JJC Sports Meet 2013

The June Holidays have officially started!! :D And the Sports Meet today went relatively smoothly, apart from a few stumbles, and the "undesirable" weather. HAHA.

I am just glad Keith was my partner for the emceeing. Since we're already friends, it wasn't awkward at all. I'd like to thank Miss June for giving me the opportunity to host this year's Sports Meet despite the fact that I have so little prior experience. Thanks to Mr Sufian for mentoring us before the event, and Mr Chen for guiding us during the event itself.

To be honest, it is not really easy to host an event. It is easiest for those who do not care about what people think about them or are just very self-confident. Because then they would let their guard down and go all out with the hosting. So I guess doing things like this has helped me to become tougher, learn to be self-confident and not care that behind my back someone might be saying "Eh, that female emcee sucked today." I hope not though! So far I have only heard "well dones" from my friends, and that's really sweet of them. Thank you! :')

Congratulations to the winners and participants! 

As much as I am grateful that it's the holidays and I can wake up late, hang out with friends etc, I MUST MUST MUST utilize the next month well. I do not want to screw up CT2. I  just hope that I can overcome my desire to just camp in front of the TV for 24hours. This is what happens when you have a lot of channels ><

That's all for now. Too tired to type anything else. Shall finish watching my Bollywood dramas then it's off to bed! Nights! :)

In my dreams

He is so far away
and yet I still
think of him everyday 
against my own will

If he charged me every time he came to my mind
I would be a beggar lying on the street
with a dejected heart and cold feet
someone please be kind
fly me to him - quick! 

His memory is therapeutic
His smile is beatific
His charm could ensnare a beast
Who am I to resist?

It is not desire, it is not lust
I cannot define it...but if I must -
I would call it an attachment and a hope
that one day he would fancy me back and we would elope
into the sunset, holding hands
me in my white floral dress, him in his black leather pants

ps. Got the inspiration to write a poem after so long! Happy to see that my artistic abilities are still here and I am not just a pool of maths and science. :D What do you think?

Random updates~

Have a lot of random little updates. Firstly, Chemistry A Level SPA is over and thank GOD it went smoothly - unlike last year when I couldn't manage my time. It went so well this year I can literally cry; that's how thankful I am. Although SPA is just a few percentage of the overall A Level Chemistry paper, it can be the difference between an A and a B. Physics SPA is next Wednesday and I hope it goes just as smoothly! :) Good luck to everyone having their SPA next week! :)

Secondly, my mom had a fever on Thursday :( Been taking care of her like how she usually takes care of me. It stinks when a family member is ill, don't you think so? The house somehow becomes less lively. Thankfully, my mom's recovered already. :)

Thirdly, I finally got my hands on the novel Life Of Pi. Although I don't have much time for reading, I will still try to complete it by the end of June nonetheless. One does not simply miss out on such great reads.

Fourthly, had a physics, General Paper, and maths test recently. Only got back the compre paper for GP though, which I passed by the skin of my teeth. I NEED TO IMPROVE MY VOCAB. I find it so difficult to change the words sometimes. :( And of course, I need to work on my general knowledge too. We might be getting back our essays this Monday. Hopefully I do well!

Anyways, I went to meet Mabel after school yesterday! We printed some photos through digital printing, will print more next time! So far I only printed one of my 15th birthday party and one of my mom at the Good Friday memorial this year :) After that she came over to my house and I kind of helped her with her presents for her mom and grandma. (Mom's birthday and grandma's farewell gift)

Was supposed to go to the library today with Zhiqi, Shamira and gang BUT my mom suddenly said she is not feeling well again and there goes my decision to go out :/ Dad isn't at home you see.

One last important update. There are many things that I want to be when I grow up. One of them happens to be the editor of a fashion magazine. (I know I don't look the part, don't judge me ><)
But I really don't know how in the world to go about doing it. So I wrote an email to Ms Kamei, the editor of CLEO magazine asking for advice and guess what? She actually wrote back! So tocuhed :') She gave me really good advice and I will remember it for life. Who knows, one day I may be working for her :)

That's all for now. Shall go get started on Chemistry homework!
