there's this freaking irritating santhi who keeps spotting me for folding shirts. BLAH! i know it's wrong of me to fold my shirt, but is it 100% right for the councillors to wear their ties like as if they're attending fashion shows? i've seen that many times already, and somemore from the secondary 3s. what the heck! i can't even learn from the good examples the councillors are being. if she wanna catch me for folding shirts, call her fucking go sack her councillors first. does she think all her councillors tuck in their shirts properly? it's like i've seen it all for myself, not heard from others. bloody bias creature, i'm not being racist here. if you say im racist for this, then santhi's councillor-ist. and the school said there's fewer people tucking out their shirts because they introduced the new uniform. but from what i've seen, the school has set a new trend - super duper long & oversized shirts that goes all the way to the thighs.
i think she's the only bloody teacher in the whole school who thinks i'm a bad kid lah! anyway, i was once a bad kid, but not anymore. and even if the other teachers don't see me as those guai kia types, at least none of them regarded me as the disobedient type lah. so according to majority, im a guai kia, or at least perceived as such. HAHA!

i think some teachers are so fun to be with.
mrslohmf isnt so bad, but maybe not exactly fun to be with. during school hours, she may be yelling and scolding for no apparent reason, but after school hours, she's still okay lah. and sometimes, the way she talks just make me wanna laugh too. especially the way she laughs!
hmm.. then most other teachers are quite fine lah, except a few not worthy of mention.
ms ker saw a broom and took it to sweep her area. and ms liao was flipping newspapers. then ms ker passed ms liao the broom and asked her to experiment it. then she said it's like those olden days. and ms liao started talking about the vacuum cleaner and how she's gonna bring it there, instead of using brooms. in fact, she overreacted when ms ker told her she found 1 more broom.
and that ms liao, go round staffroom disturb people and play with those armchairs. in the end, vicki loh had to push those 2 armchairs back to the original place.
ms ker said mr g gonna put a fridge between their area. gosh! i think he's too rich lah. then she called him and they talked. then ms ker complained that the whole morning, she's been getting the same reply that art club stuffs are already shifting, but none of the trucks arrived yet. and ms ker went on to elaborate how free she was until she cleaned their area so many times already. and she added in that it's so comforting to hear that she has cleaned the area so many times, cos they will be sitting together.
oh yes, ms ker did bring the red&green beans detention thing. HAHA! really evil.
then there's this once we went in and walked around the whole staffroom and maybe disturbed zhanglaoshi, and she said we are enjoying free aircon.
ms ker gave me special permission to use handphone in school today. for 1 day only. and only can call her. then suddenly got someone call me and ms liao was beside. and i just so casually asked if i can receive a call. then she said can, so i received it, and then the caller hung up. like DUH! then ms liao was like 'no more already ah?' and she started suggesting me to go under table to receive calls. but she's like weird lah. everytime i use phone in school, she'll say be careful and those kinda things. then if i use right in front of her, i think she dont mind?
initially when we just reached the school, supposed to meet ms ker in canteen, but we saw her coming down the stairs, and we purposely walked away. then we say we wanted to go find ms liao to pass her the 100plus. she said ms liao is upstairs, so we followed her. what happened was that she saw mrsloh at second level and got distracted and walked towards her and started talking, then she asked her 'why did i come here? staffroom on 3rd floor. i saw you here then i also come here.' it's so funny. then went to find ms liao and she invited us to go into the staffroom. and that's when the 2 teachers started to be like so childish.
anyway, can't really remember all the stuffs that happened in staffroom today lah. it's just damn hilarious but i'm also lazy to type out everything that happened. especially those childish things that the 2 teachers did, too much to mention already.
oh yes, 1 thing i shouldnt leave out.
the staffroom actually became alot quieter after ms liao left.
anyway, she was funny this morning too. the bus for the band people already leaving and mr ng was hurrying the few of them. and ms liao stopped her steps immediately when mr ng said the bus was leaving soon. she waited for the other few members to come out and then continued walking. and the way she walked was like she's carrying some toys to distribute to the children, seriously looked like santa claus. bus gonna leave and she walk so slow somemore, it's not like she got drive to school lah.
and the bell in the staffroom was damn loud. freaking irritating too! cos the bell's like so long and so loud that i was waiting and wondering when it would stop. but thumbs up to the good preventive measures, especially some particular teachers who likes to go back to school during holidays just to sleep in the luxury of the free aircon!
enough already. don't disclose so much about the teachers. they need some privacy too!
i failed once again @ 11:09:00 pm
today's english remedial was fun as well.
but she was noticing me throughout. BLAH!
i'll survive thru the last english remedial session tomorrow!
i'm so so tired now.
but then, it's all worth it.
so damn fun, and funny too.
100% miss VQJ! LOL!
anyway, went new school today to help ms ker with the art stuffs.
then we were waiting for god-knows-how-long before the things came.
so while waiting, we whiled away our time in the staffroom.
can't stand ms ker & ms liao, both of them are so hilarious.
especially ms liao, she was super crappy. first time i've seen her like that.
she's like so free, go round whole staffroom look for people to disturb.
and most of the time, the noise level was caused by the 2 of them only.
most teachers present were females. and they were freaking out at insects!
apparently, there were some confusions with the art things too.
at the end, art stuffs were stopped! because it is taking up way too much time.
what the heck! that day i saw was like 270plus boxes. now, it's 600plus.
i said art club & library were vying for the title. -.-
went JEC for dinner.
and suay again, saw blah..
anyway, talked so much.
just damn fun day;

BLAH!
english remedial today changed to 1pm, and only 9 turned up. lesser and lesser of the group is attending. anyway, i like it! today's session is another fun one! but it's like i reached school at 1030am and saw latimer with the group of english teachers. then she so casually asked "it's at 1, right?" then i was like "i thought it's 11?" and she said she just changed it yesterday. she only told a few. and it was lucky she could make it at 1, because she wasn't sure if she could make it. >.<>
tomorrow im reporting to school by 9am, to look for ms ker! and there'll be english remedial from 1030am to 12pm. i wanna help ms ker! (:
once again, utter suay-ness. ran into my dear CM again. it's sad he doesn't know who is jasmine even after 2 years of being her CM cum mother tongue teacher. he only knows 'ming li' and not jasmine.
i've just received 1 piece of great news, really worth me being happy, but somehow, im just not happy & i dont know why. anyway, the edusave scholarship letter found its way to my house again! xP
1 more week for me to chiong my chemistry, shit!
HAHA! mrs loh accidentally said something. and now i know about it. or maybe, she just simply wanted to let me know.
so many teachers in our school getting married this holiday. so they're still as busy! sounds like as if they are over-reacting to the big bonuses & the pay rise. and they are hurrying to get married before next year the GST rises to 7%. LOL! the teachers who are already married are poor things. need to give away so many angbaos.
january 13. im waiting!

it's finally purple, happy?
nevermind. there's more lime green.
=]
bye to orange & brown now.
bye to old building on 30nov.
and soon, need to say bye to 2006.
why must there be such a thing called separation?
anyway, went to new school today.
i reached like freaking early, IMO.
im supposed to be the late types, who reach right on the dot.
but i left home with my mother, so i reached earlier.
squeezed to get onto 176.
then thru the journey, there was this fat man pressing his stomach on my hand which was holding onto the pole. it's damn irritating! especially when his stomach was like sweating? and making my hand wet all over.
anyway, the bus which i took, many people alighted the moment they saw the building. but i didn't alight yet. im so smart, i alighted at the bus-stop nearer to the school! and it's my first time there only. xP
new school is okay okay lah. the good thing is that it's spacious. but i don't like it for the fact that its designed is just so stereotypical. for the design, i prefer the old building. another thing is that it's damn freaking hot! imagine having examinations in the hall and you're like sweating throughout the paper. there's like only fans at the side? not even any at the back also. but then the classrooms are like full of fans, and teachers have special fans! so unfair. teachers don't pay school fees, they only take monthly salaries and bonuses! nothing much to comment on about the new school. my sweat glands will be hyperactive!
went to library in the afternoon & it was shivering cold.
thank god i brought my jacket along.
morning - hot & afternoon - cold. =O
english remedials resuming tomorrow again.
but it's fine since that passage is quite manageable!
DAMN.
so irritated.
i went for dinner & left the computer on.
my father came to use without asking, i don't blame him. afterall, it's a shared computer and he's my father.
after he finished using it, he go open all my windows to see what i was doing.
then i came back to use it, and the IE connection wasn't working properly for some special reasons only known to my father.
it's just thaaaat pissing me off!
my brother's such a slacker, didn't report for to camp for so many days. but somehow, i prefer him to be home sometime. for the fact he can accompany me and joke with me and make me laugh. nevermind, too much laughters may be abit unhealthy.
anyway, smithy methias tripped on the stairs just now!
"i am going to plant a tree now." - mrs teo
"i thought there's only 1 stairs there?" - yes, our teachers are still unfamilarised with the new school. somemore, it's discipline committee teacher.
freaking irritating IE connection!
one day, im gonna invent a delicacy with the name of 'PURPLE CHOCOLATE', like how there's such a thing called 'PURPLE GOLD' now.

everything's so weird. somehow, i feel like the world's gonna collapse soon and ill be buried alive with all that english assessments. im spending so many hours per day trying to do english. and at the end of the day, what i just want is my english to improve. for now, even if can get just get a B for english examinations, ill be over the moon. but the situation is that my english results are not stable yet. im either failing or getting Cs. but getting C for english examinations to me now, is sort of lucky already. my mind is filled with schoolwork every moment even though i am still not feeling any stress or pressure. the thing is, whatever im doing, ill have at least 1 english assessment by my side, doing it. its like im doing that as if its a leisure kinda thing, i dont see it as a forced thing. even sleeping, i dream of teachers & school stuffs. this week alone, 3 days i have dreamt of teachers and 2 days i have dreamt of other school stuffs. it seems like my world is just revolving round the word school. and even though im seizing every opportunity available to do schoolwork, i keep telling myself i have wasted the day away before i sleep every night. its just that kinda strange feeling. i have been dedicating all my time to english. im not even bothering about chemistry, which is my favourite subject. and i dont know why... i keep wanting to do chemistry, but in the end, i chose english all the time. theres just this strong feeling in me that makes me pick up the english assessment instead of chemistry stuffs. but then, by hook or by crook, ill still have to do that by early december, which is like 2 weeks left? and somemore, im like staying up late into the night just to do english, something which i have never done before. somehow, i think this holidays, im really set to catch up with all those subjects that needs more catching up with. i have already done all physics tys mcq from unit 1. and im planning another 2 days to do unit 2 and 3. i think this holidays is the weirdest im gonna survive through. ive never went back for remedials during nov holidays before, but this time, im going back all the way until nov ends. yes, and its just for english. i dont know why i keep mentioning the word 'english' too. maybe im starting to take a liking to this subject... its absolutely weird how i can be stuck at home doing schoolwork the whole day and not even complain or feel tired or stressed. and its like i went westmall on my own that day, i walked there. then another day, i went to the library on my own. i think im like starting to go places on my own, even though it can be super boring, but i just enjoy the peacefulness of it all. somehow, i just feel as though i have unlimited time on my hands... but then to think of it, im gonna feel out of place when i cant rush my homework the night before school reopens like ive always been doing.
the year 2006 is like coming to an end in about 30plus days. and another reason why im gonna feel weird is that this is the first time im not gonna spend the new year in singapore in like my 15 years of living on the earth. 2007 is fast approaching, and i have no plans or any new year resolutions yet. at the most, only those things under my wishlist in the blog, which is basically all to do with school. first, improving english. thats more of a NEED, it shouldnt even be a want. im just so desperate for that B for english. it all started last end of year when i wrote totally out of point for essay and the marker failed my essay badly with like 7 to 9 marks. but then my overall for english eoy was still like 52, so if i didnt fail that essay, i could have gotten like probably a B for my eoy last year. and it was like my CA2 marks for english last year was 69. i just dont know what happened. the only thing i know is that its scary. maybe its because i cant pick myself up from the failure yet, or maybe its just im not used to latimer yet. second, its L1R5<12.>
i feel there's quite little holiday homework actually, though im still left with alot to do.
1. News Articles - English, Chinese, Economics.
2. Chemistry Self-study: Nitrogen & Sulphur.
3. Geography TYS MCQ [which i hope i can finish by Tuesday]
4. English Assessments + Resource Bank.
i failed once again @ 2:24:00 pm
stuck at home doing english the whole day.
need to complete 4 assessment books by 28th, before i leave.
>.<
GRR! actually wanted go SDC tomorrow.
since there were free tickets. i was quite interested.
but.. im not going. cos i cant find companion.
think it's gonna be another day stuck doing english again.
since my parents will be out like almost the whole day...
had pizza for dinner! xP
im tired of fastfood.
today was school open house at the new site.
not even interested to go at all.
my curious brother keep asking how's it like.
i told him to go check it for himself, but he's lazy.
monday need to wake up early again. maybe 7am?
and lucky english remedials for rest of the week is still at old site!
means i can wake up late & go out late.
im starting to like comprehension, because she's giving easy passages!
grammar & vocabulary exercises are driving me crazy though.
anyway, i went popular that day. saw the geography guides, which seemed quite good. but im not gonna get it lah, waste of money only. why invest all my money on education right? humans need entertainment!
oh yes, i was really rushing my homework the other day at the library. within 90 minutes, i finished 2 baozhangbaodao and 1 yingyongwen. now for chinese homework, still left with the 8 news articles. 1 fine day, i shall do ALL articles, inclusive of every subject that's needed.
hmm.. the civil servants are really getting big bucks! not long ago, say that their overall year bonus would be 2.7. then now, civil service salaries likely to go up. i think we can omit the word 'likely'. =] our teachers are all gonna be so rich when next year starts. maybe the staffroom will be full of all their new stuffs. BUT... teachers dont get among the highest salaries lah.. its just their monthly salaries are higher than my parents'.
my life revolves round nothing;

somehow, i pity the artclub vice-chairman.
here's her story she told me today...
around 1030am, there was a phone call. she received the phone call and was shouting into the phone like a maniac, especially so when she's the only person at home. the caller introduced herself/himself as ms ruth ng and demanded her to go back to school like NOW! so she didn't even have time to bathe and only had a change of clothes then rushed to school. she climbed the 5 storeys all the way to artroom and reported. she was given a job of dry-cleaning all the 15 display stands outside the artroom, albeit there were only 14. as she was cleaning, 1 of the school-employed cleaners asked her for help to carry those stupid artpieces. she had to carry it and walk backwards and be careful not to break it. then, back to dry-cleaning. she said it was disgusting. most of them were rusty, and there were spiders and moth. after she cleaned them, she had to tiptoe so high to clean the tops of many cupboards. after that, she had to drag 1 box of dont-know-what backwards again. i thought she's lucky she didn't fall. after that, it was almost 1pm. she helped the artcoordinator write some stuffs and rushed to 3/3 for english remedial. after she reached home, she cooked herself a very simple meal which was instant noodles. it was already 3pm when she ate her breakfast/lunch/brunch/teabreak. i somehow pity her, holidays still like that. no doubt last time around jan to feb i didn't eat anything for recess or lunch, but that was schooldays. you see, holidays has completely lost its meaning to the artclub vice-chairman. it's like suddenly the whole artclub ps her those type of feeling. she was the only 1 helping while others were already not in singapore or were leaving singapore. only until she almost completed cleaning the 15 stands, that secondary 1 member came to do something, in the luxury of the aircon room somemore!
she saw 2 teachers whom she liked, but didn't even talk, let alone smile. maybe say got talk abit to 1.
she also told me ruthng showed her the plan of the new school building. there's like 8 blocks? block A to block H. then most of the CCA rooms are located in block H, if she didn't remember wrongly. then most of the classrooms were in block D & E or block C & D, but there were a few other classrooms in another block. other than that, she forgot about the other rooms. she may be going back on the 29th of november to help a teacher, i suppose, but from what i heard, ruthng didn't call her back on that day, so she's fortunate even though she's most probably gonna be listening to her instructions again. then, she may be going back to the new school building on either the 5th or 6th of december to find a teacher. let's pray hard together that she doesn't lose her way in the new school building then. also, she's most likely not gonna be free on the 12th of december. well, the date hasn't been confirmed yet. and, she will be MIA from 29th dec all the way till school reopens. so please, no last minute reminders about this & that hopefully.
that day, she also saw the school's pamphlet. on it was written 'concept by gerald ajam', whoever that is im not sure. i think it should be 1 of her teachers. anyway, she said the pamphlet's quite nice? sort of unique because it's round shaped, unlike the usual rectangular shaped types. however, she said that if someone opens up the pamphlet, it's quite long compared to a normal one. but overall, she commented it's quite nice even though she has absolutely no clue why gerald ajam was the person who designed it, instead of that artcoordinator or some other IT personnels in the school.
oh yes, it seems as if there's some competition between the artroom & the library. both are vying to get the title of 'most boxes used for moving'. the library has a record of at least 300, or probably more? while the artroom has at least 270plus...
haven't been to the new school compounds yet and am not planning to too. i shall only find myself in the vicinity of the new school compounds on the 27th of november. im planning to take 176 there, which i suppose by the time it reaches my stop, will be quite packed. so i suppose i gonna be late, given that lady luck is not on my side!
the only thing i heard about the new school is that the classrooms will be 1 and a half times bigger than the ones at the current site. then of course, there'll be more fans for better air circulation. then also heard that there's gonna be the raised platform in front of the classrooms, not sure true or not though. btw, just a note, info found on this site has found to be never 100% accurate.
yes! i completed economics notes last night.
planning to do some chemistry stuffs.
seems like i won't be free on most days.
24nov - english remedial
27nov - school migration

03jan - new academic year
i should be getting my english assessment books either tomorrow or saturday. if tomorrow, i'll go alone. if it's saturday, most probably going with mother. so, that leaves me with 27 days when im free. but 1dec, there's the economics thingy need to go his LJ see and will at least take 1 day to complete the thingy. then, i also need to set aside at least 1 day to pack my stuffs for going to malaysia. so, that leaves me with 25 days to concentrate on studies! i'll take 1 day to catch up with ALL the english & economics news articles. then, at least 3 days to complete all the homework, including chinese. that's down to 21 days. plus 25th dec is christmas so i may or may not be free, depends on everything. then it's down to 20 days! 20 days to complete 4 english assessment books. that may well mean 1 book in 5 days, worst than Barrons. also, i need to study for other subjects too right! and need do practise questions for other subjects too right! so you see how packed this holidays is. frankly speaking, the busiest holidays i've ever had, to the extent i try to my very best to squeeze in time to do this and that. GOSH! can't imagine. but nevermind, after that continuous struggle, within 1 years time, we're all gonna have the whole world of time on our hands. so let's suffer together first & rejoice later. 1 year doesn't seem too long right? it's bearable.
wow.
what a long post!
and is band really not having any overseas trip?
i think im really gonna roll on the floor laughing.
at first, it was australia. it sounded damn cool!
then, it was too expensive. may be changed to thailand.
well.. still okay. at least it's plane trip, even though 2h.
now, no band trip? only band camp?
it's so damn hilarious when i gotta know about it.
but im also not sure if it's true. HAHA!
oh yes, btw speaking of it, im only going to genting. >< go till tired already and still going there. but this time, there's only 7 of us going together. 4 adults, 3 teenagers, 5 females, 2 males. it's gonna be super boring. only 3 of us playing. and my cousin told me it's bcos our parents wanted us to get closer with each other, like how we used to be. it's like so DIAO, seriously. anyway, i can already predict what's gonna happen during those few days. so i shall blog first in case i got no time to blog when i get back cos school will start. so yes, here i go. 29dec night, go to golden mile complex take bus. midnight reach genting. shucks! that means most probably gonna take the old cable car? means squeezing with everyone & no seats! no, i shall hope bus go genting direct in such cases. after that, check in to hotel probably already 4am? then sleep until at least 10am or maybe till 12pm and go for meals. we'll either go bowling or go catch a movie or just shopped around the whole day. then we'll sleep early, probably around 9pm. next day, 30jan, most probably gonna wake up at 6am. then we'll wash up and this & that and by the time, it's 7am we'll go for breakfast until it's 8am when the theme park opens and we'll PLAY! lunchtime, we'll most probably settle for fastfood. then, we shall go for bowling & maybe the indoor rockclimbing? after which we shall go play again until dinner time. then, dinner will most probably be those zhu chao or foodcourt. then play until theme park closes, either 12mn or 1am. after that, we'll go back and bathe and maybe only sleep at 2am? then next day wake up at 6am and the routine continues again until the day we're coming back. it's so standard procedures everytime we go there. 3jan im gonna be super tired and exhausted that i'll most probably be in dreamland while the teachers are coming in one by one and saying 'four-two, this year got O levels, it's a crucial year. you all cannot play like last year anymore..........' also, i'll maybe be dozing off when the principal is making her welcome speech again. i think i'll reach home late on 2jan cos there's bound to be jam.
no time to meet up with primary school friends! damn.
anyway, im so disheartened my mother doesnt allow me to go ACJC! i think i'll be reconsidering entering a poly. it's not that bad afterall. even if i go JC, i'll suffer like hell cos of GP what. at most, i'll just give up my interest of economics and go pursue chemistry, whatever courses available, in poly. i really don't wanna go JJC or PJC lah. just cause my damn brother went to SAJC and complained about the christian stuffs and that he did badly for his As until cannot retain and cannot go U then can only go poly and waste his 2 years of JC, then my mother dont want me to go ACJC bcos she thinks it's only for the rich. i thought education in singapore is not only for higher-income families? since secondary 2 or around there, i've been aiming to go ACJC and now, i know my dreams of entering that JC is gonna be shattered. what's the point of slogging my guts out and studying so hard? my brother is like totally different from me can! he used to be smart ass in primary school that's why my parents just think he's forever smart. and im always the stupid one. then my brother got 252 for PSLE, inclusive of the hmt bonus. i got 246 but i dont take hmt cos i dont qualify for EM1. so i came to commonwealth secondary. 2 times different people has asked why i dont go bphgs, but i think it would be like hell if i go there. my parents will most probably say so stupid still go there or give comments of this sort. then my brother entered commonwealth secondary special stream while i entered express stream only. after secondary 1, i was given chance to take higher mother tongue but i decided not to. after secondary 2, i told my mother the streaming results. my brother heard it and he was saying take 9 subjects so what? economics no use one. in fact, many of my relatives were against me taking economics, they say i will fail badly and stuffs like that. at the end, i got those kinda results for MYE and EOY. then my mother compared with my 2 other cousins, 1 from RVHS, the other from PRCSS. RVHS overall % got 69 and L1R5 was 13. PRCSS overall % was 70 and L1R5 was 14. my mother was saying im so lousy and stuffs like that even though our L1R5 same. then that day she called me i told her my position thru phone she don't even wanna believe. she say if like that, then it must be commonwealth secondary very lousy. i just feel so sad. it's so super hard for me to prove my worth. i got those awards but so what? my brother keeps saying he was supposed to get for primary 4 but he forgot the date then didn't go CC take. then my mother helped him by saying it's all because he entered special stream. if he go express stream, he sure will get. like what the heck! go commonwealth secondary express stream really very lousy meh? just cos my term 1 results... it's like what the heck! i think many teachers probably changed their impressions of me already but my family just cant. earlier this year, mrs loh told joanna to coach me in maths. but so what? when she gave me back my EOY e maths p2, she said it helped me pull up alot. some teachers also said abit positive comments. but my parents? my mother was telling my relatives that i have no heart in studying. if i really 100% study, then i will get even better results. no doubt about it, but she didn't see that for semester 2, i really struggled alot just for that. it's so discouraging! it's like i told her different school different standards what. and she say RUBBISH! what the heck! it's like RVHS cousin's results can fit into top 25% of cohort. it's quite good lah, given that it's RVHS! then PRCSS cousin's results can fit into top 25% of cohort, please loh, it's just neighbourhood school. then me, just nicely fit into top 10% of cohort. but so what? she thinks the PRCSS one who got 70% overall and fit into top 25% of a neighbourhood is still better than me and the RVHS one. it's like bloody hell. our L1R5 still the same right? she go what JC is use overall percentages instead of L1R5 one? somemore, both of them taking triple science and im taking triple humanities. is there even basis for comparison? im so tired of all these things. no matter how hard i try, they think im the most stupid, most useless. everytime when i go out with them, my relatives will make fun of me, say i don't do housework. it's like shit! i wash my own clothes & iron them myself, it's just they don't know. and my mother? for god's sake, she doesn't even mop or sweep the floor at all. it has always been my father doing these chores. after dinner, it's also my father who wash up the dishes. for my cousins, it's their mother doing it. and somemore, they have their mother with them all the time cos their mother dont work. for me, i dont. and you know why i started washing and ironing my clothes? its all bcos when i was in primary 5 or primary 6, my mother keeps getting hospitalised every now and then. so i started learning to do all these things on my own. i also wash my shoes myself, just that i dont wash so often. then now, my mother's no longer that way but i still do those things myself. but so what? my relatives just keep touching my hand and say its smooth. what the heck! are you just jealous i've got smooth hands and you've got rough hands? i feel so... my cousins come from rich families, they have their mothers at home all the time. me? my mother doesnt want me to go ACJC just cos she believes its for rich people. then everytime after school, i hate coming home to this lonely house. i'll be exceptionally lonely for hours until my mother comes back and shout at almost everything i do while my father just sits there and make things worse. why cant they just believe i can be smarter than my brother too? just cause he was from EM1 and i was from EM2, just cause he was from special stream and i am from express stream. to them, im just a useless & brainless creature. to my relatives, im someone who doesnt deserve being offered to take hmt & economics.
i should go get a refreshing bath right now!
to save electricity, i won't switch on water heater.
specific heat capacity of water so large.
oh yes.
secondary 4s having prom night today.
have fun;
if it means pursuing chemistry, it also means giving up economics. it means forgetting everything about economics. it means leaving economics. it means sacrificing economics for chemistry.

BAH! there wasn't english remedial today.
so i decided to walk to westmall to return books.
walked there, haven't 10am, but go return books.
then from there, walked back home.
immediately i reached home, received call then rushed out.
rushed back to school the moment i reached home.
after that, lazed around the school, go be PI like that.
yeah lah, wandering souls back to do their duty.
so don't say we're irresponsible! now only 3 souls though.
then helped audrey tham sort the english stuffs.
after that go tell audrey we finished, then saw ms liao.
she go pressed lift already then walk down stairs with us.
walk till outside HOD room then she realised she overshot.
so we ownself walked off, leave her alone.
she drove passed us. weird, her windows all down.
then we walked up and down, decide where to go.
finally went westmall, cos 187 came first.
after that, went for lunch @ koufu again but eat different things.
then i ate very slow, so end up talking and laughing too.
finished lunch and slacked around westmall.
go stand outside coffee bean stare inside to find people.
go NTUC. can't find mushroom. in the end, it's so near entrance.
after that, go bus stop & wait for 187 & go home.
reached home already 4pm. bathed & come online.
at night gotta do economics notes again. BORING!
hopefully can finish by like thursday.
then will do notes for the geography the oil chapter.
after that, still must go learn my physics back from term 1.
haix... why my physics lan? why can't be chemistry?
at least chemistry then liao would go thru with us.
but nevermind, persevere for physics!
others next time then say, if not sure won't complete above tasks.
it's raining again.
just now go out, also never rain.
reach home already, then rain.
must be a type of blessing.
"want then do in the dark, more fun. and dont make too much noise, later people know."

early in the morning, i got a scare.
joanna sms-ed me asking if there was english remedial.
apparently, there wasn't.
lucky for me. i just woke up when she sms me.
and jasmine copied the timings from me too.
my messy table. =]
with piglet motivating me to study, every night! -.-
books all over the place.
apparently, the bookshelf isn't enough yet.
still more to come...
stacking books all over the place doesn't help.
the solution was to dump them in cupboards.
far away from sight. =]
so neatly arranged.
because i seldom touch them!
files & more books!
and post-it notes, part of my life...
my brother's cheating calculator.
my cheating calculator is with couz!
3 consecutive years getting scholarship award.
HAHA! don't ask me why last year don't have...
wasted $43 on this book.
which apparently was of no use at all.
as quoted from the teacher "it's only reading for interests."
i wasn't joking about the stack of books!
many MCQs taken from this stack.
but that's A levels stuffs.
files full of notes + JC textbooks.
see! my room full of books!
however, i'm never gonna be a part of the 'deprived childhood' group in class.
oh ya ah!!
couz still owes me my cheating calculator!
and couz so good somemore.
say wanna buy new phone for me.
i know your yan guang very good.
-.-
anyway, my mother said my father said he wanna buy me new phone.
but my mother said my father said i gotta pay myself.
it's so tiring to type 'my mother said my father said' everytime...
my mother's playing the role of a mediator.
i'm not bothered with this anyway, cos i know most probably end up won't buy.
HAHA! and as long as this phone is still functional, it's okay with me.
well, except for calling people accidentally all the time...

actually, i do not need to do well for O levels.
there's no high expectations of me at all.
i mean... well, people are stressed because their siblings are like 6 to 8 pointers those type. my brother's a 12-pointer! so... where does that leave me? 11-pointer might just be enough to please my parents. HAHA! and my mother doesn't want me to get into the JC that i badly wanna get into. she wants me to go into PJC or JJC. so i can max like 15 points for my L1R5 and appeal into PJC, right? no way, i'll just go to a poly straight in such cases.
anyway, what i want others to know is that so what if you have a sibling that's like 10-pointer or lesser? it doesn't guarantee you'll be the same. everyone specialises in different areas. what for go stress yourself up just because your siblings are so super intelligent? so what if you're from the same family? big deal?
yes, i know parents don't understand that they can have 1 super intelligent child and the other as an average child. but, what's the point stressing yourself out to get that straight A1s and leave yourself with a secondary school life you would never want to remember? it's so pathetic.
education in singapore = moulding future of nation?
not exactly. i see some smart asses who are so bloody hell rude!
got wits so what? big deal?
i remember primary six injection. the nurses commented on how smart & brave we are despite us being EM2 stream and 4th class in level. know what? 6A and 6B and part of 6C people were crying. if you are intelligent enough, you should know that crying doesn't alleviate the pain of the injection, or maybe i'm stupid that's why i didn't know it actually helps.
i somehow hope our class can be like my primary 6 class.
even though we were from the 4th class, our highest in class was like 252.
i know it's not exactly good compared to many of the people in commonwealth secondary school cos most people were from like top 2 classes of their primary schools?
the primary 6 class is really one of the best class i've been in.
people knows how to enjoy life at least. and knows when to study too.

its getting boring at home!
cos i'm the only living thing in it...
must do homework;
which is such a chore.
i feel weird thinking of 4/2'07 somehow.
even my geography textbook, i wrote 3/2.
there's something within that holds me back from writing 4/2.
maybe things have passed by too fast.
from the first time i stepped into this class,
and till yesterday i stepped out from the class.
it's just weird!
somehow, it still doesn't feel like a class yet.
but then, 1 year's already over.
whether you like it or not, there's only 1 more year.
i don't know how things may change next year.
but i'm just praying for the best.
there's not many days that we can still step into that particular classroom.
next year, wholly different environment & pace of learning.
i wonder if i can adapt.
as we're preparing for the next academic year at another premise, i have not much memories to bring with me. there's only this limited amount of memories which i find meaningful. the rest, shall be left in the old school building, and i shouldn't think of them anymore. it's sad there's so few things from this class this year that's worth remembering. however, it's not a surprise to me.
we are giving ourselves too many chances. we are cheating ourselves. we are coming up with the excuse "i did not want to come to this class in the first place." to account for our results. overall, the fact remains that we still do not accept coming to this class or we still cannot accept everyone involved in this class for who they are yet. it's a tragedy. we should just blame ourselves. we should be responsible for ourselves. we should help ourselves.
the hopes & expectations of being in 3/2'06 still seems as fake as ever. 1 year has passed and few of the expectations are met. it wasn't even supposed to be a 10-word sentence kinda thing, yet so many people came up with sentences lesser than 10 words. we rushed to get it done. we didn't even think at all. it's just that fake! does everyone still remember the 2 expectations & hopes they've penned down? was it achieved? or did you simply forget about it?
i see no wrong with those that demands better teachers. but that's a bit selfish. being in 1 of the best class doesn't necessarily mean we need to have 1 of the best teachers for each subject. and even at the end of the year, it's still a shame how our class did overall. i think we all just died together for the end-of-years. i can see that a portion of the class isn't even interested in lessons or teachers at all. so what's the use of getting the better teachers? it's just gonna be a waste that the teacher is teaching our class because at the end, we're just gonna fail with F9s to disappoint the teacher as much as we can.
learning economics may be 1 of the things i have never regretted by far, but coming into this class might actually be something i'm regretting.
at the beginning of the year, it was nice to see the class filled with enthusiasm for each and every lesson. but it seems some people cannot tahan it anymore, they are sleeping, chatting among themselves, laughing, disturbing others, copying homework already. we can no longer be punctual for lessons anymore. there's no enthusiasm for learning anymore. even the worse thing is people resorting to cheating just for the As. have we ever submitted our work as a class on time? when was the last time we did that? do we really deserve it when mdm quek praises us after each lesson? or do we deserve ms kokila's scoldings more? it's really a shame that we cannot learn.
everytime the class is clean, who do we have to thank? kornelius? mdm quek? mr liang lu? was there ever class spirit? what was the thing that we have done together as a class? perhaps making fun of teachers? i'm sorry if i don't participate in the class activities, because i'm already unwilling to do it. and that's why i said there's nothing much worth remembering.
i hate post-examination periods when we receive results. it's normal that everyone is excited or tensed up or scared or just praying hard. it's normal that teachers come in and announce the number of passes & failures, distinctions, and what's the highest score etc. it's normal that teachers would at least wear a smile on their face and scold us later on. but it's abnormal in our class. ms kokila just came in and nag, exactly what she did after mid-year. ms liao came in to distribute our papers without saying anything regarding the paper. mr g came in and slam the stacks of papers on the table and announced class msg for economics was 6. mr liang lu had to say we all did well for chinese only because the marker was extremely lenient. if this goes on, when the day we go back to receive our o levels results arrive, the principal will be mentioning all about the other classes and ignoring the existence of 3/2. the teachers teaching our class would have no face to show up.
failing at least 1 subject per person is a norm for our class. we no longer get the thrill of failing anymore, we are no longer worried and scared about failing. we are numb to it already. we strictly believe our brains should not be contaminated by all the unsuitable materials we are taught in school. we have no morals. we are rude to our teachers. we are racist. we make fun of people simply because we detest them. we are not responsible for our own actions. we do not care about others' feelings because it's supposed to be a world of our own. we do not know what's the meaning of punctuality. we blame others as much as possible. we lie and come up with excuses to escape from as many things as possible. it's a trait in this class.
moving on to the next year, will we be proud to be part of the first triple humanities class in singapore or will be proud that we are disappointing as many as we can?

think that's all.
don't have the list with me so i don't know about chinese.
so fortunate there's no essays, except chinese. ><
i was expecting G to bomb us with those journals for economics, but apparently he didn't!
=]
yesterday was so so so funny!
kokila's expression when she saw mdm quek 'appearing out of nowhere'.
HAHA! i think she got a scare of her life.
but then her expression was really exaggerating.
gosh.. i couldn't stop laughing then.
took class photos with janet tay and irene lim.
sounds kinda strange leh...
they teach us for 3 weeks, we take photos with them.
other teachers teach 1 year, we never think about photo-taking.
but it's always like that..
YAY!

i spent the past hour or so in the blogosphere.
and i really enjoyed it thoroughly! HAHA!
was kinda fun knowing views of different people on the GST hike.
i think i wouldn't even bother about this if i weren't doing economics.
previously, GST to me, is just GST! it's just another type of tax.
now, there's like much more to it. it's really so intriguing!
learning economics is sure 1 thing i never regretted.
instead, why the heck did i even say "i hate economics and i won't ever indicate this choice for streaming" last year? this has really made me realise so many things other subjects cannot. like, so what if you learn languages? the only thing which i think will be useful to me in the future is letter writing. i don't think you go round answering people's questions like answering comprehension questions. and sciences? it's not of really much use unless you're gonna be a teacher, chemist, biologist, doctor or in the fields of architecture and life sciences. knowing simple maths may be useful but not exactly everything will be put to use too. physical geography doesn't bother much adults too. like who will be living thousands of years to witness those processes leading to formation of such things. it's like you have the knowledge, but it's not fun because you can't witness it or apply it in many areas. whereas economics, i would say at least some can be applied in life. like previously, i only know that bak-kwa sellers sell bak-kwa at high prices during CNY seasons so they can earn more money. then now, i see how it all fits in. it's like now, i have a deeper understanding of how selling it at higher prices during CNY only will allow them to earn more.
it has changed my mindset too. from not caring anything about GST to wanting to know so much more about it. there's like this eagerness in me to want to know more, to increase my knowledge. and also, i used to want to go to poly and end my education route. but now, i'm like more of looking forward of going to a JC because i wanna learn more! and those things about 'economics in action' mr G has been talking about, seems so interesting i can't wait to find out. just that the way he says those things are a bit too boring. but so what? it doesn't make me lose interest in the subject itself.
never let go of opportunities. you never know what you're gonna get out of it until you've experienced it.
i think learning economics has enabled me to see things in a wholly different way.
looking forward to english lesson on friday!
i'm not so sure about the remedial lessons though.
7 lessons, 1 and a half hour each, seems draggy.
but then, it's still for the sake of english right...
gah..
think i'll be so tired 1st day of school next year.
my mother suddenly planned this trip to genting.
at the end of the year, i mean literally.
which means that i won't spend the new year in singapore.
and it's like friday all the way to tuesday.
the next day, school will reopen and i'll be dozing off.
but anyway, i just take it as the last break before all that hectic routines come in.
it's strange i'm never looking forward to 27th november.
now that i think of it... LOL!
should be turning in now.
it's 12plus already.
there's physics, combined humanities, chinese & chemistry tomorrow.
the lessons which can make me doze off anytime.
at least there isn't maths and geography.

i feel weird blogging.
it's just like another way of jingwei talking to jingwei.

我闭上眼睛
只是此刻一切失去意义
你送给我的诚意
你写给我的信
抱得太紧却像是空气
我撕着日历
撕到八月三十才甘心
我情愿欺骗自己
我试着假装过去
仿佛重温当天的情景
但你眼角还是不争气
还在说着相同的言语
但我终究不在这里
再怎么装也是多余
我可以选择哭
我可以选择逃
但我不可能选择忘了你的微笑
我仍在默默祈祷
八月三十重新来到
嘴边仍残留着昨夜的天荒地老
为何转眼间深泪伴我终老
在破碎的泪痕前
我显得如此渺小
我撕着日历
撕到八月三十才甘心
我情愿欺骗自己
我试着假装过去
仿佛重温当天的情景
但我嘴角还是不争气
还在说着相同的过去
但你还是不在这里
终究闻不到你的真心
我可以选择哭
我可以选择逃
但我不可能选择忘了你的微笑
我仍在默默祈祷
八月三十重新来到
嘴边仍残留着昨夜的天荒地老
为何转眼间深泪伴我终老
在破碎的泪痕前
我显得如此渺小
就这样 两个人的路 从此一个人逃
就这样 两个人的故事就画上句号
我可以选择哭
我可以选择逃
但我不可能选择忘了你的微笑
我仍在默默祈祷
八月三十重新来到
嘴边仍残留着昨夜的天荒地老
为何转眼间深泪伴我终老
从此我的生命就停留在八月三十号
从此我的生命就。。。重复着八月三十。。。号。。。。

http://www.seab.gov.sg/SEAB/oLevel/2007gceOExamCalendar.htmlso far, it states that MT papers will be on 28 may.
and other written papers will be from 22 oct to 13 nov.
MT listening comprehension will be on 16 july.
english orals will be from 13 aug to 24 aug.
MT orals will be from 28 june to 12 july.
we don't have to bother about practicals cos we're having SPA.
13 nov, which is exactly 1 year from now.
so it's not like our O levels gonna start 1 year from now.
instead, it's gonna end 1 year from now. o.O
but it's only a tentative timetable! i hope the dates doesn't get any earlier.
*crosses fingers*
i have really really itchy hands.
went to flip thru 1 of the economics TYS.
BLAH! that G took most of the MCQ from there.
next time i must study from there!
but at the most, that's only able to secure A for report book, not for O levels.

i left 4 books under the table.
which to me, is ALOT!
think i'm gonna turn into a nerd soon.
especially when 1 steps into my room.
you just see books & books & more books.
that day, i took my brother's JC chemistry & physics textbook.
as ordered by my mother. but being smart, i decided not to touch his TYS.
yesterday, my cousin gave me a whole stack of economics related materials.
1 textbook, and 5 or 6 TYS. the stack's probably 25cm??
GOSH! now my whole room is messy again...
and i seriously hope i don't join the group of super hardworking economics muggers who read thru textbooks they acquired on their own accord. it's like plain sick!
but the fact is, even though my room is filled with books, i seldom touch them.
HAHA! 2 of my cabinets are filled with books.
one entire bookshelf stacked with books in it and on top of it.
a long huge table with some books too.
i guess i only touch one-fifth of the books that's in sight.
BAH! it's like book pollution. O levels student, why got A levels materials?
i think the books are there for show only.
See No Touch! Display set only. NFS.
shouldn't turn into a nerd, please.

RAHH! my piglet ain't with me.
it lost it's way at westmall & followed someone else instead.
nevermind, at least i still have simba.

Hmmm. ...
so went to school today.
had morning PT -- climbing stairs.
after that go staff lounge.
stayed till 12.30pm when school close.
had to reject all calls & act normal.
after that, spent god-knows-how-long deciding where to go for lunch.
in the end, came to a final decision --- westmall.
we split up to get there. 2 boarded 187, 2 boarded 176.
LOL! surprisingly, we reached first even though we took 176.
a really bad day for me.
suay-ness overcame me.
without me knowing or feeling.
first, i bumped into lianglu in staff lounge.
it's like i never see him in school on normal days.
and i actually saw him the moment i entered staff lounge.
then it continued...
second, there was a cricket in my noodles.
i think i probably ordered something like 'noodles with cricket'.
=] but i had no appetite, thus i didn't eat the cricket.
went to 'compliment' the stall vendor for specially whipping this meal for me.
1 of them said 'oh nevermind, the cricket was from the other stall.'
while the other was surprised she actually prepared that for me, she went 'ee'.
and after that, they offered to cook another special meal for me.
but as i said, i have no more appetite so i 'politely' rejected.
i hope it STOPS here.
after lunch, went walking around westmall.
saw 'ker', was quite distinct.
later, spent about 5 minutes deciding where to go.
final decision -- go HOME lah! S T U D Y =]
kinda abit suay lah..
saw giraffe outside.
and i tried to look away.
-.-
anyway, i no longer care.
walked to the bus stop in the rain.
i let 187 go, and had to wait quite long for the next.
because, 2 187 came together after i waited so long.
HAHA! then i was waiting at the bus stop alone.
and it's like ... [got that kinda feeling which i can't describe]
yesterday read peifang's old blog entries.
it's so so so damn funny!
though i can't recall most of them already.
her descriptions of G seriously rocks!
had a really really good laugh.
i forgot vanessa made us stay back for literature make-up lessons because we missed 1 lesson on national day! -.- i only remember her always stopping during lessons. i only remember laughing non-stop in her lessons when she's just beside us all the time. i only remember the 'Dracula' play rocked! i only remember 'midas golden touch' or whatever it is, the story about Sai Kong, all those comics with the bears. i still have my secondary 1 literature notebook.
"sharp nose", "hair stick out", "bu dao weng", "hamburglar", "tigger", "donkey"... it all used to describe G. i forgot most of it already. LOL! i only remember the english trading cards. i only remember the 'dream house' essay. i only remember the 'new school facilities' essay. i only remember him leaving water droplets on the teacher's table after every lesson. i only remember he used to mumble when he used the microphone. i only remember him bouncing and jumping in class. i used to struggle to keep awake in his lessons. i used to give him substandard work for english.
everything was so funny back then...
we used to laugh at practically everything...

1st time during holiday lessons i didn't feel tired!
maybe the coffee helped... or was it sleeping at 930pm?
past few days, been turning in as early as possible.
trying to get as much sleep as possible.
there's physics, maths, chemistry homework.
and of course, the chinese & maths holiday work.
and also, all the newspaper articles & the resource file stuffs.
i'm happy we're getting back mrs loh for maths next year.
=]
we're also having latimer for english next year.
i hope we get back ms liao for chemistry next year too.
someday, i must go read up the geography text on my own!
because i'm not following during lessons, wayyy too boring.
irene lim was angry with us today. because of some people who were late for lessons. it's so irritating that lessons always have to be dragged. if it's after recess, then the soccer players will be late. if it's in between lessons, the girls will be late. ALL THE REGULARS! it doesn't matter if you're late for lesson for a few times, but definitely not every other day! on your part, it's only 1 minute perhaps? but for the rest of the class, it's 40 minutes wasted. i rather maths wasn't this useful, if not i wouldn't know realised how much of our precious time have gone to waste. then later, she was angry because we couldn't name the insoluble gases. i think the class behaves so well in her lessons that now, she gets angry so easily. whereas ms liao, she only fumes when the class doesn't hand in work even though the deadline is wayyy past. probably because of the very different ways the class treat the 2 teachers.
think some people feel irene lim's wayyy better than ms liao. but anyway, to me, both are just about the same. just that for irene lim, she prints notes so that we don't have to copy down notes whereas for liao, we'll be taking down notes the whole lesson. but whatever it is, we'll still have the notes at the end of each lesson. besides that, it's just attitude. the different attitudes we give the different teachers that makes our results different. or maybe it also depends on whether you fully utilise your chemistry tys. the paper 1 was so giveaway if you understand the concepts, but not if you memorised tys answer. and it's like weird too. last time when liao wants us to hand in assignments, people starts throwing questions at her, expecting her to give us the answer. as for irene lim, seems like people are so willing to volunteer their answers. the worst was actually when someone that wasn't present for lesson the other day was able to give the correct answers. so does it actually matter which teacher it was? it shows that if that person wasn't here and he can get the correct answers, i suppose he read up on his own or maybe irene lim just hypnotised the class. it's so different right? last time liao was around, she had to wait for days to collect a single worksheet. even days after deadline, she still have to single out the students after she completed marking the work by the rest of the class. somemore, she even went to the extent of calling up students and parents. for irene lim, it certainly isn't so. it's the ATTITUDE! stop targetting at teachers' weak point lah...
and i'm also not sure if i want ms liao back. for one, if she's back to teach us chemistry, maybe the class will give her the attitude again. and then, people who dislike her will suffer in silence, which should be majority of the class?? she will have to suffer in silence too, if we give her attitude. then how can we possibly progress if everyone's suffering?
actually, ms liao isn't that bad. we shouldn't blame the teacher for failing any examinations or tests lah. it's injustice! i mean, so what if majority of the class failed chemistry? it doesn't prove that ms liao's lousy. like there was someone who scored A2? okay, i'll just admit it's me. and i think she helped quite alot. especially today during chemistry lesson, people were saying 'oxides, carbonates, carbon' are insoluble gases. yes, initially i have this major problem with state symbols too. but after struggling with ms liao, i got it clear and it's no longer a problem. and she also sort of made me memorise the solubility table, which was of a great help. btw, for those wondering, i don't have tuition for chemistry, so definitely, it isn't some external help. actually, i also had great problems with mole concept initially. and i was panicking that time before the common test. and i went to find ms liao, and this and that, and she made me do tys and explained this and that, i finally got it. so, it's just ATTITUDE.
for example, i failed combined humanities isn't enough to prove that ms kokila's lousy. it's all because i refuse to do her work and everytime i get away with it. also, i don't pay attention during her lesson at all. i dare say i failed because i had no interest at all!
and i used to hate physics, because i thought it was difficult and i almost wanted to give up the end of year examination for physics. but because i don't want to disappoint mdm quek further, i decided to study for it. i'm glad i passed but i know i can do better. it's because of the attitude i give her. i don't try doing her worksheets at all. i just take her for advantage, find her and ask her how to do. i slept during her lessons and i don't understand her at all. but now, when i try, i do realise i can understand her sometimes.
so... it's ATTITUDE!

time's really really passing so fast.
1 more week to go and holiday lessons will end.
it's like really really relaxing, which is something good.
but, i'm struggling to keep awake every lesson.
no matter what time i sleep, it's still the same.
shall tell my mother to make coffee for me tomorrow morning!
see if that really helps... or maybe, it's just the trauma?
i rushed off after school once again.
met my mother & brother at IMM for lunch.
then went to shop around, finally got some sweets & biscuits.
after that, my mother wanted teabreak...
she was so picky about which restaurant to go.
in the end, she went to 'streets' and keep suan-ing them cos of the poor service.
she should go vivocity instead, many cafes selling coffee.
saw liesl and mrs catherine yeo at IMM.
IMM changed quite alot, maybe cos i didn't go there for quite some time.
it's strange. IMM's so near my house, i don't like to go.
i go to places that are further away. LOL!
there's only physics homework today.
designed to train us to get A1. -quoted from mdm quek.
watch project superstar 2 last night.
had a good time laughing at the contestants.
i'm just bad and sarcastic. -.-
oh yeah, i call my brother 'pork chop'.
HAHA! he said that himself.
anyway, i was actually reading storybook during chinese lesson.
if not, i would already be asleep. =]
i really can't stand her. 1 day finish 1 lesson, and there's still time before dismissal.
how BORING! they should just let us do practice papers.
i rather do than sleep...
You need to take 2 different services to reach your destination The nearest stop is 270 m away.
Proceed to Toh Guan Road - blk 284, (Stop Number: 28641) and board service number 333.
You will travel for an estimate of 1.47 km before reaching your next stop.
Alight at Jurong Town Hall Road - jurong Town Hall, (Stop Number: 28231) which is the 3th stop to change bus.
You need to walk to Jurong Town Hall Road - opp Jurong Town Hall, (Stop Number: 28239) which is 30m away.
At Jurong Town Hall Road - opp Jurong Town Hall, (Stop Number: 28239), take service number 78.
Travel for another 1.28 km estimate before reaching your next stop.
Alight at Jurong Town Hall Road - river Valley High Sch, (Stop Number: 20259) which is the 4th stop.You have traveled for a total of 2.75 km (estimate).
End Destination: River Valley High School (Former)698 West Coast RoadSingapore 608784 Your destination is another 0.12 km from this stop.
this above journey seems to be better, and i would prefer it more. except for the fact that it's not safe to cross that road and it's like a deserted area. LOL!
176 is the easiest direct bus service. but by the time it reaches the stop near my house, i guess it would be full already, given that many people are taking 176 to school currently.
back to square 1, gonna take either 52, 183 or 105 to JE bus interchange every morning then only change bus. which will make me tired.
yesterday recess, recalled the primary school days with peifang. HAHA! back then, how mischevous i was, i really changed alot alot after entering secondary school. and i'm one lucky chap that the offence wasn't in school cockpit, at least i don't think it is. xP
before examinations, i dreamt of G scolding me for me doing badly for geography. last night, i dreamt of him commenting on how much my a maths standard have dropped. dreaming about him sure is 1 bad thing! shouldn't worry about results too much. GRR!
next year class orders are different. no more discrimination i hope?
anyway, i'm sure everyone has discriminated in one or another way before. so what's the big deal right?
i'm missing my drug!
can't stay awake during lessons...

geography was simply fun.
because it was totally lights out!
i think i like geography lessons more. because of the teacher who keeps giving stupid comments which make me laugh, and stay awake too.
and i'm so happy! this time round the physics tys mcq homework, i only got 2 or 3 questions wrong in total. it's like the 1st time i've ever mastered any physics topics so well, not even in semester 1. i'm really determined to do well for physics, because it's quite a doable subject.
human error! i know it's good that we don't let technology take over humans completely. like a good example of this is that mr G doesn't use OTAS for economics MCQ. that's a good thing, he isn't letting technology do his work. but also, there has got to be disadvantages. yes, it's human error. and to think i only realised it today. i got 5 MCQ wrong and instead of 10 marks, he put 9.
-.- but anyway, doesn't matter too much as long as my final result has gotten over that _ _ mark barrier.
YAY! no more staying-back days for this week. or perhaps 1 more for english.
i no longer dread english because it's still okay. i love summaries, so what if i'm not doing as well as before? shall really work hard for english.
anyway, i don't think that majority of the class doesn't watch television at all right? or any form of entertainment. LOL! or MAYBE everyone only studies everyday, every moment, every second.

so glad we didn't have to stay back for extra lessons today.
anyway, we were free since 1130am.
after school, i went all the way to tiong bahru plaza to meet my mother for lunch.
i was super early. so while waiting, i went to 'more than words' and i loved it.
after lunch, we proceeded to alexandra hospital to bring my brother home.
and he's gonna be on MC all the way till 15 november. more competition for computer!
i talked so much with my mother today.
at the hospital, 2 nurses thought she was a teacher. HAHA!
my mother wants me to go PJC, JJC those. -.-
and she say next time be teacher, have higher pay.
we really talked alot alot, since so long.
and sorry peifang, i won't be waiting for you after lessons tomorrow.
i'm coming home at 130pm for lunch.
just hoping latimer won't have the make-up session tomorrow.
we can finally start on human geography tomorrow!
i'm really looking forward to it, it seems so fun. LOL! i hope it really is.
starting on a new topic for chemistry tomorrow too.
sometimes, i wish holiday lessons can end slower, so i have more time to catch up with the newspaper articles and also complete the maths & chinese holiday work.
a beautiful day has passed.
looking to an even better day tomorrow!
=]
i've gotten over it.
and another has found its way to me.
