I didn't know how much I missed Fiona until I talked to her today...
I guess lots of people have changed since I left.
Whether good or bad, I have yet to find out.
See you people on Tuesday! (I hope the headmaster won't kick me out for going to sch so often)
PS: Good luck for the Merdeka performance! Will be watching from the comforts (and the shade) of my living room! XD
PPS: I just lost to like five people in scrabble today. (Facebook) My English officially sucks.

Today. Was. Hell.
I was practically dying of embarrassment after I came out from the school hall today. All my words were mumbly and jumbled and I’m pretty sure Mrs. Yap is out for my blood at my crappy pronounciation, lousy poise, stupid mix up in sequence of events and stoned expression.
I’m just counting the minutes left on my death clock. Provided I have one. It might have self-destructed as an attempt to disassociate itself from my sorry self. One thing good is that I’m finally going back to KL today. Only thing, I’m going back to study. So yeah, crappy holiday, eh?
AND EXAMS WERE PUSHED FORWARD BY FOUR DAYS!

Weird day indeed.
Mr. Lim actually said the name “Chen Yang” today, which was weird beyond all imagination as there are no Chen Yangs in our class. Zhen Ling enlightened me, telling me that Mr. Lim had merely created a creative equivalent of a combination of him and Jia Yang. I wanted to laugh hysterically so badly. No one but April could get the joke though.
PTM today...
My parents met Miss Siva, Miss Lee (co-form teacher), Mr. Chan, Madam Yurni, Mrs. Teoh, Mr. Lim, Miss Yeo AND Madam Liew. So, as anyone could probably guess, it was quite an eventful day; as all the teachers seemed to have something to say to them. I even had to stop my parents from actually going up to Mr. Zainal to greet him.
One thing about today is that I really found out many things about myself (or so they say), that I never knew existed. I’m supposedly pessimistic, paranoid, down on myself and have a serious lack of confidence. Or at least, that’s what Miss Siva kindly said about me.
There were a few moments which I felt like squirming in my seat, when she talked about my writing to my parents ; and there were quite a lot of ‘emo’ stuff that I wrote about family, of which I do NOT tell my parents. Unfortunately for me, she brought it up. Fortunately for me, my parents know I don’t like them to read whatever I write. Habit, I guess. She did say one absolutely fantabulous thing, though; that I should publish my work, or at least keep a portfolio of all the things I wrote.
It also seemed that a lot of people don’t know that Malaysians spend most of their free time, if not all on tuition. At least, Malaysians from public schools. And most tuition costs around RM30-RM60 per month. Ridiculously cheap compared to S’pore standards, I know.
Mr. Chan and my father spent quite a bit of time reminiscing on M’sian secondary school education / property values in some parts of Bangsar / commenting on the state of the Malaysia education system.
Madam Yurni impressed my parents with her ‘chim’ English and proceeded to expound on my many faults in literature. Mrs. Teoh shocked me by remembering my name, Mr. Lim said that I’m confident (since when????) and Miss Yeo complained of the sorry state of my handwriting. (of which my mother readily agrees with)
And MADAM LIEW asked for my examination slip! She actually commented that I was quite good in Maths and Science, which I AM NOT and that I need to work harder on my language skills. (the language she was referring to was English) I was so scared I had to physically restrain myself from running away screaming. AND she said she HEARD THINGS ABOUT ME FROM MY TEACHERS. I was totally, “Kill. Me. Now.” I didn’t know Madam Liew even knew I existed, what more hear stuff about me and recognise that I am the sufferee of the stuff said.
By the way, I have found physical proof that the gun you use DOES affect your shooting. I came slightly later today and found out that some other girl, a sec 2, I think; took my gun out for shooting. So I was left with the incredibly big and annoying shaky one. I tried so hard today to shoot the target and I got almost half of my shots off the black circle.
I got so fed up that I stopped, asked the girl to lend me her/my gun and made a shot. I instantly got a 9/10. It could have been dumb luck but I did the same thing with the gun I originally used for the rest of the day and I got a 6/10! It could just be my lousiness at shooting, but I doubt it’s just that.

First thing I did when I saw my blog was. Laugh like shit at the the tag box.
Today, I noticed that Hana Yori Dango the movie was coming to Singapore. I watched the entire drama, (actual plus sequel) and now I have no idea why. But there was one line that was sappily sweet though. (Thinking of watching it with Khye Chwin... Hmm)
Anyway, today's PE was tiring. I ran like an idiot all around the court. And we lost 5-0 to 304. I shall content myself with the fact that we lost because it was an 8-6 player thing. We did tie two games though, and both were from the other two groups from 302. =) The most depressing thing was that I actually scored my own goal. Okay, I didn't actually aim and throw into my own goal or anything; but it was like this. Hui Ting gets the ball and aims. She throws too high and I manage to whack it out the way. The only thing is that I actually didn't manage to hit it as hard as I thought I would and it bounced of my hand and innocently into the goal post with Meng Yue screaming semi-hysterically. Yup. Fantastic indeed.
Oh yeah, and Miss Yeo is actually now in my "cool" teacher list. I can't believe she actually sat in the corner to figure out how to proof the AMath sums, and SUCCEEDED much later -passing the proof to me. (However, I didn't read it, a poor testament to my "scholar" status) The proof then flailed alternatively between me, Daniel, Priscilla and Chelsea before it actually got pinned up.
The worst part of the entire day was the EL TEST of which I'm SURE I'M GOING TO DO HORRIBLY IN. Before I get people freaking out at me for being paranoid *cough*Huiting*cough*, I need to obtain at least an A2 before I can skip English Remedial. (A lousy English class for scholars in which scholars learn the proper pronounciation to certain words e.g. photographer)
Erm so. Yeah.
And Mother Tongue was horrible. I can't wait to drop it during JC. (the only good thing abt it is that I meet lots of ppl from other schools who hate it almost as much a I do)

Today I got back late.
The rehearsal was supposed to end at 5, but because of the lots of "hiccoughs" (as Miss Lillian Kuck eloquently puts it), well; it pretty much dragged on even after I left. (Which was almost 6) So I reached by to the hostel and after a bath; I was encountered with a very pissed Camille.
Apparently, a picture of us waltzing has been put up in the boarding school notice board. Apparently, she was right in front.
Well, it was more true than apparent; but you get the picture. So the thing is; the picture of me "waltzing" with Chen Yang is up on the notice board. Despite that, I can proudly claim that my picture being up there is not as bad as April's picture with Ze Yong with barely xxmm of space between them. (I'm sure I'm going to get killed after I right this; but what's life without risks?) The funniest part was that Camille and Henry were holding each other so far apart they seemed to be afraid that the other had cooties...!
And so yeah.
I'm pretty much sure that I'm going to terribly embarrass myself for the Teacher's Day Celebration. But hey; there's the one week holiday for me to hide for a reason, after all. =)
Also, got an entire condensed version of ToTA today by Epitome of Laziness, Zhiling. (I am the Queen of Procastination, by the way) Sounds really sweet, sorta like Chrno Crusade. You know - shounen without all the excessive fan-service. Besides, I saw a little of the art, and what I saw really rocked.
On a random note, I shall dub myself Personal Nurse and Tissue Supplier of Chelsea from now on.
And, Hui Ting's blog is temporarily unavailable. A little disappointing, considering I have nothing to ruin my eyes at during study peroid.
I shall now go off and attempt to study for the two tests tomorrow. Or perhaps.. maybe later.

Apparently, 302 is now a nerd class.. XD
Thinking of changing my blogskin too. The only reason why I used this skin was because I didn't really like the absence of the "comment" feature in the previous skins...
Will go hunt up more stuff... =)

Whatever that can go wrong, will go wrong; in the worst possible time, in the worst possible manner.
Murphy's law.
I was about to carp about how great life is recently. But I thought of this line... And yeah; it doesn't hurt to be cautious.
I admit it.
I'm paranoid.
Anyway, this month (and last month) had been incredibly busy. I had tonnes of competitions, tests, homework, projects and other assorted stuff to do that I didn't even have time to call either Shuk or Wei Ann.
BUT! I'm going back this Friday! Until the 5th.
Of course, I'll be studying (or at least I'm supposed to) most of the time. But I'm going to try to bug a few people so we can do a study group; just like the old times. Somewhat.
AND WATCH MOVIES. Of which I have missed. The last movie I watched was... What Happened in Vegas? Man, I'm pathethic.
Oh yeah, today (and yesterday, and the day before) I read all sorts of Naruto fanfiction (courtesy of Zhiling) and I spent the past fifteen minutes fangirling about fanfiction. It might sound ridiculous; but it's completely valid!
Note, I have an EGeo test tomorrow, a Lit test on Tuesday and a English on Wednesday.
I so love my life. Sarcasm heavily implied.
