I suddenly decide that facebook is too lousy a platform to share things without creating impressions of the person who shared it, so I shall use my blog to share stuff hehe

On a side note, my cousins have came to Singapore for around 1 week already. They would be staying with me for another week before they fly back. So these few days just bringing them around Singapore and stuff.

If my VISA application gets rejected again I'm going to uh, kill things -.-

My cap is missing :(

Heat

OMG OMG OMG THESE FEW DAYS ARE SO HOT IM GOING TO DIE. And my mom dropped a bottle of perfume on the floor now the whole place smells like perfume god this is so stuffy T.T
Ok tmr I'm going to a place with 100% aircon

Why is it bad to not have a PR

I came to Singapore since primary one and have been studying here since. However, as of today I have yet applied to be a PR or Singaporean, due to a certain 2 year-wasting event called NS. (Many others may say that NS is/was/will be meaningful in a lot of ways, good for them~)
The thing is it is never financially 'good' to remain as a foreigner throughout these years because being a foreigner comes at a heavy price, and that price is growing heavier as years go by.
The most significant part would be the ridiculous sum of school fees I have to pay throughout. During primary school, when others were paying school fees in tens, I was already paying in hundreds. That hundreds grew to around 600 when it comes to secondary school, and then it turned to 1000 in JC (apparently that 1000 continued to grow afterwards).
And now that I'm going overseas to study, it would have easily turned to 40000 per year. All this while, scholarships and funds are not made available to me, since I'm a foreigner. Which is why I was barely responsive to all the scholarship talks in JC. 'Must be PR or Singaporean? Moving on~' (that applied to everything actually, so I was moving on with everything)
Not to forget there are other 'small stuff' in daily lives that poke holes in my wallet because I'm a foreigner. The other day I went to the National Museum, and essentially because I'm a foreigner, I need to pay $10 for a ticket to ONE of the exhibitions. (I can almost feel my wallet bleeding) Of course there are other stuff like I cannot apply for a legit job because I'm a foreigner under a dependent pass, which is why I can only give private tuition. My cousins from China are arriving this week and we are going to many of the tourist spots across the island, I wonder how much does tourist tickets cost.
Oh today I went for my visa application. Got rejected because I'm a Chinese foreigner (not considered as a 'low risk' country by the UK) applying from a foreign country so I need to provide a lot of rubbish evidences but I never bring them. Aiya it's just very 麻烦 to do >.<

change

I can't switch. yet.

Trait

My trait is probably adaptability and extremity.

Appreciation

I'm leaving UK soon, so going to appreciate the time I have remaining. Despite all the promises about coming back whenever I can, I know that even by doing that friendships would be different compared to before.
On a side note, Free! - Iwatobi Swim Club is like male objectification to its peak.

Impact

There's one and only one manga that made me cry, and it has that one sentence.
I fell in love.

Lab

Seeing that I'm going to go overseas for university soon, I started to clear my room today, so that we might rent my room out to someone else to earn a bit more money.
And of course the first thing that has to go is my min-lab. Packing all the tubes and bottles and throwing the useless ones into plastic bags brought back so much memories. It felt as though I'm back in secondary school doing experiment again. After all, my lab is one of the major influence to my interest in chemistry. Even though the experiments are very simple, they still mean a lot to me. I remembered how I liked to do experiments that have a lot of colourful reactions. And slowly all these would go away. (I did feel a sense of amusement while pouring down my CuCl2 and FeCl3 down the drain. Somewhere in Singapore there's going to be a sudden spike of copper and iron level in the waste water hurhur)
And I was also very into crystallisation, because you know, crystals are sparkly. I'm probably a magpie incarnate or something.

This is probably tetraamine copper (II) chloride

Iron (III) chloride and something..

My lab being packed.

Copper (II) hydroxide

Crystals of copper (II) chloride, with dead flies. I placed them near my window to test for humidity. And when it is aqueous flying insects seemed to be attracted to the green liquid and die inside..

chalet

I realised I've never really been to a class chalet before. Every time when there was one, I would miss it due to various reasons.
In sec 2 it was due to going back to China.
In sec 4 it was due to ISYF.
I dun rmbr there was one in JC, or maybe I have already forgotten about it.
