Hooray!!! I bought Brisingr!!! And its the holidays!!! Unfortunately for me, I have not even started on my holiday homework except for the first day of holidays. I must have hit my head or something as I completed 8 weeks worth of work in a day. But then after that, I have not even laid my eyes on my homework since.
Anyway, there is a class chalet coming up and I don't think I shall be going as I am not very bonded with my class except for a few people. Furthermore, I need my father's consent in order to go, and I am not going to waste my time and grovel at his feet to obtain permission to go for the 3 days 2 nights stay. However, I may soon change my mind as it will be the last time 2HM is together.
I have nothing much to say now, and I shall not keep you away from your other duties with my mindless prattling, so I shall stop blogging now and mind my own business.

Results...
I had a horrible dream last night.
I dreamt that I got my results, and my overall percentage was only 65%. Furthermore, I also dreamt that I got into triple science plus elective history which although is listed as my second choice, is no great love of mine as I absolutely loathe history (my true love is geography). It was a horrible nightmare as we were going to get our results today. However, my fears are unfounded as when I got my report book, I realized that I had scored reasonably well as my overall percentage was 71%. Hooray!!! Now, perhaps I would get my wish and study geography next year.
Today, two of my teachers gave as snacks as rewards. Unfortunately for me, the teachers gave lots of chocolates, and due to the fact that I had a sore throat, I was unable to enjoy them (for the present at least. My throat is much better now). As school ended earlier today, I went to Parkway along with Zhi Qi as we both wanted to look for books. We first went to Popular, and as I salivate at the books (mainly Inkdeath and Brisingr. I couldn't buy them as I only had two dollars with me as I wasn't intending to go out), Zhi Qi bought Twilight and New Moon. We tried looking for Eclipse for a while, and when our efforts were proved to be futile, we left our lunch. We went to McDonald's first as I could pay for my food with my EZ-link card, however, when we set foot into it, I remembered that I had a sore throat and was not allowed to eat heaty food. Hence, we left and went to the food court instead. I borrowed two dollars from Zhi Qi and bought a bowl pork porridge. As she was not hungry, Zhi Qi didn't eat anything. I took a long time to eat my porridge (I still burnt my tongue though, despite all my efforts) and when I was done, we went to Borders together. As Zhi Qi wandered around looking for Eclipse, I oogled at the inflated prices of the books and salivate at Brisingr again (strange enough, it was cheaper than compared to Popular by two dollars). I did not bother to salivate at Inkdeath as its price was more expensive than at Popular by $9-$10 (what a rip-off!). After walking around and oogling at the books I could never afford and tinkering with the computer with Zhi Qi, we left and went home. To my surprise, it was only around twelve. I debated against waiting for my younger sister and going home together, but seeing as I had half-an-hour to kill before she is going to be released from school, I went home first.
In all, it was a good day despite the fact that I had not bought any books. But still, the holidays are here and I can buy more books and not to mention, play all day!!!!

My return to blogging
Mwahahaha... After a long break, I have finally start to blog again. I am glad to announce that the exams are long over and that I am free to do whatever I want. Yipee! I have finished with watching Card Captor Sakura, and have started on Akazukin Chacha... I swear, that sister of mine is a bad influence on me. I have changed from a pure and innocent girl (well, not that innocent I suppose) to one that is mad about manga and anime (are they the same thing? I can't tell the difference).
Anyway, I have learnt about the importance of time management. I have to juggle my time between reading manga, watching anime, reading books, blogging, eating, sleeping, etc... It is especially hard to juggle my computer time as I have only one and a half hour to read manga, watch anime, read blogs and of course, update my blog. Unfortunately for me, I take three hours to type a single blog post. Today, I chose the subject combination I wanted for next year. I do hope I get into the one I wanted, and that I will be in the same class with at least one of my good friends next year. I don't want to go through the hassle of getting to know new people. I hate socializing with strangers, it is always so awkward to talk to them, especially if you have nothing to talk about. But with my friends, we can go "Yakkity, yakkity, yak yak yak" about all things under the sun and even have an argument over how do you pronounce the name "Anne" (this started after Wei Qi read Anne of Green Gables and I started to talk to her about the book). Currently, one of my best friend, Vivian, is ill (get well soon Vivian!!!), so I have post-poned the stupid chinese recording thingy till tomorrow. I hate chinese recording. For one thing, my chinese sucks major big time, and I always sound all weird and quavering (due to fright and nervousness I suppose) when I speak into the microphone. Furthermore, sometimes you can hear me breathing in the back ground, and it is really distracting to have someone wheezing into the microphone like they are going to collapse from asthma soon or something.
Yesterday, I went back to school for nothing. The pupils in my class were supposed to go back to school to prepare for Zhong Zheng Bian Bian Bian, and like a stupid fool, I really went. In the end, it turned out that only pupils who are involved are supposed to go back. So, Wei Qi and I decided to go out to Parkway to shop for books before going home. However, it was raining, and we went to thebus stop together, debating whether should we go shopping or not while one of our shoulders were getting wet in the rain (did I neglect to mention that Wei Qi had left her umbrella at home and that we were sharing mine? Well, apparently I did miss it out...). Upon reaching the bus stop, we decided to cancel our shopping trip as it was very inconvenient due to the rain. I lent my umbrella with Wei Qi and then boarded my bus home. When I alighted at the bus stop, I messaged my sister and "ordered" her to fetch me from there with an umbrella. Aaaahhh... The advantage of have a younger sister... You can just boss them around and they will go running aroung to do your bidding. I am not cruel by the way. My elder sister does the same thing to me, like ordering me to fetch the dustbin to her, helping her to throw rubbish, fetch this, fetch that for her, the list could just go on for eternity (well, maybe not that long)...
Anyway, my computer time is almost up, so I will go blogging again (hopefully, that is), in the near or far future...
