But siians, projects coming up. CME and Maths projects. But it's all about art and craft so it's alright. Hehs, at least I not need to create rampage over the internet for some crappy information. 0-0
Nowadays, I'm just lazing around. Not really perked up or doing any homework man. Budden, with basketball and french, it's just nice I guess. =)
RECORDS day!
Tomorrow's the records day! Woah! I volunteered to join the sms and m&m-eating records. Hehs, I super enthusiastic horh? Anyway, it sounds fun. But after reading the RULES, I found out that.....
we had to READ THE TEXT FOR 10 SECs, and sms it out!!Can you believe it??!! I think it's just crazy.
I thought we could like look at the text and sms. Budden, it was totally different!
Gahs, but it's just simply too late to back out. But I wonder how's the experience like... XD!!

Flu Oh shit! Flu man! At this untimely time??!!
Guess the rain in the morning did me great. Siians. NOw whenever I do some crappy stuff, within 10 seconds, I'll sneeze. And get ready...
AHHHH CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Oops, sorry.
Anyways, let's do a poll man.
Flu or sore throat?
Hahs. I choose sore throat. The most, I don't talk lorhs. Although it would kill me lahs. But at least it won't really affect my work. except that I would feel thirsty now and then. X(
But heys, I'm feeling thirsty now man. So it doesn't really make me feel BETTER.
French test
This time, I dare not luan luan lai. Studied the conjugaison properly and heys, they turned out to test rather a lot on that! If you study that well, perhaps you can pass.
Hahs, I did not past the previous one so well, I know the feeling of failing tests, people! XD
But it just so happened that I caught the flu in my dad's car. So that's perhaps why I got flu.
Air Con + Post symptoms of flu = TERRIBLE FLU
TALK
I shouldn't really be talking a lot on my blog.
Extracted from a talk today.
Okeh, the talk today was talking about how blogs can affect our lives and how we are revealing too much stuff on the blog. And heys, perhaps I'm doing so but I don't feel bad revealing this kinda of stuff!
It's also some type of method to catch up with your pals horh? XD
And the whole talk was about some examples of misuse of blogs and how some people can become so FAMOUS after they started blogging.
Some simple examples: Xiaxue and MR Brown.
But Mr Brown's website is darn farni. The podcasts and everything..... Although his comments per posts cannot be compared to Xiaxue, his podcasts are rather entertaining. =) And well, sometimes racial.
And that whole talk eated into our time man. Gave me 15 minutes less to revise my French. XD I seem to be super nervous about this french stuff. And heys, it's upon 70 marks. How can I not BE NERVOUS??!!
Plus the last few days of relaxing was like freaking me out. I just didn't have the mood to revise so well, what's the use of forcing myself to revise??!!
That's all for now. Post more interesting stuff in the future. I really enjoyed the last email. XD The one about customer feedback. That was super FARNI lorhs.
Hope to be able to find more such emails in the future. 0-0 XD

I'm shitted!
Just realised that I didn't do my history reflection. And it just completely slipped off my mind man. And to think I audi-ed the whole day without even doing it. Damn, I feel guilty. And bloody hell, the most important thing is that I DIDN'T EVEN THOUGHT OF IT. It's not that I slacked or what so ever, but I'm completely pissed with my memory. X(I'm shitted!
There's a lot of topics man. WARNING:! This post may be long.
English VS Chinese
Hahs. I wonder how this topic came out. I think it started with me commenting about french then Grace saying that if there was a subject that she could don't learn, it would be Chinese. Then it was windz saying how she agree and how English rock. Hahs, then Meng come saying that CHINESE ROCKED??!!
But frankly speaking, I feel more at ease speaking English. And heys, english is easier to explain how you're feeling. Have you ever tried conversing in Chinese before? I tell you ahs, it's super super siians.
Conversation in English: This is common
PERSON-01:hi.Hehe. XD
PERSON-02: hellos!
PERSON-01: long time never chat le siia. How're you?
PERSON-02: okehs lahs. Although school sometimes suck. But heys, basketball rulez!
Conversation in Chinese: Prepare for the attack of small, teeny-weeny words!
PERSON-01: 你好!Ni2 hao3!The han yu pin yin is for those who can't read Chinese on the com! And hahs, have a nice time translating them. =)
PERSON-02: 嗨!Hai4!
PERSON-01: 很久没有跟你聊了。你怎么样?Hen2 jiu3 mei2 you3 gen1 ni2 liao2 le4. Ni3 zen2 me yang4?
PERSON-02: 不错啦。虽然有时候学校上课不好玩。可是,篮球永远就是那么好玩!Bu4 cuo4 la4. Sui1 ran2 you3 shi2 hou4 xue2 xiao4 shang4 ke4 bu4 hao3 wan2. Ke3 shi4, lan2 qiu2 yong2 yuan3 jiu4 shi4 na4 me hao2 wan3!
Omg man, I shivered. Hahs.
See what I mean? You can't feel the casual sense when you converse in Chinese! And heys, the words are sooooo teeny-weeny.
And heys, most subjects in Singapore is taught in English because Singapore thinks that English is more important.
But in countries like China and Taiwan, things are not the case. So well, you can't really say which language is more important. But then, to some people, Chinese gives them a feeling of home. Like if you find people who speak Chinese more often, you feel more connected and find that there is at least something in common. XD Gotch it?
Haiihs, but other than that, I just wish that Singapore can change the government system like take Chinese as a second language after leaving primary school. In that way, we just need to learn the basics of Chinese and not make it a need to further it unless you want to. That sounds perfect right? XD
Changing your blogskin
This is sort-of tutorial or whatever you call it. Actually, I think I did a tutorial on this before le. Nevermind, I'll do it again. Actually, changing the blogskin is super easy. Just copy and paste.
Hahs, screenshots time. I think I did not do screenshots for about three months le. XD
- Go to Blogskins. Diiaox right? I mean, this is the FIRST, MOST BASIC STEP. Hahs=)
You'll see something like that:
Navigate the website yourself and find a blogskin that you like. - Click on the blogskin that you like and I think you'll see a big picture of the blogskin. Click it again. Then scroll down to find something like this:
Click on Blogger Main and a note will pop up. Copy the note and paste it on your template. - Then, save changes and finish liao lorhs!
Simple right? This tutorial is actually a super lousy one. Isn't detailed at all but then, I've no time liaos.
I'm rushing my blog post man. 0-0
That's all for now. And heys, if I can finally think of what I actually wanted to blog, I'll update this blog post or create a new one perhaps. =))
If not, I gotcha go finish my history reflection liaos. Siians. X(
Oh yahs, french test tomorrow. Wish me good luck! Try not to fail it. Hehs.
And Meng, all the best! =)

Witnessed historyToday was basketball practice. And well, you'll expect the old routine. Run, pass, rest, run, pass, rest. Siians. Jiaqi injured her arm though. Just pa! And fell. And her hand was numb I guess. She had to put a cast near the wrist of her hands. She fell during the back-pedalling practice. Woah mans.
But frankly speaking, I was reminded of my bloody idiotic experience of my ligament. How I sprained it and how GREAT I'm today.
I'm extremely reminded of that bloody experience when I was trying to pass Nigel during the recess-time-playing and I just sprained it. And God, he did not even come close to me. He was just like about two feet away from me? And I just sprained it. My foot movement sucked at the start so I guess that was a lesson to me bahs. Anyway, that was LONG LONG AGO. during last year's national day celebration I guess.
But after that, I still continued to play basketball two or three days after the incident as it was not painful anymore. Plus, I went to the sinseh so I thought the whole thing was okay. Well, it WASN'T.
And I experienced repeated ones and since then, I lost hope on my bloody ligament. So now, during basketball practice, I put a knee guard on my knee and walaos, it looks like a bandage on my knee as if I injured my knee. BUt it's a guard. Not protection or wrappings to protect the knee from further injuries after injuring it. And well, it does really help. XD. I didn't hurt my ligament anymore even during times I knew I would if I didn't wear the guard. =D
So I guess during the inter-class crap, I've to wear the knee guard if I'm participating bahs.
Anyway, back to story, I just wish that Jiaqi take care of her wrist lorhs. XD I don't wanna see somebody have the same thing like me. I tell you, the darned feeling sucks.
Oh yeah, Joy too. Jiayous to your ankle!! XD Just think that it rocks then I guess it would be alright! Psycological means! =D Frankly speaking, I think psycology rocks.
Sakae Sushi
You know what? DHS has sakae sushi! Wahahs, we called the vendor to come over and sell their sushi. And the queue is soooooo loooonnnnggg. And expensive. I just tried a few and stopped. Waste of money.
But it's rather nice to have something unique in our school. =D I bet nobody has Sushi in their school horh?
Edits again
I just edited the about-me blog. Hahs, editing. Thanks to no-homework today, I did a lot of editing. And I tell you, I seemed to understand myself even better! =D Just spent only about 1 hour on it. And I don't think it's a waste of time. It's at least better than playing audition.
Audition is just for me to relax. =))
And yeah, I was editing it while waiting for the powerpoint presentation to upload. Gosh, it uploads so sll...ooo....www
I feel like changing my layout but I like this clean layout. It gives me enough space to blog and the size that it provides is just enough for me to blog pictures of size 400X300. I don't really like blogging small-sized pictures. =)
And plus, it's simple.
I don't understand why people like complicated blog layouts. And small wordings. With less space. Gosh, it just defeats the purpose.
That's all for now. Gotcha go sleep. French tomorrow. And I gonna say hello to boring lessons. 0-0
9:55 PM | | Link
DON'T ever say "It's none of my business"
DON'T ever say "It's none of my business"
"IT'S NONE OF MY BUSINESS Go find other people."
Heys, this is just something almost everybody likes to say. I mean, when you feel irritated or are doing something, you'll just say that. Or something like: "GET LOST. I don't think I know you.
Hahs, that's just fake. I just wanna make this blog post seem more interesting. =D
BUt frankly speaking, when we are so busy tending to our own businesses, it's always a wonder how we would want to help people. I mean, you can't even fend for yourself and you wanna help others? Gosh, it's just shit!
I must admit I'm that kind who would settle my things first before helping others. Unless I can multi-task, I would suggest ways to the person instead of helping that person out. But is that considered helping? 0-0
An example of "not-helping": From an email. AGAIN. Hehs. XD
MOUSE STORYA mouse looked through the crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package.
"What food might this contain?" The mouse wondered -he was devastated to discoverit was a mousetrap.
Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed the warning.
"There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!"
The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, "Mr. Mouse, I can tell this is a grave concern to you but it is of no consequence to me. I cannot be bothered by it."
The mouse turned to the pig and told him, "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!"
The pig sympathized Note that it's not the word EMPATHIZED, but said, "I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse, but there is nothing I can do about it but pray. Be assured you are in my prayers."
The mouse turned to the cow and said, "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!" The cow said, "Wow, Mr. Mouse. I'm sorry for you, but it's no skin off my nose."
So, the mouse returned to the house, head down and dejected, to face the farmer's mousetrap-- alone. That very night a sound was heard throughout the house -- like the sound of a mousetrap catching its prey. The farmer's wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did not see it was a venomous snake whose tail the trap had caught.
The snake bit the farmer's wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital and she returned home with a fever. Everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup's main ingredient. But his wife's sickness continued, so friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig.
The farmer's wife did not get well; she died.
So many people came for her funeral, the farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide enough meat for all of them.
The mouse looked upon it all from his crack in the wall with great sadness.
So, the next time you hear someone is facing a problem and think it doesn't concern you, remember -- when one of us is threatened, we are all at risk. We are all involved in this journey called life. We must keep an eye out for one another and make an extra effort to encourage one another.
SEND THIS TO EVERYONE WHO HAS EVER HELPED YOU OUT AND LET THEM KNOW HOW IMPORTANT THEY ARE.
REMEMBER: EACH OF US IS A VITAL THREAD IN ANOTHER PERSON'S TAPESTRY; OUR LIVES ARE WOVEN TOGETHER FOR A REASON.
Lalahs, well, it's another email again. I'm so bored that I can hardly breathe. XD. I feel like posting another post. ABOUT TODAY. ABOUT MYSELF. =)

March Holi-es
Sigh. HOlidays are just so boring lorhs.March Holi-es
Hothouse crap
Just went to Huiwen's house to create a hothouse that doesn't really conduct a lot of heat. Frankly speaking, I do really find it a lame stuff. And we spent a whole lot of time on the styrofoam board cutting, the pasting of papers, doing things here and there. And it was tiring. Super tiring. But after that we went to play basketball so it wasn't that bad except for puddles of dirty water and arrogant guys invading the basketball courts, trying to show off their bloody freaking talents. Of course, their chops are sometimes really amazing... -_-'''
Basketball practice
What can i say about it? Fun? INteresting? Stressing? Tiring? Anyway, it's a great time to break away from stupid chunks of homework and also at the same time, keep fit.
I don't even care if the name of our basketball team is not like very pro or what, but I LOVE our team! I mean, we are so super united and the feeling of embracing is super nice. Although sometimes there are misunderstandings. =((
Muahahas, but from what I observe of my friends, their CCAs' seniors are rather distant. So with that, BASKETBALL STILL ROCKS!@! =)) I mean, with lesser players or rather, teammates, you will find some time to get closer to each other right? it's definitely different from Girl Guides or Symphonic Bands where you have few hundreds of pupils joining. =))
New haircut and new specs!!
Wee! I had a haircut and now, my ponytail is a pathetic short one. Lalalas, but it's for my comfort. I mean, during basketball practice when I bounce the ball, the STUPID PONYTAIL would get entwined round my necks and what I get? A horsetail? WAHAHAS, but a small ponytail is lighter and easier to manage. =)) Especially in the mornings, I do not need to bother much with the hair, although sometimes the short hair would like stick out??
And specs...!! Got plastic kinds yesterday. But the specs have not really come yet. It's COLOURFUL and suits me!~!! =)) Hengies that Dunman gives the students freedom of speech the most so whatever colour is alright!
Anyway, they're just specs. 0-0
New keyboard!! Wheee!!
Now, compare this:

www.comfortkeyboard.com/Industrial-keyboards.html
With this:

click on this for the url. It's too long...0-0
The soft keyboard is funkier and more useful right?
That's what my dad bought for me because my sis was complaining how it affected HER WONDERFUL DREAMS when I used the computer late at night. IT's not really bad lorhs. Just about 11:30?? P.M.
And it doesn't make sound at all!! It's soft and spongy so it just reflect back and NO SOUND IS MADE!! Sounds wonderful ehs?
NO NO NO!
One thing bad is that it's very difficult to type with it. Because it's rather shallow so sometimes when you key the letters in, the letters do not "appear". That's when you really have to type it slower and harder. But other than that, everything's PERFECT. =D
Impersonation?? Fake de lahs
Geez, Xavier has been impersonating me and I would have had posted on my tagboard if I had come to my blog these few days but I was too busy watching TV and doing my stuff. So before I waited for my blog to load as my homepage, I simply typed in the url of youtube. =D Chasing Hanakimi mahs. But now I finish the whole episode and am finding what to do or watch next. 0-0
And hmmm, impersonation SUCKS. It's as if you have no name and you just feel like using another person's name to do something. Perhaps it's just meant to spice things up but it REALLY DOESN'T. Anyway, I'm glad there's no commotion because I would definitely be PISSED OFF.
Other than that, no comment. =)) Continue to be happy people!! XD SMILE!!
Class gathering... WHOOOTTSS!!
Weee, the class gathering was DAMN FUN! Except that there was only a pathetic number of 3 boys and the rest... GALS! Girls control the world!! Lalalahs.
Anyway, although there were very little games played and most of the time was spent on chatting about Hanakimi, or was it about Wu Chun? Hahas and eating, I still enjoyed myself THOROUGHLY. =D Food and food. I thank Syl's parents for hosting such a good class gathering man.... =D
And thanks to those who wished me happy b'day!! Lalas, thanks Meng, Jas, Khoon, Zhan, Joy and Sarah! Wahahas, happy b'dae to those whose birthdays are coming or yet to come or had already came! May this year be prosperous and urms... good for you?? Anyway, I hope this coming birthday would be nice, but it's nice every year...... Gaaa, nevermind, nice for everybody and stay happy...!!
Woosh! I said what I wanted to say le! In a post! This is my March Holidays summed up and well, basketball practice tomorrow so I guess I better scram.
P.S. The audition patches slow like shit. 0-0
P.S.S. I can't find the factors of radiation since 8 and it's rather irritating. Can internet websites stopPPPPP giving us those chim stuff??
P.S.S.S. I'm enjoying myself currently. Have not revised my french but I feel like joining the Audi-world. Lost touch with it for a long time but I long to get back to Hanakimi world.. =D
Oopsies, I was supposed to scram horhs? God bless that this blog post loads and not give me some shit like "The post was not published" or "an error has occurred". If not, well, I would be shitted. =(
For safety measures, I guess I copy the whole blog post first. =D

National Library totally rocks!
Just explored the national library with my friend and the reaction can only be...National Library totally rocks!
WOW!!
It was totally cool with 17 storeys, or was it 15 storeys? Anyway, it was so super high-class and the lift was so cool!
The glass panels were like transparent and the speed was rather fun so when you look out of the glass panels, the feeling is just simply...
EXHILARATING!
The escalators are cool too. Sensors activate the escalators and they will move. It's like about half a metre before the escalator, there's a sensor. So when somebody steps on it, the escalator will start moving. In other words, the escalators will stop moving after about 1 minute. It's just so creative and nice. Saves electricity too. =))
And I love the books there. Found one book labelled "Departed but not forgotten". It's about the IMPORTANT WOMEN of Chinese history who have sadly left this world but this book commemorates them. However, I found this thin book under the reference section so that simply means that I could not borrow it. However, I really thought it was a storybook at the first place. I mean, it was so thin and it did not even look like a reference book. The reference section itself was already soo...... BIG!
Hahs, I'm making a mountain out of a molehill here. Anyways, I gonna stick to the national library closely when I have time. =)) I gonna glue my eyes to the book. It looks fun to read. =))
I WANNA BORROW IT! Then I can read it during the long 45 minutes train ride. I'm reading "THE GOOD EARTH", literature book. Siians siiahs. IT's sooo thick and I hate the book totally.
THat's simply because women are treated like shit in the book. Then guys are the heaven while gals are well, soil? I not gonna say the world hell. Gals are more worthy. And women who don't bound their legs are considered UGLY. And those who bind their legs have the legs only the length of an adult's middle finger. Of course, that's a normal adult and not one who has abnormal finger growth, either it's too long or too short.
Anyway, I'm on my way to reading it so I guess I finish it bahs. =))
BTW, I heard from Syl that 3 teachers are invited to the class gathering. Mrs Chua, Mr Ren and MS WONG!!!!
Ahhhh, MS WONG!! Happy horhs?
But wait, here's the gist. Ms Wong has to go to Suzhou and there goes the opportunity to see her! Gosh, I feel so sad... =((
Anyway, Syl has not told me anything about the other two teachers but judging from this right, I doubt they'll be coming. I mean, it's so messy here and there, so most likely, it will purely be a class gathering. Pupils of 6A and always pupils of 6A.... =)) WE RULEZ!

Salty but useful
Lalala, it's emails again. This time, it's not so funny so well, just wanted to like inform your or let's say, increase your knowledge? Wahahas, anyway, I read until the 20th example and I stopped reading. This email I guess is just meant for lazy people who want to find shortcuts. Naturally, I'm a very hardworking person... (=P), although I practically copied and pasted the email. =))Salty but useful
Good tips .....
Although you may not realize it, simple table salt has a great number of uses other than simply seasoning your food.
The following list will give you sixty uses of salt, many of which you probably didn't realize :-
1. If you drop a whole egg on the floor, pour salt all over the egg, let it sit for awhile, then use dustpan, the egg will come right up, without all that mess.
2. Soak stained hankies in salt water before washing.
3. Sprinkle salt on your shelves to keep ants away.
4. Soak fish in salt water before decaling; the scales will come off easier.
5. Put a few grains of rice in your saltshaker for easier pouring.
6. Add salt to green salads to prevent wilting.
7. Test the freshness of eggs in a cup of salt water; fresh eggs sink; bad ones float.
8. Add a little salt to your boiling water when cooking eggs; a cracked egg will stay in its shell this way.
9. A tiny pinch of salt with egg whites makes them beat up fluffier.
10. Soak wrinkled apples in a mildly salted water solution to perk them up.
11. Rub salt on your pancake griddle and your flapjacks won't stick.
12. Soak toothbrushes in salt water before you first use them; they will last longer.
13. Use salt to clean your discolored coffee pot.
14. Mix salt with turpentine to whiten you bathtub and toilet bowl.
15. Soak your nuts in salt brine overnight and they will crack out of their shells whole. Just tap the end of the shell with a hammer to
break it open easily.
16. Boil clothespins in salt water before using them and they will last longer.
17. Clean brass, copper and pewter with paste made of salt and vinegar, thickened with flour.
18. Add a little salt to the water your cut flowers will stand in for a longer life.
19. Pour a mound of salt on an ink spot on your carpet; let the salt soak up the stain.
20. Clean your iron by rubbing some salt on the damp cloth on the ironing surface.
21. Adding a little salt to the water when cooking foods in a double boiler will make the food cook faster.
22. Use a mixture of salt and lemon juice to clean piano keys.
23. To fill plaster holes in your walls, use equal parts of salt and starch, with just enough water to make stiff putty.
24. Rinse a sore eye with a little salt water.
25. Mildly salted water makes an effective mouthwash. Use it hot for a sore throat gargle.
26. Dry salt sprinkled on your toothbrush makes a good tooth polisher.
27. Use salt for killing weeds in your lawn.
28. Eliminate excess suds with a sprinkle of salt.
29. A dash of salt in warm milk makes a more relaxing beverage.
30. Before using new glasses, soak them in warm salty water for awhile.
31. A dash of salt enhances the taste of tea.
32. Salt improves the taste of cooking apples.
33. Soak your clothesline in salt water to prevent your clothes from freezing to the line; likewise, use salt in your final rinse to prevent the clothes from freezing.
34. Rub any wicker furniture you may have with salt water to prevent yellowing.
35. Freshen sponges by soaking them in salt water.
36. Add raw potatoes to stews and soups that are too salty.
37. Soak enamel pans in salt water overnight and boil salt water in them next day to remove burned-on stains.
38. Clean your greens in salt water for easier removal of dirt.
39. Gelatin sets more quickly when a dash of salt is added.
40. Fruits put in mildly salted water after peeling will not discolor.

Hahs, to those who really finish reading it, I salute you!
P.S. I asked my sis and she said no one went back to school for the anniversary. Hahas, seems that it was a blessing in disguise. =)) And it seems that the whole school is not celebrating the school anniversary. It seems like it's only those people who are performing and all of them are going to Nan Chiau High. So it simply means that those primary ones, or lower primaries who don't get a chance to perform YET, will not know anything about anniversaries and they will be like, so left out?
Hmmmm, i still prefer the past Nan Chiau's way of celebration where everybody celebrates although the way of celebration is not so professional, the previous way of celebration makes people feel more bonded and the feeling which everybody is a family is at least present.
Enough of ranting and raving, I gotcha sleep liaos. I'm so happy today mans. Had a great laugh today and I will still grin when I think about it. hahas. =D
School's just so fun now. I LOVE SCHOOL! Apart from homework of course. But DEFINITELY NOT PROJECTS. Projects are cool.

Appreciate
It has really been some time since I blogged. Something personal, about myself. I did not really have the idea or thing to blog about and there I was, blogging about emails and I know, this is MY BLOG, so it's really time to blog something about MYSELF. Appreciate
Nothing's really happening in my life actually. Just some projects, projects and more projects!
Whoah!
I'm looking forward to the class gathering. Woahs, this March holidays are rather meaningful. I get to do a whole lot of crap and won't really have the time to laze around, dazing and slowly dozing off. zZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZ. Wahahs.
Saturday would be basketball practice and Sunday would be the class gathering. Then I would have camps and basketall practice here and there. Wow, I feel so shiokies. =)) Hehes
So, how's the class gathering going? Seems that not many people are going there. Some because of personal reasons or simply, the parents do not allow. Hehs, this just feels so sad. If only the parents and the classmates are "entu", then we can really have a REAL CLASS GATHERING then perhaps we can enjoy the feeling of 6A once again.
Frankly speaking, I kinda miss our class lorhs. Now, my present class is super luan. Wahahas, changing the whole class com and there are really some bloody irritating misunderstandings. I just can't understand why some people are just so sensitive. BAHHHSHHS, I'm just so irritated. Siianies. And there are some stupid distractions. =((
And i'm getting very sleepy during lessons.
The LA teacher is boring man!
I miss ms Kheng! Oopsies, maybe i should say that I'm not used to the new LA teacher's way of teacher? It's just super siians. =(( Getting rather sleepy nowadays. Lalalahs, just got some minty sweets to pop into my mouth to keep my awake. You know, the kinda of WALAO, SUPER HOT!! de. Hehes, although we aren't allowed to eat during lessons, I guess the teachers would understand if they know the reason behind me doing so. =))Teachers are understanding.....
Tomorrow's Nan Chiau's _ _th school aniversary. Oh mee gosh, i can't remember the number!! Oh me gosh, fancy me being the Nan Chiau's ex-school member. Lalahas, and present alumni horhs? Nevermind, I just get some people to inform me on the tagboard and quickly edit this post before any other people read them and feel so disappointed. Heh. Feel so sad and remorseful Are they about the samEe?? because I can't go. Got basketball practice and I think not many people are going too. So that really defeats the purpose. And now, the stupid procedure is so troublesome that going back to school is not really an enjoyable thing. It really isn't.
Imagine that you going back to school is to give some excitement and surprise to somet teachers whom you really wanna make them like "Wow, you are back! Patriotic to your school horh?", but you call them down to fetch you INTO THE SCHOOL, how exciting and surprising would that be huh? May I ask?
Obviously, you would be more surprised if you suddenly pop up beside them in the stuff room right? Maybe they would be scared to death? And I would also like to see the celebration for the anniversary. Suddenly, I am looking forward to celebrations at NC. In the past, celebrations or assembly periods were just boring ones right? Everyone would be dreading to go to the hall where you will be squashed into pancakes and your butt would feel so flat suddenly when you leave the hall. OH yahs, your limbs and feet would feel numb as though a thousand of ants are savouring your legs.
Sorry for being gross.... 0-0 =P
Sigh, guess this is what they really mean like you will appreciate something only when you lose it.
But I think I better appreciate secondary school life now. Later when it's gone and I'm an old auntie, looking at teenagers going to school, at that time, I would be so envious of them and be reminiscing about secondary school. Hahas, then I will wish to become younger and younger while teenagers nowadays which to become older and older. To be more mature. Yeah, mature, that's the word.
I have to go off liaos. Homework waiting for me. -_-. Anyway, appreciate it.
Whatever the word IT is, well, think of that yourself. =))
