New Phone!

Monday, August 31, 2009
Secret War Journal[31 August 2009]
Wohoo! I got a new phone at last! The previous one was spoilt. (and had poor functions after mother traded with uncle..:o Hahas)

New Phone Model: SGH-F400

It's a music-player phone. :D
Somehow, I got a feeling this is only a temporary phone...:o But who cares. I shall enjoy it while it last. >=D

Tested the music, not bad quality. :D
Only problem with this phone is that I can't disable Internet. Ahh! Need to be careful or else parents would kill for bursting the phone bills. :p

Quality of Camera should be acceptable. Let your eyes be the judge:
New Phone!!

From Left: Leo, Lera, Leroy
New Phone!

From Left: Leo, Lera, Leroy

P.S: Yes, the background is the kitchen..Hahas...

Erm..wait, uh-oh, where's my contacts?!!!! Oh great....

Update: Someone asked for the picture of the phone so...

I provide a video instead...


And of course, the official walk-through cum Showcase!

Visits to Grandmother

Sunday, August 30, 2009
Secret War Journal[30 August 2009]
Perhaps I should backtrack a little bit, back to 29 August 2009...
--
Refer to Leroy's Secret War Journals: 27, Day of Geography Exam for some background information. ;)
--
Right! After posting the post yesterday, Lera and I went to our Grandmother's House. We went with my aunt and uncle because my Parents are busy tending the shop. :D

Before going to grandmother's house(because it's still kind of early), we went to our aunt's house. That's where I did my Physics Paper.
Alas, there were distractions, my speed of answering a MCQ Question is 1 per hour. (Yes, that's extremely slow)
So what distractions were there? No, I assure I did not use computer.(Or else my speed of answering would be even slower..:p Hahas)
Well, for starter's I watched a movie(halfway) and watched TV dramas. Hee...

After a while, Tze Yui and I went down to collect the flyers which my aunt will be distributing in a few day's time(okay that's tomorrow)
Unlike last time, I'm not helping her with the flyers(except carrying one or two boxes of flyers to her house...) because of my "O" Levels Examination. Haizz..that examination cost me some income opportunities!!!(LOLS!!!)

Okay, before I go nuts from the lost of profits, I want to tell you guys something. Actually, I'm supposed to be the only one going down to bring up the flyers but I sabo-ed Tze Yui to 'accompany' me. Hhaas!
(*Evil Laugh*)

To Tze Yu: It wasn't so bad right? Hahas. Guess not. Hahahas....

You know what the best part is? Tze Yui is still in school uniform(opps?) and for some funny reason she doesn't want to be seen wearing school uniform(I think I know why...but double opps? Hahahs...)

Okay, I'm getting a bit evil. Time to fast forward...

Yuki went for Violin lessons today. So Cool! (Okay that was random...)
(NOTE: Tze Yui eats dried Cuttlefish at a very fast rate...*Screams*..lols)
--
Anyway, on our way to Grandmother's house,  I found out another thing - Never let Lera eat Tic Tac Orange. She goes super HIGH. God knows why.(Maybe too much sugar content)

"Tic Tac's bad for health" - Yuki

Lols...
Well, for starters, Lera starts being extremely random. (it's like woah, what the...)
Then she starts to scream for seemingly no reason...
Followed by a 'catfight' with Tze Yui (hahas, third opps?)

I sort of ended the 'fun'. It's getting to noisy for my liking. Then Lera starts to throw tantrums, specifically at me,...

Oh well, at least the madness ended.
--
At grandmother's house, I had Roast duck, chicken and many food! Not to mention the drinks... Mmm!
Simin and family came as well. O.o. So did Qi Xian!
(I shall not elaborate, it's way too private. ;)

But I will say this, Qi Xian gone a lot thinner! Oh my god! We're, yes I think it was everyone ;), all shocked. It's been weeks, maybe months, since we last saw him.

Wow...Hahas...Then Simin's father was like asking Qi Xian: "Qi Xian, what's the secret behind slimming down?" (Translated roughly into english)

Hahas, not that I really care. (Because I'm not fat. Wohoo! Lols, just finding this opportunity to praise myself..hahas)

P.S: Is bony shoulders bad to lie on? Hmm..guess not..

Going back to 30 August 2009(yes, I'm skipping here and there because I'm running out of time)

Hungry Ghost Festival
(7th Month of Lunar Calender)
Woke up early in the morning to prepare for the trip to pay our respects to my late grandfather and mother.

Revised on Physics: Transfer of Thermal Energy while parents were tidying up the goods to be put on sale in the shop.

That's pretty much the reason we were late. You see, we're supposed to go to Grandmother's house to bring her to the temple at 10:30AM but we only left our house AT 10:30 AM. Oh dear..

Well, no real damage was done. Phew..
--
Rain..Haiz..rain complicates stuff during such events... In addition to coming out with lots of bags to carry, you would need to hold an umbrella.
Anyway, I did not bother to use an umbrella(lazy to). Hope I don't catch a cold. :o

Unexpectedly, the temple is crowded. (Silly me, everyone's coming for the same reason as me)

Rain...crowd, what did I miss? :o

林金食
美泠
Forever Missed...

To my grandfather who could speak english. (:D So pro right?)
To my mother who had been very dear to me...
--
Ate lunch in the temple. (They no longer charge us $2...)

My father 'abandoned' me halfway. Zzzz...
He gave me two choices - Either take MRT home with Lera or hitch a ride with Qi Xian's Parents. Being lazy, I obviously chose to tag along with Qi Xian. Ha!

(Wonder why Simin's Father was laughing secretly at me...*Scratch Heard*)

Okay, so this is first time in Qi Xian's Parents' Car, I like their radio. Looks so cool! They have a GPS Navigator too. Woot! So stylish right? Hahas...

I can describe their atmosphere when they were bring Lera and I home in one word: Excited. LOL...

They accidentally took a wrong turn and thus activated the GPS navigator(and that's when the COOL part started) hahas.

It has the same voice as Bao Lin's sister's GPS Navigator.. O.o (Maybe the voices are copied many times over. Hahas)

Got home and did Chinese Composition, which is kind of overdue...before coming to blog. >=D

God! I swear, I skimmed through so many parts that I can't believe that I have actually related the entire day out! I'm sorry if you don't exactly understand(maybe because I cut out the personal parts. :D opps?). But yeah, like I said, I'm kind of in a rush so without further ado, bye bye and until next time! ;)

P.S: Thanks Grandmother for the Tau Sa Bing! Hee...And did I mention that one of my joss stick just cannot light up after numerous times??? Well it did, after much attempts....

27, Day of Geography Exam

Saturday, August 29, 2009
Secret War Journal[29 August 2009]
Weekends! Ahh! Really miss them. I'm kind of in a rush right now, so expect this post to be rather short(or rushed).

Geography Papers
Well, it seems that my mugging focused too much on Human Aspect of Geography and too little on the Physical Aspect of  Geography.

Result? Both papers could not be completed. Haiz...

The first paper was on the Physcial Aspect of Geography. It was very demoralising for me because I did not study much on them.
On the other hand, the second paper, which was on Human Aspect of Geography, I was able to answer. Heck, I know the content, the examples, the evaluations, but I had insufficient time. Guess I wrote too much. Zzzz..

So yeah, Geography is now officially wasted for Prelim 3. Wohoo! Geez...
English Papers
Paper 1 was unique in the sense that the situational writing requires us to boast(in a way...) about our strengths and achievements.

The situational writing is about an application to some scholarship. (That's all I'm gonna see without revealing too much. :p)

My main worry for that section would be that I'm afraid the markers thinks mine is too cocky. (LOLS...) Hope not.

For the essay section, I wrote on the theme: Weight. For this, I wrote on imaginary weight(For example, burden, responsibilities, commitments)
Hopefully, I am able to get across the idea to the marker and would not go out of point. ;)

Paper 2 was difficult. The passage was not hard to understand but the questions were a challenge to answer. This paper is as difficult as Prelim 2, if not harder.

Next up would be my Additional Mathematics but before that, there's Teacher's Day!
(no worries, there will be a post about that in a few days)

Alright, have to go prepare going out now and revise, of course.

Pendragon: Soldiers of Halla

Friday, August 28, 2009
Secret War Journal[28 August 2009]


Description

It has all been leading to this. Every victory. Every loss. All the thrills and sadness; the hope and despair. Bobby Pendragon's heart-pounding journey through time and space has brought him to this epic moment. He and his fellow Travellers must join forces for one last desperate battle against Saint Dane. At stake is not only the tenth and final territory, but all that ever was or will be. Everywhere.

This is the war for Halla.

Every question is answered. Every truth is revealed.

The final battle has begun.


Personal Views
Wohoo! An epic conclusion to the adventures of Bobby Pendragon! For those who had read one book or just have been following closely with the series, this is a must-read! Like the book states, all the questions are answered! Finally, it's good to know everything and the reason to why such an event occur in the very first place.


[Spoiler Alert!]
It's sad that Bobby and Loor were not together in the end. I was rooting for them. Darn. Hahas.



Note: I will be posting about the papers I took perhaps tomorrow...

Numb my Soul

Wednesday, August 26, 2009
Secret War Journal[26 August 2009]

Let's face it, I'm no Rand Al'Thor. I can't steel myself(which is probably a good thing.)

So I will try another approach. I'm going to stuff my myself, overwhelming myself with loads of work. Be it studies or personal work. I figure it's better than not being numb from other emotions(which I will be screaming in agony at school every single day until after "O" Levels Examinations)

So I hope you guys don't take it the wrong way when my face has a an indifferent look. :p

Card Writing Session@Skool
Right, it's been some time since I last talked about my class.

Today, we had PC(Pastoral Care) Lessons and it was rather strange(though unique).

We're suppose to write a card to encourage(or compliment) a random classmate in our class. This is done by balloting.

Shortly after the balloting session started, Ms Tan discovered that one lot(which meant a classmate) was not included in the balloting. Hahas.

So, the balloting restarted, with that missing lot included, of course. Kind of wonder why no one find this amusing, Ms Tan was more concerned about hurting a classmate's feelings that he or she was not included in it. Well, for this case, I don't think anyone would mind. No very serious to the point of discrimination so no damage done. (I guess)

Hey, I'm an naive kid. ;)

Anyway, Ying Ying got chosen to write the card to me:
Card of Goodwill
Okay...so Ying Ying used this opportunity to praise herself too.(god, she's thick-skinned)

And I don't see how being Geek is an compliment(in her sense...)...Oh well...

Well, at least it sounds positive(this coming from her, wow! I mean I half-thought she would insulting me geek all the way. Hahas. Opps?). I mean yeah, it's good to feel appreciated. Thanks.

I don't understand why she had to hold back on the good wishes on Maths and Sciences!
(what's with the misconception that I'm good at those subjects???!!!) =.=
Yeah, I really need it for Chinese. Hahas. :p (thanks)

O.o...Oooo..I like the mouse-becoming-Kangaroo part. Novel. It's hilarious. That made my day... Hahas...

Overall, a thank you to you(to Ying Ying).
Okay, after saying that out loud, I realised how strange that sounded but it's the thought that counts, right?

Update on the day before Start of Prelim 3
I'm about two-thirds done for my mugging(yes, I'm not considering it as revision)  for Geography. Tomorrow's the day. I'm left with err..roughly 2 hours to mug before the Prelims officially starts.

Which would be roughly the time the dices start spinning...

Price of Success

Tuesday, August 25, 2009
Secret War Journal[25 August 2009]

Let's be frank. I had actually planned to screw up for Prelim 2. Yes, bad of me but at least hear me out first. The problem of getting too high a grade(especially that of Prelim One) so early before the main(and important) examination, which would be the "O" Levels Examinations, would cause complacency. So I figured after I should not score as well for Prelim  2 so as to use that as lasting warning that I should not slack and work hard for Prelim 3 and of course, ultimately "O" Levels Examinations.

Well, looking back(at the results). I would say the first phase plan went well. Too well. The warning hit me so hard that I had actually thought of giving up and lift my hand up helplessly. So hard that I felt there was no meaning in continuing the fight.

No, this is the moment. The moment to strike back(I hope). Have to. Must. I need to persevere.  The next phase of Plan is about to begin. It's either a complete success or complete failure. A morale boost or a lasting defeat. It's time to reset the Chess Board, time to take back what was taken. It's time.

Of course, Prelim 3 would be the penultimate indicator of how successful my plan is. So only time will tell.

Meanwhile, I need words of Encouragement, not words of insult(which THEY're good at. =.=. Okay, there are exceptions...)
Boy, I miss my primary six class. Oh well, guess I'm on my one for this battle.
On the side tone, I'm halfway prepared for Geography with a crash course tomorrow. I have revised for the other subjects. Most of them anyway, for some reason I seems to have missed out Geography in my Revision Plan(a blunder, yes)

Hmm..Enough time to salvage the damage from this abnormal leaving out of one subject, I guess. Tomorrow would require major memory work. (*Battle Cry*)

Talk about thirst of revenge.  
Talk about restoring pride.
Talk about Stress. 

Grr...

P.S: Notice that I started to post on the daily basis again? Yeah, only for the moment. I need a platform to distress since I decided to stop gaming.(yes, it's about time). I need a platform to organise my thoughts. Where else but a journal? Hahas.

Anyway, I reverting back to my "Moral Mirror" Policy. I really see no point in giving people words of goodwill and encouragement when they never every offer once to me. Of course, as part of the policy, I will still give those to those who always had given me a helping hand. ;) Don't worry guys, I had never forgotten the help you offered me! :D

P.P.S: Hahas, and thanks to Hai Jin for your words of encouragement in the past. ;)

Hobey ho! And so we go!

Post-Oral

Monday, August 24, 2009
Secret War Journal[24 August 2009]
Oral Skills Reloaded
Even though my "O" Levels English Language Oral Examination are over, I've found use for the knowledge learnt from Ms Tan's lessons.

I'm teaching them to Lera. Well, sort of. Hahas. Of course, she can't grasp the meaning of consonant endings yet but it think it helps.

She can read one entire book with minimal errors now! I'm so proud of her! I taught her to pause between commas too(and she is applying it, unless it's just coincidental that she's out of breath after every comma...:o)

I took care to praise her, hope she's motivated to continue the good effort! ;D
P.S: Leo's riding on as well, though I think Lera went a bit too fast for him to learn...

I'm amazed at children's memory. They're so good at remembering stuffs. Envious, yeah.

Sad to say, she got scolded by Dad later at night. She's kind of addicted to Television now, you see.

Counting down to my Prelim 3, roughly 3 days left to Prelim 3. Some would be wondering why I'm even online...

Can I say I'm stressed? Probably not, I doubt anyone would even believe that.

Lastly, I think Ms Tan's got an impression that I'm very talkative.(which is probably true..Hahas)

:o

Don't let her know that I said that! That will only confirm her impression!(whatever that means) Hahas!

Alright! I'm about to be off and continue my studies. Just for an update, I finally officially started on my Geography Revision(like finally?) which is 3 days away. A bit last minute but I'm like that. (Opps?)

I skimmed through Tourism and read through Industry. Hope that helped.

You know what this means? I did not follow my study plan(which was requested by the school) again. Oh well...Live and let learn...

Errata
My father made a mistake in the end, my younger sister did not miss her orientation day. It's actually on 21 Novmember 2009. Talk about Panic for a wrong cause...

A New Beginning

Sunday, August 23, 2009
Secret War Journal[23 August 2009] [2nd Post]

I'm thinking of this for some time and I'm glad I did it. Yeah. this also means that the Secret War Journals of mine isn't so "Secret" anymore. Hahas.

For starter's, I would like to clarify that I would not regret this move, in fact, I'm enjoying every moment of it right now. Tells you how long since I touched coding, huh?

Just joking! To be frank with you, the posts at the previous place was getting too stuffy and I figure I should just split them up into two. Hahas!

On the bright side, I can finally use the Tags system in Blogger for my Secret War Journals(at last!) LOLS.

And yeah, this is my first public post. Hell nervous, hahas. I'm not sure why myself either. Hahas.


Lastly, some of you guys may be wondering why I call these my Secret War Journals and not Secret War Diary. Let's just say I'm had intended to go public with these posts(with more and more people knowing where to find it, of course ;) and Diary is meant for my own eyes only. So Journals seems more appropriate.

Okay, I typed so much today, I swear, my fingers are breaking!

Today's post had already been posted, look it up in the archives or click Older Posts. I decided to still show one post per page(the posts are long, remember? Hahas)

Hope this isn't as lag as before, I did not move everything here. Hahas ;)

Happy reading!

Update: Oh, I'm kind of lazy to link people, but if you wish me to link your blog, please do say so, I will oblige and act on it upon reading it. ;)

2nd Update: Surprisingly, for someone who loads the webpage from the previous area and this new website, the previous one load faster by 3%. O.o But to me, this new webpage loads faster. Wonder why...

Secret War Journal [23 August 2009]

Wa...I sort of predict this is going to be a long post.. Brace yourselves! ;)

NCHS Prelims 2 Pt3 [2009]
This will be the final time I will be talking about this, I mean ain't you guys bored of talking the same old topic for the past three posts?!

Since some people are curious about the details, so I will oblige with this picture which will explain on behalf of me. :D
NCHS Prelims 3 Results

English Oral
Okay, back on track. First things first, my "O" Levels English Language Oral Examination.

One word, Horrible.

Elaborate? I screwed up.

At least I feel I did. LOL. I really hate being the first few students to take the oral Examination(mine was on the very First day, =.=)

Some people said the topic on that day was the easiest so far. I, on the other hand, think not. It's so difficult, so uniquely special that I totally had a shock.

Talk about oral blues...Brr...

Before you start screaming at me for not telling you what the topic was(please don't scream), I will share with you guys. ;)

Topic: Holiday/Shopping

Sounds easy? Think again.

Question 1: Tell me about a far-off place you've been to or a place you want to go.
Question 2: How do you like to shop?

Question one was manageable slight because I sort of overheard the question when I was in the waiting area which in turn allow me time to prepare for this question. Quite a number of us overheard too, talk about flaws of having an oral examination in an enclosed area.

Question two was in every way twisted beyond comprehension. The addition of the word "How" adds depth and bring complications. I got a feeling I did not even answered their question. (Which is probably why I think I screwed up...)

On top of that, our examiners on that day was horrible. Luckily for me, this incident happened after I left the exam hall.

As told by Angeline...[Adapted]
For starter's, we have two examiners who are invigilating us(try to imagine...). On the left was a woman, and on the right a man.
Halfway while Angeline was answering the question, the man dozed off. (Yes, appealing)
Shocked, Angeline stood up and rose her voice, (subtly, of course) so as to 'indirectly' wake the man up. The man, of course, woke up and smiled back to her. (Daring)
From the looks of it, the man sounds indifferent. O.o

Another incident, as told by Christopher and many others [Adapted]
There were rumours about another pair of examiners that day, that one of them muttered a swear word.
And many agreed and witnessed that on one occasion after a student finished his/her oral, the woman(the same) sprinted off. Some said that she was heading for a loo.(reasonable) while others say she couldn't stand it anymore(which is not so reliable)
What angered me was not the fact that the man(the one who slept) dared to sleep but the fact that he did not even made an attempt to stay awake. I don't mind yawning(it helps the brain) because that's hard to contain but sleep? There's so many ways to stay awake. Drinking coffee or tea, for starter's and those WERE provided.

Tsk Tsk...

"O" Levels Chinese Language Results
Wohoo!

Okay, don't get the wrong idea, I did not get A1 or A2 but I'm happy all the same!

I reached my goal! B3!

Wohoo!!

Sadly, my school is forcing me to re-take at the end of this year. (Spoilsport)

Friends' Results:
  1. Christopher Lim -- A2(D)
  2. Christopher Widjaya -- C6
  3. Cynthia -- B3(D)
  4. Donavan -- B3(D)
  5. Demond -- A1(M)
  6. Hai Jin -- A1
  7. Jia Xing -- C6
  8. Jie Sheng -- B4(P)
  9. Jing Ting -- B3(D)
  10. Johnston -- C6(P)
  11. Ker Shiun -- B3
  12. Marcus -- B3(M)
  13. Me -- B3(M)
  14. Pei Si -- A1
  15. Pei Wen -- A1
  16. Sherman -- A1
  17. Siew Yan -- A1
  18. Wei Siang -- B2(M)
  19. Ying Ying -- A1
Yeah, just some random people because I'm lazy to ask the rest.

In case you're wondering, those little letters next to the grades are the Paper 3 grades.
(P) = Pass
(M) = Merit
(D) = Distinction

Note: Paper 3 cannot only be taken once, hence these grades are pretty much permanent and hence so important in your decision in whether you wish to re-take at the end of the year.

Congrats to those who got A1 (which is half of my class!) :D

Checking of SGC
If I'm not wrong, SGC means Singapore Graduation Certificate. This certificate is awarded to you when you graduate from Secondary School. The graduating classes were asked to check for errors, during this week, in the Draft Version of the SGC so that our SGC would be nice and perfect when we officially receive it. :D

Here's how it looks like:
Cover Page of SGC
This is the cover page, some information has been removed due to privacy. ;)

The next page would be a blank page, followed by your "O" Levels Result.

Moving on, the following page would be your CCA Achievements and your CCA Grades.

The following picture is also not finalised(Because I'm still aiming for A1! Hahas!)
SGC [CCA Records]

Finally, this last page will be written by your teachers who assessed you and write a testimonial of your qualities, which may be useful when you want to enter certain schools. ;)
SGC [Personal Qualities]

Revisit: Primary One Registration
At the request of my cousin, I'm coming back to this topic for an update!

It has been confirmed not more than 2 days ago that my younger sister is successful in applying for Anchor Green Primary School!

But my family was too overjoyed to miss something - The orientation day, which was 3 days ago...

Yep, so we totally missed it, now the burning question is: Is my younger sister still successful in applying into that primary school? Guess we'll only find out when Monday comes...

Now we need divine intervention.

Overreaction
This hilarious incident happened today!

As told from my dad...[Adapted]
Today, my father dropped my Mother at the MRT Interchange at the dropping area so that my Mother can go to work. As my father wants to leave, he reverses and hit someone's car door.
(as to whether to the car door was already open or not is in doubt)
The driver, whose car was hit, came out and demand compensation from my dad. Thinking that the damage was severe, my father went out to take a look and assess the damage. To his amazement, it was hardly a scratch(if you can even consider that a scratch)
Damage? A tiny speck of paint from MY DAD's car was rubbed on to the other party's WHITE car. Now then, the white car's stained. Sounds serious, huh? My father went to rub on it, and the paint disappeared, or should I say flaked off.

Continuing the tale, the driver was pissed and demanded to claim from my father to have his car fixed(which was pretty much fixed by my father's handing rubbing off the paint...)

Obviously, this was too minor a damage to use insurance claim to repair. Hence, my father offered money as compensation instead and asked how much was the driver needs to fix it(LOL.)

To my father's horror, the driver demanded SGD 50 for the repair. (!!! Day-light Robbery!)
Luckily, my father refused and went off. The driver tailed my father back home(sounds like stalking to me...)

That's when I laughed. I mean, he actually chased my dad for such a trivial thing. LOLS!

When my father left the car, the driver called my dad to stop and give him my dad's IC. The driver said that my father was being ungentlemanly because he hit-and-run and all that stuff.

My father left him to his own devices and returned home.
You know, I got a feeling that the driver was using this opportunity to get money from my dad. With the context of recession now, who knows what people are capable of? But this is a first, demanding $50 for a paint-plating for such a small area. WOW. Just plain wow.

Worse, the driver's car was parked illegally, yet he had the cheek to demand compensation when my father was just dropping my mother for work. (I mean duh, that's a drop-off point?)

LOL. Recession makes people do funny things.

Phew! Long, isn't it? I even cut off some parts of my dad's story to make it shorter! For example, there was a mediator(an old man) who tried to resolve the commotion.

Well, next week would be my Prelims 3. another trial, another period of boredom. Until next week then...

Secret War Journal[16 August 2009]

Sunday, August 16, 2009
Alright! Welcome back! Time really passes when you're busy.(Now, have I said that before? Hmm..)

First up is a event that occurred yesterday...
Extraordinary Lift Encounter!
Yep, it's the lift thingy again. But while the prior encounter touches on spookiness, this encounter is plain cool! (for me, that is)

This time, it involved the lift on the left! Here goes...

I was with my younger sister and I pressed the Lift Button as we're going down for lunch. (As in eating out.)
One lift was on Maintenance. What's surprising is that, it's that lift that came down for us...

I was like, "is this some sick joke"?

Before I jumped into conclusion, I looked at the other lift. It was not moving.

Oh great, why me?

When the lift arrived, I was expecting some lift repair workers inside, but it was empty.

Remember I said it was not spooky? Scratch that.

Nevertheless, I had no other options, we went in.
Obviously, my younger sister looks indifferent, she has no idea what's going on. Now could she?

It was a risk that could well end my life. But it was cool to be in a lift in maintenance, and it's lifting you too!
How cool is that? I mean, not many people ever could experience that.

I'm so proud I experienced that and nothing bad happened to us. ;)

Like I said, plain cool!

Prelims 2 Marks Pt2
Like I promised in the prior post, I'm going to share with you my pathetic results for Prelims 2.

  • L1R4 -> Same as Prelims 1 L1R5; 11
  • L1R5 -> 15
  • Poorest Subject -> Chemistry
  • Best Subject -> Probably E.Maths
  • Overall %(For best 7) -> 70%
Okay, on the bright side, the overall percentage wasn't so bad. I don't really want to comment on the results but yeah, in case you're wondering, I'm definitely not the third in class anymore.
I mean, if I get third, that would just mean that my class is really lousy, (which I hope isn't, duh?)

Anyway, it just means that I have to work harder for Prelims 3! Right!

National Day@9 August 2009
National Day for me this year is kind of boring.

But here's a memorable experience: The pledge Moment

And I'm proud to say that my family and I participated in it, even though my younger brother only joined in the middle of pledge.

But it felt so awkward, reciting the pledge at home. I think it's because my family never recited the pledged as one family before. So it felt...so strange.

And I totally missed the aircraft performance. What a pity.

Despite that, we had durians on that day. Mmm! It had been some time since I 'mass eat' durians. :D

Primary One Registration 2009
Next year, my younger Sister would be going to a Primary School to start her first formal education.
Unfortunately, since we're new to Sengkang, the process is rather messed up.

For starter's, we wanted her to enter the Nearest(and the best around here) primary school, which was Nan Chiau Primary School. Sadly, due to overwhelming response, the places were left to luck...through balloting. Obviously, my younger sister did not qualify for a place there.

Next up, we applied for Anchor Green Primary School(never heard of this school until two days ago).
As of yesterday, there were overwhelming applies for that school too. Shocking, yes. It's all left to fate once more, whether my younger sister enters that school will be up to god's will. I have no comments on that matter.

Opps, I ran out of time. But rest assured, next week I'll be talking about my results for "O" Levels Chinese and how my English Oral went. Like always, wish me luck!

P.S: Boy, I'm very nervous about Oral!

Before I start this post, here's a (rather late) Message:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE!!!

Yep, it was Singapore's 44th Birthday a few days ago.

Contrary to the the previous post, this post will be very short. I'm rather busy this week so I hope you guys would understand.

I would not be discussing about my Prelims 2 Marks until I get back my report book (or until next week, I got time).
Like I said earlier, it was very disappointing.


Next up, lots of things happened over the week but I may not have the time to discuss them. I'm so sorry.

To be frank with you, I'm just updating with this super brief post so as to let you know that, no, I had not stopped blogging. I just simply lost track of time and you know, forgot to blog on Sunday. :p

Which is why I'm posting this post in the meantime before next Sunday which I believe, I will be writing about happened over last week as well. (Which might mean it will be another long post. Hahas)

Well, finally, next Monday would be my "O" Levels English Oral Examination, followed by the announcement of my "O" Levels Chinese Results on Wednesday.

So, wish me luck! (and for tomorrow's Amaths Test too!) Hahas.

Will update with a more worthy post, sorta promise!
