HEY PEOPLE!
(this is for friday, 4th august)
YES YES YES YES YES!
i can finally blog after days of empty posts and posts. i'm so glad to be back.
firstly, i would like to thank EVERYONE that prayed for my mom and everyone who tagged, i appreciate the encouragement and care. really. thank you so much (: the test results showed that my mom had high cholesterol, nothing much else. so the doctor said she just has to control her diet.
secondly, i would like to apologise for not blogging for such a looong time! it's been a few days already... for the past days i've been sleeping at around 1 or 2 =\ so i wasn't able to blog. arggh... i have to blog everyday.. or else i would just forget everything that i did in the day.
the past one week was quite okay, of course i'm not including the tests and stuff. anyway, my application for overseas exchange went through! i would be going to India in october. mhmm, what else happened? see, it's my amnesia acting again... bleargh
the first part of today was a total disaster. it was really really bad. firstly, i woke up really really late and i did not know what to wear for dress down day (we could come in home clothes). secondly, i missed the bus and i had to walk to the interchange. basically, it was just horrible and terrible. but i still managed to reach school just on time. PHEW~ it was quite a spectacular sight to see so many people in school colours, orange, yellow and red. so after that, we had form teacher session with Miss Foo. she talked to us about handing in homework and procrastination. she gave a really interesting analogy --- clearing your bowels. she told us that not doing work or pushing your work to another day is just like not passing motion. and it piles up and increases in amount exponentially, until one day you die because the toxins in you cannot get out of the body. homework is the same, if you allow it to pile up, it would harm you in the end.
first period was chinese! we went through chinese test and laoshi showed us some ACE that we could do. it was quite cool =P then we had social studies then lit. during lit, i was rushing my chinese work! but the student presenters did a really good job. during lit, we were talking about gender bias in the culture and society at large, and how guys always get more advantage over girls in terms of opportunities. mhmm, how unfair..
then it was recess, followed by SPA (science practical assessment) i totally screwed it up. the y-intercept was wrong! oh no... sigh. but never mind, it's not the end of the world yet. then it was maths, we went through some trigo questions and... the fire alarm rang! initially, we stayed in class. because if it was an exercise, Mrs. Mok would definitely know about it. but she didn't, and was convinced that it was just some fraud. however, all the other classes moved out. so in the end we moved out too. then, we realised that it was really not a drill!
IT WAS!!!!
just a mistake.
i heard a year 1 boy accidentally pressed on the alarm button. the whole school's time wasted because of one person. but i guess this is the only way we would actually know if we are ready or not. it's only in times of oblivion where truth stands out i guess.
so we went back to class and had maths quiz. which i bet i'll do very badly too. after school, i settled some chemistry worksheet problems. apparently, a few chemistry worksheets were being passed to Jing Bin, the chem rep. but on the way there, it got misplaced or something. in the end i asked Mrs. Chu to extend the dateline for the two who lost their worksheet and could not hand in today, Jonathan Quek and Jon Loong. Luther managed to finish and hand in. i hope they really understahnd the concepts though.
then i went home to sleep! zorzored till about 5.30. then i showered, prepared myself and left for RGS Dance night, on the way there, i met Er Ge and hs girlfriend. i met Claire and her mom too. they were going back home i guess. so i rushed there. and tried walking from City Hall to Victoria Theatre. i almost got lost! THANKS SO MUCH xiao yu! if not for you, i would have been in timbuktu right now! >< anyway, xiaoyu was my ex-classmate back in primary school. later i reached the theatre, with much guidance from xiaoyu and waited for jiacong to come. later, qihan, zhonghan, boon yang and jason boey came too! and jiawei along with nicole, ying jie, jingbo, li xiang and jian rui. other SLC people who went include jean ting, shi hua, shuhan, joyce, rachel, jingyi andd zheng ning was dancing. who else went? mhmm, not sure. oh, bel was there too. flamenco was so cool! i have to say it's my favourite out of all the dances. flamenco rules! polka-dots are as cool as flamenco =P
later, a fraction of the facs went to raffles city to get supper. but many shops were closed/closing already. so in the end, nicole, jiawei, jian rui and i just went home first. i reached home, had something to eat, watched a lil lil lil bit of TeeVee and then showered. and ended up blogging. WHEEE! going to turn in now. see ya people!
with lots of love,
~emma
forget me not.
