Braces is now within my reach in 2 months time....

5108100 seconds to Bogus to Bubbly

It seems that there's hope after all. There's a chance that I might get the perfect straight teeth I always want to own. I took the initiative to borrow books on braces when I went to the library today with my mother. The only book that was available was "Papa, I want braces". It was more of the book with some cartoon by the author. It might be mistaken as a picture book for those young children but the numbers of words inside is certainly more than those children is able to cope with.

After all that, I went to check up on how much money I have in my bank account. I still have $4800+. That should be enough right? Those money were my savings...I guess they can be counted as my own money right? I hope that $4800+ will be able to cover the whole braces treatment.

I had went to several dental clinics near my house, trying to find the least expensive with best services. It seems that I will go to the choosen clinic on 11 November, right after my very last paper for "O" Levels. Gosh! I suppose I wouldn't experience much pain on that day as the orthodontist will just take X-Ray and molds of my teeth...I think that I will need to extract several teeth as it's simply too crowded.

Oh GOSH!

I can't help thinking about it!

Will it hurt a lot?

I hope that the discomfort level will be at its minimum!

Or I will find that I have extremely high tolerance level!

I had found a picture of a patient with condition that was quite similar like mine.

Below:The patient's teeth with condition that's extremely similar(almost same)to mine.


I read on and found out that that particular patient had to extract two teeth from his upper jaw. I suppose it must be those which are like vampire fangs...at least I am better than some who needs to extract 8 teeth or more! I will simply die from horror!

*Frets*

☆~♥Released of "O" Level Chinese Language Results♥~☆

5975730 seconds to Bogus to Bubbly.

This day had finally came. To think that I was still tossing and turning on my bed yesterday, unable to sleep. Was it due to me worrying about my results or because of the fact that it was too hot for me to fall asleep? That does not matter now. Not to me at least.

Today was a day filled with anxiety. Everyone was especially restless and were all wondering (or perhaps worrying?) about their "O" Level Mother Tongue which would be released at 1.40pm right after school. The lessons we went through without totally paying 100% attention to what the teachers were saying. The last lesson, which was supposed to be CDP, was the most horrible. Apparently, the teachers were instructed to stop all CDP lessons and allow any subject teachers to take over the one hour lesson instead. My CDP teacher was my Geography teacher. She kept going through the questions on a local examination paper. I was not paying attention to her. Instead, I was watching the clock. Watching as the seconds tick by. It was pure torture. I convinced myself that I would do well. I would get the results I want. Yet there is still a tiny part of my heart that questioned myself. Could I really do it? I only knew that I must.

The lesson finally ended. It was now the time for us to know our results. As the Malay students left for their Malay Language classroom, I watched the corridor, searching for my teacher. She was late for five minutes.

Finally she came. Walking in a hurried pace towards our classroom. As she gets nearer, the volume in our classroom rose. The anxiety and fear that was entwined in our voices was obvious.

"There's room for improvement (for our results)," When she was asked if she was satisfied with our results.

There were two person who had gotten an A2 and only one who had gotten an A1 for Chinese Language in our class. As she read out the name, silently, in my mind, I was praying that I would not hear my name. My mind was set for higher goals. An A1 for Chinese Language.

I let out the breath I was holding. My name was not among the two whom had gotten an A2. The volume in the classroom rose as I strained my ears to hear who was the one who had gotten the A1. I started to panic as I wondered what would happen if I was not the one who had gotten the A1. What if I had wished for something that was too much to accomplished by me? Then, I heard my name. I wondered if my mind was playing tricks on me. Had I really done it? Indrani congratulated me. Perhaps I did not hear wrongly after all.

Still unsure, I waited for my turn to take a look at the result slip and to sign on it. It was my turn. I stared at it while my teacher told me what was written on the paper. "A1 for "O" Level Chinese. Distinction for Oral and Listening Comprehension. "

It was there. Written in black and white.

I felt elated. I had achieved it. An A1 along with Distinction.

One more step closer to my dreams.

笨蛋史可乐:爱上智商220的天才男生

6261580 seconds to Bogus to Bubbly!

It's rare, me here in my blog almost all posts written in English but now, I am going to talk about a particular Chinese book in this post...so do pardon the Chinese!

I had borrowed this book from a Library outlet...I find that I am more attracted to books with manga like cover. It just makes me want to read it. =D So, I read through the whole book, constantly irritated with the bad printing such as having two pages of writing printed on the same page so I have to try to make out the words, some words which cannot be printed and are in replace, a square and also a lack of one whole page which was not ripped off! Apparently, the page was left out during printing and in replace, there was a blank page.

It was the blank page that made me search the internet for the page so that I would know what happened in the end. Although I knew that 史可乐 eventually ended up with 龙天佑 and that 龙天阳 is actually 史可乐's elder brother, I still do not like missing a page of the story. Maybe I will go to Kinokuniya and see if there's a opened book available and read the page I had missed or borrow another copy of the book. >.<. The story is cute and well, very dreamy. Some sort of a fairy tale that every girl wishes for it to turn into a reality...including me. \(^w^)/ Information of the book below... Photobucket

笨蛋史可乐内容简介:
  啊呜!为什么她史可乐要听笨蛋史美琳老妈的话,去填那一份圣金志贵族学院特招生的申请表!做了孝顺女儿却还要不人道的每天减少两个小时的睡眠时间!被那个神经质学院的短路董事长亲自挑选成为今年的特招生后,害她瞬间变成圣金志贵族学院史上智商最低的学生!这么大顶超亮光环的帽子盖在她头上,她怎么无忧无虑的渡过三年快乐的高中生活!尤其是在遇到那个短路董事长的两个天才儿子后,她在学院里的日子就一天比一天糟糕!本就是麻烦代言人的她上演了一出又一出的乌龙事件!董事长的两个天才儿子,一个明明长得很阳光的帅气男生却偏偏喜欢整天冷着一张脸,另一个长得比女生还漂亮的男生却是个带着斯文面具的爆雷男生,所以她对有钱人家小孩的评语除了神经质还是神经质!智商不到80的她究竟会选择哪一个智商220的天才男生呢!最终还是一张她亲爱的老妈与短路董事长的合照告诉了她该如何选择心中的那个他!

  【人物简介】
  史可乐:天真烂漫的笨笨单凤眼女生!拥有以角度折算后为360度的完美笑容。智商虽不到80,但有时也会超常发挥一下小聪明!既是圣金志贵族学院史上智商最低的特招生,又是圣金志贵族学院史上最最特别的麻雀女主角!睡懒觉、半夜躲在被窝里看漫画书是她最喜欢做的事情,最讨厌的事情就是被人说她长得不像照片上的老爸老妈!最心疼的人是她亲爱的老妈!口头禅因对象而异,不过频率出现得最高的是"讨厌!可恶!"这四个字。
  龙天佑:圣金集团董事长的大儿子,智商高达220,以全国第二名考入属于他家开的圣金志贵族学院。打发无聊时间的活动有玩游戏、打篮球、练跆拳道,外表属于非常帅气的阳光型男生。受老妈坐飞机失事永远离开了他的阴影打击,使他不仅患了坐飞机恐惧症,而且还变成一个不会笑的冷面男生。其实他内心是个很细心温柔的男生哦!
  龙天阳:圣金集团董事长的小儿子,智商高达220,以全国第一名考入属于他家开的圣金志贵族学院。平日只有两项活动,看书及跆拳道,是个非常漂亮的单凤眼男生,心底有一个阴影,就是怕自己不是老爸的亲生儿子。最忌讳别人说他漂亮!说他漂亮的话,会让他一秒钟内扯下斯文的假面具,露出爆雷性格的真正本性!

  龙正一:龙天佑的亲生老爸,龙天阳的养父,智商据传闻不到80!因身为圣金集团的董事长,也就没有人敢去查证他的智商究竟是多少了,但可以确定的一点,他当年肯定是靠家族关系走后门读的圣金志贵族学院!
  李管家:在龙家工作了四十年的老管家,知道很多陈年往事哦!
  韩元次:内心非常嫉妒龙家两兄弟,想通过掌握住史可乐而去向龙天佑、龙天阳报复的坏男生。
  韩元香:韩元次的妹妹,很喜欢龙天阳,所以做哥哥的帮凶,经常陷害史可乐的坏女生。
  王太蒙:被龙家两兄弟揍得在医院里躺了一个月还不知道反省的坏男生。
  洪豆豆:最先是对史可乐非常有敌意,但后来被史可乐的天真所感染,与她成为好朋友。


That's all for today! If you could me know what happen at the second last page (a scan or a link to a web containing content of the page), which is page 239, that would be awesome! ^0^
