*cough*
baaaadddd cough today :(
anyway, went to vivo to meet yuxin and weijia today. lala~ had a wonderful meal at earle's swensons today :) no more baked rice~ wheeee~ yep yep. got this seafood plater and a crayfish pasta (apparently, I have to dismember the crayfish) lol... then we had the ice cream fondue (which aggravated the cough) weijia, after eating the ice cream, got damn cold. then she jus grabbed on to my arm, and according to the zeroth law of thermodynamics, we are in thermal equilibrium... well, you get the idea.
then we went waking around vivo. well, in vivo, prices are kind of jacked up.
and of course the main agenda of the day is to drink at starbucks :) got my favourite java chips frappe :) (which further aggravates the cough) lala~ then the three of us just spent a lot of time reminising about our jc life. the most eventful years of my life. s01d, the class which was practically made of stones :P The people that I really misses. the good friends that I love (platonically of course!) so much and the infactuations. somehow, I wished I know each and everyone a lot better. there are regrets and there are proud moments. there are happiness and tears. ups and downs all packed into a mere two years.
time really flies. to think that 3month ago, I was still at cpf hoping that my relief teaching days will start soon... and zoom... one term had just went past.
now I'm hoping uni starts soon
who knows
it may be over before I realise.
dream school is approaching

universities
lala~
met wj at clementi to go for the NUS open house on saturday. (was late, cos apparently the usually very early grace took the wrong bus followed by the train in the wrong direction) yep. then got to the engineering faculty of NUS. the building was old - much older than the science faculty which I used to go for SRP. lol... then we went to look see the halls. the halls were new and look quite nice. rooms were quite cosy :)
then we rushed away, to NTU. went to the kent ridge terminal and randomly took a bus to buona vista. was a good choice cos there was a shuttle bus from buona vista to NTU. NTU, the buildings were nice :) really new buildings with nice blue translucent windows. oooh... saw the aerospace building :) which haven't open yet. nice, heard they have a chopper inside :) lala~
lala~
finally submitted my PSC essay!

rants
ok this is damn random. I am feeling so freaking bored like right here at this freaking damn boring job. WTH! they had decided to re-shuffle our seats again. I think the sups have something against us or something. *pissed* we do talk a lot, but that's 'cause we are all so freaking far apart. nvm... we are like going for a mass pangseh of this job. lol...
damn.
I can't go back to rj to teach already. blame me for being slow, asking Mr Lee if there is any vacancies like in the middle of Feb. now if I quit my current job, I would be unemployed... again... :( sian... I shall go and bug more schools.
damn.
I screwed GP (as usual) *pissed* ok. I did meet criteria for Cambridge and now everything depends on my scholarship apps. but kind of weird getting same grades for prelims and A levels. make me seem like I never improve at all :( oh well... see what comes my way.
damn.
to make the matter worse, I broke my index finger nails. ouch... and I'm like typing with it now. I still can see the cut there :( painful!!! *sobs*
This is making me depressed
anyway, wang lu is back!!! yayy!!! but I just realised that I can't contact her, but she can contact me. :S to wang lu: if you happen to see this, please call me asap hor! yep yep.
and these few days, I couldn't get a few songs out of my head. and they all got tian1 shi3 inside :D
I wonder who is my tian1 shi3
damn.

Oxymoron
An interesting conversation went yesterday.
A: if we get into London schools, we can buy a place together.
B: rent you mean.
A: yah rent.
B: then I cook, you do the dishes.
A: no. I cook, you do the dishes.
B: no. I cook, you do the dishes.
A: no. I cook, you do the dishes.
B: oh yar. I never do home econs, you won't trust my cooking
A: yah loh, I took home econs, so I cook, you do the dishes
B: but I don't want to do the dishes
A: but I am cooking, so you have to do the dishes
Pause
A: ok lah, I do the dishes, you do the laundry
B: I don't want to do the laundry!
A: then you do the dishes and mop the floor!
lol... ok crap. this is starting to sound too lame.
And I found one out something yesterday while writing my personal statement. I actually tyco the meaning of predilection. (I happen to be using the thesaurus to find other words for "liking") well, was chionging my personal statement late into the night, before receiving information that Mr Lee wouldn't be in school. ok. at least now I got three days to do a proper one. Now I really wonder why I am doing so much stuff for the university application, when I already set my mind on one college, which was within my reach, One that I should be able to go to (if I don't screw up my A levels and get an overseas scholarship). being in RJ really makes one set big dreams.
Went back to YCKPS today. walked around the whole school before I manage to find Mr Tang. most of my other teachers are no longer teaching there, prolly somewhere else. stayed there for a while before deciding to head back to RJ. YCK was not exactly the place I would want to hang around. its just so... bittersweet.(reminds me of bittersweet symphony which I happens to be listening to now)
Unfortunately, since it is nearing the end of the year, grace is getting a little angsty. sometimes I really don't mean to snap at some people who got on my nerve, but I found out one thing. If I don't express my feelings, people just take you for granted.
Last but not least, I got my new pair of shoes :) Nike total 90. cool!

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Trying to make ends meet
You're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the veins meet yeah
No change, I can't change
I can't change, I can't change
But I'm here in my mind
I am here in my mind
But I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mind
No, no, no, no, no, no, no,no,no,no,no,no(fading away)
Well I never pray
But tonight I'm on my knees yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
But the airways are clean and there's nobody singing to me now
No change, I can't change
I can't change, I can't change

Exam psalm
Anyway, here's something for all those out there, mugging (or not) for exams, those flunking like me or scoring damn high, Christians and non Christian alike.
The Exam Psalm
The lord is my shepherd
I shall not flunk
Tho' I walk through the
valley of boderline grades,
I will not have a nervous breakdown;
For Thou art with me;
My prayers and my friends,
they comfort me.
Thou givest me the answers
in moments of blankness;
Thous anointest my head with understanding;
My exam paper runneth over
with questions that I recognise.
Surely passing grades and flying
colours shall follow me
All the days of examinations.
Amen!
The lord is my shepherd
I shall not flunk
Tho' I walk through the
valley of boderline grades,
I will not have a nervous breakdown;
For Thou art with me;
My prayers and my friends,
they comfort me.
Thou givest me the answers
in moments of blankness;
Thous anointest my head with understanding;
My exam paper runneth over
with questions that I recognise.
Surely passing grades and flying
colours shall follow me
All the days of examinations.
Amen!
