Crashed

16 Sep

Ez-link’s card still not found ): Oh well, still going to pray that some kind soul picked it up and returned it to the bus interchange or something (:

Anyways, we’ve finally gotten back our General Paper(GP) papers today. I guess I was disappointed? I expected to fare fairly well in Paper 1 and score really bad in Paper 2 since the paper was difficult. To my horror, I saw a scribbled 25 on my script. What’s worst was that it was actually 23. But the main problem why I was upset was because of my HANDWRITING. For more than three paragraphs, the teacher filled the sides with question marks as he couldn’t read my handwriting at all. The other reason why I was sad was that I tried my best for this paper and really hoped that I could get some constructive comments for it. However the teacher couldn’t even read my handwriting so he couldn’t comment much. I think I need to go for my penmanship workshop.

Oh well, the thing to be happy for Paper 2 was that I passed though the paper was tough. It was unexpected actually. I couldn’t answer most of the questions and I realised my main problem is still LIFTING. Lots of ‘L’s were written over my paper :l Also, I got 7 for my AQ! Totally shocked :X I mean, I got 2 marks for the previous AQ. So this time’s 7/8 was .. happy news (: Which means I can do it! At first I thought that the teachers marked leniently this time, however Ms Mok assured that they did not. So yeah, I’m really surprised and happy. But still, it’s so difficult to forget those marks lost in Paper 1 due to my illegible handwriting. So thanks to my AQ, I got a 29 1/2 for my Paper 2 (:

Now that I’m sure I can do well for GP and Economics, I better work hard on my poor subjects. I’m sure I can do it! Oh yeah, it’s true this time I got worst results than compared to Promotional Examination mentioned by YangJie. But that, I was lucky. So I can’t argue. I’m sure if I was unlucky, I couldn’t have been promoted.

Okay, enough rantings. Got to study. Not going to work on the blogskin today, Saturday perhaps (:

I shouldn’t be thinking about it at all. I mean, it’s just .. a coincidence. Nothing more.

Never Say Die – YUI

15 Sep

Finally, got a chance to watch YUI’s 2nd song off her new single that has yet to be released (:

Seriously, her songs are getting more and more meaningful. She never fails to surprise us always.

Enjoy (:

Translation

At times we get sick and tired of everything
But good things are part of life too
That’s how we continue living on
Baby Never mind Never say die

Deception occurs sometimes
Even your reflection in the mirror probably knows that
Looking up, we’re flying right into outer space
Where will the boundless blue skies of tomorrow be?

Things which you just got to do
Be it accomplishing them or it not going smoothly
Even when you’re feeling down
Baby Never mind Never say die

Overly-kind people are just no match for sneaky ones
But nothing can be changed
I feel like relying on God
Tossing in a coin It’s alright

At times we get sick and tired of everything
But good things are part of life too
That’s how we continue living on
Baby Never mind Never say die

Though exhausting all energy and falling asleep
Is a way to take my mind off thoughts for a while

Things which you just got to do
And at times you can’t see clearly
Stopping in my tracks and thinking
But Baby Never mind Never say

At times we get sick and tired of everything
But good things are part of life too
That’s how we continue living on
Baby Never mind Never say die

The lyrics to this song is really so meaningful and especially a great encouragement right now. Even if I do badly right now, I’ll not give up because I know it’ll be much better tomorrow!

Lastly, YUI is LOVE! ;D

 

The UN-lucky streak

15 Sep

I can’t think of anything more unlucky than this. I lost my ez-link card and my phone is spoiled. Totally .. fustrated. What’s with this unlucky streak. I seriously can’t believe it. It’s like deja vu. When I alighted the bus, I did not tap my card because my hands were full. Also, when my mum called me during the bus ride, I had a feeling that the card might slip out of my pocket. Who knew it was so accurate.

Ahh! Just totally pissed off right now. I wish some kind soul can pick up my card and turn it in to the interchange. If not, it would be the second time I lost it and I’ll have to make it again. I think it’s gona cost more now. DARN!

Back to school

14 Sep

Finally gona settle down and type a proper post. It seems that only on school days I can get a nice and long post out of myself. The other time, I’m just too distracted with other things that are happening around me.

Anyways, Saturday was WeiQin’s birthday. I was pretty worried that someone would let the cat out of the bag and luckily no one did and it was a success this time round (: I met WeiQin at the bustop near our houses and walked up the long stretch of road which led us to the MRT station. I could see she was a little disappointed because there were few people going to celebrate her birthday with her on that day itself.

I was feeling really guilty already but tried not to reveal it. I decided to go on with the act that I didn’t care others weren’t going and convinced her that the others were really busy and can’t make it. On the mrt to Marina Bay station, she was busy with the H1 Paper and hence I was able to text the others without her finding out.

I knew it was a success when she started hitting me the moment she saw GuoBin and the others at one corner of Marina Bay MRT. She was happy and surprised. YangJie baked muffins and gave it to her. We could recognize Jolene’s creation right away. Hers was a professional piece(at least it looked like it :X) and YangJie’s was a mischievous smile. As usual, MingSheng’s was completely .. a mystery. We couldn’t figure out the concept of the design but WeiQin was happy nonetheless.

Ben and Jerry’s Chunk Fest at Marina Barrage was unexpected. I mean we didn’t expect a wide field of grasspatch and people flying kites. I wanted to fly a kite too but I just couldn’t find the stall selling it. So I had to live with looking at the others having fun. We shared 12 flavors of Ben n Jerry’s icecream together. I managed to get the flavor I love the most in the first spoon, Chocolate Fudge Brownie! :D

After that, we took pictures and went for dinner. YangJie sadly, had to leave and we went to Marina Square after Lao Ba Sha was voted out. Apparently, only Melvin and Jolene voted for it. The others couldn’t give up the aircon on that warm evening.

However, we had to say it turned out almost the same as we had to sit outside for Carl’s Junior. Anyways, it’s been a long time since I ate beef fries. Pleasant experience. Found out that Melvin worked in Changing Appetites before. Ahh! I want to try out the Frankenstein Mudpie. I heard that it’s real good and the other time when I went with Jaslyn, we ordered something else which was delicious too (: Going to go there and try out the mudpie! :D

Anyways, the day ended with laugher and exhaustion :P Let the photos do the rest of the work (:

*Photos to be updated later*

Oh yeah. This was what Jeannette and I doodled on the whiteboard of computer lab 3 on the last week of term 3, Friday.

Also, my Heartbreaker finally came by post and here’s a picture of it! :D Looks great isn’t it? Not that normal album jacket you would normally see.

Oh yeah. And yesterday my family and I hit the gym at Orchid Country Club. I had to say I was happy that my family had responded well to my plans of exercising every Sunday. I know it’s not enough but still, I’m happy that they are supportive of it and even joined me :D

Yesterday marked the end of the one week “holiday” break and today I’m back to school. Been long since I’ve since saw my friends and classmates. General Paper lesson killed the mood with Application Question exercise. The packed schedule totally starved me and I thought I was going to die from hunger. Luckily my normally deemed useless fats helped prevent me from dying.

Well, yeah. Have to do my homework now! If I’m free later, I shall continue working on my blogskin (:

Have a good day people! I mean night.

I must be crazy to be working on a blogger blog skin right now. Absolutely crazy. There’s school tomorrow. I should be sleeping already! But still, this is so far the longest time I’ve spent on a skin. Going to make it a success! Right now, there’s still much to be done.

Shall turn in for the night now (: Have a good night.
