I don't know if its weird or what? I had three beef burgers today, (one for dinner and 2 for lunch, yeah, none for breakfast) (yeah, fast food for both lunch AND dinner) (I think its because I was getting sick and bored of chicken and fish burgers all the time >:/...)
I think im starting to get why parents really want to control their children's diets and what they eat and whatnot xP cause when given the choice, they'll go out and self-destruct themselves with fast (and fattening) food (yeah, like me)
thank goodness for an high metabolism rate and an active lifestyle that keeps my weight in check xP
Green Tea- my happy potion. just off-ed 1 bottle yesterday and I couldn't resist grabbing another bottle to keep me happy today as well, lets hope I can get this sugar out of my system soon so that I wont go diabetic at 17 years old *fingers crossed*
at the current rate im downing the drink, looks like the happy potion wont last very long >.<
to get a refill or not to get a refill, that is the question

reflection
well lets see.
the holiday mood that im in is really up and on (even though yesterday has class and today im teaching again and tmr there is project meeting and class (again) and stuff)---the mood of course has been somewhat dampened by Youngest Brother's condition now.
I just went in and see him at least he was able to respond and stuff, still keep the sense of symmetry that I instilled in him when he was young (yeah, lego--must be symmetric on both sides)
he just finished an MRI scan (without being sedated) but I still dun know the results
the wifi here at the McDonalds house in NUH is not bad xD
now to the long trip back by public transport to teach 1st, hopefully I can pick up green tea on the way. (I ran out last night....and suffered badly xP)
dum dum ti dum~

Weekend
*blows out a looooong breath*
well, where do I begin to describe the weekend? what words should I use to describe the weekend?
Crazy,Fun,Dissapointing,Shocking,Exciting,Bittersweet,Cool,Scary,Prayerful,
Overwhelmed.
yeah, that's the overriding emotion the entire weekend... lets start at the beginning:
went to sleep at 2am on Saturday morning and woke up at 7am even though there was the captain ball competition. (yeah, crazy right?)....braved the haze to chiong to church to have choir, then off to the Tournament!
the 1st match that we played was epic, 1st half (8min) and we we're 10-0 up xP then by the end of 2nd half we won the match 16-2
but then in the end we got beaten (badly) by the hosts, and we ended up in 2nd place
Youngest Brother, playing around with friends had an accident: Jumping off a ledge, fell on a friend and landed on the ground on the back of his head-- skull fracture behind the left ear, bleeding from the ear---nasty, I cringe even now thinking of it. the second I saw him lying on the ground unconscious I had to keep repeating to myself:"theLordissovereignhiswillissupremetheLordissovereignhiswillissupreme" over and over again.
that incedent really gives a good refocus to all those that were there, the possibility and reality of death eclipses and value in the temporal, the relationship with others was thrown back to the top of the "must value, cannot take for granted" list.
thankfully Youngest Brother was able to be sent to the hospital and get treated there
the outpouring of concern, love, prayers. and help from the people around us was really overwhelming and it really touched all of us.
reached back home like at midnight (understandably) woke up early the next day for church
and again really touched by the way everyone around us rallied around and offered a ton of support for each and every one of us, the amount of concern was really amazing.
in the end, everything will be up to the Lord.
the Lord is Sovereign, his will is supreme.

Captains Ball Tournement
yeah, that's happening tmr, im like, really excited for it. thankfully the place where we're gonna play captains ball is indoor, so it wont be affected by the haze (right?)
still, the the "higher ups" (a.k.a adults) have prohibited lunch since the tourney starts at 1 pm. (the logic being they don't want us players to have to "chew the cud", so all oily foods are banned and the last I heard was sandwiches [yuck], chicken rice, peanut pancakes, and the rest of the host of yummy Saturday foods are off the table...ssssad)
from what we heard from our "spy" to the other side, apparently the "no-contact","friendly","edifying" side of the tourney is like, totally off or something xP, the "eyewitness" claims to have seen charging with elbows up (dirty play there) from the host side (another thing is that they have good jumpers as well, apparently). lets hope our side can avoid the host team for the first match and we can devise our strategy from there lol.
even so if its that bad, it'll be an honour to die for the church anyhowz, better a worthy cause then none :P
hopefully it wont come down to that, but as the saying goes:" if you are not willing to put yourself on the line for the team, you will be a burden, the team comes first"
and that's the beauty of team sports

"Free" Friday
woots, finally I cleared up all my work yesterday! so now im over and done with grade 11---> and will be slacking until my grade 12 flies in from over the sea xP
1st day of "holiday" (technically days like these are sssssssuper hard to come by since im on an "accelerated" track that leave like, 0 days of holiday--that being said I slack all the time so I guess it even out :P) and the haze it up to PSI 400 xD AWESOME! people say to reamin indoors but im not gonna let that stand in my way between me and my promised land a.k.a the library.
yeah, I know im crazy, but its too mainstream to stay at home when theres this "awesome" haze waiting to be inhaled outside (the stock of a certain people group that I have in mind probably has sunk to a new low as the haze climbs to a new high lol [reference totally intended there])
im going to get my library books, my bubble tea, and the haze aint gonna stop me! (yeah, nothing can dampen my holiday spirit, not even the record high haze)

Teaching
well...just got back from relief teaching so that the original teacher can travers the region and have fun lol
hooo wellz, teaching has always seemed (more or less) fairly easy (and I can still do a decent job okay?), stemming mainly from the fact that my mom was (is) a teacher...it more or less runs in the blood or something
as I have always told myself (and many ppl) Teaching has always been something I don't mind doing (I even enjoy it [a tinny winny bit {sometimes}]) so like if all else fails and I really screw up with all my career choices I would go to NIE and become a teacher
imagine the irony that a "pure" homeschooler ends up as a professional teacher in public school. how fun will that be? xD

Literature
Literature. In. Large. Amounts. Can. Really. Kill
yeah I know I said that before, and im saying it again...
and im dying now, 8 more tests to go. im totally reaping what I sowed by slacking off in Lit lessons >.<
the entire book is arranged chronologically so the screwed up part is that its another history lesson altogether. ARGH
edgar allan poe married his 13-year old cousin and she died 12 years later....saddddddddd
lets get over with this >:(

June
June: fairly different this year around, not as "camp-packed" as previous years (no VBS,Debate Camps) (makes a change there though...) but this year round theres the unpleasant aspect of deadlines and extension of deadlines for grade 11. the idea of doing work in June was really something that I have to grapple with. (I promise to myself not to slack off in my last year of high school)
nonetheless of course there have been more pleasant moments so far (and June isn't over yet!)
YES conference 2013, ICC Speech Tournament, Basic Life Seminar, and other small happy moments here and there.
YES conference--- had fun drawing, presenting in front of a large crowd. thankful to God for clearing up the bad headache that I had on the first day so the 2nd day went well and fun. speaking of which I haven't gotten my prize money yet haha.
Winning the Category Champion for the Category: Marriage and Children, with the rest of the team was really insightful and it help me learn a lot though that.
ICC Speech Tournament--- basically having fun re-presenting what was presented for the YES conference. "Mrs Jas (K)Goh" hahaha...that was funny xD
Basic Life Seminar: 5th year as alumni, great to refresh what was learnt. Also great was meeting up with many friends that I've not seen in like forever.
as mentioned earlier, June isn't over yet! totally looking forward to the Return of Pastor (yeah, really), Inter-Church Captain's Ball Competition, Cola Wars, and other times that I can consume green tea, bubble tea, chocolate, and oreos.
hmm...I should totally get back to my literature homework now...

My life so far:
ahaha...reflection time lol xD
nice, I basically screwed up my music foundations so now my piano is messed up...
music standards? well...it'll be fairly moderate conservative (some might say even close to liberal), with a broad range of music that i'ld play on the piano
Staunchly conservative in most of the other aspects of my life. 'nuff said there (conservative upbringing, church etc)
Homeschooled, so no friends there right? (lol) high school would be finished around this time next year (hopefully)--army after that so yay! (well, maybe not that enthu)
Traits of emphasis right now: Faithfulness and Service. well, mostly faithful serving there...hopefully it'll continue as far as possible.
Interests now: mainly talking/verbal sparring/debate/whatcha-u-call-it. sports.
yep
