Another interesting day at school
Friday, June 29, 2007 9:25 PM
2 things to sum up yesterday: One, while on the bus to school, I saw this lady who resembles Jeong Ryeo Won(the actress who acted as the pretty ex-girlfriend of Hyun Bin in My Name Is Kim Sam Soon).

Of course, she isn't really her but just as beautiful as her. And two, I was late for school even though school only started at 8.50am. I had to served detention which was standing outside General Office with me facing the wall for 1 hour 15 minutes, together with Rocket, Ben & Zhengyi. That three jokers.

Today was another interesting day. Andrea had Yingiet to buy a box of mealworms so that she could scare Andy who is scared of creepy-crawlies(like who wouldn't?) for calling her a 'fishball'. During 1st recess, the four brave girls: Grace, Andrea, Mag, Tse See tried to tie a mealworm with a string on the teacher's table. Gross. I can't imagine anyone trying to touch a mealworm with his own bare hands. They managed to tie the string around the mealworm, but it came off soon after. Then they decided to just put the mealworm into Andy's tissue pack and return it to Andy when he comes back from recess. Andy's reaction was classic. Haha. He took hold of the tissue pack for a few seconds before he realise there was something crawling in it. He flung the tissue pack without even considering where it would land. So it was flung at Julian but somehow, the mealworm landed next to Yingiet who was like half the width of the classroom away. The girls continued to put the mealworm on Andy's Crumpler. Poor Andy. That should be enough to make him think twice before calling Andrea names in future. But his reactions were really funny.

Miss Tay was absent today so Chemistry was left for us to do some simple chemistry crossword puzzles. The girls & I went to the library to complete it. After which, Yingiet gave out the study group time-table which she & Zhiying did for us. Took one look at the time-table and we started bursting out in laughters. See for yourself what's on it: ( I'm not sure if you can see it clearly, maybe you can try clicking on the image to enlarge it)


After 2nd recess, we started playing & splashing one another(especially Yingiet) with water. Yingiet was chasing after us, trying to slap our backs with her wet palms. Childish, but fun. We laughed till our stomachs ached.
Went to Eastpoint with Tracy & Zhiying after school to get some stationary & paraphernalia for school from Popular. Then we had afternoon tea (bubble tea + curry puff/chicken mushroom pie/spaghetti). Haha. Talked about really silly yet funny stuffs while we ate. Really enjoyed the girls' company alot. With them around, it's difficult not to laugh.

Connie, the stupidest & most gullible
Wednesday, June 27, 2007 5:59 PM
I must have been the stupidest & most gullible person in the world. Yesterday, Shanmin, Leon & Ether told me that they each got an SMS from TJC saying that they were accepted into the school by DSA and I was stupid to enough to believe them. There wasn't an SMS from TJC to me so I thought maybe I didn't do well for the interview and didn't make it through.

I only found out today that they had all been lying to me when Julian asked me about my DSA. There weren't any SMSes. Some friends they are. Haha. Okay, they did tell me the truth yesterday but I misunderstood it to be something else. Shanmin sent me an SMS during class yesterday after they 'received' their SMSes, saying 'Congratulations! You are accepted for TJC's DSA! You may join your friends Leon, Ether & Shanmin!'. I thought they were trying to console me and then, Shanmin told me that it was all untrue and was Leon's, Ether's & her idea. I thought she was talking about the SMS she sent me, so of course I knew she was trying to console me and I went, 'I know', not knowing that she was actually talking about the whole TJC DSA SMSes thing.

Leon heard me talking to Julian about how I am not accepted for TJC because I didn't 'receive' the SMS. Leon was like 'Huh? You mean you didn't know we bluffed you yesterday?' Argh, so malu. Shanmin said I'm slower than others by a day. Hey, do you know I was so sad that I came home yesterday, didn't eat any dinner, and cried in my room the whole night? Didn't you notice my eyes were puffy this morning? HAHA. Just kidding.

It's been the second time this month that I've been tricked. The other time was at the team outing at Bugis' Seoul Garden. I was trying to pry open the see-hums but to no avail. So jL told me to throw it hard on my plate and it'll open. I seldom eat see-hums right from the shells so I thought he had more experience in eating see-hums than me and I believed him. The next I know, the girls were laughing at me. Yes, I know, I'm one stupid, slow, gullible tortoise.

School today was rather fun & funny. We had photo-taking for the yearbook in the morning. All the 11 of us(table-tennis,basketball girls & 1 netball girl) took the group photo together. We chose a pretty cool spot in the fitness corner which was the drain on the steep slope. There were steps in the drain so, the half of us were at the steps & the other half on the slope. So, we were arranged in a Do-Re-Mi manner. Bet the photo will turn out nice!

We had to go to Spring Rhapsody to do this Quality of School Experience Survey. The lady said we may take 45 minutes to complete it. But I finished it in like what, 5 minutes? Everyone soon finished the survey and we were using the internet to view blogs, play games, etc. Grace, Tse See, Zhiying, Andrea, Tracy & I were viewing Celeste Chen's blog and Grace had to stick a piece of paper onto the left side of the computer screen so that we can all read her entries without seeing Celeste Chen's nightmare face. Haha.

During the 2nd recess, we headed back to class from the canteen and on the corridor at our block, we saw the new PE teacher, Mr Derrick Ho, with another teacher walking in the direction towards us. The girls (namely Shanmin, Yingiet & Kristy) went crazy and hysterical. They think he's cute. Kristy was telling us to pretend to faint or fall in front of them. Although, she was only joking, she kept showing us the super funny half-fainting-half-falling action, without having any idea that both Mr Ho & the other teacher were nearing us. Omigosh, I think they saw what Kristy was doing, at least I think the other teacher did, but he probably thought that she was either crazy or had legs made of jelly. Embarrassing! Haha. The rest of us girls laughed so hard & loudly that I think all the classes on the same floor must have heard our laughters and thought there were a bunch of asylum escapees on the loose in our school. Mr Ho & the teacher must have thought so too. When we saw Mr Ho drinking at the water cooler, Yingiet immediately said she need to refill her water bottle. Haha. What's even funnier is that throughout the day, the girls kept doing the half-fainting-half-falling action which looked really stupid.

Being with the girls is always so fun & hilarious. Really don't know what will become of our friendship after we graduate. There's no such a thing as friends forever. I would rather we remain as friends always.

Photos of my house
Sunday, June 24, 2007 10:07 PM
Okay, I realised I've never posted up proper photos of my house before. So I took some photos when I reached home just now. Another entry of photos. I found photography an art ever since I saw photos posted up by professionals and freelance photographers on a forum. They were so beautifully taken that one could have mistaken the photos of being photoshopped. Even though I don’t have a proper digital camera yet, I still often take photos using the handphone camera even though the image quality isn’t that good.

School’s starting tomorrow and it’s gonna be a stressful term ahead. Aja, everyone! It’s a good thing school’s ending early at 11.20am tomorrow because I’ll probably have to go all the way to Buona Vista to submit my ACJC DSA application after school. My dad is dissuading me to apply for ACJC because he thinks it’s too far. But personally, I don’t mind going the distance if it’s a good junior college.

Drooping jeans
Saturday, June 23, 2007 10:03 PM
Just came back from dinner at Funan's Sakae. I left the house in such a rush in the afternoon (because my dad was gonna fetch my sister from her netball carnival) that I forgot to grab a belt before I left. So anyway, I ended up walking around with a pair of drooping jeans & had to pull it up every now & then. It was so uncomfortable.

I finally completed SS mindmaps in 2 hours!!! But I reckon Mrs Jain won't be happy with my work because I merely copied down all the main topics & sub-topics. Haha.

New song on my radioblog, 杀手 by 林俊杰. I think it's nice. Except that the MV is rather scary because JJ looked every inch a perverted serial killer & raper (notice that raper is placed after killer) in it. Haha.

SS mindmap? I give up
Thursday, June 21, 2007 5:46 PM
This seriously sucks. 3 more days till the new term start and the Social Studies mindmap I did on the computer refused to print. I did all that for nothing. I give up. I had never saw the point of doing mindmap for SS anyway.

Just received a call. I'm so relieved now. Haha. But it still doesn't mean anything yet.

Oh yes, the neoprints we took during our team outing!

Here are the photos(courtesy of Kristy) taken when the girls came over to my house & during the team outing. Yes,they are long overdued. Again, please do not mind the collages because there are simply too much photos to upload to my blog. Click on image to enlarge if there's a need to.

Happy Father's Day
7:28 PM
Yesterday was Father's Day, so HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to all dads out there. Father's Day is actually inaugurated to complement Mother's Day in celebrating fatherhood and parenting by the males, and to honour & commemorate fathers. But it's funny why father's day celebrations are not as widely observed as mother's day celebrations or why fathers are often viewed as playing a secondary role when it comes to parenting.

Alright, I’m not gonna start debating or anything. Hahaha! Happy Father's Day!~

4F Class BBQ @ ECP Pit 22 on 13 June 2007
Friday, June 15, 2007 7:40 PM
Yep, it was our class bbq last Wednesday. We went to the mini arcade, we biked, we bbq-ed, we took many photos(stupid ones too), and most of all, we had loads of fun.

Pardon me for posting the photos in collages because it would take me till tomorrow morning to upload 299 photos to my blog. Haha.

Alright, let the photos(courtesy of Zhiying & Weijie) do the talking. Click to enlarge.

Family movie@Cathay

Sorry for the lack of updates because I've been rather busy for the past days. Let's see, last Wednesday, after DSA at TJC, the girls (Zhiying, Andrea, Kristy, Hweeli, Yingen) came over to my house for tennis, sauna, pool & TV. Fun-tastic!

On Thursday was team outing which was 3 hours at Bugis' Seoul Garden with the table-tennis girls & 教练. After which, we took team photos using the neoprint machine. Haha. Then we headed for Bugis Street before going to look for KC at his shop.

I'll post those photos another time when I have the time.

******************
Went out with family to The Cathay to watch Shrek 3 just now in the evening. Great movie. We practically laughed from the start to the end. Puss in Boots was cute when he tried to act so innocent,cute and all. Only thing is, I ate so much junk food.

After the movie, we went for dinner at The Cathay Restaurant. The food combinations are kinda weird, but the food's not bad.



I'm curious why Rainie Yang is acting in an R21 movie

The negative mode photos are taken by my brother. I think they're pretty. Seems like he's a better photographer than I. By the way, the blurry food photos are taken by me. Haha.

I've finally finished Biology homework! Woohoo! I finished 13 topics in 6 hours today. But I still have alot of homework waiting for me to complete. :(
