HALLOWEEN O7!
MUDDY MUCH?
FACILS ROCK!
CRANK THAT SEC 2/4!
CGYC stockbroker look-alikes
INT'L CANOSSIAN FAMILY
JOYFUL JOYFUL 06 museam!!

ok i had this urge to blog. which almost never happens, so yeah.

its friday of the so called 'holidays' and i swear i havent done anything.
stayed up till 3 this morning reading so i can finally get my 30 words for vocab..
so now i cant be bothered to do anything else.

anyhoo,

monday was leaders for leaders training session.
awesome time, though it wasnt that big of a training session.
hung out in MPR with nic, sarah, sharon, peirong...and got juniors to sing the school song over and over and OVER again...and then over the campus. HAHA. i love my job. seriously.
i LOVE working with the facils..its nice working with team players..they're so on, it makes life so much easier.. last minute planning rocked!
was in sch at like...10 was it? to do shoes. haha. and tadaa! the shoe factory was founded.

i must say, we're pretty damn good.

after chem on tues, 13 girls trodded back to my teeny weeny living room to continue our shoe labour. with pizza!! gossip much? the second the front door opened, sarah, amanda and pat hopped onto my dining sofa and yelped like helpless puppies. ironically due to my dog on the loose. (: lemme see, amanda yeo, nicole, clare, jasmine, gerry, judy, pat, sarah ee, sarah g, stacy, gladys, emilia and me! absolute fun! not forgetting xiao qi, who was with us through technology. clare was the last to leave at almost 11.

i havent even opened my texts yet....but according to my darling steph, its ok, cos studying too early will cause me to 'lose steam'. hahahaha. if only i had steam to begin with.

campfire at SJI tonight! (: LAST ONE OF THE YEAR. omg thts so sad...
everything is the LAST this year.
LAST camp corri. LAST night tour. LAST TDR. LAST training camp. LAST investiture visit. LAST meiko visit (except when we WILL go over there. you hear? we WILL). LAST EVERYTHING. goodness...this sucks.

was looking through CGYC pics again. i swear, if i hadnt gone last year, my SAC life wouldnt be complete. you wanna be able to look back and go, yeah, it was worth it, i did something. and without CGYC i dont know if i could have said tht. "MOLARITY" (:

better get changed soon.. SJI beware.

gross huh? tht red blotch which looks almost the same size as my tonsils is a giant ulcer at the back of my throat. mum thought i had a throat infection so took me to the docs, only to find this. i could have diagnosed myself! hate the docs. hurts like hell. couldnt swallow the whole day! still cant eat, yawn, cough, sneeze, or move my tongue without serious pain. for the first time EVER, i watched a movie without popcorn. thts how bad it is.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
has been my mood the past few weeks.

people can be so self righteous, so attention seeking, so needy.
I'm sure i am at times, im not saying im not. it's been driving me nuts. like grrr.

i think i deserve the right to defend dear innocent exco don't i?
especially when so degradingly insulted. (yeah i do notice i make up alot of words)

anyhoo, HALLOWEEN BBQ AT MR POH'S was AWESOME! (: had a BLAST in my geisha outfit. did all preparation at nicole's..then we all trooped down to mr poh's place in FULL COSTUME, make-up and all. freaked out primary sch kids who were coming out in buses after sch! the poor things. this kid went 'eew' at me. HAHA. shows the make-up was convincingly creepy ok! sarah and i hid behind my fan. (which i later found out is really from japan!) will post pics on a host site instead. i was soooooo impressed and pleasantly surprised when ALMOST everyone turned up in costume! all except one or two, not sure if coffee shop beer girl clare counts! sardines was funny! the game..we didnt actually bbq sardines..collapsed at nicole's after then cabbed home with stace.

tree planting day was more flyer-distributing day than anything else. most of exco turned up with heavy eyelids and giant eyebags. we had to wear itchy blue shirts, but we did good work. on the way stace and i met the G.O. lady taking out her trash! COINCIDENCE? like at 9am...it just so happened we were on her floor. had to explain ourselves to this chinese aunty..and while stacy uttered 'uhhh...erm...uh...' and muttered 'uh..gan jing gan jing'....in attempt to promote the fengshan cleanliness campaign. haha.
EXCO planted a tree! haha..

2007-10-26T22:41:00.000+08:00

status: still on hiatus, but got a bit of free time for once.

breast cancer. my grandma has it, my grand aunt has it, one of my mum's best friends has it, and that friend's sister has it..it's everywhere. i realise mum and i are at serious risk huh. from my relatives that is..not from her friends. so i wore pink today. yes, because ive been making announcements this weeks, but also because its a personal issue and its for a good cause. so 80% of the student population failed to support breast cancer awareness, but i did, and i reminded exco, cac and the guides, thts abt all i could do. pink nails, pink clips, pink rubberband, pink CGYC shirt, pink shorts, pink shoes, pink polka-dotted socks, attempted pink hair, pink balloon i carried all day.

big day out was fun. the performance wasnt too bad. kinda pathetic in the drama room, but the sec 2s werent bad. helped out in dnt with amanda,stace,randi,sam,yeyeng,cristabelle and other prefects. relived childhood with stainglass thingies, which got smudged and damaged as i brought it home by the way. for the first time i wasnt hungry during chinese tution, thanks to mr roland's pizza! i did a compo in peace.

montfort student leader's bonding session was fun too! yo momma was uh....heh..amusing..and my group rocks! PASSION overall champions thankyouverymuch! whoo! doralyn (IJ toa payoh), grace(geylang methodist) and i presented our service learning powerpoint..haha. met the ACL of AISS, jasmine! she was the first person i talked to when i sat down. coincidence?

'luxurious chocolate' as tommy puts it. BEST TEAM OVERALL it says. to PASSION! whoo! (:

sch's suppose to be out..but we've got extended week. my cousin got 2 weeks last yr so im not gonna complain. went out with nooze today, she couldnt resist even though i refused to change out of my pinkness! (: 14ed straight to suntec to check out the dell kiosk! she popped my balloon while i was discussing specs with the guy...LOL. ive decided agaisnt an acer and macbook and vaio i THINK. going to funan with dad tmrw to explore my choices. FOR ONCE we actually made it to marina in less than an hour and without getting lost time and time again.

hardly got a reaction from the 'rents when i showed them my report book. they were really more concerned abt chris' results. i decided it was unfair to think that they couldnt be.

anyhoo, more pics as promised!
yeah..i know my blog's dead..but it shall live again!
p.s. SUPPORT PROJECT W.A.L.K! ALL DONATIONS WILL GO DIRECTLY TO ASSISI HOSPICE! HELP, BECAUSE YOU CAN!

OMG..i can breathe, sleep, speak..and more importantly EAT normally again..
end-years are over!! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
seriously, no kidding, you havent experienced exam meltdown till you've met me. thanks to all the ppl who have tolerated my hair-tearing, nerve-wrecking, mind-exploding hours..and i must say..SAC has some pretty cool teachers (:

not to mention sch continues for an extra week.. great. not saying i dont need it though..
good news is cgyc presentation isnt till jan..so tht gives me extra time for other stuff too

as always..stuff happened..
always does..but my oh-so-consistent blogging will never account for it all.
so anyhoo..
i think im going on a semi-permanent HIATUS..
with just photos.
cos we all know im not coming back here for another how long?
and photos are long over due..and will take forever to load.
so here's the deal..slowly..as many as i can at a time..photos.

no, your eyes are not playing tricks on you, GEN IS BLOGGING. (like ohmygd right?)
ive come out of 'post-CGYC (Canossian Global Youth Conference) depression' mode. i think. yeah..which i still dont intend on blogging about because i had the MOST AWSOME time there and met the MOST INCREDIBLE people ever that words cannot justify. and knowing me and my vocab, ill ruin it (i know it sounds stupid, but whatever). Thus, ill post pictures when i find the time.

again a LOT has happened lately, but ill just fast forward..(Masi beatbox fast forward effect)

TEACHERS' DAY, dare i say, was pretty darn awesome. i mean, even a teacher (to protect the rights of the anonymous) said it was way better than last year's and P and VP said the standard was high and they enjoyed it. So I was so psyched after it! Spent the time managing backstage and performers with the oh-so-cool but oh-so-redundant walkietalkie cos no one (JANNA! YOU HEAR ME? lol) responds half the time! This PM girl went, 'you're sweating and tired'. and im like 'yeah, thanks for noticing'. no duh. lol so yeah, we've screwed up alot lately. like ALOT. but i think we redeemed ourselves today. Everyone had this extra boost to work and im so proud of us! whoo! GO EXCO! (:

after we cleared up, (oh! i went to return the baskets to Ms Daisy Tan right, and somehow i attracted a tour group consisting of janna, sal and nic. so we were in her office and i had to climb on the chair to stuff the 4 baskets with the other 10 which were already up on top of the cupboard. as i shoved 2 in, another 2 popped out on the other side, sending confetti and balls of white paper all over sarah anne's head!! omg i broke out in hysterical laughter so i couldnt stop my hands from shaking more and more of the confetti on her head! so it was like snowing in there with all of us cracking up..and ms tan didnt even lift her head from her work. cleared up and left and she didnt notice a thing. haha.) nooze, sonia and I headed to watch HAIRSPRAY!! ive gotta admit zac efron was like WAY HOT in this movie okay... maybe its the whole 60s thing..but like whoah, ive joined stacy's club! if we werent freezing our asses off in our sch u, we totally would have melted in there.

then then then, straight after, i headed to vivo (on my own cos nooze and sonia rather shop than..) to catch a glimpse of the HEROES WORLD TOUR!! Met nic, sal, gerri, stace, judy, faith, (apparently sarah ee and yeung wing were somewhere in the mass of ppl), lizzie, emilia, amanda and co. i bit my nails the whole way there cos i thought i was late! but Masi Oka, Ali Larter, Greg Grunberg and Sendhil Ramamurthy were SUPER LATE!! it was so cute, we were waiting, and these guys wrote 'pick me up' on a sheet of paper and left it on the red carpet. HAHA. they're all so much better looking in person! got swept around by the crowd. hardly had to walk, literally swept off my feet and carried through the waves of the masses.

great day, photos soon! (:

special thanks to all performers today. GO EXCO! whooo!
VS campfire tmrw!!

2007-07-28T00:15:00.000+08:00

saved as a draft on 28july..but i never finished it. haha. yeah im useless:

words cannot begin to justify how incredible CGYC was!!
my WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organisation) is made up of the most awesome people ive ever met. Amazingly bright and sweet at the same time. I love them all so SO much!! we stayed up till 4.30am struggling to free the world of generic drugs. INCREDIBLE PEOPLE.
if i go on..i may start crying AGAIN. like for the 4 consecutive days immediately after the closing ceremony. currently still an emotional wreck. maybe ill elaborate more when i discover a vocabulary extensive enough to describe this experience. SEVERE POST-CGYC DEPRESSION

2007-06-15T21:08:00.000+08:00

ORDER HAS BEEN RESTORED!

2007-06-14T21:36:00.000+08:00

my grandma is such a strong woman, its inspiring.

had an interesting conversation with her revolving around kevin federline today

met ms tan at 7.30..finished by 8!
spent half an hour at the spiral staircase reading the infopack..which i STILL DONT GET btw..
and i have to complete my position paper by nxt sunday without any understanding whatsoever. whee.

prefects training session, well half of it at least, was a blast!
blind man's buff..haha.
ethel is such a dear. NOT. but i love her so. LOL
basically i played barterer?..trading (with the occasional ransom) back the rightful kids..
eh shin ling? (who got kidnapped at least 4 times) (:
'you can have the can if you gimme back my shin ling'
'we'll give you a vanessa if you give us back the ethel'
got a nice facial. its amazing what your nose can do. apparently i can sense ketchup from a mile away. not too gross. i mean they fed us, no complaint there (: and ive tasted worse. i learnt that egg dries fast!..and wasabi burns! and ketchup disappears in time..which is rather strange..
so so sorry if i abused anyone..lol..in the most innocent way possible thankyouverymuch..i tend to get violent when im blind..i know i hit and dragged janaine here and there quite a bit. sry! (:
was standing by the classrooms i think..when i heard 'gen!'..'gen!'...
so i spun around and around going 'who said that?'
and it took what..5 mins..till i screamed 'MARIE!!'
and a bunch of ppl from inside burst out laughing.
i know i turned red under the blindfold horrified that i called out the wrong name.haha
got to hang out with shin ling since we never got a chance to since..ahem ahem..lol
got to 'bond' with my own neighbour whom ive hardly ever spoken to..
successful bonding session at least since i missed the actual training bit.
and i got in the car and my mum immediately took out her perfume and covered me in it since i stenched of egg! which only makes it worse..

but i wore that shirt again when i figured i had to spend some quality time with orrie.
rolled around on the ground, crawled under the table..ran around the house chasing him..then let him chase me..stole his toys..cleaned his ears...and sang to him while lying under the table next to him..yes, sang to him. haha. not too flattering when your dog covers his eyes with his paws as you sing 'there was a farmer had a dog..(aka.BINGO)'.
as they say..'when you lie down with dogs..'..no wait, thats a bad idiom to use..

OH MY..its 10..and ive got HOW MUCH HW LEFT? and HOW MUCH TIME?
about a ton...and about a day.

we get him colourful toys only so it contrasts with his fur

my family name on a wall in the room of a restaurant. i wrote the 'The' if you can't tell, and chris wrote the 'TEO'S'..why its in caps?i dont know. but its pretty cool huh. the owner took a photo to put up. i love my dad's job.

my breakfast for a whole week. WHOO!

tip: even krispy kremes can cause nausea on a boat ride.

dad gave me a sneak peak at knocked down hotel room that they're gonna join together to make one big suite. look! im standing between 2 rooms..2 places at once? (a walk to remember!)

(not bothered to rotate) SENHORAS

(yet again.) HOMENS

GEMS thingy. haha

stephanie, pei yi, joy and 'cute guy' chachaing!

that would be (if someone but me bothers to sharpen and brighten the pic) stacy with a very bored expression i think. GEMS dialogue session

2007-06-10T02:36:00.000+08:00

whoo! that took a while..but i got it down.
NOTE TO CAC07: PLS PLS PLS CHECK YOUR EMAIL! AND IF YOU DIDNT GET THE CONTACT LIST AND ST ANTHONY'S FEAST DAY PLAN, IT MEANS YOU GAVE ME A TOTALLY UNREACHABLE EMAIL ADD AND I DEMAND THE RIGHT ONE ASAP! SO PLS PLS PLS TELL ME SOON!
ok, well, currently 2 weeks into june break, alot has happened and its currentyl 2.39AM so i have to do quick summaries. which is me doing by my blogging diet, so yay me!
lets see,
week one, spent in hong kong and macau.
AWESOME TIME!
i mean..here's the typical day in dad's hotel. (ok..technically not dad's hotel cos im no paris hilton, duh. we dont get the millions, but it sure makes me feel like royalty)
12.30pm: wake up
1pm: fancy lunch in one of the many IR restaurants
2.30pm: back to room where housekeeping probably is, so we take a walk or hang in the lobby till they're done. then we head back and hang out in the room. = mum hallmark channel, chirs laptop, me book, dad back to office.
5.30pm: dad comes back, hang out some more..
7pm: fancy dinner in one of the many IR restaurants (sometimes includes guests where its mostly small talk)
9pm: back to room, where we hang out some more. and i take a nice long bubble bath. then we hang out some more.
12pm: chris and i head back to our own room, and we hang out some more.
3am: bed.
then we do it all over again.
haha. that's a holiday. for one whole week, pure nothing.
well not exactly.
spent one of the days at the spa. dad took us to the fanciest cinema ive ever seen. where guys in tuxes usher you to your seat, and the bar/concession stand has no popcorn but pepper salmon baguettes. watched PIRATES 3!! AHHHH! its the bomb. like really. days of shopping in hk...H&M..landmark..central lanes. breakfast at the jockey club. krispy kremes! which i didnt get to go to this trip, but aunt cat picked some up for us jsut before we left!
had the best time ever! undeniable. this was a vacation.

exco camp!
day 1:
met for bonding breakfast.
except the 3-seveners didnt turn up! and those were the ones i personally sent memos to.
haha. anyhoo..
went back to sch, hung out till it was time for me to go meet the guiders.
had a short discussion, then joined the others. on the way reported to rebecca, rachel and amirah. did i mention i miss them all? argh!
ice breakers then theory.
(oh my, its 3.01AM, ok..full speed aheah!)
stacy and i came up with the best forfeit for nic!! haha
it was dumb..but hilarious!
spin around five times of your stomach while singing rihanna's umbrella..HAHA.
now imagine nicole spinning face down going 'ella, ella, ella, eh eh' HAHAHA!
was a blast. theory was dry but bearable.
then night walk!
with randi and rachelle, which was good bonding time since we werent too familiar.
had fun..but was kinda jetlagged due to the 3am sleeps and 12pm wakeups..so bad attempt of adjustment before camp resulted in easy wearing of the mind. if you caught that.
watched a teeny bit of pirates 2 before knocking out.
day 2:
DISC course!
stacy was right..i am a Cd..i hate it when she's right. haha.
i thought she'd be an Ic as well, but turned out to be an Is, which is rather peculiar.
nic is so an Si, and mathea so a Cd. jasmine very unexpected. lol.
then amazing race!
haha.
i had on-off energy spurges.
stace and i took turns to double-bike with sarah fun (now aka. HAH!), lol.
stopped to fix the double bike twice. finger got punctured by gears, got bike grease all over my legs and hands. but success! the uncle only had so rescue us once. haha.
amazing race was awesome. different from the others ive been in. way different from the ERNIE one with just 4 of us! this time was 5..with bikes.
had dinner at laguna with memories of iorganise! haha. then walked around that wakeboarding place with nic, stace and SA. there was a little english girl, no older than 5, wakeboarding! i mean whoah.
strange dark catching game thingy in the hall was cool. haha. i GI crawled across the bottom of the stage, bad idea. haha
day3:
council training was..ok..haha.
(OMG. i just realised the one thing i came online for has not been done. ok..mum's gonna kill me if her cheques bounce)
cabbed home with huang chi and tiffany. thanks tiffany!

yesterday!
i woke up at 9..to go to stephanie, pei yi and joy's young GEMS camp performance thingy with stace, nic and emz, and of course sarah (stacy's sister).
the performances were HILARIOUS!!
i swear i heard the MC go..'wasnt that good, ive got something up my butt'. honest!
pei yi cha-cha-ed with stephanie! and joy's cute guy wasnt even cute..come on..haha
but it was a blast to sit at the back and sing and laugh...at a FORMAL EVENT might i mention. haha with an MP and everything, we were singing accidentally in love. lol.
had lunch buffet thingy, saw mrs chong and ms daisy tan. hee. LOL
then went to play foozball..which FYI, is a CCA at republic poly! spent abt 1 and a half hrs there.
it was really really fun okay! that jackie dude was gooooood...who knew there were TECHNIQUES for foozball?
then headed home with stace and emz with our ice-creams.

so far. pretty good holiday. cant wait for OBS!
note to self: read up on CGYC bklet and research for meeting on wed.

2007-06-10T01:12:00.000+08:00

its been too long!
want to reply tags.
want to update.
but no.
i shall be the responsible person that i am and finally, after months of procrastination, do the CAC contact list i promised. i will. like now. ok cya.

2007-05-26T14:25:00.000+08:00

wed
im not giving up on cca..but its not looking up.
had an hour of gadgets..1 whole hour under the blazing sun..
went dizzy after 45mins..and then had to sit in canteen by the time the hour was up. nausea.
usually not that week..last time that happened was in sec1. but i guess i have my days.
puked twice (dont worry, i wont elaborate)..then drank 2 bottles of water.
felt a little better despite the lack of even a hint of a breeze.
then amirah, shafiqah and rachel joined me.
damn i miss them all.
spent the rest of the time hanging out, then 14ed home with yanning and sonia.

thurs
came to sch with a terribly uneven face sunburn.
of all days.. haha.
10.45am had rehearsals, then abt 12.15am had prayer service.
was in panic mode in my seat (though trying to sit 'demurely', as they say) cos lacked commentators. sadly, wasnt given even a slight but of involvement in prayer service..so i had to do something. calmed carrie down was all i could do really. i wasnt about to run around the sch in court shoes looking for ppl AGAIN this time.
then investiture.
usually im not fond of investitures..haha. but despite the spotlight that burned through my skin..and my terribly runny nose..i really enjoyed myself. i hope my constant sniffing wasnt that obvious. just as i turned to walk down the carpet i think my shoe slipped for a second there. oops. mumbled to nic all the way through..then suddenly she went 'im sweating like shit', and i laughed. haha. just as natalie was coming up..i laughed. oh the embarrassment in a formal event. haha so i composed myself..sat up straight..then tried not mumble anymore after that just in case.except for wishing nic luck once or twice, just for a sec. pat was down there making stupid faces to try and get me to smile..and asking questions i couldnt answer. i almost nodded then realised how ridiculous that would look. haha. sry pat!
reception..didnt eat due to lack of appetite. except a piece of chocolate nic force-fed me, which didnt do much for my throat. but thanks nic. lol. HUGS ALL AROUND. (:
now my tie looks terribly goodygoody..what with my red badge, then legion badge, and mini trefoil and new cac badge..its creepy. 2 crosses! but i love it (:

exco07's first task: shifting the clavinova up from the hall to AVT. thanks ALOT MM!
note to self: must brief new MM. no wait, i keep forgetting. must get sarah anne to brief new MM.
big success. we stripped of our blazers..so it was approx. 8 ppl in ties, court shoes and flowers in their hair lifting a piano smothered in blue blazers across the school. someone claimed that its lighter when you shift it across the bridge..and stacy's all ' gravity doesnt change when you cross the bridge!' and i burst out laughing and my arms gave way..while we were going down the hall steps. WHOOPS. haha.
had a ton of fun.
changed, then hung around with shin ling and mich, waiting for yanning. then cabbed home.
went to the docs, got ton of medication. this ALWAYS happens at the end of term..

all in all, i think i had a good term. lots of laughs. for the first time, lots of tears. but we all move on from here (:

ive learnt first hand that blogs are unethical. so i herebly declare my blogging DIET.
minimum is the key. and ill see how that goes. im off to a good start cos im leaving in about 3 hours! whoooo!

[edit]
i almost forgot to mention..
i got a 69.9 for english overall. OH MY GOODNESS. just 0.1 marks and id have a 13 under my l1r5 section and a 10 for my l1r4...
oh the frustration.

to end on a positive note..
HAPPY CAMPING EVERYONE! (:

2007-05-18T22:41:00.003+08:00

give me my seniors back!!
(shut up. before you start with the i-told-you-sos)
its sad to admit..but i dont think we can function without them.
and when we try..we end up doing 50 consecutive push-ups. wonderful.
sigh. im praying for a medical clearing. nothing's gonna stop me from OBS!
yes i know its my last camp christine..but hey, i rather end on a positive note.
ERNIE ROCKED. thts all i want to remember.

cca was a downer...as you can tell..i miss sparrow!
so talked to jerm alot..ernie memories. sigh.

i remember in sec1..i wanted the years to pass fast so we could finally take charge.
i take it ALL back now..all of it.
during the farewell..i shook while reading the speechy thing.
yeah..shook. like..weak knees and quivering arms kinda shake.
and im actually quite alright with public speaking...considering i only have to recite the pledge to myself thrice each morning before going up. haha.
and then during the different speeches..my jaw couldnt stop quivering.
i tried to hold it in till way later..but i guess i broke when hannah came.
hugs-a-lot. haha
wish it were all the same again. the right way.

results back.
boo that.
l1R5..13 if im not wrong. boo that too. and its only sec 3..

its 11pm and im currently organising Bible Day stuff..

tuesday: marking day!
legion in the morning was fun as always.
heard stuff, but of course, within the 4 walls (:
planned to head to the SPCA after so we did.
sarah anne, nic, emz and me.
called stace to come along, then lunched at KFC..cheeeeeese fries.....
SPCA, run-down, neglected. tiny little building in the middle of nowhere.
doesnt anyone else care about those animals?
witness 3 adoptions!! AHH!! it was soooo awesome!
gwen is so sweet! great kong-fan, hyper but sweet! even though she punctured my hand while thinking it was her toy, and scratching nic up.
hillary sogged up my shoelaces..
kiko did something not so pleasant to my leg till i finally unlocked myself and got out of the cage.lol. then stacy oh-so-wisely went to test him, and ended up bitten scratched and traumatised. thought she was off dogs..till she met tammy..aww sweet tammy.

lint remover anyone?

hillary attacks!

gwen!!

hillary's 'approach me, i like sneakers' look

tammy! you have to look into her eyes.
check out the cage..support the spca

GO TO THE SPCA AND JUST SPREAD SOME LOVE IF NOT TO ADOPT,
THE ANIMALS NEED SOME ATTENTION.
its really worth the trip. and the furred up shirt. and stacy's pulled hair.

oh and i carried my first cat! yay me! im not a cat person..but the cattery was so fun! well..if i were a cat tht is..it would be fun. rabbits are boring once you look pass the fluffy tail. and there were hamster cages, with no hamsters.

bubble tead at singpost.
then split ways at the mrt.
people can be so entertaining huh?
BOP BOP..haha. buttcrack!

results tmrw..whoopdeedoo..
all at once. lets see how much i can take till i crack.

2007-05-14T23:12:00.000+08:00

i noticed mid-years are over..but i didnt really get that HALF THE YEAR HAS PASSED!
great..and what have i achieved?
recently found out everything clashes this june..so i cant make it for camp christine or for catholic camp..which is JUST GREAT. ugh!! i so wanted to go for both!
got catholic camp to plan, prayer service and one more thing i just cant seem to remember. thanks god for legion tmrw..need the planning time.

post-exam syndrome:

2007-05-09T17:51:00.000+08:00

smell that? smell that?
that's the fine scent of F-R-E-E-D-O-M baby!! whoo!
exams are FINALLY over! and i already taste the good life!

this was more slogging and mugging than ever, i believe..ooph! and still probably the most crappy results. we'll see how it goes. i hear ms raju's finished our bio papers..im screwed.

steph had late papers so went to pat's with gladys and rachelle for FRIENDS MARATHON!! nothing says destress like FRIENDS!! ice cream and chips feast! yay! spending the morning with nooze, sonia and lynette tmrw after their bio..last-minute farewell stuff..then shopping with steph! havent been downtown in forever!

oh before i forget, ms kwan did the SWEETEST thing! she made 2/8'06 exam stress reliefs kits AGAIN with a note that made me tear in class. awwww.. left her a note on 2/5's board but got long lectured by some (unnamed) teacher cos she said it was so impersonal..right.

OH!! PHANTOM OF THE OPERA WAS LIKE THE ALL-TIME BEST MUSICAL IVE EVER SEEN! and ive seen quite a few. SIGH..musicals make me woozy...hence..im the broadway freak. (:
i sat UNDER THE CHANDELIER!! like DIRECTLY UNDER!! 5th row from the front..center..AHHH!! it was A-W-E-S-O-M-E! it moved up and down with sparks! i had to strain to look up as the phantom came down on the thingy! AND i jerked everytime there was a gun shot or fire blazed out. YES FIRE!! whooooo! awesome.

not forgetting im FIFTEEN!! yay me! heeee! had pre-celebration since i had AMATH and HISTORY on the day itself. boo that. had dinner on saturday at this brazillian restaurant called erm...SAMBA wassit? think so..haha. pretty cool, i mean these chef ppl come around with skewers of all kinds of meat..from pork ribs to cheem beef names..haha whts not to like? my birthday always lasts through 2 wks cos of exams..its like everything gets pushed forward and i get to go shopping with extra cash! whoo! no party this year. family thing.

i think my favourite birthday gift were the really sweet cards from my little cousins..one with zack effron kissing vannessa hudgens..and another one with a huge ginormous smiling zack. haha. very sweet.

freedom has its conditions..for one..you cant get your hopes up that it'll last long..i have 4 overdue current affairs already.. sigh. painful stuff. but its awesome while it lasts!

courtesy of MISS KWAN (aka. mrs tan, but she'll always be ms kwan to us!)

I never really talked to her much, but i already miss Mrs Loh.
She'd always give me a warm smile when id run on by yelling 'hi mrs loh' in sec 1, not knowing any better tht in S'pore..its all about the 'good mornings'..
She welcomed me into school and self-assured me when i went for my music admission test with ms nunis.
She showed great care and understanding always and is who i have to thank for getting me where i am today. For without her, I wouldnt even be in SAC (without a PSLE record).
THANK YOU MRS LOH.

prayer service went EXCELLENT. i almost broke into tears when PB played and mrs loh walked in looking all surprised and touched. But had to control myself cos everyone else was happily appluading. I never noticed how much i appreciate her presence.
Watched her car take off, loaded with gifts. all the sec 3s had to give were hugs.

AND i miss ms kwan more and more. we queued up for our dearest teacher's incline pull-up line..but NO...we got stolen away. and we hardly ever get to see her, let alone say 'hi'. we couldnt even have that short moment to catch up. i really really miss her. ARGH.

As the days get rougher, im beginning to appreciate the little things that make me smile.

2007-04-18T20:43:00.000+08:00

its been an extrememly rough week.
i hope you're reading this emz...but i REALLY REALLY appreciate the time and effort you're putting into this..REALLY. means a lot.

chinese tuition today rocked. i basically did one cloze passage thingy..then as she told me to move on to the comprehension..we got into this convo abt JCs and her kids..and past students...and we spent the rest of the lesson talking. haha. she even took cookies out. HAHA. maybe it was just a ploy to improve my oral skills..hmm.. (oh i and i found out, her son went to RI with a PSLE score of 281, then RJC with 2 friggin points, then after his As...he received 1 local scholarship and 2 international scholarships cos he like took 2 or 3 S papers...like WHOAH)

during history, mdm chan did this job predictor thingy...
jasmine quek's going to be god..and stace is gonna play for the rangers, yeung wing's gonna be am insurance fraudster and tricia neo's going to be a gigolo..and I'M going to be doing..and i quote 'something from 12pm to 1pm on days that begin with W'...and we all stared blankly at the screen..like..WHA??..
HAHA. then i realised..it was 12.40pm on a Wednesday right then...this is wht ill be doing for the rest of my life...having history in the Av theatrette. how much does that pay?

yesterday was a really tense day...any more to do and i may not have survived it..legion got my muscles to spazz....and i emo-walked to 14 home on my own..where the TWINS janice and jasmine...decided to taunt me about me doing the pledge and stuff.. everyone appeared at the bus stop when all i wanted was some peace to think...but NO..EVERYONE was there... i thank god i live so many stops away..

i love what i do, and where i am, why take it all away now?

2007-04-17T23:17:00.000+08:00

i ache all over. thanks to napfa stations..i cant laugh without pains shooting across my stomach.
and above that...there's just too much going on. so much so that i got sent out of the class twice in a whole week (7days total)..and just because of MINOR things..and this would be the FIRST TIME ive ever even had to stand in class before..like ouch right? yeah.

help me. just shoot me.

2007-04-08T00:53:00.001+08:00

HAPPY EASTER!!

REJOICE!!

2007-04-07T23:19:00.000+08:00

just got back from sentosa.
dad's friend got us tickets to see tht new 'songs of the sea' fountain show thingy.
the mass of people was awesome! i took pics (of the crowd) but flash only concentrated on some ppl.. had dinner at tht indian restaurant down at palawan beach...im still stuffed.

suppose to do ss powerpoint but SOME PPL havent gotten to doing research yet. AHEM i havent all week you know... (: request for SPEED increase in research process pls.

TONS of crap left to do..and its EASTER! i mean have a heart ppl..
i LOVE easter..not just because of the really huge cadbury easter eggs my MOMMY bought me (HAHA!), but its like christmas..the joyful mood, the incredible significance, and the rejoice in everyone..its awesome.

im stalling again..in hope tht the work load will just disappear. tough luck gen.

2007-04-05T15:57:00.000+08:00

i left sch at 2.30pm today. no kidding.
i havent gone home so early in FOREVER!
and somehow it felt strange..like jetlag but not...
after sch, went to pass abu her blouse and look for anne at the same time.
she was with a teacher so i left a message and went looking for others with mathea.
so THEN she went to my class after, but i wasnt there, so she left a message for me to go back to her class..so when i got back, i did. THEN clarissa sent me down to the sunken foyer cos anne went to see choir preview...so i did...THEN after the preview..she signalled from the art gallery to go up to her class, so i had to climb back up. then she asked 'why are you perspiring like that?'. like HAHA anne.
but i still got everything done before 2.30pm. and it was like everyone had tutorials or cca..so i actually went home alone. stopped to get a caramel chunky kitkat...COMFORT FOOD for my extremely EXHAUSTING day (you have no idea), then slowly 14ed home..i think i tried to hang around as long as possible cos it was way to weird to go back so early.

so anyhoo..im gonna fail AMATHS. duh. no surprise there.
oh! VJC humans quiz..haha..
there were 2 rounds..first..and final.
we didnt get past first. LOL.
RI, SJI, HCI kind of competition..so there.
but i learnt a heck of a lot from it all..
sarah saw this 'hot' guy..which seriously looked like a scarecrow...
sharp pencil nose, sharp pencil chin..
but she insisted...like EEEW sarah. i expected better from you. LOL.

a restriction from my own emotions, for the sake of who

2007-03-25T16:02:00.000+08:00

note: stacy, no wisecracks, you've been warned about this mystical happening already. (:

LENTEN VIGIL ROCKED.
it was WAY BETTER than last year in the spiritual area,
and so much more organised. i wasnt even sleepy!
except i wasnt walking in very straight lines on the way home with marie..but i was so awake.
praise and worship was soul enriching and stations were touching. yes, i teared through the few segments of passion of Christ. but i loved it all in all. i even kept a couple of the roses.
at one point, we had to get into groups and perform something related to our faith..or something like tht.. sam peck, emz, nic, sarah anne and i did this ultra retarded skit set in cat class. felicia says i make a great bimbo. HAHA. it was stupid, yet uber funny!..quote 'if you had brain cells, they'd die of lonliness'..LOL.
started at 10pm friday, ended at 6am saturday with mass. and i didnt even have starbucks this year!!

14ed home with marie. stopped to buy bubble tea (yeah, it was open at 6am) on the way. 2 kids in black carrying roses and bubble tea, spent the bus ride snapping photos and chatting with energy. all the old ppl stared at us in amusement. uber fun!!

reached home, lay in bed singing the songs tht were ringing in my head...fell asleep within 15mins. woke up : 2.15pm!! ready for cat class. haha. and guess wht, we did all fourteen stations WITH more segments of passion of Christ. yes, waterworks.

if you're not, im proud of myself for attending 2 masses and doing 28 stations in total within 24 hours! go gen!

after P&W during the vigil, we had to make a lenten sacrifice till easter. being all in-to-the-moment and connected, I HAVE GIVEN UP TV FOR THE NEXT 2 WEEKS. yup. TV. anyone who knows me knows how painful tht is. but there it goes. mom said she'll do it with me as support.

whee!
testify to love.

(part of my extremely messy room which ill never ever clean up or people will be even more glad to barge into more often than they already do) (with my canossian saints day balloon deco! AND my new lenten vigil ROSES! (: )

2007-03-18T01:37:00.000+08:00

ok..so its 1.37am on a sunday morning of my oh-so-wonderful holiday.
i actually completed my chem concept map. yay me! now for a break.
made myself a cup of coffee...but it was B-A-D, UGH!
sugar did not help and i didnt want some kind of organ failure, so i put milo powder instead.
its actually not bad. starbucks aint got nothing on me!
blog surfed a little...dread hitting more books..so ill just linger here a while.
good news is emz can get us discounted tickets to hk for CGYC, thanks emz' dad!
and i only flunked one sub this term! A maths, i mean..could they not see the difference between my F9 and A2? but i did flunk 2 other tests..hist n eng summary bit. ah well, all in all, i have to do something quick.

quick round-up

mon-tues : curriculum as per usual. plus tuition and cca and whtnot. oh! completed banner! well kind of. showed ms effeana and she seemed pretty pleased. which is good enough for me. caught 'THE MESSENGERS' at 7.30 after cca with lynette, nooze and sonia. omg i nearly died. haha i am so not one for horror movies at night. at least i got to sit center and snuggle under my pe tee with ben n jerrys!. sweet comfort zone. nooze n i laughed and crapped through most of it, flicking pop corn at lynette as she'd turn around in suspicion at the guys behind,hilarious, so tht KIND OF lowered my pulse rate. lol. cabbed home alone from kembangan. sonia freaked me out so bad. she was all 'imagine if the cab guy was some zombie, and suddenly he turns around and goes: where did you say you were going?' and did her giant googly eyes! and already petrified me screamed in the MRT station. haha. so not funny sonia. made them stay with me till i got in to cab, and as i did, i eyed the cab driver very VERY cautiously. then when i got in, the uncle asked me if it was my first time cabbing, and why i looked so scared of him. he actually told me not to worry cos he'd get me home safe. and then he made me tell him my whole life story, which im guessing was his ploy to calm me down. HAHA. again, NOT FUNNY SONIA!

wed: prefect training! haha my grp lost so we stayed to clean...although the PITs left..so tht was just me, rachelle n pei rong. but still..had fun scrubbing green goo of the floor with the toilet mop! 7.30ish

thurs: the 'holiday' begins! yeah right...make-up tuition for all tht i missed due to some other sch function..so tht added up to 2 and a half hours of CHINESE!! whoopdeedoo. dental!! no more hulk teeth! its a pretty purple n light blue (: then towned with steph! omg i want so many things! but am way too tight on cash to splurge. home by 11!

fri: mom took the day off for FAMILY TIME (: haha. which of course..means shopping! i finally got tht superman shirt i so longed for! everything else has to wait.

sat: no cat class! woke up at 1pm. so there went my day. brought orrie to the park at abt 6, picnic with relatives. haha. short sprints with orrie till he tired out. i think he got an anxiety attack from all the cats staring at him. poor thing. and here i am.

2007-03-09T14:30:00.000+08:00

to add on to my pain and suffering..my entire post just got erased..so here i go AGAIN.

there has to be a limit as to how many lemons life can hit you in the face with at one go.
there's just too much going on and way too many decisions to be made.
im just a kid! leave me alone!
i think my gut exchanged places with my heart.
to top it off, im getting extremely tired of talking.
if it wasnt for orals today, id probably be on a silent protest.
[edit.ed]

at 9pm yesterday, i actually took a walk. just a breather. despite my essays and ton of homework, despite my extreme fear of creatures of the night and the giant toads around my lagoon of a condo, i took a walk. it didnt help. so i ran it off.. short-term cure really. if i didnt have cca tmrw id probably do an 8-rounder with marie.

oh! i finally found a less awkward time to mention to kwan yee tht we both went to SIS. haha just a teeny but late. she practically leaped and draped her arm around me screaming 'my sister' in cantonese! haha. refreshing. yes. i actually understand it, i just dont speak. lol. which is WAY more than i can say abt my french. i remember going 'hey, jolena right? can i ask you a really random question?' in the art room sometime last year. haha. the only section of my brain thts still wired would be my memory. the rest has fused. local SIS kids unite.

a LOT has happened since, so ill just do a photo spill. well not all, im keeping the best for farewell surprise! (:

(ok while the photos load..im scanning through a couple of videos frm the pga hike, n im already close to tears, wth.)

many more. but tht'll just ruin the fun.

im gonna go hyperventilate.

2007-03-01T18:42:00.000+08:00

canossian saint day was AWESOME!! so awesome tht i actually brought home a part of it with me...haha. PRETTY DRAMA ROOM DECO!! i took the green-heart shaped balloon and the funny curly wurly door ribbons! haha.

6.30am met in sch, frantically adjusting uniform. got sarah anne to help get the registration set up while i went straight for rehearsal. straight after, search party for guides who of course, were more than 20mins late. but it gave me time to compose myself.
7-8am ran around like an idiot coordinating guides/ushers. got lynette to replace me for awardee ushering, briefed her 3 times till i finally went 'you just do wht u gotta do' and left it as tht. ran around some more with news of changed venues n stuff.
abt 8.30 then i finally sat down with swollen toes and multiple blisters from those blasting court shoes.

mass was cool. fr. simon in really REALLY GOOD. i mean birds?? who would think of releasing 2 pretty blue birds in a hall full of screaming girls huh? he's great. we have to get him back.
investiture was heart-poundingly nerve wrecking. up until then it was just something i had to do tht day..but then it became OMG worthy. i had multiple minor giggle fits. but i didnt shake at all!! unlike TD2007!! so im kinda proud of myself for tht. (: anne was mocking and emz was making spastic faces and bodywaving...BUT i didnt crack up. i smiled, but didnt crack up. SO THANKS ANNE AND EMZ! hobbled downstairs where 'becca pinned my badge for me. which later all the guides were like 'eeehh...why your badge so crooked leh'. HAHA. and finally hydrated my painfully dry self. special thanks to jolena and chrystal!!

stayed back to discuss patrol gadgets. not as nice as clarisa's but it'll do. hung out with PGA seniors while they did their thing, then hugged them all good luck before they left and went to drama room to check out my dear usherers who actually stayed to do refreshments and stuff..yay! didnt eat, but helped to clear and stole deco. walked around the sch SINING with MARIE and clearing up the rest of the school. oooh! ms raju said to clear the balloons in the hall...so we did! marie through them in the air while i jumped up and down poking them with her name tag! so they burst in the air like fireworks! haha super fun! then brought balloons down to jerm and sharmaine, but ended up bursting them anyway. finished up gadgets!!

then marie and i RAN AROUND THE FIELD!! lol. i think we had like WAY TOO MUCH energy to spare...then we sang our way to get bubble tea and i tied a balloon to the railing (: and then all the way home! haha. reached back at 3.

fun stuff.

P.S.

extra special thanks to pearle and shafiqah who screamed from the balcony!, yanning, jerm & 2.8!, all the guides!, my dearest 3.8!, CAC!, poh hun!, and all the others who cheered! (: LOVE YOU GUYS!!

YESTERDAY:
school as ususal. after sch had usher meeting with guides and ms raju...and i just kept hearing my name ringing the entire time so i kinda zoned out..2.30 had chem tutorial. 3.30 had investiture rehearsal. 5pm had mass and award presentation rehearsal. 7pm arranged hall and carried tables. max n i in uncontrolable giggle fits for who knows wht reason..haha 7.30pm preped certs and set up chairs. special thanks to ying hua and tiffany for helping out or we never would have finished! then mum came to pick and sent max home. she did tht 'where do you live? OHHH i live down the road from you!!' thing AGAIN. this time i didnt play along....lol. reached back 9.30 plus plus.

DAY BEFORE THAT:
FIRST CANOSSIAN SAINTS' DAY REHEARSAL WAS UBER UBER STRESSFUL. omg. everyone was in such a huff n puffy mood it was scary.

ALL IN ALL, very productive week id say. i didnt fail A maths!!! whoo me!! mr poh actually said i did ok!! wheeeeeee!

[pictures when finally uploaded and received]

2007-02-17T23:48:00.000+08:00

ok well thursday was SO NOT MY DAY. friday was better..today was blah blah...

well thursday i found out im failing Amaths AND history. my only humans....apparently its the norm..
but i dont think so.
had SOP!!
haha. it was awesome. the bell rang right..and dear dear anne said emz and i had to meet at trophy area. she didnt say for wht.
so we did.
but then we kinda werent suppose to be there...so got tagged onto the press group.
halfway..met stephanie..ms dramamama...who SUPPOSEDLY lost her friend..haha drama Os ppl..
so anyway..ms wendy rescued emz and i and said we were suppose to be with her.
then for some reason..she still reported our names on the walkie talkie thingies..which was so cool but SO EMBARASSING cos our names were ringing throughout the school...like missing ppl...
(BTW!! HAPPY CHEENA NEW YEAR!! MIDNIGHT STRUCK) so we wandered around for a while..
till mr poh told us we were suppose to be part of some fire team..then we wandered some more for further instructions..i asked mr ng if we were unwanted..and he was all 'no lah..the fire team just doesnt want you anymore'. like thanks. lol..so we got sent to AA and kept being extra till reccess.
haha we were such sad sad ppl..but it was fun AND we werent stuck in the sun (:
oh and i didnt manage to wiggle my way out of commonwealth. lack of inspiration.

friday
was ok..after sch had prefect interview.
by 6.30am i was worried. by 11.30am i was in panic mode.
by 2.30 i was calmer. by 4 i was carefree. by 6.15 i was in panic mode again.
by 6.20 it was over.
met meera and natasha after sch.
we did a teeny little prep to calm the nerves..then just hung out till the interview.
HAHA. we did 'what ifs'..like whts the worse answer you could give to diff qns..and the most random things tht could happen. i think i laughed so hard i lost a couple of pounds. by 3.15 we went up to the library area..
and waited and waited. natasha and i sang songs from 'our time'...HAHA. like back in the day when 'oops i did it again' was DA BOMB. LOL. ms kang walked pass our exaggerated NUMB remix! havent laughed so hard in ages. A MEERA! lol...pj.
i hate interviews. especially with people you know.
it makes it all the more painful cos its just that much harder answer.
i mean...you cant give model answers and like..yeah..haha. its just a painful process.
i decided that honesty was the best policy..so i just gave them straight answers.
i did realise after tht i didnt elaborate on anything..so it could have been taken the wrong way..
well honesty's suppose to get you somewhere so we'll see...
i miss the days where we had interviews BEFORE we worked with the interviewer ppl..not AFTER.
like my first prefect interview..with mrs teo and athena. haha.
apparently everything i said was hilarious...so while they laughed..i just sat there blur and wondering..
haha.

today was just visit to dad's side and a while at mum's...tmrw will be way more chaotic..
happy CNY!!

2007-02-10T20:55:00.000+08:00

yes im still breathing.

ok i know its been really dead here. but ive just been SUPER BUSY you wouldnt believe.
so MERRY CHRISTMAS! HAPPY NEW YEAR! and HAPPY BIRTHDAY! too all that ive missed (:

omg when they said enjoy your last year of freedom i didnt think they were serious. but they were.
this wednesday was like..the first time ive reached home before 6 since sch started. i have no idea wht ive been doing okay..
so A LOT has happened since..just talk about recent...im getting braces on tuesday (OMG!)..i started cat class on sat which totally sucks! legion got moved to tues (online announcement for ppl who keep asking time after time) which also sucks..hosting jap kids on wed! new juniors!! inline is finally over! other stuff...AND if our forms go through, emz and i are off to hong kong in july for the CanossianGlobalYouthConference!! yay! but before that...i just found out i gotta re-do my forms on the comp...redo. and its not like a-sentence-long kinda questions they ask ok...its like...paragraphs full. i dont remember wht i wrote and i cant get the hard copy from ms daisy tan till monday!ahhhhh! oh and did i mention class is slaughtering me! im gonna flunk amaths and history, i almost flunked emaths, my only hope is bio now. and i have history ST on wed! pls say we get to skip cos of jap hosting! pls! i so cannot afford to flunk hist.

just got back from cca sec 1 orrientation camp!!
it was great..as ususal
i mean..camp is always super fun if you make it.
night walk was really REALLY AWESOME this time.
i mean..the sch stopped being scary a long time ago cos of all the many night walks alr,
but this time..i literally shivered up and down the staircase.
which could possibly be becuase there was really something there..or..no i cant think of anything else.. haha
i did the art gallery thing...so so sorry pearle if i like..bruised you anywhere with the trolley thingy!! i didnt mean to...LOL! i was just checking to see if i was in for a heart-attack. and i think i broke some of the CO instrument boxes! sorry ppl who play those things that go in the approx. half-arms-length boxes.
it was great..ive never seen straighter faces...haha.
campfire..dont wanna talk abt.. rachel said the MCs did good so thts a plus i suppose..but my dear programme had to be revised again and again cos of the lack of ppl and stuff so tht basically messed up...and like...like ugh. but nvm..moving on...
AMAZING RACE! sparrow was disappointed i could tell...but thts ok..runner up's fine too..(:
but i still think camp christine 2006's amazing race was the bestest of all...maybe cos we were ALL driven to finish it...or cos we had 4 ppl. either way. HAHA.
sparrow won best testwork! i mean..nerdy award or wht? haha. but candy is candy..

would you believe we already started planning for next year? haha.
its gonna be reeeeeeaaallll good if ms tan approves.
we were attempting to discuss farewell...but then got called back..
but i think ive got a rough idea on how its gonna plan out.
ok i really dont wanna think abt farewell..
so on a lighter note...
i think we BONDED pretty well..haha.
patrol of course.
but level as well..i mean...we're not ALWAYS clique-ish...lol
ooh! got ERNIE souvenirs!! haha keepsakes. yay! good times!

whoo!
go sparrow, go sparrow, go go go sparrow!

(:

THE RETURN OF THE CHOCOLATE CRAVING

2006-11-22T23:09:00.000+08:00

BACK FROM CAMP again!
prefect camp.
my arms ache, my legs ache, my knees are severely bruised, i skinned my right knee, i pulled something in my side.
i got up this morning unable to lift my sheets, literally.
couldnt tie my hair cos my arms cud hardly reach.
when i bend down my thighs scream and that little 'hole' in my knee stings.
when i sneeze, its like i get punched in the side.
but despite all that, CAMP WAS AWESOME (sounds familiar dont it).

prefect camp..but basically leadership-cum-life-lessons camp.
surprisingly..it was so so incredibly great!
i think ive done about 300 (possibly more) push-ups in just one day.
hence the haunting pain.
but it was all worth something.

i cant say much cos its all so beyond words i dont know how to.
more so..if i do ill probably cry (fine, ill admit it ok..i cried. cried. yes..cried.) again.

BUEI HIAO BAI
jingyin
valerie
janaine
shinling
ethel
mathea
peiyi
janna
veronica
siong wei
maria
ME

at first..i was all..aw man!-ish..
but then i mean..camp does something to you..
and we got tied together so close, its inspiring.

its funny, but only my group ended up in one big emo mess.
i mean..the last sharing session..everyone..and i mean everyone..broke down in tears.
INCLUDING OUR (guy) INSTRUCTOR..
ive never resisted leaving camp before.
its hard to explain really..but there was so much EMOTION put in..
its like..12 souls embodied in one heart.
ok..cliched crap of a phrase. but close enough.
everyone was so supporting..so committed..so honest with each other.
im so proud of us!
so we didnt win..
but its all about the JOURNEY. lol

spent the night with CLARISA, JANAINE, ETHEL, SHIN LING.
shin ling zonked out in less than an hour after lights out..
and ethel a little while later.
talked to clarisa abt cca stuff..and janaine drifted off.
think we finally got to sleep around 3.

CAMP WAS SOOOO EMO. BUT SOOOOO GREAT.
i love my BHB!!

2006-11-16T23:34:00.000+08:00

just picked chris from grad night.
omg all the kids were soooo adorable!
well the boys. the girls just looked too im-wearing-mummy's-makeup-ish.
note: P6 GRAD NIGHT IM TALKING ABOUT.
ok..chris and charles got in the car..and none wanted to talk.
little did i know, chris was tearing up.
OMG he cried!! dont say i blogged this..but OMG!!
its the first time ive seen him FEEL in a really long time.
besides the usual rage.
the strange thing is..i didnt laugh or anything.
ok maybe in the beginning a little. hah.
then i saw how sad he was..and i..ahem ahem..ill deny i ever said this..but i felt for him.
cos i guess i can relate right.
OMG. it was sooo sad. i kinda sat there not knowing what to do.
cos i mean..yeah.
then i gave him his grad night present.
the one i oh-so-kindly went to pick up this afternoon.
its the dogtags he's been wanting to get for so long but never got.
yeah im broke. but its the thought right?
THEN HE HUGGED ME!!
(anticlimax, just got an announcement from the living room that my dog did a little something)
ok anyway...so he hugged me!!
from the back of the car seat..but still.
im not sure which brother i like best. the scary ferocious one..or the awkward emotional one.

ok anyway..on a more cheerful note.
went out with steph today!
i decided to play dress-up this morning..
so i got into my most hippiest outfit.
as in HIPPIE HIPPIE. weed smoking, pro-peace, tie-died shirt hippies.
except without the tie-died shirt.
helped her run errands like her passport photo for IC and her phone to the centre.
then went to sg post for a while.
THEN TO ORCHARD.
yeah..in my hippie outfit.
that is...my flared tattered jeans, back-striped technicolor graffiti tommy hilfiger shirt, mudd jacket hardly around waist and voodoo book bag.
hard to imagine..but the look was kinda awesome.
so i proudly walked down the street.
no strange looks, nutt'in.
it was pretty cool..being indifferent with no one really caring.
it proves u dont have to wear what everyone's wearing to look good.
spent time in heeren.
steph got more OSTs. i just browsed.
half way through my jeans were like..staticky.
omg..imagine static with urslef. i mean..PATHETIC or wht?
is tht even possible? but i had it.
wayyy uncomfortable.

walked back down orchard at about..7.30.
it was getting dark..and the
CHRISTMAS LIGHTS ARE SOOOOOO PRETTY!!
i love xmas.
the warm fuzzy feeling.
sigh.
(:

"good sanitation keeps you healthy and happy *big cheesy grin*"
--says the goofy jap guy on tv

my skin is peeling!! perhaps ill get a nicer face this time. HAHA.
damn sun.

2006-11-13T22:12:00.000+08:00

BACK FROM CAMP!!

ok fine. ill admit i TEARED pretty bad on the way back when we were reaching school.
it wasnt that bad, then nurul had to go 'omg gen dont cry..please dont cry'..and then tadaa. haha
plus, i held it in so long, staring at the campfire the night before so i wouldnt have to watch them sing. you cant blame me.
i dont know what we'll do without the sec 3s next year. i get goosebumps just thinking about it. not to mention blurred vision as a result.
i never thought id get so attached.
gee, this is just camp, im gonna be a huge uncontrolable mess at the farewell. lol
ended with a heavy heart, but the rest was pretty awesome!

so, there was a whole lot of drama drama..haha. but the emoness made it way interesting.
my dear ERNIE stayed strong though.
BECKS,GERM,JERM,ME,and RENEE who eventually left due to unforseen uh..cramps.
i love you guys!! (: (:

where to begin?
well im so PROUD of us, if i could say so myself (: for coming in first for amazing race with big bird!
so we're not the most caring and unique...but we got LEGS man! LOL. ok scratch that.
AHAHAHA scratch that. legs. scratch. OMGosh can emotions enhance lameness?
i cant believe im saying this, but thank god for the WWII memorial tour we had for post-exams.
HAHA oh and thanks G.MOM and G.SIS! (:
i realised there's this whole other half of the country ive never been to. i so have to get out more.

kayaked with germaine this time. apparently there was something MAGICAL about our kayak.
yeah nurul..we hid a motor in out pockets.
haha.
was uber fun.
especially when we were turning back, and nelvinder yelled "first to reach, last to return arh" at us.
then she and ranie capsized.
omg soooo funny!!
we stayed in ATTEMPT to help.
then kayaked back alone with the ex-seniors and 'victims' trailing far behind. creepy at some point.
and WE SAW A DEAD FLOATING RAT!
shiver.

our pathetically stingy raft was AWESOME too!
ms tan said our aerodynamics was pretty good.
haha. that was fun.

spent most of the time within patrol that i spent at most 10 mins with nooze and sonia.
not forgetting hannah who brought me to see the stars after campfire. HAHA.
second night we formed a red carpet on the steps next to the lodge.
sakinah, kathlyn, natassia, michelle, lynette and i. with nurul, sonia, gemaine and rhoda at the side.
gossip gossip.
the whole camp was full of that.

learnt a heck load from my dear dear PL..though i dont think she knows that. (: thanks for everything becks. love love!!

new perspectives on everything. its amazing what 4 days with the same ppl can do to you.
last year's wasnt that great. but this year's was. despite the drama that unfolded day by day.
what can i say.

oo i almost forgot! VOTING FOR CL.
haha. ok i guess it isnt a good idea to say too much.
but from all ive heard, ive a pretty rough idea.
i used ELMO's crayon (i mean like HAHA) to do mine.
nice big letter with a giant smilie at the bottom (:
i just hope nothing changes after the results.
i remember ophelia got so stressed after that i never got to talk to her after. boo that.
LOL.

oo and our ITEM!!
haha. i loved the choreography for our ERBERNIE song.
ERNIE/BIGBIRD

was right in front was right in front with sakinah.
the skit was a tad bit messy, but we survived. (:

nights we spacious in the tent.
four ppl in whts suppose to fit eight.
not bad eh?

describe it all in one word?
AWESOME!

SCHOOL'S OUT!!!!
well not officially cos i have to go back on monday and every other day after that for another 2 wks. but still.

last day of sch was somewhat awesome..
lets see..
morning was just one big adrenaline rush.
i mean it was a nerve-wrecking few hours before we actually got on stage to do our 3 mins of joyful joyfulness.
but it was seriously cool. i mean the crowd and the music went like that.
SOO MUCH FUN.
i love my QOV. (:
then briefings..ladeedah..
shifting of chairs.
which was somewhat level-bonding..haha.
then results.
OMG miss kwan is like the sweetest of sweet teachers.
sheesh she almost made me cry twice.
once when i realised she said she was proud of me.
and the other..sometime after that.
i mean..she hand wrote little notes to each of us and developed 38 class photos.
ahhhhhhhh!
if she hadnt given me that hug i probably would have lost it.
i didnt think the last day would be so heartbreaking.
left class after several photos, realising i had 5 mins to change for cca.
inline skating for NYAA.
it was fun.
i mean i saved jermaine's life several times..and almost killed hannah quite a bit.
haha.
but renee and i did our thing.
after that headed to nurul's place (:
watched john tucker must die while stuffing her entire cupboard down my throat.
forgive me but i hadnt eaten since the night before. so there.
heh.
got home around6 plus.
played with orrie.
then rushed to MPH with steph.
haha i realised that the voucher MRS CHUA had given me last year expired..that day.
so haha.
sure its ten bucks...but if i earned it..and didnt use it..id be wasting her cash right?
so i went.
reminded ruoen and flabbs too. hope they went.
bought my book. hung out with steph.
headed back..reached home..say..10?
talked to xiao qi till abt 2am..
abt everything
fulfiling productive emotional day.

friday..decided to sleep in. havent been able to since orrie.
woke up..xiao qi called.
she wanted to take me out for fried marsbars.
HAHA
im all up for chocolate!
so i left the house despite the rainstorm.
crappy rain screwed my shoes up..
i wore a teeny bit of heels for the height..cos of the ginormous puddles i encountered on the way out of my junglish condo.
another great day gone by.

saturday.
legion in the morn.
haha hilarious morning.
tuition straight after.
she just wont gimme a break.
i mean i got a b..
i achieved a B for chinese!!
let me off the hook. at least for a little bit!
sure its my worst sub. but i have plenty of time to "catch up" later...
dropped orrie at the groomers!
a leeetle bit of shopping with folks to kill time before meeting agent..
mum bought me the pretty belt!
then went houseseeing with my folks.
some pretty awesome ones around..
picked orrie
he's soooooo adorable and smells wayyyyyyy better! haha

gonna do my end of year post soon.
perhaps when i unnumb myself.
streaming results on monday.
whoopdeedoo.

2006-10-17T23:03:00.001+08:00

the world isnt ready for him..
just one look will melt you down..

does he spell out ADORABLE or wht?
i know!!

did i mention he's MINE? (: (:
AHHHHHHHHHHHH
we're FIANLLY getting a puppy!!
picking him up on friday after training!

i have no idea how i managed to convince my parents
but my dad finally decided..and i quote to "give it to her". her being me.
yay me.
haha
so to show my utter commitment and grattitude..
i researched and researched and researched..HAHA
which brought me down to a couple of breeds..
then one fine day..we walked into this petshop (recommended by my mum's student's mum who use to own a pet shop) and i FELL IN LOVE with him.
even though i totally planned on getting one from a breeder and not a shop.
and at first didnt want another schnauzer in the family..
but hey...love is love right? even with a puppy (: HAHA

and tht was it. i mean they couldnt break my heart right.
he's rather expensive..apparently its cos he's black n silver while most are salt n pepper.
WHEEEEEEEEEE!!
i couldnt stop smiling the entire weekend..
ppl in church must have thought i was nuts or just really holy.

today was pretty fun..
woke up at 7 though i slept at 2...
went to school though its marking day..for prayer service rehearsals.
we're doing joyful joyful from the last bit of sister act 2.
HAHA its gonna be soo hilarious and soooo embarassing.
but wht the heck right?
then patt's house then gladys patt n i went to simei.
hung out at burger king..gossiped for a couple of hours.
then pet safari (thnks ms kwan) where i got the cutest collar for my puppy!!
hung around for quite a while..shopping..
then home.

YESTERDAY
oooo ok well sch great.
WAR MEMORIAL LEARNING JOURNEY was crap but ruoen n i were high the enitre time it didnt matter.. cause: physical exhaustion.
she almost rolled down fort canning!!
hilarious.
after sch..we managed to dive away from briefings..
and i rushed home for a nice COLD shower.
deeply appreciated in this country.

then headed to orchard to meet the old gang!!
we meet like ANNUALY cos not everyone's in spore most of the time.
awesome night.
met lynette a half hour early to plan and try avoiding all possible awkwardness with the others.
approached by several diff modeling agency ppl looking for "new faces" n crap. denied them while sitting on the steps laughing at them.
met gabriel, wanwen and siang at 6 plus.
TEENY BIT awkward at first since its been a whole 3 years since we've ALL been in the same place. nothing at the movies. headed for dinner and broke the silence.
dinner at wheelock.
it was great. lynette and i shared a mudpie..mmmmm...
silence officially broken..
after dinner borders for wanwen. siang n i headed to the bathroom AS USUAL and talked.
then we made our way to paragon STARBUCKS where we stayed for HOURS till like 11.
im so glad everyone's still the same. well basically.
i mean lynette and gabriel and wanwen are wht..17 going on 18?
then there's siang n i..
but somehow there isnt much of a gap.
talked about everything and everyone.
i missed tht.
back in the day the folks had wine parties till like 4am and we'd all go back with wasted parents.
us KIDS at the time just hung out..talking or at the clubhouse.
good times. those were the best.
we all stayed a block a way or a matter of floors.
we had fun..loser fun...but FUN.
re-enactment last night.
talking abt old pee stories..and the weirdest things we used to do.
from the spin-the-bottle nights to the boat trips and hikes on dragons back.
i really do miss tht.

so i guess it doesnt matter how far away you are or how long till you meet.
true friends right?

got home at abt 12. fell asleep at abt 2. i mean i only had a caramel frap but caffeine is caffeine. even if its just a coffee based shake.
when i finally zonked out..i dreamt we were still there at starbucks.
hah. so i practically spent HOURS there.

i also figured out the whole "was the year worth it?" thing.
and i think i had a pretty awesome year.
despite certain (ahem ahem) stuff.
see..you know after realising we were getting a puppy...
i was like excessively happy. like..you know the feeling of just pure JOY when nothing can affect you or burst ur bubble..yeah.
then i thought abt it..how many times have i felt like tht this year?
and then i realised..COUNTLESS!
and tht just makes it all worthwhile.

im gonna spend the next few weeks catching up with the ppl i really miss.
i figure there are LOADS.
well in between training my new puppy (as ive so solemnly sworn to do)

UNAMED PUPPY. any ideas accepted till friday.

okok..quit bugging me! here's my week...
and a very looong week it was.

FIRST DAY OF HOLS
wonderful morning. yes...i said MORNING.
gen woke up before 12 on a HOLIDAY.
uh-huh uh-huh.
9am to be precise.
internal alarm clock still ticking.
unlike my actual battery-powered one which i have yet to fix. (do remind)
had PANCAKES which i havnt had in wayyy too long a time.
delish.
mum took me to do hair (:
honestly..i felt like some sheep ok..
i mean the floor was totally covered in my locks after tht.
it was AWESOME yet FREAKING CREEPY.
seriously WAY TOO SHORT.
but they blew it straight so it looked ok.
then went cycling with the guys...my dear cousins to be precise..
and my hair got BLEW BACK by the wind cos well..i cant help but speed down hills now can i...
but i tamed it. haha.
had nice salad-steak dinner at home.
then rushed to airport to pick dad.
nice security lady threw me a cap.
then text-crashed sonia, nurul and michelle in total panic of wht to wear for night tour.
the jeans or berms dilemma.
verdict: JEANS (decent, according to ms tan..so no fav holy fox pair. boo)

P.S. totally forgot mum's school one-year anniversary.
and TOTALLY forgot mum's a teacher so i didnt get her teachers' day gift.
boome.

SECOND DAY OF HOLS
ok well..i got up at say 11..
internal alarm clock dying.
already planned EVERY LITTLE DETAIL the night before.
from my little Tiffany n co. star to the gloss (: (:
so got ready and waited for my limo (aka. xiao qi's dad) to come pick me up.
(huge misunderstanding in between which im not gonna spell out so nvm)
off to ms kwan's WEDDING (: (:
shi hui, xq and i were panicking our way there..upon hearing tht mr lian arrived in a polo tee..
so we were SO ABSOLUTELY OVER-DRESSED. haha. kiasunes.
but she said!
haha.
well yeah..the whole thing was sooo SWEET.
ms kwan was sooooo preety!
and it was all so laadeedaadeedaaa AWESOME.
it was so amusing seeing everyone so formally dressed.
strange yet nice. 36 out of 38 two-eighters turned up.
clare and pei rong had camp. so boo SJAB.
yet there were like..say..10 four-oners??
2/8 class spirit. (ironic eh ruoen?)
HAHA tea reception..xiao qi and i MINGLED with the crowd. HAHA.
had to leave soon after to make it to school by 6.30
so left with amanda and faith.
mum picked me from newton and i did the most amazing thing.
I CHANGED IN THE CAR. LOL.
ok well..all passing cars were oblivious since i had a dress on right?
then erm..well..spaghetti strapped so ITS ALL GOOD. (:
pit stop at mom's school to help her squeeze bike in car.
then home for INSTANT NOODLES and im off.

reached school.
briefing.
then NIGHT TOUR BEGINS and we're off to the night safari!

night safari 8pmish:
ok well..this was uber exciting for me more than anyone else since i havnt been there since i was 6!
so wheeeee!!
we walked and walked. lynette and i trailed somewhere up front with ameera (OMG i looked away from the screen and i spelt ameera as maria. HAHA whoops!) and becks.
hippos are still my all time fav animal no matter how flabby the rhinos' butts are!

CREATURES OF THE NIGHT SHOW. haha. ok this is hilarious.. well by the time we got in...all the others had like..found seats. so hannah, jerma, lynette and i like..figured we'd go sit somewhere else..somewhere with a BETTER VIEW. haha. so i asked this VERY NORMAL, VERY SANE, english guy..somewhere in the centre aisle if there was anyone with him.
he was like: no no. go ahead.
so we sat. hannah and jermaine went up.
so then the show began. blah blah blah.
ok then HALF WAY THROUGH.... the english guy i talked to got up..
and started going : oh no! oh no! have u seen something crawling around here?
(lynette looked all shook up)
but like duh. right? so i ignored him and thought..ok..part of the show.
haha. then he got up...and he supposedly lost his pet right?
so bla bla bla....he found his cobra.
whoopee.
but of course lynette and i were laughing kahoonas..cos it was so coincidental tht we ended up picking THOSE seats..
then the guy was abt to head up back next to us with the giant reptile so lynette got all panicky and made me switch place with her.
HAHA
then after tht the lady person lady..told me to pass the guy's bag down..so i picked it up.
then he YELLED for me to put it down. which scared the friggin heck out of me my pulse didnt drop back down till way later when i stole some of leann and hannah's ben&jerry's (: (:

Jln Kayu 12amish:
had a milo dinosaur which took ages to arrive.
renee scared me a little bit. just a little.

safra - bowling 1amish:
i hit 54! uh..i think. or was it 45?
HAHA.
anyhoo..i hit some number.
haha. BECKS..the alltime bowling champ!
RACHEL...the alltime bowling jinx!
haha.
ill just blame my sucky scores on her. or the ball. but it wasnt me.lol.

padang/mostly hotel 3amish:
germaine didnt feel so great so sparrow took a short walk to raffles' swiss.
the guy at the front desk thought we were nuts.
hah. nice aircon...squishy sofas...ah...
anyhoo..we slumped there for a while before returning to do out skit.
which failed to queue germaine and i in. so ah well. haha.
well we bonded over "rebecca says" and tag..and other mindless games. (:
didnt MINGLE with the other patrols. haha im not quite sure what that says about us. lol.

geylang 5amish:
oooo..beancurdy stuff which looks weird when i spell it in chinese so nvm.
had left over food so i presented it to the bus driver..saying we bought it for him.
which made us seem rather nice. haha.

changi beach 6amish:
we sat around while waiting for the sun to rise.
everyone kinda zonked out.
but i just sat there playing with germaine's strange fone game..
then sonia n i followed geraldine and sheral to the toilet cos ms tan sed it wasnt safe.
haha then talked to nooze till the sun looked like it was coming up.
we all sat on the beach. but the sun never appeared.
some sunrise tht was..

back to school around 7.
mum picked me up. slept thought journey home.
then went home, changed and never got up till 3pm. haha. watched tv.
then headed to denise's housewarming.

ive known denise since..FOREVER...she just moved back from hk.sigh. i sympathise.
haha..we always do the dinner/wine thing..so it was great since the last ive seen her was xmas!
haha..we ran out of year books to raid at abt 10?
so i climbed to the very top of her closet to get the old 'game of life' down.
seriously...the last time i touched a board game was at her old place in hk when i was like..in the third grade!haha..on the upside-down sofa.
good times..
by the time we set up..i had to go.so we just played a little. i lost.
HAHA.im not sure if denise or chris won.
ah well..all-in-all...AWESOME DAY. well..two days..

haha.

dad got back on fri.
saturday, had legion and CIP..
then went out for dinner.
mum booked the longbar steakhouse at the raffles hotel.
it was all dim and fancy..which is quite a refreshing change considering all the homecooked food since sitie (looks so much more special than 'siti' doesnt it?) came..
the entire time i actually felt like i was eating cash..one bill at a time..lol
i love the raffles hotel cos it makes everything seem so..i dunno.
but its an awesome feeling.
chris stabbed and jabbed at his lamb..utterly embarassing.
my red eye was good though..mmmmm...
i love dinners when dad gets back..
after dinner i didnt wanna head home..so we drove thru east coast macs for desert..
haha..
suppose to go for haagan daz..but after the longbar cheque we thought otherwise...lol
couldnt find a carpark so went back to eat by the pool..
times to treasure..

2006-08-15T22:39:00.000+08:00

monday was pretty cool..
fooled around in class with my janna nana banana
ms kwan actually checked on us cos we were laughing so hard during english
"Janna, Genevieve? you okay?"
haha..jannavee..lol
oo we made a lakehouse timeline..HAHA
had drama and i nearly got beaten up between janna and joy..when we were doing..watsit? spacejam??
wasnt tht the basketball looney toons show from wayyyy back?
haha.
joy and i did this rapping egg yolk thing..haha
was another high day..
then dear stacy just HAD to go "what's wrong with everyone? why you so low?"
which..duh..is the mood doomer of the century..
so then i was kinda pissed...
then joy came over for chinese then i got all happy again (: thanks jorgeous!
never understand what goes on during chinese..so we started secret rubbish..
cos i had to use up all the scrap paper...its been piling up..finally got rid of APRIL (:
started passing notes..then joy gave me a used up glue stick..so i just glued things to like..dry it up.
then brilliant joy glued the note we were passing to stacy..
haha.
im not sure..but she may not have liked what the note sed..
so she crushed it and got glue all over her hands. lol.
then i got this brilliant beyond brilliant idea..
cos i still had paper..so i figured..why not pull another GEN PRANK.
bow down to the master! woohoo. HAHA
well i did a juvenille..oldest trick in the book one..on stace.
erm..didnt turn out too good...
well yeah..the prank was genius..
stuck a piece of scrap on her back saying " i suck. joy and gen rock my world"
of course..we erm..glued it on. i dunno who's idea tht was..
it was easy getting it on..
but then after a while..it started flinging off..
ppl kept patting her on the back..and sutff..trying to get it on..but erm..yeah..
so before we left..joy figured she'd reglue it..
then i asked her to stick it back on..but she made me do it..
so uh..i did..i mean..i couldnt let a beautiful prank go to waste..
lets just say she didnt figure it out till much later.
so apparently..it wont come off..and i ruined stacy's new blouse..
which i repeat..I AM SO SO SORRY!!
I DIDNT KNOW!! I WOULDNT HAVE IF I DID!!
i am soo willing to get you a new blouse if it really wont come off.

this could so go on an episode of PRANKS GONE WRONG...

today was less of a great day..
my buddy had a cold so she couldnt talk much..
with left me to self amusement..
which im pretty good at by the way..
but i couldnt take the silence..
then thank God she seemed better after practical or i would have died from boredom..
(:
we did my ting xie!! haha
niu tou..buttonhead!!
art was pretty fun..
its gonna be a long term..
a phoenix! brilliant..just great..

(the long lost) SHOUTOUTS!! (:

hs: brilliant idea to set up btw..PRANKS GONE WRONG..
we'd make big bucks!
janna nana banana: make the mail box!! (: button head!! thanks for doing ting xie with me!! haha
just so you know...i got em all right!! (: hope you feel better!!
stacy: im so sorry! really..
jeougeous: i dunno abt tmrw..after mocks isit? i dunno..
xq: powerpuff freeeeeek (:
steph: hey anything happening this weekend? SHOPPING (: (:

i love how the rain falls on the moonroof.
i hate how the shower turns cold just as its becoming warm.

2006-08-11T21:55:00.000+08:00

got back from walking to dan&egan's place with mum..
was a rather nice walk since it's like the first in a really long time mun hasnt had to wash dishes after dinner..
considering the new helper that arrived at abt 8pm last night.
she's rather pleasant except she looked nothing like the photo they showed us. HAHA
i realised the difference between singapore and hong kong domestic help.
In hong kong..ur helper is really like ur sister..or friend....like my dear Liza who was like my big sis since i was 8..who is now back in phili (: suppose to receice her wedding photos which never came in the mail..boohoo
here they're treated like..well...help.
i dont understand that concept...seeing as she lives in ur house..so doesnt that spell out FAMILY?

anyway..yesterday was rather bleh-ish..seeing as it was tuition-full and BORING..
which i shouldnt really be so bummed about cos i kinda planned it tht way..
the old squish-what-sucks-together technique.
but yeah..
oooo joakim cried!! which was just sooooo cute!! no matter what sarah g says!! (: (:
omg i LAUGHED SO HARD when hossan leong said (on rated e)..after flashbacks on sg idol of jacintha saying hady had some sort of synthesis.. that 'at first i thought she meant photosynthesis....but then..hady is not a plant'..!! HAHA its so lame but its the abruptness and the way he sed it tht cracked me up..haha

spent national day with xiao qi at the beach..
we were like the only 2 who actually set our stuff up on the beach itself..HAHA
i mean..why go to the BEACH and but ur BEACH mat on the GRASS??
where's the sense in that?
so we non-paisehly dumped our stuff on the SAND..yes..on the SAND..and then fooled around in the water (: wheee
ooo!! before all tht we bought junk and i got my snapple from 7-11..(: u cant go to the beach without a nice cold kiwi strawberry snapple now can you...
so then we settled on the mat and talked for hours..thank God for my okley shades or id be even more burnt than i turned out to be...
the whole point was for a sunkissed tan...but i turned red for national day...uneven tan made me the singapore flag. woohoo. haha

oh!! when we were like..leaving..we stopped by the waffle shop..
when we entered the guy was like 'sorry, we're kinda out of waffles'
HAHA tht cracked me up. the waffle shop without waffles.
lol.
then one of the guys started asking us abt our age and crap..
he was like..'you in JC?'
then i looked at xiao qi cos i thought he was being sarcastic or something..
lol..and she's like..no..secondary..
as straight forward as she always is.
and then he's like 'sec 4? sec 3?'
then we're like..uh..no.
then he got embarassed and sed we looked older than we are. HAHA
and i mean like HAHAHA LOL.
lol. funny...then we had no choice but to buy something cos of the 'pleasant convo'
tht was the highlight of the day. seriously. lol

there are more..but i look worst than i do in these. so there.

lol..tues was rather awesome too.
eventful you could say..
woke up at 5.30AM!! to get to the stadium by 6.15!
blablabla..did national day ceremony thingy which was rather embarassing since i was standing right in frony of my class and i could feel amanda moey's laughter from where i was standing..
i did the SUMO WRESTLING thing which we WON by the way!! first place!!
whooo go two-eight!
then the champs had to sumo wrestle a teacher..
so rachelle and i figured we'd go...
i SUMO WRESTLED ms DAISY TAN..and WON (: (:
tht was the highlight of the day. well kinda.
MADALENA WON!! wheeeee
plus..

lol..then after when we got dismissed..
we took class pics and jumped on the inflatables.
i gladiatressed with stace..i won of course..HAHA.
after all..she's the skinny one. lol
hung out with gladys after tht..talked at macs..
half the school was at tampines.
went home.
mum brought little cassie home..watched high5 with her for half n hour..then she left and steph came over.
lol..showered then steph n i headed for raffles and then suntec.
we got lost..HAHA.
in this tiny country.
long story but tht cracked me up the rest of the day.
everything was so hilarious.
so we finally got to suntec..then we walked pass all kinds of stores we wanted to go but were too hungry to..ate at KFC
half the time we were laughing so hard it hurt..so i cudnt eat anymore.haha
by like 8.45 everyone was walking towards marina bay..
u literally watch hundreds of ppl walking in the same directions.
like penguins!!
so we watched the fireworks..just steph and i.
which was pretty nice..
i love the singapore national spirit..
thousands of ppl gathered to watch the pre-fireworks.
all in red and white..half the nation dressed in red and white actually.
its rather inspiring.
thts one thing i always admired abt singapore.
the kiasuness can actually be a form of patrioticness..lol..
there was this group of guys ooing and ahhhing to lift spirits.
haha great fun.
i mean..its not like ive never seen firewords before..
but usually its at eye-level..from the hk mountains..
or from the building in china when im actually lighting the fireworks..
but not from the ground when im actually looking above at it all..
its pretty awesome i must say.

all in all it was an exhausting day.
the whole bus ride home i burst into fits of laughter over anything.
steph says its signs of pure exhaustion.
but it was hilarious.
never ever been that tired before.
my legs ached like crap.
haha

ok..now my fingers ache like crap.

out!

2006-08-06T23:12:00.000+08:00

ok ok..since everyone's on my back...ill blog..
so much for wednesdays huh?...haha
i knew it wouldnt last..

alright well here goes..

today:

woke up at like 8 to take chris to tae kwan doe (sp?) grading..
well mum drove but i navigated..so there..
the entire time of sitting on the ledge with tons of kiasu parents surrounding..
i was so lightheaded tht i went to mc donalds for the air...whooh..
he was pretty good i must say..but it took way too long for my liking..
stuff happened..then went home..
fell asleep...then dear xiao qi and clare called..
i didnt know but wen i woke up there were like 13 miss calls frm them altogether..
wanted to go heeren...but i had church..so yeah..
saw sharon, joan, eunice and olivia at church..oh and ms leong!! who i didnt even know was right behind me till mid mass!!
boring day really..had pizza for dinner!

yesterday:
went for legion then CIP at canossaville chidrens home..i go there like how many times a year??
i talked to the lady abt all the kids from last year wen we took the kids to sentosa..
apparently most of them went home!! which is rather nice but i dunno..priscilla went back cos her mum decided she could take care of her already..im not sure if thats good..sweet kid..
rather heartbreaking stories..which really open your eyes...
went back to tanah merah with xiao qi..haha..BONDING!! lol..but tht was fun..
waited for mum with my iced latte which was REALLY REALLY good!!
went for night shopping spree with steph!! got this really cute shirt though im still hung up over the vintage rolling stones one which i so cant afford right abt now.. bleh.
shopping sprees always make me happy (: (:

friday:
oo! after school and training and all which lasted till like 6....went home exhausted...then michelle (shanghai) and char & charles (hong kong) came over..char, mich and i went to tampines..took stickypics..shopped...but we reached there at around 8.30 so there was little time..had macs for supper..then went home at abt 11..
fun fun.. (:

wednesday:
I CLIMBED DOWN THE CANAL OUTSDIDE SCHOOL IN ATTEMPT TO SAVE A CAT! YES I REPEAT..ATTEMPT.
the story is..renee told me a cat was stuck in the canal outside school..she called SPCA but no one came..so after school sonia and i went to check it out..we found it..
soon seniors came..and SJAB ppl..plus clare..
we were all like..surrounding it from above..staring and pointing...
i said id go down...then delvinder (4.7??) was like..yeah go on....and said she'd call the fire dept. if i were to die..lol..great help..
so fine..clare held my stuff..thank God we had training so i didnt need my skirt..
SJAB seniors said they'd standby just in case..LOL..
so i climbed down the canal...which stank btw and had major red ant infestation...
haha ppl were screaming stuff from above but i kinda blurred it all out..considering not wanting to step on the poor kitty trapped between the drain..as i was reaching the bottom of the ladder..eileen (3.5?) said not to step on the drain incase it broke loose..then id die with the cat..
so i jumped over it..and the cat..but when i touched ground..the cat fled.
uh-huh..it wasnt trapped.
i climbed down the disgusting canal for nothing..yup. waytogo gen. lol

friday before that:
went to new cathay..which was awesome..watched the lakehouse with char which was uberly uberly sweet!! ahhh!! keanu ph!! (:
i actually have no idea wht happened besides that..i guess it was a pretty good movie then huh..HAHA

stuff happened..i just dunno what.
weird week. ppl have been so strange.
was a bitch to quite a few ppl..hope they're over it. im sry.
i dunno...just this..

ENOUGH WITH THE DRAMA.
IVE HAD IT.

2006-07-26T22:41:00.000+08:00

wednesday shall be my blogging day. officially.
you know..until i forget and cant be bothered...

well well..i walked home ALONE today..
boohoo..havent done that in a really long time..
spent the extra long busride people-watching and thinking about crap..
sat next to this strange kid with an ipod video...
there was this heavy metalish thing blasting in his ears....
and mine really..and he tried to tap his fingers to the beat..
somehow he was like a second late on each beat which kinda got me worked up..lol.

walked home when this cat jumped out of the bushes and scared me nuts..
met my new upstairs neighbour...
the guys moved out..and i suspect their movers stole my roxy flip flops!!
ugh i still cant get over that..but im trying so friggin hard to convince myself tht he probably needed it more than i did..though he could have taken any other pair around it!!
it had to be my birthday present!!
reached home..dumped bag...nodded off..

school was routine..
oh except i think im addicted to gladys' crosswords..
went to 1/6 in the morning to make cookie announcement.
went back in the afternoon to collect the list..
but dear dear emily TOOK IT HOME! so im listless..
searched the whole school looking for her..that blur block..heh

had english enrichment..
did this debate thingy...which was actually rather fun..
split into 4 groups..
topic: single sex education is the best.
stacy did opening statement.
then mr shawn asked who wanted to challenge her..
so i looked around and everyone was staring at their books..reluctant to look up.
so i raised my hand (which i almost never do in class)
ive been needing a good challenge anyway...
so yeah.
i am TOTALLY AND UTTERLY FOR CO-ED SCHOOLS..
but i was suppose to be opposing..haha.
kinda ironic if you think about it..seeing as most of them have been girl-schooled and im the opp.
anyway anwyay..thts wat debating is isnt it..ppl just assume thats your side.
so it went on for a while..
the whole 'school' debate turned into a 'homo' debate...
HAHA that sounds weird!
but the topic kinda changed over time..
then people started adding in..
then gladys whined and whined cos she wanted to say stuff..
so i sat down..
i have NO CLUE what she was talking about..as usual...
kinda off topic if you ask me..
so yeah...
it kinda got aggressive as we went on..
judy was a seat away from me..moaning abt how bored she was..
patti was killing me cos she was for the opposition..
then ruoen from the opposition helped me out..gerri too....
lol emilia helped to shush everyone along the way..haha
and then nicole reminded everyone to stay on topic..
soon after..mr shawn stopped the debate..
but it was fun. fun and FRIENDLY.
stacy seemed tense so i checked if she wanted to kill me..
she gave me the 'yeah, its ok'
which could mean..'i dun wana kill you..we're ok'...or....'yeah i wanna kill you....but its ok'
(yes i do know she can read this..) heh.

uh-huh...oo i loved ken's salmon shirt which totally mismatched his watch..but still..
and dear dear abishiganaden(isit?)...HAHA

other stuff happened but im kinda zonking out.. for some reason im dead tired and my head's killing me..ooph.

out!

2006-07-19T21:53:00.000+08:00

walked to the bus stop with sonia after english enrichment.
haha i dont see the point of it anyway..
i spent the whole hour doodling with patti and then joy, janna and i started singing lame classics.. like the oh-so-close-to-our-hearts 'oops i did it again' and trying to recall lyrics to 'sundance'..
HAHA tht was fun.
janna slapped my ass and told me it was hard..LOL
so i told her not to be such a hardass..HAHA gettit? lol.
she said hers was like her face. lol.

on the way out of school i saw every single sec 2 guide...and then later MOST of my seniors..
one by one..haha. tht was really strange. i realise we travel in packs, subconsciously of course cos we're not together. heh. ranie and cassandra at the staff room..rebecca and clarissa at the spiral staircase..sonia walking out so i stopped her..jacinta with her frends..cheryl, sheral, geraldine, amanda..all with their own friends..renee..lynette. then we saw the amiras and shafi at the coffee shop..then natassia at the bus stop..and so on...it was nuts.

went to 7-11 (: treated myself to jumbo ruffles which will prob last me the week.
fell asleep the minute i touched home ground.

woke up for dinner.
spent time with my family which was pretty great.
we sat at the table snacking right after dinner..talking abt random stuff..
then did strange mind quizes with chris..diagnosed him as 'pretty dumb but not stupid'

hmm..singapore idol.
haha not gonna comment on this..
now its close to 10 and i havnt done anything constructive the entire day.
wheeeeee another typical day in the life of gen.
but it was rather great.

2006-07-08T22:13:00.000+08:00

ok so everyone's bugging me to blog.
and its been uber long since so here goes..
lets start with a week ago..
oo! had walkathon!!
tht was kinda boring since it was basically a walk in the park...
but we ached all over from who knows what..
but then nurul sonia n i hung out at junction 8..
ate at macs..hotcakes! mmmm...
heh tht was fun..got my fishbone earrings back!! just in diff color (which got lost yesterday..but yeah..boohoo)
then sonia left and nooze and i went to suntec hoping to catch a movie.
then we reached and realised we just missed just my luck.
so nooze called home to check if anyone knew the nearest cinema and movie timings..
so her erm..'sister' sed marina square at 2 pm.
but it was like already 1.50pm!
so we figured we came all the way so we mite as well..a few mins wun hurt..
but we searched and searched..ending up on diff floors to find the shortest way to get out of the darn building!
haha..then we found the exit below..only to find it led to millenia walk not marina square..
lol..by then we were erupting with giggle fits...
so i pretended i knew where i was going..then randomly pointed in directions and went..'there'.
haha nurul kept asking if i was sure..lol..doubt me.
but yeah..so we ended up finding familiar things..but not the building..
then we were abt to give up when i was like 'where the hell is marina....SQUARE!!!!'
cos out in the clearing stood a building..of which i could only see the word 'square'...
omg we were laughing so hard..
then we realised we were on the wrong side of the road and it was IMPOSSIBLE to jay..
and it was like 2.10!!
then we ran around till we found like..the pan pacific hoping it connected. hah. it so did not.
then we found this overhead bridge which looked impossible to climb seeing as we were dead exhausted. but we did.
then we reached in and were like..erm..where's the cinema?
each time we looked at the directory we realised there was a sign above our heads pointing in the direction..lol
so we finally got there..bought the tickets and stuff..then sat down.
then suddenly the titles popped out and it was like 'just my luck'
omg we broke out in laughter again..we made it in at 2.20pm and it just started!!
lol..just our luck id say...haha lame pun.
so there..tht was a fulfilling sunday..
nooze got so psyched over dougie from mcfly.
hah.

ok then we have the weekdays..
hmm...oo i gave a dead cat a proper burial!!
lets see..how did tht day go?
ahhh right..ordinary day..then had lunch with uh..sarah lizzie gerri judy nic yw gladys stace...if im not rong.
then we stalked sarah and lizzie to see where their hideout was..hah.
tht was fun..yw n i led infront..the others played along..haha.
then they spotted stacy in red!!
so we ran after them..
a truck almost killed me.
then we hung out at the playground..
played on the spiderweb..then gerri and i sat there talking abt superpowers..
then stacy came and then judy...and we talked...
then the others came..and the convo burst so we played freeze tag. haha
fun..
then back to sch..
stacy and i went to look for sarah anne who totally disappeared..
so we went to music room for her PB thing..hung out behind..cos mr juraimi was like in a bad mood..talked to ph for a while..hah. then she had to go play..
so stace and i hung out behind cracking up over the most random things..
heh.
then..we left..and found sarah anne who made us do stuff..
but played with double-sided tape instead!
then walked out while observing new zealand ppl..
heh.
walking towards bus stop while trying to peel tape of my arm..
then stace yelled..and i screamed...to find the most disgusting sight ever!
there was a dead white cat which seemed to be headless..with giant red ants crawling all over it!
so apparently i 'demanded' we put a box over it..though stacy thought i was nuts.
then her family started turning up so she left..and i stole an empty drink carton box from the confectionary store opp sch and placed it over the cat.
(apparently maxine saw it (: so yay. i helped)
i mean..u cant leave a dead body exposed like that. its wrong. cat or not.

then yesterday we went swimming at nic's place with gerri judy nic stace emz lizzie sarah..
sarah and i planned this whole workout at the gym..but ended up only swimming.
20 laps for a start..and nic's pool is HUGE btw so its good enuff.
hung out..played in uber cool baby pool..
and the fountain! took pics!

ok these are the only ones i dare to put up.
heh.

stacy left at abt 5.
gerri left a little bit before 7.
judy sarah emz and i left at abt 7.
lizzie left..later? (:
emz went home.
judy bought a chillo.
then we split.
long day..whooph.

OH!!! i almost totally forgot!!
the pics from the biggest PARTAY of the YEAR (: (:
haha its no super sweet 16..but it was awfully awesome according to me!

i think sarah anne's laughing but she looks constipated. lol

mmmmm...there was a food overload. so i ended up eating it the rest of the week.
dont get me wrong..it was goooooooood..credit to emz who started the fire (:

(:

haha..the ppl on the side got dunked in...no wait..so did everyone else!!! (:
fun fun

mmmmm chocolate!! i had 2 cakes this bday..uber yum!
lol i remember last yr my dad got the ppl in the restaurant bring the cake out and the performing lady on stage sing happy bday to me..this was wayyyy less embarassing

haha...there are more but im lazy to put up cos this is taking forever!

we played tug-of-war across the pool..you know..cos the loser would fall in and all..
but then the rope (made of class cloth(: ) SNAPPED! haha so we thought we won..and the other side thought they won..both sides just fell backwards..haha..tht was funny.
everyone got dunked at least twice! except sarah anne maybe cos of well..bleh.
even dragged gerri while she was fanning the fire to the pool but the amateur dunkers kept dropping her. hah. thts when we lost the fan for the fire which btw got soaked in the water along with her. haha
we bought waterguns days before...but after playing water war games at nic's place.. everyone forgot to bring!! haha but we had beach balls and stuff..
ahhhh fun! the good post-exam days (:

2006-06-09T23:20:00.000+08:00

alright..so now i totally recall why i never blogged.
blogging totally takes away what makes the day special..
so u have a whole bunch of fun..then writing abt it makes u put it down in words and all of a sudden..it aint seem so great no more.
yeah..words just spoil the fun.
u gotta be there to get it!
though i realised tht since i stopped blogging..like...how long ago..
my vocab like dropped...way deep.
coincidence?

ok so world cup in less than half n hour!!!
yeah im not footy crazy..but world cups just get u all psyched up!!
i remember like..2002..at lil natasha's place..
dinner party as usual..
parents with wine glasses....kids with coke n chips..
running up and down the hallway..eager to catch a glance at the game..
the sudden screams of joy and disappointment coming from the living room..
brazil.
good times..good times..

went to the science centre with chris, dan , 'gan yesterday..
was suppose to go to help mum check the place out cos she's bringing her kids on a field trip kinda thing there next week..
ended up having a ball though.. (:
who wud have thought yeah?
for some apparent reason..i wore the tiny white heels..
so i ended up running around barefoot with my shoes in my hands. lol
anyway..there was tht ultra cool machine which took pics of us then told us how we'd look or how we used to look..inacurate but sooo amusing!
haha..
felt like a little kid again.
totally my aim this holiday though.
jumped on music sensing keys..
played with 'plastic surgery'
played hide and seek..lol!
major fun!
but like i sed...u gotta be there to get it!

i figured a whole bunch of stuff i really wanna do this hol.
then i noticed tht half of it has gone by!!
and all ive done are the shopping bits!
i think ive spent as much in the past week than i shud have the whole hol.
so there. im done. *crosses fingers behind back*
we all know ill never stop. (:
ill make a list of the stuff and see what i accomplish..
