[31st August Thursday]
Today is teachers' day! The highly anticipated day where it is full of fun and laughter..but when i woke up this morning..it was raining very heavily in the west and the sky was as black as ever..is the monsoon season here? Lol nvm..so i did sth only spoilt brats would do..i asked my dad to fetch me to school via car coz i didnt wanna get my shoes wet after the experience the day before..haha yes spoilt but what the heck..it is tough crossing the road during a heavy downpour...muahaha
Teachers' day celebrations was super fun in AC. Summarised version coz i have loads more to update and i am kinda sleepy. AC survivor series: Outwit outmark and outlast. The school council did a video that shows how students and teachers outwit each other and there is a scoreboard. They did the mentos ad on the guy walking backwards to trick the teacher into thinking he is leaving the class when he was actually late..Mr. Barry woolhead talking in chinese asking for hw but got 4 different subtitles! Including tamil! Multiracialism..then he said: Wo yao song ni qu zhuo detention! in an angmoh accent..distorted version of chinese..hahaha..The council ppl also showed how ppl tried to climb over the back gate to escape but the SWAT team would stop them. SWAT stands for student welfare action team and they were carrying baseball bats and nailing the students police style..hahaha the videos were damn funny...plus got a video of Mr. Lim See poi racing with a J1 but the J1 couldnt outrun the teacher..victory for the teacher..hahaha
Choir performance but i cant appreciate it. Jazz ensemble was awesome. Stephen beatboxing while choir alumni performed was cool too. Mr. Barry Woolhead singing: Wake me up when the lecture ends created by Krishmen! Dance ensemble provided a dance. Young teachers sang some song. A J1 band played and sang a song for the teachers. Lame jokes made be the commentators and hosts..what does the victory stick and teachers have in common..they are both staff...and why did cyclops have to close down his school? Coz he only had one pupil...LAME but it was so lame till it was funny..hahaha..Mathan eric and i went wild! Mathan shouting and going crazy..hahaha..prize presentation for long term service teachers. Thats it.
Watched my class present the video to Mdm clare teo but i had to leave. Gave mathan arvin brian and jessica a lift to the east. Reached TK and i felt nostalgic...seeing familiar faces...ppl of the same generation as me..didnt meet the teachers coz i went to TK to meet my friends..Met Jessie and Paula after such a long time..gosh i miss them..and i chatted for quite a long time with them. Met my chess juniors and my beloved GD gang! Brian Mathan Zamir Zakir Kenneth Jingyang Dehong Nallu and myself have reunited once again. Spend quite a long time in TK and we chatted loads..updating ourselves on one another...saw ichun too but couldnt chat with her coz the gang is going to katong shopping centre..
CS again was fun coz it was with the gang..pool day..haha mathan and nallu were going hysterical over the kills made by everyone..haha and it was damn amusing. After a while mathan nallu and i got sian and we went to play pool while the others played dota. Played pool for 2 hours and it was awesome..my luck returned! I regained my pool skills and luck was on my side..made loads of skilled shots and no tyco shots! And i won most of the games...hm..my pool skills are supposed to be rusty..hahaha...and the 3 of us talked about stuff regarding our lives..awesome.
Makaned at parkway foodcourt but on the way there it was like the fellowship experience again..walking in the rain with a small umbrella...ate chicken rice and the rest joined us to makan soon after. We went to look around at the sport shop which we bought nallu's crouch guard..hahaha and bought green tea. We went off to TK to play street soccer despite the slight drizzle..but TK was closed..so we went to haig court but it was crowded..but still we played 7 vs 11..kinda crowded but heck..then we played with the kids living in that neighbourhood..i scored a hat trick! And i saved a damn power shot aiming directly at me..muahahahaha skilled...and nallu was being a referee/ scarecrow...doing nth but still scoring some tyco and skilled goals..LOL
We parted around 6.30. Dehong followed me to singapore post to makan dinner. Met jessica ichun tunghoe and matthew and chatted with them for a bit before they left..dehong and i had a memorable one on one chat..sounds gay but what the heck..we are GD brothers. Talked about problems while we ate...Dehong got braces! Wooohoo !! I bought beer after that and we seperated soon after. Went home.
FIR RAWKZ. I like their songs plus the female singer..muahaha..and jessie told me that her friends find me hot!!! Unbelievable..Joanna also initiated an online conversation with me all of a sudden which was unexpected..haha..called eric and chatted with him for a bit..long day but super nice way to celebrate the end of prelims..and it was quite a smooth day after all.
Judgment day is coming..hopefully it can be smooth too.

Prelims are freaking over!!! YES they are officially over! The 3 week ordeal is done and over with and i have never felt so carefree and elated in the month of august...now we can mock at other ppl have prelims after sept hols while i can slack during sept hols..but definitely not gonna slack so much..gonna do more work coz prelims had quite a number of loopholes and flaws which i am gonna correct...the most exasperatiing thing is that right after prelims..i had nth to do and no plans whatsoever so i had to be a loser by staying at home rotting..how pathetic is the celebrations...
[Wednesday 30th Aug]
LAN day with the guys. Supposedly at some place called ginza..hope i am spelling it correctly..some ulu shopping centre...krishmen, edwin, jue luo, marvin, leonard, jason and i played a solid 4 hours CS shootout which was freaking fun..i thought i had quitted LAN gaming for good coz it was boring and waste of money..but today i was proved wrong coz it was really awesome...scout snipers plus knife maps..iceworld..assault..aztec..dedust..loads more..and we played against leonard and his friends..super fun and we proved to be the superior team! Muahaha but it was a good game overall..
Bought a cake base for the cake the girls baked for mdm clare teo at some confectionary. When we went out of the shopping centre, we thought it was nightfall but realised it was only 5pm. A black sky loomed right above us and we practically ran to the bus stop..but the downpour came down and we were soaked at the bus stop coz the wind kept blowing the rain in...so we were hurdling like a couple of gay penguins while waiting for the bus...so we came up like a game to play..we are the fellowship like in LOTR coz there are 9 guys in the class but 2 are missing...we braved the thunderstorm and boarded the bus to eunice's place..we dropped at buona vista mrt station and changed bus to ulu pandan CC..we were drenched and the girls came with umbrellas..we have to continue the journey on foot coz eunice's place is some bungalow in some ulu place...so we braved the storm once again and the cars whizzing past sprayed water at us! But it was an awesome experience..like training for army days..
Ate dinner at eunice's place..spaghetti, fried shrimps..ribs..blah blah and other rich man's food..and we did the video testimonial as a gift for mdm clare teo for teachers' day. The guys purposely mouthed the words so the screen shows that they are talking with no sounds and just subtitles...hahaha..i did my testimonial with some lame skit with the guys pointing at each other including myself..jason and gang did analogies of mdm. Went home late. Awesome class party.

Prelims are almost over! Yes i can taste freedom! The exhilarating feeling i get when i finished my bio paper was indescribable...it was more of an emotional roller coaster ride coz i was pondering over whether peaunt is a dicotyledonous seed or not...then i decided to ask Mr. Joogal Kishor and he said it is!! Yes i answered the germination question correctly coz it asked for a freaking named example..hahaha and surprisingly econs paper was fantastic! I was satisfied with my answer for the first time and i could finish my DRQ and case study on time! Uber cool. Today was a good day...plus all the tough times are officially over..just left with bio and chem mcq next week..yup. Prelims you are going down soon! Muahahahahaha ok i think i am going hysterical..someone save me..i cant control this ecstatic feeling! Ahhhhh..insanity...
Bleaurgh
Ok cell group after bio with my class was yet another nice experience. I love cell group sessions with the class coz we get to share our problems..interact..express our feelings and share meaningful experiences with one another..Class bonding...though i am the only non christian there..the group consisted of michelle tovya eunice rachel jaime edwin and myself. Edwin called me from the classroom when he could see me..and i was like rummaging through my bag searching for my phone..and i thought he was eric when i picked it up...and i even looked up at the tree when edwin told me he was up on the tree..that was like super stupid and everyone laughed but at least it livened up the atmosphere..hahaha..everyone was relieved that tough exams are finally over...seems that some are kinda disappointed with themselves and i wish i could do sth for them yet i feel so helpless...
I do wanna practise unconditional love..not doing something for another person just to expect sth in return..i wanna mature and get out of that hope belief system..i dun wanna do things just to gain acceptance or to seek attention..i wanna do good without any strings attached..yet it is hard to accept that coz firstly i am a Leo. Leos have big egos and love attention..secondly..my human nature is such that i always wish the other party would do sth nice in return...thats y i am desperately trying to grow out of that and sacrifice my own happiness for the sake of others...sounds tough..yeah it is..no one said it was easy.
Anyway back to cell group session. Worship was cool in the sense that everyone was so solemnly praying and praising God that i admire such unity and their strong relationship with God. Their faith and hope in Him is commendable..sth i will never be able to achieve coz i wanna achieve self reliance..or at least working towards achieving it. Its hard talking to someone else about my problems..so i bottle them up..and i told the rest about this habit of mine..slowly but surely i am opening up..but its tough..yet again no one said it was easy.
Life IS a bed of roses. It is full of beautiful enchanting flowers yet among those lovely things lie sharp pricking thorns. Equilibrium is a state of balance...yet the whole world is constantly shifting in order to attain equilibrium..sounds so philosophical..Danver's theories..hahahaha
I want everyone else to be happy..doesnt matter whether i am happy or not..as long as the rest are.
I am blogging so much coz prelims are more or less over and i have nth better to do...next week is kinda busy? Surprisingly. Bio and chem mcq. Econs lessons after teachers day celebrations which i am trying to opt for a reschedule...gosh my econs teacher...hahaha plus going back to TK hopefully..I REALLY WANT TO GO BACK!!! NO ECONS LESSONS PLZ!!! I WANT A MAKE UP SESSION SOME OTHER TIME!!!! PLZ !!!! Class outing next wed. Birthday treat on 6th sept..hope everything can be smooth sailing!!!!!!

Well on the 16th august was my 18th Birthday! But i couldnt celebrate it because of stupid prelims! Ah well nvm it feels great to be 18. Here's a list of what i can do even though i have already been doing some of them before i was 18..haha sinful sinful..

2) Driver's licence
3) Smoking
4) M18 videos and movies
5) Relief teaching in a proper school

More importantly, my prelims are doing great! Hopefully the rest of the papers can be done smoothly too...GP was good..the compre wasnt that tough after all...Kinda worried about econs essay though coz i seem to have screwed up like 8 marks worth of content..so hopefully i can still do well in econs...yup...math was great. Chem paper 3 on my birthday was great too..maybe its due to birthday luck and all the wishes i received from friends and relatives...hahaha...bio rawked too :D And now its the 5 day break but 2 days have passed already...damn...haha but better to get it over and done with sooner.

Ok anyway the fun part came when we started singing the national day songs..everyone stood on their chairs and swayed and sang their hearts out!!!! WOOOOHOOO!! We went freaking high and started jumping on the chairs and i was busy poking eric with marvin and krishmen..damn fun..hahaha then we put our arms around our friends' shoulders and sang our hearts out too..and we did screamos towards the end of some lyrics...like [ we are singapore..we are singapore..we will stand together, hear the lion RAWWWWWWWWWRRRRRRR ] and [ this is my country, this is my flag, this is my future, this is my LIFFFFFFFFFFEEEE ] and [ This is home surely, as my senses tell me, this is where i wont be ALOONNNNEEEEEEE ] Hahahahaha damn fun!!! So funny seeing everyone going high and not caring that prelims is around the corner...fun memories...another round during graduation.
