Prelims are just a couple of weeks away, i think, and i'm the least bit proud to say that i still haven't gotten down so serious revision. O level English oral's this Tuesday, and like I said the topics that have been coming up are scaring me. "Is music essential in life?" Maybe i could converse about that if i had time to prepare, but just like that in front of two intimidating teachers i've never seen before? Not that easy. I can't screw up my oral, because that would in turn mean i screw up my english, and then my whole *ing O levels. Not something i had in mind. Guess i'll just have to do my best (so cliche) and hope i don't screw it up. I need the 1 for english. NEED.
Yesterday i had to go back to school to return my NCC uniforms. Finally after 4 very long and stressful years in the NCC, i can relax. Maybe you think I was that super enthu kind of person so I could get my post and what not, i guess you thought wrong. I never ever thought of joining NCC when i was in Sec 1. I remember being screwed out of track because during the trails some ass ran into my lane and cut me off, soccer was only offered as a second CCA, and i had pretty much zero interest in any other CCA. When the time came to fill up the CCA forms, i went to put NCC (Land) as my first choice for a UGO. And i was called up for the trials, and got selected. It was miserable, but i just did what i had to do. The only reason i kept coming back every Saturday was the friends i made. I dreaded training. But in August that year i won that award. I really don't know why, i didn't even work hard for it. Maybe that's why it seems meaningless up there on my shelf.
Anyways, wanted to play street soccer after that, but the Sec 2's had their streaming talk so the court had cars all around it. Plus CF was there and Ng had something against Jude Tan who was also there so we decided to go to Tanglin CC to play. It was quite fun until it started to rain, then had to run in the rain to the busstop, then from my busstop all the way back home. Was freezing my ass off when i got home. Was supposed to go play soccer in IJ later that afternoon but Glen called saying there'd only be 3 of us there, so he cancelled the thing altogether. So i was left at home with nothing to do, so i slept.
Today went to church as usual, breakfast at the market with rea and leslie as usual, cat class as usual, boring as usual. Came home then went for lunch. I ate pretty quick then had to rush off to boon lay mrt station to meet the church people for soccer at NTU. The team played quite well, we drew 2 - 2, and considering we got whooped 7 - 1 last time we played this team. But i really sucked today. I don't know if it's the boots or what (i was wearing my old pair of tight and worn out boots), but i played like shit. Ah anyways, not many people would know how i feel about soccer so i won't elaborate. Finished up watching The Recruit on DVD after dinner, it's a pretty good movie. Actually its really good. Well, i enjoyed it thoroughly. The mind games and twists and turns and surprises. Pretty cool.
Well, i guess tomorrow Amy Chua's going to be at her craziest again going through the countless papers we have, and i haven't done them. Guess i'll be just copying down everything and hoping she doesn't notice me. It's been like this for quite a while already. Been caught maybe twice? But nothing serious has happened. I'm pushing my luck, it might just end soon. I can't play anymore of these stupid shit ass games.
Let's start working. Now.
