Recent happenings

To kick things off, I'll probably talk about how I had spent the past few days of my post-exam.

Friday, 13 November 2009

It was the day that most of us are waiting for. Chemistry Paper 1 was the finale of the three-weeks long 'O' Levels Examinations. Prior to the paper, most of the people were already discussing their post-examination plans. Particularly about their status of their prom-shopping, or making plans for shopping trips after the paper. So I guessed it wasn't that tensed for most, but the anticipation for the paper is definitely there. Chemistry paper wasn't that conventional, that is not typical as you saw in those Ten-year series. I thought I would do some silly stuffs at the end, but I guessed you could still call me a fool for that grin. Walked with some of the guys in the class to the opposite site. There was a new bubble tea store, selling drinks at a competitive price of $1. Not that I'm that interested though, as I doubt I would be around that area so often anymore. Walked to the bus-stop with Yong Jian as we planned to head to my place after school. We missed one 854, and along the way we talked about school, teachers, times together. Had a great time playing FM3 and chatting with him. Around 3.30pm, he went off.

(FM3)

After which Jo came as we had agreed. He needed some ideas on a project he was working on. Along the way, we talked about past times and relived those moments. Stupid stuffs that we did together, how immature looking back. Part and parcel I guessed. Finished the work at around 7.30pm and he went home.

I guessed in life there are friends that come and go, but only the good ones stay with you for life.

(2012, world ends. Mm.)

Hell yeah! First day of post-exam. I think you wouldn't believe me, but I did woke up at 7.00am and went down for a jog. I guessed the price you had to pay for not keeping fit for long are your arms aching for a straight two days. The day was planned for me to shop for my prom stuffs, and my first stop was Northpoint. Mum went for her scheduled TCM session as I waited outside after breakfast. As it was still too early and most of the shops weren't opened yet, mum and I decided to meet back after 15 minutes. I went to the arcade and literally threw four bucks down the drain. Quite fed-up as the machines were... Sushi!!! Hah, I hoped to quit vulgarities for good. Everything will be replaced with... Sushi. Sushi are nice, at least I think. Didn't managed to get the stuffs I wanted, so trained all the way to Jurong East IMM. And I didn't get anything there as well, so trained to Causeway point. Well, at least I got my lunch there. Mum went home afterwards and I trained to Dhoby Ghaut to meet Plato, her sister and Yong Jian. I was late, but quite on time actually. The movie starts at 3.00pm, so we hurried to Cathay for 2012. The movie was rather long, and hell the stuntman and CG is good. As always, lessons to take away is always cherish what you have, and the ones you love. The movie was rather long, and the credits rolled, many started leaving the hall. We decided to stay put and see if we could be the last ones to leave. We lost as we were chased out earlier. Walked around Plaza Sing afterwards and we found great food at great prices at the basement! :D I went off earlier and trained to AMK to meet mum for dinner, or at least for her dinner. In the end the day was futile and headed home empty-handed.

Sunday, 15 November 2009

Met up with my fraternal side family as my grandmother's birthday was round the corner. Come to think of it, it has been a long time since the whole, big family met for lunch. Laughters and chatters, along with the eating. Little tyrant, my 9-year old cousin was as playful as usual. And a lot heavier. Went to orchard area to continue my hunt for prom attire. I was thankful to have bought what I wanted and went to IMH with mum to visit my grandma.

(Where did the black one went?)

Went to Northpoint in the morning to get a pair of jeans. Had a quick lunch and trained to Bugis to meet CS. I got there early, and I waited. Shopped around as he wanted to get a gift. He sure is generous. Anyway, he went off at around 3.30pm and I met up with Wei Ping after that. He wanted to shop for prom attire, so I gladly accompanied. Still as humorous as ever, we went to Topman first. He picked a shirt, tried on and purchased it. That's cool. And there's this inside joke that I think it wouldn't be nice to share here. Next on the list was a belt, so walked around and yeah, he got it swiftly too. The day was done, so after my suggestion and his opinions, we trained to Yishun and took 812 to Safra Yishun. Pool for an hour, and there was one round where both of us didn't noticed that the black 8 went in. We were still hitting our stripes and solids. He finally enlightened me. Guessed I was the one who hit the 8 in previously, so lost that. Dragged ourselves to the bus stop and had a short chat with him on 85. Bade farewell.

Today,

I didn't have much plans for today. Much of the shopping was done, just that my pair of shoes weren't ready. So went to AMK, then to J8. Settled for a pair and had lunch with mum at Yoshinoya. Oh yeah, I think we saw my cousin there. Trained home first, and thought a lil' while for some plans during the afternoon before I head to aunt's place. Initially was thinking of riding to Yishun Dam area for photography, then squeeze in for a swimming session. Who knew mum came back before I commenced my plan, so... :( Did some more cleaning up for this blog and went live. Sheesh, I think its been a long time since I last spent so much time in front of the screen already. Aunt hasn't called yet, so I cycled to Safra Yishun for a swim session. There were a lot of clouds, and I think I need some time to get back my stamina. The water never felt so great before. No need to think about which TYS to hit next, which chapters to mug for. Just swim. Cycled back as the clouds thickened and went over to Aunt's place after that. Its been two weeks, I think, since I last went over.

Tomorrow?

I don't know. I don't have much plans currently, the only affirmative would be grad night @ 7.00pm. Meet-up, at last with the 205 guys.
