Tuesday, 8th February 2011...

I have many many things to blog about today, but instead of writing everything, I will just state the important and interesting happenenings.

FOI lecture in the morning. Reached school at 11am although I had already left my house at 10.05am. Last week, I left my house at 10.25am and managed to reach school at 11.06am. Why the difference? It was mainly because of the bus. While approaching the bus stop, a bus 27 just came and left. No time to catch up.

It was not until 20 minutes later did another bus arrive. Random fact: Fiona was waiting for the bus too although I had no idea when she was behind me suddenly.

After FOI lecture, had our lunch in Business Park and we were discussing on all the subjects. IF class test was returned last week. FOI, CMA and CRA project will be returned this week I think. And then Tax test will be returned this week too. My greatest worry is everything.

Since Tax test was the next lesson, my biggest worry is Tax. Why? That was because my tax payable at 17% was 57k plus while everyone got 40k plus. Jerald said something logical as well. Since that was only 17%, it means that my net chargeable income will have a bigger difference from the answer.

Thar Hwe told me that he thinks it was a computation error. I hope so too as all the things I included are almost the same as everyone else included so where did the difference came from?

When I got back the paper, I finally got the answer. It was in an area I never dream of making a mistake in. Yes, the mistake was in the exempt income. For the part: 100% on the first $100,000, I wrote $0 instead of $100,000. What a stupid mistake. That explains why my net chargeable income is almost 90k more than the answer.

Went home.

In the evening, when I look at my phone, realised that Joseph they all are meeting up in Compass Point. The outing was organised at around 6.20pm, stating that it will begin at 6.30pm. I had arranged to meet my brother at around that time.

Here comes the most dramatic moment and most coincidental moment of my life. I reckon not many people had the privilege to encounter this.

Upon reaching Compass Point, my brother said that he will reach in about half an hour. So was basically walking around the first storey.

Drama begins. As I was walking near Polar, I was greeted by Shimin, Vivian and Kuan Jie. Hell Yeah!!! Long time since I saw Kuan Jie. My first initial reaction that went through my mind was "Eh Shimin! Eh Vivian! Eh you look very familiar! Oh Kuan Jie!" Reaon was because he was completely bald so it took me some time to recognise him. He will be going for his NS this Thursday. How fast is that. Chatted for around 5 minutes. Had an enjoyable conversation. Kuan Jie asked me whether I am meeting Joseph because they saw them there as well.

Went down to Pizza Hut as I heard from Joseph saying that Dalilah and him were there and they had met Kuan Jie they all too. It was not until when I reached home later that I know that Nizar was there as well.

Lets count how many 4E1 classmates were in Compass Point:
1) Kuan Jie
2) Shi Min
3) Vivian
4) Joseph
5) Nizar
6) Dalilah
7) Me, yes I need to be included since I was the vice-chair and did practically nothing.

Met my brother but he had to have a haircut because they had regular checks. The checks were as regular as how regular you had bread for breakfast. Went to the barber shop in the bus interchange, not the one we went usually.

I sat outside while my brother was cutting his hair. Can you believe it, I saw Sarah as well. Well, it makes the 8th 4E1 classmate in Compass point. How coincidental can that be. If I were to see Yanling and Huiting at that time as well, I will certainly mark out because I had a reunion with a quarter of 4E1.

Not long later, no more 4E1 classmates. This time, however, was 2 A&D course mates. I could not believe it. WTH? Saw Arron and a girl, whose name escapes me at the moment.

Went down to buy KFC for dinner. Takeaway of course. Went to take bus 83. On my way there, saw Zhan Xiang, a 4E2 schoolmate who happens to be in the same Chinese class as me.

Went to take bus 83. Queue was damn long. When I boarded the bus, my brother sat at a seat behind me. Who was in front of me? Arron and the girl whose name escapes me. Why is it that everywhere I go today, I will see someone I know of? The next thing I know, I maybe meeting Andrew downstairs. Lol got this inspiration while seeing the tagboard. But who knows? The world is round and it is the same as how sports fans say that the ball is round.

So I reached home at 7.45pm. How many people did I meet in Compass point in that half an hour? 10. It will be an average of 1 every 3 minutes. Just imagine that you are walking and every 3 minutes, you see someone familiar. that will be totally insane. And I flooded twitter with all the people I saw. It shows how enthusiastic I am to see so many old faces.

End of story because if I go on, I think I will miss my sleep.
