2 days break! YAY :D
after spending one week in hwa chong, i realized that hwa chong, or maybe it's just the college side, is very small, not as big as i thought haha. (:
anw! i finally got my hc uniform yesterday! yay! not that i love it very much, just the exhilaration of getting a new set of uniform in place of my old holey ny one i guess! :D anw! after smtp test yesterday, yeeting kaiqing selina szeling and i went to beauty world to get our uniforms! SAW ADRAIN PANG AND CHENG SHU CHENG FILMING! they were like ng-ing alot of time cos from the time we went there to the time we went home they were still filming the same scene i think. wow it seems so tiring! anw, we went to the (spooky) toilet to try the uniforms and we realized yeeting looks like a zookeeper in the uniform HAHA! and selina looks like some liu2 ji2 xue2 jie3! and no i don't look like i'm from hwa chong primary (like there is such a thing) selina! :/ haiz, selina was like saying kaiqing and i look like we're from HC primary. HA HA HA. :3
anw, after that we went to mac to eat ice cream! yay yum yum mcflurry :D
oh back to the smtp test, wah it was horrible, but somewhat expected lah. since they're gonna choose some talented students, the qns cannot be that easy right... haiya but i'm leaving everything to fate now :D whee~ can get in good lor, cannot then nvm! whee~
orientation starting on thurs! can't wait for the o level ppl to come in, can see if there'll be anymore familiar faces! 2 more weeks to play then REAL WORK SETS IN. :( so must treasure it! (:
btw i just realized facebook is not going to charge the whatever fee. and to think i really believed it! :O
i realized it's very boring to stay at home with nothing to do. :/ btw yesterday cao lao shi (from nanyang) called me at my hp and told me to write a recommendation for ji lao shi for the most inspiring chinese teacher award. and just now as i was writing, i realize how nice my ny teachers are and i miss them! :( hc teachers don't seem as nice, (well i may be biased cos i only know them for like 1 week?) but they seem very fierce and stern and serious. :/ well maybe not all the teachers are like that, ahh, like the econs teacher! ok just be positive :)
school this past week has been rather slack and well, good :D i love the short school hours and the somewhat interesting activities they planned for us (: yesterday some random lady suddenly walked up to us and started asking us what we thought of the IP activities, luckily we all gave positive answers cos she later revealed she was like the DEAN who planned all the IP activities for us! was super shocked then cos she totally didn't look like it, i'm so sorry but she really looked like some random student's parent looking for her child or something because of her dressing, haha!
anw! this week has been briefings, math lectures, diagnostic tests etc. The english diagnostic test 2 we had yesterday was quite terrible i think cos it was like more than 1 option could be the possible answer, totally like the new south wales kind, ahh :/ but i thought the essay one was rather okay.
Oh yesterday we had some bio talk by 2 alumni members! was rather intersting, or at least more interesting than i thought it would be, mainly cos the speakers were were animated and thus, entertaining. :D they shared with us their expereinces in their fields of work and more importantly, to encourage us to take bio. and i was also quite inspired and motivated by them to take up a career in the field. :D yay a scientist? or some R&D person? but definitely not a doctor. cos i'm scared of blood and all other gross stuff. yes. (:
oh and let me talk about the canteen food! not that bad as what i heard from seniors, probably because they changed vendors? yah infact i quite like their food, zha jiang mian! :D
ok the weekends are here and time for a break! supposed to go out with eunice and minjie tmr but aiyah eunice suddenly got some workshop until 5 so now everything's still unfinalized. but hope to see them soon! :D ok i shall spend the weekend studying, or rather, browsing through science stuff!
oh and something really random, but i am looking forward to buying new school uniforms and new school tees! ahh :D probably because i'm sick and tired of my hole-y ny uniforms that make me look like i've been bitten by vampires.
hello! :D today was the first day of JC! erm, sort of better than expected cos the day ended really early, at 12pm! i guess life will be good until after chinese new year cos after that is when lessons really start. :/ anw! today i left home with my mum and siblings and reached ny bus stop at 6.45am, so super early i know. then met meihui and went to serene centre macs (to think we thought we were going to island creamery at 7 in the morning!) haha! then had mini class gathering there cum breakfast before going to school at 8am! then the day started off with deputy p's briefing and ENGLISH DIAGNOSTIC TEST! D: wrote an essay and i realized my handwriting's really horrible and wriggly and curly now. D: after that was break then we went to try the canteen food. portion super big, at least for me. :/ then went to tour the school a little before we went back to audi for math lecture on algebra. not too bad lah, cos it's all revision stuff. (: time passed super fast then it was time to go home already!
this one week is IP activities-- all quite slack one cos we get to go to school later than usual, abt 8 to 9am :D then it's all lectures/lessons and diagnostic tests! oh and there's gonna be some science forum too, quite cool! :D
eh btw i don't know what cca to join, seriously D: nvm, shall see again on cca exhibition day.
ok bye! :D
this holiday i decided to sign up for singing lessons cos i missed choir days, HAHA! but anw, the lessons so far have been quite fun. yesterday i had my 2nd vocal lesson! learnt new techniques such as projection and tuck techniques! and breathing techniques too. quite fun (: and next week we're going to start singing songs already, yay! (:
I decided to post again, although i just posted a few days ago, cos i'm really bored. :/ school has started for the rest, which means my sis and bro are off to school, leaving me at home by myself. and the computer doesn't seem to appeal to me that much nowadays, leaving me with one less thing to kill time with. I know i am supposed to start studying and preparing for JC but hmmm, i don't have the mood to do so, you see, i'm still in holiday mood :D ahh ok i'll try again tmr then. ok off to sleep, this post is rather rubbishy and ranty D:
oh btw! recently JUST watched jay chou's secret and i realized it's a nice show! i especially love the music pieces in it :D
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010! :D
wow! time passes real quickly and it's already 2010. and i'm going to be 17. that sounds so old :3 anw, i think 2009 has been a really great year, and i've grown alot as a person, i think. (: i'm quite satisfied with my 2009 actually and hopefully 2010 would be even better, though i'm not really looking forward to JC life ahh :/ let's recap some highlights of 09!
1. CCA!
cca this year is very much less hands-on and more of standing at the sidelines guiding juniors/ planning programmes etc. but it was great being a PL of hibiscus patrol! <3 things turned out better than i imagined and i'm proud of my patrol! :D especially the sec 1s, they totally surprised me as they were more chatty than i thought. :D yay! oh and another experience worth reminiscing abt is PGA! the experience really taught me alot of guiding skills and life skills too. it challenged my limits and encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone. yup, and i definitely do not regret going for it :D
2. 404! <3
Got to know the class better and made more friends this year as compared to last year! Had alot of fun as well with classmates! oh and the 16th dec kbox date with yeeting, selina, meihui, simin, shijie, xinyun was fun!! i wanna go again! :D and looking forward to elekert too! :D
Studies wise, i became more hardworking as well and i am quite happy with my results this year! :D yay :D
3. SMP!!
this year's smp was amazing, though we didn't really attain the results we wanted. but i'm already quite satisfied with what we have achieved (: from not getting a project allocated to us, to finally miraculously finding a mentor, to the completion of project, it was really amazing and AWESOME! working with wang qian was also super fun and funny! she's a really great partner! and i'll miss nanyang poly and the FOOD there! and the uncle there who sells fruit juice, and i'll always order banana milk from him, so often so that he remembers me now :D hahaha! and working with our mentors, Dr Richards and Dr Ng, it was a really great experience and they're so nice! oh not forgetting gwen, who always helps us, too! :D
4. Presenting to HJT!
Wow this should be one of the most hounourable moments of my life so far :D seeing and presenting to the president of PRC. not everybody gets that chance heh? :D preparing for the presentation with the 5 others + teachers was also super fun! yang lao shi is so nice! :D haha :D
5. GCP to new york and boston!
HAHHAA this trip was super fun and an eye opener. never thought that i would get the chance to travel to the US with my friends! Got to meet alot of new friends and know some of my friends better too (: yay! (refer to the previous post for more details)
6. Family trip since eons!
We haven't been travelling since 2 to 3 yrs ago after my father went for his operation! and i haven't been to segamat to visit my grandparents for 2 years! this time we went back to my grandparents' house for 2 days then another 3 days at A'famosa with apeh and family (: it's like a resort, with loads of stuff to do and try. very fun!! playing cards and board games in the villa with cousins and all was also fun! :D
i think that's about all!
ohh nono, how can i forget this part! My first ever working experience where I earned my own money! though it wasn't alot per se, it was a great expereince. I worked as a waitress btw, with shijie. it was a one night thing for some church's christmas function, and guess what! i met germaine there! :D haha anw, it was great fun too and i saw lots of stuff that happens behind the scenes, tsk! :D
ok that's all for now. 2 more weeks to school reopen :/ i don't want!! ohya still have to study for math quiz...
anw, hope that 2010 will be a great year ahead! i shall attempt to list out some resolutions although i'm not really a fan of new year resolutions :D
1. Be focused in everything i do, esp studies wise (:
2. Be more healthy! in terms of both eating habits and exercising habits.
3. Not spend unnecessary time on computer and tv (hmm this is gonna be quite hard!)
4. Better time management skills
5. Not sleep after 12 midnight!! :@
6. lastly, to be a better person in general.
edit:/ I realized that i actually set new year resolutions last year! let's see...
1. Be more self disciplined.
(hmm, in a sense, accomplished!)
2. Plan time properly.
(hmm i guess this one is not too bad, but can still be improved)
3. Learn how to work SMART.
(ehh... i'm not sure abt this.)
4. Find more time to do other stuff that I like.
(I guess this was ok, i managed to do quite alot last year!)
5. Watch less teevee (anw, xiao niang re is sad...)
(HAHAHA this is such a failure, i'm still addicted to tv :D)
6. Spend less time on computer. it's the ultimate time waster if you're not doing work.
(this is also a failure :O)
7. Spend less money.
(hmm i think this was ok :D)
8. Be more sociable.
(not too sure abt this, but i guess it was ok too? :D)
9. Be happier.
(yep yep!)
10.Be more decisive and stop worrying excessively.
(HAHA this is also another failure. let's just say that i am such a natural worry wart.)
11.Improve my humans and languages.
(ahh yes i did :D)
12.Be more alert about everything.
(hmm... why did i even set such a resolution?)
