As promised i'll upload the pics in this post. Boarded 168 at around 7.15AM and i thought to myself, "Ohh shit. Will we be late?" Cause usually by this time there'll be alot of students(RP literally) taking the bus thus slowing the bus journey. But luckily, there were 2 168s who came together and they boarded them. Waited for MAVIS cause i saw both of the buses were very packed and surely no place to sit. But anyway i havent go to school with MAVIS for a long time already, so just wait for her. EUGENE(sem 1 classmate) boarded and i saw BAO JUN(neighbour's nephew) taking the 2nd 168.
When MAVIS reached, there came another 168. It's quite empty with alot of single seats left. Phew... I was right to wait for her huh. Saw AARON(ex-Bedok Green, MAVIS 'KOR') onboarded the bus. When the bus reached the Tampines Mrt Station bus stop, AARON quickly got off the bus to visit the restroom somewhere, somehow. So i asked MAVIS what happened, and she said that the day before he drank alot of milk. So i knew where he went, and what he's gonna do... Haha.
Well, we're still going to be late afterall when we reached Woodlands Interchange. 8.15AM. Another 16mins, i'm gonna say HI to (-0.5) grade from my Daily Grade. KU KU la... Decided to walk to school then XIN ROU called me to ask if we wanted to take a cab since it'd be faster. Before that i made a dash to the toilet first, for a desperate leak.
Phew. I wasn't late at all when i reached class. XIN ROU, MAVIS and ME were rushing like mad after we got off the cab. XIN ROU was the first one to rush out the moment the cab stopped. I gave the cab driver 6 bucks(fare $3.85++?) and she even asked me how much should she give me the change back. -_-"... This is the first time i've encountered a cab driver like that. She gave me $1++ back and she asked if she was right. Then i just, “Aiya 不用经，不用经。Any amount will do."(tanslating to: "Aiya, never mind, never mind. Any amount will do.") to the cab driver. So i just took the money she gave(without counting the exact change) and immediately chiong-ed to class. I still owe XIN ROU's change.
I even asked my PRC(People's Republic of China) faci if i was late, in typical local english standard. "老师，我没有迟到hor?".(translating to: Teacher, i'm not late right?") Haha, of course she said i wasn't late, she told me that another 2 minutes i would've been late.
After school, it decided to pour like cats & dogs. And DAMN! WHY IS IT THAT WHEN IT'S RAINING I'M IN MY SLIPPERS?!?! WHY? WHY? WHY? Imagine the feeling of walking in the puddle of water mixed with zillion of impurities and God-knows-what's-in-there liquid. The feeling is just...... Gooey, and super uncomfortable.

Alright! I think my blog is ready for the public as i have already updated/include the things that i have to! Y E A H ! ! ! W O O H O O ! ! !
It's been a cold, wet and very humid day. Mum left early for work thus leaving me, my brother and my dad at home. Dad bought lunch for us and left for work at around 2+PM. Acutally today i have a big plan to carry out, not really a big one though... And this needs me to travel from one side of the island to another. But since i finally got out of the house at 4.15PM, i couldn't do much which i'll explain later why...
First and foremost! I need to make a passport-size photo for my replacement of ez-link card and for the renewing the passport. Went to the adjacent neighbourhood, only to realise that the printing photo shop has closed down already. DAMN IT! Waste my time walking there or else i would be able to catch bus service 21 to Pasir Ris to make the replacement of my ez-link card.
Never mind... No choice but to travel to Whitesands to make the photo, and it costs me 8 bucks for 4 pieces. Is it a rip-off or what? Went to the Ez-Link Card Replacement Office and took me 20 minutes before i can get my card on the spot. Next stop would be visiting the Ticketing Office to get my lost ez-link card refund back. A total of $47.20 is what i've gotten from the refund.
Seeing it was 5.20PM already, i see no point in travelling to Bunoa Vista and get my private certificate from MOE, since the opearting hours is only till 1800hrs(6PM). Yeah, i retook English and i improved from a C6 to a not so satisfying B4. Took a long bus ride back to Tampines area before visiting the dermatologist's clinic which is opposite of Temasek Polytechnic. Stoned in the bus because i've already used to taking 168 to school which is like a treacherous 1hr journey(approx)! In the clinic there was a slight scene caused. This middle-aged auntie came in after the limit of patients for the day has been met. 5o OKAY! 5O PATIENTS OKAY! Yes, the queue started very long before the clinic opens for business. And 5o patients can easily set you back to get your appointment like at 12++ or 1++AM! I also don't know how are the clinic's assistants able to handle this almost everyday. Ok back to the scene... The auntie raised up her voice and asked the clinic assistant: "How could you say that the clinic is closed already! You didn't even pulled down the shutters(the front entrance)!"
Then the clinic assistant rebutted: "If i pulled down the shutters, how come customers come in to buy medicine?" And she even pointed the 'Close' sign at the counter and she continued to do her work totally ignoring the blabbering auntie, i think the auntie didn't notice the 'Close' sign which was obviously infront of her. Oh yea, there're 2 types of people who visits the clinic. Either to buy medicine(which needs much much lesser time queueing) or visiting the doctor. I think the assistant's name is Corrine. NICE ONE MAN CORRINE! The auntie had no choice but to leave the clinic. She must be really upset and infuriated. When i left i saw her shouting on the phone...
When i'm done purchasing what i need from the clinic, it started to drizzle quite heavily. Before that it was just a slight drizzle. No choice but to use my Crumpler bag to shield me from the passel of raindrops. But however it wasn't of any use since it's not helping that much either. I'm not like Donkey, in Shrek, which claims to 'melt' in the rain.
Reached home at 8++PM before mum's finally back home and of course DINNER IS HOME. ALL HAIL DINNER!!! I was so hungry la, so hungry till i can eat a whole horse!
Okay Dokey! It's 1.06AM now and i have to bathe and get ready to turn in for work later at 12PM. Right now my mum is ironing the clothing and when she's really sleepy, she can hold on to the clothing and stone right on the spot. How hilarious! And the iron dropped on the floor just now, i was right beside her. I HAD A SHOCK! I 'CHUA SAI-ED'!Alright, going to take a bath and then turn in. Working later at 12PM... See you around!
Some random pics that i took with my new camera, with some edits.
