hello people,

didn't go to school today. woke up relatively late in the morning, then had diarrhoea again, so i decided to stay at home and rest (and slack). fortunately it is a wednesday, or else i wouldn't want to take leave. cause wednesdays are the more free days where less work is given. so i slept all the way till 9 plus. in the morning. then i went to the polyclinic.

i feel so glad that i actually brought the iPod along. if not, i would probably die of boredom. mhmm, i got quite upset while waiting cause the whole trip wasted my 2 to 3 precious time of studying and sleeping. and so many people that queued later than me actually consulted first. that made me a little grumpy. but there were babies and children now and then and they were really cute. the best thing about being young is probably innocence and naivete. i wished i was who i was, a normal kid with colourful experiences every single day. unblemished, beautiful colours.. so i rushed back home after getting medicine from the pharmacy. at least while waiting for the dispensary, i went to get cha siew bao and looked around the pharmacy store and saw some cool brands like Eucerin, Rebound Vitamins and stuff.

back home, i quickly ate my lunch. i figured out that i would be late for the test if i took bus. so i eventually settled for a cab. mhmm, used $11.70 for the trip. a little bit heart broken. but other choices i guess. reached school, rushed to the classroom and everyone was surprised that i was there. i told Ms Foo that i had diarrhoea in the morning. then she told me that i have it quite often. then i told her that i have a weak stomach, just like some of my other family members. she told me to drink Yakult. thanks Ms Foo for the advice. oh, Oon Beng, thanks so much for the foolscap paper. owe you lots. the test paper was moderately hard. perhaps cause i wasn't in the right state of mind to do the test. too anxious i guess.

after that, i decided to go home.. until i met Zhi Yi from my ex primary school. he was my classmate. and he asked me if i wanted to go to bendemeer primary to find our teacher, Mr Ravi. i thought for a while and later said yes. we boarded the bus as it came few minutes later. we talked and chatted about life on the bus, aspirations, and other stuff. by the way, i wasn't from bendemeer primary. i was from catholic high. so we reached there. and found out that Mr. Ravi wasn't teaching there! but we realised that Mdm. Sin-Oh was. so eventually we met her and talked to her. it is really nice meeting someone you thought you might never meet again. all the memories just come flowing back into your head. all the deja vou when i see the primary school kids running around.. Mdm. Sin-Oh transferred there because she wanted a new environment to work in. i guess that's very true. if it was me, i wouldn't want to do repetitive work. i need new tasks, new challenges too. i admire her for the courage to accomplish such visions.

she also told us to treasure our secondary school friends. which i thought was very true. she said that secondary and army friends would most probably be your closest friends ever. cause the working environment does not allow much interaction. there's also much backstabbing and awful occurences in that world.

while still with her, mom called and reminded me about the interview with my elder brother's girlfriend! and i almost freaked out cause i forgotten about it =\ after that i rushed home. Zhi Yi also went home immediately because he had tuition. but somehow, it just wasn't my day. i kept taking the wrong buses. and those buses led me to nowhere. so in the end, i took the MRT back to yishun. mhmm, it's quite sad actually. missing so many buses. and ending up in the wrong places. just like taking a path that you don't know where it leads to, and finding youself ending up in the wrong place..

yupp, reached home, had dinner then interview. gotta go now. see ya soon.

love,
~emma
