Frankly speaking i think i fare pretty well in terms of patience. But put anyone else in my shoes, there is a very high possibility that the person will grow extremely violent, bad tempered, rebellious, highly-strung and whatnot that can be mirrored or derived as a result of. I think as of now it is still within my ability to tolerate and to control my emotions and outbursts. Given God's guidance i may even be able to endure infinitely. But this isn't any justification to continue without selfchecks from time to time.

But then again, it's worse to be absentminded, thinking you're floating along in life when you're actually crashing, isn't it? Y'know it's funny to say, but i think the less turbulent your life is, the more time you have to linger on upsetting things that you should actually just cast away, and you become emo or however you want to phrase it. An empty mind is also the devil's workshop afterall. It's saddening to say but i feel like the past 17 years of my life has been pretty wasted, maybe except for the few times when i could make some other person's life better. KTVBS was one of the memorable things in my life so far, and i always think back at it with a smile. But that was how many years ago? 6? 7? I've lost track of the time. I miss following up with those people. I wonder whether they still remember me. It'll be heartening if they do, but given 6, 7 years, what are the odds? There's been so much inertia in my life these few years, so much distractions, and studies to attend to. I really hope i can get my life back on track, to actually do something meaningful, else i'll just be rotting away, non?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;"&gt;I guess life's so beautiful, only if you explore its depths.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35220974-7189387932906295049?l=joannaopal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/feeds/7189387932906295049/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35220974&amp;postID=7189387932906295049' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/7189387932906295049'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/7189387932906295049'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/2010/10/lifes-road-and-i-wanna-keep-going.html' title=''/><author><name>+opal+</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11773797111397116584</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EGMBy_FVXN8/TM0eg3o4VhI/AAAAAAAAAPo/_T9OqyTfCVI/s72-c/life.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35220974.post-8786659010224055273</id><published>2010-09-30T05:56:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-30T06:05:07.086-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EGMBy_FVXN8/TKSJn4pJeDI/AAAAAAAAAPY/LxxuHDBZJcY/s1600/nicole+fox.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5522690361375946802" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EGMBy_FVXN8/TKSJn4pJeDI/AAAAAAAAAPY/LxxuHDBZJcY/s320/nicole+fox.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Just checked for the first call-out for antm cycle 15 ep3, and as expected it's ann ward again :O She really reminds me of cycle 13's winner - Nicole Fox (above :D).

Esp like their pop and lock &amp;amp; one part where i thought i saw a guy slide a short distance on one hand with the other 3 limbs in the air! (but naomi says she didn't see it so maybe i was hallucinating :O) I think alyson stoner and adam sevani are very cute together and really talented! That includes their crazy dance in the streets ;) Looking forward to watching alyson in CampRock2! Apparently she's a singer+dancer+actress+model at just 17 (our age ohmygosh!), and i know she's pretty good for the 1st 3 :O And there were so many young talented dancers! They look bout 10-12 years old? But they dance so well (not just for their age but generally), and one of the girls can do alot of bboy moves! :O I think she has abs! *envious* I wonder whether the slurpee thing is possible._.

Somehow along the way i caught a flu which developed into a cough and yadayada. And knowing me i don't really take very good care of myself hahaha. So that explains why i've not fully recovered as yet, but at least the running nose/blocked nose is gone and i've found my voice!:) Thankyou jah for the medicine! Sorry i almost depleted your supply! Do you prefer upfront payment or replacement of goods? LOL. :/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then there was sc selection camp from friday cca time till sunday noon, of which i slept 4hrs on the first night and 2hrs on the second. But the time was well spent, and it also opened my eyes to how vigourous the selection process has to be and how the same candidate can be viewed very differently by 2 different evaluators. All in all i believe most candidates did show potential (to various degrees) but as to whether that makes them deserve to get into council, or to rephrase it, whether council is suitable for them or whether they are better as house captains etc, i can't say for sure. It's really tough to make decisions concerning those on grey areas. What makes one deserve it more than the other when they excel in different areas and show weakness in separate areas too? I guess the discussion subsequently evolved into who can change if he/she joins council. And honestly, if we had to go through such a selection process, how many of us would have passed out of 5? I really don't know, since the facilitators then might have differed from us. I just hope that whoever is chosen, they will change the school through council, and that many years later, we'll be proud alumni of nus high and the council.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the same night directly after camp was the closing ceremony of SYDC of which dance was the opening perf. Saw minh chau, zhixin, and chris! My gosh the people there seem so wild and crazy unlike what you would have assumed from observing their debates :O It was pretty shocking initially when people just ran up on stage during song choice with the disco lights etc :O Sorry, i'm a super shy person who doesn't really like the limelight in such cases heh :/ Only went up cause i made a bet with chris and zhixin that i'll go up and dance if they do and they really did! D: Then only when i got back to hostel that i suddenly realised sports day was on monday and TDay was on tuesday and not the reverse way around, which meant that my house tee would still be in the laundry! Imagine how panicky i got cause it would be dumb to get dqed for not wearing your house tee (esp for 2 events), non? So i started calling up people, before i found out that you could loan the laundry key from the hostel office! Like, since when?! Was so elated that i flew up the hostel stairs and nearly tripped when a huge fat black bettle suddenly came into view! Super scary can! Tricia shares my sentiments hahaha! Then dosed myself with medicine and went to bed earlier, around 11sth cause i didn't want to die the next day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Okay so i survived sports day, many thanks to weining for helping me to the restroom when i nearly died after my first event; xinyuan for staying with me throughout the whole thing when i merlioned out my breakfast; hanisah for borrowing wendelyn's waterbottle, and wendelyn for kindly lending me your waterbottle(: On a sidenote, ohmygosh mag yay(: I don't think you'll see this but if you do, i hope you have recovered too (and found your voice)! :D and i recognised alot of sc selection camp participants that day and ohboy they sure run damn fast! Especially yufong and dominic :O&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aaand finally today was TDay celebrations! The end of my hectic week (i think.) Thanks Janice Soo for buying the chrysanthemum drink! Really appreciate your thoughtfulness(:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Okay time to get to work, i shouldn't sleep early today since i have stuff to do.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1'

or maybe the line has gotten so blurred up such that the value of it is rendered obsolete. well i probably wont stay upset for long given my scattered brain, and maybe with every little bit i let go off, i feel relieved. perhaps, do it more often and you wont see me again. aww isn't that awesome?(: don't worry i have alr considered your feelings, cause when that happens you probably won't even realise to get hurt. you're welcome(: oh and what's more awesome is that i dont even need to physically disappear :O&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**pause ohmygosh its getting too serious sounding liao, i'm sorry but thats what you get when you try to censor out alot of things to protect people's feelings and yourself**&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;okayokay back to even more serious stuff, i've got work to do. tatas&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35220974-6135779700423231500?l=joannaopal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/feeds/6135779700423231500/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35220974&amp;postID=6135779700423231500' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/6135779700423231500'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/6135779700423231500'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/2010/07/haha-awfully-long-time-no-post-not.html' title=''/><author><name>+opal+</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11773797111397116584</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35220974.post-8156349647446568422</id><published>2010-07-01T08:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-07-01T08:23:57.451-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>so many things, so little words can describe. i'm beat, goodnight.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35220974-8156349647446568422?l=joannaopal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/feeds/8156349647446568422/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35220974&amp;postID=8156349647446568422' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/8156349647446568422'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/8156349647446568422'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/2010/07/so-many-things-so-little-words-can.html' title=''/><author><name>+opal+</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11773797111397116584</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35220974.post-1715803203041847239</id><published>2010-06-22T06:28:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-22T07:03:49.929-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Janice is so lame.

I don't know bout the style of them but i found the topics of the messages very applicable to everyone and a rather effective wakeup call for many. Tho on a side note i guess i'm still as distracted as ever and i don't feel more matured or anything like my age. When i was 12 i envisioned my 17 self as much more focused on my career goals in life etc, but i guess nothing has changed. bleh. anyways lazy to do any proper posts bout camp :/ But i should probably post these as they are common areas in life we all err in and as a result often develop conflict for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;"Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;"Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;"Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;"Beareth al things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;- 1 Corinthians 13: 4-7&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Went to dso today, met my prof's ntu student, who taught me some basics in c language using a micro-controller. wasn't as bad as i thought it would be, but i must say programming is anything but my forte. idk how many times i yawned while the ntu student was talking, hope he didn't notice :X He passed me a textbook, i guess i shall try to read as much as i can.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dance tmr. i hope i feel better tmr; stupid me forgot my jacket and umbrella today, dso felt much colder for dunno what reason then it rained thereafter-.-&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35220974-1715803203041847239?l=joannaopal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/feeds/1715803203041847239/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35220974&amp;postID=1715803203041847239' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/1715803203041847239'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/1715803203041847239'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/2010/06/have-been-back-from-church-camp-for.html' title=''/><author><name>+opal+</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11773797111397116584</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35220974.post-5927797431509058802</id><published>2010-06-11T04:26:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-11T04:45:37.995-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EGMBy_FVXN8/TBIhzklItzI/AAAAAAAAAMI/3JyuKcj0NG8/s1600/rainbow_smoke_3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 290px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 216px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5481480866339796786" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EGMBy_FVXN8/TBIhzklItzI/AAAAAAAAAMI/3JyuKcj0NG8/s400/rainbow_smoke_3.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Wow looks like i pretty much haven't done anything academic during the hols :O and next week i'll be in church camp, awana! hoping to buy birthday prez for 2 people tmr and have lunch with joanne(:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;anws i was happily reading the newspaper just now when an unknown caller rang me up on my hp, then the first thing the girl said (in chinese) was: Guess who am i?;D x 3times or so. then she sounded alot like weining but had a more sha jiao voice, so i thought it was joanne trying to give me a harder time in guessing who she was. Then the girl was like, aiyooo sthsth can't rmb your old friend ah? then i felt so bad cause i thought it was really someone i knew, so i just guessed weining, but wrong guess luh. Then my mind was still drifting and she rambled on in chinese, so fast until i didn't really catch what she was saying. Then suddenly, after quite a while, it occurred to me that she probably got the wrong number, tho i can't outright say that in case she really phoned for me. So i had to ask her who she wanted to talk to, and ya luh, wrong number, duh. But that experience was freakyyy. CHINESE OKAY. RAPID CHINESE. time to revisit chinese LOL.

Yet why can't i break out of the habit? i should go find a wall to bang my head against. ohwait they are round about me-.- Okay i really must make a change. And not wait for tmr to effect it. Like right now i shall go take a slight break and really work hard on this, i dont wanna repeat the same thing again, it's frustrating.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok that aside, the experience was pretty enriching, it's my first time afterall:) 100+ people, nice friendly people;) Tho jah kept falling asleep during the first message :O Ok the first half of the first message. He was on night duty so just nice by the time he got back to school my dad just reached. And tonight he has duty again._. goodluck! don't KO! LOL. Oh there was this presenter who was a darn confident speaker. seriously, the guy spoke like he was in drama club or from gavel. Super funny also xD And my group's the only group w/o ppt slides. Must say presentation has never been my niche, even though i seem calm on the outside, i'm actually very nervous, and when i'm nervous i can't think straight. Fortunately this round was okay, thanks faith, valerie and the rest for going back up with me to cram last min info ;D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;List of stuff to do:&lt;br /&gt;- TDay must go check when's the mtg with SM, it's getting late&lt;br /&gt;- Mentor+mentees outing!

How was it? Look above :D And no, we have more than 1 guy in dance, fortunately(: Y'know idky, the guys are always the centre of attention (duh literally in photo), people clap for whatever they do._. i wonder whether they actually do find that unnerving o_O That beside, we stayed up till 2.30am dancing(: And the track at night/dawn is awesomely tranquil, i love it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Funny story today. When they mentioned kbox, i assumed it was the clementi branch. So i took the botannia shuttlebus out to clementi at 5.30pm, so i'll reach there at 5.40pm with 5mins to spare. Somehow something spurred me to reread janice's sms. And freak, it said orchard._.! So i rushed to the mrt not really knowing where i'm supposed to head for. Fortunately met a woman who gave me really clear instructions, so i made it to orchard mrt before 6.20pm. Then the heren was so hard to find can! So many glass buildings-.- Then i walk and walk and walk before i realised i was heading the wrong direction. Then i had to walk all the way back, past the mrt station, and finally reached kbox at 6.35, 6.40? blah. But it was worth the walking(:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;tmr's my only free day, besides friday, don't anyone suddenly pop anything out and drag me outta the house, else i'll get flabbergasted.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;tatas&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div

She just kept repeating/yelling the same sentence over and over again like it would even solve the problem, and even ticked me off for talking to my dad bout non-academic stuff. She's treating me like some emotionless ragdoll or something, as if i weren't alr upset over my math. Fine she can express her disappointment once or twice, i don't even need her encouragement because she obviously doesn't know how to talk bout anything else besides grades, but going on and on for weeks, and 2 years for physics and still counting? Overrated reaction don't you think? Just for you to know, i don't motivate myself to do better just because someone keeps harping on some useless point or compares me to another person to try to make me hate myself to death if i don't do way better the next round; i motivate myself to do better because i compare myself with myself and want to improve instead of stagnating. You obviously don't really know me, so it's pointless saying that you know me better than myself, it's just another fallacy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;Right. i'm tired. shall go file all my stuff and do some SS work before sleeping. tatas&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35220974-4458501876206065369?l=joannaopal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/feeds/4458501876206065369/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35220974&amp;postID=4458501876206065369' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/4458501876206065369'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/4458501876206065369'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/2009/11/todays-dance-was-quite-hard-to-catch-d.html' title=''/><author><name>+opal+</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11773797111397116584</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35220974.post-3227955977130541749</id><published>2009-11-12T06:42:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-12T06:58:31.870-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EGMBy_FVXN8/SvwfDJLRy1I/AAAAAAAAAIg/IJ2QmwGBYlE/s1600-h/lamma+frog.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 284px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403227791801043794" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EGMBy_FVXN8/SvwfDJLRy1I/AAAAAAAAAIg/IJ2QmwGBYlE/s320/lamma+frog.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Janice's drawing of llamafrog! aww cute^^&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;I'm addicted to Allison Iraheta's rendition of Alone (from Heart).

type='text'></title><content type='html'>I just realised, there's no such thing as acsi PRIMARY, only acs primary. correct me if i'm wrong. so wth has that parent-teacher been saying! gosh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She bugged ryan for 20mins over the phone lolol. Quote: I will pay you for teaching my son, just tell me what you think is reasonable. LOL.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, she smsed me this, after being unable to get it out of ryan, "Wd u pls sms me yr friend who go to nus uni..." Note that's not my english(: Cause douglas, who is currently 16, graduated from nushs several months back and was admitted straight into nus. I replied her saying that douglas does not wish to disclose his personal contact details. I didn't ask douglas tho, but i'm sure he'll be thankful should he find out her &lt;em&gt;personality&lt;/em&gt;. Guess what was her response? "Thank u very much!" Please don't tell me she somehow construed it as, "Rest assure i'll help you get his contact." Even if so, too bad, i've decided not to further entertain her peculiar requests/questions. Seriously, you do not need to contact EVERY student, esp the more gifted one, in nushs, to determine whether you should allow your son to try for this school. Don't you think it's more constructive approaching the relevant subject teachers or even, the principal? Apparently, you say, nonono, students would be better. But do you realise, you are going overboard? First you talk nonstop for 45mins and try to drag me away from my duty. Next you try to get all the contact numbers, which i didnt give you. Then you call me to give specific psle help like topics/titles of good books/authors/websites, even to lend you my smo books. If you were someone i know, i'll do it willingly (anyways all the church people who have entered my school/are entering soon, their parents don't even rely on me that much). But you're just a stranger and i was just trying to be nice. Note: I'm not obliged to continue being so. Actually the most annoying thing is that you just don't understand the meaning of "no" and keep trying to push your luck. Well you're getting on my last nerve, so please do not treat me as your call-girl.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And yeah congrats to your son for getting into 2nd round. Pity i'll be attending lessons during that time so i hope you will not come and disturb me. thank you.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35220974-1727304168091568113?l=joannaopal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/feeds/1727304168091568113/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35220974&amp;postID=1727304168091568113' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/1727304168091568113'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/1727304168091568113'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/2009/10/i-just-realised-theres-no-such-thing-as.html' title=''/><author><name>+opal+</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11773797111397116584</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35220974.post-6846778067456827498</id><published>2009-09-25T20:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-26T05:36:05.333-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;Went to usher for SPSO today(:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;My cheekbone hurts cause i had to smile with my eyes and mouth for more than 45 MINUTES D: there was this "crazy parent" who stalked me and jee hyun for that period of time BUT JEE HYUN PANGSEH ME!!! and she wrote down everything we said word for word, so scary. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;Basically her contents of speech:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;1. Her son won 1st for a swimming event representing Singapore&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;2. Her son got 1st for acsi mad test and topped asci science in his level&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;3. Her son read all the sec3, 4 bio+chem+phy TBs in 3-4hours flat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;4. Her son studies just 1 day before his p5 tests/exams (actually thats what most people do, even in high school...)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;5. My psle score, did i get A* for everything, whether i think HCL is neccessary (actually it was compulsory for me, so idk, but i know it doesnt help chinese)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;6. Why i chose nus high over RGS, whether i prefered math or science (aiyo...)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;7. What textbooks/guidebooks/practice papers did i use for psle (THAT WAS &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;FOUR&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; YEARS AGO.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;8. What science and math competitions there are in primary school (when i was p5, the only competitions i ever went for/had training for was smo and NSW [which shd not be counted])&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;9. Ask whether jee hyun/i could offer any tuition (no thanks! unless it's piano haha). So i suggested ryan and my mum (to give her business mah). And she was really kiasu, asked for my address, home number hp number and ryan's. But cause it's personal info i had to call him first, but before i did that she was "pleading" that i just give it to her... To cut a long funny story short, i finally managed to get to ryan (HAHA sorry ryan! but don't worry, even if you teach, you'll be teaching her SON, not HER :D)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;10. Whether people who come to this school will become nerds (No duh-.- unless you're alr a nerd before you come here LOL)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;11. How to be a prefect in nus high&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;She talked nonstop, i was in such pain, the security guard tried to help me by shooing her away and standing in between us, but the parent kept waving her hands over the security guard, wanting to continue asking me stuff. Actually now come to think of it, the whole episode is hilarious HAHA. But if her son really has those achievements, and wants to be a scientist, he should come to nus high!(: He seems quite nice, not as crazy as... haha x)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;tired, shall go do my overdue hcl papers D:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35220974-6846778067456827498?l=joannaopal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/feeds/6846778067456827498/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35220974&amp;postID=6846778067456827498' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/6846778067456827498'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/6846778067456827498'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/2009/09/went-to-usher-for-spso-today-my.html' title=''/><author><name>+opal+</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11773797111397116584</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35220974.post-2275229889743211780</id><published>2009-09-10T23:21:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-10T23:26:10.721-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;y'know sometimes, when all seems to be falling apart, and you reach the crossroads; you face a temptation so great to take the easy way and give up. but do y'know, it's then that you can make the greatest comeback, if you give it a try.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35220974-2275229889743211780?l=joannaopal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/feeds/2275229889743211780/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35220974&amp;postID=2275229889743211780' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/2275229889743211780'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35220974/posts/default/2275229889743211780'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://joannaopal.blogspot.com/2009/09/yknow-sometimes-when-all-seems-to-be.html' title=''/><author><name>+opal+</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11773797111397116584</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35220974.post-7905496579861193197</id><published>2009-09-09T05:34:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-09T05:39:16.869-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;Moved house to Botannia(: the environment here is way better than in Toh Guan, with nicer views. tho my room is technically smaller if you minus the toilet (but my old room didnt have an attached toilet so there) but with the planter space outside and the glass doors, it looks bigger._.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;Okay while i didnt have internet access for 2+ days, there were certain stuff i wanted to blog bout, but now, the prior anger has dissipated so forget it haha.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"&gt;Ohyeah, today rewatched The Italian Job.

Reached there just in time before the train left, thankgoodness. On the train, there was this couple standing right in front of me. They kissed every 30sec to 1min, eww. And i had to endure it for dunno how many stations. Kissing in public is a more minor thing, kissing with absurd frequency is disturbing, kissing NOISILY is terrible with the absurd frequency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Found the place, waited there with wenli, daniel and michael for like half an hour?! -.-" Then donovan told us to just take bus5 to his house (which we have no idea where except the road name =.=) So we figured it'll be either near Female Changi Prison, or Male Changi Prison. Then we smsed him and he said he'll just wait there haha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally reached his house. the condo's darn nice. It was surrounded by many other condos... The bbq was like *welcome to the black parade* Then michael somemore asked, "Is it cooked?" ERR.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then jerlin and i had to rush home early. Sadly the nearest busstop was a distance away. So we chiong all the way (poor jerlin was in slippers :X) By the time we hopped onto the bus we were zombiiieeee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gosh i feel sleepy.

After lesson they asked the teacher some questions on whether salvation was freewill. To which my mother later gave an analogy of banana skin and the 'chosen' group which slips on it.
