Here's what's happened in the past 8 days....

Friday- I went to watch Spiderman 2 with Viv last Friday.. .and I love it!!! It's better than the first movie, very dramatic... you really feel for Peter Parker coz his life had a lot of disappointing twists... but it all turned out well in the end. So that's 2 spiderman movies down and 7 more to go. Whoa.

Saturday- Had an English and A maths test... the A maths paper was pretty tough... i forgot how to differentiate the trigo functions... and got stuck for quite a few questions... hope I can pass! Went for an orthodontist appointment, tightened my braces, changed the bands to blue and green. At night, my family (except my bro coz he was workin) went to my uncle's house for dinner, which was pizza, salad, chicken and some potato dish. Couldn't eat much coz my teeth hurt after tightening braces... *sniff* but had some pizza anyway. Watched Treasure Planet,  took pics with my cuz to finish off the film in my camera.
 
Sunday- Woke up early and went to the airport to send my Uncle off coz he was going back to London. He came to visit my gran and was my godparent at confirmation. Then ate breakfast with my parents and my other uncle and his family. My lil 5 yr old cuz bought breakfast from BK just coz he wanted the scrambled eggs, and didnt touch the rest of the food. Hehe. Went home and then went for 12.30 mass in church. Recognised a few people but didnt see my good friends... but I'll see them next Sat! Yay! After mass I headed to TM to get eyedrops and then spent the rest of the day home.

Monday- School again...nothing much happened except Kenneth and another friend quarreled and  stopped speaking to each other. English prelim orals after school... it was pretty easy... but I didn't have much to say for the picture. After that I went home to take a nap, had dinner and went for tuition. Typical monday.

Tuesday- Kenneth and friend still not on good terms... awkward tension between them throughout the whole day. Both didn't come to the canteen during lunchtime so I went up to see what they were doing and found them arguing again. Watched the Smallville finale at night... I didn't quite understand why Chloe's house exploded and Lex got choked on a drink. I can't believe it ended like that... hope the next season starts soon so I can find out what happens.

Today- Kenneth and friend still angry at each other, but became friends again at lunch. Then Kenneth was mad at me coz he said I was talking bad about him when he was around, when I was just relaying his view of the argument to the other party so they could try and reach a settlement. But later he apologised so the group's still together... but we've all started drifting apart a lil. Hope we don't lose contact after graduation. Had a Geography test today too... I concentrated on plantations, but the question was on market gardening. After school I was really tired so decided not to go for tuition... called my tutor to go this sunday instead but there was no space so I hafta go three times next week... argh!

That's basically what happened for the week. Pretty long, huh?

Tomorrow's Racial Harmony Day! I'll be wearing the kebaya that Faz lent me... thanks Faz! =)
In focus is cancelled, so we can go back at 1.50. Good thing too, staying back until 4.35 is exhausting! I'm so mentally tired at the end of the long school day that I just feel blank. Maths tuition twice a week at night doesnt help. Oh well it's just a few months more of hanging in there, and then we graduate... kinda sad actually... I'll still come back next year to see my cca and stuff.
 
Ok then it's back to the books for me... physics and maths test tomorrow. I find probability pretty easy, it's physics I'm really worried about.. I don't get the cathode ray oscilloscope! Help!

There's a place off Ocean Avenue
Where I used to sit and talk with you
We were both 16 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all night
Staying up all night
 
There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet
We were both 18 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all night
Staying up all night
 
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
 
There's a piece of you that's here with me
It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see
When I sleep, I dream and it gets me by
I can make believe that you're here tonight
That you're here tonight
 
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
 
I remember the look in your eyes
When I told you that this was goodbye
You were begging me not tonight
Not here, not now
We're looking up at the same night sky
And keep pretending the sun will not rise
Be together for one more night
Somewhere, somehow
 
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away

Arts Fest is almost over... I voted for Genevieve for Tampines Idol... Christopher was also pretty good but I thought Genevieve had more spunk... and I like the song she sang, 'Can't Fight the Moonlight'

To go or not to go to the Arts Fest concert tomorrow? I have an english mock exam in the morning... then inter-disciplinary day which is supposed to be compulsory but they didn't say anything about the sec 4 express so I'm not going... I wanna sleep... hehe. I don't have a ticket for the concert, but Mrs Cheng said she'll get me in... I'm not sure if she meant I sneak in or she'll get me a tic... so I dunno if I'll even be allowed in... ok I'm just going on and on about nothing coz I've nothing to blog about... so I'll stop here.

Sometimes I'm kinda embarrassed to be a student in TPSS. During recess yesterday a lil stage was set up on the canteen for the finalists of Tampines Idol (the things my school comes up with...) to give a preview of their performance, and the moment they started singing almost everyone booed. How mean can ppl get? It's not easy to get up there in front of everyone, at least give support rite? Their singin wasn't bad anyway... if the booing peeps think their better,why don't they sign up for the competition. I always wonder why people behave like that. Why bring people down for no reason?

Nothing special happened today... had physics n bio practical, my teacher sang during mother tongue, relative velocity is getting harder, we finished the chem syllabus... yeah. Pretty boring...

I'm supposed to give some speech tomorrow during the assembly tomorrow about Arts Fest. I don't think there's anything to say about it! Help! I think I'll just tell Mrs Choon I'll do it another day... judging by recess yesterday, I'll probably get booed of the stage anyway.

My inner child is sixteen years old today

My inner child is sixteen years old!


Life's not fair! It's never been fair, but while
adults might just accept that, I know
something's gotta change. And it's gonna
change, just as soon as I become an adult and
get some power of my own.


How Old is Your Inner Child?

Oh yeah I forgot...all the confirmation photos can be found Here.
Been really busy lately,but I think confirmation's worth blogging about. :)

After waiting for a long time,4th July finally came...woke up at 8,had breakfast,showered,got dressed and everything...then took a few photos and headed for church!

Once I got there,I found my class...Jim,Viv n Adora were already there..sat with viv for a while then went to sit with my godfather coz he was by himself.Fiona gave us each a necklace with a pendant with a dove on it,and cards with each of the gifts of the holy spirit.Thanks Fiona!Deb came and sat behind me and gave us a small gift..thanks Deb!Since I'm saying thank yous now,I'd also like to thank my aunt for getting me a white gold neckclace with a cross from England. :D We took loads n loads of pictures outside to pass the time.Then after some waiting we lined up with our godparents and went up to the main church.

We practised this song in church and then the Archbishop arrived.Actually 2 Archbishops arrived.Then mass started.It was pretty much like a normal mass,except for the renewal of our baptismal sins before the homily,the laying of hands and the anointing with chrism oil.The oil smelt really nice,like lavender.I had a big smile throughout the mass..finally confirmed!After mass we took class pics and some other pics..then everyone went home...so now confirmation's over...gonna miss everyone..but hopefully can still meet up yeah?K well thats pretty much it...ciao
