Hello world! (:
Just arrived back to Singapore last Thursday, having the days spent there to be so treasured. (: KL trip was rather enriching, seeing Malaysia develop so much but yet still not on par with the standards of living in Singapore. Life here is too fast-paced, leaving us to view the world as relaxing, as long as it is away the hubbub in town.
Band practice was on as usual, but the sight of the attendance was rather demoralizing. The largest section of the band had only the turn up of one member. How encouraging...sigh. Hopefully things will take a brighter turn soon.
Met Amanda & Yuanhui at amk and we head down to the zoo with mos burger brunch in hand. Bus-ed down and we hurriedly bought our entrance tickets, making our way through the cages of animals. Amanda was our navigator, holding the map like her treasure, she led us through the paths and we saw rather lots of animals. Butbut, pity that the giraffes and the cobras were not in the zoo ytd. The Australia Outback was rather exciting when we saw the map, but was a little let down when the kangaroos inside were just lazing around like pigs. Oh btw, the pigs are goneee. ): The zoo no longer keeps them. Yuanyuan was telling us that Sheba the polar bear is going to be shifted back to its hometown soon due to weird signs that it is showing. But we didn't managed to catch any glimpse of the polar bears coz we were too lateee...): Had a stop by at KFC after walking to the kids corner and ended up missing the other half of the zoo. Haha. We then headed down to Ben's&Jerry's to have a scope of ice-cream. Kinda had some butterflies in my stomach after which a vomitting session took place. Hahaha!
Oh yah! We went to watch the Splash amphitheatre where we watched the sea-lion and penguins performed. The sea-lion, Carlos was really amazing lah! Haha well-trained and kinda cheeky too. After the performance was photo-taking sessions with Carlos, andand during photo taking, Carlos will actually KISS the person's cheek! NGYUANYUAN GOT KISSED BY A SEALION! Hahahahaha! XP
(PS: it totally stinked!)
Currently having lots of new items in hand - sunglasses, gundam, laptop, sound dock and clothes! I think there are more to come though! Yippeeeeee! =D
you made my life so much brighter. (: although today was spent on lying sick on the bed, ur mere presence was enough to chase away the fever n butterflies. thank you. =:D

Browsed through photo albums on lappy and reminisce the lower secondary school days. Right above is sec one at the old MF campus in which is now Peirce Sec. But I think they shifted out too since it was a temporary campus for them a few years back. Above is taken after band performance at the NLB when I was sec two. Things have changed since and those days will just remain in our memories. (:
Yesterday was a dinner celebration my parents held in lieu for the promotion to year two next year. Japanese ala-carte buffet was superb, with dishes lined up specially for friends of the restaurant, which are mostly out of the menu. But that will be the price to pay for moving up to year two, meaning an intensive year without any slacks. Though currently its all fun in my mind, it still holds capacity to be prepared for December to be a month of intense revision. Life's hard...
One more day left and I'll be off to M'sia, visiting their historical and geographical sites, along with other YJians. This trip would be rather different from the rest of that I've been on, but nonetheless, company will be found. (: Currently half of SG25 is on their way to South Africa, going onboard a journey that is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Also, Amanda is too away in Hong Kong and we hold high hopes for her to bring back goodies for Flower 6! Hahaha! xD
the trip will be enjoyable, no worries (:

Sweetsweet days. Gonna get diabetics soon. Choy! LOL. (:
OP IS DONE! PW IS CLEARED! PROMOTION RESULTS ARE OUT! =DDD
Everything is over and now, time-tables are simply time consuming. Nearly having 2-hours straight of break and 1-hour breaks in between everyday, tempting us to have a break, head home and chill. And today's 2-hours break was well spent crashing into chemistry lecture. (: Chem can be rather fun to learn about but not for examinations purposes, just like all other subjects. Haha. Contradicting huh?.
Econs lecture will no longer be the same without Ms Aminah for our SG anymore... Although no more queuing up for the front rows and those mad booking of seats, her lectures are still missed due to the fast-pace that she brings us on. Mr Chong can be rather self-entertaing actually. (:
Overseas trip to M'sia can be rather forthcoming, in the aspect of having some time off reality. Although its just a short escape, it works better than none. (: Stuffs are still not packed into a bag, partly due to the fact that the bag has not yet been chosen.
Serious mood swings have been taking place, and it seems to be driving some people nuts. Hopefully its simply PMS but some things just happen without a reason. Just want to sleep on and never wake up... (:
Reaching out, holding u so close and tight... =:D

Hectic week of project work, sending them for printing just in time for the final deadline. And in five days' time, we will be standing in front of the assessors along with our class, having our oral presentation assessed. All the best ppl! (:
Lately been considering purchasing a macbook due to this virus infected laptop that has given me problems too much to ask for. Despite it coming back from hospital, it has still failed to fulfil the basic requirement of the battery to be used. This battery would not last for more than a minute and I'm serious about it. Its going to cost a bomb of more than six hundred to replace it, in which it won't be sensible as getting a brand new laptop would do just fine. Ah well, wait and see then.
Lectures and tutorials had been a chore to do earlier this week, and its going to be worst next week. What's most forward-looking for us YJ-ians would be the following week, where the verdict will be out - retain or promote. Just gonna pray...pray real hard for the latter... (:
Missed an outing with the girls down to Mustafa. Awww... but will be making it up for them though. Anything u girls want? (: That reminds me. I have no idea why my tagboard cant be viewed with IE but only with MF. A little game had brightened my weekend, and totally looking forward to games during the weekends now! =D
Had been thinking a little over the week, but not exactly coming to any conclusion. Maybe I've been having too much of my own points of view that I turn them into the viewpoints of others' too.
