A falling table
Two days ago I had this weird dream where I had a conversation with someone, I can't remember who. I can't remember the contents of the conversation but it lasted for a really long time. Like three quarters of the dream revolved around that conversation, and then suddenly a table fell from the sky and killed the person I was talking to. And then I felt really sad so I went home in a hot-air balloon.

Ha.

Uh. Promos is ending next Monday with my favourite subject other than German. And there's so much things to do after promos that somehow I wish promos isn't ending so soon.

...

NAH. I was joking. I can't wait for it to be over, oval, square, triangle, rectangle, pentagon, hexagon.

It's 9.48pm and I aren't sleeping because my mother wants me to wake up later tomorrow so that she can save on breakfast. -.- HA. So she said I should sleep as late as I can so that I won't wake so early tomorrow.

Okay. I want to bleach. And X-family. Bye bye.

Actually. The point of this post is. What? You think I'm going to say there's no point again? Come on lah, I'm more creative than that right. So I was saying, the point of this post is to tell you about the weird dream that I had two days ago and maybe you can tell me what it means or tell me you had the same dream so that I know the person I was talking to and died of a falling table is you. And so I will stop trying to figure out who it is. That person must be someone I know because it felt familiar. But I've thought of all people possible and I. Still. Can't. Think. Of. Anyone. Who might die of a falling table.

Okay talk too much. Bye bye.

Last Words
My last words:

I want to thank my parents for raising me up and for being the best parents in the world; my siblings for always being nice to me; my friends; the ice cream man that always come around on Saturdays and Sundays; Jay for being the best boyfriend ever (HAHA); Jay my pet tortoise who died last week; my bed for being with me when I'm dreaming; the air-con in my room for keeping me cool; the computer; Youtube; and last but not least, Sandy.

If anything untoward happens to me in the course of PROMOS, I'll also like to thank everybody who bothers to read this crap when promos is so near you can almost touch it, and actually believing that I'm dumb enough to want to seek death. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Okay, crap.

Promos start tomorrow with an Econs paper. I always love Econs. :D And then it's Maths. I love Maths too (starts sounding doubtful). And then it's Chemistry and of course I love Chemistry! (sounds very doubtful). And finally, make a guess! Yea, of course it's the ever lovely and cute subject called Physics. I love that to bits. (sounds extremely doubtful).

Okay bye bye. I'll blog again if I'm still alive after promos.

Sometimes
Sometimes I don't know what I'm doing, where I'm going, what I really want, and what I'll actually get. Feels like a soccer game where many people chase after the same ball, running like mad, just that there aren't any goal posts. Or rather I don't see any goal posts. But we just keep running, and chasing the ball in case we see the goal post anytime soon.

Sometimes I sit at the bus stop near my house and stare at the sky. Sometimes I forgot to board the bus. Sometimes I wonder if it's worth doing anything at all.

Sometimes, like today, I feel like there's got to be something better I can do with my life.

Life? I don't have a life.

No lah. I'm not stressed. Promos, so what? I won't die if I fail promos. You just have to sit still and think, and you'll realise there're a thousand worse scenarios than failing promos you can be in. Besides, even if I ace promos (won't hurt to dream for 2 minutes right), even if I ace A's (HEY SOUNDS CUTE. ACE A'S!), even if I get some degree that only people who mug like shit can get, and even if I come out to work and become damn successful, it doesn't really mean anything. Because that's not what I want.

And that's the problem you see. I don't know what I want.

Okay fine, other than the 7 kids, I don't know what I want.

Sometimes, like today, or yesterday, since it's already past 12midnight (OMG!!!!), I forgot what I wanted to say. You know, I really hate long sentences because they go on and on and by the time you read the last part of the sentence, you kind of forgot what the first part of the sentence says and if you don't believe me I can try it out right now because as you can see, this sentence is so long I bet you've already forgotten what I started the sentence with and if you think you know, you must be wrong because I'm always right since I'm right-handed and although you may also be right-handed, I'm definitely more right-handed than you because I've got two right hands now that's obviously a joke and anyway, can you understand my point of how irritating long sentences are?

That's why I hate long problem sums. I've a damn short memory span, for things that aren't important. (I'm implying that Maths is not important. Duh.)

Okay. I sound sad. So, bye bye. I'll blog again when I'm happier. :(

Random
I've been sleeping so late these days I think I'm going to drop dead soon.

Anyway, I don't feel like typing although I've lots to say. Especially about some chunying who's so slow and goes Harhhhhhh like Gu1 Gu1 in X-Family everytime I say something. It happens so often I started wondering if I actually spoke my best subject German. But then I wasn't. I was speaking ENGLISH and CHINESE and sometimes Hokkien. And those are supposed to be her best subjects, not mine. (Mine is German.) So I concluded that she has serious hearing problems and I've to go Hello? Hello? Can you hear me? And start waving at her to get her attention. At worst times, I've to speak with exaggerated accompanied actions.

Oh. And she laughs at my joke 5 hours after I said it. Which explains why she's always laughing, she just recalled some joke I told her last year.

Okay, so much for 'I don't feel like typing'.

Anyway



This is a really pretty picture I took some time this week or last week or maybe it's today or maybe it's yesterday when I was at Woodlands food court with chunying Gu Gu. See, Woodlands food court can watch sun set leh. So cute right.



And then this is the view from my house when it was sunset time yesterday. I don't know where the glow come from but the point is, there's no point again. (I've said this so many times I think it's not funny anymore. I'll try harder next time.)

Oh. And more than a week ago, it was my father's birthday and because he had been acting spastic and complaining about how he had never had anyone buy him a cake before, I bought him a cake which looks like this.



It isn't spastic because I'm afraid the shopkeeper will laugh at me if I buy a spastic looking cake and then write the words Happy Birthday Father. Anyway, it's yam and it's from Four Leaves. NAH JUST JOKING. Why will I buy a cake from Four Leaves. It's from Prima Deli and only the purple thing around the cake tastes good. -.- I don't know why there's grass on the cake too. Anyway, my father was so spastic he cut a really huge slice of cake for me. With the words "Shen Ti" on it. (The cake is 1kg, so a slice of Shen Ti is really alot.) And then he passed it to me saying "Nah, you can eat a body." ._. So. Not. Funny.

Oh. And then today I was studying Maths, again. And then I got really discouraged when I was going Graphing because a graph that looks like this



turned into this after transforming:



And it looks weird enough to convince myself that it is wrong.

Actually I drew in more bones in the body of the fish, plus a small circle for the eye in the circle. And then I really wish Jiaxiang will shang shen so that I can correct this fish into something that looks more like a graph. AH.

Okay I want to go watch X Family already.



Happy Mooncake Festival. I like fireworks. I am random, but I'm not gillian.

Okay bye bye. AND. I almost forgot. Wang Da Dong really looks weird. Ding Xiao Yu has eyes that are too big. Wang Ya Se's the cutest of the three. But Jay's still the best. Yay, chunying, I win. :D

I sound like I'm sleep talking. -.- Bye bye.

Promo is the name of an illness
I'm going to dream of some weird curves rotating around the y-axis to become a weird solid with a negative volume (who says volume can't be negative?) and negative lengths and whose pi value exceeds 6000.

I HATE MATHS.

Nah, I'm joking. I'm a Jiaxiang-wannabe. So of course I love Maths to bits.

I love Maths so much I'm considering loving the Maths teacher. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Econs paper in 7 days, Maths in 8, Chemistry in 9. Physics in 12. Best Children's Day present. A PHYSICS PAPER. Woo. I can't possibly ask for more (really).

Anyway.

I forgot what I wanted to say.

Oh, all that I remembered of the last few days are Woodlands library, chunying, Maths, Econs, Maths, Physics Jiu Yang Zhen Jing, bed, food court, Maths, very cold, CMY, Maths, photoshoot, free periods, GP paper, Maths, Maths dreams, Maths nightmares, Maths, Maths, shen's Maths, Maths, Maths...

Everyday is Woodlands library day with chunying who has been doing a great job in teaching me Maths. I think I can pass now. YAYYYYYYYY. And I've been teaching her Econs. And she still can't pass. YAYYYYYYYYYY.

I'm. Very. Sleep. Deprived.

And. I'm. Sad.

:(

Nah. I WAS sad. Not anymore! :D

Yea. I plunged right through and hit rock-bottom on Monday. I was so sad I wasn't excited at the sight of HL milk. Even my shoelaces were frowning. Guess why? That's a secret. Anyway, I was damn sad but then I studied Maths and then I got happier. Guess why? That's a secret too. Then after I got happier, I got even happier! Guess why? This is not a secret! But I'm not going to tell you all the same. Ey hey.

Sorry. I always turn weird when I'm sleep deprived.

I WANT PROMOS TO BE OVER NOW.

And! I must promote! Because I want to be an OGL next year! -.-

Okay bye bye. Sorry for wasting your time. But then again, I'm not really sorry (as always) and you're the dumb one, not me. Ey hey. :D

Time
I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine.

You know, I've been thinking, that it's not sleep that helps replenish our energy. Maybe it's because we shorten our days when we go to sleep. When you fall asleep, three men in black suits are elsewhere taking away your time. And so for those people who sleep early (like me), we actually only effectively live perhaps 18 out of 24 hours a day. Which is why we don't feel so tired. Because we only used up 18 hours of energy.

That's why for those that hardly sleep, the three men in black take away a smaller portion of your 24 hours. (They only take away a part of the time of your sleep.) And so you have to live longer a day, and use more energy that day. Which is why the next day you feel lethargic. And you use less energy in the same number of hours to make up for the loss yesterday.

Actually I came up with this because no matter how long I slept, I always feel that I didn't sleep that long. 10 hours of sleep feels like 8 hours, 8 hours feel like 6, and 6 hours feel like 4, 4 hours feel like I didn't sleep at all.

Or perhaps the three black men do not only take away our time during our sleep. They take away time when we least paid attention to it. Like why sometimes some lectures seem to end so quickly but in others, the seconds seem to take its time to stroll. Haven't you always felt that the second hand seems to deliberately move slower when you stare at it? And then when you're not paying attention, 60 minutes pass ever so quickly?

And then we came up with reasons to support these feelings, like "When you're hard at work, you don't realise time is passing" or "The lecturer talks so slow, of course time seems to crawl lah" or "Time always flies when you're enjoying yourself" etc. But why? Why can't it be our feelings are the ones that are right and someone (or some people, since it's three men in black) is really toying with our time?

For all you know, we may be just miniature toys that exist in some little boy's cupboard. You know, those cartoons that you watch, where the toys have a life of their own. Maybe we're that small. But we manifest everything. Maybe this little boy just happens to have a toy globe. And we're mini particles on that globe. Maybe everything that happens around us is not due to those scientific reasons we concluded ourselves. Maybe an earthquake happens merely because he shook the cupboard, or he tossed another toy into the cupboard and it hit the globe. Maybe we imagined the continental and oceanic plates moving.

Maybe you're already crazy. Maybe what's going on around you is your imagination. Maybe you're actually in an asylum, imagining a life of your own. Maybe all that you see is in your mind. Maybe you aren't even reading this now.

Another thing is, Micheal Tay said if a particle can exhibit wave properties, that is, squeezing through a hole very very very very very very much smaller that itself, it'll begin acting like a wave. And will be able to time travel. So does that mean waves time travel? So something I hear now may not be just said, and may have been said in the past or in the future? So I can hear something that hasn't been said yet?

And anyway, are humans particles? Then why is it that we can very naturally walk in the streets without having to collide with people very often? (You know, we learnt it in Chemistry and Physics that particles like to collide and then vibrate and blah blah blah.) Why is it that people have the ability to walk among a crowd without always having to bump into others? Why is it that when we walk, we know whether the person coming in our direction is going right or left? Why is it that two people who're walking in the same line, and will knock into each other if they continue in this direction, able to split into left and right without having to communicate at all?

I remembered back in Sec one, Mr Lim told us that there was this experiment where someone took two digital stopwatches, started both at exactly the same time, and then had one stopwatch on ground, and another stopwatch flying in an aeroplane all around. And at the end of the experiment, the stopwatch which was flying around showed a shorter time lapse than the one on ground. And then he stopped explaining further because he thought he was confusing us. -.-

Anyway, the point is.

There's no point again. When does my blog ever have a point. Dumb.

Okay. Sorry for wasting your time. ._. Bye bye.

Long post
It's a huge thing for me to be awake at 10.14pm because my 10.14pm feels like your 3.30am, seriously. And if you're wondering what I'm doing online when I can be asleep, I'm wondering too. Maybe it's because I finally finished the very famous 3 inequality questions that I took forever to get wrong answers (including the time I took swearing). You know, when I finished those three questions with correct answers yesterday, I was literally smiling to myself because I've never been so damn happy before.

But then there's question 4. And 5. And 6. And many many more. BUT. Surprise! I finished inequalities already. WOO. Okay, but it's with the help of Sheralyn's copy. And anyway, I loaned Hongjie's (the last person who topped Maths Lecture test 3) copy of the revision package and I realised the number of pieces of paper he used in total is equal to the number of pieces of paper I used for 2 out of 7 topics I've done.

...

Not because I'm redundant. It's because he saves on paper. And his paper doesn't have lines. So with his tiny handwriting he can really write alot on one piece of paper. And some of the graphs he was lazy to draw. And because I use two lines for every fraction. Okay I'm deluding myself.

STUDIES ASIDE. Let's talk about something else. But then again, there's not much to talk about at this time of the year because we're all stuck to books. Shit.

Anyway, Priscilla tagged me to do some lame quiz which I don't really feel like doing because half the quiz is about how I think of Priscilla. -.- Lol. Oh but she'll be sad. BUT WHO CARES. LALALALALALALA.

Okay fine. It's 10.22pm and I can't bear to end of this entry with LALALALALA although my current situation with promos in one week time is really quite LALALALALALA. SHIT.

It's a really long quiz by the way.

1. person who tagged me-
Priscilla Koh Su Hua. She has the same chinese name as my mother. But she's not my mother, obviously. She's born in July and I'm born in April in the same year. And since my mother can't be born later than me, she's not my mother. (I know I didn't have to explain in detail. But I've done it already. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I don't know why I laughed.)

2. my relationship with her-
She's really not my mother.

3. my 5 impressions of her-
One - She laughs in the Priscilla way. She'll cover her mouth with her right hand and her head will tilt backwards. My phrasing sounds really weird because I'm not really thinking.
Two - She's always laughing at Alfred. Don't deny it Priscilla.
Three - She's a motherly sister. Like what, she fetches her younger sister to and fro school. And she's always staying at home to take care of her sister. And her sister treats her like god. Okay not really. But she's very motherly. NO SHE'S NOT MY MOTHER. -.-
Four - She watches a movie once every 55 years.
Five - She loves 10A1s.

4. most memorable thing that she had done for me-
Most memorable? Uhhhhhhh. Oh. She made a birthday card for me either last year or last last year where she wrote the words "This is not a birthday card" all over the cover. Uh. If you want to count something more memorable, maybe... She laughs at my jokes? Yea.

5. most memorable words that she said to me
-"You got it." Complete with the index finger pointing at me and the very Priscilla (aka qian da) grin.

6. if she becomes my lover, i will?-
Kill myself.

7. if she is my lover, she has to improve on-
Nothing. I said I'll kill myself.

8. if she becomes my enemy, i will-
Eat cheesecake. I feel like eating cheesecake.

9. if she becomes my enemy, the reason is-
She ate my cheesecake.

10. the thing that i desire most to do for her now is-
Buy her a cheesecake. I know she feels like eating a cheesecake too.

11. my overall impression of her-
Hasn't I answered the 5 impressions? -.- Uh. My overall impression of her is that she's a very motherly sister who likes cheesecake. And kaya balls. And watches movie once every 55 years.

12. how do i think people around me will feel about me?-
The question is so weird that I refuse to answer it. I hate weird questions that make me think. Screw Physics.

13. the character i love about myself is-
I really thought damn hard for this question. I don't know. And anyway, oh. I forgot to photocopy something.

14. on the contrary, what character i hate about myself-
I laugh out loud at CMY too many times. That's kind of disrespectful. I'll change it as soon as possible. (Yea.)

15. the most ideal person i would like to be-
Right now, Jiaxiang. After promos is another story.

16. a message to those around me and those who care for me-
Uh. Hello.

17. pass this quiz to 10 people
(Actually it's just 10 people whose blogs I read)

1. Priscilla
2. Sokmui
3. Laimeng
4. Weeyang
5. gillian
6. Vanessa
7. Jaslyn
8. Fiona
9. Chunkit
10. Junjie

is no9 a male/female?
Male

if no1 and no10 be together, is it a good thing?
Of course. Junjie won some $3000 award the other time and Priscilla was crazy over him. But then it turned out to be Kino book vouchers. HA.

how about no3 and no4?
Laimeng and Weeyang? Nah. Laimeng has what, too many lining up already. And according to Laimeng, Weeyang is one of those 207541732817 scandals she says I have. So, yah.

what is no2 studying about?
Geography. Something I miss so much I wish I can hug it to sleep. AND LITERATURE. I miss Krishna so much. TRANSCENDENCE!

last time i chatted with no3?
4pm plus? I saw her at the bus stop and then I said Hi.

what kind of music does no8 have?
She only has noise. Oh and she completes the wedding march. LOL. And she likes to sing irritating songs so irritating that an ant cried because it had to listen to her.

no6 have any siblings?
Yea. 3 older brothers. I think. And one of them has very thick eyebrow. And is as spastic as she is.

will you woo no7?
Number 10 will woo her. :D

is no4 single?
He used to play doubles. I'm not sure about now.

surname of no5?
Png. Question is as random as gillian.

where's no3 studying?
NJ. The very grey place.

have you tried developing feelings for no8?
I tried. And then she started singing. So I ran away crying.

where does no9 live?
Queensway.

what colour does no4 like?
Lin Dan. Okay he's not a colour but whatever. -.-

does no7 like no2?
Yea. Otherwise Number 2 will have killed Number 7 by now.

how do you know no2?
She was the one who sat in front of me in Sec 1 and when we had icebreakers she said she doesn't like so say her name so she wrote it out. And then I told them my name and then told them how in primary school I wrote Ang Mo Kio as name and Ang Mei Gui as address and she was the first one to start laughing.

no5 have a pet?
Yea. Chemistry. So freaky.

DONE! :D

Promos
Holy.

It's so near to promos I can almost touch it. NO I DON'T WANT TO TOUCH IT.

I know Melissa/Jimmy has been saying she/he feels stressed after reading that entry I blogged about how many hours we're left to promos and she was so scared she ran to find Jiaxiang for comfort. No I'm not joking. She went to her shen (as she always say 'Jiaxiang is my shen') and they live happily ever after.

Okay fine I'm joking. Anyway she really has alot of redundant actions. Like nodding to herself when she does Maths or raising a finger like she thought of something and then realise that she's having her redundant-actions-syndrome again so she quickly drops her finger. But yah, she is really quite RA (Redundant Action-y). Okay enough, she'll get angry when she reads this. (Not that she's very scary when she's angry. But her shen may get angry and refuse to shang my shen the next Maths test. WHICH IS PROMOS. Shit.)

Anyway, I'll try my best not to think of promos otherwise I won't be able to sleep tonight because I'll start thinking of how I spent my September holidays doing three inequalities questions and not getting any of the three correct, or the fact that

I did not touch Physics.

Holy.

I'll go find some random Physics notes and touch every page of it later. And then maybe I'll take my father's suggestion to burn the notes, throw the ashes into a glass of water and then drink it like those talisman drink. Only then will something Physics get into me, except that it's abit too literally. Nevermind. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

But then, I've been mugging too much Econs, so much so that I think I can top NJ for Econs.

Holy, who am I kidding? Myself, lah. Okay what's the point of believing I can top Econs. Want dream also dream of something huge mah. (Not that topping Econs is not huge, but there's something huger.) Like topping Physics.

...

Okay, just saying the three words, like topping Physics, makes me want to laugh.

Maybe I can, after I burn the notes and drink its ashes with water.

So... Holy.

... Nevermind.

I thought of finding some tutor to tutor me Physics or Maths but then I realise it's dumb to hire a tutor for two weeks, expecting him or her to perform a miracle on a hopeless case. So I thought maybe I can save the situation by

HO LAN LAH. How can I possibly save myself?!!!!

Okay chill. Sleep first, think later. :D

Woodlands Polyclinic
Today's the typical Friday (read SUPER BAD DAY).

Woah. I tell you.

Okay I don't know where to start.

Uh. So yesterday I felt bad not studying for two days straight and the table was very messy and I was feeling guilty so I decided to pack the table and then I found alot of trash which I of course thrashed it, and I also found things like the bottle of tiger balm I thought I lost... Okay, anyway, the point is, while packing my table, I found the YLTC (Young Leaders' Training Camp) form and got a shock because I don't know where it came from. And then I sat there thinking for a long time where the form came from and started listing possible ways it could have landed on my table, like maybe I took somebody's form by mistake, or maybe my mother secretly studies at NJ, or maybe I printed that form while sleep-walking.

...

Anyway, I thought hard and realised! Laimeng passed me that form last Thursday, and I'm supposed to go to YLTC with her. Oh. So I filled in the form and because the form requires a photo, I went looking for a passport size photo in my drawer and the only photo I found is the one I used for my Ezlink card, aka the photo everyone says look like ah lian. (I am so not an ah lian can.) So I used that photo and then I filled up the rest of the form and when I turned the page, I realise I've to have some medical checkup.

The other time I went for OBS, I did the same checkup at Ang Mo Kio's polyclinic, after school one day. So I thought, the best place to go will be Woodlands polyclinic since I'm in Woodlands and it should be the most convenient place to go to.

RIGHT.

So. I heard from my mother, who brings my father to that polyclinic to buy his high blood pressure medicine every two months (that medicine costs $177, I thought polyclinics charge cheap medicine) that the polyclinic overflows with people in the morning. So I decided to go in late morning, at maybe 11.30am so that there'll be fewer people around. Moreover, it's a weekday so there should be less people there, right.

Anyway, I reached at 12pm and I was so happy because the polyclinic is practically empty. Okay then I realise the counters are empty too. -.- Uh. But anyway, I took a queue number, and sat down to wait for somebody to appear.

After like 10 minutes, the polyclinic is still empty so I started wishing for somebody to appear so that I won't appear weird in an empty polyclinic. And guess what! Somebody did appear. Okay, so this man appeared, asked me for my queue ticket, took my queue ticket, looked at it, gave me another queue ticket, and asked me to come back at 1.30pm.

Okay... I looked at my watch and I thought I saw the time as 1pm. BUT NO. It was 12pm. WTF?! Okay. So if I'm a sick person down with food poisoning, I've to sit here for one and a half hours OR MORE waiting for some doctor to prescribe me cheap medicine?!

-.- Okay, nevermind. Before I could even ask why, that man disappeared. As in, he walked away, not just disappeared, lah. You think what. -.- Uh. So I stood up and went looking for this strange man who gave me this mysterious queue ticket. And I found him, behind this small counter at a very deserted corner of the clinic. -.- And then I asked him why I've to come back at 1.30pm and he told me the queue of patients is so long that they temporarily close registration.

RIGHT. Long queue of patients. Tell me where's the long queue of patients MAN.

Anyway, being a good nice student, I said Okay. And then I couldn't stand staying in the deserted polyclinic any longer, so I went back to Causeway Point and had lunch with Chingwen. Then, at 1pm, I left Causeway Point and went back to that cursed clinic. Under the hot sun. Man, I could have melted.

When I reached, the clinic was really flooded with people. (I bet they've all been told to come back at 1.30pm.) So I sat there and waited for my turn to register. At 1.55pm, I finally got my turn. And the nurse at the counter is so anal I bet she's CMY's long lost sister.

M - Me
C - CMY's long lost sister

C: Who's the one seeing the doctor?
M: (OBVIOUSLY ALONE) Uh. Me?
C: IC?
M: (passes IC)
C: Read it out to me.
M: ER? S9013927D.
C: I mean your name.
M: ...Ang Mei Gui.
C: And your IC?
M: S9013927D.
C: HAIYOH. (I thought she knew me or something...) You got IC why don't want give me?
M: Ah? You asked me to read it out to you.
C: You didn't tell me you got what.
M: ... Then you wanted me to read what? If I don't have my IC, what do I read from?
C: You mean you don't know your IC from heart?
M: No, I know my IC number from heart. But that's not the point. If you didn't see my IC, then you were asking me to read what?
C: Read your IC number lah!

(At this point in time, I hope you understand my point of view. If she didn't see me PASS THE IC TO HER, what was she asking me to read? She should have said, What's your name, or What's your IC number? You get it right? It's not even that hard to understand what I'm saying, no?)

M: ...Okay nevermind.
C: Sick still can talk so much?
M: ...I'm here for checkup for camp. (shows form and health booklet)
C: (takes one look at form) You're sick lah?
M: No. I'm here for checkup.
C: Check what?
M: Up.
C: Sick then need check, right?
M: No.
C: Not sick then why see doctor?
M: CHECKUP.
C: Is sick or not?
M: ... Okay I'm sick.
C: Sick then sick lah! (murmur) Still say not sick... Sick then say earlier lah...

You tell me, won't you flare up if it's you.

C: You wait outside Room 8.
M: Where's it?
C: There. (NO POINTING OF DIRECTION).
M: -stun- Okay.

Luckily for me, my sense of direction is good enough for me to find Room 8. And I waited there for another half an hour before the doctor inside finally decided to see his first patient after his long break. So that person before me, after waiting for some 60 years, consulted the doctor for a brief 3 minutes, and then came out of Room 8. Wow.

And then it was my turn. You know, when number 2399 flashed on the neon sign, I felt so happy I could have died.

But then.

M - Me
D - Doc

D: Yes?
M: I'm here for checkup. For some camp.
D: What?
M: (Don't tell me he doesn't understand checkup too.) Check. Up. For. Camp.
D: Oh.
M: (hands over health booklet and form)
D: Oh. Oh.
M: ...
D: ...
M: ...
D: ...
M: ...

(I didn't type those dots to mean that we said alot of things. Those dots meant, we didn't say anything. Seriously.)

D: We don't do this kind of checkups here.
M: -stun- WHAT?
D: We don't provide such services.
M: But I did it at Ang Mo Kio's polyclinic before.
D: Really?
M: (Do I have to lie?) Yah?
D: (picks up phone to make a call)
M: (WTF?!?!!)
D: Oh, please go to the counter and tell the nurse. She'll get you another doctor.
M: -stun- Okay...

So. I went back to CMY's long lost sister.

M: Excuse me. The doctor you got me asked me to come back here to tell you to get me another doctor.
C: Why?
M: Because he says he doesn't do checkups.
C: What checkup?
M: (surprised that she actually knows the word checkup) Checkup for camp. (shows form)
C: HAIYOH. Why you never show me this just now?
M: ............... I did?
C: You didn't show me this then I thought you sick mah.
M: ................ I SHOWED YOU. AND YOU DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT I WAS SAYING.
C: You should have showed (should be shown) me. We don't do this kind of checkups here.
M: WHAT?
C: This kind you've to go private clinics.
M: But I did it before at Ang Mo Kio's polyclinic.
C: It's different.
M: How different?
C: We don't do this kind of checkups here.
M: Why does Ang Mo Kio's polyclinic have checkups but yours don't?
C: It's different.
M: WHY?
C: We don't have the facilities.

(Let me tell you what facilities you need. Basically you need a doctor, a pen, the blood pressure measuring thing, the clinic's stamp, oh and the doctor must be able to speak, and is able to read my health booklet. Yes, that's all the facilities you need.)

M: -stun- But the doctor said you'll get me another doctor.
C: No, we don't have doctors who do checkups.
M: -stun- What?
C: Our doctors don't do checkups.
M: ....... Okay.

And then I left. Time 3pm. Thank you for wasting 3 hours of my bright and vibrant youth teaching CMY's long lost sister the meaning of checkup.

.......

After that, I went to the family clinic that I always go to at Vista Point and met my favourite doctor, just two minutes after stepping into the clinic. He took my blood pressure, tested my right arm to make sure the fracture is healed, did eye check, tummy check, knee and ankle check, backbone check, chatted abit with me, asked me what subjects I take (it's the 3rd time he's asked me this, and he never remembers), signed that form, stamped it. And tadah it's done.

Why did I even bother going Woodlands Polyclinic.

Fridays suck.

Anderson!
Kind of lag but I just realise it's September already.

Every year this month I'll be very high. CAUSE JAY HAVEN'T RELEASE HIS ALBUM FOR THIS YEAR.

And he always does it in August/September. :D :D :D

Oh. And since I'm so high, I decided to give myself a well-deserved break from mugging. (I know it's not really well-deserved, lah. -.-) Aha. :D

Anyway.

I miss Anderson.

I miss the parade square, miss standing right in front, getting freaked out by those millipedes and hiding behind Nathanael halfway through the national anthem. Uh, that's not really worth missing. Ha, anyway, I miss morning assembly. Where every Monday I've to borrow tie from Haobo. EH. THAT'S NOT WORTH MISSING TOO. -.- Uh. I miss counting the number of people in fourone every morning and then telling Mrs Yeo people absent where she will then roll her eyes at me.

... That's not really worth missing too.

Uh. I miss climbing the steps in the upper sec block. OH. I miss the water cooler outside the toilet that you've to on and off the switch below otherwise the water won't stop flowing. (And how come no one ever repairs it harh.) And the toilet door that slams so hard it scares Huiming. And walking with Vanessa and Aaron and Hanhui one whole round round the block so that we'll go back abit later for Literature. Ha.

I miss Spiky telling me fourone is his 7-11 because he always come in to take noticeboard pins. I miss drawing in Priscilla's handbook during English lessons. I miss counting down to recess. I MISS THE FRUIT JUICE UNCLE. Haaaa. He knows I like honeydew fruit juice. Ha. And I miss scolding that Sec3 who cut our queue (and then he started appearing everywhere everyday, and gillian and chunying find that very funny).

I really miss sleeping in SS. And having no one to wake me up. And laughing at Mdm Has's string. And watching gillian go crazy during Physics. And talking cock with Hanhui throughout Literature, and then forcing him to pay attention during Chinese. HA. I still remember how he was made to stand up and read a CHINESE passage. The class died laughing.

I miss how Nat erased everything but the 'x's on the board after Maths. Lol. I MISS MDM WONG. HAHAHAHAHAHA. -.- Lol. I miss how she'll purposely leave something in fourthree and then make chunying go get it for her. And vice versa. HA. I miss watching Mr Ng make fun of Mdm Wong's height. LOL.

And how can I forget. I MISS MRS THERESA LIM!!!!!! :D :D :D :D Okay I doubt she remembers me already. But she's one of the many fantastic teachers I've ever had. (And guess what, I still have the Timeout she gave me for my birthday last year. Abit gross but yah. HAHA.) I miss her Geography essays. :D

I actually miss EFL. I can't believe it either.

I miss AVT, GO (it's the place with the least number of millipedes, but still have lor), the science labs. :D I miss playing Captains' Ball every PE lesson. I miss playing Boggle in the library at night. I MISS GEORGE. Hahaha. I miss the gu du lao ren. LOL. I miss being rude to the mean security guard too. :)

And!

I miss Anderson Badminton Team!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D

I miss the crap poem Fiona and I created about Cheng Jiao Lian. HAHAHAHAHA. And I miss Weeyang dancing, and Yongyuan giving him the weird look. I miss that cute couple Wilson and Yongkiat. I miss Jaslyn laughing at Ruth, and Jaslyn laughing at Joan, and Jaslyn laughing at Jenna. Actually Jaslyn laughs at everybody. Lol. I miss laughing at her about her Campbell soup. (Junjie cooks, but don't need add salt. HAHAHA.) I miss the nth number of Bridge sessions. MY BEST BRIDGE PARTNER Weeyang! Haha. I miss zhuai-ing with Weeyang. Against Joan and Jaslyn. Then against Jaslyn and Spiky. :D

I miss setting up courts in Anderson. Where all the poles have wheels. -.-

I miss having exams in the aircon hall. :D I miss Kakei raising up his hand to ask can he take 9 pieces of paper instead of 8. And Mdm Wong laughing at him. I miss our principals! Mrs Tan was great, so was Mrs Poh! :D Ha, and I miss the very shuai Mr Ari. :D (Who came into twosix classroom after school one day and asked if we're having a nice game when he saw us playing cards. LOL.) And I miss Home Econs lessons where Abel does everything and I just sit there and wait for the food to be cooked. :D

I miss painting banners in Anderson! :D

In short, I MISS ANDERSON!

My. I wish I'm Sec4 again.

一路上有你
一路上有你(国)/分手总要在雨天(粤) - 周杰伦

你知道吗
爱你并不容易
爱需要很多勇气
是天意吧
让我爱上你
但你却离我而去

晨曦细雨
重临在这大地
人孤孤单单躲避
转身刹那
在这熟识的路旁
察觉身后路人是你

也许轮回里早已注定
今生就该我还给你
一颗心在风雨里
飘来飘去
都是为你

一路上有你
苦一点也愿意
就算是为了分离与我相遇
一路上有你
痛一点也愿意
就算这辈子注定要和你分离


晨曦细雨
重临在这大地
人孤孤单单躲避
转身刹那
在这熟识的路旁
察觉身后路人是你

也许轮回里早已注定
今生就该我还给你
一颗心在风雨里
飘来飘去
都是为你

总要在雨天
逃避某段从前
但雨点偏偏促使这样遇见

总要在雨天
人便挂念从前
在痛哭拥抱告别后从没再见

Pretty Woodlands skies
Sometimes, people take what I say as a joke when I really meant what I say. :(

Anyway.

Past few days were spent in Woodlands library. It's a fantastic place because it's damn quiet at night. (Okay, all libraries are supposed to be quiet, day or night. But the fact that it's in Woodlands makes me happy. Ha.)

Have been studying with:
Friday - Alone! :D
Saturday - chunying!
Sunday - Jimmy/Peter!
Today - gillian!

The weather's perfect for anything you want to do. It's not too sunny, or rainy. Lots of clouds, wind and it's damn cold. :D

Anyway.

The other day when studying with chunying at MFP (My Favourite Place), I took pictures of the pretty sky in Woodlands. :)

We studied from



Clear sky to



Going to rain sky to



Raining sky to



Raining very heavily sky to



Clear sky again to



Night sky!

Aha.

Oh, and then yesterday on my way home, THE SKY WAS DAMN PRETTY CAN.





I was in the bus. :) So pretty right. There's blue, dark blue, white, yellow, purple! How cute.

Uh.

Bye bye.

-.-

Maths
Let's do some Maths.

Since promos in NJ officially starts on Week 2 of Term 4 with a holy GP paper, I have 17 days left to the start of promos.

And since I've to have at least 12 hours of sleep a day, assuming I sleep only 12 hours a day, I have

17/2 = 8.5 days left to the start of promos left to study.

And because out of these time left, I've to spend time eating, bathing, and traveling to Woodlands library aka the only holy place I can study, time left is even shorter. Assuming I spend 15 minutes on each meal, that's 45 minutes a day on food, and another 30 minutes to bathe twice a day, and another half an hour to travel to and fro Woodlands library, I've to take off 1 hour and 45 minutes each day.

Therefore,

Time left to the start of promos = (8.5 X 24) - (8.5 X 1.75) = 204 - 6.75 = 197.25 hours

Which is 8.21875 days left.

And out of these 8.21875 days, rounding off to 8 days, I've to study for 4 H2 subjects.

So on average, I've 48 hours to study for each holy H2 subject.

And the remaining 5.25 hours I'll leave it to read newspaper so that I'll no fail GP.

Okay, so now we talk about the 48 hours.

For Maths, there's a total number of 18 topics to learn (note, not study, LEARN). So.

48/18 = 2 hours and 40 minutes for each topic

And I'm trying to ignore the fact that I took 2 hours to do three inequalities questions yesterday, out of which I got none correct.

So. You think I'm only screwed for Maths?

For Physics, there's a total of 14 topics, Chemistry 16 topics. And that's 3.42 hours per topic for Physics and 3 hours per topic for Chemistry.

AND. I haven't even taken into account the time I spend staring into space, and the time I take in dilly dallying. AND I definitely do not finish a meal in 15 minutes.

AND. The time I spend on the computer. Shit.

And the worst thing is, I definitely do not sleep only 12 hours a day.

Oh. And the 14, 16, 18 topics aren't counting those that haven't been taught yet. (Yes, promos start in week two and NJ hasn't finished the syllabus for Physics yet.)

Econs? I love it so much I can't bear to flunk it. It seems like the only sane subject around. At least I know something about Econs, not just the spelling.

I. Should. Have. Taken. ARTS. Damn.

-Starts screaming-

Seriously.

I think for the first time in 17 years, I'm stressed.

Shit.

Sandy says
It's 9 minutes to 10pm! Surprised that I'm awake?

Of course Meigui wouldn't be awake at this time of the day. I'm her best friend blogging on behalf of her because she says she hasn't been blogging for many days (actually it's only 2) and she bet her 19,999 (1 less reader than Priscilla's blog) readers miss her entries damn much.

And if you aren't old enough to be oaiyrafa senile, you should remember reading a similar entry back at lonehearter many years (actually it's only 1) ago an entry blogged by me. So yah, I'm Sandy. Miss me?

Meigui has been busy studying these days (actually it's only 2 days) she can't find the time to blog. So she made me blog for her, otherwise she'll kill me for the 8000th time by some really oaiyrafa methods I don't wish to name. She even threatened to hire Sokmui to do the job. Being her best friend, I agreed to blog for her while she continue to fight the devil in Integration that stops her from befriending Maths. As for the huge demon in Physics, she's still considering whether to fight or abandon totally.

Anyway, I really want to say I've never seen Meigui mugging so hard before. Partly because she only got new eyes for me from Uruguay last week. But still, I know this is the first time she's really mugging. She even studied Chemistry yesterday. Chemistry leh. Considering the fact that she only has Sec3 knowledge of Chemistry (she doesn't know what she was doing in Sec4 either), and the fact that Chemistry is the only subject she gave up on totally for O's, and the fact that the only thing she knew about Organic Chem is there's something called alkanes and something called alkenes, it's a huge thing she's mugging Chemistry.

Actually, it's a huge thing she's even mugging at all. Sokmui claims Meigui hasn't studied since Sec2. Which got Meigui really surprised because she don't remember studying in Sec1 and 2 too. Either way, Meigui herself is surprised that she can actually sit in the library for 6 hours straight mugging Econs (not surprising) AND CHEMISTRY.

Woa. Maybe all that praying about Jiaxiang shang shen worked.

Though she lost to the devil in Maths today (she took two hours to do three inequality questions, out of which she got none right), she believes she'll triumph over the devil one day and attain transcendence.

TRANSCENDENCE. OH MY GOD. I MISS THAT WORD.

---Give me a minute while I make myself high.

TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE. TRANSCENDENCE.

:D :D :D :D TET! I miss Literature like mad!

Uh. I meant, Meigui miss Literature like mad.

Anyway, Meigui got into a dilemma today because she found out her sister lied to her mother and she doesn't know whether to tell her mother or not. After a really tough internal struggle, she decided not to tell her mother. Then her sister messaged her to warn her not to talk rubbish, and being the usual irritating person she aims to be, Meigui told her mother.

And now she's in deep shit.

But the only thing she cares about now is whether she'll learn how to do stupid inequalities and whether she'll start fighting the huge demon in Physics soon.

And she believes this is what NJ does to her.

Oh. Watch X-family! :D Bye.

PS: Sandy is Meigui's imaginary friend.
