Month: January 2003

Yeh! Xanga is up again! I can post! I feel like posting early today but Xanga was down earlier…=( Luckily I only had to wait for about 15 mins. I had 3 frees at school today…but I wasted 2.5 of them. The other 0.5 I was actually revising M3.

*Happy BiRthDAy JESS!*

Yes Anna, I have Ms Conway and she is definately the better English teacher of the two! I hate my other English teacher.

I just found out that my better English teacher is pregnant and leaving on maternity leave in March. Haha she’s siz months pregnant and none of us noticed.

This time I am seriously so screwed. If I get two bad English teachers then I am going to quit English. Hmmm. I really hope they give us sb who knows what they are doing. Like Ms. Gower for example. Pls pls, give us somebody reasonable! At least sb with more experience. Any teacher that has been teaching english at KGV for 3 years + will be ok. Thank you journal. Your silence has guaranteed the grant of my wish. Thank you, thank you!

Just discovered Norah Jones. Pretty cool music. But I’m gonna just go on promoting *Faith* cuz there is just nothing like her/it!

I wasn’t going to post today but after reader other people’s blogs I decided to post sth. My background is gone for some reason but I don’t have time to do anything about it yet.

Chicago interview in Dan Ryans to look forward to. Ooh and Hui Lau Shan…haha I haven’t done planning for two weeks later in a very very long time.

The Ex-KGVers talk was scary! I am under the impression that every one is drunk and puking and wasted all the time. Even at Yale man. I don’t mind getting drunk/wasted like once a year…but every day (in England) and every friday night (at Yale) wth. Not my way of spending $1,000,000 at uni. The propectices (eek can’t spell) make it sound so nice but maybe it’s not. Hmmm…

And M3 on Monday but I’m seriously so screwed (note the use of alliteration for emphasis I haven’t finished learning that, never mind revising. I’m trying to get better English Grades (got a C for my previous piece of work) Partly I think its because “she” is such a bad bad teacher, (she is seriously so crap compared to Ms. Gower, I sleep in her lessons and she doesn’t teach you anything, she makes you discuss, saids ‘very good’ and doesn’t points out your mistakes, then in your essay you get a C. Plus she’s so lazy it literally takes her 3 weeks to mark your work. And she doesn’t give you model answers) And well, I guess partly its my fault, I haven’t been self-studying (I don’t normally need to, but with such a bad teacher, you must). So I’ve borrowed an Angela Carter Book and I’m reading about her sick mind and weird porn. I showed my mom the porn bit and we were both cracking up. 😀

Gluk everyone with exams! and interviews! and lab-days!

Ma Cornell interview went ok. Apart from waiting for her for 45 mins. I thought the appointment was a 4:00 (I’m actually pretty sure it was) but she thought it was at 4:30. Still can’t access the KGV email so I can’t verify. Ate tiramisu at the interview. Not bad. =)

I seriously hope I get in la! Rilly rilly want to go to US!

Short entry 2day.

Stupid KGV server. I can’t access the email to get the contact number of my cornell interviewer tomorrow. Gluk to all those who have interviews and daniel, don’t worry about your interview report! I’m sure they don’t view interviews that heavily.

Went jogging with emily this morning…it wasn’t that cold out and I managed to run around 5 laps. *Hehe* Then I spoiled it all by going to macdonalds. *Sigh* I had a craving for a hash brown and ended up eating a whole meal. *Urgh* this is so annoying!

Great Job to Kerry and Emily Y for getting in Cambridge! You guyz deserve a huge pat on the back! *pats*

Haha the entry is no longer short cuz I have more to add. My dad just came home from work and it’s his second last day before retirement. He seriously got so many presents. 25-odd. I opened them all! So happy. He got lots of nice gifts. and lots of blessings. Some were hilarious though. Like a plate that saids “¾¤¥ÃªL¦Ñ®v´f¦s:§@¨|­^¤~ Canossa Primary School (P.M) P.T.A”

and there was a crystal thing that said “¾¤¥ÃªL¦Ñ®v´f¦s:®v®¦¥ÃÃh” Haha like my dad’s dead or sth (touch wood) even my chinese is better than theirs.

then there were all the norm pressis, pens, keychains, scarfs, ties, belts, thermometers, etc etc.

and I couldn’t help but wonder, wow, my dad is very popular at school. Probably there are some of these kids who want him as a dad. He can spend hours on the phone with them. I ought to be grateful and thankful that I have a wonderful dad. *sigh*

– unless of course when he is stubborn. :-p

The crystal thing.

errrr…. yeh. Thats all.
