#24: last embrace

What is about to come your way may be something extremely corny and cheesy and romantic. If you can't take any of those, you may want to find your way out now.

And here's the story of a girl called X.

I have a friend called X.

I met X 3 years ago. Back then, X was an entirely different person as she is now. She wore the most outdated spectacles, with the ugliest hairstyle anyone would have asked for. From the first look of her, she's someone whom you never thought you would be friends with. The number of times I've spoken with her was countable - barely 10. Or 20.

Me and X were in the same class 2 years ago. This time, I think the connection between us got better and we spoke with each other for more times than we did 3 years ago. Although we were not that close yet, she was still quite a bubbly person.

1 year ago, we were in the same class again and X was my desk mate. I didn't know what or how to feel for we were still not that close yet. But thankfully for all the school events that brought us closer, we became almost like one.

Now, we are still desk mates, but even better desk mates. I really love how we can laugh even at the most unfunny joke, how we can read each other's mind like as if we have some psychic powers in us, how we have the same chemistry, how we can get crazy together and basically do almost everything together.

You know, it's like NOTHING IN THIS WORLD CAN WORD OUT HOW I FEEL.

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

I wasn't myself again today, for the bajillionth time. That being said, she didn't ditch me but she tolerated the really nonsensical me (I blame her Mentos btw) and bore with it till the end of English class. And for that, I am really really really really grateful. Others would have just thrown me aside and let me rot in one corner but she chose to sit beside me and go crazy with me (or maybe because she didn't have a choice).

That's one out of a many many many things I love about X.

Saying "thank you" can no longer express my gratitude, my love, my everything for X because she has extended beyond a simple "thank you".

And my friend X, you are incredibly significant in my life.

Thank you very, very, very, very much, my lovely desk mate - Goh Jia Jing! ❤

#23: mad hatter

The week just passed too quickly. But anyway here's my summarized week:

Monday:

Camped at home for the entire day watching movies and doing some homework.

Tuesday:

Extra lessons from 8am - 12.30pm then there was band practice from 2pm - 5pm AND MS JACKSON (together with Mr Chris, Ms Heather and Ms Lim) CAME AND CONDUCTED OUR BAND HOLY MACARONI CHEESE CAKE

She was so lovely, so magnificent, so mysteriously magical. And she has successfully made it (not that she had to choose) into my list of "People I will never forget, at least not in the next half century".

Everyone should meet her.

Wednesday:

Extra lessons again from 8am - 12.30pm and then.............................my phone died even before I had lunch at Long John Silver's with Elaine and Vianne. I was so depressed at the time I didn't know what to do I felt like strangling myself slaughtering a thousand cows (which, by the way, are animals I love) kicking everyone walking past me shooting all the clouds in the sky.

THAT WAS HOW SAD HOW SCARED HOW FRIGHTENED I WAS

Not to forget, my security level went down 248925782457847128957129592404859478924753 times

But it turned out that it was just a dead battery which took 10 hours to undie its death. Ever since its "death", I've learned to treat my phone with more care ie. not letting it fall again although I just did 3 days ago.

Thursday:

Last day of our extra lessons and I was extremely grateful for that. I was so sick and tired of waking up at 7am every day during the holidays. It's not like I haven't had enough of 6am-rise-and-shines.

I hereby demand a longer break and by that I just mean waking up a lot later every day.

Friday:

Finally a day with a decent break although I didn't really make full use of it. Was I having another movie marathon? I think I was.

Saturday:

Home alone with my mom and my dad which was a relatively good thing for with them around my liberty was being cut down by a lot. That being said, my day still wasn't very productive though I completed most of my homework and speaking of which, I just remembered I haven't filed my Chemistry file (that was due quite some time ago).

Anyway we celebrated my gramma's birthday at Orchidville and cheese stick that place there is really too good and the few cute Chinese men there are beyond incredible.

Sunday:

Preparing myself for the diabolical cycle that starts tomorrow and also........................Focus Study.

I have to report to bed earlier tonight.

#22: storm to happen

Saturday:

I was mourning the loss of my sleep on a Saturday morning. I woke up at 6.30am (together with my sister) then we walked to school for the first time in 4 years. I could hardly ever believe that. The last sentence is a joke – there is nothing very unbelievable here.

It was R³ Day and our class requested beforehand that we would like to (again) be at the Collection Center (or Point or Place or whatever) instead of running through blocks and collecting stacks of newspapers/bags of unwanted clothes/sets of stuffed toys. And we got it. So while everyone set off to their blocks, we went to CWP to have breakfast whoopodoodle ☺

Then around 9am we walked back to school and started playing a game of Volleyball/Netball before the first truck arrived and the guys went to do the job while the girls.....continued with the game.

Then the second truck arrived.

And the girls went to help.

Then the third truck arrived.

Everyone went to help.

Then the fourth truck arrived.

Everyone was having fun already.

Then it started to rain.

But we still had fun until something terrible (not exactly) happened BUT DOOD OUR CLASS WAS SO UTTERLY BONDED AND LOVING AND HOLY CHEESE CAKE MACARONI CHICKEN PEA MUSHROOM CURRY SAUCE WE (not the entire class though) WAITED UNTIL ANNESSA JIAJING JIAYIN RHYNADE SHUYU VIANNE FINISHED WHATEVER THEY WERE DOING THEN WE LEFT THE SCHOOL.

If you were there you'd have gotten the hang of what happened. Something extremely unpleasant, for a start but who cares WE HAD SO MUCH FUN (❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤)
