Movie marathon! (: Yes, I like to watch movies on Friday nights at home! I think that's an uber fantastic way to usher in my weekend! (: Oh, last week's movie was
Lizzie McGuire: The Movie. Yes, it's old, but I like it. I'm a sentimentalist. Tonight's movies are;
The Golden Compass & Coach Carter. The latter, I have yet to watch it tonight. It's on the list, though. I'm going to watch Coach Carter after I'm done updating this blog of mine. (: I've actually watched it in school before, it's so nice & so darn touching. So, I'm watching it again. Just so you know, I dislike watching any movies more than trice. I know I'm peculiar. That's the way I like it. (:
Off to watch Coach Carter, yeah! (:
Happy weekend !

Today is Nanny's two- year anniversary. Well, it's been two years since Nan's passed away. I still feel sad, whenever I think about her. I think Granddad misses her dearly. Actually, everyone I know really misses her dearly. I miss her. Life has to go on, though. Granddad's still mourning over his loss. Obviously, they've been together for more six decades. That's longer than any grandparents' marriage that I know. Come on!
Love at first sight, for them. If you'd hear how Granddad reminisces about their marriage & how they knew each other, it was a marvel itself. It's amazing how they could've found love at such a young age. Now, you can hardly find people who experiences love at first sight & still love each other for more than five decades. Now, marrying at a young age is so
taboo. Even my parents have yet to reach the three decade mark. Oh well.
I miss Nan. (:POA class test was confusingly hard. Honestly. You'd think that it's just calculation & a little bit of math, but it isn't. It's
English + Math + Theory rolled into one. Well, hopefully I'll pass. I'm going to ace every subject that I'm taking this year, except for Math, maybe.
Mark my words, people! (: Happy weekend, finally!

This is going to be a quickie because, my homework is finally piling up. Oh man! Well, I've finally seen S' friendster profile. (:
Can't say much, so I'll say nothing regarding that. My Math teacher finally blew her top at us. I think, it's better that we self- study because the class seems so much quieter that way. Oh well.. My English class test, paper 2 is tomorrow!
Hopefully, it's raining tomorrow. Cause I don't want to do PE. I've been freezing in school. Honestly. I thought that my fingers were going to drop off anytime soon. (: Wouldn't it be cool to see that happen? I mean, except for the fact that you cannot hold/ grab things properly & that it'll hurt once your body temperature is back to normal. Okay, this sounds twisted. Sounds so sadistic too. So, I shall stop & start doing my homework. (:
God bless me. Did I tell you, I passed my
Economics Paper! (: Let's hope I pass this English class test too. Oh, it's better & easier for me to say that I hope that I'll pass all my papers with
FLYING COLOURS! (:

Notice you, noticing me! (: That girl is so DANGEROUS! Start laughing now. Cause the song is pretty ridiculous. I don't really know why I bother listening to it. Well, this is weird because I don't really like to listen to Hip-Hop/Rap. Oh well. It's better compared to listening to
whatchamacallit?... Vanessa Hudgens. Really! Ok, let's not get too deep in this topic because it's
to each it's own. OMGosh! There is no
'Whose Line Is It Anyway' tonight. How unbelievable! It's currently replaced by back-to-back 'House' episodes. Don't get me wrong, I like 'House'. It's just that when it overlaps one of my all time favourite TV shows, then would I get irate. (:

Heyho! (: All right, my Malay Oral was as bad as an unlucky day. Honestly! I freaked out & cried! I mean, I didn't cry in front of the oral examiners. Just in front of my mates. I mean, they (my Malay mates) were all waiting for each other. Anyway, it was fast because there was only 6 of us taking Malay in the whole level. Still. So I was the second- last person. Started freakin' out because I didn't know the word
boros. I now forgot what the meaning was. Yeah, I crapped all the way. OMGosh! I have never been so despondent just cause of Oral. Urghhh! Someone do something to make me feel better! Our oral was held at DSS. Go figure. It was easy to get there because a few of them knew how to get there. I think the school is artistic. We were greeted by much of the students' artwork. Some very impressive. Others kinda normal. Who's to say right?
Art is personal. I'm all right now. (: God! I don't even think I'll get a
Distinction for that. Maybe just a
Merit. I cried once I saw a familiar face outside of the school. Oh, I was filled with much panic & stress. I broke down.
HAH! (: Now, it's kinda weird that I cried. Though I still feel what I felt just now. (: Well, it's over and done with. Nothing much I can do about it. It'll take a while for me to mentally recover. Still, there's the weekend to look forward too! (:

My weekend came & went in a snap! Really. Nothing much happened. I mean, I didn't really want anything to happen because firstly, I wasn't feeling that well to begin with. Secondly, my mind was de-stressing itself. It's all because of English Oral. B
elieve me when I say that oral has a lot more impact on your mind than most of the school's activities. Honestly. So much has changed within this week. Okay, so indirectly it's only the second day of the school week. Sorry to burst your bubble, my school had an extended weekend. (: Still, I'm farther apart to my friends. I'm closer to people who not only used to be my friend, but also people whom I wouldn't even think that I'd be friends with. The irony of it all, really.
Tuesday was a last minute Photo-taking session. Honestly. We (the class) wanted to wait until our co-form teacher gets back from his re- service, but the hired company was insistent that we take our class photo on that day itself. I was
damn right pissed. When it came to group photos, we weren't even allowed to choose who we wanted to take pictures with. It was that sick. Oh well. Still, it wasn't complete w/o
HIM (co-form).
Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love you tomorrow.. The school will be extending our curriculum time just because we're having a movie screening. How incompetent! This year is crap compared to last, where we went to cinemas in Orchard to actually watch the movies. I wonder what movie they'll be showing this year that cannot be watched outside. Oh the rage.
I've got much homework to do. It's really beginning to pile up. Oh well, I'll do it all tonight, then. OMGosh! Malay Oral is coming! The day after tomorrow. OMGosh! I guess, it's doomsday. Just like the movie, 'Day after tomorrow' or something like that. (: Shucks. I don't really know how to mentally prepare myself. OMGosh. I'm getting complacent. Honestly, it's really bad. I drives me crazy that I'm behaving like this. I failed my SS class test, for the first time since Secondary three. It's that bad. Really bad. Worse than bad. It's beyond me. The funniest thing is, I'm the one controlling it. Oh, the pressure. I should probably stop now. Seeing that I've got much homework to be completed by tonight. Especially SS & POA & lemme see.. Math! (:
The Bride Stripped Bare, is a damn hot book. Should read it. (:

Since there's lack of one post for this week, I'm doing it
NOW! Okay.. By now, you people should know that I'll only update my blog on a Friday. Well, most Fridays, at least. Maybe along the week too. Though a solid timing for me to update my blog is on Friday. Should be looking forward to it. So, I'm dying to chat with S. Really. He had to run off because he has tuition. He's the
'teacher'. Don't know whether he's good, even though he says he is. That's a
biased opinion, so it's not really counted. (:
| 8:58 PM |
Oooooooohhhhhhhh yeah! (: English oral went fairly well. It started off quite bad, actually. When I got the point A, I looked at the passage & was like, "Now, what is the topic going to be?" I hadn't a clue, until I turned over & saw the picture. Oh it started rocky with me talking by myself. After 10 minutes was up, I sauntered to point B. It was then that the 2 lady examiners called me. Well, I was actually hoping to calm myself down before proceeding to point C (the examiners). Too bad, I guess. I greeted them, smiled at them, even asked them if I could take a sit. Boy was it scary. They weren't really scary. Just the thought that they're that close to you freaked me out. (:
I was the second person that day. Before that, my group were like,
"Okay, signal this & this for easy/fine/hard." Then Z was like,
"Okay, later signal 1,2,3 or 5 for each of the topics." hilarious! (: When I got to point A, I was signalling to them that it was hard. Then I was signalling the number with my fingers. Before me, M was the first then she was holding the picture up high. One of the teachers told her to put it down. Then the teacher came & told us that we're not supposed to do that because the examiners would think that we're playing a fool. As if! I totally didn't see M signal to us that the oral was okay-okay. So sorry, M!
The examiners were fine. They're all right. Both Chinese. Both quite young. Oh, I think my reading was kinda screwed up cause I repeated the words once or twice. Oh.. I'm so scared, actually. My worries faded when I got to point C because they (the examiners) were really friendly. The picture discussion, hopefully pulled up my marks. The conversation was good. I kept eye contact with both the examiners. So, overall, I did fairly fine. I hope I get more than 33/40, that's my aim. (: Wish me all the best. Keep your fingers tightly crossed. (:
We've got no school on Monday. A relief! Though, there
is much homework to be done, as usual. Why am I
not surprised? Just as well, really. Prelim's coming, at the end of this month. Well, I don't really have to look/ wait
that far to see the N' levels' coming. Next Friday is my (drum-roll, please) Malay oral! Now, that's the one that'll get me shaking to the very bones of my being. My Malay is kinda mediocre. Even though it's mediocre, I'll be aiming for a grade 2 for my N' levels. If not, I'll got hang myself (not!).
All right, enough about school. Let's talk friends. Let me see.. I'm not close to either E nor K. I don't think I'll be. I don't really mind. Only the fact that it's obvious we're not close to begin with. There're many reasons as to why I'm not close to them. First, being family. Second, moral value. They go out loads. That, I don't mind missing. They don't seem to be interested in school at all. It's a wonder why they even show up in school. Hardly comes to school. Don't really know why. Well, I won't really go in depth because it's not for you readers to know, unless I post so. (:

OhmyGosh! I didn't know I have loads of homework to do. OH! Darn those teachers. I'm confused because everyone's just as clueless as me. I think we're supposed to do the Malay karangan on foolscap. Then, I thought we're supposed to do all of the SS questions. OMGosh! I asked anyone online that's in my class. Apparently, they're just as clueless as me. I assume that's supposed to make me feel less scared? Don't really know. Oh, I miss chatting with S. Really! Oh well.
Mum's dental appointment was fast. We were late. Because of yours truly! (: What? She woke me up in the nick of time. Honestly! She should've known better than to wake me up just in the nick of time. She was kinda pissed off with me. Can't help it if I was late or slow. The dental appointment was at Toa Payoh. While waiting for the Antibiotic to digest?, Mum & I went about exploring the place. It's as old as my Great Grandfather. The place. (; Even though it's old, it's kinda a nice place to explore. Oh we went to the library & I must say, I'm impressed. Highly impressed. There's so much more variety of books. So much more places to sit & study. OMGosh! I want to go there again!
After borrowing, Mum & I went to Delifrance. Mum was pissed because there was no one serving us. Only this ancient lady. She wasn't even paying attention to anyone. All she cared was about serving the food. I was pissed too. Oh well. Then Mum went to the person in- charge. She apologised incessantly. Mum actually wanted to walk out of that place. Guess she was too patient. So, we ended up eating our lunch there. Oh, by the way, it was raining cats & dogs! That was the first time I ordered something so health in my view. I ordered Seafood D'sire. The sandwich was Ciabata. Oh, well. My first try wasn't all that horrendous. It actually tasted good. (:
Today, I'm fasting. Well, I almost forgot that I was fasting when I got up. II almost went to the kitchen to get something to eat. Thank God for sisters. Oh, that reminds me that I have to remind Auds to bring her thermometer to school tomorrow. Oh, Youth Day isn't all that it's made up to be. Oh, well.. (:
Back to homework before the teachers scream at me for being lazy. I'm so guilty of that, being lazy. (:

Physics test today was challenging. I didn't even study for it, mind you. Well, even studying it wouldn't help because of the graph. Yes, I dislike graph reading. Especially in Physics & Mathematics. Well, those are actually the only 2 subjects where graph are usually used. It's over 15 marks. Let's see how well/ bad I did. (:

YAY! Friday, baby! Happy Fourth of July!
This year's Youth Day performance was such a flop. I think I want to stick to last year's performance where the teachers put an item or two for us. It's better. It's more organised. Definitely better than today's celebration. Not much buzz as compared to the previous years. Sad! So, it's going to be an extra day off for us, because we're youths! Thank God for that. I won't really have the Monday blues so early, then. Which is a comfort, really. I dislike everything about today's performance. I'm so sorry for that. Oh well..
Our school's PA Crew is pathetic! Like really pathetic. I think, even my primary school's PA Crew were much more better/ professional as compared to my secondary school's. And they say that experience comes with age! Gosh! Maybe the crew's just dumb. There's a high possibility that they are. You never really know. (:
Since it's a 'long' weekend, the teachers have deprived us of celebrating our youth. They've given us.. guess? HOMEWORK! Yes, that's like their prized present from them to us! WOW! I'm so excited! Not! Do these sadistic teachers lead tormenting childhood? I think some do, some don't. Hard so say, really. Because teachers are taught to be strong & composed, so it's hard.
Weeeelll, my form teacher is going off for 2 weeks because of his NS- reservice. I hope I got that right, or it'd be so embarrassing. (;
Oh, well. Tomorrow, Mum's getting her something done. I don't really know what it is. Though it's something got to do with her teeth & the dental. Oh, yes, I remember. Mum's going to have a dental surgery. Sounds oddly normal. (:
Well, hope she doesn't suffer from a swollen cheek after that or it'll look like she was punched in the face.
Jordin Spark - One step at a time is pleasant to listen to. (:
Addam Family is going for their hols in Europe. I'm so dead jealous of them. Deadly jealous. It's one of the 7 sins. All right, since I just did a sin, I shall undo it. I'm happy for the Addam Family. Maybe it's their good fortune. Eventually, by God's will, I'll succeed in whatever/ anything I do. That, will be my good fortune. (:

BOOYA! Tomorrow is Friday! Fridays are my favourite days! (:
Oh, there's also a very exciting performance for tomorrow's Youth Day Celebration. Too bad there's Physics class test. All right, I'm currently listening to Goo Goo Dolls' - Better Days. I know it's an old song, but I love it so much. (:
"Cause everyone's forgiven now!" (: Going to be short, because I'm going to study for Physics test! Wish me best of luck! (:

OMGosh! I'm supposed to be doing my testimonial. Riiiiiggghhhttt! I don't know what to write about myself. OMGosh! Who'd knew this was going to be hard? Physics class test is postponed to Friday. Youth Day is coming. I don't really know what's the deal. OMGsoh! So, I'm supposed to be doing my testimonial, my POA homework & studying for Physics. Well, so much for that. (:
I'm listening to Michael Johns - A Day In Life. I only like the, "I love to turn you on." part. It's so weirdly nice! All right, obviously that's not the word to describe something that's turning on. (: I don't really know if I'm making sense at all.
Last two periods were 'free' for my class, because my Chemistry teacher wasn't around. The days are just getting closer to Preliminary & N' levels. Oh, and my orals too! Great! I'm going to be prepared & ready soon enough. Only I don't really know if it's enough or not. Too complicated, right? I tried the Probability questions from HeyMath! & they were really testing my capability of my knowledge of that topic. All right, it's hard.. Ok? Social Studies June Online Test results were posted online & guess what? My results were pathetic to say the least. Like for real, it's crap! I'll never hear the end of this from my ever- competitive classmates. OMGosh! Embarrassment, no? Math is an ever- challenging subject because my math teacher is losing the fight of the loudest voice. Too bad. I'm willing to study my math like hell. God, help me! (:
