Hi again!~ Last night I was crying my eyes out, the Korean Drama was so sad... Would it kill them to make it a happy ending? *sobs* It was literally tears streaming down my face. Today was our school's be yourself day, the theme was retro~ I thought that many people would be in retro dressing, but not alot was, hmph, but I have no regrets for wearing retro. We were taking photos in class, eating, laughing, joking, it was fun. Then we got back our class photos. I'm so glad I bought the enlarged copy, I would have regretted if I didn't, it's my last year here.. *sobs sobs* But I don't know why, it seemed as though all of us had just has a look of pure innocent on our faces, like young kids who are still golden~ It was kind of cute though.. The concert was rather boring till 5/1 performed, then it was GREAT! Good news, 2/5 gets 1st for the Temasek Fabric!!! It's nice to hear our class's name being announced as top 3 everytime there's a competition. The t-shirt designing got 2nd, oh well, if I had known it was a competition, I would have put int more effort, but I guess for a rush one and a half hour job on the t-shirt, I guess we should be satisfied.. After school I went to my primary school still dressed in retro, gosh, I felt so out of place! Haha, alot of people were in school uniform, and it was starting to get really hot. I should have gone and changed into a t-shirt or something. Met up with my primary school teachers, it was really nice seeing them. Talked to Miss Quek for a long time, waited for Justin and Henry *grumbles at the both of you for being so late*. We wanted to see Mrs Soh but she wasn't in. We waited around until finally one teacher said she might have gone home. *argh* The others went home and I was waiting for my grandparents, I was so so so tired. And was going to nod off to sleep soon. Came back and 'plonked' on the bed and slept.. till my grandma asked me to wake up, shower and have a bath~ Practised piano.. now... going to watch Summers Scent!!! So... Bye! `+._GoOdNiGhT_.+`

Hi~ Today i didn't do much besides waking up, reading Harry Potter Stories online, eat and go for tuition. And now I suddenly have the urge to watch Summers Scent, the Korean Drama, my favourite Korean drama =.) My father bought a new Korean drama serial though, one of my favourite actress is in it. I only watched the first disc and I must say, I really can't believe how bitchy(sorry to have to use that word) a girl can be. These are the things that make life difficult and complicated. Sometimes I wonder why people want to be so cruel and harsh when they can lead a nice and simple life, why complicate things and cause other innocent people to suffer? It's simply not fair. The Harry Potter story I read today really made me feel solem. It was about James and Lily, Harry's late parents, and I wonder yet again, why do people want to turn to the dark side, when one can live peacefully? I wished that peace would reign in this world. But, that's kind of asking for the impossible huh? Anyway, I've got to go into high gear mode to make cards for the teachers for teacher's day~ I'm not going to buy anything, after all, it's the thought that counts right? I'll leave it here, so... Goodnight!~

Hi everyone~ This morning, I had to drag myself out of bed and meet at school at 7am for St.John's Flag selling. First we went to parkway, but at 8am in the morning, it was kind of deserted and a number of other students collecting money were already there. One miraculous thing though, a man donated a $10 note to Maxine! We were so surprised! Then we took the bus to Tanjong Katong road. There was worse, really seemed empty besides the TKGS girls at the bus-stop. Feeling low in spirits, we went on to Bedok Market. There people were milling around and we got alot of donations!!! By the time it was 12pm, I was so exhausted and my head was throbbing painfully, so when my grandparents and mother picked me up from school, I decided to go for tuition tomorrow instead of today. After lunch at a really nice place behind Parkway's NTUC, I went back to have a nap up till about 5plus pm. Rushed to get ready for the beauty pagneant and waited for my dad to come back and pick me up. We went to pick up one of my aunties and my cousin before heading to Ritz Carlton Hotel. I've recently been hearing my relatives commenting about how much I've changed, towards a better appearance, compared to Primary 6 (shudders at memory). I always hear this phrase from them, " nu da 18 bian" means as a girl grows up, she changes 18 times. It's flattering, but after awhile, it gets kind of embarrasing. At the pagneant, the IC was hilarious, simply hilarious, it's hard to explain, but i certainly laughed alot. Everyone was dressed so nicely, so chic. And what's more, I never knew that the washrooms in Ritz Carlton Hotel were so grand and nice! *laughs* I only reached back around 11.45pm. So tired... Now it's already 2.18am~ Last night, when I was thinking about leaving Temasek Secondary, a tear or two slipped out, couldn't help it, I really can't bear to leave... Oh well, I've still got to move on strong... I don't think I have anything else to say, so... Goodnight!~ =.D

Hi everyone! I'm back to blogging now! I've finally managed to reformat my computer! *all smiles* Thanks alot alot to En Chou and Nigel for helping me!~ Okay... So much has happened since about a month ago, actually, I can't remember detailed information, so I'll just relate the past happenings that left a huge impact on me. On the 24th or was it 25th of July, I went to my Grand Aunty's fruit plantation in Batuh Pahat, Malaysia. All I can say is that I loved every single minute of it! The scenery was breathtakingly beautiful! I was so entralled! I went for a walk down at the plantation and all around me were trees of diferent fruits, it was like walking through the woods, that has been my dream for ages! It finally came true. It was the last week of the durian season, so we still managed to eat alot(and brought home alot), of durian too! It was just great!!! I can't wait for the September holidays, I'm going to go there again with some friends this time round, I can't wait to go back there!!! It's just so peaceful~ Oh and not to forget the really nice and fragrant coffee. It's like starbucks, only nicer and much cheaper! On to the next event, I got accepted into the integrated programme at TJC! I was so so so happy, but, felt extremely sad as well... I only have barely 2 months left in Temasek Secondary... *sobs* All my friends from Temasek Secondary reading this now, please note: KEEP IN TOUCH!!! please? I'll miss you all loads.. Thank goodness Prerna is also going to TJC~ Enough with the past events, moving on... Now looking at the future, we have about 11 more school days before the end-of-the-year exams! That's seriously too fast, way too fast. I've got to start studying harder! Let's just say I'm not satisfied with my marks this term, except for Geography. Luck must really be on my side for the two Geography CAs. The first one I got 27/30 and the second one I got 19/20, trust me, I couldn't believe my eyes. Ever experienced that kind of a feeling whereby you see what you consider a good mark for a test paper which you expected to do badly, and feel nothing but sheer surprise and after awhile the numb feeling washes away and you are so happy? Yeah, that was the kind of feeling I had. Anyway, I was disappointed for Literature, I was hoping to get a A2 and above, but I only got 69, why must I miss that one mark!!! Oh well, accepted it and will work harder. The coming Tuesday is be-yourself-day in my school, and the theme this year is retro, so I went looking around at This Fashion tonight with my parents, bought a simple top, just to participate in it, I think it'll be rather fun, the only thing though, I don't think there's any way that I can possibly do the ACES day workout in the retro outfit. Can't wait to visit my primary school teachers and to meet my friends. Today Vanessa came over, was really glad to see her, haven't seen her for AGES!!! We got to meet more often ya Kirbs? And don't worry that I wouldn't have time to meet up next year just because of the intergrated programme, I will definately make time. BFFs girl!~ =.D Tomorrow night, I'm going to support my cousin, 19 years old I think, who had made it to the finals of a beauty pageant, all the best!!! Argh, I just remembered I have to wake up at 6.30am tomorrow on a Saturday morning, *groans*. Have the St.John's flag selling CIP thingy with Maxine and Prerna... Anyway, there's nothing much more for me to say now, I'll add as I remember~ Oh yes, congratulations to John, Shawn and the others who got full marks for this time's Geography test! Great Job!!! =.D
