Yeah, my cheesecake turned out well and it tasted good too. However, I think I can make it taste better and also improve on the appearance of it. Next time, I will make it less sweet. So far, I have only eaten one slice of the cheesecake. The rest will be shared by my family.
I spent my afternoon trying to figure out how to improve the taste and texture of the cheesecake, because I think that there is still room for improvement. The cheesecake seemed a little too sweet which is not very good for health. Yes, I also consider health factors when I make food because I studied food and nutrition before, so I have no excuse not to know it.
Tomorrow, I can start packing for the scout camp this Friday. I will also do a final cleaning and packing of my room because my brother is just too messy and he is getting on my nerves. Next week, I am starting work on Monday and I am so excited because I have been waiting to start work for about two weeks already.
It is pouring the whole day and I cannot go out. I wanted to go to the bank in the morning to deposit my money but I overslept and woke up at eleven. After lunch, when I wanted to go to the bank, it starting raining so I have no choice but to wait for the rain to stop. Rain, rain, please go away I want to deposit my money by today.

Three more days before the scout camp starts, which also means bridge spree. I woke up at nine and went to the supermarket at central to get some ingredients for my cheesecake. The ingredients were rather expensive, but my mother paid for it so it was okay. Anyway, I am going to make the cake very delicious so the ingredients have to be good stuff.
I could not find one of the ingredients in the supermarket, so I had to go down to Bugis in the afternoon to get it. I called Jun Kai to meet me at Bugis train station and we went shopping and I also got the ingredient that I needed. I went home after that while Jun Kai went back to his work place.
By the time I got home, it was almost time for dinner, so I prepared the ingredients that I needed for the cheesecake and had dinner first. After dinner, my maid cleared up the kitchen and I started making the cheesecake crust. My sister helped me with the crust and gave me a few useful tips. Thanks sister.
I managed to get the cake ready at about nine plus and I think by tonight it will be ready to eat. Okay, I am thinking about having it for breakfast. If the cheesecake is good, I will try to improve on my weak areas and make some adjustments to improve the taste of it.

Life is so boring at home when you have nothing to do. I am suffering the symptoms of boredom and I understand it now. I completed all my home errands, cleaned and packed my room again because I really have nothing else better to do. The other half of the day, I spent it in front of my lap top looking at people’s friendster profile and so on.
Somehow I just wish that the polytechnic do not give so much holidays so that I can go to school and complete my education there faster. Somehow I just think that I should be in a junior college studying, so that I do not waste and idle my time away at home like this.
The feeling of being in a junior college is more or less gone because I have been in the polytechnic for a year already. I hate getting use to the slow pace life here, but I have to accept it anyway. I should have studied harder two years ago so that my life would be at a much faster pace now. Anyway, it is part of God’s plan so I shall not complain anymore.
Since I am so bored, I think tomorrow I shall try out my new cheesecake recipe. It is a non-bake style and I have a feeling it is going to be good. I just have to wait for Friday before all my boredom goes away.
The posting results will be out next Tuesday. All the best to my sister and all my friends involve in it. I hope everyone will get into a school of their choice and make wise decisions for themselves if they want to make changes.

Jun Kai came to my church to visit and I am quite sure that he enjoyed the service. I met him at the train station near my church and brought him there. The speaker gave a good sermon and I could understand it quite easily.
After church service, I went down to the canteen to play bridge with my friends and also talk to them. We all later went to the nearby coffee shop to talk and have lunch. I did not eat because I plan to eat lunch at home. I went home shortly, while the rest of my friends went back to church for jamming session which starts in the afternoon.
I went for jamming session and I really enjoy it. I learnt quite a lot of useful tips in drums and also got to play it for awhile. Tomorrow is a start of another week and it will be the last week for me to run all my errands before I start working next Monday.
Saturday, 24 February 2007
I was sound asleep this morning when my father came and woke me up. He wanted me to drive my mother and him to the market to have breakfast together. I managed to get up because I heard there was breakfast.
I was still quite sleepy, but I managed to drive my parents to the market safely. My father and I ate fishball noodles for breakfast, while my mother ate chee chong fun. After breakfast, we all went to buy fish and vegetables for tonight’s dinner. We went home straight after that for lunch.
Tonight, my parent’s friends are coming over for dinner at my house. I do not know what we will be eating, but my mother told me that it is definitely not steamboat. That will be great, because I do not like eating steamboat and my family have eaten that so many times this year already.
I am so delighted that Jun Kai will be visiting my church tomorrow. I hope that he will enjoy my church service and I can host him well.

Joey packed his room for the third time. Is he very bored or what? Well that is because he cannot stand the dust and the mess created by his other family members. They messed up almost his entire room and made it dusty by opening the windows.
Okay, I cleaned and packed my room again. It is just too dirty and messy that I cannot stand it anymore. Since I had the time, I just make full use of it by getting the vacuum cleaner to suck up all the dust and dirt. I packed up the mess lying around and even mopped the floor with the help of my maid.
The room is so clean now, but I think it will only be clean for at most a week because my family will mess it up in no time, especially my brother who shares the room with me. He has no sense of cleanliness and does not bother to put things back when he messes things up. Yes, enough complaining, I will try to change him but it will not be easy.
In the morning, I went to Redhill to help my mother collect the digital video disc player which was just repaired by the company. I collected it and took a bus home for lunch. That is when the packing began. I was supposed to go out, but my friend fell sick and so I have to stay at home.
Tomorrow, scout meeting in the afternoon to brief the new recruits about the upcoming camp. I am so excited to see the new recruits because I can make friends with them.
Thursday, 22 February 2007
I finally woke up on time. In fact, I think this is the first time I managed to wake up early this week. I did nothing but surf the internet in the morning, while my mother brought the maid for a medical check-up at the clinic. I stayed at home and sort of look after my grandmother since my maid went for a medical check-up. Luckily, everything was fine at home until my mother and my maid came home.
At about ten plus, I watched television for awhile before my mother brought me out for lunch. We went to Café Cartel with two of her friends. The food there was good, especially my mother’s fish pasta. I think my beef sambal rice was not as tasty, but at least I got to have a share of my mother’s food.
My mother talked to her friends while I sat there and listen. It was getting kind of boring but I managed to bear with it by joining in the conversation whenever I can. At about three plus, we all left the place and did some shopping before I went home, while my mother went to run some errands.
Tonight, I will be going for a scout dinner but I do not feel like going because none of my friends will be attending it. There will be only adults there, which I am not very comfortable with. The worst thing is that these types of dinners always end late and I want to go home and sleep early.
Wednesday, 21 February 2007
The funny thing is that I woke up at about six because I was bitten by mosquitoes and could not sleep comfortably. After that, I went back to sleep until eleven thirty. This was to make up for my loss sleep due to the irritating mosquitoes that keep buzzing in my ears.
I woke up just in time for lunch, which was laksa cooked by my maid. After lunch, I brought the digital video disc player to the service centre for repair as it was faulty. It was rather heavy and bulky, therefore I took a direct bus there to save energy. The service centre staff was quite efficient and I managed to drop the faulty item off in less than five minutes.
From the service centre, I took a train down to Bugis to meet my mother to do some shopping with her friend whom she met for lunch. We bought some household items from the shops there before heading home.
In the evening, I had a scout meeting regarding the coming recruit training camp. The meeting lasted for about two and a half hours, but it was not boring as we had to discuss about the programme for the camp.
After the meeting, we planned what to do in the camp after lights out since we were the camp organisers. We all agreed on playing bridge throughout the last night of the camp and go home straight after that. I cannot wait for that day to come, but I think it will be a very tiring night.
Tuesday, 20 February 2007
I spent my entire day playing card games or board games. It started with "stress" and I played it until lunch time. After lunch, I played monopoly with my family except my father because he wanted to have a nap.
We played monopoly until my sister and I became bankrupt. It gets very frustrating when you have no money left to continue in the game. My brother won shortly after I became bankrupt, followed by my mother. Both of them won because they got to buy all the good houses.
After playing monopoly, it was about two plus. I quickly took a bath and got ready to go to my friend’s house. I reached there about three plus, and I found out that I was the second person to reach there. We had nothing to do besides talking, therefore I took out my deck of cards and we started playing card games.
About an hour later, more people started to come, so I decided to play bridge with them. We played until dinner time. After dinner, we continued playing bridge till nine plus before I headed home with my some of my friends. My friends and his family were very hospitable and I hope to be able to go to his house again.
Monday, 19 February 2007
It is so hard to believe that the Chinese New Year celebrations are coming to an end. Tomorrow, it will be the last day I will go visiting before everyone goes back to the normal working life. I woke up at an amazingly late time of eleven this morning and my parents or maid did not bother to wake me up. I just woke up, ate breakfast, and it was about time for lunch before I know it.
After lunch, my family and I cleaned and packed up the whole house. It is like a little too late, but at least we managed to clear the store room and I managed to clean up my room. My cousin came at about three plus and gave me and my siblings red packets. She even played bridge with us and was really good at it. I hope to learn some tricks from her one day.
In the evening, I will be going over to a friend’s house for dinner with my family. My family will be bringing bee hoon over and I heard there is also curry. Tomorrow, I will be going over to Joel’s house for steamboat in the afternoon with the other crusaders from my school. I hope to enjoy myself before the Chinese New Year celebrations comes to an end.
Sunday, 18 February 2007
Being the first day of Chinese New Year, I am very glad that the time of the year has finally arrived. This is one of my favourite festivals of the year besides Christmas. I started the day off by going to church to worship God. The message was in Chinese but there was also an English translation.
The speaker is the pastor in charge of the Chinese congregation. His message was very funny, especially when he was sharing about his experience in the hospital. Everyone kept laughing because of the way he put it. I can see that everyone really had a good time listening to the word of God.
After church service, my family went straight to my grandmother’s house for Chinese New Year visiting. I received a lot of red packets there. After that, I went to my relatives houses for visiting and also for lunch. My siblings and I played with my cousins some card games before we went home to rest.
In the evening, my family went to a friend’s house for steamboat dinner. I ate until I was very full before watching television at their house. I drove my family home after that, which was about ten. Luckily, the traffic was not heavy so we got home before ten thirty.
Saturday, 17 February 2007
Chinese New Year’s Eve. Most of the shops are closed that is why I chose to stay at home then to go out. This morning, I woke up at eight to drive my father to the market and to have breakfast together. We ate Kway Chap, which contains eggs, pig intestine, pig stomach and so on. I know it sounds gross but I think it is nice.
After buying all the groceries, I drove my father to another market near our house to get a chicken before driving home. At about ten thirty, I followed my mother to the bank to draw some money for myself.
After that, I went straight to church to help out in the worship practice for tomorrow. The worship team sang some Chinese songs as it will be Chinese New Year tomorrow. However, the worship practice took about three hours because they needed more practise on the Chinese songs. By the time they finished practising, it was already one thirty.
I went home for lunch and ate fish porridge. Yes, the fish my father and I bought from the market this morning, so the fish is very fresh. Tonight, my family will be eating reunion dinner to mark the eve of Chinese New Year or something like that. I cannot wait to eat all the Chinese New Year goodies and the red packets.
Friday, 16 February 2007
I am so happy because I got a job that I very much wanted. However the company only wants me to start work on the fifth of March but I hoped to start work immediately. I do not know what to do during the one week before I can start work. Probably I will go out shopping with my friends if they are free or go bowling.
I was so surprised that the company did not call me down for an interview, but I did it over the telephone which took less than five minutes. The pay is six dollars an hour which is quite good and I do not have to work on weekends. This means that my Saturdays and Sundays are free and I can go and teach windsurfing on Saturdays, and go to church on Sundays plus spend time with my family.
I spent my whole morning at home playing computer and watching television. I know that is not very wise and I could have done something more interesting, but I just could not think of anything else to do. I did my job interview via the telephone right after my lunch when the company’s manager called before going to Bugis to meet my mother.
I met my mother there because she wanted to do some last minute New Year shopping. It was quite boring but I did not mind since I am free in the afternoon anyway. After shopping, we wanted to take a taxi home, but there were none in sight so we could only take a bus home. It was not too bad because there were only a few passengers on board.

Well, it is like Valentine’s Day part two in the streets. When I went to Orchard to look for a job again, I saw many girls still holding roses. However there are no girls hugging big teddy bears in the streets. The girls holding roses probably got belated Valentine’s Day presents.
I cannot wait to get a job, but most of the jobs either want me to work on weekends or the pay is too low. My mother just called me in the afternoon saying that her friend has a job for me, but I do not know whether to take it up or not. Maybe I am just too choosy that is why I cannot get any job.
It will be about a week before I will start teaching windsurfing again. I certainly cannot wait to go out to the sea again and enjoy the fun plus the strong winds. I hope that I can remember to windsurf properly, because Da Ming and I will be training my secondary school’s scouts for the upcoming National Windsurfing Regatta in May or June.
I must tell myself to get a job by next week and not be too choosy, because if I am too choosy no job will suit me and I think I will spend the rest of my holidays at home. I cannot wait for the next bowling training and I want to earn enough money to get another bowling ball.
Wednesday, 14 February 2007
I think it is very difficult to look for a job especially when you are looking for good pay, good location and time flexibility. I went to search for a job with Bilson in the afternoon and we did not get a job that suits us, so we decided to go and search for a job tomorrow.
I spent the morning at home watching television, because I had nothing to do and many of the shops are closed so looking for a job will not be fruitful. I hope to be able to find a good job tomorrow because I do not want to waste my time doing nothing and hope to earn some money.
Valentine’s Day. Walking down Orchard Road I can see many girls holding bouquet of flowers. There are even some girls hugging big teddy bears walking down the streets in the city. Well, what can you expect when it is Valentine’s Day?
Tuesday, 13 February 2007
Looking for a good job is so difficult. I want a good paying job and do not want to work on Saturdays and Sundays. I want it near to my house too. I went to Orchard to look for a job and they wanted to employ me. However, the company wants me to work on weekends too which I cannot, because I have to teach windsurfing on Saturdays and go to church on Sundays.
Now I am putting the job on hold and will try to get another job by tomorrow if I can. I do not know if I am too choosy or not, but my activities for the holidays are already planned. I cannot possibly give up church or windsurfing, because they are very important.
I think I will just stay at home and surf the internet as I have already packed my room and have nothing else to do. I hope I am able to start working soon and make myself useful. Staying at home is so boring. I also cannot go out everyday because my friends are still schooling.
Sigh, it is so boring to know that you have nothing to do. Valentines Day is tomorrow and I still got to go and find a job. This is so frustrating, but I can earn money when I work, instead of losing money when I go out.
Monday, 12 February 2007
I was supposed to look for a job but I did not because I was too busy. I spent my day at home packing my room and sorting out all my stuff. After that, I went to watch television for awhile before having my lunch. I ate spaghetti and it was not bad, but I would like it better if there was more cheese.
In the evening, I went for a run with my sister at around five plus. We ran ten rounds round the car park before heading home to shower before having dinner. After my parents came home, I drove them to their friend’s house for a visit. That was how to first day of my holiday went by.
Tomorrow, I hope to be able to get a job and start working before all the jobs are taken up. My sister also did her posting exercise and I am so delighted that she put Anglo Chinese Junior College as her first choice. I hope that she will be able to get into her first choice.
Sunday, 11 February 2007
Sunday is not only a day when I go to church, but also a day that I can play bridge with my friends. Church service was good and I understood the message quite well. After church service, I went to a nearby hawker centre to eat with my friends. We took a short ten minutes stroll there.
After eating, we all went back to church to play bridge until about one thirty. The game was so fun, and we could not stop playing. However, we had to come to a stop because some of my friends have a meeting to attend. I went back home with my sister after playing bridge to eat lunch at home.
In the late afternoon, I went to my aunt’s house to eat ice cream and played chess with my cousins. My aunt had a freezer full of ice creams with different flavours. I think I would like to go to her house more often. My cousins were both in primary school and they are very good in chess. I did not managed to finish the game we them, but I think they played really well given their age.
After going to my aunt’s house, my family went for dinner with some church friends. We ate at a Hong Kong western café and the food was not bad. I ate until I was really full and I cannot deny that I enjoyed my dinner.
Saturday, 10 February 2007
I felt like a complete loser. I did nothing wrong, but I just somehow feel that I could have done something more right. I gave up a golden opportunity and chose to run away instead. My life is so messed up and I made it worst.
My day started off in the morning with a bowling competition at my school bowling alley. I reached there second to meet up with Yusof, because we thought we could do a little warm up before the competition. We were disappointed when we arrived there because the bowling alley was not ready. However, we spent the time talking to each other while waiting for the other bowlers to come.
The competition when on quite well for me, but I could do much better I think. I just made too many mistakes in my bowling and I have to take the blame. If I bowled better, I could have easily improved on my average and maybe even break my high score.
After the bowling competition, I went to the science centre to meet my parents to catch a movie on deep sea. After that, they brought me to a shopping mall for a late lunch before heading home. I immediately took a bath when I got home and my father fetched me to my friend's barbeque party at East Coast Park.
Everything just did not go well. In fact, I think my life have not been going on well. I really need to pray for more courage and discipline in my life to keep me going.
Friday, 9 February 2007
I think I did a great job. I finally found time to clean up my room. By taking all the things out and dusting them clean, I managed to clean my room and make it almost dust free. The dust will come back soon, but at least I did something to keep the dust out for awhile.
In the morning, I played the computer till afternoon. I really needed a break and playing computer is a good way to distress. Next week, I am going to look for a job with Bilson. I hope to be able to get a good paying job at some place that is convenient for me.
My sister got her examination results and she did quite well. Better than me in fact. Now, I am just waiting for her to make her choice on which junior college she wants to go to. Hope she will choose ACJC, because I think that is the best junior college.
Tomorrow, I got a bowling competition at my school. This is a last minute thing, so I am not prepared at all. I just hope that I am able to perform well tomorrow, because I have not been practising much.
Thursday, 8 February 2007
It is the holidays and now I must decide what to do for the nine whole weeks. I just took my last examination paper which is chemical process. It went on fine except that I do not know how to do three questions. It is over anyway, so I should start doing some planning for my holidays.
My Saturdays are more or less settled because I will be teaching windsurfing to some scouts every week. Sundays are set aside for church, family and friends so it is occupied. Now, I just have to think of what job can I do so that everything will be much easier for me.
I am so fussy. I want a high paying job, but do not want to work on weekends and uniform must look cool. The job also must have teenagers like me working there as I want all the fun and laughter. Looks like I better start looking for this job I want before no company wants me to work for them.
The moment I reached home, I started playing computer games. I just want to distress and enjoy my life for a little while. Tomorrow, I will be going to school in the afternoon the meet my friends after their examination. We will go and look for a job together. I think that if we work together it will be better and we can also make new friends.
Wednesday, 7 February 2007
Yay, tomorrow will be my last examination paper which is chemical process. I studied it the whole day and I am more or less prepared for it. It is like only twelve hours before I take my paper. Once I am done with it, it will be my holidays.
I do not have to self declare it, so it is officially the school holidays for the people in my course at least. For some other classes, the people are already on holidays, while some will have it on Friday after their last paper. One day extra is sufficient for me.
I will rush home once I am done with my paper, so that I can go home to pack up my room. I must also go and settle some stuff like bringing my lap top for repair.
Some of my friends will be graduating soon and I will definitely miss them a lot. Well, at least they do not need to come back to school unlike me. I cannot wait to graduate and get out of school for awhile. I want to complete my national service and go on to a good university. I got so many big dreams, so I am going back to study now or else they will not come through.
I thank God for keeping me safe and also watching over me throughout my examinations. All the best to everyone that are still taking the examinations. I hope to do well too.
Tuesday, 6 February 2007
Okay, my microbiology paper went on quite well, only that I made a few careless mistakes here and there. I was so careless in the multiple choice part and lost two marks because of one careless mistake. Anyway it is over already, so I should just look forward and score well in the final paper on Thursday which is chemical process.
I spent the whole afternoon resting because I am tired of studying, but I am going to my friend’s house in the late evening to study chemical process. Tomorrow, I will also dedicate my time to chemical process so that I will be able to do well. Since it is the last paper, I should put in all my effort so that I can get fantastic results.
After my examinations, I will spend one day packing my whole room for the New Year and the new school term ahead. I hope to be able to sort out all my stuff in time and also make my room look neater. I am very fussy so I want it very neat and tidy.
I think I should also send my lap top for repair after my examinations since I do not need to use it and there is also a slight problem with the mouse pad. I must also look for a good paying job that has flexible working hours so that I can keep my weekends free to train up myself. I really cannot wait because the holidays are like three days away and I am stuck in between one last examination paper. All the best to everyone taking their examinations too.
Monday, 5 February 2007
It will be three more days before the holidays. This means that I can start doing all my fun stuff, go out to work, and earn some extra pocket money. I cannot wait when I think about the upcoming holidays, because it is going to be two whole months. I can spend my free time training people in windsurfing and practise it with them too.
I woke up still feeling a little sick probably due to the stress of the examinations. However, I still continued studying for my microbiology examination which is tomorrow. There are so many theories to study, therefore I need a lot of time to get the facts into my head.
After studying in the morning, I went to watch television for awhile so that I could relax a little. I had lunch immediately after watching television for about half an hour. I had porridge for lunch as I was not feeling too well and it tasted alright, just that it was not very filling.
I spent the rest of the afternoon studying my microbiology again till evening. Tomorrow, I hope I am able to recover fully so that I will be able to think properly during my examination. My paper is in the morning tomorrow, so it is a good thing because I can go home straight after that and concentrate on my final paper which is chemical process.
In the late afternoon, I will go to my friend’s house to study chemical process. I can definitely study better there because there is no distraction there and I can concentrate better.
Sunday, 4 February 2007
Sleeping at about twelve in the morning and waking up at seven thirty in the morning made me feel so tired. I was at my friend’s house last night and I came back at about eleven plus to bath and study before going to bed.
I woke up early this morning to go to church to study with my sister and Li Shan. My sister was the first to reach there because she left the house first. I reached there second then Li Shan came shortly after that.
Studying microbiology is so frustrating because my brain just cannot remember so many words, so many graphs and so many theories. I tried doing my tutorials, but some of the questions are not relevant at all which is even more frustrating.
Church service went on well, except that the worship team’s singing was a little bit off tune, but never mind. I cannot understand the pastor’s message but I still sat there and listen to whatever she said.
After church service, I went to the hawker centre with my church friends to eat a little, while they all ate their lunch. We came back after eating and played bridge. I played until my parents called me to go for lunch. Lunch was chicken rice at a famous stall and it was quite costly especially the side dishes. After that, I went home to rest before starting with my studies again.
Tonight, my family will be having dinner at my grandmother’s house which means I get to see my cousins. Bad thing is that I will have less time to study, but good thing is I get to see my cousin. We have not met for quite some time so it will be good to catch up later.
Saturday, 3 February 2007
This morning, I woke up and started studying my microbiology right after breakfast. I watched television for awhile before eating lunch. Lunch was fish porridge and it tasted alright, but I wished that my parents would bring me out for lunch since it was a Saturday. Anyway, that was how my morning went by.
In the afternoon, I drove my sister to her student’s home as she was giving tuition. After that, I went home and started studying again. I have a very short attention span, so most of the study time was spent talking to my mother or else walking around the house.
I got bored after studying the whole morning and part of the afternoon, so I decided to teach my brother his mathematics homework. His homework was pretty easy, so it was of no problem to me. I soon started doing his homework because he was not interested in it.
Since he was not interested in his homework, I went back to study my microbiology. However, when he went back to attempt his homework, he kept asking me for answers and disturbing me. I had no choice but to do his homework for him as he was so noisy. Lucky for me, I managed to complete his homework within a short period of time.
Tonight, my parents will be going for cell group. I want to follow them there because their cell group leader’s house got cable television, so I am able to watch the soccer match tonight. Now, I just have to concentrate on my microbiology so that I have time for that later.
Friday, 2 February 2007
After yesterday’s difficult mathematics paper, I rested almost the whole day before studying for my microbiology examination which is the next paper I will be taking. I am still trying to forget about the mathematics paper as I think I will not be able to do well.
Anyway, I will be looking forward to do well for the next two papers and not give up. I am left with microbiology and chemical process before my holidays begin. I started studying my microbiology yesterday night. I hope to complete studying it by Sunday night, so that I will have enough time to study for my chemical process which is on Thursday.
I spent my morning eating, resting and watching television. I guess that is enough rest for the day and it is time that I get on with my revision. Tomorrow, I think I will spend the whole day at home studying for this subject so that I can complete my revision on time.
The GCE 'O' Level Examinations results will be out in about a week’s time and my sister will be getting her results. I hope that she will be able to do well and get into a good junior college. She seems very stressed and has sleepless nights, but she is always like that so I guess it is just her usual self. I just pray that she will be able to get good results as she worked very hard for the examinations.
Thursday, 1 February 2007
My mathematics examination was a disaster. All my classmates and I think that the paper is very difficult. The worst thing for me was that I had flu during the examination and I could not concentrate properly. My nose kept irritating me and I felt like sleeping during the examination. I managed to get through the examination, but I think I would be able to do better if I was not affected by the flu.
After the examination, my classmates and I went downstairs to celebrate Guo Wai’s birthday before leaving the school. Everyone was so stressed up with the examinations, so they decided to go to Bugis to play while I went home to rest.
I have two more examination papers to go next week before my holiday begins. I hope to be able to finish my revision for the remaining two papers in time, so that I will be confident to do well. Next week, the papers are microbiology on Tuesday, followed by chemical process on Thursday.
Tonight, I will start on my microbiology revision and I will try to finish my revision by Monday. After that, I will focus all my energy on chemical process. It is only one week before I can enjoy my holidays, so now is the time to work hard so that I can enjoy my holidays later.
Tomorrow, I think I will be staying at home to study microbiology the whole day. I think microbiology is all about memorising, so I will have to read and understand to be able to do well. I hope to get a distinction for microbiology as I am quite confident that I can do well in it.
