"stress is the word that describes how everyone is feeling right now. schoolwork; tests;cca;datelines;tuition;piano exami shall not complain x)"

that was taken from melissa's blog. i agree. school work, tests, quizzes, cca, tuition, piano exam, violin exam, projects... they are never ending. NEVER.i feel like killing myself, then i would not have to face all these. and i'm only in sec 2. go to school, "english project how?", "geog project how?", "art how?". still got sec 4 farewell this sat and kar mun's last farewell party on sunday. there. a weekend gone. save me from this terrible dream. oh yeah, i'm dreaming... wake up and it'll all be over.

YAH RIGHT.

==============

today's practice at the primary school rocked. assigned to new bells. my fingers were pain, and the whole hand was super red. just holding bells. some more those were the smaller bells. i admire the way wanyi does it. esp at the complicated part. like, whoa.. plus not complaining about hand pain, not like me. now, just thinking of the little bells make me go stiff.

i think the song sounded fantastic. and it will sound better if all three schools are combined together. am i suay or what, both pieces of paper (scores ?) kena written on by mr fong. 1 piece is he used a marker and now i cant see the other side with the notes. how sway can i get. oh yaa just now i got home and realised no key. so i was trapped outside. welllll. it's getting late. good night!

ohmy

oh. my. gosh.

i can't believe that. i just cannot. i sacrificed so much time on a book. a book called harry potter and the half-blood prince. it's 12am, there's a test today (as today is monday). i got the book yesterday, at $40 with a $10 voucher and a rubbish little bag worth $3.90.
anyway.
the train stations yesterday were crowded like anything, which reminded me of miss tan. yeah, miss t². about s'pore being over-populated. true, true.
i spotted a mistake in the book. Rowling was put 'Rupert' instead of 'Ron'. RRRRRs.
it's so sad.. the person whom we least expected...... died. and all that stuff about voldermot. and malfoy and the room of requirments. the death eaters. you might think all these are junk. but these junk kept my eyes glued to the book for hours. the author has a way to make you want to go on reading, like yesterday i was reading on the sofa and fell asleep and woke up on the sofa. duh, i slept there. snape. dumbledore trusted him too much. how could he. so harry was right after all. i urge people to get this book, only if there is time to read it. don't end up like me, plastered to it and forgot to study for geog test.

seriously, i was quite surprised after seeing the 3 tags from seniors. like so.. unexpected. my blog has been abandoned, in a way... like no one tagged for a long time. didn't expect ppl to pop by here, while i went around tagging 'hello.'s. am i feeling embarrased? no. not used to it, maybe.

still very uncomfortable, for the fact that i've wasted my time on a harry potter book.

i am very stressed out, it's another busy week ahead of me. my parents' cell bonding is this saturday, i don't know what kind of games we are going to play. it's not easy being the planner. i've yet to approach mrs teo regarding basketball, for fear of being reprimanded about baking out last minute. but what choice do i have, it seems like handbell is more important, you know... i can't possibly persuade her to change the time, right? and not forgetting piano and violin exams.. there's not enough time to even lay hands on my instruments. i'm not even reading my bible and praying. distractions, temptations are blocking my way, and i cannot avoid the pile of activities i am having.

*faints*
(i did not take an hour to post this, i paused and read up about empoldering and land reclamation, pig.)

eeeeeeekkkkks

yuck yuck yuck yuck yuck my brother just showed me the stuff from his nose. so gros pls!

there are a no. of things to thank God for
1) My ezlink card has been found! but not too sure abt the wallet . God answered my prayers.
2) Simon's mom is better now.
3) 1 salvation last Sunday!
4) New exco's elected.
5) Lit, physics and chem tests are over! not too much to worry for the week.
6) YPM worship team! we so rock.
7) new timetable, so PE's not after recess and i can, once again, eat as much as i like w/o worrying abt puking

there is something i want to say.. [it's my blog i can say anyone i want to, duh]
NEVER EVER SUPPORT NKF
even came out in the papers today. about that chief. some chief he is. 1k on a tap. toilet bowl from Germany. siao! like hello it's just a toilet why use the money meant for patients to get a toilet like this. my mother has always disliked NKF and she knows the company is dishonest, even before the article came out. i agree with miss loh for once. no good to have the artises risk their life doing stunts when all the money raised goes to an idiotwho spends them all on himself? has anyone ever stopped to think, NKF raises so much money every year, where does all the money go to? there's enough for the victims of these horrible diseases, isn't there? aren't we all being very stupid? i think we are. yah really, a few million is definitely enough to help them. but every year it seems the patiens do not benifit from the fund. the money flies into the company's ever-stretching pocket. ridiculous. i rather donate to the community chest.

A few birthdays in August..
8- Shu En
13- Yu Ting
15- Jiahui
16 ( i think) - Zelia
18- Mine and Melissa Png's.

there's more, just that i can't remember. :) now i remember something. there's some dumb research to do on technology, for a compo test tmr. for what? for english. either i don't like the teacher, or the HODs for giving tons of tests. research. a pain

i seem to be complaining about everything. don't forget i've had some things to give thanks.

hey

it seems like months since i last posted.

so many things have happened. too many.
chapel performance is over, i think we sucked for the sec 1 chapel. overall, it wasn't good. [i bet christabel was grinning her head off when she heard us. ]

new exco has been chosen. i want to congratulate wanyi, wenxin, lynette and melissa png. though i know desiree is very disappointed. my heart goes out to her. (eeks this sounds so... bleh.) of all the sec 4s, i think i'll miss melissa chua the most. she's da best. that's my opinion.

methodist get together, founder's day... practices with the primary school on wednesdays 2.30 to 3.30!!! i am SO dead. we were informed of this only after i signed up and paid for basketball for nyaa. that starts at 3. what am i going to do???? leave the pri sch at 3.15 and rush back reach at 3.45, and miss 45 mins of it? i really don't know. very confused..i don't think i have the money to take a cab as well... hrrr. there's so much going on, i don't even have the time to worry about the upcoming physics, chemistry and lit tests which are on the same day. plus that pressure from jacqueline to practice my violin and from my piano teacher to practice.. ahhhhhhh. shitto. how how. exams are next month you know.then there's the handbell performances, exams, and on the 1st saturday of sugust 5 hours of library work. and what about my friends' birthdays? in my clique some more? still have their presents to settle. little me juggling giant things. i feel like an ant again. this time it's a slave and under pressure. and it's the queen ant who's giving lots of work. the more i think of it, the more i'm scared. not forgetting my studies. they're more important. streaming. this batch of sec 2s is not as easy as you think. i'm in a C class. go ahead, look down on me. oh God, please help.

today er is yesterday i went to do shelve books at the library again. the librarians are so naggy. "you must straighten the books..." "no no no, don't take the books from there, that one haven't return.." hellooo? the other librarian saw me taking the books from the right shelf. " "why so slow? do faster lah...." still have to put up with them for another 10 hours. mind you, we're not your slaves. and the kids. mess up the books. see already can get headache. so it is very important to put the books back at the right place, after you browse through them. and when dumping books into the bookdrop, do it slowly. or it'll cause a jam. return the books to the library you borrowed from. like, borrow from hougang return to hougang. it's a lot of work, having to return the books to other branches and packing them up.

i grabbed a burger and went to the bus stop. with lai theng. waited for 153, reached church at 4.30 for the bonding thing. more like retreat.observed the main team (adults) how they practiced. there was this thing, you had to"punch" together.ahem. for us singers it was something from sue ern, teaching us about harmonising and voice production and warming up and all that.. i think we did ok.the 'tsk tsk' one was hard. a little. oh yah and she also like got us to sing scales (only the 1st 3 notes accending and desending [did i spell it correctly]) and she took down our voice range, but still haven't tell us who's alto and soprano. harmonising was fun, but it wasn't our first time doing it. we know what it's like.
all of us went back to the chapel and "jammed". joel led, dunno who played drums bass and guitar, charmaine and sheena played the keyboard and the rest of us shared the mic.5 ppl share 2 mikes. and dinner. pizzas, thank my pa melvin for paying. [don't forget, wendy is still my mummy] and the biggest eater goes to......... ling jia's brother. for finishing up the leftover pizzas. haha. hey that's the 1st haha in today's entry.
a time of worship led by boon yeow. when the entire team worshipped and sang out to God. hen hao. and something from melvin, he taught us abt some stuff. which he waill repeat tmr. then go home. christel still ask me to call her when i reach home. aww. isn't that nice. lol..

yesterday, no, yesterday the yesterday, had violin "lesson". by jac. wah want to die eh. practice in 2a1 classroom. when i went up to class to get my stuff, i could hear someone shout stop and the violin sound. so loud eh. so my pieces are A:2, B:1 and C:1. grade 2 aural. i forgot what it's like. piano teacher must help me. only know that it's definitely much easier than grade 6 aural. hahahaha. the violin was so loud, i could even hear it while walking out of the school gate, and to the bus stop where i met xi ying and took the bus together then i dropped at the church stop and went to the office to complete maths homework and then went to the chapel for worship prac. which was until 8. charmaine and i had dinner with christel and jon and rachel and her bf, dunno who, who got dinner for us. FOC. i feel bad, still going to pay.

wah very early hor, sunday liao leh. i'm awake. let's see... pearlyn is also awake. church one laa. for me, thank God for the day and go to bed. i don't want to be late tmr. i mean, today.

yo

yesterday night. 3 cheers for it! took the bus with last year's sec 4s, elizabeth's batch, uncle david and auntie maggie, jia yan, my mother n father, and some others. we reaached there late, so hundreds of eyes were glued on us when we strolled in. so embarrasing pls.. but anyway.

the worship was fabulous. the choir, dancers, musicians and flags. yeah, i said flags. God must be extra delighted to see most of His christians here gather here to pray for Asia and praising Him as one nation. Personally, i think ppl my age are too young to knock on neighbours' doors and preach... no one is too young to do His work, though. as a start, i think we should try to bring our cliques to Christ, then the rest of the classmates, then other school mates, and then when we are confident enough then to our block.

East Timor. it reminds me of the clay marble book. seems as if they're having a war there. it's the youngest and poorest nation in asia. as we look back, we are reminded abt how S'pore gained independence. our country's very blessed. look at her today. only 40 but so advanced. walk down the streets, observe ppl and all the more we think they should know Jesus.

--------------------------------------------------
