THE Mid Year Examinations

Dear blog,

The examinations are no longer around the corner. They are already here! I can't believe it! I was still struggling to keep up with life and here I am facing one of the challenges face-to-face. There is hardly any time to do anything anymore. I can't turn back too.

Wishing everyone all the best and may the lady of luck be with everyone. Including me, of course. I hope everyone will do well and I hope that I will do great!

I shall sleep now and I shall have faith and trust in myself.


Good night!

Something Wrong

Dear blog,

This is bad news. Something is really wrong with me. Something is really wrong with me these past few days. I have no idea this is so!

Something is definitely wrong when I go to school and I just can't seem to concentrate in classes! I can't seem to do my papers. I can't seem to grasp things as well as I used to!

Maybe I lack discipline nowadays. But the mid-years' are in 2 days time! This is no joke! Some how I can feel myself trying to break-free, but something is pulling me back! Something is really wrong!

I just hope that days will change! Things have to change. I think I'm gonna sleep now for a change. I've not done my homework but maybe a change in sleeping time may help. I hope it will help! I really need a change!

In need of a change,
CCA.

SWS Performance

Dear blog,

I am proud of myself today! Though I barely slept for 3 hours last night, I was able to wake up at 8 AM. Yes, with the help of Caroline and we set off to study together. Pretty sad, though. It wasn't as fruitful as I had hoped it would be.

We were at Tanglin Mall. The place was not that conducive and we moved to the Starbucks at Wheelock. Oh yeah, we had brunch at McD. It was was not really a brunch. It was breakfast, actually, but I did not eat my lunch.

We went to Paragon. I went there to watch the SWS perform, actually. I was amazed when I saw a boy maybe about 10 years old in the ensemble. He's a Japanese. Awesome man! :) The performance was alright. Got treated to ice-cream! Whee! Oh, and it's Sir's birthday today! Happy birthday, Sir! :D

We almost practically "sabotaged" sir. Haha! Cheryl and the others bought present for him and we sang him a birthday song in public pretty loudly. His wife and children were there to support him too. His children are sooo cute!! XD Haha!

To my surprise, some people actually really went forward and dance to the songs played by the ensemble! And there were quite a number of couples!

Then, I had dinner with Caroline and Siska. It's been pretty long since the last time I met Siska. About a month? We ate at Sushi Tei. Caroline had to go home first, sadly. I went to settle my M1 stuff too. Finally, my number is in use again! Good news!! :D

Oh yeah, before that, Caroline went to PS Cafe to have their salad. I passed on that one.

Stupidly, I realised that although I spent my whole day with Caroline, we did not take pictures together! -___- Pretty stupid, I feel. Anyway, I shall switch back to my old number tomorrow or sometime soon.

PS. I am in no mood to go to school agian! X_X This is bad!

With love,
CCA.

Ingkim's Mom

Dear blog,

Just a rough update on the recent going-ons.

Well, I figured that V Chia has turned 180 degrees from his former self a couple of days ago, Tuesday. Really disappointed in him. If I were his friend or something, well, I don't know. I'll be effing sad, you have no idea!

So, I ate during recess and it was Social Studies class after break. I was only late once and learnt my lesson after that. I was never late ever again! What right does he have to hold me and effing scream in my face? Seriously, if he had some anger management, or some uncontrollable disease, he should go for a check-up, I'd say. A thorough one, please.

Moving on, my exams are really near now. It's in 4 days time. Anyway, ingkim came over. Her mom had an operation and did I mention before that her mom is really nice to me? Yeah, she is. I am really grateful for that.

She's fine now and they're all in the hotel right now. They're gonna fly back to Indonesia on Monday. They've been here for about a week. Time sure flies.

Oh, and there was this really bad thunderstorm-like night. It was a Thursday night, I think. Could hardly sleep. On Friday, I joined in the dance lesson again. It was pretty fun. Had Dinika to come and join me. :) It's been soooo long since the last time I so-called "danced" with he! :D

Oh yes. Speaking of Dinika! Haha! She's been tight with Joe these days. Geez, I'm jealous, I'm tell you! Hell yeah I am! Haha! :D *clears throat* what if the two of them get together?? :D THAT'LL BE AWESOME!!! Heeee!!

I soooooo can't wait for the continuation of the story!! ^^ And speaking of Joe, miss him so. We've not really been in contact. Well, guess I pretty much know the reason why now! :D

Okay. I went over to Alfreda's workplace today. It's been pretty long since I talked and hung with her too. She's doing great! :) Awesome!

Alrights. Now, I shall sleep! It's freaking 3.59 AM!! And I'm supposed to wake up early tomorrow!! Ahhh!! SCREW ME!!

With love,
CCA!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMRIT!

Dear blog,

Yep! You guessed it! Amrit had her birthday not too long ago. Well, Phyone and I met up with her today for a belated birthday thing.

I hope she enjoyed herself today! :) It was really unplanned but I thought today was pretty fine. We caught up with each other. And the of them were practically ganging up on me! Well, we were talking about our schools and they were apparently really proud of their schools. Geez! Screw me!

Oh, by the way, Amrit is pregnant. Haha! She's not married yet too!! Hahaha! Oh, and we were comparing our countries. Me with Indonesia, Phyone with Myanmmar and Amrit with India. It was pretty funny, and the three countries apparently has many in common! :D Haha! How awesome!!

Alright. I shall sleep now! It's getting late and I have a long day tomorrow! Oh! Did I mention that I watched The Sixth Sense alone last night? Yep, I did! How amazing, huh! XD

Nights,
CCA

Alone Again

Hey blog,

My parents flew off yesterday. I don't think I've mentioned that. So, the house is empty again. And when I say empty, I do mean it almost literary. My sister has been hanging out and I've been the little angel at home.

I've been watching a couple of Bleach episodes these. Ya know, catching up and all that I've missed out. I'm currently on Episode 190 now. They're just about to get back to the main story-line. My sister introduced to me this other anime entitled Les Miserabelle, if I'm not wrong. But I'm not gonna touch any time soon, though.

Plus, I stumbled on Paula Ambul's RAH! It's a cheerleading competition show. Pretty interesting. Maybe you should check it out someday. :)

Alright, I shall sleep now. Oh, I'm missing many people right now. I hope I get to see them soon~.

Oh! And did I mention that I'm done with Breaking Dawn? I was done with it a couple of days ago! On Tuesday. And am currently on Lovely Bones. Yes, it's that book. The one with a pretty freaky beginning. I'll see how the story goes. :)

Good night,
CCA.

Choir's SYF!

Dear blog,

Yey!! Guess what? I was right!! The choir attained Silver too!! ^^ I knew they could do it! I knew they'd get a silver at the very least! :D

Glad I was right! :) Now we can all study will more ease!

Oh, and I can't wait to hear the comments the judges have for us. We'll most probably hear the comments this coming Monday, I reckon. I hope there are some great comments to make our day!

Oh yeah, speaking of which, I was introduced to this great playlist. This guy is really great, I tell you. He uploaded all bands' recordings and I can even hear our band's! And yeah, I can hear why we are not able to get any higher than silver. The recording really explains a lot. This is the website: SYF Central Judging by Velovictor

Well yeah. That's about it for now. Oh! I finally met Chenliana and Angelin again! It's been a few weeks now, hasn't it? We went to watch a movie. Oh, how long has it been since the last time I went to the movies? Ages.

We watched 17 Again. It's the movie with Zac Efron as the main character. It was not bad. Not bad at all. In fact, it was pretty good. :) Really sweet and there were some cliche parts but good overall :) Really not bad at all.

Oh, and speaking of movies, I'd like to scream at the movie theatre's managers! They're showing the nice movies these days! When I am about to have my exams in a week's time! And guess what? When I was free, there was no nice movie at all!! This is frustrating!

Yeah, sure. It's kinda good too, in a way. They're helping me to cut down on my expenditure. Oh wells, I can't wait for DVDs and free time now xD hahha! :D

All right. I shall end it here now. Good night!

With love,
CCA.

The Mid Years in 2 weeks

Hey blog!

So my parents came, but they went away 2 days ago to Malaysia. I'll be expecting them back tomorrow night.

School has been pretty merciful so far. I am enjoying it. I hope I did not say anything too fast. Tomorrow is Wednesday, and I realised a pattern in my thoughts. I figured that I have been wishing that my Mondays will pass by fast because it's a long day. Then, I'll look forward to Tuesdays. Next, I'll dread Wednesdays but I like the mornings. Thursdays will be my anti-dote for Wednesday and then Fridays seem like my off-days.

However, this pattern will soon change, I feel. The mid years are just around the corner and my big papers for mother tongue are coming soon too. I hope my parents and sister being here will help, instead of putting more unnecessary pressure on me.

Wish myself all the best! For a better tomorrow. I really hope that I'll do well in my 6 subjects!

Love,
CCA.

Arrival of Parents

Dear blog,

My mom and eldest sis arrived two days ago, which is why I'm seldom online. And I will not be online as much from now on, I reckon. My dad and some other family members will be arriving tomorrow.

I am somehow glad, yet regretful, that they are here. Glad because I finally have accompaniments in my house. Regretful because, of course, my movements are highly restricted. Like how my plans to go to East Coast Park had been cancelled, though I've planned it for weeks.

I am also glad because, with the accompaniments, I feel safer now at home. Yes, my sense was back a few days back, when I was writing about how I could not wait for the arrival of my parents. However, I did not feel it no more thereafter.

Well, yeah. That's about it now. Easter is here!! :) Happy Easter! Thankfully, I am still allowed to join Amanda tomorrow. Till next time then!

TTYS!

Mid Year Examinations

Dear blog,

With the SYF behind us, I now have a reason to rejoice. Yet, to be sad too. I rejoice that a burden had been lifted, but yet another is coming.

The mid year examinations are around the corner. I really don't want to meet them. I don't know if I'm ready yet. I only have less than 25 days. Wish me all the best!

Oh yes, the Chinese O levels are near too! Gosh.

Nervous,
CCA.

Silver Tastes Just As Good

Dear blog,

We had our SYF today, as you should have known. I am happy to tell you that we attained a silver!!! Yes, it is not a gold but silver is just as good! It is our expectation and we've hit it! Everyone did a great job! :)

Frankly speaking, I was getting pretty skeptical at the end of our performance. I went kinda moody and mute. Sure, as per normal, there were people crying and others talking to each other, comforting each other. I just went mute. Almost like the last SYF that I had, except I felt worse this time around. I was almost sure that we would get bronze, I had no idea why. It was a vibes kinda thing, ya know.

Sir said we did well, though. So did the alumni. However, I thought, they might have wanted to comfort us, that's all. As you should have known too, this is my last year in participating in the SYF. I was really hoping that I could go back to the Singapore Conference Hall (SCH) and to hear the results live.

Thankfully, we were allowed to and we went there :) As a band! Guess what? The most annoying thing ever, was the fact that we actually got to SCH on time, but Aishah, Eunice, Ting Shiuan, Candice and I were so busy trying to smuggle their food in, that we actually missed the whole announcement!

Yes, I actually went it, still looking for a seat, waiting there as though the results were about to be announced. Some of the band members who were there first were already smiling and Dhurkesh actually slapped Hi-five with me. Still, I did not figure out what had happened.

About minutes later, when I settled myself in my seat, Dhurkesh turned his head towards me and asked me where I was heading to. Obviously caught off-guard, I asked him why the hell I would head elsewhere when I was waiting for the results. It was then that he revealed of our silver achievement!

I was so shocked! So happy, so ecstatic, yet disappointed! I could not believe that we've gotten silver! And, I could not believe that I had missed the announcement! I felt like a total idiot, yet I was over-joyed! Trust me, you do not know how silly it felt! XD

And then we went to the balcony again. This time around, there were tears, joy, and laughter. All for the right reasons. :) Glad we made it! We made it.

Took lots of pictures too! I wanted to take a picture with sir at the end of the whole thing, but Aishah was so eager to leave. So yeah, I tagged along with her. The rest of the band were still there. As you should have known me by now, I like to stay behind. (I know I'm weird) And it was pretty sad to leave them behind. They might have a celebration for all I know. =/

Oh wells, most importantly, I am now able to say with relief, a big heave of sigh and mere satisfaction, "We made it."

With love,
CCA :)

SYF Day

Dear blog,

I am proud of myself today. Not too proud, but acceptable. At least, I tried to do something and not to waste it fully. I did my chores, made a point to dish up some food for myself, and I went to the gym. :)

Sadly, I did not touch any homework. Tomorrow is the SYF day. I decided not to do so and I am planning to sleep soon. It's pretty early, I know. Somehow, I guess I've exhausted myself? Chatted with Caroline. It felt as though we've not been chatting with each other for so long. Oh, I caught up Phyone too.

I had also planned on what I'm gonna do this coming weekend. Easter celebration sure is around the corner!

Oh, not to mention, I really am looking forward to the arrival of my parents and my sis. I have no idea why, but I just can't wait! Can you believe this? By the way, I am sort of having migraines right now too. Maybe that's one of the reasons why I want to sleep early.

Hope tomorrow will be a good day! I really do! All the best to me~!

Signing off,
CCA

Breaking Dawn

Dear blog,

Did I mention earlier that I was done with Eclipse? Well, yeah, I was! :) About 2 days ago and I started on Breaking Dawn.

I can't believe I've read 3 full-pledged novels in less than 3 months! That'll make 3 and one-eighth, actually. Haha! :D

Anyways, speaking of which, I need a dawn to break in my life right now too. SYF is drawing near. We're left with 5 days. Hopefully, the end of the night will come together with it and shine the first of lights.

Good night!

April Fools!

Hey blog!

Guess what? I just won myself a thousand dollars!! How amazing is that!! Well, haha. Happy April Fools' Day! XD I know, I'm lame.

Anyway, the end of March is here and the start of April comes. In 6 days time, we're about to face SYF. I am definitely going to be nervous on the day itself. I wonder how things will go. I hope I'll do fine.

Anyway, I pretty much screwed my March here and there. I hope that with April here, I'll be able to patch up those holes again.

I'm also pleasantly surprised right now. My mom told me that they are coming soon, about the 6th and it's been long since the last time I genuinely look forward to their arrival. I have no idea why. I guess it's because of some things that need to be repaired. Or maybe because of the fact that I'm hoping, with their presence here, they'll ground me from going out, or something. Yes, sadistically ironic, but true.

Kin Weng's about to fly to Perth soon. Most likely on Thursday. It's been so long since the last time I met him. It's kinda sad. Hope he's coming back soon. :) Gonna miss him ^^ Well, not like as though I did not, but the knowledge that he's no longer on the same island does make a difference, doesn't it.

Also, I met with Ogaki yesterday. He was asking if I've been hanging with Joel and the guys. Apparently, they still hang out together and I'm missing. Well, not like they care or anything, but I do wish I was there. Though it's pretty obvious that I'm pretty much unwanted. Sheesh =/

Alright. Today I was very tired. Dozed off at a few occassions. Went to take a nap the moment I reached home. Shikes. Yep, I better go now. Finish up my homework! X.X

Loving ShinHwa,
CCA :D
