HAHAHAHA, I remember the Winnie the Pooh classical version!!! I can remember the days of reading Enid Blyton books too!!! I read like almost her whole collection when in Primary school.

My common test results are okay. I got no Cs or Ds. Hopefully, I will be able to do even better for EOYs. Bleh, there's only three more weeks. At least PBL is finally over. Good luck to those who are joining IP and need to do PBL regularly XDDD
I think I fell asleep during English today. Somehow, I vaguely remember Suet Yi strangling me. I sort of blacked out after that. And no, I didn't faint. I don't think so. Anyway, she told me she was trying to keep me awake. =D
I brought Yimin's birthday present today but she is only coming back on Thursday. I don't like holding on to presents for so long D:

And there's also the section run tomorrow and choir run the day after. How great of Juniper to decide that we should run on both days. Oh well. Maybe I can lose weight by running four times a week? I can see how slim the possibility of me actually being thin is...
