and it comes, again.

tmr's the last day of school! woots. like finaaaaallllly. at last.school. i've skipped 2 days of school these 2 weeks. heh. just got back from chalet.

sleep deprived :/ the rain kinda dampened everyone's mood, but it was fun nevertheless. we went cycling down changi, watching planes taking off overhead, camped at one of the emergency entrances of changi airport and had 2 policemen ( 1 man, 1 woman) taking down our names. HAHA! no luh, we didnt do anything illegal. they just wanted to check that we were law abiding and ensured that we werent some lost kids. lol. we reached back downtown at 4, slept till 930, and peddled back to the bike shop to return the bikes. felt like a zombie, walking around downtown aimlessly. went for breakfast, and bridged till 2 plus 3. shant talk about the stupid bus driver who made us wait for an hour. grrrr. got back home around 7 plus and slept till 9 plus 10, dad thought i didnt sleep throughout the entire chalet, well, he was pretty close. lol

watched quite a lot of shows lately :D Fireproof, Paranormal Activity, My Sister's Keeper. and more to come;) parents and sis would not be home for the next few days, they're going overseas. have fun and stay safe! :)

i like this word: obfuscate.

very much the same, perhaps indifferent.

this week has been filled with lotsa ups and downs.

1. OP
i didnt perform as well as i wanted it to be. was quite confident in the beginning, but when i went on, i blanked out and started glancing at the slides, though nothing was on the slides. so there was a oh-so-awkward 10-15 seconds of sudden pause :/ oh wells. im thankful i answered fairly okay for the Q&A. hope that'll pull me up. ah, PW's over, so screw PW for life.

2. Promos
im extremely grateful to God that i promoted. like seriously. my promotional status was hanging on to a thin thread, that is if i pass econs, i'll promote. if not, im J1 for another year. and thankfully, i managed to get an E for econs. my chem's pretty horrid. big fat U, with a percentile of 3.7. lol .hmm. some people promoted, the unfortunate ones didnt. to those who promoted: work hard alrights, A's isnt too far away. to whose who didnt promote: take it easy man. you've got another year to work hard and get the basics right, this time round, without stupid chinese and PW, so, go for it!

3. My Sister's Keeper

this has gotta be one of the saddest shows i've watched, in the same league as Marley & Me, Up, A Walk To Remember. managed to catch this with aileen, though i literally had to fly down to cathay from fmss in 10mins. haha. the show was pretty good. slightly different from the book, but still had the main ideas around. i liked the part where all 3 children, Jesse ( the brother), Kate (the sister with cancer), and Anna (the youngest, donor sister) hugged in the hospital, where Kate was teasing Jesse that he let the cat out of the bag, and Anna apologizing to Kate because she failed to keep the secret from their parents. i thought that part was exceptionally sad and really loving. 4/5 stars for this show :)

i cant wait to catch Paranormal Activity. according to shawn yee, its pretty scary and cool. woots. haha. on the side note, i cant believe we still have to go school for one last week. so waste time! grrr.
till then!

the world still turns when you're not around.

beautiful mess.

basically, its been PW, PW, PW, and more PW for the past week. chinese has officially ceased, im so thankful for that, heh. and i really pray hard that i do not have to retake chinese. lol. PW had been more or less about oral presentation ever since we submitted our written report (finally!) hmm, now's the part about presenting. im pretty natural when it comes to presenting, i engage the audience, my hand gestures are good, etc, according to the assessors. haha. but i'll have to start memorising more content so i can fill up my 5mins worth and to be more fluent to get an EE grade! think about memorising, and i feel like sleeping. zz. life's been pretty much the same, except i've been back to fairfield a couple of times to play vball anddd, i've learnt how to play Hearts, courtesy to who else but the bridge/mahjong/hearts/whatever-card-game-you-name-it-she-plays queen, aileen tham haha.oh yea, there's a slight change to my grades, dunno why, but we still dunno the overall grade, hmm.

GP- D
Math- E
Econs- E
Chinese- E
Bio- E
Chem- U

lol, that sums it up. silly Es all over the place

its like taking a guess when the only answer is yes.

never before, is it?

500 Days of Summer.

Yes, I actually forgot to blog about this movie that I watched. It's not like some major epic flick or smth, but I just thought it would be nice to comment on it. heh. Basically, the plot wasn't fantastic, like come on, it's about a silly love story between this dude and this girl called Summer! But, I liked the way the movie was oriented, kinda ironic at times but really witty. the soundtracks weren't too bad either, although Aileen said otherwise. The tracks were acoustic-y and quite soothing, kinda suited the overall mood of the show. BUT, the major slipup was the ending! No other word except CORNY could be used to describe the ending. Man, that's gotta be one of the worst endings, beating even Sunshine;)

That aside, I must say, the only 2 times I've truly felt so physically tired was: the day after IHG and now. Today marked my first vball training in like, 3 months? I was truly looking forward to it, but I totally exposed how unfit I've becomed:( had to do 30 V situps for warmup, and that really knocked the wind outta me. Crapppp. Never been so exhausted. Oh and my fingers started cramping up on me during dinner. Grrr. Even as I'm typing now, my fingers are dangerously threatening to seize up. God, I need my fitness and touch back, badly.

Alright, my promos results are as followed:
GP- C
Econs- S
Bio- E
Chem- U
Math- E
Chi- E
on the whole, my grades actually sucked quite badly, but nevetheless, I'm extremely grateful and thankful that God worked miracles through and through. Doing my usual last minute shit studying isn't going to work here, but I did so anyways. Oh wells, I must say I havnt even really settled myself down to study. I dunno what's wrong with me, but it's most probably due to excessive gaming. heh. as for promotional status, I havnt got a clue about that. That won't be revealed till, another 2-3 weeks? Till then!

the locker thrill.

solitary stand.

Alright! In another 8 hours, I'll be recieving my H1 math paper. Not as easy as i expected it to be, oh wells. After that, it's pw for 2 hours I think, then comes the super gg-ed chemistry. I'm just hoping my form teacher doesn't say anything :/ next, GP will be quite unpredictable as usual. But I dun think my essay's powerful enough. Oh wells! Bio's next, I really hope to score here, if not I'll be depressed man. Lastly, the subject that will determine whether I promote or retain- ECONS. if I get a D, I should be pretty much safe, but I it's an E or S, man, it'll be hard:/ wish me luck! Hmm, but whatever it is, I still believe that God will deliver, an I trust in Him!:) so, for the good or the bad, I will still thank Him and Him alone! I'll prolly give a live update of my grades, so, till then!

accentuate your lies.

it sucks, period.

its been, almost afew months since i updated. whole lot of stuffs happened, like stupid promos, crazy Inter-house games and stuff. but im in total no mood to write any thing other than to vent my frustrations and anger here. like seriously wtf man, i've never felt so shitty before. and the blasted weather and freaking flu are continuously adding to my misery. i've never been so sick and so pissed. with what, i dunno. ever since i got hit by the shitty flu, its been mood swings all the way. getting easily irked with every single thing. if this goes on till next tues when i get back my grades, im seriously going to throw a table. i cant sleep, not when i can feel as if a ton of phlegm's stuck in my throat and nose.

i really miss painting and letters and violin and......
