The long awaited cruise is finally tomorrow! I know it will be over in a flash, but I'll try to enjoy myself to the fullest by not doing any homework for the short period and enjoying the facilities on board. I can also see that Shirin is very excited. I haven't actually finished packing yet, so see everyone in five days time!
Adios, Amigos
Take care, everyone! :D

MO was one word: DIFFICULT
I think I can only score.. 1 out of 40? haha, it's okay. :D The competition was held at NUS LT 25 so I had to find my way out (not in, as my dad showed me the way in). The campus was big, at least 5 times bigger than our school!
Sec 3 enrichment course is tomorrow! DNA workshop- At least it will not be as stressful as today- the mind-gruelling, brain cell-killing test!
Can't wait for Sunday!
Nothing else,
Ta.

May 26
I have to complete my homework asap!
Too much homework.... Killing me...
I have to go for make up lessons on other days because I am not going to school tomorrow! More days spent in school during holidays! I only reached home today at about 6.30pm because I had to stay back for mo lessons till 5+pm. :(
I am looking forward to the cruise on Sunday! :D
I just looked through the list for the sec 3 enrichment course and guess what? Half the cohort signed up for the DNA workshop, which yours truly is also joining. Is that a good thing?
shall end here.
:D

Finally.
It's been quite a while since I last posted. Results have been revealed, and I shan't talk much about it. On the other hand, we have loads of holiday homework! I really mean LOADS of them. Tomorrow will be a half-day: school ends at 9.45am as the teachers have to attend some IT seminar. I have nothing much else to say, so I shall end here!
P.S. Do tag if you are at my blog! :D
Thanks.
If only, this was paradise...

China earthquake
When I came back from OBS, my sister told me about the 7.8 major earthquake that happened on Monday at Si Chuan (四川) after the cyclone in Myanmar. The news was really shocking, but it really shows how unpredictable life and everything, especially Mother Nature, can be, making us reflect on how to cherish life. It also has shown how warm-hearted the society is, with donations and aid from other countries not directly involved. Even celebrities donated money.
I would like to say that even though some people may not have that much money, many small donations can make up a large sum of money, as the chinese saying goes, 积少成多. I was during OBS that time and I really realise that what I have gone through is nothing compared to children who have lost their parents, wives who have lost their husbands, and survivors with no home. Looking at the pictures on The Straits Times, I can't help but feel bitter. People are homeless and losing their family. If I were them, I really don't know what would happen.
Fight hard to survive!

Saturday
Went for tuition and then to Marina Square after that. My mum went to John Little for some sale and she bought quite a lot of stuff. Dinner was at the Imperial Treasure La Mian Xiao Long Bao restaurant. Nothing much else, shopped for a while more then we went home.

Back from OBS!
I am back from OBS and I am proud to say I have survived! HAHA
Here's a summary of what happened over the 5 days 4 nights. (12.05.06 to 16.05.08)
Day 1:
Took a boat from Punggol jetty to Pulau Ubin with fellow group mates (Cousteau) and to meet our instructor, Elton. We also learnt how to belay, and pack the things needed from the store for the next day's 3 day 2 night trip to other campsites. Bathed in the not-so-clean toilet and had to set up our tents to sleep and fanned myself with Isabella's fan. :D
Tent mates: Huiyan, Isabella, Kah Huan and Qian Ning.
Day 2:
Trekked over to Camp 1 and we rock-climbed to earn ourselves the catered dinner. I was so surprised that I could reach the top! :D We then had kayaking lessons to practise capsizing and rescuing. (Thanks to Huiyan, kayaking partner, for encouraging me!) Had the greatest dinner during this whole camp by the caterer in the cookhouse and slept in our tents.
Day 3:
Sea Expedition day. Kayaked along half way, but there was a storm and we had to stop half way along some coast. The experience was really scary, like being really helpless and if not for the encouragement and help of our team mates, I am sure we couldn't have survived. Cousteau hugged to keep warm and under the ponchos, it felt warm and comfy. :) The campsite for that night was on an island with no bathroom, so we couldn't bathe! Slept in an unstable tent for that night. :S
Day 4:
Trekked all the way to Chek Jawa and then back to Camp 2 with a 10kg++ backpack which caused a bad shoulder ache. It was a great sense of achievement when we finally reached our destination and the huge relief from the heavy backpack as indescribable! Had a special farewell dinner and then slept in our tents after searching for tent pegs.
Day 5:
Last day of camp. Wrote some well-wishes for the team-mates and bought souvenirs from the souvenir shop. We stepped onto the boat for mainland Singapore and almost everyone as buying soft drinks from this stall uncle! Reached school at 3pm and cabbed back home with Huizhen.
I found out that my DEAR sister had missed me so much that she fell sick! I love her so much! :D
Haha, and before I end, I would like to say that Cousteau made me feel so at home, so warm. May the Cousteau spirit live forever! Cousteau Cousteau, go go!

Crezawards
Crezawards on 9 May!
Had ava duty so I had to stay back till 10.30pm! It was a busy busy day- I didn't even have time to go home to change. Well, the winner for the solo category was Ariel! She sang really really well. The champion group for the dance was the NCC group and their dance was unique. :D Jeanette Aw came too, for prize giving.
Nothing much to say, other than I was really tired.

May 7
Since my sister has deleted the previous blog, I have decided to set up a new blog, although I am sure that this blog will soon be dead (again).
The Mid-years are finally over! BUT, I am worried about the results.
The (quite) good news- My dad has finally finally got the star cruise package after looking hard for it. We are going on superstar Aquarius this time! I just enjoy cruises, they are so relaxing. You just stay onboard to enjoy the amenities and think about nothing. I specially requested for this trip. :D The cruise will be a 4-night one on 1 June, and we will be going to Phuket, Thailand.
Oh no, I am suddenly feeling very worried. My exam results. Oh no.
Learning journey tomorrow.
Bye.
P.S. I have to recover those posts on that old blog. My hard work!
