10:30 AM Yoh well.. i really have nothing to do now thats why im blogging again.. haha..
IM STILL IN MY SCHOOL AT THIS LATE HOUR!!
I have this CAS thing in my IB programme that i am doing now so i have to get some hours of doing some sort of 'community service' which is what im suppose to be doing at the moment but you all can guess what im doing now.. hehehe..
IM REALLY REALLY HAPPY TODAY!!!
Ms scotti, my english teacher, gave me my marks for the IOP (individual oral presentation) that i did last wednesday.. I GOT 23/30!!! heehe.. this is A LOT better than i had expected myself to have done!! i was thinking that if i got like 20i would be super happy already but then i managed to outdo myself!! =)
acutally i have to say that the reason why im so scared about the marks is not because i dont think that i presented it well, in fact, i dont think that there is anything much to fault with my way of presenting (afterall, we had had lots of practice last year when preparing for PW OP so there is no problems in this area.. not much anyway..) what i was really worried about was my content. This is ENGLISH LITERATURE that im taking now, not GP so yea.. my literature has always been AWFUL so it is only natural that i will panic about not having the correct/enough content in my presentation. In the end my marks showed that i did not do too badly, at least according to my standards. As im the 2nd person in class to present and the last person will only present like one month from now (there is only 12 people in my english class you know..), i wont really know how good my score is at the moment. If everyone in the class ends up getting like over 25 then..
i shall not think about it for now.. should remain happy for a longer period of time.. hehe.. tomorrow the 4th person is going to present.. at first i was thinking that im rather dumb to have agreed to be the 2nd person in the class to present but i guess that it was, like what ben said, 'better to get it over and done with' than to drag on and i have to worry about it for a longer time. Ben was the 'brave one' who agreed to be the first person to present.. hehehe.. so currently the two of us, along with andrew who presented today, are SUPER RELAXED about IOP and we are telling everyone who has yet to present that 'EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE!' or 'IM SURE YOU WILL DO WELL'.. hehehe.. its so nice to be the one reassuring and comforting people than to be the one who is being comforted =)
wow.. i didnt know that i have so much to say about my IOP.. hahahaha..
OH! ONE RANDOM THING TO COMMENT ON.. MY TYPING SPEED HAS IMPROVED TREMENDOUSLY EVER SINCE I CAME HERE.. HEHEHE.. MUST BE DUE TO THE FACT THAT WE HAVE TO USE A LAPTOP IN SCHOOL EVERY SINGLE DAY. QUITE COOL THOUGH.. I DONT MIND USING MY LAPTOP EVERYDAY =)
Lets see.. what else to blog about?? oh yea.. ive will be doing aerobics every friday from now on.. hehe.. and i think i shall start going to some yogo class or something.. oh!! and i really want to start learning a chinese instrument, afterall, im in china so i should take the chance to learn a nice chinese instrument to add on to my piano playing skills. oh yea!! i also really feel like learning how to play the guitar, the music produced from there is really lovely. In addition, i dont think it will hurt if im going to get my youngest sister who is learning the violin in school at the moment to give me a lesson or two on what she has learnt. It seems like i have planned out a really packed schedule for myself. But it really is cool to learn more instruments =)
Talking about school, my school actually offers psychology as a humanities subject and currently all the psychology students are all rushing for their internal assessment which included them carrying out acutal tests on students to varify their results and so on.. to relieve them from a bit of their stress, most of my level people have been very kind to allow ourselves to be 'tested' by our peers.. hahaha.. i guess i trust that they wont damage my brain or whatsoever..
gosh.. im really super HUNGRY now!!!! awww.. i can just imagine my yummy dinner waiting at home for me.. hehehe.. makes my mouth water..
ooo.. i just want to say, in a way, i sort of love my life more now. NOT IN THE SOCIAL SORT OF POINT , i mean, i still prefer my social life back in singapore as compared to this. What i love more now is the fact that my dad actually spends more time with us now. In the past, every weekday night, he come home so late from work that we never have a chance to eat dinner with him but now, he comes home every night to eat with us and on better nights, we actually have lively conversations at the dinner table. My mum, i guess that her job has been very stressful on her and so her health detiorated and she was rather weak back in singapore. However, even though i know that it is boring to stay at home and be a full time housewife, i have to say that her health has been improving. Anyway, WE HELP WITH THE HOUSEWORK AS WELL!!! hehe.. i must say that i have been taking my previous life for granted. The life with a maid present to help me do the household chores and help me with stuff.. hehe.. ive been living with a maid ever since i was 3.. around there.. and this is the first time that my sisters and i are left without a maid to care for us. Tough luck but i guess we can cope =)
oh well.. ive really posted long long posts and im not even sure if anyone can reads them though i assume if nothing goes wrong it will be visible on my blog which everyone in singapore can access.. haha..
guess i better go now.. im really looking forward to going home though it means a 40 minute walk home in the rain =(
till then.....
