New York City - Full moon. Lovely~

YEA~ You guys probably think I'm dead or something.

It's been 4 months.

YES 4 whole months, you must've think I've been in a coma or something.

But the thing is, Sec 4 life, is seriously overwhelming.
The whole 4 months, I, too, was askin' myself when I was gonna revive this dead-ass blog.
But I think I shall better refresh this with a whole new post, and whole new music to showcase to all ya readers out there!
So, I've replaced Firework with Lady Gaga's live version of Born This Way. Her first live performance of the song at this year's Grammys.

Yeap, so what's new with me?

Constant mood fluctuations, roller coaster stress levels and overwhelming intake of work!
On the bright side (or sadder side, actually), I've already stepped down from Red Cross and the Student Council to dedicate the rest of the year to my studies. Yup, week 1 of being free (not really) just passed, there hasn't been much difference, actually.

The impact will probably kick in in another few weeks or so. ;D

Good news is, my Red Cross journey doesn't end here!

I've decided to join the Volunteer Instructors Programme (VIP) for Red Cross. That means, I'll undergo some more training and I'll come out as an instructor from the Headquarters. Which means, I still get to come back to the school even after I've graduated! Yeah, and I'll be helping out the unit as per normal. Except that, I think more responsibility will be instilled in me and the juniors will look up to me for advice and hardcore decision-making and *inhales* !!
But I guess, after training, I should come out as a stronger person than before. May god help me with that.

Enough about Red Cross, now let's talk STUDIES! Juggling 7 subjects, ain't an easy task. So is 8 subjects too. God bless my classmates who're taking Biology too. Yikes!
I am trying my best, although some of my teachers think I'm much too slack. They have no idea what I'm doing at home. But hopefully, may the results prove otherwise! I'm gonna need a lot of support for my 'O's. Oh my.

In the love department, heh, not gettin' any. Doesn't matter anyway! Main priority now is my studies! But I've been getting a lot of love from my close friends, I love them for that. I feel like I'm just so blessed to have met them. I cherish everyday I have with them. And I hope even after graduation, we all still see each other often. :))
May god bless my darlings, Christel, Philana, Travis, Desmond, Adeline, Casey, Eunice and everyone. I didn't mention their names but that's because I'm saving them for other times whereas their names can be displayed for better applaud. And those that were mentioned, doesn't mean I have no where else to name you, but because you guys are the first to pop up in my head.

Enough for tonight, I've got school later on today. Apparently it's 1:14AM! School starts in less than like, 7 hours! I better rush my ass to bed.

2011-01-03T01:01:00.000-08:00

Happy New Year, 2011 everyone!

I know I'm pretty late, but I've been busy alright?!
School is reopening tomorrow, I just managed to get all my homework done by today.
And I panicked every since it's no long 2010 anymore. So yea. Was busy.

Anyway, just to update on whatever's going on in my life right now.

I had 2 so-called major events that just passed. The Christmas Eve party and Sentosa outing aka last day of 2010.

I don't have much time to post about it yet, and pictures aren't with me so, can't post about it now. But all I can say for now is that, they were really the best days of my life. Really thankful to those who were there to share those sweet memories with me. Love you guys loads!

I gotta get mentally prepared for school tomorrow. And as you can already tell, I'm soo not ready. So, enjoy your last day of holiday guys!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Swallowtail Butterfly ~Ai no Uta~

止まった手のひら　ふるえてるの　躊躇して
この空の　青の青さに心細くなる
Suspended in mid-air, my hand trembled as I hesitated
This sky’s blueness makes me feel uneasy

信じるものすべて　ポケットにつめこんでから
夏草揺れる線路を　遠くまで歩いた
After placing everything I believe in into my pocket
I walked a long way on the tracks, summer grass swaying in the wind

心に　心に　傷みがあるの
遠くで蜃気楼　揺れて
There is a pain in my heart, in my heart
A mirage flickers in the distance

あなたは雲の影に　明日の夢を追いかけてた
私はうわの空で　別れを想った
You went to chase after your dreams for tomorrow behind the clouds
I absentmindedly thought back on our parting

汚れた世界に　悲しさは響いてない
どこかに通り過ぎてく　ただそれを待つだけ
Sadness won’t echo in this tainted world
I'm only waiting for something that I passed somewhere

体は　体で　素直になる
涙が止まらない　だけど
My body becomes honest through my body
And my tears won’t stop, but...

ここから何処へいっても
世界は夜を乗り越えていく
そしてあいのうたが　心に響きはじめる
No matter where I go from here on after
Night will pass in this world
And a love song will start to resound in my heart

ママのくつで　速く走れなかった
泣かない　裸足になった日も
I couldn’t run fast in my mother’s shoes
I won’t cry, even on the day I become barefoot

逆さに見てた地図さえ　もう　捨ててしまった
I have even thrown away the map that I used to hold upside-down

心に　心に　魔法があるの
嵐に翼ひろげ　飛ぶよ
There is magic in my heart, in my heart
I spread my wings as I face the storm and fly away

私はうわの空で　あなたのことを想い出したの
そしてあいのうたが　響きだして…
私はあいのうたで　あなたを探しはじめる
I absentmindedly thought of you
And a love song started to resound...
With this love song, I start to look for you

Hello people!

Yes, I know I haven't been blogging.
Nuffnang definitely isn't happy with that fact too. Heh.

I'm utterly sorry, I know my last post was in September. Which was awfully long ago.
I haven't had the time, and was really busy.

(Yeah, yeah, those of you who know my actual reason for not blogging, SHUT UP!)

I guess all I can announce is, I'm now 15 years of age. Yeah, I didn't blog on my birthday too, how sad.

I guess, I've become older. I've learnt a couple of new stuff. Especially in these few months.
Sorry teachers, it ain't anything education related thought.
Okay fine, I have learnt some good stuff in school. Yes yes. But I think what shines the most now is emotionally inclined lessons.

These past few weeks has been mighty challenging mentally for me. Couple of hiccups here and there, but I guess I managed to pull through.

One of the things about being me is that, I'm obsessive. Over-obsessive, actually. I'm also very emotional and take things to heart.

According to me being a female Scorpio (24/10 - 22/11) is that, we're blessed with the gift to analysize anything and everything. Given a piece of broken fact, we're probably able to think out the outcome and escetra. And I agree to a large extent that I HAVE this ability. But I ain't praisin' myself here.

I realized that I tend to over-analysize things, and bring whatever criticism it has onto myself. Which explains why I tend to get mad at certain comments posted anywhere, and assume that it was about me. So yeah, those who know about it, I'm sorry about that though.

So what I've learnt over these coupla weeks which I know I have to improve on myself is, (you can take these lessons and apply them on yourself as well, learn from my mistakes!)

1) Do not assume.
Assuming gets people angry sometimes. For my case, since I over-analysizes sometimes, I assume that things are or aren't my fault. One way or another, there are people are aren't too happy about that.
Answer: Check with people before assuming. Coming to a case where you have to assume, make sure the situation isn't too versatile before you assume. Assuming in smaller massed-situations is a lot safer.

2) Cut down on obsessiveness.
Obsessiveness is a horrible, I repeat, HORRIBLE trait. Especially if you're dealing with people who hate being tied down. These people are usually the ones who have bad tempers too, I don't mean to stereotype them, but that's just what I realize about most of them. So when they feel like they're being too tied down, they'll probably rip those emotional ropes of yours apart and give you a tight slap. Avoid that!
Answer: You know you're being obsessive when you just had to know what a person is thinking about ALL THE TIME. They have lives too. Try not to ask too much of them. If this person's short tempered, 1-2 questions about their days will be alright. If this person's alright, 4-5 will be good. Usually people kinda feels loved for a moment when you obsess a little. But they might feel tied down when it's too much. Be careful!

3) People have lives too.
This happens when while you're chatting with someone. It gets nice after a while, but if you sense the person kinda wants to push back, you'd better know what to do. They have lives too, and can't be there to talk to you 24/7. Know your and their limits.
Answer: Sense that they want a break, don't try to continue the conversation. It'll just upset the other party. You can usually sense when the person starts to lose interest and their replies tend to be short and quick. Like they're in the middle of a dilemma and you text them. Out of respect they make the effort to reply but are usually short due to short amounts of time. Please do not get angry at them if they lose interest. Remember, they're human too!

This is pretty much the main stuff I've learnt about communicating with people. This is in terms of making friends and building friendships. Please do not use this if it was your boss or something. I'll probably write tips about that if I get a job which requires me to constantly be in contact with my boss. :)

It's currently 1:34am on a Tuesday morning. And I have to get up early for my pilates. (Yeah, right.) Goodnight people! Have an awesome holiday!

Here are just some random words I felt like typing (or copying and pasting)　:

Japanese:

仕方のない恋で終わりたくない
初めて気付(きづ)いたよ
こんなに人を愛せるということ
些細な言葉でも
右へ左へ心がざわめく
背中を向けたあなたにならば
素直な気持ちを言えるのにな～
どうして？
本当はこんなに

仕方ない気持ちを伝えて．．．
私一人の言葉わ、
友達さん、本当に：

ありがとう。
大好きだよ。　（これのための隠された意味がある。　私はどうしてもそれを明らかにしたくない。）

English Translation:

I don’t want this to end as a hopeless love
This is the first time I’ve realized
That I can love someone this much
With trivial words
You make my heart swing left and right
If only I could speak honestly to you
Whose back is turned to me
How?

I express this unstoppable feeling…
Here are my own words:

Thank you.
I cared for you.

2010-08-08T06:53:00.000-07:00

HEY!

I figured I'd have time to blog for awhile.

Yup, tomorrow's the big day!

Nope I'm not getting married.

So yeah, obviously, it's National Day tomorrow.

As y'all know, I'll be in the parade. (Leading front somemore.)

Just wanna take this short amount of time to REMIND you guys.

Watch National Day and feel patriotic tomorrow, sing the songs proudly (especially the national anthem)

&& most importantly...

LOOK OUT FOR ME!! Thanks.

For JWSSRCY who's coming to watch us tomorrow, I love you so much! You guys are the bestest friends we'd all ever have!

kthxbye!

2010-07-24T08:46:00.000-07:00

Basically, I'm not dead.

I know I'm probably apologizing in every post, but I'M SORRY!

I know lah, my blog getting boring 'cos I never update, people dou wan come.

I have tight schedule every single day. hard to find time to update lah.

But anyway, since my last post was in June, yes, school started. For about a month already, yes I know I'm super duper late.

Nothing much happened so far, days passed real slowly, but I'm tryna enjoy every minute of it while it lasts. :)

Nothing much to say here too. So I'll update again when I've got something interesting to talk about, god knows when that'll be. :D

kthxbye

2010-06-06T02:01:00.001-07:00

Heyhey.

Just a real short update here.

First, a Welcome Back to Eunice, she just came back from Japan. I still can't believe you hated the food there!

Next, as you all know, I've been in NDP 2010 for quite some time now, we're already halfway through the rehearsals. Yesterday (5 June, Saturday), I left the house, forgetting all about sun block lotion, therefore I'm sunburned AGAIN. But not as bad as the first time though. So far, I'm loving the lunch that they serve us, NOT loving the snacks that they serve us. Every week, they pretty much serve the same thing. Every week, it's Old Chang Kee's curry puff and some kind of spring roll and a random packet drink. Knowing me, you'd know that I'll skip the curry puff. For lunch, yesterday we had K to the F to the C! But the chicken were spicy too so I ended up drinking until I was bloated, not finishing the food. The previous weeks they served us like, airplane food, but I'm guessing the foods' by SQ since they were damn nice. SQ must support their own country mah.

By the way, I should also add on, I'm really surprised by how well the Police contingent marches! Damn good, man! No, I don't mean NPCC the UG, I really mean POLICE! Was really shocked. Was a little disappointed by the army contingent though, was expecting them to be better. Maybe they'll show their flaws now, and during NDP, they'll be real awesome. I don't know, it can happen. :D

Overall, NDP is really fun, made new friends from other schools' RC representatives. Hating the fact that I'm pretty much the oldest there, majority of the people are Sec 2 and below. There's only 1 or 2 other people who are Sec 3 there, they all act immature anyway so I can't tell at first 'till I asked them omg.

Next week's our last week at Nee Soon Camp (NS training site), moving on to the Padang soon!

2010-05-16T02:16:00.000-07:00

The exams are finally over, so I now like to indulge in some dramas and music.
I remember watching Proposal Daisakusen, really a great drama. I encourage everyone to watch!
Other than the story, it has great songs inserted too.

So, as I went back to listen to the songs again, this one in particular touched my heart.
Screw the fact that it was performed by an old man, the song that is currently playing now, one that I love now. The lyrics made me fall in love with the song : :)

熱い涙や恋の叫びも
The warm tears and the cry of love
輝ける日はどこえ消えたの？
Where have those shinning days disappeared to?
明日もあてなき道を彷徨うなら
If tomorrow the road to our goal wanders off too
これ以上もとには戻れない
This unusual beginning will never come back

耳を澄ませば心の声は
Have I finished listening to the speeches
僕に何を語り掛けるだろう？
that the voice of my heart tells me ?
今は汚れた街の片隅にいて
Though I stand lost in this wet corner of town
あの頃の空を想うたびに
The sky then, I’ll remember every time

神より賜えし孤独やトラブル
God, let me be lonely and troubled
泣きたい時は泣きなよ
and able to cry when i need to
これが運命でしょうか？
Is this my fate ?
あきらめようか？
Should i give up ?
季節は巡る魔法のように
The season returns just like magic

Oh, baby. No, maybe.

「愛」失くして「情」も無い？
Is there no “feeling” too, without “love” ?
嘆くようなフリ
To grieve is to be free
世の中のせいにするだけ
That is this world’s only consequence

Oh, baby. You’re maybe.

「愛」無くして「楽」は無い
Without “love”, there can’t be “comfort”
幸せのFeeling
This happy feeling
抱きしめてOne more time.
I’ll embrace one more time

或りし日の己を愛するために
In the past, for the sake of love
想い出は美しくあるのさ
I had kept beautiful memories
遠い過去よりまだ見ぬ人生は
Beyond the distant past, the life we are yet to see
夢ひとつ叶えるためにある
has one dream which will make it come true

奇跡のドアを開けるのは誰？
Who will open the door of miracle?
微笑みよ　もう一度だけ
Just so you smile once again
君は気付くでしょうか？
Have you noticed ?
その鍵はもう
That the key
君の手のひらの上に
Is on the palm of your hand

Why baby? Oh, tell me.

「愛」失くして「憎」も無い
‘Without “love”, there is no “growth” too
見て見ないようなフリ
To not foresee is to be free
その身を守るため
In order to protect that vision

Oh, baby. You’re maybe.

もう少しの勝負じゃない！！
Not just a little game!!

Everyone , one by one whispers
そっと囁いているよ
softly into their hearts
「明日（あした）はれるかな・・・」
Will tomorrow be a clear day ?
遥か空の下
Under the distant sky …

2010-04-17T10:02:00.000-07:00

The exams' are coming. Is anyone getting excited yet?

I'm more terrified than excited.

I'm trying my very best to get ahead with the class. I hope everyone gives each other support!

And then, we can all do our best together and not have bullshit like, "It's every man for himself."

I know, I'm mentioning these things 'cause I'm feeling vulnerable now. Yes, I'm not afraid to admit it.

Our class should definitely help and support each other, but we all care about our own grades too much.

Or pretend that they care.

Just like a glass protector, they seem to be there to protect you, but their dishonesty can be seen through as clear as glass.

I want to shake off that incomplete and somewhat expected "I hesitated".

I want to send out my voice, I want to speak.

Despite the hardship, I want to live with all my might!

Or something a little more like

Trust is like a mirror, you can fix it if it's broken.

But you can still see crack in that motherfucker reflection.

Sorry for having to let y'all read a post of mine, in a state where I feel horrible.
But I think our class have some problems in terms of how bonded we are, which will result in the kind of teamwork that we'll have. I hope if any of the people in the class reads this, they won't feel hurt and call me a bitch. I'm sure there are some people in the class who feel the same way.

I'm not clearly not blaming anyone, especially not the chairperson nor the form teacher, about the class. It's something that the whole class should resolve together.

Okay, after this, people will probably start calling me a 'bitch', and this post 'bullshit'.

Sorry again. And I wish everyone all the best for their upcoming exams.
I need all the luck I can get. D:

2010-04-01T08:04:00.000-07:00

kthxbye

HI!

It's the 6th of March, the long-awaited Footdrill Competition.

Since it's so late at night, shall keep this post short, but have loads of pictures.

So, this morning, I dragged my tired, fabulous ass outta bed at 6 AM. Rushed and got ready by 6:30AM and managed to reach school at 7 AM.

But we weren't leaving the school 'till FDC has had their breakfast, so we watched them all have their corn flakes in milo. (Yes, it's making me hungry too.)

As supporters, we really DID support. Their bags I mean. Yes, throughout the whole day, we supported their bags until the end of the day when they'd have to change back. (I'm not complaining, just mentioning what we've done to support them.)

Up the bus, off to RI. (Yes, the campus was very handsome. Jealous of their facilities, LOL.)

National FootDrill Competition. Took this banner so that my parents were convinced I WAS at the competition and not hanging around in JP. :D

Thumbs up!

All looking very nervous...

The Sirs and Ma'ams sitting behind us, mainly for the shade. :D

Put Lifah trying to take my picture here.

Put Chandra playing with green, candy string here.

Group photo! Can you spot the odd one out?

Can you still spot the odd one out?

The trophies. Sorry for the low quality, it's clearly zoomed cos my seat was pretty far away. But it's pretty okay, right?

The judges proceeding to their individual spaces.

After a pretty long wait, they finally arrive!

Sorry for the butt shot, I actually took a video of their performance first before snapping this, okay?

Ah, they turned around!

Looking very smart here!

To watch the FULL footage of their drills, the video SHOULD be here:

After the results, yes I know I skipped alot, we went to the stadium stands, and Mrs Tan gave them their certificates and flowers!

Yay.

Posing with their hard-earned certs and flowers. :D

Remember the jump shots that we tried in Cambodia?
Well, Mrs Tan suggested to try it this time with FDC!

1st try!~

2nd try~!
Christel! Spread your wings, and fly, you can do it!

And there's even a video during one of their attempts on the jump shots! Courtesy of Sri, explains why the video is in quite bad quality.

M'okay, maybe I'll elaborate more when I'm more rested. For now, I'm going to bed.

kthxbye.

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!

Yay! It's officially the Tiger year...

I sincerely apologize for the delaying updates. But I am working on a post, that may be quite appealing, stay tuned...

Yes, I'm blogging in the middle of the night, ever heard of the New Year Eve saying?

Something about children staying up as long as they can on the night of the CNY eve, the longer they stay awake, the longer their parents would live. :D

So, I can't really tell if it's true or not, but I've been doing this for as long as I can remember...

And, this is a really, really short update. Just to show that I'm still alive and blogging.

A little comment about the recent CNY/Total defense day celebration:
To be honest, it was the best one I've ever seen. 'Cos there was this part whereas each class should already have at least 1 certified first-aider, and so, we were given situations from an unfortunate soccer match, and perform first aid on random casualties aka your classmates who are game.

That's all for tonight. Will be blogging soon!

kthxbye

Hi!

I haven't blogged in 2 weeks, and it's 'cause I really didn't have the time.

So, I shall just type out a short update on what I've been up to.

Being a Year 3 student, you have loads of homework.

It's especially a lot when you're dead tired when you come home, and feel so unmotivated to do them.

Therefore, the next day, you leave your homework alone, copied the answers from a friend, and eventually get scolded by a teacher for having the same answers as the friend.
Worse if the friend's the one getting scolded for having the same answers as yours.

Have you ever wondered, why we feel so unmotivated, easily attracted to other things, and ignore what's important? I couldn't help but wonder, how much is too much?

When will we ever know when we've crossed the line of our teacher's patience? And why are we continuing to do it, even though we're aware of the circumstances.

I do know that everyone at this stage of life, or maybe sooner of later, feel this way.

And due to laziness, we forget what's important and go on doing what we need the most. SLEEP.

How do we overcome this problem? I think I've the solution. It worked for me, and I hope it does for you too.

Check up on your weakness. What do you look forward too everyday when you come back from school? Is it the sleep, the television, or like my case, the laptop?

The truth is, I didn't do so well in the 1st week of school, I was slacking and I'm still Year 2 in my mind.

What I do is, yes I switch on the laptop, take a good shower first (that'll take away the sleepiness you've felt while you were in school), and when you're all fresh, start the music on the laptop, and your homework. It's helped me concentrate better in school.
But let me remind you, it may or may not help you, though.

So far, I've managed to escape from being punished of not submitting my homework because it wasn't done, but I'm sure there's more that the teachers can do for these kind of work attitudes, it has only been 3 weeks of school so far.

I hope the tip help!

kthx bye!

Hi!

Yesterday, I went shopping!

And a spent a jaw-dropping S$155 within 2 hours in 313!

A totally FABULOUS place to find the perfect dress for your Chinese New Year!

My initial expectation was to only buy 1 dress from Forever 21.

But guess what?

I got, 2 dresses from Forever 21, a pair of scandals from Charles & Keith, 1 ribbon and a butterfly shirt from RIBBON.

All the above items were bought from places recommended by 313's Advertising & Public Relations in-charge, Tan Swee Lin, who happens to be my mum's best friend. So, she knows just about anything about 313.

I will tell you, in detail (meaning dollars and cents), about what I bought.

But before everything. we went to this fast food joint that serves the greatest burgers anywhere!
No I'm not being exaggerated, I'm like this 'cause I've munched on the burger, managed to live, to tell about. And good thing I took pictures!

It's a bar concept, really smart owner, the tables and benches were obviously cheap, but they were stylish, fitted the atmosphere, and he concentrated on the more important thing, the FOOD! Thus, he'll definitely bring in loads of ka-ching, judging by how many people were standing around waiting for tables. And we were lucky to get one real quick.

And this is what I ordered, the fabulously de-lish (as mentioned in my twits) Beef Mushroom Burger. Even if you hate mushroom, I'm telling you, it's much more de-lish than the supposedly 'signature dish'. Even comes with almost-saltless chips, as shown above. Reason why some are in different colours, is 'cause of the different kind of potatoes they use. But both are low-fat, they may seem fattening and burnt, but don't reject 'til you've tried it!

Trust them, what they're saying is true! And they said, the patty of meat is oddly shaped, why, 'cause it isn't processed. But even if its oddly shaped, you'll always get a piece of the meat whenever you lean over for a bite of the burger.

In case you wanna try it...
It's at:

8 Grange Road
#01-02 Cathay Cineleisure Orchard

Open daily from 11AM to 11PM.

For more information, Tel: +65 6737 9947.

On with the shopping!

Here's what I got from Forever 21: (pardon the terrible photography)

This is S$45, it can't really be seen properly, but at the collar, it's supposed to be like an extra piece just to hang and rest on your chest . :)

This is also $45. In case you're wondering how long it is, when I wear it (the initial length), it reaches my ankle. Totally in love with it! Can act like Ai in Kurage Nagareboshi. LOL.

And to prove they're really from Forever 21:

LOL. No comments needed.

From RIBBON:

This super cute top is priced at $39.90. Doesn't look that nice since I'm bad at photos. Bought a blue ribbon with it too, but forgot to snap it.

And something from Charles & Keith:

Bad lighting. Initial price: $49. But I got a discount, can't remember how, and only paid $26. Good not?

Okay, that's it. I'll have to wear them all for CNY, if you're seeing me on CNY, you'll get to see them on a body. :D

2010-01-06T04:51:00.000-08:00

HI!

Wow, Sec 3 already.
I know many of you are wondering how my first day was...
Actually I can't say much, 'cos I wasn't in class most of the time.

But I'll just say a little bit about the Sec 1 Orientation that I was involved in.

I was the SL/tourguide for class 1N2~! Not a very enthusiastic bunch though.
I had trouble finding the most enthusiastic person to nominate out of the class, so I just chose the one who participated in all of the games actively.

I can still remember her name... Claudia!

OK, if the class ever reads this, they'll probably hold a grudge on me, but I don't care.

I made her go on stage to do a difficult challenge, which will be explained later.

But I shall talk about my experience of the first day school as an upper-Sec.

Morning duty, I'm doing Classroom Patrol, Sec 3s and 4s block. So, I already knew where my new classroom was. But before duty, I noticed most of the Sec 1s wearing this particularly ugly shirt, which I presumed was the Primary school uniform or something, which was actually the new JWSS PE shirt. There's the new PE shorts too.
Just imagine the school logo on the PE shorts as the four-letter word "JWSS" in purple thread.

Refer to Travis' blog for the picture of the PE shirt when he's gotten the picture.

In particular that morning, I couldn't find my school badge (of all the days), so I called Travis early that morning to help me purchase one.

So, my dad sent me to school as per normal, walked into school, went up to the hall, realizing the guys I know are all wearing their traditional long pants, astonished, went down to look for Travis for my badge, paid him back for my badge, and I just happened to run into Phoebe and her sister at the canteen buying drinks. As any other lost, new Sec (place a number 1 - 5 here) person, I followed her up to the hall.

Started duty, blah blah blah, realized I was too excited to start the new term that I've forgotten to apply the duty of placing my blue Councilor notebook into my bag, but so did everyone.

And my form teacher is Ms Wang, you know, the one that substituted Ms Wong last year for Maths for awhile, yeah that one. :)

So far, I think she's doing a pretty good job in being a form teacher, but if there were any problems with her, I'd wouldn't even tell YOU here. I'd get in trouble.

Uptill now, we've pretty much met all of our subject teachers, they'll all really nice. No wonder the upper-Sec always have close ties with their teachers.

But in class that day, into the part where we had to pick out our Vice-chairperson, I had to leave already, so I don't know what else happened in class. Si Yuan and I were the only ones from the class involved in the orientation.

Skipping the Sec 1s meeting their fellow SLs, tour around the school and the games. Here's the challenge for the supposedly most enthusiastic student in every class:

You have to obtain these difficult items within the hall:

A lock of the longest hair
2 pairs of socks
A size 46 shoes
An Adidas Watch
A 1-cent coin

The class were really reluctant in helping her at all, so I had to try to convince them in doing #1, 2 and 4.

#5 was almost impossible, like, who still uses a 1-cent coin?
#3 was HILARIOUS! There was only one person in the hall wearing size 46 shoes. And it was the Emcee, Afif. Therefore, 2 of the enthusiastic class representatives chased him around the hall, until one of them got the pair.

In the end, Claudia didn't win most enthusiastic student. But nevermind, the class had fun, or so I think.

2010-01-02T08:02:00.000-08:00

Good morning! It's 12:03AM on Sunday and I'm still blogging!

Yes, I'm still alive.

As many bloggers have done, I'm gonna type out my 2010 resolutions.

Decided to do it, before anyone calls a search party for me since I'm hiding indoors for a few days already.

2010

Let me just say, HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Yeah, I'm late, sorry. Cyber-ly, I'm inactive, and don't even want to go online.

Okay, don't know why I just said that.

Work hard in 3E1, since my studies are currently categorized as a steep slope.
Get a new yukata in time for Racial Harmony. You won't wanna see the same one again right?
Get knee-high boots. 'Cos I'm gonna need them in Japan during Winter when I get back.
Cut my unexceptionally-long nails. (Just did, few hours ago, you'd know if you follow me on Twitter. FOLLOW HERE!)
Get at least $100 from ang-bao monaaayyyy. I hope for the best!
Become a good NCO. Well, I hope for the best.
Become President on SC. Most UNLIKELY, 'cos I'm lazy, and I'd probably be bad at it too.
Be able to get into Mass Communication in Ngee Ann Poly through DPA.
Get into Advertising & Public Relations if #8 doesn't work out. Listen, I have to be smart here.
Remember to finish my plate in order to get handsome husband in future. Chinese saying: Finish your food, you shall have a good-looking spouse. Yeah, my options are open for Tegoshi, LOL! No I'm serious. (I'm listening to Tegomasu no Uta now, explains the sudden obsession. But I'll keep dreaming and wishing!)
Survive NCO camp. As much as I HATE camps, I hope this one goes out well.
Go to Japan again. I love it there too much.
Get into Ngee Ann through DPA. Related to #8 & #9.
Start shaping my eyebrows. Better do it before they grow thick and I'll become so undesirable.
Learn to play an instrument. I'm lazy to go for it, so I'll just let an offer fall on my lap.
Go shopping, after getting money from #5.
Try to blog more. Yes, already trying.
Further study Japanese. Already doing it, just learned a new word, "雰囲気", pronounced as "fu-n-i-chi" meaning atmosphere/air/presence.
Receive a Valentine's Day present. You're probably not surprised, I've never received one, at least I can't remember.
Find a job. Same as #15, I'll just wait to be forced to find one.
Have a great year! Since Sec 3 is known as the "honeymoon" year. 'Cos your classes are confirmed, you can relax and in many ways, you're given more power on things. Therefore, you'd probably enjoy the year.

That's pretty much it. HAPPY NEW YEAR once again, and I wish everyone the best of luck for the rest of the year. :D

2009-12-23T07:37:00.000-08:00

Do you remember me?
I sat upon your knee,
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies.

I'm all grown-up now,
but still need help somehow.
I'm not a child,
but my heart still can dream.

So here's my lifelong wish,
my grown-up Christmas list.
Not for myself, but for a World in need.

No more lives torn apart,
that wars would never start,
and time will heal all hearts.
And everyone would have a friend,
and right will always win,
and LOVE would never end.

This is my grown-up Christmas list,
this is my only lifelong wish.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

2009-12-21T19:16:00.000-08:00

The holidays are almost over. And I haven't gotten everything want yet.
No, it's not the end of my search, but it is the end of having carefree time.
Yes, the end of our childhood.

Sure, we're too old to still be in our childhood, and what I'm saying a little bullshit, but trust me, we are.

After Secondary 2, your life will CHANGE.

(Actually I've been thinking about this topic for quite sometime now, and now deciding to type it out.)

From now onwards, at least in my life, we will be obsessed with WORK.

Next year, we'll be working our butts off towards end-of-year for our POLY/JC APPLICATIONS.

Yes, weren't you listening during Mr Gan's talk?

And if it doesn't work out like you wanted, you have to work EVEN HARDER in Secondary 4.
'Cause there's the good-ol' Os/Ns-going-to-be-Os.

And next year, we'll be having our individual subjects to go batshit crazy studying on, and what new things to add on to our teenage lives?

If you're a Student Councilor, there's the elections (a new president), the planning of things, the cleaning of things, running of things and the saying-'this-way-please' of things.

If you're in a Uniformed Group, it's compulsory to be an NCO, meaning that you're a leader, and when anything goes wrong, someone's going to take the blame.

*Please don't sack/punish me after this, this is not complaining, it's acknowledgment. Showing that I'm getting prepared for the things ahead of me and typing down helps me accept and absorb it.

And after Secondary School, more work and lesser freedom lies ahead.

In poly, it's said that after your first year of adjusting to things in your new course/school, you'd be interning 7 days a week with a horrifying pay attached. Of course I'm not encouraging anyone to only choose the course with the highest possible interning pay, but please be smart and choose one that you love and know that you'll enjoy.

Eventually, you'll continue to pursue your upcoming career in University trying to earn a degree. You'll probably be dead tired everyday and not much freetime.

After graduating, you'd be most probably trying to look for a job and support yourself. And while doing that, you work full-time and off-days are pretty limited if you're starting at the way bottom. Thus, the only long off-days legal would probably be MC (Yeah, go purposely fall down stairs and break your leg la.), pregnancy or reservist. And 2/3 costs money, so you'd better earn your money good before thinking of doing anything else.

Ah, and marriage (if people really actually get married), marriage is another story/topic that I don't know much of. I've never been married, so what do I know?

And the only way to really relax like how we are relaxing now?

LOSING YOUR JOB.

Sure, after years and years following, you miss relaxing, and once you get older, you'd probably feel like relaxing all the time, maybe even at work. Thus, leading you to get full of yourself, hating a boss so-much, or boss hating you, and both situations leading to getting sacked or quitting.

And definitely, you'd think, "Ah, that was a long kukubird ride, I NEED A BREAK!"

While thinking that, you take a few months rest and enjoying life, using up all your hard earned money from throughout the years and lead to loaning from the bank until you find another job.

So, my purpose for taking this half-an-hour to type this is that I'd like everyone to enjoy the holidays while you still can. Don't use your time unwisely. :D

2009-12-18T22:34:00.000-08:00

English:
Okay, I've just opened a another blog. It'll be like my diary.
But this is still my main blog, the other blog is to store all my thoughts and scribbled poems, maybe even recent favorite sayings.

So that other blog is quite personal for me, as it houses my deep feelings put into words.

This is the other side that you've not seen about me. The softer side, much softer.

If you're curious, here it is: http://sayaendoevathink.blogspot.com/

But please, after you've understood what I write there, I don't want them to be trashed or made fun of. But I do believe that, if you're feeling vulnerable, that'll be a place where you can relax and read what I have to say when I'm vulnerable.

Cheers!

Eva

Japanese:

私はもう１つのウェブサイトを作成しました。それは私の日記でしょう。
これはまだ主なウェブサイトでしょう。新しいウェブサイトは私のすべての考えと感情をストアするでしょう。それは私のために個人的でしょう。それは言葉に注がれた私の感覚を受けるでしょう。

これはあなたが見なかった感情的な私であろう。いっそう感情的な私。
もしあなたがそれらを見ることを望むなら : http://sayaendoevathink.blogspot.com/

さようならとありがとう、

English Translation (英訳):

Hi, just a short update. I've changed my background song/video to "White Light" 'cause it's the only Christmas-related song I could think of ('stay with me' doesn't quite work right?). And the reason why I have this 'English Translation/Japanese Translation' bullshit is 'cause I found out that 20% of the people who visit the blog, whether in transit or not, is Japanese. Or at least it came from Japan. SO, yeah. :D Merry Christmas!

Japanese Translation (日本語訳):

やあ、こんにちは、ただ短い更新。クリスマスであろうとしているから、「ｗｈｉｔｅ　ｌｉｇｈｔ」私は私の歌をに変えました。私がなぜ同じく日本の翻訳を持っているかという理由、は私が若干の日本の読者を持っているからである。２０パーセントが日本からです。日本から私のウェブサイトを読んだ人たちまで、大変ありがとうございます。メリークリスマス、皆！

Importance of friendship between girls and maybe guys.

I had just read an article about how all men are pigs.

I can't say they all are, neither do I have the power or social greatness to comment much.

What do I know about men? I have known boys (cause' they've not gotten to their coming of age age.), and from various sources, some really are pigs.

But not from my circle, or am I too careless to notice?

Are all boys going to end up as pigs?

But from what I can infer, boys grow up to become bachelors and playboys, girls end up with the name 'spinsters' or 'old maid'. What has society done to limit us to these two choices?

Here is where we have to treasure friendship. This is where friendship is important amongst girls.

If you're a guy, you might not want to carry on reading.

For girls, we are a bunch of very sensitive and emotional creatures. With just a pinch of criticism, we'll already blow our top mentally, or go off to cry later on.

There is NO girl who is very emotionally-secure, and won't cry off after a harsh piece of news. Even if they don't cry, their ego would've been hurt. And covers it with saying something tough or laughing it off.

So, staying together as friends is very important. Here is my point why.
Even if we're married and grow old, if we won't keep friendship real and stay close as possible, instead you go on with your family and not care at all. Men die first, that's the hard truth. Then we're all back to square one being single and where friendship is our priority.

We need an emotional safety net to keep from breaking down, and ending up in dying earlier.

It's a battle to keep friendships going, and during this holidays, keeping each other posted is pretty difficult since we're not going to school to see each other everyday.

Make the effort to meet up once in while, don't avoid them. You'll never know what free will may present you. But trust me, once you're too old to do what you like when you're younger, it will be a lonely road for you if you have a $1000 chip on your shoulders.

We make most of our best friendships and relationships from Secondary school/High school. Cherish them, love them, do not kill them, nor avoid them. Especially when you've already known someone long-term.

2009-12-01T07:14:00.000-08:00

This is going to be a super short update, this is just reference to my posts on FaceBook.
After watching the NEWS LIVE DIAMOND DVD (downloaded video), here are the aftermath:

English translation:

Aah, finally finished watching the concert. Overall, not bad. Despite the numerous back-to-back songs (which I guess it was supposed to be that way.), I loved the times where they appear to be ending the concert, but happened to appear again and start singing another song. Total: 3 times. Anyone else who wants to watch... it (guessing there won't be many), enjoy yourself!

Japanese Translation:

ああ、私は最終的にコンサートを見終わっている。全体的に、私はそれが問題がないと思います。多くの絶え間がない歌にもかかわらず（私がそれが標準的であると思うこと）, 私は部分を楽しんだのに対してコンサートを終わらせるそれらを見せかけること, けれども再び現われて、そして再び歌い始めました。時の数：３。見守ることに興味を持っている人たちのために（私は多くがないであろうと思います）, どうか楽しんでください。

P.S. Eunice wanted me to post up this drawing she pain-sakenly drew for me and my blog on MSN.

サヤエンドウとラブちゃんです！Sayaendou and LOVE-chan!

こんにちは、私はただカンボジアから帰りました。

そしてそれについての皮肉な部分は私がそこ（に・で）病気になったということです。

それはただ昨日に過ぎませんでした。たまたまシンガポール人であった医者は私に薬をくれました。

私は、昨日６回、道によると吐きました。彼は私に私のところで数日の間もつための台じりと少数の錠剤の上の注射を与えました。

ここで、皆のために幸せな感謝祭を祈ってくださいと書くのをやめるべきですそして私は２９日までにもっと良くなることを望みます。

I have nothing to rant about. Nor discuss about.

Felt like blogging, but have no topic to talk about.

Nuffnang isn't paying me anytime soon, (it'll take 5 years anyway).

So I shall just talk about what I've been up to nowadays.

Yesterday was the last Red Cross training for the year, and I'm leaving for Cambodia in the wee hours of the morning tomorrow.
Wish us a safe trip everyone!

Nothing to complain about Red Cross though. (Obviously I don't wanna blog about it, or I'll be in trouble.) So I'll just keep my comments to myself.

Oh just thought of a small issue for writers that I'd like to talk about!

WE WRITERS HAVE NOTHING, AND I REPEAT, NOTHING TO WRITE ABOUT!

As you flip through the Life! newspaper everyday, the writers/journalists have nothing absolutely no interesting topic to talk about which applies to all of us.

(I say Life! newspaper cos the writers there talk about our modern Singaporean lives. And not news.)

Even interesting bloggers online like myself (LOL, you know I'm joking.... Still~...), have nothing much to talk about. (Refer to Unicornee or Meatpao.)

You can tell that they're bored, even Travis isn't updating much.

Eunice is bored, her posts are post-emo.

Most of us just talk about our lives now. Which most people who don't know us, wouldn't want to read about.
You have to agree, anonymous people read the blogs because they think we have strong opinions on various topics.

And what the World can do to keep us talking/writing/blogging?
I don't know either, I wrote this cos I'm bored and trying to improvise with what materials I have.

(*Okay, people are going to hate me even more cos they think I "haolian" (show off), but I consider myself an OK blogger due to the number of people come to my blog. 10-30 people a day is not bad, OK?!)

2009-11-11T19:15:00.000-08:00

UBER-BUSY LATELY!

I haven't been posting since after the exams and I sincerely apologize.

Lately, there're many Red Cross trainings and events that's gotten me really tied up.
And I'm not complaining!

What's coming up soon for me is my Student Council Camp (9 - 10 November) and Red Cross Camp (13 - 15 November). So I'd be updating once in a long while. But I will when I've thought of something to rave, cry, stress and rant about.

Some announcements in case you may want to catch up with what I've been up to lately is:

-I'm in 3E1' 2010 & 4E1' 2011 (Stay tuned)
-One of the 7 NOT taking Pure Biology next year.
-I'm failing my Red Cross Accreds.
-Got only A1 for geography.

2009-10-18T01:23:00.000-07:00

THE EXAMS ARE OVER!

Oh they're long over, should've told you that earlier.
Haven't been updating, and everyone's (at least in my circle) anxious about what embarrasing story I have to tell you next.

Well, since you guys aren't visiting my blog as much, due to that, Nuffnang isn't paying me any time soon so I better update something to get your mouths moving to criticize me later.

Mainly, what I'd like to explain and lay out on the table today is the craze about Twilight.

Seriously, I don't see how it could be soooo engaging. In order to get people to be CRAZY about Edward or whatever that poor guy's name is.

I pity that poor guy Robert, seriously. He isn't attached, when he's on the red carpet, the girls call out 'Edward' and not 'Robert', which is his real stage name. People are going crazy over mythical people or characters. Anime is also another example.

From my experience, I used fall totally in love with character in an Anime, and for what? To spend my money on their merchandise. I've ever dreamt about marrying this guy but I have to make myself believe that he isn't real and get on with life.

That's the unlucky factor of life, there are things and certain objectives out there to ruin your beliefs and disturb your time. But I'm not trying to say that they should cut off all anime and dramatic movies so that people like me are happy. If people do this for a living, I guess good for them that their jobs are pretty enjoyable. But seriously people, do you kill yourselves or spend fortunes so that you get your visual pleasures looking at their posters or touching their cardboard cut-out figures (hint: Hannah Montana). Get a life!

Unless, your aim is a certain famous someone within your age-box to take your hand in marriage or at least their number. I guess it's okay. Cos honestly, I have a dream or certain fantasy (no sexuality please!) that I love to live. But probably it's not going to happen cos he's in Japan. Nevermind! I'll keep my options open to locals here. :D

I know this post is a little selfless and I'm not thinking straight so, don't you dare criticize me behind my back. I have links, and I shall hunt you down!

2009-09-30T03:33:00.000-07:00

I TOTALLY FELT A TREMOR, I SWEAR!

Just felt it at 6:27PM, 30 Sept 2009!
(Today la, when when..)

Okay, this update is just about this. I'm supposed to check the Channel News Asia website now.

Tell ME MORE if you felt it too!

God bless.

Bye.

2009-09-26T21:20:00.000-07:00

People change
(Not really)

Exams are coming very soon, in fact it's just outside your door.
(Travis, you can go tweet about my horrible expressions)

But anyway, I guess, a way to relief stress could be others instead of listening to music or reading, like every other CME teacher would say.

You can stiff up and stick your nose into other class blogs!

No, not the recent ones, but ones from the past.

Since most of my new found classmates (not anymore new) are from 1E1 last year.

They've become familiar faces in that area.

So being a bochap and kaypoh Singaporean. I curiously checked the 1E1 '08 blog to see what JUICY gossip or secrets I can squeeze out of it.

And what have I found~?

Oh, the juiciest of them all would be their Sec 1 Orientation camp pictures.

(For copyright issues, I shall not upload them here for the humor of it all.)

I had finally laughed about something for 2 days!

The feeling was really nostalgic. Everyone looked really different (obviously) and I can really tell how much everyone has evolved into what they are now.

From fats and bad hairdos that can be pointed out, I could slowly tell that who has turned ah-lian, who's lost the most weight, who's lost the glasses, the long locks, grown the tallest and has broken HIS shell of a high-pitched voice.

But obviously, I shall just say one name, Min Xuan hasn't changed.

Sorry to him, and I know the rest of you are angered by me now, confirm!

Like, during Music, Min Xuan was too shy to sing solo in front of the whole class, so Ms Lin asked the guys to leave, leaving the girls to critisize him with the allowance to actually witness him.

I shall not give alot of clues on how he sang, cause' I honestly can't really hear what he sang though. But he did say that he wrote the lyrics out of a METAL song. OH MY!

But while he was singing, many girls giggled away and I was utterly disgusted by this behavior.
I moved my eyebrows downwards as I stared at the laughing crowd. I didn't find it funny at all!
I'm still disturbed by their reaction of his singing uptil now.

Cause' due to the fact that I yelled in anger at the girls after exiting the room, but I think most of them didn't care, you'd be thinking I'm a bitch to talk bad about him especially on the open internet.

In conclusion, I know I can't end a blog post very well, so I shall make this short.
The pictures were funny but somewhat nostalgic (cause' I wasn't in 1E1 last year). Min Xuan deserves respect that it's very difficult to sing solo especially when you're the target of the class for embarrassment. People can be very judgemental, and not to say myself as well, and although you don't see yourself as someone who would gossip or see someone's bad side, there's definitely a side that the devil has implanted on all of us to be a basterd/bitch.

Yes, I curse on my blog because I can!

Fallen Off a chair sideways
And live to tell about it

Oh, my.
Everyone's got that experience right?
Falling off a chair in school.
Whether it was in Primary School or, more unfortunately, recently.
You'd be expecting embarrassment coming your way.
A burst of laughter or sudden silence, perhaps.

Well, I've just got my first experience in 4 years!

That's right! 4 years!
I remember falling off a chair once, back then rocking your chair was a trend.
But have you ever fallen from one sideways?
Unusual and the probably the top of the list of worst everyday chair accidents.
Ah yes, a pretty normal day during the Mother Tongue lesson.
My class is 2E5 and we have only 15 students.
Pathetic.
Anyway, I reached for my books on my back by turning myself by counter-clockwise.

GONG XI FA CAI!

Yes, I fell!
I fell sideways, landing on my butt.
Not particularly painful, no one laughed but what I'm going to complain about is how I fell.
It was really unsightly.
I guess my position was... During labour?
But it was totally embarrassing.

And I found out, the legs on one side were tilted.
So who's the overweight person who sat before me?
Who's from 2E5, and probably big-boned/heavy-weighted?
Who sits on the right end corner of the class.

Well, whoever you are.
You must be down right heavy to be able to break a chair until it tilts.
Even Noel doesn't have that problem.
Or so it seems.

Whoever you are, I hope you fall tomorrow too!
At least completely break the chair,
Then no one would be a victim too.

And no, it NEVER occured to me that it might be me that's the one who's fat.
Well, I've never broken a chair so of course I won't believe it!

2009-08-13T00:23:00.000-07:00

Tagged by Eunice, twice.

Okay, Eunice tagged me twice for this so, let's see how much I know about her. D:

1) Who tagged you with this?
Eunice.

2) Your relationship with him/her?
Goood~ friends. Classmates.

3) Your 5 impressions with him/her?
-Anime-lover
-J-POP fan
-Rather soft spoken
-Cheerful
-A friend you can definitely keep and trust (Cause she won't ditch you, or so I think.)

Most probably, giving me my Birthday and Christmas gift on the same day, the next year.

5) The most memorable thing he/she has said to you.

6) If he/she has something that needs to improve on, what is it?
Her volume, sometimes I can't hear you, my dear.

7) If he/she becomes your enemy, you will too?
Not possible. I try my best to keep relationships with everyone as good, to avoid conflicts. So it'll probably never happen.

8) What will the reason be, if you do become enemies?
Most probably a misunderstanding, happens to everyone. But then again, it probably won't happen, at least I hope not.

Relac one corner during English class and chat. HAHA.

10) If he/she becomes your lover, you will?

We share the same 'passion' for Japan, J-POP, Ai Otsuka etc. :D

12) What do people around you thinks about you?

13) What are the characters you like about yourself?
MY CRAZINESS!

14) What are the characters you hate about yourself too?

Joy to the World, It's not Christmas!
(Try the tune!)

It's 11 August 2009. Yup, 2 days after National Day.
Actually, this post is for no apparent reason, just to show everyone I'm grounded.
So, hello.

National Day's over.
We can all take off our red shirts now.
I just got the National Day gift from the school.
Oh god. $13 a person.
It's horrible. Just a file, with some dividers in it?
I don't even know how to use it, to be absolutely honest.
Well, god bless those who helped pack them.
It's not their fault, so god bless them. :)

And did you know the Red Cross first aid course is on 10 - 12 September?
At least that's what I heard. Sorry Cindy.
I remember hearing three paired-together numbers, one of them's 11.
SO, if they're wrong, I'm sorry.

Have a great week ahead, I know this is super short.

2009-08-01T07:27:00.000-07:00

The highly-discussed and awaited fate of the
Inter-class Soccer Matches

Date: 1 August 2009

What a very good way to start the month, I thought.
I left the house at 6:50AM and was supposed to meet Eunice at
7:15AM.
Obvious by the time estimation, I'd be late.
And I was, 7:25AM I reached.

By that time, everyone was at the field by the Music Terrace already.
Oh I forgot to mention, Zhi Leong and Zhen Hong was just alighting a car while I was nearing the gate.
All I was worried about was that they'd stare at my big butt, this is what happens if you wear a size 42 shorts which are obviously too big and I had no reason not to wear them.

As we reached, most of the players were already there.

Team Leader briefing session.
LOL at Christel!

The first game is...

2E4 vs 2T1

The 2E4 players are wearing black!

Couldn't remember who won though, I think it's 2E4 if I'm not wrong.

NEXT GAME!

2E1 vs 2N2

Long Shot

Noel ( goalkeeper ) and Zhi Yang.

Our class wears the yellow sash.

In the end, we lost against 2N2.
But there was still one more game!
And in the period of the first, I think I lost my voice.
The four girls, Kar Qi, Christel, Eunice and me, are like le Sex and the City girls.
And after that Nasan came. :D
And became in charge of my SUPER CHIO camera.

Even though they lost, the guys show TRUE UNITY!
Sit organized in a row watching their following opponent.
WAIT THERE'S MORE!

MAGNIFICENT!

Nasan shows her great photography.
Wah, suddenly occurred to me that it looks so romantic.

For awhile, Nasan left to join the Hockey players.

Sex and the City girls went to that Exercise Place near the field.
Christel went crazy and...

I swear it was super high that she went.
I just saw directly behind her on the sit-up bench and at first it wasn't so bad.
And she got higher, and when it swings back, if I continued sitting there, I swear I would've lost my face and probably my whole head!
She looks happy on it though, until later on she couldn't stop and the rest of us helped.

Soon after that, 2E3 and 2E5 combined teams!
Now they're even stronger!
Somemore, Patrick as goalkeeper, I don't know how to finish this sentence!
(Wah, so kua zhang)
And then, 2E1 vs 2E3+2E5.

Okay la, doesn't look so scary to you right?

And I forgot to mention,
everytime a class pays with 2E1, there'd always be no goals and the results for both sides are 0-0.
Since that's the case, there must be a penalty shot(s).
A team would only lose if their player shoots a foul ball, the goalkeeper catches the opponent's ball or the opponents misses.

So, 2E1 has been out of luck that morning.
Or I shouldn't have said that.
Nasan came back again and snapped us when it was supposed to be candid, but I recognize my camera when it stares at me so...

That hand's Eunice by the way.
Too bad we couldn't witness Christel float.
And I look fat.

In the very last game,
2E1 vs 2T1
Very saddening.
Just photos alright?

And once, during the last game, the ball actually flew over that miraculously tall fence and managed to bounce into the carpark.
So there's this kid outside, was nice enough to try to throw over the fence.
But poor thing, he couldn't even throw high enough, not even half. :)

And funny parts?

Christel trying to eat the microphone.

So SHINY!

We have our moment!

The scoreboard.

THIS IS THE SUMMER TIME!

I know it's been Summer for a long time.
No, I'm not meaning Singapore.
(Aiyo, lei gong meh, bai kar ah lian)
I know la, Singapore everyday 30 degrees, want fight somemore la ah?
What I mean is other countries.

Isn't it sweltering out there?
I guess so.
And what do the Japanese do traditionally in Summer?
No, not wear smaller clothes.
(Eh, watch too much hentai is it?)

They bring out their:

WHAT IS THIS?

WAH, why so long?!

OKAY, you probably guessed it.
For the rest of you still blur blur.

Concentrate ah, the people in the background, how are they wearing?

Okay la, everyone brings out their
YUKATA!

That's right!
The cheaper, lighter, cooler version of the
KIMONO!

They're cooler, lighter and less expensive!
And this year's Annual Racial Harmony Day?
And didn't you see I have one at home too?
NATSU MATUSRI IS COMING and I'm wearing
No, no HAPPI COAT WEARING
MY YUKATA TO SCHOOL!

YES! If you see this person wearing black and white and something blue stuck in the middle.
It'll probably be me la.

COMMENT ABOUT THIS!

Picture Summaries

Yes, I'm lazy to post.
But not too lazy to not create videos.

Sure, I've created Picture summary videos in place of the many hours I have to spend trying to type everything out when some people don't like to read them, right?

So, enjoy the video(s).
If your video doesn't load long enough for you to at least watch the first few minutes,
please do not exit the page,
scroll down,
click the advertisement,
make sure it opens another window/tag,
read it and then return to the video.
It should be done loading at least the first few minutes.
Please remember to pause the music before watching.
Don't be lazy!
:)

The Japan Trip's a bit long. But don't worry, it's beautiful and worth it.
I hope so.
12 minutes. :)

And below is an extra from the Japan trip.
Yes, I was the cameraman, Travis got irritated in this.
Sorry. :)

2009-06-21T06:24:00.000-07:00

7) Christel
8) Jessica
9) Jeslyn
10) Elaine

1. What if 1 and 8 fight? [Travis, Jessica]
They've had a couple of short fights, they're not that close so the fight wouldn't last long.
2. What would you do if 5 loves your boyfriend? [Eunice]
Heh, that would never happen 'cause I'd never have a boyfriend. But if it ever happens, leave him, maybe things aren't meant to be. There are plenty more men to catch. Hah.

Classmates, this year.
4. How are you related to 7? [Christel]
Through Red Cross '08 and 2E1 '09.

Rather disappointed and I'd reflect back on what I've probably done and try to make it up. Nothing happens without a reason.
6. What if 3 and 5 fight? [Pei Ling, Eunice]
Probably not possible. They seem like good friends. If they do fight, I'd try not to get involved.
7. If 2 have boyfriend/girlfriend and you don't have, would you be jealous? [Marion]
Oh my, Marion having a boyfriend, I'd want to live and see the day. But other than that, I won't get jealous at all, that's just being desperate.

My ex-classmate and good friend.

Left-brainer, Right-brainer or No-brainer

Yes, I thought I was a no-brainer.

I thought I was neither left or right.

It's said that Left means someone is creative and full of life.

Right usually means one is smart and logically-thinking most of the time.

Through-out my whole life,

I was mixed up with both.

Last year, when I did well for my exams,

I thought I was a right-brainer.

But when I was still in Team Singapore,

involved in a musically-involved sport,

when I knew my cheography well.

I thought I was a left-brainer.

This phase has been repeating itself for years in my life so far,

that when my left-brain shows it's potential, the right sleeps.

Or just playing low, as though it barely exists.

And vice-versa for other times.

I finally decided to confirm everything and stop this illusion.

I took an online test to find out which side of my brain has greater potential and maybe I could more or less tell my future job.

A job which I'm good at and enjoy doing it.

Sure, I had high-hopes for my results to appear a Left-brain,

so that I could still wish for a job in the Entertainment industry.

But my results came as this:

Right Brain/ Left Brain Quiz
The higher of these two numbers below indicates which side of your brain has dominance in your life. Realising your right brain/left brain tendancy will help you interact with and to understand others.
Left Brain Dominance:	(8)
Right Brain Dominance:	(8)
Right Brain/ Left Brain Quiz

No wonder I'm messed up.

P.S. Since I was in the 'Discover-your-body' era, I had an arge to find out my face shape, since it helps to find hair styles and fashion-should-dos. And seems like, I have a HEART-shaped face. No I'm not kidding. What a beautiful result?! Some famous HEART-shaped faces are Jennifer Love Hewitt and, my favorite, Otsuka Ai-chan!

2009-05-31T02:13:00.000-07:00

Still wondering when I'll post about that long awaited Japan trip in March?
Well, let's say you were lucky enough to have lived to see the day.
Visit :
http://evaspeaks.livejournal.com/

to read the post on the Japan trip!

So far, I've only posted on the first day.
But I've thought of a system.
Everyday I will post up one day's happenings in Japan.
Fair enough?

Watch me on Live Journal
and try to keep up with me!

2009-05-30T02:18:00.000-07:00

Yahoo is Talking Back!

Oh dear.
In case you were wondering,
I have 2 email addresses.

Hotmail and Yahoo.
Of course, Hotmail's the main one.
And so Yahoo is the one that I use to subscribe to stuff.
As one would've expected,
I'd always be looking forward to checking my mail if any of those
latest things have arrived, you'd know
to stay on par with others on the "in" things.

Seems that I forgot that I used that address ONCE to send an email.
That rarely happens and I also forgot why I refused to used Yahoo as the main server.
Until, earlier today I received an email saying that there was an error in sending my email.
Sure, you must be thinking,
what unusual in that? Everyone'll get it once in a while.

My answer to that would be,
NO.
OH, now I remember why I don't use Yahoo.
No offense to those who love Yahoo.
(If there are any.)
YAHOO TALKS BACK!
I'm like any other person, sending emails aren't the favorite thing on the menu that I'd do.
But I'll order it from time to time.
And I don't see in any way was I demanding in sending emails.
I didn't try to send a few in order to get the message seen.
It was ONE simple message to a penpal of mine whom I've not contacted for quite sometime.

THIS IS THE WORDS OF YAHOO,
THE PHRASE THAT I GOT ME BOILING WITH,
BUT ALSO GAVE ME GIGGLES.

"I have tried to connect to all servers to make your request. I have given up. Sorry. It didn't work out."

If you think I'm making this up.
You are damn right WRONG.
Wait until one day you'll get your copy too.

You know, it's like I'm in a relationship with YAHOO.
Like, when a guy wants to break up with you and said he's given up and didn't think you'd hit it off and wouldn't work out?
I'm not addicted to YAHOO, I have no particular relationship with YAHOO other then just using it to subscribe to stuff.
How inconsistent and YAHOO has already given up on me and wants to break up with me.

Yeah, you think I talking bull here.
It's like Sex And The City.
What "Michiko Kakutani" says,"Where the men are disposable."
Does it go the same with YAHOO?
I don't know. All up to you to decide.

YAHOO! Mail: The best web-based email!
BULL!

THE END.

P.S. I'm so tempted to get Kuu's 3 SPLASH, the one with that pouch, but I'm dead-broke. J-pop fans out there, I'm sure you've faced the same problems before, give me your suggestions and post them up in that tagbox of mine!

Mahjong Stacking

If you have played Mahjong with me, you'd know what I'd mean.
I'm slow in stacking that 18-19 tiles thing.

I know I became gundu and watched videos to help myself.
(It's not working)

Having the same problem?

But the video wasn't that idiot-proof and also gundu la.
And getting ready for the very 1st MAHJONG MARATHON?
Who is involved in this 1 week bonanza? You know yourself.

Actually in fact I've not decided who to invite.
Only 1 place left. 2 spots have been taken.
WHO AH?

Aiyo, why I talking about Mahjong?
Of course la, my exam results are so depressing that I need to dwell onto something else.

Wah, can use as wallpaper already.
Liddat then won't be depressed all the time.

OOOH YES!

Have I told you about my new hobby?

Yes people, I have taken up NAIL ART.

No, I won't do it 'til Kuu's level.
(That's a good thought)
Not that extreme at least.

EXAMS/Dream Ice-Cream

Yesssshhhhhhhh~ I got my "Dream" phone.
Remember about that other post about Japanese phones and how awesome they look like.
Well, 1 day after I made that post, I had to go to Jurong Point with my mama to buy a printer.

Yeah, remember Home Economics?
It was our only intention, printer and go home.
We ended up spending 3 hours in Jurong Point.
Doing what?

PHONE SHOPPING.
Yeah, why?
My mama's 2-year contract so we took a trip down to Singtel.
I was eying at a SONY ERICSSON PHONE, which I think is W980i I think.
Why? It look alot similar to Japanese phones.
It's got a glass cover and all, it was so cool.
Yeah, I was eying at it.
End up, she didn't get any phone.
Though her contact's ending at end of April.

Since Popular was at the corner, we took a turn and went to look at CDs.
(Yes, it WAS my main intention of going to Popular.)

And walking pass that small Starhub booth in Popular?

I know those above are just empty models but, HAVE YOU SEEN ANYTHING SO CHIO?
I took one good look at it and *gasps*.
IT'S PERFECT!

Sure, it's LG and all. There MUST be problems with the phones somewhere.
I'm gonna betch-slap you-shitbag!
It's perfect. Just perfect.
Envy me...
NOW!
(Just kidding.)

Of course, my contract was ending too, so...
MUAHAHAHAHAHA!
Of course, what colour did I pick?

PINK.

(Didn't I mention my phone was chio?)

It has external lightning too!
(Lavish me more!)

And doesn't it look similar to those in Japan?
Too bad, the phone's from Korea.
(Start laughing, I'm gonna betch-slap you.)
But it does look alot like those Japanese ones right?
Nevermind.

Exams? Hmmm, so far so good.
Nothing to say about exams though I'm feeling darn good that Chinese is over.
That is all. Darn.
CAMP PICTURES!

I circled myself. CLICKABLE!

Again, I circled myself.

Ewww, FBTs. Chrysanthemum TEA!

2009-04-24T08:01:00.000-07:00

I want those super-chio Japanese handphones!

Yes, I went to Japan.
Yes I bought a kimono there. (It's super awesome too!)
No, I didn't try the hot springs. (Cos I'll have to go naked.)
Yes, I SUPER DUPER love the food there.

YES, I PLAYED WITH THE MODEL PHONES AT THE SOFTBANK STORE!

But, the thing that I didn't try is...

I didn't thought about buying a Japanese phone.
Yes, I've done my research.
Some phones ARE compatible here, if you manage to trick them into setting in a foreign SIM card.
OMG, I WANT ONE!

OMG!

EEEEEKK!!!

Yes, you may be thinking, HOW DUMB OF ME to torture myself with the pictures.
But they're super-chio, OKAY?

And what else did I find?! The language and be changed to English too?!
I ain't bluffing, I DID MY RESEARCH!

OMG, I want them.
And I have Kuu's CMs to thank,

Yeah, you know, not only did I love the phone while watching the CM,

I WAS ALSO STARING AT HER NAILS

(Yeah, sure, she's Kuu's fan, of course she'd see them. Now she's gonna talk about Kuu when some of us don't even know who Kuu is.)

As the matter of fact, yes, I am her fan but usually I don't get so attracted to her nails that drives me crazy enough to blog about them.

Yes I know, they're super long, and super awesome as well.
Yeah and then I stared at mine.
If some of you noticed, I used to hate keeping long nails and I always keep short nails.
And now after staring at...

And this,

(Wondering why I didn't show her face.)

I kept my nails quite long, I would have kept them long if it weren't for school.

NEXT POST:
My "interview"
Subject:
My discovery of J-POP and (paste subject here)
some other stuff I forgot.

2009-04-18T01:48:00.000-07:00

Yes, special thanks to my first 2 customers who bought from me.

That item was really expensive though.
Thank you very much.

Exams are just around the corner.
Wanna read some relaxing posts from me.
I'm not sure if I can do it, but I'll try.

GUESS WHAT? (Okay I can't do it)
Singapore has Spring.
This is the first time I actually realized it from the 14 years I've lived here.
And only did when I came back from Japan.

In other countries, changes from Winter to Spring happens almost over night.
The temperature goes up dramatically.
Basically, the flowers start blooming and it rains more.

The difference between THAT and Singapore?
Basically (for some of my readers who don't live in Singapore), you can't really tell that the temperature drops.
Some days it's really warm, some days it's kinda cooling (it happens when it doesn't rain).
But there was a difference from when I left Singapore and came back.

That tree in the middle of the carpark directly outside my bedroom window.
You don't always see flowers on it.
I remember recalling that the flowers on it didn't bloom.
But when I came back. (sorry for the bad picture quality)

There's more at the streets.

Yes, I guess there's spring in Singapore. But nothing like Japan.
(*hint**hint*)

It's Not Here Yet!/Review on Music Project
Okay, I'm not trying to sound weird.

Ta-da! It's been like a week and

It's All Love Is Still Not Here!

Have Avex done something to this?
Is CDJapan slacking? OMG.
I'm totally pissed, what has happened?!

Okay, nevermind that, it SHOULD arrive this week.
If not, panic. S$20 gone.

REVIEW!
Okay, I don't like to judge people.
But since Noel gave me the link to his music project,
I might as well comment on it.

This is a little special, I didn't know they could actually catch everything on video!
I thought we had to do it live?
Anyway, I'll try to it the critics-way (I tried):

Good performance.
Easy to tell a storyline out of it.
Crude humor.
But it was slightly childish and violent.
It has the utmost same storyline as their (or Noel's) performance in literature
the other time.
Overall, very good effort, and I hope to see more of this coming from them.
I give

Two thumbs-up.

Anyone interested in watching the video:

Speech Day
My first "Professional" post. Well, I'm trying.

Oh, we didn't screw up. Screw you if you hoped we did.
Seriously, I crossed my heart that we won't cock up.
And we didn't. Great.

This morning, I got up at 5:32AM. And dilly dally until 6:00AM.
And I was lucky that my accident source, has finished its course.
Yes, it stopped.
So there won't be a red patch at the back of my uniform halfway hentak kaki.

Oh gosh, at 6:08AM and my Dad hasn't returned from his mahjong getaway.
Yes, he wasn't at home since yesterday night.
But thank god he arrived at 6:19AM, exactly at the time I wanted to leave.
A 15 minuted drive to school, and OH YES!

PLEASE REMIND ME THAT SRI BORROWED MY WHITE SOCKS

No idea why she couldn't find her white socks at home though.
Hallelujah, she left her boots in the taxi as well.
Santa Maria!

Oh the drama, she couldn't change into the uniform until Christel arrived.
And so, she was the last person to fall in.

And through-out the wait from 7:00AM fall-in time to 9:00AM, when the guests arrive.
We had ALOT of water breaks. To be honest, this CCA Event was quite slacky.
I like it that way. But at the same, I do wish things would just move faster.

During the parade, glanced over at the band.
Okay, let's see, some familiar people whom I know are playing for the parade.
So far so good, Shermin... Yu Teng... Jolyna...
Eh? Why on Earth did he suddenly end up there?
Okay, let me explain. Si Yuan: If you're offended, I'm sorry. But this shan't hurt.

He told me and Travis that he's not performing for the parade but rather for the concert.
Okay, I was perfectly fine with that.
Liar.
Fine, lets skip the subject.

We stood in our positions and *drum roll*

Mr Bala Returns

He was in sunglasses!
And with Mr Gan beside him. Eww, I made it sound gross.

As I said, we didn't screw up. And easily marched back to the ramp.
I forgot! During one of the breaks we had, was to shift all our stuff to 1N2 classroom.
Surprise, surprise, OAD was already there.
Nothing bad about that but the thought of it just seemed a little awkward.

After the parade, we went back to the classroom, with OAD in there already.
And they suddenly cheered of us, aah kinda proud of myself though. :D
While we were still in our uniform, Mr Wong sent 2 guys to collect water and food.

And burgers from the canteen stall entitled "Lucky Cafe" were distributed.
Still warm some more.
Travis went on about it being too dry by the way.
Honestly I thought they were just fine, the water tasted like shit though.
What to expect from the NEWater system?

While it was going to be a long wait for the guests to leave the school.
Mr Wong started showing us videos taken of us doing the parade and OAD performance.
I kept on staring at myself throughout the parade and thought, "Aah, I looked fat."
According to my mum, a person will always look 10 pounds fatter on tape than in real life.
That expects why Kok Tung sir looked weird.
After that, we went to change back into mufti, alot more comfortable.

And in the process of waiting for the guests to leave.

Adeline suddenly gave a circus performance with the "NEWater".
And failed halfway, reaching down to retrieve it.
It's in the video. WATCH THIS, ZHEN HONG!

Just nice, after her act, we could eat our lunch.
Too bad I couldn't take pictures at it.
But the buffet line(s) looked kinda awesome.
Except the fact that someone dropped a plate of food and didn't bother to clean it up.
That part looked gross though.
Most of the food they served were finger foods.
We didn't want to take plates.
We: Eva, Travis and Adeline.

The trio whose gonna eat all the food.
Okay, I need inspiration on a better name.

There was a pretty long queue for the drinks.
And happened that after we took our share, there were none left.

We gathered back after our meal in the classroom at about 11:30AM.
And we helped to carry all the benches and tables back into the canteen.
You'll never know how exhausting that job actually is until you try it!
After that we took a break like for 1-2 minutes and we had to help to carry potted plants down.

Now I'll just skip until when all of us went home.

Okay, all of us went home. Nothing much there to talk about.

Updates again when there's something interesting to talk about.

:D

Update: 2nd April 2009
Hell yeah, I'm back.

I haven't been posting in like forever.
But I'll definitely post more often. Why?
I've subscribed to nuffnang, and cos I wanted to earn extra more bucks
And adding on to my "E.M.B." plan, I revived my blogshop as well.

I know the stuff are a little expensive, I know you guys probably can't afford them.
PLEASE! Wait for the prices to drop or for me to post cheaper items.
Trust me, I WILL!
And this weekend, I will give my current blog (as you're reading right now) a makeover.
That "Japan Holiday" is already over.
I will blog about the holiday as soon as I get the pictures loaded up.

Recent events on me is, I'm addicted to Lady GaGa's "Poker Face" and Otsuka Ai's LOVE LETTER.
Initially, really the whole album. I'd set the repeat album icon on my disc man and listen to it the whole night.

And about "Poker Face", I'm gonna save up some money, and get "The Fame".
It's only S$11 right? From Popular?

Okay, I've got Speech Day coming up this Saturday, pray for me that I won't screw up or get involved in any accidents. *hint* *hint*

A short update.

Okay, A SUPER SUDDEN NEWS!
The Merlion got struck by lightning, some say it's funny, some gets offended.
Anyway, for everyone's information,
here's a Channel News Asia video talking about it.

2009-02-28T08:48:00.000-08:00

Update: 1 March 2009

Aah, 11 more days to Japan.

Yeah, excited already.

Today I literally slept from 4PM to 9PM.

And don't be surprised, I've had longer nap times in my lifetime so far.

And today I had to go for CIP in Jurong East to hold tins and collect donations.

So if I missed the rehearsal for student council, I'm very sorry.

So I couldn't post any pictures today cos my phone has issues.

So I'll just post a video for everyone.

It's not my video or anything, I just loved it, laughed at it and decided to share it with everyone.

2009-02-21T07:05:00.000-08:00

Update: 22 February 2009

Part 2, oh my god.

Today, if you've already read Travis' blog.

I'M ALSO DAMN PISSED.

In case you didn't know, Georgina actually said my mother,

Godmother of Casey Cheong Wei Shi and Travis Chan (Mali Chan) Chung Gheng,

was "taking advantage" of her money!

Well, I know the words are not good enough to elaborate but,

okay LET ME FREAKING EXPLAIN EVERYTHING PROPERLY.

Today, I went out with Casey, Travis and my mum to VivoCity for

shopping for Travis' winter clothes for Japan.

And of course my mum said it'll be around s$200 for the clothes (well what do YOU expect about winter clothes), and still said it was MORE THAN ENOUGH.

In case you didn't freaking know, or didn't understand Travis' ADVANCED English when he explained to you. She only told and helped him to get like 1 hoodie and about 2 long-sleeved shirts, and personally I think it isn't enough but that's not the point. She was already going VERY BUDGET for YOUR SAKE and after spending money, he still had ALOT of extra balance with him, still want to think it's too much?

Please, my mum is going to be a General Manager, do YOU think she wants your money? And how much do you earn? Think about it la.

And somemore, you claim that my mum's being way nicer to Travis than YOU is because she has an evil motive. Mind you, I don't know if you failed your English or you just don't know about basic cutesy, but seriously YOU ARE AWARE that whatever you say about MY MOTHER will be directed to me through my very good friend, your son, TRAVIS CHAN right?

Obviously, it's most certainly NOT a very nice thing to say.

You should have seen the look on my mum when she heard about it, PLEASE LA, you're just plain jealous, and being simple-minded.

And complaining that submitting S$2000 to my mum for Travis' travel expenses is too much. I mean, didn't he explain to you everything?

You're simply causing yourself to look stupid.

Did you know that transport to and within Japan is very expensive?

Even every other 14 year old in our school (or even anywhere) would know that.

You're one whose decided to allow Travis to go to Japan with us and was willing to pay for his expenses.

And just so you know, my mum has tried her best to go for the lowest prices for hotels and transport in Japan. I think that you're not appreciating the fact that she's eating up her VERY OWN TIME of 11 hours and above EVERY SINGLE DAY to get the lowest prices for all of us. You should AT LEAST understand that she's already putting in alot of effort on this holiday and the internet and electricity bills for using the computer is

PAID BY MY MOTHER EVEN THOUGH THERE'S NO FREAKING SOLE-BREAD WINNER IN MY FAMILY AT THE MOMENT.

Yes, I said it out!

My mum resigned from her job.

Who's the one who's trying to save?

WHO IS THE ONE WHO IS WEALTHIER?

PLEASE, think about others, WILL YOU?!

And you don't even spend time with your children.

Still dare to tell my mum that you regretted not looking after your children like a proper mother. YOU KNOW WHAT?

You still have an income, you're married to a FREAKING RICH french, you're still freaking young and your children are not THAT old either!

Tell you what, YOU STILL HAVE A CHANCE.

You can still show love and care to your children which they suppose to receive from you. THINK ABOUT IT ! And you don't need a 14-year-old like me to tell you THAT right?

And so, you also think my mum's cheating your money.

You are just... TOO MUCH!

My mum is already going to get the job, which includes a pay of about twice of yours and why on earth would she want to take your money of her own use.

PLEASE WAKE UP!

Say no more, I don't want to waste my time on people like YOU.

P.S. We've sent to Travis everything, all the bills, and I'll just let you slowly count if we're really cheating your money.

P.S.S. To Travis, if this is too much, I'm sorry. But I have to defend my mum, and not let such people say such rubbish about her.

P.S.S.S. I know I didn't really blog about our time in VivoCity, but in time, I will. But all I can say now is that we had a great time.

2009-02-20T08:19:00.000-08:00

Update: 21 Febuary 2009

Aah, this is only PART 1.

It's currently 12:20AM and I'm still awake.

You know, I've been thinking about my future lately

and I retook the "major" quiz Jeslyn introduced weeks ago.

Instead of getting my first result "Music", this is what I got:

What Should You Major In?

Your Scholastic Strength Is Evaluating
You are great at looking at many details and putting them all together.You are talented at detecting subtle trends, accuracy, and managing change. You should major in:

Statistics
Speech
Conflict studies
Communication
Finance
Medicine

OK, so in case I haven't told you yet. My new ambition is being a

LAWYER

Boom! I said it!

THE END

2009-02-15T05:15:00.000-08:00

Update: 15 Febuary 2009

It's been 2 weeks, sorry!

Okay, updates again. The first thing I can remember is that, I finally bought

Koda Kumi's Kingdom! I know! It's about time I did. And I'd buy TRICK when

I comes to Popular. And I bought Kingdom from Jia Rong at only $18.

Thanks alot yea?!

FDC? Yeah, about that... I'd rather not publish it on internet

so I'll leave it to you to figure it yourself or ask me personally.

As many have already seen on Travis' blog.

We're going to JAPAN!

And it's freaking true, don't believe?

If I tell you Travis' passport is with me, will YOU believe?

Yeah, you'd better. 'Cos it's true.

Now, I'm slowly catching up on Math.

And my schedule's now wayy clear than it was during FDC.

Thank god all those trainings are over.

But I can definitely say we're more closer as a team,

I know wayy more commands then everyone else NOT in FDC

and I'm more confident now.

Want me to lead the water parade? No problem!

LOL...

Okay, that's all you need to know so far.

Updates as soon as I can use the computer, okay?

2009-01-30T06:54:00.000-08:00

Update: 30 January 2009

A New Year, a NEW life. Updates every week!

Now, the budding part of this year, it has been really stressfull while I juggle with:

FDC, Music Enrichment, Chinese tuition, School, Red Cross, Student Council

Is that scary or what? Not all has been named so stay tuned.

So since this is the case, I've only weekends free. And with that, I'll type out my weekly whereabouts.

First, if you've noticed the few cancel-outs in my wishlist. Yes, I'm a VERY mini-CD collecter with a population of 3 CDs and 4 CD + DVD. Total of 7 albums.

Photo should be below!

Clickable!

The above are my newest albums.

At the top, there's NEWS' color. The black one is the limited edition, white's regular edition. But the limited edition's of Singapore Press, regular is Japan Press.

The bottom left corner is Koda Kumi's Black Cherry, CD + DVD, Singapore Press. Got this from Travis at a very reasonable price of about 13 bucks. But it's worth my allowance!

The last, is Ai Otsuka's LOVE COOK, CD + DVD, Singapore Press. Planning to buy LOVE LETTER when it comes to Popular, 'cause I wanna save money.

Now, those are my most recent CDs. Credits to Amanda for getting me the limited edition of "color". The others are more or less bought from my own money.

My recent status? My legs are killing me!

If you wanna know why, ask me personally, it shows that you read my blog.

So, the whole day today, walking, climbing up/down stair, running and doing footdrill is a pain. I mentally feel that I can do it, but my legs are failing me, and proving me wrong! In fact, I'm not the only one, the whole FDC team is the same.

Right, that's all for this week. Updates again nest week!

2009-01-02T23:59:00.000-08:00

Tea Fight & Touch
Favorites of mine, in Japanese blockbuster.

Sure, when you're travelling. Either to or from Japan, there's bound to be some interest in what their movies or music are like there.

That's when you're on the plane, there's a wide selection of movie you could watch.

If it were me, I'd watch almost every show if I had the time.

So, out of the many shows that I managed to catch.

Two of them, entitled "Tea Fight" and "Touch".

Tea Fightです!

"Touch" です!

And one drama!

"GachiBaka!"

More about this drama, is that it surprisingly stars both Tegoshi Yuya and Masuda Takahisa. I was really surprised to have seen both of them there.

Thus, they look so young, ね!

Mainly because it was filmed in 2005.

Happy New Year

Though it's not here yet.

I do have a few regrets in my life, and a few success stories.

But this year, I thought it was rather a fruitfull year for me.

It was fruitful for my studies, but not so much in friendship.

This year, I've definitely made such cool and awesome new friends.

And friends I could really trust and turn to for help or comfort.

But when sometimes I became slightly too close to them,

I wouldn't notice what I've done wrong that might hust them badly.

So, this post is going to be a bit "wordy" but a big "sorry" to

all whom I've done wrong.

I don't know if those people whom I've hurt, are still reading my blog or not.

But whether they will or not, I will write this post anyway, and forget about bad memories of 2008.

Whether I said, "Please excuse us." to you when you were coming, or gave you a hard time to go through one of the most difficult times of your life.

Please, let me know if I did.

And not criticize me behind my back and saying I have attitude problems.

And I tell you first, those comments will definitely lead back to me.

And probably a loss of reputation to both you and me.

If you have any problems with me, you must let me know.

And I'll do what I can to be a better person.

Just so you know, I come from a family which respect, chinese traditions and how you act and speak at a social occasion is very important.

That's the reason why, I often use the word "Please".

If some of you have noticed.

And so, I'm very sorry to those whom I've hurt or gave a hard time during the whole of this year.

I hope we can forgive and forget those times and start over in the new year.

Sorry, and happy new year.

ゴメンなさいとＨａｐｐｙ　Ｎｅｗ　Ｙｅａｒ．

2008-12-27T07:43:00.000-08:00

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Too Little too late...

School's startin' in less than a week.

My mum got me to throw away some of my old Sec 1 stuff ~~more like memories~~

to clear up a little of space for the new Sec 2 stuff.

Today's already the 27th of December, and I wished everyone throughout the

month, I think.

Sorry, no 「color」 and 「LOVE COOK」today because I freakin' forgot where I put

my camera! (Later my mum would think why she bought me a camera for.)

For the coming New Year 2009, I should be excited 'cos, I should admit,

it's a pretty fruitful year for me this year. And I hope 2009 copies it.

Next year, because I'm in the FDC team, I'll be getting my promotion earlier then

everyone else who's not in the FDC team.

Other good stuff, we're excused from the regular Friday training for a few times.

And if we won a title, additional 2 training excuses free.

And so, I hope I get promoted to something good next year.

If some of the Sec 1's done well, we could become "Corporal" without needing

to become "Lance Corporal".

Depends on the NCO's to decide that.

That's all I wanna blog about. And good night, everyone.

Have a merry, merry christmas!

2008-12-23T06:36:00.000-08:00

color has arrived

No pictures at the moment 'cos I'm sorry.

I'm lazy.

So that means, one of my checklist items are checked out.

And just a few days ago, I bought Ai Otsuka's LOVE COOK.

I know I'm a little out dated, but I saw it and just wanted to have it.

THE END.

P.S. MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE!

2008-12-22T05:43:00.000-08:00

Play-time!

Yeah, I can't think of a better title, but oh nevermind.

As probably many of you know, I learnt to type Japanese on my computer.

So I'm gonna create some names for you guys.

Something like converting you english names to Japanese.

Eva Tan = 端飯ヴぁ (tan iiva)

Jeslyn Goh = 語じぇス燐 (go jesurin)

Travis Chan = チャン津らヴィス (chan turavisu)

Eunice Goh = 語いウにス (go i-unisu)

Jocelyn Gwee = ぐい序ス燐 (gu-i josurin)

Casey Cheong (HARD!!) = チェおぐ計市 (che-o-gu keisi)

Jessica Soh = そジェ市か (so je-si-ka)

I'm really running late for something now. If you wish to know your own name and wish to get me to convert it for you. Let me know!

At least I have something to do this holiday.

2008-12-11T21:45:00.000-08:00

Color

In case you didn't know. I didn't buy Color from Japan as I said I would.

Due to a stupid flight change, from Singapore Airlines to Japan Airlines.

The departure time was also earlier.

And stupid enough, the terminal that I was at, didn't have cd shops.

But the last time I was there, I so did see one, okay?!!?

They were still selling Happy Birthday somemore, at 1800 yen!

Kuu's and Ayu's cd was also there, just to let you know.

Way cheaper then when they arrive in Singapore.

And so, disappointed, I returned to Singapore, with no flying colors.

And I was so excited that HMV would sell Color at a good price.

Surprise, surprise!

It's S$66.90 !!

STUPID STUPID STUPID!

Yes, just so you know, I never really bought J-pop cds in HMV before. If I wanted one, just nice, my birthday was coming, so Stephanie bought Pacific for me.

And not telling how much it was.

And then just recently, I asked how much it was before I went to HMV, she said she couldn't remember.

And S$66.90 came as a BIG SHOCK to me.

And so, after this good story telling, and my quite-a-bad experience in Narita.

I just checked out cdjapan.com, which is rumored that they sell cds at great prices, I thought that was really great, after my heartache of expensive-ness.

And I tell you first, I'm intending to buy the limited edition one, and this time, Japanese edition only.

It's definitely cheaper than HMV, I thought.

2857 yen = S$45.80.

Ahh, I can afford it now.

And I called my mum, and she kinda approved of it.

She was like really mad when I told her it was $66.90, though.

And so, I will 99% order it. Wish me luck on getting my mum's approval tonight!

THE END.

P.S. I totally cracked up when my maid mistaken Tegoshi for a girl, and quoted he was pretty. LOL.

100th Post

Incredible? Well, if you think so.

Yes, as the title says, this is my 100th post. No big deal about it 'cos I know I'm a very boring person in my blog. But a whole different person if you know me in person. Boring as it is, I'm 'celebrating' this achievement by listing down all my current favorite songs below in music box format. Anyone wanna listen, be my guest. I will label the song title and artist if you wanna know.

Koda Kumi - stay with me

Tegomasu - Chocolate

Koda Kumi - TABOO

Ai Otsuka - Kurage, Nagareboshi

NewS - Fiesta

THE END.

Anne Arundel Community College -Part 2-
Yes, I've seen more of what it's gonna be.

The campus is freakishly HUGE! There's like a building for each subject. And how many subjects are we currently studying? 9 already !!

Below are the pictures of part of the campus. So Jeslyn, you'd better be more excited now!

There's also a short video down there, and you can tell that I'm shivering while holding the camera because it's freaking cold!

THE END.

Anne Arundel Community College

Better known as AACC in Odenton, Baltimore.

Yeah, that's my future College that Jeslyn and I are going to when we graduate from JWSS. For now, I only went to the branch. As in part of the school, probably the subject classrooms or labs or whatever. I haven't seen the main part and the campus. But I will, lar. The pictures of the school will be posted below. Get excited, and you'd better, Jes.

Yes, it seems small. But it's really bigger than it looks, okay?!

USA

Yay! I'm in USA!

But this is my 4th night already. And 3rd morning.

Sorry, I didn't blog for these few days. Seriously, I'm very tired everyday after going to roller coasters and all that. So after showering, I drop dead.

And stupid me, I brought my camera to actually blog about the events but I forgot to bring my stupid cable. So I can't blog. But I'll just at least update the blog once under a blue moon.

Okay, gotta go now. And by the way, I'm blogging at 9 AM on Saturday morning in the states, the current time of Singapore and the time in blogging is 10 AM on Saturday.

THE END.

Happy 21st Birthday, 手越祐也!

Yes, Tegoshi is 21 today!

A very Happy Birthday to him.

So, I've edited another picture of him to post today. Something similar to Ryo's. But this one looks nicer. I think.

Yes, it's a screenshot of the PV "Happy Birthday".

Here's a trivia on what I know about him. I'm quite a big fan so I should know more about him than Ryo. Biased.

FUN FACTS !

His bandmates often describe him as being "harmlessly self-centered."
His mother and grandmother are his greatest fans and stick his posters all around the house.
He is a fan of L'Arc~en~Ciel.
He is very close friends to Takahisa Masuda, and spends even the days off with him, going to the gym and train together and go to a sentō afterwards.
He has played soccer for over 10 years.
His eye sight is not very good, so he often wears contact lenses.
He owns a Papillon dog named Tinny.
He also has his license and can drive. During 2006-2007, he barely passed his driving test.

There's also alot more that I know about him, but how would you aspect me to type everything out? I'm not like Travis or Eunice. (Sorry, I think you guys can type, ALOT)

P.S. I'm leaving Singapore soon for US. But this is not my last post. I will still be posting at the states.

P.S.S. If you wanna contact me, please sms me, DO NOT CALL ME. Or my bill would shoot up. If you don't have a phone, you can email me at eva.tan.95@hotmail.com .

A New Vest / Sentosa Outing / Talent Agency

Thanks to Jeslyn, one of my wishlist items is striked out.

Yes, Sec 1 Red Cross outing at Siloso Beach. Pictures later.

I wanna join a talent agency, for singing, who wants to take me in while I'm still young?

Special Thanks to Jeslyn for getting me this vest!

Please tilt your head for better results.

Honestly, it's almost exactly what I wanted. SPECIAL thanks to Jeslyn for this!

Sentosa Outing

So, I don't wanna make this too wordy. So I'll just post pictures and explain the scene below it.

Oh, the beach!

The word "Siloso".

They're swimming. I didn't bother going in cos' I didn't bring extra clothes.

Christel being buried in sand. Half body treatment.

Aliyah buried in sand. Full treatment.

Yeah, that's all the things I wanna blog about, cos' I'm lazy to blog some more.

Nevermind, maybe I'll blog more next time.

Talent Agency

It's now in my wishlist.

I wanna join a talent agency! I think my talent for singing id strong enough to be considered so, I should join one!

If anyone wanna consider me or recommend me an agency, please do.

THE END.

Ding-Dong

Yes, it's by Tokio. But it's fabulously awesome, okay?

"Ding-Dong" by Tokio. It's a pretty old song, probably during around 2003-04.

It's a Christmas Song actually. And it'd be one of my blog songs for this christmas.

How I discovered it? So, earlier today I was watching ya-ya-yah as usual.

And they performed this song, it sounded really nice!

So I'd thought I should put it up for everyone to see.

The music box is below and you can just go ahead and play it.

Remember to pause the current song playing before you listen to this!

Obama Won / Red Cross Training Report

Yes, Obama won the election. Sorry, no humor here.

So, I got an SMS from my ex-classmate, Aishwarya, saying that Obama won.

NO surprise here actually, McCain was already far from winning against him.

And I once read an article about how much money (US$) they spent on their "campaign". Seems like Obama spent around US$6 billion, whilst McCain spent US$450,000. Obvious on who should be winning the election now.

Right, now on Red Cross. Today's the third training session of the week.

About one more day to go! I think.

Yesterday, we were doing Footdrill the whole day. And after our bronze, we took our SILVER! Not everyone passed though.

Actually, in a squad, in threes, we were asked to march forward and then later back again. Those people who are asked for their name, actually passed silver already.

And guess what, I WAS!!

So, after everyone tried out on our first attempt, some people's names (9 of us only) were called out, and were asked to sit at one corner, and watch the others suffer.

And so after watching them march a bit, the few "chosen" ones, including me, were starting to practice for GOLD! It was actually really fun lor.

Today, we had to do our Outdoor Activities Theory and Practical so all of us brought maggi (instant noodles) for cooking later.

So, we spent the first 2 hours in the classroom doing our theory first.

And then going to the carpark for our practical.

We started the fire, cook the maggi, add seasoning and start eating.

(Sorry, I suddenly lost interest in writing)

Anyway, everyone passed the practical BUT

I FAILED THE THEORY! (At least I heard my name.)

And not everyone passed it anyway. That means my Friday is gone.

GOD BLESS ME, PLEASE!!

Happy 24th Birthday to 錦戸亮 (Nishikido Ryō)

I didn't realise it until just now. How comical.

Yes, Happy 24th Birthday to 亮君~.

I really didn't realise it until just now. Well, I'm not a really a big fan of his but I'll try my best to make a dedication.

Hmm... It's amazing how he's active in both NewS and Kanjani Eight.

本当すごいよ, ね?

I'm not a fan of Kanjani Eight either but I can still say what he's like in NewS.

-He's best friends with 山P, they often go out together.

-He likes 手越 alot. I don't know why either.

-He has a high sense of pride, and gets embarrased when people compliment him like, "You're cute." or "We love you!" which are usually said by the fans but I don't agree anyway.

Yeah, that's all I know about him. I already told you, I'm not a big fan of his so I don't know much about him. Just for today, I photoshopped a picture of him. And it should be below.

New Olympus Digi-cam

I've got a new camera! All thanks to my mom!

I just got it yesterday. It's blue, dark blue. Like I had a choice for many colours, I chose blue cos' Harvey Norman only had two colours.

Black and Blue. Which one would YOU choose?

Obviously blue, right? I mean like, black is a bit too common. And if I were to lose it and left it somewhere in my room, it'd be pretty easy to find it, right? And by the way, the black really looks very BLACK!

I wanted either pink or red, actually. You know, some colour that's eye-catching.

Some camworing (LOL, priceless spelling) time!

Tested it out on Ashley.

There it is! Mind my face, I know it's hideous.

Btw, this is how my blog, by right, should look like. If you don't have this result...

GO AND UPGRADE YOUR COMPUTER LA!

My NEW Online Diary

Confused? Yes, I know.

This new online journal is something that I created for fun and I hope you people would go and check it out the link is:

http://emiko-luvsushi.livejournal.com/

Do check it out! And I would have to say that I'll be spending more time posting there instead of here. One reason for that is because, I called it a "Online Diary".

Just like any other diary, any other child would hide. Probably under their matteresses or something. Just that mine's special, it's online!

So, do check it out when you got time. And let me know what you guys think about it! I'm awesome, got guts to actually have an online diary that's free for everyone to read and there might be ~~juicy~~ secrets in there!!

Best Birthday Party Ever Held
At least the best that I ever organized.

BBQ at West Coast wasn't a very a good idea of mine. What was I thinking?! Well, at least everything turned out fine. And I guess everyone did have a good time. And here are shitloads of pictures that we took.

Shermin and Jolyna kissing her bbq-ed corn.

The "playground". If you see closely, they're actually playing there.

"Random food that I took" number 1.

Glenn and Jeslyn who came specially for the chicken wings.

A picture that I took without their permission. XD

One of the main cooks of the day. Who made specialties like the food below.

Blogger rating: 1 star. The food looks horrible!

Random picture of them having their lunch again.

Look at the sausage in Amanda's mouth (the one in light pink). LOL!

Candid shot! LOL-ed at Jolyna and Firzana.

Travis and Glenn is love with chicken wings.

Casey looks too lesbian. I can't believe I didn't notice it! Everyone looks chio though!

Jeslyn looks really funny!! Ashley's looking away!

Aww... Best Friends Forever!! My pimples loko hideous!

Yay! Candid shot!!

This experience was really great. Very happy and satisfied about it.

増田 a Rabbit !?

Another hilarious commercial for Lawson that I found. Massu turns into a rabbit? Yeah, he was like "piong, piong" in rabbit make-up. Trust me, he looks nothing like Roger. Seriously funny!

Unfortunate Events / Lawson
May contain inappropriate words of vulgarity.

Today, quite a lot of great and amazing things happened today. I was ALMOST late for school today. And I didn't do duty 'cos I wasn't there yet! But in exchange of what happened earlier, I chose to sing on the first row in our morning "choir". The reason why I was late? Very simple, my father couldn't even START THE CAR! I went down to the car park at my usual time, 6:40 am. Then we spent almost 10 minutes waiting for the damn car to react to our "cries"! (But to no avail) Due to that, I ran to the bus stop, waited approximately 5 minutes for the bus to react to my cries. And a god-damned 15 minutes for the bus to finally arrive at the MRT station, I stormed all the way to school. Luckily I made it approximately 5 minutes before the bell rang. I was "SOOO LUCKY". Then the rest of the day was okay, then until in the middle of Math class... Preethi and Aishah appeared at our doorstep. I remembered saying in my head, "Cancel training! Cancel training!" as I walked towards them. When Preethi said, "There's no training on today, tomorrow and er.. Friday."

YAHOO! Hallelujah!

So happy. I felt like faint. Until, the SC meeting at the AVA room. I still felt faint. They were saying something about our performance during duties and saying that the result of the confirmed councillors from being trainees will be out tomorrow...
I really do hope that I do become a confirmed councillor, it'd be very embarrasing if I didn't make it. Well, all I can do now is hope for the best!

Now, I found this very amusing commercial that NewS did for this food product called "Lawson". And the part when Tegoshi was stuck climbing a tree was very amusing. The video is below so, do watch it!

The BBQ Pit is AWESOME

CREDITS to Jeslyn for helping me find the website.

I'm lucky that the place wasn't fully booked.

Today, went to the immigration to collect my new passport. Sorry, can't post any pictures of it. It's private. Other than that, I went to West Coast to check out the BBQ pit that I booked. The area is uber cosy and HUGE! The pictures are below, and I will describe what will be planned to be placed there.

The road to the party. Beautiful scenery eh?

MY BBQ pit.

The number. BBQ pit 6.

The other table on the same BBQ pit.

The cooking area. Where the food will be cooked.

The whole table, cooking area. That table beside the pit is where the food will

be placed ready for everyone to eat.

This area is just beside the whole BBQ pit. Where a tent will be pitched for people to cool down and probably for Ashley to sleep in when she's tired.

Once again, credits to Jeslyn for helping me find the website. The congrats to myself that I was able to find an available pit on that Sunday. Seems that after I booked, there were no other pits available. Consider myself lucky.

That's all for today. Have a great week ahead.

P.S. You will get your invites by either tomorrow or Wednesday. If not, then you're not invited.

P.S.S. All invites are to report back to me by Thursday whether they can make it or not.

P.S.S.S. If you don't know how to go, let me know EARLY!

2008-10-18T21:18:00.000-07:00

West Coast BBQ Pit is BOOKED

The date is on 26th Oct 2008, West Coast Park, Sunday. The time is yet to be confirmed. But most likely, we will be spending the afternoon there.

If cannot be seen clearly, let me know and I will email a bigger picture for you.

I will post more information on this as soon as something comes up. For now, wait for your invites.

Happy Birthday Lyrics As Promised

KANJI

お金じゃ買えたいだからこそ

気持ちで伝える宝物

恥ずかしいがらず｢おめでとう｣と

言葉でいうよ０時丁度

※生まれた事出逢えた事

今傍にいれる事｢ありがとう｣

君の Happy Birthday 1年に一度の魔法特別な日※

今日１年に一度重要度世界一の

大切な君の記念日また1つ綺麗に

年を重ねる事は思い出増えるって事だ

だから嬉しい言葉君だけに贈るよほら

何千何億の中で君と逢えた事奇跡だね

こんな近くにいる幸せ君の為に歌うよ

(※くり返し)

君が居るから笑っていられる

今日はいつもより素直になれる

世間的には普通の日何も変わらず映るのに

僕にとっては空気の味さえも特別風味よ

とびきりの笑顔に会いたいしかめつらとはバイバイ

MY LOVE 君の為に送るよ力の限り

今までどれだけ泣いたって今笑える幸せがあって

共に居れる今日の Happy Birthday 君の為に歌うよ

(※くり返し)

1人じゃここに居られなかったよきっと

来年も再来年も同じ日君に会いにいくよ

神様のプレゼント

君の Happy Birthday 君の未来に幸あれ

(※くり返し)

ENGLISH

Exactly because I can't buy them with money

Treasures that can be expressed by feelings

I'll say it in words, "Happy Birthday"

Without feeling embarrassed at exactly 12 midnight

WoW WoW Wow Yeah Yeah

WoW WoW Wow Yeah Yeah Yeah

For being born

For being able to meet you

That I can be by your side now

Thank you

It's your HAPPY BIRTHDAY

A magical, special day that happens only once a year

Today is the momentous once-a-year anniversary

Of you who is the most important in the world

Yet another one in beauty

The piling up of years

Is the multiplication of memories

That's why I'll send beautiful words

Only to you, look!

I'm happy that in the many thousands and hundred millions

We could have such a miracle as our meeting

And be this near

I'll sing for you

Because you're here I can laugh

and be more honest than usual today

An ordinary day to the rest of the world

Fishing as per normal, yet

To me even the taste of the atmosphere has a special flavor

I especially want to meet your smile

Bye-bye to grimaces

With the extent of my power, I'll send you my love

How many times have you cried up till now

The happiness where we can laugh now is safe

Today's HAPPY BIRTHDAY where we can be together

I'll sing for you

I didn't leave you here alone

Definitely next year and the year after too

I'll go to meet you on the same day

A present from god

Your HAPPY BIRTHDAY
All the best for your future

はい, 皆大好き!!

誕生日おめでとう!!

Vest?

Today there's nothing much to blog about except the fact that I was working today that's why I wasn't online the whole day. But this post is just to post out a picture of a vest because Jeslyn doesn't know what it is. Okay, so the vest that I have in mind that is on my wish-list looks a little something like this:

Yes, that's a vest. Not a good picture of it but, who cares?

Okay, so Jeslyn I hope you now understand what a vest is. But one that I have in mind is black so if you're gonna buy me one, please buy a black one and it has to be at most adult size M. I can also wear small but if you want it to last longer on me, please buy a size M. That's all for tonight, and really am tired from working today.

P.S. Casey, please take note that you always call people at the wrong time. No offense.

はい, 皆はおやすみ!!

Kimi No Happy Birsuday

2008-10-10T08:29:00.000-07:00

"君の Happy Birsuday"

Hello, just another ordinary post again. Maybe I should just quit releasing songs, I don't know. I think I've decided to halt the releases until my voice is back in shape. It's turning husky due to lack of water and food (probably) so if you love me too much that you can't stop listening to my songs, do request for a 'LIVE' from me when you see me in school. Today's actually the first day of CCA after the cramming of exams. We had our Outdoor Activities (Bronze) Theory which we were only given 10 to study. But actually I think it tests mroe on your ability on Geography, I think it's quite alright I guess but since we studied Geography on the earlier part of the year, I am a little bit rusty now. But there's a 50-50 chance that I would pass. Then, after that test, it was supposed to be the FootDrill test (Bronze), sorry I don't know the formal full name of this test. They were saying that we were going to do some practices first then they'll start the test. But after some time of practice, I noticed they were jolting down something while we were 'practicing'. I don't know, is the test over yet? No one knows.

After school, Jeslyn, Jessica, Gerard and Roger stayed back to try finishing the packaging of the products that were going to be sold on Monday's flea market in the canteen. In the end, they managed, so we need not meet on Saturday to finish.

Speaking of Monday, it's probably going to be the best day of the year! We are going to have normal lessons BUT what the teachers are going to teach us is still a mystery! There may be chances that we would be learning new languages, if it were to be a Japanese class. TRUST ME, I could even TEACH the damn class. I mean, my Japanese is quite strong now, I can mildly understand what they're saying WITHOUT the subtitles. And I can read KANJI, a little bit.

Other than all of the written above, I'm very excited to announce that my new blog song is "Happy Birthday" by NewS. My birthday's coming up very soon and I'm only days away from turning THRIFTY THIRTEEN. So, I'd probably post the lyrics another time and please note that the title of the post above is something that I figured out myself, it does have a meaning so this definitely shows my awesomeness in 日本語. Please check the wikipedia for the meaning.

おやすみ!

さようなら, みな!!

P.S. Jeslyn said 山P looks like a goldfish and 手越 and 増田 is always smiling in their album covers.

2008-10-05T10:22:00.000-07:00

Pacific has arrived!
Yes, my most treasured album has arrived.

Below are some snapshots of it. Sorry but only the front and back.

First Single Released, 片思いの小さな恋

I have to warn you, this single that I've released has no

background music because I couldn't find it.

A "brand new" me, a brand new artist

Huge announcement! I'm a new artist in soundclick.com! Which means I get to record my own songs and then release it. See the charts to know how I'm rated. I'm under the J-pop category so see how I'm ranked against others who sing too. I will post a new post here when I release a single. And don't be surprised, the songs would be Japanese and I would most probably sing ballad songs. See my page in the link below:

Karaoke Fever

Yesterday, Jeslyn, Eunice, Travis and me went to K Box at Jurong East to sing karaoke. And I was surprised that they had J-pop songs as well. And so we sang our hearts out, and had loads of fun. Price of $14.50 per person, included lunch. And I was lucky to have ordered coke before I knew it was free flow. Unfortunately, Jeslyn and Eunice ordered lemon tea which wasn't free flow. So they drank out of mine. It really was fun, we should definitely go back there again. I recommend everyone, the price is worth it all!

さようなら!

Weeeek Parody

こんにちは!! Today is the 1st Oct 2008, first of all, just wanted to wish all muslims a Selamat Hari Raya Puasa! And well, no money to give green packet, sorry! Another video recommend, this video is on NewS' music video "Weeeek" but turned into a parody. It's really amusing and hilarious if you're able to read the subtitles before they disappear. And since it's still afternoon, I haven't left to watch "MAMMA MIA" yet, but I will later. For now, enjoy this hilarious video and post your comments on the tagbox for me to see. Enjoy!

I'll post about the movie later. By the way, if you're wondering what song this is, it's "Weeeek" by NewS.

P.S. 象は鼻が長いです!

さよなら!!

Miso Soup-pu!

Exams are finally over! Can play to my heart's content now. I was curious about the English version of 'Miso Soup' by Tegomasu that Travis mention about so I went to look up. It was really funny by how they pronounced the words. Here's the video and check it out yourself!

And below is the Japanese version whish sounds way~ better.

Besides miso soup, about the exams!

The exams were overall easy. The english paper was alright, so was the chinese, and science, and ... OK never mind. I lost my motivation on exams... -_-

Sorry but that's all for today. Updates another day *smiles*.

いいですか？

はい, さようならです!

今晩は!! (good evening!!/konban wa!!)

Today's post was earlier than expected. It is now 5th Sept 2008, 1:12AM. I guess I'm not so into sleeping now and more into napping in the afternoon. But the most unexpecting thing that happened yesterday was that I was woken up by a "おはようございます" (good morning/ohayo gozaimasu) from nowhere, turning japanese already aren't I? But a few exciting photos today.

These photos below are on last Friday, when I went back to Rulang on Teachers' Day. We went to McDonald's after that to have lunch, so I took a few 'candid' photos.

Here's Jocelyn. ^_^

I guess Jocelyn was talking to Weilin until the guys behind her disappeared.

The table of Michel, Kailyn and Huili. Oh there's one more person missing. ~~Oh screw that!~~

Oh here we are at the playground. Nothing much to talk about in this picture.

OH yes! Earlier today, my mum got me a new 'mouse' for this Windows Vista notebook!

It's uber-chio! If you open up your eyes you could actually see it glowing out. Everytime you touch it, colours will appear and it's multi-coloured!! And the jewellery added there is completely extra and it was just decoration for this.

By the way, I'm going to change by blogskin soon. Maybe by the time you see this post, the blogskin is already up. Here's a screenshot of it!

So please look forward to it!!

That's all for tonight. お休みなさい(good night/oyasumi-nasai), and have a pleasant holiday ahead!

ありがとう!! (thank you!!/arigatō!!)

Hey guys. I'm really sorry for not posting to very long. From today till EOY is only about 2 weeks. And a even closer date to english oral. So I've got very little to post today.

It's currently Thursday morning, 4th Sept at 2:48 am. I simply slept through the whole day so I couldn't go to sleep. Nothing much happened during the holidays, but I'm so gonna miss our sitting arragements for term 3 in class. Khairil is amazingly hilarious, Jeslyn is more or less the best gag in our 'group', Syafiq is always the middle of our chattiness. I'm really gonna miss it so much, but we can still contact each other (Duh!).

Anyway, here are the music videos to listen during the rainy days. I recommend! The names and artists of the songs are stated below. Read the kanji if you know how. If not, sorry.

アイアイ傘 by テゴマス

なんとかなるさ by ニュース

Other than that, songs without music videos but are still recommended.

何度も by 青山テルマ

Summer Time by ニュース

Heavenly Days by 新垣结衣

Baby Don't Cry by 安室奈美恵

That's all for tonight. Already getting kind of sleepy so I'll end off with this.

アイアイ傘, 何度もの愛 !!

Secrets Revealed!

Hello everyone, today's post is gonna be very shocking. Keep yourself ready as I reveal my first 10 personal secrets to all my readers. You may or may not find it shocking but at least you know more about my private self. *Drum roll*

I love to eat durians.

I prefer sleeping on the floor than the bed.

I am not allergic to spice.

I love the smell of money.

I think one of the Japanese duo "Tegomasu" is really cute.

I sometimes don't enjoy hanging out with friends.

I don't always brush my teeth before going to bed.

I actually like the colour yellow.

I don't like having long hair.

I usually don't miss school during holidays.

The truth is all OUT! If I've hurt any one's feelings, I'm terribly sorry about that but if you read further on, I have reasons to follow on.

1. I love to eat durians.

Actually I don't hate the smell of durians. I'd be the first one to eat the durians when my parents bring the home.

2. I prefer sleeping on the floor than on the bed.

To me, the floor is cooler and even with the mattress, it still feels 'shiok'.

3. I am not allergic to spice.

Yeah, actually I don't like eating spice. I once had this theory that when I eat spice, my tongue would go on fire. In short form, I don't like chili.

4. I love the smell of money.

*laughs* I have to admit. I'm a bit of a money face, I love it when big amounts of cash is mine but I hate it if I happen to lose it.

5. I think one guys from the Japanese duo "Tegomasu" is cute.

Yeah, his name is Yuya Tegoshi. I think he has a really cute face. Other than that, his singing is actually quite good too. Don't think I'm some fan girl!! Cos' I'm not.

6. Sometimes I don't enjoy hanging out with friends.

This fact only applies when I'm asked to go out and watch a movie, library etc. Sometimes I tend to be lazy and don't feel like going out to have fun. But there still are chances that I would go. And at other times, I'd rather stay at home and blog.

7. I don't always brush my teeth before going to bed.

Well, so far you can tell that I'm a very lazy person. So, when I feel tired and goes to sleep, end of the day, don't disturb the queen at her sleep.

8. I actually likes the colour yellow.

I think I'm a cheerful person so I do like yellow. Say no more.

9. I don't like having long hair.

I think having long hair is quite stressful and more dandruff appears when you don't take take of it properly, so troublesome.

10. I don't really miss school during holidays.

I love the holidays. They may be boring but not as boring as lessons! When nearing the start of the school term, I actually wished the holidays were longer.

Hi, so sorry for not blogging nowadays. Have been really busy lately, too many tests on the way. And so at the midst of my relaxation at home, I managed to blog. Nothing interesting to blog about, so I'll just show some edited pictures, recent favorites of mine which I would want to share. And I suggest that to be able to watch/listen to my "favorites", you'll have to pause the blog song. Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

This video is about an interview with the voice actor of "Pikachu". She's really cute!

Singer Yuya Tegoshi and Takahisa Masuda from Japanese duo "Tegomasu" appears in Japanese talk show "Hey hey hey". Very funny!

That's all for today! Sorry! It's a short one, I know. I'll post another time, ya?

Wow, more than a week goes by so fast. Anyway, two topics I'm going to touch on today. One is Friday's popiah party and Saturday's 2nd August RCY Recognition Day 2008.

Friday

After a long day at school, we just waited for my dad to show up at school gate. And so, getting bored, Casey, Christell and Sri had a water fight. Half an our later, he finally showed up, and Christell and Sri disappears! And so, after several stops. We finally came to the house, and a few UNFORGETABLE MOMENTS !

The perfect popiah

The imperfect popiah. Put chicken bone here.

The perfectly assorted table. Put Casey here.

After the feast, we just went to my room. And they simply trashed it out, and so the day's over with Jeslyn and Ashley on my queen-sized bed.

Saturday

I did feel bad for leaving Jeslyn at home and I went for the Recognition Day as supporters.

I don't have much time to post about the whole story so I'll just post pictures. We had to wear full uniform there.

Sri, on the Mass Rapid Transit.

Sri and Adeline on the Mass Rapid Transit.

Adeline in her uniform typing something on phone. Yasmin changed back to mulfti.

Hidayu in uniform.

Our mini group photo. I'm on the left!

Alrights, that's all for tonight!

Hi everyone! It's a Saturday morning, 11:33 AM on the 26th of July. What to say? Where to start? OK, yesterday was the day that we had to wear full Red Cross uniform. Why? Probably because it was promotion day yesterday. And I did a BAD thing by stealing pictures from Mardiyah's blog. Very sorry about that but I just wanted the pictures. Anyway, other that the NCO's promotions, we also took group photos. Guess what? It was freaking WET yesterday and during the first group photos we, the Sec 1, are to stand on the table whilst the Sec 2 stand on the chairs. And there's no surprise that the tables and chairs are wet. We were wearing uniform that day so we were so darn worried that we would fall backwards. Two reasons why, number 1, it was wet, number 2, there were only 2 tables which means we had limited space, we all had to squeeze in and we were really REALLY close to each other PHYSICALLY.

Here are snapshots.

Formal snapshot. 1st row: Sing Onn, Aishah, Preethi, Mary, Mr Wong, Ms Pang, Ms Tan(s)
2nd row are the NCOs, 3rd row are the Sec 2s, 4th row is the Sec 1s. See how high we are? Good.

Informal. Red Cross!! LOL.

Promotion Ceremony. That's Preethi *whose back is facing the camera*. And that's Aishah *whom Preethi is facing*

Sing Onn and Mr Wong. Wonder what there are looking at. Never mind that, at least they know to act cool in front of camera.

THE SENIORS!! I have no idea where we were when they were taking the snapshot. Anyway, they look good.

That's all for today. Logging out now.

Hello people! Sorry about the previous post... I didn't keep my promise... I'm very sorry about that. Anyways, got lots of time to blog today, and loads of things to blog about... :DD

Last week, we (sec 1) took our Red Cross Youth knowledge test, bronze i think, it was darn surprising as i didn't think it would be on that very day, and so all of us were like quickly rushing thru and memorising as much as possible... Surprisingly for me, the test was darn easy, and i was so looking forward to the results. Other than that, I can't remember what other things we did that day.

Monday, nothing much happened on Monday i guess... at least nothing interesting happens. We were supposed to have extra science class but then Ms Tan was like, "Class, science class is CANCELLED, please go for your 'Let's Play' programme." I was like, "What the hell?!" I don't want to go for 'Let's Play', and our activity is what, touch rugby! I hate rugby! I bet I'll NEVER be good at it! And so, I didn't bring my PE shirt and so my whole class, except for Jolyna, had to brisk-walk 5 rounds on the field, stupid.

FRIDAY!! That morning i had a hard time going to school! i had so many things to carry.
Uniform, boots, thin socks... what not? okay, in school we didn't do anything much. I stayed back in school with Travis and Casey to polish our boots nice, nice. When i saw Casey's nice, shining boots, i really wondered how the hell she could do that. And so she helped us polish our boots 'til god knows when. Then, Jeslyn, Eunice and Glenn came back to the school, if I'm not wrong Jeslyn too helped with the polishing, don't worry ok? Next week, we'll have to wear again so, Jeslyn you'll still have the chance. But we did our part of polishing them too ok? When cca started, they told us to later change into our full uniform, after they found out all of us, except Travis, and so we didn't have to change, instead they just checked the uniform and that's it. A waste of people's effort to polish boots, i think Casey's kiwi shoe polish almost finished can? Then we were told to run back to our stuff at the cyber cafe to get coloring materials then we had to draw somethin that's related to health. (Well this IS Red Cross so it's normal for us to talk about health.) Guess what? I drew 8 big healthy words!

"AN APPLE A DAY, KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY!"

Oh, I'm so proud! After that, we had to learn the RC song, I know I was already singing very loud but yet I'm standing on the 3rd row of the squad, people don't know what? Stupid of me to stand behind, if not I would long be singing cheers. After that we had our "Master Parade" (i think that's how its spelt, if wrong please do correct me) we were standing behind NCC at first and suddenly, "Red Cross, fall in infront of NCC!". Wow, NCC must be like really "pai-seh". And we sang the national athem after that, the RC song that we were learning. Then, Ms Pang later said we had to fall in for CCA next week in full uniform. Oh darn it! Must send go dry-cleaning already. When we left the school compound, me, Travis, Jeslyn, Amanda and Casey was taking pictures of ourselves in a void deck infront of A LIFT! And so, snap snap snap, good-byes after that.

That's all for today, hope to post sooner or later.
