1 more and i'm done!

A Levels is not over yet but i'm already acting as if it is. Actually, to be honest, it has been pretty relaxed after the first week. But now that lit is finally over and all that is left is Bio Paper 1, it is as if Christmas has come early. Still, i've not felt so tired in a while, compared to going out, studying for exams seem so much more less tiring. LOL.

Friday's singing session with Jiaxi, Kaiyun and Xinyi was awesome! 5 hours was not sufficient and we left the place rather reluctantly when it was 7. Went for dinner with Shiauhaln, Priscilla, Siying, Zoeleen and Vanessa at Astons after that. And YES, it was super duper tiring. But that night, lit paper felt like it happened ages ago, not just that morning.

Went to Expo with Carwyn yesterday for a flea market. And for the first time here, i actually spent money buying dresses and shirts and of course, my favourite jackets. But of course, i got a good bargain for everything so in the end, i still kept way below my budget for that day. I really liked the jacket that i bought a lot! Carwyn bought a similar one too! Just that hers was black and mine was white=) OH OH!! And i met Dharlynnie!!

Just finished throwing out all my notes this morning. Gotta start packing up soon! I hate packing! Don't really know how to start.

My parents will be here next Sunday=)

One more paper and i am done for A Levels! It's wonderful how time flies, for now. Somehow, i wish that Christmas this year comes crawling, as slowly as possible.

A spontaneous fun day out!

Today is definitely one day i will never forget.

Went out with Shiing and walked all the way from the forum to the grand cathay.

Tried on so many dresses that i lost count of them. The funniest part was finding out the prices of the dresses. LOL. Yea, i actually tried on a dress which was worth S$2k+ and only found out that it was worth S$2k+ after deciding that i did not like it. Seriously, S$2k+?!?! What the hell?!?! Anyway, found a very nice dress which i liked a lot and Shiing said looked real good on me but i didn't buy it even though it was cheaper (at S$200). Still don't think it is worth spending that amount of money on a dress though it is one that i would and could wear even after prom.

Things i would remember from today:

1. Jaw-droppingly expensive dresses.

2. Birds chirping along orchard road. (I never realised them before!!)

3. Free Gongcha and me thinking that the uncle was trying to play a trick on me.

4. Sitting on the steps before the pedestrian traffic light.

5. Feeling as if we were drunk. (on tea. lol.)

And guess what?!?!?! I bought tickets to watch Harry Potter!! =)

By the way, if you are free, try watching the American drama series called "Lie To Me". It's about applied psychology and micro expressions and i think it is interesting. I liked it a lot and kinda got addicted to it.

2 more papers and i am free!!

Warm welcome

Welcome to Singapore Carwyn LCY =) You'll be fine!!! 加油!

And yes, after one drama series and one day out, i should start studying again!

I'm halfway through A Levels!!! More than half actually, after tomorrow it would be two thirds done!!!

I got high from taping up a box just now. Haha. Yea, set up a box to place all my unwanted paper inside for the ease of carrying it to the recycling bin. You have no idea how happy i felt as i emptied my GP and Math files and filled up that box. Yea, yea. I can hear what some people might say: cheap thrill. But YES!! This is all it takes to make me happy now=) I'm a contented person.

Despite being in the midst of As, i can't stop thinking about one little thing that has been bothering me for awhile now. Should i throw away all my notes or should i lug them all back to Malaysia? What's the point of bringing them back right? I doubt i will ever look at them again. But then "what if" pops in. What if i need them again someday? What if i need to refer to something inside sometime in the future? Should i or should i not?!

Lit was weird today but i shall not dwell on it. Time to go start mugging chem. 5 more papers to go! =) I'm looking forward to the end. Oh, and another thing!! I can't wait to watch Harry Potter 7!! And i wonder why, because i was never a huge fan of the movie. Maybe because this is the first installment of the last movie, maybe that's why i'm so hyped up. Despite that, i have a feeling that i will only watch it when i am back in Malaysia. Haha. So much for being hyped up about it!

Despicable me

HOW BLIND CAN I GET???!!!!
Not seeing the words "volume of 300cm3" for paper 1 was bad enough.
Not seeing the word probability as well for paper 2?!
I despise myself for losing marks not because i cannot do the paper but because i was stupidly careless. When will i learn to be more careful?!
KILL ME!!! (I'm freaking scared that because of these stupid careless mistakes, i would lose my A for math.)

The world today

My mom received a call this afternoon saying that i was kidnapped. She said there was a girl in the background crying and shouting, "Mummy, come and save me!!!" Know what she did? She scolded the person and ended the call.

So, what i want to say is that, don't panic if you receive such a call in the future. DON'T PANIC!!! Most probably it is all a scam. This is the second time my mom has received such a call. The first time was someone calling to say that my brother was beaten up. There are many syndicates out there trying to make a quick buck by preying on our emotions (when we are worried we tend not to think clearly and would more likely fall prey to their scheming), so the least we could do to protect ourselves is to keep calm. Do not give out your name when they ask for it. Do not divulge any personal information. JUST KEEP CALM, and figure things out.

I need to learn how to stop making careless mistakes for math=(

Exceeding Expectations.

Misery loves company. The first thing everyone did after Chem paper today was to ask a question along the lines: "The paper was a killer, right?" And when everyone agreed, they would breathe a sigh of relief and hope the bell curve does its job.

JY called me after Chem paper today. And after a hello, he started laughing. LOL. It was pretty funny how words were not needed to express the shock we all received today.

Not only me, not only him, but practically every H2 student taking Chem in Singapore had a not so pleasant surprise. The paper was way way tougher than that of previous years. Even though there was a mutual agreement that the paper was tough, i do not feel better about it. I did not expect myself to feel this way after an A Level paper, tto feel as if i didn't answer all the questions confidently. Honestly, this felt worse than prelims. Sighs. And what's more, this is just the first paper.

Cambridge, i salute you. You really do know how to surprise us. I have no choice but to look forward to tomorrow's surprises. Hopefully it will be a pleasant one!

And the battle begins

I actually had a dream about A Levels! It wasn't a very pleasant one though=( Dreamt about chem and math. I guess, that shows you how i feel about those two subjects. (Haven't studied chem at all and chem is tomorrow! Am gonna finish studying it today!! Not like i have a choice though.) Sighs. It's tomorrow! But yes, it needs to come before it can be over. I will face it chin-up, whether or not i am fully prepared!

On a brighter note, i had my first skype conference call last night, with a bunch of super high people. It's amazing and ironic how you guys going off to somewhere further actually brought us closer. I guess there is some universal truth in the line: Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Too bad my internet was giving me problems though. It was fun!! We should definitely do that again!!

Towards the end.

I dread the first week of A Levels! I wish my timetable wasn't that sucky. For heaven's sake, starting with Chem paper 3 is bad enough, but GP and Bio on the same day? With math the next two days? This is just too much! But ok, i shall not complain. There are worse timetables out there. (For example ppl with the bio, chem, math, ell combi. It's like all subjects in the first week!) I can't wait for all this to end! I can't wait to go home!!! But as usual, i dread packing=( But before all that, there's still the BIG As and the SAT subject tests waiting for me!

40+/- more days is all what's left of 4 years.

Happy Deepavali!

简单与幸福

小时候，幸福是件很简单的事；
长大后，简单是件很幸福的事。

6 days and counting!

My roommate goes to sleep at 6am, which means that throughout the night, she leaves her table lamp on. And guess what?! I can't sleep with the light on!!! =( It never used to bother me before. But right now, i just can't sleep(well)! I think i need to buy that thing to block out light to my eyes. (yea, i don't know what that thing is called.) You know what i am talking about..
