It's been a rather long week. and I'm completely shagged from all the intense studying I've ever done! But, I'm proud of myself, because I've got a newfound discovery - I can study in school because help is just one staircase away, and of course, the principal's office is less than 5 metres away, and she does walk round sometimes. By the way, I'm on the AJ's Potential Top Student list, so yeah, be the best that I can be! But seriously, knowing so much stuff which I would have been totally clueless about a month ago felt really good. I feel really knowledgeable suddenly, and maybe there's hope to do well eventually, never mind the prelims.

CWO with Isyah was a blast! We had to hold pails filled with soapy water, which later I figured, would be the soap for cleaning floors but we cleaned the tables instead. And of course, the horrendous looking school brooms. So off we went, for 40 minutes, tottering, cleaning tables and saying "Excuse me, may I wipe your table?" countless of times. We both were like giggling the whole way, and I tried to tell Isyah that she looks like a maid cleaning the cinders when she swept the floor. Haha..It's all in good humour, babe. All in good humour.

*Yawns* I am feeling rather tired right now, what with so many surprises springing up on me for today alone, what with the assignments, and the Math marks, and meeting some really old mates, and some old crush in school, among others. Man! I have to do more math thingies tomorrow, plus JJC's case study.

That's it, man. I don't have a life currently. But never mind, just as long as I've got supportive people supporting me from behind, I'll be fine. After A levels, there'll be 8 whole long months, 12 if you are unsuccessful to get into university, but I think eight's enough, of holidays! Yippee yay! Must be forward looking, right? Anyways, I think my A levels end on the 26th November, so, I'm gonna do it all the way!

So much determination. I'm gonna make sure it translates into the results. I'm sure I can do it!

I intend to travel after my exams. And I promised someone I'll drag him along. So, yes, start saving up!

Doesn't it intrigue you to just find out more about other cultures? I just don't understand it when some people want to travel to other cosmopolitan cities just so that they can shop. Like, hello, haven't you done enough shopping in Singapore? Surely you don't pay thousands of bucks just to shop, isn't it? Knock some sense, peeps. Knock some sense. And that's not all. I'm sure we're all aware that Singaporeans are relatively many times better off than some of our counterparts, but really, it's only a marginal win, and I'm sure of that. How else could you explain that the other counterparts whom we've long perceived to be 'weaker' are now coming out strong? A marginal win doesn't equate to a big win, mind you. So, I know Singaporeans are a majorly materialistic lot, but maybe, we should start flying some of them materialistic peeps to some country with a low standard of living, and see how they survive there. Maybe they will. Maybe they won't.

Yi Han, Carl, Isyah, Michelle and Victoria called me the Ultimate Kampong Kid! Cos they say I know how to spin coins so professionally, do a scorpion braid, cook and play five stones, which is true. Thank y'all! I love being the Ultimate Kampong Kid!
