Time the Foe.

It's been a seriously long time since I've written anything. Well theres loads of stuff to talk about. Holly had her birthday last week on saturday, The O level results were released, I went to Harry's with Dad, Had cathecism, Mass then dinner, Picked up Mikey from school, Went for a wedding, ZhongSan etc. Its loads. I'll just talk about some of them.

Holly's birthday was quite nice. A barbeque at east coast park sitting on rocks looking into the ocean. It was a small thing (3 of Holly's friends, Trisha, Eugene and I). Trisha, Eugene and I made our way there after cathecism by cab. When we reached everyone ad already pretty much had their fill so we had ours and sat at the rocks. Its amazing how geography can be applied here because the rocks should have been barriers (or whatcha call it) to prevent the beach from eroding. But it had connected to the beach already. I'm not sure if it really is deposition of sediments or intentional human interference. ANYWAY, Nichollete left before we came so only 2 of holy's friends were there, one of which was Danial's sister. We sat there and talked. I almost died and gave Trisha a heart attack, slipping on a slippery rock. =P We walked home and that was it to the day.

O level results were released. Our school standards dropped. The mean MSG now is 19 points. Thats crazy. Then again it used to be 17 or something which isnt that good either. Imagine the whole of SPS getting that and going to Poly or something. Its not something to be proud of. So I'm trying to discipline myself to get at LEAST 8 points. Anything more than 12 and Im off to Poly or CJC. Best scorer in school was 8 by the way. Other things that happened in school include LOM games day, house meeting, Chem, Bio and Physics practicals and all the other boring school stuff. A maths retest results are back tommorow along with our circular measure test results and standard deviation test results.

This weekend was funny. Cat class was funny. We played "honey if you love me"! I was coincidentaly paired up to say the line to Catherine. Even better. Joel was also "coincidentally paired up" with... well you know who =D. Then we had an organised debate where I was representing the side who will defend the faith from the "others" who will ask questions. Trust me. When your up against teenagers like Jerome and Steph, it takes a heck lot of faith and guts to be able to answer and rebutt their questions, leading to a tight draw. Then went for mass and dinner with Cat and went home.

At ZhongSan the next day, I met up with my non-biologically-related sisters Yunting and Yunying who greeted me with "Heloooooo"s! We put up the CNY decorations before starting the meeting proper. We nominated the different office positions. HuiWen was VP, YunTing was secretary, BiWen was Treasurer and Kenneth was "committee member" AKA extra guy who votes and has a say. Then we had Macdonalds lunch. Apparently, the candidates for world domination let you sample their food (and give you money for it!) Its a bit like you are the food critic kind of thing. I would like to do that! Free food (though its crap), you get paid, and you get to say its crap as well! After ZhongSan we went to Kit koufoo's wedding. Say apple there and she is one TALL 10 year old! Seriously! Not just tall, tall and lean with a long-ish face! Its quite touching to see my uncle get re-married. Its cool.

Nowadays it seems that everything is moving really fast. I dont mean the buses no those are slower than ever. I meant time. It was only 4 years ago, we were young impressionable 13 year olds ready to take over the world and looking foward to our "sweet 16". Now that it's finally here, it seems almost surreal that we are 16 years old yet it feels so normal. It's going to be so hard, fighting time. Running faster and faster to catch up with him and the world. The seconds become increasingly precious and it seems like we have no time to rest. There are so many things I want to do yet the minutes flow away like water from an open tap. There is just so little time to be with who we love, to be with who we want to be with. I really want to treasure that time with them.
