Woah, it's been a tough week.

1) Finally managed to tell my sister I want to stop taking ballet. It was really tough talking about it, too. Still considering if I want to stop, because it's not as if I totally hate the activity, only the people and feeling stupid next to them. Also, if I decide to only do it for leisure, what if I waste my sister's money? It's $320 per term!

2) Yeah, yeah, I know what you're going to say about this one. Holiday homework. As it has always been for all long holidays, I've barely started on the homework. Wonder why the hell they call it a holiday? Surely it must mean something.
Anyway, I've started on Accounts, Math, both Sciences and a teeny bit on Geog. I hope Mrs Chow won't kill me. I hope Mrs Khoo won't either. Doing Math is like ploughing through a trench of thick mud with a heavy log hanging by a string over my head.

3) I've been swimming a lot lately. Just went swimming about 4 hours ago, and boy, was it refreshing! The humid weather in my country can easily be compared to diving into lava. One gets all sticky before stepping out of his own house! It's surprising why people aren't fleeing to somewhere cooler.

4) Tomorrow is another long day. In the morning, I have to be at school at 9am for Math tuition.
I try to pay attention (honestly!!!) but somehow I find myself stoning at the whiteboard and dreaming of food and nice houses by the sea while Uncle Raymond goes on about some Math question. I feel quite worried because quite often, I can't understand what he's saying. It's like he's speaking another language, foreign to me. Luckily for me, most of the other kids seem lost as well. He's a genius, but he says strange things.

After Math tuition at noon, I'll be going over to Chewy's place to bake things and pose with the oven. I'll smell of cookies afterwards! At 6pm, I will have to meet Kathleen and Gervin at City Hall MRT station for dinner.
Pretty excited to see them after such a long while. It's great to see them still communicating like they used to even though now, they're in different schools.
I hope they haven't changed at all.
