Mid term break

Mid term break just started. Enjoyed myself thoroughly on sat and sun. It had been a super long time that i could finally take a break. But it was back to reality on Sunday night when i had to start doing my report. Eventually i was so tired i decided to stop and take a break. Was so tired that i fell asleep on bed without switching off the lights. That is how tiring this sem is:(

Woke up early today because i had driving. The instructor thought i had a session this morning before his cos my last lesson was 23/12 last yr which he saw as 23/2. He said it was a long time since i drove. I asked him whether he could go through all the circuit items again and he guided me patiently. Was so glad cos it turned out quite ok and i specially paid more to fix the instructor.

Everything went on fine until i went out to the outside road. I was seriously bad in overtaking cos i could not judge properly the right time to overtake. Then he started to nag alot about us depending too much on the instructors for instructions and how we did not learn everything well from the start and that we were actually going to become qualified drivers soon. Which i could not deny because it seemed so true. Kept forgetting to return back to the left lane after doing right turns.

Eventually went back to the circuit. His comments were that i could drive, but i need to buck up alot. But he said it was inevitable cos i did not drive for a long time. He looked quite worried when i mentioned that i had only 3 more lessons to my actual test. Hai..But i guess i do not have a choice. Cos i cancelled 2 lessons in Feb as i was sick. Time flies so fast.

Oh! I need to mention a secret. But i think its not a secret anymore cos i already revealed it to Kris and everyone else on sat. Kelvin says he shares an emotional bond with his dogs. The first time i heard it i almost fainted cos he seems to be 'abusing' them all the time. Here is a picture which shows the evidence. He claimed that he left the dogs in his room to rest cos he was afraid that they felt lonely. Then he snapped a picture of them while they were sleeping in his room. Hmm..that set me teasing him the whole weekend. Lol..

Fully packed this break. After this weekend is over, hardly have any time to rest. I just realised that my exams end 6 may, special tem is on 11 may to 20 june and NIE intake is on 22 june. I guess the only resting period is in Dec. Haiz this is so sad. Want to drop tuition but afraid cos the economy is so bad now. Feel so sad for Kelvin cos he just lost 2 students. But yet i am afraid that i would not have time to catch up in my work. Really in a dilemma.....Hai. Sometimes i really envy my friends who can go straight home after school and slack and do their work during weekends. This is no doubt the kind of life i would like to lead as well. It just sets me thinking about what i am really doing and whether it is worth it in the end. Hai it really drives me crazy sometimes.

Wanted to get wii during the weekend but soft and hard mod cost $530, way more than i expected. So got to think very carefully. Kris lent me her wii again, so glad that i have a chance to play again! Thanks!

Hai..i am falling asleep again. Haha the previous entry was sweet ain't it? Lol..

Post Valentine's Day Thoughts

Phew, finally got time to do a post on valentine's day. Last week was kind of hetic for me because I'm stucked between assignments, projects deadlines and midterm exam. Yucks, so packed! Anyway, I enjoyed my last valentine's day. It was really fun and the experience is worth it even though it cost a bomb! LOL.. Yup, first, I ordered roses to be delivered to Julia on V day. Well, the delivery man sure make a grand appearance at her door step. He shouted "Julia" at her doorstep, ensuring the whole corridor neighbourhood knows she received flowers. LOL.. High quality service I would say! =). Well, the roses aren't exactly look like what I ordered. Heres a comparison for you all to judge:

What it looks like in the Internet:

What it actually looks like!:

I thought it suppose be the bear holding the flower! Not carrying it on its back. I expect it to be smaller. Anyway, that sounds kind of unreasonable. Heres a zoom in on the roses:

See the specially added "I love you"? It costs extra to add one of those, but its worth it. Well, Julia bought for me a sweet valentine's cake and nike vouchers. Haiz, if I'm not sick, I would have eat more slices of the cakes! Wasted! It was certainly delicious. 

After that, we head towards vivo city, to watch the "Curious case of Benjamin Buttons". I had to pre-order the gold class tickets which caused $149 for 2! Oh my god, its the most expensive movie I ever watched in my whole entire life! I was hesitant about booking it online days before, but the tickets are selling fast, so I had to buy quick. Anway, the staff are very nice and we managed to go in 30mins early to relax in the lounge. 

Heres the lounge:

The package is known as "Paradise of Love at Gold Class". It includes: 

Two Gold Class movie ticket
- 6-inch couple bears, 2-course meal with drink and choice of champagne or wine.

Main Wine Poached Chicken Breast & Spanish Prawn  served with Sauteed Young Vegetables

Dessert Raspberry Mousse

Drink Coffee, Tea or Soft Drink

Choice of two glasses of Veuve Clicquot Rose Champagne or Astrolabe Sauvignon Blanc 2008, Marlborough New Zealand

Here are the 6 inch couple bears. They really look cute!

The seats are great, you get to enjoy the comfort and luxury. The chairs can be adjusted with a push of the button. The ambience are really nice. I can't describe the feeling but it is really worth. The movie is near 3 hours, so it is really worth the money. The food is quite nice, but Julia don't really like it. I love the wine there. We get to taste both white and red wine. It rocks though I feel abit drunk! Lol..

The movie started at 7.30 pm  and ended 10.30 pm. We have to eat the food in the movie which is quite bad. I can't really bear to leave at the end of the show. However, I certainly enjoy the our Valentine's day. Though it is just a simple movie outing, but it is certainly our quality time we enjoy together. Well, good times are short, so we have to rush back home for our homework! If only we have more time that day to spend with each other. Anyway, we can do so tomorrow. Till then, see you all again!

update

Hmm since there has been not much update since my last entry, ill do a short update.

School has been bad. Looking forward to the mid term break. But ill be taking driving lessons 3 times a week and studying for tests so i think there is hardly any break. The week straight after mid term break will be full of tests from mon to fri, not leaving out my free day on thurs because ill be taking my driving test that day.

Haha i wonder how im going to pass my driving test because i haven been driving close to 2 months. Wanna congragulate my best friend jasmine for passing her driving test on her first attempt!! :)

Random entry

Haiz, things have gone so so bad this sem, i can hardly breathe. This is happening even before mid term break!

Secondly i dunno why i fell so sick since last fri up to now and all the medicine has made me so drowsy and i almost slept the whole of last sun and thurs this week. The worse thing is that i have not felt any better and my cough has developed into phlegm. My lungs seem to be breaking down soon from all the coughing and my chest hurts whenever i cough. What is happening to me??

Despite all this, i still went to give tuition. And the more i give, the more guilty and upset i get. Because i think i should be resting more and concentrating more in my school work, since its my last semester and i am clearing more modules. Weekends seem to be totally burnt by all the tuition and now i wonder how on earth i managed to cope for the last 5 semesters. Cannot seem to catch up at all in my core modules. Every module is just so hard and my timetable is so super packed. Feel like giving up tuition 1 by 1, but i dunno who to give up and i feel so reluctant since they are all good students and are taking their O levels at the end of the year. Hai..how??

So many stuff due next week. Only looking forward to Valentine's Day. Kelvin has planned something v sweet. Lol..
