went for the NUS competition on Thurs. Lost TERRIBLY, we had 2 points and hwa chong high and hwa chong jc had what? 10-12 ponts!! Turns out we mugged the wrong thing. We (me Charlotte, Juhi and Geri) had to stay back til 9-nish cos Charlotte went MIA at first; so we switched places and did the second shift. Even tho we ALL mugged the wrong thing and didn't score so high,(our highest score is 6 points)we actually want to do it again next year (if we can). All of us and some more from class. We also want to do VJ's competition and we're all excited about more mugging! 3E rocks! And we, (me Charlotte,Geri and Juhi) now love the Tibetion Yak!!! It gave us our 2 ponts!!! And the competition was fun. We travelled to Jurong Regional Library to mug and came up with 2 crazy plans to win. Get (me) om a sugar high so I end up "cackling/giggling" (in Juhi's words, I say I'm just trying not to laugh out loud) and scare our opponents and also use the sugar high to get all the buzzer questions. Too bad it wore off just before we started the competition. (not enought nerds to eat)

Made chocolate fudge for luchbox day. Thank God it turned out ok and everyone liked it. I'm just sorry that: a. I didn't save one for Mrs Choo cause she bought us muchy donuts and strawberry cheesecake even though we didn't win the competition. and B. I didn't bring copies of the recipe to school cause some people were asking for it. But I posted it here some time in January/Febuary.

On another random note, my Malay is getting better. I can understand and create simple sentences. AND, Cikgu is also my relief Bio teacher. Too bad I have to miss Malay AGAIN, for the Compre exam. I'm cramming in Katakana and learning more Japanese vocab (its easier now I know hiragana).

While we were mugging for the competition (which we all did very seriously, I mean we (Juhi, me and Geri) memorised as much as possible if not all the capitals, presidents and prime ministers except Russia and Turkey coz we forgot that was Asia. And I learned all about the literature and let me tell you, ONE Chinese book can have as many as FIVE tittles. And Charlotte took to memorising statistics.... but I digress)

I remembered about the case of Linda Joy(while doing Malaysian Social Science). What I'm about to say may offend some people so this is a disclaimer: This is my personal opinions so don't arrest me or sue me. I think Linda Joy should have been allowed to apostatize. This is because of a few simple violations:
1. People should be allowed to choose their own religion, if they want to convert, let them or they'll still be unbelievers anyway.
2. It would show everyone that Malaysia allows religious freedom. All those cases lately (e.g banning the Bible in malay, argueing over the corpse, conversion of children who don't understand the implications without both parents consent, (I noticed this happens only with couples on bad terms/divorced/getting divorced. So its probably revenge)) is kinda bad for Malaysia. Now, I love Malaysia and the Language and I stay there every holiday so again, these opinions are personal and not meant to offend.

Talking about Malaysia reminds me that my Bro/Adik lelaki already misses Tanjong Puteri. It's really sweet and it gets him to behave. My logic on why he likes it better than Singapore and is willing to give up his beloved to "stay here forever" is because the house is a bungalow, not a small, tiny HDB. I know a maisonette is considered big I feel its small and the there's more kampung spirit in a bungalow estate. I mean we had and still have an open invitation to our neighbours house/pool any time we want. If Mely is reading this, "thanks and I really want to visit soon!" . Here, everyone is friendly but its still not like "old times". I just know didi tan would love 107E. -sigh- -feeling homesick, again-

By the way, the Bloody Mary Episode is haunting me at midnight. It gets annoying cause I rush out of the bathroom half asleep and end up waking up and not being able to sleep again (This goes back to my Insomia Incident in P6/Sec1 when I was ordered (by the doc) to take a nap every afternonn.... which means I didn't do much) Maybe if I study hard enough/read more books (like the Miyuke Miyabe I borrowed, couldn't get Louise Penny this time) I can forget it. Hmm, now thats an idea...

I think I've been random enough for a long time. My blogging muse may not wake up/get inspired like this for a long time. Anyway, Sayonara, Adios Amigos, Selamat Jalan, Bye!
