...is simply wonderful so far. =P

It's a bit strange not having to rush back to my desk and cram a thousand information about Bio or Chem or Physics and being able to laze around and be on the computer all day long, but it's a very welcomed change. =)

Celebrated the last day of the exams by going out with Anita, Michelle, and Imelda. We watched Race to Witch Mountain. Awesome movie, definitely recommended. Anita was on the edge of her seat the whole time, which was pretty funny to watch alongside the movie. =P

Pictures in Wendy's...

School starts tomorrow.

Huh.

Actually studied on the train ride yesterday, though it might not be a good idea to study with your headset on and a screaming kid across the aisle. Still, I got some studying done, so it was better than nothing.

Grandma is driving me crazy!!! This is one of the reasons why I don't look forward to being back here, and why I want to graduate and move across the ocean as soon as possible. I'm so sick of being bossed around and treated like a kid. Why can't I have those grandmas who cook brownies and remember how old you actually are and don't make snide, annoying comments while you're watching your favorite shows (When AI is on and she sees Randy, she'll go, "Is that an earring? Tsk." Bla bla bla bla. This happens almost everytime AI is on.). Not to be disrespectful, but could you just let me enjoy the show?

I try to be nice most of the time, but when you're already in a bad mood, it's hard to bite your tongue and not say something snarky.

I'd rant more, but I don't think that would be a good idea, so moving on...

I'm officially an artist. Well, not really. I made a gallery in this site and got some feedback. Will work more on it after the national exams are over. Wanna see it? Don't really know if you can without being a member, but here's the link anyway: Dancing in the Storm

See you guys in school tomorrow!

I'm home! And currently loving it.

Right now, I'm not studying. I will though. Tonight. This is only the first day of holiday, so I'm giving myself a moment of fun. But I will study.

Anyway...

Seeing Tipsy again kinda scared me at first. Especially after getting used to Mickey who is all kind of sweet and quiet. I mean, last I saw her (in January), she bit anything she could reach, she was small but rambunctious.


Now, well, she's tall! Her legs look like they went on forever, and when she jumps (which she does a lot now) she could reach my shoulder. You probably can't really see it in the picture, but I can't take the ones with her standing because she always runs after me whenever I try. =P

Well, the holiday’s over, so now I’m back home. It’s a little strange, saying I’m back home. When the holiday starts and I go to my parents’ house, it’s also ‘back home’ for me. My friend once pointed this out to me, but I can’t remember who. =P

Back in the city also means back to school. It’s nice, seeing everyone again. No one’s changed too drastically; a haircut here and there, some new rumours, but nothing too drastic. What not nice is getting up at five thirty in the morning and actually sitting through the lessons. And don’t forget that annoying classmate. Some people should have ‘I will learn to shut up’ or ‘I will try to be less self-centered this year’ on their resolution.

This semester already looks to be one of those semesters that just seem to fly by. Big exams lie ahead, including the entrance examination for NTU, which makes me dread my birthday more and more each day. And there are the practical exams, which is possibly more alarming than the written one. I just wish I didn’t have to work with that said annoying classmate. *sighs* I pride myself in being a pretty patient person, but Mother Teresa is probably the only person who would be able to tolerate him smilingly.

Maybe I should start channeling Mother Teresa for now. I won’t have to deal with him again in a couple of months anyway (here’s hoping I won’t ever see him in college). I do have more important matters in mind. Like the fact that I only have four months left in high school, and that though I know things might change and people grow apart, I still wish that, when I get married, my best friends would be there to tease me, that my bridesmaid may be the girl I know since I was nine. Or the fact that once I set out into the ‘real’ world, I might not be able to live as a writer and have to find a ‘real’ job.

So much for positive thinking.
