funny. i managed to write with such fluency i amazed myself.
today we had 2 writing assignments - english letter writing and chinese composition. i actually had lots of stuff to write for
BOTH - pretty astonishing (for me that is)
i usually get writers block and start chatting time away. and hand up some paper with strings of words crappily strung together.
and im hoping to pass both! umm if i dont.. then i will start wrting and reading more. if i actually felt confident today, and still dont do well then i would most certainly fail my o levels. enough said. its scary.
and ive got this silly plan in my head. i will, for every subject, pick out stuff to study. that means i will not study everything covered in my secondary school life. and that could mean i am not going to pass. lol okay........ i will choose wisely. like matrixes (a.math). its so silly, right? theres only 1 question from the whole chapter.
and as for chInese. oh my. i dont know where to start. theres so many words. im more worried for my oral exams actually, ive never been eloquent when i need to (the stress gets to me, i start to stutter a lil and get mental blocks)
what if i fail??! omg! i would sign myself up for english courses. i will. coz its embarrassing to not have a language youre strong at. people have chinese. i dont. english. mines not up to standard. and i dont know any other language. i dont want to render myself useless
okay. flag selling this saturday. at centrepoint! lucky us. i will bring my own coins to put inside the tin and then go shopping. sincerity have to go to compass point (LOL.). not like the crowds raving there or what; i think no one would donate anything and they would end up having to use their own money
and its really dumb to judge how much effort youve put in for the flag selling day by the amount youve collected. theres just too many people with tins around, how many times do you expect someone to donate? you know it, you see those kiddies in school uniforms with a cylindical thing in their hands and u take a detour - and better are those with little booklets! some people are so terrifyed of them they actually run. as in run. run!
i know it coz i ran away from this lady once. she was soooo scary coz i couldnt shake her off. and i dont want to be mean to her either. i walked away and she followed me for quite some distance repeating her sentence (i dont know what shes saying though). it got pretty embarrassing. but as a student, how many 5 dollars can you donate? not a lot for the majority.
personally, i would prefer to donate directly to the needy. those asking for donations in forms of booklets where u donate and get a ticket thing are paid. i dont like that idea. maybe the $5 = $2 for the charity, $2 goes back to the 'sponsors' & $1 for the agency who recruits the students.
this worlds too overwhelming for me.
cant take the heat. im retreating back to choco lane. cya worlddd
