SATSATSATSATSATSSAT [Jan. 18th, 2005|11:21 pm]
ive been doing alot to gear myself up 4 e coming SAT. (luckily e guys hav enlisted n e girls r busy working so nobody will tempt me 2 go hav fun hence place my SAT score at risk) whereas many of my frenz r either working or not bothering bout it or both. so i believe e most ironic thing wil be, them getting a better score den me. which will also prove tt its uneccessary 2 prepare 4 e SATs. SAT SAT SAT...its taking over my life now..argh.
hmm wat if i unexpectedly flop again? (...recalls e JUne one where i was confident it'll b e las time taking, will get at LEAST a 1350 BUT it turned out 1290 which i choose 2 believe there'ssome error in marking bcos e 3 timed tests i took prior 2 e actual day got me near 1400 each) arg so here i am having 2 invest 93bucks again (hopefully i wun hav 2 use e word waste) i refuse to belive its gonna b wasted. how can it happen? if it happens im forever gonna believe that effort doesn't pay off.
tts actually not e point. e point is, if i dun see a 14** on feb 8, e possibility of having a school life again dis August will drop from e current 20% to 0.1%. yup, i am totally insecure to e extent that ive promised to treat mr daniel ow to e chocolate buffet again at fullerton if i see an A on my result slip. oh n ms yina too. haha n yes, now ive typed it down here in fact. that 60bucks at stake..and anyone els too u jus hav 2 tell me...yupz. oh i decided not 2 add "or B" in case a miracle happens.
ive lost my train of thoughts suddenly...so tts all 4 now. 10 Real SATs beckons =/

whoa haven updated for a long time again. basically been pretty busy post church camp/malaysia trip. looking back i seem 2 hav a reason to go outta house almost (prob stayed home only one or two days) everyday since i returned frm msia...i actually still hav lotsa things to do...am pissed with myself right now as i got up 4hrs later den supposed to(2pm in stead of 10am can u believe it..argh) n ive planned stuff to do in tt 3hrs(excluding washing up n breakfast) n everything is now pushed back by 3hrs which means ive to forgo some stuff (i reeli wana do all those stuff today!=/) bcos ive to start getting ready to go out by 7pm... therefore dis will jus b a short entry(it wasnt in my list of stuff 2do today but i jus realised i HAVE 2 do a las entry 4 e year)
sigh..actually i dun reeli feel like going to celebrate e new yr wif my frenz after watchnite service at church later tonight.. i kinda cant bring myself to join in e celebrations, be merry when i tink of e hundred thousands of ppl near us who hav 2 cope wif the tragic loss of their loved ones over e new year...n its like its becos we are protected by our neighbouring lands(who are all affected) tt we ''escape virtually unscathed'' from this disaster...how lucky is that.. i noe dis has been said again n again by various ppl but i still wana say that my heart really goes out to all those pple...
alright ive reeli no time for anymore tho i want to..gotta continue tidying up my room! mus finish b4 e new yr...lazy me hav been procrastinating n procrastinating..=P

ok i shall update as i realised i prob wun b able to from monday onwards all e way til 20th n den it'll b reeli outdated which is undesirable. hmm wat do i talk bout 1st..there's actually aLOT..well, wats top of my mind right now is e much anticipated rv-yuhua alumni band concert later!

venue: in e esplanade concert hall / time:nonstop action 3-4pm / repertoire: exciting entertaining pieces wif quality maintained / when: later at 3pm but b there EARLY.like 2pm.if u wana reeli soak in e goodness of it all. as admission is FREE, seats r on 1st come 1st serve basis..P.S. do not fight wif me 4 e most strategic level 2 seats!

so anyone who happen 2 chance on dis on time n haven been into e esplanade to watch a band concert b4, here's a chance not to b missed! n after u watch, i gurantee u'll feel like going for more. haha...=) 2 e band j1s, support ur vice pres! she's performing! i cant wait i cant wait i cant wait i CANT WAIT...rv-yuhua alumni band performances r so nice to watch! in fact i enjoy watching it more then playing in it (had a taste of both b4) tts one of key reasons y i refused 2 b persuaded into playing for dis one...

ok enuf band....talk bout prom i guess..still tink its a waste of money, but its money well wasted! ;) heh does tt make sense? basically everyone looked so pretty n everyone busied themselves wif taking photos..few ppl actually sat thru all e food..tot e food's pretty lousy...if not for e 50bucks facial voucher n tt cute bear, i will complain tt it is not worth 85bucks. n my secret admirer was lucky enuf 2 spot me among e crowd n mustered enough courage 2 ask 4 a photo. haha...ytd i discovered tt this guy's got a crush on me since april 2003! n how did he come 2 notice me? from e bus 105 rides we often shared in e mornings n very very strangely, i nv noticed him b4 (hmm if an ac person also alights at dover to change bus, i'd definitely notice wat..) oh well, tts not e point...e point is im so flattered bcos i always look grouchy, (n as he put it, look like im having an attitude) on morning bus rides to sch n a guy can actually fall for me like tt?? haha......pretty impressed by his persistence. after failing 2 find me in zouk (actually he did but twice i ran away wif mich when i saw him coming) he went asking around 4 my no. n THANK GOD nic asked my permission 1st n din give away my no. blindly...(phew) no cj guy number 2 for me pls..freaked out enuf. in e end i revealed email add outta symphathy..(i believe after having dis crush 4 1.5yrs, e thing one wld like most is a chance 2 talk to her b4 enlisting right..) ok im getting bored of talking bout dis...

as aforementioned, i prob wun b able 2 update frm mon onwards..cos: mon-thur church camp at aloha changi chalet, fri-monday KL-sunway lagoon trip wif roy,dan,sweelan, janice n family. n right after tt my yet another survey job(its easy money!) starts..21-23rd n den it'll b christmas! hope there'll b something fun planned!

ok lastly an announcement to make...if anyone reading dis(hu noes me) is working or has friends working at espirit, please tell me who u are....hehe cos e new range of espirit t-shirts has many designs i'd like 2 own but they're ex...nid someone working there so can get staff discount for me! in e meantime im praying hard tt there will b a 40% storewide like las yr..espirit's my fav label...if anyone thinking of buying X'mas present 4 me or jus feeling rich n wana splurge on frenz...hint hint...hahaaa...

to school. [Sep. 12th, 2004|11:37 pm]
mayb i shouldnt blog too wordy entries. first, it takes ALOT of time. second, ppl aare more reluctant 2 read e entire thing. like an unfinished bedtime story cos e kid fell asleep halfway. oh well watever i'll take a poll wat do u tink?
ok i'll get 2 e point...sch's starting tmr! again......but 2 tink of it, we haven had real sch 4 bout a month already so not tt bad i guess. kinda look 4ward in some sense. the NL, recess, LT3/LT6, chapel!! (finalli.) haha anw dis is short lived enthusiasm...it'll die off very quickly. once e papers come back, and i realise how badly ive fared, and e tchers start making noise, and ive gotta tink bout+carry out a rmugging plan, school will suck.

curiosity is killing. i wana noe how i did..i hope we get all of them back tmr...i dun like e suspense. ppl think im mad 2 tink this way. well to me it seems a natural reaction wat. if something is held back frm u, it makes e urge 2 get it even stronger! (tink othello/iago in tt reverse psycho scene) ok b4 i sleep, tdae i had a great evening. watched thomson big band perform a nice selection of jazzzz at e botanic gardens...together wif mich, her parents n my mum...happy family. started at 5.30 but it was after e sky darkened into night tt i reeli got totally absorbed in e whole atmosphere....bcos when its bright, im inevitably distracted by e many ppl dotted about e big grass patch. but when night falls, e audience bcomes silouhettes so e stage will get all e limelight. i love e night. i love jazz. if i had e chance 2 lie on my back watching e night sky n feeling e night breeze wif light jazz playing in e background everyday, i'll feel like e happiest person in e world. e company of close friends/family wld b a bonus..

i cant believe im going 2 sch tmr. n start on tt routine again...=P oh well at least i had an enjoyable, stress free, fun-filled, satisfying 2 week break=) like i said previously, good things will end.

its 3pm. me n my dad-both of a stubborn nature, are having some kind of competition. 2 see who lasts longer into the night. sounds spastic right? wait wait, i can explain. u see, at 1am, i announced to e living room(deserted except 4 dad reading a book on e sofa) tt i wanted 2 watch e vcd i jus borrowed frm jit. note tt i did ask politely b4, whether he intended 2 hog e tv. however, he replied impatiently tt he wanted 2 read his book den continued wif sum irrelevant naggings(too late, shld study instead etc..). so i told him nicely i'll go back 2my room n wait til he finishes. n guess wat? he had 2 purposely say he'll read til 4am, thinking tat'll force me 2 abandon my vcd plan. BUT no, i tot. i'll make sure i outlast u n watch my vcd b4 morning. hence, explaining e cause 4 contention. i feel stupid, but i feel rebellious too.=P

ive been pretty much satisfied by how my sept hols has turned out so far. =) there hasnt been a moment where im forced 2 struggle wif conflicting emotions or saddened by e way things have turned out. yeah. its been good...i know good things will eventually come to an end, so all i hope is tt e end is still far. haha, e elusive section pasta dinner at brandon's finally materialized on tuesday. jit n i were e happiest i believe, as we came up wif e idea right frm 3months ago. we ate great pasta(sadly, too little cheese)specially churned out by our chief chef cum SL n watched drumline+blast in lieu of e all-percussion theme. drumline's a movie tt every percussionist MUST watch, i agree. n BLast! made me wish i could watch it live....

ive also had a chance 2 bond wif my junior jithra, when we pigged out in her living room watching "Chokolat". it was screened few years back n im equally surprised as her tt i haven heard of it in my entire life. CHokolat's so good tt i tink its gonna occupy a prestigious spot in my favourite movies list. it doesnt hav stunning visual effects, a fantastic soundtrack nor a creative plot. nothing of those sort. its merely a quaint kind of movie, set in a village whose pple are going thru Lent(a 40day fast) but starts sinning(breaking tt fast) when a lady opens a Chocolaterie. scenes of her stirring tt rich creamy tantalizing brown liquid is enough visual effects 4 me! With tt bit romance involving johnny depp n tt lady, e movie is made perfect=) i din make much of depp, but i lost count of e times tt jit drooled over him. kissable lips, unshaven gruff look(yuck) blah blah...u noe wat? i tink such personalised time spent wif just one or two close friends is wat reeli makes tt friendship grow. in sch, we can see each other all e time, but does tt make a diffference? no. e friendship remains stagnant...until we isolate ourselves frm e crowded world n do stuff together in our own private space(shit dis description sounds wrong but i cant think of how else 2 phrase it...=P) haha watever, shant go philosophical.

oh yes..i got a tan! tt only me n my mum noticed.=/ so its not reeli counted huh? sigh but no time 2 try again. e sun ytd was so fickle! first it decided 2 shine nice n strong, den it decided to hide itself behind e clouds..n e cycle repeats. so disappointing! i mus admit im jealous of e sentosa ppl (e band mates who went sentosa ytd whilei was tanning by mich's condo pool). every single one of them is at least a shade darker...but me? "you still look e same wat...no diff leh.." hahaha...

today i tried on e topshop skirt i saw on mon which i tot was e nicest denim skirt i ever seen. n yes, its in fact e nicest skirt ive ever worn! unfortunately it'll remain in my dreams...79bucks...shakes head.. anw, i love shopping wif my mum, she's e best shopping partner in e world! =) to me...well, we like things each other likes hence i always get e encouragement whenever i feel sumthing is nice, we express happiness whenever we look at e clothes tt each other has picked n tried on..and so on...basically, whenever we shop, it'll b a happy experience=) (not counting e stuff she refuses 2 let me buy la..hehe..but tt doesnt reeli matter after all)

can u belive it? its 4.30am! i'll go check e living room now...eh, but i do agree its abit late(or early?) to watch e vcd now. oh well, at least i enjoyed dis entry! :)

great day. great fun. great friends. [Sep. 5th, 2004|11:30 pm]
[Current Mood |satisfiedsatisfied]

yay! im finalli have some writing inspiration. guess wat, i touched my notes today 4 e 1st time in 2weeks! nothing impressive tho, i merely filed 20months worth of econs stuf. =P did that sound alot? it was, but i threw away lotsa junk(pathetically lousy essays, half completed tutorials w/o answer keys etc..) and reduced them to 2 big fat striped files labelled j1 and j2. i nv felt tt accomplished! everything about econs feel so organised now. im so proud of myself. hehe..but e process reeeeli sux. =P i dread doing dis again 4 history but i have to.

had hell lotsa fun at ESCAPE yesterday wif tt foreva wonderful bunch of band mates...we spent e whole afternoon 12-6 screaming and laughing at practically everyting we did and the feeling's damn good. i nv imagined ESCAPE would b tt fun. well, it would never hav been if not 4 janice, cheryl, qilin, sweelan, roy, daniel, david, kevin, jeremy and me. together, we rock! :D hahaaa..but im still rating e place as e most pathetic theme park ive ever been to, given e miserly no. of thrill rides and e overcharged entrance fee. hence e lesson is: go wif e right pple. they're like e magic touch.=) some of e highlights were...screaming "happy birthday roy!" as e viking swang down frm e highest point or screaming someting different each time we came down, counting e number of revolutions the 'revolution' made every time we went on it, having our butts abused on e 'flipper', and yes, getting wet. or rather, drenched. everythings jus soo...1 simple word, memorable! oh, i hav 2 announce again that i hate e go-kart. its smelly, noisy and very bumpy. im freaked out by tt feeling of being shaken vigourously for a whole 10min.

dinner was another memorable time. BBQ steamboat at marina. again, almost every min we had something 2 laugh about. and i mean laughter, not jus smiles. everyone's amusing in their own special way.. e feeling i got was a big contrast frm e time i ate wif my ex rv class(hmm, wat class?) 4 e latter, it was dull, uninteresting and fake. on top of being in e company of tt foreva wonderful bunch of band mates, i lurv e so-AC feeling, get wat i mean? tink lanxiu might identify wif me too cos we both detest our ex-schs..esp e culture..right? anw, where was i..oh ya, could feel tt roy the birthday boy's reeli touched by everything...he said it was one of his best days ever. well, we spent nearly every min of his birthday wif him n dunno wished him how many times!=) yea, we are nice pple...hahhaa..i bet he was wiping both sweat AND tears away after we surprised him wif e cake. admit it!

alright tts it..off to shower..great day great fun great friends=)

pleasures [Aug. 30th, 2004|10:53 pm]
[Current Mood |annoyedannoyed]

reading's one of life's greatest pleasure. i felt that today. n discovered those red reading chairs along e linkway in jurong library are reeeli cosy! haha...yup i spent my afternoon there jus choosing n reading books...oh yes n 4 once i adhered to e librarry rules --this area is strictly for the reading of library materials only. haha..i believe e security guard whom we're all familiar with, was pleasantly surprised 2 see me actually reading a library book. yup, he's e one who's been nagging at ppl 2not study at e tables/soft chairs. he's e one everyone's been defying cos, WE REALLY NID TO STUDY! well, my "club muggers" membership has been temporarily terminated...so yea, dun havta put up wif dose spot checks anymore...4 now.=) back 2 my tots on reading. was on C.S.Lewis's The Problem of Pain jus now and manz it was a tough read.. his views are kinda 'chim' n i had 2 reread many parts 2 finally feel e essence. not e book i would recommend 4 light/relaxed reading. read if u wana feel enlightened/wiser in 3hours? btw Lewis is among e best Christian thinkers of his time and his views r like treasures. =) anyway, i have 2 comment on this. y are all e wonderful books not for loan??! ok mayb most, but watever the case, its super irritating...like e book i was reading, i found it in reference. as well as others by e same author. went 2 e borrowing section n there was NONE. how sad is that. oh well, gotta pacify myself by thinking, "they're on loan and they'll come back one day". I HOPE THEY ARE! i guess im gonna buy e book worse comes to worst. but they're so many books (in reference) i wana read does that mean i buy all??

final paper tmr and prelims are officially over. *jumps up wif joy* wonder if e class party will turn out well. but i guess it will... i realised we practically hav a one week holiday..starting frm today. look there's a not-to-be-studied-for paper tmr and den we're released, wed's tchers day holiday, thur's bio mcq no sch 4 me, n friday's tchers day celebration! how cool is tt! (e 1 wk break not e celebration) tink im gonna treat dis as my september holidays n hopefully resume my "club muggers" membership during e real september break. haha...

my weekend [Aug. 29th, 2004|11:22 pm]
[Current Mood |awakeawake]

jus finished writing a card 4 a fren...which was long overdue, felt terribly bad about it but thank God it wasnt delayed any longer. mayb i got a little carried away by wat i wrote but it was definitely worth every single alphabet (:

its been an eventful weekend. a break from e monotony of mugging. lets see, yesterday or today 1st? ok chronological order yea? shopped in town wif my mum ytd n i was reeli touched by how well she knew me...on our way 2 far east, she told me about dis side bag which she was 100% sure i'd like (in fact, she almost bought it 4 me upon seeing it but was stopped by my aunt)..ok so we headed 4 that shop once we reached far east, n there it was. the nicest bag in the whole world. n yes, if it hasnt connected, thats the bag she was refering too. SO HAPPY!! n so touched.=) of course we bought it..n its now hanging on my doorknob waiting 4 tuesday. haha...u better not say its ugly or u'll piss me off. =P on top of that we oso bought 3necklaces frm i 4got the shop name, 1 sleeveless black top and 1skirt frm my fav pepper plus. ive no idea how all that costed...cos my dearest mum paid.=) she went home after tt while i went 2 watch FACE with sweelan n roy. had 2 make do wif tiong bahru plaza cos it wasnt showing at cine nor lido n it was full house at ps. even e 9.30pm ones left front rows only. whoa n tiongbahru was more 'ulu' den i expected. e theatre was barely half filled(or shld it b half empty?) n all e ppl were so domesticated. heh...no wildscreams, jus gasps or barely audible ahhhs during e supposedly scary parts. haha did i make e movie sound bad? actually its pretty exciting la, n it did scare me(was burying my face in sweelan's (yes, sweelan ok) arm in fact. hehe) i'm usually brave in horror flicks noe. n i noticed one thing. koreaner's(however they're called) horror ideas r e best amg e horror movie makers. i have totally no idea y THE RING sells like hotcakes. i dun even tink its a least bit scary nor exciting. oh yes, FACE has a storyline. alright shall move on to today (to roy: look how i conveniently ignored tt embarrassing part..haha)

today. a swirl of emotions. sorry, too personal ones go into my mental diary but here's wats left...i saw a pleasantly new side of dis fren. actually i kinda noticed it b4 oredi, but wat i saw today confirmed it. as i mentioned, it was pleasant but confirming it kinda made things worse. hahaa bet u dont hav a clue wat i rambling about. tts e point tho. haha to continue, i wished i could help but sadly, our friendship has hardly taken off. so obviously it isnt quite suitable 4 us to talk. yeah...ok, sad things aside, i watched "13 going on 30" wif my cousin!! 1st, i haven met her 4 months, 2nd, the movie completely rocks! its funny, sweet, touching n girlish...e perfect movie 4 me. haha...yes i absolutely love watching such chick flicks that guys usually cringe at. but to think again, there's a guy bside us watching alone! but we were mostly surrounded by kids/young girls like us and there's dis kinda old woman behind us who kept laughing at practically everything. *rolls eyes* on e whole it was hilarious but not that hilarious. fortunately she didnt spoil e romantic part. anw i came out satisfied, teary eyed and happy. =) i should watch another movie tmr so i can call it a movie marathon right? hahaa...but there's nothing left im interested in...mayb stepford wives but i'd rather save money 4 a cinderella story and the princess diaries 2 coming soon in theatres next mth...but den again..lanxiu said we have to watch stepford wives. hahaha...dunno, see first? who's interested? actually i plan 2 stay home 2 catch up on some reading tmr(10mins time) not sch related books/notes obviously, but a real book.

ive spent alot of time on this entry already...tink i shld end off. my typing speed's decreasing at an increasing rate i dunno y and my thoughts dun flow as smoothly as b4 anymore. keep pausing as i type. mayb its e mugging. oh yes. its twelve which means 2hrs 15min more 2 wait. yepp, im looking 4ward 2 e closing ceremony...im hoping 4 flashbacks den i can see swim events again! im all over Olympic swimming..i mean watching. u name it, i know it. wait, im into admiring e way ppl SWIM k, not wat ure thinking of....haha damn i jus revealed wat ive been doing during prelims instead. but it was my only getaway at e end of a day's mugging! *innocent tone* ok better post dis now... im gonna miss the Olympics. in 4yrs time i'll b like 22? wonder wat i'll turn out...editor of poise? (u'll get it when uve watchd 13 going on 30:)
