and thus, my second and last sli ended.
it was quite a smooth one, i must say. the ics certainly did a great job! we gathered in the hall at 6.30 am, such a unbelievably early hour, and basically sat around until we went down for the fanfare. it got a bit messy when everyone started sitting at the wrong places, but at least we went up in the correct other. bowed, sat down speeches blah blah blah, then was the CONCERT xD
haha we rushed to the tamil room (running in court shoes= pain)and changed into our concert attire, like some strange stripping spree haha. then we rushed down, practised our dance to chase away all the butterflies and then suddenly it was OUR TURN D: luckily i didnt forget a large chunk of m moves alh. apparently we were awesome, but i dont know, it was all too fast! heh.
reception had terrrible food, im sorry but it was and im no picky eater. we were sitting quite close to the ri people, so after a while claire gave up eating and went to talk to yuda and company. and then later, she roped me in too, so basically we were talking to this large group of erm, people i dont know T.T other than yuda. haha. but it was ok lah i guess.
after that meijia and claire wanted to go and crash the ri school tour, so i tagged along and visited ramyia, who was their tour guide. yup.
and then we had two hours of mentorship workshop.
and now im very tired.
sleepy.
basically this week was largely sleepy and mugging. hist was ok i think, but it was a little tight time wise. and our math pt is coming along nicely. next mon is chem prac and orals so i must prepare and go and memorise all the QA stuff soon. plus ss essay on fri. then hcl on week 10 and then hurray! no more!
yup.

heres two good songs! play the mv but dont watch it cos the song is nice but not the mv.
first time i saw this mv i was like... WAH SO INTELLECTUAL! foreshadowing and all that T.T but it distracts you from the beauty of the song (SONG not lyrics. if you can figure out any... but the lyrics also not bad lah). not that im a big jay chou fan, but this song is just nice
this mv uses fake teardrops which spoilt the whole effect, so once again, play the song, dont watch. xD taylor swift rocks! but this song may be slightly overplayed. >< but its catchy! and taylor swift is pretyyyy

quick update on this busy week. pls forgive if i sound disorientated.
mon: - burnt my thumb during chem again! cant believe it. IM NEVER GOING NEAR A BUNSEN BURNER AGAIN. right after i burnt two fingers on friday too T.T (its swelled down by now, but it was real pain on mon). - dance prac after the school. our dance very hardddddd D: - went to swensens for dinner with my family, since my dad left on thurs. i had steak! <33> 1 bed) its super cool, cos they are all in these rooms without doors. and they're really old men. so we approach them, introduce ourselves as volunteers and ask if they would like to join the people downstairs for the performance. we had this really nice guy who did all the asking and let us push xD. so i got all his credit! heehee. i pushed two old men. my second patient was this really nice talkative guy :) by then my feet were dying, but when i saw all these patients who couldnt walk even if they wanted to, i was like "I LOVE MY FEET." although that only lasted until they started to go sore again T.T yup. so we pushed them to the courtyard, gave them their goodie bags and then went up for more patients. then we stood through the whole show (the only good performance was this magician, like we stood in a row as whispered-not-so-softly-but-very-excitedly on HOW HE DID IT! O: yeah hahahaha.) then we wheeled them back. by the time we could sit and eat dinner, it was like 8 plus. got home at 9 and then showered and did some bio hw. freaking TIREDDDD after the wholeee day!!! did more exercise then i would have if i actually went for trg. but yeah, my feet DIED.
sat: - woke up at 6.30 T.T almost didnt want to, but got fieldtrip! went to school to drop off file to nora then headed with the rest of bio and hist ra to kent ridge park! we had this really nice guide who knew like every plant or something. mr lim and ms tan and ms lee with us. so we walked all the way from (SRY GOT DISTRACTED BY FLH N DISNEHY CHANNEL. DADONNGGGGG) nus to bukit chandu. i cry for my feet T.T yup, but it was real cool cos we saw super lot of things. like a praying mantis, lots of trees, a monitor lizard, water hens, a grey heron etc etc. SO EXCITING RIGHT :D:D:D -after that, we went to vivocity. meijia, ram and i ate at the food court near vivo. then ram and i went to watch JUNOOO. JUNO ROCKS! :D lots better than i expected. well mostly cos ITS SO SACARSTIC AND SACARSM IS SO MY THING. :D:D:D but yeah. it was really good, completely none cheesy and yeah. it was an intellectual film with a happy ending! how many of those do you see anws. AND IT WAS MY FIRST NC16 MOVIE!! teeheehee. it wasnt very erm whatever though. oh and i did learn something from the movie, other than the whole dont have sex thingy (junos 16! and she drives! O:), and that is:
GUYS SO DHOULD NOT WEAR FBTS ESPECIALLY BRIGHT YELLOW ONES. they are soooo unglammm T.T

Cory's eyes are like a jungle he smiles, it's like the radio he whispers songs into my window in words nobody knows there's pretty girls on every corner that watch him as he's walking home saying, does he know will you ever know
you're beautiful every little piece, love, don't you know you're really gonna be someone, ask anyone when you find everything you've looked for i hope your life leads you back to my door oh but if it don't, stay beautiful
cory finds another way to be the highlight of my day i'm taking pictures in my mind so i can save them for a rainy day it's hard to make conversation when he's taking my breathe away i should say, hey by the way...
you're beautiful every little piece, love, don't you know you're really gonna be someone, ask anyone when you find everything you've looked for i hope your life leads you back to my door oh but if it don't, stay beautiful
if you and i are a story that never gets told if what you are is a daydream i'll never get to hold, at least you'll know
you're beautiful every little piece, love, don't you know you're really gonna be someone, ask anyone when you find everything you've looked for i hope your life leads you back to my front door oh but if it don't, will you stay beautiful beautiful beautiful... beautiful beautiful beautiful
ohh ohh ohhhoh but if it don't Stay Beautiful Stay Beautiful
Head under water And they tell me to breathe easy for a while The breathing gets harder, even I know that You made room for me but it's too soon to see If I'm happy in your hands I'm unusually hard to hold on to
Blank stares at blank pages No easy way to say this You mean well, but you make this hard on me
I'm not gonna write you a love song 'Cause you asked for it 'Cause you need one, you see I'm not gonna write you a love song 'Cause you tell me it's Make or breaking this If you're on your way I'm not gonna write you to stay If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better Reason to write you a love song today
I learned the hard way That they all say things you want to hear And my heavy heart sinks deep down under you and Your twisted words, Your help just hurts You are not what I thought you were Hello to high and dry
Convinced me to please you Made me think that I need this too I'm trying to let you hear me as I am
I'm not gonna write you a love song 'Cause you asked for it 'Cause you need one, you see I'm not gonna write you a love song 'Cause you tell me it's Make or breaking this If you're on your way I'm not gonna write you to stay If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better Reason to write you a love song today
Promise me that you'll leave the light on To help me see with daylight, my guide, gone 'Cause I believe there's a way you can love me Because I say I won't write you a love song 'Cause you asked for it 'Cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song 'Cause you tell me it's make or breaking this
Is that why you wanted a love song 'Cause you asked for it 'Cause you need one, you see I'm not gonna write you a love song 'Cause you tell me it's make or breaking this If you're on your way I'm not gonna write you to stay If your heart is nowhere in it I don't want it for a minute Babe, I'll walk the seven seas when I believe that There's a reason to Write you a love song today
nice lyrics with a funky tune. whats not to love? xD
anws, it is strange how reunions always reminds people of how fast time flies. yesterday, we met up with people i havent seen since like 7 or something. they havent changed much, but its like they dont fit into those memories anymore. you know? you rmb them in a certain way, and then when you meet them again, you edit your memories a little.
when i was 2 and we first came to s'pore, these were the people who lived in the same block as us. the men worked with my dad. they watched me grow up with their kids. but then everyone moved, and the reunions got few and far between. then when you suddenly have one, you truely understand how fast time flies. like this older girl whom ive known since forever, just got married a few years back. shes a tai tai now. wow. and the rest of the kids are all old and going to uni and all that stuff. sometimes it scares me.
ah wells. hols are drawing to a close. next week is tres busy. D:

forgot to update on thurs!
so yup.
thurs, my dad insisted on draggin everyone out, despite us telling him tht nothing is OPEN on cny. so we drove around a little and in the end, decided to go to the spring fest @ esplanade park. (chun dao he pan) it was quite fun! the food was ok and as usual there was the giant statue of cai shen and rat figurines. there was a wishing well too, so i aimed a coin at the little bell that said "学业进步" and MISSED. D: but i got it the second time. does this mean that if i face failure with determination ill succeed? dunno.
anws, the EXCITING PART. THERE WERE BUMPER CARS! :D:D:D:D:D so of course i had to go, even though it was $7.50= almost a movie, but still! bumper cars!
me and my sis xD
it was exciting. :D
friday i was supposed to go out with ram, but since ps i love you isnt out till valentines, we postponed our outing. cos I DONT WANNA WATCH 27 DRESSES. so there annie! xD
yup. jay chous song, so you'll need the lyrics xD ive listened to this song so many times, this is the first time i know the lyrics other than the chorus. heh.
but its a sad song. so.

backstreet boys! xD i wasnt inclined to removing 心里有数 yet, so i decided to put up an mv. if you wanna watch it without 心里有数, press Esc. that would stop 心里有数 and you can then watch "drowning" in peace!
Drowning Backstreet Boys
Don't pretend you're sorry I know you're not You know you got the power To make me weak inside Girl you leave me breathless But it's okay 'cause You are my survival Now hear me say I can't imagine life Without your love Even forever don't seem Like long enough
'Cause everytime I breathe I take you in And my heart beats again Baby I can't help it You keep me Drowning in your love Everytime I try to rise above I'm swept away by love Baby I can't help it You keep me Drowning in your love
Maybe I'm a drifter Late at night 'Cause I long for the safety Of flowing freely In your arms I don't need another lover It's not for me 'Cause only you can save me Oh can't you see I can't imagine life Without your love And even forever don't seem Like long enough
'Cause everytime I breathe I take you in And my heart beats again Baby I can't help it You keep me Drowning in your love Everytime I try to rise above I'm swept away by love Baby I can't help it You keep me Drowning in your love
Go on and pull me under Cover me with dreams, yeah Love me mouth to mouth now You know I can't resist 'Cause you're the air That I breathe
Everytime I breathe I take you in And my heart beats again Baby I can't help it You keep me Drowning in your love Everytime I try to rise above I'm swept away by love And baby I can't help it You keep me Drowning your love
Baby I can't help it Keep me drowning In your love I keep drowning In your love Baby I can't help it Can't help it no, no
'Cause everytime I breathe I take you in And my heart beats again Baby I can't help it You keep me Drowning in your love Everytime I try to rise above I'm swept away by love Baby I can't help it You keep me Drowning in your love

hahaha i think yesterday was best.
first was cny celebrations in school. both sarah and i came in blue cheongsams! qiying came in a red one. but anws. i was actually supposed to go in this pair of white heels, but i woke up that morning, took one look at the height of those and decided that it wasnt worth the effort, so i went in my nikes! which drew a lot of attention hahahahahaa.
the concert was good, i think the emcees were a lot better then most of the past emcees. lion dance! O: there was one lion that was always out of beat though, but it was cool. too bad this would be our last year watching lion dance in our school ):
then was class parttyy!!! whoots. OUR CLASS ROCKS! we had yu shen! i bet we were the only class with yu shen. nyeahhh. we were supposed to do all the ppts and paper cutting thingys, but in the end we just ended up listening to music from youtube. xD
then me and sarah changed out to go and meet kenneth and cw (yuda couldnt come D:) when we finally walked to far east, our meeting with kenneth lasted about long enough for me to realised that he looked a lot like the singapore flag in red and white. and then he decided that he had to go and meet someone else, so he LEFT.
so then it was once again down to me and sarah. we walked to isetan to grab cw some stuff, seeing how i forgot to bring his chocolates. and then we walked back to meet cw. we had ljs at the end of the usual dilemma. haha.
after alike about...1 hour plus, sarah decided that she wanted to go shopping. no actually she decided that before and arranged to meet up with erik and jacq. so, cw had to leave, cos shopping with a guy is an extremely difficult task, which was quite lame for him i think cos he cabbed all the way down from his house?! hahaha sorreyyy.
so me and sarah, again, walked to wisma to meet up with erik and jacq. and then we went to isetan and tried on all the dresses we could find. haha shopping with friends are so different from shopping with parents. when i shop with friends, im more game to try on the weirdest stuff, but i tend to not buy anything. not just because i only hd 10 cents yesterday. xD when i shop with my parents, i buy stuff. so. anws, jacq refused to try on this purple dress we tried to get her to try, but thats jacq.
in the end of about like 3 hours, sarah got this gorgeous mng dress and a pair of heels, erik got this pretty purple dress with a pair of flats, and i got this sense of shared acheivement. heh. but it was quite fun lah. treated as exercise and an excursion.
after i got home and did like 20 mins of bio, my mom suddenly reminded me that we were going to a friend house for "reunion dinner". our family never gets proper reunion dinners cos there no one to reunion with! so we headed over for this really really big dinner. and some playstation 3. xD and my second angbao. heehee. this year not expecting much though. sigh. ah wells.
before i go, a song! i think i shall continue with the pattern of chinese-english-chinese-english. cos its cool.
<333 dadongggg! ~dreamy sigh. he was a koala bear in this mv, but i dont really like fahrenheit mvs cos they are largely strange. only good for eyecandy purposes. xD their new songs are also a bit weird, but this ones quite nice. and easy to sing! except the rapping part. as wonderful as dadong is, he isnt that good at rapping.

we tried so hard, and got so far, in the end it doesn't even matter
today was a freaking screwed up day. wth. it totally messed up my cny mood! im sorry im just very very diasappointed and pissed off right now. rawr.
first, i burnt my fingers during chem! with a hot test tube. worst still is that after i burnt them, i dropped the test tube. so it broke. double loss. my test tubes are not going to last me till the end of this year. so now there are two blisters on my finger. they stopped hurting, but that doesnt mean that they are not burnt.
then, during rs, i found out that we didnt even freaking get shortlisted for ssef! 13 out of 30 people got in (including kenneth, congrats) but wth! i put so much freaking time into it, and i worked so hard sorting out all the paperwork and they dont even give us a chance to participate. i am very angry. and i checked my list, like out of all the teams in my category, there are only 4 non-jc teams. ok so maybe we werent good enough, but let us participate! ever heard of GAIN EXPERIENCE. well, maybe they dont have the logs or whatever to give us the opportunity. butbutbut! RAWR. i am damn pissed off. and very disappointed. and dont say dont think about it cos i will and only if a miracle came upon me and took all the freaking pressure on me to perform this year away, then maybe, just maybe it'll be all alright.
and because today has been such a lousy day, im playing a emo sad song that i initially didnt want to play cos it didnt really go with the happiness of february but now im upset so i dont care. and im too lazy to get the lyrics. basically its aoubt this obessed guy who has this huge crush on this girl. he saw her with a guy, so he killed the guy. yup. morbid song.

today was borrinnggg. i think my brain has already signed up for a holiday and thus will not be working anytime soon. xD which is why this post will be fragmented and disorganised.
I THINK OUR MATH PT TEAM ROCKS! our idea is awesome! we own.
we managed to frustrate ms tan during chem today. not very difficult actually xD
im still trying to decide if i should wear my cheongsma on wed.
and trying to figure out how to fit in rams outing and get those lazy imcb people to go out too within these 5 days. i am confident of succeeding!
today was quite boring. career keys. like how many times ive done disc man. i wanted to go for psl sessions so bad! esp since this weeks is a more exciting one. but our instructor was nice lah. HE HAS 9 KIDS! D:
yup. cny soon. am looking foward to no homework!
and from now onwards, i shall post a song about valentines day on every post. today's is emo. but nice.
Valentine's Day
My insides all turn to ash, So slow
And blew away as I collapse, So cold
A black wind took them away, From sight
And held the darkness over day, that night
And the clouds above move closer
looking so dissatisfied
but the heartless wind kept blowing, blowing
I used to be my own protection, But not now
Cause my path has lost direction, Somehow
A black wind took you away, From sight
And held the darkness over day, That night
And the clouds above more closer
looking so dissatisfied
and the ground below grew colder
as they put you down inside
but the heartless wind kept blowing, blowing
So now you're gone
And I was wrong
I never knew what it was like
To be alone
On a Valentine's Day
On a Valentine's Day
On a Valentine's Day
On a Valentine's Day
On a Valentine's Day
I used to be my own protection
On a Valentine's Day,
But not now
On a Valentine's Day
Cause my mind has lost direction
On a Valentine's Day,
somehow
On a Valentine's Day
I used to be my own protection
On a Valentine's Day But not now
On a Valentine's Day
Cause my mind has lost direction
On a Valentine's Day,
somehow

HURRAY ITS FRIDAY! xD
this week has been an amusing, albeit tiring, one.
for some strange reason, this weeks most talked about topic seemed to be: guys. or men. depending.
like during english, ms lim decided to launch a tirade on her exploits as an o level oral examiner.
Ms Lim: HCI guys are so scarily simlar to one another. When we examine them, they always seem to talk about the same topic. Like once, the topic was "What was your favourite food?" ALL the HCI guys talked about chicken rice! So after hearing 4 people exclaim over it using the same terms, me and my partner got smart. We changed the question! So the next guy who came in, we looked at him and asked "Apart from chicken rice, what is your favourite food?". Of course, he got stumped!
Ms Lim: SJI guys are so wonderful! They are always so charming. But you have to be careful, once you get out of your car, there will be some rushing over going, "Hello Madame, you bag looks heavy..."
-class burst into laughter-
Ms Lim: There was only once when I lost my professionalism. It was in SJI. A boy came in with the most strikingly gelled hair! I couldnt help it! At the end of the exam, I just had to ask, "Excuse me, if I place a pencil on your head, do you think it will stay?" He looked at me and said "I don't know Madame, why dont you try?" So i took my pencil and put it on his hair! And it stayed!
and during trg, Ms Joanneh decided to tell us about all her previous boyfriends. Her first was a RJC guy who used to take the same bus with her. So they were the fairytale bus romance!
Ms Joanneh: Aiyah tell you lah, I actually like SJI and AC guys more lor. They are, I dunno how to say, more charming and polite I think. They know how to treat you properly lor.
and then during chem today,
Ms May Tan: Girls I tell you, those engines (men who take engineering) right, all a bit strange one lah. They dunno how to deal with people what! Because to them, the machine most important. They always work with machines and numbers, they dont really know how to face with people. So right, if you date an engine, make sure you are ready for him to not meet some of your expectations. Engines not very romantic one, but we did manage to find one exception.
Ms May Tan: Arts and those social sciences guys are the best la. Like when I was in ODAC right, all those engines just chiong across the stream or whatever. They will be like " Walk lah! Just walk!" Its the arts guys who will be like "Eh, watch out for that rock, its slippery". And then when you get to the other side of the stream you have to climb up right, the engines are all like "Go! go!" It the arts guys who will like help you take your bag, pull you up. Aiyah, anws, the engines people... they have their own strange way of communication lah.
