yeah for ppl like you who's reading my blog, it better be because u've finished your tests. bcos i totally banned myself from the fridge(which had all my chocolates and yummy biscuits and gummy sweets etc etc), and i totally banned myself from the com and reading ppl's blogs and reading books etc etc. no tv, no slacking, no nothing. it was an existence boring as in prison.
except it required LOTS of brain power, such that at the end of the day, when i go to sleep, my brain's so dead i couldn't sleep and i dream of numbers and equations when i wake up. T.T
so here ends the first common tests of my life...
i don't miss it.
the papers weren't too bad, but could have been better definitely. hopefully i'll pass well, and not fail anything at all >.< we went to celebrate today! we indulged in sinful desires (eating a mudpie which had oreo cookies, chocolate, butter cream and coffee ice cream all in one, plus a chocolate crust), and we went ice-skating.
uhh iceskating wasn't too bad, i improved quite a lot from the previous time years back, but now im super tired, aching all over my back, my legs and a bit of my arms. T.T ice-skating is such a tiring sport, like worse than cycling! (which i can't do as well)
hmm tmr we'll be having our class learning journey, to of all places, arab street. this means i have to wake early tmr, which means i should sleep early. soon. and i wonder what's going to happen there?

what i did yesterday
we went for my classmate's monica's birthday party. there was a bbq and we spent AGES trying to get the fire started. we spammed firestarters but the charcoal just wouldn't catch fire. after one hour++ we finally succeeded. T.T
there was loads of food, her mum baked a shepherd's pie that's to die for, and there was nice chinchowdrink that is more jelly than drink that we all just drank anw, and we just talked and ate. otah, sausages, corn, stingray, beehoon, satay, crabmeat, shepherd's pie, potato chips, drinks, and more!
we played twister,
uno stacko - look at leaning tower of pisa! that was somewhat right b4 it collapsed ^^"
some card games and watched some tv. yepp.
the very nice chocolate mint green tea cake + ice cream cake that my classmates got for her. apparently you can decorate and design your own icecream cake at ben & jerry's! (i nv knew that b4 o.o)
monica's really pro. she managed to blow out ALL the candles in one breath, both the ones on the chocolate mint green tea cake AND the one on the ice cream cake!
happy birthday monica!

updates on my hols
holidays almost coming to an end. last week left ):
so how's life for me so far? PW and mugging have been taking over my life. i need more time to mug, i haven't finished my physics mugging yet, and there's still 3 other subjects??? i've been sending out emails to get ppl to help me find primary school children and their parents to do surveys. so here goes:
do help me get more primary school children and their parents to do the survey k? i've done some surveying around with my neighbours but we still need like another 30 more?
hmm. i've been playing a bit more tennis, and i've made some new friends with my neighbours. there's this couple called sharon and vincent who have just started out learning tennis for 2 months or so, so we could play together and practise lah. they're quite cool, except i haven't got much time to play with them.
i did mention this b4, that for every ball game i've every played during pe, i always get hit on the head by the ball. like basketball, volleyball, netball, the balls have all hit my head b4 xD even golf balls! but nope, never tennis. now i can say that i finally got hit by a tennis ball on the head! (after more than one year, that's a record really. ^^) what's more, i got hit not once, but twice. all in the same game.
ytd i was playing tennis with my bro's friends and i think i was picking up some ball when the ball came flying, bounced off the ground and bounced again on the left side of my head. i laughed. then later on i got caught unaware again and i randomly hit the ball, and the ball went super high, spinning. usually the ball would land somewhere further away, and i couldn't see where the ball was going bcos it was going up towards the sun, so i just stood where i was and waited for the ball to land somewhere else.
uh yah obviously it chose to land on the right side of my head this time. haha so i got hit once on each side of the head. nice. except the ball was spinning and kindof hurt bcos it was spinning on my head. shouldn't have hit it so hard T.T
hmm today, i had my tennis lesson. after i finished tennis lesson, i was expecting the whole house to be up and bustling about with all its activity. amazingly, for once the whole house was so quiet. everyone's asleep, except my mum who was in the toilet, and it was 11.20am alrd?
i think my dad was having jet lag, having just returned from a business trip to spain and germany; my bro was plain tired from watching triple guess (我猜我猜我猜猜猜!). i don't watch it anymore bcos it's like from 11.30pm to 1am, and i have tennis lesson on sunday mornings so can't sleep so late. plus there's no more rainie hosting the programme, so not so nice alrd ):
to think of it, during holiday days when i can sleep in, i haven't woken up later than 10+am b4. 10am is considered late for me alrd. my mum would always do all her housework and wake me up if i sleep in too late, like towards 9+am. what's more, my room has two windows and the sun somehow always manages to peek in and make the room all hot and bright. the best way is to sleep early and wake early then no problem ^^
i've also been watching hannah montana shows. it's really quite good and never fails to make me laugh haha. just brings me back to my childhood days where i used to watch a lot of similar teen shows on nickelodeon, like all that, the amanda show, clarissa explains it all, brothers garcia etc. my bro's been introducing a lot of american shows to me, but how to find so much time to watch! T.T
i quite like my brother being around, it makes life much more interesting and holidays much less boring. a pity i don't have more holidays to play and have fun with him >.< he's going on an 8-week attachment starting tmr so he won't be very free anymore. but oh well, my sch is starting soon so i won't be free either.
ytd night we went to visit my aunt and my cousins. uhh upon leaving, we noticed our car was slanted to one side and we got off. tada. we had a punctured tire.
my bro in his smart casual wear, displaying amazing abilities in changing tires.
taking out the screws of the punctured tire.
spare tire fixed on!
i still don't quite know how to change the tire, but i have an idea how to. eh well. i shall just wave around and hope someone nice would stop by and help me if my tire ever gets punctured xD what an eventful night!
rest of the week - jap club meeting, econs revision lesson, going out with blaws, squeeze time for mugging, pw. let's enjoy what's left of our hols!
p.s. happy father's day! give your daddies a hug today ^^
so how's life for me so far? PW and mugging have been taking over my life. i need more time to mug, i haven't finished my physics mugging yet, and there's still 3 other subjects??? i've been sending out emails to get ppl to help me find primary school children and their parents to do surveys. so here goes:
Hey everyone!
We need to get a big enough sample size for our Project Work survey regarding myopia in children. Our project is regarding the changing lifestyles of children and the impact of this on their health, especially their eyesight. The target group here is primary school children and their parents.
Do any of you have siblings in primary school, or do you have friends, relatives, or anyone you know who are in primary school?
Please do help me pass this survey around, and get your primary school siblings/friends/relatives to do this survey if possible! I need parents of primary school children to do a survey as well, so please help me and get some parents to do it! (we are in need of more parents to survey >.<)
Survey for primary school children - http://www.eSurveysPro.com/Survey.aspx?id=f5c847f7-7260-4c20-8770-8e9dc4f1bdd0
Survey for their parents - http://www.eSurveysPro.com/Survey.aspx?id=ea7f22a6-c8a0-498e-b438-e6dc6fe7175d
It shouldn't take up too much of your time, so any help you can render is greatly appreciated. Thank you very much (:

oh yes you must see these amazing photos of when we were working on the project (ie. the spacesuit). PRELUDE to astrochallenge:

smiley - two "eyes" and a tick.
look how comfy qw is, sleeping while we slave away T.T
