happy happy day!! =) one more day to the hols! cant wait! (although we still have to hand in our gp articles and promos are in 1 month) haha...tmr's teacher's day...wonder how the school will celebrate it?? oohh.....just realised that 3/4 of a years has passed already. that's a longg time!! gosh! doesnt seem that long right? time has passed so fast without me realising it. soon it would the end of the end and then onto A levels. yupp...heh...and we are getting older by the day. so we should cherish the time we have now and make full use of it. haha...like eating whatever u want.

whee....went to sakae today with sw =) had the buffet thing. haha...it was an impromtu thing but it was fun. ate sooo much! still bloated now and that is an understatement. heh...the moment we sat down we called the waiter and started pointing to a zillion things in the menu. haha....the waiter must have thought that two crazy ac girls just came in. we ate for about an hour plus till we could not longer stuff anything else into our mouths. 'burp' heh...happy and contented now. ^_^

oh yess....got back my mock chinese paper today. sighs...compo was soo badly done. probably the worst in class. -_- but wells...its a mock paper. yes. will buck up for the actual one.

whew!! i can finally relax and catch up on my sleep. this entire week has been so busy. on mon, had to study for gp package test the next day. tue had to study for chem test although i kind of fell asleep in the middle of studying. wed had to do WR!! i actually spent around 4 hrs plus doing the WR. since around 7pm till i went to bed. yes...no other work was done. luckily my group is very cooperative. :)) all did our parts in time. yay! so glad we dont have any tests on thur and fri. i wished we had more hours in one day, like maybe 36 hrs?? ever sleep for 24 hrs before? i would like to try that someday...but that day would probably never come or come when i finish schooling or something. actually...i would just settle for 10 hrs of non-interupted peaceful sleep. yupps. that would be nice. ^_^ if we actually had 36 hrs in a day...school would probably also last longer, so it makes no difference.
oh yes...i was supposed to catch up on my sleep but here i am blogging. shall go off then. zzZZ

When You Believe (From Prince of Egypt)
Many nights we pray
With no proof anyone could hear
And our hearts a hopeful song
We barely understood
Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains long
Before we know we could

There can be miracles
When you believe
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe

In this time of fear
When prayer so often proves in vain
Hope seems like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away
And now I am standing here
My heart's so full I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I'd say

There can be miracles
When you believe (When you believe)
Though hope is frail It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (You can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe
They don't always happen when you ask
And it's easy to give in to your fear
But when you're blinded by your pain
Can't see your way safe through the rain
Thought of a still resilient voice
Says love is very near
There can be miracles (miracles)
When you believe (When you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (You can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe
You will when you believe
You will when you believe
Just believe
You will when you believe

oohh..nice nice song! =))

below is the song that we sang for chapel. yes....haha...i know it is kind of late but i like the song!

Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the Bright and Morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart

Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You're

Chorus: I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours

Who Am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love and watch me rise again
Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me I am Yours
Whom shall I fear Whom shall I fear
'Cause I am Yours
I am Yours

~who am i by Casting Crowns


yes....let's see...today...had math test.
it was disastrous! my ans for the first qn was soo short and i already didnt noe how to do part 2 of the first qn. and obviously that wasnt the only qn. on top of that, the teacher made it worse...she was supposed to show us the math formulas on the visualizer but it turned out that the ppl at the back couldnt see it SOoo she decided to write it on the board. but she didnt write down all the formulas and only at the last few mins when a student asked for a formula then did she flash it. sighss and one of the crucial formula was there.

yupp...onto the next big thing today...had CHINESE TEST!! omgg. it was terrible! i spent at least 15 mins looking at the compo qn before choosing a random one cause i didn't noe how to do any. =( yes...so i just wrote a few pages of rubbish and yupp, hoped for the best. oh...i chose qn 2 btw..the one about a story of a 'lao ren'. then came paper two....not better than the first. haha...there were so many foreign words that i cldnt read so i had to randomly choose some ans to fill in. yess...i noe...how smaarrttt. okay i shall forget abt the chinese paper after adding in the last part. supposedly it is either 40% of our CA or 5% of our promos. either way, it does no good to my chinese marks. ohh....and the teachers actually kept us back for arnd twenty mins counting our papers. i mean who takes 20 mins to count papers?!?!

aye....i shall end now. =)

today was a slowww day. had pe early in the morning...where we went to the gym to exercise. tried out a couple of machines for approx an hour. at the end of it, i was practically dragging myself around. not good as i was soo sleepy but the day was still early and there were still many lessons. =( was in a dazed mood the entire day...couldn't wait for school to end. sorry if i seemed too blur or not saying anything. haha....math lecture was funny. actually it was the end of the lecture that was funny, cause everyone sort of cheered when the bell rang. a sound of relief. heh...feel kind of sorry towards our lecturer, having to hear those 'cheers'. yupps...well..cant help it so =)
good luck to those taking bio spa anyways!

today was quite a short day as we ended at 310...but it felt like an eternity! couldn't wait for lessons to be over. however, still had to stay back for cca so i did sommeeee work in the library before that. went with editha to the planetshakers 'concert' later. we were late by at least twenty minutes but so were a lot of people so it was alright. it was quite fun and entertainging but the music was sooo LOUD! haha...thought i would have gone deaf. it lasted for only one and a half hours and then we went to kfc to have supper. :) they were closing already and i wanted to order the zinger burger but....some person 'stole' my burger so in the end i had cheese fries. oooh..so bloated! yes yes...thank you editha for going with me :)

Reflection

Look at me
You may think you see
Who I really am
But you'll never know me
Every day
It's as if I play a part
Now I see
If I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart

Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

I am now
In a world where I
Have to hide my heart
And what I believe in
But somehow
I will show the world
What's inside my heart
And be loved for who I am

Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection
Someone I don't know?
Must I pretend that I'm
Someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

There's a heart that must be
Free to fly
That burns with a need to know
The reason why

Why must we all conceal
What we think, how we feel?
Must there be a secret me
I'm forced to hide?
I won't pretend that I'm
Someone else for all time
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

Ruiqi, you take the most risks when it comes to Tempting Your Taste Buds

Diets be darned! You're not the type to restrict your options when it comes to food. Maybe you've got a sweet tooth. Perhaps you're a snacker. Or maybe you just enjoy trying out different cuisines and testing your taste buds' limits. Whatever it is that gets your mouth watering, you're not one to count calories or obsess over the extra helping you just took.Whether your weakness is chocolate cake, pepperoni pizza, or cuisines from other cultures, you don't deprive yourself a little indulgence here and there. Nor should you. But you should keep an eye on your health. It's OK to indulge a little every now again, but make sure you're eating your fruits and veggies, as well as your taste buds' favorite treats. Bon appetit!
