the unexpected words

today we got back our prelim results.
somehow i didn't have faith in myself that i would pass.
i sat there almost freaking out.
but however, i did improve.
i still will not be able to get into a jc
but by God's grace, i improved a lot.
i felt that during the whole exam,
someone was there with me,
but i thought it was a hallucination.
now, i believe.
my Heavenly Daddy, he never left my side.
although sometimes i feel he isn't there,
but i know that he's always there.
He guided me through this exam.
thank you Heavenly Daddy for your endless guidance!
ade>> we go MI together ok?
i also begin to believe
that although we feel like we hate the teachers,
they are actually always there for us.
mrs lim: i always thought she didn't care, but she never gave up on me and she had faith that i would make it. and i have. she constantly reminded me to study for chemistry and tell me she has faith in me.
mr ling: haha. we always make him angry, and always take the fact that he doesn't lose his temper to our own advantage, but being my study camp mentor, he always checked on my grades and kept reminding me that all is not lost and to keep working hard.
mrs chong: that little talk she had with most of us, actually helped me a lot. she may put her family first, but she does care. and she reminded me that if i was in trouble and stressed, i should turn to God. and that's wad i do. and it sure helps a lot!
haha. i'm just saying this.. majority of you won't agree with me.
but seriously that's how i feel.
the teachers do help a lot.
though i still think the education system in Singapore is terrible

every heart represents a whole lot of love, let love flow out from everyone of us


many people will walk in and out of your life,
but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.
to handle yourself, use your head.
to handle others, use your heart.

rantings/-

i'm beginning to realise that being a boy in this family is so much better.. i've never seen my grandmother scolding my brother before all these 16 years i've been living with this family.. neither do i see my mom and dad showing him black and sour faces just because he's home half an hour later than expected.. ya, they give me the lamest excuse like "he's 18, you're not" but they never treated him like that when he was 16.. i was sec 1 and i can still remember clearly. it was like what khor khor wants, khor khor gets. no matther how expensive it is.. then they'll tell me "because khorkhor seldom buys clothes." but for goodness sake, he's clothes are like two to three times the cost of mine!! this is ultimate unfair treatment. i really wished i was a boy. since the age of 11, i understood how boys are always treated better than girls in this family.. sighhx. i mean even my grandparents are like that too!!

just so recently, i was scolded while frying an egg!!
my brother was frying an egg and my grandma put too much black sauce on the egg and my brother gave her a black face and she didnt' say anything. but all i said wad "mama, why you put so much?" and she goes on and on about how i have absolutely no respect for her and how i shouldn't be talking back to her and everything!! while i was frying my egg, she added extra oil (deliberate or accidental) and i said "stop! don't put so much!" she was telling me that i dunno how to cook and that you can't cook an egg with no oil and all that crapx. i can't stand it! am i so useless that i can't even cook an egg? gosh! manx. i hate staying in this house.. when i get treated like a free maid and a slave.. when they aren't home, i am expected to cook for my brother but shoudn't the older be looking after the younger? i don't blame my brother.. in fact i think he's one of the nicest to me in the whole family apart from my grandpa. sometimes i just wish to be left alone at home.. even if i have to study, i'd rather study than listen to all their nonsense and constant nagging. it makes me angry, it makes me sad, it makes me feel useless and hopeless..

and besides, which parents you know will leave their children to study and fend for themselves in the time of exams and prelims while they happily go overseas for a holiday? they never did that to khor khor.. they always went "no, matthew's having his exams, we shouldn't go anywhere." and now that my exams are going to end at the end of the year, they won't even give me a nice holiday because khor's school term starts early.. and worse "treat it like your saving up for your china trip" hello!! i'm not going there for fun.. my mum volunteered me to join miss see in missions at the end of the year.. and i might be there for a few months if i don't make it into jc.. i don't mind going, in fact i'd love to! but she's obviously being biased. sighhx. i'm terribly annoyed. there's never one day that's complete without them fighting with me..

and my grandmother gave me hell today.. i always did so badly for my a math paper 2 and she still went on and on at the fact that i don't study and keeps comparing me with other people.. if you like their grand children so much, go have them as your grand children!! and wad, compares me to penny! damn! i mean she's smart nothing i can do about the fact that i was born with a higher EQ than IQ!! and fought with me over a plate of spaghetti that i was heating up.. and over the tv channel i was watching.. and even over the food i ate.. all i said was "it's so oily" *BAM* i get this argument straight.. can't anything get any better?

and it's not only at home that i get treated like this.. my extended family treats me the same, thus i stopped going for family gathering since last year.. everytime my cousins, neices or nephews cry, i get all the blame.. just being i happen to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.. i can just walk pass and my cousin will start scolding me for not looking after her kid.. since i'm her cousin and not her niece, i'd tell her "they're your kids, why blame me?" and she'll scold me on and on and if i walk away, she'll call me rude!! and her mom isn't much better.. like at the dining table, i'm expect to wait until all the uncles ATTACK and EAT UP all the food before i can start eating.. if not miss high up and proud lady will say "little children should respect parents are let them eat first!" wahh.. i can't stand it!! and when i laugh and eat, she'll always have something to say.. does she expect me to eat one grain at a time? and i do not laugh like her, with her mouth wide open and her laughter can bring down the whole house.. i just can't stand it.. i don't wanna be in the low family!!

anybody wanna adopt me into their family?
i'll be forever grateful!
i promise i'll be good..


i feel like i'm being controlled.
like i'm a robot.
without a life, without heart.
no one cares about how i feel.
to them, i'm just a shadow in this room.
hiding to avoid.
blending into the dark, gloomy world.
a prisoner of my own household.
when will they stop being such a control freak?

moondance


i feel like dancing on the moon

don't ask me why i feel like dancing on the moon.
i just feel like it! in fact sometimes i feel like dancing among the stars.
i'm not happy, i'm not sad. i just feel like dancing.
maybe 'cos i'm angry.
my mom is getting on my nerves.
she keeps suspecting me..
"sending secret messages?"
"if you don't want to talk to me tell me"
oh my goodness, she's so &^%$#$%!^&* annoying
i can't take it..

longest day!!

firstly, had the talk by acjc
and i begin to give up my hopes on going there.
i mean 9 points? hello?

fine.. longest day started.. haha..
we had to play this really violent game
b4 against a4..
it's quite funny.. we are supposed to bounce from one chair to the one next to it
and continue bouncing until one member from each team meets.
play scissors paper stone and the winner continues to bounce until the other side.
haha.. yeah.. quite violent lahz.. chairs broke. thank goodness no bones broke
yup. so after that.. we proceeded to the primary basketball court
so play captain's ball brocolli, cabbage, grapes and tomato.
haha.. played captain's ball but instead of using a ball,
we used vegetables.. my hands stink!! eww..
yeahh.. went back to the quadrangle and play some running game..
very very lame.. then we had jacob's ladder.. 2½ classes were playing.
the length we had to run was intimidating..
and the fact that we might step on other people made it scary..
sorrie nicky!! wait before i forget!

happy belated birthday ian!!


yeahh.. so we had to play some game.. with mathematics..
ahha.. surprise the class who scares their math teacher because of our grades are actually the ones who played the best in this game!! haha.. 4b4.. sigh.. we rock in maths!!
went back to class and practiced for the drama/mini musical! ahha.
jenny!! penny dressed up like a boy! my gosh..she looked just like a boy.. kimberly got a pic of her.. i got a pic of her.. jess got a pic of her!! haha. all of us got a pic of her/him! haha.
the "concert" was good.. very entertaining and touching. felt like crying manz.
my home for 10 years!!! i'm leaving in like 2 months.. sighhx. i'm gonna miss my baby blue, beige and baby pink school.. =(
went home after that.. and whoo.. was i tired.. yawns

end of career fair

today was the last and final day of career fair..
temasek, ngee ann and singapore poly came over and talked to us about their pretty school..
actually i don't mind temasek law apart from the distance.
and ngee ann, but mass comm there is really hard to get in..
so i was thinking of doing media and communication in singapore poly..
media and communication is like mass comm plus management technology or something..
so it's like learning more stuff than just plain mass comm..
i dunno wad i wanna do..
haha.. then ade and i were thinking of going to pjc and help her sister complete something that she would not be able to complete herself.
we wanna start a cheerleading squad there! haha. mind you, we don't have to be cheerleaders. we just watch people fall, split, trip etc. yes we're evil.
yeahh! so many places and interesting things to do.. but i only can choose one..
if i go jc, i'd probably take, literature, econs and geog/math/chem (see which one i do better at)
and i finally realised that i have an interest in chemistry! i dunno why the sudden interest
hey! it's still an interest!!

oh there are rumours that e math is going to be moderated UP!
means that even 50% isn't a pass.. did that many people do well?
chemistry got no moderation because even though we found it difficult,
mrs lim said it was do-able and no moderation was needed!
mrs chong said that moderation was VERY NECCESSARY!
it's good we get moderation but it means so many people didn't do well.
sighhx. i can only pray and hope for the best! yup.. tatax. i'm tired

sentosa // career fair!!

yesterday i had such a weird day..
so i went home and konked out.. i was tired..

yesterday was the last day of the examinations!!
yay!! christine tried to have a surprise party for jojo..
haha. hard to keep it a secret!
christine, jojo, kim, gillian, nicky, jess, ky, bao, penny, bryna and me!!
haha.. went to sentosa actually because i wanted a tan..
but it had to rain. and pour.
jess and i started to be retarded and took 16 (around there) pictures of ourselves under a shelter!
haha the rain turned to drizzle.. so we went swimming!
kinda met weirdos there.. like some guys with funny coloured hair
who cannot stop annoying us.
asked penny to ignore them, but noooo.. she just won't listen to us..
hmm.. so it was kinda getting irritating.. asking me stupid questions.
like "were you the one in the red shirt?"
and "my friend wants you number."
or "zuo ge peng you ba? hao ren huai ren wo dou zuo!"
idiots. i told them to call the police station 'cos i stay there. 999
so we got annoyed and swam to the other side..
then i told jess that perpendicular distance was always the shortest distance.

happy belated birthday to jess!!

thanks chris for the effort put in the sentosa thingie
and the lovely lovely delicious chocolate brownie!!

yup! so after that.. all took the bus back to departure centre..
while i wandered around.. penny sat at delifrance.

thanks penny for you patience!!

penny told me when i came back that lucky i wasn't around because the weirdos left while i was away.. haa..
fine. we made our way to penny's mom's office to drop stuff there =)
walked to far east and bought similar shirts (not congruent mind you)
same colour and wore it in attempt to confuse others..
haha.. bought tickets for dodgeball, looking retarded..
met winston and went off for dinner.. haha.. dinner was er.. a lot.
ate as much as we could in 20 mins and ran off to watch the movie.
dodgeball is a very painful show to watch.. we were like
ouch.. *shuts eyes* through the whole movie or so.. haha..
took a bus back! 171!! and konked out on the bed! haha
we had career fair in school today.. had to dress as if we were going for an interview.
however, i dressed like i was going to church. no one said anything. so fine..
i was so sleepy and bored that i kinda fell asleep =X
and the law was fun! i dun wanna be a criminal laywer.
but i wanna go to court though! wanna be a judge..
they earn so much a year.. about $800,000 so i was told!
haha.. money face! haha. ya.. but law is seriously interesting ok?
the occupational therepist was a waste of my time though.
i dont' mind being one.. but i don't even haf the requirements!
i need biology! haha. but i dun regret dropping it though.
yeah.. so now at least i noe wad to do just before an interview..
make up apparently is neccessary/
yeah.. so brought everything which i left at nicky's house at home..
and yeah! had 9 sticks of cheesesticks for lunch! fatty deposit manz..

BIG YAWNS!!

think i'm gonna start getting sick of my tuition teacher.
i've been seeing him 3 days straight everyday.
and today i just finished tuition and he's coming again tonight.
why do we have to have all e and a math papers from monday to thursday?
it's official i hate e math as well has a math.
i thought today's paper was tough! real hard. but everyone else thought it was ok.
sherilyn thought it was rather easy, ade thought it was alright.. what am i to do?
sighhx. i feel so st*p*d! go figure. sighh.
boohoo. got the last math paper tomorrow. now that's something to rejoice about!
after that still got lit, chinese and geog.
and miss yeong mun yan doesn't have to go to school from tomorrow all the way until wednesday!!

ooh miss kek was telling us something about some career thingie..
haha.. sounds interesting. i took "law" and "career therepist" (or something like that) course.
i dunno how it's gonna go.. but i wanted to do mass comm.. but got so many people already and we can onli join two. so yeah! i decided to do something serious.
haha.. now that's a change.
well i guess that
changes is a very important ingredient in life.
imagine me being happy and hyper all the time. gosh i'd be dead by now.
all you people would have shot me dead.
i saw secondary 4 longest day on the timetable for post exam schedule
and i just felt like crying already. my home for 10 years!!

oh. a math was strangely do-able.
haha. but usually when i feel it's do-able, i fail.
oh wellz. but yeah!
chem paper was very interesting.
paper one was tougher than paper two, so i thought.
but it's the same case as my a math lahz.
oops! oh yes, interesting and exciting things happened today.
there was a blackout during the chem paper 2!!
half black out lahz.. haha.. yep. but i was like playing with my pen.
and the lights when off.. so exciting.
and it started to rain and all.. speaking of eerie atmosphere.
and my tumy was giving me troubles again. sighh. painful.
each paper today, it started to ache once, or twice.
bahz. stupid tummy.
oh i forgot to tell you peeps about the scary encounter during my e math paper one.
i heard my name being called seven times by this lady but everytime i turn around, no one.
i was absolutely freaked out manz..
speaking of scary, miss bong was quite scary today.
she went around the whole hall checking on people's socks!!
thank goodness she didn't check hair. if not i would be caught for both!!
illegal hair and socks.
but honestly, it was pretty distracting when she did that.
i was thinking how to solve this question and "sarah, pull up your socks"

the attack of the killer papers

prelims continued today.
yawns. i'm tired. just got home.
crapz.. the e math paper, wasn't difficult but very tricky.
you needa think a lot even though it's just the basics.
sighh.. wad am i to do? e math?!
i was really getting bored of doing the math paper halfway.
it's like i needa think so much!! well. it's over. wad's done is done!
next had geog.. killer paper..
behold the attack of the killer papers!
it was actually easier than the mid-years..
but the stupid diagrams are so confusing.. and distracting.
could have done an easy question but got scared due to the diagram
and panicked due to the limited time.
and i wanted to do one on "uniquely singapore" because it's so general knowledge and common sense BUT the part before that part was like "uh.. right."
well, it's O-V-E-R!
8 papers more to go dearies! (for some 10?)
* reminder! *
. 14/9 - a math 1, chem 1 & 2
. 15/9 - e math 2 (bio 1 & 2 too)
. 16/9 - a math 2, lit elect. / full lit
. 17/9 - NO SCHOOL!
. 20/9 - chinese 2
. 21/9 - geog 1

and after that.. it's over.. for then.. then it's the Os again!
i inted to take like a few days off rest.. just before i get back to books after my prelims.
like i wanna go to sentosa, or maybe just go watch a play/musical at the esplanade?
how about just bumming around.. or maybe i'll go do some volunteer work? hmm..
i dunno wad i'm gonna do.. all i know is i'm gonna do something relaxing!!

obstacles //over

happy 17th birthday linus!!

i tried. i really tried. it was too painful. it hurt too much.
i just couldn't let go.
was i right to listen to my heart?
only time will tell..
(keepable) promises were made.
thoughts were exchanged.
feelings were let loose.
explanations were given.
changes have to be made.
time will heal all wounds.
patience, love, care, understanding, faith, trust, being open.
i realised that it's all about listening and being understanding.
aggression gets you no where.
talking back gets you further.
listen and understand.


i need:
. guidance
. a compassionate, loving and forgiving heart
. to being less easily angered
. to stop assuming / jumping into conclusions
. to be more independent
. love and care.

Father Help Me.

thank yous*
Heavenly Daddy >> for endless guidance, comfort and love.. for pulling me through this tough time.. helping me back on track. =D and for putting obstacles in my life to make me stronger!
ade >> thank you for your endless prayers, comfort and care.. all the encouragement and smiles.
sherilyn >> thanks for the offer in help and advice =)
mitchy >> thank you for the advice and comfort. the encouragements too.. always reminding me to look on the brighter side.

of wishes .

"The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love
and be loved in return."

- moulin rouge-


*i only wished i was able to learn something like that.


the banging in my head.
who was banging? the thought? or the memory?
the pain is unbearable.


i had math tuition today.
was kinda demoralised at the river valley high paper.
mr chan says "it's a tough paper"
but still, it was utterly demoralising.
after tuition i had my daily soul searching of stoning.
i really don't know what am i to do about everything.
take it step by step like little jojo says i guess.
but for now. study comes first. i'll try.
it's gonna be hard. but i don't have a choice.
get out of my head for now you problem.
text of the geog textbook, i pray thee enter the hollow head.
yes. sighh.. self-confidence where are you?
where has the once self-confident sarah gone?
every goal, target that used to seem so near,
now seems too far.

life is ever so meaningless

whyy is my life ever so terrible.
i admit, i dont hate myself, i hate my life.
mom, dad, brother gone.
i'm left in this house of torture all alone.
well my gramps are alright..
but i mean connie..
seeing me feeling sad, sad, troubled,
makes her feel very happy.
she's some sort of sadist.
why? "i like to disturb you when you're angry"
whyy? i feel terrible enough.
maybe i should just leave home, singapore, the world.
it's getting so freaking meaningless.

i hate to love

Love can be a many splendid thing
can't deny the joy it brings....

what truth there is in the song.. love CAN be a many splendid thing.. but i soon begin to realise all good things have an ending somewhere.. especially in love, unless you marry the person. hah. well, you can stay with the person and endure all the hurt and pain (sometimes misery) that comes with it.. a relationship full of lies and hurt.. i being to realised that there are to me.. 2 kinds of guys in the world.. the ones that let their emotion affect how they treat you.. and the one that will not use you as their "punching bag".

the trouble with love is
it can tear you up inside
make your heart believe a lie
it's stronger than your pride
the trouble with love is
it doesn't care how fast you fall
and you can't refuse the call
see you've got no say at all

but then again, love is troublesome. it can be sweet. it can make you feel good. it can make you feel like crap. it can definitely make your feel inferior. it can make you feel uncared for. it can make you feel unloved too. it can make you feel like you're in a prison. it can make you feel stupid. and frequently wonder "why are we even together"

yes i don't care, call me childish, ask me to change for you sake. i will. but do not make me stay away from friends who are always there for me just because they are not female. i'm so confused. yes love can make you very comfused too. i just want to take a step out and leave, but i can't. not now. why do you always have to make me cry, break my heart, and expect me to pretend nothing happens. you can scold me, shout at me using any language you want, hit me, whack me, beat me, slap me, i don't care. but DO NOT scold my friends, my church, my Heavenly Father. he didn't make me into this psycho crap, you did! you told me i could be who i am in front of you since you'd want to be the first. but what happens if i do? you hate me. i told you, i warned you. you can't accept me for who i am. no one can. maybe few. but you aren't one of them. everytime you tell me to go and sleep and everything will be alright, they usually are. but these few days, nothing seems so be alright. why do you have have to do this to me before my prelims? why? you hate me that much that you have to have to have to do this just before my prelims, so i'd flunk and i'd see that gloating smile on your face. shiat, you made me like this. but why can't i forget you? why can't i just let you go? how did i fall in love with you?

okie. sorrie about that.. i needed to let steam out.

happy 15th birthday to you greg!
happy 22nd birthday to you foo min!

ade>> thank you for always being there to talk through things with me.. and be such a nice friend, always being there for me.
winston>> thank you for enduring all my crap, all my problems and always listening.. and sorry i had to shorten your sleeping hours.

i love literature!

for my little darlings that were too lazy to wake up for lit remedial today:

Act 5 Scene 4 is very important.
1. it shows a change in King's opinion of John
2. also shows changes in King's opion of Prince Hal.

quotes to remember for this scene:
"shallow scratch" (line 10)
- Prince was severely injured but he only describe it as a "shallow scratch" (this shows that the Prince is selfless, noble and sacrificial)
"Thou hast redeemed thy lost opinion" (line 47)
- (shows trust) King meant that Prince has redeemed himself at last [change of opinion]

after Prince kills Hotspur:
the last lines Hotspur said to Prince..
he was talking about honour.
honour has double meaning--
1. killing the Prince, bring him honour
2. honours received will be gone (all his medals/badges)

Prince respects Hotspur and pays tribute to him after death.

Act 5 Scene 5

(line 14) King says: Bear Worcester to death, and Vernon too.
King Henry wants them executed because:
1. they are very proud
2. they are defiant and unrepentent
3. they are liars. (because of their lies, innocent lives were lost)

(line 25 onwards)
Prince took Douglas from the King and gave the responsibility to Lord of Lancester (John).
Prince let him go because:
1. Prince found Douglas brave
2. allowed his brother to be respected at such a young age.

(line 39-41) - shows close Father-son relationship between Prince and King.
"Rebellion in this land shall lose his sway -> an irony.

okie.. that's all you missed.. well all the important parts that you missedl ahz.. hmm
actually go to the back of character study... and study from there.. the different characteristics of each character. ok? you should be doing fine..
muackssss.. rahrah put in effort in doing this.. so please study hard ok?

*************
okie.. back to the normal blogging.. today went for lit remedial and ended early..
so i went down to pay my phonebill.. gosh i feel broke.. haha..
and went to kap with jess to ease our growling stomachs..
and after that went home.. no went to bukit panjang plaza in search of wrapping paper..
met pjc seniors there.. haha. ex mg.. haha.. crystal and jun.. ahah.
so fun.. walked around with them for quite some while..
wnet looking for stationery and walking around.. i met ida.. haha..
wat a reunion.. it's good to go shopping once in a while.. i feel like going to pjc now.
okie after that i went home. and took a little nap before going for counselling..

that's all i guess. hhaa.. did the lit thingie and yeah! haha.. see ya!!!

ahhh... thank you mong!

go see it here!!!

oh boy.
i think i've got the world's sweetest, cutest and caring friends ever!!
i love you all!!!

so back to the serious stuff.
today's sermon was really really good.
pastor did a really really good job in emphasizing the importance of having a prayerful life.
and he was also super funny.
haha.. seriously, all his animations and all..
and he sang and played the guitar today..
speaking of a prayerful life.
i think i needa get back to praying every day..
sometimes i give lame excuses like too tired.
no time. nothing to pray about.
but there are so many things i can actually pray about...
like thank God for everything He's done, for the people not as fortunate as us etc.
so many.
from today onwards, i shall start praying everyday.
talking to my Heavenly Daddy.
telling him EVERYTHING!
yeeeaaaaahhhhh!

broken plans? --

firstly, congratulation to louisa and mitchell on their new templates!
what's the world coming to.. first they get couple phones. and now this.



the perfection was lost.
i thought it rather unsual yet special.
till something cropped up again.
it's always the same.
time is precious to everyone.
nothing can be planned.
like chemistry,
when a more reactive substance is added,
the original gets displaced.
same goes for our everyday life.
if one thing more important comes along,
everything else gets cancelled. displaced.
the heart had torn
but hid it's sadness.
it doesn't blame, it never did.
all it wants is understanding,
of the feeling inside.



so yes. went for tuition as usual.
4 stupid hours.. and for goodness sake when it was one.
nelson said "go grab a bite and come back and continue doing"
i told him that i had to go. but where? home! (sweet home?)
so i left and one.
went down with wen xin to eat pretzels and octopus balls
drank some sugarcane drink and took the mrt home.
haha. such a long ride. thank goodness i got seats on the bus and on the mrt.
phew! reached home at about 3 and boy was i tired.
so i kinda konked out (undeliberately) at around 4 until 5.
yup.. i feel so sian of studying.
but it's all part of growing up in singapore.
nonetheless... I LOVE SINGAPORE!
I LOVE YOU ALL! =)

a bit of everything

had ss and english paper.
english was a killer. well tps found it ok! so wad's surprising.
stupid girl gets a1 all the time! boof.
ss was ok lahz. but the way they asked the questions was weird
usually they would have 13 marks for like 5 factors.
now for 13 marks, they give you one point and we elaborate.
so ridiculous right? sighh. i dunno. i gave up my dreams of being a vjc student
but just today we got the calendar thingie and i feel like going there again.
but it's highly impossible. sighh. byebye vjc.
i'd be really happie if i could just get into acjc (hopefully) or pjc.

*NOTE:
if you want your kid to be groomed into a beauty free of charge, call her adeline.
haha. yes ade, do you remember what you told me about your future god-daughter?
that kinda reminded me. haha. pek wants 5 kids!!!!
girl . boy . girl . girl . boy .
i think i'm high and a little baby crazy now.. been surrounded by too many adorable little babies. aww. i think they're so cutee!! so if i do have my 30 kids.. haha. jessica, nicky and ade and god mommies. haha. yes i think i'm really mad. so shoot me. i want my bag!!! do i get it? we'll see! woohoo!

i suddenly think that the baby thing was sorta out of point.
haha. my baby must have my stupid glow too. but NO PURPLE MOLE!
so bikini baby, give it up! =) hehe.

parents are leaving with brother for china early tomorrow.
FREEDOM REIGN! haha. well sorta freedom. still stuck at home due to the crappy prelims.
and i have to feed my brother's fishes for him. such a waste of my time.
and i have to feed them with frozen blood worms. ahhhhhh.
so the house belongs to me, connie and my gramps.
but gramps will be out most of the time. so it's me and connie. muahaha.. all the lovely food i get to eat when they're not around. so exciting. whee! no more nagging for a little while. no brother bothering me in the middle of the night. and i get a goodnight rest. one problem though. i have to go to bishan 2 consecutive weeks alone. and back alone. boof. it's gonna be so boring. yawns. the pros and cons. lucky she didn't cut my allowance AGAIN this month. phew. yep. so i'm gonna take my nap to reduce pimples. haha.

*ANOTHER NOTE:
sufficient sleep reduces the breakout of pimples. haha. so i figured.

the cuteness of babies!

*squeals*
haha. baby ling (mr ling's baby!) is so cute!
she's so chubby!
yes and as kimberly would say i'm psychotic.
but i turn all euphoric and all when i see cute babies.
she has such pokable cheeks! hehe..
oh manz.. and the first daughter got cuter from last year..
BUT baby ling is soooooo cute!!! ahhh...
haha. mrs ling asked if we wanted to carry her
but i was afraid i would drop her.. hehe.
but seriously, she's very cute! haha.
all wrapped up in cloth and wearing little baby clothes. awww.

so anyway. i think my chem reading was kinda off by 0.1 from the normal people's one. haha.. the average was like 20.1 but i got 20.2.. at least i get marks for consistency! so far.. the exams were very demoralising.. but oh wellz.. it's mgs' prelims manz.. they will never let us off! so i hear from the seniors.. well at least the B band seniors! phew. aiyoo.. tomorrow got social studies. i hate that subject manz. write until hand pain, still score so low. i guess it isn't the quality not the quantity right? haha.. yep.. so i think i should just go and study now before i flunk another subject. yeah. soo ALL THE BEST FOR SOCIAL STUDIES AND ENGLISH TOMORROW!!!

teachers' day!

happy teachers' day!!!

yesterday was probably the best teachers' day celebration i'd ever had in mgs all these 10 years.. sighh. it was actually very fun. ahhax. sam, joh and carol dressed up in this yellow thingie with cute little hats.. dunno what they were but they kinda looked like bob the builder. haha. and we had bikini baby (or kim) and co. mummifying themselves and wanted to mummify me too. but i told them "don't mummify me, i'm not really to be a parent yet!" (go ahead bash me up) haha.. all the toilet paper from both gents were taken by our class..it was so super fun. ade, jess and i went to the auditorium first to get good seats. and when bikini baby and co. came it.. haha.. they looks so super funny wrapped up in toilet paper.. haha. boy oh boy.. sherlyn came with some big nose and a moustache. haha. and bikini baby's legs were dropping off? due to the lousy mummification and decomposition of the past 1000 years i guess. haha. oh and we saw 3 "greek goddes" oh my gosh.. they're costume was soooo cool. they seriously looked like they were from julius caesar's (sorrie if i spelt his name wrongly) time! coolio. haha. yes. so had lotsa songs and the mcs were super funny. ahhh. i love mgs! haha. so we watched the tribut tape and all.. and a4's one was really good. i admit. and a3 was super funny. they did the "guess the teacher contest" and they acted as miss teo and mr ling. haha.. so cute. so yes. it was time to go home.

jess and our way down to bishan for tuition. haha. ate so much. i feel like a pig! by the way ade: i had mrs fields!!! ouch! haha. seriously ate like PIGS! and so we kinda walked around and slacked because there was no where to sit down and study so we just decided to walk around. haha. bought nothing. and i saw this esprit bag that i liked for the second time. first time i told my mom, she said buy it yourself. so now that september 18 is coming.. haha.. *hint hint* haha. walked around seiyu and looked at some stuff. and the ignorant and silly me decided to ask jess.. what's the difference (as in how do you tell) between underwear and a bikini and that silly girl asked me "why you want to buy one is it?" i was just asking. boof.so ate somemore and walked to tuition. haha. we didn't know anyone there. except one. some guy who can do the chem mcq paper in ½ hour and get onli 5 wrong. stupid cow. moo!

chubbybaby>> do you like her? oh tell me you don't. but if you do, i'd appreciate it if you tell me honestly that you do. i will understand. sorrie, i haven't been able to be there for you. the distance between us is almost unbearable.. it hurts like hell. i hate the Os, i hate the prelims. but i pray you wait for me. you still got so many promises you have yet to fulfill.. i know you'll keep them, it's just the timing. sighh. thank you for being willing to take up the risk and continue to be with me. it must be hard on you isn't it? but it'll be over soon. i promise.

so yes. i shall take my leave now. fair ye well my liege! take care. God Bless You! i love you!* huggles*
