Religion... and other stuff

Since I am too lazy to post many blogposts on different subjects, I shall just have everything under this one blogpost.

Let me go onto the subject of "other stuff" first. I just read Huiyi's blog (which was funny HAHA), and I saw her post about dreams/nightmare, and I was reminded of my own nightmare, which I told Dion and Shermaine when I went out to study with them.

The nightmare went like this:
Somehow, Ryeowook from Super Junior was in this freaky nightmare LOL. He was training for standing board jump (which is weird because who trains so hard for that). He even has a coach for it -.- Then, when it came to the point where he was supposed to jump, ryeowook's face changed into that of an old uncle. Yep, which was I guess better after you read what happened next. The old man tried to jump, then he tripped while landing, and his legs broke. HIS LEGS FREAKING BROKE INTO TWO PIECES. That is just so scary!!!! It was as if his legs were clay or something, and it just... broke. It might not sound much here but I saw it in the dream and it really gave me the freaks. There was no blood though (luckily).

So there, my weird nightmare which is so freaking scary.

And I went to USS with Shermaine, Zixin, Dion, Joelle, Cherlyn, Beatriz, Sheryl and Xue Chun on Thursday :) Had great fun though I really wanted to sit on more rides. I guess our priorities were different. Like for those who it was their first time there, they really wanted to take many pictures; the scenery was their main focus. But for me who has been there before, my focus was the rides, not so much the scenery. My personality was also one which defined a trip to the USS by the number of rides I took. So different people had different priorities. But the trip was still a good one :) I sat on both the human and cylon battlestar roller coaster. I felt the human one was much more scarier because there were a lot more deep falls, which made me feel like my heart was dropping. Cylon just had more turns and spins, which were technically, less scary.

Okay, now onto the topic of Religion. Okay, I know that this is gonna be very very sensitive. So to anyone out there who's gonna take offence at what I say, just think that whatever I say is total crap and bullshit; please do not take this the wrong way.

So, I wanted to blog on this topic because my grandma has been 'praying' (not sure if that is the word) for my face to have less pimples (which just gets me annoyed because that is what all my family is talking to me about these days, even my dad!!! PLEASE JUST STOP TALKING TO ME ABOUT MY FREAKING FACE. rant over.). She's a Christian by the way. I was okay with that because I mean, that was a way for her to show her concern over me, or more specifically, my face.

The turning point came when she asked me to pray for myself!!! Which is just weird, for me. She told me to hold my hands to my face and pray to God, saying that he is a great doctor, and asking for him to 'fix' my face. I dunno... but to me, it felt like an indirect way of telling me to believe in Christianity and God. I know that that was not my grandma's intention but it felt like that nonetheless.

The reason why I felt uncomfortable was because I was a free thinker. I mean, I've always thought I was Buddhist/Taoist until I asked my mum. Apparently, my father is a free thinker, so am I. I think that being a free thinker suits me fine. To quote my dad, "I am too cynical." To clarify: I am not an atheist.

True, I was born a free thinker, but I would also choose being a free thinker (I did not know there was such a thing. I thought we all had to believe in some kind of religion when I was young, so I was kinda glad there was such a thing called a 'free thinker'. lol). It's just hard for me to imagine there being a definite god. I believe that there might be some supernatural or more powerful force than ourselves, but I don't exactly think that we can label it as god. Luck, chance, coincidence?? These are not really 'gods', but these are some other worldly forces that also control us in some way. It's hard for my mind to reconcile it in the manner that some do.

However, I am definitely leaning towards the Buddhist side. This is partially because my mum is a Buddhist so I have been visiting temples with her a lot since young (which explains why I thought I was Buddhist). I guess that way of 'thinking' and 'believing' has been embedded in me since young.

I guess in the end, all religion will want us to do good. That's something synonymous with all religion (at least, so far from what I know) and I think that should be the main focus of religion. Not whether there is a god or not.

Ultimately, I think that we, as humans, should believe in ourselves more than any other creature/ thing/ god. We are the ones that are going to make it possible, not anybody else. Our actions are what makes the difference (implying that if I put more cream/stuff on my face more regularly, my face will get better - LOL, WEIRD EXAMPLE HERE).

I am not here to say that either of us are wrong or right. We are all entitled to our beliefs, as long as they make us believe in life and hope, and make us feel good. I think that there is no wrong or right regarding these things, so keep an open mind.

Who knows? Many a few years later you will see me blogging a post about why I believe in a certain religion.

OVER

THE END-OF-YEAR EXAMINATIONS ARE FINALLY OVER!!!

Ahhh... That feeling of bliss, liberation, freedom, satisfaction that I have overcome 8 papers, and that today, the final hurdle has been cleared! :D

*Jumping and skipping madly around, grinning from ear to ear like a fool*

I can't believe that it's over! I can actually still remember studying so hard for history the last week, and worrying frantically over the EOYs last month! It's amazing how time flies! The papers came one after another as well so that really contributed to the speed at which the exams finished.

THIS IS FREAKIN' AWESOME.

Oh, but something did happen during the Math 2 Test today. My mechanical pencil stopped working 1 hour into the test. I wanted to draw a line on the graph and the pencil just could not work. I PANICKED. I actually dismantled my pencil to see if anything was stuck. I was lucky that I did the paper quite quickly so I was already at question 10 at that time, meaning that I could afford to waste some time worrying over my pencil. I flipped to the back and found a question where I needed to draw my graph - IN PENCIL. More time freaking out. Then, eventually I came to the conclusion that I should just move on instead of wasting my time. I continued doing the questions until I came to the question where I needed to draw the graph. Since the mechanical pencil was stuck, I just slotted in a short piece of lead through the front, hoping that it would stay there so that I could draw my friggin graph. AND IT WORKED!!! VIOLA. And the rest is history. All this just further convinced me that 1) Luck really does matter in a test, and 2) I should bring two pencils to a test.

I went to watch Taken 2 with some 4K friends (14 of them, which is A LOT!! Amazed at the turnout).
It was basically a rehash of Taken 1, with some new CIA stuff added in (really really cool stuff - the circles intersecting). When we were in the cinema, everyone just went, 'Wahhh. Smart, man.' You can literally hear people saying that. The movie never fails to keep you on the edge, making for a very good thriller and action movie. I got to see more Liam Neeson action (which is GOOD - watched the movie because of him). One flaw of the movie is that some lines get a bit repetitive. "Took", "I'll come back", "She's safe". Yeah, I get why they must be said, but can't the scriptwriter be slightly more creative?
Overall, I would give this movie 3.5/5 (which is an A, for the record)

Got some plans for tomorrow, can't wait!!

EOYs... are coming to an end!

Okay, so the exams are ALMOST coming to an end! I am left with 3 papers and am looking forward to the coming Wednesday already!!! :D

What I shall definitely do when EOYs are over:
IMMEDIATELY GO WATCH TAKEN 2 (HAHAHAHA)
Buy books/ borrow books and immerse myself in fictionalised worlds until harsh reality drags me out from them when I get back my test results
Celebrate and 'high' on my blog!!!
Watch korean dramas.
WATCH TV WITH MY FAMILY (something which I wasn't able to do recently D:)

So far these are the few achievable and realistic 'goals' I have planned for my 'retirement'. Anyway, I have found this interesting book in the library - The Russian Interpreter. Looks interesting so I shall go borrow it :)
Oh, and I am currently desperately to read this other book called The Shoemaker's Wife because all the reviews are full of praise for this novel! *excited* (I just realised how 'no-life' I am because I actually get SO excited over books. HAHA)

I went to eat out with Dion and Zixin today at Hot Tomato, Nex. LA Paper was over, and today was a Friday, so why not just eat and slack? We had great fun just sitting, eating and basically chatting. LOL. We laughed a lot! Zixin laughed so loud until everyone in the restaurant heard her HAHA. We were talking about future boyfriends/husbands and about really really funny stuff HAHAHA. Oh one of the points we were making was about how important it was to find your 'right guy' during university because when you go out to work, everyone will be very competitive (so no one would actually fall in love), and that workplace romance was a no-no.
Funny to say but I think that we are actually quite mature for 16 year olds. HMMM...
Oh, and Dion said that when we clench our fists, the number of fold lines made at the pinky finger will tell us how many relationships we have. If that is true, apparently I will have 6-7. WOW. THAT IS DEFINITELY SO NOT HAPPENING. HAHAHAHA. Yeap, so basically we were laughing at all these weird stuff.

Yesterday, I went walking around Nex (yes again!) with Dion and Huiyi. Initially, our plans were to just buy bubble tea, but it soon evolved into walking and wandering around Nex. It then turned into spazzing over books at Popular (finally found people who are also interested at just flipping through books at Popular). Our physics paper ended yesterday and LA Paper was next, so there was no need to study - this, of course ended up in us wasting time away like yesterday. XD

Recently, something bothering me is the year-end party for year 4s - Dunmania. We are Dunmanians with no end. Get it? Punny right? :D
We have to wear blue/white, which is like, what I don't really have in my wardrobe. And I am just afraid that the party won't really have a 'party' atmosphere. HAIZ. I really shouldn't worry so much, and just go there and have fun :D <-- positive thinking going on here.

Shall study Chem tmrw :D (totally wondering what's this smiley face doing here)

Meanwhile, I am totally giving myself a break (which I am not sure is hard-earned) here.

Oh, and someone, ACTUALLY COMMENTED ON MY BLOG. Ivy (my cousin) did, but it wasn't so much of a 'wow' because she's someone I know. But still, thanks for the comment HAHA.
Anyway, it was a blogger of the blog loveourchildrennow.blogspot.com . Basically, she found my blogpost which talks about Humanities and PSLE, which I posted on Saturday/Sunday. This is really cool because SOMEONE OUT THERE IS ACTUALLY READING MY OPINIONS. (Really similar to when my blog appeared in the news HEE.)
I am just grateful that people actually take my opinions seriously. I do make an effort not to have too many grammatical errors or slangs during one of my more 'serious' blogposts, so it's a pretty nice feeling have to know that my blogposts are appreciated :)

STUDYING AT HOME IS THE WORST.

I should have gone to school to study. Or gone somewhere else.

STUDYING AT HOME IS JUST NOT CUTTING IT.

*REGRET. REGRET. REGRET.*

Should have just gone to school =.=

Studies

So I was reading the Straits Times this morning when I came across two interesting articles mainly focusing on aspects of studying.

Studying Humanities Will Make The World A Better Place

This is WHY the education system should not scrap humanities. Go read the article, if you can find it, and you'll see what I mean. Humanities are more focused on relationships. Relationships between man and man, man and the environment, man and the world, man and his past. How can you forgo these relations just because science and technology seems more important in today's context?

Furthermore, to elaborate on what this guy (Jim Leach) said, humanities make it easier for people to form national identities and relate to their own cultures. Isn't this what Singapore needs so desperately amidst all the talk about what is a Singaporean identity?

Humanities is so closely interlinked with us. It is the study of OURSELVES. Don't we need humanities to reflect upon ourselves, see our mistakes and improve on it? If no one studied WW1 or WW2, would the world still be as (relatively) peaceful as it is now? We would never understand the gravity of some mistakes our predecessors made.

Besides, aren't students supposed to have a choice of what they want to do? By closing the doors to humanities (or leaving only one door by combining history and geography), are we leaving the students with a choice to do what they want? 

A subject that is deemed unimportant is not necessarily truly unimportant.

How ironic since I am supposed to be studying literature instead of typing this blog post. The point is, don't let temporary perceptions of society affect policy making. THE HUMANITIES WAS INVENTED/STUDIED FOR A GOOD REASON. If we scrap it now, are you saying that all those 50 years of education was crap/useless? Then that must mean we should stop studying the Maria Hertogh riots and why it means so much to maintain the fragile multi-racial social fabric of Singapore as well, no?

Basically, stop diminishing the importance of Humanities.

A Place For Exams As Social Leveller

Scrapping the PSLE is a BAD IDEA as well. (The whole education topic is revolving around scrapping things these days eh?)

Read this article and understand why. Granted, PSLE gives parents and students a lot of stress. However, aren't the parents over-exaggerating things? Aren't they over-thinking the importance of PSLE? I don't even remember being so stressed over PSLE when I was taking it.

Yes, I was nervous, scared, a little stressed out. But definitely not pull-out-my-hair, burn-midnight-oil kind of stress. The whole issue parents need to look at is why do we even have PSLE in the first place?

A very basic reason: it provides a fair platform for every student to score.

Every students, no matter what background/race/intelligence, takes the EXACT SAME PAPER, on the SAME DAY, SAME TIME. The grading process is the same as well - this goes very well with the meritocratic values of Singapore.

During the exam, it will be just the students against the paper. Nothing else.

If we replace the exams with projects and interviews, it might result in an unfair platform (just as the writer of the article says). Students with wealthier backgrounds inevitably have better advantage over the other students where projects are concerned. They have better access to facilities (which will no doubt be provided by parents who are already oh so concerned and worried over PSLE). Besides, won't projects result in more stress on the kids? I mean, for goodness sake, they are PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS. I have never even worked on a proper project until I was in secondary school. Do parents actually think primary school kids have the mental capacity to even plan and execute a proper project???

Furthermore, interviews??? Seriously? What are you going to ask a primary school kid? What is your favourite colour? I would have answered purple. What are you going to be when you grow up? Everyone at at that age would have answered teacher. Also, don't oral examinations already fulfil this aspect?

Parents are placing PSLE at the same level as A-levels, which is a totally wrong way of looking at it. If we scrap the PSLE, what comes next? Scrapping the O-levels, then A-levels? Wow. Singapore would be exam-free!!! Even though I might actually be happy when that day comes, but is the reason of stress really worth the action of scrapping examinations?

True, I am currently having exams and am feeling stressed out (read my previous blog post), but I don't advocate the action of removing PSLE/any other major exams.
In fact, call me sadistic, but I think exams are a great way to build up a student's mental strength. I actually feel excited before every exam. The thrill of getting the paper, the thrill of reading the questions set by teachers all get to me. There will be tests in our lives everyday. Why not prepare the students for it, rather than letting them fail when they come face to face to a truly important test in their lives later on?

There are some parents (in the article below on the same page of straits times pg 41), who ACTUALLY WANT TO REDUCE THE WEIGHTAGE OF THE SECOND LANGUAGE PAPER, claiming that it will give the students less stress. That is the WORST IDEA EVER. To that parent, have you been reading the newspapers lately? Singapore is facing a crisis where our mother tongue language is taking a back seat to English. No true-blue Singaporean (of my age) can speak Chinese properly and fluently anymore! Which explains why I am typing this blog in English, speaking English 90% of the time and scoring a B for my Chinese language. -.- And the absurd idea of reducing the weightage of mother language paper in PSLE can actually be suggested? *Speechless*

PSLE should not be scrapped. If parents want other areas of talents to be recognised as well, simple. Allow a wider range of talents to be considered for Direct School Admission. It allows for other talents to be taken into account as well, while not overly-diminishing the importance of studies.

To the parents, stop complaining about stress. YOU, by pressurizing your children to study more and sending your kids to tuition, are the actual cause of stress for your kids.

Exam Stress

I think I am actually feeling really stressed, just that I do not show it.

Apparently, I was SCRATCHING THE WOOD PLANK OF MY BED IN MY SLEEP. Witness = my brother who woke up in the middle of the night because of that. I am guessing that is A SIGN OF STRESS. Either that, or I was writing out my LA essay in my dream, which is hardly any better.

My parents have also told me that I used to grind my teeth while sleeping during examination periods. Hmm. It is proven that grinding your teeth while sleeping is either due to the fact that 1) there is something wrong with the alignment of your teeth, or 2) one feels stress or anxiety.

WHAT IF... the scratching sounds were actually the sound of my teeth grinding??? That is scary - the sound that my teeth makes can actually be so LOUD. I worry for my teeth.

Exam stress is such a problematic issue. Thinking too much about it brings more stress too, ironically. I think this problem of stress is much worse in Singapore too. Students in countries such as Norway are less 'competitive' in a sense - everyone is provided with the same opportunities (they do not have streaming), which makes the students less worried about their results, since it would not affect the number of their window of opportunities. On the other hand, marks are everything in Singapore. A C is acceptable in Norway, while an A is the norm in Singapore. Too much emphasis is based on exams, which are mostly based on rote learning as well (I am totally against the idea of rote learning).

I admit that it is hard to suggest an alternative to exams as a fair mean of grading the students. However, this issue will definitely affect the mental health of students (AKA ME.) 

I always prefer this: Concepts over Memorisation.

Understanding the concept is more important than memorising of facts for me, which is why I prefer Physics over Chemistry. Chemistry is, admit it, based mostly on memorisation. Physics is all about the concepts. Understand and apply it - this is also a much easier way to study :D

Anyway, just finished my LA paper 1 today. The questions were obviously out-of-this-world. (Quite excited to get back the papers and see the comments HEE) My plan today is to basically slack and reward myself for all that hard work for LA hahaha. I shall work on History tomorrow :) 

History is another headache for me. And literature. THESE ARE ALL THE HUMANITIES SUBJECTS. How ironic that I am a double-science student! (Anyway, the plan to scrap some humanities subject from the syllabus is silly and SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED. HOW CAN YOU SCRAP HISTORY???!! NONSENSE. History is such an essential part of life, much more so than chemistry/biology/physics -.-) 

Already looking forward to the end of EOYs and HCL O-level.

Plans to do after EOYs:

Go to Korea (if possible)

USS with 4K girls

Watch Taken 2 and all the other awesome movies

SLACK

Read books!!!! (MUST-DO)

Read manga

Listen to more music

Blog more (if I actually have stuff to blog about)

Go to cousin's house and bake/cook

:D

Science and technology, and ethics

I am current grappling with the idea of how ethics is important in science and technology. This is A VERY INTERESTING TOPIC. First off, it is controversial - and I love controversial topics because they make me THINK. Next, it is a very relevant topic because we are at an age and generation where science and technology pervades every part of our lives. To have knowledge about such topics is going to be useful and essential in the near future.

A few of the topics I have just read through on the internet:
Genetic testing, Human-animal stem cell research, Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis.

Apparently, Singapore is one of the few countries at the forefront of stem cell research!! (WOW) So amazing. And I never knew that O.o
Our government allows embryos to be used in stem cell research, as long as stem cell is not extracted from them after they are 14-days-old. I found their reasoning very logical.

   "Within the 14th Day Limit: Research may be conducted on an embryo before it reached the 14th day from the day the gametes were fused. However, all such research is to be subject to strict regulation and undertaken only if there is very strong scientific merit in, and potential medical benefit to be derived from, such research. The BAC did not agree with the extreme view that an embryo is merely a collection of cells. While the BAC was prepared to recognise the special status of an embryo before it reached the 14 days limit, it did not consider this special status to be equivalent to the status that a living person would have.  Accordingly, the BAC considered it ethical to conduct research on such an embryo on a strictly regulated basis and subject to the conditions stipulated; and
  Beyond the 14th Day Limit: The BAC considered it unethical for research to be conducted on an embryo that has reached the 14th day limit and that such an embryo would be accorded full status as a person."

The 14-day agreement was because the embryo starts to show a primitive streak after 14 days. I think that this is a rather acceptable stand of the government. It is not too extreme or mild; it is rather moderate. Besides, it is my personal belief that an embryo (at least before the primitive streak) does not have consciousness or sentience, and therefore, cannot be truly considered as a 'human' or 'person' like the rest of the living humans. Regardless, I think that in the face of the various religious groups in Singapore, BAC managed to come up with a 'solution' that seems appropriate in Singapore's context.

Some scientists (not in SG) have also been producing headless mice and frogs. YES. You read that correctly. Guess what their ultimate aim is? TO PRODUCE A HEADLESS HUMAN CLONE.

That is just crazy, weird and obviously unethical. True, a headless human clone of yourself will give you the organs you need for organ transplant. Furthermore, it effectively wins the argument against opposers of cloning that the clone will have consciousness, and would be deemed as a 'person'. The scientists' argument is that by producing a headless clone, there is no brain, no mind, no consciousness. So, you are not really killing a 'human' in that sense. WELL, GREAT LOGIC HERE (sense the sarcasm please).

If you want clone infant to grow into that of an adult, even if it is headless, it is still growing. Growing = living thing. Even though it does not have consciousness or sentience, it is still considered a living thing. I mean, a patient in coma is also a person - here's the catch, but since he is in a state of coma, technically speaking, he has no consciousness. Does that mean that he can be treated as how your clone is going to be treated - killed for their organs? The absurdity of this situation makes me wonder how the scientists managed to convince themselves about the justifiability of their actions.

Are we really going to purposely create deformed human beings for the sake of saving the life of another? You have just officially created a life, and killed that very same life. All for the sake of another.

THIS is why this topic is so interesting. It gets us thinking about stuff like humanity and our understanding of technology and its appropriate uses.

Also, I think that people should get more involved in these kinds of debates! Basically, be more aware.

All in all, an interesting topic that is just as hard to score.

EOYs D:

really really dreading EOYs...

and I was only recently blogging about CTs being over (ironic).

I stayed at my cousin's house during the past few days. Watching many Super Junior-related stuff haha, and watched a few of To the beautiful you.

I went out on a few study dates with Shermaine and Dion too, which have actually gone quite successful. Greenwich is a great place to study :)

Oh, and yeah, my team got kicked out from the top 100. We did not get into the top 40. It was really a waste because we all felt that we did not give our best. The teacher ic did not tell us which of our three stories got selected, so we did not do any preparation AT ALL. We only knew about it 30 min before our story pitching, which screwed our confidence up. WE HAD ONLY 20 MINUTES TO PREPARE.
I am mainly upset because we got kicked out even before we had a chance to do our best. If we had been given the chance to show our best, and then got kicked out, I wouldn't have been so angry about it.

Anyway, I have so many things running around in my head... Eoys especially. How can anyone even create such a thing that tortures us so much?!

3 weeks more...

I wanna go Korea!!! FOR THE HOLIDAYS!

Princess's Man

I have finished watching Secret Garden and am now proceeding to fall in love with The Princess's Man! :) Frankly, I was kind of upset when I bought the drama and it had chinese subs, but I got over it now and am enjoying every bit of the drama! The drama is EPIC AND REALLY GOOD. It's very moving, with every moment put in its correct place. The characters are very real as well; you don't really hate all the bad guys because you see that they have their own reasons for doing so and essentially, we know that they have a human side to them as well.

And after watching this drama, I am actually starting to like Park Shi Hoo (the guy). YEP. I used to hate him because he was like this extra guy in Iljimae HAHAHAH. But I just realised how good his acting chops are! After watching this drama, you will definitely fall in love with him!! My perception of him is totally changed!

I also started taking notice of this girl: Moon Chae Rin <3 p="p">

She acts really well in this show. And when she's weeping, it really comes naturally to her; it's not like those shows where I shout out at the girl and tell her to stop crying and start doing something. I love that her character is very strong-willed as well. She actually DOES something in the drama that contributes to the plot, which usually does not happen because 'girls are weak yadah yadah'. So this drama did a really good job of writing her character.

Oh, she's going to act in Nice Guy with Song Joong Ki too!! Goodie!! :DD I shall keep an eye out for her :D

Haha, fan girling here~!

Oh and I LOVE THE OST OF PRINCESS'S MAN. Baek Ji Young sang the ost of Princess's man too!!!! (Same person who sang ost of Secret Garden) I ACTUALLY GUESSED THAT SHE SANG IT. Because it's so her style and the voice sounds the same. She's a really good singer!

Meanwhile, I finally finished my analysis of the Long Telegram.

George Kennan should learn to summarize. Why waste that much time and ink and make students' lives difficult?!!! D: 

And my group got into NEmation top 100!! :D

After CTs!

Common tests are finally over!! Yippee! :D

I swear that the CTs have actually had some kind of stress effect on me. Because I am currently having this annoying pimple breakout. And by breakout, I really mean breakout! GAH. It's very painful :(

I think that my whole life is just revolving around studies, tests and formulas.
CTs
After CTs
EOYS (in about 6 weeks =.= seriously?!)
After EOYs
O-level HCL

Only after O-level HCL can I truly be free...
Haiz.

Anyway, I had a 4K class lunch today to celebrate the end of CTs! An amazing amount of people turned up = 18! That is more than half the class, which is a miracle already. We ate at Astons (did not order the spaghetti this time!). I was stuck at the end, again. Haha. Elaine, Dion, Zixin and Clarissa made it interesting for me though :)
Afterwards, we kind of camped at a staircase nearby because we could not decide where to go. All of us took turns buying Goong Cha, which was funny because the longer we took to discuss, the more people went to buy goong cha. Me too haha.
A few of them eventually decided to go Jaime's house. I was hesitating but decided not to go since it would be quite inconvenient for me to go home later. I then window shopped with Elaine, Beatriz, Huiyi and Dion for a while. It was quite interesting actually going around to see all the high-heel shoes. Yeah, THAT WAS BASICALLY ALL WE WERE DOING AHAHAHAHA. But I got bored after a while. I then left while they continued to shop.

So I thought I would have plenty of time when I went home, but I don't know what happened. After I got out of my shower, it was ALREADY 6. My eyes just went O_O. And I actually checked the clock at my dining hall against the one in my bedroom to make sure it was working properly. That was how surprised I was. Time slip haha.

I read a little of Wuthering Heights - aiming to finish it this week if possible, seeing that CTs are over.
I have just been reading the synopsis about A LOT of korean dramas. I wanna watch The King 2 Hearts. It looks awesome :) So I started the 'research' because there is a sale of korean dramas at compasspoint and I wanna know which dramas are good so that I can buy them. Yep, I know, totally not the right reason to 'research'. hahah.

Hmm... tomorrow will be a long school day - ends at 4.15pm.
Dreading it. Yep. Totally dreading it. The day after CTs should be a holiday. (being self-delusional here)
Gonna watch Secret Garden now <3 p="p">
