| It's been a reallyreallyreally crazy week, with tests, studying, preparing for camp, and finally SA Camp, but I can say that it's been one of the most enjoyable weeks this year. Crazy, hectic but yet fun, because of the people you spend the week with.
Monday was pretty bearable, omg just that we had 2.4, crazy tiring. I should go run more. Haha :D So we survived thatttt, lol, and then nothing much, school, home, then Yen's at night. Whoosh. Bearable day.
Tuesday was crazier, had Bio Science Practical, and Chinese Test. We have one Chinese Test every week that it makes me so sian already, -.- It's almost the same thing every week, just alternating between Paper 2 Tests and Paper 1 Tests. Annoying much. But I guess it's for our own good, cos Chinese O's are in April or May. O: Anyway, Bio SPA was alright I guess. Do-able. Was panicking with the rest before it, cos we didn't know the experimental error etc, hehe :D But it turned out okay, though I think I got my answer wrong, dang. Had to rush out Self Awareness Camp Booklet, it was pretty, but I took most of the Chiangrai booklet stuff, hehe :D
Wednesday was crazy too, was supposed to have two tests today but one got moved to Thursday. O: Anyway, yea Add Math Test, didn't finish cos Mr Ragu called me out in the middle of my test so around 5min was gone, and that was all I needed to finish, but ohwell. It's not like he knew till I told him. Haha. Chinese Tuition almost right after school. Was super tired, kept yawning. But I survived. Omg, and at night, guess who called me, guess who called me, guess who called me :D NUTTHAWUT, my buddy from Chiangrai, it made my night, day, week, month whatever. Didn't recognise who he was at first but it turned out fine, just that maybe he disconnected ): Aw man. But it was good :) Oh and Chem Tuition was cancelled cos my tutor was sick, if not it would have been crazier.
Thursday was crazy day, like really. Had two tests, and they weren't like the simple okay can one. E Math and Lit Unseen Test. E Math couldn't finish, cos we had to draw like idk how many graphs, dang. But ohwell, it's overrrrr. Ended the school day off with Lit Unseen Test, got totally random poem and prose, chose prose in the end, which was basically ALL exaggeration. So yea, didn't have much to say about it, don't think I'll do that great, dang. Then lunch-ed with Joan etc. Waited for Sab, and then went to her place. She got her photos for SA Camp thing, and then we Band Hero-ed till her tutor came, that girl forgot she had tuition. Lol. We almost left the house, thank God. So waited for her for 1.5 hours and then she came to my house, and waited for me to change etc. Then went to meet Mel Ng at Junction8, Lin, Joan and Mel Lee came laterrrr. Went to the BIG Pasar Malam next to my place, which honestly had nothing. So we just walked around a bit, ate and then we went to NTUC to buy stuff for SA Camp. Spammed like idk how much food etc and I spent like idk how much money and I'm gonna claim it back from Em :D Got home at about 10, totally shag and packed for SA Camp and then sleeeep :D
Friday, SA CAMP! :D Dad sent me to school, cos I had the sparkling juice etc. Reached school early, met Cherie at gallery steps and waited for Mr Ragu to come so we could dump stuff in his car, hehe :D He came in the end and then put the stuff in his car and went to get my class shirtt. It was huge O: Changed and got shirt for Sabz, went around stoning for a bit, and then assembly. We left after assembly, and we heard some news, sad news, which I shan't mention here, brought down the mood a bit ): The rest of the class was singing like crazy but me and Cherie got a bit sian after a while, so I napped. Took super long to get there, Jurong West. And when we finally did, we got assigned our dorms, room-ed with Cherie, Lin and Jellz :D So went up packed stuff and just got settled in. Then went down for our ice breaker game, 5 Elements or something, chose Wind. Then Mr Ragu gave us a break, went up to room and stoned a bit. Then first sesson, the Photo Language. Really emotional session and all of us poured our hearts out about life, family etc. I learnt so much about everyone and it taught me to never judge someone by their outside, cos there is so much more inside to look out for. We all cried like crazy, for 3 straight hours, but I guess it's better now, cos we all understand each other much better. Then we were given a break, and then lunch. Lunch was good, really, had like 4packs of chilli, everyone thought I was crazy. Haha, but the chilli was heavenly okay, hehe :D After lunch was break, and then games, we had Project Runway with the theme of Favourite Teacher, seriously, the funniest thing ever. Had a great time. Then we had mass prep and mass after that. It was pretty alright. Then the Rough Diamond session, where we learnt even more about each other, our aspirations etc. It wasn't as emotional (: Then we went off to dinner, dinner was good too, another 4 packets of chilli, hehe :D Then we had a break, stoned in room, and then Affirmation, we all were asked to affirm each other of things, and then light a tea light for each other, and then give the crystal that Mr Ragu bought for us to the person who you picked out. Clare affirmed me and I affirmed Mingen, and I honestly think God was around in the room, He really handpicked who to affirm who, and it was really amazing. God works in so many ways. Pretty emotional and touching moment for some of us and aww (: Had our crazy party session where all danced and sung till now my calf is aching dang badly, haha. Lin, Jell and I left early to go bathe, to avoid the crowd, oosh, cold water but it was good (: Then we were given our own free time to do whatever we wanted, camwhored in the room, talked for a bit and went to visit Ms Tan and talked somemore, loved it (: Then slept around 12ish.
Woke up at 7, Lin was whining a lot about how early it was and how she wanted to sleep more, finally got up and got ready. Breakfast was just all bread and milo. Wasn't as good ): Haha but better than nothing. Then we had Class Banner, where we split into 4 groups and made 4 different banners for our class, for motivation etc. Pretty cool (: We then cleaned up the place and then had the Class Toast. Where we all drank sparkling juice to celebrate and toasted the whole class (: Then we broke camp and went to wait for the bus. Slept throughout the trip back, and got back around 12. Waited with Joan, Lin for their parents, and I just didn't feel like moving, haha. So helped Joan with her keyboard and finally left around 12:30. Got home around 1ish. Been stoning around since.
Had a really great time at Self Awareness Camp, thanks everyone in 4/5 for making it a blast! Love you guys to the maxxx :D
Worship Pract in 10minutes! Church is my happy place <3

| The week's been less hectic I guess, there's been chances to rest and to just get away from the crazy life that we're all going through everyday. It's been a pretty awesome week actually. Starting with Monday missing a whole hour of Bio for Health Screening, haha :D And tuesday was pretty dang awesome, despite, 2 crazy tests, chem and chinese, we gave Clarice her surprise party and her decoy present, and she was really truly surprised (you can tell, when she really literally dropped everything she's holding and started jumping up and down), and it was really awesome to make her sixteenth such an awesome one for her. Planned it with her mum etc beforehand, and despite it being pretty stressful for Joan sometimes, due to little things, it all went really well in the end. And her brother is the cutest thing ever, haha :D We had thanksgiving mass too, (: Wednesday was pretty dang crazy, two tuitions in a row, chinese and then chem, didn't get to eat dinner or much of lunch, but I guess it was alright. Thursday was the only sane and good day I got, despite having a short lit test, haha, after school was spent with Lin and Jellz, went to lunch at Macs and talked about stuff, it was fun (: Friday was alright too, ended school at 1:30 and walked to bus stop with Clarice and Sab, got home early, tv and comp till night where we dapao-ed food home. Haha. The week was alright, despite quite a bit of homework over the weekend. (:
Weekend was good as usual, Saturday, grocery shopping with mum, went to see my family doctor cos of some immunization that I didn't take. I've been unprotected against Polio for 4 years O: Lol, but the doctor said I'm alright. Getting the immunization sometime soon. Then came back and stoned a bit till I had to go to church to do the cny decos, it was fun too, with the retarded people like yongcai and ian there, haha (: We rearranged the youth centre and hung up some decos. After that was family time, sent youngest sister to violin lessons while the rest of us went to the pasar malams in tp, walked around for a bit and picked her up, went to get my new specs at thomson (: Got the new specs and the rest of family got their eye checks, dad got new specs and then we had dinner at the food court. Lost my retainers ): Almost lost my old glasses and the box, but thank God my mum kept them. Went back to look for them, but they were gone, ohwell ): Lesson learnt, I should bring my box out next time, and remember to take the box also. -.- I must be the most noob person ever, sigh. Will have to get replacements, was pretty sulky the rest of the night but I got over it, ohwell. Today was spent at church as usual, Gerard kept poking fun at the fact that I managed to lose my retainers, haha. But ohwell, worship was good, sermon was alright. Then had bible study etc, and it was fun. Celebrated Jiaen's birthday after that and Tabby wrote a song for her, really touching, almost cried too. I wish I had a friend that'd write a song for me on my sweet sixteenth, haha. Then had cake etc, and hitched ride along with Moses, El and Kes, in Gerard's car to Junction8 for lunch at the Wanchai Cafe, wanton mee with crazy chilli, I likeeee. Hehe. Milk Tea was awesome, and we talked over stuff during lunch. Hitched ride back with Gerard and reached home at 2:45. Been trying to do my work ever since, but I don't understand geog, help ):
I should really try to finish geog now, haha :)

| Whooosh, it's been a good weekend, a great time of rest and relaxation, and a awesome fellowship at church. Yesterday was spent basically with family, as usual. Morning up at around 10:30, and then washed up, grocery shopping with my mum. Breakfast and all. Then home-ed and stoned, stoned, stoned, stoned, stoned, haha. Then went to the optician at night, got a new pair of specs! (: But collecting only next Saturday, they're awesome okay, lovelovelove :D Black and orange, I didn't expect myself to actually look pretty good with black, haha, depends on the frame I guess.
 
Almost got another pair that was pretty awesome too, black and little flowery stuffz at the side, and you could kinda change the arms, to different colours? It was pretty dang cool, but the frame was a little tad small for my eyes, I got long eyes, haha :D Yea anyway, love them to the max :D And my degree didn't change much, my left eye's degree went down by 25 :D Haha, something to do with the muscles being less tense, haha.
Well, today was spent at church, sat with my parents half and with the rest half. It was pretty cool, the sermon and all. Really young pastor. Sermon was on Favoritism or how I like to be biasness, or discrimination, or prejudice. Whatever, haha. So yea, basically it was about ostracizing the poor and treating the rich with better care, and how God dislikes such behavior, it really made me reflect about how I treat people sometimes, how I treat some way nicer, and some others much worse, it made me feel really bad about how I treated those people, and I guess I will repent, and change my ways, because everyone is specially handmade by God, and everyone has a purpose, no matter the status, class or race. And then Moses Lai that nooob, kept mentioning about how we Singaporeans treat the Indian Immigrants who come to work here in Singapore, and basically those foreign workers. Though it got a tad irritating with him constantly mentioning, but I guess it got stuck in my head, and it is true, we really do treat them pretty badly, the thing that first comes into our minds when we think about them, is that they can't be any good. It's just like, To Kill A Mockingbird, how the blacks are thoroughly ostracized and looked down upon, and it is really sad. Though it might be not be as major as in Maycomb in TKAM, but it is still existent. And I guess it is true that we should really treat them with more respect, because they do nothing but actually work for us, like they are the ones that build most of our HDBs or at least work in them. Sigh. But it won't be easy, cos we all already have that previously conceived thought in our minds, and I guess we all have to work on it. But with God's guidance and wisdom, I'm sure we all can (:
Well, I should go start studying chem, and emath, chinese, aiya don't care, haha :D

| It's been a really hectic week and sometimes it gets so hard to breathe in the midst of it all, tests, homework, studying, cca, whatever. Everything's just making me go so crazy sometimes, and it's hard to come back to where you first started, calm and cool. It's hard to find a good night's rest nowadays, without thinking about the tests coming the next day, the homework that you're gonna get tomorrow, the stuff you didn't get to study, everything just haunts you, whether you're awake or asleep. It's gonna go on for probably the whole year and I wonder how I'll deal with it when everything is just right in front of me, like an hour before the paper or something, I'll probably freak out and faint la (okay I hope not, I'll kill myself if I do). It's pretty dang crazy this whole year, having to rush out learning what we learnt last year, in 6 months, and 4 months of intense revision and crazy mugging. It'll take such a toll on me someday, and I'll burn out, and I'll probably go crazy, and I don't wanna see that day coming, but it will hm? I would love to say that I won't burn out, but sometimes we think, do we actually have a choice? You wanna do well, you want that single digit, you want that 6, you gotta work for it. I've been slackening so much, since the first week, where I was really solid, come back, study study study till 12 or 1. This week, I come back, watch tv, slack a bit, then mug maybe till 11 or 12. I need to get back to that crazy solid studying, though it'll probably end up killing me, but if that'll produce results, I'll do it. I want that single digit, I want to get into ACJC, I want that hybrid stream, and all that requires work, and I don't care if I burn out, I'll just cool for a bit and then start all over, it's the way life is, you make mistakes, you fall, you pick yourself up and just start again. There's no real choice, unless you wanna be a total loser in your life. I'm coming down with a flu, and it's not a good sign, but yea. Been falling asleep in English, the slackest period of all, where almost nothing is done. Sigh, it's my only saving grace in the day, what helps me to survive. 5-6 hours a day, and then maybe 20mins in the morning in the bus, and maybe a bit in English, I'm gonna kill myself sooner or later, but do I really have a choice?
At least there's church to look forward to tomorrow, (:

| It's been yet another refreshing and fun filled day at church, with service to start off, fellowship lunch and then family day (though not really cos it was 99% youths), haha, it was fun nonetheless. I didn't listen much during sermon today, was busy writing birthday cards and basically just stoning, should have listened, dang, but I guess I did catch the main point, which is, Be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to anger. I guess it's really pretty dang hard to apply that in real life, since most of the time, you just say what comes straight to your mind, and no one really does think hard before saying things. It's human nature I guess, but sometimes, Christianity is all about going against the human nature, and doing what God wants us to do, To follow His Word. It's hard being a Christian, hard to follow His Word. Cos there are just so many other earthly things that we would rather do. And doing the right things, doesn't always give you the result you want. Especially when it means giving up something you have come to love, treasure and care about. Like let's say a family member, a pet, a best friend, or just basically a loved one. It's hard to give up that person, if that's what God wants you to do. But I guess that we just have to learn how to trust that God has a plan for us, that He will guide us through, and that everything he puts/gives us in our lives, has a purpose. Be it parents, friends, or just people. It's hard to do a lot of things that God asks us to do, but I guess if we do it, there'll ultimately be a greater purpose, a greater reward. Ohwell. The games were cool, Captain's Ball ftw, haha. Though I'm pretty dang sure that I'll get pretty bad muscle aches tomorrow, especially in my shoulder and arms. Omg like how I got them last time from the crazy pe session last week. Ohgosh. Hope it'll get better. My feet are aching pretty bad, jumped quite a bit today. Haha. Did quite a bit of ball passing with Jiaen, El and Gerard. Haha. I'm strong hm :) Go me. Whoooosh, hard throws manz. That's about it, it was fun spending time with church people, as usual. Refreshing, and you always get that nice feeling of warmth there. No matter you do, it's like, God's always around. Pretty dang awesome.
No school tomorrow, I'm gonna sleep in and then revise bio! Then transfer my tkam notes to the tkam that daryl gave me. 13-14 more chapters! Go me! (: That chen is in Malaysia now, haha. Sick somemore. Take care you bozo! I'll plurk for you. Sleeeeeeeep early! Haha.
Peace Outt. | | |
