the "golden" certificate
received bro's graduation certificate. one "heavy" paper mailed in a hard cardboard envelope with big letters"DO NOT FOLD" stamped on it. together with order forms on how you can frame it.

its as if your life depends on it and you musn't lose them because it represents your future. the first thing job interviewers will do is to look at the university you indicated in your application form. sometimes even by just entering to a well known university and graduate with flying colours, helps you to carve out your future.

my mum said,"this is such an expensive paper"
at first i didnt really understand but i finally understood what she meant after a while.
3-4 years in the university . all the fees and the preparation and the hardwork put in just to obtain that recognition, that paper. that heavy,expensive but a very important paper.

ALONE AT NIGHT
i hope i can be a nocturnal animal.
sleep in the day and work at night.
everytime when i stayed up late, i will love to look out of the window.
for some reasons,i will feel very calm.
all i see are rooms where the lights are off and almost everyone is sleeping.
its as if i have the whole area to myself.
the sky is dark .
very few cars passing by and the trains have stopped operating.
the whole area is SO QUIET.
the only thing i can hear is either the sounds from the engines of my aircon or from the fan

this is the best time for me to think and study.
quiet,peaceful,alone.
I LOVE IT :D

1 day more for my SAT results, 2 days more for my brother to come back, 4 days more to my first paper.
my brother is like a math genius. almost for all his math exams throughout his life he scores nearly full marks. SO... i hope that his return can bring good luck for my math!because i REALLY NEED IT! :)

BRAIN CONGESTION!
woke up at 1pm , surprised that my mum didnt woke me up . haha i guess she knew that i was very tired . usually i wake up at 9 but today i just want to wake up late and rest more. geography,economice is really tiring me out. i need to memorize so MANY LECTURES. average of 10 lects for 5 categories of geography. well for mid years ,our teachers were kind enough to remove some lectures out of mid years but can you imagine for prelims and Alevels , we need to memorize an average of 10 lects for 6 categories of geography?! im trying to enjoy the subject so that i can memorize more but sometimes its just too much. everytime before our geography exam starts , everyone will be saying how tired their brains are when they woke up in the morning because everyone will be revising ALL LECTURES before they sleep. if any friends of yours taking geography or history or literature or biology exams , make sure you dont irritate them before their exams or else they will be super annoyed with you hahahaha thank goodness geog is my first exam, because i cant wait for it to be over first! only then my brain will be relaxed and will have more space for economics.

going back into the pool of geography,economics and math lectures!

Damn. no more extended holidays.
happy because we can finish our exams asap and i cant wait for racial harmony celebrations to hear jo sing :D and i cant wait for sports games day because ive been anticipating it eversince the pe teachers told us the date.
somehow sad because i havent finished studying geog(population, hydrology, globalisation) and a still have a bit more for econs and math. SO now im only left with 6 MORE DAYS AHHH!
got to rush now!

yay! went to the doctor, nothing serious happen to me! :D

sleepover last thursday!
study/watch movie/gossip/sleep session last thursday in steph's house with claud,shiuan,jo and steph :)sadly, shiuan and claud couldnt sleep over :( we studied in the afternoon, felt quite weird when the everyone was so quiet because usually we will be talking haha watched "wildchild" and "bride wars" at night. bride wars wasnt that nice because the whole story wasnt that appealing. somehow the ending was good because emma didnt marry her bf instead she married her bestfriend's YOUNGER brother( jo and steph thinks he is cute but i dont lol)but... i still expected a different one haha wild child was good! it makes me want to enter girls boarding schools. ive always wanted to be in those schools but singapore doesnt have those kind of schools right?
we were suppose to study all the way till 12 after watching those movies(btw it was after we send off claud and shiuan) but in the end , we end up learning the hoedown showdown dance steps(jo! i still cant remember the steps!) and TRICKING RYAN ON MSN :D. im surprised he didnt even know that those conversations were typed by 3 different people. each of us have different styles of writing but he couldnt realise it! hahahaha!!! after that we went to steph's room to talk till 4AM . hahaa we talked for so long! BUT this time we didnt gossip, we just had a normal talking session lol oh and im not going to eat anymore chips at night because it gives my stomach a uncomfortable feeling lol i wonder how come people can even eat supper at night. hehe sorry shiuan, i still ate chips in the end:P we forgot to take pictures! D: oh and throughout the whole stay over, my brother called me 2 times just to tell me when he is coming to singapore and TEASE ME LOL!

been coughing throughout the whole holiday. been eating medicine everyday. accidentally passed them to jo. and now im having flu. i really hope i dont get a fever!

BBQ ON SUN , DINNER ON MON :D
it was suppose to be a j2 farewell bbq which the j1s helped to pay for our food and planned it for us. THANKS ALOT,J1s!! BUT... all the j2 girls couldnt make it soooo i went there and represented them lol i was the only j2 girl :( and i had to guide the guys to ecp haha but nevermind, the guys went and im close to some of the j1s so i went to talk to them:) thanks to angeline for spending time with me at the beach, i still remember the terrible things that happen to me at the break water. a moth contaminated two cups of my drinks. and we saw rats running around so we decided not to sit there anymore lol spent most of my time cooking because its so fun! its my first time trying :D mathew and wenjie were helping me too,they were super funny . leslie became the cook and jason became the fire person lol there was once when i looked back, i see the j2 guys socializing with the j1s girls haha volleyball guys ah tsk tsk :D the guys are really crazy , they stayed there till morning with their drinks haha i wonder who cleaned up everything? :/

similar to yesterday , i nearly became the only girl who is going for the angel mortal gathering . suppose to be cancelled but luckily sam can make it . sam, me , jon, marcus, zt , varun (made a new friend) went. unfortunately clare, germaine and eugene couldnt make it. you didnt even tell me that you are not going:/ we talked till 11 i think . haha quite interesting to hear about all their stories of their days spent in ns, about how they always hang out with guys only hahaha. if you had come today, we could have a long talk , wonder how you've been . made a promise with them, after my As we must go out for night cycling and pulau ubin! thanks for the lending me the cd, jon! :)

only 2 weeks left! study study!

finally, for once sf,jianli,char and me went out to study. eversince february we wanted to plan one study group but it was always cancelled because everyone is busy during those months. haha i was given a chance to do something that i always wanted to do but i blow it lol everyone waited for me to say ok but i refuse to . i think im just not brave enough to do it. but oh wells , there is always another chance i hope haha i think we studied for 5 hours in lido. as usual , there were a few cj people there . sf keep disturbing charmaine, influenced her to buy more food lol pity her for sitting infront of him . SF! next time break your record and study 5 hours straight!

today we went for our weekly exercise! this time its batminton! im still surprised that damian came all the way to marine parade to play badminton with me char and felly but its good for him haha he really needs a exercise. gave him 3 morning calls but none were picked up. i thought he was still sleeping but surprisingly he woke up already haha we played for 3 hours i think, few breaks in between. playing with damian is SERIOUSLY TIRING! he keep doing those tricks ! damian, one day noone will ever be willing to play badminton with you already hahaha
went for lunch and walked in ecp after that. heard damian "whining" all the way because he is so tired of walking. he decided to take a cab to go back home and since he is willing to drop by my house, i hop on too hehe THANKS DAMIAN :) im quite happy about today because im always telling my secrets to these 3 people in class :)

im so glad i got that off my mind and everything still remains the same:)

higher mother girls!!
met up with weizhen, jiajia, and boon today! well, the others couldnt make it but.. almost all the noisy ones came! haha except joey, angellina and yuen ying. why three of you didnt come today:( miss you all so much! i tried to convince yy but in the end i guessed she had something on so couldnt come. haha although joey said she might come after her lesson, she still didnt call weizhen, and angellina got camp WWHHHYYY...

anyway
thanks to weizhen for shopping with me after our lunch!
and i really had a great lunch with boon and jia . we kept laughing non stop till we couldnt tell our own stories lol especially for boon, she was crazy , kept laughing at whatever we say ( haha i think she is just too happy to see us :D)
i hope this isn't the last gathering before our As, although i think it will be lol haha if there is time after prelims which i dont think there is, we must plan a gathering again! :)

hope all my other kc frens are doing well in school ! sometimes i just feel like setting up a kc hostel for all of us so that we can always support each other, study, play at all times.
oh wells, sometimes being in a girl school is still better, because the friendships forged are going to last FOREVER! if im coming back to singapore , im coming back for them ! if anyone ever asked me what will replace my secondary school friends , i think my answer will be NOTHING :D because for most of them , we have been in the same primary and secondary school. though we might not be in the same clique in primary school, we became close friends in secondary school so it makes no difference! personally i just feel that all kc girls in our batch are great!

haha dont get me wrong, friendships in mixed school can last too :)

HAHA

i agree to what jo said and yup i should listen to her.

GATHERINGS!
higher mother tongue girls! remember we will have a gathering on monday!

:D :D

oh and i just found out , globalisation,population, urbanisation, hydrosphere and atmosphere are all tested for geography!! shit haha

finally we celebrate steph's birthday
today wasn't that bad , watched aliens vs monsters!! we took super long to decide whether we should watch this or the conspiracy. qi neng tried to talk alot of crap to persuade us into watching conspiracy but failed haha in the end we decided to watch that instead since both joshua and steph chose monster vs aliens. the movie was quite funny, especially the monster bob!! super lame and funny!! hahaha jo and i added our own stuff into the movie so we laughed alot throughout the movie lol we imagine those monsters as the guys because whatever said by them sounded familiar . bob as junkai,ryan, qi neng and ah long , alien as ah long and jo, coakroach as qi neng and link as ryan hahaha the moment i imagine them inside the movie , i will laugh again hahaha surprisingly, clara and steph nearly slept lol

after the movie , jo, me and ryan went off to buy cheese cake for her when they went up to the sky park. wanted to surprise her but in the end as usual , she saw us hiding behind and trying to light up her cake haha HOPE YOU STILL ENJOYED THE SURPRISE! all of us talked till 7 then went home :)
pictures with shiu an
and i think im having a bit of flu and cough.

on saturday after my lesson , i went to meet up with volleyball friends to go joshua's house. his house is really far, wonder how he get home fast everyday. all thanks to shuian(:P) , we were 1 hr late(her house near our meeting place somemore lol). anyway long has this really cute dog. most importantly she doesnt bark at all because i dont really like dogs that bark. it scares me haha joshua! i still dont know when it is your birthday! i only know is this week... we thought this is going to be your birthday party so we wrote you a card but apparently its just a bbq party lol but still want to wish you HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PANDA! hahaha
okay i have learnt my lesson. i shouldnt have went to the park with them . went home pretty late(really late!). thanks to ryan for accompanying me!when i had to take a taxi since i couldnt get on a train which will bring me back home. hehe took the chance to ask him some questions :P

tomorrow we are going to celebrate stephanie's birthday! bought her a present today with joanne and claudia. studied with them and motivated by claudia when i heard how long she studies everyday. yup claud, must go pass the C mark this time! met kenneth and yun xing at starbucks :) we talked to yun xing and still find her as pretty as last time . lol i forgot to ask kenneth hows his life in poly but he looks like he is having a pretty good time in poly. anyway for tomorrow, we feel like trying to trick stephanie into a horror movie , but jo said she doesnt get tricked easily haha oh wells we will just see how everything goes tomorrow! meeting a big group tomorrow( jo, mel, me, shuian, claud, clara, steph,ryan,junkai,qi neng, joshua)girls outnumber the guys as usual!! hope we can get seats for movies and lunch!
