its the COMMON TEST PERIOD!
oooooh.
i have just scraped through 4 subjects.
and tml is CHEMISTRY.
im not sure if i will cross the 'passing' mark.
oh well.

after much persuasion from my cousin,
i've AGAIN decided to drop Biology.
i agree.
it would be a much more relaxing life without it.
besides,
being a doctor isn't exactly on my list of career choices.
so....
YEPP!
NO MORE BIOLOGY!!
HIP HIP HOORAY.
i've yet to talk to ms neo about it.
BUT im still going to study briefly for the common test as usual.
and perhaps the grades i achieve would determine whether i'm made for it or destined to fail it.

apart from all these grades and stuff,
im into HANAKIMI!
i've found this REALLY REALLY VERY VERY interesting character in it!
MEI TIAN ROCKS!
=D
ahahahs.
ya. he's gay.
but its alright!
he still looks charming all the same.
((((((=

I STILL WANT TO PLAY SQUASH.

i can talk already!
=)))))
maybe its the amount of bakkwa i swallowed despite my throat.
heheh.
but it was terrible i tell you.
imagine playing mahjong,
and then you desperately need to get the tile,
and you scream but no one hears you.
so in the end you stick your hands out and wave them about hysterically to grab their attention.
like some hysterical mahjong player.

thats how i went past my first day of the New Year.
when i got home, i got hooked onto a computer game.
its Lemonade Tycoon.
you sell lemonade, and become a tycoon.
like real.
lols.
but its fun.
and my mum is addicted to Zuma.

this year i had 3 reunion dinners.
and everyone of them was a Steamboat.
eating steamboat 3 days in a row is not exactly the best feeling.
the ingredients are ALWAYS the same.
and you keep eating and eating and eating the same thing over and over and over again.
over 3 consecutive days.
OMG. *puke*
ok. i almost did that.

yesterday was slightly better.
there was KFC, curry that wasn't halal, fried rice cakes and cocktail sausages.
i lost 6 bucks to a game of blackjack.
and 3.20$ to a game of mahjong.
luckily, i earned thousands of dollars in Lemonade tycoon.
=D

Nintendo DS looks great and has really terrific games!
like cooking mama.
its really cute.
=D



ok.
its almost time to go for breakfast.

did i mention?
i'm sick.
as in really, physically ill.
not being a mental pervert.
i'm really ill and i think it'll affect my CNY ang pow collecting mission.

i've totally LOST MY VOICE.
i can't say anything!!!
let alone wish my relatives a happy new year.
which also means i get condemned for being some bloody arrogant girl who cannot open her mouth to speak.
and there goes my ang pow...

nothing is salvaging the situation.
and its deteoriating quite drastically at the moment.
even after i swallowed a spoonful of king nin jiom pae pa gou.
or after eating lots of raw veg my dad claimed to be good for health (which turned out to be false) .
and even trying to drink cups of redoxen dissolved in water.


come back my voice.
I NEED YOU.
hahahs.
oh yar. i can't produce a laugh.
oh whatever.

today was rather short.
though i had lots of setbacks.
=D
like failing my chinese and english class tests in a row.
oh what the heck.
and i merely passed my maths.
hahahas.
yupps.
this is what you get for trying to work harder.
lols.

band is as usual, the same old thing.
i managed to memorise my whole score.
though i still make little mistakes here and there.
=)

i'm not exactly afraid anymore.
im frightened of what lies before me.
i'm not sure of meeting the requirements the teachers set for us.
they sound like aliens whenever they teach.
i'm old and i cant absorb.
can't they understand?
my bones are brittle and my brain is wrinkling.
can't they see?
oh no.



i've taken a liking to those blood red roses on display in the florists.
they look beautiful in a bunch.
majestic, romantic, beautiful.
=D

lalalas.
i'm taking time off my books.
=)

hooray.
the common test is just around the corner and i'm down with flu.
and i can't even muter a word in a breath.
=(
right.
so my immune system is horrid.
how can it break down at a crucial time like this huh!
hahahs.
forget it lahs.
tml is Valentine's Day!
wishing all couples bliss and happiness!
=D

today is just horrid.
my stationary gets detained for 5 minutes.
my hairband stains my hands black.
my sister makes me bankrupt.
my house circuit breaks.
i'm ill.
and i cannot get to sleep.

ok.
im just trying to be stupid here.
because people in less developed countries probably lead life more horrid than mine.
right. IM FORTUNATE.

lols.

CNY is approaching.!
and i'm still a little tied down and bummed out.
=(
my sister has taken ill.
but she managed to pull through the whole day out at the science centre.
my mum's colleagues were there together with their families.
yar. this is called a FAMILY DAY OUTING.
hahahs-
there is the iSpace and iFuture exhibition halls put up for public viewing so do visit!
ITS REALLY FUN.
hahahas.
xD
they mainly emphasize on infocomm technology and future IT.
its really cool.
theres the Chemistry section in the multi-functional hall that teaches you many concepts and allows you to do experiments! like gas chromatography, fractional distillation and stuff like that.
theres also this moving periodic table that tells you about the density, size of atoms and ionization energy.

i scraped this entire paragraph from the board:

Ionization energy

Ionization energy can be defined as the energy required to remove the outermost electron from a gaseous atom.
Across the period, the ionization energy needed increases because of the increasing nuclear charge. The attraction between the nucleus and the electrons increases, and thus more energy is required to remove the outermost shell electrons.
The ionization energy needed decreases down the group. As the number or of shells increases, the outermost electrons lie further and further away from the nucleus and are not so strongly attracted to the nucleus. Thus it requires lesser energy.

lols.
i'm not sure if its included into our syllabus.
but it was interesting.
=D


off i go to my korean dramas now.
korea rocks. squash rocks too.
hahahas.

i cant figure.
i'm confused.
i'm afraid.
i wish. to know more.




TITANIUM SQUASH RACQUETS HERE I COME!

oh yes.
i haven't updated my blog for a few days already.
i'm not sure why, because i've been drowning myself with boredom these days.
the boredom aside, i was rather disturbed.
include all those lousy results i'm getting.
16 for chemistry.
6 for geography.
i don't even want to think about social studies.
i'm going crazy soon.
i need to get good grades.
can someone tell me how?
=/

on the 3rd of this month we went for the music exhchange in Mayflower Secondary together with Pasir Ris Sec., Hua Yi Sec., Canberra Sec., and, of course, Mayflower.
Hua Yi was playing the same choice piece as us,
so i guess the whole band felt the pressure the moment they started making music.
and obviously, they did it better.
find all the excuses you can, but it is undeniable that they rock in their dynamics.
i've never paid much attention to those small italics found almost below every bar.
not until i heard them play.
so yeah.
this is what the real thing is.
but we fared pretty well.
debbie pitched the high G in the second bar faster than the trombonist in huayi.
HOORAY!
we got to do better. much better.
anyway the rest of the day was rather, depressing.
the little 'gathering' of the sections from all the schools turned out to be boring.
only one sec 5 girl from the host school came round to shake hands and introduce herself.
the rest of the time, we were.. the dullest creatures on earth.
yar. and then when we 'exhchanged' tokens.
pasir ris sec started passing round packets of sweets.
and then they started tossing.
then they started throwing without aim.
and then they started aiming and shooting.
oh yes.
and the floor was strewn with sweets.
....
and we sat there like idiots.
.......
but we managed to pass our packet of lollipops around.
=)
without them throwing it.
because i think they know the danger of the hard candy or perhaps do not wish to let their lollies shatter into pieces.
hahahs.
and yar.
theres nothing else worth mentioning apart from all these.

the band has embarked on their morning practices already.
i'm not quite sure what the practice is meant to serve as.
sure thing is, i look forward to stepping into the room first thing in the morning.
=)
yay.
60 days to go.

KEEP GOING!



let me see what spring is like in jupiter, and mars.

im really crazy now.
i was actually smiling during practice.
but soon after it ended, i don't know why, but i started to frown.
i feel helpless looking from afar.
feel sad.
feel disappointed.
feel miserable.
..
honestly.
i almost felt that the earth had thrown me out.
ALMOST.
(because im STILL on earth)

BUT.
after having 2 bowls of sweet potato porridge and 2 bowls of beancurd.
i'm bouncing about.
=)

tml's the music exchange.
and the drill training after it is cancelled.
kudos to mr ting.
so i guess if he had discussed it with yunjie before approaching the band to get a oh-so-obvious answer about staying back after the exchange, we would be marching at the quadrangle in the afternoon the next day.
i wonder if it does us more harm than good.
just take it that the music exchange would do us enough good to cover up the bad for the loss of an important drill training session.
=/


now i;m hesitating.
whether to type a phrase of encouragement or not.
because i cannont confirm whether i typed it for myself or for anyone who comes across my blog.
OH. WHATEVER.

WORK HARD!!!!

i think i know how 'wind' gets 'blown' into your tummy.
try sucking a black pearl up the large straw when drinking a cup of bubble tea when you have finished the tea.
you end up swallowing a whole lot of air together with your food.
then your tummy gets cold.
...
people in the past never had much of a problem probably because they never used straws or even if they did, they wouldn't do what we love to do- hoping to suck in the last few tiny drops of our favourite drink that is at the far corner of the cup.

be good if you dont wish to get a tummyache.
don't suck in air together with food.
=)

Sylvia. Syl. And someone you'll never expect me to be.
