Hi, yet another day has passed. I had my first OFFICIAL English lesson today. I think I gotta get used to the American spellings, oh, heck! I don't want to, it's about the same right...? NO lar... oh whatever...

Anyway, none of the people I knew were in my English group, D. KNEW IT...
Nevermind. I can make more friends in this way. I met a girl named... Perlin. She was from Anderson Secondary School. Then came to UB straight, like me. Yeah. But she looks more matured.

We had to do this introductory thing. I had to find out more about her and vice versa. We were given 3 questions to ask.
-Where did you came from before here?
-What's your position(1st, 2nd, 3rd child?)
-What's one interesting thing about you?

Yah... I shan't elaborate further.

Oh! I was late for MATHS class. I waited SO SO long for 154 this morning...
WAIT! Did I tell you my nails are GREEN? Ok, back to the main topic.
So, reached school at about 10.50am, class starts at 10.45am. And there's something wrong with the lecture theatre's clock. It's FASTER.

So I went into class, searched for the peeps... CAN'T FIND THEM!!! Nevermind. Took a seat beside some strangers...
After some looking around, finally found them. So I shuffled... PLACES! Went to sit beside Elizabeth. Yeah... Then Mr. Syed taught... he's so funny man... And so he taught LIMITS. Easy eh... I never learnt that before, but the way he teaches is a slow and steady pace, so it's really easy to understand.

He gives a pretty long break.
GOOD: Rest, toilet break, revise and catch up, ask qn.s if dunno(so far not yet).
BAD: WE PAY THEM $30+/HR to teach us and we get PAUSES?! What the..., some people don't heed "non-smoking" rule and smokes in-campus, came back with BAD BREATH. YUCKS... and the stench of coffee breaths all over the place.

After school, went with Hong Yong and Matthew to a music studio near Chinatown to have my VERY 1st drumming practical lesson. Took me quite awhile to learn the beats he taught me. BUT PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT! I did it! I could play the hi-hat, snare and bass drum part. It's so FUN!
Look... it's really tiny 'cos we used Hy's handphone.

Kinda cool place, but my ears went "bzzz" after that, 'cos the drums are REAL loud, and MATT plays really hard and LOUD!!!

Then, we went to Peninsula Plaza to check out some guitars, stuff like that. I saw a Green Day t-shirt!!! Yippee! But $15, and the printing is not so good. So, I'll check around other shops before deciding to buy. Anyway, they don't have my size, M there.

At night, went to Orchard with my parents and HY... went to visit Sunglasses and Watches store, Uncle Alvin and Carmen... And Auntie YANG. Ok, had Swensens ice-cream, lingered around for a few hours and went back at 12+am...

Hmm... I got my textbooks already, from a senior, or.. should I say, someone older, I don't know if senior is the right "term". Anyway, I was saying... my new friends and I were having lunch on tuesday, then, before that, we already met while I was queueing for the jap. food, so, I was eating, and he suddenly "pops" up behind Jane, and she said "Wah scare me, thought who..." haha... funny :D He scared her... unintentionally.

But, I got the really HEAVY textbooks from him and paid him $95 for those. Wow, and I brought it along with me all the way to Dad's shop. I wrapped it nicely already, so, next year, I'll sell it, hopefully 70% of original price. "hahaha..." sheeshhh...
