Ohwell. Its 2200 now and its first EOY paper Chinese p1 tomorrow (and I did not study a lot for zuowen) and i spent the whole day on geog. So I have one last essay to memorise and three SAQs to prepare. Ugh.

:/

So, I guess this is it. A daunting task in front of me, what I've set out all year to get- will I get it?

I hope there isn't any mistakes.

"A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him." ~David Brinkley

It's just that... Right now, I feel that the bricks are really making me fall from the steps of the staircase that I've climbed.

But all we did was say hello.

HEY.I just did the craziest thing ever. I reviewed all my fb friends and actually unfriended all those whom I did not know, one by one.
What pisses me off is that when I painstakingly did all that, there are still 705 friends. I think I removed a hundred people at least. 700+ feels like it's a lot to me...
Anyway, it's the last day of the holidays, I feel dreadful for the next day. Jiayou to myself for the final lap of year two. Highlights of this holiday...

• Went to MBS with Weiqin, Lily and Michelle because it's Michelle's belated birthday gift. Totally turned into full-tourist that day. It was an awesome day :)

• Masterclass at school, Mr Velasco had certainly delivered choral skills in a fun way.

• Music Recital SK

• Sha gu niang

• ...

And yes, that's about it... nothing much. Sha gu niang is actually pretty darn good.

All my weekdays were spent mugging at my favorite coffee shop until I'm kinda... well, broke from spending $6++ for a cup of Ice-blended every time to get a seat. So I headed to macs in the remaining days and although their drinks are much cheaper ($1.80 for the smallest cup of "hot choc" you knooooo) but their hot chocolate... what I practically drank was warm milk with cocoa powder blotted in layer of foam. Seriously. Now I know why I should spend $6.50 at bux for a mug of classic hot choc because it's really worth the price. The table leg was also really shaky and how I sat throughout 6 hours was alternate between legs to press and hold down the nearest table leg T__T
Oh well. Bye my holidays...
Wait, what? What holidays?

HEY.

IT'S THE SEPTEMBER HOLI- ... Wait, what? What holidays?

Got holiday meh?

Exactly my sentiments. What is supposedly a time to recharge and catch up on studies for some ended up as a time to rush work instead. I'm not complaining about homework, of course not. Homework is essential. But it is seriously overboard when you are given things such as... what, three content-heavy essays? Or when you make us self-study a whole topic, when so many of us did not do well for this term's test? Homework is ok, I shall stress again. But what happens when we have barely a month to study whole year's worth of content for the biggest test ever? This means that it is essential to revise as well. When you add revision, homework, cca training/pracs and one week together, what you get is just a brain inplosion.

Recipe post

What you need:
Blues
A spoilt phone
Smart brain(s)
Great legs
Low self-esteem

Step 1: make sure you set an alarm at 6am on a Monday, because your smartphone will ended up not ringing.

Step 2: actually crawl out at an ungodly timing and rush like shit.

Step 3: experience severe Monday blues while you wear your shoes with your breakfast in your mouth.

Step 4: when you get into the car, your smart brain will yet again remind you that you have forgotten to take that piece of paper where you wrote everything you've prepared for an essay test that day.

Step 5: with your great legs, run home. Return to your fuming mum and bro 5mins later.

Step 6: run seriously late for school, reaching somewhere near the back gate at 7.53.

Step 7: RUN. Must. Reach. In. Two. Minutes.

Step 8: assembly ends. You walk off as your usual morning routine. Your smart brains will inform you that you have forgotten to take your bag along when you're halfway to class.

Step 9: your bad luck streak unfortunately, shows consistency. At 10.20, you realise you forgot to bring your choir tee for cca photo taking.

Step 10: groan, because your mum who works somewhere near school would most probably have left home circa 10am.

Step 11: remembers that your passage base test is on that day, and you have never been that good with essays anyway. Add a pinch of low-self esteem to season.

Step 12: head to auditorium at end of day to get back dreaded history papers. Hmm, let's add in "*insert adjective* voice yada-yada for an hour" here before you get back the paper as a garnish.

And that's how you make a "can't-get-any-worse day" dish, folks!

Serve while hot.

Irrational

Got a random inspiration to write in the mrt. Sorry to the guy I eavesdropped on tough... And thank you.

On a side note, tomorrow is the 14th again, it has been 5 months. I hope you are still staying strong on the other side Bell. We miss you so much.

Dislike maths. Dislike x 10000. Today just made my detest for it increase by a hundred times more. :(

And incase you wonder why I am in the mrt now, I'm heading to my favorite place to study!! Nah, actually it's my favorite coffeeshop (because I like their non-caffeine drinks) that is actually empty and nearest to sk :)
