Recently there is nothing very interesting going on in my life at all. And to clarify right, I actually meant I splurged on a Nicholas Spark book titled "Dear John" in my previous post, I have no idea why on earth I wrote John Green??? (Then again I'm too lazy to change it???) (Or maybe I just want to leave it there and wonder again when I come across this next time?) (Yeah, life has been like this lately, leaving me with a lot of ???s) (???)
On Sunday, I went to watch SYC concert with the choir though. The concert was really really REALLY good, as always. The execution of the songs are always mind-blowing like the brain gets blown all over the recital studio floor kind. So good. Afterwards we waited at the stage doors for Ms Tham to come out and I don't know why but Junn Houng started asking "Hey do you guys watch totally spies" and I went "Sam Clover Alex" and suddenly everyone was like "oMG SAM" "SAM AND CLOVER" "Alakda;fla" and it was damn funny because the y2 guys were discussing about Totally spies LOL. Then it escalated to Winx Club, yx and I said so much crazy shit about it including singing the enchantix song.... then the convo went to teen titans and hi5 and ppg and stuff wah and by the end of it even y1 guys joined in. But that's a good time relieving childhood memories.
When Ms Tham came out we presented her with flowers and we had a fun chat for awhile. And she was like pointing to a singer who came out with her going like "she's your long ago dhs choir senior." and we were like "OoooOOooOo" and then Ms Tham asked her when she graduated and she was like "Oh, 1996." And we all went "???" The look on their faces when we told them that the oldest among us were born in 1998? Priceless.
Yeah afterwards yx Yonglin Sher and I went to Raffles Place to get a drink and while we were drinking/eating yogurt we went into this little vintage store and got excited over every little thing lol. It's really cute. I think Sher hates me now cos I presented these square coin banks with the stereotypical blonde on it going like "Saving up for new shoes!!" "Can't wait to get married!!" and told her I'll buy it for her LOL. And then there were a few owl figurines so I was like doing sound role-plays with it like owl1 said to owl2 "Now you're just some birdie that I used to know" and I think Sher rolled her eyes so hard it must have hurt. Then yx took owl1 and we started to act like blondes/ghetto and I think Sher and Yonglin are torn between laughing and crying. Yeah, afterwards went into the paper market to look at all the pretty stuff in the world that we will never have the money to buy.
Yup.
I'm supposed to study for Bio but I'm really distracted and stuff, so I thought I'll just relax by doing a blog post. May we all have the strength to continue on!
Signing off with the most... erm, informal blog post I've done in a while,

You know that feeling when you finish reading a good book and a little bit of you dies inside?
Today, in what felt like the longest time ever, I was finally able to go home without a constant and nagging agenda at the back of my mind, or the need to rush to places. I actually could finally go home early while the afternoon sun was up, no school stuff, no outstanding homework, no anything.
So I took a small break and I didn't head home immediately upon reaching my stop. I went into popular and spent 2 hours there at the best-sellers section. I read through almost every summary written on the back of the books to see how it got onto best-selling. And also the many rows of books such as self-help, autobiography, novels and such. I browse through every book without a plastic wrap around it, and read about the horrors of child abuse and violence. I read about pre-war and wartime stories. I read deception point and badly wanted to add it into my collection of Dan Brown books, but I placed it back onto the shelf once I saw the price.
Simply put, I was torn, because I want to buy every single one of these books back home.
In the end, I splurged on a John Green book because the words "now a major motion picture" appealed to me. (and also I felt that I could really use a book that's more narrative than factual right now.) I spent the remaining day reading it and cried at some parts (what even) and I felt really sad that it ended. Day well spent.
There's a choir performance tomorrow as well! Hyped! :)

Hello august
Hello world.
What's up with this term?
Honestly, I don't really know. Tests began in week 3 and I daresay that the boring studying routines never stopped since then. It is a continuous and dreading cycle of studying, doing the test, get happy and relieved for a short while before you realize that more is coming again. Like I said earlier, the idea of removing cts and change to two "smaller" tests to "relieve" stress is bloody brilliant.
Week 7 is coming up soon and I have no idea how I will survive it. There are 4 tests and I have a choir performance on Wednesday night and geog field study on Thursday, which means much lesser time to study during the weekdays. At least I can spend more time singing with my lovely y2s and batchmates. As well as enjoy the sea breeze during field work. Yeap, I am quite hyped for fieldwork because going to east coast park seems to be some of the brighter things happening next week.
It's 9 August today as well, so Happy National Day Singapore. :D Only you can be 48 years old and still be so hot. Grateful for the long 4-day weekend.
