找到你，
我终于明白过去的11年，
就是为了今日的30天。

Jumping in.

There's been so much things bothering me, I don't know how to express myself.
love, uncertainty, academics, gratitude, dreams, age, friends, trust, family, wants, desires, appearances, motivation, obsession, fear, fear, fear.

The human self is so deep, so dark, so
unfathomable.

I think I need change, something to happen.
Finding myself, its so difficult.
I need you here, and yet... you stay away.

I just don't understand.
But I'll live a life without you. A meaningful one.

OHHHHHHHHHKAY.
I have finally decided to come back here to blog after -checks- holy shit. Oh wait chey only 1 month of not blogging. Okay I feel less guilty now haha. Alright, so yesterday was training + PW consultation + OG outing, and cause OG outing had been so fun I'm here to blog! I realised that only big turning events tied with free time to blog can make me come to blog, cause otherwise its not worth the distractions I get from the internet ): Once I come online I usually don't get work done. Which is very sad and pressurising cause oh man, week 1 of June Hols are almost over!! But lets not digress.

Training was with Sianglin and Allison, and I practised barani like the norm (:
Then I walked back to college section with sl, and she was going crazy over the Yamaha public piano at the high school side hahahah and she confessed her love for duets! Told her about the Cannon in D duet I loved so much and she said she did too :D Then we played a bit (or at least she tried to teach me a simple duet and I was so fail) before continuing back to college. Met Zheng Xiang, Michelle and Sean there; they were discussing PW after their consultation before my group's, haha. Hope you people get your GPP idea soon, Zheng Xiang don't look so stressed out! Heard that Queenie injured her face omg o.o Get well soon too! Then I asked if anyone wanted lunch after my consult at 2 and slacked with them (cause I reached at around 1.30pm) till 1.55pm. Totally distracted their group from their GPP oh no >< Then after that Jeanette and Khang Chuen came back from coro and the tennis courts respectively and we went to find Mr Lo.

PW consult was surprisingly productive and funny hahah. Cause Jeanette called Mr lo and then after the call she was like "eh he sounds very angry" then I was all "but Zheng Xiang's group said he was in a good mood!" Then when we saw him he was like "who was the one who said I sounded angry? I'm not angry luh just tired". Then we were all giggling and laughing and he was very amused with us as well hahaha. Jeanette was totally blur and kept saying it wasn't her! We went into some aircon-ed staffroom for consult and he approved our idea that we submitted before so all the freaking out we did from term 2 till yesterday was in vain -.- But regardless I'm so relived now! Then he talked about dance night and we were all going omg at the chinese dancers haha. And the conversation he had with James was epic.

James was late, so before he came Mr Lo was asking us when he was leaving for Vietnam as he was going Vietnam for OCIP as well. Then Jeanette and I told him it was 6 June and Mr Lo totally recoiled in horror (not unlike Nigel Kaw when he saw Yong Hwang in Malaysia haha) so I reassured him that he's taking Tiger Airways and Mr lo relaxed "I'm taking jetstar, thank god". So the convo with him and James went like this when James came:

Mr Lo: Eh James when are you flying back to Vietnam?
James: This sunday.
Mr Lo: Oh 6th June? -James nodded- When's your flight?
James: Uh 7pm at night.
Mr Lo: Oh okay my flight's in the morning. Which place are you flying to? (Then he said 2 cities' names which I don't recognise so I shall just name them place 1 and place 2)
James: Uh place 2.
Mr Lo: What, I'm also going there! Why are you going there ah?
James: Oh I'm visiting my friends there to help them do OCIP also.
Mr Lo: Oh really? That's nice. (Then he saw James smirking in Jeanette and my direction and he was like) liar. (And we all burst out laughing like crazy) Eh seriously where are you going! I know you taking Tiger Airways so I won't see you but I need to know where you're going!
James: -looks startled- how you know I'm taking Tiger? Who told you?
Mr Lo: You don't have to know luh. Even if you don't want tell me I can just go ask your guardian.
James: Oh okay I'm going place 1 luh.

And then Mr Lo asked him about his hometown and stuff hahah. Thanks to me who knows James is taking tiger cause I saw his airline ticket booking! ^^V
Hahah okay then after that PW consult ended and I went back to CT bench with Jeanette (the guys took a different route) and then I went for lunch with Sean and Jeanette! Jeanette had problems with her shoes and she went to find slippers from some random people while Sean and I were totally skeptical that she could find. So imagine our surprise when she came back with Jie Rong's slippers, haha. Went golden rooster and ate lemon chicken rice with bubbletea, saw the gym sec2s having lunch there while Jeanette was at the toilet! Sean was totally dying cause he just tightened his braces. Made me so thankful mine are all off, haha (: Then that slacker wanted to bus back to hc but Jeanette and I got him to walk. Then after that he went to bboy so Jeanette and I were talking and stuff till 4, which then I promptly left for OG outing at 5pm!

Cause 171 took so long to come (omg this is such a long post) I was going to be 5min late so I texted Ysabel and apparently we were on the same train and she found me! Hahahha beautiful coincidences <3 Then we saw Kok Joon walking blur-ly and then we walked down to the control station again to wait for Yi Teng for half an hour till 5.20. And I thought only girls were entitled to be late -.- He appeared with a bunch of friends and we walked down the underpass, bought some drinks, and went to The Sail!

Went to the 8th floor which then Yi Teng promptly went "shit I think wrong building. And this is my house!" Then all his friends laughed and we were about to go down to the 1st floor to go to the next building when we saw 2 angmohs in swimming suits giving us weird stares and turning the corner so being the smart guy that he is Yi Teng followed them. But we landed up at the swimming pool so it was all cool, haha. It was really like some hotel, seriously! There were like gyms and spas and jacuzzis and all sorts of pools and there were even exercise machines in the pool o.o We (Ysabel and Kok Joon and I) slacked around while the guys went wild with tennis balls and getting wet without an extra change of clothes cause we were waiting for Pei Shan, Sheryl and belinda. Then at 6+ they came so we went to changeeee! And we pulled Pei Shan into the water though she didn't have extra clothes muahahhaha and she totally took revenge and pulled everyone in too! Sheryl couldn't come in though cause she was inconvenienced and Kok Joon and no change of clothes (and was the only guy from our OG besides Yi Teng but he was with his friends) so I got them to talk and everything haha.

Then Pei Shan had this fantastic idea which includes someone sitting on her shoulders and another pair doing the same thing and the people on top trying to push the other down. But it was damn fail cause we couldn't get up on anyone's shoulders HAHAHAH. Was trying to get up on Ysabel but >< Then the guys proposed playing water polo with them (I mean, half the guys are from polo or something) so we split - Belinda and I with Yi Teng's team, Ysabel and Pei Shan with Bryan's team - and we started! It was damn fun ahahah at first we girls couldn't recognise any guys besides Yi Teng and Bryan ._. then I started knowing who's Jerry (I think), Brandon, Shannon and Chee Shuan. Hahah not bad for someone who fails with names and faces. Stupid Bryan scammed me once into throwing him the ball ._. Not sure when we started playing but we ended at around 8 and we went to wash up and change back, and then the pizzas came!

Yi Teng went bonkers with the ordering I swear. He ordered like 8 large pizzas or something, then in the end left 2 boxes -.- While eating we played cards, split into 2 groups! There was all the girls minus sheryl, bryan and brandon on 1 circle, and the rest of the guys at the other. Played and ate till around 9+ and we started clearing up the place and dawdled down to the MRT while Pei Shan and Belinda were freaking out about being killed by their mums opps >< We reached the mrt at 10.15pm or something and Pei Shan was like. "Well done, my curfew is at 10." Hahhaha then we split into the green line red line groups and Yi Teng, Bryan, Kok Joon, Sheryl, Ysabel and I went towards the Jurong East via Woodlands direction. Can't remember who was going towards Marina Bay O_O

Bryan was looking damn pale and sian and pissed o.o
He left with Yi Teng and Kok Joon at Dhoby Ghaut, Ysabel left at Newton, and Sheryl at Yio Chu Kang. Reached home, wanted to bathe and sleep, but my dad told me mummy was dying with some work so I bathed and helped her with vouchers and what not till 1+ :/
I am totally fillal unlike my sister. And my brother reached home at 12.30, he's damn epic.

OKAY so that's the end of my long long post!
Had so much fun yesterday yay! Annueh 23'2010 forever <3

After ~~6 weeks (fine maybe not)~~ 3 weeks non-stop of studying and doing homework and chionging PI and everything else that came along with T2W3 till T2W6, it is really a relief to be having a long weekend today. I cannot describe how good it is to be able to know that you'll be able to sleep in and wake up late tomorrow and not for 2 nights, but 3 nights in a row (:

But even then, we're not let off, of course. Loads of tutorials and PW to do, but the PW bit is sort of due to my own procrastination so I'm really hoping I can survive. Regardless! Just really glad to be able to have the chance to come up here and rant a bit, haha.

I crashed my first econs lecture this previous thursday with Ming Wei! Saw loads of stuff haha. And I learnt econs for the 1st time in my life as well, positive and negative externalities as well as demerit goods! I think I got it, but of course I can't be sure. I saw James on the hall of fame as well, haha. Maybe next time when I'm feeling not-so-tired I can go crash with s63 people in lt3 rather than lt2 :D

And I passed my first lit essay and first lit test of the YEAR, its really making me feel motivated and that all the stress I went through was worth it. But of course it wasn't a good mark so I need to keep working harder!

Little things like this make jc more endurable, as well as crap sessions with Josie and Michelle about adultery and being lesbian hehe. Anw going to plan my schedule for the weekends now before crashing into bed, so tataaaaaaaaaa.

Dear sleep, I know we had problems when I was younger, but now I love you ♥

2010-04-19T18:39:00.007+08:00

Its how I feel change coming through..
The way you turn away from me to talk to another
The manner in which you ignore me
The tone you use to talk to another as to the one you use on me.

Its precisely why I feel that..
I no longer hold importance in your heart
I am just a mere friend to you now
I have already lost you.

But even still, I can't wish but hope that I'm reading the signs wrongly, that I am being paranoid, that nothing has changed, and we're still good together.
Tell me that its true. Convince me it really happened, and that this friendship wasn't only what I imagined it to be.

2010-04-02T11:49:00.003+08:00

To whoever;
I don't understand why I'm still wishing for a upward turn of things. Every time change comes, it just bubbles within me, spiraling out of control. But I guess everything is different, and that you've moved on to want more instead of just this alone.

Hope lies shattered on the ground, and it hurts, yet it is my fault for being so ridiculously stupid. From best friends to strangers, that will never be something I can handle. I can only just put up with it and endure the pain.

I am.. fine.
"Never make someone your priority if you're not theirs." And of course, that seems to make your life a happier one if you have your friendship returned and all. But if you still want it back as how it was last time, does this still apply?

Okay I'm rambling.

2010-03-27T23:54:00.000+08:00

Just before creative-writing class, I saw Kit in the hallway. As I froze in my footsteps, it struck me how amazing it was that I could spot him so easily despite the crowd. Though he looked incredibly glum as he put his books in his locker, he was still striking and breathtakingly handsome.

I quietly came to stand beside him and leaned against the locker beside his. When he slammed his locker door closed, there I was, calm and collected. I could tell he was taken aback by my sudden presence, which I took advantage of immediately.

“Why didn’t you tell me that you broke up with Brooke?” I demanded. I couldn’t believe how forlorn he looked. Seeing his face for the first time without a smile, the depth of his sadness in his brilliant blue eyes was both shocking and devastating at the same time. It actually hurt to see him looking like this.

“My breaking up with Brooke is my business and has nothing to do with you,” he said in an incredibly clipped and British voice. I flinched, his neutral tone cutting deep into my soul.

“You’re wrong. It seems that you two broke up because Brooke insulted me and you defended me, so that makes it my business as well,” I pointed out, trying to collect myself.

Kit shook his head. “I broke up with Brooke because I don’t have the feelings for her I’m supposed to. And I have those feelings for someone else. Or had them.”

“Who?” I was confused.

Kit shifted the books in his arms and looked at me like he was searching for something he’d lost. “The girl I’d glimpsed in you when you were trying to hide who you were. That girl. But that girl doesn’t exist, does she?” he asked hollowly just as the bell rang.

He turned on his heel and strode away. Watching as he disappeared, I could feel another slash on my heart as tears threatened to overwhelm. No, she didn’t exist. Or at least, I don’t want her to exist, I whispered softly as I followed him into the classroom. The words floated towards him, after him, yearning to make him understand. However, in the chaos of the hallway, they dissipated, getting lost forever in the realm of hurt and lost love.

Travelling through time.

Literally, time has been flying.
Actually its not time that's doing all the work, its that I suck at multi-tasking. And now suddenly today, at this moment, after realising that I wasted 8 hours instead of doing homework that's like drowning me, its all coming to me now.

Okay that's besides the point!
Basically I just wanna sayyyyyyyyyyyyy, that I've been playing around with the idea of like closing this blog, so now updates will be less frequent!

Yup. And Peishan if you see this, tell me your blog URL :D

2010-02-28T14:18:00.000+08:00

Joyful memories.

Today, I realised that I haven't been blogging for so long (a month) that blogger forgot about me! o: Like, it doesn't save my email and everything anymore )): Oh wells I guess its my fault. Opps. Anw, I'm blogging today about OG 23's awesome house-visiting at Lo Yee's house!

So on the 16th, this whole group of us trouped to Lo Yee's house bus stop (:

I met Benedict and Ming Yang at Woodlands first cause I didn't know how to get to the bus stop; thanks you two for waiting for me! Then we bused there and Benedict almost got us off the bus 2 stops early, haha. We were apparently the first ones there, then Lo Yee came strolling to the bus stop with her nose in her phone, and then we waited for everybody else: Shuyi, Xinyuan, Benjamin, Junxian Junrong, Peishan (this girl overshot the bus stop despite noticing me haha), Yingyen, Kok Joon! I don't think I missed out anyone.

Oh yeah, and Jun Rong was all about traditions and good luck and shook everybody's hand to say happy new year! Its terribly similar to how my relatives does things o:

Yup then we walked to Lo Yee's house and we were so nervous/hesitant about entering her house. We all took off shoes and stoned at the entrance, lololol. But we got in in the end and we wished her mum and grandma a happy new year! And we got hongbaos ^^V Then after sitting around the tv for 5 minutes watching some chn8 show which I watched before (and everybody stared at me when I knew what was going to happen next in the show) Lo Yee and Peishan decided that we should camp in Lo Yee's bedroom to play or something. Which turned out to be a really bad idea cause 1. her room was quite small for 11 people, and 2. all her stuff was closely scrutinised by everyone!

So then we went back out to the living room and we played monopoly.

Apparently loads of people forgot how to play it exactly alr. I mean like, 2 or 3's considered quite a lot right? o: Peishan was the banker who conveniently didn't remember how much each player was supposed to get. And oh we paired up cause there were too many people. I was with Junxian, Lo Yee with Benedict, Xinyuan with Shuyi, Kok Joon with Ming Yang, Junrong with Benjamin. Yingyen came later and joined Peishan as banker (and who both got distracted by UNO stacko which will be further elaborated on later).

So um there were many fun moments! Like eg. selling off some property for 6k aided by Junxian and I. Junrong and Benjamin were the buyers while Shuyi and Xinyuan were the sellers. Haha it was totally a rip-off but after they set up a house there it was quite ex to land there for the night okay!! And of course there were many jail incidents some of which were totally laughable because of the situations.

Benedict: "Eh you can't get rent when you're in jail!" (I think)

Junrong: "lets change the rules!"

Benedict: "No cannot!"

A few rounds after that Benedict and Lo Yee got into jail and lost quite a substantial amount of rent, LOL.

Then after that most people were starving so we finished it up and had spaghetti!

Lo Yee's maid's quite a good cook :D So then the guys piled their plates (Lo Yee and I were the servers) and they sat at the sofa, so we girls were on the floor eating. Then Peishan was like eh you guys so ungentlemanly one, make us sit on the floor! So then they got off and we were so embarrassed to take the seats, haha. We were like don't need luh, we were joking! Our butts are alr planted on the floor and you want us to stand up and get onto the sofa.. Then some of the guys totally copied our line and was like but we got off alr and our butts are alr on the floor so you all just get up there luh!

After lunch we decided to open our gambling dens and play bridge! Some people didn't know how to so there was this attachment-to-a-pro system going on. Then while we played we decided to watch Peishan's pirated CDs, haha. 200 pound beauty was the most popular so we watched it while playing, and then in the end we abandoned cards to watch the show, heh. At first cause of bridge-playing we decided to give up the 2+pm movie for the 4pm one, but after 200 pound beauty ended it was like 3+ so we totally freaked and chionged out of the house down the lift across the road to the overhead bridge! Then while we were half way across the bridge Benjamin with the awesome eyesight was like EH 171 and Peishan and some people totally RANNNNNN after it and surprisingly we caught the bus!

So we were feeling so happy with ourselves and we got seats and was very happy when the bus went off really fast. But the bus driver was really PMSy and he kept going fast and slow at alternate times! Then Junrong was totally pissed with the bus driver and there were some funny incidents which shall not be mentioned, haha. So then we decided that the train would pose a greater opportunity for us to catch the movie!

So we got off at Newton and ran for the train ("Peishan stop the train for us please!") which said "arriving in 1 min" and got to Plaza Sing on time! So then we ran like crazy to The Cathay in two groups cause Peishan was heavily relied on to stop the movie (someone commented that Peishan was stopping really lot of things that day and suggested that she stop the movie) and get our tickets and I was after her but by the time we reached there half dead they were sold out )): Then Lo Yee (crazily) decided to go 7-eleven to get timings from a newspaper cause nobody had an iphone, haha. And I bet the cashier was wondering what the hell this whole group of people were doing huddling around newspapers.

There was this 5pm slot at Cineleisure for Valentine's day so we totally brisk walked and jay-walked and got ourselves ASAP to the bus stop and we bused there before rushing to the basement box office where we were greeted by a long queue. So then we decided that the guys will go up and buy tickets and we reached the counters at the same time (we communicated through phone calls). There were only single separate seats left and so the guys suggested that we could just buy them, get ourselves into the cinema and sit on the floor/steps at the back when the movie starts, which was what we settled on.

So we were loitering around outside so as to aim our timings properly that the movie will start when we enter. But we were too early and I think someone complained or something and the usher came in and shooed us all back to our seats D: So we split up and I was with Junxian Peishan Yingyen and we found 4 unoccupied seats! Then Peishan suggested that we sit there until someone claimed those seats. But just after we sat down the owners of the seats came and we had to get out, it was so embarrassing! Then we found 4 seats that were not for sale cause Peishan said they were blocked seats or something like that, so we sat there for the whole movie eating popcorn and laughing :D

After that we spent some time finding everyone else before lining to get out of the cinema and I think after that we split up. Yup, crazy times with OG 23!

And I blogged cause I have no mood to do homework, so I think I'd best get going.

Zoe doesn't this sound much more interesting than your house-visiting? -winks-

2010-01-27T18:14:00.000+08:00

The past many days have been fantastic.

Though there's been like, friendship stuff for me to face and handle, its still been loads of fun at Hwa Chong. There's this nice thing about going to school at different times every day, you know? And late, too; wonderful life!

Orientation's starting tomorrow. Its like an unknown, bringing us excitement but yet nervousness. Tay's brought me some bad news about who's in my OG group, but hopefully it'll still be fun! Making new friends sure marks a good start to a new year, like officially, you know? I think its great that we students mark the start of a year with school, haha.

Okay I think I'm losing my hyperness in blogging!

Oh wells, I think orientation will enable me to blog about happier and funnier stuffs soon. Pray that I have a good time! As with other nanyang people too (:

Peace out!

2010-01-19T23:34:00.000+08:00

Hello there. -inserts weak smile-

Okay, so. I think only some people know that I've been really screwed up deep down in my heart - those that are close to me/talk to me on msn at the correct time. But hey, that's all settled now, I reckon. Everything's not confirmed cause that's the best I can do right now. One of the things I realised after that difficult convo I had with _ over the phone is that though I am in touch with my feelings, I'm quite slow at really understanding them. Sounds complicated? Welcome to my life.

My revelation didn't just come snap to me like the Big Bang Theory okay. I've got people to thank, like Krystal. And Zoe, for offering. But of course I shoo-ed the sleepy head to sleep since she was exhausted and all, haha. And _ for trying in that conversation. Really. So like just talking and in that process, by feeling emotionally spent and wrecked, I'm glad at least there's a conclusion I'm coming to, you know?

~~And I'm not talking about a boyfriend, tyvm. o.o~~

Okay crap I forgot what I wanted to say. Regardless, I think that's unimportant. Though I'm going to be challenged again tomorrow, I found my direction that I am willing to work towards. There are factors that can waiver my determination, loads for that matter that can destroy it easily enough, but I shall try. It's my passion, after all.

My life.

Though you hurt me deep, you're still part of that. I hope you understand soon. Really I do, its hard not having you with me. Or maybe I just shouldn't rely on people that much, again. I just do the most stupid things to allow myself to be vulnerable, I guess. -shakes head-

Smarten up, qiao.

2010-01-16T23:29:00.002+08:00

I lay on the bed, speed dialing your number.

As the phone rang, the incessant ringing brought me into a reverie. Feeling numb and yet peaceful, my eyes closed in concent. Anxiousness would consume me every alternate ring, but I concentrated on breathing, pushing the feeling away.

Abruptly, the ringing cut off. Silence engulfed. My eyes flew open; it sounded like you rejected my call. The hurt and rejection rippled through me. A small part of me wanted to throw the phone away and let this drop, but I frantically punched in your number again. On the exterior, though, the anxiety didn't show. Through my sister's eyes, the me I couldn't recognise was calmly pressing the redial. The ringing started again.

I waited.

Funny how patience could escape you when your heart ruled your mind.

I willed you to pick up, but the calls continued to be cut. Considering that the ringing seemed to last for forever before it ended, I could not keep the suspicion that you did not wish to talk to me present. It ebbed away, but that did little to soothe me. Each time I heard the end of every call I made, the flicker of pain still passed through me.

Not a pleasant feeling, I assure you.

This continued.

Finally, after eternity, you answered.
A myriad of emotions surged through me - relief, joy and irritation.

"Where are you?" I demanded, not sounding like what I felt at all.

Your voice resounded through me, a meer tinkle that never failed to fill my heart. I was knocked breathless.

"What's the matter?" You were confused.

I repeated my question again, anger being the dominant emotion now.

"I'm at work - can't you hear the machines? Why did you call?"

"You were gone the whole day." I pointed out the obvious, not being able to think of a reason to answer the latter. How could I say that I missed not seeing you around? My stomach twisted as I skimmed through your question. "Mei just came back. She was gone the whole day too." I tried to distract her from what I just did.

"I know. She told me she was going to be busy today." There was impatience, then a pause. Hope rekindled in me. But then your voice turned formal and emotionless.

"Thank you for telling me. If there's nothing else, bye." But you waited instead of ending the call, and I could feel a sort of expectation in the air, on both sides of the line. I did not answer, but battled with myself whether to say goodbye. The devil in me won; I hung up.

Sinking back into my chair, I tried to reconsider the conversation.

I thought that the initial worry and anxiety was the worst I could feel, but just like previous encounters, I was wrong. Not receiving the assurance I expected caused my eyes to ridiculously fill with tears. I could feel despair and pain lapping around my heart, threatening to overtake, but I could not understand why. I curled up, trying to keep myself together.

Futile. Another piece of my heart shattered anyway.

Those emotions got so close to taking over my heart, but I took a deep breath. The moisture in my eyes went away; most of the butterfiles in my stomach disappeared. Most, but it was enough.

I stood up and strode out of the room, head held high. I was strong, and in perfect control of my life.

xoxo.

Still trying to figure out that very moment my life got so messed up.

I don't understand why I feel guilty not blogging, when there's obviously no one visiting this place. Probably because I'm trying to deceive myself that there are people reading. Hur. Regardless, I think I have a responsibility towards this site. After all, its my blog, meant to record down different stages of my life.

So, I think I've been completely moody and different this holiday. Things with family, and school, and myself just start to get clearer once you get the opportunity and time to stop and look around, you know? I'm not gonna say what things are screwing my life and myself up, but they are really, really crucial to me right now. Maybe a passer-by can go, 'hey, I thought this is easy to settle. And by telling others, you can get help.' But whatever, one of the many things I've pretty much decided and figured by myself is that keeping things of yourself from others is still the best way to protect me.

School's starting in mid-Jan, which is totally later than usual, so this Christmas didn't feel like one at all. We had a family dinner, thus my facebook status. I've just been staying at home rotting, reading books, trying to get myself to go out and exercise + study for SMTP tryouts in hcjc next year, but failing miserably. Late nights are of course, one of the reasons why I am not waking up early to jog/walk/swim/go to the library to study. Still, this is one of the many holidays where I've been able to do so many things without feeling the numerous emotions that come along with it. At least I went for training, and am planning to continue to train hard for A div next year. Being forced to wake up (sort of) is a refreshing experience after 1 month plus of sleeping till 12pm in the afternoon.

//rant over.
I suspect that I may sound incoherent, mental and all fed up in the above paragraphs, but that was the raw, unadulterated emotions that I have kept pent up in me for long. Just being able to type what I feel (even now) does not make anything feel easier, but sort of liberated. Maybe just the fake impression I give myself that there is someone whom I can talk to and get solutions from, you know? -inserts weak smile-

Merry Christmas everyone.

Melancholy, as usual.

Okay though there's nobody tagging and I'm depressed over that matter, I'm trying to not let it get to me. Going on cruise from tomorrow till 11st, which is a Friday, so um, don't miss me?

Bye.

2009-11-27T14:39:00.000+08:00

Hellololololooooooo.

I got myself a job! ^^V

Though its not of fab pay (I was looking through the newspapers today and some had $7-$11/h pay) I guess its a start! Mummy's elated that I'm finally working, lololol. She's convinced that we won't be able to survive in the economic job sector.

Anyway, I'm still motivated to do good in life this holiday!

My siblings are hooked onto maple and I just played along for a few days, but now its sian sian sian ftw. I wanna make $$ and work hard so that I can play and shop hard and maybe get daddy that car that he wanted in the not-so-distant future! Okay that's rambling but yup I shall make that my aim in life.

Look look!

Its like an effing white Lamborghini sports car that we saw when we went Genting after Cameron. Goshhhhhhh, $1m y'know! But whatever, daddy wants, if I can do it, he gets((:

Okay I don't know what to crap about so I'm off to upload pics of my Cameron/Genting Highlands trip on fb! Our accomodations this time was totally fab, which was why I loved the 5 days I spent in Msia ^^ Even the long hours spent trying to find Cameron are totally forgiven cause omg 5-star hotel with Star Diamond Hospitality by the American dunno-what Bureau! Luvvvvvvvv to bits hehe.

Yup, so check fb and comment :D

Bye loves!

2009-11-21T18:48:00.000+08:00

I swear my holiday's been like that.

Hello, I'm at Cameron Highlands now!
Haha, its been fantastic here, daddy got us a 5-star hotel! Its really, really cool, like England tucked away in some part of Asia.

But anw, can't chat much.
Just popping in to say that I'm going to be MIA till 25th! The internet's crap here and they're still using the old Internet Explorer, but I guess other than that it's been really cool. And cool being figuratively and literally. It's been raining a lot.

But that's for when I'm back.
Bye loves!

2009-11-16T20:31:00.000+08:00

Childhood.

Hai there, I'm keeping my promise.
First thing I did when I woke up at 1.30pm today, after I managed to tear myself away from the tv show my sister was watching, I started uploading all the photos I was supposed to upload on fb. Yunnan family trip, graduation day, class chalet and graduation night. I realised UK and TW trips from last year aren't up yet, but there's a lot, and I shall do that only if I really have the mood to do so.

So, updates of my life since September.

Well, I pulled through EOYs, though results (besides math and biology) are dismal. IH and LA was just plain stupid, I hated how I could have gotten much, much higher but didn't because I just freaked under time pressure. Nevertheless.

Then HCL intensive was torturous, I swear, but rather productive, in a sense. We still had fun as a class though - after all, we should treasure the last few days we had in nanyang.

The fun came after HCL O's!

Png Lin and I went shopping around orchard: Far East Plaza and Wisma before Meng Jie joined us. Then after that we trained to Tamps, and took an half an hour bus ride to Aloha Changi, with Amanda as the landmark so that we could press the bell in time, and we spent 2 hours bringing the fire to life and 2 hours eating. After that Amelia's dad sent us back to bishan and we went home.

Graduation day/night came after that.

Prepping was funnn(: Woke up at 11, slacked + painted nails and rushed arnd 2 cause mummy was downstairs waiting for me >< href="mailto:hilton@sg">hilton@sg, and had loads of funnnnn. Check fb for pictures!

On the 12th I rested, went out again in the 13th!

Met Minyi, then Amanda and Siang Lin for Haagen Dazs before catching 2012 at cine! It was raining quite heavily, so for like the 1st time in my whole entire life, I got caught in the rain ._. Manda says I'm deprived! BUT, I'm srsly not okay. I'm just blessed to be living in an area where I can bus and walk home under shelter. >(

2012 was fantastic! One thing I learnt was that, Minyi's friends/friends' friends are inaccurate movie critics. I swear, all the movies I wanted to watch and I didn't because she said her friends said it wasn't nice, they all got nominated for something sooner or later. Rawr.

So that's basically it!

I have no idea how to end this post, so abruptly shall do it.

Bye world, next time!

2009-11-09T19:40:00.000+08:00

Hello world.

I know I haven't been posting, I'm so sorry! Promise that next week, which is from 16th onwards, I will have zero excuse to not do a post, so be patient till then okay?

This week is totally na-da cause there's HCL O's tmr, grad night on wednesday, date with seniors on friday, and shopping with minyi over the weekends. Yup, busy week, me likey!(:

Anyway, love y'all!

Wish me luck for chinese tomorrow, I really think I can't make it.

Haven't been revising, I'm going to hell in JC. :/

2009-09-28T21:28:00.000+08:00

Got to pull myself together.

Got to be stronger.

Because I have to protect myself;

the anguish, disappointment, emotional waves, that family crashes upon me.

Indifference, a shield,

A state of euphoria where no one close to my heart can ever damage.

No more fear.

Sweet, sweet release.

2009-09-22T18:56:00.000+08:00

Today's been a roller coaster.

Insanely so I may add, cause all good and bad came together.
It started out fine enough; short assembly, good LA lesson in certain instances, PE in the gym which was da bomb, fun song listening class during recess. Chinese wasn't half bad though she dropped the yi2 lun4 wen2 shock on us. Math was fine and fun too cause we just went through stuffs and somehow it felt really short, partly cause we didn't do any work.

Then when it came to biology, the mood just came.
We had a good inheritance quiz, no doubt about that, but after that things just went downhill. We spent chemistry copying freaking answers when he could have gone through something more productive if he printed those answers for us. I mean, more than half the class didn't do those revision worksheets, it was like a waste of time. It was fun going insane with him, yes, but it was totally pointless. Then he told us that we were going to have chem remedial tmr after school, which totally sucked. It's our early dismissal tomorrow! I mean, wtf, we can totally learn electrolysis ourselves. Urgh.

After that it was chinese remedial.
We spent it going through chinese paper 1 formats and content, so it was okay I guess. Then after that I just spent ages doing physics worksheet before I went home with Yi Ting. God the bus driver was insane. He just kept accelerating and braking in such an annoying way. Plus we were standing at the standing area, and that totally caused me to be bus-sick (which includes being nauseous), which explains my cranky/bitchy/irritated tone now. Headache came around too cause I swear the ride was terrible.

So now my evening = ruined cause headache ain't gone.
Me no appetite also, and I was hungry okay! )): Still got chinese compo to do, urgh, it'll be a long time before I can get to bed. Unless I totally heck chinese compo that is. Plausible, I'll consider.

Ma ke, imy!((:

2009-09-21T14:35:00.000+08:00

I observed it yesterday, but it only occurred to me today;
My siblings are really, really, really good at lying blatantly. I swear. Yesterday I was at my grandma's house and ugly scenes happened, but I shan't go into details since brooding ain't good. Basically some fight happened between my 2 cousins and my 2 siblings (when I wasn't there, thank god actually).

Apparently my sister whacked/choked my younger cousin.
As all children go, he cried and my over-protective aunt came to interrogate all of us, me included cause I was at the scene at that time, what on earth happened. So cause I didn't know what was happening I continued clearing my email. My cousin and 2 siblings insisted that he started the fight first, and when my cousin hit back (as it is oh-so-natural to retaliate), he cried. And my aunt was dubious/irritated that her children kept fighting, so she yelled at all of us, me included (again), and said that we shouldn't stay over that night - we were planning to. And of course that got me all irritated as well cause fighting has no link with staying over, but that wasn't the point.

Today, my aunt called again to ask where my parents were.
And she ended the phone conversation by saying, "Oh, by the way, it was your sister that made him cry last night." So I went oh, okay, bye then. But now thinking back, her expressionless face while lying was really freaky. At least my cousin looked down and smirked a little, hinting that she was (happy to be) lying, see. But for her..

Now I know why my twilight books are damaged after a mysterious disappearance.
After all, my Harry Potter books were gone as well; checking her texts, she lent them to her friends by saying that oh, my sister allowed me to lend you these books.

Tyvm, now I have another issue to deal with besides, say, worry over eoys and difficulty in trust.

P.S. This definitely isn't the post you're expecting. But whatev.

2009-09-13T15:55:00.000+08:00

My birthday's officially over!
its been really special, different in some ways, but of course, changes are good! Not like this was major or anything, really.

I didn't get my flowers or balloons! (Nor the icecream for that matter)
Neither did I manage to get into a cinema before 12 September, cause I didn't have time/company, I was busy doing stuffs in preparation for the dinner! Amanda, Xinni, Zoe and Minyi came over, with all my relatives and my mum's friends' families as wellllll((:

So like, Amanda reached Yishun at 6.39pm and called me!
Before that Xinni freaked me out by asking where my house was, causing me to think she reached alr when she was still at amk. o: So then I put on some decent (going-out) clothes and rushed to meet Amanda! Then Zoe and Minyi reached too, but they went popular. Amanda and I went to wait for Xinni at 853 arrival place but somehow we missed her/she totally didn't see us and we had to go find her. But at 7.30pm we finally got up the bus to my house, and everybody was there alr. s:
We ate, then entertained ourselves with poor acting of the chn8 show, and some cooking show which showed extravagance of chefs at classy hotels. And then we started playing daidee! It was really really fun and funny, but I shan't go into details((:
Sometime through the game I got the cheesecake Amanda gave me as a bday present for dessert! And her warnings of "it looks like shit" were rather adequate. But it tasted really good, thank you mandaaaaaaa! <3
Minyi was going crazy with her taekwando lesson and that bad girl ponned it in the end. Oh, and she has grading today; good luck! Then at around 9+ mummy got us to eat more cause there was still a lot of food left, and food + drink (coke, beer, iced water) = bloated/damn full stomach. So when they decided to go home at 10+, we walked to northpoint to digest food! And then I walked back too, heh.

After that, I went to bathe.
Decided to go to sleep, but before I could I realised it was 12 and smses started to flow in!
Thanks: Amanda, Zoe, Xinni, Liwen, Yijung, Nat, Shawn, Minyi, Maria, Yusheng, Yiting, Amanda (senior!), Kenji, Liu Zhihao, Tingshan, mummy, Claris (junior!), Tianchong, Jollin, Mengjie, Marcus, my 2nd aunt and Chelsea (mother-in-law) for wishing me a happy birthday! :D
I guess this year's the year I feel the most loved out of the rest of my birthdays though its in the holidays, haha. But I bet facebook played her part in sending birthday alerts left right centre ehhhhh?((:

Texted Liwen and Zoe talking about o's and future dates/bishan lib date respectively till late 1+am, then slept for 7 hours before waking up and rushing to bishan to meet Zoe! Admittedly we both were late. s: So instead of having 45 minutes for breakfast we had lesser than 20 minutes, but we made it comfortably in record time! Macs breakfast is wayyyyyyy heavy to be called breakfast; as Zoe says, 2 hotcakes would be enough, tyvm! Then we went bishan lib "in case it opens early", and as predicted, there was this warzone not unlike that outside woodlands lib. So obviously we failed to get tables but got the box thing instead.
Studied/did work for 3 hours, then we went bishan popular to get Minyi's optical mouse and my skinny pens. As we were going to the basement for tako balls we saw a dvd sale! God, everything was going at half price, it was totally torture seeing all those movies you wanna watch but couldn't buy. Then we tore ourselves from there and ate tako balls, and after that I bought Yami Yogurt :D

Zoe said bye then, and I think I called mum. Yeahhhh, to see if she wanted to come buy some dvds for me, haha! But she was at the office and suggested I go to the office to find her with food! So I went to the bus stop to find a bus that could go thomson, but there wasn't any. Then I crossed the bridge and I found that bus 52 goes there! So then I crossed back so that I could go to the food junction to buy lunch for mummy, then I walked all the way down again and over the bridge and waited for 52 for 15 minutes before finally getting on the bus. I think that took around 45 minutes, the buying of food to reaching thomson. But it took quite fast I guess, and mummy got her food happily((:
Played on the computer while waiting for mummy to finish her work (I was supposed to do work ><) and then we reached home at 6! Slacked for a while, and then I went out with my brother and sister to meet my 2nd aunt waiting downstairs for us. She drove us to the cinema and we, we being my 4 cousins, 2 aunts and 2 siblings, watched G-forceee! Oh, and I was sms-ing amanda senior from 12 in the afternoon till 9+ at night, haha.

So basically I had loads of fun, and I'm blogging so long cause I know when I look back at my blogposts 10 years (or maybe 1 year) down the road I would want details!
Again, thanks to those who made the day before and yesterday so memorable, I love you!
Oh, and I really didn't expect so many primary school friends to wish me happy birthday too, heh.
Gotta go research for LA homework now, sadly, september holidays wasn't productive at all!

2009-09-11T14:46:00.000+08:00

Gotta keep holding on,

to get out of the tangle and work towards reality.

2009-09-07T19:48:00.000+08:00

A promise.

Someone promised me that,

on my birthday, or when I want it, I'll get balloons and chocolate chip icecream delivered to my doorstep. But I doubt that's going to happen any time soon.

So anyway, I think studying during September holidays ain't working out for me; I went burger King today and finished the 1st 3 topics of the biology textbook only, its like pathetic (go check the TB out before you yell at me for being muggerish; its really freaking short). But that's at least something done, and I did say I'll come online if I did some studying either on sunday or monday, so here I am.

And I'm online too cause I wanna date y'all!

Anyone free on the 11th of September, mummy's throwing an early birthday dinner for me! I'm glad she didn't forget, I was wondering if she would like how she did when I was in Sec2. Though she did say sorry and compensated me (willingly), it sucked to feel forgotten you know. Big time. But negativity aside - that's my new policy of life - tag if you want to/can come! It'll be around 6.30pm at my house, Yishun (I know, its effing far), till anytime you want. Maybe a midnight movie too, hehe.

Birthday wishes:

1. To get into an NC16 movie before I am 16. If you ever, ever do this for me I'll be eternally grateful to you, not kidding! 2 and 5 years down the road when I'm breaking the M18 and R21 movies I'll think of your name, everytime. Someone, pleaseee!

2. As mentioned above - that sounds totally political/LA-presentation like - I want balloons and icecream. For that person it'll be homemade icecream, but for you guys I want strawberry Haagen Dazs icecream; Xinni knows I'm crazy over that, yes yes? Hahah.

3. A new wallet. Anyone who have seen my pink wallet knows this wish is totally reasonable and self-explanatory.

4. Date me out for the remaining of the September holidays everyday to study. And if I miraculously pass my EOYs with flying colours, I'll be eternally grateful too, as like 1, when my future employer stares at my resume and sees A1s in all my subjects, maybe with the exception of IH. And prolly LA and chinese too. HAHA.

5. I'll end this off with my dream car. I've been seeing red-hot ferraris everywhere now, I swear. The news, the tv, the roads, even car magazines my uncle left around. Its driving me crazy; I know its 1million but still! Its never bad to aim high/fantasize!

Alright, and that ends my post.

As usual, an incentive to get online; a study session that is more productive than today. But I really got to go study electrolysis now or I'll fail Eric Tan's quiz tomorrow. s:

Study session with Xinni at the airport after remedial tomorrow, hopefully it'll work out!

2009-09-05T15:12:00.000+08:00

Now this can make me happy.

Okay I really don't know what to blog about, its been a rush of emotions and things to think about these few days. I guess a lot of people feel that way, that's why all the blogs I go to now seem so.. silent and sad.

Talking about today, I went to school for HSK.
Minyi came to my house bus stop to hitch a ride while yiting's always at the place she waits for us, haha. Reached school at 7.45; I gave 15 minutes' allowance in case of a traffic jam. But rawr, laoshi told us 8am so that we wouldn't be late, so we reached there 1 and a half hours early!
God, we felt so cheated I tell you. 1 hour of sleep gone just like that, and I'm nursing a headache alr.

-pauses-

Alright, I just had a 3 hour nap. I'm definitely wasting my saturday!
Back to HSK, so from 7 till 9.30 we were in class talking! Amelia, Yiting, Rachel, Suxiang and I were in class and we were talking about our siblings and what not, that was fun(: Then we got shoo-ed out of the class, okay not really, they were really really polite about it, then we continued talking about i-forgot-what, but it was definitely less pleasant and everybody started growing tired. Then at 9.15 or something we went back to class and waited till 9.30.
Thank god all those late comers came on time to take it can!
The paper was like damn easy! We all were expecting it to be real hard, after all its like from china and all, but apparently.. I seriously think a primary 6 person would be able to do okay in that paper. Hmm.

Basically after that I got home and spammed HP arcade games; they're unlimited timing, but we're allowed only 2 tries each! Still, fun. Which is why till now I haven't started on anything.. Ah maybe at night, but definitely tomorrow.

Today still doesn't feel like the start of September holidays even though all our teachers went "Happy holidays!" (with an answer of rolling eyes and a sarcastic 'thanks' from us). I think term 3 has passed really, really fast. And I don't like it. Yes you can imagine me saying that sentence really spoiled-ly.

But we gotta go on with life.
Hopefully the next time I post I'll be able to go "I FINISHED STUDYING (a certain subject)!"

2009-09-01T11:49:00.001+08:00

Heart pangs.
Maybe not.

2009-08-30T21:35:00.000+08:00

It's been forever since I last since came to this page.
God, I think I'm becoming more and more melancholic, and I'm not sure if that's a good thing.

But back to point, just like I predicted, I drowned in work not done from my 2-week break over Friday last last week and, of course, last week.
1 chinese compo, 3 mathematics worksheets, 3 chemistry worksheets, 1 LA presentation, 2 physics worksheets, 1 physics SPA practice, 1 IH reflection, and of course, lessons.
But basically I managed to scrape practically everything off 'cept for 1 math worksheet, 2 physics worksheet and the IH reflection. Plus the new workload given to us over this long weekend. But regardless, I'm glad I'm back in touch with the world, melancholic or not.

So over the days where I haven't been blogging, I guess many events touched my heart. Not just breezed through it, but left a mark there, be it a kiss or a scar.
I've thought a lot, struggled through much, and I know that I've changed now. But I hope its a positive, good one, though I know change from self will naturally alter the things, people and events around me.

But you smile, bravely, happily, and face the new world you've created.
Cause its memories, love, and new perspectives.
And of course, my new favourite word, eons ago and forever ever(:

2009-08-18T20:49:00.000+08:00

Well at least something went right today.

I did well in my chemistry block test, like really well, for the first time in my nanyang life! Like finally a really good, decent A1 instead of one of those that I usually scrape through with.
And though LA is not what I expected (meaning its more dismal), apparently its as good as it can be, so I guess I have to be contented/happy with it instead huh? -sigh-

Oh well, and thursday is declared a school holiday in lieu of our achievements, but couldn't it have come at a better time?

Regardless, deal with it.

2009-08-12T21:53:00.000+08:00

Yesterday I was like this poor sick dog, lying in bed feeling so miserable.

And I didn't even get to sleep for a few hours at the end okay.

But today I'm feeling much much better!

Fever still threatens though, so I'm not sure if I can/want to go to school tomorrow. Plus the impending CLEP chinese drama quiz thing during CLC lecture tmr makes me dread school even more. Like oh god, why couldn't funfair be on thursday or something?! Rawr.

So like I was thinking, if I don't go to school tomorrow, I would have skipped 1 whole week of school. Fantastic ain't I, haha. Don't think I'll be going on Friday since I wouldn't be able to go on shift; my cough is still rather bad. I think if cow and prawn hears me they'll send me off back home. Which is another reason why my mummy doesn't want me to go to school tomorrow. But I want to take back my math paper! Plus I think we'll prolly get back IH too. :/

AND MINYI JUST TOLD ME WE'RE GETTING BIO PAPERS TOMORROW, OMG.

Too nervous to think of anything else now, bye!

And to (whoever that wants to kill me for such a rubbish blogpost), this is at least an update kay!

2009-08-08T20:37:00.000+08:00

You know what they say about being alone;
amist a crowd, you just hug your soul closer even more.

Hello people,
I've not been in much of a mood to blog nowadays, or maybe its just today.
Not that many are reading this anyway.

So yup, happy national day holidays(:

2009-07-28T22:15:00.000+08:00

Memories assaulted me relentlessly, caressing the desperate torture reflected in my eyes lovingly.

Seeing that Zoe has been so nice to tag on my board in an attempt to keep my blog alive, I shall do a post before blocks kill me totally(:

So the main highlight of this blogpost is monday!
I reached school at like 7.15, and I saw this Jodi Picoult book on her table. Then we started discussing about books in general, and poor Maria was practically going berserk over what her friend did to her precious book (soaked in water - not literally, but you get the point -, killed the book spine, and did not say sorry). Then Amelia came to join us and we discussed about JP's style of writing and the recent (or not so recent) craze about her books, and Nora Roberts of course, and how they weren't that nice except a specific few. Apparently Amelia's more critical of her writing, she finds it way too drama. But for emotional readers like Zoe and I, its perfectly fine(: I just find it a bit too draggy, not much of my taste. Unless you add in topics/characters I like, like in Handle with Care how Amelia (the other daughter) became bulimic. It was really a great insight and all.
Then as I got carried away with this conversation, suddenly Minyi was looming over me with her itouch and I realised 7.30 practically flew to reach me. And we walked down to the track and then we did voting!

Interesting stuff at the track:
The sec2s were sitting in this circle with Minyi and I; going clockwise from my left, Shuan Hwee, Trudy, Zest, Vanessa, Minyi and me. So they were discussing about this Geography assignment which was so bloody easy as compared to what we did last time (counting cars and doing statistics indeed), and I was trying to remember geog to help them with it. Haha. Then suddenly Zest realised there were loads of ants behind her, and she practically stood up and screamed (and tried to run away). Minyi and I were looking on with half-amused, half-bewildered faces. And I educated her on ant mentality (which made Minyi laugh like crazy).

"Ants move around you, they don't move to you. Unless you start screaming and stepping on them then more will come."

So then she sat back down but away from them. Haha. Zoe totally did that too while we were counting votes/discussing can! -rolls eyes- She was even more extreme, running all the way to the bi-polar part of the circle we made.

Hmm, I can't remember any more interesting stuffs. So I shall skip to Chemistry.
So like during lunch, Mengjie, Chuxi, Shimun and I were crowding around Chuxi's table doing bio worksheet while the rest of the class were at the canteen eating, then Eric Tan came into class.

Eric Tan: Uhhhh, Meng... Mengjie? Can you do me a favour?
(everybody stares up at him)

Eric Tan: Can you help me write on the board that there will be a chem quiz on Friday?

Me: Okayyyyy, Mr Tan you can go write it there yourself!

ET: I have to go down the level to tell them, no time!

Mengjie: Oh okay. Eh then you can tell the class later during class what! (Cause after lunch its chem lesson)

ET: Uhhh. -pauses- I don't want to waste time during class! I want to rush through the lesson.

(everybody gives him this o.o + skeptical look but keeps quiet)

ET: Thanks. (and he exits)

So then Mengjie went to the whiteboard and wrote down chem quiz on the assignment schedule and on the centre as well so that people will notice. And then we were saying he'll definitely mention it in class again cause he always repeats himself. And so he did. See how well we know him((:

Then after that Chuxi and Jiamin went down to the canteen to buy food and I asked them to help me buy Pokey. So then I was eating while he had lesson, haha. He gave us class time to do worksheet 17? from like around 1.45pm to 2.05pm I think. While he was giving us instructions Sheryl saw me eating and asked me to give her some, so I threw the whole box to the back of the class when ET's back was turned. Then after that we were doing the worksheet while he walked around the class, and he saw Sheryl eating.

ET: Waa Sheryl, very pokey ah!

And the whole class was wondering what he meant except Sheryl, Jiamin, Maria, Huaimin and I (those people who saw me throwing) and we burst out into sheepish laughter. Haha. He didn't catch me eating though :D

So at around 2+pm he walked to the front of the class and said we'll be going through the worksheet. But obviously while he was walking around the class we were talking to him, so he got all distracted and started talking about how he studied physics and chem and C and F math when he was in St. Andrews JC. Then he started telling us about his studying experiences!

ET: Okay, let me tell you how I studied for eoys in the past. -glances at clock- Okay lets not have lesson today can?

(class cheers and listens eagerly to his secret to studying)

ET: So lets say you end school at 2 right? Then you reach home at around 3, you go and bathe. Then you go and get lunch. And then what do you do? You don't study immediately. You must take your time and? -looks pointedly at us-

Tingshan: Sleep!

ET: YESSS. You go and sleep! Of course, cause you all are ladies so you might be sensitive about your -motions at body figure- I shan't say cause this is a... sensitive topic, but you all know what I'm saying right! So maybe you all eat a bit only, then you go and sleep. Give yourself 1 hour, wake up at 4+.

(Then everybody starts rolling our eyes and going "we'll sleep and wake up at 7+ instead of 4+")

ET: That's why you need discipline! If you wake up at 7 its gone case already. So you wake up at 4+ - (more complaints about this being impossible but was ignored) - what do you do?

Someone: SLEEP.

(laughter erupts on cue while ET smirks)

ET: No! You go study. Then at around 6 or 7+, you go wait for your dinner! Then you eat your dinner, and what do you do after dinner?

Someone: Sleep?

ET: No, you continue studying! Then one hour plus later, you stop and then you?

-silence-

ET: WATCH THE NEWS.

(What the, Mr Tan! WHO WATCHES THE NEWS DURING EOYS.)

ET: Go watch the news! Then you can relax and learn about stuff for GP (blabla). Then after that you study from 10.30 till all the way.

TS: Huh, but you study so little hours only!

ET: No, where got!

Someone: What time do you study until?

ET: 2 oclock?

(gasps everywhere)
(And then we spammed asked him what time he woke up. Which was 6 oclock, so apparently he survives on 4 hours of sleep.)

That was basically the interesting part of the day!
I took half an hour to type this, oh my. So anyway, blocks are coming and I'm feeling less-than-friendly towards the computer nowadays so I'm rarely online. So this might be my final post till like 7 August or 10 August?

Advanced warning: Going to genting from 7-9 August!

So don't miss me, if you want me to blog on the 7th tag more more more(:
And seriously, I'll need all the luck to do well in my blocktests ):
Sayonara, darlings!

Resurfacing, getting a new perspective of life.

Okay, yesterday I was talking to one of my friends on msn and I suddenly realised I cleared all my overdue homework that I have been owing since T2W9, like Math SIA portfolio! And obviously when I realised that I went crazy and my poor friend was half-bewildered and amused at the same time. Haha.

School on friday was reallyyyyyyyyy cool!

Everybody had paper bags everywhere around their tables, containing their school uniforms and shoes that they brought to change plus some of them brought home clothes cause we all decided to give ourselves a break. Haha, our class was really vibrant! There were all sorts of colours, I swear, and all kinds of ethnic costumes! Thank you Graces :D

We had chinese, malay, indian, panjabi, korean, japanese, vietnamese, the judging teacher was really pleased with our class, haha! When Mdm Leon came in for the 1st lesson after PCCG she was so taken aback. And so was Eric Tan.

Mr Kaw was like some hawker centre guy with a cigarette luh! Then we were all o__o Mr Kaw, you smoke? Thankfully he doesn't, he specially bought a pack of cigarettes to pull off his "costume", or so he claims (maybe he got it from his friends or something).

We took class photos during PCCG, and I hitched on my heels :D

Maria, fiance(!), was complaining and pleading and fuming with/at me to get off those heels so that she'll be 1 cm taller than me again, LOL. But of course I didn't. Walking around in heels feeling much taller for once in school feels damned good, I tell you. Since they're especially illegal on usual days as well, heh.

Lessons were so bearable, my stomach wasn't grumbling that much.

Daddy claims my stomach is getting smaller cause we're all deprived of food till an hour late. But staggered recesses will wave us goodbye next week! ):
No more going home at 1.15, how sad is that. I wish the school would just let it be till like eoys, this way of school life is so much better! But I seriously doubt the school can make a decision to resume staggered recesses that effectively please, so I suppose that'a fruitless wish eh?

I'm going out to watch Harry Potter later, if my aunt gets tickets, so I'll be off to do my work!

No more owing work, this sort of life is so much better. Though it takes time to get used to. Haha, and I love the English/American (I don't know which is in the story line of my book!) way of dating, its so much clearer and less.. complicated. :/

Tata darlings, tag!
Or I'll be heartbroken ):

2009-07-16T17:03:00.000+08:00

It's been so emotionally draining,
I don't know if I can hold on anymore.
.

2009-07-11T13:36:00.000+08:00

Froggy says hi, including raindrops and all!(:

Everybody's been saying that I've been posting about work work and more work (besides mingwei, love!), so I shall get rid of those complaints once and for all. Haha.

So on friday lessons were really really fun :D

During PCCG, we went to conference room C with the 2 china people! We did role play, interviewers and interviewees! The plan was to let the interviewees find out how they're showing the interviewers that they're nervous, haha. Thank god I was the interviewer 2 times round(: And we did ice breaker with the china people too, they speak -gasps- marvellous english! They're indeed from China's top school!

Then physics and chemistry was.. science. Nothing much happened.

After that, during the 1 hour break, after eating, Mabel, Maria, Jiamin, Jiaying, Mingwei and I were sitting at the back of the class! Mabel was at the benchtop table, Jiaying at the last row table, Jiamin and I were straddling the chairs facing Jiaying, and Maria was at the right of us (left of Jiaying). Mingwei was on my left, sitting beside Jiaying after a while. I took Xinni's camera and Mabel did sexy poses, haha! <3>

Maria was also being oh-so-camera-shy and playing around with Jiaying's jacket, very cute! :D Then right, the principals from other schools walked past our class. s: One of them totally stared at me (or my sitting position), then Jiamin and I were like "shit" and scrambled to sit properly before more principals could walk past us ><>

So then, fiasco over, Suxiang joined us.

Then Maria said something teasing to her I think, and then Mingwei was like.

MW: Maria! -shocked expression- She got tiara one leh! How can you say that to her!

M: Huh, what tiara? You think she princess meh!

MW: OBVIOUSLY she has a tiara! You mean you didn't know?!

M: Know what! She's also not a princess, why would she have a tiara!

MW: Omg. -stares at her disbelievingly- You mean you don't know?

M: Know what!

MW: -stares at us beseechingly- You all know right?

-stunned silence-

MW: Maria. -looks at her- You don't know, Suxiang's a princess in Malaysia!

(Then there was some confusion with Maria cause she didn't know suxiang was from msia, much less a princess. Haha.)

M: Huh?! (she was rather panicky, hehe) Suxiang, you really a sultan's daughter?

SX: -silence-

MW: Omg, I can't believe you don't know!

Mabel: You don't believe you ask soo chin! She's also from msia with suxiang one what.

M: Soo chin! Is suxiang a sultan's daughter? (More confusion cause she couldn't pronounce sultan loudly and properly. haha)

SC: -staring at us sitting behind maria and nodding furiously while trying not to laugh- Uh. Yeah?

M: -turns to us and we stopped immediately- I don't believe this.

Then she continued to ask like everybody in class while we kept nodding to make them lie to her. AHAHAH I swear it was so funny! Poor maria might still be believing the story, hehe!

We had IH and math after that, and they passed really fast cause I was chionging my math worksheet Int.2. I finally finished it during the half-hour lunch, and then finished up physics worksheet in LA!

LA was fun, cause he brought us up to com lab 2 to search for articles on Human Rights so that we could write responses in lieu of SRQ. Then like everybody was slacking around and Mr Kaw was being his funny self as usual, of course(:

Huaimin was sitting opposite while Xinni was beside me! Then there was this printer/scanner thing in between us that wasn't supposed to be used I think. It suddenly made some machine noise that made it sound like it was scanning something, then Huaimin the joker was like "Oh noooooooo, its a transformer!" in this really bimbotic voice. HAHA. Priceless.

Then aft school, Mabel, Jiaying, Mingwei, Png Lin and I went to orchard. After stopping at Mingwei's house to change and stuff. Thanks mlim for the paper bag! :D Then we changed our minds and went plaza sing instead, and talked, walked, gossiped, took photos, blah blah. I left at 6 plus with bong and her friend and went to grandma's house till 10 plus.

In short, long but fun day(:

Then I talked on the phone with my friend till 2, haha.

So I'm not blogging about work anymore, I expect more tags!

2009-07-06T17:50:00.000+08:00

I thought this was really funny. :D

Okay so, my long weekend was very sad.
Basically I stayed at home and did homework. Except that on Saturday night I couldn't stand it so I went out with my sister to watch Ice Age 3!
And Xinni, I think Ice Age 3's funnier than Ice Age okay! I just kept laughing throughout the whole movie. Well not literally, but almost.

So um, I finished 1 math reflection and my IH SBQ?
I'm left with 1 more topic reflection (which I have no idea what to write) and 1 more math activity, which I already got the book. And I need to study su2 yu3 for tomorrow's chinese lesson s: (I don't want to die from laoshi's wrath! ><)

Training's next weekkkkkkk, I can't wait!
And these few days had been so cooling, now I've half a mind to not migrate to England. Haha kidding. Um, so oh shiat IH seminar presentation, Yiting haven't replied me I don't know what she's up to, but whatever. -deep breaths-

I'm off to slack now!
Chinese later, fun first. Yup(:

2009-07-02T18:29:00.000+08:00

So i've been like doing this for the past few days(:

Just bear with two more of posts of this nature okay?

I'm striking off items on my homework list happily. Bye, biology SIA and R&R!

Come now, grit your teeth for math reflections and chinese functional writing.

Should I finish my IH SBQ today? ._.

On a side note, Charlene, I like H1N1 okay! We sec4s getta go home at 1.15pm on wednesday and thursday, isn't that wonderful? -megawattsmile-

Taiwan people are the love, bomb, and world!

Missing Taiwan so much now.

Tata!

2009-07-01T22:33:00.000+08:00

So, minor update!

Strike out 1 chinese compo, 11 chinese summaries and 1 mini chinese compre, and of course my physics SIA(:

Left with 1 chinese functional writing, 30 idioms each day, 3 math reflections, biology SIA, R&R and IH SBQ.

Right.

2009-06-30T11:30:00.000+08:00

So like, ahhhhhhhh for the rest of the week! D:

Let's see. I have a chinese paper 1 / 11 chinese summaries / 1 mini chinese compre / 250 chinese idioms all of which are due tomorrow, and 3 math reflections / biology SIA / physics SIA / IH SBQ / R&R all due on friday.

Basically, I'm dead meat.
So uh, I say hi and bye now, I'm off to attempt to do some chinese summaries in SIL slot while the rest are doing (or supposedly doing while actually facebooking) their achievements list for testimonals. Yup.

Goodbye.

Rambling rants

2009-06-26T10:54:00.000+08:00

Sooo, this is exactly the opposite of what I'm feeling right now?
I mean, I couldn't find a decent (nice looking) picture of stress or something like that, so I guess opposites will have to serve.

Anyway, update, I've been doing work. I have, I am trying to be good. And its just three more days to school, I know we're all having mixed feelings over that. But its still going to come, and I bet the deans or (vice-)principal(s) are going to start ~~lecturing~~ talking to us about H1N1 again. Not like we haven't heard it, say, a one hundred times from the people around us so far.

Okay that was beside the point.
Point is, I'm here blogging cause Charlene is being sad and I do not have the mood (yet) to start work/get myself in the bathroom! But I've promised myself I shall after I finish this post. So I've been playing typing maniac and I've won Minyi, and I shall try to do a math portfolio reflection today.

Yup that's about it.
And going to the library/office to do work is motivating/condusive(: Except Minyi doesn't think that way. That slacker is so going to die when school reopens. Oh wells, she is more efficient than me anyway. I think everybody is. :/

Bye! -waves-

Kunming, Yunnan

2009-06-22T17:34:00.000+08:00

Hello! -waves-

I'm back from China after a gruelling 8 days!

I wanted to let pictures do all the talking, but i have like many and as everybody knows, blogger isn't picture friendly. s:

So I'm posting them on Facebook!(:

Time to chiong homework once holidays are over, so wish me luck!

I need motivation.

2009-06-16T00:39:00.000+08:00

Surprise!(:
Haha actually I have no idea whether this post will publish as assigned, but I shall just post it.

So I found this on somebody's blog, and I found it real meaningful.
Here it is, its about the above picture:

Virgos are rational, practical, intelligent people who are able to think clearly thanks to the ruler of their Earth sign, Mercury. If you ever decide to question a Virgo, make sure you know your stuff because it will be hard to convince them they are wrong.

A Virgo's thought is so precise that they are not very tolerant of other people's procrastination or lack of common sense. They simply cannot understand why other people cannot function at the same level as they do. Because Virgos have such clear thought, they may be critical of others.

They are perfectionists who despise carelessness and incoherence in others. However, as critical as they are of others, they usually turn that criticism inwards on themselves. They dislike being criticised by others because they already know their own faults.

Most Virgos have an intensity that makes them both industrious and efficient. Sticklers for detail, they are very organised. They are also hard workers as they are driven to do, not daydream.

They are weary of making decisions until they know all the facts. Virgos are shy by nature and function better in one-on-one situations rather than in large social gatherings.

To the world, Virgos appear calm and collected, but underneath that, they have a great intensity that demands they bring order to their worlds. Beneath the calm exterior is a frantic interior that needs to rearrange until everything is perfect. Whether it is balancing a checkbook to the penny or measuring something five times until they are sure it is precise, Virgos are perfectionists. This works well with their analytical thinking and practicality.

Virgos are cautious in most of their endeavors. They like to examine all variables before making decisions, and they are slow to trust because they don’t like to be vulnerable. Because of this, Virgos don’t fall in love easily and they are very choosy about their mates and friends. They are drawn to people through intellectual curiosity rather than shallow physical attraction or passion.

Virgos need intellectual stimulation, and will quickly grow bored in the company of those who make small talk rather than speaking of serious, important things.

There, hope it entertains!
If there's anybody reading this there is, no one's tagging again! ):

Hello darlings,
I'm at the Changi Airport now!
Its 2.32am, flying off soon.

Love you, Zoe, Minyi, Tay <3
Mabel too, haha. Online dates ftw.
Bye!

2009-06-11T12:01:00.000+08:00

Flying off.

Okay so I wouldn't be departing when the sun is rising, it'll be much earlier than that, but whatever! Though the plane looks so tiny and not like a plane too. Heh.

I'll be going off to China on 12th June, though technically it'd be 1am on 13th. So I'll totally miss Singapore, I hope I won't be bored there! ):
I seriously don't know what made my mum book a tour to Yunnan. Besides her liking for DJ Chen Jian Bin of FM97.2. -sigh-
So I'll be watching scenery for a full 7 days.

I haven't done much work y'know, I'm so worried that I'd be sleeping late and waking up early every morning because I'd be rushing out all my work? I suppose I should let go of the busy life in Singapore now but I just can't! I haven't done biology SIA and my math reflections and my worksheets and R&R and all the chinese work.. I think I'm going to die. o:

Someone like convince me to have fun, and that when I come back on the 21st (or 22nd, since its midnight) I'd be able to finish all my work on time.
Maybe then I'd enjoy my holiday, literally for those 8 days, more.
Till then.

P.S. I mean, I'm not even taking SIA (Singapore Airlines)!
What is there to look forward to, seriously. D:

2009-06-07T22:54:00.000+08:00

So like, I connected my camera to the computer cause a friend wanted certain pictures, and I noticed these very late pictures that haven't seen computer light before, so here they are!

The very memories, really.
Minyi the hulk carrying Zoe the big friendly giant; our marvellous attention-attracting balloons; gym cleaning under the sponge pit which, of course, inevitably leads to us wanting to take photos to leave memories and evidence in the wake.

Precious days.

2009-06-07T15:14:00.000+08:00

Its like every time it happens,

the anguish overwhelms.

2009-06-05T14:36:00.000+08:00

Happiness ahead!

So tramp seniors, we should all follow the signs today.
Cause our darling sec2s got their da4 jia4 zi3s this training!(:

I woke up today at 8.35am and it took me a full minute before I figured out that I set the alarm so that I could go for training. Imagine how groggy I was. So then mummy backed out and I had to go to school myself. Reached gym at around 10.34am and I started doing PT with Charlene and the sec2s.

At 12pm exactly, the sec1s got off the tramp and so the sec2s got on as promised and did qiankong, zhuanpa and zhuantang respectively cause of the number system that I used today. And they all did beautifully of course, except for little hitches Trudy had with her zhuantang. But nevertheless, we have all the time in the world to fix it!

So they got like the shock of their lives when they realised I wanted them to do dajiazi-s after all the dongzuos, muahaha. But they did and they first jie-d with mats for zhuantang! Trudy at 12.49, Shuan Hwee at 12.52 and Zest at 12.54 approximately, 5th June!(:

And then they went all high and started doing without mats for zhuantang like just lesser than 10 minutes later. Haha, I love them. Charlene of course did her wonderful tao after all 3 sec2s! And so we left gym as happy people.

Road to happiness, smile!

2009-06-03T18:58:00.000+08:00

The official trailer for New Moon is out!

However tempting it may sound though, it totally spoils the beautiful, vague image that I have of Bella and Edward. So now my mind is screwed :/

Nevertheless, its good to be brought down to Earth sometimes isn't it?

Hahah so Zoe's sweet sixteen was yesterday!

It was really funny as Minyi was going crazy. We started off with lunch at Mos Burger, and cause Zoe was the birthday girl we got seats for her and food too! But of course, she still had to pay. Haha. Then we had this grandma craning her head over to our table over Zoe's head cause she wanted to see whether we were done with our food, causing Zoe to be startled and me to be very irritated with her. The expression she gave was not tasteful at all.

Then we queued for 9235709357 minutes before we could get tickets to Dance, Subaru and we thought the movies at Cathay started early so we all but ran to the cinema, only to realise that it was still at commercial. But it started soon so it was okay. And boy was the movie tear-inducing, there were blown noses everywhere. I joined the club too near the end cause I couldn't stand it anymore. My head has this thing against me; if I stop myself from tearing it'll start burning. Hur.

So then after the movie we walked around AMK hub cause the birthday girl couldn't make up her mind what she wanted to do, and we ended up at Minitoons. And that was when all the funny things started. I guess.

I saw the noticeboard that said that friends of members can have a 15% discount on their birthdays, which was what Zoe wanted - birthday discounts! So then I pointed it out to her but instead of going "yay" she went "really meh!". That girl. >( After that she went around seeing whether there were stuffs she wanted and halfway through changed her mind and started looking for her sister's birthday present instead. She didn't find anything but was so tempted by the gummies so Minyi joined her in buying too.

Then halfway through this whole group of Anderson people (2 guys and 4 girls I think, or more) came into Minitoons. And Minyi totally dao-ed them till she noticed 1 guy's face and she totally ran away from him luh! Zoe and I chased after her and she was like "omg its my primary school classmates!" Apparently they were the 2 that she always bullied, HAHAHA. So long story short she asked Zoe to pay for her but apparently it didn't work cause they were just behind her :/ Then the guys spilt with the girls; they waited outside. And we were leaving. Crazy Minyi went one whole round around the shop just to avoid them. But they still saw her anyway! It was weird seeing these 2 guys staring intently at Minyi, seriously. o:

Then we were walking towards Mos Burger 1 story and opposite bipoles away from them when Minyi turned back and said she needed the toilet. So Zoe and I waited for her outside. But bingo, when she came out the same group of Anderson people passed by and those two guys kept glancing at her while keeping a straight/curious face/expression on luh! And Zoe and I were so so so amused, AHAHAH.
From Minyi: "Wahlao, they stalked me all the way to the girl's toliet!"
See why we love her so. Haha.

So I had insomnia yesterday night and slept at 1, woke up at 9 today and reached school at 10.20+. But the gate was closed so I reached the gym at around 10.34, checked the juniors out and went for chinese remedial in the geog room with laoshi, bong, xinni and krystal. I have 63 chinese idioms to memorise by 8th June, ohnoes ): Went back to training at 12.11pm till 1, then I went to the office to do work till 4+ during which my sister and I went swimmingggggg :D

So now my hair smells of chlorine and I'm freezing in this room as I type. I swear and ice cube will feel warm in my hands. Maybe I should go try later, hehe. Okay so I am going to go demand mummy to send us back home now, bye!

I updatedddddddd(:

2009-05-31T14:26:00.000+08:00

Beautiful.

Okay, so June Holidays are here, and of course all sec4s cheer and groan at the same time.
Still, who would complain about sleeping in late despite the tremendous amounts of homework?(:

Friday was like an insane day for all sec4s, srsly.
Due to LA portfolio of course. Mabel needed to print her stuffs out (cause her printer was ___) and I needed to do my MYE. So we went to check out com labs after we ate. Stupid thing to do. The com labs were all exploding with people, and Mabel and I had hell trying to find 1 terminal available, much less two. But thankfully Rainie (some sec2 I know) just finished with her com so we took over it while Mabel used the com on my left(: So the arrangement was this, from left to right. Mabel, me, and 3 of Rainie's friends on 1 com. Nothing bad, right?

Well, while we waited for the com to "apply our personal settings", I stole a chair from opposite for Mabel. Then we sat at the table top at the side of the com lab near the window. Then like one of those ~~bitchy~~ rude sec2s crowding around their com just stood up and stole the bloody chair WITHOUT saying a freaking word to us! I mean like, they saw that the chair was taken by us, srsly. Cause when she took the chair she even glanced at us. Then like she just took it and continued sitting on the chair to bitch about people on facebook. No comments there, cause its their freedom. Point is, besides stealing my/Mabel's bloody chair, because they were each sitting on 3 chairs, and my com was just beside theirs, my keyboard was practically stuck cause the girl right beside me was like holding it in place accidentally-on-purpose.
(Now I'm fuming as I write this thing.)

And then, when I tried pulling out my keyboard right, she like totally GLARED at me. (Clarification, I didn't even notice that the keyboard was hitting her CHAIR - not her - till she turned) I was like what the eff?! To Mabel luh. And she was half amused, half irritated as well, HAHA. Real funny. She went like, "EH WHERE'S MY CHAIR?" in this really loud voice, and I responded "YEAH, where is it ah?" and all three looked up at us. Then she stared back and they looked down and gathered their heads together somewhat embarassedly (if there's such a word) and a bit irritatedly. Obviously to bitch more about us. But they are so badly-taught they didn't return Mabel the chair.

Okay so bitching/complaining aside, poor Mabel had to stand up cause the com lab was so freaking crowded there weren't any other spare chairs. And my acc couldn't connect to the printer and she saw her friend Cynthia so she evacuated to another terminal. I finished editing my content page, started a bit on MYE, and then Mabel and I frantically started printing out stuffs and thus were late for our sabbats. Heh.

Then during lu xun, though the movie was rather interesting in a ridiculous sort of way, Yanting and I totally couldn't make it and slept. And my mother-in-law is like totally drama. She thought I was ponning sabbats and so when she saw me at the classroom door, she was like -gasps- (super loudly till even the teacher turned her head) and was like OMG SURPRISE LEH QIAOHUI. Like totally, -rolls eyes-.

So then at the end I went back to class and wanted to chiong my MYE, but krystal was like, 407 CLEAN UP CLASS. But before I could do anything ms chee came in with report books, and I remembered I had to pay for my class fines. And I shall not blog about the whole complete fiasco cause the main point of this blogpost is actually to tell zoe how much I have been sleeping instead of describing my last day of school! I seriously need to stop myself from blogging/typing so much. So then I took my report book, totally dumped it on my table without looking at it, and rushed to the computer and started crapping (I swear NK's going to kill me for quality of work) stuff out. And I grew more frantic cause the uncles came in to shoo us out of class cause they needed to arrange our tables for parent-teacher meeting tmr and my stuffs were strewn across 2 tables zomg! o:

Okay I'm growing hysterical.
Ah so I just left school at 4 or 5+ I can't remember. And I saw minyi at the bus stop still waiting for her bus to plaza sing though she left like quite early HAHAHA. Then like I had to run from the netball benches to the bus stop cause I saw this bus that looked like 852 and I am thankful that I decided to run for that bus. Haha, so like, I got a seat, sat down, and stoned for a while before I realised that June holidays are here. And it struck me so much that I was super shocked. I mean like, the idea of sleeping in and wasting my days away, being able to do what I want, it was so overwhelming. And I dozed off with a smile on my face, thinking what I could be doing during those fantastic days(:

I think I went home and slacked to my heart's desire, really.
First time that I had been able to do nothing without feeling a tiniest bit of guilt or nagging at my heart. And then I read Eclipse and Breaking Dawn again, and I regretted reading it. Zoe knows why now, haahha, but that's besides the point. So because I was reading so much I slept at say 2, and Zoe! I woke up at say 11. Then on saturday night I slept at 2 or around there again, and guess what. I woke up at 1. HAHAH see why I say I'm a sloth now(:

Okay so I'm going to go around searching for a blogskin now cause I don't like my current one, and with it I shall blog a teeny bit more sophisticatedly. I realise I sound soooooo immature and _)$@*_@ in my posts ):

So yup, see you!
And Charlene, I can't be bothered to wake up at 6+ for training, srsly!
I'll try, but no promises okay?
Pro-ness = Zoe and Minyi, not me! HAHAH.
Love you too <3

2009-05-27T10:28:00.000+08:00

Time, you gotta slow down.

'Cause I can't catch up.

2009-05-26T18:13:00.000+08:00

Sometimes I wish life was like that.

So today my life was sort of like that.
If you minus off all the words I have been frantically typing into Microsoft Word, that is. But it was still the most enjoyable productive day I ever had! Like in recent times, I think.

Mhmm, so may tmr be the same too!
And like, more productive please s:

2009-05-23T21:32:00.000+08:00

I realise that in the fluster of school ending in a week and stuff, I haven't been blogging!
Zomg I feel so bad really ><
Haha so yup, though I really wanna sleep now due to late nights from chemistry SIA game and open house, I shall update a bit before I go blank on my bed.

Well LA portfolio's getting on my nerves. Like reallyyyyyyy.
But I shan't talk about that.
Open house was today! Amelia, Amanda and I did morning shift for the magic show, and it was like how slack please. We did 3 shows, and then just sat/slacked around for the rest of the time. Cause we took turns with the 2 sec2s, and parents+children visiting the lab are usually more interested in the slime and superball. Yup.

Then I went to the gym for open house too, and we just played/trained/practised at the same time. Manda came!(: And Charlene (precious,vivacious girl she is) managed to convince/make me do houkong chuai. Thanks dear, though I only did 1 decent one before I got down! Haha.

Reached home at 3, and I watched Americal Idol VIII! Zomg I need to know who won. I shall go search on the net cause somehow chn 5 showed their 3 songs only, and apparently (unless I misunderstood the emcee or smth) there's another 2 hour show to show who won. Like why couldn't they just tell us who won?! -.-

Hey OMG KRIS WON.
What the! D: I WANT ADAM! Ahhhhhh! ):

Okay forget it. Adam's still going to like get talent-scouted sooner or later anw, so whatever! His voice totally rocks, I swear. Today's been such a fantastic music day for me. I love Adam('s voice), and I fell in love with David Archutela's voice as well! Like seriously, hot damn, his voice is to die for. Especially those catchy-beat-songs he has! I was repeating "crush" on my way to school and back. Now I got most of his other songs as well -megawattsmile-

And I realise I sound so much more different as compared to last time. :/
Irregardless. I suppose I am still the same, most of, at least. Just, you know, slack-er (sounds like something zoe will say because of the sleeping in class thing), and more bold in terms of school rules and voicing out my opinion. Though I still get into awkward situations sometimes. Yup. And I suspect that when I'm super tired I just start spouting nonsense, oh boy. s:

Back to topic, after that I watched Princess Diaries II!
LIKE FINALLY, I watched both Princess Diaries movies alr! When it was in the cinemas I didn't have the time to go watch ): It was nice luh! I don't get why some/a lot of people say it wasn't good. Hur, chick flicks still rock the best :D

School's still pretty much the same, just like, teachers are so much better.
Let's see:
Nigel Kaw (LA) - he's giving us literature in video form! zomg love love love lit.
Mdm Leon (IM) - she chiongs questions during first 50-55 mins, then let us slack at the end! Good way to end lessons(:
Leelaoshi (CL) - we had 理解问答 to do luh, but cause of 阅读卡 she didn't exactly stop us from discussing questions/answers! Plus we were allowed to do it during lunch andddddddd, it was easy. Oh, and I did well for 阅读卡 too! HAHA SO DID YANTING.
Mark Shone (PH) - we didn't even have proper physics lessons, HAHA. We had enrichment practical! <3 style="font-weight: bold;">highs. He just goes real hyper in our class (only, I think, we work magic on him see :D) and we just have such fun lessons! Not to mention secret chem lab rendezvous-es with him, amelia, amanda, mabel and jiaying! -megawattsmile- secrets galoreeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Amy Lim (IH) - HAHA yanting and soo chin and I were like. Say chalk! -winkwinks-

See, fun school days!(:
Just that friday was really long, 2.35pm dismissal ):
Nevertheless, we ended with "The Complete Works of Shakespeare" so it was worth staying awake I suppose! :D

Taking about school like that makes me smile so much, though when we're there ourselves we feel rather dead. Must be the waking up at 5.55am thing every morning.
And sabbats are next week, I don't want to go! ):
I shall try my best to get out of it, and spend my time more meaningfully. Like doing my LA portfolio. Ah its back in my blogpost again, pfft. I will do it tomorrow, I swear. Meh. You are going to- OH SHIT. I haven't done math activity, like ohmytian!><
Ah I'm dead meat.

Okay, mental note to self:
-Math Activity
-LA Portfolio

Okay yup we went to science centre for math activity!
Xinni, Yiting, Priscilla, Maria, Wandong, Sharon and I! Plus of course a hell load of people from sec4 nanyang as well. I mean its free entrance, and we couldn't have all gone for the math talk rightttttt? Right(:
It was like way cool! And xinni posted pics on her facebook alr. I got pics in my phone but I don't want to install samsung stuffs just to be able to connect my phone to the com, so forget it! I'll do so one day when I feel like it. Or something along those lines.

Basically we found out/learnt/saw/whatever that:
-I am taller than Xinni/Maria and vice versa
-The phenomenon of waves moving away from you and being reflected back has something to do with math
-The solid/structure that has 1 side is called a Klein Bottle
-compound interest is way scary; never pay/owe something based on compound interest.
-Chess board and rice = tonnes (ask me what this means)
-my heart has pumped 594,086,400 times at the moment I checked this up(:
-a thingo with 3 super complicated scales = ancient calculator in the past
-nature = stuff that has math
-you have a greater probability of getting struck by lightning than striking lottery
-pythygorus theorem (however you spell it) came from 3 squares with sides a, b, c and water
-THERE'S SUCH A THING CALLED SPIROGRAPHS ZOMG (xinni i have a sad childhood!><)
-the math circle "pi" thingo has 38917284901274018927023092 decimals. Okay not really, but you get my point.

Yup, that's what we learnt :D
So yes xinni science centre was fun fun fun!
And I just saw this advertisement on tv showing us the da vinci exhibition in sci centre, haha.

Okay, long blog post alr!(:
Tag people tag! And then I'll feel loved (+guilt for not updating), and i'll blog more.
See the cause and effect thingy going on here? Heh.
I hope I'm going grandma's house tmr for dumplings! The glutinous rice one, not dumplings with wanton noodles or anything.

So La Vista, darlings!

2009-05-15T12:37:00.000+08:00

Hello world, I'm blogging again! :D
Hahah cause Zoe chai requested -beams- I'm in school now, its friday lunchtime! Couldn't blog yeterday cause I went out with mummy!(: I had no homework so I decided to find her at the office and then we went northpoint for dinner and bought a computer. Heh. Reached home at 10, slept at 11.30. o:

So yup anw I got back all my BT papers alr!
2 today, my physics was so disappointing. I mean like, my bio which usually sucked totally exchanged places with physics. Those who know my bio will understand. But ohwellllls. I shall study harder next time! I've grown how to let go more easily; forgetting helps too.

Uh there's nothing much to blog about cause this week had been so sucky >(
Tuesday and Wednesday was a blur actually, cause it was like surviving through school then going home to do homework or staying back for training sorta life, only yesterday was like a refreshing day. Oh just now during recess we (Amelia, Amanda, Mabel, Jiaying and I) went to chem lab 4 to meet Mr Tan about the magic show thing, and we've sworn ourselves to secrecy, be it voluntarily or not. Haha fun fun fun!
(Zoe don't bother asking me what happened in the lab)

Training yesterday was like boring. Seriously.
I forgot to bring my tee, so I wore the super tiny black tee! o: Then we sorta jumped a bit, like 2 times on the tramp, each 30 seconds?! Then Zoe tried byrani, freakayeeeee. But super cool :D I still haven't gotten a chance to see your houkong though! Nor minyi's actually cause she refuses to do anymore. >( "I am banning myself from houzhi", like wth! D:

So yup, math and LA later (which I think would be more personal statements and integration), then we're free for the weekend! Or maybe I'll be going for training, if I feel like it. s: But homework for the weekend!):

2009-05-10T13:21:00.000+08:00

Oooh. Timely.
407th post!
I was watching the ending of hairspray yesterday, after the girl (I always can't remember her name) was on the chase cause she assaulted a police officer or something like that. And then it was the song of hairspray that 407 was dancing to during Graces, and it suddenly felt like 512489119741209 days away, you know?

Good days with Jolly4Seven(:
When I was reading Breaking Dawn I didn't understand what Stephanie Meyer meant by "human memories were blur", but now I finally realise. Its like after a busy period, you can hardly remember the fun times you had, though you're aware that they're there. Or at least this applies for me only. Hur. Either way, you need a trigger so that you can remember them once again! And when that happens, that sense of nostalgia is so great that you really really wish there's this time machine to bring you back to that period so that you can treasure it more. Not that I didn't for Graces, cause we all were aware it was like the slackest time we would ever have for Sec4 life in Nanyang.

But more about that next time I suppose.

Its Mother's day today!
I went to Zoe's house yesterday to bake, and we had such a fun time luh! Hahah 5 hours in total cause we had plenty of mixture and the cake took 37 minutes to bake. And we still have to wait for it to cool down before we could put on the frosting! Oh and the frosting was like super super nice but sweet >< But we still ate it anyway, HAHA. I bet our blood glucose levels totally raised sky high during that time, lololol.

Then when I went home mummy wanted to know what was in the Prima Deli box!
But obviously I ignored her cause otherwise the surprise would be spoilt! Then during the evening she suddenly came to find me holding the plastic bag I used to carry the cake home and she said something regarding the cake (I can't remember what already). Then I was like ZOMG you opened the ribboned box?! And she said yes! And I was like super upset and irritated cause it was meant to be a surprise! ): So I (kinda) yelled at her and said it was a cake meant for her tomorrow, AND SHE LAUGHED! D: Basically she tricked me into telling her what was inside the box and who it was for without opening it. Oh darn, I'm like gulible. s: We're going to go grandma's house later and she said we'll share it with my grandma and anyone else who's a mum! But I bet my greedy cousins are all going to have a share of it anw. Heh.

Haha so I slacked yesterday off and I haven't done any work today as well, I am so going to die.
Maybe I should just hand in my math reflections and everything else late, seriously. Its like how stressing but so little marks I should just chuck it away. Oh wells.

And my sister's going to kill me alr cause I used her com, so I'm ending here!
Thanks to those who tagged (though I didn't blog for one week), heh. I'll uh, reply tags soon! And Charlene! OF COURSE I'll go for training. Its the first day back! But maybe not so often soon but yup, I'll try my best!
LOL MA KE, Sheryl didn't choose sabbats options too! We should just pon school together -megawattsmile-

2009-05-02T22:20:00.001+08:00

I am feeling like this now.
Though its an end to a mad week, a worse one is coming up in exactly lesser than 30 hours. Chemistry SIA, IH essay (OMG), Math and Physics BTs..

Okay so anyway, I really can't remember what happened in the week.
Except for Thursday! All subjects wanted a piece of homework to be handed in except for Physics. LA essay plan, math TLE.1, Chinese file, Chinese book report, chem ws 9 and 10, biology file, IH essay. I handed in everything except for IH. -beams-

Bio and Chem BTs were like ):
I think I won't do that well for it, but thank god I'm not going to fail I suppose! Need to study harder for math and physics, my MSG is like @)$*&@*)$ now luh. Basically my life has been crap and pathetic now cause all I do when I reach home is try to make myself do work/do proper work! Usually it goes on and off, like Monday I have the motivation and finish all the work I am supposed to do, then Tuesday I just slack it off and die on Wed. Something like that, its really sad actually. Oh wells, life!

Oh and I forgot to choose sabbats.
Like I-want-to-slap-myself-and-die but NEVERMIND. Sheryl forgot to choose too, we shall die together. And Zoe DON'T tag on my board to tell me am so stupid to do so, I know that myself.

Okay, that's all for this week.
I'll survive through the week and blog again on saturday/sunday okay!
Hey Charlene, I miss you and all the other juniors too! Don't worry, we'll all be coming for friday's training(: Hopefully not late (cause Chemistry SIA's due that day)!

2009-04-25T10:44:00.000+08:00

I woke up at 8.30 today (just now) for nothing! ):
I thought sabbats options ended at 10, so then I woke up early to choose. In the end, its up till Wednesday and nobody was online! o: I shall wait for monday and ask who is going for what sabbats(:

Anyway, this might be my last post for a long long time!
Okay, no, just till next weekend. Cause from now till T2W8, all the sec4s are going to go through hell. s: All the SIAs, assignments, book reports and presentations are all squashed during this period, like zomg! o: I swear I'll have one night where I won't be sleeping, I swear. Not like I want it/look forward to it. ): Thank god laoshi's off in china now, so we won't have to handle the guilt of not going for training. Heh.

Ohwells, much much homework to do!
Just finished the LA BT essay plan he made us do, now I gotta work on my AD written task! Yes Zoe, I got an extension (for myself) till Monday!(: Then I need to start on my darn chinese yue4 du2 bao4 gao4 too. -sighs-
Then I'll study Chem and have math remedial tomorrow. Hopefully I get Applications of Differentiation soon, otherwise I won't be able to do my Math BT nor pass my eoys! o.o

Tata darlings, wish me luck!
I don't want to owe homework anymore, I just managed to clear my math SIA and CLEP compo overdue work!

2009-04-20T23:08:00.000+08:00

Just a quick post before I go and do my compo!
Zoe and I ran 2.4km before school on mondayyyyyyy! Then we suddenly talked about the juniors and I told her Abby ran at 6+ alr cause she was mentioning it in the gym during the training that she wasn't there cause she came to school early. But I said she might be late cause Claudia comes to school late. And sure enough, 2 rounds after I said that, Abby popped up behind us! With Claudia! And Jo was with 2 of her other friends running too! Haha, so then we finished our 8th (and 1 quarter) round when Abby and Claudia was at their 2nd or 3rd round I think. Then Zoe ran another 2 rounds with them while I did sit-ups. After that she tried sit-ups too, and I tried out my IPU!(: And SBJ :D

Chemistry was how fun can.
Eric Tan gave us out alcohols, acids and esters quiz, and the last question was some random, retarded question which nobody knew how to do! Somehow when we were doing the quiz we were buzzing all around as well for some reason. I guess we were damn restless cause of the weather. Then we started talking to ET during the quiz can!

"Mr Tan, what on earth is the last question talking about?!"
"Its about alcohols, acids and esters." (I think he replied this or some other stupid answer)
"Can you teach us how to do pleaseeeeeeeeee."
"Its a quiz! Keep quiet, do your quiz properly!"
"But Mr Tan! NOBODY KNOW HOW TO DO THE LAST QUESTION. And its so unfair cause we never learn before and we won't get full marks!"
"Okay okay, I'll give you a few hints."

Then the whole class was paying so much attention, then he spewed out some words which were.. (...)
"disturbance, equilibrium, dehydration, (blablabla)"
"MR TAN, WHAT?!?!?!?"
Oh wells, in the end he yielded and gave us all free marks anw :D
"Seeing that you all were so noisy and hyper during the quiz, I will give you all 1 mark each for the last question."

Then after school, wewent to NUS UCC for NYCD SYF! (Whoa, acronyms overload!) We took 151 there and saw Sally and her friend on the bus when we were halfway there! :D I realised that I'd been to UCC before when I was in primary school, I just didn't know that it was called UCC. But apparently its a no-no cause Zoe was outragedly shocked! Chinese dance was fantastic. They totally deserved their gold with honours, amanda texted me the results! :D Their dance looked so damned professional everybody was in marvel and they received like the loudest applause ever.

On tuesday, 407 had no chinese remedial! :D
Mark Shone was such a dear, he stopped lessons 5 minutes before bell ring so that we could pack our bags, then released us 1 minute before the dot so that we could chiong out when the bell rang ;D But we - Mabel, Jiaying, Amanda, Amelia, Yanting, Kelly, Xinni, Jiamin, Sheryl and I - waited for 171 for a bloody 30 minutes. -.- While we were brisk walking at the underpass to marina square, hwachong seniors were as crazy as to run to ben and jerry's luh! They're MAD.
So we queued for 45 minutes and got our cone, and when we were queueing Zoe and friends cut queue (regardless of what they said: "we didn't know there was a queue/where the queue was", I mean, OBVIOUSLY EVERYBODY'S QUEUEING). then we went upstairs while zoe and company queued for a 2nd serving so that we could feel cooler, then Amelia, Jiamin and Sheryl went home while the rest went to macs where Suxiang joined us.
Had so much fun, of course 407'09 you're the best!

For we're JOLLY4SEVEN;;

2009-04-18T21:04:00.000+08:00

Okay, after much anticipation to the weekends, its finally here!
I guess after this week I am more used to doing homework every time I reach home, plus not doing work at all during training. But I still need to work on the leaving-at-5-sharp thing, I keep dragging till like 5.40 or 6+!! But I have a feeling I won't even be going for training next week cause of the stupid chinese book reports. ):

Today's been very productive! Sorta.
I finished my AD.2 and 2 chemistry worksheets, or at least what I know how to do for the latter. And I attempted the first two questions of the Pre-test worksheet 1 (math), but I kept getting distracted by my brother who was beside me mapling (the real one. according to him all private servers have been tracked and closed down, which destroyed my dream of going back for a while to play! ): ). Now I'm trying to work on the physics draft proposal but oh wells, facebook and now blogger.

Sooo, I'm going to watch 17 again tomorrowwwwwwww! <3
My aunt's bringing my sister and I to watch, no brother cause he watched it with his friends already! When I told him he was like, "EH NO, I never watch with my friends luh!" But of course my mum and I didn't believe him, lololol. So yup, I need to work on my revision for chem and bio quiz (S:) and of course this physics draft report. I need to find some chinese book for me to write the report/reflections on tooo! ): -sigh- And uh, the LA reflection on euthanasia I think. I had it written down somewhere. Thank god IH essay isn't due next week but next next week.

Okay, I think I'll go do the LA reflection instead of physics SIA.
Trying to switch in between windows to copy paste info is not a good thing to do on a laptop. Especially my sister's laptop cause her screen's so magnified everything needs to be scrolled up, down, left or right. Irritatingzxzx.

So yup, I think I'll blog tomorrow again!
Or actually maybe not, cause from experience usually I rush around during Sundays a lot, trying to do last minute work. Hmm. I need to go online to ask when the book reports are due. Grr.

2009-04-15T16:28:00.000+08:00

Hello world!(:
I realised I forgot to blog about yesterday's chinese lesson in detail!
The highlight was actually Mabel, and the mark-fighting going on in class. :D laoshi was giving out papers randomly (cause Amanda was having a panic attack at being first), and she announced who got B3, A2, A1. If she kept quiet for your paper, you're dead. o:

So this was how Mabel got her paper:
laoshi: 梅葆！(Mabel's english name in direct pronunciation translation)
Mabel: -stalked up to her-
laoshi: (in general, in chinese) What's the B3 mark? SHARONNNNNNN.
Sharon: 71.5!
laoshi: Not 71 right? Okay I was right. Go Mabel, make sure you fight hard for your half a mark!
(At this point I believe half the class realised she got 71 marks)
Mabel: -stones then took her paper-
-looks at score-
-face stones some more, then eyes widen- "F***!"
And she repeated that 2 more times, then pointed her middle finger at the paper for like 5 seconds before stomping her way back to class with this pissed off/irritated/upset face. And of course the class (knowing that she isn't THAT graceful and nice deep down) burst out laughing like crazy, and even more so upon seeing laoshi's half shocked, half amused face. HAHA.

Second marvellous point of chinese lesson was all the marks people wanted.
I was sitting with Xinni, Amelia, Amanda and Charmaine. Then when Amelia got back her paper, she told us she needed 1 more mark to get her A2! So then during the checking of papers she was looking intently at everything. Then at this particular question, I was wondering what point I missed out (I didn't realise that any marks were wrong cause so far nobody went to claim marks), so I went to ask laoshi! And then I got a mark. LOLLLLL.

Then it went this way:
Amelia: Qiaohui, you got a mark?!
Me: Yeahhhhhh. I just wanted to ask her what corrections I should do and she gave me one mark!
Amelia: OMGGGG. I need my one more mark! -shakes her paper-
Me: Why do you need an A2 anyway! Not like it'll change your overall chinese marks by a lot, there's still paper 1!
Amelia: I knowwwwww. But A2 on paper 2 still looks nicer mah!
And Amanda and Xinni who've been listening on, went -.- together with me at her.

So basically, many smart chinese people in our class got A1, with *(@$&@$) people like Soo Chin getting 9395 (2 more marks added!!!)/110 and Ma Ke with a 91/110. So that's why I feel sad over my marks now. ):

Okay so today was quite boring, shan't mention it at all. LA was bad, bad news cause he told us we had another oral component to darn blasted CA1. -sighs-
So yup, much homework to do today! Overdue Math app/reflection, chinese yan2 jiang3 ci2 and LA research/reflection on the question he asked us.
See you!(:

2009-04-13T23:13:00.000+08:00

Finally, an official back-to-school day!
Love Monday mornings, I spent the 1 half hours copying out some of the stuffs I missed out, like bio anatomy drawings and notes and what not, and math worksheet AD.1! Then we had LA lecture which somehow seemed soooo long and everybody agreed, and we went for a period of hell during bio lab. The specimens were so small and the whole class didn't know what Ms Chee was talking about luh! So we spent 20 minutes discussing among ourselves "what's bracts?!" before some brafe soul (Sheryl) I think went to ask Ms Chee and the class followed suit. I got my specimens though(: Then I was helping Soo Chin mass collect specimens from the remains of the flowers on our bench cause she only had like 3 official ones or something! Okay, I think 6. BUT YOU GET MY POINT. And we managed to find all that's required except for the 4 stupid triangle things, lololol.

Then- okay I realise that I can't remember yesterday's events!
And I'm too lazy to reach for my file so really, I'll continue from today. There wasn't anything much else I think. Lemme think of highlights for today. OHHHHHHHH, Nigel Kaw was so funny during LA! It was the last period I think, then we were at com lab researching on Euthanasia! Then after lesson ended (there were many jokes during lessons too), he was waiting for us to stand to greet him, and he saw me in my gym jacket, and went like:

NK (Nigel Kaw): I heard that gym did very well this year?
Me: Uhhh, yeah. Quite(:
NK: -nods appreciatively- Mmm. And I heard that you guys got flamed on the net by XXX (teammates/juniors, we all know who!)?
Me: O_O yeahhhhhhhhhh.. They think that our coach was biased and started flaming her luh!
NK: Yeah, heard about that! Don't worry, they've always been very bitchy (I can't believe he said that!). Not just those from gym as well, just XXX in general.
Me: Ohhhhhhhkay... o.o

Didn't know he was in the circle of gossip too! ;D
Oh LA was before recess!(: ran 11 rounds for PE, then somehow Mr Chia disappeared while we were running and didn't turn up for the whole lesson! So we just played by ourselves, and Mabel, Suxiang, Priscilla and I make a very good floorball team! :D Playing against XXX in class, reknowned for her meng3-ness, we tied with them!(:
Then we had math, lunch and last lesson was chinese cause IH was a free period! <3 We got back our chinese papers! omg, now come to think of it my results are actually quite bad. ): Oh wells. Then we slacked around in class, and Amelia, Xinni, Krystal and I were like talking about chinese pop singers, then Yanting joined in!(: Very fun, and we decided to have a mini class gathering for the Ben & Jerry's free cone day too!

Training was sooooo fun.
Zoe and I jumped on the tramp for a while, discovered that we got the too-long-never-jump-so-got-serious-upper-back-pain thing again ): Then laoshi called us in and we played relay! She made us leaders of the group. -.- So then I chose white, and so Zoe was left with black, then she made the juniors choose their own colour (without knowing our colours)! Then after that, she went like "Black go to the white leader and vice versa"! Then we were like O_O, and cherie thought that she would have Zoe, HAHA. So by a twist of fate, we won!(:
Then we played pair games (I have no idea what that's called), and we had a small discussion on CIP before we went to clean up the gym. Highlight of the day, Livia and Charlene went under the sponge pit to clean! And I ended up in between the sponge pit and the window (the gap was like 30 cm wide or something) and we all got dirty together. Charlene got the worst, I got the least (cause after all I didn't go underneath!). And then we played follow-the-leader which made my back hurt more and went home.

So okay, decent post, I'll end off now!
My sister was being a bitch and wanted to steal the com from me and complained to my mum (resulting in me having a scolding but whatever, I got the com, hmph).
I'll return com to my brother now instead of letting her play, she doesn't want to give me the extra chair in the room, so now I'm kneeling on the floor while typing. Hurts.
Okay, bye darlings! I think I'll blog tomorrow again(:
Blogging bug's back I think! :D

2009-04-10T17:51:00.000+08:00

Hello sweet!
Now that everything major is over (and studies major are impending),
I am finding it harder and harder for me to find excuses to not blog/have a dead blog! And plus the fact that today's Good Friday and we gymmers didn't go to school yesterday, I guess I owe everybody a long blog post(:

Floor comps were on 7th & 9th April, which meant a Tuesday and a Thursday!
Tuesday comps were pathetic (for me and perhaps minyi and zoe too) cause we had to study IH in the middle of all the excitement! So while we poor things studied (or tried to study), the juniors were having a hell load of time playing ~~cards (secretly)~~. The sec2s were at least decent, they were studying TKAM with us too. It was very saddening, not being able to slack when everybody else is.

Then halfway through we gave up and went for lunch at J8!
We went to the food court and ate, then after that went to buy Yami Yogurt/bubble tea/crystal jade bread! Vanessa went "missing" and was found, which totally brought up the controversy of her being in her own world. The sec2s and half of the sec4s (which is actually just livia and I) went to buy helium balloons for the floorers too, cause they wanted some!

Then reaching at 2, we realised that the 2nd half of comps started alr.
Oh, before lunch we were staring at the A optional gymnasts (the twins) cause we wanted to witness their routines on all 4 apparatus! But they kept falling, so we were wondering if they just anyhow did one cause they would have won for sure. But Sarah did a fantabulous routine on the floor, applause! :D So then when we reached the sports hall again the B optional people were starting already, so obviously we were enraptured and our IH was forgotten.

Then I reached home at 8 cause I was slacking around northpoint.
And after bathing, I studied from 8.30 till 10, then watched tv till 10.25, then went to my table again for IH. But I decided that I needed a nap so I dozed for an hour till 11.47, which I gave up on IH and I crawled into my bed to sleep somemore. So I declare that I am going to fail IH. ><>Can you throw my M&Ms back up please! and some coach below HEARD ME. It was so mortifying. He was like, oh okay! (he's some china coach I think) and then he threw, but I missed it! O_O The M&Ms tube was like slow-mo while it flew up before gravity won and it dropped again (with a very loud sound).
Then he was like, (in chinese) hey can I take some! And abby was so shocked she kept quiet. o: But he said he was joking, and threw it up again! And we failed to catch it. Third time abby caught it, and he said that if she dropped it down again its going to disappear into his stomach! Ultra cute coach, HAHAH.

And that is so not all with Abby!
I can't remember before or after this incident..

Abby: Qiaohui, do you think all of the guy gymnasts have 6 packs?
Me: Uhhhh, of course luh! O_O You look at their stomachs now, with all the tight leos they're wearing, you can totally see the shadow of their packs.
Abby: Oh, okay.
-few moments later-
Abby: HEY QIAOHUI, I saw the ACS barker guy's 6 packs!
Me: HUH, you mean you've been staring at his stomach all this while?!
Abby: Nooooooo! I saw them when he was taking off his shirt!
Me: OMG, ABBY I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU.
Abby: Noooo! He was changing, then I caught a glimpse of it while his tee was up!

And she insisted that she saw it accidentally. But Livia and I think that she's been checking guys out. HAHAHA.
Then after that, we went back up and we started playing cards! But then after a while later, XXX came and made us keep all the cards. -.- I mean, the HC guys beside/behind us were playing too, what's it with no cards in public?! But it didn't make a difference, and because we were all boreddddddd, we went to J8 for lunch again at an unearthly hour of 10.37.
Those who didn't eat breakfast/were hungry marched off to KFC (Zoe, Minyi, Jessica, Charlene and Livia) while I stayed with the rest of the juniors, and we went to slack at Popular. We were all reading books luh ><

OKAY I TYPED A REALLY LONG POST TILL GYM DINNER ENDED BUT BLOGGER DECIDED TO CHOP UP MY BLOG POST. >(
I am not continuing it. Damn.

2009-04-08T11:14:00.000+08:00

Its how the things that mean so much, when repeated, turn to dust and becomes forever no more.

2009-04-04T12:46:00.000+08:00

Comps are over.
Initially I thought that we'd all feel the relief that its over, because then, we would be able to have some days after school to ourselves, we would be able to have more time to go out with friends and to catch up with work. But as I got down the trampoline, half-sobbing cause I knew I didn't do my best, I knew that I would miss gym after all this is gone.

Suddenly, images of the juniors' letters flashed by, sentences of "make sure you come back often" vividly appeared. And it was then that I remembered we were leaving. It didn't occur to me before, cause we've all been so worried about comps, fretting over our taos, going crazy over our juniors' unpointed toes. But after all the unexpected turning of events, they have all come rushing back. There wasn't any comps-after high, cause its back to sec2 when I didn't give it my all, plus this year at sec4, when I know all this will never happen again.

Thought that being sec3 is the best. Still think that way. But its all about accepting, letting go, and looking forward instead of being attached to the past. Its about treasuring memories and welcoming the future. Its a promise then, we'll make sure we come back always, till the day we really, officially, cross the bridge.

Love, juniors,
Given my heart to nygym;

TO THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN TAGGING AT MY BLOG,
(which means Zoe not included -stares-)
I HEARTS YOU.
Comps next week, wish me luck! <3

2009-03-07T01:20:00.000+08:00

IM BACK!
GRACES'09 was the most splendiferous camp anyone can ever attend.
Made 1235872385% times more fun by your JOLLY4SEVEN classmates<3
No post-camp blues for me, everything was perfect(:
And of course, I have big plans for all my photos!
I am going to develop them and blow all the class photos up!
And pictures are on Facebook cause I can't be bothered to load them one by one up here on blogger!
Blogger should copy Facebook, really.
Bloggers demand mass uploading of photos!
Haha okay, going off way too high.

After reaching downtowneast and putting our luggage at some place of De' Marquee,
we had morning tea break!
The bad thing's that the food was served in little quantity.
Quality was superb though, so not much complaints!
Then we went for workshops after briefing I guess.

wanted to type a day by day account of Graces,
but I decided against it!
overload of homework and math SIA and chem SIA and blah,
plus depression from gym (sorta), so maybe next time!
check out 407's fb comments though! :D

2009-03-03T23:09:00.000+08:00

GRACES, baby!
I'll be off to downtowneast chalet to have fun!
No blogging from 4th to 6th March,
and if the pictures turn out real glamorous I promise loads of pictures!
Yup, adieu darlings, don't miss me! <3

2009-02-28T22:55:00.000+08:00

393rd post.
Today was insane.
Woke up at 8, and totally just wasted time all the way till 11.40.
Then I went with Zoe to Toa Payoh Library to do CIP!
On an empty stomach after training.
So I dragged two baskets full of books from the box to the counter,
then was instructed to start the blowing of balloons.
At first I was like, O_O, literally?!
Then the librarian saw my alarmed face and assured me there was a pump.
But its still quite scary.
I don't know what made me sign up for it!
I'm like TERRIFIED of balloons popping.
So then I got the electric pump, not the manual one,
and then was brought to the activity room to do it.
And then there was a programme going on!
The people were like preparing for it, cause it was starting soon.
Then there were like, 2 china guys sitting around being bored.
Seeing the librarian not knowing how to tie the balloons to the holder thing,
they helped out, and ended up helping me too. Heh.
But they were rather scary, cause they blow the balloons so fast!
It was like, -blow with pump-, and cause it was too fast..
it burst. -.-
TRAUMATIZING NOT?!
But after a while 2 other CIP students came in!
And they started helping out too.
Then I went out to distribute the balloons (thank god),
and so I escaped from the pump and left it to them plus the 2 china guys. Hehe.
Then after a while more, 2 other students (same school) came too.
But shortly next the programme was starting,
so we cleared up and made ourselves scarce.
We then went to the locker area after much contemplating of the librarian,
and cause there was no three-pin plug..
Yes, you got it. Manual blowing.
Seems like my nightmare came true after all.

So then I simply refused to blow the balloons,
seeing that the first attempted manual-blown balloon burst right in front of her face,
One of the CHIJ Toa Payoh girls had to mass blow.
the first two that entered the activity room was as scared as me.
The other one blew so slowly it was like a ratio of 5 or 6 to 1.
Jacqueline blew like 5 or 6 before Janice I think, finished one.
But still! Applause for bravery!
Then we finished- okay, THEY finished all the balloons,
and we went back to wait for further instructions!
But then the librarian was like. You can go!
I'll still award you accordingly, 3 and 2 hours respectively.
Then we were like, O_O, and the CHIJ peeps went off!
Yay they're nice people :D
So then I went to do user guides with Zoe,
but then at 2.50 the librarian said (again) that we could go,
this time Zoe too, cause there were too many CIP students around. o.o
Heehee, so we got dismissed early!
Then the 2 other CIP students who took over us were complaining.
Like oh WHATEVER, we did our best and had trauma okay!
Then we got our NYAA booklets signed and walked out(:

We bought waffles (I owe Zoe money now) cause we were starving.
Then we passed macs, couldn't resist, and bought 2 large fries.
Then we ate 70c ice cream before train-ing home!
Wanted to watch movie/go Chong Pang to check out shoes,
but I have a feeling Zoe conked out too. Hmm.
I went home, bathed, and slept till like 8.
Then till now I've been influenced by my sister and watching drama series. D:
FINALLY peeled myself away from her laptop screen,
and attempted to do DIFF.1, but I forgot how to do differentiation already!
Omg, I think I have short term memory ):

So oh wells, I have no idea what to do now.
That's why I came to blog.
Alright, I emailed everybody saying that I'm going to buy Graces stuffs tmr,
so Zoe, are we going out on a date? :D
Text me when you see this! (:
Bye darlings, I'm off to dig out homework that I can do!
There, a decent post!

2009-02-25T22:24:00.000+08:00

Haha, hey zoe!
Of course you'll thank me for making you buy that dress.
My dress on the other hand..

Anyway.
I saw like LOADS of (shorter) heels in Chong Pang,
Definitely suitable for you!
And they're gorgeous btw, I didn't buy them only cause it was shorter. ):
The highest I could find was only 3 inches, I want 3 half or 4!
You should just go Chong Pang and buy some.
PROMISE, they're really pretty.

AND I KNOW HOW OLD MDM LEON IS BTW!
(in reference to your "mdm leon story" blog post)
Yup. And I'm ridiculously happy today!
Cause I FINALLY managed to finish my work before 10.30.
For the past 3 days I've been sleeping at 12!
So yup, I'm sleeping at 11 today or earlier instead!

adieu darlings, TAGGGGGGG!<3
Someone suggest to me a good place to shop for heels and clutch bags! ):

2009-02-24T20:32:00.000+08:00

2009-02-20T20:14:00.000+08:00

Haha, hello world!
Charlene you're so easy to please.
Okay, I'm up here blogging cause LMS died.
So all the kiasu sec4s who came online way early to select their talks can't do so now!
And I'm so bored now, with Zoe (she's cursing and swearing at lms) over the phone with me. o:
We had bi3 sai4 today during training, it was rather productive!
Less crashes for B div, but the C div was kinda bad.
Poor Trudy was being really depressed.
But yup, after 15 minutes of me teaching her, she was MUCH better.
And of course, a smiling Trudy's so much prettier. hehe.
Alrighty, I guess I've really lost my blogging bug,
so tata darlings!
Pray for LMS and me getting my options. amen.

2009-02-19T19:44:00.001+08:00

HELLO CHARLENE,
surprise!

Valentine's

2009-02-02T21:26:00.000+08:00

Hello world, I've come online just to say that-
I won't be updating for very very long!
Maybe prolly till Graces, or if the blogging bug comes to me.
So yup, bear with it!
Continue tagging, and I might feel guilty enough to blog! HAHAH.
Adieu, Valentine's Day's coming!
Tell me what you want!

2009-01-26T01:11:00.000+08:00

I KNOW I'm supposed to be updating,

especially when its Chinese New Year,

but seriously, I can't be bothered.

(btw Jo, cmi means cannot make it!)

So let me just dump this blogpost here;

I koped it from a random blog. heh.

Books

are wonderful things.

Knowledge, feelings, thoughts, scenes, actions, stories and everything else you can possibly imagine: all in a piece of paper. (fine, many pieces of paper)

So simple it is, although nothing less than a wonder - created for the pleasure of every human who sets their eyes on it.

Those who fail to appreciate the art of literature are indeed unfortunate,for they are most ignorant of the pleasure derived from the indescribable journey that awaits them in every book.

And the day one comes across a book so amazingly brilliant that it gets you deeply inspired,

is the day one should rejoice.

As a literature student, I couldn't resist the urge to share with you a book which I found in a local bookstore recently.

Beautiful things in life should be shared, and my lovely readers deserve nothing less than that!

It is not only a book,

it is much more than a book,

it changes lives and finally reveals the truth that everyone has been trying to deny.

I must say, it is hardly a wonder that this book is an international bestseller.

I shall promptly proceed to present to you the book itself, as no form of literature is able to do this book any justice in expressing its absolute brilliance....

Ladies and Gentlemen, I now present to you:

Everything Men Know About Women.

Attracted by it's intriguing title, I picked up this beauty:

and was most amazed to discover the shocking truth it revealed:

...

I am deeply inspired.

2009-01-23T22:31:00.000+08:00

I AM LAZY TO UPDATE.

My week 1

2009-01-10T12:25:00.000+08:00

Updates!
After not blogging for so long, I am finally on :D
Cause I've been chionging homework everyday I reached home + getting distracted by the teevee solely, I haven't even been coming online for the past few days.
Like whoa, seems like I need more self control now!
But anyway, let me fetch my timetable and I shall update chronologically(:

Monday
There was gym selection on Monday,
so I was practically bouncing on my feet waiting for announcements to end! O:
And straight away after assembly was bio, so Ms Chee immediately started lessons.
Thank god, or I'll have to wait for the teacher to come in before I could run off!

So it happened like this:
Qiao: Ms Chee, I gotta go.
Ms Chee: -blank face-
Qiao: Uh, for CCA selection.
Ms Chee: -stares at me still-
Qiao: (begins to wonder why Ms Chee was like that) CCA selection? I got absence of leave from Mrs Wong.
Ms Chee: Oh. Oh okay then. Bye.

So then I grabbed my bag and exited from the back door to find Minyi!
Cause when I was talking to Ms Chee I kept glancing at the windows, expecting her there!
Then as I was passing the door..

Krystal: Where are you going? o.o
Qiao: Uh, CCA selection? -beams-
Krystal: OH, my god! D:
Qiao: Haha, too bad! Bye krystal!
Krystal: when are you coming back?
Qiao: -stones- (Then I realised that she was refering to) OH, no! Full day of absence! Till 2.45 :D
Krystal: OHMYGOD, I hate you. I'll be having lessons! D:

Very cute krystal.
Huaimin left class with me too, and she was waiting for her 406 friends as well!
Tingshan too I think. Hmm.
So then I was at the front door waiting for Minyi and trying to catch her attention without being seen by Rita Ong, cause the last time RO saw me, she was like.
"Wait for a while more, I have to tell the class something. Okay?"
And the whole 306 stared at me. Mortifying.
Then Effiel saw me! And saw me jumping and waving my hand at Minyi.
And she giggled. -.-
So I was like. (mouthing) HELP ME CALL MINYI LAH!
Then she turned, saw Minyi staring at RO, and laughed some more. omg.
But Minyi finally came out, so then we sprinted to the gym and had our CCA selection! :D

We were so excited at first for the first few classes,
and all of the Sec1s look quite huge compared to last year's.
And they're all bubbly and the love<3
Then we had a break, so the juniors all filed out while Minyi and I stayed back a while.
She did houkong chuai with Siang Lin watching, then we both went for a break(:
Since we weren't that hungry (cause exercising makes us full), we just bought drinks and a burger. (But my burger's fate was just too bad)

Then after that, 7 classes came, and then we were really really getting tired. O:
And started slacking off.
Cause we did all the work cause sec3s slacked luh!
Horrible. And Minyi and I were wondering what's going to happen to them next year when we (I hate to say this, but) will not be here anymore. D:
But time still ran past, and soon it became 1.30, reauditions!
Like around 30 people came, and wulaoshi told me to mark attendance with the slips of paper.
And I swear I almost died trying to do it very quickly while more filed in. ~.~
Then after that they spilt into I-don't-know-what groups to jump on separate tramps/tumbletrack, and I went to sit down a bit.
Then wulaoshi called me again and I had to help her with the namelist marking thingy.
So I have to test their sit-and-reach, one-leg hop, and hand-eye coordination.
And she let them off the tramp superbly fast so once again I had to test them quick, or let them wait.
Some of them had to leave early so I was really flustering around like mad,
and Minyi was very very amused. >(
REALLYYYYYYYYY tiring, thank GOD there wasn't any training after that.

Then I went home, did work, bathed, and went to bed like really early.
After all that, we better get good juniors.
If we still get horrible (CMI) juniors, I am not going near them at all.
Though actually I most prolly still will. -.-

Tuesday
Tuesday was CCA exhibition, but before that there were lessons.
People who were performing in the audi could leave so early! D:
We had Math and LA, so I was quite happy really :D
I saw Mdm Leonnnnnnnn!
She didn't change much, haha.
We went through probability, so I collected my first worksheet of the year!
And EVERYBODY handed in, even ahem ahem, so I was very happy.
Everything came in before recess luh!

LA was.. weird.
We got things done, could you believe it.
Nigel Kaw came in and went straight to the point,
so currently we have this love-hate relationship with him cause we will need to start doing LA homework more quickly. ._.
And he popped the horrible topic of LA oral presentation on Friday.
We freaked out, to describe it simply.
But he refused to postpone it, soooooo, D:

Chinese was held at conference room C, and we were all DELIGHTED to see leelaoshi again!
Like ohmygod. But she updated us about homework we need to do, which includes:

1. Chinese SIA draft due T1W2, Tuesday.
2. Compo writing every wednesday, as the timetable says.
3. Note book and Chinese file by tomorrow.
4. Bring compo writing paper.
5. Chinese SIA presentation on T1W8.

That's about it. Then we started on our Chinese Textbook Lesson 1,
and we split up into groups.
She showed us a video related to the lesson, and it was really nice!
She's just the bomb<3

Then it was SIL, and as she released us 2 minutes early, we were like the first class to reach! :D
Some people were earlier, but they were all like, a few people from diff classes?
James Tan was so shocked to see our WHOLE class. HA.
Seems like our class goals are coming true!
We had this talk on cleft lips, it was really saddening.
Maybe this will make us think twice about having a child. LOL.

I think I spent lunch with Tay. HMMM.
I can't remember now. Then it was biology, and ohmygod, Brain Cells on Low.
Then physics was quite okay, cause it was about pressure and Mark Shone didn't beat round the bush. He went straight to the point and told us about external stuffs too :D
And then training.

Wednesday
We had to write a letter for compo writing! D:
leelaoshi guided us through of course, and told us how to write certain paragraphs.
So everybody (to Ma Ke's delight) handed up after school.
Though Xinni had a little problem. I shall elaborate later.

Then it was physics, and yup, I think I won't fall asleep anymore!
Though I sorta dozed when he was trying to figure out how to phrase certain answers in a presentable Open-ended Question format. hmm.
Then we had PE!
We were having tennis this term, and Susan Teo looked like this auntie that I would met everyday of my life, you know.
She started lessons off with RULES, can you believe it?
Like duh, 4 years in nanyang, we KNOW puncuality more than you lah please. -rolls eyes-
Then we spilt up, top half for height and weight,
last half we had tennis lessons first, then we'll swop, and then join them back to tennis.
So then we did some hand-eye coordination stuffs, then we had to go height and weight.
And oh my god, everybody (like half the class at least) shrunk by 1 or 2 cm! D:
I am freaking short. -.-
And my weight is.. Now I am on a diet with motivation on track.

Then at tennis..

Susan Teo: Now for the ultimate challenge!
Us: O_O, what?!
Susan Teo: You bounce the ball, and as it is in the air, you twirl one round and catch it on your tennis racket again.
Us: -jaws dropped-

But some people still did it again!
Then after that..

Susan Teo: Now we shall try the ultimate ultimate challenge!
Us: -murmurs- we can't even do the ultimate, and you want us to do ultimate ultimate?
Susan Teo: But as I haven't mastered it yet, Mr Ong (I think) shall show you!
Mr Ong: So basically, you bounce the ball on the racket, then as you think you're ready, you turn your racket to the side and make it bounce on the side frame. And then you turn your racket back and continue bouncing the ball (like nothing happened).
Us: That's totally impossible please!
Mr Ong: -demonstrates-
Us: OMG HE'S MAD.
Mr Ong: -smiles at our muttering- Then, when you're confident enough, you can try bouncing the ball on the side twice or thrice instead of once -demonstrates-, or bounce it once then bring it back to the netting again thrice consecutively. -demonstrates-
Us: -jaws drop drastically-

He was like this totally mad person!
But I did it actually. HAHAHA.
After much tries that is!
I did the bouncing on the side 3 times thing!
I totally forgot that there was still the go back to the netting consecutively challenge thing! O:
But never mind, accomplishment! 8D
Then Susan Teo crapped abit on the lesson, then it was recess!
Ate with Xinni and Png Lin and Charmaine, Xinni was getting bong to poke her so that she'll be immune to pokes!
But she fell off the canteen bench once. LOL.

Then it was LA, and we did peer editing.
Straight to the point, as I said. Love his style, but I HAVEN'T DONE MY GCP LAH MR KAW. -.-
Then it was school off, god I loveeeeeeeeee Wednesdays (Odd)! :D
But there was training. :/

Thursday
We had physics, which was quite enjoyable as usual,
then it was CLC lecture!
Linlaoshi had lessons with us about this dead poet, but she made it quite interesting by playing his poems that were found on youtube!
The people singing it was terribly horrible, Amelia, Xinni and I couldn't believe people in the past thought their voices were BEAUTIFUL. -shudders-
But then the last 2 or 3 songs (different versions) were really nice(r) (:

Recess, then we had math again, and she went through worksheet 15.1!
But she found out that some people in class didn't know we had to do this/didn't understand the lesson notes, so she said that she'll spend Friday's math teaching us this topic. O:
Biology was like, oh, my god.
I mean, I love Ms Chee, but I just don't like bio you know. :/
Cause it makes my brain die with all the stuff we have to remember. D:
Lunch, then we had IH consultation with Amy Lim.
Which was totally slack as she didn't even come to our group.
Then training, as usual.

Friday
Yesterday's PCCG was fun and funny!
We played games (the whole sec4 level did) like Honey, do you love me and Memory Loss!
We played amnesia first.
So it was like, you have amnesia, so you're supposed to ask the class a question.
Ms Chee started first, so she was like. "what's my favourite phrase?"
And everybody was like, UHHHHHH.
Soo Chin: I love pink!
And Ms Chee stareddddddddd her down. LOL.

There were some funny ones, like Kelly.
Kelly: Um, what's my CCA?
Wandong: Net..ball?
Class: WANDONG! ITS VOLLEYBALL!
Wandong: OH, OHMYGOD SORRY!

And then she was trying to block Kelly who was trying to whack her with paper or something. HAHAHA.

Soo Chin: um, I don't know! Do I have a nose or something?
Class: UHHHHHHHHHHH.
Someone: No Soo Chin, you don't have a nose!

Hahah. Then we finished with everyone, and we went to play "Honey, do you love me?" ! :D
So its basically, you sit in a circle like Whacko, and the person in the middle will have to go around asking certain people that she choose, "Honey, do you love me?"
"This sentence is most likely to provoke laughter", says the instructions, so if you DID laugh, you will have to go to the centre, and the person who asked you can sit down!
You're supposed to say, "Honey, I love you, but you don't make me smile." with a straight face.
So then amanda started, and the game started(:
We wanted to aim Ms Chee at first, and I can't remember who tried, but she failed and then most people gave up.

The funny ones were like, Sheryl!
Cause some person tried Rachel, Tingshan and Kelly, but all three succeeded in not laughing.
So Sheryl got caught by Soo Chin I think! (Cute girl she is and Sheryl has this soft spot for her. HAHAH)
Then she was like. -catwalks to Tingshan-
Then she threw this tantrum like thing, and was like, TINGGGGGGGGGSHANNNNNNNNN! in this un-sheryl way, and the whole class erupted with laughter.
Tingshan still had a straight face though, that pro person, and was like. Honey, I love you but you don't make me SMILE.
And at the word "smile" she smiled and she just laughed like mad like all of us. HAHAHA.
OMG that moment was priceless.

Oh and Ms Chee got caught by I-can't-remember-who,
and Kelly got caught too!
But Maria did Rachel and failed, so kudos! :D
Yiting tried me, but failed :D
Xinni was super fail, she got caught twice.
That girl just can't stop giggling. Haha. BUT I STILL LOVE YOU!
Amelia finally got caught too, but bong didn't!
Charmaine was a total pro, wandong and maria was bad. LOL.

Then it was math, and Mdm Leon went through factor and remainder theorem!
I thought I'd be bored, cause I alr went through the notes, but she went through the synthetic division that I didn't understand!
It was actually the division my tuition teacher taught me but I didn't like. So yup, I think I mastered Chapter 15 alr! :D

Recess, then it was Chemistry.
As I missed Chemistry on Monday, thank god Mr Tan recapped with the class.
And I was frantically copying down notes on Redox Reactions while the rest of the class looked pretty bored. O:
Then it was Chinese, and we finished up Lesson 1(:
IH was super boring again cause she didn't come to our group. -.-
Damn horrible teacher.

LA was the speech, and it was very fun!
Mr Kaw: I need someone to volunteer-
-Yiting's hand shot up-
Mr Kaw: Her phone for me to time the 2 minutes.
Then everybody laughed.
Mr Kaw: whoa, you're so enthuiastic about lending me your phone?
Yiting: -embarrassed- No, I thought you said who wanted to volunteer to go first!

And Mr Kaw was in total disbelief?
He was like, you want to go FIRST. to VOLUNTEER.
Like, poor guy, maybe all his classes weren't so enthuiastic in finishing their speech.
Then Yiting was like, -nods head furiously-
"Ohhhkay, if you really want to. Index number?"
And she practically ran to the front.
Cause yiting wanted to get it over and done with, that crazy person! ahha.
Yup. And I got chosen, so I got over my speech too, so yay!
I think I've become more confident/less nervous, partly cause now I know my classmates.
Or maybe cause after being a senior in gym and asking juniors to do this and that while the rest were in Taiwan and the Sec1s during CCA selection, I've become bolder. o.o
But yup, I hope I get good marks for oral! D:
Mr Kaw calls it "give-away-marks component".
And the class totally disagreed. LOL.

Then it was training, and Minyi and I could totally feel the tramp! :D
So then we tried brushing up on dongzuos, but mine sorta failed. -.-
My qiankong's still super horrible, so ohwells. :/
Then we did PT (to aid in my diet scheme indirectly), and then I rushed off without saying goodbye to Minyi (SORRY) cause it was 6.30!
Thank god mummy was in a good mood and she waited for a while only.
and she was very amused to know that I wore my socks, took my stuff, and ran down to the audi in like 2-5 minutes. Hahaha.

Then she tried taking another way to Bukit Batok, and we got really lost.
We went all the way to Clementi before she finally took my advice and U-turned to Boon Lay, which subsequently landed us in Bukit Batok thankfully.
and that whole journey took 1 hour instead of the 25 minutes. -.-
Then we ate prawn noodles (mummy and I shared the $4 plate) while my sister ate her burger VERY unglamly. I swear she needs Graces to pass social ettiquette.

Then I went to my dentist and waited for 15 minutes for some reason, normally I could immediately go in. D:
And he altered one of my brackets so now my top row of teeth hurts DAMN badly.
I haven't eaten breakfast/lunch, my stomach is growling like mad. its 1.44pm.
Then we went to check out shoes, but they weren't nice, so then we went home!
My sister and I were like telling my mummy that she'll most prolly go the wrong way home.
"You have 90% probability of going the wrong way home!"
"I say 99.99999.." Lame sister.
But thankfully, she wanted to prove us wrong and took great care to read the signs at the side of the road. HAHAHA.

Then I reached home, helped mummy with distributing daddy's workers' pays!
It was really really fun.
Try counting a sum of $49. 364.10 :D
Yup. Then I watched teevee while doing a bit of PT,
then I went to bathe, read my book (that is not even near to 1/4 finished), and went to sleep at 1+.
Which explains me waking up at 12.15 today, and I've been typing here since 12.20!
Its 1.47 now, and I bet this blogpost is the longest that I've typed for my 300+ posts can! O:
So yup, happy reading, if you finished this post, do tag and tell me you survived! :D
Tata darlings, I'll go find food before I start on my homework!
considering sunday.

2009-01-04T20:38:00.001+08:00

School Life!
Tomorrow's the second day of school,
but we gymmers don't need to attend lessons!
I'm actually sad, can you believe me? O:
I want to go for lessons and see my new teachers!
But ohwells, I wouldn't miss gym tryouts for the world.
Cause gym tryouts symbolises fun, laughter and joy!
We're seeing new juniors!<3

Yup, tomorrow, monday, is CCA selection!
We get absence of leave officially from lessons to help out!
Our darling secondary 3 juniors can finally join us!
Poor ~~sec1s~~ sec2s, don't worry you can do so next year!
Like oh, my god I still can't accept the fact that we're sec4?
Sec3 was easy to accept, cause there wasn't much change.
This year, we'll be leaving gym after april,
and we have to study very hard! ):
And then next ~~next~~ year, we are going HCJC, omg.
But anywayy. Gym tryouts are the love.
But they're really tiring actually, so thank god there's no training after that.
Training's changed to 2345 now,
cause saturday's used for bishan training for floorers.
Occasionally we'll get saturday training though.
Monday training's cancelled cause there're more people who can't make it.
But I'm pretty sure after a few weeks many people will insist for it to be changed to 1245.
Cause 4 days of training without any break in between is really really killer.
Maybe we will discuss it with wulaoshi after next week of testing out these dates.

First day of school was really, really boring.
There weren't any lessons, just talks and admin all the way.
After 3 full years of admin, I found it really pointless. -.-
We know how to do CIP and fully comprehend what is going on in "The Nanyang World 2009", thank you very much.
Full 2 hour lectures on pointless stuff KILLS.
At least you extended our break for 15 minutes.
but having lunch 1 hour after recess was kinda pointless. o.o
I spent it in tay's classroom stoning very much really, then we had spring cleaning in class.
Ms Chee brought those cloths she always gave us, they're really good to use.
So now all of our desks are sparkling clean!
407 doesn't care much about cleanliness, but clean desks are a must.
Then we had extra time, so Ms Chee brought us to the netball courts for some frisbee!

Highlights were:
1. Maria's marvellous aim of frisbee - It hit the lamp post and richocheted off.
2. Yiting's splendid catches of the frisbee - 90% success compared to many 0%!
3. Sheryl is rather good at throwing despite popular belief that she will be violent with it.
(The first time she attempted to throw, everybody backed off)
4. Ms Chee thought that talks started at 1.15pm instead of 1 due to the 15 minutes extension of break, and so we were the latest.
Grand entrance indeed, we sat in the first 2 rows, and my neck ached after 10 minutes. -.-

Yup. And we're released at 1.45 on Wednesday and Thursday!
Its like some miracle of the school, we get 50 minutes of IH. HAHAHAH.
Nigel Kaw's our new LA teacher instead of Diana Sim, I won't be able to get good LA essay marks anymore ):
~~(unless he marks as leniently as him)~~
Eric Tan and Mdm Leon are still teaching us, they rock!
And oh my, the sec3s get such horrible FTs and subject teachers.
They got all the senior teachers that had been teaching our seniors,
so lucky sec2s who will get our teachers!
Our batch isn't that bad compared to the sec3's life. ><
And umm, the timetable timings have all changed a bit, so its actually kind of weird.
Amelia was like. "Let's just treat lunch as 12.15!"
So when we get released at 12.05 we'll get a pleasant surprise. LOL.

Training was uh. I don't know what to say, so let's just leave it as that.
I just love seeing my juniors,
especially Shuen Hwee and Zest now,
they totally make my day with their jokes/blurness!
Shuen Hwee was torturing Zest by describing her cheese/oreo cake during training,
and I was like laughing at Zest's tortured expression. Priceless.

On Saturday, yesterday, I went with Xinni, tausuan, Amanda and Jinghan to the science centre!
Amanda, tausuan and I felt so lightbulb-ish cause they two were so AHEM.
Sumo House food was really nice, Xinni was going crazy with the free refills of green tea!
Then we were talking about Taiwan and China trip experiences,
and Jinghan found out many stuffs about Xinni (all unglam) that day. HAHAHA.

Fun Facts of Xinni!
1. She gulps down orange juice (that is specifically in a glass) within a second.
2. She goes high very suddenly, and that shocked him quite a lot.
(She manhandled me when she got high, like oh, my god my shoulders hurt okay!)
3. She eats really fast when she's hungry. o.o
4. She is cuh-razy at times, but he likes it so its alright!

The science exhibit at the science centre was really fascinating,
we spent so much time on the viruses and human genes thingy that we totally neglected the magic exhibit!
Thank god we went to the magic exhibit straight away after that,
otherwise we wouldn't have time to watch it at all. ~.~
We were practically shoo-ed out of the centre cause it closed at 6 something and we didn't have enough time.
There were pulley, card and cup games there for us to try,
and 3 backstage stuffs for us to explore!
The cut off head was really cheat, now I won't believe it anymore!
I still don't get levitation, cause they could put a hoop through the object to show that there are no ropes holding it up. Hmm.
I think the magic exhibit was overrated!
You should just go for the science exhibit.
Its so much more fascinating! ;D
Then we walked all the way to IMM (tausuan and my legs were dying) for dinner,
tausuan and I bought handmade noodles, Amanda bought I-can't-remember-what (SORRY!), the couple bought Japanese Food AGAIN.
And we had a happy time eating (quietly) cause we were tired and we waited very long before we found a table at the food court!
Then Amanda, tausuan and I took the red line home while the couple went off somewhere else to date. AHHAHA.
I haven't asked Xinni what happened yet! ;D
Amanda was really tired, and she zonked out after saying bye to tausuan at CCK and telling me to wake her up when we reached Yishun so that she could listen to her music (her phone was dying from no batt).
Then I crawled home, bathed, and sat on my bed to slot in Taiwan and UK trip's photos till 2.30 before I crashed and slept till 12.15 today.
I'm such a pig.

Today, I did 720 words of my commonwealth essay! -points to my MSN nick-
Very proud of myself(:
I could have continued, the storyline's in my head already,
but I think there's something unsatisfactory about the way I wrote it!
I shall wait for my mei to come online before I show the essay to her and ask for comments :D
After all, there's no training tomorrow!

On tuesday, everything starts.
I'll be there, ready or not.

Resolutions

2008-12-31T14:43:00.000+08:00

Its the last day of 2008, and its burning hot!
I'm perspiring like mad with the fan on. O:
And of course, today's the day for resolutions!
I bet resolutions all over the blogs are going to pop out.
I had a lot of resolutions in mind a few weeks ago,
but now I can't remember them! >(
But either way, lemme try to force some resolutions out yeah?(:

Year 2009 Resolutions!
1. I will be nicer to my ~~sister~~ siblings.
I realise that when I'm pissed off with something, she'll always get some yells from me! ><
I've been nicer to her this december holidays, so I shall aim to be nicer still(:
After all, she's sec 1 next year! She better not turn into some ahlian/twit, or I'll really kill her.
And I will do my best to help them with homework and buy treats home to give them (them being my brother and sister):D

2. I will clean my room before school starts.
Anyone who's been over to my house during this hols, they would know what I'm saying!
After eoys, all the files, books, worksheets are all blablabla on my table.
And the exam papers and notes that I've taken out to study are still unfiled.
I think I shall clean my room today after I'm back with my purchases (hopefully)!
And I will try to keep it clean and neat, but in case I don't, I will find a day when I'm free to clean everything up so that I can study in peace instead of in the living room!(:

3. I will pass all my exams with flying colours.
I promise I will try my best for my exams, even if they are block tests!
After slacking off Secondary 1 and 2, I have come to realise that getting a MSG of 1 something is a splendiferous feeling.
And its made better if I can win Zoe! (But that bit is kind of impossible.)
If I don't study for my blocktests, Minyi (if you're reading this), you can confiscate my psp for a month! O:

4. I will, uh, pay attention in class. ._.
This is utterly impossible for IH classes, but I promise-
Wait. WHAT AM I SAYING.
I never listen in classes. Forget it.

5. I will improve my chinese!
After being in Taiwan, I have realised that chinese is a delicious subject :D
And speaking in chinese is really cool!
So I will try to read more chinese books (especially those two that I bought from Taiwan) so that I will get my A2 for chinese and then I won't have to take chinese in JC!
Or maybe I'll consider continuing it, but more of that next year.
I will speak marvellous chinese by the end of this year!

6. I will use Amanda's daily planner to the best of my abilities.
I will remember to write all my daily stuffs inside that planner, and follow everything correctly!
This will ensure that I finish all my homework on time, so that I have more time to talk to Tay online or play audition with my sister (points to Resolution 1) sometimes!
And I must keep the planner in perfect condition as well, so that I can show manda it at the end of next year!
Then she'll be happy enough to make me my 2010 planner too :D

7. I will (try to) sleep early.
This is related to Resolution 4 and 6!
If I follow Resolution 6, I can sleep early so that I have more energy for school!
And of course the very tedious trainings 5 times a week.
But it is hard to break old habits, so no promises!
I'll try my best.
Though not sleeping for a day sounds very very tempting :D

8. I will be nice to my future and current juniors, and not disappoint wulaoshi!
History shall not repeat ~~hopefully~~, I shall teach my juniors.
And then they'll like training and us, how marvellous(:
Of course, whatever wulaoshi says, I shall try my best to reach and accomplish<3
Training shall be a fun thing instead of something that I dread like in Sec 1 and parts of Sec 2. And the juniors shall think this way too after seeing that they have nice seniors! (Right Zoe?)

9. I will be a better person.
No elaborations here, but I will will will keep this in my mind and close to heart.
I should dig this out at the end of next year and see if I have accomplished all of them!

Its Year 2009, so I'm ending with 9 resolutions.
Going off to buy school stuffs and shop already,
in case I'm not back to blog again,
Happy New 2009 everybody!

2008-12-30T16:33:00.000+08:00

Today's end of training was insane.
We had free time around the gym,
so then after finishing the pizza sponsored by Mr Lim,
Minyi, Zoe and I were playing at the bars before we changed to the beam!
Forward rolls on the beam, then manda joined us.
And she introduced turns and stuffs to us,
so then we were going crazy trying to do them!

Then the juniors got bored of the tramp and they went to the high beam. LOL.
Claudia had this mad idea of a sponge fight on the beam!
And so Minyi joined them and they had some wrestling match down there. o.o
Minyi won of course, seniors FTW!(:
Then Tessa challenged, and she won, won before lost lost and lost.
But Claudia was picked to eat the last piece of pizza,
and boy it was really a big piece. Poor her.

Then dunno who (I think it was Claudia again!) had this idea where uh,
you hang on to the top bar,
and then you try to use your legs to pull the other person down!
So Zoe challenged Minyi,
and duh Minyi won.
Cause Zoe's legs were too long,
she had to raise them up high in order to reach minyi! LOL.

Then after that we were bored (after a fiasco),
but we didnt want to leave so early!
So then Minyi, Zoe and I decided to play sponges on the tramp!<3
We did the 20 sponges thing! -points to Zoe's blog-
Oh, I think she'll be posting about today as well.
Its like, you put 20 sponges on the tramp,
and then you do a C division routine and try to get them off/to stay!
We did the most sponges on the tramp wins one first!
Minyi and I got 17! I can't remember the rest. Hmm.
We were the highest :D
Next time when there's longer playtime,
we'll aim for 20! Right Minyi? ;D
Then we did the least sponges on the tramp will win.
So then Zoe did, and she got 9.
I was next, and ~~miraculously~~ of course, I got 3! :D
Livia got 6 I think.
And Minyi got 5!
So yay Minyi and I won again HAHAHAH.
Then Zoe wasn't happy, so she re-tried,
but the results were still horrible, too bad Zoe! Heh.

So, New Gym Records!

1. Mindy - 18
2. Qiaohui & Minyi - 17 :D
~~3. Zoe & Livia - 16~~

2. Cherie - 120

Most No. of Correct Zhuantangs

2. Qiaohui - 50
I don't remember setting this record too. o.o

Yup! So here's the records so far!
I hate Zoe's blog,
cause I can't copy paste ANYTHING.
So I have to type this all out. Irritating.
Anyway, I'm rather tired,
so I think I shall go doze for a while maybe!
Zoe when you read this,
talk to meh on MSN!
(Though you might be appearing offline)
Cya darlings, 2 days to school reopen!

Work done!

2008-12-29T17:57:00.000+08:00

380th post!
Like ohmyfreakinggod I am so proud of myself,
I finished math worksheet 5.1 and my chem worksheet!
Like finally, SOME work is done!
I'm just left with 2 freaking essays,
cause I did some of my 15.2 questions, the rest I am clueless!
And I need someone to help me with my evaluative essay,
I really don't know how to do it! ):
I need some inspiration for commonwealth essay,
maybe I'll do it tonight(:
After watching my Little Nyonya,
or maybe after I've rested a while!
Yay, studious studious mood, and OH,
I finished updating my NYAA booklet too!
And spammed email to my contacts to do chinese SIA survey.
Productive productive day, I am a happy happy girl 8D

Rants

2008-12-28T18:35:00.000+08:00

No mood at all to do essays or math,
someone save meh! O:
___
(warning, rants ahead)

didnt go for CIP today,
cause minyi and i felt too lazy to go. heh.
and zoe couldnt/didnt want to go anw.
spent yesterday night lying in bed thinking about stuffs,
cause slept too much in the afternoon and i couldnt fall asleep again.
and there was something wrong with the pillow luh,
make me neck veh the pain. ):
so slept at 2 instead,
and i couldnt wake up at all today at 10. LOL.
mad minyi texted me at 6.59 or something can!
to tell me that she didnt want to go as well. heh.
so then i replied her at 10 plus and went back to sleep.
been having vivid dreams recently,
so i woke up, then i had this urge to read breaking dawn.
(cause i was reading up on it yesterday)
till 3, and i've been stuck here trying to do my evaluative essay,
but naw, i only got the objectives typed out,
not the reflective part of it. -.-
so so, someone save meh! ):

Peter Pan

2008-12-27T19:31:00.001+08:00

Recent addiction (just an hour ago)!
Peter Pan the movie! :D

and to think that the movie was made 5 years ago. LOL.

I found out that he is like 19 years old now can! O:

He was born on 5 February 1989.

Ohwells, his 13 year old self is so much more adorable!

Movie was released 25 December 2003.

Someone made this banner/picture of Wendy and him. o.o

Yup!

Chn 5 was showing this film as a saturday home movie!

And it really got me enraptured(:

I was like a pig today, lay down on the bed at 3+,

and I just nodded to sleep while thinking of stuffs!

till 7. (how am I going to survive school?)

Need to handle turmoil soon, and fast.

unattainable, to never grow up.

Gym Records & CIP

2008-12-25T23:47:00.000+08:00

EDITED.

This screenshot was from zoe's blog!

New records:
~~Cherie's 120 straddle zhuanpas (i think)~~
Minyi's 310 straddle zhuanpas (more or less forever)

~~Zoe's 79 xijiao zhuantangs~~
Qiaohui's 101 xijiao zhuantangs.
CAUSE MY HAIRBAND CAME LOOSE. ):

I had to stop because of that cause my hair was flying lah! D:
And I think Zoe will break my record in the future as well. D:

But back to the point, lastly!
Zoe's 100+ zhuan sit zhuan qis.

So yup, I updated as promised!
And after training (which was a complete fiasco for me),
We went to do library CIP!
We were running late, so we just got on 171!
It was like a total squash cause there were many people,
and there was a jam on the way to newton MRT! ):
so when we reached Yishun Mrt, it was alr 2.40.
Then we went to the food court to eat,
and we practically stuffed ourselves with desert!
I ate wanton noodles and minyi and zoe ate yong tou fu,
and after that minyi and I ate Ice Jelly Cocktail.
But Minyi felt like eating more ice,
so we three shared Ice Kachang.
So by 3.30, all three of us were suuuuper full.
Then we went to do CIP,
and Zoe and I got to stand at the door! :D
We talked about loads of stuffs,
and quite a lot of interesting things happened too!

We discussed Graces Camp's dress themes (with loads of interesting results!)
Zoe can reach over the counter to reach the mouse while Minyi is just hopeless.
Running after people who make the door beep and saying "excuse me" very loudly to get their attention is kinda thrilling but sometimes embarrassing.
People don't know where the bookdrop is. o.o
I helped chinese PRs translate stuffs and helped them sign up to be a member of NLB! And Zoe says my chinese sounds normal (like real). HAHAHA.
I almost tripped over a pram which had a baby while rushing back to disarm a book's tag! ><
We had to tell children to stop running in the library ._.
Minyi has this obsession with "No handphones in the library".
We (Zoe and I) hid behind the cheese in an attempt to not be seen by the librarians and Minyi! ;D
Minyi texted me during CIP instead of walking over. o.o
Standing for 3 hours is REALLY really tiring. D:

That's about it!
Night darlings(:

2008-12-25T12:29:00.000+08:00

Yay, new colours for my tagboard!
There were many disasterous attempts in creating a new look for it,
and poor Zoe had a heartattack while helping me judge it!
Thank you Zoe, and jiayou in constructing your blogskin!
Back to point, I don't think the pink fits though. ):
But Zoe says its okay, and i don't want to screw it up again,
so it shall stay(:
Merry Christmas love!

Turmoil.

2008-12-24T14:39:00.001+08:00

Training yesterday was simply fabulous,
but the blogging bug's gone since everything's just so screwed up recently.
Had been having a lot of things on my mind,
things that just strike and occupy me, you know?
But all crap aside for now,
I finished up some of the odd jobs I'm supposed to do!
Getting the UK and TW photos washed, haircut cut,
was to get my phone repaired but mummy suddenly remembered about the warranty card.
Which reminds me to get it out for her.
Cleaned my room which is untouched since eoys a bit,
I think it looks um. okay fine, no difference really.
If you want to know the state of it, ask xinni, she saw the last time. Heh.
That's about what I did, I swear I hate holidays,
we stay at home and rot for 2 months.
Urgh, weight.
Remembered talking to zoe about this,
we should have extra 1 week of school in which we get forced to do all the homework that we are given,
then we really get proper holidays!
The teachers get to mark our stuffs during the 1 week too,
its a win-win situation!
But we all know schools and establishments are either too mean, or too dense to think up of this idea. Sigh.
Anyway, I really ought to be tackling my mountain of homework,
especially that piece of darned transcript.
stupid, stupid formatted com. Urgh.
Oh wells, here goes nothing,
I'll be off to attempt finishing my ws 5.1 or 15.2 now!
Try the first week of school.
Maybe you'll see the rants that you want to see.
Its a maybe though!

2008-12-22T11:08:00.000+08:00

Hello darlings!
im blogging for a while before i watch a bit of my teevee,
then rush off to manda's house to bake stuffs! :D
then after that im coming home for steamboat,
its my brother's birthday celebrationnnnnn!<3
i cant remember if i have mentioned in my previous post,
my com is spoilt! D:
all my stuffs are inside,
so i dont exactly have any mood to blog ):
but i just finished my LA eoy essay,
so im happy happy happy :D
so now, i just need to finish up 5.1 and 15.2,
and i'll be left with 2 essays to finish up!(:
okay, not to mention the freaking SIAs of course. D:
so yup, i'll blog more when school starts and life becomes more normal!
oh, and 1 more thing that's causing me to not blog,
i gained so much weight,
im going on a diet. >(

2008-12-20T14:05:00.000+08:00

hello everyone!
i know i promised that i will blog SOON,
but my com's down!
and my brother's com is down too. -.-
so there's only 1 com left for like 5 people in my house,
the time i get to use the computer is therefore limited!
forgive me pur-lease!
and someone, text me to get me to do hmk,
or i'll DIE when school reopens. D:

2008-12-15T22:15:00.001+08:00

Hello darlings,
im back from vacation! :D
going for training tomorrow (or not),
i'll blog soon!
(xinnieeeeeeee i need help with 15.2 D: )

2008-12-14T12:21:00.000+08:00

Hello world!
I'm in Genting Highlands now, and I've decided that for this post,
I shall ~~attempt to~~ type in perfect english.
That means all the caps for "I", so its kinda irritating though.
Anyway, coming here was kind of rushed.
Was preparing to go to training on Friday, but I was stopped by mummy.
(OKAY I GIVE UP WITH THE ENGLISH THING)
So then she was like, "Hey, when's your training ending?"
"Uh, one or around there?"
"Then what time will you reach home? Come home early today yeah?"
"Why? I think I'll reach home around 3."
"We're going to genting at around 5."
then I was like OHMYGOD. LOL.
At training I told the juniors, they were shocked as well. HAHAH.
So here I am :D
I didn't want to use the com really,
had nothing much to do on it anyway,
but then my brother and sister and my 2 cousins are all using the com,
and I didn't want to stone, so here I am!
I just asked Mabel about the fish spa thing that she mentioned on her blog,
and I think I know where it is now :D
but I guess I'll need to hunt for it a bit,
after all First World is really really huge.
And my uncle just told us to tell him when we're done,
he's going to bring us to the cable car :D
I haven't been on it for sooo long, like a few years?
Don't know what to blog already, really. Hmm.
Oh, 21 December's my brother's birthdayyyyyyyy ;D
He's like looking forward to it not because he'll be older (finally),
but because he gets hongbaos, that idiot. >(
And he keeps suan-ing me about not getting hongbaos on my birthday. :/
Ohwells, going to find entertainment now,
bye darlings!

2008-12-12T00:06:00.000+08:00

Once in a lifetime,
you'll get to meet someone who is exactly like you, and talks the way you talk; understand the gibberish you speak, and loves you exactly the way you are.

You know my little secrets, you know my soul.
Its like Chun & Ella, the perfect fit, butterflies in the air.
Short meets, flashing recognition, but forever there.

2008-12-07T14:20:00.000+08:00

i know i promised you pictures of my taiwan trip,
i realised that i havent even uploaded a single UK trip picture,
i understand that i havent been blogging,
and im sorry. :/
the past days have been flying by in the blur,
though at that point of time it just seems to stand still.
i just stand up and realise that its all gone,
school's starting in a mere three weeks,
i havent started doing homework, projects, studying, training,
and my entertainment sources (mainly zoe) is still on holiday.
i envy. its after all the closest thing you get to fantasy.

but i must stand up and start on life again,
its time to face probability and factor theorums,
interviews with people at 7pm just for the sake of my IH SIA,
trying to type in perfect chinese or translate things for chinese SIA,
and to face the never ending 1000 word essays again.
so world, im not ready yet,
but after today i will be.
and i'll face it with a smile.

<3

2008-12-05T20:32:00.000+08:00

its back in my bones,
the feeling of stress and overload of work.
everywhere i go on the net,
to the blogs of my friends,
i see to-do lists and year resolutions.
and once again it knocks me back to reality,
should i even go for training tomorrow?
its how i always feel after a trip,
its the joy and freedom there,
the stress and chains here.

2008-12-03T20:33:00.000+08:00

gym chalet was the BOMB,
i am so glad i asked wulaoshi to call my mum!
soooooooo, i was supposed to meet minyi at 8.30,
but guess what?
i counted backwards, knew i needed to wake up at 7.30,
but set the alarm as 8.30. -.-
i must have gone nuts due to taiwan trip. O:
so thennnnnnnn, big hooha. LOL.
chionged to school by the train way,
and then as i crossed the bridge i saw someone who looked like charmaine!
but as i got closerrrrrrrrrr,
IT WAS CLAUDIA.
my darling juniors that stayed over chalet last last night were all late!
so then we walked to the gym. HAHA.
and i shan't mention a lot about training,
just that the juniors are uh.
marvellous at some dongzuos and horrible at others,
and that i can only stand 5 jumps on the tramp before i die. LOL.
then after that, at 12+ zoe and i went to find wulaoshi,
and zoe see, im correct when i say whining works! HAHA.
so then laoshi said we need to do 3 basic pt,
and that's like the fastest time EVERYBODY finished pt.
then we ran out and after much consideration,
we went to takeaway our lunch from coro,
left the seniors,
and made our way to downtowneast(:
reached at 3,
zoe and i queued up while the juniors went to change,
and the queue was soooooo damn long!
cause there was only 1 counter for the public to buy tickets!
then there was this housewife (elegant looking) queuing in front of us,
and she caught our eye while we were feeling very pissed off with the queue,
and asked us how many counters were open.
cause zoe and i were taking turns to queue to see what happened at the front.
then another counter was opening,
but the person took soooo long to get the counter ready.
then the lady in front of us to ask why they take so long to get the counter ready.
then she came back and informed us (and we liked her kay!:D)
then we stared at the 2nd counter,
and the person TOOK UP A SANTA HAT AND WORE IT.
and she took a few attempts to wear it.
"SO LONG QUEUE STILL NEED TO WEAR WHAT SANTA HAT!"
you'd think zoe chai said it, but no!
it was the lady in front of us. o.o
we were like WHOA (at her anger) and YEAH PRECISELY.
waste time! and blabla.
indignant customers! HAHAH.
then bleh, i suddenly dont feel like blogging alr. ><
i'll update again tomorrow,
im feeling soooooooo tired now!
RECORD BREAKING SLEEP TIME (for myself),
4 half hours on monday night and 3 half hours on tuesday night!
zoe, good 通宵partners!<3

2008-12-01T23:32:00.000+08:00

2008-11-30T15:57:00.000+08:00

still Day 3!
we got back on the bus and got bus-ed (LOL) to the uni!
so there's random pictures(:

yes i know, they are a couple!

and then as we passed them the sec4s were like,

eh i also want to take a picture like that!

then our poor tourguide, anna jiejie(!<3), had to leash them in. LOL.

that's bong's hand killing the poor (seemingly yellow o.o) random stray dog. D:

dont ask me why there's so many fire extinguishers here!

amelia took another picture,

where there's a sign that says (in chinese) "fire extinguisher here",

and there was no extinguisher.

"cause all of them had been stolen to this tree!"

HAHAHAH AMELIA.

our dining placee(:

but i forgot to take pics! ><

then we had this freaking long 2 hour lecture on chinese poems,

and xinni and i were snowmen in that theatre,

it was FREAKING cold.

last night in our hotel!

Day 4!

we're leaving the 5 star fullon hotel! ):

after we loaded all our luggage (a bit of a jam at the lobby again),

we got on the bus and went to shangrila leisure farm!

we went through asia / world's 2nd longest underground tunnel(:

we were greeted by a magnificant view of the farm,

and of course many bubbles.

due to that bubble making machine. LOL.

and the two darling animals here(:

lunch!

liang hui making humongous bubbles!

meet Toto<3

and the beetle who was scared of us and pretended that it was dead. O:

and the female stray black dog that Toto was so crazy about (yes, Toto's a he!)

and of course the beautiful scenery of the farm(:

the tour guide of the farm gave us a tour (LOL) of the farm,

and we climbed up and down everywhere. :/

didnt bother posting all the photos i took of the farm,

its mountain area,

and the view's just different at all angles,

and i took 10+ photos so im not that dumb to attempt to load them. O:

we're brave adventurers that went ~~stuttering/stammering~~ walking across the wooden plank suspension bridge ~~that was damn high~~!

after the tour we were allowed 15mins back to our room before we gathered again,

and we discovered we had a balcony!

and that's the view from our hotel room(:

The Gang.

LOL. HAHAHAH I COULDNT RESIST.

its amelia and xijing and yiting with random other sec 3s coming down to the gathering place!

and so i took this candid shot. ;D

then we went for t-shirt making.

first pic's the two tour guides telling us what to do,

the second's where the music came from while we were designing our tees,

and the last one's our table(:

i made a splendibulous tee, im so going to wear it to training!

though parts look really horrible. ><

dinner!

then after that we were allowed to go back to our rooms for 1 hour+,

so bong and i went to amelia's room,

and we slacked, watched tv and some slept,

and xinni went to unload and caused some smells in the toilet. HAHAH.

and she polluted us with addidas deo in an attempt to get rid of the smell. -.-

my poor nose almost died,

and amelia's stomach almost died from laughing! HAHAH.

then we gathered again,

and apparently the rest of the farm visitors came too.

there was this 汤圆 making competition,

and also a wooden top spinning competition!

the cooked 汤圆(:

then after that we had to write messages on 天灯!

its lanterns that float up into the sky using the hot air balloon concept.

amelia writing her message.

the first picture's a close up of a lantern floating up,

its the orange thing!

the white light's some spot light from the roof of the farm. >(

then the 2nd picture's the numerous lanterns successfully up in the sky!(:

and did i mention it was freezing cold from the t-shirt making workshop till we lighted the lanterns?

our fingers were numb when we were pressing leaf patterns onto our tee,

and our whole body was chattering like mad cause the temp (as we learnt the next day when we were safely and warmly on the bus) was 7-12 degrees ONLY.

so bong and i all but run back to our rooms when we were dismissed. LOL.

ahah next post, Day 5!

2008-11-30T15:27:00.000+08:00

Day 3!

i realise that i dont have any breakfast meal pictures,

but ohwells.

they have a buffet for us,

and their cornflakes are damn nice!

zoe, the cornflakes dont turn soggy when soaked in milk for very long! O:

it was raining when we got on the bus,

which explains this picture.

first lesson was math, and after math lesson,

the teacher gave us a lot of ink stamps.

on paper, not the real thing. HAHAH.

my buddy, 曾心!

272班's form teacher, aka 国文and 课文teacher. O:

some group photos, and then we took...

ROW photos!

the first few rows were okay,

but then after that the last few rows' guys went mad and were like.

we're from row 4!

then the picture was taken.

then after that they stayed, and went like. WE'RE ROW 5!

which explains the crowd at the last picture. HAHAH.

adorable.

this guy likes bong! ;D

he asked for her email address with the rest of the boys cheering him on. LOL.

while we were eating lunch together, AHHAHA.

so then after row photos the class forced them to take a picture together!

and here's the end product(:

our buddies and us respectively!<3

random picture of linlaoshi and the heads / principal of fudan!

and as the bus was stuck at a traffic jam,

amelia, xinni (from another class), and the 4 of us ran back to class!

they caught sight of us and STAREDDDDDDDDDD.

see, bong's suitor did something wrong (we guess) and got summoned to the front of the class!

haha, then we went in, said stuffs for 5 minutes to them,

then an announcement over fudan's PA system demanded us back at the gate.

so we RANNNNNNNNNN.

then as we reached the 1st floor,

their recess bell rang too!

and seeing that there were still sec4s around the classroom block we slowed down,

and hoped and prayed that they dont run and catch up with us.

but sure enough they did,

it was so drama like!

then a girl cried on bong and blah, tears and all,

and hugs and handshakes,

i miss all of them soooooo much! ):

and we reached the gate just to discover that the bus was still 5 minutes from school,

we were like, damnit, CHEAT OUR FEELINGS!

but we got on in the end.

last view of 复旦,

大家你要知道我们很想你!

after that we went to 中央大学 to see see look look.

so im going to post random pictures of the school at the next post!

(cause if i continue uploading, the picture arrangement in this post will screw and i'll die. :/ )

2008-11-30T14:48:00.000+08:00

Day 2 pictures are pathetic!
cause i was busy having fun. you'll see. heh.

this is the scenery outside our hotel!

in the morning at 6am.

its like 8am in singapore. -.-

then the bus brought us to 复旦高中!

their school is HUGEEEEEEEEEE.

its like 5 nanyangs or something.

my god, i love it.

i think amelia would have taken a lot of photos of the school grounds,

so i'll get it from her next time she's online!

then uh, we had a very warm welcome from the head of some department of fudan(:

it was short, sweet and TO THE POINT.

unlike some principals of ahemahem.

then he brought us in,

and we walked to their assembly area, which was the track.

then they have music like nanyang too!

but they were wayyyy later.

they make the school wait for them for one full minute.

and they just sprint like crazy,

jump long jumps over flower pots and all,

its kinda amusing. HAHAH.
not to mention that some guys while jumping over,

they turn around to stare at us like we're some aliens. LOL.

but its explained later. heh.

then we stand at the side, and have assembly,

then they had like this LONG LONG prize presentation,

we were totally bored and wanted to die. -.-

then after that they announced our arrival,

and then they were dismissed.

and SUDDENLY.

bulletin boards that had our names (i mean all 69 of us)

started shooting up from the human crowd around us!

like once they said 谢谢校长,

they started turning around towards us and crowded around,

and then people all around had bulletin boards of our names,

and we were supposed to find our names and the person holding it would be our buddy!

it was damn overwhelming, and i was like.

"YITING YOUR DREAM CAME TRUE A SECOND TIME!"

she was speechless. ;D

we found our names,

and bong, yiting, pris and i are in the same class!

sec 2 though, kinda disappointing cause we wanted to see the english standards of our age people! :/

they were like whoa, HELLO HELLO 我是 ___, 她是 ___, ___, 和 ___!

totally overwhelmed, i couldnt remember any.

then we went up the stairs to their class,

and when we entered EVERYBODY just STARED.

kinda embarrassing, really.

their ~~white~~ chalkboard!

272班<3

im 2 seats behind bong,

pris's 2 seats to the left of bong,

yiting's 2 seats to the left of me(:

then uh. we just sat down, and answered occasional questions.

then their form teacher came in,

and welcomed us with a song, lyrics in the picture of the chalkboard!

then after that we had to self intro in chinese. ><

then lessons started!

50 minutes, then they have a 10 minute break,

and on and on it goes till 12 where they have 1 hour break,

30 minutes for lunch and the remaining for afternoon nap!

its damn damn cool.

the monitress FORCES them to sleep. -hyperventilates-

so first lesson was 国文,

then after that it was 课文.

the former's about the poets and their history,

the latter's about the poem itself.

we were doing 将进酒.

then uh. i really cant remember. -digs for my english diary-

oh, then it was 国明课!

teaches us about the political parties of taiwan.

equally boring, goodness.

during the 3 10 minute breaks they brought us to the basketball court,

and we passed by their hall, its AIRCONDITIONED AND BIGGER THAN OURS,

then we went past the 高中 part of fudan as well.

sec 1-3 is 国中, our sec 4's their 高一, our jc's their 高二高三 respectively.

then it was lunch after their 国明课!

they have 便当! like a lunchbox.

and fudan even provided us with metal chopsticks, i still have it!

i ate with bong in class,

then the rest crowded around and asked us questions and stuffs(:

then after that we had afternoon nap,

bong refused to sleep,

so the monitress made her (in a nice way of course) put her head down on the table.

yiting, pris and i slept.

and half an hour was actually very long!

then we woke up, and it was math.

MATH IN CHINESE IS THE SQUAREROOT.

it totall rocks, so much more interesting!

they were doing completing the square,

so we could understand(:

then after that it was english, it was so enjoyable. HAHAH.

the class told the teacher to ask us to introduce ourselves in english,

and of course we did,

so they were like. WHOA when we said it very fast.

then we filled up song lyrics,

and i got bad day by daniel powter all right at the first attempt and everybody copied from me. LOL.

there was this score system, see,

and they wanted points cause then the teacher'll give them stuffs!

then after that we did comprehension,

and the passage was about american thanksgiving,

and then the teacher (miss rain) told us 4 to read the passage,

and so pris, yiting, me and lastly bong.

after me they were sooooooo shocked and in awe (SERIOUSLY!) that they burst out in applause. o.o

and after bong, the last one, they went mad. HAHAHHA.

i've a feeling those people who went to china will get this treatment too. ;D

then after that uhh. we went for dinner, went back to the hotel,

then met at the lobby again,

and we went around the hotel area for shopping(:

2008-11-30T14:06:00.001+08:00

Good afternoon world!
im here blogging up my 1000+ photos now,
aren't you proud of me?:D
going to sieve through them and post relavant ones only though,
imagine a 1200+ photos up on my post. goodness. o.o
so here's Day one!

we got off the plane,
and waited for a freaking 1 hour before we passed the immigration counter,
and then another half hour before everybody collected their luggage.
then after that we walked out to find our tourguides,
then yiting saw a lot of people holding placards that had peoples' names on it.
so she was like. "eh its so cool if we had our names on it too!"
then after that we walked past these 2 women who held a red big big banner,
(im sorry no pictures, my hands were full with luggage)
and then she asked us if we were from singapore.
then we chatted a bit cause we were waiting for the rest to catch up,
and then she suddenly saw our teacher in charge,
and was like eh hello!
and blabla, then we read the red banner,
and discovered that it said "欢迎新加坡南洋女子中学校!"
or something along those lines!
so i was like. HEY YITING! your wish came true already!
haha, her surprised happy face was entertaining.
then we took a group photo when all i wanted was to sit down,
then we filed for the bus.
loaded our luggage, and we got on, finally.
then we travelled to...

小人国!

there was this very cute railway train ride thingy,
and the teachers bought tickets and let us on!
so here's the train :D
there were 3 stations, so we got on 2 trains.

this temple like structure is actually built!
after all its 小人国, you should expect tiny miniature people right!
fake though, of course. LOL.

i've more pictures of those small structures exhibited,

but i dont think you want to see them. :/

then after that we went to the performance hall,

and sat on wooden benches like people from the china dynasties,

and we watched a show!

it was quite cool really(:

the first one's a guy doing a handstand on a whole stack of chairs,

i swear he almost kicked the celling.

the second's 3 people standing on balls and moving across a seesaw like structure!

very the cool, they were so firm ;D

3rd's umm. this tall thingy, and they balance it.

synchro stuff, and they put it on their heads too! -ouch-

4th one reminds me of the cloth thing people do in chinese dance.

the way they get the cloth up when they're in that structure is so cool!

then after that they gave us free time,

and i went around souvenir shops with amelia, xinni, yiting, bong and xijing!

bought A LOT of stuffs.

for mummy, daddy, my 2 cousins and my sister!

then we went for dinner starving. O:

first one's all the dishes served!

and the second's amelia, yiting and xijing 打包-ing food cause we couldnt finish it. ><

then we got back on the bus and uh.

reached our hotel. fullon hotel china trust!

then we unloaded our luggage frantically cause it was a busy road there,

and the bus couldnt stop for very long.

so then we filed into the hotel lobby,

and tada. the end product of rushing us is..

overcrowding of luggage and no space to move. LOL.

but after pandemonium and all,

bong, cheng tse (cheng1 zi1, YES I KNOW, juice) and i finally got our room key,

and we got into the hotel room!

my GOD it was like genting,

just so much better.

below's pictures of our room,

just that i took it from the window!

reflection pics, so for the 2nd one you see me too. HAHAH.

its really cool<3

one post one day in case i screw everything up!

and apparently only had two hours of sleep cause she was talking with her friend.
and they're shopping around this area now.
yup, and bought 3 english books!
amelia and i went crazy with the bookstore,
there were so many books to read!

and then the day after that i'll be on the plane home!
i miss everything back in singapore,
but suddenly with the computer here i want to stay in taiwan longer. :/
