My Life

Life so far...

2010-04-28T22:35:00.003+08:00

iWent...

Konichiwa! Yes, I haven't been writing for quite some time le, I'm lazy! hahaXD Anyway, getting back to the topic, I'm having fun in Poly and at the same time having lots of things to do!! There's lots of preparartion for lessons we have to do, events, planning for our project work and research for individual assignment... Super crazy sia, but still more relaxed than JC la! :D

Oh yes, and there's a new girl in our class, called Sarah Chan, and guess what? She's MW's ex-TJC classmate!! haha, what a coincidence!! :D

Anyways, I went to Sentosa's RWS just recently (last Saturday). That place is awesome man! I totally felt like I was overseas! No need for travelling, haha! OKay la, not soo exagerated la, but it's really nice! :D

Oh yes, then this Thursday I went Ikea with some of my classmates. The food was not bad, just kinda pricy ya! However, I like the way they sell their specialties! All self serviced, love it! :)
We actually wanted to study after that, but they don't feel like it so we just walked around. However, some of my friends and I went back earlier...

Then finally comes the Gorientation I went for yesterday... It's really fun, I'm just ok scared! Just one tiny bit negative point, the "wanderers" screamed just beside my ears and I think I might go deaf then!! haha, but overall it was exciting! I think our class bonded more. :)
After the whole thing Penny, Cat and I took bus 69 together and we were like talking about real life ghost stories... That kinda freaked me out man!

Yup, tt's all so far. Just one thing, CCN day for TP is coming up! (7 May 2010) It's also TP's 20th anniversary! Lessons as usual till 11am, then we have a charity funfair! Well, kaynow! Till then, bye!

¡Hasta Luego!

1K01...

2010-04-21T09:36:00.002+08:00

iBegin my school life in TP!

Bonjour! My school life in TP finally started on 19th April after such a long, and I say rather mundane break of approximately 4 months. My class for this AY2010/2011 is 1K01 of LRM!

Yup, my class is rather friendly and in my opinion, we could communicate fine with each other. The majority of 1K01 however, is made up of girls. There are only 5 guys in the entire enrolment of 22 in 1K01. Haha. Most of the time we girls would be in our own groups and the guys their own. We have been meeting up before every lesson this week so far. Today, some of us would be going for the CCA recruitment drive to take a look.

Moving on to the lectures itself, I find the subjects' lectures I've attended so far are rather acceptable. I'll be studying 7 subjects at the moment, not sure if more to come. However, I kinda dislike our Care Person (CP), in other words a Form Teacher, as she is rather impatient and a wee bit weird.

Summing up, school life in TP is fine, just rather crowdy everywhere. I think I could get used to it! Just a little disappointed in the annual class changing system; I wouldn't be able to be with the same classmates for 3 years... Kay now, Au Revoir!

¡Adios!

More intro of LRM...

2010-04-16T23:41:00.002+08:00

iCheered for TP Business today!

¡Hola! Today is another day at our sole 2 days of freshmen orientation! I was introduced more about my course (LRM), the life in TP and the rule and regulations. TP also had the olympiads, cheerleading and regatta 2010.

On this jovial day, we the Business School took home the overall championship the sixth consecutive time! Hip hip hooray! I'm so proud of my school! :) Today's a great day except for the segment that required us to stand in the grass patch spectator area.

It was full of our mother nature's unwelcomed creepy crawllers! What a scary sight. Let's see, we've got caterpillars, brown bugs, ants, flies, spiders, and many others that I may not (and luckily) have noticed or encountered.

On the other hand, other suprising incidences happened too! I met Carol Gan, Zhi Qing, Bing Xin, Annabel Chow, and others unexpectedly in school! I also met up with Shalin after the whole thing and we went dinner together with Zhi Qing. In TP, it's really kind of a small world!

To end off, I would like to mention again that I had a blast of a day and made new friends in TP. :) The orientations' great. I'm glad LRM is having another personal one! Yay! I really look forward to it... Oh yes, and now I'm still deciding whether or not to join LRMIG, haiz... Au Revoir!

¡Adios!

TP orientation...

2010-04-15T22:57:00.003+08:00

iParticipate in Business orientation!

¡Hola! I just found out last night online that I belonged to 1k01 (my class), and Penny will be in 1k07 for the AY 2010/2011!! What a disappointment! We can't be in the same class... Awww man...

Anyway, things with my class turned out pretty well and I had a lot of fun and made new friends! I even added them on Facebook as soon as I got home. My class ha 21 people, well not so bad at all! In this way, it will be better to focus and learn more! People in my class were really nice, one even lent me $6! Yay:)

I learnt the mass dance again today, with a foreign partner AGAIN! Haiz, I really wanna do it with my friends... Anyway, we also learnt new cheers today, for business school. Man, there is a lot of cheers, but they were really fun:) Tomorrow we'll be having cheerleading, olympiad and the temasek regetta. Anyway, there will be another Scarfo dinner gathering. I wonder if I should go..?

Nevermind, I'll decide on that tomorrow. Got to reach TP by 8.15am, so gonna sleep! Anyongkasayo and Buenos noches!

¡Adios!

A busy day...

2010-04-13T22:40:00.002+08:00

iMeet my friends today!

¡Hola! Today's kinda a hectic day. Firstly, I woke up at 1.30am in the morning after a call from my sister saying she's back. My mom and I then got dressed and got out of the house to fetch her home from the airport. My sister sure bought lotsa stuff home man! Mostly food and her clothes, but she got me a bag... :)

Okay, then we had supper (or shall I say semi breakfast?) at McDonalds before heading home. We actually thought of sleeping there till it's 6am in the morning so we can take the public transport home (sure to save money). However, we came home anyway and the trip home costed $18+!! Crazy expensive. Btw, I had fun unpacking the stuff my sis brought home. :)

Then my mom and I were supposed to go swimming at 8am in the morning as it's rare for her to get a day off that crappy job. However, I was too tired and am a very stupid, stubborn, irresponsible and unsensible girl. I declinced to wake up when she tried to wake me up once as I was too tired. Then, here comes her cold-blooded boss calling her to go work at the useless dump. When I finally convinced myself go wake up, I saw my mum already having her breakfast and having to go work. IDIOT ME.

I can't be bothered with that anymore. Anyways, I then went to meet up Valerie, Penny and MW in KC for the collection of our year books, certificates and testimonials. We went for an ice-cream at McDonalds after that. However, the wet weather just made our day a drenched one. We had to run across an unshelther area to McDonalds!! The wind was soooooo big!

Carrying on, Valerie went for tuition, MW and Penny went home while I met my friend Najlaa at Eunos MRT before going TP for Scarfo's dinner gathering. I had to walk back and forth from the bus stop to the train station, please just don't even ask why... Thus, we had dinner with our Scarfo. It was a kinda awkward, being left out and can't mix with the crowd kind of situation for us. All I can say is that I hate this awkwardness.

I went home after that. That's the end of the story. Bye.

¡Adios!

Going to work...

2010-04-11T11:42:00.000+08:00

iGo to work!

¡Hola! Yup, in approximately 3hours time, I'll be going to work! I dread it, but I wanna earn some pocket money to spend... So I guess, I have to jia you! Go go go!

I kinda didn't go for the FOC on Friday night as Najlaa's parents think it was too late. I didn't wanna feel awakard there, so I stayed home to accompany my mum. My sis went to Tokyo, Japan so the house feels kinda empty... Anyway, she'll be back soon! Yes! She told us it would be early next week! Yippee!

Anyway, I'll be working at St. Regis hotel as I was assigned to be under it by my recruitment agency (TCC). The advantages are that I can stop work during school and continue anytime! All I have to do is to make a booking for my job before going. The disadvantages are that the recruitment agency absorbs about 40% of our pay and that that the person in-charge of the bookings for St. Regis hotel is very irritating! Yes, yes, the pay is kinda sad :(

Anyway, I'll be meeting my best friends in KC next Tuesday! Yippee! We're going back to collect our testimonial and year book. Oh yes, and week 0 of my AY2010/2011 starts next week! I guess my holidays are finally coming to an end... Oh man....

That's all for today, sayonara!

¡Adios!

Candy Dedication

2010-04-08T22:12:00.000+08:00

iMiss my sister

¡Hola! It's a another plain and boring of April... My parents at work, my sis went to Japan and I am at home alone, pathetically typing on my laptop. I guess after the past 3 days of fun activities, this day seemed to be even more mundane!

Anyways, my sis only returns next week! What a bummer! I really miss her... AND the Japan goodies that she's gonna bring home! Lol.

Anyway, I made up my mind and I decided to go to TP's performance night and JAM&HOP session tomorrow! Najlaa is going with me! Penny's also going, but she's from Zadas and she'll be going with her friends. So I'd feel extra when she goes mix with her FOW buddies... Luckily, I have Najlaa, my dear Scarfo buddy!

Anyway, here's the Scarfo cheers:

S-C-A-R-FO
Scarfo up in FO
A, B, C, D, pah buey doh
1, 2, 3, 4, 64
Oh, oh, pah buey doh (x3)
Oh... S-C-A-R-FO (clap twice)
We will kick your (sniff your finger) hole!

We say 1, 2, 3
Scarfo Si bei sweey
We say 4, 5, 6
Who says we no chicks
We go 7, 8, 9
We gonna make it fine
Scarfo, scarfo we so zai
Coming up with cheers all night
FO, FO we ai zai
FOC, see what see
Xi de guo dong xi de dong
Ni men tong tong bu yao dong!
Touch my body~

Yupz, those are some of our cheers. I shall only write these 2 for now. Oh yes, I gotta go work this Sunday, go KC next Tuesday to collect testimonial and year book and I have TP orientation on 15 and 16 April. Wow, lotsa programmes! Guess I have to rest early! Chao!

¡Adios!

LAST DAY OF FOW '10

2010-04-07T23:29:00.000+08:00

iLove my empire SCARFO!

¡Hola! Yup, today marks the end of our FOW 2010... It's sad, but we Scarfo really have had an awesome day!

There were laughters of joy, tears of joy and cheers of our wonderful Scarfo... It will definitely be an unforgettable experience for me... I love SCARFO, my caring GLs and this great FOW 2010!

In the beginning, I signed up for the workshop as I thought it was compulsory. When I found out it wasn't, I was thinking perhaps I shouldn't even go. However, I decided to give it the go. I was glad I made this choice! If not for this, I would not have made wonderful GLs, my new friend in Scarfo and had so much fun since I left Secondary school. This is the best workshop ever! :D

Hip hip hooray! I'm gonna write down all our Scarfo cheers tomorrow :)

¡Adios!

2nd Day of FOC '10!

2010-04-06T22:44:00.000+08:00

iMass Dance & perform!

¡Hola! Yup, it's another fun-filled day at TP's FOC 2010. Today we had station games, learned some new TP songs & cheers, picked up the very famous & frolic mass dance and our unforgettable performance night!

Everything was great today! I made new interactions and aborbed more information about TP on this day! The only and rather major flaw was the weather! The temperatures on this day were really high and the sun seemed to shine it's scorching light non-stop!! Everyone felt super hot and sweaty, but it didn't dampen our spirits! In fact, we were more active and participative as compared to yesterday.

Hip hip hooray! :D

Well, I'm really exhausted by the whole day's activities so I'll end short! This sums up all of today. So, tata! :D

¡Adios!

TPSU non-residential camp.

2010-04-05T22:55:00.000+08:00

iWent to camp today!

¡Hola! Today's marks the first day of my TPSU Freshman Orientation camp!!! Yup, my debut TP activity...

I met up with Penny and Chen Fang early in the morning at Bedok interchange. We've decided to take bus 69 to school together! Yup, and when we arrived at TP, there it goes... Si, the TP GLs and TPSU members gathered at every part of the campus shouting all sorts of welcome cheer you could possibly think of. I could only say that the whole finding our way to the sports complex journey was deafening and awkward...

Then reaching the designated area only to find out sadly, that I was to be seperated from Penny and Chen Fang. We were allocated to different groups, or shall I call them, empires of Temasek City; at least that's what the whole empire story is about. Yup, I am to be in the all-time champion empire Scarfo! What an honour!

Then there were our sub-groups under Scarfo, which I happened to be in one of them called Scardom (what a pretty name). Although I didn't get to be with my former convent school friends, I found a new friendship with a really nice girl called Najlaa! Yippee! So we're kinda like there for each other during the whole fun & games, lunch and not to forget all the cheering.

TP is really about cheering man! The entering of the campus, the open house and the whole camp involves so much cheering!! I would estimate it to be 90% of the whole camp. The camp was really fun and I managed to made some new friends, or so I say get to know more of my school mates a little more!! Oh yes, there were a few eye candies too! :)

Okay, I need to go now! That's that for today:)

¡Adios!

I'm BACK!

2010-04-04T15:37:00.000+08:00

I'm BACK to blogging!

¡Hola! Yupz just noticed how dead my blog is, probably started rotting, so I decided to revamp it. Tada! Here's my new blog~~~ :D

Due to the popularity and convenience of Facebook, I did most of my reflections and/or diary there. However, I realised I can better express myself here. Why? Firstly, more space. Secondly, I can personalise everything here. Thirdly, more fun as there are emotion icons I can insert in between text! Lastly, I can link up my friends and read up their blogs too! Yup, that sums it all. :)

Lately, I've gotten interest in Spanish and am self learning it online! It's pretty fun man!

Oh yes, recently I found out about Dead or Alive Extreme Volleyball 2!! I really want to have it, but you know what? It can only be played on a XBOX 360!! This is frustrating as I only got a XBOX crystal that my father won from purchasing an Oral-B tooth brush a few years back. Well, it's a good thing though, prevents me from spending money on my wants and not needs. Yay.

Currently, I'm waiting to start my AY2010/2011 @ TP. The day's really near, I can smell it. It's April 19th, oh well it's end with the holidays. Btw, I spend my vacation surfing the net, working at St Regis Hotel, doing household chores and well, just relaxing and going out with my family. Btw, my sister is going Tokyo, Japan in a few hours time, and I'm green wth envy!! I wanna go too! ><

Nevermind, it kinda makes us even as I went to Xi An and Beijing, China in 2008. Oh yes, and I told her to get a bag of Japan goodies home for me! So that makes it all up. Haiz, kinda sianz have to work next Sunday @ LaBrezza from 3pm - 10.30pm! To add on, I have a TP camp starting from tomorrow... I hope tomorrow will be a smooth day!

¡Adios!

2009-08-23T13:49:00.000+08:00

Prelims and 'O'Levels

Countdown to 'O' Levels: 64
Countdown to Prelims: 10

Yes, I haven't been able to write in my blog for a long time due to my studies. 'O' Levels is coming and I need to Study everyday! It's really tiring! My upcoming exams are the English oral, and prelims. OMG, I have not rally studied much yet! I'm dead meat.

It's so tiring and sometimes I just want to give up. Almost everyday teachers will come to our class and rant all about 'O' levels. One would scold us the whole lesson, the other would spend half the time to ask us to focus on their subject. I've got 9 subjects to study!!! It's so stressful!!

Anyway. theres something to celebrate about though, during this straining period of time. The pleasing thing is I've secured one A1!!! Yay! I've gotten A1 for chinese( distinction for oral )!!

On 25th August, it will be my English oral! Guess what? I'm the first! OMG, it's such a scary thought! I am most weak in my picture discussion! I'm so worried!

Alrighty, I need to do some oral practice, particularly picture discussion, now! Go! Go! Go!

A lollipop a day, keeps my sorrows away...

Liverpool

2009-07-26T21:28:00.000+08:00

~Liverpool 2009~

25th July 2009

I met Ming Wai (mw) @ Lavender MRT station and saw Honami, Elieen and Gracia.

We went to Jalan Besar Stadium to see Liverpool get off the bus! They were going into the stadium for their training session. However, when both of us reached our destination, there were only a few LFC fans there. Only then did we find out they had changed the locstion to national stadium! Mw decided to take bus 11 there.

We reached the natonal stadium's bus stop and we strolled towards the crowd. Everyone was outside singing LFC songs and requesting to get in. It was a rather small crowd. After about 20 minutes, the guards set up a spot and led us nearer to the entrance. We were getting a chance to get signatures! I guess the manager or players heard us and kindly decided to show their faces. Mw was really happy, that she may finally get something.

Another 20 minutes passed... Some of the players and Sammy Lee(Assistant Manager) came out sign for us! Mw didn't bring any paper so I lent her a paper which I happen to find in my bag. It was the mid-year exam paper. Haha! Anyway, a boy named Jai really helped Mw alot! He got her 5 signatures in total! Mw was totally excited(although she can't recognise whose is whose! Haha!)! She even got 2 on her TkaMb! She got Dirk Kuyt's signature!

We later headed to Clarke Quay and saw Liverpool!!! We waited on the steps by the river. It was a really hot and humid day, I even got a sun burn! Its terrible! You can totally see two distinct colours on my skin lor!! :( Anyway, we saw them and sadly their boat went to the other side of the river! We followed their boat anyway, all the way to Liang court. We were running all the way la! Anyway, both of us went there and found an empty spot and begun taking photos.

This was when mw shouted Reina, the LFC goalkeeper, and guess what? REINA HEARD MW AND WAVED AT HER! You know, mw was really elated and she even cried tears of joy... I mean can you imagine it? Reina actually heard her and waved to her, she was so touched she had this kind of interaction with one of the LFC players.

Later, we started chasing them. Running and stopping, taking pictures. We were always between the second and third boat. The second boat had Reina, and a few others whom I had forgotten. The third boat consists of the training staff especially Rafa( manager ) and Sammy Lee( assistant manager ). Sammy Lee was really cute! He was the only one who was kind enough to sign for everyone in the morning! He is really small in size, and firendly. Hes 50 this year, but looks really cute.

We end up chasing all the way to the Fullerton Hotel. The security guard didn't allow us to run any further then. So most of us actually went into the hotel itself! Shockingly no one appears to stop us, so we went through the hotel to the other side. But as we got out of the hotel( one with really heavy doors ), mw decided to stop the chase after LFC. She said she had received enough for the day, that she was satisfied. Thus we headed to Suntec City.

We the happened to pass by a Adidas shop with a huge Steven Gerrard( he didn't come )'s photo. She took a picture with it, cause it really looked good. We then went into the store and mw took an Alonso picture. We saw a Steven Gerrard poster which mw like. So she decided to ask for it, only to find out we have to purchase at least $100 worth of Adidas products to get it. Mw persuaded the staff and she actually suceeded! She got it! She was so delighted that she was singing LFC song and htting me with the poster, the whole journey to Marina Square. I really suffered!

We watched Harry Potter and the half blood prince shortly after. It was not bad, but not as exciting as the previous ones. However, I really enjoyed the Ron Weasly scenes. He was really hilarious! We went home after that. Mw said it was the happiest day of her life!

26th July 2009

Liverpool Football Club VS Singapore Football Club
5 to 0
Yay! LFC performed really well! Now Dirk Kuyt is my LFC favourite player! However, it was disappointing that Singapore didn't scored anything...

A Lollipop a day, keeps your sorrows away...

Woots! Long long time!

2009-04-15T21:26:00.000+08:00

SYF...

Hello! Its been a longlonglonglonglonglong time since I've blogged! HahaXDXD

Yes, KCCO's SYF is coming up! Its next week Monday(20th April)!! Yes I know it's approaching, thats why we have been practising almost everday this wk! I know its pretty late, but better than nothing! I really hope we can get gold and make those ppl who think KCCO suck to SHUDDUP!!

Yes, our school kinda detest us... For example, playing innocently at our little CO room would invite criticisms of the screechy noises coming from the CO room. Some ppl who walk pass during our practice would say we're noisy and even laugh at us... However, I would care least for their comments of our CCA and just continue practising. I must say we KCCO have survived a long way...

Anyway, April has been a rather busy month for us Sec4s... Extra lessons, tons of homework, thousands of practice papers, CCA practices, tests, EMDD(KC annual arts event) practice, tuition and pressure from all the teachers.... Man, this really SUCK! Anyway, it's no point saying all these, its not going to help. All I have to do is work harder and do my best! Persevere and never give up. All will be over soon(after the big 'O's)....

All right, time to end off, going off to finish my homework! Oh man, there's 2 tests for tomorrow! A maths and English... I'm glad we have postponed our Bio test to this Saturday, more time to study... Yes, we are coming to school on Saturday for EMDD rehearsal, CO practice and Bio test which will all probably end at 3pm... Oh yes, me and my friends are going out too! We are watching HANDSOME SUIT at Tampines Mall on that day too! Yay!!! :)

A lollipop a day, keeps my sorrows away...

CNY Rest

2009-01-22T16:25:00.000+08:00

CNY~

Hey yo! Its been a longlonglonglong time since I last posted, haha I was kinda lazy but partially was because I had no time to blog.

Yes, its 2009 and this is gonna be my first post of the year! Haha, yeah I know its kinda long...XDXD Anyways, I'm sec4 this year and you know what that means rite? Yes, if you are smart enough you would know, its the 'O' Levels!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ugh, didn't know it would arrive sooo soon, its scary!

Btw, I've been really busy for the last few wks lo... Motivation camp, CNY class deco, CCA, tuition, Novena church programme, lots of homework, spelling........etc. OMG I feel like I'm collapsing... Furthermore, I end school everyday at around 2.30pm and reach only at aprox. 3pm! Then everyday in sch feel very sian lo, all the teachers rushing the syllabus and talking about the 'O's, I feel as if my eyelids weigh a ton! Not forgetting the worst part! The sch bag and the scorching hot weather!! Arhh, make me sweat sooo much!

However, the thing that I have been anticipating for sooo long(okay, not very long but it seems to be when u are in sch) has finally arrived!! Yes, its the CNY!! *Claps happily* Finally I can get a little rest and time to study so as to catch up with the syllabus! Yay! Hip hip hooray! Okay, guess I'll sign off for now, tomorrow I'm gonna go catch a movie with my friends, bye! Happy 牛 Year!

A lollipop a day, keeps my sorrows away...

China Trip!!!

2008-11-21T18:41:00.000+08:00

China trip...

Yup, I'm back!!!! Yay!!:D I luv SG!

Ok, my 10days of China has finally ended. Its kinda fun and I made new frenws! :) Nevertheless, I also strengthen our frenwship during this period of time!

My buddy in Xi'an is called Betty! Her chinese name is 张佳悦. She very nice to me and Ming Wai although mw sometimes make fun of her. She rather fun to be wif. Her whole family was really nice to us. Her mum is always looking out of us and really takes care of us both. Her dad always drives us to and from the sch. Her granny was really nice, she and my buddy's mum bought gifts for us! Our days there was surely sth memorable.

Anyway, at Tiananmen Square while roaming around, the group of us saw a digusting sight! Guess what? We saw a mum helping her kid shit on the concrete floor in the middle of nowhere! It was like "ok..." for us, its so gross and irresponsible! They didn't even pick it up! They just left the shit there. Can u imagine? A shit in the middle of a tourist attraction? OMG.

Tt was not all. In China, ppl could smoke indoors! Tts like WTH?! The dangerous smoke can juz spread around the room with the aid of the air-con! It stinks! Ppl like us who doesn't smoke will have a higher chance of getting Lung Cancer frm their 2nd hand smoke! I dun object ppl frm smoking, buut why can't they juz do it outside? Haiz, its a pity China doesn't haf the rule of banning smoking indoors... Furthermore, ppl spit everywhere! You now, they juz walk to one spot(or some juz keep walking) and spit their saliva or phlegm on the pavement! I mean, how gross is tt? They r like kinda skillful for spitting really far, I guess they've been spitting alot, since young! DISGUSTING!!!!

Okies, anyway the trip wasn't really affected by those digusting incidents, it was rather fun! The tourist attractions were really beautiful! I took some wonderful pics there too, which will be displayed later below. The food there... Its quite nice but very salty and oily! U can see the oil, shining, imagine the amt of oil... Nevertheless, we enjoyed the stay in Beijing too!(except for the uncivilised ppl)

Lastly, not forgetting shopping!!! Yes, the 2nd highlight of our trip!(1st is of course learning!) We girls sure looooooove shopping! The few hrs were nvr enough! Shopping experience there was great, especially at Xi Dan shopping centre, it felt like the Singapore Bugis street! Haha, except things there were a little ex. I bought boots, keychains, earrings, pouch, a mini book, CD, ice-cream, gloves, earmuffs, name stamps ... ... hahahaXDXD

Alrite, now for the pictures!!!! Here goes:

My KFC breakfast at the Beijing Airport... S$4

The Beijing Airport waiting hall for departure...

The 3 of us at the airport...XDXD

A typical daily meaal for us in Xi'an... Alot of oily food! Salty too!

The city wall of Xi'an, one of the buildings...

Gonna post more pics nxt time, this time my sis borrowed the chip, so ya...tata!

A lollipop a day, keeps my sorrows away...

Irritating Halloween!!!!!

Days to Xi'an trip: 8 days...

THE WORSE DAY OF MY LIFE... TOTALLY NIGHTMARE!!!!!!!

I'm totally irritsted by tonight's so-called halloween party!!! They told us to wear halloween costumes, so me & MW went out the day b4 juz to get sth nice... Furthermore, I spent abt $30 over on tt trip, which is to me rather expensive and tt I've spent way too much!!

Okay fine wif the money, I kinda expected it... But what happened todae at the party, which I was rather looking forward to was nth!!! ONE BORING AND EMBARRASSING DAY!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay so we went there, me and MW only b'coz the rest didn't wanna come, parents don't allow or haf stuffs already planned for the day. Yup,when we finally reached, all we saw were unfamiliar ppl who we aren't so close to and we got no one to talk to... So the both of us juz stand at one isolated corner and asking each other what to do..

At first MW suggested we juz head home since we're not the sociable type tt mixes wif the 'more cool' ppl. But I explained to her tt we've alreadly paid $3 and have not yet have our dinner, so we decided to eat sth first. So ya thw both of us who were left there doing nth decided to go grab our dinner... U noe the isolation they gv is juz scary!!

Yes sometimes a few may come to us who were eating at the table abt our role, when I told them I was a ghoul, they gave me a er... look lo and stare at me. Yes I may be wearing hm clothes only but I have my mask too, its juz in the bag, U can't expect me to wear em the whole time rite? Its really hot!!!! I was sweating liao lo. Somemore theres very little activities n the party is juz the most boring thing I've ever been to...

More ppl came forward to ask us abt our roles for halloween, its irritating, I juuz dunno wat to sae... Anyway, we left the rm and went to the playground to play n take pics. We left the party shortly after tt... BORING PARTY!!!We kept calling the rest of our gang during our suffeing process to find company, but sadly, no one came, hahaXDXD

Yup, booring boring boring boring boring!!! I totally wasted time n money!!!! Ugh! I shall nvr go to another party again!!!

A weekend of holiday...

Countdown to Xi'an Trip: 12

Yup, finally holidae for me to rest and get up as late as I want. Although theres CO practice on Saturday, theres still Deepavali on Monday to make it up! Yay!

Anyway, I finally got hold of my favourite TV series!!! SEASON 3 OF SUPERNATURAL!!!!!!!!! Yippee!! I've been waiting for soooo long!! And yeah, I watced finished it in juz 2.5 days!! Muahahahaha! Now I'm waiting for season 4!!!!! Okay, so u guys reading basically noe I've been at home almost throughout my weekend! XD Oh yes btw, DEAN WINCHESTER and SAM WINCHESTER is sooooooo CUTE!!! :D My idols!

Oh no, I have not even done my Chinese hw!! My teacher's gonna kill me!! I think I better go do now!!! Oh yes btw, I went to watch "20th century boys", all I can tell u is that the show is lousy!!! Very complicating and lame!! Furthermore, they ended it halfway and theres another one!!! Anyway, tiz is my blog, I have the rights to my own opinions, if anyone out there loves the show, I apologise. I mean everyone has their own opinions rite?

Okay, guess I'll end here. Oh damn, I haven gotten a halloween costume yet! Damn. Better hurry! Okies, better go do my hw! bye-bye!:)

Structured Lessons

Starting countdown to Xi'an Trip: 15 days...

Yupz, todae's the first dae of the sec3 structured lessons... We had to move to 406 classroom for the lessons. Man, it was sure mixed feelings then... I was happy tt we moved to a new environment, but at the same time felt rather nervous too. Moving to a Sec4 classroom shows tt the 'O' Lvls are comin'! Soooo scary! Somemore we were told tt it was shifted to an even earlier date than tiz yr's!! Oh man...

Anyways, its realli cold todae! Almost freezing! Oh yes! Theres a halloween party for 3 of the sec3 classes coming rite up! Its on the 31st Oct!! Its my first time celebrating halloween, I'm kinda excited!!:D Going to such a party means having to dress urself up in some kind of freaky costume or sth like tt. So I was thinking of wearing a ghoul mask!! HahaXDXD

Anyway, what goes with the ghoul mask?? I racked my brains for the answer but juz can't seem to think of any... What to do?? I noe where to get a ghoul mask, but what to wear and where to buy?? Haiz... Anyone who has any idea, do tag on my cbox! thks! I realli appreciate it! :)

I think tts all for todae... Sayonara!

October

Yes, its October!!! Wow! Tiz sch yr has passed!! Ugh, the scary thingy(O Lvl) is comin'!!!

Yep, we(KC-ians) finished our exams and has gotten back our 2008 overall results!! Guess what? I've gotten myself 13 points for L1R5!!! Yay! I'm kinda satisfied coz it was pretty bad for midyr and tiz time I improved!! Yay!! I've gotten 5As, 2Bs and 2Cs!! I didn't planned for a C!!! Guess I muz work harder!!! I'm aiming for 10 points and below!! GOGOGO!!

Yep, tts tt. Btw, MW's kinda pro!! She has gotten 12 points!! PRO!! HahaXDXD I've got more As than her but my As were at the wrong places! That smart gal juz noes where to put them!! She is always better than me overall! PRO GAL!!

Anyway, on the 21st Oct, there was tution for Val, MW & me. Deciding not to go home, I headed to MW's hse. We played her com, we played all sorts of things man! We first play facebk games, then blog surfing, idol surfing n even looked for MW's desktop wallpaper! She felt frustrated not being able to find a gd STEVEN GERRARD wallpaper, and so she ask me to go home and look for one! Yup, and I found one!! Look below:

Anyway, during the search, I decided to search for my idol too!! SUPERNATURAL!!! BEST SHOW EVER!!!! HahaXDXD Heres the pic, its realli nice!!><

Btw, the new channel #OKTO was juz released! I was certain shows, its juz like arts central plus kids central, adding in more variety of shows. I think its realli nice! I love the channel and the new shows! Its pretty cool, lotsa nvr seen b4 documentary. Once, I watched a documentary abt a group of scientists experimenting the force n impact of the diff martial arts. IT WAS TOTALLY COOL MAN!!! I love the show!! The graphics of the impacts was realli cool!!!:) MUZ WATCH! I'd gif OKTO 5 stars...

Anyway, today was the last day of sch... HOWEVER, as there is sec3 structured lessons, lessons for sec3s CONTINUE TOMORROW!!!! Ugh, tiring!!!:( It only stop on 4nov. It lasts 7 days... Haiz, somemore the curriculum look like the lessons r going to be very sianz.... HAIZ.... Oh yes, furthermore theres CO practice on Sat!!! Oh no!! Its the whole day!!! *faint*

*wakes up* Ugh, tiring month!! Sianz lo... LOL, I'm sooo pathetic!!! :( In addition, I'm turning sec4!!! Ugh! Everything's juz sooo fast la!! Oh no, 'O' levels nxt yr!!! Ahhhhhhh!!! Haiz again.... Anyway, guess tts all I wanna say, I'm going to rest first!! byebye!!

Results!

2008-10-15T20:54:00.000+08:00

EOY RESULTS!

Hiyas! Got back half of my results! They were all pretty gd at the moment!:D Yay!

Yups, got back 6 papers recently! Guess what? I've got 5As out of the six! Hooray! Well as for the last one, I've gotten myself a B! Felt rather disspointed lo! Anyways its kinda gd!! I'm sooo happy!

Ok below is what I've got in detail(EOY only, not overall):
-Chinese ---> 73%
-Emath ---> 89%
-Chem ---> 71%
-Amath ---> 98.8%
-Physics ---> 77.5%
-Bio ---> 63%

Ok, I believe KC's standard of an A is kinda low compared to other schools, 70 for A2 and 75 for A1, I dunno what the other school's standards are, but I'm kinda proud of myself for certain subjects.

An example would be both my maths, I'm soo happy! XDXD I've got like above 80%, and improved alot!:D Yay! I've got like a 79/80 for Amaths! Hooray!

Oh yes, another subject I'm proud of is Physics! I tot I was gonna fail! But I've got an A1!! Yay! The last exam I've gotten a C, which I'm pretty sad and even decided to drop the subject, but I perservered and strive to work better and guess what? I succeeded! Yay!

Ok, was a little long winded! HahaXDXD Anyways, hope the other papers will be a success too! :) Yups, tts all for todae, I gonna go play com! Btw, if anyone who is reading, do add me on facebook! Recently I've been playing Pet Society in facebook, its really fun! So everyone, do join in the fun! Do haf an acct and add me!:D Alrites, bb!

Another day out + Vaccination

2008-10-13T17:39:00.000+08:00

Vaccination & Day at Marina Sq

Long Entry! Yups, today's the day for our vaccination! Yes, its for the Xi'an/Beijing trip frm 9nov~19nov.

Ok, it first started wif the teachers... Some teachers gave faces as if it was kinda pain, but said it was ok when they were done, some ppl very de scared lo. lol.

Soon the teachers finished their shot and it was our turn! Some ppl didn't say anything(those tt were infront of me), but one of them cried. er... nvm, anyway it was my turn and I took the shot. It was a little pain, sharp short pain and it ended... All I can say is its bearable.

Btw, MW said it hurt and her face was like she felt very cheated by the teachers who said it wasn't pain, hahaXDXD

Anyway, after we were done wif the shot we(me, E.ow & MW) headed to Marina SQ to meet Val. Penny and Sham were not going as they had sth on, so sad... Anyway, we had a change of clothes in the toilets and headed to Mcdonalds for lunch. The meal was sooo ex! $6++

Nxt, we decided to play bowling and try to defeat MW! Coz she always wins whenever we play, and I did it!! Hooray! I scored 60 sth, ok I noe its low but I won MW, and MW scored 50 sth! Haha, finally I won her!

Later, we headed to Suntec and took Neo Print pics! It was soo fun! First time I took a decent Neoprint pic... Yup, then we designed it, printed it and shared it among the 4 of us:)

Then we decided to head home and we split up wif Val who wanted to take bus, we headed to the MRT station... On the way, we saw Steven Gerrard(MW's football idol) in some sports shop and MW went crazy over it! She grabbed me all of a sudden and started pulling me towards the shop, well you can all see how excited she was. After I said I saw it, she pushed me to a side and started asking E.ow to see and stuff like tt. I then gave her left arm(the arm tt took the shot) a smack and guess what? She was soo excited over tt Steven Gerrard frm Liverpool tt she nvr feel the pain frm the vaccination spot! OMG!

After we took the vaccination, tt spot hurts a little and when you touch it, it really hurts. BUT MW was soo excited over tt Steven tt she forgot the pain... Anyway, if you wanna noe who Steven Gerrard is, the following is his photo, as promised to MW who wanted me to put, the most handsome photo of him:

Yups, tts him! Anyway, theres other idols tt MW like too, I don't intend to publish the pics, its too tedious! Her idols are: Meng Jie the SCO suona player, Daniel Wu the 'Shuai Ge', the Beijing Suona guy tt I dunno his name and many more! HahaXDXD

Anyway, 2moro we are getting some of our papers back, I hope I do well for them! Alrite, am ending here, so bb! Oh yes, and thks MW for being my loyal blog reader! HahaXDXD Sayonara!

A lollipop a day, keeps my sorrows away...

FINALLY OVER!!!

2008-10-09T16:33:00.000+08:00

FINALLY OVER!!!!

YES! ITS FINALLY OVER!

After 3 wks of torture, yes the EOY exams are over!!! Yup, I had my Amaths & Physics paper todae... For Amaths, I'm confident of getting an A1!! Well as for physics, all I can say is, I hope I can pass, but its over now! So I shall not talk abt it anymore.:D

Yups, I headed home wif sham after the exams, I nvr felt soo relaxed! hahaXD Anyway, me & sham played Xbox @ my hse, we played car racing, fighting & volleyball games, it was fun!:D Btw, I was supposed to be online on msn after I haed home, to discuss wif my gang abt the movie day on Mon, but Sham & I were having too much fun, I forgot.

Yes, now the time is like 4.40pm, I guess Val's having her chinese tution & E.ow's taking a nap, well guess I'll juz haf to do the organising myself! Anyway, 2moro I'm going my mahjong kaki's hse to play mahjong! Yes, tt mahjong kaki of mine is MW! XDXD

Oh yes, oh yes, juz now when I was walking sham to the bus stop, she noticed tt I was taller. Yup, I'm wearing tt tall sandals, so when we walked side by side, we looked like mother & daughter(I was wearing home clothes). Somemore I was wearing tt Ah Soh hair clip of mine, it was sooo funny! I even said,"Bye daughter!" when she boarded the bus! HahaXDXD

Anyway, she also told me one of her incidence in a lift of Ang Mo Kio when we were in the lift, tt she saw a pile of HUMAN SHIT at the corner of the lift!! I was like EWWWW! What gross situation is tt! Someone actually shit in the lift, OMG where is tt person's conscience? I hate this kind of irresponsible people!

Sayonara!

A lollipop a day, keeps my sorrows away...

Yay!

2008-10-07T17:29:00.001+08:00

Revision-2

2008-10-02T20:25:00.000+08:00

Continued frm previous...

*Chp7 - Nutrition in plants
-Photosynthesis->process in which light energyabsorbed by chlorohyll is transformed into chemical energy. The chemical energy is used to synthesis carbohydrates from water & carbon dioxide. Water & carbon dioxide are the raw material for photosynthesis. Oxygen is released during the process.
-De-starch a plant->put plant in darkness for abt 2 days
-If glucose forms more quickly then its used up, excess glucose is changed to starch for storage
-If photosynthesis has taken place, then glucose must be formed from CO2
-When testing leaf for starch, place leaf in boiling water to denature enyzme
-chlorophyll is a pigment in plants tt absorbs sunlight. It is green in colour.(thus leaf is green)
-Conditions for photosynthesis->Sunlight, CO2, chlorophyll, suitable temp & water
-Oxygen is given off during photosynthesis
-Limiting factors in photosynthesis->light intensity, concentration of carbon dioxide & temp.
-Glucose in leaves:
+cellular respiration, form cellulose cell walls
+excess is converted to sucrose, transported to storage organs
+In daylight, excess glucose is converted to starch in leaves, in darkness vice versa
+reacts with nitrates & other mineral salts absorbed from soil to form->amino acids->synthesis of new protoplasm/storage as proteins form proteins or synthesis of new protoplasm in leaves
+forms fats for storage/used in cellular respiration/synthesis of new protoplasm
-Stored food is digested & utilised
-Why is it impt?
+light energy is converted into chemical energy, organisms obtain it directly/indirectly
+removes carbon dioxide & provides oxygen tt is needed by organisms
+energy is stored in coal->used in cooking, vehicles, etc.
-Internal structure of the lamina(leaf)
+Upper epidermis-> top layer of lamina, covered by a waxy cuticle(protects leaf from excessive evaporation of water), no chloroplast
+Palisade mesophyll->numerous chloroplasts, most photosynthesis occurs here, long & cylindrical cells.
+Spongy mesophyll->irregular in shape, numerous intercellular air spaces among them for rapid diffusion of gas, contains chloroplasts, photosynthesises, all mesophyll cells haf thin flim of moisture around them for carbon dioxide to dissolve in it, vascular bundle present here
+Lower epidermis, similar to upper epidermis
+Stoma->minute openings, impt for gaseous exchange
+Guard cells->bean shaped, contains chloroplasts, can photosynthesis, control the rate of diffusion of gases into & out of the leaf by controlling size of stomata, has thicker cell wall near stomata
-How do Guard cells control size of stomata?
+when photosynthesis occurs, light energy is converted to chemical energy to pump potassium ions into guard cells via the epidermal cells, lowering the water potential. Water from neighbouring cells move into guard cell by osmosis so the guard cell becomes turgid
+at night, potassium ions diffuse out of guard cells, which increases water potential in the guard cells so water diffuse out by osmosis, guard cells become flaccid & stomata pores close
-How do CO2 & H2O enter the leaf?
+CO2 enters leaf via stomata when concentration of CO2 in the leaf is lower(during photosynthesis as its rapidly used up) than the surrounding, a diffusion gradient exists. Co2 dissolves into the thin film of moisture & diffuses into the cells as a solution
+The xylem transport water & mineral salts from the roots to the leaf.

*Chp8 - Transport in Humans
-Plasma->pale yellowish liquid, mixture of: (soluble proteins such as fibrinogen, prothrombin, antibodies, dissolved mineral salts, food substances, excretory products, hormones), transport all those substances along wif blood cells around the body.
-Red Blood Cells(RBC)->contains haemoglobin which combines reversibly wif oxygen, circulr biconcave disc which increases surface area to volume ratio, absorb & release O2 at a faster rate, do not haf a nucleus so it can contain more haemoglobin, elastic & can turn bell shaped to squeeze through blood vessels smaller then itself
-White Blood Cells(WBC)->larger than RBCs but fewer, colourless, no haemoglobin, irregular in shape, wif nucleus, can move & change its shape & squeeze through walls of thinnest blood capillaries into the spaces among tissues cells
+Lymphocyte->produced by bone marrow,large rounded nucleus, non-granlar cytoplasm, produce antibodies
+Phagocyte-> ingests & digests foreign particles such as bacteria, lobed nucleus & granular cytoplasm
-Blood platelets->Play a part in blood clotting

Arhh!!! Only at chp 8!! Still got alot le! Forget it, its late now, its like 11.01pm lo!!! So sleepyy, dun feel like typing le, 2moro got exam, so muz sleep now!! okays, bb!

A lollipop a day, keeps my sorrows away...

Revision!

2008-10-02T15:43:00.000+08:00

Revision Time!!

Hiiz! 2moro's Bio & SS SA2!!! Ugh, still playing com... Anyways, I'm gonna do revision here!! Hehehe!XDXD Oh yes n E.ow, hope u'll understand what I write!:)

BIOLOGY(Chp2~10 & 14)

*Chp2 - Cells
-Each living cells consists of protoplasm(cell surface membrane, cytoplasm & nucleus)
-Cell surface membrane-> Partially permeable membrane, controls subtances going in & out the cell
-Cytoplasm->Contains enyzmes(catalysts reactions) & organelles(centrioles, mitochondria)
-Nucleus->Surrounded by the nuclear envelope, with nucleoplasm, contains nucleolus & chromatin, controls cell activities(cell growth & repair of worn out parts), needed for cell division
-Cell wall(present only in plant cells)->Protects cell from injury & give the plant a fixed shape
-Animal cells:
+Cell surface membrane
+Cytoplasm
+Many small vacuoles
+Centrioles
+Mitochondria
+Nucleus(Nuclear envelope, Nucleoplasm, Chromatin & Nulceolus)
-Plant Cells:
+Cell surface membrane
+Cytoplasm
+Mitochondria
+Nucleus(Nuclear envelope, Nucleoplasm, Chromatin & Nulceolus)
+Cell wall
+Chloroplast(Contains chlorophyll)
+Tonoplast
+Large central vacuole
-Chromatin->Controls cell division, made up of proteins & DNA(deoxyribonucleic acid), DNA cotains hereditary info & instructions for reactions, when dividing it condenses & become chromosomes
-Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum(RER)->Ribosomes attached(synthesises proteins transported out of cell), transports proteins it made to the Golgi Apparatus(secretion out of cell after modifying, in secretory vesicles), connected to nuclear envelope
-Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum(SER)->no ribosomes, more tubular than RER, connected to RER, synthesises fats & steroids, detoxification
-Mitochondria->Aerobic respiration, food subtances oxidised to release energy(for growth & reproduction)
-Chloroplast->contains chlorophyll needed for photosynthesis
-Vacuoles->fluid filled space, store water & food substances(animal), contains cell sap with mineral salts & sugar & amino acids(plant)
-Tissue->a group of similar cells which work together to perform a specific function, diff tissues combine to form an organ

*Chp3 - Movement of substances
-Diffusion->net movement of particles from a region where they are of higher concentration to a region where they are of lower concentration, that is, down a concentration gradient.
-Osmosis->movement of water molecules from a solution of higher water potential to a solution of lower water potential, through a partially permeable membrane(P.P.M.). (only for solutions)
-When in high water potential solution, water moves in cell and plant cell becomes turgid/ animal cell will swell & burst(no cell wall)
-When in low water potential solution, water moves out cell and plant cell becomes plasmolysed/ animal cell becomes crenated & dies eventually.
-Turgor impt to plants, without it, plant wlits
-Active Transport-> process in which energy is used to move the particles of a substance against a concentration gradient, that is, from a region where they are of lower concentration to a region where they are of higher concentration. (only in living cells, requires energy)

*Chp4 - Nutrients
-Nutrients-> energy, synthesise new protoplasm, repair worn-out parts of body, cell division, stay healthy
-Water-> transport medium, key component of body(protoplasm, blood, etc.), hydrolysis, control body temperature, photosynthesis
-Cabohydrates->CnH2mOm, Monosaccharides>glucose, Disaccharides>maltose, Polysaccharides>starch, Uses(energy, cellulose, converted to amino acids & fats, etc.)
-Condensation reaction->chemical reaction in which 2 simple molecules are joined together to form a larger molecule with the removal of 1 molecule of water.
-Hydrolysis-> a reaction in which a water molecule is needed to break up a complex molecule into smaller molecules.
-Benedict's test->reducing sugars, green->traces, yellow/orange->moderate amt, brick-red/orange-red->Large amt.
-Starch(animals), glycogen(plants)
-Iodine Test->starch
-Fats->Elements(C,H,O), Fat+3Water->Gylcerol+3Fatty acids, saturated(animals)->cholestrol, unstaurated(plants)->healthier, Uses(energy, keep body warm, etc.)
-Ethanol emulsion test->White precipitate, fats present
-Proteins->Elements(C,H,O,N,S), amino acids bonds(peptide bond) to form polypeptides which join up to form proteins, Uses(synthesis of new protoplasm, growth & repair of worn-out cells, synthesis of enyzmes & hormones, formation of antibodies)
-Biuret test-> solution turns violet, protein present

*Chp5 - Enyzmes
-Catalyst->substance which can alter or speed up a chemical reaction, without itself being chemically changed at the end of the reaction.
-Enyzme->biological catalysts made up of protein.
-Activation energy->energy needed to start a chemical reaction, Enyzmes lower it.
-Enyzme-catalysed process->eg. digestion(break down large food molecules into simpler, smaller substance so as to pass through P.P.M. of the cells in the body, which later build up into the large molecules needed in the cell)
-Some enyzmes->Amylase(starch), Cellulase(cellulose), Pepsin(proteins), Lipase(fats), etc.
-Characteristics of enyzmes->Speed up reactions, required in minute amts, specific(lock & key hypothesis, lock-enyzme active site, key-substrate molecules), affected by temp(optimum temp-most active, denatured-change in structure due to heat/ chemicals), affected by pH(acidity,alkalinity), catalyst revesible reactions(proceed forward or backwards)

*Chp6 - Nutrition in Humans
-Nutrition->1)Ingestion 2)Digestion 3)Absorption 4)Assimilation
-Alimentary canal/gut:
+Mouth & Buccal cavity->Teeth(chewing, increase surface area to volume ratio), Salivary glands(secrete saliva into mouth, amylase->digest starch, mucin->soften food), Tongue(mix food with saliva, taste buds, roll food into bolus), [PHYSICAL DIGESTION]
+Pharynx->connects mouth to oesophagus & larynx, epiglottis prevents food going into trachea, prevent choking
+Oesophagus->narrow & muscular tube, 2 muscles(antagonistic muscles)->longditudal muscles(outer), circular muscles(inner), Peristalsis(rhythmic, wave-like contractions of gut walls), Circular contract & longditudal relax-> food pushed forward, Longditudal contract & Circular relax->gut dilates for food to enter
+Stomach->distensible muscular bag, many gastric glands(secrete gastric juice for digestion), pyloric sphincter(stomach joins small intestine here)entrance for food into small intestine
+Small intestine->consists of: (duodenum, jejunum, ileum), abt 6m long, walls contains glands which secrete digestive enyzmes [Stomach & Small intestine CHEMICAL DIGESTION]
-Organs & glands associated with the gut:
+Liver->Secretes bile(greenish-yellow liquid), no enyzmes, speeds up digestion of fats
+Gall bladder->Bile temp stored here, greenish-yellow bag attached to liver, when contracts, bile flows into duodenum via bile duct
+Pancreas->connected to duodenum via pancreatic duct, produces pancreatic juice(contains enyzmes)
+Large intestine->1.5m long, consists of colon & rectum, caecum & appendix no specific function, faeces stored temp in rectum, rectum contracts & faeces expelled out through anus, colon absorb water & mineral salts frm undigested food material, no digestion here
-Digestion
+Gastric Juice->hydrochloric acid: 2 enyzmes(pepsin & rennin), stops amylase(denatures it), changes inactive enyzmes(pepsinogen, prorennin) to active forms, provides acidic medium for reaction to take place, kills harmful microorganisms, rennin clots soluble caseinogen into insoluble caesin, later digested by pepsin
+Chyme->digested liquidfied food in stomach
+Digestive process in Small intestine->Intestinal juice(maltase, sucrase, etc.) frm walls, pancreatic juice(Pancreatice amylase/lipase, etc), Bile, all alkaline, neutrlise acidic chyme, provide suitable medium for the enyzmes
+Carbohydrates->digested in mouth & small intestine, poly-monosaccaride(eg.starch to glucose)
+Proteins->digestion in stomach & small intestine, Protein-amino acids, enyzmes(Trypsin, erepsin, enterokinase->trypsinogen-trypsin)
+Fats->digestion in small intestine, bile emulsify fats(frm big droplet to many small droplets), increase surface area to volume ratio, digested by lipases
-Absorption(Small intestine)
=Adaptations for increase surface area
+With numerous folds on inner walls
+on the walls also lined with numerous villi
+on the villus are numerous microvilli, further increases the surface area
=Other Adaptations
+thin membranes-epithelium(one cell thick)
+Long to provide enough time for absorption
+the intestinal wall & the villi haf many blood capillaries to transport digested food away frm the intestine, in each villus is a lacteal surrounded by blood capillaries
=How does it take place?
+Glucose & amino acids diffuse into the blood capillaries of the villi, also by active transport
+Glycerol & fatty acids diffuse into the epithelium, here they combine to form minute fat globules which enter the lacteals
+Water & mineral salts are absorbed by the small intestine(mostly iluem) & colon
+Undigested matter is discharged as faeces by egestion/defecation

We always haf lots of stuff to tok abt, I always luv toking to her, its fun!:D

Me n MW can tok abt all sorts of stuffs ranging frm our daily habits to Singapore stuff... Most of e time, MW would mention abt her idol, Meng Jie, Steven frm Liverpool, some China suona guy, etc. We tok non-stop, hahaXDXD

All in all, todae's quite a boring dae, did nth lo... Ugh, its Bio & SS on Fri!!! What the?! Nvr study properly yet! Haiz... Anyway, Sayonarah!

Hiya, yups todae is Tuesday. Pretty fast rite? E holidaes r like 1/2 way through le... Haiz...

Well, nth much todae, I've been at home e whole dae, did almost nth... Okay, maybe something, some math n some physics... But still got SS, Chinese, more maths n yup more physics... Haiz, guess I'm lazy lor, keep playing although I kept telling myself not to... Well, guess its not as convincing as my laptop...XDXD

I stayed at home whole dae except 4 tution @ 5.30pm. My maths tution @ DLTC, its a lame name rite? Anyway, I dun care...XD Todae's tution is kinda relaxing, juz listening to Daniel, my since P5 tution teacher, talk abt our test n revealing e answers, so we juz copied em... Also, its quite fun too! ZQ & Shalin fight very de funny lo! XDXD Shalin n ZQ kept like screaming at each other coz of e issue, ZQ getting really wet frm top to toe b'cause of e rain.... She blamed it on Shalin, but Shalin blamed her back n there, kept quarreling, btw they fight very funny!!XDXD

Also, todae we chatted alot n Daniel kept picking on Liang Kai, one of e tution classmates, saying lotsa funny stuff!XDXD Daniel's realli lame, always saying lots of realli lame stuff, but tts wat makes e tution realli fun! In fact, I love going 4 tution!:D

Anyway, e ppl in our Tuesday Sec3 class r: e 3 KC-ians[Val, MW & me of course!], e 3 TKGS gals[Zhi Qing, Shalin & Hui Wen], e Bedok Viewer[Li Ting], e Dunman Sec maths pro[Ella], e 2 Macpherson Best Frenws[Rainie & Hazelnut] & last but not least, e only boy in class[Liang Kai]. Our class is quite a big class!:D N we r e accelerated class!XD Means we're better n learn faster then other Sec3 classes!XD

Well then, yups tts all for my dae todae... Btw, if anyone's interested in joining e tution, u r very welcome to!! Do leave a msg at my tagg board!:) Yup, n buaiz, will write again!

Yups, I went to Vivocity again todae!!! I went to see e cosplay event there, I went wif my sis & Val... E organiser is really bad @ organising such events... They say start at 4pm, but took such a long time, 4.30pm or later then start, somemore they kept saying "we will commence shortly", but their shortly veri long n they kept saying e same things, haiz, sian lo... Anyway, here r some pics I wanna share wif u:

I Luv e ghoul, e smilie, pink shirt guy & the black shirt wif red tie guy!:)

Vivocity...

Yup, I went to Viviocity todae wif my family, nth special but juz to catch a movie... We watched 12 Lotus... Erm, e story's kinda complicated, somemore nvr show ending lo, but e songs r nice! I luv those hokkien songs in e show! Some parts of e show where there's singing is nice too, also got some rather funny parts... I would rate it 3 stars for e sake of e songs:)

Some of e songs I like is 家后 n 十二莲花, their really nice! tt's y I wanna share it wif everyone! Here r e lyrics 4 家后:

家后

曲：郑进一词：郑进一/陈维祥歌（歌词转自音魁网 www.inkui.com)

有一日咱若老找无人甲咱友孝我会陪你

坐惦椅寮听你讲少年的时阵你有外

吃好吃丑无计较怨天怨地嘛袂晓你的手

我会甲你牵条条因为我是你的家后

阮将青春嫁置恁兜阮对少年跟你跟甲老

人情世事已经看透透有啥人比你卡重要

阮的一生献乎恁兜才知幸福是吵吵闹闹

等待返去的时阵若到我会让你先走

因为我会呒甘放你为我目屎流

有一日咱若老有媳妇子儿友孝你若无聊

拿咱的相片看卡早结婚的时阵你外缘投

穿好穿丑无计较怪东怪西嘛袂晓

你的心我会永远记条条因为我是你的家后

阮将青春嫁置恁兜阮对少年就跟你跟甲老

人情世事嘛已经看透透有啥人比你卡重要

　阮的一生献乎恁兜才知幸福是吵吵闹闹

　等待返去的时阵若到你着让我先走

　因为我会呒甘看你为我目屎流

Alrite, tt's all 4 todae, bye-bye!

Teacher's Day!

2008-08-29T14:39:00.000+08:00

A muddy day...

Hiya, todae's Teacher's Day, tt means, no school!! Yay!!! Btw, e blog date got sth wrong, todae's 29-08-08, Friday!

Oh yes anyway, its ACES(All Children Excercise Stimultaneously) day todae too! So, for our sch, we did sth like a mass dance where everybody juz get onto e field n dance e choreographed dance by e dance club. So ya, everyone were like on e muddy dae n once e music started, everyone started dancing, actually not everyone, coz some ppl juz refuse to dance n stand there. They scared get their shoes dirty n muddy. But for me, I think I kinda jumped too hard n am damn unlucky coz I was standing at a quite muddy spot, so I kana muddy, not ordinary muddy but very very de muddy, shoes... :( Frm white to brown... Anyway, we did some skipping too, even worse, haiz.... E worse thing is, I had to wear it e whole dae!! Arhhh!! Somemore got concert!! Sianz....

Anyway, e concert was great! We get to view pictures of our teachers when they were students!!! Mrs Ooi is like sooooo cute la! Can see tt she haven changed much, still look e same!XD Mrs. Lim is like a neat freak lo! Anyway, they all look soooo diff frm now!! XDXD So nice to get to see their pictures:)

Then, it was e performance... Well, e 1st performance was not too bad, the mum was realli funny!!! Luv her, she had great acting skills, but for others, some parts were like "huh?" for me... E 2nd one was kinda boring, nth much, its only e pants dropping issue tt's funny!XDXDWe all saw e girl's undies!XDXD Okay, then came sec 205's performance, its a continue one frm b4... Soo funny lo! E emo girlXDXD Last but not least, e dance performance, which was e best one 4 e day... Its choreographed by a sec3 gal who was inspired by e movie: StepUp 2. IT WAS GREAT! SIMPLIY AMAZING! Luv e dance moves! Great job dance club! 3 cheers n 3 cheers n 3 cheers 4 KC Dance Club! Woo Hoo!

Oh yes, I got my Term 3 results slips todae... It was bad, dun nid to mention... Coz I flunked my Amath n English papers!!! Arhhhh!! Hate myself 4 being so lazy... Haiz, nvm I muz work harder 4 e upcoming exams!! GOGOGO!!!

Yup, anyway tts all for todae... Lastly I would like to wish all Teachers a HAPPY TEACHER'S DAY!!!! Yay!:D

A lollipop a day, keeps my sorrows away...

Difficult choice...

2008-08-28T17:51:00.000+08:00

Concert practice or Xi'an Trip?

Well, I'm here, back blogging again... Last few days haf been kinda stressful lo... I nvr felt sooo stress....

Yup, coz there's juz tooo much hw! Pile n piles of em n stress of tests n exams... haiz, I now veri e sian, byt I'm glad 2moro's Teacher's day cum ACES day! Finally! A day of rest frm e wk!!!

Btw, I guess my stress is also partially caused by mood swing... Nvr felt like tiz b4, like veri angry at everyone n stress abt everything.... Coz last time I'm like those kind of happy-go-lucky kind of person n neither sch nor h/w made me felt stressful...

Guess sec3 life is like tt, stressful, coz nxt yr's 'O' Lvls! Thinking of all e stuff I nid 2 rmb, so much topics, chapters, formulas, names, etc., I felt pressure although my parents nor anyone gif me any pressure abt my studies... So sianz lo... There's juz so much things 2 rmb!!! Arhhh!!

Anyway, coz me, mw n e.ow wanna go Xi'an, we told Mrs. Leong in abt July or so... But recently, we came to noe tt there would be a KCCO concert on 08-12-12! N e trip is like 8-18Nov lo, Mdm Foo scared it will hinder our practices, resulting in a bad performance, so she told us to consult Mr.Goh, whether we should go or not...

Tiz is like our very 1st concert lo, n its kinda impt as its like once in a lifetime experience, playing for KCCO's 1st CO concert! We've been practicing sooo hard for it, but Mdm Foo were scare tt if we go 4 e Xi'an trip, we would miss practices n would not fair well... However, e Xi'an trip was also quite hard for us to let go... I wasn't easy for us to go for e trip 4 certain reasons, but when we finally get e chance, CO concert... Haiz...

Anyways, I woke up at 9am todae n prepared to go TM, but when I was at e traffic light to e busstop, I saw e bus!!! Arhhhh, I've missed it!! But lucky, I reached kinda early anyway, but e.ow was already there 2mins b4 me.

Then came Penny, she was punctual. Then Valerie, yep, punctual too!:) But..... MW took so long lo!!! We thought she overslept, but luckily, she came b4 e movie started. Phew! But w8, wheres Sham???? Shes still on e way, .... Nevertheless, she also came b4 e movie started.

So, after watching e movie, we decided to head for lunch at Pizza hut. n we were like counting money there lo. e movie money n e popcorn money, like so crazy lo, hahaXD But its so sad, all of a sudden, sham's mum juz asked her to go, so no choice, she had to leave.... So its juz e 5 of us now. Oh yes, we also counted money after eating, Pizza money, LOL... Oh yes, it was then when we decided to get MW a bag!:D

Yup, so we wnet around looking for bag, bcause she's always bringing tt beatles bag n we haven got her a bdae prezzie. We also wanted to take Neo Print, but didn't find any of those machines, so sad... BTW, we didn't really got a bag 4 her, coz we tot none suited her, so e.ow n val bought her a hairband, MW looked soo cute when she wore it! Oh yes n me n penny bought her a PINK pencil case!XD Then E.ow n Val decided to head back...( Oh yes, n I bought a Lollipop poker!!XD)

Yup, so after tt, e 3 of us went to get ice-cream at Mcdonalds n ate it while we chatted... Then Penny headed home... So, its juz left wif me n MW!!! Coz we r going 4 a SCO concert at SCH at 8pm(coz MW got ticket, frm Mr. Yeo), so we decided to hang out till then. We looked at e watch, 3.30pm, ugh, still a long way to go... Actually, we wanted to stay there(Mcd) but its boring so we decided to head to MRT...

So we got there but dunno where to go, her house, my house or cityhall... So MW: " mini myni mini more, catch e spider on e wall, ..." Yip, so tt way, we chosed to go cityhall...So, no idea of where to go, we roamed around in suntec n marina sq 4 like 2-3hrs, toking abt all sorts of crap. Then after dinner, we headed for SCH...

Its where MW saw Song Sim n Jun An!! e guys at e music camp, she was like soo gan jiong la!! hahaXD very funny! She kept on panicking lo...XDXD Oh yes n I saw Meng Jie(MW's idol), yup he is quite shuai! Better then other baldys! Haha! Well, e 1st song was nice n I really liked it!:) Oh yes n we saw: Mr. Poh(cello tr.), my erhu laoshi, VSCO strings tr., Mr. Goh(our conductor) n ex-percussion tr....

Well, its juz another normal day todae... Anyway, todae's thursday, which is e day where our class haf all 3 sciences!!! arhhhh!! So stressful la... Anyway, todae's chem lesson was fun lo! Cause students frm Tie Yi Zhong Xue came our sch, E.ow decided to become one of e Tie Yi buddies, which means she will haf to yake care of em around e sch.... So, there was 3 boys, aged 17, in our class todae, n they attended e 1st lesson todae, chemistry...

So, its like any other normal dae, Mrs. Ooi juz kept teaching n writing on e board n we copy those down into our chem notebk while listening. Then Mrs. Ooi asked e boys if they noe what she was writing(Metals) n if they had learnt it b4. N yup! Bingo, they learnt it b4! Also seemed to be more pro lo! A boy even corrected Mrs. Ooi's mistake! HAHAHAHAXD Everyone were laughing like mad la! Mrs. Ooi looked kinda embarrassed, haha, so cute lo she! Somemore she speak in mandarin is kinda funny!XD Also, she even tried to tell e boy sth but s like 鸡同鸭讲 lo!

Coz in Xi'an they learn all e element's names in chinese ma! Mrs. Ooi is like "er...那你知道 Sodium 和水 react 是什么吗？和就是那个 calcium 和水，react 你有看过吗？" Haha!!XDXD So funny la! Mrs. Ooi's sooooooo cute! Great to haf her as our chem teacher, although sometimes she very de erm, impatient n fierce to us la! Guess coz we're naughty!XP Oh yes, Mrs Ooi also asked a boy to go up n teach, n he really did so! He changed the order of e reactivity series of metals, switch Na n Ca's positions... But in our TB, its Na n then Ca, but for em in China, its Ca n then Na... n Mrs. Ooi, confused tried to tell him but he was firm in his ans n e other boys agreed wif him, Mrs. Ooi then said "Maybe, metals reacts differently in different countries." LOL. Sooo funny la!XDXD Then she ask us go check on internet, here's what I got:

Anyways, I take triple science n 4 humans, I take core geog, e.lit n SS of course, cause SS is like compulsary! My favourite subject is PE, cause dun nid 2 study lo!!:) But for those studying kind of subject, I prefer maths, coz dun nid 2 rmb facts like mad, I hate rmbing stuff, so hard!! Another reason is b'cause I got maths tution, my only tution. tts y, i normally do quite ok in maths lo:) my tutions' really fun, no h/w, no stress yet i still can do well 4 my maths n learn alot during the fun lessons wif my friends:) Its cheap too!

I like brands like cadbury chocolate, ferror rocher,belgium chocolates, almost everything except cheapo chocolates tt doesn't even taste like chcolates. I like ice-cream too! All kinds of flavours, love em lo, so cooling, great for e hot weather in SG. Whenever I go to a restaurant, I always look forward to desserts like cakes, ice-cream, fruits, pudding, chocolates, etc... I guess I haf a sweet tooth!XP

Anyways my class is like so crazy abt him la, ok maybe not our whole class, it probably juz Clara n tt gang of olmypic lovers! Clara's my chem expt partner, we always do chem expts 2gether. anyway, back to Clara's obsession of Phelps, she like cut almost all e articles abt him and kept em in a file, nice n neat. she even brought some to sch n paste on our notice board n on top of our white board, also writing all e stuff abt olympics n Phelps mostly! hahaXD so cute! tt time, when Phelps is swimming for his fourth or fifth gold, its like she knew e time of e telecast, which is during her core lit lessons, so she n Grace, another Phelps obsess person, ask e teacher 4 permission to go to e canteen to watch, cause our canteen is e only one which is showing e olympics, the teacher agreed to gib em 3 mins n they immediately rushed down... after a few minutes, screaming was heard, n according to val, coz I'm not a core lit student so I dunno wat happened I ask val, Phelps won n they were like so happy lo, so as said they came back after 3 mins n started telling everyone Phelps won n was like soooo excited lo...XD hahaXD Ok, in case u dunno how he looks like, here's his pic:
