Common Test Preparation

Hey everybody! I hope your common test preparations have been going well! I think this was my most productive holiday so far and YET I haven't finished revision for any subject yet -.-

Been a bit distracted recently because Mabel and I joined this competition to win tickets to watch Haha (from Running Man) and Skull's first showcase here in Singapore. Thanks to everyone who voted though, I really appreciate it. Mabel and I are at the top 2 positions now :) So happy~

Ok not much time to blog already, just wanted to wish everybody all the best for common tests! FIGHT ON!

Time Flies

Time flies. It's the 28th already! So much homework left. I have only done 90% of chem. Just started on Math and since I suck at Integration I keep getting stuck and feeling demoralized by it. :X Am gonna go study with Zhiqi, Shami and Maal tmr at JP library. Hopefully i can concentrate! 

Studied at JE library with Wendy yesterday. Brielle was supposed to turn up and surprise her. But he already told her that he's coming -.- HAHA. Took a few Polaroid photos with them. Here they are :) 
Awesome 3some <3 td="td">

Brielle brought a souvenir each for Wendy and I from his trip to Hong Kong Disneyland! Thanks Brielle! :D 
The background is my chemistry homework. HAHA. I don't really have blogworthy topics at this point of  time. So I shall sign off. I will do a "My hopes for 2013" post on New year's eve! Till then, sayonara. :)

Movies, getting tickets to concert, and watching a play

Tuesday:

On Tuesday, I had to accompany my mom to Bukit Timah to buy some furniture for our house in the morning. After that, I came back home and Brielle and Wendy came over to my house to watch movies and catch-up. We watched a scary movie first, at Brielle's request. It's called The Sixth Sense. Let me rate it. 4.5/5. :) I really liked it cus the kid in the movie was so cute. I wanted to hug/squeeze him. And the twist at the end was awesome! :) Totally unexpected unless you already read the Sypnosis like Wendy did. LOL.

After that we watched Mean Girls. That movie never gets old. Anyways, Brielle hadn't watched it before. After the movie Wendy and I were like "Welcome to our world. You may finally know how it feels to be us. Stuck among all these plastics." We ate a lot of snacks while watching the movie. :( I worry that I may resemble a hippo by the end of this holiday. 

I always love it when Wendy, Brielle and I come together. 

Wednesday: 

Wednesday was a busy busy day. Had to wake up at 8.30 and start preparing to go to Marina Bay Sands (MBS). So Chin and I met up at 10am and took the train to Bayfront station and we found the Sands Expo and Convention centre really fast. We thought we'd get lost. The queuing up for the tickets for the concert would start at 12pm and Chin and I arrived with at least 10 mins to spare. Contrary to my beliefs, the queue wasn't as long as I thought it would be. We were told to queue up according to our surnames. And I was the first one starting with P. It was pretty hassle free. :) Here's my ticket. :D



After that Chin and I went to the new shopping mall at Buona Vista. It looks nice from outside but I didn't really like it inside. :/ Not a very happening mall. I still like Jurong Point better. 

And then after that I went back home to shower and change clothes and then met up with Brielle at Jurong Point to take the train to City Hall. We were like, the first two audience members to arrive. xD We had to walk around and talk crap to entertain ourselves. Wendy arrived just before 7.30pm, which was when the play 4sterhome was supposed to start. My class girls, Zhiqi, Shamira, and Mazi had yet to arrive and it was raining! Since a few other audience members where also MIA, the organizers delayed the starting time to 7.40pm and the girls made it! :D 

We all got to watch this play for free thanks to Nurul, who was involved in the play. So thanks Nurul! :) The play was really awesome. It started out really intense and it talked about issues like cutting, bulimia, depression, wanting to die etc. I'm sure it struck a chord with everyone there. In one of the scenes, two of the actors did this really intense contemporary dance that left me, Zhiqi and Shamira covering our mouths as we gasped. Haha! Let's just say there was some violence. 

Towards the end of the play, the play got more humorous and the audience had a good laugh. I am so glad I didn't listen to my mother when she told me not to go for it. xD The adults aren't always right. :P 

Afterwards, Brielle, Wendy and I bid the other girls goodbye and we went clubbing at Clarke Quay.



JOKING. HAHA. We walked around the streets of Clarke Quay and talked. And Wendy laughed like a mad person. I still don't know why. HAHA. Then the other two had dinner (I was too full to eat) and then we set sail for home. It was such a beautiful night, and the river view was so breathtaking that I honestly did not want to go home. 

Reached home at about 11.30PM. :X 

Wednesday was really an awesome day, I must say. :)

Thursday: 

Planned to go gyming and then study with Ru in the afternoon. But the plan was foiled by my mom who needed me to go places with her again. -.- So I went to Boon Lay to do grocery shopping with mom and then to Hong Kah. I HATE grocery shopping. >< What a boring morning. When I came home I could have gone out with Ru to study but in the end I had a splitting headache so I took an afternoon nap instead. 

Woke up at 5pm and realised that An's flight must have left alr! I cursed under my breath and scrambled to text him goodbye. He didn't reply so I must have missed him. Damn :/

Ok now I'm going to rant. An went to Vietnam, Brielle is going to Hong Kong this Saturday, Jessica is going to Japan with our school's guitar club, Limin is in Auckland, Quan is also in Vietnam, Rennes is in China, and Yvonne is in Perth. :X And I am stuck in Singapore. Can't wait for after A Levels, I wanna go overseas!! 

Ok, I'm done ranting now. Shall go and watch TV. Think there's a new movie on. :)

Toodles. :)

Retain

You see the title of my post up there? That word hangs over my head. I can feel it's weight. All my life, I've never once worried about having to retain. And now, the possibility seems rather high. BUT I don't want to leave the friends I made in J1 behind, I don't want to disappoint my teachers, I don't want to be left behind. I don't want to waste time. One more year...this is no joke is it??

:( 10 more days left to promos and I'm not even halfway done through my revision. So much to do, and yet I just keep feeling tired. And as a result, I end up slacking or procrastinating. The timebomb is ticking, I know it, but I am not doing much to help myself. I tell myself not to give up, and yet find myself giving up time and again.

All my blogposts from now till the Promos will be about...promos. I will come here to de-stress, talk things out, and encourage myself. Jaslin, you can do it. You have done it before. You don't lose until YOU admit defeat. And didn't Mr Tan just say something along the line of you being able to get a B for Physics? How about you cooperate with him and make his words come true eh?

Maths and Physics were your best subjects in secondary school. Why are you letting your fear take away your prowess in these subjects? You're so afraid of failing that you forgot how much you used to actually like these subjects.

As for Chemistry, do you really want to let Ms Aisha down? She's leaving next year. At least give her the satisfaction of knowing that all of us in 12S20 has done well relatively well in chem for the end of year exams.

10 days Jaslin. 240 hours. Tell yourself that THAT amount of time is ENOUGH. It's SUFFICIENT. Time will be on your side, if you're gonna use it wisely.

Shall go study for my mother tongue prelims which is tomorrow. Wish me luck :)
