Crawling out of this phase.

It’s been an eventful week.
First was service learning, then cross country and today, results day!

I felt that service learning was meaningful, though I pretty much wished we could have done more.
It’s also the day you realise how awesome Mr P is and I think s24 is really too blessed to have him as our CT. :B

Had class breakfast before heading to Pipit Road to execute our My Big Sweep Project.
We were there to clean houses for people who need it.
It was disheartening knowing that the granny didn’t really want all of us to help her clean up.
We weren’t allowed to use water to clean her floor nor were we allowed to move her items, as she insisted.
We could only do a minimum and there was so much more to be done!

It was my first experience in a 1 room flat, with bed bugs, faced with not-so-pleasant conditions.
Glad we did what we could still.
I vividly remember the time we went a little crazy and started singing songs while cleaning the toilet.
It was a fun experience, we just kept spamming Cif in the toilet (toilet warriors, we are!) and had cif spurted on our faces.
I accidentally knocked the bottle into the toilet bowl too hee.

Had class lunch after too.
Couldn’t believe all that we went through but it was worthwhile and such a valuable experience.
It was a good day!
I woke up the next day with a butt ache though I don’t know why!

Cross country was just amusing, heehee.
First aiders, alright! ;)

Results day was overwhelming.
Sitting at the back of the hall and watching my seniors await their results was just results day in smss all over again.
Just that it’s more crucial now because the A level cert is determining our future.
Sigh, thinking that it will be what I’m going through next year is really.. I don’t feel ready.
Happy for my seniors who have done well, knew they could do it! It’s just so crazy when you see them with 90 rank-points asidoahweojfns, Howww did they!
It was scary, nerve wracking, but yet inspiring.
Hard work perseverance determination goals balance, come on everyone let’s go!

We got back our Chinese results too.
Started feeling anxious towards the end and I really didn’t know what to expect.
I’m satisfied though and I’m really happy for my class!
So thankful for laoshi, really, really, really.
She’s the besttttt!
“1, 2, 3, XIE XIE LAO SHI!”
I think laoshi was touched. :)

All right, my eyes are so dry they are screaming for oxygen.
TGIF! I hope you had a good week! :)

 

So, tomorrow’s the day!

How will you be concluding your PW journey?
Sounds quite retarded eh.

When PW first started, the very initial impression, I thought I might like it.
(Haha, okay I may be a real retard, or maybe I’m just weird.)
But halfway through the start (Preliminary Ideas), I despised it.
Then it became quite a chore.
And I started to take Pw lessons as lessons I could relax in and take my time.

However, after Lynn left, I thought to myself, this won’t do, better start cracking!
And I felt that I did what I can for Pw and my group, so I’ll have no regrets whatsoever.

Of course, we may stumble and fall, we make mistakes, but we manage to make things work!

Hopefully, it ends much better than how it started.
I can’t believe it’s tomorrow.

Let’s not fear, for fear is contagious.
We’ll help each other, everyone.
We’ll give each other the confidence we all need.
&We’ll end it well.

All the bestttt, s24!

 

While that video plays,

Civics class now and so many things are going to be happening this week and only this week.

MSAs this week, which I don’t know what I’m going to do about.
A lot of catching up but I should stop harping on this, because it merely adds too much unnecessary stress.
Afterall I just keep thinking about it, not doing anything about it, grrr.

Aunt’s coming to Singapore for the first time and I want to be around then because it’s only those few days she’ll be here and I’d think that this is crucial for my mom, having not seen her sister for too long already.
I want to make her vacation here a fun and significant one, heh.

More remedial lessons, more catching up, more events.
&I was kept awake last night because my dog (Jack) snores too loudly. :(
I feel bad for chasing her off my bed but you know, I woke up at 0333 and almost refused to go back to sleep.

Hectic week ahead. I hope it’ll be fine.

I HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON FY! :(

 

Knots

I still can’t believe it but it’s time to live in reality.
I think I rarely do.
I’m flying tonight tonight tonight!
It’s more apprehension than excitement and at the end of the day I guess the apprehension will be deemed redundant.
It’ll be a crazy week ahead.
Are you looking forward to your crazy week?

In anycase, there was class lunch on Sunday!
That day was really quite insane too.
As posted previously, I woke up with an eye infection.
After I got off the computer after the posts, I laid in my bed and got too comfortable.
So I decided to sleep to rest those eyes.
Hah. Guessss what!
Before I went into deep sleep I imagined myself waking at one.
And then when I really woke up and checked my phone for the time, it was 1300!
I was all “omgomgomg how”, since we were supposed to meet at one.
Hello, I’m not the ridiculously late kinddd.
At first I did mention that I won’t go already but, Eugene and his mind game!
I went in the end, and I’m glad I did though I didn’t stay long.
I wasn’t feeling wellll, and so far only xiaowei knows why I think.
Yup so, this was us!

In anycase I’ll be back soon!

 

We could leave this town and run forever.

And today was a good day.
You have no idea how glad I am that my PI passed the teacher’s criticisms today.

I like Letisha’s analogy about swimming.
Each time we go for pw lessons, we shall call it swimming lessons.
Because we have to swim in deep shit in order not to drown.
Don’t forget the goggles, swimming cap and all.
Treading in water will be difficult but we will perservere!

Now I really wished I could help my classmates who need for theirs.
I don’t wish for them to feel that feeling of loss.

Now that the deadline is extended, I hope they find their way on time.

 

Risking time here. At least alittle.

[Cont'd]

Yesterday too, was the chinese drama thing that some from class were forced to pay for.
Others paid for some chinese orchestra thing.
Well it was at 1930.
And guess what, the day officially ends at 1400.
I went for extra GP actually so it doesn’t count as 1400.
But anyway, I still stayed in school throughout.
The bad thing was, everyone had cca. >:(

What I’m really appreciative of is that though I was alone at the Cafe, ahem, supposedly doing work, Letisha did come by during her toilet break and Clarice came over after water polo training was cancelled. :D
Super awesome Seven!
I still don’t know if we’re called High Seven or Seven.
Okay okay I think High Seven, we started out as that. B)

Oh oh oh and Joseph came back for the drama!
It was nice seeing him again.
And I hope things get brighter for him in NP.
Funny how he was super high, hahahaha.
Plus added sugar rush!

Reached home and it was past ten already.
I had dinner and all and did one of the worst things ever.
Sigh.
I slept with my contacts on till past 0400.
Felt really horrible, and being very choonling, I wore them still for choir today.

Choir ended at 1600, much earlier than all of us expected.
But it was because the rehearsal was good.
So yup.
I’m excited to sing on that stage. :D

 

Stay as it is

 

The good man.

It was Joseph’s last day today.
I feel really bad, for not giving him a proper farewell.
He deserves one for being a superb class rep and a lovely friend.

No matter how hard I tried to hold those tears back, they still flowed out and wasn’t within my control.
I really didn’t want to cry in front of my classss.

His birthday card for me made a lasting impression on me, and with an unfinished board and all that for him, I felt awful.
And because Joseph is leaving sa forever, I just felt really sad.

Sigh.

I hope his dreams come true.

Thanks for those who asked if I was okay, for the hugs, the tissue (Sorry Letisha! ): ).
And I’m really apologetic that my crying made Lynn cry too.
Ahhhh.
Oh and I’m really thankful for those who came so early this morning!
I wasn’t expecting it, but it doesn’t mean I look down or have no faith in you guys.
It’s because you have to go out of your way to be early, and because you did, I’m really thankful.
Same for those who were excused.

Anyway, there was an epic moment in civics that followed after.
Got myself to stop the flood gates by math that was before civics.
Then the High-five gang grouped together to do a story kinda thing that was based on Egypt.
Everyone should have been in the group because we made so much nonsense, we laughed till we cried.

Our story’s main character is Jose.
And I like the story nonetheless. :D

The high-five gang is awesome.

Just that, class won’t be the same without Joseph.

 

I heard them shouting your name.

I just felt like coming here before I get my second bath of the day, then coffee, then work (hopefully).
Don’t wanna fall asleep early.

Today was sports day.
When it was late in the afternoon, I was still feeling so happy that our combined class event won like first first first!
Though I knew I had a performance at night, I really didn’t want to let another sports day pass without cheering.
Previous years I couldn’t too, because choristers will check, heh.
This time I was screaming like crazyyyy.
Heh.

Before that the class keep telling the three guys,”better win okay!”
I even told them, not just win okay, must be first!
They said they will and look what they achieved. B)
Deren, Dilong, and Joseph did us proud.
Congrats, congrats!
Deren made a good lead and the gap was really big.
Then dilong continued it by running like mario, hahaha.
Then joseph chiong ah!

But of course, it’s also because 09s27 has powerful runners.

Eh and Joseph was so disappointed that tau huay was cancelled since many people had plans already.
Maybe we can have it if pe can’t be shifted tomorrow!
Hoho.

Anyway, good job to alll, (as long as I know you)!
I’m so mega proud of them.

And choir cip performance just nowwww.
It was not that bad for a start. :B

Oh and I wonder how the st margs band is doing at the esplanade now. :D

 

She was going to make me cry

Nerissa Tay choonlinggggg….. ):
i know this is really random, but i really really really miss you, and all the st margs peeps.
and the gossips in the morning.
and all the times when i thought i couldn’t make it
and you would encourage me with a note every morning.
and the chocolates
and the talks
and the smell. HAHAHA.
and i really mis…s everything so much i feel like crying now.
maybe it’s because tomorrow is monday.

Because I miss life at st margs too.
And yes, maybe the fact that tomorrow is monday is equivalent to a whole new week of torture. :/

 

That tau huay day

I like, I like. :D

 

Funny little things

Today was a hilarious day at school.
Actually I shouldn’t say so because, I feel bad towards laoshi.
But it was funnnny.

Half the class didn’t do chinese homework, heh.
And then we were telling her all our co-curricular activities.
And tooo, class complained about how much we had to pay for the notes and all.
There are people who think the treasurers anyhow use the money lor.
I don’t know if they really mean it but yeah.
Lack of trust, tsk. ):<

Anyway, the whining, playing of Eggs Away and Ovenbreak, invention of computer club (hahaha), and training to lift one eyebrow till the eyebrows are near cramping (hahahahaha), Xiao Wei writing Ethan as Ethane (hahahahahhaha), and all those funny episodes.

Looking forward to tauhuey tomorrow!

There’s a new, “Jinx, you owe me tau huey!”

 

Yet another year older.

It’s been quite a day yesterday.
Being honest, I was unhappy for a start.
Why did my birthday have to be today, I thought to myself.
Wasn’t in the mood for celebration, nor for smiles.

However, as the day went on, my class allowed me to get that smile.
They allowed me to feel much better as the day progressed.

I wasn’t expecting anything.
Their handshakes, hugs, gift, cards/ letters, and birthday song all meant something.
In some way or another, I’m still really touched.

Some of them wrote such adorable letters.
Some of them were really sweet.
No matter how gloomy I may feel, it’ll make me smile.
Awesome.

The even better part of the day came after.
FY arrived at the foot of my block wayyyyy before meeting time.
(Is the expression correct? Oh and I’m so glad I was back in time after tauhuey with somem classmates!)
I was shocked and whiny (because I didn’t get to wash up) but I knew FY was capable of her doingsss.
Rawwr.
(Pardon me if my expressions are wrong. I’m afraid they don’t sound like what I really mean because of my use of words. ): )

But in anycase, when I took the lift down and saw herrrrrr.
Man did I think she just came back from a vacation at Paradise Falls with Russell and Mr Fredrickson.
I was all woah, oh my gosh, ahhh, and everything altogether.
How in the world did she even make it to strathmore rightttttt!

Here’s a sneak peek of it all,

Balloons oh balloons.
They look really pretty yesterday.
They dominated my ceiling.
Meet Romeo toooo, the the the panda! :D

Look at how they flewww.
However todayyyy,

There was only one who outwitted, outplayed and outlast the rest.
The last one standing.

Love having the balloooons around.
How I wish they never will deflat.
Aiks.
My eeyore balloon since 10 months ago has never deflated and never will. :B

FY met Mummy again and we went out for dinner and ice cream and allllll.
Not forgetting FY’s delicious caramel cupcakes!
I had one for breakfast before physical training today. :D
I’ll tweet the photo of a part of the box that contained them.

Mmmm. Was exhausted by the end of the day.
It was finally friday, thank god it was friday.
Then I had a goood night’s rest.

THANKYOU,
For everyone’s efforts for making it such a lovely day yesterday.
Special thanks to FY, who deserves really alot of credit for colouring my day, from it’s black and white.
I need to emphasise alot of thanks but how do I do that? ):

Love love love,
