CNY Visiting
Meet guai Amos, noodle-puking Yanta, cute face Guang Long, and awkward Thaddaeus.

Guang Long, Thaddaeus, Yanta and Amos visited today. They were actually supposed to visit last Friday along with Anne, Rochele and Debbie (Must. Stop. Typing. Beddie.). Wanted to invite some primary school friends (lesser possibility of a rejection on a Friday, no?) but then my mum said my grandpa was alone so we should go over and accompany him, so it got cancelled, and we shifted it today, Monday. In the end we didn't even go at all because Alloy had some leadership day camp on Saturday from 6am-1.30pm. Overachiever already. Kidding... maybe. It was good that we didn't go, though, because he got sick during the weekend :/ But I digress. Today was crazy and passed in a flash.

May I introduce, the awkward troll, Guang Long and the professional photobomber, Yanta.

I'm kind of really happy, today when I helped Ms Huda carry our English books to class, she asked for a favour; if I minded sharing my situational writing composition to the class because apparently she feels that I answered it well. To say I was pleasantly surprised was an understatement. Of course I replied with an affirmative! Gahhhhhhhhhhh I was so happy. I'm really elated because I improved so much!! 34/50 for comprehension (added a mark) and 23/30 for situational!!!!!!!! The compo mark exceeded my expectations/goals WAYYYYY MUCH. There goes my “good English" hahaha BUT I CAN'T HELP IT, I'M SO HAPPY. But this is going to be at the cost of my continuous writing, I think, because I did really sloppily.

That's pretty much the only thing I remember about school today. Other than the fact that we started on chapter 18 for amaths (differentiation of exponentials) and asexual reproduction for bio. I don't really understand putting plants/flowers under the category of asexual reproduction because it seems pretty much sexual to me? Without the sex. This is really awkward. I swear the bio lesson was really awkward, at least, for me. Well. How is sexual reproduction going to be?

For AP, we had Grand Review 4-6(?????) and a test on phrasal verbs (out). I managed to squeeze week 7's vocabulary and half of the next phrasal verbs, so it was quite productive! :) must work more on my grammar... after June. Must must must complete all my exercises in my amath textbook and hopefully the TYS during June, so I can start revision for everything else. If I'm productive enough, maybe I can squeeze in chemistry too. I don't know about history or SS or bio anymore, amaths and olevels are predominantly on my mind at all times. Really. It's always on my mind.

After AP, the boys came to my house! Well, they went to GL's house first to get mandarins hahahaha. Then they came over. Got to wear my new shirt today! It's pretty. Blue peter pan collar, lace-ish designs with a pumpkin sleeve. Oh look at me, I'm so professional at clothes. Hahaha I sound so... girly. It's really surreal.

Guai Amos and awkward cannot take photo Thaddaeus again. With troll Yanta in all his glory, and GL in his sexy pose.

Anyway, we had steamboat (first time for many of them to have real steamboat with friends). I gathered all the broccoli, cauliflower, oyster mushrooms and stalk(? those Japanese looking ones) mushrooms. Sounds so vegetarian. I had some fried stuff too. I'm not sure how to describe them, because I don't think they're a known dish??? At least, not to me hahaha. After we ate, Amos went on a nerd race to finish his math tuition homework, GL and Yanta played foosball (this is not a typo) with Alloy and... I dragged Thaddaeus to help me for our choir songs. I bet he's tired of and annoyed by me hahaha. Along with GL and Joel because I pester them so much during choir. I think I talk more with them, actually. Anyway... I got worse and worse as the evening passed. We took a few breaks, played some card games and slacked. Yanta left at 5.30pm-ish and me and Thaddaeus trudged on @-@ Amos was just drinking the drinks as he slogged on with the maths hahahaha. When even Amos left, we were still practising  Sighpie my ears are really bad! I really frustrated GL and Thaddaeus. They managed to fix me, though. Better than before because I can differentiate between the different parts and (pretty much, I think) get them right. I need to treat them for their birthdays. Order of 16 cupcakes, processing. If I don't pass the re-auditions, I'll feel really bad for letting them down. But again, I really don't want to take out too much time for things other than studying. I know CCA is CO-Curricular, and not POST-Curricular or anything, but in reality, grades are always more important. An L1R5 of 6 without subtracting points for CCA as opposed to an L1R5 of 15 with an A1 for CCA (that is, -2 points, so 13). What do you think? Of course, an L1R5 of 6 with a pass in CCA or A2 and above is favoured, but that's not really possible for me anymore  so I'll pass on that. Not that it's very probable for me to get 6 distinctions, but this is hypothetical., highly hypothetical.

I'm going to try to not talk/scream so much tomorrow, and practise after school. How am I going to do it alone hahaha my ears will pull me into deep shit. I still need to finish my math homework and Chinese compo!!! Piesauce. I'll bet you I have history and SS homework that I conveniently forgot, too.

I hope no one gets offended or anything with this post! I'll be satisfied if someone is amused by me and my friends' antics. Well, not really mine, because I'm a boring person, but my friends'. Photos were all taken from my Instagram hahaha I have bad photo-taking skills.
