LET'S DO THE CADBURY EYEBROW!

Aren't they just cute? Many ask what have the eyebrows got to do with chocolate; i say its the art of advertisment. One and a half cup of milk, if i'm not wrong. Cadbury, reminds me of tasmania and melborne. Hah, it was 6 years ago! Those were the days...

Facebook has some page load error and so i'm back here. i can't imagine 14hours of sleep yesterday! I couldn't sleep, even until 2am. Miraculously, half of the holiday assignments are done; now with the other half waiting on my desk, calling out for me. Holidays, what holidays? This is the first school holiday break of the year which isn't packed up everyday, which is good, so i can get all my revision done for SA2. It really doesn't feel like the holidays! How many times have i said that? (Yes, i have this bad habit of repeating things i've said before, over and over again)

Twitter. The next facebook? I never want to step in that site, lest i get hooked onto it. But i've tried browzing through it, and i got lost! Can someone explain to me what's this social networking about? Just typing what's going on right now? How different is it from facebook?

Anyways, i went to the ZOO today. Family day, you see. The weather was great, cooling, windy. Thank God the smell wasn't so strong; maybe its because we went in the morning! Hah. Such a pity it was when the camera isn't in Singapore. White tiger, kangaroos, emu, hippo. The underwater ballerina of the west Africa.

REM sleep. Very freaky, why on earth do we feel immobilised? I've experienced that a few times already, never want to experience that ever again. Google says its due to the brainwaves thingy which affects the heart rate and breathing rate. I went to check that out, http://www.happynews.com/living/sleep/rem-sleep.htm. It should be of some help for those with REM sleeping disorders. Then i went to navigate around the site, guess what? http://www.happynews.com/living/sleep/taking-nap.htm. Taking a nap does more good than harm, check that out!

Until we meet again, goodbye!

LONG TIME NO SEE!

Woah, 9 months just flashed past us, just like that. Hmmm, where shall i start? Ohyes, you must be wondering why on earth am i blogging, after months of disappearance on blogger. Well, i guess its because Janelle and Glad2win keep spamming the tagboard... Nah, its because i'm waiting for the teacher's day photos to upload on facebook. I still remember the times when you could upload a whole file on facebook.

You could say the last week of school was rather slack. Monday was teacher's day concert, Tuesday was a school holiday, we started school late on Wednesday, only 1 extra lessons on Thursday and my cca ended at 3.30pm on Friday. Somehow, it doesn't seem like the end of the term, but the beginning of the great brain cell massacre, as i've always put it. It's the time to start mugging, burning midnight oil, no outings, no computer, just revision. Then it'll be the 2 solid months of holidays! Then again, it marks the start of sec4 life. Arrgh! Such short-lived euphoria.

11 hours of sleep! WHY! I felt so guilty in the morning, for wasting time which could've been used properly. Arrgh. Last night, i dreamt that my air plant decided to commit suicide and began to curl up on its own, and it kept blaming me for not watering it. LOL! I never abuse plants. It was quite weird, and freaky.

Now, can anyone explain why my back is aching?

2009-07-23T17:13:00.000+08:00

So, how are you?

Blogger looks very different; i haven't been blogging for a month and revealing my life to the world seems very awkard to me. where are all the buttons for colours and italics? why is this in the html format?!

One month, so many things happened, i don't know where to start! i stopped blogging after the NE workshop... well, today was oooookkkaaayyyy. could've been better, that's what i always say. ohyes! one very important thing i've learnt this week is: PMS is very scary, not to mention unpredictable. heh.

Just felt like updating, if anyone stills read this desolated link. haha, i'm not updating cause gladwin's threating me to...

Catch me on facebook, its easier!

2009-06-13T23:00:00.000+08:00

WOW. never knew THAT much of myself before.

Your view on yourself:

You are intelligent, honest and sweet. You are friendly to everybody and don't like conflict. Because you're so cheerful and fun people are naturally attracted to you and like to talk to you.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:

You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.

Your views on education

Education is less important than the real world out there, away from the classroom. Deep inside you want to start working, earning money and living on your own.

The right job for you:

You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:

You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

i spent 7 hours in the singapore discovery centre today! it was for a facilitators' course, somthing like that. i really don't know how on earth NE became a part of the course, but our group did very well, i can say. ahah, incorporated M1's advert into our presentation; didn't know we could put up something that interesting in such a short period of time. heh, i just realised it's kinda like wycf, 3 breaks - one before lunch, lunch and afer lunch. ohyes, did i mention we kinda went to another exhibition and managed to complete the task given? how cool is that?! and, we have a free badge. hah, i'm getting excited to free and cheap stuffs. like diaso

2009-06-03T13:43:00.002+08:00

is it me or does this holiday seems abit short? its almost burnt up, and there's a whole lot of thing that needs to be done.

well, its week 1 day 3 of the holidays. went to wenjie's house on monday; it was a long way there. cockroach and i got lost! yes, how on earth could we have gotten lost in singapore?! anyways, we managed to get there, after 2 hours of travelling from sengkang to upper thomson. did some math while wenjie and zhengy played left 4 dead. went out with my family to watch night at the museum 2. i was more facinated by how the producers managed to bring all those wax figures to life. the storyplot is quite simple and the jokes are very lame! but i enjoyed it anyway. its one of the rare moments where the family get together and watch a movie :D yesterday was long-piano, choir, and tuition. tuition was very entertaining. at least, self-entertaining. toa cah soh i wonder how the new student is able to tolerate us when he comes, he's definately in for a BIG surprise! hee. today's good. gonna start work soon, leaving the computer switched on for my restaurant city workers to manage the restaurant before levelling up

2009-05-30T00:13:00.003+08:00

every night, shooting blank stares towards the ceiling, a few centimeters further from my eyes, i begin wondering... not about facts and definitions, but about life. what's life and what am i going to do in my life to make it fulfilling? and if i were to leave this place now, would i consider my life a success or failure? at this point in time, i can only answer the first question. there's a whole lot of list i'm planning to acheive, and definately have them worked out. i'm not going to post them here, its quite personal, but this post's just a reminder for me to make a meaningful life out of the one i have today. its as though i'm talking to myself.

anyway, today's the last day of school. sports carnival+seoul garden. i still do not understand how i can get sunburnt, this means i'll begin to shed, again. then expect me to be less fair after OBS. cheered for 3/3 for their pushball finals, and 3/5 for their captain's ball finals :) seoul garden was OKAY. zhengy thought $22 was not worth for an hour's buffet, but everyone was full after gorging themselves with food and there was no more space for more. the journey back was more interesting. glenn began zooming in on ALL the photos, noticing the unglam shots of those in the background of photos. i think we were making alot of noise... anyway, i made him walk me back, just in case any thing happened; the road back is dark, and quiet.

photos shall be uploaded soon. its been a long day, tomorrow's gonna be longer.
goodnight :D

2009-05-26T17:36:00.002+08:00

it wasn't the best day of my life but, 364 more days till the next.

no amount of 'thank you' can really descirbe how grateful i am, receiving the birthday wishes and well wishes of everyone. especially when i receive sms from someone who's 3801.00 km from singapore :D

THANK YOU. i really appreciate it :D

2009-05-22T23:21:00.002+08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JANELLE SIEW!
that's the laugh i get every day without fail, somehow it brightens up my day :D
these 3 years has been great! from jumpshots to running for buses, life couldn't be more interesting...
anyway, have a great year ahead, now that you are in the 15 club, (LOL), enjoy it while you can till you're 16-exactly one year from now :D

2009-05-19T20:22:00.002+08:00

mixed feelings, just like rojak.

my inspirations always come at the wrong time. just when i totally messed up my paper 1 for english 2 weeks ago, new stories are budding in that tiny brain up there. arrgh!

facebook's dominating my life! i can spend hours on it and not get bored, believe it or not.

kranji war memorial was great. very peaceful, something which is very hard to find in this buzzing city. some quotes were touching. i can't imagine how some babies' lives were taken away... their parents must have been devestated.

you took a glass vase which i dearly wanted, and smashed it into a million pieces, right before my eyes; for reasons i do not understand.

2009-05-08T16:21:00.002+08:00

"do you think you've led a successful life?" i think mr kamal asked this question sometime last term. i have been thinking about this question quite recently... on a scale of 1 to 10, i would rate my life as 7? of course there'll be ups and downs of life, as for me, there are more ups, as for now. :D

i've just realised how deprived i was of a childhood when lionel and jerome bought kinder joy and started sharing their kinder experiences. and i tasted kinder joy for the very first time on tuesday, after about 10 years. and that's how the addiction to kinder joy started... somehow, it destresses me.

playfish! i wonder how they create addictive games like pet society and restaurant city. i bet those people are earning big bucks. and i supposed i'll be addicted to restaurant city AFTER sa1 when i can use the computer 24/7 :D

today's polyclinic opened the floodgates of all the social studies facts and examples i've learnt. healthcare services... can get some inspiration there to study SS. hee.

27th May 2009, rome.

2009-05-01T19:22:00.003+08:00

i'm missing 2/2; and the feeling's comparable to how you can't bear to leave a beautiful country when going on holiday. the liveliest thing i've done in 3/1 was the staple-bullets-and-eraser-cubes war with lionel and abdu during math lesson on wednesday. i'm deprived of sweets! SIEW KHOON!

i've just realised, my posts have been very random. i SHOULD update, according to janelle siew. well, i'm sitting at the extreme right corner at the back of the class. its terribly hot there and the fan refuses to oscillate. thank goodness for the new open lockers in the class which rearranged the whole class arrangement. at least i had the fan blowing directly to me for 2 weeks, before i have to sit in front for SA1.

lessons have been great, at least i have people to suan during boring lessons. and now sitting in rows of 4, the class seems more bonded, and i bet jinhu's feeling more "entertained". compared to the other classes, there isn't much entertainment here.

oh yes, 2 weeks of taking 159. i have to blog about this. first, i've learnt a very valuable life lesson: when the door dosent open at your stop, just take a walk to the next one. (instead of running there, giving free show to the commuters) hah, during the 2 weeks, i can say glenn and anees had their morning run on 3 separate occasions. the morning walk to the next stop never fails to tempt me to walk the whole 3km to school. that's something i wish to acheive until i graduate from andss; either walk to or from school. without janelle, i don't really feel motivated to run for buses. so that's what happened to lionel and i when 159 drove past us, its his fault!

there's so much things to do during the holidays! i can practically draw up a long list. but before that, there's the mid year exams. 1 down, 9 more to go! no, i don't regret taking bio :D

well, i'll blog after the SA1 exams. until then, remember to cover your mouths when you cough or sneeze :D

2009-04-22T19:20:00.002+08:00

what can i say? randomness is an art which needs to be acquired and mastered. like how i would say i feel like changing my facebook profile picture and the suddenly jumping topic to missing the food given in WYCF. all this while talking to myself, while listening to der gang zum liebchen. the electromagnectic spectrum song is still in my head! arrgh, who would have so much time to waste on composing a physics song?!

2009-04-18T14:17:00.002+08:00

who would have thought this day would arrive so soon.

its been 3 years already, wow.

2009-04-16T20:35:00.002+08:00

yes, i'm back into cyberspace. this peroid of time has really been a roller-coaster ride for me; with all the ups and downs of life. anyway....

today's D-DAY. the day we're supposed to maintain the already high standard set up by our dear seniors 2 years ago. the day which determines our fate. the day we've waited for. today, i woke up at 7. the choir was prepared and spirits were high as we made our way to VCH. the warm up session was quite relaxed, and i didn't feel nervous, at all, at that time. listening to the choir singing before us was quite a relief. and finally, as everyone said, from one year to a day and that day's here. that 10 minutes on stage was indescribable. from the sandy shore, to an unknown garden wandering to a gigantic nintendo game. wow. i wandered in a gardern, got kissed by someone of whom i dont know and i ended up playing mario. it was fun. and i'll never forget this day, and the days before it. went to aruna's place before going for lunch and finally at VCH. yes, i was quite emo. i thought we would get a gold. but thankfully, GWH:D and so here's the long list of people to thank!

-GOD
-MISS LIM
-MISS CHAI, MISS TENG, MR CHAN, MR LEE, HCPEOPLE
-MRS SIN, MR POH, MISS YEP, MDM LIAU
-SENIORS!
-HUNGARIAN LADY
-CHOIRSTERS
:D

and i can hear the textbooks and homework calling out to me..................................

2009-03-07T10:33:00.001+08:00

IS THERE A SANTA CLAUS?

1) No known species of reindeer can fly. BUT there are 300,000 species of living organisms yet to be classified, and while most of these are insects and germs, this does not COMPLETELY rule out flying reindeer which only Santa has ever seen.

2) There are 2 billion children (persons under 18) in the world. BUT since Santa doesn't (appear) to handle the Muslim, Hindu, Jewish and Buddhist children, that reduces the workload to 15% of the total - 378 million according to Population Reference Bureau. At an average (census) rate of 3.5 children per household, that's 91.8 million homes. One presumes there's at least one good child in each.

3) Santa has 31 hours of Christmas to work with, thanks to the different time zones and the rotation of the earth, assuming he travels east to west (which seems logical). This works out to 822.6 visits per second.

This is to say that for each Christian household with good children, Santa has 1/1000th of a second to park, hop out of the sleigh, jump down the chimney, fill the stockings, distribute the remaining presents under the tree, eat whatever snacks have been left, get back up the chimney, get back into the sleigh and move on to the next house. Assuming that each of these 91.8 million stops are evenly distributed around the earth (which, of course, we know to be false but for the purposes of our calculations we will accept), we are now talking about .78 miles per household, a total trip of 75-1/2 million miles, not counting stops to do what most of us must do at least once every 31 hours, plus feeding and etc.

This means that Santa's sleigh is moving at 650 miles per second, 3,000 times the speed of sound. For purposes of comparison, the fastest man- made vehicle on earth, the Ulysses space probe, moves at a poky 27.4 miles per second - a conventional reindeer can run, tops, 15 miles per hour.

4) The payload on the sleigh adds another interesting element. Assuming that each child gets nothing more than a medium-sized lego set (2 pounds), the sleigh is carrying 321,300 tons, not counting Santa, who is invariably described as overweight. On land, conventional reindeer can pull no more than 300 pounds. Even granting that "flying reindeer" (see point #1) could pull TEN TIMES the normal amount, we cannot do the job with eight, or even nine. We need 214,200 reindeer. This increases the payload - not even counting the weight of the sleigh - to 353,430 tons. Again, for comparison - this is four times the weight of the Queen Elizabeth.

5) 353,000 tons traveling at 650 miles per second creates enormous air resistance - this will heat the reindeer up in the same fashion as spacecrafts re-entering the earth's atmosphere. The lead pair of reindeer will absorb 14.3 QUINTILLION joules of energy.

Per second.

Each.

In short, they will burst into flame almost instantaneously, exposing the reindeer behind them, and create deafening sonic booms in their wake. The entire reindeer team will be vaporized within 4.26 thousandths of a second. Santa, meanwhile, will be subjected to centrifugal forces 17,500.06 times greater than gravity. A 250-pound Santa (which seems ludicrously slim) would be pinned to the back of his sleigh by 4,315,015 pounds of force.

In conclusion -

If Santa ever DID deliver presents on Christmas Eve, he's dead now.

the past week was super slack! :D

we learnt the japanese game's actions on monday. i thought it was quite cute! we should stagger the positions to make it look nicer. tuesday was another long day for me. janelle and i went to amkhub to get presents for people and choing-ed straight to tuition, having only 3 subway cookies for dinner. tuition's getting more fun! excluding the part where we get scolded almost every lesson for laughing non stop at something. wednesday was you-know-who's birthday. glenn played the piano during recess, and i thought it was quite different. oh yes, we gave him a photo frame labelled COOL, with a spastic photo of him attached. i was thankful i didn't have piano that day. thursday is my official slack day. :D friday, we went to pizza hut for emo lim's birthday lunch. but janelle, audrey, sarah and i choinged backed to school in a cab as they had cca. the taxi driver drove at 90km/h! NUS choir concert on friday. posted photos up yesterday. and yesterday was longgg. today. today. today. i feel emo, cheated and tired. sigh.

4 more months and,
the thought of missing school for one week makes me happy

2009-02-22T19:18:00.003+08:00

NUS choir concert. i'll update soon, got to revise history!

2009-02-14T11:06:00.002+08:00

what was i blogging about yesterday? oh ya, the fire drill. it was fast.

anyway, its gonna be a lifeless valentine's day today. let's see... homework.eat.homework.homework.homework..... :(

its 8 more months to the 3-month year-end school holidays, 5 more months till july and 4 more months till the june holidays. :D the "6 months will pass very fast" seems true, especially when you're busy with homework and school. in 5 months time, the midnight prata will begin, watching movies and football matches in the middle of the night and not forgetting the stayovers. then again, there's school... i'll be deprived of sleep. i wonder if this time we can really go to the places we wanted to go in december. those 2 weeks were short; one moment we were in the airport welcoming them, the next, sending them off.

2009-02-13T23:10:00.002+08:00

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, WINNIE!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JINHU!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYAN!
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

well, this week wasn't really great. in fact, i was rather emotional the whole week, for whatever reason i do not know. all in all, we had 2 "suprise" Amath tests, the actual Amath test, geography CA1, geography map test, and chengyu tingxie. talking about tests, i've been thinking if the old structure was better.

anyway, the fire drill today was one of the shortest one i've had in my life! so, amanda, justin and i were discussing about the fire drills in rosyth and how we would get scolded most of the time and the average time of a fire drill would take 1 hour. haha, and how someone's comment about the grass catching fire made the whole school assemble in the void deck of the block of flats opposite school.

i shall update more tmr :D

2009-02-11T19:45:00.002+08:00

its already 2 in the morning. imagine a jazz bar, smoke filling up all the air avaliable, a handful of men and women, slouching on their seats as they watch the lady, dressed in a glittery red evening gown easing herself unto the piano seat. she begun playing her usual jazz pieces, creating the atmosphere which was the same every night. she was so familar to those songs that she became numb to it; not giving in to the feelings and emotions of the songs, though her songs were played so much expressions. many thought she was drunk to be able to play so well every night; on the contary, she wasn't. she was fully sober. then, why would anyone who wasn't drowing their sorrows in alcohol be playing the piano at 2 in the morning for those who were there?

2009-02-07T13:51:00.002+08:00

the past week was long. having tests everyday is quite draining for the brain. and the start of extra lessons were simply ______. now, i'm staying back everyday in school except wednesdays for cca and exta lessons. its gonna be fun! oh, who am i kidding?!

here i am blogging while the pile of homework is rotting away on my table. let's see:
-chemistry practical graph
-history's homejoy
-physics worksheets
-english vocabulary exercises
-math examples
-chinese paper corrections
-geog revision!

i have no idea what to blog about. haha. maybe i should just do my work.
facebook's getting more boring

2009-02-01T15:47:00.001+08:00

i shall update the blog now since the photos are taking so long to upload unto facebook. this week's been great. happy chinese new year! gongxifacai. collected a reasonable amount of hongbaos, they'll probably be going into the bank. new year with the cousins is fun. especially taking random photos while the adults are catching up. we went to siyi's place for the annual lion dance performance. it wasn't really fantastic though especially when the dragon dance was very disturbing. anyway, lou hei was, to me, redundant. try lou hei-ing with your left hand while snapping away with your right one. halfway through, one of the chopsticks dropped into the carrots and gabriel manged to get it back up, heh. it was unusually quiet, maybe there wasnt any adults shouting all the chengyus. wii-ed the night away, all this time taking unglam shots. snap unglam shots, post it up on facebook :D watched the manu everton game. thankfully, i slept at the 50th minute, there wasnt anymore goals after the penalty. VDS is the new record holder! :D

2009-01-23T22:55:00.002+08:00

CNY celebration in school today was ok. the usual performances... went for reunion lunch with janelle, audrey, winnie, alicia, benjamin, ryan, zhengy, yuening, weile, jared, qing xuan, lionel. waited for 1 hour for the food to come. >:( a hungry man is an angry man. but we used the time to catch up and reminisce about the good old days :D

2009-01-22T21:10:00.002+08:00

ignore the online status on my msn. i'm actually busy facebooking and blogging :D

today went rather well. the results of the CIP project was expected; majority of the people wouldn't let us into the homes to spring clean. put yourselves in their shoes, would you open up your doors to a group of students and allow them to spring clean to clock in for their CIP hours? anyway, my group cleaned the exterior windows of 2 houses, with newspapers and rags. the second half of the CIP project was quite chaotic. its like photo taking time; first with janelle, laoda and shamini, then with mdm hee and mr khoo, not forgetting 3/1's second informal class photo of year 2009. i'm quite amazed that 2/2'08 bonds remains. bus ride home was long and the lift was spoilt; talk about exercise.

anyway, the holiday mood has kicked in, already. after 3 late-night revision, my biological clock says enough is enough. thankfully there isn't much homework tonight since i completed most of them during the week and tomorrow we're only having half a day of study, before having CNY celebration on the eve of the eve of chinese new year's eve. heh. then we shall go for reunion lunch at pizza hut. this time, i'm gonna make my $6.50 worth. 2 reunion dinners in a row before the visitation starts... and there's one more before the 15 days of new year's up. somehow, angpows seem to divert the main purpose of celebrating the new year and catching up with distant relatives which you'll only get to meet once a year. talking about distant relatives, my goodness, i'm lost for words... every year, its the same thing, they ask for your age, school, major exams, blahblahblah. someone press the stop button please! i don't blame them, but it does get irritating when you visit all your distant relatives in a day and you anwser the same questions all over again. maybe i should come up with a name card with all my details, haha. just kidding. or i could turn the tables around and start interrogating them instead! :D

2009-01-21T19:19:00.002+08:00

wednesday, 21 january 2009; week 3 and a half.

its a vicious cycle. monday till friday, and the weekends burnt which we use to complete the piles of homework given; its amazing how i'm going to survive. speaking of weekends, CCA openhouse was great-the atmosphere. went to SK's place to get the newspaper article done, the website nearly freaked me out. thankfully it was only 8pm. sunday was a long day, as usual. managed to do my revision for geog and history with any spare time i had. something happened on the way home which made me hopping mad, i shan't blog about it. thankfully the geog test was on wed and history on thurs :D i was prepared. choir on monday was fulfilling. we managed to complete the Japanese Game song :D 159 gang! haha, choinging home yesterday and today with glenn, janelle and lionel with harry liu is fun! i think the main source of noise in the bus was from us... oracy today was simply L-O-L. topics ranged from gayism and HIV to the abuse of children.

so, that's a super brief summary of the week i've had. 2 more days to go till the vicious cycle repeats itself.

2009-01-16T19:30:00.003+08:00

happy new year!

after 16 blog-less entries, i'm back :D it doesn't feel like 2009. its like year 2008.5... weird huh.

sec3 camp was great. dragon boating, high elements, abseiling... aeroplanes! the darn midnight flights which woke me up every night. i was, and still am disturbed by the bathing system-2 people in a cubicle, out by 5mins. ahah, i managed to survive it, excluding the 5 mins part, hee. campfire was awesome! but i think most of the people were sleeping by the time our class was out to "perform" and i'm guessing 50% can't get what's going on. haha!

the past week was tiring. meeting up with the a cappella people at 7 in the morning to rehearse our song is super cool :D i'm still getting used to having lessons end at 2.10, especially on thursdays... and, i'm not used to having common tests every (other) mondays! i think i just screwed up my english paper 1. the class is great! ahaha. we seem to be more bonded (in a way) after the camp. i am amazed by the stamina of my classmates- managing to not sleep in boring lessons and focusing so hard on the lesson going on so much so that when other students stomp their feet along the corridors, they don't notice it (i admit i'm guilty of this...)

today went rather well. practice in the morning was good, improving. :D lunch was great, due to the fact that i had lunch with 2/2 people. classmates forever! we really should go on a proper lunch/dinner! haha!!

facebook deprived.
anyway, i have to go now, do homework. D:

CCA OPENHOUSE, join choir :D

2008-12-31T10:21:00.002+08:00

cya next year! :D

i have no idea what to blog about. but i have to, since the next time i'm gonna use the computer will be on weekends. i wonder how i'm going to survive without my daily dose of facebook... maybe i should terminate my account, temporarily. heh.

2008 has been a great year, and i thank God for everything :D

collection of year 2008, up on facebook.

:D

2008-12-22T15:12:00.002+08:00

acapella practice went rather well today...

went to youtube and searched some acapella performances. well, take a look at this, quite interesting :D

2008-12-21T23:15:00.002+08:00

i was entertaining shanghai delegates since 18 dec 08(photos up on facebook). supper for the past 3 nights, and supposedly football match tonight(thankfully, its cancelled :D) catching up was great. and joel gets drunk on milkshake, while milo has a whole new effect on me. wayne's bugging joel for massages, and glen enjoyed youth service. joshua making prank call with jeri's phone and jeri laughing, by his side.

christmas is coming soon and i have no idea what to give.

2008-12-18T23:56:00.003+08:00

quick update. a picture speaks a thousand words :D

2008-12-13T23:10:00.002+08:00

DAY #11. 13 dec 08

help me thank mr yong for his kindness
i have to put it(cello) back into its coffin
closing ceremony. it was great! but great isn't really the word to describe the awesomeness and the excitement which is pumped with every heartbeat of mine throughout the concert. thank God we managed to snap some photos with the clinicians :) this experience is really one of a kind and i feel very lucky to be one of the 260 festival choir member to have gone through the camp and festival :D i've learnt many new things throughout these 11 days with the 2 guys ;D
so much photos in facebook!

its over!

2008-12-12T23:47:00.002+08:00

DAY #10. 12 dec 08

obama is cool!
we had lunch and dinner with stamford raffles
today is a long day. final rehearsals before the closing ceremony tomorrow. 3 of us we laughing like crazy baboons on the MRT, travelling towards city hall for dinner. i think we were high from the everlasting melody. (seriously, that song has to get out of my head now!) subway-ed for dinner. the concert was great! and for the first time in my life, i wasnt drowsy during the concert. maybe its due to the fact that i slept through one-thrid of the lecture. seriously, throughout this camp, i have "attended" my first geography lesson and my first biology lesson! haha. i learnt about convectional rain in my first geog lesson, if i'm not wrong, 3rd dec. and today was bio lesson numba 1. :(
SOMEONE took a photo with stamford raffles, and i felt like a tourist taking that photo...

10 down, 1 more to go.

2008-12-11T19:44:00.001+08:00

DAY #9. 11 dec 08

der gang zum liebchen
morning's rehearsal was great! i cant really remember what happened today...
Es glänzt der Mond nieder,
Ich sollte doch wieder
Zu meinem Liebchen,
Wie mag es ihr geh'n?
Ach weh', sie verzaget
Und klaget, und klaget,
Daß sie mich nimmer
Im Leben wird seh'n!
Es ging der Mond unter,
Ich eilte doch munter,
Und eilte daß keiner
Mein Liebchen entführt.
Ihr Täubchen, o girret,
Ihr Lüftchen, o schwirret,
Daß keiner mein Liebchen,
Mein Liebchen entführt!
anyone going for tmrw evening's concert?

9 down, 2 more to go.

2008-12-10T21:10:00.002+08:00

DAY #8. 10 dec 08

yes, no maybe so?
8 days. woah. and lucas could tell me that it felt like we've been going to CCAB for a year. today's session was great! mr bob chilcot and dr. eugene rogers. its really interesting to meet with different conductors and experience their styles. guess what dr rogers' first question was. "what's inditing?" heh. i'll enjoy the remaining few days participating in WYCF. then its back to business :D

8 down, 3 more to go.

2008-12-09T21:30:00.002+08:00

DAY #7. 9 dec 08

i forgot what i ate for breakfast today!
ahh. opening ceremony. i think the children choir had a better quality than the festival choir. after the WISC performance at the esplanade, VCH suddenly seems so small...

7 down, 4 more to go.

2008-12-06T16:00:00.002+08:00

DAY #6. 6 dec 08

remember the breakfast you had today!
its a miracle i'm still blogging here, now. but the practice in the morning was super tiring, given the amount of sleep i had. heh. i'm so gonna sleep on monday!

6 down, 5 more to go.

2008-12-06T15:54:00.002+08:00

DAY #5. 5 dec 08

we have no balls!
ahh. thank God practice finished early today. :D combined sectionals in the morning, and after lunch was time for both choir to show each other what we have learnt for the past week. i have been an alto 2 for my whole life in choir, ever since p2. but i'm sining alto 1 for 2 songs... i now understand why the alto 1s usually get lost. this week is really great and tiring. we learnt 11 songs! in 5 days! hah!

5 down, 6 more to go.

2008-12-04T22:13:00.003+08:00

DAY #4. 4 dec 08

sopranos! you're gonna sing this same tune 5 times during the entire song. if the person beside you sings wrongly, slap her... or him. if not, i'll go over and slap!
very tired!! :(
must we end every practice with everlasting melody?!

4 down, 7 more to go.

2008-12-03T21:08:00.002+08:00

DAY #3. 3 dec 08

let's bring the house down!
whoo! time flies when you sing, sing, sing. today's atmosphere was super high, higher than the esplanade's concert. i'm really suprised, it was the guys who were the ones who were "higher" than the girls. they started singing the SOPRANO'S "repeat as desired" portion of the song(everlasting melody) and began to clap their hands as they came into the music room, after their sectionals. then as we ended the session with the song, it was also the guys who screamed during that portion. then again, i think the main aim for the guys to want to sing that song was to let it get stuck into mr terrence's head. ahahah. i cant wait for mr eugene roberts to come, wait till he hears this!

3 down, 8 more to go.

2008-12-02T22:00:00.000+08:00

DAY #2. 2 dec 08

i must remember this memorial day, 2nd december 2008, 12.45pm
let's start from the top; control, alternate, delete
there's so much to blog about today!
once you lau hong, they'll die.
what's inditing?

today's practice was better, maybe because of all the funny things occuring throughout the day. we finished learning all 5 SATB songs! :) but i still get lost occasionally, here and there. not forgetting the german lyrics. how on earth are we supposed to memorise that?! i had a super hard time memorising tsubasa wo kudasai... back to the funny things which made the 8 hours at evans road a more memorial and enjoyable one.

conductor: *sings as he says* are you ready?
choir: *replies as a chord* yes
conductor: *lost for words*

sop: what's 'intiding'?
conductor: explains in great detail, mentioning that it was for queen caroline
tenor: issac asks what's the meaning of 'intiding'
the whole STAB choir replies, almost the exact same thing the conductor said

there were some others, but these are just the main ones i remembered. after choir, the rain was horrendous! if only it was snow... benedict, lucas and i couldnt really decide on who should get the only umbrella to get out of that place. in the end, lucas took it. we treat our senoirs well, you know. but the best has yet to come; there was a pool of water up to the ankle, and no one wanted to get their shoes wet so... we climbed onto the narrow path(about 15-20cm in length), as the road slopes down, the higher we got from the ground, and we jumped off that path. phew. then i slept all the way home on 156.

2 down, 9 more to go.

2008-12-01T20:55:00.002+08:00

DAY #1. 1 dec 08

hi i'm terrence and she's a toad, or so i heard.
thank God i'm still alive and blogging. 9 till 5. woah. at least we managed to finish learning, combining and did abit of details today :) but still, working with different people from different school with different styles is very difficult. you'll never know how tough it was in the morning practice. the 2 people beside me were singing 2 different tunes! can die ar. on a lighter note, i think we're all well fed over at CCAB. 10.45, 3.45: tea break. 1.15: unch break for 1h 15mins. we were tempted to go over to eat lunch. ahhah. but the lunch they provided was not bad la.

1 down, 10 more to go.

2008-11-26T09:58:00.000+08:00

2008-11-24T23:08:00.002+08:00

my biological clock tell me its 10pm, when its already 11.12pm

excitement, joy, accomplishment. :D

tonight's concert was a blast! although our performance was about 20 mins, it was AWESOME! ahahaha. thank God everything went smoothly. considering the fact that the choir was unsure of some entrances and the lyrics.

haha, there isnt much more details, just that the whole choir had a great time. :D

2008-11-23T20:43:00.000+08:00

so, how was service today?

2008-11-21T22:56:00.002+08:00

Those Were The Days
Once upon a time, there was a tavern
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Remember how we laughed away the hours,
Think of all the great things we would do

Those were the days, my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we'd choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way

La La La La La La
La La La La La La
La La La La La La La La La La

Then, the busy years went rushing by us
We lost our starry notions on the way
If, by chance, I'd see you in the tavern,
We'd smile at one another and we'd say

Just tonight, I stood before the tavern
Nothing seemed the way it used to be
In the glass, I saw a strange reflection
Was that lonely woman really me?

Through the door, there came familiar laughter
I saw your face and heard you call my name
Oh, my friend, we're older but no wiser
For in our hearts, the dreams are still the same

2008-11-21T09:13:00.002+08:00

you know chain mails having a touching story as the introduction and asking for a certain number of names, and asking the last person(the one who meets the quota) to forward the list back to a certain person, of course the email address is in the mail. but, correct me if i'm wrong, this is all a scam to get thousands of email addresses and the person who receives them would sell them to advertising companies which would send the people(those who placed their names on the list) advertisments and junk mails, and sometimes to an extend of spam mails. so what's the point, you ask. the point is, STOP SENDING THOSE EMAILS!

back to reality, not much has happened in the span of the last 5 days.

on monday, grandmalowedadmommejeriandjon went to watch madagascar 2. it was really funny but you have to watch the first movie to really understand the characters personality, which makes it more funny, in a sense. thank God the cinema was less than half full, without and screaming kids and no one kicking my chair. oh yes, choir went well on monday! :D
tuesday was long. grandmamommejeriandjon went to the bookfest and bought alot of books. hte journey there was long, bumpy and fun! ahah, jon and i sat in the first row of the upper deck, reminds me of the trip to ocean park in hongkong. that bus ride...
wednesday was great! maybe it was because the piano lesson was cancelled last minute. but thank God for that break. the last 2 lessons didn't go too well.
thursday, i had math tuition at 9 in the morning with janelle. how cool is that, huh. choir domindated the rest of the day. from 1.30 to 6. it wasn't good, but still i thought we could be better.
this leads us to today, friday. about 9hours into the day and i haven't done much. woke up, breakfast and here i am, blogging and of course, facebooking.

is IE slower than mozilla? its been about 3 weeks since i used IE. and once i open many tabs, the whole computer lags. arrgh! dad has a phobia of this com contracting a virus and didn't allow us to d/l anything, for the time being. not even google chrome :(

random fact of the day; jon listens to jonas brothers' songs! haha. and i didn't know that Year 3000 existed until he was blasting that song from the computer the other day. ahaha!

2008-11-19T14:56:00.002+08:00

i just remembered that went to popular's bookfest yesterday, with jeri, jon, mom and grandma, when jeri asked me how many books we bought. such a pity it was that the english books section was less than half the convention hall. nevertheless, i got 5 books, jeri, 6. buying books is fun! especially when there is 20% off and $11 off the total price :D. i can say these books can last till next june/july. :)

2008-11-18T10:37:00.001+08:00

2008-11-17T22:16:00.001+08:00

madagascar escape 2 africa! :D

2008-11-14T23:21:00.002+08:00

yes, i was moody all this week. but it isn't what you think it is. ahh, let's change the topic.

i've been thinking weirdly, as in, i have weird thoughts.
like thinking of solutions to have clearer windows on buses, instead of oily marks left behind by some sleepy passenger. tissues? nah, people would take them. pillows? that's unrealistic. the best idea i came up with was to hire people to clean up the 'mess' in the short span of 10mins when the drivers have their breaks. this boosts the economy by opening up more jobs for the unemployed. on the other hand, who would want to have this kind of job and how much could they make a month to pay bills and stuffs?
another thing, sometimes, when i wait for people or buses, i start to imagine. imagine i was invisible... like, watching time and life go by like nobody's business. haha!
and, would anything be different if i wasn't here? what would be different, how different?
its quite cool to think about such stuffs, in a positive way of course... gives me a thinking/questioning mind...

which reminds me of communism and animal farm. the leaders made the people lose their questioning mind by propaganda, dictatorship, censorship and stuffs like that. all i know is that i do not know anything quoted from some famous person. i think the study of communism is quite interesting; how on earth do these people come up with such ideas? maybe their main purpose was to take away the rich people's property and make everything equal; just out of jealousy.

after weeks and perhaps months on facebook, i suddenly feel lost in www.facebook.com. suddenly, nothing seems fun and interesting; applications become boring and the same everyday...

ahh. maybe i should study... nah. its the holidays for goodness sake! its the time for us to rest! not bury ourselves in books. don't you feel that the people complaining about too much work and feeling too tired the most during the school term are those who wear themselves out during the holidays by studying just so they can show off to their friends that they are hardworking. isn't this going abit too far? i mean, yes of course we should read up and get a headstart for the year, after all there must be a balance in life. and that's what i'm planning to do. get my homework done by next week and start preparing for 2009 in december; like reading up, buying new socks, getting new pens... you know, the usual. by the way, thank God for long lasting socks! lol. i survived on 2 pairs of school socks this year! cool huh. haha!

tetris on facebook. the only game to kill time. :)

2008-11-13T16:35:00.002+08:00

:(

and i have no idea why i'm either frowning or expressionless for the whole week, its as if someone came and stole all the emotions in me. :|

jesslynn, get a life! that's what's going through my mind these days. its either facebook, choir, homework or my book(My Favourite Wife). seriously, reading is fun. i've been hooked on books and had to read something before i sleep to make me sleep; it was like a drug, just that i don't go high on books... haha. someone, suggest something for me to do!

i've been thinking about the future, not next year... the future further than that, 10, maybe 20 years from now; what will i be doing? what can i do? what do i want to do? so much thinking, too little time.

i'm looking forward to Don't Forget The Lyrics, Singapore.

2008-11-10T09:30:00.002+08:00

great! now the blogskin is back, i dont have to search for the perfect skin and waste my time editing it! here's the long-awaited update for all those people out there, hoping for a revival of this dead blog.

first, my tooth. it actually was quite simply done. some drilling and filling (i still don't know why that dentist had to scare me with terms like, "fractured", "crowning", "root canal" and "$800") and it was fixed! thank God the process wasn't as painful as i had expected it to be and the treatment was free :D

my holiday life, this time, is quite relaxed(for now). choir.choir.choir. i'm enjoying it :D

went to kenneth's party on saturday.

i had an eventful sunday, which would give me phobia of driving in 10 years

don't talk to me about arsenal winning manutd. i owe wayne a 50cents ice-cream

i'm reading tuesdays with morrie.

facebooking.

i'll be posting up kenneth's party photos later this week, in the meantime, you can check janelle's blog out for some photos :D

2008-11-06T15:46:00.002+08:00

FACEBOOK has been dominating my week! and i didn't realise that my skin has some sort of problem when view on mozilla firefox, until janelle tagged, haha. in the mean time, i'll check some skins out and redo the whole blog, including an update(i know this blog's quite dead). so, yeah, back to www.blogskins.com to find the perfect one! :D

2008-11-04T09:30:00.002+08:00

OBAMA FOR AMERICA!

2008-11-01T22:24:00.003+08:00

AH! today was long! my day started off with NCHS's open house. long story, let's get to the main event of the day-get some gifts for kenneth and his brother. met up with the rest at 1220 at YCK, thankfully i wasn't the last. we took a 1hour plus journey all the way to tampines. upon arriving century square, we found out that the sakei sushi buffet promotion was on weekends(sigh). after much consideration we decided to go to cityhall, to have steamboat. hah! i never regretted the $21.30. how should i describe it... food, fun, laughter, noises, ahah!! yea all that for 2 solid hours!! ahhh............................................. here are some photos...

so you see, the guys we discussing dota, most of the time during the journey to tampines.... compare and contrast the difference of cleaniness of the tables; before and after. aahaha.

2008-10-30T22:34:00.002+08:00

happy birthday popo!

ahah. so we had a birthday party for her at her place. it was really great! jeant managed to dig up some ancient photos of you-know-who... everyone had a great laugh! i mean, seriously. we sat in the corridor to have our dinner, us-the cousins, or should i say, the cousin! yup, we were missing an 's' today. we were all imagining.. photos taken today would be dug up 10 years later when our kids start laughing at us. haha! photo taking time was the best, best of the best! i felt like it was a wedding... everyone going up to popo and taking photos with her, in order of their age. LMAO. oh well...

2008-10-29T22:50:00.002+08:00

read up on fractured teeth...

Teeth are remarkably strong, but they can chip, fracture or break. Teeth usually break as a result of trauma — from biting down on something hard, for example, or from a blow to the face. A child may fracture a tooth falling off a bike or curb during play. Cavaties that have weakened the tooth also can cause chipping or fractures.

If a large piece of the tooth breaks off, it can hurt because the nerve inside the tooth may be damaged. If the nerve inside the tooth is exposed to air, saliva, or hot or cold foods or drinks, it can be extremely uncomfortable.

When a tooth cracks or fractures, it may or may not hurt. You may not notice the damage immediately. Minor tooth fractures are unlikely to cause symptoms. Deeper fractures can be painful because the damage may extend to the nerve inside the tooth. Pain from fractures may be constant or may come and go. Many people feel pain when they chew because as they chew they apply pressure to the tooth. As the fractured tooth bites down on the food, the crack in the tooth gets wider, but once the pressure is released, the crack closes again.

Larger fractures may cause a portion of the tooth to break off.

-http://www.colgate.com/app/Colgate/US/OC/Information/OralHealthBasics/EmergenciesInjuries/DentalEmergencies/FracturedandBrokenTeeth.cvsp

i have to read up more. just so i know what the dentist(s) will be doing to my teeth. apparently, my case might be complicated as the 'fractured' tooth already has a filling on it... arrgh!!!

2008-10-28T19:08:00.002+08:00

always remember, the dentist is just as afraid as you are ahah. some random quote i saw at the dentist's. i was supposed to go for a routine check-up and it ended up as a x-ray session for that darn tooth. the dentist said that there might be a crack, or a nerve problem.... !!!!!!!! $550 for crowning, $800 for root canal. i don't even know these terms! worst case senario, the tooth has to be extracted. somehow, this seems to be the best, in my opinion. saves money + short term pain; only problem is that there'll be a hole when i smile :D ahah. my mom checked my dental records from the school, guess what the dentist said. it might complicated... so, i have another dental appointment tomorrow... :(

2008-10-28T15:47:00.002+08:00

JESSLYNN HAS SUCCESSFULLY TRIED OUT A TIM TAM SLAM, AND IT WAS GREAT!

so, what's a tim tam slam you ask. take a look at this video i found on youtube, its quite lame, but the content is more important! i pray hard tim tam biscuits wouldn't be on tomorrow's headlines due to the melamine scandal.

:D

2008-10-26T19:17:00.002+08:00

do you ever wish you'll never forget the dreams you've dreamt? it always happens to me, somehow or rather, i'll forget the nice dream which i had, having only little snippets here and there. the worst part is, nightmares are the dreams which never fail to leave the brain. up till now, i still can remember my very first nightmare(or so i thought i was my first) when i had it in like K2. does this happen in real life too? like how easy it is to remember the bad things which had happened, or the negative side of a person and how difficult it is to think up of something good which had happened, during a tough time, and a positive side of someone you really dislike.

have you ever missed a person up to a point where you just go crazy? i wonder... how crazy would i be? who would be the first person to make me feel this way? i've seen people go crazy because of someone and sometimes i wonder, what triggers their emotions? the parting moment? the emptiness in their lives? or simply just because they can't live without them? i don't ever want to be in such a situation...

do you ever think about the future? what you'll be doing, where you'll be and what your life would be like?

would you rather be a big fish in a small pond, or a small fish in a vast ocean?

last words

2008-10-24T23:51:00.003+08:00

from macdoos to SRP; bubbletea to cafe cartel; duel masters to taupok; club penguin to facebook... and the list goes on...
here's an appreciation post to the people whom made lower secondary school life much more interesting for me :D

SISTERS! :D
JANELLE! you're one of the first few friends whom i've made in sec 1, i still remember the funny jokes we made about the teachers during boring lessons and behind their backs! oh yes, IPW was super fun with you in the group, i remember we got scolded for laughing too much!!! its great having you in the group, you never fail to bring laughter even if the project is stressful, cracking jokes at the wrong time and living a happy-go-lucky life. you're one of the main reasons why some lessons aren't as boring as it seems, adding life into the class with jokes, comments and pranks. even your taupok session wass quite commical! i think you're the only daring girl to try that out! :D

SIEW KHOON! my life long partner for sec2! thanks for the sweets! oh yes, its quite fun being your partner, although sometimes you talk too loud during lessons which everyone is snoring away... you never fail to keep me awake those lessons, talking to me throughout the whole hour! you're a great help when doing groupwork, coordinating stuffs and helping out wherever you can. oh yes, some of your comments are quite commical! so you think you're funny ?! haha! and morning assemblies are less boring when we start to talk and pay 0% of our attention to the people on the platform. i hope we'll be partners next year! :D

YI JUN! maths genius! i think you really deserve the title 'lao da', acing all your subjects! sometimes i think you are simply indescribable; choinging home at the sound of the 1.10 bell on mondays, tuesdays, thursdays, and the 2.10 bell on wednesdays! sometimes i find it hard to believe that you play dota!! pass me the secret to acing maths, then we'll conquer the world!!!!! i still remember having recesses with you during the first few days of sec 1 life before getting to know SK and janelle. haha! its really great to have you as a friend! even though you dont speak much, i still think you're quite funny. i dont know how to describe it, but sometimes, you just make me laugh!!

AUDREY! thanks for sharing your problems with me, i hoped i was of help:) so, how's life? ahaha. i still remember the first words you said to me do you believe me if i told you i had short term memory and would forget your name if you told me? that was when we were going to the hall to learn the school song. but later you told me that that was fake. ahah. its fun going back together and talking about anything and everything on the bus, how we felt about certain topics and the homework for the week. sometimes, your ideas are whacky and sometimes they are quite interesting and creative :D

JACK CHEAH! lol. i cant remember how you became our sister... ahah. but you never fail to make us laugh with your ridiculous theories and philosophy. i think you're quite matured, compared to last year, but at times you can be super lame!! ahaha. it was fun having you in class and in some discussions. i think you've work hard for your maths, don't be too discouraged! just keep practticing and putting in effort, you'll make it someday! sometimes, your random remarks and comments makes us laugh and it would kinda brighten up the day.

159! :D
GLENN! i think you're a 5 year-old stuck in a 14 year-old body. LOL. your jokes and pranks never fail to make me laugh. sometimes i think we're quite lame to come up with the morning smell theory, physological effects on certain stuffs and competing on who can clap for the longest time. i'll never forget the masks you brought, and the pranks which came along with them... you've made 159 journies much more interesting with your ridiculous comments on life and the traffic lights. morning bus journies during the exam period was great, at least someone could go through the facts before everyone in class starts discussing about the paper...

LIONEL! ahah. from alpha male to SPK. what a great difference! lol. i could see how glenn has changed your life; in a way, you've become more talkative... its cool having you in the 159 gang though you dont talk much during the journies. i'll always remember you as the slowest boy eater in class. and for once, yesterday, you couldn't finish an average serving of nasi lemak. ahah! work hard for next year :D

ZHENG YOUNG! zhengylee. LOL. first you looked like a polar bear, then a housefly and now, a cockroach. haha. your lame comments and jokes never fail to make the 159 journey more interesting. the class has become colder this year, don't you think? ahah. thanks for cursing me to get the same marks as you for math in SA1, i still think that incident was very funny yet amusing! work hard for your SYF next year! :D

4+1 :D
JEROME! ahh. the top in class sitting right in front of me during the exams. i think you're quite no-link 24/7. that has made our trips very intersting and funny, when you just comment on something which the rest of us were talking about something else. your teachers' impersonation is quite funny and identical at the same time... glenn you want to be a clown, i can make you a clown... ahah! and your zhou jielun singingat daryn's place... simply too good for words :D

DARYN! kiasu kid! haha. thanks for reminding me of the homework and stuffs during the weeks throughout this year. it was fun studying maths at your place that day though we spent 1/4 of the time checking out ah wei on the web. ahah. get your PS3 quick so you wont say you're bored on msn anymore. don't get hooked on it though... :D

Chinese class :D
BENJAMIN! ahah. it was quite cool having you as my partner for the second half of this year during chinese lessons. although its quite a chore convincing you that manutd is so much better than liverpool, it was quite interesting discussing about football during the boring lessons. ahah, but manutd's still the best!!! LOL. chenlaoshi made the funny remark on our zuowen. ahem! who was the one who copied?? :D

RYAN! i think its quite fun having you along during the trips and lunch outings we had. haha. the pasir ris park trip was cool having you along. don't get too quiet inside! it was quite weird yesterday when you became silent! it was fun getting to know you more in the gossip session, heh. cya next year in chinese class! :D

WINNIE! emotional hardcore! LOL. it was fun having chats during ITC classes and on our way to chinese class! ahaha, your lame jokes makes me laugh almost every single time! tell me more next time, so i wont sleep. i cant wait to have more chinese lessons with you next year :D

2008-10-23T22:16:00.001+08:00

I'm lying alone with my head on the phone
Thinking of you till it hurts
I know you hurt too but what else can we do
Tormented and torn apart
I wish I could carry your smile and my heart
For times when my life feels so low
It would make me believe what tomorrow could bring
When today doesn't really know, doesn't really know

I 'm all out of love, I'm so lost without you
I know you were right believing for so long
I 'm all out of love, what am I without you
I can't be too late to say that I was so wrong

I want you to come back and carry me home
Away from this long lonely nights
I'm reaching for you, are you feeling it too
Does the feeling seem oh so right
And what would you say if I called on you now
And said that I can't hold on
There's no easy way, it gets harder each day
Please love me or I'll be gone, I'll be gone

2008-10-23T21:43:00.004+08:00

i suddenly remember jerome and glenn singing i'm yours and check yes juliet on the long road in and out of pasir ris park. which reminds me about the discussion on 109, 'our voices sound different to ourselves and to others'. that could be the reason why jerome thinks he can sing well, haha. just kidding:D

what will 2009 be? i can't imagine...

2008-10-23T19:08:00.002+08:00

IN LOVING MEMORY OF CLASS 2/2, 2008

this class never fail to cheer me up when i'm down. one way or another, someone in this class have made an impact in my life. the first two years in anderson secondary school was interesting, fun and exciting being part of this class; although many a time we would end up in deep trouble. through the events, may be it negative or interesting, we have forged friendships which would be unbreakable, bonds which cannot be broken. i still remember the very first time we 'displayed' our trademark-not coorperating with any authority, it was during the sec 1 campfire. not a single one was willing to contribute and in the end we made a fool out of ourselves. thinking back on this incident, it was quite funny to think that the whole class was stoning at the back of the lead dancers during the song. what makes 1/2 and 2/2 special is our special and unique character in each of us. intellegence, creativity, sarcasm, uncouthness, emotional characteristics when mixed together forms 2/2. although we will be separated next year, we still can have chances to hang out together and have class gatherings.
thank you for all the lovely memories :D

the last day of school. every child's favourite day of his/her life. but for the first time in my life, i dreaded this day-never wanting it to arrive, running away from the reality. for once, i'll miss my class, the class which has brought happiness and joy into my secondary life. memories made will be very hard to forget with this very notorious yet hyperactive class. anyway, we-janelle, ryan, jerome, weile, glenn and lionel went to parsir ris park for cycling. thank God for the cool weather despite the drizzle here and there. we cycled for about 2 hours. for the first part, we choinged to the end of the park and on the way back, we stopped at the playground to play. glenn took spastic videos while on the jumping thingy. we had the time of our lives, letting our hair down(figuratively) and playing like little kids like there's no tomorrow, or so glenn says. the satellite 'ride' was quite freaky, half the time i thought i was going to fall off. the second part, we had 'gossip session' interrogating each one there, it was quite personal so i shant post it up here. anyway, we went to white sands for lunch/dinner at 3.20. lionel thinks he has wasted his excercise time while eating his hot fudge sundae with a large milo. we started talking about melamine in milo. and we all agreed that glenn would be the most affected, him choinging about 2 packets or more a day. next, we went for neoprint. i guess it was long since we took a neoprint and as a result, we could make quick decisions on which pose and which photos we wanted. but in the end, the photos ended up quite nice! :D i'll really treasure these photos... so this was how i spent the last day of my lower secondary school life.

i'll probably update later since there's no school tomorrow and i have to let jon use the laptop in about half an hour's time.

2008-10-22T17:21:00.002+08:00

artsfest. how should i put this? it wasn't THAT fantastic, neither was it THAT boring. nevertheless, kudos to the organising comittee :D i have to say, i really enjoyed ATC's realisation. don't forget the lyrics didnt go too well though. anyway, i really appreciate the effort made by the sec2s for organising the event! the only act i watched on anderson's got talent was mrs kamal's one. haha. so the day was rather boring. flag raising-> wandering around school-> ATC's realisation-> more wandering around school-> dont forget the lyrics-> class.

we did an interesting activity in class. writing farewell notes to our classmates, just like the one we did in youth camp last year. it was fun writing for my friends and classmates and at the same time, think of how life would be without them in the class... :( the day didnt end too good though. the year ended the way it began or so i thought...

photos up on facebook.

just finished 2 hours of piano. my fingers are dropping and i'm having high blood pressure.

2008-10-21T19:32:00.002+08:00

YESTERDAY was an emotional day. i dont wish to talk about it. now, i understand the pains of a section leader. we celebrated grandma's birthday in the evening. so much food on the table reminds me of AMK3. i had my first few sips of red wine. not all wine taste like this quoted from godma. but it was very bitter! i had 2 sips and then i felt drowsy, ahahah. the chocolate cake was very delicious.its from prima deli, i hope i dont get sick... haha

TODAY we had leadership workshop for the whole day... some games are interesting, like the ANDSS book of records and the stock market game. other than that, the theory lessons were more boring than the most boring lesson you'd ever have. i think about 1/3 of the class didnt come to school today. and i think they made the right choice. haha.

I shan't blog what i'd intended to blog about.

2008-10-18T23:10:00.004+08:00

LET'S talk about today. so, in a very last minute decision, the cycling was cancelled and i decided to join janelle, ryan, jerome and weile for wild wild wet! ahah. met them at sengkang to catch 89 to parsir ris... the 4 hours spent was great! lol. we went on the slide with the gigantic float the most, like about 5 times? the first few times we were facing the wrong camera. then we went a few rounds in the shoik river, mrs kumar's favourite attraction there. we wasted like 20 mins waiting for the tsunami. clingling unto the tube wasnt a fantastic idea. LOL. it was a do-or-die situation, 4 people clinging unto one tube at the 1.8m mark. hahaha!!! we were very disappointed when it came, i forgot why we were disappointed. oh yes, i sat on the slide up thingy with janelle. it was quite scary and exciting at the same time. i think that would be my first and last time on that ride. (it reminded me of the viking in korea! it was horror!) and then, we played a fool on the sky rider, speeding when the lifeguard wasnt looking and cycling at less than 1km/h when she signalled for us to stop. LOL. the last few rounds around the shoik river was quite fun. lol. i forgot what happened. lunched at BK. we waited for 40mins to get a free shuttle bus to ikea in tampines. ikea was fun. we tried on every bed, sofa and chair there were. according to pauzi, we are encouraged to do so... exploring the different designs and discussing our opinions on them. played at the children's corner and the soft toys were (...) rats were scary, elephants were cute, cockroaches were intersting, and the beaver was life-like. we talked about how mr wong would upgrade his ruler to pencil to towel to rag to carpet etcetc. lol. and jerome was posing with furnitures and the stuffs, imitating mr wong. grabbed something to eat at the cafe downstairs, and according to pauzi, its free refill. 27-ed back to popo hse.

BTW, we're all burnt. and i still can feel the waves you feel in the shoik river. lol.

YESTERDAY was sorta eventful. apart from the lessons, which teachers go through the paper, it was quite nice to get back to the long friday routine. choir was fun, we learnt 2 new songs. i think the first song is nicer. it sounds like a fairytale song... i went to the WYCF briefing at CCAB. thank the driver for knowing the place. driver: evans road ar? near botanic gardens?? us: (few seconds later) err... ya....... thankfully we didnt get lost. back to choir.
kiran says that it was like watching lost, season 5 to 10, during sectionals. LOL. half the time, i was figuring out the rhythm and notes, sometimes i get lost and cant find where the altos are singing at. LOL. now i understand the pains of a section leader. dinner at lao beijing, to celebrate low-e and grandma's birthday. build-a-bear workshop seems interesting. but super expensive....

HERE'S some random stuffs...

POWERPUFF girls. haha. this used to be my favourite cartooon, despite the violence... its still very enjoyable now. there's new episodes!! haha. but i'm not too crazy about this now... thank cartoon network for the 2 hour episodes everyday, with new episodes and clearer cartoons :D

BEN 10's jon favourite cartoon. i think its quite interesting, when watching it with him. see that alien with the black and white skin and green lines? that upgrade. and that small guy in front of ben's foot? that's gray matter. haha. i think these 2 aliens are quite comical! and cannonbolt too. that's my favourite. short and big legs, her cant really run. but he can roll! lol. i should watch more of this cartoon with jon some time soon. haha

I might be watching the manutd game tonight... depending if i knock out before the 12.25am kick off. haha. i hope liverpool draws!! and i think i've taken too long to type this post... i started at 11.20? haha. back to facebooking:D

2008-10-16T16:26:00.002+08:00

HEY! ahah, so jeri has broke her toe. LOL. i knowm, i shouldnt be laughing. (since i have to help her get all her stuffs done...) lol, just kidding la. she's quite handicapped without her second toe on her left foot. i'm still wondering, how on earth could she get that injury by playing badminton?! haha. but, all the best to the toe. :D

TODAY, we got back our results. the future looks bleak for my maths. darn. the rest of the day was rather slack. meeting with the sec2s for arts fest. it took 1 hour. it was quite interesting to discuss about all these. oh yes, i was reminisciencing about our very first maths, science and english lessons. how we were all quiet and wondering what these teachers are like. and the very first day of school; awaiting for the new year's suprises and events to unfold. the good old days...

YESTERDAY was a day of talks and speeches. sort of. streaming talk was (...). i think they should've given the talk before the year end exams. so we could grasp what subject combination would be offered. anyway, i'm quite in a delimia. literature? history? arrgh... spelling bee was boring. i was quite shocked that most of the sec1s contestants couldn't spell 'rhythm' correctly. i heard, that is the longest word without any vowels in it.

ITS very relaxing now. no ccas, exams, homeworks. haha. until tmrw!

2008-10-12T20:37:00.002+08:00

TODAY is the most emotional day of my life. no, this shall NOT be goodbye. its like a see-you-later kinda thing. of course, later refers to 2 years or so... and for the first time in my life, i saw andersonians showing their true emotions; unlike us typical teenagers who put up a brave front to hide our emotions. so yea, i was(and still am) coping with the emptiness in my life. there's one less person to talk to in choir, one less person to go out with to class gatherings, one less person to talk about primary school stuffs. I'LL MISS YOU. on the brighter side, i believe you'll make a difference in the lives of the people in china like how you've made an impact in ours :) you know what, you wive me one more reason why i should go o shanghai for holiday, adding on to the long list which i already have. :D

SERVICE today was ok. i have to admit, i found it difficult to concentrate during service and worship and stuffs, after what happened in the morning. so, ZONE4's top secret for hg1 is almost in its final stages, just the confirmation of the dates and stuffs:D i cant wait.

ZONE camp! ahh.

north.northeast.east. so near, yet so far.

2008-10-11T22:16:00.002+08:00

GOODBYE. that's the worst thing i ever want to say to anyone. (or maybe not). but its always sad to say that and i dont want to. well, tomorrow morning i will have the most difficult time of my life trying to force out that word to TABITHA. its sad. dont go! promise us that you'll visit. :D

LET'S drop that subject. Fish and Co.'s dinner today was one of my worst. i had to help jon finish like one quarter of his fish when i was on the verge of puking. i think it was the oil or something. i could tell he was far worse than me. after drinking his soup and the butter mussels thingy. thankfully i DIDNT drink the soup and had only 1 mussel. haha! i had 5 lemons in my iced tea... it had a little tinge of fish smell. LOL. so now we all know where the 5 lemons came from; my drink+jon's meal+my meal+jeri's meal+jon's drink. LOL.

2008-10-11T11:15:00.002+08:00

THANKS janelle and joshua! ahah. so, now i know what's up with the skin and everything. but is that the reason why the javascript pop-up keeps coming when i am in my blog? haha. i feel quite dumb. anyway, how do you find the skin?

FRIDAY was super slack. with like 5 people? ahaha. our lowest was 4. we talked about random stuffs during refreshments and broke the 10.15 rule. ssshhhhhhh. hee. we're supposed to use the book for 2 years? haha! we at chapter 7 already! :D

SO, i've been thinking about things to dpend my time on. i shall not waste my holidays and use the computer 24/7. here's a list of things which i want to get done.

1. Clear the table. (its only half done since wednesday night)
2. Practise my piano at least 1 hour a day
3. Help mom out during the day
4. Spend more time with God.
5. Clear up some of my facebook applications
6. Prepare for next year(i'll get this done in december)

2008-10-10T17:02:00.002+08:00

I think there's a problem with the skin. Janelle and Jeant think so too. So, is there anyone there who could help me fix this problem? ahah. i dont really understand all the html codes.

TODAY was fun. 2h of badminton. its just like camp. almost seeing friends everyday, doing fun stuffs together. talking about camps.... sigh. i shan't talk about it anymore. oh yes, lunched at causeway point. the 1 hour journey back was nice. i had a nice nap, this time with nobody falling onto me. ahaha.

HERE'S some things which audrey and i discussed about when zhan rong said-'18 mins to woodlands ONLY.' ahem. here's a compilation which we came up. and the title which i came up of this compilation shall be: useful and redundant things you can do in 18 mins.

1. Take a train from AMK to Woodlands
2. Solve more questions on the maths paper=more marks for maths
3. 18 more minutes of home econs anybody?
4. Go for a run and shed off some weight
5. Enjoy more horror/comedy/drama in a movie
and the list goes on...

DID i mention that this skin is only temporary? i think i'm kinda bored of the old one. and i just realised that its difficult reading the small fonts. thankfully, this skin has bigger fonts and the photos and videos dont get cropped off. only thing is that, the tagboard dosent refreshes itself. so, dont spam. just click ONCE, and refresh the whole page. dont end up like me; spamming my own box.

its the survival of the fittest

2008-10-09T20:52:00.002+08:00

let's look on the bright side of life this shall be my motto from now on. although things may happen and the future look bleak, just keep looking on the bright side. of course, we need the strength from God. please do not get offended, but really, just pour out everything to God. He's there. and yes, you will feel strengthened and feel like your burdens are lifted off. its quite comfortable and relaxing actually.

BACK to today. spent a whole day at sister jack's place. was late meeting up with the guys. and we bought $30 worth of junkies which we didnt really finish. watched around 1 and a half movies? movie marathon! half the time i was either behind the pillow which shrank, or was using my phone. lmao. finally, we got to play blind mice! its been like 1 year? since i've played with the 2-2 people. ahah. reliving those carefree days. like what we are doing now, carefree and relaxed.

TOMORROW will also be a long day. a default friday. lol. T.G.I.F.T. (thank God its friday tomorrow). and i get to enjoy the long holiday. haha.

2008-10-09T08:06:00.002+08:00

DO we complain too much? just recently, during the exams, many people were complaining about the stress, revision, etc. and now, i see some of my msn contacts complaining about the holidays; like, i hate the holidays. seriously, do we complain too much, especially when there is no need to? by the way, am i complaining about people complaining?

I'M glad i'm meeting some peeps later...

MY table is cleared... 50%. i have to wait till i get a new sticky board till everything can be done...

2008-10-04T23:39:00.002+08:00

http://simpsonizeme.com/ this is so cool! lmao. try it out, all you simpson fans. i tried it and it looked funny. im not saying im funny.

ANTS are invading my desk because i spilt some drink! darn you!!! so i powdered the whole desk, according to my mom, the ants will die from the smell. lol. we'll see about that. but since i put the powder, i havent seen any ants so far...

SCIENCE is giving me a terrible headache! seriously, i cant remember those stuffs. tell me why! i spent the whole day doing notes and stuffs, but nothing seems to get in... ayiah.

I'm temporarily changing my blogskin. something which might have bigger fonts. LOL.

THINGS to do after 8/10/08:
1. clear desk! get the ants out!!
2. go out; as far as possible, dont rot at home!
3. make cookies, cakes whatever, for family, friends etc.

CANT think of anything to blog now. facebook! im watching the blackburn manutd match today

2008-10-03T11:16:00.002+08:00

you know what, i never know what to type to begin the blog post. haha.
i have quite a number of things to blog about today.

EXAMS, is probably one of the hot topics everyone is talking about now. i have to say, time files very fast when doing a paper. why cant time pass as fast as this during boring lessons?! and i realised, how we take our daily loud noises for granted. noises from a pen dropping to a bottle dropping. how LOL is that? yes, 3 more papers to go. its 3 months holiday after that!!

WALL STREET. what's up with them? haha. i find it quite confusing when reading the news... is the $700billion bailout good or bad? i think its bad. haha, they are taking the money from the taxpayers right? oh well...

CHINA MILK SCANDAL seems like its been here for so long. everyone's checking their products for the 3 magic words: "made in china". haha. do you think we, the global market and everyone else, can trust china food products again? reading the online news the night before made me quite mad. china actually knew about this long time ago... few months back? and yet they covered it up. sigh, i pity those whose kids have fallen sick due to this...

159 JOURNEYS for the past 10, or 9 days have been somesort interesting. one question i never fail to get in the morning would be"eh, wanna choing to the next bus stop? this bus like got no seats..." lol. ironically, there would be plenty of seats in the bus. hygenic glenn doesnt press bells in the morning, fearing the germs would be spread onto his breakfast.

CHAMPION LEAGUE game was interesting for manutd. finally, some goals from the $30mil player. chelsea seems to have their injury problems back... again. so i guess manutd has geared up, considering the 2-0 win over bolton(including the miraculous penalty given) and the 3-0 win over AAB. :D

2008-09-28T19:23:00.002+08:00

everyone's watching F1.
i should catch some of the action.
since its the first night race+singapore's hosting it!!
btw, i've heard dozens of F1-ERP jokes. i was just wondering, do the racers really drive through some ERP gantires?
i'll have to see...

chinese paper tmrw.
die liao.

2008-09-26T23:13:00.002+08:00

time for the miscellaneous stuffs on the com.
friday you are being loved!
facebook.blog.youtube.etc,etc.

cell was ok.
thanks to estella we spent more time laughing than slapping.
word was done in 20mins! although the record timing was 10mins...
haha.
so, talking to ZR on the bus makes me miss my stop! arrgh
had to walk all the way back....
talk about bus... i should write a letter of feedback to SBS. before i go on, let me tell you the 161 story...
the bus took more than 40mins, with, i dare say, more than 60 people waiting for the bus. after awhile only a single deck came. people in the front squeezed like mad while there was plenty of space at the back. nevermind... then after like 30mins or so, came another single deck bus. much to our dismay. at this time, more people had arrived = more squeezing. thankfully we had gotten ourselves a space on the bus... i dont see why SBS cant have double deckers during peak periods, especially on friday when everyone is going out TGIF-ing. today i had to squeeze with so much more people. it was really annoying when people dont say excuse me and just pushed their way through to get out of the bus. one more thing, WHAT ON EARTH IS THE PROBLEM WITH STANDING AT THE BACK TO ALLOW MORE PEOPLE TO GET ON THE BUS?! YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE IN A HURRY, YOU KNOW. ok, i have said my piece.
moving on... so, now here i am. doing the miscellaneous things.

i think, when you sit beside a person, you get to know them better, in most cases. like for example, sitting beside SK for the entire year was super fun. lol. funny comments, sweets, jokes, and the forever-quote-of-the-day "so you think you're funny". haha. and like how sitting beside benjamin during chinese lessons makes me know that he still loves liverpool, despite them not winning the EPL since who-knows-when. haha. i'm sitting beside kenneth and glenn. quite the extreme i would say. the smart and the not-so-smart who claims he's an all-rounder in sports. as they say, jack of all trades, master of none.

2008-09-26T17:01:00.002+08:00

well. very sorry for not updating last saturday.
no, it wasnt because i was studying, nor was it that i forgot.
it was really something else...

oh ya, but last week was super rush during lessons.
teachers covered as much revision as they could.
past year papers dumped on us.
revising 3 terms of work in 1 week.
haha.
i cant really remember... lemme think.

oh yes, my very last PE lesson with 2/2 was ruined.
really. the person you saw there was not the worst.
i was really controlling and supressing the anger brewing within.
and discussing female things with guys and mr ng in the library.
i wonder why the guys dont feel disturbed...
chinese was filing and whatnot. oral and stuffs...
mdm hee was so nice to print out the answer sheet for me! and printing 9 revision ex papers for us :D

then there was the chelsea match.
'impossible is nothing' nicat27 quotes.
hello, if 'impossible is nothing' why did chelsea lose in the champion league's final?
haha.
anyway. let's not talk about this.

paper 1 and history today,
were easier than i had expected...
maybe mr poh told us the main chapters...
anyway, THANK GOD i made it through the essay questions.
my hand was about to break off from my wrist. LOL

so, choir performance was good, or so i heard...
i saw my aunty! lmao.
yes, i enjoyed myself, even though the concert in april was far more interesting.
haha.
was quite shocked at some people's attitude though...

2008-09-19T23:11:00.000+08:00

i'm tired.
update tmrw.
today was long. longer than usual.
goodnight.

2008-09-13T22:04:00.002+08:00

GREETINGS! to all earthlings who still read this gonna-be-dead blog:D

so, let me blog about today, before all my thoughts disappear into the recycle bin in my head. lol.
today was the most exciting youth annniversay i have attended since p6. LOL.
considering that the past 2 years were all musicals. haha.
for a change, we went around palawan and tanjong beach, just like 'amazing race'
at first i didnt have a group. but i have to say, it was fun being in NARNIA, although most of my zone peeps are in ATLANTIS. hee.
plus, i got to know more people in the church :D
the games were fun.
played captain's ball with a tomato and cabbage; kissing, or rather, kissed a paper with ketchup sauce; played hockey using brooms; excersied our brains by using rafia string and a bottle to fill up a container; ....
haha. super fun!
and now, its the burnt + peeling season. just look at the equation..
sun+heat+wearing black shirt and shorts+cloudless day = pink+peeling
= :D (excluding the pain)
ps, my lips are burnt too ;D

haha. so only one more week till EOYs.
wont go online so often.
dont worry, i'll enjoy my offline times. studying :D

this week was ok.
practically, all the past year papers were thrown at us.
which was good practice for me.
some papers were quite challenging.
that means i have to really get all those facts into my head now.
AHH.

friday was ok. i felt weird not having choir...
had $4.50 macs meal. lol.
reminiscing about last year...

the rest of the week was ok. haha. normal? more stressed?
i dont know. haha

i'm feeling the sands and waves on the soles of my feet.
you know, that feeling you always have after a long day at the beach.
i mean literally, the feeling you feel on your feet....
today was great.

now the ranting. sort of.
manchester united lost liverpool 2-1.
thank God i was at BK enjoying my dinner with sk1.
well, listen up liverpool fans!
enjoy this moment while you can. you guys have to wait like 5 more years till you defeat us!
wahaha. lol.
i really dont know what happened on the pitch. haha.
anyway... you cant expect manutd to win every game can you?

just some thoughts over the week:
- friends or family? money or happiness?
- 11/9/08 marks the quietest chinese lesson without anyone sleeping.
- why do we always treat our friends better that our family? shouldnt it be the other way round?

one last thing.
FOR THE LAST TIME, STOP SENDING ME THOSE CHAIN MESSAGES. YOU KNOW THE POP-UP WILL NEVER COME AFTER SENDING THE MAIL TO 15 PEOPLE. HOW RELIABLE ARE THOSE MESSAGES ANYWAY?

the weekend which just pass was the best of my life!
recalling all those memories.
haha. i shall keep it confidential.
then only the 6 of us know. :D

update this weekend. or maybe next month.

bye, cya on facebook.

ps: wayne wong! go study la. then i can get free ticket to SH!!

2008-09-04T23:00:00.002+08:00

i realised i havent really been updating.
only posting some videos which i thought were interesting.

well, this week was holiday week for most of us.
and yet, i dont even feel relaxed.
i'm not complaining about the going back to school for CCA, in fact, i kinda enjoyed it.
its about the workload. i mean, we should have more time for self-revision.
moreover, its time for us to recharge and relax and prepare for the new term and for SA2.
sigh. i left my science and maths, both of which i found it difficult.
i feel like choinging through the night, finishing up my notes and stuffs.
getting ready for choir tmrw. hoping all goes well.
cant wait for dad to get back! :D

i havent done anything fun throughout this whole holiday.
unless you include the english outing which we went on monday.
i have so many things i want to do in the holiday.
haha. especially when wayne gets back in the 2 weeks.
i really want to go for the competition at bratislava at the end of the year.
why do we keep making her angry?

sometimes i feel like having a notebook and scribble all my thoughts down.
i think most thoughts there would be super random.
or some might be serious. hahah.

so man city has been bought over by a super rich oil company person right?
haha. money doesnt buy much.
so, will they be the next chelsea? haha. we'll just wait and see.
they're offering 145m for ronaldo? HAHA. what a joke.
he can go there. after the real madrid saga, i bet all his fans has left him.
so, is this football politics? like mind games and all? transfer and contracts? new managers and players?

i feel like blogging, there's nothing coming to mind now.
oh yes, there's this one thought lingering in my mind these days.
cherish every moment you have with everyone, it may be the last time when you can see them.
so, ya. i'm really cherishing each and everyone in my life, no matter how often i see you (:
so i'm trying to control myself when i get angry at someone or something which they have done.
who knows, i might regret blaring at them when that was the last chance i could see and talk to them.

marshmellows for breakfast is quite nice.
i'm finishing the book already. about 40+ pages.
its quite nice, and i'm expecting that the ending would be great.
marley and me is very nice! and touching .... haha. believe it or not, i was holding back my tears in the canteen while reading the ending of the story.
one child is also very touching. the ending was super touching and nice, kinda sweet.
i have 5 more books to read and i cant wait. haha
being a bookworm is nice.
but i dont think i can read on the bus. i might get giddy. but i havent tried it out yet.
i havent gone on any long us journey you see....

so, this post is kinda long. i think i can make it longer.

tomorrow shall be a long day.
choir, history ...
i hope things turn out well tmrw during choir.
...

haha. so i think this is the longest i can post.
i can squeese out anymore....
....
goodnight

2008-09-02T18:28:00.002+08:00

what makes us laugh?
why do we feel excited?
what makes us worry?
why do we have feelings?

haha. just some random thoughts.
today was ok laaa.
studied my geog. doing maths and lit tonight. hopefully i can finish them.
and yet again, why do we have homework when its holiday.
we're supposed to revise!
maybe its part of revision(?) haha. but thank God there isnt THAT much.

raining now.
i love the rain. haha and the strong winds
LOL.

so, Berbatov has finally signed.
at the last minute, just before the transfer window closes
http://www.manutd.com/default.sps?pagegid=%7BF9E570E6%2D407E%2D44BC%2D800F%2D4A3110258114%7D&redirectorid=news_story&newsid=6617336
and i had the shock of my life last night, man city bidding $30m for him.
he's not worth that much.
haha.
this is abit lagg-ish but chelsea drew!
wahahahaha. so fast lau-hong.
after trashing portsmouth 4-0, and winning wigan 1-0, they drew to tottenham 1-1.
haha.
manutd's next match playing with liverpool.
they SHOULD win. i hope so...

2008-09-01T20:51:00.002+08:00

all links updated:D

today was fun.
thank God for the great weather and everything else! :)
the excursion was fun. and i felt like a tourist, and was behaving like one too. taking photos eberywhere. haha
the 1hr plus nap on 159 was great. lol.
so the 3 of us were sleeping together. i didnt mind sleeping all the way to sengkang and take a bus back. haha.
well, havent done any revision today. will get some done tonight.
tomorrow is gone! ahh.
may post up the pics here. or on facebook. haha

2008-08-31T21:51:00.002+08:00

the lanterns by singapore river are beautiful.
even though they are some chinese characters. they look cute!
haha. dinner was great.
happy mooncake festival! i love snowskin mooncakes!! :D

this week=holiday week=very busy week.
well, at least i have something to look forward to this saturday and sunday :)
really really looking forward to those 2 days!! :D
(although those are the days which are 'back-to-school-for-exams feeling')
thursday is my only free day and i think it'll be eaten up by some tuition or piano lesson. arrgh.
HOLIDAYS!! i rather have normal school.
so, i have only completed my english and chinese worsheets.
:) at least i made an effort to complete the chinese.
i have geog(open ended), lit(portal), maths(portal), english(project), science(i left my file in school!! ) oh well.

happy teachers day! (tomorrow's the real day, by the way)
can someone clarify my doubt?
which is correct?
happy teacher's day or happy teachers' day?
so, all my teachers day cards are kinda messed up. with my aposthrophe all around. LOL.

suddenly everyone's a powerpuff fan.

2008-08-30T19:48:00.002+08:00

ok. i must admit, yesterday was kinda fun. and touching.
seeing friends whom i last saw was 2 years ago was exciting!
haha
so. irritated we were waiting to get back to rosyth.
went in to talk for 5 mins. :(
anyway, went to AMKhub for lunch.
talked.talked.talked.
the rest went to rebecca's hse but i had cell so i didnt go with them....
when is the next time i can get to see them again?

haha, i dont know wad else to blog.
lalala.

2008-08-28T20:51:00.002+08:00

so i was ~~rather~~ VERY moody this week.
well, adding up the monday incident and a certain someone and maybe some other events made me so stressed(?) up. and maybe frustrated.
so i shan't blog about this week, lest i start cursing and swearing. seriously.

ok today was exciting, funny and G-R-E-A-T. i would really say this is the best day of the week.
time literally flew during all lessons today, excluding science, as usual.
haha. so after we were chased out of school, we went on a shopping spree for our teachers' presents. ;D
lunched at festival market. KFC to be more exact.
so, 9 of us, went shopping.... at Fairprice Extra for the presents.
no, we arent getting bread, oil, sugar... to them due to inflation to help them save money.
we went shopping for ingredients for our top secret choc chip cookie.
aunty pang was really aunty. in a way good.
"its already 2.45! ", "will i have enough money to pay?"
zhan rong was ironical
"i am here to pay" guess what, he only had $5 in his wallet. -.-
haha. so we had a great time at bang's place.
sorry if we had messed up your place.
making cards, checking on the cookies, mixing the dough, playing with the butter was really exciting. haha. thank GOD the cookies tasted normal.
the process is better than the result. :D
one of the many things i've learnt: treasure the people around, cherish the moments you have with them.
i mean, will there be another chance we can get to do this again, especially when we arer spliting next year.
this is kinda inspired by janelle. :D
the second point is that everyone has a fun side in them, especially TXL. and audrey. haha.
i cant imagine how boring it would be if they wasnt there....

english holiday assignment is quite tough.
even though its ELC. hah

waiting for the cookies to bake....

2008-08-25T19:34:00.002+08:00

yes, i want to shout everything out here.
apparently i cant.
would anyone bother to care even if i did?
i'm just disappointed. angry and yet, sad.

2008-08-22T23:24:00.002+08:00

dont feel like blogging.
today was great. practice was fun. zone gathering was emotional.
yes. i'm very tired. and giddy, have to get used to the new specs.
:D

some random thoughts:
-i always get lost in sengkang.
-SA2 is starting soon. D:
-i'm tired.
-i'll update tomorrow, due to the high demand. :D

2008-08-16T23:35:00.002+08:00

let's talk about today, first.
slacked. and i felt guilty, for not doing any work.
i really cant think of what revision to do, my notes are done, excluding for those teachers have not taught, my maths examples are done....
so, i watched full house, use the computer and slept. the other half of the day was wasted at OCC.

its really the time for us to show our shirts, which i am so proud of
photos! people, tag them to me on facebook!! i'll post some up if i have the time, not now though.
haha. i think i dont like crowds...
i never liked places with so many people crammed in a small area.
bowling was a waste of time. arrgh. let's not talk about it la, it'll just make us angrier.
i have ALOT of things to say(not about bowling) but i'm still pondering if i should blog them down....

yesterday was fun(?)
lessons were draggy.
chinese marks were demoralising; english marks were enouraging
i couldnt absorb anything from science
only the revealing of magic tricks, which i thought had no link to the lesson.
maths. was ok la...
cafe cartel for lunch!
waited half an hour for the bread.
'students *sigh* '
we WERE(are) kiasu.
once the bread came out, the whole table of people came out to get the bread although there were only 4 baskets...
talked about school and stuffs la.
13 people! 8+5.
the photo was quite ironic.
1) there wasnt anything which showed cafe cartel, to proved that we went there for lunch
2) people were eating subway cookies and mcflurry. LOL.
SPK still had space in his stomach for 2 cookies. ahah.

one week without facebook and everyone is beating my high score
haha. especially janelle siew and lionel foo! LOL
its quite fun, not forgetting addictive.
but i can only use the computer on weekends....
its fun facebooking when half the class is using it and your cray cousins tag you spastic photos!
i mean, there's more bond. right?

yesterday was the day,
which i knew that the 29 footsteps fireworks were computerised
and the small girl wasnt really singing,
during the opening ceremony of the beijing olympics.
i'm quite slow huh.

oh yes, EPL started!
i cant watch manutd's opening match though.
11pm, sunday night. i'll just watch CNA in the morning to get the score.
haha.

watched part of 1/2's video
feel like creating a new one this year.
in memory of the school's worst class.
i hope we have a class chalet:D

and before i sign off,
HG1!! where are your photos?!
ok, i'm done.
goodnight;D

went to lunch at cafe cartel.
new record, 13 people!!
cell was at gabriel ng's house.

yup, i'll post more details tmrw.
my facebook needs my attention:D

2008-08-11T19:40:00.002+08:00

so, today was super slack.
well, it should be; being the last day of relax-ness before i begin my revision

had ah-mei for breakfast.
waited 20 mins. business was good lah.
went grocery shopping with family.
LOL. dad and i spent like 20 mins looking for jon and jeri whom both had been hogging the trolley.
so, there we were, and me looking like a complete idiot carrying a bottle of light sauce, two bottles of tomato sauce and a bottle of chilli sauce on both hands.
haha.

managed to catch some olympics games.
weight lifting, archery, synchronised diving, fencing and swimming
jon enjoys looking at the weight lifters struggling to lift the weights
archery is fun to watch! go KOREA!
synchronised diving is cool la. but i only watched the guys one.
there's still a big question mark when i watch fencing.
someone please explain the game to me
swimming is ok laaa.

tao li was in the 5th position.
means she's the 5th best swimmer in the whole world:D
well, she did her best. and i think we shouldnt really blame her for not getting any medals.
compare her to the other swimmers, i think she deserves some encouragement

cousin tee
http://pauzi.blogspot.com
oh well, it was ok.
did i blog about this already??
oh man...

community sheild
so boring that i slept through the whole 2nd half
'makeshift manchester united dissapoints' -the straits time
no comments.

2008-08-09T12:03:00.002+08:00

HAPPY NATIONAL DAY!
i'm gonna catch this year's NDP on HD5, hopefully.

i watched the repeat of the opening ceremony of the olymipcs this morning.
Beijing really set the standard.
so much fireworks! the performers are so synchronised.
and i saw how they light up the flame. it's super cool! with that guy lifted up.

i just finished my geog assignment! ;D
now comes the tough part, LITERATURE.
arrgh. we have the cheem-est topic, irony.
and so many types of it.
(...)
jaiyou! after this i can get back to facebook and be the biggest brainer.

oh yes, i cant wait to buy the shirts later!!
its so very exteremly exciting!
who was the genuis who came up with this idea?
C-O-U-S-I-N-S (!!!)
you are loved.
i realised we dont have like a cousin photo.

counting down to mooncake festival(mid-autum festival) to show off our tees to the adults.
:D

2008-08-08T23:29:00.002+08:00

i have to say something...
i'll really miss 2/2!
even though we're the worst class, in both academics and attitude, i think we're quite united!
its fun celebrating NDP with you guys this year!!
AHHH!
watching the 1/2 video made me laugh

:) thanks for all the fun memories
