Today I woke up at around 6.30am. Quickly had a shower and changed to my school uniform and off I went to school for my Malay Essay Writing Workshop. I thought that I was late because we were supposed to be in school at 7.45am. But, I was suprised to know that I was the first few people to reach school. Hahaha. Then, went to sit with Alif, Dayna and Joey at the benches near the canteen there. Talked and talked. As time past by, more people came. So, I and Alif went to sit with the others near the carpark there. Waited for Mr Supandi for quite a long time. Then, when he came, the bus was missing. There were about 3 buses there, but none were for us. Haha. So, one kind driver brought us to Bukit Batok Sec where the workshop was held. Saw other schools there. Then, I saw this teacher who looked like Ugly Betty and said out loud "Ehh, Ugly Betty siol!" Hahaha. Later, we went to the hall. It was big, especially the stage. Intro by this one student from PJC I think, then, the workshop was officially 'opened' with us splitting into 3 groups. I was in the 'yellow' group. First session was the argumentative writing by our very own Mr Supandi. Haha. Listened, ate, cracked jokes...bla bla bla. Then, next was about narrative writing by a teacher from St. Patricks. Next was about formal letter writing by teachers from Teck Whye Sec. Then, we had our lunch break. The 'yellow' group was the only group which were in the canteen having our lunch because the other groups were slow. Hahaha. Then, we had debrief, and we went to our separate ways. Some of us, who were Ashri, Alif, Asyraf (thats me!), Zharif, Qistina, Farah, Ramizah, Nabilah and Ira, then decided to go somewhere to eat, but we don't know where. So we try to make a decision while walking to a bus-stop. Took 941 to WM. Walked very slowly because we still hadn't planned where to go. Hahaha. Very funny leh. Cuz we played 'black&white' just to pick a food outlet to eat. We decided to go KFC, but then, it was too crowded. So, its back to square one. Hahaha! Then, after much thinking, we headed down to Sweet Talk to buy bubble tea of course. Haha. In the end, all of us bought one, except for Nab, and we went to this area outside KFC and sat there, drinking our bubble tea. Bubble Tea Gang? Just like what Farah described us? Hahaha. We looked like losers sitting there and at the same time, suntanning. Hahaha. Yeah it was hot. Then, at around 2pm like that, we went to our separate ways again. Took 187 with Ashri and home-ed.

Btw, I'm abit bored now, thats why I elaborated most of the things I did today. Hahahaha. Ok byebye :D

Yo peeps! This week has been stressful...very stressful. Hahaha. Well, ytd, we had a suprise e-maths test thanks to mr venkat...hahaha! Then the next 2 lessons, we had Bio SPA. It was very easy. I think I can get high marks for this. I can even get full marks lor. But my careless mistake denied me the full marks. I forgot to put my answer as 3 significant figures! Haiz...but nvm. Loss one mark only wad. Then, after recess, we had physics test. I can do everything except for the calculations. And it costs me nearly half of the test max mark leh. Mr Ow never teach us properly how to apply the different formulaes. Haiz. A1 gone leh. But...but, today, we got back our bio test. And I got 26/30!!! Woooo! So happy ah. Cuz my previous bio test is way below expectation. Hahaha. And oh ya, today, we did our geog test too. I have confidence that I can pass, but not really high marks lah. Anyways, tmr, ncc training cancelled. So, maybe Im gonna spend the time studying. Maybe, maybe not...cuz I might play soccer too. Hahaha. Ok thats all. Bye.

WorldMathsDay09! Woo! I played a few rounds of it. And I managed to get 1st a number of times. Yay! Hahaha. Got some people from countries like China and Turkey and also HongKong...they very 'gay' sia. They score damn high ah, sumtimes ard 46, while my highest score is only 35. Haha. But its only addition, subtraction, division and multiplication. So its just basic questions lah. Hmm, anyways, school life has been the same. Tests after tests after tests...homeworks after homeworks after homeworks. Haizzzz...today, we just did our a-maths tests. It was ok ah but I still think the previous test was easier. Tmr, we will be having physics test...and BIO SPA! Wooo...hahaha. So tired leh...I need a break! Oh ya...talking about breaks, the one week March hols will NOT be hols to me...and to us all. Its because, some of us got kayaking star 2, which I will be participating in, and then, got NCC annual camp, then got tons & tons of homeworks, and lastly, surely got hols project one...zzzzz. Even hols is against us. Lol xD. Ok, back to studying! =D

Ytd, we had bio test. It was ok...not too hard, not too easy also. I hope I can pass it with flying colours. Then, we had VE. Guess what? I'm expected to get 'Data Administration Manager' as my career...with a starting salary of $6116!!! Lol! But I don't think that its accurate enough because I didn't really do it properly. Hehe. Then, it was english lesson after recess. Got back our compo test. And I got 20/30. Woo! But I am one mark shy of getting an A2. Haiz. Nvm haha. Then, went for friday prayers. Me and alif kept on making crap jokes and we kept on laughing at our own jokes. Haha. After that, reached school and went for malay tutorial. Not many people went. We did 5 cloze passages if I'm not wrong. Again, me and alif kept laughing and laughing while cracking jokes. Lol. Until my stomach pain sia. Then, the 2 of us were the only ones left in the class because the rest had finished it. Then, we went to hall and met up with some of the 4jade ppl there. Went to concourse and then, we played badminton. Haha. My other friends were busily doing their duties for ncc while I'm at the concourse playing badminton. Hahaha. Then, mengtuck, chinguan, norman and even kok jiang joined us. Hahaha. After that, I went back to outside ncc admin room there and instructed all the cadets to split into groups of 7 and we played soccer. I used this chance to spot those talented ones to be selected for the inter-sch NCC soccer competition. Hehe. It was fun and hilarious to see them play because first of all, the field was slippery and muddy. I played once and my shirt was muddy. Lol. And some ppl kept on slipping here and there. Hahaha. Second, was that its a 7-a-side match in a small field. So, its overcrowded. And we played like kids ah. You'll see one big group of players surrounding the ball and kicking it. Hahahaha. Ok ok. Then, I managed to choose 18 players if I'm not wrong. Haha. Went home. Slack. Now, also slacking. Haha.

It has been raining these few days. No soccer!!! NOOOOO....haiz. Nvm. Haha. Anyways, we had gotten back our a-maths test. I got 22.5/30. Disappointed sey. I know I can score way better than that. And I didn't do qn 6 which was easy and costs 7 marks I think. I should have done that qn lor. Wasted sia. And, just now, we also got back our physics test. I scored 23/25. Woo!!! But that 1 mark that I lost is totally careless ah. While the other was a normal mistake. We also had chem SPA ytd. I did everything correctly and properly except...EXCEPT FOR THE MASS!!! Because of that, I got my percentage wrong too. Wanna know wad really happened? My equation was: NaOH + HCl -> H20 + NaCl. Its correct. But when I want to find out the mass, I used NaCl's molar mass instead of NaOH's molar mass. Argh! I looked at the wrong one sia. This is the most careless mistake I had ever made. Haizzzz...but nvm, got error carry forward mah. So its ok lah. Hehe. I think that's about all lah. Ehh..oh ya, the inter-school NCC soccer competition will be held but dunno when and...I'm the captain! Lols. Hope my fellow team-mates do well for this competition. Hahaha. And to 4opal-ians, good luck for your bio (3 chapters) test. Hehe. Ok I wanna study bio liao. Bye-bye...^^

Today, in the morning, 'O' level candidates had to check and amend some things on our verification slips. When I took mine, I was totally shocked to see the exam fees - $423. Sooo expensive seyyy...even PSLE wasn't like that expensive ah. Hahaha.

Anyways, after that, all the lessons were normal. Just that the peer-tutoring for today was cancelled due to the oral assessments we had. It doesn't seem to be an oral at all lah. because the assessor, who was Ms Au, asked me questions just like in a compre. Haha. So it was supposed to be easy, but I did it below expectations. Haha.

Then, after that, some of us went back to class. I, wei lian and chin guan played soccer as normal at our corridor. Melvin was there too. Then, Mr Boh saw us from the 3rd storey near MRLC. He whistled using the whistles of course, and told us to stop playing. We straight away went back to our class. For about 10mins or so, we noticed that he was still there near the MRLC 'watching' us. Lol. Then, out of nowhere, he appeared at the front door of our class and said...

Mr Boh: I don't want to see anyone playing at MY corridor!!! If you think that you are so good in soccer, go to the soccer court over there!!! *points towards the 'puddle-filled' soccer court cuz it rained heavily*

Us: *Did our own things and keeping quiet and trying not to look at his face*

Mr Boh: If I see you playing soccer again, I'll puncture that ball in front of your very eyes!!! *and he walked away*

Us: *Laughing*

At that point of time, I was thinking how he was going to puncture that ball if he does it...use his eye power ah? Hahaha...ok ok. Anyways, after that, went to bpp to buy something, then went home. Now, slacking.....hehe.

Wake up, school, peer-tutoring, soccer, went home, study, sleep. That's my everyday routine, except for weekends of course. Boring eh? Yeah, nowadays, I have been going home late, sometimes until 8pm, especially on fridays. And I have a habit of playing soccer everyday after peer-tutoring. Even soccer at our corridor in between lessons. 4opal? Or 4diamond? Hahaha...yeah, my class now is obsessed with soccer. About 90% of 4opal's 28 boys play soccer. Haha. Some more our class is located at the 4th floor and that beside us is a com lab, and not another class. So we could play soccer at the corridor. Hahaha. And the reason why I played soccer everyday after peer-tutoring is that if I go home instead of staying back to play soccer, I would be bored to death because there's no one to talk to. Haha.

Anyways, regarding about my studies, I have made little improvements on my studies, especially chemistry. 32/50 for redox + air? I know that I can do way better than that. My e-maths is still consistent. Got 30/30 for length and area of arc sector. My a-maths, I did the test with a max of 38 when the paper is out of 30 because there's a number of questions to choose from, which I did most of them apparently. Hahaha. If I can't score full marks for a-maths, I dunno what will happen to me sia. My english compo quite ok lah. My malay test - I failed it. Hahaha. Wasn't interested on it so I just did anyhow. Haha. And my physics test...I lost 1 precious mark. Sooo...no full marks already. Haiz. Nvm. Its just class tests, so its ok.

Btw, next wed got chem SPA. Hope I can ace it. Got english compre test on monday and bio test on hormones, nervous system and human eye on wed. 3 chapters leh! So, I better be reading and memorising the key words now. Hehe. Ok bye bye. =DDD

Lonely.

That's the only word to describe me now. Yeah. My bro & sis had left s'pore early ytd morn at ard 1am. That was also why my parents and I didn't attend the meet-the-parents session last friday. My mum even cried ytd when she realised how quiet it is in our 2-storey massionette. Haha. That's a funny one, because she used to do that after any 1 of her children leaves s'pore or leaves home for a number of months or years. For me, I'm used to this kind of situation. Haha. Cuz I've experienced it since 2002, when my 2nd sis left s'pore for tasmania to study in a uni. So yeah. Haha.

Anyways, I had fully recovered from fever and headache since last wednesday, while I'm still having coughs, but not so serious as before. So yeah, that's good.

About my studies, my comb. humans still suck. Haha. I love maths more than anything (other subjects lah). Haha.

And, we got this target setting thing which were taken from our PLSE aggregates. My targets: 1 A1, 3 A2, 4 B3. Haha. Its possible but I aiming to get 4 A1 if can...and those subjects are E.Maths, A.Maths, Malay and Physics. Hope I can achieve these. Hehe. Ok, now I wanna revise my A.Maths for tmr's test. Gdbye ppl! =D

6 February 2009

Had x-country. My legs were still quite weak because we had our x-country practice on tuesday. But luckily, I've brought along my external pain relieving spray. So yeah, it helped me a lot. I was kinda shocked that I could actually jog all the way for 1 and a 1/2 rounds non-stop. And I spent the last half walking and sprinting. Well, for the first round, I was in 55th place. Amazing right? Haha. But, because of my strong, never-say-die mentality (chey...haha), I managed to get into 24th place in the end. But, of course lah I didn't win anything, because only the top 20 of every level were prize-winners. So yeah, I was abit unlucky though...only 4 people left to beat, which I didn't. Hahaha. But before all the prize presentation, we had this part where some of the teachers had to pass around the olympic torch and then Mr Wong will have to light up the 'flame bowl'. It was funny because there was this part where Mr Siva was caught on camera digging his nose. We laughed like idiots sey. Haha. After the 'flame bowl' was lit up, we celebrated like as if we had won something really big, like getting 1st place in the olympic medal tally. Hahaha. Then, it was raining again after the x-country. Went home...

7 February 2009

Went to have dinner in Grand Hyatt hotel. It was my dad's company dinner reunion, something like that. But my dad is a self-employed person, so he mostly employ our cousins. So yeah, its more like ANOTHER cousins' gathering. Haha. The food was superb, but I ate lesser than usual. Don't know why though. Instead, I ended up drinking more. One teh tarik, one mixed fruit juice (watermelon & apple) and one chocolate milkshake. It was such a joy drinking these. Haha. And...the choc milkshake is far nicer than the one in mac. Serious. Lol. Ok ok...after the dinner, we took pics and all, and we dismissed ourselves. I and my siblings went up to the hotel room which we went to overnight. Hehe. The room is very beautifully lit-up, very comfortable and nice to live in. But, look through the window, and you'll see construction sites. Haiz. Everywhere sure got construction one. Spoil ah. Haha. Then, I watched soccer until 3.30am and slept...

8 February 2009

...I woke up feeling rather sick and drowsy. I went home and slept, and woke up cuz got tuition, and then, slept again. Haha. Now, I got fever liao. Haha. Might not go to school tmr. Haiz...ok ppl, nites.

Ok I know I haven't update this blog for more than a week. Hehe. So here it goes...my long long post.....

31 January 2009

Went to religious class in the morning, then went to JE library to teach ulin maths. Then, from there, took cab to Bugis mrt station to meet up with my cousins and siblings for the cousins' gathering. I was 5 mins late. Hehe. But when I reached there, I didn't see them. That's when I realised that they were at the other side of the exit. Haha. So I went there through the underground tunnel. Met my bro, 3rd sis, abg. mamat, kak hajjar and syukri. We then walked to the Zac's Middle-Eastern & Mediterranean Cuisines Buffet for our dinner which we had planned. The place was crowded. So, the manager of the restaurant told us to come back after our prayers which starts around 7.15pm+ like that and that he would give my bro a call if there's available seats for us. But after all that, my bro received no calls. So yeah, the manager told us to wait for a few minutes, which we felt like a few hours. Haha. Cuz I noticed that most of the people eating there were not gonna leave that place at all. Yeah haha. So, after that, finally, a group left the place, and its our turn to sit and eat. Haha. There were now 11 of us, including kak mariam, my 2nd sis and her husband, raidah and nadirah. Then, we started to feast. Hehe. I took a lot of food although I don't know what those were. But, it was nice to eat, just that there don't have a large variety of food available there. Then, after eat, drink and talk talk talk, we left the place with overflowing stomaches. Haha. Just kidding. Hahaha. We walked to Bugis Junction to catch a movie, but in the end, we didn't. So, we made the decision to go to marina square to bowl, but didn't. Then, we thought of going to marina barrage, which we didn't. Lol. In the end, we took the mrt and off we go on our separate ways to go home. But I, my bro and my 3rd sis went to send Nadirah home first, who lives in Hougang. Then, we took cab home. And...sleep...haha.

1 February 2009

After school, we went to the Bishan Home for the Intellectually Disabled. Reached there at 2pm. Went inside the conference room. Had our briefing there. Then, at 2.30pm, we went up to the second floor and into the MPH. There were many people inside there. Some of them walked towards us, wanting to shake our hands. We were suprised and actually quite afraid meeting them. Don't know why though. Haha. Then, got this 1 guy, who look like gangster, walk like one and even look like one. Haha. He walked towards us, shook our hands and took 2 balls from us and started kicking it. He was very hyperactive lor. Haha. He has strong legs too. Haha. But seriously ah, he's very hyperactive, run here, run there...haha. Then, got 1 group of people sitting in 1 corner doing the colouring, while some played with the ball. And there's this old guy kept singing along with the music played in the radio. It was some CNY songs. And got another guy who purposely threw the ball at the 'singing guy's' face and he scolded vulgarity. We were laughing sia. Haha. And there's this guy who kept on banging his head on the window. Emo sia. Haha. After all that, we went outside the MPH to do colouring. They started doing the colouring while we just 'guide' them through. I even thought this one guy how to read and write alphabets. I know Im a good guy. Hahaha. Soon, it was all over, and we had our debrief before we left the place. So yeah, we really enjoyed the whole thing and we felt that time flew very fast at that point of time...yeah, very fast...

2 February 2009

Nothing much...

3 February 2009

Assembly was about the NZ trip pp slide and cyber-wellness. Then, was PE. Since we not enough time because of the assembly which took a few minutes of our PE lesson, we only had to run 1 round around the school area. Then, played soccer. After that was maths lesson. Boring as normal. Haha. Then, I told abel that I was sick, so he brought me to the DM room to get my green form. Then, after recess, I went home. Otw home, I was in the bus near bpp there. Then, I heard a woman scolding someone behind me. I found out that she, a young mum, was scolding her son, who seems to be a kindergarten kid. She was shouting at him and intentionally kept pushing him away like as if he's her friend like that. I can tell from his face that he was really depressed, but he didn't cry. So yeah, they alighted the bus, and her son was like trying to catch up with her mum, but she kept pushing him away and walking at a fast pace. The rest inside the bus including me were just looking at them. I pity her son a lot lah and I was really very disappointed with the way a mum treats a son. Can't believe it sey. Anyways, after that, was nth much.

4 February 2009

Nth much...except that after peer-tutoring, I and Ying Hao were playing in the rain, running here and there. Haha. Long time never play in the rain sia. Fun eh. Haha.

5 February 2009

Had temperature check-up. I had my thermometer with me. It can still function (got the beep sound), but the digital screen wasn't working. So yeah, I pretended that it can still be used. I put it under my tongue, wait for 1 min and pretended to see that it does have a reading. Haha. After that, was physics. We did corrections for our practical the day before. Then, was MT. Some people brought laser pointers and someone actually pointed it at mr supandi's head and he didn't even realise it. Lol. Then was geog. We had our test. After that, ms dewi told me that I need to do my test faster as just now, I was staring at the question paper for 15 mins. That's totally fake ah. 15 mins of staring?!?! Siao kia. Haha. I did stare, but for a few mins only lah, then I started writing. Haha. Today, school ended at 10.20am because our previous sec5 students did well for their 'N' levels. Haha. But, my class had polymer workshop from 10.45am to 1.30pm like that. So, we quickly ate and we went to SP for the workshop. It was fun...very! Haha. Firstly, we had apple pie and coke from Mac. They sponsor lah of cuz. Haha. Then, we were divided into 2 grps. My grp went to see how hangers were made from polymer. We each had a hanger for free. Hehehe. Then, we went to see how plastic food wrappers were made, followed by bottles, and then, we went to see how nylon was made. We made it too. It was interesting. Then, we made those fridge magnets made of MEKP (Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide). Long name isn't it? Hahaha. Then, we went home 'full-handed'. Haha. Now, I wanna eat. Hehe. Byes. =D
