Phew. Finished two tests today - chemistry and physics. Totally screwed physics up because I forgot how to draw the rays for a lens, and so I think I lost about 20 marks? Dammit I was so pissed at myself. Other than that the other questions were very easy.. Same for chemistry. Worried myself out for nothing actually haha.
I'm actually quite happy! Biology finally makes sense to me now.. Wonder if its the teacher.. I really like Phil! And his pronunciation of the word 'molecule'. Damn cute. (: I look forward to biology lessons now! Hopefully the trauma of all the Ultimate grades that I got in JC will ease off. I really want to be able to be confident in my studies. Thats a feeling that I haven't felt for most of my education years. And since God has granted me a second chance, I mustn't let Him down.
The weekend was super fun for me! Went to Northland with Pris, Sheryl, Boonkiak, Melvyn and Eugene to (finally) watch Transformers 2! Omg it was awesome, especially when 21 Guns was played. I absolutely love that song. (: (: Then I stayed overnight at Rydges where Pris stays! Served as a recce of the place too, since Brian, Puay and I are most probably going to stay there next year.. :D Pris brought me to the Chill Bar and we had a glass of Jack Daniel mixed with Diet Coke each. Stayed there for quite long talking about everything under the sun and laughing our heads off. Then this weird guy tried to chat us up and we were positively freaked out. He even said I had a very nice smile (WTS). Thankfully he didn't stay long and left with his friend if not I'd probably have had to resort to kicking him HAHA.
Took the train to church on Sunday with Pris.. After church we took the tram back to Glenn to get a change of clothes for me because I was staying for the night again then headed back to Rydges. Tried to study and do work while waiting for Wimbledon to start.. And when it was time, we went down to the Chill Bar again for a drink. Funnily, we were the only idiots in the bar watching the match. The few people who were in the bar weren't interested at all! Weird aussies yo. After awhile we moved to the pantry but this group of middle eastern guys nearby were talking so damn loudly we ended up migrating to the gym and staying there. Didn't manage to finish watching the match because it was really late.. Only lasted to the 4th set. But anyway I was greeted the next morning with the lovely news that my hero had won (:
Federer won Wimbledon!! Its his 15th Grand Slam title hahaha I'M SO PROUD OF HIM!! ♥ ♥ Poor Roddick though.. I think he played spectacularly well. Glad to see that he's still staying cute. :D
While showing Pris Sab's photos on Facebook, I suddenly missed Sab a lot. It was like this overwhelming feeling.. And I was temporarily sad. ): I really miss that stupid girl man! Her stupid jokes and faces.. But at least we Skype frequently. (: So I've been getting my regular doses of Sabrina Kwang nonsense HAHA. And I was looking through my photos and I really miss all my other friends as well.. Fang, Rai and Tiff, the guys, Shawn, Puay, Alvin, Stella, Leng and the list goes on.. It gets rather lonely here sometimes.. And its during those times that I miss everyone back home even more. Ohwell. At least I'm managing to survive. And I guess this is part and parcel of living abroad. Well you win some, lose some.
Tomorrow's a short day at school! Then after that it's our weekly lunch with Pris. (: Her aunt's making fried rice for me, yay! I don't have to resort to buying the (lousy) food at the Agora haha. I really thank God for putting her and Aunty Florence in my life. (: (Pris are you touched! haha)
