i think i'm too slack for my own good. i have 1 more paper left. chem sl. that is on monday. however i have been slacking off, taking it easy and basically just relaxing the day away. and the ultimate sign of that is this evening. my father and i went to jurong point to catch wanted. at 7. it started later, about 715 due to the trailers and commercials. alright. it ended. my father went to watch the incredible hulk at 920. same cinema, different theatre. i left a little later, for 21 only started at 930. but due to commercials it started later than that. and so this evening, i watched 2 movies, with less than half an hour between the supposed screening time and the end of the previous movie. i have never done that before. i came home and well, i just have this feeling that my mom isn't too pleased with what i did with my father. i really better make it up by studying for chem tomorrow. really really hardcore. i need to do well. i want to do well. i have this feeling that i won't. that's not good, is it?

mid years have just taken a really scary turn. and so i prepare to start the tumble down, despite the fact that i never made much effort to go up.
by that logic, the journey down shouldn't take long. well mid years is some unpredictable thing. and so my descent into the doldrums shall be
ah what the... my brain just died.
ok time to go study for econs and history.
not to mention math.
all my HLs in 2 days. haha that's quite scary i realised.
another thing i realised: i can't run you away.

to quote king theoden from the lord of the rings, the two towers (the movie, not the book). at the scene where the uruk hai are rushing towards the walls of helms deep.
"so it begins"
this is so scary. but the events of today have put things into the right perspective i guess. helping me to bring the focus back to God. may i remember that as i go through this week of mid years. may i continue to keep that engraved in my mind as life goes on.

right studying is screwed up for now. after dinner, got to rush my chem SL so that i'll be ready when i go to school tomorrow. o dear i got to sleep early because of training ><. rawr!
yay training! i hope it doesn't rain. everytime i think about training. i tell myself, ok sam chan, this is the time to really push yourself. but then during training itself i don't see that happening. darn. gotta push harder man! then more fun (:
i like Jupiter, part of The Planets thing composed by Holst.
can't remember his full name as of now. but the middle bit is really nice. seriously. i'm going to bookmark the page. yay!
must resist the temptation to use the com at night...
must resist the temptation to think of you...

right. from the time of my last post to this post that i am typing, i have not done anything really productive in terms of studies. i am so screwed. ok maybe the history thing yesterday helped a bit in helping me get my ideas straight of history. only for lenin and somewhat stalin. it possibly enabled me to get a better idea of the things that i need to cover. i guess it also made me see how much more i have to cover and how little time i have. this is not good. seriously.
yesterday's training. i got owned. alright i admit, every single training i get owned (somewhat). but yesterday, where we only did 2 real runs for both are time trials, i got owned real bad. i guess it's going to be a taste of what's going to happen if i run at track nats later this year. as i've told some of my friends, i'm going to get raped. not a very exciting thought.
however before that comes, i have mid years. seriously, i think about how school is going to start again and my first thought is, hey i get to see my friends again. how cool is that? before it smacks me right in the face with the force of a locomotive at full speed. dude! the first day of school, right after chapel, you have mid years! for every single day of the week until term 3 week 2. ):
hey it's only for 6 days. it's not that bad right? wrong. iop, tok essay, ee all continue after that. o dear my iop is in shambles. maybe that's too drastic. i barely laid the foundation, and it hasn't even set, don't even think about building things on top of it. and i have so little time.
mid years - get owned. track nats - raped. overall - tortured to death. ><
at least some things have changed. i sincerely hope that they are for the better.
i have one week left. i have to make full use of it. i simply must. and that is what i told myself a week ago. this does not bode well. seriously.
firefox makes my blog look ugly. boo!

whoo i feel so happy. like how i told my friend, i feel like an accomplished couch potato! i watched 2 movies yesterday and another 2 today. haha i rented 3 movies on wednesday night.
red eye
the zodiac (the 2005 one)
hairspray
yeah and my sister borrowed a cinderella story and mean girls from her friend. so we watched a cinderella story yesterday evening. i went to watch red eye last night like 11+, so that it would be more exciting. haha quite an awesome thriller. enough to keep one nervous towards the end. haha.
today, came home at 3.35. ate lunch and watched hairspray. whoo now i can appreciate the soundtrack. haha my sister and i shared cost when we bought the soundtrack last year, but i couldn't really appreciate fully because i haven't watched it. haha now i can! and i love it! (: haha then at about 9 i went to watch the zodiac. o man another thriller. but this time scarier. haha really scary. haha
and so i finished watching those 3 movies that i rented in less than 24 hours. gosh.
what a slack day. wake up, read newspaper, go for math tuition, which i haven't gone for 3 consecutive weeks. felt weird. haha i was super tired and lethargic! sian. haha i realised i need to buck up a lot for math. i need to know my stuff right at my fingertips to have time to finish the paper! o dear. haha after tuition, sherilyn, sonya, lisa, ms tan (my tutor) and i went to ms tan's place nearby. like less than a 100m away. haha to play rock band. it's some game like guitar hero. except you have 1 guitar, 1 drum set (not a full one, one to fit the guitar hero kind of thing) , a mike and there's supposed to be a bass but my tutor doesn't have that (yet?). haha quite fun i guess. haha then by the time i got home was about 3.35. and yeah tv, eat, sleep all the way. haha
i'm such a slacker. die. and it's already 12mn. still have yet to shower and i have trianing tomorrow. o dear. i hope i don't die. i hate dying during training. but then again, training is either i die or i get owned. or both. not very comforting. haha
i think it's time i start to draft my studying plan/schedule thing soon. i've never done one before. i wonder how it'll turn out. haha
