Today is the day I can finally and officially burn all the papers....books and everything associated with chinese!!! Wooooo!!!! No more chinese! Cheena-no-more! I'm finally freed from the damn subject after 13 years of learning it! It will be a big enormous full stop to chinese lessons and tuition. Ahahahahahahaha..... I'm not really worried about the final chinese grade. Haha. I have already passed the previous O'Level, but just signed up to re-take the paper today, hopefully to get a better grade.

Southern Chicken
Seafood PlatterThat was for lunch at Cafe Cartel, with Khai Theng.
Today, life seemed like a dread. Reality was a road in the distance and to me, life drove on that road, in slow motion. The only thing to amuse myself was fantasy. My day dreaming seemed like the only thing keeping me from falling, while the reality of the day always tried to push me down, down, down and down into the big black hole of boredom and nothing else. But the ringing of the usual school bell always wakes me when I'm falling.
As the day ends, reality is more clear, ending school, and all that crap. Anyway, we all know, life just kills us and knowing that school is 5 out of 7 days in a week, then ya...everything turns out foggy and shitty just like pooty tang! Lol! School just suck at times, and every moment feels like an eternity. Filled with hardship, regret and never ending hatred. But fortunately, today's a Friday.
Almost everyone I know believes that my life is all "happy", and "joyful" and all those pure and perfect stuff, when really, my life is just like a mascarade, hidden beneath. Oh well, ok, maybe i'm exaggerating a little, but whatever! Anyway, duty calls!

Life is a journey through many terrains,
From gardens of pleasure to deserts of pain.
From an ocean of love to a jungle of hate,
From mountains of glory to canyons of fate.
There's a highway for joy and a highway for sorrow,
A road for today and a road for tomorrow.
So choose your path wisely and walk it with care,
If you follow your heart,
you'll find your way there.
I've swum in the ocean and drunk of it's wine
I've run through the jungle and hung from a vine.
I've been to the garden and planted seeds there,
I've been to the desert and felt the despair.
I climbed up the montain to touch the sky,
I went to the canyon and started to cry.
I've travelled both highways,
both today and tomorrow,
I've basked in the joy and wallowed the sorrow.
My path has been chosen and i've walked it with care,
I followed my heart and i'm on my way there.
So I'll just keep walking till I find what i'm after,
To mountains and oceans and gardens of laughter.
From gardens of pleasure to deserts of pain.

A road for today and a road for tomorrow.

Great! I have passed the Rock climbing Level 1 assesment! Ahahaha! I think practically everyone did. We were being assessed on our belaying techniques. It was easy!! Fun man! Haha. And I could finally tie a nice, decent, double knot today. All thanks to Miss Li Yu Min. :)
I actually promised myself last night that I won't try climbing today as my left arm ached terribly after yesterday's climb. Daddio rubbed my arms with the muscle cream last night, thus it wasn't hurting as badly as it did. And today, I guessed my action spoke louder than words. I climbed 7 or 8 times.
Overall, the two day course was marvellous. I'm gonna miss rock climbing badly!

Woo-hoo!! Rock climbing today was awesome! Fun, thrilling and challenging! It was held at Keppel Tower, and guess what? Its indoors! Away from the scorching sun, with the cool air-conditioning. Lovelay. A rare sight though, as rock climbing activities are usually held outdoors. Ya?
Anyway, we were taught how to tie the special kind of knots for climbing. One word for it... complicated! We were also taught belaying. It was hard for me to catch initially, but it was not too bad after some practice. Call me "slow" or whatever. I'll accept it. Hah! The most exciting part was still the climbing bit. So spinky dity funnnnnn!!!!!! LOL. Fun fun fun fun fun! Really. Oh yeah! There will be more tomorrow. Last day. Final try out. Fully paid for by the school. So I'll just make full use of it! :))
Rock climbing is another activity you would perhaps wanna try out if you are willing to take up a challenge and challenge yourself to it! Enjoy!

I just read a short story in a Christian book. It made me reflect upon myself, as well as to give thanks for all that I had been given in life, for we shall not take anything that comes by for granted. For me, God has given me a wonderful daddy and mommy, no one could ever replace. :))
Lesson learnt:
God carefully weighs each cross we carry. He makes sure it is one not too light to make us complacent in life, nor one too heavy to make us bitter, helpless and desperate. God never gives us a cross we cannot handle. He is always there to help us carry it.
"The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth, and even forevermore." [Psalm 121:8]

Ooohhh yes!!!! Finally caught the movie Goal! with Yu Min and Joselyn at Orchard Cine today. School ended at 1.45pm, so we had to rush like mad in order to catch the movie at 2.50pm. The show was ohhhh-sooooo-fine! Cool! Interesting! Touching! Overall..brilliant!
Oh my goodness!! The main character, Kuno Becker's not bad looking at all! It featured Newcastle, Chelsea and Liverpool football club. There was only a 2 minutes glimpse of Raul Gonzalez and David Beckham. Wasted! Oh and there was Frank Lampard too!! Ahaha. The show was quite touching. I cried towards the last part. Watch the movie and you'll find out why! Hah! Oh my and there was this guy sitting behind us who cried too. Goodness! Never have I thought that a guy would shed tears during the movies! Alright alright...they are humans too.
Went to Heeren to get some hair accessories after that. And guess who we saw?? Dennis Heng!! The sweetie-guy aka "Issac" in Light Years! OMG!!! He's taller in person than on screen. Cooler too. We were in the same shop as he was, and he was with his girlfriend.

left: khai theng, right: me! KT treated me to sushi for lunch today. LOL. She ordered so much and kept making me eat, when I myself had my portion to complete too. Haha! Went to Century Square to take my "first-neoprint-of-the-year". (the one above)
Sigh! Chinese O' levels on the 31st October! I passed my mt o's, but I will be re-taking it as my grade wasn't up to expectations. Seriously, I don't feel like taking chinese anymore! Hurhur. Everyone probably knows by now how much I loathe mother tongue! Besides, I haven't flipped a page of chinese text since 31st May, excluding magazines I mean. Now, with two weeks left, looks like I will just have to tolerate with the cheena cheena for that two annoying weeks.
OMG!!!! I cannot stop thinking about Adam Scott!!! He's so hottttyyyy hotttyyy hotttyyy!!!!!! Frank Lampard too! Woo-hooooo!! I searched for pictures of them yesterday, and I found really cool ones. Tonnes of them. Haha! OMG!!!!

My goodness!!! Watched 'Stairway To Heaven' from 10pm yesterday till 4.45am today. Believe it or not! But still, had like 3 more vcds to complete the entire show. Mummy and I were glued on the google box. We were addicted! Yeah and I cried till my eyes were so red and a little swollen! The show's really sad and touching!
I woke up at 11.30am today and continued watching, all the way till 3pm. The last few episodes were unbearable. I kept crying at the last part. Jingshu died in the arms of Chengjun, close to the beach-side house. They talked about how they would still love and remember each other, even though they will be in different worlds. Sweet, but so sad! Chengjun told Jingshu he loved her very much and finally, before she died, he said: "Goodbye, Jingshu." That part, my tears flowed out uncontrollably. I'm gonna re-watch it again with mum tonight!

OMG!!!!!!! Its finally over!! Yeah yeah yeah!! N' levels are finally over. Heaving a big sigh of relief! All the papers went on smoothly. I shall say it was easier than prelims. God's grace.
Had our final paper today. It ended at 11am, but we were being held back by our principal and vp till 11.30am. Shitloads! Drills drills drills and more drills for the final two weeks of school. Our school has planned a bridging programme for us. Oh no! They said it was to bridge the gap between 4N and 5N. Hurhur.
Anyway, rushed home after that to shower and get changed. Chiong town with Yu Min! Ahahahaha. We can finally let go the 9 months of torture and suffering, and let our freedom lose! Woooooooo!! Lunched at Subway. After that, shopped shopped shopped and walked the entire streets of Orchard Roady. Went to Raffles City, The Soup Spoon, for dinner. Mummy met us around 7.30pm. Daddio came to pick us up at the entrance of Swissotel. We gave Yu Min a lift back home. :))
