Science Practical

Science Practical How did it go? I would say it's quite manageable.. but let's not talk about it. I think I'm more depressed than ever to receive news about the auditions for music and dance for in 2012 closed. I was depressed for like 3 hours plus until I came home, e-mailed them, checked their website (wow. it's new.) Then realised it's actually 2011. But it's for diploma and degree courses....... which are.. all? Well, I browsed their new website and realise there's a lot of info added to it, of which some were just intimidating. The thought about overseas people auditioning to enter the school gates of NAFA.. *cringe* There were a lot high qualifications required as well. Not only for overseas applicants, but for the auditions. I was quite frustrated and mad when I found out I needed to prepare two pieces. Earlier they never even stated a single thing about the auditions/tests. Only now when I read it up, I need 2 contrasting works. Sigh, I don't ev...

Two things ended today

Two things ended today Alas! It's time, the time has come to say goodbyes and cry, for some Sign my autograph book Would you please? The memories clicked in the pen, neatly swivelled on paper for their friends For times flies, And our train rides have arrived we get on But one thing to add before we get on the train Before we part filled with hope we'd meet again A great time I had spent here in the sheltering walls of PL Thank you my friends, for your company, All the best for your Os, & do it well! :D :D :D ~ Today marks the END of the - nearly - 4 years of my life as a PL lite. I didn't cry, neither am I surprised about that. Well, we'd still be seeing each other during our O lvl papers which is pretty soon .... :s And besides, there's cambridge dinner after that(: Oh right! yeah, that, cambridge dinner = prom. It's somewhere in orchard and the theme's PL Oscar's. or without that " 's ". Well, we had the baccalaureate service and m...

Events of today

Bored to tears I probably didn't see this coming .. At first I had a crazy-whacked dream about me buying m&ms in some small translucent, coloured, shiny and heart-shaped casing.. and funny there was some ball stuff inside =.= Then suddenly the scene changed to some meeting scene. It was just three people - me and some girl sitting across me and Ben sitting beside me. Apparently, Ben seemed like statue in there :p Hmm.. then for somewhat reason I got mad at the girl, got up, walked over, threw all the m&ms - which was suprisingly a lot - and stomped back, slumping into my chair. Then I became irritated when I heard barking and in the dream it was someone knocking hard on the door.... Then I woke up, orlie was barking -.- bleh. Well, I ate mi goreng (the instant noodle one) and a slice of strawberry shortcake (yum!) for lunch while watching tv and doing a math :p Did pretty well today, completed quite a number of questions! :D Did some physics questions too. Had dinner with m...

Sweet 16

Sweet 16 Really wanna thank you guys (Ben, Regina, Zoey, Amabel, Jelene & all my other friends) for remembering my birthday and really surprising me with all the gifts :D :D It's the first time I've received such a humongous bear to hug (hehe thanks dear :D), first time I've tasted Ben's mom's delicious butter cake, first time that my two dear friends (Zoey & Regina) surprised me with gifts and my favourite strawberry shortcake right at my doorstep and first time that my two other dear friends (Amabel & Jelene) organised a baking session and surprised me with a pair of sneakers! yay! I can throw away my old one already :p I'm really so thankful to have you guys and not forgeting the others who did remember my birthday and wished me. I feel so fortunate and blessed.. To see you guys doing all these, I just see God's love flowing through you guys as it's part of a way of God giving me my special present on my Sweet 16th birthday. I really appr...

Held close

Held close Held close For all that's worth Burying my nose Partially concealing my mirth Time standing still As I hear the heavy-to-light thumps All of it is real It Is real, It is Autumn Grasping tightly, Taking a deep breath in And letting it out shakily Thoughts of chagrin running through my mind Eyes closed, Removing the frowns My body in repose But felt like breaking down Flying and out What's this all about? The thumps I was hearing but now feeling Within me That little creature hides Haunting me consistently But its words I will not abide For where all lust lies Away with them This time, right here, right now, time flies.. Being loved , where I am Held close in your arms. CHECKMATE! Yumeitto .

God's realness to me.. Worthy to be praised.

God's realness to me.. Worthy to be praised. As you guys might've already known, yesterday was the release of the GCE O level Chinese results. It was also the start of my prelim 2 and I had English yesterday. All that'd happened really made me feel God's presence & guidance . Well, to start off the day yesterday, I had my English paper 1. It was very first time I had written a compo that I felt was good + good handwriting! Very satisfied with that! :D Well, the topic I chose was " Time ". I wrote a typical story of passing time etc, with relation to my major exams and so on. Well, as I read that title, the first thing that came to my mind was, "Things will come to pass." And indeed it did. I felt that God was speaking to me right at that moment. No, it wasn't just an idea on what to write about, but more of an encouragement . Compre and summary was next. It was like the first time I could actually answer the vocab questions with som...

Clown

Clown Aw man.. I actually woke up early in the morning today.. Got dressed, headed out and for school.. Got out the lift, walked, my neighbour - uncle low - was surprised and asked if I really had school.. Then I was like.. omg.. yesterday was national day right?? =.= erm.. better call up my classmates to check. SO. I got into the car, called up many friends and finally guofang picked up and said, "no, I don't think so...." OH MY GOSH ... Uncle low would still be there if I were to head back right now. so embarrassing ): My mom alighted me somewhere further away from my void deck and I walked to the nearest staircase, walked up to 5th floor and took the lift up. Thanks, I met my other neighbour - who was one of the few whom I actually felt comfortable talking to - and he asked me if I was heading for school. And I said er... actually, I just found out there's no school today. And laughed pretty much sarcastically over that statement I made. He laughed too. And ...

Thoughts

My thoughts of the day.. expressed in music .. The very songs I happen to have heard on my ipod.. at the right moments.. The last song is 'Leaving', also by Corrinne May. If you've got the track do go listen to it yeah. It has the freedom feeling.. and the highlight of that song, the line that keep running through my mind, "I'm leaving this path behind". And I think that's something I've to work on at this moment. I've to leave it behind and, trusting in God, walk forward. Listen to those lyrics in the first three videos. I think they're very meaningful.. very.. meaningful.

There is nothing

There is nothing Verse 1: Lord I come before You To honor and adore You For who You are and all that You have done Lord I am not worthy My heart is dark and dirty Still somehow You bid for me to come Pre-Chorus: So clothe me in humility Remind me, that I come before a King Chorus: And there is nothing There is nothing More precious, more worthy May I gaze deeper May I stand longer May I press onward to know You Lord Verse 2: May our time be sweeter May I be a keeper Of the promises I make to You in song Lord may I remember these moments of surrender And live my life this way from this day on Pre-Chorus: So clothe me in humility Remind me, that I come before a King Chorus: And there is nothing There is nothing More precious, more worthy May I gaze deeper May I stand longer May I press onward to know You Lord Pre-Chorus: So clothe me in humility Remind me that I come before a King Chorus: And there is nothing There is nothing More precious, more worthy May I gaze deeper May I stand longe...

Sickness begone!

Sickness begone! Last week was down with a fever, bad headache and sore throat. As soon as I recovered from the fever and bad headache, my sore throat persisted and soon my throat had white spots (I heard it's due to the infection). Apparently, my doc said I had a weak throat.. Oh well.. Can't do awl role for now I guess :\ So now I'm currently on medication for 10 days max (about 2 weeks). Hopefully by then, I'd recover so it wouldn't hinder me in my performance during my english oral on 18 aug! :s ohoh, and the start of my prelim paper 2. English. I think. With prelim 1 over, school's really changed. I mean, my schedule and all. It's revision after revision after revision.. oh wait, nonono.. Test papers after test papers after test papers :s I'll surely NEVER forget this year :s They're seriously blasting us with e math and a math and geog and sciencesss papers!!!! gahhhhh :s And quizzes every week. Gonna be having one on monday (is that tmr? I thi...

Haven't been sick for a long time..

Haven't been sick for a long time.. Not that I want to, of course. I've always been prone to getting a cold or sinus infections during the monsoon periods when the temperature and rainfall changes with extreme temperatures/rainfall every day.. Gahh.. don't like those periods. Had to bring tissue around with me - at least 3 packets of tissue . This time it's some virus.. Don't know what it is, but my mom got it first then spread to me =.= Apparently, my dad and my sis are fine, so it probably could've been something only my mom and I ate around the same time. Cos she was sick the night before already, I was sick the next morning, when my mom had a high temp of 38.7 d.c. :s And she still went out to buy bao for breakfast, saying she needed to get something to eat so she can take her medication (just panadol cos she didn't see the doc then.. yet) my mom's really strong.. I think if I were to have that high temperature, I wouldn't even be able to get out...

Change In The Making There’s a better version of me That I can’t quite see But things are gonna change Right now I’m a total mess and Right now I’m completely incomplete But things are gonna change Cause you’re not through with me yet This is redemption’s story With every step that I'm taking Every day, you’re chipping away What I don’t need This is me under construction This is my pride being broken And every day I’m closer to who I’m meant to be I'm a change in the making Wish I could live more patiently Wish I could give a little more of me Without stopping to think twice Wish I had faith like a little child Wish I could walk a single mile Without tripping on my own feet But you’re not through with me yet And this is redemption’s story With every step that I'm taking And every day, you’re chipping away What I don’t need This is me under construction This is my pride being broken Every day I’m closer to who I’m meant to be From the dawn of history You make new and you red...

It bothers me

It bothers me And I'm certainly not looking forward to it. Release of Prelim 1 results tomorrow. Well, some papers. Not sure of the schedule yet, but I'm really not looking forward to it. After my geog teach went through both geog papers, I was really really disppointed. and furious. It was something we were taught before, and taught to do so, and she, being one of the two teachers who marked our scripts never told us in term 1 that we couldn't - needn't actually - write the intro. of a LORMS question. We were always taught that the intro, body and conclusion structure is crucial to answering the question (aside from the content and evaluation of course.) And now then she come tell us - no, scold us - why we waste so much time writing the intro. Even after those words that our principal comforted us with.. all about prelims 1 not gonna be very good and will most probably be meeting her with our parents and all. I'm totally prepared, really. But yeah, I wasn't c...

2nd slack-est day?

2nd slack-est day? Didn't have much going on today and pretty much had free periods(: felt like a relaxing day with the cool weather to top it off & the strawberry from the kerine's strawberry birthday cake. mmm!(: Found out my classmates bought the cake from Four Leaves. Just walked pass four leaves today and saw the cake labelled, "Strawberry Shortcake". mmm! sweet(: Had sogurt with zoey after school and relaxed for the rest of the day. Well, I've got to treasure this week fully for I'll be starting to chiong again next week... not really looking forward to that. Well, certain things have happened and I'd realise the power of my words, the experience that I just had, and what I read from my qt material merely a few days ago.. it was all true, and yet. Disappointment . Yet again. Filled my heart with anger and judgement upon myself. I know I shouldn't have been affected that much, I mean, it was just a trivial matter after all.. Why had I thought ...

Clarify.

Clarify. There are certain things that I've to clarify, I have to make it right, I have to take action. I cannot just leave it there and let it continue in its current state . Many things going on my mind and yet, I cannot say it out. Things are slowly changing and I've musted some courage in me already, but yet, it's not enough .. I need more.. I need more of this and that. With the break between prelim 1 and 2, I think God has given me new tasks. And it's my duty to fulfill it, for God's glory. I will do it for the benefit of others as well. I can't bear to look anymore. I can't bear to see myself being influenced by the thoughts and perhaps even turned into words.. and actions.. I keep telling myself to put myself in the person's shoes. I keep telling myself that. But my actions say otherwise. And for this, I'm extremely disappointed. I don't want other to be influenced the same way. A little is funny, yes. But to the point of that? no, I cann...

School tomorrow..

School tomorrow.. Nearly 2 months of not having proper lessons and now back to following timetable.. Pretty weird, but I guess it's alright. Just not sure what's with the remedials though. I heard it was compulsory for everyone to go for it.. so much for calling it "remedial". More like extra lessons =.= Oh well. Wore the new blue top I bought earlier this week! :D hehe would like to take a pic but I didn't get to and I'd already thrown it into the laundry bin :p hmm.. Today was pretty short yet tiring for me.. well.. sorta. sore eyes): -sigh- The thought of having school tomorrow.... -_- just wanna stay in bed... Some things happened recently, but I don't wanna talk about it. I guess it's something I have to learn and be careful of next time.. and I think I should start finding a paper & pen soon.

Thanks be to God! :D

Thanks be to God! :D Prelims are finally over, and not to mention, chinese O lvl orals! :D :D I'm really glad it's all over and yet, can't really believe it is. Exams really drain me out): Sigh. Today was A math and I did a really really silly mistake.. of quotient rule): sigh. Oh well, I did my best for the entire paper and that's what truly matters the most :D Thanks for keeping - not just me but perhaps other sec 4s as well - in your prayers too(: (: I think the fact that I don't feel that upset as compared to last time is because I realise I've been depending more on God, which is good :D and because I depend more on Him, I worry less. Since worrying has always been my big problem, being this calm and at peace.. I must say, it is really God who is doing all this, including my change! :D :D Orals was expected, yet unexpected. I thought I was the 18th as I heard there'd only be one station for express students (the NA and NT ppl were also taking their oral...

short post

short post. Things are going pretty okay for now.. can't wait for prelims to be over!! :\ Wednesday.. O lvl orals.. I can't wait for that to be over the most -.- -.- -.- -.- Well, as I've mentioned earlier, I've been doing a study on psalms and today I've just completed psalm 40. Good progress I might say! :D And just a reminder to myself, there are three types of songs: struggling win sin, victory, praise and thanksgiving. That's what Ps William told me about as he explained psalm 39 to me. I think.. hmm.. Oh well, anyways, my nose is disobeying me nowadays. causing my headaches): bad synus bad bad synus! D; I don't even know how to punish it. I hope it doesn't affect my exams and oral this week! :s I was just done with my revision for some of chemistry topics, gonna be moving on to A math formulas. gahh.. integration): still my weakest topic for now I think. Oh well, I still got time to practice on that before O lvls, so til then, I'll keep working...

3 more days to go!

5 days of prelims over, 3 more days to go! The morning is early Though skies are not bright Sit & watch carefully The sunbeams of morning's glory Awaken my soul Shake me from within Teach me to do as I'm told Not walk down the path of sinfulness I'll throw them all away Learn to love & obey For Your glory to be shown My old being I must disown My hiding place I'll dwell in You What I must never erase the truth about You. ~ Endured 5 days of immense brain torture, but it was through this that I've learnt to depend on God and trust in Him :D past 1 or 2 days I let stress take over me and again, by God's grace and unfailing love, He'd shown me a "mini" miracle, experiencing His presence and know that He cares and loves me very much.(: Upcoming week schedule recap!

New stuff.

New stuff. Okay, so today's the first practical exam of the year. gonna be having another before Os. maybe. I think :\ Well, it was a good experience, I might say. except for the part when I wanted to wash my test tubes at the same time think about the answers for the last two qns for chem practical.. Mrs Phua then announced to us that we should not starting washing our test tubes of clean up yet. It was about 25 minutes before the paper was over. I wanted to wash em cos it was distracting to see them all messy -_- distracting my thoughts :p wanna be clean also cannot.. okay lor.. Had lunch with Amabel afterwards. Sigh. I think I'm colourblind. my friends talked about orange precipitate. I wrote yellow when it kinda did look like orange.. gahh!! I should've at least written dark yellow or something): oh well, at least this isn't SPA otherwise I'd be crying my eyeballs out :\ Hmm.. back home and watched last friday's 9pm episode. episode 19, if I'm not wrong...

Breaking free

Breaking free There's a duty I must fulfill. There's a task I am on. There's a sense of responsibility that I hold. And that's something.. something I long to do. I'm no longer gonna sit there and keep it to myself all the time. Whatever comes out, I've a recorder and notepad ready in my hand. I'm determined to do it. Because I want to. It's my calling. Even if it's just 99.99999% that I'm sure it is, I believe God gave me this talent for a reason. It's more than crystal clear. I'm gonna do it. No matter what, even if it'll take me months, I'll do it. Cos like I said, it's a duty I must fulfill, a task I am on, sense of responsibility that comes with it, something that I want to do because I feel that God had called me to do so. ~ Besides, all that, how've the holidays been for you guys? Hmm.. I felt I'd only enjoyed the last two weeks of the holidays =.= Oh man.. so quick and in a blink of an eye, I'd be sitt...

Ladies Nite! hehe recently have been keeping up with this show. I do encourage you guys to watch it, yeaa, not just girls :P Hmm.. it's pretty funny and entertaining and yupp, can learn some cool stuff from there(: Well progress for studying is still pretty okay. I'm on track now(: but was a bit shocked when I realised I couldn't do a single question for Rate Of Change.. from tys some more. It took me awhile to get used to it and finally do most of the questions :D Hmm.. the rest are pretty alright. I'm just a bit on the verge of giving up on my combined humans -_- ss...... sigh. Hmm.. and aside from studying, nothing really much to do except to rest a lot for the last week of hols!(: My mom's flying off later.. or rather, tomorrow, early in the morning.. My sis is going back too, coming back on sunday 12am something.. gonna be missing her loads): Hope she'll be safe in Japan and enjoy her time there as well(: Currently still transferring stuff to my comp.. but ...

SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS!

EVERYONE'S A CRITIC! hehe statement by squidward. Woke up then had lunch soon after while watching spongebob squarepants at the same time :D hehe it's been a while since I'd last watched that. I really love that show. Not only does it remind me of my childhood, but if there's anything I like about spongebob, it's his attitude. He's really easily pleased, satisfied, really funny and cute. He's even so positive even when the others could not see any positive side to a particular situation. Also, I do admire his friendship with patrick too. hehee they're so cute together :P Realising so many things I did not bother observing before, my mouth was glued most of the time as I thought about the events that took place every minute, every second. I made a huge huge mistakes during worship today. Not just one actually, I even came in wrong beat for You Laid Aside Your Majesty. Through those two songs, it was like a battle for me. And inner battle like the one rece...

Thoughts

Thoughts I've been doing the regular reflections.. especially deep ones. And as for this post, I'll sum up some thoughts for today. It's not full, just part of it. To fulfill what the Lord had taught and tasked me to do. Forfeit my own desires to help others. It's not that difficult. I did it before and I felt much better than the relaxed life I have now. Lord, make use of me, help me to be of help to others like how you used me before; to put others before myself once again. My actions I've not carried out. Proves nothing. Thoughts are simply not enough.. It's up to me..? but why? right. I'm growing up, becoming more independent in action, making decisions.. There're so many important decisions to make at my age. Family, future, friendships, related. So many, but I'm not alone. God, give me courage .

Shaking Knees

Shaking Knees, Another Inner Battle. Ah.. someone was supposed to come today, but didn't. Lots of things going through my mind today. including that. With the last-minute notice - again - of being co-song leader, I freaked out. I honestly did. It's not exactly something to be proud of. As in, in that way.. To put it bluntly, they threw me in the deep deep sea, not just deep, why? Because it was last minute. To put it nicely, they gave me a chance to have a whole new experience taking on the role as a co-song leader (: During prac, spent a whole hour on the first song and we didnt have time to practice the last two songs: This Is Our God and Alabaster Jar. Gah.. and I made a mistake coming in.. with the wrong song some more -.- sigh. many things going through my mind before and after worship.. but I think the prac really gave me confidence to stand up there and sing. But honestly.. I dont know why either.. but part of me felt comfortable there, but the other part filled with dou...

Intensive revision

Intensive revision didn't start off that intensive actually. which is good(: Started off with geography and english yesterday. Had a pretty big thing going on during english period. My classmates and I got scolded for things we didn't even do..... Oh well, I heard other classes had to close their ears yesterday too =.= Heard that since rivers and coast topic didn't really come out much for last year's paper, Mrs Ong decided to focus more on rivers and coast for now. We'd yet to cover the topic on industries.. but, oh well.. I heard the other topics were much more important. hmm. Still, I gotta read it(: Good news and bad news... these two days have been feeling really drained/tired. Most probably mentally I guess.. it's barely 11 and I'm really really tired as if it's 4am in the morning kinda thing :s but then again it's a good thing cos I'll have no trouble sleeping :p As for today's intensive revision, only had english.. went through the co...

Chinese Os

The Hall. Preparation last friday was pretty frantic and even I was beginning to feel really anxious about the Os today. My table was shaking, my heart was beating fast and all I could think of was the day I collect my Chinese Os' result. Don't know what happened.. but a few minutes before I left the examination hall, my table was.. suddenly stabilised O.O weird... but yeah. really... weird . The exams today was pretty alright I guess. Truth is, I don't know how I faired, but one thing I do know is that I really did my best. I'm really thankful that I had a lot to write for bao zhang bao dao and understood most of the paper for paper 2. However, understanding the passage doesn't mean that I know how to answer them yeah.. =.= Understanding is one thing, answering is another. Well, I'd decided to take a break today and go out for lunch with my friends at PS. We ate at Swensens :D It wasn't as pricey as I thought, but with the Goods and Services Tax, the cost w...

Encouraged

Encouraged. I thought for quite a while for the title of this post. And I thought this would fit perfectly . As you guys might've already known, the O lvl chinese written paper is next monday. And so my school has given us a break on all lessons - except chinese of course, well... - with chinese - not lessons, but - mock tests and a fixed schedule to go through the papers. Thank God for wonderful teachers who rush to mark our papers :D and it rhymes! woohoo! :D I know it's been really tough on them as well. And I could tell by the stern, squared and robotic faces with droopy eyelids and eyebags getting a little more obvious. Just by this, I feel encouraged. Don't you feel so too? I mean, they stayed up so late - some didn't even sleep - just to rush marking through our papers and even prepare the answers for us. Everyone's busy, but without them, I think even I wouldn't be motivated to study this hard(: One of my teach was saying that there was a girl whose chin...

Holiday!

Study time(: I've never found myself this much interested and enthusiastic in studying =.= Well, I guess it's cos it's physical geog (learnt before, duh) and it's my last year and I wanna give it my all too :D hmm.. I'm almost halfway there to finishing this topic. 4 more formations and the channelisation thingy for rivers and I'd be done with physical geog! :D well, almost. Hmm.. I'd then take a break and study chinese and continue with my prac for a math/math. Gonna be studying science and human geog soon as well. Thank goodness I started early, otherwise I'd be cramming everything up and feeling so stressed in June :s Anyways, I'm taking a break from studying now and am using my sis's laptop. And I continued watching one piece! yay! I miss anime!! D; I don't even think I remembered where I stopped, so I just continued at ep 66 =.= Oh well. It's the ep about saving the princess and bringing her to Arabaster? hmm.. not sure if I spelt it...

PISA!

PISA! Was terribly sick today. Remember a few days ago, when I said I had all of those blahblah stuff? yeah, now the neckaches are gone. oh, thursday morning had fever, but it had also subsided(: But I skipped school for that day though.. couldn't take it, cos my headache was really bad :s Oh well, extreme bad headache = fever. confirm, guarantee + CHOP! Oh well.. Anyways, I had to come on friday cos had the PISA test.. But somehow, unfortunately, I didn't get enough sleep. Went to bed on thursday night at around 12am, and I was still awake at 5. I managed to sleep around 5.20pm though.. Then woke up at 6am =.= So yes, I practically slept for 40 minutes ._. And so.. with the lack of sleep, here comes something new.. AHHHH CHOOOOOO! I managed to sleep quite a bit in the morning when I was doing the PISA test. The first paper was fully on math. 2hours of it. Really logical type of questions, so it was okay. There were some pretty challenging ones. I had enough time at the end to...

Poems

Poems Have been trying to wonder about what to write about in a new poem. It would seem that my emotion words are not strong enough for certain themes.. hmm.. I've been looking through my past poems as well. You know, for self-improvement, etc.. or perhaps even gain new inspiration from just reading my past written poems. I wish inspiration would come to me naturally like how I was able to write a poem each day unless I had tests/exams coming up that I wouldn't have time to write.. but most of the time my head was bombarded with all sorts of words that I'd somehow felt "long" to put them together and just write a poem. just like that. But I guess it's not so simple now.. or is it? Hmmm.. Oh well, shall quote some stanzas of some poems before I start on how my day went then. "For God first loved us, We learn to love others For who they are, regardless Accepting all their flaws; their failures" - "The amazing world merged with life", written ...

CP & SS workshop

Chinese Prelims and SS workshop right after.. Had paper 1 first - the compo and letter writing. I would say it was pretty alright.. I hope my I didn't li ti.. well, I thought my content was pretty alright(: The letter writing.. I wasn't that surprised that they gave biao yang for gong han. So.. I was kinda expecting that I would have to do si han instead 'cos I'm weak at biao yang gong han - besides, I don't think I've ever done biao yang gong han..... well, at least this year. The next paper was paper 3: listening comprehension. It was pretty alright, again . haha :\ I really can't exactly secure any answers unfortunately! That's cos whenever I "secure" 'em, they're always (well, 80%) wrong.. so.. yupp, not to get my hopes up high, I set the mark of expectation to be: alright . I would say so because I could understand most of the pian zhang - yes, all but one. the very first one.. I had absolutely no idea what the person was talking a...
