The freedom that feels so strange

2009-12-10T21:36:00.003+07:00

Hello!

Gosh I haven't been here for so long. I just... read someone's blogpost and decided that its about time I blog again too [though blogging is like no longer in fashion, but i'm a non-conformist ALTHOUGH i have FB, but at least I don't have twitter and I dont play any of the lame FB games] So yes. I am back. And A levels are over. They have been for like almost 3 weeks. I can't believe it. It seems so long ago, yet I have no idea what I've been doing for the past 3 weeks. I mean I've been pretty busy but for the life of me, I don't know how I've filled all the days. Still, I'm not complaining. I've done lots of things I've been wanting to do.. like meeting old friends, going cycling (=D), playing TENNIS after all this time, doing lame things and like, gone clubbing (just for the experience)so, you know, its been fun so far. And I finally have time to daydream as much as i want, which is such a relief. Hahaha.

I really can't stand it when people who really really hated school back when we were still in it now say that they really miss it. Its ok if, you know, you occasionally moaned about school (like who doesn't, man), and about not having a life (cos we really didn't) but like those hardcore people who really hated school and thought it was a complete waste of time... I mean, you're out of it now, hello. So be happy! Its really annoying when you start reminiscing about how great school was and how much you loved it, when you totally did not when you were in it.

I mean, I understand to a certain extent, that it's really weird without school and kind of aimless. Like, I feel it too, it's strange to just be floating around, going out, and pretty much wasting your life. At least school provided some kind of framework but now its all gone and your future is like a big blank space which will remain empty unless you take active action to fill it with something. [this is just for girls] But this is EXACTLY what you wanted when you were in school, so just enjoy it, and fill your future with stuff man. I don't know exactly what i want out of life either, I mean, I have a vague idea, but i'm only 18 so what do I really know right. The only thing i really do know is that I hate feeling aimless and that I hate not doing anything. Based on that its possible to work out stuff too, so yeah, you know. It's 'Time for Miracles' now! Gosh I love that song.

Ok that was like a really long blogpost. And I'm supposed to be finishing my application essay. Hahahaha I totally suck. Thank goodness all the secrecy is over though. It sucked! And btw, MSN is like so annoying, why on earth do people use it?!

2009-11-16T18:48:00.002+07:00

WHY. IS. IT. SO. GREEN. WHY?!!! How on earth do you calibrate your screen? It appears to be a sign that I shouldn't upload photos.

You do amazing things, you know that? And it's not even your fault!

Four more days. FOUR!!! =DDD

A LEVELS

2009-11-06T18:31:00.002+07:00

A LEVELS ARE IN TWO DAYS OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

And what am I doing? I think I'm ona caffiene high, I swear this is NOT GOOOD. HOW CAN I BE HIGH WHEN A LEVELS ARE TWO DAYS AWAY?!!! And i've been high for the past THREE DAYS, WTH IS WRONG WITH ME !!!

And Matthew is such an idiot!!! he wants me to blog about why but I'm not going to, do it YOURSELF, TWIT. You're a big tadpole =DDD

I AM SO SCREWED FOR A's, and btw, being money minded is retarded!!!

I think this is me panicking, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahha

Last Day of School

2009-10-26T17:03:00.002+07:00

Amazing. I cannot believe today was the last day! I actually feel kind of sad =( I realise that TJ's the school I've been in for the longest time - I've never stayed in a school for four whole years. Maybe that's why it feels so strange to be done with it. Though technically there's still A levels. Hahaha. Weird. Suddenly I realised how many things happened in TJ. I think I've a special memory in every single corner of the school, in every single classroom. This sounds so sad. But considering that I spent the majority of my time in the school compound for the past four years, it's quite understandable. (ESPECIALLY LAST YEAR. Last year was CRAZY. Well, and the first half of this year.) Hahaha. And I am a horrible photographer.

2009-10-25T09:46:00.000+07:00

OH MY GOD, SHE'S ENGAGED.

A beautiful world?

2009-10-21T21:34:00.006+07:00

I really wonder sometimes, you know. Whether you "feel what I feel, everytime that you are near."

Do you see that "there's "nothing standing in our way?"

Do you believe that "this love will stand, and never break?"

Have you "never thought this could be (you)"?

Would you "run a thousand miles to be by (my) side?"

And lastly,

Do you feel that "it's a beautiful world" because of me?

I really wonder if that's how you feel. Because you should. But you don't show it. You hardly ever give me what I ask for. Limited resources, unlimited wants - that's your basic rule isn't it? It sucks that you're so damn logical. You have ten million theories but you're also aware that most of the time they fail in the real world. So why do you even bother telling me all about them? It's not like I don't have a ton of other things to remember. I don't know how people survive long term relationships with you. It's frustrating to never have proof of your affection and always stab around in the dark. To take a tiny indication from you that something, whether good or bad, is going to happen, but to never know for sure. Never, until it's too late.

This is what I feel when I look at my economics notes.
The 'you' refers to econs.

Hahahahahha. I think I need to 'have a little patience' and stop listening to Take That songs.

Live in the present =)

2009-10-12T22:02:00.002+07:00

My new philosophy. Well, ok technically, it's always been my philosophy but it's been revived recently. 2 hours ago, in fact, before Sammi called. (after such a long time, haha it was good!)Ironically it was revived by my ipod correctly interpreting my mood and playing 'Que Sera, Sera',which, if you think about it, is certainly the best (and pretty much only) way to live your life. If you don't want to spend all of it worrying about what is to come.

I'm happy =)

Ain't no sense in love

2009-10-06T20:56:00.002+07:00

I'm afraid of the morning
I'm afraid of the light
You should come with a warning
Yeah, you should be wearing a sign
Oh that says you're beautiful trouble
So you better beware
One look and I was in right over my head.

Oh this misery
There's no place on earth I'd rather be.

>Chorus:<
Cos' you're not the one I need
You're just the one that I want
Makes a perfect sense to me
Cos' you're not the one I need
But you're the one that I want
There ain't no sense in love.
Ain't no sense of love

I try to stop myself
So many times
But I keep falling over
I keep crossing the line
Oh the heart of a gypsy and the soul of a stone
It's just a matter of time before you leave me alone.

Oh sweet misery
Fill my heart up and pour it all over me.

>Chorus<

It's not logical
But that's the way I feel
It's not logical
Psychological
It's heaven underneath my skin but it's hell out here
It's hell out here
There's no sense in love

>Chorus<

I know, I post lyrics way too often. But I totally love Take That. And these lyrics are really clever (especially the bolded parts)Plus like, there really isn't any sense in it. Something 'The Ugly Truth' explains only too clearly. Haha.

Anyway I totally understand why Stalin implemented the Berlin Blockade. And similarly, I know why it failed. Airlifts are so effective. But you know, even if the USSR had blocked the sky, there would be loopholes somewhere. So some form of supplies would always have been able to enter West Berlin, no question. It's impossible to block anything out completely. And instead of solving the problem, it caused the USSR many many more, with the official outbreak of the Cold War. A prime example of how we should learn from history. Also a prime example of how we don't.

I know the blockade part seems like it's totally random but it's really not. And it's not cos I've been mugging too much either ok! There's only one person who understands what on earth I'm talking about, and I don't think the person's gonna read this. Hahahahahaha, which again, means there "ain't no sense" in it.

2009-10-02T11:59:00.002+07:00

WHY IS THE SKY WHITE AGAIN, WHY WHY WHY!!! I think that place is cursed for me! ARGH!

Btw, prelims are over, inglorious basterds is hilarious and the ugly truth is indeed ugly. Oh, and kboxing is really fun. Haha. Yay!

Persuasion

2009-09-28T20:00:00.002+07:00

I think my persuasion skills are improving =) I managed to convince two people (who, btw, are normally insanely difficult to convince of anything they don't initially agree with) to listen to me today. HAHAHA. Matthew doesn't want to admit that I did it though. Whoops =X Though how he wants to deny it is beyond me, cos the facts point the other way. Haha. It's easy to stage accidents though. =P And anyway I think he had a ball of a time annoying me.

Well yeah. I feel like prelims should be over. Why is this silly paper so far away from the rest? Why do I feel like I should mug for it but at the same time there's like not much you can actually study? And WHY can't this paper be either history paper? WHY!

Oh, and the Orchard Ion is cool okay. Like seriously. Hahaha so is Peninsular Plaza [NO i am not a geek, and it's not just cool cos Cathay photos is in there either. And I don't particularily like that branch anyway] Peninsular has other uses okay =) And OMG yes I also convinced Denise to camwhore. UNBELIEVABLE!

Maybe I should go read 'Persuasion' by Jane Austen. LOL.

By the way, I'd just like to say thanks to Pak for being so encouraging during this period. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! You don't know how much it means to me =D

2009-09-16T15:39:00.002+07:00

I wonder whether it is ever possible to actually feel prepared for an exam.

Coffee Bean rocks yo.

2009-09-12T22:40:00.000+07:00

"If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere" - Vincent Van Gogh

He's a brilliant man. But he lived in Europe. I agree that there's beauty everywhere, but I think even he would find it difficult to find beauty in Changi a few years from now. Surely even he would not find 'Asia's greatest motorcar-racing-hub' particularly beautiful. I've no problem with the fact that we want to develop and raise our international prestige. Why car racing, though? Isn't the F1 night race enough? Who in their right mind would prefer racing around Changi than, say, in France for example, where the culture is really inherant? It's not like the car racing culture here is particularly big. I remember them saying last time that the area would be used for kite flying. Hahaha. Why that area? =(

Coffee Bean

2009-09-12T17:11:00.001+07:00

It's really interesting to observe people at coffee bean. Actually right, it's just that every day there will be at least one interesting pair/group of people. Over the past week Matthew and I have had lots of strange encounters with couples, especially - really makes you question people these days. The way some of them behave is either really disturbing or very cute. But the guy and the two girls yesterday was definately the funniest. The way they jumped from topic to topic was totally amazing! [Matt wants me to inject that he actually correctly predicted the order of the topics the guy was going to cover. Which was incredible too, btw] And the singing adults were hilarious too. Haha. I'd love to just sit there the whole day and analyse the situations, but unfortunately history keeps calling, though supposedly its in the past.

2009-09-06T13:46:00.004+07:00

I HAVE THE MOST AMAZING FRIENDS AND FAMILY EVER!!! =D

(I would make it bigger and brighter but blogger is being idiotic)

2009-09-05T11:02:00.001+07:00

Xiu and Sammi are hilarious!!! And they're so sweet!!!

Curse of technology

2009-09-02T20:54:00.001+07:00

I hate my internet. It's so distracting =( I also hate my phone. Cos when there are no messages, I waste time wondering why, and when there are I waste time replying them. And the minute I put my phone away, I suddenly become Ms Popular. Haha. Why am I on blogger now?

Btw, lunch was totally hilarious today. Esti's never going to live it down =P

I WILL BE SO HAPPY WHEN THIS DAMNED CONSOLIDATION IS OVER! OVER! OVER! ARGH!!!

SUCH A HAPPY SONG OMG I LOVE IT!!!

Pre-exam blues

2009-08-30T18:32:00.001+07:00

It's just about the only bright spot at the moment. At least the only true one. I swear, without this I've no idea where I would be. The theories are all wrong haha. Except for the one on scarcity. Geez, its like way too rare.

I know we're supposed to be optimistic and happy and all - no one likes a person who's constantly whining/depressed/sad, but come on, isn't everyone occasionally down? Don't try to tell me you weren't down when you were studying your life away. I just watched 'Yes Man' yesterday, and I know it's stupid to actually try to learn something from a movie with Jim Carrey in it, but I think that the underlying principle of that movie is totally true. And what am I doing? Essentially I'm being forced to say 'No' to almost everything right now to lock myself up at home or in starbucks to stare at notes/computer screen. What a pity. By the way, i hereby swear that I'm going out to shoot sometime this week, by the 6th of September. ARGH!

Anyway it's great how 05/08 is trying to do new stuff everyday to keep ourselves happy. It's fun to watch though like, it keeps getting ruined becuase someone will mention either the dreaded P or A word. Hahaha. =)

Ah well. It starts tomorrow.

2009-08-24T21:43:00.003+07:00

Why is it such a bad thing that I didn't go? Why? Why?!!! WHY?!!!! ARGH!

Though I'm honoured, of course, that I was so greatly missed. HAHAHA. Matt and Denise refuse to admit it, but everyone else does =P *hint hint*

2009-08-21T20:11:00.000+07:00

The little Terror has left.

But the big one is still lurking.

And the biggest one is approaching.

2009-08-18T14:22:00.002+07:00

It is at times like this when it's seriously helpful to have a crush on someone who's in close proximity to you everyday. Clearly people's lives are being brightened up by this, since there is pretty much nothing else that's fun anyway. The days are just like flowing into one another, basically the same thing happens everyday so there's like really nothing exciting.

I'm just relaly bored right now, and its happening right in front of eyes so yes, that's why I'm blogging now. Lol.

I want to watch Up!!!

2009-08-08T14:17:00.000+07:00

Verse two:

I think it's because I'm clumsy
I try not to talk too loud
Maybe it's because I'm crazy
I try not to act too proud

They only hit until you cry
After that you don't ask why
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore

So sad, omg. I love this song, but it makes me want to cry everytime I hear it.

2009-08-05T21:05:00.001+07:00

ARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! My tolerance level seems to have gone down like MASSIVELY. It's really bad, this is crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm going to emigrate. ARGH!!!

LOL, how apt that SOS should start playing now.

2009-08-03T20:59:00.000+07:00

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA omg i just re-watched 2007's Valentines Day videos after like a really long time. They're totally hilarious - I'm like crying now - I can't believe we used to have such good times in school =D

Though, you know, observing Matthew, Esti and Xiu together is very funny too.

And why is blogger's new format so weird?!!!

2009-07-28T17:08:00.000+07:00

Consolidating history is taking me foreverrrrrrrrrrrrr... why why why did i take this subject?!! ARGH

What about now?

2009-07-27T21:49:00.000+07:00

Shadows fill an empty heart
As love is fading,
From all the things that we are
But are not saying.
Can we see beyond the scars
And make it to the dawn?

Change the colors of the sky.
And open up to
The ways you made me feel alive,
The ways I loved you.
For all the things that never died,
To make it through the night,
Love will find you.

What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it's too late,
What about now?

The sun is breaking in your eyes
To start a new day.
This broken heart can still survive
With a touch of your grace.
Shadows fade into the light.
I am by your side,
Where love will find you.

What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love had never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it's too late,
What about now?

Now that we're here,
Now that we've come this far,
Just hold on.
There is nothing to fear,
For I am right beside you.
For all my life,
I am yours.

What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love had never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?

What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love had never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it's too late,
Baby, before it's too late,
Baby, before it's too late,
What about now?

- Chris Daughtry

I'm totally addicted to this song =) It's very fitting somehow, why can't we just live life now, before it's too late. You'd never know, would you? I'm so scared for some reason. And no, it's not the A levels, though yes, they are very scary too.

What's wrong with this world?

2009-07-14T20:59:00.002+07:00

No humanity. None, I tell you. I don't believe it. To think I tried to delude myself into thinking that maybe I was wrong, that maybe my first impression was biased. But no. Three clear incidents within weeks of each other. This is not normal. The description is totally laughable. If it were funny to begin with.

Good thing ECP was great today. Haha Singapore has extremely stupid wild boars.

Love Will FInd a Way

2009-07-11T12:49:00.004+07:00

In a perfect world
One we've never known
We would never need to face the world alone

They can have the world
We'll create our own
I may not be brave or strong or smart
But some where in my secret heart

I know
Love will find a way
Any where we go
I'm home
If you are there beside me

Like dark turning into day
Some how we'll come through
Now that I've found you
Love will find a way

I was so afraid
Now I realize
Love is never wrong
And so it never dies

There's a perfect world
Shining in your eyes

And if only they could feel it too
The happiness I feel with you

They'd know
Love will find a way
Any where we go
we're home
If we are there together

Like dark turning into day
Some how we'll come through
Now that I've found you
Love will find a way

I know love will find a way

- The Lion King, Simba's Pride

I'm totally in love with this song now, because we played it yesterday during the handover. It's so sweet. Speaking of the handover, I think it finally sunk in that it's over, after 3 and a half years. It's incredible.

HAHAHA.

Jill Mansell is hilarious, but I wish she wouldn't always kill someone in her novels. It's so tragic everytime.

Down the Nile - Rosemary Mahoney

2009-07-07T19:31:00.005+07:00

"I felt a surge of solemn happiness that reached out towards what I was seeing and I thanked God in my heart for making me capable of such joy: I felt fortunate at the thought, and yet it seemed to me as though I was thinking of nothing: it seemed to me a sensuous pleasure that pervaded my entire being."

- Gustave Flaubert

It's much too rare nowadays - the feeling of unbridled joy, of just being unbelievably happy simply the way you are. Those are the moments where you want nothing more than for them to last a lifetime, where for once in your life, you aren't longing for something you don't have, but are simply enjoying being there at that very moment. But it's more than that - what makes it so special is that you're consciously aware that you have hardly ever been happier than you are in that place, that time you are currently in, and you know it can't go on forever, so you really cherish those few seconds.

"People were always conjuring up a wall and telling you to stay on your side of it. More often than not, the wall was false, a cliche, an inherited and unexamined stock response to the world."

-Rosemary Mahoney

The Story

2009-07-07T10:02:00.003+07:00

I'm so happy they FINALLY fell in love! So CUTE! Considering it started like two years ago, and is supposed to be a romance, it really took long enough. Yay! =)

And Transformers 2 is good okay. Although all the clashing metal and many fights are a bit confusing. I think you have to watch it more than once to really understand it man.

I'm officially crazy!

I THINK I'VE GONE NUTS!!!!!!!!! AND IT'S ALL MATTHEWS FAULT!!!!

It is not normal to laugh for so long in the shower okay. I think i just set a record. HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA the joke was freaking funny. Or maybe history has driven me crazy. So therefore, to answer today's GP question, we learn from history that we learn nothing from history because it drives us crazy instead. YAY!!!!!

A Blistered Kind of Love -Angela and Duffy Ballard

2009-06-18T08:57:00.003+07:00

"John Gray, PhD, that noted logican of love, would recognise this as a classic case of men and women failing to communicate. "Most couples start out arguing about one thing," says Gray, "and within five minutes, they are arguing about the way they are arguing." How true. I didn't really care whether Angela kissed a slug or not, but I was angry that she wouldn't even consider it."

Can I just emphasize just how true this is? It is seriously dumb. And it doesn't only happen between couples, though from what I've seen, its more overt in their case i guess.

"Ironically, according to Gray, intimacy aggravates conflict. The more intimate we are, the more difficult it is to listen to one anothers opinions without reacting to emotions instead. Automatic defenses come up to protect us from feeling that our partnes disrespect or disapproval is deserved. and so, 'Even if we agree with their point of view, we may stubbornly persist in arguing with them.' Absolutely right!"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA omg lol.

Well the book is really good. I want to go backpacking. Now! =(

2009-06-16T22:53:00.001+07:00

I LOVE CANON IN D!!!!!!!!!!

But the stupid That CD Shop ppl keep cutting it off halfway =(

Camp!

2009-06-15T19:43:00.003+07:00

It is seriously not normal to sign into facebook after 24 hours and have 99 new updates okay. Hahaha. It's cos of the camps. Infocomm camp was pretty fun, but really tiring. Hell training and the wet games totally rocked =D Cold water is awesome!! The nightwalk was pretty fun too, esp cos Denise said unimaginable things. HAHAHA she's been totally influenced! And the candle game was really lame. Shrieking is the best way to win lol.

TjcAps camp was great too - again, the candle game was really lame, but we won so who cares? And the dirty games the next morn were totally disgusting! Esp the egg thing. I have a phobia of raw eggs now man. And dragonfruit. Ugh!! Btw, ntu tutorial rooms are seriously cold.

It sucks to be back in reality again, with jcts less than two weeks away. =( And it is such a weird feeling to have stepped down. It's like finally sinking in. Oh well. Happy thoughts!

I just went on a movie marathon today. I love jackie chan and chris tucker! And btw, 'He's just not that into you' is an extremely strange movie lah. Not all men are sex-obsessed, hello. Why is it that in movies they always seem to be?

Romance

2009-06-07T12:38:00.002+07:00

My MSN conversation with Winston:

Me: Aiyoh
: Ure super unromantic can.

Winston: haha
: sry lah times have changed
: Its the girls turn to be romantic 4 e guys

LOL I think so too. Boon lay is a cool place =D

Burnt

2009-06-02T20:30:00.003+07:00

Ahhh omg I'm completely burnt! Yes, okay, I know I look like a lobster. And these bites are killing me omg. I hate the sun now =( It is completely beyond me why people go and lie down at the beach in a bikini to tan when you get can get burnt so easily. Geez. I now know what vampires feel like whenever they're under the sun. Lol yeah Matthew, I totally empathize with you =P And btw, you are very fun to tease. I can't believe I stopped halfway today!!

The Garden

2009-05-31T19:46:00.001+07:00

And the fishermen came back across the water
And the people started running in the park
And the city stopped, as I held you in my arms
We could hear the sound of sirens all around us
And the scent of burning oil was in the air
And the music played
And it felt so good to hear

This is the life we've been given
So open your mind and start living
We can play a part if we only start believing

There's a stranger on the hill and he is speaking
As the tear from every cloud begin to fall
For one moment then, we understood it all

Everyone, everyone, can you hear the soldiers coming
Everyone, everyone, every man and every women
We all fall, in the end we're just miracles of matter
So come on, let me love you

This is the life we've been given
So open your mind and start living
We can play a part if we only start believing
This is the life we've been given
So open your heart and start loving
We can make a start if we only learn to listen

Then the crowd began to head for the horizon
A million people walking back to work
But you and me, we just lay down in the garden
Yeah you and me, we just lay down in the garden

This is the life we've been given
So open your heart and start loving
We can make a start if we only learn to listen

You and me, we just lay down in the garden
Yeah, the garden

-Take That-

Holidays! (Or are they?)

2009-05-30T22:52:00.003+07:00

The last week of Sem 1 was by far the best this year man, thanks to everyone who made it fun =D (except for you, Denise, because you will just say that i'm not welcome, therefore i'm not thanking you =P) I lhaven't gone high so many times in a week for ages! No wonder it was so exhausting. Maybe it was just the thought of the looming holidays that made everyone loosen up. Not that they really are holidays, nor is anyone really in the holidaying mood I think. But still, just the thought is alluring, which proves just how sad our lives have become. Haha.

Anyway I shot my last event (forever, I hope, because I'm not doing event photography again)today, and it feels incredibly weird to think that after four whole years I will never again have to do this again. Completely unbelievable. I don't even know if it's a good or a bad thing. Taking down the exhibition was seriously weird too. Well anyway it's not over yet, and this i sthe part I've been looking forward too ever since last june. Hahaha =D

Oh look, it's now one day to june. Supposedly this is the month where we'll change our attitude completely and start focusing properly. Well we shall see. It appears though, that people, instead of doing that, are adding more distractions to their lives. Well we're 18 after all. What do you expect?

Laughing = exercise^2

2009-05-26T21:38:00.002+07:00

I don't think I've laughed so much in one day for a long long time. Not even that day we went to watch Wolverine. Hahaha it was really amusing though. Matthew's hilarious, seriously. Your reaction was priceless =P And I've never had so much fun doing math lol, the whole thing was ultra retarded.

By the way it is a very very bad idea to drink coffee titled 'Voltage - (extreme coffee)' when you're already partially crazy and half high. Especially a huge cup of it. Hehehe.

WO(MEN)

2009-05-17T16:09:00.002+07:00

"Kuwaiti women win parliament seats for the first time in the Gulf Arab state's history"

Omg. YES!!!

2009-05-13T22:40:00.002+07:00

Argh I just wanted to sink into the floor and hide. Omg, talk about embarassing. And it turned out fine in the end what. Geez. Just my luck man.

Heat

2009-05-11T19:24:00.003+07:00

Do you feel the heat? The temperature's rising. I thought it already hit the top but no, it's getting hotter.. and hotter.. and hotter.. It's like even right after I cool myself down, all I have to do is look out, and I start sweating again. I guess it's global warming right, cos we're destroying the environment. In all aspects.

On a completely unrelated note, I now have a swimsuit outline tattooed on my back, after spending 20 mins in the pool. This weather is unbearable. What is up with the sun man!

Haha Taboo is fun =D

Wolverine =D

2009-05-02T09:21:00.002+07:00

This is the first movie where I laughed throughout literally all the fight scenes. Either at the actual fight or at Sammi making strange noises beside me. Haha! Not that its not a good movie, it is actually, but for some reason the fight scenes were just hilarious.

Well anyway that wasn't the only thing I laughed at. Hahaha Denise totally got scammed, and her reaction was hilarious! =D Btw Denise, I was laughing at that on the way home and ppl thought I was crazy lol. You confused me wayyy too much!!! Yeah and Denise and Weixin are so cute. HAHAHA. Okay anyway it was totally fun, we shld do that more often!! Argh!

2009-04-28T21:20:00.002+07:00

It's people like that the club needs. Why aren't there more of them?

Gosh I can totally empathize with Faye. Haha.

=_=

2009-04-23T23:30:00.001+07:00

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

9th April

2009-04-10T11:44:00.002+07:00

It's officially my lucky day =D Well done Spamonis, we totally rock!!! I still can't quite believe it..well, everything really paid off =) Well done TJTT too, omg that was an incredible match! YAY top 4 =DDD

And fine, I admit that Fish & Co rocks. Hahahaha =D

Crush!

2009-04-07T21:06:00.002+07:00

DAVID ARCHULETA AHHH OMG HE'S SO CUTE!!!

It was totally worth going for. He seriously ROCKS live! And he's á little to not over' us! HAHA omg he's actually in Singapore. Unbelievable!

Beautiful World - Take That

2009-04-06T18:41:00.001+07:00

I love this song =)

The sun will shine, and we will see
There's nothing standing in our way
Love will stand and never break
Never thought this could be me
Do you feel what I feel?
Everytime that you are near
It's a beautiful worldA beautiful world

2009-04-06T18:23:00.003+07:00

Have you ever noticed that sometimes when you tell one particular person something that you can't tell anyone else that thing all you ever end up talking about with that particular person? It really seems to happen quite often. It kind of sucks. I'm not hinting that its happening now - this is something I've noticed a long time ago. But if I had blogged about it then it would've been pretty obvious what I was referring to.

Break today was really fun =D I made Denise laugh till she cried! HAHAHA and the best part is that I don't even remember why. School is fun when such things happen =)All your fault, Denise!

Term Two

2009-03-30T20:40:00.002+07:00

Gosh this year is passing really fast. I can't believe this is my fourth year in TJ & it's slowly coming to an end. It just struck me that in a couple of months I will be an ex-member of photog (for example), after like four years. Haha. I can't help thinking that its mostly a good thing that many things will come to an end soon. Four years is a long time. But I still didn't want this term to start =(

"When you're alone
And life is making you lonely,
You can always go downtown
When you've got worries,
All the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know, downtown"
- Downtown, Petula Clark

I couldn't disagree more. Haha I think the beach is a better place =)

I'm like totally high on Taylor Swift btw. Her songs really need time to grow on you man.

2009-03-24T16:37:00.002+07:00

I really wonder whether exam fatigue has lasting consequences. It must, right? I also seriously wonder how I'm going to survive the A levels.

Oh well. 'Que sera, sera' right?

MSN at Midnight

2009-03-20T00:46:00.002+07:00

Very amusing.

Conversation 1:
So when I say I love you, I'll mean it forever and ever says:
aiyah forget it

So when I say I love you, I'll mean it forever and ever says:
who wants u in the club anyway

So when I say I love you, I'll mean it forever and ever says:
after u boke my heart

So when I say I love you, I'll mean it forever and ever says:
*broke

ζήτα - As you can see, I can't be bothered about the CTs. says:
oh so sad

ζήτα - As you can see, I can't be bothered about the CTs. says:
you need glue?

Conversation 2:

So when I say I love you, I'll mean it forever and ever says:
u suck u stoner

So when I say I love you, I'll mean it forever and ever says:
wheee i'm like so happy

\\..dENisE..// says:
it makes no sense lahh

\\..dENisE..// says:
whyyyy?

\\..dENisE..// says:
you suck you piece of rock

Can someone please teach me how to respond to this kind of stuff?

2009-03-15T22:38:00.001+07:00

I DON'T FREAKING UNDERSTAND. GRRRRR.

And I really really really don't want to go. This sense of propriety is messing up my mind.

Blading in the rain is fun =D

"So when I say I love you, I'll mean it forever and ever"

2009-03-10T22:42:00.003+07:00

Esti wonders why my msn nickname is so mushy. Hmmm, I kind of agree with her - why is it that the mushy lyrics in songs are always the best?

Tricks of time

2009-03-09T18:50:00.004+07:00

Sometimes I wish time would just stop and that one moment would last forever. Sometimes it just goes past so fast that we don't even notice until it's over. And as time passes and memories fade, it becomes more and more difficult to bring back the feeling you experience just then, in that one particular moment. It sucks that its those few seconds that just rush past you like that that we'll remember for the rest of our lives. I really do believe that we live for those moments of pure joy, happiness and unrestricted love.

That was what I concluded when I saw the look of supreme ecstacy on Denise's face today when she bit into her first piece of sushi. =)

Breathe

2009-03-02T17:58:00.004+07:00

Why is it that young female singers like to call their songs 'Breathe'? Or any artists for that matter? And why are they all so catchy? I still really like Faith Hill's though. And Pak finally agrees with me (like half a year later, lol) =D Michelle Branch rocks too, though her album is like really old. I just rediscovered her recently, and 'Breathe' totally rocks too.

It does not rock because it stones okay. This is such a flawed theory. Denise is LAME(!) but she runs damn fast man =X

2009-02-28T21:29:00.002+07:00

Haha yay =) Sin Yee is so funny. And I officially do not understand history.

2009-02-15T11:43:00.003+07:00

The day I understand them will be a sad day indeed. Because it means I'll have become just like them. I can't believe it, it's like the FOURTH time this year! And the year like, just started. What on earth is wrong with me?

If Today Was Your Last Day

2009-02-04T19:30:00.002+07:00

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day
Tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
If today was your last day

Against the grain should be a way of life
what´s worth the prize is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there´s no second try
So live like you´ll never live it twice
don´t take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day
Tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
[ Find more Lyrics at www.mp3lyrics.org/zLlv ]
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you´re dreamin' of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it´s never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes
'Cause you can´t rewind a moment in this life
Let nothin' stand in your way
Cause the hands of time are never on your side

If today was your last day
Tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?

Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you´re dreamin' of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

- Nickelback

I love this song =))) Just wondering what it is about Orientation that suddenly makes people so much more willing to talk. So weird. And I'm so glad it finally rained today =D

Tabletennis

2009-01-29T21:30:00.002+07:00

I'm so so so glad to be in a sports pdp again. =D

Yes, I am in tabletennis. Stop asking me why.

It's a Bitter Sweet Symphony

2009-01-28T18:03:00.003+07:00

Sometimes I wonder whether I'm just lying to myself. And everybody's just completely fooled. I wish it weren't so hard to tell. It's just so ironic. But it just shows how easily people can be fooled and how little experience we all have with such issues. It's just so so so ironic. She's absolutely right, there are just certain times when you can tell what's real and what's not, and it just totally sucks when you find out it's not. Because if it were then things just wouldn't be the way they are. And I really shouldn't care about all this now, I should just be immune and be happy that there are those very special few people. Some people don't have that after all. So yeah.

On an unrelated note, I'd just like to say that Lincoln has never been more right about something than he was about that. Or maybe he has, I wouldn't know. But he certainly was right. I feel like a calm volcano =D

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony this life'

2009-01-25T23:49:00.001+07:00

"The worst thing about best friends is that they know how to irritate you."

While that's exceedingly true, I'd just like to point out that it's not only best friends who can irritate you, unfortunately.

Preet's in Singapore! =D Gosh, I used to laugh so much. Good times man.

2009-01-19T21:51:00.001+07:00

Libera is so amazing, I swear. I wish the ipod shuffle had the option to put songs on repeat. Locus Iste would just play forever.

One week down...

2009-01-16T23:04:00.003+07:00

Well, the first week of JC2 life is over. I wonder whether all future weeks will feel this long too. They tell us time flies by in J2 but I haven't exactly felt that yet. Just random bits of info:

1. the infocomm club thing is going to be really confusing
2. There's no dance concert this year, like how unlucky can we get?
3. Some very odd conversations and encounters have taken place recently
4. Coffee bean cakes are way cool

Haha yeah. Go green day tomorrow!

2009-01-12T20:12:00.000+07:00

It's so bloody difficult.

Photoshop

2009-01-10T22:51:00.002+07:00

Argh I hate it =( So so much. I think I was right about from the very beginning but it's just so useful... like all technology actually. I really admire those who can resist its lure. I should become a hermit! Haha!

Btw I have no idea how I used to do constructive work till midnight. My brain shuts down at 8pm these days. Sigh. Back to school soon =(

Confusion

2009-01-05T17:14:00.003+07:00

Maybe it's my own fault for making things so complicated. I shouldn't take things to heart so much, should I? Doesn't always happen, just sometimes when I really don't expect it to. Damn, I seriously wish we knew what to do; I wish someone would just invent a guidebook and tell the world exactly how to react, a foolproof method that'll guarantee success. At least it's better than tapping around in the dark, never knowing whether what you say comes across as you mean it.

Wahaha I'm referring to like 3 completely unrelated things in the paragraph above, yet every sentence kinda applies to all 3. Anyway I rediscovered this song recently, from a time before Avril became wrapped up in the pink glossy world. Haha I love it =)

And I don't wanna fall to pieces
I just wanna sit and stare at you.
I don't wanna talk about it
And I don't want a conversation
I just wanna cry in front of you.
I don't wanna talk about it
'Cause I'm in love with you.

2009-01-03T21:19:00.004+07:00

The beginning of a new year is always the time when I forget what I want to blog about, I swear. Well anyway new year was fun =) I hope 2009 stays that way but I doubt it, what with A levels coming and all. I hope it just flies past quickly, but pretty soon I guess I'll be wishing for more time. Maybe sleeping at like, say, 4am will become a normal thing.

Anyway adults are really funny - it's very amusing to listen to them puzzle out why teenagers do certain things. Oddly enough I actually agree with then, I can't comprehend why we do those things, I mean it doesn't logically make any sense. Which then again, is probably why, cos teenagers are like so not logical? Since we're all so confused. (Aida's shirt today was so cute)

Anyway last night was hilarious. And I cannot believe I haven't watched Twilight!

[Edit] Omg I remembered what I was gonna say: That everything is very ironic and full of paradoxes which seriously amuse me sometimes, although it's kinda sad if you think about it.

2008-12-29T22:56:00.002+07:00

I wish you could read my mind. Because then i wouldn't have to say it. And right now I really really want to go back to Tasmania. It's not that god-forsaken. I mean there are rappers out there. Ironically.

Cycling =D

2008-12-14T14:49:00.003+07:00

Hahaha cycling is super fun =) Though I'm like really unfit, i'm not used to it anymore =( It was damn far though. Lol and Weixin chased a plane and lost to it =P She was like a dot in the distance hahaha. And the thing at changi beach park was hilarious omg. Whee okay shooting ice is fun too =D Kay I'm just rambling on here cos i'm waiting for my dad again... if he doesn't hurry up we're going to miss the plane later. Sheesh. I'm going to Tasmania - back on the 26th, don't sms me till then ok!

LOL Sherry just barked. Amazing! And yellow pages is so cool. Ah okay great we can go now. Merry Xmas in advance =)))

2008-12-09T22:57:00.002+07:00

You know the great thing about (most) guys is that they'll always say yes. I don't know why, but they do.

2008-12-07T16:09:00.001+07:00

I hate it. I really, really do, with all my heart.

2008-12-06T21:58:00.001+07:00

And my dad thinks I'm a boring person. Bleagh. But French cafe's are so cute!

Smses

2008-12-05T18:28:00.004+07:00

I'm really lamed out now. I swear I have the lamest friends ever. I was just on my way to popular to get 2B pencils for the SATS (I mean, who even uses them anymore man? People use 2B lead, not pencils. But whatever.) when I got an sms, first from Denise. I replied. Then I got one from Weixin, in response to what I sent Denise. I replied to her. I got my response to what I sent her from Denise. Here's an excerpt:

Me: I'm not at home!
Weixin: HUH! It's apple gardens right?
Me (to weixin): Nope. It's durian park! What's wrong with you?
Denise: I love maclaurins!
Me (to denise): WHAT! No way!
Weixin: Don't you think the maxima and minima curves are so sexy?
Me(to weixin): Lol. I give up! Cya guys next fri =P
Denise: Ok have fun with your sats on sat!
Weixin: Ok have fun with your sats on sat!

Yeah. Great!

(Edit) PS: Did I mention that Bandy and I want to write a book? Yeah: '50 Ways to tell if you've got a good boyfriend.' Which we're totally the best judges of, I'm sure.

2008

2008-12-02T22:50:00.002+07:00

There is something wrong with this year, I swear there is. Everything is just so packed. It's like everyone is just so busy this year, and look at the year itself! The newspapers are filled with disaster stories every day - (at the moment) the US (financial crisis), Mumbai, Thailand. It's really not normal, though I know I'm by far not the right person to judge this, but life certainly seems to be getting more hectic.

And yeah, it wasn't a very good year. Though thinking about it, some pretty unbelievable stuff happened, not all of which was bad. Ah well, I sincerely hope that 2009 will be better. Though with A levels around the corner, I highly doubt it.

Oh, I've been wanting to say this for ages: I really love the Fed-Ex advert! The dog is so cute man.

2008-11-29T22:22:00.001+07:00

Seriously.

The Conrad

2008-11-29T21:57:00.002+07:00

Omg, I can't believe it's over! 2 weeks is like way too short... I woke up at 10 today and jumped out of bed, panicking and thinking I had majorly overslept, only to remember that yesterday was my last day. Sucks man. Well, it was a very enjoyable experience - all the hotel staff are really friendly and nice =) I think we were really lucky to be working in Oscars/room service though, it's the best department =P And we met a lot of -ahem- interesting people... like lots of interns, waiters, chefs, butchers etc... Haha, the last day was especially cool cos we were so busy, incredible man. Anyway, all the things we did were cool, and the Conrad is a great hotel. Top service man! Cafeteria food is good too =) But I swear I HATE GREEN GRAPES OMG I'M NEVER GOING TO SEE THEM THE SAME WAY AGAIN!!!

Anyway I would post pictures but the privacy thing is getting scarier by the minute so yeah, nevermind. But anyway, Ka Wai, Shi Ting, Connie and I had a great time =) Last night was fun too, we discovered new parts of Singapore =D

Ugh it really sucks to have to get back to stuff like SATs and the UN research paper which I'm supposed to be doing now, till I got distracted by blogger =/ Sorry Xiu! Kay I'm gonna go back to it now, but btw, it's so great to be able to walk properly again. I would never survive a broken leg man.

People...

2008-11-19T23:00:00.001+07:00

People are so weird, I swear. I don't understand how we all get along.

VAIO

2008-11-17T19:25:00.004+07:00

I love my new com =DDD

Fyi, slc was okay I guess.. the activities and games were fun but you know. (Or at least Matthew and Hwee Li do) The Conrad rocks though. Must be part of the hotel business that everyone is so friendly =) And omg, if you want to indulge this Christmas (or anytime between today and then) go buy their christmas cakes & cookies. Amazing stuff!

Law of Attraction

2008-11-07T14:16:00.002+07:00

According to the 'Law of Attraction' you get what you think. So if you think of things you want, then they'll eventually come your way. If you think of the things you don't want, they'll also eventually come your way. Because apparently, if you're positive, then you'll attract positive things to yourself. So smile and be happy! =)

Oh and congrats to Hamilton and Obama for winning their respective races. =D Yay!

PW

2008-11-01T21:10:00.002+07:00

YAY OMG OMG PW IS OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Haha I know I'm not supposed to gloat but I'm really really happy its FINALLY over =D

2008-10-20T23:14:00.003+07:00

Let's all scream bloody murder. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. At least I finally have a thumbdrive.

Btw, I actually drew a dog today! Apparently I haven't lost all my former artistic "talent". Haha, and Bugis is really freaky okay.

I want to go live there =) And leave technology far far behind. Especially my handphone. Urgh.

Btw, frogs are really really cute! And green and slimy. HAHAHAHA =P

Facebook

Yes, I finally conformed and got an account of my own. Unbelievable actually. But then how else am I supposed to keep in touch with ppl from germany/america?! Emailing evidently does not work. Well anyway it's quite interesting so far, random ppl man!

Erm anyway, I swear I am ultra retarded- it's kinda unbelievable. I do not understand it okay, seriously. Argh, why am I so dumb? I was attempting to clear my com - got the dreaded blue screen of death twice in a row, so it's rather freaky- and I came across this extract of an msn conversation back when I still saved them manually.

initiative is about the only ting i haf not learnt yet

Okay, I thought he was being patronizing, but you know what, he's right. Taking the initiative to do stuff is the only way things will ever get done. Seriously man.

Our Last Summer

2008-10-08T16:19:00.002+07:00

Paris restaurants
Our last summer
Morning croissants
Living for the day, worries far away
Our last summer
We could laugh and play

It would be nice, wouldn't it? I don't understand what's happening. The youth of today are no longer young are they?

ABBA

2008-10-02T19:37:00.003+07:00

LAY ALL YOUR LOVE ON ME! HAHAHAHAHHAHA omg I LOVE ABBA!!! They're amazing. Like Xiu Qing's mom said, it's amazing how they appeal to people across different generations =DDD

Liberation!

I've seriously never been this happy for exams to be over! I have no idea why, but these were seriously tough and stressful, and there was nothing to look forward to. Argh! Lol anyway they're over now, which is kind of weird because I know I have to do PW but i simply do not have the energy or willpower to start. One day of freedom =)

Yesterday was so much fun though! Sammi, Matthew and I went to watch Mamma Mia... gosh it's absolutely hilarious!! Just watching it made me happy, thank god the cinema was dark so no one could see me absurdly grinning to myself. And Sammi sang along to every song, so I occasionally joined in, especially when it came to Dancin' Queen - that scene in the movie was so happy and jolly! Anyway yeah so it's a really good movie, well, if you like the songs that is. And then I ended up exploring Singapore which was really quite amazing - I had no idea that place existed.

Oh yeah, you know that time I blogged about picking up the phone and calling a random stranger, well it didn't exactly happen like that. But making friends with random nice strangers is fun and oddly relaxing =D

Just once, I wish I could say what I really think. Just once. Sin Yee's recently been talking about lack of privacy on her blog and well, yeah, she's absolutely right. There's no such thing as privacy. So you have no option but to keep things to yourself. What're the odds that a person you'd like to tell would listen and understand anyway? Ah well. Nevermind, at least sometimes it's easier to stay happier this way =)

Yup, and exams are almost over. Yay! German was absolutely ridiculous today though. How on earth do you write an essay on "You are what you eat"? If you agree with that statement, I seriously pity you. I mean physically, you may be made up of proteins, carbohydrates and fats, but please do not tell me that food defines your character and emotions. Though no doubt it has the amazing ability to cheer you up and motivate you =D Well, I can't wait till tuesday. We will perservere! Btw lol, i seriously think exams have an enormous physical effect on people. Despite sleeping at a normal time the whole week I'm utterly exhausted. What's up with that?

Grrr

2008-09-22T21:22:00.005+07:00

My dad just came into my room when I was sitting on my bed surrounded by history notes and probably looking extremely disheveled cos of the fan blowing my hair all over. He took one look at me and was like:

"You're very frustrated with studying, aren't you?"

LOL. What I had just written on my 'End Cold War' notes before he came in:

Bipolarity continued? -But how can that be? USSR wasn't even a bloody superpower anymore, like wth!! It was almost named a third world country in the late 1980's! ARGH!!!

I think he can read my mind.

Panicking

2008-09-22T16:46:00.005+07:00

Exams are like the stupidest things ever to panic about. What the hell is the point?! But we all do, unfortunately. Anyway the best cure is eating ice-cream. Even if it's Magnum or Walls or whatever. No worries, you won't die =)

And thankfully, reading endless pages of notes is always filled with little moments of entertainment -especially econs- where I find random stuff scribbled at the side such as:

"Barney is a dinosaur!" or

"STOP DRAWING DAISIES/FLOWERS ON MY PAPER! =(" (which btw led me to have a laughing fit) or even:

"You can't be bored cos ure sitting next to the all-knowing, wonderful ME!!!" (how I wish the all-knowing part were true!)

So yeah, I'm kept quite entertained - unfortunately none of these add to the knowledge actually required for the subject, ie, econs. So yes, I am SCREWED. I hate this man. Hey, but then, who doesn't?

LOL I just read something I wrote on the 5th of July:

"Omg I can't believe they actually agreed with me the whole time and they never said! We're so retarded ok, I swear."

HAHAHAHA yes, we are so retarded. I am so retarded! LOL! And the Las Ketchup song is too. I love it man, so bouncy and jolly!

A Whole New World:

2008-09-21T18:39:00.000+07:00

Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?

When indeed?

Breathe

2008-09-19T19:39:00.002+07:00

Chorus:

'Cause I can feel you breathe
It's washing over me
Suddenly I'm melting into you
There's nothing left to prove
Baby all we need is just to be
Caught up in the touch
The slow and steady rush
Baby, isn't that the way that love's supposed to be
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe

[Faith Hill]

I just went absolutely crazy over this song. Lol I haven't been so high for no reason for a long time! WHEEEE I think it was that crazy evil smiley bank owner who completely succeeded in taking over the world. LOL and I realised that birds TWITTER!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA omg I'm seriously crazy.

2008-09-19T10:07:00.002+07:00

Lol I was just flipping through my notes on graphs when I came across this little quote:

"Be like a postage stamp -> stick to one thing until you get there!"

One of Mr Ang's lame quotes, during those happy times where he still provided us with little bits of fun in the middle of math lectures. =(

Weirdos

2008-09-18T17:13:00.002+07:00

Haha. Yup, totally.
