CNY 2011
Friday, 28 January 2011 @ 12:21 am
Chinese New Year is just around the corner!


and sadly,I ain't gonna receive any ang paos (in Singapore at least) cause I just heard that my relatives are not going to visit us this year,due to unforseen circumstances ._.


Anyway,like every Chinese New Year,I always head up to Malaysia to visit more relatives.
This year's no exception
and I always receive no more than a total of 100RM every CNY ..
not much in SGD either... -.-
but really,it's not the ang baos I'm most looking forward to ( as most youths would -.- ) ,but rather the joyous and festive occasion that it brings.


Heading up to Malaysia always makes me feel relaxed,as I mentioned countless times over posts that I had made on frequent trips to Malaysia


Going there allows me to escape from the rather stressful / boring life in Singapore and unwind a little.
Being able to see scenic views and less hectic environments and yea etc...
I've mentioned this many times already,on posts that I made about trips to Malaysia..


I don't know whether I should be looking forward to Chinese New Year or not.
This year's one doesn't seem to evoke any interest/enthusiasm in me


Don't know if it's because I'm getting older and CNYs tend to get less and less significant each year,or is it because nothing has cued any sign of interest/enthusiasm in me.
Like for example,when I was still studying in Primary & Secondary school,CNY celebrations would be held in the school hall prior to the start of CNY.


Those celebrations gave me more exposure to the joyous festivities that CNYs await every year.
This year though,I don't get to see any celebrations ,unless I go back to Maris just to witness it. lol ._.


Nevertheless,CNY is an auspicious period of time for every Chinese person all-year-round to relish, and whether or not they choose to celebrate it,it should still be a time for joy and good luck to be spread and savoured.


Oh well,I guess life's back to normal after CNY.
school and office functions have to start working again,everything gets busy after CNY!


except Poly students,who have another two months to wait for the Poly term to start!
xD


lol
enjoy your Chinese New Year festivities people
BYE.

Thursday, 20 January 2011 @ 6:29 pm
I need to find something to keep myself occupied with -.-
freaking bored..


I can either spend the remaining two months of the pre-Poly semester learning a new skill / finding a job


but I'd prefer learning a new skill
perhaps picking up a new language,yea
that'd be cool


German? Spanish? French?
Malay?

zoo
Tuesday, 11 January 2011 @ 11:56 pm
went to the zoo with friends today
the ticket costed us $28 each ..


fucking rip-off,but it included unlimited tram rides and a free 5-minute fish spa session
lol


haven't visited the zoo since Sec1 or 2,can't remember,when I went there for an excursion
not much change though :\
everything's more or less the same


walked around the zoo trails for several hours until my legs became sore,so the unlimited tram rides came to our advantage :P


after the visit,had Japanese cuisine for dinner,then went to Virtualand @ amk for no apparent reason ._.


made our way home after that as it was getting late. Great company,but the zoo's just not a fun place to hang out. So overall,the outing was ok ..
it could've been better if we had chosen a better place,or if the ticket prices were not so expensive -.-


ARGHHH ~
need to make those 12 decisions by Friday ... !
SO RUSH... -.-


O'level results day
Monday, 10 January 2011 @ 11:41 pm
AHHHH !!!!!


it's finally over!!! ...
the freaking O'level results have been released


the anxious, long 2-month wait for the results came to an end today and they just seemed to pass in the blink of an eye.
Getting the results back today sort of opened up a new lease of life for me


it made me realise how important education was,well...especially in Singapore
and witnessing some people shed tears while others express their ecstacy in different ways,was like witnessing a myriad of emotions


all of us were like anxiety bombs,waiting to set off any moment while waiting for our turns to retrieve the slips


what was a 20minute journey from home to school,seemed like the longest 20minutes I had ever taken to get to school :x
and it could have well probably been the last time I visited the school,other than band-related events..


and within these two months,all I kept thinking to myself was how badly I was going to do,especially due to the fact that I knew I had screwed my Humans up


nevertheless,I braced myself mentally and eventually went up to retrieve my results slip,and at first I dared not look,but then my teacher just took it out and flashed it right in front of my eyes


when I saw my results,my heart was too jumpy to count my L1R5
I stood up impulsively, then immediately walked to the back of the hall,where it was quieter, allowing me to catch a breath or two.


I then managed to calm myself down and tally my L1R5 score
I won't say my score here because I am particular sensitive about revealing information online.
just an uncanny habit,don't mind me

but I can affirm you that my L1R5 is below 20,not single digit though,of course o.o

anyway,what's done is done..
I now have to set my mind into post-O'level life that lies ahead


the headache now,is choosing the courses that I want to take in Poly, decisions that will ultimately determine my future
and I have until Friday to make those 12 choices. Pretty rushed,but I guess it's their way of speeding up procedings.

and who knows,I might even consider JC education :0 hmm..


*sighs of relief* ~~~
I've now got a heavy load of my chest removed,and what lies ahead is only the beginning of a new life for me


the road to O'levels and the O'levels itself have changed my life significantly,and this four-year Secondary school experience,I would say,has not been put to a waste
I really cherish these four years I had in Maris Stella,and I'll never forget the friends I've made, and the memories I had with them,even though I might not be all-that close to them


this is life ultimately...you have to move on no matter what
and so,I wish all graduated Sec4s all the best with life no matter where it leads you,
and good luck to all graduating Sec4s this year for your O'levels!


all the best people,peace ~!
