SEL camp

MONDAY
had diploma lessons... it was kinda fun actually...at first i was having doubts about continuing to pursue a diploma while struggling with a levels but i'm gonna try my hardest to balance both... the lecturer scared me, she told us we had to do a presentation on the 6th lesson wearing BUSINESS SUITS...and our exam is on the 15 of June...wonderful

spent the day with my beloved simply us... had to rush home to go to the clinic for a medical check up for OBS. my baby bro was soooooooooo adorable...he watched in awe as the doctor checked my heartbeat and bood pressure... he also screamed in pain for me when i had to take my tetanus shot. my arms still hurt till today.

TUESDAY
had to wake uber early for SEL (student emotional leadership) camp ... was kinda fun though..started off with a survey then to grooming classes and a interactive drama on stress management.. hafiz was soooo hilarious when he had to potray the protagonist of the drama, michelle whose an MI student ...he was 'deep' and 'emotional' and 'oh-so-lady-like' , he definitely scared off the actor whose playing the boyfriend.

house cheer ...whoots ...damn nice la... was so unexpected
Z-I-R-C-O-N H-O-U-S-E

for once MI had gotten us edible food ! we had team building games later in the afternoon... the class is obviously separated...hopefully everything will be ok.

WEDNESDAY
continuation of SEL camp... financial game was damn fun ! partrick and i got partnered up ...were doing well untill we DIED. michelle and joyce won as they had accumulate the most amount of money.

the bandies had to leave so its just me and fian in the class. sexual eduwith ms sharie ong was INTERESTING. she gave us an insight in the entertainment industry as she worked as a PR before. the class swapped stories, fariz being the expert and me being that little innocent girl who doesn't know half the terms they used.
imagine sitting in a sex education course next to your boyfriend/girlfriend...

chatted with jai, fariz and fian in the hall while waiting for the next programme. they cracked me up with their teases , especially jai. played more teambuilding games using pipes and 'flying carpets'...left early to support the bandies ...

the concert was not too bad though...can tell that joyjoy was 'flying' when we left IJC. went home and watched a scary horror show on discovery channel. i swear i was scared out of my wits that i didn't dare to go to my room upstairs as there was no one in the second level and it was dark.

JAI's POEM - dedicated to humaira
it's like humaira brings joy
especially like in the morning
and when it rains
it's like my heart tearing apart
and the thunder goes
humaira humaira
and like i keep seeing her in my mind
and when like i finish eating
i see like your face on my plate
and like i can't live without you
like you are my sunshine.......
(and he goes on and on)

jai i swear you'll get it from me one day.






baby it's you

retail therapyyyyyyy

today was a blast...went shopping with my mom and dad and sis,farrah ...my bro,faisal, has the big o's tmr so he would rather stay at home and my baby bro khalid is down with the fever
mom was craving for indonesian cuisine so we had to go all the way to lucky plaza ...felt like i was in a foreign country there... the place was filled with filipinos(mostly maids i guess) with their skimpy tops... mom told dad to resist temptation..haha

RETAIL THERAPY was awesome if it wasn't for my sis' uber whiny attitude, nonetheless i had fun... bought 4 tops, a pair of pants, a pair of flats, a handbag and 2 tubes of lipgloss... wheeeeeee

i swear to god my parents are hilarious
mom(calling my dad): zain
dad: don't call me zain, call me syed marvin
mom: ???

and on the trip back home i couldn't refrain myself from laughing
dad(saw an ad on customs): eh i think people don't wanna join the customs...so sad..humaira can go work there but she'll get a low pay cos she doesn't have a degree
farrah: i also wanna work there ...but who's the boss?
dad: me la
humaira: (bursts out laughing)

my dad also 'taught' my mom english on the way home
along little india...
dad: this place is filled with indians...can you show me an indian?
mom: man
dad: i asked you to show me and indian... if you don't understand ask one of your daughters
mom: maira apa abah kata?
(maira what did your dad just asked)
maira: dia tanya tunjuk seorang india
(he asked to point out an indian)
mom: tadi aku dah tunjuk ape.. man ... fat indian man (points out at a fat indian man)
(just now i pointed out already...a man... a fat indian man)
maira: (bursts out laughing)
dad: where do you think these indians come from?
mom: i think they come from bangla-
maira: desh
dad: (to mom) you need to practice your english more ya...

my mom and dad are soooo funny ... my mom was like a little kid and my dad was like a teacher .... they make such a cute couple despite the huge age gap...

diploma starts tmr ... plus i was chosen to go for some banking thing ...how wonderful

Striving to our utmost
Always to succeed

went back my beloved kc for their annual family day. met a bunch of my beloved teachers and friends... we screamed and hug and swapped stories...when to suntec with rachel after that...on the way we saw kcp being demolished just like that... 6 years of childhood memories were kept in that building.. playing five stones and hopscotch and zero point and skipping ...those were the innocent days...
i wonder why they don't preserve the building...after all it has a lot of history to it..
rachel and i were discussing about the huge transition from a single-sex school to a co-ed one:

maira: would u randomly talk to a guy
rachel: no...unless he's a nerd or something
maira: what about my boyfriend's type
rachel: definitely no...
maira: actually me too...
rachel: haha ... must thank joyce

and in another conversation...

rachel: her mom's a typical plum taitai..the type who always play mahjong
maira: really ...i didn't know got different types of taitai
rachel: there's the mahjong kind, the athletic kind and the working type. my mom's the working type
maira: is my mom a taitai ?
rachel: your mom's too young to be a taitai
maira: true...but she just bought a LV wallet...i also want
rachel: me too..

after talking for god knows how long we decided not to study and go window shopping ...yayness! my temptation level is super high now..

10 things i miss...
1)my abundant girlfriends
2)wearing the white blouse and royal blue pinafore and belt
3)constantly adjusting the uniform
4)hearing the morning prayers and reflections
5)singing the school song
6)getting caught for wearing low belt and socks
7)eating in class with the picnic bunch
8)screaming with my fellow kc-ians for no reason
9)being open with my fellow kc-ians about anything and everything
10)our numerous bitching sessions

i wonder why is it extremely hard for me to let go of my past... its funny that when i was in kc i wanted to get out of there as soon as i can but when i'm already out i wanna go back in ...

you know what they say,
once an ij girl, always an ij girl



shower me with gifts galore
shower me with everlasting love
and promise you i'll be yours forever

had mt at the end of the day and it was cikgu yazid's last day !!!!!
we had to go to the centrestage for listening comprehension
since most of them were late he asked yours truly to go find those who were late and tell them where we were

i was about to run
but he stopped me
and ask me not to run
so i walked slowly

was half asleep during the listening compre...they didnt even play the passage twice...insightful thoughts from cikgu yazid himself before he parts.... i think i'm gonna miss him...shucks

watched joyce have lunch
jordin came later
joyce left
jordin was stuck with me ..... MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

DO NOT provoke me
i'm already very irritated as it is

mundane

school has been a drag nowadays
so i pray and hope that the holidays would come fasterrrrr...





tell me what's the deal

so far...

i feel sick....
Econs test + Othello test and GeePee Exam on thurs and fri respectively
Sports Day on Fri
how wonderful....
i have a feeling i'm gonna screw everything up cos i feel super duper unprepared.

let's see, in order to be promoted i have to have
1 H2 pass and 2 H2 sub-passes or
1 H2 pass, 1 H2 sub-pass and 1 H1 pass

i'll prob pass math and lit. i hope. not to sure about econs and geog or malay and gp. guess i have to work super duper extremely hard to make it.

anyways just had pft 5 stations yest... so far so good ... 2.4 run tmr, must prove to SOMEONE that i actually can run fast...

first time chasing a guy down cos he made me mad ... caught him summore... so much for being slow

french fries' actions towards me kinda upset someone. i think.

JORDIN,JOYCE AND FIAN DON'T WANNA TELL ME THE SURPRISE!!!!! pffft.

going home late has become a bad habit of mine. oh well.

i love my bb eventhough he makes me mad sometimes

circle circle dot dot
