School reopens!

Hahaaa, long time didn't see. Didn't blog because the first week of school were too busy. Anyways, I am at home now, Youth Day on Monday. Oh and next week's gonna be a short one because we have fun fair on Friday. Our class are selling marshmallows, strawberries and bananas dipped in chocolate, Yummy!

Anyways, our dan dan teacher was quite nice. She's actually good. Okay, our first lesson of the term was, guess what, Maths with Mr Tiong. Then we had Chinese Speech training. Our class was seperated into two groups. Me, in register 1-18, was taken by the male huang laoshi(da ping guo laoshi*big apple*). He was an interesting guy. He told us to introduce our names by using some other words. And I was called BASE in the end. My class practically was roaring with laughter and they continue calling me Base until now. Oh, and I was late because I had difficulties taking off my shoes.*My shoe pad was stucked to my leg. Anyways Jie Ying waited for me so she was late too. We were made to tell the class something, according to the teacher, we weren't punished. He was trying to make us buck up our confidence XD. Anyways I told them a joke. There was a refrigerator. There were eggs inside. The first egg told the second egg "Hey see. The last egg has hair!" Then the second egg told the third egg "Hey, the last egg has hair on it!" The last eg overheard and told them " Helloooo*fustrated*, I am not an egg, I am a KIWI!!!!!" They all went laughing. Then the teacher said " Very good! XD" Mmm, we also got to see Dandan. I found out her name wasn't 蛋蛋,it's 丹丹。Hahas. And her surname was huang too. Anyways, we had LA too. Did a couple of things. It wasn't as boring as I expected. Then we had assembly after lunch. They talked about stealing, hacking accounts, and cheating. It has been happening in our level. I knew two of the cases. I heard that the person who hacked into people's account to change the sabbaticals was made a PSL(peer support leader) later on. Then I went to the comp lab but I didn't update my blog, obviously.

Second day... nothing much if I am not wrong. gao xin complained that some one in her math statistics group and her chinese fps group has someone who didn't want to contribute at all and they are different people. Anyways, she said if she had a weak heart, she would have died a few times. I didn't laugh, because it's no laughing matter. She and yunge went to find Mr Tiong and huang laoshi, hope that they can solve some problem. CCA that day was okay, quite fun in fact. Mr Lee was complaining about us being lazy and not practicing hard enough though. Oh and I saw my science teacher on this day. She said I would get skin cancer if I continue sitting on my sit because the sunlight is shining on me. So I moved away.

I went to the library on Wednesday to read "The Darkest hour" my book! Anyways, those people on the exchange progamme who came to our school(some from France, Australia, New Zealand, U.K. and more) were so noisy. Two of them were even dancing. You can imagine the noise they make. When I was finishing my book, two seniors I didn't know approachd me. They wanted to have an interview with me. They gave me two questions and made me sit down somewhere in the library, which was the place I was sitting. Then one of them started video taping and the other one asked me he questions. I think I answered quite sheepishly because I was stucked to the book for the past 2 and a half hours and my brain wasn't really working properly. But anyways, I answered their question and they thanked me and went away and I continued reading. End of story. The questions were funny, one was "互相竞争会给学生带来好处还是坏处?为什么?" and "你觉得我校课外活动能在什么方面改善?" Then I took around 5 minutes to get myself ready. I was quite dizzy when I look up to them and I only realized they were talking to me.

Thursday, oh I went to Mr Tiong's remedial class for fun that day. Then I went for sectionals. Practically did nothing. During prep, Mr Chia saw my photo with liu ee, boon fong and jia le in Genting, and my concert tickets for my parents. Then he came to talk to me. And he thought I bought the tickets to support my friends XD. Then he realized I am in band, and I remember telling him when he saw me carrying my clarinet long time ago. Anyways, I was reading my newspaper then he took my other newspaper and sat down opposite me and read. Then he started asking me those chinese words, like how to pronounce and what's the meaning. He asked a couple of words so I told him and he said my chinese's "not bad". I was thinking of saying 'I am good XD, not "not bad". And it's your chinese's that is lousy. XD" HAHAHA. But I decided not to say this out. Then he asked me if I was going for the activity he was organising. It was something like accompanying some old people and mentally or physically disabled people to a place. Then I said maybe and most probably yes. Then he said " Can you play your clarinet? I was thinking about having some performances for them. This is a rare occasion for them to come out." Then I said " Er,yeah can. If they don't mind squeaking XD. Don't want lah actually it's very awful." Then he said "It doesn't matter, it's your heart that counts. They will appreciate it." Lols, I think he's right afterall. After prep Mr Chia told those who's most probably be going to stay back and told us about those stuff. I found him repeating those things her told me earlier and found it boring. Anyways, Ms Cheung was supposed to check our rooms after prep but she did it during prep instead. And she found that our lights were on and wrote on the comments slip, it says "Didn't turn of lights ): Next time I will fine $$$" And she really put in those signs and the face, so cute... Then she said we need to mop the floor and report to the office that our shower tap is leaking but we didn't. We intended to do it next time, when we remember.

Friday, time crawls. But CCA was truly fun. We were chased out to practice on outselves, all sec ones. So we went to the science block 4th floor. Then we played the Bavarian BBQ and Simple Serenade. Then we played the school song and simple gifts and a lot more. Pauline said she's going to faint because she played to hard. She wanted to reach the F resting in the fifth line(normal five lines, no additional ones) in treble clef. It was actually in simple serenade 3rd trumpet. No wonder they made hr play 3rds. I can't imagine how the 1st trumpet score look like. She said for simple serenade, there were notes four lines above the five lines for 1st. But we indeed sounded better after playing together. We made a conclusion : Bonding is important. Lols but it makes sense! Then I went back around 6.30pm. I went to eat and then bathe. Then I went for the English tuition in the exhibition room. Then I was told that my results for my LA was too high for the school to pay my tuition fees for me. That means I can choose not to go anymore! What luck!But you know my Language Arts mark is only 69% XD and Alicia's 65 something. I really don't know what others' results are. Fail? 60 just nice? Not sure. Hahaa, it's the best announcement I get for the whole week and it made the tuition bearable. After tuition, I went back home!

I shall not talk more now as I am feeling extremely tired, it's 0:53am now. So byeees.

Oh yeah, if some kind soul see this, please tell Sabrina(Clarinet SL) that I cannot go for band pracs on week 4 also because I am away! Okay, actually it's this week but my brother's CCA senior called him to go for CCA so....the trip postponed to next week. I am supposed to go for CCA this week, but too bad I had flu. And I don't want to get into the "ciku ciku*" 170 bus full of bacteria and get sick again. Yeah, I GOT THOSE GERMS ON THE BUS. >.<that complicated, it's just a thick thick worksheet that needs loads of writing and tedious working. Aww, it depresses me everytime I think of it. Anddd, the Chinese was as bad. There's CME malay 剪贴簿 and SAIL that needs a report. Oh we still need to read 西游记 but I read already. Arrr, I missed out LA scenario writing, I am gonna die for sure.
*Don't ask me why it's called ciku ciku bus, ask Chuan Ling. But according to her, it's me that told her 'I took 170 and ciku ciku ciku... all the way here and spent 2 hours on it.' XD but I don't remember any bit of it. So never mind. Let it be...I always wanted a simple life. That's it. TV time. Byeees.

Finally back....

Came back from Xing YIng's house for project and came back at 12.00am today. Went to sleep immediately. Oh yeah... project.


It was kinda fun, in Xing Ying's house. Watched her crapping with her gay friend and her so called cousin on MSN. Her house was counted as huge. It has...three storeys. Yeah, and nice nice bathrooms. I slept with Xing Ying on Mondy night. She tried to take me as her pillow and I pushed her off as I woke up. *irritated* Before we sleep, she warned me not to roll all over her bed and she rolled instead. Lol. We slept at 12am and she went to the toilet in the middle of the night. I had an urge to stick my head into the ceiling because it's so near that I can actually touch it. I hope it doesn't sound weird. Anyways, we woke up at 7 the next day. We went to the roadside immediately as Xing Ying took a long time in the bathroom. We stood beside the lampost like a lampost XD. It's so boring. You would be very free when the traffic light it red. But when it turns green and all vehicles are rushing all over >.<>Okay, about today...Nothing to say about. Oh, I went for band yesterday and the day before. I was very fun. I like pirates dream, the eighties, simple gifts, merry widow and all except for Aesop Fables and Metro Gnome. Aesop Fables has loads of semi quavers' chromatics and Metro Gnome has the beat of seven quavers in a bar XD. The conductor will go "1 2, 1 2, 1 2 3! 1 2, 1 2, 1 2 3!" Then it will suddenly change to "1 2 3, 1 2, 1 2! 1 2, 1 2 3, 1 2!"So complicated, I only played the first note and the ending XD.

Okay, Byeeeees!
