she wants me to take the yellow school bus at 3.10pm tml from school to Park Royal.... she say courtney take b4.. since someone i know takes another yellow school bus at 3.45pm i just mentioned that... then she go on about this long list of things... she mentions it like... 5 times per item...
what she mentioned:
1. holidays i can settle my own meals and she can return my money [obviously hinting that i follow them very mah huan]
2. the extra money i give her for holidays is not enuff [obviously wanting me to spend my holidays by myself and want nothing to do with me]
3. i can always change homestay or school if i dun like [obviously wanting me out of the house. and she still think i want to stay here next year. no thank you. and i am NOT changing my school.]
4. The angmoh children live independently since young and i have to learn to become independent [obviously saying that i am NOT *i admit la, but oso no need to say until liddat wad*]
5. i am an adult [16 yrs old] and i dun act like one. yet i am not a child so she cannot treat me like one. [i know i dun act my age but oso no need to put it in such a bad way right? she has absolutely no feelings i guess.]
6. she say she doesn't know what the hell my brain is thinking [this was the part that insulted me the most... obviously she cannot read my mind la... i think whatever i like and she has no right to control. too bad. so there.]
7. say that when she first came to canada her situation worse then mine. [ok trying to seek sympathy eh? too bad, you don't have mine.]
8. say that i am much luckier than her *refer to above*... [sorry la.. too bad...=P]
9. say that at least i have money to own a hp... some other students dun even have... [sorry la, ppl got hp oso wan make so much noise... she nothing better to say i guess...]
what else eh?? dun remember... just that she makes this whole LECTURE last like... at least 1/2 an hour? and she's not even my mum... geez... my own mother is so much better of coz.... too bad if this crazy woman's children grow up to be as brainless as her... she should just get a life... but before that she has to get a brain. except it probably wouldn't work in that head of hers.

Class is SO huge.. Ms/Mrs Ping (whatever) seems horrible.. she spends 20 minutes saying that she will teach us in separate groups... beginner, grade 11, 12 etc... repeat n repeat... sian.. *sounds like someone i know...* den we had to write a page (point form) on the goals we have for this year etc.. i wrote all in chinese.. sian eh... so squashed somemore... dun like this class.. anyway i suppose they teach in ENGLISH.. unlike in Singapore where everything also tok chinese... blahh... i hope it will be a breeze...
G: Earth Science
Go through course outline, he put us in alphabetical order... this guy with pink and spiked hair *i can't describe it* was right in front of me.. block my view sometimes.. my partner is Jenna... he ask us read and do some questions.. then half the class went to have their pictures taken, including me... came back, work on questions until bell ring...

Vina and Shelly were from Singapore.. but they seem very cold.. it was rather fun oso.. where the last person has to go thru the entire list (lucky not me)... then we did course outline and then played word games... like Mr Hall writes a word on the board, one person from each team is the representative who cannot see the word, then the team members muz make him/her say out the word, by describing at in one word. one turn per team. for the word "lips" the other team gave "mouth" but they didn't get it. for my team i said "kiss" and we won that round.. lol.. that's practically the only word i said out loud in class... KISS... how funny eh? nothing liao..
after school wait for auntie's car for half an hour.. then we went to Park Royal.. i bought 5 binders (i prefer one for each subject and i can always save them for the future if i dun need them now) and coloured pencils for Earth Science... and then i did Earth Science homework in the food court.. then at 6 eat rice there... then we went to Dollar Giant and Walmart at Capilano Mall... reach home at about 8.. then i go online... no more..

firSt DaY oF scHooL!
today first day of school... left the house at 7.45am, reach school at 8am.. found my homeroom number, then wait until about 8.30 then go find the room number... they gave out agenda books [homework diary] and some papers and our timetable... and zhen shi de, they spelled my name WRONGLY. Luk CHEUN... haiz... so u can imagine the rest of the day the classes i attended i had to go up and change my name... yea =.=...
we were supposed to have 15mins of each class (we call them BLOCKS). so imagine the whole day, running all about the building.. plus the bell was DEFINITELY not a bell... they should call it the BEEP. coz it DOES beep. sounds so... eww...
Block A (we go from A-H) was Accounting 11... the teacher is Mr Cheung, he is... ECCENTRIC? is that the word? i dunno. juz... weird.. he looks funny too. it was in some kinda computer lab.. we didn't do anything. Luccas, Bianca from orientation are in this class.
Block B was Physics 11. Mr Moroz is balding and he seems pretty nice. our lessons are in the labs. that's so different. liddat no need run here and there for lab sessions etc... he gave out the course outline and surprisingly it was somewhat like Sec 3 n 4 Physics... u know like Kinematics, Newton's Laws, Energy, Power, Waves, Light etc... but i guess they will go more indept... hope it will be easy...
Block C was Math Principles 11. I was supposed to be in Math Enriched, but i have decided not to change. i'm afraid Enriched will be too much. Mrs Duval is fat and old. she also gave the course outline... nothing liao.. paul (we nickname him big guy) fromo germany from orientation is in this class... and just in case u wanna know how tall he is... he's 201cm. so when people talk to him (esp a shorty like me), they have to actually LOOK UP... haha... can u imagine?
Block D was Studio Arts (Ceramics/Sculptures). LOOK. i DID NOT ask for this. it was on my timetable... so i had to go there. i was supposed to go to Fine Arts instead. i mean, drawing and painting would be so much easier then moulding clay with your hands... =.= nothing to say about this coz we didn't do anything.
Block E was AP English. before this we had a 10-minute break so when i arrived at the room on the dot, the teacher (Mrs Herd, another fat and old lady) was like giving out Othello [Shakespeare]. i got one and her first assignment was to read Act 1 Scene 1. Obviously others, not me, had Shakespeare experience but too bad for me i don't. plus she goes on and on so quickly about some root words or dunno what i could barely keep up. i have decided to drop to REGULAR English thank you very much.
Block F was Mandarin. The teacher was not here so someone just took attendance. the room was small and the class was big, so the whole room was overflowing with people... haha..
Block G was Earth Science. Mr Grikis was a nerdy man, with glasses and all. but he was oso one of the friendliest teachers... lesson oso in lab...
Block H was Social Studies. Mr Hall let us unscramble some words... boring... then school dismissed at 12.15pm... i tried opening my locker... it's those long long types... can open liao... nothing much.. den go back...

cRyStaL mAll...
todae wake up, had ham sandwiches for lunch... then at 2+ we went to The Crystal Mall in Burnaby... just walked around looking for Sakura VCDs (them, not me) and then had dinner at... 5+?? i almost puked in the middle of it all.. coz u see each table only has 4 chairs and there were 5 of us... so i pulled an extra chair and happened to face this adult couple...
the woman was waiting for the guy to come back with the food... she's rather pretty ba, some may say chio bu, but when the guy came back with the food he was an absolute MOH PENG wearing a sleevelss white shirt. not only is the sight of such a pretty gal to such an ugly guy revolting, the worst part is when they started FRENCHKISSING at the table... not that i am against frenchkissing *ahemz not directing this at ANYONE* but doing that in public, esp where people are COMSUMING FOOD is totally inappropriate. ok call me sick but i was kinda observing... i thought frenchkissing meant that tongues could not actually be seen while u are kissing *anyone with experience can clarify??* but this couple was like licking each other's lips and kissing at the same time... it was seriously a revolting sight, esp the fact that i was in the middle of my DINNER. *by the way it was a CHINESE couple; they were speaking Mandarin i think..* maybe a handsome guy and a pretty gal frenchkissing would be ok, but that mohpeng is NOT suitable for that lady, as far as i see it... and the lady was actually INTO the guy lor, i mean she looked happy... what bad taste! oh my god. i could hardly finish my dinner but i still managed to, trying desperately not to puke.
i bought 2 pairs of earrings... black n blue stars... and then nothing else... went to Superstore... bought shampoo and shower cream (mine's running out)... they were listening to the same S.H.E original songs again... i blasted my Air Supply, but i have to admit: one of the songs are really good. i just found out it is How Did I Fall In Love With You by Backstreet Boys... well it's kinda old... it's the tune of Yuan Fang by S.H.E... of coz the BSB one sounds better... the chorus goes like this:
What can I do to make you mine?
Fallen so hard, so fast this time
What did I say,
What did you do?
How did i fall in love with you?
ok... i'm in love with this song... haha... anyone can clarify if the lyrics is "Falling" or "Fallen"???? it sound the same =.=

RicHmOnD..
aHh.. today wake up at 10... eat cereal, then read book all the way till 12+... i was reading "Multiple Choice" (it's about a girl who obsesses about her life too much) and "Life In The Fat Lane"... yea.. dun get me wrong but it's really cool... try it... haha... but a bit horrifying... and then for lunch had a bowl of the same icky soup from yesterday but with some peppers added to it (it didn't taste much better)... plus 2 pieces of toast... then at 2pm we all went to Richmond (it's a place with lots of chinese people and chinese stuff)...
firstly we went to Richmond Centre... it's huge and we walked around... they looked at clothes and purses (which i am totally not interested in) and then we all left the place empty-handed... then go to Parker Place... good news and bad news... Good news: I went into a CD shop where i saw Hacken's Smart ID last time... and found out it was sold out... which proves his popularity here... wootx!! Bad news: i'll give u the good news of this first: i bought a CD... Guess which one?? the bad news: it's pirated... only 5 bucks... and it's none other than Hacken's Smart I.D.! i know they oweyz say support original but... aww...
we had dinner there (i had chicken noodles... nice...) and then drove to Aberdeen Centre... where Daiso is... Daiso is this jap shop which sells everything at 2 bucks... i bought a mini whiteboard, markers (pack of 2), liquid paper, a wallet, nail polish (2 in one) and a small bag... ahh... spent so much today... muz learn to save money le... but next time school start oso won't have much chance to go shopping bah... so...
by the way at Aberdeen Centre there was this bunch of Thai exhibits... lots of different stalls and then i saw one stall got TEENY TINY figurines of food... like dimsum, veggies, donuts etc... there were small small chilli and char siew bao oso... omg... so cute... of coz very ex la so i never buy... AHHH!!!! ^for those who dunno me, i go nuts at this kinda stuff^... and then left at 9pm... drove to Richmond Night Market... it's exactly a pasar malam lor but much bigger... they all looking for Sakura VCDs so we kinda rushed through the place... later finally give up, slowly walk walk den when buying drink (about 10.10pm) got blackout... later got announcement say wad... B.C. Hydro got one circuit not working... etc... we left at 10.40pm... jam in the parking lot for 10 mins then got home at 11.30pm... and i was half-dying in the car... coz someone juz bought a CD which is the original songs for S.H.E... i was resorting to my discman but it just HAD TO give up on me at that time... no battery... and i didn't even listen to it on the way to Richmond! so i was stuck with the SICK songs of S.H.E. by the original singers... and then later there were a couple of pretty nice pop tracks like S Club 7, Michael Learns To Rock, Ronan Keating etc... but they just HAD to skip those... gosh... and then the S.H.E songs repeat again... I.O.I.O was driving me up the wall... ARRGH!!!! help!!!! lucky going to reach home le... that's my day...
another note to self: ensure full batteries are installed while going on a long trip. [Drive to Richmond from home takes 1 hour]
