back after 11 days of busy-ness! :D25/4/2009:
went to St Luke's Hospital for CIP. the place was really far off in Bukit Batok, so it look around a half hour ride to get there. huibing and i were stoning in the bus. i must say, when she's feeling lethargic, she's REALLY lethargic. i saw this sun/moon thing in the sky. it was the same thing i saw in korea. it's too bright to be a moon, and too visible to be the sun, so what it is? i, till now, have absolutely no idea.
reached St Luke's at around 9.30am. got some instructions from the volunteers there on what to do. that place was kinda scary at first, because it was quite dead, and some of the old people are really just wrinkly, pigmented skin and bones. at first, we all thought that cheng yao was really not a good idea, but after a while, we realised that some of the old folks really liked it! :D they're a cute bunch of old people. hees. jingyi and i talked to this malay lady, who then cried after our performance! please don't cry! D: then wantian was shouting at this other old lady, not in a bad way, but cuz the old lady couldn't hear well. that was funny too.
left the place at 11.15am, when we were just starting to have fun entertaining the old people D: poo. coach sent us back to school, and we made our way to woodlands for the workshop. i don't see why the coach couldn't just send us there straight.
p.s on 161, this man who sat beside me just plomped down as if the seat was his sofa, making my side of the seat bounce up. huibing laughed o.o

chinese paper 1, 2 and 3. what a lot to handle! phew at least we got over the chinese at one shot! paper 2 was kinda tough, so was the listening compre. and it doesn't help when you're sitting at the back of the class D: paper 1 was fine, just hope that i got my format right. cheng lao shi didn't scold me today, so maybe i DID get it right! yay.

did some genetic family tree thing with mrs ganesan. it was totally fun. i'm in the same branch as claudia and huibing! but we all got different blood groups though. i'm O, claudia's AB while huibing's A. sheesh. jasmine showed me her swollen bug bite (apparently). it was really horrible. looked like a rotten sunny-side-up. and she cut it out after music lesson! she said it's painful and the pus looks gross.
TODAY:
woohoo! today's the lat day of april! i thought this day would never come. don't you feel that it's been april for a long time? well i do. today's a rather OK day. cheng lao shi made us do the other letter writing topic D:< maths lesson was fun :D mrs nathan seems to be our friend, rather than our teacher, and it was more like a laughing session rather than a maths lesson. the other lessons were boring as usual. we found out today that ms zahila's engaged! congratulations to ms zahila! XD jasmine's wound was oozing blood today.
i think i should really try to update regularly, otherwise i'll have to keep backtracking, which makes my post super long.
the swine flu thing is really getting serious D: now it's a global pandemic. is it still safe for that croatia trip? hoho, good game.
