Heh, today so rocks my socks! Lessons passed pretty fast, and today's training was fun. Heheh, ms tan taught us abt nertball rules. Wah lau, she like went thru the powerpoint slides once and expect us to remember everything. Worse man, there's going to be a test. Crazy, tink i need netball tuition. ha.

Ha, yeah, then during courtwork, Waha! J1s vs J2s, with ms tan helping them. Halfway thru, of course J2s lead la, so ms tan gather the J1s to talk about strategy.
So we, the J2s also gather to talk abt strategy. Hahaha, so the strategy goes like this...

" eh, eh, gather, let's find a strategy"

"Okay, okay, strategy... what are we eating for dinner later"

"I want to eat ban-mian"

"NYP is close leh, only got macs"

"Go amk or j8 la"

End of strategy.




And i tink Cheryl's really cool. She came back every wed from RJ just for training and dinner.


And dear joei, CHEER UP! love ya loads! =)

I think i am too free la, blogging here everyday. Just when the entire world is complaining about not having enough time, i seemed to be quite free. Yikes! That sounds pretty bad for a good, dilligent and pretty girl like me. =p Ha, okay, i've finished my current load of homework till thursday so i can slack till thursday. That's good, cos i'll be damn shagged tomorrow.

Its only pe for 2 days and every fibre in my body aches. And my SBJ sucks big time. Not to mention silver or gold, i think passing also got problem. How can it be? I mean i'm like a lot heavier with less developed muscles last year but can still manage a gold. So what exactly is the problem? =(


And today WTH!!! Using the mathematical process of random selection, Mr Cheng picked me to take some stupid NE quiz. Suay, man. I will never sit in front again and i will wear a mask to sch. The quiz is on MONDAY!!

MONDAY!!

School ends at 12:15. Its like the only earliest day in my entire school life. Freak, man!

My life is ruined. =(

WTH!!! I typed a very very long post and its all gone! Like wth!


Today is a bad day, i declare. I swam without goggles just now and banged my fricking nose into the pool wall. It hurts big time, man. Like super ouch!

Well, other than that, today's pretty great. It feels just like a friday so WHEE! its tv all the way.

No mood to continue, and Desperate Housewives is on now, gotta run. =)

There was this old movie about 2 women. They are called Romy and Marie(i tink,i forgot).

Romy and Marie are best friends in high school. After leaving high school, they still remain the best of friends. They faced all the problems most women would normally face. They worry about being unable to get boyfriends, their weight and not able to find a job. 10 years down the road, there's a high school renunion.

They got even more worried and anxious. Because first of all, they still don't have boyfriends, and Marie is just fired, they have great hour-glass figures though. But in the days leading up to the high school renuion, they got even more anxious. Partly, because they felt they were losers in high school and there's this clique of 3 girls who always taunt and make fun of them. Finally during lunch in a dinghy old cafe, they thought of a brilliant idea. Well, or so they thought. They will pose as successful businesswomen and their business would be that they invented advertisements. Yes, advertisements.

So they borrowed a car and got those dark, stiff business suits and feeling very confident, they drove to the renuion party. Halfway on the road, they suddenly started arguing about who should be the inventor of advertisements. Each wanted the credit of being the inventor. It got very bad, and they started to criticise each other, of failures and mistakes committed in the past, and who's cuter. Both were hurt.
They decided to go on seperate ways at the party.

At the party, everyone is merry and high. Marie fell asleep in the car and Romy didn't wake her up, leaving for the party on her own. Marie had a very strange dream while sleeping. She dreamt that each of them had a fabulous time at the party. They were the centre of attention and they managed to suan the clique that used to terrorise their lives. Both also got hitched to their high school crush. But they never resolve their conflict and severed all ties with each other. Fast forward to 60 years later. Marie is a wizened old woman now, with straggly strands of hair tied behind into a bun and hobbled with the aid of a walking stick. Suddenly, she misses Romy a lot. Throughout all the years, she had never forgotten about Romy and regretted leaving that night. At the insistence of her husband, she called Romy via a video phone. Romy was on her deathbed. The conversation started well, but then they started to argue over who's cuter again. Romy got so angry that she got a heart-attack and died.

But it was a dream.


Back to reality, Romy left for the party first and she saw that clique. She walked over and proclaimed that she invented advertisements. Everyone was shocked, then they started sniggering and sneering at her. Because it was taught in high school econs that advertisements were invented by some guy in the 16th century. Romy was so upset and embarrassed that she wanted to burst into tears and find a hole to hide.

Then, Marie appeared and stood up for her. She apologised and comforted her. But Romy was still very upset at being humilliated by the clique which she disliked a lot. She was upset that despite so many years later, she was still tortured by them. Worse, one of them was married to her crush. She felt an utter failure. However, Marie confessed " You know, i've always enjoyed high school and i think you're the funnest person i've ever known. I had a ball of time in high school because i'm always with you. I was never upset by them and i think you're the bestest friend any girl could ever ask for." Romy sobbed and stared at her. Then wordlessly, they hugged each other.

They left the party and changed out of those sombre business suits into their usual glitzy, flashy and short dresses with big, out-of-the-world and totally cool sunglasses. Then with disco music booming in the background, they strode back into the party on their 6-inch glittering heels. They danced all dances and had a ball of time, just like they used to have in high school.

I'm too tired to continue, but the end is that the clique broke up, because they don't stand up for each other when they are being suanned in return. Then Marie's crush had became a billionaire and loved her. He wanted to fetch her away in a helicopter. Romy felt a little dissapointed what with her married crush and left out. Then in the helicopter, Marie stretched out her hand with a tender, understanding gaze, helped Romy into the helicopter. Everyone watched with their mouths agape. Well, in the end, both of them did run a successful business selling glitzy bimbotic outfits.




Touching, isn't it?





Think about it.

My March Holiday



These 2 pics are taken while i'm on a moving travellator out of a window. I think these 2 pics are fabulous! I'm such a bloody good photographer. Hidden talent. Heh Maybe i should join Photog Soc.





My cousin. According to some spying sources, he met up with a certain valerie, sometimes with preston in the evenings near the playground. Though he denied vehemently when interrogated. Heh, more professional spying needed.

I have a crazy lil' sis. I seriously dunno what she is trying to do.
Ahahhahha!
Actually, i do know. Heheh

A very tired minyi sleeping very unglam-ly. Then kana woken up by a lousy and pokey photographer. =p So she having a GREAT soul posed for that lousy photographer. Ha!

Competing to be the grosser-est. Ha, tink i won.



Dun you think it look like maggots crawling out from our mouths. Looks kinda fear-factor. Oh, speaking of fear-factor, i'm glad nicole won. That ____ guy was so irritaingly obnoxious.

Our swimsuits. Swam and lounge in the hotel pool sipping mocktails. Mom don't let us drink the real stuff, though beer was allowed. Heheh, we had pretty much heneiken and singha. Had pictures of us in swimsuits but do you seriously think i will post them here. Hello, this is a family-friendly site. Think only 2 persons from AJ has seen me in a swimsuit. And it shall remain that way. Ha.

Leaving soon, in hours. Alamak! so far only finish econs hmw, still got 2 math tutorials, 1 math test and econs test, which i haven't started studying yet. But nvm, what's the chinese phrasing, smth like when the boat reaches the bridge, things will become straight. Ha, shall clear my hmw debt slowly. Right now, i'm trying to clear my sleep debt. Averaging 12hrs daily.

Yup, dental appointment today. There was this dental helper who's a very nice lady. Think she's about 20 or so. I waited for a very long time sitting in the dental chair then she struck up a conversation with me. Then we started chatting. Topic ranges from family, school to dogs. She likes maltese. I'm amazed at how easily a conversation can be struck up between mere strangers who have never met before. I could have taken of those braces today, if not for my obstinate aversion to rubber bands. But nvm, it will. soon.

Okay, here's a special request from chups. She wants me to post this pic here and proclaim that she's my girlfriend. Hahha, so here's my gf...




I personally think that she looks very good in this pic. Think this pic must have been taken about 10 yrs ago. Lol

Oh yah, by the way, DON'T MISS ME!!
ok!?

Arrrrrgggghhhhh!!

Ghost!!

Went to watch Nanny Mcphee today. Ha, its a rather great show, the kind which makes you feel happy and warm and fuzzy all over. It has elements of fairytales in it and those riotous and rebellious stuff which i've done when i was young. I think it was rather horrid.

I was reminded of those childhood days. Those were the happiest times of my life. I was young and totally ignorant, living in a beautifully crafted world immersed in everything Disney. There was no knowledge of bad people, politics, poverty, disease, death and anything that was sad or vile. All the cousins would chatter non-stop and jump around (smth like what tom cruise did, but not on prime-time) and run amok in restaurants, screaming loudly at the top of our voices. Or we would hang at the playground and pool all day long, sometimes challenging other kids to soccer matches.

However, at that time, i wanted very badly to grow up. I thought that it would be very glamorous and exciting. There will be absolute freedom and independence. I would fantansize about working in Wall Street, in New York, fully decked out in Armani suits and jimmy choos, going for power lunches with influential but demanding clients and racking my brains to clinch deals. I would throw myself passionately into my work, devoting my life to acheiving my cause and living each day to its fullest. On weekends, i would take a hiatus from my stressful job and would take a walk in central park with my dog on its clean pavements. Those pavements would be lined with trees that has coppered coloured leaves, that would fall gently down when rustled lightly by the wind. Or, it'd be great to just simply sit outside a cafe, with a steaming cup of hot chocolate and a good book.

You may find it strange, but i had no fantasies of meeting my price-charming when i was young and i'd prefer my dog.

Such was those ignorance about the true reality of life. When you grow up, you became quieter because you'd think before you speak. Sometimes you'd be afraid to speak up because you know there'd be some kind of consequences or effects that would affect the opinions of others of you. The more a person mean to you, the more you'd think. It became a sort of wall that envelopes you.

There was this quote which i had seen somewhere before, which i thought meaningful. It goes smth like this, " Sometimes, when a person builds a wall, it's not to isolate themselves, but its to see who would bother to break that wall".

Meaningful, isn't it?


Well, and guess what today?!


I had another fondue at Hagen Daz again today after the movie which means popcorn and XXXL chicken. OMG!!! 2 fondues in 2 days consecutively. Somehow, i'm going to become really fat this holiday. What an unhealthy obsession!
Now, i've got to put in extra work in burning those excess calories. But nvm, it'll be good training for NAPFA. I want to maintain my gold, but my incline and standing broad jump seem to worsen with age.

Oh, and we got some free stickers. There's one with a grosteustely looking pig's head which i think i shall spam the locker with. Ahahhahha!

Chups sent a chain e-mail which threatens disaster about love. I forwarded to almost everyone in the class, more than the required number. Ahahhahhah, now they would have some trouble in finding enough people. Suddenly, i feel so mean. =))

Ahahhahha!

Happy birthday

Yesterday, had a run and swim before rushing to meet huilin. Yes, i was late again. Yikes!! Debated for hours what to get for vandy and the surprise. Yes, hours, excluding those on the phone. Cruised orchard for hours and my legs almost broke. Finally got a glitzy glamourous looking bag. The original surprise plan couldn't work out, so its celebration at Hagen Daz in esplanade instead.

Yesterday was so darn fattening la. I survived on ice cream for lunch and dinner. The only solid food i had was during breakfast. Oh, and we saw a teacher, dunno her name, but she has the bob-hair and artistic demeanour. We stalked her from behind for a long time. Hahha, ok, not literally, we were going in the same direction. Then whisper conspiratorily and have far-fetched theories on who's she meeting.






Look at the candle. We're so thoughtful.=p



And this my friend, is pure class.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

Sweet old vandy!

**MUACKSSS!!!

Smoky rooms and clear mountain mornings


I felt shitty today. I wanna flush all the moodiness out of my system.



Out moodiness! Out, Out, Out!



Felt better afterwards. After the short game. They are lithe and agile and the way they jump and pounce and reach for the ball, its so totally cool.

Dinner at J8.

2 more days.

And i still feel shitty. I don't know why.

Had a talk with Mr Cheng during mass civics today. He asked about schoolwork, friends and family. I have great friends and family. But my schoolwork...err...

I told him my chinese and gp sucks. He could not answer me on that. They are language stuff. He asked if i've started on any revision. I answered truthfully. No.
He asked how many hours i spent on academic work a week. I answered truthfully as well. About 15 hrs a week. He thought it was way way too little and showed it very blatantly on his face. Then he talk about having to give up on stuff and having to concentrate on studying. And he was very funny. Ha, he said the starting part was the hardest, that's why he haven't gotten started on jogging, and he pointed at his tummy.

I was rather enlightened. I realised that i'm only keeping up with homework and have been stoning through lectures. But today in a very rare scenario, could concentrate during math lecture, because our dear math rep made me sit in the first row, right in front of Mdm Ng. It almost killed half of my brain cells.

I should start studying hard and be a mugger. Who wouldn't want to do well in tests and exams?

But its going to be difficult. This march holiday is already packed. 1st 3 days will be out and last 4 days will be in Thailand. That's a week gone. Yeah, i'm pretty excited about the trip. It'll be shopping, pigging out, swimming and more shopping.

Bridge again today. I think bridge is better than gp lessons. Oh yah, i've got to note this down. Today, i managed to answer Cheng's question SATIFACTORILY without STUTTERING. For the first time in my life, man... What a historical event.

Tsk tsk, that huilin ar, takes 1hr to reply a message. And i think my parents are crazy. Xinyi is having OBS. They asked me if i want to pon school tomorrow and join them in going to Pulau Ubin.

Some sort of skit each group has to present during econs. We're supposed to show what kind of unemployment it is. We got seasonal unemployment.

Hahha, I'm still laughing at it.

Atikah is mrs smith and Minyi is mr smith. Shannon is the hotel manager.


Atikah gigling and Minyi trying to laugh lecherously enters.

Atikah: Darling, we need a hotel room.

Minyi to shannon aka hotel manager: Hotel manager, we want a room that has a king-sized bed...

Atikah(giggling): bath tub

Minyi: yup, bathtub, jacuzzi, a mini-bar...

Atikah(still giggling): massage oil

Minyi: champange... and don't bother with room service till about 3pm...

Atikah: issit enough?

Shannon: Sorry, there's no more hotel room available... (explains whole process of why due to season, no rooms available)

Atikah to minyi: ooohhhh, how darling, there's no more room available.

minyi laughing lecherously: Don't worry darling. There's always the car...

Lol, i swear atikah is a most talented actress and it was really funny esp the coup the grace. But, we NAQ, cos' didn't show anything about seasonal unemployment. Haha, so the whole skit is just a dirty-minded production.

By the way, i don't look lecherous naturally. I'm just acting.

Dear old lucia who on a very very rare occasion, treated me to chocolate cake this morning. =)

Had lunch with her and simin yesterday too.

You so ROCKS!!!
Love ya loads!

Today is a rather sad day.

2 sad cases:




I would be lying if i say that i do not want an A1. But since i didn't study for it at all, and did not put in much effort, i'm quite satisfied with a B3 la.




Last team dinner with J1s. They're leaving this friday.



One happy thing though: =)
