Hello blog! Today I'm kind of high. Finally, I'm getting much of the long-deprived sleep back. Today's a Wednesday- used to be the slackest day of the week. But since examinations are approaching, it's now become the most time-wasting day. Lessons were originally scarce in the original time table, together with the free periods in between, people from 17/08 had endured wasting half a day in school in the past. However, with the arrival of exams, some lessons were cancelled, and some were used to recap what was already taught, while the others for test. Today's first period was used for Physics diagnostic test, but the questions used were mcqs from past year's exam, which were already given to us before, making the test kind of redundant. Then, it was a series of free periods until the last, being mathematics tutorial. Exam topics were already completed, leaving for us some revisions to do. Our current phase halted in permutation and combination. However, the math tutorial on monday had already highlighted most of the key concepts, so today was basically used to complete the tutorial for that chapter and nothing else. Civics and contact time were cancelled too. So that's basically a total wastage of 6 to 7 hours- unproductive and energy-draining. Together with my current conditions- sleep deprivation, I decided to skip school today. It was for a cause- to replenish the much needed rest, in order to carry on a journey that is much longer.
All the above was hearsay from my friend- referring to the lesson outline today. Having skipped school, I slept in until 11, woke up, pretty much refreshed. Then, I heard my sister that hse she has received her results for her poly exams and she did well! Two distinctions, according to her, that's even better than As, so it must be really good. Good job, sister! Thank God for seeing her through this, and may you perform more miracles and open the blind eyes of her heart so that she will come to know about you. Amen. So that was really good, and I'm feeling generous, and I decided to treat her beakfast. Breakfast at 1130! It wasn't any big feast but only some noodles bought from the hawker, but it's the thought that counts, yea? considering that I walked all the way to that place to get it for you=) Apart from that, I also went to have a long-needed haircut. My long fringes were irritating and brought much discomfort during the past few days that ?I had to wax them aside every morning before going to school. Now it's shorter, it made me even more refreshed=) I like the new haircut!
The entire afternoon, I washed my own clothes and sun them myself. Yeap, today's also the first day mom's not at home, and also very much the first time I see the obedience in my sister flowing out again. Somehow, it disappeared for a while, but who cares, it's back now=) She actually woke up in the morning to wake me to go school, usually my mom does it=). And she also mopped the floor. Yes, she's becoming so obedient! I was on the other end of the obedience scale though. Maybe not exactly the end, but was no where near hers. Was kind of lazy. I spent my entire day multi-tasking between game and work. It's an improvement- at least I started studying! Go on, Tiong! May our heavenly Father grant me the strength and obedience to resist any temptation, not only from work, but also from spending time with Him. Amen.
Dad bought me dinner near evening. Thanks dad, and I continued doing the physics test that were taken by my classmate in the morning. I can do most, but had many careless grave mistakes. For instance, I took 240 in all my caculations instead of the given 120! But I got stuck in a few questions too. Must consult tutor tomorrow during double period.
As night came, many nice dramas lined up until now. I like the baby in the 9pm show (very cute), then HongKong drama at 10 was fine, the Taiwan show at 1230 rocks! I like it. Very nice. And 1 of the song just got Joel to download for me. Will upload in a different post later too. Enjoy!
In between, I also browsed through the daysprings e-cards, and they have new designs. The baby one was super cute, and some of the songs are nice. So I decided to send it to some of my closest friends to check on them and wish them good luck. Will send out more in time to come- share the blessings=). Tomorrow's gonna be a long day- jiayou everyone!
