Freeing Inhibitions

2012-01-26T00:09:00.000+08:00

I think I've been pretty much being a little good kid who listens to instructions and conform to everything else.
But I'm pretty sick and tired of this!

It's not a motion for me to "be myself" or anything, because I think I'm quite being myself already.
Guess this is how I was in Sec 1, like quiet and obedient and everything.
Not saying it's bad though, I mean it's good, but I don't wanna look back and regret and think that my life was too 'safe'.
Because it's the risks you take that kinda define you, and that will shape your future.

OMG I SOUND LIKE A PREACHING WHINER LEMME STOP.

Want U Back - Cher Lloyd feat. Astro

I really like this song!
If you don't know, Cher Lloyd was one of the contestants in X Factor, oh and so is Astro!
Though both are from different seasons I think. I THINK.

Have been liking her ever since "Swagger Jagger", although a lot of people don't really like right.
But still it was very catchy and dance-y.
_____________________________________________________

Anyway, I feel very happy to have let go of this feeling already.
It's like I don't really feel any negative emotions whenever I see that thing happening.

I'm finally free (:

Okay, gotta go.

Pre-CNY Celebrations (:

2012-01-23T00:30:00.002+08:00

So last Friday, I went back Cat High for the Chinese New Year celebrations!
And more importantly, to catch up with my friends (:

I met up with Teck Lee at Bishan MRT and we walked towards CHS.
It's so memorable, this pathway, which we always travelled on to & fro whenever we go/leave school.
Thinking about it brings back so many lovely memories.

We entered the school hall and met Dao Liang as well!
And after the ceremony, of course, we went to meet our FAVOURITE teacher, MRS YAP! :D

Group photo! (:

Later, we also had loadsa zi-lianing session with her but unfortunately, I cannot share those embarrassing photos with the world! That's just too much right!
It was so fun, all the laughing and forcing Mrs Yap to do funny poses with us.

We also found MS CHONG!!! :DDD
I really miss her man. I mean, Chemistry was such an easy breezy beautiful moment in secondary school all because of her!
She made me really comfortable in learning chemistry, which I died all the way to August in sec 3.

I remembered August 2009, we were celebrating National Day at the stadium with Teck Lee, Kit Chong and Dao Liang.
Then we were like singing all the NDP and pop songs (Hot N Cold, cool hip party songs lah!) and we could like memorise it very well.
I wasn't very close to Ms Chong then and also was failing chemistry terribly.

But she said something then, "Wah Xuan Yu ah, you can memorise all your pop song lyrics but cannot remember any of my chemistry?"

That was when I realised, I didn't really work hard myself for chemistry.
I didn't even bother to memorise the AQ portion and the solubility of salts page.
That was when I started to work hard for chemistry, even though I knew there were a million kinds of salts and acids and bases in the world.
I threw away all my perceptions, and started to just let these information in my textbook sink in.

In the end, I can't really remember it clearly, but I think I scored either an A1 or A2 for chemistry in the Sec 3 EOYs! :D
I was so happy then, that my chemistry wasn't becoming my next physics.

Really. Just one simple sentence can really lift you into much greater heights.
I've never thanked for properly for that, so here's what I'm going to say: I LOVE YOU MS CHONG!
I will one day, thank you properly for that (:
__________________________________________

Teck Lee had to go for Volleyball training so we couldn't talk much longer ):
But we took a few scenic and flickr-worthy shots before he left!

Staring pensively into the sky, seeing through the mysteries that swirl in it.

We had so much fun catching up and talking about our current lives (:
I really miss you Teck Lee, and I really meant what I said in our latest phone convo! :D

You're the best President ever.
________________________________________________

After that, I went to J8 to meet the 4-7 people who came on that day!

We were just basically talking random shit and not really saying anything productive/objective.
It was really the kind of conversations we had anyway. LOL!

Then Perry all of a sudden was in J8 somehow, and we met up to TRY TO buy Yu Fan a present!
Because it was YF's birthday the Wednesday before -.-
We couldn't find anything though, so we gave up.

At night, YF and Perry came over to my house to finish the tub of ice cream they left in my freaking fridge.
And also a few chat alongs and talking lah.
But I wanna say something first.

SORRY YUFAN, for such a terrible birthday party by your supposed BFFs! ):
It didn't even feel like a birthday party lor, just a normal supper session.
I mean, there was no cake, or no special food (except pizzas)!
And we didn't even treat you anything at all!
And NO PRESENTS.
WHAT A TERRIBLE PARTY HAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAA (I'm so sadistic).
Oh, but we did watch 2 Broke Girls tho, so that makes up for everything.

Okay, I think we will organise someday again and treat you better alright.
HAHAHA like last year we totally NEVER CELEBRATE his birthday at all.
(We keep saying that we did though!)
So diva.
____________________________________________

ANYWAY, by now it's CNY period already so happy Chinese New Year people!
And I saw this video back some time, but I really wanna share it.

So lovely. Can I marry them?

LDR with me,
Jradon.

A Blog, A Diary, and the Letter

2012-01-18T22:43:00.002+08:00

Today, I'll be talking about why I'm coming back to blogging.

I realised that these days, you always have avenues for your usual pouring-out of emotions: FaceBook, Twitter, etc.
But then there's always the one which everyone left: Blogger.

Here's the way I see it:

FaceBook is for more official stuff to post, to let the world know the general feeling you've been feeling the entire week, to post your loves and likes. And to also stay connected with old friends or new ones, and learn more about them.

Twitter is more for daily rants and sudden urges to type something. Like something witty, bitchy, or naughty. Or something cool, awesome, and quotes you steal from everybody else. Yeah, that's what's Twitter for. It's where you get more personal and because you can afford to not find your other friends there, you can hopefully not add them and so you can bitch about your daily life without others knowing. I love Twitter.

Blogger is where you can type freaking long posts about how you feel. And most of the time, they are not marked with your name or whatsoever, so people can't stalk you! And you can like totally type about very unrelated topics an... aiyah anything lah.

So this is why I'm coming back to Blogger, it's because I can really type things which I really want without people whom I do not want to know find out! :D unless of course they discover this but it'll be okay. 'Cos usually I don't really say bad things about people.
______________________________________________

Blogger is more than just some status texting where you'll probably forget what you said like a few months later. It is more personal, and you probably (or maybe it's just me) post about the bigger stuffs happening in life.

You also won't get judged by the fictional social community. Like I can bloody damn well write a poem here and I won't get judged that it's terrible or whatsoevershit, because well they won't be reading it in the first place.

Such things in life, you enjoy.
________________________________________________

But there's a bigger reason other than the utility and anonymity you enjoy in Blogger, and that is keeping a journal.
It's a personal book which you can one day, flip through all the pages and relive the life of exactly how you felt it to be in that exact moment.
Now that's something different from usual photographs, or shout outs to friends, or whatnots.
It's this value of memories which you wanna preserve and keep it dear at heart to you.

That's what's most important. And that is why I treasure Blogger a lot.

I'm not going to ever delete this blog, nor relink it to a different URL, because I decided that I like my blog's name (:
A name which goes back into 2004, an organisation which was built long time ago.
And it keeps many memories of back then, even way before I had an email to begin with.
______________________________________________

I have to go now as it's quite late and I feel darn sleepy.
But happy. Someday, I'll be able to reminiscence about my entire life.

Mailing this post now,
Jradon.

Harvard Model Congress Asia 2012

2012-01-16T00:30:00.000+08:00

So on Friday to Sunday, I was in this competition called "Harvard Model Congress Asia".
Basically what it is, it's like a MUN kinda thing, but instead of delegations from different countries, this HMCA is more of like a MUN based in the USA Congress.

If you don't know what Congress is, it's basically like the Parliament for America.
Something like that.

Yeah (:
________________________________________

I didn't really speak much during the entire HMCA course, because my council Senate 1, was quite cutthroat and very competitive!
Or maybe it's because I'm in the presence of some league of superior debaters or something.
Yeah, they're all very good actually.
So I guess I'll just sit there and be amazed at how they structured their arguement.

But I did meet many new friends! Below are some pictures:

This is my council Senate 1.

There are many foreigners, especially from Japan, South Korea and Indonesia!
That's like so super cool to meet such people! (:

And actually, they're pretty cool people most of them.
So I quite like the company I had! :D

This is Jovin! She's from ACJC as there are a few people from ACJC who came to the competition.
She's like this very lively and friendly person whom I met during lunch on the first day.
And she knows quite a few people!

What a coincidence!
I'm so lucky to have met her (:

And last but not least, HISSOC!

I did not know many people from HISSOC earlier, but now I got to know quite a few of them.
It was so fun, I really love HISSOC. I think that it's the most awesome CCA for me right now.

MUN MUN MUNs! Gotta love that life.
And I wanna participate more in the preparations for RMUN.
Cos it's gonna be awesommmmme!

More pictures of us! (:

And there's Wu Wei, whom I think is just the most awesome friend ever.
I really like talking to her, 'cos she understands a lot of things and it's just so fun to like discuss about people and life and quirky things which happen in our lives.

I'll definitely look forward to seeing her in the canteen more often (:

AND DID YOU KNOW, I didn't realise it was her!
I mean, she usually wears specs and ties her hair in a ponytail.
But that day, she just let her hair down and all!

Ahhhh... I have the best memories of people (:

OKAY, that's all!
Will update this blog quite regularly.

Promise this,

Raffles Open House 2012

2012-01-11T01:16:00.003+08:00

Picture: http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Raffles-Institution-Year5-6-Open-House-2012/258959937491675

WOOHOOO it's another crazy fun day! (:
OMG, I just have to say, I LOVE RAFFLES.

BTW, the picture above is hard work from the Councillors!
So all rights belong to them. Just saying (:
(but I can post right!)
_________________________________________

So today was our Open House 2012, which saw quite many Year 5s coming to visit our school!
I was there too because I had to tend to my Red Cross & HISSOC booths, which both did not really need me there actually -___________-
But I certainly did not regret coming! Because it was loads of fun.

It started off with performances in the Multi-Purpose Hall (MPH), where the Choir started singing!
It was so beautiful - I really miss singing & choir :/
I REALLY DO!

Then I saw many juniors! (: especially from CHS.
Was so glad to see them actually, because CHS is like my home school (:

I also met up with some Xin Min people who were with Tzu Ning.
Yufei and I were like touring them around even though we weren't Befrienders :P

OH - and there's also a free Milo truck van!
The one CHS always don't allow us to drink from -.- we used to rent one every Cross Country until 2002.
_________________________________________

And to see all my friends again! (:
I feel so heartened that they hadn't forgotten me after the long 2-month holidays.
Ahhh, it really feels good to be back in school.

Although this is like J2 year, and I'm old and whatsnots, I feel quite happy too.
Like new challenges, new resolutions and all.
I also pledge to finish homework by the weekends and not pull it to like Tuesday.

I really love Raffles. I really do! :D
__________________________________________

Actually right, that's all for today -.-

So adios people!
Jradon.

Being Happy (:

2012-01-10T00:44:00.002+08:00

Happy - Leona Lewis

I really love this song. I started singing it yesterday out of nowhere.
It kinda reflects my life right now, and it has a magical touch to it.

Cos I'm just trying to be happy (:
_______________________________________________

Well, it's the first day of shcool in RJC, and guess what?

WE HAVE A PARTY: Homecoming 2012!

Basically, it was a "WELCOME BACK SENIORS!" assembly and with a buffet as well!
Hahaha whoever organised this (probably councillors), really big thank you to you!
It was really a great day (:

It was so nice seeing all my friends back, and seeing people smiling laughing joking.
All these made me smile too. I instantly felt happy (:

And talking with all my friends again - what a feeling!
Hanging out with them, bitching with them and just going crazy.

I feel really lucky to have such a life like that (:
____________________________________________

Anyway, today was also the release of O Level results!
And CHS did exceedingly well, improving from L1R5 9.8 to 9.2! (:
So proud of all my juniors!

Some didn't get what they expected, but it's okay (:
What's most important is not choosing the best JC/Poly, but the school where you'll feel comfortable and encouraged in excelling in what you do best, and having companionship with all your friends.
Be it new friends, old friends, enemies-turned-friends or vice versa, life will definitely be a new chapter for you!

So why hold back and well up yourself?
GO AHEAD AND SHINE.

I feel as if I'm writing to myself sometimes. Really helps (:
Just be happy, and stay a joyful life. That's what'll fuel you with energy for every day.

Don't lose touch with your old friends, don't migrate to new friends and forget old ones!
You never know when you may need a friend to talk to, or play with.

Oh dear, I really miss sec sch life. Now I have so many responsibilities.
________________________________________________

I love you guys, really <3

Loads of love,
Jradon (:

Start of J2

2012-01-08T21:42:00.003+08:00

Heyo world, sorry for not updating even though I promised you guys.
Just kinda busy all these months, lemme summarise 2011 for you, with all the more major events in my life:

1) O Level Results - January

Can't believe it has been a year since I last took that certificate. Was quite happy as I was expecting less of it. But still thanks to God and my friends who accompanied me along my secondary school journey!

2) Raffles Junior College / Institution - throughout 2011

I got good scores so it was either VJC or RJC. My parents told me RJC so I took it lor.

It was very difficult to fit in at first because there was ~ 1250 students in my cohort, and I only know like what, about 40 when I first arrived there. Thank God for RMUN, at least I knew some people first (: and there was always my Cat High buddies who'll help me out. Love you guys man!

Honestly, I was quite uncomfortable in the school during the Feb - April period, because I felt quite lonely (OMG I'M A LONER?!) and most of my closer CHS friends were busy with their own stuff too. And also being in the presence of these academic gods... wow. That really takes your breath away.

My previous class (I opted for PHME at first) has this Vietnamese scholar, who was super funny and friendly to me! He always makes the class laugh. And he shares with me loads of interesting things too. And he's super blur HAHAHA! He'll always remain as my good friend forever! (:

Then on 25 April, I opted for BCME instead. Why? Because History in JC level was kinda... busy and different from sec sch. And there was no PBME. And I'd choose Bio over Physics. So, I changed both of my subjects PH to BC. And then I entered my new class, 12S03S.

There was Tony at first from CHS, so yay a buddy! :D he has always been a friendly guy to me who I can talk with very comfortably. Also, the class was super funny. We have an awesome GP teacher who's quite open and he opens up to us many topics around the world. His lessons are usually fascinating then.

And we have such lively and lovable classmates! Everyone is such a nice person and we even have the opera singer, Laura, whose contagious laughter will brighten up your day! (:

Since then, I have love 12S03S (:

3) ISLE - throughout 2011

There was the ISLE Week, the Concert to prepare, and the actual trip which has just finished in early December. Quite tiring and ate up a bit of my holidays but I'm contented (: cos it was definitely worth it. I love ISLE haha and all the friends I met there! :D

4) Red Cross Youth Chapter - throughout 2011

My first CCA in RJC. It was there where I met many people too and I find out that there actually are so many caring people in my midst. They made me feel comfortable in RJC and always have a smile on their faces.

And there's even a guy who has about the same name as me - Yu Xuan! He's a very nice guy who can be pretty entertaining sometimes (:

I don't say it or show it, but I quite love RCYC (: hope no one there finds out about this. So mushy.

5) JC Mid-Years & Promos

These were the more disappointing parts of the year. I was constantly getting scolded by my teachers, and they were half-giving up on me. I felt super terrible.

I mean, you come to a good school and give teachers such a lazy attitude, I was really finding trouble right? But I had such awesome classmates who studied with me before the exams, who encouraged me to work hard for myself. I was sincerely touched (:

Secretly, I want to thank them butttttt it's been quite a while already and if I thank them now it'll be quite awkward right -___-? However guys, I'll never forget how you guys helped me. I'll help you guys too someday, even if it's as easy as just being the friendly guy you know (:

6) Project Work - throughout 2011

This was seriously a tiring thing to do. My mind was constantly thinking about PW, and how to improve on my performance. Unfortunately, I kinda lost my creative side since secondary school. I think I'm starting to regain my lost side but PW is over anyways. And my OP was terrible. Hah. But I'm glad it's over. I say I'm hoping for at least a 'B', but I really want an 'A'.
_____________________________________________________

So those were the more major things in 2011.

I think I have changed a lot, but I'll save that (REALLY, I'll update kay!) for another post.
I realised I like blogging OMG I seriously miss it!

Haix... the loves I have in secondary school (:

Okay got to go do my soon-to-be-overdue homework. Going to get screwed tomorrow but at least minimise the screwing. TOODLES.

Let's pray J2 will be an amazing year! :D

Volkswagen Women's Table Tennis Tournament

2011-11-05T19:02:00.004+08:00

So last week on Saturday and Sunday, Teck Lee invited me to watch the Volkswagen Women's World Cup! (:
The sport was table tennis, something that I'm very noob in.
It was our catch up session since we haven't met each other for many months already.

When I went in, it was already Teck Lee's biggest star playing!
Her name is Ishikawa Kasumi, who hails from Japan.
She is currently one of the top Japanese players for table tennis! :D
It's so super cool to see like a pro just right in front of your eyes!

Anyway, Teck Lee got the tickets for the tournament through a competition in the newspapers!
AND HE WON HAHAHAHHA!!! :D
Next time I'll participate in such competitions too, and if i win anything, I'll treat Teck Lee back (:
_____________________________________

For Ishikawa's matches, TL and I were cheering like crazy crazy fans.
Seriously, like clapping with the clapping things so loudly, and jumping around.
People near us were like, "Whuut." but they were glad to see such big fans of her (:

It was most of TL's cheering which caught the attention of her!
She was like nodding and smiling to him (:
SO COOL RIGHT?!
Like she was thankful that she had such awesome supporters in Singapore!
(sorry for the self-praise above)

Although she couldn't enter the final stages of the competition, that didn't make her give up halfway or anything!
She still fought hard and with determination, winning the last match.
Such sportsmanship is something I must learn to have (:

Anyway, we took pictures with her! :D

TL got his fan signed too! :D of course he's not like the perverted auctioner.

The perverted auctioner was this guy who had a perverted face, and disturbed everyone while he was climbing to get all the signatures of all the superstars in the tournament.
He failed COUNTLESS of times, while his shameless attempts at trying to get others to help him sign his autograph book.
Oh, and we theorise (ees dere such a werd?) that his client was angry because when he failed, he called his client to tell him.
In other words, he's just getting peoples autographs so he can SELL it.

Quite a laugh, really. (:
_________________________________________

OKAY, it's just a short post as I'm quite busy now.
Enjoy the below video as all Singaporeans should relate to it (:
BYES!

Another New Beginning

2011-11-02T20:58:00.002+08:00

Heyo kiddos! That's right, I'M BACK! :D
After my loooooong hiatus, I guess it would be good that I finally write something here once again.

I'll try to inject a little bit of humour as always, and of course brush up my english.
I mean, you should know by now that my blog is always adamant on having a high standard of english.
Can't blame me for that. I guess that's just my type of voice, I don't like to sound like a rambling kid anyways.
Tried speaking easily for the below posts, they are seriously boring.
________________________________________

I have so many things to blog about, which I will do in the next few posts.
Quite busy today so heheh.

So following this order, I'll be blogging about my daily life:
1) Volkswagen Table Tennis Match with Teck Lee! :D
2) Update of School Life
3) Current Music (:

So you'll be seeing these 3 posts the next time you come here!
I'm kinda busy now, so I'll have to postpone!

I guess I can safely say that the next post will be up before the coming Saturday ends (:

TAHTAH PEEPS,
Paradoxical Apostle Jradon (:

Commendations & Condemnations

2011-08-04T02:09:00.004+08:00

Okay, so we just finished our entire ISLE Week project! :D
YAAAAAY!!! HAHAHA OMG IT WAS SO FREAKING FUN.
Now, I feel a reason to like Raffles! (:
I feel, quite included now hahaha so my life is an uphill spiral.

I don't wanna talk about ISLE yet as I'm kinda busy right now.
It's 2:15am for freaking goodness and I have EoM to do.
___________________________________________

Since last Friday PTM, and me being sick for this week's Monday and Tuesday, the teachers have been eyeing me a lot.
Like today after every tutorial class, they'll ask to see me.
And talk about my grades.

Honestly, I wish I can tell them what's holding me back.
I realise that if I want to get promoted to J2, I must work damn hard for it already.

In case you don't know, here is an overview of my CT Results:

GP - C
Biology - B
Chemistry - U
Mathematics - S
Economics - S

GP was quite okay I guess. I failed composition so it means I can get a B for GP actually!
Biology was FUN :D hahaha felt good that I could answer the questions!

Chemistry was stupid omg. I didn't know what the hell a thiosulfate ion is supposed to be, and only after the exam I realised it was the S2O3^2- ion.
DAMN IT! I could have gotten at least an S, in retrospect.

Mathematics... I could've done better ):
Economics is a failure. I mean, I'm a failure at it. Not really interested in it anyways.

But then my econs teacher Mr Teo is like, pressuring/encouraging me to do well.
Or at least a respectable grade.
It makes me feel wanna do good for it!
Which is why I've started reading my Scarcity notes all over again.
Xuan Yu is a good boy eh! :D
_______________________________________________

So last Sunday, the ISLE Week Committee went to Bugis for lunch! :D

I shan't talk much about lunch because that's for a different day.

I wanna talk about the movie we watched: Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows Part 2.
OMG, it could have been so much nicer.
I imagined the last fight to be so much grander and loads of lights flying everywhere.
Not really much, heh :/

Plus the automatons (statue robot people) were so NOOB can!
The giants just whacked them off so efficiently.
Like seriously? Rusty statues in Hogwarts?
Put some magnesium in it please!

I find the battle between Voldermort and Harry a bit too easy.
I mean, a bit too quick and non-flashy.
Again, not enough scripting!

I have to say I like the scene in Bellatrix's vault though. Quite nice! :D
Although the entire Gringotts Bank journey should've been longer!
TOO SHORT AGAIN.

Snape's dream was well done though (:
No complaints there!

I've got to go, so tatah! Sorry for not updating regularly ):

Pilgrimage

2011-07-11T20:49:00.002+08:00

What is a pilgrimage?

A pilgrimage is a journey or search of great moral or spiritual significance. Typically, it is a journey to a shrine or other location of importance to a person's beliefs and faith. Such sites may be commemorated with shrines or temples that devotees are encouraged to visit for their own spiritual benefit: to be healed or have questions answered or to achieve some other spiritual benefit. A person who makes such a journey is called a pilgrim.

- Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilgrimage

Ahh, an act to faith, to yearn or celebrate spiritual guidance from our religions, what we belief.
In the modern context, people usually amass at significant places, especially holy places mentioned in their bibles, in service and celebration to their spiritual faith.

The most famous I would say, would be the Hajj which is by the Muslims. It never fails to grab headlines of newspapers, especially Singapore.

The Kaaba, in Mecca

So why am I typing about all this stuff here? About pilgrimages and all?

I've always wanted to go on my own personal kind of pilgrimage of sorts, to learn something of myself, to be enlightened.
Whether is it to get closer to my faith or to reach a realisation about what I should do about my life, I'm all for it.
It's not just about me too, it's about how I should treat other people and accept them and all.

I played this game, Mass Effect, and it has these humanoids, quarians, who embark on their own Pilgrimages too.
Their journey requires them to find something useful to their resource-limited bases, a path of adulthood, before they are accepted as part of the tribe.

It's a very interesting concept, which has got me thinking too.
____________________________________________

Maybe, I need my own time and space to reflect on life and whatever it is.
Like, what do I want? What should I do?

Everyday's a busy day of being fed with homework&commitments fodder.
It's getting a bit tired, I need something fresh now.

I should rest soon, talk to you guys later! (:

ISLE Week Concert Preparations

2011-07-06T23:36:00.002+08:00

Woah, life is becoming more fun and busy at the same time.
I've been placed in charge as the Concert Organiser WOOHOOO!!! :D

Because I'm in this elective called ISLE (International Service Learning Elective), where we go to several countries to help/educate the poorer people.
My team is ISLE Lijiang, where we'll go to Lijiang to teach the people English.
It'll be held around November - December.

So there's this ISLE Week, where we publicise our event to the entire school!
And on the Friday of that week, 29 July, we'll be organising the ISLE Week Concert.

The theme of our ISLE Week this year is called "Shoes & Laces". I think.
So our concert will be called "To Tie It All Up".

Joshua Lim did a very fantastic job is creating the ticket and poster design! :O
I would post the pictures here once it's done. No copyrights of course (:
He's a very zai editor. Wow, I wish I had his photoshopping skills.
___________________________________________

Oh, I failed Economics! For Case Study. Haven't got back Essay, but not very optimistic.
Tomorrow will be the return of Chemistry as well D:
Actually, I don't really care much about results. It's like, you already know what you're going to score.
Although, I'll gladly welcome any A's to surprise me MUAHAHHAHAH :DDD

I think I did well for GP! :D Hope my result will reflect it too.
Unless of course, I went out of the question.
_______________________________________________

Busy now, having Project Work. Talk to ya guys soon! (:

Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall

2011-06-30T22:18:00.002+08:00

Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall - Coldplay

This music video is the latest by Coldplay and it's freaking awesome!
It's like makes me wonder how much time they invested into creating this video.
'Cos it's like repeated shots and shots and shots and repainting and repainting of walls all over and over again.
And most parts of it is as if it's taken in a single shot kinda thing, meaning the camera never pans away.

It's a magical artwork, I like very much (:
____________________________________

Hmmm so exams are OVER!!! :D
Oh, but there's A Level SPA in July/August though :|

It still feels like the holidays, even though the first week of Term 3 has just flown past.
I guess there's many things to look forward to the next few days.

Like there's something coming up tomorrow, Saturday is CHS Homecoming and Monday I have so many group outings don't know which one to go! :X

And there's also my current hobby-chasing of dance, where I'm getting closer to finding a studio to learn the ropes of hip-hop! :D
Hahaha omg this is so freakin' cool (:

Alright, this is a short post. Bye byes!

So, Big Revelations

2011-06-20T01:38:00.002+08:00

You know when you fall headfirst flat on the ground, you just feel very bloody weak.
And then you'll conjure up a billion excuses and a scent of determination on how you're going to improve yourself.

But you do know, you're going the wrong way.

Many of the times, when I've like sank in an all time low, I'll tell myself, "I MUST DO THIS, DON'T DO THAT" and yadda yadda the cow jumped over the moon.
Well, I do follow these rules in my new code of conduct.
But realise, I never reach the happiness I thought it would bring me.

In fact, it brings me sadness and disappointment, because of the knowing that I probably wouldn't be able to reach my goal.
What I was doing was trying to change ME, the person I am.
But, how can I?

We know, these solutions are short-term and wouldn't define us in the long run.
But yet we still do it and it ends up hurting us even more than we want.

Sigh... I know I'm being dodgy here and not being direct with the subject but... such things I have to keep my mouth shut.

But note to self: I have no one to answer to, except to myself. And yep, God.
____________________________________

So it all draws to close, the entire JUNE HOLIDAYS.
Sad right, I know :/

I did have quite a packed holiday though, as if everyday was something special, some event happening.
I just came back from Red Cross camp held at the Ngee Ann Polytechnic.
Made many new friends and learnt much more life experience other than first aid stuffs (:

And I saw the people from Famine Camp! Because it's held on the same location.
Haha SOOOOOO MANY FAMILIAR FACES :D
_____________________________________

Alright, I'll post more. Tireds. Nights!

My Favourite Sexy Songs

2011-06-12T22:57:00.002+08:00

HELLO PEOPLE! :D
This post may contain inappropriate content... NOT.
That's because there's seriously nothing wrongful about it, bitches.
_______________________________________________

So here are a FEW of my favourite, well, sexy slutty songs :P
Oh, and I don't mean to demean the song or anything. It's just that these songs are constantly punctuated with poppy, explosive rhythms in them.

1) I Like That - Static Revenger & Richard Vission feat. Luciana

2) Might Like You Better - Amanda Blank

"Might like you better... if we slept together... *guilty pleasures*"

3) If U Seek Amy - Britney Spears

4) Body Shots - Kaci Battaglia feat. Ludacris

"Baby get the whip cream, feeling like a wet dream." <<< LOL!

5) Get Sexy - Sugababes

6) Dirty Talk - Wynter Gordon

7) Hot Summer - Monrose

8) Reach Out - Hilary Duff

She just looks so beautiful in this video. The rest of the world thinks she's a slut though.

9) Rude Boy - Rihanna

One of her most successful songs. Especially in clubs. Under Only Girl (In The World) though, as it's still the best. I find S&M too direct, but it's still catchy haha!

10) Satisfaction - Benny Benassi

OMG THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'M WATCHING THIS VIDEO.
And uh... you can judge it for yourselves.
But whattheheck, all the other videos are like that too nowadays.
___________________________________________

So those are my favourite few slutty songs, and they relate a lot to sex in the music industry.
Well, these songs are also some of the most popular songs ever to be played in clubs.
Most of them charted very high on Dance Club charts as well internationally.
Now, can you put a finger to that? :D

And that's that for today.
Just a short post on my music faves.
And don't get immature on me and start bugging me on how can I post such things okay.
I didn't do anything wrong...

REALLY!

RMUN 2011 & X Men: First Class

2011-06-09T20:44:00.011+08:00

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! :D
Okay I'm just gliding in here since my few weeks of *ahem ahem* absence.

So I'm just going to be short and sweet in this post.
I try to.
_______________________________________

On 1 June to 3 June 2011, HISSOC organised our very prestigious annual Raffles Model United Nations (RMUN)! :D

This will mark my 3rd time being in the event, which is very fun.
And I feel it's the highlight of my JC life (:
It's just too amazing an event to be missed!

Okay so this year I'm the Assistant Director in General Assembly 1.
Along with me are my comrades Yufei, Cheryl and Rohan! :D
They're like so awesome people, I SERIOUSLY WANNA CHAIR WITH THEM NEXT YEAR HAHAHAHAHHA!!! :D

And we also have our awesome Directors Ren Jie, Cheryl Seah, Cheryl Fong and Brandon! (:
They're such great Chairs, seriously so cool!

Okay, the whole event is just too fun to be written in words.
I mean, I'm the note passer as well, but Yufei and I kept talking to the delegates.
So it was all fun and interaction as well.
Oh, and Desmond from CHS represented France! Hahaha nice to see a familiar face (:

The awesome GA1 :D

The super-cool HISSOC! (:

And finally, the great GA1 Chairs & Assistant Directors!

I can't wait for next year's RMUN. It's gonna be better.
________________________________________

So RCHN had an outing yesterday, and we went to NEXXX to watch X Men: First Class.
It's AN AWESOME MOVIE OMGGG.
I'll rate it a 4.8/5 stars (:

The good guys... well most of them.

Not only were there loads of superpowers and crazy mutant abilities, there were familiar faces in the cast of the show!

Surprise surprise, because the cast starred many well-known actors.
I'll just name 2 of my favourites (:

1) LUCAS TILL as Havok

Okay, I can't find many nice pictures of him, but here it goes!
Lucas Till played Havoc, the laser-shooting&spinning guy in this show.
The effects were awesome, and he kinda reminded me of Cyclops as well.

Where might you have seen him?

He acted in Hannah Montana: The Movie as the main guy/love of Miley Cyrus!
And also more famously, the guy in Taylor Swift's You Belong With Me music video.
He seems kinda country to me, but this metallic part of him is a nice welcome!

2) Nicholas Hoult as Beast

The geeky guy whom I thought seemed familiar.
Then only halfway in the show when epiphany slapped me in the face.

Nicholas may not be as well-known here in Singapore as his shows aren't really officially aired here, but I guess people like me who depend more on YouTube than MediaCorp will know him.

If you have forgotten, he acted in Skins! :D:D:D:D:D
THE MOST AWESOME TV SHOW ON EARTH MUAHAHHAHHAA.
For teenagers. Strictly teenagers.

He plays Nate in Skins Season 1 & 2, and only the original UK version.
This time, he plays the blue Beast in X Men, and it's not all just brawn and muscles, the geeky side of him plays out with a tinge of romance.
Well, until Mystique bails out for Magneto. (USELESS SPOILER, but you already read it :P)
__________________________________________

You know, everyone wishes they have their own superpowers.
If I can be an X Men of any kind, Mystique is my favourite.
I just love the thought of shapeshifting into anyone I like.

Ain't that cool? :D

Alright, BYE GUYS! :D

My Hair Looks FIERCE

2011-05-25T22:08:00.009+08:00

So today we had our GP Common Test hooray! :D
I'm glad it ended already. Looking forward to the June holidays!

My June holidays are already stacked up with many plans.
They include finding a hiphop dance centre which Yu Fan and I are learning together.
Then Joey also said she wanted to join, so I have to ask her as well.
Then there's a lot of Red Cross stuff too...
And RMUN! OMG, who can ever forget about that. Most looking forward to it.
_________________________________________

I got a bit bored today, so I started resuming watching America's Next Top Model (:

I'm still stuck at Cycle 13 (don't laugh at me!) while Cycle 17 is already in production.
I am very very lagging behind.

So Tyra usually makes up some little words and quotable phrases, which we all love to copy her!
Like 'smize', smiling with your eyes and 'H2T', head to toe.
Sometimes she can be funny, but sometimes it gets a little bit too overused eh?

I MISS HER SAYING THE WORD: FIERCE.

It's like the most quoted word on ANTM, in my opinion.
__________________________________________

And ANTM has really drawn my attention to HAIR.
Like I really like how these models can just change their hair at will and have so many crazy hairstyles which sell and spell fashion.
It's just incredible!

Here are some photos:

Actually, I don't know where this girl came from.
But I just googled "fierce hair antm" and she appeared.
So, she's in!

Just look at her lion's mane...

And who can forget our beautiful crazy mohawk girl? (:

ONE OF MY FAVOURITE EPISODES: HAIR WARS! :DDD

Haha just look at their hair can!
It's like a bombardment of colours and ostentatious style.
This is what I like (: I like very much!

And how can we miss our legendary transsexual AMANDA LEPORE.

My Hair Looks Fierce - Amanda Lepore

"I don't know much about clothes, but my hair looks FIERCE!"

Okay, actually, I don't know who she is -________-
I just read the YouTube comments and guess roughly she's some high-profile girl.

And this song is FREAKING FUNNY.
I first noticed it during an advertisement of ANTM on Channel 5.
And my blog title is also the main lyric line from the song.

Enjoy! xD
______________________________________________

Speaking of fashion stuffs and whatnots, I have decided (really, really) to go on a WEIGHT-LOSS PROGRAMME :D

As in, it's self-moderated programme, so I don't pay people money to eat drugs.
And it'll include lots of exercise! (: can train for my endless NAPFA retests anyways.
Perhaps, it might even get me my 4 months of freedom from NS muahahhahaha!
Biggest wish, literally!

And maybe I'll start finding nice-smelling soaps as well (:
I'm sick and tired of the boring Dettol/Head&Shoulders/Dove in my bathroom.
Strongest smelling soaps would include like, Herbal's Essence, or FREAKING LUX.

OMG, like ALL the maids use LUX.
Which is why they all have a very luxxy smell, which is damn strong and smells of flowers.
Which is nice too anyway (:
AND NO, I DON'T SMELL THEIR HAIR OKAY.

But these strong-smelling soaps don't usually last very long.
Like 20 minutes or so, the smell just disappears :/
SAAAD!

So this June holidays I must find proper soaps, right? :D
_______________________________________________

Okay bye kiddos! :D
Gotta go already, so late.

And remember, GET YOUR HAIR FIERCE.

Tata, Tiara Tyra! (:

Just something to keep you guys laughing (:

VJCO Concert

2011-05-23T23:57:00.005+08:00

Hmmm, sorry folks for the lack of updates! :/
But I've been really busy the past few days.

I don't have the time to update much, but I shall update more or less about the past week!
_________________________________________

Last Monday, I went for VJCO Concert! (:
Martin, Eugene, Tai Sheng and Xuan Ming were all performing, so went to support them yeah!

So it was quite fun, and there were many experts in the Chinese Orchestra as well.
There was this guy, who could play the... omg I don't know the name of the instrument ._., but it was something like a giant xylophone, and it was pretty cool!

They also played a CO-fied version of theme song from Pirates of the Carribean, which was AWESOME! :D

And did I mention, how much noise we made during the entire concert? :P
We cheered like mad for our friends! Woohoo Martin was like surely feeling like damn proud eh he got such awesome friends :D

Some pictures!

Dylan, Yu Fan, Martin, Me, Yong Pei

Tai Sheng, Yu Fan, Me

Me, Yu Fan, Martin, Yong Pei, Dylan

Xiang Kai left early too! So never take pictures with him :/
But still, the night was a very fun night! :D
_____________________________________________

A few weeks back, my Biology teacher in my new class 12S03S had to leave us!
But yeah, here's a picture of the entire class posing with her ><

Bye Ms Choo, but will see you again in term 3!
___________________________________________

Anywhere - Alphastates

This song is so saddening! And nice at the same time! (:
Such bands deserve to be more recognised!

Speaking of bands being recognised, there are many bands that once they breakthrough to mainstream music, THEIR MUSIC START TO CHANGE! D:
Like they start to sound very pop-ish and like another same ol' music you can hear anywhere.
Thank God for bands like Paramore, which still have their own tastes!
____________________________________________

Alright, bye guys! (:

Animal Arithmetic

2011-05-18T00:18:00.000+08:00

So much happened this week, but I have no time to update!
Next time okay? (:

But here's a GREAT music video to enjoy:

Animal Arithmetic - Jonsi

THIS IS CRAZY NICE MUSIC OKAY.
It's damn colourful, and it hooked me from the start of the song!
And I don't know what the guy is speaking, but whatevs! :D

Enjoy!

I Heart Hollywood

2011-05-10T22:09:00.009+08:00

Well, these days other than school, what can I talk about?

I know, let's talk about my DREAMLAND.
______________________________________

Welcome, to freaking oh-my-god, the heaven of any film & show industry in the world:

I don't really have to spell it out for you, right? (:
It's right there: HOLLYWOOD.

There, I said it.

I LOOOVE HOLLYWOOD.
Ever since I was small, I always wanted to be an actor (some part of me, yeah).
My mother said I used to grab the main roles in the theatre productions my kindergarten has.
I've been a cow (LOL), Moses, and a few other roles as well.

Oh, and I do remember I've been a Malay girl as well. But that's another story.
___________________________________________

You know, whenever I watch TV shows, I'll just appreciate how good these actors are!

My favourite TV shows are usually comedic more than of romance.
I don't really favourite blood-sucking vampire shows (True Blood), but I do occasionally like the medieval magics of shows like Legend Of The Seeker.

And I do like very theory-based shows like FRINGE. Not LOST.
LOST was good only in seasons 1, maybe 2?
After that, it became a tad too boring :/
And I still don't understand the show anyway.
Yet, JJ Abrahms (is that how you spell it?) is a great producer (:
_______________________________________________

MY MOST FAVOURITE SHOW ON EARTH.

Hahaha, I know it might be weird that a guy likes Ugly Betty, but the show is nice!
It is like SO FUNNY, I could rewatch it several times and over again!
I JUST LOVE IT. Sad that ABC canceled after its fourth season.

My favourite character? Who else, but AMANDA TANEN.
She's like the gorgeous chick in the show alright, and she's so damn BIMBOTIC.
And I LIKE HER! Hahahahaha! :D
She's really, really funny.

Just YouTube her and you can see all the silly things she do.

Critical, humorous and damn well-written witty.

Boston Legal is like another one of my favourite shows!
Not only is it about the law, it's also about human behaviour, or the funny side of it.

I think Boston Legal has one of the BEST camera movements ever!
You can see that the cameraman really knows his stuff (or maybe it's the director), to create the humorous effects.

That's why, I love Boston Legal.

Drop Dead Diva, is another law-ish show like Boston Legal, but expect more bimboticness here.

The story is about this model who got killed in a car crash, and her spirit enters another empty vessel.
That of a seemingly unattractive woman (I think she's pretty anyway).

So she's now a damn freaking smart genious lawyer, and she's out to do some good for mankind.
It really touches my heart, this show. It's certainly a great production (:

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA ANTM!
You wanna be on top? LOL.

I respect ANTM because it's funny, and it's really about the empowerment of women.
And inner beauty, and art, and causes.

ANTM isn't some bimbotic show of some girls running around in showy costumes or something like that.
There are some parts of the show where you can relate to as well.

My favourite person is ALLISON HAVARD, from Cycle 13 (:

And this, is a superb picture as well. Though Allison is not inside.
But look at the brilliance of the picture, the colours, the backdrop.
It's freaking amazing photography skills, and creation of sets.
Such skills are like so underrated here in Singapore.

You know, ANTM has certainly changed my views of models and the modelling industry.
Usually, I'd ignore the giant advertisement posters put up at stores and malls.
But ANTM has changed the way I look at advertisements.
Now, I usually have a visual treat whenever I admire the posters and the models in them.
And r.e.s.p.e.c.t. these people.
_________________________________________

Hollywood, sigh, Hollywood, is so amazing (:
It's not about a place of riches and luxury, and living in Beverly Hills, and adopting foreign children.
It's more than that: Hollywood is HEAVEN on earth.
As blasphemous as that is, we all do know that we secretly admire something that has come out of the industry, don't we?

I haven't started on the movies yet.
________________________________________

Maybe it's because I'm not in Choir anymore.
Maybe it's because I don't get a chance to go up to the podium and do my entertainment anymore.
Maybe it's because I really envy others who all are able to do it so well.

I really miss being up there, and doing my stuff.
Be it just a small audience, or a large crowd of people.
I really want to do it again.

I shall finish this blog post with a line I always wanted to say:

I fucking own the stage.

Exhausted :/

2011-05-10T00:37:00.001+08:00

You know, I know I promised you guys to write a post about the General Elections thing.
But I can't be bothered now, I GOT SO MUCH STUFF TO DO.

OMG, I NEED TO SLEEP. Bye guys!

Determinate!

2011-05-06T20:56:00.002+08:00

Determinate - Lemonade Mouth

This song is just so nice, and it's freaking produced by DISNEY.
Like after so long, there's finally a nice song by them (:

And this song is rising up the charts, especially in Billboards Hot 100! :D
SO KEEP SUPPORTING IT HAHAHAHAHHA!!!
________________________________________

You know, school has been much better these days.
Like less stressful, and at least I've got a direction to head now instead of wandering aimlessly.
And I've awesome friends around me! Whether they're from my class or not.

AND THE WORLD IS SUCH A SMALL PLACE!
Like everyone knows everybody from different JCs, it's just awesome (:
I discovered this especially in my new class hahaha!
Won't say anything yet! :P

So I got new Biology and Chemistry stuff to learn :/
But I've got a long weekend this week, so more time to STUDY :D
____________________________________________

My Song Ericsson is facing loads of problems these days, so I'm looking forward to GETTING A NEW PHONE (whoopee!) :D
If I'm not wrong, my contract should end about... this year?
Or is it next year? If it's next year, I'm still pretty screwed.

And then I'll be thinking to myself, stick to SE or change to iPhone?
Because I just want my Angry Birds hahahaha!
That's like seriously the bestest game.
And Song Ericsson after a few months become very lag!
Although camera and music quality are quite good though!
______________________________________________

I gotta go, bye guys!
AND VOTE FOR THE RIGHT PARTY :D

This Weekend

2011-04-30T17:36:00.002+08:00

Hi everybody again!
Okay I'm back here to type, but it's just a short post.

The Shield & The Sword - Clare Maguire

HAHAHA this video is like making fun of Lady GaGa and Katy Perry.
BTW, this song is not some frivolous old music okay.
It's delivered by a powerful voice, something like Adele's.
Instantly, I like her already (:

Talking about YouTube, you'll always see some stupid things which are like so irritating.
Things like, "973 people have bad romances".
Or "Let's all take our guns out and shoot the 270 people!"
Or even "651 people saw the dislike button as DIS I LIKE".

I mean like OMG lah, really? :/
I think it's really irritating lor, for most of the times.
Of course, people will just tell you "DON'T READ LAH."
__________________________________________

This weekend is going to be a FUN ONE!
Because there are so many happy things going to happen!

Firstly, it's going to be Ashley's birthday! :D
And OMG SO HONOURED I'LL BE CELEBRATING WITH HER!

Secondly, it's SOMEONE's birthday as well!
I can't say! It's supposed to be a secret!

Thirdly, I'm going to meet up with my new PW group!
Remember I changed class?
Now my group consists of Zhang Jie, Vivian, Qiao Yoke, Amanda and myself.
Hope we'll do well! :D

Fourthly, there's JAZZ CONCERT!
I'm so excited on going for it!
It'll be like hanging out with my previous classmates too! :D

Fifthly, I DON'T NEED TO DO HOMEWORK! :D
Okay, that's a lie.
But then you see I'm a newbie, so I really don't know how to do okay.
But I'll attempt lah, I'm not THAT lazy.

Sixthly, WORLD RED CROSS DAY is coming! :D
So the week-long held event is going to come on soon!
YAY! HAHAHAHHAHA all that hard work.

Life rocks! :D
_________________________________-

Alright peoples, will update on more things soon!

12S06R

2011-04-26T21:27:00.004+08:00

HELOOOOO WORLD!
I know it's been quite a while since I blogged, but that's because last week was severely filled with so many activities and intense moments.

Last week, was my last week with my awesome class, 12S06R.

I can't say that I instantly loved my class, in fact, I didn't feel belong to my class at the beginning.
I felt like a nobody - just some guy floating around in and out of the class.

But somehow, during the past 3 weeks, we got together very strongly.
_________________________________________

I remembered the time when a few of our classmates, lead by Daniel, to participate in the IHC Runway competition.
BB FTW! :D (my green house peoples)

Although there were only Daniel, Natasha and me, still it was quite fun! (:

That was not the only time we had fun together.
There were also concerts that our classmates performed in!
Like our class is like so superbly musically inclined and talented!!!

We have singers, violinists, pianists and erhu-ers and dizi-ers! :D
And not forgetting our very own guitarist Dion! :D

I'd say, our class is the best at making some beautiful noise! (:
__________________________________________

Then we had CLASS CAMP.

It was held at Pulau Ubin.
And to be honest, I still didn't feel as connected and bonded as I wanted it to be.
However, it was still a fun thing our class can come together and PLAY!

We even had a SINGALONG SESSION at night! :D
Woohooo! That was when I felt that our class rocks much more hahahaha!

Also, that was the time I got closer to Poh Jie, my very good friend (:

We did lots of crazy stuff, and fun things as well!
Huy never fails to make everyone laugh (:
He's like the funniest Vietnamese scholar EVER.
I'm so glad he's a great friend of mine!
___________________________________________

So last week, I was stuck in a dilemma - to change or not to change.
Then, I was taking the subject combination PHME.

But History is quite different from secondary school, so I rather take another subject ):
I know the lessons and tutorials are FUN(NY), especially with Ms Baig's personality.
She's always making the class/lecture fun (:

But there is no PBME combination.
And I'd rather take BCME than PCME.

So in the end, I emailed my school Dean, to take BCME as my subject combination.
_____________________________________________

Last week was my last week I spent with my class 12S06R.
And I really missed them.

I don't know why but the last few weeks I became VERY CLOSE TO THEM.
VERY VERY CLOSE. I DID NOT WANT TO LOSE MY CLASS. ):

I wrote this on FaceBook, because I really wanted to tell them how I felt.

HELLO 12S06R! Today I'm here to talk about some stuff.

From tomorrow morning onwards, I won't be going to class anymore I THINK, as I'm changing subjects from PHME to BCME. Now, I know it's crazy but I will be able to do it, hopefully. But this message isn't about whether I can cope with the new subjects.

Since the beginning when I entered the class, I felt really weird and alone okay. It was really quite difficult to fit in and all. I didn't have my usual friends and all that.

Honestly, I felt really disconnected from the class. This happened even all the way till class camp.

There were some brief periods of connection though - when Jordan, Shi Wei and Gang Yi invited me to play basketball with them; celebrating peoples' birthdays; concerts.

However, for the past 2 weeks, somehow I felt myself growing closer and closer to you guys, and feeling quite connected to you guys more than ever before. I started talking to more of you guys, and some of you guys also text messaged me and all.

So on Thursday, after Physics SPA, I don't know why, but I started to cry. I realised that it'll be really very difficult to leave you guys. 'Cos I know that all of you guys are really awesome people.
____________________________________
So here are some little goodbye notes to you guys (PARDON ANY PRESUMPTUOUSNESS IN THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPHS!!!).

Natasha, Kai Wen & John: You guys have been great CT Reps to me and the class! Like with John & Kai Wen's ever-ready responsible-ness, and with Natasha's great enthusiasm in bringing the class together. You guys must treasure them you know!

Shao Yang, Zekiel, Huy, Kevin: Somehow, most of the times I'd end up the same tables as you guys. So I guess I got closer to you guys at the first part of term 1. You guys have been very understanding and HILARIOUS (omg, Huy!) and always lending me listening ears when I have problems ever since term 1 started-ish. YOU GUYS ARE GREAT! AND AWESOME! Like everytime, you guys will listen to my requests and be ever so understanding! So nice lah you guys. I'll so miss you guys :P

Shao Yang: CHOIR MATE! Although I'm not in Chorale and I don't sing very nicely, you've been a great choirmate I never had! :D I mean it's like we know certain songs and would like sing it, and I noticed how you love singing the background melody. JIAYOU IN CHOIR KAY! And bring back the Gold with HONOURS! :D

Zekiel: Hahaha Zekiel! That time, you still haven't explained how you got your name properly yet! And you've been a great guy lah, always accompanying me and all that! Being in the library or at the PE stadium thing, so FUNNY OMG! :D I think I'll really miss you guys so much!

Huy: YES YOU HUY! Firstly, even though I wasn't even close to you yet, you dared to lend me your anime book! It's like quite WOW, because it's really something 'No Borders-ish'. And I LOVED ASUMADADEADAEDA DAIOH (i forgot how to spell the name T_T)! :D SO FUNNY! And you're also super hilarious! Must keep the class laughing okay! I will miss you and Zekiel and Shao Yang altogether!

Jian Han: I know it's been just a few times, but everytime I sit next to you during lectures or tutorials, you've been quite the guide and talking to me, telling me about other people are all very interesting things. You have also opened my eyes to the knows-and-don'ts of being in RI. So I really wanna thank you a lot (introduce me to more people!) (:

Wern Chieh: WERNCHIEH! Haha actually it's kinda weird because you're the JAE girl who made me feel more secure in Raffles! You're always there to encourage me and know how I feel. And you're always standing up for moral rights, which is very very good!!! :D Congrats on your SYF and hope you'll have more fun in the future. And a big THANK YOU for all the emotional support I needed through these weeks. I really loved the note you gave me and all the caring SMSes (:

Jordan, Gang Yi, Shi Wei: I don't know, but I think that the class looks up to you guys as some sort of Big Brothers. Well, I do actually, because somehow you guys look very mature and act like it as well! :D And also that time when you guys asked me along for basketball? That was a very great thing you guys did and I've been very appreciative of that (: Thanks for everything and continue to help leading the class!!! :D I actually have so much to say but so weird to say it here! :P

Maurice, John: You two make great friends! And also great characters in our class! Maurice, it's been great being your classmate because I think you bring some colour to the class, making it very interesting and all. And with John beside you, you two can really make things very interesting! (: & Maurice, don't forget to FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS, and do what you love!

Selina, Gang Yi, Hans, Poh Jie: MY PW GROUP!!! I'm really sorry that I'll be leaving. I don't know if I'd be a nuisance or burden but you guys are nice people and so hopefully you guys will work together well and get your A's! (:

Dion, Julius, Aurelia, Hans: HEY GUYS! I think it's super-cool to have 4 Indonesian people all from the same village in our class! The diversity in our class is actually something very cool other classes won't have. And if I might, I shall crash every time you guys eat at the secondary school canteen (provided my new timetable allows me to)! (:

Kai Wen: Hey Kaiwen! (: Haha you've been a very nice guy to me, like speaking to me about China and Chinese and all! And especially like during the first few days trying to bring the class together. Xie xie ni! (:

Dehn, Shashi: Haha I always see you guys together. And I think you two are funny! Like everytime the class laughs there'd be you guys leading us on. You two also have very interesting characters and also FUNNY personalities. That's great, continue to brighten up 6R in more uproarious laughters! :DDD
(Q: why did the keyboard disconnect itself from the computer?
A: because it was not its TYPE! HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!! I MADE IT UP MYSELF!!!! MUAHAHAHHAHA!!! okay ._.)

Benedict: Okay I know I've been a bit dao to you so here's my apologies! Actually, I think that your singing is quite awesome and beautiful! I'll get to hear it during jazz concert, right? (: And I voted you as a Councillor! So I hope to hear you sing soon, and that you'll also make the school (and class) proud!

Daniel: HEY DANCERBOI! Haha I wanna thank you for talking to me during the first few days of school and also teaching me dance tricks! As I said, YOU REALLY LOOK LIKE (a thinner version of) ENRIQUE IGLESIAS! So maybe, one day you can use your artistic prowess and combined with your awesome dancing to make the BEST MUSIC VIDEOS. HAHAHAHAHAHHAA. Okay :D

Jiang Jun: Hi General! :D Other than being a talented 5-instrument playing guy who's RENOWNED in the CO world (according to VJC sources), I think you're a great guy as well! Like you're so friendly and always saying hi to me in the MRT. I find it quite surprising that you can meet your secondary school friends everyday in every morning! So cool! Haha (:

Wei Herr: Haha I think you're quite cool and always with the know-it-alls about people in Raffles. I still don't understand the triangle thing, but it's okay LOL (: I haven't hear you properly play your erhu yet! So one day, I must listen kay! COFORLIFE! :D

Jonathan: Hi, are you from Cat High? HAHAHA that was my most vivid experience with you! 'Cos you really looked like someone from the school's sports class! :O So I was like quite shocked when I saw you for the first day. Haha but I think you're quite a nice guy and keep up with the good art! :D (ps: what's your display picture about? quite familiar leh!)

Aurelia: You're such a nice girl! Always having your camera and taking pictures of the class so much (: I think you're a very friendly girl as well, especially when I was still in a CCA blur, you helped me out in the library (: THANKS AURELIA! :D

Selina: You're ever so lively and friendly! Always giving a smile (: I think you're a very strong girl as well, and play the violin like a goddess (Maurice says you're the Violin Goddess). And also during the past few weeks, you've been reassuring me and comforting me about my decision to change subject. Therefore, I'd like to thank you! (: sometimes, I think you're some sort of angel or something! So friendly and all! (sorry, my childish side coming out ><)

Natasha: I think I should really thank you for those encouraging SMSes you sent me last week. They really made me feel much better and surer of my decisions. And they were like a blanket in a storm - I was stuck in a crazy dilemma, and I felt so scared and all, but you kinda reassured me. Which I will greatly appreciate it. So a BIG THAAAAANK YOU! :D
________________________________

So yeah, that's it guys. Don't blame me if I happen to still be in 6R tomorrow kay (: I don't even know what class I'm going to! Will tell you guys once I know.

Hopefully I can still crash 6R outings and stuff LOL. I won't be so intrusive though lah so don't worry (: thanks guys for everything you've given me the past few weeks! I LOVE YOU GUYS. JIAYOUJIAYOU ♥ 12S06R!!! :D:D:D:D:D

There were so many things I didn't say, but I'd say it here.

Like for example, Mr Gabriel Tan, my CTeacher.
He's like the greatest and best teacher I can get!
He's like so caring and nice to everyone, and you can tell that he SINCERELY cares for the class!

Plus, he knows Ms Wu. LOL!
So, I really really respect Mr Tan.
Now I at least have someone to give something to for Teachers' Day (:

To Poh Jie (who's not in the FB grp): HEY POH JIE! Haha I know we both share many similar sentiments about JC initially, but I guess things can actually change for the better. Like I don't know why, but I feel that my life is improving and getting better. Hope you'll do well and start to like JC as well. Cheers! :D
_______________________________________________

Now, I'm posted to class 12S03S! (:
There's TONY inside hahahahahhaa! :D

And although it's just my second day inside the new class today, I feel quite connected with the people.
Because they're all so nice and willing to talk to me, the new guy.
And plus we had Manhattan Fish Market lunch today at J8! :D

And we have this awesome cool guy called Zhang Jie. LOL!
And Rugaiyah from RCHN is same class as me YAY!
Plus our class is like filled with love scandals omg, life is seriously getting way and way more FUN! :D

I think I'm starting to enjoy JC life now.
At least by a bit? (:
Because I'm surrounded by people who'll accept me (:
________________________________________

No matter what, I'll still miss 12S06R.
And guys, I'll come back and visit you all (:

<3 12S06R forever&always!

Fly The Skies

2011-04-17T18:27:00.006+08:00

HELLOOOOOOO WORLD! :D
I'm back from my exhausting week.
I have some big news so gonna post them here.

Firstly, I'm thinking of changing to BCME!
From PHME to BCME! (:
I got a test tomorrow for both Bio & Chem so I must study after typing all of these.
Wish me good luck! :D

Secondly, Project Work is such an insane subject!
I know, and I thought it'd be DOABLE.
But finding topics is the most difficult part I feel.
GOOD topics I mean.
The topics I found, I realised, have no value in any lessons learned :/

Ahhh... gonna take life one step at a time.
______________________________________

During Physics SPA 2 weeks ago, my tablemates and I felt a bit restless so we went to fold more paper cranes for the Support Japan project!

Paper cranes awaiting takeoff (:

The people who were folding includes Wern Chieh, Huy, Zekiel and me!
I think that even though it's been more than a month since the disaster, hopefully everything can return back to normal and just fine.

I have a friend Teck Lee who went Sendai, Japan and it's nice to see that his friends there are still alive! (:
That's the greatest thing you can ever wish for.

I feel very comforted whenever happy news happen.
Like the Thai girl who got hit by the MRT?
It's so nice she's still smiling!
And reading that the generous public donated so much for her makes it an even more heart-warming news read.

Happy news makes my heart flyyyyyy...! (:
_______________________________________

So yesterday, Saturday, I went to Crescent's for their school funfair (:
I went with Leon, Shaun and Nicole!

At the school, I met Ashley and lots of her friends who went for the birthday party!
Haha and we played a few games, like Haunted House.
It was quite a better Haunted House than the usual, as I could see the design of the place had some thought put into it.
Although it was $8.... but still! It was quite okay (:

After the entire funfair, we made our way to 313@Somerset.
We were going to celebrate my (belated) birthday yay! :D
So at the dinner table, there was Leon, Shaun, Nicole, Ashley, Jia Jin and me!

We ate at this restaurant called Hot Tomatoes and something.
The waiter was very very nice and generous!

SO THEY SURPRISED ME, with a birthday cake!

Hahaha Ashley & Nicole were running "to the toilet" to help me design this cake throughout dinner.
Especially Ashley, who had "diarrhea" several times and wanted to puke? LOL.

Okay lah, it was quite a normal surprise I thought, AND THEN THERE WAS EVEN A BIGGER SURPRISE: a BIRTHDAY VIDEO!

The video (which can be found on FaceBook) was pieced together by Ashley, JJ, Nicole, Yu Fan, Perry and Shaun!
Leon and Yi Long also made a separate one, which I'll see on Monday (:

This was quite surprising lor I tell you!
I never expected it!

It turns out, Ashley was adding all my friends whom she thought I was close to.
And asked them to make a video, with birthday greetings and all that.
And I thought she was trying to dig out information about me!
(Maybe that was also on her agenda list but...)

I was seriously touched okay! (:
Like so nice to make a birthday video!
The last time I had a birthday video was during Sec 2, when Perry made one for me which starred Yu Fan, Kit Chong and Jia Wei.
Which I still have in my phone hahaha!

So the video was so nice!
ASHLEY AND NICOLE SANG FOR ME!
For ~~years~~ months, we've been trying to persuade Ash to sing, but she never.
So this is her DEBUT PERFORMANCE and it's AWESOMELY NICE!!! :D
Hahahaha!

YUFAN ALSO SANG HAHAHAH!
Actually on Thursday, we went to Karaoke LOLLLLLLLLLLL!!!
It was so not planned in our agenda, but we decided to do it anyways (:
Was my first real KTV experience and it was FUN! Haha :D

Shaun pieced together a very nice picture video! :D
Haha the effects were very nice YAY! :D
THANKS SHAUN!

And of course JIA JIN AND PERRY!
Both of them also wished me a happy birthday! (:
So nice right they all!
(PERRY WE MUST MEET UP.)

So really a BIG THANK YOU GUYS! Especially Ash for getting everybody together and piecing the video (:
Even though my birthday was 1 month ago-ish? HAHAHA!
Love you all!!! :D
____________________________________

OMG I SAW THIS IN THE NEWSPAPERS TODAY!
It was on The Straits Times, I think Friday yeah?

Haha I love The Naked And Famous!
They're quite a nice band which play very... dreamy-like songs.
It's like a mix of alternative rock in a very dreamy state.

My favourite song from them is Girls Like You!
And my favourite line from that song is, "Don't you know, people write songs about girls like you?"

It perfectly described how I felt that day (:
_______________________________

OKAY BYE! See you guys next time.

Dancing With The Stars

2011-04-13T01:25:00.004+08:00

Ahhh! I just love dance (:
There are many forms of dance but my favourites are usually hiphop, street and tribal.
LOL I know right... tribal may sound weird but it's pretty cool.

In hip hop dance/breakdance, I think there's this group you have to know: the Jabbawockeez!
Okay I'm not gonna like spell out correctly because there's so many deviations on the net and I'm sleepy and tired.

They're the winners of the America's Best Dance Crew and have been starred in many shows and commercials.
They also appeared in ANTM LOL HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA!!!
And there was Lil Mama with them as well on that episode.

Anyway, back to the topic.
I think that they're really quite a good team and they love doing robotic moves.
Which is pretty cool btw (:

I know in America where the hip hop culture is really really thriving and all, dance battles are pretty serious there.
At least that's what I'm seeing on the media.
Lots of people get injured and dissed at over such stuff! :O

THIS IS ROBOT ROCK.
Yes, OMG it's freaking nice this thing.
Wow. I'd say it's the BEST dance of the entire movie Step Up 3.
Although the last dance was also very spectacular, but the choreography for this was of better quality, in my opinion that is.

Ever since Step Up 2, I've always liked dancing.
Okay, no, I liked dancing before Step Up 2, but it wasn't that strong.
Step Up 2 made me like it even more (:
And that was in the year 2008 :D

I'm a crazy guy, who's fat, and maybe I'm not good at dancing.
But I tell you what, I'm fat, and I CAN DANCE :D

In fact, I'm going to sign up dancing with Yu Fan muahahhahahah!!!
So must wait until everything more or less settled, then we can begin our lessons (:

HOORAY! :D Bye guys!

Hits & Misses

2011-04-07T21:35:00.002+08:00

HELLO EVERYBODY! (:

So far, school life is improving and it's going better.
All along I've been praying to God and hoping it'll go better.
And it did! It's nice to know God ALWAYS answers my prayers.

Oh by the way, speaking of such spiritual stuff, you know I had a deja vu during Red Cross outing?!
I was trying the one-man bike which Yu Xuan rented, and Toh Hong & Jia Yu were guiding me on how to ride it.
Then it all hit me - I'VE SEEN THIS SOMEWHERE BEFORE! :O

I had this dream in November 2010.
And I distinctly remembered that I was dreaming this dream because somehow I felt that it would give me hints to which JC I'd go to.
It was in a park, on the road and there were 2 people guiding me in doing something.
And that's when I experienced it last Saturday.

It was really amazing. I love my deja vus.
Always seem to be getting them one.
I started noticing them since the time when I suddenly "remembered" a scene in McDonalds: one that I've never been there before.
It's so special, so cool! Hahaha :D
(I'm psychic! :P)
_____________________________________________

I miss a lot of things I usually did in secondary school.

I remembered in 2008, I would go on MSN and talk at length with Yu Fan.
We were very close (and I think still are!) and then I remembered this night.
We plugged in our microphones, and started SINGING HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

It was like what, 11pm+++?
And because we kept screwing up the lyrics and poking fun at each other, we laughed so much and had so much fun.
For the entire 2 hours, we like disturbed our family members.
My dad screamed at me at that time for being so noisy.
Hahaha, what the heck (:

Some of our favourite songs would be like Untouched (The Veronicas), Pocketful of Sunshine (Natasha Bedingfield) and... a lot lah.
We sang mostly from Natasha Bedingfield, Nerina Pallot and Avril Lavigne.
Of course, there were mixes and matches throughout the time with different singers and songs.

Ahhh, those were the free old days (:
______________________________________

Today Huy taught me how to fold paper cranes!
All this was done for the support of the Japan earthquake victims.
(Kit Chong, don't kill me! ><)

Huy is a Vietnamese scholar in my class, and he LOVES mangas.
He is now in the Japanese Cultural Club, and this is what the club is doing.
You guys can do it too - free of charge - at the canteen walkway (:

It's fun!
And most importantly, it's all for a greater cause (:
__________________________________________

This Is What Rock N Roll Looks Likes - Porcelain Black (feat. Lil Wayne?)

ANYWAY, I played this song last week.
And just now, my sister told me she liked it LOL!
I replayed the video, and yeah, she's quite awesome.

My sister said she loves how singers show off their angst and attitude in such videos.
Like Jessie J's Do it Like A Dude?
It's fun lah, to see them do such a thing.

Alright, got to go, more updates soon! :D

Euthanasia

2011-04-05T01:13:00.001+08:00

This is so not the right time to fall in love.

My Red Cross Journey

2011-04-03T19:24:00.002+08:00

Yesterday, I went out with the Red Cross Humanitarian Network to East Coast Park! :D
And it was quite fun you know hahaha.
At first, I was like, "What can we do there?"
Yesterday's experience proved that it could be a place of new learning.

So I met up with Toh Hong and Jia Yu at Bishan to go there.
Also later met Ming Hao and Regina on the way.

We thought we were going to be freaking late, but turns out only like 15 minutes?
And the walk was quite fun as well (:

At ECP, we met Yu Xuan and we all went to find the seniors.

At first, we were playing Frisbee Monkey and I kept tio-ing the monkey.
But it was quite fun lah yeah (:

Then after that, we went to CYCLE.
LOL.
Because I don't even know how to cycle!

I last played with the bicycle in 2002, which is the Primary 2 year.
And I failed my trainings okay!
Always fall down one -________-

So with the help of Toh Hong, we both rode on a 2-man bike! :D
And I took the back seat, like obviously right.

IT WAS QUITE FUN! :D
And I think I tired out Toh Hong but then that's because I'm not the front rider.
Whoops :P

I've never seen so much of ECP anyway before, because it's always will be staying at one corner.
And it's actually quite a beautiful place leh!
Like so many nice sceneries! (:
I wanna go back there someday haha.

So the VERDICT: I still don't know how to ride a one-man bike.
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA LOL I KNOW RIGHT.
But still, it's a very fun experience, I LIKE :D
____________________________________________

I think that one of the reasons that has strongly kept me in Raffles is because of this awesome CCA.
I mean, it may not seem like much, but it's actually been quite of like a nice place to be in.
With all the nice people inside as well.
I remember during camp, everybody was like, "Here let me help you."
SO READY TO HELP!
I don't think I'll see that much anywhere.

And the people here are more inclusive.
They like either have superpowers or the EQ is quite high.
Because they know how you feel, they care for you.

I think I found my peoples (:
BTW, I took a photo of that picture because I thought it was cute.

Party Rock Anthem - LMFAO feat. Lauren Bennett & GoonRock

Haha I really like the dance moves in this video.
I think it's pretty cool (:

WAIT, I think I'm digressing.
___________________________________________________

I still got so much homework to do!
Especially History haha although it's only like a few pieces, they take up the most time.
But Economics I'm starting to understand it better.
And for Maths, under the careful guidance of Ms Mok, I think I'm getting better as well.

OH, did I say I have a secret plan? (;

BYES!

Reservations: Back or Forth

2011-04-02T00:04:00.002+08:00

I keep thinking these days, and it's not about anything to do with academics.
It's just about my life in particular, about choices and decisions.

And I'm stuck in a dilemma.
Like caught in this deadlock.
Which is why I titled this blog post as "Reservations".
Because, I seriously don't know what to do, and don't know which way I should go.

I DON'T KNOW OKAY GUYS.
I don't know what I wanna choose! ):

Like the downest point in my life, I think.

Everyone's telling me to stick to my initial decisions.
It's really driving me crazy, I'm going suicidal.

Life sucks.
_________________________________________

Okay, I shall stop ranting for a while.

Single Girls - Laura Jansen

I LIKE HER! (:
She reminds me of Nerina Pallot who has disappeared to nowhere these days.
And this song is so sweet and touching (:
It's a breakup song btw so don't feel depressed!

You see, here I am telling people not to get depressed.
Life is such a bitch.
_______________________________________________

ANYWAY, I've been studiously visiting Xiaxue's and Bongqiuqiu's video blogs HAHAHAHA!
Those 2 are like the funniest people 'kay.
They're real, and they have depth to their character.
Which is why I respect them.

And I saw this video at the clicknetwork.tv website!

IT'S DAMN CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTEEEEEE!!!! :D:D:D:D:D
I was laughing like mad when I watched it.
It's really damn cute I can't believe it!

I WANT A DANCING ANDROID FOR MY BDAY! (:

Haha alright, today is just a short post.
Next time longer!

& I miss all of you man. I miss my life. I miss my best friends forever.

I Promise You That I Won't Cry

2011-03-31T01:06:00.002+08:00

Something happened in school today.
It made me feel so... humiliated and sad.
I don't know how to say about it, but I actually cried.

It has been like so long since I last cried.
Because there has never been really anything to impact me that emotionally for the past few months, even years.

So today was the break of the long record of non-crying.

I won't go into details, because it's really embarrassing and humiliating.
It's something that I can't describe, only relate to.

Not many people even knew I cried today, they just see me with a smiling face.
It's not a facade - frankly, by that time I didn't really feel like crying anymore.
Although the sadness is still in my heart lah...
_________________________________________________

All the above made me think: did I make the right choice?

These months, I've been praying to God, to show me something that I indeed have made the rightest choice.
I know that previously, I had 2 choices: A) or B).

A) was my mother's choice.
She thinks that it'll be better for my future and whatsoever.
And that it's an opportunity that many people want.

B) was, and has been, always been my choice since secondary school.
Whenever people discussed about it, B) was the choice that I'd firmly support.

In the end, I went for A).
Well, honestly, it has been quite a fine trip so far.
I met so many nice people and many of my held stereotypes (influenced by others) were readily broken.

There were even REAL people.
These people care, they love, they do things that show that they really exist. They have character.
One of them is a girl with a letter J, and I'll definitely vote for her.
She's running for Council, and she better be in (:
___________________________________________

BUT THEN I THOUGHT TO MYSELF: do I need this?

I'm basically not a person who aims for high-paying salaries.
I tell you, I have no interest in becoming a lawyer or doctor or whatever.
Don't blame me if I do happen to become one in the future, because anything can happen!

There are only a few careers I really like:
1) Teacher
2) Actor
3) Archaeologist
4) Entertainmer
5) World Explorer (this needs loadsa monehhh...)

So you see... I have no interest in aiming for like 6-figure salary things.
There is no "real life" in what people call "reality".
Only fake things, fake attitudes, and a reality they conjured up themselves.

Now THAT, is quite the paradox.

I read Thaddeus's MSN Personal Message:

What's the point in ever trying to be happy when the very pursuit of happiness is what makes you miserable.

- a thaddybear's personal message

I think he got it from elsewhere, but still! It's a wonderful statement.
I mean, all along many people, even my parents, are running the materialistic life.
But why run for all that, when I'm already happy with God by my side!

I know God is by my side okay, because he has always helped me.
Even now, I feel his presence right here with me.
And to people who LOVE proofs, why do you need proofs when the very proof does not prove it's an evidence?
Simply put, your proof can be a fake.

I read somewhere that "82% of all statistics are made up on the spot".
Get what I mean?

I Won't Cry - Elin Lanto

She's the winner of some talent competition in an European country.
I'm not very sure of her yet...
But she shows she has talent!

I'll try, next time, not to cry anymore.

HEYO WORLD! :D

Welcome to new blogskin!
Haha revamped the tired background which was there for like a year or so?
The structure is still the same, so basically everything should be easy for navigation.

Speaking of navigation, you know I don't really like using those navigation blogs where you must press things to see the Profile, Blog, Links etc.?
I mean, not that they're horrible, just that sometimes people don't know where to press!
Like the buttons aren't obvious.
Which is why, I try not to use such blogskins, although sometimes they're damn nice.
____________________________________________

Hmmm... this week has been quite eventful!
Namely because... IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY!!! :DDD

LOL this reminds me of the Bass Down Low line:
"Earth Day like my birthday... we sip champagne cos we thirsty!"
Which is kinda cool right? Haha (:

So Monday had a birthday celebration with my family! (:

THE CAKE VERY NICE RIGHT!!! :D
It ain't the usual Swensen's thing anymore.
I don't feel like patronising Swensen's birthday cake ever since they stopped sending me birthday cake vouchers >: (
Although i still like their ice cream buffet MUAHAHHAHA!

From my buddies Leon, Shaun, Pei Zheng and Yi Long! :D

From my OG group, bought by GANGYI! :D

From mg OG again, by JUSTIN! :D

And my class celebrated for me again on FRIDAY! :D
We also celebrated Ding's birthday which was also this week as well!

LOVE YA 12S06R! :D

Hooray haha! :D
_____________________________________________

ALRIGHT guys, now I got to go do my homework already.

I got CLASS CAMP from tomorrow to Tuesday, at PULAU UBIN! :D
And I'm told that we can bathe muahahahhaahahahahahahahahahaha!!!

GOODBYE! :D

My Nose Is Perfectly Fine, Thank You

2011-03-17T22:56:00.002+08:00

Hmmm, you know these days I've always been hearing about people going for nose jobs and other forms of plastic surgery.
And it made me think... does my nose have any problem as well?

Well, I think it's quite okay lor, like what you want me to do!
But some people have such surgical operations because they affect their health.
Such a reason is an okay excuse.

But the question boils down to this: do you support plastic surgery?

In the mainstream media, there are many actors/singers who go for plastic surgery to look younger.
They think that such a way, they'll maintain a youthful glow to their appearance and so maintain or win more fans, right?
However, many fans will like criticise them for being fake and superficial if they go for such stuff.

Honestly, I don't really have a stand in this issue at all.
Unlike how English or GP teaches us to take a stand.

I think I just typed crap for this post but... whoops! :D
____________________________________________

Anyway I just came back from CMC Camp! :D
Haha it's so fun to go back to Catholic High! All my juniors and friends! :D

So Teck Lee, Chiu Yang and Aden came back too.
We had loads of sharing sessions and Teck Lee trying to scare us all in the night with horror stories.

Also, it's also quite satisfying to talk to your juniors again!
Yeah... really miss CMC haha! (:

Breaking Rules In Famous Schools

2011-03-10T21:46:00.003+08:00

Yay! I like my this blog title! :D
Everyday I'm like thinking of nice blog title names okay (:
Cos it's always awesome!

Anyway, today I'm going to talk about BREAKING RULES.
Like, usually those words will never be associated with me.
I mean, who'd expect the guy with the squeaky-clean record to do anything bad?

RIGHT?

Well, I don't know.

Ever since Secondary 4, I knew that my rebellious side was going to explode and start manifesting.
Big words, ignore them. I can't think of anything to make my sentences shorter.
Anyway, so yeah, I started thinking of ways to like, rebel.

Why would I wanna rebel in the first place?

Simply put, I've never really tried to break school rules.
I mean, it's not fun getting scolded by teachers. It's not in my nature to do that as well.
But then I was like, screw it, it's the last year of my secondary school life.
Why not have the fun?

So that's when I started to do really bad things.
And rebelling.
And started acting like a rebel.
I only came off as amateur, trust me.

I won't post about what things I did because frankly, even I don't remember them.
__________________________________________________

Then here comes JC life, and the rebellious side of me is still pretty stuck on to me.
I'm no more that good, kind-natured guy whom you had probably met in Sec 1 or 2.
I'm more like, you wanna fight, you got it kind.
Don't mess with me >: )
(chances are, i'll lose, but what the hell)

I mean, I don't know why, I find rebelling a very THRILLING thing to do.
It makes you feel... COOL. LOL. I can't believe I said that.
So politically incorrect but STILL...

But here's another way of interpreting the title of my blog:
What if, it's not about school rules I'm breaking...
But rather, it's the rules I've self-imposed on myself, my moral value rules, those kinda things...

I am clearly aware that I've not been myself lately.
I don't know why, maybe it's because I'm trying to "stand out" to quickly find a good friend I can rely on.
I mean, sitting there quiet ain't gonna make you be noticed, dig me?
(I can't believe I just said that... I TOLD YOU SO.)

You see, I'm not myself! :/
Really, and it's really a downer.
People usually praised me for being a nice and good person.
But now... being a rebel... you get none of that.
Maybe attention... for like 15 seconds... and you feel bad in the end anyway.

But what I want is to be a positive-influencing person, right?
I wanna help people out and achieve respect/friendship the old-fashioned way.
No slipshod methods, no flimsy drugs.
Just be me, really me.

And when I'm myself, I somehow feel God's closer to me too! :D
____________________________________________________

Okay, there was a reason why I wanted to type this post by the way.
It crossed my mind during the first time I (almost) got scolding.

It was like a Thursday morning, happened LAST WEEK.
Then as everyone was rushing to the parade square (wherever you call it) for morning assembly, I was still at the canteen.

Why?

Because I found an orange file which belonged to someone and I didn't know what to do with it.
I was like, erm, should I bring this to the SAC (the lost & found centre)?
Or should I try to find the guy personally?
Because his class was written on the file.

So I decided to take my chances and try to find his class.

Guess what.
I ran up the stairs to reach the parade square... BAM.

I got caught.
I was counted as LATE.
Listen, I'm NEVER late.
Period.
Except for the last time I made people wait for 30 minutes.

So the teacher over there asked me to stand at the side and sing the national anthem.
And I was like thinking, "SHIT."
Yeah, like really big pieces of it.

There were like 100 excuses running across my brain, while I was deliberating which was the best to use.
Should I tell them I just came out from the toilet due to diarrhoea?
Should I tell them I lost my way?
Should I tell them I accidentally hit myself with the glass doors of Hodge Lodge (it can get really dark in the morning at times anyway)?

Or should I just tell the truth?
I settled for the truth... and after the morning assembly... we were let go.
Just like that.
Let go.

Well, that's that.
That's it.

But the thinking of 100 excuses was kinda funny.
First time I actually used my brain (including sleepy lectures).

As all happy endings go, the person got his file back (with the help of Mr Tan).
I escaped the white slip scare (no, it ain't the Ku Klax Klan).

And no, I didn't even dream about using the accidentally-kicking-the-school-cat-hiding-under-the-table excuse.
_____________________________________________________

My class just came back from the Music From The Heart concert!
Which was freaking cool, because Jiang Jun, Selina, John, Maurice and Jian Han ALL performed DAMN NICELY!
Makes you wanna be a musician maaan! :D
And they totally earned my respect okay.

I was a music dropout at like, primary 4?
I stopped at Grade 4/5 too.
Plus, anytime I failed a piano exam, I'll just advance to the next grade!
Piano was really not my forte then.
Nor is it now.

BUT now, I really feel like learning an instrument to play with!
Something melodious yet cool, you know?
There are so many instruments out there!
I really like electric piano, so uber cool man.
Their sync music is very very niceee (:
_______________________________________________

Alright, I gotta go.
Next time, I'll add in some pictures to make this blog NICER!

AND I'LL CHANGE BLOGSKIN. Promise! :D

I Love College

2011-03-02T01:04:00.004+08:00

Okay, the title is a lie. For now.
As in, I don't really feel that I love college life now yeah.
Like, sucks to me, you know.
Asher Roth better be having a better life anyway.

Firstly, SORRY for not updating my blog!
It's been very tiring days and I just feel so lazy to come here and write any posts.
Plus, I realised I've been very conservative in my blog posts ever since 2009.
Which makes my blog ULTRA BORING (yes, I know).

So, to kick start a new year (shouldn't this be done 2 months ago?!), I shall introduce a bit on my new life!
----------------------------------

I'm currently studying now in Raffles Institution.
People still call it RJC, I prefer calling it that way as well lah.
I mean, it really differentiates from the secondary side right?

My OG name was BB05 Double Cheeseburger! :D
It's an awesome Orientation Group name I feel!
Although I thought, okay... funny name... initially.
But realised every group has to start with a 'D' for this year's Orientation Theme is called D'elchanto!
Which means, "strength from within" in Portuguese, if I'm not wrong.

Then now, I'm in class 12S06R.
My subject combination is like: Physics, History, Maths, Economics.
Most people in my class take Chemistry and Music too.
There's a few ELL, Art, CLL people in my class.
Physics and Maths are common for all classmates (:

But still! I feel that I'm closer to my OG!
The day at Sentosa: Take 5!
THAT WAS MY BEST RI EXPERIENCE MAAAN.
Because, BB05 simply rocks! :D

I won't lie and tell you I'm having a great time in RI.
Honestly, I feel rather LONELY here okay!
Like all my secondary school friends went to other JCs!
Then the friends I have in RI, it's always I don't get to see them often!

And apparently, I feel like a nobody in my class, so oh well.

I feel closest to a few classmates, namely Wern Chieh and Shao Yang.

Wern Chieh is from Xinmin Sec, and we both talked A LOT about missing our previous school environment which was much cosier and comfortable.
Maybe it's 4 years, which is why we feel better there, but still!
And she said she wanna transfer! So I guess I'll feel much lonelier.

Shao Yang is from RI Sec, but then he's in Choir, and he has an AWESOME Bass voice.
He's just fantastic okay, and we talk quite much about Choir songs (:

Oh, did I mention my class is full of music prodigies?

We have Selina, the Violin Goddess. I haven't heard her play yet but stories say, she's like the most awesomest thing you've ever heard yet!

We have John, the Piano God! Actually, I haven't heard him playing too! LOL. But he's also damn good in Athletics, like Ultimate Frisbee haha!

We have Maurice, who I feel is some master in theory! I've seen his theory work before, and trust me, it's mind-blowing. Plus, I've heard that he can play the violin quite good, although I only heard like 10 seconds of it during one of the lessons in GP!

We also have Jiang Jun, from Chung Cheng High. He is like the musician jack of all trades! He can play like FIVE, and I mean FIVE, music instruments! He's from Chinese Orchestra, and he's like sought after by various JCs you know!

We have Gang Yi, who plays the Er Hu. He's like ultra-zai CO player, but then I think he wanna do soccer instead! Haha, still, he plays damn good, I've heard him play during GP as well! :D Oh, and he's my BB05 mate too (:

We also have Wei Herr and Jian Han! But then, I'M SO SORRY! I never hear you guys play before. But apparently, I've heard that they're also terrific players! :O And if my memory still serves, they're in either CO or Chamber too! :D

Then we have Benedict, who can sing very well (other than Shao Yang)! OMG I never tell him that though, so embarrassing! But really, when I heard him sing, it's like super super cool man. Like those jazz bands in Hard Rock Cafe that kinda good, you get what I mean?

Me, on the other hand, has officially lost my voice. To sing. I feel disoriented. Like don't know what to do liao. Because all along, I've been living for singing man.

Okay, sorry if I missed out anybody else, although not like they'll read my blog anyway.
Nobody reads my blog these days anyway hahahhaha! :P
_____________________________________________

Okay, enough about my class yeah (I HAVEN'T EVEN TOUCHED ON THE ART PRODIGIES).

For CCAs, it was quite a terrible experience.

I signed up for like Street Dance, Modern Dance, Interact and History & Current Affairs Society (HISSOC for short).
But I all FAILED the interviews, except for HISSOC.
I wanted to take up Street Dance one you know, but I can't dance man.

However, I too joined RED CROSS HUMANITARIAN NETWORK!
And we get to do First Aid! Woohoo!
(My highest qualification is like... bandage-taping? :x)
And we have camp this Friday-Saturday.

And I tell you ah, oh my god, I really felt damn troubled when no CCA wanted me that time!
Thank God I learnt about RCHN afterwards and went for their interview.

And please ah, I never had any "backup CCAs".
I don't believe in that okay.
Like, why can't I try many interviews ne? Right?
So when during CCA interviews/trials people started using that word, I just think that they're paranoid on getting the uninterested-but-taking-your-CCA-as-backup members, which may be quite of like diminishing the respect of the CCA-ish kinda thing, so yeah can understand lah.
__________________________________________

I just realised I never do my Project Work while blogging.
Okay die tomorrow liao. I really cannot tahan.
Get scolding lor. I sian diao liao.

Oh yeah. I MISS SPEAKING IN CHINESE!!!
So yeah, got my best buddy Wern Chieh to speak it with me (:
And Shao Yang too!
And Kai Wen too!
MUAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAA!!!

Alrights, signing off (:

The Happyface Company "Legacy"

2011-02-05T12:47:00.002+08:00

Hello world!

Nowdays, I usually rely on FaceBook to tell my story to the world.
Wait what?
What I meant was, FaceBook has become my unfilled content of Blogger.

Never mind, I don't even know what that meant.
_________________________________________

ANYWAY, HELLO WORLD! :D

Okay I know it has been quite a while since I last blogged.
And I have a few requests to continue blogging.

SO HERE I AM! :D

This blog is not dead okay.
Happyface Company will never die!!!

Speaking of Happyface Company dying, here's a piece of great news:

I'M CONTINUING HAPPYFACE COMPANY! :D

For those who don't know what the hell Happyface Company is about, here's a quick brief summary:

Who We Are

We are the masters of the universe! No, that's what I always wanted to say.
But Happyface Company was started by Gavin, Bryan, Jun Da and me during primary school.
Then after that we had a few more people join us (:

We are all comic drawers! Or comic readers alike!
Or just come join lah, no harm done.

We all had nicknames and special names we'd use too!
Super cool, eh?

OKAY I GOTTA GO FOR A WHILE. Will edit this post when I come back home!

New Year 2011!

2011-01-10T10:54:00.003+08:00

Haha I know it's freaking late but HAPPY NEW YEAR! :D

These few days didn't blog because of the following few reasons:
1) no time
2) didn't even feel like going online!
3) high fever which took over 4 days of my life.

There! Accept my humble apologies ah! (:
_____________________________________

Anyway, I think it's time for a change in blogSKIN! (:
So long haven't change already.

Actually, I prefer having BIGGER fonts.
So can see better right?
I know how to edit one but then it'd be very weird compared to the title fonts and etc.
But I'll try to do everything by this week, okay? (:
_____________________________________

On the other hand, the O LEVEL RESULTS are TODAY!!!
Yeah, I'm currently at home lazing about ):
Cos I'm very bored....

I'm quite scared actually LOL.
And news are already spreading when the results aren't supposed to be out yet!
Okay lah, not NEWS. More like, RUMOURS.
But rumours are the most reliable sources when you have no news to count on! :D
_____________________________________

I shall go YouTube a while, then maybe read a book, and go to school (:

BUT BEFORE I GO, here's an awesome song by Jessie J (I HATE DO IT LIKE A DUDE sorry :p):

Who You Are - Jessie J

This song really inspires me (:

2010-12-29T00:05:00.002+08:00

You know these days I always have dreams that I'm doing my Geography O Level Paper or something and wake up thinking like, "Shit... is the paper today?!"
And then I realise that it's the holidays.
And that school was quite over in November.

):

Haha anyways, I ALSO HAVE DREAMS I FAIL MY O LEVEL HIGHER CHINESE PAPER.
I tell you ah, my dreams are quite powerful one cos most of them come true!!!
This is like so stupid lor if I fail my Higher Chinese! ):
I hope I don't fail leh...

But I saw a 40 marks on my HCL result slip (although in O Lvls they aren't going to show any marks).

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Sad maaannnnnnnnnnnn...

Royal Carribean Cruise

2010-12-27T14:01:00.027+08:00

I'm finally going to post about the cruise trip I had (:
Sorry it's kinda late I know as I've been very busy.
And there are not many photos I've taken so yeah :/
Most of the pictures are with my sister anyway.

So I went on the Royal Carribean Cruise trip from 13 Dec to 17 Dec, a Monday to Friday.
Basically, we went to Harbourfront on Monday morning to board the ship (:

DAY 1

I remembered SMS-ing and calling Martin on that day 'cos he had taken the ship before so he could tell me the to-dos and not-to-dos.
LOL damn coincidence can I was just in the ship when he told me he was at VivoCity and that he saw Ms Hua and Mrs Yap there too.

Anyway, I spent the first few hours exploring the ship with my sister.

There was this room, I think it was called... actually I forgotten the name of the room.
But anyway, this was where they would have live band performances (acoustic types) and also movie screenings.
Didn't go for any of the movie screenings BLEAH! having too much fun around.

Then we had a lifeboat evacuation drill.
I tell you ah, there were a few weird teenagers fooling around and I think they are 13 years old of something like that.
DAMN IRRITATING CAN.
They were pushing each other around, disturbing the people, making stupid noises to disturb the staff and banging the entire crowd.

And I found out they were in the same lifeboat as me.
FML can I tell you, I'd rather jump down into the sea than go into the same lifeboat with them if the ship sank.
Or rather, I'd do everyone a favour and push them off-boat :D

After the evacuation drill, I continued exploring the place.
Damn bored I tell you, I had no one to play with me! ):
Usually my brothers would be there and make trips damn fun (I will never tell them this; if they ask me I'd deny it!).
But they had army or school so yeah :/
My sister went with my mother anyway.

BUT.... dinner came! :D

Okay apparently this was the only food I took a picture of.
It was dessert! YAY! So I ordered the fudge brownie whatever.
And being thick-skinned as always, I asked for ice cream on top. :D

DAMN CREATIVE RIGHT, YEAH I KNOW!!! :D:D:D::D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
Okay lah, enough of me zi-kuaing/self-praising.

So I walked ALONE on the ship and went to sleep at around 12PM.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

DAY 2

Today we were going to Port Kelang in Malaysia! (:
We arrived there and then took a bus to the Petronas Tower area there.

On the way visited a few landscapes:

Yeah very nice right!
I dunno why but these days I like admiring things like these.
In the past I would be bored with them anyway.
But I guess it's because I always keep a lookout for symbols or other fun facts.

Anyway, the above photo is my crazy camera capture one.
Don't know why like that LOL!

Yeah and still have this statue (:

So the bus later took us to Petronas Towers where we would do our shopping too :)

AND THEY HAD A KINOKUNIYA THERE.
Where the books were like sooooooooooooooooo cheap!!!
But I no money ):
So didn't buy anything haha!

Okay so we went back to our cruise where I saw something on my bed:

A towel dog! :D
It was so cute hahahahahahha!!!

And then I was like thinking, oh my god did some paedophile enter my room and did this???!?!
But no lah, I found out other rooms also got (:
Some special entertainment service by the room service people! (:

Then I got really bored and I felt so lonely I talked to my dog!
I named it Bobby LOL don't know why also.

Anyway, I had always wanted a puppy!
But my mother say no one would care for it.
And what that it's very expensive and that our house have no space - only people living in giant bungalows can have a dog.

NO LOR, i mean so many of my friends who live in HDB flats can also have a dog.
Sometimes I feel so wanting a dog that I dream of volunteering at SPCA LOL!!!
Okay sorry ah, I like to dream one.

The cruise had free flow of pizzas and fries!
And also hotdogs and burgers but those I never touch.

HAHA being Singaporeans, you'd expect the free food to finish.
But nahhhh, the queue was not that long anyway.
Sometimes there wasn't even a queue!

Maybe it's because we had many different people of different countries in the ship too.

Oh - and it was this night that I started making friends with other people!
They had this teenager hangout place called the Optix yeah, where teenagers can meet and play with one another.

I met this guy called Wei Khan, who taught me how to play Bridge and Texas Hold 'Em.
Quite fun yeah haha!
The Choir always play Bridge but I never learn one hahaha.
Should have learnt earlier because it's damn funnnn!!!

Although I lose a lot.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Day 3

We went to Phuket, Thailand! :DDD

It was my first time going to Thailand and I tell you I really love the place hahahahaha!!!
So super nice lor that place! :D
I shall come here next time again!

Here are some photos I took of Thailand while in the cruise:

So we went on land and took a tour bus (:
We were heading to this Buddhist temple in a cave or something like that.
I remembered something about being a Golden Cave or Golden Temple haha sorry ah I got short term memory!

But here's Phuket for the streets:

And here's the temple where I also got a live-on experience with limestones.

LIMESTONE!!! :D I think.

After the temple, we had a water ride! :D
Sorry ah I very tired already so see the photos can already.

And then we also passed by the famous James Bond Island! (:

Yeah, so after the water taxi ride we ate at this little seaside restaurant and board the cruise.
Sad no shopping cos got TRAFFIC JAM.

Now, here a little riddle:

Question: How do you solve a traffic jam?
Answer: With PEANUT BUTTER of course!

No one said it was going to be funny anyway.
----------------------------------------------------------------

Day 4

So this was the entire day spent on the cruise while the ship was on its way back to Singapore.
Naturally, I spent my time with the other teenagers because there was really nothing much to do yeah.

So we had much time with eating, playing cards and even DANCING?!?!?
Apparently, there was a clubbing place at the Centrium, where under-18s could enter I think.
Haha as it was the last day, and with the majority of the dancing people coming from the teenagers, they shifted the clubbing scene to the Optix.

LOL!!!
Everyone just stood and stared. Never really dance.
Only the young adults partied haha!

But anyway, on this day, we went to play this game called the Autograph Hunt.
We had to scour the entire cruise ship for signatures from the multi-nationality staff.
Haha I was in the same group as Pauline, Michael and his sister Stephanie.

In the end our group won I think, so we had a fridge magnet and a carribina or however you spell it.

Yay right haha!
It's now hanging on my bag (:

In the night, the few of us hung out very late into the night on the cruise.
Just walked around, talked, and even played this music naming game on Zhicong's phone.

Played until 4am and then we went back to sleep...
--------------------------------------------------------------

Day 5

This day wasn't much, we reached Singapore already and had to alight the ship.
Yeah, so had breakfast and then went back home.
Nothing much HAHAHA! :D
---------------------------------------------------------------

Okay, so yeah that concludes my Royal Carribean Cruise trip (:
Quite fun lah, but BRING ALONG YOUR FUN PEOPLE or else you'd die of boredom like me during the first parts of the trip.
Of course, you can also make friends with other teenagers/adults lah (:

I made a few friends with even European and Singaporean young adults but never keep contact.
_____________________________________________

So I know it's kinda late and I got to go, but have a Merry...

... upside-down Christmas?!!?!

Have fun! (:

_______________________________________________

Wells, anyway here are some songs I like currently! :D

Hey Sexy Lady - iSquare

Haha this song is quite nice (:
I like the dance choreography in the video as well.
Wished the girl sang more because I like her voice LOL although most of it is autotuned.
Sorry lah, I like what some would call 'plastic'.

But you should listen to the Skrillex remix of this song.
Skrillex is this guy who loves to remix songs and I tell you, people LOVE his remixes.
He turns them into some heavy electronic song which I have read comments which include "sex to my ears" and "raped the song".

Well, listen to both versions! :D

Rhythm Of Love - Plain White T's

This song is just ultra cute :DDDDDDD to the maxxxxx!
I don't know what else to say actually HAHAHAH.

It's just this relaxing, happy, cute song lor! :P
Haha (seriously I hated 1,2,3,4 OMG DON'T TELL ANYBODY).
The only other relaxing song I can actually think of is Say It Again by Marie Digby.
Other than that, this is the currently cool song yeah!

Beauty In The World - Macy Gray

First heard this song on the last episode of Ugly Betty's season 4.
Then I heard it in Malaysia radio so I got interested in it lor.
Quite a nice song (:
I like happy songs like this!
_____________________________________________

Anyway, these days I've been thinking about friends.
Like in retrospect of making friends with all types of people.

I have many great friends! :D
Those that will talk to me (even when I'm boring them), those that will play with me, those that will laugh WITH me (not AT me or I'll kill them) and those that will treat me to so many things!

~~FOREVER INDEBTED TO YA GUYS! :D~~

But then I also think of friends who have used me and I just feel so angry about that.
Like they make you their friend only to exploit you for meaningless purposes.
Like to expand their group, alpha-male tendencies, selfish popularity.
Social ladder much?
Sometimes, they even say that you do such things when it's their doing lor!

I should've said no. I should've known better. I was just too gullible.
Bahhh, life has such people :/

BUT THEN, I realised something.
Something that I have always not before.

You see, whenever I meet with friendship problems, I brood about them so much.
But now, I realise that I'm better off without these people.
In fact, I CAN LIVE MY LIFE WITHOUT THESE PEOPLE!!! :DDDDDDD

Ten thousand points for XY! (:

I mean, I thought my holidays were going to be screwed with them screwing it up.
Look now, I'm happy without them! I'm alive and kickin'!
Of course, I couldn't have done this without a few of my greatestest friends! XD

REALLY ~~FOREVER~~ INDEBTED!

Well, I just have a last message for them:

Fuck You! - Cee Lo Green

Rights then bye! (:

Only The Blind See

2010-12-18T01:39:00.001+08:00

I'MMMMMM BAAAAAAAAAAACK!!!!!!!!

I was away on holidays overseas from Monday to Friday so yeah haha :)
I shan't talk about the trip YET, because I'm very tired.
I'll do it another day?

Haha anyway I just wanted to say that suddenly I realised so many things, learnt so much from mistakes/adventures, so it's kinda cool yeah.
Like on things on friendship and such things.
And trusting people as well, yeah.

Okay, this is just a short post.
CYA SOON! :D

(I NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT!)

Dog Days Are Over

2010-12-11T23:41:00.005+08:00

Ahhh days cannot be spent much better with friends :D
These days I've been spending days with friends more often than staying at home and killing myself with boredom.

On Tuesday, I went swimming with Yu Fan haha!
It was at Yio Chu Kang swimming complex and it was my first time there (:
It's quite big yeah and quite nice lah.
But ever since that day, my fingers like so wrinkly I don't know why also! :O
-_________-

After that, we watched Rapunzel: A Tangled Tale.
Okay lah, quite nice the movie.
I liked how the scripwriters changed the storyline a bit kinda thing compared to the storybook tale.

USUALLY, I'd provide a better analysis than that, but today I'm kinda tired :/
So yeah. Hehe.

__________________________________________

On Thursday we had STEAMBOAT! :DDD
Honestly, it's my first steamboat with friends and also the first time I'm doing it without parents around.

Martin and Yu Fan bought the raw materials and prepared them.
They went to the WET MARKET! :O

Even without the stench of the raw food which some may find revolting, I don't even know how to buy raw materials!
Like how to choose them kinda thing yeah.
A few tricks I know is that the fish must look at the eyes and gills, while fruits must smell and check for any holes and mould (and sometimes you can secretly peel the skin and test the flesh).

Perry and I, on the other hand, went to Thomson Plaza to buy potato chips and orange juice -__________-

You know right, I was alone at Thomson Plaza at first, waiting for Perry to come.
And I was with the steamboat machine, which was fucking heavy.
Thank God I had a trolley. Many people staring anyway.

Then while waiting for Perry at Four Leaves, I decided to step in to Popular.
GUESS WHAT.

The entrance sensors (the kind that beeps when they detect you stealing their stuff) started BEEPING when my steamboat machine went past them! :O
OH MY FREAKING GOODNESS I TELL YOU. The whole lotta people started STARING at me.

Seriously, who bring things they've stolen back into the store?
(erm, i wasn't even trying to return stolen goods)

Damn embarrassing lah. But oh wells.

Then, when Perry was arriving, I met Joel Tan who was at Thomson Plaza also.
LOL, I think he might be one of the people who were staring at me because I saw him putting a Popular plastic bag into his bag! :P

Reaching Yu Fan's house, we started mahjonging and steamboating yeah :)
HAHA it was damn fun okay and it's like the first time we four came together again to do fun stuff.
I was happy in their company, a feeling I haven't felt much of recently.
I mean there wasn't all that weird feelings or silent dissent between us so yeah (:

Then we watched Sorcerer's Apprentice and everyone fell asleep :P

After that, we steamboated the remainder of the food and then it was night time!
We walked Martin out to the bus stop, then the three of us just walked around and talked.

SO MUCH FUN! Haha see many parts of Singapore I've never seen before actually.

Then we returned back and fell asleep. I was damn tired I remember.
_________________________________________

That Friday, we woke up and went home lor.

At home, I was so bored so I decided to go JOGGING! :D
Jogging has been a word long disassociated with me because I really hated doing that.
In fact, I hated almost ever exercise.
I'm fat, weak, slow, so sports isn't really my kinda thing (except swimming!).

100 points for me to get my ass up from the sofa and into running mode.

So as MacRitchie Reservoir is near my house, I just jogged there lah.
LOTS OF THINGS HAPPENED, let's narrate.

So I reached MacRitchie Reservoir and first thing which greeted my sight was a renovated place.
It's still in renovation but much has changed about the garden.

Firstly, there were many shelters at the carpark area.
There's even a cafe restaurant called MUSHROOMS which opened there.

Disclaimer: SORRY AH, I never bring phone so no camera or photos for you guys!

Anyway, I ran up the hill and saw the monkeys/chimpanzees/primates (for easy reference, I shall use monkeys in this post) RAIDING some teenagers' bags!

LOL IT WAS DAMN FUNNY I TELL YOU.

I was at first like, "HUH?!"
Then I started standing there and laughing at the unfortunate teenagers.

The next time somebody tells you to leave your belongings there because "no one will steal one lah", think again.
The monkeys cleverly unzipped one of the bags, took out all the clothes and shook the bag heavily.
It even started to take out this book and started 'reading' it.

I just stood there, xie shou pang guan, meaning that I watched the monkeys doing their mischief without helping at all xD

The teenagers soon returned and they were like WTFFFF kinda thing.
They saw me like not helping and instead staring at the monkeys so I tiptoed and ran away LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!

Sorry ah, I scared of monkeys.

Then, as I found out the monkeys were quite interesting to watch, I started looking at them going about their life.
Kinda like studying them lah :D
(maybe I can be a zoologist!)
Also I was scared of the monkeys blocking the path actually hahahahahaha!

Then, the unexpected thing happened.

THE MONKEYS STARTED HAVING SEXXXXX!!!!!!!!!

I was like WTF times infinity because I've never seen other animals going at it before.

The female monkey, which stood on the ground on all fours, would raise her tail, then the male monkey would jump and perch itself at the butt of the female monkey.
Then, it started humping.

I was like OMG-ing! lah.

Apparently, the male monkey is like some kind of king I guess.
Because after doing a female, it would CHANGE PARTNERS and go to another female! :OOO
I don't know, but I'm guessing it owns a few females kinda thing.
Maybe monkeys practice polygamy. I don't know.
(although the nerd me has learnt that species have to breed with multiple partners in order to expand their population to be able to thrive and survive, so maybe that's what it was doing)

Monkeys are also violent creatures too.
Soon after the male monkey spotted me staring at him, he started FOLLOWING ME.
WTF I quickly ran away lah what you expect?
Sorry hor, I'm not those gung-ho people who would chiong and fight with 3897025670752 monkeys. I might be fined for hurting animals anyway.

The monkey stopped following me, but then ran off at a different path.
It headed towards this family sitting under a tree.
The monkey climbed up the tree and started THROWING BRANCHES at them!
The branches were HUGE okay they were not tiny twigs.

Thankfully, the family made it off safely (:

I felt tired so I decided to jog back home.
On the way home, something else happened!

There was this SMRT cab which bumped into a silver car! (sorry, don't know what brand)
Being the kaypoh Singaporean, I go and see lor :D

The damage wasn't that great lah, but it made an ugly dent at the wheels area.
It really was nothing, so I decided to walk away.

And then I realised something.

I FORGOT TO NOTE DOWN THE CAR PLATE NUMBERSSSSS!!!
Eeyer no more 4D to bet on already lah! :P

So wasted lor! Could have won some pocket money.
___________________________________________

Today is Saturday and I went out with Brian Foo! (:

We watched Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows Part One.
It's my first time watching it (yes, i'm slow) and Brian's second.

Haha quite okaaaay lah, although many people like say it's boring.
There was no favourite part of mine so bleah :/
Actually come to think of it, I think my favourite part was when Hermoine, Ron and Harry teleported (i forgot the actual word for it) to some area and got almost hit by the bus.

It was also in the trailer so bleah again lah :/

Oh wait, actually I think the Ministry of Magic scene was the best of the movie methinks.

HAHA then after the movie, we went to the 'plaza area' of VivoCity!
They were selling chocolates at a cheaper price!
HAHAHAHAHA I bought the two chocolate bars thing for $10!
Where it would have cost one for $11.80!
(on a sidenote, after eating the chocolate, it didn't really taste that nice... but still, an acceptable bargain)

Okay went home after dinner :)

Dog Days Are Over - Florence + The Machines

I LIKE THIS SONG!!!

Haha okay honestly, I only learnt of this song from Glee which when if you mention of them on YouTube videos of the original singers, people will definitely lambast you.

The song is so nice, I don't know, when I first heard it, it sounded like some WORLD WAR 2 IS OVER REJOICE song kinda thing.
Something like how the sailors and citizen public were dancing and kissing in the New York square (forgot the painting's name).

And after listening to their other songs, it's quite nice! Yeah (:

Dust On The Ground - Bombay Bicycle Club

Okay, I needed time before I started liking the singer's voice.
Wasn't really used to his accent okay.

But I really like this song after listening for a while!
The video is absolutely perfect!!! Like the interpretation and that kinda thing!
HAHAHAHA :D

Okay gotta go so bye! (:

The Holidays

2010-11-30T13:34:00.003+08:00

Well... so far there are a few who have shared their views on NOT WORKING during the holidays (:
I mean, in my opinion, it's only like 2 months of freedom in our lives!
Plus, there's a whole lotta working years right ahead of us!
So nahhh, shan't look for work.

ON THE OTHER HAND, I'm bored to death -.-|||
Staying at home just gets so boring you'll feel like dying.
Of course, I do get a healthy dose of hanging out with my friends.
But I'm getting fatter from eating out too much...

Okay I'm not here to blabber insensibly about my bored life.
Because I'm here to rant out my ANGER! :D

I have like stupid people all trying to do stupid stuff whizzing about in my life.
Kinda reminds me of a shaken coke in a bottle. Mentos anyone?

I HATE THEM! >:(

On one hand, I have to learn how not to hate, because I wanna go to heaven alright!
On the other hand, these people deserve to be PUNISHHHHHHHHHED!

Control yourself there!

HEAVEN
Speaking of going to heaven, I realise it's a concept which not many have been thinking of while they're living in their lives.
I mean, everything these days are about money money money or having tonnes of fun doing whoknowswhat and maybe venting out anger by slashing one another.

You know, there are so many times that we've sinned when we don't even know that we're doing it!
Simple things like LYING or CURSING are little steps downwards!
Okay, maybe that's just what somebody told me but I shall mention no names!

ANYWAY, don't we ALL want to go to HEAVEN?!
I mean, I'm not going to spend about 80 years of Earth life sinning about only to spend 34750306587904353264589327594 infinity years being tortured to death in HELL!

But to All The Sinners, there's always the rule of old magic, in a sort of way.

REPENTENCE! (omg i sound like those crazy preachers jumping onto the hood of cars and shouting hallelujah all day)

Oh and I read that even if you didn't believe in God, sin throughout your entire life, BUT at the last second, you regret and repent, and also believe in God, you'll still make it to HEAVEN!
They don't say God or Jesus is all-forgiving and Great for no reason okay!
Even TRYING to repent (maybe even without success?) brings you closer to Heaven! (lights flashing out and then you hear angels singing "ahhhhhhh" like how they do it in the start of The Simpsons)

Karma
For those people who believe in reincarnation, there's always room to do good things!
So you can be born into a better life next time!
There are some people who look beautiful/handsome, enjoy the riches in their lives, seem to be so damn lucky, but then they commit crimes!

Yet, one wonders how they still manage to live on such good lives.
I have a friend who told me that they're living on good karma previously accumulated in their previous lives.

So, well, before they run out of it, they better start doing good deeds!

The Time (Dirty Bit) - Black Eyed Peas

I kinda like this song!
It's quite funky and futuristic-like kinda thing!
All this synthetic-electropop music!

Seriously though, I thought they'd go back to their old song ways kinda thing ):
Although I still like some of their new songs, but I really miss their amazing songs like Where Is The Love and Don't Lie and 'ya know (:
______________________________________________

Okay, next post, I shall discuss more about the Mystery of the Crystal Skulls.
Heheh I'm like those people who are so free to research on this! :D

BYE!

MIA: Music

2010-11-19T10:24:00.002+08:00

YO PEOPLE!
It's been so long since I talked about music haha!

Okay I shan't talk about the Grad Night first since my phone is recharging anyway.

LET'S DO SOME MUSIC BABY! :D

Na Na Na - My Chemical Romance

This is one of their newest singles out there and the video is HILARIOUS!
In fact, if you play the game Fallout (I only watched my brother playing versions 3 & 4), you'd find the settings strikingly similar.

I've heard My Chemical Romance for a few years and they usually have the emo punk rock tune, perhaps?
Like Helena, Welcome To The Black Parade, Famous Last Words, I Don't Love You, these are the ones more familiar to me.
They too have funny ones like Teenagers.

Na Na Na falls under the funny category in my opinion, as well, it's really full of patriotic screams of NA NA NA!!! throughout the video.
The story is also equally funny, with the settings in a desert-like area. A wasteland, you may say, which is why I say it's like the game Fallout.

Overall, I really like this song! If they continue to produce such great songs like this I'll buy their new album (:

Higher - The Saturdays feat. Flo Rida

There's an official version without Flo Rida, as the Flo Rida version is the remix.

Anyway this song is quite great haha!
Although the critics keep saying Missing You is worse, I feel that it's better leh!
Haha (:

I just hope they can stop using auto-tune, because I know they can sing one!
Bummer ):

Raise Your Glass - P!nk

I LOVE THIS WOMAN!
P!nk has been a woman I've always respected because she's daring and so uber cool!
Her songs are fabulous as well! :D

Raise Your Glass is an EXTREMELY funny video okay!
It's even funnier than Na Na Na (:
The entire video is filled with satire and scrumptious hilarity which will keep you coming back for more... champagne?

"RAISE YOUR... aw fuck." :D
The best line in the song ever!

Sex On The Radio - Good Charlotte

This video isn't exactly the official music video but still it's too nice to put it below.
I love Good Charlotte haha!
Their best song for me was still Keep Your Hands Off My Girl.

This song is quite great and with a feel-good kinda tune to it.
There isn't the heavy drums which many bands are doing right now.
Hurtful to my ears!

Sex On The Radio seems to flow comfortably into your ears and that's what makes it some good song!

Firework - Katy Perry

I SAVED THE BEST FOR LAST~! :D

The song is AMAZING!
At first when I heard it, I was like, Teenage Dream owns this.
But now when I hear the song and watch the video at the same time PROPERLY (because the previous times I heard it was when my sister kept playing it), I realised that this song is the greatest song out of the entire album.
At least currently.

The video is wonderfully beautiful!
It somehow resembles what the New Year night would seem like, which will come by in a month's time.

The last part of the video was the best!
The formation of the people which looked like a sun, with the fireworks gliding into the air, all looked like some Harry Potter magic.

But better.

This song is my favourite song right now!
And it's because of this song I'm sure that I wanna buy her album!
But I'm just afraid that after I buy it, some Deluxe Edition with MORE songs will come out.
I hate it when that happens :/

Other NICE songs (most w/o videos) to this date:

Angel - Akon
The Time (Dirty Bit) - Black Eyed Peas
Grenade - Bruno Mars
We R Who We R - Ke$ha
Tippin In The Club - Nelly
Shakin My Head - Detail feat. Flo Rida
Pretty Girl Rock - Keri Hilson

Okay I gotta go, 'cos I'm feeling so fly like a G6! xD

The End Day

2010-11-18T13:02:00.003+08:00

O Levels have finally ended (took me long enough to say that)!
But honestly, it felt that it ended like on last Friday or something :P

These few days have been very tiring!

Monday after Bio O Level MCQ, we went to celebrate Kit Chong's birthday! :D
We watched Incite Mill at AMK Hub and then ate at Aston's in The Cathay.
Then, we set our looong walk home (:

Tuesday we went shopping!
Very tiring LOL!
Wednesday was a follow-up on Tuesday.

Today is Thursday, which is our Graduation Night (:
Somehow, I feel that I can't wait for tonight to come by!
Because that'll mean the official end of my Secondary School life.
And I'm still quite feeling that I'm all tangled up with responsibilities and attachments which I can't shake off until the end of this week.

As in, I can't really experience my freedom as I have events all lined up for me.

This Saturday will be Ms Wu's wedding!
Can't wait for it as well haha (:

Plus I realised how much I've missed out with the Billboards and all those new singles.
Gonna have a tough time! ;)

Okay got to go, bye!

Losing My Religion

2010-11-04T22:57:00.002+08:00

These days I've been praying exceptionally hard to the people whom I believe in.
It's the O Levels - a major examination - and it'd be a period where I'll need some divine help.

I know I don't follow the usual conventional religions because I pray to God, Jesus and Mother Mary all at the same time but honestly, I admit that I do not know much about my religion.
I was raised in a kindergarten which shared many Christian stories (Noah's Ark, Moses, birth of Jesus, the Cruxification, the tomb) which have been quite close to my heart.

In the kindergarten, we organised many plays in the church nearby to our centre.
I remembered acting as Moses, a cow in the shed during the birth of Jesus and many more.
They were wonderful memories (:

This is why after the O Levels I've made a little mark on my journal (like My Name Is Earl) to find a church where I can receive further spiritual guidance.
I've been to numerous churches but so many of them either only have blind faith, pertaining ONLY to rock genre gospel music, mockery of other religions (when Jesus said to love each other like how he loves us) or just trying too hard to attract many followers and then shoving those money pouches in front of them.
It's quite hard to find a church where I can really believe in.

As I feel, the world is my church - I can pray anywhere I want, anytime I want, and with anyone I want.
But obviously, my knowledge on my own religion is sorely lacking, which is why Perry has been telling me to go to church instead of just relying on the Internet to find out about God, Jesus and Mother Mary.

Losing My Religion - REM

I was watching Glee's season 2 and their third episode touched quite a lot on religion.
The episode is named "Grilled Cheesus", and one of the songs they sang was Losing My Religion.
It's a beautiful song and the moment the background music started, I liked it.

When I pray, I always ask for guidance to achieve a better understanding of God.
Honestly, even when I pray, I don't explicitly say I wanna get my A1s for the examinations.
I'd feel a bit unnatural and self-serving.

I firmly believe that everything that happens in this world happens for a reason.
Whether it's good things or bad things which happen to you, there's a meaning behind it.
My opinion, that is.

So maybe if I don't deny myself from trying to receive guidance from churches, I'm like rejecting God's plan for me to understand him.
I have to try right?
I always have this fear that I go to church and I feel so alienated because I'm a newcomer, or I see someone I know and then I'll just freeze and act weird.

I'm also afraid that I'll start doing things insincerely; when everybody was like putting money into those money pouches, I felt inclined to do so as well.
That's lying to people and to myself, which is not something I like to do.

Anyway, I gotta go already.
But I know that as long as I believe, I'll be gaining my religion (:

P.S. Hope this post isn't blasphemous! Wasn't meant to be in any way!

I'm Not Dead!

2010-10-30T23:42:00.003+08:00

Haha the title of this post says it all.
It's a reference to Pink's album anyway (:
Who knew?

Anyway, since I'm online, I just thought I'd update my blog for a while.
It'll just take 5 minutes right?

This week, I've completed the English, E Maths and A Maths O Level papers!
English was easy except for vocabulary and composition.
E Maths was full of careless misteaks (read that!).
A Maths was easier than our school paper thank the lord! :D
We also did Chemistry Paper 2 which was waaaayyyy weird questions and it's difficult yeah :/

But not to worry!
Must keep a good spirit and think positive like My Sassy Neighbour does right?

Okay I'm feeling a bit TIRED so I wanna sleep...
Been DAYS since I've had a good night's sleep.

Lucky - Glee Cast

I LIKE THIS! :D
Honestly, I haven't heard the Jason Mraz version before.
But my sister was listening to this song and wow, I really like it haha!

I should really be studying right?

Right then, here I will be signing off!

P.S. I'M TAKING DOWN MY CBOX. IT'S IRRITATING.

The Second Life

2010-10-05T22:40:00.010+08:00

My internet's not working ):
So I can't post more pictures!

But anyway, I'm quite shocked at how school is going to end in a few days time.
It's like 4 years of life just going to be ended - or maybe changed - in some sort of way.

I still remember my Secondary 1 days very well.
They were filled with fun, laughter and excitement - what's there not to like about school?

However, Secondary 3 brought along a whole pile of homework along with it.
Life became a little more tiring, but still very interesting nevertheless.
Now I'm still left with that heap of homework.
Gotta reduce that mountain into a molehill.

PSLE is coming!
Well, my sister is taking it and she's studying really hard for it.
Honestly, although I've been disturbing her everytime when she studies, I really hope she'll do well (:
Don't tell her that! She doesn't read my blog! :O

I remember Primary School days when we all could run around ~~aimlessly~~, chasing each other in games of Vampire and Rubber Band shooting.

So much freedom, eh?

And nowadays, all I do is just stare at the clocktower daily, wondering when that hand will strike 1500 hrs on 15 November.

The entire Secondary School life will be over then.

Well, life in school now isn't with its random perks and fun (:
I was just randomly taking pictures in class, and as usual, trying to... "art-ify" things a little bit.

Candy anybody?

Lessons are just so tiring, you'll need a break!
And sweets from pencil boxes are just the little energy boosts you'll need to survive the rest of the day.

Teck Lee's stuff (:

Actually I took more pictures but yeah internet's lagging ):
Aiyoh after O Levels, I have so many plans I need to plan properly!!!
Like I wanna buy a good camera and learn some photograph editing skills.
Like fading backgrounds and colour contrasts iswhats notswhots.

School life is really coming to an end, is it?
If I could reverse time, I don't mind doing what I've did all over again!
Okay, MOST OF THE THINGS I did.

But I'm not a regretting person!
Because I believe that whatever happens was supposed to be meant that way.
There's always a reason (:

Maybe the next time I'll be seeing this empty field again, would be the time I depart from my Secondary School life.
This special part of my life is like my second life, as it's increasingly becoming my second home, and my second muse.
All the fond memories will depart with me as well (:

Treasure the last few days with live, love and life :)

P.S. Happy birthday October babies!
Like I know Dong Hong and Chiu Yang had their birthdays during the weekends.
And Xiang Kai's birthday's today so happy birthday! (:

Sorry I can't go onto FaceBook because it simply lags everytime at the login page so I forget birthdays! :O

School?

2010-09-29T19:46:00.002+08:00

Wow I've really been not using the computer for so many days!
I think it's like a new record of 6 days not touching the computer.

Hip hip, hooray?

Anyway, school doesn't feel the same anymore.
I don't know anything, like everything is just so different right now.
I don't know how to explain this as well... maybe it's just me.
Or maybe, it's the O Levels ):

I'm still facing loads of problems when doing questions!
Like, how to find maximum for surface area/graph huh what?!
See, it's just so... mind-boggling.

I hope I can get good results for O Levels!
Not really aiming for high A1s, but something that is good enough, and secure my points to the desired JCs (:
__________________________________________

I don't know what to say now... but oh yeah:

I LOVE HUI JIE'S BAG I WANT ONE OF THOSE AFTER O LEVELS!!!

There, I said it :) And it felt reaaal good.

Bye bye! And stop spamming my CBox with weird messages.

Fountain Of Inspiration

2010-09-20T22:36:00.002+08:00

HELLO PEOPLE! :D
YAY IT'S ANOTHER DAY WORTH LIVING FOR! (:

Okay, I like having a positive outlook on life and these days I have special people who encourage me to maintain such an outlook.

You know, O Levels are just at the corner, and I'm very very afraid, honestly.
It's the uncertainty and unexpectedness which might occur during the examinations!
Like, I don't know if I will go to the same schools as my friends, or do we have to split?
Will I not even have a single very close friend in my new JC?

So starting on Saturday, I was having all these random emo thoughts.
But then Martin came and he provided such an insight into my worries.
(Oh - the mention of the word 'insight' reminds me of the Drop Dead Diva comedy of the other word 'perspicacious'.)
I mean he told me like not to worry and that I should you know see what I do for O Levels then see what to do after that.

Also, we debated on like the pros and cons of a few Junior Colleges, and the subjects available to the students.
Like which subject is good? Which ones are we interested in?
Maybe debated is a bit too harsh a word, more like... discussed.

All and all, it was a very pleasant conversation because it made me believe in myself again, which is something I've not been doing these days due to a very low self-esteem.

During the course of Sunday and today, I talked to several people who inspired and cheered me on.

For example, there's Ashley who always gives a listening ear and we both share our worries for the future.
But then, she always also gives me encouragements and praises that make me calm down, and think much logically into the future.
Also, I feel that I can really talk to her, because she's a very understanding and kind person!

Also, every night I would talk to Perry, and he's been such a great support.
Always, he'll make me laugh and share some of his very revelatory wisdom.
This is always very interesting, and makes me feel like there's an actual goal in life (:

Today I talked to Teck Lee and Kit Chong as well!
We three had lunch which they invited me and it was quite fun and funny!
Like reducing the stress and sharing funny jokes with each other.
Also, they always share very inspirational short speeches and mottos which are like very hilarious and (I shall now use this word) perspicacious at the same time!

Btw, perspicacious, according to Drop Dead Diva, means being very insightful. (:
Haha the word led to a bimbo moment for Debb's friend during the Class Reunion Party.
DAMN FUNNY! :D

Promise This - Cheryl Cole

Honestly, I've never heard of this song before.
But when I went to YouTube, I saw it as one of the videos Being Watched Now.

So I clicked on it, and the song is quite... weird... because I'd never expect Cheryl to sing such a song.
But still, it's quite okay lah and nice (:
I really like the piano parts!

BYE BYE PEOPLE!

Help (:

2010-09-14T21:42:00.004+08:00

WAAAAITTT!!! I realised I haven't finished writing what I wanted to write.
I just realised something over the September holidays so I wanna share with you about it.

During the first weekend of the September holidays, I was bored at home and didn't have the motivation to study just yet.
So what did I do?
I went to watch TV shows!

I watched Drop Dead Diva! :D
It's an amazing show lemme tell you why.

Basically, it's about this hot femme fatale who aspires to be a The Price Is Right model.
However on her way to work (as the model), she crashed into a truck of grapefruit and died.
At the exact same time, another woman (the fat one) was shot by a gunman, as she dived for the bullet to save her boss's life.
This fat woman died eventually.

So the thin hot model went to heaven and met this angel.
At the computer terminals where the angels assess the spirit's good vs bad deeds in their lives, the thin model pressed a "Back" button where her spirit was sent back to Earth.
However, her spirit was sent into an empty vessel, which was the fat woman's one.

So she struggles with her life being this new her, the fat woman, who is also a lawyer.
She'll need to work with the fiance of her previous self, and also live with her only best friend who trust her.
Oh yeah, and angel too (forgot his name).

In this show, I realised how important it is to HELP OTHERS.
(Funny how National Education/Moral Education doesn't really seem to make me feel like helping others.)

The lawyers in the show have to help others like solve their cases.
And they solve these problems in very interesting ways!
Sometimes you gotta love the jury system in America! (:

And also, they do a lot of pro bono publico, which refers to free legal consultation for the poor or financially burdened.
In other words, they become the lawyers of people who cannot afford to pay.
So good right! Yeah, quite inspired by the community spirit! :D

You know, these months, I haven't been helping other people like I used to in Secondary 1 and 2.
I won't even say Secondary 3 because... haix didn't get to help many people at all.
I used to be soooo lively when it came to helping others, because I love helping others (:
Although sometimes CIP can be very boring. And demanding.

Which is why, after O Levels, I'm going to do more CIP work! :D
I've already planned a few events which I will be volunteering for in the course of the December holidays and next year.
Hopefully, I'll get to chalk up more CIP hours and also enjoy helping other people. :D

Oh, did I mention, I love Drop Dead Diva! :D
Thought it was a lousy show when it came out in Channel 5, but it's actually quite nice!

Season 2 passes please!

Speaking of season 2, GLEE has already telecasted its second season's promotional video!

Sorry, the audio and visual things don't match.
But anyway, I CAN'T WAIT FOR IT! :DDD

Okay, now then I say, BYE! (:

Another Day :/

2010-09-14T19:23:00.001+08:00

Okay, I'm having weird messages on my CBox.

Anyway, today really sucked for my exams.
It was Physics and E Maths.

Physics was still quite okay, because I managed to answer all the questions.
Which I hopefully hope that they're all passable!
Like a minimum B3 or B4 please? (:

E Maths was quite terrible too.
I thought I could get quite high marks one leh!
So I sat there and shake leg.

In the end, I found out I made so many errors!
SO IDIOTIC!
Like lost 8 marks currently or something liao.
But they're all based on carelessness, so tomorrow must be more careful!

READ THE QUESTION XUAN YU!
(if time permits).

Right now, I'm currently studying Geography.
And it's kinda boring -__________-
As in it can be fun, but human geog never seems to fail to agitate me like always ):
All those information to memorise! :O

I guess I have to do to the best of my abilities then :/
______________________________________________

Currently, although I'm not really posting anything about music, I'm actually checking the charts and music news quite often.
So despite seemingly not being in touch with music, I'm actually listening to many new ones!
:D
And Linkin Park's The Catalyst is quite heavy like Bleed It Out, but it's still awesome despite many people thinking it's a terrible choice.

And suddenly I like OneRepublic more than ever again (:

Okay bye.

The Pied Piper

2010-09-03T20:37:00.005+08:00

Sorry readers! It's been a few days since I last posted.
I've been busying myself with studies as the exams are already in process.
Plus, I've been finishing up on the series of Avatar: The Last Airbender.

Avatar is really a cool show!
Like it links up the people together kinda thing.
Like everybody is inter-related!
For example, the clothes they stole from in the Fire Nation (Book 3) were from the guy who killed Kitara's mother! :O

And the powers are like really lifelike.
Earth bending requires one to be like strong and stubborn, like earth.
Fire bending requires breath I think... cos of need of air?
Water bending is the element of change, and well, water is really adaptable.
Air bending is evasive-like...?
My bending knowledge isn't really that good.

But still, I really like Avatar! (:
_________________________________________

The Pied Piper leading the little children...

Recently I'm very interested in those folklore/legends again! (:
Because I feel that some of them do have some meaning to them.

This is the Pied Piper story, which in short, is about a guy who was hired to exterminate the rats in the village by luring them with his pipe.
He led the rats into a river, drowning them, during their dazed state.
The village did not pay him in full, as what they promised him though.
So the Pied Piper played his pipe again and attracted the children instead.
It is said that he led the children of the village into a cave, never to be seen again.
Some excerpts claim that at least 3 children were left behind - a lame, a deaf and a blind - who lived to tell what he did.

I feel that the Pied Piper is a metaphor for something or someone which attracts others people into following them.
Normally, I would say that there is some negative connotations in using this term.
Well, if someone like killed your children, won't you see him in bad light?

The Pied Piper in such, is a symbol of lure or seduction.
Once you're transfixed by his works of magic, it is really hard to get out of it again.
Like a succubus, he would attract his victims into following him and getting what he wants.
In other words, an ulterior motive.

Some theories suggest that the Pied Piper tale came from the phrase "pay the piper", which means to face the inevitable consequences of one's actions.
Like how the village did not pay their promised amount to him.

Others suggest his actions as paedophillia, as well... imagine an adult attracting young children!

Ain't he an interesting character?

Well... at least wear some pants!

The Pied Piper was also seen as a symbol of death.
I mean he did cause the death of many living things (rats, children...).
Based on Wikipedia, the Death is usually seen in those 'pied clothings', which I guess it's those robes in the first picture of this post.
It's important that we are alert to see what kind of clothings such paintings usually don.

There are many interpretations lah, so I guess almost anything can fit through?
________________________________________

Okay I'm off from here... gotta go!
Hope you didn't find my new post creepy or whatsoever am I talking about death right now. (:

Marching On

2010-08-26T21:28:00.002+08:00

Wow surprise surprise! I'm online! :D
And this is my third post this week! Haha pretty awesome huh?

Anyway today's going to be a short post since I have to write an english essay.
Currently writing it now, but I'm too distracted with music on YouTube that I could concentrate in writing the essay properly.

Today, Mrs Yap gave us an essay question, to either write one-word essays or expository.
The one-word essays are "Light" and "Flight".
I'm currently writing "Flight" because I thought of something.
And I wanted to write "Light" but then the idea on "Flight" preceded it.

Okay today, I'm not going to talk about homework and stuff because it's so boring.
Let's talk about life stuff!

Prelim 3s are coming and I'm not even the least bit frightened.
HELLO WAKE UP!
I should be frightened. I ought to be.
However, I'm just zoning about, thinking last-minute revisions will save me.
Well, they do, but I'm not going to just rely on that!

And Teachers' Day is coming!
So I'm having ideas on buying gifts yeah!

OMG IM BEING SPAMMED ON MSN.

Marchin On - OneRepublic

This song is nice!
Actually I have the Timbaland version one, the one from Timbaland's album?

But OneRepublic recorded their own version too, as in without Timberland.
This one is more emotional, and the bridge was so painful to hear, it was beautifully melodious.
Like the sounding-ly out of tune singing and music? Wow!
Not many singers can make such music without sounding horrible!!!

Timbaland's version is also quite nice lah, but a bit too... expected.
The OneRepublic solo version is much better! (:

OKAY GOT TO GO BYEESSS!!!

The Writer

2010-08-24T21:56:00.004+08:00

Wow, today I stayed back in school to finish my Chemistry!
I was all alone in the classroom but I managed to finish my homework.
Quite fun haha to you know detach from the social world for a while.

Anyway, I forgot to mention some stuff in my earlier post of "Reminiscence". (I SPELT IT CORRECTLY!)
You know today I was going back home when I saw Kai Zhen.
Then she reminded me of the days in Primary 6 - Secondary 1, where we used to play MapleStory.

MapleStory was so fun then, because I spent $10.50 on prepaid cards to buy 2X EXP.
And there were Christmas events so I had 4X EXP.

Sneaky, eh?

Anyway, those days I used to play with Kai Zhen, Zhong Hao, Yi Herng, Kenneth Lui and Celine (YH's sister).
Sometimes even Tai Yuan, Kian How and Kai Shin would come online too!
So it was a lot of fun, and PQing, and talking crap, and me being party leader (YAY I CAN MULTI CLICK WITH MY LAPTOP), and defaming each other :D

Such times, I sometimes wish were still here...

Then we would listen to 987FM Top 20 Countdown!
IT'S DAMN FUN.
Like halfway into doing PQ, I would scream things like "OMG IRREPLACEABLE BY BEYONCE IS NUMBER ONEEEE!!!! OMG GLAMOROUS BY FERGIE IS IN THE CHARTS!!! MUAHAHHAHAHAHAA!!!"

Then KZ and YH will F7 me.

It's really quite fun, now that I think about it.
Like the past was so long ago! But so worth thinking about.
Friendship, it seems, is a very important thing.
(Realise my post keeps digressing like how lessons always go.)

Still, anyway, I would listen religiously to 987FM, listening out for new songs and latest entertainment news.
And I owe my DJ infatuation all to 987FM - after all, they made me like music! (:

But now, sadly, I don't listen to radio anymore.
Not that often actually.
Radio 913FM seems to be playing much newer and current songs most of the time.
But 987FM still has some of the bests DJs ever (Muttons To Midnight was the bombz!)

Haixxx... really miss 2007 and 2008 days...
__________________________________________________

Anyway, this post is named The Writer because I listened to Ellie Goulding's The Writer and it's such a beautiful song!
I never knew much about her, except for her other beautiful song Starry Eyed.

YouTube doesn't allow me to embed the video (BLEAHS!) so here's the link:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-ru2glqXAg

Go listen to it! (:

Reminiscence

2010-08-23T22:02:00.002+08:00

Honestly I forgot how to spell the word for the title when I first typed it out.
Nevertheless, I have a self-correcting dictionary! So yay for me (:

Anyway, I was thinking about my childhood days suddenly when I was listening to music.
Realise everything in this world links to music! :D

So I was reminiscing like the nights I would wrestle with my second brother on the bed.
I thought I was strong because I have body weight right, hahaha!
It was quite easy to push him off the bed! :D
Oh, and my sister would join in sometimes too.
Such sibling bonding times have to be kept secret or else my parents would scold us for jumping on their bed.

Then due playing much on my brother's XBox, which we would play WWE Raw, we learnt many of the moves.
Like F5 and... I forgot others.

I really liked using Stephanie McMan (I KINDA FORGOT HOW YOU SPELL HER NAME) and Torrie Wilson, for the females. For the males, I liked using Eddie (the Liar Cheater Stealer guy) and Triple X. And sometimes The Rock.

Or better yet, my own customised character was the best butt-kicker I ever made.

Such dynamic WWE moves can never be wasted.
We tried it on the Barbie dolls my sister used to play with.

So there would be 2 Barbie dolls and they'll be clotheslining and chokeslaming all the way through.
Kinda violent, but those pretty two girls smiled all the way through.
They must have been very happy (:

Oh, did I mention - Barbie dolls tend to play so wildly until they lose their heads, literally.
___________________________________________________

If I Die Young - The Band Perry

Haha I saw this song on the Billboards and their name sounded nice, so I listened to it.
Perry said the female vocal was like a hoarser version of Taylor Swift.
I think that the video is so beautiful - more singers should make this kind of videos!
Those that have such vivid and wondrous sceneries!

I think the song is nice anyway (:
We need more country songs!
_______________________________________________

Okay got to go! Bye bye! (:

Pending: O Level Orals

2010-08-19T20:40:00.002+08:00

WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT'S O LEVEL ORALS TOMORROW!!!

And of course I'm very nervous for this because... I've not been doing very well lately?!??!?!
As in not up to my expectations lah.
AND ALSO, I'm very afraid of like misinterpreting the question or stumbling on my words or don't know what to say!

But, I shall remain happy (:"

Okay wish me good luck!

Tuesday Reaching

2010-08-17T19:56:00.002+08:00

Yucks, nobody tagged again! ):

Anyway, I shouldn't be online really because I should be doing my homework or doing my revision.
But I lied to myself that I would do homework-related research online so, here I am.
Hmmm funny world isn't it?

The O Level Oral is like creeping up to me already.
IT'S SO CLOSE!!!
Mine's this Friday so at least I still have (I do?!) a few days to prepare more.
Not really much time left if you ask me.

You know I'm so preoccupied with the oral that I even started DREAMING about it.
In my dream, the oral took place on this isolated island, which was quite beautiful.
There was this table and chair, and the examiner (just one) who was female staring at me.

I looked at the passage I got and it was only a 3-liner.
Very scary can!
And the next thing was that the teacher scolded me and I woke up from the dream.

What a fortunate sign.
_________________________________________________

Okay and on the other hand, I'm very scared for my O Levels.

Like I've heard throughout the past two years, people repeating this over and over again:

"PSLE don't need to study one lah."

And I'm like whaatttt when people score 250++ when they didn't even study for PSLE.
Meanwhile back in primary 6, I was loaded with papers and papers from different school for PSLE!
And what did I get, I got only 240 for the exam.
Wah primary school burn midnight oil still get lousy marks.

You know what I'm afraid the most is that I can only do well in school exams, but when it comes to national/international types, the only time I'll see a good score is on my friends' result slips.

I also realise that I'm striving to get good results not for the sake of entering good schools, but rather to have the choice to enter schools my friends will choose.
Is this a good motivator or a bad influence on myself? I don't know.

But what I do know is that whatever happens, there's a reason for it.

OKAY BYE. AND TAG.

Sour Grapes

2010-08-14T23:45:00.005+08:00

Alright people, I know I've been MIA (Missing In Action) for the past few days.

But I shall be more active right now kay?
Kinda sorry as although I wouldn't say I'm busy, I was lazy.
I had so many ideas to present to you guys but I was too lazy to login to blogger.
Like as if typing my password was like a 1.6km run.

Okay anyway, today's post is for a friend.
A friend whom I met today and is a very nice person (:
We talked together for quite long, and I think our talk is not only interesting, but a very nice one.
All in all, it was a great friendly companionship.
I really wanna say a big thank you for accompanying me! :)

Firstly, I'd like to say that you say things which comfort me and make me feel better about myself.
That is something not many people can do.

Like not many people know what I really want to hear (we all do have such things right?).
Well maybe it's nice to hear the "you're such a nice person" line, because it really affirms me that I'm doing the right thing.
But to praises like "oh you're so smart!", I don't really feel that good for a praise.
I think that's because I rather know how my friendship status is like with my friend, and not things about myself.
Like telling me I'm a nice friend means our relationship is good.
But telling me I'm smart... and I get speechless but I'll say thank you.

Secondly, you never fail to make me laugh.

Wow, I mean every sentence and action you do, sends me into this uncontrollable fit of laughter!
Like all the crazy things you do is certainly very funny!
I guess I'm really open which is why you'll dare to do such things in front of me (:
(I mean you won't go dancing in the MRT and sing loudly there right? Or you'll get STOMPed.)

Thirdly, you trust in me.

When people entrust you with secrets and stuff, it most of the times translates to trust in you.
And isn't it a great thing that people trust you?
It really says how you think of me and indirectly say that I'm trustable.
Which is good, right?
Not trying to self-praise here, but yeah, I really want to thank you for trusting me.

You're a great friend and I guess we'll be for the next many years to go! :D

NOTE: Please don't tag on my CBox and ask who this friend is, or whether it is you. TY!
____________________________________________________

The other day, I was talking to Perry, who's an aspiring psychologist.
Well, he's very interested in psychology, so he reads up on it right?

Anyway, I came across this term called sour grapes.

Sour Grapes means, if I read it correctly but do tell me if I'm wrong, hating something because you cannot get it.
Let me explain its origins before elaborating further.

In Aesop's fables, there's this tale of Sour Grapes, which I'll briefly outline the story:

Once, there was a wolf which was hungry.
He walked around until he saw a tree, with grapes hanging from its branches.

He wanted to get the grapes, but they were too high for him to get.
Jump as he tried, he just couldn't reach the grapes.

Finally, he started criticising the grapes.
He told himself, the grapes must be sour, it must not be tasty at all.
He started telling himself that the grapes have to be not nice.

And with that, he walked away, forever thinking that the grapes were sour and therefore not useful to be trying to get them.

Many times in our lives, when we cannot get something we want, we'll start criticising it.
We'll start telling ourselves, "Nah, it must be stupid. It must be horrible. Waste of my time trying to get it."
And then we'll walk away.

This, from my knowledge and interpretation, is the Sour Grapes theory.

Let's give a more practical situation.

Situation 1
Boy likes girl, but can't get her.
Boy always think about her, but still cannot think of ways to get her.
So close, but yet so far.

Boy starts thinking that it isn't worth it.
Boy starts telling himself that girl is not worth it, starts telling himself, "Aiyah, this girl must be no good one lah."
Boy dislikes girl (in the conscious mind), and moves on with life.
Also, boy might even start HATING the girl, which may be a lie.

Situation 2
Boy wants to learn how to play the guitar.

Boy plays the guitar, trains and trains and trains and trains.
However, boy still can't get the skills to play the guitar.

Boy is upset and tired, he thinks, "Playing the guitar is so difficult. Plus, it so useless in my life. No interest already. What a waste of my time!"
Boy starts to give up on guitar, and walks away.

Situation 3
Boy is learning chinese language.

Boy revises, does his homework, studies and studies.
The boy still cannot get those words in his brain! Those sayings in his brain!

Boy gets frustrated.
Boy starts telling himself, "Chinese is stupid! So difficult. Plus it's not really that useful in my life. I REALLY HATE CHINESE!!!"
Boy gives up on chinese, well, maybe forever.

Do these situations somehow fit some of the things you feel?
Sour Grapes is like when you cannot get something you covet, you start thinking bad thoughts about it, telling yourself that it's not good.
Then you give up and walk away.
Thing is, you have a negative impression on that thing.

I guess that if you're aware of such a theory, you might think twice next time before saying that something is really horrible.
Maybe give it a chance, don't give up on it.
Maybe you'll finally reach the grapes, and well, taste its sweetness and juiciness.

Okay, finally I don't know if my interpretation and knowledge of the Sour Grapes theory is right or not.
But the thing is that whatever I just said, does happen in our lives.
So we have to be alert when such things happen.

And do tell me, if I get any of my facts wrong. In a nice way.
Or else I might think my psychology field is like crap, and give up on it. (:

Goodbye readers!
AND TAG YOU PEOPLE!!! :)

Teenage Dream

2010-08-04T20:23:00.002+08:00

You know, I just love Katy Perry.
I think she has some of the most greatest songs ever!
And all her songs in her first album are wonderful.
Very hard to find a singer nowadays who produce albums with all songs being nice.
The only ones I have are like Ke$ha, Katy Perry and maybe Lady Gaga.
And Nightwish, definitely Nightwish.

Okay sorry guys for not updating for the past week!
I've been busy studying for the O Level Science SPAs okay!
I tell you ah, I study so much, I understood most of Electricity & Magnetism already okay!
Crazy right? I even know what's a step-up transformer and the step-down one!

And I finally found out solenoid is not something you can eat.

I think that the SPAs are pretty awesome, because they allow you to like revise for some topics.
So you wouldn't need to study too hard for the upcoming test(s)!
Well, there's the thing about forgetting what you learnt (like how I've forgotten all the conditions needed during the organic chemistry section).
But the main thing is, all you need is REVISION.

Oh yeah - I wasn't being random when I talked about Katy Perry at the first part of my blog.
In fact, I want to talk about her latest single, "Teenage Dream".

I think it's a wonderful song!
Not really the best, but it somehow made me wanna sing it out loud!
For those who are covering your ears now, gtfo.
For those who wanna hear it, I tell you, come sing with me!!! :D

(On hindsight, I think I shall not talk about the song until I see the video. I always see the video.)

Oh yeah, and I received back my composition titled "Marriage"!
I scored 24/30! (:

I'm quite contented with myself despite so many more scoring 25s and 26s.
I think I'm improving from my 17/30 disaster during Prelim 2!
Ain't that great? :)

However, I'm quite afraid when I enter JC!
I mean, I don't know how to write expository essays!
They're the most boring thing you can ever write.

Furthermore, I feel that the education system really sets this unnecessary boundary.
I mean for those who rather think creatively, for Narrative Writing, and weak in the Expository ones, why are we denied the chance to write it for A Level?
So unfair right!
But well, I guess I still have to learn it either way or the other.

Loads of rambling...
Talk talk talk...
Haiyah...

OH YEAH, HIGHER CHINESE is the most AWESOME period this week so far!
I mean, Sun Lao Shi is really a very funny teacher!
His classes are full of fun and laughter everytime!
Well, most of the times actually.
But yeah, haha!

He's such a nice teacher okay!
He even treated a few of us the Student Lounge Ice Lemon Tea for our HCL Extra Lessons on Tuesday!
So nice right! I tell you ah, I'm definitely giving him something for Teachers' Day! :)

Okay, National Day is coming, which most people are laughing in joy is because they have practically 5 days of holidays (Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon, Tues).
Wow, that's like a whooole week gone!

Taxi* people!

* taxi: an expression of how I say bye bye, learnt from my kindergarten friend

Ambition

2010-07-27T21:13:00.002+08:00

You know these days, I've been thinking about what jobs and careers I've been wanting to do, so I shall write a post about it.
_________________________________________

When I was young, like really young, I've always wanted to be a SINGER!
Because I love music! And singing exposes me to more of such music.
It also gives me this sense of satisfaction which you derive from singing.
Like expressing your feelings, or even expressing the feelings of others.
I think they call it 'role play'.

Then, I started diverting my attention to becoming a TEACHER in around Primary school.
I think that was about Primary 2... around there lah (:
I thought to myself, "HAHA, I'm going to be the best, kindest teacher of all!"

Because I always used to think of all the "evil" teachers out there, and how it's so easy to become the kind teachers we always wanted!
Like in primary school, I always here some students say, "I hate this teacher! He always go and scold me one."

So in my mind, I was like, "I can do better." Or something like that.
I pictured myself getting along with students and giving them treats now and then.

Currently, I don't really mind being a teacher.
I always hear the complaints of its paltry salary and stress over marking papers.
But I think, I like to inspire my students, so I'm in for it!

HOWEVER, now I've totally turned my attention into being an ACTOR!!!
I've always done acting as it is my favourite thing to do!
I don't know how you explain it, but I just like acting in different roles and playing parts of others.

It's embarrassing, but my dream is to become a HOLLYWOOD ACTOR!

Okay, firstly this dream has always been put down by my friends and families.
My parents always say that acting is a seriously tough job and that it's not as glamorous as it seems to be.
They know some MediaCorp actors who have worked with them before, and are friends, and they say that it's a tough job.
Like they'll ring you anytime in the night while you're half-asleep to go filming.
Think about that!

The thing is - I don't wanna act to live a glamorous life.
I wanna act because it's my passion, I really love acting.
Be it a theatre drama or a TV show or a movie, I'm fine with all such options!
As long as I can act (and not be a tree in a play), I'm totally fine! :D

You see, I've many ambitions in life, and I'm sure you guys have too!
Most wanna be doctors, lawyers, and many more!
If I can't be a singer, actor or teacher, I'll be a psychologist!
Since I'm quite interested in human behaviour.

Sounds cool, ain't it?
________________________________________________

Tomorrow's our Chem SPA Skill 3 Test!
Wish everybody good luck!

I'm most confident for Chemistry, but not for Biology and never Physics.
However, you know they love to pop out weird questions.
So I guess I'll have to stay vigilant about it.

Hohoho, merry Christmas! (:

Misery's Business

2010-07-22T20:32:00.003+08:00

I'm feeling so miserable these days.
I don't know why I'm feeling like that anyway.

BUT on the bright side, I've finished ALL of my homework!
Isn't it amazing?! I never knew I could achieve this feat at all.
Well, even I finished HCL!!! :D
Take that, stupid homework!

Anyway, it's really quite scary how close the O Levels are.
English Orals are probably at about 20 days later.
HOW CLOSE THAT IS!
And the Science SPAs are like next week too.
Totally not prepared!

School has been quite fun though, even Biology has been like the funnest subject for these few days.
I'm losing interest in English :/
I'm starting to be okay with HCL... (Sun GZ is THE FUNNIEST!!! & I can see he's motivating us now already)
A Maths is improving... (:
The humanities I still don't know content... ):
Chemistry seems EASY, but somehow I can't get high marks.
My physics is heading straight to the drains.
______________________________________________

Okay, so tomorrow I'm going to watch the EL Drama's production of Boom!
I hope it'll be a fun inspiring show!
Will be going there with Brian and Perry as planned so far...
______________________________________________

Okay, you know I've been reading and researching a lot about the end of the world, New World Order, symbols, dark stuff behind the music videos we are loving, and so many others.
I shall talk about such stuff in a separate post next time (:
Because I'm trying to write as detailed as possible, and as non-biased as possible.

Also there are times I get my facts wrong!
Whoops! I guess I'll need a disclaimer when I write it!

Yeah, and there are like aliens taking parts in the story.
Sometimes I feel I'm being watched. Quite scary haha. I guess it's paranoia again.
______________________________________________

Alrights, jiayou jiayou dong dong da qi (these are drum sounds) for everyone!

And The Reason Is You

2010-07-20T20:13:00.003+08:00

Okay, you know I was doing my Chemistry homework.
Then I decided to read other people's blog and got all emo on it.
Because it sounds so... SAD! And I can totally relate to that guy.
Then because it was so sad, I started singing "The Reason".
It's by Hoobastank, who I don't see anymore these days.

ANYWAY, I like English music!
But I just can't find a suitable time to listen to anything at all now.
Right now I'm in the middle of my Chemistry homework.
And I wanna watch The Noose and Can You Serve!

I've been finishing all my homework recently.
But just as one day finishes, the next one arises.
I don't like leaving unfinished homework about in my file.
There's this paranoia that the teacher will say, "Okay, take out the June paper now."
And I'll be like, "Gblkjashnekfahasdfuh."

Haiyah, I guess this is just good revision!

Crescent Royale

2010-07-18T20:10:00.002+08:00

You know it's depressing when I see an untagged CBox.... ):

SO TAG MORE! :D
_______________________________________________

Okay, this week was very fun!

Firstly on Friday night, I went to Crescent Royale, which is Crescent Girls School's music awards competition!

So I met up with Ashley and her friends at J8 and then we rushed there.
It was fun actually like thinking we were going to be late (okay... it was kinda scary though) because the bus 111 wasn't like coming any time soon.

But once we got onto the bus, the travel was very smooth! :D

OKAY, anyway the concert was quite okay lah (:
I mean some singers were nice, and some of the dancers were very great!
I was thoroughly astonished when the dance trio who got 1st danced!
They were exceptionally great, I'd have to say!

Oh and at the concert I saw a few friends and our favourite Maths teacher, MR JULIAN TEO!
Hahahahaha it was funny when I saw him on stage *laughs*!
I bet if the whole of CHS was there, you'd expect the biggest cheers ever.

After that, Ashley and her friend Florence and I went to eat at ION Orchard.
I'd have to say dinner was quite enjoyable and hilarious at the same times.
I guess I'll just have to reserve ghost stories another day! (:

That concludes Friday, which was a very fun day! (:
______________________________________________

Saturday I went to school for A Maths stuff!
Now, do I realise what's wrong with my maths already!
Still got loads to buck up!

Then after that, I went out with Martin and Xiang Kai to eat at Pizza Hut!
It was quite a fun lunch lah, had a few laughs here and there! (:

After that, Martin and I went to 'study' at TP Library.
In the end we went there to borrow books! HAHA!

So evening came and I went to my grandma's house.
We had dinner and everything was kinda fun (:

Loads to eat on this day!
_________________________________________

Today I sat at home and finished all my homework. Enough said.
_________________________________________

Okay this week kinda ended boringly.
And the homework pile is just starting to rise.

Alright, BYE! (and tag you readers!)

Let's Get Re-Started

2010-07-14T21:59:00.002+08:00

YOYOYO!

Okay, I know I'm rather active these past few days on Blogger.
But that's because I've finished (mostly) all of my homework! :D

And I'm just bored, and can't play the music I want because my sister's in the room.
She's taking PSLE this year so I can't disturb her.

And I have O Levels and I'm like slacking like a pig ):

ANYWAY, today's post is short because I'm just going to announce something:

I think I'm restarting the Happyface Company Top Countdown Music Charts! :D

So yeah haha! Watch out for it!
I realised how much happier I am with music in my world!!!
______________________________________________

You know these days I'm emo-ing so much, it's starting to scare me too.

I was thinking today... what if I scored badly for O Levels (well, things can happen) and I enter a JC which I don't really like?
Honestly for me, it's not that I don't like the JC... but it's the self-inflicted humiliation I'll get from my friends/schoolmates.

It's like, I know some people will like tong qing me lah, and no one would probably do so much as to laugh at me.
But still, it'll feel as if everyone was like secretly mocking me.

If you don't know what I mean, try walking at the front of the plaza when everybody's there.
Honestly, no one really cares about you walking there, but you seem to feel as if everyone's staring at you.

It's some stupid thing I guess...
____________________________________________

Alright, got to go, so bye! (:

Boys Look So Much Hotter In The Summer

2010-07-13T21:42:00.009+08:00

HAHA YAY! Today is another successful day at school.

Not only have I found it easier to do some A Maths stuff, but the homework load is still acceptable (:
Only that the new english comprehension was still very whatever.

Okay I shan't talk about results anymore. Very old news.
_____________________________________________

Now what do you call a DJ who doesn't play music?
Well, apparently there's really nothing you can call him.

SO, I shall talk about some music that have been released:

Boys In The Summer - Jessie James

Haha that's the real reason for the title of this post! Whaddya expect!
This is sort of like a country with a heavier sense of bass.

I don't know why, but much songs are now tuning to a heavier bass.
Well... the heavy bass are always the heavyweight champions in songs (:
Definitely very great for all types of songs!

So anyway, Boys In The Summer is a great song!
It sounds like those country-summer songs, yet sounds very funky and cool.
The beat is catchy as well, and the lyrics are well-written.

I was laughing throughout the video/song because well, she can really write some witty lines! :D

Love The Way You Lie - Eminem feat. Rihanna

Honestly, when I first heard this song, I was like... "The guy is definitely Eminem... but the woman... IS THAT RIHANNA?!?!?!"

Well, I would've never expected Eminem and Rihanna to have a collabo' together.
But nowadays you can see some rappers syncing with pop singers already!
Think Flo Rida, and how about the currently rising song "Airplanes" by Bobby Ray with Hayley?

At first, I didn't really quite get the song.
However now listening onto YouTube again, I feel that this song is actually quite nice!
You know Eminem always have such great lyrics, seriously.
My favourite from his is still Toy Soldiers.

The song comes in a form of sarcasm, which is much obviously seen in Rihanna's chorus.
"I like the way it hurts", "I love the way you lie".

And sarcasm is sort of a reverse psychology ploy at inflicting heavier damage at someone.
It protects the swearer, as technically he didn't say anything wrong.
But the words he carry are definitely loaded with those hurtful emotions.

Misery - Maroon 5

Nicole introduced this song to me!

This is Maroon 5's newest song yet, and at first it sounded very like oh okay, a song, to me.
However, I got really hooked on after listening to it over and over again.
It grew onto me, I really liked the song!

Okay I've got not much time left so I shall rush...

Dirty Talk - Wynter Gordon

A GREAT DANCE SONG!
In fact, if I'm not wrong, it's No. 2 on the Billboard Dance Charts right now!

Remember Wynter from Flo Rida's Sugar?
Yeah, this is her again!

This song is really great for pleasurable listening.
It's not as heavy as other songs, and it carries a very light-weighted tune inside your ears.
In fact, I really like listening to the song hahahaha!!!

Alive - Goldfrapp

WOW, I tell you, the VIDEO IS CRAZY!

There's just so much you can interpret from the video, and don't start comparing Lady Gaga to her!
I mean, stop saying she's copying and all that. Cut that crap.

Recently, because of Lady Gaga's crazy antics in her videos and live performances, many artistes have switched to the theme of THEATRICALITY in their shows too!

They dress up heavily, and hire many dancers.
The scenes, the dance moves, the actions, all of them really carry heavy meanings.
It's like High Art itself, which if you do not have the knowledge on religion and conspiracies, it's really quite hard to interpret "correctly" the meanings.

I'll talk more about such meanings at a later post, as I've found this amazing website which I've been following.

Anyway, Alive has this retro beat to it.
And it's there for a reason.
If you see the dancers being vampires, and pious cultists, it all points to a certain meaning!

(All pictures have been taken from the Wikipedia website.)
___________________________________________________________

OKAY SO I GOTTA GO, AND BYE!
I shall explain myself on what I was talking about in another post.

Despicable Me

2010-07-11T21:31:00.004+08:00

HEY WORLD!

Thanks so much for starting to reread my blogs some of you, and those who've always tuned in! :D
Really appreciate it!

Okay, so I've like received my first (and only) A1 >>> HISTORY.
It was actually quite close to dropping to another grade, because I kinda failed my SEA essays.
But my Prelim 2s pulled me up for this subject.
Don't wanna talk anymore about this LOL.
______________________________________________

So Saturday was HOMECOMING DAY.

This year, we don't need to do anything! :D
Cos we're Sec 4s and we deserve our break!
4-2 did though and sold glass bottled drinks, which I think is really really cool!

So I went there and everyone was like wearing the Homecoming shirt.
I kinda like stuck out in the crowd lol (it felt like it).

This year, everything's much neater!
Like the arrangement of stalls was well-planned and the place was very neat!
I won't say clean though - water everywhere.

Quite fun lah, haha!
This year I spent quite little comparing to previous years.
I remember primary school Homecoming Days spelt asking for $30 from my parents.
WOOHOO!

Oh, and I saw Melody from St. Nick's, who also participated in RMUN!
She's one of the cheerleaders.
I didn't know she was though so surprising to see her.

Nice day! Haha :D
_____________________________________________________

Okay, so Friday I watched Despicable Me with Perry, Joel and Dong Hong! :D

SOURCE: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/1214097-despicable_me/pictures/43.php#highlighted_picture

*WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD* <<< (actually I dunno if I'm leaking anything anyway but I'm just lazy so I just write it)

Okay, so the show is about the evil man, called Gru who aspires to be the world's No. 1 villain.
Also, his childhood dream is to get to the Moon (mine's just go to the ice cream shop).

So, in a sort of ways, he has to adopt the 3 little girl orphans in order for him to execute his plans.
But throughout the journey, he develops a sense of liking towards to children and really cares for them.
The movie follows through this process as he strives to be the best bad guy.

I think that this movie is really really cute, and it's quite nice and funny! (:
However, it still follows a predictable plot and sometimes slapstick humour.
Honestly though, I'd take any predictable plots as long as the ending is NICE!!!
I really don't like the horror films because the ending is always GOOD!

I'll rate this movie a 7/10.
It has many lovable characters and the LITTLE YELLOW MINIONS ARE SO CUTE!

I want one of those!

I tell you, these yellow minions are so cute that throughout the whole movie, they provide much humour and funny jokes.
I was also like, "I WANT ONE OF THOSE! I WANNA BUY ONE!"

I shall visit Mini Toons 9 times a week.

Also, the movie is best in 3D, because many of the effects are supposed to wow you in 3D.
These scenes are especially obvious at the theme park and at the end.
Too bad, there isn't any student price for 3D movies ):

Haha, still you should catch Despicable Me for its cuteness and funny factor!
____________________________________________________

Because I'm speaking on movies now, here are some movies I wanna catch this month:

The Sorcerer's Apprentice
IT'S THAT SHE'S OUT OF MY LEAGUE GUY AGAIN!

I think.

But the show's trailer seems quite cool, like all the special magic things.
I'm a sucker for such movies - really love them.

At first I thought the movie was about the Disney story.
But then wow, it seems quite interesting!
Hopefully, the movie has many powers kinda thing.
Like Push, which was really cool and I wanna see the sequel (is there?).

Salt
There's Angelina Jolie, enough said.

This story is kinda exciting in fact!
Plus with the current Russian spies incident over at USA, it kinda stirs up more interest in this show.

This movie is about the intelligence agency or something like that, finding out about a person going to assassinate the President.
And that spy's name, is Jolie's character.

This called for a whole mission to hunt for Jolie, as she tries to escape them.
She tries to convince that her identity was probably stolen, but to no avail.

The thing is - is Jolie really innocent? Or is she too playing the cards?

Liar Game
Honestly, I don't know what this show is about.

But Perry has been talking about it quite recently, and it sounds quite interesting.

I WANNA WATCH!

The Last Airbender
Alright... I know the first thing many people have said is about the huge Western cast, when it's supposedly Asian characters.

However, I wouldn't miss this show because of the cast.
It looks kinda awesome!

The special effects seen so far on the trailer are quite nice!
(Although I'll be terribly disappointed if that's all they have.)

I don't know, but I'm catching this Avatar! :P
_____________________________________________________

Alright, got to go!

Signing off,
Ciaos,
Au revoir,
Zai jian,
Taxi taxi (what we used to say in kindergarten)!!! :D

If I Had A Dime, For Every Single Time...

2010-07-08T21:03:00.002+08:00

TODAY WAS EMBARRASSING!

You know this Prelims 2 is like damn suck.
I've so far failed 3 subjects.
English, Physics and A Maths. ):

Honestly, I don't feel the least bit emo like how I'd felt in the past.
But it's just this bugging irritating feeling.

HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

O Levels are like just 3 months down the corridor.
Just takes a while before "Knock knock - who's there" comes about.

I'm not studying hard.
I'm not taking things seriously.
I'm doing lousily for all my subjects.

You know I lost 4 marks in the Geography paper because I forgotten to put the adjectives to describe the climograph (e.g. 'high' mean annual temperature).
Then today when Mr Ang went through with me E & A Maths did I realise many of them were unnecessary mistakes.
I need to buck up on my A Maths as well, differentiation and integration.

At least I've got History to hope about!
So far, my History is an A1, as long as the SEA essays don't pull me down.
But if my SEA essays were screwed up, I might not have a single A1 this term.
______________________________________________

ANYWAYS, today during HCL was very embarrassing okay!
My script was being made fun of because of several stupid mistakes.

Firstly, the plot was horrible.
It was like the worst kind of shit I could have written.

Secondly, the "gong gong" in my essay was being read as an EUNUCH.
I was saying GRANDFATHER of course, but well...
.________________.

Thirdly, the tong fang thing.
I didn't know it meant like sleeping together.
I just thought it meant being in the same room.
And I won't show you the whole sentence or else it'd be made even a further laughingstock.

You know at first I didn't realise he was talking about my essay.
Because he used the words "cheng hua" and I never knew such a word.
So I thought he was just referring to someone who somehow wrote quite similarly as me.

THEN, he started talking about the birthday bash being at the hotel.
I KNEW IT WAS MINE.
I started laughing at myself because you know, hahahaha, yeah.

THEN, HE SHOWED MY NAME.
That was seriously the most embarrassing thing can!
Like I could see everyone in front of me turning backwards and like staring at me.
I WAS SO GAN GA ALRIGHT!

Ahhh... well all's well end's well. :)

OKAY, I gotta run so BYE BYE!
Watch Despicable Me tomorrow! :D

The Wheels of a Bus Goes Round and Round

2010-07-07T21:10:00.003+08:00

Hello depressing world! :/

I'm back from like script check for most papers and I'm sad to say...

I FAILED 2 SUBJECTS!!!

Okay, this is really actually quite scary because I've never failed a subject before.
Plus, it's not only ONE, but it's like TWO!!!

Okay the first subject I failed was like A Maths.
I had only like 49/100, which is 1 mark away from passing! ):

Then the second I failed is PHYSICS.
I guess it was quite unexpected.
Honestly, I never thought of doing well for Physics, but failing it is a different story altogether.
Let the sad faces rule the world! :( :( :( :( :(

But on a HAPPY note, I have such great supportive friends!
You know people around you, they are actually very nice people.
It's important to bring the niceness out of them towards you! :D

Anyway, I've finally planned on how to use the diary Ashley gave to me as a birthday present!
And I'm not going to tell any of you!!! :P
____________________________________________________

Alright, one thing I wanna say about the entertainment world, is the show Skins.

Honestly, I was like what-the-hell, Singaporeans only watch the shows that come to them.
But after today, I saw on Yu Fan's MSN, the word "Skins".

SOURCE: http://www.webtvwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/skins-logo.jpg

Skins is a British show about a group of teenagers during the last two years of sixth form or something like that.
It is at the age where we SGreans have JC life! :)

The show talks about many teenager things!
Like drugs (LOTS OF THEM), death, sex, peer pressure, jealousy, homosexuality, personality disorders, make-believe friends and many more.
It brings out many personalities of friends we have and people we will meet.

This show is really AWESOME and SUPERB!
The plot is very creative and very substantial.
It's not like shows which leave you hanging in the dark, wondering what is going on.

Plus, the actors are all like NEWBIES!
Yes, they've almost no major acting experiences and are very 'freshmen' on TV.
Yet their acting I would say is quite good, and not horrible like so many advertisements you see on TV nowadays.

Another thumbs-up: the lines are very witty.
You know whenever there was this witty line that really cracked me up, I would pull the video thing backwards, and watch that scene again and again and again and again.
Even my sister finds them very funny when she watched with me!

However, DO NOT WATCH WITH YOUR PARENTS AROUND (duh!).
Because almost every episode will expose the whole naked bodies of people of both genders.
Except the private parts.
But the chests are the all-for-shows in all of the four seasons.

Seriously?

What I think is that you should watch Skins because it's an original show itself.
I support creativity actually so anything new, I'm in for it!
Plus, amazing plots and realistic storylines give this show a sense of credibility.

But suck it, there was no Season 3 Episode 10 (Finale of S3) of the show.
So I wouldn't wanna continue with Season 4. I don't like to jump episodes.
It's like if I missed an episode of Lost, Fringe, whatevers, I would not watch the next episode.
It's sad yeah, but I don't like cut storylines.
___________________________________________________

So I shall go now world!
I shall just sit down in here, as it revolves round and round and round...

A Cinema Of Imagination

2010-07-02T11:13:00.008+08:00

Okay, hooray everybody!
The holidays are almost over for us :D
For those who don't know, CHS Sec 4 people have an extra week of holidays!
But hey - we had PRELIMS in the middle of your holidays alright.

However, this extra week of holiday is the BEST because you get to do things where all the other people are still in school!!! :D:D:D:D::D:D:D:D::DD
I'm talking about empty arcades, empty McDonalds, empty buffet areas (which was not the case, explaining later), and the whole cinema to yourself (:
Quite frankly, it DOES happen.

Okay so today, I shall blog about what happened during this past week, starting from the day when our exams ended.

The Day Exam Ended
Hooray. Physics ended.
I was so cold I wanted to chiong out of the doors.

Okay anyway, I met up with Ashley and Gerald Teng, my CMC Junior, and Rochelle and went to eat at Pastamania's.
We were going to watch Toy Story 3 later on at GV Junction 8.

Okay so anyway, after pasta we had ICE CREAM at Swensen's!
Sounds expensive, but it turns out they have this special students discount thing going on.

It costs $9.80++ for 2 sundaes!
By sundaes, I don't mean small cones.
I mean those giant cups you actually eat ice cream with at Swensen's.
So I shared this cookies & cream sundae with Ashley while Rochelle ate with Gerald.
Okay honestly, I used to think Swensen's cost like $16 for a simple ice cream.
Turns out, it could get a lot cheaper.

So when the time struck, we went to watch Toy Story 3.

Source: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/toy_story_3/pictures/21.php#highlighted_picture

(WARNING!: Might contain spoilers!)
Toy Story 3 is an amazing adventure following Woody & Buzz and their other pals.
This time, their child Andy, who has grown up, was going to college.
And you don't really see any college boys playing with Power Rangers or Barbie toys, do you?

So, the toys were somehow transported to this kindergarten thing.
There, they meet more toys! However, the other toys didn't like Woody as they were new toys.
So they passed them on to the rowdier batch of younger kids.

The younger kids terrorised Woody and his pals, leaving them torn, tattered, and often, with broken limbs.
So it was up to Escape Plan 101 to bring them out of the place and return to Andy.

This movie is GREAT!
I'll rate it a high 9.5/10 stars if you ask me.
It is rated 99% on RottenTomatoes, and an average rating of 8.8/10.

Toy Story 3 isn't like any other kiddy shows, or boring movies.
In fact, it's packed with so much action and comedy, it's hard to not laugh.

There was this scene at the incinerator, where I almost cried.
Of course, I wasn't going to cry in front of 2 girls so I didn't.

Well, you guys should catch TS3 before it disappears from cinemas!
It's an amazing experience and a wonderful show.
And it is NOT a children's show.

Believing Toy Story 3 is a kiddy show is as good as believing Ken is a girl's toy.

I watched She's Out Of My League with Yu Fan on Monday.

This is quite a humorous show, but with most of its jokes already available on its trailer.
Written in a classic girl-meets-boy-by-incident script, the show is rather expected.

Half the time, I was thinking, "Is that guy from Tropic Thunder? Is that guy from the Sorcerer's Apprentice advertisement which I just saw earlier?"
Turns out, HE IS!
(okay I'm not sure about the Sorcerer's Apprentice one and I'm too lazy to check)

So the two met at the airport, where the guy works as a TSA officer, whatever that is.
And he meets this damn hot girl, you get the plot.

I'll rate She's Out Of My League a 7/10 stars.
I thought it had a better process throughout the movie, but turns out it wasn't really that funny.
I thought there were MORE JOKES than shown on the trailer, but turns out, naahhh.

It's NC16 by the way, so it's like the first time I had watched such a movie in a cinema.

Oh by the way, the jokes they had were quite awesome too.
In fact, I quite love a few of the scenes.
But for some of them, they could have gone on faster (:
__________________________________________________

On Wednesday, I went out with Leon, Perry, Joel and Dong Hong for a buffet!
It was a Seoul Garden's buffet.

Originally, our plan was to eat at Ngee Ann City.
But guess what?

Some idiot went to book the whole place.

~~I was quite angry and very disappointed that I wanted~~
Nah, leave it.

Okay so we went to the Bugis one instead.
Still, we had to wait because they were full again. :/
I was very pissed actually.
But we were put on the Waiting List and then we went to iluma to like, look.

At iluma, we went to buy tickets to Knight And Day!
I'll review that movie in a moment.

So, we went to the arcade.
There was this drum game, which is like a Chinese version of Guitar Hero except now you do drums.
Leon is an expert in that game because he kinda win every single battle with us -____-
But it was quite an enjoyable game! :D

Later, the guy called us so we went to have our buffet!
Thank god, we had a few hours worth of buffet and not some idiotic 1 hour only.

There were loads of meat, which me, the carnivorous guy, ate like a lot.
And there was purple Miranda and ice cream to serve.

Honestly, I wasn't THAT full, but I just felt full.
I didn't feel like a bloated bursting pregnant old woman (Quinn, sorry) but I just felt quite okay.

It was fun cooking the meat, because that's not what you actually do during a buffet, right?
Fun, yeah fun.

Source: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/knight_and_day/pictures/1.php#highlighted_picture

So after that, we went to watch Knight And Day at FILMGARDE which is the cinema at iluma.
Oh, that rhymes.

It's a nice movie, but a far stretch from Mission Impossible, trust me.
There's much action for it to be called an action movie, and there's much comedy for it to be comedic as well.

But still, there are some twists in the show, and like some things which do catch you unexpected.

I rate the movie 7.4/10.
Nice, exciting, and with Diaz on serum, the show gets a little bit crazy sometimes.
_____________________________________________________

The last show I watched with Yu Fan:

Source: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/twilight_saga_eclipse/pictures/2.php#highlighted_picture

Eclipse. The Twilight saga.

No, I didn't put so many full stops for a dramatic effect.

The movie is VERY BORING except at the battle part.
I was like, so BORING! Especially at the tent that part.
The show was sooooooooo looooooooong and soooooooooo booooooooring at so many part of its times, I was feeling a bit... bored.

I'd prefer the second installment anytime, actually ):

Still, I'd watch the following sequels, because I believe there's more exciting parts.
HOPEFULLY.

I was also hoping the little girl didn't die ):
What a pity!

I'll rate this movie like a 6.3/10.
Yes, there's Pattinson and Lautner to attract all the female fans.
And probably some males to Stewart?!
But if the fights are longer and much cooler scenes, I'd like this movie more.

Oh yeah and there's Dakota Fanning, honestly my favourite character in the movie right now.

There's this quote I found:

"Girl, just pick the werewolf now so we can all go home."
- Nick Dent, Time Out Sydney

I found that pretty hilarious :D

It Started Out... Not Nice.

2010-06-20T22:49:00.002+08:00

THIS SUCKS!

Exams are like tomorrow and here I am... feeling... rather... stupid.

I mean, I don't think I care much about the results I'm getting for Prelim 2.
But for some weird reason, I'm DAMN AFRAID about what results I get!
A bit contradictory right? But it so fits.

Stupid feeling :/

Okay, and I'm totally not prepared for any of the subjects at all!

English:
- my Situation Writing is as weak as cat on fiddlesticks and the cow jumped over the moon
- only okay with Essay... I think it'll be FUN?!
- comprehension prepared by Mr Heng i heard... :/

E Maths:
- I'm very afraid of the simple interest one!
- quite okay lah... (suddenly I get low marks like prelim 1)

A Maths:
- doesn't understand anything about differentiation, integration... etc.
- whatisgoingonhere?!?!
- sucks.
- understanding the velocity particle thing more!

Physics:
- V = IR
- P = IV
- the only concepts I know for magnetism and electricity
- whatthehell is THAT machine?!
- whatisacathodeosciilocationraywhatisit?

Chemistry:
- confused with alkanes, alkenes, etc.

Biology:
- quite okay lah...
- i hate plant reproduction
- when is it an ovary, ovule or ovum?!
- what is a generative/vegetative/whatever nucleus?

Pure History:
- never read an essay... IMPROVISATION!

Social Studies:
- never read an essay... IMPROVISATION!

Elective Geography:
- honestly... i never flipped a page of human geog :D

So there goes my prelims... as sucky as ever...
I thought I could study with the 1 week break but NOOOOOOO! What did I do instead?

WOLFTEAM.

I had to get to know wolfteam before the exams. Wooooww.... ):
But it's not a bad experience! In fact, I made many friends over Wolfteam!
Like friends who will kick me out of the room because I killed them.
HAR. HAR. HAR.

But it's actually not to blame Wolftema actually...
It's because I've no motivation to study.
And arguments with my family always happen...

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

Alright goodbye people!

RMUNHRC!

2010-06-13T01:16:00.003+08:00

HELLO PEOPLES OF THE UNIVERSE!

I apologise for not blogging so many things ):
So many events nowadays haha but I guess they'll never be documented unless if I have the time that is.

Recently in June, I had many many fun stuff to do :)

Where They Overlap

2010-05-26T20:27:00.001+08:00

Hmmm so school has been so tiring.
Whenever there's a test which has been finished, another comes up.
Thought I can have a break but nope ):

Okay, just a short post kay.
So Vesak Day is coming and I have maths rememdial.

Yay.

That's because I failed my A Maths Calculus test.
I had 8/32 or something like that.
A pretty bad failure LOL!

Then there's HCL Prelim 2 tomorrow.
Very screwed up.
Oh well. Wish me luck.

BYE. (very tired feel like dying right nw)

Airplanes are like miniature Shooting Stars

2010-05-23T21:30:00.002+08:00

HELLO BLOG WORLD! And my blog readers which is probably as good as zilch.

Today is a Sunday, wow, Sunday, which means the weekend has gone.
This week is the last week of term 2.
Which means O Levels are like coming up pretty soon.

Honestly, I'm quite afraid of what the future might be.
Although I used to stare in disbelief at the future (wow you can do that?).
Like these days whenever I sleep, I always dream about the world ending or something like that.
It's pretty scary to have War of the Worlds or Mars Attack really happening.
And I don't think music can solve either problem.

I mean, with so much tragedy and chaos happening in the world recently, it's pretty ominous about the upcoming 2012 year.
Well, if it really happens, good luck to us all.
But well, maybe the Mayaans just got tired from all that carving or whatevertheydos and decided to stop at 2012.

I mean, doing Pass With Distinctions is tiring enough.
Wonder how they felt about recording such stuff!

ANYWAY, I think I might relive my old Dj days, which are like totally fun.
I like sourcing for music, listening to new music and watching music videos.
Like (honestly), the Baby video made me like Justin Bieber (i think that's how you spell his name?)!
'Cos it showed me some pretty cool dances, hmmm nice.

Then there's like the new (new?!) Miley Cyrus's Can't Be Tamed video.
I only like her bird costume. That's all.
But the video make me like the song.
I'm pretty convinced.

BUT PLUSPLUSPLUS, I'm starting to like DEMI LOVATO!
Cos after listening to her La La Land song, which Yi Long introduced to me, I kinda like her!
And I think she's beautiful! HAHAHA! :D

Then I was at McDonald's the other day with Martin, and I heard Selena Gomez's Naturally song.
OH MY GOODNESS, I never knew she was so... LIKE THAT!
Have you seen the video? The i'm-famous-celebrity-Hollywood-loves-me-so-take-my-pictures plot.
Have to admit, she's quite beautiful, but... I don't know. Heh.

SPEAKING OF MUSIC,

Airplanes - B.o.B. feat. Hayley Williams & Eminem

Haha this is a very beautiful song!
And it stars Paramore lead Hayley Williams!
& my favourite toysoldier Eminem (which I spelt his name wrongly earlier, but Brandon corrected me, THANKS!)

Honestly, I didn't know Hayley could sound like that, 'cos I'm very used to her Paramore sound.
Warning, I'm going to digress for a while.

I very love Paramore's songs because ALL OF THEM ARE GREAT!
I first stumbled upon them when I was at YouTube, so I thought of their name being kinda cute, so I checked them out.
Realised, wow, they're actually so good!

Okay end of digression.

Anyway, hmmmmm, RMUN's coming up soon and I'm not ready at all.
Plus I think we're going to have an outing this Friday so I don't know :/
UPDATE ME GUYS!

And to Kit Chong, Teck Lee and Chang Jing who are going to Japan this week, HAVE LOADS OF FUN!
And don't worry about studies too much yet.
As in, ENJOY YOURSELVES and don't get too afraid about Prelim 2.
(Lol I don't know if I'm giving good advice or not -.-)

And to all reading my blog, goodnite!
I gotta run! Will do more updates soon!
Like pictures and this and that.
Smiles! :D

2010-05-20T21:19:00.002+08:00

Yo all!

I'm back ever since like I was dead >1 month away.
I think I'll be posting more regularly since I've stepped down from both CMC and Choir.

So many conflicting emotions about the coming to the end of Secondary 4.
Is it supposed to be good? Or another thing to be sad about?
I don't know, but you know, just gonna live this life.

I was taking my afternoon nap and I dreamt about something.
It was about the end of the world.
I was like migrating to some other country because Singapore (or whatever country I was in) was unsafe or something.

I remembered I was thinking about alien intervention in those days.
I remembered I was scheduled to leave the country I was in on 31 January, I don't know which year.

Honestly, I'm like whaaaaaaaaaaaat on the end of the world.
But the 2012 thing really bodes some kind of huge omen which I'm scarily highly aware of.
Not the usual thing but I'm really afraid if the world ends ):

Okay got to go so BYE!

Mirror, Mirror, On the Wall...

2010-04-12T23:02:00.003+08:00

Okay.
I'm.
Very.
Tired.
):

And I know my blog is like dead so in order to keep it revive a bit, I shall post my compo up heres!
Cos firstly someone is like bugging me to like wanna read my compos (although she doesnt keep her word of showing hers to me... YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!).
And secondly... I just wanna put it up here :D
Well I got HIGH MARKS for it so I'm happy and so I'm proud of this piece of work only so I shall post it.

This time, I got 27/30 for it, the title called "Mirrors".
___________________________________________________________

Mirrors

She rubbed the mirror with her hands, wiping the condensed water droplets on the cold surface of the thin, hard glass. As more of the misty fog was removed from the mirror, she could see her reflection in the mirror. She just stared at the mirror blankly, as if trying to see her composure. She leaned in closely to the mirror, looking at the little blemishes on her face, the little cuts on her face. The wet bloodstain laid carelessly swept down her cheeks, as if in an attempt to mar her beautiful complexion. She dabbed lightly at it with a wet cloth, cleaning it off. However, the bloodstain was stubborn and did not wish to be rubbed off. She rubbed the cloth harder, more vigorously across her face. The stain faded away after a few tries.

"Alice, you stupid girl. You stupid, stupid girl," she whispered softly to herself. In a strange way, her gentle voice seemed to reverberate all over her brains, echoing through her head. She flipped open her hand phone and checked the time. It had been three days since she left home. Three full days since she ran away from home. She could not bear the drama back there. She could not stand her parents bickering with each other and their venting of anger on her. She could not endure such a tough life anymore. This was why she chose to run away. To avoid all sorts of pain which have been hurting her. To get away from the "reality of life" everyone has been talking about. To escape from her parents' altercations.

"You're a stupid woman!"
"You're not better!"
"Shut up! Shut up!"
"I, myself, have a family to feed..."
"What have you done for our family..."
"... useless daughter..."
"... wished I never met you..."
"Keep quiet...!"

Alice stood there in the public toilet, staring at herself. She had been living in the parks and bus stops for the few nights. She was exhausted and her hair was messy. Yes, it was true she was street-smart enough to bathe using public toilets and to find shelter. However, she was very hungry. She could not rely on pieces of sample food from the supermarkets anymore. They were not enough for sustenance.

She looked at herself in the mirror. Then, something caught her eyes. White fluorescent, neon lights shone brightly at her background. She turned back, seeing a small mini-mart. Yes, she could probably "borrow" a bit of food. She will return them back. She has to return home someday after all. Then, she will pay back with money. Yes, it is totally fine. It is just borrowing.

Alice walked towards the mini-mart and opened the glass door. Cold air swept at her and the winds plummeted in her face. Chills ran up and down her spine like electricity. She clutched tightly at her little bag. In the store were just a man and the cashier.

"This would be easy. Relax, Alice, relax," she murmured to herself.

Mustering her fragile courage, Alice sauntered down the food aisle of the store. There were only two aisles and a cashier area in the store. Its cramped space made Alice feel uneasy. She looked up and turned around, locating the cameras. There they were - one was facing the cashier and the other was filming down the aisle. She would have to be discreet about her pickpocketing.

During her little skirmish of espionage, something caught her eye. It was the convex mirror at the corner of the wall. Somehow, she did not look normal. She looked different and distorted. This was not her. This was not what she thought she was. This was not who she knew she was. Alice felt dizzy, her heart palpitated faster and faster. Who was that girl? Why was she staring at me?

Suddenly, a commotion at the cashier interrupted her thoughts. Alice turned around and saw the male shopper holding a knife, pointing it directly at the cashier. He was wearing a hat and dark glasses, keeping his anonymity safe.

"Empty the register! Now! Put all the money in the bag!" the man ordered the cashier. He was obviously oblivious to Alice's prescence as he ignored her.

The cashier opened the register with trembling hands, hurriedly stuffing money into the brown cloth bag. "Hurry! Hurry! Or I'll slit your throat!" the robber shouted at him.

"You don't have to do this, please! I will be fired and never be hired anymore!" the cashier begged for mercy.

"Shut up! Shut up!"
"I have a family to feed! I have a daughter to take care of!"
"Keep quiet! Do I look like I care about your family? You useless bum!"
"Please, you don't have to do this..."
"Shut up! Keep quiet!"
"Oh please..."

Alice slumped to the ground. Somehow, somewhere, she had heard the same lines play all over again. She could not remember where. However, it continued to haunt her mind. The words were like a cacophony of laughter - taunting her, misleading her, confusing her. Her mind was in a whirl. Her brain seemed lax yet contorted and in a jumble. She did not know what was happening. She did not know what to feel. "Stupid! Useless! Idiot! Shut up! Keep quiet!" The words played in her mind all over and over again. Their sounds overlapped each other, making their presence abstract yet known.

Suddenly, in a fit on uncontrolled angst, Alice grabbed a nearby glass bottle and screamed. With much force, she brought it down onto the robber's head. There were screams and shouts everywhere, and a guttural roar emitting all around her. Alice did not know who it came from. All she knew was that she heard it.

The images soon became clearer. The cashier was standing shocked at his place, his pants were light and quick. A man laid lying on the floor in front of Alice, blood leaking from his head. Crimson liquid too oozed out from her hands. In such a state of chaos, everything felt fine.

Alice looked down at the floor, and saw her reflection on the shattered glass of the bottle. Her face was in a state of disorder, a state of stress and pain. Yet, it appeared to look more comfortable over time. Her reflection looked happier as each second ticked by. She was smiling at herself.

Alice quickly stood up and ran back home. She felt liberated from pain, from anguish, from torture. She felt that she had the power to solve her problems, the will to finish what she could do, the strength to endure it all. She felt powerful. She felt confident. She felt happy.

It was three in the morning as Alice snuck into the house. Everything was pitch black and quiet. Alice tiptoed into the toilet and turned on the lights. There, she looked into the mirror. She looked happy. She looked confident. She looked as if she had overcame her problems.

Now, she remembered them. She remembered her different images in different mirrors. Gone were her lost, unhappy, disgruntled reflections. This was the time which Alice felt the best.

Alice smiled at herself in the mirror.

I'll wait for JC to come to talk about GP okay - don't disturb me now about it.

And OMG I just wanna resume my music days like SOON!!!
School's been killing my passion for music and acting already...
Now I feel like being a stuntman in the future. Like so cool! :D
Those people who laugh at this should just DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! :D:D:D:D:D

Plus, I can't keep up with A Maths nowdays...
In the past, it was my sure A1 subject.
Now, wishing to receive a B3 for it seems to be asking too much or something.
I remember Ashley telling me that she loves doing maths assessments because she'll just feel very happy completing them.

I'm dying :/

Okay, tomorrow's crappy day.
I'm TIRED and I feel like committing suicide.

GOODBYES!

And We All Die From Hunger

Heya guys!
It's been another hectic strenuous tiring exhausting fatigue-inducing and all words that mean "tired" week.

BUT IT'S BEEN FUN!

Last week, we had CROSS-COUNTRY on Tuesday!
It was damn fun and exciting because it was the first time I scored a point for Noel throughout my four years :D
I mean, I never got that ticket before!
It's the feeling of when Charlie got his golden ticket... Willy Wonka here I come!

Then after that, 2-7 had a reunion lunch together.
10 people came altogether at Nihon Mura (AGAIN!) :D

I really love 2-7 and really miss it ):
It's the place where we can confide in each other without like betrayal or mass spread and gossip or misunderstood joking.
Seriously, it's a great place to be at :D

Okay, then this week will be another difficult week.
Maybe all the way until end of May or something.

And I still don't understand a single thing about A Maths.

All Over My Head

2010-03-09T22:11:00.002+08:00

Omg...

My friend whom I meet once a week is like going off to another place...
I don't know if she's changing home, or going overseas permanently...
I don't usually have any of this missing feelings for her but now she told me about it, I kinda feel a little of that.
1 month left ):

Okay, I'm just tired and bored so bye -.-

PhySPA = Horrible.
BioSPA = Whatareyoutalkingabout?!?!??!
ChemSPA = TOMORROW! :O

I hope this week ends quickly.
I want Friday to arrive as soon as possible.

Then, I'll prepare my departure from Alice's Wonderland.
Looks good, but it's all rotten inside.

Another Mythology...

2010-03-07T21:36:00.004+08:00

March is here! Haha! :D
It's the best month of the year 'cos... well that's for you to find out! *hints hints*
____________________________________________
Anyway, I'm very very very tireddd about almost everything.
Everyday I wake up with uncertainty that something will crop out again.
Normally, I'd take it with passion, with confidence that all will become better again.
But this time, I think I'd expend all my energy to hide from it instead.

It's bugging me, it's very irritating.
It's a fly on the wall, waiting for the all the wrong times to sap me.

You know sometimes when people think, "Oh, this is easily manageable."
"I can handle it." "It's going to be fun." "Everything will be alright."

Then the next thing you know, the war starts again, you're attacked 13249879851275 times again.

The worst part is when your commander turns out to be working for the enemy.
You're pulled into a trap and you've gotta ask Nicholas Cage to get you out of the labyrinth.
Watch out for minotaurs, they're scary.

Then once you find your way out, you come upon this ~~little~~ giant kingdom where everything is gold.
And you see this person, blessed with riches.
You want to be with him. He'll lead you on to victory and more riches.

Turn round once and he'll touch you.
It's not a normal touch, but it's a soothing touch.
It makes you feel heavy, yet rich and so valuable.
And yet another who falls for Midas's hands.

So you'll be paraded, an exhibit of the victory of others.
You can't move, you're paralysed, you're golden.

On you are led to the auction of the other intricate statues.
You see a few fellow golden mates, all struggling to move.
Then your eyes catch those grey stationary statues.
Made of hard, solid, yet breakable stone.

Medusa's victims.
Under her, all those will become hardened.
Their hearts are stoned, they're immobilised.
So they feel indifferent from what they see.

They're heartless, they're unfeeling.
They don't care what you feel.
They'll just keep living, and under their empty eyes, you'll be transfixed too.
And then they'll turn you into another one of them.

Maybe you'll be saved from one of the gods.
You turn back into human. You're fully alive again.
So how do you defeat Medusa?
And you think, use a mirror.
She'll die from her gory reflection.
Plunge a sword while she's inattentive.

It's your turn, your glory.
A short-termed one.
What are you going to do now?
You can't return back to base, your commander will still be there.

So be the hero.
Be the hero of the other civilians.
You may not be the saviour of the entire kingdom.
But you'll be revered by those who you've served with all kindness and sincerity.
______________________________________

Okay I know all of you don't understand what I'm talking about.
But it's okay, my mind is like in a mythical world.
You won't understand...

Okay, I gotta go ):
Can't wait for March holidays to start soon...
Or for May to end as soon as possible.
For the start of June shall be a happier one (:

2010-03-03T21:45:00.002+08:00

I bought Ke$ha, Katy Perry and Cheryl Cole!
Whoo!
So now I'm broke.

Okay, school is now a bit better.
The moon is waning now.
Gibbous, but full in its own way.

I don't know what else to type -.-

Just *phew* tired.
_____________________________________

I just realised that I haven't had my music days for a quite a time.
You know sometimes I'm very drama one.
'Cos in my head there will be music playing and then it's like I'm in a movie or whatever.
Then do all the weird stuff or playing along with the music.

And I'm going to miss badminton.
Random again ):

OKAY BYE BYE!

Motivational Workshop

2010-02-28T11:36:00.003+08:00

It's SUNDAY!
It's a brand new week hahaha and I don't know why and can't help to feel that the sun today is brand new!

Yesterday was watching Little Miss Sunshine then I fell asleep halfway... too tired!
__________________________________

Anyway, for the past 3 days, most of the Secondary 4s have been participating in a Motivational Workshop held by the High Achievers.
No, it's not a workshop which encourages you to work hard, to tell you how to be the best among all others, or to say that you can fly.
The programme is a series of activities and lessons which teach us how to be the best of ourselves!

I've learnt many interesting things and it's a definitely exciting period of time!
VERY enjoyable!

On the FIRST DAY,
We learnt about enduring success and to conquer our fears.
The things most important to me is that I've learnt how to conquer my own fears and to be truthful and honest to others about what I'm afraid of.
That's because I'm not afraid of sharing my phobias with others.

VISUALISE! That was a power word of the day because by thinking and seeing and believing that you can do something, you can undoubtedly do it!

I've got to say that surfer Bethany Hamilton is a very strong girl.
I'm contented to see what a strong person she is! :D

On the SECOND DAY,
We learnt more about discovering ourselves.
This time, instead of the MBTI (i think it's like that) thing, it's a DISC profiling!

D refers to being choleric. Which is more that one is matter-of-factly (blase) and bases his/her perspectives based on logic.
I refers to being sanguine. This personality is more of the sociable type and is one of the most interested in human beings. Cat out of the bag!
S refers to being phlegmatic. This refers to someone who really really hates changes. However, such a person is usually nice by nature and makes a great friend (such a person is really sympathetic!)
C refers to being melancholic. This refers to the person who actually thinks a lot. They might keep silent for a long time, but in their brains, they're actually processing a LOT a LOT of information.

I'm a I/S personality, so I'm the people-oriented type.
Being a weaker S, I still hate changes.
However, if the change suits me, I'll surely love it!
Haha, I think I'm quite flexible to change anyway AT TIMES.

I'm also a right-brainer.
So I really enjoy diagrams and pictures as they help me visualise better.
Shapes, colours, rhythms, music all help me too!
That explains my music fetish! :P

Plus, I'm a visual person.
This complements being a right-brainer too!

Also on this day, the groups came together and shared our feelings with one another.
It was both a happy and sad moment, yeah, and although a few might believe that there's no such thing as batch spirit, I don't know, but I'mma try to help out anybody (if I can help at all).

Also the people who were brave to go up there, and with so much sincerity, I was quite touched to know that these people are really ones who have heart.

It was quite a touching day.

On the THIRD DAY,
We learnt lots about note-taking and how to peak for our examinations!
Memorising stuff can be actually quite manageable I guess.
Haven't tried it out but I'll try to do it as soon as possible!

After the whole 3-day series, I felt quite reluctant to leave the course.
As usual, like for every single group-gatherings (overseas trips - Italy/China, competitions, etc.), I'll always feel quite happy at the dismissal time.
But when I go home, I know I'll just break down.
Like some innate feeling gone wrong.

And as Coach Yvonne played "Way Back Into Love" during the autography signing session, when I went to Suntec City after the workshop, they were playing it there too.
I think this workshop is really a great one! (:
I think the Coaches are really GREAT people too! They're not like other teachers who'll hide in their shell and tell you things that you should listen to or have already heard.
They do get to know us and really help us.
THANK YOU! :D

Alright, got to go finish my 6+ comprehensions of chinese homework. Then study Physics SPA. Then tonight got dinner outside.
BYEBYE!

Desensitised again ):

2010-02-24T20:26:00.009+08:00

Whoo! What a tiring day today was.
I'm like so tired like a tired person.

Today was an exciting day (or it promised something fun) because we had our NE Journey!
The Secondary 4s went to SAFTI, Singapore Discovery Center and a few places more.
Actually I said "a few places more" was because I can't remember their names.

ANYWAY, for this trip, Mrs Yap and Ms Hua were our teachers-in-charge for our class.
It was so heartening of Mrs Yap to buy those buns for us in the morning!
It was a little "lifebuoy" sustenance because she knew it would be a long, tiring day.
So really really really thank you Mrs Yap! Haha (:

I remembered what Teck Lee and I did as Chairmen last year.
That was to give out a little sweet snacks to our classmates during the NE Journey.

This year, we bought lollipops and wang wang biscuits again!
Haha still everyone loved lollipops more than the wang wang (=
I still haven't eaten mine :P

So this was the fountain thingy in front of the SDC.
It had those little rowing-things for rent I guess. Which was kinda cute.

Okay, so I followed at the back of the class as everyone moved along.
This was my second time to the SDC.
Last time I came here was... P6 or Sec something...

After we were tagged with a tour guide, we headed to tour the area.

I saw this cool aircraft (sorry, my terminology is kinda bad) which looked too sleek to be on display anyway.

Right.

So the bus like travelled across the Officer Cadet School.

I FORGOT THE MOTTO THING!
But there's a picture of the insignia with the scimitar and the torch thing like interlocking yeah.
Very cool right?!

Okay sorry this blog post is like so boring. Zzzzzzzz.... I'll explain more later anyway.

So we walked while the tour guide explained. (OMG THIS BLOG POST TOO MANY ONE SENTENCED-PARAGRAPHS!)

So we went to this 2-storey tower, which is really really high.

Initially, I was like, okay... tall building... hmmm... cool.
But after I was on top, it was DAMN COOLING and DAMN SHUANG!

Just look how it towers over you!

This is a picture of how it feels like tower over everyone for once in your life.

When you descend the tower, you'll just want to go up again.
Okay, I lied. I wanted to take a picture of the rock lion statue thing.

Haha I had no time to take a picture WITH the lion (everyone was running away liaos!).
I then took a photo of Yu Fan and Dylan!
Haha rawr! :DDD
Another tiger-ish's business!

Entered the SDC again to experience some of things there.
Like the robot (I think he's George right?) which last time I remembered, pointed the middle finger to us the last time we been there.
Well, he kinda "reacts" to what we do in a humanly way what so I can't remember when or who, but he pointed middle finger back to us!!!

It was the BOMBZXZXZ and the EPIC WINZ of the trip!

No, we didn't do it this time ('Sec 4 what...') but anyway, I think the glass thing behind him is a one-way mirror so that's how he operates.
Oh well (:

Anyway had some very digestible lunch, yeah, which was kinda fun!
Can't remember why but yeah, it was funny haha!
There was even a Sarpino's there which I didn't eat...
I think my stomach's on a riot.

Okay so had this little talk which was kinda funny too and then we went back to school.

Lol this is so anti-climax.
_________________________________________

The main reason why I'm not typing very cheerfully is because I'm not happy at all.
I'm quite f-reak-ed up about some people and some things.
The thing is: I don't even KNOW these people.

I thought that I could be the different one, the one with a different view of things, the one who doesn't see a type of person differently.
But they just proved to me that they were different in their own ways.
They're uncouth, horrible, insensitive and trust me, I could name a tirade of adjectives here.

I have such a view on them not because of what I faced from them MYSELF, but rather what I've seen and heard from OTHERS!
Witnessing what others say negatively about a person really hurts me because I feel as if I'm being unfair and judgmental all over again.
I can give another chance (second chances still don't work right?) to them... and maybe they'll prove me wrong. Maybe they'll be the good guys I hope they can be.

Another matter is like the pain from all the academic stuff things.
I've been getting many Bs and Cs for Prelims 1 and this is definitely hurting actually.
I don't know... like HELLO careless mistakes are like scribbled all over my scripts.

Okay but actually I can forgive myself (I CAN?!) because I know... something.
Okay now I don't even know what I'm feeling again.

I also want to cry someday soon.
I want to be scolded and kicked around, so I can cry for a few minutes or something.
Because I don't know why, it's like my heart has turned into stone - so hard and so ineffective.
It's like I don't feel anymore, I don't think anymore (yes, I think from my heart too, so stop harrassing with intricate biology concepts).

I might've been foolish, arrogant, obnoxious.
And I don't like this at all.
Sometimes I just wish I can be the guy I was in Secondary 2.
So carefree and so... released.

I didn't care about anything, didn't think about anything, everyday was like a day to look forward to.
I remember the times I just keep smiling and just can't stop.
Now a smile from me can be quite rare as compared to last time.

I don't mind being foolish, being weaker, being chided at, as long as I live and feel and love the life I'm living.
I lived my life. I felt my life. I loved my life.

I really hope I can escape from this madness soon.
Really hope I can actually meet the person who will believe what I'm saying and take it seriously actually.

Alright, bye bye guys!

The Next 15 On The List

2010-02-19T21:34:00.002+08:00

I'm so tired this week!
Even when it's like the CNY and exams are supposed to have ended.
At least I received my FIRST A1 this term :D
Which is Pure History!!!

Haha so happy I got an A1 at LAST.
All my other papers are like Bs and Cs ):
So saddening!
First time so lousy for all my subjects! Even A Maths was done horribly.

Anyway, I think I'm growing older with white hair and thousands of sagging wrinkles CHOI CHOI CHOI touch wood it'll never happen.
I mean if I don't age, then THAT'll definitely be a curious case of Benjamin Button.

I'm feeling so lonely these days too :/
Even when I'm around my friends.
Like something seems to be amiss.
I can't wait for ALL OF THIS to like ENDDD!

It was not what I had expected!
It was NOT what I wanted!
It was at first a great present, but now I seem to be regretting over it ):

Remember "When I Grow Up"?
Then you'll get the meaning of "careful what you wish for 'cos you just might get it".
This is getting BAAADDDDD ):

I'm looking forward to next week though :D
'Cos Wednesday is our NE Journey!
Which HOPEFULLY isn't cramped and horrible and I don't even know where the tour guide is or where my class is kinda thing.
And lunch better be nice! Don't know why these days I've been liking chinese takeaways.

Plus, Thurs to Sat will be our Motivational Workshop!
Hope it's fun too! (((:

Alright, this weekend:
1) I MUST STREET DANCE. After I get my earphones. And I need to oil these rusty gears in mine liao. It's been more than a year...

2) Exercise please -_____- I don't wanna enter NS in like 5 months extra.

3) Finish all my homework! I'll do this on Sunday. Saturday is reserved for fun, excitement and entertainment!

4) Find the stashed love letters which were hidden away from me.

5) Get at least THREE more albums!

6) Find a way to not eat like the following week so can save more $$ and lose weight!

Maybe I should not eat for the two days before every PE lesson so in case if they start to weigh people again, I'll have no more water retention weight! :P
I'll be probably as dead as a cadaver by then.

7) Get more in-tuned when singing.

8) GET BACK MY FALSETTOOOOOO!!! (as dead as a frozen pancake.)

9) Able to like tongue twist well (like Gwen Stefani's The Sweet Escape!).
'Cos I've been left like spoilt milk all over the floor cos you didn'tshuttherefregirator,babythat'swhyi'msocoldwhateveridontrememberthelyrics.

10) GET OUT ALL MY EX-GIRLFRIENDS! Sorry, I'm listening to The Best Damn Thing by Avril now. ":D

11) Fantasize about getting Tree Of Life for my druid in WOW.

12) Hunt for my favourite _____________________________!!!!!!! :O!!!! I don't know where to find it ):

13) Brush up on my A Maths. And my teeth.

14) Find back all the lost music!

15) Do something crazy!!! :DDD

Okay that's all. I'm kinda tired and tomorrow is going to be GREAT!
Cos I say so! :D

1, 2, 3 MORE!

2010-02-16T21:37:00.002+08:00

HEY GUYS I'M BAAAACKKKKKKK FROM THE USA!!! :DDD
It was so totally fun! New York and the others!
I had the time of my life! :D

And I got to meet Anne Hathaway in person!
During her Valentine's Day advertising thing!
SOOO COOOLLLLLL!!!!!!! XDDDDDD

I am lying.

I was in Singapore all along and Hathaway wasn't even at the opening at all.
I think. That was what I read in the newspapers at least.

ANYWAY, today I went out with Leon, Chiu Yang, Shaun Yee and Javier!
We had a buffet at Nihon Mura (spelt correctly right?) and ate so much!
Haha even though it was a short time, it was very fun (:

Now I love vanilla ice cream more!

Also, I've bought 3 new albums!:
- Timbaland (Shock Value 2)
- Ashlee Simpson (Bittersweet World)
- Black Eyed Peas (The E.N.D. DELUXE EDITION)

Haha yay I love Pixie Lott! She's always appearing on my shuffle (:

Okay bye guys!

Happy Chinese New Year

2010-02-15T01:40:00.002+08:00

Okay yay Happy Chinese New Year alls!
It's the Tiger year (reminds me of Mr Teo who came to school on Friday!) :D
Wonder if he was born in the year of the tiger...

Okay so anyway, CNY was quite okay and fun at times.
I don't know why but I kept feeling so weird during the whole day.
Maybe it's because I'm preoccupied with my C5 HCL marks which is like WHAAATTT?!?!?!?
I think it's my letter writing which pulled me down!
And the stupid zong he tian kong which it's normal to get 2/10 anyway.
NOT.

So I've been having my fun too!
Other than the failed attempts of spending your whole day at shopping malls (which aren't even open at all), there are many things to do in the CNY!

For example:
1) Sticking your fingers into the love letters.
For food lovers who are just bored at the same things you eat every year (except bak kua which you must steal everything for yourself!!! :P), you can play the food as long as your relatives don't catch you doing it.

You know how bored I was, so I went into sticking my fingers into love letters and eating them again.
There's of course some of you out there who only stick into the middle finger.
Oh well :D

2) Eating till you're very full.
You just feel like bursting. And then after 10 minutes, you'll eat more.

3) Secretly taking only the abalone in the dish of vegetables.
EVERYONE does it! :D Don't they?
And to make it much conspicuous, they "hide" a giant (or maybe two) pieces of abalone behind like 1 string of vegetable.
Very conspicuous indeed.

4) Eating up all the Ferrero Rochers/chocolates in other people's houses.
Mmmmmmmmmmm.... delicious... I'm in heaven...
Oh crap I grew fat again.

5) Roll your eyeballs all around, staying alert for hongbao-giving relatives.
"OMG! Auntie is giving them out already... act cool and act as if you didn't see anything... here she comes!"
(No seriously, I don't do this...)

6) Talking to your cousins.
The most fun part!

7) Wearing fully black.
"It's the newest fashion! To be lucky must look lucky what..."
DON'T DO THIS.

8) Getting lost to a relative's house.
Always happens :/

9) Keeping quiet and alone in the corner while you watch all the uncles and aunties engaging in a very active talk.
They then speak another language which you can't comprehend at all except when they all start using kn* and kpk*.

10) Forgetting all their names...
You: "HI!!! Hello! I just totally miss you! Happy chinese new year! Gong xi fa cai!"
Actually: "I kinda forgot your name but... happy chinese new year!"

11) Opening red packets in the toilet.
And then checking out which relatives give how much.
Your favourite uncle just gave $2.
(I DON'T DO THIS! In fact, I only open them at like the end of the day? Or week? When I'm free. They're still sealed now.)

12) Lao yu sheng and messing the table.
Very fun! I love to eat yu sheng! Hahahahahhahaa!!! :DDDDDDDDD
Then you take the fish or crunchy bits only.

13) Refusing to eat your relatives' dinner.
"*points at unknown dish* What's THAT?!"
"Oh, that's the new dish I just saw from Martha Stewart/Rachel Ray/Auntie Something. I like mixed steam fish with deep fried prawn tomato sauce. Then I added bits of bak kua for the CNY tradition."

14) Watching Channel 8 and seeing Auntie Lucy again.
You: "OMG! Auntie Lucy is up on there! HAHAHAHA! She's so funny! So embarrassing! *proceeds to imitate the head swerving*"
Uncle: "Teenagers these days..."

15) Lazy to go visit relatives as you're playing computer games.
"Mummy, help me collect hongbao money hor!"

-----------------------------------------------------------

Okay, seriously, I don't do such stuff.
But I'm just exaggerating the truths some people actually do.
Except the part about eating a lot of chocolate...
Now I'm in heaven...

Anyway, good luck to all of you and have a great Happy Chinese New Year!

2010-01-26T20:42:00.002+08:00

Alright it's been another week since I was last here like there she goes again.

I really cannot stand Secondary 4 and I think it's like total disaster because not only am I not understanding my easiest subject (MATHS MATHS MATHS!!!), I think that like my Physics is terribly screwed and Higher Chinese is like waaaaaaay difficult.
But I'm sure everything will be much better when Prelim 1 ends (:

And PURE HISTORY still rocks TTM!
Because with Mr Fernandez, no lesson will be boring at all!
Class is always filled with fun and laughter and loads and loads of information come swarming to ya but you still love it.
I think Pure History was one of the best choices I've made :D

Geog on the other hand is like really weird for me.
Like we're pro.gress.ing. very. slow.ly.
Or maybe that's just the speed.
I don't know, but bleah I still like geog haha!

Then there are the horrible days which will make you feel so sad and dejected.
Like you just feel like whipping out your credit card and buying genuine leather bags in your local Chinatown.

Alright, that's all.
Goodbye! :D

Would You Like To Eat My Birthday Cake?

2010-01-20T20:07:00.002+08:00

Alright, hi guys again.
I'm like online now and I have time to do something while waiting for an inspiration for my english essay comes up to me.
And it's titled "Woman".

It sounds easy to write but to find a very good plot for the story is very difficult.
Like twisting and turning things about.
Since I'm very bored now, I think I'll just type this blog post until I get my ling gan.

And QI ZI DE YOU HUO was like so damn nice today!
Min Xiaoxi like so wanted to break Aili and Qiaobin up, and I've got to say, she's some scheming woman (:O there's the word!).
And now she wants to marry Qiaobin? That part I don't understand.

And speaking of foreign shows (Qi Zi De You Huo's from Korea), I've found, thanks with Yan Shen's help, the Jie Da Huan Xi DVDs!!!
There's this shop in Toa Payoh which sells a lot of Cantonese dramas and I want to rent the whole series!
There's a total of 66 discs of 5 episodes each for Jie Da Huan Xi.
Problem is, each disc costs $3. And that means I'd be spending $200 for everything.
Oh well :/ We'll see what it comes to haha!

Remember last time I mentioned I did some damn bimbotic things for Bio SPA?
I scored 9/20 for that SPA -__________-
And O Level SPA is like Week 9 for Skills 1&2 and of course I do not want to fail!
So I have to buck up.
This week's SPA, I'd have to say, I think I did quite well (:
BETTER than last week's haha!

Okay I have 1h and 15 minutes left to write my essay so ciaos!
Bon voyage, au revoir, zai jian, goodbye hahahahahhahaa!!! :D:D:D:D:D

Just Before Grey

2010-01-14T20:21:00.003+08:00

I just watched Qi Zi De You Huo and it's very nice haha!
Like I think it's better than Goong or any weird Korean drama you see on TV.
I can't type chinese/korean on this computer (like I know how to type Korean in the first place) but I LOVE THIS KOREAN DRAMA!!!

Haha first day of school, talked about it, and realised so many people actually watch it!
LOL!

Anyway, today I realised something: Ignorance is bliss.
Sometimes it's good that you don't know about something and just carry on with life.
Which is why most of the times (or everytime) our country censors news here.
Yeah, but it is for the better. Okay I will not start an essay here about censorship.

Ignorance is your new best friend.

And haha, this weekend is going to be quite busy so I must finish all my homework ASAP!
And study for the teststeststests all coming up soon ):
I am quite surprised myself that I even studied much this time!
Although the studying for the physics test proved futile because I still don't know half of the answers anyway haha!

Thank goodness for small favours.
You know how the tiniest things can escalate into a major burden kinda thing?
Been feeling a lot of heat lately, but still it's quite cool.

Okay I got to go.
I'd like to thank those who've been helping me get along this rocky week too (:
