Late night post.
Short note: Happy birthday to my cousin, Sylvia. ;)
*News flash*
I was napping in the afternoon the other day (which I have to do much less and instead use that time to study!), I was awaken by my phone alarm. I snoozed it and I had 1 sms. So instead of going back to Lalaland, I checked the message. It was my theory teacher.
Her: You already know your theory result?
Me: No..
Her: Do you want to know?
Me: Can..
FYI, I paid for my theory exam registration fee with the money I earned from my part-time teaching. RM184, and I was making 150 a month. Yeah, you may say "Ask your parents to pay lah..". This is what happened:
A few months before the exam, I asked my mom if I should sit for the theory exam and she was like "You're learning it and we've paid (so much) for the classes you take, just sit for it then. Why, don't you want to take the exam?" I was like "I don't know.." Mom went, "What do you mean 'don't know'? Everything 'don't know'. You're taking lessons and yet you don't want to sit for the exam, what's the point then?!"
So, I felt kinda bad after that. I was worried that if I sat for the exam, I would not pass. Haha. I was still kinda blur with the format qnd questions, that's why. In the end I decided to go on with it. I didn't have the guts to ask money from my mom to pay the fees, so I forked out some money from what I've earned in the past months. I'm the type of person who doesn't like asking parents for money and prefer them to give it to me whenever they wish to do so. I don't know why. I never told my mom about the fee. haha.
. . .
I passed my Grade 6 Theory with merit! Actually, I didn't set my expectations too high. Passing the exam was good enough for me and distinction would be a big bonus. It definitely feels good and much better when you achieve and succeed in something because of what you did, yourself and in my case, I paid for the exam fee. =) Big deal? haha. Of course I studied for it too. It's not like I can copy someone else's answers :-o But I feel so much more happier because of that. I don't know how to explain this. I guess it's like working hard, earning money and buying yourself a well-deserved treat. My treat was passing the exam. (If you know what I mean). Satisfaction from self-accomplishment. What I am blabbering... pft. haha
When I told my mom about it, her response pretty much surprised me.
Me: mi (in short for mommy), I passed my theory..
Her: OH!! Congratulations! *with a very happy tone, smiles*
I think the last time I got that from her was when I got straight As in PMR. Haha. I don't know if it was a big deal to her but that made me feel like she was proud of my achievement. When I won an event during Sports Day, she reacted differently, more of like 'You won?', usually under-estimated because of my size when I'm compared to my opponents. Most of the time, I don't even bother telling my parents that I've won something during Sports Day unless they asked me. Otherwise, I'd just get into the car with the medal(s) in my bag, go home and celebrate on my own. And probably blog about it. Haha.
My dad teased and said that I should belanja them since I passed my theory exam. I was like 'erhh'. I think I should though. I owe them, not money wise but rather for what they've done for me.
It seems that I have so many exams this year. Ugh.

Here's another different story.
On Wednesday, we (my classmates and I) had to fill a form for our Sijil Berhenti Sekolah. My friends and I kinda had fun with it, making up silly stuff for certain sections of the form. Here are some..
Sebab berhenti sekolah: [ We are required to put 'Tamat Tingkatan 5' ]
- Mengandung (for girls)
- Menubuh parti 'gay' (WY to William.. haha)
- Menyertai pertandingan Ratu Cantik (you can actually get suspended for participating in a beauty pageant. unbelievable)
- and some more that I can't remember ..
Minat dan kebolehan istimewa: [ Usually general stuff like membaca, melayari internet, menari, menyanyi, bermain badminton and so on.. ]
- melahirkan anak (for girls)
- menentukan jantina anak (for boys)
- membaca fikiran orang lain.. haha. Too much Heroes I suppose.
- memandu dengan laju tanpa memakai tali pinggang keledar
- membeli-belah
- 'cam-whore'
- menarik perhatian perempuan (for boys)
- berlari dan mendapat tempat ke-2 dalam acara larian semasa Hari Sukan
- membela anjing
- pandai (this is so syok sendiri. haha)
- dll
It was funnier when it happened 'live' the other day. When I try to re-tell it, it sounds so .. lame. Eeh. But I can tell any recycled jokes to Eunice because she'll laugh at a certain point when you don't expect her to. Sometimes she doesn't laugh at the funny part, but she laughs AFTER that. weird. Neece, see you on Sunday and lets laugh some more. Laughter is the best medicine.
School was boring today. I kept turning to Joan and randomly sing lines from songs and then go back to doing whatever I was trying to do..
'wo pei ni zhou dao chui hou...'
'gu shi de xiao huan hua..'
'I believe, da da da da...'
'bu de bu ai..'
'and through it all, she offers me protection. a lot of love and affection.. '
I just couldn't wait to get home and have lunch. haha. Then, during the last period, I migrated to Pei Yin's seat to reminisce with Nat and William. William then confessed that he copied my answers during Music test in Primary 6. There were 20 questions and he said he copied all of my answers and we both got 100%. I was like WTH?! Did we even sit near each other then? Haha. Those days were good.
