My Last Week Of Hols....
Simon's band concert @ victoria concert hall (:
it has been a long time since I last stepped into VCH. The last time was i think sec3 or 2? where I went there for duty and also to watch the choir concert. it was FUN!(:
this time was good too, but it was band concert.
very interesting because it is very different from SC's band concert.
I find that this band concert was more entertaining because all the song they played I know almost all of them,while SC plays too sopfisticated songs. haha
((: the last time we went VCH for duty.
woohoo..
had lunch with my dearest friends at sakura(:
they claimed that the food was disappointing, but i'm fine with it because there are more varieties than sakae.
after that zhiying,cheryl and i went shopping then went to meet elissa and fush at bugis.
had a great time(:
omg and yes! I went to visit Mrs Ong with samantha rachel and amilyn!
the moment i stepped into the room, wah.. the smell of chemistry which i used to smell every thursday(: and the day we visited mrs ong so happened to be a thurday too(:
I don't know why, but there is just this smell whenever i stepped into the room, and when i went there again, it just smells so familiar(: really miss chem tuition and mrs ong, but NOT CHEM!
This is where we usually have our chem tuition(: and i will always snatch the pillow to hug and sleep :D
Mrs Ong! :D
The chem tuition gang:D lovelove!
After visiting Mrs Ong, we went to bukit timah plaza to meet ruixian and sylvia for dinner. Since ruixian was craving for her tofu soap, we went to eat the korean food(: yummy!
i wanna go again!
went to kap after that(:
wah.. totally miss kap man. that was the place where amilyn and i used to go there to mug after tuition, and sometimes after school too. I do not like to eat macs, but if you want to go kap to eat, ask me along! hahaha
btw, i miss island cremery too!!!
someone go with me!!
This is the earlier part of the week.
We had bball gathering at clarissa's house to celebrate yingxin's birthday(:
The hightlight of my hols. i went to Batam for a day! shiok.
the things there are CHEAPPPPP.(:
bought polo and puma shirts, levis jeans and two dozens of J CO donuts because each only cost 67cents!!!
KFC?! hahaha so funny.
Batam's A&W is cheaper than malaysia's la!
went to their famous 933 seafood restaurant(:
I had a great hols!(: I am already looking forward to the next hols! but excluding the changing of classes! :( but when my next hols comes, it means that it's time for us to change classes already..so sad!!!
After meeting up with so many people, and hearing their complaints and how life is so much tougher now, more complicated and much more stressful, I can identify with them in all they say except for the stressful part. haha
I am not at all stress! only before and during presentations yes, but after that NO. haha
but well, i can still recall the stressful days.. hearing that they have to mug so much in JC i feel stress for them, and as compared to O's this is like many times harder. So all the best my friends!!!(: we'll can meet up again once all of your exams are over!
The one thing I asked each and every one when i meet up with them is, " So do you prefer to be in SC or to be in wherever you are now? "
The replies are all the the same, " of course SC la! " (:
And obviously my answer is the same.
No matter how much I'm enjoying my "stress free" life in school, and how much i like my class, how much i like the people, nothing can replace our time spent in SC. Even when they are in the best JCs, they always say that it is nothing compared to SC.
I guess this is probably the SC spirit(:
But I am still very thankful because God has never failed to put a smile on my face each day when i'm in school(:
I am blessed with good friends in class.
live a significant life, and be a blessing to others.
Do not die successfully, but significantly.

This is the first thing I did on the first day of my holidays.
COLD STORAGE KIDS RUN (:
It wasn't as crowded as standchart or great eastern, the feeling is just different but then can't be compared since it's KIDS RUN! haha.
It was a good experience anyway. some kids are just so adorable!
weehee.. we not only got CE points, free food, free shirt, free towel, free medal and ALLOWANCE $$$ too! 15bucks for volunteering! wahahaha afterall waking up early is so worth it! i woke up at 5AM k! but then since got so many benefits why not right! I want to volunteer for such events again(:
At night, xinyan and i went to watch angela zhang's concert!
hmmm.. it wasn't fantastic but it was nice(:
I can't believe that i saw her right in front of my very own eyes!! Ahhhh
Her songs are so nice...(:
And we met Rhea there too(:
she's so lucky la.. got free tickte and sat at the second row!
yes! Monday was Chomp Chomp with CEDRIC(:
cool right. haha.
we had dinner with our very on FACI(:
Although it was a rather short dinner, but I had a good time(:
One thing which cedric said to me has gotten me to think deeper, and at the same time reminded me to do my self reflection. I really think that everyone has to constantly reflect upon themselves to make sure that they are still keeping their objectives right. He is really observant to tell my character, and I think it's very true.
However, I thought I have already been trying very hard since I stepped into RP. I have been keeping a very open heart and mind towards everything, and i thought I have already been doing a good job. Until when he said that to me, I realised I've not done well enough.
Indeed I take some time to warm up to people and step out of my comfort zone. I don't know how to stress on how much i hate changes, but I just H-A-T-E I-T to the MAX! But God has been very gracious because I feel that the great change between my secondary school and poly (be it the culture, the people, the environment) didn't have that much of a problem for me because I am blessed with such good classmates and facis.
However, I am still a human. And because of that, I cannot deny that I can sense the difference and I admit I feel that I am also being challenged.
The things we like, the things we do, our different experiences, our different interests, our different beliefs, our different lifestyles, our different group of friends and even the way we speak are all different. I can say that the friends i have and the friends whom I've just made are like from total different planets! But you know what, I like everyone be it the past or the present because everyone has their own good points and i enjoy being with everyone!
I guess it's just called different types of JOY? (:
Come to think about it, I would rather have different kinds of friend than to have friends of the same kind. I feel that life is more interesting that way(:
we almost spoiled this sign board man! hahaahaha
Tuesday Audrie and Angela came over to my place for chicken porridge and of course to catch up with one another! It has been quite some time when we last saw each other. So of course we had a good time sharing with each other about school...
and we realised that being in a girls school is so much easier. i totally agree!
Not that we didn't have to think before we act, but well at least we don't have to think so much.
Now that we are in a mixed school, we have to take many things into consideration before we even say or do, which means to say that we have to know our limits.
All in all, my life in RP is so far so good. I'm still enjoying life (: It's really nothing compared to sce 4 and even p6 can! I was a lot more stressed when i was P6. sigh, can u believe it. haha.
well, I take it as a pay back time since I have not been able to enjoy since sec 3.
So now is the time!
Met up with Rui today! That woman will only call me when she is hungry!-.-
But anyway, it was great meeting up with her! and thanks for introducing me to that nice jap sandwich. yummy!
I'm looking forward to next week!
I'm sure it will be another exciting week because I'm meeting up with many more people!(:
Can't wait to see you guys(:
As what I read from the book Failing Forward,
" work on the weakness that weakens you".
Indeed. I am going to do that because I know by doing so, I will grow.
" change is a catalyst for personal growth".
I will try. I will learn.
But no matter what,
I am who I am,
and i am YOURS.Labels: The first week of hols
