Well, I didn't know that there are still many people out there coming to my blog faithfully every now and then. Seriously, I am warmed by it.
Weeks ago, I was actually a little devastated because of the numerous problems I was facing at that time. I was beaten with no mercy by these problems; they took my happiness away; they saddened me; my heart sank. I even thought of going for prayers hoping to change my fortune, so to speak. I guess that has past, tomorrow is a brighter day.
There are currently two feelings that I am having.
I think I shall not elaborate further, well, that's how I feel.
I miss you, my DEAREST FRIENDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today, many of our results were out (at least for my class). I see one word 'Disappointment'. Well, if you havent known, I missed 3 papers (Geog P1, Econs and CSE), all H2 papers due to an illness. Many did not do well. This made me realise the cruel reality in JC, you don't expect good results. Even if you do, you end up disappointing yourself. Eg. 60 marks for secondary school and JC is a huge difference. 60 in secondary school could be considered not good because it's just a B4, but in JC it's a B (which is a good grade).
Tomorrow will be GP, Wednesday Chinese. Good Luck to me!
To all those who have done well: Well done!
To all those who did not score that well: Don't be disappointed, try harder alright! You still have your Promos.
7 people talked to me on msn today, rare! RANDOM :)
Taken during 57th POP in April. At that time, Corrine was laughing like mad whenever she sees me. I was even forced to take this photo.
Taken just now at Mac. *LOOK AT HER FRINGE!* Apparently, she cut hers ytd. She claimed that she was smsing and did not realise that the barber was cutting bangs. Now her fringe is the same level as her eyebrows! Seriously, retribution! LOL:)
Lesson Learnt: DO NOT LAUGH AT OTHERS FOR THE SAME THING MIGHT JUST HAPPEN ON YOU!
Can't imagine how she face the other school people. I was like controlling my laughter when I met her today. But of course, it's always natural to laugh and duh, LAUGH! Seriously, only 3 letters for you: LOL!
Met up with Zhenghua today at mac with Corrine. So small 'Boon Lay' gathering. NCC people cannot change topic one, definitely it will be about NCC and of course NCC. We went around in JP whereas Corrine joined her mum and sister (quite fierce though). Then we keep meeting each other. In the end, Corrine decided to just join us. Thank you ZH for the treat at Pizza Hut! Super Super Full!!!
A day where old friends meet again...
你没有回复我的简讯!
Anyway, this photo of yours looks like you kena stroke. Apparently, your left eye got some problem and cannot be opened. Pity you. Based on the action, I know it's tough living in IMH (Institute of Mental Health), but when it's time to take medicine, please eat. At least, for the world of mankind. Thanks!
FYI, this post was requested by JOCELYN OH! dun look for me, go settle with her! LOL:)
Like seriously, as if like the entire world has collapsed on me. I really dun know how to describe that feeling, that feeling of confusion, anxiety and lost. Yes, I lost my wallet today.
Today, I understand the phrase 'it's just not your day'. Supposedly to wake up at 7.15am to meet Theo for her birthday with Salt Walter. But in the end, I was awaken at 8am! Realising that I would be late, I text Salt Walter. No reply. And so, I went back to lala land again. At 9am, I received a call from him asking me where I was. In the end, we had to rush to Lot 1 to meet Theo because she has to leave at 11.30am for her next appointment. Salt Walter and I first headed to KFC to wait for our dear Theo to arrive. When she arrived, we decided to have our breakfast at the food court instead. (NOTE THAT THIS WAS THE LAST TIME I HAVE SEEN MY WALLET!)
Unaware of the truth, we went up and just as I was about to buy food, I realised my wallet was missing! *lightning strikes, thunder bolts* My first instinct was that someone (Theo or Salt Walter) must have taken it. Realising that it was not a joke, I was really confused. The kind Salt Walter then dashed down back to KFC in search of my wallet. However, to no avail. His emotionless face, slow footsteps gave him away. I knew it was really not my day. Well, I was extremely saddened by the cruel truth. Well, since it's Theo's birthday, I decided to keep my emotions. Still joking away, I asked Salt Walter to carry on with his breakfast. For me, I excused myself and simply wandered around Lot 1 like a lost sheep, hoping to find back my herd. Went to KFC, walked past popular countless times, thinking of the outcome of losing my wallet, I went back. It was nice of Theo to encourage me with that note, I got you. But as much encouragement would not change the truth. But still, thank you!
Sent Theo to Mac to join her friends, well, we managed to take a photo though. Yes, I still managed to squeeze my cheek muscle to at least give a smile. After departing, Salt Walter and I went to customer service to see if anyone has found my wallet. To be honest, I had almost zero hope of finding it. True to my feeling, it wasn't there. Then, I filled up this lost and found form and went back KFC. Trying to be safe, we went back KFC (the place whereby I last saw my wallet) to ask again. Bruce (the staff) replied 'Sorry, no wallet found'. My heart sank. We left afterwards.
Being cashless, the first thing that came to my mind was 'how to go home?'. My dear Salt Walter was again kind enough to spare me 55 cents to take 172 to Boon Lay interchange. I feel rather bad to ask him to pay for the $1.60 train trip from CCK to Pioneer despite his 'nvm lah'. I told him that it was alright as I could walk home. On the bus, Theo was smsing me saying how sorry she was. YOU ARE NOT AT FAULT AT ALL LAH! NO NEED TO APOLOGISE!! Separated with Salt Walter and walked home afterwards.
On the way back, I was thinking whether to call my aunt or not. Fearing that she might scold me, I plucked up my courage and dialled her number. She did not scold, in fact, she was telling to go and report here report there. Went back, saw my ahma, I told her something bad happened to me. She was like '发生什么事?' I told her I lost my wallet. She replied hastily '你还在这边做什么?快点去报案啦!' I came home to take the ez-link card which my dad gave it to me just in case I need to travel. Also, I needed to take my passport for id purposes (my IC is inside the wallet). Then I had a bread and almost prepared to go. Upon leaving, I was quite reluctant to go alone (I needed support). So I asked my ahma to follow me, she agreed immediately.
So we had a little walk to Nanyang CC's NPP (Nanyang Police Post). Spent 30 minutes there answering questions and doing much admin stuff. The policeman said Pioneer JC is a good school. Stunned that he knows the school. I could feel that he wanted to calm me down a bit. Thank you Police officer Rahman!

Well, I am not really that ecstatic though. Back to Econs. Can you please talk to me? :(
