My deepest condolences ;

It has been ten years already .
Even though I'm not an American ,
but that fateful incident shook the lives of many ,
around the globe ,
and yeah ,
my heart really goes out for the families of the victims who passed away ,
on this day , ten years ago ,
September 11 2001 .
Link 1 - This link is a website setup by History.com which is a memorial website for 9/11 which contains many videos prior to the incident .
Link 2 - This link links to one short story about how September 11 has affected one man's life .
I think if you really have some time to chill later today ,
read up link 2 ?
I think I would spend some time after Prelims going to Link 1 and like ,
maybe watch some videos about 9/11 .
Think it's really cool how people from all walks of life ,
coming together on this day to just pay tribute to the deceased .
And the tribute of Light too ,
I think it's really innovative to shine two straight lights that shines into the sky ,
as though the two buildings still stood there .
Anyways ,
was really really tired yesterday ,
so I didn't have the time to blog .
I literally dropped dead on the bed ,
with my hair tied some more !
In the morning yesterday ,
met Erika , Shahnas and Candy to study at Anchorvale Community Centre .
Erika reached first ,
I was late like 15 minutes ?
Best thing was ,
Shahnas only stay 5 minutes away but she was late for 1 hour !
Damn funny ,
Candy got lost and also arrived shortly after Shahnas came .
She said she got lost for 30 minutes ,
wandering aimlessly with her GPS ,
we said Shahnas got lost in her own estate for 1 hour ! :P
Yesterday was a day that doesn't 'allow' studying .
Shortly at 1 ,
we got chased out by the Macdonalds' manager .
But the view behind the Anchorvale CC really damn nice !
They had a man made river there .
And the wind is like ,
very strong .
So in the end we decided to study at one of the void decks .
And oh my ,
it was kind of surreal .
Because the wind was so strong that we literally can move with the wind .
So we couldn't take our hands off our paper because it will surely fly the second we let go .
Studied until 6 and we went Compasspoint .
Sent Candy off at the 27 bus stop while Erika accompanied me to get my Subway cookie !
Craving you know ,
for quite long already :/
Hahas so funny ,
then we sat there and started chatting .
About how becoming a doctor and taking part in Doctors without Borders was her dream .
Really really cool !
For me I thought being an educator and going overseas to help those poor kids was more of my wish .
I cannot be doctor huh ,
I think I got phobia of seeing blood . :/
And I think most importantly is ,
I don't think I can endure seeing how kids die concurrently in that kind of environment .
Don't think I can take it .
Hahas .
After that then came back to Grandaunt's house for dinner !
It was a family gathering for mooncake festival (:
And oh my ,
the chicken rice that my grandaunt cook was really nice !
She said it's really easy to do ,
so I'm going to learn from her next time and try cooking (:
Then we went down to the void deck to play candles and lanterns !
Kind of fun hehe ,
Daniel was like building his line of candle defense with my sister ,
While Hunt and Nicholas and my brother (the more childish group) was like burning cardboard and lanterns . -.-
Ting and I was like lighting up the lanterns and it looks really pretty on the bushes (:
Yup ,
and after that was knockout time !
Had a really good sleep with a bad nightmare ,
but still feel rather refreshing when I woke up !
Shall study a little bit of Chemistry before watching some shows to relax .
My grandaunt said no point trying to hug buddha's leg at the last moment ,
need to relax on the day before the major exam . (:
Okay ,
time to start my Chemistry Paper 3 revision !
Hope all goes well tomorrow (:
Just loathe Tuesday's Econs paper 1 .
Oh well . :/
Will blog if I have the time tonight !
Hahas I'm starting to find how amusing adults are .
I am trying to read how adults actions are ignited ,
like how my granduncle gets really panicky and agonized whenever he's in a rush .
And how he dislike people to not be at the same pace at him .
Or probably he's easily jealous ,
that he's doing work and others are relaxing .
Because ...
He did it again .
Shouted at me because I was busy blogging and didn't notice that it was raining .
Like how would I know o.o
But it's good to experience this ,
because this made me realize and appreciate ,
how actually ,
the most comfortable place in my life is my home . (:
I'm going to say this right to his face at the end of my exam ,
shall see how he reacts. (:
