Nothing Extraordinary

Bye bye!

2011-12-06T16:42:00.001+08:00

This is the end. HAHAHAHA. If you're thinking what I am thinking, it means I am going to stop blogging. Officially, until who knows when. It was fun when it lasted but blogging to me is losing its purpose. I don't find it interesting anymore; I am to lazy to blog; I don't think I have anything to blog; and it's extremely time-consuming. So adios amigos! I don't think anyone actually bothered to read this blank blotch of space anyway but if you did, thank you! Now go off to other blogs and enjoy reading them! The grass is always greener on the other side~ I shall shift my time and attention to other stuff :) Ta-ta~

Clean

2011-08-23T01:02:00.002+08:00

I need to start my life on a brand new sheet of paper. Or at least Year 3. All I have to save is that my results are disappointing me, even when I do work hard. I guess I might be using the wrong study method.

Nothing's working, and I am getting more and more depressed. It seems everyone is moving towards a clear goal and direction in their mind, while I am still standing at the crossroads, questioning and contemplating the right route to go.

Day by day, everyone is moving forward. It's just like everyone in class is like eaglets in a nest. We hatch together, we eat together, we spend time together. But when some develop the ability to stretch their wings to fly, they soar towards the clear blue sky, out into a world full of possibilities. But just like every story, someone gets left behind. The eaglet that will never learn how to fly, may grow desperate, and perhaps, after much trying, it will eventually learn how to, but will never have a comfortable journey. It will never be blessed with a steady flight, there will be wobbles and falls along the way.

I am that eaglet. I have not master the ability to fly yet perfectly; and I slowly watch as everyone else improves, while I remain stagnant. When will this end?

I promised myself I will never use my blog as a place to vent my anger on, but I would just like to say, I immensely loathe people who despise others or judge others based on results. It's the effort that counts, not the results, but it seems that the entire world seems more concerned about results than efforts. Why can't it be the other way round?

Time check 1.15am. This will probably be my last post till the end of EOYS. I shall let my blog to rot and decay. I don't think anybody drops by this little space to read about the boring life of a student. Seriously, my life is so boring that I bore myself. Oh and I deactivated my Facebook account. I shall really work hard and improve my grades. Otherwise, I don't think my dreams or aspirations for the future will ever be fulfilled. :(

WISH ME LUCK!

I have been staring at my laptop screen the entire day. Another unproductive weekend while everyone else is mugging for CT.

Now I'm starting to feel guilty.

And I feel like getting an MC.

Cos tmr, I'm actually going for a run. Yes, me who has been lazing like a pig every since last term is going for a run. And it's 3.6km. O.O

Reality Check in Progress.

I have not a slightest idea why I even sign up for it in the first place. All I know is that:

1. I will probably be the first runner coming in. Who am I kidding man.

2. I will most likely be crawling towards the finishing line after 2.4km.

3. Everyone who overtake me will probably turn around and:

And when I reach the finishing line, there will be people slacking like a boss:

If only wands exist. Then I could probably sneak one into the race and point it at every other runner and bellow:

Okay I shall go back to Macbeth Now. And probably sleep late again.

Goody.

THE CURSE

2011-08-06T12:39:00.003+08:00

I think with the previous post I just degraded myself. HAHAHAHAHAHA. Yep I was a chubby primary school student that was horribly blur too. I think I lost weight since then.

I have been sick for the past was sick for the past week. Been sniffing, coughing and wheezing non-stop. And I lost my voice. It's now 3 octaves lower than my usual pitch. Everyone went, 'OMG SIYUN WHAT HAPPEN TO YOUR VOICE. IT DOESN'T SUIT YOUR IMAGE.' Outside, I seem pretty horrified at it but secretly deep inside, I'm quite fascinated with it. Come on, when you talk and sound different, won't you find it amusing? Or maybe it's just me.

Oh I've been plagued by the 7th month curse. Like seriously. Last week I crashed my face against a solid wooden door and the skin of my nose came off. And it bled. So I went to the Scouts 55th Campfire with a plaster on my nose. Which many people laughed at cos they thought it was funny. 1 day later I tripped over my school bag and scraped my thigh against the table. Another plaster on. The next day I got sick with high fever, sore throat, blocked nose. And then I lost my voice. And on Thursday during chemistry practical the black solution in the test tube spurted out and drowned my uniform and face. It was HOT. I was exceptionally lucky it wasn't acid and burned my face and I managed to get the stain out of my uniform. IT'S ONLY THE FIRST WEEK OF THE 7TH MONTH. 3 MORE WEEKS TO GO. OH GOODY.

And next week is CT week so I better get on my butt and start studying. Till next time!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOYCE!

2011-08-06T12:02:00.009+08:00

Dearest Joyce,

HAPPY 15th BIRTHDAY!

It has been 7 years since we last seen each other and our friendship is still as strong as ever even though we are miles apart from each other.

I remember the FIRST TIME I knew I was hosting a buddy from Hong Kong, I was REALLY EXCITED. I am really thankful for the chance offered to me back then, otherwise I would never have known you!

This year also marks the 7th year of our friendship, and I believe in this 7 years, we both have changed. You have blossomed from a young girl to a pretty lady, and I have grown from an awkward and shy chubby girl to a confident student!

So on this special day, I wish that all your wishes will come true! And cheers to our friendship! I hope that we can meet in the near future, maybe in Hong Kong, or in Singapore, and catch up with each other! Till we meet again!

Missing you loads,

Your dearest Singaporean friend,

Siyun :)

Real Me

2011-07-27T22:10:00.003+08:00

On Saturday, I went down to Goodman Arts Centre today to watch my play being performed. Sabrina, Nicole and Tessa went with me to support my play! :)

I think I was really tired that day. And I could have run for the worst dressed scriptwriter. Every other script writer was dressed up nicely and I was in my sweaty pe shirt and skirt. And when my cast, Deanna, Jia Qi and Jamie approached me to ask our my play, I gave them short answers that don't really make sense. HAHAHA.

My play was performed first. Lovely Sabrina was helping me film it. It was really a thrilling experience. I was sitting cozily in my seat, reciting every line that was about to be said in my mind. It was a dream come true to see the words you create formulate a play right before your eyes. Although it was a little awkward watching my play, there was still a sense of satisfaction from it. And when I was caught up at that very moment, I felt like I was about to cry. It was so long when I finally found a direction in my life: I love writing, and I'm recognized for it :) And I felt proud and happy for a long time.

And now to announce the best news:

MY PLAY GOT 2 AWARDS IN THE JUNIOR HIGH CATEGORY:

BEST DIRECTIONAL PLAY

BEST OVERALL PLAY

When I heard the results being announced, I was shocked. Like really shocked. Even though a moment ago I was secretly chanting 'REAL ME REAL ME REAL ME'. It took like a good hour when I reached home I understood and started smiling like an idiot.

So to all those people I thanked in my previous post, THANK YOU! :)

And to Emma, it's time to let you go. Thanks for turning out the way I expected you to be. Love You!

2011-07-14T21:24:00.003+08:00

What I do when I reach home everyday.

Like A Boss

2011-07-10T11:11:00.004+08:00

Another weekend wasted. So yesterday I went for the Official 55th Year Anniversary Rehearsal (Can't be bothered to type out the whole thing). I signed up for school tour and I partnered up with Shanice. And we had to act as guests and students, meaning while we act as guests, another pair of students will practice touring us around the school and after that, the pairs will switch jobs. So while me and Shanice were guests, Amanda and Ruo Ling toured us around the school and boy, they were professional. They had everything memorized.

And when it was our turn, we had to tour a pair of year 4 boys who forced us to speak in Chinese. And they GL-ed us all the way. And since our Chinese was inadequate, the conversation went like:

At 正心圆:

"那是什么树?" (I learnt from Yap Qi it was a 水树)

"那是中国树."

"为什么你的学校有中国树?"

"因为我们学校很中国."

At the GSL Eco-Pond:

"为什么你们的池塘有这么多藻类(algae)"

" 那不是藻类, 那是蛋糕."

"蛋糕?! 那是什么口味啊?"

"Pandan. 你们要吃吗?"

"不要,不知道吃了会不会拉肚子"

At Auditorium:

"你们要喝公鸡尾巴吗(cocktail)?"

That's all I can remember. Initially we were fighting over to tour a pair of year 4 girls. But I think Genevieve and Krystal snatch them from us. And the year 4 girls suggested that we take that pair of year 4 boys cos they are nice and really funny. To think of it, touring them was really entertaining and we were laughing all the way. I am sure I will be able to cope with Chinese on the actual day. Yeah right. I will probably stutter my way through.

And then it was over and me and Shanice decided to stay in school for 1 hour until McValue Lunch was up. So since the guides and scouts were preparing for the exhibition for the event by tying various structures, we decided to sit at the swings and observe them. And we had 1 hour of entertainment. Then we went for lunch and went home together.

So when I reached home, I had a shower and slept for 2 hours. And I slacked the day away like a boss. I was enjoying myself till I chanced upon this website: Click Here

And I felt depressed. I was into my ' when reality strikes' moment again. When I go:

I’m just not good enough. I’m plain, I don’t have a unique personality, I'm boring, I'm not smart and there’s so many better people out there.

And I was feeling so sad and sorry for myself that I almost crawled into a corner and cried.

Who am I kidding. I just felt a little depressed. And then I caught myself. I went like: 'What the hell are you thinking Siyun? You're who you are :) '

But obviously when you see:

Natalie Portman finished high school with a 4.0 GPA. Attended Harvard University where she completed a Bachelor's degree in Psychology. Also engaged in graduate studies at Hebrew University. Speaks Hebrew, French and Japanese fluently.

And when you can't even speak Chinese properly, you can't help but feel a little sad. She's beautiful, smart, and everything possibly a girl could dream for. And you will go, "Dang, this girl has everything I don't have. She's beyond perfect." But just shrug the feeling off, cos it is impossible to be perfect. Every human has a flaw. And that is the exact reason why many are working hard: To become perfect. Sometimes, you may achieve that, but it won't last forever. You may still be working on being perfect till the day you pass on. But no matter what happens, just shake your head around and go:

YEAHHHHHHHHH PUT YOUR HANDS UP AND DANCE.

And if anyone critisies you, just go:

I love how Natalie Portman is crazy. There was a period of time when I couldn't differentiate her from Keira Knightley. You guys may think I weird for mixing them up but:

SEE WHAT I MEAN. THEY LOOK ALIKE.

Oh well, time to face up with the horror and start doing Math.

Oh goody.

July Blues

2011-07-04T16:02:00.008+08:00

July waltzes in. I often imagine that if July is a person, she will probably look like this:

Except she has green eyes. By the way, that's Famke Janssen in X-Men as Jean Gray.

Oh where was I? Right. I was talking about July waltzing in. And yes, my life is currently very, very, messy. I'm trying my very best to tidy it up. But first, I would like to share some news:

MY LIT PLAY GOT SELECTED!

When Joelle told me, I was like:

I was like "What the hell is she talking about?" So I had her explain the whole thing over again. And this time I understood. But it took like what 5 minutes for it to finally settle into me. And then I went:

You may be thinking, "What is there to be so happy about? Your play was just shortlisted right?"

Okay, so to let you fully understand what is the fuss about, I shall start from the very beginning. You see, there is this festival held in Singapore every year called the Lit Up Singapore. It celebrates literature in Singapore. Well, that is my definition, but for the more professional answer, visit http://www.litup.sg/ . Now back to the story. So there are competitions held in league with this festival and there is a competition on plays. Every year, Dunman High takes part in it ( the Lit Up Competition on Plays) and they will send the literature students' plays in for the competition. They will shortlist them first before making the final pick: The plays that pass the final round will be staged by Dunman High's very own English Drama Society (EDS).

Now for the actual new: MY PLAY MADE IT THROUGH THE FINAL SELECTION. THAT MEANS MY PLAY WILL BE STAGED BY EDS! ARHHHHHHHHHHH!

Now you understand. I'm feeling so happy. Nowadays life has been so drabby and suddenly such good news arrive. It's like a fairytale. I never did expect my play to be chosen as:

1. By the 3rd draft, I felt like tearing my play apart. Literally. I felt like ripping it into pieces and feeding it to my uncle's dog, who will probably enjoy it. Why then? I felt like the play was at the very limits. I couldn't improve it any further. And Mr Ken was like 'Perhaps it's better if you....' or 'It will be better if...'. So I got really fed up and wanted to quit.

2. And when the shortlisted list came out, I was pretty happy to see my play in the list, with 20 others. O.O And I read some of my classmates' plays and they were really fantastic. So I pretty much gave up. I just went, "Okay, Siyun, don't expect too much, cos there are so many other plays better than yours and it would really be a miracle if yours got chosen."

3. So I did my last and final draft and just submitted it in before I would regret and make any more changes as I was literally whining to myself, "I've got to change this, it's too nonsensical" or "I've got to change that, it's too cheesy".

So when one fine morning, after crawling into the classroom as I was too exhausted and upset over my grandma's passing, Joelle suddenly chirps, "Hey Siyun, I heard your play got selected! Congrats!" So I was really really surprised.

And what's more, Lousia, congratulated me. Like in the way people congratuate someone in movies and books. She shooked my hand and said, "Great play." And I gave everyone dumbfounded expressions. And weird people( hahaha no correction) random people added me on facebook.

So I would like to thank the following people:

My Parents

Actually more of my father. He thought I was writing too much and too dramatically. But he provided me with support, he found humour in my writing and teased me on it. Thanks Daddy :)

And for Mama to encourage me to write:) Love ya guys:)

Hui Yi

For being a great friend and my greatest critic. Giving me A LOT OF BRILLIANT SUGGESTIONS and encouraging me when I said my play was too horrendous to be continued. Thank You a thousand times! :):) (I know you're reading this. Wink wink)

Beatriz

Another great friend for giving me useful suggestions too! Thank You!

Michelle

Cheers for another great friend who encouraged my writing when I felt it was terrible. Your support was greatly appreciated! Thank You! :)

And to Mr Ken for providing many suggestions:)

And to the girls, performing my play, I wish you all the best! Just do your very best. I do hope you can bring out the message I'm trying to convey in my play. Feel free to approach me for help! :)

And to my dear dear dear play, Real Me, all the best! I don't hope for any prizes or anything, cos getting my play being staged has already been the greatest gift to me ever. Thank You!

TO ALL WHOM I THANKED, I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW:

SERIOUSLY. I MEAN IT :)

Remembering Grandma

2011-07-01T20:46:00.003+08:00

My grandma left us on 25 June 2011, 4.18pm. I guess that knowledge didn't settle in till I saw her. The moment she was lifted into the coffin, it was then when I finally acknowledge the fact. And I cried. It is difficult knowing someone you cherish leaving your side forever.

I think at first we weren't very close, as I was never close to my parental grandparents and relatives. But it was when we went Langkawi together in 2006 and Australia in 2007 when we got closer together. Especially the Australia trip when we shared rooms for 11 days.

We shared many things then. When I accidentally turned onto a television programme with some adult scenes, I remember my grandma laughing and saying : 'OI CANNOT WATCH THAT. THEY ARE NOT WATCHING CLOTHES. YOU MUST NEVER WATCH PROGRAMMES WITH PEOPLE NOT WEARING CLOTHES IN THEM.' I found it really amusing and I couldn't help laughing. And I remember you entertaining me by taking out your dentures and putting them back in again. Boy, that was a mistake. I would play with your dentures secretly when you were fast asleep. I also remember you fixing your umbrella even when it was spoilt, just because you couldn't bear to throw it away. It was really a lovely time we spent together then. I really understood you better and love you more. I am really glad to hear from my mama today that you really enjoyed the trips with us. It was indeed very saddening when she said you envied us so much when we went Taiwan and you couldn't go because of health problems. How I wished we could have another opportunity to go long trips together again.

So when I saw you in the coffin, I was speechless. You seemed to be frozen in sleep. And I was thinking, any moment now, you would awake and give me a bright smile. But you didn't.

I will always remember your beautiful smile. It hurts so much to realize that I will never see it again in person.

I will always remember your twinkling eyes, creasing up when you laughed how I stepped in dog poo in the wildlife park.

I will always remember you licking your lips in satisfaction when we ate delicious lavender ice cream together.

I will always remember you in the lavender fields in Australia, smiling into the camera with your lovely sunhat you cherished so much.

I will always cherish every memory of you, and the photos we took together in the lavender fields of Adelaide. As I look through the pictures we took smiling together at the camera hand in hand, I cried.

I hope you loved the white rose I threw in with your coffin. I hope you could feel the tears I cried when I did it, especially the disappointment when it rolled off into the mud. I hope you're not cold in there. I hope you will always remember us, and me. I will definitely grow up well. I will always visit you. So don't feel lonely okay?

Always remembering and loving you,

Siyun

Holidays~

2011-06-14T12:38:00.003+08:00

My life is such a bore. Okay maybe not, but I'm such a lazy pig that I cancelled all my engagements to just stay at home. Shanice thinks I'm crazy for doing so. She rather go out everyday then stay at home. But it's the opposite for me. I just want to sleep and eat like a pig at home.

My life last week was just slagging. Up till now, I haven't really done any homework. But my holidays are quite eventful:) I can't really remember, but I think last week Shanice dropped by my house for study session but we ended up talking. And last Friday, Chloe and me dropped by Hannah's house for IDMI. Her house is large and nice. Jealous much:( And after that I rushed off to Pasir Ris CC for badminton date with Amelia Beatriz and Zhi Xiang and I fully demonstrated how noob I am in badminton._. But seriously I didn't play like forever so I was embarrassing myself by flopping about like a chicken jumping for shots I couldn't reach and tripping over my own legs.

I got muscles after badminton. Like seriously hand muscles. And it was lovely meeting Amelia and Zhi Xiang again. Which is quite ironic since Zhi Xiang is my neighbour but I didn't see him in like 2 years._. Like Amelia retained much of her humour and Zhi Xiang, well grew taller. It seems the whole world is taller except for me stuck right at the bottom.

Wedding Bells~

2011-05-22T10:01:00.003+08:00

My crush is getting married:(

HAHAHAHAHHAHA. But it's true:(

First it was Prince William, now.....

KING OF BHUTAN IS GETTING MARRIED!

Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuk. Isn't he dashing? Okay he kinda looks like a chimpanzee in this photo.

So handsome!:)

He has all it takes to be a king. He's educated in Oxford, he's 31, and he has the looks:) Okay it makes me sound like a bimbo. But he's young, handsome and articulate.

And his finance is....

Jetsun Pema. DEAD DROP GORGEOUS.

They look good together:)

Long Live Your Majesties and may your love grow and blossom:) It's really touching to that the people of Bhutan have imposed a ban on their marriages throughout the country until their King announces the date of his marriage. It's like they are all truly connected as a family, as a country.

I need a life.

2011-05-16T22:21:00.009+08:00

Culinary Class from last years Electives:)

I realised my blog lack pictures. REAL PICTURES of humans. GIF pictures are starting to bore me. So I shall start spamming random photos I dug out everywhere. So since my birthday is next week, I've decided to post childhood photos:)

I think I'm one of those that look better when I was younger:( Many people has said that I looked different when I was younger- more like a complete different person. Yep yep quite true actually, cos I bet that if I go to school without my specs quite a few people won't recognize me cos I look quite different without my specs.

One day old...

One month old...

The next 3 photos including this one was when I was 2 years old...

At 5 years old...

At 13 years old...

On Vesak day I went back to the place I used to have my Buddhism lessons. No kidding, I actually studied Buddhism for 3 years. Until I quit when I was primary 6 to dedicate more time to my PSLE.

HAHAHAHA this was how I looked when I was in primary 3? Check out my red lipstick. It was for some Mid-Autumn Celebration at the place I studied Buddhism:) I hate lipstick. It's so sticky. And a real pain in the butt when it comes to eating or drinking water.

My favourite teacher:) I'm so ashamed I can't remember her name but that's because I always call her 师父! She's my senior too- she went to Dunman High too:) She is one of those people that you will always feel at peace with. She radiates a peaceful aura around her- no kidding and she's always smiling:) I feel so happy when I'm around her:) And , she's a very caring and kind person!:)

Okay I will continue the pictures on another day- it's a chore to upload them. HASTA LA VISTA:)

The Hospital

2011-05-07T10:42:00.003+08:00

You can shed tears that she is gone, or you can smile because she has lived.You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back,or you can open your eyes and see all she's left.Your heart can be empty because you can't see her,or you can be full of the love you shared.You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.You can remember her only that she is gone,or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back.Or you can do what she'd want:smile, open your eyes, love and go on.

I hate going to the hospital. That clean orderly place with not a speck of dust. It sounds insane, but when I go the the hospital, I feel like I'm in for hell.

Hospital means:

Danger-

Prison-

Suffering-

Despair-

And Learning to cherish your loved ones.

It maybe too late when you finally learn that. Going to the hospital opens your eyes. You see beds lined up neatly, with groaning patients, crying patients, patients in so much pain. And when you chance upon an empty bed, you find yourself thinking: Who was the patient last lying on this bed? Did he or she got defeated by death, or escaped unscathed? Were his or her loved ones there for her when she was lying on this bed? Did they shed tears? And in your curiosity, you begin to look for clues. Clues like the cards placed above the bed about a patient's particulars.

I found myself sitting in a corner silently yesterday, when an emergency family meeting was conducted to discuss about my grandmother's condition. I felt helpless. It was that time, when I felt I could have cherish her better. Seeing my grandmother, who was such an independant and hilarious woman lying helplessly on the bed, struggling with pain, twitching and moving in vain to escape from it, brought some tears. What was more saddening was that she could not recognise me. Just last Sunday, when I was away from camp and before her condition turned for worse, she said to my mother, 'What wrong have I done to deserve this?' Hearing my aunts break out in heartbreakening sobs broke all efforts for me to stife my feelings.

What was more ironic was that the man sitting next to me in the room was happy. Truely happy. He shared that his daughter was giving birth. I saw the happiness glisten in his eyes. How can when someone's suffering in pain, when a family is withering in despair and sadness, another family is ready to welcome a new life with open arms and share their happinees and joy?

That's what a hospital is. A gateway. A gateway to life, and a gateway to death. It is cheerful and perhaps welcoming, but to me, under that facade, it reeks off death.

Learn to cherish your loved ones. My greatest regret is not talking to her more. Not trying to make her smile more. I only wish to see her smile one last time. A smile of peace and true happinees. And perhaps a flicker of recognisation in her eyes, when she will know who I am. Now all I can do now, is to provide moral and emotional support, giving my family comfort, and wishing now, that she can be removed of all pain. Suffering. And live forevermore in peace and happiness.

I wanna be a billionaire so fricking bad

2011-05-05T23:54:00.004+08:00

Oh every time I close my eyes~ I see my name in shining lights ~

I love this song:) I've been annoying the hell out of people today by singing this line over and over again. But they usually sing along for the first couple of times before shooting me a glare. Seriously, I think I'm real good at annoying people:)

Got back my Bio test today and it wasn't very good. Just a pass. Well, at least I passed. I'm quite worried about my GPA. But I can't do anything now. It's all fixed already. The best thing I can do now is to just work harder for upcoming tests to make sure I don't screw my next term grades even before the term begins.

Today was Ms Sherene's last lesson:( I'm so going to miss her. She was a brilliant teacher and I feel kind of bad for not scoring well. She's really good at teaching and she's hilarious! She's like one of the rare few that can rebut Yohanes I think. I think I will be even more zombified when Mrs Chu comes back, as Mrs Chu kinda just assumes her students to know everything.

Hungry. Feel like eating French toast. Maybe I shall have that for breakfast tmr:) With some cheese and sugar on top with butter:) And a nice cup of chilled milk:) YUM YUM. Okay I shall go sleep and await for breakfast tmr:)

Tomorrow I have to go to school for speech day to help out with refreshments. After that was supposed to be Jie outing but I CAN'T GO:( WHICH MEANS I WON'T BE IN THE PICTURES. AND I DIDN'T GO FOR THE LAST ONE. NEVER MIND I SHALL ORGANISE ONE IN JUNE SO THAT I WON'T DIE OF BOREDOM DURING THE HOLIDAYS.

I ♥ RyanNigaHiga man. He's so entertaining and funny:) His videos really cheer me up:) So to end off, I shall go:

TEEHEE:)

Life's not about what's better

2011-05-04T22:49:00.003+08:00

I have been going like that a lot recently. Must be the lack of sleep.

My body clock smashed. My sleep routine is screwed. I used to sleep at 12 and wake up at 6. Then it became 9 and wake up at 4. Now it just depends on my mood. And after PLTC, my eating routine is screwed. I don't feel hungry when I'm supposed to feel hungry, and I find myself awaken in the middle of the night by my growling stomach. And then I'll shuffle towards the kitchen in my PJs and slippers like an old grandmother and rummage for some cookies and milk to eat.

Prepare to see me fail/screw all my tests with flying colours:(

It's not like I've the time to study. I had PLTC. And that took up A LOT OF TIME. A full post about PLTC will come soon once the pictures are all up:) But basically, I survived, and, it wasn't that bad as I thought it would be:)

Everything's getting pretty hard. Oh and by the way, the title of this pot comes from a song called 'Better than' which I think it's pretty meaningful:)

Anyway back to the topic.

Technically now, I should be:

Tearing my head out
Crying my eyes out
Or doing my homework

But none of them has been done cos I think the first 2 is a complete waste of time which will not help me in anything and the last is well, hard to start on when you're so tired, and when you have so little time.

Precisely why. And it's irritating how each week has at least 3 tests and there are no breaks in between at all. And it sucks for me cos I take double humanities and each humanities alternates itself. Eg: Wk 6 Lit Test, Wk 7 History Test Wk 8 Lit Test.:(

I want to study. I'm in the mood to study. It's just that nothing's going in and the lack of time and blah blah blah. I hardly go Facebook nowadays. Like once every 5 days? It used to be everyday. My media social life is screwed.

At least all the tests are over. FOR NOW. Then I have Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday to sleep and study for whatever tests left for the term. Good.:) Actually I should be relaxing since I just finished 2 major tests: History and Math which I believe I won't do well for. But instead I've to do my Bio Summative WS and Mindmap for Animal Nutrition and IDMI Survey Questions. I think I'll probably just finish the first 2 and leave the IDMI part till I discuss with Shermaine tmr.

I'm so busy nowadays. But I guess getting busy is better than having a boring life.

How tomorrow's morning will look like:

0725-0745: Birthday Bashes and Celebrations for Xi Ying and Rochelle( CAKE FOR BREAKFAST:)

0745-0800: Discussion for IDMI with Shermaine

0800-0815: Run with Beatriz( I bet she will still run faster than me. Bleh:( )

0815-0830: Tidy up stuff for PLTC (Hahaha i think we will end up gossiping)

0830-0845: Meeting with PLTC course leaders.

So technically I should be sleeping like now but I haven't done my homework. I guess I will probably sleep at 12 plus. Oh well.

I think I really need to solve my problem of drooling in the bus when I sleep. How?:(

I'm going to get back my Bio Test Paper tmr. Wish me luck. Miss Sherene has been giving me suspicious glances. I don't have a good feeling. I shall pray frantically tmr that I will at least get a decent grade, like a B. Or maybe just a pass:)

Mao Mao Cong

2011-04-10T10:37:00.004+08:00

I think this picture is very cute:) Mao Zedong is born in Shaoshan!:) I was giggling crazily when I read that. Shaoshan flew into a rage when Emily told her that. And got irritated when amused people( like me) keep repeating it to her. I mean, shouldn't you be honoured when the acknowledged leader of the greatest and most popular of modern revolutions is born in a place that owns the same name as you? I would probably write it on a big sign 'MAO ZEDONG'S BORN IN ME' and carry it with me for the rest of the week.

My grades aren't that screwed yet. YET. I just hope I can pull everything up into an A. So my target GPA seems pretty near:)

Life has been quite fun and dramatic recently, with little triumphs made everyday. My school life now is quite vibrant, and I suddenly find myself enjoying school more. I think everyone got a whole lot more outspoken this year. And since my class is double humanities, we are filled with loads of vocal people. And I find myself talking a whole lot more than the past 2 years, when I was too shy to voice out anything in class. Now, I seem to get more comfortable with it:)

And to all sexists out there: 'Sure God created man before woman. But then again, you always make a rough draft before creating the final masterpiece. ' I love this sentence:) Tomorrow's MONDAY.

Screwed.

2011-03-27T12:29:00.004+08:00

I feeling so pathetically miserable. Like I'm screwing up every single thing in my life. Not just grades or anything but some other stuff too.

I was working hard on my chinese, trying to pull my grades up that I ignored my LA. And in the end I screwed my LA up but improved my chinese. What the hell is wrong with me.

History test this week was horror. I felt like hollering 'SHOOT ME!' first thing right after the test.

Nothing seems to be going on the right track. Pshhhh. I don't deserve the right to say that I don't have time cos I don't think I'm really that deprived of it. I'm just jealous of people that is able to balance everything well.

I'm so sick and tired of all the other garbage that's happening to me. And I need a whole lot of food to make me feel better. So recently I have been going:

And I'll start drooling for any type of sugary food I can think of:

On the bright side, I think my parents have been quite understanding recently:) They seem to understand when I have a bad day, so they will just leave me alone. Which I feel is much better than parents pestering you to tell you what's wrong and trying to comfort you. I think that is just rubbing it all in. Seriously, what's the point of trying so hard when nothing works out after that?

HOLIDAYS!:)

2011-03-11T21:02:00.007+08:00

IT'S THE HOLIDAYSSSSSSSSSSSS!:)

I'm really going to have fulfilling holidays:) I really need a break from school because for this whole week I've been looking like that when I'm in school:

As a result of sleeping like 5 hours everyday from chionging assignments and stuff. This week has been really brilliant cos everything seems to be blowing in my wind. I got my results back for some tests and they weren't so bad:) It's like when I was rejoicing over the fact that I passed , they were like 'Oh I got an A+' and I will be like :

And they will be like:

And I will go, 'REALLY?'

I need a holiday. Someone give me some $$$$$$. I want to go somewhere nice. Like:

San Vito lo Capo,a charming famous seaside town on the north side of Sicily.

Sweet and Sour

2011-03-08T18:12:00.004+08:00

School has been impossibly hard and demanding. Most lessons are suffocating. I gasp for air quite frequently, but it seems like I'm taking in water in each breath. I just pray hard that the teacher doesn't call me.

I'm no longer the shameless student in primary school whereby I make sure I finish all my homework before bed, lay out my uniform for the next day and pack my bag each night. Instead I have evolved into a somewhat disorientated species. I still try to finish my homework and succeed 90% of the time when it comes to handing in my assignments on time. However I spend each day in frenzy, alternating between subject assignments, studying for tests, blah blah blah that I'm somewhat like a car driving in zig zag reckless manner now.

I've screwed up most tests I believe. Each time I receive my results, I find my stomach gripped in horror, my palms clammy, and me praying fervently to God, asking for a decent grade. First in English, then in Chinese, and finally, just to get my point through, in a messy splatter of other languages. It doesn't work all the time though. But so far it has.

I just finished my music theory exam last Saturday so another burden has been taken off my chest. It was terrifying. I was ushered into a meeting room in Suntec Convention Centre, it reminded me of the cabin of Captain Shakespeare in Stardust, though darker and devoid of warmth. My chair was delightful though:) It was a red and fluffy cushion chair, and I found myself plumping it before I sat down like an old grandma. It was I could do to stop myself from shrieking 'IT'S SO FLUFFY I'M GONNA DIE!' Once I sat down I started bouncing up and down my chair and grinning like an idiot. Before the examiner saw me and raised her eyebrow, like this:

And I reacted with a big sheepish smile, like this:

The exam was pretty okay I guess, it was a miracle that I've gotten the French terms correct:) Then after that I went shopping with my mother. My mother has recently taken on the impossible task of getting me out of pants. She's been bugging me to wear a skirt or worse a dress. All because of the wedding dinner I'm scheduled to go next week._. I do like skirts and dresses, it's just that I feel like a caged bird or maybe more like a fat wanton when I'm wearing them. Itchy, scratchy, fidgety.

And just last Sunday on 6 March I went to watch THE LION KING MUSCIAL! That will be on another post:)

COJ!

2011-02-26T13:38:00.004+08:00

My life has been engulfed in tests, projects, assignments and guides so today I shall take a breather and blog! Life has fastened to a bullet train apparently. Just like what Huiyi said a couple of days ago, 'GOSH, I feel so old looking at year ones and twos. Can you believe that we're year 3 now? Just 1 1/6 years more and we will be in senior high.' And my reply went something along the lines like, 'Yep, I felt like nothing changed, yet everything changed.' I have been sleeping very little these few days. Like 5 hours per day because of tests and COJ prep.

COJ wasn't as what I expected. Well, minus the screwed up mistakes I made. It was pretty awesome:) Oh just P2 was just awesome:) When I first heard our patrol manpower, the first thought that ran through was like 'GG.' Even up till yesterday, we were the smallest patrol with only a manpower of 6 while others had an average of 9.

So when the results were announced I was praying hard that we will get top 3. But I really didn't expect that we will get top 3 because I thought I screwed up! So when it was announced that we got 3rd, everyone in our patrol went:

And we were really really really really HAPPY because despite our lack of manpower, despite me screwing up, despite we getting demoalized after each station, despite our station masters commenting on how 'horrible' we were at each station, WE STILL GOT 3RD!

THANK YOU P2 Gravity! THANK YOU x1000 to Nicole, Shanice, Guo Jun, Kah Whye and Gerald! I seriously love P2!:) Thanks for you guys never giving up, and always so supportive of each other. And thanks for being fine about me screwing up! I will really really miss you guys:( I don't think they will ever put us in the same patrol again so all the best for PLTC:)

Gravity, gravity我们是最棒!我们一定pia到底,一定拿第一!

Believe me.

I know I said I won't be blogging for quite some time, but I feel there's a need to do so. This blogpost is dedicated to a friend. I doubt that friend will read this, but still, oh well.

Sometimes, in life, you feel everything crashing down on you. One moment just as you were reaching out to the warm welcoming sun, clouds begin to gather and raindrops start falling.

You feel like you are nothing. You feel like no one cares. You feel like dust that no one ever cares or take even a second glance at. Something that people even condemns to be worthless. You feel like nothing in the world seems right anymore. What is happy? What is angry? Or what is even sad? Why is it that I don't feel anything anymore?

Why is it that some have it easy, but some have it hard? Why does it has to be me, to have all these troubles? Is Heaven playing a joke on me? Others seem so happy, while I have to shiver in my anguish? Why does this have to happen on me?

Then you realise, why must you chose to shiver in anguish? It's just a matter of choice. You can be happy too. All you have to do is just to:

But then you start to question: 'Is it really fine to let it all go? To forget every setback? Every stab in your heart?' Well let me tell you, it's okay. You just have to take the first step. Of course, you can't just easily forget your failures, and dash blindly into the future. You have to look through your mistakes, find out what's wrong and start afresh. I believe that if others can do it, why not you? You may say it's all crap. Everyone's different. Everything will not change. But if you stubbornly hold on to that belief for life, the future will always look bleak to you. Colourless. So don't let your setbacks haunt you. Start afresh.

Don't compare with others. You may have all these setbacks now, but these will help you prepare for anything that may come plummeting along the way in the future. These may be preparing you for your success.

Just work hard. Nothing is not impossible without effort. Just work on your mistakes, am I'm sure you can do it. After all, I went through that phrase before. So you can do it too!

There's no point mauling over it anymore. Depression and fear may continue to creep on you as you begin you path to success, just face those beasts bravely, find their weaknesses, and I'm sure you will escape scatheless.

Believe me.

Claustrophobic

2011-02-05T12:17:00.005+08:00

I was in a ghastly mood yesterday. After I visited Marina Bay Sands for the Chinese New Year exhibitions. It was full of people milling around. And did I mention that I hate crowded places?

I dislike the feeling of being surrounded. Not all times. But especially yesterday since everyone was walking so slowly and advancing at the speed of 1cm per second. So irksome. Everyone in my family took it at that point of time to misunderstand me. Being misunderstood aggravated me further. Therefore I was at the very peak of my boiling point, like this:

I was desperately seeking something to exert my anger on. So I decided on a death glare. I scanned the crowd for a target. And my unfortunate prey was a little boy.

You may call me evil, but do you have any slightest idea what that little boy was doing? He was picking his nose. Yes, in the public. And the worse thing was after picking his nose, he inspects his nose dirt, sniffs at it before putting it into his mouth, swallowing it and giving a satisfied grin. Purely disgusting. The whole time I was observing him, I was cringing. And he spotted me staring at him and you know what? He gave me a triumphant smile. That went along the lines like, 'HEY YOU! I ATE MY NOSE DIRT. I BETCHA CAN'T DO THAT! NEH NEH NI POO POO!'

And I responded by doing this:

The boy widened his eyes in fright. He lifted his hands in the 'I surrender' pose and quickly scurried off.

I maintained my composure the whole time. But when the minute he left I laughed till everyone around me glared disapprovingly at me.

Now let that teach you a lesson, Nose picker. BLEH.

Anyway, this will probably be the last post till who knows when. Maybe a month later? Or maybe when something or someone bugs me to update? And since I don't think anyone reads this blog I think it will be forever:) So long!:)

Instinct.

2011-02-04T14:40:00.003+08:00

Stalking's in my blood. Literally. I am so amused by myself. :) Here's why:

On Tuesday, Z told me that N likes someone. And I was really shocked. Cos N is a shy but funny boy. And then Miss Obsession got hooked on. She started convincing me how juicy this piece of gossip was and started bugging me to get my grubby hands on it. Then Mr Common Sense came knocking in and persuaded me to not listen to Miss O. Miss O was furious and she started arguing with Mr CS, which resulted in a cat fight. So in the end I gave in to Miss O since I was a firm feminist. I went bugging Z the whole time to tell me what the heck was going on. She refused and I was really at the very edge of strangling someone. Then I changed war tactics. I asked Y about it. Just like me, Y also harbours a stalking personality. And after 30 minutes of serious discussion, we concluded that N likes P. I was delighted that I have finally gotten what I wanted and begin to cackle like a witch. And I proceeded to part 2 of the mission. I went to stalk P's facebook account, scrutinising any photograph of P and N together. For a bloody hour. Before I got really satisfied of my conclusion and went

So you are probably frightened of me now. But seriously, isn't stalking like everyone's second human nature? Or is it just us Singaporeans? Or worse, just me? I was watching TV just now when a car accident happened on the road directly opposite my house. Just like a full fledged Singaporean, I rushed to the window to stare. And I was joined by other true blood Singaporeans. So it isn't just me you see. But I guess I do have a stronger nature than everyone else. Take another scenario for example:

S(Me)'s surfing the net on her best buddy, Facebook.
D(Daddy) passes by. He sees S and he takes a stool and sits beside her before staring at the computer screen.
D rolls his eyes and says: Daughter, who's your new target?
S: I think she's the sister of my friend's classmate's friend.
D goes:

S: What?! Is it so shocking?

D: My daughter, you're beyond the hope for humanity.
D pats S's shoulder before leaving the room.

See what I mean? My instinct/ stalking hormones just kick in. Oh my mama. HORMONES. HAHA. I sound like a 50 year old grandma going through menopause. HAHAHA:) Anyway,

:)

2011-02-04T14:13:00.002+08:00

This is so korean. The first thing I did when I heard it I was furrowing my eyebrows furiously trying to figure out whether it was a chinese or korean song. And when I found out Derick Hoh was the singer my jaw dislocated itself. I remember the first time when I saw him a Superstar he was just like any scrawny teenager. And I went, 'It won't be long before he will give up his dreams.' But he didn't. He changed his appearance, his genre of music and improved his voice. And this song really struck my heart strings:) Jiayou Derrick!:)

Taking Chances

2011-01-31T21:09:00.005+08:00

I went CNY shopping last last Saturday after Chingay:) AND I BOUGHT CUTE T-SHIRTS AND SHOES:) I went to the shop called SHINE at Century Square. It was fantastic:) There's loads of pretty shoes there. And shoes are my 2nd mistress after books. Food is on top of course:) So I got my pretty shoes there:)

When I reached home the first thing I did was to flung all off my things onto the bed and fish out my shoe box. The next 5 minutes was spent admiring them. Then I put them on. And I suddenly had this brilliant burst of energy and begin twirling round and round the room. After I crumpled onto the floor after too much twirling, I started tippy-tap dancing. Then I started walking to and fro the room, stomping and laughing like a lunatic as I went just to exclaim how brilliantly made the shoes were. Yesh, I was behaving like a love sick puppy. Except that my relationship is based on a pair of ordinary shoes.

When I was younger, I used to dabble with my Auntie’s lipstick. I would apply it in generous amounts on my lips, making me look like a grotesque clown. And then I will run excitedly towards the shoe cupboard and slip on my auntie’s high heels. And off I went, stomping to and fro around the house. After a good hour of stomping around, I would switch on teletubbies on the TV and start stomping along with the music. And the whole procedure will continue till my patient loving grandma couldn’t take the laughing anymore and finally stop me. Then the nice grandfatherly Datuk from next door would pass by and look curiously at me before shuffling off, giggling as he went.

This will usually happen each time I visit my grandma’s house. And when I turned older, this procedure became a ritual between my cousins and me. It was especially hilarious when my younger boy cousin applied lipstick all over his face and even to his eyes as eyeshadow. My grandma was so shocked that she laughed and laughed till it hurt for her to laugh. Sometimes she even joins in the fun, tying up our hair into pretty braids and giving suggestions on how we walk.

Ah, the fond memories:) It really sucks to grow up. Sometimes I just wish I can remain like a child till I’m sick of it. I think as children then, our ritual was just a grown up dream, a strong desire to grow up and have the power to chose. But what we didn’t really know then were that as years go by, responsibilities start piling up, leaving us as stooped old men or women with wrinkles and droopy looking eyes. Growing up leaves us with shattered dreams, destroyed expectations. Sometimes I really wish to return to when life was carefree and simple. But there are those times when everything falls together perfectly. That's incredible. That's what takes away the suffering you go through. And it's those moments, no matter how depressingly few and far between, that make growing up worth it. So the best you can do now is to enjoy the process, and fill up everyday with joy and laughter:)

War against sleep

2011-01-20T19:22:00.002+08:00

I am so freaking tired. Everyday is like a war against sleep. And it's not like I sleep late. I sleep at 10 every night. Yes, 10. And I am still so tired. I shouldn't even be blogging now when I have loads of homework shrieking at me but oh well.

I hate learning cheng yus. Especially when I don't use them even after memorising them. I hate it that everyone in my class is a mugger and goes, 'OH AND FINISH THAT ______ DAYS AGO.' when I ask them when some homework is due. I'm really trying hard to keep up but it's just that everything's moving so fast.

I think I freaked out a girl yesterday. Or was it the day before yesterday? Cos I was walking to the canteen for lunch with Huiyi when Vaneh popped around out of nowhere( as usual) to say hi. So being an idiot I was I thought the group of girls walking beside us were her friends and spotted one of them to be my chingay group member(yesh I'm such a stalker). So I said, 'Hi you are from my Chingay Group right? Hello:)' And she gave me a look that was probably reserved for bothersome strangers. Then Vaneh ran off after saying hi which made me realised that I was standing next to someone that I completely have no connections with ( Not even a friend's friend). So I did the stupidist thing ever. I smiled sheepishly at her with a 'see you around' face and ran off. HOW IN THE WORLD AM I GOING TO FACE HER ON SATURDAY. I'M SUCH AN IDIOT.

Dreams

2011-01-15T10:44:00.003+08:00

I'm suddenly worrying whether I should have gone for the Chingay thingy today. But oh well. I would meet my group mates next week:)

Spent the last 3 hours coughing, wheezing, and sniffing. Horrible. The bad thing about being sick is that you have to drink lots of water and well, probably end up with a whole lot of pee to flush down the toilet. So I was running to and fro to the toilet from my table like a charging bull.

So now, the reason behind the quote up there. I just feel like talking about my dream. What's my dream? I want to be someone who has the ability of changing people's lives. Pretty ambitious, but I'm not going to give that up yet. But career wise, I want to be a journalist. You do know of those people who write about exotic places around the world right? That's who I want to be. I love visiting new places. I like making friends. And best of all, I like adventure. About the food though, I'm pretty picky, but I think I can overcome that:)

I still remember when I was younger, I had plenty of dreams. Quite a few were pretty silly. Like one? When I was 5 years old I wanted to become a president. What a joke. But a handful are possibly achievable. One of them is to set up a nursery for young kids like the one I spent 4 happy years in:) And another is to become a regular volunteer in organisations and the SPCA. But that has to wait until I'm 18 and not underage:(

Many dreams can be fulfilled, many can just be kept away and left behind while dust settles over. As we grow up, we may look back and laugh how silly some of our dreams were. Or worse, regret over dreams that we abandoned. Whatever it is, dreams are established as a goal for the future, so whatever others might say, however hard it might seem, follow your dream. Only people who really hang on really wins it all in the end.

And I'm determined to become one of those:)

Sick:(

2011-01-14T22:10:00.002+08:00

I am sick. Had a fever of 39.2 degrees from yesterday to today morning. I still have cough and my nose feels like glue. But other than that, I feel okay. But my temperature keeps changing. Like a while it's 37.1 a while it's 37.9 that kind of thing. So to play safe and make sure I fully recover by next week, I won't be going to Chingay Ushering Training Practice tmr:( Anyway if I go I'll probably spread my flu to everyone.

I'm probably the 6th person in my class to be down with fever now. The flu is spreading everywhere. But surprisingly this round of sickness wasn't that bad as the other rounds of sickness I had before. Usually I hardly get sick but when I do, it will be high fever, common flu symptoms and MCs for almost 3-5days from school. Complete with giddiness and temptation of vomiting.But this time it's better:) And I still manage to do my homework:)

I think having the fever improved my brain. Seriously. I seem to do things faster now.

"She said she wanted to be a raindrop. She doesn’t mind falling, as long as she’s not alone, and raindrops are never alone.”
- “When Five Fell” by Wesley Chan (Wong Fu Productions)

I watched this short 10 minute film today since Jamie recommended it to me and I was seeking inspiration for my play. It has a real deep meaning. I mean, I do understand it, but I didn't cry or anything. I don't like it a lot or anything. I just think it's pretty unique but not extraordinary. But I love the language though. Just simple, yet soothing:)

Sprinkles

2011-01-10T17:42:00.004+08:00

School's getting along just fine:) The first day of the second week and I tried to be more sociable today. I talked more, and got to know more people better:) The horrible news is that my homework is piling up. I just finished the first batch and the second batch just zooms in.

I spent the Math lesson going, 'HUH? I DON'T GET IT. WHY DOES X=-7? OHHHHHHHHHHHH I GET IT' and so on. And Chem was just chionging through the worksheet and attempting the rest of Math. And Lit and LA was spent drowning deeper and deeper into shock and oncoming misery with plenty of assignments which will soon be dumped on me. ARGH. I think if I don't manage my time well I will end up like Tinkerbell soon

._.

Beginnings

2011-01-07T21:21:00.002+08:00

The first week of school was well, not as bad as I thought it would be? I guess I expected much worse. I remember every one's names, but about talking to everyone, I think I did, except for a couple of people here and there. There a small pile of homework waiting in my school bag now.

Burning homework won't help. But doing it will. So I shall have a head start on it before it snowballs into an avalanche that's ready to swallow me.

I'm currently sitting next to Chloe. Chloe's pretty nice. I think I'm a little too quiet though. We talk, but we're still a little not used to it I guess. I just realised that when I first sat next to Suli, I felt exactly the same way. I thought I would probably remain as her 'seatmate' just in her mind forever. Just someone who shared her seat with her in Year 2. Just someone who's quiet and a bit deaf. Hahas. But look at we now!:) Just 5 months plus and we're good friends, laughing, joking and gossiping together!:) So I hope I'll not just remain as the quiet and a bit deaf girl in Chloe's mind:)

School's getting along pretty fine, I'm getting the hang of it for Chemistry, cos Ms Edison's just reteaching valencies and everything we learnt in Year 2. So I guess if I remember all the equations and pay attention in class, I hope I'll do fine. Biology, I'm a bit lost though I'm sitting in front but if I consistently study I should do okay. Math I really need to work hard. Chinese too. And for History and LA I haven't had a first lesson yet, but I'll probably need to put in loads of effort. LITERATURE is well, BOOMZ. The language, evrything is rich, I will probably need to start on The Crucible.

Empty

2011-01-06T17:52:00.002+08:00

Just when I thought everything was going well something just sets everything on fire. Suddenly, everything just seem a bit pointless. Mr Depression and Unreasonable is stalking me, holding on to me and reluctant to let go. I know I shouldn't be feeling this when there are people all around the world living it much worse than me, and that I'm pretty lucky and so on. But for now, just let me sink and drown in melancholy for 10 minutes. Just 10 minutes to get my feet back on the ground.

Weary

2011-01-05T16:00:00.004+08:00

I suddenly find myself missing Taz, especially his speech of grunts, growls and rasps. He's so cute! Oh and his dim-wittiness for always falling for tricks and traps!:)

I am as weary looking as him right now. I shall mug after this blog post. It is not hard to see that people in my new class are remarkably intelligent. And I sure don't want to lose out to them so I'm definitely going to put in my best this year. A small voice at the back of my brain(the Evil-Oh-Mighty of my spilt personality) lazily insists that no matter what I do, I may never match up to those intellectuals. But this loud but soothing voice booms out, overpowering that wee tiny voice, declaring, 'If others can do it, why can't you?'

So I shall follow that voice's advice. I shall do my best. Maybe even though my best may still not be good, at least I can console myself while I lick up my wounds later that I have already done my best. That I'm already cornered to the edge of the cliff. To the very last limit.

AH-CHOO!

2011-01-04T19:11:00.005+08:00

I got sunburned/suntanned today. I was sneezing so hard when a piece of my skin from my nose fell off. And it was a pretty hard piece.

Urgh. Why is my mixpod not working? I have a very nice song on. And it isn't working._.

Today was the first day of school. So tired after the whole orientation today. All I can say that it was quite enjoyable and thank you very much to the com members for planning this!:)

I have super nice teachers. At least for now. My form teacher's nice, my co-form teacher/ chinese teacher's nice, my LA teacher's nice. Not sure for the rest but so far everything's going pretty well. I do hope I get nice teachers for the rest of my subjects too.

The first thing that was on my mind when I saw the timetable was 'WOW.' The whole paper was adorned with boxes, words, and wretched timing. The earliest I can go home is on Thursday and that may not be if there are further enrichment on staying-backs. Well at least I don't have science everyday. But I do have days whereby both sciences and humanities plummet. And Day 6 has 2 hours of Math. I wonder how am I going to sit through all that without squirming or fidgeting badly.

It's a NEW YEAR!:)

2011-01-01T09:48:00.003+08:00

I stayed up till 2.50am last night just to watch the 2010 Golden Disk Awards Channel U was broadcasting. Then halfway through I realised I've watched some parts in Youtube before. So I practically wasted my time. Urgh.

I hate Korean fans. They are so mean and rude and aggressive. Are all Korean fans like that? Cos when other stars perform they start to scream or shout hurry up and hurry up. Which is basically giving no respect to others. They are certainly obsessive. Creepy.

Okay enough of them. I did this astrology free reading of future thing and it went along the lines like that:

Sun in Gemini: You came into this life equipped with great curiosity, a lively, versatile, inquisitive mind, and an urge for constant learning and new experiences. Your most basic inner drive is to communicate, to make connections and association (between people or ideas), and to develop your gift for language and expressing yourself through the spoken or written word. Thus, Gien Si Yun, being an intermediary or messenger, a translator, a teacher, a broadcaster, a correspondent, or in some field where you can mix and mingle and interact with a broad spectrum of people, suits you well.

Fascinated by life's seemingly endless variety and the multitude of options and choices available to you, you may flit from one person, job, hobby, or location to the next, restlessly seeking new experiences and stimuli. Even if you do not do this in your outward behavior, inwardly your mind is in constant motion, and you require a healthy dose of variation and mental or social stimulation in your life in order to approach anything resembling contentment. Skimming lightly over the surface of life, however, can lead to a shallowness of understanding and a fluttering away of your energies.

Did I mention I really believe in astrology? I know some may think it's ridiculous but I think it's real accurate, at least for me. I like the first paragraph. I really like my horoscope. The Western Zodiac one, which is Gemini. I think the Western horoscope is more effective, more accurate, and the analysis is in-depth. But sometimes I feel it's kind of sad that I am a Gemini. Cos I have a spilt personality disorder. I know it sounds like I am using it for an excuse but trust me, it's not. From young I have this spilt personality, the quiet, shy self and the flamboyant, fun and talkative self. If you know me well enough you will probably notice. I have tried to get rid of the quiet and shy self cos I think it's bad and I personally enjoy the flamboyant, fun and talkative self better. I have tried for 12 freaking hard years and finally I gave up. It wasn't until I read the in-depth analysis of Gemini(with a whole chunk of words clumped together) then it dawned to me that I couldn't do anything about it. But in this new year, I'll definitely try my best to get rid of the quiet, shy self.

Wish me luck!:)

Heavier.

2010-12-31T13:08:00.002+08:00

Argh I gained 3 kilos during the holidays. So much for losing weight being one of my aims for the holidays. But I'm not really bothered cos I'll probably lose it all during the course of next year:) But still, sigh.

New Year Resolutions

2010-12-31T12:18:00.005+08:00

A few days ago my mom asked me if I've cleared everything in my The 2010 Ultimate To-Do List of Misery. I managed to dig it out, after scattering my stuff hither and yon. In fact it was quite a miracle I found it. The wretched crumpled paper read something like this:

1. I will totally give up chocolates . 100%.

2. I will be a clean freak and keep my study table in tip top condition so that I don't have to create a hurricane of papers each time I try find something.

3. I will stop drooling in my sleep every morning in the car before I reach school

4. I will look where I am walking or going.

If you're wondering whether I've managed to do any of those, I would say: definitely not. Not even a single one of them. It's quite saddening that I didn't cross out anything. And I should be feeling more guilty since 1,2 and 4 has been on my list for the past 3 years?

Now here's my new The 2011 Ultimate To-Do List of Mocking Misery:

1. I will totally give up chocolates . 100%.
2. I will be a clean freak and keep my study table in tip top condition so that I don't have to create a hurricane of papers each time I try find something.
3. Stop waking up by the left side of the bed despite well knowing that there's a wardrobe there to knock me off.

4. Watch more movies!:)

5. Improve my grades

6. Make more friends:)

The loud ticking of the clock is mocking me. It reminds me effortlessly that I have exactly 12 months to finish this. I think there's a fair chance that I'll be able to strike off 3,4,5,6 . 1 and 2 will probably remain on my list till I decide to give up on them? HAHAs:)

Oh and to dearest Neh, Happy Birthday!:) I miss having retarded conversations with you on dhsmail. Please come online at the same time as me soon!:)

Happy New Year everyone!:)

Arashi

2010-12-29T14:49:00.002+08:00

Oh I promised Hui Yi this about a few weeks ago? HAHA. Look clearly!:)

Yep, Arashi in Taiwan:) I can't remember which Metro Station was it but I can remember it's the blue line. They had this advertistment on the TV at the Metro Station with them( Arashi) introducing Japan and saying 'Cheese!' along with cheesy and goofy smiles while doing the peace hand sign. Quite laughable:)

The holy power of Gifs:)

2010-12-29T11:59:00.003+08:00

I've discovered the holy power of GIFs. Finally. I remembered consulting Huang Xiao before after I couldn't work it out months ago and I've finally got it!:) I'm finally done with my blogskin after 3 annoying hours. After I finally typed in codes, changing colours and doing references on various blogskins, I'm finally done. Yeah, I am such a computer fool.

And the best thing is that I've finally finished my holiday homework!:) Take that Mummy!:) Yes, my mom has been nagging at me for the past 5 weeks to finish my homework and I've finally done it!:) And I was brilliant enough to finish my chinese book report in 6 hours:) I forced myself to sit through it and finish it. My butt ached and I had the pins and needles effect at every inch of my body after that but it was totally worth it for that feeling that everything's done and you're invincible:) So this shows that I can do anything once I set my mind onto it!:)

I was jumping around like a crazy baboon and repeatedly hollering that I've finished my homework when something dawned onto me. 'Shit, I will be having a Maths Common Test straight after the holidays.'

Not happy at all:(

Dog-tired.

2010-12-20T21:19:00.002+08:00

Gosh, I feel so tired. Spent the whole day in school working on the guides and scouts gateway structure. Have blisters all over my hands that it hurts crazily each time I wash my hands. Argh. I can't even straighten my fingers because of the pain. I've spent the last 3 hours since I've been home holding things like the L character from Death Note and nursing my fingers gingerly. I doubt I can even write now so heck about homework. I'm so tired and cranky. I think I'll be going to school full of plasters tmr:)

Insane.

2010-12-18T14:12:00.004+08:00

I think I'm going berserk. Do you know that sinking feeling right at the pit of your stomach when you're about to recieve your exam paper which you haven't got the slightest confidence to do well? That's what I'm feeling. With the sweating heavily and lack of breath symptoms all thrown in. Except the fact that I am not recieving an exam paper. Weird.

Feeling Pathetic

2010-12-06T22:20:00.005+08:00

I have a strange urge to change my blog skin again. But I'm aren't. I should be writing a post about my trip in Taiwan. But I'm aren't. I'm just being a lazy smelly bum.

I shall know begin on a violent scribbling or typing mission on writing whatever that comes onto my mind since I've no life.

All I want to do every day now is to just sink into my couch, and lose myself in a lovely story, preferably a fantasy one. However since my parents insist that I grow up and stop rattling off about faeries(yet I'm reading a splendid book about them now which is much much much better than Twilight) and scream BLOODY MURDER and land in a bloody mess each time I attempt to make a fantastic leap off the coffee table every time I imitate pirates, I have tried in vain to read my history textbook without falling asleep in 5 minutes. Well it isn't ancient history, thus it explains a lot about me falling asleep. I rather learn more about the Aztecs which are much much more interesting than Word War 1(minus the torture procedures).

I am so horribly bored that I was desperate enough to clean. For me, cleaning is much worse than crying. But somehow my school stuff are always quite tidy. Weird. Anyway, my room was so dreadful looking that any moment of delay further will breed a colony of disgusting insects( And the only insect I couldn't stand is cockroaches). At the same time my father was hollering that if I don't straighten my room this very minute he will crack my head open with a golf club. Not like he has one._.

So reluctantly I cleaned up. If your definition of clean up is stuffing things hither and yon into any drawer you see. I'm starting to get worried about the big pile of papers I stuffed into my drawers. Supposedly the next time I open it up dust mites will be greeting me? Okay, maybe I should go and straighten my room up again. In the mean time, my room looks delightful and cleaner than ever. I should be dusting my bookshelves soon. They're collecting dust.

Right now I'm stuck with my homework. I've to get my homework whether I like it or not because time is running out. So I buckled myself down to finish my Math, but twenty minutes later I was still staring out of the window admiring the brilliant weather outside before I gave up and came to blog.

I guess I shall have to continue my homework now. Off to day dreaming land.

Leaving for Taiwan in 42 hours!:)

2010-11-14T11:11:00.002+08:00

I'm extremely excited!:) In 42 hours I'll be in Taipei! I'll be there for 14 days! Lovely!:)

My mom's giving me NT1000 to spend there. It's like S$42.5:) Wah so much money:) Must spend it wisely and buy nice stuff!:)

In the mean time I'm packing and packing and packing. My room's pretty tidy now after I cleaned it up. My dad's sceptical about me being able to maintain it's current look since I'm a messy and disorganised creature by nature. Yeah, but I've decided that being organised is one of my main goals for 2011!

I'm quite bored other than packing. Time seems to crawl on. I've read and re-read all my novels and books and my mother's books. In fact I've read almost everything that is readable in the house except those musty and old books of my parents filled with scrawny little characters. *Shivers*

I'm trying real hard to improve my Chinese. I'm trying my best to read the Chinese newspaper without checking the dictionary 145215 times and resisting the urge to tear it into shreds in frustration. Haiz.

I'm eagerly waiting for my subject combination so that I can hurry and buy the books I need and read them before i drown myself in boredom. Feeling quite worried that I won't get my first choice. PLEASE LET ME GET MY FIRST CHOICE!:)

But I'll be in the aeroplane if Ms Ling gives me my subject combination in the afternoon or night so maybe I'll have to borrow my auntie's Internet connection at her Taipei apartment.

I've run out of things to write so yeah, you know, I'm just going to sign off.

Back from ATC.

2010-11-04T19:27:00.004+08:00

I feel like I have shut away from civilisation for 3 days. Seriously! ATC this year was an extremely fun but tiring experience, especially this year when I had to lead the year ones. I will never forget these few days!

Even though I did many pumpings a day and slept only 5 hours in total throughout the 3 days 2 nights camp cos I was too nervous to sleep, I guess I really enjoyed camp a lot. I had lots of new memories, and they will definitely remain in my spirit for life! At the same time, my stamina is better than ever!

I had many fun and new experiences:

Laughing with my patrol mates over idiotic things we did during the camp like there was no tomorrow
Imitating how the scouts we shared the campsite with sang campfire songs like screaming banshess and baboons with soar throats
Slipping on the mud for 1477952 times
Sweating enough to fill 14536541785 buckets
Scraping my knees, earning bruises
Joking and laughing with both seniors and juniors
Stomping at disgusting insects like a mad woman
Spamming insect repellent
Annoying patrol mates with idiotic comments and jokes

I shall just write about the more interesting parts:)

1. There was this station in OJ when the seniors ask us(my patrol) what should we do during a wild boar attack.

Siyun(thinking): Wild BALL attack? WHY THE HECK WILL A BIG BALL BE WILD AND CHASING US? OHOHOHHHHHH, IT'S WILD BOAR ATTACK! HAHAHAHA(GRINS IDIOTICALLY TO MYSELF) Anyway, roasted wild boar sure tastes yummy!:)

Amelia & Shu Wen to seniors: Which direction will the ball be coming?(SCEPTICAL EXPRESSIONS)

Seniors: That way. (points to the left)

Amelia: Then can just move to one side what!(With an expression like when a person is asked to explain how to use a toilet bowl.)

Shu Wen: YARH LORH.

Siyun(Realises the misunderstanding): HAHAHAHA. YOU KNOW WHAT GUYS? THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT B-O-A-R NOT B-A-L-L. WHAT WERE YOU GUYS THINKING?

The entire patrol laughed.

2. I admired Tessa's butt throughout the forfeit she did during company games. Do not mistaken me for a pervert, but she's real good at butt shaking!:)

3. I fell asleep while talking to Huiyi on the bus. IT WASN'T MY FAULT! I JUST FELT TOO TIRED AS I ONLY SLEPT 1 HOUR THE NIGHT BEFORE. I guess Huiyi was quite upset too. She was like, 'EHHHH SIYUN ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME A NOT!!'

4. Took forever to eat my dinner. I struggled even to lift my spoon up to but it in my mouth. I was so tired that I couldn't even open my eyes fully. They were like slits. Everything I saw(which includes my dinner) turned into snakelike drawings and I couldn't even put the spoon into my mouth as I kept missing my mouth( as in miss the aim). In the end I just gave up after 1 hour and just brushed my teeth and went to sleep.

5. Woke up when my mother shook me. At 9 am seriously! I need more sleep! Slept like a dead pig throughout the night for 10 hours straight! Was so tired that I went back to sleep twice the whole day for 4 hours. NEED MORE SLEEP.

6. Was so hungry as I ate very little for the whole day.

Breakfast: 2 slices of bread with one gulp of water

Lunch: Half a plate of noodles and Yakult and one gulp of water

So I served myself with extra LARGE helping of my mom's fried rice! But I was still so tired that I spilled rice all over the table( As I missed the my mouth again)

I would never forget this year's ATC and it was definitely a memorable experience:) I love camps!:)

Accident-Prone

2010-10-30T17:10:00.004+08:00

I fell off my chair, did an Indiana Jones type somersault, scratched my cheek against a plastic chair, and got a bruise after smacking right against the wall in just 3 mins flat.
Pretty impressive huh?

I think I sprained my back. I bended it 270 degrees while falling off the chair. I can't manage any moment now except to crawl my way gingerly towards the toilet like a robot.

Sometimes I wonder why am I so clumsy. I couldn't get away with each day with at least a tiny accident like just tripping over my own legs and breaking out into a fall. Not that my legs are long though.

But sometimes being in accidents can be fun. I didn't know I could bend my back 270 degrees that yoga masters take months to learn. But I doubt I can do it again.

Being accident-prone, I have since developed a list of little accidents I want to experience. And the first is to break my leg, which have been established recently after I found out how good I was with crutches:) People will probably call me insane, but since I probably would live for only I say, 80 years on this planet, why not experience it while I can?

2010-09-08T21:34:00.004+08:00

I hereby declare I'm officially on hiatus till the end of EOY.

So long comarades, and let us charge towards the EOYS!:(

Army is deinitely no joke

2010-08-28T10:28:00.002+08:00

Yesterday was a hectic day. But overall I felt insanely high till oj started.

1. I managed to chiong finish my shuo ming wen. If GPS continues to spam us with homework, I will start to dislike chinese. On the other hand, I find it hard to cos I enjoy his lessons immensely!:)

2. I remembered and didn't make any mistakes for muo xie despite only reading it through 3 times and practicing writing it out 2 times! Remarkable improvement!

3. I got locked out of the classroom for science. I didn't feel anything but guilty that I didn't make an effort to reach the class earlier. Luckily Mr Tan was going through the worksheet that I had completed so it was still pretty okay:) I got A+ for science forces pop quiz even though I didn't really study! I may consider taking physics instead of biology next year:)

4. Geography was some what manageable. I just read through the slides and worksheets. So during the test I struggled to summon those stuff that I studied. And just applied them to the test. But I'm not very sure whether it works though. Overall just 4 words, 'I AM SO SCREWED.'

5. Now for guides. Today was photo taking and obstacle journey(oj). During photo taking I got pretty excited and displayed my AWESOME spastic face when my year 4 seniors said hello to me:) Missed them loads. Oj was tiring, and as a senior, I felt like I was a failure towards my juniors and I needed a lot more improvement to prove myself to be a better senior.

About my title for this post, it's pretty much of a reflection of oj. When I was younger, I often thought about joining the army cos it sounded fun. But after joining guides, I definitely will think twice about that. It was exhausting carrying a about 10kg army haversack with me and running with it from the senior high block all the way to the junior high block and running up 6 stories with it. I nearly crumbled. Boy, how well I slept last night.

It's time to start anew:)

2010-08-26T18:38:00.002+08:00

Haha I like my new blogskin!:) It's so pretty:)

IDENTITY CRISIS

2010-08-24T20:36:00.002+08:00

I'm going to change my blog skin again. The current one is too girly and pinkish for my personality.

I am super duper exhausted. Have been having persistent heat rash for the past few days and it's so irritating, resulting in animal-like scratches on my face, which well, isn't very nice looking.

I shall start planning for EOYS! I'm definitely not going to end up like last year, leaving everything to the last minute so I must jiayou!:)

I'm still finding surprising that others still have time to play and relax during this few days so I guess I haven't been managing my time well at all. I got real worried these few days especially today about my eye sight. There was this blurry glob at my right eye and I couldn't see at all for 30 minutes from my right eye. So it was pretty comical when I had to view everything from my left eye, closing the right eye at the same time. I shall spend lesser time on the computer and more time out in the sun!:)

Well that's all. I shall change my blogskin perhaps during the weekends or next week when I'm more free:)

Off to mug for tests,

Siyun

Why preschool kids are horny

2010-08-18T18:46:00.004+08:00

I don't like my new blog skin. I found myself squinting at it cos I found it too bright. But every time when I found the perfect blog skin to describe my personality, there will be technical glitches here and there.

I recently got into the blogging mood again, I don't know why. So I shall blog why preschool kids are horny.

Yes, Siyun as usual was bus-ing home after another school day that burst 1234569 of her blood vessels. She was recuperating quietly in the bus when a pair of preschool kids and their grandmas boarded the bus. So the preschool kids got very very bored and decided to play this game whereby they have to describe things using the word BIG. At first Siyun didn't think much about it but the first word that popped out of her mind was LAME cos the children were describing things like buildings, cars, dogs etc.

Then the girl popped the big statement: 'FAT FAT GRANDMA WITH BIG BIG NEH-NEH!'

First reaction: Laughed like a hyena.
Second reaction: Then stopped. And stared at the kid. Started thinking, 'GOOD GRIEF. KIDS NOWADAYS ARE ._.'
Third reaction: Turned and stared at her grandma.Realised that the neh neh of the grandma was really HUGE.
Fourth reaction: 'I wonder how she maintains it despite overcoming menopause??? Shouldn't it shrink?'

The adults of the bus have absolutely no sense of humour. All of them wore earphones and clearly didn't hear what the little girl said even though she proclaimed that statement in a decibel that could rival a vuvuzela. They thought I was mad and stared at me like I was a circus attraction o.O

The grandma was SO SO SO embarrassed. She shushed the girl up. However the girl continued giggling and SWIPED HER HAND PLAYFUL ACROSS THE NEH NEH. I STARTED TO LAUGH MORE, EARNING MORE STARES.

The grandma was wearing tights and a super tight t-shirt. I'm not being mean but I seriously think that her buttock is stuffed. It resembled the butts of those from the Victorian century where big butts were a fashion statement.

And thus, I come to the conclusion that preschool kids are horny.

Tuesdays are tired days...

2010-08-17T21:39:00.003+08:00

I hate Tuesdays.

That's when math pop quizzes has a 99.9% of popping. Like today.

And then it's a long long day because of Malay.

Then after Malay there's theory, which means after theory I still have to bus home in crowded buses filled with adults that stare at me like I'm a liu lang gui and smell stinky armpits of teenagers when they lift their arms for the hand rest. Plus, the bus takes FOREVER to come which means I spend most of the time stranded at a creepy and dark bus stop alone. And I'll reach home at like 8+++ o.o

And then since Wednesdays has a 99.9% of having math pop quizzes again and common tests, I have to mug till very very late with a whole load of homework Tuesdays bring, resulting me smashing my head against the glass window in the car next morning, with puzzled drivers snickering at my very ugly and unglamourous sleep posture.

I'm very very tired of this routine and I'm tired of being so tired on Tuesdays. Tuesdays are horrible. And I still don't get it why I'm even blogging now when I should be mugging history.

OH MY GOSH!:)

2010-08-04T20:08:00.002+08:00

I passed my math test!:):) The first thing i did when i got home was to do a silly dance:) I practically suck at math and am horrible in it. I must continue to work harder:)

Life has been passing by so fast and soon it will be EOYs!:( I'm pretty determined not to chiong Science last minute last year! If I actually bothered to study for EOYs last year, I probably would have gotten a higher GPA.

After that it will be ATC( I horribly frightened by night games) and then it will be OFF TO TAIWAN FOR 14 DAYS:) YIPEE!!!!:):):):)

I know a lot of people have already been to Taiwan but I'm looking forward to this trip a lot!:) I'll be visiting Taipei and the country side. At the same time I'll be meeting my mom's best friend currently living at Taipei which I haven't seen since I was in Primary 1?? That makes almost 8 years:) She's so pretty and nice:) It's just too sad that she hasn't found her 'right guy'. I hope there will be loads of shopping and scenery:):)

So I'm definitely going to start mugging hard from now so that I can go to Taiwan with high spirits and really enjoy myself:):)

On Public Transport

2010-07-27T23:24:00.002+08:00

Dad has this operation on his hand and he can't drive for nearly 2 weeks. That's when I really appreciate getting a car ride every morning. Now I have to take public transport to school every morning and being a koala bear that loves to sleep, getting up earlier by one hour is a TORTURE.

That explains yesterday. I was taking 12 back home. Since I was sitting at the end of the sideways seat, I had an arm rest. But this 50 plus year old guy just had to put his LV bag right there(I have no idea why). And when I tried to rest my arm on the rest to support my head as I sleep, there was simply no space that my arm kept slipping off. That 50 plus guy also kept giving me cold glares that I perceived as : 'TOUCH-MY-LV-BAG-WITH-YOUR-HANDS-AND-YOU-WILL-DIE' glares.

And then I started dozing off. And smacked my head into the shoulder of a Temasak girl sitting next to me. I jolted awake and apologise. And the Anglican guy sitting opposite me twitched his mouth but it was so obvious that he was trying not to laugh.

So I spent the rest of the journey just sitting there, smelling stinky butts when people thrust their bottom towards me(of course accidentally) during bus turns, foul wet armpits of sweaty boisterous secondary boys and the constant chattering of gossipers(girls, duh).

It was so so irritating and boring. Daddy, get well soon:)

Things change

2010-07-27T23:19:00.002+08:00

Everything changes. Be it relationships, time, looks, thinking. Well a lot of things have changed for the past few days though.

Hi Yi Xuan, I doubt you read my blog, but I really hope that you'll have a nice time in SOTA. You have real talent in Arts, so enjoy them! It has been great knowing you and I hope we can remain in touch:)

I feel like I've been drived on complete with tire marks on my face

2010-07-19T21:24:00.002+08:00

Hi. It has been a long long time since I posted and I'm happy to say that horrible SIP is finally completed. 6 months of tearing out my hair. Shall use my father's BA WANG. LOL, it smells like soil though.

Even though one project is finally completed, I still have loads of projects to complete, in fact one for every subject. Haiz.

Tests are coming soon and i'm worried about flunking, and I can't help but be jealous of those that need not put in any hard work to score:(

Tmr is going to be SUCKY DAY. A list of boring subjects, an irritating chinese test and I still have MSP and theory lesson after school. Which means I'll probably reach home at like 8??

What's more is that Facebook has been bugging me. I've finally finished posting all the photos I currently have about school after much pestering by peers. I have like 100 plus friends only 5 days?? The website http://www. facebook.com keeps sending the message: 'Yes baby, CLICK ME CLICK ME:):):):)'

Tired, irritated, and cross.

How to Kill A Frog

2010-07-09T22:23:00.005+08:00

Yes, I killed a frog. In fact, 43 frogs from the past 2 weeks. I am aware, that by doing this I am considered cruel, savage, atrocious, barbaric, brutish, heartless, monstrous, primitive, ruthless, uncouth, vicious, wicked etc but believe me, no one in the world felt as traumatised as I felt when it happened.

How did it all begin? With our Science Project, or in short, SIP. Well, science, has the amazing influence to exasperate 90% of all students in decades. It is something that requires brilliant memory and knowledge of certain words you can never be able to pronounce or understand no matter how many times you try.

At first we decided do something about increasing the speed of decomposition, however, we realised that it was a very vague and complicated topic to complete. So we turned to proving Daphnia was a good indicator of polluted water. Daphnia is broadly known as water fleas. They look revolting:

However, it turned out they were too small for us even to count them. They were practically clouds of dust when we set out to purchase them. The last resort finally arrived: frogs.

Session One:

I volunteered myself to do the experiment. The whole experiment was well, very traumatising. We put the frogs in polluted water and frogs, being extremely sensitive creatures to water, would be able to determine our results. I won't say anything much, except that by the first hour, the first frog died, Then another, and another and another until all left was the ten extra frogs and a few surviving ones. I packed the dead ones into a box and disposed of their bodies in the field next to my house, not before saying a long prayer. The live ones was given to Huiyi, and as I have heard, 2 had died.

The frogs and I in happier times....

Apparently, the frogs died too fast for us to even tabulate the results. It was then when I learnt that too much water can harm a frog: I poured 600ml of water into the container, and the frogs have to keep swimming regardless how exhausted they were. So though I didn't really want to do the experiment again, we still have to do another round to tabulate our results successfully.

Session Two:

The second round took place in Karman's house. This time, there were five people to help out including me, Karman,, Siyu, Karman's sister Jia Pei and Karman's mother. The whole experiment was a repeating nightmare. 3 frogs escaped 3 separate times while Karman's mother tried to put them in the containers which resulted in a frenzy, when Karman, Siyu and Jia Pei screaming in a decibel that could rival the best vuvuzela money can buy. I was well, used to it and stared on patiently while Karman's mother scooped the frightened frogs up and delivered them swiftly into the containers.

Then the screaming resumed when the frogs started dying. They all screamed like banshees while I shook the containers to check the status of the frogs. One by one, the frogs started to float on their backs- the sign of their death. It was so terrifying that it triggered Jia Pei into tears.

Apparently the frogs were so adorable that she was named them Qiqi and other names. She was so upset by their deaths that she started rocking their containers in the baby-style, crying her lungs out and using mountains of tissue to dry her tears.

All that were left was 3 frogs. One has died just today and the other two was released into the wild, a ditch in Pasir Ris with a good environment for them to survive.

The dead ones were buried by me under the trees at the hill next to where Anglican High rests. I covered them with leaves, branches and rubbish while Karman and Siyu looked on from a distance as they were too afraid to venture near where I buried them due to the abundance of grasshoppers.

I am still traumatised by the deaths, and I shall never look at another frog without remembering the empty eyes of those I killed, shouting, 'FROG MURDERER! YOU FROG MURDERER!' It was even more disturbing when a few people irritated me by saying frog porridge is nice.

I, Siyun, HAS NEVER EATEN A FROG IN MY WHOLE 14 YEARS ON EARTH AND NEVER WILL. I SOLEMNLY PROMISE THAT I WILL SAVE 43 LIVES TO MAKE UP THOSE THAT I HAVE WASTED. I AM VERY VERY VERY SORRY AND I REALLY HOPE YOU FROGS WILL REST IN PEACE.

Kayaking:)

2010-07-04T16:08:00.005+08:00

Went for Kayaking One star course as my NYAA:) GOT MY HARD-EARNED CERTIFICATE:)

1. At 14 years of age, 152cm, I was the youngest and smallest size in the Center. The people in my class were 20 years and above. I was one out of 2 females.

2. The dragon boat people are scary. Be it girls or guys, all of them could do more than 20 pull ups at the 2m high pull up station non-stop without any help. They were very tanned and they have nice muscles( 6-8 packs woah):):) Even the girls have muscles too. They were all good looking:)

So I say, if you ever wonder where the good looking people of Singapore went too, go to any random water sports centre and you will find them there:)

3. Kayaking requires tremendous energy and being small sized, I tire easily and had problems capsizing as I wasn't heavy enough:(

4.The people from my class are nice:) Most of them tried their best to help me when I didn't have enough strength to empty my kayak or lift my kayak up.

5. Kallang basin is dirty. I had to swim in mountains of rubbish and oil and past a few dead fish and rats( Yes, RATS), as we were required to take the swim test. I'm proud to say I was one of the more daring ones:) The adults in my class was cringing in the water. It was not surprise after you see some people actually blowing their nose in the water, forcing their mucus out in order to breathe more easily. Gross.

6. I got a weird tan, a sun burnt nose and aching muscles. My nose is still peeling even now.

7. 6 more hours to finish! 6 more fun hours of kayaking:)

Oh my gosh!!!!

Brazil and Argentina is out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:(

Math and Science Carnival:)

2010-07-01T18:39:00.005+08:00

Showing off our chopes:) Krystal, Me, Xiaoqi and Nicole:)

Next post, Math and Science Carnival:) So I was the DJ for the carnival with Xiao Qi which was purely coincidence:) Yay:)

So went to school real early cos I was afraid that I would be late and I saw a lot of primary 4 students and they were real awesome:)

There was this little girl that declared proudly to her friends that 正心园 was a pond???? And I stared at her questioningly. She caught my gaze and squinted harder at 正心园 before whispering, 'Oh. It is a grass patch. Oops.' LOL

Went to the hall and met Mr Tan who said that we may not have much to do cos the DJs the day before didn't really do a good job so the organisers decided to take over instead. So we sort of spent the first session roaming around:)

There was this pretty Nanyang Girl that asked us whether we wanted to try out her station. We kinda started talking with me proudly declaring,'I HATE MATH AND I WILL NEVER DO WELL IN IT!' We all laughed:)

So after that we started doing our job as DJs. Though I did the announcements cos Xiaoqi insisted she couldn't. 2F boys helped too. Actually, more like they took over our jobs and started acting like real DJs.

They started singing in a falsetto voice when the song Beat It by Michael Jackson came on and squawked like a chicken during the AO parts. It was a totally nightmare that one of the teachers banned them from the mike. After much quarreling, we wrestled the mike back from them( Actually more like they returned the mike after Xiaoqi threw a fit).

One of the most fun parts of the carnival was getting the little children to line up in straight lines when the gift exchange booth got busy. I spent loads of time explaining to them how the gifts worked.

One cute little boy was sensible enough to ask,' Will this be able to close after I pull out the cover?', referring to the BARREL O' SLIME he collected.

Then during the breaks we fooled around with Nicole and Krystal. We dropped by all the booths and I could say that among all the schools that were there, ACIS and Nanyang Girls were the friendliest. There was this nice ACIS boy that didn't really mind us when we demanded him for chopes:)

One of the most fun things of being A DJ is that we manned the Lost and Found Booth. There was this weird incident that happened.

Me: Wonder whose bag is this. Whoever that loses a whole bag like this is sure an idiot. (Refers to a Dexter bag)

( Two ACIS boys march up the stage just the very next moment)

ACIS BOY 1: Hey, have you seen a.....Hey that's my bag:) (Refers to the bag I just prodded) Inside there is a notebook, my jockey stuff, or maybe it's not inside.( He continues to rattle on and examine his belongings)

We look sceptically back at him. Such a weird boy.

ACIS BOY 1: What? You don't believe me? Do you want to see my EZ-LINK card??( Starts to pull out his wallet)

ACIS BOY 2: Come on, you can just take your stuff and go..( Pulls friend's arm, probably trying to save him from embarrassment)

Xiaoqi: Yes I want see you EZ-LINK card:)

Rest of us: YES, YES, WE TOO:):)

ACIS BOY 1: OH NO, CANNOT CANNOT.(Blushes, probably remembering something on his EZ-LINK card that he shouldn't show)

(ACIS BOYs leave)

They are sure weird people._.

Oh, there was this Caucasian ACIS boy there too. He WAS TALLL!!!!!! I think about 3 heads taller then me that when I talk to him I have to incline my head up 180 degress?! Anyway he complained to us that the area where their booths occupied lacked ventilation.

He spoke in a Singaporean accent. Shocking.

When we told him we couldn't do anything about it,

He grinned and said,' Never mind larh.'

WOW. REALLY VERY SINGAPOREAN.

Well that's all:)

Sentosa IR:)

2010-06-30T20:44:00.001+08:00

Yo people!:) After 4 weeks of holidays, I'm back:) First I'll blog about the Sentosa IR. Well, it started out with shopping with Mom at Vivo. Man, something embarrassing happened that I really felt like digging a hole and burying my head inside like an ostrich.

Okay, so what happened? So I followed Mom to Marks and Spencers to shop for office wear. Then A REAL NICE SONG came along. I can't exactly remember the lyrics or the title but it was a song of my childhood. Real old though. So I kinda start moving to the beat of the song. Then when I thought no one was looking ( the store was quite deserted) I started a goofy dance that ended with me wiggling my arms like a chicken. Yes, I was dancing like an idiot.

Then I was aware of someone staring at me. I turned around and I saw a tall Caucasian lady with short hair. My jaw dropped. And she walked away, giggling along. My face turned crimson.

I FELT SO EMBARRASSED!!!!!! WHY DID I EVEN DO THAT?! I'M ALREADY A TEENAGER AND I STILL DID THAT!!!!! HAIZ!

Okay, so after that we went to Sentosa for a walk( I'm an Islander, so it's real convenient)I didn't really went in the theme park. I roamed outside instead, cos the tickets of the theme park were sold out by the time we reached there. So here's pictures:)

The awesome car for the 1st price at the Casino.

Popcorn haven:)

2010-06-04T16:04:00.004+08:00

HEY PEOPLE:) I CHANGED MY MIXPOD. BUT THAT DOESN'T CHANGE MY FEELINGS FOR FT ISLAND!!!:) LOL.

YOU ARE HEAVEN BY SS501 IS is currently by favorite song for the week.

Cos it's cheerful:) I'm still pretty amazed that they have so high and sweet voices.

I couldn't help laughing when I watched the MV.

If you fast forward to 3.4cm from the start of the playing bar, you can see the members of SS501 shaking their butts vigorously.

Plain hilarious!!!:)

FYI MICHELLE, CNBLUE'S I'M A LONER IS ON MY MIXPOD:) BUT AS THIRD:)

OH MY LOVE:)

2010-06-04T15:28:00.005+08:00

DEAREST SHIN YI,

Money's tight,
Times are hard,
Here's you friggin birthday card:)

Actually it's not even a birthday card. Lol. BUT REST ASSURED I'LL TREAT YOU TO THE MOVIES FOR YOUR BIRTHDAY LIKE YOU'LL BE DOING FOR ME. OOPS. Won't that end up with you and me paying for our own 'birthday present' ? -.-

ANYWAY,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY OLD LADY! IT'S FINALLY THE TIME WHEN THE PHRASE 'You are only as old as you act.' PROVES ITSELF RIGHT:)

Lol. You're seriously VERY MATURE. Anyway, it has been a great time knowing you!:) You've a infectious laughter. Sometimes, I really wonder what you're laughing at cos your sense of humor is real WEIRD. Maybe it's because of your personality:) I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST IN WHATEVER YOU DO AND GIVE YOU AN ADVICE, 'Dwell not on the past, it doesn't come back, but focus on the future, it embraces you' So cool rite!:) I thought of it:) Hehe:)

JUST PUT IN YOUR BEST AND EFFORT AND YOU CAN DO ANYTHING!:)

What we young folks can do, you can do too!!!!! Keep up with the acting cute!!! But you seriously don't have to be so desperate to show that you're young at heart. WE KNOW THAT!:)

Btw, I shall let you in to a little secret cos I know you're mature enough to not take it to heart.

Hehe....

Actually, I forgot it was your birthday until I read Michelle's blog:)

But I know you won't be angry rite?

Well, to think of it, I'm not so sure about that.

ONCE AGAIN HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHINYI! HOPE WE'LL BE LIFE-LONG FRIENDS:)

Yours Sincerely,

Si Yun:)

Electives:)

2010-05-31T08:46:00.008+08:00

I joined culinary class for electives! It was a crazy 3 day course when I really had fun:) Pictures.

2 Astrians unite!:) My hands are the last pair cos I'm the shortest:)

Full group photo. I purposely pulled down my hairnet to look like an AH MAH. Looks like I succeeded.:) We actually asked the guys if they wanted to take with us but they declined.

Astra group photo with Rachel and Huiyi missing. If you look carefully, Huiyi's head is next to Karman, except that she turned backwards. It's easy to recognise with her yellow hair clip:) Everybody is unglam in this photo. Except for Karman looking as natural as ever:]

Group 8!!!Yep, Miss Kiw is in our group:) Notice my droopy eyes from cutting onions:(

Guides group photo:) 13 in total:) Squashed between Grace and Shi Ying.

THE END! I'M REAL GLAD I JOINED CULINARY! I GET NICE FOOD TO EAT EVERYDAY AND FREE DA PAO:) AND I HAD A NICE TIME LAUGHING AT THE RETARDED ANTICS MY DEAR COMICAL FRIENDS DID:)

Unexpected dancing discovery

2010-05-31T08:32:00.003+08:00

I recently discovered that I like dancing. Not a sudden discovery I proclaim. I was always aware that I have a penchant for dancing, just that I never did really want to admit it cos I felt embarrassed.

First thing first.

LIN CHIN, I'M REAL SHOCKED THAT A QUIET AND DEMURE BOY LIKE YOU CAN DANCE A SORT OF A SEDUCING DANCE LIKE THAT! TOTALLY SHOCKING.

What words can I use to describe when I saw Lin Chin dance?

My eyes widened

My jaw dropped

I was so...

ASTONISHED

STARTLED

DUMBFOUNDED

STUPEFIED

BEWILDERED

SPEECHLESS

IN DISBELIEF

I'm sorry Lin Chin, if you're reading this, cos I really underestimated your capability. You're a real life example of two sayings

Looks can be deceiving

Never judge a book by its cover

My, my, I was so shocked. I exhausted my vocabulary:)

Level Camp~

2010-05-30T16:19:00.008+08:00

Okay so basically many things happen since my last post. One of them was level camp.

Yeah, back from level camp. Free from casualties. Except one or two bruises and 17-18 mosquito bites. So itchy! I have three on my left cheek.

We went to Sunlove home @ Hougang and interacted with the elderly at the day camp there who suffered from dementia for CIP. Our performance was quite successful. Well the boys didn't beatbox after all. And I have to say that Xinyi has a talent for interacting with elderly. And one thing.

There was this super duper cute old lady with a unique way of interacting with people. She's a pro at kissing people. She kissed my hand when I shake hands with her and was SO IN LOVE WITH CHUN SAN that she kissed his cheeks and nearly his mouth before he shrugged away. He was disgusted and said,' What the shit' after that. I could still remember a few girls giggling after that. And not to mention a few boys staring stupefied at the old lady and trying to avoid her. Nearly everyone had to wash their hands or faces after interacting with her. But she's so adorable!:)

Oh. And I lost nearly all of my rubber bands and clips after running to the tents with Suli from the toilets. We were horribly late for dinner and felt very anxious. I was so concentrated on running that I didn't noticed that I dropped all of them until I looked at the trail behind me. But I couldn't be bothered and just continued running. Suli told me that after that run she suddenly didn't felt homesick anymore. Weird.

I slept with Suli, Jessica, Eliss, Angelina and Andrea in this small tiny stuffy tent. I was squashed between Eliss and Angelina. And I kept bumping into Eliss in the middle of the night. Like I smacked right onto her back. So that explained the sores I felt in for two whole mornings:(

THAT'S ALL I SHALL SAY. TO LAZY TO WRITE EVERYTHING DOWN BUT OVERALL THE LEVEL CAMP WAS FUN WITH -.-lll INSTRUCTORS AND COMICAL CAMP MATES:)

2010-05-30T13:01:00.002+08:00

Hi everyone! I'm very happy with the amount of response my blog is getting so stay tune okay? New posts are coming soon since the holidays have arrive.

Stay Tune!

Extremely Excited:)

2010-05-17T22:35:00.005+08:00

I added a counter on my blog just for fun. I shall do a survey to see how many people visit my blog in a month:) It's kind of cool:)

TMR IS LEVEL CAMP! HEHEHEHEHE!

I'm so excited! Being a paranoid about forgetting to bring stuff( I have a horrible memory), I checked my stuff 3 times.

AND GUESS WHAT?

I still forgot. The first time, I forgot about my socks. So I had to unpack everything and put them into the bag again. Well, I can't be bothered too so I just stuffed my socks in. The second time, I ALMOST FORGOT to bring the can of food. Yep, luckily I remembered:)

Well, after level camp I still have a pile of homework to complete.

1. SIP ARH!!!!!

2. FPS WHY?????

3. STRUCTURED ESSAY Eeeee:(

4. HOLIDAY HOMEWORK Aiyo. Cheez.

OH MY MAMA! I'm having a headache now cos I didn't drink enough water today:( Shall pop 2 pills of panadol later:( Hope level camp will be enjoyable! I can't bear to watch my class perform tmr. Hope they will give a splendid performance. BUT SERIOUSLY?! BEAT BOXING AND THE RECORDER???

Well off for level camp! I suddenly have a strong urge to write poems:)

Rainbow:)

2010-05-17T20:36:00.004+08:00

I'm not very pleased with my results. My GPA isn't ideal.

I know, I may fail, again and again,
no matter how much hard work I may commit,
But as long as I do my best,
learn from my mistakes,
I should be able to do it,
Isn't it?

I believe if I work harder,
if I search harder,
if I think harder,
I'll soon find my pot of gold
at the end of the rainbow I'm about to create,
a road of my journeys,
my dreams,
my aspirations,
and to my future:)

你变老了

2010-05-14T21:55:00.004+08:00

Oh my gosh I forgot this IMPORTANT post! Actually it may not be important to any of you.

I SAW MDM ONG FROM WSPS AT DHS! AND SHE DIDN'T RECOGNISED ME, COS WE WERE BOTH RUNNING IN OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS FOR SHELTER COS IT WAS RAINING! BUT I'M SUPER SURE IT'S HER!

This is probably what I probably will feel tempted to say, ' HELLO Mdm Ong, yes, I know you miss me and I missed you too. Yep I know, I hadn't grown taller, I'm still shorter than you. By the way is that 2 more wrinkles on your face? OH. 您变老了'

Not a Neat freak

2010-05-14T21:45:00.002+08:00

Today, I shall blog about my messy room. I'm not like any other girl and I'm proud to declare that MY ROOM LOOKS LIKE A GAZILLION NATURAL DISASTERS JUST HAPPENED IN IT. Yep, I'm not a neat freak. I'm a super duper messy person. There are like 5 stacks of books and worksheets surrounding my table now? And the shelves are piled with books, and more books, and more books? What's worse is that they are coated with a thick layer of dust that is able to make a person like Sabrina to sneeze 145893219854 times per minute.

I've tried every idea I had to keep myself organised. But I always end up stashing everything into a drawer, and ransack through my whole room to find a single worksheet. I know and I have tried, but apparently to a person like me, it isn't easy.

What's more worse when my parents are not happy?! They are not neat freaks too, but they make sure our home looks respectable. They are simply too horrified to even step into my room lest they step on something. And my dad has taken to a habit to throw every single thing I forget to keep onto my table. So imagine the load on my table now. HIGHER THAN MOUNTAIN EVEREST, as I might say.

I shall do something during the holidays. I'm sure I'll be able to come out with something. I must. Actually to think of it, it is surely not as messy as those I have seen so far in various people houses:) At least I'm better in organising then them:) Addio!:)

Pop corn chicken, anyone?

2010-05-14T21:25:00.004+08:00

Xue Chun insisted this was pop corn chicken during biology. Chun San's expression when he heard that was priceless. In case you're wondering, that's an infected T cell. The blue stuff is HIV. Now you get what I mean.

To my readers:)

2010-05-14T21:24:00.002+08:00

Yay! I'm so happy with the loads of comments my blog is recieving! So do remember to drop by and comment!:) Yay!

Careless again.

2010-05-11T20:42:00.002+08:00

I was down with a horrible headache yesterday night . So I went to bed at 9.45?! And I woke up at 6.15, with my whole body aching. Man, I felt so old. I was walking hunched, trotting towards the bathroom with my eyes 90% closed(I was half-awake)

BAM! I smashed into the wall( I finally remember now). I didn't know I had a bruise( Actually my fore head was red-SHOCOLOUR) until I went to the school toilet when I reached school. Yup, I'm that blur. My cuts are feeling better now. Though they still sting when they come in contact with water.

Today:)

2010-05-11T20:25:00.003+08:00

Woah. Survived another crazy day of school.

1. Patrol passing down which didn't happen cos P3 was slow. So I will get to know tmr:)

2. Shanice laughing hysterically insisting I must go for level camp.

3. LA when I was nervously waiting for my turn to present.

4. Horrible FPS. I was fuming. Such a waste of efforts.

5. Malay:)

I love Malay today!:)

Survived Malay with crazy Yap Qi pestering me:)
Found out I got a A for Malay Mid-Year! Yay! 4 marks to A+! If only I didn't flunk Cloze Passage(I didn't know what it was even talking about)!
Had this fabulous workshop with Cikgu Jawali(Not sure if this is his name) about Malay culture. Actually a lot about where each segment of the Malay culture is from and old Malay empires. SO FUN AND CIKGU JAWALI IS SO NICE! :) He's real good at interacting with people:)

So far the day has been quite well. Tmr will be a crazier day with Patrol Passing Down, History Graded Assignment, LA Speech, Geog Test, and Theory Class in the afternoon. Aish, I still have to rush home to do my Math Assignment which I haven't even touched on.

Argh, still have to study Geog. I will be very happy if I get an A for Geog Test. Miss Tan haven't even returned my essay to me and majority failed. I'm not so worried about the points but more about the format. 加油思蕴！

*I shall turn my handbook into a scrapbook like Hui Yi's. I love her handbook! It's so cool, there's pictures, post-its and colourful doodles everywhere!:)

Congrats to me:(

2010-05-10T18:51:00.002+08:00

I fell and cut my leg. So I'll be going to school tmr with two mega plasters on my leg. It stings when my leg comes in contact with water. WHY AM I SO CLUMSY? HAIZ.

Getting my Malay paper back tmr. I have confidence I can get a B for it as it isn't really that hard. I really want to get an A:) Maybe I can, provided I don't flunk the comprehension:)

Level Camp in 7 days:) Should be able to go cos my toe looks pretty fine. but it still depends on what the doctor says when I visit him/her on thurs. I really want to go for level camp:)

Praying desperately that I can survive this week and it would be a good one for me. Yay! I just realised there is no math tmr! Hehe!

I must work hard for Term 3. I keep disappointing myself over and over again with my disgusting grades. If I don't buck up, I seriously will not enter a subject combination of my own choice. Shall Mug during the holidays!:)

Aish. Just remembered I had to finish FPS, do my math assignment, revise quadratic graphs(I have a hunch a pop quiz is coming soon and I can't afford to flunk it) and Geog revision(Great. I didn't really pay attention to this during lesson. Oh and editing of my speech!(Geez, I getting the jitters)

My nephew's skin is so soft

2010-05-09T21:32:00.003+08:00

Yep, the title makes me sound like a pervert. But seriously his skin was so soft. Cos he is about a month old. I couldn't resist the temptation of stroking his chest. Wah, so soft.

I simply love babies. They are cuddly, and easy to understand and get along with. They are innocent, unthreatened by the menaces of the society simply because they're young. And most IMPORTANT OF ALL, THEY'RE CUTE. But pretty violent too.

My older nephew(Javier) simply threw a toy pot towards the wall and it broke into half. Amazing rite? I was whimpering in a corner cos it was my favorite cooking pot and he broke it! It was a symbol of my childhood! AND A MERE 3 YEAR OLD KID BROKE IT!

What's more scary was that he scratched his brother's head, which resulted in a scar. Man, I can totally foresee his future. Mr. Incredible, with such a threatening ‘strength’.

Great, he is smashing Barney and Black Power Ranger together now. I better stop before he dislocates their limbs and heads. Bye!:(

下一站，幸福

2010-05-07T21:49:00.003+08:00

I'm seriously considering whether to watch this drama. Xue Chun kept insisting it's real good and I heard that it was a tear-jerker.

I watched the last episode already-the only happy episode as what Xue Chun says. Hmmm. I don't want to waste tissue!

I cry enough to fill buckets when I watch tear-jerkers. I know the whole plot already and it's too dramatic.

But I like the small kid:) Xiao Xiao Bing:) So cute name:) Then his father's name is Xiao Bing Bing and his little brother's name is Mini Bing. HAHA. And it's real. As in his name, LIKE DUH(from vanessa chong:)).

不经一番寒彻骨, 那得梅花扑鼻香

2010-05-07T21:34:00.003+08:00

This was what Wu Lao Shi forced me to memorise while the others did Pt. It means that only when you have gone through trials and tribulations that you grow and become stronger and more resilient. Well, I can use it maybe next time?

I feel so tired. Didn't joined the rest for pt today cos of my injured toe. Everyone seems disgusted with it and my toe, being sensitive about how people views it, has been down in the dumps and has since shrivelled by a couple of centimeters.

Well, so what did I do when others were doing pt?

Ask Jie Ying whether she was feeling okay
Counted how many year ones were present today- 27
Observe them
Listen to what the year twos were cheering about
Stared as the scouts clapped their hands according to the rhythm of the drum for lion dance. They were frowning in concentration._.
Stared at year 4s
Listen as Wu Lao Shi talked about chinese poems and forced me to memorise them. (Hey Huang Lao Shi, I just found your twin! :) )
Struggled and burnt brain cells as Wu Lao Shi droned on and on about the poems.
Ended when the rest came back from pt.

At least I learnt some chinese phrases.

My poor toe:(

2010-05-03T11:53:00.004+08:00

I going to school in sandals for the next 5 days of school. Great.

Stupid toenail. Why must it grow inwards?

Why must this type of thing always happen to me?

Now I have to go for an operation to remove my toenail(of course not the whole thing but at least 1/4 of it.)

My toe looks distorted. Pus is coming out, the flesh is kind of blue-black and swollen. I have to eat a total of 14 antibiotics a day and I have to wash my toe 2 times a day with a kind of purple medicine. Horrible.

And the worst thing! The pain! I don't want to wear sandals to school! It makes my toe more vulnerable! People will squashed it(Have I mentioned that people always step on my toes?). And I'll recieve stares._.

Why can't I have an earlier operation? I rather get done with it. The earlier the better. The doctor says that I might not get to do physical activity for weeks. WEEKS! And my operation is like during level camp? So I'll not be going for level camp. Unless it heals, which is not very possible. NOOOOOOO!!!!!!.

Aiyo. So troublesome. But the cool thing is my leg might become like Sabrina's hand! Very Hairy. Cos my toe will probably be bandaged after the operation! HAHA!! Sorry ANG ANG IF THIS OFFENDS YOU! :)

I bet my toe will look damn cool. 1/4 of the nail missing. Just flesh. It will be so unique. Why?

My adorble Dad:)

2010-05-01T12:24:00.006+08:00

My dad and I at my 5th birthday:)

My goofy dad and my nephew. My nephew was probably thinking what a weird granduncle he has ^_^

Unlike most people, despite entering my teens I still have a pretty close relationship with both parents. They are my best friends ever:) They understand me very well, and I tell them all my darkest secrets. Even to my dad:)

My dad's the family clown. He loves singing. And he's real good at it. But sometimes it can be pretty irritating. Especially when you wake up at 5 in the morning with your dad singing in the toilet Phantom of the Oprea's theme song. A total nightmare.

What's more, his pretty into Korean music. He knows how to sing Maria, from 300 Pounds Beauty. He can dance and sing to Nobody by Wonder Girls, which I couldn't help but roll on the floor with laughter. Lately he has taken to sing Ring Din Dong by Shinee. He loves to emphasise on the ring ding dong part.

Well, I love my parents and they will always be my best friends ever!:D

P.S I feeding my father with FT Island MVs. He's currently squinting at them. It won't be long before he sings I Hope! HAHA!

清明时节雨纷纷，路上行人欲断魂。借问酒家何处有，牧童谣指杏花村。

2010-05-01T12:17:00.004+08:00

This post is about a month old. I took these pictures on 4 April in the car hence they are quite fuzzy. It was raining heavy and my legs were caked with mud as I lunged around to get to my ancestors' graves. I slipped a couple of times and got my bottom caked with slime. It was a once in a life time experience. Pretty entertaining, isn't it?(I'm being real sarcastic these days).

Just some scenic photos:)

2010-05-01T11:55:00.006+08:00

Just some pictures I took last Sunday at Changi Beach during the sunset while strolling with my dad and nephew:)

My nephew, Javier, when I tried to make him smile. Apparently it was a failure. He's smirking at me like I'm a moron._.

~The End~

Night walk..where pathetic morons surface.

2010-04-21T18:57:00.006+08:00

Lesson learnt from night walk during overnight camp.

There were countless times when a year one scout whimpered,' Can we don't go into the toilet alone? Can we go in pairs?' while the other was talking non-stop(to calm his nerves?) and screamed when he went into the toilet(as in really scream in horror).

Was it really that firghtening? Perhaps it was, then when we were unsure of what would happen. But when you look back now, and think really carefully, it was just fear. So what is fear?

Fear is:

when you have to hold on desperately onto your seat belt, fearing for your life as your father speeds through the expressway to get you in time for school
when you just realise you have 1 min left to tackle a page full of Math questions
when you nephew clungs on to you crying his lungs out and you stare at him, stupidflied and clueless on what to do

Well, that's my version of fear. What's yours?

What's Your Name?

2010-04-14T18:57:00.003+08:00

I met a couple of juniors from my primary school while walking home from the bus stop after theory lesson.

While waiting for the traffic light to turn green...

Junior 1( Malay Girl with big eyes, sweet-looking) whispered : 'Hey, I bet you don't dare to ask the girl in front of us for her name.'

Junior 2 ( Chinese Girl with long hair and kind of cute) smirked and said:' Yes I do!'

Junior 1 whispered furiously: 'I dare you too.'

Junior 2 said:' Hey what's your name?!'

I folded my arms and pretended not to hear them. Cos I wanted to play a prank and make both of them lose the bet:D

Junior 1 giggled: 'I don't think she heard you. Try saying louder.'

Junior 2 said:' Oh yeah? Hey what's your name?!'

Traffic lights turned green. I started walking briskly. It became an obsession for them to ask my name? Why????

Junior 1 and Junior 2 said:' HEY! WHAT'S YOUR NAME?? HEY! WHAT'S YOUR NAME????HEY! WHAT'S YOUR NAME????!!!!!!!!'

They SHOUTED at the TOP OF THEIR VOICES! It was SO DARN EMBARRASSING. BUT I BIT MY LIP TILL THEY WERE OUT OF SIGHT AND STARTED LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY:D

I feel kind of guilty. So next time when they ask me for my name(if they ever do again), I should just reply them. Juniors are always fun and cute. Especially when they ask you for your name:D

PANIC ATTACK

2010-04-07T21:31:00.005+08:00

I had three of these since yesterday?

1st was when I heard that there was a math pop quiz(i won't do well)

2nd was when Mr Iskandar gave us a surprise test

It was freaking hard that I was thinking how to convince my mother that I want to call it quits without her screaming bloody murder after I finished it.(I got 0 for cloze passage. It was about anime. Imagine filling in a cloze passage in malay about anime? I had no idea what it even mean)

3rd~FPS. GOSH HOW MANY PANIC LAUNCHES DID I HAVE ON THIS ONE ALREADY? MR TEO INSIST THAT FPS ISN'T DUE TMR BUT I REMEMBER THAT THE TEACHER IN CHARGE SAID IT WAS DUE TMR. AND MR TEO HAVEN EVEN CHECKED OUR PROBLEMS AND UNDERLYING PROBLEM YET.

School life so far has been well, like taking a cab ride home with the typical Singaporean taxi driver from hell which means, a roller coaster ride. I've been struggling to sleep early, finish my work, revise, play, etc. But I'm seriously feeling very exhausted. I really want to just stop and rest.

But what can I do? School life is said to be the most fun compared to working life. Can't imagine the horrors I've to face when I grow up*shudders*.

So I shall make the best of it! And try to 快快乐乐上学去！

I'm Dog tired.

2010-04-01T21:18:00.002+08:00

I'm so tired. Except that I'm not doing what dogs do when they are tired-sleeping. I mulling around with the computer, doing nothing in particular though I promised myself to finish my theory homework and malay by today?

Marched for 2hours just now for speech day rehersal. The things I gained from the rehersal were:

sore muscles
the hang of marching
extra goriness

I could have collapse but somehow I manage to preserve.

I slept at 1 last night to finish my history essay, chinese project and cme project. So I felt quite accomplished. Except that I realised I still have loads of work to do?

Well, I have yet to sign up for kayaking, trying to find a week that is the least packed. I love kayaking!:D Hope I can sign up for it soon. Water sports are fun:D

Yay I should just sleep now and wake up early tmr to do whatever I have to do. Cos I have to visit the cemetery for Sunday for 清明节. So I've a day lesser to do my stuff. It would be a sad affair.

How retarded I can be.

2010-03-18T17:41:00.005+08:00

1. When I was five in Australia, I flicked one pile of goose dunk onto a group of geese( with a stick). It was green and the geese ended up looking like a white Christmas tree being decorated in holly. What was the result? I got chased by them all around the park. And the park was full of goose shit. So I smelled real bad after that.

2. My little cousin peed on me. It was horrible. But the bright side was: It sterilised my feet. Cos it was so hot, fresh out of the oven.

3. I dropped a worm on my cousin. It went into her shirt. Guess what happened after that. Loads of noise.

4. I kicked a football in my grandma's room. It hit the light. There was a blackout.

5. I ran in the shopping centre. I fell. Right on my face.

6. I had a competition with my classmate to see who gets the highest temperature while rubbing the thermometer vigorously on the forehead. I won. But I ended up with a permanent mark on my forehead for the rest of the week.

7. I tried to squeeze through the gates to the field in my primary school. It wasn't like there wasn't another way to get in. But I just had to prove how skinny I was. I ended up with the skin of my ears being ripped off completely. Cos I was a big head.

And many many more. Just that I can't remember.

Don't you've to worry, your secret's safe with me

2010-03-18T12:31:00.005+08:00

Tell me your secret,
And I'll tell you mine.
It's fair and square,
And in my heart it'll be,
Forever intertwined

Everyone has a secret,
That's true and always will be,
If you want to share your secret,
You can always count on me.

Sometimes you have a dark secret,
A secret dark and sacred,
One that's so terrible,
That could drive you mad.

But don't you have to worry,
You can count on me.
I might not look strong,
But I'm strong as a bull can be

I promise I'll do my best,
And keep your secret well
Stand by you when you're happy
And when you're like hell

After all, I'm your friend.
I'll always help you with what I can.
So don't you've to worry,
Your secret's safe with me.

I've been affected by Apollo, the Greek god of the Sun, prophecies and poems. I started thinking in poems. Not to mention how awful they are. But anyway I posted a stupid poem still, so that I can get it off my heart. Tata~

2010-03-08T21:26:00.004+08:00

For those who worked hard,
They should get what they deserve.
And for those who don't.
They don't deserve anything.

But why is life always so unpredictable?
The ones who strive for their very best,
Slog their guts out,
Sacrifice their loves
Why don't they get what they want?

Why is life so unfair?
It's simply not understandable.
The good gets nothing
The bad gets everything
The poor becomes poorer
The rich gets richer

The retards are spite, dispised,
The geniuses are praised

Many people live in oblivious of the less fortunate in the society
While others are aware and strive to help them, but all is in vain.

Why people just can't be more understanding?
Why can't we all help each other?
And not discriminate people who are different
In terms or their behaviour or IQ
People are all of the same species,
But why are there so many different types of people?

Why am I saying this?
I'm greatly saddened by it.
How can people be so heartless?
And why is life unfair?

2010-02-24T20:07:00.002+08:00

I wish I get sick so that I can skip school tmr. Seriously. I really can't cope with all the homework coming. I seriously think that I flunked my Malay test. I didn't know what was flower pot in malay so I simply just wrote it in English for the whole compo.

Jonit was worse. She mixed up kawan with kamu(I have no idea how she did it). So her compo was about her friend. So instead of kawan, she wrote kamu. There was one sentence she wrote, I like my friend. It turned out to be,'Saya suka dia.' Seriously, who can make such a blunder like her? I couldn't stop laughing when she told me. And the teacher marking will be Mr Iskandar. Can you imagine him keeping a straight face when reading such a funny compo? Even the hardest stone will break when something heavy hits it.

I've History test, Maths Asignment and Cheng yu ting ce tmr. Argh. I'm halfway through Math and Chengyu and about done with History. But I seriously feel like sleeping. I really hope I can finish them by ten. Will I be able to?

Goodnight, sleep tight...

I recently developed a complex on criticising Korean pop bands.

Last Friday, Xiao Qi and I went to Sabrina's house. We ate instant noodles while watching John Tucker Must Die (One of the best comedies I watched about high school). And then we slacked before starting on our thinking day presents. After a failed attempt on handmade key chains we decided to do jelly. So i wrote the cards while watching finish the movie while Sabrina and Xiao Qi went to do the jelly.

That's not the BEST part. After that we watched a KOREAN SHOW THAT SHOWCASED new songs performed by POPULAR POP BANDS. Like SNSD, 2am, CNBLUE, etc. Actually not all of them are cool. On yeah, MICHELLE, THE GUY WHO ACTED SHIN WOO IN YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL IS IN CNBLUE:D

So we started criticising those 我们看不上眼. So half way through Sabrina decided to bathe. That's when 2am came and sang in the show. SO SOMEHOW, SABRINA HEARD IT IN THE BATHROOM AND RAN OUT WITH JUST A TOWEL TUCKED AROUND HER BODY.

Siyun: My gosh, this is 2am?

Xiao Qi: I guess so.

Sabrina: OMG 2AM!!!!!! I LOVE THEM!!!!!(IN TOILET)

Siyun: They look gay. Not really that good looking.

Sabrina: HEY I HEARD THAT! (RUNS OUT OF TOILET)

Siyun: OMG. ARE YOU ACTUALLY WEARING ANYTHING? IT'S JUST A CLOTH WRAPPED AROUND.

Xiao Qi: OMG. I MUST TAKE A PICTURE!!!(giggles)

Sabrina: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

Hey Angel:D

2010-02-21T14:28:00.003+08:00

Dear Angel,

You have been a lovely Angel. I know you are out there in some place reading my blog*raises eyebrows*. Thanks for the chips you gave as well as the nice lollipop card. Unfortunately, the chips ran out in 10mins. The reasons are:

1. Xue Chun stole one from me without my permission.
2. It's all her fault. Why do I say so?
3. Cos it sparked off a wild fire
4. People started to ask me for chips
5. So in the end only a few were left.
6. So i started eating it
7. And I couldn't control myself.
8. And before I knew it it was ALL GONE.

Soo sorry.......................说来说去都是雪纯的错！！雪纯，你给我记住！！！这个仇我一定会报的！！！！！！！*CACKLES EVILLY*

Lol. I just showed you my UGLY side. Anyway, you've been a nice nice Angel so thank you:D

LOVE,
Siyun

P.S I really don't know who you are
PP.S I'm not very curious
PPP.S COS SURPRISES ARE FUN!!:D
PPPP.S I CAPITALISED LOVE :D
PPPPP.S I KNOW I BEING RETARDED SO BYE:D

What I want...

2010-02-21T13:58:00.003+08:00

I really should be studying now but I'm not. I'm once again, bombarded with homework. All my seniors are saying year 2 is the happiest time in DHS. Well, I admit, it's a whole lot crazier, more fun, and not to mention, a roller-coaster year. Every day I can at least hear this sentence once:'Year 2 is A VERY IMPORTANT YEAR. IT'S YOUR STREAMING YEAR.' Yes, I know, and I've been working hard. But I always don't get the results I want. I do horribly at pop quizzes and a couple of tests. That's not what I want. I want to be an all-rounded person. A person with a good character, excellent grades etc. I've not achieved any of those ever since I've made the wish since I was 10.

3 years passed, and am I going to fail again for the fourth year? Will I fulfill my dreams? Will I get what I want?

Will I ever be satisfied and accept myself for who I am? Will I not try to change myself again?

Will I ever be happy?

ADIOS AMIGOS!!!!:D

2010-02-08T20:46:00.003+08:00

My blog's going to be dead for a couple of weeks until:

1. My results improve
2. All tests are finished
3. All homework has stopped piling up
4. All homework has been done
5. Till I regain my feel for blogging
6. Till I return back to normal

Till then, HASTA LA VISTA BABIES:D

Chats again with LAME Hui Yi and LOL Karman

2010-02-01T20:34:00.004+08:00

Well yesterday I was online for 7 hours for FPS. WE'RE THE CHIONGSTERS. I HATE CHIONGING. IT WAS TIRING. So here are some interesting chats with LAME Hui Yi and LOL Karman. It also gives you a glimpse on how chim FPS can be.:(My PM Pic after editing at Picnik. Inspiration from Mr Swee:D

At first my PM was: i will hang myself if i don't get fps done....i want to eat ba kwa>.<
After I changed it to: saya hendak terbang melayang tetapi saya akan selalu jatuh dan pecah:( Is it rite?

At the beginning I had a group chat with Karman and Hui Yi when Siyu was not onlinw. Then after that Karman left the chat and Hui Yi became invisible. It wasn't long before Siyu signed in so we had group chat again.:D

19:14 lim.huiyi: tiktok.
3. Psychological Health
Research has proved that the psychological health and productivity of a person is greatly interrelated. As technology continues to advance, humans might overuse the internet as it gradually gets incorporated into their daily lives. They might become too engrossed in the world wide web, causing their perception of reality to be distorted, and hence psychological health problems might surface. As a result, this might lead to future generations with negative perspectives with the inability to think of feasible solutions for difficulties that may arise, affecting the future of mankind. Thus, the evolution of technology might disadvantage the human race as it might influence our psychological health.
19:15 me: wow.

19:25 me: okay...it sorts of relate

Hungry. Real Hungry. Everyone went out for CNY Shopping. I'm the only one lrft at home. Nothing much to eat to. Hmmm. Maybe I should eat all the icecream.....On second thoughts, maybe no. I can't risk another stomach ache:D

Yesterday.

2010-01-30T12:55:00.005+08:00

Yestersay CCA was slacking. We bascially just packed 1800 plus of goodie bags for the Principal's meet on Monday and Tuesday. It was pretty fun:D Everbody became profesional super market auntie packers in the 2-3 hrs of packing. Backache followed after that and we realised that in order to be a profesional super market auntie packer, we need:

1. A loud voice to scream at others for being slow(Shanice did that)
2. Nimble fingers
3. And loads of patience(Especially when with 3 dozen over crazy girls confined in a air-conditioned room)

Oh and we had a new member today. She was Janelle and she appealed in from String Essemble. Apparently she felt that it was an expensive CCA. Wait till she finds how torturous Girl Guides can beO.O

Oh yeah and yesterday during Chinese Lesson something happen. Cos you see, I love to eat(And I dun get fat no matter how much I eat:D) so I think I ate loads of crap for the past few days. So I had this severe stomach pain during Chinese Lesson. So this happened.

Siyun raises up her hand.

Tan KB: 有事吗？
Siyun：老师我能上厕所吗？
Tan KB：等一下可以吗？等我讲完你才去。
Siyun：好。

15 mins later...

Siyun raises her hand again.
Tan KB shakes his head.

5 mins later....

Siyun raises her hand AGAIN.

Tan KB: 有事吗??(HE ACTUALLY FORGOT THAT I WANTED TO GO TO THE TOILET!)
Siyun：老师我现在能上厕所了吗？
Tan KB：Oh. 可以。

I was super duper angry cos he made me wait for so long and after that he actually forgot that I wanted to go to the toilet!!!!! Argh. Short term memory loss.....O.O
