HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!
heh. happy happy happy ar everyone.
i'm enjoying the holidays so far, save the fact that i haven't completed my assignments. attempted to finish up my econs mcq amidst all the frenzy at my grandma's house today. but as you can guess, i never managed to get pass 5 questions.
heh.
partly because i didn't know how to do it since i'd left all my notes at home. and also because i SUCCUMBED TO TEMPTATION and ended up playing the day away with my cute cute cousins.
=))
i mean, it's the first time i'm seeing them and it's the first time that i realised that i have relatives who are ABCs!!! Gerrain and Gervin from Houston, Texas in USA. sooo cute leh!! their mother insists on them speaking mandarin at home, so they can actually understand and speak mandarin despite being in US ever since they were born. correction: understand and speak singaporean mandarin.
and their english.... SLANG. i was trying to use the stuffed pineapple as a supposed shield from all the imaginary bullets that Gerrain was firing from his toy gun when he said: "gimme dat pinewapple! row it ter me!" ["give me that pineapple! throw it to me!"] ahh... it was a mix of american slang and the baby slang lah hor. he's only a four-year-old kid anyway. but when i heard him say the 'pineapple' word...
*sigh* i wonder what it is like to live in the states. not that i ever want to go there of course.
and of course my other cousins came today too. Yan, Jed, Fabian, Ruiyang and Ruiqi. Jovin (primary 3 but the Lao Da of our generation cuz he's the son of my uncle) wasn't there though =( Ruiqi and Ruiyang don't have to say lah since i see them almost everyday. heh. Yan and Jed as cute as always =)) and Fabian finally came after so long! he comes only once in a year lah. he used to play with us every weekend when we were small despite leaving in toa payoh. but something happened and everyone grew up so now we only see each other once a year. *sigh*
oh and Ruiqi came over with two of her friends today. Felicia and Ryan if i remembered correctly. very sweet and nice people wor. Ryan has this beatboxing skill that amazed everyone at home. we got everyone out of the rooms to sit at the living room to watch him perform! *wahahahaa* but he was very very good all the same lah. especially the echo echo part. ONE.. oneoneoneone. TWO... twotwotwotwo. EVERYONE CLAPPED.
so! today was a noisy noisy day. lots of relatives, lots of angbaos, lots of "happy new year"s. i'm happy too =))
just that i didn't finish my homework. urghhh.
will be going mass bai nian-ing tomorrow! going to lynette's house with jing fang first. then meeting the lamer gang and tingxu at tampines for mass bai nian-ing. woo!! soo excited. never done this before. i hope it'll go well and no one will pangseh lah.
*hums*
correction: i am SUUUUPER excited.
other than the fact that i won't be completing my assignments. URGHHH. why does it always have to haunt me.

people are seriously getting on my nerves. i hate the way they always want things to be done their way. i hate the way the think they are the only ones with problems. i hate the way they expect things to be done for them without them doing anything for anyone. i hate the way they think they are always right and so suggestions from others can just be thrown into the bin.
and i just cannot stand it when they think they understand me then try to psycho-analyse me then come to the conclusion that i should do things their way.
and above all I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE IGNORE ME INTENTIONALLY.
okay anyways enough of these. rather bad day today.
nah... it can't be. though i love them like blahblahblah... i have to admit that they can't act. i'm sorry. *sobx*
i'm just... VERY SHOCKED.
i think they are adding a yaoi touch to the plot... oh no. never never never ever. *shakes head*
the news is definitely not true. yep. the part about the keita falling on ryuichi part is so fake lah! what "咬着下唇羞涩一笑". urgh. who wrote this. i wanna sue them!!!
hmph. enough of this nonsense.
anyways, their NEW SINGLE is coming out soon! IT'S IN THE STARS, out 22nd February~~~~ special dvd included in the limited edition!!

GRUMBLING
currently listening to: Boku no Kimochi [WaT] UNGLAM POST.
i'll regret typing this post for sure.
and it's in singlish too. red alert.
urgh. super-unglam.
shall never look at this post again.
siao lah. think we so free go do all the thc stuff for them ar. even if we happen to have more time then them also cannot anyhow pile work one mah. sumore we very inexperienced leh! then anyhow anyhow change plan. anyhow anyhow assign tasks to people. how can liddat!
"please get your mentors who are in the planning commitee to assist you, make this a group effort."
diao. think so easy ar. my handphone bill is higher than my housephone bill liao lah. and at the rate our schedules are clashing with the mentees, i don't even know whether mentoring can actually take place lah. plus so many mentees are dropping out of the program, and the blahblah prss teacher hasn't done anything to recruit new mentees yet. liddat already so many mentors not happy liao lah. still wan me to say: "ehh.. people say must make this group effort so come let's plan together hor." helloOo. it's not that easy one lor.
i'm not even sure if i can find my way to the new prss campus lah. what if i lost how? what if i lost then behind me so many mentors also lost how? then will have internal conflict lah. then point here point there then in the end you guess point where?
and plus must get 86 mandarin oranges. prepare gifts. arrange transport time and location. confirm with teachers and blah when i can't even find them. then all this within such a short span of time? you think i everyday got time to prepare these stuff ar? i only wednesday (and maybe friday) got time one lor!
sumore it's not that bad if you want me alone to do the stuff. i mean i can pull out spare time somehow and lump them together and try to come up with the stuff. budden no lor. they want group work lor. then plus alot of the stuff i alone also cannot decide one lor. have to meet with the mentors then discuss one lor. then wednesday is the only day lor. any other day then missing attendance liao lor. actually even if it's wednesday also got people missing one lah. then if we decide stuff without them, they'll come up with new stuff another day. then the entire thing have to edit liao. then edit also cannot i alone decide since it has to be discussed as a group.
if i try to decide in a small small group (say with shirlene and a few others) before informing the rest of them. then some will be thinking how come we never discuss with them. then sometimes bo bian they have to make some sacrifices. if they understand then not so bad. if they don't understand then it becomes my fault. budden there is no other way liao. unless some of us have to have even BIGGER sacrifices for those who are unwilling to. then the whole thing become unfair liao rite? actually wanted to make things fair. then in the end become liddat then seems like the fault does lie with me.
so in the end one time bomb here one time bomb there then one day KABOOM liao. then who's the one whose most jialat?
so how what you wan me to do.
grrr.
and the school is piling like 124267115 number of assignments on us lah. just one weekend and i have to do 3 essays liao. [essays only. got homework that is not essay format too.] THEN i realise there is one more i haven do. THEN i realise out of the 3 essays, 2 can be essay outlines. double diaos lah.
and i can't finish the assignments lah. not that i purposely don't do. it's that i CANNOT FINISH lah. do do do then cannot finish. then become like i never do homework liddat.
like the dunno what silas marner chapter analysis. only one week how to do? one week can lah but how to be detailed and comprehensive? if wan it to be for our benefit then it should be as detailed as possible mah. then give us one week on top of all the other 124267114 assignments and cca. how to be detailed liddat? i took 1 hour for chapter 1 lah!
ok i admit maybe i am abit too slow. but it'll also take 1/2 hour at least lah. how many 1/2 hours do i have left when schools ends at 4.10pm? there's other homework also one leh!
then plus still got tests and projects and presentations. suay lah my class register number 1. whatever presentation also i go first. LIM also can get class register number 1. dunno how they arrange one lah.
grrr.
i haven't studied for the gothic essay test tmr lah. i simple refuse to read vathek. frankenstein quite interesting but no time to read. although i did most of the readings during the holiday, I CAN'T REMEMBER A SINGLE THING. how to do essay liddat. die liao lah. confirm kena his saliva when the results are out.
haiizzzz.
oh blahblahblahblah. i forgot to watch naruto again. grrrr.
i dun like school lah.
like duh.

orientation 2006
currently listening to: Boku no Kimochi [WaT]
heh. orientation was not bad. not bad at all i would say. yep maybe some boring moments here and there. but when it was suppose to be fun, everyone and everything was fun. and of cuz you can't compare it to other orientations, but since i'm involved in this one i think it's good.
wahahahhaa.
and my ogms are suuuuper sweet! they made cards with personal messages from every one of them. then they overturned loads of badges to dig up Beatles badges for us. (cuz we were from the Beatles Family) plus they gave us ferrero chocolates <3 and jonathan even drew a cartoon version of us on the card!!
awww!!! we were hugging each other here and there after the orientation nite. wish that the orientation could be longer. i enjoyed the wet games even though i got squashed like, erm something squashable during the 'grab the water bomb and run game' (whatever you call it) the cheering part was great too, had never ever screamed so loudly before. the mass dance was the part i thought was a really important part of the entire orientation. O nite was a blast, everyone was so high and all. and most importantly, i had an adorable OG who was willing to go all out to have fun when we needed to!
orientation night was high high high. although many of them said it wasn't as high as last year's one, i still think it's not too bad considering the kind of theme we had. i'm just a little *ahem* puzzled why they didn't make us do the mass dance at the end. i thought it was suppose to be the point of practising for the mass dance! to get all high and all when you dance it one last time during O nite. they only played 'shy guy' after most of the ogms have left for home. -______-"
BUT! nonetheless, O nite itself and the performances were great. it would have been even better if i had remembered to call home cuz my mom was practically screaming away at home when ruiqi called me. but that's my problem. wahaaha. Beatles performance was really funny. and i thought The Who put up a really great performance! i can't really remember what the Eagles did though they won the best O Nite performance award. hahahaha. i guess it was because i was furiously working on the gifts for the ogms with my fellow ogls.
which reminds me, jingfang, tom and rowena!! my companions for the entire orientation experience. was rather worried about being grouped together with un-enthu ogls. but these 3 can get really high when they need to lah! okay, even when they don't need to they're also high. wahahahahhaa.
will always remember how we roughed it out during the dry and wet games. how tom got mercilessly bombed by the ogms. how we screamed and shouted to lift up the OG morale. the time we were busying ourselves over the OG8 placard. the day we shaked our butts for so long at the kodak shop. the moments where we thought for ages about the gifts for ogms. the lunch we had together at the hawker centre, listening to each other's small details in life. how we met tom's aquantainces so often when we were at Tampines Central. and the time we rushed to write the messages for the ogms. at the stadium in the dark. and at the hall in the dark with the music and performances rocking behind our backs.
*smiles*
the Beatles OGLs were really great too. even though we sometimes get headaches from the lack of family morale. we would always come together to discuss cheers and stuff. screaming our lungs out for the Beatles cheers. painstakingly teaching the ogms the cheers and trying to get them to be enthusiastic. trying to pit ourselves against the Eagles. thick-skinned-ly went up stage voluntarily to sing the LOST cheer against the Eagles. [it had a YMCA tune] competing with the councillors for a louder volume since they always want to talk when we are trying to talk to the entire family. and finally rocking the house during these few days of orientation =) i'd say i'm really pleased with the experience. made new friends, trained up my voice, got to know how to work with people i had never ever spoken to, coming up with cheers and stuff.
and of course the ogms were the highlights. don't be deceived by their appearances, these people really have the spirit when the situation calls for it. they came from various secondary schools so there wasn't any 'groupings' or stuff. to think i thought that i would end up with an extremely small OG with no guys at all! there were 3 guys (more than what i expected so i am happy =))). and for the rest of the OG, though the first 2 days were extremely tiring and boring, they always got themselves to school on time and to our relief. sure there were some absentees here and there, but the remaining of the OG never failed to give me full-power cheers and screams and yells. really hope that they enjoyed tpjc orientation 2006. keep the beatles og8 spirit rocking!!!
hugs and kisses to: emilyn, jothi, camilla, tanvi, wei ling, wei lin, sukmawati, hui qi, denise, venessa, jonathan, khyrul, jing huang, stella, fadhillah, wanyu, jaslin, hwee ling and adele!!!
B E A TLES! WE ARE SO GONNA KICK SOME ASS!!!
okie. sounds like i'm frantically trying to recall every single detail of the orientation. really, sometimes i really think i'm rather longwinded. [okay i know you guys will be rolling your eyes and slapping your foreheads right now]
ohhh!! and something really pleasant happened during the orientation period. in the canteen =))) *wahahahaha*
*skips off to indulge in macified daydreams*

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
currently listening to: Zai Jian Le Fa La Li [Some Guy Screaming In A HK Movie]
happy new year! tough year ahead! so good luck everyone!
okay so i was lunching at marche orchard with my family today. on the way back to paragon i kept hearing drums. drum drum drum drum. didn't think much of it. [you see i'm rather immune to such sounds since my mother forces me to sleep next to a 'waterfall' every night]
yeah so i didn't think it was anything until i crossed the road. then my brother started running towards us and exclaiming stuff like, "WAH K**. HEN LI HAI LEH!" then being the curious girl that i am (not usually) i wormed my way into the crowd before me.
Ethan Ong, 6 years old, 'Youngest Busker in Singapore'. hontou ni kawaii desu yo! i didn't see his face at first actually. just saw the sign with his name and background sort of stuff. then when i finally squeezed myself to the front he was taking his break.
wahhh.... i saw this super cute boy sitting there lah. was thinking, "how can a thing this cute drum until like that?" [sorry ar i think in singlish] then he started drumming again.
wahhh... i tell you. i'm developing paedophile tendencies. he's so cool when he drums lah! can't stand >.< i can just imagine the number of girls swooning over him when he grows up lah. not only does he busk like a professional, he actually looks good too~
okay this is bad. i should stop. don't get me started. i'm relentless.
okay so moving on. i spent the first minute of the new year and the subsequent hours watching the w-inds. clip that i downloaded. what's new right? but i like it. hmphh.
w-inds. no minna san hontou ni yasashii desu ne~~ they actually went to one of the fan's house upon request. the girl's best friend wanted to surprise her for some reason i cannot yet understand with my limited grasp of the japanese language. so she got w-inds. to go to her house to surprise her. all of them were really great about the whole idea. so off they went to her house and they met the girl's mother, who was rather shocked when she answered the door to find the camera pointing at her.
the 3 of them 'schemed' with the mother. ryuichi went to pray for the girl since she was sitting for the national exam for pharmacists i think? keita and ryohei stayed in the house to cook a meal for her. meanwhile the friend who requested the visit had to stall time and bring her around godknowswhere so w-inds will have enough time to prepare. and the 2 of them said lots of funny stuff on the way too. *wahahaa*
so the girl finally headed for home. the 3 of them went to hide under her blanket so they could jump out and surprise her when she returns. so they just stayed there. *waahahhaa*
it was really such a nice thing to do lah! to cheer her on for the national exams. (ryuichi even gave her a lucky amulet he bought for her at the temple) they even sang the acoustic version of 'ageha' right in her bedroom. and they also took a group photo together in the room!!
heh.... i also wan!!!! *envious* [just a tad jealous only ok]
demo i really like it when w-inds. do such things ne~ makes me like them even more. hahaha. it's unexplainable. =)
ohh, and i received a chain of emails lately. from my beloved choir juniors and friends. makes me feel really nostalgic ne, the mails. everyone started sharing about their choir experiences. from the time they saw the dreaded cca next to their name, to the day when they've all eaten the catered food from the farewell party. it was a really long and tedious process ne? but here we are now, feeling much nostalgic about the whole thing, wondering whether it was a good or bad thing to a graduated from choir already.
unlike most of them who were forced to join choir, or didn't put choir as the priority cca during the selection period, i actually chose to join choir voluntarily, out of my own accord. that was because i was out of volleyball already, and choir was next to the best cca i can ever think of joining. (since i had the experience and lots of friends are in choir so why not?) i guess i'd never thought about the reason why i kept going for choir practices. now to think of it, i don't know whether it's the music or the people that attracted me. it just became a routine to be in a choir room twice every week.
haha. maybe we shouldn't think too much. things were destined to happen, it's all fate. we can only accept, be it grudgingly or willingly. and then when it's finally over, just reminisce. and that's all we can and should do. anything more would probably mean that you're trying to bury yourself in the past.
i reminisced. i laughed. i smiled. i move on. heh heh.
ahh. okay. so i shall be working on the leftovers of the holiday assignments tomorrow. no, i'm not gonna read vathek. [i rather go bang my head against the wall.] maybe i'll finish up the GP logs, then try to read and understand inflation and foreign exhange rate. and maybe do some revision for history and economics?
okay. maybe i shouldn't make such big plans yet. since i always mess them up in the end. better stick to finishing up the reading logs first. it's quite hard to confirm whether i'll be doing revision or not. argh. i dunno what i'll do lah.
oh man, the english in this entry is horrigible. maybe i've been browsing through too many chinese webbies.
