I HAVE SURVIVED. I HAVE SURVIVED. The extreme 'shiong' week of A levels but baby I survived. (barely) I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give, but once the weekend ends A levels'll be back to bother meeeee

I spent most of the day on the computer Yay. Except for the few hours in which I did a case study. My eyes are spoil :(

I was looking back at the old O level posts and it got me remembering those times, what it felt like... and it proved to me that YES, I DID FEEL SCARED AND UNPREPARED BEFORE THE EXAMS. SO MY FEELINGS RIGHT NOW ARE JUSTIFIED. HAHA. But the feeling's died down somewhat. I kinda miss it cause it motivated me. It might have depressed me but at least it kinda motivated me. Somewhat. Okay maybe not really.

Maths paper 1 was tougher than expected. Paper 2 was refreshingly simpler compared to paper 1. And the numbers cambridge give are so super nice I swear they probably take AGES just to come up with one sum because they want to make sure all the calculations give out nice numbers. It was also extremely refreshing in that way. :D One odd thing about me is that I hate decimals that cannot be changed into something nicer looking, like a fraction.

GP was haha! I didn't write a conclusion for essay though I had one minute left in which I could probably have squeezed in one sentence stating, once and for all, my stand on the whole issue. But NOOOO, at that crucial moment I had to think writing a conclusion was, as I quote my thoughts, "lame". Only after they said pens down did I realise that I SHOULD HAVE WRITTEN A CONCLUSION, no matter how lame it would have sounded because it was just stating simply my stand. Now the examiners will never know my stand :( and for the first time in my whole gp life I was so happy with that essay, besides the conclusion bit... sighz. The only thing that was running through my head when they were collecting the scripts was, "this is going to haunt me for the rest of my life"

Compre was not much happier cause I didn't get the flow of the passage at all and they asked us about the author's view when frankly I felt he had no concrete view at all. And then I started mentally scolding the passage.

Bio was........I SURVIVED. For some reason I thought it ended at 3.45 when it was supposed to end at 4, so I was rushing through my last two essay parts and actually kinda finished them! ...Then I looked closer at my watch and realised it ended at 4. Sigh.

Chem was sigh okay lah. No funny stories sadly :(

KILLER ECONS NEXT WEEK. I am not at the maximum of happiness right now though maths and gp is done forever, because there's still ECONS to get through. Next friday will be one of the happiest days of my life with no more econs. For now I shiver in my seat and await dooooom. Oh arts and humanities subjects, how my science-ish brain dislikes you ever so.

Agnus Dei

Alleluia
Alleluia
For the Lord God Almighty reigns

Amen

The details would blow your mind

If I ever become a singer, I want to be like

Mika.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Or rather, if there ever should be a twist in life's events and the odd, terribly unlikely chance should suddenly be bestowed upon this wretched lifeform, then damn right I want to be like Mika. In fact I sometimes even want to be him. But right now (and for eternity) it's just a far-fetched, extremely incredible fantasy. 8) Technically, I also rather it stay a fantasy. :P

I love 8 Days because they always succeed in putting the thoughts that I always find hardest to put down in words, in words. (that lame and awkward sentence being exact proof of my disability)

"Each Mika album is like a tub of jelly beans. It's bursting with colours, flavours and there's hardly a dud moment. (I AGREE WHOLEHEARTEDLY) This exuberant sophomore release tampers with a more severe electronica twang (I NOTICED THIS TOO) on several tracks like 'Rain'. But it's the frenetic piano bubblegum pop on 'We are Golden' and 'Good Gone Girl' where Mika's Midas touch truly astounds."

I love that underlined phrase. I love it to bits. It practically sums up my favourite kind of music which I've never been able to put in words. And to think I only found out what my favourite kind of music was after listening to Mika's previous album WHOOTZ. Crazy fan-moment over. Humanity returns.

Random update on life: It could be worse, I'm not complaining :) Smiles and goodwill all around! But let the fire of wrath doth smite thee shopping centres who have already put up christmas decorations... This Alevel student does not wish to be reminded of christmas when her exams aren't even here yet. >:(

And just for fun,

Ahaha. Sporadic update time!

Wednesday was the last day of having lessons in school and as a result no one was really paying attention during the actual lessons HAHA. Whoops sorry mr chua mrs singh and ms mai :( Anyways to summarise we went crazy and sarah chui and I brought cameras so in effect we went crazy taking photos of everything. Ms zhu didn't come to school so we had 4 extra free periods which we used really productively in our base classroom (F4.2, my favourite place) locking people out! :) Then sarah found a way to get in by climbing through the window HAHA. During lessons a whole stream of class photos were being passed round to be signed and got me a teeny bit emotional heh.

Then yesterday was baccalaureate service. Sigh. I cried. Sigh. I think I've cried more in my two years in JC than I have in my 10 years in MG. I went crazy screeching out the songs at the end with my choir friends haha. Anyways, after the service ser akalya and I passed diana her DOMO BAG :D as an early birthday present!! The reason for buying a domo was simple - both of them have huge mouths. And well a bag cause it was cute. So when we saw it in the shop on tuesday when we were scouting for a present it was like a YES! SCORE moment hahaha. Then we went to join our class and a period of EXTREME CAMWHORING ensued. IT WAS AMAZING. It was total camera frenzy!! We were all taking individual, group and class shots at groundbreaking speed and every single second there would be people posing and camera flashes all around hahaha. And this was only at the bleachers. We moved off to the smiley, but on the way there got distracted by more camwhoring so much so that it was ages before we finally reached the smiley HAHA. After that, I was so tired.

Finally when we had enough of taking photos we trooped off to vivo to eat lunch and watch (500) days of summer! There was way lot of time before the movie so we spent that on the roof top of vivo at the bleachers?atrium?steps?-like place (I have no idea what it's called) just chilling out. Then some of my classmates went to the open area to play pepsi cola HAHA. Free show for everyone around! In fact when my class swarmed the area I could imagine the people there thinking, "Oh no! Crazy students coming!" but heck care them lah. But it was good cause there weren't many people there so we could make as much noise as we wanted :) For the first time this year, life actually felt like it was slowing down amidst all the flurry of studying and work, and the time we spent up there on vivo's rooftop was really nice, relaxing and tranquil :) I really wished we could just stay there the whole day, as if we had nothing to worry about...but then the time came for us to watch the movie so we had to go HAHA. Well the movie was nice, though I was very flabbergasted at summer cause I cannot understand her way of thinking at all! And zooey deschanel really looks like katy perry, I cannot stand it. Everytime I saw her I was like thinking katyperrykatyperry.

In general, this whole year has been really crazy, from start to end. There's no other word to describe it. I've had so many happy times, sad times, fun times, stressful times - but really it just boils down to how awesome it has all been for me. And that's really truly madly deeply cause of the most best friends I could ever ask for. Last year, we were all just total strangers (or not really total strangers) from different schools who just happened to be put in the same class, and now these total strangers have become some of my closest friends who always make me look forward to coming to school. Every day spent with them is a joy haha, cause of all the whacked-out things we do :P And to know that they're always around me no matter what makes me feel really secure, and well I'm never any good at moving on and out of my comfort zone hehe.

So, to ser, diana, akalya, chui, sarah, steph, jasper, zhao and dom: The times I've spent with you guys, whether eating, studying, laughing, going crazy, talking rubbish or even serious things, were some of the best times of my life, and I really thank God for all of you :) And now I will stop being sentimental because it wastes a lot of time!! Hahaha.

The bestest friends I could ever ask for...plus domo

The best class I could ever ask for :)

Random shot of them playing pepsi cola haha :D

I AM TOO EMOTIONAL FOR MY OWN GOOD. I disgust myself. Hahaha :P

My theme song for today: Smile

You make me smile like the sun, fall out of bed
Sing like a bird, dizzy in my head
Spin like a record crazy on a sunday night
You make me dance like a fool, forget how to breathe (aiyoh can die like that leh)
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh you make me smile

You guys make me smile :)
