Yet another week is gonna end soon...The quizzes and homework have been piling up recently D: Had a molgen quiz today... Then a chem quiz is coming up next Monday, physio quiz on Wednesday and Math GT on Friday OTL
Our mentor is very, very weird. We have to write a letter to him aka "Dear Mr Lim" letter stating stuff like our character/personality, academics and CCA stuff... No idea how to start without sounding awkward lolol.
I have survived 3 PE lessons! Mega achievement man, considering how tiring it is >.> I can tolerate it now, but i doubt i can when i'm on my period... =.= My whole body is aching again...
Found out that Matthew's on the Nanao exchange program too. Screw that man. Screw you, screwing up my long-awaited trip to Japan. Why do i have to spend it with a person like you, huh? So annoying.
Been taking photos all over school, but mostly scenery and stuff. I would want to take more portraits but haha, kind of awkward. People have been asking me why am i bringing a camera too.
A photo to end the post :D

This week has been busier than usual. I think. I managed to survive the second session of PE, thank god. But my body's still aching >.> It's like, before this i will only get muscle aches when it's napfa, but now i get them regularly after PE >:( But then again, napfa is supposedly in March, so the suffering will over soon (i hope). But looking at how my PE teacher's so hardcore, i doubt it'll be very different from what we're doing now... I really really hope it's just gonna be light running and then games after March D: I can stand doing random exercises, but not running x.x Oh yeah. I survived. 7. Freaking. Rounds. On the track. The most i've ever ran in my life so far. (though it was not continuously...)Elder sister's wedding!
Woke up at like 6am, but ended up slacking around till about 12pm when we left the house for the hotel... x.x But gatecrash was fun to watch LOL. Then there was that traditional chinese tea serving thingy.
When i wore my wedges, i was all "omg the people around me are so short"... Are there that many people shorter than 160cm O.o? Lunch was quite nice. The wedding cake was fake though, lol.
Lots of photo taking! A lot, a lot of group shots... And i got to play with a Nikon D7000 too~ Now that i'm using the Panasonic DMC-GF3, the D7000 is a lot better in comparison LOL. Let's see, i took shots of the transparent teacup, the prawns and the chilli hahahaha.
Gonna be experimenting a bit with the GF3...
I need to find a RAW converter though, or just get PS Lightroom...

#377: To hell with you, PE.
PE is just making me depressed. And choir too.Today's PE was just so hardcore that it made me cry, seriously. I completely couldn't take it at all. Most classes did like 3-7 rounds + other stuff. Like seriously? I may actually consider doing sit ups as something i don't mind doing, but running is just out of the question. Yes my stamina is that bad. I wonder if it's because of eczema. OH and there's cross country this year. On the 13th of March. Screw that. There wasn't even supposed to be cross country this year. But still, i completed last year's cross country just fine, so why are they training us so freaking hard for? I know there's also NAPFA, but still. I really really HATE PE, but it's not that i will not do it if it's a mandatory thing. It's just that the training regime is just, TOO FREAKING intense.
Choir. Someone from choir has to go up every morning assembly to sing the national anthem. And because i'm not a scholar or non-Singaporean, i have to go up to do it. It's making me really stressed out.
I think all the factors coming together are making me really depressed. Me finishing all the math revision worksheets but not getting any recognition, getting a D7 for Higher Chinese O Level, the fucking PE training. Well, it's not like i really care about not getting a high score for HCL O Levels, but it still affects me. It's kind of ridiculous though, i got an A2 for Normal Chinese, but i drop to a D7 for Higher Chinese? That just doesn't make sense. I wonder if you can just submit the Normal Chinese O Level certificate instead of the Higher Chinese one though o.o
I think it's been the third time since i really shed tears in school. Yes, school's making me this way. I can't remember the first time, but the second time was during an orientation at the start of the year, when i felt really out of place during mass dance. Yeah.

#376: Yet Another New Year
Orientation's finally over. I think the atmosphere for the finale wasn't quite right lol... especially for the mass dance. It was so nice last time when it was all dark, with lightsticks and all... Anyway.School's starting for real now T_T Just finished the math revision worksheet they dumped on us on the first day of orientation -_- I'm considering whether or not to take the chem revision enrichment module, but it's like 2 hours per week... plus it's on TUESDAY. My emptiest day D:
Oh and i got into the Nanao High School exchange program~~ :DD Gonna need to start saving up money for the trip in November! Can't wait~~ The inbound trip will probably be earlier i guess? If not i'll be during my year 6 o.o Aah i really hope i can go to one of the BookOff shops. And i guess i'd need to look up on some places of interest in Singapore? lol. Oh, and definitely must remember to bring a good camera.
...i really hope i don't get my period during the outbound trip though OTL that'll be so inconvenient...
Sister's wedding soon... gotta go shopping soon to get some shoes and maybe accessories o.o I want wedges! Low ones of course LOL. Oh yeah i just remembered i've got a white headband, but it's the thin kind. My outfit is full white... Maybe i should get a thicker white headband...
Time to make some roses! I only brought pink paper with me to hostel though.

Work. Finally ended. I was kind of impatient for it to end on the last few days... Felt so tired and unwilling to even move... Anyway, it's all over! Well maybe not completely over.
Before moving in, we went to Jurong Point to buy new clothes for my older sister's wedding in less than 3 weeks time. We went to quite a few shops, but they were all selling bold coloured "vintage-style" dresses... But we found something cute in the really frilly and cutesy shop, Nana La Reve. Got a top and really puffy shorts which look a skirt. I really like the clothes though. I thought i would look fat in the shorts, but i didn't! O: Was a real surprise man. It's really pretty, but it's full white haha. Anyway, can wear the shorts with other tops after the wedding \o/
After shopping, we went to pick up Jingwei and headed to the hostel. I felt like i was bringing so much crap OTL It felt like i was bringing a lot more stuff than other people LOL. I even brought a cabinet to put inside the wardrobe hahaha. To organise my clothes inside >.>
Hostel dinner was okay. But i think i'm gonna end up not eating vegetables most of the time OTL My mum's telling me to drink the soup if i won't eat the vegetables, but i really don't like soup =/ I can drink a little bit, but i can't drink an entire bowl! Maybe next time i should try gulping it down as if it's a drink o.o Hostel dinner is a lot more than my normal dinner, honestly. There's extra soup, fruit and a drink. Most of the time i only have like 1 meat, 1 vegetable and a drink afterwards.
The hostel shower actually wasn't THAT bad. It's kind of the same size as my house's bathroom cubicle where i bathe. The only bad thing is that it doesn't have any dry area to put your clothes and stuff =/ And it sucks when you're on your period. Seriously.
The Starhub mobile internet works fine, but it takes a few seconds to load a page T_T I'm so gonna miss my home internet... Can't catch up on anime anymore... Can't do a whole lot of things :(
Hmm. I don't feel the urge to scratch when i put on moisturiser after bathing. Let's see how this goes.
