Dedicated to all the people I ever offended

If I had ever offended you, I hope you will not bear a grudge against me. Sometimes, just like everyone else, I would also get mad. Some of the symptoms are insulting the person, criticising him/her, and being totally unreasonable. If I had ever done this to you, I offer to you, my most sincere apologies. I didn't mean what I did at that time. I offer my most sincere apologies to Sarah, Zheng Young, Kai Cong and all the people I have ever offended.
First, I would like to beg forgiveness from Sarah. I did a mean thing, calling Sarah Satan's wife and her children (If she have any in the future) too stupid to be mention. I admit that I was rash and impulsive when doing that and am repentent for all the things I have done to offend her. It was foolishness on my part. I hope you will forgive me.
Next, Zheng Young is the person I would also like to apologise to. I had been to tally unreasonable when having an arguement. It wasn't your fault that Sarah had to see the video. It was me who kept ranting unreasonable lies about you. I'm sorry for whatever I said.
Finally, I would like to seek forgiveness from Kai Cong. How could I wrongfully accuse him of somthing that he did not do. I believe that you weren't the one who spammed my blog. For that, I expresse my innermost apologies.
All this happened in one day. I also learnt to be repentent for my mistakes on this day.

Another typical school day...

The day broke in bright and early and I woke up as if it was a typical day. Only my heart felt different. Somehow, I felt that it had learnt to be more understanding and mature. Is this how am I supposed to feel? For MRT riders, you should know that there is a reservoir between Kathib and Yio Chu Kang. Like all the other days, the dawn carried bright hues and it cascaded all over the skies. Looking at it always brought peace, understanding and hope. It was not different today. During assembly, however, was another thing altogether. We were taking our pledge when the Nicholas's (class enemy no1) handphone rang! Immediately students from all around turned their heads to look for the source of that sound. It was so loud! Even the teachers heard it! And for that, the whole class was given DC and Nicholas was also reprimanded by the DM. No one in the class took to that matter lying down. Despite Nicholas's apology, the whole class continued to hurl insults and scolded vulgarities at him. Not me. I just sat in a corner watching all that happening. In the end, Nicholas broke down into tearsand his face was as red as an tomato. Sensing that the situation was aggavated, Mrs Dan, the science teacher, immediately switched Nicholas's seat with Ting Ting (China Classmate) , mostly because it was Sarah who hurled the most insults. Then at the other end of the class, Johanna broke down. My theory was that of her being condemned to sit with Nichlas during all the classes except HMT............today was also the day where awards were given to those who dod well om the CA1, and also an analysis on the performance of the class. Sad to say is, that our class obtained the lowest grades for most of the subjects. However, some like Geography and English Literature, we ranked the top and was rightfully proud. Looking at my own set of disastrous results, I had better put in more effort too..........

My grandfather passed away...

They said that the life is like a cycle. The old must let way for the young. That I believed, was true.
It all began during the evening. When we received a call from Hong Kong, I knew something was amiss. I was right. My grandfather was in coma. Immediately, my father was alerted and he told my mother to book him an air ticket to Hong Kong. My father, being the youngest son in his family, was naturally attached to his father. My mother did so without any hesitation. I was also informed to that piece of news, and silently, I wished my grandfather would escape this ordeal unscathed. But little did anyone know that my grandfather was already breathing the last breaths of his life. After dinner, I watched the new drama serial but yet, my mind was still on that subject. Will mygrandfather be alright? My prayers were not answered. My grandfather breathed his last breath while I was watching a completely boring drama serial.
Of the topics I want to talk about today, is of life and death. A fact is, everyone will die one day. It's just a matter of time before you pass away. It may be a couple minutes from now or perhaps half a century later, you'll never know. Also another point, is acceptance. You cannot revive a person who is already dead, but what you can do is to accept. Acceptance is the key to get over a loved one's death. It may be hard, but think. Accepting that this loved one is already dead and that you must get on with life is the only solution. I didn't say you must forget everything that you have to do with him. I'm just saying that it would be better acknowledge the death of someone than to mourn over it for ages. Next, is to cherish. Look at the people around you. What if they died suddenly? Are you going to regret forever? So, cherish your love ones while they are alive. Don't await until they are dead and start regretting why you did not do a partcular thing or told that person something before he passed away. Make them fill appreciated. Remember, Live life to the fullest!

I was chosen as a student councillor!!!!

Oh my god!!! How is that possible?! Argh............so now that I have the application form, I'm going to fill it up right away....after all.......do you know how I got the form.......this is how it goes....
The atmosphere was tense. Everyone was quiet as Mrs Kumar (form teacher) handed out the forms. For after all, only two people would be chosen although half the class raised their hands for they know the importance of this post. I also raised my hand......for this post (would be the highest honour above all). The two people who received the forms are girls...come to think of it.......and they received the forms, proud and dignified, I watch them with awe, but also with grief. Above all, dashed hopes always brought about the greatest of sorrows. I sat on my chair, my eyes burning with tearsand rage, (not true, added it to make it look nicer!) and in my mind, I was hurling all sorts of insults and vulgarities at her. My mind was clouded with this issue and I was not paying attention to whatever Mrs Kumar said on the 'election of the chaiman issue'. Directly after school, I rushed to the canteen.......
Food is always essential in fighting a 'war'. Especially this one. I didn't have time to eat reccess so as soon as I rushed down, I ordered a plate of chicken sphagetti (don't know how to spell)and wolfed down it asap. Lucky I know Mrs Kumar is eating her lunch in the library and I waited patiently for her outside. As soon as she rushed out, I hurried next to her and shot out whatever I want to say to her. After thinking for quite long, she relented to my constant blabbing and handed me the form, saying that that is because if sarah and my patience towards her (look at post March20 to find out more....).
Do you think I have very good patience? If you think so.....or disagree, please tell me why and give me a reason! Thanks!

Another day...(complains and praises)

How do you start a Saturday morning? Waking up at noon? Playing maple while your parents sre sleeping? Or just get up early and exercise? hehe.....I start mine by waking up at seven and rushing to the bus-stop. Reason: To go shopping with my aunt, uncle and sisters! Arghhhh! So much time wasted! Nvm about that.......let me tell you about the praises and complains about the trip.
Praises: The lunch at Ikea (Tampines) was delicious! Even the Ice Lemon Tea tasted refreshing! I ate a Chicken Chop Set and I must tell you that that is one of the best meals I ever had! The chicken was succelent and simply mouth-watering! The rice had a pleasent fragrance and the vegetables had a fresh scent to it! For dessert, we each had an ice-cream(half price during children's week!) and it just melted in my mouth. (literally and metaphorically) All for the best lunch ever eaten!
Complains: It started from Giant (Tampines) and also ended there. As you know people from all walks of life gather there for the best deals and bargains. From old ladies to off-duty managers, the whole place was crowded! I was there as I was interested to buy a Sandisk 1GB Thumbdrive. But lo and behold, by time I was there it was sold out! Only the expensive stuff were left us to choose from! My heart simply broke and I remained listless throughout the entire time when the rest were searching for the things that were in their shopping lists. The other things was that the people there are so RUDE! They bumped into me and without a word of APOLOGY, they shove their way through the crowd! Singaporeans are just the LIMIT nowadays!
That's all I have to say........lets hope for more praises the next time.......

Very tiring...(all complains)

There was choir practice, undone-homwork-that-must-be-handed-in-by-today, noisy and not homework-friendly enviroment (my class) and last but not least, insufficient sleep. So much stress is driving me to the wall! How I wish I was back in primary school where life is so much easier....haix...need to do well for everything since my CA1 results were disastrous.........my mum's going to kill me if I don't do well this time.......and als got the TEENAGE WRITING COMPETITION where we must report the happenings in an event (real one) and stay there for the whole day (outside plaza singpura in the hot hot sun....) I didn't stay there for the whole day.....LOL.......and now, have to make up stuff that didn't exist........also have to work with a conceited girl.....alethia.......she is so cocky! As for my undone homework, I had to spend 2 hours finishing everything and handing them in to teacher at the end of the day........have to miss 'deathnote' to do all that! Then the class sounds worse than a fishmarket and the vice-principal went into our class and 'warned' us........I was blaring rock songs when she came in! As for choir practice, I (everbody also) have to stand up for 2 hours and sing the same old score over and over again.......by the time that ended, my legs had gone all wobbly and i was developing a sore-throat....so much for 'the least stressful cca of all'! Haix......I will stop jotting down my complains now.....I'll continue with it some other day....

Unlucky. Unlucky. Unlucky.

This is life. You go through many obstacles and improve yourself on being wiser and more understanding of the ways of the world. However, there is one obstacle that is uncontrallable and that is , LUCK. And fact is I have been so UNLUCKY for the past few days that I wonder if I could get even more UNLUCKY.
Take first day of Term 2 for example, I wasn't able to change seats since no one wanted to sit next to the most hot-tempered girl in class! Lets just call this girl Sarah. Sarah has the worst character you would ever come accross in your life. If you dare touch her seat, she would scream at you in her 'voice-break' voice to get lost such that the whole class would be able to hear the shrill in her scoldings. Not only that, she also 'explode' everytime you say something about her, she'll call you a moron or an idiot and calls you to get lost! Sarah would also send beatings everywhere. I was one of the casualties and the worst-hit at that!
Next, there was my D&T project. Spending sessions on just buffing your acrylic was not easy, and in the end my whole acylic SNAPPED APART! I had glued it together with the main piece and handled it with care but Heaven just seems to have something against me! In the end, I just have to bring back all the pieces home and bring back the acrylic on the next D&T lesson. How frustrating! There are also some less significant UNLUCKY stuff and I won't talk about it. It just makes me mad to know how UNLUCKY I am..........

The end of 6A 2006 era

It all seemed so strange............term 1 had just gone by and yet I seemed to think that we SPS friends were as close as we were in primary school..........now its diferent, with all of us going in different directions like the dandelion seeds, floating all over the place. And with the march holidays starting, I could imagine many of us planning gatherings and hoping that your effort will not go down the drain.............yet the spirit of Class 6A 2006 is almost extinguished. You could feel it from within. Perhaps only wisps of it are left, which belong to those who are the closest of friends. Despite not being to pass paper messages to each other or secretly confiding to each other about the happenings of their everyday lives, there is still a lingering strand of friendship. For those that don't believe the extingishment of The Spirit, they are probably deluded. The memories do live, in our hearts. Deep inside, you just wished that someone would plan a gathering. But pragmatism eventually triumphs over impossible hopes. In the end, you would most probably keep all the contacts of your primary school friends but most of them would most probably end up as a 'white elephant'. The rest which are the contacts of your most valued friends, would be kept and treasured , and perhaps with luck, used frequently. I could only hope that everone would not succumb to a broken friendship due to being apart. True friends will live in our hearts forever!

The test results were devastating............I found out that my overall marks for both Chinese and Science had just scraped a pass grade. It wasn't enough. I would work harder next time. As for English and Mathematics, I got a B3 at 69 marks each!!! Just 1 more mark each to attain an A2!!! Somehow, I was actually more depressed for my English and Math marks rather than my Chinese and Science. As for Geography and History, I did unexectedly well for both and was hoping to get an A1 or A2, even though I felt that I was yet to get another B3............I don't want to be that UNLUCKY!!! At least not 69!!! There is still a reassuring fact that I wish that it would never change. I have yet to fail a subject.

3.3km cross-country race!

There was pain. Everywhere. From the massive headache to the aching legs. I knew I had to go on. Summoning every ounce of strength I had, I pushed myself through the finish line and made it! I was now top-twenty for the Sec 1 boys category! I made my way back to the meeting square and panted with my tongue sticking out like a dog. I took out my water bottle and drank it to the last drop. However, it was not being top-twenty that gave me much fulfilment. It was defeating Pearleen for once in my life! I remembered her skin shimmering with sweat and her shirt drenched. She made it to 3rd position for girls while I took the place for 16th position for boys. That shows how good the boys are! We were soon discussing about the race and this is what she told me: I'll make sure I defeat you next time! My response: We'll see......... But there was no look of jealousy in her face but only euphoria and perhaps a tinge of envy. Good sportsmanship. No matter, there was a 16th position engraved on the trophy; I thoght that it was only a top-twenty engraved on it. Shortly after, I was zooming off in a taxi with a bronze trophy in my hands!

Tagging Game

This is what you are supposed to cut and paste if you decide to participate in the tagging game.Each player of this game starts off by giving 6 weird things about themselves. People who get tagged need to write in a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state the rules clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. After you do that, leave them each a comment letting them know you tagged them and to read your blog. Livia forced me!!!

1. I love homework. Any type......................except Chinese!
2. Unlike every boy I know, I like shopping! It's lots of legwork and satisfaction!
3. I drool in my sleep. You may find this discusting but its true.............

As for the six people I want to tag.............Kai Cong, Shi Hui, Alicia, Janelle, Kai Ying aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand Jasmine!!!! I do hope you will be able to do it!

Every cloud has a silver lining

After struggling in the complete darkness for so long, a boy was about to give up. But suddenly, a light shone in the dark and the boy followed the light, back to the joy of life. That boy was me. I did better than half my class for Chinese History and came out third in Geography. But for all irony of things, I failed yet still I did better than half the class in Chinese History and the fact remains that I got 33/35 for Geographyand came out third, meaning..................that the best in my class got full marks! Anyway, the IPW lesson is the most hated lesson of all and I still had to resort to copying my friends' homework! There was last minute filing and much chaos in the class even after school and I had to stay till 3pm to complete everything. My silver lining is definitely here!
