i can't believe this.
i forgot my yahoo ID.
i can't remember if it's daisytoots86, crazypoot or some other erratic nick.
i believe i can remember my password perfectly well though.
how am i going to set up a yahoo group without my nick?
i don't want a new account. my old account's with the two street teams.
how disastrous.
now i've gotta e-mail tiara to ask for my account nick. hahahah:)
she'll probably think i'm nuts. oh wellz, not as nuts as the person who asked her to swim over for darren hayes concert:) *grInz*
i'm setting up a street team, a street team, a street team, i'm setting up a street team *beambeambeam*
*lol*:) hahha. aiyah. darren shouldn't come to singapore on the 19th...why can't he drag his tour and be here after the A maths paper? the empty six days before our lousy geog paper 1? and to think we're discussing if we should go to the airport to welcome him. hahaha:) and cindy's asking me if i've set up my yahoo group yetz. and it's the prelims.
which also reminds me...i've gotta join the official fanclub soon. so interesting. just when i've used up all my savings. hehehe:)

ohohoohh.
there is another reason why i feel happy:) *grInz*
DARREN HAYES IS COMING TO SINGAPORE ON THE 19th NOVEMBER!:) hahaha:) and he's holding the concert at...none other than one of the proposed venues for our prom night... FORT CANNING HILL.
*beamz*
that's the good news:)
the bad news is that it's the day before we have our A-maths paper 2. how nice.
oh wellz:) shall figure some stuff out:)

"Always direct your thoughts to those truths that will give you confidence, hope, joy, love, thanksgiving, and turn away your mind from those that inspire you with fear, sadness, depression." - Bertrand Wilbertforce
which is what i should have done in the first place...instead of dwelling more on it:) *beamz* after i typed all those stuff down, i went to think it out. *grInz* and now i feel perfectly happy. hahaha:) wellz. i saw on the news the competition that went on at Toa Payoh Sports Hall...true, i feel extremely disappointed that i'm not there due to misreading of time, but i guess it's not too bad afterall...for i still have sunday's:) so i watched the news, then went on watching zhen qing:) really amusing. i was telling my mum how it seems strange to me that all of the people in there seem to have committed fornication (okay maybe not all) and my mum was saying how the show teaches people the wrong things. oh wellz:)
then i continued watching the last episode of 'jiu cen gao', which of course ended perfectly nicely. all stories must have a perfect ending:) nice and cheerful. for the news time i tried fixing up the vcd cum ...whatever stuff... player to the tv. didn't exactly work though. my dad says it could be due to something wrong with the cable. i guess being in ava's not too bad...at least you have basic knowledge about setting up of equipment...then i watched 'splash'...the story about this mermaid who went on land to find the guy she saved when she was a small mermaid. how they fell in love and everything else. haha. rather amusing at times. oh wellz:) i thought the guy looked rather like a dork. and the mermaid...there are scenes when you wonder if she's wearing clothes or not..or if it's just her hair covering up everything (extremely long hair. i thought the fin looked elegant)
yeah, so that ended at twelve. then i switched over to channel 8, wanting to watch the Kindaichi show that isobel and qingz told me about. turns out that i've watched it before. talked to qingz from 12 something to 1am....and now i feel happy:) *grInz*:)

i need an outlet for pent-up feelings.
i think i'm going to burst.
i wonder if that's how people get mad.
too much pent-up feelings.
i feel like crying and laughing at the same time.
what the peep.

why are people rational?
why am i rational?
can't i be irrational?
i should be irrational for once.
why must i be binded by my morals.
why can't i do what i want?
why can't i just care about myself?
why can't i be evil?
why can't i be antisocial?
why can't i hate everyone?
yah. why should people be nice to other people?
sheesh.
xinying. you have the right to do what you want. to assert your opinions. to not care about how others may feel. SAY WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY! FROWN AT PEOPLE WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE IT. SNAP AT THEM. DON'T LET THEM TAKE YOU FOR GRANTED.
lousy crap you.
GO HATE SOMEONE.
who cares about the consequences anyway?

and i so badly want to catch the competitions. on the opening night.
why does this stupid sorta thing happen to me? table tennis! i wanted to watch it so badly. it's not fair. why can't they print the time bigger or something simiLar. now i'm going to have an unused blue ticket sitting in my drawer. *despairs*
freakifiedfreakifiedfreakified.

console self console self console self
AAARGH.
nvmnvmnvmnvmnvm. u still have the finals xinying.
AAAARGHH.
why izzit at 6pm? SOMEONE TELL ME WHY IS IT AT 6 PM!!!!??!?!?!?!?!?
freakified. ask the match to go and die.
i thought it's 7!!!! 77777777!!!!!
how can it be 6? i don't get it. it SHOULD BE 7!!!
OPENING NIGHT!
AARGH. all the people will be there. ALL THE PEOPLE.
CRAP.

hah. i just remembered a 1998 song.
-i'm a -, i'm a lover
i'm a child, i'm a mother
i'm a sinner, i'm a saint
i do not feel ashamed
i'm your hell, i'm your dream,
i'm nothing in-between
you know you wouldn't want it any other way-
i can only remember this part. oh wellz.
listening to 'to the moon and back' now. bored. sleepy. going off for table tennis in less than an hour's time. i shall go catch some sleep. sleep! wait for me!

i'm back from the dinner. yuckier food than last year. dad should get another caterer.
oh wellz, *grInz*, i'm in a perfectly delighted mood though. or rather was in...one'll know why afterwards.
i had this primary 6 boy sitting opposite me today...rather entertaining conversation we had as well. he's very exaggerated, and i'm very exaggerated, so we ended laughing most of the time. nice boy. i think little boys are so entertaining. oh wellz, this one's from zhonghua primary school, and wants to go to zhonghua secondary:)
anywayz, that's not the main thing... the main thing is that *hahaa* we've not got a VCD cum MP3 cum karaoke player. i think the karaoke part comes from watching too much 'zhen qing' hahahaha:) and we've got a new 15 inch (how big is that? rather small. oh wellz. nvm about it. *grInz*) tv which states that it has a flat CRT (whatever it is) especially for this player. mum says it's to facilitate singing. i'm amused:) at least i'm getting to finish watching 'xiao ao jiang hu' after so long. woohoo:)
i've never really noticed how heavy the living room TV is until today...when i tried to lift it up and could only manage to life the corner and shift it sideways. trust my luck to be down when i'm moving it...i ended up squashing my index finger under the TV. and then i couldn't open the gate for mum to carry in the new TV 'cos i couldn't move the finger. oh wellz. now my finger looks okay...just can't feel anything. *beamz* at least if i accidentally cut myself (i hope not!) tomorrow during practical, it won't hurt.
i shan't go on to say how i managed to shift the second tv from its original position and carried it to put it on the floor and back up on the drawers once more. i feel as if i've just finished a game of basketball. muahahaa. my hand hurts.
so now i am. 11.58pm at night and i'm still awake. though i feel exhausted. and having studied no biology at all. how lazy of you xinying.

hahaha. stephanie's 'zhi lai zhi wang's really happy and upbeat. *grInz* really amusing as well. hahaha. it's those kinda songs that most people will like once they heard it. quite cool effects:)
-zai4 hui2 jia1 de lu4 shang4 xiang3 yi4 xiang3
ai4 ru2 guo3 gen4 nan2 kan4 jiu4 yao4 fang4-
(directly translated, it goes...' thinking on the way back home, if love's too ugly then one's gotta drop it')
thought teachers' day's celebrations were rather entertaining:) and the disco dance put up by the teachers is really funny. very nice:) *grInz* ooh. the small recordable CDs are really cute! hahaa. and they even have the fish CD case for the small CDs as well. oh manz. really miniature. rather adorable:) *beamz*
grace was just telling me all about jonk on the way home... about how he's rather unfocused and really playful ...gets distracted easily or something. and totally accident-prone. i thought the description sounded a tad familiar...and i was thinking to myself : *haha* ..sounds like a typical piscean. oh wellz. maybe astrology isn't that far off afterall. he IS a piscean, having the same birthday as chiew. manz. but he's really good in sports. according to grace, he's in the national hockey team, and he's the one who run 2.4km in 8 mins plus. bah. btw, he's one year younger than chiew:) *grInz*
and after a buncha stuff that grace said, i suggested that he's physically growing, but his brain still remains child-like. *hahaha*:)

I taste like Peanut Butter. I am one of the most blendable flavours; I go with sweet, I go with sour, I go with bland, I go with anything. I am practical and good company, but have something of a tendency to hang around when I'm not wanted, unaware that my presence is not welcome. What Flavour Are You?

sorrie...couldn't resist the below statement. wellz, you see, i just happened to see that .gif...and i was reminded of that statement. *grInz*
i'm addicted to Michael Learns to Rock songs. listening to 'you took my heart away'... some of the songs are nice...but the last time we listened to the whole CD, i got a tad sick of it. oh wellz. i hereby conclude that to listen to MLTR songs, you have to intersperce the songs with other songs...preferably one of a different style:)
practical wasn't too hard i guess...except that i got a terribly different answer from yengyong...i've got 10.4 m/s^2 for my acceleration and yengyong have got a 9.6 for hers. how crap. at least i have more confidence in my physics practicaL:) which is rather good i suppose. i hope i have even more confidence for my biology:) hahaha. i think i'm going to bank in on biology for my one science result.
let me calculate.
L1 - higher chinese ( no confidence for both actually)
R5 - a-maths, geography, biology, chinese, elect (? dunno if i can get enough marks for the lit component... sighz.)
higher chinese freaks me out. i keep thinking about the fact that the grade i get for this year will affect the A levels. aargh. i really wanna get good results for my A levels. and i don't mean just ordinary...i wonder if i can really force myself to excel. *ponderz*
-watching the stars satisfies my soul-
the music for 'the actor' is really nice. especially the flute parts.
ahz. a quote. from HG Wellz. which reminds me. i lost 'the invisible man' in sec one. whoever borrowed it never returned to me. *frown* and 'great expectations'. and 'the clay marble'. *frowns more*
' the past is but the beginning of a beginning,
and all that is and has been is but the twilight of the dawn '

sometimes, the lies in letting go.

what's that chinese phrase?
hmmz. qian1 yan2 wan4 yu3, jing4 zai4 bu4 yan2 zhong1.
[ a million thoughts, unspoken ]
i'm bored.
no. i'm restless.
i don't know which jc to go to. how sad.
i don't know if i can get into a good one. even sadder.
oh wellz.
i shall go off to my corner of the bed and ponder about life.
hahaha.
-maybe it's time to say goodbye-

ahz. finished buying the teachers' day presents. *beamz*
ooh. i thought i didn't spend much money...turns out that i've spent $46.50. how interesting. my piggy bank is... empty once more. oh wellz, not really, there's just enough to buy a movie ticket. hahahaha:) i guess i've gotta start saving all over again for all the things that i'd like to buy. *grInz* all these saving and spending ain't doing much ... i shall just have one entire month in which i don't spend any money on unnecessary stuff at all...hmmz. maybe i should. september? yeah. let's just make it september. i can't remember when yengyong's birthday is though. heh. i hope she doesn't have her birthday in september. okay. no spending on unnecessary stuff in september. except for food. wonderful.
hmmz. i'm curious to know. am i the only person who feels unsatisfied with the relationships i have?
ahz. perhaps we shouldn't ponder about such things so near the exams. may affect the mood. *beamz*:):):) which will then *ah-haz* affect the results...which will then affect the three-months entry thingie. tsktsk. not very good:)
-dangerous, i've been trained to bust-
i dislike the one-person journey to school very much. actually i dislike going anywhere on my own. really terrible. waiting for someone at the mrt station is even worse. i think i'd rather go fetch the person or something. oh wellz. at least i'll have company sooner. rather than trying to spot your friend among the throngs of people coming out of the gates...and not feel too self-conscious.
strange. dad's not home at 11.15pm. i wonder if he's preparing for thursday's dinner. oh well. going downstairs to see if he's really down there. orders from mum. cyaz.

ah. i don't believe in pain as the ultimate outcome in love.
perhaps one may feel hurt and get disillusioned and all that in the process of discovering for oneself the meaning of love..but the ultimate outcome will be one of how-shall-i-put-it.... of a deeper understanding in this topic, the awareness of the weaknesses of oneself and an acknowledgement that the other person exists as an individual being who has his/her own ideas and beliefs.
never hurt.
perhaps some may argue...but trust me. probe deeper into how you really feel and you will see what i mean.

there's something wrong with my winamp. and my icq. how strange. some programme which has just died on my i suppose. can't translate the songs to the correct format ...which i feel is rather weird. i shall try my realone player. okay...it's definitely something wrong with one of the programmes. sound programmes. ah wellz:)
going to buy more teachers' day presents later:) for now, i've purchased the cme teacher's, mrs kuan's, mrs yak's and mr tan's. can't seem to shoot properly today. i mean, i shoot, then none of the balls go in. none at all. really terrible. ooh. i've formed a miniature 'shao jiao bao' fan club. it's so mini it consists of only one member. *grInz* hahaha. and i have an 'eggie fan club', as miniature as my 'shao jiao bao' fan club. haha:)
isobel's going with me to watch the table tennis match this sunday:) i'm contemplating going swimming before that...or at least to the library. anyone wanna go out? just for sunday?:)
i've always believed that 'what goes around comes around'...but i've never known that it'll be so...accurate. that the consequence of committing an action actually happens so fast it shocked me rather.

i want a crisis. give me a crisis.
no wait. i don't want a crisis now. how about after the o level exams? and nothing to do with my exam results? give me a crisis.
then i'll have experience in this...so that in the future when i meet with more crisises, i'll know how to deal with it.
oh, give me a crisis,
give me a crisis,
give me a crisis,
now..........
miss choo says that we can't say that we'll be able to handle crisises well if we've never met with one. so give me a crisis.
life's getting boring as well. give me a crisis.

hmmz. how disastrous. and i was about to tell my mum how nice the school has been to supply testtubes today when one of the testtubes slipped from the 'i love huggies' handkerchief and shattered onto the floor. just when my mum was moping the floor as well. the first test-tube that i've broken. and i broke it at home. aargh. it's the first time that the test-tubes have visited too! how crap.
oh btw, clover loved the yogurt thingie:) hahaha. she bit me when i repeatedly tried to teach her how to shake hands...i do believe she was trying to get back to sleep. hehe:) anywayz, the point is, she bit me and i decided that perhaps i should let her try the yogurt thing...and she snatched it away from me. how rude. and she ran away whenever i tried to teach her how to shake hands while she's enjoying her yogurt thing. bah.
i shall teach her tonight. when she's more awake...train her to want to shake hands whenever she sees the yogurt thingie or something. i don't know. i guess i'll train her in the same way as when i trained her to respond to her name:) *beamz* anywayz, clover loved the yogurt thingie so much she consumed the entire thing before she went to sleep again. which is quite amazing 'cos she was extremely sleepy and her eyes were closed when she ran away from me to eat the yogurt:)
-and listen carefully to the sound of loneliness,
like a heartbeat drives you mad-
manz. somehow or another i love that line. hahaha:)

ahz. i've found the song that describes what i feel.
'the journey' - 911
Time waits for no one, sure as the tide pulls the ocean
Sure as the path that's been chosen cannot be changed
In my life's destination, I searched for the explanation
For some kind of reason for my sorrow and pain
But in my isolation, I learned to listen
To be thankful for the love that I'd been given

Chorus:
This is my journey, journey through life
With every twist and turn,
I've laughed and cried as the road unwinds
This is my journey, and I've learned to fight
To make me strong enough, to lift me up, to bring my dreams alive

In my desperation, I swore never again
Would I hear all the laughter of my friends and my family
A million tears that I'd cry then began to dry
Silence of the night time
I have come to realize a sweet inspiration filled my horizon
Gave me the heart to go on and never would give in

Repeat Chorus

I'm going to love each moment of every day and every night
I'll look back to the past with the sweetest smile
For now, I realize I've been given the key to life
I've been kissed by the angel by my side
Oh, yeah

Repeat Chorus

To bring my dreams alive
To bring my dreams alive

i'm going to watch the 2002 Women World Cup Table Tennis competitions:) whoooohooo. so cooL. hahaha. i'll be abLe to see the best table tennis players from all over the world. 17 countries or so or something simiLar to that i can't really remember:) *grInz*:)
WHOO! someone asked for 'the journey' from 911! they have GREAT TASTE i tell you:) GREAT TASTE. although i haven't heard the song before. muahahaha. but any song by 911 is bound to be nice:) shall search for the lyrics:)
anywayz, back to table tennis:) i've bought tickets to the competition for the opening night (30th August, friday) and the finals (1st September, sunday) been won over by them when jing junhong and lee jiawei had an exhibition match in the midst of the central, and the other two national players playing table tennis with us:) friendly people! ooh. lee jiawei is 173 cm. that's tall for someone who usually plays table tennis. and manz. they tend to keep the ball extremely close to the net, and it goes really fast as well. and i think they've been trained to be able to manipulate the ball to hit whichever spot they wish it to be at. beautifuL skills:) polite as well. i've been won over. hahaha:)

well, i forgot all about the testimonial until i read qing's blog. so i'm doing my testimonial today as well:)
being extremely bored. haven't bought the teachers' day present. actually i nearly forgot about it till mum reminded me. hehehe:)
-his bounty's endless like the sea
his love is endless, just as deep
the more he give the more he has
'cos both of them are truely infinite
she'll take him to brink of deliverance,
show him that much-
that's from 'shakespeare in love' ...nice song:) took an exceedingly long time to download. *grInz*:) oooh. which reminds me. i'd better search for the lyrics of 'dreams' by the corrs. rather amusing when i found out both jitsy and i love the song but have never gotten the lyrics:)

-stars fly and the worlds collide when i'm falling at your feet-
hah. that would be expected to happen isn't it? it reminds me of the cartoon images of little stars going around in a circle. oh wellz:)
after 8 months of not mudding, i have started the habit of opening the mccp client and then opening the telnet programme once again to mud. oh wellz. i guess it's partly 'cos i don't believe that aardwolf hasn't deleted my character after more than half a year...when it's clearly stated in the rules that they'll do so. jitsy is rather amazed as well.
questor hasn't been quite kind as well, giving me all sorts of easy mobs. the first quest got me 8 qp...but the subsequent two got me 20 and 22 respectively ...and adding on the additional two mccp quest points for each quest, it adds up rather nicely. so i got myself a regen ring. rather disappointed about the other character being deleted though. it had a couple of aarditems and nice eq. and a lot of tps, trains, practices and qps. and to think i've wasted a lot of time on that character. ah wellz.
-if you see the wonders, of the fairytale,
you can take the future, even if it fails
i believe in angels, something good in everything i see
i believe in angels, when i know the time is right for me
across the streams, i have a dream-
i feel positively strange today. i feel like my bubble of calmness is being threatened. and that it's going to be ruptured soon.
-take a look around
i'm the sunshine in your hair
i'm the shadow on the ground
i'm the whisper in the wind
i'm your imaginary friend
and i know, i'm in your prayers
oh i'm already there-

i'm positively entertained.

All your programming undergoes a metamorphosis. With you it's all or nothing. You have the opportunity to die to the old self and re-emerge reborn.

drinking magnolia strawberry flavoured milk now:) *grInz* reminds me of the time in primary school when we will place orders for milk...then we'll being like 6 packets of a certain flavour of milk home... every week:) *beamz*:) the same type of milk as of what i'm drinking now. haven't thought about it for more than 6 years:) feels nice to be reminded of primary schooL:)
personally, i prefer vanilla flavoured stuff much more than strawberry flavoured ones or chocolate flavoured ones. vanilla tastes nicer! and not so sweet:) really can't stand stuff that are too sweet. oh, sourness and hotness and bitterness are okay..just don't give me stuff that are sweet. can't take the extreme of sweetness.
just consumed an orange and half an apple after the above chunk.
Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life, and when it comes, hold your head high. Look it squarely in the eye, and say, "I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me." - Ann Landers
ooh. i just remembered. i tried translating my mother's quote of 'bu4 zhi1 zhe3 wu2 zui4'...then i've realised that once translated, it sounds rather nice as well. it goes 'the ignorant is innocent'. hahaha:) *grInz* sounds nice right? i think so too. hahaha:)
i still feel rather disturbed about all these religion stuff. i feel that if there are certain things that one wanna say, one should just spread it in the open and talk openly about it...instead of murmuring among themselves...isn't it better to know more about each other in the way? and at least to understand how they feel and possibly react to certain incidents.
-i see the light, ooh what a light, and i am sober-
ah. i think i'll be spending the whole night thinking about the whole thing. oh well. byebye sleep.

interesting. since i'm not changing my religion, does that mean i'm condemned to hell?
izzit truely considered as a religion if you believe in the fundamentals, not because you choose to, but because you're afraid?
izzit not then considered as manipulation of other people's fears? isn't it then indirectly FORCING people to join?
can't a person just choose to learn more about a friend's religion? must i WANT to join in i join in for a while?
must i then make a finite decision onto whether i want to be committed to it?
i've always thought that people spread the gospel to want to share with other people the joy they have in life because of their religion. am i that wrong?
if i've always respected people due to the above belief, am i then, to choose to feel contempt towards them?
and how would a person know that his/her religion does exist and mine don't?

ooh. i suddenly remembered...i was going to comment on jiu cen gao...the show on channel 8 at 9pm on mondays to fridays. okay, i'm not a channel 8 fan, instead, i'd rather watch channel u shows over channel 8 shows any time...but that show is quite good:) keli and her husband don't know how to express their feelings, their care and concern for each other properly. that's what caused them to perpectually 'quarrel'...when instead, keli was nagging at her husband 'cos she cares about him and don't really want him to do manual hard work and suffer. then i was thinking, that's the situation with my mum as well. she constantly nags and scolds and watever whenever we stay out too late and didn't call to inform her or something 'cos she cares about us and worries if we are alright. it's just that the way she chooses to show it may cause rebellion and irritation from us occasionally, especially when we've been really tired and stressed out and something similar. which is kinda sad. because it'll probably lead to an argument or something, and a cold war.
therefore i conclude that it's very important to know the right way to get your message across. and an occasional surprised showering of affection and care won't hurt anyone:) and sometimes, it's much better to be the one who's showering others with these instead of being the person who receives it:) and even if one doesn't receive it from others, one shouldn't get too disappointed..'cos everyone else has got their own agenda, and as long as you know that your little compassion will one day be realised, or warm their hearts, it's actually more than enough:)
that statement of 'i'm happy when my friends are happy:)'

-everyone told me to be strong, hold on and don't shed a tear-
the above line is for everyone:) - hold on, be strong and don't shed a tear.
-where it was weak, now i've found my strength-
i haven't really, but i guess i'm discovering it:) *grInz*:) just gotta keep on uncovering it:)
- Keeping a smile on your face when inside you feel like dying, for the sake of supporting others
...is Strength -
i haven't felt like dying for a long long while. it's a very nice feeling to be able to think from two person's point of views at the same time, while at the same time analysing the situation and coming up with something to say. sorta like participating in how the person feels and understand how the person has gone through, while at the same time, able to see it from a different angle, to be able to detach yourself completely and not get affected. that kind of feeling is just...amazing. it never fails to surprise me when i'm able to do it:) it's like living another life, and yet never ever really going through all the pain and such. two personas in one body.

“The truth will set you free.” (John 8:32)

this comes from kevin. the oral stuff for today...the same one grace and michelle had. the picture and reading anyway:)
reading : some chemistry lesson
picture: health education lesson in a primary school
Conversation : 1) what in your opinion are the most important qualities for being a teacher?
2) do you think you have the qualities to be a good teacher?
why don't they ask me THAT kind of questions ahz? how unfair. oh wellz. i hope the topic tomorrow will be something fun:) or else i'll probably do rather badly.
hmmz. here's something for people who likes chocolates (i still don't:)

Chocolate is a Vegetable
Chocolate is derived from cocoa beans. Bean = vegetable. Sugar is derived from either sugar cane or sugar BEETS. Both of them are plants, in the vegetable category. Thus, chocolate is a vegetable.
To go one step further, chocolate candy bars also contain milk, which is dairy. So candy bars are a health food.
Chocolate-covered raisins, cherries, orange slices and strawberries all count as fruit, so eat as many as you want.

O level orals tomorrow. how interesting. i don't really feel nervous yet...but then i don't feel nervous until i'm actually really going for it...then all the fear starts to rise...
oh guess what? we actually have a stress hormone:) and guess what? we can reduce stress level by consuming more vitamin C... *grInz* isn't that wonderful? oh yeah. a few sleeping tips. always sleep in a bulk (don't just sleep for a few mins and wake up or something similar), try to wake up at the same time everyday..or else your body system may get mixed up. ah. two is enough. i can't remember anything else. heh:)
i feel sleepy though. oh wellz. wanted to go swimming this saturday or tomorrow evening or something similar. but i guess it's not possible now. i'm in the mood for some exercise:) particularly swimming. aargh.

i like this comic:)

rather nice and considerate of the little boy don't you think? hahaha:) speaking of little boys...i saw haoran today... manz. he's sec 1 this year...but he's still so...tiny. *grInz* i was like ' sec 1 alreadyz? and you're still so small?' and he went 'yah'. looks like a primary 4 student or something similar:) oh well, who knows. maybe the next time i see him, he'll have had a growth spurt:) i think little boys are so cute. hahaha. i want a little brother. oh well. or an older brother.
ooh. which reminds me. my mother was telling me about this auntie who kept complaining that she doesn't have a daughter...then my mum was saying (jokingly of course) that she'll let me be her god-daughter (muahahaha. i don't want another god-mother)...then the auntie's husband (the uncle of course *grInz*) went like...what's your daughter's age? maybe we can be relatives. and my mum kinda got a shock. i am perfectly amused. anyway, the guy is coming out from the university this year or something. haha, if anyone's interested, you can apply to be the god-daughter instead...or as the uncle says, be relatives. *haha*
poor bumblebee. it must have been frightened to death.

Dr. Seuss Explains Why Computers Sometimes Crash

(*grInz* read it aloud. it sounds nicer that way)

If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port, and the bus is interrupted at a very last resort, and the access of the memory makes your floppy disk abort, then the socket packet pocket has an error to report.
If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash, and the double-clicking icon puts your window in the trash, and your data is corrupted cause the index doesn't hash, then your situation's hopeless and your system's gonna crash!!
If the label on the cable on the table at your house says the network is connected to the button on your mouse, but your packets want to tunnel to another protocol, that's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall, and your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss, so your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse; then you may as well reboot and go out with a bang, 'cuz sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna hang!
When the copy of your floppy's getting sloppy in the disk, and the macro code instructions cause unnecessary risk, then you'll have to flash the memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM.
Quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your Mom!

all i can hear properly is 'cest... l'amous heureux'. oh well. nvm about it:) anyone has any french songs to introduce to me?:)
i'm feeling sleepy. very sleepy. going off to sleep later. ohohohohoh...i bought a hamster wheel for clover today! (finally!) i mean, yeah, i did buy one for her when i started taking care of her...but she seems to have outgrew it...'cos all that she has done these days was to get on the wheel, sit on it happily and look around her. *grInz*:) that's why i had to take her out and let her run on the bed everyday. now i hope she'll have fun with the wheel (and that it won't creak)
waltz was really funny. rather amusing...i've thought that it consisted of twirling and dancing around in squares...but apparently it involves something more than that as well. hahahaa:) rumin's a nice dance partner, she doesn't stand too near and doesn't stand too far. we learned till the switching of partners part...oh wellz, i guess that's all that we can learn till...considering that we have no more dance lessons. rumin says that i should go over to her house for one whole day after the exams to learn to play the piano... or give me a course on music appreciation (different eras and such apparently, interesting.)
i'm broke. terribly broke. oh well. and there's tomorrow's 'after-chem' lunch as well...i wonder if we do still have that though. 'cos sam called and the people say they don't deliver the dishes. how crap. i suggested getting pizza once again...and they were still talking about it (sam asking shauna for the pizza thingie) when qingz, yingxin, wanling, sze, weezi and i went to coro to eat. i'm broke. absolutely broke:) *grInz* so amusing.
ever since the tidying of the files for the last two days, i have developed a fondness for tidiness. the slight mess still present around me is disturbing me slightly.
and i'm perturbed by the haze... i hope i don't develop a cough or a sore throat before the O level orals:) heh:) if there isn't any cough or sore throat or loss of voice, it'll be the first time ever!:) *beamz*

spent 11 mins and 3 seconds to finish checking all 16 e-mails. hahaha. including subscribing from five mailing lists. i am so proud of myself. and it was very nicely intersperced with checking of other people's blogs:) wonderful.
ooh. nina just called to say she feels unprepared for the english orals...going to school at 6.45am tomorrow. last few days for the opportunity to actually practice. i really hope i can get a good grade or something. all of my subjects...but it's getting so...hard. oh well:) from now on, i'd try not to give up:) *grInz* always easy to say...must fulfill what i say.
ooh. congratualate me...for my nine piles on the floor have been reduced to one teeny weeny one. the others are properly in files! *grInz* i am so happy with myself. to the extent of praising myself a lot soon. uh-oh. too much self-praise. hahaha:) nvm about that:) test me on the colour of salts! and the solutions:) and everything to do with QA and VA:) thankz:)
i see the joy in work nowadays... and the bore in relaxing. how about becoming a workaholic? it'll fit in nicely with the exams:) hahaha. nah. don't think so. too much work and no play makes tomorrow a boring day.
today was fun though:) though, as i've said, i felt like we rather slacked a tad. perhaps we can be more focused next time:) hahaha. at least i've learnt. it's good to learn. and studying's definitely better than working. trust those who have actually worked. really terrible feeling to have nothing to learn:)
going off to bathe...then finishing up on the tidying...then going to finish up comprehension..then going to sleep for tomorrow's orals. let's generate topics. amusing experience. give me an amusing experience.

"Whoever you are, there is some younger person who thinks you are perfect. There is some work that will never be done if you don't do it. There is someone who would miss you if you were gone. There is a place that you alone can fill." - Jacob M. Braude
9.15pm..and i'm still studying up the whole room...without much success i must add...'cos i've only tidied the underneath of my table, moved the whole pile of worksheets on the extreme right of my table to the floor, sorted the worksheets out...and packed my chem file. looks like i have most of her notes afterall. heh:) and my colourful salts notes...i thought i lost them last year. ah wellz.
i'm sure when worst comes to worst, i'll lock the room and do everything in the living room. and my sister's not clearing her side of the room..so it's going to be extremely messy anyway. how nice. i'm glad there's nothing in the living room.
*grInz*
and i'm still unsubscribing from 20++ mailing lists. rather irritating i tell ya. luckily i'm in a good mood. hahaha:) i don't know why either...normally i'd get really annoyed if my room's in a mess(normally it is also...but then it'll be in a piley mess)..'cos i'd start sneezing non-stop and my skin will be itchy from the dust and everything else...and tonight my mum's in a extremely bad mood and i'm having a whole bunch of lousy mailing lists sending me stuff...*haha* but i still feel happy:) and my lousy sister just yelled at me when i told her i needed the living room table for tomorrow.
ah crap her. i shall change the sawdust for clover later:)
oh cool. trace just called to say she and yingxin will be coming over. hahaha. two people who have never been to my house before. hey. that means i can't really lock up my room afterall. can i?:) oooh. yingxin won't have any excuse for me to not go over to her house now..for me and qingz rather...'cos she'll have been to my house:) hehehee:) i grin:) hahaha.
i don't think i know how to be a host properly...even for a study session. ah wellz. there's always time to learn:) going to tidy my room again...probably won't be able to finish till like...2 am or something.
interesting. let me have a nice dream tonight then:)

'what makes you different (makes you beautiful)' - backstreet boys

you don't run with the crowd, you go your own way
you don't play after dark, you light up my day,
got your own kind of style that sets you apart,
baby that's why you captured my heart.
i know sometimes you feel like you don't fit in,
and this world doesn't know what you have within,
when i look at you, i see something rare,
a rose that can grow anywhere,
and there's no one i know that can compare

CHORUS
what makes you different(makes you beautiful)
what's there inside you shines through to me
in your eyes i see all the love i'll ever need
what makes you different(makes you beautiful)
to me

you got something so real, you touched me so deep
so come as you are, you got nothing to prove,
you won me with all that you do,
and i wanna say to you

CHORUS

you don't know, how you touched my life,
oh, in so many ways i just can't describe
you taught me what love is supposed to be
you saw the little things that made you beautiful to me
so beautiful, yeah yeah
what makes you....

CHORUS

so beautiful
shinin' shinin'
oh, you're beautiful
to me

what did miss lee say?
oh yah. she said something like 'you've gotta have mental strength also...don't later she go and ... you also follow her and ...'
time to put up the five nevers in my life.
-i'll never change my nationality.
-i'll never change my religion.
-i'll never hurt myself.
-i'll never do anything against my morals.
-i'll never hate.
ahz. comics!:)

no inspiration to blog today...*grInz*:) just that i find it funny when people asks ME if i'm alright. if i'm not, i'll tell you. or show it in the most obvious ways. like... perhaps, biting your head off?:)
*yumyum*
kiddinG!:):):)

ah trace, thankz for preventing my guestbook from rotting:) *beamz*
crazy things are constantly happening. it's what makes my life interesting...and well, any new information you know about your friend will bring you closer to what the person is like. rightz?:) right.
forgot to mention that miss choo seems interested in the idea of ...blogs. oh yeah...and we were talking about miss lau today as well...hahaa. come to think of it, we had a very nice conversation period with the stress of having to worry much:) cool.

just downloaded 'i am cow'... surprisingly the group who sang the song has a very funny name... they call themselves the 'arrogant worms'...when i first saw the name, i thought it wasn't the song...ah wellz, turns out to be the right one. what a strange name. i certainly don't wish for the team to be called the 'arrogant worms' in the future. hahaha:)
we had a very nice talk with miss choo after the oral practice...we were just talking about dreams and all that stuff:) quite cool actually... to hear about other people's dreams. what incubus and succubus (or however it's spelled) that's believed to go around killing you or raping you in the sleep. how freaky. oh yeah! miss choo has her dreams in monochrome as well! hahahaa:) and i told her about the dream which i was unsure of whether it is a dream or not...the one that has her yelling at me 'but it's your name! proctor died to save his name!'...i have a feeling i wrote this down before:) oh wellz:) she laughed really hard when she heard it. well, the whole class laughed. miss choo offered to make the dream come true. ehz, no thankz. ooh. here's what she commented...'at least you didn't go to the gallows for it'
and she and laoshi are going to hongkong in SEPTEMBER! when we're HAVING OUR PRELIMS. AARGH. asked them to help me buy shorts:) *grInz*:)
oooh. the first three notes of 'i am cow' sounds the first three notes of the first stanza of 'ai xiang shui':) the part which starts with 'bie xiang ni, ren bu zhu wo ti xing zi ji'
oh yeah. i came online to blog that i'm not going to blog for the next two days or so...not coming online anywayz ...going to start reducing my internet hours (slowly...one shouldn't rush things:)...one's 'cos of the close proximity to the excruciating exams, the other 'cos my phone bill came in over $100 today. for the internet line anywayz. for the last month. 'cos both me and my sis have been extensively using it. oh wellz:)

ahz. lena marlin's 'sitting down here' just finished downloading itself:)

hmmz. i wonder why would anyone want to murder another person. so crazy.
- my hands are small i know but they're not yours they are my own
and i am never broken
in the end, only kindness matters
in the end, only kindness matters
i will get down on my knees and i will pray -

5 entries! i wrote 5 entries yesterday. how many got posted? only 2! geez. and the other three are so much more important. so much more...
you know what? i feel that the Radio Rumble thingie is getting really...cruel. i mean...for a 2 day concert... izzit worth it? okay,fine. so there are 22 + bands that are going to be there... and yeah, it's probably expensive it one should buy a ticket to the concert... BUT. is all that worth it to expose yourself on radio, to allow everyone else to know how mean one can be... to have to face up to everyone else' glances the next time you go out on the streets...or to be known for something bad even before you are that person's friend? it's really cruel. and though it's nice to listen to them talk about stuff (eg. if you are chased by a group of people, would you sacrifice yourself or daniel ong?) , i feel that it's really mean. the whole game anyway. no wonder it's called reality radio. how creepy.
ah crap. imagine if we really get into a working environment with a lot office politics. that's why it's good to be a receptionist (not that much office politics and you seldom get retrenched) or a psychologist. hahaha. even teachers in school face with office politics.
-this is the story of a girl
who cried a river and drowned the whole world
while she looks so sad in photographs
i absolutely love her, when she smiles-
hahaha. such exaggeration:) nice song as well, haven't heard it for a long time:)
physics is crap. really crap. i hope i won't flunk it.
on the other hand, biolody. hahahaa:) manz. biolody. sheesh. biology:)
i had 33 out of 38! *grInz* for mcq that is. all thankz to mackean. structured is really lousy. only had 23...and i wonder how much it's upon. oh well. if it's upon 50, i'd have failed it. oh wellz. so crazed. mcq is 'good' while structured is 'bad'. (quoted from miss lee)
-you're the one i depend on when my world is going wrong- who do i depend on?
it seems that most parents listen to 95.8fm. strange. my parents don't listen to the radio. so oh well.
anyway, i predict that Rossaimi and Nina will be the last two competing. and i predict that Rossaimi will go to the concert.
it's all just a prediction:)

ahz. i forgot what i was going to say. typed out a whole bunch of stuff just now...with a nice story of how australia scientists are proving that Einstein's theory is getting wrong... with a nice funny lil' comic... but i pressed the close button up there before i could even do anything (more specifically post and publish) hahaha:)
oh yeah! i was promoting corn:) eat corn everyone! it has some sort of dunno-wat-acid that's supposed to do something against cancer. ah wellz. can't really remember:):):) anyway, the bottom line is, eat corn!:) hahaha:)

ah. in school now:)
this statement is first made by me, aided by qing and shall be offically published on the blog.
-my honesty will lead to my destruction-
we were just talking about whether it's better to live a lie throughout your life, to be safe from anyone trying to harm you through the truth that you have revealed, or to have your life destroyed by the revealing of the truth.
any comments?

"Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls." - Mother Teresa
ah. nice:) very nice indeed. everyone, share in my joy!:) *beamz* hahaha. stoichoimetry seems to easy now ...aargh. and ooh! i found miss lee for percentage yield today. sze told me she used to be a chem teacher. hahaha:) and miss lee didn't even tell me...she only said, 'i know a bit about percentage yield'
anyway, the main point is, i know how to do the mole conversion, ratio and percentage yield:) (hopefully)
and i've finally got the cyclones and the anticyclones right.
cyclones are when there's low pressure...then air goes in. if the air goes in in a clockwise direction, it's in the southern hemisphere. SCC. when it goes in in an anti-clockwise direction, it's in the northern hemisphere. NCA. yeah:)
as for anticyclones, they are high pressure systems, that's why the air goes out. if it's going out in an anti-clockwise direction, it's in the southern hemisphere. SAA. if it's going out in a clockwise direction, it's in the northern hemisphere. NAC.
oh wellz, as long as the wind direction and the place is correct. that's all that we've to learn anywayz:) oh yah, and ITCZ follows the summer:) wonderful.
i am so proud of myself. hahaha. shall finish up the last part of matrixes today. then move on to permutation and combination. i am absolutely baffled when it comes to combination and permutation. then it's vectors. i hope i can still remember how to do vector velocity. is that the name? my memory fails me.
was being extra terrible by refusing to run the 2.4km (well, we did tell her that we didn't have to go for the cross-country anymore:)... oh wellz, i suspect that she made the whole class run to motivate rumin and shauna...so that they will run. 'cos they need the scores. anyway, the point is, about 3/4 of the class didn't run that much...except perhaps for trace, grace and qingz...
ooh. i quote kevin on what he says while trying to guess my surname (that lousy person knows my surname! just refused to say it)
K' (6:10 PM) :
maye im going off on a TAN gent
crap.
heh:) i think i'm quite lucky. i have a real sister, an outside brother who still will greet me when i meet him on the streets (kok rui), okay, maybe not on the streets, in the swimming pool (haha), an outside sister in the band section of st nich's (yuan ling), a godmother (in heaven) and a wonderful human pet (tracy):)
human pet sounds degrading... i shall think of a nice name soon:)
ah. now i'm known as cheese to two people, to piggy and to ej. how nice:)

i know it to the core-
oh geez. what sorta song is that. nvm:) some crap stuff done up in 30 seconds. hahaha:) *grInz* sheesh man. miss ng made the whole process sound so difficult...when it's actually quite easy. oh wellz:) sparknotes rule rather!:):):) *grInz* never thought that it'll actually help me. of course, some stuff we still need teachers. ah wellz:)

" A little science estranges a man from God, a lot of science brings him back" - Sir Francis Bacon
luke amuses me. he just msned me asking if i need help with a guy ('cos of the song lyric i put as my nick) hahahaa:) i am so amused. oh. poor guy. looks like he's the one with the relationship problem. poor thing. seems like he and this girl are very close friends, and nearly got to the stage where they are more than friends, but then, *poof*, friend found bf. so now he doesn't know what to do. all that he's doing is to wait for time to see if their relationship will go on or not, and if his feelings will fade.
- all this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me- says:
i just haVe this notion that people seem to disappear into nonexistence at aGe 20
- all this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me- says:

ooh. guess what? i'm researching on stoichiometry:) haha. i'm going to flunk my chem. wonderful, brilliant, what a thrilling prospect.

ah. another nice song from 1998:) *grInz* music starts out really beautifully, slowly as well (okay,maybe not slow, i like the way they actually combine rain sounds with the sound of some instrument, then it goes into dancey music. the one chorus is slow as well:)...though i'd recommend it for the music, not for the singing and the lyrics though. not a bad song:)
Steps 'One For Sorrow'

I wanted your love,
But look what it's done to me,
All my dreams have come to nothing,
Who would have believed?
All the laughter that we shared would be a memory,
I cannot count the tears you've cost me,
If I could have seen.

And do you ever think of me,
And how we used to be?

chorus: Oh, I know you're somewhere else right now,
And loving someone else no doubt,
Well I'm one for sorrow,
Ain't it too too bad?
Are you breaking someone else's heart?
'Cos you're taking my love where you are,
Well I'm one for sorrow,
Ain't it too too bad about us,

I wanted your love,
But I got uncertainty,
I tried so hard to understand you,
All the good it did me,
Now the places that we knew,
Remind me of how we were,
Everything is just the same,
But all I feel is hurt,
And do you ever think of me,
And how we used to be?

chorus x3

my sneezing fit has decided to reside in my body for a while...i don't particularly welcome it though.
stupid glenn ong. he went 'i guess lance bass can only go out to sea...i mean, if he goes sea diving, he'll be called sea bass'. crapcrapcrap.
i've finally gotten why people call football a game whereby 'a bunch of boys scramble fanatically after a ball' *grInz* very amusing. not only do they scramble, they'll trip over each other and then proceed to miss the ball altogether. 8 of them. hahahaa.so funny. from liverpool as well. i am thoroughly amused.

got these two stories from
Cows Adopt A Piglet
A wild pig orphaned when hunters killed its mother has found a new family -- with a herd of cows where he is suckling happily in northern France. "He arrived in early spring. He's got a warm welcome from the cows," said cattle farmer Andre Vieillard. The young boar, about 10 months old, was taking milk but the cows had to lie down to make sure he could feed, Vieillard said. "Apparently he is happy here and, as far as I'm concerned, will stay with the herd until September," said Vieillard, who is rapidly becoming a celebrity in the village of Fleury-la-Foet along with the piglet and its adoptive family.

Driving Can Be Astrologically Challenging
An insurance company did a study that ranked car accident claimants by star sign, found the most accident-prone was the Gemini, followed by Taurus and then Pisces. The light-hearted study was based on 160,000 car accident insurance claims received over the past three years. The company listed car accident claims by star sign as follows, with the most accident-prone at the beginning: Gemini, Taurus, Pisces, Virgo, Cancer, Aquarius, Aries, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Scorpio, Capricorn.

urgh. sneezing fit. urgh.
ah yes! i'm going to present my hypothsized model on how a relationship goes (non-platonic relationship)- extremely basic model as well:
stage 1 (hahahaha, reminds me of that person's model of development, yes, anyway, stage 1):
you see something new, interesting, intriguing, attractive about that person (be it a new or old friend) which triggers off this admiration in your heart. this admiration grows.
stage 2:
you enjoy the person's presence. trust develops. you get closer to the other person, learning stuff about him/her, slowly weaving yourself more and more into his/her life.
stage 3:
emotions get more intense. perhaps an uplifting of spirits when the person's around, perhaps the burst of energy to do what the other person wants to do as well even when one's feeling fatiqued. feel sad when the person feels sad. you wonder if there's anything more you can give to this relationship.
stage 4:
well, every graph will reach a peak and come down. stage 4 sees that you're getting a bit burned out from spending a lot of effort into keeping this relationship growing. have you perhaps given too much while in stage 3? not received enough? you keep it going anyway, believing that this is only a short phase which will pass soon.
stage 5:
slowly, you see the bad points of the person...you wonder, what's so good about the person which has attracted you in the first place? (that's why they say love is blind...blind in the first few stages anyway) this stage shows us a test of your faith in the relationship and the person. most couples break out here. crushes die off as well. it tests the depth of your love as well. is your love only based on superficial qualities?
stage 6:
peaceful peaceful. the passion at first is gone, but can be easily built up again, this time with the foundation of trust and commitment. at this stage, most people would have matured, in the ways of building a relationship and keeping it true.

Astronomers and amateur comet watchers alike are excited about the upcoming Perseid meteor shower as Earth begins a three-day trek through a particularly dusty section of space.
The annual voyage is marked by shooting stars streaking across the pre-dawn skies.
The summer peak will be in the early morning hours Monday and Tuesday and is expected to be more intense than usual as Earth plows through a portion of the sky littered with rocky debris from Comet Swift-Tuttle, which is disintegrating slowly as it orbits the sun.
Space weatherman Bill Cooke at the Marshall space center said to expect a peak of about 150 meteorites an hour -- enough to delight sky-watchers but not too intense to worry owners of expensive satellites, which could be damaged by a meteorite impact.

wonderfuL:) there's another piece of news about this person leaving a patient open on the operation table and went out for a deposit. stupid person. but it cost him his license. hah. poor person on the operation table. man. it's still the most stupid thing i've ever heard.
something i find really close to heart in darren's interview...*grInz*:)
HUGEmusic: Is there anything over the time of your career that, if given the opportunity, you would do over or differently?
Darren Hayes: I don't regret… that's the thing! I think that everything you do in your life happens to you for a reason and yeah we've all had uncomfortable moments in our lives and sad moments but they make you stronger and every step that I've made it has led to the next step and even if the next step you stood back and think well I'll do that differently next time and then you've learned that lesson. so even a mistake is helpful to me.
well, he voiced out how i feel. wonderful person:)
time's passing really slowly today. i feel as if i've been online for an eternity...ah wellz. shall go off. so boring. back to more geog notes again.

ah wellz.
can't post that blog.
so i've decided to post something else instead.
lisa sent this to meizhen, and meizhen sent it to me...
stupid comics:)

- beepbeepbeep, shalala, electronic lady,
just beam me and i'll be your virtual baby
just press yes and i'll be on your screen -
'electronic lady' - Marque
hahaha:) just switched on the radio and this song started playing. rather amusing song if you ask me:) dance songs are just so...happy. ahz. they're playing 'out of my heart' by bbmak now:)
- i feel fine now the rain is gone and the sun has come to shine
nothing can get me down today -
i have the song on my comp:) the music didn't sound cheerful enough...now that i listen properly to the music. hmmz. it sounds brighter:) hah. oh wellz:) typing out summarized geog notes now. doing a summary of every topic. it's the geog day today:):):)
-take a look at the sky, feel the sun shine
in your heart, in your head, in your own time-
ah yes. adios amigos:)

"Faith is believing in something even though common sense tells you not to." - Darren Hayes
*grInz*. so interesting. 'i miss you' is going to be the next single to be released in the U.S. he seems to have been releasing all sorts of different singles in all parts of the world. who knows... he may be releasing 'creeping up on you' the next time he visits asia. :):):) oh manz. Tiara's going to Vancouver to see alicia keys live. how lucky:) hahaa:)
-feel your breeze, anytime anywhere in my heart-
i've just realised that i don't have much really happy (funny-sounding) songs in my computer...i mean, it has a wide variety of stuff, ranging from classical to rap to heavy metal (just one or two:), disney songs, french songs, christmas songs, crazy remixes, piano pieces ...but among these songs, only about less than 40 of them sounds nice and amusing and cheer people up:) i shall go search for more crazy-happy songs:)
happy birthday Singapore!

by the way, those are the lyrics to E17 songs:)
the shorter one being one of the songs they wrote for their daughters:) such nice people:)
reading 'murder in mesopotamia' by agatha christie now...haha:) it's rather interesting actually..'cos it's from the view of a nurse...who was supposed to be taking care of this lady who suffers from 'terrifying hallucinations' *grInz* what's amusing about it is that the nurse is rather...well, human. critical of people and everything else. and some of her actions. in the meantime, you can note the seriousness in which she treats situations and such:) a rather nice book that allows you to see from another person's point of view:)
speaking of points of view... well, it's really so true that when you're sad, you zero in onto depressing items...and this makes everything worse. but when you're happy (like me right now, haha:) you find that many things you were upset about seem a tad trivial. and then u can be more amused over it:)
was teaching myself how to properly read the scores and everything today...from this book for beginners for piano or something. haha:) the very beginning:) when you learn to play 'cde, edc, cdef, fedc, cdefgfedc' for the right hand and 'cba, abc, cbag, fabc, cbagfgabc' for the left hand:) *grInz* couldn't really figure out how to read the scores for the left hand once i read another score book...until i got out of sze's house and it dawned on me how to read it. how stupid of me:)
celebrated miss lee's birthday today...she sincerely believed we wanted a bio remedial. hahhaa:) then she seemed rather delighted when we sang her the happy birthday song and gave her the quiche and card and stuff:)
*grInz* we have such interesting teachers:):):)

- and the day that you came
i saw with my eyes
the prettiest girl
that came in my life,
makes me wanna stop, baby,
i can't stop loving you -

- have you heard of the saying,
for those who were playing,
you don't know what you've got till it's gone
well, that was my calling
i knew i was falling
into something that would be so wrong
but i caught hold of myself
and changed for the better
i can't get you out of my mind
'cos something inside
made me realise you were fine.

chorus: each time we were alone,
i guess i didn't know
how far we were apart
shouldn't have spoken to my heart
i guess i didn't know
that each time u go away i'd cry
i can't take all these goodbyes

i know from this feeling
deep inside there's a healing
i know that i'm in control
everyday i am yearning
this love i feel burning
buring right through my soul
so let's make a start
of something that cannot be broken
the mould is so strong
treat this love as child
that grows into something worthwhile

chorus

deep, love so deep, deep, love so deep, yeah
i can't take all these goodbyes
faithfully, i will be, you will see, please believe me
i can't take all these goodbyes

chorus

'You are cordially invited to our next One In Ten networking session on August 15th, Thursday.'
nah, not free. not a business person either. wait till i get older. hahaha:)
i've just realised why it's One In Ten. 'cos of the statistics showing that every one in ten will be different. another one in ten different in another way. so every two in Ten will be different:) interesting. never noticed till now.
i quote from yileng... her comment about reading my blog:) 'brings inter-personal relations closer.' how nice:) don't think i'll be writing too much about reflections these days though...prob will turn into a daily regurgitation of what i did:) heh.
[we will keep to our principals, uphold our morals and never compromise our integrity]
someone tell me where holland village is! i've never been there before. so sad.
fungi's strange today. fengyi! did u hear that? you're strange today:) *grInz*
mrs yong was very funny today. she kept asking me about what i eat. like for eg, did i eat properly, did i eat breakfast...apparently she's trying to find out what i'm eating that's causing me to be unable to concentrate... oh yah. she asked me if i ate chocolate as well. amusing teacher i have:) i lost six beautiful marks 'cos i saw part of the equation as (x-2) instead of (x+2)... and sincerely believed so until i've realised my mistake this morning.
she says i'm too stressed. and that it's hindering my ability to perform.
that aside,
i feel rather contented:) hahaha. i've finally got both of the songs which first had me hooked on chinese and english songs... 'dan xiao gui' by gigi leung and 'all i want is you' by 911:)

- the music you were playing really blew my mind,
it was love at first sight -
yeah it's kylie. it just appeared on radio you see:)
- xin1 zai4 fei1, lu4 heng3 chang2, wo3 men shi4 bi2 ci3 de bi2 feng1 gang3
ting1 zhe ni3 (kan4 zhe ni3) liu2 dao4 cong2 qian2 he2 wei4 lai4
ni3 xin1 li3 suo3 you2 de meng4 gan3 wo3 heng2 xiang3
oh you light up my life, suo3 yi3 wo3 ye3 xi1 wang4, wo3 men xin1 zhong1 ding4 lu4 dou1 yi2 yang4-
that, by the way, is 'lian ai ping lu' by andy hui and evonne hsu. another one of those love duets:) this one's really nice and cheerful and happy though:) i strongly recommend it:) though the female's voice reminds me of someone:)

whoa. darren's dad's in his crush(1980 me) music video:) interestinG:)
a small part from the whole long show on Channel V that he did...solving relationships problems and such...:) hahaha...he's so funny throughout the whole thing it amuses me.
Jabba: "Carol has come from a long way away .... we've got to move on, but ... Carol does have a relationship problem, a serious one.
Jabba: "Thanks for calling Jill."
Darren turns to face Carol who is sitting on stage behind him.
C: "Well, it's very hard to talk about, it's very sad ... um." (She fans herself and pretends to be upset)
D: "Can we get a tissue please?"
C: "Like, I've been best friends with this guy for a very very long time."
Darren gets up and sits on Carol's Knee.
C: (Rather surprised and not sure what to do) Oh Ok! (Darren cuddles her) Oh Ok, even better I tell you.... for a very very long time
(Darren moves around a bit) Oh Ok.
D:(Pats her head) "It's OK."
J: "I think your easing the pain away Darren."
D "It's Ok, talk to me."
Carol has her arms around him.
C: "Um ... well ... (laughs) We've been best friends for ages but I want to push this relationship further, um and you know he just wants to be friends.
D: "Yeah, I know."
C: "It's hard, should I get over him or should I fight for it?"
D: (Still on her knee) "The answer is pornography."

hah. there's something even worse in the earlier part of the show. but i'm not going to type it here. another quote from him
'it's a modern world' a lot of worse things. and he's so naughty it amuses me even more. scratching his ass in front of the screen indeed.
ooooh. just got a Special Report of Time from the post... it says "The Secret History" - nine months before 9/11, the U.S had a bold plan to attack al-Queda. It wasn't carried out until the towers fell. interesting.
we learn Waltz in dance class today. hahhaa. rather amusing:) rather nice as well. it's a messy kinda nice. i think i like waltz. haha:)
waltz always reminds me of 'anastasia'
- things my heart, used to know,
once upon a december -
eekz. stomachache.

i've officially lost my homework file... don't know what stuff is inside as well.
oh crap. my prelims exam schedule is in it. crap. and biology notes. and lit stuff. aaargh.
realised that i can't function well with any problems in any relationship. spent the first three lessons of the day getting nothing in, and being extra rude by not listening to the teachers, or not doing any work. (miss ng, mrs yong and miss choo). they seem to think that my blatant distraction is attributed to my distress over the loss of my homework file though.
-as the sun goes down waking up my dreams-
had a good laugh during geog lesson today...laughed for five minutes straight. stupid yun lahz. so crazy:) isobel remarked that it's good to have this kinda laugh once in a while, helps relieve any stress. yeah, i agree with her...just that it's very exhausting for the body:) mrs yak looked a tad puzzled at what we were doing though:)
got the 'go-forward' sign from Tiara and Cindy from the Asia street-team and the international street-team respectively. currently asking for what i have to do ...like to do i have to open up a yahoo group as well and that sorta stuff:) hah:)
finding miss lee for time-table scheduling with qing and jits tomorrow:)
i quote something funny from darren hayes:)-
'are you sure you want to see me naked? i'll get turned on...'

the pet shop boys

let me type down the lyrics of this song as well. beautiful songs must be shared.

(starts with beautiful music and choir singing hmm)
a ray of hope flickers in the sky
a tiny star lights up way up high
all across the land dawns a brand new morn
this comes to pass when a child is born

a silent wish sails the seven seas
the (what?oh)winds of change whispers in the trees
and the walls of doubt crumbled, tossed and torn
this comes to pass when a child is born

a rosy hue settles all around
you've gotta feel you're on solid ground
for a spell or two no one seems forlorn
this comes to pass when a child is born

spoken: and all of this happens, as the world is waiting for, waiting for one child. black, white, yellow, no one knows. the child will grow up to turn tears into laughter, hate to love, war to peace, everyone will be everyone's neighbour. misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten forever.

it's all a dream, an illusion now (right now)
it must come true sometime soon somehow (sometime) somehow
all across the land dawns a brand new morn
this comes to pass when a child is born

this comes to pass when a child is born
(choir singing when a child is born and repeats it)

sometimes i do dislike the net...or even the phone.
you can't feel the emotions or enjoy the presence of your friend being just there.
i prefer human touch. not the machines.
thankew.

there are only two people who inspire me in the daily life context.
each in a way have allowed me to explore more deeply within myself.
to understand how i truly feel.
to allow me to lessen any confusion i have during this period of growing up.
one just had her piano exam recently.
the other is going to have hers soon.

- another ditch in the road, keep moving
another stop sign, you keep moving on
and the years go by so fast
wonder how i'll ever make it through -
went to popular just now 'cos apparently the big bookshop's out of business. rather sad though. considering that they have rather nice stuff there:) went to buy files to put my going-to-be-made notes in:) and two more of the jell-pop pens. wanted to buy a CD actually...but then i went to order the popular student card on impulse:) haha:) so yeah. no CD. might as well.
then naturally i went home. saw another person with that nice hairstyle i mentioned in one of my previous entries...she was just standing in front of me..so i got quite a lot of time being an observor. hah:)
she was wearing a large red t-shirt and long baggy jeans with frayed ends, carrying a quiksilver bag and a roxy wallet, with accessories consisting of a silver necklace and three earrings.
and of course. that cool hairstyle. haha. oh yes i forgot. large clear eyes (really clear) and beautiful eyelashes. they're not too long..and not too thick...but somehow they stand out and in turn enhance the beauty and clarity of her eyes.
nice features as well. when i saw the front view of her when she went to take the seat behind me.
nice-looking people brighten my day. hahaha. and inspire me. don't ask me why:)

everything's getting to me these days. and biological analysis would tell you that i'm not supposed to feel that. geez man.
what the crap. if anyone just bothers me tomorrow i'm going to snap.
especially to a few particular people.
snapsnapsnapsnapsnap.
*chomp*
*chewchew*
*swallow*
*glopglopglop*
i feel better now:)

tracy is right.
it's comforting to go back to old friendships...to rely on closer friends you've made from the past.
'cos one feels more secure and acts more naturally.
why so? i don't know about others.
but for me, it's 'cos that i feel that they don't judge me. that they do naturally accept you, and every part of you, inclusive of the flaws you may have.
there are some people who do that naturally (give others a sense of security...) such as yingxin, isobel, hui qing, jitsy, michelle, rumin, guan and yileng.
i don't know if i do come across as someone who doesn't judge others... hopefully so.
for a few people, you just can't help feeling that they seem a bit smug sometimes. it makes one feel uncomfortable...and it's very tiring to act as if it's okay, to humour everyone and pretend that you don't mind when they make fun of you in front of other people. and it gets more and more difficult as everything piles up.
a small joke at the beginning... one won't mind. just something to pass the time by. something to lighten up any bad situation, to allow others to be amused and the atmosphere to be lighter. once it continues, it starts to sting. and then it hurts. badly.
i guess it's part of my own fault. i never said that i minded.
if i could treat this world as a mere resting spot. i would choose to leave it now.
allow me to remember nothing of this world.

hahahaha:)
we won afterall:) beautifuL:)
11-4 in the last game. would have expected better from the same person who won the gold for us in the women's singles though:) but nevertheless, we won:)
dad challenged me to a game... hah. he didn't quite believe that i trained for table tennis before. hah. we shall see.
darren hayes sound more whatyacallit..ehz... rough (the texture of his voice i mean) when he's in savage garden...and smoother when he sings as darren hayes. interesting:)

crapcrapcrapcrap.
stupid new zealand team caught up with us. what the crap. now they've won one game and we have two. just now was so scary... manz...how can singapore not hit the stupid table BOTH TIMES? i don't get it!!! aargh.
we could have won that stupid game. then we would have won against new zealand. instead of wasting energy on ANOTHER GAME.
crap.

i can't guarantee that the lyrics are correct...'cos they came from my memory...from primary five:)
ooh.. just realised that i've missed out quite a lot of the back...the repetitive thingie of -all i want is you- and such.
oh yeah. remind me to ask miss lee where the mesocarp and endocarp of the kiwi is...they seem to be all fused together. strange. and what's the name for the storage thingie for the dicotyledon plant again? ehz, endosperm (izzit?) for monocot plant... then what's it for dicot plants? oh no. i can't remember.
watching the commonwealth games now. women's doubles (singapore against new zealand) first match as 11-3 (us winning of course:) haha. the new zealand people were so nervous that they couldn't even start the ball properly, much less counter the slow ball that came over the table...which i'm sure that most people who had taken table tennis before would have gotten easily. it's a stupid mistake to make if you ask me. they did some other stupid stuff as well. if my former table tennis teacher saw it rightz, he'll scream.
went on a fruit craze today...went to the supermarket and bought all sorts of fruits. haha. ah wellz. nvm, going back! cyaz!:)

ah crapz. mum just calmly reminded me that dad wanted to get me one but i refused at that time and said i'll wait till JC.
nevermind. i didn't mean to start my blog with that:) heh...
downloading 'all i want is you' by 911 now... from 1997:) been looking for that song for so long okay. well, i wanted to buy the CD for that song (found a copy of the CD at Sembawang Music something this march) but then well, ahz. financial difficulties. yeah, that shall be the reason:) *grInz*:) so now i'm finally able to listen to the song again after an eternity. i'm so delighted:) it goes like thus:
- baby i've tried but, i can't help myself
can't discuss the way i feel inside,
i'm falling, so helplessly it's true.
i close my eyes, and believe completely that
i can feel you touching my skin so tenderly
come morning light,
it's the victim of fantasy.

everytime i open my eyes,
you just disappear you say goodbye
baby i'll do anything to make you mine,
oh it's true.

chorus:)- all i want is you (i'll give my heart and soul)
all i want is you (i'll be there when you call)
all i wanna do, is making love to you
all i want is you, all i want is you.

i can't sleep till, the last star leaves the sky
with every beat of my heart wanna make you mine
i'm praying you feel the same way too

tell me that you'll hear my call tonight
only you can bring this dream to life
baby i'd do anything to make you mine,
oh it's true.

chorus

all you've gotta do is believe
in me, you'll find your santuary (loves the way they pronounced sanctuary..haha:)
just one chance is all i need
to prove that you and i
are forever meant to be

(all i want is you, all i want is...)
all i want is you
(all i want is...)
all i wanna do is making love to you
all i want is you,
all i want is you.
(then nice music ends it off)

beautiful:)
let me post and publish first:)

ah wellz. will change the pixels of the below comic the next time i come on. going off to eat dinner. time is exactly 8pm:)

7.45pm...and my whole family is still at home... haven't eaten dinner. considering the measly chicken that i ate this afternoon, it's a wonder my stomach isn't grumbling yet:)... yeah, anywayz, i'm taking this moment to blog.
blasted the entire flat (or maybe just the people living directly above and under my house) with darren hayes just now:) hahaha...'cos i wanted to listen to his songs... then i wanted to bathe, so i thought, why not allow everyone the pleasure of listening to such a wonderful singer cum songwriter cum talented artiste as well:) *grInz* we should always share such jewels with people around us:)
i love lit!:) hahaha. i love analysing horror and humour. it comes clearly to me how the writer brings out the elements...unlike all other prose passages that i've done before. wonderful:) i hope this continues on though. the clarity i have while looking at relative velocity qns as well:) hopefully hopefully:)

wah scared me manz. i thought mum had an asthma attack or something. turns out that it's a bone stuck in her throat that she still can't get out. no vinegar in the house either. i told her to drink a lot of water. hope it works.
- do you remember you were a part of my life -
Oasis's 'wonderwall' is playing on 98.7fm right now...rather okay song i think..the orange piece of crap fungi is trying to make me jealous..that she has darren hayes's CD autographed with an additional heart and that i don't. *bonkz fungi*
i've just realised that michelle feels a lot like me. strange. or rather i feel a lot like michelle. extremely strange. i've never seen myself as being similar to michelle...totally different backgrounds you see:) and activities that we do. okay, maybe not totally different..but just not similar.
ah. that afroman song is playing. which reminds me:) i wanna download the song. hahaha:)
- so i ran, i jumped out through the window -
such a crazy song. oooh. now i know what it's called. 'crazy rap'. how nice:)
-and barely symphonic, but strangely ironic
moments contained in one glance
oh how i adored you, but now i'm ignored by you
nowhere a tint of romance-
mum's birthday's tomorrow... and i haven't brought a present yet. how crap. going out with my sister after school to buy the present... haven't yet decided the time though. perhaps we should just give mum a treat:) or something similar. i'm broke!
-are you where you want to be,
did you trade in all of your gold
did you trade it in, did you wait for love
or settled for somebody to hold-

Dear Xin,

I’m sorry you will be unable to join us at the 2002 International Society of Poets’ Summer Convention and Symposium in Washington, DC--the largest and most prestigious poetry event ever held. As you know, you were selected to be honored at this event, and we were looking forward to your presenting your poetic artistry in front of the more than 1900 poets from over 50 countries who will be attending.

However, because we don’t want you to miss out on this unique opportunity altogether, we have arranged a way for you and your poetic accomplishments to be a part of this event in a major way, without your actually being present. Although you will be unable to participate in the Convention contest (you must be present to win), you can receive all of the awards we have scheduled for you--including your custom engraved International Poet of Merit Silver Award Bowl (see it here), your bronze Commemorative Award Medallion, and your Full One Year Membership into the International Society of Poets for 2002-2003--if you will allow us to present one of your poems at the convention in your place.

We have arranged for professional poetry reader Alan Rose to read your poem at this largest gathering of poets in history. Mr. Rose’s dramatic baritone voice and imaginative style will give your poetry a dynamic flair, as well as the worldwide exposure and recognition that it deserves. Your poem will also be featured in printed form, proudly displayed in a special room at the convention that will be accessible to more than 2500 attending poets and guests.

And let me tell you a little about the actual awards that you will receive by mail immediately after you confirm your participation in this prestigious event by submitting your poem:

-- Your International Poet of Merit Silver Award Bowl (a $175.00 value) is a magnificent work of art in itself that measures over 10 inches across and over 10 inches high. It is handcrafted in silver and has your name custom-engraved on a beautiful cherry wood base. It is certain to enjoy a special place of pride in your home and will serve as a fitting symbol of your unique poetic artistry.

-- Your bronze Commemorative Award Medallion (a $40.00 value) is a deeply etched bronze medal brilliantly displayed on a 25 inch red, white and blue satin ribbon.

-- And your Full One Year Membership into the International Society of Poets for 2002-2003 (a $60.00 value) entitles you to a personalized membership card, an ISP patch and decal, entry into special contests during the year, and a subscription to The Poet's Corner quarterly magazine.

Xin, all that’s required for us to immediately send you all of these Awards is for you to submit a poem to be formally presented at the convention. Additionally, we must also ask you for the necessary funds ($169.00) to cover the costs of the time and effort required to present your poem before the convention attendees both aloud and in writing, as well as the costs incurred in insuring and shipping to you these extremely bulky and heavy awards.

Xin, we are, of course, ultimately most interested in meeting you and having you personally present your artistry in front of the thousands of other poets who attend these live events. Unfortunately, this is not to be the case at this time, so we’re trying to do the next best thing. But we sincerely hope to personally present you with your most deserved awards in the future.

Sincerely,
Steve Michaels
Convention Awards Chairperson

no thankew.

- 'cos baby half the fun is figuring it all out -
hmmz. my comps conking out on me everytime i try to post and publish a message:) do you think it's jealous of blogger? hahaa:)
The animals at the Shanghai Wildlife Park -- much like their human visitors -- are trying to keep cool during a scorching summer. China's Xinhua news agency reports while the Siberian tigers have taken to staying indoors, the black and brown bears schmooze with visitors, hoping for a cool drink to ease the heat. The news agency says each time a wheeled cart-full of visitors comes their way, the bears greet them by standing up on their hind legs, with two paws folded in front. The agency says tourists often are amused and offer the bears a drink -- but the bears are picky. They kick away bottles of tasteless mineral water and drink up every drop of Coke they can get. so interesting:)
shauna was so amusing today... acting out the scenes in meteor garden. manz. we've never thought that our class would actually imitate the characters in meteor garden. ah wellz. it's a kinda joke actually:)
i'm very amused by poetry.com... they seem to like sending e-mails to people who don't even reply to any of their letters or e-mails:) ah wellz. shall paste it here later:)
i quote the following from my diary:)
- treat your friends for what you know them to be, regard no surfaces. Consider not what they did, but in melody -
didn't realise that 'don't turn off the lights' have enrique screaming three times. how dreadful... but they softened the whole effect with soft female singing. ah:) 'you' is indeed a nice song:) grace agrees with me! *grInz*
oh yeah. remind me not to use any of the *grInz*, *haha* or *heh* in my friendly letter in the prelims or Os... i'm allowed to use :) though:)
