6:13 AM for you.
HAHAHAHAHA I HAVE NOT POSTED FOR LONG ENOUGH SO NOW IT IS TIME TO BRING THIS STUPID BLOG BACK TO LIFE! (This is going to be very long. You might wanna fetch some popcorn and maybe a Coke.)
Okay, exams are over (like, over. Even Chinese O's--HAHA). So bad things all come to an end, even if it feels like they won't. (: I like to think that every time something bad happens and I gotta get through it. My results were actually better than I expected (I thought Chinese and IH were down the drain, but they were just tethering over the edge) and I'm just thoroughly relieved I made it to HC (this sounds stupid, but anything can happen, and I was pretty sure that anything would happen. It didn't, so yeah okay you win Stella!). HP is another thing, but there's nothing I can do about it now (signed up for it though) so I'll just see how it goes.
Went to Langkawi a few weeks ago and I'm telling you THAT WAS THE LIFE. (: The sea was crystal-clear and the sand was so fine it was like water anyway, and the people were awesome. It was the perfect reward for getting out of EOYs alive (although by the second day I was already worrying about my results). My sister and I shared a room and I think we bonded a lot (we watched lots of TV at night and we did a lot of dancing to weird songs--I think they were doing the Phineas and Ferb Top 10 Songs Countdown or something). So that was good (: And now that Chinese O's are over (HALLELUJAH!) I seriously have nothing on my agenda. I mostly spend my time sleeping, writing (I have made breakthroughs, tyvm!), worrying about UK (LET'S GO ALREADY), and going out with friends. I'm telling you, this is the life. I'm not used to having no work yet, but I could certainly get used to it. It's like the end of a road, and even though there's another long, tedious one ahead of you, there's a brief stretch of green grass in between. I'm gonna enjoy this stretch of grass. (: I totally deserve it--as does everyone else!
I've also be trying to train a little more these few days. I squeezed in 6 hours--last night I headed to Maris and today I went for school training. Maris training was painful. I mean, not really literally (well yes literally--I'm aching all over now. I've completely lost my physical fitness because I haven't trained properly for AGES). It was painful because it's disturbing how much I've deteriorated. I mean, okay, I did alright for someone who hasn't touched bat and ball in weeks, but thinking about all the things I used to be able to do is sort of...well, it's not very nice. :/ I used to put up a good fight for a lot of people, and NOW I AM A SITTING DUCK. I think most of you would know by now: I have no talent. I get by with hard work and by training twice as hard as anyone else (not like some people we all know...darn all you talented people.). Without the training, I'm screwed. So yesterday told me what I needed to know. Reflexes, ball sense, ZERO. We're back to square one.
Nanyang training was slightly better. I managed to get some good sense back--the instinct never leaves me, it just sleeps on me sometimes. It's like a hibernating animal now and I gotta wake it up. It's quite stubborn, but it's stirring. The bad news is that I won't be able to train in the UK so it doesn't really matter how good I am now. When I get back, though, it's training all the way. It's like major demolition mode. I kind of whack everything that goes. (:
I've been reminded how hard it is to fit in. Sometimes, it's not something you do or didn't do--it's just how people look at you. I'm not going to change myself (much) just to fit into the crowd, but I certainly won't let myself get too close, either. The people who know my name say I'm loud. The people who know me say I'm quiet. So now you know people are like onions. They've got layers.
There are many more things I want to say here, but I can't really remember what they are. I'll say it when I remember. I'm exhausted so I'm gonna go hit the sack now. (: I'll be back tomorrow and hopefully by then I will know what I want to say. I remember they're relatively important and actually quite emotional...but it's too late into the night for emotional ranting, so I'll spare you. In the meantime, here are some things I should probably tell a few people:
Stella: UK UK UK UK UK UK. You're rooming with me so good luck and God bless you. (: I will love you no matter where you go so your not being in HP won't matter to me (and I haven't made it there yet!). Do what you have to do for yourself :D And then, UK UK UK UK UK UK! Edwin: Sorry I can't go for training these few weeks. I'll be back after 25th. (: When I get back please be merciful if I have to play with you. You would have trained for weeks already. I would be totally back to basics. Yingjie: Happy belated birthday and good luck for your A levels! (: Ji Inn, Maddie: HAVE A SAFE TRIP! (: We'll see you at the Globe! Linus: Too bad I can't see you before I leave. D: I'll see you after I get back, then! Take care (: Rosemary: Wallace videoed us D: CAN WE KILL HIM PLEASE. GAHH. It was great working with you (: I GIVE YOU HUG! HAHA. Lynn: JUNIOR APPLE. I'll see you when I get back (: We'll marathon it--10 hours of training in one day. I'll bet you we can do it. Whether we survive after those 10 hours is another question. We'll see how it goes. :D
Okay I'm done. 'Night!
