Check out my Slide Show!

Love will be born in year 2007~*

People who didn't know what the heading of my blog means, it actually means that I'll continue to sing, till my voice reaches you...

So of course, to end off the last entry of the year... --->

Yume no Kazu Dake Ai ga Umareru by NEWS


Even in this desert-like city a flower blooms
By shedding tears alone our story will not begin

Hold me in your arms, don't let go
Right here is a life unlike any other

Love will be born in the number of dreams
And this planet is still rotating in its path
By the beginning of another day you will no longer be alone
You can overcome destiny's cruel challenge, move forward,
together with the daybreak.

My heart is touched by the wind's nameless melody
No words can ever describe our wishes

I shall not lose my way in the most desperate times
Collecting puzzle pieces of our dream -- To the sky!

Tears will be shed in the number of rain
And this planet is still rotating in its path
The world softly turns its pages
And the sky's colours will eventually change,
together with our tears.


Even though conflicts and pains would never disappear
There's no sky that never clears after the rain, so shed no more tears
What we see, what we dream, we can change this world.


When the sky finally cease to rain
A road composed of seven colours is dashed across the sky

My heart is relaxed and I can finally be honest again I have a place to call home
A place I can return to.


Honestly, song brought me tears. :)


Yes, everyone has a place to return to. You, too. So for the very last day of the year, spend it with someone you can always return to.

If...If year 2006 is like a rainy day, surely year 2007 will be the sun which dries up the rain or tears... :)

Last entry of the year~*

Mood: Indignant
Music: Devil or Angel by NEWS

#%%$#*)_+&*(%&!@#@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is definitely not a good way to start an entry, is it? ^^;;


Alright. Last night was the most frustrating nights I had in my entire 16+ years.

I bet all NEWS fans already know that NEWS is finally BACK!!!!!!

It has been announced on 31 dec that NEWS's activities will continue with 6 members.

...

Wait a sec.

6 members?!?!?!?!?! Where're Kusano and Uchi?!

Oh. They'll be starting over as 'trainees'.


Definitely unacceptable.
How can Johnny-san aka wrinkle-san (called by some Johnnys fans) do that to Uchi and Kusano?
That's cruel.

I thought that their suspension was already a harsh enough punishment.
But right now, not only are they not able to return to NEWS and Kanjani8, they have to start as trainees.

What does Johnnys mean by trainees?!

Backdancing for seniors? Not appearing on TV programmes?!

Whatever it is, I'm totally disappointed.

NEWS is definitely NOT complete without all EIGHT members.

Last night the internet was in complete chaos. People in forums sobbing over the news, cheering about the fact that NEWS will appear at tonight's Countdown 2006-2007.

For me, I completely freaked out.

It's not a very good way to welcome a new year, neh?

Last night I couldn't care less about the time. I was busy throwing darts at X-san's photo.

Damn.




Alright. Chill....


At least 6 members will be there tonight right? At least NEWS can continue their work right? At least Kanjani8 will have 7 members right? Yeah, I'm so pleased.

Right.



Let's talk about something much more happier than that awful news.


I received a surprise this morning. haha.
You-know-who, thanks for the present. ^^


I suddenly have this horrible realization that school starts 3 days later?
*goes into depressed mode*

My OGL called me yesterday to inform of my orientation group, what to bring etc etc.

Suddenly, I really feel like throwing up.
I hate it when I have those horrible sinking feeling.
I always have that feeling when school is starting.
New faces. New people. New everything.


Then I'll start to think a lot. Will I make friends? I mean, who will want to make friends with this girl who appears invisible most of the time?

urgh.



This is REALLY the last entry of the year.


*~Sayonara Year 2006, Welcome 2007!!! ~*

Minna-san, no matter how sad or horrible year 2006 has been, it'll all be over soon.
Let's welcome the new year with a smile.

Yeap. New year = new beginning = starting over. (I wish)


Nevertheless, I hope that year 2007 will be a fantastic and wonderful year for everyone!
Smile more! Love more! :D

Thanks to everyone! + New year resolution~*

Mood: Anxious to complete this entry T_T
Music: Yuki no Hana by Nakashima Mika

I like honest people… simply because I want to be like them…

NOTE: All 'J' = :) I'm not sure why things turned out this way. haha. but to decode some words, please go to 'VIEW' and go to 'ENCODING' and select 'UTF-8' to decipher what I'm writing. haha. or else everything is just alien lang. Some symbols appeared cos I wrote '--->' so yes. i'm sorry for the mess. haha.



Ok. Here’s the long awaited entry. :D *cue to applaud*

To make things special, instead of writing things like ‘thank you for this...’ I’ll write a specific event that I rmb most clearly. J Well, everyone’s entitled to about 2 lines. Haha.

First of all, my 3o8’05 4o8’06 pals:

Wee Sze -à The time when we went to your house after Chinese O’level paper. We watched all the NC16 and M18 shows, remember? We had so much fun there. :) thanks!

Angela -à The time when we talked a lot a lot at Mac. You always lent me a listening ear. Thank you for that. J

Cindy -à The time when we sat together in a row during common test last year. And I won’t stop tickling you. Haha. Yes ‘dustbin’ whenever you like. I’ll be there. J

Pei Hua -à You brought me to GO when I had high fever. Haha. Even if they’re just little gestures, I’ll remember them.

Weina -à You gave me the ayu stickers! They’re pasted on my bedroom wall. Thanks for remembering. ;)

Kathy -à No one can be crappier than you are. Haha. Anyway, the times when we talked in the parade square are the best. Haha. And stop pinching people. :P

Jiayi -à When you noticed I was down when I cried during A Math. You offered to help me. Thanks so much. :)

Zu Hui -à The days when we talked about many things are the best. Haha. You’re always the one who notice when I have problems. Haha. Must be cos you’re a Pisces I’m a Cancer. ^^ Thank you for that. :)

Yubing -à Sports Day ’05! Haha. When we all cheered like we’re some xiao zha bo. Haha. Chewy chewy chewy chewy om papa… LOL! :D Those days great!

Pei Rong -à 4 years! You’ve been an absolutely wonderful friend! I remember the days when we used to play ‘Ji Go Pa’ at the old campus canteen, waiting for a ride. Haha. And the memorable skit we played! ‘New Beginning!’ haha. Thanks for everything! :D

Valencia -à The days in Sec 2 when we used to play a lot with Si Aun. Like the times you sat on my lap etc etc. I’ll never forget those days. J

Siong Aik -à Those days when my MSN was still working. We used to chat about everything and anything under the sun. those days were the best. J

Nicholas -à Cementhead. Nevertheless, the times when you kept locking my lock around the railings/si aun’s clothes etc. We used to chase each other around the class rmb? J Thanks for everything. You really made me smile. Haha.

Kah Jun -à My first impression of you was BAD. Haha. But I remember most clearly was when you said ‘thank you’ when I picked up your paper. I was really surprised then. haha. J

Wei Xiang -à Definitely the musical. Haha. We were panicking backstage when something went wrong on stage. Haha.

Huang Jian -à When you bought us Ferrero Rocher as a return gift. J I was really really touched. Haha. Thanks for that.

Ivan -à You never fail to bring the class spirit up. You’re always trying. Haha and the things you told me. I’ll always remember them. J

Jason -à Chemistry group leader. Haha. We seldom talk to each other, but for the fact that you’re an efficient leader, I thank you. J

Ernest -à Musical again? Haha. You were a wonderful Prince. J and the ride home. Haha. Thanks!

Kai Sheng -à Everything. J It’s really good to know that you remember me. Haha. And of course, thanks for putting so many AYU pictures on the class noticeboard! Haha.

Wai Hou -à In sec 2, when we used to play a lot. And we even visited the zoo together, remember? For being there for me in the past, thank you. J

Eng Ngee -à You brought laughter to our class! Haha. And thanks for the Christmas wish this year. Haha.

Shon Fan -à For being 0.5cm taller than me ONLY. Haha. Joking la. But you’ve been a good friend, always bringing laughter to me. J

Jun Liang -à There’re just too many reasons for me to thank you. You brought me laughter, cared for me when I was ill, accompanied me to school etc etc. You’re the best. Really. Haha. I miss those days when we went to school together. Haha. Thank you. J

Alvin -à Thanks for doing the things that need to be done. Haha. And your comments. Yeap. Thanks. J

Yi Hang -à I can’t possibly write everything here, can I? There’re way too many things to thank you for. I esp remember the days we came to school together with Jun Liang/Waihou/Dallan/Valentino. I owe you way too much. You’re really the BEST.

Darrel -à Telling me it’ll be ok when I told you my fears about O’s. You’re a very reliable friend. Haha. Thanks for everything. You really added laughter to my life. J

Chee Wee -à Being such a lamer in class. Haha. You know what, I really like the lame things you did/said. Haha. Thanks. :)

Boon Kiat -à There’re a lot of things to say to you. But well, thanks for showing care and concern in an un-noticeable way. Haha. And the reason to thank you will be the time when we worked in a group (during first week of sec 3?) with Joyce and Weina. You really made me laugh.

Li Qian -à HAHA. You’ve been a fantastic friend. Ok just name an incident rite? The time when we went to the arcade for class outing. We paired up for the hockey thing and lost badly. Haha. You were really nice. You still are.



PHEW! I spent super long writing that. Let me take a break. Haha.

Ok. Here it goes!

1o5’03 2o5’04
Everybody -à THANK YOU!!! Be it a big event or a small incident that brought us close together, I thank all of you for it. Special thanks to my dearest pals. See Lek, Si Aun, Sharine, Xueli, Xinfang, Eunice, Eugenia, Jew Ee, Valentino etc etc. (I don’t have enough brainpower to name all. Haha. You know who you are.)


NHCHOIR!!!
Everybody -à Please continue to shine on! Choir rocks because of all of you. J Remember, let our voice touch the audience. Haha. Next year’s SYF year. Please jiayou! J


Aileen-à
Thanks for everything! You’ve been an awesome senpai (senior in Japanese)! Haha. You never fail to give me good advices J Whenever a person ask me who’s my favourite senpai, it’ll definitely be you. Thanks for remembering your kouhai (junior in Japanese). I wish you happiness from the bottom of my heart. Have a wonderful year ahead! J



Yuntian + Bernice + Serene + Zoumei -à
You guys just rock! J We really shared tears and laughter. Everytime we step on stage, we would definitely give one another an encouraging look. Everytime we step off stage, we’ll go into ‘crying’ mode. Haha. Thanks for everything. Choir has never been so enjoyable before you guys appeared in my life. J


Karen -à
11 years! I can’t write out everything here, dude! Haha. You know it best. You always notice when I’m feeling down, when I’m feeling sian or upset. I don’t need to say it all out for you to understand. J The ridiculous mails we send to each other, the crazy typos. Haha. Videos, songs etc etc. You always bring me laughter, you know? We might see each other for 24/7, and probably not as often as we see our classmates, but we always know that when we need something to lean on, it’s each other. J Our friendship sign or whatever. (the one when we made when we were super young) Haha. The letters and all. You’re the one who knows me inside out. Haha. To me, you’re like my younger sister. When you feel threatened or afraid or helpless, me, as a big sister, will definitely help you. J But of cos, you’re always there to calm my nerves. We’re both pessimistic. But when it comes to each other, we’ll show the positive side. Haha. Our friendship is neverending. Everlasting Love. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you. J

Lingxi and Huiming -à
Although we see one another only once or twice a year, things just don’t seem to change between us. Haha. We can always talk non-stop about our school, ghost stories (to freak Huiming out) or perverts we meet outside. Haha. All of us just seem as gossip-y as the past. Haha. For all the most wonderful times, thank you! :D

Weicheng -à
I thought I lost contact with all 6R ppl (besides LX and HM). But at least you still remember me. J haha. For all the things you said to me, the times when we hung out and watched movies. Haha. Thank you for everything! Continue reading this (boring as math) blog and tagging! Keep me updated with your things too! ;)

Raphael -à
RAP!!! Although we only seen each other once, you’ve been like a big brother to me. Haha. Of cos, must thank Karen for that. Haha. Thanks for always remembering my birthday etc etc. Remember, I’ll always be there for you too. Whenever you feel like speaking to someone, sms/mail/yahoo/tag me! (though my phone’s really jialat) haha. :P

YEEYAN + JOYCE + SERENE -à
Ok. My braincells are dying. Haha. But how can I leave out my bestest clique?!

Thanks for everything! And I mean everything! The times when we first started hanging out in sec 3, always cracking lame jokes (ok la, maybe that applies to me and yeeyan), behaving as if we’ve lost our minds (that applies to Serene) and singing ridiculous songs (that’s Joyce. Ok la and me. Haha)

We always stood by one another. There might be times when others don’t understand why we are so close, there might be times when we hurt ourselves, or when we’re hurt or misunderstood, but definitely, knowing that we still have one another to lean on, makes all the pain go away.

It all used to be ‘I and me’ but now, everything is ‘We and Us’. It’s wonderful to have known you girls. It must have been the miracle of destiny for us to meet. I’ve been really really lucky to meet you girls. J We’re going to different schools starting from next year, but I hope that everything will remain as they are.

When Yeeyan + Serene + Joyce + Jasmine, we get Mugendai (infinity in Japanese)


To everyone else out there:
Even if we don’t know each other’s name, or we’ve only spoken a few lines to each other, I thank you for passing by my life. I’m made up of who I meet. I treasure every meeting with anybody. Even if you dislike me or what, as long as we’ve met or you’re reading this, I’ll give you my best wishes.


Now, the best part. Haha. New year resolution top 17 (for 16 - 17 years alive)

Be more diligent
Be tidier
Respect everyone who respects me
Learn to cherish everyone and everything around me

Best wishes to everyone out there! :)

Looking at myself~*

Mood: Frustrated at blogger.com ><
Music: Kimi ga hohoemu Naru (Fushigi Yuugi OST)


I wish I can stop taking you for granted...


The previous entry is published by my dearest Karen. haha.
Blogger.com just detests my com.
Well, lots more websites detest it too. -__-""



Death Note 2 rocks!
The ending is really really incredible. :D
Everyone, please watch it.
I give it 4.5 stars out of 5.
Definitely a MUST-WATCH. :)


It's strange.
Cos in a blink of an eye, holidays are over.
Year 2007 is coming.
NEWS is returning. :)


I've got tons to write when I couldn't access blogger.com,
but now that I can write, I've got nothing to say.


This year's not exactly a good year for me.
Year 2006 seemed non-existent.
Maybe cos this year was spent on studying.
I can't really remember much from this year.


OH YES.
I still owe everyone an entry specially dedicated to everyone.
Tml I shall spend a few hours writing it. haha.


These days I had this mad thought ---> Jogging alone along the canal listening to my shuffle.

HAHAHA. Since when does Jasmine exercise?! (other than shopping. HEHE)


I realized it would be cool to look at myself through the eyes of another person.


For example:

Today I went to visit Jasmine. God, was her room messy! The things were thrown everywhere! And I mean EVERYWHERE. No wonder her mum gets pissed everyday.

She ate roti-prata for breakfast. She's such a pig. I bet she's gained lots of weight since holidays started.

By the way, I really hate the way she hates herself.



Uh-huh. I love the last ling though. HAHA.



Alright. 3 days to year 2007!

I'm not excited, at all. -___-

Troubles

Mood: resigning to fate
Current music: REALIZE by Melody

We always don’t mean what we say…

Alright. When you read this entry, it’s probably decades after I wrote it.
Cos the internet is SOOOO slow, I can’t seem to even enter blogger.com.
And that sucks. ><

These days, there’re 1879564 reasons for me to feel bad about my life.

1. School starting.
AHHHHH. School. This word gives me the creeps. A new environment. New faces. New everything. But the worst part of this is that there’s such thing called ‘ORIENTATION’. AHHH. I’ve never liked those things. Cos I know I’ll just be embarrassed during all those games. And everyone says JC life’s tough. I’m not even prepared for the many obstacles ahead.

Yeah. I’m just trying to run away.

2. O’s results
Yesterday, I had a good talk with my clique (Yeeyan, Serene, Joyce). Everything just seemed so hopeless. What kinda freaking results would I be getting? I don’t even WANT to think about it.

Let’s face it. I was never smart and will never be. I ought to be prepared for the horrendous results but somehow no matter how much I prepare for the worst, it’s impossible to -

Jas: *tears open the envelope* 27 points? OH. That’s alright. I’ve expected at least a 30. AHAHAHAHAHAHA.


You know? I’ll probably lock myself in my room and cry for days and nights. Because the thing is, it’s not that I DIDN’T STUDY. If I didn’t study, I would’ve no right to cry and weep and feel bad about the results cos I deserve it. But the thing is that I’ve given my best shot and yet I can’t seem to imagine getting good results. This sucks.

All the math formulae pasted on my bedroom wall will remind me of the times when I forced myself to work on math. No matter how much I wanted to run away, how much I wanted to sleep or just tear math TYS into shreds. And just thinking about the days when I actually faced O’s with determination brings tears. Yes. It hurts.

If I knew I would get terrible results, I shouldn’t even have studied in the first place.
Sometimes, I just want to shake my head and admit that I’ve been a fool to study so hard.


Eh? How come I sound like I’ve taken back my results and realize I’ve got a 27? Haha.


3. Piano
My dad seems to think that my life’s all about piano. He gets all worked up when he doesn’t find me in my room faithfully practicing the piano.

I mean, since when is he home to hear me play piano?!

Sometimes, I really think my dad doesn’t think I’m the ‘good’ daughter he wants me to become.



When I already have those 3 points, do I even need a 4?


Let’s talk about something BESIDES the problems I’m facing cos it’s really unlike me to complain about my life here.


FRUITS BASKET book 21 is simply great! :D (ahh. One thing to be glad about)

I actually read till a point when I nearly cried.
And it’s not cos someone died or someone loves someone else other than the other someone.

It’s always because I’m moved by the strength the characters have.
The words they say. Their determination.

I want to become like that…


Tohru: No matter how happy the times are, they will eventually end. Similarly, the sad times will end. They definitely will end. Even if you don’t believe what I say, please don’t ever give up. Live on. Even if you took the wrong turn in life, just take it that you’re walking the longer road. No matter what, you must continue to live on.


Ahhh. I was really touched. T^T

(music changed to Peace of Mind (off vocal version))

Last thing, a late Christmas present: (I loved this song. J)

Can you feel this Christmas? (NEWS version)

This year again in this town
The bell's sounds are resounding
They quickly pass away
I gazed at the calendar

Like the cloudy sky that becomes clear
If I realize.. You were over there
I want to say "Thank you"
Without a sound the miracle flew down

The eyes that looked up reflected in the sky
The secret light is overflowing
We are gazing gently
During this time A very merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas

Free light, A small earth
On this day the world feels like it's getting closer
Can't cout them, in the meeting by chance
For sure it'll become someone's present

One of these days, everything will be forgiven
The boundary line will dissolve
While wishing for something to become one
The world sings
In this Christmas

Becuase a new time is near
Let's be like this without letting go
Even your loved ones, Even people you don't know
Exchange smiles
Can you feel this Christmas?
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas!~*

Mood: Peaceful.
Music: Sorairo (Fruits Basket OST)


Sometimes won't you wish you're part of a couple?
And, once you're part of a couple, you can't seem to notice anything around you anymore.
isn't that good?
Even forget about the person next to you who hadn't smiled the whole time, obviously upset about a certain something, fidgetting all the time. while that person listened to you faithfully.
And the tears that were threatening to fall.
isn't it good? It's awesome.

This is the 16th christmas I'm celebrating. :)


Minna, enjoy yourselves today and tomorrow! Go wild! Parties! Log cakes! Turkeys! Ham! Salad! Christmas trees! haha.

This year's christmas is exceptionally cooling.


I LOOOOVE IT!


If only it snows. Nah. That's way too freaky.



The good news:
Finally, I got my ipod shuffle 2nd generation.
It's really REALLY small. O.O
and cute. haha.



The bad news:

My house was bloody affected during the power failure.
Geez. I was still enjoying myself at orchard with yeeyan during the time of the power failure.
And when I got home, my mum practically screeched into my ear.


Mum: POWER FAILURE!
Jas: ??
Mum: The TV!
Jas: ?????????
Mum: It's RED in colour!!!!!!
Jas: o.O;; hannya?? wth?? (hannya = wth. in japanese. ppl who watched MBMH will understand. LOL)


The colour of the fonts is a bloody RED. The colour of ppl's faces is green! blue! Purple!

Hannya?!


And the SCV thing just can't stop blinking.

Everything's down.



I had to resist the urge to eat up the TV.


Just when I thought that. Phew. At least I have a computer, it crashed.


WHAT'S THE WORLD COMING TO?!?!?!!?


Windows close by themselves,cursor moves by itself, keyboard types by itself (nah. the keyboard part didn't happen)


These days, I depend too much on these things. TV and com. They're my life!

:(

Wanna hear a sadder story?


Last morning I was trying to turn on the SCV thing.

Jess: Turn off the switch and turn it on again.
Jas: *did as she was told*
-It started flickering-
Jess: damn. maybe we should just forget about it.
Jas: Maybe we should turn it off before it explodes...
SCV: CHINK! PIANG! CLING! CLANK! BOOOOOM!!!!!! *and a blinding flash of light was seen* *A smell of burnt wire was detected.* *Jas thought she saw smoke rising from it*
J&J: O.O!!!


gone case.



Btw, yesterday, went out with cousins and sister. Had dinner at Sakae.
Goodness. I was so full, I had to be dragged out of that place.
Had this tempura ramen, small bowl of soba, tempura ice cream, chawanmushi, salmon sushi, unagi sushi, green tea.

I thought I was dying. @_@


Orchard's flooded with people.
It was really annoying to be elbowed by a million people.

Then we had supper at LJS. LOL.
The skin-on potato chips with salsa cheese is great! :D


Btw, did I mention that the we bought a new DVD burner?

Probably the only good thing. tsk.

Diamond Dust...~*




















Do you guys know what's this? Alright. sorry for writing so many entries in a day, but I suddenly got inspired. haha.

It's DIAMOND DUST.

Relax, Final Fantasy fans, but this is the REAL Diamond Dust. As in it happens.

Diamond dust is the name commonly used to refer to a ground-level cloud composed of tiny ice crystals. This meteorological phenomenon is also referred to simply as ice crystals and is reported in the METAR code as IC. Diamond dust generally forms under otherwise clear or nearly clear skies, so it is sometimes referred to as clear-sky precipitation. It is most commonly observed in Antarctica and the Arctic, but it can occur anywhere with a temperature well below freezing. In Polar regions diamond dust may continue for several days without interruption.

(taken from wikipedia)

Let me translate that. haha.

It's a phenomenon whereby crystals are suspended in the air instead of water vapour. So it appears as if diamonds are suspended in the air.

So if you're walking and see you this, it seems as if you're surrounded by diamonds.


:)


Suddenly, it hit me like a wave. How beautiful the world actually is. :) If only we stopped to look.

Random pictures of the day!


the OTHER ayu in A BALLADS Posted by Picasa

Ok. this is so random. haha. AYUMI in A BALLADS. :D Posted by Picasa

A random picture. haha. no one will ever know wth we were doing at that time. haha. Karen&Jas. Karen can't even look at the screen. haha. Posted by Picasa

Days of our lives~*

Mood: Happy.
Music: SUPER DRIVE (Gravitation anime OST)


I'll be happy if my friends are happy. :) (although this does not happen EVERY SINGLE time but yeah.)

First, CONGRATULATIONS TO KAREN!!!!!
I knew you can do it! Now u have one less thing to worry about. haha.
&

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, KAREN!!!!!
I couldn't get hold of the com in time to wish you happy birthday. Damn it. haha. but anyway, stay cool, funky always! And may lady luck follow you always! She did follow you today, didn't she? haha.

I'll reply the tags later on in the entry. :)


Not much things happened in the past few days.



I was feeling pretty sick. Must've been the rain AGAIN. tsk. Serene, did you feel alright? haha.
well, the outing with Serene was HILARIOUS. haha. Perhaps cos we were both drenched (partially) in the rain while making our way to cdans AND THEN to our horror, it was PACKED with people. To the extent that there's no free lane at all! haha. So we have come in vain. WTH?! Things like that keep happening these days. haha.

We went shopping before that and managed to find bags. haha. At first, I was so horrified to realise that the bag that I loved is no longer there. I ALMOST wanted to eat up serene. haha. (although it's not her fault, you can feel my frustration, neh?!) Then we went bag-hunting from Heeren to Far East. It's always at Far East when I can find suitable things. (although the bag i wanted is spotted in Heeren)

And really, the legendary serene eats at the speed of... light? (O.O) haha.

Thanks serene, for tolerating my frustration at that time. haha.


Saturday:

Piano! I was panicking on Saturday cos I realised I've got 4 pages of theory undone. Damn. No matter how much I try to like Theory, it just makes me sleep. And I had to practise the exam pieces and the new song 'REVERIE'. It's super nice! And hard too.

Tell you guys something, something nice is ALWAYS accompanied with a high level of difficulty.

I was feeling really awful that day. Headache.Nausea.



Jas: I'm feeling really really awful. Headache and nausea.
Karen: Are you pregnant?!


Hey karen, how did you figure that out? (I'm not yeeyan. HAHA.)



Anyway, I was pretty HENG that day since my teacher's in a really good mood. cos the performance's OVER and she's really relieved and it's the last lesson of the year. REJOICE!!


She even went to the extent to give me the'Shiroi no koi bito' chocolate... BOX.
(she knows I love collecting these sweet wrappers etc etc)
I've eaten one piece before and it's HEAVENLY.
It's bought from Hokkaido. One of the most famous chocolates over there.
Anyway, Shiroi no koi bito (sp) = White lovers.
There's a story behind it but I shall not elaborate further.


Piano went well. :)


then I met mum for dinner.
Had japanese food. the soft shell crab tastes wonderful! :D
Alright. I'm getting a little hungry.


After that, I plastered my eyes on the com when I reached home.



Sunday:

It's just com com and com.

Me and sis compiled a Christmas CD together. It contains all the top Christmas songs we've heard of. Gackt and Ayu each have 2 songs inside. haha. the other artistes are iroiro (Japanese for many/diff types)

Sundays are ALWAYS boring. Except for the fact that dad will cook us lunch. Which is always sandwich. -___-""" haha. Nvm. Dad will accompany us and joke with us. So I'm alright with it. haha. As long as we still talk, laugh and joke together, even if I have to eat those NOT EXACTLY DELICIOUS sandwiches, it's fine with me. haha.

When mum came home from work,

Jess: Let's watch SAW!!!
Jas: *groans* won't you ever get sick of it?!
Jess: It's alright what! It's a good show. :D
Jas: No. Count me out. Mum, stop her!
Mum: huh?
Jess: Watch SAW!!
Mum: No.
Jas: *triumphant look* ha!
Jess: why not?!
Mum: You don't have the SAW III, am I right? Then I'm not interested.
J&J: -______-"""""



Monday(today):

I was being forced to wake up at...9 to wait for my sister's bloody package to arrive. Damn.

Watched some TV shows, read a book, and now I'm here using the com.





Life might seem meaningless now, something meaningful will definitely come out of these meaningless days. Zettai. (japanese for definitely) :)



random fact:
When I typed 'REJOICE' just now, the cold joke I thought of years ago just came back to me. My friends should know I'm writing about. haha. re-JOYCE! SAMUI! (samui=japanese for cold)


Jasmine is still as SAMUI as ever. She can freeze the entire room in a second. haha.



Anyone's fridge down? I won't mind helping out. :D




Messages:
Serene: woah! you wanna flood my tagboard izzit? hahaha. Anyway, of cos u're slow. you're always behind time when it comes to my blog. hahaha. and well, sometimes splurge is good too. I want to spend money sometimes. haha. yup, no one is perfect. But i yearn for some warmth at least. And I'm searching for it. Right now. :) At first I was like 'LOT 1?!?!?!' den it dawned on me it's 1 Litre of Tears. that show's super sad leh. I rather watch AP. haha. and what? who says no one wants you?! haha. you never know. :)


Aileen: thanks! :D Take care lots! and best wishes for your relationship. :)

Karen: don't remind me. that school's starting. shit. :(

Ways to spice up my (already dying) blog~*

Mood: Something has to change!
Music: Hanashitaku wa nai (T-Bolan)by Gackt

Everyday, every night...

Say I'm pro.

I managed to read my archives all the way from the very first entry to the very last.
And I got this bloody headache after that.

I realised I should change my font or something. haha.
More read-friendly. (LOL)


I've stopped updating all the outings and the things I do outside this house.
Ahhh... no wonder things are getting a little boring.
This blog seems ultra boring and dead.


Let me spice it up a little.

1. The SONIC game on the right hand corner. You know? I really suck at games like this. haha. I'll either kill myself by knocking right into the crab or run past all the rings I'm supposed to take. (wth?!) TSK.



2. A new countdown thing. hahaha. 212 days?!



3. Edited minor things.



4. New font.



5. More pictures. Picture says a thousand words. But this blogger uploading thing sucks the life out of me. It gives me the urge to eat the entire PC up. 'Hello' does a better job, but recently it's just @#$$%#$@%@@#%.



6. More more interesting things. But too bad the writer herself is a boring (until cannot be any more boring) person. So let's just ignore point 6.




7. errr..... I can't think of anything else. Uploading songs and videos for download? But come on, I guess no one here is an Ayu fan (besides me.).




Nevermind. I shall work hard and find ways to make this dead blog more alive.


Meanwhile, take care everyone!


Song of the Day: ---

Random fact: When I was young, I used to have phobia for TV commercials. There was this commercial which freaked the hell outta me (it was an insurance commercial). Ever since then, I would hide under the table when commercials start. One day, I mustered my courage and decided to watch that stupid commercial. So right now, I can fearlessly watch every single (no matter how eerie, lame or stupid) commercial.

That's a short story on how I overcome that fear. haha.


...TsK. When can I stop being so stupid?!

everything...~*

Mood: so cool, so bright, feel so good... (nanairo no ashita by BoA)
Music: Nanairo no Ashita ~Brand new Beat~ by BoA

Alright. I just saw my posting result for PAE.


ANDERSON JC SCIENCE.


The first reaction I had when I saw that was 'OH'.
Then I was overwhelmed with relief. :)

the second reaction was to feel this strange feeling of dread.
What if I can't make it to AJ with my horrendous O's result? (O.O)

*groans*

I've absolutely zero confidence to do well for O's so yeah...

Forget it. Let's enjoy the first one and a half months of JC life. :)


And right now, I just received this terrible news. NOOOOO!!!
(yihang, i'm gonna kill you for this. why like this?! it's been... 4 years and will become 4 years and one and a half months of rumors? *pulls out all my hair* but, still, congrats. and cya nxt yr. (T^T) I'm still glad we're in the same school. as good friends. still. :))


Alright, these days I can't blog cos there's something wrong with my com. yes. again. haiz.


So I've got tons and tons to update.

1. Birthday Wishes

*~Happy belated birthday to JOYCE (JLWQ)! Best wishes and good luck in life! Remember I'll always be there for you. Smile lots! :D~*

*~Happy belated birthday to Shon Fan! (although u're taller than me by 0.5cm doesnt mean u can trip me all the time. haha) take care always! :D~*

*~Happy birthday Jiayi! All the best in everything you do! Stay cool and funky always! :D~*



2. I've had ENOUGH with the ants in my house. They've invaded 99% of my belongings. Those beastly little things... I'm gonna launch an Extermination campaign.

(song changed to School Rumble Forever. This song gets on my nerves sometimes. It just goes
school school rumble!
hey hey hey yo yo yo yo hey hey hey hey ahhh~~)

(song immediately changed to 'Sayonara' by Changin' my life)


3. Games at www.albinoblacksheep.com are super lame. but enjoyable. haha. right, Karen? :)

4. The shopkeeper nearby Karen's house is pervertic, I tell you. He... he... nevermind. Stop laughing, Karen.

5. My boss my hero is a good show. fine, serene. haha. It made me laugh for a few hours straight. :D


Guess what, I've completely forgotten what I'm supposed to update about.

Gomene, minna. (^^;;)


6. These days Ayu's news seem to be 60% bad. Tsk. But come on, I don't care if Ayu is still number one Jpop Queen or what. What matters most is that her presence, the legend she has created was, is and will be still here. :)


7. Oh yes! the piano performance. How can I forget that? *slaps forehead*

When I reached there (the cristofori showroom) there was quite a number of people there already. I saw Wang Xuan and smiled at her.

Then I hid in a corner flipping through my scores frantically. My mind was completely blank and I was thinking:

Since when is this part played like this?!
HUH? What's this?!
Errr... this part or that part first?!

My palms were sweating already.

Then more people walked in.

The sisters came and played a bit on this $10000+ piano.

My pulse raced. Then the older sister gave me an encouraging smile.

I must have looked as if I were about to faint. haha.

My heart almost leapt out of my throat.

Then Zhimian came and played a bit.

It was already 4+ and guess what, Vera's not here yet. o.O

Then I had a chat with Wang Xuan. My voice was practically shaking.

Then Vera arrived. (thank goodness)

(music changed to Syunikiss by Malice Mizer)

The person in charge announced through the microphone that it's starting soon.

Alright. anyway, after that, when it was finally my turn to play, I nearly died.

But I still finished that piece. Thank goodness I didn't make major mistakes. :)

Then Miss Iris came and told us many encouraging words. Btw, she looked gorgeous that day. :)

After that, we waved goodbye to Miss Iris and Zhi Mian and I left with Wang Xuan, since she's heading to bukit batok anyway.

On the way we chatted about lotsa things---> studies, piano, choir (yes she's a choir member too)
She told me many things that I didn't realize. About myself.

WX: you seem to know a lot of Miss Iris's students. You know Zhimian too?

WX: you're so tall, you look really mature. :)

WX: you're so thin, you look like a runner. haha. :)

At first I just laughed. But after that I realized something.

In my point of view, I'm short, unfriendly, chubby and even childish at times.
But in her point of view, I'm the opposite.
Sometimes, there're just too many things that we ourselves don't see.
We're blinded by so many things, constantly comparing ourselves with others.
We'll slowly neglect the things we have.

Why do we always envy others but not cherish the things we have?


Anyway, I want to congratulate everyone who took part in the performance. For doing a great job. :) And thanks for those encouraging smiles and words. I'm truly touched. :)


And I surprised myself.

While I was playing, I thought I heard a little boy say it's not nice.

If it were the real Jasmine, I would've been deeply hurt by his words.

But instead, I wanted to laugh.

I wanted to go over and tell him: yeah! I think so too! haha.

I felt I was detached from my body.
Like I'm the one watching myself play the piano.

I realized I might have become less vulnerable to negative comments.

I hope... haha.


8. (song changed to NATURALLY by Ayu)

Lastly, messages!

JLWQ: thanks for the encouraging words you told me regarding the depressing entries. they mean a lot a lot to me. Thanks. Yes, I believe those words. :)

Ivan: Thanks! haha. Suddenly it feels as if we've become good friends or something. haha. and please. UPDATE YOUR BLOG.

Serene, Nicholas, Darrel, Jason, Yixuan (from 4o9), Yihang: see you guys in AJ next year! :)

Aileen: heyz! We'll meet in the same school again! haha. :D Meanwhile, take care of yourself. :)

Anonymous (the tagboard): I still wanna thank you once more. Thanks for those words... :)

Karen: I've got tons to tell you. Firstly, please remember that I'll NEVER NEVER NEVER LOOK DOWN ON YOU. I dont care about what ITE what Normal what Sec 5. You must know that no matter what, you're someone I respect a lot. Academic is just the surface. What matters most is deep down. Please have faith in yourself. You've worked hard so you'll definitely make it. :) If friends are friends just because the person's in a prestigious school, that's not friendship anymore. Remember, I'll always be there for you. Good luck, for nxt monday. I hope to see you smile instead of cry. :D


Song of the Day: A Song is Born (by ayumi hamasaki)
Remember, just one more time
how we were born, crying, into this world.
Your dreams and hopes for tomorrow
are all in this world. (this song is written for the 911 incident on world peace.)


Random fact: My Boss My Hero reminded me of a certain someone... wherever you are, whatever you are doing, take care.

Updates~*

Mood: relieved but will be nervous soon. (do you even know what am I talkin about? haha.)
Music: For Fruits Basket (Fruits Basket OST)

Whenever I enter my own blog, just a glance of the previous 2 super depressing entries makes me depressed. haha. I'm sure you are also feeling the same way. I thought of deleting them but, nah. that'll be very fake, won't it? haha.

Yoshaa.

I've restored most of my energy.

I need lotsa energy to talk about the following topic:


Yesterday's piano rehearsal

Lol. On my way there, I was already panicking. To the extent that I nearly forgot to alight from the train. And while walkin to my teacher's house, my heart was pounding so hard, I thought I might die.

Then when I reached the void deck. I paused there for approximately 5 mins.

For what?

To try and remember which floor my teacher stays. =___="""

I mean, how bad can things get?

When I reached, I was surprised to find myself the first person to arrive. And it was already 3.45pm. So I had a good chat with my teacher regarding a baby grand piano. haha.

Then the sisters arrived next. They seemed so calm! I was the complete opposite of them. :(

Then the very pro girl (grade 8) came, followed by 2 other girls, one of which is Vera, whom my teacher kept mentioning to me.

(music changed to Brise by Malice Mizer)

Teacher: Vera is number one in worrying, and you're number two. *points at me*

Me? oh. haha.

Vera looked so nervous, if I wasn't nervous myself, I would really want to go and give her a pat on her shoulder.

Then, several small kids came. They're really adorable. :D

When the very pro girl went to play,

my tension level was 8/10. slowly rising.

Next, when the small girl went to play,

tension level 9/10

When Vera went to play, (before that we exchanged a worried smile) I was so afraid she'll break down. She sat there for nearly 5 mins, taking deep breaths. But she played it very well. :D After that she sat next to me and she gave me a 'I'm soooo dead' look but I gave her the friendliest smile I could make despite the HUGE amount of stress I'm feeling.

tension level 10/10

The other girl went to play.

tension level 12/10

The kids played after her

tension level 15/10


Ms Iris: Your turn. ^-^

My heart nearly stopped.

NO WAY!!!!


But I still made my way to the piano. It seemed so big all of a sudden.

I sat there for 1 mins +++, took deep breaths, tried to remember what I was playing, then I just went for it.

My teacher flashed me the widest grin she has ever given me since this year.
I went back to my seat, all shrunk up.
I didn't dare to look at Vera, although I know she'll smile at me.
It was terrible. I made mistakes. I wasn't aware of my speed, although I tried to bring out the contrast. By the way, the piece I'm playing is 'Bulgarian Dance by Bartok'.


BAAAAAHHHH. Absolutely disastrous.

But strangely, my teacher seemed PRETTY satisfied with it. (o.o;;)

After me was the two sisters.

the ending with Canon was great. ^^


After everything ended,
my teacher requested to see Vera.
I felt horrible for her at that time...
Seems like she was not too pleased with her.

Vera, hopefully the both of us can pull through this sunday neh? ^_~


2. I'm currently reading this book ---> Alysson's Shoes by Margaret Leroy.
Absolutely darling! Fantastic book. It's about this female psychiatrist who discharged a schizophrenic patient, thinking she's well enough to be discharged, but it turned out to be a deadly error of judgement. Her life's completely shattered after that.

A really good book! Once you start reading, you can't put it down.


3. *~HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY LINGXI and WEICHENG~*

Due to the past few days of depression, I didn't wish you 2 happy birthday online. But you guys received my message didn't you? :D

It just hit me all of a sudden that I didnt wish Liqian happy birthday here as well. >_<


4. Christmas is really coming!

(song changed to Itsuka no Merry Christmas by Gackt and Ayumi :D)

Have you started planning for Christmas? ^^


5. Lately I'm doing nothing other than PIANO, reading, computer, Tv or go out with friends.
I really should've found a job, yeah? haha. Oh no. Don't talk about the tutor job. haha.

6. Get well soon, Serene. ^_^ Dolphin pillow might help you get well faster. haha.

7. Sunday................ *prays hard* I can feel my heart beating faster just listening to that word. I'm gonna get a copy of the newspaper today (I don't even know when it's published! As in the article! O.O but definitely it's a small small tiny article. *calms down a little*)


8. Finally, a hangout with my cousins. Christmas celebration with them in advance.

9. anybody realized that 14 December is coming real soon? O.O


10. Current ranking of 'Secret' tracks

1. Kiss o' Kill
2. 1 Love
3. Secret
4. Labyrinth
5. JEWEL



(Music changed to Lalala Love Song (Long Vacation OST))


Alright. I'm off to practise my piano! :) Even after the performance, I've got exam pieces to brush up.

Take care everybody~*

Random fact: Handphones don't cause cancer (I bet everyone knows about it already. haha.) I can see many phone bills rising.

Song of the Day: 1 Love

It's my nature to always get out of a line somehow
If you want to sting me, feel free as you like with sharp words
I can't follow a person ahead of me

To live is to keep on choosing always with our hands
If you want to interrupt me, feel free to your heart's content with words or whatever
I don't waver with such things

(such powerful lyrics...)
