MY STUPID COMPUTER IN THE LIVING ROOM DIED YESTERDAY.
I'm using my sister's new HP laptop while she's at tuition. This is so sucky. I tried to switch it on after school but it just refused to, and so after CIP tuition I came home and asked dad to fix it. He's currently still trying to do something about it. Just as well, since promos are coming and I shouldn't be using the computer anyway. One less distraction.
But I need the damn computer to do I&R. PW is a bitch.
Eeyer wth! All of a sudden, the screen becomes dimmer.
Oh yeah. I had this random conversation with my sister one night, before we went to sleep. It went something like this:
Jie: Hey do you remember that when we were young we used to ask what was the meaning of meaning?
Me: Is it?
Jie: Yeah. You don't remember? You were seven and I was ten.
Me: So what is the meaning of meaning?
Jie: We never figured it out.
LOL.
My hand is still swollen. I have no idea why.

Meow!
10/9/09: Met Vera at City Hall and went to Marina Square's Subway to study! We both were late but she was later. Anyway, we studied after lunch and after studying, we went shopping! Tried on clothes at Zara together. I bought two tops there - it was such a steal! Oh yeah, and we had dinner at Long John. Hahaha. It was so silly of me to have forgotten the existence of the food court there. Talked to my twin, walked a lot, and went home feeling damn tired.
11/9/09: My mum took a day off work and we visited Ah Ma. I did my Math revision package there. Went shopping at Marina Square. Again.
12/9/09: Studied with Yingwei at Jurong library! We talked a lot but managed to do quite a bit; an econs essay, a case study and the chinese essay plan thingy. Yay! Our chinese essay plan is super funny. Hahaha. It has something to do with the darkness - imagery!
14/9/09: It's a sucky day. First day of term 4. Booooooooooooooooooooz. I totally dread going to school and I dread sitting for promos even more. Chinese already killed me in the morning and for the last lesson, I almost died a few times due to balls flying over and almost hitting my head. Oh, and GP debate was really funny! I think my part was stupid because I prepared last minute and talked shit, but who cares.
Life is so sucky. We're just young people who want to have fun, but our fates are ridiculously determined by something called the promotional exams. Jeez. Students have no life and no youth. Students have to study for exams all the freaking time.
Not that I've done much mugging in my life. This is my first time trying to mug. I don't think it's working. I didn't even study this much for 'O' levels!
The future for youths of Singapore is exciting and inspiring? Riiiight. All that will happen is that youths will grow up, maybe graduate from university, get a job and start working.
The job may not be exciting or fulfilling. Just look at some teachers. Okay, so some of them really enjoy teaching, their faces glow and they radiate the spirit of teaching. Good for them. But it seems that there are more of those who are doing their job for the sake of doing it. And they complain that students have the 'do work for the sake of doing it' mindset as well. Which is true. We are ALL doing things just for the sake of doing those things. Why do humans complicate our own lives so much? Why do we come up with ideologies and systems to make our own lives more miserable?
I'd rather be a cat.

In the land of submarines
The previous entry was a hoax. I actually wanted to update.
31/8/09: Teachers' Day celebrations would have been quite boring if not for the great company and the funny performances! In the morning we had this lame walk along the canal. Yingwei and Lynn were on Media Club duty so Miuyen and I tagged along. Managed to snap some nice photos! We slacked and halfway through we decided to turn back. In the hall, the Student Council put up this really funny skit. And there were many funny outfits for Be Yourself Day.
A group of us took the bus down to BBSS after school, walked through the field and met lots of people outside the general office who were already there. Visited Mr. Lattif and Mdm Yeo, our form teachers last year! Thankfully for us, they had not left the school yet. Took only a few photos, which are up on facebook.
Debby, Michelle, Jiaying, Chrystabel, Ruishan, Shiya, Mei Rong and I went to the KFC behind school to have lunch! Then Michelle and Debby left while the rest of us went to Westmall to walk around. Melina caught up with us along the way. Bumped into Atiqah and Amalina too! Had a nice time just chatting and window shopping with them. Used to do that a lot last time.
2/9/09: Had a chinese mock exam in the morning. Stayed back in the canteen for a while with Miu and Yingwei. There was actually a plan to watch a movie but it was cancelled since a lot of people couldn't make it. So the three of us came over to my house, supposedly to do our work and study, but we ended up talking the whole time! It was so fun to just talk and laze around.
4/9/09: The day went by in a whirl; there were lessons as usual, then GP consultation with Ms Chua, followed by an Econs make up lesson (conducted by Mr. Tay and his crustacean) and then CIP tuition.
I feel more pressurised to do well for GP. And CIP tuition was extra tiring because I had to teach alone again, since the rest have choir. I used the whiteboard to teach, answered their questions, talked and entertained some of them. But it was too much to handle and later the girls separated themselves from the boys. I managed to get the whole class back and we played hide and seek together. It totally drained away all my energy but it was really fun. I felt like a kid again, except that it was really hard for me to find a good hiding spot.
5/9/09: Can you believe that I actually studied for a test? Went to the JE library with YW, MY and Lynn to study and we were quite productive! Took neoprints at JP too! Yeah I know that neoprints are like way outdated but who cares.
6/9/09: President's Challenge - Run Singapore.
I woke up late and rushed over to Marina Square. YW, MY, Lynn and Justin were already there at McDonald's. Met Joseph and Don too and all of us met the rest of the class outside Raffles City. We walked to Padang from there and reported for our class CIP. It was quite boring. We had to walk to our assigned spots. I was with YW, Lynn, Vada and Hanif. Just had to stand there and watch the runners go by. We were observing cute little children, as well as old (but fit!) people. I was stoning out when Naiimah and Gracia called out to me as they ran past.
After the event it was back to Marina Square with Justin, Daniel, Lynn and MY. We accompanied Lynn, who had dinner at Yoshinoya, before going window shopping. Justin made MY and Daniel try on some clothes and he was going into the "fashion designer mode" which was so ego, so gay.
7/9/09: It was back to school for Econs and History tests. Met Brenda in the morning and revised a little. The test was horrible as I didn't have to time to finish it. After a half an hour break it was history. It was a surprise as I managed to write more than usual. Felt super drained after both tests and went to Lot 1 with YW, MY, Lynn and Justin to have lunch at McDonald's.
8/9/09: My PW group interviewed Ms Catherine! We almost got lost a few times; when we were looking for her house and when we were on our way to the Eurasian Association.
9/9/09: I didn't know that there's a library near Jurong Point. YW brought me there today, and we studied with MY and Lynn. I focused only on Math and was totally brain dead at the end of our study session.
