hi today i went out with Juline..sharina was supposed to come also but last min she had to go visit her uncle....so it was just the two of us...was supposed to eat oreo cheese cake but i forgot to bring the voucher, yup dumb me. the main purpose of the outing and i forgot the most important element, nvm we decided to walk from ps to orchard and we made our way to heeren to walk and also to look for the Gift A Name shop but we couldn't find it there so we made our way to Kovan.then she wanted to get something for netty(wah juline really spoils her sister) to encourage her for her exams...how sweet. so we walked around and found ourselves at Mini Toons where she bought her a keychain tat jesslyn also has.i saw a really nice mickey mouse handphone key chain but by gosh it was 13 bucks! and it was not big at all! so i did not buy. then we were really thirsty sowe went to KFC to have a drink and we shared cheesefries, then talked and talked and then juline said she wanted to buy someting for herself and i wanted to also. we walked around all day and din get anything for ourselves...so we made our way back to mini toons were after much deliberation and consultation i decided tat i would buy the keychain(ididnt want to spend so much money)....so i bought that and juline bought herself a nice blue hairband.....
i bought:
shoe laces-$1.50
Mickey Mouse key chain-$12.95
Meal with jules-$2.80
Total-$17.25(aahhhh!)
then we made our way to farrer park where i walked juline to the bus stop so that she could take the bus home(duh!) and then i walked home....we didnt do anything much today just walk here and there i think if it was the three of us it would be a whole lot more fun.
Anyway i dont really like taking money from my parents...i mean i dont hate it that they give me money for allowance and wen i need it but i feel really guilty about it like im taking from them and not giving back. i mean they dont just cover my allowance, they pay for my school fees, my violin lessons, my fencing training and my taekwondo fees...plus im sure theres alot more....and on top of that they still need to pay for my Oldest brother's university fees and all his other stuff and not forgetting that my second brother will be going into the university next yr. we're not a well off family, we're a working class family but it still is a big burden on their backs to have to pay for all of this and still take care of household bills and car bills and trying their bests to help our grandparents......i mean i really want to work so that maybe i can help take some of that pressure of of them but after thinking abt it i realised i really dont have the time this yr......i have:
SYF rehersals
Trip To India with school
Taekwondo orientation practise
Extended curriculam
possibly a battlefield guide trip to fort serapong
and wen the new yr starts
IRP(intensive revison programme)
SYF
sec1 orientation performance for tkd
Tkd competition in june
and not forgetting the most important of all O-LEVELS
there is probably a whole lot more and i really wanna work hard next yr so that i will do well for my Os and get in JC with a good L1R5......how can i stay comitted to a job with all these things in between? i mean i dont think its fair to the employers also rite? so i guess i have to put the job thing on hold until all of this finishes and i'm not going to give up on any one of them cause these are committments tat i have made and i intend to keep them....i just have to save money and not use it any old how. i wanna be able to grow up make a name for myself so that i can help support both my parents and grandparents(if they're still around)....u noe come to think of it i actually have been having this idea in my head for quite some time now and maybe i havent exactly worked out the fundementals of it but i think it could be successful with the right attitude but i really dont noe if i should make this a reality.....it'll be risky rite? but lifes abt taking risk.....hopefully i can do it one day its got to do with something i am really interested in......i still wanna get a job and not ask my parents for money...i think this mindset come with growing up,tending to want to be more independant and self-sufficient.....well if only money really did grow on trees...
PS: i found out tat someone got retained....so sad for her hopefully this will wake her its another chance for her

hi really late but nvm, today was a pretty eventful day though i stayed home the entire time. Ok today while i was watching "high school musical" for the 100th time my uncle came by to drop off shelves and a bed frame and my parents weren't home, so me and my brothers had to rush to my parents room and move everything and my uncle looked around and said "wow u guys dont have a habit of arranging things isit?" and my brothers said "pretty much" and we started laughing, after that the movers put up the bed frame and put the mattress on. then i continued to watch the movie, then went up for lunch. ok then went i came back down the shelves were still in the hall and they're pretty big and my mom said she was gonna put one in my room so i could use it to hold my books and then give one table to my brother cause hes in uni and needs more space, so i wanted to measure how tall the shelf was and i didnt have a measuring tape so i did wat any logically person would do, i used my hand to measure the height of the shelf and then i kinda moved to my room with my hand stuck in the air luck some pelican and measured, my second brother saw this and started laughing and giving his usual comments "u noe tats why we have MEASURING tapes" ok and then subequantley a whole lot of things happened and it was really hilarious that i found that i was laughing at myself at one point. yes As annoying as my brothers are, they are always able to entertain me and keepme laughin, though i didnt go out anywhere i really enjoyed the day at home actually having both of my siblings there as well. kenny actually wanted me to come out and hang out with him,jeff and kevin but so late wen he called i had no mood to so said no and plus i had to clean my table of my books and papers.....ok gotta go now have dragon boating tomm and i gotta pack some stuff.....nitez

hi i got my results backs monday and tuesday and i dont think i did that badly considering the grades that i got this year, i wouldnt settle for these kind of results normally but now as long as i pass and get promoted to sec 4 i will be glad so i can work harder, anyway ill tell u my results PUBLICALLY
Eng- 65.6(second highest in level woohoo, damn james beat me by 4 marks)
E-maths-42(can't believe i failed e-maths but first time failed so overll stillpass)
A-maths-33(ya lah, i noe..)
Combined Science-42(its soobvious iwont pass overallalso causefailed entire yr)
Tamil-57(YEAH!!!!!!!!!!IPASSED SEEE MEEE I PASSED! YEAH!)
Combined Humanites-60(secind in 3E2 for history but SS pulled me down)
Biology-60(yeah i passed this too so happy overall yr also passed great!)
So overall not that bad lah,I was so shocked that i passed tamil and Tamil teacher started praising me on how much i improved, i was so happy she said gd effort, so theres more from me u aint seen yet.
Ok i'm gonna say something now and this doesnt mean i hate my classmates but i hate some of their attitudes and i'm not afraid to say it .
Class Unity, u think 3E2 has it? we're the 2006 version of the united class apparently. really? i don't think so...."Oh we are so united! we are so close, exacept the Indian girls but we are so close as a class!" Honey thats not unity. thats just a pathetic way of trying to make something out of nothing. there is not true unity in our class, especially if u want to leave out an entire chunk of our class and pretend that it is not noticeable. So yea they do speak in their Mother Tongue, so that means u guys speak in Queen's English all the time? huh? and yeah they might not exactly engage with the rest of the class but tell me has anyone pointed that out to them? has anyone tried to talk to them and change that? i am not saying that i have been doing that but i havent ignored them also, i speak to them nicely. OH and that term that u guys give them 'TT', is that very funny? i bettcha the public won't find it very funny. the girls are good enough to keep their mouths shut about this. Its not like they are trying to jepordize u or anything, they have their own aspirations and goals and maybe they are a little more engaged in them than any of us are but are u going to pinpoint them for that? if u hate the way they do things then SPEAK UP AND BLADDY DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. is it soooo difficult? oh and does unity include fighting with ur fellow classmates? does it involve saying u hate them and that they suck? does it involve blaming them for stuff completely without taking some responsiblity for it also?Please thats not unity. Unity is when u can accept people for who they are,their dreams , their habits and their minds, maybe not their attitudes. Its about being there for each other wen we need each other not fighthing at everything. its about helping each other and always standing together as one. Is that 3E2? On the outter surface yes, but really is that how we truly are? we can say we dislike each other and that u don't care abt him or her but the class is still united, thats not unity people. U want to tell me this is not true, by all means do so, but u will be lying to yourself and to everyone else. I'm entitled to my own opinion and please save me the trouble of me having to listen to u bitch abt how wrong i am. at least im not living in denial. I saying this cause i've had enough of the way u treat ur own classmates, the way u treat my classmates, if u are so willing to make our class 'united' then u will put some thinking into this, cause if u discard this then u do not care about ur classmates wellbeing....
PS: i'm not attacking anyone but this has gone far enough and i have a voice too. And sometimes i can really say things that can be cruel and i try to keep those comments in but don't play with fire if not u will get burnt.

Hi My cuz turned 3 today. the party was kinda miserable though, well it was just a tiny gathering. She was all dolled up in her new pink dress and her hair tied up in pig tails....so sweet. oh i watched video of her performing at her school concert, HOW CUTE! she was the ONLY one who was really singing and dancing and showing her actions soo ernestly. My Darling is so entusiastic. i loved the part when the song started playing and she started bobbing her head up and down, awww. anyway little mr Ronan was there too and he was making so much of noise, so much out of a 10-mnth old. After that came home and have been lazing around since. i got nothing else to do.
You know what the STUPID haze is back. yesterday the PSI was 120. My gosh what the hell are the Sumatran Farmers doing? i don't mean to demean anyone but seriously are they that clueless? can't they see that not just affecting their country but the entire region just because they decide to set a flame to a forest? i mean even their own ppl are irritated with this but do the farmers care? NO. its like all they care abt is their own well being and So the we all have to go through this every single year. its sickening! i mean will they only stop if there no more forest left to burn? oh until global warming drowns our countries S'pore first? is that it cause thats pretty much gonna be the eventual consequence. Sure ASEAN can do everything in its power to eredicate this problem but if the farmers are not going to cooporate how much can be achieved? this is really not something i want to live with for the rest of my life!
I'm guess i'm kinda having breathing problems, well maybe only, i know i have to keep taking in big breadths cause the normal breadths i take seem not enough so ihave to force a yawn to breath, well maybe its just the cold.....which probably is caused by the haze or maybe too much cold drinks. haha whatever it is i'm really being kinda affected. i think it will go away soon so nvm people no need to fret over it......k nothin much to say so signing off....cheerio
SEE YA GUYS AT SCHOOL TOMM! RESULTS AHHH!

Friends Forever Thats What They SayFriends forever thats what they sayFor eternity we'll always playTill the time comes to say goodbyeWhen all is forgiven and its time to flyI'll always remember you they sayTill the day comes when they'll have to replay"who are you where we friends"Can you accept what you will payFriends Forever Thats What They SayHey! here is an old poem i dug up from my archives. i wrote it in sec 2 and posted it on my blog just as the school year was ending and when pur classes were going to be split up, inspired. Ok i noe it talks about how friends might forget each other. but that was me caught in a moment. i would never ever forget my friends.
Anyway i saw a bat yesterday! ya a real one. i was walking to the lift to go for my violin class, i saw this little thing on the floor and i thought it was a bird or something, so wen i got nearer the thing started flying. then its wings got longer and i realised it was a BAT! ahhh! i was like shocked. then it was flying all over the place. and as u noe bats are blind so it was all over the place. i didnt want to stand there so once the lift came up i just ran in. haha!Could it be a vampire?ooh!
anyway i passed my english! yeah! need to pass just 2 other subjects to get promoted to sec 4. i'm banking on my e-maths and combined humanities. i'm really gonna work hard next yr so that i can do well for my o-levels. i heard that some of my classmates are in danger. i hope that they will also get promoted i dont want anyone to be missing from my class next year. wow i can't believe i'm im gonna be in sec 4....i feel as if it was just yesterday that i entered sec 1, and it was my first day of secondary school and i am entering mdm tong's class and michelle sitting next to me on the first day of school. she was my first partner. and my first new friends were Shin Yee and Devi. And how i finally found and interest in maths all thanks to mdm tong. I mean even my mom started to think that i couldn't do maths. but she helped me. aww i'm gonna miss bendemeer when i'm going to have to leave it next yr =( well we must all move on right?
Anyway tomm is my darling Anushka's 3rd Birthday! i went to the toys r us at orchard to look for something for her. i actually saw a Really Big Elmo there(BTW SHE ADORES ELMO! SHARINA U NOE WAT IM TALKING ABT) but it was $40 and mymom said shes got enough plush toys so in the end we settled for a doctor set that costs $20. ithink she will like it. Oh and of course we had to get something for Baby Ronan. i mean hes hardly even 1 yet but my mom says he will feel it and will wonder how come his sister is getting all the toys and hes getting none, so we went and looked for something for him at, where else, the Baby Section. got him some soft balls for him to play with. then paid for the toys and wrapped up her gift. I miss toys r us! haha
Ok i dont think im going to go anywhere today also cause miss JULINE TENG HUI FANG wants to watch some show at 3.45 so she doesnt want to go. Lazy bum. so its just our oreo cheescake date next thursday with sharina.
Ok gonna go now i dont think theres anything left for me to write and i think the post is long enough so Cheerio!
PS: i feel as if i'm losing a friend, shes slipping away from me and she doesn't even know it. Or maybe she just doesn't realise it, i don't want to lose her......

hi exams are FINALLY over.....and today was our listening comprehension so i got home like soooo early. 9.00am. yah all the working ppl were staring at me in the train, haha poor people. papers were ok lah let me tell u wat i thought of the papers.....
English
yah i didnt find english that easy and english is my strongest subject, i definately will not take to failing my english at ALL. My mom will probably kill me too. anyway my summary wasn't that gd mr tan said there were 21 points but i only got like 15 points?my essay was on beauty not bad i think my essay was creative.
Mother Tongue
yah ok this is my weakest subject, and the paper was not that easy to me. i got a bit lost at the comprehension. yah i pray that i pass, hopefully my paper 1 will pull me up i think i did pretty well there had alot of points.
E-maths paper 1 and 2
paper 1 was ok in a way though some questions i just did not know how to do and one question i knew the answer but i did not know the working, yah i know weird right? paper 2 was a bit of a rush for me cause i got stuck at question 2 for a while and spent my time doing it. not a good move but i managed to finish the paper just as Mr Siva said pens down. so good lah.
Social Studies and History
Social studies was ok, i did he essay question on Northen Ireland. the cartoon was pretty easy in my opinion. well i got what the cartoonist was trying to say. the rest was ok as well a little challenging but ok. History was fine too. i did the essay on Mao's Rule. I studied that very well so i think i can pass. the cartoon for history in my idea was kinda challenging though people said it was easy. the source based questions weren't that easy.
Chemistry and Physics
Chemistry? haiyah it didnt go so good, i remember trying my best to do everything but did not go so well. oh well have to work harder next year.
Physics was better than chemistry definately. i think there is hope of passing so i'm keeping my fingers crossed.
A-maths
Ok this did not go well. the first question already die. i got a fraction for the answer when i was supposed to get a whole number. Juline got the same thing too. the whole paper went quite badly for me, though it was WAY better than the Mid-yr a-maths paper that was utterly horrible.Fabian said he also die. i finished it though. Passing? hmmmm.......
Biology
i have to say i have never liked a bio paper so much before. Section C was just absolutely GREAT! though section A and B was a litlle challenging i managed to do it. it was good. i think there is a chance of passing as well. so i will keep my fingers and toes crossed.
Mr Tan said that we need to Pass English and Two other subjects to get promoted to Sec 4 express. and if we fail english we need to pass five subjects. so i pary that i pass my english, humanities and biology and e-maths.
Anyway going out later for lunch at Pizza Hut. Kelly and me have always planned to go there but we never seem to make it there. so we will be going today. anyway those who wanna come along tell me ok? im gonna go now. oh im gonna take off the song that is playing on my blog i think its getting kinda annoying.
Bye!
