tadum tadum...my com is lagging dreadfully...think it's hinting to me to go n sleep, coz currently, e whole house is asleep except me...whoooo...
havent blog for a long time coz : 1) no mood to blog/no time/nothing to blog abt 2) lazy to on the com...
frankly studying for 'a's is giving me lots of insights into life...like i'll be reading something n suddenly, voom, in comes a brilliant wise thought knocking on the door... haha, my brain juice has nothing to spend itself on...
i was thinking the other day that i'll make a good gossip columnist...why? bcoz i'm good at descriptions...not the usual kind, but the exaggerated, tongue in cheek kind of comments and feedbacks...sadly, will have no future in the sunny island of Singapore...
anyway, i'll resume blogging after my 'A's ends, which is on the 3rd of Dec...horrible timetable, with everything squished up in the first week (the first paper is next tues in fact) and 10 days of utter boredom between the second-last n last paper...gross right? totally... anyway, thinking of starting a new blog, coz i getting older n bitchier n need to hide myself away...with age comes clarity of vision...haha...so i guess this blog wont have that long a time left...e new blog will probably not link to anyone's, not told to anyone, unless u're still reading this blog and completely deeper...haha, unless u discover it by chance...though how's that possible i dont know...got me a revelation the other day...on how exposed i'm on this blog, though it's semi-dead...
this totally unknown girl, a friend of a friend apparently, knows my name n thus have read this blog b4...n when she told me that, i was like: WHOA! i dont even know u! (thinking it of coz, i'm nice) n so i said, u know my name meh? she was like yeah, n gave this secret smile...so i said, but this blog totally has no names, not even my own full name so how do u know it's mine... n she said, i know...creepy sometimes... but nvm, not like i used this blog for confession... i have a diary for that! *sniggers*
so yup, going to move soon, dont miss me, though if u do, u can always call me...haha! lame, bye!
n night, n wish me lots of luck for 'A's! :)

The saying: U get what u see...Well, it's not true most of the time...
today, 1st of Sept 2009...my family celebrated my 18th birthday for me, on day early. Why? Because, joy to the world, i have econs tuition tmr, on my 18th bday...i guess the significance of an 18th bday doesnt hold true when one is in danger of not getting good grades for A level econs...Sigh... Well the celebration today was minimal...the cake was gorgeous, an ice cream cake, cookies n cream, from swensen's...besides that...the rest went downhill from there...
1) my dearest daddy, with his extremely poor memory for dates, totally forgot it was my bday tmr...as usual...so no surprises there...
2) we ate the cake with my extremely poor feeling bro, who somehow managed to get the symptoms of sorethroat...
3) we ate the cake while my dad n mum, as usual started quarelling over the smallest thing: the tuperware to store the uneaten cake in... i mean seriously! they were arguing abt the shape for christ sake! for once, cant they enjoy something in peace, without my dad making a snark comment n my poor mum rising to the bait...sigh...why cant my parents be the lovey dovey kind, so that i can grow up believing in the sanctity of everlasting love...

but truth to be told, my parents aint that bad...for one, they really believe in the sanctity of marriage vows...so thx to that, my bro n i can grow up in a complete family...but i believe that my parents do have love to some extent, though both of them r really bad at showing it...

so let me recaptulate: things r not what they seem

2009-05-28T08:41:00.001-07:00

i miss a life of freedom, freedom to daydream...

2009-05-28T08:10:00.000-07:00

MIA for so long...well, here i'm! it's just that this year, i didn't have much motivation to blog, partly due to the lack of going-ons in my life... J2 life is damn boring, it's kinda like CCA n studies and nothing else. Anyway, i took on an extra H3 molecular bio subject this year (with NTU) and so my life is now almost completely filled with studies and nothing else...

anyway, just a quick update since like Jan...i really miss my friend Zona, for reasons i can't say here... i miss having heart to heart sessions w her...the guys in my class remain as gay as ever, retaining the seemingly unless need to be in contact with each other...my poor eyes... and the girls in the soccer team has undergone an evolution in the relationships, with the entrance of the J1s...

i missed lots of soccer prac, esp during the March hols, due to H3, which kinda stole my entire March hols from me...expectedly, i did not start studying sufficiently early enough for my Block Test 1, which was after the March hols and did even worse than my promos...very very disappointed with myself. celebrated the end of BT1 with my virgin attempt at guitar hero at sheila's house...n it's kinda fun coz noone in her house cares how loud we screamed n laughed... missed soccer JTS n my class JTS due to...what else...having to study for H3... seriously, H3 murdered more of my social life than expected... n advice to anyone who's thinking of taking NTU molecular bio...DON'T! u'll have time enough to be killed when u r in uni... enjoy life while u can...

as for soccer tournament, despite high hopes, our team didnt make it into semis...all i can say is that, it was a result of a disappointing match...the loss was partly ours, for not keeping vigilant long enough n not greedy for the ball, n partly due to poor luck that we met with such a bias referee n an unethical team... sports, the beauty n the ugly of it... but i thoroughly enjoyed my one over year in soccer, because the sport is fantastically fun n the people, the best...every team has its ups n downs, so has ours, but importantly, we emerged as A TEAM...

just this month, i went under an MP (member of parliament) attachment program, n was brought under the wing of Mr Michael Palmer, MP for Punggol east, part of the Pasir Ris Punggol GRC, which i belonged to...i really have lots of fun doing this program as my MP is friendly and approachable, unlike some of my friends', who appear to be busy majority of the time, which is kinda sad...i have learnt lots, my last session is this sat, from attending MPS (meet the people session), an RC meeting, a CCC meeting, a Mothers' Day celebration, n by this Sat, a block visit. What i can say is that, the 2 MPS that i have attended impacted me a lot, n i will consider being a volunteer after my 'A's at the session...either in my own area, or i'll go back to the punggol east one, coz the people there are super nice n friendly :)

my life now, i stuck on studying for the H3 end of year, which will be on 3rd June...sadly, i feel that i will not be able to attain exemplary results (that is, a Distinction grade), due to my inability to understand most of the syllabus. sigh...it's very regretful...

but life's goes on, n i think that i should focus more on my H2 subjects coz they will form the core of my 'A's... hopefully, i can do well enough to get into medicine or maybe law...if not, at least psychology...been considering politcal science of late too...

ok shall end here...maybe i'll have the motivation to blog again soon :) for now, NIGHT!

2009-01-28T02:02:00.000-08:00

yo ppl...today's the third day of Chinese New Year and the sch has kindly decided to give us the day off... (something about the principal wanting us to do more charity...*shrugs* i have no idea where's the link too...) had a break from sat all the way till today, which is wed...
last fri, we had cny celebration till 11am n then we could go off...but a nice kind uni just had to start their h3 on that day, making me loiter around taka before h3 at rj at 4...n the prof came late so we started late n ended late...when i got home, i was sooo tired that i could barely smile at the thought of break the next few days... luckily, we had class lunch that day at Pepper Lunch, so i didnt had to loiter aimlessly for too long... (n Pepper Lunch's kinda overhyped...it's too ex for rice n meat that u have to cook yourself...just my thoughts...) anyway, my h3 prof is a Caucasian, n he sounded like Kermit the Frog, probably coz he had flu or something...which was kinda cute...but his pace was sort of a killer. it was so fast that i barely had time to copy any notes down...but guess i have to get used to this uni style of lecturing...
spent sat morning in sch for soccer training... felt super guilty again when coach brought up sylvia's injury coz it was partly my fault she fell n got a sprained ankle...n just b4 CNY too...sigh...
sat night, had reunion dinner at some restaurant at tiong bahru which was kinda so-so...but i loved the tofu :D i kinda love all kinds of tofu stir-fry in gravy w mushrooms, so yeah :P the pai kuat wong ( pork rib cutlet in sweet sauce) was delicious too, but there was only enough for one per person...so sad...the fish wasnt very nice, the chicken slightly weird with the sweet chili sauce...oh n the service was quite slow...luckily my aunt ordered in advance, coz the place was packed to the brim...the cereal prawn was quite ok, but nothing to go wow over...the veg, normal...there wasnt any soup or dessert, so i cant comment on that...oh but the sang min (fried noodle in gravy) was simply delicious! the noodle is thinner than those u usually find outside and crispy covered with the delicious sauce :D Mmmm! the rest of the dishes i cant really remember, coz they are kinda forgettable... but the loh hey (a traditional dish made of mixed raw vegetable strips, crispy bits and slices of raw fish, covered with some raw ginger and sweet sauce eaten during Chinese New Year) was quite horrible coz the waitress didnt say all the things that you were suppose to say when you prep the loh hey...its kinda like missing out the important bits of this tradition... :(
sun was spent slacking at home and dinner was steamboat among my own family...
mon was visiting day...went to my grandparents' house in clementi first where we had lunch...the peng cai that we got from crystal jade was abominable!!! they used cheap ingredients like fishballs instead of fish maw and stuff...n the scallops were tiny things that only a few of us managed to have...as usual, the nicest part of the lunch was my grandmother's lotus stem, pork, and abalone soup :D damn delicious!
after lunch, we went to my aunt's house and saw the new baby that my uncle had :D (my aunt is my dad's sis, the uncle is not my aunt's husband but is both their bro...he n his wife stays in my aunt's house) the baby boy was just borned on 23th jan, so he was just 4 days old on mon :D he's so tiny n cant really open his eyes yet...n i got to carry him for his post feeding nap :D they haven't registered his name yet, but are thinking of calling him Breydan (or Braydan) Tung Bao An...haha, the chi name's kinda weird...
tues was spent slacking, n so was today :D
ok signing off for more slacking...

2009-01-08T06:39:00.000-08:00

yopz! it's been 2009 for 8 days! n sch gonna start in 5 days, on the 12th of Jan...yep, this yr, the JCs are starting later and ending later...so 'A's gonna be later too...duno whether to be sad or happy bout that...anyway, i m gonna be a J2 in officially 5 days, n i don't like it...AT ALL...coz it means 'A's are coming, and that lots of mugging are in store for me...boohoo...yucks... for this new sch yr, i'm getting only one new teacher, who is my GP teacher and form teacher too...that's coz my previous GP teacher is only teaching J1 GP and thus she can't be the form for a J2 class... i getting keep all the rest of my teachers, a fact that make me half happy n half sad...coz half of them r good, the other half not so...
so since the last time i posted, i have been thru soccer camp, from the 11th to the 13th of Dec, several soccer trainings, Christmas and some family outings and dinner...plus lots of slacking time and escaping from all the homework...Soccer camp was seriously fun, but super draining, coz being in the Exco means i have to be in charge of at least 2 activities...which had killer logistics...haha, i had to buy lots of the stuff that we were using, so i had to lugged bags of grocceries like some bag lady to school by public transport over the span of 2 days, for the 2 different activities that i organised (Station Games and Telematch) w one other person each... We also had stayover at Shao's house which was humongous on the second night and third day's activities were conducted all over Singapore (Amazing Race)...her family members were nice, we had a nice relaxing time, but not so nice rest, consisting of only a few hours of sleep on the sofa...but i shouldn't complain coz some ppl only got the cold floor and lesser hours of sleep...but i seriously can't function well w less than 5 hours of sleep in one go...
the soccer camp revealed lots of stuff about the members of the team, some good stuff and some not so bad...To prevent sullying the reputations of some, i would not mentioned names... but i deeply regret doing stupid, idiotic stuff on the third night during the bbq, to my friend, and causing her hurt and grief...
I'm so sorry, ****!
anyway, after the camp, we had this match w VJC and it was terrifying, though, i guessed we didnt come off as badly as we thought we will...so good for us, and MORE HARD WORK for tournament next year...
christmas was boring this year...no family dinner and no PRESENTS :( however, in the day my family and I did go to the house of my father's friend, who opens his house up for celebrations every year for friends from their air force days...every year, we go, and every year we see how the people all change...it's seriously cool to have friends like that...
my male cousin, who is one year older than me, has finished his 'A's and entered NS on 12th Dec...he shved his head and looks kinda funny, coz his quite tall and muscular but his shaved head looks super small :D
my maternal uncle and his family has just shifted into their new humongous house that they had built and renovated for a few years...it's a semi-D, with 2 full storeys and a partial third storey that called an attic but is definitely much bigger than one... it has a lawn, a pond with a fountain w fish, a huge plasma TV, aircons everywhere, 6 bathrooms, a studyroom cum library attached to the master bedroom, a walk-in wadrobe each in the bedrooms on the second floor (which has two bedrooms, a den and a big open room which they havent found a use for) and separate long baths and showers in the sttached bathrooms of these 2 bedrooms. On the third floor, the rooms haven't been allocated uses yet, but one of them is going to be a audio cum karaoke room...plus there is a huge rooftop balcony on the third floor... gosh right?! and all for 3 people...living in the lap of luxury...oh, n did i mention my uncle has 3 cars?!?! when only 2 in the family is able to drive...blah...
ok, i m suppose to be finishing my HW now...coz,yes, sch's gonna start...have training tmr, bright and early, so shall go catch some shut-eye...oh, did i mention my first major exam for J2 is in March, with my tournament... !!! right? n my H3 exam is in June... lucky old me...this cow year is gonna by full of slogging and more slogging...how appropriate... :(

2008-12-04T06:06:00.000-08:00

whee...back from a super duper long blogging hiatus...
firstly, PW is over!!! ;D so yippee...
but lots of yucky hols HW to start and finish!!! so boo...
so quick update on my life:
1) went for Apollo fac event Reverse
2) went for 79 class bbq
3) had lots of soccer prac during the hols
4) and the main highlight of the blogpost today is... my OCIP trip to NANJING, FUJIAN!!!

anyway the trip was from 14 to 24 Nov... and the main aim was to assist in some construction in a pri sch in nanjing, fujian (NOT the rape of nanjing-nanjing...) plus teaching of simple english and selected sports basics to the kids in the school... so since i cant go into the full details in this post (details of the full 11 days would take a few hours to type? ;D), i will just mention some highlights and some of my thoughts...

1) the kids in the school, Chang Jiao Primary School, were super enthusiastic and welcoming, both in mixing with a whole group of strangers who descended en masse on their school and into their lives, as well as learning new stuff...
2) their stamina and energy were boundless and are far more than ours...seriously, just seeing them running and jumping and just plain moving is tiring enough...the amount of food they eat though is not enough to fuel that energy...
3) the construction work was not as tough as i expected...it was quite an experience, in that, i found out that, if you work with a group of good friends, chatting, gossiping and singing (yes, singing...) while you work, it'll make the work seem more fun ;D so yep, i kinda enjoyed the construction...
4) the food there is quite ok, life-substaining :p i didnt mind the veggies coz there were fresh and nicely cooked...oh i love the fried fish we had for two of all the meals we had in the school! ;D and the dou jiang in the morning for breakfast
5) the toilet there required getting used to...the saying ignorance is bliss really applies there, coz it's better not to know what's there... :P
6) bathing at night is freezing so you had to bathe super quick...better to bathe in the noon if possible...
7) we slept on wooden bunks, but thought they were hard, being physically tired helps you go to sleep quickly ;D
8) i love the chatting and snacking and playing of cards at night with my roomies and neighbours...seriously, one of the special moments there ;)
9) i really really really love the kids there
10) i love the experience at the hot springs in xiamen ;) there was a curry pool, a coffee one, pineapple, ginger tea, milk, lemon and wine...sadly didnt managed to try the wine one, but the curry one was an experience coz it wasnt really the type of curry we ate but curry leaves soaked in the pool ;) i personally loved the lemon, milk and pineapple one...really felt like a queen soaking in all those pools ;)
11) shopping in xiamen is considerably cheap, though it's a prosperous town...
12) food in nanjing is super duper cheap...love all the goodies i had there ;) especially the jelly or guo dong ;)
13) the tuluos ( it's a special architechtural structure, which is unique to the houses in that part of china and it's a UN acknowledged heritage site) were special coz they are totally...special...you cant get to see round houses anywhere else... plus the people who loved there are super proud of their homes despite the somewhat squalid conditions in the tuluos... or interesting fact: people who lived in the same tuluos, who may not be related to each other, all have the same surnames...cool right ;)

14) this is special coz i TOTALLY LOVED THE SHOOTING STAR AND FIREWORKS THAT I SAW THERE...THEY WERE BEAUTIFUL! the shooting star was seen on the day the school had a blackout and the whole group of us went stargazing...the fireworks were bought and set off by us and more were set off by the villagers to celebrate some temple event, all on the night before our departure from the school...beautiful... ;)

ok, so that's kinda all...i had this aching feeling for a few days after i got back here, coz i really missed the kind of life i had there with the kids and the people in OCIP Nanjing...sigh...but i'm really really REALLY glad i went for this trip ;)

2008-10-15T07:28:00.000-07:00

yo...haven't blogged in a long time...my promos are over, n now, it's time for results, which so far, sucked...suck super badly... after promos, there was a rush of events that just swept me off my feet. on the last day of promos, that is, the bio paper, i went out w my friends to catch the movie Painted Skin, which is nice. The plot was cliche, but they adapted it in such a way to make it fresh...plus it was engaging, so thumbs up! last mon, we had Festival of Sports, in which i was suppose to represent my class in street soccer, girls...n guess what, we got 3rd! woohoo, super proud of my team because none of them have played street soccer before. ;D tues n wed were sabbaticals days, n i was in WAKEBOARDING! whee ;D brilliant isnt it? i was a loser on the first day coz i was the only one who couldnt stand up on my board, but got the hang of it on the second day, which was when the real fun began... although my wakeboarding skills are not comparable to many others in the group, i learnt an exclusive skill, driving the boat! haha ;D now, all i need is to earn enough money to actually rent one so i can go for my licence...lol, just kidding, it actually takes more practice than 2 days... but its seriously quite easy to learn coz there are just 2 things to watch out for, the gear shift, for speed, and the steering wheel, for direction, much easier than driving a car... n coming from a vehicle noob(worst driver in history in 3D rally, ie a handphone game), it gotta hold for something...
so came back with a whole body of aches and the worst sunburn of my life so far, and went to school on thurs, and attended soccer practice...i am seriously strong ;D
fri was open house, where i manned the soccer booth in the morning and tour guide with jiaying and yufei in the noon...
this whole week was mainly results, yuck, n PW, super duper YUCK!
ok i m going off, to get some sleep, night!

2008-09-18T07:50:00.000-07:00

goodbye to the world...this girl is going into seclusion...
nope, not monkhood...nah, not a nunnery...but rather... MUGGER-HOOD!
it's too late, baby there's no turning around...
sigh, i'm gona flung promos (out into the deep blue sea of despair)...but u noe what's worse? i m not panicking...
WHY?!?!
i should be banging my head against the wall now?
or flushing myself down the toilet bowl...
but no...just a calm serenity...

how many ways can u spell "dead"...

Q-Y

2008-09-12T07:31:00.000-07:00

during GP lessons on tues, one of the essay qns that we were discussing was the topic on "Singaporeans have no time to be gracious"... to think of it, it's quite true...it's rare to see on the streets of Singapore, people who smile at strangers, just to brighten the day of others... in some country, it is the norm...or more precisely, it is inbred/inborn in them to be nice to others...
i'm not going to talk about strangers, just let me use some examples that i have seen for myself:
1) when you press the "open" lift button for others to exit, how many actually bothered to say "thank you"? maybe out of 30, about 1 or 2? maybe not even there... i'm not boasting or trying to make myself appear gracious, but from a young age, i was taught by my father to be polite to others as well as to thank ppl who bother to go out of their way to do something for you. Although i feel that my dad is very overbearing, he is the best example, for me, of someone who shows his happy face to others, no matter whether he is really feeling happy or not...n he's always the one pressing the "open" button or holding the door open...so from young, i thought it was the norm..but as i went out into the world, i realised to the contrary...
2) today, my classmates conducted a little "test"... they were one of the first few out of the lecture theatre, n thus stood at the corner, holding the door open for everyone... they stood there, wondering how many ppl would actually notice and thank them...to their surprise and my horror, they had a long while to wait...one whole mass of students left by that door, but only 1, only 1, bothered to thank them...i feel quite disappointed that it's in Singaporeans to assume that the doors are "naturally" open, and that they are not obliged to wonder why...it's this sort of unthoughtlessness and unawareness of the surroundings that make me worry about the graciousness of this country... intelligent, we can be...sophisticated? never...

perhaps u may feel that i m thinking too much...but if u care for Singapore, can u not help worrying?

2008-09-05T07:52:00.000-07:00

yoyo...here to talk abt my sense of procrastination again...i know i know...i m a big fat idiot who havent learnt from her mistakes... just like before block test 1... same thing...i m such a fool...i keep telling myself to start mugging, cos promos gonna decide half of ur life, but no...still not starting... i guess i will fall under the sword of procrastination, or the lack of self-discipline... i keep watching dramas on the web, one after the other...my friends all have enough discipline to start watching after promos...but not me...

I SUCK!

2008-09-04T07:52:00.000-07:00

yoz ;D was surfing the web just now when my past deeds came back to "haunt" me... (haha, actually not really haunt, coz i still think it's quite funny...

did u hear abt the 4 million smiles project last yr? well, did u also know of the 4 million frowns campaign...it was started by the nanyang academy of fine arts student, matthew teo, last yr to "counter" the 4 million smile project...its not very big scale, but it got reported in the news, so i came to know about it...n guess what, if u visit matthew's blog, u get to see my frowning pic on one of the letters that make up the word "frown"...haha ;D u guys should go check it out:

http://4millionfrowns.livejournal.com/

haha, i still think it's damn funny, whenever i see it, i will feel like laughing... oh newsflash, my uncle is also one of the participant ;D u can try finding me ;D

2008-09-04T03:42:00.000-07:00

GREAT NEWS!!! I GOT INTO OCIP NANJING!!!!!! WOOHOO! ;D

haha, apparently a quarter of the ppl in the group r made up of my classmates...

n here's a new resolution: SAVE MONEY!

reasons:
1) the trip will cost $830! which is a considerable fortune... n i will have to scrimp n save to help my parents...
2) my parents want to retire soon, so i shall have to do my part to start saving for rainy days...
3) I WANT TO GO TO UNIVERSITY!!! n as all of us know, it will cost a bomb! so, start saving now...

so dont tempt me to buy unneccessary stuff! cos i will be the scrimp n save goddess from now on! to a richer tmr!!! (haha, i sound like some money-minded fanatic...wait, maybe i m;D haha)

2008-09-03T05:27:00.000-07:00

hello ;D here to blog about yesterday, aka, the day of my 17th birthday ;D
went to sch for MAF dry run (actual thing is on Sept 6th) at abt 2...the entire ended at 9...
i think the councillors yesterday, had their fair share of bad luck...what with the rain starting at around 6 when the programme was due to start, n one of the ropes holding up the centrepiece giving way... the rain caused the programme to be shifted to the hall, n this caused one of the performances to be cancelled due to insufficient technical support in the hall...then bcos the performancers had to wait in the classrooms, which were quite a way off (in addition to the big bulky props n instruments needed), the performancers were all late in getting up the stage...which made it a big headache for us emcees who had to drag on our commentary as long as we could till the performancers were READY... sigh, altogether, the dry run wasnt a success at all...
though, i m not apporting the blame to anyone, just think that the Student Council was really unlucky last night...or to use a chi phrase 他们倒霉透了。。。it was one disaster after another, adding up to a catalysmatic mother of all disasters... hopefully, n i pray with all my heart, nothing (n i mean NOTHING) like this will happen on Sept 6th...or else all our efforts will just go down the proverbial drain...
but besides spewing abt the bad dry run yesterday, i would really like to thank EVERYONE who rmbered my birthday ;D thx ppl, i m super duper touched ;D n for those who even prepared a little something for me, i would positively like to give u one humongous big hug! haha ;D although the dry run left something to be desired, the birthday part was seriously ok ;D thx ppl! haha...
oh, i m damn happy i got to sing on the mike yesterday...haha, i know i sound kinda crazy when i say this, but its true...coz it's one of my childhood dreams to do so...haha like u know how some ppl wanna be a rockstar, well, i wanted to be a terrific singer who wowed everyone everytime i sang...though most of that didnt came thru, at least i got to sing on the mike n i'm proud to say, no one fainted away in horror or covered their ears n moaned...so, i should be quite ok...not brilliant, but acceptable ;D
oh, if u were wondering, i sang the first 2 verses of alicia keys's " If I Ain't Got You"...which i think is a totally smashing song for females to sing ;D coz it sounds super sexy if we girls sing it well ;D haha
ok, so ppl, lets cross our fingers for sept 6...rain all u want from now till sept 5th, but just not on sept 6th ;D please...with a cherry on top...

Signing off,
the curtain-puller ;D (haha, private joke to hamster n her yi ge ren)

my first blog post of my 17th year ;D

"Invisible" by Taylor Swift

She can’t see the way your eyes light up when you smile
She’ll never notice how you stop and stare whenever she walks by
And you can’t see me wantin you the way you want her
But you are everything to me

[Chorus:]
And I just wanna show you
She don’t even know you
She's never gonna love you like I want to
You just see right through me but if you only knew me
We could be a beautiful miracle unbelievable instead of just invisible

There’s a fire inside of you that can’t help but shine through
She’s never gonna see the lightNo matter what you do
And all I think about is how to make you think of me
And everything that we could be

[Chorus]
Like shadows in a faded light
Oh we’re Invisible
I just wanna look in your eyes and make you realize
I just wanna show you she don’t even know you
Baby let me love you let me want you
You just see right through me
But if you only knew me
We could be a beautiful miracle unbelievable instead of just invisible

She can’t see the way your eyes light up when you smile

30 mins n counting...
counting down to...
30 mins to...
to the day...
17 years ago...
when a botak, wailing girl was borned...
while her mama screams in pain...
while her daddy looks on in ... a mixture of emotions...

here's the "Optimist Creed" which my form tcher mentioned about today when she was giving one of her heart-to-heart talks... think it's really wise...the talk was on how EQ makes the world go round, and thus, i feel that i should self-reflect and improve my intrapersonal skills...
i know that i m often mean and sarcastic and thus can be quite hurtful...i'm sorry... i will try hard to be nicer.
i also know that i have a bad temper, so i'm working on reining it in... just sometimes though, when i feel that people are being internationally hurtful or extremely and unjustly mean, i will still get pissed off... i'm sorry for losing my temper...
though i confess that i'm still working hard to obtain those standards set in the optimist creed...like today, i felt quite sad that my sec 4 class forgot my bday yet rmbered another girl's bday which is on the same day as mine...though, after thinking abt it, i feel that it doesnt really matter if someone who is not close to u doesnt rmb...as long as those ppl who really matter show their care and concern in small actions everyday, i should be thankful and appreciate that i have ppl around me who care for me... oh dont get me wrong, i'm not sad cos i wont get presents, but i truely believe in "it's the thoughts that count", so even if u dont get me a present, just give me a hug will do ;D
so yep, i should not be sad...
besides, one minute of unhappiness or anger will deprive u of 60 seconds of happiness...it's not worth it!
ok ppl...that's the end to today's QY's reflective moment ;D LIVE EACH DAY TO THE HAPPIEST! ;D
i'll leave u with one last phrase from a drama which, however, is extremely meangingful:
笑一笑，没什么事情过不了！;D
cheers!

oh mine ;D super happy now coz i got into my first choice course for post-promos sabbats! woohoo ;D n in case u r wondering, it's wakeboarding...cool or what ;D haha, coz i was unlucky the first time round n didnt get any of my 3 choices, plus i was a good girl n did the post sabbats survey, so yep, got my first choice...though some lucky ppl got their first choices both times round...but hey, i'm not complaining now...unless (TOUCHWOOD!) they cancel the wakeboarding course...then i'll just cry...haha, coz the available sabbats left r like...blah...
cant seem to get myself to start mugging for promos, which is a SUPER bad thing cos my sept hols r gonna be filled up by lots of events, mainly prep for MAF (Mid-autumn Festival), coz i'm the eng emcee ;D (haha, i can just hear the gasps of surprise)...MAF is on sept 6, end of hols, so prep is going to be thruout the hols...so QY, START MUGGING NOW!
though there r some reasons y i havent already started mugging:
1) so many tests n quizzes n mock SPAs n SPAs in these few weeks that i got tired of studying aft studying for all those above, so havent started studying for promos
2) plain laziness
3) no sense of urgency (usually get this around one week before the first paper, by then, too late, gone case already...)
4) peer pressure, coz i dont see my frens mugging, so i have no competition to drive me on
5) other stuff going on like soccer stuff to prep as well as MAF script
6) busy trying to do tuts on time (n failing...)
7) having too much fun having fun (get me?)

Solutions:
1) i should aim to win the top scorers in my class for each subject so that i will have motivation to study.
2) convince myself that others r secretly mugging n i'm the only one who havent started yet
3) finish tuts, n miscellaneous stuff asap as they r not the main parts of JC life
4) priortise n do out a timetable
5) mug on weekends
6) tell myself 先苦后甜。。。
7) slap myself n deprive myself of fav stuff if i dont start
8) reward myself if i mug (that's y i always put on lots of weight during exam period as my rewards usually come in the form of food)
9) manage time better n STOP WASTING IT
10) sleep earlier n drink lots of water to remain healthy n energetic

ok QY, go sleep now!

yoyo! was National Day yesterday n my bro's bday too... so relatives on my mummy's side came over for dinner and to celebrate my bro's bday + National Day at the same time... so after the parade, most of us went to TM's GV to watch Jack Neo's newest film "Money No Enough 2"...
According to the newspapers, its like a 2 hour advertisement for lots of stuff...but for me, it was a touching and entertaining show... the first part was entertaining, with the ERP thingie... the mid n last parts were super touching...seriously, the actress who acted as the mother of the 3 brothers in the movie should get an Oscar...According to Google, she's 81-year-old Lai Meng from Malaysia...when i watched her face, i feel like crying coz her emotions are just so raw and painful...
there's was this one scene that specially touched me and inspired me...
“妈妈最穷的时候，不是在她从饼干盒里拿出所有的钱给我们。。。而是当所有的儿子都不要她的时候，她才是最穷的。。。”(Mother wasnt the poorest when she took out all her life savings from her cream crackers can to give us all...She was the poorest when all her sons didnt want her anymore) this line (ok it wasnt totally the exact line said during the movie, but this is the gist of it) made me cry even harder during the movie... until know, i still feel my eyes geting wet when i typed this 2 lines out, n when i think of the scene with her dying face...(she killed herself by pulling out the life support to save her granddaughter who didnt give a hoot about her before) super sad...
so i think everyone should go watch this movie, because it teaches u values...n that money is nothing without your loved ones...5 stars!

2008-08-06T06:33:00.000-07:00

tired...
tired of school...
tired of tests...

tired of rushing tutorials everyday...
tired of forcing myself to start promotional exams preparation...
tired of everything...

but then, i won't be living...will i?

2008-07-21T07:21:00.000-07:00

yozzie...my 5 cent sized bruise on Sat has transformed into a bruise that spreads across my right knee...n it has evolved into the shape of Australia...haha ;D

sigh, i should learn how to keep my templ...comeon girl, u can do it...hold that beast in check n dont let it get the better of you!

today had heavy rains, so sadly, no soccer training on field ;( had gym training instead...

n i seriously think mean ppl should be prosecuted! they r scary and...mean...like super so...they talk abt u "behind ur back" in front of u...real secretive huh...this shows how much they give a damn abt ur feelings...(whew, letting out all the bottled feelings really help, but since i will not stoop to their level, i will not say the names of those i m referring to to anyone...)

okok...time to get some precious shut-eye...tmr is a mutation test which we had to prep our own notes for...scary right...notes wrong, test wrong...

so bye!

2008-07-19T07:01:00.000-07:00

whee...went ice-skating today for my class GEMS! haha...for non-HCI students, GEMS means General Enrichment Module...(no idea what the S stands for, perhaps its a small 's' instead ;D )

it would have been damn fun to watch this noob here trying hard to ice skate...seriously, i m the ultimate noob, as i have nv tried ANY form of skating before, rollerblading n iceskating included... 79 went to ichiban at IMM for lunch first where i ordered some mackeral thingie with a rice set (haha, pardon me, for japs n jap lovers, mean no disrespect to ur culture)...had a grand time eating...only hick-up was the exchange of food b/w yufei n jianfei...haha...

then we went over to jurong entertainment centre n up to fuji ice palace for the skating...met 77 there n two guys frm 75 n 78 who were supposed to be our instructors...anyway, they ended up not teaching much (one was sick n the other was enjoying doing stunts too much)... n the poor noobs all went in a row, clinging on to the sides n trying desperately not to fall... when i first stepped in, my brain was screaming" TURN BACK! TURN BACK! WHAT THE HELL R U DOING OUT ON THE SLIPPERY ICE BALANCING ON TWO THIN BLADES?!" haha...but i didnt coz ppl were coming in frm the entrance, so no choice but forward...

so on i went with the other noobies in front n behind me... clinging on for dear life n trying to figure out the trick to skating w/o holding on to something...the better ones took pity on us n one by one, we let go of the sides onto the dangerous world of ice... haha, i had lots of shifu, some were 79 peeps some were 77... changed tchers so that they could get to enjoy themselves w/o burdens... haha, took some spills, 9 in total...brilliant wasnt i? ;D

haha, 5 falls in the first half, all on my tush...went off the ice for the cleaning at abt 4.10pm...then back on...2nd half, i gained much courage to venture out on my own...was sliding on my own when this guy ("Mr Platonic Friend" to my friends) leaning on the sides told me to look ahead instead of always at my feet...haha, i must have looked super pathetic bcoz he decided to take me on as a tutee... but each time he asked me to "follow him", i fell, at his feet...altogether, making up 3 out of the 4 times during the 2nd half... must have looked super glam...haha...found out he had been skating for 4 years...

have a blister on the back of my right foot from ice-skating n a bruise the size of a 5 cent coin on my right knee from my 7th fall...though i was lucky not to have fallen on my tailbone which would have been painful...

we left at 5 n some of the girls went to take neoprints...then around 6 plus, we left...

conclusion: i would LOVE to do it again! haha ;D seriously... for those who havent tried, do go n try ;D

2008-07-01T08:12:00.001-07:00

yo...damn was one sad day full of coincedences...actually its a sad day cos of the coincedences...coz the rest of the day was fine...
saw him thousands of times today, just went i was trying so hard to forget bout him...he didnt share my feelings for him, so i couldnt cling on to false hopes any longer...
was having my chanbara sabbaticals at SALT centre's foyer...it was quite instructive n now my muscles r kinda tired aft all the lunging and swiping...haha guess i m just weak aft blocks...
at around 2, he came...with 2 of his friends n they stoo d n stare at my sabbats group....he was standing diagonally behind me, on my right, about a metre away...so when i heard the sound of footsteps n turned around, LO AND BEHOLD, there he was... i immediately went "wide-eyed" (O.O) n when he saw me, he did too... so i swerved around n tried to hide... (instincts)...i was hoping he would go b4 we came to the prac part of whatever moves the instructor was talking about...n he disappeared, so i went "whew"...just as we got into our combat positions, n started violently whacking our partners, i looked up, n there he was on the 2nd floor...omg...apparently he"disappeared" into the stairwell...
so again, he "disappeared" a second time. aft he left not long, the instructor gave us a half an hour break...being very hyper at that moment, i asked my frens to go to the gym with me...so we went cardio rm n did some running n then up to the weights rm...guess who was there? BINGO! there he was...i was shocked! firstly, there he was again, next, i nv knew he went gym-ing...(guess most jc guys go, to whip themselves in shape b4 NS) so i went on a "merry-go round" game with him, where he went, i immediately moved to the opp of the rm to avoid him...perhaps n by small luck, he managed not to see me? though the rm was quite small, there were lots of equipments in the way, so maybe...
went out to get a breather while my health nut fren did her situps...went in to call them out...n wow, he was standing behind the doors...so i walk as briskly as i could w/o actually running, n got my frens out...
so back to prac...n when he came out again, another "staring at my sabbats" session...sigh...be still my heart... couldnt help staring at his back as he walked away...sigh, i m a helpless ,love sick fool...
but i didnt noe what to do...i confessed my feelings to him...2 times...thru letters...he nv replied or even acknowledged them...so? he must not share my sentiments...plus, he's avoidance of me on several accounts, left me in no doubt that he didnt wanna speak to me...or even c me...
so i didnt dare...didnt dare look him in the eyes...
all i could do was, look away in embarrassment...sigh love idiot!

2008-06-28T01:35:00.000-07:00

was looking thru my stuff n i found this "poem" that i wrote. wrote it after i watched the charity show that was helping to raise funds for the sichuan earthquake vicitms. yeah, i know, its very long overdue, but i wasnt intending to show the poem here previously. but i just watched a show, where the main character miscarriaged and lost her child, so i guess, i suddenly thought about all the mommies in the world who have lost a child or more, due to natural circumstances, or accidents, wars or illnesses. Or any other ways they might have lost them... it made me feel sad, n thoughtful, about how life is precious n one shouldnt take it for granted...also, it made me reflect about what kind of life i could make for myself...

here's the poem:
The teardrop slid off the corner of her eye.
Staring into the mirror, her lips tremble.
No longer can she live with the lie.
Her life lies in shambles, as her world crumbles.

Pain-filled eyes, open yet unseeing.
Silenty screaming at the Fates for her loss.
With each step she takes, she is no longer believing,
in happiness and beauty that comes without cost.

Listen closely and perhaps, you might hear,
the breaking sound of a mother's heart.
Who holds her baby above all that is dear.
Whom she will never be prepared with to part.

Without the sound of her child's laughter,
the whole world feels deary and grey.
For the child who has the love of a mother,
His depature will mark the sad, endless Day.

i hope all mommies who have been marked by such sad losses will find the strength and courage to move on...may you fly free in the skies...

some cool quotes for ppl experiencing heartbreak:

What is the opposite of two? A lonely me, a lonely you. ~Richard Wilbur

Sometimes I wish I were a little kid again, skinned knees are easier to fix than broken hearts. ~Author Unknown

Relationships are like glass. Sometimes it's better to leave them broken than try to hurt yourself putting it back together. ~Author Unknown

It is foolish to tear one's hair in grief, as though sorrow would be made less by baldness. ~Cicero

A show of envy is an insult to oneself. ~Yevgeny Alexandrovich Yevtushenko

Other quotes from ppl on relationships:

"Snow White. Cinderella. All about wanting a guy, being saved by the guy. Today it's Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Pocahontas. All about getting a guy. So basically we're screwed up because of Disney."

Maybe they are right. Maybe I did get my hopes up too high. Maybe I was in over my head. Maybe I am the stupid one for ever thinking that you loved me, but maybe, just maybe, I am tired of being alone

"I want a love to call my own, I want a boy who I can hold, I want someone wanting me and to feel how it feels to be someone’s somebody."

I loved him. He needed time to think and that was ok- he was worth waiting for... and waiting for... and waiting for. Finally I realized I had waited away my life for an answer he had already given me: Had he loved me back, I would not have had to wait. ~Anonymous

N some funny quotes to brighten u up after the gloom n doom:

Birthdays are good for you. Statistics show that the people who have the most live the longest. ~Father Larry Lorenzoni

An archeologist is the best husband any woman can have; the older she gets, the more interested he is in her. ~Agatha Christie

To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering one must not love. But then one suffers from not loving. Therefore to love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer. To suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy then is to suffer. But suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be unhappy one must love, or love to suffer, or suffer from too much happiness. I hope you're getting this down. ~Woody Allen

My school was so tough the school newspaper had an obituary section. ~Norm Crosby

yo ppl, its ur lucky day today...cos i m in the mood to blog...;D kidding

anyway i realised that i kinda blog only when i m damn sad n wana spill my heartache, or just plian bored...sometimes when i m damn angry, rarely when i m estatic about how life is going now...haha, even if i did when i was happy, it wont be very long nor detailed...why? cos i m simply enjoying my life too much to sit in front of the computer to type...unlike many avid bloggers, i dont blog to breathe...haha, the com is not my "a thing i cant live without" (hmmm, if i get rid of my youtube addiction or if they come up with a free way of accessing youtube w/o a computer) haha, so basically, the blog is full of depressing/emo posts or indignant posts...yep shouldnt read for fun...;D haha, only if u r bored n have nothing beter to do then read the rantings or complaints of a 16-going-on-17 yr old girl...

sigh, I M DEAD FOR BLOCKS!!! that what everyone says, n i totally agree with them, when they hear that i havent started my revision...no! ur ears did not fail you, the widely-proclaimed mugger (which has no basis in fact, just cos i look smart doesnt mean i m smart...in fact, i m a dumb dolt!) has not started her revision for her blocks which is...ONE WEEK AWAY!!! i seriously think congratulations are in order...yep, this girl here is going to win the biggest idiot of the century prize consisting of rotten eggs, red marks in report books n all over the exam papers, scoldings from teachers, extra remedials for who knows how long, n rantings n ravings from irate parents who have high hopes of their daughter... so what m i doing here? blogging instead of studying...some ppl just never learn...oh if i managed to somehow get highly impossible 'S'es for all my subjects (except maybe GP, which i have nv studied for anyway), please give me the million dollars to go with the "i just experienced a super miracle" signboard that i will be wearing if i so attain those grades... i m honestly...screwed!

ok enough of my lack of hard work n motivation...here the second matter i wanted to blog about today...my trip to malaysia...

yep i went malaysia from the 1st of june to the 4th of june...to yong peng on the first day, then second day to genting, third day to KL, then last day arriving back in spore at 7 plus...pm.
can say that for one, ppl who dont wish to spend their time waiting to check in to the hotel in genting, please dont go during the first 2 weeks of the june holidays like i did...guess how long i waited... a record breaking 3HOURS!!! from 2 pm all the way to 5 pm just to check in...why? cos our trip clashed with their local school holidays n public holiday... nv had so much luck at betting before...
but the trip was not entirely wasted, bought 3 tops in KL n some goodies frm yong peng...plus ate some delicious food( n some disgusting n frightfully expensive food too) in yong peng n KL (so can guess where i ate the stomach churning, pocket burning food? No, as my chem lecturer will say then, if u dont know this, you can GO N DIE! hilarious ain't she... ;D)
oh n when my family took a coach bus from yong peng to genting, i saw this absolutely amazing, fantastically hot, blazingly handsome...guy on the bus!!! *wolf whistle* haha, here i go again, me n my "san fen zhong re du" crushes...he looks like a teenage actor...freaking serious...i couldnt take my eyes off him the whole ride...haha felt the ride was too short at its length of 2 n a half hours ;D he gave me sweet dreams...
saw lots of good looking ppl in genting, lots of stylish, "branded" people too...guess u must have moolah to survive genting... everytime i turn my head, there goes a potential person who would have been spotted for some beauty/hunk show...
haha, k done with my usual ranting n ravings...have to get some shut-eye...not i will just fall smack onto my keyboard which will be kinda unhygenic if i drool...though i have nv drooled im my slp since the tender age of 3? haha ;D night pals!

oh if u havent figured, the timing on te posts r kinda "accurate", so dont believe what u see ;D

adios!

2008-05-30T00:34:00.001-07:00

thank god nobody reads my blog...so thus far i can really write what i feel...imagine if my blog was like that of mr brown...whew, everything would have to be censored and all...

troubled...why m i such a romantic...sigh, must be watch too much dramas to believe in true love...worst thing, i m actually waiting for it...so not modern power woman...

another failed romance that didnt actually start...haha bring on the pity party... this girl here has nv been in a b-g realtionship...sound despo? sadly so...not regretting the fact that i actually m involved in several crushes, all of which have been fruitless, but one thing i regret, is actually caring so much that i get heartache time n time again...

call me stubborn, but i just stupidly, dont learn...now why did i have to go buy the band concert ticket...not that i dont want to support one of my good friend who is in band, but that the wounds r still fresh n bleeding...seeing him again would be like poking knives into them (n not those types for healing either...imagine sharp pointed ones which inflict max damage n u r on the right track...) sigh...cant do anything but sigh...though i seriously should start on my hol hw since i m gonna be out of the country frm sun to nxt wed...

do i really need a relationship to make my life full? or just to add spice in my bland as water life? seriously, i wish i wasnt that desperate for a taste of "spice", but cant do anything to stop my heart beating... sigh, disgusted, me too...i m a brillant eg. of an invertebrae...n i need some immediate backbone transplant...

keep telling myself to wake up n "do what a student ought to do"---i.e. studying and mugging and conquering the mountain of homework n revision...but sometimes, i yearn for the times of sunshine (metaphorically meaning freedom...) n open sky, why one has nicer things to look at than the pages of a chemistry lecture notes or working her brain up into a fuss trying to figure out math... gosh... what is childhood i ask? gone in a blink of an eye...sadly, no coming back...

now i really sigh like a cenetarian, yearning for the good old days of youth...gosh, from young love to young life...i simply cant handle anything right, can i...

ok, back to my boring mundane life of trudgery in the pages of my chem n math notes...

2008-05-25T06:21:00.000-07:00

seeing photos of mass destruction...hearing stories of people who did everything to save themselves or their loved ones...talking about how pitiful these ppl were...

somehow, i just feel so helpless...we see, we hear, we speak of the unfairness of this world...yet we in such a privileged society, where we can go about our lives w/o fearing a natural disater, w/o having live in terror of being shot down if we stepped out of our house, of having a high certainty that our dear ones are safe and sound... the majority of us merely has to deal with the "stress" and "competition" that our highly developed society faces...and the stories of earthquakes, of tsunamis, of cyclones, of civil wars just seem so far away... we feel a great sense of pity for those who have to face all these, we even cry when we listen to their stories, we dig deep into our pockets to give what we can...however, we will never come close to understanding... never...

imagine, living somewhere where natural disasters are part and parcel of life...somewhere where you are thankful that u or ur family did not lose ur lives this time...where u stand in front of a demolished house...a house where you once shared all your fun, joy and laughter with ur loved ones...you can only stare in disbelief, shock and despair, yet grateful you were not in there...

no...i guess we cant really imagine...i can only hope that i can grow up into an aware, feeling person...who can contribute to these ppl...i really hope i can...

Beauty In Walking Away

A light shines off in the distance
A pale flickering glow
How many times do I have to dream that I could be there
The time is here and she won't be waiting for me to find the easy way out
I've lost count of the days that were wasted

There's an answer in the sound of a train
There is wisdom past the bridge on the bay
There's a lifetime through the fog, in the rain
There's a beauty in walking away

I float on the streets that are empty
Take the path that the wind only knows
Tonight is the last time that I'll ever be here

There's an answer in the sound of a train
There is wisdom past the bridge on the bay
There's a lifetime through the fog, in the rain
There's a beauty in walking away

It's never quite simple, it's never that safe
It never seems perfect until it's too late
It's never the right time to find a new way

There's an answer in the sound of a train
There is wisdom past the bridge on the bay
There's a lifetime through the fog, in the rain
There's a beauty in walking away

2008-05-04T00:55:00.000-07:00

had one of the most memorable nights of my jc life last night...;D

before the outing, i was slightly apprehensive about the fun factor of the entire programme...not to doubt the apollo 07-08 fac comm's abilities, but i was seriously wondering about what programmes you could offer to keep hundreds of people entertained from 5.30pm to 9.00pm...
but despite these doubts, i decided to go and see for myself the "zai-ness" of the people in charge...
ct79 met at city hall mrt cos most of us didnt really know how to go to timbre@substation, i.e. the venue for the apollo fac outing...so we waited till 5 plus (though the meeting time was suppose to be 5, but due to some very punctual ppl...;s) before we set off, most of us dressed up to fit the smart casual theme...haha, u should have seen me tottering in my pathetic heels which would have made a real heels-wearer scream in disgust...but since i wasn't a frequent heel wearer...seriously, i m proud to say i made it thru the night w/o 1)tripping 2)falling 3)spraining my ankle n 4) tripping, falling and spraining my ankle...for those who know me, u'll be proud of me too ;D
so off we went, walking till we reached fort canning tunnel and the turn-off for timbre...the weather in the evening was horribly humid, making us all sweat like pigs...(hmmm, why pigs though? do pigs sweat gallons?) Timbre is a alfresco dining cafe (yes that means it is in the open) so we were all showing sad faces at the heat and vigourously fanning ourselves with whatever bits of paper we had at hand...we went in and handed over our tickets and got cable ties attached to our wrists before we could go grab the seats allocated to us and some refreshing cold drinks...heavenly, i tell u, those drinks ;D the night started off with a band, with the lead singer being from my senior class, so my friends and i were cheering like crazy...sadly to say we were among the few who cheered...not because the band was lousy (cos it rocks!) but cos everyone was busy catching up with friends and getting drinks (seriously, i tell u, the weather was HOT!) the band performed three songs: 1) Misery Business by Paramore, 2)Harder to Breathe by Maroon 5 and 3) Behind These Hazel Eyes by Kelly Clarkson (haha, everyone sat up and paid attention when the lead singer sang that super duper high part "anymore" ;D if u have no idea what i m talking about, go listen to Behind These Hazel Eyes...)
Some other students also went up to perform, though sadly not many people were paying attention either...because after eveyone cooled down, it was time to satisfy their other needs...THEIR STOMACHS...the line for the buffet table started building up and people were all busy inspecting the array laid out in front of them...the food was quite good, though i didnt really bother queuing up again for a second round...the desert though, was fantastic...heavenly chocolate mousse... a fav for a chocoholic for me ;D
after stomachs were roughly filled, it was time for picture taking...all the snazzy cams cams of various designs and make were flashed out and everyone turned into models for the night...everyone started posing with people they knew, catching a shot here, throwing a smile there...while the two emcees, i.e. the two apollo fac heads, Xuanyi and Ben Poh were trying to grab people's attention to the performers on stage...then it was the intro for the nominees of "Fac Prince and Fac Princess"...they were made to intro themselves, and play several games to entertain the crowd...
as the night passed people became "higher" and laughter filled the air...it was then i saw how u actually made an outing like this successful...u bring friends together...every one were friends yesterday night...smile of enjoyment were flashed out faster than a shopaholic's credit card...it was truely heartwarming...we didnt need spirits to get us all hyped up...i, for one, was drunk on the spirit of the night...
when it was time for us to go, we were seriously reluctant...if we leave, when can we come together like this again? but we had to...many of us lingered outside the place, talking and chatting, hoping just to stay a moment longer...
my friends, the cow, the chicken and the ant, and me, the moon, walked off to a little incline with a tree, and sat down there...just talking and looking up at the velvet night sky...it was a moment of bonding and further discovery...i felt closer with them, there and then, we forged a stronger bond of friendship...we waved and smiled at strangers, wishing them a good night, and getting smiles and waves in return...Singapore is truely a loving place and it is where my heart lies...

the night was brilliantly successful, thanks to the hard work and preparation of the 07-08 apollo fac comm...its their last evening and thus i must say, its a great way to go off with a bang ;D and to those people who went up on stage to perform, i salute u for ur guts! n applaud u for ur talents ;D

apollo peeps, i love u guys ;D

"When You Look Me In The Eyes"

If the heart is always searching,
Can you ever find a home?
I've been looking for that someone,
I'll never make it on my own
Dreams can't take the place of loving you,
There's gotta be a million reasons why it's true.

When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.

How long will I be waiting,
To be with you again
Gonna tell you that I love you,
In the best way that I can.
I can't take a day without you here,
You're the light that makes my darkness disappear.

When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.

More and more, I start to realize,
I can reach my tomorrow,
I can hold my head up high,
And it's all because you're by my side.

When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When I hold you in my arms,
I know that it's forever.
I just gotta let you know,
I never wanna let you go.

When you look me in the eyes.
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.
Oh

just me? or do u feel the way i do... :

at the start of the yr, it was a love w/o hesitation, one w/o boundaries...if u had asked me to rate my love on a scale from 1 to 10, my answer is simple...off the scale. why? bcos i was willing to do anything for him. making a fool of myself just to get a smile, going all out to make him feel better... a smile, just one, would have made not only my day, but my week. everytime i turn a corner, my heart starts beating fast, heralding his POSSIBLE arrival... only a possibility, yet it never fails to achieve that dry mouth effect. then what if i actually saw him? well, my smile could have powered the entire nation for a year if u were able to harness its energy...making detours just to pass his bench, maybe catch a glimpse of him, better yet, a smile of acknowledgement...

soon, the detours became the usual day-to-day route...yet it somehow changed...waxing on and on about him was ritual...the mind was on him, but the heart wasnt in it...not seeing him doesnt seem that much of a disaster afterall...was it falling out of love? yet it couldnt be the case cos a smile from him still generates warmth in my being...was the love gone? or merely the excitement of initial love?

many a times i thought of giving up in him, cos he just wasnt returning the feelings...n the problem with continual giving? it's not only tiring, but heartbreaking too...hopes flash up and down like a stock market gone crazy...yet it always ends with a crash...in the real world, the business would have long been kicked out of the market...so should i cut my losses and drop the matter...

yet this teeny weeny itsy bitsy hope still drags my steps...what if he feels the way i feel for him? n is just lag in replying...or showing? perhaps, a bit longer...just a bit more...

n the "bit" drags on...yet i still havent gave up...cos the hope still lives on in me...a tiny stubborn flame...that wavers but never dies...a flame that could warm u for a lifetime, or one to extinguish ur life...

one-sided love is painful...yet if we never experience it, would we still be able to treasure a two-sided relationship? people out there, feeling the same way i do, think of the blessings, perhaps wish on a star...those of you with the one u love who loves u back, count on your lucky stars...n perhaps make a wish for me?

2008-04-07T07:07:00.000-07:00

woots! was having my usual "monday high" at soccer prac today...haha famous for being super high on monday when ppl usually have "monday blues" ;D
recently,my soccer skills either remained stagnant or deproved, so was very dissatisfied with my performance during pracs...however today, i got possessed...by an average professional soccer player, n i went rushing around like siao...haha even scored a goal, though most of the credit should go to xian cos she kicked the first ball n i scored on the rebound off the goalie's legs...so yeah ;D haha maybe just lucky...hope i can improve from here, not get worse again...cos tournament is starting next wed!!! n i hope that we can at least get into semis...so go hc girls soccer! ;D haha, we should overcome our match jitters n play like we do during prac, then we will be damn pro...
going to support water-polo team tmr, its their finals against rjc...so go guys! ;D
haha, blog about the results if i have the time...
n wish me luck for soccer tournament! ;D

2008-04-06T07:07:00.000-07:00

heyo...had a terrifying experience today...a potential disaster situation that could result in me losing my eyes...both of them...
oh how i thank god that i didnt...n to scold myself in putting myself in danger...plus all the other sacrifices...from my mother...
why in the world did i want it so much last time? perhaps it was vanity, or maybe just following the crowd... it could be due to laziness...though the upcoming soccer tournament was a trigger, a trigger that hasten me towards that danger...
how much time have i spent learning to deal with it? the self-inflicted discomfort, the time wasted on learning about it which i could have spent on finishing my due tutorials? n how in the world do people get use to it? they say it gets easier with time...will it?

okok, so far, r u worried about my seemingly sucidal tendencies...n can u guess what in the world m i referring to? haha, its not really what u think...but my advice to ppl like me who got a low discomfort threshold n unlike me, little vanity n little need to, please dont follow in my footsteps...

DON'T.....
EVER....
GET....

CONTACTS!!! ;D

2008-04-03T08:06:00.000-07:00

*slap! slap! slap! bang! bang! bang!*

thats the sound of me inflicting self-punishment...mentally...
sigh...why was i so stupid...ming ming know that i cant, still go do, end up causing emotional pain to myself...sigh...

ok, but i shouldnt look back...i should go forward!!! yes, u go girl! chiong...

n i m thinking of giving up on my *er-hm crush*...nothing, zilch, nada so far...feel depress if it drags on...one-sidedness is painful n depressing...so should i?

2008-03-24T05:26:00.000-07:00

"I Can Wait Forever"

You look so beautiful today
When you're sitting there it's hard for me to look away
So i try to find the words that i could say
I know distance doesn't matter but you feel so far away
And I cant lie
Every time I leave my heart turns gray
And I want to come back home to see your face
And I
Cause I just cant take it

Another day without you with me
Is like a blade that cuts right through me
But I can wait
I can wait forever
When you call my heart stops beating
When you're gone it wont stop bleeding
But I can wait
I can wait forever

You look so beautiful today
It's like every time I turn around I see your face
The thing I miss the most is waking up next to you
When I look into your eyes, I wish that I could stay
And I cant lie
Every time I leave my heart turns gray
And I want to come back home to see your face
And I
Cause I just cant take it

Another day without you with me
Is like a blade that cuts right through me
But I can wait
I can wait forever
When you call my heart stops beating
When you're gone it wont stop bleeding
But I can wait
I can wait forever

I know it feels like forever
I guess that's just the price I gotta pay
But when I come back home to feel your touch
Makes it better
Till that day
Theres nothing else that I can do
And I just cant take it
I just cant take it

Another day without you with me
Is like a blade that cuts right through me
But i can wait
I can wait forever
When you call my heart stops beating
When you're gone it wont stop bleeding
But I can wait
I can wait forever
I can wait forever
I can wait forever...

To many, this song may strike a chord with you. For those who ever had a crush in someone before, u know this feeling.

To those who are with someone they love, treasure them well...For those who have fallen out of a relationship, may your heart heal n may you dare to love again...

i would rather crush a thousand times n have my heart broken, trampled or thrown away then to ever not experience love at all...u think i m stupid, or perhaps desperate...yet perhaps you should go find out for yourself, why many actually think and feel like me... to not love, is to not live...when u have an opportunity to love, grab with both hands and hold on tight...coz u r the lucky few who would ever experience love before...

for me, i m still waiting...hopefully i will get to live my life fully...n to get to love and be loved...

"Crush"
How i wish you could see what i feel for you
And maybe what i wish for us would then come through
The thought of you puts a smile on my face
You've got me churning in a love-sick craze
When i hear you call my name
The sweet sound lights up my heart's flame
The sight of you takes my breath away
This feeling over which i have no say
Whatever reply you may choose to give
You are the reason for which i live

2008-03-12T03:24:00.000-07:00

"No Love"
Staring out into the world across the street
You hate the way your life turned out to be
He's pulling up in the driveway and you don't make a sound
Cause you always learn to hold the things you want to say
Your always going to be afraid

[Chorus:]
There's only hate
There's only tears
There's only pain
There is no love here
Oh so what will you do?
There's only lies
There's only fears
There's only pain
There is no love here

Broken down like a mirror smashed to peices
You learned the hard way to shut your mouth and smile
If these walls could talk they would have so much to say
Cause everytime you fight the scars are gonna heal but there never gonna go away

[Chorus:]
There's only hate
There's only tears
There's only pain
There is no love here
Oh so what will you do?
There's only lies
There's only fears
There's only pain
There is no love here
Oh no So what will you do?

Your falling, your screaming
Your stuck in the same old nightmare
He's lying, your crying
There's nothing left to salvage
Kick the door cause this is over
Get me out of here(Kick the door)

[Chorus:]
There's only hate
There's only tears
There's only pain
There is no love here
Oh so what will you do?
There's only lies
There's only fears
There's only pain
There is no love here
Tell me what will you do?
There's only hate
There's only tears
There's only pain
There is no love here.

Don't just sit there! Fight for what's yours...U may feel u have no right...but u ain't got nothin' to lose...Stop sitting and staring...with eyes wide with fear...do something quick...or lest u die tmr...

2008-03-07T23:38:00.000-08:00

hey ;D writing today in a choc colour ;D haha cos i feel like eating, but i cant cos i just recovered from a bad cough. anyway, went for student council's expose today. was from 8 to 1...that had the intro of the entire council with the standing comittees n working ones....n that had this session where a teacher briefed us on the bad side of council n to rethink our choice to join council...
i was quite bothered actually, by the very same issue that the teacher was talking about, a few days ago for some time. the very issue of coping. cos my results aint very good now...n i noe if i run, they r sure to drop...the prob is, by how much...cos there's someone pushing me from behind, n they r my parents. they wont be happy if there's like a drastic drop in my results. i know i will try to keep up with my schwork, but whether they trust me to do so, is another huge major problem. guess i have to have a major talk with them... another major consideration for me, is soccer...i wanna do both, council n soccer...but i know i cant...so very confused over that issue...
then i decided, that i would run, n try my best to get in. not because i want to give up soccer, but because i know council will be something more rewarding if i succeed, both emotionally and mentally. not to say soccer is just a game for me, but, no offense, although its my passion too, i dont see myself going anywhere with soccer. i wanna get into council partly cos i really wanna do something for the sch, for my friends (not to sound "communist") but its really what i m heartfelt about... n sigh, sacrifices have to be made. since council starts in june, if i get in, n i REALLY hope i do (cross my fingers n toes...), n soccer tournament is in april, i wil give my all for soccer tournament n not let my soccer mates down. cos they r really a cool bunch of ppl n dedicated to the team. i really love them...
council is a challenge, a challenge i m ready to take on... yet this challenge is a super huge one...so i really need all ur help. cos i noe i m gonna be really stress n tired if i get into council, n become this super no life person...so sorry, but this is what i want to see myself doing, n i hope u guys will support me... thanks ;D
Note: this is not a campaign speech, n if u think so, then u r not really my friend.... -.- seriously, its what i really feel...

bye yo ;D

2008-03-01T23:38:00.000-08:00

ever had times when u feel like screaming at the world...or just shut urself in the room n dont come out for a decade...or perhaps just bury ur head in the proverbial sand so u dont have to face anything?
council campaigning started last fri, 29th Feb, leapyear day...but i havent got a group yet...n here i thought juggling with council n sch work or getting ppl to vote me into council were the hard parts... n here comes another hugh whammer of a problem, finding a group...its understandable for ppl to want to run with the best group, so they stand a higher chance of getting in...but why give us the false hope, n let us keep it for so long, b4 wrenching it away when its quite late for us to do anything about it...
point to note here: i dont blame u for doing this kind of thing, cos u dont share friendship or kinship with me...i just find it hard to understand, why offer something u r not able to give in the first place...
so now, its time for the "begging"...pleading ppl to join u n help u achieve ur dreams...the road to success is a long one filled with sharp stones, high mountains, steep valleys and monsters behind the trees... to reach success, u got to bleed, sweat and sacrifice ur pride...u also have to keep walking into walls no matter how painful u may find it...cos u have no other choices...
being an sc holds appeal to many, thus competition is high n its absolutely essential to make as big an impact as possible on ppl... yet now making that impact encompass being known already...me being an "outsider" face bigger problems than most...
but here i m n this is what i will say: i will not give up...till my last breathe i will fight...yet fight honourably i will...no betrayal, no sacrifices from others...if need be, i will do the sacrifices... but if u cross my path, i will not hesitate to scream at u...though i cannot order u to do anything... i fervently hope this dream of mine can come through...n i will try all means to make it happen...

2008-02-26T03:47:00.000-08:00

Apollo rocked the house down last night! ;D during, POP!, though we didnt win first prize for the fac dance [we won 2nd though ;D], i really feel that we all have done ourselves proud. Winning the prize isnt all that matters, we can choose all the super pro dancers to represent our fac so that we look good, if we had really wanted to win...but we didnt, all of us, whether we knew how to dance the Apollo fac dance or dont know at all or only know some parts of it, all of us went out that and dance with warmth, spirit and excitement n just shouted our hearts out...i think that in itself, is the greatest achievement that the fac dance has achieved. how many occasions can offer a group of unrelated people, besides being schmates and/or ex-schmates, a chance to bond and develop a strong faculty spirit? How many events can make people with varying interests and hobbies "gell" and shout out with passion? How often do u feel like giving ur very best for something that u belong too, whether it is your faculty, school or country?
Ans: NOT MANY!
therefore, i really feel that the Apollo fac dance is the best, and i believe all Apollo-ians will agree with me! it's the first time many of us have really felt like dancing, i believe, cos i for one feel that way ;D So for those Apollo-ians who r feeling sad that we didnt win first prize, just dont think about the prize and just focus on what you have gained as a person and as an Apollo-ian throughout the whole process. What is really important has been summarised into the Apollo motto: LIVE LOUD! LIVE PROUD! we have been totally "rocking!" for the dance, n Apollo dance totally bombed! thats what we should be proud of ;D
and thus here, i think we have some very important people to thank i.e. the Apollo FAC COMM!
the dance ics have done a great job cheorographing the dance and a fantastic job teaching it. they have sacrificed lots of their precious time to stay back to teach us the fac dance and even more time for special tuition sessions ;D The fac heads have fired up the Apollo spirit with their enthusiam and active and vigorous involvement in the whole process ;D N not to forget the rest of the fac comm for the hard work and sacrifices :D
However, i would also like to congratulate Ares for winning the fac dance competition. ;p
i would thus end with this: It's faith in something and enthusiasm for something that makes a life worth living. [Oliver Wendell Holmes]

2008-02-22T19:04:00.000-08:00

sorry if i m very lazy...but is partly cos i'm busy ;D
so tata! ;p

2008-01-27T01:19:00.000-08:00

hey my loves! glad to c me aft my long period of laziness? haha...since sch started, i m very busy, so forgive me..;p
anyway, many of u have, in the past, asked me why i chose the 'o' level route...n perhaps then i couldnt give u guys a satisfactory answer. well, know i can. i was, n am, wishing for an experience that i experienced n am experiencingin hwa chong now. i felt that staying in the same place for six years would cause me to lose the ability to discover new sides of myself. perhaps many of you think i m going crazy [;)] but its the truth... i m having a great time at hwa chong, though i really miss u guys in dhs, n i m CROSSING MY FINGERS THAT I CAN STAY IN HWA CHONG! haha, for those of you that dont know yet, i got a, what i felt was disappointing, result of 7 points for my L1R5...wait stop! dont say i m crazy, but believe personal satisfaction in this case is more impt than what others feel is already very good...
the one and the half week of orientation was wonderful, except the academic talks which were sleep-inducing, n an eye-opening experience. every school has its own culture, n i can really feel hwa chong's is a rich and colourful one. the orientation games with my orientation group, or OG for short, was super fun...n i really miss OG 30!!! haha...every one of them are brillant and vibrant individuals that made me fell in love with hwa chong, but not to discount the friendly seniors who have put in great effort to organise this orientation and make us j1s feel welcome ;D three cheers for u guys! and lots of hugs n kisses!
my class, 08S79, is full of lovable people that i really really like...i m especially touched that they called me to have a chat on results day cos they knew i was sad... ( thanks to jing qi too!!! ;p) i was really really moved by their actions. n the people i there r just wonderfully crazy n super super high! i really feel we can make a legacy of our own ;p 79! we were all super high on campfire night n just jumped the night away ;p haha, all the songs, cheers n dance left me breathless;p
n how many schools can boast that they have a totally original game that has been passed down from generation to generation and is an orientation tradition? well hwa chong has! n its the totally crazy and memorable WARGAMES! haha, gogogo APOLLO! although my faculty didnt win, we really put up a tough defence against the other facs when they came 3v1 against us! "why r we so pro, cos we're Apollo!" ;D seriously, its not something u will ever forget in ur life if u ever experienced it!
another wonderful thing about hwa chong: its wonderful culture of songs, cheers and dance! haha, the Apollo fac dance is the coolest n the hottest! n we'r gonna win the fac dance competition on 25th feb! haha, though the fac dances of other facs r nothing to turn up ur nose at... ;D n Apollo people r the highest! haha. bullboy!
last but not least, the seniors!!! 07S79 r just wonderful! we went for senior-treat-junior (stj) outing at Fish n Co. yesterday ;D (jealous?)... they r nice friendly people who will nv make u feel sian...u guys rock! ;p n my mortal is the best!
thinking of joining soccer or student council in hc ;D so yea apollo peeps vote for me when i m running for council! ;D
k bye, n people frm dhs, i wont forget u guys too!

muacks to all u people! ;p

oh, here's some news, haha, i didnt know my 61 years old uncle had a blog! haha, hey dont get me wrong! i m not someone who discriminates against the elderly, just wanna point out that elderly who keep in touch with new technological fads are highly commendable! ;D proud of my uncle! plus he was a teacher somemore;p

abt the choir chalet details, go check out other blogs, too lazy to type, but in short, the turnout was slightly disappointing n we spent the whole night playing mahjong/cards...haha got myself some disciples in bridge...gotta say, its quite an intellectual card game ;D

as many of u should already have known (haha, gossip spreads faster than a bushfire!), i m gonna be spending my first 1 to 1 n a half months in hwa chong...yeah, u all would say congrats right? but to me, save it for if i get in after the 'o' level results come out n i still get in ;D haha, not to be ungrateful, but truth is, my confidence level is like way down there (careful, dont step on it! ;p) i myself know how i fare, n i m really scared that it was not very well...at least ur own teachers can moderate...oh to think of the bio paper 2 n prac now, my head still hurts! plus the chem, wanna slap myself... but what is done is done, can only pray now;p so pray for me! haha...

raining heavily out there now, n some of the water is leaking through the gaps in my windows onto the floor! haha, actually i really love thunderstorms...but only if i m safe at home! haha, joking, actually, if i m in the mood to get soaked n there's someone who loves a soaking as much as i do, call me out on a rainy day! haha, just forget the thunder n lightning though, that will be nicer to watch w/o the danger of being struck ;p

school's gonna reopen soon, so all those who haven finished their homework, u've got 54 hours to do so! (if u prepare to forgo sleep n the new yr celebrations that is! ;p) ALL THE BEST! haha, to those people waiting for 'o' level results, cheers! we've got NO HW! haha...really nervous bout going to a new school though, n really miss u guys at DHS...but hey, i've got no regrets! i would still have chosen the 'o' level path hundred times over (unless u give me a million bucks! haha, joking ;p) [though i really regret not studying harder for drugs! boohoo!] but no matter what path u have chosen, just dont regret it! if u ever regret any choices (unless its a bad one) SLAP URSELF! cos life's too short for regrets! ;D

a belated merry christmas to all n a very WONDEFUL NEW YEAR! CHEERS! ;D

p.s. jia you for next yr, its the yr of the rat! so watch out for those who fan tai sui! ;p

2007-12-04T06:26:00.000-08:00

hey yoyo people! haha long overdue post is here!
was overseas from 23rd to 27th Nov, went to Malaysia ;D
took bus 170 to the johor checkpt then my aunt's friend's car to the hotel in yong peng. Actually its more like an...inn. seriously. the room was tiny n the bathroom was cramped. ok i know i sound spoilt, but just stating the facts. it was a completely new exp for privileged old me. haha, luckily still can watch s'pore channels ;p
next morning, woke up. guess what? there was no...WATER! yeah, apparently all the third floor rooms had no water, so had to brush my teeth in the public toliet downstairs. in the end, we got a refund for the second night and went to our aunt's friend house to stay for the second night in yong peng.
okok, backtrack a bit, that was the second night. during the second morning, we went to see some lucky fishie. haha, u were suppose to try n touch them, n if u could, u would be lucky. n second exp of the trip, the fish were HUGE! i mean it! from head to tail, it could be as tall as me! so there we were, everybody stretching our arms out beneath the railing to "get some luck"! haha, smooth really, the feeling if u r interested. ;D
the second night, went to aunt's friend's house to sleep. he lived in a real plantation house. bet not many of you out there in singapore have stayed in one before ;p. it was my third exp for the trip. the house had 6 rooms, n 4 wild-tame dogs. (wild dogs who became tame but still ran wild, aiya, talk to me if you still dont understand ;s ) the house had no heater, so we had to boil it in pots before mixing it with the cold tap water to get warm water ;p then we had to stand n pour water over our heads like what you see in those old movies in china ;p no offense ;)
but it was really quaint, seriously, all u over-privilaged people in singapore should go exp this at least once in your life time. seriously. then u will learn to love ur heater more ;p
third day, we took a coach up to KL where we then crashed in the hotel. the trip was...boring. watched constantine on tv cos in KL can no longer receive s'pore channels. the hotel was luxurious. haha, its the cititel hotel, megacity, if u r interested. slept like i didnt sleep in ten days ;p
next day, its SHOPPING! haha, you wont want to ask how much i spent, but hey, i need to replenish my wardrobes over the year w/o shopping ('o' levels, rmb?) my feet were really aching like crazy. oh, tried this amazing "melting" char siew for lunch at this side stall recommended by my aunt. apparently the owners only work from 11.30am to 2 pm. serious, no joke. its their reputation that earn them the money. we were lucky to buy the last bit ;D heavenly sinful. ;)
next day, it was a whole day of bus ride all the way from KL to lucky gardens to Spore's lavender. bushed. back home for dinner at 7 plus n then konked out.

kay thats all. blogged bout the choir chalet another day.;p
bye!

2007-09-08T06:24:00.000-07:00

heyyz...here to say something...Pavarotti is dead...sobz, okok, i know i lag, he actualy passed away 3 days ago...sigh great singer...no idea bout the person though...
here's my agenda: today i m here to defend all muggers...open muggers that is...i hate muggers who r muggers but make fun of n criticise other muggers...so hypocritical...
1) muggers are actually smart because they start early, then they wont suffer from massive heart coronary when the time comes.
2) muggers who managed their time well have vibrant social lives too, they dont spend their whole day buried in the books.
3)muggers show that they are responsible by taking responsibility for their grades
4)muggers who are not afraid of admitting that they actually look at their books once in a while should be respected because they are not afraid of being out of the norm.
5)muggers are a derogatory term because they also mean pickpockets (but for lack of a short n more appropriate term, n for the public to know what i m referring to, i shall continue to use it)

sadly, i m not a mugger, i would not be having such a hard time cramming 2 years worth of stuff into, a few weeks? craziness is really a thin line away... n all this wont happen if u started studying earlier. childhood is not a bed of roses, so ADAPT!

ok speaking of studying, off to hit the sheets, exhausted from all the absorbing ...
oh n to all o level students "chionging" for exams now, music helps u to relax n get your second bout of energy when u feel like jumping off the nearest twenty storey building (haha ok just kidding ;p, but it helps u refreshed so go on...;p)

oh n i, like pmz ;p, will not be blogging anytime in the near future unless i got something real BIG to put here, n its will be BIG ;p so sorry guys, n come back after my 'o' levels! ;p
byee;p

2007-09-07T04:33:00.000-07:00

hello!!! haha, saw something very funny after lunch today at the court opp my house... there was this two bros, who r quite notorious in my primary school for being mischievous tykes, n they were playing with a soccer ball. then these two other boys came down with another ball n apparently the four of them would played together... i saw e younger of the 2 bros "attack" on of the other boy...they were rolling on the floor n the other boy (from the latter group) came to help his companion and attack the younger bro by, get this, punching his butt... omg, when i saw this i fell on the floor laughing. so funny ;p lol, then the they were like lying on the poor younger bro n punching his butt, while the younger bro kept calling for help from his older brother...haha

anyway, to those who love watching taiwan oui xiang xi ju,n r a bit lagger then me, go catch "Wei Xiao Pasta" aka "Smiling Pasta" which features Zhang Dong Liang and Wang Xin Ling...WAIT! don't be prejudiced against the show upon hearing their names, the show totally rocks! haha, its super funny, cute and sweet...;p for those who r not really ardent fans of oui xiang ju, jusst try this show, its really very nice, guarantee you all will like ;p haha besides zhang dong liang is looks quite cute in the show ;p

yep, spent my birthday studying ;( haha, poor thing right, but 'o' level is like that... but hey, don't get me wrong...i will NEVER regret taking the 'o' level path, because i think it will always be the right choice for me...i m someone who live for changes n staying too long in the same environment will turn me mouldy... but anyway good luck to those in dhp, cos i heard the criteria for graduating just got higher;p n to next year o level batch jia you!
to these year o level batch, esp dhs de, ALL THE BEST AND REACH HIGH FOR THE STARS YOU WANT YOUR NAME ON ;p haha

trying my best not to scream from hitting the books everyday n my dear old dad constant (understatement) "friendly advice". so trying not to die...
N CHOIR JUNIORS, START PLANNING CHOIR CHALET AS SOON AS POSSIBLE (MEANING NOW!) not i overly eager or naggy, but seriously because our seniors never told us have to plan early, n we started planning only aroung exam time, n we couldn't get ANY good chalet...seriously, we ended up, as u all know, in the lousy and ex chalet we were in last year...
so i m not joking, get cracking...its not that hard, just go online and type aloha, then choose the loyang (or any one) de then go in choose date n book
need someone with civil service card though, but thats not hard at all...a lot of parents are civil servants... n please book after 14 of november!!! thanks ;p

okok, end here, cause my break ends here ;p bye!

2007-08-26T06:17:00.000-07:00

2007-08-09T22:49:00.000-07:00

anyone in the mood for a love story? ok here's one:

In the year 1996, in the month of October, a 16-year-old girl was 'blinded' by love. The couple were longtime friends in Gan Eng Seng Sec. Their love for each other had started when they were in sec 3, but their love marathon only started wen they were both 16. Their love marathon continued on through junior college, through the two years when the guy was serving his duty to the nation, and through university overseas. They were both avid runners, both having been in the track and field team in their junior college. Throughout their JC years, their friends knew nothing about their relationship, yet their love was strong enough to survive 9 years, and many years later. Both of them are tan and healthy-looking, with quick, flashing, white grins. Their friendliness and passion for each other, and their easy companionship with each other were clearly evident even after only a night of first acquaintance. It was also clear that there were well-loved by their friends from the ribbing and jokes that were thrown out over the course of dinner. Their easy-on-the-eye looks were further emphasized by the spark of love in their eyes. Seeing their wedding photos and videos yesterday night made me feel humbled by the evidence of such strong love even though i barely knew this wonderful couple. I wished them all the best on their marathon of love and everlasting bliss.

Yep, the couple mentioned above was my mom's cousin and his new bride who tied the knot on Aug 8 and threw their wedding dinner on Aug 9 yesterday. Made me feel really...wistful. ;p Anyway, if u wan to c how they look like and all, get their wedding website from me ;p
Haha, true love always make me sentimental... ;p
The wedding was held at Sheraton Hotel...u should have seen the ballroom super brilliant deco...haha, i was fascinated by the lights in particular...oh ya, feel very happy last night, the waitress asked me whether i was old enough for wine! haha, mature me *wink* ;p
Sigh, dun we all love weddings ;p

2007-08-07T04:57:00.000-07:00

wanna say: i love u Jing Qi! haha, to those who dun noe me, no i not les or anything...just that, she sent me the songs i love!!! omg, u r so great muacks! haha... HOIST THE COLOURS!!! super cool ;p
anyway, tmr will be national day celebration and guess what? 4A has to stay back for maths lessons after the concert, isnt it wonderful...sigh, i wonder why our batch just cant learn finish e syllabus in time...n if we cant finish, there goes our sat morning, waving its butt at us... ming ku...n its not only maths, theres still geog n chem...haiz...
oh ya, tmr choir going to perform with a celeb!!! haha, wun tell n spoil the fun...anyway, JIA YOU choir, u peeps can do it!!! sing your hearts out for the nation man! ;p haha, my pri sch is having sing singapore now as i m typing...its held around the same time every yr n its a competition where all the classes take part n put together a concert for national day...oh, not all the classes, but the finalists from each level...anyway, sherry is there now watching her younger brother performing...speakin of national day songs, this year's song is really quite difficult to sing...haha typing to the sound of "Home"...yep, i can hear the lyrics plus the little kiddie voices...haha free sound ;p

1) monday was our racial harmony day celebration (due to fri being part of idmi week and all that) was quite slack cos my lessons were double pe, recess then double maths. ;p then it was concert, the first part was quite dumb, the learning some kind of silat-dance thing part, then it was the real concert which was quite ok cos i was sitting with the 4d class (fan was facing there n i was super hot) so i was toking to zhuo fei throughout most of the concert... then after the concert we went home...
2)tuesday was normal except that i saw my shuai ge!!! haha, i realised he goes to school earlier on Tues...so yeah *wink* anyway, he was with his fren and they were laughing away...(warning: i m gonna sound like a hua chi...) that was e first time i saw him smile and laugh! CUTE! haha;p

4) Thurs was the start of the idmi week, so i took e bus with my mum...anyway, he sat beside me on the busstop seat! haha, no lah, no special meaning cos the other seats were filled...anyway when the bus came, he stood and walked in front of me just as i stood up so i could roughly estimate our height compatability...n i can happily say that they are quite compatible...haha ;p
5) saw my shuai ge again cos these last two days i took the later bus...so now i noe *wink*

haha, ok, shall stop toking abt some guy unknown to all ;p
prelim oral is next mon!!! first paper is on the 24th of aug... wowee
ok bye ;p

2007-07-01T21:08:00.000-07:00

whee...haha...today i m gonna tell some ppl (those i have things to say to and i noe will read my blog de ;p) somethings so here it is:

1)Jing Qi:
u r the pres, so u gotta learn how to separate ur emotions from your decisions...i know u r someone who gets pissed off by some ppl very easily, but rmb, u cannot show this bcoz the whole choir will be looking at you now. yep, they will be seeing how you treat certain ppl and therefore you have to appear just and fair...i know talk very easy, but here's some tips for you:
(a) whatever you do, u have to try to hide your weaknesses, that is, you cannot show your fears and dislikes...being the pres means u gotta do things that u wun like...so all the best ;p
(b) keep a diary or tok to ppl u trust (make sure they wun spread it) about things that r bothering you, so that u wun get too stressed...
(c) handling the teachers will be a tough job as you will find out in the future, but always smile when you see them cos then u will be "on their side" ;p
(d) being pres will surely get you some lousy feedback due to some decisions being dislike by some, but hey, u cant please everyone, so just stay happy ;p

p.s. need any help can just look for any of us ;p, n rmb JUST HAVE FUN! ;p

2) Tricia
being the student conductor is quite tough, but i think u will have the ability to handle this job...you have really prove yourself to be a good sl and already command the respect of most of the choir. i heard abt you arranging all those handover pracs, so good job girl. being in these position will always cause some ppl to think that they can do the job better than you, but just let them try n when they fail, help them up and go on your way ;p (ps, there will always be ag 100 in this world) so you go girl ;p

3) Wansi
hey gurl, sop sl leh ;p haha, anyway an sl must be more patient k, cos afterall they r still juniors...anyway, being an sl, u should go understand the strengths and weaknesses of the members of ur section so that you can work better with them...know u have good musical abilities so sure can de ;p JIA YOU loh!

4) Lydia
u too sop sl, know u r frens with many of the juniors so tha's good..but being a senior and in the comm, u have to find a way to make ur stand clear during the practices (know is hard haha, but u have to try;p) anyway, work together with wansi to shape the sops up (into hourglas fig. haha jk ;p) CHEERS!

To the rest of the comm:

the sec 4s were all asked to stand at one side while the juniors set up their stuff...zhuo fei, yu xuan, sherry and me gave kathleen her bday present while we waited...she laughed at sherry"s tomato n my grey singlet-yellow shorts card ;p ok, anyway, e waiting time was sorta long...when we finally (haha jk) got to go into e lt, we were welcomed like stars haha, thx juniors ;p
we started off with one of e sec 4s song: soleram...anyway, we recorded it n omg, haha, it was sorta out of tune ;p haha then it was e juniors' turn. OMG! i was so touched! they sang the lion sleeps tonight with edited lyrics that they wrote for us... sweet right ;p then they sang amigos para siempre...song about frens...though e high notes werent reached (;D) e thought was there...haha, this song made kat cry cos she taught it to them in sec one...then they sang to everything there is a season, which we sang along...
then the passing down ceremony started...we passed down starting from welfare to the pres...haha, got some unexpected problems with the masks coz none of us had the experience of tying them...lolz...kennard and zixuan one was super funny...kennard was like "bend down!" then zixuan squatted all the way, everyone was like laughing;p haha, my mask was quite nicely tied if i said so myself haha (jk lah ;p)
then zhuofei made a speech and started tearing. she then sang this chi song called hao ting;p

2007-06-27T05:36:00.000-07:00

Wah, super tired now...sch today ended at 3.45pm but had maths supp till 5.15...haha, what made it worse was that the last lesson of the day was also maths...lol...2 hours straight of maths...wonderful right...
haha, mon was the first day of sch, n i already committed a boo-boo...lolz ;p
i was walking briskly to my class for morning flag-raising n then i tripped over this ledge...i fell on my knees n now there's this open wound the sizo of a fifty cent coin on my left knee...n my right knee has a scrape...haha, real graceful right...think i must have been too sleepy...;p
anyway, my third earhole has been seriously shocked a few people since i pierced my three earholes on the 2nd Sun of the hols...seriously, i m just surprised that it has created such commotion...just wana tell u guys (if u r still seriously shock about the location of my third earhole), a hole is a hole where it is doesnt matter...a earhole doesnt show the character of the person...just get over it and stop dropping your jaws...I M STILL ME NO MATTER WHERE MY EARHOLE IS LOCATED! ACCEPT IT! i mean its not like u have never seen anyone who has pierced there before right...pls, our sch already has some...besides, stop askin me why i pierce there, it like askin someone why they pierce their nose or naval...the answer is simple: I LIKE IT!
ok, now that we have get over the matter of my earhole, let's continue...God, i really detest this teacher of mine...she's totally manipulative and sly...making the decision w/o consulting everyone is simply dictatorial and super rude...she purposely announce the decision at the last minute so that we have no choice but to accept it lah...outrageous and presposterous!( spelt correctly?) grrrh...she should go eat...dung...growl...
sigh, this fri handover is so going to flop ;(, just got this feeling *shrugs* hope i m wrong...no pray.

2007-06-17T02:57:00.000-07:00

hello...here to blog bout my cip yesterday...haha was too tired to blog after e event so decided to postpone it till today...
anyway, in the morning went for the family day thing at downtown east...
anyway the place was super CROWDED!!!haha, everybody took opportunity of the cheap tickets to plan a whole family outing...anyway, my dad queued super long for some free yakults (spelled this way?) while my mum decided to go for the kachang puteh...lol...
we went to the wild wild wet entrance after consuming our beverages and snacks, but it was not opened yet...haha, it was a real fluke...we went at 8, n e place opened at 10...but by 9.30, e crowds started queuing up to enter... so then we waited, n waited n waited...finally!!!we go in...;p
we played like everything there in like 40 mins? it was super not worth it...but since its free, we din really mind...haha, then i had a quick lunch n had to rush off for my cip at bugis, where we were suppose to gather at 12.30...
got there, met wenyi n irene, and collected our cans n stickers n off we went...
wenyi n i went to raffles place, where this security guard scolded us, n there was like no outdoor place to collect donations...
so next stop, orchard...bah..it started raining so by the time we got out at the station, we were stuck...couldnt get out...when the rain let off, we went along lucky plaza and tangs that stretch to start our collection...but to our horror and dismay, there were already three groups of collectors there, same organisation (disabled people's association) , different schools...lol...so we decided to change the location...
we finally decided on toa payoh hub, cos it was like sheltered and had lots of people...went we reached there, guess what they were having? the filming of you3 hua4 ju4 shuo1...so quan yifeng was there...anyway, think they were like doing on some topic on romance or something like that...haha, lots of people were watching the free entertainment...
anyway, after collecting some money, we were quite tired so we went to the macs to have a break...haha, the macs there is SUPER COOL...ok it was the staff there...very friendly...me n wenyi were sitting down, eating (me lime sundae, she burger n lemon tea) n talkin when this nice man came and ask whether he could sit at our table cos we were sitting at a table for four...so we were like sure. he looked at our collecting cans and put some money into mine...haha so nice right? [cos we couldnt ask for donations in an establishment] he asked us about the organisation and why we were doing cip when we were having 'o's later on in the year and such questions... i thought he was a customer waiting for his friend to buy something...anyway, then his friend came to sit with us,and he too put money in my can lol... very nice;p then he asked us the like around the same questions and his friend answered for us haha...so i was still under the impression they were waiting ofr somebody to purchase some food...but then the manager of that macs came over and start talking too...then there was this commotion at the counter when this lady dropped her bag of cans of beer on the floor...everybody was just looking when the men opposite us asked the manager to get the poor lady a bag...then i knew they were in charge...
so when we ate finish, we politely ade our excuses and left...but when we went out, wenyi and me were like, wow, nice people...haha [wah, i just realised i typed so much about them ;p]
anyway, we continued collecting met some more memorable characters during the collection...
first, we realised that collecting from ah bengs was wenyi's forte lol [just jk!!!]...then wenyi "fell into a swoon" with this cool guy who donated to her;p for me, i was impressed at this girl...
she saw me walking with the can, then she took out her wallet and shook it but there was no coins sound...anyway, i din ask her cos i was waiting for wenyi to collect from someone...she went off for a distance and then stopped and started digging her bag. then i walked off with wenyi when she colected finish...suddenly i heard the sound of running feet and turned around, it was the girl...she ran after me just to donate some money she found in her bag...at that time i was really surprised and touched, cos its people like her that make the world a better place ;p

ok, so that was about all at toa payoh...oh wait, there was this super AP guy that wenyi approached...he was like: "no money! but you want i can gie you my bread! [he was eating some breadtalk bread]" wenyi shrugged and turned away...but i was tired and pissed and so i said:" fine! i will take your bread if you can stuff it ib the can" lol;p then i turned away...he was like:" can! here!" he peeled off this small crumb and held it out. i rolled my eyes and walked away...so totally ap...hmph...haha ok, i was ap too lah, but he provoked me...*shrugs and smile*

we went back to bugis at 5, but continued our collection there [could only end earliest by 6]...there i met with AN IDIOT WHO SCOLDED ME!!! GRRH! he was "talking" to this girl at the busstop when i went up to him to ask for donations...then i turned around and saw the girl's face [her back was facing me when i first approached them]my first thought was like: GG!!! she was crying...then the guy started scolding me...he went like: "what the hell are you doing?!?! cant u see that people are quarrellin? people quarrellin still come ask for money! stupid or what! ...." i was shocked...so i was like "sorry" den i hurried away. all the while he was still scolding me... whew, close one...

so that was about all...gave the can and signed out at 6...watched and waited while some of my classmates ate their dinner at bugis foodcourt and then went home to have dinner...my legs were totally screaming by then and i had a blister at the back of my right leg...totally exhausting...

ok dinner time, gtg bb

Anyway for those who dont love jack sparrows as much as i do, u should still go watch coz the showis amazing. the sound and visual effects are fantastic...esp the last battle scene (shall not elaborate coz it will spoil the show if i do)...anyway, i think the ending was quite funny too;p (not the will turner part coz that's sad, but the map part;p) the show lasted from 11.10am till around 2.10pm...

at 6.10pm, we went out again to dinner with the relatives on my mom's side for an early celebration of father's day at this chinese restaurant "Made in China" at Haw Par Villa (spelt correctly?) anyway the food there was quite cool...though the restaurant itself was quite cool. there's was this whole corridor round the side and back of the restaurant which showcased lots of chinese artifacts...which were all real...anyway, very interesting. Many of the dishes there were like award-winning...and the food were all artistically arranged, very appealing;p so there i realised my guy cousin had two earholes in his left ear...haha, i was like o.O coz the last time i saw him he only had 1...haha

2007-06-05T03:33:00.000-07:00

yoz again...grrhhh my gastric is acting up again as i type... :( but for the sake of my faithful readers, i shall perservere ;p haha...
today i went to sch for chem extra lessons [which was cancelled in the end due to mr tan's father being warded in the hospital ;(] on the mrt train, i saw this crazy man... he was dressed in this wrinkled shirt, three-quarters and slippers... couldnt determine his race...but he appeared to be in his late fifties to sixties... anyway, he was on the train since pasir ris and appeared calm and quiet till around kallang. Then he stood up. i thought he was leaving the train. instead, he walked to the next door and started talking in this loud voice to a caucasian guy who was holding crutches. The caucasian guy did not shrink away from the man but instead smiled and nodded at whatever the man said. He even held out his hands and shook the man's hand despite the man's odour.
When I saw this scene, i was really surprised by the actions of the caucasian guy. Any other person would have just walked away in fear or disgust. I really respected the guy for his compassion for those more unfortunate than us. Although the caucasian guy had crutches and had support on both legs [i believed he is suffering from polio], he spared a thought for someone most of society would shun. Some might say that this people are out of their mind and should not be entertained lest they do something evil in their madness, however i feel that people who have mental illnesses are not necessarily crazy and most are generally harmless... I think that as we developed as a society, we should not lose our compassion and care for those around us. Sparing a feeling or even a smile for someone not as able as us, we are not wasting our time with pity. Instead we are giving them our care so that these people are not left behind when our society progresses. You may feel that these people are of no use to society anymore, but they too are somebody's parents, or siblings, or spouses, or children. They deserve the society's help and concern. I believe that the caucasian man's action is something that we should all look up to and learn from ;p

Haha, i know people would be surprise by this post of mine, but i really feel strongly about this issue ;p so here's some food for thought before you go to sleep tonight. ;p

off to dinner now ;p BYE!

2007-06-02T07:00:00.000-07:00

just watched wang zi bian qing wa de special...so touching...sigh, those who love romance clips should go look at this...feel like crying...;p
e guy is seriously so nice to the girl [when he lost his memory that is]...it's like he treats the girl as the most important person in his life and his goal is to make her really happy...haha, ok, shall stop mushing about the show or it wouldnt be fun for those who wanna go watch...n it will be boring non-romantic peeps (haha, no offence)...
just wanna tell people out there to really treasure who you love coz they r the ones who are willing to stay with you through thick and thin... if you treat your love ones badly, you really should get your a** kicked...;p

one last note [since i m currently being very philosophical] i really encourage people to love themselves coz if you dont, who will...This may soung cliche, but it's true...EVERY ONE NEEDS LOVE ;p anyway, ciao to everyone and sweet dreams ;p

2007-06-02T00:41:00.000-07:00

hello again readers... today, i m blogging this as a favour for a friend:

You know sometimes when you say something, but don't really mean it, coz its just for fun n all? Well i have this friend who did something like that. She said that she loves this "item", but actually she says it for the shock value, initially, and then later, for fun. But then, somebody who doesnt know her well got hold of this info and thought that she meant it as a fact. Therefore, this someone thinks that they actually got something in common and tries to hook up with her. This is really troubling the girl so much that i shall not reveal her name. However, this girl only has passion for a special someone who had his birthday yesterday, the 1st of June. So Mr Unlucky Someone, i m afraid that you are too late and pls, forgive her. Thank You. ;p

ok, now to my stuff... went to zhuo fei's house on wed afternoon to help her take care of her mei mei n to do somw hw as well. Haha, when i reached there, her mei mei was sleeping soundly, so we proceeded to start with our hw. Not long later, her mei mei woke up with a scream. Literally. She started wailing and screaming and poor zhuo fei had to carry her and walk around the house several times before she stopped. Wailing that is, coz she took much longer to stop crying. Anyway, when i walked into the room, the little girl [who's called zhuo ling btw] saw me, and to my horror, started crying loudly again. (OMG, i never knew i had that effect on babies. ;p) Anyway, i quickly rushed out of the room.
When, zhuo ling finally calmed then, she came out of the room to look at me. Luckily for me, i had bought some sweets to bribe the child with ;p so i gave her the sweets and she ran away to eat it in secrecy... [haha, according to zhuo fei, her sis is quite erm... possessive) Then she warmed up to me and keep pulling me around the house to play with her... so we played the whole afternoon away... (sob, i did not managed to do my hw)...Haha ;p
END OF STORY!!!

U probably didnt know i had that wonderful effect on children did you? Lol...

Okok, i know it was quite boring, but, i m just not a good storyteller ok? It was quite interesting actually...

Three days of choir camp over ler...which means my three last days of choir pracs are over...feel kinda glad and sad at the same time...coz i would really miss the choir peeps ;p Anyway, the new songs are totally rockin' [ARGH, MS THAM, Y U CHOOSE SO NICE SONGS ONLY BEFORE WE SEC 4S LEAVE... haha jk, but the songs r really nice]

TO ALL CHOIR PEEPS: WORK HARD AND MAKE US PROUD!!!

hello...sorry my readers, for not blogging so long...
anyway, just a quick update...
as most of u should know by now, 4A won the girls soccer interclass against 4G...WOOHOO!!! haha, anyway (no offence to 4G members), we were really on form that day, that is, eunice, woei xin n esp, serene was on form...haha, the ball was kept in the upfield most of the time...
but the times when the ball came into our half, i was really scared stiff, because yi chen's kick is like...BAM! Lol, it was really hard and fast, almost like a bullet, really scary...Anyway,i was not really on form during the whole match, so yeah, it wasn't really my glory... ;p The whole interclass i barely touched the ball (during matches) 10 times..;p

Oh, btw, i quite happy with my results but shall not type it here because it's not a good judgement of my standard... My standard is actually lower... ;p However, i can say that i did put in hard work to get those results... ;p

anyway, choir interviews r gonna be next week...muahahaha, so fun!!! watch out, here;'s comes e MOTHER of all questions... ok jk... to interviewees: dun panic, be urself ;p

aiyah, duno what to write lah, shall type an anonymous poem by someone whom i love, so give me ur comments!!!
here goes:

Sadness rings in your voice,
for what you yearn for but lost.
Heartbreak, Heartpain.
you did so much, in vain.

My heart aches for you,
for the years you have aged.
Tears on your cheeks cool with time,
as you shut the cold world away.

How i yearn to grasp your anguish
to throw it a million miles away
and guide you towards
the rainbow after the rain.

Be brave, young child,
years you have yet to go.
So learn to stand tall like the towering oak,
fight through those obstacles in the way.

One day you will wake to find,
all those fights were for nought.
'cause what you ever needed in life
is those that were beside you at the start.

You have tried to hard to please all.,
but in doing so forgotten one.
that unfortunate, forgotten one,
is none other than you yourself.

Stop before it's too late,
vye away from this path of self destruction.
Just be true to you and your heart,
true friends will like you as you are.

Haha, quite cool hor... wonder how u guys feel after reading this poem from this amateur poet.
share ur feelings, n see whether its the same as mine... haha ;p though doesnt really sound like a poem after you read it out...

2007-04-28T03:13:00.000-07:00

second post for e day since i m so bored...went lookin round ppl's blog...
saw this:
qiaoyue: penguin~ haha! whee aren't you happy HE isn't smsing you anymore? hahah. anyways you've been a really really great friend and senior these years. enjoyed the trips back with you too!! and we'd always disturb jingqi and her ilu haha.
haha, thx lydia, u r a great fren too...
was very sad when i heard e reults of the SYF at vch:

On that faithful day:
Down e list we went...
Silver. Bronze.
A sense of dread washed over my heart...
It beat with the life of a war drum...
Clasping my hands in prayer,
(though i was a disbeliever)
i hope against all hope that we would not get THAT
(or worse)...
When the name was called,
my knuckles were gripped white...
Could we have what we dearly wanted?
Oh God!
the moment came swishing down on us like a samurai's blade...
then it descended in one felling swoop...
the announcement laythere like a rotting log.
No one, NO ONE
dare prod it with a feet-long pole.
The world stopped in unison.
For that instance...
That one insanely instant...
Disbelief laced through us like a cutting knife...
THAT faithful instance,
hit us like a hugh angry wave...
Then the tear glands started flowing...
There was no choice...
THIS was the ONLY way out...
the only wy to release the pain inside.
I flashed back to the weeks of hard work we had had...
Now i knew it all wasnt enough...

The aftermath:
We had been hit
but up we stand...
like brave soldiers we stood by our stand...
the final result could in no way undermine...
the efforts, the sweat
n the whole long process.
We had lost but in a way,
gained much more than we could ever imagine.
this bonding experience served to prove
that friendship could withstand e long hard test of failure.
though some may call it failure
i choose to call it by another name.
This name also starts with a 'F'
but this 'f' stood instead for FORGE.

This is a "tribute" to all the syf choir members. What we had learnt in the process is by no means little and should not be belittled. So we WILL stand up again n fight for e next n e next n e next!
P.S. Haha, this is not a poem lah, i cant write a poem for nuts... ;p

THREE CHEERS FOR CHOIR!!!

2007-04-28T01:46:00.000-07:00

ok whatever, enough venting...spammed her blog with cutting comments liao, she sure hate me even more from now onwards...but i couldnt help it, it got to me... i also have my limits...cross them n u gotta face the consequences...

2007-03-27T06:02:00.000-07:00

whoo! So far, all sec 4s got into SYF... wah, heard that auditions for the rest were super scary...haha. Anyway, e sec 4s were all at e leadership workshop when they were having auditions, so we r all safe so far... but e SYF choir is like so small...haha, so its quite bad...
had my chi test today, die liao lol...was on yan2 jiang3 ci2...totally din understand e qn...
ANYWAY...quite sick of ppl calling me "xi**4**n3**4" in class...all because of the stupid "sex maniac" Growl! Makes my skin crawl thinking of him...Had nightmares when i heard what he said to practically half the class from someone...
AHHHHH! My thighs hurt like siao, cos of the training for standing broadjump thing yesterday for PE...wah, all those steps just killed me...n for god knows wat reasons, my lower back hurts too...i feel like an old lady lah...
Off to watch youtube liao...bb ;p

2007-03-22T06:38:00.000-07:00

haiz, so sian got a geog test on plate tectonics tmr...no idea why my geog teacher wants to test last yr topic out of the blue... got back my bio n maths test today, did ok for bio, not that well for maths (expected...) Anyway, took a look at jing qi's blog n saw e scandalous things she posted 'bout out trip home yesterday...So here's my side of the story...Firstly, there's nothing between me n Kennard, so stop sayin things, NJQ! lol she just loves teasing me 'bout him cos we waltzed (for those laggers out there, it was for the choir concert)... Anyway, here's payback time ;p Jing Qi danced with...RUI XIAN for the concert, so it's like a thousand times funnier lah...
Back to the trip home yesterday, me n Kat were going home n Kennard joined us lar, not like it was a date can... And all of us are frens, so no special relationships lah...haha...though the trip home was damn funny can... Kat n her obsession with a certain jogger clothed in a grey singlet and yellow shorts+ a wonderful "manly" odour... ;p haha, she's damn funny when she goes all out to make fun of someone...Anyway, Kat, HE'S MINE...lol cos i saw him first :D

These few days has functioned quite well despite the presence of a ardent and disillusioned "admirer" and a hate "mail" from a certain "well-loved" member of choir. ;p
Yes, hate mail, just to clarify for those who have chanced across this tidbit, ask my side of the story before believing it as the saying goes "innocent before proven guilty"...Anyway, many of you may be curious to what i might do to these ardent "admirer" and TQY-hater...Well, actually nothing... surprised? Why should you be? those who know me must know that i am actually a kind and forgiving person... [okok jk, read on before u go puking ur guts out at my arrogance] I am actually just super lazy and thus don't plan to "take revenge" as this require a certain amt of energy... ;p

Anyway, watched finish hana kimi n i think it's quite nice [ok, very, superduper nice...Esp XIU YI... AHHHH! lol, luv him, think he's super funny], however, the ending was kinda dumb [though they said there may be a second season, so hoping for it ;p]... Haha, think the love story was kinda cute, appeared abit like mu lan [which is one of my fav disney cartoons of all time!] de storyline... But what i love was the expressions on their faces, had me rolling on the floor with laughter...

Haiz, ok, time to go muggin' doubt can make it though, wish me luck ppl ;p

2007-03-21T04:55:00.000-07:00

I HATE HYPOCRITES!!!
wah, cowards are disgusting... they go spitting on ur shadow n all that but dun dare show u any cheek in ur face... they blast u all over the place, frm behind ur back to the worldwide web, anywhere except to u.
Man, if u hate someone so much, tell them, instead of badmouthing them, plunging a knife in their backs and twisting it deep...
to all out there, u gotta check urselves first before calling on someone for their mistakes. Make that a thorough checkup, most of the time, if u r e only one hating that person, it has something to do with u. Surprise! -.-
Haiz, whatever...shouldn't waste my brain cells on people like them...Hating is so taxing ;p Plus, wana know something, i dun really hate anyway
It's true, i dun hate anyone...just dislike rather strongly.
no, not sayin i m open n all that, just lazy...;p hatin someone really takes up lots of energy u noe...
log off for now, my bro wana use e com ;p

2007-03-14T03:47:00.000-07:00

so tired...
spent e whole day reformatting my entire com 'cause it keeps hanging...
had to save every single document under the sun and then upload them again after reformatting the computer...sigh ;(
anyway, know what it is like talking to someone stubborn, hard-headed and totally ignorant? totally exhausting, unfruitful and highly fustrating. Now i know what they mean by "A little knowledge is the most dangerous"...
BTW, i really dislike "know-it-all"s, they think they r better by ppl 'cause they got a little knowledge, like who give a hoot what they thinks lah!
ok, dinnertime, signing off... ;p

2007-03-13T07:07:00.000-07:00
