The Life of a Girl

In a Grove... and stats!

2012-01-11T21:00:00.002+08:00

Lessons have been pretty interesting these days, I wonder why...

Let's take History for example. My teacher has given us something similar to a short story, "In a Grove" by Ryunosuke Akutagawa. It is an interesting story. A samurai's corpse is found. There are three suspects for this murder: Masago (his wife), Tajomaru (a bandit) and himself (he might have committed suicide). Testimonies have been collected from the woodcutter who found the body, a travelling buddhist, a policeman who arrested Tajomaru, Tajomaru, Masago and Takehiko (the samurai). What is certain is that Masago was raped by Tajomaru; what differs is what happened afterwards and who killed Takehiko. You can read the story here.

Most of my classmates felt that it was Masago who killed Takehiko. They argued that perhaps both men loved her and wanted to protect the fact that she killed Takehiko. Others felt claimed he committed suicide to 'save face' as it was better than dying in the hands of a mere woman. Somehow, I have a feeling that my history class is very wary of woman, especially beautiful ones. HAHA.

We are supposed to determine who is the murderer and write an essay on it. This is very interesting, and different from the normal lessons that we have done. After searching it up, I found out that it was never the author's intention to have a real murderer. What he was trying to prove was that our initial guess of the murderer is shaped by our moral inclinations and biased judgements. As humans, it is very hard to see the REAL truth. This story serves to prove that. What one character says is always refuted by another. It is almost impossible to decided on a real murdered based on their testimonies.

After reading that, I was dumbstruck. How do people ever come up with such novel methods to prove a certain point? I was very impressed by this. However, I felt stuck at the same time. How am I ever going to decide who is the real culprit? This is when the true objective of the project hit me. I was supposed to use my INVESTIGATIVE and ANALYTICAL SKILLS to help me argue for one of the character. The main point wasn't which character I chose. The objective was to see how I made use of the testimonies by the non-parties and general knowledge to prove that the character that I have chosen is the murderer.

Perhaps I will put up my essay the next time, if I remember!

Anyway, I was interested and went to find out the statistics for my blog. Here are some:

Pageviews all time: 4,741

Pageviews last month: 153

Audience: Singapore (3,332), USA (726) - Wow, who reads my blog in the US?!, Russia (71) - I guess they google translate or something???, etc.

Post with highest views: tag (click here) Apparently someone quoted from my blog and it appeared in the straits times! HAHA. I still cannot find the newspaper article... Maybe I should do some searching now...
[updated] I FOUND THE NEWS HAHAHA!!! It's here. It was featured on The New Paper, Thursday, December 03, 2009.

"But netizen Sue Qin, writing on her blog, felt that some of the rules in the Chua household (featured on the programme) are overly-harsh, citing the ones forbidding sleepovers, boy-girl relationships and another rule which stipulates that the computer be in the living room so the parents can see what sites the kids are visiting.

She added, however, that most of the rules – like the ones against skipping school, smoking and alcohol – are “kinda expected”.

She felt that Singapore is conservative because we are made up of races which have their own strict traditions about raising children.

“While too much control is not good, too little control is also not good,” she wrote."

AHAHA, I ACTUALLY FEEL QUITE PROUD OF MYSELF. How old was I? 13? HEHE ;D

And I am going to end my blog post now! The most recent book that I've read is by Lauren Oliver. It's called Delirium. I'm giving it 4/5 stars! Overall, the story is really good, except for some sappy romantic parts which makes the book lose some of its adventurous 'feel'.

School... again!

2012-01-04T21:19:00.000+08:00

Today is the second day of school, when lessons officially start.

Initially, the idea of lessons really put me off there. However, today was better than what I expected it to be. I thought that the lessons would be really drawn out and exhausting because it lasted until 4.15pm today. However, time passed surprisingly quickly, except for the first 2 hours which felt like forever then.

My new chinese teacher is a female teacher called Ms Sau. She taught me CME before. I was quite disappointed when she did not recognise me when she named the students whom she knew, but then, I must admit I didn't make much of an impression when she taught me the other time. Chinese lesson was quite interesting. It was about this female author called Zhang Ai Mei. I think that's the name. Apparently, she's a prodigy, a genius. How envious! We were told her life story which was kind of sad and pitiful. She wrote so much books on love, but her life was far from blissful. However, I think the scars as well as the joys of her love inspired her to write such great short stories and novels. I wonder if I can ever be like that as well.

Literature - Romeo and Juliet. A classic. Although I don't mind reading Romeo and Juliet, I would really like it if the school could arrange for us to study a modern play rather than a Shakespearean one. I recently watched this film "Closer" which is based on a play of the same name. It is a modern play written in 1997. The concept was pretty simple, but the way it was played out was really cool and interesting. It is about 4 people, with 2 couples who commit adultery. The play is supposed to highlight the degrading nature of love and marriage in the modern times. Really deep...

Oh yeah, I recently read a news that the new salary proposal for the Singapore government is out. Now, the president's salary will be lower than that of the prime minister, which is kind of weird as the president is thought to be the 'head of the state'. Hmm... Though I guess I welcome the new salary change (it is now lower). I mean, it means less tax money being given to them? Haha. Next, they should deal with the rising cost of... everything. I mean, I have no idea why but, if our SG dollar is getting stronger, then shouldn't the items here be sold at a lower price?? I don't really get the idea of inflation but I think I will probably learn about it in financial literary lessons next week :)) Looking forward to it!

I finally sent an email saying that I want to redraw from AEP. The teacher asked to meet me, Dion and Beatriz because we all want to quit. Ms Gao will be there (@_@). I am seriously scared that Ms Gao will interrogate us like those officers in the police station or something!

Anyway, I celebrated Christmas and my cousin, Irene's birthday recently!

Christmas was at my auntie's house. I cooked Aglio Olio!! :DD Everything was finished eventually; I was so happy!!! Previously, some of the chilli padi's juice got onto my fingers so my finger was burning all the way to my cousin's house. Though, my efforts were definitely paid off seeing how they all enjoyed the spaghetti! :) We also played several games like charades. We had a gift exchange session. My present was for Iris. It was posters of Super Junior since she loves a member in it. My present was from Ivy. It was a lovely brown bag! My friend, Shermaine, said it looked nice when I brought it to the 3K class gathering.

Irene's birthday was fun too! We watched Running Man, which was this variety show where some celebrities played a game like Police and Thief. It was very funny! My mom and I chose a dress for Irene as her present :))

There was a 3k class gathering as well to celebrate Christmas.

I planned a treasure hunt with Dion, Beatriz, Trevor and Randy initially. However, it was all for naught when some envelopes when missing and no one wanted to play D: I bought a bracelet for Shermaine and I got a photo frame from Jing Ying. Thanks! I also played bridge with Jalyn, Beatriz, Chun San, Miss Lim and Jaime. There was this really funny moment when Chun San lost and Miss Lim (who was trying to make noises to hint to him while sitting beside him watching him play) asked him why he played some cards the way he did. He answered, "I play by instinct." And then there was this funny laughing moment because we all know that you can't rely on instinct in a bridge game. Haha.

It's now 9.17pm. I should prepare for school tomorrow and go to sleep :))

I now realised that my minimum sleep hour has to be 8 hours or the exhaustion will accumulate and by Friday, I would be very worn out.

I shall do my NYAA during the weekends. Hopefully, I can complete skills and service by then!

New Beginnings

2011-12-21T20:03:00.002+08:00

Every year is a new year...

Upon looking back, I realised that last year passed by very quickly. Everything was a blur, I guess. New classmates, new subjects. When year 2012 is over, I will be in Senior High. Aah, I feel nostalgic just thinking about it (laughs).

This holiday is perhaps, in some way, the start of a new beginning for me. I have a new laptop! :) For me, who is quite engaged with the internet in more ways than one (like now), this means quite a lot to me. HP Pavilion g4 :)

I am looking forward to Christmas! I am going to have a family gathering with my maternal relatives, with potluck and such. My year 2 class is planning to organise a dinner gathering as well. Hopefully, the organising goes well.

Next year... Truthfully speaking, I am not especially anticipating or looking forward to it. Because,
a) It means the start of school, which can be dreadfully boring and draining.
b) I am going to take my O level Higher Chinese paper. I am totally NOT looking forward to this, though I am to the next two years if I manage to pass it!
c) A WHOLE YEAR, before the next year end holidays!!!
d) Less time for me to... well, not do anything productive.
e) Less time to SLEEP - the balm that nourishes your soul, yadah yadah yadah~

AND, I have not decided if I should quit AEP or not, which is actually what I have just realised while typing this blog post! This is bad! I should hurry and decide; but I have a feeling that either way, I am still going to continue with AEP =_=

The first blog post in many months *claps*
Be willing to wait for the next one for a long long time! (sniggers)

P.S. I am in the top 25% :)

the end

2011-10-27T20:27:00.002+08:00

The end of the school term is nearing; the last day is tomorrow. I guess looking back on this year, it was rather a year of insecurities, new-found friendship, opening up, frustrations, disappointments, relief and lastly, happiness.

The year had started with its fair share of problems - I was in a new class with new people whom I either saw, but did not knew, or did not knew existed in school before (how anti-social I am). I was feeling quite out-of-place, I guess. I did confide some of these feelings with my friend, and was surprised to find out that hey, I am not the only one! I guess I thought that I was the only one who would feel this way, but I was relieved to know that I was not alone.

New friendships were forged between my new classmates, almost strangers before, and I. This kind of feeling is kind of exhilarating. Knowing that I can still make friends after being with the same class for 2 years is kind of reassuring in a way, I guess. :)

This year was also a year where I had gone through some roller-coaster ride I guess. One of which was the MPP journey. I must confess that not everything is as perfect as it seems. I guess this happens because of our lack of willingness to give our best for something - we want something, but are not willing to work hard for it. Because of my team members' lack of enthusiasm and initiative, I got really frustrated and upset. I was fuming inside because I was astounded to their degree of 'unwillingness'. Because of that, I typed an email (while trying to be as polite as possible, but I believe I failed) expressing my disappointment with their attitude. What happened, was I guess really just a confession of my feelings as well as theirs. I think that after seeing things from my perspective, they are able to understand the tough spot I am in as the group leader. And I also believe that by winning the best Gov debate team award, it was a stamp of approval of us, and a definite boost to our confidence. I know that they were able to do it, and this was proof of it. :)

I was also facing some insecurities, not just with my class, but with my CCA as well. After all, I had transferred, thus making my transition a bit 'weird'. The fact that I am not spectacular or proficient in my chinese adds on to the awkwardness. After hearing some things that I shouldn't, and did not want to, I felt really sad and angry. At myself as well as others. A million thoughts had ran through my head and I wondered, if it was not due to the single mistake of who-knows-who, how different might my secondary school life have turned out? I have since accepted the truth of it. Since it's already done, then it is done. What I am just really looking forward to now, is to just pass this phase and look forward to the next. And I promise that I will definitely get things the way I want in the future.

I would like to say that academic-wise, I am not doing too badly. My wish would be to get into the top 5% of my level. I would see if that comes true tomorrow. *excited* Although, I do feel that I could have done better. I have worked hard, of course. But perhaps if I had worked harder, I would have been better. This is what I always regret, but then it is the driving force for me as well.

Oh look! And there is a whole reflection from my about me whole year! My teachers would have been proud of me. :)

Just one more year to senior high!

Exams

2011-09-24T16:07:00.000+08:00

1 more week to exams...

I really feel quite frustrated, because I still don't feel like exams are coming...
But, I am really looking forward to the holidays!!! 2 months of it :D *happy*

I should really get into my exam mood more quickly... like now.

Okay, it's totally not working.

Books

2011-09-08T21:24:00.000+08:00

The school celebrated Teacher's Day cum Mid-Autumn festival. The concert was really good, I must say! Hope that every concert can be like that too :)

I went to the Borders sale with Iris and my auntie. There were so many books! But the content was a little disappointing as most of them were cliche romances. I bought two books - Rupture and The Senator's Wife. Rupture looks quite good I think. I only bought the Senator's Wife because it was on A HUGE discount, and because it is supposed to be a national bestseller! x)

We then went for the John Little sale at the next expo hall! THERE WERE SO MANY STUFF!!!! And they were on discount~!! I think that although we went to expo for Borders, we bought more stuff from John Little instead, heehee ;P

I still have quite a lot of homework. Mostly project work.
I still have AEP. I think that I am going to quit it next year. It is giving me unnecessary stress, and it ruins my interest in art. D:

A few manga I just found that I really really like:
Hana ni Arashi
Kamisama Hajimemashita
Karakuri Odette

I love the style of drawing in all of them - they are kind of similar :))

Trophy :)

2011-08-27T23:31:00.000+08:00

The last day of the MPP programme went unexpectedly well!

We started with some presentations at the MOE Centre at Grange Road.
The journey there was absolutely horrible because of the blisters and ache in our feet that Grace and I got while walking there in court shoes. Also, wearing such formal wear made me feel slightly emabarrassed >

After wearing stockings, wearing court shoes became better. Only that my shoes became looser -.-\\. THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A PROBLEM.

Wearing the school blazer felt really cool too! Luckily, we were not the only ones wearing the blazer! :))

The FUN part came when it was the debates. I was REALLY REALLY nervous sitting there, waiting for my turn! It felt like FOREVER!!!! ;D But, when it finally came to my turn, all my nervousness went away, surprisingly! I was really proud of Grace, Yuan Wen and Felix, who did the debates with me! WE WERE AWESOME!

I was even more pleased when a Hwa Chong teacher, whose school we were debating against, praised us on our debating skills!! :DDD SO COOL! ;)

WE WON BEST GOVERNMENT TEAM FOR DEBATES! :)
Overall, even though we thought that the programme was bothersome, looking back, I find that I had enjoyed it!

One person whom I guess I really have to thank would be Grace. Without her, we wouldn't have even participated in this programme. When we had to rush our proposal that was to be sent to the GE Branch, I was hesitating then about backing out, and not even submitting the proposal at all! She was the one who pushed me and the others to give it a try. She was also one of the more hardworking people on the team, so I really want to thank her :))

Thanks also to all my group members: Grace, Yuan Wen, Felix and Mingyu.
Also to my teachers, and our expert-mentors!

This was a really memorable experience :)

Common tests

2011-08-15T21:37:00.000+08:00

Currently, my common tests are not bad, judging from what I have done... at least I hope so... HAHA.
I am most worried for my history and language arts paper. Macbeth is a total killer, although I think that the question seemed relatively easy this time round, but they added so many points for us to cover, so I am worried that I have not gotten the points across.
I took the History paper today and out of the millions of questions that they could have tested, they tested one area that I did not study much on - Rise of Japan I was totally dumbfounded and just tried to sound as if I did my homework already. They also tested stuff in the total opposite manner - I was much more confident for impacts of colonialism on Vietnam, and rise of nationalism of Indonesia. But, the history test turned out to be the total opposite -.-
And then, there's AEP too... Oh, that reminds me! I should send the email to the teacher so that she can comment on it P: I hope it goes well...

I wish that the holidays would come sooner!!!! :DD

More time.

2011-08-12T18:35:00.000+08:00

The past few days and next week will be filled with common tests. Seriously, I have no idea why is it called a common test, just to make it sound nicer? I would have liked it so much better if they just called it a mid-year exam; that way, I will be able to go back home earlier. :))

I just need more time, I think. It is what everyone needs too. I know that it is my fault that I don't have the time, but truthfully, I am a very lazy person. (Reminds me of "The Lazy Song" -.-) It is true that while I will be able to focus on whatever I am doing, I need to actually start doing it first! Without the motivation, or even excitement to start on a piece of work, I wouldn't feel like it at all. I wonder where all that energy of mine went...

Of course, there is AEP. I am starting to contemplate quitting, although it is true that it will prove useful should I need an additional A to pull up my grades, AEP is not exactly a 'sustainable' choice, unless I am planning to head into the arts department for my work, etc, which is not what I am exactly planning. Also, I could use the time for AEP to study (if I actually do, that is). Recently, the assignment given to us proved to be really time-consuming. We are supposed to design fashion wardrobes. I thought, "Quite easy." I was proven wrong! The teacher even wants us to choose a freaking THEME. We would need to research on the theme's history, culture, etc and come up with some clothings that are inspired by that. Truthfully speaking, my theme isn't exactly that sophisticated. And, there isn't much 'history', or 'culture' to talk about. I was just planning to use Katy Perry as my 'theme', and a few of her songs as the background story behind my creations. Compared to what the teacher mentioned, my idea looks so... superficial(?). Though I really do love Katy Perry :DD The other idea I had was weddings... But is not a very NEW idea. I shall go consult the teacher and decide later. (sigh)

Recently, I keep getting sarcastic remarks from people around me, though I think that they are trying to praise me indirectly, the way they do it is getting to me. I have someone who tells me that I don't have to study because I will still be able to score even if I don't, which totally pisses me off, because I DO STUDY, and because the tone in which she said it was annoying. It is as if she worked hard for it, and I didn't. Another person told me that my art was good, while the tone in which she said it sounded like jealousy. It was something like, "So good, you are good at everything." I was like, WHAT. You all make it sound so easy, but actually it is not. So please, stop sounding jealous. And if whoever whom I'm talking about didn't do it intentionally, then I am sorry for mistaking you.
And I wonder if I actually do the above sometimes... I should really stop sounding so hypocritical, if I do.

I think that I am feeling... happier (?) in my class now...
I've got to talk to so much more people, as compared to last time when I was with the same few people. I really hope that our class is gonna stay really bonded in the coming year :))

Grr. Maybe I should change the link of my blog.
Just so that when I complain, no one really knows. HAHA.

Mooooooooot

2011-08-03T22:39:00.000+08:00

So, I am in this programme called MPP.

Shan't divulge too much about this programme in case....

Anyway, our group was selected for the debates.
Even though I am GENUINELY happy about the fact that we got selected, and the fact that we might have to chance to win some trophy (HEEHEE), I am still UPSET over the fact that we have to attend a briefing after school this Friday just for it!

Of ALL days, why choose Friday?!
It is the day when I finally have NO CCA. (Grr.)

But still, I am silently happy that the "higher-ups" seem to be very interested in our topic, apparently.
Because it is something NEW :D

HEEHEE.

I can't help but feel... a little happy :))

--
But then, I was really quite depressed about something that happened on my way home. I shall not say too much about it, but only that I was chatting with this girl.

She was going to tell me something, and was supposedly 'hesitating', but I know that she was really just DYING to tell me the truth/rumour.
When she told me about 'it', it was just utter shock that came to me.
It was because she was so HYPOCRITICAL.
I mean, if you know that the person is not going to like what you are saying, or is going to be hurt because of that, then why even say it in the first place?
And HESITATING before that, while rattling away after you said it?!
WTH. Seriously.

Hypocrites.

Try harder

2011-07-19T22:26:00.002+08:00

Even when life fails you, you must always try harder.

Why?

Simply because you don't have a choice.

That must be the easiest decision that Life has ever made for you.
So try your best at it.
And try harder when it doesn't work.

Simple

2011-07-15T20:22:00.000+08:00

I have decided to go back to the kind of classic templates that Blogger have been providing.

Apparently, I have decided that simple is nice :)

Somehow, I have suddenly found out that life isn't that perfect, like what I thought it was when I was young.
I thought that I would always be able to do everything, that I would always be the best. Being the best gave me a sense of fulfillment. Now, I'm finding it harder to feel satisfied with what I have achieved.

I guess that's what I have learnt after getting into a secondary school with a whole other lot of smart people - that you cannot always be the best.

Mistakes are made and somethings are lost. I start to wonder what would have happened if I had done something differently? Maybe I should stop trying so hard?

But something in my heart always tell me, I shouldn't lower my standards. :)

One Day

2011-07-11T21:52:00.000+08:00

"One Day" by David Nicholls is really just an extraordinary book to me, even though my friends have been denying it and telling me it is boring. Partially because of the fact that I haven't been reading much, I find this book making me fall in love with reading all over again. I am now on a desperate search of more books to make me feel like how "One Day" did.
The picture shown (<) is actually the poster for its movie of the same name. The photograph just looks awesome, doesn't it?
The story is really quite intriguing as it starts off with a scene of Emma and Dexter being in bed together. You expect them to get together or, at least do something, but then, it abruptly fast-forwards to the year after that. This is one of the irritating and disrupting parts of this book. Though the style is unique and I have to admit that it is essential if you were to carry the story over twenty years, it is just frustrating at times when you want to know about what happens next, not next next! However, I got used to the rhythm of the story after a while. The story started out as being quite boring. Things only started to get heated up after Dexter gets drunk and writes a letter confessing his love for Emma. BUT he loses the letter. That's basically what this whole book is all about - lost opportunities. It makes "One Day" a very nostalgic read; hence, if you are one who are really into happy endings or chick-flick similar stories, this book is not for you.
Throughout the whole book, I was desperately praying and just waiting for the two of them to get together and marry. But, I had to settle for lost opportunities that made the fact that they are meant for each other even more obvious! When they finally do decide to, you feel a wave of relief and exhilaration at the same time, as well as happiness for the two friends, and lovers. That's how close I felt I was to them.
The ending was totally just as how some lives are meant to be - sad. I wouldn't want to say what happens in the end, but I guess the message that "One Day" was trying to put across was to always treasure what's in front of you right now.

HCI AVC 2011

2011-06-25T15:13:00.000+08:00

I have to admit, I totally wasn't looking forward to the HCI AVC 2011 at all.
I even tried to pull out of it a few days before it, but I gave in to the guilt-ridden feeling that I had when I found out that the school had paid for me. -.-
I went for the first day, and I got lost in the huge campus. I went to the college side, which was the WRONG side. I was starting to feel so screwed. My group was kind of quiet at first, with our facil (younger than me!) trying to act enthusiastic. He gave us lollipops :DD
We learnt some stuff about sound system, which was definitely NOT what I came for. In the end, I started to regret it, and had the mind to pon the next day. I was SO nice to discuss with my team members, who tried to ask me not to. haha. I think that we kinda bonded over the "pon or not to pon" incident. I have to admit that I was quite lucky in the sense that my team members were really nice and that we really kind of 'clicked'. Other groups were still quite 'dead'.
So, I decided to only pon the early afternoon. Then, I would go in the afternoon, because thats when the finale rehearsal + finale performance will be. I just wanted to skip the 'learning' part, haha.
In the end when I went, I still had to take part in some simulation stuff, which was unexpectedly FUN. Especially the one where we had to negotiate with GL people, who apparently paid 1million to rent the drama centra, HAHA.
And, our group won in the end :)) HEHEHE. :)))
Really had great fun with everyone! Jiaxin, Huizhen, Daryl, Zhenghan, Haoyu (facil)! :))

Now, I am currently trying to load City Hunter ep 9 and 10. I havent watched them yet D:

School is going to reopen, with plenty of new subjects, which I'd prefer not to have! But oh well, NO MORE BP, HAHA XP

I'm now looking forward to the next holiday already. T_T

X-Men

2011-06-17T16:26:00.000+08:00

I haven't been blogging for a while. I think the blog is going to die soon, and I am making not much effort to keep it alive, haha!

For the first time, I went to watch a movie by myself on Tuesday.
Surprisingly, the experience was quite pleasant. Because I am usually the one who gets what the movie is about, I don't really feel any urge to ask someone for an explanation after the movie ends.
It is also quite nice to sit alone, and just enjoy the movie, without sudden interruptions at the critical parts.
Overall, x-men did not disappoint me. For a movie with about 80% of the cast being unknown to me, it did pretty well. There were also a few touching moments, like when Xavier's spine got hit by the bullet. It was so unexpected because I did not know that the person who caused his injury was Erik.
I was also looking forward to the relationship between Xavier, Raven and Frost. But it appears that Frost has not yet liked Xavier yet in this movie, so oh well.

The june holidays are pretty hectic, totally not what I expected at all.
There are plenty of homework to finish, with the most dreadful project of all - IDMI. And it has to be handed up on the first day of school, how thoughtful of the teachers. If they were expecting us to get it all done by the holidays, they got it terrible wrong.

After spending one week at my auntie's house, I officially got hooked onto a few korean dramas!
City hunter and Miss Ripley. :))
Both are really good dramas! I am currently watching City Hunter. Looks like I will have to carry it over to when the school term starts. :(

a weird 2K outing

2011-04-24T22:05:00.000+08:00

We had a very small 2K outing on good friday, which was kinda fail i would say, haha.

Jin Heok suggested it. And I didnt take the trouble to sms him so I only found out in the morning when I woke at 9+ that we were supposed to meet at 8.30am. HAHAH. Nicole and I decided, fine, let's go then lor. And turns out there were only Felix Xuhua and Jin Heok there. HAHA FAIL. Nicole and I met with them and Pamela. We went around and slacked around. I played train conductor on Nicole's phone :))
Then Suting called and we randomly made a decision to go to Valen's hse -.- Now that I think about it, it was totally random and crazy. HAHA =_= Nicole and Felix left then :( Pamela, Xuhua and I were then outside Valen's house acting like a bunch of thieves cuz Valen was sleeping and we couldn't get in!!! -.- Finally, Pamela managed to get his mother to get us some badminton rackets :D
We then went down and TRIED to play badminton. But then halfway through it was too hot, so we started playing Monopoly Deal in the end. :D haha! and then Jin Heok started entertaining himself. LOL.
Then it became very boring, so Jin heok, being the restless him, wanted to go to E!hub. Suting was like "no!", and then he left. HAHA. THIS IS A VERY BIASED ACCT. HAHA! So we started teasing suting!!! xD
We then went to Valen's house and played Scrabble ._. We then slackedddd. For a very long time. Finally, spaghetti was ready! I was so hungry by then D: It was nice though :)

sometimes, we just have to break down.

Recently

2011-04-10T18:13:00.000+08:00

I have been busy with some class t-shirt stuff recently. Arranging designs, shifting icons. I hope that the tee will turn out great! :)

Another thing that I am quite worried about is my literature play I guess. I haven't really came up with a title yet. It needs to be good though, in order to interest the person reading it. Haha.

My tests have been not bad so far. I got unexpectedly high for my literature! :) *happy* But my history and chinese is not really good. My chinese has deteriorated i guess.

I've had a few stuff too for MPP recently which keeps clashing with stuff that makes me irritated. First it clashes with my history test, then it clashes with my HSK test! HMPH.
My meeting with my expert mentor was quite funny, i guess. We were all waiting for him at this really really high class cafe. We were really hungry so we ordered some food. Just after the food came, he arrived. He looked quite young, which was VERY unexpectedly. Because he was a public prosecutor (woah), we had this image of him being very 'strict' and perhaps, older. With some prosecutor aura around him. And throughout the whole thing, it was mostly me and Grace speaking to him. (Mingyu was just eating and being REALLY silent, which was surprising. Yuan Wen too! -.-\\ I was hoping they would speak SOMETHING) We were also quite shy to eat in front of him. So when he said that we could eat, we all heaved a sigh of relief because it was really quite torturing to stare at food and not be able to eat it! haha. Then afterwards he left. We stayed on for awhile more to roughly summarise what he just said and divide roles. Ms Kheng went to foot the bill. But she came back and told us something shocking, the expert mentor just footed the bill for ALL of us. AND WE DIDNT KNOW OR THANK HIM AT ALL!!! We were all like stunned. Then we were commenting about how he was really surprising nice! haha!
We had a bill writing workshop yesterday. IT WAS REALLY BORING. haha! It was still quite fun at first, but it just became quite draggy afterwards. But we did take home SOME learning points. some only. heh. Afterwards, we went to Ajisen Ramen and ate lunch there. Just right next to our table, there was an adult guy who coincidentally started talking about buying flats or property. He said not to buy Potong Pasir's properties because it is not a PAP ward, so the upgrades are very slow and old there. HAHAHA. That was exactly what our topic was about, and it was just after we had a MPP programme. IT WAS REALLY TOO MUCH OF A COINCIDENCE!!!

I recently had lunch with some Kellyxians. Felt quite nice. Even though nothing really special happened, it just felt quite nice because it has been so long since I had lunch/dinner with them :)) Miss them!

I am currently downloading some songs to my iPod touch. :) my hp has run out of memory space, so I'm now gonna listen to the ipod touch. TOO BAD I CANT DOWNLOAD GAMES. D:

Anyway, we recently celebrated my dad's birthday, even though it hasnt arrived yet! haha!
So, lemme just say here first, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD! :D

Humanities Camp

2011-03-27T14:40:00.000+08:00

Havent been blogging for awhile, just been too lazy. :p

Humanities Camp was not bad.
I was paired with Nicole to facil our group 7, KICKASS. I came up with the name. Not bad eh?
The introduction and beginning was really quite boring. I was quite nervous as I faced a bunch of kids who were staring at me and expecting me to get something done. We played some games, which were... lame? I managed to remember everyone's name after some failed attempts. :D We were at this really low moment where the energy level sort of went down down down... We were trying to figure out the group name. We tried getting something related to Humanities, but it didnt work. So we were running out of ideas, then we, i mean I, decided to call ourselves Kickass! Then the cheer, was kinda, me doing it also. -.- But then when we started cheering, I could see that there were these few girls who were really spirited and loud at cheering. So I started to think, hey maybe this group is not so dead afterall! :)
And, the other groups got our name wrongly. Hello~??? It's not kiss ass, its KICKASS!

Overall, we didnt really do much. We were just... facilitating.
We didnt get to go to the workshops with them, we didnt get to go to the museum with them either. so most of the time was just slacking in the meeting room (shhhh. XP)
I have to admit that initially, I didnt really feel like I was part of the whole committee. There was this two groups between the girls. The guides, and the 2F (i think that was the class?) And obviously, I didnt fit in either. So, I was kinda teetering on both sides, switching between the both. But then as the days went by, it started to get better. I got to know more people, got to talk more to them, and yeah, it wasnt so bad :D

Radin Mas was a total.. failure??? LOL. My group somehow didnt have the luck and they didnt get to interview a lot of people. They kept getting brushed off by people. It seemed really contradictory to what I had in mind. It started raining halfway through. D:
Then on the way back, some guy smsed Mr Chin in various languages and finally smsed him "Sorry, I'm Muthu. I got the wrong number." It was really quite funny seeing Mr Chin trying to nab 'Muthu'.

At the end of it, group 7 had to draw the map of their ideal city.
We were really short of time and the drawing group was really slowwwww.
I was getting kinda pissed i guess. oops, sorry ><
So we were just chionging at the end, and chionging more. Haha.
But in the end, we did managed to short of 'finish' it enough to present it to the judges.
The group was really good at presenting. I was really quite surprised myself. Everyone was getting really restless as we were the last group, but then suddenly, Aisyah and Shinyi came up and started presenting really dramatically! I was like, 'WOAH'. But really GREAT JOB PEOPLE! :D :D
We came in fourth in the end. Not the top, but unexpected and pleasant surprise nevertheless! :)

The river cruise was the most epic i guess.
The facils were screaming yam seng under every bridge and waving to random people passing by. I was wondering if the bridge would vibrate too much because of our screaming and collapse! haha.

The reflections time was finally the time when we would get to eat our... DORITOES!
Nicole and I have been holding on to the doritoes forever and waiting for a good time for the group to eat it. Finally, we managed to do it! We were supposed to play blow wind blow and write the reflections but apparently the idea wasnt so good so we just resorted to passing the cards around, as well as the doritoes. x)

Overall, the Humanities Camp was really nice and something that I would look back upon fondly :))
--

Had MPP on Wednesday. I was already slightly sick then. The parliament didnt look as old inside as it did on the outside. The guide made the tour really interesting, with a few jokes along the way. I think that this is one of the best tours i've had, that was the least boring, despite it being about the parliament! x)
The debate was really nerve-wrecking. But I think that I did quite okay :D I spoke twice! :D :D Happy happy~ And the RGS girls werent as fierce as they were said to be. There were a few good speakers as well in the schools and I was really quite impressed with a few of their points that they have came up with. :) Parliament wasnt as boring as I thought it would be :D

Was sick on Thursday. It was really horrible. I really felt like skipping school but then there was a physics test and I didnt want to take make-ups which was so troublesome. Throughout the whole day, my eyes were watering non-stop. It felt like I had an endless amount of tears. I bet that during the physics test, the relief teacher was staring at me and thinking "Is the test really that hard that she has to start crying?". haha! I went back after the test. I thought that I could just leave the school like that, but apparently, I had to go to the GO and get some leave form. I was really frustrated and seriously, felt like REALLY crying then. Because I was already feeling really sick and terrible, with a headache. And I had to still go to the GO and get some stupid leave form?! GRRR. On the way home on 158, I slept almost immediately and did not wake up for the rest of the journey until I reached serangoon. That was the best sleep I've ever had in my life.

Watched a few movies at home while I was recovering.
Repo Men, The Guardians: Owls of Ga'Hoole, Red, The Town.

- Repo Men was quite good, though really really gory. With a few cutting and getting body parts.... yikes. With a few top nude scenes... i think girls can watch it without really cringing, but guys? no no. And the ending was really unexpected and nostalgic.
- Guardians was quite cliche, but still good enough to keep you watching till the end. the owlets are really cute, and the name Eglantine just rocks.
- Red was good as well. Though the story does feel a bit slow in the beginning. But the plot is good enough to keep you watching. The guys does seem abit too old for the girl though. But the action is good, just enough and not too much of it with a good amount of humour added into it. I wouldnt mind watching it a second time.
- I had high expectations for The Town. It met half of it i guess? Story is quite cliche given the amount of action and gun fighting shows i've seen. I mean, robbing the banks - ocean eleven??? Ending wasnt exactly nice. And the Town had little performance from Blake Lively, whom I thought would have more. Story was really slow at the beginning as well. There were like three robberies, so I was guessing and literally waiting impatiently for the one that would finally be the last one where everyone dies or succeeds.

I am totally not looking forward to school, especially after I've had like 4 days of complete rest. Nope, not really wanting to get my butt off to study at mountbatten of all places. xP

briefing

2011-03-12T09:37:00.000+08:00

hi :)

I havent been blogging for a while. There's been a lot of assignments and homework lately :(

Finally, the one week holiday is here. But for Japan, it was a disaster.

They've been hit by a 8.9 magnitude earthquake and many people are probably dying.
I wish them all the best and hopefully, they would be able to save as many people as possible from such a disaster.

Here i am at the humanities camp briefing :)
I wanna have brunch, hehe.
Looking forward to the camp. Hope to have lots of fun :)

getting tired of stuff

2011-02-20T00:50:00.001+08:00

School's been okay these days. Nothing big happening.
But I do wish that I get to bond more with my other classmates I guess.

My IDMI is in a fix now too.
We can't seem to think of any ideas.

Next week is filled with tests.
Thanks to Mr Ken to postponed our Lit test!!! :D

Sigh... school seems never-ending and tiring.
Somehow, I wish that I have half a million dollars so that I can quit school, start up a business, and then start earning bucks to support myself.
And maybe, be like that Facebook guy. ;)

CNY

2011-02-11T23:01:00.001+08:00

Chinese New Year has been pretty much okay, with a few occasional hiccups here and there though basically okay :D

The eve of CNY was spent with half day at school. There were all really slack lessons, which made the day even better. Afterwards, I met up with some kellyxians to eat lunch. We were just wasting time outside the library until we decided where to go. Soon, we made our way to NEX. It was basically a lot of fun. We were just wandering with empty stomachs and then we just randomly decided to eat at Mad Jack. There were a lot of problems with the orders!! I was really just trying to keep a straight face. The food and cards helped :D :D After eating, we wandered around somemore. Pam said that she wanted to go to Skypark, so up we went. Halfway through, I found a shorter route. And apparently we left Pamela with Xuhua gleefully..... FORGETTING THAT ALVIN WAS WITH THEM. hahaha!!! We were all like 'shit, alvin sure kill us.' LOL. We took another way and wanted to see the DOGSSSS, but the staff were washing the cages so we couldnt see them D: Finally, we made our way to the skypark and met pamela there. Got scolded by the security saying that the playground was only for children ages 5 to 12. LOLOLOLOLOL. we didnt even realised that! haha! Afterwards, we slacked a while and then went back home :)

There was a reunion dinner with my paternal relatives that night. The dinner was awesome as usual with a huge spread cooked by the maid. :)
We played Blackjack with chips after wards. I was initially losing a lot until I had the least money among the rest. However, once I had no more small change and I bet a 50, I won - A BLACKJACK! hahah! so I got twice in returns!!!! I actually got back more than my original value.
After that, I just kept winning quite moderately :) There was once when I got blackjack FOUR TIMES IN A ROW. :D :D :D awesome right.
we played poker after that. was quite tired around that time.
I guess I bonded more with my cousins :)

--
Day 1 of CNY
Went to maternal grandma's house. Ate a very delicious lunch there and chatted and the cousins for a while.
They got kind of hooked on the whole eyeliner thing, so they were going around putting eyeliner on everyone -.- My dress has a spot there so I was kinda upset at first. But I managed to make it go away :D :D
Then went to my paternal grandma's house. Played bridge with my cousins. Then a really really cute 2 / 3 year old cousin boy came jumping into the room and interrupted our game. He was superbly cute! And his pants were falling off.
He was trying to 'magic' away the cards and we just took some while he was playing mahjong with them. Slowly, he realised they were gone, and he was genuinely surprised i think.
Before they left, my uncle asked the cute cousin (Darren i think his name was) whom he thought was the prettiest sister. He pointed to my cousin who was wearing a really long and elegant dress. When asked why, he replied, "SEXY." HAHAHA. imagine! out of all the answers, a three year old boy replies 'SEXY'. lolololololol!!!
Afterwards, we went home and ate dinner and watched movie marathon :D

--
Day 2 of CNY
My family went to an uncle's bungalow. WOWOW. big o.o
It felt kind of boring there as there wasnt really anyone to talk to and I was just reading my own book, you know.
They do have a lot of goodies though! :D :D
When we were leaving, I saw some DHS scouts performing lion dance at a bungalow for some people. They initially looked like professional performers, with the truck and everything! It was a funny surprise and I saw Mr Chin! haha!
Made our way to my maternal grandma's house. Ate dinner there and played cards with my cousins.
I lost money this time round D: We played with real coins!!!
I think that I'm better off playing chips!

--
Day 3 of CNY
Went to Katong Shopping Centre and karaoke-d at TeoHeng! :D
There were too many people I think so there was not enough time for everybody to finish their songs. But I think that I sang quite a lot. Mainly because I know a lot of english songs, heh.
Then went to my auntie's house where we had dinner at a hawker centre-like place.
We then went to her place. We played Blackjack and Monopoly Deal.
We tried to play the sparklers but it didnt work!!!! :( :(
Was very reluctant to go back home D:

--
Day 4 of CNY was mainly consisted of slacking at home and finishing up of homeworks, hehe. x)

--
Day 5 of CNY was the day we had the celebration in DHS.
I think that I bonded a lot with 3K during the fiesta thingy I think. It was really quite fun, especially lao-ing the yusheng! It was really very messy. But in the end, no one wanted to eat it, haha!
There was a karaoke thingy being played all the while. With a lot of Zhou Jie Lun's songs, LOL!

After that, I met up kellyxians again.
There were quite little people today. We ended up buying from KFC and eating at Macs, haha!
We made our way to Xuhua's house. Initially we had like 10 plus people, but then they all slowly left while on the way to Xuhua's house. D:<
At xuhua's house, I was quite amazed by his humongous terrapin.
I learnt how to play mahjong :D
And we played monopoly deal and also blackjack.
The nerf guns were shooting ammos around once in a while too.
Overall, it was just like a 'playing in Xuhua's house' kind of gathering. But it was fun too! :D
--

Finally finished my CNY post.
I had physics test today and I personally thought that I did well for my MCQ part, but then apparently Ms Lim says no, so I still hoping for the best.
I was supposed to present LA Montage today too, but then all the groups took a lot of time. So we will present next week. Grr and we rushed last night. But not bad. We managed to finish our montage in 2 days! :D
Haiz. I shall pon tomorrow's history lecture. Really tired right now. Good night :)

looking forward

2011-02-01T21:49:00.000+08:00

I haven't been posting for a while...
I guess I am still in the midst of getting used to school life after all that slacking and waking up late during the school holidays. Those were the times, man.
But I think that 3K is slightly better now I guess :) I mean, we are bonding more... but we are still sticking to our same cliques. And basically most of the cliques are based on sitting arrangements. So what I guess is that when our sitting arrangement changes, we would get closer :D

CNY deco was really quite fail I guess, in terms of cooperation and helping out. Apparently, the CNY deco comm was SUPPOSED to be in charge of it, but then they just left it as it is. And in the end, mostly Beatriz, Huiyi, Elaine and those few ended up helping. And we are not even in the CNY comm, lol -.-
Schoolwork lately has been quite good. With projects done, I think that the homework have become more manageable. :)
But then there is the LA Montage. I have really no idea why but I think that my group is really quite ineffective. We already had an idea for the theme Happiness, and all that we had to do were to take pictures according to the already written ideas. But somehow, we always manage to sidetrack and digress. And I would just be standing there feeling just really bored and irritated. Somehow I get the feeling that Jonit feels that too? But I'm not sure. ._. So now I think that the whole project would just be really screwed up. I planned on bringing my camera today so that I can get this done quickly and over with. BUT I FORGOT. zzz. So in the end, we spent a lot of time just... wasting time, yeah. -.- Thats what I PERSONALLY feel. I mean, if this was a solo project, I would be able to do it faster, and easier.
That's why I kinda of hate group projects.

Went to rivervale plaza tonight to buy some CNY stuff.
There were ALOT of people just 'milling around'(<-learnt this through compre test :P). It was really quite crazy especially at the 'hot spots'. My dad said that it was because the past few days were always raining, so everyone took the opportunity to come out tonight since the weather was great.
We got to borrow discs. It was really just a lucky and happy surprise that I saw 'The Social Network' sitting there on the shelf. I was ecstatic as I really wanted to catch that show :D There were many other shows as well. There's the Doctor Parnasses' Magical Emporium, which I borrowed :)
While waiting at the NTUC, there was a woman who asked me to help her look after her trolley. My dad hurriedly said that he couldnt be sure if he would be able to look after because we were leaving soon. The woman said okay, then went off. My mum soon came and we needed to go, but the woman wasnt back yet. And I just felt really guilty that I left the woman's trolley there.
This reminded me of the countless times where I felt like I should have done something, but I didn't. Like just random strangers there who seemed like they needed the help. But I was always in a rush to go somewhere whenever I see them, so there is always this enormous guilt just building up inside of me. I always have a soft spot for elderly people, especially those who have this 'kind' look on their face. :(

Sigh... whatever.
I am looking forward to Chinese New Year though! :D
And just to wish y'all: 新年快乐，恭喜发财！

to me: GWS

2011-01-13T21:11:00.000+08:00

ahhhh. I was feeling really terrible at around 4am in the morning. I touched my forehead and it was freaking hot! The next 3 hours while I tried to sleep was excruciating. I brushed my teeth, thinking that it was still okay, but I really just felt terribly tired, with my whole body aching. Sensing something wrong, I went to take my temperature and voila! I have a fever.
I nearly just slept through the whole morning and afternoon, only waking up to eat my med. I slept until around 4 plus. o.o I still feel sleepy, yawn.
Even though I get to skip school, I feel really really bad. Because I am the Treasurer (thanks for the votes (: ), and yet I cant attend school to collect money etc, and help out with the class comm. *sobs* I was actually planning on just resting for one day, but the doctor gave me MC for 2 days, so I was like, okay... :(
and also, homework! I am the type who cant stand lagging behind people for hmwk, heh.
and just when I was getting to know my class better tooooo! >.<
And the class name!!! Hmm, I really want to change it actually, to make it more COOOLLL, you know. haha! I am having a hard time pronouncing Kissel.

haiz, I should just enjoy my 2 days of rest and stop worrying, neh?

finally learnt how to cherish

2011-01-05T18:06:00.001+08:00

Orientation and school finally started, despite my reluctance.

On Tuesday, I went to my new class 3K. And there was no one there. Except one guy, just sitting there. It was expected as I had met Krystal outside on the way, and apparently it had already been her 2nd time around the level. Everyone was still hanging out with the same friends, chatting outside the classes. It seemed kind of ironic, and awkward for me. I wandered around for awhile. And soon, kellyxians started to gather in the 3L class, since it was empty. I finally saw how relieved I feel to see someone familiar, and whom I can talk to.

Gathering at the hall, was another lonely business. Since I was the only girl kellyxian, I didnt know anyone. I sat through the flag raising ceremony rather quietly, nearly dozing off. Going back to class, I hoped that I can make new friends.

Luckily, a girl asked if she could sit next to me. If not, I would be just sitting alone i think. She was Joelle. Yeah, the OTHER Joelle. haha. We only chatted occasionally. Just getting to know each other. In front was Shuwen and Hannah. I recognized Hannah from level camp.

Next, we got to the ice breakers. Frankly, I think that the ice breakers was really quite useless. Though it did help me remember some people's names. But not get to friend them. I lost to Dion, I think this is how her name is spelt, and had to take an M&M choc. It was red. While waiting for our turn to carry out our 'punishment', I chatted with Karon -again i'm not sure about name spelling-, which was mostly quite fun I guess. Then Beatriz and Levi came, and we chatted some more. In the end, I didnt get to carry out the punishment. But I ate the choc. :)

Then went back to class. And my spirits started to feel a bit better. We needed to choose a class name. I personally wanted Kiss N Tell, after all those suggestions. In the end, Kissel got chosen. -.-

We proceeded to the hall. It was the briefing for the sandcastle building. 3K was really quite disorganized, as we were supposed to split into 3 groups. But the facils didnt tell us, so technically, it was their fault. -_- During the discussion, it was just a really cold atmosphere. With people fiddling with their hands, and people talking amongst themselves. And no ideas were coming out, which was making things harder for the supposed leader. Then, I tried to contribute some ideas, after some 'persuasion'/'nudging' from Huiyi. :) Then finally, things started getting a little better. We finally got an idea for one sculpture. Though there's supposed to be 2 ._.

Afterwards was lunch. I met up with Yuan Wen and we went back up to class then went to canteen. Bought from a new Western stall. The food is nice, but expensive. :( Met up with Nicolew, Pamela, Suting and Genevieve. Nicole started complaining, to which Yuan Wen and I agreed with and added onto. :P

Gathered at the auditiorium for the telematch briefing. Sat beside Beatriz and Suichun.

The telematch was really quite fun, and really bonded most of us i guess.

First was the potato game, which we won. I went for both rounds. And even though it was hot, it felt fun stealing potatoes and ripping lives off people. heh. I had to apologize to a few people for ripping their lives though. >.<

Next was the answer or squeeze/ chair game. I was the one answering. Most of the questions were lame, or the answers were wrong. I really pity the people up there, with which 6 of them are guys. Poor things. And it was funny to see Yohanes being hugged by 2 guys. o.O

Third was the table soccer game. It was fun, but our class suffered a terrible loss. 3-0? Anyway, our class guys didnt really helped much, and they werent really sporty, which obviously didnt help the game. But the class that we played with was really really funny, which helped lifted the spirits up. I laughed a lot. I got rope burn though, ouch.

Fourth was captain's ball. We played against A and N. We won the first match, which was quite easy I guess. But all the boys from that classes started playing in the second match, including facils, so it made the whole thing quite chaotic and reeeaaallyyy competitive. And Valen was the defender -.- so obviously it made things harder for my class. And he snatch so much that Levi got hurt. D: So we lost in the end. :(

We skipped one game. Though most of the classes did as well. Overall it was really fun. If the sun werent so hot. xP

Gathered at the hall for debrief. Afterwards, we gathered back with our old class to collect our orientation tees. I was genuinely happy and super relieved that I could finally gather back with 2K friends. And to finally get to talk so easily! Everyone was just ecstatic :)

Met up with 2K for dinner after being dismissed. We camped outside the MRL, waiting for others.

I think that half of all that I have talked that day must have been with 2K people. Just sitting that with the wind blowing and talking was simply fantastic.

Argued about where to go for dinner and finally, decided to go Suntec City.

Ate at Aston's. Played cards while eating with Nicoleg, Xuhua and Bryan. Xuhua and Bryan kept cheating at the end, which was irritating. But the first few games were really quite fun :D
And to quote from Bryan to Yohanes, "Dude, you are supposed to eat the whole steak. Not swallow it and vomit. Are you a cow?"

And had to settle some things with Grace about the cabbing problem. Seriously, I really cannot stand people who just crash in on something and expect to be given priority, even though they are the extras.

--
Wednesday. Today.
Cabbed with Grace, Jingwen, Yuping to East Coast Park.

Queuing in classes didnt really help as I wasnt really close with the people in my class. But after a loooonnnng time, I got into the conversation between Karon, Jaime and Shermaine.

We took off our bags and shoes and set off for the beach. The beach simply reminded me of 2K class outings, where most (or maybe all) were held at beaches.

Building the sculptures were really the hard part. There was A LOT of arguing, with nothing CONSTRUCTIVE being done. I was trying really hard to make them see my point of view/ suggestion, but I gave up after a while. In the end, we changed the whole design. -.-//

But in the end, we managed to finish all the three sculptures. :D
Played with the water and took lots of pictures.

I think I kind of get what this sand sculpture building is all about. There is a lot of labour involved, so teamwork and cooperation is really needed. Just like the case of us, when we were arguing. Everyone has different ways and perceptions about how we should build the sculpture. And sometimes, the design just doesnt allow us to build it, using sand. So planning and discussion is essential too.

We got to eat ice cream too after the whole sand caste building ended :D

Met up with 2K people to eat lunch. Again, argument about where to eat. I decided to just sit and wait for them to come to a conclusion. Parkway Parade was the conclusion.

Nicole, most of the guys, and I went in a different direction from Krystal, Gen, Pamela, Yuan Wen, Valen, Xuhua. In the end, Nicole and us reached first.

The guys except Xuhua and Valen ended up eating at Yoshinoya, while the rest of us ate at Ajisen Ramen. -.- Somehow, we always end up like this. ._.

Played bridge there while eating too. I won all rounds except 1. While Nicole won all. Pamela won some. Yuan Wen won none. haha! Suting and I also took some indecent/purposely-scandalous photos of Yuan Wen and Valen.

After that, we went to Koi and bought drinks. Then, we went back home. :)

--
I finally realised how much I miss and love my class through this class change.
After 2 years, we are finally going to be separated. I cant bear it, and dont want it. :(
12 girls and 14 boys. It's the perfect combination. <3

--
I am not looking forward to studying tomorrow. sigh.
And I will be having AEP on Thurdays, which means I will miss shufa.
Hmm, wondering if I should quit since I wont get the CCA hours anyway. And I really feel like joining Photography club, that is if their activities are not on Thursdays. :)

new year, SIGH

2011-01-02T15:02:00.000+08:00

I went to the Botanic Gardens with my family and relatives yesterday. :)
It was all great fun, except the occasional showers and exhaustion. xD
Took lots of pictures, which was expected with the colourful flowers everywhere!
I think that we didnt take enough jump shots though D:
MONOPOLY DEAL WAS FUN THOUGH :D cuz i won twice, haha.
The big buffet at my house was good too :) :)
And we tried to watch the Jap version of 'Dark Water', i failed. ;P

Before that, I went to watch Gulliver's Travels with my family.
It was okay, quite a typical story actually with some humour added in it using some modern elements.

I am still trying to figure out if I am gonna like this year... hmph.
It's not working.

FUN

2010-12-30T21:23:00.000+08:00

Today was fun :)
Went to play badminton with Patricia, Yuping, Grace, Felix and Xuhua at Anchorvale CC.
The only thing pissing about this day was the fact that I paid extra for the hotdog because of miscommunication. =_= LOL. And the meal was supposed to be VERY cheap!!! grr.
I want to play badminton everyday like this!!!! even though my legs are aching. heh.

The fact that school is finally going to start just dawned on me.
I have another 3 days left!
SADDDDDD.
And we will be going to different classes, which is even more frustrating i guess, because I don't know anyone very well in my new class. so it's going to be reallllyyyyy awkward...
Well, everything must come to an end someday.

Currently really hoping that there will be a new year gathering at leonard's house or something :)
Watching 'Mary Stayed Out All Night' while watching 'Breakout' on the tv at the same time. x)

Genting

2010-12-28T13:09:00.001+08:00

Just came back from Genting Highlands on Saturday.
Genting was real fun, but it wasnt as cold as I imagine it would be. haha.

Day 1:
It mostly consisted of driving all the way to Genting from Singapore. Woke up terrible early and made our way to Golden Mile Shopping Centre.
Met up with the others and waited for the bus. Our bus number is totally nice - 8668. :D
Cool right! xP
The bus ride was really agonizing i guess, because you cant really sleep properly on the chair. But at least it can be adjusted up or down x) And I kept sleeping, and waking. Just when I finally doze off to a really deep sleep, I wake up again because my head fell down -.- irritating, hmph.
We reached Genting at around 2pm. We drove for about 7 hours!!! o_o
Finally, we tried checking into our hotel. But there was SOOO many people, that we had to wait very long. So we went to some makan place and ate, slacked and walked around First World Plaza.
Approx 4pm, we finally got to check in. We were staying in First World Plaza. :)
We argued about where to sleep, because there was one queen size bed. haha!
Slacked and then went down to Kenny Rogers to eat. We had a lot of problems with the service. haiz.
Went back and slept after walking around :)

Day 2:
I woke up around 2 times that night. Once when I thought I heard tapping on the door. Turns out it was the fan. -.- Second time was when Irene came at around 6am. :( I was really quite annoyed because I kept waking up, haha.
Woke up at around 7am? Not sure.
Then went to Marybrown for breakfast.
I ordered fish burger and frankly, it wasnt really good. D:
Then, we went to buy tickets and we met this woman who is apparently a tour guide and can get 10% discount if we buy with her. lol. so we just bought them along with her :)
We then made our way to the Outdoor theme park.
All my other cousins except Iris, WJ and I went to sit on Spaceshot. I was really scared and didnt dare to sit on it, haha.
Iris and I went to sit on Cockscrew instead. I was quite excited as it was my first time sitting on it. It was a roller coaster with downs and upside downs. Iris was really quite scared as she didnt expect so many upside downs. In the end, we didnt even feel that we were going upside down when we were on the ride! We could only feel our bodies moving to the left, that's all. -.- haha! but still quite a fun ride! :D
Afterwards, we went to sit on Flying Dragon, an all-time favourite. We were the last riders as the staff wanted to have a maintenance check on Flying Dragon. So lucky of us! Sitting on the last ride felt cool :D
Then we went Boating. It seemed quite boring, but it was quite fun actually. And tiring. Because we had to pedal and pedal.
Afterwards we went to Flying Chair i think. We were supposed to have lunch, but then somehow we ended there. haha.
We saw this guy throw up after sitting on the ride. urgh. My brother backed out of the ride after seeing that, haha! xD
Flying Chair was still as fun. Technically it is called Spinner, Flying Chair was just something we named it ourselves, haha! But the ride would be terribly dizzy if you didnt close your eyes. :p
After that, we planned to eat lunch, but then we saw that Cyclone would be open in another 15 min and the queue was really quite short. So we just queued up while eating Ice-creams and hotdogs. :)
Somehow, Cyclone seemed much more scary in my memories. But it felt quite fun this time round, guess I am braver, haha! And our pictures looked hilarious because we were screaming. Ivy's face was epic! haha!
Then, we went to eat at Star Hotel I think? Not sure.
We came back in the theme park and since there was nothing much left to ride, we rode the Haunted Adventure.
I was still having some scary expectations at first, but then the ride was thoroughly disappointing. There was NOTHING inside at all! Just some paintings on the walls, not even statues! LOL!
Afterwards, since the Thunder Rain Mine Train ride wasn't open yet, all of us went back.
Then, around 6pm, Iris and I went back to ride the Mine Train. The Mine Train's seatbelt was really just loose. The ride was really fast and the best part was when we suddenly pummelled down after a sharp turn. So we didnt have any preparation, haha!
Then went back to the hotel and ate KFC while watching You're Beautiful :D

Day 3:
This day was really quite a free day i guess.
Woke up VERY early also, just to eat the free buffet breakfast at Resorts World Genting.
Then wandered around for a while. It was basically quite boring then.
Finally, those in the Casino came out. We then went shopping. Bought nail polish and hairband.
Afterwards, we went to Ripley's Believe It Or Not!. It was really quite interesting. :) I think the most amazing was the one where we stepped into this 'bridge' and the wall around it is in a circle and its spinning. So when you step inside, it feels like the bridge is spinning, instead of the wallpaper. :D :D It was really quite amazing!
Afterwards, Iris and I went back to the hotel after packing food to eat.
Slacked in the hotel and painted our nails, HAHAHA.
The other cousins came in soon after, with Irene and Janice carrying their potraits. It doesnt really look like them though. And it costs a lot! lucky we didnt do it o.o
Then the others went out except Ivy and I. I was quite tired so I slept. hehe.
That one hour of sleep really was nice~~
Then we made our way to the Mushroom Farm which was surprisingly NEAR. I thought it would be quite far away. hmph. I wanted to spend more time in the minivan. ><
Ate dinner there and took pictures!!
Saw some poor doggies. :(
Then went back to the hotel and exchanged presents!
I received mine from Ina. It's a cool black Tee with the pattern that forms a dog :) Still dunno if it glows in the dark though o.o Thanks Ina! :D
Then played with fake moustaches and took lots of unglam pictures! haha!
Great fun! :D
Watched You're Beautiful.
Afterwards, we went out somemore. Walked around, took pictures in front of the gigantic Christmas tree. Then ate KFC after looking for places to sit desperately. We were getting terribly annoyed by the irritating smokers!
Finally, most of us went back except Iris and Irene. I went back and slept. :)

Day 4:
It was the last day :( sadddddd.
Woke up at 10am, the latest for the past 4 days >.<
Ate cup noodles and watched the korean music awards of 2008, so old!
Then packed up and went down to lobby to check out. Afterwards, went eating and shopping with some cousins and my aunt. :)
Finally took the bus back. The number this time is 2332. HAHAH.
I tried to sneak in chewing gum on the way back, but failed! grrrr.
All of mine got thrown away zzzzzzz Dx

I sure miss Genting!!! boohoo!! :(
Rewatched You're Beautiful, because of those broadcasts in Malaysia. haha :)

Haiz I dont really miss school that much. :'(

All those memories,

Locked in my heart.

I will keep them safely,

Even after we part.

school's starting, ugh

2010-12-16T16:55:00.000+08:00

I went back to school today to do some wen yi camp stuff. we had to come up with an identity etc. It was really just quite awkward in the beginning with no one talking. But then I think people started to warm up so it became better i guess :)

I reserved a book called "My Story" which is a combination of 3 books, 'A Child Called 'It'', 'My Name is Dave' and something else. It's about this boy who goes through abuse by his mother. He eventually stands up against it, etc. I saw it in Popular and I read a few paragraphs. It seemed quite interesting and the paragraphs are quite concise. The story seems to move fast, which is good because in most cases, biographies are really really slow.
I am quite looking forward to it :D

My cousin is going to treat all the other cousins to a movie treat this Sunday. I am quite excited about it and yet, abit reluctant i guess. Because most of the cousins have like a 5 year gap from me, which is REALLY huge. So we arent really that close. My brother is lucky and has a cousin 1 year younger so he still has a companion, while I am just stuck 'in-between'. But well, I am still going to enjoy the movie!
It's called Yogi Bear. And the premiere is supposed to be 23 dec, so we arent really sure if it's showing in The Cathay at sunday. But the relatives said yes, so i guess it must be :)

I really dread going back to school. I bought some remaining books needed and am just reminded of how fast everything is going to be.
I mean, we are all going to be secondary 3 students very soon.
The guys are gonna wear long pants. Is that some kind of reminder that we are all growing up??
And we are changing classes, which is always very difficult.
The same few introductions every year.
We would have to do it like 10 times because every subject teacher would probably ask for it. "Please stand up and say your name, CCA and something about yourself."
New subjects. Tougher subjects. More complex subjects.
I wanna go back to the days when expectations werent so high, and my achievements seeming so low.
Can't we go back?

dinos

2010-12-13T23:27:00.001+08:00

Watched Dinosaurs Live on 11/12/10. :) Nice date :D

When I got to the Indoor Stadium, I was still quite awed and excited even though I've been there before. I dont really remember what was the layout etc, so it was still kinda 'new' for me even though I've been there already.
Went through the entrance and it was very crowded, which creates a chill down my spine. It was as if this was a really big matter ><
Got to our seats and I was faced with the stage with this big 'mouth' with fangs around it, which was kinda cool. And the lights was dimmed so I got even more excited. I sat in my seat and waited another 40 plus minute with much difficulty and finally, the show started.
It was quite boring at the starting as only small dinosaurs came out.
But it finally got more exciting as more dinosaurs came out. Then finally the dinosaur with long necks came out, haha! :D I prefer the smaller one compared to the mother, it seemed more proportionate x)
The last dinosaur to come out and wow us was obviously the T-rex :) It was quite awesome as the roar was quite real o.o

Overall, I think the show is a real eye-opener. But I think that the tickets were a bit pricey, especially when there were only about 15 dinosaurs. And there was too much talking by the guy, compared to the time where the dinosaurs paraded. But still, the experience was really cool and I enjoyed it very much.
After all, the dinosaurs are almost life-sized :)

Oh and I forgot to mention that we saw PM Lee there! It was a total surprise and my dad was the first to notice Mrs Lee. Just after my dad decided to take my brother to the toilet, PM Lee soon walked down the steps right next to us. LOL. Bet my father was disappointed since he seems so excited when he saw PM Lee.
It was quite funny as my father said, "MM Lee in the beginning of the year, PM Lee at the end of the year. So lucky!" HAHAH. :D

And my dad went to buy the "Back To the Future" Trilogy disc recently but it didnt work on our disc player because of some region code problem. So he went to exchange them for some disc :D
Inception, Salt, Sorcerer's Apprentice and Jason Derulo's album.
Personally, I would rather some other album than Jason Derulo's. But whatever.
I watched Inception AGAIN, this time with subtitles thank god. And I realised that my concept about it was mostly correct in the beginning such that I was able to understand most of the show and enjoy it. :) yay! And I found out why was Fischer with Mal in the limbo state. It was because when you go into limbo, you would be in the same dream as the last person whom you were trapped with, and that would be Mal.
And yes, I checked and Cobb's daughter was wearing different shoes. It was black in the memories and white in the 'present/end'. I waited til the end of credits and there was NOTHING. lol. i find myself a bit stupid for being so obsessed. haha :)

There was supposed to be like an outing tomorrow for badminton, but it was cancelled because some people backed out.
I am totally upset. Because it seems like it always ends up like this. Somehow I would be one of the last few people who end up still hoping that the outing will still take place.
I mean, if you have said that you would go, then please keep your end of the promise. And not just tell me that you are backing out on the night just before the day of the event.
Then smses start scurrying between handphones and I have to reply 2-3 smses at one time. Which is not easy for a slow typer like me -.-
And I start being frustrated.
I imagine. I told my parents that I was going to be going out to play with my friends happily after being cooped up at home feeling very horrible.
Then the next day, I sms them saying it's cancelled.
I myself find that it makes no sense.
Come on, keep your end of the deal.
And keep it til the end.

New Blogskin :)

2010-12-09T16:33:00.000+08:00

Yay! Finally managed to create my new blogskin from scratch :)
So pleased so pleased with myself~

I dont know why but I suddenly had this urge to change my blogskin. So I went online to check out some but there were all not what I was looking for. Then I had the motivation to do the blogskin myself. I was still contemplating because I wasnt very good with html and stuff. x)

I wanted a very rough paper texture as background and I actually found a yellowish paper one online. I drew the curlish design on the left and wanted to somehow combine the background and the design. but I dont have photoshop etc so I cant do it. So I discard the yellow paper idea and proceeded to crush the paper with the design and some more white paper. Then scanned it in and put it as background so that it looks nicer :D

I put the background on repeat so it looks kinda weird cuz there are like lines where the background keeps repeating. Yeah... but overall.. I am quite happy with it :D I actually followed the html from another blog's html as a rough guide cause I totally forgot how to do it. Then I adjusted the places and stuff :) cool right!

Haha. Anyway, I cam currently obsessed with the drama Mary Stayed Out All Night. But the subbing person isnt subbing cause of some personal matters. cant wait xP
After watching that, I kinda taken a liking to Jung Geun Suk. heh. I think that when he smiles, he seriously looks like some five-year-old kid. so cute!

Have finished all my homework, hurray!
So happy with myself. :D
Cant wait for saturday to come~ I am gonna watch Walking With Dinosaurs!!! RAWR.
and also, going to Genting Highlands soooooonnnn (: (: yippee~
I dont want school to start~~~ D:

class chalet

2010-12-02T13:30:00.000+08:00

i am back from the class chalet.
it was basically a lot of fun and we bonded i guess since it was our first class chalet :)

day 1
i met up with nicoleg and then went to aranda country club and met nicolew and bryan there. we then went to the food court and just slacked til yohanes called me. we then went back to the country club again and waited. then checked in and i was quite amazed at how huge the room was. :D then slacked in the room until krystal and gen came. went to NTUC and bought the BBQ stuff.
afterwards, went to prepare the food. soon, all the others were downstairs trying to start the fire. nicg, pam and i were upstairs trying to thaw and separate the chicken. it was superbly disgusting and there was the smell of raw chicken all around. eww. then nicg flared up at some guys who were still at their room slacking and they finally did went down.
then it started raining and we moved the food upstairs. then after the rain stopped, nicg grace and i went down to help with the bbq. it was quite fun with the occasional songs coming from suting, haha. and there would always suddenly be a big fire appearing when xuhua adds fire starters.
then finally went up and left the cleaning up to yohanes jinheok and boning i think. we then went up and ate. there were a lot of leftovers and no one dared to eat the drumsticks cuz they looked damn gross and they were mostly half-cooked lol.
after cleaning up, we tried to watch She's Out of My League but then gen, krys and i got bored cuz there were 4 heads blocking us and we couldnt watch or hear anything. then soon, valen and xuhua came down too. krys gen and i then went to cheers and bought drinks and stuff. then went back. we then slacked outside at the living room playing dalaoer and cheat and did pushups -.- haha.
then went back to the room and finally, everyone decided to sleep yay.

day 2
i woke up at around 7 cuz i couldnt sleep once i woke up and the birds outside were damn noisy. i went out to have a hot drink cuz i had runny nose and them pamela came out. tried sleeping for awhile again and failed then pamela and i went to brush teeth and went outside. pam then went to wake jinheok and yohanes up and in the end only jinheok woke up. turns out he didnt know how to play dalaoer so we were like -.-/ then bryan woke up and boning also. then ate cup noodles while playing dalaoer.
after wards, we woke people up and then everyone started eating breakfast.
after much discussion, we finally agreed to go cycling. walked to pasir ris park and rented bicycles.
cycling was so much fun. totally missed how much fun it was with the wind blowing in my face. and cycling in groups is cool too :D suting kept having accidents and once she was riding down the slope she apparently flew off the bike and fell down. we all rushed to her and checked whether she was okay. luckily she was. and the bike was like turned in a weird shape. and the string thingy came out. gen went to fix it yay and we continued cycling :) valen got hurt while roller blading and we kept teasing pam about it haha.
then went and buy lunch back to the chalet. then nicoleg came and i went down to play badminton with her. jinheok boning gen krys came down later too. we kept getting annoyed at how the shuttle cock couldnt fly and then gen and krys' shuttlecock got stuck in the tree. haha. got it down finally was throwing rocks at it. played until the people upstairs said they wanted to watch movies.
went up and watched saw and i totally didnt get the movie at all. -.- then after finishing, most of them went to buy food except suting gen yingxuan krys and i. played badminton with yingxuan and it was a lot of fun as we smacked here and there. suting decided to be funny and recorded herself saying 'oops sorry' cuz i kept saying that everytime i missed or something. and she played it everytime the ball dropped. haha. then finally i accidentally hit the shuttlecock and it dropped inside gen's cup noodles bowl. i was totally shocked and kept saying sorry. haha. and we decided to scare the people when they came back by rushing to the toilet and hiding there when they came back. we had a false alarm twice! and when they finally did come back, none of us noticed at all so we didnt do anything -,- haha!
ate and then i played badminton with grace. i kept hitting too high haha. then watched tv and played the drinks game. in the end it kinda became like a 'talking without the s and f word' game so it got boring. then stopped and we decided to go to the guys room to play.
played truth or dare and it suddenly became quite boring at one point. then we started playing cards and then when i played stress i finally 'woke up'. stress was damn funny cuz everyone went kinda crazy haha. and yohanes kept saying to play polar bear so we finally gave in.
the first few rounds was quite boring cuz everyone kept giving themselves away, haha! then it started getting quite fun but the a few ppl decided to be sucidal. lol.
and then played til like 4am and i was totally shocked that it was that late. haha. went to sleep then without brushing my teeth since i figured it would be no point since i would be brushing them another 5 hours later.

day 3
woke up at 8.45 due to the annoying guys and the girls were all damn irritated cuz we were all very tired. woke up and packed and ate.
then while walking, i spent all my time trying to persuade grace to stay with me to watch movie. it worked :D the guys then went bowling and some of us just watched.
then grace pam and i went to buy tickets. and while walking back, i said that the cashier did not give me the correct change, it should have been 6 dollars more. we then went back and asked the girl there. and while the superior was checking the accounts for us, grace suddenly realised that she didnt give me bryan's share of 6 bucks, LOL! it was SO embarrasing and we said sorry to the girl and went back sheepishly. haha.
after the guys finish bowling, we went to eat at superdog and ate quickly. then went to watch Rapunzel 3D with the workers of cathay helping us store our 'camping' bags. haha.
Rapunzel 3D was very nice :D it was like the normal kind of animated movie and surprisingly, the movie managed to end it in a very rapunzel-like way by keeping the original story of the princess' magic tears. :) It was good and the songs were nice :) Pamela who sat beside me kept having funny comments. and there was this boy at the back who kept repeating some of the movie's funny lines with one of them including 'freak' haha.
after the movie finished, we decided to go to yohanes house. went there and watched the guys play halo with funny results. and then played monopoly with funny results as well.
wanted to play need for speed with grace but after restarting for like a thousand times, we finally played halo. i failed terribly by dying i think a thousand times as well. haha.
then finally went back and after sleeping in the bus, i finally realised that i had actually been struggling to keep my eyes open through out the whole day.

i am still very tired now. sigh.
gonna have an after noon nap later and watch the repeat of BOF at night later. haha :)
finally finished section 1 of the maths hmwk, it was SO TIRING. D:

really had fun at the class chalet and thanks to yohanes for even suggesting the idea in the first case and thanks to everyone who helped in any way and of course, the people who stayed and make it awesome!
i will definitely miss you guys LOADS! lets have another one next year! x)

USS

2010-11-19T15:12:00.000+08:00

I went to Universal Studios Singapore on Wednesday :)
It was so much fun and I sat on pretty much all of the more interesting rides!

Some rides which I think were good, which I sat on were the "Revenge of the Mummy" and "Canopy-something" ride :) These were quite fun :D
The mummy ride was just awesome. Sitting on the ride where you are going through something like a storytelling ride and with all the cinematic effects. At the main part of the ride, it would be so dark with only a few lighted poster-like figures flying past you so you dont know when will the rollar coaster go up or down. There was a part when the rollar coaster goes backwards, but it was only once and for a while. The ride was very good and FAST, which is a must-have for rollar coasters! And there are the up and down moments which makes this ride the best after the battlestar galactica since it is closed. I sat on it twice and thoroughly enjoyed it the second time since I wasnt that afraid anymore. :) I feel like sitting on it again~~~
The canopy ride was only 53 seconds!! haha. It was very fast and too short i think. But it was very fun. It was abit similar to a rollar coaster except that you are sitting in a seat which is hanging in mid-air. :) And it was very fun. There are the front and back seats. The back seat is way more fun as you dont know where will the chair be swinging to next, so it is much more thrilling! It was drizzling when i sat on it the second time, so it was really quite cool as the rain is splashing on you! :D

Anyway, just for those who want to know what is it like, the USS is divided into a few sections and there are different rides and stores and environment based on the theme of the section.
So the few sections are: Hollywood, Madagascar, Far Far Away (Shrek), The Lost World (Jurassic), Egypt, Sci-Fi, New York.
Madagascar was the most boring as the only interesting ride there was "coming soon". Far Far Away had more interesting stuff like 4-D, and a rollar coaster ride called 'Express Airways' I think. The Lost World had the Canopy and the Waterworld show which was quite interesting. Egypt had the mummy ride. Sci-Fi was supposed to have Battlestar Galatica. There is a ride called the Accelerator there which is just like a teacup ride which goes round and round. New York has an attraction where they show you how do the directors make special effect. It was really cool as the scene in front of me was quite realistic! And I attended a live concert where it was like Glee come alive. Haha. The ending song was Bon Jovi's It's my life :D Too bad the people watching were not very high.

Overall, USS is very nice and i spent the WHOLE DAY there. Entering from 10 and exiting at 7, which are its opening hours x) It would be much more exciting when Battlestar Galatica opens! ;P

USS

2010-11-16T21:29:00.001+08:00

I am going to USS tomorrow :D
excited much~

Have just sent the updated MPP proposal, hope that the teachers like it. :)

second blog

2010-11-12T18:23:00.002+08:00

hey people,
i have created a second blog on wordpress.
dont worry i am not gonna dump this blog.
this blog is still my primary blog, and the wordpress one is my secondary.
it is for my to post my writings like short stories etc or when i wanna emo ><
here is the link: http://www.randomscribbleswrittenbyapen.wordpress.com/
you dont have to visit it very often as most updates on stuff would still be on this blog :)

300th

2010-11-11T15:10:00.001+08:00

Yippee! This is the 300th posting made after my blog was established! haha, it is quite slow uh...
But nevertheless, it is quite cool :)
This brings back memories when Grace and I were competing to see who would be able to write more posts! just figured out how childish we were! x)

The holidays have been pretty boring, with its fair share of work as well.
We have Moot Parliament, which is quite hard as we have to think of a topic and stuff by tonight, to be submitted tomorrow. And we havent settled on one yet, which makes it quite bothersome as it seems as if I am the only one bothering with it. sheesh.

Watched "Predators" last night. It was gruesome when the predators spilled out green glowish blood?! No idea why was it like that. And it kinds of go deeper into humanity and the idea of kindness or death. Quite cool, though in the end, it wouldn't really make a good movie for families to watch together. Especially when you have young kids. heh.

Helped Vivianne set up her blogshop as well. She was being totally random and just suddenly asked me, hey sueqin, would you support me if i set up a blogshop? WHATTTT??? I was totally surprised but cool with the idea of a blogshop. I mean, I am currently having fantasies about being some rich kid due to a blogshop. HAHA. Helped her set it up and am currently waiting to get pictures, prices and all the details from her now. When it is ready, I will promote it here! :)

Now, I am just reading manga as usual and slacking away. I am totally not looking forward to tomorrow's MPP. Because what if the teacher totally hates our work? *shiver* This feeling of not living up to a teacher's expectations is really annoying.

hot guys

2010-11-01T15:04:00.000+08:00

I am being like a total no-lifer here by going around posting pictures of hot guys. lol.
Starting to miss school already. Miss the homework that is given to us despite our constant objections. Miss the recess where we queue up for cafe food and complain about Betty. Miss the days where I feel like dozing off during boring classes.
And most importantly, I miss the bickering, laughing and sharing with friends and classmates. :)
Holidays seem kind of useless now that I have started to lose interest in whatever that is on the internet. Have been wandering around on Wikipedia and reading up on people like Kate Moss and Twiggy. Reading manga is boring as well since I have already read most of the interesting shoujo mangas already. The rest of them are cliche stories.
Recently bought two terrapins. SHO KUTE. The smaller one is mine and the larger one is my brother's. A bit ironic uh? They are always stuggling around and they love to hide under the shelter though I always torture thoe poor small things by forcing them out. Haha.
Looking for potential laptops to buy and will most probably buy Toshiba protégé T230-1001 or Toshiba Portege R705-P2. Both toshiba :D and maybe a Samsung one.
Looking forward to going to Genting. Really hope that my auntie will be able to book seats for us.
And my father went to buy "Walking with Dinosaurs" tickets! :D so cool right! haha.

Not sure what to do these holidays.
Maybe some writing :)

~too free

missing kellyx

2010-10-28T19:41:00.003+08:00

I am gonna miss 2kellyx a lot... :'(

Got back my overall GPA and report books and stuff.
I was surprised as I got higher than what I had calculated and expected.
TOP 10% :D
But I know that I should not celebrate too loudly or anything as there are some people who may not have gotten a satisfactory grade.

Totally not looking forward to the last day of school tomorrow.
Which is kinda weird, seeing as how much I hate school.
But the thought of not being in the same class as my classmates of 2 years was kinda disturbing.
I still cant adjust to that thought yet.
I dont want to separate!

Memorable 2Kellyxians!
Krystal - amiable. internet-savvy. the only girl in class who luurrrvvvvveeeessss reading manga like me :D and whose hp always gets spammed by xuhua *ahem*. gets into fights with mingyu all the time! FPS.
Yuan Wen - out-spoken, dynamic. whistle! the girl whom I can never win in a debate, maybe, heh. Loves books and doesnt know what does a library book contain when the tape attached has a heart sign on it - remember?
NicoleG - straightforward, stubborn at times. the only other sengkang kellyxian and first friend, probably one of the best, that I made in DHS :) hates being called short and always argues til she wins ;P puts her handphone on silent without vibration, hence you have to have affinity with her for her to answer your call.
Genevieve - studious. the tall pretty girl whom I go on study dates with but end up camwhore-ing with x) walks with a skip. and you should really change your white (or grey?) bag! - it's so old! haha. zebras immediately nod noisily at me? (i not sure, but idea still there lahs!) always plans class outings. :)
Grace - a kind-hearted primary school friend and the girl who loves to GL. haha! visited me when i had stitches on my face. did i scare you??? xP loves jumping up on people suddenly! TOMYAM GIRL.
YingXuan - comical at times. the goody SC who loves to be paikia at times (spamming lift uh!) and who protects me from her barking cookie and cappucino x) and occasionally (maybe frequently) late. >D

manga

2010-10-20T10:39:00.001+08:00

Yippee! Exams are over. So it is back to doing the stuff I like - manga, anime, dramas! :D

Yesterday was quite fun. Got a call at 3 from Nicole asking me to go Grace's house. Was totally unexpected! I rushed all the way there as they said that they were already at serangoon when they called me. WHAT.

Played badminton while the poor cmps people did their work. Technically some cmps people played with the non-cmps ones too.

Was very fun. Brushed up my skills. It was really hard playing after so long. My wrist's aching now from volleyball and badminton. Oh yeah, we didn't get in top 8 D: saddd. the second match, our morale was really low and that kinda made us lose. we were like did we get in??? huh huh huh??? as there were a lot of mix-ups. went to watch "The other guys". It was quite funny but full of sick jokes. Technically, not very worth the money.

Gonna go buy nicole's camera later, and maybe play badminton again. haha.
Gonna check scripts tomorrow. sian! (praying hard)

In case you were wondering who the hot guys were (^), they are from Strobe Edge, Andou and Ren. COOLLLLLLL RIGHT :d

i can finally fly freeeeee~

examinations are over,
all studying shall cease.
my sufferings which once seem so endless,
shall finally come to an end,
and give me a new lease.

YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :D

very scared for interclass, and a lot of people cannot make it for the training.
up against B and I. *scared shit*
but i know that we can do it!!! jiayous, 2kellyx! :)

help

2010-10-11T20:41:00.000+08:00

I need a break.
Badly.
Those whereby I can just sleep through the days without being bothered about a ringing alarm clock.
Those whereby I can just walk past a stack of notes without feeling guilty.
Those whereby I can sit through the entire day without my parents nagging.
Those whereby I can just slack,
And rest,
And recuperate,
And enjoy time.
Where I do not have to keep looking at the clock and wish that time will pass slower.
Where I do not have to worry about the next test paper.
Where I do not have to wait impatiently for the next friday.
Where I do not panic,
Or mug,
Or fear,
Or be stressed out.
How I wish such days can just flash past me without affecting me at all.
But how do I do that?
It does affect.
And that is what is affecting me.
I should not be here in the first case,
Blogging.
About random stuff that I can just put into my blog just so that it doesn't die away.
I should get going,
Back to my notes,
Back to my frustration,
Back to my brain-drain activity.
Good luck,
That's all I can say,
And hope for
On such a sad day.
Let's all go back,
And hope,
As well as work,
For the very best that we can get.

exams

2010-10-08T17:19:00.001+08:00

gah. there has been so exams these days so i havent got the time to do much... but then why am i blogging too? haha. we just finished chinese paper 1 today and both LA papers yesterday. YESH. LA IS OFFICIALLY OVER. but i am very scared for history and geog especially. not particularly worried about maths because i cannot really study it i guess. but i should probably study set theory. it is so complicating. sheesh.
went to yoshinoya with maranda, yuping, jingwen, jocelyn, grace and later vivianne today after chinese paper finished. it was really fun and i think that was the biggest compassvalites-who-are-now-dunmanians gathering since this year? :) had great fun with you awesome people :D
have to start studying for history and geog soon. gah. wish me luck people.

mug

2010-09-26T21:18:00.000+08:00

have been totally mugging these days...
i am just blogging for fun too. heh.

there is this hua wen shei pa shei thingy on now and tonglin is on tv heh. :D
well. this blog is totally useless actually.

my brother is also just laughing so hard now because of some random stuff.
LOL.

and i hate the new sitting arrangement. though its probably better than sitting next to valen.
its very hot at the back and i cant see anything.
we wanted to change the arrangement but ms kheng is so.... si ban.
sheesh. so now i am stuck with the seats that i had been looking forward to so much. hmph.

bad night

2010-09-25T16:35:00.001+08:00

hi people, have not been blogging recently because i was very busy.

a particular thing that i wanna talk about... MAF.
it was planned to be an awesome night with sparklers and bonding but it ended in quite a horrible way.
someone did something which we totally underestimated.
and we lost nicole's cam. so sorry.
we havent settle as to how do we pay for the cam yet.. :(

i also celebrated with my family. burnt myself while playing sparklers now. wth.
but it was great fun and we didnt win the lucky draw D:
my bro was so sad. haha. cuz he usually always wins. lol.

yesterday was damn fun lahs.
after school, we played for a while volleyball. the poor ball was being bathed in water like every minute.
i had SC interview. it was very scary. i know that the teachers were very nice though the questions that they ask are very difficult to answer. :(
then went to play somemore. ying ying was there to coach us :D thanks a lot! :)
we really did improve, for those there, i think :)

these days have been hectic and i finally finished my moodle assignments :D
my group got into MPP too! yay :D
gonna be mugging these few days because of exams.
i have another problem to deal with: choosing of vball players.
shit lah. everyone is like wanting to go in but obviously not everyone will. currently discussing with yingxuan. hope she can help with decide asap!

late

2010-09-15T18:05:00.001+08:00

well, this post is superbly long overdue.

lets see what i did currently...
watched Step Up 3D, Shutter Island, When In Rome.
celebrated Jing wen's birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY JINGWEN!)
went to cousin's house to play during hari raya
did CIP at tanjong rhu

well, thats a lot of stuff. CIP was fun though it was so very tiring.
jingwen's birthday 'party' was fun too. bet she was very surprised, heh.
camwhore at cousin's house. not really camwhore lahs. a little. hehe. :)

hmm.. went to yingxuan's house yesterday until around 7.
mugged science. well, we did for the first 2 hours. the rest of the time was accompanied by occasional jokes. and teasing gen about someone. heh.
i was really scared of the dogs. i mean, when u dont move, they are really cute. but once u start moving, they will start barking a lot. i really appreciated yingxuan 'protecting' me while i was going to the toilet. and i know that u dont really mean it when u said 'beat' to the dogs. u love them too much, haha. :) but still, cookie and cappucino are quite scary, but cute. i miss xiaobao!!! >.<

today's pe lesson was very suan-ing. mr kwok kept scolding and suaning us like hell. he keeps using this sarcarstic or cynical tone, like as if we were some experiment gone wrong and that he was venting his anger at us. he made it seem like as if he could do it and that we couldnt even though it was quite 'simple'. sheesh. but i still think that practising vball is so much more meaningful than playing frisbee. arms aching.

theres chi test tomorrow. dont know if i should be freaking out or be excited to watch glee. haha.
love channel 5. and channel 8. its shows are getting better now. go in go out. HAHA.

gonna post some unglam and bimbotic pictures on facebook.
gonna have curry fish head for dinner. YESH.

teacher's day

2010-09-01T17:24:00.000+08:00

Teachers are for life...

Teacher's day was absolutely great. Meeting up with friends, giving gifts to the teachers! I hope that the teachers really enjoyed their gifts. Even though some of us may give the same old stuff like mugs, photo frames, I hope that the teachers understand that it is not the gift that matters, but the meaning, sincerity and love behind that gift. Well, teachers may be mean at times, but at the end of the day, we will still realise how much we have learnt and benefitted from them :) The concert and food fiesta put up the students councilors, although may be a little flawed, is still being put up by a lot of effort. I believe that the teachers would be able to recognise that.
Meeting up with my old schoolmates was a definite joy. I did not know that the school had actually allowed the students to enter the school compound. Everyone was so glad! It was really funny and surprising as well to hear the guys' voices that had broken. Haha. Jason was still gigantic and TALL. Stanley was still the same although he has grown upwards. x) The gals then chatted and went to take a picture. :D Jasmine tag!!! Then, Leonard followed the girls and we went all around before deciding to go compass point. Vivianne was apparently hungry and wanted to eat. I am almost sure that she ate for ONE HOUR. haha. pro sia. We then went to CC and TRIED to snatch the basketball court. We failed. TERRIBLY. xP Then went to the koufu court and managed to get a court. I scored one :D Then suddenly realised that PQ was DAMN TALL. WTH. Leonard was damn funny. A real comedian! haha. He said, "Grace 会玩 basketball. Yuping is in volleyball. Then Pu Qian is 神 ah!" haha. real funny. Then PQ and chok geow went off. Leonard, Yuping, Grace, Pat and me stayed at Sculpture Park and did Truth or Dare. Technically it was only truth. Heh. Leonard was like saying he liked SOMEONE. But not really sure if it was a joke or not leh. zzz. ._.
ANYWAYS, IT WAS SERIOUSLY GREAT FUN WITH U GUYS. U ALL ROCK MY WORLD. :D chalet anyone??? x)

Hope that the teachers appreciated our effort.
And, HAPPY TEACHERS DAY!

~ dont wanna get back to school hmph

YOG

2010-08-26T22:30:00.000+08:00

Gah, I am actually posting this just when YOG ended D:

I went to Singapore Indoor Stadium to watch table tennis with NicoleG, Gen, Weirong, Yohanes, Benedict and Zhenyang. On the way there, we kept on teasing 2 people, haha. Gen was getting seriously annoyed so we stopped. awww~
When we finally got there, we were all covered in sweat. We entered the tents and went through security checks. It was quite cool actually. And when we finally reached inside, it was really damn cool. The atmosphere I mean. x) We got our seats and made a toilet trip (?). haha. Then we started watching matches. We watched these 2 girls. The guys supported the red girl because she was pretty. We found out later that she's called Alice. I supported the blue girl though. The blue girl won :D Then there was a match between 2 guys. Nic and I supported the blue guy whom we found out was called Mutti. He's sooooo cute :) He won :D Turns out Mutti was in the same team as Alice. When they were playing mixed doubles against the other 2, they lost! It was all because of Alice!!!! haha. >.<
We then went to took a picture with Mutti and got autographs from Alice. We are so despo! :p
Finally, the Singapore VS Egypt match. There were alot of suspense-filled moments. It felt good when everyone cheered at the same time. There were a few primary school kids who screamed, "Lets Go Singapore Lets Go". THEY WERE SO CUTE AND AWESOME. I found that Clarence kept fumbling. :( But we still won eventually.
We then went to KLP and saw Dr Foo there. He was listening to ipod. Imagine That! haha. We also saw LLS. They were hosting some China teachers. And Dr Foo actually offered to treat us. We kindly refused of course. They went to a Chinese restaurant, with a PRIVATE ROOM. OMG. so cool.
We ate subway and the girls refused to tell the guys something. Because Yohanes dont wanna give us Mutti's signature. haha. x)

--
Today was the closing ceremony of YOG.
The performances were great. Though I think that the athletes in front of the stage were not as high as those behind it. lol.
YOG was a seriously great experience for Singapore. I think that we have done a great job of hosting the very first Youth Olympic Games and we deserve a round of applause for that. :) We have proved ourselves and shown the world that size does not matter. We can do it as well! Of course, the display of sports by the various athletes are also essential in making this a success.
THANKS TO ALL VOLUNTEERS, ORGANIZING COMMUNITY, MR NG SER MIANG, THE ATHLETES AND ALL SUPPORTERS! WE ALL PLAYED A PART :D

--
Today's geog test was totally screwed. zzz.
Chi calligraphy was okay. I guess. My writing looked very stupid and I think the teacher felt so too. He pointed out some mistakes. boohoo D':
Looking forward to the weekends, definitely.

Anyway, dont you think he is just SO HOT. HE IS TANAKA KANESHIRO. <3

CRAZY FUN

2010-08-18T22:04:00.000+08:00

Yo! Havent been blogging these days, damn lazy to do so.

I still remember on Monday, I went to Macs with Nicole and Suting. It seems like a long long time ago though. hmm... We were supposed to go study there. Well, we did do some geog and maths. But after that, we started joking and stuff. According to them, I sang "She's a monster" really high and like shaking. So Suting was laughing like mad. Well, I was too. Then Nicole ask me a maths question and I started singing, "Liar!" again. LOL. Haha. Suting went to upload some weird and funny pictures we drew then.

Yesterday was also, quite eventful I must say. Boning, Zhenyang, Nicole and I stayed back. The 2 guys and I stayed back for sci project while Nicole stayed back for fun to study. We started discussing the sci project and came up with weird ideas using a box! Haha. And boning and zhenyang were both damn funny. Junwei (2J) also. Then we 'tricked' Vivianne to come to our class by saying that I wanted to see her when it was actually Boning.
They 'fought' over the SC Teacher's Day thingy. Well, Boning tried to appear intimidating but failed in that sense. Then we discussed some more sci stuff. The 2 guys were like my workers who were trying to promote a proposal to me, the boss. haha. :d Then, Vivianne came back.
They discussed some more Teacher's Day stuff. And Nicole, Zhenyang and I were leaked some 'info'. hehe. Then we, the non-SCs, contributed ideas that apparently, were 'extraordinary'. ??? Lol. I guess sometimes u have to see things from a different point of view. :) Then, we started eating some food.
And then, just at that time, Miss Lee had to come in to check class cleanliness. And we got caught. Actually, Boning surrendered. ZZZ, we were like, wth?! Then when Miss Lee scolded him, he tried to justify. Which he failed. TERRIBLY, resulting in another much more worse consequence for the SCs. And I must admit that I feel that I had a part to play in this as well. If maybe we hadnt encouraged u guys, then maybe this wouldnt have happened.... :(

Today was 'great'. Sense the sacarsm please.
There was History which I think I will gg for sure. My utility was a bit weird I think and my similarity ques was also weird and not strong. Zzz. And tmrw still have chinese tingxie. We have to learn these long phrases and know the meanings as well. I mean, I find it quite okay... but I dunno how will the real thing turn out.

~just have to wait and watch

national day

2010-08-10T00:00:00.001+08:00

HAPPY 45TH BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE! WOOTS! :D

Well, today was great! We had this CMPS donation drive where we collected e-waste and stuff. Intially, Nicole and I truthfully thought that it would be a failure. Or less than what our expectations were. But it still turned out great I guess. We had collected quite a lot of e-waste, surprising :)

Met with Nicole at Burger King at first. Ate breakfast there. Then met up with Grace who is as usual, late. :p Took the bus to Pamela's house and was really tempted to just get down at the stop near my auntie's house and pangseh them both, hehe. Went to Pam's house and SLACKEDDD. Played with the really cute and fat terrapin! I miss my own~
Went down and just did practically nothing constructive??? We really just waste 2 hours down stairs I think. Then, finally the CMPS people came down after we called them. Quite irritated because they asked us to do stuff but we are not even really sure so its like, whats the point?
Finally things got started and we managed to organise the roles and everything. I went to collect e-waste with Krystal, NicG, Weirong, Felix and Jinheok. We found a washing machine! hehehe. :) And then collected quite a few more e-waste as well. I would consider it quite a considerable feat considering the fact that we are students! :D *applause*
Then helped out with the making of e-pledges. The kids are real CUTE :D
Then went up to Pam's house and attempted watching "The Strangers". But we soon lost interest in it when the pizza came I guess. Then we had to paint the boxes. Waste quite a lot of time there too. Then Valen, Shinmin and Pam went to go buy spray cans. :P
Sprayed/Painted the boxes with Nicole and Weirong. Haha. Really fun spraying the cans! But they finished really fast, SADDDDD. :(
Finally went home at around 5.15 I guess :)

Watched the National Day Parade! :)
The mobile column was COOOOOLLLLL!
It actually arrived at Sengkang but I did not go watch D: I wanna watch like 5 years later when it comes again! hehe x)

Sianzzz, tmrw still need do CHINESE HOMEWORK. THE HORROR. EVEN SCARIER THEN HORROR MOVIE. AN EG: THE STRANGERS. haha.
And need go out~~~ zzz. But gonna go my aunt's house after that! If I can xD

~why cant everyday be a school holiday?

National Day and Yuji

2010-08-08T13:38:00.000+08:00

Celebrated national day on Friday.
When we took Circle Line to school, Jingwen and I decided to wait for 158 instead of walk since its NATIONAL DAY CELEBRATIONS! But, our plan failed... One bus came and it was too full. We waited till Yuping and Grace come. Waited some more and then, when we decided to walk and crossed the bridge, 158 and 158A arrived! WTH. -.-

Sat at a 2 hour concert with our legs aching a lot. Sang songs and dance Hip Hop??? LOL. Took lots of pictures (: Then after the concert finished, I went to KLP with Grace, Krystal and Gen. Ate at Pastamania :D Then waited and then filmed in KLP when Nicole, Yuan Wen and Gerald came. Haha. We were actually not allowed to film but wadeva~~~
Then walked all the way to Macs to use the wireless and film. Waited for Benedict and tried to access the freakin wireless - we couldn't. -.- Yuan Wen, Nicole and I gossiped a lot and Gerald was sworn to secrecy to not reveal anything. HAHA. Laughed like mad at macs. I think we looked like a bunch of crazy gals.
Finally Benedict came and SOMETHING HAPPENED. (not gonna say) Then, Ben, Yuan wen and I went outside to film. I was laughing damn hard outside also. Yuan wen and Ben were SO FUNNY, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY KEPT NG-ING! Haha. XD Then, went to macs again and filmed the final part. Then, the SOMETHING continued. And then they left. I waited in macs cuz I was gonna meet with my parents to go eat at Long Beach Seafood Restaurant nearby - It was actually open! O.o

Ate at Long Beach. My father ordered a four hundred dollar ALASKAN KING CRAB. I was like "WHAT??!!!" It was nice to eat though! :) The legs were really big and fleshy. Hehe. xP Then finally walked home while being damn sleepy and literally nearly sleeping wherever I went. ><

---

YESTERDAY :)
Met up with Nicole at the Mrt. Before that, I saw this grandma at the bus stop looking really lost. I was hesitating whether to help or get up on the bus that was already here. I chose the latter. :( I was feeling damn guilty so I smsed my mum to go help her. But my mum said that she did not see any grandma. Well, hoped that she found her way.
So, waited at Serangoon for Grace and made our way to Promenade. Went to Suntec and spam-cam at the Fountain of Wealth. Found out that it's the biggest fountain in the world! Seriously??? o.O Then ate at Subway and met Mingyu and Boning there. Teased Boning about his Subway sandwich and Joelle! HAHA.
Then went to the Esplanade and walked walked.
Reached and spam-cam somemore hehe.
YuJi finally started and when we sat in our places, we started complaining about how hot it was. haha. I was damn irritated by the boys in front who kept making noises. Zzzz.
YuJi was unexpectedly nice. It's a love story and Kit Chan acted in it. She sang really well. (: She acted as Li Qing who was in love with this China guy called Ying Xiong. Ming Li was secretly in love with Li Qing but still helped her in her love with Ying Xiong. There was this particular song which was damn impactful because it was when this song was sang, Li Qing announced that SHE WAS PREGNANT!!! HAHAHAHA. You can actually hear the audience gasped when she said that! hahah :P A true scandal indeed!
Well, the ending was quite sad for Ming Li but at least his love was acknowledge :D

Then went to eat dinner with my family AGAIN. Haha.
I had A SUPER DIFFICULT AND IRRITATING time trying to cross the road from the esplanade to Marina Square! The road got blocked because of YOG!!!! WTH. I was like walking for 30 min trying to find a way to go to Marina Square! Every entrance was like BLOCKED. I WAS DAMN FRUSTRATED AND PISSED LAH. They should really put up signs and everything. It was made more chaotic underground cuz there were so many people! Zzz! >:(

I am damn lazy to go and do that thick stack of chinese practice paper!
My computing group is also SCREWED. Nicole forgot to pass the thumbdrive.... Zzz.
And then there is this RS thingy where I have to type out an essay on 3 social issues in Singapore!
AND COME ON. ITS NATIONAL DAY. CANT I HAVE A BREAK???
Tomorrow still got this CIP thingy and I have to go early. HECK.

LIFE IS OFFICIALLY TOTALLY HECTIC AND JUST CRAZY.

*sorry for the use of bad words.

~too little time

nice. maybe.

2010-08-03T18:56:00.000+08:00

Every one has been posting nice pictures on their blog. I want to too! But I dunno where to find. D:

Today has been kinda great I guess. Except for the fact that Ms Poh made us stay back until 2.10pm so that she could go through the maths common test. Whats funnier is that I got full marks and I also have to stay back! Zzzz. But I am indeed glad about the fact that I got full marks! Hehe. :)

Watched D13:U yesterday. It is really cool! Go watch it! It is a French movie so just watch it with subtitles. The stunts and actions are all REAL. They also have the urban ride
Watched Losers too. I guess this movie is more for guys. Not much.... real action. It is mostly guns and explosives. And more guns. Chris Evans looked good in there though. x)

Wonder if I mentioned about LSP. Well, LSP teacher was really funny and cool. In a way. Yeah. His lessons are really interesting though I think that near the end, I kinda got bored and got tired of laughing too much.

Science test today was a havoc and a disaster sent from above. I did not even know that there was science test! I just went to classroom, see people revising and I am like 'what?'. I totally screwed it up I think. millisecond is in thousands, not millions!!!! GAH. That got to a bad start.

Craving for pictures that make me wanna post it on blog. Or maybe I should take them myself? I want a manual camera! I have this perception that only manual cameras can take such beautiful pictures with that kind of essence that make people think. :)

Just found out that Ben and Nic got something on friday, the day we are supposed to do computing! GAH. We are so gonna die for this project.

Sometimes we stop and think,
Sometimes we stop and see,
Sometimes we stop and listen,
But I stop and learn to live.

Inception

2010-07-31T23:33:00.000+08:00

Went to Plaza Sing last Tuesday to watch Inception with Suting. Heres the review :)

INCEPTION

Storyline: Cobb is an extractor, a man who goes into people's dreams while they are asleep to steal their ideas/plans. He is then employed by an ex-victim of his extracting and is asked to do inception on a wealthy boss' son. First off, Inception means to plant an idea in a person's head without letting that person know that that idea came from you. To do that, Cobb and his team would have to do it through the subconscious. They go through dreams within dreams. And with the heavy sedative doses, they realise that they would not wake up as usual if they die in a dream. Instead, they would end up in a semi-comatose state - vegetables. This movie explores the mind and the past of Cobb and of course, Inception. :)

Verdict: A FREAKINGLY GREAT MOVIE! But if you cannot get the movie fast enough, you will be just sitting through a movie not knowing anything that happens. Thus, be sure to get a movie partner unless you are pretty sure you can get everything right. Great stunts and actions! And, the end!!!!! ARGH. Why can't they just give us a definite ending?!!!! Freaking director!!!

Rating: 4.5/5 FANTASTIC! :D Watch ittttt!!!!

Yesterday was the qualifying rounds of FPS :)

Was okay I guess. Our group finished at least!!! :D YAHOO.

Then went to get lost in ION Orchard with Yuping. haha. Was my first time there. ION is so confusing. There should have an easier layout.

Maths test was okay I managed to finish all the questions but did not have time to check D:

GAH. I am still freaking out over the Inception ending!!! DID THE DAMN TOP DROP OR NOT?!

~the spinning top

what a feeling

2010-07-26T21:47:00.002+08:00

Today was pretty great. Got 7 for the geog test which had been ages ago.
Did an SEQ practice today. Was freaking chionging like hell.

Presented the chi lang du today. We screwed up a lot lahs. Dun think that we can get into top 3. :(
I was freaking nervous. It was only when I touched my own hand then did I realise that it was damn cold. Like really really cold..... NERVOUS.
At the starting Boning was like embarrassing himself by struggling to put the mic and then DROP IT. I am speechless!!!! -.-

And FB is currently being totally spammed just because of some wall posts. LOL.

Anyway, ate BUFFET at the Punggol seafood at Saturday :D :D :D
Was in the taxi when this song came up and Im reminded of how good it is. U must listen ALL THE WAY!!! This song rocks!!! x)

ZZZZ. just at this point the touchscreen calculator spoileddddddd.
SPOILS MY MOOD CUZ IT SEEMS LIKE ITS MY FAULT???

D:<

Gonna watch Inception tmrw. Not gonna let that spoil my mood. :)

2010-07-22T21:58:00.007+08:00

Went to watch Despicable Me yesterday after much persuasion and my mum agreed :)

DESPICABLE ME
Storyline: Grue is set out to beat the villian who stole a pyramid by stealing...... THE MOON! But in order to do that, he engages the help of 3 adorable orphaned girls by adopting them. Through this, he learnt that sometimes it isn't always about who's stealing the better stuff.
Verdict: A really adorable and funny family comedy movie. :) The minions are cute and the naive yet heart-warming character of Agnes is really great too! They should have inserted more parts when Grue interacted with the 3 girls, to show the relationship blossoming slowly and that it is not an overnight thing.
Rating: 4/5 Will keep you laughing!

Now I wanna watch Inception :)

Saw a reptile today at the canal near Macs. Actually it was two. And they were MATING.

^ See what those two are up to? :P

Meanwhile, I decided to post one of my drawings once again. I am kinda proud of this one I guess. I drew it with only pen and paper. No eraser or pencil. :) And the girl's eyes are nice. The legs are kinda weird though. hmmmm. I should do more drawing :D hehe.

Me proud of me-self! :D

Anyway, while coming back on the train today, I kinda overslept to Lorong Chuan. Iwas like just went into deep sleep when I was at Serangoon so yeah.... zzz.

Today's Chinese test was fail. I finished just in the nick of time which is not a good sign. I should practice my zhong he tian kong. hmmm. :)

~ inception!!!!

Humans, vid, failed movie

2010-07-17T23:26:00.001+08:00

Yo :) So today has been kinda awesome in a way. I guess. :)

We first went for Humanities Challenge. It was raining :( Was late and Grace took the mrt before me. -.-
When we reached the station, there was like this whole bunch of students from other schools struggling to find their way. When they saw us, I guess they just played Simon Says and followed us.
The year 2s sat in the PAC. The performances were kinda sian after a while. I think all exceeded 10 min??? Maybe not? All of us kept going out to toilets. LOL.

After that, it was refreshment. Boning, Felix and Zhenyang arrived last. LOL. But apparently the train broke down so they were delayed. haha. Hopefully ms ling will accept their reason. :p Then practised Chinese reading thingy. I suck. A lot. LOL. Took pictures. Laughed. Sang California Gurls and stuff. :D :D :D

Then went to macs and ate late lunch???
Gossiped. :D :D :D
And I finally realised how slow I am at some stuff. Like really.

Then headed to Valen's house. We took like 1h 30 min cuz bus 12 did not want to come.... zzz.
Now that I think about it, I had no idea how did we pass that time. ._. We came up with crappy and bimbo-tic script lines on the bus. The person next to us must be thinking, "Why am I here of all places?" x)

Finally reached his house. Pressed his doorbell like 3 times? Must be spoiled cuz he could not hear a thing. LOL. Then went in. His mother was damn nice lahs. :) Then wasted 30 min. We kept laughing at the lines. Especially when it got to when Yuan Wen said "amanda loo ling ling @ hotmail.com" HAHAHA. Is there even a name like that??!!! HAHAAHAHAH. xD
Nicole and I decided to battle it out at audition. We both failed terribly. I got like 2 thousand points while Nicole got none! hahaah. Just then Valen decided to help and Nicole got FIVE THOUSAND! arrrrrgggghhhh. haha. And she won obviously. LOLs.
Valen's mum then treated us to food. :) :)
Then went back to filming. I not sure when it was but then there was at one point of time when the phone rang and Valen went to pick it up.
"Hello? Hello? Wrong number. Lol lol lol lol lol lol. Bye bye bye bye." *hangs up*
Turns out that was Yuan Wen's mum. HAHAHAHAAH. EPIC SIA.
Then at the part when Yuan wen was chatting with her 'bf', we were desperately trying not to laugh. hahah. The parts are just toooooo funny sia. "You are the world to me....... my guardian angel....." HAHAHA. And Yuan Wen was like just exagearrating her laughter so it was damn hard to control our laughter. Once everyone heard the beep of the pause button, we all burst out laughing.

Then went online to check the movie timings and realised that all were booked. -.-
So we decided to cancel the movie outing. Damn sad.
Sorry Grace, Yuping and Ruyi!!! Let's organise another one another time!!! :)

Tried to persuade my parents to let me watch a movie alone.
PLAN FAILED. D:
In the end I went to Compass Point and just wandered around and went to the library.
Borrowed comics and ate dinner there. Not exactly fantastic.
And guess what? I FOUND A COMIC VERSION OF MERCHANT OF VENICE! Pro right!!! Haha.
Who wants to borrow??? Though not totally accurate. haha. :p

Sigh. Got a lot of projects need to chiong.
Maths trail, SIP presentation. And still got maths and sci ws.
Maths ws especially. SO HARD. HOW THE HELL DO THEY COME UP WITH SUCH TOUGH QUESTIONS LOR!!!!

Hmm...
Havent been blogging in a while.
Not really sure what to say....
Anyway, I typed 'Pessimist' myself. Just to let u guys know. I typed it out in like what 15 min? Once you have the inspiration and stuff, I just type and type. And those are my real feelings.
Just posted just random pictures of 2 kellyx on Facebook. :)

Tomorrow is gonna be hectic. Kinda.
Have to be school by 8.30 am to go support people in the Humanities Challenge.
After that will have Chinese script rehearsal. Cant memorise....
Then go Valen's house do project when he is technically not in our group... LOL..
Then go to Tampines or e!hub and watch movies :) Yippee!

Am currently in love with the song "Airplanes". Go listen!!!!!
I mean, the only thing that I am really crazy about is the chorus. :)
"Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars,
I could really use a wish right, a wish right now, a wish right now...."
This song rocks! ALOT!

LOL. I am being random.
Currently being buried by alot of deadlines and stuff.
Gotta finish maths trail and SIP by monday. zzz.

pessimist

2010-07-08T22:12:00.001+08:00

I have to admit this. I am a pessimist. I try to think the best out of anything. But, I always end up feeling that I could have done better if I had done this, if I had done that.
If I could turn back time. To the time when I was making the decision. I would tell the me back then not to choose it. Maybe things could have been better. Maybe things could have been worse.
So what if it would have been worse?
I do not mind going back there, trying another path, since the one that I have already taken is not exactly what I have expected.
I am just wandering aimlessly. Wondering, what am I doing here?
What is my purpose? Am I going to be someone like Mother Theresa, Albert Einstein or Michael Jackson? Am I going to be a rockstar? Or am I going to be just another one of the billions of nameless, unknown people in the world?
What should I do? What can I do to go towards the path that I am meant for?
What IS my path?
I do not know.
I wonder and wonder. Ponder and ponder. Think and think.
I get more and more depressed. What am I doing here?
How I wish that the future me would tell me what to do.
So that I do not have to consider the consequences, the pros and cons. For I would have already known them. And for I would have already known what to expect.
That everything is going to be alright.
I keep rewinding back.
I shouldn't have done that... I should have gone... I should have said that...
All that regret.
I cannot do anything. I am losing confidence.
I am afraid to make choices. Afraid that I would disappoint others. My friends, my family, even strangers who are somehow interconnected to me.
And, eventually, I am afraid that I would disappoint myself.
The myself that once so naively thought that my life was planned out in such a way that it would be smooth, pleasant, free of worry and danger.
I was so naive back then.
I should not have taken everything for granted. I should have worked harder. I should have tried out more things, taken up the chances.
All that regret.
It is welling up inside me.

grace's bdae, youth day

2010-07-05T21:47:00.001+08:00

Today is Grace's birthday!!!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GAL! :D

Actually met up this morning with nic g before meeting grace. We were waiting outside popular, mini toons and action city. Waiting for one of the 3 shops to open so that we can buy wrapping paper for Grace's gift! haha. At 10.30, where we supposed to meet Grace at 10.35, we eventually managed to buy wrapping paper from a still unopen Action City shop! HAHA. We look so despo. We rushed to the bus stop and hoped that Grace was late. (which she was) We rushed and managed to wrap the gift in an almost presentable manner. :p Just when we finished, her car came. I thought it was her car and then went to see the front seat but saw a younger girl and thought that it was not Grace so I turned back. Then Grace suddenly appear out of nowhere. Turns out she was in the back seat and the girl in front seat was her sis. LOL. Grace and Nic was laughing cuz i looked damn funny rushing to the car then suddenly stopping and turning back when Grace was actl in the car. haha. :D

We had really a lot of fun on the beach.
We met at Carl Jr. After like 40 min from the initial meeting point, all the people are finally here so we started ordering. The burger was smaller than what we had expected... ._. LOL. Stole fries here and there. xP

We headed to the beach, with much difficulty, until Gen said that she know how to go. hahah. Went there and slacked around and played wacko and splat while the guys prepare for telematch. Xuhua got buried to his neck. Pro. Then we started the games. The 1st game was a water bomb thingy. Our strategy kinda backfired. Grace and Nicole got like really wet in the end. I must say that Ben and Gen are like ninja assasins liddat. There was once when Ben threw a water bomb straight to my chest. The impact was like damn hard, my breath was KNOCKED OUT OF ME LAHS. After that I very scared to face the bombs straight on. ._.
The second game was a obstacle course? The first riddle's answer was Ip Man. The clue was something about internet protocol and the birth of mankind? SINCE WHEN DID IP MAN HAVE INTERNET???!!! We bought the answer with a clue. heck care la. We went to answer questions one by one. I was supposed to say what was Zhenyang's height??? i obviously got splashed as a 'forfeit'. With SEAWATER. best lah. Then we had to dance. Which we did the chicky dance. -.- Ran to the yellow staircase??? LOL. haha. we won the race but lost in terms of points. sheesh.
The third one is treasure hunt I think. It is by our group :D After like 10 min, we finally got the groups going to find stuff. Meanwhile, we were working our guts out to create the 'obstacles' for the 5-legged race. x) We had fun creating the trench i think. IT WAS A WORK OF ART :D To me that is. ^^ Suting and ying xuan came to help us when it was actl a disadvantage to them? haha.
Then we ate cake :D Yuan wen left then. :( We then proceeded to start the race. Was damn funny seeing the members struggling to move left and right. HAHAHAHAHA. Sorry, I very sadistic one. :p There was one part when Valen was like in front of the cup then he took it by the mouth. Pam was like gonna help him when Krys said, no! must carry like this all the way. haha. his expression was like the 'damn it lah! wl!' kind of face. HAHA. He also helped take the slipper! I think he contributed most to his team. HAHA. Boning that grp was like just clumsily completing the race. They took the cup then spilled the water and still dunno wad happened. haha. damn funny. whereas gen that group gave up halfway cuz suting was getting pissed with mingyu. HAHAHA. xD
The last part was the best I think. We played frisbee. Gals VS Guys. Guys won lahs. I was trying to defend the frisbee that I fell down. -.- Haha. Had great fun though! We should really play like this during PE lessons. Though I think mr kwok would be shocked at our 'awesomely' terrible skillls. Haha
Overall, (as my FB status) "Today was FUN. Happy birthday Grace and thanks for organising such an awesome outing for us on Youth Day! :D YOU ROCK! Had fun getting my fingers dirty with Carls Jr burger sauce. Playing and getting splashed with sea water(bleh). Best of all, I got to see how u ppl look like struggling to walk altogether in the 4/5-le...gged race! HAHAHAH. x) Thanks to Grace for sending me back and fro too! Argh, my legs aching... ._."

Anyway, forgot to post about the sch's youth day celebrations. Will just write a little. :P
The games were kinda boring in that sense as our group was seriously un-enthu and then valen and shinmin were like in their own world? So, yeah. Some games were fun though. The one with the chairs and the chicken, turkey and croc thingy? The squeeze game was damn funny. Shinmin was like 'dunno when to run' cuz Valen had actl been squeezing his hand all along so he doesn't know which is the real one! EPIC.
The painting thingy was GREAT. our hands got really gross and colourful. I feel like the africans in the "Oh Africa" MV. HAHA. The canvas turned out great i guess. at least u can see that everyone, k maybe a lot of ppl(?), contributed. :D
We then washed our hands with difficulty. Thanks to dunno-whats-ur-name who helped us press the tap! :) Changed to uniform and then went to eat lunch. Chionged to the PAC and managed to see Joelle dance. She was wearing a really low bare-back dress. WOW. We could hear everyone like 'wow' when she turn around while dancing. haha. I must say that she dances better than vivianne (sry,vvn!) during latin dance.
We then ran to the General Knowledge Challenge where we were supposed to help out. There were a few funny moments. Such as when st and nic w thought that mr lee said 'shoot the need a rice'. LOL. Also:
Yoh: "then zhenyang and i help out for registration lor!"
St: "aiyo so gay!"
Mr Lee: "(silence for a while, looks at yoh) precisely."
Laughter. HAHAHAHAHA. xD
Was damn tired after standing for so long during GKC. ugh.
Kinda cool meeting pri school kids too! saw tonglin's bro! His school was 4th for the GKC i think. :)
Overall, was great.

Youth Day + Grace Birthday + A great day at the beach = Loads of laughter and fun
^ The prefect formula :D

GAH. So not looking forward to a day mugging at school. ugh. D:

~i want another holiday!

failure... maybe

2010-06-30T21:01:00.000+08:00

Hiiiieeeeeeee :)

Today was okay. I forgot to blog about FPS test yesterday.
We got in around five min late so we got the late start. I was reading the future scene and did not get what were we supposed to focus on exactly. So, I re-read it again. >.< Finally, I had a vague idea about what was I supposed to do. Kind of. I thought of problems. I was stuck at two. I tried thinking of catergories to broaden my 'views and choices'. Finally, I thought of the last one. I initially thought that there were 4 problems that we were supposed to think up of. Luckily, we were only supposed to do three. hehe. :P
I was rushing through the Underlying Problem that I forgot to focus on 'cyber security system'. I just added that on later so that it would seem to relate to teh topic. :p I think went on rush through the solutions and criterias. My action plan was kind of done I guess. I finished! Successfully! :D So happy~

PE was unexpectedly fun. We played frisbee. We had to throw frisbee to one another and cover one round of the track. I throwed quite badly i think. :( But I caught nicely :D Was quite fun! We came in third in the first round and first in the second round. Woohoo! :)

Computing was slaaaacccck as usual. Mr Low was rambling stuff about videos that did not really get into my head at all. Was reading blogs, plurking, twittering and just roaming around. x) Computing was more of a rest time for us after PE I guess. :)

LA lesson was quite fun. We had to split into groups and do discussion for Merchant of Venice. We DID discuss for like 10 min maybe then started talking. Valen started dotting Nicole's elbow. Her elbow was full of dots and random black lines. Haha. Then suddenly Valen started using the whiteboard marker to dot my arm. I then took the marker from him and drew A BIG SMILEY FACE on his arm. Haha. He was rubbing it hard. :p LOL.

Discussed maths project for maths trail thingy after school. I thought that we would take realllllyyyy long then in the end we came up with the idea in like 10 min? :) The idea is quite cooooolllll :D :D :D

~life might be wonderful now, but chaotic the next

stress

2010-06-29T17:40:00.000+08:00

Went to macs just now with like 11 people...
Nicole g, Suting, Yuan Wen, Pamela, Genevieve, Benedict, Yohanes, Wei Rong, Zhen Yang, Jin Heok, Xu Hua, Valen.
Played some game with the other 5 girls. :) Was quite fun! I ate an extra 8 fries... D:

Today was okay lahs....
GAP was okay. Im in a group with Gen, Joelle, Weirong, Yohanes. Almost all I never group up with them before. We wasted a lot of time arguing about the characters and what sport to choose. LOL. I think our storyboard exceeded 10 secs. -.-

Yesterday was terrible. Especially at night.
I was on the laptop chionging the history project.
Then during the 1h 30min, dunno what that person was doing. When I ask him to paste his part on the google docs, he just posted crap. What was he doing during that 1h 30min?! In the end, Zhen Yang and I just did his part. Was damn pissed. At that same time, there was a lot of people asking me about projects and stuff. Maths, video, SIP.... I was just really stressed! STRESSED! Seriously. From this experience, I finally now know that live face-to-face is much more better than chatting online. You never know what the other person is actually doing on the other side.

Found some cuts in my mouth this morning. I dunno how they got there.
There were some skin (?) or something that I scrapped off since they were already like cut?
Bled a little. I rinsed my mouth and stared at it more.
I was considering the possibility of me gritting my teeth too hard while sleeping due to all that stress last night. Cuz gritting teeth while sleeping is usually due to stress... hmm....

~school's reopening... zzz

ruyi's b'dae

2010-06-23T20:08:00.001+08:00

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

I FINALLY FINISHED ALL MY INDIVIDUAL HOMEWORK.
MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

I finished my Chinese book review thingy just now. I planned yesterday.
The Geog essay I researched some stuff that I wanted and wrote it out in 1h 15min :D Not bad i think :)

Tomorrow's gonna be Ruyi's birthday!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY GAL :D

After finishing the CIP at CVPS, Grace, Leeting and I went to Compass Point.
We ate Burger King, affordable 4. :)
Then finally managed to persuade Ruyi to meet us at Sculpture Park.
We went to make the cake at Icing Room :P
The yellow deco was screwed because the icing melted I guess.
It was raining very HEAVILY. So our shoes all became wet when we reached Sculpture Park to meet Ruyi.
Went up to Ruyi's house and sang her birthday song! :)
The rest ate the cake except me. Kinda full.
We played cards, dai di and stress. The last part where we had like a tag team was damn funny. The last game was like prolonged till like 10 min cuz we kept stressing each other. Just when Grace and I gonna win, (last card no.9) Ruyi go and stress us! HAHAHAAH.
I think my reaction at being stressed was EPIC. I was like screaming. HAHAHA x)
Very fun! Should have more gatherings like this :) :)

^Ruyi's cake

Meanwhile, I am watching drama. :D

transcript...

2010-06-17T12:56:00.000+08:00

I went to Bryan's house yesterday for the History interview.
Ate lunch at e!hub with grace, felix and zhenyang before going. We ate at Mr Chicken Rice! :)
Felix and Zhenyang finished faster so they started pouring sauces into each other's plates. -.-
When Zhenyang went to the toilet, Grace, Felix and I were considering the possibility of Zhenyang being a bodyguard. We asked him to make stern faces when he came back. HAHAHA.

Bused to Bryan's house. We got off one stop later. Was kinda lost. Was still finding our way desperately when we suddenly heard Bryan's voice and found him. The situation was made worse with the rain. zzz.

Slacked for like 40min plus when we reached Bryan's house cuz we had to wait for his grandma.
Did the interview. Found it quite okay except for when the grandma doesn't really answer our questions.
My hand was very tired from holding the mouthpiece to record. Felix was busy typing away.
When we finally finished, we were given soybean milk to drink :D
Felix somehow spilled the drink on his laptop. The laptop started to make sizzling noises.
We tried to dry it by blowing the hair-dryer on his laptop. Then the laptop kinda went a bit too hot? Then we put it in front of the fan. We seemed like a hilarious bunch of people who have no clue about laptops.

Tried to do Geog concept map as well. It was okay.....
But Felix, Bryan and Zhenyang were glued to the computer while mapling. zzz
In the end, Grace did most of the work I think. haha.
I was on a smaller laptop chatting with ben and suting.
Suting told me that Orchard Road was flooded and I went internet to check it out. COOL.
Ben and Yoh kept interchanging cuz they were at ben's house doing hist project too.
Yoh typed some sick-sounding stuff and Ben kept declining it. HAHA.

Finally, went back home. Found out that we could take 89 straight from Bryan's house. zzz.
Took 89. Grace was late for her violin class. I guess. :P

At night, I went out with my parents and bro to rivervale plaza at like 8.15pm.
We went to mac's cuz there was free broadcasting there. I ate mcwings and read my chinese book :)
The people in mac's were like 'ohh'-ing everytime Chile missed.
Chile won with 1-0 in the end I think. :)
After that, my dad and I went to look for my mom and bro. Cannot find them.
Made our way back ourselves in the end. -.-
Watched GLEE :D The main character girl was kinda.... erm disgusting cuz she totally threw herself on the guy. Anyway, the blond cheer leading girl actually sings quite well. :)

Meanwhile, I am reading comics :D
Finished the transcript for the 30min long interview. Damn happy with myself.
Havent exactly finished my homework. Sianzzz.
Later gonna do SOME. I think. Hehe.
Funny how the laptop entices you to stay online when there is actually nothing to do ._.

~i want glee!

pics

2010-06-15T18:02:00.000+08:00

Here are some pictures that I have gotten from my cousin cuz I did not take any pictures then:

^The dumplings that my cousin made. We made a lot that day :)

^A cupcake that was not baked yet.

^A baked cupcake :D

^The whole collection of cupcakes :)

Today was kind of boring.

I wore my contacts instead of glasses as I suddenly felt like it. hehe.

Iris, Ivy and my auntie fetched my grandmother here and stopped by for a while.

Ivy and I were doing our homework while Iris was watching "Cloudy with a chance of meatball" which my father had rented. We did not really do anything together. Zzzz.

Am gonna meet up for history interview project tomorrow. Kinda nervous to interview Bryan's grandma.

Read manga today :) It is called V.B. Rose. Go read :) It is quite nice. It was really kinda fufilling to finish reading all the available chapters of a comic since I have been stopping halfway these days.

I read the Toto-chan book until page 100 yesterday!!!!!! ACHIEVEMENT :D

I also watched Fringe season 2. A good guy died. Sooooo saddd. He even had a wife and kids lehs. :'(

Currently a bit hooked on Plurk :P Just joined so still abit obsessed with it. My karma is so low - 11. D:

Facebook has been a bit full of activity today too. Glad since it has been a bit erm... deserted the past few days. hehe.

Well, I gonna go offline now :) Got a bunch of stuff waiting for me to start and finish on. I gotta feeling that my NYAA is gonna die. >.<

~bored

Chinese dumplings 粽子

2010-06-14T14:04:00.000+08:00

Hiie people!

Went to stay over at my cousin's house for 3 days 2 nights. They have been hooked up on a Taiwan drama called, "It started with a kiss". I kept reprimanding the main characters for being so dumb. Especially the girl.

Baked cupcakes. It ended up being really bitter. We guessed that it was because we used magarine instead of butter. It might have tasted nice if we used butter. :p

Played badminton with my cousin and auntie. Havent been playing for a while and I used a lot of strength. My hand started shivering afterwards. My arm still aches. The after effects of playing too hard.

On the last day, I went to my grandma's house to make chinese dumplings. It's the 3-dimensional triangle one wrapped in leaves. It seemed easy when my experienced grandma folded it swiftly. However, when we tried the real thing, we kinda sucked. I guess. I folded a few nice ones. I think that I folded about 11 in total. It seemed little compared to how much my aunties and mom folded.

We ate katong laksa that my aunt and 2nd eldest cousin bought after they went for facial. ._.
Stuck in my grandma's room all day with my 2 cousins and a laptop until they returned.
I kinda miss Xiaobao, the dog. :(

Meanwhile stuck at home. Watched a lot of movies that my dad rented. Lazy to type my verdict. So I'll just give ratings.

Planet 51: 3.5/5
Vampire's Assistant: 3/5
Cloudy with a chance of meatballs: 3.5/5
Whiteout: 3/5

By the way, I cut my fringe yesterday :)

~it's not what you are, it's who you are

Ben's bday

2010-06-09T10:35:00.000+08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BENEDICT!

Well, my post is abit late. But still....

We went to Tampines (again!) for his birthday. Bought him Adam Lambert disc (thank us! xD)
After walking outside the movie theater for like 30 min (zzz...), we finally decided to eat PastaMania. I ate Turkey Bacon Aglio. Was delicious! Poor Suting has to rush off. She ate the cheapest pasta too. We chatted about ostriches and guys???
After eating, we went to watch "Killers".

KILLERS

Storyline: Spencer is a secret agent who had killed 14 people..... Jen is an ordinary women who had just broke up..... They meet and fall in love. After 3 years of marriage, someone is after Spencer even though he has quit his previous job.

Verdict: I find the movie quite entertaining. I mean, the lines are catchy and there are no unneccessary moments. Even though there are a few... ahem moments. The movie is abit too short. I don't mind another 30 minutes of fun-filled laughter. Although the part where Jen's father and Spencer face each other could have been a bit more 'explained'? Like more fighting and action :D

Rating: 3.5/5 Who cares if the papers don't like it? I DO :D

Anyway, I have just read the simplified version of the book "The Mysterious Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde". It is a bit nice and interesting especially when you think about a person being 2. Like good VS evil kind of thing. Although I have to say that Dr Jekyll is stupid for trusting his silly medicine and for obtaining impure salt. After all, that makes all the difference. Even though, this book is quite a good read. It would actually be all right to skip the useless front part and just read on to when the main character finds out about Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. x)

~wasting time away

humans camp

2010-06-08T14:36:00.002+08:00

Just came back from Humanities Camp. :)
It was fun, in a way. Went back to where I had my p5 camp. Brings back fond memories.
I saw Rachel Lim tooooo :D :D :D
I travelled to a few places: NMS, Wallace Trail, Labrador Park, VivoCity/Harbourfront.
I was in Group 9. My group rocks :D
During the Open House, the dog and bone game made us seem like mad dogs. Hahaha. We were rushing to grab the duster and banged into each other. Especially the part where everybody rushed in. The duster got lost for a minute and we were puzzled. HAHAHAHAHAH.
My group won the best Geography work, for our directory cube in Vivocity. ^^
My group also won the 'treasure hunt' in NMS since Nic, Yohanes and I were trainee docents there once. Felt a bit guilty since we had the upper hand but happy at the same time. Our prize was some fake archaeology thingy where we try to find the treasure which is embedded in a rock/sand. -.-
There was one night where we had to chiong our forum thingy as well. THANKS TO MR CHIN WHO LENT US HIS MAC! :)

Overall, I think that the camp was fufilling in a sense. Had fun although it was a bit below my expectations. Bathing times were GREAT, as my group always left last but return first. So we got to bathe first. :P Exchanged contacts with my group 9 members as well. Will remember y'all!

GROUP 9

Anyway, I have just read the article, 1. "Singaporeans asked to chew on their manners" as well as 2. "Hypocrites! Aussie paper hits out at S'poreans for being rude".
1. http://www.smh.com.au/world/singaporeans-asked-to-chew-on-their-manners-20100530-wnjm.html
2. http://singaporeseen.stomp.com.sg/stomp/sgseen/what_bugs_me/387762/hypocrites_aussie_paper_hits_out_at_sporeans.html#commentSection
I felt that this was an interesting topic and posted my comment on website 2.

My comment:

Even though I agree with the fact that Ms Tamara Thiessen's report is probably biased and hypocritical, STOMPer Vassili still should not have used the case of "Racists in Austria VS Rude S'poreans". It is the wrong analogy to use.

It may be true that Singaporeans are materialistic, but to flame us as going to churches for networking is exaggerating and insulting to us. Has Ms Tamara Thiessen even considered about those who truly believe in their religion and go to the churches/temples out of good intentions? By posting such a comment, she is hurting millions of people out there. Talk about good manners.

Even so, I do agree that some Singaporeans do need to take note of their manners. We are indeed sometimes selfish and self-centered. This report would maybe do good to those people out there.

In the end, what I would like to say is that I would gladly appreciate it if news reporters/article writers think twice and fairly before writing such insulting articles.

I hope that you guys will be interested in this article and take a look. Comment fairly too! :)

chalet

2010-06-02T16:25:00.000+08:00

have been lagging for a few days after being hooked to the drama "You're Beautiful".

I shall talk about chalet. Won't give really specific details.
We BBQed on 2 nights. My cousin, brother, mum and I went to Wild Wild Wet. Haven't been there for like 6 years??? It was fun although walking on all those tiny little stones really hurt my feet.
Watched Resident Evil 1. It wasn't as nice as Resident Evil 2 I think. Looking forward to Resident Evil 3. :)
Chalet was fun although I think that we have kinda grown up and gotten tired of the Escape Theme Park and WWW. Anyway, there was like a huge sale there so I finally bought REAL FBTS! :D

There. That was short, huh?
Will be going off tomorrow to Labrador Adventure Park, where I had my first camp during primary 5. :)
I hope that we wont do anything strenuous.... I mean, it's a Humanities camp, right?

Yesterday was Nicole's birthday. So.....
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NICOLE!

We went to eat Pizza Hut at Tampines Mall and went to watch Prince of Persia.
I am lazy to write out summary so I will just give my opinions.

PRINCE OF PERSIA

Verdict: Everything was exciting. It was good and I actually half-closed my eyes when those weapons started flying around. It would have been a blast if it was in 3D. HOWEVER, the ending was a spoiler. The guy seriously shouldn't have turned back time. Even if you want to turn back time, then just turn a little only. Turn until the starting of the movie is abit errrr.... exxagerating and spoiler!

~going off AGAIN

last day

2010-05-27T18:28:00.000+08:00

TODAY'S THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL.

HOORAY. ;D

But then we have a lot of homework.... Especially Chinese.
We need to read a book AGAIN. Zzz...

Yesterday was the last day of electives. SAD.
We baked hot dog bun and cupcakes :D
The icing that we put on the cupcakes got squished halfway cuz they kept falling over in the box while we were going back. :(

I went to my auntie's house yesterday after electives.
Finally got Resident Evil 1 :P I started loving the show after watching Resident Evil 2 on Channel 5.
Gonna try and see if the starhub allows us to see all the channels today. It's eve of Vesak Day after all. XD
After watching some parts of "You're Beautiful", I went with my mum, aunt and cousin to some clinic specialised in acne problems.
We queued up. The queue was CRAZY. We did not know that it was the very popular doctor so we had to wait very long. Zzz.
We ate KFC. I ate Ole Ole Box. Was VERY NICE :D I was very hungry by then too. ><
Halfway through, I suddenly realised that I haven't done my zuo wen. So I quickly went to KFC again to plan out my zuowen. Whew!
Then walked around. After waiting for 2 hours, the number was only at 13!!!!
Our number was 47. It was going to be 10pm soon already!
So in the end we left for if we were to continue to persevere, we would have to wait until 1am.
WOW.
Went home and only slept at 12 am cuz I was chionging my zuowen. Just when I was about to sleep I suddenly realised that I havent print out TKAM essay. Another whew! >_<

Today was quite slack. I got the chinese book as mentioned above.
It's the continuation of Toto-Chan by the Window. I luvvvveeee that book! <3
The book looks hard to read but I read the first 4 pages and it was still manageable. :)
Got back our GPA and stuff.
I got 3.8!!!!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEE! :D
But my percentage only 78.83 I think...... Boohoo.
Still lost to Nicole. Her mark very pro sia. Just nice 80. haha.
Anyway, CONGRATS TO THOSE WHO SCORED HIGH MARKS AND JIAYOUS TO THOSE WHO DID NOT GET THE RESULT THAT THEY WISHED FOR! :D

Holidays, here I come! :)

~too much homework on me

elective

2010-05-25T20:38:00.000+08:00

Hey people.

Have completed 2 lessons of electives liaos.

Baked a few stuff:
Tuna Quiche (not nice)
Fruit Bun
Viennesse Biscuits
Pizza

We did the Quiche today. It was HORRIBLE.
It looks nice but it seriously tastes gross.
To me that is.
Guess that it because there was too much peas and carrots which I seriously loathe.
The biscuits were nice to make. :D
I am proud of the biscuit in the form of "S".
There was one part when Krystal said, "Wow. What a fat 's'."
Grace was like, "What?" (cuz she broke Krystal's biscuit just now)
I was laughing cuz it sounded wrong and Grace got it wrong. HAHAHAHA.

Looking forward to tmrw, the last lesson. GAH.
Will be making hotdog bun and cupcakes :D

But I would have rather chosen real 'cooking' than baking.
Playing with a stove is much more fun than playing with a automated oven.

Went back late after doing something.
Missed my Little Nyonya interesting part!!!!!
BOOHOO.

Haven done my chi. D:
Was busy organising the CIP thingy for CVPS. Very hectic.

level camp

2010-05-25T20:31:00.001+08:00

YES, I AM BACK. ALIVE.
haha. jkjk.
I will probably be typing about level camp stuff during this post.
Hmmm.... Got a lot of stuff to write about so I will keep it short.

Day1
Went to school. Gathered at Indoor Sports Hall.
Got our camp booklets and headed to Chai Chee Sunlove.
Got our level camp tee. The words behind just looks like a mass of dots.
Helped an elderly auntie clean her room.
Her room was actually quite clean though small.
I cleaned it with Zhenyang, Gerald, Xuhua and Yingxuan.
Think that we did a pretty good job. :)
Xuhua accidentally crushed a dead cockroach and it went 'crunch'.
Felt a bit regretful when we took the drink from the auntie as it might have been expensive to them.
Afterwards, we performed the Lemon Tree for the old folks.
Think we did quite okay lahs. Though we screwed up abit. ><
Went to the jetty. Took a bumboat. Strong wind~
Arrived at Pulau Ubin.
Pitched tents for the guys' sleeping area.
Bathing time was horrendous. The queue was crazy.
I had to wash my hair in a basin then shower in the shower area in 1 min. :(
Ate dinner, usual stuff.
Then slept with 5 other people.
I woke up every one hour. -.-

Day 2
Woke up and brushed teeth.
My shoes were wet cuz it rained last night and my shoes were outside the tent. :(
Ate breakfast in the conference room. Woohoo~
The instructors kept on telling funny jokes while we were waiting. HAHA.
Went for expedition.
Did outdoor cooking.
Starting the fire was very hard. zzz.
Maggie noodles dont really taste nice after you eat too much either.
Hot dogs are okay though.
Then, it started raining.
HEAVILY.
We had to wear ponchos and trek everywhere.....
My cap got ultra wet. D:
I was very irritated. But it was abit fun at the same time.
We FINALLY got back to the camping site.
Bathed. Crazy queues too.....
Ate dinner.
Then, did camp preperation for the performance that our groups, 3 and 4, need to do during campfire.
After that, we went for the confidence nightwalk.
I walked with Nicole and it wasn't scary. -.-
Went to sleep finally. Had difficulty though.
The end of my sleeping bag was wet and I could not stretch out my legs. grr.

Day 3
Had good news.
We were gonna sleep in chalets that day.
According to our CLASS :D
Yippee.
We did high and low elements today.
Low elements were cool. It was fun.
Learnt a lot about teamwork here.
High elements was scary.
I went up there and my legs were practically shaking like hell.
I walked on a brigde which is a few wood planks held together by a string.
Was really petrifying.
I walked too fast and tripped.
Hit near my shin. Was damn painful.
I was really scared and thought that I was going to fall off.
I heard the instructor in charge shouting, "Eh! You better get up if not I need to go up there to rescue you!"
How great.
I stood up and finally finished it shakily.
I finally falled off and completed everything.
YAY. :D
We did the rafting then.
The raft was epic fail and it sunk.
But I think that our group showed teamwork here. :)
After that, we had our campfire.
We did our dance. Was very crammed.
Was very tired near the end of the campfire.
Went back to chalet and chatted with classmates before sleeping.

Day 4
That day was EPIC.
We were supposed to wake up and get ready and wait for our teacher at 7.30am.
Guess what?
We overslept and woke up at 7.30 on the dot when the instructor came in and woke us up.
HAHAHAHAHA.
Epic sia.
We rushed and everything.
Did not even brush our teeth. Gah.
Then.... after hearing 'stories', I found it funny that we woke up late.
1. Joelle woke up early. She brushed teeth, etc. She did not know what was the time so she just lazed around. Then I said that she had a watch. She said that it was only for show and that it had actually stopped already. -.-
2. Pamela actually heard the alarm clock. She stopped it and went back to sleep. -.-
I can only laugh about it. haha.
Took the boat back to Singapore.
Ate mac's with most of the kellyxians.
Finally....
HOME SWEET HOME.

Tomorrow's the level camp.....
Haiz.... 4 days away from Singapore.
Well, the campsite is in Pulau Ubin.
Quite far away and I think that theres no network there.
SAD.
I am kinda looking forward and yet not at the same time...
Especially after thinking of all the hardships that I will have to go through!
And 3 performances to do!
GAH.
But I am looking forward to the games and fun!
It has been like around 3 years since my last camp after all. :)
I have to bring like luggages around tmrw! D:

Anyway, my grades are okay. In fact great 8D
If my Chinese get A, then my GPA will be 3.8 if I am not wrong.

Actually, all of the ppl's speeches were nice today. I hope mine is good enough too. ><

After school, I went to KFC with Nic g, Pam, Ben, Weirong and Xuhua.
I ordered Zinger meal with fries :P
While eating, we were laughing for weird matters.
There was this guy opposite us that kept on shooting pieces of ice towards us.
Nicole was extremely annoyed and just bursted out at him. HAHAHA.
Good one nic ;D
Ben had this stain on his mouth. We had to tell him to clean it off cuz he doesn't know.
Then it was Xuhua's turn to have a stain. He knows but still leaves it on.
While drinking our drinks, we discussed some err-hum stuff about Weirong.
HAHAHA. Weirong was like..... stuck!

~the days are rushing by..... level camp.....

Mother's day

2010-05-10T18:30:00.003+08:00

I forgot to say that after the movie, I met up with my parents and brother at Swensons. I think that I queued for about 40 mins. Very long! After that, I went to the icing room to deco my cake. :D
Below are some photos that I have forgotten to post on the previous one regarding my birthday:

^The flower that my brother gave me.

^My brother made this cake at icing room.

^Cake that I made. ^^

^Our cakes side by side. See the diff? XP

Anyway,
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
Thank you to all the mothers who have worked hard and asked for nothing in return. Your love and faithfulness is definitely something that we have to learn from. You give and give, yet ask for nothing. Such a powerful motherly love can only be possessed by you, only you. I thank you for such many years for meticulous care. I will do the same for you in the future.
We did went to celebrate mother's day by eating a buffet at Lion Hotel's Cafe. The perannakan style buffet was delicious! Laksa, mee siam, nasi lemak, chicken wings, popiah..... I want to go there again!!! ^^

At the same day (^above), I went with my cousins and auntie to shop after that. We went to shop around Lion Hotel and I bought gifts for my mum. We also went to Parkway Parade after that. :D Then from there, they sent me to school for EDS Nite. :)

EDS Nite was FUN! :) The concert was really very very entertaining. :P Though the dances started to get boring one after the other. The drama's performances were funny!
Halfway through the year 3 dances I think, there was a silent part where no music was played. A baby started crying and a cellphone rang THREE times! People were laughing! I felt very annoyed. The baby obviously wasn't at fault. The cell phone should have been switched off! The audience also lacked proper etiquette! They shouldn't have laughed.
Overall, the performance was nice. We also took a lot of pictures! ^^

~lalalalala

30 April

2010-05-05T16:42:00.000+08:00

Well, basically I am in the computer lab in school now and nobody's caring that everyone's slacking away playing on computers and here am I blogging away! :)

Erm, lemme talk about by birthday first! :D mwahahahahaha.
That day, when most of the people, actually only UG, were standing under the hot sun perspiring away, I was at home sleeping soundly. My birthday rocks lah! haha
Then, I woke up and erm, ate breakfast??? LOL. Then, I went to..... play computer! Well, I was only just facebooking actually.
Then, called people frantically and asked if they wanted to go see Ironman. I think that I wasted the most amount of money calling on that day. boohoo.
Then, FINALLY confirmed and I went to bathe and get ready.
Then did NYAA on mrt :D
Went to meet up with the others at plaza sing. They actually walked past me and I had to shout to them lor.
Then bought tickets. We changed the timing to 3.30pm because there weren't enough tickets for us. We had 11 people in total XD That was alot. :) We struggled to get the change right for the person at the counter. We were short of 30 dollars and were asking people to 'donate' when Valen took out a 50 dollar note. -.- should have taken that out earlier????
Afterwards, we went to the food court to eat lunch and slacked there for like 1hour. ^^
I beat zhenyang in toilet roll with a record of like 2.16 seconds i think :D :D :D happy~
Valen was like baffled and did not believe that 2 seconds can. I think that the paper kept tearing off when I pulled it because I used too much strength :P
Then Nic w came and Suting soon came too.
Went to Yamaha and like hung around there for quite a while.
I saw that the staff there were getting pissed at us. So I kinda 'herd' the other kellyxians out. Was having some kind of trouble with Pamela and Benedict because they were 'attracted' to the grand pianos and musical stuff.
Finally, it was time for us to go to the cinema :)
When the others were buying popcorn, Valen was calculating his money because the others were supposed to pay him. Then he was there fussing about the 6 dollars that was missing. Turns out the counter had some leftover just now and I had already returned thr 6 dollars to him before at the counter just now. grr -.-
The movie started. Pamela and Valen were snatching his phone before the movie started. -_-
Ben, who was sitting beside me, kept talking and commenting when the movie first started. -,-
Grace asked me what was happening halfway through the show. haha.
So people, here's the review:

IRON MAN 2

Storyline: Basically, Iron man comes back! Haha. After announcing to the world that he is Iron man, Tony Stark is being judged and decided on as to whether he should hand over his 'weapon' to the US government. Tony claims that the weapon is top secret and only he has it. No one would have it and even if they should, it would only happen 20 years later. Turns out someone does have it and intends to use for revenge against Tony Stark. And, Tony discovers that his continuous use of the "circular light thingy" is actually killing him slowly. Another woman (Scarlet Johannsan) enters Tony's life. She turns out to be a undercover 'agent' who works in the company of the guy with an eye patch and eventually helps Tony Stark.
Verdict: This is not an extremely nice movie, yet not an extremely lousy movie. The humour is nice. They should focus abit more on Tony finding a way to cure himself. Ms Potts should just break up with Tony. And they should replace Robert Downey Jr. with some other more handsome guy.

~i miss it

b'day

2010-04-30T09:59:00.000+08:00

Yesterday was GREAT!
Well, today will be great too! ^^

I have to admit, although when we are like preparing for the birthdays and trying to appear like we forget, we think we seem kinda obvious. But seriously, YOU GUYS WERE LIKE REAL GOOD AT FAKING. Except for the last part maybe, when you all were screaming cake! cake! That kinda gave the game away. xP

Kellyxians bought the cake for me. Well, technically it was Grace. Haha, thanks! :D Bo Ning I think was kinda shocked and did not know how to react to the overwhelming response. >< The cake was seriously very nice! Not too chocolatey! And it was still kinda cold! Haha, Boning was torn between his ramen noodles and cake!!! Thank you for planning this!!!!! You all ROCK! :D (go facebook to see the pic)

Then, cuz we started the cake late, most of us were late. Leelaoshi was erm... angry??? SORRY TO ALL THOSE WHO WERE LATE BECAUSE OF THE CAKE CUTTING!!! Really sorry!!!! >< You all did it cuz of Boning and me but was late and got scolded! Sorry!

After lesson, Zhenyang and Felix gave me 2 voodoo dolls which help me in career/studies and love(???). Haha. Thanks to the both of you! Then Nicole, Grace, Joelle and a few other gals (cant rmb ur names, sry!) gave me a present. All the girls AND ben (extra!!!) also wrote messages for me! (why everyone says that Im slow? haha) Thanks!!!!! I din open the present until I got home :D The present is so COOL. I am gonna put more pics in the flipping thingy. ;) Thanks a bunch!!!!!!!

You all have made this day special for me!!! Once again, thanks a lot!!! :D
Later Im gonna meet up with some kellyxians to watch Iron Man 2!!! woohoo! Then gonna eat dinner with my parents maybe at Swensons. And gonna use the voucher which I got from Mingyu by buying his charity thingy! haha. :D

~the 14th bd'day is awesome

sick

2010-04-27T12:18:00.000+08:00

Hello people.
Gah. Was sick for around 3 days. Got flu and cough and stuff. Went to see the doctor yesterday. Ate medicine. Am feeling so much better. At least I dont have a blocked nose now ^.^
On friday, I went to see a skin doctor to 'get treatment' for my acne and stuff. Received a few medicine, cream, lotion to put on my face. Takes really long to put all that layers of stuff on me. haha.
Tomorrow have maths common test. boohoo.... So sad. I missed science practical! :( Gwar!
Have to hand up geog on Thursday. Damn chiong.
Watched a few movies that I rented on Saturday and Sunday.

FANTASTIC MR. FOX

Storyline: I am pretty sure that I don't need to explain the storyline. If you do not know what happens, read Roald Dahl's book. XD

Verdict: Was actually pretty boring. The animations are also kinda.... fake? There was a very limited range of music and sounds too. Not exactly funny or nice or anything. Just a pretty good way to pass time if you ask me.

Rating: 2.5/5

NEW MOON

Storyline: Well, Edward leaves Bella due to the fact that Carlisle and the others are getting abit too young for their age. Bella is devastated and believes that Edward left because he does not love her. Bella goes into zombie-depression mode and emo-s for 3-4 months. She gets better when she starts to hang out with Jacob. And surprise! Jacob is a werewolf! Woof woof! Then Alice comes back because she misunderstood Bella's cliff diving plan as suicide. Edward thinks that Bella is dead and want to ask the Volturi to kill him too. Thus begins the journey where Bella races against time to save Edward.

Verdict: Well. it is not exactly a nice movie again. It wasn't any better than the first and they should really just stop shooting the continuation of this silly series which does not turn out good as a movie. At least let me have fond memories of it as a wonderful book. And I really hate the part where the camera just keeps spinning round and round, showing the months go by. Waste of time, seriously. AND. Bella should really just choose Jacob. He looks so much better than Edward with his shirt off.

Rating: 3/5

CHANGELING

Storyline: It was in the 1900s. Christine Collins arrives home from work only to find out that her son, Walter Collins, is missing. She gets help from the corrupted Los Angelos Police Department. 2 weeks later, they claim that they found her son. She cries tears of joy and hurries to pick up her son. However, the boy who claims that he is Walter Collins, is not her son. She finds more and more evidence supporting her stand. The police gets irritated as she is ruining the Police department's reputation. They put Christine in a asylum under code 12, where all the other women who have tried to stand up against the police are kept to be silenced. As she tries to find her son, more startling mysteries are uncovered.

Verdict: Love the movie! Angelina's potrayal as a mother is really convincing. Though her lips are abit.... weird and it does not fit in the image of a frail and desperate mother. They only work when she is acting as a sexy hot lady in an action packed movie I guess. The starting of the movie is a bit draggy as well. The whole movie took about 2h 30 min. If you don't mind sitting through the boring start, then you will be rewarded by the touching and amazing ending.

Rating: 4/5

Gonna go back to school tomorrow. Hopefully there isn't too many stuff to be done. ><

~drowsy due to medicine

science

2010-04-22T17:36:00.004+08:00

Had some Cmps stuff yesterday at Pei Hwa Prestabryian (?) Pri Sch yesterday.
We ogranised booths with games and stuff.
The primary school kids were so cute!
One of them actually gt her game stopped halfway but she wanted to continue. She asked me if we were here until friday. But sadly no. D:
We also had NAPFA yesterday. I think that we improved :D

Today's science lesson was SO FUNNY!
Mdm rozana wanted to set some ground rules for the topic that shes gonna teach next: sexual reproduction.
everyone started laughing and stuff.
Mdm roz made many funny comments and that set us off.
Her version of sex education when she was young:
Once upon a time, (mdm) roz, a primary school kid, was feeling bored. She picked up an encyclopedia that belonged to her father. She started flipping and flipping. She fumbled around and played with the pages of the book. Suddenly, she came across something........ a picture of a........... NAKED MAN. She stared agape. There was a (picture of a) man in front of her. Naked. To make things worse, it was not a drawing but a picture. She stared, shocked. (mdm)Roz was bewildered. She could not believe her eyes. Wait. If there is a picture of a naked man....... then there must be a picture of a naked woman! She flipped the pages hurriedly and she found it. OMG! Wait again. If there is a picture of a man and a picture of a woman..... then there must be a picture of a man AND women! She scanned through the pages and voila! She really did find it. And that was how Mdm Roz went through her sex education.
Haha. The actual version is obviously NOT like that. The above is just a funnier one.
The way mdm roz talked about it was hilarious! Her big eyes were like popping out dramatically when she was narrating it too! HAHAHAH. XD

if you wanna say something, say it in front of me and dun talk behind my back.

CLEO by Helen Brown

Storyline: A woman who loses her eldest son is devastated. Her life seems to have no meaning. Just then, a tiny little black cat arrived. She is shocked for the cat was actually for her dead son. He had chosen the cat himself... before he died. Seeing her younger son smile for the first time after his brother's death, the women reluctantly takes in the cat, not knowing that the cat would help in the process of rebuilding her family and life.

Verdict: An okay book which is a good read. It is touching. As the author narrates out signficant incidents and heart-breaking moments, you would definitely be able to connect with her. The cat's death is also heart-rendering and I almost cried. I have a feeling that Yuan Wen will like this cat book!(x

HCL was scary today. leelaoshi was so mad at us because of our chi spelling. 90% of us failed. terribly.

~take a deep breath and just do it.

fusion

2010-04-14T21:57:00.000+08:00

today was the big day. fusion.
just in case for those who do not know, fusion is something like a competition where you can sing, dance or act.
well, today went kinda well i guess.

chiong-ed maths graph assignment during CME. the teacher was damn funny in her way of speaking about events. luv this CME teacher. :D then, had recess and stuff. maths was boring as usual. I got even less marks than what I did in the previous test. I got 5/12. D: For the other test, I got 15/17 :D heehee. happy~

after that, the fire alarm rang!!!! :D :D :D :D everyone immediately stood up and cheered! haha. the drill has totally failed in its objective: instil a sense of urgency in us when all we care about is missing lessons. BUT. we were missing LA!!!! gah. i would rather miss history than LA. LA rocks more than history. kinda i guess. Anyway, I improved in LA for my compre and summary. very happy~ :)

so, we stood in the hot sun. so unfortunate. we waited and waited. listened to teacher say how long did each level settle down. year 2 got 10mins 40+sec i think. it is actually kinda slow lahs. I mean, in pri sch, we can come down in like 5mins! xD then, made our way back after much delay. after that, I kinda wanted lessons in the so-much-more comfortable classroom rather than climbing 6 storeys down and up and stand in the sun just to miss lessons. :P

fusion was okayyyyyyy.
it was kinda fun actually. nic decided to pon SMO. krys and I then rehearsed. at first we were all kinda shy i guess. no one really dare to sing out loud. by singing around 6 times, we managed to confirm the parts that we were taking and stuff. then for the next 5 repeats, we corrected tunes, pronounciation and stuff. :D i think after that we practised about 5 times. WOW. that's a lot of times. like almost 20 lehs. so pro eh. 8D
but we were there like 1h30min just singing. then, we went and disturb gen's grp. hehe.
i received and missed calls made by the person-in-charge. Went to music prac room 2 and saw ppl inside. So went out then the person call us into music prac room 3 to 'warm-up'.
by then I was like damn nervous sia.
sang for a while. kept jumping whenever we heard the door open. haha. xP
then gen and suting came. we sang to them to 'get the feel of it'. was quite okay i guess. not as scary as i thought :D then practised somemore. now we were more 'open'. :)
then gen's grp members came and practised and more practice.
finally, it was our turn. we went into the room. was damn cold. kinda added on to the nervousness. cracked some jokes to soothe the nerves. haha. then we sang. there were some mistakes along the way but overall, I would think it was okay lahs. :D for a last min rehearsal, it would not score too bad. :D
thanks to nic and krys who joined me on fusion! had a great time! :D

gah. tomorrow got NAPFA, Malay and Chinese test. Haven't learnt chi yet..... sian. recalled last time during pri sch also never learn. always last min chiong one. haha. hope I wont fail sia. downloading the ipod software. so slow~ hmph. just finished FPS. the last prob looks weird. but wadeva. xD

~i have never felt this light-hearted before

CAF

2010-04-13T18:17:00.001+08:00

Yo people! sorry for lack of posts. kinda lazy these days to post regularly.
Firstly, I will talk about my first day of CS CCA.
It was kinda fun yet awkward. I guess it is because I do not know anyone there except Tong Lin. Made a few friends. When we were saying rao kou ling I was so lost.
We then had to group up to perform a short skit. Truthfully speaking, I feel that it was failure and the people that I was grouped up with were kinda not serious. So it turned out kinda.... weird I guess.
After that was CAF. Did maths hmwk while waiting for the guides.
Then Nic, Gen, Grace and Krystal came. Bought some stuff and ate. Accompanied Krystal to wait for her father. Afterwards, we made our way up to Arts Room.
The performance was kinda boring at the starting. It was partially because the mic was spoiled so we can't exactly hear properly. During the interval, we tried to play with Ms Kheng's son but he ignored us and wanted to go back home. haha. Ms Kheng's son is SO CUTE. :D
The second half after the interval was DAMN FUNNY LAHS. BoNing acted in a skit and he had to hit his head several, in fact many times. Haha. Poor thing. Then there was a play. There was this man whose wife and daughter died in a car crash. His friend went to encourage him to move on with life. There was this particular part when the friend handed a mic to the man. He made the action seem so emotional and dramatic that we all thought that the 'thing' was something that was impt and was going to motivate him. Turns out it was a mic! We were all laughing! HAHAH. Then, when the man imagined seeing his wife and daughter, one of the 'wife' 's spaghetti stripe of her dress dropped. We were like all talking about it. Then halfway through the emotional part, the daughter helped the 'mother' put back the stripe! HAHAHAH. EPIC SIA.
During the play, I actually received 4 messages from Ms Kheng. 3 were empty and 1 was attached with a multimedia file. I replied, asking why she was sending me so many msg. She replied, 'Sorry. It must be my son.' HAHAHA. It was so funny and ironic because just a moment ago, her son dao me! haha. XD

Currently have a lot of projects going on. Geog and stuff. GAH. Have to study malay too! and FPS!!!!!!! D:
Feel like just breaking down! ><

[edited]
For electives, I got into Culinary! I was like going in at 6.10pm and there were quite a lot of vacancies. Was torn between culinary and cartoon. Then since a lot of people go culinary, I went too :D
Poor Nicole g. She had no choice but to go Maths elective. haha. Jiayous and try to survive. Dont worry 'cause you got Ying Xuan. ;P

reptile

2010-04-08T17:18:00.000+08:00

OMG. when I was on the 158 bus making my way back home, guess what I saw???
A REPTILE WHICH LOOKS LIKE A TINY CROCODILE SWIMMING IN THE SMELLY CANAL NEAR MACS.
So cool right?!!!!!! I really regret not getting down the bus to take a picture of it. I was so shocked to that THING! I am not sure what it was but I am pretty sure that it was a reptile, something like a lizard, except bigger. Maybe as big as you hand to your elbow. WOW WOW WOW.
I still remember when I came from softball with Jing Wen and Nicole I think. We were passing the bridge when we saw a reptile in the big canal. It was soooooo cool! When we went down to get a closer look, it disappeared. We tried ways to make it appear by throwing rocks, but it didn't.
It is SO COOL. Never knew that Singapore could be full of small surprises like that! :D

Today was fun. We had literary circle and socratic discussion.
Socratic discussion was funny. At the starting, people were shy and did not dare to voice out comments. But afterwards, objections and views started pouring out. I was in the Farquhar team. It was also especially funny when a few people came up at the same time to take a stick. Haha. When we used the example of an infant as Singapore, people said that it was digression. I was like, "It is not digression! It is an example!!!" HAHA.
Literary circle was okay. We first had the expert group. Xuhua and Shinmin were summarizers too. They were obviously talking about something else. It was only at the later part then they contribute. Though quite little. ><
When we were at out individual groups, I said my summary. Jin Heok was complaining, "Eh, you are saying all our points already leh." HAHA. When I FINALLY finished my summary, they clapped. Guess it was because of the detailed summary.
When Jin Heok said his part, Suting kept pretending to be bored. haha.
When it was Alvin's turn, he said a whole bunch of stuff. Very long. When he finally finished one part of his 'talk', we asked where he was at. He had only said TWO PARAGRAPHS. LOL.
It was Suting's turn, she was an illustrator. She drew stickmen as characters. I was asking, why was Boo smiling. haha. Then, she explained about the picture. At the end of it, I said, "Your signature is very nice." HAHA. XP
Then it was Krystal. We kinda flipped to page after page. And we discussed.
Then it was Nicole w. She was the Question Director. She asked a few pretty good questions. :D We answered some and kinda side tracked I guess. :P

Well, today went kinda well. :) Trying to choose which LA artefact im gonna do. And fusion!!!!!! Gah.

~life is full of surprises

movies

2010-04-05T21:07:00.000+08:00

CLASH OF THE TITANS 3D

On Good Friday, I went to watch Clash of the Titans with my parents :)

Storyline: Well, kinda like Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief, the main motivation that keeps the protagonist going is his rage for revenge. Perseus fights demons and creatures from the netherworld (Medusa). Eventually, he falls in love like any other hero.

Verdict: Well, nice effects and all but the 3D was not 3D enough. It should be really POPPED OUT. I guess it is cause it was a 2D-convert-3D movie. But still... And the storyline just isn't novel enough. But the fighting moments helped it lift the mark up. The pretty women in it helped too. x) The comedic moments in it livened the movie up. The irony in it too...(scorpian king trying to kill the giant scropian.... take that.)

Rating: 3.5/5 An okay movie which will set your heart pumping.

THE TIME TRAVELLER'S WIFE

Watched it because my father rented the disc. :D

Storyline: Henry met Clare when she was just 6 and when Henry was 40+. Now, Henry, 20+, is meeting Clare, 20+, for the first time. Amzing huh? Well, Henry is a time traveller. He travels involuntarily and whenever he does, he arrives at his destination naked as he does not get to bring his clothed along. (wow.) The time travelling tests the couple's love as Clare risks miscarriage due to the time travelling child. Another horrible truth dawns upon Henry as well....

Verdict: Wonderful movie. Absolutely wonderful. The actor and actress (Henry and Clare) should be given an award for this. They had so much chemistry and the acting was just great! :) Luv them. The touching storyline is sure to break your heart. You will definitely want to read the book after this! (I just reserved it! xD)

Rating: 4/5 A great movie! Must-watch! :)

14 BLADES

My dad rented the disc. :D

Storyline: China in the olden times. There is a plan to throw the country into chaos. Qinglong, a skilled swordsman who uses the legendary 14 blades, is determined to stop the plan.

Verdict: The storyline about China and blah blah is kinda hard to get with so many names like Prince Qing and stuff. The fighting is exciting, as usual. Qiyuwu looks kinda... dumb? The protagonist is too short. >< Overall, the story is okay. I like the ending. Partially because it is real and the protagonist dies~ :D Call me sadist or whatever but then the movie really faces reality. ^^

Rating: 3.5/5 Not a bad watch.

Am now currently waiting to watch Obsessed as well as my the book, The Time Traveller's Wife :D

random stuff :D

2010-04-05T20:37:00.000+08:00

Yo people. Sorry I haven been posting for a while. Have been having a lot of projects streaming in endlessly.
--
1 April was April Fool's Day, as well as Kaleidoscope 2010 for Dunman High School. We had lots of fun, except maybe for the starting ceremony when the hot blazing sun was aiming straight at us. Boo D: We had a fan as a souvenir. It really came in handy. Afterwards, we went to attend a 'course' for figurine making.
I made the little chinese/korean doll below wearing a chi costume/kimono. I have no idea because she looks like she belongs to both. Maybe a hybrid...?
I also went to play a game for 50 cents. I got the prize and it was a yoyo balloon. Well, even though it is not really worth it, it is still worth the experience. Though I got it on the first try so it wasn't much of an experience. >< It was still fun to bounce the balloon along as I walk :)

--
When I went to my grandma's house on Saturday, I took some random pictures in the taxi. Seemed quite nice. I guess. :D

--
Yesterday, we celebrated my grandma's birthday. It was really fun! We ate chap chey, curry with chicken, noodles, fishballs, hotdogs with tomatoes, prawns with capsicans and soup. It was all very delicious! We had dessert and finally, the birthday cake! It was half-frozen durian which tasted like ice-cream!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GRANDMA! ^^

kong hwa!

2010-03-30T17:36:00.001+08:00

Today was still okay okay.
I am very very very happy with my Hist SEQ marks 8D
Hehe. Got full marks. YAY. I was damn scared that I would fail. Hahas. But cannot get too confident and complacent. Must work hard for the next one too!!!!!!

Today, instead of Kong Hwa, we went to Meridian. For a primary school, it is quite cool and nice. It is very big. I think bigger than Compassvale Pri Sch. :) Got a buddy. Truthfully speaking, my buddy is not that smart. But must guide her along!!! x) But I still miss my Kong Hwa buddies. I want Kong Hwaaaaaaaaa~!

Anyway, our class seems to be in the "Fusion mood". Haha. Everyone is like, 'wanna join fusion?'. Including me :D I currently asking some ppl.... Trying hard to persuade someone to join me.... Nicole g is joining me ;D Getting a girl would be nice so that choosing songs wont be so difficult. :)

Now TRYING to do the History article on the founding of Singapore. GAH. Anyway, trying out a new game these days, called "Hotel City" on FB. Seems okay except the fact that I have to keep cleaning the rooms becuz of infestation.....

Anyway, I bought 2 books! Actually it was my mother who bought them for me hehe. >< They are "Cleo" and "Letters from an unknown chinese mother". I have finished reading Cleo. It was nice. Will do a book review about it someday....

Tomorrow gonna do CME... :(

~hoping it will come true

Sports meet

2010-03-30T17:26:00.003+08:00

Sports meet was kinda boring at the starting.
Krystal and I were teasing Nic w about Miss Chan's exaggerated voice and pronounciations.
She kept emphasising on EVERY word. Especially the last one. Like, "All athletes, please proceed to the tent near the ending point NOW. IMMEDIATELY."
italics: emphasised
cap: emphasised ALOT
Haha, Nic w was like grumbling all the way. Krys and her also complained about the poor selection of songs and the fact that Lady Gaga songs were being played.
After about 1h30min, it started raining. Miss Chan made us annoyed again by asking us to cheer the rain away. GAH. When it started raining AGAIN, around 1h later, she asked everyone to cheer the rain away, again.
During the second rain, there was actually a race going on. There was one part when a DHS athlete overtook a Chung Cheng athlete. We were cheering madly! Afterwards, I realised that that person was YUPING. I did not even know that she was participating lor!!!!!!
There was one part that was frustrating. B girls ran for the 4x400m relay. One of the girls accidentally dropped the baton. But they still struggled on and came in first. However, because of the fact that they dropped the baton, they were disqualified and thus, came in 4th in the end. I was furious! They showed the Olympian spirit and kept on running. WHY SHOULD THEY BE DISQUALIFIED? Even though I know that that is the rule, I still cannot help but feel angry.

After the sports meet, yuping, vivianne, grace, maranda and I went to KFC at Compass Point to eat. Kinda like a gathering. :) Actually wanted to have it with Chung Cheng ppl but they went already. D:

~if only we could hold it together

EARTH hour

2010-03-26T00:42:00.002+08:00

Science presentation: Turned out quite okay. In fact, better than what I expected :) Heehee.

Today, Suting, Nic w, Valen, Bryan and I participated in some Earth Hour program.
They orginally stated clearly in BLACK AND WHITE that it was a CLUEDO game.
Turns out that it was an AMAZING race with little cluedo stuff in it. LOL.

Anyway, we were at the LT2 and then realised that the girl from 2B who was supposed to join us ended up joining her own class, we decided to call Valen since he wanted to come actually. So we called him and then he joined. Suting, Nic w and I were in group K1 and Valen and Bryan were in group K2 as we were supposed to bond with the year 1s. So we mixed with the year 1K. Our juniors! :)

The 'briefing' and dividing of groups took like 1h 30mins. We were there practically wasting time as they tried to set up AV stuff. There was a video "Save the environment" which they showed us which was crappy. Like seriously. But really funny. Suting and I were singing all the way to annoy Nic. Hahas. So when we started, we were supposed to find out who killed Mother Earth. ._. Something like cluedo, except that it was more of physical than mental usage.

The first station was damn funny. We were like supposed to have something like Taboo. So after we figure out the word, we will tell them to Suting and a yr1 and they would get some letters from a box and try to make the words out. I lent the facil in charge there my watch. Then, we did the guessing really quickly. And we were like, "Can we help them?" "No! They are already cheating! See I let them cheat until like that already!" (Suting was taking all the letters up and flipping them over. She was supposed to take a handful, take what she need, put them back, then take again.) "But then we wanna help!" "Cannot!" Then I said, "Whatever," and started helping. HAHAHAH. The facil was like what whatever! later I deduct ur hints! Everyone laughed. Then Suting proceeded to take the box to invert the whole thing so the letters would all come out. The facil shouted, "Noooo! Thats cheating!" and stopped us. D: then, we finally finished. The facil was asking the other facil, "How ah? They cheat lehs. A lot some more." >< then he took out my watch. I took it back and said, "Aiya, never mind lahs." "But you all cheated!" "This watch is already enough for one hint lehs!" HAHA. In the end, we still got all the hints :D

The rest of the stations were ok-ok. One station was quite interesting also. The Blindfolded Throwing Something. Nicole W got chosen to be blind folded in the end. Through FAIR circumstances. Haha. Suting was like "YAY!" I became her 'eyes' and was supposed to direct her. She would put up like cans, plastic bottles and papers and throw them into the respective boxes to recycle them. The starting was pretty good but I got kinda fed up in the end. Some incidents....
Nic threw the bottle to Suting. The plastic bottle hit Suting on her forehead before bouncing back into the box. OUCH.
I wanted to say left but said right. Then when I say turn left, Nicole turned too left and hit the whiteboard.
Nicole picked up a can. She could not see the facil in front of her and wanted to throw. Lucky for the facil she got away! >)
I got really fed up and pointed to the ground and kept saying "here here here" to tell her where the stuff were. Nic was like, "Where's here?!" HAHAH. xD

Our facil was also very funny. I think he was from China so his Eng was not very good like in terms of pronounciation. But he was very funny. Haha. Especially the way he runs. He would purposely run from left to right and right to left. Kinda like roller blading. LOL. Dunno how he does it.

In the end, when we got back and finished, turns out that we have to collate answers with Valen's group, K2. And they have not come yet. They very slooooowwwww. Haha. While waiting, we traded info with 2L. Hehe. And played building blocks on Nic's phone. Suting was pestering me and caused blocks to fall down. Haha. And we waited impatiently for K2.

^The starting in LT2 where we wasted 1h 30min

^Hints and the list

^Light bulb made from plasticine. It was actually what we did for one of the stations.

^One game made use of these rings made of newspaper. At the end of the game, we made this Olympic thingy for fun. :P

^Suting cancelled suspects and stuff for the game.

^I was being totally random and took this. Notice the second and min are the same x)

^ Us!!!! :D Valen took this picture for us. He was laughing when he wanted to take the picture. dunno why. We posed for damn long and Valen was still laughing! Then when I saw him laughing until so funny, I started laughing too. I laughed until cheeks hurt. xD

After the picture was taken, I zoomed for Suting and showed her that in this pic, her eyes looked weird. She said, "Nooooo! Let's take again!" Nic and I protested, "Noooooo!" I did not want to pose again for a photographer like Valen who keeps laughing. x)

There is no school tomorrow!!!! YAY! But there is the sports meet gah. We have to go Bedok Stadium...

Haiz. A day full of SUNSHINE. GAH. will be sweating like mad....

~~Anyway......Ying Xuan, JIAYOUS! :D~~
[edited] Did not know that Ying Xuan did not participate. haha.

~save the earth

kong hwa

2010-03-24T18:24:00.003+08:00

Yo people!

Went to Kong Hwa yesterday for Star Buddy program. It was VERY VERY NICE. AND AMAZING :D The kids there are SOOOOOOOOOO CUTE :) I cant imagine myself being that small once. We were teaching the primary fives. The students seemed a bit rowdy at first but after getting to know them, we realised that they were actually really just being KIDS. They were nice too. We played heart attack first for icebreakers. Yuan Wen was talking, got distracted and got hit. Haha. x)

Yuan Wen and I got 3 buddies. Sharing :P They were all boys: Wei Qi (i think), Qiong Wun, Yi Heng. They were reeeeeaaaaaalllllllllllyyyyy cute~! I was kinda 'attached' to Qiong Wun I guess. I 'tutored' him for maths and left Yuan Wen to the other 2 boys. Sorry, Yuan Wen!!!! >< I dunno why but then Yuan Wen made a lot of mistakes while teaching maths. In the end, the students were right while she was wrong. HAHAHAH. She was like, "Oh! Really ah?" Hahas. While they were doing their math, I went around looking at other people's buddies. Then I realised that got English!!!!!

So, after the math, we went on to do Grammar with them. They were really quite cute when they dunno how to do. Qiong Wun was especially hardworking, surprisingly. He seemed so slack at first when I saw him but after teaching him (he called me 'teacher'! xD), I realised that he was the MOST hardworking amongst all 3 of them I think. WOW.

Too bad we are only going for one more time, next week.... I WILL MISS THEM!!!!!! boohoo~ :( Should have signed up for more if I had known. Haizzzzzzzzz.

Gah. Today was compre timed practice and tomorrows the summary. LA has been pretty bad lately. Marks have been going down, down, down, down, down~ downnnnnn downnnnn, baby are you down down down down down. hehe. Tomorrow gonna present Science thingy. Hopefully it goes well. Partnering with NicG and Xuhua. ;D

~more kong hwa!

docent

2010-03-18T18:03:00.001+08:00

Today was THE BIG DAY for the trainee docents. We would finally get to put our training to the test and guide visitors around the museum.

The first group of visitors consisted of Amanda, Rachel and a little girl, the sister of someone from 2L. Even though we tried our best to seem lively, I guess we kinda failed at it cause they did seem a bit bored. Must be museum fatigue. xD Rachel did tell us some feedback that we were doing great as we tried to have a conversation with them. :D This is the first group so we should keep our spirits up! :)

The second group was a group of tourists. They were from overseas I think and one of them was I think, married to a Eurasian woman. We guided them and 2 of them seemed spontaneous. The woman, though, seemed kinda bored and started looking around.

The third group was a girl who was the twin of someone in 2L and her younger sister. They seemed kinda interested and that made us happy! :D There was also a docent with them, observing us too I think.

The fourth group consisted of Xuhua, Alvin and a teacher from DHS. They were actually quite erm, observative. Surprisingly. Though Xuhua did say a few unneccessary things. Nearing the end, Nicole came and told us to end quickly as the next group is going to come soon. So, I cut short the part about music.

The fifth and last group, was a group of Malays, possible brothers. They were actually told to watch the movie first as we were actually rushing. They were the most pro-active among all of our tourists. When i held out a picture of P.Ramlee, I thought that the eldest of them all would answer, but in the end, it was actually the youngest one who shouted immediately, "P.Ramlee!" Haha. It is kinda cool actually when you know that they are so interested. :) Grace later also told me that when she talked about the actress who commited suicide, one of them went, "Eh! Why?" And as she continued talking, he went, "Haizzz. Commit suicide....." Haha. So I think that among all of them, they were actually the best group that we received :D

Overall, this experience was a very cool one :D I mean, the self-satisfaction that you get from it is something that cannot be bought and after that 1+ hour of standing, you will feel that it is actually worth it! We had a great time too! If I have a chance, I would do it again! ;)

~being a docent rocks

Alice in wonderland

2010-03-18T17:46:00.002+08:00

ALICE IN WONDERLAND

Went to eat buffet actually at Sakae Sushi with my cousins before deciding to watch Alice in Wonderland.

Ate sushi until very full.... yummy....!

Storyline: Alice comes back to the 'dream' that she had after 13 years. She is now grown up and was actually in the midst of being proposed to when she ran away, chasing after a white rabbit in a vest with a ticking clock. She fell into a hole and viola! She is in 'Wonderland' where the Red Queen rules ruthlessly. The hatter and many others have been awaiting her return to save them and kill the deadly dragon. She is confused and does not believe that any of these are real. To her, this is just another nightmare or dream. She struggles with her inner self to bring out who she really is and what she really wants.

Verdict: I love the colourful images and wonderful sound effects! The makeup and everything are perfect! However, the story does seem a bit slow in the beginning until when Alice meets the Hatter. The voices of everyone are perfect as well. Anne Hathaway's voice is very good as it is normally soft and gentle, except for the part when she sounds serious and deadly as she warns Alice about choosing her choices. The only, perhaps, loop-hole is that I do not know what is the moral or meaning of the show. Is it finding oneself? Or is it nothing is impossible? Or is it looks can be deceiving? Hmmm....

Rating: 4/5

Even though I do not really get the moral of the story, it is still a good watch for both kids and adults and at least, there is a storyline. :)

In....ter....net....work...ing....slow...ly

2010-03-17T14:00:00.000+08:00

My internet is working soooooooo slowly. Gahs.
later gonna go eat sakae sushi buffet with my cousins. :) gonna pass them free tickets to the show, "Being Human" directed by Jack Neo.
Currently, feeling terribly sleepy, dunno why. OHHHHHH. I think I know why now.... Just now I ate medicine for the flu. GAH. Big mistake. Now i feel like dozing off straight away. Never mind, later then sleep in my aunt's car. Haha. Weird.
Woke up at 9 today. Did chinese hmwk!!! Printed out the pictures, all thats left is to collate and cut and paste them onto coloured paper. :) Left one more chi newspaper review..... Planning to finish it on Friday, along with Nat Geo worksheet. Then, on sat or sun, will plan to do the dreadful maths. :(

Had museum guiding prog yesterday. Still desperately trying to find a visitor to visit the museum. Why is it that everyone seems busy tomorrow?! Haiz. Yesterday was fun. :D After the guiding prog, the bunch of us went to Pastamania to eat. The pasta that I ordered was Basil Chicken Aglio. Very nice. Though should be spicier. x)
After that, went to macs with Grace, Krystal and Nic w. We ordered fries first while trying to think of problems as well as getting the laptop started. In the end, we finished the questions, but the laptop hasn't started yet. Haha. We were like begging the laptop to start faster. In the end, we were like, what did we bring the laptop for??? Haha.
Then went back home while Grace and Nicole w. went to do Geog with Suting.....

Hope that i can find a visitor to goooooooooooo. GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
sleepy...... zzz

Gasp! The horror!

2010-03-14T13:54:00.002+08:00

Gasp!!!! The horror!!!! Well.... Basically I am gasping at the horror of the hmwk we have even during this long-awaited short one week holiday. Why do they have to take away our last chance of FREEDOM? Gahs. So yeah. The stuff that I have to do/go out for on the following days:
Monday - Meet up at the museum to chiong the script... Hopefully will be able to finish!
Tuesday - Museum guiding program
Wednesday - Most prob gonna do/chiong FPS
Thursday - Museum guiding program
Friday - Gotta do homework which includes chi (the horror)

GAH. So many stuffs. Luckily I did abit of my chi already. To those who haven even started, JIAYOUS AND GOOD LUCK! Haha. Dun mean to sound sacarstic or anything. >.< Still have a little bit flu and cough. Hate the cough. Damn it.

Yesterday went to eat dinner at a place at my grandma house there. One of the dishes was a pig TROTTER. So yeah. Can roughly imagine the expressions on our faces bahs. I mean, its like one BIG HUGE FAT PIG TROTTER in front of us. And we gotta eat it. But we did eat it in the end. xD HAD to. LOLs. Anyway, Happy birthday to the two cousins! :)

Currently still debating over the timing to meet up for FPS and days. Days are like virtually(reality-ly) filled up.
And FPS is like SO HARD AND DIFFICULT. You gotta rack your brains out just for one problem. But then we have to think of SIXTEEN problems. Just to one scene. Gahs. Why in the world do we need so many problems? Get it??? xP Haiz......

Anyway, there have been many ongoing controversies over the "Jack Neo Cheated" episode.

That is JACK NEO. To the people who dunno him, just in case. I mean, we have seen his movies and stuff and they were mostly revolving around one big issue and topic: FAMILY. So, WHY IN THE WORLD HAS THE GUY WHO DIRECTED SO MANY HEARTFELT, TEARS-RENDERING MOVIES CHEATING? *gasps* I did not know about it until I saw the video of his conference where his wife fainted on the news. I did not really think that he was this kind of guy. And what's more, there had recently been many cases of such "He cheated on his wife" cases going on. I can name a few here: Tiger Woods, John Terry and such. Is this the latest trend???

You work hard, marry, have kids, happy ending. That's what everybody wants. So why are there so many people digging their own grave? In addition, he is FAMOUS. Once you are famous, people will want you to become INFAMOUS. Like, seriously. He has been in this business for many years. Why did he still do it? He has kids, shouldn't he think about them for a minute before he went on to do whatever-stuff-that-is-being-published now? I pity his wife, really. The wife has to take care of the kids and the house and MAINTAIN it even though it is collapsing right now.

As for the other girls who come out to say that they have been 'connected' to Jack Neo even though he disagreed, I really hope that they will think about the family that they are breaking up here. Don't you even feel guilty? You are breaking up a family! And, if those accusations that you make are not true, then you are really.... (no words can express). Trying to gain fame by making use of the situation, eh?

Anyway, I hope that Jack Neo learns his lessons and stop doing such things. Repent and treat your wife better in the future. And to all those other tempted husbands, or even wives, out there, DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT.

Half day

2010-03-12T17:23:00.000+08:00

This post is regarding Thursday, 11 March 2010, yesterday.

Yesterday was HALF DAY! Last period was PE so we were damn happy sia~! Most of them went to play basketball. Gen and I went to borrom volleyball from Ms Lee. Then, Krystal, Grace, Gen, Weirong and I played volleyball. After a while, Pamela came. Was really sunny and hot. But we had great fun!!!!! :D

Afterwards, almost the whole class started playing volleyball. Valen, Xuhua and Mingyu kept serving damn far. Spoil our game... :( Then, most of the class went back to volleyball again. After playing enough, we decided to go Benedict's house. Went to White Sands then with Ming yu, Yohanes, Gerald, Bryan, Krystal, Grace, Nic g, Benedict, Felix. :) Ate macdonalds while listening to lame jokes though we still laughed.

Then, we shopped around for Pamela's gift to store the stars. Finally saw something like a divider to put stuff in. Looked really nice. :) Finally, we set off for Benedict'd house. Ming yu and Gerald left then. Walked to his house and got a minor side-stitch then cuz ate macs. ._. When we arrived, we obviously started looking and walking around his house. Saw the paintings that Benedict's mother drew I think. Damn nice. Really cool. I think can sell lors. :D

Then started playing cards while listening to Yohanes play piano, again. haha. Then halfway through, we started playing stress. And Benedict, who claimed to be the King of Stress came 'challenging' people to see if he has 'lost his touch'. Haha. He was damn fast lahs. I managed to stress him if not I think he would have won. :P

Went back home afterwards. Damn tired.
Had a sore throat and today, I got flu and cough.... GAH.

Anyway, received news that I got into Chinese Society, amazing. I thought that the audition did not go well lors.... Dunno lors. Gonna try and find out when will I start....

And my tests are not that bad. Currently. I very scared of the maths. :(

Yuan wen's hse

This is a post regarding Tuesday, 9 March 2010.

On that day, there was supposed to be Kong Hwa star buddy programme. Then, Yohanes, Nicole G, Gen, Ming Yu, Yuan Wen and I were waiting at the foyer. We waited and waited. Then decided to check out if there was really a star buddy prog. We called and called but could not contact Ms Tan. Was damn pissed lahs. I mean, she should have told us first!

Then in the end, due to some weird unexpected ideas, we decided to go Yuan Wen's house. Travelled there and walked and walked in the endless maze of detached houses. Finally, we reached her house. The house was damn nice lahs. Got like 3 storeys!!!!! Saw her cat, Shadows too. Was a bit scared that it would scratch me though.

And of course, Yohanes started playing the piano. Nic, Gen, Ming yu and I started playing cards. Tried teaching them bridge but failed. Fought over Ming yu's phone. I scored like 3 secs for the pulling toilet paper roll!!!! Yes.....! xD

Then we went to the computers and started 'doing' our SIP.... but kinda digressed and moved on to Sims 3 in the end. Played with the characters and made them fat, skinny, fat, skinny.......Finally, we decided to go back... Walked with mingyu, gen, nic. Yohanes claimed that he knew a short cut or sumthing and went on by himself.... In the end, we kinda got lost... Then we asked a women and a boy where should we head to to go to the MRT. They pointed in DIFFERENT directions. Was funny. In the end, we found out where the MRT was... Tired. x)

2010-03-04T18:06:00.000+08:00

Went to school damn early at like 7am to do FPS stuff. Obviously finished it. XD
Then, erm. nothing really special happened today, except that there was a sci test. There was a Chinese test yest and tomorrow, there is a LA test. boohoo....
The LA poetry analysis is damn hard lahs..... Argh.....
And tomorrow, I have an audition for the Chinese Society....
I hate auditions..... :(

song

2010-02-25T17:30:00.006+08:00

This song is DAMN nice!!!!! It's sung by Timberland and Katy Perry. Katy Perry rox!!! :D Saw it on MTV channel at first. The song is nice, the MV is nice too!!!!!! So here it is. :)

Oh, yesterday, as there was museum guiding, we went to the museum, obviously. I got to see the Egypt exhibition!!! Btw, do you students know that it is actually FREE for ALL STUDENTS in Singapore to view the exhibition!!!! So cool!!! We went to see the exhibition and saw a MUMMY!!! So cool! Though I wished that there were more mummies! X)

K, anyway, I was supposed to talk about my day. Today, I tried volleyball for the FIRST time during PE! By the way, my first PE lesson for this year was on yesterday. XD So yeah.... coming back.... Volleyball is FUN! I paired up with Joelle are we made a mistake in taking the ball. We took the hard one so after a few hits, my arms were red. But not swollen. XP My receiving is.... quite messy in the beginning but after that, it became kinda okay. I guess. The problem was that I could not manage to hit it straight at the person I want. My spiking was in a sense 'powerless' in the beginning. But after that, it became better. :D

Then, we were split into groups of 3. But since there were 25 people, our grp had 4 people: Ying Xuan, Genevieve, Joelle and me. I was kinda bad at aiming and hit Joelleon the face in one of the rounds! SO SORRY, Joelle!!!! I hope it does not leave a mark or anything.... >< After that, the teacher asked us to line up in 2 lines so that he can spike to us for us to receive. He spiked to me two times and I did not get it to him TWO times. :( It kept going left. Haiz, must control next time!!!! Gah. I hate the 2 rounds during every PE lesson. So exhausting. My legs and arms are aching from running and volleyball....

During Geog, it was okay... Not much happening.... except interesting videos that are COOL. Do you know, that to make a cup of latte, you need 500 litres of water, which is 50 gallons of water? WOW. This includes planting your coffee, making the pastic lids and stuff. JUST TO MAKE A CUP OF LATTE. So the message was: Change the way you think. THAT certainly did change the way I thought! Climate change and many more are happening everyday. The carbon footprints that we leave behind that invisible, but the effects are real and happening. Thinking that the world could end in 2012 might be possible, considering the rate of destruction the Earth is going through. We should never think that our efforts are too little. Imagine 100 people conserving the Earth, do you know how much impact that would have? Too effort is too small. Start recycling for a change. It would not only save the home that you live in, Earth, but also make you feel good about yourself. :D

As for Chinese lesson, I was told to read one of my answers to a question which I got a 2 star next to it. >< Well, I felt happy for the fact that I got 2 star, but I did not exactly felt like standing up to read. But then again, I got 5 points for my group! ;)

Malay lesson was damn competitive! We had something like competitions... And everyone was scrambling to stand up. And there was one funny part when everyone struggled with the answers and no one could answer. Then Suting quickily stood up to answer. She say "21", which I think was the calculation to Mr Iskandar's question??? We were like laughing. Then, she stood up again and said, "erm.... (something something)" which she accidentally said wrongly. Mr Iskandar deducted the points despite their protests. Then she stood up AGAIN to anwer. And, when Mr Iskandar asked to her for the answer, she said, "I have no idea." Everyone burst out laughing and Pamela was like shouting at Suting, "Nooo!!! Why you again?!" Haha. It was THREE times in a row!!!! And their group had been deducted 15*3=45 points. Haha XD Malay lesson has never felt so funny!!! Btw, we won in the end!!! :)

~laughing like hell

i found my calling

2010-02-23T16:43:00.000+08:00

I finally found my calling. I know that some of you might not like or support the decision that I am making. But this is what I WANT.

When I thought about going to softball, my stomach suddenly churned. You know that kind of feeling when you dont want what is gonna happen to happen? Well, I kinda cried a little too. I then hesitated. Should I still just continue with softball or quit.

I started to think about what everyone would think. The consequences. All the trouble and paperwork. Then I paused and asked myself, "What do I want?" I had just seen this movie on TV called 'The Women'. And they had this wife who did not know if she should leave the husband who was having an affair. Then someone asked her, "What do you want?" And it hit her, just like it hit me.

I want to quit softball.
And I am gonna leave it at that.

movie

2010-02-19T17:22:00.000+08:00

PERCY JACKSON AND THE LIGHTNING THIEF

I went to watch this movie on the last day of the CNY holidays.

Before that, we had went to Seoul Garden.

By the time we finished our food, we had smelled really really bad.

Thus, we went into the movie theater sheepishly, hoping that no one could smell us.

Story Percy Jackson is the son of a god and a human. One day, demons and gods started looking for him, believing that he is the thief that stole Zeus' lightning bolt. Percy struggles to prove his innocence and save his mother who was killed while they were escaping from a Kindly One(something like a monster).

Verdict Well, this movie is definitely BETTER than Harry Potter in the sense that it is not slow in the opening. After all, I am not a very huge fan of Harry Potter as well. The 'final' battle between the real lightning thief and him could have been longer though. And they focused too much on the seeking of the 3 pearls. They should have elaborated on Merdusa too. However, the visual effects were great. As expected.

Rating 3.75/5 A great movie! Almost a 4 too! :D

VALENTINE'S DAY

This was an impromptu outing.

After the CNY celebration at Dunman High, Suting and Gen suddenly popped the question if I wanted to watch Valentine's Day.

OF COURSE.

We(Suting, Gen, Joelle, Vivianne, me) rushed all the way from school to Plaza Sing.

And obviously, we made it IN TIME. :)

Story It was Valentine's Day. There would obviously be some heartbreaks and happy endings. Well, it was a typical storyline. Akin to 'Love Actually' actually. The love stories of a few people and how do they connect AND fall in love.

Verdict Lots of humorous parts. They could use it. The storyline was not exactly very surprising in a good way. It was cliche and we could kinda figure out what was going to happen. Pretty and handsome actors and actresses though. :P Some parts were actually totally redundant in a sense, like when Taylor Swift and Taylor Lauter were acting.

Rating 3/5 A nice humorous movie to watch, but not exactly that great.

funny

2010-02-09T22:13:00.000+08:00

Damn sleep now...
But I wanna blog.
How ironic.

Anyway, today was the SPECIAL music lesson. The first music lesson in this year, that has been very interesting. Cuz some instructor came in to teach us about Malay music. He joked around first and then introduced us to the tompang (i think the spelling is liddat). It is something like a mini drum. :D Then, Valen and the others kept making funny comments until I cant help but laugh along.
Then suddenly, I think that someone dunno what was the meaning of a term.
Then Shinmin or Valen said, "Go google lah."
Then they continued, "Go google google google." (Get it?)
Alvin suddenly came along, "Go google." (turns back)
Heres the funny part. Alvin turned around again and continued from where he left off, " dot com."
HAHAHA. I was like laughing damn hard lahs. The longer you think about it, the funnier it seems. It is really one of those be-there-to-understand moments. In the end, I laughed so hard until I cried. And when I told Nicole that in CHINESE, the instructor kinda heard it and said, "Huh? You laugh until cry?" LOLs!

Another funny incident. We took bus 158 with Felix and Zhenyang. Nicole and I found out Felix lived in a terrace house. O.o WOW!!! XP Was in the bus going back home when 2 boys suddenly came and sit behind me and Nicole. Then the 2 boys started disturbing us. Like hell. Haha. They kicked our chair and said, "Knock, knock. Whos there?" I kinda felt like telling them that they were supposed to say "Knock knock" and we were the ones who were supposed to ask "Whos there". -.- Haha. Diaozzz.
Then, we waved goodbye to one of them who gt off at a later stop than us.
Nicole was like so crazy over the boy and kept calling him cute. LOL.
Then Nicole suddenly got this weird idea and started texting Gen about the guy. She started off as making it sound like she made this guy on the bus and the way she put it was like she LIKED the guy. Haha. And Gen kinda fell for it!!!!!! XD Until Gen asked how old was the guy. :( Too bad. If not we could have 'deceived' Gen longer. Although we did not lie to her! We had merely missed out some facts (on purpose). heehee. ><

Haiz. Got Science practical tomorrow. Dunno what they would be testing. Gram's stain most prob. thats like the only practical that can be finished in a day. -.-
Anyway, I had actually forgotten to bring the history GRADED assignment on Monday. And we would be deducted 20%!!!! I kinda pleaded with Ms Ling and she agreed not to penalize me!!! :D Yay. Thank, Ms Ling!!!!! :) So happy~
