Unsinkable

****************************************************

Wanted to write a clever poem on cramps, but just totally didn't have the mood (or tolerance).

****************************************************

I logged on to Friendster just now. And saw that Jen Yuh updated her profile. Damn! I miss that woman. Kinda sad to realise that the only photo I have of us is one we took before the release of O (!) levels results.

Char, me and Jen

Haha. Also don't know how come can just cry looking at her.. I think everyone with real, true friends will understand how a simple "Love you!" or "I'm always here for you!" in any lousy, old email can totally make your day.

Haha. I remember how you always scold me for playing in the rain on the way to the mrt station, and your usual "Are you not going to eat lunch again?" and subsequent "can you please remember to have lunch?!" when you went over to kiwiland.

It's kinda funny thinking back. How you kept thinking you were 14 and how I keep thinking I'm 13 because of our register numbers. How we got closer just because we sit one in front of the other during exams. How I started calling you auntie because Tan Cheng Wee was my daddy. Haha.

I mean, life is so amazing isn't it? Some shitty things came first, so I know how wonderful it is to have you, then shitty things that come later are not even shitty. New people come, some stay, some go. But this connection never weakens.

It sucks la. That the three of us only get to spend 4 hours together once every 2 years. But every 4 hours always seems to be the best 4 hours ever, and each time it seems to get better.

A lot of times, I feel I should give you more. So much more. For all that you have given me, the thousand and one times you really are always there for me. Haha. But you never need me to be there for you. And somehow, the best thing I can do for you is to be happy.

Haha. I promise I won't let you worry. I promise you that when you ask "How are you?", I'll tell you I'm very happy with my life and it will be the truth. I promise you I'll keep my promises. Haha. I don't have to promise to always be there for you, or to listen to you whenever you wanna talk. You know I will.

It seems so natural for us isn't it? The kind of "be there and listen" thing between friends.

Haha. I also don't know how to end this entry. Whatever la. Maybe it's a show of our never-ending friendship that a full-stop cannot deny. Haha. Friends to the end. (Even though there's no end.)

Our puzzle!

Yay! Our holiday puzzle is complete!! Hahaha. It's soooo cute! And Minghui is soooo tired after doing it. (She slept at 6am, woke up at 10am). BUT she said it wasn't because of the puzzle.

Ok. Minghui, I believe you. On the account that you are holding my photos for the SWOC website. Hehe.

And.... here's our puzzle!!

It's suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper cute! Argh. I feel like tickling them. Minghui liked the puzzle because 1. They're cute dogs and 2. She thinks the middle doggy looks like her. (Both have eye bags)

Haha. But I like the doggy on the right! It's got big eyes! And very playful. And very nice, curly fur.

This gets exciting..

I realised I should continue defending myself, and I'll start to see more angry comments about my blog. Hahaha. The fun begins!

Ok. Firstly, if Zhan Lun ever found my blog, Miss Leow is so sorry. I misread your goodwill friendster testimonial. Haha. Read too quickly. Didn't realise your happy christmas is not merry christmas. So sorry la.

Anyway, let's move on to the different names who seem really unhappy that I'm happy with my life. Guy says I am delusional because I want people to feel that way if they read my blog. Well, I said you're WRONG. And you went on to say my vocabulary is limited, and that you claim that I thought I was smart pinpointing him out.

Aiyo.. All wrong la. So ma lu.. you. I don't want people to feel pity for me after they read about how I think my dad isn't giving enough pocket money, nor would I want them to feel angry (at me or with me) because of what I said. This blog was created, never meant to be found. But I was dumb enough to use blogspot, and it spread like no one else's business. Maybe not in your world, but in mine.

My blog is my blog. What is said here, stays here. My life is a different thing. I can choose to bring my life in here, but what happens here does not go out. So I won't want people to have those feelings, neither would I want to beg for it. It stays here, man. People treat me as they do not know the contents of the blog. And they do.

Yeah well, my vocab is probably limited. I'm not any spelling bee whiz you know. But if I can still evoke emotions from you despite a narrow range of words, the writing has to be good somehow. And I didn't think I was smart for pinpointing him. For what?! I just believe that whatever you say, you should have the courage to put down your name wat.. So cowardly.. put down "guy", "stalker".. So when I thought you were my student, I put down your name for you lor. Just so sorry to my student that I misread his message. And I'm not too cowardly to admit I've made a mistake!

Ok, and stalker. Haha. Silly name. I didn't interrogate my student la. And you sound more ignorant than guy. Though you still sound like you debating yourself using two different names. You can claim that there are many out there willing to take the place of guy, and I can say that everyone you can find to put their name in the cbox, is just another name used by you. No proof man! Sad people..

Oh hey lost, I never wanted to be your model, or anyone's model per se. This blog is a place for me to shout out what I want, to no one in particular. Not for me to lead my life for other people to see.. So you shouldn't say that I am nothing you want to be after looking at my life through the blog. Very sad thing to do, you know. Because firstly, you really don't know how I am like in real life, my blog is not a true reflection of it, and secondly, you should lead your own life man. Why follow other people? And of course, how much of me do you understand after reading the blog?

p.s. After this post, I think people will start saying that I'm typing nonsense, I don't understand what I'm/they are saying. Haha. Bring it on people! Let the fun begin!!

A peek into a SWOC meeting

I know you wanna know. I know you SOOO wanna know. What goes on behind the door in the JCRC room in a SWOC meeting.

It's so exciting isn't it? 13 freshies locked inside a room with a director, and despite the full transparency of the room, you still do not know what goes on in there.

Do you wanna know? I can tell you.. (If you get me the Nokia N73 Music edition)

So.. read on! If you have the sincerity.

We had a 2-hour-turned-3.5-hour meeting on Friday, 22nd December. (I wanted to say yesterday, but I realised it's already 12.55 am, hence it's now officially Sunday.) And it's one of the best 3-hour meetings I've ever had. It felt nothing like 3.5-hours at all.

It was SUPER funny!

We had seven items on our agenda, and we were all expecting a long meeting already. BUT no one expected such a funny meeting. It was so funny, we had to control our laughter so that we wouldn't accidentally pee in our pants because we drank too much water and needed the toilet urgently but didn't want to miss out on anything.

It was only until a while later when (hero) Edward finally said he needed the toilet that we all realised 4 out of the 5 girls needed the loo, and the rest of the guys were just putting their army training into good use.

It was quite a good meeting actually. We still managed to get some work done, amid all the time we died laughing and resurrecting repeatedly.

(personal jokes will now take centre stage)
We managed to seriously talk about what is Sheares Hall to us, often going seriously back to the serious question "So what is Sheares Hall?" and people just died la. Hao Jie just totally collapsed onto the floor shake-ing for oxygen.

There were some irrelevant topics as well. Like brush(!)es, shine and shimmers, and BLEACH! Yuan Bin even got into a role-playing mood and started acting like Al (or however you spell it). And we came to an agreement that the male characters in Bleach (actually all anime for that matter) are very shuai (帅 not 衰).

And there was a lot of love in the meeting. Zaihao cooked tang yuan for all of us! And Hao Jie bought REALLY pretty cupcakes for everyone. It was sooooooooo pretty, it took us around 15 minutes to finally take a cupcake instead of photos. And Yuan Bin and Shixiu gave everyone chocolates with a very nice card design that they drew till 6 am in the morning.

couldn't get the cupcake to face the front, and me to look correct next to it.

A whole box of loveliness

tangyuan break

Till then! MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Oh. And you've read the whole entry. Please remember the Nokia N73 Music Edition for my birthday.

And the rain comes fallin' fallin'

Whoa rain! My goodness. It's like totally one whole day, one whole night, and one whole morning. Even my non-aircon hostel room has turned air-con room. Couldn't believe when I woke up. Soo cold, you can keep your milk refrigerated on my table!

And it must rain just when I'm moving in. First trip to hall, rain. Trip back home for dinner, rain. Trip back to hall for the night, still rain (I was even walking in ankle deep water and trying to keep my slippers from coming off for the fourth time!). Next day, (it didn't even stop throughout the night) when I went home, RAIN. This one was damn incredible.

At the stretch of road at MacRitchie reservoir, it was FLOODED. Up to 90 cm deep. When the bus went down. Oh my goodness. How I wish the windows were ceiling-to-floor ones. I could have seen the water washing up against the bus la! And I was so stunned, I didn't even take photographs!

It was super amazing. The waves created by the bus were just like those at Sentosa when you're more than knee deep in the water, washing up to your waist at times. The people standing in the rain (workers and policemen) were either enjoying their time as heroes in the rain, or have found the perfect look to return those gaping stares from people in the vehicles.

When I went back to hall from home, STILL rain. But never mind! This time I was happy. Cos I was determined to take the a video of the little ride semi-underwater. But alas! The bus took a detour at the last minute. Bleah.

And I could only take pictures of the immense traffic jam along the detour.

I wonder what happens to those people waiting at the bus stops that the buses skipped though.. Hai.. poor things.. And they cannot call for cabs, since taxis won't really want to go there either..

THE Birthday Wish List

Here's my first annual Birthday Wish List! (first annual because this is the first time I'm doing this)

1. Nokia N73 Music Edition
pink if possible, but any colour is fine, as long as it's not all silver/grey
make sure the 1 GB memory card is there
and make sure it's the music edition
check it out if you're unsure.. http://www.nokia.com/nseries/index.html#product,n73_me

2. If a new handphone is all but possible, then a 1GB miniSD card will do
or (sigh!) a 128MB miniSD card

3. Piano score for "You Can't Say" from the Korean drama All About Eve
The last time I checked, the book with that music score is out of publication. So.. good luck!

4. Piano score for JJ's "冻结" and "一千年以后"
I've been hunting for them (with my spear and all) for a looooong time already.. Now I pass the responsibility to you. Ha!

5. Haha. I wanted to put down those downloadable games from the internet. Then I realised I
can grow tired of them quite easily as well.. So no point!

6. Oh! New shoes will be nice.. That one I'm easy. Just as long as IT LOOKS NICE!
I'm talking about track shoes by the way.. But if you want to give me other kinds of going-out shoes, I'm cool too.

7. Hm.. I'll fill in the rest later. When I think of more. Hehe.



So.. SAVE UP EVERYONE! It's still a while before April swings by!!

A message for my dear C.K.

*************************************************

Thought of showing a photo of my tummy fats. But thought better of it. (Ok, heave your sigh of relief..)



*************************************************



CK! Haiyo CK!!! I know my pimples are coming when they're coming out.. but you don't have to point them out to me EVERYTIME THEY COME OUT!! Oi! Very observant is it?? You think I don't know meh?? Arh bsh! Next time I have another pimple (choi!), DON'T bring it up! Or else.. I'll pull out your leg hair by hand! Bleah.


p.s. I was playing virtual villagers downloaded from bluemountain.com.. Usually the downloaded games could exceed the time limit and let us play as long as we want just as long as we don't exit the game. Tamade! All I did was to turn off the full screen and I CAN'T PLAY ANYMORE! sob..!

Oh well..

Ok.. Never mind the earlier complaints and what not. Yesterday my dad scolded my brother for withdrawing too much and not being able to account for it. Ok ok.. I know he lent some money to Mercy, and my mum, but oh well, he still spent unneccesarily (more unneccessarily than me) with a significant portion of it.

Argh!

Sometimes, I so totally feel that my parents never have the same expectations of my brother as they have of me.

I'm not allowed to be selfish, but he fucking is.

I'm not allowed to waste food, spend unneccessarily (like getting a drink during lunch!), have any extra luxuries (like buying something that costs $2.50 for lunch instead of $2!) BUT HE FUCKING CAN!!

I'm so fucking damn pissed now!

Hello! You've got TWO kids here!! Which one did you forget??

Screw that jackass brother!

From an entry with nothing to write

I'm finally at home! (Okok. I'm finally SPENDING TIME at home.) But I don't know what to write! Haha. Ok.. Let's see..

Ex-SWOC Treat's finally over. No more 12 - 2 am (total madness!) cheering and anthem sessions.

Done with the many socks, successfully distributed.

Socks socks socks!!

And Gilyn got ponded on her birthday. Along with Caroline as a side dish.

And the rest of us as dessert.

Where's Kim Seng??

With an additional Britney on the side

Argh. I so totally have a gut feeling it'll be my turn on my birthday. I JUST HOPE I won't get a triple ponding (SWOC, Block C and X-Men!). Just one from SWOC is enough. And pray I don't get my period on my birthday!!

Freedom!!

*****************************************************
Is Kim Yee Haun Korean?? I have been tricked by the entire level 6! Samson said he's from science and Yee Huan says he is Korean!! Bleah. 김 이 한 !

*****************************************************

Exams are finally over! And the world is finally big again! Haha. Everything I want to do all at once! Heh. One month to try it all out. Let's go!!
