gold coast~!

just landed in brisbane this morning at 6am local time(4am singapore)
the ride was squashed and tiring, worse still it was a night flight.
the day before, me and my sis reached the airport at around 4,
with all the luggages, it was a long wait. nothing much to do.
kate's plane landed around 5+ when she called! hahaha such a coincidence to be able to see her at the airport! its no wonder i couldn't contact her phone.
its good to see her back! hahaha haven't seen her in ages, and she's done with year 1 in uni!
congrats girl~! and enjoy your well-deserved break!!
we'll meet up when i get back to catch up! lols.

baby rushed down from seletar right after he was allowed to go,
the stupid place delayed him for over an hour, but luckily he still reached in time to even enjoy his popeyes dinner! lols.
but everything was so rushy, within an hour, we had to leave for the plane already.
we all said our goodbyes, my goodbye to baby was a sad one. :( ten days without seeing him. *sighs* just when he has more free time at hand.
went in, and only walked around for abit, before we left to board the plane already.
i managed to catch a glimpse of my ABSLUT rock edition! <3!!
its mine when i get back! heehee.

SIA has improved from the last time i sat it,
the screen were bigger, definitely clearer and less pixelated.
but one BIG BAD POINT was that there was this extremely tall guy sitting directly behind me, and his leg was wedged right against the back of my seat, and no matter how i pushed and pushed, he would not buldge. worse still, he wouldn't wake up from his sleep.
so i had to endure 6 hours of back-breaking pain as a result of sitting up so extremely straight.
only managed to catch two shows, harry potter and the time traveller's wife, which was BOTH SO GOOD! still, i didn't manage to finish the time traveller's wife. but i wanna know the ending badly.
the rest of the time, i was dead tired, but my extremely long days had no place in the cramp plane, and i got pins and needles for as many as up to 6 times!!! =( bad bad bad!
the minute i got down from the plane, we headed for lunch at surfer's paradise,
and went to check out the apartment we were gonna stay at.
they had everything! facilities were completely there!
i immediately fell asleep when i reached, too tired and exhausted.

oops. gtg. more the next time!

i had a nightmare...

that's what you get when you're a JC student.
even in your dreams your studies won't stop bugging you.
i dreamt that i had to do chem p2 at some coffee shop, and the question that came out was on QA.
sec school pure chem which i've never learnt. so i couldn't finish the paper,
not only that, i left out all the organic part cos i wasted my time thinking bout the hard part.
horrible horrible HORRIBLE.
luckily it was just a dream, but i lost few hours of sleep thanks to that.
studies get outta my head!
i'm just not attuned to the fact that my a's has ended, that's all.


after monday, i rushed home to get my stuff packed.
that means chucking out all my notes, and i sorted them out into a pile of notes that was all the way up to my waist, and another 2 huge bags of papers.
can you believe how many trees that equals up to?
and all that consists of 5 subjects only.
anyways, its all over now! my room and table looks so bare!
nothing at all, CLEARED! xDD
my mom can never be happier with the current condition of my room.


anyways these few days, i've been mad crazy over DDR.
lols. i know its like the oldest already, but my sis just got 2 new mats for her bday present,
so we've been hooked on that game every morning.
like some routine, and this is better than morning jogs man.
we always play the workout mode, and i sweat so so much more.
besides, its fun so i'm not complaining~!! teehee.
and using the mats is much more easier than playing in the arcade cos you have to stomp your feet so damn hard on the machines, these mats are like weight sensitive or something,
just one touch will do.


note to self: remember to pack bag by todayy!!!!

p/s: why is the stupid public holiday on friday instead of thursday?! :(


[[ oh~ you make me smile! ]]

'LAST' day of exams~!

i can't believe i did it.
i survived through A levels!! =DD
(except for that chem mcq on monday)
i'm alive and kickin` after being pulled through all the papers.
it was hell, but worth making it through!
freedom seems much sweeter now~!



to all my frens mugging for their exams still, JIAYOU OKAYS!
once exams are over, we'll have a blast!!
it just feels so weird to have something so major just come and go.
but never do i wanna repeat that again, once is enough!



i have been so out of touch with everything.
not to mention this, i haven't touched this blog since like 98238748374 centuries ago.
andd the past few weeks has been just...
studying and studying and more studying.
it gets really DEAD boring.



anyways, while i was studying, there were many interesting things that i noticed.
here's some that i actually can remember:

1) the two cleanest toilets in singapore(in my opinion) are at the Esplanade, second level near chocz, as well as Changi Airport. If only every toilet were as clean as the airport, i'll love Singapore ever so much more.

2) The Coffee Bean at Changi t3 serves the best double shot cappuccino ever! Just the right ratio of coffee and steamed milk foam!

3) Angmohs at t3 can't understand why Singaporean students love to hog tables at the coffee bean when they can be studying at libraries or anywhere else

4) christmas deco came early this year at Marina Bay, million thanks to Obama's arrival. (more pretty this year as well)

5) they change the design along the walkway from city link to esplanade every week. (last time i saw, it was something on gummy bears)

6) the pure envy i get when i know i have to head to the library to study when others are just spending their afternoon strolling around shops.

7) the guard in the Esplanade library makes his rounds every 30 mins.

8) the only store that is not overpriced at the esplanade is the convenience stall directly beside the seafood restaurant.

9) Fullerton hotel looks boring during the day, but magnificent by night.

10) coffee can keep me awake for 12 hours even when i only have 4 hours of sleep.

11) when i stack up all my notes and TYS, they're as tall as my waist.

12) Never ever go to amk library on a weekend, unless you're there at 10am to get a seat

13) sleeping early does really help you focus better(tried and it works)

14) never ever press the ON button on your computer when you're studying, it distracts you COMPLETELY.

15) who says you don't have time for workout during study periods. I have my daily dose of exercise from running to and fro from the red line to the circle line.

16) rainy days make you colder, more sleepy and less productive, so studying process slows down drastically.

17) coffee and essence brands of chicken = trip to the toilet

18) classical music helps stimulate one's thinking more than songs with music

19) i used a total of 9 pen refills during the 2 week study break and for A's

20) i wake up every morning thinking 'SHIT. one day closer to A levels."
andd i never ever have to think of that ever again~




bwahahahas. this freedom rocks!
i'm lovin` it.
i have to wake up bright and early tomorrow morning, 6am.
mom's going to some marathon thing, and i'm there for support.
baby's supposed to come along, but horrible tekong is making him stay there for tonight.
i can't get to sleep anyway, i have too many things to see!!!
too many things i've missed out on.




if not for my paper ending on friday, i would have been one of the 100+ contestants joining that 100-hour movie marathon! LOLS!
i reckon i can last a good 80 hours, IF the movies are interesting.
put on some movie that talks about politics and i won't last half an hour in the contest.
but a trip to Tinseltown Hollywood!!! andd the cash moneyy!!
$$$ all that for watching movies??
sounds too good to be true.




nevermind, no tinseltown, but i still have gold coast!!!
will be going there for holidays this thus, exactly 3 days after my last paper end.
kinda last minute thing, guess that was the only date my mom could get tickets for.
thank gawd its summer over there!
the cold is really getting to me in Singapore.
every single day it rains and rains non-stop, and the air is so chilly,
it doesn't even feel like Singapore anymore.
i know i used to complain that Singapore would be a better place if it wasn't so bloody hot all the time, but i didn't mean rain! i meant temperate climate.
rain just makes everything so inconvenient!
i miss Mr Sun, but i'll be meeting him soon in the southern hemisphere one week from now!


I have been hearing so much news on universal studios set to open next year!
i can't wait to see how everything will look like! its gonna be so much fun.
andd i'll still be on holiday!! hahas cheers~!
this year end is gonna be fun fun FUN!!
andd christmas is coming!!!
i love love love absolutely, 100% lurveeeee xmas!!
its the best holiday ever, and we should have not one, but at least 3 christmases a year!!

oh my... seems like i totally regard today as the last paper already,
note to self: do not forget, you still have a chem mcq on monday!
that's all for tonight.
i need some sleep... i swear i'm turning into a panda already.
i wouldn't mind at all, whenever i see them on the news tumbling and fumbling with each other, just makes me feel like cuddling them tightly!
my most adorable newfound siblings~
