When Nothing may seem like everything

2008-07-04T19:26:00.000-07:00

Today, woke up at anytime that i want because THERE IS NO CROSS TRG FOREVER AND EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yes..have been waiting for this day like for 3 years. Also, would be going for my last swimming trg later on in the afternoon..hurray. Now to just figure out what sports to join in JC so that i will not grow fat-ter. Anyway, watched Born into Brothels yesterday night. Really impactful and a little disturbing at some points. Great admiration for those kids who though born in the red light district of India managed to still find joy through the camera's eye. Fantastic documentary, definitely on my recommendation list!

Have to make my way to the Club now..bye.

life without quek...

2008-06-06T00:55:00.001-07:00

"ehhh..you ask mr ng whether can do 4k instead of 8k lar..will die one!"

First trg without mr quek was well, more tiring than usual. We had to do 3 sets of strengthening which i did not mind. BUT. Graces an i finally after a whopping 10 months, stepped onto the Northern route in Macritchie..it was super tiring man, 8km last year was chicken feet, now took so much effort to complete (or not..heheh). Anyway, it would be VERY interesting to see how trg will be like tmr..cause mr quek will be there trg RJ, RI and RV and Mg will be on the sidelines figuring out our trg with mr ng, i hope there is some drama..that will be fun. I think.

Monday
Outing with melin, lianne and ttm. Grace fong could not meet up in the end, so sad. Anyway, went to chinatown for lunch and bead/buttons shopping. Then headed to haji lane, which was super cool! Loved the shop called 3 cause it had a sliding glass door which is activated by a button. Melin and lianne (rich kids) bought stuff, then we all headed to thieve's market where ttm bought a $20 handphone (incl charger) for her bro. I was so intently eying a old vintage camera which was made in Germany and in working condition. But it was out of my budget, so sad. Lianne bought this video thingy for her cous and a pair of binoculars that weighs a ton.

My buys:
1) A button (seriously)
2) Owl figurine bead and coral coloured leather straps to match.

Bought ice cream cake at island creamery (met davelle on the way) for dad's birthday on tuesday which was fun cause we got to go to the Mountbatten Room at the club and what irked me was that there were no prices on the menu. And i dont like caviar, its fishy. Well, overall great dinner and nice toilet (k, whatever).

the past few days..

2008-05-31T04:33:00.000-07:00

Friday
too much food..too little time. Bio breakfast, lit picnic then recess..whoa..like major food overload. Brought Sweet chilli and sour cream Nosh chips, loved melins' ben and jerry's and lianne's mac and cheese in particular. Luckily later was some tough trg so can burn off excess calories. 30x 100 fly, no shit..luckily he cut down to 20..i seriously need to train up for school nats on the 1st of july, didn't think it was that early, ah wells. Chemistry SPA was fine, slept for like 10 min, checked, went back to stone and cheryl's head. oh, and our cross coach is leaving us..byebye mr quek. Thanks for so much, i think.

Today
Woke up at 9 today cause there was no cross trg, went to the Club to finish up lit essay, have one more to go. Watched siblings at tennis trg, played the Wii boxing and baseball, super fun, had salad buffet. Then off to dragon boating where it was raining with thunder and lightning forcing our boat to take shelter under a bridge before heading back. Then melin and i took a walk to Kallang Leisure Park where we had subway. Melin's parents then gave me a ride to my grandparents' house which i am in now..had big dinner, very full.

Can't wait for monday's outing with ttm and grace fong and possibly melin and lianne. Thieve's market, haji lane, mustafa and chinatown..all the weird hidden treasures of singapore...we have similar interests, liking quirky, interesting stuff over seemingly glamourous branded things.

THAT GIRL IS SERIOUSLY CRRAZZZYY!

She topped like the whole class for almost all the subjects and got all A1 except for chinese i think. What is her secret? 1 and a half years seating next to moi..haha, no lar. Anyway, i did not fail english but i was so pissed with myself for not getting a A1 for it, pulled my L1R5 down by loads. Rush to complete DSA application to IB as soon as possible, called grandma to rmb to ask Grand Aunt to accept me into AC. Have so much Hw it is not even funny man, chinese, lit, physics, chem SPA....luckily/unluckily, chem is the only remedial lesson we have next week, our class is trying to persuade him to cancel it tmr since we did so well for chem, msg 2.oo, fanatastic 4G!!

Melin brought ben and jerry's for the class today, went for swimming trg finally, almost died. Cross trg tmr, hopefully i can still rmb to do drills, not like i do them anyway. Dragon boating this saturday, missed the time trials last sat because of my tuition (sacked her already), sry melin. Try to get into the boat for next year,k ? Going to watch some stuff online, may have an early night.

Oh, i need a new camera. Just thought you should know. DAD! IF YOU ARE SNEAKYLY READING THIS AND I KNOW YOU ARE...READ THIS: IF I GET 6 POINTS FOR Os WILL YOU BUY ME A NEW CRUMPLER AND A CAMERA??? just wondering..

Today got a lift from melin to the ACS (IB) open house, picked up FYL on the way. We were there like super early, so we went around collecting notes and enquiring about the programme taking particular interest in the TOK and the EE section. Then we had to sit down and listen to this boring talk on why we should choose IB over the A levels, it was quite impressive seeing how the IB standard in AC is rather high. Melin and I discussed what our 6 subjects would be and found out that we would take the same subjects. After the talk, met lianne and ttm and yanka. Toured the programmes once more with them, lianne was in a dilemma but i tried to convince her that though both of us want to study medicine, the IB route can pose more benefits than the A levels. Then after that, went to the Daily Scoop with them where had double scoop (my diet is so not working) of icecream which was great. Lianne found out that her camera's flash worked. TTM's lychee martini was super yummy. happy for the free water, yes i am aunty. After seconds, took a lift back home and..yar.

I hope i get into IB and in the same class as Lianne, Melin, TTM and yanka. That would be so much fun. DSAing would be hard cause i have nothing to fill into the section for "Special Academic awards and acheivements". Melin and i decided to add in random stuff like our good essays to sway the ppl in IB. Oh, and the extended essays done by the seniors of the school were incredibly impressive. 15 books for english seems to be a daunting task but the course work is fun, so i heard from their teacher Mr Quek. Have decided to take the following subjects (i think melin and ttm and lianne would be oding likewise)

1) Higher English
2) Standard chinese B (cause acc to the lao shi, unless you get A2 at least for higher chinese you should take this)
3) Higher Econs/ standard Econs
4) Higher chem
5) Standard Bio/higher Bio
6) Standard Math

Not sure whether to take higher econs or higher bio, i think i sould take higher bio cause i want to do medicine. But econs would help me if i decide to do a minor in buisness next time. Maybemaybe. Sigh, why think about what to choose when i have not entered the school..and another interesting fact we discovered, the pullover really makes a difference in how you look in their school u. And converse balck sneakers are the standard school shoes there..strange.

Going to moan over my chinese hw now. And lit. Maybe tmr.

3)

if i fail my english composition...

2008-05-20T04:23:00.000-07:00

i will die, seriously.

Today, we got back chinese..no surprises there. Then we got back chem which i screwed up. And i thought english was my saving grace but i got even more freaked out. Miss tan pointed out many mistakes of which ALL we made by me. Then she said there was one clear failure which i am sure is ME TOO. SHITSHITSHITSHIt. Melin and i were arguing on who was the failure, sigh i am quite sure i was me. My essay was so ambiguous till the very end when i mentioned for the first time the word "LABOUR", i think i totally screwed it up which sucked cause i thought my idea was somewhat different..okay lar, very diff cause who on earth would right about an election with PAP against LABOUR party for an essay that was entitled "LABOUR". At least now i know not to spew any excessive creative juices in the o levels, will try not too write differently.sigh.

On another note, we were informed that we had to go to St luke's today like today..so it was a last minute decision, but i decided to get it over and done with and go today instead of tmr. It was fun, i volenteered to do data work in the AIRCON but instead counted and sorted out coins, 280 1cent coins crazy..had amelia for company. When we were done, we went down to chit chat with the seniors..then we heard our big bus broke down ans in the end, we had to split into to gros to travel back to mg in two mini buses.

PLEASE DONT FAIL ENGLISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aunty..i want more yogurt can?!

2008-05-15T01:25:00.000-07:00

In the prefects' room..even though i am not a prefect..ahahha..having the head of discipline next to me...i lengthened my skirt specially for her...tomorrow is ss and lit..censorship please come out...or my preparation would have been in vain! Entertainment can come out too...for ss..globalisation so that i can regurgitate all my geog stuff...today's bio paper sucked big time man...got the first question of mcq wrong already..sad sad...seems like tmr's post exams celebrations have to be held back due to the vision cafe and student forum..TTM is on the panel..haha..at least there is another perspective than those politically-correct people...

Just now...i wanted to make the most of my purchase of i-scream, so i went out and asked the aunty whether i can get more for less cash..and she gave me sooo much..so happy...my aunty-ways have come to good use after all...and today's English paper was fine...

Going to study now..i think!

After geog-ging

2008-05-11T20:04:00.000-07:00

The paper sucked so badly..felt like the whole paper was lorms lorms and more lorms..felt that the teachers unfairly stretched us beyond our capabilities..imagine..GM food, Green revolution, starvation and malnutrition all in one question..crazy stuff man..the other supposedly smaller parts of the questions had such heavy weighting..might as well right all of them as essays..stupid man.

Tmr is e math and physics...did loads of revision on both already so going to slack off for a bit first..4 more days till freedom...2 more months till prelims and 4 more months to the big O levels..time flies really fast..oh and.

HAPPY BELATED MOTHER"S DAY MUMMY! MUAX!

life before sleep

2008-04-30T07:16:00.000-07:00

Sneaking in a post before i head off to sleep. Tmr is labour day and there is NO SCHOOL. yes. finally. They should just give us Friday off as well. Today was okay i guess..there was of course THE INCIDENT, which i am not allowed to devulge but am sure that many know about. There was the Head Prefect speech, voted for *****. After school was the usual studying in the prefects' room, it was incredibly hot outside, felt like the air was like a burden or something, every occasional breeze was greatly appreciated by our class. Oh, before that was bio extra class..haha "miss lau, does the tail of the sperm form the umblibical cord??" TTM is hilarious i tell you. Our class locked her out of the AVA room but i swear she was going to break down the door..

On a separate and infinitely more important note (my ego is getting the better of me, bear with me for a 10 more sentences), my BIRTHDAY (major hint) is coming up next thurday, yay, sad i'll be studying through the week so no happy sweet 16 for me. Ah wells. Mum is coming back tmr so going to receive her at the airport tmr evening. Notice how i am so unlike TTM's "7 days without THE mother" haha. Hope she bought clothes for me, especially the shorts that i requested.

Really tired now so i will just go to bed now. Bye.

romancing singapore! (singapore)

2008-04-25T21:25:00.001-07:00

We got 1st for GEL...yayayayya..good job 4G..we redeemed ourselves from the total defence presentation...haha..jiani's shoulder pads were the coolest. Anyway, not that we are constantly reminded of our o levels, ACS (IB) has the open house thingy in the 26th of may..and their DSA form is out...asking grandaunt to get for me cause to lazy to look for it on their website. Austcham is having their Diva's race today and melin and i are not going cause we are good girls who want to study..ah wells...cant go next week cause family is celebrating my birthday..ehhehehe..HINT!

Anyway, back to GEL yesterday...it was great fun..we even did it twice so that mrs yap could enjoy our slapstik humour. Jiani and astrid should seriously consider drama man...even though astrid was just sick man..."i'm single desperate and ugly"..hhaahaha..today's study plan is going to continue into the night...will be exhausted, but it has to be worth it right? Tmr at church will be studying too..feel really guilty for not respecting the sabbath..i know sacrfices have to be made, but must it come down to neglecting our faith. Sad...

2.4+fever=running with God

2008-04-19T00:21:00.000-07:00

yesterday:
2.4 looked like a daunting task to complete especially since i was running a fever. Luckily, my fever had subsided some what so i decided to come to school in the end. Most people adived me not to run, but stubborn me insisted as i did not want to take it on another day ALONE. So, praying that i would just get my A below 12:30 i started the run with a VERY slow start (i did not know Mr Ng said go until the people in front started running). I paced melin and jamie, hoping that with them i might reach my goal. NOt to my surprise, Mr Ng asked me to keep "Close up the GAP!!" and "WHAT HAPPEN JULIA!!". I did not want to die so i kinda ignored him and just kept behind jamie throughout until the last part. I surpassed my expectations and it was by God's grace really did i even have the guts to come to school that day. BUT after that, it seemed my luck ran out and my nose started to run (pun unintended..haha). The basket was filled with my tissues and SCKC's share too (my fellow running nose classmate). 6 bottles of water and 3 doses of panadol later, i was still sniffling and achoo-ing so much that i used like 2 whole boxes of tissue. I went to bed with my trusty tissue paper at my bedside and feeling quite guilty that melin could not go db because i was sick. ah wells.

Today so far:
Did not go for trg as i was still sick. Instead, went to the club to get some work done while watching my siblings have their tennis trg. It was quite weird, on the left of me was the tennis courts and their POCK-ing with every ball they hit, on the right of me was the squash courts, with the (dunno what sound..all i know it was VERY loud), it was like a symphony of balls (HAHAHHAHAHA)..anyway, i should go and do some work. I finished bio so going to continue with Geog and math.

WHAT DO YOU CALL...

2008-04-17T04:32:00.000-07:00

Wednesday
5 items day..our class was the last class so we spent the time before that video-taping our GEL video..it is going to be the bomb i tell you, with TTM as the STAR..you can't stay serious for long! When our turn finally came, i started rethinking my just-get-A mindset. So in the end, i went all out for every station, contrary to what i promised not to do, must be the encouragement from fellow group mates: Chery, Jennifer and Jane:). And Miss June Tan was the best encourager-teacher of the lot, she began very set with "Come on girls, the magic number is 50!"haha. Then there was a show-down between Mr Chong and Mr Ong for standing broad jump, the prize? A free drink (boring!). And..MR ONG WON..hhahahhaha..(with some help from certain mat-pullers.hehe). In class after completing the stations, we found out Mel's LUCKY CHARM is a certain someone (eh Mel??haha) who helped her improve her standing broad jump.

Today
Today was a VERY long day with chinese later in the afternoon and me sniffling away..i drank like 6 bottles of water btw...then it kind duh like mutated to fever and now i am xian out of my wits as tmr is the 2.4 run. Guess i will have to settle with A, so MR NG BETTER NOT SCOLD ME LIKE HE DID TO DAVELLE! I am so going to do a 12;30..dont care man.

ANDAND, today our class found a hidden talent for jokes in the form of MAISIE Koh..haha..she starts of all her jokes as "What do you call a boy/girl with no legs and hands who (add something)?" haha..i came up with some lame ones..

1) "What do you call a girl with no legs and hands who loves to share?"
ANS: IV-FEN (hahahha)

2) "What do you call a girl with no legs and hands and who fell sick while eating noodles?"
ANS: LAO SHI (for those who know her name you will gettit..hha)

3) "What do you call a guy with legs and hands after he ran his 2.4?"
ANS: A certain math teacher which teaches me..haha..

(and then there was benedict..hahahhahahahaahah..if you dont get it...lucky you.)
Anyway, X-country school nats is coming, feeling really nervous for the juniors..they will be NO. 1!! Deciding whether letter-writing would help encourage them..grace and i have yet to plan the picnic..so GOOD LUCK MG CROSSIES!!!!!

Must Go Study

2008-04-15T04:54:00.000-07:00

MGS can stand for many things

1) Must Go Study
2) Many Grumpy Students
3) My Green Shoes (random)
4) Moo...Goes Stoo (the cow..)

AND of course
MONKEY GIRLS' SCHOOL

haha..bored and studying bio...hais. I really Must Go Study!

of boats & best friends

2008-04-12T04:36:00.000-07:00

In today's newspaper, the saturday section, second page, i saw TTM's BEST FRIEND! HAHAHHAH! For those who know who this "best friend" is...go check it out..anyway, it is quite admirable how she managed to overcome her disabilities in life (so i should stop teasing..maybe)

Training in the morning was rather slack...caught up with Yihui and Tricia who said they prefered MG to ACJC...to that, no comment. MG has changed and the school spirit which was strong is now dwindling..oh wells, last year and going to enjoy every second of it. Later had tuition where my lao shi and i talk about the rising rental cost and attempted to BAO ZHANG together..i hope i do reasonably well for higher chinese. After that was DB where we did a 45 min set which was killllllerrrr..our boat was faster than the other two but Ken in front of me kept swearing at the other boats who were happily cutting corners..haha...enjoyed the scenery and weather while trying not to go out of time. Then melin and i walked to Kallang Leisure Park which was really clean. We contemplated buying the superman figurines that were going at a dollar each..but could not decide what to do with them so we walked to subway where melin's mum and dad treated me to subway foldovers...ahhhh..melin and i discussed IB life and how we would like our IDEAL BOY to have part of all our teachers and the 4G spirit and how we would miss 4G loads..aww. Then she fetched me to the usual busstop and here i am..tired and wondering whether i should squeeze in a chapter of A math (guess not.)

Next week is PFT week.cant be bothered to do my best..as long as i get my As for all and run under 14min (which is an A) for 2.4. I running on friday with the second half of the grp..would have melin to pace with. CCA is supposedly cancelled but i think i will go for cross on Monday if i do not feel like studying. As for now, going to visit other blogs and xangas before heading to bed.

Once upon a comprehension passage

2008-04-07T05:06:00.000-07:00

We received back our common test passage on the Scottish education system. It was such a long passage that they did not bother to give us a passage "b". Anyway, this passage was rather interesting in the sense that it was like a literary prose with all the literary devices such as metaphors and contrast etc. I can imagine the questions had it been a lit unseen: "What feelings does the author evoke in you about the Scottish education then? How does he evoke these feelings?"haha..anyway, there is only one question for lit midyears, i hope spottig questions would hel cause i am leaning towards NOT doing a passage-based question..hopefully, either turning points, symbols or the pervasiveness of entertainment would come up cause those are the ones i am preparing ofr. Ah wells. After school, 4G stayed back for a while to discuss our GEL jingle. Finally decided on the plot's skeleton and the leads: JIA NI and ASTRID!!! Match made in heaven (woohooo!)...then went to the canteen to do work with Kat, Grace, Gis and gang. Yes, i pontang-ed trg again..ahahaha..so did grace and davelle, davelle said that sge will come for wed's trg..then I forced Kat to walk me down to the overhead bridge.ahahah..BEWARE THE HEAD PREFECT WHACKS PEOPLE VERY VICIOUSLY!

Oh, then i came home and when i read the sports section of today's paper i found a small segment dedicated to talking about a swimming awards thingy andand...ACE got the best affiliate club and Uncle Puay Kheng got best development coach..go Uncle Puay Kheng!!yah! Though i have not been trg for swimming and my timings like suck..i have him to thank for being my coach for a few years before i demoted myself(oh the slacker in me!) to Sunny's lane..haha.

Anyway, going to sleep soon..even though it is like barely pass 8..i completed all my chem work and tried to squeeze in some geog and physics..so i need a rest. Night!

Kat whacks people like she is using a bat
Kat i want to tell you that
Anyone who sees you will scurry away like a rat
But i tell them not to fret
As i know your secret and that's that.

haha..lame i know..anyway, there is no secret, i just did not know how to end..haha.

guy;girl

2008-04-05T04:40:00.000-07:00

Guy meets girl
girl likes guy
guy loves girl
girl hates guy
guy hugs girl
girl kisses guy
girl guy happy

haha..whatever. Anyway, today was super boring..grace and i had went to toa payoh after school and ate from bread talk while watching flag day people and commenting on their hair and uniforms. Then went home for chinese tuition. Went for DB after that, 30min non--stop...i think i am twisting more cause i did not feel tired and did not stop..yay me. Then melin and i talked about romancing singapore jingle in her sister's car while drinking watermelon juice and paos..mmm..then i came home, bathed and now going to geog for a while..need to revise for midyears!!!!!!

Today was the MG swim finals. Thinking that it would only take 15 min for my dad to fetch me to Toapayoh, i left the house at 6:45 and to my horror (oh how cliched), there was two loooong queues just trying to squeeze themselves into Toapayoh...found out that SCGS had their track meet today too, thus the jam. My dad expertly snaked in and out of the bottle neck and managed to get me to the main gate, half an hour late. Did not warm up as i figured that it was no use, thus the shit timings for back and fly. Caught up with Elaine and Ren jean who came for the invitational relay. ran around gathering people for the relays and novelty events, which included persuading people who were adament that they could not swim.haha. anyway, Jackson got 3rd overall, at least not last. Then i came home to do physics cmaps.

IT WAS A KILLER!

Linking and moving boxes here and there was just so annoying. I could not put my file on LEAD and emailed mr liu instead. Then i went for training. I thought that there was not trg cause when i reached the RI pool, there was music blaring and RI people swimming and time keeping. Found out that there was trg, but only after their swim meet ended..at 5:30!!!! ahhaa..so only trained for like 1 hour...super slack trg...got to do some 100m fly but failed to get a good timing. I am seriously screwed for school nats..waiting for a miracle to happen...200m FLY!!!! PLease please let us have 200m FLY!!! no, i'm not kidding k...haha..anyway, sherlynn teo did crazy timing for 50 fly, so much for slacking..which i did (kept my promise!). And to think the COE people train 10 times a week..crazy. Have to get back to my geog now...will tru to update as much as i can..and i need a new camara.

HAPPY APRIL FOOLS!!!

2008-04-01T06:06:00.000-07:00

Today was the best day of the week (considering that it was a tuesday). Melin and gang let like garbage bags full of balloons after assembly from the 4th floor, thiam told me before hand so i was seen looking up in anticipation, but i was apprehensive about the situation at first as i thought that they might get into trouble. Luckily they did not, Mrs Yap was laughing away, so excitttinnnnggg! Anyway, here is the list of pranks we did today:

1) Scared people with spider and lizard (victims include FYL and xiao hui..haha..peace guys!)
2) Formed "Mari Me" for miss marilyn lau..haha..lying in the hot sun on the track was not good at all, everyone was like "MIIIISSSS LAUUU!!!!!!" haha, good fun. She then had her revenge by scaring us with a pop quiz...we even separated our tables!
3) Wore our shirts the other way round...so sad Mrs Kuan was not here, the relief Mr chong made us so tired, but he can broad jump damn far...anyway, everyone looked at us like we were some group of weirdos (i love 4G for that!)...Mrs Chitra did not notice, Mrs Chen thought it was a new PE t-shirt..and Mr ling..well he gave the "i ain't owe you no money" look..how lame.

Have not done any homework yet as i was working on philosophy major assignment, the presentation is like NEXT week. Shit. I dont think it is a waste of time per se, but it is unnecessary especially since we do not take philo as an o level sub. Guess they thought it might help. Not. Will force myself to at least complete bio and math. Which reminds me that i have physics mindmap (another source of time-wastage) to do, thanks Mr liu...

I dont look forward to tomorrow as there is x trg (grace dont pontang on me!!) and i hope it is NOT IN TURF CITY ARGGHHHH!! There is a race this Saturday so does it mean that THERE IS NO TRG??? pleasepleaseplease...ta.

Cinderella

2008-03-31T05:34:00.000-07:00

The prince leans to the girl in scarlet heels,

Her green eyes slant, hair flaring in a fan

Of silver as the rondo slows; now reels

Begin on tilted violins to span

The whole revolving tall glass palace hall

Where guests slide gliding into light like wine;

Rose candles flicker on the lilac wall

Reflecting in a million flagons' shine,

And glided couples all in whirling trance

Follow holiday revel begun long since,

Until near twelve the strange girl all at once

Guilt-stricken halts, pales, clings to the prince

As amid the hectic music and cocktail talk

She hears the caustic ticking of the clock.

Wisdom vs Morals (crap.)

2008-03-30T04:38:00.000-07:00

So today i spend my time bumming around at home in front of the com. Took time off to watch tv between failing efforts to complete my chinese argumentative essay. Writing about wisdom and morals in chinese was definitely not easy, i would have struggled to write it in english more over trying to translate my english-orientated thoughts into understandable chinese. Anyway, i have pure freedom till like wednesday when my parents return, but i promised myself i will do something fruitful till then (i think).

Tomorrow will be the usual, school, x training, home. Borrriinnng. Hopefully some (all) teachers call in sick, it would be nice to have block free periods to do away with the monday blues. Till then, i guess.

It was you. It was me. Then came Her.

but my lover has a brother
who is good and kind to all"

"o no no no
let the roses come and go
for kindness and goodness do
not make a fellow tall"

lily has a rose
no rose i've

love is more than love)

Moral of the story: buy a daisy instead.

Today was the "auspicious" sec 4 olympics..Mr Melvin Chong did not acknowledge my editing of "auspicious" to "inaugural"..poor jia ni. Anyway, we won our floorball games!!!!!!!!YAH MAN! haha..after like six 10 min games, i was pooped. But it was all worth it. 4G got to do all 3 cheers and got filmed by ms su. And we were so bo liao as to take multiple pictures, with Mrs Chen as our photographer, and with our "eheheh..quickly, front page school magazine, ready one, two, three 4G BANZAI!" haha. I hope we don't get to the front page cause we all looked so unglam with our sweat-soaked shirts and matted hair which so disgustingly plastered to our (my) foreheads. Anyway, injury count: 1) SCKX got a nasty abrasion (GET WELL SOON!) 2) Melin got whacked on her shin with a stick (the game was quite violent) and she thought she broke her leg (haha..and GET WELL SOON, can't go db without you dear). Other people like Giselle had sprained ankles and bruises..and Nat chin's elbow was quite messed up, poor thing. SO PLEASE GET WELL SOON..ha..i did not a scratch :) Handball people did well too, second, CONGRATS. And basketball people, dont lose heart, you tried your best and that's all that matters.

On a separate note, my mum and dad are going overseas again, which means my grandmere is coming to whip up some great food like mee sua and other yummmy stuff for my siblings and i. Going to get FAT if i don't start training again. Must keep "RUNNIN' AND RUNNIN' AND RUNNIN" life sucks.

A Start.

I am blogging again. Don't know what gave me the urge to just restart blogging..anyway, this blog would not be updated often (refer to now defunct xanga) and it would be filled with my daily musings which i feel have little value but am lame enough to blog about, so bear with me.

Like now.

How this year has been? Shit tiring, but one fulfilling year so far. Things that have changed? Well, my hair, for one, is now short like anything. Just changed my glasses which i am quite skeptical about now that i have worn it. My mum has also granted me more freedom even though it is THAT year. But on the whole, life has been pretty much stagnant and uneventful.

Anyway, today was okay i guess...bio SPA..screwed up my graph and i could not possibly observe any red stain from the celery cause like there was nothing...hopefully i am rewarded for my effort to stare out the dye. GEL was like "HAR..again! WAH LAO!" haha. Like do they have like nothing for us to do that they have to organise a "Come up with a jingle that promotes a National Campaign" competition. After GEL was when the most hilarious and fun thing happened. Tomorrow is the Sec 4 olympics so our class (being 4G) practiced our "hot hot like wasabi" cheer. Then Astrid taught us a new cheer which was the tokyo drift song..AND THEN, tam mei showed us how to "drift", which was the most funniest thing i have seen, Miss June tan like literally collapsed onto the floor with laughter and could not get up..then we did a pokemon cheer. Oh, if you're wondering, we are Japan so..ya. Hope we do well tmr and we must WIN. Our class' floorball team rocks man..we will swing the sticks the hardest..haha..hope i play well. There is AC fun-o-rama tmr, but may not be going cause would be DB with melin (dont pontang on me!) Hope training would be easy, no crazy 15min sets. Well, that's tmr.

OHOHOH. and they changed the cross-country route when the nationals are like in 3 weeks, not that i am running in the team this year, but my juniors are so poor thing, need to refamiliar themselves with the route again. At least the red brick path is taken out (in case ppl roll down the hill) so they would not have to hill their way up. grace and i have yet to plan our picnic in the botanic gardens for that day. We shall taunt them with our ice-cold root beer and cheer them on at the same time. Aren't we such good seniors (NOT). I hope our B div and C div people win..remember what Mr Quek says "There is no such thing as exhaustion, your brain is tricking you.." okayyy. yar right.
