It has been 3 week since i last posted. and boy so many things have happened in my life....
school life is like a love hate relationship . For me, it is more hate than love .
i think i am able to adapt to the busy busy school life + tuition two times a week + cca and cip.
i am totally getting used to it, i just have to learnt  to use my free time wisely. Free time means friday nights  saturdays and sundays :). i  am praying that i will learnt to trust more in god and that i will be able to maintain a constant bible reading and prayer everyday .

Jc 2 is a whole new challenge alone and i can't believe i am turning 18 this year ?!  I honestly still feel like when i was 16 . yeah even though i am more mature and responsible then i was 16 i really still feel 16! haha i miss those super carefree and slack days.

Taking a break from chem tutorial now. my teacher is super fast in chem tutorials so far we have finished 3 topical tutorials in 3 weeks!

Better be getting back to tutorials :P

was okay.

You must be thinking....

 Is that all you can say? OK?!?!?

FINE!

 I have some new teachers and some familiar old ones.
Overall i think all my teachers are rather good...
my home tutor has changed,
this time i got a male teacher, he is all sarcastic and funny i guess...

the work load is comfortable, but i am absolutely sure that i have to enjoy it while it last because it will definitely get worse.
i have broken my new year's resolution barely 1 day after school start. i come back from school all tired and rather brain deadish.
Usually i will plop down in front of the TV and watch the black box while i am eating lunch.
AND i just can't stop after that...??!! which is absolutely horrible. This has got to stop!

In the beginning of the year before school started that never happened. Maybe it is because i have the energy to busy myself throughout the whole day.

school+ tuition+cca+homework= no time for myself...

well maybe a little, but most of the time is spent -catching up with sleep...

any oh how that is JC life and i have gotten rather used to it so it wasn't as bad as JC 2..

the Fruit of the month is ...
Dragon Fruit!!
i fell in love with this fruit ever since i went to Vietnam. Their dragon fruits there are ABSOLUTELY swee-et.
lovely!MY mom kept feeding us fruits because, she was afraid we would get constipation+fruits were cheap there. well eating it all the time made me fall in love with it. That is not the only fruit i fell in love with... but it is the cheaper fruit that i fell in love with ( by cheaper i mean cheaper and much more affordable fruit in Singapore- this translates to more chances of eating the fruit :)))!!)

It is sunday, a day before JC2 starts :/
The thought of school has my tummy in knots.
i can totally feel myself being bogged down by all the school work, grades already ,
and school doesn't start in like 11 hours ...
The holidays last year and the start of 2009 was absolutely great :)
especially when i got to spend more time with Joanna, claire, nina, vinolia, samuel lam...
But now even as school is going to start i know that i won't get to spend much time with them.
Except probably for claire because she joined math tuition with me :)
even though it is all study i don't mind that, at least i get to see her once a week !
Okay this post starts with me being emo and me trying to cheer me up.
That is rather sad. It shouldn't end sad....
So,
I resolve to be absolutely optimistic when facing the life of a JC2 student.
The ups and downs of school life;
the mountainous homework,
sad and non existent social life,
torturous P.E ,
everything!!
i love denial...
lalalala, blah blah
happy happy happy.....

Not sure if this is writer's block or not, but it has been five weeks since i last posted and i promised to post at least once a month so HERE I AM.
geez , it is not that i haven't been logging in to my lifejournal account . It is just that just when i want to blog about something i have been doing i  find it really lame and narcissistic. Haha i really think i is amazing i stuck to this blog for so long and that probably explains why this is my most successfully kept blog EVER, period.
Lols i really can't imagine why would anyone be interested in knowing every itity bitty detail of your day .
haha this post is a sign that i might never blog here again.
well good news people :)
by the way i was thinking of starting a blog shop. That will require a ginormous amount of effort so it might not come true.

Yeah so after the previous entry i watched a korean movie on the my soju website. The show is called Do Re Mi Fa So La Si Do. It is rather touching and heart warming show, i really liked it. Recommendation: watch this show the main and supporting charactors are rather good looking :). Mmm thinking of the show makes me want to watch it again.
After the show i went running haha all the binging during the exams has taken effect. My stamina has seriously deproved. I was really tired after that.
When i was walking home from i saw Samuel, he caught me by surprize and gave me a hug and wished me a happy birthday. I was still in a daze when he said good bye to me.
Soon after i had to rush to meet my juniors at Marina. I offered to study  with them. It was nice meeting up with them and just catching up. It was really fun and refreshing to see them really just being happy and not giving in to the stress.
Later i met Claire at vivo and we went window shopping. Fun, but i was really tired.
To top it off i ate at a korean restraunt with my family. The food was Delish! I ate until i couldn't move :)

Today was great i had loads of fun...

the first thing i did after i woke up is to go on facebook. That sounds really sad..
i decided it was pretty cool to blog about how i spend my birthdays. Usually it is really normal . The great thing is that there is no school today ! I wonder if there are alot of people whose birthdays are like normal days. I think everybody should feel special especially on their birthday. Me, i felt especially happy and blessed when i woke up today and i can't wait to see how the rest of the day goes...

Last year's birthday rocked. I was during the olevel preparation period and my frieds were pretty tied up but the whole class wished my happy birthday and later me and my friends went out to eat, it was the bomb! I really enjoyed that one- my friend help me celebrate my birthday to the best of their ability, even though many of us were busy studying . So tomorrow is our birthday party to celebrate claire's and my birthday, i hope i will be rockin fun:).

Joanah ! i miss you, really wish you were here. That would definitely be the best birthday gift... Hope you are okay, love ya!

Promos are over :):)
I am a little happy girl!
Correction: a really tired, little happy girl!
I so want to rest and don't want to rest at the same time, because i want to use the com
and watch tv
and read
and day dream all day !
I screwed up a few subjects, i just have to trust the lord that i am going to promote.
I am going to have my few days of pure fun first before concentrating on my chinese and project work alevels.
Hah!

I know i am a late, but i was watching the reruns of American idol season 7 and i absolutely love the sixteen year old david guy, i will avoid typing his sir name , i was never a good speller . Back to the David guy... he is cute and has a great voice, man i would die if he sang a love song to me in his mellow tone. Well, a girl is entitled to dream right?

I so should not be doing this now, but i can't help it!!
haha GP is over ! whoohooo. What is done is done, the only thing i can do now is worry worry or just don't give a DAMN...
i am so relieved that gp IS over ...
i have been waiting a million years for promos to start and be over and done with.
Though i don't think i will be this excited when it comes to my h2 exams.

Argh i can only worry about them later the next exam is literature and chinese which is tomorrow , not going to study for chinese though. For now, i can only immerse my self in OOOthello!
Shakespeare ROCKS. I never did lit in sec 3 or 4 . Othello is my first lit text after 2 years. The last shakespeare text i was doing was Romeo and Juliet. I can't say i do not love Literature, i am definitely not good at it but i enjoy it to the core, a fun yet unpredictable subject .

I can't wait, i can't wait, i can't absolutely wait until after promos! Well we won't exactly have time to relax after that cos there is still the PW segment but all the stress of promos is over until before we get our results which will be after our PW op . Pardon me for being rude but, What The??! By that time we would have clean forgotten everything we have written for the exams. Wouldn't it be great if they would just forget about giving us back our papers and promote us all. There is this tinny winny fear of not being able to promote but ayyish fears are sown by the devil, i have to learn to trust in the lord. I have been drifting away from god, i have. I also find it hard to start a christian prayer group in my schools cos my school is mainly made up of  catholics. I think my purpose lies here, cj is my market place but i don't know where or how i start. May god give me the wisdom and guide me :)

TO all those taking your promos out there- all the best :)  
To those who have already taken your promos- you lucky dawgs !!
To all those who haven't taken your promos yet,which is rather unlikely cos it is already so late in the year-keep on studying, the end will be sweet ! This shout out is to whoever who hasn't taken their exams yet!

Promos are coming and i have been doing a million of things that one is not supposed to do before the exams .
1. i haven't been reading novels for along time and yesterday i just decided to curl up in my bed reading one. I didn't study x'cept what i did during chinese tuition.
2. weekdays after i reach home, i sleep . Dang! All the way till dinner . waste me time all day and end up having to burn the midnight oil. The same cycle all over the next day
...Etc
i dont want to talk about the rest, they just make me feel super guilty. How am i ever going to score in promos or even get promoted if i continue this way?

I have to start changing my attitude now! Hope it is not too late. I have to exercise self control- which i totally suck at :p

Philipines ocip, the people in ther seems fun. Looks like it is not going to be so bad after all ! :)

school tomorrow. I really don't feel like going...

was absolutely horrid. I didn't accomplish much . Give me one week of holidays in the middle of the stressful jc life and i take full advantage of it . Arggh, i can't believe i wasted one, ONE whole freaking week of holidays . What is worse is that the time was spent being a pig , which means; eating, sleeping, watching television, aimless surfing and the process all over again. I hate myself !!! My teachers are going to Slaughter me if they knew...
It is amazing that in secondary school all my holidays were spent almost like this, i didn't do any school work until the last maybe 2 days? Where i will burn the midnight oil. How i got 11 points for o levels seem like a miracle.
The huge problem is that , in secondary school i always knew that i could get away with last minute studying; WORK.
But now in jc i am not so sure anymore , geezz so much work to do so little time . Why do i always realize this on the last few days of holidays . God help me . Promos are in XX days :(. I am sure my Chemistry teacher will remind me tomorrow.

I don't really know how to start this post , but by reading the title you might have guessed that i have gotten Gastric .
Many of you will probably know how gastric comes about , some more than others, but this post is not a know-it-all guide with regards to Gastric , but more of what i have learnt after suffering from it the past 5 to 6 days. At the start i didn't know i was even suffering Gastric , i was an ignorant and though i maybe had mild food poisoning that would go away after a few days . I finally went to the doctor when i found the pain unbearable.

The pain comes like sudden stabs from a sharp knife and goes when i just stay all statue stiff , some times i just try to "squeeze" the pain out . It makes me want to grab my stomach and roll around the marbled  floor of my room howling. The pain makes me crabby i start spouting vulgarities and snap at my friends. This behavior lasted the past 5 to 6 days. Then this morning the lord spoke to me, and i remembered the story of Job in the bible.At this, i went to get my bible to read the story of Job again. One might not find any link between the biblical story of Job and me having Gastric , but to me the link is crystal clear. I will try to explain to you this link but i am terrible at Gp , so bear with me.

I felt that the lord was telling me to adopt the attitude of Job. Job in the bible was a god fearing, righteous man. He was blessed by god. He had a large harmonious family, and was successful in his business and lacked nothing. Satan took every thing from Job. His family , his property, his livelihood, He was plagued with a disease. Yet he refused to speak ill of god . Satan turned job's community against him. He did not curse god. His suffering spanned 42 chapters in the book of Job and he exercised his christian faith and not say anything against god. Instead he worshiped god and asked god to show him what he was doing wrong.

Job's fear and faith for god is something many of us should learn to cultivate. What i went through was perhaps 1000 times less then what Job went through . I only cared about the pain i went through and let the pain affect my actions. Job didnot . I seldom get sick and rarely experience such pain . I know that i will remeber this incident. From this bout of Gastric, i not only learn to always eat regular meals . I also learnt that in the future if i ever meet with difficulties or suffering i will adopt the attitude of Job.

no this is not about the story in the bible . 
Today i feel like writing  about Joanna Poh ,one of my best friends .
she went to australia :(
and i miss her .
she might be coming back at the end of the year,
BUT, i still really miss her.
i was saving money so that i could go over to australia 
i could cheer her up, talk with her , cook for her some local dishes,
just catch up .
What sounds like fun would be hard to achieve ,
when i don't even have the cash.

What an emo post ! :/ i don't really know where that came from.

i didn't know that a scorpion refers to a braid
a  new term i learnt from the kids from my study group on friday .  Apparently braiding your hair is now the latest craze in primary school . i enjoy going every friday .
Helping them with their work , taught me alot of things .
Those kids seem so happy all the time, yet many have to learn to grow up fast . 
i realize how fortunate i am and  helping them with their work helped me to be more patient . i can say that i can understand the pains of teaching :).
i feel that i still have alot more to learn in terms of connecting with the kids and offering mentoring support. i need time to grow !

right now i feel like going to australia , really bad.
i want to visit  joanna and shop and eat and play and take pictures .
i might go with Claire at the end of the year , ain't that great ?
first thing is to save enough money for all the expenses
i think i will not buy food during breaks  anymore .
 this week did not turn out so bad .
then i will get a job right after promos end . haha so excited !

on top of that i really feel like eating char kuay tiao. haha , i want to go Australia to eat Char kuay tiao ? Thats so weird . i haven't eaten it in so long . Crave , Crave , uber big craving :(

All that and none about doing my work and studying , which i am supposed to do ... Today i have not done anything .  zero, nada ,zilch ! :/ better get back to maclaurins series now...

SLACKER!!

Because that is what i have been doing the past few days. The past few days almost felt like how i usually spend my time in secondary school but with lots more guilt . Now i realize that i was pretty lucky to get my 11 points with that little studying .

The weekend rocked . Friday went with claire to watch Dark Night, it was great ! Though   claire and i closed our eyes through most of the gruesome parts :/ The joker is so screwed .
I played with Denise's dog at claire's house . She is called Maxine and she is super cute :) 

Saturday and Sunday was spent with my family we became couch potatoes lying in front of the tele

We are such lazy bums !

i never wasted so much time in front of the tele this whole year , it felt good :)
The after effect guilt however is horrible , i tried to  complete some work today but i haven't done much :)
My teachers will kill me if they knew . I guess i have to work harder the nxt few days .

I can't wait till the next holiday break :)

I think i am drifting away from god, it is not him, just me .
I dont know why , all i know is that deep down inside me i want to get back to the close and intimate relationship with him. Working on it , praying about it, pray for me . I think it is hard to let go of what ever control over your life and let him do the leading . Pray that i will have that faith to do so . Many times we say that we let god take control in our life , yet we pray that we will score well for the exam and we will not do badly , etc. This just applied to many aspects in our life , is this letting god take control? Will we understand when we are not doing well no matter how much effort we put in? Will our parents understand. I sound so emo...
No this is not really referring to me , though i didn't do well for my midyears,  i knew it was my fault i didn't prepare enough . What is life?
My sister made a random comment today , she said that she rather die before she went through all the "hardships" of dying .I hope i didn't jinx her by posting this . She said , wouldn't it be better if she could die before suffering from studying . My dad told her " Don't test god!"
I thought about it , and i decided, NO , i think all that studying wasn't that bad , after all what i learnt went in my right ear and came out my left :) this is absolutely true for my olevel work . Its amazing what two months of hibernation can do to your brain. Jc life will remain stress, i will always struggle with my syllabus , yet come to think of it , it is fun! And i thought about it, i want to leave this world knowing that i have lead a fulfilling life. I am going to treasure everyday and not waste my precious time . 
Now that i have sorted things out i am going to pray :)

i'll make lemon tea !!
My new love : lemon tea, with sugar or without, cold , hot  or warm :)
today , being the genius that i am , came up with a few mathematical formulas
1. ice + lemon + tea= cold yummy ice lemon tea
 i just love homemade ice lemon tea :) don't know why , there is no reason to fall in love with something, or SOMEONE, for that matter . What i would like to highlight is that the drink MUST be homemade, hate all the packed can or bottled ones. May be it is just psychological , once i see the real lemon slice in the drink i just feel that it taste better ?
2. too much durians = painful throat :( + sexy voice :)
if i am going to suffer from a sore throat , i must at least get a sexy voice when i have it right?
haven't gotten to that part yet though, i am still waiting...
but at the rate i am drinking lemon tea, i probably won't reach the sexy voice stage...
3.project work = shit + shitting + shitted+...
my group and i , we are very smart ,
chose to do a life journey on a person who has very little info on, no books , not much clips, limited internet articles
doing EOM  is a torture!!! joooo i want  to go aussie !!
4.lime juice + lemon tea= delicious sourness
My mom just handed me a cup of lime juice to finish cos she couldn't stand the sourness. So i had to finish the cup of lime juice on top of my cup of lemon tea ( without sugar) i dont know if the word can be used like this, but  i took one sip of the lime juice and downed another sip of the lemon tea and experienced the greatest sour rush ever ! SHIOK ! haha. i advise everybody  to try :) Warning: do not try this on an empty starving stomach, you'll probably  die from a hole in the stomach !
Thats it for today ! i probably came up with more formulas then Einstein in one day , my brain needs a rest :)

 the baby kiwi!!
:) they are really small ( the size of a berry ) and it is real easy to eat , one can do so by merely popping it into it's mouth with its skin on( wash it first if you do not want a million harmful chemicals flowing through your body ), a great snack for lazy people .Baby kiwis barely have hair unlike the normal kiwi. Say no to hairy uncomfortable skin! haha , that line sounds like it came from a waxing  saloon :P
Having been having it recently yet the sudden craving for it suddenly came over me , if you buy them during peak season you would usually get them on offer at cold storage or NTUC. They are really sweet :)  Their peak season is around september october and november. Can't wait till then, want them NOW!
I am not saying that the normal kiwi isn't nice , what i am trying to say is baby kiwis are a wonderful alternative to the normal kiwis. i love normal kiwis but i love baby kiwis more ! Must try it !

i was thinking. Would good friends that constantly hang around each other eventually get sick of each other? I mean after a few years of knowing and hanging out with each other we begin to uncontrollably grow to hate each other. Will this ever happen? i hope not.

haha being sbsolutely random here :)

have loads of homework that has to be completed tomorrow! i should get to work !

wait !Is my english bad?haha random question, the reason i am blogging is to help improve my english , more practice at the same time improve my typing:). talk about killing two birds with one stone...
