wonder it was 12 min plus.

went to nyghbs to pass the vcd to dno who then we left. ate lunch really slowly at macs and it was so cold that my fries turned HARD. met gin then we walked to btp for her to buy her sushi. looked at uhh plates and cups and kitchen stuff for fun. then walked around and went for tuition.

was early! was already there when jamie msged gin saying she just left the house. haha. did more worksheets. didn't seem like a lot today though. one worksheet for homework. there was this horrible question that was so long!! couldn't be bothered to simplify la.

myscene.com has fun makeover games. haha. I was REALLY bored so I played the nail painting and dno what game. go play go play!

2005-11-30T22:08:00.000+08:00

today was fun =)

woke up at 9 to have breakfast then waited for the amazing race to start. though I don't like the weavers, I must say that the Linzs are really MEAN to them. sure they're not exactly very nice but still, they're VERY mean not just mean.

took bus to jurong west..old neighbourhood! was looking out for the kopitiam aunties and the drinks woman fit the exact description! oh gosh. polo tee, 3/4 pants, money waist pouch..the whole ensemble.

walked around. bought like A LOT OF CLOTHES today. and they were nice! looove the old navy skirt, shorts, top..etc

tmr better do work!! do matrices, dig out graph paper to do graph chapters, figure out the rest of tuition worksheets and find the chinese homework paper!! sigh.

2005-11-29T22:18:00.000+08:00

sunday was kinda late for youth service. saw the banner!

taken by jeanette's phone

could see all the black marker parts when we went up close. board games then lunch at macdonalds. jeanette and I ate chicken mcnuggets and had almost all the sauces. yum. barbeque curry sweet and sour mayo ketchup. had to listen to gross stories joanne kept telling us and her future inventions like uh a beef bowl drink and who knows what else. had youth camp briefing. quite excited about it, like something to look forward to for a change. it's like uhh next week. plus we're supposed to be super enthu about it.

monday shorts hunting. not very successful. ended up getting fbts from ntuc. swedish meatballs, poached salmon and chicken wings for lunch! went to citylink for gin to see her dear charles and keith then mrted to newton and took bus to btp.

turns out that we're going to hongkong instead. disneyland! I still remember the time when we went to the tokyo one and we couldn't understand anything. shopping. though it's only for a few days, still quite looking forward to it too.

was watching the SEA games live coverage. Mark Richmond is a bit.. hmm. haha. like there was about 10 seconds of silence and he SIGHED like before announcing one of the men's swimming events. and they didn't show the gymnasts doing anything except taking photo after they won and the weird interview during the today at the games thing.

I'm sleepy.

2005-11-26T21:09:00.000+08:00

let's see..

tues did amath, watched vcds
weds did amath, wached vcds
thurs studied chem and amath, borrowed library books, saw cross stitch brand called SEW EXCITING.
fri editing, prata lunch [cheese mushroom!!], 3 hr tuition [felt like eternity]
today banner painting, yoshinoya lunch, more painting, tuition, horfun/GU LAO ROU =D dinner

it's nearing the end of november and I really wonder what i have been doing this past month. was supposed to revise whatever learnt this year and neaten my notes but so far- none. what I have done: watched tv/vcds, went online, slept A LOT, emath/amath stuff, read, spent money.

I need to make better use of my time.

2005-11-21T20:32:00.000+08:00

sorry I keep forgetting to blog but not like anyone reads right.

thursday- went to visit my grandmother. my cousin was there. played whatever games he had. a gazillion rounds of uno, uno stacko, 3-D snakes and ladders, ludo and as a last resort, some weird little fighter game which I didn't know how to run. haha.

saturday- prata and tuition. yum. oh gosh the emath people have to go for uhh six hours of tuition on fri. too bad jialin's not going la!

sunday- church. sister had meeting so my mother and I went to chinatown to walk. at first we just went to eat at Han's then had time to kill so we were like oh lets see the sook ching centre thing so we walked and walked and walked and ended up who knows where.

was in some shop with tourists buying singapore souvenirs and I overheard this couple speaking in mandarin. the man was asking the lady who the person on the dollar notes were and she was like Lee Kuan Yew? =X

today- finally got the chance to catch Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. the quidditch was really disappointing!! it was like building up the whole thing and THEY DIDN'T EVEN SHOW THEM PLAY. and hermione's dress wasn't blue. and no dobby [even though he's quite ugly] and cho chang wasn't even that pretty. I think the way hermione speaks is kinda dramatic. I mean seriously, do people talk like that every day?

2005-11-16T17:40:00.000+08:00

hey. tag my board! boo gin has been wanting to buy shorts for a real long time. haha.

yesterday helped jialin with her ltc VERY amazing race station. gosh it was real funny la. we walked down the hill then she realised that she had forgotten to bring the most important thing for that station-the saga seeds! then she started freaking out and we bought a lot of m&ms from mobil. then she was so worried that we won't make it to newton on time so we cabbed there. tried to find saga seeds there but all she got were red berries which she mistook for saga seeds. waited sooo long like five 171s passed before the first grp came. was afraid some psycho would come and happily pick our seeds.

the love symbols..crosses, peace signs [one with cupid's arrow or something], lips, stickboy and girl, and err this stick figure of SFs hugging and SF written at the top.

I think one grp was really funny they took a looooooong time to come and they ended up across the road. then we're like how come they took so long. they told us happily 'oh we only took bus twice and walked' and we're like didn't everyone else take MRT??

I'm almost done with the third summer of the sisterhood. shall go to the library again. I'm almost done with emath too! just have to dig out graph paper to do the graphs.

I wanna watch HARRY POTTER AND THE GOBLET OF FIRE =( =( =(

2005-11-12T22:47:00.000+08:00

this evening was wayy funny.

went to tuition late! was in the lift then this guy with a dustbin said that he took the wrong lift cuz he wanted to go from b1 to b2 and ended up at the 11th floor with us.

she started without us so we had to knock. natalie loh joined our tuition so we filled up the whole of the last row. more differentiation. ate cheezels! bought the sweet one though. I like the original one better! ms chew was in an unusually good mood. she asked, 'which questions you don't know?' then we pointed and she replied excitedlyl 'OKAY!!' I almost expected her to skip out of the room.

jia lin autographed our worksheets! haha better frame up in case next time she becomes famous then I can dig out my old amaths differentiation workskheet and sell it on ebay. we were talking about homework and ms chew thought I was asking her for homework! crazy!!

went across the road to eat dinner. was almost knocked down by a motorcyclist who was trying to park. he turned TOWARDS us while we were trying to move to the side. scary! went to five star chicken rice. we were standing there waiting for people to invite us in. haha no actually we were waiting for them to help us find a seat cuz it was quite crowded. we ended up at some PUNY table at the corner of the entrance. we ordered and the waitress was like 'oh two people eat so half a chicken?' then cowie was like 'oh don't want bones' cuz last time her dunno who ordered then so many bones. then the waitress heard wrongly and said 'a plate of bones?' and we couldn't stop laughing. I mean WHO EATS a plate of bones? she also rattled off the list of beverages they sold.

everyone called us xiaomei except the guy who served our drinks and he gave mine to cowie and vice versa. haha. kept seeing the waitress who took our order of the BONES =D so couldn't stop laughing. the table behind us was a large round table and it also had two people who came after us sitting at it. NOT FAIR!!

I want to dig a hole in the ground and hide.

bye bye fred =(

2005-11-12T16:17:00.000+08:00

it's saturday again!

friday went to Jurong Regional Library to study with Samantha Ting! =) choped a table. the raised floor was made of cement and looked like some carpark floors/trolley bays with circly holes. did 3 chapters of physics. ate four packets of cheezels, one packet of oreos, two cans of soy bean milk.

was looking through my stuff and found sec one and two exam papers. the sec one papers are funny, especially chinese compo. mine was really terrible! the topic was uhh ' The bell rang. I went into the classroom and saw...' and I wrote something like I saw that I had to go see the principal or some important person and I was very scared then it turned out I won some competition. LAME I know but hey she wrote YOU HAVE IMPROVED with a smiley face. I shudder to think of what my other compos were like before I "improved" and I got 33 ok. haha.

I think I liked Home Econs exams cuz they're pretty easy. The paper is, cuz you can just memorise the textbook and practically regurgitate. I hate folios though along with the horrible Recipe and Diet Analyser. Like what is that!! What if the day before you did it was the day you gorged on food and that only happens once in a while? then won't it be totally inaccurate? hmm.

I realise that most people's handwriting get nicer and nicer over time. Mine gets worse and worse. I'm amazed at my sec one and two handwriting for exams. my writing this year was uhh..barely legible. especially CHINESE. oh gosh the sec one chinese paper I could read every word I wrote without difficulty. This year's compre I was like thinking good luck to the person marking. I'm already surprised they could read enough to give me marks. haha.

okay better stop now gotta leave for tuition. 173 is slow =(

2005-11-10T22:02:00.000+08:00

yesterday spent the whole day in school editing. was early and janice was like 20 min late so I was standing in the concourse alone and the pri sch kids were yelling from the 4th floor 'look up! look up!' I went to hide.

today I forgot that Chinese was at 10! I went to school at NINE and thought I was late. luckily sam was there so we went to the canteen. no diet coke so we went to kap. ate a sausage mcmuffin and the macdonalds person was trying to say something but I didn't understand. went to cold storage. was trying to persuade sam to buy the six pack coke light but she found the bottle. darn! walked back to school and met jialin.

had to present the weird movie ending. watched the rest of the movie. read the passage. got semi scolded. went home. NO SINGING!!! :(

went out with cowie and gin. went to cine for lunch then walked around. went to fos again. bought a niceee hoodie! :)

studying tmr.

2005-11-10T22:01:00.000+08:00

2005-11-08T20:35:00.000+08:00

is it better to be optimistic and disappointed, or pessimistic and relieved?

2005-11-08T20:21:00.000+08:00

yesterday!

chinese remedial again. got there on time. first they made a few pairs go up and do the xiang sheng. they asked who went home to seriously prepare and no one raised hand so we had this talk about how the teachers took time and effort to prepare the materials and so on.

watched a movie! well half of it anyway and we're supposed to go home and figure out the second half. did some listening compre which was actually a textbook chapter in the old textbook so the recording was actually done by the teacher. she kept walking around us and it made us laugh even more. and we had to learn another song. it was quite catchy actually. the red dragonfly.

note to CAOOO YUU: DON'T BE SO GUUUU NIAAAAAANGGGGG LA!

2005-11-06T21:36:00.000+08:00

2005-11-05T20:59:00.000+08:00

gosh it's saturday already. where did wednesday and thursday go?

friday went to westmall. was supposed to meet serene but she got lost so walked around shop and save till she came. the library wasn't open yet but it was 10.50 and we could see people queueing up outside. gosh it was like as if there was some promotion then they're queueing up. we could imagine when it turns 11, them rushing in. walked around then decided to go in. found emma, rachel and janice in the children's section!
chose books and sat down to read, waiting for them to finish. oh and you can borrow 8 books instead of 4 from now till jan! coool right? we heard the announcement. lunched at macs then bought cups and serviettes

DID YOU KNOW the nofrills serviettes were more expensive and smaller than the scotts ones

class party! was there super early then shiyou told us to entertain ourselves. ate jialin's mum's prawn fritters. THEY ARE NICE. she kept scolding me for eating so many then later she was like EAT SOMEMORE. hmmf. had lots of fun!! :):):) watergames rocked. haha. only like six of us playing la but still fun.

TUITION today. fun fun. learnt differentiation and she's like cao yu helped you but actually it was squirrel! :)

2005-11-01T21:54:00.000+08:00

Rules of the game: Post 5 Weird and Random facts about yourself, then at the end list the names of 5 people who are next in line to do this. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "You are tagged" in their blog and tell them to read yours."

1. I have three pairs of specs, all of which I'm expected to use regularly [one full framed, one half framed, one frameless] (this came about when I broke my specs)

2. I have this tendency to bang into things even when there's a wide enough space for me to walk past. I better drink more milk now in case I get osteoporosis and if this tendency doesn't go away.

3. I am incredibly predictable. I doubt anyone notices anyway since it has to do with what I do at home. dinner, tv, shower, msn, tv, sleep

4. I love my stuffed toys and I even wrote an expository essay about them for english, which I expected to fail but surprisingly didn't.

5. sometimes when I can't sleep, I think about movies that I've watched over and over again, and go through scene by scene and whatever lines I remember them saying until I fall asleep

tag: jamie, cao yu, meijin (who has been tagged before but hasn't done it), aiya I don't know alr la!!

okay okay I'm updating! didn't realise it's been five days already! brief updates now I suppose.

friday got back exam papers. formed human chain to transport furniture to the secondary side. our class was at the receiving end of level 3 so we had to stack and count the tables. westcoast postexam activity. our grp sucked, period. I mean we ADMIT we are lousy enough on our own and you put us with a2 and b2 sports people. honestly, what do you expect the outcome to be?

saturday sick. tuition which was really a waste of time and money (this lesson only I hope) cuz we did like one question. copying was funny though. and I STILL FEEL BAD FOR LAUGHING at the poor guy with the ugly graph. it was funny ok! when ms chew said 'aiyo why your graph so ugly' guess my laugh-suppressing skills are gone.

sunday still sick. didn't go to church.

monday still sick. went to school for chinese remedial which was really terrible. first they made us listen to some higherchinese textbook chapter and fill in the blanks. in addition, they said 'go home and practise, we will call a few pairs out to do this passage' next they made us move to lt 2 where we were forced to watch some ancient (I think from p6 cuz they were showing like Fantasy 4ever ads which is the really old F4 2nd album) tv show then asked questions. the 10 people from aband were one grp and we couldn't be bothered to answer questions. that's not all! they made us listen to some su you peng song and then SING ALONG after filling in the blanks. thankfully serene and I had sore throats.

watched dvds -the wedding date, batman begins.

today semi-recovered. watched spiderman 2, and two discs of different taiwanese dramas.

can't wait for friday! 2h class party! I don't think I ever had that feeling with a4 that I had with 2h the whole of last yr! exciting exciting! I remember the last two seemed boring while we were at it but I guess the part about just being there as a class was enough, not what we did.

2005-10-27T18:08:00.000+08:00

sore throat! :(

had the etiquette course thing yesterday. the food wasn't that good. it was quite awkward at our table. the bread was nice! I think it's the nicest thing we ate!

today: report book day. comments. the comment mrs low gave is seriously weird. It says something like "shermaine is pleasant but hardworking" which makes it sound as if being hardworking is unpleasant! haha. and the comments by all the teachers thing which I highly suspect the math and amath comments were chosen from a list. mine are exactly the same, word for word for both maths.

mission fruits! helped carry watermelons to the basketball court and we formed a human chain. helped put cones and give out garbage bags. oh gosh the eating was really gross cuz the watermelons were relatively soft already and they smashed them real hard on the ground so a lot of the watermelons broke into many pieces. this is why I was REALLY glad to help and not to eat :) the place looked really gross with watermelon bits all over. poor dc girls who had to clean up.

helped throw rubbish from the juice drinking in the canteen. heard that the juice was really terrible. could smell it from far away! later went to nyghbs to film scenes for our sva entry.

really tired. I wna sleep! left my ltc shirt in class, hope it doesn't get lost!!

oh if you're free tmr or saturday afternoon, go to lido macs (the inside one) to eat rice burger and fill in survey forms.

2005-10-25T22:25:00.000+08:00

Christmas Service! :) Two months in advance: merry christmas!

While half the level went to their dining experience, we had some lifeskills talk about learning styles and we received our DISC profiles (with long lists of possible jobs). I think the best part was the game thing that we had to find items (like scavenger hunt?). the ants were funny! it was the first time we were actually excited to see ants and we found two cuz we needed one dead, one alive. so we poked them to make them less active and brought them carefully to the AVA room. The instructors insisted that they were both alive so we squashed one with our class photos to accomplish our mission! haha. gosh sounds so cruel.

had to collect 3 teacher signatures so we went to the canteen to find and had to go through the whole 'good afternoon teachers may we please have your signatures *smile*' thing. we bought a piece of A4 paper cuz we needed one (five whole cents) and asked for a 1cent coin (we even asked 'free or must pay?' for the coin) so it was 4cents. haha.

our lovely score sheet was confiscated!! :(

2005-10-22T21:47:00.000+08:00

Woke up early today cuz had a meeting at KAP. what a day to have a meeting, when they were celebrating their newly renovated place. It was really noisy and they were giving away prizes like CARS and ONE YEAR FREE SUPPLY OF McDONALDS. It was really crazy and it's scary to see these adults circling the centre, counting the number of balloons that were put up around the spiral. Well the answer was like 189 or something like that.

Met cowie and gin at the bus stop then we went to ikea again to buy gin's stuff and restring cowie's racket. the Poh Kim at anchorpoint was showing wangzibianqingwa and we stood there outside for really long to watch before heading to queensway. walked and walked and walked because we were waiting for the hour that the guy was taking to restring the racket to end. we went back half an hour later and he had just finished taking out the strings and put like ONE string in.

Oh yea we went to haagen daz again and we shared the 3 scoops cuz the person said it was more worth it. we almost left without paying cuz we almost forgot. at least we had enough integrity to call for the bill and wait really long for it to come. I bet if we walked off without paying, they wouldn't even notice. but of course we didn't.

had tuition, new place. well the interior is nicer than the old one and it's much more spacious but it's in quite a scary place..well not really but like the kopitiam downstairs was closed at like dinner time? had to tell her our marks and she didn't look happy. I mean, B3 isn't that bad right considering I failed midyears? and she kept talking about photocopying our report books and some reward for improvement but only for a1 and a2, implying that WE ARE LOUSY. whatever la okay? not like as if we didn't try.

ate stingray and rice for dinner. the lime juice was really sour. suan si ren le! on our way there these two women were trying to make us go into their restaurant then they were like 'xiao jie blahblahblah' dno what. then we walked away and they're like 'jiao xiao mei bu shi xiao jie' hello?? you say so loud we also can hear pls.

2005-10-20T18:21:00.000+08:00

okay yesterday was just a really crappy day. today seemed considerably better. :) I'm actually happy now and I don't even know why.

Went through lit and ss in the hall. We were kind of wondering whether we'd have a separate go-through like midyears but we didn't, which is good and bad. Good that in case there are comments on our paper and we read them out to our friends, Mrs Leong wouldn't come and tell us what she meant. Haha it happened during midyears. And it's also why the pronunciation of asterisk is firmly rooted in my head. so anyway was stoning as soon as I sat down and thus didn't hear that we were supposed to move and so was terribly confused when dee emma and serene stood up and walked away. ended up sitting at the extreme left with only 2 of us in the row.

checked through the rest of the scripts. what a relief! didn't fail anything. English I was really surprised that I passed compre (though by a mere 1 mark) cuz usually I'm the one who fails compre and is saved slightly by summary. My summary was quite terrible and I am supposed to leave more space between my words. Oh-k-ay.

but what really made my day was that I passed combined humans. After the ss paper I was sure I'd fail SS, and for the Lit elective paper I wasn't sure if my essay answered the question. I hadn't understood the poem thoroughly, alternating between part i and part ii. signed CA2 comb humans marksheet so the grade'll probably go back to C5. oh well at least I tried!

it was quite funny between getting back comb humans and chinese. Laoshi changed mode from english to chinese so it was really weird cuz she spoke english for like more than half an hour and suddenly switched. Everyone was like 'she changed mode!' Mrs Low did too, she told us to return to our seats in Mandarin and her reason was because she feels we don't listen to her when she speaks english so must change to catch our attention. HMM.

okay dinner time. spaghetti and meatballs!!

2005-10-19T18:40:00.000+08:00

computer always seems to die when I'm blogging so the past few entries haven't been posted.

well the past few days we have been getting back and going thru papers. can't say I'm totally satisfied with my marks but to a certain extent (oops can't use some or certain) content. or does that statement contradict itself with not satisfied and content?

monday got back bio and chem. tuesday got back emath physics history. today got back amath. sheer disappointment. for instance, I got FIVES AND SIXES and no ONES and no hope of getting any anyway.

it's depressing as well when they go 'you're a band you're supposed to do better' like yea sure there are the brilliant ones but there are also the not-very-brilliant ones (namely me) so the basis of comparison is completely unfair. I mean so freaking what if I take an extra science? It doesn't mean I'm any better than you are. In fact, I'm probably worse.

a good post exam activity for me-cross stitch projects. so far I've finished two and started another one today. it's quite addictive and calming. takes my mind off everything else.

thinking of things to look forward to. none.

2005-10-15T18:47:00.000+08:00

cowie was hinting that I didn't blog and she's off to some dinner. what's there to blog about?

thursday went to renew passport and make new specs, but came home with a whole load of other things. went to the new national library and ate han's for lunch.

yesterday went to eat carl's jr with cowie. candy empire rocks. cowie got addicted to some spray thing but she forgot about it soon after when she threw the empty spray tube away. bought a lot of crap like this childsafe scissors (it had cute pink stars on the blades!) the weird uniball correction pen which I haven't used, a bag of star burst sweets, some chewy blackcurrant thing, a new water bottle to replace the leaking one. went to holland v for cowie to buy her slippers and we left FOS without the slippers but with a really nice a&f moose shirt which was too big for me but cowie liked it so she bought it.

we somehow have weird encounters when eating icecream. first at haagen daz now at ben and jerry's at suntec where we got freaked out by the people there. I mean sure they were friendly and everything just slightly scary. oh we found nice stuff at the weird sale and we dug for books!

no more zhen qing :( how sad.

2005-10-12T18:08:00.000+08:00

sigh my view's slightly obstructed by the scotchtape currently holding my specs together. I can still watch tv ok! I'm sad!

woke up at 9 exactly and watched the amazing race! yea. it's not as fun as the usual one but I like the gaghan family cuz the kids are so cute and the parents are nice not like the paolo people where the mother treats her sons like little kids.

spent the day sleeping and watching tv. what's new? :) IF I WENT OUT TODAY I'D STILL HAVE SPECS. tmr gna renew passport.

2005-10-11T21:09:00.000+08:00

exams are officially over!

had chinese paper 2 and we had to explain 'laotu' and the compre was this passage we read/heard many times before, even in english- the father digging to get his son out from some earthquake or something similar. I think my answers were really incoherent and I wrote a lot of commas. chinese listening! was sitting next to the door. It was so boring and I got restless. we started quite late cuz dawn from a3 had disappeared then they went to find her and eventually she came back.

went with cowie and gin to ikea. had swedish meatballs then walked around the store and they bought the frog toys, some obsession with wangzibianqingwa. gin was carrying two then they looked like they were gonna hop out any second! cowie complains that the person packing shoved the frogs in without care.

walked over to anchor point and walked around before eating dessert-haagen daz!I ate chocolate chocolate chip, gin ate cookies and cream and cowie ate her dear RASPberry. gin saw this campbell tomato soup bag and it reminds me of art last year where we had to colour those with different effects. went to holland v next.

went to party with us to buy sweets then walked around. quite funny cuz we were going up the escalator then this woman kept looking at cowie and talking to her friend then we heard something like KE AI as in cute.

took 970 and we saw our pri sch laoshi! she taught me in p3 I think cuz I remember she made me stay back to do zuowen. she taught cowie and gin and cowie topped the class or got really high or something. then we cldn't stop laughing when we saw her and I went to say 'what if she gets off at your stop' and she really did! but cowie and gin didn't get off. she tapped cowie and said 'ni bu ji de wo ah?' and we were laughing and laughing like crazy. notice she said that to cowie as in NI not NI MEN.

next thing to dread: getting papers back.

do we have lessons next week?

2005-10-10T15:46:00.000+08:00

free at last. chinese doesn't count since it's non-study! over over over.

physics paper today. the mcq was really hard!! I think it was harder than the written paper. the written paper seemed to be quite short but then I took ages to do the copy the diagram whatever which I later discovered that I GOT WRONG! I drew and erased it a billion times too cuz it kept screwing up!

blogged on saturday but computer died before I could post it! it was about studying physics with cowie, hot seats, musical chairs, cowie and her lucky pouches which she got two and was SO HAPPY. our wonderful time at shop n save, cowie wanting to stand at the food court to watch her zhen qing...etc I can't rmbr all now.

oh yes, ad spotting. cowie got 'zoe tay, practical mum', SK II, triumph ads, dove firming cream, bon jovi, las vegas trailer..etc :D

2005-10-06T20:54:00.000+08:00

haven't blogged for the longest time. realised I haven't opened internet explorer except to check my email once. it's been ages since I touched the computer. okay wait not quite but still, quite long.

I'm so glad history's over. really hoping to do okay for it because I know I can't count ss lit based on my lousy answering skills. It's over it's over it's over! so far it's been almost a week since exams have started and somehow it seems like a really short time, like it went past so quickly. I'm not complaining though, I like that it passes quick. I think the only thing worse than exams is getting the scripts back, especially when you know you didn't do very well.

have tried to memorise lit quotes but to no avail. I can only remember a few practically useless ones cuz cowie kept testing me on them. 'eating don't get you any where boy' and 'you have an ingrained tendency to go your own way Thomas' and 'I admire the spirit of tolerance in this town. It's magnificent. Just don't forget that we have it because we all believe in the same thing; it brings us together' or something like that. I think ultimately I'll be too freaked out to remember but it's reassurance for now that I actually tried.

I'm sad..I keep missing wangzibianqingwa and I always realise at like 8.40 when it's waay over!

I feel cheated mann..the history essay questions were the ones tested for mid years!!

2005-09-27T19:30:00.000+08:00

on a good ship lollipop
it's a sweet trip to a candy shop
where the bon-bons play
on the sunny beach of peppermint bay

lemonade stands everywhere
crackerjack bands fill the air
and there you are
happy landing on a chocolate bar

shirley temple :) hvn't heard the original one but it got stuck it my head while watching alvin and the chipmunks when brittany was singing it for her pageant. exams are in TWO DAYS! or rather one if you don't count today. I do!

yesterday we had 2 free periods cuz english and history teachers didn't come. we did a lot of math..it's quite depressing when you start from the back and NOT know how to do so you should start from the front to boost your morale first. :D

today we had no free periods at all. last eng lesson of the year! very confused between source based hist and source based ss since they seem to be the same but are different as well? hurrr. essays too.

physics quiz tomorrow. better study after this cuz I haven't really, except a few tys questions during the hols which was really really long ago! got back mole concept quiz and it's quite terrible. must remember, working is 4sf.

can't watch tar tmr :( must send my sister off.

2005-09-23T23:24:00.000+08:00

one week to exams. or slightly less since today's almost over. yet I'm here blogging. hmm. it's been ages since I last blogged so I think I should have more to say.

exams are so near, yet I dont' find myself studying very much. I mean..ultimately it's how much effort you put in as well and I really don't want to regret not studying properly. I remember telling myself that I won't start just two weeks before exams. yet I did exactly as what I said I won't do. plenty more to study and practise.

today was the last full friday of lessons we're having for the rest of the year! we had the mole concept quiz and revision of speed of reaction or whatever that chapter's called. the last PE lesson of the year! we threw and caught softballs but I wasn't very successful as usual.

did amath revision for 3 periods, realised how much I have forgotten! better do more tys questions. I'm dedicating tomorrow to doing math math and more math. shall wake up earlier than usual, start on emath followed by amath and amath tuition.

it seems like every time we have exams, nice shows come. for midyears, the amazing race finale was on the night before history exam so couldn't watch (rob and amber didn't win either so didn't feel like watching anyway) and now, america's next top model on monday, csi on tuesday, the amazing race 2 hr ep on wednesday, child of our time on thursday and survivor on friday oh and weds thurs and fri has qingwabianwangzi but perhaps eating dinner during that time makes it more productive than the others. haha. EXAMS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN TV. hope I remember that.

kinda hungry now but shouldn't eat since it's so late! pretty happy with the stuff we got back this week. bio, chem, english expository (which I was expecting to almost fail but got an average or maybe slightly below average considering a lot a lot of people got 25 and up). stayed back to study with jamie, gin and shuwen and squirrel and sangee and prilaa.

revising history with sam ting the cowie torturer and we're talking about birch and hugh low. imagine if you wrote HUGH LOW ROCKS says sam.

2005-09-17T00:24:00.000+08:00

hello. too lazy to open window so using blog this! :)

One full week ago, I told myself that I would start studying for exams. But we still have homework and projects due next week so it's really hard to study in addition to that!

really should go sleep now it's 12.20 and tomorrow there's oral! but had another long nap in the afternoon and am extremely awake right now.

ORAL TMR. I'm extremely nervous that I'll be nervous tomorrow and not know what to say. Blah.

My mind's blank right now. Can't continue!

2005-09-15T21:14:00.000+08:00

hello I have nothing to blog about :P

2005-09-09T23:08:00.000+08:00

hello! it's like friday! where did the other 4 days go? hmm. I didn't go out today! I stayed home and did lit! and now I'm doing ss.

this sunday school song was stuck in my head just now.. 'touch your finger to your nose then from your wait bend down and touch your toes and when you climb up slowly start to sing..say to the Lord I love you' :)

tuition tmr. havent' done the homework so I'm v screwed. all I remember from last wk is how to store the thing as the alphabets.

hungry!

2005-09-08T19:40:00.000+08:00

hello I am blogging. changed resolution to 1024x768 cuz of editing dno what abt displaying better. I'm tired!

tuesday went to school for chinese. interviewed laoshi and then went to emma's hse to do physics project.

wednesday went to borders cuz there's the 20% off sale thing. books! yay.

today went to rachel wang's grandfather's hse to interview him for our project, and we wanted to know from independence and he started talking from 1819. haha. okay! that was like 2 hours I think. how to edit??? our 3 256 memory cards weren't enough!

okay better go do ss now! so much hw left and all I've done is ZUOWEN. oh and must read the 7eleven book. I like 7 eleven! :) except for the gross dory dno what hotdog thing which is SMELLY

2005-09-05T16:39:00.000+08:00

I think I'm gonna get fatter. after every lunch at home, I sleep. that is bad!

amath tuition on saturday is fun :) weekly raid of 7-11 before and after, trigo worksheets that we can only do one question (the first and easiest one), passing crackers under the table, laughing at random things, complaining about the same things that happen in school and rushing out of the door when time's up. cowie and I gave ms chew a teachers day present which we decided online the night before, hershey's kisses and lip balm. but that was because our previous plan of suomafni senga got screwed up and wouldn't fit into the box. haha.

so far my studying plan hasn't been put into action. friday I did five amath problems, yesterday I did a few physics ones.

oh yes must tell you. I CAN CYCLE! plus it was only my second time on a bicycle on saturday. yay. oh and I didn't fall down and didn't bang anybody down! [it was very tempting to crash into the people who walked right in the middle of the bike path when there clearly is a footpath with big FEET printed on it but of course who wants to get hurt because of them?]

today had physics from 9-12 plus. learned about LIGHT. and mirrors and how if you want to see your full self you must have it at least half your height and dno how much above the ground. missed my bus!! gahh. doing physics project tmr!

the end of an extremely disorganised post

2005-09-02T22:31:00.000+08:00

last day of school! :)

chinese oral wasn't that bad! I was the timekeeper! we were tested by li laoshi. she reminds me of last yr in taiwan when yihui meigin and I played bumper cars against the 3 laoshis that went. haha.

did hotmail inbox expand?

it rains before PE, it rains after PE but it never rains DURING!

2005-09-01T21:10:00.000+08:00

heyy. haven't blogged for a few days.

yesterday was teachers day..school of rock. no one in my class dressed up though except the band people. the powerpoint was nice. stayed back to discuss physics.

today went to watch herbie:fully loaded. I like herbie! haha it's so cute. bought more squishy stickers. was supposed to go to the library but forgot until I got on the bus!

chinese oral tmr! I don't like oral. yuck. especially english oral. I still remember last yr's the chi convo was about some guy bashing up another guy on the bus and I said some crap about who I'd tell if I was in that situation. english was on some concert or sporting event. did I mention I HATE PICTURE DISCUSSION? haha.

2005-08-27T22:19:00.000+08:00

gosh I just erased my whole entry by accident and it wasn't the fault of the computer. *slaps forehead*

today we went to east coast to cycle, or in my case, learn to cycle the last time I cycled was when I was 4 on my pink and green bicycle with training wheels so I guess you can say I never really learnt how to cycle, something on the what you know but I don't know how list[which is pretty long].

managed to cycle unaided for like 3 times before promptly falling to one side for an hour before having lunch. went to the korean food shop near sim lim square too.

had 2 hours of amaths tuition. was almost late again due to the bus which comes at horribly long intervals. met cowie and we ran across the overhead bridge and bought our gulps and jialin's milk. ran up the steps only to realise that they hadn't ended. haha. tuition was fun :) did more trigo and we didn't know how to do a lot. talked abt a lot of stuff :) and laughed a lot at silly things. and used phone countdown timer for 30seconds to see if we could copy the answer from the board fast enough. haha.

better start revising math!!

2005-08-26T20:47:00.000+08:00

omg I wna slap myself! I'm so stupid.

2005-08-24T21:38:00.000+08:00

today was physics test chinese test and bio quiz. how horrible.

bio was funny cuz they wanted to take mr tay's picture and he shrieked and ran away. on our way back to class from the lt they spotted him in a2 and tried to take photo again and he ran to the pri sch hall side. haha :) and for the quiz I got Z..0 correct.

2005-08-23T20:14:00.000+08:00

physics and chinese tests tmr and I'm here, online, and doing amath homework which isn't due till thursday. excuses for not studying. tsk.

today we didn't have free periods. there's something about me and marksheets. both that we signed today, mine had problems. for chem she gave my mark to the wrong person, for english it's the time I forgot to re-hand in so I told her my mark and she probably didn't write it down.

today wasn't bad. we didn't get killed when handing in the ss essay (long story) and chinese we got back the paper (I feel cheated that the answers were all from the ke!! like how april thought it was reverse psychology) and had listening.

I like the 9 o'clock show though it's weird! haha

2005-08-21T21:52:00.000+08:00

there's something seriously wrong with this computer. it keeps hanging every time I try to go to another website! scanning using the antispyware and anti adware things for the gazillionth time ever. hopefully it'll help in some way.

I don't like sunday nights. it's the time when I realise how much homework I was supposed to do and didn't. but today I checked my diary and I did my homework and studied for bio. I still don't get HOW to do the history thing so just crapped. hopefully tmr morning can see what the others did. have decided to use the mg highlighters again since my highlighters all died [blue and light green. dark green mysteriously disappeared along with my pilot g2ex which I miss :(].

today after church came home and watched the first season of Bewitched. studied bio during then fell asleep. another week of school's starting. it seems weird. on monday I feel all 'another week of school. groan' and on fri it's like 'where did the week go?' seriously I should learn to cherish my time.

I need a new layout..have been using this for really long. shall go find some plain one if I have the time. ooh apprentice is starting. I need more self-discipline to study. I NEED to pass tmr's bio test in order to pass prog report!

2005-08-20T14:09:00.000+08:00

yesterday after I blogged had to rush out of the house. was supposed to leave at 6.20 so could stroll down and catch the just before 630 bus but I missed it so was kinda late. raaaan to meet amanda then we rushed up the hill and met wantheng. walked around and around trying to look for ms chang then we went to the audi and fangting had set up the camera already. yay. but it was really high cuz when the people stand up and even jump. saw luddy too! :)

was quite glad I went for love mg :)

tuition laterr!!

2005-08-19T18:05:00.000+08:00

today's math class was amusing. mrs tee was talking about how she has to sacrifice a lot of things for us such as how she likes to eat chocolates but can't or else her sore throat will get worse. then someone said 'but mrs tee, chocolates will make you fat!'

then cuz last time she was telling us abt her daughter who went overseas for uni then someone apparently said that she must be quite old since her daughter is so old. so today mrs tee was like 'first you call me old then you call me fat!' haha but we knew she was joking of course. :) the class practices aren't compulsory but mrs tee says 'do them for fun!' sure..math is fun.

PE was fun too! we ran and finished early then mrs chan was like 'are you sure you ran 2 rounds' and she made us run one more round. hmmf we just followed the people in front of us ok! then we were supposed to get into groups of 5 but there was no one left to ask and there were only 4 of us so phoebe joined our grp. everyone got to move closer except us. hmmf. she wanted us to demonstrate of all part-the RUNNING. the group we were against was really sad..they had to run so many rounds cuz we kept dropping the ball and had to start from 1 again [must throw 30 times] but it was great fun. and we played rounders. :) yay.

mr loh came in to tell us to get our files from the staffroom and some people's won't be there cuz he wants to see them and they might get booked! so we were all really scared but thankfully we found our files :)

okay must go eat and leave the hse soon! BYE

2005-08-16T20:12:00.000+08:00

realised I don't really blog anymore so I shldn't complain when people don't update. not that I did..only in my head.

Today we had English in the LT. did argumentative on 'money is the root of all evil' then our grp half of us weren't contributing, we were talking abt how emma woke up at 4 to study, how we didn't watch top model..etc haha but it was fun sprawled out on the carpet [which is very pokey and now my elbows hurt]

To return to our class room which is on the same level as the Lecture Theatre, we had to go all the way down to the 1st level and then walk across to the home ec room staircase to climb up again. that was so RETARDED.

History test! Hand was tired from writing then we had chem test which was..hmm. yea. *crosses fingers* spent recess testing cowie and multip. back to class and had traumatising chinese. HORRIBLE IMAGE is still in my mind. *tries to get rid of it*

lit we went thru paper, amaths we did some test and got back our paper. HORRIBLE.

I'm tired. the new 9 o clock show is funny :)

back to school after a nice holiday :)

I think I'm becoming more and more forgetful. It's like my mind just blanks especially when thinking abt what homework I have to do then somehow I always come to the conclusion that there's nothing, only finding and freaking out when it's due. and the tests. gosh. we got three back today. the worst was emath. I realise I do worse in easy tests than hard tests. as in hard tests I hopefully scrape a pass, but easy tests when everyone gets almost full marks and I scrape a pass? that's terrible. yes I'm terrible. I know it.

anyway after screwing up yet another test [amaths which I didn't even complete to get to the shoelace formula part], we had lit. I have this feeling one day our class is just gna get screwed for not participating. seriously.

3 periods of chem cuz mrs low swapped with bio. went to the com lab and took down notes which repeated themselves after a few slides! and they're like word for word from the textbook. had recess which was funny when we were queueing up. *tsk tsk* so childish! thursday recesses are the best cuz there's hardly anyone there! but the bad thing is that the tables are always dirty.

chem again. did tys questions but couldn't write on the paper cuz she wanted to reuse it. we got back our physics tests. not bad. I passed! :) english was doing summary.

alvin and the chipmunks are cute :) hv been watching the dvds we bought..not sure if it's worth the $$ we paid but still..very cute :)

2005-08-10T20:36:00.000+08:00

hey. today's 'the day after national day holiday'. how fun. :) watched vcds and went to the library.

Isn't it weird when people say 'you're already___ you're not ____ anymore, you're old enough to blah blah blah...' it's ironic how they start saying that when you're like extremely young and it's stupid how one year later they compare you to one year earlier 'you're already in sec1, not in primary school anymore' when they were the ones who said 'you're already p6 not p1 anymore' previously.

school tmr. thursdays and fridays are bad. if only we had the whole week off.

2005-08-08T20:32:00.000+08:00

National Day Celebrations are over!!

I'm kinda happy that it's over. It seems weird, cuz I didn't realise it had come so soon. Though not everything went as planned [but since when does everything planned actually happen?] it wasn't that bad. It rained. That was really sad cuz we tested the sound system for like really long yesterday to make sure it worked and everything. Changed venue to audi. hid in the PA room the entire time, flipping on and off the lights, which is why you could see that the lights came on too fast and gave your eyes a shock.

Walked around then helped at the t-shirt design. I don't get how some people can hand in their masterpiece after spending a long time on it and then NOT put their class. it's like handing in your near perfect exam paper without your name. and the paint wasn't dry especially one particular class [I don't know which] shirt that we all got dirtied by.

cleaned up which took really long cuz some classes finished then happily went away leaving the mess behind. thank you for letting us scrub the floor and sweep glitter away. we really appreciate it.

dumped the trashbags which were really heavy cuz of the glass bottles and they kept leaking cuz the satay sticks poked holes in the garbage bags. packed up then had lunch and left.

it's over it's over it's over!

2005-08-06T21:43:00.000+08:00

Mrs Tee is funny.."why don't you want to look at the board? My drawing not nice ah? My drawing is SO nice!"

during chinese laoshi was trying to play the track of the ke then our computer speakers wldn't work so we suggested using the cd player. krystle said that it was gna be quite soft though. when laoshi pressed play, the sound was deafening. haha.

today went to sch for national day celebration rehearsal. screwy sound system, hide and seek, hopscotch, dancing, laughing, running around.

2005-08-04T21:41:00.000+08:00

did you notice that this year, we don't hear national day songs being played before flagraising?

2005-08-04T21:13:00.000+08:00

what a marvellous day today was.

Mrs Sim came in for amaths today. Did Remainder and Factor Theorem worksheet 2. quite funny la cuz we answered more than usual [just recited from the worksheet] and she called people to answer. It seemed really short! If only all maths lessons were like that.

Lit test. I actually had things to write. Not sure if they made sense but I just wrote. This is a good thing compared to not knowing what to write at all.

3 free periods cuz Mr Tay didn't come to school so no bio lab. some people went to the library. stayed in class and did amaths homework. almost everyone was stuck on question 13 so when someone did it we all went to borrow their worksheet. then sat around and chatted about random things. it was fun :)

and then that's where somebody totally spoilt our day. I'm still extremely traumatised from what happened okay. I never heard someone shout that loudly at us before. ever. gosh. we were like super super scared and I could barely swallow my pau then we were telling chia and the others then they're like 'huh like that only ah' cuz they heard.

sigh. chem! we collected our tys then mrs low was trying to count to make sure it tallied and she counted like five times before she managed to get to 30. then we were helping her then she's like 'don't confuse me!' so we clapped when she finally succeeded in counting. mrs low is so nice. not like someone.

physics. I hate it even more than ever.

english didn't seem that bad compared to that. did compre. somehow I always don't have the last page for compre. haha. had to go dig from the pile at the teachers table again.

AMC. we were late! shaded random letters/numbers for most since I didn't know how to do. especially the open ended kind that got no 1 in 5 chance of getting right. it's 1 in 999 chance. haha. since it's from 0-999 :)

on the whole today was a nice day except for SOME PARTS.

2005-08-03T21:16:00.000+08:00

today started off with physics. we didn't get back our paper yet..tmr! not that I really want it back..in fact I kinda forgot we had a test. I think after a while my mind just goes totally blank, especially on the weekends and during memory games. weekends I go thru what we have on monday in my head and I always think I have nothing. then come to school on monday morning and I'll find out a gazillion and one things that I didn't do or bring.

chinese we got back our test papers. I'm happy cuz I passed. right now my priority is just to pass, not really caring about the grade achieved because passing is already an accomplishment by itself to me. so scraping a pass was good. the compre was weird though it's like 4 marks for one sentence? that's one thing bad about the new format, the weightage for the 3 sections are very much increased so careless mistakes will really SUCK but I'm usually not careless, it's usually cuz I dunno how to do a lot so it's really beyond hope.

we had to go around selling national day collar pins during recess. THANK YOU if you bought. BUY TMR if you didn't. :) had a packet of chips then had to go up already.

left early from history cuz we went to take class photos. aiyo it was quite disastrous. haha. we were making deirdre scream cuz she sat right in the middle for the candid shot so her face'll be really big. then she whined =D no bio. no lit test either.

emaths test. after that they persuaded mrs tee to not start on the new chapter. haha.

lunch with cowie and cassandra. haha can gang up with cassandra! she shall keep a notebook of info about cowie and her dear. haha :)

2005-08-01T21:35:00.000+08:00

hey

it's monday again! today was especially sleepy! watched this really long video during history about elections in the library. there weren't enough seats so we sat on the floor. everyone was falling asleep! was amazed that SLEEPY didn't and she even took like one full page of notes [two sides of the paper] which is scary!

recess was nice. fries and honeydew. back to class. didn't get back physics paper. got back bio though..passed! on the dot. spent the whole time going through. for the 7m question I got 1.5! sad! emath we revised. yay I think I understand statistics! sort of. :)

after school ate nasi lemak and chicken for lunch. then went library to play happyland adventures and back down. sat with shiyou. ate 3 chicken wings.

was going to start saving $$, so wanted to limit to spending $2 a day. altogether spent $4.40! aiyo.

went to visit elizabeth with a few others from our class. take care elizabeth! =)

2005-07-31T22:02:00.000+08:00

I realised I haven't blogged for almost a week! that's scary. it's like I forgot that I had a blog. :)

what has happened during the past week? I can't exactly remember.

oh my sister came back on tuesday. so no more room with aircon since the other room's one is spoilt.

I finally bought a file! no more semi squished worksheets. my worksheets weren't that bad actually..there was someone's who was worse. haha. but it wasn't her fault..it was her cat!

went to some ballet concert yesterday cuz my sister's friends were dancing. before that had tuition. went with cowie to eat gelato then we rushed to tuition. when is jia lin coming again???

today's harry potter's birthday. but that isn't important. haha. I'm re-reading the 6th book since it's back! :) yay.

omg..tmr's a new month again. after august it's september then october(eoys) then nov and dec hols then january2006 when we're sec4. *runs away*

sorry for this incoherent blog entry

Happy 118th Founders Day!

Today I was doing the mixer so I just sat in the PA room and pressed 'play' to switch between cameras and picture in picture [little box showing 2nd camera]. haha. better than standing for the whole service! :) actually founders day didn't seem as long as it usually does. maybe it's because this year there was no parade?

Had meeting in the canteen. Faith treated us to chips. Thanks Faith!! :) then we waited for Mr Ng's car to get unstuck then we squeezed in the back. Went to Rochor to see the shop and it was quite ex. I think party shops are so cool! If I ever have a party I'm gna go buy those really really nice pink plates forks balloons decorations and loot bags!

Went to The Concourse. That was traumatising. we got scolded at least twice and we went around asking for Singapore flag erasers and they actually have ok just not the whole set is Singapore then this guy's shop didn't have and he's like 'oh you can paste the sticker on the eraser' so free ah. then this freaky guy was like WHAT ARE YOU DOING when we were just going to the toilet?? and he said what don't block the way? WHAT WAY? and what hide and seek.

the pink thing is fun :) whatever it's called. it was RAINING!!

didn't get sausage bread and cupcake this yr :(

2005-07-22T20:51:00.000+08:00

hello. racial harmony day!

chem lab. mrs low is lame!! 'better come and find me before the soup gets too hot..then you'll be in hot soup!' hmm.

PE was fun..but we kinda sucked. haha. that's really sad. the floorball got dented then cldn't roll :D

recess drank peach tea then we all changed. swapped with valerie so I wore natalie's mother's erm..whatever it's called that looks like SIA uniform. *hides face* haha very tight ley the waist! could barely breathe. watched the concert from the chapel. we kept being shhed. haha. oh we won marmee and pola snack?

founders day rehearsal. was seeing how jerky the camera was then janice was asking mrs tay for a chair on that day cuz must sit then she's like 'two of you sit on each other's lap?' it sounded so wrong!

macs cuz no lunch and recess. :)

2005-07-20T20:45:00.000+08:00

OMG IS AMATHS FUNCTIONS DUE TMR?

I can't bring myself to do ANY homework cuz I'm reading harry potter. yes. and my dad bought one at like twenty bucks then he thought we had one already so he SOLD IT. that makes me want to scream. but I can wait for my sister to come back. I'm halfway through! yay. better do my functions..if I know how.

today it rained in the morning but the afternoon was pretty hot. what did we do today? Hmm..we did physics practical. it made my ruler and pencil OILY. I shall wash them tmr. gah. chinese did zuowen. was tempted to read so my compo didn't really make sense.

today for a.v.a. we had farewell. at first we cldn't find the sec4s then we're like 'what kind of seniors farewell is without the seniors' :D but we found them. and played games. and ate. we thought up a storyline. yay

I want a holiday!

2005-07-19T20:49:00.000+08:00

I need a file! I'm sitting here with a gazillion worksheets on my lap and on the computer table. Where is my file you might ask. Well, it's sitting there in the stacks of papers from last semester and it's still filled with junk.

it's been raining a lot lately! like the whole of today practically. started off with english in the LT which we got back compre. aiyo my compre was terrible. I got zero for vocab. haha. that is really sad. we presented for history. sam printed the slides wrongly..one slide per page and all in black. haha. nvm la :) at least it was visible.

chem test was HARD. =( oh well. chinese lit and amaths. stayed back to do amaths with cowie and michelle lim. did tuition hw :)
