Burnt... ouch..

The circuit board assembling competition was held today... I substituted for Zhu Yi, hehe.. It went quite well, suprisingly.. I did alright I guess, Yan Yi got first again, congrats to her!! : ) Zheng Jie didn't do well though, but at least he tried, he said he wanted to gain experience.. Three of us sat together during the competition, we got new soldering tools, too.. = = I was relieved that I didn't need to fiddle with the old ones that don't heat up..

I helped May Leng with hers after I finished mine, she seemed to be struggling with it, together we tried to fix it as we faced time and time again, the words "TRY AGAIN, there's something wrong with it..." by En. Halias as he kept on smiling.. = = Got burnt here and there as I held the components for her as she used the soldering tool on them, yeah, they're conductors, so it was really stupid of me to hold them.. But at least after trying and trying and when she was about to give up, we tried one last time... and it could work!! We were ecstatic.... So it was worth it to see her so pleased, haha... Each of us received a file as a token for our participation.. Yue Shi and Jia Ying took part as well..

Still working on my headgear thingy for Art, wonder whether it'll come out right.. I don't think many of my classmates would actually make it.. oh well, it's good fun trying to make it, haha. So it was quite a fruitful day indeed!! Kudos to myself.. : )

I wanna work hard..

I wanna work hard... but it seems hard to work hard.. haha.. I try to read or do revision but I tend to get caught up in playing games, I know, I was nothing like that last year.. But I feel like I'm enjoying my time in school more, so it's.. er okay... : )

70+ days till PMR, time really passes quickly, I've been in that school for three years already.. PMR seems like a big deal, ugh.. Jing Ni said she'd get a new handphone, cash and a er... nice dinner or something if she scores straight As while Mun Yee wants an iPod touch.. It feels like bribery... Oh well, I don't expect anything from my parents, coz exams are just an evaluation of how much you have learnt, so there's no need to go overboard over it.. No doubt I too, won't feel happy if I don't get good results but we shouldn't push ourselves over the line.. And me being the 'kan cheong' type, I get tensed up quickly, really hope I can take it easy.. Have to put in more effort for my piana exam for me to be able to pass, literally..

Hope to have a good week ahead, oh I'm tired... : P

Spot..check..

Hehe, we got checked from head to toe after the assembly and a 'thorough' spotcheck in class.. The prefects went through our bags, files, pencil cases or anything that could be used to hide stuff, kinda funny but it was quite frustrating when everybody's liquid paper got confiscated.. My friend even hid her handphone in the bishy potted plant..Today felt really hectic when I sacrificed my recess time to look for stuff in the library, sounds nerdy... haha... Oh well, I found great stuff for my essay but it wasn't going to be marked by the teacher, too bad...

I feel really good after my class was announced as the cleanest class for last week, it sounds unimportant but it means quite a bit to me, haha... Sometimes I wish my classmates would be more proactive in keeping the class clean but I'm always left disappointed.. Worked hard mopping the floor yesterday, my friends said that I wasn't being 'elegant' or something mopping the floor on a chair.. haha.. that was really a weird experienced, since I'm used to being a prim n proper, demure girl since young, haha..

Hope to be the cleanest class for next week too!! : )

Lost and cannot be found..

Today was a really unlucky day.. Money was stolen from our class, it's really frustrating as one by one our classmates report their money missing.. The er.. thieves even took all my coins from my bag... talk about desperate.. Seems like my english oral test went quite well yesterday.. The examiner was a Chinese that converted to Islam..

Today, Yik Fei said they're in support of my efforts in creating a cleaner class or something like that, and he said I always looked sad... I just smiled.. I have to admit I've been sulking a lot lately, I don't intend to be like that but I can't really help it.. I'm so used to being the strict, no-nonsense type since I was a kid... Sometimes I burst out laughing, but that's actually the normal side of me, relaxed and 'real'.. Hope I'll be myself more often, haha.... Chee Hoong said if we are announced as the cleanest class for the month they want me to go up on stage, it's a small matter, but I think they're really optimistic...


Ah, the taichi agm will be held tomorrow.. and the pengerusi is unbelievably one of my best friends in the club... Hope to be happier as the days go by.. fighting!! I guess I've been watching to many korean shows, haha...

School's started for about 2 weeks already.. Still not quite used to it, still stuck in holiday mode, can't seem to get back into the 'hardworking' swing, haha.. Jun Yee was so er.. kind, I suppose, to treat us to some of her birthday cake, Happy Birthday!! :)

There was an education fair conducted on a small scale in our school. It was quite good I think, for a first-timer like me, although I kept questioning myself whether I was too young to be browsing aroung like the form 5 students. On the other hand, I did gain some experience and found some interesting courses.

At first, I didn't feel like going, but after Mun Yee and I saw that our friends get freebies from the fair, I thought why not? I mean there's no harm in looking around.. Went round and round looking at the booths one by one, some seemed rather interesting, and others seemed dead, er.. dull.. I mean... Just as I was looking at Berjaya's booth, the person in charge of the booth asked me to sit down, I thought oh no, I won't be able to understand a thing, I even started having cold sweat... haha.. He explained the culinary arts course and to my amazement, it really caught my interest and I had an instant liking to it..

I was supposed to be scavenging for brochures on pharmacy, coz I always thought I was going to be in that line, but hey, things change as time passes.. Anyway, I still have about 3 years to thinks about it, sometimes it seems like a whole load of time, and sometimes it feels like it'll disappear in a flash.. I'm gonna keep my options open, not about to decide now.. I don't think my friends really have a course that they like in particular, well, except Cheah Chooi Mun. I lost track of where my buddies were and ended up with her, she said she really wanted to study medicine, to me it seems really tough.. She said that interior designing, culinary arts and a whole bunch of stuff was not suitable for us.. us?? Man, I was a bit ticked off but I came back to my senses and continued walking around with her..

Only one more month till my piano exam.. I'm really bad at music, haha... Don't think I can do well.. Trying to work harder.. :)
