i came back from np a couple of hours ago. i'm dreadfully tired. so gone that i can't even think straight. they are still debating about the 1st class drills. true, the sessions are getting better but i'm still not too keen with it. if the squad wants it then i'll just take it. but if not, i would rather not.
went shopping twice this week. one round, got the mothers' day gift. second round yesterday, i reserved a queen of camelot-nancy mckenzie, bought a pink bag from xcessories, pink scrunchie from livia's, r+j, shakespeare in love, casablanca vcds. so cool. i'm way behind budget now. so gotta save.
American Idol. josh is gone. it's true that he redeemd himself. but so what? he should have gone last week. oooh clay! the second son gotta gre it wasn't as good as the first one. he sang the first so well, i couldn't even tell that it was the same as josh's song at first. it was a breathtaking performance.
Survivor. i really want matt to win. he's the most deserving. the least scheming. he doesn't seem to realise that rob is willing to throw him off at any slightest moment. even though he treats him as the best bud on the team. matt is so athletic. he just keeps winning the challenges. butch is real lousy at the rope swing thing. haha. next week is the survivor finale. i'm gonna watch the full thing. and i can barely wait. heidi so sabotaged her chances by the stupid remark she made at tribal council about how the guys were scared of her. the guys all voted her off. but of course, maybe they already intended to do that. another case of over-estimating like christy and alex. sheesh.
today, all i wanna do is study the chapter on the mammalian eye, glands and a little of human reproduction. then i wanna sleep early. nothing else up for grabs.

today was a pretty okay day. i remember receiving some email before about how tuesday is the most low-down day and everyone is sad, coz the weekend is but a distant memory and the coming weekend is too fa rot even think of. well i like wednesdays. coz the morning is just english and maths and chem. but mrs tan siew kim had to return a couple of periods so we had bio. and bio is well, pretty boring so u don't really listen haha. sherwood hasn't been coming to school of late. i believe we will have to choice but to have loads of make-up lessons. coz we have missed 4 periods of geog and 2 periods of history already. then we have geog after recess, then chinese(which u don't listen either) then c.lit. but i dropped that subject so i have free periods. so i did some reading today.
wearing the full-u was really tiring especially when i've been wearing the same size since sec 1 and it's not comfortably fitting anymore since i've put on weight. urgh. i've got to lose 4 kg. nope. i think 5kg. coz i'm nearly reaching 110%.
there's np tomorrow. i don't see how they can just change the dates and expect us to make it. thank goodness i'm only shopping later. not so darned early like at 2, so i can still meet geok. i just hope it doesn't drag. sheesh.
today we had the first interactive session with the sec 2s. really, u don't know people till u talk to them one on one. and talking to bridget was really interesting. we have pretty common goals. like we both want to be gynaecologists. but of course, i want to be a big-shot manager or an actress too. but gynae is closes to what i like to do and is more real than being an actress. i can't wait to talk to everyone. i'm sure i'll find really interesting personalities.
aye. i just want to shop!! this is a really bad habit.

end of tests for the week! woohoo! am feeling happier coz of the tests. and i just had a long long talk like 1hr with my ex-classmate from primary school. val.it's great talking to her. i still keep in contact with my primary friends. the really close ones. and she's really close to me. we were laughing and complaining and groaning and she was asking me to her school's funfair. frankly i don't wanna go. not really keen. but i guess i'm going to have to go, we'll see but considering she is val, i'll prolly be dragged into it. :P
i realise that i just study to get myself through the tests and then i slack off the week and i'll pick up again on fri or sat.
i'm going to relax tonight. aye. if only i can convince my mom to watch pearl harbor. it's so beautiful. anyway, i desperately need to go out. i used to be contented staying home. coz i can read and such. but i can't kick the habit of shopping. i so desperately need to shop. i just need to go out. preferably tomorrow.
mothers' day is this sunday. i've thought of the perfect gift for mom. she's always packing and packing. some compulsive habit which she can't keep. really obsessed with neatness and always has to be kept occupied. i prefer relaxing though. so mom doesn't know how to relax. when she takes leave, she goes and packs the shoe cabinet or the files or something. my mothers' day gift is gonna be a voucher for body shop. so she'll have to buy something to relax herself. probably 20 bucks or something. it they don't have the voucher, then i'll pick something out. yup.
tomorrow is npcc day. gosh gotta wear the full-U. sigh. i really don't wanna do that. i guess i don't have a choice. coz it's warm and the beret gives me a headache. a big bad headache. had it on saturday. :(

gosh. if i'm going to fall sick. then why can't i just fall sick straight. it's so long and draggy. first i will get phlegm, then i'll lose my voice. then i'll get better than i'll get worse. if i can miss school when i'm sick, i'm like virtually mildly sick all the time. the 2 tests today were like so-so. not fantastic not too bad.
napping this afternoon made me positively sure that i'm falling sick. the u can't move kind of sick.i'm even losing my voice at a super slow rate.
and, i've been downloading american idol songs. i don't understand why i can't find the ones sung by the idols. they sound better that the original singer. sighx.

aye. to the sec 1s who came to my blog. sorry if you guys saw some non-too-pleasing comments. yesterday was indeed a pretty taxing day. maybe you guys can put in more effort and show that you can give your best.
hmmx. some things i'll need to clarify with daphne and minmin, one is that they will learn MOI during recess, we'll try to talk to them personally, and when is the make-yp for the campcraft test and when are they going for live shoot at the police academy. i want the sec 2s to turn out as a great batch.
today was a really long day. started out by waking at 6.15am and rushed to church for mass at 7 am. i ate some big meat pau for breakfast at 8am while studying social studies at the church and trying to pass time till 9am for the facilitators' meeting. finished about 5 pages of social studies. 9am, we had our facilitators' meeting for the level camps for about 2 hrs. i'm going for the sec 2 camp. then from 11am-1pm, i had my catechism classes. wrote the letter to the archbishop. ;earnt some stuff about confirmation gifts. i guess the gifts i want the most are counsel/understanding:meaning able to understand the Bible and people better. courage: to be able to uphold correct value and be proud to be a Catholic. right judgement: to be able to tell right from wrong. these matter the most i guess. well, that's all the church stuff for today.
headed home and had lunch then i napped for about 40min. rushed off to maths tuition at my aunt's house and did 35 maths questions in logarithms differentiation. then chatted with jiayan about a book for about 30min. had dinner. studied social studies for an hour and finished it. then chatted with jiayan about the book again. it's now 9.55pm and i just wanna get home and bathe and sleep.
broke some records yesterday and today. yesterday was one of the few times where i started studying for a test more than a day in advance and the only time i had ever finished the studying more than just the day before. same for today, i finished studying for the social studies too. i shan't start on chinese till tomorrow.
hmmm...in addition to vcds, i guess i'll like to get queen of camelot by nancy mckenzie too. sigh. i just don't understand why people need so little and desire and want such a great many things. shocking, ain't it?
