today was a really really really boring day. there wasn't much to do around. and nothing much ever happened. just inccidents here and there. we watched the rest of romeo and juliet during lit and didn't do anything during science. but i did ask mrs tang about my chances of getting into the pure bio class. thank goodness i convinced her i can't do anything except pure bio. phew. during math class, mdm salenah was going through the math paper and all. we were all rushing to do the corrections on fullscape but since i had some of the front questions correct, i got so bored, i just had to write. so i wrote. but i got stumped when i couldn't think of a name for my character. it so always happens!!! i get really stuck when i have to think of a name because i need it to sound in tune with the era, the setting, the culture of the character's upbringing etc so it gets really hard sometimes and during composition exams, i always get prepared before hand so i don't get stumped halfway. a stupid thing really, but i'm really helpless at picking names.

recess was the usual thing and nothing much from there though i did chat with my friends a little and helped fur and co look for people for the EaZy sports thing 'cause i couldn't go. fly!!! hahaha.

chinese period was ok. we did quite alot of reading and i found out that chinese stories can be really interesting! so i have decided to bring my chinese book to read when i go overseas, instead of inkheart. i'm going to finish The Sight soon though. my second day! yeah! music was kind of boring too. we were supposed to watch parent trap but everyone was just 'uno-ing' to be bothered to watch it and there wasn't enough time as we all had to proceed to the hall for some road safety talk by a police officer.

we reached the hall in total record time as we left the classroom at the dire last minute as everyone was still 'uno-ing' everyone is so totally hooked to the game! it must be due to the constant drive of having nothing to do and it being the ONLY card game to be allowed to be played in school. we can't gamble as we would tempt and totally insult the malays. not that its a bad thing to not gamble. actually, i don't really like it. and i think interacting with different races and understanding their principals is a good influence over the other races. as in, i don't really play with poker cards now as it would be something like insulting the malays? so i think it was really good, us playing with uno only. it promotes racial tolerance!

anyways, we got to the hall and it was really full. the only class that wasn't there yet was 2/2. hahahaha. and the talk lasted about 50 mins, including the talk that mdm tay gave about bird flue. nelson, the speaker for the road safety talk was quite funny at times and he made his job sound really worthwhile. shall not go into details but he really stressed upon the importance of road safety and what not while mdm tay gave us a talk about bird flue and how the school would keep track on her students' holiday schedule should something happen and make the classes have a discussion on how we should inform each other should an emergency occur. i think it was a great idea? to make sure our education is not disrupted in some way or another due to an epedemic?

we went back to for history whereby mrs choo gave us this newspaper article and told us to write out reflections on what we think about homeless people camping and lodging at changi beach or at other beaches around singapore. immediately, my brain flew to the history chpt 13 on the hdb's aims to provide flats for low income families. i think they should provided temporary flats for the homeless and really help them get better paying jobs as one guy had to live on $50 a month! so he had to camp out at changi beach and everything. i really sympathize with him. i thought most singaporeans could really afford to like live in a HDB flat. apparently not. the sad thing is that the people who did spot checks just let them off. im not saying its a bad thing. but i think they should have done something about it? like alert their superiors or write in to the HDB board to ask about how the government would help these people. its a pity for them to be homeless and totally to the verge of being penniless. but i suppose they would do something or they would just be rellocated somewhere with better living standards.

after school, i totally stoned with the other 3 stoners. haha. we just talked about alot of stupid stuff? ok..maybe not that stupid. but we decided to go home and everything. but while we were walking, nat actually forgot to return 2/5's class key; so he had to go all the way back. we wanted to wait for him. but it was getting really dark and stormy and we didn't want to get caught in the rain so we walked off. fishy was walking at the snailiest snail pace ever! had to so totally push her to get her to start walking faster. we saw 198 and we were all hungry so we just went there to get to bedok and it so totally rained when we got there. so we just went all the way to long john's to eat lunch. havn't been eating long john's for an awfully long time and frankly, i didn't see what was so great about it but i went ahead anyway. it was ok though. maybe it was because i was hungry. but we ate anyway. we left the place and just decided to walk around until 4 something when we could all go home. so horsey went to comic collection to buy this weird maple card. and i frankly don't see why he had to waste the money to buy the card and to play the game. but its his money so what can i say? and besides, we both were sniggering when the shop keeper was talking to another one of the assistants about money being meant to spend and all that. we walked around and laughed at alot of stuff and we suddenly found ourselves at the same place but we took a diff direction and all. it was fun. then they accompanied me to the mrt station to take the shuttle bus and all. and i was exactly on time! phew! if not, i would have to walk in and i was feeling a tad lazy. not to mention tired. so i slept on the way back. wanted to continue with the sight at first but my 'eyelids were just too heavy for my eyes to carry' so i slept all the way. finally got home and totally took a cold shower to wake myself and continued reading the sight. i read for a long time! shall continue now!

this must so be the longest post i ever had. complete with paragraphing and almost completely english spelling that doesn't insult the english languauge.
