After 2 days of work at Popular, my feet are aching like crazy, cos I practically stood all the time from 11am to 10pm. But I guess it's quite fun there, helping to pack all the CDs, stocktaking, cutting cardboard, attending to weird customers... and on a side-note, I get to listen to my favourite CDs that are blaring through the loudspeakers everyday! Initially, I wanted to buy the Britney Spears latest CD- Circus, but now I get to hear the entire album 4-5 times a day till I'm actually getting sick of it. Hope my boss can allow me to change the CD to Take That latest album, which coincidentally is called "The Circus" too (: Made some friends there at my workplace... ... all the part-timers are all younger than me.

No one believes that I'm 18, cause of my humongous FAT face which makes me look like a BIG CHUBBY PERSON. All of them thought I'm 16 or even younger. And apparently my age has become somewhat of a joke, cause when people always say- "Eh this is Carol, and GUESS HOW OLD SHE IS ?"

I'm quite disappointed that I can't send Karina off that day on Wednesday. But when I told the manager to let me start work on Thursday, she said that my boss is on leave on Thursday, and I have to learn some stuff beforehand so that I can cope on Thursday. So I guess that's life. Sorry.

SIAN. NAPFA got silver this year. Because of standing board jump i got a D. Haha....but I'm still quite glad that I didn't fail...cause I thought I will fail my standing board jump this year :( haha....:) I jumped 172 last year (just reached gold)....but the funny thing is that I failed my napfa in sec 3 and sec 4 cos of standing board jump... oh well....shan't complain anymore...just be contented with what I have now. :) I PASSED!

Sorry if you super fit people are rolling your eyes at me right now. It's an achievement ok considering I ran 17++ minutes in sec 3 and 4 and FAILED my NAPFA that iritating two years!

Anyway, after since SBJ was the last station and after I tried unsuccesfully to get my 174cm, I suddenly got a stomach upset and felt like vomiting. Randomness suddenly vomit just rushed to my throat. Rushed to the toliet and vomited quite a bit, then went upstairs looking for Zhi Lin and Hui Ru as if I had run 2.4km. Balme it on my throat and irritating flu :( Yah anyway, doc says I got throat infection sian...which is much worse than sore throat, and it will take long time to recover since I have no phlegm in my throat...just that my throat has infection....:( So people, sorry if you have to bear with my sucky gay voice for the next few weeks.

Yup but Since I'm not fit physically, I shall aim to make my brain fit in time for prelims and a levels.

Feeling really overwhelmed now cause time is a scarce resource and I'm still wasting my time blogging. Realised that I can't catch up on my Econs and Maths now cause I have focused too much on Phy and Chem. SIAN.

Sorry for all the complains.

Shopping!!!

YEAH! Shopping with Alicia, Angeline and Siew Min was productive yesterday! :) Bought a pair of shoes and a watch. Thanks Siew Min for helping me to find that perfect watch...really love it cause it looks so clean! Lol...anyway, my dad couldn't believe that I bought the watch for $5 at Bugis Streets cause it looks much more expensive than that...:)

Just came back collecting toys from Zhi Lin...now Sandy has more toys...1 barbie doll radio house, 1 box of beads and 1 mini "computer" which Zhi Lin says can be used to learn Maths! THANKS Zhi Lin! Though I apologise for Sandy anti-social behaviour...cause I don't know why she's so afraid of Zhi Lin haha:) Realise Sandy now has lot's of toys from my friends... 5 barbie dolls from Hui Ru and 1 barbie doll from Siew Min... ... And Vincent owns Sandy a present cause that time he laughed at me for taking Hui Ru's barbie dolls. :((

Anyway, today is reading story books day! Went Bugis library with SM yesterday to borrow loads of books...first time I was there...and I was rather noob cause I couldn't believe there were so many books!

Excited today cause there's Lord of The Rings today! My favourite movie of all time (along with Titanic) !!! :)

Just saw the timetable for extra lessons on Student's Portal. Really horrible cause we end lesson like almost everyday at 5.30pm.
Which means I can't get home in time to watch my show at 5.30pm :/

ARG.

screw jcts

JCTs finally over... don't know what to feel.

Basically, bad time management and the lack of mugging just sums up the whole experience. I didn't even complete any of the paper. For Econs and GP, I had so much more to write and evaluate, but I had simply no time. And Physics was a killer this time!?! And it was supposed to be my best paper cause after Physics paper, I'm supposed to feel better. Oh well. I think I will probably get 2 marks out of 24 for my MCQ. I didn't do lots of questions. when mrs poon said "H1 students please pass up your MCQ..." I only did 10 questions, which means I have another 15 minutes to do 14 questions. SIAN.

I really hate myself for all the procrastinating. Everyone thinks I mugged like hell for jcts...like real. Four weeks of "holidays" passed by fast. First week used up for H3 exams, second week used up for TOTAL SLACKING (cos I thought there are two more weeks left to mug). Third week tried to study but couldn't get my momentum going. Studied for 30 minutes then went to disturb Sandy and watch TV or read storybooks. Four week started to panic but realised it's too late. This sums up my holidays. It's pathetic.

Anyway, after the JCTs, the girls went out to watch a movie and ate dinner. "The Happening" was a stupid movie. People dying one after another. When the show was into it's one-and-a-half hour, and the two leads were out in the trees and hugging, Siew Min said "Maybe the trees find them very loving, and will be so touched that they do not kill them. And then everything will end." I think she was just making a joke but siew min was RIGHT.

WOAH LAO. Wasted my $6; luckily watched it at Princess, so not so bad. Haha...and we had the WHOLE cinema to ourselves (apparently there were a few basketballers at the back but we treat them as if they are invisible). Sorry to the girls if I made a lot of noises. I think I was screaming and cringing and whining at those morbid scenes.

Dinner at Eatzi was nice. We talked for so long.... Reached home at 9.30pm and watched att my shows! America's Next Top Model and all those repeated Chinese dramas. I love watching BIMBO Shows and reality shows! :)))) Zhi Lin and Hui Ru will tell you that I watch mostly REPEATED Chinese Dramas.lol.

Sorry for all the ranting. Blogs are just nothing but idle chatter and self indulgence. :)

I miss the good old days!

Really fed up. Holidays ending soon but I can't seem to find the momentum to study. Every morning, I will wake up and tell myself "I will start studying today...". Sure, start mugging for a while and then I will get restless and start to disturb Sandy and watch TV. Really have a short attention span...and I CAN'T HELP IT!!! ):

Anyway, it was a great day last Sunday cause I had a 4e3 chalet cum bbq! I really miss those good old days...

(: I miss having my own classroom.
(: I miss having my own table.
(: I miss running to my friends' table to talk (especially Vanessa's table) after a lesson ended and before the next teacher came.
(: I miss chionging down for recess with Elisse and choinging back up the staircase after gobbling down our food. (and see who can run the fastest up the staircase)
(: I miss going home with Vanessa on Bus 10.
(: I miss all the fun competitions that TKGS have, like Zany Parade!!!
(: I miss my lab partners Aiman, Chua Jiayi and Yezi! Remember the stupid bacteriophage model we did for Bio and how we would splash water on each other chem practical paper during washing up?
(: And there's so much more... ...

In a way, JC life here at TJ is much better, but life in secondary school is so much more innocent and not that complicated... ... a few more months to go and we will be out of TJ... ... will 07 meet up? :)

Vanessa: I promise we will meet up again :) Really miss talking to you! And true friends are hard to find.. ...

I'm Sandy's mum??? :((

Brought Sandy to the polyclinic today for an eye checkup. Visited about 3 doctors and a few nurses because I was being referred to there and fro...so Sandy and I kept running all over the place. What was worse was that everyone thought I was Sandy's mum...and all of them keep giving me this weird expression...(that "you are so young but had sex and got pregnant" type of expression). Finally, one doctor couldn't stand it anymore and ask me "are you her sister or her mother?".

I gave him that duh-i'm-the-sis-face and he still had the cheek to exclaim "WOW. Thank goodness! I thought you are her mother at first, then I keep thinking why you so young already have children...and had pre-marital sex as well...young people nowadays...."

I was so goddamm embarassed. -.- Especially since he mentioned it in front of Sandy who found it so amusing that people thought I'm her mum.

btw, Sandy failed her eye test. And now she has to go to KKH to see eye specialist. It will be super horrible if she wears specs...because that means we will be banned from the TV too. :(

back from camp!

Just came back from TC camp... ... it was FUN! Especially on the first day when we went to East Coast Park. Got drenched by dunno-how-many-buckets-of-water while I was preparing to take photos with Sm, Angeline and Sharon. Got my revenge in the end. :) All my clothes were drenched and it was really disguting and uncomfortable! But I had a great great dinner at East Coast! Ate $ 4 worth of Hokkien Mee and $2 worth of satay but still felt hungry... ... I'm such a gluton oh my god... ...

Had night walk at 2.30am in tjc. Felt really scared intially beacause it was near 3am... and i had no partner initially because Gwenda thought i wasn't coming on the first day(misunderstanding). But luckily I ended up with Roy, Siew Min and Angeline...After the night walk, we sat down at the sports complex there and I sort of look at the night sky. It was really beautiful and romantic with lot's of stars. Suddenly had an impulse to just lie down there in the open and look at the sky... ... The last time I did that was during OBS 3 years ago... ...

All the best to the new commitee...do and good best for the upcoming year and do us proud!

I'm so dreamy...I think so much about the future although I know that's not going to happen...
