Happy Chinese New Year~ It's the last day of the CNY holidays, school's beginning again tomorrow. Life can be so torturous at times.
8 February: Had a whole day of DISC profiling workshop. Saw my classmates for the first time, my class was 1011. Managed to find out my behaviour, which, like the one I've done less than a year ago, was I/C. Dominant I. Expected from me. Had some activities in our classes, then I had to rush off to MOELC to take my Japanese competency test to decide if I can take H2 Japanese as one of my H2 subjects. Managed to get through it, it was harder than the 'O' Levels, seriously. I did quite well, then I thought.
9 February: School ended rather early, but due to the bunch of notoriously-draggy people who cannot decide where to go after school, we whiled away a lot of time. Went to J8 for Pizza Hut lunch, then wasted more time waiting for nothing so important. Went back to Khatib, Jialing had to go back to CCHY for band, so seeing that it's already 3+PM and that there's no more time for me to sleep, I went back to take a look at CCS. Nothing was going on, people just practising on their own, the teacher wasn't there, only Yu Lan was there with Weifeng. They looked bored, so I sat down and chatted with them for quite some time. Went off to look for Mdm Goh at the hall, since I haven't seen her ever since the O's. Chatted for a bit, she told me that some Japanese people would be visiting the school for an exchange with the school's Lion Dance troupe. Nothing much went on, so I went down to the staff room. Managed to get access into the staff room, and I was looking for Mrs Catherine Chan, but she wasn't around. But I saw Mdm Sue instead, so I went over for a chat. She told me a lot of important things for JC life, so we spent quite some time there. Ended up going back home at 6.
10 February was a rest day, went home so early to sleep.
11 February: Had my first H2 Japanese lesson. College ended early, so I had to while away time in J8 again. Nothing to do, just wasting time and money having lunch at Manhattan. The serving was generous, but I don't like the oil. Went over for Japanese class, ended at 7:30PM. Lessons were rather relaxed and going slow. The sensei looked rather friendly, that's nice.
12 February: Chinese New Year celebrations at NYJC. The concert was short, and ended at 9AM. We rushed off back to CCHY because we had to attend a prize presentation ceremony. Ended up reaching at 10AM instead of 9:45AM which we were told to reach at. Went up to the Lecture Theatre in our JC uniforms, and sat around to take attendance. Prize presentation went on first, so we got to watch the rest of the concert behind. CCHY Alumni rocks. Joined the Youth Wing and got an alumni tee for $15. >_> Went to have Sakae buffet lunch at J8 (AGAIN), had a filling feast stuffing sushi down my mouth. I love sushi. Lunch ended at around 6PM, ate so much I was so bloated. Xueying came over after her lessons, everyone was ready, some went home, while Duncan, Marvin, Xinglai, Lingshan, Xueying and me went to Orchard because Lingshan and Marvin wanted to shop for New Year clothes. Ended up with nothing for Marvin, but a one piece dress for Lingshan and some necklaces shared by the girls. Took a bounce train back to Khatib and reached around 10PM.
13 February: Chinese New Year Eve! Woke up rather early, prepared for some random things here and there. Had nice lunch at home and sat around. Went over to Grandma's place to play a bit of poker cards before we set out for Hotel Intercontinental for our reunion dinner. Had nice food there, although the service was a bit slow due to the number of customers. Walked over to the Kwan Im Tong Hood Cho Temple to pray like usual. Then walked around Bugis, bought a T-Shirt with hood at the Giordano at Bugis Junction before heading home. Spent my countdown in the shower. I came out at 0001. =.=
14 February: Chinese New Year cum Valentine's Day! What a combination. The Chinese New Year mood was so much stronger that I seriously forgot that it was Valentine's Day. Went to my maternal grandma's house in the afternoon. Had lunch there, and talked for a bit. Headed off to my paternal grandma's house later. They played mahjong, while I slept for a few hours straight before dinner. Had dinner, then poker cards again. Managed to get triple 7, but still ended up losing $10. T_T Spent a lot of time trying to take a nice family photo, but ended up with no satisfying results.
15 February: Second day. Slept in and had lunch at home. Headed off to my granduncle's house. Did practically nothing there because I barely had any topics to talk to the relatives about. Stayed until 8+PM because everyone else was chatting away and it was not nice to leave. Left, then visited my grandma's house for the third day in a row to play poker cards and take more family photos. Finally managed to get a satisfying one. Won a bit of bucks here.
16 February: Last day of holidays. Woke up quite early to prepare to go to Mdm Yeo's house. Met at Sembawang, though two people were late by half an hour. Went over to Mdm Yeo's house, played poker cards, again. Managed to win $20+ at first, but because Dad wasn't here to pick me up early because my brother was playing DotA, I lost those money all back and ended up losing $6.50. =.= Shoot. Went to Bugis to find my Aunt, then went to the temple to pray again. Had McDonald's for lunch/dinner, then went home. Completed my Maths tutorial homework for tomorrow, and relaxing now. Tutorials start tomorrow, life is not going to go easy anymore. *sighs*
Wishing everyone a Happy Chinese New Year, and a prosperous new year ahead with loads of good fortune.
Good Day!
