Figure 8.

I need you more than I can take.

Singapore has been great to me! (: Sorry for not being able to post for two weeks because I've been a little busy catching up with my family and friends in Singapore! Oh, and for the previous post, it's delivered two weeks late because I forgot to post it when I reached home.. 

Anyway, I went out with Yi Jie on the eighth! It's been great having her around. It's kinda saddening to know that that outing might be one of the last few for us since we are most probably heading towards different institutions in the next chapter of our lives. We went to Orchard for our outing! But before that, my mother gave me vouchers for Takashimaya upon knowing that I would be heading for Orchard. Had breakfast with YJ before getting tickets for 'Wreck-It-Ralph'! Then, we headed to Takashimaya to buy 4 packets of Takoyaki for Lunch! I would have forgotten that she doesn't like mayonnaise if she had not reminded me not to put any mayonnaise dressing in her packets! Oh, and I bought her a few packets of Matcha Pocky! Headed to Cathay Cineleisure to catch our movie but we were about 30 minutes early. So, we decided to stone at the tall tables near the cinema to chit-chat. We each ate about one packet of our takoyaki while waiting and smuggled the rest in.. Oh yeah, she downloaded Phewtick onto my phone and I found it quite cool initially because users are able to get $30 in their Paypal account after accumulating a huge amount of points! But I discovered the undesirable effects when I got home because you'll be giving away your current location to other users of the app too. And to make things worse, it's kinda like an app for stalkers. I would like to have some privacy and am still quite surprised to find out that I hadn't un-installed the app yet. Now that reminds me..

Moving on, the movie was awesome! Headed to ION orchard to accompany YJ to buy her new set of earpiece! And after that I headed home to play LoL and dinner (:.

Went out with Jue Ying on the 9th at Kallang Leisure Park! She was late for about 30 minutes, but I wasn't mad because I remembered myself being late for about 5 minutes for most of our hang-outs. And that occurred more than 10 times! Besides, I wasn't exactly bored waiting for her because I was wandering around the mall. There's a mini Korean Mart there and the stuff they have is quite cool! ^^. We had lunch at a Japanese restaurant. I think my meal was worth the price, even though it may be a little pricey for a lunch. Anyway, I had a Salmon Teriyaki Don, Yakitori and Matcha Ice Cream for $10! (: Went to the Bowling Alley downstairs for two games (:. I think I did quite okay because of my lack of experience in Bowling.. Headed to Starbucks to get JY her macha-whatever drink. And guess who I met? AIKO! Ahh. She's cute, just saying. Anyway, she's there for netball and I was quite surprised to see her because it has been one-and-a-half years since I last saw her. AND SHE RECOGNISED ME! She was telling me how the OBS T-shirt I was wearing was awesome because she had one too.. Haha.. Anyway, JY and I went to browse through a mini book fair before heading home..

And then there came judgement day. It was the time for reckoning.. I still remember myself being sick to my stomach whenever I thought about my results. Anyway, I headed out to Nex with my family to have a quick lunch at Hot Tomato! My dad told me that I was most probably going to receive 14 points raw for Os and that freaked me out. Headed back to school nervously to await our verdict. Mr Teo told me to relax when he saw me, but I still panicked anyway.. Felt a little relieved upon seeing the smile on Mrs Ong's face when she was walking up the dias. Was searching frantically for the distinction rates for Combined Humanities (Geography) and Biology and was even more relieved upon realizing the high distinction rates! And soon, it was time for the result slips to be given out. And it sucks being the first register number in a class. You always get your results first. Wasn't ecstatic nor sad about it. Just contented. There were subjects I thought that I could've done better.. Anyway, here are my results :

English Language - B3
Combined Humanities ( Geography ) - A2
Elementary Mathematics - A1
Additional Mathematics - A1
Chemistry - A1
Physics - A1
Biology - A2
Chinese - A2
Higher Chinese - C6 ):

Was quite disappointed with my HCL because that means that I'll have to retake Chinese in JC because I don't want a 'C' to appear in my A-level cert. AND FUCK STOMATA AND GUARD CELLS. YOU CAN SUCK MY DICK. That stupid mistake gave me an A2 ):. FUCK IT.

Went home afterwards to consider my JC choices since we were only given 5 days which include a weekend to make our JAE decisions. ):.

Anyway, headed to NYJC's open house with Chang Jie, Mun Pin, Qiyu and Ting Hong! The facilities there are REALLY cool (:. I felt the sense of belonging the moment I stepped inside the school compound. I like the range of CCAs that it offers, and the results there have been pretty good too! Watched a few performances from the various performing art groups before asking questions about appealing and stuff..

Went to Central Macs to have lunch before going to AJC's Open House! Was kinda disappointed with it though. The facilities looked REALLY old and the goodie bag didn't contain anything that has any information about the school.. Not even a map. Well, at least I get to meet Diana! It's really nice to see her again! 

Visited SAJC's open house with Sarah and Chang Jie on the 12th! Was also quite disappointed because I felt kinda underwhelmed about the facilities there as I had high expectations for that JC.. And Sarah was right. NYJC is better than SAJC in almost every area, except for the excellence in certain CCAs. But the welfare in NYJC is definitely better! Walked around the compound for about 20 to 30 minutes before heading to Serangoon to have lunch at Carl's Junior! Ah. I really wanna visit Sarah's workplace someday ):. And I hope that it'll be real soon because school's starting soon already..

Anyway, completed my JAE applications on the 13th upon much deliberation. It was about the arrangement of my first two choices. ACJC and NYJC.. I think that both schools are good in their own ways. But distance definitely did matter. So NYJC won hands down. And now, I'm hoping that I'll be able to enter NYJC because I've already known many of my friends putting it as their first choice too! AND MORRIS IS GOING TOO ^^. Woots. He's one of my closest friend in SAJS (:. Ah. I remember the school bus rides we usually had! We used to sit next to each other on the bus home! And the best part? WE CAN GO TO SCHOOL TOGETHER ^^. He lives like just two blocks away from my house ^^.

Moving on, went out with Jue Ying on Thursday in Plaza Singapura! Had lunch together at a Japanese restaurant before wandering around the mall~. Was quite surprised to know that Mark&Spencer has a food hall, just like the one in HK! Ah.. Kinda regretted not giving my close friends other stuff from HK ):. But I'm glad that they received and liked it (:. 

Had green tea snow ice at the basement for a short tea-break! It was simply delectable, but of course, not comparable to the ones in HK. THEY ARE JUST TOO GOOD (:.. 

Headed to Ang Mo Kio to grab JY's dose of Koi before walking around AMK Hub for about 30 minutes before meeting Randy and Joyce at the cinema. 'Gangster Squad' is a nice but slightly gory movie. Ah. Emma Stone is inside. I LOVE HER TO THE MAX! Anyway, the movie was more memorable for me because something happened in the cinema ^^. Well, I don't think Randy and Joyce know so I'm going to keep my lips sealed before any nonsense comes out from my mouth ^^.

Had Pepper Lunch for dinner! It was nice catch-up session with Randy and Joyce! Ah. It's sad to know that I might not see Randy anymore since we hardly hang out and we'll most likely end up in different JCs. ):. 

Anyway, I've been spending the rest of my time playing LoL at home and catching up with my fellow gamers ^^. I feel blessed to have friends like them. Ah. Team rock solid FTW. Even though my support Lux may miss her snares during a few critical moments.. But it feels great to play with them!

Sorry about the abrupt ending, but I gotta end this post now because it's 1226 now. Urgh. Gotta work on my endings..

I'll see y'all again..

You're the reason why I smile (:
