Thank you for visiting!
Hehe... see the kitty below? That's one of Mr Fong's kitty!!! super adorable right??? :D Ysd was extra special! Met up with felicia with veron after work to have dinner at Soupspoon at katong 112! First time eating soupspoon!! And i like its some sort of mushroom soup and potato wedges! We ordered some family meal and we're super full after eating it! Was super happy to meet felicia! I think its like years since we had time to actually sit down and have a meal tgt... The last time i met her was after As.. a couple of months ago... to teach her physics for her poly module..
Then I made a spontaneous decision to visit Mr Fong! Since his tuition centre is just a bus stop away at katong shopping centre and i rmb having lessons till 9pm in sec 3/4 so the centre will still be opened! Hahas! Been almost 2 yr since I last saw him and I was looking forward to seeing kitty.. but she's no longer there:( But I was super happy to see Mr Fong..I think he feels the same seeing felicia and I. He's one of the few teachers i can talk with ease with and feel comfortable with.. Was talking to him ysd and yet I feel like we're old friends.. hahas! And we could talk abt anything.. topics ranging abt his uni life, relationship and even abt S'pore politics.. I feel really gd after being able to catch up with both of them. He showed us a lot of his cats pics! They're super cute! He was also telling us all the funny actions of his cats.. like the super protective one who will insists of guarding the door! But I forgot to ask him what's the feature that made him fall in love with cats.. hahas..The centre never changed! I feel like a student going back there! Its like the last tuition centre I went to since I no longer had tuition after sec sch! He still plays the same classical music at the centre and the white board that i used to doodle on is still there! I really miss the times spent there...time really flies huh.. Cant believe we talked till close to 2h? I was shocked when I was it was 10plus on my watch!
Mr Fong was nice enough to send both of us home:) He insisted in sending me to the lift at my block to ensure my safety. Such teachers motivates me to be a teacher that not only teaches well but would go the extra mile to care for their students:) Yet, I know I am not a really gd teacher when faced with certain circumstances that I wished I had faced it better... not to judge too quickly and to build my patience level.... I'll keep learning and improving, thats for sure(:
Firstly, a video by Jason chen!! :D The most recent cover by him is super nice! Ahhh.. *heartmelt* :P
Anyways, ysd celebrated Veron's birthday!! I was super excited ysd! I think i was more excited than veron:P Carried my huge box of cupcakes that I've made for her at eunice's house and ran after the bus 3 times!! The first time, one my way to work from braddel mrt, 2nd time, on my way out of kumon to braddel mrt and the last time on the way home from Thaipan! Was super tired by the time I reached home... Anyways, I hope Veron had a great time and feel special on her bday! Danielle, elaine and i got her a gold pooh oranment with crystals on it, a pooh flower and 5 helium balloons! And her fav dark chocolate cheesecake from obolo! Had a really gd time laughing and catching up with each other at Thaipan! I think we attracted a lot of attention with the helium balloons! There are kids coming up to us asking if we can give them balloons! Hahahas! I think its just awesome that you have this grp of friends that u can just laugh and talk abt anything at anytime with them! Just like ysd, we just went to the poolside at mandarin gardens and talk and laugh abt anything! :D Anyways, woman bought me this hello kitty sweet at candy empire to cheer me up.. thanks woman! As I've said, i will try my best not to emo and worry abt my uni application outcome and just pray and leave it to fate~ Next outing on the 19th of april! Going to watch KC choir concert at the esplanade! So looking forward! I'm also super excited for my other gatherings with other friends like felicia at Soup Spoon! And my SIMUN friends with Joshua and Shang Hsuen to watch Hunger Games:D Havent seen these 2 guys after I missed the recent one last wk...
I'm done with all my uni applications! (: So all thats left is to wait for their reply.... its the same feeling while waiting for my As results... it sucks. Everyday I'm playing worse-case scenarios in my head that I'm not accepted to any course I've applied to and it sort of dampens my mood but I'm also playing best case scenarios that i'm accepted in any faculty or school that allows me to study econs and the thought of posting on my fb status: 'ACCEPTED TO NTU/SMU ECONOMICS or NUS FASS!' just made it all better, so its like mixed feelings of wanting to receive a reply from any of the unis. Need to find more ways to distract myself from this antangonising wait!
Thinking of starting my driving practical lessons next month or in may... excited much!! I hope i can get a driving licence at the end of the yr!
Eversince I've started working, I'm always looking forward to thurs! Cos its like my rest day... tmr is catch-up session with eunice! Baking at her house tooo:D Sat is veron's birthday!!! I hope she'll like the presents and stuff we've planned for her!
Ohh! I wanna learn some photography skills!! I'm thinking of buying a DSLR after I've saved enough! Ohh! Saw this new canon model on the newspapers a few weeks ago! Gonna aim to save enough to buy that! More details here! Shall end off with this nice nice song that had been on the replay for the last few days(:
Something I've came across on one of my friend's blog.. and it speaks quite accurately of my character(:
Your iPersonic Type: The Social Realist
Social Realists like you are popular persons full of energy. You are reliable, well organized and helpful. Traditional values are important to you. Founding a family also plays a central role in your life. Social Realists have a marked social streak. You are always ready to listen to the worries and problems of others and spare no effort when you are asked for help. With empathy and understanding, you can sense what other people need. You are always willing to highly regard the strong points of the other person and to excuse that person’s weaknesses. You are the most sociable of all personality types.Social contacts are very important to you.
Social Realists find it very difficult to cope with conflicts and criticism - harmony is your elixir of life. Acknowledgement and esteem are very important to you. Differentiation on the other hand is not necessarily one of your strong points. At work and in partnerships, you are loyal, committed and always there when needed. You find it easy to make friends due to your open, warm manner and you have a large circle of friends. Social Realists are more conservative types. You have a set system of values and rules. You prefer clear, structured surroundings and work processes; you find too much change und unrest unpleasant. Your strong points are carefulness and reliability and not so much flexibility and spontaneity. Social Realists are open-minded towards anything new only to a limited extent. But, should one be looking for someone to fulfil a task reliably and exactly, you are the right person.
The Social Realist is the most social among all personality types. For you, it is essential to choose a profession where you can deal with as many people as possible. You recharge your batteries with the help of people contact and the personal exchanges needed for your very special talents to unfold. You are the prototype of the caring person in the positive sense, because you love to act on behalf of others and care for them. If you have the impression that there is a way to contribute by improving the quality of their life, it satisfies you more than anything.
For your type, the feeling to be needed, loved, and appreciated is more than vitally necessary. Therefore, working in seclusion is not for you. It is just too much counter to your extroverted nature, and your need for interpersonal interaction.You have the best ideas during dialogues with others, as they stimulate your creativity. Instead of developing abstract aid projects with the help of a drawing board, you prefer to engage yourself on the frontlines with person to person contact. For you, it is important to see the results of your work so you can go home feeling that you (again) made the world a better place - at least a bit.
You are a born team player. You are open and communicative, easily integrating yourself into group hierarchies. For your personality type, harmony is the keyword in your personal, as well as in your professional life. Since conflicts and power struggles seriously stress you making it difficult for you to attend to your tasks, you should put your emphasis on working in a stress free, respectful, and affectionate environment. Working environments continuously affected by tough infighting, and where competitive conflicts are intense represent too great a strain.

It's been quite some time I've last blogged... hmmm.. i needed some time to recover from my results as well as time to do my uni application. For some reason or another, i really miss my JC life.. i keep having flashbacks of my JC life, like having tutorial lessons with mr lim or ms hayati... and having econs lecture as well as doing council stuff like OGL camp! Hahas! Thats one chapt of my life that has ended, but I'm sure the memories of it lasts forever....
Okay, back to reality... I've applied to NTU and SMU alr.. now just left with NUS.. I just thought it would be better to submit my application form after I've visit their open house to get a better idea on the courses they have to offer. Though my grades aren't that fantastic, not too gd, neither is it too bad.. its like you're in this position where there's a chance u can get into the courses and yet its not a certain entry.. gosh.. i hate this kind of uncertainty.. but do I have a choice? I thought through deep and hard.. I really wanna further my studies in economics! All my life I've never wanted anything so badly, yet now I really want the entry into the economics course! So now all I can do is to give my best shot in the non-academic segment in the application and read up on current affairs esp. on the economy to prepare myself for an interview so i can really go all out to impress the interviewers. As the saying goes, where there's a will, there's a way...
On sat, I checked out NTU at the openhouse and I must say I'm very impressed with NTU! It made me want to study at NTU even more! I like their school environment and the way they had planned their event! All the students there are so friendly and willing to help:) It made me feel really welcomed into their uni. One of their econs professor who gave the talk for the school of humanities and social sciences was quite funny! Really really hope I can get into NTU econs! One thing for sure is that if I was given a place in econs, undoubtly, I'll work super super hard cos I know that being able to earn a place there isnt easy and I'm not on the upper tier in terms of results...
During this period time, I'm really grateful to all those who stood by me... it wasnt easy accepting my results and having to accept the fact that I may not be able to get the course I want. I emoed and blank out for 2 days...I think ppl shld have seen my "end of world" expression as described by mr wong after I got my results! Thank god mr wong was there and he explained I still have a chance and convinced me I shld try and never give up. When I needed some time to myself, away from all the joys and laughter I hear, I just sat at the study benches with erika who was in tears and yet I dunno how to make herself or myself feel better, but I just hope my companion helped her... Mr Wong later stopped by to see if I was okay and further ask me to jiayou with a little tap on my shoulder. I talked to ms wu too, both of them made me feel a bit better... Also with the need teachers to submit an appraisal form under NTU non-academic admission.. seeing how willing my 2 teachers are to help me.. really made my day(: I think I'm really fortunate to have such caring teachers(: So whatever will be will be... I will really give my 100plus percent into econs, but I will gladly accept whatever the application results are after appeal (if there's a need) and I accept whatever fate has for me...
Anyways, here's a nice cover by Jason Chen of the song safe and sound orginally sang by Taylor Swift..
