lololololol

Interesting, no dreams today. Oh well, I didn't want a nightmare anyway.

Had PE today. Mr Teo wasn't here today, so a Mr Tan took over (no, not the DM). Proceeded with our NAPFA test, which at that moment of time, was only 1/5 complete. The girls and me and kaijie had already completed the Sit-and-Reach competency, but we (me and kaijie) redid it with the rest of the boys. Managed to beat my previous score by 1 cm, which brings me to 47cm. Lols. Haha, kaijie still can't reach 35 cm. Loser :P jkjk.
Aww.... someone got called "Mark" again today. Poor thing.
OMGWT*BBQ!!! Sylvia is super elastic. She is freaking flexible, like she got no bones or what. Beat her own record by 7 cm!!! It's like she streeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetched all the way there.

Biology was pretty normal today. Had to write an experiment, "To investigate if carbon dioxide is given off during aerobic respiration". I realised that chemistry is TONS easier than bio. The papers are easier. You only need to grasp the concepts. And chem SPA is waaaaaaay less taxing than bio SPA.
Ms Kum confiscated jon's chocolate milk. Lols, he's a 'selfish boy' for not sharing it with the class. But he can always get back at her by showing her a lizard :P

!&#&%INFG^#HNFN*(^#$*(!!!!!!
Stupid school, reserve the VJC talks specially for the R1-R3 ppl. Leaving the rest to wallow in our grief. I mean sorrow. Or whatever.
Mr Lim exploded in class today. Not literally though. "THIS IS NOT A BUFFET! MAKE UP YOUR BLOODY MIND!" Then he calmed down. It's ok Mr Lim, our class can be very inattentive and picky sometimes.
Heard from TTY that Ngee Ann poly has an unlimited budget? o.0 So like his sis applied for approval to get a spotlight that costs $50,000. And the school approved. And bought two! I was like WTH!!! So rich. Apparently Ngee Ann Kongsi has too much money to burn.

Quoted from Wikipedia (not the most reliable source):
The Kongsi contributes 75% of its yearly surplus to the polytechnic; and todate, it has donated about $100 million to the polytechnic.
Note the lack of a space between 'to' and 'date'.

Mr Lim (our principal, not form teacher) ordered all of us down for a special meeting at our wonderful open-air luxurious (not!) hall. Recieved our prelim timetable and Night Study Programme (NSP) schedule. WTH!!! D&T collides with Pure Bio!! The ppl who set the timetable obviously didn't see that some people take both Pure Biology and D&T. So anyway, he talked about how we had to push, push, push!! to get to the finish line. And how we had to beat down other schools to get our distinctions. But that's a win-lose mentality, which, according to The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens By Sean Covey, is a defeatist mindset. Life is about relationships, not about who's winning. Do you ever ask your friend: "Who's winning in our relationship, you or me?"

Wasted like 2 hours at school staying back for D&T and not really getting anything out of it.
Managed to do 1 chin-up thanks to cheng boon's helping hand. Thanks a lot!

*Puts on critical thinking cap*

So I reflected, and discovered the reason why I was feeling so downcast. Specifically, my close friends, or lack thereof. I found out that all my old friends aren't really socializing with me anymore (although this is probably because we went to different classes). I can even count the number of times I went out with (or to a gathering of) friends: 3!! (including Tapestry III) But things seem to be a little better. Ranon said hello during chinese yesterday and today before school, and Bing Hong said hi (but then again, he always does :) ). So yeah, I'm feeling loads better now. Time to get off this emo topic.

*Takes off critical thinking cap*

I think I've changed a lot this year. Among other things, I actually feel motivated to do well in all areas.

Signing off to watch Ghost Whisperer.
