First week of the school term had been crazily hectic. On Monday, school ended at 10am, but I was stuck with math remedial with Mr Ang for 3 hours, going through the diagnostic test which I got 28/100. =( I missed the ambassadors' briefing because of that. Then went to KLP(Kallang Leisure Park) with some of the floorball girls(Teresa, ChengNee, Naomi, Melissa) and had 'afternoon tea' at Nihon Mura. Trust me , it wasn't afternoon tea, more of a late-lunch-combined-with-dinner. I ate like 4 plates of sushis and a big piece of black forest cake. We lost track of time and thought we had alot of time to digest our food before training starts. We were so wrong, by the time we finished eating, it was like, 5pm? Training at Valhall starts at 5.30pm. Sure enough, we felt like puking after training started. Serve us right. Lol.
Training was pretty tiring because Coach refused to let us have a break until we hit the target of 10 goals in that one drill. And I got a bruise under my eye for crashing into Teresa's head. Until now, the bruise hasn't fully disappeared. For the past week, I went to school looking like a disfigured panda with only one eye black.
*** Tuesday was TJC Open House 2009. Classes ended at 10am and earlier for the ambassadors but I went for Econs lecture anyway since there weren't much to do. I was pretty slack, mostly at the floorball booth and mini rink playing away instead of showing visitors around. =X Sis came for the Open House too. Well, I had to persuade her to because she doesn't really like TJ. She says it's the uniform. Lol. Whatever, but I'm glad she did put TJ as her 2nd choice after all. I'm so proud of her because she did very well.
*** Wednesday timetable was switched back to Tuesday's which I happily welcomed. Because my classes end at 11.40am on Tuesdays. Lol. But the thing is, the gate only opens at 12.30pm, so I decided to crash H2 Econs lecture and ended up falling asleep in the LT. Then head to Parkway with Ah Cat to get Wenhui's present. I was laughing like crazy when Ah Cat told me how she describe to the staff at Sembawang Century Sq the album she was trying to find. It's super hilarious, but I won't post it here in case she gets embarrassed. =X
So, after buying the DBSK album, we went for lunch at Pasta Mania and had our favourite Beef Bolognaise. Seriously, Pasta Mania has the best Beef Bolognaise. Then, we went to get Scoopz ice-cream. Don't mind us, we're gluttons. Then we went opposite for Koi Cafe's bubble tea which Michelle recommended before. Met Bernard there which is no wonder. Haha. Anyway, the bubble tea is super duper nice. Alittle pricier but it's definitely worth it. It belongs to the same company which owns the famous bubble tea chain stores, 50 Lan, in Taiwan. So, technically, you're getting the same ingredients as you would get if you're in Taiwan. And they have seats outside the shop for you to sit down and enjoy your bubble tea. So, Ah Cat and I just sat there for over an hour chatting and gossiping.
Yay to myself for finally finding a bubble tea shop which sells bubble teas as good as Taiwan's. I foresee myself buying a cup(and getting fatter) each time I visit Parkway.
Left at around 4.45pm to go Valhall. Was the first to arrived and nearly fell asleep sitting on the bench, leaning my back against the wall. Training was tiring again, I didn't feel like running because my legs were still sore from playing floorball the day before. Serve me right for not doing proper warm-ups. But this should stop, I can't be lazing around for all the trainings.
*** Thursday was a rather long day. I can't really remember much about Thursday except that I had table tennis training after all that classes. Then I reached home pretty late, and had to rush to do the math online quizzes which, thank goodness, wasn't difficult and I was able to score full marks for both.
*** Friday, only the 5th day of the school term and I was already late for school and had my EZ-link card confiscated.
Had alot breaks in between my classes. If all the breaks were taken away and all my classes were shifted forward, I would have ended school at 11.40am. Early in the morning, was a 2-hour break which was well-spent doing Math and Chemistry tutorials. Then there was the Econs H2 lecture which was another well-spent period, catching up on my sleep. LOL. I just crashed the lecture to enjoy the air-conditioning and fell asleep on the chair for the whole 50 minutes. You know, after I woke up, Mrs Beetsma had not even started on the first page of the lecture notes? I wonder how she can talk for 50 minutes without going into the main topic. Must have needed alot of skills to do that.
Lunch was crapping with Ah Cat at the Marquee. Then GP. School ended after that. Friday's the only day on which I finally don't have any trainings, but I still had to wait till 5pm to get my EZ-link card. =( So we were back at the Marquee with Huixian, Faustina, Siying, Jollene, Charmaine. They're seriously funny, I just kept laughing non-stop when I'm with them. Then I went to crash their Leo General Meeting. Not very interesting la, haha. But I got to know that Kendra's a super nice girl! She's so nice that she didn't look like a PD because all the other PDs(especially the one in my class) were so arrogant and talk to their members like they are very big, just because they hold a position in the exco. PD from my class, learn from Kendra la!
*** Saturday was Go Green Day. My class was allocated Blks 519-522 in Bedok North area. We were pretty fast. By 11am, we were done with loading all the old clothes and newspapers collected onto the truck. Then Ah Cat and I walked across the road to this place to have lunch. I ate alot again - chicken rice, beancurd tang yuan and a cup of grass jelly.
Then took bus 225 to Bedok Inter to meet Teresa before we cabbed to ITE Macpherson for Agape training. 2km warm-up run was alittle tiring but still okay because I had done similar stuffs for PE a few days ago. Training was alright, not very intensive, which was good for me. Agape had very good players(think RJ, VJ, Singapore Schools), which was pretty intimidating at first. Lol. But I guess I got used to it after awhile. Martha Quek was there and went through the basics with us. Coach Marcus's similar to Coach Kenneth in some ways, like how both of them always explain the rationale of practising a drill.
Training ended around 4pm+, then was heading home when Dad called halfway and pick me up from Simpang. Went Parkway for dinner at Chaozhou Inn and had my favourite Scoopz ice-cream. I 'gei kiang' and decided to change flavour to green tea from my usual durian one. Their green tea flavour is not nice, still can taste the green tea powder inside! Yucks. In future, I'll just stick to durian flavour. Haha.
*** Woke up quite early today. Actually wanted to go watch the Div 3 guys matches at 12noon but decided to give it a miss because by the time I finished my Econs 11 short-answer questions and an essay(blame it on that crazy teacher), it was already 11.30am. So I just slacked in front of the TV, watching Power Sunday because there was Ruan Jing Tian in today's episode. Lol. Alright, I need to go finish up Bio Genetics II tutorial or else I'll get thrown out of class tomorrow. |

First of all, I'm a Kpop fan, especially of 2PM, MBLAQ, 2NE1 and FT Island. Actually, I like Kpop, Korean entertainment, Korean dramas, Korean language, Korean culture, Korean food, basically anything Korean. So I guess you can call me a fan of Korea.
Second, eating is one of my favourite pastimes. I think my size says it all. =P I'm not picky about food but there's only one thing that I don't like eating, that is, sweet potato.
Third, I love sports. Been playing table tennis for about 6 years now, and floorball, 2 years. But I would have to say that I like floorball more. I don't know, but putting the ball into the goal, making an accurate pass, chasing after the ball, even sweating like a pig, gives me the sense of satisfaction that nothing else can.
Fourth, I can't live without the Internet. You can take away my phone, TV, mp3, bed, but please don't take away my Internet because...I just can't live without the internet.
Lastly, if there's anything I dislike, it would have to be making decisions. Where to go, what to eat, what to do next, which is nicer/better...I just don't like deciding. I always leave it to others because honestly, it doesn't matter where we're going, what we're eating or what we're doing to do. What matters most is the company and whether we're having a great time together.
