And so.. i went back for Fuhua's 8th Annual Speech and Prize Giving Day last Wednesday.
Nothing really special about it though. Thought i would be receiving some prize or something since they invited me back. But just as i've guessed, they invited me back just to grace the occasion.
The parade wasn't really fantastic. The scouts parade marker got the wrong timing the moment he came out from the back. Bangings weren't really syncronised. And i heard that one of the NCC GOH guy puked onto Mrs Yip's shoes just moments after the guest of honour walked past him during the GOH inspection. But i wonder why i didn't see it. Maybe cos i was busy chatting with Mr Lee KW at the back of the hall.
The concert was also just the usual stuff. Nothing really special.
I think holding the speech day in the morning isn't a really good idea. It's less grand as compared to speech day being held in the evening. Everything is like so "any-o-how-ish" done. All the students will also be seated in the hall, making the whole scene super messy. Only a pathetic number of guests will attend the morning speech day.
Seriously, i think the school should shift speech days back to the evenings. Hmmm, i think i should feedback someday.

Went "sao mu"-ing this morning. It's been years since i went along with my parents. The whole family went, together with one of our cousins. First to the chinese cemetry then to CCK columbarium.
Er, nothing much to talk about.

Time to get back to work. I took like 4-5 hours just to complete one chemistry tutorial. OMG.
It's 7.22 now and i'm not in school. I'm invited back to Fuhua's speech day later on probably just to grace the occasion, but i'm having a weird feeling of not going to school.
I've passed the letter to my CT and told her abt it quite some time ago. She said ok. I msged her last night to check if i needed to be in school for morning assembly but she didn't reply. =(
And so, i decided not to. Cos if i went to school, i'll have to leave the chem lecture at abt 8.30 (just for 1/2 hr) to find my CT, to get the early leave form, to get her to sign, to get the P/VP to sign blah blah, before i can leave.
But if i don't go to school, i'll feel super weird. Like how i'm feeling right now.
I kept thinking abt it for the whole of yesterday afternoon and night. Should i or shouldn't i? At 7am just now, i was still contemplating whether to rush down to school or not. But anwyay, i think the decision is pretty much decided already. It's 7.26 and i'm still at home. 7.27.
Still, that weird feeling lurks within me.
Am i thinking too much? Yes, i think i am. -.-"
[EDIT]6.03PM: It still kinda bothers me that i didn't attend school today. Omg. Maybe i shld have just skipped the Fuhua speech day thingy. Argh. But it's all too late. Damn, i doubt i'm gonna have a good night's sleep tonight.
I'm weird. Really weird.
Am i still thinking too much? Absolutely. -.-" [/EDIT]
Anyway, my bro won some We Sing Our Songs concert tickets from some PAssion card contest.
The synopsis from Sistic's website:
2007 is the year we say goodbye to the 30 year-old National Stadium! The Theatre Practice and TCR Music Station bid a fond farewell to that wellspring of laughter, song and memories with We Sing Our Songs - a mega sing-along of 5,000 voices that will rock the stadium with our favourite Singapore songs such as xinyao, television favourites, national day songs and many more! Belt your hearts out with us at this farewell party!
Many of the songs definitely rang a bell. But some were just plain boring.
It was quite worth it going for this concert, given the free tickets. But i wouldn't BUY the tickets to go watch this.
And of course, we didn't forget to grab the last opportunity to take pictures in the national stadium.

And yah. My eldest bro won Mr Bean's Holiday Movie passes and movie premium from Safra Movie Club contest.
And so i went for my medical appointment at NUH Eye Clinic today.
Reached there at about 9.10am, did the necessary registration, some visual acuity test, then by 10 plus i was seeing the doctor.
Ok, about the growth..
Because i have oily skin, the linings on my eyelids are oily too. So what happened was that a pimple grew on the lining of my lower eyelid and after it burst, the part overhealed and so i had that extra lump of flesh there.
Option 1: "I'll make a cut on the growth and drain away the remaining pus and fluid inside, i'll give u an injection and hope that the growth subsides."
Option 2: "If it doesn't subside after 2 weeks, then u gotta come back and i'll have the cut away that part. That's gonna be very bloody."
"Hmmm, usually we'll just do the first one and not touch it that much. ... We can get it done today, but first i'll need to get the room ready. So for now, you just take a seat outside and we'll call your name again."
That moment, my heart skipped a beat.
After my mum and i signed the consent form, it was waiting, waiting and more waiting. OMG. The wait was seriously agonising.
It was almost 11.15am when i went into the treatment room. The anaesthetic jab was SUPER DUPER FREAKING painful. I'm used to those given to my arm during blood donations. But the jab was given straight onto my lower eyelid. Woah. Then the doctor went on to clamp my lower eyelid, make a cut, squeeze out the pus and fluid, clean the wound blah blah.
For the whole procedure, i could see all the syringes, needles, tools etc hovering above my eye. It sure was frightening.
It didn't take that long. Maybe about 15 minutes? I was so relieved when it was all over.
And now, i'm halfblind.
On the eye patch, 1 bloody spot for the medication jab, 1 bloody spot for the anaesthetic jab, 1 bloody spot for the wound. And the bloody spot on the tape, cos a pimple broke while i was removing the patch. -.-"
Ok, i seriously hope that when i return in 3 weeks time, the growth will be gone and i won't have to go for the scary option 2, of which i have to undergo the super duper painful anaesthetic jab again.
Spent the whole of yesterday traveling around Singapore.
First i went to Somerset to collect a pair of free GV movie tickets and 2 combo set vouchers that my eldest bro won from some Starhub contest.
Super ulu place in Ang Mo Kio.
Then i went to Mediacorp Publishing located somewhere in Ang Mo Kio to collect the 8 Days / Maybank / One Last Dance contest prizes that i won.
Anyway, in the sms, they mentioned that i won a Maybank pre-paid card and autographed posters. I was hoping for Francis Ng's or Vivian Hsu's autograph but when i opened the posters, only 1 out of the 3 had an autograph on it. Furthermore, it's by some "Ti Long" guy and i don't know who the heck he is. -.-"
May all your dreams come true and may our friendship last forever! Hope you'll like what's inside the package. =)

Anyway, my 2nd bro left for a holiday trip to Malaysia on Monday.
So when i'm back home from school, there's no one for me to talk to. There's no one for me to talk about school work and school stuff. During bed time, there's no one lying on the bed next to mine to chit chat with me till i slowly fall asleep.
