it's been a long time since i last posted. saying i didn't have time would be lying, so i'll just say that i couldn't be bothered.
anyways, what has happened in my life since i last posted? well, alot, yet nothing much at all, depending on how you see things. just me, going through life, screwing up along the way.
here's one of my more major screw-ups.
the deadline for the online registration for enrollment into TP was 26th march, 5pm. that day, i woke up at 3.30pm. i hadn't settled some of my forms, not everything was accounted for, and by the time i actually completed them it was almost 10pm (yea, i tend to delay in my work). imagine my surprise when min (i asked her to help me do the registration over the phone, since you needed to print the thing and my printer ran out of "gas".) told me that the deadline had been crossed. i actually thought it was around 28th to 31st.
so i did what i'd normally do in such a situation. i freaked out (well, not freaking out freaking out, just in my head, although there were some controlled physical actions. i threw my beloved k800i into the pillow. might not sound like much, but sometimes when i throw stuff on my bed it gets rebounded and hits the solid cupboard or fall off the bed and hit the even more solid floor.) pushed my brother off the com to send an email there, which, as it turned out, didn't get sent to them because i used the wrong subject title. so i prayed, went to bed, and got up the next morning, something i usually don't do these days. i prefer 10 to 13 hour sleeps.
so anyways, got up, did everything i had to do, left home and went to TP, where i got a queue number at the "one-stop service centre", and there i waited, and waited, and waited somemore. second time i had to do something like that, the first being the time i went for a medical checkup. when my number was finally being called, i went up to the counter, explained to me the situation, and they told me i had to write a letter. a letter! coming all the way to TP just to write a letter. but good thing i didn't have to step out of TP, put it into the post box, have it transported to their HQ, and sent back to TP, the woman said she could just help me pass it to the principal personally. so long story short, the principal let me do it, and here i am, a student of Temasek Polytechnic. praise God!
oh, i also went to mad jack's with rachel, wj, kok and yuan mei. caused wj a serious headache, i think, me and my "unbelievable" sense of direction. reached mad jack's 48 minutes after we had planned to meet. the four of us had fish and chips, and kok didn't eat anything, cause he was sick of the food. so after the meal, kok stayed there, wj sent yuan mei home, and i sent rachel home. got to her aunt's house, and there i met annabel, her sis. haven't seen her in awhile.
so we talked, and she was telling me how she got transferred to YI and about all her weird teachers, and for some reason i had no clue who she was talking about. rachel did, though, which proved that they existed. so, went home watched tv, came online and watched prison break season 2 on my com. really pisses me off. i got through 18 episodes, and on the VERY LAST ONE, the show stopped at 1.41 minute. last episode! argh! so now, here i am, with sharon coming online at 2.20am. so i'm gonna sign off and chat with her now. haven' really did that in a long while...

And through it all, the rise and fall...
