Okay. I've just decided that I'm gonna fast for lent this year. Not a physical food fast, but more like... hm, social maybe? I'm going to ban myself from all social media until Easter begins.
So I thought I might as well update this ancient blog before I disappear off the face of the earth for like forty days.
Well, when was the last time I've updated this man. Let me update you on my life. It has been more than a month. I should do weekly updates.
Well, let's just start from... whenever. Let's go backward, since it's so much easier for me haha.
Today I went to botanic gardens to have a SYPA workshop with some of the people from media. Hong Huazheng and Jonathan Yeap. They gave us some tips then asked us to go take some photos. Basically the whole day was almost like torture and I had to miss 12:01 because of that. Also, to get to the room where the workshop was, we had to walk from one end of the gardens to literally the other side. It took us about half an hour. Well that's... good exercise.
Yesterday, before lit lesson started, Wai Yee mentioned how she would need to sit through 3 hours of praise and worship that night. Turns out she was going for ACNOW. Found out about it like a few weeks ago but I thought no one from our school would be going so I didn't bother asking anyone and I forgot about it. Freaked out and started frantically asking whether anyone from church would go with me but all of them weren't free. Wai offered for me to go with her and Yue Ning and her church friends. Awkward was the first thought then okay. It didn't turn out to be that bad. And it was really a great night. We reached ACS(I) a little later than we should've and I saw Andre but I couldn't confirm that it was him at first. Told Wai that I saw my friend and she asked what his name is. Guess what she and Yue Ning proceeded to do? Scream it when we were walking around. Oh great joy! Thank God he went into the auditorium already (I think) or I would've died of embarrassment. Hahaha, oh St. Marg's girls... Carina joined us before that and halfway during worship guess who came? Eugene! My goodness hahaha it was so weird. But overall it was an amazing time of worship but the sermon didn't match up. The worship leader had such an amazing voice. It's so hard to find guys with nice voices nowadays. :(
Still super great night and now I want to have more enthu worship sessions in church. I wish traditional Anglicans aren't that narrow-minded about worshipping. I mean like aren't we supposed to just have fun and all? Oh well, waiting for Festival of Praise.
Total Defence day was on Wednesday. Bianca Alyssa and I didn't go to school because we had to be at ITE West at 7.45 am. I was late, obviously, and the whole day passed really quickly. We didn't win. I was a little numb at first and it felt like I took a whole second to respond when the emcee called us on stage. Disappointment finally set in when I got home, or when I was on my way home. It felt horrible. I can't elaborate, just can't describe how it felt.
School's the same, got back a few tests, some were good, some were okay, a number were disappointing. But that's okay I guess, I still have time to buck up on whatever I need to.
I gave out meringues on Valentine's Day, to the class and other people. It was quite okay, judging by everyone's responses. Went to Island Creamery for ice cream, a treat by Miss Koh (as in P S), and met up with Valencia and Chermaine. Man, Chermaine's V-Day gift was amazing. Will not forget it anytime soon. Also, they shared that Social Studies and English are a lot more lenient in marking during O's so I needn't focus or stress about it that much. So this way, I should and will just concentrate more on my math and sciences. On a brighter note, I got my determination back to score well for O's.
Sabrina's friend (the chef, Wilson) came for 12:01 last week and it was such an interesting session. He gave us all words and made us give Sabrina words after that. It was so refreshing to change what we were doing. Let's just say that I won't be forgetting what he said anytime soon. After that, while Zac and I were waiting for our parents to fetch us, we hung out at Orange Thimble and he and Michelle invited us for a barbeque (sausage barbeque) the Saturday after the next, which is next Saturday now. Can't wait!
I don't think anything much happened that I can remember. Oh, celebrated Kai Wen's birthday on her actual birthday. 'Twas fun. Her house is actually quite nice, and she should stop being so humble, like how everyone in class lives in landed/condo but she lives in HDB. But her house is actually so big. Goodness.
Okay, I think that's it. Yep.
Oh, here are some pictures I took today that I think are quite nice. Please let me know your comments cause I need to find pictures for the SYPA competition :(
