To think my curse came true! Basically, I told Aqil on Tuesday night that I hope it would rain the next morning. Indeed, it poured(hahaha). I was seriously frustrated at the fact that Pong can actually instruct for the entire school to assemble at the parade square on a Wednesday morning, when usually, it would be scorching hot. Why can't he just bring it forward a day or something? How selfish can this be. Thankfully, it rained. It was a laughing moment for me when we were in the midst of our National Anthem. Syafiqah and Shayne or Xuan Jie said something about NP choir, it tickled me. We sat, then we were asked to stand, but I refused. The next thing I knew, I had to stand.

(47 seconds after the start of the pledge)
Ms Wong: Jean, why are you sitting?
Jean: (mumbled) Whatever.

Why should I respect them when they do not respect NCC? I don't get it. This is obnoxious, I know, but I do not give two hoots about that. No one can get as agitated as me. I was chanting "Anti! Anti! Anti!" the entire day. 1800-ANTI-NPCC! Dial that hotline.

After school, it spells the start of partying! Many people behaved like the end of Mid Year Examination is the completion of our National Exam. A living example would be Jean! Woohoo. Ain, Nabilah and I headed to Downtown to lunch. Burger King, yet again. If I have the money to feast at restaurants everyday, I would not patronise fast food outlets. Three of us were pretty tired though, but still, we perambulated to Town Park. We saw Suhailah and Umaimah from across the road. Something hilarious happened. I was holding my bottle in my hand when suddenly, I felt a sting at my ankle. I looked down, and to my horror, I saw a red ant on my ankle. I panicked and I poured my water on my leg. Ain was like "Jean, wait! Wait! Wait!" I stopped and she flicked it off my ankle. Nabilah cannot stop laughing at that. I thought it was really funny too. 1800-SUE-RED-ANT. I want to sue that red ant for manslaughter of my skin tissue. It left a small blood mark there. That vicious red ant. It was a severe bite, grrrr..

I cannot stop 1800-ing Ain, hahaha. Annoying, but I like. Heh(:


As for today, I have no paper, which means, stay home! Be jealous!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TIMOTHY SWEETIE! Loveeeee you.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, WEI TING(:


For my following days till dear vacation(not bothering if it's American English, I just love this word) is over, I am going to just take a good break. Shopping! Movies! Just chill and relish my holiday! Unfortunately, revision still comes next.


Big Ben!

When you twist your eyelids early in the morning to catch a glimpse of the time, only to realise that it is time to wake up, you know it is time to rise. Argh, how anguishing.

All right, so as I ambled my way to school, images of a beloved quipster flitted across the back of my head. The feeling was instead, cracking my heart, just a twitch of it though. But boy does that hurts too. To interfere, Nabilah, I found solace in the bottle.

English Paper 2 and Elective Geography.

I just cannot cease mocking at my class's AMath kids, because they have to take their paper today. No offence though, I was had to make fun of them. Heh(:

After all that gruelling hours doing those papers, I was finally freed from the torment! (I thought this statement will be more apt to describe this Friday.) Nabilah, Shazreen and I left school together, but only Nabilah and I headed to Downtown. Psssss, sizzling hot!

Labourrrrr Day!
Ain was late! She came to my house half an hour late because she woke up at nine and bought her breakfast from Downtown and waited for her sister to vacant the toilet, hence, she was late. Heh. We headed off to central's bus stop to meet up with Mahir and Nabilah. Ain sang. We took bus 53, heading to the airport, and that frigging vehicle was really jam packed. The sultry weather killed the bus trip too. We went to Coffee Club at T3 for lunch! Nabilah and I had already visited that place the Saturday before this, but well, you cannot refuse good food like Alfredo! Nabilah and I ordered our usual while Ain and Mahir had Iced Mocha thing. It was a whole lot of guffaw, like gales of laughter. Ain, the President of Bangladesh, and Mahir, the one and only Citizen of Bangladesh. Then comes the dessert, Mud Pie! We relished our meal, promenaded around T3 and T1. We got our stuff, sang and dressed. It was merrymaking and we were convulsed with laughter the whole time. I barfed and the colour was cool. Not to be revolting, but there were streaks of pink/purple in great brown. When I was throwing up, I heard Mahir saying something in the background, "Oh my god, she really vomit siaa!"

Comical.

It was a relief. Then we finally (not so), finally, settled down at Burger King which was chockablock. How typical though. We grabbed a table and Ain and I got our food from the counter, yet again. It was more of a food, talk, music thing than of a Math stuff. Anyway, Mahir and I left early and we took bus 53 back. Woohoo(:

After examinations.

Anne, Cheryl and I headed to Downtown, Burger King, to have our lunch. Alex joined us and we coerced Lynn to come down first before meeting Charlene. So she did. Anne and Lynn left, and I was waiting for Nabilah to join us after her Literature lesson. When she arrived, we played a interesting and enriching game which I am way too lazy to elaborate. It was another good time.

Today!

I met up with Nabilah and Ain after their lessons. As usual, though. We saw Albin and Hui Han at the bus stop before boarding bus 53. As obvious as it can be, we were going to the airport. We alighted at T1 to have our lunch at Popeye's. We went on to T3, Candy Empire. Apparently, we were like small kids, and I do mean small kids, kiddos. We waited till we had the lift all to ourselves. When the lift was going down, we raised our hands as if we were in a roller coaster. You know what I mean, the feeling was awesome (did that twice). We got our candy treats and went back to T1 via the longgg walk way. There were travellators, and are you thinking what am I thinking? We fooled around! I cannot express them here, but it was such a sidesplitting moment. We finally settled down at the Viewing Gallery. Unfortunately, we did not start on any revision. Instead, we played the game we played yesterday, at Burger King. It allowed us to have a better understanding of each other, honestly. After staying there for so long, we decided to sing (for them). I had chocolates, yet again. Haa. Next, off to the beach (supposedly). We were on bus 12 and there was a group of guys in the bus. One of which, whom Ain recognises, is Mardiana's brother. So we ended up at Downtown's Burger King (again!) after deciding not to go to the beach weather was killing (despite of the time being at 1800). Coincidentally, the group of guys were there as well. We had our food and upon leaving the restaurant, that group said "bye" simultaneously. Nearly the entire area could hear that.

Guys: Byeeeee!
(few seconds later, after the door closed)
Ain: Eh, you got hear that? They said bye to us eh.
Jean: Yaaaaa.
Nabilah: Ya luh.
Ain&Jean&Nabilah: Hahahahaha!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, www.virjeanity-.blogspot.com!
You are three years old now(:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Suhailah!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Wan Yin! (when your birthday is tomorrow)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Joyce!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Jeslyn! (when your birthday was yesterday)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Terence! (when your birthday is tomorrow)

Let me start by cursing at the mosquito bite on my leg which resembles Australia on the world map in my Geography textbook. Eff and blind. I have mathematically calculated the size of that bite and it was about..

By now, it should be pretty obvious that I have done my revision today. Rarely would this phrase come out from me. So, awesome and marvellous. Woohoo. I missed school today to catch up on my revision. To my astonishment, Shazreen messaged me early in the morning, asking if I would be going to school today. There was a spark of humour when I read her message. Haa. If anyone disagrees that today's weather was broiling, then that person must have lost all senses. Today was like a day on a frying pan. Still, I did my revision. This is my achievement worth mentioning a couple of times here. Hahaha.


Jean! Jean! Jean!

Time to schedule what my life should be.

Fresh blood encircled tonight's full moon, tracing my gaiety, & swirling, akin dusts of a disintegrated carousel.

Basically, today was by far the most meaningful day, having my school uniform on. Rarely would I feel proud of myself when I am wearing our school uniform. Like, who does anyway? So this was what happened. My mom, and I mean by ever so real mom, dropped by my void deck this morning to hand me something. So I got her to walk me to school. Despite of my age now, I really felt like a little girl yearning for my mom to accompany me to school. It has been ages(since kindergarten) since my mom last sent me to school. It was a desire I harboured no one can ever fathom. Having your mom by your side, walking you to school, is a little girl's thing, but it was something I have never experienced when I entered preparatory school. It felt really lovely though the walk lasted for only a couple of minutes. My mom is great, like always. I have never reproached her for leaving me and my brother under my dad's care. She has always been a wonderful mom, cliche yet it is absolutely true to me. She leads her life the way she want, not giving a hoot about what others say. She believes in herself and holds her own set of principles firmly up high. I will never forget how she brought me up. Her comfort is my cure to my pain when I was young. It seemed as though she was my medication. I guess that is what we term as 'mother's love'.

Veer off to what happened next, I was there for the Literature workshop. I shall not elaborate on that because it wasn't any of my day's climax. Right away after the workshop, I met up with Nabilah and we sort of perambulated all the way to Downtown East just to catch a little movie over there. We grabbed a bite at Burger King. Both of us were practically famished. I have a confession to make. I abhor(too strong a word though) Downtown East's theatres. Firstly, it will be mobbed with 'fine' oh teenagers and kids lugging their parents over. Not something within my tolerance though. Next, just in my humble opinion, the concept of the washrooms are of sheer stupidity. Mind me. The counters to purchase tickets and comestibles are just confusing and odd? Everyone should just go there and have a look. Goodness gracious, their services are pretty slow, I must say. Anyway, the theatre for Definitely, Maybe was rather empty. That I reckon, was good. I enjoyed the movie with my dearest Nabilah. The movie itself was fantastic too. Not only the attention was brought to how way love works, it also touched on parent love. I can vividly remember a part when Will Hayes(Ryan Reynolds) told his daughter, Maya(Abigail Breslin), that the happy ending of his relationships and divorce is her. It was certainly a touching moment. It moved my heart. Predictable the film may be, but I just love this show. Gee, catch it!
