April 28 I feel foolish but happy!It's just one of days~ where you make a fool of yourself in several little ways but dont feel happy about it.
XD
Today is quite cold. boo~ i'm back to wearing thermal >.<
Melissa decided not to have breakfast at Oakview today so it was me, Ifsha and Angus (+ other bruneian boys). After breakfast, went to Ifsha and Angus's registration room (next to ours) to wait for my tutor. Funny, there's no one else. We chatted with Robert, Ifsha and Angus's tutor until I realised that it's Tuesday today where i'm supposed to be at the Language lab with MY tutor since there's no collect. Laughed it off and Robert gave me my tutor's registration book to bring with me.
Off I went~ with the registration book in my hand hoping I'm not late, ready to burst into the room saying foolishly 'I forgot it's Tuesday!'
However.. when i entered the language building..
no one was there yet and the door to the room was locked. A few minutes later, David came so he waited with me. Silence..
10 minutes or so passed.. no one.
:\
started to get worried. Usually all my tutor group would be here already. Told David and we both came out and went down.
The door to the building was locked! i dont know how or when cos David and I definitely entered but there was a crowd of people waiting by the door. XD
David unlocked it and everyone came in. So funny when some of them gave us smirks and asked what were we doing
I got a praise from my tutor for bringing the registration book *smiles like a cat*
I seriously need to start reading books again. Several instances today where I said weird things and forgotten words.
I was going to say politely, 'Do you mind if I leave?' but i said 'Can I leave?!' in a very happy(loud) tone. XP
I wonder when my next injection is supposed to be. Btw, i'm freaking sick of jabs and want to get it all over with. HepB(3 time), HPV(3 time, 2 done), MMR-2 too?! I was supposed to do it last wednesday but when i reached the health center, the nurse told gave me a worried look and told me to go in the room. That made me worried but it turned out... The box with my vaccine that the people sent was empty! So i have to leave and they're call me next time when a new box comes. -_-"
oh oh! the kitchen in our house is finally ready to use! I can cook now! =DDD (not that i'm good at it -_-")
April 26 Boulogne trip~We were due to leave at 4.30am.
The night before I was busy watching dramas in the computer room. By the time i realise it, it's alread 9.30. so i went to be a little late then expected.
I set my alarm clock at 2.45am since i need to shower and all but i finally woke up at 3.30 -_-" rushed out of the room and woke Ifsha up.
We Reckitteers reached the bus area at 4.45am-ish. A tad bit late but the coach has only arrived at that time so it was okay. The coach consist of 3 staffs, 1 mother, 8 six formers and 18 or so year 7 and 8.
The journey from the school to the Euro tunnel was the longest part of the journey. I dont know exactly how long it took but it was long enough to watch Shrek 2 the movie and still have half an hour left (that's what we did when we were on the way back to school at night). It's so cool that there's trains with carriages that vehicles can ride on. We also had a carriage by ourself so the teachers let the kids out of the bus for a while.
Since the teachers couldnt find where the Oakview people kept our packed breakfast, we were left with no food until we've come out of the Euro tunnel and stop at a gas station( well there was no gas station, just the shop XD) where we were told to get something light to fill our stomach so we dont faint. Here, I shared a packet of waffles with Ifsha, Kelvin and Melissa. Loads of the young ones bought lollipops and fizzy drinks. Which explains their hyperness the rest of the day.
In Boulogne... we went to the fish market where the some of the lil ones screamed due to the 'wonderful' odour. Visited the fruits and vege market where there were meat, vegetables, fruits, flowers and also sweets and all those things that Francoise would call rubbish (which the kids bought a lot). Stepped into the streets to look at the shops nearby, ate at a restaurant(where I ate plain pasta with eggs and cheese (to avoid alcohol and meat in the food), had another 30 minutes to walk around(the kids were so sakai they exclaimed every single shop they recognise; "OMG H&M! they have H&M!".
Went to the beach, (the best part!) it was soo scenic! We first went to the rocks and took a picture near the edge of the beach (high tide, couldnt go further) but then... my fear came; we started going up! I stared fearfully at the steps. Not good. I'm afraid of heights. The teachers and kids were further infront already near the top, the other sixth formers were busy taking pictures, me and Azrin went ahead to catch up with the teachers but then Azrin started running up! So there i was alone in between the kids at the top and the 6thformers at the bottom. I tried moving up abit but then i reached a point where i froze. Shouted for Azrin to stop running but he couldnt hear me. It was either drop and hugged the ground i was standing on or screamed for help. Was about to cry >.< Luckily Kelvin proceeded up and reached my side. I quickly grabbed hold of his jacket and followed him up. "Why are you so scared? Just enjoy the scenery" said Kelvin. I felt so low but tried to follow his advice. After a while i wasnt that scared anymore and could, slowly, move up by myself =D
Since i dont have a camera only my phone and the phone's camera's resolution was set to so low -_-" i have only these small and few pictures to share
After the beach, we set sail for the castle! the sixth formers were all tired.. The kids were climbing up small hills and rolling themselves down! Where did they get all the energy? >.> The sixth formers got a seperate tour guide from the lil ones! yay! We went around the castle and inside.We went to the basement through small passage (even visited the dungeon) and went up and passed through the passageway where the soldiers used to lookout for attacks. The tour guide told us loads of stories which was good.
On the journey back, the kids were still hyper. Inside the euro tunnel, the mother actually went out of the bus to escape from the children. The teachers too were getting so stressed at the ever increasing hyperness of all the kids. They even made all the kids go out of the bus and play around in the carriage. There, the kids played truth or dare with funny dances and catwalks. It was an entertainment for us older people watching from inside the coach.
We reached school at around 9.30pm. The trip overall was worth the money. =) April 24 quiet time..It's quiet time right now since it's friday. dont know what quiet time is? me neither XD
well actually i have a vague idea.. It replaces our usual prep(homework) time on fridays since on fridays, all the day boarders leave early, the weekly boarders leave for the weekend and the full boarders have the house all to themselves. We get to NOT do our prep and do anything we want in the house (as long as we promise to be lil angels and be quiet). :P
I'm in my usual place during quiet time. At the computer room watching dramas. I just watched the first ep of Atashinchi no Danshi =D
It's interesting =D. I'm refraining from watching ghost friends as I want to get the dvd for that if possible. ^_^V
Today...
I had an interview with some career people that the school brought in. I was so scared but it turns out that the interview was not like...an interview XD. It was just a friendly chat and the person was actually there to help me. Instead of asking what i did and all she asked what i knew and told me what i should know and look into. I learned a lot! another good thing is that she said that i dont have to remember any of it as she's making a summary for me. =D i'm a very forgetful person.
we didnt have our usual fortnight 2-hr guest speaker talk this time yay! because it's the last one for the the upper six, the school invited Clarins over for them. they're getting makeover and massages! lucky them. Wonder what they'll do for us next year. *looking forward to it already* haha.
What I did instead was wondering around under a tree.
... that sounds scary.
lol.
what tree?
they say it's a sakura tree but i'm still doubtful. *googles for pictures of sakura tree to make sure*
*back after several minutes*
hmm.. yeah they're chery blossoms. XD
Yay!
anyways... back to the story.
Me, mel, Angus, Roxana, Ifsha and Charmaine hung around outside admiring the sakura tree and it's falling flower petals. It's beautiful!
Some of us, more than others mcm nda pernah liat bunga wah. setiap sudut kami liat and banyak ambil gambar lagi. siap praying for wind to blow supaya petals turun and we can take pictures lagi.
Stayed there for almost an hour i think. haha
unfortunately... i dont have pictures to show. it was all in Roxana's and Charmaine's camera.
tomorrow i'm going to france! one day trip. i dont know how to spell the place unfortunately. have to wake up at 3.30 am! will update another time. time to sleep now
sweet dreams everyone!
April 20 summer term~Back in UK... currently in Brunei hall. resting and waiting till time to go to school which is around 6pm. It's currently 4pm right now.
I dont want to go to school! I feel homesick already ;_; I miss my family...
But there's nothing i can do. I have to be here and study. It's for my future. and i'm not paying for it. so i have to be grateful.
Here are some pictures at the airport yesterday before my departure. Everyone was there :) I'm very grateful for that. I wonder how many more times will they be sending me off.
How many more times will i be going to and back and THEN not feel anything?
We'll just have to wait and see.
^_^
April 18 school again.School's about to start again.
I have done work so little, it's not worth talking about. Which is normal for holidays ain't it? Teachers leave you at the beginning of the holidays with buckets full of homework and revision to do during the holidays and you leave it till the last minute, or not do them at all... perfectly normal.
What's not normal is me not bothering to do it even the last few days of holidays.
>.>
that's not the spirit Eka!
First day of school after a long holiday.. I usually begin it with full of 'yeah whatever' the day before and march into school full of smile, hoping to tell the world I'm ready.
We'll see what happens this time..
I havent packed yet.
Badd!!
I havent fix some of the clothes that i need to 'touch up' a little before packing.
1 reason is because i know i can just leave them in a 'nice' pile and my dad would pack em for me cos he's the best in that area.
another reason is because the sewing kit is in my mum's room and i havent gone to collect it yet. Mum's already sleeping now.
wah. just made a 'last minute to do list'. i have at least 10 things to do before afternoon >.>
going to sleep now.
sweet dreams.
April 15 4 days left. NOOOOO4 days left till i have to go back to UK
....
That sounds like a bad thing XD
Well it's both really. I dont want to leave the comfort of my home. The open spaces,the privacy, the familiarity, the family, the unlimited internet access. hehe
I havent done much school work
I have to figure out what to do in school when i go back.
Sports.... I dont want to do anything. Dance and aerobics again? I feel like i'm not strong enough to do heavy sports. It would be fun if I have a partner to play with. If i do dance.. since the change of teacher in charge, i dont know how that would be. The last time I took dance it was sooo boring. I should learn to swim.. but next term Pia's not there anymore.. No partner again.
problems and worries
I will try to not be a spoiled little brat! Must be more friendly!
My goal is to come back to Brunei as a more confident person. *nods*
I just remembered... I have some more things i want to eat before i go back to UK. haha
and i have to get a haircut. again. cos the last one didnt make that much difference -_-"
Or maybe i shall not.
the length is bothering me a bit. Tempted to curl it :\
i have only 4 days left! should decide quick
+ i have to send away niichan's plushie and letter.
So lazy to write it....
April 07 MIA in brunei~I've been too lazy and couldnt be bothered. sorry
I'm in Brunei for a week and 2 days? yeah should be. Next week's sunday, i'll be flying back to UK. Super sad. My time here seems so short...
I feel busy here when I'm Brunei. I've only seen fifah for like twice? once when i went to smsa and a 2nd time at Erwan's when he had a movie marathon. Want her to come and hang out at my house again but... yeah. cant seem to fit any free times. only time when i'm very sure that i'm free is in the mornings.She (like the rest) have to go to school!
I love being in my house! It's home =)
My initial expression when i'm home is that.. wow my house is big. wow my toilet is big! my wardrobe is bigger than i imagined! I miss my clothes. where's the Astro?
haha yeah
My dad's coming home on Thursday!
on friday, we're heading to Singapore till monday. Shopping~ but i'm sad that i have less time in brunei.. :(
I havent opened my bag with my school work in it. I'm so bad... must start doing them.
Today, I presented my life in UK to sec 4 and 5 of PJN. waaa i think i did a freaking ugly job at it. I wasnt bad but I knew i was just blabbering around.
Super duper sad that i couldnt show Mar's presentation. She was so worked up about it and spent a whole lot of time doing it too.
So yeah, i spent most of the prev days thinking and preparing for that.
Aku jetlag. First time. So i cant really say I had a pleasant first week. Fell asleep at couches and floor. Couldnt sleep till 5 AM in the morning~ Fall asleep at 8 pm the next day and waking up at 2AM, sleeping for 12 hours! Fighting my body is really hard :\
I cant really say that I'm over the jetlag though. I'm still up late. I cant seem to sleep at 10 or so but when i think of it, that's like normal when you're on a holiday right? *sigh*
Tomorrow... wait. I dont have any plans for tomorrow! just realised that. was supposed to have one but canceled last minute. heh. -_-"
btw, i lost my phone otw back to brunei. I lost my camera somewhere in the house! i suspect it's in a couch(it has a hole deep in it) but i cant rip a couch open. I'm so bad with these stuff. That's the 3rd time I lose a phone. Now i have to get a new UK no....
I want to eat Takoyaki! (havent gotten that yet)
People said I've grown taller and my skin is fairer. REally? I didnt notice it at all. What i know is that i dont feel fat anymore. I'm more comfortable with my body. I'm not skinny but i like it =) |
