Popped in to blog and realised it received 10 hits Oo. So realized someone must have commented and ya (:. Thanks huey. Dont worry you can make it. Cause Nicolette told me her senior got into B3 with 69%. Thanks Nikki for consoling me xD. and yeah. we go for celebratory meal u said? ok sure ^^

Ok had Math today. It was easy. but Somehow I'm not confident. I wonder why. Issit because of Science. Or did I really do badly but I THOUGHT i did really well. =( ok finally have chance to rest awhile cause tomoro's Eng lit. nothing much to study. I'll go read Harry Potter later. ahaha sekali really come out. SONG BO! ok slept awhile today. niccceeee =D and read more about Greek Gods.

I figured my horoscope, Leo is equivalent to Helios and sometime Apollo in Greek Mythology. Now how cool is that? Apollo the god of songs =DD. Ok. and I now know why in Spongebob the king of seas is called King NEPTUNE. That's cause Poseidon's roman equivalent is Neptune. heh heh. Then Ouranous is Uranus. Makes sense.

Read something about Eros (cupid) and Psyche. It's damn romantic can. Cause Aphrodite was jealous of Psyche for a beauty so sent her son, Eros to shoot the golden arrow into the ugliest man on earth so that Psyche would fall in love with whoever he was. Then Eros fell in love with Psyche the first time he saw her. So "accidentally" pricked the arrow into himself. Then Psyche fell in love with him (lol). Then Psyche got this prophecy that she would get married with the man she met at the cave at the top of some mountain. So she went there. Then Eros came visited her every night (ok this sounds wrong) and told her not to on the lights (since Eros had wings and super easily recognisable). Then Psyche's sisters were jealous so tricked Eros and on the lights. Then Eros got a shock and flew away (lols). So they wanted Eros for themselves (2 ppl share one person oO weird) but in the end they died or something. So Psyche went looking for Eros then couldnt find, stumbled upon the temple of Demeter. Demeter told her that to find Eros, the best bet would be to get blessings from his mother, Aphrodite. So she went and Aprhodite gave her a task to sort out some grains under a deadline which was impossible. Eros knew about it and got some ants to help her (haha). So she succeeded. 2nd task was to get some golden fleece. So she met this river god at the river which she had to cross to get the fleece. Gave her some advice. and she succeeded. Aphrodite angry. Then told her to go to the underworld to collect some of the beauty of Persephone, queen of the underworld. Eros gave her some tips I think. Then she bribed Ceberus with honey cakes and Charon with money and succeeded. Then in the end they married and had children. yay.

Ok that was a little lame. but another story of Apollo and Daphne, the water nymph was nice too =)

Eros shot the golden arrow at Apollo (right through the heart) so that he would fall in love with Daphne. Then shot a repelling lead arrow at Daphne so that she would repel Apollo. Not sure of which arrow was shot at who but yeah, Apollo like Daphne and Daphne repelled Apollo. So Apollo keep chasing Daphne until Daphne got so irritated and pleaded her father, the river god to change her into a tree. And so Apollo really liked the tree.

another one was Apollo and Clytia.

Apollo used to love Clytia, but left her to be with her sister, Leucothea. Then Clytia very angry, so told their father, Orchamus and broke her promise. So Apollo got damn angry cause Orchamus wanted Leucothea burried alive (funny how fathers treated daughters). Apollo refused to forgive Clytia. Since Apollo was the equivalent of sun, Clytia looked at the sun everyday yearning for his return. She neither ate nor drank and slowly died (of heat stroke? haha). So Apollo changed her into a sunflower which faces the sun everyday =)

ok go read harry potter liaos. bb
