I survived yet another week of endless, monotonous, lectures and tutorials. I'm glad that it is weekend again.
Next week, it will be our mid-semester test. I'm really stressed over that...

Updates

The problem for my "absence" was apparently solved. I don't know if it is true, but my teacher assured me it was done. Oh well...
Comm Skills test came and went, I think I did ok. I choose 'Internet is a wealth of knowledge. Discuss'. At first, I was shocked. I did so much research on environment and the questions that came out was not what I expected. Actually, I did not do much research in that aspect of the Internet. Much of my essay was original, written by yours truly. I heard something funny, (regarding the essay) on Thursday. It was a private joke so I'm not going to disclose it until the right time comes.
CSA excel test also past. I got 12/15. A bit disappointing as I was so careless and I had the certificate from Microsoft. I had high expectations for it.
Next week is Mid-sem tests. I must revising or I will be in trouble. And, something good is coming up, hopefully. Sec 4 BBQ gathering! Hope they find a day where the majority can make it...I really missed everyone...
Going to end here nowl

Bad things in poly

Here is a summarised version of all the bad things going on in my poly life.
Firstly, I didn't get into bowling. Apparently, they only 'accept the best'. Out of 50+ guys who went, only 6 got in. Only 2 girls out of 24 got in. Over 60 hopefuls, only 8 managed to achieve whatever standards the team wanted. I would say that the team is pretty pathetic. Over the last few days, freshmen voiced out their disappointment in the bowling blog with the bowlers countering their confrontations.
Secondly, I just found yesterday that I was marked as absent for my Comm Skills 1 class on 5th of May! Imagine how I feel when I saw that...What nonsense is that? I'm not that kind of person who will skip class, ever. God, I felt so injustice. There must be a miscommunication. Either the teacher called my name and I didn't hear it and thus didn't put up my hand or he skipped my name...
I had evidence that I was present in his class, if he doubted my words. I did the classwork in class and my friend was just sitting next to me. Besides, I had other lessons that day. So why should I skipped his class and went for the others? Hmmm, curious...
Anyway, I'm really feeling down and depressed these days and I don't know why. Life's just not great. I thought that would change when I went to poly, but, in fact it got worst. At least in secondary school......

Happy Bday to me!

9th May:
My mother bought a cake from Four Leaves. I've been wanting to try the chocolate classico for a long time but too bad, only coco exotic was available at that time. I will put up pictures of the cake later.
It was such a long time since I had a birthday cake. The whole cake was about chocolate, it was sinful, but oh so nice.
10th May:
My birthday!!
Woke up early in the morning to get ready for the bowling trial at Tampines Safra. I was very nervous as I'm not that good in bowling. I wanted to join bowling as a CCA but first, we must go for the trial and do well. Why can't they just let those interested be a member? Why must they only accept the good ones? With some training, I don't see why those people who are not that good will remain bad...
Anyway, there seemed to be a lot of people who wanted to join, especially guys. Some of which are "professionals", with their styles and custom-made balls. I was placed in a group with 3 guys. God, it was stressful to be the only bad one among them. They scored so many strikes while I had so many gutter balls.
Something embarrassing happened to me during the 5 minutes test-run. I can't find any 8kg and 9 kg balls, so I took a 10kg one. Before I can even roll it, the ball dropped.
After 4 rounds of continuous bowling, I can't take it any more. My left hand and 3 fingers ached. That's 80 'balls' altogether.
I got a 70+ in the 1st round, 30+ in the 2nd, 40+ in the 3rd and 40+ in the 4th. I ended up with a final score of 199 and was the 2nd last among the 24 girls.
We left home for Centrepoint towards the evening. We dined at Ichiban Boshi. I really wanted to try out the red wine raspberry sorbet but it is always unavailable. After that, we went shopping.
A big thank you to all my friends who wished me, many happy returns. It really light up my day.

Pictures from gathering @ Swensens














2nd week of school

Classes had been boring. Classmates were alright, in a way. I don't want to elaborate. Let's just say that them and my secondary school friends are different. Of course, they are all individuals and I can't possibly compare. But, they are everything my friends are not. Blah, Blah, Blah. Those who should know, knew it by now. The point is, I missed my friends! I missed my secondary school life! I missed my class and teachers! Those good old days where we still managed to have fun in spite of the looming "O" lvls. I deeply treasured those memories.
Updates on my poly life will end here, for now. When there are happier things to put here, I will update the blog. To put it bluntly, I'm not having a merry time.
Onto lighter topics, I've been continuing reading some more light-hearted and hilarious romance novels. The little black dress books are really worth the time. I highly recommend Meg Cabot's The boy next door. Nonetheless, the other novels are just as fun.
Books I've read so far: Bad Boys down under, The Cinderella Moment, First Love, Catch me if you can, The Bachelorette party, The boy next door, Simon says and the Love academy.
Enough of my crappy stuff.
My Birthday is coming! In 6 days! Yay to 17th!
