it has been ages since i last updated my blog. and on the ride home today, i just felt a sudden urge to do so. so yeap! that explains it all! (:

i have got like many many things to say about the happenings for the past 2.5 months. from the day i got back my promo results all the way till my 17th birthday. yea.. and promo results really sucks to the core! and for the first time, i doubted my ability to study. but disappointing as the results may be, i'm glad and thankful to those who have cheered me on and prayed hard enough for me to advance conditionally. coussie said it's more of seeing the "light". well.. i guess so too! so i shouldn't get too impatient. haha.

it's a tough choice to make between retaining myself and advancing conditionally. because either choice has a risk behind it. but since i have choosen to advance myself, then i guess i have to really buck up during the holidays. shall PESERVERE till i see the "light"! (:

yup! and i must say i had the most memorable birthday this year. wanna say a BIG THANK YOU for everything you guys did for me. MC and friends for the "unexpected" surprise (could have masked it better though. LOL!), best wishes, gifts and the overwhelming attendance at kbox! really appreciate all the hard work behind it. didi for your cd. and also to dearest C.O peeps for the jacket! i really like it. (:

went out with jw to orchard today. was in time to retrieve her present at wisma before meeting her at 4. i thought the outlet that i ordered the gift from is really efficient cause i just placed an order the previous night. and because it's personalised, the manufacturer has to get it done and sent it back to the pull-cart shop by 1pm today. amzaing! somemore, they provide free wrappers! not bad.. before that i still had to worry giving the gift to her unwrapped. and i received this cute little handmade windmill from her as a gift. in case you are wondering, it does turn. LOL!

then went to catch the movie "Beowulf" at cine where we saw alicia and her friend there too. the show was not too bad just that some parts are rather scary. don't know why but i always find myself laughing when watching NC16 movies. i mean.. violence = funny? =/ morale of the show is: don't be greedy!

shop, talk, eat! today was fun!

tired..................... i wanna sleep.... once again thanks and take care peeps! (:

you have no idea how much i miss them.

went back to teck whye yesterday for teacher's day. it feels great to see many alumni going back.. more than i expected actually. GOOD! we shall always stay loyal to our alma mater.

was in time for the last item. and that was columbus on stage. they are really thoughtful to come up with a skit. nice performance put up! after which, as usual.. the guys in our class chiong for soccer! haha. come to think of it, that is what marks AVC actually!

nice chat with those teachers! only managed to take a glance of mdm pua in the midst of the crowd. when we wanted to chat with her later on, she could nowhere be found. anyway, she replied that she was out for lunch and she hopes that we are all well. (:

went out with a mixture of 4A'05 and '06 friends for movie today! thanks to MC lor.. got so many free tickets! *sigh*. totally understandable la. that's the trademark of a typical singaporean. only 5 people went for the talk and yet you can squeeze 10 over tickets out from your teacher! remarkable. HAHA! i know what you are thinking right now and sometimes i wish i could treat you better too. but you know that word 'formality' will never be in our dictionary so why bother? LOL!

that was a nice show actually! didn't expect myself to like it at first cause it's cartoon. haha! (:

cut my hair today! and i'm really touched that you guys actually waited. REALLY! okay la.. i'm satisfied with the new hairstyle and i feel so refreshed after the haircut! the hairdresser repeatedly assured me that my hair won't go 'PONG' just because it was layered. well.. every hairdresser tells me that kind of tale but unfortunately... we shall see after some time!

had fun totally! eileen yap still as crappy and cheeky as ever, jing min as nice and thoughtful as before, mingsi as lovesick as always, meizhen is still ever smiley and blah blah blah.. the list goes on.. but how could i ever forget about jonathan tay?! totally miss that ever-growing-taller guy! and gladys sim! U ARE WANTED!.. BY ME! fix a time! heex. truely enjoyed every moment spent with them and it won't just stop there. there will always be a next time! (:

CHEERS TO FRIENDSHIP! & JIA YOU FOR PROMOS! (:

Before I forget about this no link, lame tagging thing I am supposed to do by the command of Derrel, I'm gonna do it now. (:

Please read the rules first: Each player of the game starts off by giving 6 weird things about themselves. People who get tagged needs to write in a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state the rules clearly. (I chose to break the rule). In the end, you'll need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their name.

1) I have the tendency to sleep and dream with my eyes open during lectures and instead of copying the stuffs on the board, I end up scribbling the words in my dreams. I can erase and rewrite for more than 5 times and still get it wrong.

2) I am afraid of hospitals and each time I make a trip to a hospital, I make sure I walk right in the middle of the aisle, sticking close to somebody I know.

3) Whenever I am bored, I like to seek attention by constantly poking the person beside me till he or she reveals the “I’m too lazy to be bothered with you” expression, then I will be satisfied.

4) I have extreme personalities. I can be very high at times, yet very quiet on some days.

5) I find guys most suave in policemen uniform. (That's why i cooked up lots of excuses just to get my brother to join NPCC in the first place and he did! haha!)

6) I can get EXTREMELY hot-tempered and uncontrollable when I fail to understand the answers to questions that require logic and calculations.

7) If my house is on fire and I am only allowed to take one possession along with me, I would grab my bolster. It’s my precious and I would never bear to dump it!

6 people to be tagged: NOBODY! I dare to break the rule. Muahahaha!

POOOOFFF! it has been a tiring week and it's finally weekends again! all smiles. (: i've have been bombarded with tutorials, tests and project work for this entire week till i feel i could hardly breathe man.. and sometimes i do feel like giving everything up. my dreams and aspirations and all. i was so close to telling my mum that i don't intend to mug for promos and hopefully, she would allow me to flung it.

i don't feel good enough to mug and that's a reason enough for me to slack off. i don't care if that piece of assignment is to be handed up the next day or that there will be tests tomorrow. it's irresponsible for me to think or react this way i know but i just can't help it. sorry mum, you know it. (:

and i realised i could turn to my mum for every problems i faced. i used to be selective of the issues i share with her mainly because im egoistical and perhaps dont feel comfortable pouring everything out. but not now anymore. *grins*.

i know you do visit my blog, mum. thanks for your words and advices the other day. but please repeat those things again the next time i turn to you till it gets into my head! haha. it really makes me feel a lot better. i love you and dad. (:

i gave up my score libarian post today! though im left with the publicity post, im happy! not because i will have lesser stuffs to do but because my giving up of this post has allowed xing hua and jia min to be part of the exco. they have always been commited to saco and i feel that they truely deserve the post. i know how it is feel like to be without a post when 3/4 of the members have at least one. for once, i felt i did something great! (: at least, with two people filling up this post, things can be done faster. when mr low asked me to hand him a detailed infomation of all the scores on the two shelves asap, i almost fainted. we've got like a library of scores which is hell lot man! haha. if i were to do it alone, i don't know when i can finish it.

AHH QIUUUUU. i almost sneezed when i opened those files to search for scores today. it must have been kept on the shelves for years. but anyway, good luck and congrats to jia min and xing hua! work hard! (:

okay! i received complains that i have not been updating my blog so since i have only got like a few more paragraphs to go for this brain racking gp application question, i decided to blog. (:

well.. nothing much happened over the past one week except an increasing work load and never-ending tests. DARN. i seriously have so much to complain man. life's so much like a routine and i dread it cause i wouldn't label myself as a mundane person. it's a guarantee that you wake up at 6 everyday to go to school, try and absorb as much as you can, get yourself real drained and do your work when you reach home. even the remaining two out of seven days are not spared! but comes to results? nah nah.. it's not a guarantee that you would always reap by how much you sow. what a life -.-

had parents meeting teacher session last friday. not too bad i would say. my teachers acknowledged my hard work! but still.. comments are that my concepts are weak. and mum has been harping on it. but worry not! PMT only gets me on-going and more motivated!

and for the very very FIRST time, i passed physics test!

holidays, holidays and MORE HOLIDAYS! i have so many stuffs to complete. from filing up all my loose worksheets to reading up all my lecture notes and preparing for tests which start right after holidays. *sigh*.............. and ms. tay demanded questions from me asap on summation right after i told her that summation is my weakness chapter. told her i would gladly sit down and do once i clear all my recent topics but she seemed unconvinced. should have tightened my mouth that friday night or not even stopped for my mum to have a chance to 'interact' with her. muahahahaha.

that's all for today! wait till i post again. and reluctantly.......... back to my essay that totally drive me NUTS!!

sorry guys! for not being able to update consistently. been busy and was just not in the best of mood lately. so yea.. apologises! (:

anyway, cheers to all c.o members who have gotten their desired posts! to beloved seniors: thanks for everything. the cd, cards, chocolates and well wishes, blah blah.. hope the party had been fun and entertaining and all the best for A levels! (:

i had my most memorable night with AvC last friday. it's really comforting to know that everyone is all and well and that, crazy-nine is still as dynamic as ever. though me, gladys and mauching were all tired and sweating like crazy from all the walking, we did enjoy the fun and gossips we had!

luckily and happily, i didnt forget the way to lau pa sat from the esplanade. and as we walked along the bridge, i inevitably recalled the first time i was led to lau pa sat from the esplanade by the exact same route. it felt so real..

had i been a little more mature and decisive months ago, i swear that this not-going-anywhere thing wouldnt have drag for so darn long. it took me quite some time before i thought i could finally adapt to certain styles of yours. yet on few occasions, i just get extremely pissed with myself for subconciously brooding over what i call STUPID stuffs when i shouldnt and seemingly thought i wouldnt! utterly pissed! and since you know you feel the same way, how could you ever bear to leave it stagnant and not talk about it at all? the previous talk was a total failure. it didnt work at all. so much for the slightest hope. and because i half expected it, i felt almost nothing. but often, i feel silly having to carry out commitments still when it's not even there in the very first place. and i can't tell how much i dread it. owell.. blame it on my stupidity.

in general, things are just not going my way for this entire month and god knows why. just anything you could think of seriously. i get pissed easily and i start to rate my confidence level. it's quite saddening cause i never like emo-ing. i find it silly, stupid. but when it comes, i just can't seem to fight it.

but thanks to a particular someone for always being there. you never fail to make me feel a lot better. (:

on a happier note, had learning festival on wednesday and thursday this week. frankly speaking, i did learn some useful and fun skills. rock climbing was fun. at least, i exceeded 3m on my first attempt which i initially thought i wouldnt make it. im always afraid of height but i did daringly look down that day. it was a nice attempt! at least for me. (:

protect yourself course was memorable and fun! initially, i wasn't very enthu about attending this course that was conducted by mr. yuen. haha. but i sort of took back my words during that course. learnt a few tactful and fatal moves from him! so don't ever think i make a good target just because im small okay! and god.. i didnt know he had so many interesting encounters with those muggers in Man-U.

had fun with volleyball and hip-hop too! at least i know i didnt choose the wrong
courses. though my arms are still aching..

met up with nat and friends last night. learnt that she's going back to canada next tuesday. it's really fast i thought. we'll be missing you for sure but stay strong girl! and tina too, who's migrating to canada soon. tomorrow is another farewell dinner. my best best wishes to you both and hopefully tina, you will come back and visit us in the near future! (:

okay! that's all for today. take care people! (:

it's friday the 13th and i remember telling jon tay one week ago that it's supposedly a bad friday. ha whatever. just a random thought. im not superstitious okay! =X

so many things happened in just one day and just as much as i can't wait to blog them all, im not sure of where to start from. alright..

attended the wake of our late ex-conductor, mr yeo, at night.

all of us sat in for the service that started at 8pm. the atmosphere was undoubtedly solemn and helplessly, the thought of it now still saddens me a little. the impact was especially greater when i saw how hard his wife cried and upon hearing the song the couple had composed together during the darkest days.

okay! enough of the sad stories. on a happier note, it's the 30th student council commendation day today! (: but still, we got to report to school at our usual timing before making our way to the st. andrew's cathedral at cityhall for the commendation ceremony.

signed up for our desired courses for the learning festival after dismissal. the computer lab was really packed man! vacancies for the courses are limited, so i guess that explains it all. and here are my courses:

rock climbing
hip-hop dance
protect yourself
volleyball

wanted salsa and sign language instead of hip-hop and protect yourself. but no vacancies left! so sad.. :(

after which, jon, sara and i made our way to the cathedral by cab cuz we were super late then.

the cathedral is supposedly one of the largest church around but upon reaching there, seats were all filled up and half the cohort had to view the ceremony through the video in another room. sorry jeriel! didn't manage to take photos of you and zong wei. i wished i could. (:

but seriously, it was an eye-opening ceremony. far more formal than i thought it would be, with the student leaders walking down the aisle in their blazers, the bishop speaking, etc.

later in the afternoon, met up with the c.o peeps for lunch and movie at marina square! then nick, lk, aaron and i went for a walk after lunch. were walking aimlessly when all of a sudden, nick and i started going crazy as though we were high on drugs. did many stupid stuffs and said things that were nonsensical. (:

then ran into kiddy palace which was just right beside the barney machine! sort of 'dragged' lk and aaron into the shop too. and together, we engaged ourselves in fun-filled activities! XD meddled with toys and swimming costumes! gosh. LOL. nick said i looked bimbotic with the pinky minnie mouse umbrella and the extremely tiny pink snow white backpack that covers only 1/4 of my back! grrrrr... and how could i forget about the bitching part?! YOU! you corrupted my mind! beware of bad karma which comes along your way~ haha! =X

met up with the rest to watch 'harry potter and the order of pheonix'. we got good seats! thanks to yg who booked the tickets online. (; but i forgot to pay her back somehow. haha! monday then! =P

the movie wasn't as nice as the previous ones. kinda disappointing though. the lighting was simply too dim, the show overly focused on the aspect of character development and the action parts were just so limited! the first half was rather boring that yg and i actually dozed off. lol.

then someone behind burped super loudly. ironically, only nick and i heard. we turned to look at each other, then immediately burst into laughter. laughed louder than he burped that i think he kinda knew. LOL! our bad i know.. but can't help it. it was super hilarious.

went hanky-pankying after the movie. and to my surprise, spotted jordan stoning at yoshinoya! so my hunch was right! the fact that i thought i would see him around in marina square. (: chatted for a while before we left for ice-cream at Andersen's and finally, met up with our seniors for the wake.

okay! that's all for today. it's a long post i know.. and im tired too. btw, i can't wait to see all AVC peeps and friends next week! im missing you guys terribly and WOOHOO! NAT IS BACK! (:

for all we know, life is fragile..
one year ago, he was still alive and smiling.
and that was during the audition where i first met him.
the friendly smile of his was all i could remember.
at least, it was his smile that took my fear and anxiety away.
and for that, i think he's nice.

you are part of the reason i got into SA.
my heartfelt thanks and condolences.

it's only the second post and im starting to feel lazy already.. haha. you guys out there better pray hard that i won't let this blog die man. it's gonna be a pretty long post so bear with me.

so lets' see.. what have i done for this past few days. these two days have been quite eventful actually. or at least it's less taxing than studying. that's a reason why i always love fridays and saturdays. they are simply the best days of the week!

friday was the college day. we were told to report to school only at 11am. and that would mean i could stay longer in bed.

every class had to participate in the amazing race and scavenges hunting. and to think of it, teachers were actually that free to station outside school, in places like mcdonalds, KFC and even coffee shops, just to make sure that we students don't slack. mr. yuen, as expected, was posing at this pavilion with his cowboy's hat and a pair of sunglasses.

at the start of the game, our class was seriously damn slacked. went KFC to makan as a class. at the same time, collected chicken bones as one of our task! KFC must have earned alot that day. another task was to collect 10 items that start with the letter 'S'. still remembered what jeriel did. super gross and unglam! he pinched the sesame from esme's zinger and dumped it into the bag, collected soap using the unwashed potato whip container and lots more which i can't remember. LOL.

later in the afternoon, left school for PS with yg and the ruanners for lunch and at the same time, discussed about the entertainment thingy for the J2s' farewell party. then creative jiamin actually came up with the name 'KONG BAK BAU' that made all of us laugh off our heads! not bad hah! the entertainment aspect is finally done thanks to KONG BAK BAU! (:

then went action city meddle with some toys and stuffs. played as though we missed our childhood! LOL.

today, dated 07.07.07 (nice date ya?), that's when o7so7 had class gathering! YEAH! had fun totally though only half the class could make it for the gathering. went sarah's house and watched 'DEATH NOTE'. even the guys were hooked on it. nice plot, similar to 'prison break'. simply love L.! that emo but super brilliant guy as how romit described him. also, called in four large pizzas and within fifteen minutes, not a single slice left. haha!

S07 simply rox my socks!
YOU ARE LOVED. (:

one of our tasks was to take a pic with a non-saint. this was my lame suggestion and guess wad?! it got accepted!
our bag of items! gross...

O7SO7 on spider web! (:

thursday, july 05, 2007

hey peeps! this blog is finally all ready to see the world. hopefully this time round i won't abandon it like the last time. too lazy to maintain a blog and this is what happens. i've never really blog in my entire life cuz i choose to write instead. but in any case, for those who ever cared about my life, i believe this blog would serve its purpose! (:

common test ended just last week. but believe me.. it's disastrous. thought im the only one who thought so but it turns out that many thought so too. feedbacks from various sub teachers were not very pleasant either. =/

got back my physics paper today. it's an U grade. quite disappointing actually. didn't really expect it to be that bad cuz of all papers that i did, thought physics was the one that i would best fare. perhaps a S grade for the worst scenario?

flung physics like nobody's business and so there goes my chem and math. more screwed. did mug during the june holi but guess it started abit too late. mum said i deserve it cuz i slacked my way through ever since jc life started. lol. she's so mean!

at least 35 points to get promoted to j2 and this would mean at least a pass for every sub. most freaking thing is that all U this time round would mean at least a B grade for every sub during promos. this is damn stressful can!

but whatever it is, vic is certainly going all out to achieve better grades! to all of you as well, GAMBATTE! (:
