There’s literally nothing I did this week, that I can write here. Somehow the week just flew by and I am here another new week to get productive!

I went for my eye review and the good news is that my infection has completely cleared up, so that’s a huge relief. I have to go for another review in about three months for my dry eye syndrome which is a routine check-up. I do have to do a few tests that I have to do that day, so it’s going to be a long day that day.

Later in the week, I have to accompany S to an awards ceremony where he is getting an award. I am stoked to be going there and super proud of him since he is the only person from his organisation getting the award that day.

I still have many items from my To-Do list from last week which means my list this week is a mile long! Add to the chaperone duties I have, my week is packed. Wish me luck as I clear it all up.

Have a wonderful week!

2019 Secondary 4 Week 27

This week I was glued to the internet, trying to see which schools have started sending out their EAE interview and/or aptitude test emails. We were waiting for three each for both GG & BB.

As it stands today, both have gotten two each and are waiting for one more to come in. They are for both interview and aptitude tests. Now we are hoping and praying that they clear the tests and impress the interviewers so that they get a confirmed conditional offer in August.

Of course, getting an offer now does not mean that they can slack at their O levels. Every course has its minimum entry requirements and if they don’t meet that after the results are declared, their conditional offer will be revoked and they join the pool of all those who didn’t get in though the EAE or DSA route.

That was our week, next week looks to be another hectic day with both of them being called for either interviews or an aptitude test, so here’s hoping for the best possible outcome!

The Lucifer Gospel – Paul Christopher

Young archaeologist Finn Ryan and charismatic pilot and photographer Virgil Hilts are scouring the Sahara for the long-lost tomb of an apostle. But they find something they weren’t looking for: signs of a decades-old murder, along with an ancient Roman medallion bearing the infamous name of a fallen archangel. It doesn’t take long for them to realize that they’ve found a piece of a much bigger puzzle — and a trail of clues that could get them killed.

Forced to flee from a relentless enemy, Finn and Virgil are pursued across the globe. From the sinister ruins of an ancient monastery to a sunken ship in the Caribbean, the two desperately search for a truth that can save their lives but might shake the foundations of history…
