Alright no matter how many times I have to sit through unsuccessful exams and tests, I’m still where I am today…makes me wonder if I really did anything at all =x however despite the countless times I’ve been through them, I always feel as if it’s the end of the world if I fail the next one…it’s like God has been on my side all these years, answering my prayers and helping me through stuff I haphazardly studied. Makes me wonder when he is going to stop. Anyway today was one of those days which I expectedly screwed up my oral…chi-na oral to be exact…haha…*laughs at self* I was nervous until I could be nervous no more so I just sat there with icy cold fingers and conversed with a friend whose cure for anxiety was to talk =x the only difference this situation has compared to my secondary school days is the that there was about 5 people who are conversant in Chinese =x and fact that they were all before me didn’t help at all! Haha...so I counted down the time to my death sentence…one by one the others left…finally I was my turn…well I was worried that I didn’t feel worried. Well that didn’t last too long. The moment I laid eyes one the script I began to suffer a mental block! Oh do you pronounce all those familiar looking foreign squiggles? Ok time is ticking…I have 5 mins exactly…quick think hard! In no time at all I found myself greeting 2 very incompatible chi-na examiners…oh boi! How I wish I could fast forward time…alright so I carried on as if I’ve only started learning how to speak this year and pretended not to hear the examiner’s silent but noticeable snickering. Haiz…after a horrible reading of I don’t know what I was reading at all, the conversation started…question was easy…what do you think of strict parents…something like that…a lot to say right? Yeah..but not when u have to say all of it in Chinese =( I mean how the hell do you say “quit the job” or “strict” or “over protective” or “knowing when to discipline” or “the age of the child also plays apart” so can you inmagine…in order to avoid running into difficulty, I skipped lots of good points and got prompted like 3-4 times…*dies* and the worst of all, all the other simple stuff I said all came out in broken Chinese…thank God they let me off fast…if not I don’t know what other gibberish I’ll be boring them with =x wells at least I got a few shots in during e bb game! Yeah! For once I feel useful XD *beams* alrite guess I’ve bored you to death reading all these haha! So I better go! =)

Today didn’t feel like a school day at all everyone who were up watching soccer last night went for breakfast before coming to school how slack! Anyway there was this empty humming in the silent background of sleepy classrooms that makes you more than sian. Haiz…okay so I crashed my class normal Chinese lesson today…thought that it would be more fun since there isn’t so much to be taught to the normal standard Chinese peeps. Unfortunately it was dead boring even worst than my bu zhu ban! Boi am I thankful! Oh yeah! The best thing that happened to me today was that after I’d gleefully bought my roast chicken rice, I walked to the outdoor canteen and down those few angelic steps and poof! The plate went flying out of my hand in slow mo! Haha I saw that coming! Right! Malu-ed like shit, I dashed into the toilet pretended to wash my hand when I was actually laughing hysterically at myself and then got dragged out by hui ling who kept laughing at me! Hmph! Okay yea it was funny XD so I went to buy another plate of chicken rice, dodge glances as I headed back to my seat and gobbled everything down in 5mins then still starving, I went buy a bowl of gou tiao tang haha! I’m such a pig! So I stayed back after guitar prac today sang that stupid oh so hard to sing happy ending song Rawr! I hate my stage fright nerves! Could have done better but oh wells!

alright...someone has been buggin me to update my blog for v long haha so here's this entire post for her to read XD haha alright wads so specticular abt this post u ask...well i've nv found anything more precise being wriiten abt me as this! so here goes...if u're interested *beams* Virgo is the sixth Sign of the Zodiac, to be exact, and that's the way Virgos like it: exacting. Those born under this Sign are forever the butt of jokes for being so picky and critical (and they can be), but their 'attention to detail' is for a reason: to help others. Virgos, more than any other Sign, were born to serve, and it gives them great joy. They are also tailor-made for the job, since they are industrious, methodical and efficient. The sense of duty borne by these folks is considerable, and it ensures that they will always work for the greater good.
Virgo is represented in modern Astrology by the Virgin, although this association should not be taken literally. Rather, Virgos tend to take on some of the qualities of a Virgin, things like modesty and humanity. Some might consider them repressed, although Virgins would argue that it's a noble quality, as opposed to a negative one. Most of all, Virgos enjoy indulging their practical and logical side and poring over their projects to the nth degree. To say these folks are good at fact-finding almost understates the case, since Virgos revel in their exacting (some would argue pedantic) behavior and are a whiz with minutiae. Virgins are an asset in the workplace as they can be counted on to get things right the first time, every time--and no detail will be overlooked. They are also balanced and fair in their assessments in keeping with the Mutable Quality assigned to this Sign.
Virgo is ruled by the Planet Mercury, and as portrayed in ancient Roman mythology, Mercury wasn't one to sit still for long. This swift-footed god was a bundle of energy, both physically and mentally, and that pretty much sums up the Virgin's makeup. A Virgo's brain is in overdrive most of the time, which is why these folks get so much done. Those born under this Sign are also able communicators and use their mental acuity to maximum advantage. All of this brainpower can make Virgins prone to skepticism, and can even lead to the kind of overthink, which surely leads to overkill. Thankfully, though, Virgos are also a studious lot and can temper their worst impulses with a bit of careful analysis. Virgos enjoy studying a situation in great detail, whether it's a work project or a friendship. Virgins are truly interested in understanding things. The bane of many Virgos is the perfectionism, which can get in the way of their usual clear thinking. 'I'm not a perfectionist; I'm discriminating!' a Virgo would say, happy in the knowledge that their taste is unparalleled. Along those lines, Virgos are also neat and clean, save for the occasional sloppy Virgin (they do exist). Virgins are also reliable and practical and oh-so-useful to have around.
The Element associated with Virgo is Earth, and in keeping with that, most Virgos are grounded, salt-of-the-earth types. The flash and dash can go to others, since Virgos would much rather be humble and easy-going. That said, Virgins do enjoy material possessions and are (dare we say?) picky about what they bring into their lives. Some might even go as far as calling them self-centered, but it's really more of a desire to surround themselves with what's right--for them. This knack for discernment also serves Virgins well in business, where their decisions are usually dead-on. Those born under this Sign are eminently sensible and use their critical eye well. While Virgins can be worrywarts, they do their best to temper these impulses. However, if this nervousness goes unchecked, it can lead to hypochondria, that ugly skeleton in the Virgo's closet. For that reason, Virgos are extremely health conscious, to the point of being storehouses of information on diet and hygiene. Many Virgos even choose a health or medical career so they won't miss a beat
Working out is elemental for Virgins, if only so they know intellectually that they're helping themselves physically. See, the benefits of exercise are far more important to Virgos than the process itself. That's why Virgos are likely to time themselves on their runs and get in those 300 sit-ups every day. When it comes to the game of love, Virgos are able to loosen up somewhat and are devoted to their lovers, even if they can be a bit jealous. Since Virgo rules the intestines, worried Virgins need to be wary of bowel upsets. Soothing relief often comes in the way of earth tones, which is why Virgins like to be surrounded by shades of tan and a warm yellow.
The great strength of the Virgo-born is in their practicality, sharp mind and attention to detail. When merged with their willingness to serve, Virgos become essential helpmates. They can be picky--so what?
