Today is pretty a tiring and distressing day. I had some conflict with Jia Yan that made me feel very angry. Knowing that posting bad things about other people especially my friend online is not very wise, I will skip the details and just say that it is quite an annoying thing, maybe due to conflict of ideas and way of thinking.
My personality is to do everything slowly but putting in heart and soul into it, producing a good piece of work. Jia Yan's personality is to finish everything asap so as to get rid of the sense of the burden of responsibility. I would say that both aspects are not wrong, and it depends on the situation. However, we still have a good one and a half week left for our presentation. Yet we have to rush the prezi by what seems like end of the day and even sacrificed our recess...
Jia Yan did the prezi and I appreciate her efforts very much. There is just some parts in the prezi that makes it look very unprofessional as overusing of pictures and colours and clumping of words have obstructed the points we are trying to get across, which is the main purpose of a presentation. I understand that making changes requires a lot of time, but I feel that since we still have some time left, it is worth it to change to meet quality standard. Maybe the look of the prezi isn't very important to Jia Yan, as she is focusing more on the content. However, as a very visual person, I simply cannot stand a bad piece of artwork. Maybe that's where the conflict start.
Nevertheless, I think we are cool. Can't believe that this stupid presentation can stir up so much negative emotion. Conclusion: doing presentations on topics that I have absolutely no passion about is pure torture
Note to Jia Yan if you are ever seeing this (maybe accidentally):
Sorry I didn't mean to say that you are not good. Just take this as a meaningless ranting because I just have to vent this uncomfort in my mind somewhere. After this incident, we are still good friends :)

I cannot think of a title. Nyan cat?
Hi. I'm back.
No, I'm not going to continue with the journal thing. Cos it's 1 months away already, and school reopened, and I'm too lazy to write.
This really shows how inconsistent I am. I don't even trust myself nowadays.
Anyway, today I'm going to write about sth that is epic, like the answer to life, universe and everything.
Nope, that is sth too simple to write on. The answer is obvious: 42.
So, I'm going to write about sth very small instead.
S.M.P.
Today there is some misunderstanding, and I thought that we have to quit SMP. I was shocked, distressed, and in great pain and regret until I realised that there's still phase 2 application. Therefore, most likely we will still be able to apply. This made me realise sth. I used to take the smp for granted and thought that it's confirmed we can get a project, so I did not put a lot of heart and soul into it. After I've gone through all of these today, I really really treasure this opportunity now. It's like those people who have gone through a life and death situation and now living their life everyday to the fullest. I shall apply the same thing to my smp, and will really work on it with enthusiasm from today onwards.
Phew.

1st day of Taiwan trip
Okay obviously I'm too lazy it's been a week after I came back and I didn't write anything like I've promised. So anyway, this is what we did for the first day:
Took Singapore Airline SQ 878 to Taoyuan International Airport. Arrived at 6+ pm (no time zone difference between Singapore and Taiwan). We met out tour guide 张爸爸. Now I suddenly realised that I should use 中文 因为这样比较容易。怪怪的过渡。总之,第一天没有做什么事情。然后我们就到我们的旅馆福容大饭店了。

然后我也忘记拍一张旅馆的照片了。 我们要在这个酒店待上五天。
Sorry for those who can't read Chinese. Since I went to Taiwan, it's obviously better to use Chinese. Moreover, this trip is CLEP creative writing Taiwan trip. CLEP stands for Chinese Language Elective Programme. Therefore, I shall use Chinese. 对不起啦。
哦,还有,我们去了一家风格独特的餐馆。外面还有一只很可爱的狗狗。

last day of my trip
Yay today is the last day of my CLEP Taiwan trip. Somehow all my friends are sad except for me, cos I'm coming to taiwan again during December by myself. This trip is totally awesome. The level of awesomeness is way too high to be described. We did so many things. I'll be posting a lot when I get to Singapore about each single day of my Taiwan trip, what I did and some photos I took. I'm quite sure that nobody is reading my blog, so I shall just post for my own pleasure. Just in case I'll forget about this trip later. #foreveralone
I shall make it a journal like thing. It's kind of good that nobody is looking at this, so that I do not have to write to suite other's taste.

Yay I'm posting again!
I'm posting a lot recently which means that my blog isn't dead anymore, for the time being. Cos I'm way too bored.
So, now is post exam and time should be meaningfully, joyfully spent. All our dream fall short after Mr Tay told us to do an IH presentation. Tmr.
Well, seems that all teachers have this misconception that after exam = we are free. Well, we are not. We need to do cool stuff, like growing cupcakes and rabbidizing trees.
So, instead of having a wonderful weekend, we spent hours at home doing script and powerpoint slides for the presentation. And the presentation is only 10 min.
T.T
And we have to bring own laptop some more. 这么没有诚意。
Okay, enough of my ranting. Tomorrow is another long day to endure. The only thing I'm looking forward to is the CLEP taiwan trip briefing. Yup, I'm going TAIWAN!!! :D Have I mentioned this anywhere in this blog? I forgot. So this is the update: I'm going TAIWAN!!! :D. Oh wait I realised I mentioned it in le ambitious holiday plan. Okay nm.
And also the guy from Maldives finally stopped calling me. He called me like 1am in the morning. Must have forgotten about the time zone difference. After I ignored him for 2 days, he gave up and never harass me any more.
My life is awesome. The end.
