let's look back... and recall the times we shared

When things are wrong as they sometimes will,

When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,

When the energy is low and the demands are high,

And you want to smile

But you can only sigh,

When care is pressing you down a bit,

Rest if you must but don't you quit!

A rather meaningful poem written to me by my tuition teacher and I want to share it to everyone who are feeling the same way.

Time really flies. I felt as though I have just entered NJ, going through all the orientation and all. But yesterday marks the end of school officially. In crescent, we shed tears together, for it feels extremely sad having to part with all our memorable times we spent together. In the farewell pictures that we took, we all put up a smile with teary eyes. In NJ, there seems to be a stark contrast. No one cried and we do not go around hugging each other.. But still, it'll be sad to leave behind all the laughter and joys that we shared as a class. I have to say that I have never laughed so much in my life before... the videos posted on our class blogs are extremely good stress-relief remedy!... and I'm really going to miss all this!!!!!!! =(

We had a farewell assembly yesterday... followed by the return of our result slip which left me rather sad after looking at my GP percentile.. [as I really dunno wat I can do to improve my GP under such a short period of time] ... but nevertheless... I left that aside and get myself into a 'photo-taking mood' =D . Together with the class girls, we went around the school taking photos for the first time I think... Photos are wonderful memories =D

All the class girls!!!!!!!! =D

oh.. and I'm the shortest for the first time .. haha

It's artificial grass - that's why I can lie on it (for i'm allergic to grass!!!)

haha... and i'll remember the way wendy climbed up here!!

I promise i'll NEVER FORGET 07S23!!!

taking a break

Life is revolving around 'studying' these days...

Still... there's always time for me to keep the books away and enjoy myself a little =)

Met up with my crescent friends sometime back at Long John Silver for dinner... and that day was really eventful man!! so many things happen to me!!! .. Firstly... i broke my glasses ... so gotta go and make a new pair... and because of that... I was kind of late for the dinner ... then.. my mom still forbid me to cross the road coz she claimed it was dangerous and I have to take the overhead bridge [=.=] ... so... i juz missed my bus!!! waited about 15 min for the next bus to come... and by the time I reached orchard... I was already an hour late!!! oh... and I really can't believe my terrible sense of direction.. [took me a really long time to find where sinne leisure is...=(] ... In the end.. by the time I reached... most of them already finished their dinner... except for Eileen Soh!! .. HAHA!!! [she saved my life man! ... otherwise everyone must wait for me to finish dinner... ] well... basically.. we spent the whole night TALKING!!! =DD

Here's a pic=)

Then came a special day =D
So my parents decide to take us out for dinner at Merchant Court... Ate super a lot that day and I could hardly walk after that!!! yeah... and as I have predicted... we took a walk along Singapore River again!!! .. Night life at Clarke Quay was really beautiful... [well... perhaps i'll get to go there again after A's] ...

Here's a pic i took with my mom at Merchant Court [ it's been really long since i last take a pic with her.. haha!]

ok.. time to go to sleep... tml still have to go to school for consultations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Meeting my GP tutor and Mr Yong....

post prelim life has been rather eventful =D ... Here are some reflections =D :


Thursday:

Went out for shopping with the girls.. but before that went for lunch with my parents first =D ... Shopping at Far East Plaza was quite fun... though I didn't buy anything coz I can't figure out how am I ever going wear those 'interesting' kind of tops and dresses they sell there... We then proceeded to Wisma and then to taka for more shopping...

After that, we decided to join the guys for dinner at vivo.. was really sad that we couldn't go sentosa though... i've always been hoping that i'll get to go there after prelims.. well.. nvm.. We reached there really early so we decided to go to the bookstore to entertain ourselves first... hmmm... the last time I read a book was like in Sec 4 when I took literature... quite pathetic now that i think of it... As I walked around the bookstore... I was trying to find an interesting book but couldn't in the end.. what I found was a nice corner sit with a sea view... could see sentosa and the sunset from there too... haha..that made me happy for a while.. soooo... i decided to grab a nearby book but i realized it was a bad idea coz I was at the business section... anyway... in the end.. i juz took a book from the nearby lit section and went back there to read =) ... [arh.. the book was boring =(... but the view was nice =) ]


Met the guys later at the roof top... and we juz had to play truth and dare of all the games available.. I think it is a really scary game... haha.. fun only when I get to watch others play =D ... I rather play hide and seek or catching or something.. haha!!!!!!!!!! went home real late that day... but it was sure fun =DDD




Saturday:


Went out with Jaz to IMM [coz we decided that it's nearer to our house] .. haha.. so... we talked and catch up with each other after a really really long time... =D

Friday [today]:

It's my mom's birthday.. went out at night =) ... We went to the esplanade to enjoy some nice sceneries and music and ambience etc. etc.. and ate at this korean resturant... and the food there was really nice... i think it's the first time I'm eating korean food... so still not use to eating the pickles and the other cold dishes... aside from tat ... the main dish was nice =)

The Pickles

Beef =)

Me =D

and my brother

Took a walk along Singapore River... I seriously dunno why my mom likes Singapore River so much.. anyway... I read in the papers today that Singapore River had some under water lights so I was attempting to find it... haiz.. but couldn't in the end... so sad... anyway... we walked till clarke quay [which was really really far away... ] yup.. and by the time we reached home it was really late... haha... and I'm like still not tired and that's precisely why I'm doing this now...



Ok... I figured that it's really late now so i better get going =D

Prelims is finally over! =D

I have been waiting for this day to come for weeks... =D

We had a class outing today... 23 of us went for lunch at Cafe Cartel... [that was almost perfect attendance la! super cool!] .. oh... and the funny thing was that Marvin was actually trying to cut a huge bone!!!!! omg!... I wonder wat he was thinking then la!!!

Next was shopping! =D [at Suntec and Marina Square] ... hmmm.. but sadly I wasn't really in a mood for shopping... coz aside from being super tired, my bag was really heavy and I really dunno why because all I brought was calculators, pencil case, and a few sheets of notes =D

The bus trip back home was so long ... ... but luckily got lynette to accompany and entertain me =D i then went to Kai Ling's house for a while... juz to pass her her super belated birthday present... and omg... another half an hour of bus trip!!! .. and the return journey was even worse because of the jam!! .. haha! I can't believe I actually spent more than 2 hrs on bus trips today!!!!!!!!!!

Reached home finally... and found out from the news that they launched the 'high speed atom collision experiment' today!!!... super cool la! 1000 scientists was involved in this experiment and they have spent 20 yrs building that extensive underground structure to run this experiment.. I really hope they find something interesting [like maybe atoms can be broken down into smaller entities!! =)]

Tml we'll be going shopping again.. and hopefully to sentosa[my favourite place =P] after that =DD ... I'm so excited! =D

first few days of hols =D

Prelim's not yet over... but I have been slacking a lot for the past few days... =( ... it's juz so hard to get myself to sit down and study these days... I'm still in a holiday mood =) and that's bad!

Well... Iwent out the whole day on Mon and Tues =D ... After four hours of tuition on Mon.. I was supposed to visit my cousin... but in the end didn't coz he needed to rest... so... we went to the toy museum instead... [nothing much actually] ... next ... we went shopping! Shopping at centre point was quite fun =) got some stuff for myself =D ... =P ...

On tuesday after chem... i told myself that i'll go home and study... attempted though.. for about one hour.. before my parents asked me whether I want to go watch my brother play badminton... He has badminton competition [known as Cheers competition] that day... sooo... i went =D ... haha!! couldn't resist the temptation... [gotta postpone my study again] ... in the end he won =D ... so means tml have to go again... hmmm... Dinner was at Newton's food centre... and we had lobster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =D yeah... it was really a great day! =D
