:O

Today plays an important role in the archives of my life. Even with my laptop, it marks the most boring day ever.

Today is a Sunday, supposed to be a usual Family Day for me but I have no idea where my father had gone to. My mother went to Raffles Hospital to visit my grandfather again. Both my sisters are out, leaving me and the domestic helper at home.

And who still remembers Brandon Chew? Recently, I logged on to Friendster and found his profile. I saw his picture with his current girlfriend. Okay, oh.my.god. Seriously, oh my god okay? God, do something about it, really. Help him.

Thank you Siyi! She called me and told me she found the correction tapes at Daiso!

I stoned for the whole day.

To add on to my misery, because my mother is suspecting my maid, she said if I am not going out and if possible, stay in her room the whole day until she is back. On a lighter note, I think her room is paradise to me. Two air cons, TV with any channels, nice lightings and my laptop with me. I need to go out and get my ass back into social life soon. Yes, tomorrow onwards.

I could not imagine what will happen to me today if without any electronic gadgets with me.

I went to Raffles Hospital to visit grandpa yesterday. Changi General Hospital can close down, foreigners easy to cheat money is it? Private hospitals are always better than Government Hospitals. Will share the trick with my readers next time

Usually, my inbox is full of his messages. Weird. Gah. He confused me again. With additional insults. Actually he doesn’t mean it, I know but I assumed it is. HAHA.

Me : What?
A : What?
Me : What?
A : What?
Me : What, what?
A : What, what, what?
Me : What la!
A : What thing what?
Me : So what now?
A : What what now? Why?
Me : What why?
A : What what why?
Me : Why are you asking me why?
A : Why are you asking me why?
Me : What why!
A : What what why!
Me : Omg…

My dad back. And he is cooking fried rice for me now. Give face. Eat.

Examination period, over! (Self Declare)

I have one last paper which is Design & Technology Theory Paper but I self declare that I am free from Mid-Year Examinations! Though I will still study for the paper which will certainly help to pull up my overall result.

I was using Facebook to study for Social Studies by posting what I study, in my Facebook wall.
A comment from Hayati : nice work man. You found a way to study without using books – facebook.

Social Studies : Northern Ireland came out as source based questions in Section A. Our teacher told us not to study for Northern Ireland. Calvin told us that the paper is the same as the paper Express students took, or at least, very similar. There are three questions in Section B and we can only choose one so I chose the one on Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) and Principles Of Governance.

English Language Paper One : One of the choices is link to Social Studies on Leadership so I chose that. It is a personal expository – Principles Of Governance. I thought no one would have the same thought as me, however, I had underestimated many’s intelligence. Most of the Express students wrote the same thing as well. For Section B, on Speech.

English Language Paper Two : Took my breath away. I wrote 154 words for summary but I could not be bothered to cancel 4 words away.

Chinese Language : Suicidal. Paper One took half of my life away. Paper Two another half. I almost died.

Mathematics Paper One : Mr. Sin should set more difficult questions. School’s standard has dropped a lot. The standard is always never there anyway. I knew N level paper is not as easy so I checked with Mrs. Fong if this is the standard or much easier and she said it is so much easier. I would rather fail now than fail my national exams.

Elective Geography : Difficulty level is almost the same as the Chinese paper. I chose Map Reading and Rivers instead of Map Reading and Coasts. Map Reading and Developments are compulsory section. My answer for gradient is obviously wrong. I can never get it right when comes to map reading except for grid reference which everyone can do.

I studied for Geography and I cannot do the paper.
Actually I am quite confident for this paper but the day before, I was so scared that I might fail so I studied for it the whole day, headache, felt nervous and suddenly forgot everything… Should not have studied so much for it.

Science (Chemistry) : I did not study for Chemistry but I can do the paper. In Paper 4, there is this two-questions-and-you-choose-only-one plus one compulsory question. I DID TWO QUESTIONS. They will take the first two questions into account and I am very confident of the first question (out of the two questions) so no worries for that. Read the instructions carefully next time.

Science (Physics) : Difficulty level was average. I can do most of the questions and cannot do most of the questions. Okay, what was I saying? After the paper, had breakfast with Sihui then we went shopping. The day was just bad, so bad that I do not wish to spend so much money on shopping anymore. I reserved a dress at Hula & Co. at Wisma Atria and will be collecting it on Saturday.

Mathematics Paper Two : It was the TOTAL OPPOSITE of Paper One!!! I was struggling to finish the questions!!! I forgot most of the working methods. I forgot to bring the construction set and I forgot about factorization. But I am glad it is NOT an easy paper

—–

After the paper, I ran down to the MRT station and reached Orchard at 12.09PM but my appointment at the dental clinic is 12.15PM! I ran along the streets of Orchard while talking to my mother on the phone, complaining how difficult the paper was but at the same time, I do not mind the difficulty level.

I’ve got my lower retainer done!

I prefer wearing this wire one because the transparent one hurts more. My upper set of teeth is still using the transparent retainer and doing fine

Supposed to go HTA to return number one uniform and help Mr. Ganesh to carry the NCDCC Water Mist Guns back but he is absent.

I took train down to Ang Mo Kio Interchange and took bus 169. Alvin confused me!
A : What do you see on your left? Like a camp right?
Me : No, it looks like forest on my left and right…
A : Have you reached the cross junction?
Me : What is a cross junction?
A : The up down left right one…
Me : I don’t know!
A : Have you passed the traffic light?
Me : There are so many traffic lights! Ok I saw Singapore Zoo…
A : Okay! Correct already la.
Me : Okay so where now!
A : Just pass by then you will see Nee Soon Camp right?
Me : Stop confusing me!

Okay then he boarded the bus, and I randomly asked him why must there be those fences around the camp.

Me : Why must there be fences around the camp?
A : Because people might climb in…
Me : Why would people want to go in?
A : There are weapons inside and… they might steal our helicopters!
Me : HUH!

Hahaha okay sounds funnier when he said that and I can only remember this because I had a good laugh over how he express it.

There are so many more funny conversations but I have forgotten them.

This is not funny but still… -.- I didn’t know it was so -.- until I typed it out. That explains Alvin’s expression.
A : You know there’s this shirt they wear inside their uniform? The brown color one. They changed it to the green one.
Me : Nice what. Green one then they can camouflage in the forest what!
A : Prefer the brown one, it is nicer.
Me : They wear green, Navy wear dark blue then why Air Force never wear blue? Camouflage in the sky. Or white? Can camouflage in the clouds.
His expression immediately -.-!!!

Mr. Ganesh, what a wrong timing to be absent.

Hiatus.

To all readers of Freedomofdoves,

Wish you all all the best in your upcoming exams!

Two weeks of hiatus.

High Rope Challenge Course

Guess who was late? NOT ME ANYMORE. Yi Lin was late because she overslept. I reached Bishan Juntion 8 at 6.30AM sharp and met Xin Xia and Kale first. So we waited for Yi Lin at the bus interchange when we saw Ms. Cynthia Tan (OC) and she joined us in waiting for the guest of honor. By the time Yi Lin reached, it was already 7.15AM so we hired two cabs.

(I need to do revision now so just a rush post!!!)

We saw other schools with a huge squad. And I was starving the whole morning. I skipped breakfast and I was feeling so weak already. Almost wanted to faint.

They wore Jellicoe shirt and I was the only one wearing Harwood shirt. Kale said I wanted to blend in with the Catholic High boys. Lol!

Ms. Tan and us in the bumboat. Only four people from the secondary four squad, we are the only survivors.

At Pulau Ubin’s jetty, with the two senior NCOs, Neveon and Jun Ru

Chiaw Sian from Peirce Secondary School. I have another one with Ivy but I think I don’t look good in it. Haha.

I thought we will be taking the cab in to the campsite. (Do they call cab in ubin? Ok vans or whatever) Wishful thinking I know. So we walked to the campsite and it was quite tiring because we had to catch up with the Catholic High boys. On our way there, the only activity in our mind was the Flying Fox Our aim is just to play the Flying Fox.

With harness and helmet on.

I seriously have no idea what this element is. They call it the DD. I only managed to get up to the third log and Kale, fourth. She could not reach the fifth log and I also could not reach the fourth log so we gave up. We were the last group and we just wanted to play the Flying Fox.

“Kale, I super hungry leh. Why not ask the CI bring us some food, we eat here, relax then try to climb again?”
“Sian la, give up together want or not?”
“Never mind la, we reach our target (third log) already, haha!”

Flying Fox! But there was a loooooonnnnggggg queue. We had nothing to do except taking pictures The pictures are with Ms. Tan and I highly doubt we can get it from her anytime soon.

Flying Fox was damn shiok! Screamed for three seconds and opened our eyes. The campsite looked so beautiful

After the Flying Fox, we had our lunch. The very first time NPCC food tastes so delicious. Or maybe because I am really hungry. I finished every single bit of rice. And we were supposed to have our lunch at somewhere at the back but Ms. Tan told us to move over to the BBQ area (I think it is la!) because it faces the sea and there’s better scenery there While at the back, you will have to feed mosquitoes.

In this picture, I was facing the sea, enjoying the scenery, haha.

I don’t know what this is and I don’t care. Haha because played Flying Fox already. I realize I am still on Flying Fox topic.

There was a lightning alert before we can do the portable water thing. So we had to stay indoor.

The lightning alert may not be a bad thing after all. We had so much fun under the shelter! Like Neveon taking pictures of _______ without the flash off! That was embarrassing but entertaining Jun Ru and I have a common topic which is shit. We cannot shit in public. More jokes about it but I am not going to type it out.

SUNBURNT.

I was trying to avoid Yi Lin from hitting me. She brought her violence all the way to Pulau Ubin!

The Raffles Institution cadets wanted to take a group picture and I took it for them.

“You all want portrait or landscape ah?”
“Eh wait ah, one more one more!!!”
“Okay! One more!!!”
“Wait ah, one more!!!”
“Eh wait wait wait, one more one more!!!”
“Eh wait wait wait, I change angle!!!”
“Eh wait ah, another angle!!!”
“Wait wait wait!!! One more from there”
“Wait!!!!!! One last one!”
“Okay wait! One last one”

And so, it was their turn to take a picture for us. They were imitating me! Haha so we got face cramps after so many shots.

The Presbyterian High School cadets tried taking some jumping shots so the RI boys tried that too! We joined in the fun as well! Girls unit on the left and boys unit on the right!

Then took the cab out to the jetty, took bumboat back, met Zheng Qian at the hawker centre, met Jimmy, had dinner, took bus 59 home and blah blah blah…

加油！

我真的很怕，很怕，很怕。。。
考试和测验－我总觉得我会不及格。我想赢。我一定要赢！但最近我的自信心不是那么强了。我真的不想令我的父母失望。我也要在我的 o 水准考试中，能获得比我姐姐高的分数。我绝不能放弃！希望我的朋友们也会一起加油！
