It was a rainy day today...rained from the morning till the night. Studied so hard for the maths test which turned out to be a false alarm. According to Mr Chee, it was really a test of attitude. Biology lesson today was damn funny. Mrs Khoo kept polishing the stuffed turtle while talking to us...an overturned turtle=turn turtle (lame right?). Contact and CAAL were free periods...had a nice nap. Then went to Bras Basah to buy GC...I'm $190 poorer now. Then went out for dinner. Lol! My umbrella is wonderfully flimsy. I know that it was funny, but it was a great feeling. I really want to buy BoA's Made in Twenty album now. It's nice. Despite the rain, today was a wonderful day! I'm starting to cough again...no more cold drinks!

The class was super high today...Zhili was ultra high today. Even I was influenced. Mrs Khoo's tutorial was so funny. We learnt so much about her...Mrs Khoo is so cool. Haha she is even more random then us. How can I be high, I'm Tim Low. Get it?
I guess I have made my choice, I will just accept whatever is given to me. Life moves on.

Going to KL tomorrow...hope that the weather there won't be too hot. Gonna leave early tomorrow morning to beat the jam at the causeway! Meimei, Yiqi and Rachel are also leaving for Malaysia tomorrow morning...maybe we will get to see each other at immigration...haha. The CNY celebrations were fun...exchanged oranges with all the teachers. Ms Ng is the nicest teacher ever! Then, went back to RV. Haha saw alot of familiar faces! The staffroom was open...finally entered the staffroom after four years in RV. The whole place smelt of coffee, I wonder how the teachers can concentrate in there. Seeing the familiar surrondings and the faces of all my teachers and juniors, really makes me wonder, absence really does make the heart grow fonder. In all my four years in RV, I have not had such feelings towards the school. It is only after leaving RV, that I start to look back and discover that alot of memories were from RV. Sometimes, I really miss RV. However, life has to move on, in every stage of our life, we will get to meet many people...some good, some bad. No matter what, we must cherish our life, and live life to the fullest. Here's a quote to end this post:
"Memory is a way of holding onto the things you love, the things you are, the things you never want to lose"
So, let us all cherish our memories and everything we hold dear to us!

Chinese New Year is round the corner...going to KL for the new year. So glad that this year's CNY holidays are longer than usual...4 days of rest. Alot of things happened over the past few days. Yesterday was Valentine's Day, thanks guys for all the wonderful presents...you guys rock! Went to Junction 8 after school...haha Zhili went to JE instead of J8. Dinner with you was great! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Hope you like your present. Thanks! Went to see the doctor at 10.30pm...by the time I reached home, it was 12.30am...at least I can finally have a break from all the coughing. Coughing is tiring...it irritates others too. In the bus I get weird looks when i enter a coughing fit...reminiscent of the SARS era. I am so glad that I can finally rid myself of this irritating cough. It's drawing closer to March...when some of us in 07s22 will go in different directions...however, we will not and must not forget the fun times we had and the many friends we made during this first 3 months. There will always be one 07s22...actually there will only ever be one 07s22. E.g. 06s22, 07s22, 08s22. I think you got the picture. I am so lame...but thats just me. Wishing all a Happy Lunar New Year. Gong Xi Fa Cai!

Reflect.Reflecting.Reflections.
Now is a time of reflecting. Reflect about past attitudes. Reflect about what went wrong. Reflect about my study methods. Only through this will I learn never to repeat the same mistakes in life ever again...I don't want to go through this ever again. Being the one who makes the choices will always be better than being the one having to accept others' choices. Now I can only leave it up to fate. 07s22...how can I ever forget u all......we rock man!

Time will never stop...you can only move on. Life is 10 percent how we make it; 90 percent how we take it.
When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened in us-- Alexander Graham Bell
What Ms Ng said during Econs tutorial today was very meaningful. We should not let any minor setbacks in life affect us greatly. Let's all cheer up and be a happy class once again.

10th Feb 2007...today was a special day. Went out with you to buy presents. Haha walked and walked and discovered how little I knew about Singapore's shopping district-----Orchard Road. I know that it was weird...but that's how I am, lousy with words. Glad that it's settled. I'm very happy too! Thanks for everything! =) WooHoo!!
9th Feb 2007...It was a day of mixed emotions. In the afternoon I was so happy after reading your letter. I'm glad you felt the same way as me. Then I discovered that Singapore is a small place! Saw MeiMei in Vivocity, even though her school is so far away from it. After going back to RV, I suddenly felt a sense of familiarity...seeing all the teachers, my juniors and the familiar surrondings...how i wished I could turn back the clock and stay in RV. My four years in RV was a time of happy and sad memories...of which I will never be able to forget.
Then came the results...after looking at my result slip, I suddenly felt relieved. All my nervousness flowed away in that second. I was numbed...looking at my English grade...B3. Then came the calculation of my L1R5. I couldn't describe how Ifelt...when Ifound out that I had performed below my own expectations. Haiz......
After that went out with kwan, wensi, qinny, chiewyin and jean to Vivo. We relieved our childhood memories...playing with water and joining the little kids at the playground. Had a great time too. Wensi dont be sad ok? Jean too. Although we all did not meet our expectations, life still has to go on...
I know that life has to go on...but I cannot stand to leave 07s22. The pain starts to set in when I start thinking about leaving NJ...I cannot bear to leave behind all of you guys...and all the friends I have made during these few months. Thanks for all those kind words of encouragement...I promise that I will go to school on Monday with a happy face. I will make the most of this month...then whatever happens after that...I will leave it to the Lord. Choices are hard...but this time I dont have a choice...my results are after all mine...I get what I put in. I guess this time I didnt put in much effort...so perhaps this is what I deserve. It's a hard lesson, but one which I will never forget.

Although there are so few guys, but the girls are nice, they did not ostracise us. So many things happened in the past few weeks. Ever since stepping into NJ, i made so many new friends. I noe that sometimes i can be insensitive, but i am really glad u all are such great ppl. 07S22, a wonderful class...with interesting, weird, cool, and wonderfully funny teachers.
