longest day i've had in a freaking long time

TODAY. was the longest school day i had for a REALLY REALLY REALLY long time. let me start with school.

so, i'm still a little sick. i still cant smell and my voice still feels funny. ok... i can smell a little bit now. and i can TASTE! yay. that's VERY important for food lovers like me.. LOL. ok... back to the sequence of events. i went to school and the first thing i had was a math test which went surprisingly well considering that it is on DE. but then again, they refused to test on the formulation of DEs so its not a fair test. haha. so after that, we were all kinda relaxed and went into chem practical where we learnt and had an exercise on chem skill A. haha... from our previous experience with bio skill A, we predicted that it would be quite as hellish. and it sorta is. though there is less things to write and memorise, there is the added hurdle called CALCULATIONS. which is a killer. lol. mole concept strikes back once again. so anyway, allister woonyee jump and i decided to work together and go crazy once again. hahaha... but hey, as long as it makes everyone happy (including the teacher), why not! hahahaha.. i think we were a lil too noisy though. haha.. disturbed the other hardworking serious people. anyways, allister for the first time is super tired and thus incoherent (much like me) and so he was going a lil insane and so i had to focus more... hahahahhaa.... but no matter.. we pulled through just fine :)

so at break, we were reading econs.... i was playing computer.... eating.. haha... quite chill. cuz haf 2 period break. before we had to go for math tutorial. which went fine. mr lim marked the test ALREADY and so i got it back. did not bad. but died cuz of a wrong understanding of concepts. so serve me right lah. yah. but it was an encouraging score nevertheless. and after math, its... the dreaded econs cuz we haf to present. and soooo.. we did. and i kinda screwed my slides up. hahah.. yeah. that's cuz of lack of preparation. lol. but who cares. as long as i got the content across. then after that, i stayed awake long enough to listen to my class' next group which is sorta like a continuation on our presentation. which is good. and then.. when it was the 3rd group.... i zoned off completely. untill the end of lesson.

THEN, i rushed to take bus to tanah merah for H3 and from there take train. i was supposed to go with kengsheng but he had to see a teacher so i went first. but he smsed me and asked if i wanted him to pick me up at the mrt station. i was at lavender at 3.30 so i was definitely gonna be late if i took train to bishan. so i said ok and he fetched me. and we reached there RIGHT before the lecture actually started. which was so lucky of us. note. its now 4 pm and i'm in RJC for H3 bio. there is no time to grab a bite after econs. so i'm SUPER tired. and kinda hungry. anyway, the prof was engaging. a good recap kinda thing for eukaryote prokaryote regulation of gene. but it got kinda scary. and kengsheng and i got turned off when he jumped to conclusions and said the 2 of us were teachers pets. GRRRRRR. just cuz he heard wrongly. when he asked if he was wrong, we ALL said yes but he annouced to the whole hall ks and i said no... wah lau... damn embarassing can. but yah. he's the kind who like DEMANDS audience participation. which is kinda intimidating. but yeah... it was an interesting topic. learned a lot of things that is like an add on to the H2 knowledge. which is refreshing. so yeah... H3 is tiring and very intimidating. but its interesting. makes u appreciate how freaking amazing the intricacy of how everything works is.

anyway, one observation. there is seriously elitism going on the singapore education system. RJ has ATMs and whatnot in their campus. and.... their school is HUGE and looks damn. university like. and they had a damn fantastic sound system which is used for their orientation. and they played SEVERAL of the songs i like. the great escape... BECAUSE YOU LIVE.. etcetc... DURING the lecture when i was trying DESPERATELY to capture what he was saying and process it. urgh. SO distracting. anyway... i dun even wanna talk abt RJ anymore.. let's fast forward to after the lecture. ks and i went out to make our way back to bishan J8. saw a whole bunch of SECONDARY 1 kids. after orientation... or sumthing

anyway, we waited damn long for the bus and decided to walk. which is what we shld've done in the first place. so yeah.. we parted ways cuz i need to get dinner at j8. so ks went off. and i walked arnd.. contemplating what to eat. i should have called fabian for recommendations. that would have been a smarter thing to do rather than finding urself. but no.. i was stupid. i walked arnd the fast food area.. then went to food junction. everything is so ex. so i heck and ate nasi padang. gosh. the food tastes.. ok.. but.. it was cold. and it was SOOOOO expensive. and its so NOT worth the money. GOSH. and the things that look good are like.. RIDICULOUSLY priced. GRRRRRR.. so pissed..... so..... i henceforth swear off food junction at J8 FOREVER. i shall BOYCOTT it. and i officially declare all fridays when i'm at RJ, junk food dinner day! which mean i'll only eat from the fast food restaurants. at least there its CHEAPER. and LOADS NICER. HMPH.

so after that.. i took the train home... haiz... reach home at abt 9. wah lau..... then we all ate the cheesecake that sis and i made yesterday.. HAHA.. and..... played a lil bit of mahjong.. before i decided to stop and play computer and blog. so there you go.

btw, i'm feeling a lot better than last night. cuz i finally got to do what i needed and badly wanted to do this morning, when playing the com. :)
