Not such a bright start to the year I was hoping for but at least it finally came :( Was kinda expecting it since I didn't really do well at the interview. Anyhow here it is:
Anyhow thanks to all for the new year wishes and birthday wishes. 18 now! Not such a big deal buy hey? A year older. Now it means I can go into clubs and drink and smoke and PARRRTTTAAAAYYYYY..... (Jun imitation lol) Other than that, no real significance I can think of....
I'm officially participating in Forensics debate again... Kevin has very kindly acquesced (I hope so) to be my partner again this year despite lack of practice, research and skill. Hopefully with a stronger team this year, we can actually make more of an impact in the debating field, and with some luck, bring back a medal. The best bets would probably be on Shafqat and Zhi Wei (if they can get their act and speeches together) but the luck of draw makes everything possible...
Good grades for my October exams with As in Physics and General Paper bades well for the future. It really helps that I achieved an AAA breakdown for my Physics so no retakes! YAY!! On the other hand, the January exams went well and I would still be aiming for As in all the English Literature and Mathematics modules which would put me in a very good position during May. It would also give me more time to dedicate to my Yearbook work which will be discussed below...
Yearbook. Aaaahhhh.... Possibly the most hair-losing, frustrating, meticulous and satisfying project ever in anybody's school life. It's time to get a move on with all the back log of work and time for me to go into the German Nazi-ish mood (quote: Jit) again. Things are looking rosy at the moment and hopefully everything will be done at the end of this term or at the very latest, April. Here's to a very very productive second half of Term 1 where everybody will meet all the deadlines. Wishful thinking Zhongey... But seriously, that would be the most perfect, perfect present ever...
On another note, the grim reaper has been very busy this two months... 4 deaths now, and counting... Seriously it's been so frequent that I haven't get the time to write out proper eulogies for the four deceased. In chronological order, our beloved Ms. Ooi Saw Imm, Mr. Quah Ban Hock, Ong Yi's grandmum and my grand-aunt. Any more and I'll really believe I'm cursed... Death really leaves a mark upon all of us and my deepest condolences go out to all the family and friends of the deceased. At times like this when I need the least distractions from my work, it is hard to believe that it takes Death knocking on the door to bring me back into perspective and back onto ground. True life has its twist and turns, but seriously this is taking things way too far... For now, I'll just believe I'm not yet the Harbinger of Doom...
Chinese New Year was way too short. 3 and a half days are no way to celebrate the new year but then, that's life. Not in the festive spirit anyway but well, you get caught up in the atmosphere somehow. Considering the short frame of time, it was quite fun and exhausting sprinting around visiting (or trying to visit) everybody. Particularly pleasing was meeting up with Ms. Leong Hui May who I only see once a year but has not changed a bit! In fact, she seems to have gone a little more cuckoo! Maybe it runs in the family? Lol just joking... Heard from my sisters that Ang Pow collection was good this year and I'm certainly hoping so :) Am going to need it to finance a decent laptop cooler and an external hard drive. Other things can wait...
Going to enter a plea of tolerance now to all my friends... I'm not in the best of mood these days and it would do better if you didn't annoy me too much... It would be very kind if you didn't ask what it's all about too as part of it is personal and I don't feel like sharing just yet... Sensitive people may pick up nooks and crannies but that's up to your own interpretation... Mums the word for now until I pick myself up again, hopefully in the not too distant future... Haih... Depression all over again... All gloom and doom and insomnia, such a lovely recipe for distraction...~Zhongey~
