I'm eating a powdery apple now. You know, it's so funny. I told myself after the first time I ate a Red Delicious that I would never eat one again because it's powdery and the skin is really thick, but every single time I see Red Deliciouses I'll manage to convince myself they aren't really that bad. People get the try-anything-once syndrome, but I have the try-everything-twice complex. So, even if I try something for the first time and hate it, I'll probably try it a second time to make sure, which isn't always a good idea. Just ask any of the people who watched me crumple into myself trying to finish a piece of Salt Sill Liquorice. Shudder. Anyway, I'm done and I'll NEVER eat a Red Delicious ever ever again.

Have you ever written something and used all the wrong words and felt crappy and cranky and weird when you wrote it so it turned out okay when you reread it the first time but you tore it up the second time? Haha. DAMN. I feel that way about the Commonwealth essay I finished yesterday ): But never mind, it's been submitted so what to do. It's very incoherent, weird, spacey, and you know how they have stream-of-consciousness style of writing? This is like stream-of-semi-consciousness. And it's so complicated, like there's italics and you have to figure out where they fit in and it jumps and jumps I just hope I don't get a crappy mark for it. Spent /wasted quite a long time on it. Which brings me to today, which was a good good day, better than yesterday which was already not bad (: We had History in the morning after LA and Bio Pract which went by really quickly because I could actually do things like ring the bell in the heritage room (For Whom The Bell Tolls! It tolls for me! choitouchwood) and do Biuret's test and Benedict's test, my favourite boys in the whole world :D History was great except for the fact that I probably ate too many jellybeans and was very hyper and was kind of rude to Ms Ong by being not very respectful but I said sorry and all was good. Yina got a hugeass headache and went to the toilet to wait for it to go away, but I was being so sensitive about it I thought she wanted me to go away, which is ridiculous I know, and I only realised what she really said halfway back to the conference room. Sorry man, must be something wrong with me :S Brought her to the Sick Bay after and she got better I think. Then I was ravenously hungry for lunch, and we yakked and ate and later on only half an hour of Chinese before I zipped off to HCI for the Humans Seminar. Saw Sher Sern and he sat across the aisle from me and it was hmmm weird seeing him there. ANYWAY I saw ETHEL TAN SHU SHU but she didn't see me ): Man we used to be really good friends in p5 and 6 ))): She's still very small and cute and uncommonly pretty, haha and I don't know if she still has aspirations to be a model.
I remember we used to do a blog together! Writing a story. And she liked South Park then too! Haha. Cool.
After that went over to school where I walked around with Sheryl Koh to the library and stuff, and then hung out with Rachel for a while and then hopped off to sit with the softballers in the canteen to yak and do work (but yak, mostly) and it was fun and funny. Then Liza and Charissa came down with their racquets and I decided to intrude and play, and they were so nice hahha except for Liza from Ibiza who kept trying to bully me by hitting the shuttle on the ground. And now I think I'll be joining Liza's group for Chi SIA, because I so do NOT want to do DANG AN AGAIN. Went off into the canteen and saw Yina and Lishian and I lazed around talking to Eunice while they did work. Then I had to go pee and then go home! But Mui Suan was at the bus stop so all in all my day has been full of conversation. So as a treat to the rest of the world, I smiled at everyone whom I met on my way back home.

Hey Christine, don't despair! I'm sure Coach will understand. We love you forever and ever and we want you to be HAPPY and if being in softball isn't making you happy, then it's okay to quit. I know what you mean by feeling horrible when it's cliquey. Come back to NY when you miss it (you know you will!) <3333
