hmm haven't posted in very long.
and I realise I've got nothing to do tonight / tomorrow / sunday / monday / tuesday / wednesday.

so maybe that's why I'm writing blogging now.

hmm so what happened - "farewell" assembly was exactly a week ago. real lessons ended what a week before that.

and before we know it we're hurtling towards As and NS and the other 3/4ths of our lives already. as astee pointed out in the last chem lecture.

and I'm still feeling totally unprepared / not ready to face up to these things.
and still can't quite believe that like my time in our education system is almost over.

time passes too quickly - can still remember my first day in RI. and in RJ. (can't quite remember most of the lessons in sec1 / j1 though). and really I still haven't wrapped my mind around the fact that it's been 6 years already.

doesn't quite seem/feel like it. and it still hasn't really sunk in yet.


oh well. enough of boring stuff already. and I suspect I'm becoming rather incoherent. which is why I'm so not a writer just a mere blogger.

and speaking of writing my admissions essays are proving to be rather disastrous.
somehow I can't seem to write those deep / insightful / multi-layered (?) essays that everyone else has been churning out. but then again it's not like I particularly enjoy reading them. especially since after the 10th one or so they all seem all too similar already. and I usually end up giving up after the 2nd paragraph or so when reading them. or I need to re-read the things twice or thrice since they all get pretty boring and very dense as things move along. but then again I'm not a very good writer and as ks puts it I have no literary skill whatsoever.

and I so agree since I only read plot-driven novels and nothing much else.
oops.

but yeah somehow I find myself rather unable to write anything vaguely resembling these things - perhaps I'm too obtuse / direct / whatever. I'm guessing the problem with me is that I tend to see things as they are and nothing much more (maybe that's why I could never get lit) - which is proving to be very irritating right now when I'm supposed to write essays with personal voice and whathaveyou. and I have no idea how to get this bloody thing across. thus I really wonder if I can get anything out by the 1st. of january next year.

or I might as well go NUS. or somewhere in the UK where they don't really care so much about your essays. blah. I'm too lazy already.

anyway apart from that nothing much else - school's incredibly boring nowadays. and my timetable has been extremely empty as well. mainly cos I can't be bothered to start on revision. and I've been skipping all the mock papers I've signed up for. oops.

but on the brighter side of things I've been eating a lot / going all over the place for lunch and sometimes dinner these few weeks. lol. and I've all but given up on clearing NAPFA anyway. and speaking of NS they still haven't given me a PES status yet even though my PES D only lasts until 4/10. and I went for the medical checkup on the 11th (and did you know MINDEF pays 300 bucks for every single scan they have us undergo thanks to the wonky ECG machine in CMPB) and wasted 3 hours or so. and they didn't find anything wrong (as expected). but thanks to government efficiency I'm guessing CMPB still doesn't know anything so if this keeps up I get to go in in march. and if I feel like clearing NAPFA next year I can enter in may. lol.

but also on the 11th I think I went to yishun for the first time in my life. didn't quite like the place though. but the weather was nice.

anyway I should really start mugging soon. but then again there's always the power of the bell curve plus there are no numbers on your result slip for As anyway. or notice board outside the SAC.

lol.

ok I think this post is of a sufficient enough length.
and I'm getting bored of writing typing as well. hm.

I'm dying of boredom here.

maybe that's why I'm posting. lol.

tuesday - woke up at 11am. then went to NUS for a boring talk. blah.

wednesday - went to school! for what I also dunno. so slacked in the library for quite a bit. then got summoned by KS ._. but was quite interesting listening to him interrogate gxz again.

thursday - woke up at 11am yet again. stayed home and did nothing the whole day.

friday - went to school again for no reason. so loitered around and got laughed at by mr lu who insinuated that I messed up geog or something. blah. then went to plan november camp so at least thankfully most of the acts are up by now.

today - woke up at 11am again ._.

ate breakfast and then had lunch 2 hours later. and now I'm wondering what to do again (maybe that's why I'm blogging now).


and given what happened on friday I so don't want to go to school on monday / don't want next week to start. blah.
hence it's quite ironic that I'm dying of boredom right now.

oh yay it looks like it's going to rain.


hmm what else - now I wonder what I should be doing right now.

I guess I could continue with emerald. hmm. but played it once through already last year so now things are getting a bit boring.

ah yes there's always cracked.com
