The Final 8 minutes of 2008


Well, I'd say its been an interesting year,
From when I entered the school, I changed a WHOLE LOT.
Learned pretty much too.
I'd say 2009 is a new year.
Happy or not? I guess I choose the latter.

But well, I always look on the brightside of life :)

Deadified

ACS made me a wackier person, IB made me a sadder person.
Nullified, I am per normal.
I think..

Theres so many things to do, so many expectations to meet,
so many things to settle WAHHHHHHH!

Oh MAN

Terrible terrible.
Terrible.

AMAZING

Heehee. Its the last week for TLL,
GOSH! I actually survived 7 weeks of 9 to 6 work!
Seriously, I have got to thank the other TLL participants for keeping me sane.
Not that I can get more insane..Hohoho.
Well, it is a bit SAD that I have to start using more of my brains,
and no longer get the spoon feeding during research.

Running has became quite a bit of my worries,
Talked a bit to another crossie and it seems like my foundation for running is done for!
I really didn't expect when I made the choice to put Choir first, this would happen...
My fitness has plummet to the depths of the earth's crust.
I can't sing very well too! And yet, I put quite a bit of mind into it.
Okay, I must admit I don't do ALOT of work ( Thank you VPs!)
Probably the only thing I get is the stress. Mmhmm.

Dead Meat, Dead Beat

WELL! The good side of things are that I FINALLY finished my TLL projects!
Poster, Presentation, DONE!
Yay!
Yet now, its a roller coaster ride in studies.

I have yet to touch a single book from school,
I have yet to touch the chem holiday package,
I have yet to touch TOK
I have yet to read Paddy
I have yet to read Ms Julie (Yet to buy..)
I have yet to re-read the lit texts

I have SO much things to do for Choir.
I have TO RUN. If not, I am a disgrace to myself.

Y6.
UH OH!
:O

Defeated

OKAY! FINE!
I LOSE!
Hahaha.
I'm trying to have a life but apparently, its IMPOSSIBLE.

Yesterday's concert was SHOCKING.
Well, ACS Choir has to work hard.
We can do it! But it takes EVERY SINGLE PERSON'S dedication.

Yes, life-less.
Either than coming home late due to attachement and trying to rush EE or TOK, or even attachment work O_O
my attempts to go out FAILS. xD

Well well well,
that's a jet life.

Nostalgia

Well, I was finding my presentation slides for TLL
(couldn't find it! Means I must go there early tommorow!)
and I accidentally opened something I didn't open for A VERY LONG TIME.

Looking at those files just makes my heart sink,
In a nice way, I look back at those smiling times,
but at the same time, it just screams that its never coming back.

I find it awkward that I am able to laugh at my old plight,
Yet, it is quite queer.

Its quite sad, just very sad,
what I've been through,
and now,
hardly either party open our auricle muscles.

Past
The leaves this summer,
never those leaves that summer.
From the chlorphyll to the lamina,
It is different to me.

The leaves that used to talk,
dance, play, walk, smile.
Gone.

Deomposed, lost to the cold ground.
The leaves regrow, yet,
its not it.
The way it flutters in the wind,
the way it reflects light.
Everything is new,
Cold,
Fake.

One day,
I hope, the old leaves will be taken up by that very tree.
That day, the summer leaves will be the same.
That day, the summer leaves will be the same.

LIPIDS

shit,

im getting fat

EXPERIENTIAL

Ran a half-marathon without running for a month. Not exactly the wisest move. It just felt like the first time I ran 10km. Well, bad timing. I didn't expect much. All I expected was to keep running.

Hmm. Dug in a bin. That's something I never thought I would ever do. Yes, I was finding something. Point is, that thing wasn't even in the bin. Heehee. Won't tell you which hand it was! Anyway, I dumped half a bottle of hand sanitizer on it. It SHOULD be germ free.

YUP!

xD

Hyperactivity

Put me in a building for 9 hours.
In a single room for 3 hours straight nearly everyday.
On one chair.
I don't blame myself for HYPERACTIVITY.

My life has became mundane.

Stuff I look foward to would be LUNCH and HOME.

Others would be free moments where I plonk myself on the couch and read
"The New Yorker" 's Fiction Section.

Luckily I have an AMAZING supervisor.

Ho! Yesterday was rush rush rush!
The day at TLL. 9-6
Singing Rehersals. 6.30-9.15
CANDY EMPIRE :O 9.50-10.00 9
(yes it is so important that it deserves a slot!xD)
Terminal 1 10.10 - 11.20
Taxi 11.30- 11.50
Home 12.00

Busy Fizzy Dizzy!

Sleep...

Today was just exhausting.
BLEH.

But sad in a way that the only thing left through this entire holidays is ee, tok and attachement.

sighs

What in the World is Happening to the WORLD

Mumbai. Why? Why?
Whats with all the carnage?
We have people killing the planet already with all the global warming,
and everyday, we act as though NOTHING is happening.

I can' stand it.
The chaos just irks me.

In some ways, when people say we are civilised,
I doubt it.
We are still uncivilised,
Everyone is killing everyone,
Just that its slowly, quietly and cleverly.

Disgusting.
Competitive.
Shit.

Presently...

Tired. Tired. Tired.
Hahaha.
It came to a point that instead of sleeping NEXT to my supervisor,
my eyelids drooped right infront of him while he was talking to me.
yikes!
I thought the days where i required that hormone is over!

Sheesh. It would REALLY be boring with Choir off-ed for the year.
Gosh!
Going for TLL is like doing ANOTHER EE.
Don't I hate EE's?
Heh

I have yet to read any academically inclined material
Year 6. Uh oh...

And talking to a possible future European citizen doesn't work.
Its sad to the extreme.
Frankly, I should have expected all THIS for this hols!

Isn't it called the monsoon season?
Hahahhahahaha

Work Work...

AW MAN

It was an amazing Friday and Saturday.
I just lost a great number of hours of sleep

It was great to be with the kiddos of Chinese Orchestra
They are just so CUTE
Hahaha.
It sounds paedophilic
Though, with the kids its the same, with the facilitators, its different.

Everything is changing.
AHHHH!

Horrible
Horrible
Horrible
Holidays

THOUGH! I am looking foward to Post Choral Exchange...

Sighs

what a lifestyle.
rountine.

8-9am : Choir
9am-6pm: Research Attachment
6-7pm: Break
7-8pm: Dinner
8pm < : Work.

And I have absolutely hardly anytime to run.

Holidays? I mean, WHAT!?

Sheesh.
And everything is so darn demanding.

I wonder why am I still smiling away
Hahahahha.
:)

Rojak

That's what I feel. like, essentially, mixed. There is the sweet, sour, salty and bitter.
You eat something sweet, you forget about the bitter and you eat something bitter and it stays there till a lot more sweet get you good again.
Bitter-sweet!

Its really a HORROR missing SO MANY choir practices! GOSH!!
I HAVE YET TO LEARN THE SET PIECE.
And I have EE to do because plants don't wait for you!
At the same time Research Attachment is every moment!
TOK!!!
Fizzy Busy

Defining Moments of the Week:

-Interacting more with the other TLL Participants!
-Getting to see HCI and NJC Choir EXCO again at HCI!
-Counting 1797 Pollen Grains
-Playing with the Secondary School Choir
- Finally, seeing the sunshine give a momentary smile today, priceless.

The Summer's Smile
Her cheeks wrinkles like the sun's golden hues,
And though dimple-less,
Its there, I know it,
Like stars in the day.

Ah! Those eyes.
Glowing with passion,
Sparkling with zest.
A mornining glory and its dew.

Hummingbirds sung their happy songs,
everything had gone along.

Yet, the spherical blue-green monster does not wait.
Authmn then Winter.
Elephant hides cover the skies.
What is happening?

I long for Summer's Smile,
though aware of the absence.
It will be there, I know it,
Snow will melt,
Leaves will grow,
and I may never let go.

Jet's Wonder of the World

I WONDER, if its possible to cry till you dehydrate?
Hmmm..

from the top!
hello!
hahaha. its the dawn of a new day :)

Everything restarts. Somebody tripped over the wires!
One day may not be enough to recover but in time to come, I hope I will ;)
Hmm, I really ought to be working hard!

Priorities:
Choir
Attachment
Run
Academics

:)
I should be going to my secondary 4 regime of not using msn on weekdays xD
It should help.

Oh, what wonderful holidays!

creativity PLEASE!
Hahaha. i want to complain!
My jokes should be copyrighted. GOSH!

Deans was messed up real bad due to the rain.
Had a wonderful tea/dinner
Coffee Club Burger and Mudpie
Oh gosh, I shouldn't have talked to them anyway, haha, kinda makes things worse! xD
anywhos, we bumped into mr ho! hahahha
1 in 4million chance

Haha, sometimes,
I wished I stayed only in Cross Country.
sighs.
But Choir, is awesome, most of the times,
the WONDERFUL secondary ones!

sleeping is an essential thing these days,
tired tired very tired.

I'm fine!

And the flower that we're working on!

posh gosh!
the research attachment is pretty cool and fun.
people there are friendly and nice
its a pretty place

my research?
well its on a certain species of flower.
arabidopsis i think.
its really small. trust me

and i will spend most of my time counting the number of mutant types and normal types of pollen grains of these minature flowers. haha.
well, the cool part is really the reason for all the things that pops out from the microscope.
to prepare the slides itself is a herculean task for me.

the only down side of it is that for the only 2 talks i had,
i fell asleep in both.
and also, your eyes and head gets goofy after staring through the microscope for too long a time.

choir choir,
its running well i suppose, not perfect though.
time has to be squeezzzzzzzed

busy,
keeps my mind off things!

xD
After talking to Daniel Ang
Looking at my secondary school friends' life
I figured I don't have A LIFE!

Swimming today made me think
Seventeen should be the prime of your youth right?
You are the Dancing Queen at seventeen.
You have a magazine dedicated to you!
Your age is similar to that of "Lisa" in the "Sound of Music"
You ARE suppose get most of your maturity this year since its "NC16" and "M18".
And the last one,

Seventeen is a prime number ;)

Happy Holidays!

what an awfully tiring day!
woke up with a swollen eyelid.
choir-ed a bit, conc camp-ed, lee kong chian-ed

ah gees, days go by and problems start to add on.
its like this never stopping stream of problems.
i figured that problems are free?
happiness is redeemed through effort!
quite right!
analogy:
you get dirty in the rain, thats a problem! and thats free, getting dirty
then you go home, and have to bath and the bathing foam used is bought through money, earned through effort.

researching was tedious.
type type type.
a truely entertaining moment when my sister and I say a crowd of senior citizens do aerobics at the space outside the library.
joining them for a minute was even more entertaining. xD
though, we ran away quickly, it was fun while it lasted.

tommorow is another late late day.

morning choir
afternoon deans list
night lessons

when can i take a break?
a full break
nice long holiday?
END OF YEAR 6!! xD

i come home sick and tired everyday.

aiya.

ARGH. why do i have deans list clashing with choir?
gosh, i planned out the day so happily and to my HORROR!
Then, i have conc camp for english plopped in the middle of choir, how pissing!

Why can't ANYTHING suit you at all?

BAH!

haha.
how funny when all the not-happy stuff slams you at one go.
you just laugh about your plight!
wahahahaha.

today was food-filled.
its pure abstinence from ALOT of chinese cusine food for the next few days.
mixing around with the hc and nj choir exco was pretty awesome.
their quite a nice bunch.
though it be funny the day it hit them i have ZERO choir background

on the minus side,
the day ended sour.
plodded home to sleep and had horrible dinner.
thai isn't exactly my favourite cusine. call me spoiled but really,
as a person who cook, i think the thais just overuse the spices.

well, it comes to the point of acceptance and going "aiya"

and what i learnt last year from darren koh,
when times get hard, life gets exciting.
my life is VERY exciting.
i love it

procrastination gets you nowhere!

the story of my analysis of prose passage:
did it halfway during conc camp, mr brian ng said we can finish it at home.

cycled home but didn't have mood to do. wrote 2 sentences. DECIDED TO FINISH IT BEFORE DEAN'S LIST

bus-ed to school. lunched. met william to discover, in my horror, that i left my math port at home! (due 5pm that day) Paniced off and on, got it in the end. In the frenzy, wrote 1 parapgraph in 1 and a half hours. DECIDED TO DO IT AT NIGHT

After the class party, went home, EXHAUSTED! DECIDED TO DO IT BEFORE CHOIR

woke up in the morning, ahh! family is chasing me out of the house, okay! DECIDED TO DO IT IN SCHOOL BEFORE CHOIR

cycled to school. and people were there already so talked. DECIDED TO DO AFTER CHOIR

choir ended and lunched. went home. okay lets do it!

discovered that i left the prose passage along with my halfdone work in school. -_-

life is wonderful.

the week has been up and down, in and out.
So I am down for Conc camp for English.
Happy in some ways that I hope it can help me..

Choir choir.
it has been demanding in all ways.
Time, mind, body.

Off and on mood swings.
haha. thats so funny.
I am like an old woman.

oktoberfest was good.
at least its an event where a certain degree of bonding? took place.

on the other side of things,
its been doopsy woopsy,
but then, if i can SMILE it through,
i WIN!

i found a good analogy of it.

its like cancer.
the first time you knew it, you sob hard and grieve
then, the doctor tells you not all hope is lost.
then you start to recover, but in just a wink
you relaspe, yet, effects starts to ebb away again and you recover.
the vicious cycle continues to the point where you have no idea whether to have hope or not.
whether one day, it will end up taking your life.

quite good huh? hahahaha

ouch pain
pain ouch
ouch pain
pain ouch
ouch pain
pain ouch
ouch pain
pain ouch
ouch pain
pain ouch
ouch pain
pain ouch
ouch pain
pain ouch

A Mental Disaster
roaring flames rocketed the farenheit.
thunder, lightning!
cyclones and hurricanes left a trail of destruction.
pain pain PAIN!

hows your headache?

student or elderly?
streaks of greys lined the hair,
and deep, dark rings encircled the sockets.
permanent etch of worry plastered on the matured face,
old...

more caffine, more caffine!

a hacking cough degenerates the weak trachea lining.
wheezing at the slightest exertion of energy.
frail limbs lifts the limp body.

"I must finish before going to the long awaited slumber"

results weren't as bad as i thought?
although, papers were done BADLY
in a way that it puts me in the average
hahaha. i should get pressed down.
thinking too highly of myself at times.

english was just GOSH!
3rd lowest mark in level just isn't sad but humourous.
its an obvious sign of a science student.

ah gees.

i guess the only thing that i feel lousy about is positions.
but i should be grateful in where i stand, and i am.

cheer up!
the sun ain't down yet!

why why why?
its been happy for one day
and its downhill on tuesday

my studies,
teachers have been mopping over exam scripts
going through them.
all it has done was to strike fear and even sorrow
in my educational heart.
maths port. GOSH!
i guess i am not good in maths at all.
ah well.
having to redo isn't at all pleasant.

choir,
its stressful.
people are leaving
there is so many things to settle
and more over, do it WELL
so many things to DO!
to rememeber!
no wonder my temper is getting more and more thin.

jolly what fun!
hahahahhahahaha

boogie-fied!
okay, maybe KBL cleanup wasn't much of a revamp =P
BUT, it is much neater now, MUCH.

funny how i can say that cleaning the room up required blood, sweat and tears.

friday's later half was much better than the earlier.
i guess ceilings are an alternative of clouds.
the amazing short period,
where you wish that time would stop
and last a lifetime.
hohoho.

but then, whats life without complications?

the sunshine was dark at around 12-1 though.
grew brighter, evidently :)
gosh, im starting to become a weatherman

shit
problem is back.
shit shit shit

and i thought it was solved
oh bother!

bah!
my head hurts. I keep sleeping.
gosh, the after effects of absitence from caffine is tormenting.
definitely haven't be productive the last few days.

monday was watching house and flipping through OLD choir pictures.
gosh, how cute our seniors WERE. Haha.

tuesday was much more enjoyable.
morning, was choir spent.
interesting how i spent most of the time pretending to play the songs in the songbank of the keyboard.

the afternoon.
metaphorically,
the sun was up, sunshine was bright and sunny
bask in the brillance of it all.
yeah. loved it.

today was a movie-ing day.
yup, moving. sighs.
fifty first dates. an old one, but pretty.
a walk to remember. touching, very, and sweet, nice.
pretty feministic taste huh?
oestrogen levels are soaring in my plasma. AHHH!
well spent day too, 12-3.

bwahahahaha.
oh exams.
hoho.
english: never good at it, probably never will
chinese: gosh! it was hard. really, this one is sighs..
econs: okay lah..but same thing said in mids, never did well too.
maths: my paper's answer is conc camp material.
chemistry: uh uh, as hard or even harder than mids. which is AHHHHH!
bio: hoho, not that easy subject. okay paper but all the points in? thats the hard part.

all in all,
uh uh.
not a good exam.

i am sad

woke up the morning, tired.
had a phase of emo-cities in school.
booger.
sunshine was bright though.
so sunshine made me happ-ier!
bright bright day till...

i discovered the awesome yes awesome amount of marks i minused.
Firstly, you cant count you with your fingers and thats the first time in a long time,
I know that i minused more than 10 before i got the paper back.
use your toes, also cannot.
use them twice.
thats the amount.
adding on to random mistakes....
my maths has gone down the drain.
has gone.
my good subject.
only good subject.
gone
gone
poooof

meet dumboy jet,
roadsweep with an o level cert.
proud enough to say that i know brooms wear out because of friction.
my muscles are tired because of lactic acid.
my sweat contains chemical NaCl
i can "differentiate" the leaves from the grass.
socialise with the land owners using chinese and english. billingual!
know that i enjoy low tax rates and high transfer payments, benefiting from fiscal policies.
write poems on leaves.

Dew, nice to see you again.
the day springs to a bustle,
yet, all i hear
are the leaves rustle's.


brightside of things huh?
:)

I am a messed up kid.
I am so sick of exams that I cannnot be bothered.
You know? Its scary.
Instead feeling worried, wanting to study, I actually am feeling calm.
Stressed. a little. but not worried.

I cannot even recognise Ammonia being sp3.
I am so useless!
Its good in a sense though.
People will stop thinking that I am smart.
Which is the truth! I am not!

Now, I am just plain. normal. dumb boy.
A simple life lies ahead.
sighs.

exams! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
False hope? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Conc Camp! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

oh am I so tired today.
So very sorry if it freaked anybody out but yes,
when Im tired, I am generally high.
and the bad thing is anything comes out from my mouth.
there is hardly any filter.
bother!

pretty moment today was when buble went "L is for the way you look at me.."
I had to glance up to see freshly bloomed purple coloured flowers from a tree!
Yup, it sounds pretty wussy but thennnn,
the flowers were pretty period.
moreover, the walk home was breezy :)

oh yes, i just bought digestives!
you like them too don't you? ;)

its so darn doodely dang STRESSFUL!
Goodness.
I am dying under that S word.

Just realised the implications of not doing well.
The expectations, Con camp.
EXPECTATIONS!
Thats the most worrying one.
Arghhhhhh.
I am dying dying dying.
Stress Stress Stress.
I even swore for the first time in months.

gosh!

before i was sick:
hershey's
maple syrup

sick:
milo powder

im dead.
sneeze sneeze. sleep sleep.
all the s's yet the one i need is not happening
STUDY!

what a horrid week!
Aside from the short, long destressing moments,
gosh! the lack of sleep!
BAH!

And moreover, I am sick. Argh! Flu Flu Flu.
Just bought a box of disgusting tasting Strepsils from an overfriendly shopkeeper.

Yesterday was enjoyable!

Hypothesis: There is a negative correlation between exams and your well-being.

gosh! I need sleep.
Badly.
I am running on Caffine as fuel.
It is confirmed that I need lots of sleep to survive.

day begun quite boring.
the usuals.
school ended pretty well though :)
happy happy happy!

work!

today! :)

in the tiniest nutshell:

swimming was TIRING
Vanilla again :)
and a beautiful sunset

Ahhhh!

:) Before studying begins

I finished the Clodhoppers!! My goodness! In 24hours.
Abstinence is just not my oomph.
It was gooooood though!

First day of the term was tiring!
Late night due to IOP.
My breakfast got me high though!
Yummy yummy yummy! :D

The only other pretty moment of the day:

Jazz tunes reverberrated within the ears.
Cool, calm surroundings.
The air scented with vallina!
A baker at work!
or if better, a vanilla :) pod tree around the corner :)))

ARGH!
E-rritaing EXAMS!
I having the BLUES.
I cannot do concentrate
I can't seem to do Maths as I used to.

I am dying dying dying.
Studies.

I am prepared to become a road sweeper.
:'(

Oh yes! though one thing I am amused at recently was the ability to finish a tub of icecream.
One stinking TUB!

Better treasured it now,
I don't think I can earn enough to buy that next time considering my future job aspects.

You all are too nice! Making me feel so guilty... :(
I seriously don't think I am so previliged to get all this attention.
bowzers!

Understanding the difficulty to plan things, I REALLY LOVE YOU GUYS!
The EXCO+Mervyn!
I thought the CPA2 thing was so very good already! And although a lunch could follow after,
who knew I had to spoil everything because I was too embarassed. BLEH!
Painted face, wearing a corny hat just is too much to be shameless. at City Hall.

And the EPIC surprise at Goodwood. GOSH!
Coming to my home would just be too far and complicated but the entire thought of it.
Gees!
You guys are lovely!

And everybody's well wishes:
NCC! MSHS! ACS(I)! NYPSCO!
sweet sweet SWEET people!

i fear my exams.
i really do.

my running has regressed.
alot.
today's long run was tiring,
which should not be the case.

although choir is to take a break
stuff is still on my mind.

thank the talk on sunday.
it put my mind off certain things,
some.

though,
i am keeping a smile!
smiley smiley smiley!
la la la la la.

Oh, and a certain sign of stress
when you start talking to ovens,
konkers is near...

i shall try to stop being an emotional tart on my blog.
thanks everyone for the good words :)

and what defined most of yesterday:

Sing tune of to "Singapore Town"

I took a little trip sitting Bus and Train,
to find the choir's Mrs Elaine Wan,
Through Coller Quay and Raffles Place,
Reached Esplanade ,PHEW, not too late.

To give her flowers
for her many hours,
that she spent in teaching us.
To make her happy
and tell her sincerely,
that she should be *clap *clap *clap, more nasty

When I reached there
She didn't pick up her phone.
I was like "OH S**T S**T S**T S**T S**T"
Yet when I went to the info counter
My phone suddenly ring.

To give her flowers
for her many hours,that she spent in teaching us.
To make her happy
and tell her sincerely,
that she should be *clap *clap *clap, more nasty

Finally, I met her
and she was very happy.
But when she left
I stood and ponder
"Now I am stuck here"

To give her flowers
for her many hours,that she spent in teaching us.
To make her happy a
nd tell her sincerely,
that she should be *clap *clap *clap, more nasty





And that was the quintessance of lame

How frustrating it is.
To be unable to tell anyone anything.
To have nobody close enough to confide.
To keep everything to yourself.

Its really awful.
You know.
Really.

Yes, I'm still not be able to sacrifice.
It will just rip my wounded aortic pumps to bits.

Rooftop
We're here again, but different, always, somehow.
Motes of dust ebbs away, everytime. (I think)
It clings to our shoes. A parasite? A dandelion?
Alas, the tiles will be visible, one day.

I'm here again, but different, always, somehow.

ATTENTION! You have been caught by the Happy Police!
You are now surrounded! Put your cheeks up and surrender your frown!
We are not afraid to use our endorhphins!

You were spotted today,25th August 2008 with a teary eye,
and countless acts on Emo-ing and not smiling.

Our 'Unhappy Detector' is able to penetrate through your pseudo image,
All attempts are to be given up in the name of Happy Law!

I, hereby sentence you to a lifetime of smiling,
laughing at cheap thrills
and intenstive counselling by our familiar neighbourhood counseller.

I am sure she will be delighted to help you.

Court Dimissed!

*boing*boing

The waves roll silently up the beach,
retreating with a melodious hiss.
Subtle blends of sweet and salt,
the concoction of the dewy breeze.

The sand, virgin and supple,
painted only the pictures of our dancing feet.
Those pale crystals snuggled up between our toes
as we embellished the beach.

"Sir, Madam, its raining"
And yes it was.
Yet, our movements unbroken,
spelling our hearts out on the surface.

Neither party could comprehend,
only the doves that encircled overhead knew.
Did they speak of bleak or bliss?
Gay or Grief?

Written on their faces,
a smile.
Ah.
Eternity, now.

Dim hues of warm light from the cafe,
rests on the cobbledstone street,
The air, a touch of moisture, a gust of wind.
Faint scent of a cuppa pervades the air,
and just a tinge of the aroma of a cigar.

Drizzle, only felt, not be seen.

The wooden radio gently comes to life.
May I?

The notes linger in the air.
And only with the our eyes as audiences,
we danced all night.

not usual of me?

I woke up today.

Sick and tired of life.

certainly not a NEW phrase in many mouths:
I think I'm messing up my life.

Geez.
My studies have taken a dip.
I cannot do Maths like I used to.
Biology is not at the snap of fingers.
Chemistry is too.
Econs is foreign.
English is GOSH!
Chinese, I just lost the impetus.

Its practically impossible to balance a social and working life.
Seriously.

On the other hand,
Choir has been stressful in ways.
But then, getting the many helping hands just makes me feel so much better.

And,
having the moments where I just tear myself away from school (which is practically my life)
is all so wonderful.blissful.
Stepping away from that busy, hectic world in just a few minutes.
Who wouldn't want that?

Gosh! I think I'm going to mess up the selection test for the research attachment.
My preparation plan was "Just Whack"
I don't think its effective.
Hmm...

Well, it was a great day.
Saturday begin with running at Mount Faber with Cross.
I've got to say its pretty fun going back.
However, its again, tiring. =P

Rained so we rushed back to school much earlier.
Time alone for quite a long time.
Its pretty nice wandering around school on your own, taking your own time doing things.

Enjoyable moments filled the rest of the afternoon.
But, Im afraid its all coming back again.
Not the bad, crappy parts but the good ones.
The happy ones. The smiley ones.
Its less complicated if I keep it as the way it was.
Just don't come crashing down again.
I do not want to let go...

The night was spent in a fail-ed Comm outing.
Small group but ah wells, it had its fun bits!
Though I figured, the comm is breathing Choir at nearly every moment.

Sheesh.

okay.
I am really lost.

fishsticks!

on top of that,
I have to worry about the ccas.
today was apparently quite well.
Came to school and figured oral was postponed!
Scored pretty well for a test i didn't prepare xD
Secured a Gold for NAPFA!!

Then came the afternoon,
Bad news?

wow. 3 days choir filled. SERIOUSLY
Friday. Saturday. Sunday

Friday was really fun fun fun!
Ran to school. Gosh, the latic build up was terrible. As in, it couldn't clear as fast as it used too. Grr.
National Day celebration was great! Time spent with choir was like another reminence of FOA preparations STRESS-LESS. We went up there just to have fun with the crowd :)
In that period of rehersal, it was so much relax and just pure joy.
Pretty serious now, considering the role i have to play but still, I had my fun.

Officially, it has to be the most number of times I looked at the camera lens on 8 August 2008.
Pretty surprised with myself too.xD
After the performance, Y5 post FOA thingy was not bad!
I mean, I didn't have in mind the entire party ra ra thing but a time together was essential and just satisfying enough :)
Left halfway for the interviews at MOE.
I have to admit that I'm pretty weary about my ability to qualify! It was such a short interview! Considering the MOE Pre-U one, it was certainly a short one.
The interviewers, as usual, were nice..

Went back to school.
Met a bunch of kukoos holding MOPS while taking pictures.
Where the kukoos turned out to be the dear y5's who still stayed on.
Hahaha. It was really funny though. The whole idea of them being retards. O_O

Quickly pushed on to talking about Choir.
Stayed and moved to KBL to talk about more prevalent things.
And the Cutey Year 1's, Hadi and Edwin stayed back to clean the KBL!
Those two! We owe them BIG time!

Today was Choir meet again.
Essential since more of the Comm came.
Lunched first and then, supermarketed and met.

Pretty alright meeting but what others said was that is was not fruitful.
I thought it was though xD
Anyhow, tommorow is another meet up but faster one.

Well, many things are being decided for tommorow.
I have to then finish my work, swim, and yah, that.

I wished there were like 24 digits on a analouge watch.
Days will be doubled. having, 730 days in a year!

Whoopee!

i recovered. :)
I guess its after the thinking, dreary feeling for 3 days, i just couldn't take it!
Though, i wake up in the mornings feeling lousy, it gradually becomes better
and acceptance kicks in through the day.
Well, i really got to thank the people that were concerned, really wow. thank you.
and especially choir. I guess a major turning point was when i entered the KBL and saw everybody. A sense of belonging and fun!

Also, I really am sorry for jeopardizing the other party. Didn't expect that the other side had other pressing problems too. How selfish, jet!

Well, now, i really need to get back on work. It really feels so much better with mind mostly on work now.
Oh, and as it may be informed from the lovely crowd of the tagboard, most people probably know the news. Well, I work it my way and see how it goes :)

And i really really love the structure of it. The people presently in the Comm are wonderful.

I suddenly feel really thankful for my life presently.
I back to being smiley.
I got my friends.
I got Choir.

Yet, I NEED results.
FOCUS!

today. was proabably my quietest day in ACS
much of the blast came today. it was pretty painful when you think of both parties together.
till PE, where i amazingly fell asleep in the MPH, i felt much better.
apparently exercise works so it should be a morning run to school tommorow.

i do not doubt that the pain is still there.

on the lighter note though, the class was concerned about the silence.
thank you

we'll see how long i can keep suppressing myself.
i'd be proud of it if i could do so.

before i get to school and be flung into a whirlwind of emotions.
i just have to say this.
slept pretty early last night. Simply lost it.

...

Its sooo secret agent falls for subject.

The Scene
"Please get __ back, ___ probably our only hope"
"Yes. I'll go"

It started out as a mission.
Then, it became disastrous.

I've only got myself to blame.
I read it wrongly and,
Its certainly so selfish if I were to drag people down.

I am not regretting anything.
But, if I had known sooner.
and if I had not been that ignorant.

However, when ignorance was in,
it was the best time ever

Its ironic that its time to avoid the person that cheers you up.

So well, i just hope to get back onto my feet.

So finally,

Thank you for the times of
The Purple Dinosaur,
My Spongy Yellow Friend,
The Hundred Acre Woods Family.

:')

Choir. Never had I expect. Really. I dont know how to express my utter jubilation during the course of all the events.
I did feel this joyous feeling whenever I step into Choir but Thursday and especially Friday, was the most enjoyable period of the entire FOA rehersal period and possibly my happiest period yet in ACS(I) Choir.

Starting on Thursday:
Anticipated the ending of school at yet another early time, 11am.
Met the others and lunch-ed with cheeky Secondary One's at their Charity Cafe.
Submitted to spending 50 cents to a bag of what-seemed-to-be Banana Flavoured Popcorn
No, I didn't finish it myself or else my throat would have died.

Pretty good rehersals with Ms Lim. Sounded well and warmed up. Ended with a tee-wee bit of dancing in the KBL.
Mini-outing with the Choir Dancers! Doug, Jeremiah, Hui Fang and myself head down to Holland Village. Bought hats, Confetti Guns, Balloons, Hairsprays, Beachballs. Plodded down to Coffee Club for dinner.
Geared up for the night!

Morning of FOA! Reached CPA 1 and back to that familiar crowd.
Morning spent rehersing, yet again. Though I was allowed to sit and watch the 1st half. Pretty entertaining!
Afternoon was probably the most fun, smile-filled,laughter-filled, relaxed period of FOA. After lunching, headed back to paint the hats! It was sooo fun! Not only painting the hats but the complete randomness in between.
Lets see, attempts to paint one another, eating gummies! Jeremiah's crazy laughter, Working pretty hard on the hat, making the clearing up of confetti a game.

Its pretty pathetic on my side that I required so much help! I needed help eating the gummies, painting the hat, popping the gun. Oh gosh, what I wimp I am!
Proudly donned the hat and dined! Walked back to change. Pretty fast, warmed up, holding room and out. And then, waited to enter and perform. Noticed that AGAIN I was with the wrong crowd but I just couldn't be bothered!
Spectacular performance. As we sang each song, I really couldn't believe that all that practices in the last few months is just passing away as we hit each note and carry on to the next few songs. You know, if you thought back then, you just didn't want to sing so time need not past..

Second half!
Changed. Revised steps. 6 of us got high infront of a glass panal while revising steps. Soon, it was running down the steps and dancing. Then Tequila-ed, Albert's Perfect Solo, All for One. BAM!

Thanked Mrs Lenie Cho. Rushed out to sing Lord Bless. First time was an Epic failure. Third time was the best. Returned to KBL and photo graphed. What fun we had!
The Congo? Line. Darling Superstar. Taupoks. Hairsprays.
Swensons.
Home.
Slept.
Dreamt.
Woke up.

"Oh bother. FOA is over!"

And to add on..Photos!

ahh! this week has been, tiring. absolutely!
choir is taxing, adding on to IAs that have to be completed, amounting stress of lessons missed!
well, on the fun side, for around 7-8 hours a day, i get to be around the people i really like :)

dancing has never been so very tiring in a sense of keeping the "warped" mindset up!
i really do hope the choir can look so much happier, lively during the performance. i really do..
rehersals today were a tad bad, but well, i guess, its changable.

and on the side of emotions. haha. dont really have the time for it do i?
it still pains and aches a little but ah well, shouldn't let it affect my mood, should i?
ah, we will see how it goes. its just so hard to even LOOK.

here we go!

it hurts.

at least, its out.
Thank you.

I am putting up with quite a bit of stress. This period is really really demanding.

Amazingly, I am still smiley smiley.

Although having some weird mood swings here and there, I think I'm still fine.
Lack of sleep has resulted a little jumpy-ness in my character, a little higher than usual.

So, thats quite a bothersome since it only adds on to the fatigue.

Hee
Hee

Work.

certainly am feeling better now.
thank you to the few people that made what was left of my week brighter!

friday was quite enjoyable.
Besides having the traffic lights to coincide with the pace at which i ran,
choir in the afternoon was really enjoyable.
ALTHOUGH, i cant really learn my part well, but it was still fun.

saturday was quite cool too!
woke at 6.30 to run to school, AGAIN!
had the kbl to myself, and looked through the extensive library of scores.
slowly people came in.
practice was well and fun.
staying back after that wasn't as fun as last week but still, its cosy to be in familiar company :)

what i regret now is sleeping late.
Thursday's late night dragged on to friday and friday's late night accumulated to today.

Oh yes, i fell into a drain today. how bothersome!
and my first reaction? LAUGH! how stupid xD

I hope research at Lee Kong Chian tommorow will be fruitful
if not, I will get skewered by my superivisor on monday.

Oh gosh, i just got news that i have to stay late for choir on tuesday.
wonderful.
wonderful.
wonderful.

my work is going die...

:)
To tell the truth, for this week, my smile has been a fake facade.

Feeling awfully down this week.

My expression makes me happy! momentarily,

why so glum?

:(

okay. exams weren't THAT bad.
Relative to the class its quite good actually. But relative to level. Hoho.

Choir has been fun. As always. Friday started with having a mini Choir gathering to just talk about stuff. Saturday started interestingly with breakfast!
It was a Buaya case but in any case, I didn't want to be one! Amazingly, we weren't late even though we took a tee-wee bit long in munching our hotcakes.

After Choir was GREAT! Haha. It is ALWAYS the times where fun starts when theres slacking on the agenda and you're with friends.
The Y5's that stayed back for the interviews sang and sang and sang!
What utter joy!

Today, hurrr. Getting out of school was a herculean task.

The ceremony was not really good. I suppose they cut down on the formalities for certain reasons but still, I thought some effort should have been made.

Anyway, why stay on past glories? I didn't feel like going in the first place. =P

Im lost at how I should feel now.

Okay. Besides being all paranoid about exams, but the race.
Didn't expect myself to do exceedingly well but didn't expect myself to get last.
The water jump was a real stopper for me!
You know the technique to leap across it but when you're standing on the steeple,
I just jumped with two legs into the water!

Gosh! What an experience! I comfort myself for being able to finish the race even if it
was my very first time doing such a distance and doing the water jump.
Though slow, but AH WELL!

School was pretty much useless for me =P
You see, I get distracted when thinking about the race. And somehow, I felt sleepy.
So with the blend of the snooze bug, HOW DO I CONCENTRATE!
Luckily Econs was off, if not, that would be another lesson gone to waste.

Okay. Tommorow is Armagaddon.
I hope my Chem MCQ gets higher than the disgusting timing I ran.

I dont want to study anymore!

:(

Oh Dear!
Before the week starts, and before the grief comes, lets blog for one last time!

Saturday was a MAJOR slack-off day! In a nutshell,
Training, Lunch, Econs IA ( a little ), Kung Fu Panda, Econs IA ( a little ), Sleep, Dinner, Kung Fu Panda, Econs IA ( a little ), Goodnight!

And its all thanks to the flabby black and white thing, that my productivity level DROPPED.

Sunday was less slack considering that I finished my IA, although it looks weak and bad, I still finished it. BUT STILL...

Breakfast, IA-ed, Lunch, Econs, Dinner with friends, "Evening with Friends", Supper, SLEEP!

Well, met up with Choir to dine and watch ACJC. What I conclude is, they are REALLY good. BUT a little showoff dont you think? Nearly every song was a foreign language, and really resonance-cy, musically thingy.

It just didn't have the jive. :( But on the other hand, they are chorally AWESOME.

Anyhow, a night out with the crowd is made me happy already.

Ah the rain stopped.
Don't you love it?

Pretty random here but I like rains on Sunday mornings, propping myself against the window with a hot cuppa and just watch the pitter patter...

...

Too bad, I'm too Busy..I wonder why,,,,,

hey yo!
Hmm. This week has been quite a positive week for me. Considering that I did not check my Chem MCQ and left my worries for my exams for next week. And also, talking and talking and talking and more talking. And looking forward for the weekends!

(Though, I did fill up a pool so that i can drown in my sorrow.)

Steeple is physically demanding. Really. Very. Very. I'm pretty afraid of Thursday.

Oh yes, apple crumble was good. Though I only got an external critique who was probably too politle to correct anything. xD. Ah well, I thought it was good though, except the fact that I missed out the sugar on the top which was only added later, and the base had far too little cornflakes so the scarce amount had the texture of the stalk of an apple.

Choir was, again, a stress-reliever. The Choreo for All for One is good in a sense that its simple? Desh didn't turned out as bad as i thought. It sounds pretty nice. And then, the Choreo got SOO into me that I started doing it in every setting! Haha. Home, Classroom, Corridors. AHHHH!

Oh yes! And time after choir is the best! The KBL turned into "The Dancefloor". Doing wacky, retarded dance moves and also doing the choreo OVER and OVER and OVER again, for I dont know why! Gosh, luckily there were only a few people there to laugh at our kuku-ness! xD

Its a pity that we ended late though, and Y5's had to go...but on the bright end, nobody from my level saw me being an absolute RETARD. along with douglas, hadi and mervyn.

Plans till next Friday:
Sat: Train
Sun: ACJC Concert
Mon: Mental preparation for Exam results
Tues: Drown in sorrow
Weds: Drown in sorrow
Thurs: Drown in sorrow and steeple
Fri: Drown in absolute sorrrow.

i look like a chicken's backside.

I hate the barber.

i hate the barber

i really hate him.

detest him.

grr.

gr.

Boohoo!

exams, were pretty bad on my side :(
they were just bad. I dont know is it due to the lack of studying, although i felt that i did quite a bit of work, but hey, i felt i couldn't apply it.

Gosh, whats the use of going back to maris stella to get academic prizes?

Ah. Now, theres about a week for me to train for steeplechase. And choir is starting soon. Plus Tok essay, Maths port, econs IA 2 and most importantly, IOP!!!

Gosh, im Uber tired now.
Plans for the day:
Sleep> Cut hair> Run>BAKE!!!!

Who wants a slice of the old apple crumble! I do!

okay. Maybe I'm really bad at running. xD
Hurdling makes you knees hurt.
And if you do it wrongly, you get owned by the coach.
And guess what, only I get owned. WHAT!? Hahaha.
So its a Bad knee + Scolding, What a payoff.
Anyway, I will step on the steeple and not hurdle.
Im going for experience anyway!

On the studying side. TOK is great in a way that it gives me a break.
Its bad in a way that it gives you mental constipation.

Kant, Hume, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle are certainly not dietary fibres to the brain!

Exams. Gosh. How?

WOW + Choir Camp + Track and Field Season = Fail Common Test

Ah well. You see. As I said to some people before. This is pretty much the second last year of our dear youth days. Soon, it will be Army then Uni ( if i can qualify =P). then Work.

Sad ain't it.

So shouldn't we do all these activities before we lose our opportunity to do so?

As on WOW, it was all great fun but theres too much to blog about.
It was great.
THE END

For Choir Camp, it was awesome in all its ways.
Got to talk, know more about the people I already know.
Knew more of the Y5's as in, not only by name and face,
At least now we know a rough direction to move towards.
:)

I have to do work now :(
AND SLEEP.
Although i slept longer then some people but its a total of 8 hours in 2 days.
So imagine how long the others slept.
RETARDS!

Have Fun People!

last day. finally.
another slack slack slack day but i wanted in slack anyway.
Econs was again, really knowledgable.

Through the video screened, i figured that north korea is pretty sick.
and probably the leader is a bit too much of a narcissicist.( if that is the spelling)

The Speaker Award Compeition was pretty boring BUT the cross talk was good if i had listened.

Choir was fun in a sense that I just went there and bum around.

On the other hand, I think I screwed/dead/done for for common tests.
You see, having training on Tues, Thurs and Sat in BOTH afternoon and morning isn't exactly productive for studying.

GOSH! HELP ME!

Luckily choir took a break.

sleepy week!

I blame the usage of the beloved messenger service that deprived my lack of sleep!
Although the chatting was fun but I ought to exercise self-control.

Maths Portfolio has been a bother. The class is quite freaked out by it.
Blame the "kiasu" spirit but everyone seems to be over-killing the poor maths portfolio!
I really do not see that point of the extent of 60 pages.

Thursday was a waste of time and really. What i can conclude about the day is that i went to school to eat. Thats all!

8.00am-4.40pm is constituted with Lessons where we are allowed to do our own things, free periods, recesses and 1 single actual lesson which only comprised of 2 pretty entertaining presentations on Greek's Politics and Society.

Today's was alright.

Finally, the traffic lights are able to coincide with the pace I run so its been a pretty continuous run to school.

Secondary School side was probably skewered for poor attendance for Choir Camp.

Group 4 project work. What i got out of it was obviously more knowledge and hands that reek of vinegar and duck eggs.

Run or Swim tommorow?

Hmmm....
Mortar Pestle and Eggshells.

what the dang is wrong with me?

results are apalling.

WHY?!

It had better be a good reason, mister.

2 posts in 2 days!

well, its a pretty weird day!

ran to school with my sister. her pace was awfully slow!

saw a few people that i knew.

home--> breakfast-ed-->cut hair

gramaphone at holland--> Saw another person i knew!

So the gist is i kept seeing people i know!

holland. bought a book.

witnessed a near tussel between a taxi driver and his 5-secs-passenger.

dinner at the grand's.

home.

plan for tommorow:
tok reflections!
maths
run
chinese
sleep by 11!

okay. its been awhile. lets see.

from monday to wednesday, the days were BAD. AWFUL.
i wondered if my oestrogen was acting up . Temper was a BIG problem.
Restless hormones too.

Tuesday was a flop selling Mua Ji. Sticky rice just isn't right.
Wednesday was a little better with Choir but Econs test was a bummer.
Yoga was pain. Really Yoga sensual? Haha.
The Acapella trainer pretty fun too, but Tequila Samba came out a very wrong song. The "sexy" word was seriously OVERUSED!

Oh yes, running to school and back is a pretty nice 9km route. although, I ought to be running a titsy bit longer.

Weekends are here! Ought to polish up the rusty gears of maths, run, swim and hopefully read up graph theory!

oh bother.

today's training was bad.
I was dying. Literally.
When we had to do the striding, my body was pretty cold, my head was light.
Did the flu go into my brain?

It was hard-pressed till the end.
Without the determination to finish training, I would have given up.
Gosh. Whats happening?

Ah well, BOTHER!

friday:
really tired. went for training. practically sleeping and running. slept at night at 11. woke up at 9. longest sleep ever! in a long time that is

saturday:
completed work. rushed to memorise lyrics. train on my own.

CHOIR!

it wasn't a perfect performance but hey, its still not utterly atrocious.
before performing, it was pretty fun. actually, i'm pretty surprised that i wasn't nervous.
probably too small a crowd.

after that, had supper with a few others. mostly year 5's.
awesome that the batch can finally sit down and know one another.
went home and zonked out in bed.

sunday:
woke up late. studied. lunch. studied. ran.

weirdly, i felt happy with the timing. it was pretty slow but i think the endorphins did a little manipulation with my brain.

bah! another hectic week!

What a splendid Monday! Finally, work was not isssued out today! Though there is still IOP. :P

Anyhow, with Ryan reminding me, Ryan happily told Yao that I am a hero. GREAT. The response is quite amusing though.

Last week was stress-filled. Friday night was a celebratory one where I finally get back to old company.Though money leaked, it was worth it.

For this week, I have yet to memorise the words for our Guest Performance. Cross would have to lie low a little while. Oh yes, and

2.4!

To anyone in general although I think this would narrow down to our dear Marists,

Do anyone of you want to attend the 50th Concert at the Esplanade?

Reply fastly to get goody seats! xD

WOW. Its been quite a bad week. Mostly my temper was bad due to the lack of sleep.

Pretty much a relief that I didn't show it in school or dissipate it on anyone. Oh yes, and probably Weds tub of ice-cream did a little to the tweek to a more positive mood..

Bad bad mood. Really. At least I got a few people to keep me laughing. Running's endorphins probably helped too.

And guess whats with the muddy mood? Its the lack of SLEEP!

bother oh bother its the start of the school term again!

hmm. The Wings run was quite a flop for me. Well, I just couldn't step up the pace. Grrr.

Cross country took up 5 of my 9 days during the holidays. Wonderful eh?

Homework isn't much of a problem. But now, I remembered that its time to prepare for whats coming in term two. Gosh!

Choir has interesting so far. French pronunciation for Nicolette is awfully wacky. Oh yes, and Choir started with runs around the level. Its pretty fun! Hope this improve the fitness of everyone!

And yes, I broke a vow. I have yet to make anything! No time for Panna Cotta or a simple apple crumble.

:(

the start of the holidays.

Well, i am pretty sure that i got lucky with the term 1's tests. Really.
Aside from that, I've got to start training hard! My running has been unusually slow...Gosh!

Finally, i got to squeeze out time to bake at least once. or at least a Panna Cotta.

bother.

its busy busy busy everyday.

cannot possibly go down to the nitty gritty stuff but on a whole:

cross country has been quite bad. im far too slow.

choir has been better. the situation where i 'sit down and stone' has been reduced.

school periods are not bad either. great class. but even so, its pretty stressful studying with a whole lot of people with sky high intellectual ability.

canteen food is great. the malay stall has been seeing much of aw sze jet and also the dessert stall.

to end: i ought to improve my fitness.

Visiting was interesting this year. Actually talked quite a bit to a cousin whom I HARDLY talked to in my life. Seems like ACS gels everything together..

Then its, pineapple tarts, peanut cookies, almond cookies, oatmeal and raisin cookies, cornflake cookies, some weird cookies, SWEET preserve fruits, egg cake,caesar salad, banana split, chcolate mousse, grandma's delicacies, maid's delicacies, swordfish collar, beef prosperity burger( yes! I ate Macs! :O)

the bottomline of the new year. I ate alot!

Results from O's tells me that working hard pays off. I really am glad that I was blessed with the results.

In the hall when I saw my name, all I can say is that my intestines gave a painful lurch.. Anyhow, I REALLY love the class for giving me the support when they shouted my name. I mean, everybody should get to experience that too. People shouting your name is...really touching.

Classmates did well while some others didn't do too good. I know you would think its so easy for me to say this but to those that didn't do so well, don't be discouraged. There is a reason for that which will lead you to a place where you defintiely will exel in.

If you worked your best but didn't meet your expectations, don't be too depressed. Yes, it may take a while for you to get over it but quickly recover and try again. And as somebody told me before, results are only tangible, it is the process that means something.

Quote from "That's Life" sang by Frank Sinatra and recently, Micheal Buble. "Each time I find myself laying flat on my face,I just pick myself up and get back in the race"

Oh crap, this post is sooo corny

busy busy busy.

This week was the first week of lessons but it seems that we had them for ages already! Teachers are pleasant but some are just a pain. Although, i think all of them are good. I THINK!

Attended Choir for the first time. My background of music has to be re-defined man. Anyhow, it was good to go back to music.

Cross is tiring. I dont really push myself though. Just dont have any urge. Should I start pushing?

Got to stop. Theres training tommorow and no late nights are allowed.

Phooey!

Well, what can i say? ACS(I) is a nice, friendly and what-i-expected community!

Felt somewhat welcomed. My OG is great but most probably, we're seperating due to Sub Combis which is quite a pity. Which means, new people have to be met. I like my present OG though.

We have very funny arse guys in the OG which livin's up the spirit. Girls are a friendly bunch too, but a dip for them is the ratio of guys to girls in the class. :(

Oh yes, I joined the first cross training. They are uber nice people! And my name is in for Choir Audis and Science Research Challange. So looks like its geek and gay for me.

whopee dee! 2008 is here. Somehow, i dread it. I got this really awful feeling about O levels.

All the questions just keeps flashing in my head.

Anyhow, SOD IT!

Looking back at '07. It has been not a bad year indeed.

From disliking my class during Januarary to actually missing it in December.

The urge to embrace JC with open arms in Janurary and now, actually dropping that idea.

Seen alot in 07. Done alot in 07.

07 is and was a major year in my life so far.

Kinda mushy?
