there's about 1 hour and 30 mins left before the new week begins.
it's going to be a very tough week.
i can foresee 4 consecutive days of late night studying, with only about 3, 4 hours of sleep? erm hopefully.
sigh.
the only thing that can sustain me right now is the thought of going to feast at a vegetarian restaurant with nive once the last paper ends on friday and the weekend that will be spent shopping and cycling- basically just have lots of fun and relief before getting back down to schoolwork again. :D

i just made a vow to myself that i must study extremely, extremely hard from now onwards, for prelims and a levels.
mid years is already a gone case for me. i think i'm going to fail chem and geog... D:
hope i can manage to scrape through maths and physics.
i had already tried to hint to my mother that the mid years exams aren't really that important.
hope she got the hint. haha
hmm 4 months left to a levels! i can do it! and i will survive victorious!
:)

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her skies

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you...
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
'Til I find somebody new

the chances are getting slimmer and slimmer..
looks like it's already 99. 9 percent confirmed that school is going to resume as usual on monday.. why oh why :(

guess what, i just started studying geog today! ..when the geog paper is just next wed.
still got chem, physics, gp and maths somemore.
still got so many topics left to study.. and several sub-topics and sub-sub-topics and sub-sub-sub-topics....
i just want to die xP

i thought of giving up on chem and concentrate on geog instead.
but nive the "hot and smart" one just advised me to ditch geog for chem.
she said it's wiser to fare well for chem mid years so that i will be free from any misery i will possibly get from hu if i fail.
hmm she had a point. heard some people have been mugging doubly hard for chem, hoping to get out of hu's remedial programme. haha
in desperate times like these, we can't avoid having to sacrifice some things eh?
strategic studying, haha

hai..
if only i could have that one more precious week of holidays...... *dreams*

FINALLY, my aunt flew back to sarawak yesterday!
haha, oops, do i sound relieved and abit too happy?
for the 5 days which she was here, i hadn't been able study quite effectively.
had been going out almost every single day. and the hot weather didn't make me feel like studying at all. :(
haiz die liao lor.

anyway, last fri-sat, i went for famine camp.
i signed up for the camp last year too, but i didn't go in the end.
this time, i finally got to experience the feeling of going without food for 30 hours.
it wasn't as agonising as it seemed but it got abit intolerable towards the end when we started to anticipate the food at the end of the camp.
i have learnt alot through the camp, about children with aids who lost their parents since young and have to struggle to make a living for themselves.
my group facilitator, unlike some other facilitators, was someone who was kinda serious and always reminding us of the objectives of the camp and asking us for our reflections after the end of each activity. and that, i feel, was what made the camp even more meaningful.
she shared with us her experiences during her trip to the impoverished areas.
and she said she has started on child sponsorship since 18 years old! up till now, at the age of 28, she has already sponsored 10 children.
she had inspired me pretty much. and right now, one of my main goals in life is to sponsor a child! :)


here's a couple of pictures from the camp!





day two, we had to go around from door to door to collect newspapers and old clothes at the tampines hdb estate.
my group did 6 blocks of flats.
could you imagine how exhausted we all felt by the end of the 3 hours we took after climbing up and down the stairs, knocking from door to door and carrying heavy loads of newspapers and clothing from one location to another under the blazing hot sun with an empty stomach?
haha but we survived nevertheless.
then we headed down to downtown east for the finale concert.
and the highlight was, A-mei, who was also the world vision ambassador, performed for us!
oh i forgot to mention that i got to see her quite close up during the opening ceremony in day one! she looked really pretty in person. haha
and finally came the moment we all had been waiting for.. break fast!
haha everything tasted so nice after being deprived of food for 30 hours.
:D

today i initially wanted to go jurong bird park for the world donors' day carnival but i still felt unwell after falling sick last night. :(
so the whole day i spent my time lazing around at home and had a very good rest. haha
the first phase of my study plan had already gone down the drain.. :(
but at least it's not too late to start from the second phase eh?
haha i always try to find ways to console myself.

plan B, here i come!

i enjoy travelling alone on the train, especially during non-peak hours when there are very few other passengers and many empty seats around.
i would always find myself a seat at my favourite two-seated corner and i would either observe the people around me or stare at the outside scenery in deep thoughts.
like today after maths mass tutorial, i trained home by myself.
i was happy to find an empty seat at my favourite corner the moment i stepped into the train.
at that instance when i sat down, my mind switched into the thinking and reflecting mode automatically.
i began to think to myself that i should draft out my study plan and hurry get down to serious mugging.
i thought about cutting down on the time spent on watching tv and playing com.
i decided to buy three delicious red bean baos for myself from the coffee shop near my house later.
i tried to imagine the train being stationary and it was the world outside that were moving instead.
and i fianlly decided that it was time to update my dead little blog.

it has been more than a month since i had my last blog entry.
the month of may had been plagued by laziness and fatigue for me.
i ponned school, ponned lectures, ponned tutorials, didn't do homework... i had been a very bad student. :(
finally june holidays are here!
now after much rest, i feel more energised and more motivated to study! (albeit at a take-my-own-sweet-time rate)
still, i couldn't resist the temptation of ponning the makeup lectures the past two days.. BUT i managed to drag myself to school today! :D
cheryl joy was right.
you should never try ponning school at all, not even once.
when there is the first time, there will be a second, then third, fourth, fifth....
you can get addicted easily.
now i am trying to kick off the habit. still trying.


many things happened over the past several weeks.
we got bronze for our guitar syf to much despair, shock and disappointment. but since then, we got much bonded tgt as a guitar ensemble than ever before, so i suppose it was a blessing in disguise?
then there was the guitar bbq at roxane's house.
then... i can't recall much already. haha
oh yes, more recently, i helped out for the special olympics pre-event. i was very inspired and touched by the sheer determination exuded by the athletics. there will be two more bigger ones to come in this month of june. :)
AND there was the aj's dazzle concert! cheryl and the et section juniors came down to support!
was so touched that they came, and paiseh at the same time. felt like it was my first (and last) concert although it wasn't our very own guitar concert.
AND last but not least, we had our guitar farewell last friday. like what mdm khoo had said during one of her timely lectures to us, our "career" as a guitarist had come to an end and we will go on to start a new chapter in life. but at least for me, my passion for guitar does not end here.
i am glad for all the wonderful memories i had. the most memorable times i have in aj will definitely those spent in guitar. :) and not forgetting the many valuable friends i have made.
till now, i have not regretted a single bit for choosing to quit band and join guitar instead.
although aj band is like so prestigious now. (gwh leh! vs guitar's bronze)
haha :)


shall end here for the time being !
-to be continued-
haha
