-Two Hamsters' Adventure.-
Hey! I think our owner just left our cage open. You wanna try to climb out of here? It's getting kinda small for the two of us in here anyway. Maybe we can find a better place outside of this miserable, small, tiny-weeny place.
Yeah. Why not? I could go look for better food.
So its set? We both help each other out of here and then we go our separate ways?
Sure.
******
I'm sure this was what my two hamsters said to each other before they escaped out of their cage. I was sleeping rather peacefully this morning when suddenly my dad shouted for me. I was like holy shit! Did a burglar break into our house or something? Cos my dad shouted quite loudly.
Anyway, i pulled myself out of bed and he frantically told me the two hamsters were gone from their cage. Those were not my hamsters by the way. They belonged to my sis and she carelessly left the cage open after she fed them and happily went out to school.
So began the search for the two mischievious hamsters.
I found one at around 230 in my sis's room behind her table. And the table is not just a removable desk. It was a built-in table. So i don't know how the hamster got behind it. The hole that the hamster went in through was quite small so i could not even put my fingers through it. Imagin how tiny the hamster had to be to be able to squeeze through it.
Anyway, after around like half an hour, i finally managed to lure the hamster out with some food. Greedy little hamster. So found the female one but couldn't find her husband.
In case you all do not know, the husband and wife hamsters are not really getting along well. They are in the process of getting a divorce and also fighting for the custody of their child now. Yup, they have a child. Luckily the child is not as mischievious as its parents.
Didn't bother trying to go look for the husband cos kinda run out of ideas where he may be. Waited till my dad came home and he found it under the washing machine. Weird hiding place huh? Maybe it wanted to get a bath or something.
So there it was. the end of the hamsters' adventure.
******
Damn. We got so close to being free. Now we are back in this lousy cage.
Let's hope that our owner decides to leave the cage open again one day...

-Update-
Nothing much happened the past week. My birthday passed just like any normal day. Okay. not exactly normal. My red eye came back on that day. Of all days, it chose to return on my birthday. However, i would still like to thank all those who wished me happy birthday. You all made my day.
Went out on sunday to celebrate with my family since my mom could not make it on friday. So went to town, watched a movie, had dinner at Jack's Place and bought four t-shirts. I still can't believe that i actually bought four at a shot. I have become a spendthrift.
Yesterday i made a trip down to Singapore Polytechnic for my registration. That was the first time that i actually stepped into the school. Can you believe it? In the first place i did not even plan on getting into SP. It was not one of the choices i had in mind but i still ended up there. Sometimes it's a wonder, the things that happen to you in your life.
So, anyway, i spent two hours in the school handing in all my forms, having my photo taken for admin card and getting phsyco-ed by the seniors to join the Freshman orientation( FO ) camps. So many FO camps to choose from. But all these camps are before my actual business school's FO camp so i'm not sure if i want to join any of them.
Boring week. Wait till school starts then perhaps i would have more to blog about.

-I'M NOT IN ITE!!!!!!-
I just don't understand why ITE keeps sending me these phamplets and everything asking me to join them. I have been accepted into a POLYTECHNIC ok? Get it? POLYTECHNIC not ITE. I'm super irritated whenever i see something related to ITE. Why? It's a long story. You wanna know? I'm sure you do.
Well, on results day, i went up to collect my results like all the other people who had done so before me. I was sitting in front of the teachers looking at my horrible result slip of mostly Bs. So, when i was still recovering from my shock, LL handed me this booklet on ITE. I totally freaked out then.
You mean i did so lousily that i hafta enter ITE? But my results is like a drastic improvement from all my sec 3 and 4 results. Yah..i noe..Mostly Bs still a drastic improvement?! Well, i'm like a constant failure since sec3 so yah..I made Major improvements.
Anyway, in my dazed state i went back 2 my seat and these tears start dropping from my eyes 'cos i thought that my L1R5 was above 20. Super devastated.
So yada yada..counsellor spoke to me blah blah..
Then went home and logged in to MOE website and found out that my L1R5 was actually below 20.
Next day school called me up to ask me go collect ITE application. I was like WHAT!!!! I got below 20 okay? So argued with the clerk who called and almost blew my top at her. So sorry.
Went back to school the next day and guessed what they told me? We found out that two of you [ yes, there was another person] actually scored very good marks but don't know why ITE still sent you two application letters.
Bloody! i make a trip all the way to school after work using the super expensive ADULT bus fare and now you are telling me it's a mistake?
And NOW you are still sending me phamplets to go to your school? Like hello? I got accepted into a poly already. So stop wasting paper and sending things to my house!!!!
Sorry for the super long post. I just had all these bottled up in me for a really long time already. No offense to the ITEs though. It's just a personal opinion.

-Lost Friend-
I have made some seriously regretable decisions in my life and i am definitely not happy about it. But what can i do? What's done is done and we all have to move on with our lives.
People always say that Secondary school life is the time where you find some of the best friends in your life. I cannot deny that because i have really made good friends. However, i also threw away a few friendships. One particular friendship of four years went down the drain because of a really silly reason now that i think back. But i do not think that this friendship can be salvaged anymore because...well, because of the simple reason that we have gone to different schools.
A lost friend. Regrets. Apologies. I'm sorry...
-swollen eyes-
There's a reason why i do not like to go see a doctor. They charge exorbitant fees at private clinics and at a polyclinic you have to wait super long. Also, they will just tell you that " it's only a mild infection" when your eye is like swollen.
Bloody hell. I don't know what kind of medicine the doc just gave me but it has just made my eye infection worse. What's worst is i paid 24 freaking dollars for that small, teeny, ineffective bottle of eyedrops.
Forget it. I shall never go see a doctor again unless i'm like seriously ill and have to go to a hospital.
I noticed that i forgot to mention what school i'm posted to in my previous post right? Well, i'm posted to Singapore Poly's Diploma in Business Administration [DBA]. Not a very expected choice right? But Temasek poly is just too far. After considering if i would like to travel 2 hours just to study, i decided against it. I can't afford that much time considering that i'm a really lazy person and i would probably just collapse onto the bed when i reach home from all that travelling and in the process neglect my studies and not getting my diploma much less talk about getting into a university. [hmm..tt was a pretty long sentence.]
Anyway, SP it is and i hope i would not regret my choice later.
