It’s only the first day of this weekend.. and I’m feeling weird.

My 3 buddies have all gone overseas! Jkai has gone to China. Grouser has gone to Taipei. Yix has gone to Dayang. And I’m still in SG. And Jem is nowhere to be found in msn.
Feels weird to have no one to disturb via msn tonight. 3 more nights to endure!

Went school to pay hostel bill. Reached too early. In the end I had so much time to spare before leaving for tuition. Gd thing lian was online to keep me company. Dozed off on the bus to CCK. No matter how much I sleep at night, I’ll still be as tired during the day. Jialat.

Really feeling sick. I know it when the lower jawline starts to pain. -_-

Haha.. I’m not talking about recent matches!

Was reading Weipeng’s blog just now. Love the way he wrote his entries. His descriptions sound so dramatic! Made me feel as though I was at the scene!

Been hearing this for the past 2 years..

My sis is now in Pri 6. PSLE’s around the corner, in less than 3 weeks’ time. She’s the first batch of students with EM1/2 scraped off. Her current class is the 2nd best class, with a mixture of EM1/2 standard students.

Sad to say, her Pri 4 form teacher Mr P became the form teacher of the best class. Mr T became her form teacher instead.

Mr T didn’t give me a good impression. Despite being my sis’s form teacher for 2 years. I’ve never seen him before, but I’ve heard lots.

Last year’s Teachers’ Day, he appointed a student to find out which student gave him what present, so that he can give them Children’s Day present. <-- Have you seen this kind of teacher before? This year wasn't any better. Days before Teachers' Day, he said to his students: Teachers' Day is coming, remember to buy gifts. <-- Have you seen this kind of teacher before? Mr T has a very bad temper. Even though the kids didn't do anything wrong, they get scolded for nothing. You know kids.. Especially Pri 6 students. It's a period where they are going through puberty. They learn from their teachers. After 2 years under Mr T, my sis has got a temper as bad as him. They just got back their prelim results. Guess what? The class with a mixture of EM2/3 students have a better overall result than my sis's class. haha.. Lagi best.. Mr T told his class: "Your prelim results already told you your standard. If you're lousy, you're lousy, beyond cure." Other teachers of other classes are having remedial lessons, with each lesson exceeding the expected time. Mr T? Letting them off half hour, one hour early?! Slacker! How can your students produce better results this way? How can the school assign such a teacher to a good class? How can MOE allow such a teacher to exist?!

Finally had a taste of it. Waited very long for 172. When it came, I was praying for 975 to reach the bus stop when I alight. Along the path where the army camps are, saw the bus behind! Stood all the way to the bus stop @ Fen’s house. Just when 172 was just 2 bus stops away from Fen’s house, someone had to press the bell! I felt like a fool then. I didn’t alight at the previous stops ‘coz it was too dark, kinda unsafe if I were to alight alone. Arghhh! 975 went past. Feeling pissed with myself, I still alighted at the bus stop, hoping to catch the next 975. Sad to say, the next bus that came wasn’t 975, but 172!!!! Fedup. Decided to take cab home. Guess what.. the cabbie don’t know how to go Bt Panjang from there! :S The trip cost me $6 when normally it costs < $5. =(

Now I’m feeling pissed and tired.

In a fast-paced society like ours, how exactly do people who prefer a carefree life or simply slow, survive?

Was walking to LT2A from MLT after a 4-hour stretch of lessons ( was practically a zombie trying to find its way in a continuous stream of students who were heading in the same direction), and I felt lost. Due to the lack of sleep last night, and the skipping of lunch today, I took my own sweet time to find my way ( my friends had already gone to dunno-where ). It was then that I saw a steady stream of students emerging from MLT ( at one end of the academic spint ) and heading towards Canteen A ( at the other end ), everyone was rushing as though time isn’t enough.

I could have chosen to be a lively student today, but tiredness took the better of me. Throughout the short walk, I kept thinking what would happen if I were to fall down ( either due to the slippery floor or over-tiredness ) out of a sudden? The stairs suddenly became an obstacle ( knowing that I slippen down a flight of stairs over a year ago ). What if I fall again ( pun intended ) ?

Felt just like a handicapped person trying to survive this this fast-paced society.

As the 2-hour lecture started, I had difficulty breathing. My chest was feeling tight, and I thought it was burning as I took deep breathes.

And I still felt the same at the end of a stretch of the 6-hour lessons.

And the same that this entry is being posted (10pm).

Thanks Yix! Thanks P!

At least I know that there are ppl who are concerned about me sleeping late. hahaha! Just left Maple =D

Monday is here once again..

Don’t feel like sleeping. Just what am I doing??

Don’t feel like doing anything right now, except to stare at my laptop. Been playing games the whole afternoon, Maple – Audition – Maple – Audition. Stopped only 1.5hours ago.

Almost all CE4 students ( who are in my MSN list ) have similar nicks. All concerning FYP. Seems like every1’s lost / stress over it. I know what my project is all about, my problem now is, the experimentation of the program. It’s now the 7th week of school, I’ve been experimenting the program for 7 weeks, and I’ve not made any progress! It’s no wonder my supervisor is stressing me by giving me dateline! I’m dying from it!! Time is not enough!

I always think how happening my friends’ lives are. Where mine’s just school – home – students’ homes. I don’t like this kind of life. Why can’t I be studying for my degree 11 years ago? Jojo’s batch. 3 years course. No direct honours. Why on earth am I studying CE Strike that off, as the modules I’m studying now are software related. Why on earth did I choose such a hard FYP? It was meant to be a challenge for myself, choosing something I’m interested in but have ZERO knowledge on. Haha.. Regretting my decision! And it’s just the 7th week! 9 more months to go!

Think I’m suffering from stress. Why? ‘Coz I realise I’m starting to prefer living a solitary life. I like to sit alone and think to myself. Jialat. That’s so unlike me.

I’ve been telling myself I want to start a new life. Seems like.. hard. I’m trying hard.. Maybe I’m not trying hard enough.

Finally lived this design. Spent quite sometime inserting those links. =|

Orangy theme, something different from the piano theme you’ve seen from day 1 sunshine is lived 3 years ago. Wah… I’ve been blogging for 3 years+?? Amazing how I can keep this interest alive, knowing that usually my interest in anything lasts for only 3 mins sometimes.

It had been a long way for me here. Started blogging @ blog-city, which the account I still hold for certain topics. Moved on to xanga, livejournal.. you name it, I have it. Come to think of it, my very first blogging account was with dairyland? An account I setup when I was still studying in TP. Haha.. didn’t like the idea of blogging back then, think it has collected layers of dust to date.

It striked upon me one day that I should have my own domain, main intention is to host my portfolio ( which, sad to say, I’ve not done anything about the portfolio YET ). My first step was to create a blog database, which was provided free by the hosting company. That was how sunshine.cloudie.net came about. For three years, being a lousy designer, I stuck with the piano theme, since it look simple and nice. The only minus point about it is, I had to manually convert chinese characters to unicode format before uploading.

Cut the story short. It’s getting pretty boring. =D

Anyway new theme, new layout. Removed some links, added nothing. The sunshine fits just so in-line with the orangy theme. Fits perfectly!
