Badges Overload

Yesterday was quite tiring and quite embarrassing. It was our Class Committee Appointment Day. It's when the school recognizes the leaders of each class. I am actually a Social Secretary in our class, 2A. And my job is to incorporate with teachers on planning events or attending some kinds of meeting and others... Unlike the chairperson, they take attendance, lead the class, stand as role model and more stuff -which I really don't know.

So the embarrassing part of the ceremony...

After our picture was taken, our 2nd chairperson forgot to bow and just walked away. With no choice left, we just followed her. I was a bit embarrassed though. But now it's gone, you can't rewind time after all. But my badge aren't sent yet. *sad face* They say the company hadn't delivered it. Maybe I would receive it some time next week \ (^-^) / 

Then before our marching drill, my club admin, gave me and my schoolmates the badges we earned for the last year's badge home works. And in total... I have 7 badges:

-Safety

-Speaker

-Singer

-Toy making

-Mystery

- Foot drill 

- "I'm a smart cookie" (From selling cookies XD)

And last year I earned;

-Survivor

-Total defence: Bronze

-Bronze Award

Now, I felt my sleeves are getting heavier and heavier. But it weighs as my pride :)

Total Defense Day & IVP

Hey, it's been one week! I am tired as usual. My science got 10 out of 12 and other score, I would not care...

Well, this week was frustrating me because I'm struggling on how to solve this problem: Should I go for exhibition or IVP launch?

To tell you, the exhibition is actually an event for Total Defense Day. Total Defense Day is when the Japanese had attacked and occupied Singapore. And I have this duty in the hall since I am, after all, a Girl Guide (a uniform group) and called for a duty. My duty is to give rationing to the students during their assembly. And I could really say that even they are in their first year. They are kind of immature. They are like acting as beggars and then laugh at the end. Irritating, seriously. But I don't have the right to hit them so I just passed by them. After duty, I went for my class for Character Development class.

Then IVP, It's an Innovation Program initiated by some schools in Singapore. It's a program for a group of 5th grade and 2nd year students from any schools in Singapore to improve innovative skills and to enhance our imagination.

So I have two options; go for exhibition or go for the launch of the program.

Well, sadly it's compulsory for me to go for the launch. The teacher-in-charge informed my GG teachers so I could attend the launch and skip the exhibition.

Happy and sad both in the same time. Happy cause I get to go for the launch. Sad because I didn't go for the exhibition.

Well, at least the launch program was great. ^-^

Chinese New Year

Well, last week was our Chinese New Year celebration and we had this video making competition. So I want to share the two-minute vid that I had in store for everyone to see.

It is not so good though but it actually won grand prize for lower secondary in my school. O,O

Unbelievable I know.

So here's the video:

Tell me something about it. I would like to hear your opinions.

Heart breaking, tears falling

Well, today I am writting cause there is nothing much to do. As you can see from my last two posts, I was very cheerful or what can you say simply happy.

But today is different.

I was going to my church and my father messaged me. He told me that I should be strong and responsible, take care of my cute little sister. He told me that he loves us but he is going to leave us. What can hurt more when you don't want your father to leave?

He also told me that he had good times with me and this may be the last message that I will recieve from him. And plus, get this, at the last sentence he said that he might give mom a lot of responsibilities and he won't be able to help...

Who could  not be sad? I know I should be angry but I can't.

Even he disappoints me or even fail. I still love him. Him as my father, I really like it even there are problems.

Tell you some chunks from my past, when my mom was at her last year at college, she was pregnant; me inside. My real father did not turn up in the hospital or even my baptism. He never did show himself to me.

I was fatherless for my first six years of my life. And it affected me so much because at that time, I'm very emotional, cold hearted and suicidal.

At 2005, they got married and eventually my mom is pregnant again. My sister Kaoru. But at 2006, my mom fled to Singapore to work. Then I was at the care of my grandmother at my mom's side and my sister to the father's side. Addition, my father works very far from us. A three hour journey from the city we lived in.

In 2009, my father went to abroad where mom is to work also. Which still left me a scar on the heart. I don't see them often and they are very far from me.

I want to dedicate thia to my father: Dad, if you ever found this blog entry, I'm sorry if I was a problem maker at home. Many times that I had been disappointed to you is gone. But still a deep scar is on my heart right now. Why just leave us like that? Well, I guess that message is already good bye. Dad, I love you so much... Please don't fprget those good memories we built.

From your daughter, Erika.

My Crush's Birthday Celebration

Hehehey! It's me again and here for another post.

 It's my crush's birthday!

You might not know but we've been best friends since June 2012. The one who inspired me a lot. Well, I don't have pictures to cover the post. (I'm sorry) But I didn't get my camera yet. Good news is that it's not just a typical long normal entry that you just skip (Well, not sure).

I was wearing a black dress and white cardigan, my hair tied up in a pony tail and a violet crystal hair clip on my top right. I know it's just a birthday but who wouldn't dress up for their future lover crush? Hehe, I know but I'm a hopeless-romantic type. I do admit I swoon over on such scenes on books or movies.

Well back on what happened. We went to the shopping district -with our friend Rachel- near Chinatown to stop by and pray for good fortunes to come. After that, I dared my crush on being my slave one-day mate (Lol)

What do you think happened?

What happened was he treated me really like a princess. Oh, how much I wanted it to happen again. He, sometimes, ushered me through the crowd by pushing me lightly on the back or hold my hand. Sigh. Hope it happens again.

On the way back home, I really slept. Where? Of course on his shoulders.Good that he didn't reject me. Bad is some people stared at us. O,o

Well, it's just for one day though.  At least, make it last so much until it stays on your memory.

Girls, here is a tip: If you have the chance to be with that guy, grab it. And just be yourself. Alright?

Summary of 1st Year and 1st month of 2013

Hi, I'm Erika and this is my first post :)

I am going to share my life and I think you might get interested or not. Well first I have to give you a summary of my past years first. Alright, then.

21st March, 2012
I graduated from my homeland, Philippines, and had cooking lessons.

At 16th June I left my homeland and gone to Singapore to study. And I must really say that Singapore is so nice. Then, I asked for admission for secondary one in one of the schools in Woodlands. Fortunately, I got accepted on the first try and after a week I attended school.

Whole summary of my secondary one:

I was a wimp back then. I was at the 4th top class of the level and in that class, for two months it's okay but at my 3rd month there is chaotic. Almost everyone hates me there. Wanna know why? The reason is they say I'm a flirt, a stupid, wanna-be star kind of gal.

How stupid is that?

To be honest, I am a wanna-be type but a flirt -it's making me furious- is a very irritating insult already. They see me as a flirt because I am closer to guys at school than girls. True. But I don't flirt with them. In addition of these irritating people, they always shout out "Flirt!" so many times once they see me with some/a guy. So, yeah, I have the mark of a flirt on that certain class.

I only had a guy friend to hold on to and had motivated me to go to the top class. That friend is actually, my crush and admirer -he confessed already- but I don't have any intentions on being in a relationship. It's best to be single while you are still studying after all.

Next is my transformation: When I came to the top class. This year at January, our school year starts. I am now a secondary two student and at the top class (Haha! But I do not want to boast). Finally!!! I'm out of that world.
