Wow... realised that I haven updated my blog for more than 1 week!! Sorry, it had been a very hectic week... really had no time to update. Well, just to summarise some of the major events that happened:

- I fell sick!! Well, it began on the 31st of Jan. Woke up with a sore throat... budden I still went for band, cause that day got Chingay, so I have to go for band... cause if I dun go out in the morning, then my dad would take it that I am very sick, and not let me go for Chingay. So for the sake of Chingay, I dragged myself out of bed to prepare for the long day ahead. However, it was worth it, as the parade was really fun!! Saw Lin Yi, Candice and Jacq around for the cheerleading segment.. and the parade was really cool!! So many different groups, except for some boring stunts and my near splitting headache and dying thirst, I really liked the show!! Hope to catch it again next year... and after that Cheng Jong and Tzyy Yih treated me to some western food for my birthday!! I really ate till very full... had to unbuckle my trouser buttons after the feast!! I hardly feel so full in my life!! Well, I digressed... on 1st Feb, my birthday, I fell really sick. Started having very bad breathing difficulties and coughs, on top of the sore throat. I was so sick I basically slept for the whole day, and din really complete my homework. Budden it was okay, as Mon was a holiday... however, the long weekend ended really quickly with me sleeping around (dun get the wrong idea!!) and doing homework. It was terrible. On tuesday, I was so sick I skipped PE... Yay!! I know I am not supposed to feel this way, but, it was road run... which was really quite a torture. Anyway, went to see a doctor that night... got some prescription and a MC and excuse from PE and band practice for 1 week... the doc was really nice to me... oh... and I did a hep b test as well... cause got special discount... well it came out negative again... so it can be considered to be the highlight of the week.

- Love Matters Programme. Hahah.... quite an interesting programme. Got to listen to some speaker talk abt love, chastity, premarital sex, infactuation, m*******tion, STDs, pregnancy etc. And to top it all off, we had an abortion show... it was kind of gross and sad... but the choice of music was really wrong!! Spoilt the whole documentary... Well, den we had some class discussion... quite funny lah... cause I got to be Uncle Agony... den there were some contraversial issues discussed... like virginity and stuff. Unlucky me got asked about virginity, den I anyhow crapped an answer and the whole class just laughed... as usual... somehow I think that if studies dun work for me, I will be a good comedian... well digressed again... then Alene Jacq dey all keep on asking me and WK about the M thing... aiyoh... such things how to answer? Oh.. and then we had a Q and A session... quite fun lah... heard a couple of teachers' views and found them to be rather interesting... only bad side was that Mr Gwee refused to answer our questions... if not would have been really fun, cause I am sure he is way more experienced than us, and can give us some pointer rite?

- Movies. Went to rent 2 movies on Friday... Hitler: The Rise of Evil and Freaky Friday. I've always liked stuff related to history, especially World War II. So, I am a sucker for these types of movies. (not freaky friday lah of course!!) Well, the show was really good... and it really showed the events that lead to Hitler becoming the Fuhrer and controlling the Reichtag. Really liked the actor... he portrayed Hitler very well.. but I can't help but notice about his hair... it's really outdated... even in those times!! Also, I am quite surprised at the portrayal of Eva Braun in the show. Always thought of her as gentle and devoted and stuff... never really tot of her as a outspoken kind... And there were other flaws in the movie... most german words were not translated... so even though I've learnt german, I wasn't able to translate all those words quick enuff to enjoy the show. Also, the show shd have included english subtitles instead of chinese ones as the actors had really strong accent that I couldn't understand. And there were too many mundane stuff that the directors chose to feature on, leaving the really inportant parts unexplained. But overall, it was really good. I think that next time I shall post my movie reviews here... cause I think I write really good reviews!! Hahah... well no time to watch Freaky Friday... but I think I will like the show, cause its the family comedy type that I always like... so hope to watch it on Sunday!!

- Econs lesson. Well, today is the first time that I think Mr Daniel Wong is really compassionate. Cause I din do my work which was supposed to be handed in on Friday. Well, he was nice enuff to let me hand in on Sat. BUt I was really not my usual hardworking self, so I negotiated with him to let me hand in on Mon... He's so nice lor!! Most teachers would have screamed their heads off if students hand up late work... and I actually had the audacity to negotiate with him... and he's not even angry lor!! Mr Wong, if you are reading this, which I think I HIGHLY HIGHLY unlikely, I apologise and will promise to hand up my work on time next time!!

- Math Quiz. I CAN"T BELIEVE IT!! I'VE GOT FULL MARKS!! Wow!! really cannot believe lor.... this is like the first time I've gotten full marks for any test and I am really glad I had such results!! Maybe this will spur me on to score even better for maths!!

- SAT. Wad a dissapointment!! Scored only 1220... no further elaborations!!

Well, so this was wad happened to me this whole week!! Hope I have a better week next week, which is again, HIGHLY HIGHLY UNLIKELY, cause there is road run and long Saturday rehearsals and a jam packed weekend and more homework!! Wow... Can't wait!! (Yeh rite...)
