Girl problems

My to-do list today is kind of simple.

  1. Medical check-up
  2. Print out passport photos
  3. Photocopy personal particulars
The medical check-up part was kind of confusing.

My mother and I went to the polyclinic in Sengkang together, thinking that a polyclinic would definitely conduct medical check-ups for polytechnic students. No.

The nurse there told us we got to go to a private clinic to do it. Well? Okay. As usual, my mother was a social butterfly. She saw some other teenagers whom were holding the Temasek Polytechnic envelope. She asked them if they're going to Temasek Polytechnic. They said yes. My mother started to chat with them. Awkward. Maybe it isn't awkward but for me, bringing my mother along instead of friends (just like them).... yeah.

So we went to a clinic in Compass Point. Queue number 14. I still have time, so I went to do my x-ray. Well, the x-ray area is at the polyclinic. What?! So we walked back to the polyclinic again. Of course, we saw the teenagers again. Awkward awkward awk awk awk awk awk. Mom starts talking. Oh no no no, get out of this Annie, get out.

Took my x-ray. Seems fine. Went back to the private clinic at Compass Point again. Oh, great, a urine test. DISGUSTING UGHHHHH. Passed the urine bottle thing to the girl at the counter and I went into the doctor's room and had my height and weight checked.

I shrunk. I was 170cm. Now I'm 167cm. What. The. Heck?! I'm minus 3cm short now. I've become fatter too. Thanks, holidays.

And when I finished the eye test and everything, you might wanna know why is this blog post called "Girl problems". Here's why.

"You need to wait until your period's over and then do the urine test again."

I didn't even tell them I had my period. That's even more embarrassing.

So I need to go back to the clinic to give them my special bottle of special liquid in 10 days time. Annoying. Why did my period come just at the right time?!

Student of Temasek Polytechnic



Yes, I received my enrolment package (not letter). It was not like Hogwarts at all. It wasn't just one letter. It was a whole package. There were booklets, forms, forms, forms... more forms. It kind of irritates me that I need to do so many things by myself now because I'm turning into a young adult very very soon.

For Temasek Polytechnic, we HAVE or should I say MUST do a medical check-up by ourselves. It is really really irritating. The expenses are borne by ourselves as well!

I also needed to take a new IC photo. (They only accept those photos that were taken 3 months before this date) But, hey, Dad suggested, "Why not we take the photo ourselves and go to a photo shop to print it out? That would save a lot of money." We did it. :-)

I'll have to do my medical check-up, print out my IC photo and photocopy my personal particulars (such as Birth Certificate and IC and GCE 'O' level Results Slip) tomorrow.

Goodnight!

Granny

Bye Granny! I hoped you liked your trip to Singapore. I hoped you liked living with me and my family! :-) But it's time for you to go so let's hug and say goodbye. We'll see each other soon.
After sending Granny to the train station, we went to a house party. I was in my oversized clothings and it was really comfy so yeah. There were no objections from mom when I wore my outfit. So I guess that's pretty fine.

It was a party for a baby boy. His name is Isaac. His mother is my cousin. After the party, we received a big box with cakes, kuehs and two eggs inside. :-) It's kind of like, a tradition for a Chinese family to give two eggs and two red kuehs to their family and friends when their child turns one-month-old. I don't know, really.  I still remember living at Bedok when I was really young, I would sit right infront of the main door and eat a red egg with my neighbour, Zi Ling. She would also sit at her house's main door.

Damn those memories were so clear. Until now I remember things that happened when I was a child.

We went back home and I was rambling on Twitter about why didn't my enrolment letter come. Found out from Zhong Hong that it would come on the first week of March, so I shouldn't worry.

:-) Oh well, I really have no idea what I should do now. Maybe I'll revise. But I have no idea what to revise yet.

I'm scared to face Physics in my polytechnic again. I'm scared I can't understand anything about it. Physics for Dummies.
