the prelims were over abt a week ago.
there were some unexpected news and some news that inspired me even further to follow what i really want to do, even though its really hard to achieve that.
i know it sounds really childish, like what all primary 1 kids say
but yes, i want to get into NUS medicine.
after seeing my mom's episode in the A&E, i guess i was inspired by that certain A&E doctor who was damn cool.
it doesn't take much to dream, but it takes loads to achieve.
it just depends on how badly i want it
and i'm prepared to give it my all.
anw, i really need to start studying again after playing daily for the entire past week
if only i can peel myself away from the tv haha:]

oh, i forgot to talk abt the olympics! yes i was practically glued to the tv watching all the live matches and i think i was on tv marathon rather den studying marathon haha. i guess if the entire sec 4 cohort does badly for prelims, it because of the all too addictive olympics haha!
anw it was great to see singapore win our first silver medal in like dunnoe how many years and the commentor on the final match between china n singapore was damn funny. haha, where got ppl comment like that one! but nevertheless, they put up a great fight. i was trying to study geog and sneaking glances at the same time so i hope i didn't flunk geog haha
yes,and michael phelps. i read this article saying that the other swimmers aren't bad and the writer said that its just that there's a monster lurking in the water cube called The Phelps that's y others can't win haha!
the gymnasts were great too! i saw them jumping on the beam and doing those somersaults in the air and still land on the beam, and still looking graceful. hah, i can't even balance on that beam even it was on the floor when i tried in sec 1 and they could still jump and land haha! i feel a tinge of jealousy coz they're like around my age and they're are winning gold medals while i am still lying around in my misery studying for God knows wad. maybe i should go uncover my hidden talent, that is if i have haha!

growing old scares me. really. not because of vanity but because of the diseases that come with me. esp after seeing my dad having this hemifacial spasm thing n having to undergo a brain operation to correct it. its not the operation that freaks me out but i've never seen my dad being so weak before and cannot even walk or talk properly though he's perfectly fine in the mind. well, he's the man of the house, the only man in fact, and the father that i've known is the strongest one, the one who solves everything and takes care of everything. but he's getting better by day, and that's all i ask for.
but anw, being young is good coz u can be irresponsible and do stoopid things that no one will ever blame u for and den laugh it off when u think abt it years later:)
anyway, i can't wait to go japan. i dun even mind the fact that the faster japan comes, the faster o's come haha. n once o's are over, den i can catch up with my lower sec and primary sch friends, ppl i haven't really talked to in ages:) i think its exciting to see how everyone's lives have became and we used to joke abt each other being our kids godma haha. being young reminds me that we do not need to think deep into things partly because we didn't learn lit and we could just eat hello pandas without worrying how much calories that would add to our bodies!
anw, a week before the start of prelims, i went with my mom to this down syndrome association charity gala dinner at some posh hotel. den there was this fashion show and all the models were like thin, tall and er gaunt. they were just like skin and bones but they were very tall...gosh, if only i had those legs! n i dun have to feel like a dwarf when standing next to sam and madeline at the same time. and hugging giants haha:))but i wore my mom's heels that day and i was taller like by 3 inches so it wasn't that bad haha
yea den i met eunice oslen there but she wasn't as pretty as i thought she would be. yes, makeup deceives ppl but it hides ur flaws so i still love it. haha
yes, one more chem mcq to go on monday. can't they put it tmr den i'll be free for the weekend to go shopping haha!:))
