Heiyo!
( adapted from "360 Ways to Attract Students' Attention" by Mdm Tazneen)Lolx. Just ignore the above. Its a 3A & 3B joke. Hahax.
Haix. I realised just yesterday that I havent updated in a long long time. Hahax. Sorriex Sorriex.
Alot of things happened this few weeks lahx. So hectic. First was the studying of exams. Then, exams came and gone. I think i didnt do that well for End-of years. Oh no no no. Lets re-phrase it. I dont even think I did okay for it AT ALL. And this examination is like DAMN IMPORTANT lahx. >.< So I can picture myself in a combined science class nest year liaox. Haiyax. Anyways its gone liaox, I might as well just forget it lahx. Maybe I should conecntrate more on what is and will be happening.
As I was saying. Studying for exams.. then it came and went. So NOW. Im STILL studying for exams. BUT I CANNOT screw this one up cause its the O Levels. -_-" If I fail my Os chinese which is coming in 2 weeks, exactly 12 Days, 7 hours and 7 mintes from now, Im so gona kill myself cause I WILL NOT picture myself taking O Level 3 times. What a waste of time. >.<
Anyways. I think I've said enough about exams. Farand posted this 'Singaporean Identity' thingy long ago on his blog, but I only just recently read it. I thought it was something quite interesting and Ill just post it again here for those who havent seen it. You can visit his blog at
