i think its neccessary for me to blog a really long entry again, considering the long hiatus and a couple of rather significant things that had happened during this period. haha.
had econs and geog paper 1 mid years last week, and everybody were really mugging hard, especially for econs. for the first time this year, i actually felt very satisfied of myself, because its officially the first time that i really sat down and studied hard for like 5 hours straight. haha. but alas! when the tests came, the questions bombarded me like some form of alien invasion. so for now, i just got to pray hard that my answers made at least the most common sense and that the teachers would be sweet enough to give me a passing grade. i really detest feeling so insecure after studying hard, and the kind of disappointment i might receive upon getting back my results. i guess this is how one distinguish a jc student from students of other tertiary institutions. haha. another apparent tell-tale sign is when one is still attempting to squeeze the content of 100 pages of notes into his mind like 1 minute before the exams commences. haha. we are stressed up young adults.
and now my only form of release in playing soccer may take the backseat too because of the damn thing known as opportunity cost. i would need to forgo my time to study if i choose to play soccer and the fact that there's already so little time left is beginning to put me on the panic scale.
so therefore, i would probably put on tonnes of fats and be so unrecognisable until the end of my As. this is depressing.
on a happier note, weizi and suresh dropped by while theresa and i were studying at coffee bean on wed. was really overjoyed to meet weizi after quite awhile. but their presence cost us our peaceful studying time and so, we began talking from like 7 to 10pm! my thick stack of notes were staring at me from the table, calling out for me to read them, but i conveniently ignored the voices, leaving me with only guilt after that.
weizi and i chatted alot and i realised i missed him so much! there's just never ending conversations with him, and i guess, we're just born best friends.
weizi:
"haha. ya. we never seem to run out of topics! haha. i'm happy too but i really hope we can hang out longer. today wasnt really good. haha :)"
all the best in your quest in searching for love haha.
being able to talk and journey home with weizi that night got me missing a few of my secondary school friends whom i've not seen for quite awhile already and i really miss them!
khine- my buddy since primary 6 to secondary 4. miss her and those most personal conversations we always had. almost got to meet her at rp the other time, but unfortunately, we didnt.
daryl and wanyu- miss them both because they two always make me laugh and feel very happy. miss daryl's chit chatty voice and miss hugging wanyu. miss reminiscing old times with them both and miss debating with daryl over religion and many other things! haha. ohh and miss discussing about sex with jill and them too. horny people :D
menglan- miss this sweetest heart of sweethearts. miss chatting with her, miss her chirpy, animated and always excited character and miss seeing her smile, so warm and lovely.
yuting- miss talking to ah gong because she always shares with me very interesting things she knows or had experienced and she always makes me laugh with her funny comments.
yishu- miss going out and chatting with him, because conversations with him are always deep and makes me think. miss him because he had been one of my strengths to go through each day during my most raw times last year.
maria- miss her bubbly and cheerful nature, and her words which always edify me. miss hearing her beautiful voice singing and her hearty laughter, which always reminds me of how God makes the most wonderful things.
sometimes, i'm so preoccupied with my friends from jc and soccer and other stuff that i neglected the friends i've mentioned. although i may drop them a sms or two once in awhile, its really never enough.

...........................................................................
the history students attended a 'Taking Sides' event yesterday at rjc. was quite interesting overall, because being in rjc itself was like so exciting already. the school is like a country club and is HUGE. and apparently, they received huge sums of donations from organizations like lee foundation, shaw foundation and singapore pools. some anonymous individual also donated money to them. AND singapore pools actually donated an annoying large sum of 1 million dollars! can have some for jj anot! but of course, we're talking about a prestigious school, and its because of such earnest support that keeps them basking in the glory of having the smartest brains there.
was rather nervous before my team's presentation because linda and junkai, the other two speakers only saw the powerpoint slides on the day itself. our group were so ill-prepared and i rushed through the slides the night before, depriving me of my much needed sleep! i was so exhausted and bad-tempered and snappy the next day, especially when the sickening monthly bleeding monster caused me terrible stomach cramps. HAVING MENSES SUCKS! but of course, its part of being a woman and i should be happy that my cycles are regular unlike my sister's.
ohhk so back to the history thingy. we were up against rjc (mind you, rjc!) and we took the side of "The outbreak of the Cold War in Europe can best be understood in terms of insecurity." unexpectedly, our presentation went rather well, even though we didnt rehearse. i guess its because linda and junkai both got the gift of the gap, especially junkai who did so amazingly well, he made the audience laughed too. i think we did better than rjc because they just kept reading off their notes and none could abosrb the overwhelming content they threw up in bullet train speed.
so anyway, it was stella's birthday too and our clique celebrated for her after the day's event. connie, wanqing and i went home first and didnt join them at settler's because we were so tired and in need of sleep. went home to nap for 3 hours and woke up to prepare myself to meet the clique at bugis for dinner. bought famous amos cookies for stella and hope she enjoyed munching on it!
met up with wanqing and connie at je interchange and we saw theresa(!) day dreaming while waiting for the train! was so delighted to see her and weijian about it hahaha. so anyway, while the three of us were on the train, we started talking about the presence of God and how wanqing havent felt it yet. at the precise moment when we started the conversation, i felt the presence of God upon me, in the crowded mrt train. i didnt tell connie nor wanqing, as i was taken so unaware. God comes at the most unexpected time. Praise the Lord!
dinner with clique was so much fun, i couldnt write down every single detail so in a nutshell:
went to this Hong Kong style restaurant at bugis junction (near seoul garden) there to have birthday dinner with stella. since we came in a rather large group, we took up the end of the restaurant, which was quite cosy. the food came in large portions and they were yummy!
since stella was the birthday girl, she got a "da bei nai cha" (big cup of milk tea) on the house. and i swear it was really big! nono, thats an understatement. it was GIGANTIC! the biggest cup of any form of beverage i've ever seen, with the longest and thickest straws! haha. she served all of us the na cha and was enough for each of us, even though our smaller individual glasses were bigger than usual.
camwhoring after dinner at the same place while we waited for seok peng. camwhoring session was so fun, and we really took alot of photos. halfway through, bestia spotted a fight between a middle aged couple and a group of people downstairs, near the bugis fountain. being the typical kpo singaporeans, we all crowd at the window, trying to phantom what was the argument all about. people were crowding arund the scene and emotions of the involved party were rather high, judging by their facial expressions and actions. they started taking out their handphone to call people, and we assumed it was the police. we were right! like half hour later or so, two police officers came. haha. as we were upstairs, we do not know what the argument was about, and so we pretended to be each pary involved, and narrated their possible dialogue. rather funny haha.
bestia and i were dying from curiousity so after seok peng came and after footing the bill ($123), we left and tried to find the group of people but they were gone already. so disapointing! so as we were standing near the bugis fountain, we sabo stella to walk through it and get drenched by the water. but she didnt want! so i suggested we go together with her. lengshan said in a cheeky tone that 'theri like to get wet!'. it was so suggestive please! haha. and so bestia, mengli, szeying, shasha, junkai, stella and i took up the challenge. once the water stopped gushing up, we held hands and ran through barefooted, screaming! unfortunately, the water gushed up halfway through, and hit junkai, menfli and szeying full force because they were behind us! they were really drenched and szeying was mad that stella, the birthday girl who was supposed to be the victim, went through the incident unscathed. haha. people clapped, cheered and whistled for us as we ran through the fountain. and it was one of the craziest thing i've ever did in public! haha. would like to try it again! somehow, it gives you adrenaline rush too.
stella said that she enjoyed herself tremendously and i'm glad she did! birthdays are fun :D
...........................................................................
got to study for physical geog test now! its really taking a toll on me, studying. and although i'm not a fan of click 5, i really want to go to their concert! boo.
had econs and geog paper 1 mid years last week, and everybody were really mugging hard, especially for econs. for the first time this year, i actually felt very satisfied of myself, because its officially the first time that i really sat down and studied hard for like 5 hours straight. haha. but alas! when the tests came, the questions bombarded me like some form of alien invasion. so for now, i just got to pray hard that my answers made at least the most common sense and that the teachers would be sweet enough to give me a passing grade. i really detest feeling so insecure after studying hard, and the kind of disappointment i might receive upon getting back my results. i guess this is how one distinguish a jc student from students of other tertiary institutions. haha. another apparent tell-tale sign is when one is still attempting to squeeze the content of 100 pages of notes into his mind like 1 minute before the exams commences. haha. we are stressed up young adults.
