PSLE!!! :(

In a matter of weeks (I think), the Pri 6 students will start their PSLE exams. This has to be the most important exam to every kid in Singapore. I remember going through the whole process... Everyday was "Studying Day" for me. My teachers kept reminding us to study and study because all of our knowledge is tested in this crucial examination.

During the days of PSLE exams, it was EXTREMELY nerve-wrecking! My heart was beating fast when I was waiting for the exam papers to be passed out. And when the test ended, a wave of relief goes through my body. However, the thing that I remember most was when PSLE officially ended. After the Science paper, everyone celebrated. It felt like a HUGE burden lifted off my shoulders. Parties followed after..... I'm sure everybody felt this before.....

What's the purpose of this post? Well, I would have to say that this post is dedicated to chloe. PSLE is coming and I know how she feels at this stage. All the pressure and stress, all because of this exam.

If you do read this, I want to wish you well in your PSLE. Hope you pass with flying colours~!

12 Apostles (and my family)

Another long car ride journey... to the Great Ocean Road. This time, I won't be writing any story because it would take up a lot of time... So... here are the pics my Dad took...

4 Months Left...

Well... There's exactly 4 months left to Singapore. With that little time left, I want to plan what I'm going to do there. There are a few suggestions which I've already planned out, such as meeting up with friends, etc. But more importantly, I want to spend time with my relatives. Any suggestions to what we could all do when we go there??

Haha... =D

Three engineers and three accountants are traveling by train to a conference.

At the station, the three accountants each buy tickets and watch as the three engineers buy only a single ticket.

"How are three people going to travel on only one ticket?" asks an accountant.

"Watch and you'll see," answers an engineer. They all board the train.

The accountants take their respective seats but all three engineers cram into a restroom and close the door behind them.

Shortly after the train has departed, the conductor comes around collecting tickets. He knocks on the restroom door and says, "Ticket, please."

The door opens just a crack and a single arm emerges with a ticket in hand. The conductor takes it and moves on.

The accountants saw this and agreed it was quite a clever idea.

So after the conference, the accountants decide to copy the engineers on the return trip and save some money (being clever with money, and all).

When they get to the station they buy a single ticket for the return trip.

To their astonishment, the engineers don't buy a ticket at all.

"How are you going to travel without a ticket?" says one perplexed accountant.

"Watch and you'll see," answers an engineer.

When they board the train the three accountants cram into a restroom and the three engineers cram into another one nearby. The train departs.

Shortly afterward, one of the engineers leaves his restroom and walks over to the restroom where the accountants are hiding.

He knocks on the door and says, "Ticket, please."
