brain food is food for the brain. it keeps the brain awake after 12midnight so tt stuff which should hav been inside the brain before 12midnight can go inside the brain and hopefully the stuff wont leak out from ur ears nose eyes whatever.. ie:coffee. instant cappuchino is pretty nice.
after church today, i followed my mum to the market. NOT supermarket as in NTUC/Coldstorage but as in the real wet market. in case u were wondering, no it was not out of my own free will. hah. maybe if i din have the As.. maybe if i wasnt wearing my tommys which have nice scruffed up bottoms which get dragged around the floor..[tt is the reason why they got scruffed up in the first place..they were not originally like that but i like em the way they are now..](& ie floor that is sticky and wet and bloody wif various poultry blood..well actually there really isnt a lot of blood on the floor cos tt would be just totally unhygenic and the hygene cops would be all over the place in a second..or then again maybe not since it is a wet market..)i wouldnt mind following my mum to the market. haha. yah right, who am i trying to kid.. i still wouldn wana go anyway. mmm hahaha.. anyways.. so we were at the vegetable stall and the seller kept trying to sell extra bunches of veggies to my mum and at one point in time he said to me.. in chinese no less and in tt very fast typical promoter kinda tone :" ni xi huan chi se mo cai kuai dian gen ma ma jiang" i replied so quickly and so fluently without sounding weird i totally surprised myself and said this, rather unapologetically, back, "wo bu chi cai de." hahaha. the seller had no reply to that.

The Way You Look Tonight - Frank Sinatra
Some day, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you...
And the way you look tonight.
Yes you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.
With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.
Lovely ... never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it ?
'cause I love you... just the way you look tonight.
Mm, mm, mm, mm,
Just the way you look to-night.
Thing of the day!!!~ The Big Band!

its official. verified by tan vv. my equation is correct. haha. aqueous ammonia can be both NH4OH and NH3(aq)
if NH3(aq) is used instead of NH4OH this is what you'll get.
2NH3(aq)+ H2SO4 -> (NH3)2SO4
without the water. there u go!
Thing of the day!!!~authentic ink catridges which dont get rejected by the printer. -_-`

Ans: It becomes a red bean.
ahahahaha sucks man... carn belive it i managed to forget and be not able to figure out whats the formula of aqueous ammonia. and thus was not able to write out the equation for the neutralization of ammonia with sulphuric acid. lol. i was like.. ammonia NH3 .. ammonium ion NH4+ .. aqueous ammonia..ammonia hydroxide... NH4OH?? nahh looks weird.. lol. like whatever. but tts like secondary sch work for crying out loud!!! arghhh.. come online and look for answer. hahaha
2NH4OH + H2SO4 --> (NH4)2SO4 + 2H2O

of shirts n ties...
as i rush to finish saying whatever i need to say at this point in time.. i realise that im really not going to be able to.. but at least i started writing before midnight n the time of post is already clocked in to 1142pm. (i do realise tt i can cheat. but i wont and anyway i dont have to..haha..)
i have to blog today because today is significant. contrary to what i stated in the previous post..its all about the date today and nothing else simply because thats all that there is to today. it doesnt concern anyone else besides myself and its just something that i need to talk about and i believe its worth recording down because its everything the majority of my life these past 18 years have revolved around.
this day marks the end of my 12 years of formal education. ok so it actually involves a lot more people than just myself but i suppose when you come right down to it.. u really cant share something like that with anybody else. no one else had exactly the same experience as u and even if they did, its significance may be rather different.
..i find myself struggling with my thoughts as i have a mental debate over what i want to say next, and how to bring my point across..do i sound rather self-centered? talking about how i feel that everything only revolves around myself.. i dont mean to say that no one else is of significance to me.. when i talk about school, of course all of my friends are immediately and directly related to my school life, but what im trying to say is that its jus a particularly poignant moment in my life and its important to me that i get it all down in a way that i feel is right..
ok enough of that.. haha.. 12 years in the education system. the system is no where near perfect, rather flawed in fact, but in the end its the system which has led me through these 12 years and brought me to where i am.. u know because of the grades and choosing of schools and all.. the journey has been memorable and im glad to say that at the end of it, it has been wonderful and rewarding. until now at least. but i am sure that i will not disappoint myself. i will survive the As and i will be happy. there has been equal amounts of joy and dispair, fun and not so fun times,satisfaction and frustrations .. at the end of it.. i find that i can hardly remember how bad things were some times but many of the good times have been deeply etched in my mind. its the thing about the mind forgetting painful experiences in an attempt to protect oneself kinda thing..but i believe that i have grown stronger each time and i have grown much as a person. literally and figuratively.
the days in primary school were the most carefree and enjoyable all the time. never really worried about anything.. not even results and jus competely and innocently unconscious of oneself. ignorance was bliss.
secondary school rocked. being a crescentian was fab and being in a girls secondary school is fun =D good clean girly fun and laughter all the time =D haha
..it was also when i realised what a big world it is.
sajc has been my second home these past 2 years. college life is indescrible. you have to experience it for yourself. hahaha...
the thing about sa is.. its so comfortable..theres this very homely feeling about the campus..the cafe..gosh the hours we spend in the cafe!! eating..studying..waiting around..talking..trying to make decisions..stoning.. the odac table has served us well. i think we spend almost as much time in the cafe as in the LTs n classrooms? haha b34. beloved homeroom which we never decorated like our seniors before us. tt evil flight of steps to get there tt is so steep tt ive never gotten used to walking up it without feeling tired by the time i reach the third storey. the cor!!! the first time i walked into it i really thought the place was very interesting.. the empty space tt kinda resembles a courtyard before u walk down the flight of stairs which looks like a walk down some tunnel.. haha talking about tunnels..tt reminds me of the dungeon like science labs!! the dim corridoors of the science labs and using my 'feeling' to determing whether the bio lab is on the right or the chem lab is on the left. haha and the pathetic classroom tt is not fit to be called a classroom in which we had a couple of chem tutorials. the first time i saw a class using tt room i laughed..yes laughed out loud cos they were all squeezed into the room which has black metal rusty grills. little did i know tt we would have to use tt room too. haha..the freezing LT3 and audi which has no tables. lectures which are definitely much preferred to tutorials. LT4 btw is freaking scary at night. and the weird metal gate with the sumatrian tiger on it between phy lab4 n LT4.. its facinating until now it still gets my attention everytime i walk pass it. the gallery all the way at the other side of the school compound across the field. the mosquitoes behind the track. i will not miss the mosquitoes. the odac store which we mess up..then tidy..then mess up..then tidy.. haha..
you know what makes the place homely.. its the people that ur with at these places.. and for tt i wana tell all of u guys how much u all mean to me.. odac ppl, classmates,cip trip ppl,random people who are no longer random.. thanks for all the great memories.. funty people!!! ahh its been a privilege being one of the funty people..i'll ditto what biao said ya.. n hey maybe we could still hav fellowship? 03s61..not the most happening class around but i think we're a great class =D shu ting lor!!!! you guys made going to class bearable for me =) im gonna miss sa so much!!
the funny thing about today is that the whole day, i didnt really realise tt it was the last offical day of school..we were constantly reminded tt it was our last lecture..lecturers giving last words of wisdom and all..but it just didnt fully sink in tt it was THE LAST lecture..n the thing abt assembly n uniform as hh said..din realise those either..haha of course theres tuesday but tt aside..living in oblivion i guess..? haha or maybe denial.. well umm whatever it is.. tts it.. its the end of the ride.. i look back at the years and tears of joy and sadness do fill my eyes. the years have not been wasted.

The week has been rather eventful.. in comparison to the past few weeks/weeks during the past few months which revolved around studying/trying to study/not studying enough and taking exams. and any eventful week is worth talking about right.. so yea.. highlights include:
-celebrating the mid-autum festival in school on wednesday even tho the real thing was on tuesday cos carol wasnt free on tuesday. hahaha. the fact tt we changed the celebration to suit us.. haha think tts kinda cool cos personally i think tts q a cool way of doing things.. like doing things to suit u and not going all around fit the moons timetable. haha after all what matters is the significance of celebrating the thing with the people and the moon cant tell the diff!.. ;D haha. kickass attitude man.woohoo!! hahaha played with the extremely flammable old school paper lanterns with the candles n sparkles too!!! gold sparkly sparkles rock!! haha and of course the whole playing with lanterns thing wouldnt be complete without burning lanterns up.. cj!!! hahaha..walked around the track with our lit lanterns n played wif the sparkles under the moonless sky.. hahaha walked back when the sparkles ran out and the rain nicely waited for u too..haha..it wasnt quite the mooncake party i envisioned with mooncakes n chinese tea aplenty but ahaha tts really okay..it was better!!! s fun!! =D
-prelim results confirmed..sucky >.< but im psst brooding over it. i learn from my mistakes. hah.
-dad's cousin's wedding at seaview, the most popular restaurant at batu pahat. hahaha. there were 3 weddings going on at the same time tt night!!! uuhh the wedding was boring.. din know the couple so yea obviously i really din care much for it.. mm family obligations are a drag sometimes arent they. but anyways..family ties are still important nevertheless so yea. wow. model civics student. haha. i deserve the 2 points i got for being ME Rep for 2 years. hahahaha. went there on friday evening and came back on sat night. i gave up my roti prata to come back tonight..otherwise we would only come back tom morning.. and mmm jus really wanted to come back to sleep in my own room n own loo n everything =P haha and ahh jus realy din feel like wasting more time cos i spent the whole day not studying.. its jus frustrating cos i know i needa study but this is jus giving me such a great reason not to study. ended up sleeping a good portion of the day and i consider it justified cos its to make up for the very many hours of sleep which ive been deprived of. mm anyway point to note..i tink ive said this before but nvm i'll say it again. malaysia has the best roti prata. seriously.. any side stall's prata is better than the best prata in singapore. and im not being biased. so yea pretty big sacrifice here.
i needa study so much tomorrow.. 2 bio papers, 1 maths paper n 1 chemistry paper. whooaaa man.
Thing of the day!!!~picture:
the other pics will be up soon.. but they're all kinda blur or jus a lotta lines everywhere...
