had teacher's day celebration in school today. i think it was kinda cool, especially since it's the last year we're seeing our teachers D: man, that's bittersweet.ok, let's start from yesterday. went to claudia's house at 11 plus to make cookies. it was really fun, cuz we used our hands to mix up the choc chips bit (we washed our hands, don't worry -.-). wantian went totally crazy over the whole cookie dough, cuz she rolled the whole thing into a giant ball and went around showing everyone her masterpiece :D haha funny wantian. made about 4 to 5 batches of cookies, equivalent to 100 plus cookies. i was the most "commited" one, cuz i stayed from batch 1 till almost the one. let me tell you, rolling dough into walnut-sized things before flattening them is really no joke, but squishing dough sure is fun, especially the part where you get to lick the stuff off your fingers after that :D max gave me that gleamy eyed look as he saw my choc-covered hands. he's funny (: he followed me around the house, but at least he's civilised enough to not follow me into the toilet XD left claudia's house at 3.30pm, along with annabel and huibing.
met noel at 4.45pm to get the surprise cake from him. he told me to be there at 4.30pm SHARP, but when i smsed him after i reached, he told me the cake's not ready yet. i was like o.o the cake was heavy and i had to call my sister down to help me carry it. it couldn't fit in my fridge, and my mum was all frustrated and annoyed. but lucky for me, she managed to get one of my grandma's friends in the same condo to tongpang the cake. phew~
reached school at 6.30am this morning to deposit the cake with the drink stall people. i tell you, they can be pretty mean if you're asking for a favour rather than patronising in their services D: so much for always buying drinks and snacks from them! DX had the skipping challenge thingy after assembly. there was one point where we saw this teacher whom we thought was a judge, and we jumped 24x20 times! only AFTER we jumped, he said he's not a judge, and we were o.o!! when the REAL judge came, we only managed 16x20 times D: gahh. pretty frustrating, but at least we got 3rd place in the whole school (:
after skipping, we had the surprise. waited like half an hour before both teachers were ready. didn't really feel like a surprise anymore. popped party poppers when they came in. it's been a super long time since i held a party popper :D so, yeah. sang "happy teacher's day" to the tune of "happy birthday", then cut cake and took class photos. i smiled till my facial muscles almost cramped up and stayed that shape. no kidding man. managed to finish the whole cake in less than half an hour. it was good.
went to hall for teacher's day concert. the first few performances were good, especially that band from 1 charity. the 1 charity performances weren't as comical as what my sister described it to be though D: it got a little strange after that. i've got nothing to comment about the other performances o.o congrats to mr chang for winning the lamest teacher award, and mrs nathan for winning the most homework teacher! :D our class can provide a testimony for mr chang's lameness and mrs nathan's homeworkiness (:
had the last music coursework session after school, when most of the students have already gone home D: well at least we're officially done with it! :D
1st september tomorrow, which means one more month before O levels! getting increasingly excited by the day :D

back for a bit, everyone :D i'll just be sprinkling posts every once in a while. just wait for stinky O levels to be over in less than 100 days (oh why are these last 2 months moving at such an excrutiatingly slow speed? D:) ok anyway, i have some free time for now because prelims (horrid) just ended, so the teachers will be going through papers these few days instead of vomiting homework at us.teacher's day coming soon, so i just hope they sorta lay back on the workload. after all, we're such GOOD STUDENTS! :DD haha.
doreen's going to harbin next week, and she's sick now. God bless her soul (: going to send her off at the airport :D can't wait! (to go out with church friends, not send her outta town :O) LOL.
my piano exam results will be coming in maybe 2 weeks. hope i pass (won't mind even if it was a 100 marks) because i like to collect my exam certs. have the music ones from JMC to grade 6, not a single one short. teacher said that if i fail, i'll have to brush up on my skills before they can upgrade me, no need for exam as she said i'll have to learn the new syllabus songs which will kinda be a waste of time. i know it's time-consuming to learn the whole grade again, but that'll mean that i'll be short of 1 cert! D: kinda wasted if i look back at how many i've collected, and suddenly there's a gap there -.-
i'm retaking my chinese at the end of the year. actually i was planning to totally forget it and recycle the chinese stuff, but then i got a sucky b3. had this dream a few days before results that i'll get a b3, and true enough... someone must be trying to tell me something. so anyway, i'm stuck with cheng lao shi and 8 other 4 hum students for the next 2 months.
i wanna go out with my peeps someday, to catch a movie or something. haven't gone out with them since we celebrated jingyi's birthday at pasir ris! about 2 months now. and i haven't gone out with huibing at all yet! after Os, there'll be so much catching up to do with all my friends scattered around this teeny island.
to tingying: yes i haven't gone out with you for a long time too! D:
this morning i heard on radio that experts claim that wednesday is actually the most horrible day of the week. they comapared 2.4 million blogs (maybe mine's one of them?) and looked at certain descriptive words people used for each day. words like "exciting", "awesome" etc were given high scores while words like "unlucky", "depressing" etc were given low scores. of course, we all know that weekends will come out tops :D but betcha didn't know that MONDAY came out to have the next HIGHEST score! WEDNESDAY had the lowest score. just when i was about to hear the reason for this, i had to drop off at school already -.- what luck! to me, i think how sucky a day is depends on what events there are on that day.
addicted to "love drunk" by boys like girls and "candles" by hey monday :D nice songs, though i often forget the tune o.o
well got to go now. need to prepare for school tomorrow, oh sheesh.
