J1s are coming

Today's mass PE was the best one yet. I hated last week's.
We had 2.4km run today :) But not around the dreaded track, it's around AC, Fairfield and Carltex. 2 rounds = 2.4km according to the teachers. I liked this one because there was shade and scenery. I only felt like giving up at the last lap but decided to push even though all that lactic acid was building up inside my muscles. Ended up running that lap with Marcus -.- Poor Claire had some foot problems. But she had the honour of running with Adam and the PE teachers. :)

It's a nice change, rather than running around the track. I would otherwise have given up at the 3rd round or something.

I missed the last bus from KAP just now. My parents came to my rescue at 12.30am. Oops.

The J1s are coming in next week. So fast! Everywhere will be crowded once again. Canteen, void deck, bleachers, toilets, coridoors... It felt good to have the campus entirely to ourselves. Morning assemblies were cozy and warm (fine, the air con brought the temperature down). Goodbye, Janurary!

College was filled with students who wished to appeal. And their parents. Principal said the cut-off point remains at 6 for science and 7 for arts. Till today, I still keep the SMS which says I've been posted to AC. I still thank God that He let me come in through merit. I have nothing to appeal through. My piano at current standards won't get me anywhere. Handbells do nothing to help. The only way in was through merit. So yeah. Easy peasy for others but one heck of a struggle for me.

AC Celebrations (aka CNY) in school last week was quite well-received. I asked, and people said CO was better this year compared to last year's, which was messy. I think the other performing groups did fantastic too, everything from strings to the malay cultural society to the dance to the finale. Finale was a joke. All the performers had to gather on stage to sing CNY songs -__- CO was scrambling for the back (unfortunately, all that was in full view of those in the balcony at that time) of the stage.

Second week of school

Only the second week of school and my file is bursting with notes and tutorials and classmates' giro forms and more notes.

Only the second week of school and the workload is rising exponentially!!!!

Omg save me. I'm drowning in it.

Oh. We took our height and weight. I gained like, 2-3kg? So that's make it fall under the "acceptable weight" category I think. I must stop snacking so much and maintain my body weight.

Mass PE was horrible. I suffered from muscle aches a day later. Laughing hurt my abs last weekend. Ouch. Next up: Swim PE. Time to buy a swimsuit.

J2 life begins

Well, this is it. The beginning of my life as a J2.

Lecture started on the first day of school. Play? Rest? Relax? Huh, what are they?

I must adjust my body clock, seriously, before it's too late. My so-called peak period is at night from about 11pm to 2am, which is bad!! Then I end up getting a bit drowsy in the morning and then it becomes worse in the afternoon. As soon as the sky turns dark again, my energy level goes up. This is bad! I will sleep in half an hour today. I will!

Still part of class comm this year. My job's easy peasy. & I don't even collect class funds unless absolutely necessary.

Bio classes are combined with 2SC3. Read --> BUCK UP. Or I'll never be able to keep up with them. They are enthusiastic and lively and like, really ON about bio... or maybe everything else, I dunno. I am a far cry from their standards. It's quite overwhelming to be in a class full of smart people and not knowing how far behind I stand.

Two of my tutors this year are discipline comm teachers. Yeah, the male and female DMs. Geog and bio respectively. Am I lucky or what?

Changed class for math. Only Clarabelle, Adam and myself are in this class from AA3. The current president of the student council is here too. Once again, 'play', 'rest' and 'relax' are out of my dictionary.

Major thanksgiving - OPEN HOUSE IS FINALLY OVER!!!!!! I don't know exactly how much I've been troubling or worrying Irvin PeiYan FuEn Sheena Jake and Brian. They must have found me extremely irritating at one point or another. I'd either bug them online or thru' sms. Sorry, I know I sucked as IC. I can make proposals but I can't really keep to them O_O
Just thank God there were no major screwups or anything like that:)

Congratulations to my friends who have just received their O level results. May God give you the wisdom to choose the right courses and schools as you do your JAE selections. This is just the beginning of another phase of your education, I hope you choose it well:)

I wonder what's keeping PL up from posting the 2008 results onto the school website. Wish they would hurry up! I really want to know the stats!

Random photos

Random photos.

Banana plantation outside my unit. Which has been attracting a lot of attention from neighbours and passers-by. This is not something you'd usually see in a HDB estate.


2 Christmas cards which came through my letterbox (: From AC friends Irvin and Claire.

Don't wanna feel like I'm slave to this blog -__-

It's hard, you know. When your friend blows up at you like that.
Or uses a tone that gives you an impression of such.
and my tears are on the verge of spilling out yet again.
am i oversensitive or what?

but i can't help it, can i?

can't believe i'm actually crying because of this.

(ignore this post, please)
