A bed of roses & their thorns

See i told u it would like tt *snaps fingers*...ha the prelims has been over for 2 days now:) I have not been playing all tt hard actually, in everything one must practice moderation. Hee...in retrospect it was not too bad. Considering tt i really thought i would only be able to do ok in art while flunking the rest of my subs...ok the results aren't out yet so im still in e pending process. But I'm hopeful. God's grace really:)

Quite surreal actually, when i put my pen down for the last paper...then juz sitting there waiting... haha yeah here i go again so totally mesmerized by this thing called time. Really...juz tt one moment im panicking to finish and e next im bubbly n excited to finally get out of the hall:)

So yeah, went with clement, tim, ped, yongXi to far east...hee then later left to catch up with chang!!!! My old sec school fren from mg:) Hee...we went shopping n all catching up over lunch. So lovely. Intended to watch wonka but in the end didn't. Sigh, this pathetic girl has not yet watched it...in fact she has not watch a single movie in e cinemas the whole year!! Oh but she has watched e sound of music:) Does tt count?

Oh yes then along comes sat...chiong to school in a cab to face my clay again. The cabbie wuz so cynical so both of us launched into a debate abt life...haha he kept telling me how pointless it wuz to work hard. The clay looks good:) Yay, thanx to mr dun's help. Then yay went for lunch with jamie, mindy and LL, to holland v for lunch:) Thai express!! my fave:) hee. Oh yes...then later flirted with the idea of getting some dessert like mud pie!!! But then decided no more cash so shd juz forget it. Hee..

Right then the highlight for that sat night wuz watching the Bone Collector. Sweet. Did i ever mention how much i love forensic science. Sometimes i wished so dearly tt i did take science...then i would be able to venture into forensics:) I'm quite serious. Though my mum thinks im mad to want to look at dead people everyday. But no it's juz tt i hate it when a murderer gets away scott free.

Oh yes n did i mention i juz cut my hair today? Ooh lala.

Haha i feel like such a narcissist. This whole entry is like a 'Grace Days of our Lives special'. Hee... but i like looking back and reaccounting on stuff that i did tt made me happy. In fact most of my journals do start with an assessment of the week or day. Yeah...cartharsis not only happens when we are sad.

8a) Describe the global variations in solar radiation and discuss the extent to which these variations can be used to explain the global atmospheric circulation. (16)

8b) Explain the phenomenon of El Nino Southern Oscillation(ENSO).

...yeah...if u haven't already guessed, today wuz physical geog. Yeah. N for section B i chose this question yeah...and i left 8a) blank. Yeah. So...i lost 16 marks in this section...yeah. Just thought u all would like to know.

And mindy i received your totally random postcard. Such an honour i say:) If i have the time i shall mail u one totally random postcard as well:) Say it doesn't take very long to arrive to the recipient huh...

I survived today. Bought green apple mentos yesterday while studying geog. I don't like it. Strawberry is nicer. Hee...

Juz came back from kap:) Well i let myself have a little break today by gg for Lovemg...it's good to be back, yeah. The school has changed through all the renovations and all but hey most of the memories are there...except that they tore down the home ec kitchens!! And the pri school art room...and the hop-scotch area...and a couple of other things...sigh. But I guess it wuz time to move on anywayz.
Yay im glad i got to meet up with mengz and denise:) Haha everyone else from 4B1 '03 were chao mugging so only the 3 of us plus huiru and rachel managed to meet up. Ah wellz. I really have to say tt i regretted not treasuring the times that i had in mg. Yeah...i guess at that time i wuz still this immature brat who wuz so wrapped up in her little fantasies of life that she forgot to live. Yupz some things juz never change...my head is forever in the clouds. When i look back im surprised at how hazy my memory of my 10 years in mg seems to be. Ok fine, i do credit myself as a person with quite a good memory so...yeah it wuz rather disappointing tt i dun rmb the past which i so long to treasure now.
As i look at the mg newsletter given to us...all the pics of girls in their cute little sailor moon uniforms...i wish i took the time to enjoy the moment of being in their positions then. Now, i can only look back in retrospect. Yeah time. So fascinating. I think im gg to make the decision to treasure each and every moment tt God has given to me...so that i will not live in regret for not having live that moment.
Yup, even as i attempt to shove all the info in my lect notes into my head...i will enjoy what im studying and see as part of the beauty of His wonderful creation. Yeah and im of course thankful for the people who are gg through it too, braving it together.
Well this week of prelims have not gone too bad:) Really by His grace. But my time management skills is practically non-existent so my essays are usually working on the law of diminishing returns...ha. Yup hopefully next week will be better and joy i end on thurs. Sorry to all the science folks out there, dun mean to rub it in! All the best for prelims j2s and yeah rest in the Shadow of the Almighty why don't u:)

I juz visited Chloe's blog...and yeah i am scared abt experiencing the culture shock tt i so dread. Indeed...mayb I am a snob deep down in the inner recesses of me. Oh crap that sux. How can it be? yeah actually i rmb having this conversation with joey...abt who we will meet in uni and stuff...haha dun think it will be all that bad in arts and social science.
But seriously what m i scared about? I am excited abt hopefully being able to meet my sec school frens but then again I'm afraid it can never be the same again. Yeah...life has shown that friends are that arbitrary unit that comes and goes...so it's hard to say whether or not we can still click. Whether we r still at tt same frequency and stuff. It's scary...but mayb im juz being this big faaatt snob. I mean who hasn't changed?
But what if it's hard to assimilate into such a new environment. I heard it's really diff. Then again i heard alot of stuff abt jc life that i still reckon is perceptions and untrue so there. haiz. So whatever lahz. Can't be tt bad, I tot things would be bad but hey, jc life is like this crystallization process that cramps all kinds of experience into a little crysolite and hey u come out changed, a better person.
I can't even rmb life very much before i went into jc...then again i wuz a freakin blur pok so... yeah lah. So very ironic that such a short span of time can give u what years of living couldn't. But hey, mayb at this point of time we are at our peak, the most awake and most aware of the intangibles. Like friendship, I think i have learnt to truely appreciate it now:) yeah lah...ignorance is bliss...i will find out next year anywayz...

OMGosh my eyes can barely open as i type this, but i have been suffering from computer deprivation tt i juz have to go online for a teeny winny while. Juz came back from cass's house, studied like mad today. Went through Othello. Woah, after gg through the book i feel as if i can see things in a much more detailed and analytical way than i did in j1. Yes, the nuances of the play...not juz the yes and no, the black and white. Do i make any sense??
Ah...so romantic... his unkindness may defeat my life but never taint my love and this other quote:
Perdition catch my soul,
But i love thee, and when I love thee not,
Chaos is come again.
Haha. So yeah the time today wuz spent trying to get a proper consultation with the teachers then a frantic rush to study e1. But im honestly more dead for geog. Ergh...Anywayz...im beginning to enjoy studying, so that's good thing. Im actually excited at the prospect of reading my john sloman book tmr...so wierd.
Yeah lah, this is quite random but i think im wierd...but im proud of it:) Haha...rachael u can laugh at my strange fantasies all u want!!!
