Birthday Month's Angel

I am guilty of slacking around every time I come online. In fact I usually come online with an agenda in mind but upon logging online, I do nothing but slack, chat, basically non-constructive stuff excluding catching up with friends.

Vesak Day 2007

To shumin:
yay! I am glad you've finally found your source of motivation. I've found mine too. Let's work towards our goals. Like what Mr Sng said, with determination and discipline, we can achieve what we want! By the way, Seventeen magazine is always looking for interns. You can put together the magazine with them after A'levels. If possible I would like to experience it too (: whee let's write write write! You just have your gp papers to tackle. I have gp and literature! ah. Hand in hand, we shall work hard and reach out for our dreams. Cheers!

To all fellow Buddhists:

Happy Vesak Day!

卫塞节快乐!!

I am still feeling rather puzzled why this year's Vesak Day is after my birthday. Usually it would be somewhere in the start of May. Went to the temple to pray this morning with my family. Then had vegetarian lunch. Absolutely delicious! I love the spring rolls. Vegetarian food's not that bad after all (:

My dad decided to go to the Guan Yin Temple at Waterloo Street after that. Oh my. The place was like real crowded. Crowds really put me off. Especially when the people are holding the joss-sticks with the ashes (or what do you call that) falling all over you. I must admit I don't exactly enjoy going there on such occasions. Managed to push my way through into the temple eventually.

Went to a shop at the Fu Lu Shou building for prayers with a monk there. It's still crowded.

My brother treated me and himself to roadside ice-cream after that. I picked mixed flavours and him, cookies-n-creme.

I had a sudden cravings for sweet potato soup and my grandma cooked it for me and my whole family!






This was actually my second serving, and my dinner (:

Yummy yummy.

And I spotted some really interesting objects around my house. Look here!




What is this? Can you tell?

It's actually two aloe vera stuck together! YES! They are twins. What adorable aloe veras... Hee my dad bought them from the supermarket cos' he thought they are cute.

And now... this:



What does this look like to you? (Answer to be revealed... NOT NOW =p)

Here's a shot which I found to be rather artistic, taken during the kbox session with twin:



That's about all for today. I love photo-filled posts. I am sure you love them too. Wait till I get a new camera. Then you get better quality photos to look at (:

'If you don't want to lose him as a friend then you should not have done what you did to us what.'
Oh no. Just what have I done? I am on the verge of losing yet another Aquarius friend.
It wasn't a moment of harshness. I am sure I was clear-headed. I knew what I was doing. And I was determined to not regret. I didn't regret. Ok maybe a bit. Only after I realised what a villain I had been. I didn't expect their reactions to be so big. I didn't think about the consequences. In fact, I think the whole matter is of different degree of importance to you, me and them. No amount of apologies could make up for what I have done. But I don't think I have done anything wrong. Perhaps it was some over-reaction on your part? Or me being too ignorant of such emotions. Or maybe some kind of communication breakdown between us existed. I guess it's too late. I just hate to admit that I think I lost a friend in you.

熟悉的温柔

深情密码 is really nice. It kinda struck a chord with me. The search for memories. Past memories. Something intangible yet you know it's there. It's not about seeing. It's about believing and feeling.

熟悉的温柔
歌手: 周渝民

我
总是一个人走
心里却充满空洞
用太多借口
来弥补寂寞
却无法
找回自由

爱
曾经擦身而过
喜欢
在记忆里停留
习惯搜寻你的
只要你就足够
原来我们一直曾在那
原来我们一直都在那
最美的时候

你熟悉的温柔
从不曾离开我
在我眼里
看到什么
全部都是你的笑容
我终于明白
你一定会是我幸福的执着
这一次
我不会
放手

在你心底
看到拥有
你也一直在等着我
再多的语言
也很难去表达
这一份承诺
我不会放手
我要勇敢的
爱着你

Complexity is life and its people

Life is complex. Living in a society is way too complicated. The complexity is way beyond explanation. So are the people whom we meet, talk and spend time with every day. Be it your good friends, your seniors, your juniors, your family or just some random stranger you cross paths with...

Complexity of life and its people. That was what twin and I were ranting about just now after our kbox session. Today's kbox session was filled with the highest level of enthusiasm ever in our history. Yeah man. It feels wonderful to be able to hold on to the microphone the whole time. And of cos' we K-ed all the duets we know and could remember. Twiceee. Fun (: We were like alternating between the male and female part. My voice became rather manly after a few hours (cos' coarse) so I took up more male parts of the duets. Ha. FUN (:

Then twin was especially agitated when Lee Hom's songs played. Waha. Then she was singing the song, dedicating to herself. Yeah apparently he is her LOVE.

Yep FUN (: I could not emphasize more.

We had sushi for dinner. Cheap but tasty sushi from Carrefour. We were so famished after the kbox session. It lasted for nearly 6 hours! What do you expect? Three bowls of titbits were not enough. The ice lemon tea made my throat itch. Too much sugar. I really can't stand drinks which are too high on sugar content.

I have a sexy voice now. So does twin. So glad that we get to spend quality time together today. It's been years since we last did. hee. And I realised I can sing better with such a voice. Haha!

Turning seventeen has made my life more fruitful and exciting! I'm loving it.

其实还爱你

其实还爱你
歌手: 阿沁 编曲:陈飞午

我讨厌阴天的风
冷得那么刺痛
只有你能够抚平所有的寂寞
昨天的风筝在角落
被谁丢到了路口
我很不想让你找到离开的理由
每一夜闭上眼睛
我看到了恶梦你微笑
但是旁边的人不是我
天空切开一道裂缝
直接割到我心中
不想装作脆弱也不想爱得懦弱

其实我非常爱你不想失去你
难道我没有权利说我不愿意
你给了他的吻
虽然只有余温
可知道我多渴望抓住你的心
我知道他很爱你你怕他伤心
我每天假装开心害怕你离去
可不可以任性
求求你不要去
藏在我心里最后一句
其实还爱你

Touching song isn't it? This song depicts a guy struggling with his conflicting emotions. How much he still loves the girl... despite all. The lyrics are quite heart-wrenching. I like 阿沁's songs.

Gonna sing this song at Kbox later... It's a twins' date! (: (: (:

让我 EMO 一下

A moment of emo-ness. Pardon me.

Ok so yes after what happened yesterday... As fate would have arranged no better, I ended up retracing the route which we walked together last time. Late at night, lotsa cars, tired, ulu place, feeling slightly angry. I never imagined myself walking that route ever. I mean it's so out of Orchard Road, why would I go there for no reason. But I ended up there today, all alone this time though. Now I realised how fortunate I was to have company the last time.

缘分总是在玩弄人, 尤其是我们两个. 两年前是这样, 现在仍然是这样. 到底要玩弄到几时啦...

生日前的那一夜, 我梦见他... 那个我曾经挂念好久的他...
再次在梦镜里看见他, 感觉好开心...
梦的详情不怎么记得... 只记得有他, 有我, 还有我兴奋的心情
他交给我一封信, 读着读着, 我便从梦中清醒.
好可惜, 多希望能够在梦里呆久一些...
不知道你现在如何...
本以为已经忘了你...
其实我的心的一个小角落仍然放不下你.
真希望能再见你一面.

头发剪短了, 可以再长长
幸福失去了, 未免能找回.

生活有时阴差阳错, 你错过了一时, 就似乎错过了一生...

爱一个人不一定要拥有, 但是拥有一个人就一定要好好地爱他...

Three reasons why I should get a new digicam

I was struggling with putting on the bear hp keychain which Pei Yu gave me for my birthday. There's no hook for me to unhook, put on then hook again. The bear was 'strangled' and its limbs twisted. Poor thing. It's finally freed now, after I took it out from the ring thing... I shall name it 'Daffy' ! (:

I have decided to get a camera finally. A sony one most likely (: Why?

1) Because my hp camera isn't that great (powerful) after all. Like I've said before, I like good quality photos ;)

2) I can't take photos of my hp itself, or anything that has to do with my hp. Example: Like the new keychain which I just put onto it.

3) The only digital camera I have at home is so lousy that I want to dump it straight into the bin. The battery went flat when I wanted to take photo of myself and my birthday cake. How bad is that?

Enough said. My search for a good buy starts tomorrow!

I am seventeen!

I am seventeen! Yipppeee Yay! Turning seventeen has really granted me the courage I never had (:

JYS and Li Wen sprang a surprise birthday party for me yesterday. They sang a birthday song for me at my door step with the candles unlit then inside my house again with the candles lit. My birthday cake is superrrr niceee and delicious (forget the calories will'ya?)

(I know how boring a blog post can be without photos... shall spare you the agony... =D )


My birthday cake! It looks tasty, doesn't it ? ;)

Shu Min helping me cut my cake...

Apparently she didn't do that great a job. Look at my 'slice' of birthday cake! :(

It's not just me, the rest were as bewildered by her cake-cutting skills!

Comparison Time!

Jue Hui's SLICE of cake

Birthday Girl's CHUNK of cake

They felt sorry for me and tried to make up by sticking (recycling) the candle onto that chunk of cake...

It looked like some chocolatey salad... should I say yummy or yucks ? ^^

The icing words which I was expected to lick...

Licking...

Finished licking mission, VICTORY! (Fingers blur by camera)

What's a party without food? Delicious ones of cos!

Present presentation... me, my presents and my darlings!

Thanks girls for the time and efforts put into planning the party and getting the cake and presents. I love the presents really... They are the most practical presents ever (: I feel bad that you girls spent so much on the presents. Thank you for making my seventeenth birthday a blessed and loved one. Thank you for everything! Love you loads; forever.

I want to thank the following friends for your birthday wishes too:

16th Birthday Eve (:

I seriously need a ear-stick detector. I never seem to be able to find the ear-sticks when I drop them. Urgh. So now I only have one ear-stick in my left ear. Running out of ear-sticks. Forgot to get them when I was out jus now.

CPA Meeting at Geylang Police Station jus now. Apparently I was the only one on time =D Elected the committee, exchanged contacts, decided on the tagline and finally brainstormed and discussed some ideas. 4 representatives from DHS (Shu Min, Jing Hui, Yun Shan and myself), 2 from Manjusri (Gauri and Xiu Zhen) and 1 from Macpherson (Daryl).

Spent the afternoon at Suntec, shopping of cos ;) Celebration on birthday eve, by myself. Had lunch at Polar in Citylink. Happily enjoying my latte, hot dog roll and my 爱情小说.





Then after a while I started thinking about my holidays schedule... which actually made me realise that I may not be having much of a holiday at all. Depressed, I returned to reading my novel.

After one hour or two, I went to Marina Sq. First to Creative then to Mini Toons, Action City etc and Times. I remember buying Torey Hayden's 'Murphy Boy' as a birthday present for myself last year. So I was thinking maybe I can get another book as a present for myself. But after thinking it through, I decided not to. Reason being there's many many books at home which I bought but have not read, Murphy Boy's one of them. And there's also my literature novels. So I went back to Creative and get the headset...



After buying it, I walked back to Citylink and sat down on one of the benches. Excited, I took out the headset from the packaging then tried it on my zen neeon. Woohoo cool. The surrounding sounds were cancelled and all I can hear is Jay's singing (song: 珊湖海).

Byebye to my cranky, old headset.



Oh ya. There's some Powerpuff Girls show at the stage area and I took this blurry photo of them. I don't get as excited seeing them already waha! It's a good thing alright. Maybe if I see Doraemon. I am starting to adore Doraemon all over again! And I find the boy from Precious Moments cute too! Saw him at PS the last time and I almost jumped down from the second storey to shake his hand. Fortunately whoever-was-with-me-at-that-time stopped me. LOL.



Just now on the way back, there was this toddler with his grandparents and mother who boarded the train at City Hall. And he was crying and screaming at the top of his voice... till I reached my station. I think everyone on the train heard him. I don't know what happened but yeah his screaming's really loud. I wasn't listening to zen neeon at that point of time. Yep was quite irritated but who knows, I might have been like this before.

My parents said that I was really naughty when I was young. When I asked for a toy and they refused to get it for me, I would sit down on the floor and start brushing my butt against the ground until they agreed. LOL seems pretty comical now as I imagined it. heehee.

Anyway fun day out but burned a hole in my wallet (not literally duh!). Spent quite alot on the headset. And I am still deciding if I should get a new digital camera. My handphone's camera's not exactly that powerful. I like good quality photos (: But canon, sony or casio? I can't decide. What's your take? ^^

Tata. Shall go and wash up then come back online to organize the songs in my zen neeon. WJ jus recommended this MV on youtube.com which brought tears to my eyes after watching. It's a 8-minute long MV. A touching one too... just like the movie 'Daisy'. Go watch it people!

KISS- Because I am a girl
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQCCvrdbRMI

When I was watching it, my feminist side and my girly side were fighting. Cos the chorus is something like 'Love is my everything because I am a girl'. Then I was like 'argh! what crap' initially. I seem to have extreme views these days. Not good, I know. But anyway, towards the end of the MV, my heart melted. Yep (: One of my favourite MVs I must say. 童话 MV doesn't seem as impressive now. hee.

My mom just passed me a birthday card from Yi Xian. Aw. Thank you Yi Xian! How thoughtful of her. I think she told her parents to send it for her since the postal stamp on it says 25 May. Thanks girl. I am touched.

Not forgetting to thank JYS who gave me cookies yesterday, as an advanced birthday present. I already feasted on four pieces just now. The cookies were really nicely-shaped and way tastier than the ones I bought before. Cos they were given by my best sisters! Cheers.

Thank you Pei Yu too for the nice bear keychain. Pei Yu remembers my birthday every year =D
Thanks Li Wen for your early birthday wishes.

I feel so loved, even when my birthday is only tomorrow. YAY!

Be happy every day!

Let us always meet each other with a smile, for a smile is the beginning of love' - Mother Theresa

And love is the greatest thing of all (:

Bon Voyage to Everyone!

Of cos, I didn't forget to say 'Bon Voyage' to the other scholars like Yi Xian, Geok Joo, Shi Ling, Yu Ting etc etc. I cannot remember now. My mind's telling me to sleep. Hee. So ya,

BON VOYAGE EVERYONE!

一路顺风!

6月17日见!!

Bon Voyage!

Dedicated to Yun Yin and Eileen who will be leaving for Beijing tomorrow:

They will only be back on 17 June. What good friends they are right? Won't even be in Singapore to celebrate my seventeenth birthday with me :(

Gonna miss them loads leh. JAYYES is like gonna be incomplete for a month. Left with JAYS. Eh sounds not bad wor. LOL can also join youthforcauses 2008 =p

Anyway Yun Yin and Eileen,

ENJOY YOURSELVES IN CHINA BUT DON'T FORGET JAYS IN SINGAPORE. TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOURSELF AND MUST REMEMBER TO THINK ABOUT US BEFORE YOU SLEEP EVERY NIGHT!

BON VOYAGE. 我送你离开千里之外... Beijing China 几千海里 是奔向我的距离... 天有一片云 那是我的泪在送你...

Aw. I feel sad. 离别总是让人感伤...

Till 17 June... 姐妹们, 请多多保重喔!

Here's a photo of me so that you two can remember how I look like!

whee! 蛙蛙 trying to look like 兔兔!

Westlife!

I am back to listening to Westlife's songs. Yeah I used to really love their songs. The songs do bring back some memories...

-Daffodil Day (Organized by Singapore Cancer Society)
Went for the street sales of the Daffodil pins at Orchard Road. It's definitely not the ideal place for such street sales or any sort of flag day but the places we were permitted to go were limited and Orchard is also nearer to Newton, that makes reporting back more convenient. My perseverance level and determination today was not that high. Practically on the verge of giving up. I don't exactly enjoy such street sales or flag days seriously. I prefer direct services but charity organizations do need funds and it's one of the ways which I can help them.

I found this quote when I browsed through a copy of SALT magazine at Silras Home in Buangkok last year and thought that this is really interesting:

Fundraising is like making a marriage proposal... If the answer is no, keep trying!

I tried to bear this in mind the whole time when I was selling the Daffodil pins but it's hard.

-YouthforCauses 2007
Registering the various teams at the counter was pretty ok. Some of the teams have really interesting names too. One team has a Japanese name which is a meaningful phrase when translated. Quite a number has the word 'hope' in them. Like our 'Pillar of Hope' last year.

Looking back, it has been a year since our project was implemented. The journey had been long and tough, but rewarding and enjoyable. It's funny how four of us, different ages, from different backgrounds, different nationality, with different personalities managed to come together as a team because of our common secondary school and passion, eventually clinched the Best Volunteer Management Award and kept in touch till today.

Fate is just so amazing. I didn't regret joining the team, although I did spend quite a while considering if I was ready to take up the challenge and juggle my studies and the project. I went for the first flag day on my birthday last year together with 4J. Seems like the affinity had been there right from the start. It's been a great experience and I made many new friends. I've matured within the process and seen more of the outside world.

I am glad that JH, LW, Eileen and Jess are able to get the same great experience this year. Rainbow Connection, I have faith in you! Jiayou! Hope I will be able to fulfill my duties as a peer mentor.

- Pet Therapy Session at Man Fut Tong Nursing Home
Went for the session with Jason and Boon Kian after YFC on Saturday. It was definitely an eye-opener. The dogs were trained and suited to be therapist dogs. They are just so adorable! One's a cocker spaniel and the other, I don't know what breed but it has pointed ears, quite small sized and has brown fur. kawaii! I wasn't afraid of them then, partly cos' I was in jeans and covered shoes so their sniffing noses didn't terrorise me. They are friendly too. The cocker spaniel knows how to give a high five.

So the therapy session commenced with the elderly on wheelchairs interacting with the dogs. We were given the lease of the dogs at some point of time but I was at a loss of what to do with them. I don't have any biscuits for them so it's hard getting them to listen to my commands. After a while I went to talk to one of the elderly. Conversed with her in Hokkien. There's like a bonding for we have a common dialect. We shared alot about ourselves. Soon the session ended and we helped to wheel the elderly to wash their hands, after which they returned to their rooms. It's wonderful to see the elderly enjoying themselves while interacting with the dogs. And learning that the presence of the volunteers and therapist dogs had added joy to their day and brought smile to their faces.

This volunteering experience makes me more determined to pick up Cantonese and also to consider if I should volunteer at an old folks' home for my NYAA instead of a family service centre. I would like to render services at both if I had all the time in the world. I still can't decide. Oh well.

Yeah so my weekend has definitely granted me the break I needed, brought back the volunteering spirit in me and made my mood change for the better. I hate myself feeling emo and shedding what tasted like salt water. I like to smile and see people smile (:

i.e. BEING HAPPY EVERY DAY!

I have also realised that I am actually leading quite a sad life, studying, studying and nothing else but studying. I shall find more new and interesting events to add colours to my life. Don't want a colourless rainbow to be hanging over my head. I know I should do my tutorials too...

I am currently reading Torey Hayden's 'Murphy's Boy'. Although I have only read like one-fifth of the book, I can tell you that it's a good book that is worth reading ^^

That's all for now. Last week of Term 2. And then my very special day comes. May it be a stress-free and work-free day, filled with joy and happiness. Cheers!

Passion VS Responsibility

It's a struggle betwween passion and responsibility. It's the passion which has led to the attainment of the responsibility. Sometimes the responsibility gets so overwhelming that my passion seems bleak. Lost, demoralized, helpless.

Passion v.s. Responsibility

And too big a responsibility makes passion a burden... what's next?

It's getting hard for me to give a genuine smile from my heart these days. Too many problems, too many worries sank in. It's tough. Really.

I've changed. Or rather things have changed. The situation, the people, my mindset, my feelings, my perception and my confidence level. I was more cheerful last year, took things in my stride and did things in my pace.

This year, I started to take things more seriously. I pushed myself too hard. I took up too many responsibilities. I was too ambitious. And I get stressed too easily, leading to a poor attitude and a sad social life. I don't know if it's too late to do anything to save the situation, to save my life and be happy once again.

I don't know.

One thing for sure, I won't give up now. Not yet. Why admit defeat so easily?

And I have this to motivate and remind me to smile more often:

My wrists have been giving me problems these days too. Two wrists one wrist guard. What can I do... The sandflies' stings on my legs are turning out very terribly. Conclusion: I have weak wrists and ugly legs. Hence two more reasons why smiling is so hard these days.

To all out there:

BE HAPPY!

Learn to take things easy

so that you won't end up like me.

Being happy is not easy

Being happy is not easy. Especially when the salt water flushed you all the way down to the bottom so quickly that you can't even see where the shore of happiness lies.

The tears welled up in your eyes so quickly that you can't even see the stars in the sky.

And all you want to do is just sit down, vent your frustrations and cry.

Yeah being happy is indeed not easy. Despite that it has been my ultimate goal in life all this while, there are times and moments like those of today that really put me down and left me with no place to experience the warmth of the earth.

It is that sad. I didn't know what to do. And when helplessness took over, I just treated silence as a solution. Without talking, no one can find fault with what I say. Without talking, I won't offend anyone, anything then feel guilty afterwards.

But the bad thing is that without talking, no one will know how I feel. It makes no point anyway. They may not even want to know. Neither would they understand even if they know.

The complexity of this world and the people living in it, including myself, really puzzles me.

And I finally got tired and all weary. Perhaps it's time for a break. Perhaps. Perhaps. Perhaps.

Can Doraemon give me some happiness pills so that I can be happy all over again? Or grant me a time machine to turn back time...

I just want to be happy.

China Studies test tomorrow, full paper. Haven't study yet. HOW?!?!?!

Have been doing CSC stuff for the past hour or so. They are like never-ending. And there're my other projects as well. Yunnan trip will be coming so soon. Then common test week then my Nanjing godsis will be coming to Singapore wheee!

I'm turning 17 in a week or so. But there's no birthday mood leh. JAYYES will not be able to come together as a whole to celebrate with me. It's ok I guess. Shall start looking out for some fun things to do on my birthday and for the time being, I shall spend my last days of sixteen meaningfully and of cos, HAPPILY!

Alright shall start studying for my test tomorrow.

Sandflies are just as irritating as mosquitoes! grr (random rant)

No matter where you are, no matter where I will be, as long as we lift our heads and look up, it's the same sky we are looking at (: <3

Back from Level Camp

Yoohoo! Back from level camp. Was too tired to blog last night. Level camp was great. Trekking rocks. Tough but fun (: Campfire can be further improved though.

Star-gazing on the last night. Aw wonderful. Saw shooting stars but didn't make any wishes. I didn't have any wishes in mind. And the shooting stars were long gone before you can cross my fingers and make a wish. But the feeling was great. With a blanket of stars over you. Whoa! But the ground made my hair itch the next day. hehe.

The camp was definitely enjoyable, and is a good break from the tough school days. But it's back to reality all over again, back to civilisation too. Actually I don't mind star-gazing every night and living without my laptop and handphone. Life seems alot simplier this way, and happier too(:

To live is to be happy, I have always believed so.

Hmm went for DCCL course just now. Received the certificate and gained a whole lot of ideas for my CIP project. whee wonderful.

Ohya! I caught Spiderman 3 with Li Wen the day before we left for Bintan. It rocks totally. Yeah. It's two hours and twenty minutes long but I didn't fall asleep at all! This is the first superhero movie which I truly enjoyed I must say. Superman Begins made me fall asleep. Batman Returns made me blur. Spiderman 3 made me happy =D The incorporation of the various themes in life. whoa. Meaningful and action-packed. I love it! Go watch it and I can tell you about my genius analysis. muhaha =p

Alright better get back to doing work. I haven't really started. Was busy doing the blogskin. Think it looks great. Stars (: The heavenly bodies which I always try to spot in Singapore. It's so rare locally that I find it abit unrealistic when the starry sky in Bintan laid over me. Miraculous. Yeah miracles do happen. One just did (: and more will come. I like stars that blink especially. They just make me feel so... happy.

And yay it's Mother's Day tomorrow. Gonna spend the day out with my mommy. Oh yeah gonna remember to sms my godmom in Nanjing too. hee.

Cheers. To live is to be happy. I can't emphasize enough :)

To Wen Jian and all those who are feeling sad/ in a terrible mood, CHEER UP! (:

Maths Test before Level Camp

My revision for the Maths test tomorrow is progressing... VERY SLOWLY. aw. help. I am so lag for all the graphing topics. In need of a miracle! ah (: But I will still work hard no matter what.

Came online to listen to some music to soothe my mood. Tuned in to the classical radio station on bbcnews.com. Not bad =D

After Maths test comes level camp. I am quite excited, to get away from all the tutorials and notes but there is some fear of the unknown within me. But I am definitely looking forward to the CIP and working with the kids.

The DCCL course at Singapore Association for the Deaf was great. Actually I knew what the course will be about, from Li Wen of cos. Took bus 12 to bugis after that, to get some stuff for level camp. I find it really intimidating to go to bugis all alone all weekends especially. It's like the crowds and all really give me the giddiness. It was the second time I went to bugis alone to get stuff and yeah same feelings experienced. Once I reached there and saw the crowds, the only thing on my mind is to get whatever was on my list then rushed back home, away from the town and all, into the comfort of my home. Yep I have learnt my lesson.

Alright back to my revision. It's not that great to slack with such a conscious mind. waha (: better utilize my brain cells on more constructive stuff like GRAPHING TECHNIQUES I =D

Is this me? I know not.

Stomach Flu and Fever

Didn't go to school today. It was quite hard deciding not to go school, especially since I will be missing out tons of tutorials today... like the Maths make-up tutorial which is more or less going to make a difference in my Maths test next week. Yeah but I still didn't go.

My fever was at an all high 38.3 degree celsius when I reached home last night. Drank a few mouthfuls of soup for dinner, took medication then slept through the night till this morning when my stomach still felt funny.

38.6 degree celsius in the noon. Went to see doctor at around late noon. Diagnosed stomach flu and prescribed some carbon compound for it and gave me two days MC. But I will be going to school tomorrow. Not to forget YY's birthday party after school.

I managed to complete the tutorial on Chemical Equilibria. I better get started on Maths. It's really hard concentrating with a weird stomach or rather intestines. The doc said that the germs had spread to the intestines. Oh gosh.

Anyway thanks to all those who told me to take care after learning that I am sick. Thanks lots. Your words make me feel motivated to get well soon. haha!

Whee I can't believe how much I miss school and spending time fooling around with JAYYES. And yay! Looking forward to school tomorrow (:

CYA ^^
