the past few days have been like, WHOOSH. gone, just like that.
i hate school and all, but i'm not sure if i quite like this uber fast flying-by of days.
i can hardly remember what happened when!
i guess this is when a blog comes in useful. to keep track of all your movements.
saturday was spent at the swim meet. i canNOT believe i went for the swim meet. i was all set on just ponning with no valid reason 'cause i really didn't feel like going. but i don't regret going in the end! weellll. the um, ambience was quite good! and the meet got exciting towards the end. like when the arts fac won the inter-combi race and we all cheered like crazy. :)
TWEET!
and the hugest surprise of the day was when ms.ho offered to take whoever turned up for the swim meet out for lunch! pretty cool stuff! i think that was nice of her. i mean, she didn't have to or anything, since the swim thing was supposed to be compulsory. but she did! haha. so cheryl, dree and i ended up having a greeeeat lunch at the holland v crsytal jade.
brian, michgoh and al were around too but we couldn't get the boys and mich wasn't feeling well. haha so thanks to the swim meet and ms.ho, i got my monthly dose of crystal jade early.
came back home to nap before meeting chels and dree in town. i can't believe i spent what, 3hours plus walking around far east??! but then again i didn't even get to shop really really properly.
i saw a couple of nice things that i wanted to get but i couldn't bring myself to spend my money then! argh such a stupid girl i am.
according to sloman/keynes/any other economist, spending money is good and saving money is BAD.
especially since i happen to be one of those people who don't make use of the banking facilities in my country and instead save my money under my pillow. figuratively. spending money is good because it contributes to national income and hence boosts GDP, and an increase in GDP is a signal of economic growth, which has to be good!
so because i want to do my part for the economy, i will buy a new school bag next week.
sunday was my stay-at-home day, which i think i must have thoroughly enjoyed, but owing to my questionable memory, i simply cannot recall anything about sunday at all. except that i went to heartland mall after church and discovered that the kodak machine outside cold storage lets you infrared your phone pictures over directly and then prints them out for you at 50cents per picture. i was so amused by it! but i think dad wasn't very amused when i asked him for 50cents to complete my amusement by printing the photo out. i bought my week's supply of sweets and chocolates that will keep me awake all throughout the week's boring classes. especially for Triple Geog Thurdays, which calls for a larger ration of food in class.
for this week, i shall be eating nothing but citrus fruit mentos, kinder chocolate and blackcurrent fruitella in class. and one bar of caramel kitkat.
came back home and found out that carol had tuition. so i sat myself down at the table with her and laoshi and had a good nice long talk with laoshi, whom i haven't really seen since i dropped chinese! i played with her uber cool phone from china that has a fantastic screensaver and a wonderful wonderful camera! the camera turns and lets you take pretty photos of yourself!
and for lunch, we had dad's salmon porridge, which he had been surreptiously cooking just for the fun of it. haha! my dad actually likes cooking.
monday was quite a useless school day in itself. monday was also supposed to be pw results day for acjc students. for some strange reason, ms.ho didn't give us our results during pccg period as promised.
i found out from noelle who found out from brian who found out from somebody that results were finally out during recess.
and i got a 2! :)
it isn't very much, but considering the quality of my wr and op... i'm thankful i got a 2. yeah.
i had more free periods than classes yesterday. mrs.creffield wasn't in school, ms.tancc couldn't make it for econs supplementary. i don't take math.
i only had one econs tutorial where we did nothing but annotate the case study articles and DOUBLE PE the whole of my long 430 day!
then i had dc after school because i was late! -which was something i'd forgotten to mention earlier.
i'm doing dc too often this term. 2 dcs in about 2weeks.
but i was kinda productive during dc i guess. read my econs notes once through during the one-and-a-half hours where i was forced to sit and be quiet.
oh. captain's ball during double pe was pretty fun! considering that it's the first time in this entire term that i'm doing double period pe. it's scary, but i think i do more mass pe than double period pe. i must be mad.
today was a very hot and sticky day. thankfully, school ended early even though ms.tancc wanted to take one period after school to makeup for the supp period she missed yesterday. we finished early and she let us go! :)
thanks chels my pal for accompanying me down to holland v today even though you were supposed to have tuition! (touchy subject i know)
so anyway. went down to holland v with chels and cheryl, and i bought the pretttyyy black beaded bag from creative dimensions! then went down to toapayoh to buy pins.
i did my part for the economy today.
