PMS-ing. Either that, or I'm getting emotional.

I wanted to give moral support... but was kinda misunderstood.

Was I at the wrong place at the wrong time?

Misunderstood is the word.

Or am I just being paranoid?

I don't think so.

Oh wells.

I can only hope for the best.

Didn't expect the day's events to turn out like ... that.

It just had to add on to my already crappified mood.

haha.

I screwed both bio and chem papers today.

=( and I'll get a 5 or 6 for O's if I don't start working hard...

Science tuition! Riiiight.

No money no talk.

I talked to Wen Xin today. Yay.

Sighhhhhhhh

I miss my seniors.

(it's random talk, this post. pardon the mood.)

when everything goes downhill

yesterday:

Was late for worship prac, which was supposed to be at 10am.
Yeah, freaking early.
But that's cos' some needed to do worship for the wedding in the afternoon also.

Youth Ablaze.. ok la. Just an ok.
I need that spiritual zest man.
Cell was terribly quiet, the atmosphere was crap.
But it's good in the sense that there was time for me to reflect.
And pray a bit.
I didn't feel that good also cos' of the worship debrief earlier..
The worship (unfortunately) was quite screwed up. Technically.
Instrumental part for one of the songs went off, veh messy. Lol.
So back to the cell part, I was quite overwhelmed with (insert word here), and realised I have a lot of struggles...
What Sharon and Wan Hui said applies to me too.
Not just Clarissa and Jacelyn who posted the questions.

Dinner at uncle Roy and auntie Ee Koon's house was pretty...
boring.
Their neighbour had lion dance, so noisy la.
Reminded me of our E maths test on friday, come and dong dong qiang and interrupt everyone's train of silent calculations.

Today:

(better make this quick, gotta go back to my books! bio and chem test tmr. aaaaarghhwrh)

Chinese tuition. Urgh no comments.
That's partly the cause of ......

Didn't go for service =(

Went to Tan Tock Seng Hospital with Jacelyn Kai Wei and others (Poh Cher Joelynne Keng Ling Jia Jun Joshua Tan) to visit Smarties...
Bought some stuff for him and the cab fare was quite a lot.
There goes my money.. Haha. At least we made someone happy.
Travelling time (to and from) was close to 2 hours pls..
Got a huge scolding from my dad over the phone, for taking too long.
Not my fault wad, public transport..
Then I go all the way there, he expects me to just stay for 10-15mins?!?!
Whatever man...
I didn't really care anyway.

Yeah so.
I wonder... how Smarts can still be so calm and cheerful even when he knows he's going for surgery the next day. Tomorrow lor.
I'm amazed.
He must be hiding his anxiety. (How can anyone not be anxious?)
Or if you look at it in another way...
This is how God works.
His arm looks really bad. Dunno how he's gonna play the drums and sports and all that next time...
Well at least we know that God has planned everything already.
So just have faith. Yupps.

Apologies to Joey and my math tutor.............
There wasn't enough time, so had to postpone.
Sorry sorry =(

To make matters worse,
I came home only to face the cane. That's another story altogether.
It's a 15-year-old's nightmare.

get well soons

Wah, I think my friends are unlucky.
To make it sound more awful, you're unlucky if you're my friend.
Why do I say so?

Last Wednesday, Lai Theng sprained her ankle during PE.
She fell. And was absent on Thursday.
And need to go for some therapy.
Looks quite bad.

Today, Smarties fell and broke his arm.
Pray hard he doesn't need to go for surgery!!
And WTH, he finds TTSH "very comfortable" and has "good food". -__-'''
Worse than Lai Theng.

Wow man.

...

Mr Fong reads our blogs!!
Because he said he has nothing to do, very free, so he went to google "pl handbell blog".
Obviously mine appeared there la, 4th one some more. (!!!!)
But I have nothing to fear la.. Never say anything negative about the group.
So far 95% of my handbell-related posts are like,
I LOVE HANDBELLS
this kind. So yeah.
Hello Mr Fong and juniors (if you even bothered to google it)

SYF, gold with honours, our stunning prize, here we come!!

...

Eh, you. Yes you. The private blog keepers.
WHERE IN THIS BLOG HINTS THAT I'M ATTATCHED?
Where got where got where got!
Don't have lor, I'm not "act innocent"!
And don't anyhow say things hor!

some life

Hello.
At this moment, I feel as if we're about to sit for a major exam in less than 12 hours' time.
I think it's just me lah.
It's so scary!!!
Common tests have never seemed like exams to me!
The pile of books and stacks of paper are screaming out,
"READ ME"
oh my goodness so freaky!
Pure geog SS music tests! Never felt so nervous over common tests before lor!

Ok, my CNY was kinda boring.
I was staring at the TV, or reading up on the Marriane Chong book which I brought along with me (it's called Aspects Of Human Geography by the way. Since when did the author's name replace the title??), or sleeping. ZZZzzzz
Many people didn't turn up for Sunday's combined service..
I went with Jacelyn.
It's only right that we honour our God by going to church and 拜年 first thing in the morning.
After all, He is the King of kings and we ought to go to Him first right.

Yesterday was slightly more interesting though.
Visitors come, I take "refuge" outside. Haha.
Went to Fiona's house to 拜年, sit around, talk...
With Xi Ying, En Mei and Joyce Lee.
Then all of them came over to my house to 拜年.
That's when I saw En Mei's true colours. SHE REALLY CAN EAT.
All of us were like busy chatting away, and she just sat there concentrating on her food. This girl, best.
然后,Fiona and her sis had to go for some dinner, so all of us marched to Xi Ying's house.
Badminton! Lol. I seriously never play for a long time liao.
And of course to 拜年 la.
The badminton thing was super cartoon. Scream here scream there.
J Lee had to go, so bye bye lor. My new "twin". =D
Ahahaha. AND THEN. EM XY and I attempted to study.
With all the CNY goodies and the bottle of coke on the table.
Ok, I did absorb SS stuff.
En Mei's face showed 2 words, "I'M HUNGRY".
So whatever food I took out from the container, I'd take an extra one and put in front of her.
Each time, she would shake her head, refusing to eat.
HAHA. The cornflake cookies and the choco thingy were holding signs like "EAT ME".
It was only a matter of time before she gave in to temptation and took the delicate piece of, uhm, food (-.-) and put it into her mouth.
Xi Ying was laughing away.
So yes, believe it or not, that's the climax of my CNY.

If I had a chance to nominate bloggers with 'the most inspirational blog' award, the nominees would be (in random order):
1. Elizabeth Thia
2. Melvin Goh
3. Joanne Foo
4. Lynn Ern

I bolded their names cos' they update quite regularly, and I'm almost always inspired and impressed by their posts.

Lai Theng, get well soon!!!!

tag replies
[sop] haha, welcome! collected lots of $$$?
[jace] that's the whole point, i don't want ppl to read the content, so i blog in CL. =P
[fish!] very disturbing meh?! i finally found out why i couldn't type chinese characters earlier! so just play around with it lor.
[xiying] yeah, i don't mind! today's study session was rather productive, yes? not bad not bad. there was the presence of edible stuff but it dind't really affect our revision.

恭喜发财!

Read this! It's crappy Chinese so it's easy to understand. I know most people's reactions will be, "wah, one whole chunk of cheena words! forget it, i'm not reading." But this is my first attempt to blog in mandarin.. I'm hoping it's not too 'rubbishy'.

你好!
时光飞逝,新的一年又到了!我很想穿新衣 =P
And i can't wait to get my 红包!有钱拿嘛。
可是, 我不能好好的过新年。我去亲戚的家拜年, 还要带课本去读书呢!
嘿,为什么老师们都要在华农历子年的时候给我们排满测验?!

这好像是我第一次在布博客里打话文字哦。
没有人会读的啦。不要紧,这样比较好。
除非陈老师到这里来读... 她可能会为我觉得骄傲!我在开玩笑啦。

我的华文补习老师本来说要八点半来的,人在哪里??
我想,她一定是忘记了。这对我来说,有好和坏处。
好处:能帮我的爸爸妈妈省钱,我也不用那么辛苦得在座子前做别的学校的考卷。
坏处:老师会问/骂我。为什么没有打电话问他今天的补习课如何。 (我用的字对吗?)
Eh Smarties, your Chinese teacher FORGOT TO COME!

几天前,我校的学生都自己,和朋友之间庆祝情人节
我收到了很多糖果(tooth decay, 我来也...)和蜡烛, 也收到了两朵漂亮的花。
非常感谢我的朋友们用这些小小的礼物为我带来‘幸福’。
(i know啦,我的华文真的向大一样!)
当然,我知道valentine's day in our school is when we express our love for our friends (sounds wrong) by showering them with gifts.
But we love them every other day =)

昨天,我校庆祝了农历新年
华文老师们都设计了一各很精彩的节目给我们享受。
最难忘的是那个马来舞蹈,全校都和他们一起唱,“yeah yeah”!哈哈。非常可笑。
我觉得昨天古筝团的表演不太好,他们弹的歌曲错误良多。
节目结束后,我班的级任老师为我们买了许多事物。

我和我的好朋友 Lai Theng 到小学去拜访老师。
我非常想念他们!

Our batch (the 1991 ppl) have been through all the primary and secondary school renovations/PRIME projects.
So have some sec 5s '07 and retainees.
Remember the old primary school building... damn old.
We were only in P1/2 then.
After that they renovated it and we said hello to the NOISE.
I can still remember the bridge thingy which links the two blocks together!
We would go there and stamp our foot. Haha.
So we got to study in the old and new school building.

Then most of us went to PL sec after our PSLEs,
it was the old building then. With the museum and all.
We spent our sec 2 and 3 life over at PL Kadesh, then back to our promised land at Lorong Ah Soo.
So that's PL pri old and new, PL sec then the holding sch then the current new one. 
I suck when it comes to expressing all these in words la. 

嘿,向往过去的感情..

我用了一个小时把这个 blogpost 打出来!

PL has sporty talents also lor, I think the school's a little biased.

I watched Jillian and Su Ann compete with the table tennis peeps from Anglican High last Friday, and screamed with the others who came to support and watch the match.
I thought they were going to lose la, thank God they didn't.
Couldn't stay to watch cos' of CCA.

Today, Wen Yi and I went to watch the table tennis girls again.
First one was this nerd-looking girl, by the name of i-dunno-what, and her opponent was just power la!
I have no idea which school, just support PL! Lols.
Kept on smacking and attacking and aiming for the corner, in the end she kept missing the other half of the table.
Aiyah, I dunno how to describe la.
But yeah that one got my pulse racing.
Adrenal glands also released a lot of adrenaline, she looked so close to losing!!
Means she won.
The next one was dunno who and who compete with who and who, they looked quite okay.
Just got the feeling that they'll win and so they did. Haha.
Not as tensed as Jill and Su's though.
Then the next one, ah this time I know who.
Candice against some girl... so obvious who would win lor.
The first round was 11-1!!!!
Candice is just, wowwwwwwww.
I'm speaking from a sports idiot's point of view, also from one who HAD no interest in watching this kind of matches.
PL is so blessed in the area of sports.

I failed my geography assignment.

I kena-ed from Ms *** during maths today cos' I forgot to get my test paper signed and handed in.
Not fair lor, Candice also never hand in!!
She picked PQ Hannah and I out.. we're from 4c2.
Then 4c1 never mention anyone. Hmph.
at least she didn't sit and squash me.
After that she did the introduction to the new chapter...
and introduced her favourite cartoon character ("childhood memories" again)
DORAEMON.
(pronounced doh-ree-mon or doh-ray-mon or?? hers is "doh-rai-mon")
She went on about how it took out bread from its magic pocket to 'photostat' the pages of the textbook, then when the boy ate it he would remember all his stuff.
Wth???
If you did that for every page, you'll be so super overweight and confined to your bed la pls!
So lame, but we had a good laugh.
No link please. HAHA.

Desiree came for out practice today! =)))))
Thank you so much for helping us with the design of the costume!

Out of all the handbell rules, I like the respect one best.
It says "respect seniors and teachers".
I believe that includes "don't try to 'overpower' them".
But yeah anyway, this is good because juniors can warn me of peg monsters in the room.
I DON'T LIKE TO BE PEGGED.
STOP PEGGING MY HAIR PINAFORE COLLAR POCKET HORRRRR.
THE PEGS ARE MEANT FOR THE SCORES, NOT PUT ON PEOPLE.
You flaccid lazy pig. Wahahahs.

?

Honestly, I've never spent SO much money before!
Without my parents some more!
But I feel quite satisfied.. flats, fake berks, 2 skirts, 2 tops, a sb and a dress.
Bought a dress last month and a skirt last afternoon.
(joyce you think you very rich is it...)
But but but I hardly shop!

Hui Ling is THE BEST.
Take SOOO much time in front of the mirror in the fitting room,
"aiyah should I buy this..."
And she ended up buying 2 shirts which she didn't even try -.-!!!!
Girl ah, since you like tree trunks so much, why not you go and stay in the forest?

I owe Man Ling $3.90!
Rawrhh. Get the black one!
Then we can wear the same design out. Haha, and make Ling Ying aka the flaccid pig buy the pink/purple one.



How ah how ar??
Whether to get bio/chem tuition from Rasmus/Rastus????
If they have acids and salts and carbonates and alkalis and bunsen burners and basically everything you find in a science lab, it'll be a definite yes.
But my science theory is getting quite shitty...

The day went on pretty well.

I got 6 missed calls (had piano lesson) from the same person who gave me 5 missed calls the other time.
Wahlau, not like it's an emergency right!
Wahahahs.
The next time it'll be 7.

SS quiz was fun, as in really quiz and not "quiz" which end up like tests.
Aahhhh. haha
With Sheila Tania and Madeline, the brains.

English lesson was, watching En-Ci and Vanessa debate over the cycling tracks and fruit trees and cars run on hydrogen etc etc.
Laughing session.

Our Chinese class (the lousiest, Mrs Tan HH's) is damn funny.
Another laughing session sia.
It's like, we can't read for nuts.
Mrs Tan attempted to make us to take turns to read, one person one sentence.
But it's like totally CMI. Cannot Make It. So she gave up.
Now we read as a class.
Correction: "read", lol!
When we read together, we'll stop at the same word, cos' all of us dunno how to read that same word!
Otherwise we'll read in unison, then shoot off in 'different directions', reading at our individual pace(s?). Sounding like this,
"Rr rha erreierrrr ralrrrr *mumble mumble*.. erer rhhe ueekww HAHAHAH"
Ok, maybe I'm the only one laughing, because the actuall thing when heard just makes me wanna laugh my butt off the chair!
Then lao shi will go,
"ni men shi zen yang du de ah? cong xin zai du!"
(is that how you read? read it again!)
And the whole scene repeats itself.

I failed badly for the previous 2 bio quizzez (single digit) so I made sure I scored full marks for todays quiz, and I did!
Whooooo.
But it won't help much cos' the other 2 quizzes are still crap.

And then the POA, my hard work paid off.
All glory to God =)
Though I can honestly say that I didn't mug as hard as Sheila.
Only digested a bit the night before, then sat for the test feeling as anxious as everyone else.

then went handbell prac... but looks more like PE lesson. cos three of us locked ly n ethel outside the handbell rm! then after tt bored liao. unlocked let them in.... and joyce n i ended up being "punished" by them.... they tickled us non-stop till we both roll on the floor like dog like tt.... then joyce n i put pegs all over ly, she dun even noe la! until very very long......... then she realised lol. so overall jus play n play n still play....

From Man Ling's blog. (above)
Haha, those 2 are flaccid! Got so much strength to tickle us until like that!
Sure kena from Ling Ying tomorrow cos' I put a peg on her hair...

The fun and laughter we have during handbell practices..
Treasue it cos' we only have about 3-4 months left before we step down and stop CCA.
I SO love handbells.
Thanks so much, to the 2 "repairmen" who helped me collect my dictionary from Creative@PS, and delivering it to my doorstep!
Excellent service sia.
All for the price of $0.
No la, it's friendship =)

Dunno why I just felt like blogging about today...

competitivity (?!)

Blessed sweet 16th Priscilla!
We may not be in the same level and class now, but I still love you!
Please overcome your fear of cockroaches! Or I'll get lotsa xiao qiang pics and torment you with it!

I have one new fear:
Washing my hair.
Damn unusual right?

Because it's then that I see lots of loose hair, and I'm dropping hair like nobody's business!
Freaky!
Like, I massage my scalp, ... then I look at my hands.
HAIR. Oh no la.
How. I'm either getting cancer (haha) or balding or getting old!

Causes:
1. Stress
2. Too much MSG from cup noodles

Effects:
SEE MY HAIR ON THE BATHROOM FLOOR

Solutions:
1. Sleep more???
2. Cut down on cut noodles and eat in the canteen

Ethel and Ling Ying forced me to accompany them to eat cup noodles after handbells!
Stupid LAHHHHh.
Obviously I got tempted and ate one (big) bowl also!
Which is the 3rd one this week... super OMG.
I've gotta cut down man.
After that I bought Crunch ice cream.
And the whole chocolatey thing dropped on the floor.
Waste my money sia.
Then I felt SO full. Getting fat soon. (yah I wish)

Skipped lunch today =( I didn't have a choice!
Mrs Loo made me do my chem practical during the 2nd break at 1.20pm.
No lunch! Missed SS and chem practical! =((
I rushed off to NDC (National Dental Centre) like mad, thank God I was still on time.
After tightening the braces, I couldn't eat. Duh.
So rushed back to school for bells, and was only a few minutes late.
Everything went just as planned. Except for the no lunch part.

I am proud to say that we the handbellers of PLMGS(Sec) have completed both our SYF pieces!
We have up to April to make minor changes and polish up some messy parts.

Dear Lord Jeus we want to commit PL handbells to You, thank You for seeing us through all our practices and performances all these years Lord. We thank You especially for the Gold with Honours award 2 years ago. Father we see your work through the many talents in PL's aesthetic CCAs, and we ask Lord that You'll give the Handbellers another Gold with Honours, to maintain the standard the previous batch has set for us, to bring glory to Your name and the school, to stand out from other competing schools like SCGS, MGS and RGS. Thank You for a wonderful but scary instructor like Mr Fong, we know that You sent him to coach both PL primary and secondary schools, for enabling him to fly to and from Hong Kong every week just to coach us. We pray that the bond between the handbellers will be stronger than ever, so when we play our pieces Lord we play them as one, not in secions but one complete ensemble. We pray also for enthusiasm, commitment and good health at least until the SYF day. Thank You Daddy for your constant showers of blessings upon PL's performing arts groups, especially for the Handbell Choir Lord. We pray all these in the name of Jesus, AMEN!

And we will get the Gold. With honours =D

Oh AND and and,
Ms Kok was soooooooo proud of our maths class (4c1), I think we broke our own record.
For the first time since last year, THE WHOLE CLASS PASSED THE CLASS TEST!
With 80% distinctions. She was like, smiling so much and kept praising us.
I got a B4, reaching my target soon =)
I could have gotten an A la, if not because my brain wasn't working, drew the entire graph wrongly, so for that graph question I only got 1 mark for the labelling of axis -_-
Anyway, praise the Lord! Wheeeeeee~
