Random Updates

As some may already know, I have been working out at the gym these past few days cos I signed up for their trial sessions.

The first two were super fun and enjoyable, which made me decide to become their permanent member, as in, FOREVER and EVER. *ahahah*

My little cute member card:

So for now, I can workout at the gym as and when I like cos it's UNLIMITED access!!

Although the gym is located at Tanjong Pagar, I dun seem to mind the distance. I mean, after travelling back and forth from Pasir Ris to Boon Lay, Tanjong Pagar is nothing to me. Peanuts.

But then! I was told that they are going to open another branch IN THE EAST soon!!!

Even better, they're looking at either PASIR RIS or TAMPINES!!!

Oh gosh, I'm so excited la! I can hardly wait!!!

So until the new outlet is open (I'm hoping it's at Pasir Ris!), I will have to continue to travel to Amoy Street. *shrugs dismissively*

And needless to say, the need to get sportswear seems more important now than getting formal wear for my school experience.

So far I've spent like over a hundred getting stuff like NIKE and FBT shirts, shorts, sports bra and even a shoe bag. *gasps*

My pay! Faster come can!!!

The aftermath of changing my personal particulars, i.e. my name, is very mafan.

I have to get a new IC, which I have gotten it. But I totally forgot to replace my passport as well! *urgh*

So I had to make a trip down again to get it done. Luckily there's no need to get a new passport and pay another hefty sum.

They just chopped an observation chop in my passport stating that they have endorsed the new name. And it's absolutely free! *whew!* So the most important thing is done.

Now, I need to inform the relevant government bodies (CPF board, MOE, etc.) as well as the banks.

Sigh.

There's so much to do! Thank GYM as I have the time now to settle these miscellaneous stuff. =)

I've gotten back my results! It's absolutely a HUGE RELIEF.

And yup, I'm quite happy and contented with it cos I didnt expect such grades. My GPA has inched a little forwards!

This means that I must go to GYM soon and thank her for blessing me. *wide grinz*

Tuition.

It's.... *URGH + grabs hair*

Frustrating.

A few sessions ago, I've finally lost my temper. No frets, I did not scold her harshly or something along the line.

In fact, I told her, rather calmly, some da dao li (trying to be reasonable here) to make her understand my pain and tiredness.

She kept silent all the while, nodding at times.

Okie, nvm. I've said all I can say, so it's up to her now.

And when I met her again for the next lesson, she seemed to have improve slightly.

It's like my words had hit some sense into her.

So I was pretty happy, naively thinking that she has decided to strive for the better. So the decision to talk to her mum (or more likely, to complain!) on that day was put off cos I wanna give her one more chance.

But apparently, good things do not last long.

She reverted back to her old self again.

I absolutely cannot take it cos she's not putting in any effort! She's not paying attention...and...and just not paying attention!

In fact, I just had one amusing + frustrating lesson with her today.

She showed me her exam scripts and report book. *BIG SIGH*

At the end of it, I finally approached her mother, and I explained to her the situation. Luckily she understands my pain and torment. I can feel her anxiety and desire to want to see her daughter do well, but sometimes, some things just cannot be forced.

I dunno if it's quite late already (the tuition ended at 9.30pm, and we talked till 10pm) and the mum is tired, or she's really upset and frustrated, because her eyes suddenly became watery while she talked.

I'm sooooo scared tt she'll breakdown in front of me and start to wail. I dun think I can handle that kind of situation. *tsk tsk*

So I sort of quickly ended off the conversation and left. *hee*

I feel bad for her, though.

What if next time my kid/s (if I ever have one) is/are like that? Like cannot study type? HOW?!?!?

Tomorrow is Bah Zang Day aka Dumpling Festival.

I shall be a good girl and help my mother wrap the dumplings.

She's amazing lah...she prepared and cooked ALL the ingredients for Nonya Zang, Bah Zang and Tao Sar Zang when I was out tuition-ing just now. And dun play play, all the ingredients amount to 5kg or more okie! *salutes to the woman*

So tomorrow is just wrap, wrap, wrap, and steam, steam, steam, and bai bai bai, and then can eat le.

*excited*
