17!

On Sunday my mum wanted to visit the Kranji Resort, so dad drove us to that rather ulu place. The sun was happily radiating all its heat energy onto Earth, but the warmth felt rather comfortable. It is still under development, a lot of fruit trees have not grown fruits, but apparently the villas there were fully booked. They looked quite nice, big glass apartments that are fully air-conditioned. Another alternative to chalets in the east! 

Dad brought me to the fruit garden and named all the trees there, saying that they'll all bloom and bear fruits within two to three years. Funny how my dad can talk to people of any kind, one moment he was talking to the malay security guard about how hot is it, then he talked to an indian worker about how it'll take years for the trees to fully develop. Heh. Mum as usual was on the lookout for things to buy. I bought this DRAGON FRUIT flavoured ice-cream! 

And there was this seafood restaurant with lots of live seafood outside. I saw this thing! I have no idea what it is, just thought it didn't look eatable. Urghh. It's legs were flailing around!

I think that resort will be a nice place when every thing's up and ready!

Today! Went out with yixin to Vivo quite early, we wanted to go rollerblading at first, but I got really bad broken blisters on my toes so I couldn't make it=( Watched a movie, then went to this chinese restaurant with super nice service! Ohh well, we paid a lot for it anyway. BUT the atmosphere was really nice and the waitresses were so thoughtful- they always made sure our teacup was filled, cleared plates immediately, and even helped me push my chair in! Ahh. I felt so pampered=)

I thought the pot of tea was quite special. It sat on this glass thingy with a little candle flame burning in it to keep the pot warm. It was continuously refilled, I think we must have finished three whole pots of tea. No need sleep tonight le la!

The scenery outside vivo is always evolving, it didn't look as nice as it did today! A mild breeze kept blowing, making it very comfortable to just stand by the sea and enjoy the scenery. Simple pleasures of life!

So we just walked around to pass the time. There are SOoooo many shops in Vivo, we barely visited five places then it was time for dinner already. I pulled him into Toys'r'us and we started reminiscing  about our childhood days. We were both a fan of play doh! I wanted it so much back then but my parents didn't get it for me, so I always borrowed my cousin's to play. Yixin was much luckier, he had almost all the toys I wanted! Unfair. He was so interested in Legos too, while I thought looking at baby dolls were more interesting. AND! He didn't know the secret behind the magic milk bottle! 

There he was, thinking about the mystery of the magically disappearing milk! I thought it was pretty obvious. HAHA.

Dinnertime came very soon and the not-so-hungry us settled for chicken rice at this chicken rice shop. It was good, but the taste was...weird. Easily 腻 kinda food. Didn't help at all that we were super full by then. Blehh.

It was a very happy day out together! Never felt so relaxed before, now that we don't have the exam burden anymore. How nice would it be if every day is as blissful as today...ahh.

It's all over!

And today marks the very important end of A levels! It actually ended off very well too, with Bio paper 1 being the easiest paper of it all. I can hardly believe that we're totally free now, seems like just yesterday we got into JC and got bombarded with insane amounts of notes to memorise. Wahaha! Tomorrow im so gonna bundle all those notes up and never look at them again!

After the paper ended the few of us wanted to catch a movie at Cineleisure but didn't manage to find any good movies with an appropriate time slot. So we had out early lunch at Subway (Ohh the cookies are so very nice!) and walked around Taka to pass some time. We visited Kino and I realised books never do lose their charm. Yes i do love books, even though I've gotten very sick of those we need to memorise blehh.

We went to this super ulu Karaoke place at Katong shopping centre, my mum even told me thats where she used to hang out after school all the time. Apparently dad bought my mum her engagement ring there too! Can imagine how old that place is. It's almost full with maid employment centres la. But for 6 hours of singing and only 6 bucks per person, there's really nothing to complain about. Had fun singing/stoning/sleeping/playing for the 6 whole hours! And of course, hearing my friends sing. They sing so very well! =) It really feels so good to not be worried about homework not completed or exams the day after!

At the moment my post A levels plan is to get rid of messy notes, camp in front of computer and watch videos, go out more with my mum, exercise more, and camp in front of computer and watch more videos. I love my life =)

It totally feels like exams are over! Wasn't in the mood to mug in school so we went to woodlands for a movie. I was so craving for Seoul Garden HAHA so we went there for lunch. There was a bunch of girls screaming away and yixin kept complaining about them. I've gotten quite used to having high-pitched voices around me, high-pitched sounds are probably out of my hearing range. I was quite happily cooking all the meat heh.

Then we watched the bond movie, it was so so exciting! They must have destroyed a lot of things while filming. But must that guy love so many women-.- 

Was complaining to my mum that this two years of studies in hwachong has been wasted. Everything that came out for chem and bio could be covered in half a year-.- It doesn't do all our mugging justice at all. Argh. Looks like paper 1 will be the discriminating factor eh. Gotta work hard! It's just 9 more days to freedom YES.

Went to the market with my parents early in the morning while that pig was still happily sleeping. I was just standing around the sweet potatoes box stoning. I prefer NTUC to wet markets. The boss was like saying, "有没有看过这么美的番薯！"

And two aunties walked past looking rather amused. One bent down and whispered to me, "你说美我不觉得美呢" Then pointed out that those potatoes had a lot of nodes on it which means there are a lot of roots. Apparently thats not good for potatoes. Then she gave me a smile and went off. I learnt something new! Even my mum didn't know that. Quite surprised at how friendly aunties can be HAHA.

I also learnt today that one cannot please everybody. One can be friendly to a person, but that person may not be in a good mood or not willing to listen to friendly reminders. Then again, can we make sure everything we say comes out in the right tone? But our 'right tone' may sound bad to some others. There's still so much we need to understand about ourselves before we can even attempt to know what others are thinking. CHEEM. If only I could remain as a baby. I can cry laugh beat someone and people will still think I'm cute. Haha. Fat hope.

Just 5 more papers to go!

I hate cramps.

Its so unfair why last year's papers all so easy while our papers are ridiculous. They had to make our bio paper into a comprehension test huh. I should have just slept till 12noon today. 

Tomorrow will be a better day!

It definitely will, at least cramps won't keep me awake at like 1am in the morning. I thank the inventors of pink panadol!
