This Journey of Ours

Eventful

This few days in school this week can be summed up as - EVENTFUL. Yeap. Happenings and what not, peppered throughout the week.

Tests. Homework. Tuition. The daily routine that drives my life. Sighs. The tests I mentioned. Especially chinese, my lord. I can't do it. Stupid me. We went for jogging in the morning, on Tuesday morning. Lol.

The above was typed awhile ago. In which, the school held a Sports Day which was quite alright excluding the fact that Therese got her sister's cellphone confiscated and I got quite sunburnt, it was quite a day. I might need to jog my memory.

Up next, would be on E.R 2008. Aids Convention. Going out with Therese etc. Table for three.

Sometimes, I just wish I had a laptop.

And It Begins

Tests.

"Zhong Che"s. (A test in which covers a whole year syllabus)

Tests. and Tests.

Sighs. 1st Chinese Zhong Che tomorrow. 3 Main Chapters with 3 sub-chapters in it. It might seem like a small number, but TRUST ME, it isn't. It's a whole LOAD of things to commmit to memory if not forever, but for at least the next few hours. The whole ancient chinese poems, literacy etc etc. Thank goodness Senior 1 Chinese was taught by Mr.Lee. Bless his soul! At least, it's not that HORRIBLE to have to study from scratch but just do revision as he taught it quite well that it left impressions. Cross my fingers that I don't flunk this time. Fingers crossed.

Biology Test, Thursday, on Chapter 22 Microorganism. Part 1, Virus. And The Five-Kingdom Classification System thingy magicky.

English Literature Test on Friday. Stupid ANIMAL FARM!! Chapter 3 and 4. I've yet to do the summary for these two chapters and also the questions.

Perhaps, come October, I'd be more of a loony than I already am..



















So, yea. Those of you that I adore to bits, it helps to be CRAZY! I'd need all the SUPPORT I can get! Yeap, officially, NUTS.

Smile

Smile. Connie Talbot, a British little girl, child prodigy sang this. Inspirational.

Smile..
Though your heart is aching
Smile..
Even though it's breaking,
When there are clouds in the sky,
You'll get byIf you smile
Through your fears and sorrow, smile
And maybe tomorrow,
You'll see the sun come shining through for you.

Light up your face with gladness,
Hide every trace of sadness,
Although a tear may be ever so near,
That's the time you must keep on trying..

Smile..
What's the use of crying,
You'll find that life is still worhwhile,
If you just smile.


Found!!

It was once "lost".

But now, it's found!

Yes! Wendy took it home on Saturday! (Bless her soul!) Apparently, as she puts it, I left it at her desk, (she's sitting next to me,our desks are connected, primary school style, see) as I was rushing off to Leo. I was pratically overjoyed! I was like "OMG! *squeals squeals squeals* (I normally don't squeal. But I was so oblivious at my own joy. hehe. Was told it was infectious as Wendy was grinning ear to ear and told me that once I calmed down) She gave it back to me yesterday after the talk in the Auditorium during first period where I sat alone and was worrying/trying to keep awake the whole time.

I'm glad. Really.

Thank you for being listening ears all! And thank you, Abba. You must be chuckling at your absent-minded daughter who doubts you much. *sheepish*

Saturday, Sunday

On a lighter note.

Saturday morning - school.

My Saturday night was actually not bad, except for the whole realization that dawn a few hours too slow that I lost my purse. Went out with my parents just to get out of my brother's way, he was in a bad mood and didn't want to tick him further as my patience is wearing thin lately. Went to The Spring with my parents. Grocery shopping! (I love it, really, I do) Mummy ragged on how I dressed. Okay, I know she cares for me, but please, I'm not in the greatest mood to look great, not that I ever do. So, jeans, faded tee that was hers, flip flops. So sue me. Sorry mummy. I just need some space that's why I shut up when you were on my case, didn't want to fuel things, I care, but I dare not go loud on you. Went off to MPH alone, bookworm heaven!

Met up with Therese to buy a gift for Alex who turn 18th on the 10th of April. Crazy girl laughed at me when I texted her telling her that I was at the "Self-Help" section of MPH. Sweat. We had a few laughs (loud ones, I believe) over this fortune-telling book. So funny. Ended up buying chocolates for Alex. Failed to find any boxers at all from body glove, darn! It's always fun to go out with her. She laughs at absolutely anything and tells really LAME LAME jokes. Went to faceshop to get nail polish, again. hehe. She bought for herself since I was cash-less. I ended up being rude and painted my left hand bubblegum pink. (Angel & Brain, you should see my nails!!)

Helped daddy chose coffee beans in Starbucks and he's happy. Lol. Got home and played games from my cell. Thinking. And those DREAMS came when I fell asleep. Driving dreams too. Ah wells. Intense ones.

Today, I was a BUM. I only revised a portion of my Biology for this test on Virus & Bacteria. Sighs. Stupid me. Ended up watching two movies that I never watched after buying them, Disturbia and Pathfinder. (Yea, so old ones) Loved Disturbia. And I fast-forwarded some parts in Pathfinder, too draggy. Disturbia makes me paranoid. And some scenes were like so "BOO!" lol.

I officially need to say this. SHIA is HOT!! omg. I loved him since his Even Stevens days. hehe.

Syoknya

I stumbled on my reading today during mass. Occupied brain. Too much thoughts. Oh wells. I said "A reading from the second letter from St.PAUL. WTF. It's St.Peter. Good thing I didn't swear! The mic was near my lips. Had the whole pew to myself. So yea. Was thinking, and I played a game on my cell to keep awake. heh. Oh, wore a skirt to do reading. Been told, "psst, didn't know you had a great bum" I was like "huh?" then inside me I was like "wth.." Dinner at Sister's. Cantonese Kueh Tiaw again. Full, but I finished it all, okay? I love my teh c peng special.

So now, bumming online, again.

Lost

It's lost, I think.





No. It really is, I believe.

For the umpteenth time tonight, I'd repeat myself again. Repeat the story of "why is it lost?" I couldn't find my purse when I was getting ready to go out with my parents yesterday. I didn't panic at first. But then, when I searched again and couldn't find it and I was like a madwoman, hurling around in my room, swearing under my breath. Chanting, oh no, oh no. It's gone, I think. I believe I left it in school during Leo. Sobs.

My I.C. My Lousy L license. My student I.D. My money.. My things.

Stupid JOVINA!

Hopefully someone has it. BLESS YOUR SOUL whoever you are..

I want it back!!

Another Week, gone.

One week gone again.

Closer to that dreaded month, OCTOBER.

Got my monthly report card on Monday. Mediorce lousy grades. I failed Chemistry! Shit. I got a B last month, but now, it's a bloody D. Disappointed. Maths was worse, getting worse. Physics only 45. Chinese is so BAD too. Don't fret, I didn't cry over it, because I can't. Sighs. I failed I.T, not suprised because it's practically BLANK. Only subjects that were alright was BM, 84. Geography, 82. English, 91. English Lit, 89. Oh wells.

About the Scrabble Challenge last week on Saturday, I didn't win, also. Was at the same table with Therese and Christian. He started with a word - hone. And the tiles all three of us got was "UGLY", consonants and more consonants. My score was 130, after deduction of points for leftover tiles. Therese got 135, I can't remember Christian's. The score keeper was this junior 3 kiddo, so funny. Lol. In the end, it was fun as the three of us were like man, let's share tiles and come up with words together. hahaha. FUN.

The English Speech Competition was alright. I did my script last minute, entitled "Two Worlds, Same World". (Pamela's sister liked it. She was one of the judges.) Might post it in the next post. I got first. (hehe) For the Seniors'. My class did pretty well. We got the 1st, 2nd and 3rd! Jew Chung took 2nd, Brenner took 3rd. Go SS3B '08! We did well during the Chinese one too. 1st by Jew Chung, then Jia Ying got 3rd and 4th by Wendy!

Oh, during assembly on Monday. We, seniors had to attend this talk by a lady from West Malaysia. The talk is basically about learning to love life. A sad tragedy that went right. Might share about it soon enough. I was .. touched. The title of her talk - Huo Zhe Zhen Hao! - roughly translated, Living's Great! Inspriational sums how the talk is. Organized by I-youth from West Malaysia, who last year conducted a Anti-drugs talk at our school that was equally GREAT!

School is basically the centre of my life so far. I revolve around it day in day out. Homework. Revision. Copying notes missed. Studying. Trying to study. Math tuition. Remedial tuititon with Mr.Lee. Extra lessons in school. School activities. My last year.

The next post, about the week, spotlight away from school. =)

Swam!

I..

SWIM!
SWAM!
SWUM!

Syoknya

And. I'm OVERJOYED! HAPPY. GLAD GLAD GLAD! OVER THE MOON AND BACK! Wheeeee~

Before any of you start thinking did I lose my marbles or something, Let me just explain. Finally, FINALLY, went swimming today after endless cravings of wanting to swim, endless whining to myself and my softpets and occasionally the few who listen. (hehe) and dreams of underwater life, I FINALLY SWAM today!! At KGS. With Ah Nee, Greg, Jiang Chee, Pamela and Therese. Oh, Ann as well. (She didn't swim though. Long story.)

Initially, with high hopes to swim, and overjoyed just looking at the blue blue pool, we (Therese, Chee and I) went to the pool, only to be told that it'd be CLOSED for cleaning until after 12. We were so disappointed! And, yes, swearing a bit. We were so determined to swim that we ended up staying there until it was noon. While waiting for time to pass by (agonizingly slow, it seems) we were at the badminton courts where initially Ah Nee, Pam, Greg and Chee was. I played badminton for really long, and have sore muscles and a bruised palm to proof the long crazy hours I played. Therese, Ann and Chee went to eat first. I played badminton like a madwoman. *grins sheepishly* Can't blame me, it has been awhile since I last played and Greg is a good player. Smack the shuttlecock like there was no tomorrow. Lol! Played Scrabble too! When the clock struck 12, we, crazy loons went SWIMMING!

I'm OVER THE MOON. It was glorious to feel the cool water (chlorinated) against my skin and the sun, warm at the same time albeit it was high in the sky at that hour. The silky smooth waters, oo, just thinking about it makes me bubbly! Chee brought this blown up dolphin that's so uber cute. We, thinking that we're tiny tots or something ALL (yes, all of us) attempted to get up and float on it, only to tip into the water like fools. hahahaha. Even so, I loved every CAREFREE minute of it! It was relaxing. Great great fun! Love them, love it all. Chee has the photos. So yeap. Oh, we showered at the golfer's showers. Luxurious showering, hahaha.

Oh. Unlucky me was HIT in the face (not entirely) by Therese with a badminton racket just as she was about to serve or was it when she got the shuttlecock? Can't remember. Anyways, my left brow is bruised and swollen now. (Oh, the sight of it is not hideous or disfiguring, if you're wondering.) I teared up out of pure reflexes. Damn, it hurt. DOWNRIGHT HURT. Ah wells, I'm a hazard to myself.

Ended up eating in town at Pizza Hut. Full. Headed to tuition after being at home for awhile. Tuition's just tuition, lol. Got home, washed my clothes. Had yummy guavas. No, I didn't eat dinner, too full. Oh, by the way, I'm currently ADDICTED to the game I "bluetoothed" from Andy's cell. Animal Land!! (hehe, will post about it tomorrow?) Played a game of Scrabble with mummy just now. She's a pro.. as always.

For now, I'd best hit the sacks. (I'm SORE all over! And, SUNBURNT, for that matter, bleh! And the brow throbs time to time, it's giving me a headache) Scrabble competition tomorrow! I don't want to lose to Amy!! (Kiasu! Amy's nice, it's just I tend to get competitive. She's a rival, good one of course.) Toodles!



Time to for me to spread my fins! *grins*

About The Week, So Far

Been intending to blog all this week, happens that I'd have something up and can't find the time to actually do so. I tend to take some time to draft it out. Actually, it's more of taking time to get online and actually post anything. Thanks to my horrid connection here. The myriad times it disconnects my MSN is enough to drive me up the wall.

This week (so far) at school was alright. Well, things worth posting up are just now, not really that important, lol. Because, I don't really want to give a blow by blow account on everything since Monday. It'd be too tedious. Then again, maybe a few highlights? On Monday, it was the Seniors who have to attend assembly. Okay, assembly was never a favourite for me. I'm either too sleepy or just drifting away. Else, listen to Therese or Fang Joo talking to me. Assembly was predictable, as usual. If it's too nosiy, the deans and teachers won't be too glad and would go on lecturing all of us.

Anyways, my batch were given money for our academic performance in SPM 2007. Accordingly, we were the best year so far. With unexpectedly good results as most teachers thought my batch were well, too playful and what not. Amy got really good results (Not surprised) and a few others, can't really remember who did. About 48 of us, I think? I got awarded thirty ringgit for my mediorce results. Yes, finally, I'm coming clean to admit, I only got a measly number of 3As and everything in between except failing. (Need I say more?) I feel well, embarrassed, even guilty for accepting it. Perhaps it's a small sum to some, but to me, it's still quite alot. I feel bad for accepting it because I believe I performed badly and just don't deserve it. Mr.Chou, I'm really sorry for accepting your money. I didn't do well, yet I was awarded it, I don't think I deserve it, to compensate I'd do my very very best in October. I promise.

This is a closeup. And yes, that's my chinese name.

What was in it, initially. Hehe. Had to collect our money.


Had tests on Tuesday and Wednesday. Bm and Chemistry on Tuesday. Forgot what was on Wednesday. See, my brain fails me at times. I think it was Chinese. Extra lessons in the afternoon on Monday, Chemistry. Ms. Lee's so dedicated, HANDS DOWN! Hope I won't disappoint her in October. Tuesday was Maths'. Didn't go for extra remedial that Mr. Lee insists I go on Tuesday night, had drama practice and I didn't want to let them down, so yea.. Guess it's alright if people critisize me for not prioritizing my affairs. Oh, before I forget! There's something I wanted to say. The school banned us wearing sweaters/jackets etc. Ridiculous, no? Then again, I'd shut up for now. Will talk about it, and elaborate further.. soon.

Drama practices on Monday and Tuesday nights. We've been working hard on our mime. Three cheers for the younger ones in my group! So proud of everyone of them! They are so co-operative and I know I may be so constant and insistent on the details I want. Michelle helped of course. And Karen LiJong and Sheryl are awesome!! I love you all of every single effort! I'm so excited and AMBITIOUS that we finish the whole choreography and fluent with it, hopefully by next practice on Monday!

Went to see Therese drive on Thursday. Not bad driver! Too bad, she didn't pass. Oh wells. I've been so unfortunate, okay? Orange hurt my baby toe by somewhat pressing his chair on it while fooling around. Sighs. Oh wellls. Lazy to remember now.
