it's time to party! haha... chinese today was doable. hopefully i get a pass for this to make up for the lack of studying for all subs. the hall's so cool man! i'm weird i know... but i imagined the time when i would be taking 'a' levels in mjc next year. it will be cool, unlike the hot and unbearable tk school hall. sucks man! so rich already leh tk, yet the principal spends it on useless stuff like the pagoda and tv in the canteen. sorry... was digressing again. i seem to do that very often now. anyway, instead of panicking and perspiring in the hall, i was somewhat shivering towards the end of the listening compre paper just now. but who cares now. it's time to relax for five days before the official school term starts on wednesday. wait a min, i think i've sealed my fate. maths, chem, physics & econs were all killer papers. and i didn't have the time to study. poor time management man! come back from mjcsb, and i fall asleep. so tired. so ya, i think i shall wait for the invitation to ms lai's office not that i want it to happen. but i think i'll do badly this time. sigh... other than seeing mrs chan in sec 4 over a complaint by my mother, i've not seen the principal over my results or anything. this may be the first time and i'm not happy about it. arrggg! it's inevitable! so ya... the chem department had to dampen our moods by having extra chemistry lecture right after chinese exams. whilst the other students could go home, u had to see chem students dragging their feet to the lecture theatres, awaiting the long and dreary lecture over the mid year questions. and yes, ms sharon lim (i called her sharon au the last time and she looked at me!!! so funny) went thru section c of the mid year paper. i know i got the first part right with 91.1% for percentage of volume. that's all i recall cos that was the only one i could do... sigh. i have to admit, JC chem and all the other subjects are freaking tough. even my frequent messaging with mr tan kee hoe also supports that. he says he does not want to teach chem in JC cos of the stress. he says it's too heavy for him. haha... after the whole lecture, i ran out of the LT to realise that the whole gang were in the library playing some funny platypus game. funny sae! the platypus always kena flushed out of the pipes... something like the nursery rhyme about the spider climbing up the pipe lah. haha.. forgot the word. after that, we went all the way to parkway where we went for about an hour or so of pool session. and ya, paired up with candice against chanlun & melissa. so ya, we won all four games. poor peeps... melissa just too short. sorry girl! during that period, i was having headache and popped two panadols. after that, went to candice's house with takwai too, to watch scary movie 4 (which wasn't very scary, instead hilarious!) and garfield 2. i think garfield and prince equally cute... haha... i love odie! odie's so cute!!!  my dream house... very nice hor??? four floors leh... the first floor will be the living room area and the dining area and my parents' bedroom. second floor... family room where my parents, brother, me & all my friends can come over to watch movies. third floor... my room & my brother's room. fourth floor which is the best part... barbeque pit and star-gazing area. oh ya, i want to have a pool table in future so that i dun have to waste so much money going to play pool. dream... tmr's my rest day... haven't decided what to do yet. shld be going out somewhere. tk especially since james asked me down. hopefully, there will be tickets for the SYF. and i will be meeting up with daryl, hopefully to collect the digital cam. yup yup, that's about it. i'm planning to slack and sleep in late. is this long enough??? i'm bored... continue!!! shall go sleep after this.

what were you doing in secondary school? lemme think. i was rather upset that i didn't get into temasek secondary. cos my cousin was there... and i wanted to join the school because they had bowling. but thinking back over the years... i'm glad i didn't get into the school. ask me why if u want to know... dun want to offend any race here. ya... sec 1. i was just another blur kid in school. plump and short... during cca recruitment, was so mesmerised by the band. the band was just so cool... marching and playing music. at that point, i had made up my mind to join band. die die also had to join band. so yup... ended up in band after i went around school begging miss choi (then cca in charge). i was originally posted to scouts of which i had no interest in cos i thought all they did was tie knots after knots... sorry zukai! was rather enthusiastic in sec 1. turned up for all band practices... :) wanted to be in the main band, but got put into auxillary. yah... i remembered showing some attitude towards kexin. was quite dark in sec 1 cause i was constantly in the sun. and during SYF opening ceremony, tk band won the best display band and marco won the best drum major. yup...those days... was also part of a great class. 2g. didn't try to know my class better till i reached sec 2. met my best friend, andrew soetiono. my confidante and phone buddy. he made sure i understood my maths and science. goodness, i wouldn't have been able to go through 4 years of secondary school education without him man! he's the best! the things i remembered in sec 2 were the recess times where a whole group of us would sit behind the canteen eating and eating. haha... andrew, me, audrey, andrea, huiying & stanley along with others. we always went home together on the bus. stanley would irritate me by scratching me with a sharp $2. haha... and i used to call him irritant! brandon and xiufu always argued with mrs tey about the correct science answers. band turned into indoor. noah's ark was a joy to play. i loved playing the running notes. sitting beside hidayah and shazana. got gold and everyone cried at vch. :) sec 3... got into 3f. somehow didn't like my class initially cos there was ben quek in it. i felt my life was very miserable to have him as a classmate for 4 years. andrew and i got split... he went to the triple science class. me... combined science. sad i know. but got to know sally, anisa, christine, shuuji & zukai. they were insane people who made me laugh all the time. there were a lot of scandals in my upper secondary years. christine and shuuji loved my bro. anisa kept fantasizing about chunky monkey. sally was always speaking about tchen, orlando bloom and tay ping hui... changtat & ian. aiya... she loves all the hot guys and cute little boys. band was back to outdoor again. was put into the block this time... on shazana's side along with roharjo, romario, gary. we just stood in the sun singing gulliver's travels to irritate shazana. you would then see her chasing all of us around the field. i was band crazy... at every possible time, i would be humming the whole band repertoire. from lord of the rings to lord of the dance. once again, we clinched the best display band which earned us the title of immortals. :) sally and the rest turned up at the stadium to cheer for christine & me. awww... so touched! concert was a blast! we played so many nice pieces. played three solos for firestorm, disney medley & pirates of the caribbean. sally pissed me off cos she didn't hear me play her pirates solo... u'll never be forgiven.. haha! somehow, because i was always eating and was so quiet, i was named the whale. what the heck! oh well... we always went to parkway after school for those two years. during my sec 4 year, i remembered starting my revision in january whilst shuuji they all started after the prelims. kiasu lah... and i've finally gotten my results back. the most memorable thing was getting to know to many godsiblings in tk... esp the band. mr tan kee hoe will never be forgotten. i called him all the time to clarify chemistry stuff... thannks mr tan! five of your favourite singers/bands? clay aiken carrie underwood westlife hillsongs diana degarmo five things you would do if you were a millionaire? splurge on my wants buy a clarinet made of gold buy a huge bungalow and have my close friends over for parties buy my parents a house for themselves keep the rest in the bank... $$$ five bad habits: procastinating... like now cos i'm supposed to be studying calling my maid by hp just to ask her for a drink from the kitchen hiding behind my room doors playing gameboy constantly drawing money out of my bank account when i'm not supposed to extorting money from my older brother... $$$ five things you like doing: lying on my bed doing nothing talking on the phone to andrew for hours singing at the top of my voice all the time buying dvds and watching it at home... saves money! blowing the clarinet towards the girls' school when their trumpet sounds irk me, so as to irritate them five things you will never wear, buy or get: cigarettes another best friend pink tee shirts... yucks! purple paint to do my room... yucks! body piercings five favourite things: can my dearest sister be counted???

KL was fine... didn't get to do much shopping cos the trip was just too short. we had planned to go to malacca for the second part of our trip, but it was cancelled cos there was some mishaps. so ya... was supposed to return today evening, but the trip got cut short to saturday and everyone returned yesterday. sigh... i feel so moody lah. went there on wednesday. didn't do much in the car. just slept and slept. it was quite hard to reach the parkroyal hotel. the traffic in KL was so bad! if we missed the turn, we had to go about 2 km down before there was a U-turn sign. stupid KL. arrggg... however, we still reached the place. parkroyal is a 5 star hotel by the way. checked in at around 5 plus and went to our room. room no... 906. type... junior suite! it was uberly nice! the room was huge... very grand!  doorway  couch area  bed... BIG!  tv area didn't manage to take a picture of the bathtub and shower area... haha. but it was huge too. the meals there were all very nice. had lots of them... i think i put on weight. breakfast and lunch was catered for in the hotel cafe. dinner was free and easy. went for supper with my parents at the roadside stalls and had hokkien mee & beef hor fun. *yum yum* shopping wise... didn't buy much except for a nautica teeshirt. blue colour again. got nagged by my mother for buying a dark blue tee again... cos she said i had so many black and blue tees in my wardrobe. but who cares, i love these two colours. the teeshirt is nice! bought it at KLCC. my relatives came to meet us and went shopping with us. i got treated many times this trip. my aunt & uncle treated me to sushi. i would have eaten more had i been hungry. sessions were spiritually reviving. it was basically about seeking God and finding him. the trip back to singapore was thrilling... had to sit with uncle peter in his toyota sports car. cool man... on the highway, he went at 170km/h. EXTREME SPEEDING!!! shall not elaborate already... missing that stupid pig! shall go have lunch. till next time, forgotten. manddaw
