Full day out today! Woke up early today to go swimming with boyi and dhivya. so took a bus there and while waiting for dhivay and the bus trip, discussed K.O.3an Guo with boyi! I think it is a pretty nice show, sort of like an interesting way of learning history. I mean i learnt more about the san guo battle from this show then in actual books. Who would know that there was someone named machao and huangzhong in san guo??? Yea so i strongly recommend this show! Sadly the finale is coming soon means it's ending!!!
Ok, back to the topic. So we took the bus there and walked in. For a moment we were lost but we just try out luck and take any direction, we finally smelled chlorine in the air. Turned up we could have just entered from the sports complex entrance. But the thing is, the swimming complex is closed for today! We are really some lucky thing. So we were deciding what to do, and then we decide to ask for direction to the Jurong West swimming complex and to comfirm that it is open... Cab there and found our way in.
Jurong West swimming complex is real cool! Their olympic pool is sheltered so the water their is really cold and cooling, even in the hot afternoon. So we rented floats and go around and around in the lazy pool, really fun, expect that it was shallow. Then we dived and swimming a couple laps. Now i am seriously sunburnt...
After swimming, went to west mall to buy new phone! Got a new phone line now so pls sms me or call me on my phone cause i don't want to waste my monthly bill! This is my new phone!
Not that i wan pink, but that's all they got so... So now, wait for tmr result at 8am, then off to sch we go...

I can feel the cogs of my brains going rustier and rustier everyday... Even i lost the meaning of going online everyday so i re-reading my books like the hundredth times???
For the first time in my life, i can't wait to start school and to start studying again (I am most probably going to retract these once it happens...). I fear my brain is shrinking at this very moment.
JC life looks like fun above it being hectic and crazy etc etc.... The only problem i guess i am seriously going to face is trying not to regret my decision about putting acjc as my first choice. Gotta try and not determine things by all the comments...
They are like so many different classes in jc and the class name is so ?? like 1AH2??? I hope someone can enlightment me on this. And this might just mean, girls, our plan to stick together is not really gonna work cause thye have dozen of classes and we have 1 in 20 chances. But still same sch same cca better than nothing...

Went to openhouses for JCs. Nanyang and Catholic for tuesday, ACJC and SAJC for wednesday. Nanyang left a pretty good impression, esp the teacher in which we asked some academic questions about. Next on to CJC, first thing we stepped in, they asked if we are from the feeder schools, that's like ~minus points~ immediately... Nanyang is freaking far and cut off point at 10, which people would comment that is such a waste. Catholic... Bad impression?
Then is was off to SAJC, i heard mixed comments but stepping into sch, i am deeply impression, call it love at first sight? I dunno... I am willing to cover the long distance... Then off to AC and according to comment, compering stepping into AC and SA, people generally have a better impression of SAJC. Ok glad, i am not a weird person then. After all these "shopping" around, we still can't make up our mind, so we decided to go back to sch, only to be stop by the security guard twice??? Finally managed to make our way in and talked to mr chiang.
After his enlightment, we all went for ACJC. Somehow, i am starting to regret a bit...

The day of verdict, the judgement day etc. Plenty of names for an event of a lifetime...
So 11/01/10, the day that affects sec 4-5s of 2009 around singapore. It start at 2pm and we waited and waited to get by all necessary information, announcing of top scholars, before we queue up for our result. Interestingly, Singaporean really like queueing up everything...
So everyone was getting excited, people around you are either happy with joy or breaking down. Took the result slip and saw one B at the first sub i know i screwed up even though the rest are As. Turned up i wasn't the only surprised one over a B3 in english. Only 22% with distinction (8 A1s) in the whole cohort, we are seriously the most disappointing batch huh? I mean after all the excitement, promise etc that everyone must and shall and will have to score A1 for el? I am dumbstruck...
Tore open the envelope a.k.a Form A and saw plenty of tiny words and letter, then see L1R5. Ok, i guess not bad. (Dun think i am going to say it here, but face it, it would have spread anyway, the more secretive a thing is, the more people would know...)
So, now we began another ordeal, where should we go from here?

I walked along the street and i heard many voices around me. China accent, english accent. people of many different colour. I askd myself where am i?
Over the years, we have lost our true cultures. What is really uniquely Singapore? I dunno. Singapore is just like an airport, people all over come and go some staying to help the airport function. The local were ousted out in this globalised place. Daily people are taking flight or landing on this little red dot.
I dunno blame young singaporean for leaving. Being 2nd class in your home is bad. That's why, I can't wait to take flight from this place too...

We said goodbye to 2009 and we welcome 2010. Let's take this moment to reflect on the past year...
Quoting the yahoo news, the decade opened with the 911 terrorist attack on america twin tower, an event that unite the world and rouse the western gaints against terrorism. But we closed the decade with yet another attack on an america airplane by terrorist group al-queda.
2009 was a year of many changes~at least that's what i think in the political world.
In 2009 we saw many global conferences and exchanges between world leaders. The most news-generating would preharps be the Copenhagen Summit whereby nations fight to come to an agreement on ways to reduce the repidly rising temperature by 2 degrees. I think that summit was both a failure and a success.
Success: Through this summit, normal little earthlings like us (commoners) have really unite together in our multiple rallies, demonstration and petitions. It is really only such rare occasions like disaster etc that we humans really unite...
Failure: Big pollutors countries like the us, china etc were not willing to come to an agreement to cut their polluting factors. The Summit ended with no comprising and definitely no positive effect or seemingly any effort seen at all in a collaborated efforts between the countries. Worst of all, after the summit, everyone started to blame everybody else for the failure, the west blaming the east and vice versa. Shouldn't they reflect on themselves first???
There were many other events too like the snowstorm in europe during christmas and the typoon in taiwan. Even through it destroyed housing and families, but it had also soon the nice and kind side of humankind.
On a personal note, 2009 was just a year of hardwork as o-level drew near. Making through just seemed to be so unreal and time really flashes as the o-level result draw nearer. Just 1+week to go...
Let's hope we can all start off 2010 ona good note and hopefully, this would be a peaceful year with much fun and laughter and less disasters and pointing of fingers...
