My name is Cheryl Lor Wan Ning. I started learning since 14November1996. This makes me 17th in year 2013. Living in this biased world. Seeing & hearing stuff that is against me but all I can do is to ignore it. There is always a limit to my patience. Never take things fr granted. There ain't a forever. It's bullshit crap. Up till now, I still can't differentiate between whether you're lying or you're actually telling th truth. It's really tough. After every rainfall, it will be a sunshine. Things come & go without us noticing.

Once a HGPian & now a Bowenian. Once a Chinese Dancer & now a Badminton Player. Bowen Badminton, a team where we stand up as one. Rackets & shuttles? Like me & you.

I didn't say I'm a pretty girl nor I'm a slim girl. To many, to me, Yes, I'm fat. I admit. But that doesn't mean YOU have th right to comment whether I'm fat or not though I know it alr. Don't always speak through mouth. Sometimes, you need to speak through your brain too.
Forgive & Forget ain't easy.

My life in Bowen.

Well, like what my title says, this post is about my life in Bowen. Graduated from Hougang Primary School in the year 2008. Got back my PSLE results on the 16th November 2008. I was quite nervous while getting back my results. When I open my letter of results, I saw my PSLE arregate, 184. Well, was a lil disappointed but well, since that's the result, I got to learn to accept it. Wanted to go to the same secondary school as my primary school friends. Oh wait. Who don't want isn't it? But well, we seem to separate our ways. Mummy wanted me to put Bowen Secondary as my first choice. I thought of going CHIJ SJC with Regina but since my mum wants me to Bowen, I shall put that as my first choice. So my choice was Bowen Secondary, Compassvale Secondary, Nan Chiau High, & some impossible school. Haha. How do we know we should we're posted in? We would be notified through SMS. "Your child's posted  to Bowen Secondary School (3043) Please report at blablabla timing." So my mum was very happy. I was like so so. Reported to the school, hear the principal, Mr Frederick Yeo's speech & off to buy school uniform, school tie, school books etc. When we're registering that time. The very first girl I talked to was Chew Jia Ni. She was from a girls school. :D Was quite excited to attend school actually because of the tie. :x At that time, I thought wearing tie was cool. First day of school, Shermaine's mum drove us to school. We thought we're in the same class but when we reached school, it turns out to be wrong. So we're expected to sit in threes. I sat with people whom I've got no idea. But I found Jia Ni! Haha. After that, we proceeded to the hall & stuff.

Secondary 1 Orientation Camp "Start-right camp". (11-13th February 2009)
Day 1 ;
It was a Wednesday morning. The same old clique (Danise, Irene, Jia Ni, Tiffany, Durene) met @ the round table near the bookshop. After that, we proceeded to the parade square & assembled. Off we go to the foyer & bus to the campsite. I remember one of my camp instructor was Wai Leong. He's a really funny & nice guy. I asked him if there's any high elements activity, he told me no. But ended up, there are! I was really scared as I'm afraid of heights. Reached our campsite, put our stuff & we did tent pitching. Played ice-breaking & Objective Setting so as to know my classmates better. After that, we had lunch. After lunch, we did outdoor cooking. After that, we had our dinner & we had some workshop at some lecture theatre. After that, we had singing session when we're like all so sticky. We had supper & debrief & tada, our favourite! > SHOWER & LIGHTS OFF.

Reflections : Yesterday was the first day of the camp. As usual, went to Bowen Sec. I saw alot of sec 1 bringing such a big bag. When we board the bus, we were so excited about the camp. When we reached the campsite, we put out bags at one place& build our tents. After that, had our lunch. After our lunch, we had amazing race which is the most interesting. & we waited for the toilet so long that we were late for supper. Although our hair were very wet but we have no choice but to sleep.

Day 2 ;
0630-0700 : Rise & shine.
0700-0715 : Flag raising - Singing of the National Anthem, Pledge Taking & Singing of Bowen School Song.
0715-0800 : Breakfast.
0800-1230 : Farmland Expedition.
1230-1330 : Lunch.
1330-1430 : Campfire preparation.
1430-1600 : Abseiling.
1600-1730 : Rock Wall.
1730-1845 : Hang Out.
1845-1945 : Dinner.
2030-2200 : Celebration of the Best. ; Indeed, a really memorable night.
Shower, supper & debrief & ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!

Reflections : Today, I really enjoyed myself as we were so high. The saddest thing is that I disappoint some trainers/instructors as they told me to overcome my fear for height, but I did not. When it was campfire, I was so excited. After we reached, we need to perform, somemore is the first one. We had made alot of mistakes & I am really afraid we will lose.

Day 3 ;
Clearing of floorboards, breakfast, strike down tents, area cleaning, reflections, flag lowering & closing & journey back!

Drama exams (Sing to the Dawn)





Sports day 2009.
Well, before the sports day, we went to eat Mac @ Hg Mall. I remember who's with me! Durene, Irene, Danise, Jia Ni, Elaine, Edlyn, Mei Lin. That was the most memorable meal with my new classmates! We had Mc Spicy for lunch & we're really full. After that, they went to mix different sauces together. EWWWW. Really eew okay! They went to mix chili sauce, tomato sauce, curry sauce, milo, lemon tea, coke. *pukes* The result was really gross. HAHA. After our lunch, we headed to the stadium for our sports day.

Badminton camp 2009.
; Went to the camp early in the morning. Left our stuff on the stage & off for our bonding games. It was a really memorable cca camp I can say. We slept in the hall. Girls slept at the back of the hall while the boys slept near the stage & the seniors slept on the stage. After bonding games, we went to have lunch before we play soccer. After that, we played more bonding games. Had night games with the seniors in the hall. Seniors versus Juniors. Day 2, woke up in the early morning & wash up & off for breakfast. After that, we went to play games. One of the games which we played was to eat lemon, limes, apple, orange. That was the game which cause all of us to be epic. :x haha. But it was indeed memorable.

2010's.
Promoted to Sec 2N(A). So I went into class 2A2. Same old faces. :) Hehe. We weren't that close though after our CIP. I really miss my class. :( Our class deco. We drew clouds, sun as well as moon. Our names on the clouds, Mr Derrick Lim's on the sun & Mrs Wong's on the moon. The whole idea of this decoration is that, we're like the clouds in the sky. We need the sun to provide us the light & warmth & we need the moon when it comes to the night. This idea was from me! :D So I didn't know if the class like it. :x Sec 2 was pretty alright & I really had fun while doing my CIP. That was the very first time the class got so unite where some guys went to buy this, buy that & pack here, pack there! Oh yes! We had Marina Barrage outing on the 26th June 2010!

Badminton Overseas Learning Journey (OLJ to Kuala Lumpur KL)
It was a 3D2N trip with my team over to KL. My roommate was Mei Lin & the first thing we did when we reached our hotel was to lie on our bed. HAHA. After that, we went for training & stuff. 2nd night, we had dinner with student councilors. After that, we went back hotel & packed our stuff. It was the first OLJ I went with the team & it was a good one! I really appreciate this trip as I get to know my teammates better through this trip as we're together as one here, without our parents, only teachers & us. So we got to take good care of each other, which is a good thing!

Family's love, the strength that keeps me going.

Clock's gonna tick 12 soon. Well, this week has been a great week for me.

Ever had that unexpected text that makes your day? Yup. I do have that, which I never ever expected that though.

It's page 19 of 365 now. Half of January's gone. That's pretty fast isn't it? Well, I do miss 2012. Or should I say, I miss my life in Bowen? I really miss those times when I train with my teammates, study with da girls. I'm starting to miss them.

"It's time to learn how to be independent"

Saturday, January 12, 2013

It's not gonna be the same anymore.

Well, it's the 12th page of a book called "2013". Well, got back my Chinese o's results on 10th. How did I fare? Fared like shit. B3. Well. I should be happy that I didn't get a C isn't it? But it's kinda of a disappointment. Retaking that subject, getting the same result. Well. Got to accept the fact that I'm damn lousy in my languages. It's not new. Was just expecting an A. But it seems so hard to get that. Oh well. Whatever it is, I'm just gonna take this result thn.

I can't describe how I'm feeling right now. As time passes, everything changes as well. Hardly anything stays the same. & somehow, I just don't know who to talk to & how to express how I'm feeling. It's just that difficult. All I can say now, I'm supposed to rely on myself, got to learn to be independent. I shall not depend on anyone else but myself. Because at the end of the day, everyone's gonna leave.

& apparently, my phone for show only. Either twitter, Instagram / Facebook. Nothing new. Oh well.

"Everything ends with a goodbye"

Nobody said life would be easy.

It's a brand new year. 2013. I'm pretty sure it would be great year yet a sucky one though.

Well, why is it great yet sucky? Good question. Great because I will try my best to make it a great year. As for sucky, well, it's kind of sad that we all can't graduate together. & the feeling is damn weird as well. Like your classmates going for lessons yet you're at home doing nothing. That feeling is just so weird.

I've always asked myself if I've made the right decision. Come to think of it now, I'm still in a dilemma. But of cos, I need time to fully adapt to this decision as well.

It's page 5 of 365. A new story of my life, a new chapter, a new page.

Page 1 of 365 : My lovely day with my girls.

Had steamboat with Danise, Durene, Edlyn, Elaine, Irene & JiaNi. Well, that marks a great start as well. Chit chat while eating & talking about the past. To be frank, I only started to be close to all of them, except Durene, in the year 2012. Even though before that I'm alr quite close with some of them. But I want to thank 4A1'12. Because without this class, there wouldn't be a bonded class in my heart.

4A1'12,
Thank you all for being such a nice & caring classmates. I've really enjoyed my secondary 4 life with you people. This class is always filled with laughter & noise. Perhaps, when we become mature, we will tend to become more bonded, which is a good thing. There's lots of memoirs with this class. & this is the only class outing I think it's kind of success! Remember our Seoul garden date @ eHub? Yeah. That was the first class outing during June for our class. We will definitely have a class outing soon this year. Perhaps March? So please keep yourself updated in that Facebook group yeah! All the best to those taking o's this year! Nobody said this year would be an easy year for you, so work your ass off & remember to have an aim! It's important to have an aim so that you know where you're going & why are you working so hard for. Even those most of us would be separated but it's okay! Because in our heart, we will remember one another when we hear '4A1'12' ! All the best in everything you're doing & have a great year ahead!
