Twilight

Had TWO tests today. Was like in shock when I saw the history test??!! And ACC test too!!!
AKA Appreciation of Chinese Culture. I like last minute chiong! Haha.

Anyway, had read Twilight the book and watched Twilight the movie. So, lets compare, shall we???

Twilight the movie
Focus: James chasing Bella
Opinion: I think that the starting of the show is kinda boring. And I dunno why Edward is so sought-after by female fans... He doesn't look THAT good to me in that show. There are some parts in the show where there should be music, but there isn't so it is kinda weird. And the music can be louder in some parts of the show. Also... the part when Edward says, "So the lion fell in love with the lamb." That is kind of sudden as they were actually talking about Bella not being afraid. Then it suddenly changes to the lion and lamb??? It doesn't fit in. x.x So, the script should maybe be changed??? Then, the effects for the movie is nice, good! :) Bella's acting skill is good, considering the fact that this is one of her first shows, I think??? Oh, lastly, the show has too much of Bella's thoughts...
Marks: 3/5

Twilight the book
Focus: Edward and Bella in love
Opinion: The book is nice and engaging. It is quite easy to be 'hooked' onto it. However, it is kinda 'draggy' so it is well... how should I put it??? The emotions and the feelings and descriptions are really good... :) Oh, and also, like the movie, the book's start is kinda boring. So it kinda deters people from continue reading.
Marks: 4/5

Conclusion
Well, after comparing, I feel that the book is nicer. It has more details, etc. Also, while reading the book, you will have a picture of it in your mind. Well, mine was kinda different from that in the show. So, you can like imagine. (not 'hu si luan xiang' hor!) Maybe my 'marks' is affected as I read the book first. Well, different people have different views. :)

Funny Stickman

Yoyo! Had Pastoral Care today and wanted to share something about Peer Pressure! xD
Heehee. Watch out for the pictures!

There are about 6 forms of Peer pressure:

The LOOK
Peers giving you the look which says, "I am cool, and you are not."

The Huddle
Peers in a huddle with their backs to you so you cannot see what they are looking at or doing.

Reasoning
Peers giving you reasons to do something which is wrong or something which you don't like.

Not sure what is it. I think is Insult
Peers calling you names and insulting you.

Rejection
Peers threathening you to do something, if not, they will not be friends with you, etc.

The Example
When you see others doing something, you follow them to be with them.

~laughing all the way

A drawing, finally...

Hey ho! Well, some updates about life...

Pre-camp stuff
Well, on friday, we just had some pre-camp stuff. Cuz we gonna have a level camp on school around May so we had a talk on the stuff we gonna do during the camp. It was like class bonding and stuff, lols. So we kinda have a competition like cheering and class badge. So I was in charge of a group which was doing the class badge. So our team's work was being voted and our work was being chosen to represent the class. :)
The cheer, well, it went like this:
We've got a K, K, K, K
Kids together.
We've got a E, E, E, E
Friends forever.
We've got a L, L, L, L
Laugh wherever.
We've got a L, we've got a Y,
We've got an X-tra zoo.
Go.......KELLYX!
In the end, we didn't win any places. But it was kinda fun.
Although I have to admit, our class is kinda uncoordinated and not working together. So... 1K, we gotta listen to our CP and VC more, k? To achieve great things and reach great heights, we gotta work together and do the best we can! :D JYJY!!!

Manga drawing
Well, this is the first time I call this a REAL manga drawing. It is my best so far, I think. There is one more, but I haven't outline it in black pen... so wait long long??? Haha. Keep the comments rolling in, please! Thanks a lot! :)

~drawing my way through life

Something I typed in the spur of that moment...

Yo! I had that feeling that I wanna type something so well... I typed. Like duh???
So, here it is: (i haven typed ever since i stopped writing the story...)

Tears rolled down my cheeks as if a floodgate had opened. They were hot and salty. I cried my heart out as I held him close to my heart. My mind was in a confused state as a thousand thoughts filled my mind. “Why? Why?” I called out to no one in specific. I looked down upon the boy, the boy who had a face that was perfect to me. He seemed so peaceful, so calm. He seemed like as if he was sleeping. However, something was wrong. He was not breathing, not moving. I could not heard the sniffling sound which was always there when he took a breath.
I should have taken better care of him. I should not have even left him for one second. The fateful moment came that morning. As they say, curiosity kills the cat. I had only went to answer the door. I had only left for a minute. I had only spent six months with him but he was already being taken away from me!
I could imagine the way he fumbled around, looking for nothing in particular. Then, he caught sight of the colourful toy. The toy had been bought by my husband, given to the boy. He grabbed it, looking pleased with himself. Then, as if it was nothing dangerous, he swallowed it. I could imagine how frightened he must have been when he could not breathe. He must have struggled with all his might to take in a breath of the wonderful oxygen which gives life to us. I should have ran in and dashed to the hospital immediately, but no. I strolled in and to my alarm, found him like that.
He was gone. He would never come back. His heart had stopped beating. I am willing to hear him cry throughout the night. I am willing to change his diapers for him and bear any form of pain. As long as he was still alive, I was willing. I cried, “Dave…my baby…”

This 'compo' is about the author losing the baby. The baby had choked to death and sort of suffocated... sad. :'( anyway, pls comment. i think i sorta deproved...

~typing, typing, typing

stupid wallet...

yar, so what?

i am a stupid, freaking f******* toad who is stupid enough to lose her damn freaking f******* wallet, huh?

ALL 6-1s: I WILL NOT HOLD A BBQ AGAIN. IT IS EXTREMELY TROUBLESOME AND PLS ASK THE PERSON WHO THOUGHT OF SUCH AN IDEA TO CARRY IT OUT AND NOT JUST PASS IT ON!
(edited)

k, really sorry for my outburst and i am not blaming six one or wadeva. lol.
jus that having such a big bbq for so many ppl was really tiring and very messy esp. when it was a last-min plan.
i wanna thank every one who helped my in one way or another. and the guys voices breaking was really funny. starting the fire... eating uncooked food... laughing... playing... yep, was all wonderful memories. but seriously, i dun wish to hold such a bbq again. if ppl want class outings, i think that a movie would be the best choice. maybe during june???

Funny video

Hey, I found this video thanks to a friend.
It is entitled, "The mom song".
Anyway, it tells us that we should be grateful to our moms and know that they are 'working' so hard for us. :)
Enjoy! x)

At home, finally resting...

The very first time I can relax
School declared that today was a holiday for the A level students last year did well! :)
Three cheers for Dunman High!
Haha. This is like the first time I can finally rest and relax lors. :P
Finished reading the mangas
Finished some comics which I stopped the other time. One manga is like going around in circles and circles. Haiz, a bit waste time reading, but i wanna know the ending, so... you know.
CCA cancelled
yeepee! Tomorrow's CCA is cancelled, dunno for what reason. Yesterday, we were made to like kneel down on the sand. Omg! My skin like came off (a little) and it was stinging all the way!
Argh!!!! And when will Vampire Knight end????

~when will comics end???

Interesting stuff...

LSP lesson
We baked some pastry stuff and it looked like tarts. :) Anyway, for the information of everyone, I will just type out the recipe. :D

Shortcrust Pastry
Ingredients:
Pinch of salt
175g plain flour
75g chilled butter / pastry magarine
Cold water

Preparation Method
1) Mix together the flour, salt and magarine with your fingertips until the mixture resembles find breadcrumbs. :)
2) Add water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough binds together and knead it carefully. (Remember not to add too much water!)
3) Roll it out using a kneading roll (?) until it is about 0.5cm thick.
4) Use a metal shape thingy to cut out the shape. Diameter of the metal thingy should be about 4-5cm to make about 13 tarts.
5) Roll out the circle dough a little.
6) Place it in the muffin paper (used to hold muffins). Spread it around. Use a fork to poke some holes in it.
7) Put jam or custard in the middle of the dough. (Yummy!)
8) Toast it until the jam or custard starts to bubble. Let it 'boil' for about 5 mins.
9) Let it cool. :)

Ta-da! The 'tarts' are done. To let you have a better picture of what it might be like, please see the pictures below. These pictures are taken from the 1Kellyx blog as I never took any. (Thanks, Nicole (Gan) for providing the pictures! :D)

Interesting reptile
While walking back from softball today, we(Jingwen, Nicole wooi and I) saw a strange looking reptile from afar, the bridge across the Kallang River. We were so fascinated as the reptile looked really unusually big and there was another small little creature behind it! The small creature looked like a turtle or terrapin. We scurried down to catch a glimpse of it. But it was too late, it had hidden under the shelter where we cannot see it. We even tried throwing rocks at the water to make it come out. Plan failed. :( Jingwen then said that she saw a humming bird fly away when she went near the river. She also managed to catch a glimpse of the mysterious reptile. At least she did! I didn't! :'( And it was really interesting...
On the way home, we catch sight of a yellow bird, which I think is called a booboo bird??? Anyway, I took a picture of it. But the bird was soooo small that it only a tiny speck on my picture. I zoomed in and it was totally blur. Nevertheless, I am going to post it just for fun. :)

Can you find the yellow bird?

There! Haha x)

Cute Mushrooms
This was taken when there was softball. Jingwen and I are not sure whether it is a mushroom but it is the size of a tennis ball!


These mushrooms were taken at my grandma's house. Kawaii~ especially the white ones. They are as tiny as your ten cent coin. Maybe five cent!
