The June Common Tests ended yesterday. I bid my temporary goodbye to those terrible days of cooping myself up in National Library to study.
The happiness was short-lived, though - right after the exam, I went to collect my PW group's GPP with some of my group members and we learned that our proposal was once again rejected. And it dawned on me that the thickness of our proposal wasn't even half of those of the groups whose proposals got approval. Honestly, at the state we're in right now, I really wouldn't mind scoring a B or below for 'A' Level Project Work. Pointless crap.
Hung around in the school canteen with some of my classmates while waiting for the class photo shoot. I felt guilty for turning down Sze Wei & Gloria's plea for me to follow them to CCAB to collect the tickets for a swimming competition, but that place is in Bukit Timah and I didn't want to miss the photo shoot. I have a feeling that it's these little details that strain my relationships. Or perhaps I've simply been thinking too much.
Met Rashid, Janet, Jasper, Sylvia & Qing Xiang at Udder's Ice Cream after the photo shoot. We went down to VivoCity from there and spent the rest of the day there. First, we did a little bit of window shopping. And I almost ended up buying clothes, haha. I didn't in the end because I didn't want to try anything on since I was in school uniform and so it'd be very troublesome to change out and change back again.
Went to get movie tickets for 'Monte Carlo', a movie Jasper's been waiting for for so long because he's such a die-hard fan of Selena Gomez. While waiting for the movie to start we went to chill out at Starbucks. I've been patronising that place rather regularly lately, with my last visit a week ago before church. I don't think I should actually, since it's really capable of burning a hole in my pocket.
Met Jun Jie right before the movie started. Overall, 'Monte Carlo' is truly the classic chick flick, with a lot of "coincidences" thrown in for good measure, ideal & sappy foreign romantic affairs, and crazy moments that defined a sort of sisterhood between the women characters. But the good thing about the movie was that Paris & Monte Carlo were exoticised enough to evoke a sense of wanderlust in me. I know that sounds very shallow, but well, if I could, I'd travel there also.
We went for dinner and a short photo-taking session at the rooftop after the movie:
Overall, I guess yesterday was an adequately good break. Off to meet some friends at Eighteen Chefs for lunch now before I head off for swim training. :)
