Mid-Autumn Festival

Today is a day known as the Mid-Autumn Festival, or 中秋節. This day is famous for its full moon, clear skies, moon cakes and lanterns. Traditionally, families sit together to have dinner, with children running around with lanterns, and adults eating moon cakes, drinking tea, chatting and enjoying the beauty of the full moon. However, even though I was with family for dinner tonight, all my cousins are younger than me by a fair bit (weren't playing with lanterns but with the wii instead), and I would rather sit, eat moon cakes, drink tea and enjoy the beauty of the moon; however, the adults were all indoors, no one outdoors, and they don't talk about the same things as me. So, until I obtain freedom of my own transportation, I guess there's no way for me to be out and about on this particular day of the year to chat with someone who is the around about my age and enjoy nature's positive side with me.

As I woke up today I went for a run. This wasn't any simple run, but a run to my buddy's place. The thing is that he/she was coming over to my suburb and then going out to have a basketball game and all, but he/she was so crazy that he/she wanted to walk from their place to mine! That's like a 30 minute run, or a 40-50 minute walk (one way)! As the walk was mainly on a main road, I found it unsafe and dangerous, so I woke up a bit earlier to meet up with my buddy halfway from their place and mine. Because I felt that it was unsafe for him/her to be coming alone, i left my house a bit early, so my buddy doesn't have to walk too far alone. Funnily, this buddy of mine took AGES getting out of their house, so I was about 5 minutes away from their house when I say him/her.

We spent a chunk of the day just walking around my suburb, and then for about an hour, played basketball at a set of basketball courts near CP primary.

Later today, I had to go to tutor, so that went off as usual. Then the night went fine, with me only scaring ONE relative, with that new stud I got (fail!). We also have two relatives (an aunt and uncle) who came down from Sydney who are staying over at our place. They're pretty cool adults (only about 20-30yrs old), as they were the ones who introduced me to Taiwanese drama, specifically "HOT SHOT!" *WHOO HOO!*.

I just got one more chapter (normal distribution) and I finish my bound reference. Let's hope I can finish it tomorrow! That's the aim for tomorrow.

Quote of the day:

"The superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions."

Let's hope we can do this...

Proud of myself *nod*

I can't believe what I did today! I woke up at about 10-ish, and had breakfast, brush my teeth, etc until 12. At 12, I pulled out all my books and study material, and sat at a table working from 12-7!! thats like 7 hours! But the thing was that I was only half studying (as Lil_thang had the tv on, I couldnt help to move my head up a few times to see wats going on).

I also took some time off for lunch, and a bit of basketball, as well as shower. But all of that together would be about 1 and a 1/2 hours max i guess. So i still worked for about 5 1/2 hours!

Anyone proud of me? xD

"Honesty needs no disguise nor ornament; be plain"

Simply, lets just all be honest =)

Wednesday's used to study

Another day I spent working on my bound reference. I don't know what's wrong with me, but I can't just sit and work for a few hours, the hardest part is to firstly sit down to start ><" Other than that, I also downloaded Jerry Yan's album, Freedom (not sure if its new or old, but I wanted to download his song 'One Half', and just downloaded the whole album while I was at it).

As it was a Wednesday, I went to tutor. I was still holding on to Grub's cookies, so I had to share it between Eira and Heolin. At tutor we were working on worksheets that needed to be shared one between two, and I shared with Heolin, with her doing the multiple choice, and me the analysis questions.

When she saw me, Heolin was kinda like, "DID YOU GET AN EAR PIERCING?!" and I asked her, would I really do so. She replies, "Knowing you, you won't, but its there!" Dopey much ey? Oh well, at least she cares *nod*

On top of that, because I promised to get her something from the claw machines, I brought the three prizes and let her choose which one she wanted. She ended up taking the snoopy (as expected), and didn't even say thank-you ><" The worse part was how she criticizes its size. I TRIED and the two clawed machines were HARD, so her criticism hurted a bit =(

That was about my day!

Quote of the day:

"If you say you can, you can!" (from some TVB show that I don't even remb what it was)

For people who want encouragement, its something to help ya out!

At home, starting studies!

First day during the holidays that I spent the WHOLE day at home! It was so =D.... boring! ><" No one to talk to (Lil_thang is always watching tv), and well all i got was a phone and txting people. Reason to why I spent the day at home was to study a bit, which I actually did, for about 2-3 hrs! And also cause ato wagged tutor, so I just joined in xD

And I guess that was pretty much my day *nod*

Just got a new plan to try do about 2-3 chapters for my bound reference, so I can finish the whole thing before the end of the holidays, and have spare time to do practice exam papers. On top of that Heolin used my weak point (not telling anyone what it is) to make me do exercise ><" the worse thing is, VIRTUALLY!! Via PHONE!! She made me frkn do exercise!! ><"

Oh well, lets just hope no one else can find out what this weak point is and use it against me *crosses fingers*

"There is no such thing as a case that can not be solved, there are only people who cant solve cases."

Change the word case into sudoku, and thats exactly how I view that puzzle xD
