I did my re-run for 2.4 km today cos i wasn't too happy with the earlier results and I broke my personal record!! I completed the run in 13min30sec!!! I am so happy ! I beat my previous record by 7s and I have improved my last run by 36sec!! (even though i didn't go train) LOL! which was amazing! That i could still run that well and break my personal record. Oh well, I am just so happy!!!!

My next target will be the x-country! It's gna be held during the National Day week. I am so gna try my best to win myself a trophy for the x-country. And I must make sure that I get into the top10 and win myself a trophy!! I missed the trophy in sec1 cos i got 15th and that year they only gave it to the top12. When I was in Sec2, I missed it due to band commitments. And last year, that was the stupidest one. I actually end up at the wrong place cos I was a smart alleck, thinking that the underpass will definitely link to the venue where we are supposed to meet. Sadly, it did not turn out as it is. I was with Gena, Xiaotian, Wan Qi and Reegin then. We walked for nearly half an hour before we reached. And by the time we reached, the Sec3 batch had already started running. That was rly saddening cos I had been waiting for the x-country and that time I did rly train for it!

So this year, I had better make sure that I will reach the place on time, or better, earlier. I am gna try my best to get into the top10!! I MUST get into top10 ! It's my final year in Chung Cheng already. I had better do something to make myself proud!! And that is to get into top10! But among the top 10, I wish to be like at least in the top3. That is MY GOAL !

Today was photo taking with the band !!

But it was such a pity that the sec4s can't get to wear the old band uniform for our own photo. It was really sad and Xue Li was also not with us during the candid shot for the sec4 photo, leaving me and Gena together. And we really did that stupid thing of putting the trombone bell on our head as if it was our hat. LOL. Actually, Mr Wong has done this action before but it's just that he did it with Unity sec and I happened to see it on their blog. I wanted to do it too cos I thought it would be really fun. And yeah, we did it ! But without Xue Li :( And Phyllis actually took out the band fund that she was supposed to keep safely as a pose for the candid photo! I think everyone's attention will be on the cash when the photo is developed. Haha.

Oh, it was also scary during the band photo shoot with all the band members. All the sec4s were supposed to be on the bench, where the guys and girls will each take one side of the bench to sit. But the problem is there were many more girls than boys so having no choice, some girls have to go over to the boys' side to have the picture taken. I went to the seat late and by the time I reached there with May, everybody seems to have occupied all the seats, leaving no space for us. Suddenly, May got some space and she went there to sit and I was so sad cos I wante to sit with her for the photo shoot. We have been sitting together for the past 3 years and I wanted this year to be of no exception esp when this is our final year!

The lady in charge of the photo shoot actually told me to stand with all the other sec2,3 girls behind the sec4 band ppl. I was like so shocked cos I am sec4 ! I wna sit in front and by then, I was the only sec4 with no space to sit. I wanted to explain to her and phew ! At this moment, May managed to squeeze some space out for me and we still managed to sit together in the end ! :D

There were a lot of formal shots which I don't understand why. We took like at least 4 to 5 shots for it?

Because we could not wear our old band uniform for the sec4 photo plus the fact that Charissa did not join us for the photo shoot as she didn't bring her gown but only her old band uniform, we decided to change out into our old band uniform and take pictures! It was really fun and we took loads of pictures! You can go to Xue Li's blog and take a look! She posted some of our pictures on her blog !

I love my trombone section! :D

I know what is the musical fountain renamed as already !!!

It's renamed as " Songs of the Sea" !


P.S. I saw only one sports car today. It's a gray one. Haha!

Thursday, June 21, 2007

Our standard of living is indeed very high. No wonder we are placed 5th in Asia and 12th in the world for the list of countries with the highest standard of living. We are even ahead of New York!

Know why am I saying this? Cos i saw 18 sports cars on the road today! Yes, 17! I saw 7 on my way to school this morning in my dad's car and my journey to school always takes about 10-15 minutes. Which means, on the average, I would see one sports car within 2 minutes! The first one i saw was a yellow one, and then the next a red, and another yellow! So i thought the 4th sports car i see would be a red one again, just to follow the pattern you see. But it turned out that the next 3 cars i saw were black, black and black! So among the 17 cars, i saw 7 on my way to school, 1 while walking out of school with Gena, 2 while waiting for the bus and the remaining 8 from Parkway all the way back to my home! Singaporeans are really rich indeed huh.

So the order of the colours of the cars that I see were like this :

1. Yellow
2. Red
3. Yellow
4. Black
5. Black
6. Black
7. Blue
8. Black
9. Gray
10. Black
11. Gray
12. Black
13. Silver
14. Red
15. Red
16. Black
17. Dirty Green
18. Red

So the most popular colour for sports cars is black (according to those that I have seen today) so guys out there, if you do want a colour that is something different, never choose black or even red (this is quite popular too!) Perhaps you could take pink? Or purple? LOL!

So I was saying I walked out with Gena out of school yeah. We were at the library at first with Joanne after our Chemistry lesson cos I wanted to complete my Chinese test. And hooray! I am only left with 1 comprehension test to do ! I completed one and I am so tired and shagged to do another one. So I let Joanne use cos she couldn't log in at home due to the mistake that the teacher told us in our holiday assignment that the password is our NRIC when the password is actually 'password' !

I went to do mind-map with Gena and we completed the Northern Ireland and a bit of Sri Lanka. Gena and Joanne have completed doing the WWI mind-map so we are going to pass the mind maps around so that each of us can copy it into our own paper cos those that we have drawn are just some drafts.

We left at around 3 plus and we were deciding where shall we go for lunch. So i suggested bak chor mee at the coffeeshop ouside our school. But Gena said " I don't want bak" So imagine bak chor mee without bak.. just like ice-kachang without kachang -.- And this really happened before! It happened when my mum was queuing at this particular dessert stall. The Caucasian in front of her actually told the hawker this " Can i have ice-kachang without kachang please?" Ice-kachang without kachang?! Might as well just ask for ice ! LOL!

However, Gena decided to have bak chor mee in the end. So we went there but unfortunately, the stall didn't open today. So we ended up at 7-11 where i ate pasta while Gena took instant noodles. We stayed there till about 4 plus before she went home to take her tuition file while I went to Popular @ Parkway to get the 'O' level oral book. The book is out of stock there so I am gonna try my luck tomorrow at United Square's outlet cos tomorrow I will be going with my Mum to take the new Rhino bus ! It's different from the Hippo bus cos there isn't any open top but i heard from my mum that it's like theatre seating inside and there is a big screen TV inside! The TV is not going to show any Channel5 or Channel8 programmes but things like the history of Singapore blah blah.. And we will also be visiting the musical fountain which is now renamed as some other thing which i can't rmb. I will blog it down here once I rmb though!

And oh! When I was walking back home today, there were 2 boys playing basketball at the basketball court and there was also this boy that was cycling round the basketball court. I think he is kinda sway cos when the boys threw the basketball, the ball accidentally hit the cyclist when it dropped down. So sway of the cyclist to be at that area at that time yeah? Then the friend of the boy whose ball hit the cyclist said " Eh, li ming shun di er dai" , that means the next generation of Christopher Lee. I think he's trying to talk about his hit-and-run accident. But it's rly weird. For Christopher Lee's side, it was the person who hit the victim, which is him that ran away after hitting but in the case of the boys just now, it was the VICTIM who cycle away from the " scene of accident" . Makes no similarity with the Christopher Lee's case at all!

By the way, Christopher Lee is also so poor thing. He had to be imprisoned for another 2 weeks after a month in jail and he paid quite a huge sum to the victims. He sold his car at a loss and his PR citizenship is also at risk now. ( I don't know if the PR issue has been settled cos i didn't follow up his story) Poor thing yea? Just one accident and so many things happened after that.

Choices have consequences~

the amath retest was not exactly a test at all. it was just like a practice for everyone who was present today. it was not held like a test either because there were too many ppl who failed amath so we were like just sitting next to each other and the gap between me and the next person is so close.

the paper was like yet easy and difficult. looks difficult to comprehend but after listening to the teacher's explanation, it was like so much easier! i just felt so silly as to why i had not thought of the answer at first. i guess that's when we need teachers.. teachers to help us find out what we have missed out in the question. and that went on from 9 to 12. a whole solid 3 hours of amath! my brain was saturated with all the maths stuff by the time i left the lecture theatre. it was so tiring and joanne kept on complaining that her butt hurts from the 3 hours of seating! haha!

i rented 'just follow law' vcd today! didn't manage to catch it when it was screened at the cinemas so i had to rent it today. hopefully it had be a nice movie! i have heard ppl say that it's not too bad :)

tml could be section outing! yeah. jacie and jessica seem to be planning a movie outing, instead of our usual KBOX outing. haha! i have always wanted to go to the marina square outlet but till now haven't had the chance yet. sigh. but it's okay. movie should be quite fun too! :D but details are not confirmed yet.. hopefully there will be one!

but if there's one, it also shows that i have to speed up on my holiday hw cos i have not finished all yet. i still have a lot of humanity hw not done yet !!!

this june holidays is not at all fun.

OHMYGOD OHMYGOD!! I was uber sad just now when i found out kaiyi will be going overseas to study! cos i thought we could enter the same jc next year and have fun together! just so happened i was sms-ing her to wish her a happy birthday although it's already one day late so i decided to check with her personally. and phew, she said she might not be gng but she is not sure. i know there is still a possibility of her going but at least there is also a chance that she might not be gng! do i sound selfish? but if she were to go, she will have to go there alone cos her family will not be migrating there and that's sad surviving in a foreign land on your own..

ah, better gear myself up and mug rly hard to get into the same jc as kaiyi. i hope tricia,kaiyi,me and maybe candice will get into the same jc (provided if candice drops out of her ip programme). that had be fun! it will be like gng back to pri sch days !!

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

yesterday was father's day! i went to take the dhl balloon with my parents ytd! we managed to get our tickets at half price off, thanks to mummy's company selling the tix! yeah! the balloon was rly HUGE! i had to move back quite a distance just to capture the whole big dhl balloon on my phone! we had to wait for quite a while before the whole activity could start due to the srtong wind. so i sat there and did a bit of sudoku. and i cant believe this. i actually cant solve the sudoku puzzle which was published on the lifestyle section of the sunday newspaper. and till now, i am still stuck! i was so angry with myself plus with all the hol hw that i have not done, i decided to chunk it aside first. maybe i will do it later when i am in a good mood :)

and oh, our ride was at 6pm. we waited for like nearly an hour for the 7-10min ride. but i think it was worth the wait cos up there, the scenery was just magnificent! how i wish we could stay there longer!! we went up to as high as 40 storeys!! and mummy bought some pickled ginger up cos she was afraid that she might throw up by all the giddiness she might have as we take off high up in the sky. LOL! up there at 40storeys high, the cars below are just like small lil toy cars and ahead of you, you will be able to see the highway where all the lil toy cars are travelling and behind the highway, is the azure sea !! wow! it was beautiful! took some snapshots up there and very soon we were down, back to the ground again.

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

tml is amath retest ! ahh!
