hahhah let me tell u bout the tuition today! by far, this afternoon was the BESTBESTBESTBESTBEST MOST PRODUCTIVE session ever!!!!! i have NEVER ever in my life seen her more focused than today!!! hahhah -miracle of the whiteboard- she looooooooves the whiteboard so much! and she wanted to write EVERYTHING EVERYTHING EVERYTHING on it! hahahahaaahah!!! and she can actually solve almost all the qns without much of my help when she is focused! hehe thus next week, im bringing my brown whiteboard marker:) instead of the usual boring blueblackredpurple. hahahhah ooooooo and HAHAHAHHAHHAH i found out something!!!
caroline: -writing on the board- "i love lee..." -looks at me-
xintian: -thought she was going to write my name- *secretly happy!*
caroline: -continues writing- "Tu Yen" "Uncle Lee" -grins at me-
xintian: huh? who's that?
caroline: a boy! i always call him Uncle Lee
xintian: OOOOOOOOO *raises eyebrows* u like him??????
caroline: -nods- but i dunno if he likes me!!
xintian: HAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHA!!! -ruffles her hair- is he handsome??
caroline: -nods- guess when i talk to him?
xintian: he's ur classmate?
caroline: no! he's in 4.3 i'm in 4.2! we're in the same chinese class -BIG BEEEEEEEG GRIN-
hahahhahaha oh my!!! so cute!!!! how come i dont remember myself having any crushes when i was 10...............
ohh!! and i learnt something today! there was a question that asked how many fifths are there in 3 wholes. so i drew three circles on the board but i had a VERY DIFFICULT time trying to split it into five equal parts. HAH i embarrassingly drew four parts w/o realizing..!! hee and she told me to just write a BIG huo(fire) in the circle and tadah!!!
i feel so much more spirited now! and i can focus at task better these days. like previously i was very dazed when i gave tuition and after a while i get bored n tired myself. but hell no today! i was 100% alert!! it must be the breathing space i have now that exams are over! and im not concerned bout the results coz what's done's done! hmmm im looking forward to tmr morning and afternoon! =D time to meet friends i haven't seen in a long while and im gonna be spending exclusive time with God! hahhah yay kz. oh i still have a gp essay to complete tonight HAHAHAHAHAH shan't feel grouchy bout it:)
oh and yesterday's farewell assembly wasn't as bad as i thought it'd be! i thoroughly enjoyed watching Friends in the netball court with all my friends! hahahahha! it was so lovely with a crowd of people gathered together laughing n enjoying the sitcom that was projected onto the wall with the speakers blaring n feasting on KFC. SHEESH i wonder why i never ever bothered to watch Friends my entire life! it's so funnieeeeeeee!!!!! argh. regret!!!!!!
hees everyone have a nice day till later~

bad girl
ive been in a freakin bad bad mood since last night. so bad that i couldnt stand myself. last night i went to bed pretty late coz i was too angry to fall asleep. and this morning i woke up to my alarm STILL angry and pissed off i threw the clock frm my bed to my desk, thankfully it's not spoilt. HAH i dunno why. so i went back to bed and slept over my bad mood till afternoon. i feel so much better. but ah im damn bad. i just spoilt my entire day's plans. wanted to go for the touch rug game in the morning, and then go down to World Vision. but neither happened. just slept.
anw hahah believe it or not i had STRAIGHT HAIR for a day!!!!! coz i went to mich's aunt's hair salon and had my hair trimmed. the only good thing that came out if it was that i got to get the experience of having a straight crop on my head for half a day. other than that i was not-happy bout it. coz i dont feel any different nor lighter and my pony tail's still AS BUSHY. quite irritated with myself coz i shld've just requested for a change of hairdresser or simply decline the haircut. COZ the lady who was assigned to cut my hair is obviously new to the line and she had near zero confidence in handling my unique hair. she kept whispering to mich's aunt in cantonese and made me quite annoyed. AND she just took out the iron n wanted to straighten my hair WITHOUT EVEN ASKING ME!!!!!! huh? but i just went ahead with it since it's no harm trying. anw i think the iron damaged my hair a little. yeah so im going for another trim soon...ARGH.
and on my way home i bumped into a FREAKING RUDE worker carrying a plank into the shopping mall doing some setting up for the next day. i was deep in thought and didn't hear him when he asked me to look out and almost bumped into him. he SHOUTED at me like i was some useless crap. WTH!!!!!!!!!! i was so angry i practically stormed all the way home. and then i came home to squabbling parents. squabbling over RUBBISH THINGS. WTH?!?! and it made me even more pissed off after a tiring day, a disappointing haircut, and a bloody rude worker.
on a lighter note i enjoyed Guns n Talks and My Sassy Girl at mich's house yesterday =D hee damn funny shows. and i accompanied mich to sajc to return her friend's file:) so i got to see my sajc friends=D
kz goin off to school very soon for the farewell assembly and tonight im gonna feast on vcds again mwahahahaha deprived xintian. till later~

somethings i learnt from my population geog:
the cost of fertilizing US golf courses for a year is enough to feed an entire african nation for a year!!
AND it costs 7 million to film a stunt in a movie, enough to educated 77 MILLION africans on AIDS awareness!!
a pretty ridiculous world we live in isnt it?!?
i like studying pop geog:) coz it's relatively simpler compared to other human geog topics, or geog topics for the matter. it seems like the world's trying to find its balance somewhere. or maybe it's like water finding the lowest point.
i was having an internal debate between studying economics geog and urban geography. ive decided to go for urban geog since it seems to give a more opitimistic feeling. HAHA we shall see...
im very much into pastel art now! especially after a three hour session yesterday experimenting with colours!! i was TREMENDOUSLY INSPIRED by an artbook i dug out from the shelf yesterday afternn. the paintings and demos in there looked soooooo beautiful yet simple and easy-looking enough. HAH. so i decided to try them out!! wellll turned out most of my watercolour tubes have run out of paint so too bad i had to make do with the ones u do with crayons:) and it was SO MUCH FUN!!!! though i must admit trying to get the desired effects wasn't easy! but in the process i churned out quite a number of interesting colour combinations that i had never thought of using before! and it's pretty amazing how EVERY colour combination reflects a different mood! heeheeeeeee here comes artist lee!! mwahha looks like ive got a new found hobby!! perhaps i'll like to get a scrapbook, a new set of watercolour paint and a new set of crayons:) my current set of crayons have lived with me since i was 7! i'd particularly like to try out landscape drawings:)

care n share
muzzle to muzzle: baby snow foxes playing
they're such adorable creatures :) its pretty amazing the way they change their fur colour according to the seasons. for camouflage purposes i guess:)
u know i love looking at photographs of animals captured during intimate moments, like a lioness nuzzling her cub. i find it heartwarming seeing animals, usually thought of as uncivilized scavangers, expressing love and care, n it's so human-like!
i still keep a photocopied version of a newspaper article ms ong shared with our class last yr from her journal. it was a picture of a puppy accepting a piece of bread offered by a monkey. and my teacher wrote that this favourite shot of hers touched her because it shows that even animals from different species know how to give and to receive. and the concentration in the monkey's eyes as the puppy took bread from its fingers shows the sophistication of both creatures:)it was my favourite picture last year too!

i feel like pangsai now. i suspect my yin n yang are not balanced. hhahha thought of that in the shower earlier:) shall go with my mom to the chinese practitioner on her next trip? heeheeheee sobbbbbsssssssss............ ve been screwing up everything i do recently. the maths paper was a classic case. everything this morning was perfect, cept my left brain. ahahh shant talk abt the paper shall tell u what a perfect exam setting my class was lucky to experience=) or at least ME! hahahha the room was airconditioned with super bright sunlight streaming in from the windows and from the ceiling light! woOOT!~ AND a train toottooted by=D hehehehe
ahh sigh pangsai tian just slept her entire afternoon away. craziness i keep having crazy dreams these days. ooh but not my entire afternn went wasted=) i dug out this month's issue of the national geographic(my all time fav mag!) and dived into the world of the KEEPERS OF THE WORLD - the indigenous people living in the mountains of santa marta or smthg like that. cant remember. hehe wished i lived there. it was my childhood dream to live in a hut! hmm n i was pondering if it were better if i were born in that community instead of mine. it would be so fun to experience that kindaf life=) simple n good with great historical heritage. heh but i live in the city and i get the opportunity to learn abt several various kinds of communities=) i dont think i'd be thinking it fun if i were actually living there haahha so i've decided my city's better, and i can dream while i stare at the pictures=)

wooooot!~ hahah dad's packing his schoolbag now mwahhaahh! he's going for an option trading seminar with mom tmr n tmr n tmr n tmr. that's FOUR lonely afternoons mugging at home:( nvm no mama=no distraction =) hahahaha
ive never crammed so many formulas in a night before! this is craziness. i realized i really have short term memory. really SHORT. things like differentiation that i thought i was pro at barely a month ago, and now i cant progress after copying the question on my paper!!!!!!!! i think my left brain's underdeveloped!
jeffrey michael's songs remind me SO much of jiehui! haahahha their styles are very similar! hees i can draw similarities between them! they dont really know how to read music scores, they have very good ears, and they can just sit at the piano and start playing beautiful music they compose on the spot. hahhah coz i realized his pieces dont really have structures and i like it that way coz it's just flows n flows n flows. and it's very therapeutic=)
i discovered one pretty sad thing about myself. when i listen to music like his, all i picture in my mind's piano keys. and i try to guess which note he's playing or which chord yadayada. his songs are supposed to evoke lovely mental pictures! in fact many are. but they just dont come to me! instead, it's those stupid piano keys!!!
alrite time to go back to maths! slping early tonight=) it's a must for maths papers! =)

today was such a nice nice day!! let me list a few things that made my day today =D
1. i FINALLY completed a rockwall climb!! hahahh i'm glad i decided to go for PE today! so at least i've tried the rockwall before saying byebye to our cosy little campus! and it was an achievement to me coz i thought i wouldn't be able to do it and when i was almost up there i got stuck for SO LONG!! i thought of giving up but thanks to those down there encouraging me n trying to help me find ways to get up! =) hee im so glad i didn't say "i'm coming down" before i reached the top. i stayed up there for a while and oh my the view frm up there's really beautiful!! below's the second field with trees and more trees, together with the clear afternoon sky! i wish i had a camera up there. n of coz thanks mich for being so patient being my belayer :)
2. MOST importantly, i talked to globe today!!!!!!! hahah i was such a nut! freakin out and almost chickening out! haha owell i've never experienced this kinda thing before! i was hesitating so much and my heart was thumping like MAD!! hee glad i got an excuse n asked him to join in AFUA's busking festivities! hahah he surprisingly agreed to consider it with his band and he was really quite nice about it! and didn't shoot me a what-the-hell look :) hahah thankful for that! but i stupidly forgot to leave my name! how unprofessional of me. hee and thanks to all my frens who encouraged me!!!!
hmm i was really quite disappointed with my maths results though i expected it to turn out bad..but owell..after all those effort. and seeing mrs kong's disappointment..ARGH!!!!!!!! if not for that globe thing i think i'd be quite sad today! nevertheless mrs kong was really SO SO encouraging as she's always been..she went thru my mistakes one by one with me and ARGH i really feel like a lump of shit now. like she did that with me the last test and the last test and the last test too! i'm so thankful for a maths teacher like her but sob. ok time for dinner and then chionging for tmr's econs test. not going to let xiao ngin down too. which i probably will but owell try to savage whatever i can! =)
and may i wonder how heartless and selfish and inhumane can they get?!?!!?!? HOW CAN THEY hold children hostage with the full intention of killing them all?!?! and not to mention a whole SCHOOL of children!!!! and what about the teachers in there too? and the little children's parents living in terror tonight?? FREAK!!!! WTH!!!!!!!!!!!! i hope they'll be condemned for the rest of their lives and if they EVER kill ONE kid, may they burn in hell forever! arghargh what's wrong with their brains?!?!?!?!? and have they no conscience!??!!? argh!!! lord bless the children..
oh and we watched this rather heartwrenching video during geog today bout the 3 gorges dam of china. 13 cities, hundreds of towns and thousands of villages are going to be submerged and i feel so so so sad for all of those! some of the villages date back hundreds of years and imagine the culture and heritage that'll be lost! sigh i'd be really heartbroken if i were them. i can't bear to let everything that my ancestors have built and everything about that village that everyone is so proud of go down with the water. sigh could really feel their sadness and reluctance. and those houses that the govt promised to resettle them in..they look so LIFELESS and run down and i swear that the villages look 239847million times better! and the garden that they promised seem nonexistant. and even if they were, it's a sad garden. argh so wasted!! their lives are really going to change in the next five years, unfortunately for the worse. =(
owell but i guess saving the millions of lives that would otherwise be lost is important too. lose some gain some.. just that it's simply such a big big waste. i hope the dam will stay strong forever and protect the lives of the Chinese:)
