i finalllly go tmy tagboard right. hip hip hooray!

ok. enough nonsense. so im done with 6 papers! yippie! 11 more to go. well, it does seems to be a lot but counting by the hours, i guess its still okay. im not planning to spend so much time on chem so ya, it'll save me from quite some torture. (mum said it was okay if i din do well. once in a lifetime thing. but she understands why. still im gonna do my but and study just enough for a pass.=) that'll be enough i guess. so far, i think i did quite all right for english paper 1, e maths paper 1. as for chinese and lit and ss and a maths paper 1, im not too confident though. ss- i could do the seq well sort of but i couldnt quite get the meaning for sbq so.. chinese paper 1 was hilarious. i chose the formal letter to writing. and the question had something to do with burglary or sth like that. i saw po men and i din understand the 2 words behind but i thought it din matter. so i wrote sth like asking the police? to get the doors fixed or sth. i was practically laughing at myself when i realised my mistake. luckily, i checked the dicioinary and wasted most of my liquid cancelling all my mistakes, phew, i had time. still, my chinese is not strong so not high expectations set. for lit today, i totally didnt study just read the book like a storybk. wrote crap totally. a maths disappointed quite a bit though. din know how to do a couple of questions which i was suppose to know. well last time. i dont think i'll do well but i guess i will settle for a pass. there's still paper 2 so i HOPE i do better. =) im gonna rest today cos im feeling really exhausted from all that studying. im not the only one i guess. haa. enough bout exams. back to more happy stuff or rather sad. i dont know. sth just came into my mind and i looked up on it, felt kinda sad.

i read the IN issue-forgot which week- and the back page was always filled wuth statistics and stuff. there was this question that said that the singapore american school is the largest in the world. i dont know why but i somehow felt a sense of pride. i was from that school once when it was still in the old campus thats still sround located just beside my house. now it has moved to woodlands. taht was since 1996 though. kinda long ago. but come to think of it, time passes real fast. so ya, i was free and there wasnt much to do so i decided to have a look at the website and see how it has changed. i guess i did the wrong thing in having a look at it. it really reminds me of past memories and makes me wonder whether i am heading the path that i want to go. i looked at one of the videos and i told myself, i really wish i had continued to study there, looking at the wonderful campus and all the people there. i knew why my parents din let me continue. school fees. i saw teh receipts with my own eyes. they're still in a drawer in my room. i can easily say that 1 term cost about 10000 bucks. imagine that. and i cant believed i schooled there for about 2-3 yrs. suddenly, i felt that i was really much fortunate than some of my friends, even my brother. he went to pap while i went to an international school for preschool and kindergarten. at the same time i was going to maris stella. i still remember the lively schedule i had while going to 2 schools. in the morning, i would go to sas, home, nap then maris stella. it was really fun though. swimming lessons, art lessons..etc. i still have some of the stuff which i made while in there including a teachers letter. i thionk some of you might have seen it. so this whole looking at the website thing made me remember all of my past, my education and other stuff. i really do wish to go back there,, tehy cater to those from grade 1 all teh way to 12. if i joined now, i would be in grade 10-high school. haiz.

i shall post some pictures another time. its time for dinner now. mum and dad are coming back tomorrow evening. missed them quite a bit. life's actually quite boring without tehm around. anyway, till next time toodles!

ps. i was scared of halloween when i was young. i dressed up as a bunny rabbit in sas. brought home a pumpkin. memories.
