Everyone needs a change in their lives once in a while. and so do i.

http://drewww.wordpress.com

Goodbye blogger. We'll meet again soon, someday. :)

2007-06-23T23:24:00.000+08:00

have been really cranky these few days esp in the evenings. its probably due to the pre-exam stress and lack of ample rest and what not. and i know i shouldnt be crankily procrastinating here cos everyone of my fellow peers are also going through the identical situations. so i should really stop complaining.

but you know what, during my cranky moments, i've been doing some reflection about everything that taking place in my life. from studies to family and friends and what not. and i found that on one hand, i may appear to be like a normal steady composed successful healthy teenger who seemed to be growing and developing well in every aspect, with a loving family and good friends and good education etc. but on the other hand, i feel insercure and inadequate. there's just something not complete inside of me and is really troubling and boggling me for quite a while. i wont be saying what it is cos this is a blog and friends do visit my blog. i dont want people to know abt thius. and i dont want friends to come asking me about this and showering me with their concerns, and promising to be a better friend. no thank you. its not that i dont appreaciate your friendship. no. its really not that. i really do love every single of you from the bottom of my hearts. i just prefer the way things are now.

i believe that im my own person and im independent. i've always trusted my own instincts and the voice within. i dont need friends to lean and depend anyone for help. i dont need no one's sympathy please. cut that crap. i'll just run to God for solace and stength. i can acheieve anything , overcome any obstacles that stand in my way, no matter how tough it might be, and climb every mountain with my own strength and my absolute faith in God Almighty. thanks. that enough.

so just know that im not really happy and satisfied in a particular area of my life. but dont worry, for i'll always be wearing this facade of composure and that of a good friend to be one for all of you. anyways this facade's already more or less incoporated into my character and personality. not unless you dig deep. no never. to be perfectly honest, none of you will ever get close to the true andrew. none. not even my cloest friend who have only experienced the tip of the iceberg.

truly sorry for this emo post. i've been comtemplating whether or not to even pen this down since it may appear so retarded to say that you have some dissatisfaction but not saying what it is. i just needed to get it off my chest. and the only way is to blog it down here or to talk to my parents(which i wont cos they've have their own share of problems as parents and adults) and how can i ever seek comfort in my friends when every single one of them are so caught up in their own lives, struggling with problems of their own. no i wont allow my problems to be a burden to them. to me its unnecessay. yeah its kinda weird isnt it? but there's just the way it is.

maybe im so used to bottling all my thoughts, feelings and expressions inside of me that im so used to swallowing down all my unhappiness, instead of spitting them out. sometimes i ask myself, what's the use of telling your problems? yes it might allow you to feel better. but when problems arise again, you'll then need to spit it out again and when there's no one around to lend a listening ear, ha. so might as well get use to containing everything inside and get immune to the pain and dissatifaction. and dont worry, i will NEVER explode. yes you've heard me right, I'LL NEVER EXPLODE! i've got my own way of excretion. In no circumstance or situation will i ever crumble and breakdown. no i wont. I AM A FIGHTER. AND A STRONG AND RESILIENT ONE INDEED. no matter how seemingly challenging the obstacles might be, even if the whole world would be against me, i'll not waiver or shrink in doubt of fear. but i stand firm and place my hand in God's plam, believeing in His wisdom valour and strength that will deliever me. and together, victory is ours. mark that.

and yes some ppl genuinely care. but most try, but fail. because they are simply too caught up with the pleasures of their own life to give 2 hoots about yours. bullshit. but really is not their fault too. and in the end, conversations and everything will be about them and their childish dumb teenage problems and none about your personal deeper difficulties. i know. dont ask me why. see what i mean? sometimes you just cant. its not like you dont want.

and just so you know, the difficulties that i'm experiencing is way past all the cliche and childish teenagers teeny weeny problems that happens everyday and can be solved like with a snap of the finger. no im facing situations that are much deeper and more mature. something that im sure none of you have experienced and will understand and be able to relate to anytime now or in the near future. sorry if i'd sound a lil insulting.

maybe i'd blurted all my frustations out of crankiness. yeah who knows? even im not clear myself. i sincerely apologise once again if i've sounded too offensive. yeah i acknowledged my tone was a lil too harsd. but i needed that. dont take anything personally please. rest assured none of you have absolutely anything to do with this. please do nt ask me questions like "omg andrew are you ok". im perfect fine and am in the perfect state of mind. this is just an entry on my relfections and some venting of mine.

oh no. i better get this 'thing' out of my head and not allow it to affect my performance for the prelims on monday. sheesh get out of my head NOW!!!!!

May God bless and guide you and i as we continue to live our daily lives, doing our daily mundane worldly activities. God blessings be upon you. :)

On a lighter note, 26 year old pop singing sensation, Christina Aguilera , and husband Jordan Bratmen, are expecting their first child! Rumours have been confirmed that Christina is about three months pregnant with their first child. oohh cant wait for baby christina/jordan. for more infomation, go to http:// www.christina-a.net/

Everyday is so wonderful,
suddenly its hard to breathe.
Now and then, i get insecure,
from all the pain i'm so ashamed.

I am beautiful,
no matter what they say,
Words can't bring me down.
I am beautiful,
in every single way
Yes words can't bring me down.
So don't you bring me down today.

When there's no one there,
look inside yourself,
and just trust the voice within.

hello to all!!

its like 10 38 am now and i had just arised from my snuggly comfy bed. yeah i know im quite a pig but and everyone should be getting adjusted back to school life by waking up at 6 and blah blah. haha yeah whatever la huh. but i studied late last night. till 3 plus! gosh and i was so focused that i've accomplished so much more if i had worked in the day. im definitely a nortunal worker.

should i go to school later to see mr tan regarding chem stuff? he's only available at 1 plus so the timing's kinda odd. i mean its neither early nor late. yeah. so to go or not to go. to go or not to go? *plucks rose petals and chants*

you know how funny it is when you thought you've gotten over someone? yet she keeps popping into your mind once in a while (esp when you're emo-ing). and worst case, have a dream regarding her one random night a few days before your prelims. some may say that its a stress reliever. but i say its a stress adder. oh wells enough abt this.

i think im gonna have my morning bath now and start mugging again. gosh i feel like a hardcore mugger. yeah no choice la, sec 4 life does not enable you not to be a mugger. tatas :)

2007-06-20T14:54:00.000+08:00

I thank God for them! :)

oh gosh did i really sound that sick in my last entry? haha yeah i was. anyway thanks alot for the concern and well wishes. am really touched the love that everyone showered upon me. haha. yeah so i'm on the road to recovery (gosh i sound like i contracted some serious illness) haha but my cough's still pretty bad and my nose's still very blocked. so my blocked nose and cough can get pretty bad in the night. or it might come suddenly in periods and then disappear for a few hours. yeah freaky i know. maybe it has got to do with my history of a sensitive nose and asthma.

anyway its only a few days left to term 3 and Prelims!! so full gear everyone! Lets have faith in God and ourselves, study SMART, and score those As man! WE CAN DO IT!!!!

2007-06-18T04:32:00.000+08:00

"Lost Without You"

I know I can be a little stubborn sometimes
A little righteous and too proud
I just want to find a way to compromise
Cos I believe that we can work things out

I thought I had all the answers never giving in
But baby since you've gone I admit that I was wrong

All I know is I'm lost without you I'm not gonna lie
How am I going to be strong without you I need you by my side
If we ever say we'll never be together and we ended with goodbye don't know what I'd do ...I'm
lost without you
I keep trying to find my way but all I know is I'm lost without you
I keep trying to face the day I'm lost without you

How am I ever gonna get rid of these blues
Baby I'm so lonely all the time
Everywhere I go I get so confused
You're the only thing that's on my mind

Oh my beds so cold at night and I miss you more each day
Only you can make it right no I'm not too proud to say

All I know is I'm lost without you I'm not gonna lie
How am I going to be strong without you I need you by my side
If we ever say we'll never be together and we ended with goodbye don't know what I'd do ...I'm
lost without you
I keep trying to find my way but all I know is I'm lost without you
I keep trying to face the day I'm lost without you

If I could only hold you now and make the pain just go away
Can't stop the tears from running down my face
Oh

All I know is I'm lost without you I'm not gonna lie
How am I going to be strong without you I need you by my side
If we ever say we'll never be together and we ended with goodbye don't know what I'd do ...I'm
lost without you
I keep trying to find my way but all I know is I'm lost without you
I keep trying to face the day I'm lost without you

i really really wanna upload the malaysia pictures. but they're in my sister's computer so i'll have to wait till she gets back from shopping before asking her for them ok.

attended ms chia's (or rahter mrs low) wedding today. well mommy warned me beforehanf that catholic weddings are gonna be quite traditional, having to go through the catholic rituals, the priest's and church's wedding and what not. she said its gonna be very different from christian church's wedding ceremony (the kind that i attended most often). gosh and what she said was true. we had to go through a hour plus hours, in which we kept standing up and sitting down repeatedly. and what was so annoying was that we didnt have the programme booklet as the urshers rushed us in without allowing us to visit the reception booth outside as we were running late (as she claims). yeah and all the catholic hymns sounds alien to me excpet one which i'd sanged before in church. so other than that hymn, we were stood there, trying not to appear too lost weird.

and the cat high filled up 1/3 of the whole congregation. and obviously we were the last ones for the phtography session. so annoying. the sanctuary was almost empyt except the whole bunch of us waiting impatiently, bored to death. so when it was out turn, we stood up, congragated and woah! i think there was more than 200 of us. so since we couldnt all fit into the picture at once (or rather the picture couldnt acconmodate all of us). ms chia asked for the sec 4s first then sec 3s. even so, the sec 4 gang was really huge.

and ms chia looked EXTREMELY GORGEOUS and beautiful today. oh wells doesnt she, everyday? she had me to say that. haha. oh wells hope she'll have a nice and relaxing honeymoon. and when she comes back next week. we're so gonna have a mini-celebrate with her. we're celebrate both her marriage and her birthday (which is tme on the 10th). and we're gonna make her bring her wedding photos and the guest book since we didnt get a chance to sign and admire the beautiful photos. and im so gonna make her wear her wedding headdress thingy or maybe the tiara for the signifance that this gathering is to celebrate her marriage. haha bright idea of mine huh?

and she'll only reveive her wedding gift from len and i next fri. when she's back in school. nvm at least out present will reveive special attention. haha

im bored. so im stuck at home with macbth and joy luck club for companionship. i'll have to keep them company and play with them and understand them thoroughly. (gosh sounds so wrong) so much so that i'll score well in the various tests next week. and mrs tang's still is england. i bet she's at the countryside, sipping tea and nibbling on scottish shortbread. hmph im jealous. :(

daryl's on cruise now. so too bad he couldnt attend ms chia's wedding today.

im still hungrily waiting for my dinner. shucks its already 11 plus. if i eat now or anytime later, i'll have to sleep only 2 hours later. that means only at 1 or later. if not i'll get fat. ok my family's back. i hope with my sumptuous dinner. *crosses finger*
I MISS JO. BUT I GUESS I HAVE RACH NOW. :)

2007-06-04T16:19:00.000+08:00

HELLO ALL!!! IM BACK FROM MALAYSIA!!!

hmm actually i arrrived home 3 nights ago round 9. would have arrived later if not for having to wake up at 7 to drag myself to school everyday. oh wells. but i think 9 is alright la.

This 4 day 3 night malaysia trip was really cool and enjoyable. it really helped me to unwind, relax, get away from reality and rejuvenate myself. oh wells i truly enjoyed myself and it was a well-spent few days with my family and only with my family. talking about family bonding huh.

it was really a learning experience for me esp in cameron highlands. it was my first time there. i personally got very close to nature and experienced all the cultivation and farming and what not. (good education trip for my geog. reminds me of daryl and his mrs pang)i actually got too see the farmer harvesting the cabbage and all and the whole huge plantation. yeah so its kinda cool to get away from all the hustle and bustle of modern city life and adopt a laid-back and relax lifestyle, away from all the civilisations. just absolutely envy the ppl's stress-free lifestyle there. all they do is farm and open up stalls in the market to sell their food stuff. so i visited loads of farms, strawberry (they're like super famous for that. its damn sweet and nice) and 2 huge tea plantations (they're also known for that). i tell you, the whole place is so huge, its like never ending mountain after mountain, plantation after plantation. haha and so i thought i'd better settle my presents there so there i can shop peacefully in kl. so i bought everyone tea. haha. there's Cameron Valley Tea and Boh Tea. my favourite is the Cameron Valley one but Boh isnt too bad either. just loved tea la.

and i bought back loads of veges and greens too. its super duper cheap and fresh and big and worth the ringgit. haha. its like the price that we pay for the veges in spore is like at least 3 times that of in cameron highlands. and even so its not as fresh and worth it. cos its like grown there so all the greens are in abundance and all the stalls in the market are selling greens. ranging from all types of cherry tomatoes, cabbage, lettuce, corn, sweet potatoes and lots of other fruits and all. so my mum being MY MUM bought quite a lot of veges, hoping it would last back to spore! and it did! we're still eating them for dinner everyday. and there's still alot left in the fridge. and the hydroponics lettuce are super cheap too! local ntuc sells like one bowl ready-made for like $5 plus. over there, we could choose 6 big bags fresh lettuce (butterhead, green coral, purple coral etc) for only $10 ringgit. so of cos we grabbed. and it was super fresh. that was our dinner that night. :)

and my gosh how i love the chilly weather there!! its like highest 21 degrees in the day and abt avearge 17-16 degress in the night! yeah so it so cooling with the chilly wind and all. unlike hot and humid spore. so i enjoyed 2 days of cooling weather there, carrying a light sweater around in case it got too cold. On the 2nd night, after we had veges for dinner. i was still a lil hungry. so i suggested driving down the winding road to the town to buy food and visit the night market. since we'd all bathed, my sis and i wore our sleeping clothes. which was a thin t-shirt and fbt shorts for me. (the super hott short and thin shorts). and of cos we brought along our sweater. (must be nuts not to bring). so then we were already in the car when mommy blurted out "oh no! my jacket is not in the car!" and we were already halfway down the hill. so being the loving son, i gave mommy my sweater and i decided to brave the chilly 16 degrees with the little cloth on my body. haha its a once in a lifetime experience ok. haha yeah intially it was freezing my legs were freaking numb and my heart was liteally shivering. but after a while i got used to the chilliness. but what was interesting was that sister and i acttracted many stares from everyone as no one wore such micro hott shorts and with only a thin t-shirt. even the locals wore long pants and at least a light jacket. haha yeah so we were totally enjoying all the attention we were receiving as we strolled down the streets. haha. :)

just dont stay in hotel Equatoral (did i spell it correctly). yeah my hotel room had like 6 lightings and electric appliances spoiled. daddy accidentally switched on a switch and that tripped everything. so the hotel had to send some guy to repair the telephone and what not and that wasted us 1-2 hours. how horrbile. tsk. and mommy found a snail garden snail in char kway teow at the buffet breakfast. and all the staff did was to apologise when we complained. how hygeneic can they get man. tsk tsk. horrible horrible.

yeah so moving on to the 3rd day. we left cameron highlands in the morning at 10 plus and left for kl! much to sister's delight. haha she said she couldnt stand anymore of this rural stuff and seeing strawberries and veges every moment. once we arrived there at 3 plus. we checked into the Hotel Istana. the hotel was awesome and gorgeous! i think its 5 star or sth. dont know how my parents managed to get such a cheap rate. so we lazed around and rested and set off for shopping at 5! chionged straight in FOS and i bought like only 2 tops and 2 bottoms from FOS. i couldnt care less and just bought what seemed appealing to me. it was the only shopped which we managed to spent 2 hours for good solid shopping there. after that we had dinner at sushi tei and walked around the whole kl town area. couldnt really shopped too due to really tight time constraint and daddy was rushing us from place to place.

and the next morning, after breakfast in the hotel (the spread and food was fabulous btw), it was already 10 40 and we had to check out by 12 noon. but we decided to talk a walk and have a look at the gym and spa and whatever facilities. little did we know that the gym was so freaking cool and high class with such a wide range of high-tech gym facilities. and the jacuzzi (they called it 'whirlpool') looked so shiok too. so being the crazy family, we decided to take a dip in the 'whirlpool', but we had to be real fast to check up by 12 noon. so we dashed back to our room to change and within 10 min, we were soaking ourselves in the 'whirlpool' and it has a sign "No nude bathing please!" oh please who would want to nude bathe there. haha after whirlpool since there was still 5 min left, i dashed into the steam room perspired all the fats out. haha. then we dashed up to our room and poof! we checked out by 12 sharp!

on the way back, we stopped by at jb to visit my nun aunt and she brought us to this giant shopping centre (as big or bigger than vivocity). its called tebrau city. the place there is called tebrau. that huge gigantic shopping centre has everything there. really everything. from Giant supermarket to up-market boutiques like levis' dorothy perkins and what not. it kinda appeals to sporeans as its juts like 20 min drive from spore. so we had dinner there and i bought one last quiksilver tee before leaving for home.

HOME SWEET HOME. i reached home at abt 9.

i promise pictures very very very soon. :)

so this kinda summarises my trip to malaysia. if you ask me, i dont mind going to cameron highlands again. and if have not already been there, you must go there soon okay! totally love the weather and its a lovely eduacational trip. might be going to malaysia on the fourth week of the hols again. so what if prelims are on the first week of school? i'll just study in the car. like how i studied for macbeth on this trip :D

oh wells, daryl just bugged me to upload abt this trip. well i guess congrats to him if he has managed to read till here. well thank you everyone/anyone for staying with me through this short summary on my trip. haha. gosh i'd spend 3 days typing this post.

and i have survived school for the past few days. having physics, chem and math test. there's amath and chem test tmr. gonna study for it today. hope i'll survive through it. oh yes you will andrew! going for foor reflexology later. haha

oh yeah and 98.7 fm is like giving up tickets for christina's Back To Basics World Tour just by calling and answering some stuff in the afternoon, everyday for the whole of this week. or sth like that. gosh im so excited.

there's the subway turkey sandwich still waiting for me on my table. should i eat it. hmm daryl?

2007-05-30T23:37:00.000+08:00

OMG IN LESS THAN 6 HOURS I'LL BE OFF TO MALAYSIA!!! :)))

ohwells actually its not much of a biggie since i've been to malaysia like 7927464 times already. no wait its more like 5343739237. ok i'm feel extrememly dready and crappy. its the stupid medicine that the doctor gave me since my stupid asthmathic cough has just decided to attack me at this time. *thanks asthma. can u pls go away, you've been here since last week and its really annoying.

i'm feeling so cranky and tired and i havent even finished packing yet. no wait i've finished. yes i've finished. actually i dont know. it seems like i've finished packing but i feel like i'd missed out something. there's this empty feeling. i'll go double check later. i cant stand it if i forget to bring something (be it important or not) and i'll spend the whole time regretting and not enjoying the trip.

cant wait to get to do some REAL SHOPPING at KL! FOS!! *notes to self: remember to buy shades for daryl and len.

len told me to just bring myself and nothing else. so as to have an excuse to buy loads of clothes in malaysia. kinda make sense though. and to think i've also chucked my Joy Luck and Macbeth and SS in my bag. cant stop thinking about my studies. that's the pathetic life of a sec 4. but i'll probably dread to do any work or be too tired shopping to even flip open those horrid stuff. oh wells we shall see. maybe those stuff can be used as entertainment sake considering that 8 HOURS car ride up to cameron highlands.

loads of cam whoring, singing, and getting high tmr in the car with the sister. so i better take a cap nap soon as to prevent having big panda eyes tmr.

dad's in my room now typing his stuff. ah he's just in my room cos he's 'borrowing' the aircon (as he claims). i better go and do th necessary last bit of before the mommy stomps out and start her screaming.

LOADS OF LOVES! i'll be back on sunday night. just in time for intensive lessons on monday. tatas~ <3

2007-05-29T21:34:00.000+08:00

so the chinese Os are finally over!! after much awaited anticipation. i did gong han and bao zhang bao dao. didnt do so well for my bao zhang though. kinda rushed through it due to time constraint. couldnt really organise my thoughts properly and translate my thoughts into chinese. so ended up beating around the bush. guess it could be partly due to the unusual eerie killer silence in the hall and the tense atmosphere that made it so nerve wrecking. oh wells i hope paper 2 would pull me up cos i thought it was quite easy. (i scored 9/10 for my close passage when normally i'll score 2/10). yeah so that's how easy O Level is. but i musnt get too big headed or anything but just to have faith in God and myself, hope for the best and put in upmost effort for paper 3 in July!!

and today was english prelim oral. (stressful huh? having oral one day after chinese Os). yeah i think i did pretty well (or at least i hope). the only mistake i made was in the reading. i pronounced "local youth club" as "yocal youf club". i think i was too nervous and couldnt articulate the words in time. so i kinda stumbled but managed to carry on. for the picture discusion and conversation, i kept going on and on and making sure that the examiners had nothing to prompt. so in the end i'd only one prompt from them and many many agreeing nods and comforting smiles :)

oh yeah and i was so dumb to actually come at 7 45 am only to find out that shift for the oral was at 10 45 am! i woke up at like 6 30 when i could've woken up at 9 instead. haha so i waited for len and then we went for breakfast at macs. and then to daryl's playground. long time since we've been there man. so i had more time to warm up more vocals and get myself mentally prepared for the oral exam. so it wasnt such a bad idea to wake up earlier afterall :)

after these 2 stressful days, my spirits lifted. finally i felt carefree! . went to town in the afternoon and i went shopping! or rather prepared myself for shopping in malaysia. couldnt really do much shopping as i havent been training my stamina due to studies and exams. nvm at least today was good training and i enjoyed myself. it has indeed been such a long time i'd shopped so carefreely without worrying about my studies.

in malaysia i'll be from this thu to sun. going to cameron highlands followed by KL to shop! gosh i cant wait man. and we're leaving at 5am on thu. how exciting is that??

make use of the holidays to relax, rejuvenate yourselves. but make sure you mug hard too! use this chance to catch up on your schoolwork or start revising if you havent already done so. the Os are in 4 months time! gosh how time really flies.

For one, my dad took my tablet to office to get it reformated and ta-dah! its back and the speed is freaking fast! no more lagging and no more having to throw tandrums or get mad at the tablet for taking such a long time to load a page, or for always hanging halfway, having to restart.. yeah so now to load anything only takes a click and abt 2 seconds and its done. how efficient. its almost like new. however sand since its defragmented and reformated, i've lost some of the programs i'd previously installed. and now this tablet doesnt have alot of programs installed. and out of those that are already installed, they're the oldest and most basic version, just enough for the system to run. so everything is pretty much basic and necessary. haha going BACK TO BASICS. haha and i just love using this super fast tablet now.

Anyway just came back from tawan's 17th birthday party. Happy Birthday to Tawan! well oh well the party was quite fun and we played this interesting chemisty game. ;) haha and we gave him a crumpler for a present! haha but its kinda cheapo cos 10 ppl were chipping in so we only paid like 10 bucks per person. but hey its the thought the counts afterall.

school's been really really really busy! :( well oh well there's like neverending homework to be done and they're like virtually impossible to complete unless u spend the whole day doing nothing but work. yeah and there's so much other materials from other subjects when we should be focusing on chinese now. so yeah time management and having priorities are really very crucial at this moment in our lives. i'll make it a point to read a few chinese compos everyday first before going on to my other subject. but i never seem to complete my work unless i stayed up late. resulting in crankiness and bitchiness the next day :/ (which i absoultely dislike that ugly of me). i guess we must really cherish every second and moment that we have. 1 more week to chinese Os!!!

having physics lessons tmr at 9am. so couldnt stay over at daryl's tonight. how sad :( i feel so leftout.

and Christina Aguilera is coming here to s'pore on June 30th to perform her Back To Basics Tour. She'll be performing her latest hits like Aint No Other Man, Hurt and CANDYMAN! for more deatails, refer to Striaits Times Life! (18 may) or visit Sistic's website. how exciting huh? tickets are from $98 to $348. Yes $348. philip and i are saving up to try our best to attend this one in a lifetime concert and since im such a big fan of christina. imgaine if we managed to win backstage passes? oh gosh i'll just melt on the spot man..

this blog seriously lacks pictues. i shall go philip for the pictures we took today at tawan's party.

goodnight all~ :)

This song has been playing alot on my ipod and itunes lately. "Innocence" by Avril Lavinge from "The Best Damn Thing". The lyrics are really meaningful and there's an emotional feel to the song.

"Innocence"

Waking up I see that everything is OK
The first time in my life and now it's so great
Slowing down I look around and I am so amazed
I think about the little things that make life great
I wouldn't change a thing about it
This is the best feeling

[Chorus]
This innocence is brilliant
I hope that it will stay
This moment is perfect
Please don't go away
I need you now
And I'll hold on to it
Don't you let it pass you by

I found a place so safe, not a single tear
The first time in my life and now it's so clear
Feel calm, I belong, I'm so happy here
It's so strong and now I let myself be sincere
I wouldn't change a thing about it
This is the best feeling

[Chorus]

It's a state of bliss, you think you're dreaming
It's the happiness inside that you're feeling
It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry
It's a state of bliss, you think you're dreaming
It's the happiness inside that you're feeling
It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry
It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry

This innocence is brilliant
Makes you wanna cry
This innocence is brilliant
Please don't go away
Cause I need you now
And I'll hold on to it
Don't you let it pass you by

[Chorus]

Chinese Os in 15 days. how fast does time flies. haha and soon it'll be all over. haha. so in the meantime, i'll have to study chinese and jiang hua yu. haha having chinese intensive lessons the whole of next week. how scary can that get man?

zai jian! :)

2007-05-01T02:54:00.000+08:00

i seriously havent got the time to blog. so here i am again. finally.

its 2 52am now. im trying to finish up my math paper, gossip msg-ing with lennart about random stuff (who's working overnight at his bowling alley), and blogging now. how fantastic i am. multi tasking again. again. tsk..

our school's debate lost to scgs in the finals last friday at nanyang girls auditorium. i felt that our team put up a very good show and did the best they could. well let's just say that lady luck wasnt on their side that day and they were kinda on the disadvantaged. oh wells. so what if they'd lost? kudos for the effort and their showmanship! :)

just finished chinese prelim 2 on fri too. was quite easy. and its less than a month to chinese Os!!! 28th May chinese intensive coming up real soon. must be all geared up for the challenge..

cant wait to watch 'Phantom of the Opera' on may 15. i know im one of the last to watch the show and most of my friends have already watched it. haha oh wells. heard its awesome! cant wait to experience it myself. and then there's macbeth play on the 26th may @ DBS Building. going with the whole lit class. finally i get to see macbeth up live. sure its gonna be thrilling (esp the murder). 2 days after that. ITS CHINESE OS! perfect timing andrew. :/

im so glad tmr its labour day. where i'll get to relax, rejuvenate my senses, and finish up my back-logged homework.

the caffine from the cafe latte i had just now at 10 must be really strong. im still wide and awake now and its already 3 08 now. fantastic man andrew, u so gonna wake up early tmr..

anyway those of you shopaholics who have not been training up your stamina. go run now! because the GREAT SINGAPORE SALE IS STARTING IN HALF A MONTHS TIME!!! :))

good nites. or rather good morning. :)

2007-04-14T01:41:00.000+08:00

OMG MY BLOG JUST INFORMED ME THAT IT IS HAS OFFICIALLY BLOGGED A 100 POST!! SO HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! :) hmm is that how i goes? i'd always seen others do this kind of thing when their blog reach a hundred posts. haha compared to them, mine is like 100 posts in 2 freaking years?!? that's pretty slow and so no surprise. ohwells.

i guess im gonna say the same old stuff again. which is school's pretty fine. really im not lying. maybe im really getting used to all this stress and im already into the momentum for real mugging without realising. just hope i dont burn out or peak to fast before the Os. well actually all i do is just to make sure i complete all my assignments, revise my work regulary and pay real hard attention to the teacher in class (something that i didnt do last year). yeah that should be sufficient FOR NOW. let prelim 2 be the judge.

i've been rather bitchy later, accompanied by sudden moodswings. i dont know why either. probably these are the side effects of stress. sorry to those ive offended or seemed like im angry with them :/. really im not angry at anyone. im just very moody at that time. one of the reasons maybe because i have really low self-esteem at times because of my break-outs! its so damn freaking ugly and irritating! and it's all beacuse of stress again!

im so jealous of the other schools. the sec 4s are still like having so much fun and enjoying themselves in the school activites, cca and what not. some of them dont even appear to me like they're taking the Os this year. i guess we had our fun with sports nite and all.. the general atmosphere of our sec 4 cohort is just so intense, so into their studies, mugging like no one business. That day, i was standing outside my classroom and i was looking at the 'bridge' outside the staffroom where the study area was. and my gosh! i saw all the students all outside seated at the tables, submerged their heads into books. some waiting for teachers. and the level directly below outside the music room was also filled with students studying. when u look at that scene, u really feel terrified and worried. "What has our school become" i told wen bin. probably Muggers Heaven.

not much homework this weekend. but nevertheless not a reason to slack off ans waste the weekend away. no. i've physics and math lessons tmr. and then i shall complete what little homework i have and do my own form of self study.

alrighty, off to bed. its 2 am now and i've to wake up at 8 tmr for physics. so if u didnt fail your math, i've about 6 hours of spending time with my best friend. :)

2007-04-04T00:03:00.000+08:00

i've been doing alright. school and all. yeah. school's pretty fun actually. studying with friends. feeling the stress together. yeah it aint that stressful after all. we just have to look past this process of stress, difficulty and hard work and work towards the ultimate goal at the end of the year. YEAH!

is sec 4 life truly about studying and studying? its like i dont even have a social life right now (almost like the scholars) sometimes im so stressed up and tired that i feel like giving up. but no. for the sake of those who have pinned their hopes on me, i wont. EVER. i'll strive to do well. to perform to my fullest potential. oh yes i will. trust me.

let me share a song with you from kellie pickler

"I'm On My Way"

I've felt the power of forgiveness

I know that life can let you downI'm not blind

No, I don't need a witness

To tell me there's angels all around

My eyes have seen more than they want to

My heart has scars that run so deep

There's tears that I've had to let go

And there's dreams

I told myself I'd keep

Now I don't give up easyI have many miles to go

But I can't wait to get to

What I see down this roadAnd all my life I've learned to

Just take it day by dayI'm not there yet

But I know I'm on my way

I've looked out the window

When there's no hope I sight

But I swear I heard a whisper

Said it would be worth the fight

So I woke up one morning

And I put my fears aside

Now look how far I've come

From the back of an endless line

Now I don't give up easy

I have many miles to go

But I can't wait to get to

What I see down this road

And all my life I've learned to

Just take it day by dayI'm not there yet

But I know I'm on my way

I still got lessons to be learned

There's a choice at every turn

Someone out there cleared a path

And there's no turnin back

And all my life I've learned to

Just take it day by dayI'm not there yet

But I know I'm on my way

I'm not there yet

But I know I'm on my way

Baby, I'm on my way

On my way

there's PE tmr! gosh how i absolutely loathe PE pls!!! rock wall i hate you!

oh yeah i got this super comfy red smiley-face flower cushion. its very cute and the colours are radiant. i take it as an encouragement for my studies. im hugging it right now.

and i dreamt of someone on sat night. how random can your mind get when you're resting huh.

conrats co in getting gold with honours for syf. hope choir and all the other asthetics groups can achieve their desired goals.

we all have best best friends to confide in. my best friend's just Sleep. in which i take refuge in.

-XOXO-

2007-03-29T18:59:00.000+08:00

im doing fine these days. thank you if you're concern.

going to sleep now. feeling quite tired. then after its studying again. oh wells.

:)

2007-03-22T18:27:00.000+08:00

Hello! im doing fine these few days. getting used to school and routine and all. well i'd more or less adjusted well.

so all the results are back. well i would say that i didnt really perform up to expectations this time despite my efforts of studying before the prelims. hmm let's just say that the subjects which i used to ace in failed me and yeah. the reuslts sucked so badly. and physics still sucked so badly for me.. however on a brighter note, i passed my amath for the first time! yeah though it was only a c5 and i've could have done better due to carelessness AGAIN. but i passed nevertheless! that's great right? and i passed my chem too. improved from a d7 to c6. not much though. but still did.

and i got my first A for prelim 2 in chinese! haha yeah i know i hate cheena and all but oh wells. haha i should go be the editor for the lian he zao bao or something. haha and i passed my english. scored a c5. which is already not bad considering half the level failed.

and dont talk about lit and comb humans. i feel so cheated man. everyone in lit always said that they hate the joy luck aunties esp the Jong family. and it turn out that many of them love the aunties much more than i do. i've learnt my lesson and im just gonna give it my all for lit. and for ss i feel so deceived by the revision kit. so much for memorising everything. passed elect geog but still not good enough. im not a very easily contented person. :/

but i believe if i start working hard from now till the Os, achieveing 10 points and below is not a problem at all. :)

anyway Len got second in level for english?!? can you believe it. okay maybe its not that unrealistic. well anyway CONGRATULATIONS. IM SO GONNA BEAT YOU IN PRELIM 2. dont wanna say who's the first. everyone knows.

i'd just finished my 3 days diet. and my gluttony self had to go eat chicken rice and strawberry milkshake today (not together please). oh gosh im such a pig (a thinner one now though).

okay im gonna bathe now. have dinner. and start on my physics remedial homework and bao zhang bao dao. im so hardworking right? YES! and im gonna read an article before i sleep everynight as a bedtime story.

chinese Os in 2 months time? gosh scary.

i have so much fun in school. as always. beacuse of something there :)

tas! :)

2007-03-15T17:24:00.000+08:00

you know. im having rather eratic and sudden and scary mood swings these days. i dont know if its because of the stress of school work (its the schools hols for crying out loud) or what. yeah but whatever it is. its super freaky. i mean i can be like super nice to a person and then suddenly when im face with another person (usually a family member) i'll get very cranky and moody and start showing the sulky face :(

and i get easily upset about little things and i'l hold a grudge for quite long.. freakkkkkyyyyy

haha yesh but dont worry, im still the same ol' ANDREW.

im exceptionally happy today because i've finally done with the morning chinese lessons. no more chinese lessons tmr. no more having to wake up at 7. yay finally after these days of having to wake up super early. im so gonna sleep in till 10 EARLIEST tmr. haha pig.

was watching an interview of christina on youtube. cool. christina aguilera rocks my socks.

and MICHELLE TAN YILIN spammed/flooded my tagboard. that little impish cousin of mine. but i've spammed her back. haha

2007-03-13T15:17:00.000+08:00

Her New Single - Candyman

belting out the HIGH notes

STILL MY IDOL AFTER SUCH A LONG TIME

CHRISTINA AGUILERA

2007-03-13T15:08:00.000+08:00

im freaking tired now. period.

all thanks to chinese in the morning at 8 30? how super early. and we go there onlyu to have lecture for letter writing. half of the time i was gossiping please. oh and oral i screwed it big time man. my chinese sucks real bad. the reading wasnt that bad. but the conversation was just TERRIBLE + HORRIBLE. gosh i couldnt even expressed my thoughts in proper chinese and all that came out was sniplers and strings of words here and there. ohwells. and the joke being the teacher didnt help at all.

so philip and i came up with this genius plan since both our chinese suck so bad. we decided to speak chinese on mon wed and fri and english on the other days. genius huh? hope this speak chinese campaign really works and not turn out a big joke again.

im gonna sleep now before going to do my gong han and si han. yes we still have chinese homework, to be handed up tmr mind you

8 30. still got tmr and thu. ~xXxSiAnZxXx~ -_-

2007-03-11T18:21:00.000+08:00

the mommy and sister are away jogging, working those fats off. while im slump in front of the computer in the living room, growing and breeding more fats. gosh and not to mention i've been exercising for the past gazillion years. okay i've been always saying that for a long time. im just too lazy to get moving ):

oh wells. i'd never had such a lazy sunday for such a long time. but today i had! and it felt great and refreshing. i came back from church at abt 12 and slept all the way till 5. haha im such a pig yes i know. well this is call destressing from the exams. have to relax and recharge before i start hardcore mugging. (which i'll try to tmr). so sad right, we only have a week of hols. and this week is packed with remedial, extra classes and what's not. luckily i dont have cca except for stupid inews which i dont even wanna talk about. okay i'm lamenting again and i better stop.

was supoosed to go for gab's church human monopoly fellowship. but the mommy didnt allow me cos i'd already went shopping yesterday and said that i needed to stay home to help with the housework. boo -_-

anyway yesterday's shopping was fun. finally we could shop with no woes about rushing home to study and what not. and we didnt have any agenda in mind so len and i just window shopped almost everywhere in town. too bad daryl couldnt come. but we had fun nevertheless. we walked, shopped and talked everywhere we went. once again, we sweared we'll bring our mommys to our favourite shops one day. haha oh wells. we walked around aimlessly, going into shops, gossipping and without knowing it. we;d combed almost the whole of orchard. gosh yesh and we splurged all on food. haha greedy us. and again ended up buying nothing. well i wanted to buy some stuff for my ipod initially but went to apple, saw the price and decided against it. think i'll get them from the pasa malam instead. haha and we went back to amk for dinner and met mommy and sister there. talk about coincidence. haha. len said that i looked very stressed throughout the whole day and wasnt my shopping self. well its probably the post exam stress. and can you imgaine i felt tired after shopping for a few hours. :/ gosh what happened to my stamina?? and i under-dressed. i looked awful and shabby standing beside len. im so gonna dress up in the future everytime i go town. i swear i will.

im gonna watch some videos now. long time since i caught up with my vcds at home. then after that, dinner. FOOD- My favourite gosh i sound no different than a pig!

my sister's laptop is so hard to use. i finally got through typing this post.

and can u imgaine the new blogger system does not allow exclamation marks?? what kind of lousy system this is. gooodddnnessss...

2007-03-10T00:20:00.000+08:00

STAYING OVER AT DARYL'S IS SUPER FUN!!!!!!!!!!! and we're not sleeping till like 3? haha

AND WE JUST CALLED ZKAI AND GWEI TO GOSSIP. LONG TIME SINCE WE DID THAT. GOSH HOW TIME FLIES.

So finally prelim a have ended today! well guess i did okay overall. i mean it was definitely much better than last year's. i'll definitely pass math, that's for sure. but edie said the whole level dared very badly. ha expected. guess i just have to keep the momentum of mugging and put in hard work consistently..

this coming hols is so not like hols at all please. have to go back to school everyday single day. literally. no kidding. cheena's taking up like 4 days. and the awful huge pile of english and chinese homework makes my hair stand with the mere thought of it.

and daryl's still playing maple now? dont know what's so fascinating abt that animated online game. hmm

going town with len and daryl tmr. long time since i've shopped and indulged. RETAIL THERAPY. My favourite! :)

Till then y'all. ~

2007-02-20T18:45:00.000+08:00

hey everyone! Happy CHINESE New Year!!! :) and may i emphasise (xcuse spelling pls) the CHINESE. yes that's when we all get oursleves tired with the hustle and bustle of visitng relatives, get ourselves stuffed with goodies, and the climax get the ang pows!!!

I've been like really really busy and tired out this cny. really. cny had never been so hectic for my family. starting from first day, we have been going everywhere the whole day and there seems to be never ending houses and relatives to visit. its like there's always programme at every moment of the day. finally today's the last day and all the friends have just left and we'll have the evening to ourselves. phew..

An overview of my eventful CNY

DAY 1: woke up at 7, went to church. Went home to prepare, drove to ah ma's house at 12. At 3, went to great-grandmother's house. At 4 30, left for popo's house and stayed till nine plus. went home and helped mum cooked for next day's visitation, opened ang pows. FINALLY PLONKED ON MY BED AT 3 am.

DAY 2: woke up at 8 30am. Renzie and family came over at 9 30 until abt 11 plus. and instead of following my family to visit my pastors, i stayed home cos i was simply too tired. and i slept and slept like a log. My family came home at 5 plus and woke me up to help prepare as my aunties uncles and cousins are coming over at 7. They came and i had quite a fun time. they left at 10 plus and we packed up and finished everything at 12. studied and surfed net for abt 1h plus and PLONKED ON MY BED AT 2am.

DAY 3: woke up at 8 again. visited renzie and family and came home at 11 plus to prepare for arrival of my and whore's friends, mum's ex-students at 1. they came slowly (one by one) yes some really took a long time to come. the latest came at 3. (hor gab?) and len and gab were the last to left at 5 30. went for teh with len before returning home at 6 30. packed up mopped fllor and tah dah - im here blogging.

oh daryl's back from HK. he just msged me. poor him, is a singaporean but cant get to expereince the spore' atmosphere of CNY. but lucky him, get to go overseas every CNY where we have to go around visiting relatives, enduring the hot and humid weather.

hmm actually come to think of it, my CNY is not really that hectic, as compared to some of my pals. oh wells. but here's my conclusion : CNY IS SUCH A CHORE!!! #@^%^*&$&*%# maybe except for the ang pows and goodies. but it seems like as i grow older, i get less excited about the money stuff and tend to tire myself out easily. oh yes im ageing. haha

right now, i so looking to a nice simple RELAXED dinner with my family (dad says he's gonna bring us out. Yes!). but before that, i better go bathe soon cos i smell replusive. im the rubbish dump's good friend. and then after dinner, its back to studying for tmr's vocab test and try to rush out homework left untouched for the last few days (i doubt i will even touch them). oh wells i need that precious i mark for prelim 1. much more the $70 topman voucher!!!

oh wells. Happy CNY and mug real hard ppl. and i mean REAL HARD!! prelim 1 is like next week !!! i better see an improvement in my results if not there go my wrists. haha just joking.

2007-02-07T22:27:00.000+08:00

Before i got started on my work, i thought of blogging an entry since i hadnt blogged for quite a long time. Oh wells! i've finally got my work in good working condition. and im actually progressing well in my schoolwork and revison! yays! (okay maybe except for physics)

GOSH. MY MUM JUST SCOLDED ME FOR SPENDING PRECIOUS TIME ONLINE (SHE DID IT LAST NIGHT TOO) INSTEAD OF DOING MY WORK AND ALL. SHE SAID THAT I COMPLAINED OF BEING TIRED YET IM BLOGGING. GOODNESS I NEED A BREAK TO RELAX MAN!!! ITS LIKE I'VE BEEN STUDYING THE WHOLE DAY AND IM LIKE SUPER FRIGGING TIRED PISSED AND CRANKY AND SHE STILL WANTS ME TO STUDY? WELL I KNOW THAT HER INTENTIONS ARE GOOD, BUT CMON IM JUST IN NO MOOD TO STUDY NOW CAN?!?!? AND IM A HUMAN TOO, SO THAT PROVES THAT I HAVE EMOTIONS, FEELINGS, MOODS AND I CANT ALWAYS BE THE PERFECT AND UNDERSTANGING TEENGAER OKAYS?

sometimes, i just wanna be the baddie with a really bad temper to defy everyone. with a really bad altitude and all... if only i was la huh. too bad im not. ):

fine. im in a really foul mood now and im so gonna FORCE myself to study.. TO DEATH!!!

2007-01-24T23:54:00.000+08:00

Aussie has truly brought back wonderful memories. I'll be back soon.. i promise. conquer my Os first man..

Sorry im feeling super random and didnt feel like doing any homework. haha super tired now. im like so dead, didnt study for amath test which is like tmr (i only knew today). haha oh wells. wish me luck and goodnight! :)

2007-01-20T21:53:00.000+08:00

I've finally got my life in order with my schedule and studies properly worked out. okay maybe not. but at least im pacing myself and taking things one step at a time. Since i've nothing else to talk about cos my life has been revolving around studies which is utterly boring and something that i dont wanna talk abt, i shall post up some pictures that this blog seriously lacks.

such a lil' cutie dont you think?

As you can see, im not exactly an expert at at putting up pictures on blog. this is actually my second time. haha yes im such a camwhore

CHRISTINA AGUILERA

Alrighty, enough pictures for now. enjoy the weekends and continue to work hard ppl! :) God Bless!

2007-01-17T00:35:00.000+08:00

yes i know i havent updated or even visited my own blog like in a gazillion years. its almost dead now (when was it ever not?). ok but since i just waited so long to update my itunes and i finished my blog surfing, i shall do a little updating before going off to lalaland.

I'M REALLY STRESSED AND TIRED!!!! well who isnt? every sc 4 in cat high is bombarded with neverending mountainous pile of schoolwork everyday. and on top of that, we're busy with cca and all and have pratically no time to complete them. even if we did, it'll would just barely and then there'll be no time for relaxation. Ohwells i guess we've no choice but to endure the torture cos prelim 1 is in like 6 weeks time?!?!? (yes i counted). scary aint it? so i guess i dont have the right to say im stress as some of my friends are worst off compared to me. im already one of the fortunate ones. haha.

i have a awesome group of teachers this year! and im so confident of grabbing those A1s!!! this is to compensate for the whorible teachers i had last years (fine they were more like good friends)

i better go off to lalaland soon. my eyelids cant keep open for long soon.

PS: im currently in love with RED!!! im just totally infatuated with everything thats RED and HOTT! THE RED SCANDAL and i have a a red handphone pouch.

alrighty i'll know never know when i'm free or have the mood to update again. with all busy schedule and frequent mood swings/crankiness. so heres to all : Take Care & Study Hard! (:

2007-01-02T15:33:00.000+08:00

WOW! In a twinkle of the eye, christmas is already over and we're already in the new 2007! whoo that's like so super fast and i didnt even get to blog a single bit about the tremdous fun i had over the past week.. oh wells i was really busy having fun. *geez* haha. the only not so fun thing was that i couldnt join in the countdown. haha nvm i prayed through the night.

so school starts tmr and im not even half way there through my work. well i dont even think any nerds completed the insanely mountainous pile of work that our teachers threw at us.. and majority of the students probably didnt even life a finger to start. so i guess i'll just chiong and see how much i can accomplished today. im trying my BEST okay. this year's gonna be a super challenging year.

My New Year Resolution: 1) Get to appointments PUNCTUALLY. 2) Save up money!!

alrighty, i better get going to attemt my lit essays and maybe 1 or 2 chinese compo.. i have an outstanding 30 lit essays, 4 chinese compos, loads of math and some chem phy.. well wish me luck!! ((:

i shall blog again tonight. i've got something special to say to all my loved ones. ;)

A Belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. God Bless! All the Best everyone!

This song is one of my all time favourites. Its an old 20s' 30's 40s' jazz and blues song with a modern day twist. It reflects the old Hollywood glamour screen sirens and what not. The song is really light hearted and fun to sing along. A real treat for those who appreaciate jazz and blues from that era. Enjoy! :)

Christina Aguilera

Candyman

Back To Basics

Candy man, candy man...Sweet sugar candy man [whispered]

I met him out for dinner on a Friday night

He really had me working up an appetite

He had tattoos up and down his arm

There's nothing more dangerous than a boy with charm

He's a one stop shop, makes my panties drop

He's a sweet-talkin', sugar coated candy man

A sweet-talkin', sugar coated candyman

Ooo yeah..

He took me to the Spider Club at Hollywood and Vine

We drank champagne and we danced all night

We shook the paparazzi for a big surprise

the gossip tonight will be tomorrow's headline

He's a one stop shop, make my cherry pop

He's a sweet-talkin', sugar coated candy man

A sweet-talkin', sugar coated candyman

Se bop bop

Hey yeah...

He's a one stop shop, makes my cherry pop

He's a sweet-talkin', sugar coated candy man oh

A sweet-talkin', sugar coated candyman

Woo yeah

right. now that i've the patience and discipline to blog, i shall. and finally no one lagginess for my com cos im using my destop. to hell with my tablet la. im so tempted to like crashed in into pieces and beg daddy to buy my the vaio lime green c13 laptop..

and guess what? i finally woke up at 8 today, after a wake up call from gab at 7 30. hah rushed down to school for meeting and later cip with gab and clement. 3 of us went together to do this council/cip thingy where we had to go to the nearby bishan blocks to collect old cds from the residents for our cash converter. yea i tell u we were like damn slow. many werent at home or only the maids or old grannies were around. and many didnt know abt this cd collection depsite us ssloting us flyers into their letterboxes a few weeks ago. this shows how much ppl check or read their mails.. and yea so we werent very fruitful and very sl0w. actually we only collected cds from 2 ppl but there were like 3 bags of them. oh wells we were supposed to do 6 blocks but we were allvery tired and time was running out. so we just went back to school. and mr ling was damn fast, he finished 3 blocks single-handledly in 1 1/2 hours while it took us 2 hours to finish 3 blocks with 3 ppl.. anyway the cds are mostly pirated but i coped back national treasure. hhaha

i left my wallet with clement and ended up walking around bishan to get it back to pay for my pathetic bubble tea. then rushed home to get changed for church to meet pastor sylvia. but obviously i was fashionaly late again. VERY this time. 45 min late. but she didnt mind. lucky for me man. then later had meeting with some of the youths to discuss for xmas party this sat.. then dance rehearal started and we danced again. and i was properlydressed so i had to take off my shoes again..

then it was dinner at kfc. i totally piged out like nobody's business and im totally regretting it now!! ): i had fatty chicken and went i was eating the last part, chang yuan told us that his cousin used to work in kfc and their hygiene was really terrible. like their kitchen floor was as dirty as a market's and if they dropped the chicken, they just simply pick it up and put it back ro fry.. ewww and after hearing this, i dumped the rest of the chicken away. i swear never to kfc chicken again. how long would that again be? hmm.. dance prac was alright. everyone danced pretty well but we gotta sing 2 more carols after that with clapping and leg actions.. as simple it may sound, its really tiring and i ended up lip syncing towards the end. and my clapping was offbeat and what not.. and we were very tired and aching everywhere after full dress rehearsal..

and now for Andrew's Christmas Wish List:

my very own sling bag (granted)
2 new bags
Vaio C13 lime green laptop (impossible oh wells)
1 new belt from topman (granted but not from topman)
retro shoes
bodyshop's golden apple products (granted very much)
new pair of slim fit jeans
more casual watch

aint i very greedy? i think so.

going to dad's office tmr for a fun day of some science's discovery playing rides thing and followed by xmas party in the night. proabably i'll have to behave myself very well from LTC anthony tan to look nice. haha so the first thing is not to have big panda eyes tmr..

Blessed Christmas! enjoy the last weeks of the hols! adieu~ love loads ((:

2006-12-21T00:35:00.000+08:00

IM RETRO. yes thank you very much.

spent a fufilling and enriching day shopping with gwei zkai daryl and phil. oh we totally love the shopping carolling (everywhere) bitching scandalising gossiping. its just like good ol' times man. if only we could travel back in time. how wonderful could that be.

so anyways we arranged to meet at 10 at bishan. then we changed to 10 30 cos as usual everyone woke up late. then as i was leaving the house, momma called us to do the laundry so sister and i rushed to wash the clothes. and poof i dashed out of the house. and decided to go down straight to harbourfront instead of going to bishan first. it was like 12 already then. im always fashionably late. so yea we shopped at vivo (no we didnt get lost) and bought super random and lame stuff (eg this plastic loud hailer and a cute chicken stuff toy) and i got pretty nail polish for sister. im such a nice brother hor? and so we we shopped and shopped and i saw my christmas presents. ate lunch at food republic which cost me $4 for a bowl of ba chor mee (note to self:dont buy that again) and we trained down to ikea cos daryl needed to buy dome stuff there.

well ikea was more fruitful i must say. first we looked around then pigout there. who know's sharing like 3 plates of food and snacking could cost up to $5 per person. then we shopped somemore and i decided to go on a crazy shopping spree and bought this lots of candle stuff. 100 tea candles anf candles holders. yea and i saw SOMEONE there. oh why must i see THAT person appear just when im gonna forget abt everything?

then cabbed back to bishan and that driver was overly talkative and we were all so annoyed. anyways we managed to bear with it and finally bishan we came back and then we went to body shop popular and ntuc and home i went.

im gonna stop here cos this com is so damn laggy. it took me like 15 min to start up and now its even lagging when i typed. and the missing 'k' key isnt maybe making things better. oh wells. i wonder if im able to wake up 7 30 tmr. ive been waking up past 9 30 for the last few day. rocks. i'll most probably oversleep and miss meeting again. and be fashionaly late again.

my house just experienced the 2nd blackout of the day. and my candles came in useful. cos actually just now i was like buring 3 candles in my room, one with aroma. and then momma came in and say that i was really unnecessary to burn so many candles (she's afraid something might catch fire) and then the short circuit came and poof all was darkness except my 3 small candles in my room. so small yet significant and useful. so it guided me dad and momma down the stairs to fix the situation. althought the light from sister's camera flash and com was much brighter, but my candles were important too.

right the lagginess of my com is whorible and i need to lalaland. and my com keeps prompting me to restart it. maybe it will solve this laggy problem.

sister just showed me her new and raw blisters from wearing her black heels. eeeekkkkk..

ok i cant take anymore of this lagginess. adieu~

(note to self: do the rest of the 36 lit essays)

2006-12-17T00:37:00.000+08:00

im like so dead. im supposed to be alseep now but im up blogging instead. like i've to wake up at 6 tmr to fry nuggets and fishballs for the kids at church. its their christmas party tmr and debra and i are in charge of the refreshment. well i guess this party only comes once a year so a bit sacrifice of sleep goes to prepare better food for the lil cuties.

and my poor egs are aching. 2 hours of dancing in church today is really strenuous. dancing is really a good way to work up. i've pretty much gotten all the steps except for some which i cant seem to remember. but fret not, for there's 5 hours of practise tmr. from 11 to 4. yes i know its totally insane. erm reality check, 5 HOURS OF DANCING!!! i dont know what will happen to my poor feet. i think i'll never be able to walk again. ok im exaggerating. yea anyway tmr's gonna be a long day for me, gonna spend the whole day in church before heading town to get gorgeous shades with sister.

and u know what? i've just wasted all my time reading joy luck club. cos the essays that i need to do requires me to read one story at a time and then write a few essays before moving on to the next essay. and i happily read the whole boon and forgot everything. so now i've to read everything all over again. story by story. haha im so dead again. and im still on my first story. there goes my 50% of lit ca1. and im still have 4 cheena essay. great im just gonna forget about all the work and enjoy christmas first. worry abt them later. it always happens hor?

and im so excited because i've so many christmas party this year and im enjoying them so much. time for presents and food ands carols again. la la la.. (:

i guess i better go. maybe a story and essay or 2 before going to lalaland. i shall go get changed first. just finished bathing. opps haha. adieu~

grandma's

2006-12-15T03:38:00.000+08:00

haha i swear im a nocturnal human. either that i was a nocturnal creature in my past life. its currently 3 40am.

today i spent a fun day at grandma's. it's been a long time since i last had so much fun with my 2 cousins, xuan and yang, and my beloved sis. yes i guess everyone truly enjoyed themselves.. In the morning, we swam in the pool and tanned before the stupid rain came and everyone was foced to return to the condo. so we decided that we should watch 'barbie in 12 dancing princesses' and ate lunch over the show. quite entertaining and kiddish with xuan constantly telling us the whole story and what will hapen next.. After lunch it was monopoly singapore edition. and guess what? i made everyone bankrupt!! and won the whole game!! first time ok. i was filty rich man. it all started with a hotel and it ended up that i owned literally everything in the monopoly game. haha shall post a picture of it next time. if only this could happen in real life.

After that everyone was pretty sian and went to read uncle's wide variety of magazines and we couldnt really much as uncle was drilling some stuff into the wall, so that noise was unbearable. then we showed us this fantasy movie called labyrinth. that was followed by dinner and arriving of parents, and home.. Oh yea xuan and yang got this new filipino maid which is like super sophsticated. She's quite smart and she's very good in numbers. she's quite fluent in her language and has this american slank. She enjoyed herself playing monopoly with us too. and of cos watching tv with us and singing as and when she likes. (just like me) She likes to talk alot too. the funniest thing is that she too reads the fashion and gossip mags and pretty much appreciated them too. its the first them ever i've seen a maid reading mags. haha.

well i had a fun day. and its studying in the day for me tmr and christmas party in the night. yipees. i better go catch a nap before i get cranky during math lesson tmr. its currently 4am night. adieu.

2006-12-13T23:12:00.000+08:00

Hey all! im here to blog again. Today has been a great and fun day in short (excuse me for my limited vocab once again).

Had math lesson at noon and i managed to complete half a amath paper. hmm at this rate im going, im suprised to say that im might be able to complete all my holiday hw (excluding lit's 37 essays)

ok my door just opened by itself. i've asked and no one in my family opened it. omg this is freaky. haha whatever. -_-

yea so anyway len met me outside school and we went to j8 for me to change into something more suitable for town and to get my shilin chicken lunch. and we trained down to Ps for me to get my presents. well actually our purpose for this shopping trip is to get everyone's presents and get it done over with. getting presents for friends can be quite cool and fufiling, but also troublesome to have to think of what to get for every individual. but luckily we got everything planned and let's say that our shopping trip today was fruitful and focused. we settled everyone's presents (except the wrapping part where len and i both suck. Sister Help!)

met tawan so coincidentally at dhoby and arranged to dinner together later. So we went into body shop bought everything excpet the building and the lady (who appeared so nice and friendly) tricked me into buying another shower gel by using business tactics. and stupid me felt for her trick though len tried to warn me in the best way. then we went to aussino to get some more gifts. (:

Then we went trained down to orchard to get len's fair share of presents. we thought we could meet his bro on the way as he was doing cip but didnt in the end. so we went to far east as planned and got stuff from 77th street, len's aunty's shop, and some ahlian shop which sells accessories. i havent been to far east for a long time and that place is like so ahbeng ahlian. not to offend anyone or anything but that place seriously caters more to the yea u know.. i guess u must really know where to go there. and they have 3 77th streets shops, one on each level? then to newbie to get a cute cartoon shirt. walked to wheelock later to check up some ipod stuff and got into nike and adidas shop. (note to self: i must bring momma down to wreck the shop!)

after all the shopping, we were hungry. so we decided to Lc abit and went back to amk for dinner as the food in town is relatively more expensive. we were all feeling broke. so it was dinner and to my house tawan rushed to catch his project superstart and to wrap the presents. i tell u tawan was so crazy abt that show that he rushed us all the way from amk to my house. never have i seen we tawan so urgent before ok. but he still missed his fav contestant singing. haha. len and i were wrapping in the mean time. and conclusion, we need wrapping classes! our wrappng was whorrible i tell u. and all we knew was only one method which was equally bad and all our presents are wrapped either in a very odd or slanted way. it was so funny kept cracking jokes. and len kept saying we "got an idea" and turned out. nah. haha. the nicest one was the most LC one where we just folded all the edges and scotched tape everything. haha and home they went.

well going out with len is always fun. but he has a totally diff style of shopping. he'll plan everything and do focus shopping. and he's like super decisive. unlike me who'll take the a long time to buy a simple thing. yea but shopping with len is stressful (he was stressed shopping with me too!) and fast (he was faster than the hustle and bustle of life). yea so we kinda bought everything in like 3+ hours which is like a record timimg for me. haha. what a wonderful experience i had. ((:

This were the presents that i bought (not saying for who of cos) :

5 bottles of golden apple/cranberry shower gel from body shop
aussino bath towel
1 wristband from 77th street
wrist accessories from some cheapp ahlian shop
1 newbie shirt
2 spongebox joeboxers (god bless the lucky receiver)

i may not have bought alot of things. but i've certainly spent a bomb today. goodness $60++ all spent on friend's presents. still have to get for family somemore. i think i should stop spending money on food and save every cent i have.

typing such a long entry is rather irritating as my 'k' key on the keyboard has decided to pop out a few days ago. and typing is made difficult for everyone. i want the new vaioc13-green laptop *hint*. shall post up christmas wish list next entry. ;)

adeiu.

2006-12-06T17:04:00.000+08:00

Today has indeed been a boring day so far. It started off in the morning with math lesson and i dragged myself out of bed and daddy drove me to school. yea but the lesson wasnt as boring as i thought it would be. i managed to complete an amath revison paper. yays! so 1 down and 4 more to go. right. haha

then daddy came to pick me up and went for a hair makeover. haha then sembawang hill it was for lunch. fried fish soup is yummy. after lunch we came home and i read ephesians chapter 2 for bs later at novena.. yup so thats pretty much what i did for today..

something frightening and shocking happened yesterday outside ps and it was certainly an eye-opener for me. but yes it was scary. okay here it goes. lennart and i met ke at dhoby ghout station to have dinner at ps. after we exited the station, we were at the side of ps at the open space and there's actually an corridor (where all the postboxes are) to bring u into ps. when we were crossing through this open space, this grp of teenage school dropouts came to approach us and harshly asked us for doantion for charity (an idiot would know its fake). this big built ah beng approached ke while this chinese national (i shall be nice here) came pulling my bag when we rejected and hurried off. so i brushed her off asking her to let go and she did. she we just hastened into the corridor.

but the guy did not give up and continued chasing us (like what's his problem) and then he was very flushed and he cornered ke near the postboxes and started hurling insults and vulgarities at ke in hokkien. "scared ah? come and fight la" etc and of cos ke rebutted back by trying to reason things out with him but in a fierce manner. "i dont want to donate" "im just coming here to have my dinner" "come la i scared ah?" etc.. he even pushed ke on the chest (yea i know outrage of modesty) and i was like stunned with shocked and fright and didnt know what was the best thing to do in a situation like that. should i shout for help, push the guy away, drag ke away, try and reason things out, go get help. what? i didnt want to get physically involved as it would make matters worst. but instead i just stood quietly behing them and giving ke moral support (haha) and in case he dared to use physically insults. but i tried my best to remembered his face in case of any indentification needed. and his friends caught up after what seemed like hours (which was only seconds) and tried to pull him off. i ticked the china girl off and told her to get that guy away. fearing that i would file a police report against them, she hastily obliged and they tried to pull the guy away. and until thr last moment, that guy was still cursing and swearing as ke and us strutted away into ps. and of cos ke 'bitched' him back haha.

anyway later len told us that he knew alot abt these things as he's acutall one of the so called 'cid' in charge of the north district. but too bad ps was in the central and he was not 16 yet and didnt not bring his pass with him. if not he could have stop those ppl and demanded their letter of proof and if they didnt have (which of cos they didnt), he could report against them. so len called up his boss and reported the incident len's boss filed a report against that company. well ke actually told us that he had encounted a few of these experiences already but none were as persistant as this one. and these companies acutally asked all these school drop-outs to help to ask for donation, where in turn the'll would receive a certain amount of money. no wonder they were so persistant. oh wells what an experience i had. and i'm not going to ps for the whole of next week or so. better be safe than sorry. esp if you're going alone. so look out ppl! dont be taken in so easily and be on your guard always! be alert and know what to do at all times (unlike me).

alrighty, i better go get ready for bs at novena. what's worst is that i'll come home having to face my dreadest dread: PACK MY STUDY AREA. goodness that place is just like a pig sty and i wouldnt even know where to start. andand tmr len ke and gek are coming over to do hw and to have monopoly showdown!(haha after the last time len went bankrupt he wasnt happy). andandand i've so much hw left to complete but at least i've started with amath. but yea tmr's gonna be a fun day with friends! right i better go get changed. adieu~ ((:

2006-12-05T05:04:00.000+08:00

It is currently 5 02am now. You must think that im mad to blog at this unearthly hour. yes actually in fact i am. blame it on the fact that i drank english tea at like 11 last night and went to sleep at 1 am after watching doa with the family. and i literally woke up after every hour only to be disappointed by the fact that time passes so slowly.. normally we wish that we could sleep longer, this time i wished that morning would hurry and arrive. well hopefully i'll be able to catch some sleep after this and still be able to wake up at 7 30 later. if the tea effect wears off and my body gives in to the fatifue (im actually very tired right now), im totally doomed. sadly yes :(

i think im suffering from overseas holiday withdrawal symptoms. i seem to mis malaysia?!? no more of the shopping and carefree holidaying mood actually. if only i can stay there and shop and eat and shop and eat and shop and eat for the whole holiday. how fun would that be man. well but that might not be such a good idea as firstly i'll go broke and secondly i'll explode from growing till a size larger than pig. so yea i guess its back to reality.. sadly yes again :((

speaking of which, im reminded of my untouched holiday which i dread ever the most. there are tons and tons of them waiting to kill me. evil them. there's 30++ lit essays, 4 cheena compos, 2 physics wks, 1 chem and phy spa wks, and 10++ sets of math and amath papers. how irritating right. the thought of them just totally spoils my mood and day and i feel so annoyed. if only there's a shortcut way to gain knowledge and practice WITHOUT having to do work. wow then i guess the whole world must be full of geniuses.. anyway enough crapping, i've gotta get my ass down to work and enjoy this festive holiday!

andand i miss Factory Outless Store (FOS) in kl.. if only i live in the store or something. and get all the abercrombie and fitch tees and banana republic tees for free everyday. gosh!!! anyway it nice to shop there as for once, the stuff there are truly branded and the prices are not to pretty too. haha im feel like im so branded man. yea and the the sell almost all types of clothing, ranging from tees, to jeans, to slippers. and i bought a A&B slippers there too. haha so yea go visit that place if u ever plan a holiday in kl (im not sure of they only have the stores in kl or everyday part)

there are just so many things that i plan to say it in here but i just cant seem to remember now that im really typing everything down in here.. hmmm

oh yea, 'Where Rainbows End' by Cecelia Ahern is a really interesting and emotional book (ok its not really that emotional but i've just a short range of vocab). its kinda touching too and chicish. quite a relaxing content and style of writing where reading can be enhanced as a hobby. there's a like sense of humour too. unlike 'Joy Luck Club' where the everything there's just about superstitions, cheena english and most of all IRONIES which i always fail to detect. haha yea. 'Where Rainbows End' is about 2 childhood bestfriends, Rosie and Alex. they grew up together and becos of fate, the get separated physically. (alex in boston and rosie stays in dublin) but still they came in contact all the way as they grew from teenagers into adulthood. soon reality stikes they face issues like marriage, financials difficults, jobs and they realise that both of them still love each other deeply after all these years and they rconcile together. (i made the last part up as im only halfway through) . yea so that's my short and horrible summary of 'Where Rainbows End'

i should really brush up on my language skills and typing effiency. seeing how i cant describe myself using more sophisticated words and how i keep typing the wrong letter really scares. this is the downside of being on a holiday and slacking too much. sorry for all the typo errors which i fail to detect and for my 'extensive' words.

ok i've rumble far too long. i should really go close my eyes now and try to drift off to lala land. oh yea and pls leave a tag if u still visit this blog of mine so that i know that im not writing to nobody but myself. thanks loads (:

terima kasih & jumpa lagi (thank you & come again) see i've also picked out a new language in a holiday. haha. it is currently 5 02 am.

malaysia trip.

2006-12-04T03:41:00.001+08:00

im feeling so very sleepy right now but i just cant get to sleep. must be past my sleeping timing. so anyways i had a fun and interesting in kl though it was just for 2 days. ;)

a summary of what we did: SHOP. EAT. SHOP. EAT.. AND SHOP AND EAT. yes im not kidding. that's what we did for 2 whole days. i think my tummy gonna's burst from all the fats bulging out. and i seriously need a 2nd and 3rd wardrobe as my my current one is overflowing with abundance of tops and what have you.. so yea's thats pretty much how much i ate and bought. i think i bought like 20++ tops over these year. gee time to save money huh.

and i got to see my aunt who's a nun and whom i havent seen since new year. well she's doing great and we surprised her by calling up on her in jb, requesting if she's available then. well at first she said she's at a friend's place but of cos she drove down later to meet us. she took us to this eating place (something like chomp chomp) and the food there's great. except that the entrance stood a very playful kitten who was like chasing something, jumping around, and which wasnt afraid of humans, and which got me all jelly. yes and so sister and i did the most comical thing ever to put our legs up on another chairs and that won us loads of stares. but who cares? no one knew us and we knew no one. the stingray, mee, rojak etc was delicious. but just dont ever try the SUGARCANE DRINK! gosh it tasted awfully sweet and obviously artificial. so different from the fresh hand-squeezed sugercane in spore.. well what a experience.

and there's a jam at the immgration at usual. and oh we experienced a mini jam at the express highway between malacca and johor. there was this accident involving 8 cars (both malaysia and singapore cars) and it must be pretty serious as the cars were bring tolled away and the passengers were all outside trying to call for help or sos i guess. luckily no one got hurt but i wonder how the singaporeans are gonna come home with their car damaged. it would really cause them to have a phobia in ever to come into malaysia again. haha. anyway we got home safely la. ((:

will try to post up pics really soon.. not many cos we were busy shopping and eating. well and if the stupid com come up with a program to suit a my camera. until then, it shall be pictureless. i must really be going off into slumberland as i've a hectic shedule this week with lots of appts and shopping trips with various clips of ppl. plus i gotta watch my newly bought dvds, do my holiday hw (esp math sigh) and attend lessons (yes i know it spoils the mood). yea so i better get a rest after this tiring 2 days of continuous shopping and eating. its is currently 4am. goodbye. (:

2006-11-30T02:38:00.000+08:00

hmm blogging twice in the same day? that's unusual.. well its not really the same day as the time is like 3am?? yep its rightfully it should be already be thurs.. but i still feel wed. ahh whatever.

and anyways NEW SKIN!!!! like finally after such a long wait!!! yep so i thought this would be a good change from all the fairytales and fantasies stuff. you know those stuff can be quite a bore after some time. was actually looking something on the line on "vintage" "glamour" "retro". yea my usual glam stuff. i scanned through many and most of either too girlish or just plain fugly.. yes im not kidding, so im just fugly to the core. yes so i chanced upon this and decided these 2 pais of shoes picture is just right and it would be simple yet elegant. huh that what i was looking for. so after 20 min of searching of blogskins i've finally found the right one. though shaun said it didnt really suit my personality but i thought why not i'll give it a try. its quite sweet hor?? (: haha anyway loads thanks to wen bin our expert in blogs who helped me to organise everything all in one night, from the template to the publishing and everything else. really thanks alot bin, i couldnt do anything without your generous help. :) and also thanks to zheng mou who gave helped immediately to resize and to edit the picture. havent publish the edited picture though.. haha. so in short, im very happy to have my blog revamped and many thanks to my beloved friends! ((:

Had math lesson today by the old boys. i thought the lesson was a good revision on my amath trigo. and boy did i forget almost everything.. not actually everything. haha. but he was really paitent and told us to pratice all the trigo questions in our hw by fri.. and that's alot mans. i think i gonna puke.

after math was hawkerway with len.. gosh it felt so great just talking to him and sharing with him all my deep darkest secrets, and he told me his also.. its like after so long u've got a true friend to confide in and will understand what you're going through and all.. aww..

acutally i wanted to write something nice about my sister.. i just had a chat online with one of my online buddies and we chatted about our siblings and stuff and how good is it to have them. and it got my thinking my very own beloved sister andrea.. haha she's like sleeping like a pig now (who isnt at this hour) yea i just wanna say that i love my sister loads. and that im grateful and thankful to God for giving me such a caring and loving sister into my life to take care of me and to be a part of this family. She has certainly been more than a sister to me, rather a sister and good friend who understands. yes she might not be perfect and we do quarel and she does seem unresonable at times, but hey who's prefect in this world? Andrea has been taking care of me since i was borned and she was 3 years? imgaine having a to take care of someone at the age of 3? but she loved me all the same and as i grew up, she showered those unconditional love unto me and never once did she stop caring for me. it was until very much later that i started to appreaciate this lovely sister in front of me. She often forgave me for the hurt that i inflicted or caused on her and she always encourages me. There might be fights and annoyances along the way, but those are just silly stuff that we do that make us stronger and better siblings. i remember she always took care and gave in to me in the little ways that she could afford to and she would always ensure that i was alright, even till now when we're out together. truly i enjoyed her company very much doing those super fun stuff (gossiping, going out together, etc) and somehow i cant imagine life without her. *choy touch wood* haha. ok im outta words so i guess i just wanna say "cheh cheh thanks you very much and i love you loads!!" haha ((:

i have another math lesson with seow wee tmr at 11am. and maybe to town with serene tmr to gossip. haha and she still hasnt replied my mshg.. haiyo that serene ah.. anyways i wonder if im able to wake up tmr at 8? am still going to brunch with philip at 10? goodness gracious i wonder how to wake up tmr. and the time now is like 3 20 am??

this is has been am emotional entry for me and i hope everyone who still visits my blog appreciates my writing. haha tatas~

autumn allure

Omg i swear i need a new skin for this dead blog man. actually i have been browsing through some blogskins.com and have found as some nice and suitable skins. hmmm i'll probably engage the help of my wonderful and helpful friend called bin. haha and i may even change the add of my blog, as in recreate a whole new blog la. this is kinda dready and the name is like so sec 1ish.

Well life has been pretty much boring yet fun. have been staying home pretty much this few days, except for the occasional math lessons or choir pracs in school. other than that, it is just maybe some trips to the movies, shopping and house visitation. yep so so its kinda like slacking this hols away and being all relax. but the huge amount of homework just bores ppl and spoils my day whenever i think of it. goodness will it ever be able to finish them. i have been sleeping at ungodly hours in the wee hours of the morning like everyday, and waking up in the late morning/noon where the everyone is already at work. this is what i called PERPETUAL INGUDULGENCE. (:

right. i've got nothing much more to say. moreover there's no hot gossips in the hols to scandalise about. hmm yes life is quite boring afterall. but somehow i seem to enjoy it, watching the hustle and bustle of life while i stay out of it. maybe the lifestyle after retirement is similar. well who knows? only the foggies can tell u. 45 years more to reitrement! YEs! it might seem like a long time but its acutally not. im 1/4 way there. haha

its so obvious that my english writing standard has deproved tremdously. i cant even write a sentence with a proper structure. goodness english class is a urgent need of mine now. must be from all the broken cheena-translated sentences in the aunties and ah mahs from 'Joy Luck Club'. speaking of which, i've finally conquered THAT hideous book and am gonna embark on my 16 essays. yes no joke. haha.

goodbye and enjoy the hols while it lasts! ((:

2006-10-21T01:21:00.000+08:00

blogger is being laggy and dumb. and lags my com too slowly.

oh gosh im blogging again after like 2 months? haha i can conclude that im a lazy pig who cant bring myself to even blog abt anything, even after the finals'. yes indeed.

IM PROMOTED!!!

yes i am. and it was really a sign of relief for me when i passed english. considering the fact that i failed my math and sciences (that's how whorible i am in my studies). but on a brighter note, i clinched a distinction for lit and cheena (i dont know how and i still hate the subject) and i passed averagly for comb humans. i did pretty well for ss but it was the stupid geog that pulled my grade down.

well anyway congrats to those who did well or exceeded their expectations in this exam.

so the last 2 days were intensive script-checking. i dont kn0w how we managed but we did. it was hell tiring and it was like cramming every subject, paper after paper and just spending our whole day in the hall doing nothing but checking scripts. moreover for ppl like me who failed 4 subjects, its really quite a huge blow to get back everything only to realize u failed everything. well i kinda expected it anyway, but still. its mind boggling and emotionally straining.

i didnt think i would take my results so seriously esp a math which i always claimed it was a big joke. but i guess i did. yesterday and especially today, during the checking of papers. i felt just so depressed and disappointed with myself. a sense of fatigue overwhelmed me as i forced myself to maintain my composure. i mean i've already tried my best and worked hard over this year. and is the result i get? am i still not used to sec 3 life? whilst all my peers are scoring and aiming for their As? and im still trying desperately to pass? IMPOSSIBLE. something must be wrong, i thought to myself. but i've tried everything possible and nothing seems to be working right for me. i shallnt go into the details, but in general i could do less than half of the paper for the math and sciences. why? i ask myself? is it because i dont understand the content? not enough practice? or i simply aint cut out for math and sciences? i dont know. why does most ppl in my class who studies under the same environment and have the same teachers ace? but im definitely not giving up since God and everyone did not give up on me..

another issue im upset about is that some ppl are just so fast in their learning and absorbing information and some are just plain "tyco" while i have neither and i've literally cracked my brains trying to mug for this finals'. i started mugging as early as a month before the exams and i did intensive revision almost everyday. but why can someone who doesnt do anything in school, doesnt pay attention, doesnt do assignments and work, and has a very bad attitude, possibly achieved As and Bs in thes exams? does he have some extra power or did he work hard for it? i feel that this is so unjust. im just someone who's the exact opposite, i work hard and do my work regulary but i failed everything. just great.

Also, i felt that i've let down and disappointed my teachers especially sister seow wee, math teacher. i mean all of them work very hard since the beginning of this year to aim for us to fufill our fullest potential in this exam. and yet i came back with this kind of shit results. i've not done to my fullest potential, i know myself. and seow wee especially has worked tremdously hard and have forked out extra effort for our class especially the few of us when many a times, we offered us remedials lasting till the night and we'll the only souls in the schools. and even so she cared so much for us and kept reprimanding us and piling us with work, with the mere intention of helping us. However what we returned her was complains, being rude, talking and not paying attention during math and alas, scoring this kind of 'pig-also-dont-want-' results. Though seow wee isnt the best teacher in the school, but i've feel that she'd tried her best and is the most dedicated teacher i've and will ever meet in my whole entire edcation life. how i wish we could return to those math lessons and for once appreciate her scolding and her actions of silliness and not gossip abt her and criticising her, but really pay attention, see pass her inperfection and just learn and benefir from her. i hope that she'll still be teaching us next year. really. i've truly let all my Dear and Wonderful teachers down. but they've not given up one all of us. i wonder if i can ever be so loving and generous.

i think God is trying to teach my a valuable lesson and allowing me to fall once and to learn the hard and painful way. i've been rather distracted this year and been not really focus in my studies. i've not hungered and craved for the results so badly. though i claim to be a really consciencious(spelling sucks) student, im really not. i claim to do my work .but i loathe practising math. the only thing i ever does at home is to looking through my work and to squander all my time away doing useless stuff. and also i've been dissnering out in the recent months and returning home only after 9 many times. i think God is giving me a hard wake up call (a slap on my face) and telling me to find the direction in life and to be focus in my studies and to be more centred in him to have the christian strength and faith that all things are possible with God.

Well but its no use looking and sulking and regreting over the past. after letting our my frustration and reflection upon myself. i've decided that i'll work extra hard this hols (i've already started by organising my work for the hole year) and i work extra hard next year to ace in the first prelim. i will and i must! since God, my parents and sister, my techers, my peers, did not give up on me and have been encouraging me all the way to move on and try again (esp daddee), i will excel to my fullest and best potential. the promotion to sec 4 is an indication that no one had given up on me. and for that im truly appreaciative. and also the teachers have already planned so many remedials for the weaker students during the hols. just look at how serious and concered are they for us. love you teachers!

i also wanna encourage those that fail english/might be reatain. i know neither any one wanted this to happen. and what matter is that u've tried your best and have no regret. im sure the teachers will put a good word in for you if u've truly worked hard and have a good attitude. so All the Best! (:

this had been byfar, one of the most reflective and darkest entry i've every written.

i signed off as edie brit for the situational (yes it was me) and mneo have to go and mention in during the comments. all those around me who knew me turned and starred at me and i was caught dead, not sure to look embarrased or to pull it off glamourously, in the end it was a mixture of both. dont ever do it. "i vividly remember a student signing off as a character from desperature housewives, edie brit" yes she watches that american drama. and i failed my argumentative as i over generalise and commited many other mistakes.

taking exams in the hall is acutally quite cosy after all, with the warm lights and hugging your wooly sweater cos of the dumb winter aircon. but checking the papers in there for the whole day sucks big time.

so i guess im going to work doubly/triply hard during this hols. nothing else but mug and mug and mug and mug. ok maybe with a occasional shopping trip to destress. haha. (:

my english standard have indeed backslided alot till the point where i cant even use a wide variety of vocab to describe the feelings that i've evoked. how sadding. this is due to the lack of reading so im gonna read more during the hols. i couldnt do descriptive essay during the exam and i'll make sure i attained a flowery and a flare for the subject next year.

its 202 am now and i have to wake up early tmr as ke and lennart are coming to my royal castle. well i'm having insomia now. "rejected so-chai marble gang"

i remember i wanted to say something but i just forgot what is it. darn and god knows when im gonna blog again.

phew. ok i think this is a long enough entry and i dont think anyone even will read until here. considering that my blog is deserted and that no one of right mind would want to hear me rambling all the way till this point. but if u've reading till here, tag so that i know who really bothers about this glamourous life of andrew. who knows? i may see a hundred tags tmr. ha fat hope.

im kind of rambling, crapping, and being random aint i? oh well. i just...

we ride. JO-LU.

ending holidays

2006-09-09T13:33:00.000+08:00

Was blog surfing and decided to blog an entry, since the last time i did was like one week ago..

The thought of having to return to school on mon simply irrks me.. Its like the hols have ended in a flash and i didnt even get into the right mood.. And worst is, i havent even touch my books yet and i've just wasted this holiday indulging and enjoying myself. Guess i'll have to work extra hard this coming term and really get my butt down to work. On second thought, at least i enjoyed and had a good rest from the torturess school.. oh wells.

A MATH AND CHEM SUCKS BIG TIME. IM NOT KIDDING.

the last 2 days was such a joke, study group with philip. On Thu, we went to cartel to study a math and chem and ending up gorging ourselves with food. oh goodness. and we tried studying. but no, nothing could go in and everything seemed so difficult and foreign to us. So after many hours of lauhging, gossiping, eating, and trying to study. we gave up. well at least we TRIED okay.
On Fri, we went to yakun (we ate first) at thomson plaza and this time we were smarter, we decided to tackle chem (yes again) and emath this time. chem was again greek to us although we understood abit of the theory. so we decided to leeave that for the teahcers when school reopens. And then it was emath, it was rather ok and we did 7 questions before it was 6 and we decided that we had a long day and went to hans to indulge oursleves again. aint we piggy.. ? will try to upload some pics next time :)

Candid Shot

I'm gonna take my ic photo later and then heading down to Apple HQ to change my earphones and to fix my annoying itunes+quicktime problem. its such a bug.

this has been one of my shortest post.

welcome back to reality ppl.

music is the source of enjoyment. agreed.

adios.

back to basics

2006-09-01T19:48:00.000+08:00

yes i know my blogskin sucks.

does anyone even read this boring blog of mine? i dont think so.. and yet i'm still wasting time in front of my com blogging, when i could've done something more constructive like watching tv or sleeping. err whatever.

so i got back my results. and yay i failed only 2 subjects this term. one of which is a damn 49!! and the other is a 43. not too bad huh? considering the fact that i failed like 3 subjects last term with only 30 and 40 plus marks.. My goal for next term is to pass everything and to get As and Bs for those already passed subjects. Think it can be done? i've have to work extra triply hard. you know, just when my math saw the light, my chem fell into darkness.. its so depressing isn't it? well i guess thats the poor life of a student like me. and that i have to suffer, oh wells.

Teachers' Day celebration was such a blast. but the preparation and reheasals were dead tiring.. yea so anyway the celebration was so awesome cos of my ever-so-nice acting. (bows waves and smiles shamelessly). yea it was my first time acting in front of the whole school and i was like really nervous. but i guess i pulled it off pretty nicely (oh blame the mike for not working properly). well everyone did. i just love my emotions during the skit. its just that maybe i'll have to improve on my stage presence and my position, cos my coughhottcough butt kept facing the audience. haha. But after the celebration, many teachers came to praise me for my marvellous acting and i was like so honoured. ahh. i just love mrs tang when she told me that i was a born actor and that i didnt even show a tinge of nervourness when i was actually super nervous.. ok i must stop being self shameless and indulging..

and i just simply thrilled by my presents for my wonderful teachers. i gave all the female teachers except ms tan HAND-MADE earrings cos she said her ear hole had closed.. so i made her a sweet flower necklace instead. it was all so pretty. well i hope all the teachers really liked my presents.. mine seem to be the only one that was hand-made.. haha. i gave the male teachers chocolates cos i couldnt think of other stuff to buy or to make for them. and i typed a sweet little note for every teacher.. aww aint i appreciative of my teachers??

the hols are coming really really really soon. (it already started for me) and i plan to use the time to catch on my studies and rejuvenate myself at the same time. oh i mist plan my schedule well manns.

i went on a a literature and cultural heritage tour today. with mommy of course. its been a long time since we had mother-and-son bonding. yea so today we went to my skin clinic and then i went for a new hairstyle. then we went to bras besah complex (is that the shopping centre's name) and went to those small indian bookshop (the shop owners are indian, they dont sell indian books) yea and popular. it was actually to search for my lit novel "Joy Luck Club" but in the end i was enthralled by the various short stories like "To Kill a Mockingbird" and "Animal Farm" and went in search for them as i havent read them yet *yea slap me now*. This also brought back memories for mommy as she didnt lit when she was in sec sch also we began searching for the books in those old slump of books. found them eventually but decided against it as many of them were old secondhand and the price wasnt that cheap. tried national library which was just next door but apparently they didnt have any on loan.. what a lousy library.. so i ended up buying joy luck from popular, 3 archie comics from the indian bookshop and borrowed a charmed from the library.

Then we walked to Arab Street which was just abt 2 busstops away and began exploring kampong glam for ratten pinic baskets.. so we passed by many fabrics silk cottons satin etc shops selling those beatiful sari, shawls, scarfs and dresses and what have you. they were just GORGEOUS, MAGNIFICENT.. they just had this intricate design that made them so GLAM (ok i ran out of words).. you must really see them for yourself.. after searching far and wide for baskets, we found a few shops but decided against it cos of the costly price.. went to ya kun for high tea and back to bishan to pick up our car and to fetch sis.

WHAT A DAY I HAD.

i just forgot what i wanted to say.

oh and get Christina Aguilera's "BACK TO BASICS". its really nice and its worth it. its totally different from STRIPPED. yea and it really showed off her vocal range style and everything and it protrayed as a change and married classy lady. yea so get it now! (i borrowed from ke though).

it had been such a long time since i had such a long post. and now my poor and tried fingers need a break. adios everyone!

And to all my Wonderful, Nice, Caring, Sweet, Adorable, Loving and Dedicated teachers: HAVE A VERY HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY!! GOS BLESS YOU ALWAYS!!! :)

Too Little Too Late

2006-08-16T21:50:00.000+08:00

Yes, its WHORACIOUS. goodness gracious, its like i'm failing everything except for chinese, math, and (hopefully) english and lit. okay so i only failed a math, physics and chem..

But these are what can determined a pass or fail grade for me. so i better get my ass to work soon. yea very soon

Random-ness.

2006-08-04T00:40:00.000+08:00

This is so random.

Time-Check: 12 35am. goodness its already past midnight and im only halfway through macbeth when lit common test is like tmr.. this computer keeps distracting me. So its not my fault entirely. yea right.

I love to equivocate. I love playing with words. Pun intended. Yes, there was pun and equivocating in the last sentence.

okay i think lit is really getting too much into my brain.. and besides i have phys first common test first period which i hardly touched on.. God Bless me.

The past few subjects were pretty ok and easy. Yes all except for A MATH. well expected. when was a math easy? like never was, never is and never will be. yea so even teachers said that this is not an easy paper and there're probably be many many and i mean many failures.. guess i'm not alone. haha. This common tests was supposed to help us in our overall grade la. WTH?!?!

ok nvm. Its the caffine from the nescafe thats kepping me wide awake.. i better go finish my lit and drift off to slumberland.. maybe i'll just sleep during the paper phy paper la huh.. gosh

Time-Check: 12 45.. Goodbye

2006-07-29T01:24:00.000+08:00

I seriously have been wanting to blog.. to be able to talk about a certain significant event, or to just pen down my thought. well guess im to lazy :/ It STILL comes down to laziness.. its just part of me..

have been really busy (that's what i always say) with all the homework, extra lessons, remedials and killers class tests.. yea its really hateful. but what to do? this is a typical life of a student.. on top of that, there's still other commitment like slb and choir, preparing for the ch musical.. so yea i've been quite busy...

and on top of that, i'm playing maple once again.. and you know that game is quite addictive with all your friends and stuff.. great 1 week before the common tests and im saying all this. and im not doing anything to stop it.. im so dead.

Yea so common tests is next week. Languages always come first before humans and the dreadful math.. its of an advantage and disadvantage..

of course, i've been finding GOLDEN oppunities for me to indulge and to have a nice relaxation :).. if not i'll definitely be dead by now..

I've got so much to talk abt.. but i seem to be suffering from old people syndrom.. yea so maybe next time i blog a whole novel or something. after common tests probably, with all the reviews and announcements of marks.. haha.

I JUST CANT WAIT FOR THE COMMON TESTS AND END-OF-YEARS TO COME AND GO!!!!!!!! GOSH IM GOING INSANE!!!!!!!!!

just wanna congratulate ajchoir for clinching the Champion Award at the choir olympics at xiamen last wed. really a prestegious achivement and regonisation. Well Done and All the Best ppl! :)

Its 1 30am and i better go teachers r tryingto jam in revisions into our heads at the last moment. I have phy (8 to 10), chem (10 to 11) and math (11 30 to 12 30).. not sure if its gonna be productive, lets all hope so as this is my only chance to salvage my horrible academic situation now.. and theres still ndp preview in the evening.. Looks like studying is to be left till sun to be rushed.. Good luck me then! May God Bless Me!

Study Hard and All the Best for common tests everybody! adios. toodles.

at least i blogged k. im going back to my maple. haha

and i still desperately want/need a new skin for this dying blog.. someone help!!

blackcrumpler. i saw u once. its a fairytale.

Back to School

2006-06-26T02:10:00.000+08:00

have been wanting to blog during the last week of the hols but im just plain lazy -_-..

school's like starting tmr again. im kind of eexcited to see my friends and stuff but, but kind of also dreading it cos i know that i'll have to work doubly try hard (esp math and physics) for this term.. but reality has to come, so i shall put aside whatever feelings and just do what i have to do. Yes thats the right spirit manns! :)

I must say that i've truly enjoyed this hols even though i didnt travel overseas (like some lucky ppl). there's always fun stuff to do around! so i caught a couple of movies, went out SHOPPING a few times, had midnight conferences, made new friends (whoo!) and went back to school for lessons and council (ok maybe the last 2 werent that fun).. yea but well im truly sastisfied! i'll blog abt some of my 'adventures' when i feel like it.

i miss MGS Strikeback! Camp la. we had so much fun and its was so fufulling and enjoying.. and how couldnt i miss st nicks SLC convention? why why why? im so regreting not going and i didnt even know thats such thing in the first place. ok maybe philip tried to tell, but i simply brushed the matter off. boy WHY WHY WHY? huh? tell me!

CANNON! couldnt make it for movie on thu and sat.. so much for arranging for arranging and getting my hopes high for just my luck (and i still havent watch she's the man. i'll probably wait for the vcd). Thanks jiamin for your help to contact the gals and for helping me to organise.. someone tell me when's the best time to organise a movie for ppl from different schools, comprising from sec 2 to 4.. i'll prefer it before the september hols..

i wanted to say someting but i forgot. ohwells!

i cant sleep now. gosh all the caffeine from the ya kun coffee must be really strong and its working.. its 2 30 am now and everyone in the family is wide awake. goodness how are we gonna work and school tmr?

i'll rather not talk abt holiday hmk.. leave it to tmr yea? damn it alice in wonderland..

im getting REALLY REALLY FAT! diet diet diet here i come! =D

ok, i must really force myself to sleep now. if not i'll know for sure i'll be half dead for the whole of tmr. besides there's choir and i cant afford to be singing and sleeping at the same time.

just talked to sharon, and she said that shes giving tution for english, chinese and math..? english? chinese? yes laugh it off ppl.. and she's going to HK! to shop!!! damn that lucky girl.. *jealous eyes*

MGS Strikeback! Camp

2006-06-17T02:30:00.000+08:00

THIS POST IS LIKE SUPER LONG TIME AGO.. ITS WAS WRITTEN LIKE 2 WEEKS AGO BUT I WAS JUST LAZY TO POST IT.

im crazy over MIDNIGHT BATHS!!! gosh i just bathe for half hour and the time now is 2 30am. yes im really in LOVE with MIDNIGHT BATHS. midnight baths rox! totally love the sweet smelling body shop bath soap, the hot water spalshing down on my back and erm yea u get the point.. feeling so warm and fuzzy now.

ok im crazy. :/

im also like super uber high now cos of the teh tarik i drank just now at prate place. omg we were like total gluttons la. we (a family of 4) ate of totally of 5 plain pratas, 1 egg and onion prata, 4 plates of mee/beehoon/nasi goreng. drank 4 teh, and i can of coke light lemon.. and all these for dinner! and it was already 11 plus at that time.. gosh at this rate, we're all gonna become gluttons in no time! (which already in the process. im already like so fat). how interesting, a family of 4 gluttons.. what can i say? it runs in the genes.. haha. we better go work out or do some sth to lose weight soon..

MGS Strikeback Camp was super fun! Yes CANNON! (my group) Rox my socks mann! (the other group name were twigs, friction, ethanol etc. weird huh?) Its like MGS invited student leaders from other schools to interact with each other and had a conference to get to know how the student leaders system function.. The other schools that went were sji, asc(i), acs(br), plmgs, scgs. ri didnt turn up. It was a whole day thingy and my god, it was very very fun and i totally enjoyed myself. 5 of us, me, collin, adrian, martin and terence represented cat high.. it was funny though, collin told us to wear full sch uniform and the dress code was supposed to be casual as there were games. well done mann cat high.. we arrived looking at nerds but luckily we quickly changed out unto our casual clothes.. The school tour wasnt thaat good though.

1) We had some ice breakers. they were funny and ridiculous and were introduced to our group.
2) Then we had the ohsoboring presentation/conference.
3) Lunch followed and we discussed in our group for the preformance item and rehearsed for it. (btw, terence was in CANNON! too)
4) Played our hearts out during games.. a total of 4 games. first was dogdee water bombs. second was this sliding across this soappy canvas thingy. third was spider web and last was saving freeing rubber ducky by making it flow our of the pail and filling up the pail with water FROM OUR SHIRTS.. yea so we got all wet. ok actually all were water games except for spider web.. yea and although CANNON! didnt win any game but we had team work and fun! and they didnt even count scores and announce winner and all those stuff.. so yea..
5) Had to go wash up and clever me realised i was in trouble. see i was wearing my home tee with sch shorts and the clean clothes i had was sch shirt and board shorts?!? how on earth do these 2 pieces go? (actually i realised that before the games started, but it was too late to change).. yea so after comtemplating, i decided to wear the wet tee and change to my board shorts..
6) Yea then it was time for the performance item.. so we gathered in the auditorium and we started the 'concert'.. the other gropus were all funny and nice but i couldnt really enjoy as i was really nervous and my wet shirt was so damn irritating.. yea so CANNON! was one of the last groups and yea we acted out this skit where i had to act like a girl bitching around.. of cos i just unlease my bitching ans slutting skills and just shocked the whole audience.. haha so funny. the other group's preformance was funny and nice too! but i was SO cold in my wet shirt.. yea so thats abt it
7) Then we exchanged contacts and bade farwell.. *sob sob* haha

SHOP SHOP SHOP

2006-06-12T02:04:00.000+08:00

and finally! i went shopping! whoo... after 2 weeks of waiting patiently but excitedly. i made real good contact with the Great Singapore Sale. Yes, its really that great! and im so lucky to take time off my busy schedule.. phew.

Went to church this morning and i was chairing praise in chariskidz. Well we sang acapella and with ultimate morning voice. hmm. and we did father's day craft! it was tedious but nevertheless fun.. After church i went to cut my monostrous growth of forest on top of my head and i look so much neater now. went home to bathe and have lunch and went to town to shoppp!!

wow! the there was a jam on the roads due to the rain and we took an hour and half to reach orchard?!? like omg right? so then we went to taka, took our dinner at MOS and then went over to JL and robinson.. in the underground pass linking taka and wisma, i almost bought this LV bag and wallet.. but the stups thai acting afro woman charged me 10 bucks for the wallet when the 'stall' beside is selling at 5 bucks. Its just too bad that the first 'stall' didnt have the design that i liked.. and the bag costs 25 which wasnt worth cos i got it at 20 the last time round.. i was like looking at the wallets and when the woman said it was $1o, we were like "what?" and just threw the goods back at her and walked off. How outrageous!

In all, bought 2 tops. a tee and a shirt.. At least everyone in the family had something after this shopping spree..

After the whole tiring and enjoying spree, we stopped by at starbucks to enjoy a nice cup of aromatic coffee.. and i tried the banana mocha frapp light. it was not bad although i wanted the regular. had a lil of latte too. mmm yummy. totally imdulgence. and i totally basked in the ambience of this super glam cafe.. i was so tempted by the cakes and pastries and sweat treats like 'Divine blueberry cheesecake' omg argh..

We left starbucks at near midnight. So that ended up wondeful shopping spree. happily spent a whole day shopping. we should do it again next week huh? anyway going to city link with philip to do some WINDOW shopping.. (notice the word window. yes im broke).

Oh yea and that person i'd mentioned in my last entry going to sydney, macau and HK. wrong. i got my info wrong. He went to sydney, macau, CHINA and HK. and hes finally back. and that lucky person is none other than shaunikins.. 4 countries in a holidays? pls.

im dying to watch she's the man. someone pls save me from dying.

the caffine in the latte is working in me. i cant sleep and its already like 2 20 am in the morning? how am i gonna wake up tmr for another round of shopping?

boo.

A Chain of Random Events

2006-06-10T15:42:00.000+08:00

In a twinkle of the eye, its been 2 weeks of the enjoyable holidays.. How time really flies considering i only like 5% of my holiday hw. im like so dead.

My schduele had been packed to the brim and im like busy everyday. so far i only had 1 free day during the holidays and that was spent watching videos at home. Other than that, i'll have something on. how terribly busy can i get.. (i woke up late for my meeting today and totally forgot that today was flag day)

i guess its too late to post abt x-men as everyone has already watched it.. Well but a few words: Its cool! Dont you all agree? If you have not watch it, slap yourself now! i mean NOW NOW NOW!!! The actors and actresses are pretty hott! omg. (guess them yourself)

Just had the choir amazing race thingy yesterday.. I was being stationed at changi airport, the last station. My god, we spent almost a few hours trying to look for the perfect spot to host our games as we were told we were not allowed in the airport itself. So we went outside to the entrance and settled down there until the police came and we went into hiding. (we sound like criminals). So in the end we decided to have it in a secluded corner just beside the mrt station. where the groups werent able to find us as robin decided against the carpark.

The groups all arrived at around 2 and 3 plus. Most of them came up from the mrt station and went searching for us around around the whole airport. And finally they came back to our secluded area after abt half hous or so. haha. The obstacles were rather funny. A few physical stuff like jumping jacks and a NICE riddle to solve. The riddle was quite easy though. Then we had a few team building games and some dumb and funny forfeits which include: finding out the flight which leaves spore at 20:00(silkair), finding out the store in between bangawan solo and cocoa trees, taking and eating chilli from macs/bk, getting a toilet roll from the toilet etc.. haha wanted the choiries to run around the airport before letting them go..

In short, It was real fun!

Some people are just so lucky. They get to to sydney, macau and HK ALL in one holiday!?! can you believe it? 3 countries all in 1 month?? well for consolation, at least i get to stay in hot and humid but SAFE Singapore, well home truly is.. aww...

I've got so much work to complete. Both studies and council.. argh!

Anyway got a new phone.. The phone is new but the model isnt.. Is some samsung music phone. It was on a really great deal so dad convinced to to get it and to trade in my ancient 3120.. Yea so the phone cost $98 (with plan of cos) and end up, i only paid $38.. haha. cant believe that ancient 3120 still has a value of $60.. But this samsung phone had this black soft and sleek feeling that appealed to me.. Its a lil rubbery and gives it a classy feel.. ooohhh and ther size's really small and cute. Well 2 more years to this phone before i even think about getting a new one. but i really want the nokia l'armor collection phones..

went for ms chia's birthday bbq a week ago.. The trainee teachers were also there. we had fun no doubt omg. we chatted and caught up with each other and we played x-men in the dry canal (it was totally dry at that time).. But what was really fun was bbq-ing the food itself. we had so much fun that we end up sitr-frying the chicken wings. In this case, videos paint a thousand words. go have a look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQ2QIIODsnM laugh it out after that and dont ask which voice was mine (u wont see faces).. its pretty pretty obvious.. returned home smellin bdq-ed. haha.

ok this entry has been rather random.. God Bless everyone. :)

Sec 3 Adventure Camp

2006-05-30T00:36:00.000+08:00

I'm back from Sec 3 Adventure Camp! I survived and CONQUERED Taman Negara! yipeeee!

The 4 day 3 night camp was super fun.. From the exciting stuff like the rapid shooting., to the challenging 50 plus km cycling trip.. and to the all the scandalous lil stuff that occured during the camp. This trip has indeed opened me up to many once in a lifetime oppunities..

I felt that the camp was a lil too short as half of the time were spent on travelling (literally). such a waste of time.. It would be better if it extended one more day..

The most challenging activity would be the 54 km cycling (well 5o plus since no one in our grp completed due to the heavy downpour).. I actually enjoyed myself but was super duper tired.. Never in my life have i cycled for such a long distance and with so many huge upslopes (to our dismay) and downslopes (to our delight). Suffered a major cramp on the way and had to be taken to the rest point on the ambulance!?!? Unfortunately, many others already had cramps after the 1st/2nd rest point and had to be driven around for the rest of the journey.. How wasted. The weather was super hot blazing and many suffered serious sunburns and soon their skins turned lobster red. **But i didnt!!! Clever me dunked tons and tons of sunblock after every 15 mins** haha.. I was always on of the last few that reached the rest points.. But hey slow and steady wins the race..

The trekking up the nature park was okay except that it was 100 times steeper and difficult than bikit timah (ok, thats not even challenging but whatever).. So yea my legs were extremely tired after that.. We learnt abt some trees and their uses. But the view at the submit was worth the climbing (although i wont really say that the view was that magnificent)

The rapid shooting was exciting yet relaxing.. First we sat on this fast boat and got all wet as we splashed the water around (forgive me for my poor english). Then we went to the the bottom of a hidden waterfall and soaked ourselves in the water spring.. It felt jut like spa! Excpet that we were lying on rocks and it was natural. We were left to just played around and some played water fight while others simply soaked up in the ambience. The guides were friendly and nice..We also discovered coloured stones that was used buy the villages in the past as mascara.. How interesting huh..

We slept in tents beside the 'milk' river.. That village is like a dead town which all around are deserted broken down attap houses with maybe only a few still intact and in use.. Well thats pahang for you.. Undeveloped.. and everywhere is vegetation with a few attap house on the way and a small village.. The 'city' part of pahang is housed some shophouses, main roads and a few more 'higher class' attap houses.. yea. So i slept with daryl and philip and omg, both just kept squashing into me when we slept. Another grp joined us the 2nd night and the place became like super crowded and everyone was having social gatherings.. The place there also had this dung smelling stench everywhere.. so annoying.

The food was pretty good except that my grp kept going back to this 'floating' restaurant on the river that was near the campsite.. The family buisness kept a CAT there! Whats more it was pregnant! and it wasnt afraid of humans! omg! i was like avoiding the cat all the way and i dreaded meal times for those 2 days.. I even skipped a lunch cos of the freaking cat.. The cat was so frreaky looking and when it stares at you, those eyes.... eww.. u wouldnt understand my disgust unless u hate cats too.

We went threre by coach and the whole arduous journey took almost 10 hours. We left spore about 9 30 in the morn and reach there at 7 in the eveving, when the sun has set.. But of cos, the bus ride was super fun.. scandalising and stuff. Right philip? The ride back was by the night train.. We boarded the train on mon 2 30 am and reach spore in the noon.. Well the train was rather run down but yea other than that it was alright. It had a cafe but long queue of customers were lining up to fill their emtpy stomachs so i decided not to join them.. Woke up at 8 plus and time past incedibly fast.. Sth embarassing happened during the train ride.. I forgot to lock the toilet door and when the train jerked (it always does) and the door flunked open.. (the rest is up to u to guess).. It was also quite nosiy and the linakge between cabins were dangerous..

Shallnt coment much about the teachers.. Excpet that my 2 teachers, 1 male 1 female slept in the same tent with the whole row of bags placed in between them. hmm... Another teacher was just a good-for-nothing-but-trouble. ( i shall stop here and not go on abt that teacher). The rest of the teachers were pretty sporty and supportive. Saw a different side of the teachers..

Ok enough abt the camp.. The wonderful memories really touched my heart and i'll remember it forever. I'm so glad i went for this camp and truly enjoyed myelf and benefited from it.. u know whats werid? when we'll there, everyone wished that the camp would end quickly and we would be back home with our comfortable bed and everything.. But after i came back, deep down inside me i hoped i was still with my friends in taman negara, doing challengings activities and just simply having fun.. I guess that's the way it is..

Work hard during this hols and make use of the time u have.. esp if u havent done well in the past killer mid years (like me) and brushed up on your studies..

I failed 3 subjects this semester.. Physics and both math and amath.. Well achieved a class position of 4 and lvl position of 86.. This is due to the fact that i passed english by like 1 mark?!? Well yea once english is cleared, guaranteed top 20%.. so lucky me.. even though some ppl did better than me overall, but their position got lower than we cos of the english.. English always comes first.. I scored a no. of A2s and B4s and a lot of Cs.. I didnt get a A1 unfortunately.. My lit combined scored for term 1 and 2 was like 74?!?! 1 more mark to my A1!!! damn!!! Poor shaun, who got 74.9... Why didnt they round it off and spared so many others they agony..

well anyways Happy Holidays everyone! God Bless!

Mid Years & Personality Test

2006-05-16T01:15:00.000+08:00

The mid years are like long gone (im like so lagg).. so means now its a time of relaxation and going wild, and of cos depression after we receive our oh-so-"wondeful" results. im sure of that. LOL.

The papers were retarded i must say, all except for LIT! Well it was fun and interesting, and manageable. haha

Time for Individual rewiews..

English - "How can you call a passage 'comprehension' when its uncomprehendable" The compo part was rather okay..

Chinese - Papaer 1 (compo) was well, rather challenging. But paper 2 was more or less a breeze. The higher chinese students had vice versa. Nice planning, chinese department.

Math (E) - Paper 1 was a mad rush.. obviously not enough time as we didnt have a mock exam. JUst managed to jot down some crappy answers at the end.. Paper 2 was rather okay i guess. SHould've have choosen question 7 instead of 8. The transformation question was so much easier than plotting the stupid quadratic graph and finding all the points of intersection and the range of the inequalities(?!?). yea.

Math (A) - The paper was harder than i expected as it was like much harder than the practice paper. Well of cos it must be much harder right? What was i thinking? Didnt managed to finish both math paper. Ohhh how sad....

Physics - The paper was hahaha. I had serious mind block for the first 1/2 hour and so wasnt in the mood for physicks.. But then luckily, i got into the mood and started to tackle the questions with a fully alert mind. Well the paper genarally was rather esay, except for some guessing of answers and some careless mistakes here and there.

Chemistry - haiz. Just say that i would rather the chem department give us a shorter duration and more staright forwards and give away questions. Can you imagine sitting down there in agony of not knowing the anwsers and the time is sstill far from up?

Combined Humanities - Geog was so damn crappy. My mapwork is like so screwed. i didnt even know what they were trying to say. My structured was so common sensy, nothing came from the text book except the lil details here and there. i couldve spent my time studying on geog on something else instead. Perhaps Lit.. SS was fun and okay. i remembered all my facts and wrote alot. But my second essay was rather disorganised due to the lack of time..

Literature - Needless to say. I studied. It was fun and enjoyable. Rocks!

Checking scripts on wed to fri.. Wish me luck ppl..

"Have a good night sleep on tue night, as everyone's gonna get insomia on wed night.".. That about says it all for our english paper.

SO no study for the whole week. Just did a personality test on myself today as some institude (companies) came to our school to give the sec 3 to give us a personality test.. Theres a D.I.S.C. Im a 'S' and a bit of 'I' and a tiny weeny bit of 'C'. 'S' being super nice and sensitive to others. Doesnt like to offend ppl. Sympathetic. Prefer a small close group of frens.. However, resistance to change and may hold a grudge. So dont offend me.. 'I' being incluencing and inspiring.. Loves alot and are people orentated.. They are a joy and joke to everyone.. However, there may be lil attention span and no work done, just talking and talking. talks too much.. 'C' being a perfectionist, calculative and too meticulous and very factual.. Usually depressive and unexpressive.. I cant believe im a lil bit of 'C'.. 'D' being dominant and demanding.. (eww of cos im not that at all). Having a 'D' in the mixture of his personalityis usually beneficial to student leaders.. I wonder wheres my 'D'?

It was definitaly enlightening guessing and knowing others personalities and of cos, your own. It sure makes you know yourself better and be better frens to to others.. Theres normally a blend of personalitities. There's natural blend and constrasting blend. Naturally being like 'I' and 'S'.. Constrasting being like 'D and 'S'.. yea. In very rare cases, anyone is a pure personality.. There are some in my class though.. Im like what? mix of 3?

Anyway All the Best for everyone's result.. tatas

A busy week

2006-04-23T13:15:00.000+08:00

It has certainly been a busy week..

Hie Thee, Worthy Cousins

English Literature sure rox! I'm sure those that takes lit will agree with me.. It's just so fun, the lesson, macbeth, tina, being able to do 'higher english' with my friends, and everything else. Its the most enjoyable lesson i have esp this week where we watch the macbeth movie (not its not the play).. Yea so dont have the misconception that lit is boring and is difficult to comprehend. It is actually, an appreciation of an art. It's an Touch of Class..

The Macbeth test was done(ded) on monday. Well its was rather easy as like everyone had already anticipated the question with tina's splendid and wonderful obvious hints. well yea and its 25 marks for one essay question, so id its screwed up, its really screwed up.. Tina was like so doing her own stuff during the test.. i had my notes and book infront of me and i could just happily coughrefercoughtocoughthecoughbookcough without her noticing.. How ditz right?? Then when i wanted somemore paper, i raised my hand for 5 min and still she didnt respond, so i got out of my seat loudly and went to her. And a smile appeared on her face and told me to self-service.. I ended up writing 4 sides, and full of my illegible scribbles. ha. Well this is the literature i take and the teacher i have. So funny(dont get me started) and leniant.

Student Leasers' Investiture tmr! Well all the hardwork and stress would finally pay off. Thanks to those who put in extra extra hardwork for this investiture! Hope everything goes smoothly and it'll be a sucess! :)

Mid Years approaching.. starting with english this fri. Work Hard ppl and God Bless! May everyone strive for their desired results and take care!

Omg! My Hott Espresso!

New Skin!

2006-04-15T22:59:00.000+08:00

Finally! No more scarily eery kelly clarkson starring-at-you face.. I've changed my skin!!! Doesnt this new skin look adorable and like so nice??? Actually i wanted something about 'Inulgence' but since there's none, i'll settle for 'Fairy Tales'.. All thanks for philip who literally did everything for me. Thanks a million!

Just came back from my granddad's birthday dinner.. Went to crystal jade at suntec. Well the food there was not very fantastic but it was ok overall..

I'm gonna have to wake up like super early tmr (around 4 plus) for qing ming.. Its always been my family just tagging along with the rest of my extended family although i'm a Christian.. So have to miss chariskidz and seeing those super duper cute adorable hyper children..

Anyway Congrats to vjc choir who won the Top Prize in the Italy Competition.

I'm like super high now with caramel frapp from at starbucks..

The mid years are coming in less thank 2 weeks.. Guess what? I dont even feel the pre exam stress yet.. I'm like so screwed up big time!

And when is the results of the finalists for chma ever gonna be announced.. Oh this making me so nervous to have to wait for it..

Tatas!

CHMA Auditions

2006-04-07T21:47:00.000+08:00

Omg! It was the annual CHMA auditions again! And well lets just say that i've tried my best but could've been better prepared. And i'm stuck with this voice of mine. urghh! its not than i dont like it.. but well u know.. It's even higher than i was in sec 1.. yea.

Yea so everything went well. Everything was totally nice and grovvy (except the first 2 notes where i was obviously flat) and then came the last part! The most horrendous part of all! The super high change of key! Well i shouldnt have revealed my flaws by singing that part which i didnt really rehearsed.. So i went a little out of tune (dunno if flat or sharp or whatever) at the final high part. Guess i didnt have enough support at that time to belt out that damn note. Whatever but what's done is done.. I hope that didnt affect my chance of entering the finals..

I should have just stop singing after the 2nd chorus where i actually planned to. Concidentally, i saw wang juinn picking up the mike, abt to say "thank you" and stop me. But then bick yan and edwin didnt respond, so he didnt say anything and allowed me to continue. I wanted to stop at that time la! But i as thinking might as well just completed the song and take a risk to show off my high notes.. Guess it turned out pretty bad with my superduper dry throat.. Even shaun could hear it from the audience. (It was really dry. My mouth was sticking instead of being wet with saliva and my lips stuck to my front teeth when i pronounce the words.) Maybe i was nervous.

I'm quite weird u know. As i grow older, i feel stage fright playing a increasing large role when i peforming on stage. In sec 1, during chma auditions, i wasnt even feeling anything form of nervousness and moreover, i was singing acapella and luckily, i found the correct pitch. If not 'Colours of the Wind' would not have been a sucess.. ok sec 2, i was a lil' more afraid and 'Love Me' wasnt a sucess. Now i was like super nervous and was trembling over all over before my turn came. I could literally hear the heartbeats knocking widly upon my ribs. Even in choir, i'll feel scared to even perform on stage. What's happening to me? Dont ppl outgrow stagefrights? maybe i'm ingrowing it.. haha!

Anyway my introduction of myself was hilarious and entertaining.. I said all this, "Hi" (In a super high pitch). "Yea, its me again" (By this time everyone was laughing at me.. u know for what la). "I'm Andrew Tan from class 3-5 and singing Anyone of Us by Gareth Gates" Then i said "Pls pardon me cos i'm feeling very nervous".. Everyone was laughing at my intro but then it rather interesting to actually break free of the monotonous intro of name, class and title of song. Well i ended of with, "Jugdes, sorry for the last part cos i wasnt eally prepared" i shouldnt have said that!! Maybe only edwin heard the out-of-tune-ness and i dont think bick yan and wang juinn could differenciate since it wasnt that bad and they weren't very music ppl either.. But when i said that, they must have knew something was wrong. Shucks!

Another funny thing was that bick yan gave me this shocked face throughout my entire performance (probably cos of my voice and how i sang the song). It was so funny and everytime i was feeling nervous and needed to smile to the audience, i just needed to look at her and a smile would naturally appear. I was actually laughing at the sillliness of her face. This time, i didnt really focus much on the stage present as i was concentrating real hard to make every note as perfect as i can.. A few things to learn from.. The other contestants were more or less ok.. There was some funny incidents that happened when i singing.. Although i didnt hear it myself but well... yea (shaun, darly and wenbin u guys should know. Pls dont go spreading it around)

Well, i wanna thank you all for coming down to support me. It was really great having you guys as audiences. Namely: shaun, darly, wenbin, lennart, and many more. And not forgetting the teachers: Mr Tan Jit Huih and Sis Valerie (haha).. yea and is it true that i have a fan club? i dont think so right.

The results will most probably be released next wed during assembly in front of the whole school.. If i enter the finals, i'll be elated! If i dont, well.. too bad! try harder.. I seriously dont feel any pressure or stress of getting into the finals cos i've learnt to take things in a strike. But my goal for singing is still to be able to win this competition and excell to greater heights.. Like Sinapore Idol and Campus Superstar (totally love zhi yang's voice and really admire him). So All the Best for me. May God Bless Me.

The mid years are like arriving at an alarming rate.. In 3 weeks. Must ask lisa to calculate the velocity (says in her deep and slank tone) of the arrival of exam.. Its like in 3 weeks, the sec 3s are gonna sit for the English paper. A real exam in 2 1/2 years.. The irony is that i dont even feel any tinge of pre exam stress yet and this is starting to frighten me. I just live from day to day in school... Homework, class tests, homework, class tests.. This is forever the boring cycle and i just tackle whatever comes in my way.. Sometimes i even choose the avoid it and settle for mediocal results at the last min.. Well, i should better start getting those poor brain cells of mine to start working..

So long! Work hard ppl! God Bless! Singing Rox!

*I desperately need a new skin for this blog. The huge kelly clarkson is kinda hideous after some time with her staring back at you. Who wanna volunteer pls tag! Maybe we'll start work after the mid years yea? Thanks in advance.

Again

2006-02-24T21:17:00.000+08:00

Surprise surprise??!!Oh my!!!!!!!!!!!!! It has been like donkey years since i last blogged.. like what? last year? i've have been so super busy lately.. but i shall blog a really short and sweet entry to satisfy my faithful blog readers.. (thanks for still tagging though). I actually typed a whole entry a few weeks ago, but couldnt find the time to finish it..

So... the Common Test is OVER!!! everyone jump for joy! yipee! like i can even stop for a breather.. there's still like so many tests here and there and on top of that, huge piles of rotting homework, sickening projects, and exco-ness in council to seriously ponder upon.. Where do i find some much time to complete much stuff on top of my daily chores..? Besides, everyone's rather depressed lately or pms-y coz of their bad results (including me, i'm not kidding). Ya so its like u've gotta get everything in order with this mood of depression, leading to fatigue-ness.. I just wanna leave this world of hectic-ness and stress behind and enjoy the simple tranquility of life.. Pity it can only remain as a wishful thinking of mine part (at least for the near furture)

I'm seriously not a math and science person.. (failed both a and e math and hardly scraped through chem and phy). But on a brighter note, i rock at HUMANITIES! did pretty well for both lit, elect geog and ss.. so its like i'm gonna get distinction for humans, and like failed for math or sth. So extreme. Its like in in heaven and in hell.. Really hope to pull up the awful "fail" grade staring at me with tuition i'm starting tmr.. maybe will get phy tuition too.. But its like i've not been having tuition since p5, really dunno if i'm able to take it with all that stress..

I've been resorting to caffine to make me hyper and myself again.. Its so so unreal. Its not me! I can still feel that tiredness, sadness, tension etc underneath this caffine keeping me !alive!, and when it wears off (which it usually does before sch ends), i'll be desperately wishing that i could just go home to my nice comfy bed and to just destress myself.. How pathetic could that be?

Changing of teacher is rather saddening too! esp Mr Edwin Heng and Mrs Chung Lee Siang.. They've been rather inspiring and exciting teachers to begin with. It's really a waste that they have to go.. Really hope that Mdm Endang and Mr Quay would be able to stir us out and eqipped us with everything for the next few terms.

I've been so scandalous lately too! But i still have my voice! ha!

Sincerely hope everything would change for the better.. I know it would as there's always an advantage to every situation.. Be optimistic! And of course, to always give yourself encourgaes and little indulgence (that's how i use to replenish my eternally liveliness and cheerfulness and the naturally me!) to commend yourself for whatever effort to to cheer you on.. Constantly help others in whatever ways you can, and What Goes Around Comes Around. Trust me, i've experienced all these to survived till today..

I seriously need a new skin for this almost dead blog (notice i use the word 'almost').. who wanna help me? all are welcome..

God Bless u all! hopefully i'll be able to complete my projects and outstanding (for many weeks) homework this weekend, rest and energise myself again.. And also, just be me!

Tuituion tmr.. Busy day tmr (with council, remedial, tuition and hardcore housework).. What a 'nice' saturday i have.. haha.

I'm thinking of someone now.. guess who is it? Of coz u cant.. (oh my philip)

2005-12-30T21:18:00.000+08:00

Everyone else is out enjoying their sumptuous dinner, while i'm stuck here at home with some kind of weird fever-ish feeling. Makes you feel all cold and sickly all over.. so might as well take this chance to blog..

Got this mixed feelings of excitedness and nervousness of going back to school in a few days time, to be exact 4. Well excited maybe because i'm feeling a teeny weeny bit of boredom staying at home and staring at the tv everyday.. But nervous because maybe i havent even come close to complete half of the holiday homework (who cares right?, convince me) and maybe because i gotta due with a whole lot of council work in a first week of school due to sec 1 orientation.. Ready or not, the days are drawing nearer.. whatever.

Books or bought (except lit and geog due to out-of-stock-ness) hmmm.. probably buying shoes tmr comsidering my present have been shredded into pieces. well maybe there's just some tears here and there. but whatever.

i'm been tagged by daryl about this stupid chain-game thingy that has been passing around in blogs and well i'm one of the unlucky one.. so here's goes: "Rules of the game. Post 5 weird things or random facts about yourself. Then at the end of the list, 5 names that you are in line to do this. Dont forget to leave a comment, "You've been tagged" in the blogs to read yours. "

Well this are just common facts about me. So totally not weird.. :
1) I absolutely love singing (my voice actually), well pop songs mostly maybe..
2) I simply adore singing (my voice actually), well some classical, choir and country genres.. Not too much of them though, for i'll get really bored.
3) I'm infactuated with singing (my voice actually). Singing is my life and i simply cant do without.. haha
4) ok enough about voice and singing already! I spent my free time bedsides eating, pigging out and watching tv, SHOPPING! helps me to destress sometimes (not all the time though) Crowded shopping centres and the wrong mood gives me bad headache..
5) Lastly, im plain lazy. boo!
6) Could i have make it 6? yes i can! i love all my frens and everyone!

ok, so there u go.. bet everyone who knows me already know all these stuff about myself. and i hope whoever next i sabo will take some time off to reflect upon himself/herself and to find their trueself blah blah blah... I'll think of some 5 (maybe 6 also) names to sabo and post it up some other time.

i'm feeling so fat-ish. Have been wanting to find exercise and to replan my diet well sometimes either the weather isnt in favour of me exercising or i just cant get myself out of the sofa to do anything. See told ya i'm just plain lazy.

Have a blessed new year everyone! God Bless! ;)

gotta find some stuff to eat now.. I'm super duper hungry (bet i could eat ya) haha!

Its been a week ++ since i'm back from Aust.. So since i promised that i'll blog, i'll blog!

Aust is quite a really nice place for a holiday.. But one thing which i didnt like that was the shops throughout closess at 5 pm. Can u imagine?!? Its like christmas time and in spore orchard is buzzing with life even well into the midnight.. Yup but then the ppl there sure knows how to relax with the beaches and the night recreation (althought there isnt much)..

Bought quite few stuff back.. Not alot but at least i didnt buy junk and did not regret spending my aussie dollars on those stuff. In all, i bought 3 shirts, 1 pair of billabong boradshorts, 1 pair of billabong slippers, 1 quiksilver visor, and lots of other small stuff for presents. Spent about 200 aussie on those..

We spent about 2 days in Gold Coast, talking walks by the nice and cool beaches, shopping and buying groceries, and going to Dreamworld.. Then we started our journey downwards south towards sydney.. We stoped at this small town called Taree for the night and then we continued on to Blue Mountains.. The weather is like fantabulous, even though its summer, the weather is pretty chilly and cooling. A sweater would be suitable for that place. Went to see the 3 Sisters and even managed to touch one of the them.. Pretty cool huh? And the next day, we started off towards sydney..

The 2+ days we had in sydney was quite enjoyeable.. The weather there is much more pleasurable than that in Gold Coast.. Went to see the Sydney bridge and the Opera House (finally!) and then we took a ferry at Darling Harbour over to this island called Manly where is filled with all kinds of shops and ppl going to the beach.. Well we werent really prepared for it so we were quite oddly dressed to be there.. The ferry ride is so enjoying and its really cold when u ride it in the night and the night wind just blows straight into your face and u can feel the chill seeping into your skin! u cant definitely feel that in spore..

We also went to the some market where we bought alot of cheap stuff that sells them alot more expensive at shops.. Bought most of our presents there. Then came the fish market.. The seafood there is super fresh and huge compared to the scrawny lil' ones in sopre.. haha. But the smell there really turns me off. But the giant calamari and king prawns gave me the sastifaction..

After sydney, we drove back up to Gold Coast as we had to return to spore from there. But we stoped at Port Stephens this time.. and this is really a wonderful place. It has lots of beaches and wonderful clear water.. They have this place called Sand Dunes where all you have is beautiful seand all over, almost like the Sahara desert.. haha. So we took this jeep up to one of the steep sand slopes and we sand boarded downhill.. omg! it was super fun and exciting the first few rounds.. But imgaine having to climb up to the peak all over again on sand.. So after about 5 or 6 rounds, everyone was exhausted.. (e.g. 20 secs to sand board down, 5+ min to climb up). yea..

The next day (our last day), we reached our final and first destination, Gold Coast, and we spent the night there.. As it was already 6 plus by the time we arrived, the shops were mostly closed so all we could do was to relax in the motel and get ready for dinner. Then we took our last satisfying dinner, Aussie's Fish and Chips!! and we went for the last round of grocery shopping..

Then it was back to spore.. Arrived here at about 9 plus in the night.. Enjoyed myself very much.. The milkshakes there were nice!! =)

A stressful week of school and church choir..

Have a BLESSED CHRISTMAS everyone.. God Bless! Enjoy your presents too!

first day in aussie..

2005-12-04T23:02:00.000+08:00

So i'm like in Aussie now!!! whoo!!!

The weather here is quite hot.. (Its summer) but the heat isnt that sorching and it doesnt 'bite' into your skin like the way the singapore's sun do.. The night is quite cooling though, but not as cooling as i expected..

The plane ride was ok. But i didnt really catch much sleep. Watch 'Skeleton Key' and 'Sky High' and managed to a short nap.. Played a few online games though.. Love the food also (from SIA).. haha.

So i was rather sleepy the whole day and surprisingly, i didnt feel the excietment as i felt it the way i go for a holiday.. haha maybe i'm just warming up, or maybe i felt excited too fast, a few days before the trip.. Hopefully i'll realise that i'm in Aussie soon!!!

The angmohs here esp. the teenagers are like super crazy.. i went to take a look at their night life and they are like all so liberal and open. The gals all dressing like its really a scorching summer and the guys are like so vulgar and rude.. Well bascially all of them are just very loud, so unlike singapore.. (Imagine seeing this in singapore) But they are only like found in some parts of Surfers' Paradise (Gold Coast). The pubs, nightclubs, cafes, and shopping centres.. Just another bend round the conner and its all quiet and like a dead town, where all the housing estates are (where i'm staying)..

So we today we just went shopping in surfing stufff.. bought sth for philip and daryl already (wont say what are they).. and bought myself a nice pair of billabong slippers since my present one is falling apart..

Going to Aust..

2005-12-03T23:23:00.000+08:00

ok so i'm like super excited now!!!

Coz i'm going to Australia/Aust/Aussie/Aussie Land.. haha ya. and i'm like at the airport now, using the free computer and internet services.. What a good changi airport we have (that's why we won the best airport in the world)..

So i may be able to go online there coz i brought my tablet. Wonder what is the weather like.. hmm hot?cold? but its like summer now. Hope its a cold and windy summer and i'm prepared for it.. brought my jacket and sweaters.

I dont really feel anything right now, a lil' bit excited though. Flight is at 12 midnight. SO its like a few min from that time. Went to coffee bean just now to have a quick drink..

Guess i must be going soon, since this computer has a limit to every user and its like 8 min left now..

The best part is that Renzie is going with us, and his family is coming the next day. I'm so positive that this is going to be a super fantabulous trip!

Alright so tatas ppl! If you want any presents, too late! shld have told me earlier. haha.. will buy sth for philip and daryl though.. hope i can find something nice..

wonder if zkai and gwei is enjoy their holiday in japan and canada respectively.. hope their enjoying their winter and that gwei remembered to get my Billy Gilman's cd!!!...

Must go now!! God Bless me!

Grad Nite

2005-11-30T00:30:00.000+08:00

I spent a whole hour today typing out an entry today and when i tried publishing it, everything went blank and it was gone! so here i am blogging again.. haiz. But hey, blogging is always fun.

Grad Nite was so super fun! well it wasnt mine but the sec 4s.. we arrived at 6 plus and changed into our shirts and we were supposed to like check against everyone (the classes that we were attached to) who came and give them their door gifts. At first it was pretty smooth and slow pace but as it got later, huge packs of sec 4s in all kinds of outrageous (i mean real outregeous) dressings, hairstyles etc.. came and tried to register.. The registration table was like havoc at that time and everyone was like rushing here and there. But soon when everyone was seated, the Oriental Hotel lobby became quiet again..

Then came the Mr. Sophistication.. We were liek supposed to vote from our attched classes who's the few most good looking when the come and register. Well obviously everyone was in such a chaotic state that we almost didnt have time to give the door gifts, much less spot the good lookings.. ok so i voted a few of my frens and also renzie, who wasnt in my class. Later on, 10 of them were selected and they were welcomed on stage to say sth.. Well of coz things were hilarious and cheering was booming. Then in slowly during the nite, the numbers were narowed down to 5, then 3, then finally Mr. Sophistication... and he is RENZIE!!! totally oh my la.. but actually expected him to win since he was one of the best in the top 3.. He was made to dance for the final round and based on his account, he kind of embarrased himself as he continued dancing when the other 2 had stop.. Well, but i guess what's a little embarrasement? He won sound systems from Creative.. and partly its becos of me.. haha! ;)

During the night, there was lucky draws and magic shows and of coz, eating! But the student leaders (myself) didnt get to eat and all we had was to watch them eat the sumptuous food while we munched on peanuts.. poor things right? But we didnt have to pay $65.. There was also a lot of photo taking.. i think philip and i were the only crazy sec 2s who ran around trying to find friends for phtots and we took a whole damn lot of it. But my phone was like so crazy and all the phtots i took were super blurry and unclear, should have took a digital cam along. So i took pictures woth teachers also (only the glam looking ones) and of which one i didnt know at all.. I juts went up to her and said "Can i take a picture with u cos u look so glam today?" and she readily agreed. so funny lol. Well but luckily my fren knows her, so can ask her to send him the picture then he can send me.. Then, my parents and sis came to fetch philip and i as it was raining.. What a night i had! phew..

Well enough abt grad nite, recently i realise that Billy Gilman rocks! You may not heard of him or even know him.. I first heard of him when he sang a duet with Charlotte Church, "Dream a dream" and decided to explore more abt this unknown but promising singer.. And i found out and was immensed in his songs in a couple of hours. And this happened only last fri.. haha. He is a child prodigy like Charlotte and when he was abt 12 yrs old, he released a debut album, "Ove Voice".. Well his voice is like so nice, good, pure, marvelous, pure, angelic, fantastic etc.. (unlike operatic Charlotte) He has many other albums like "Classic Christmas" where all his christmas carols rocks! He sang other duets with Charlotte like "Sleigh Ride" ..

He's now 17 and in 2002, he had to take a 2 yr break due to vocal change(u shld know what is that) and he's back in May 2005. Guess i was a little late to only discover his new album, "Everything and More" only lats fri.. ok, so he definitely sound much more matured (almost like 2 different ppl) but then his voice is still as good, as promising. Although i still prefer his child voice well.. but there u have Billy Gilman! However i dont rememeber seeing his cd anywhere in the music stores of s'pore and gwei also dont remember seeing any.. So we decided to search for his cd when abroad and to buy it back home if found.. hmmm. but maybe daryl's cousin has sth.. dunno la. Anyway on sat night, gwei and i did a super crazy thing. We sent Billy a fan mail interview email thingy.. so fun la. Didnt so this kind of stuff before, not even for britney. Well, my mp3 is also filled with his songs now, noth old and new. You can check out his website if you want, www.billygilman.com ..

Serene is already on her way to aussie land.. gwei is flying off to Canada tmr morning, zkai is gg to Japan in a few days time.. And its like my turn to aussie land on sat nite.. Cant help but to feel the excitment builing up.. havent even started packing leh.. So aussie land, prepare for my grand arrival on sunday morning! oh my =)

I'm feeling fat again! Time to lose some weight before i go to asut. I'll try, but i doubt i succeed.

I may be getting an iPod 10 Gb, 6th generation for this christmas. No gurantee though..

Tatas! off to my lala land after a tiring but enjoying day. Take care folks.

2005-11-29T13:15:00.000+08:00

2005-11-17T17:58:00.000+08:00

I just love my voice! My voice is what i gives me life. Everyday when i wake up, i'll make sure it's in a good condition. My voice is the most important part of me! ;D

3 good weeks of the holidays have been eaten into. And all i've done is just watch tv, go for camps, SING, sleeping and watching movies!.. Its not that i dont like it, but u'll get bored after quite some time, and mind you, 3 weeks is a long time to get bored of these.. Why must there be choir practices almost every week?? Why cant we just have 2 weeks of intensive and a few more practices before our 22nd dec performance?? It bothers me that in a few days time, choir practice again.. I love singing but not just certain practices.. Oh whatever.

Choir camp was in 2nd week. SL camp was in 3rd week. I was a cook in choir camp and a facilitator in SL camp. The earlier rox. The latter sux. Wont go into details..

If i'm not wrong, there'll are a few holiday assignments for us.. Some chinese reading stuff and a whole list of math. As you expected, both are left untouched and i probably wont touch them any sooner. I probably try to complete math before early dec (where i fly off to aust) and maybe not even read any chinese, considering that knowing everything in those stuff makes up 20% of our sec 3 CA1 chinese.. Think its just a lie that teachers came up to ensure that we do our hmk. They contort the same lies every end of year. Anyway, we shall see..

Went to watch 'Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire' today with philip, cedric, tze heng and deddy. Due to some circumstances, philip and i had to seat at the back while the rest seat somewhere in the middle. Seating at the back is still considerably ok, except that the screen dosent appear too big. Its for the experience anyway. Well, so the show itself wasnt that good actually. It lacked the omph! that i was looking forward to. Some of the interesting parts were not even shown due to time constraint. Esp when the 'World Cup' wasnt even shown and i felt the start was too hurried into. The 'Triwizard Tornument' was shown to quite a great excitement though. There were some changes from the book also.. I could say that i've enjoyed myself, though the last 1/2 h i terribly wanted to rush to the toilet. But i stayed on. haha.. THe show is 2 1/2 h mind you.. =)

To all the sec 4s that i know and to all my sec 4 friends.. Hang on! Your paper either ends tmr or next tue.. Just Do Your Best for the last few papers and then afterward you can go wild!! I hope you all have done well for the past few papers.. If you have, good for you! If you blunded in some, its ok!! What matters most is that you have tried your best!! and will continue to stive!! I'll be praying for every single one of you.. God Bless and take care! (esp for your health, dont fall sick)

My favourite songs currrently are Ashlee's "Boyfriend" and Britney's "Mona Lissa" One has a strong and upbeat while the other has a expressive and slu*ish tune. haha.

My sis just came back.. Have to go found out how she fared in her F&N paper and dunno what paper.

I'm off. Tatas!!

Goodbye 2-6

2005-10-31T13:52:00.000+08:00

The last entry about my every so interesting day was all crappy. It was just me babbling all my nonsense away, so if you wanna know what comes after the 'to be continued' , just drop me a msg or ask me.. But i doubt i can even remember what was coming after that line. I only remebered that ms S. treated the whole group of us to swensons after Open House and all of us had a great time, esp me (where i was the center of attraction). I had typed in that phrase due to my many naggiacious calling of mum for dinner..

I got back all my results in the 2nd last and last week of school and my overall results and my report book on fri.. I guess i did ok, compared to the majority of the class. Mostly Bs and about 2 As for overall. I think i can ask for no more, I did my best and this is my best. :) Of course i expected myself to score higher but that's why room for improvement comes in.. I've got to work hard again next year. I think u guys know my class and level position so i shall not post it here due to sensitivity issues. If others wanna know, just ask. I dont bite..

In a twinkle of the eye, it has been a good and faithful year. And so another (or 2) i spent it with my classmates. It suddenly dawned to me on the last week of school that that was the last opppunity i had to be with my present classmates, and to think i absented myself from class for 2 days.. I think i'm really gonna miss the days i spent with this whole lot of different and crazy ppl.. Gone were the days when i felt annoyed because i couldnt concentrate in class due to the various direction of noises and distraction. But also gone were the days when the whole class were enjoying the silliness and craziness of one another. Well, i guess all good and bad things must end and this is just part and parcel of life. Whatever it is, thanks for all the memories and for being my classmates, everyone had certainly created a difference in my life. Whether be it small or big.. I think i'll just have to look at the class photos when i really miss 2-6. All the best for next year. No matter what class you're in, say 'hi' when u see me! ;)

This holiday is quite packed. Choir practices at least once a week. The worst thing is that everyone on my schdeule is scattered and so this means that i cant work. This means no extra spending power in Australia.. haiz. So it's council and sing sing sing this holiday.

Its shaun's birthday tmr.. Happy 14th Birthday Shaun in advance.. Wonder what i'll be getting for him. hmmm..

Tatas! Happy Holiday everyone!

Back to maple to indulge myself..

2005-10-15T21:27:00.000+08:00

Everyone was sitting quietly, waiting for the bus to arrive to take us to Siglap CC for our choir practices. Keith ran over to me and shoved his hp into my sight. In it, i saw my marks for math common test.. Ok so i got a 23/35. I expected more, at least a 25.. Considering that i thought the paper was quite easy. Maybe i was careless and i hope that i'll be able to see my paper soon (which havent been seen by me due to certain uncalled for circumstances) and hopefully i'll be able to argue for a lil' more marks.. But i passed still, not too good though..

Only got back math so far, the teachers have been rather slacky in marking our papers and also these have been a super duper hectic week. I hope i'll get back my other papers next week. So enough for marks and papers..

This past week can be called the most hectic, busy and tiring week of my life. Starting from mon, i stayed back in school till 7 plus to prepare some bookmarks for the school Open House today.. It was a rather stressful day with mr toh chasing hot at my heels. Luckily my frens were there to help me with the IT stuff..

Wed i stayed back till 8 plus to do up the feedback board which was supposed to be placed at the school entrance today. It wasnt at all done up on wed due to the choir prac which took up my whole afternoon.. But still the few of us stayed back and later, in order to reward us, ms S gave us a dinner treat. Only philip and i went as the others already had dinner waiting for them at home.. After dinner, i took a lift from ms S's cab as it was rather late and i still had to study for a home econs test the next day. I fell asleep when i was studying though and did quite badly for the test.

The whole of thu was dedicated to our school's 70th anniversary performance at Neptune.. Our guest of honour was the Prime Minister of Singapore. I wouldnt say what kind of events were held there, you should know. The place was so nice when we first entered but the back stage looked like a haunted mansion. It has rundown and had lots of winding paths. Anyone could tell that the place existed since the 60's.. Our performance was terrible due to the utter disrespect the crowd when the choir were singing. In between songs, loud chatter were being heard and clanking of porcelain plates were transmitted to our eyes. We could hardly hear ourselevs singing. This got partly got to do with the lack of warm ups as the last one that we did was 3h ago and the late nights that i spent trying to prepare for the Open House.. After the performance, the few ppl clapping enthuly were none other than our principal but the Prime Minister were seen going around talking with others. This wasnt a very good sign.. Everyone was demoralised and neither our conductor nor teacher commented on this afterward.. The band was maybe to our certain extent, a lil' better than us this time round.. We left straight after and i reached home at about 11 plus. I bathed, had dinner and gave in to my fatigueness..

Fri was the worst yet challenging day of all. I was extremely tired due to the previous night and i was half dead. I yawned more than 20 times in the morning when helping choir set up the booth f0r Open House. I couldnt sing anything and my voice was going off. Obviously, the tea that i drank in the morning didnt work.. I was emotionally tired and stress and the slightest nudge from my fren could make me jump like i was having a nightmare, it was scary.. I had to juggle choir anf council at the same time, it was a terrible experience.. we had to do some dumb class cleaning of our classroom and everything became a disater.. Next the feedback board that was almost done the, became destryed due to the carelessness in pasting of one of my fellow councillors.. Everything had to be redone. So 3 of us went to Popular in J8 and we didnt get enough creepe paper needed. We had no choice but to take a bus to the next nearest Popular, Thomson Plaza, to get creepe paper. We ate our lunch there too and i felt better. Maybe coz of the food.

The second part was quite ok, everything started to fall in place and we had to the feedback board recovered. At arounf 6 plus, we started doing givlets and our target was 500, but we only managed to acheive 100 plus. I bacame the 'Sotchtape Man' and my main job for the givlets was to cut the sotch tape into small pieces for the rest to wrap up the items into the wrappping paper. I got this job as i sucked at wrapping and took a long time before i finally wrapped one. Ms S said that we should do what we do best and thus i rocked at cutting sotch tape. It was competitive as i had to compete with about 10 ppl who used paper like that were breathing in air, and i only have 2 hands.. Many stupid and silly things happen which brightens up the sunken and tried mood. Like hearing rao speaking english to ms S in that dumb accent, scraming and running along the dark corridor next to the kitchen, climbing out of the school gate to buy materials for our givlets at 9 plus, screaming mariah when coming back to school, feeling the cool breeze of the night blowing across my skin, cracking lame jokes that made ms S laugh and everyone else laugh, hearing her funny insults and etc etc.. Overall i enjoyed myself very much that night and i had to climb the school wall (help given) in order to get out of the school..

The big day arrived after much efforts and screw ups.. The day started off by choir. We were supposed to perform at Open House.. I cpuldnt really sing in the early morning but after the warm ups, i felt better.. Then we were told to gather in music room to wait for out performance turn. That turn never came as we went for lunch and came back and waited somemore. Later mr leong told us that we were dismissed. Maybe it was due to the lack of ppl coming to visit our school.. Everyone was pissed as precious time were just lost, like that..

I went to report to council after that as i had duty as a tour guide. Firstly i went to report to this tablet programme where we were supossed to show the parents how to use the tablet pc and to try our best to promote them.. Due to the sparcity of ppl, i left after 15 min. Ok so the turn out was a flop and the whole school was almost empty.. (to be continued)...

2005-10-11T10:21:00.000+08:00

Hello ppl, its time for my regular dose of blogging. ok maybe it aint regular.. but who cares?

ok so i'm feeling high right now.. just came back from pe. Sitting right in front of the math teacher now. whatever.

Will update soon on the recent common test (my feelings + my grades i ever hope to be distinction.) Been really busy on council staff these few days as Open House is just on sat.. So have been staying back till like 6 to 7 plus everyday. man i'm shacked. So its like whatever i do in school revovles around council, at least until my marked tests comes back.

Another addiction is maple. haha i guess everyone in class is almost addicted to that addicting game. Omg is like super fun la.. haha. Assasin level 15 now, but i'm working my way up now.. Only one character, dont one to start too many, if not cannot handle. Luckily for good frens who helped and guided me along the way. Thanks ppl. Guess now i'm 'old' enough to 'support' myself. Better go train and earn more money and gain levels quickly.. All my frens are waiting for me to quests. Anyone want to party me?

All right, will blog again soon.. probably later or tmr..

I'm off. tatas!

Did i forgot to mention again, I LOVE MY EVER SO LOVELY VOICE!!!

Some idot beside me is listening to some stupid rock metal music now, guess you know who *points to timothy*. boo.

addition

2005-09-24T14:48:00.000+08:00

This is some addition to yesterday (latest) entry. As i was in a hurry and didnt get to type the full desire of what i really wanted to share..

Congrats to Britney and Kevin! for bringing their 1st newly-born baby boy into this world just last week. I hope that this baby would grow up to be a fine young gentleman and that he would follow in his mum's footseps in terms of his career. His name is erm.. Preston something Spreas Federline.. i know the name sounds funny, with her surname before his.. ya but i think its correct. Anyway there's this post messages thingy on britney's official website where u can actually write msg to the couple through the webite congratulating them.. i wrote a msg a few days ago and maybe my msg will be displayed. Lets hope for the best. If u wanna check it out, go to www.britneyspears.com for more details and look out for my name and msg.. But i think they kinda close down that thingy due to over whelming respnse from all around the world.

And with all the common tests coming up, i wanna urge all my classmates and frens to persevere all not give up. This is already the last lap and so give it your very Best and your very All ! Continue to work had and trust in God! For the sec 4s and 5s, the same applies to u and i wish everyone the very best! ;)

ok fatigue-ness is taking over me. i better go recuperate myself and my health.

tatas ppl (:

good evening

2005-09-23T14:24:00.000+08:00

Good evening evening ppl. I'm in a particular good mood today. maybe coz i went for my dose of shopping! But i didnt really enyoj myself due to the fatigue-ness that i was suffering from.

I can be very nice and kind all the times, but that is if you get on the right side of me. That's normally how i treat ppl, with respect and kindness.. However if u ever step on my nerves and go on the wrong side of me, its definitely DOOMS DAY for you. And good luck my friend, if u ever want to try and get me back. No way! All i'll give u is my cold and silent treatment which will last forever.. haha. all the best then byotch! ;)

ok enough of that. So the 1st week of school is pretty hectic and tiring, considering the science test which i didnt do so well anyways. During the 1st week, i had to stay back everday of the week. It was either for cca or council or other dumb stuff. I felt so tired and shack that even philip said that i looked very erm.. unlike myself ( the ever so crazy and bubbly self). So i took the weekend off ad i regained myself.. This week is pretty settled down..

I did a lit mock test (open book) and i almost died. It was supposed to be 50 min but i took 1 h. I think i better go study much harder as the actual test is close book.. haha. actually i havent even start studying yet. opps. but anyway during this test, many ppl came up to me to clarify their doubts and questions and that was one of the reasons why i couldnt finish the paper.. I was annoyed. haha. And my hand was aching terribly after the test and my mind was so tired from trying to find the answers.. But i think studying the play inside out is gonna be challenging and i have only 1 1/2 week left. I'll try my best though. To think that i want to take lit next yr.. ok i better reconsider.

I wanted to start playing maple in order to be fitted into my group of frens.. but i'm sorry to all my frens that have been waiting patiently for me to start and always on the go to help me. I'm sorry to say that until now i havent even created an account. The last account was screwed.. so ya. I think i probably start playing officially after the common tests, i really cant afford my grades to slip. I really do enjoy the game, it seems like real fun from the way u ppl talk about it. really..

I'm probably not gonna blog until after the common tests so..

tatas ppl. cya! ;)

I love my voice ;D

hahas.

So i got back my results. everyone did. And i didnt do that badly as i have expected. I acheieved 2 As, 2Bs, and 1C. Surprising, my results consisted of a 1, 2, 3, 4,5 of which is geog, science, english, math and chinese. haha. I'm not very happy with my results and i'll definitely work harder. You know, for 2 of my subjects, i missed by 1 mark to get the next grade. I'll get 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 5. Ok nvm. At least my average was 67.4.. nit that bad though. I think i won quite alot of ppl but as expected the gap between us have gone smaller and now the gap is just by a couple of marks. This freaks me.. The highest i heard was 70. Not very good though, considering i got 74.4 last term when i clinched the top position. Work hard everyone!

Went to support the SFX youth choir today at the Asian Civilisations Museum. I think that it is only right that shoe them the support after all that the have done for EBC.. haha. The concert was pretty good, considering the 'help' that they were given with the good ceiling which provided them with the resisnance. I was actually looking forward mainly to lydia's solo for O Holy Night. Too bad she didnt come.

Went shopping in the evening with my family again. I totally enjoyed myself.

The holidays are here.. probably i'm gonna slack a lil' and work hard for the next coming term. Why must i have so many activities in just 1 pathetic week? If only i could just say that i'm overseas for the whole week. Hey, good idea ;) Come to think of it, i only need to go back to school on tue and wed.. However with all the added projects. haiz..

Sorry someone for shocking and scaring you with the thing that i did. I'm sorry for playing such a joke and thanks shaun for standing by me. hahas!

I seriously have nothing else to blog abt..

So tatas ppl! ;D

*ps: did i mention that i got highest for chinese - 58 (i know what u'll gonna say) and for geog - 76? oh well, i did.

whatever..

Guess What?!? I'm locked outside the house now!!!!

I think i'll just have to wait outside until someone comes home, which i hope its soon.. Shit! should have remembered to bring the house key. I shouldnt even have come back straight after sch la, should have gone out with philip (like what i always do). See la, so sway. Lucky, i'm not to short and fat and i mananged to climb over the gate. At least now i have a shelter over my head and a place to sit.. haiz.

So i couldnt update recently until now. Coz of all the coucil work and the amount of school work that the teachers piles us up with.. I mean its like cant they just give us a rest? The heavy work load started straight after the common tests. They could have gave us a week break before torturingly preparing us for the end of year exam. (which is in term 4 week 5) no logic at all..

I'm 14 for 12 days but i dont emotionally or physically older by a year. haha. I received quite nice presents.. the ipod mini didnt work out. However i got a leather quiksilver wallet from my sis and renzie. (concidentally xianyong got the same wallet on the same day as me. only different colour.) The wallet's nice. Next i got a inspiration display ornament from kenny and xianyong. That really inspires me each time i looked at it. Thanks. I received a card from philip and guo wei and some stuff from guo wei and rayston. Sorry i couldnt open it due to my busi-ness. My mum didnt know what to get for me so she gave me an ang pow which is currently slacking away in my bank account. My father got me lots of clothes and a pair of slippers when we when to the OP warehouse sale. Shaun sent me an E-card but due to something problems, i didnt received it. Thanks anyway. To conclude, thanks for everything that everyone had given me. Really appreciate it.. And zkai still owes me a bag from 77th street. hmmm..

I think i had the best b'day in like so many years. After school on fri, i went to j8 with a whole grp of frens consisting of philip, daryl, zkai, kenny, rayston, lennart and myself. Philip and i went to haagen daz to meet the grp of them as they enjoying themselves even before we finished lessons. So then after chatting and squeezing into the chairs, we went for lunch and in the first time of my life, i got to decide where to go for lunch. That's the advantage of being the b'day boy. So we went to kfc as i didnt want to go broke after my b'day lunch. We ordered a family meal as 2 of them didnt want to eat. and we started indulging ourselves in the food. The meal was esp enjoying. I think its becoz of the frens and company that make a big difference. That's what frens are for. Before lunch, zkai, lennart and darly went to look for the bag for me and they found one suitable one in 77th street. They took a picture of it and showed it to me. It was quite nice and of coz i needed a new bag desperately as my old bag (having used for 4 yrs) is tearing into pieces. ok maybe i'm exaggerating a lil'. After lunch, we went to daryl's house before going to zkai's house. ;D

We had the intention to use zkai's karaoke room to practise our vocals but in the end, i did nothing as his El frens were there also. We lazed around and soon my parents rushed me to get home to prepare for me b'day dinner. I was excited.

I arrived homw anticipating my presents which they were suppossed to give me the night before. (but they claimed that didnt have any presents for me.) I'm talking about my family. So i was disappointed and got into a lil' rage as they gave me a home-made pencil holder made of toilet rolls. (the logo and name of quiksilver was drawn on it to tease me) haha.. I went to bathe and dressed up. We went to suntec for dinner at surf n turf. That place is nice. I ate some baked rice stuff and at the end of a filling and enjoying dinner, my sister presented me with the wallet. However i actually knew that they bought a wallet for me as i said i needed one. But i didnt expect to be so appealing in design. I did a silent scream as my da forbade me to really scream. I think the sight of me being so excited and closing my eyes to upwrap my present was kind of embarrasing. haha.

I've really enjoyed my 14th b'day alot.. ;p

To be honest, i didnt do so well for this term as compared to last term. I dunno the reason as i've worked equally hard. Well probably i was a lil' to complacent when i received my results last term. The results are as follows:

English - I did quite ok for almost all the component except that i lost to shaun tremdously for compre and summary. and he beat me in journal by 1/2 mark. (its was vice versa last term). We got the highest in class nevertheless. So for the overall results, i got 69!!! I more mark and i'll get a A.. Of coz i'm not the first this time. The highest was 73, not very good as compared to last term. The components were not in favour i guess.

Math - Puh-leeze. I totally flunked it. For the common test, i passed by 1/2 mark where everyone was like passing by 4-7 marks. I mean what happened to me? i looked through the paper but i couldnt find any careless mistakes. That means that i really dunno my stuff. I must really work doubly hard this holiday. For the overall results, i got around 62. Its quite surprising as i thought i'll get 50 plus due to my badly done test.. Guess my other components pulled me up. That's a advantage of having common tests than having exams. If u happen to screw up something, u dont screw up the entire subject.

Chinese- i got second in class for the common test although i didnt do so well for the class test. But who cares? Common tests carry the highest percentage. And so i got back my results today and i got highest in class!.. together with 3 other frens. I feel contented already. My mark was 58 anyway and only 15 ppl passed chinese. That clearly shows the chinese teacher's incompetence.

Science - i didnt do so well for both my common and class test. And so my score was slightly above average. 71. highest was 80. My frens won me as usual and i feel happy for them.

Geog - i did my best and i'm quite happy with my common test. 23/30. i mean althought i'm not the highest in class (like history) but i did my best. I made some careless mistakes here and there though which coz me important marks. opps. but i'll just continue to work hard as there's no point crying over spilt milk. I mean all of us make careless mistakes here and there and i definitely cant go blaming myself for every timy mistake that i make. Life is too short for those. So i feel confident of scoring well.

So looks like this term i may get 2A if i'm lucky. So i'm really gonna work triply hard. sometimes i just feel so disappointed in myself. I gave it a thought and maybe lady luck and God's blessings were upon me last term. Its just i dont realized it and got complacent. That's only human right? so i'm gonna learn from my mistake. There's a science class test in week 1 of term 4. oh no.

This few days of lesson is kind of a bore for everyone.. Everyone's waiting for the 1 week school break where they could just play on their coms all day. I think for me i'll most probably do my work and sleep. That's what i always do during holidays and shopping is a no-no as my sis needs to prepare for her o's.

Now, let me wish the sec 4s all the best for your last lap of hard work. Continue to trust in God and to work hard. You will difinetly received your desired results. Do not ever give up for no one has given up on you. All the best. (its my turn 2 yrs down the road. =)

Rumours are always not true and they are always hurting either to yourself, others, or both. A rumour broke up recently and this caused tension between 2 frens. What will rumours gain you? Fame? stupid.. However rumours are not the worst, know what's? Gossipping! Only pl who are sick and tired of their lives and likes to talk behind others does that. That'll only allow others to see what an ass are u. (i think that also implies to me to a certain extent.

To end off, let me apologise to one of my classmate whose tablet my frens and i caused to drop to the ground with a loud bang! We were poking each other and i accidentally pushed a table with the big butt of me and caused the tablet to fall. This is caused by actions of playfulness. I felt very remorseful and terrible.. sorry.

I'm still stucked outside the house, at the same spot. haiz. renzie and my sis are coming back to open the door for me. hurry la, slow coaches! ;)

ok, so the istana thing and the esplanade concert was a great sucess. At least to my expectation. Many things happened then and it was quite a emotional experience for all of us due to the departing sec 4s.. What happen during the first part of sunday is as follows:

1) I woke up in the morning at 7 plus, bathe, ate instant noodles and had a confrence with my friends.
2) I left the house at 9 am and took a bus to school. I arrive at 9.35 am.
3) The church choir and ebv were already there (i was a lil' late) and we started arranging our positions and got our voices warmed up. Soon, the primary school came and joined us too.
4) We boarded the bus for istana and on the way there, guo wei, arron and i were listening to our mp3 and we were singing along.
5) We alighted the bus and slowly 'checked in' into istana itself. That process was so long, and by the time we got to the meeting place, about 45 min had passed.
6) We gathered at an empty area and practise for about 1/2 h. We practise our esplanade and apparently, the church choir learnt those songs too.
7) We may our way to the grass patch were we were supposed to perform. The peace statue were covered with a red cloth and there was like an openhouse going on. Think its national day's.
8) Next, we waited under the hot sun for what seems like hours and occansionally made water trips.
9) After a long and tiring wait, the president finally came and we sang the song. It was quite perfectly done. There was a group of reporters around him and mr lee and the lady who created the statue wee of coz with him.
10) All these while, we talked to one another and i even made friends from the church choir. haha. ;)
11) The stupid compere even announced us a Chinese High school. At that moment, everyone was shocked and we didnt want to sing. Some were angry. Lucky for us, he realised his mistake and corrected it immediately. What an embarrasment!
12) We separated from the church choir as we needed to make our way to esplanade already.

Coming up is what happened during the esplande concert (it was pretty slack):

1) We reached esplande a short while and squeeze into the changing room to put out stuff and to settle down. The vain ones were seen crowding and pushing their way through the toilet. I wasnt one of them ok! ;D
2) We changed into out choir uniforms despite all the sweat emiting from our bodies and we waited at the life lobby for the final rehearsal to begin. We chatted and took some photos.
3) Soon the rehearsal started and it went quite well frankly.
4) We had our dinner (which consisted of rice, 2 chicken, 1 fish and a few strands of vegs). And we were told to rest and relaxed and wait for the performance to start. Of coz knowing us, we made use of the chance to chat with one another and to take any remaning pictures with each other.
5) So our performance started and it went very well. The crowd were excited esp during luk luk and circle of life. The animal noises in circle of life was awesome and everthing just went well. I sang my heart out knowing that this would be the sec 4s last official performance and so i enjoyed it very much with them for the last time.. Everything blanded well and a mix of emotions stirred up inside me.
6) After our performance, many sec 4s felt very sad and they some shed a few tears. I too was tearing a bit as many of them are my good friends and it is only natural to feel sad. Some managed to hide their sorrow while others expressed it out. The atmosphere was truly touching and warm feeling.
7) 30 of us had to go and guide the primary school choir into the hall again for the grand finale. My 'boy' was pretty much adorable as i previously know him due to my past existance in the primary school choir.. Nevertheless, we chatted and i even took a photo with him. When aaron gian tried to steal him away from me, he got angry and didnt talk to aaron. ha! just too bad, aaron! he only wants me! =)
8) The grand finale was quite disatrous and made everyone mad. After we sang the school song, certain ppl started throwing the bouquet of flowers for the choir around and it was an ugly sight. Moreover, some ppl started throwing light sticks into the air and into the crowd. I admit that i was one of them due to the influence of shaun, however i followed my stick as it spun into the air and i saw the someone caught it before it became dangerous.
9) Once in the changing room, mr leong blew his top about the throwing of light sticks. However he put the biggest blame on the co ppl who started everything first (which he claimed). I dunno.. Then we got dismissed and i went to find my parents and renzie's.
10) We went for supper at lau pa sat sitting renzie's uncle's extravagant mpv. It was cool sitting in one and after the sastifing and filling supper, i felt asleep in the car while going home. Opps.

Let's just say that this had definitely been a great experience for me. I'll certainly missed the sec 4s when they leave, but life has to go on. And all these are part and parcel and life..

I kind of lost my voice the next day due to excessive singing for 3 consecutive days.. luckily i didnt lose it forever.. I rested well for the next 3 days and many things happened concerning many of my closest friends..

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY IN ANOTHER 1/2 H. I'M GONNA BE 14. HAPPY BRTHDAY TO ME..

The programme for tmr is as follows..
1) go shopping with zkai and others for my present.
2) go home for Birthday Treat from my family.
3) go supper with renzie.
4) i dunno.. probably many more.

I wonder what i'll get for my presents. My sis and renzie are giving me a leather wallet (that's for sure due to inside info). My dad maybe an iPod mini. i dunno about that one.. And i hope my mum and my friends will be give me some nice presents too! ;) So what if i'm present-minded?!?

common test

2005-08-06T23:53:00.000+08:00

Hi there!

Due to time constraint, i can only share with you abt 20% of what's running through my mind right now. I'm sorry i cannot share with u all at once due to the common test and everything else that's had kept me so busy.. I shall talk abt one of the most important matter that desperately once to get out of this pea size brain of mine.. ;D

English - It was argumentative writing. The paper was relatively easy to me. Not sure abt the rest. I chose the topic "Teenagers lead boring lives". I found it easier to talk abt than the other topic which is abt winning in sports. Being a teengaer myself, i would of coz disagree with the statement.. And i began writing my 4 1/2 pages essay. Many people said i was crazy to write an essay with such a long length. However i believe one has t let his creative ideas develop and be put into the writing. My ideas were quite ok, but my favourite part when i rebuttal my 2 counter arguments.. The reader/marker should be convinced with my essay. yup that's abt all for english. Thinki i'll do quite well but still cannot be that sure.

Math - The paper was quite ok howere some of the questions to me were mind teasers and its really enchances your creativity. I left onu abt 1 1/2 questions which i thought were quite tough after all.. After the test, i found out from my friends that 1 of the question were very easy and it only takes the paper to be rotated around and the problem could be solved. I lost abt 2 marks from it, moreover 1 mark from this paper will be equals to 2 marks in my CA marks. Think i wont do so well in math this time.. Like when did i ever?

Science - I forgot some of my sec 1 geog work whic was tested in science. The question was to esplain hoe does wind energy come indirectly from the sun's energy. In the last desperate 5 min, i answered that wind is formed because of the sun's heat which cause the expansion and contraction of the clouds. i know its stupid, dont laugh.. Other than that question, the rest was pretty fine and nothing to comment abt..

Geog - My favoutrite subject as it just involves a lot of memorising, just like history.. And so i memorised on wed night.. I think i did relatively well for geog and almost all the questions were all right. Those that i didnt know were solved ny mervin, who was seating right beside me. And i helped me in the questions that he was unsure of. All this while, our ditzy chinese teacher was busy staring at his work in front that he hardly life up his head to check on us. The worst think is that he wrote "History" on the board as our subject.. one one corrected him as we were all giggling once in a while.. Until the last 5 min of the paper, he changed the subject and with a embarrassement on his face, he told the class off for not correcting him. so funny.

Chinese - Chinese was easy compared to the last class test which i scored 19/50. That test was very difficult and only 1 person in my class passed. How dumb to set such a paper and no one passes. So this paper was easy however i found that the compre was kind of high level as every questions needed you to share and express your thoughts. It was manageable nevertheless.

I thought the end of the common test signals the end of headaches and fatigueness and back to my 24 h sleep life. But no! I had this whole weekend burned due to the annual esplanade concert and performance at the istana, that is tmr..

On fri straight after the common test, we left class after 2 periods and went for dull-dres rehearsal in the hall with the other aesthetic group. After the wasting time rehearsal, we went for out dinner and we came back at 6. 15 to continue to do out choir practice until 8 pm. The ebv and church choir came to join us to practice with us.. It was quite ok i guess, the sound was very much improved. The church choir was good, they were very expressive in their words. And we got this tee for the istana performance that has 'peace' on it. I think i'll never gonna wear it out of the house ever again. So guhross!

After choir prac i went to my sis honour;s day at toa payoh hub. Took a bus there with jing kang. When i reached the the prize presentation was almost over and the concert soon started. The choir was a total letdown (as expected). The altos were stronger than the sops and the sops ere supportless and their high notes were totally weak and airy. ewww! The best itme was one which was put up by the indonesian scholars. Thye did a song and i traditional dance.. the mves were amazing and their timing was perfect. The cheerleading was funny, the cheerleaders couldnt lift one of the centre gals up and she fell while they were trying to do so. It must be really embarrasing for them.

After the everything ended, we went for refreshment outside and then supper (kway chap) at bishan. The highlight was there clarence and i saw ms thian and wang juinn walking together. What were they doing together and 10 plus in the night?!? I wind down the car window and both of us shouted for them. However a bush came into our sight ans we lost them. We quickly got out of the car and went to search for them.. But they were nowhere to be found. Later my mum said that they must have flagged a taxi immediately to avoid being seen. On sat, she told zheng kai that she spotted me the day before. I told the zheng kai that it was i who spotted her, not the other way round. She was just trying to make things sound to her advantage.. so scandalous.

Today i went to sfx church to practice with the church choir before our istana performance tmr. The prac was ok and it lasted for abt 1 h. I couldnt blast in the open due to the scorching heat. haiz. I introduced myself to lydia, someone from the church choir who was concidentally my sis's fren also. haha. After everything ended, some frens and i went to chomp chomp to have a bite. There aaron started talking abt having to leave us when this year ends and that tmr is the sec 4s lats performance. It stirred up lots of emotions within us and all of us felt a litlle sad. However i told myslef to cherish whatever time i hvae left with them and to enjoy all these moments.

Tmr is the big day, all the best everyone and remembered all the things that mr leong told us. Enhoy yourselves!

*I will not be top in class this term already.. Looking at my english alone, i got only 31 for compre summary while shaun got 36.5.. Its 40% of this ca and thus plays a large part in the marks. After careful calculation, i realised that it may be tight for me to even get an a2. What is this? what happed to me 80 something marks?!? I'm also losing out to some of my classmates in other tests. Izzit they catch up? or i deproved? nvm, i must doubly hard next term in order to achieve my goal. OF coz, last term's result consisted of 50% luck as the components favoured me. I need all the luck and God's blessings that i can get. Shuan will be my secret target for the next term. Lets hope that my other subjects will pull me up..

Will update you on somemore matters the next time. I've only got 6 h of rest before the big day. Goodnight and tatas! ;)

2005-07-23T23:16:00.000+08:00

The reason as to why i delelted the last entry is cus too many ppl have read and known about it.. Let's just say some really-surprised me people..

So i'm blooging again, after what seems like a week?? ok so here goes..

I felt sick again last week, mon and tue, same old sickness.. weak body. So as usual, i stayed home for 2 long days.. Watching tv and catching up with my fatigueness.. And i heard that i've missed alot frm class, so i was worried whether i would be able to catch up on wed.. However, i passed the virus to my mum, and she took mc on wed and thu. So i had to go back early to accompany her. What a good boy i am ;)

Wed came and i managed to catch up on lesson and everything else. It was abit more hectic, but what can i say? So i spent my day sleeping and rushing through my work..

Thu came (drama night) and we had free double period for english. And this really young and poser relieve teacher came to pass us the work that out teacher had for us. to think that we thought we had 2 free periods. That idiotic teacher has a american slank mind you. But one think nice was that i totally told shaun in a loud whisper that his pants was so damn low, and it heard it! He went behind the teacher's desk to pull his pants up, and he stared at me with those eyes. Of coz, i stared back with more of those eyes. haha. and throughout lesson he was starring at shaun and i as we discussing our work. At the end of the lesson, i heard from my frens that he asked for my name. opps! got myself into trouble.. but who cares ?

Later during the day, rao gave us a surprise but telling us that we were due for 2 class tests tmr during his double period. One was the normal close passage and compre test, while the other was a letter writing test. haiz. So i spent my thu trying to revise for 3 tests. The 2 chinese tests and a science test which was due the next day also. Plus my hw..

Fri came and i was quite worried about the 3 tests, but what has to come has to come. Daryl kept pleading with me to go to his hse. I insisted otherwise at first, but gave in later anyway.

The chinese test were due. Rao just came in and wrote this on the board: Chinese test, 8.50 to 9.40. The class were very nosiy and chaotic at the time, he was sitting at the teacher's desk waiting. At 8 55, he fianlly spoke up, he told us that if we didnt keep quiet, he wouldnt start the test but it would end at 9 40 no matter what. How bitchy was that! so it took us another 5 min to settle down and then he spoke again. He said he wouldnt start if out tables werent separated. By the time it started, it was already 9 03.. To add salt to the wound, the tests were so difficult. The close passage i literally didnt know what it was talking abt and i was picking the choices any howly.. the compre was worst. The answers were mostly inference question.. There was no break due to the time constraint. Next was the letter writing test staright away. Before that, he punished us by standing. How lame.. pls lorz, test still do these kind of childish pnishment. Then he gave us the details (which didnthave an address). haiz. he didnt tell us the time limit. I finished the test in time anyway. The tests were so sick and screwed man. I heaved a sign of relieve as i walked out of class for recess..

After recess was music, where we continued our les miserables, which as always and ever so interesting. Our music teacher told us abt a singing assignment that was due a few weeks later. I'll probably be doing 1000 miles with my frens. ha! hope shaun learns his piano part well and everything will go well. The nest period was english and our teacher wasnt here again due to the drama night. This time we had a better relieve teacher and we made use to revise our science test which was due the next and last period. Althoug hhw was given, no one did it. Some other were doing some other stuff on their com. hmmm..

The scence was rather easy. It was actually last yr's paper with a lil edting. Thanks to philip that i knew the question that was gonna come out, and it did! and i was prepared. Thanks philip! ;D

After going home staright after school for 4 consecutive days, phlip and i went to daryl's hse. We went to the playground. not to play but we chit-chat. (we did play initially, but i almost fell so we decided to stop the game) Then we went to his hse for lunch. His dog had a sore eye, poor thing. After lunch, we had the nicest adventure that i had for ages.. We decided to follow drain that led us to a secrea path. It passed by RI (the waterpolo team were splashing abt, so noisy. haha) and we ended up in the frain behind the ppl's hse. So fun, we had to balance on the side and dolging potted plants, rocks, sharp edges, and hanging clothes. haha. We helped each other as usual and soon led by daryl, we fianlly 'completed' the whoole secret path. So we headed out same way back. And this time we decided to stop at the other playground for the swing. but unfortunately, we met this mad man and decided to run and scream! wearing our uniform!! wanted to watch desperate, but we didnt had time, so i gave it a rest.

I headed home, and spent the rest of my night watching tv and reading the latest harry potter book that my fren sent me online. 827 pages?!? haha. read only until chpt 4. No hw done hat day but it was definitely a eventful and enjoyable day. ;) the book was great too!

I couldnt really relax the next day as i was supposed to return to sch to help with the the drama night packing in NAFA.. however that info wasnt true at all! we were actually told to paint an area of an sch with a coat of white was that place was to put up the art exhibiton and all the butterflies that we were gonna fold on mon.. The painting was really hard work and my clothes got itself pokka dotted. My adidas shoes too! shouldnt have wore those. However we had a fun time chatting with each other as we work. And i found out that my best partner to work with is philip as both of us have some kind of 'telepathy' that worked very well of we're painting the same wall. We had a free lunch and the food was quite ok la. Some teachers were very helpful and some were very useless. ms tan li choo and valerie tan were those 2. I bet u guys know who fit which catergory. The highlight of that day was when we were told to wash up, we had a hard time trying to get rid of all the paint. The fun started when i decided to fill up the huge paint contanier which still contained some paint with water. The colour was totally milk and i called it a milk bath nad all of us put our hands in it as if it really was. haha. then i started to pretend like the lux spokesperson and advertised for the lux superrich body milk beth. everyone had a good laugh and then later i inevnted the lux body scrub which was actually th paint brush. haha how crappy can i get.. totally felt like joanne peh. haha. Later after washing up, we threw the the large styrofoam board in the air and it float like large freesbee. Although much styrofoam became separated from the main piece due to the hitting. So funny, then i took a cab home with my fren. was to tired to take bus and my feet was killing me..

When i arrived home, i was welcome with a telling off from my father abt the amt of paint from my body. Then i went to bath and went to try and take off the paint from my shorts mainly, shirt and my adidas shoe!! In the edn, oit was clarence who was desperately bending over my soapy shorts scratching out the dried paint with his nails. I didnt know how to help. So my sis coated the shorts and shirt with dyname and soaked it in water. Thanks clarecne and sis. Then i sis my math hw which i didnt touch on the previous day. It was quite confusing and clarence had to help in for almost every question. Thanks again man.

Went to town for shopping in the evening and took my dinner. I think i took abt 1 and a half hr to type this entry. Think i must turn i early for enough rest before the early rise and shine for church.

Managed to find a some time off to blog.. so today i'm free without hw, projects or whatsoever..

ok so i've revovered already. Not fully, but almost there.. still on antibiotics though. And there's still a little phelgm in my throat, that's what making my singing so chocky.

The highlight of these few days is probably the change of the form teacher.. That's what i believe everyone overjoyed about. Well, our form teacher became mr ling, who is also our science teacher. He replaced the thian bitch. Unfortunately, i was absent on fri and didnt get to see the reactions of my classmates and to join in the cheering, in front of her! The only thing i'm waiting for mr ling to do is to change the seat of mine. That place can give anyone hell!! It has no ventilation, no fan, and worst still its right at the corner. Anyone can die seating there. Except those that does things with their coms in class which they're not supposed to..

Had home econs on thu, my presentation with shaun was quite ok. It was the only one which put a smile on ms davora face. haha.. And i suck at backstitch!! whatever.. missed technical run for choir too. Was really quite sick already. heard leong was quite pissed.

Like i said, was absent on fri. I was really sick ok (to those who thought i feign ill) Maybe that was a bad day to be absent as i missed the first lab lesson, les miserables for music!!!, and merchant of venice scene 2.. haiz. Luckily, the always-very-helpful clarence helped me to checked with shaun for the hw.. Apparently, no hw and class work was being issued out on fri.. however today i was proved otherwise..

Missed the concert at siglap on fri night. Heard that i was lucky i didnt go as it was terrible. A few taiwanese old hag screaming away, but i also Vj's performance.. esp parmugan. anyway i couldnt scream along that time, so what's the point of hearing it.

The weekend was a pretty normal one.. stayed home most of the time and caught up with my fatigueness.. =D

Monday's choir was pretty boring. Sops were the best i think.. leong had to spend an hour plus going through such a simple song and the faults were all with the other sections.. haiz. Heard the china choir for the first time.. they were all pretty tired i guess.

Investitue's tmr.. so rehearsal came quite often. btw, cedric's doing solo for the performance tmr.. so watch out for him. Anyway, just wasting my whole afternoon today staying back to do the gifts for the invited guests tmr. They actually tricked us into saying that this was a investiture final rehearsal. How cheap! Quite nervous for tmr.. hope i dont screw up anything or
ditz anything. Got to attend lessons until 9 40 am only.. haha. Then all the way till investiture.

The compre and summary test is this thu.. really scared that i may do badly as the practice paper i didnt really do well. Anyway philip said that the paper was quite tough for him, he said the summary was easy but instead the compre and vocab words are the ones which are difficult. Just hope for the best.

China choir members are flying off this fri.. Wish them all the best and pray hat God will protect the whole choir when they are in china. hope no one gets seriously ill and that they'll take the necessary precaution.. wish them i could send them off on fri. I believe that they'll al enjoy themselves overseas.

Desperate housewives had ended its 1st season.. The whole 23 episodes were greatly enjoyed by many i believe, and i hope that the 2nd season will be released soon. esp that the conclusion is left hanging. However, at least all the confusion and suspicion from the start has been cleared .. =)

The 5th harry potter is coming out this fri.. so excited. I'll just probably cope the book from guo wei as he has his o levels to prepare and cant possibly read the book at this moment. I just totally love my smart ideas. oh yeah

Just ate some durians just now, yum yum.. and i only paid $2 for 10 durians.. They are the miniature ones of coz. Nevertheless, they taste wonderful and even had some baby pieces! so cute! My parents just went to get 10 more and we'll have them after dinner. cant wait. In case you're wondering where to get them from, they can be bought aat ang mo kio ave 1.. be sure to search for the cheapest stall as there are a few stalls there selling durians too! *)

Carrie underwood's 1st single is out, Inside Your Heaven. Go catch it on radio if you can or download it.. its not as nice as the live performance though..

*ps. do i seem like the junior of jonathan lau (those who knows him). I proved them wrong man. Just wait and see. But if i'm really am, do tell me ok? i really want to change for the better. Thanks

Got to go have my dinner now.. This is really a long entry. tatas! ;

sick..

2005-07-07T08:32:00.000+08:00

Chinese lesson now, rao didn't come..

Felt sick, got flu, cough, sore throat and and slight fever.. *cough cough* Probably got the virus from my dad.. Cant even use my falsetto now and whenever i try to produce a note, i start coughing and choking terribly.. However, on the contridictingly, my voice seemed to got a few semitones higher. opps.

Life these days have been pretty busy, esp in the night, where piles of project and hw stands starring at me, waiting for me to complete them. Dunno why projects come one after another, recently they came at such a rapid pace that almost everyday, a new project will surface.. And the datelines are like only a week! Moreover, time become so precious that we find it so hard to just even meet after school. Everyone has their own agenda..

I think this means no more 'blind mice' at daryl's.. haiz ;(

Will officially blog again when there is something interesting and when i'm well again. (pray for me!)

School starts again

2005-06-28T22:21:00.000+08:00

2 days of suffering in school have already passed.. Ya its the second day of school. Everything seemed pretty normal except that i had a little trouble waking up on both days (i bet everyone did)..

On m,on, i went to sch with a feeling of excitement with a tingle of anxiety as i havent really completed all my hw yet.. My classmates are still the same, playing lan games all day but most of them have grown taller (i did too!). ;D

After morning assembly was seeing the bitch's face. Apparently neither her attitude nor appearance have changed, so the hatred for her from the whole class were still there. We sorted out our seating arrangement and now i'm seating at the corner row, how nice! It may have some advantage though as from the window beside me, i can see a view of bishan, and if the weather is nice and there's a slight wind, i'll be the first one to experience it and enjoy the coolingness of it. When it gets too hot, i simply shut the shutters. hA! After sorting out our new seating plan, the bitch briefed us on some admin stuff and soon it was the next period.

The next period was PE, arrgh!! PE on mon and tue, 2 days in a row! Thus term our lessons are during the second period, this makes the weather a lil' pleasent for us. The game for this term would be basketball!! The stupidest game i've ever seen. Imagine running after the ball and trying to throw it into the loop? haiz..

We have new teachers. for science, geog, music and lastly art (again). For science, we're taking geog, and out teacher is called mr. ling. He had his first lesson with us today. He seemed quite nice but strict too. He started energy with us already and i find his method of teaching quite ok. Hope i can excell in my science this year.. ;)

Geog, we got back our teacher from last year, Mr. Ng. Yay! everyone likes him and i too believe that i'll do well in my geog this term. We started only on the second lesson which is today as he used yesterday's to get to know us better, lay the gerneral rules and to joke around. The lesson that we started one was rocks, quite interesting and simple!

Teachers come and go so quickly for art. This is already our 3rd teacher for this year. One of my friend commented that maybe this job is cursed, something like the 'Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher' in Harry Potter, haha. This new teacher looks more like a retires granddad. He speaks very simple and little english and delievered the rest of his words mostly in chinese. He made us pay 20 cents for this 3 pieces of stupid paper which silly fishes drawings on top. And at the last 5 min of the lesson, he suddenly started telling us about our hw ehich was to copy the images on those papers and colour it. How lame..

Music, Mr yeo. Heard that he is quite a nice and fun teacher. I'm definitely looking forward to lesson on next fri with him..

There's some youth day celebrartion on fri and we're all gonna get this small piece of white tile. We're supposed to racked our brains and draw something nice. i think i'm gonna draw something colourful and most importantly, i'm gonna sign my big name below it so that everyone will know that the drawing is done by me. Besides, i'm already quite famous in sch already. (LOL)

Sat is homecoming day. haiz, councilors have to report at 7 am!! bet there's free labour to be given out. poor thing right. This is supposed to be a fun time, yet we're slogging like mad.

Other than that, sch's pretty the same. Still trying to adapt to that. Weekly math test, tons of hw, trying to finish up at the last min in the night, sleeping late, cant wake up in the morning etc..

Ok, i'm talking loads of crap. Probably due to the fatigue that i'm experiencing right now..

events

2005-06-22T15:07:00.000+08:00

Just had a nice and refreshing bath.. and gonna relate all the exciting events that happened. This may be the last time i blog though, before the holidays end.

Starting with last fri afternoon, i went back to school after much persuation from my parents and philip, only to end up dancing para para?!?!, and getting my poor and innocent all ached up. It was supposed to be a rehearsal for the perfromance at the SLB investiture this july.. But it ended up learning 3 para dances and getting so shacked! haiz.

In the evening, my family went to dinner with renzie's (that's a real name) family at Genghis Khan at taka.. Its was buffet. They had a wide spread of food and most of the food there was really delicious, so were the price. First there were the cold dishes and it ranged from shushi to abalone. Those were really great starters. Next were the main dishes.. they have beef, chicken, fish etc. And the interesting is that you have to pick your own uncooked food, fix your table number to it, and they will cook it for you and bring it to your table. haha. After a sumptuous meal, we still had dinner. I skipped fruits (its available everyday right?) and i went straight into the cakes, pastries and ice-cream!! Most of the cakes were cheesy and they were fatening too! ;) and the ice-cream was very fatening considering that i took a scoop of every flavour that were there.. My bowl was literally flowing with ice-cream. That place was really great and a nice experience, with the free-flow of drinks and the exquisitive look =D

A lot of other things happened along the way.. but my small and troubled brain couldnt remember all of them..

Mon was choir. This time, we managed to pull through Circle of Life.. we sang through the whole song and it sounded pretty decent. finally..

In the night, i went to a shop in woodlands to have a foot reflexology.. it was very relaxing. I was actually just supposed to accompany my sis to have a massage on her back, and my dad ended up asking me to try for the foot massage too. At first i was a lil' nervous as this was my first time.. not sure if it was painful. But when it started with soaking my leg in a hot tub of brown water, and then proceeding to the massage, i felt relaxed and excited. haha. My legs were finally comfortable and relaxed that night..

Went to my monthly dental appt yesterday. The dentist said that apparently my braces is completed and 3 more months before i can finally removed the horrible metal pieces out of my mouth.. He changed it to the 'finishing' piece and Gosh! the pain was unbearable, esp a few hour later.. i couldnt eat my dinner and ended up eating porridge. The pain reminded me of the first time i fixed that deadly metal into my mouth.

Today i went to the market with my mum to do marketing and i woke up before 8 30am. First time in the holidays! Sucess! In the afternoon, we cooked lor mai kai for the first time using the recipe that i got from my home econs lessons last year. It was quite tedious but it turned out nice ;) . All the hardwork paid off at least..

The holidays are ending at a really alarming rate and i'm dreading as the days passed. Got no choice but to finish up some hated hw.. Have to practise waking up early (doubt i'll be able) and till then, enjoy the last few days of the holidays!

2005-06-16T16:03:00.000+08:00

Did a really great deal of things yesterday.. was really busy and was out the whole day. I was out from 12 pm to 11pm.. haha.

The main purpose of yesterday's 'outing' was to celebrate my mum's birthday!! Happy Birthday to her! ;) Well, we spent the whole day shopping in town. There was never-ending flow of shops to shop around. we went to places like zara, topshop, topman and many more.. Went to eat at hard rock cafe, first time eating there though.. the food was considerably ok.

Although something unpleasent happened during the course of the day, due to the birthday cake (silly right?), everthing was settled within an hour. And everything became as bubbly as ever.

In the evening, after walking for what seems like a hundred hours, we decided to catch a movie. And we decided on Batman Begins. It was quite exciting and nerve chilling i would say.. you definitely wouldnt fall asleep in the cinema no matter how tires you are (i was!). There was a deep and nice plot, the action part was present (a lil' to much that i felt it was violent), and there was a lil' twinge of humor. Overall, the show was quite nice except for the violent part, and it was a lil' bit too long, 2.5 h, could have omit some of the boring parts (there were a few)..

The show ended at 9 plus and we went back to bishan to have our long-awaited dinner as most of the eatery in town were closed. We ate at mos, there we brought out the birthday brownie (supposedly cake) and celebrated my mum's birthday there. We sang a birtjhday song to her(softly of coz) and she was made to blow out the candle.. haha. We filled our stomachs also with rice burgers, fries, and milk tea! =) yum yum.

All of us were glad to go home (who wouldnt after a long and tiring day). When we got home, we realised we've missed our weekly dose of Eye for a Guy, plus it was the final yesterday?!?. I tried calling many of my frens to find out the results and alas, i found out from daryl that wolfgang won. *sob* how could he have won?! My whole family were expecting howard. It wa such a disappointment, and i think i must agree with my sis for saying that denise keller is blind out of anger.. Later on, i found out from my sis fren that denise didnt choose howard coz she thought that he was very fairytale like and she wanted someone who was more down-to-earth.. stupid gal! Would you rather choose a guy who is fairytale like or a guy who is mysterious? haiz..

i slept right into the afternoon today. being pigish again.. Anyway the holidays are coming to an end soo, enjoy it while you can!

2005-06-10T22:11:00.000+08:00

Phew.. when shopping with my mum and sis today, and well i'm bush! I'm totally tired! My legs and back ached from all the walking and i was feeling very restless! We were in town from about only from about noon to early evening, and that's only about 5 hours! and i'm so tired already?! In the past, i could shop the whole day without feeling tired. So this only means 1 thing.. its more shopping for the rest of the June holidays! yeah! ;)

Haven't really been getting on with hw.. just do when i feel like it. I know that this attitude its really bad but i just cannot resist the temptation of doing something else other than hw. Maybe its like the hw and i are like poles on a magnet, and we just repelling each other no matter what. However, i've managed to get a little hw done, and that's a start (although it isn't very fantastic).

And recently, i found out that i'm going crazy over Harry Potter (movies and books) for some reason or another! It's just so crazy. I found myself watching the first 3 movies over and over again, without getting bored?! And i'm like thinking of it the whole day (except maybe when i'm shopping! and sleeping), its totally crazy. I've been thinking maybe i can coax someone into lending me the 6th book when it's being released and to watch the 4th movie the first few days that it's being shown. I dunno.. hope that everything my plans goes well, and that i can stop thinking about it and focus on my studies!

My family and i watched Mr. and Mrs. Smith yesterday. It was quite well done, considering all the stunts that brad and angelina did (that they definitely cant do in reality). A lot of action were invovled and the plot was interesting as well. Even though it was a midnight show, i managed to stay awake throughout (that explains the excitement level of the show). To those ppl who loves action, go catch it! Its definitely worth your money.

Lastly, an update of the different tv shows that i adore (1 being the most important again):
1. Desperate Housewives (its gonna end soon, remember to catch the last few episodes)
2. Charmed (it just started a new season, cant wait to see the excitemeny)
3. Eye of a guy 2 (hope Howard wins!)
4. many others...

That's all for now then! -)

2005-06-08T13:49:00.000+08:00

In the twinkle of the eye, the June holidays have already approached its 2nd week. And this really give me the creeps, 2.5 more weeks to the re-opening of school again. Study stress will over whelmed us again, esp the sec 4s.

I have already finished up about 1/2 of my holiday hw and i did a great deal of housework during this short 1.5 week. Well, at least 1/2 of my hw is cleared now and the house looks perfectly clean. I also caught up on my sleep considering that i'll wake up everyday no earlier than 8. 30 am. haha. ;)

Seems like the Harry Potter craze has gotten over me again, like how it did after watching the 3rd movie. It all started last week when i dugged out the vcd and started to watch it. Then, i took out the 5th book and started to red it all over again (i'm still reading it now btw). Soon, i got so crazy that i kept searching through the internet to find out the release date of the 4th movie. I found that it was november this year in us.. it probably be mid december for singapore. Just have to wait patiently.. However i've watched the trailer and it was awesome! only a little too short. Its still very nice esp the Hermione, shouldnt go into the details of it. So catch it yourself soon!

Choir these days are kinda relax i must say. We have only about 1 prac a week, excluding the china ppl who has like hundreds of them. poor them. Circle of Life is quite ready already (except for the last part). Some of the sops in choir 2 are actually and good while others are just slackers, waiting for the rest to cover up for them. Salmo still needs quite abit of polishing. But well, we should be able to do it.

Other than choir and home, i did a few mre stuff. My frens and i went to catch Madagascar last thu. Its quite funny, lame and has not much of a plot. If you want to just relax and be funny, i'll advise you to catch it. However, if you're looking for something more serious and that's worth your money, go watch something else. The next few shows that i want to watch is Monster-in-law and Batman Begins. Preferably with my family.. "p

In the mean time, stay cool and enjoy your holidays!

2005-06-01T12:49:00.000+08:00

The holidays have finally started.. well, but it seems rather quick. already 3 days into the holidays. How i wish we'll all have a few more months before school starts.. Then we'll all have more time to rest and relax and for our personal time, esp going out with frens. Ha lazy me.

It's been a week since Carrie Underwood has been crowned the 4th Amercian Idol. Much talk about it have been going on.. Some about whether she had an unfair advantage over Bo etc. But much of it had already died down and everything seems quiet and still again.. Well, just waiting for her very 1st album. Country music yeah.

These few days have been rather still.. Here is a brief summary of what i did..

Monday. I woke up at 11 30 am (opps) and immediately prepared myself for choir prac which was at 1. Choir prac was kinda slack, even though we sang really lousy, mr leong wasnt angry and didnt make a fuss about it. Lucky us.. After choir prac, the same few of us went to daryl' hse to play blind mice. sheesh it was damn fun la. haha. In the evening, my family went to town to do shopping. Bought 2 really nice shirts! ;)

Tuesday. I woke up at 12 30 pm (double opps) and slacked the whole day. lazing around. and in the evening, my family went to town again and did grocery shopping!

Wednesday. I woke up at 10 (thanks goodness) and watched cartoons until now. I planned to try to finish some of my holidays hw and then spent the rest of the day swimming? If the weather is nice. and maybe i'll treat myself to a really hot and relaxing bath! ooohhh.

As you can see, my holiday has been rather eventful. But i love it that way! ;P

2005-05-27T22:40:00.000+08:00

Its the last day of school finally.. after much awaiting for this moment to come..

Firstly, i must congratulate CARRIE UNDERWOOD, for becoming the 4th American Idol yesterday. A talent have at least been recognised and acknowledged. I'm just so happy that Carrie won, felt that she was all along one of the best contestants in the competition. Bo's talent must also be recognise and that we thank him for his constant good rock performances. Hope that he'll make it out in the market. For Carrie, it's quite obvious that she's better than the 2nd and 3rd Idols, still losing out to Kelly Clarkson, from my opinion. However, i believe if Carrie is willing and determined, she'll one day be as good as Kelly, or even better. Rock On Carrie!

As i've said, today is the last day of term 2, and certain not very pleasing suitations appear. I was really busy the whole day. Not once was i able to concentrate on the lesson going on in peace, had to worry about stuff that was to be done, for teachers.. haiz.

Something really bad happened today, to me. I won't mention it here. Its about a teacher and a parent. Those who knows, thanls for the concern and suport you've gave and shown me. Those who don't, you not supposed to! However, i'll like to thanks these 3 ppl who showed me great support during the short 15 to 20 min. These ppl are:

1) Zheng Kai - Although you are having chinese O's on mon, thanks for being there for that short 15 to 20 min there to comfort me. Mst importantly, to share with me your same kind of experience. Those words really made me felt much better. Thanks and All the Best for your chinese paper.

2) Daryl - You patted me on the back many times. The pat regained my self-confidence and self esteem. You suggested that i blogged to pour out all my feelings, here i am. You said short yet impactful encouragement. Thanks!

3) Philip - You are a great listener, not a very good counsillor. You tried, i know, and i appreciate that thought of yours very much. Although you were very much the quietest of the 3, i felt your concern and warmth most strongly! Thanks!

Have been going to daryl's hse to play after school everyday from tue. The few of us would play in the playground nearby. We may be childish however those times and moments were enjoyable and memorable. Thanks guys, for all the enjoyment you've gave me. And time passed ever so quickly, before you know it, its the last day of school and its time to go home.. Back to reality..

Anyway, Good Luck and God Bless for those sec 4's who are taking the chinese O's on mon. Namely: Zheng Kai, Kenny, Guo Wei, Rayston, Andrew De, Jing Kang, Clarence and many others. To the rest of my frens, enjoy yourselves during the long-awaited holiday! :)

2005-05-25T22:32:00.000+08:00

An update of the tv shows that i watched (no.1 being most important) :
1. Desperate Housewives
2. American Idol
3. Charmed (coming back soon)
4. Eye of a Guy
5. Ch 8 Drama Serials

School these days are relaxing, however rather tiring also.. Relaxing as common tests are all over and only light studying is required. Tiring becoz almost everyday i need to stay back for this and that. haiz. always so busy..

Apparently, wee seng got so angry with me becoz i couldnt go the debate semi-finals. its just too bad, i've got sth important and personal to attend at that time. you think i didn't want to go meh? Our team could have easily won the semi-finals knowing that we only lost to the other team by 0.5 pts. so wasted right? haiz.

Choir members had a meeting with mr. leong today. Luckily, non- china ppl (me), will really be quite relax for this holiday. Choir starts this fri for us, next mon, next thu for celebration dinner, next next mon and finally next next next next mon. I actually don't mind if we have a little more prac.. These pracs are actually for the espanade concert in july. Really excited. Can't wait.

Lessons also have been rather relax.. in a day, our class would at least have one free period. i bet this applies for ever class. Today was our last lesson with many teachers.. some good some bad.

Tmr's whole CIP day for sec 2. Wonder what is it like. Sounds like fun yet tiring. its like 9am to 4 pm?? haha. that sounds like hardwork. Our CIP is sth like amazing race, where we have to go all around singapore. At the same time, raise funds for the NKF patients. doing abit of charity work here.. But i guess what keeps of us excited is the ultimate top prize. Its a IPOD SHUFFLE! one for everyone in the group.. how exciting. really hope my group can get to win it.

Sec 4 are going through a tough time now. Preparing for your chinese o's on monday. Well, that's only 4 more days to go, so Press On! You guys can do it!

God Bless everyone and Happy Holidays! :P

American Idol

2005-05-25T22:02:00.000+08:00

Phewww.... Just finish watching America Idol. This is actually my first time watching it and it is already like the final. haha. so fast. I enjoyed every minute of it. Here's what i think of one of the finalists..

Well, and my personal idol is CARRIE UNDERWOOD! She totally rocked at all the 3 songs she sang. Bo was also quite good.. but i didn't really like his style. Carrie's best song was the 2nd, 'Independence Day', where she sang her specialty, country, it was totally nice! The 2nd best was her 3rd song, 'Angels Brought Me Here', it was very screamy but no so much to the extent of becoming squirky.. the screams were damn power also.. Her not so good song was her 1st song (sth like "set piece") Both finalists had to sing the same song. Both of them weren't really good at that song as it was neither country or rock. Couldn't blame them.

I would describe Carrie's voice as a mix of Diana deGarmo and Kelly Clarkson, it is very very powerful and impactful and loud, like Kelly. It is also very screamy like Diana deGramo but not as squirky as to overshoot the notes. Guess that's one of the best combination you can get when you joining this kind of competition.. If only i had this combination, i could easily win Singapore Idol. haha. All i have is a mix of Kelly Clarkson, Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears and Anastacia.. haha self-bragging again. haha.

I seriously really hope that Carrie will win Amercian Idol and i believe its would be great if she did a duet with Kelly. It would totally rock man! But then if Bo win (most likely), i will also support him as he deserve it also.. i really have to admit that his a great rocker! Nevertheless, i really hope that americans would vote for Carrie as she is a great country singer and also appealing in her looks! =)

Busy shit

2005-05-19T11:40:00.000+08:00

Finally took some time off from my busy life to blog, where i pen down all the things that have happen and i reflect upon them with my thoughts and feelings. My sore throat is already much better.. after a long and torturous week. Thanks, if u were concerned.. I'm now beside shaun, blogging during chee seng's lesson.

Everyday seems like a busy day for me. Apparently, the innowits that my group was supposed to complete on fri, was left undone. haiz, why cant they complete such a simple task.. Its as simple as copying. Looks like i was wrong to think that they were independent. So, i got a shock when i went back to school on mon. and to make matters worse, Sucking-up Byotch demanded for a explanation and later 40 push-ups. Although i've got a valid reason, i felt that if our group were to get punished.. we should stay united! haha. whatever. anyway, i doubt the byotch even dare to punish me.. i'll just file a formal complaint if she ever dare. I spent the whole day finishing the whole project ALONE. i tried to get my group members to help.. well, but none of them helped although some agreed to help. Lazy pigs! and i managed to hand up a complete project to Byotch during the last lesson. Of coz, we werent punished.. thanks to me! haha!

After school was choir. heard from mr leong that we were gonna performed on friday for some parents. well, no big deal. i bought a ticket for 'Symphony of Voices' Its a annual concert by vj.. i should have just took the extra ticket from bryan. haiz.

On tue, i was really excited about the concert and kept on looking at the time for the whole day.. waiting. And finally, it came. I reached home at 5 pm, bathe and got dressed, and left the house at 5.25 pm.. went to j8 to meet my frens for dinner. It was a small group as some who promised to come, went straight to esplanade (place of the concert). Well, so the 4 of us went for dinner at delifrance.. then went to some light shopping of food. haha. at abt 6.45 pm, we took the mrt down.

The concert was marvellous. really amazed at the quality of vj choir! i was greatly amazed. and i totally enjoyed myself. They sang like 10 over songs.. really wonder how they survived through the long but enjoying (for the audience) concert. Met a few old frens there also, those that were in jc nows. caught up with them a lil. i definitely found that the $21 were worth. After the concert, we took a mrt back and it was like already 11. 30 pm when i got home. dad and sis were all asleep , except my caring mum, who went to the wrt to fetch me. Thanks mum!

Wed was a tiring day for me as i didnt slept really late the last night. Nevertheless, i survived through the day with heavy eyelids and eyebags..

Had choir after that, but it started really late.. due to the sec 4 chinese paper. heard it was really tough. All the Best guys! ya so choir started at 4. 35 pm and it lasted for about 20 min. of which ms guo came to peek, shameless bitch!

Later on, i'm doing student lounge duty with philip. only did it once and philip none. Luckily rayston is coming to keep us company through the boring 2.5 hours..

Hope that the choir dont screwed up the performance tmr. and for all my sec 4 frens, good luck in your preparation for your O's. =)

busy week

2005-05-13T06:44:00.000+08:00

The reason why i'm able to blog is bcoz i'm lying down at my bed at this moment in total darkness and blogging.. Its 6. 50 am... and i'm not going to school.. Apparenly i'm having a bad sore throat from screaming all over bishan at shaun's hse yesterday.. and a flu, dont knw where i got it from. ah crap. Just taking a break from reality, what i've always wanted. Long weekend for me. Before i forget.. It was ms seah on tue and jing kang wed.. HAPPY BELATED B'DAY ! i've already given them each a lovely card, made by myself..

Many eventful thingser the have happened over the pass few days.. but i'll just mention the important ones..

Mon nothing really happened.. i stayed back after school to plan the script for the inter-class debate.. of coz i had the fear as i anticipated wed, the day of the debate.. however, it was being postponed to thu.. bad news yet good news.

Tue our class got back to papers. Chinese and science.. from what i observe and know, i think i scored the highest for chinese, both class and common tests. *thank you*. Although the marks weren't very fantastic.. Science i passed, thank God. But i could've gotten a little higher, due to carelessness.. After school, i seriously forgot what i did and where i went. haha.

Wed was pretty stale during lessons.. it was only after school that the excitement started. i went to the staffroom with kenny and rayston to look for ms seah. After i gave her the card.. her face flushed with happiness. and she started thanking me and the others for their lovely present. then, we started crapping about loads of things.. She wanted us to have coffee with her. In the mean time, while finishing her work, she requested that we helped her with some of her work. and so we did. But after we finished, she was still ever so busy. So after kenny lit's lesson, we went to jing kang's hse to surprise him with his present.. That was our initial plan. and so the plan worked and then we went for dessert with jing kang.. and his mum actually gave him $50 to spent on us.. of coz we didnt accept it at all. and we improvised the b'day cake with a ice-kachang and the candle with a yellow straw stuck in the middle. haha that was the funniest thing of all.. After that, we went back to school to wait for ms seah, only to find that she wasnt ready and we had to wait for another half hour. So we rejected her offer for coffee and i took a cab home woth xian yong.

Thu was the stress day.. i spent every break in between lessons trying to intinalise the debate script.. After school, i went for the debate.. our opponent had arrived yet, so we waited by watching their teams.. and sadly, the other team from my class lostto a team from 2-2 just by 1/2 half. what a waste. Good try anyway! 4 pm came and they still did not arrive. so our team bargained for the walk-over which was promised to us earlier. However, it was being said that the walk-over will get us no points. What the hell! so they arranged another timing for us which happened to be on fri, durinf our lunch time before Sports Nite. how unfair this is. We tried arguing for another day but to no avail. Later, i went to shaun's hse to finish up the innowits project.. but we end up spending 2 hours only on the cover page.. that was bcoz we forgot the format of the project.. And the rets of time were spent on doing lame and silly stuff like screaming at the window *hope the whole bishan heard me*. and playing neopets. I left about 7 30 pm..

fri (now)! Innowits were supposed to be handed out after first period today.. but our group hardly even started. well, i let the group handle it themselves. i've already passed all the materials to shaun through clarence..I only hope that they'll be able to finish it in time and that the group members will cooperate woth shaun. Today is also debate day, if u've forgotten.. well, i wished my team All the Best and may they find a suitable and good replacement. Tonight is also our school's Sports Nite. it will end at about 7 30 pm. Wish clarence All The Best in his running and all the other competitors..

Wow! i think this is the longest entry i've ever written. my room have changed from total darkness to bright and sunny.. haha.. and the time now is 7 40 am.. my class will be having assembly now.. haha. took 50 min just to type all this.. haha. well, gotta go and have some rest already.. probably will wake up at about 9 or 10 later.. and if you're wondering about the FF, lets just say that nothing will be how it used to be anymore..

Common Tests all over!

2005-05-06T18:01:00.000+08:00

Wheeeee!!! The long and torturous common tests are finally over! This is a moment where all the sec 1s to 3s have been long-awaiting for.. I think that i'll do quite well for english and history, math and chinese ok.. science, nah dont even wanna think about it. It seems like i can relax after the common tests.. watch my videos, pig out and do all sorts of things.. well but maybe not, i just realised that i've got a lot of assignments that i brushed aside bcoz of my common tests.. But now that everything is over, i guess i must start working on them. Moreover, pearlie just told our class that 2 of our projects and assignment this term will account for 40% of next term marks... That's like what the hell?!?! Anyway, i'm still gonna slack for the rest of the term.. i deserve a good break to recuperate myself..

Went for a debate meeting and a mini workshop today.. I was selected for the inter-class debate competition.. I was also made the leader (recomended by kris).. haiz. I dont even know a damn thing about debating.. However today's workshop enlightened me and at least i know the basics.. and apparently, kris is writing all the scripts for his grp members while wee seng claimed that he doesnt want to 'spoon-feed' us.. how disappointing. If only i didnt get selected for this debate thingy.. What's the point anyway? i'll get kicked out at the first or second round.. just like how i got kicked out from CHMA..

Speaking of CHMA, although it has really taken a toll on me.. and now i find it difficult to face up to certain ppl... Thanks once again for all the support that u guys have shown me despite my disappointment.. U guys really play a big part in my life..

Chma, not in finals!

2005-05-04T17:43:00.000+08:00

'Andrew, face up to reality, u are not in CHMA anymore." Yes, as many of u know, i'm not in the finals of CHMA..

During assembly before the names were announced.. i had a bad feeling that i wont be in. through enough when there was only 6 finalists, my fears were more or less confirmed... After the 6th name was announce, i was stunned! I felt a cold and hard knife piercing through my heart bearing the message :Andrew, u r not in the finals. I'm so disappointed in u.. Ur singing sux!. The knife pierced through my heart leaving fresh red blood gushing out. However i controlled.. I put on the happiest expression that i could and i was trying not to show the internal bleeding that was inside of me.. pinkish spots were shown though, to those around me.
I wanted to scream, but i coulndnt. I wanted to cry, but i couldnt. The only thing i could do was to keep the sorrow and hurt inside of myself.. I felt like i was in a dream. A frightening and scary dream.. I felt that life didnt have purpose anymore..

I'm sorry about the aftermath of the results.. I'm sorry for throwing my 'temper' at a few of u.. and for hitting a few of u.. However, i really wanna thanks u guys for encouraging me and the thought about trying again next year.. and trying to bring me back to reality.. Thanks for giving me the slaps that woke me up.. Thanks for telling me that i'm not a failure..Last but not least, i wanna thank u guys who have been showing me support from the time when i thought of joining CHMA, till today.. Really appreciate them, esp wee seng who encouraged me by using his ways of threatening.. I'm sorry to disappoint you guys.. But i will not give up..

"Failure is another stepping stone, leading to success".. Still, if only all these were part of a frigthening and scary dream...

On a brighter note, common tests were quite ok.. English and Chinese were both moderate.. Science was abit of a killer.. Well anyway, gotta go study for history to get good results again.. All the Best for your common tests..

Many troubles..

2005-04-30T20:57:00.000+08:00

Many eventful things have happen during these few days which i like to keep confidential.. its about the FF.. I hope u guys dont mind.. I just hope that kenny and gwei and learn to forgive zkai. I'm not bias or anything, its just that i think he really hopes that this frenship can be repaired and things can be normal again. I believe everyone had a good intention..

Well, the results of CHMA auditions are still not out yet.. and this is making me nervous as i'm not sure wether i'm in.. The reason of the uncertainty is bcoz there are simply too many good singers this yr and they cant probably allow too many finalists.. Let's hope that all goes well. haiz.

I've been visiting ppl's blog every now and then. And i realised that many ppl are ery worried about the common test. I'm worried too! Its starts like on tue?? and i've barely started my revision on anything.. Of coz, i dont have to revision much as for almost every subject, my class already been tested in some class tests. But then i think i've to go full steam for LE.. Just started my revision only.. and this is the first time i'm taking a real Lit test.. not sure if i'll make it..

It was philip b'day on fri.. we couldnt celebrate for him as the sec 4s were having their chinese paper. and everyone was kinda stressed up with studies and everything. haiz. felt really bad that i didnt have time to even give him a b'day card.. guess i'll have to make it up to him after the common tests when everyone is free to celebrate..

Enough said.. The Glam Prince (the new name for myself) signing off...

2005-04-27T19:21:00.000+08:00

"All my life i've been waiting for u to bring a fairytale my way. Been living in a fantasy without meaning.." Yes, It was a Sucess again! Of course it just bcoz of the musical guidance that i shared with them. Oh my. Although it was a little shaky at the beginning, it improved tremendously and gained the support of the crowd. I feel that this is something to be praised, for first timers. You guys should be able to make of to the Finals. Have faith in yourselves! I've got a Strong feeling that both of us will enter the Finals. We would encourage and spur each other on during those restless and boring weekly practices.

Some people just don't know when to quit. Let me tell u, when the limit goes, I can do anything u cant imagine. So u better stop what you're doing. Its enough you comment on me, but my must you comment so badly about my good friend? Do you know that by behaving in Such a manner, you are just conveying a simple message to the public. That you are childish, rude, naive, silly etc. You have brought much shame to your loved ones and those that canes about you. I'm utterly disappointed on you.

In case u don't know who I'm referring to in the above paragraph , then don't bother about what I said. I will not mention IT'S name out of respect of IT (if there is any). I'm sure IT will know that I'm referring to him.

Well, so there u have it. Stress lenes ane are going higher these days. It's inevitable just hare to face it bravely. Just had my SPA today, it was quite Challenging I must say, almost didn't have enough time to finisher. Lucky I did. haha. Common tests ane next week, must really work harder to get my distinctions. So buck up Andrew.
