My English O Level Oral 2009

27/08/2009

I totally aced it.

Okay maybe I’m exaggerating a little. For reading part, there was some words I stumbled upon because I was a tad anxious. I scanned through the text, the most complex word were amateur and magnesium sulphide. Easy Peasy.

As for the pictures, I rattled on non stop and I am not kidding. I said practically everything until I became quiet and the examiner asked, “Is that all? We’ll moved on to the conversation.”

SHE DIDN’T ASKED ME ANYTHING REGARDING THE PICTURE PART.

FREAKIN’ AWESOME.

The conversation was about friends which is so easy. She basically asked, Did anyone ever asked you to do a difficult task. And I said difficult as in beyond my ability to help someone? She then further explained..

The next question was, where do you usually make friends? I said school, orientation camps, school again on how we meet each other everyday and etc.

The last question was, have you ever had a conflict with a friend. I told them about my Denise & Adelene saga. LOL. And then the examiner finally asked “So are you still talking to them?” I said dramatically, “Sadly, no.” AND THEY BOTH LAUGHED!

To be honest, my conversation part wasn’t that good. I wasn’t talking in a very coherent manner. It’s like I’m on the spotlight and I’m only given a few seconds to think and compose it. Furthermore, I didn’t give a lot of points. I gave 1 point and then elaborate as much as i can on that.

All in all, I am very pleased with it.

And lastly, I MET LIKE A FEW OF MY PRIMARY SCHOOL FRIENDS WHO ARE RETAKING O LEVELS TOO. That’s great since I’m able to go with them!

Anyways, you know there’s like 3 groups and 6 examiners. F150, F151 and F152. I was in F151. One of the examiners in F150 was my secondary 1/2 history teacher. LIKE OMG. And one of the examiners in F152 is one of my choir teacher that I know for years and she’s freakin’ awesome and great teacher. LIKE DOUBLE OMG.

I was really hoping I got my ex choir teacher so I wouldn’t feel that nervous. Yes I am that unlucky, I got into the group that I know none of the teachers that were examining me.

IT WAS LIKE, HI MISS MELISSA CHIN. She’s awesome and she left my school when we were in secondary four and everyone was devastated..

The MAC 109 Dupe Brush

24/08/2009

I think I found the perfect dupe for the MAC 109. Well, maybe not perfect dupe since I don’t have the actual MAC 109 to make a proper comparison.

I’m talking about the Everyday Minerals Baby Kabuki brush! There are minor differences that are dead on but it worked flawlessly for me.

It looks like this,

I believed I watch Fafinettex3′s video on youtube and she said that, the MAC 109 is basically a mini kabuki on a stick.

It has that basic shape the 109 is infamous for. It’s like a dome shape and flat on the toppest middle part. The resemblance is strong ey?

I tried with my BB Creams.

It worked perfectly with the Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream(Red tube) because the consistency of that cream isn’t so thick and I managed to buff ever so lightly onto my skin and produce wonderful results! However, the silver tube, the cream was very thick and I had a hard time trying to blend it all out.

This brush is my current favorite using with my BB cream. BB Cream are essentially like tinted moisturizer perhaps more thicker. I guess if it works for BB Cream, it shouldn’t have a problem working with liquid foundation though I have yet to try.

Take a few more looks!

Yes, the bristles are longer compared to the actual MAC 109. The other major difference is of course the length of that wooden stick. But seriously for just 9SGD, the price is amazing. As we all know, Everyday Minerals brushes are super soft, I’m not kidding. Look what happened to Kamelia when I convinced her to buy one! (I did right?) The bristles are insanely soft yet there is enough bristles to make the brush firm and it doesn’t give way when applying pressure.

Sadly, it has been discontinued by Everyday Minerals. I’m sure you can find it on eBay or by doing makeup swaps on Makeupalley or something.

I hate my random strangers in my home

23/08/2009

Those random strangers used to be my siblings UGH DISGUST THE FUCK OUT OF ME thinking about that.

Yes, I haven’t spoke to them I think about 1 year or longer. The point is that I hate them a lot. We do not acknowledge each other. We ignore each other on the dinner table as well. They are NOTHING to me.

The bitch is 27 years old and the bastard is 24 years old. They are nothing but a menace to society. At that age, they don’t even have a good qualification let alone having a decent o level certificate. I am way superior than them in any case. The bitch only has a diploma from a private school that is barely recognized by the Ministry of Education. The bastard only has a ITE certificate with cGPA of 1.3. I scored nearly 3x of his pathetic cGPA. I’ll take back at saying they’re a menace. They are great at cleaning up our streets and keeping it in pristine condition!

Since I am studying about information technology and thank god for Data Communications and Networking, I decided to make them suffer.

In this household, I rule the internet. Since I’m the only tech savvy person in this house.

I restricted their internet access. I know they love watching korean dramas at night. Anyway, this isn’t the first time I block off their internet. That time I totally block them off and my mother paid me to give them access again. I’ll do anything for money. Well it depends.

This time, I decided to restrict their internet within a timeframe to make them suffer but at the same time not that noticeable.

They are only allowed to access the internet..

Monday – All Day
Tuesday 5AM till 11PM
Wednesday – All Day
Thursday – 5AM till 11PM
Friday – 5AM till 9PM
Saturday – 5AM till 8PM
Sunday – 5AM till 9PM.

Yes I am that awesome. Obviously I have unlimited access to it.

The realization of truth

14/08/2009

With a blink of an eye, I’ve completed my first half of my second year in Temasek Polytechnic. Another blink and who knows I might be sitting in that barber chair and shaving my beautiful hair off in preparation for NS.

All is left is with our main exams and then it’s my final goodbye to my current classmates.

To be honest, I hate most of the people in my class. Well Hate is strong word. I actually categorized them into various categories. They are mainly, Hate, Dislike, Neutral, Exceptional. Now I don’t want to disclose such information onto a public platform. I don’t want any drama to happen. However, if you do want to know it, feel free to hit me up on MSN.

I’m still in disbelief that time actually flies very fast. Even though I said that like umpteen times.

Basically, today is our last day of school. In the morning, i was feeling lackadaisical and a little sick to the point that i could barf anytime.

I gathered up my determination and willpower to get up and get ready for school.

LIES.

Actually, ever since I started schooling at Temasek Polytechnic, I’ve NEVER and I mean NEVER receive a warning letter before. If I were to skip the french class again, I’ll be getting my first warning letter. The thought of breaking my record of not getting warning letters doesn’t seem to entice me that much.

It turns out only six people turned up for our class. We combined with another french class that only had two students. I’m gonna miss French dearly. It is one of my favorite subjects. It’s one of those class where by you actually enjoy learning it.

Nonetheless, CSAD in the afternoon was rather brief. It’s only then I realized that this is really the last day of school and the last time I’ll be seeing my classmates in my classroom.

IT Block Level 5 Labs got a renovation and they apparently got a room full of iMacs! I reckon it’s eMac, designed for use in educational institution.

Yes, the image quality is rather flattering. It’s the 17″ Screen, White.

It’s pretty old. New iMacs are silver, like mine! But still, MACS WILL CONQUER THE WORLD.

I was literally ventilating and i was standing super close to the door.

BB Cream!

11/08/2009

Recently, I’ve been splurging on BB creams. I should stop and just buy MAC.

I bought my BB Cream online. It is much cheaper.

The first BB Cream I bought is Missha’s M BB Cream..

Firstly, it is way too light for me. The consistency of it is really thick as well. It seems to have a beige undertone. Honestly, I do not like it and definitely would not repurchase it.

Something amazing arrived today!

It’s the Missha M Perfect Cover in #23. It’s supposedly to be the darkest and gives the most coverage. But I think otherwise. I’m an NC35.

The consistency isn’t as thick as the Missha M BB Cream.

I shouldn’t have bought these, such a waste of money.

Je parle francais!

7/08/2009

My french role play is finally over! I’m so ecstatic that it’s done. The thought of acting in front of the class has been haunting me through out the entire semester.

Mr Giuliano did commented and said excellent!

I suspect i did pretty bad. I wasn’t that confident with my speech and i did choked up on the longest line.

I’m gonna miss french a lot. One of my favorite subjects.

Now that is over, all is left with our CMSK brochure.

How are you guys digging my new blog theme? I totally adore it. Though i find the banner at the top a tad old, i need something new and french fresh.

//Update

I’m so loving my new blog theme and the quick banner i whip up.
