I was just telling someone the other day, how life has changed over such a short period of time.
To begin writing about this is hard, because to be honest, I don’t know where to begin. I stopped myself from writing here then, and I’m going to ask myself to write something here again now.
There is a need to pause and let the mind ponder how it feels and what it wants. Penning these thoughts in words helps, for me at least. So maybe you can try this someday too.
The last few years were definitely within my formative years. How so? Because it was the age where you really start to learn to appreciate the world around you. By that, I literally mean the world.
That was the time when you truly understand how important it is to you that you have people, no matter good or bad, for better or worse, who will stand by you always. I ever wondered about a question, should you appreciate those who love you no matter what you are, and this love of theirs will continue from the moment you’re born till they cease to exist; or those who love you because of what you are and what you do?
I won’t say the so called “answer” here since answers aren’t always out there huh?
That was the time when I found out how wonderful it was to be in love and that it was so powerful that it commanded your everyday life; and that everything seemed so blissful that you were afraid to say it loud because fate might get jealous and turn all you had into bubbles of illusion. That was also the time when you felt that love could give you such strength that you could let go of everything rationale that you once held in mind and allowed irrationality to sit in because you knew that there weren’t even consequences to worry about.
That was also the time when you learnt how to love someone; realizing and knowing someone you were once part of would be better off without you; And that this was more important than a part of you being ripped off, be it in the most violent or gentle manner; bloody or bloodless. How letting go of what may seem the most precious thing to you then was necessary because it was suppose to heal your wounds and make your heart stronger; How sadness could go beyond words and made you into a zombie that walked the everyday streets of the living earth, where even the magnificent sky you have always adored or the most beautiful melody you have ever heard could not intrigued you in the slightest way.
That was the time when you understood “you” more. How stubborn you could be and how reckless and selfish you could go. Because you wanted a so called reply, an answer, you tried your best extort it, callously. You bruise yourself along the way and hurt the people whom you dear. That was too the time where you realize that for some things no matter how hard you try, it just doesn’t turn out the way it should and you realize how hard it is to learn to stop so that the damage you will do is minimal.
That was the time when you learnt to make your face a mask, a mask that hides the pain, a pain that eats the heart, a heart that nobody will know.
That was the time when you discovered how lonely the yellow street lights can be and that the once lovely gibbous moon that hung in the sky can seem so sad that it made you cry. It was then that you realized how frightening love can be when the silence of the long dark nights you had to go through after it left was nothing compared to it. It was then that you realized that just the thought of a mere name could make the heart hurt so much that nothing you know of in this world could make it stop.
That was the time when you come to understand that there exists things that only you yourself achieve and that no one could save you from the mess you were in. You’re the only one in the universe that can make things right in your world. And so then was the time where you literally learnt how to pick yourself up again and tell yourself confidently that everything will be fine.
That was the time when you sought after His help and guidance the most; the moment of truth where you tried to understand and understood the things that were happening around you. You were taught that the thought that you were the only one who could achieve things was too arrogant. He found you through his mysterious ways and you were shown how far faith in Him could bring you.
That was the time you learnt how to share; and that saying out what you feel doesn’t make you weak but stronger than ever, because then you know you’re not alone. And you know that even what may seem the quietest days of your life, aren’t those that are filled with solitude as there will always be someone there for you, if you would just bother to open your eyes.
That was the time when you looked at the sky with the same amount of fondness you once had and knew that everything is fine.
You now understand that the world goes on, so will life on it, no matter what happens. And that you keep pace with the world with your best to move on so that you know that every breath you take in is human and is real. You realize that after all that you’ve been through, nothing has really changed. The people who love you are still here and that those whom you love are as good as ever. The people whom you once love are still part of you despite their departure and that these memories, good or bad, are precious. The world that He made is as beautiful as it still makes you gaze in awe and that even the most little things in life still intrigue you in their own way.
I've been listening to this song by Bruce Springsteen lately and I love it. So here's the great song that I would like to share with you guys. Enjoy!
I come from down in the valley where mister when you're young They bring you up to do like your daddy done Me and Mary we met in high school when she was just seventeen We'd ride out of that valley down to where the fields were green We'd go down to the river And into the river we'd dive Oh down to the river we'd ride
Then I got Mary pregnant and man that was all she wrote And for my nineteenth birthday I got a union card and a wedding coat We went down to the courthouseand the judge put it all to rest No wedding day smiles no walk down the aisle No flowers no wedding dress That night we went down to the river And into the river we'd dive Oh down to the river we did ride
I got a job working construction for the Johnstown Company But lately there ain't been much work on account of the economy Now all them things that seemed so important Well mister they vanished right into the air Now I just act like I don't remember Mary acts like she don't care
But I remember us riding in my brother's car Her body tan and wet down at the reservoir At night on them banks I'd lie awake And pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take
Now those memories come back to haunt me they haunt me like a curse Is a dream a lie if it don't come true Or is it something worse that sends me down to the river though I know the river is dry
That sends me down to the river tonight Down to the rivermy baby and I Oh down to the river we ride
I cant fall asleep. Maybe it's because the usual habit of sleeping late, or im too excited, about? haha, that'll be a secret for now, maybe i dont even have an answer to that. To think about it, my usual timing to sleep around 9pm during Junior High days was kinda crazy. Well, instead of taking out something to study, i've decided to post something here which i have not for a long time.
Many things have happened since i last posted something here, which is impossible for me to pen or rather type down here. But this week was a super crazy week for some of us. 8 A levels papers a roll in 5 days. Yup, and we knocked them down, or maybe vice versa, which i hope not. haha.
No stars or moon tonight, guess it's been a cloudy day, with the rain and stuff. I din get to study much today, yea...the slacking me is coming around again. But i'll shoo it away tomorrow. Im starting to miss school. I think it's gonna get worse as 2009 ends. Im gonna miss life in the hostel as well, that's gonna sound ironic to some of you cos I used to dread life there. I feel like attending lectures, going to boring tutorials, sitting to the usual faces. AND i want PE classes! It's really my favourite lesson. The relief that you get from the end of a long boring lecture or lesson is just awesome, I really like the feeling that when everyone is into this together, haha, everyone's here for the lecture, and it's interesting to hear them talk about it afterwards. Not to mention the part where you chiong (or rather only some of us, okay, maybe only me) to the canteen for food... haha.
It's just too bad that we have to end our last year in this place with this hectic examination schedule.
Yup, and i'll miss hanging out in special places in school. School <3
It's been a super long and ardous week and the week has not ended yet. This is so not cool. But maybe im just in a not-feel-like-studying-mood, haha so tadah! Im here typing an entry!
It's raining outside now and im super excited. It's nice to have it pouring outside and yourself listening to your favourite music on your warm and cosy bed! Hehe. Wah, so that's the reason why i like rainy days? Hee maybe.
And I have NOT been online for so long my mailbox kinda just exploded cos of the facebook emails. But that's better than real long emails (official ones to be specific), cos you can just deleteeeee everything.
I did the thing that my history teacher, Ms Krishnan, told us to do. Write all your targets and paste it everywhere. Haha. It's kinda crazy and i think it helps abit, cos when you feel like slacking, that piece of paper will just remind you that "hey get going!"
OK,im going off and i miss Gringo! And the song that's getting me high now is SNOW by R.H.C.P~ (maybe it'll have the same effect on you too) but it's not snowing now, IT'S RAINING!~ HAHA
I think this is my first time posting something like a class photo here. Don't think it has everyone here, but yea, this is most of the people in them :)
OK, today is my last day at home for the June holidays and also for June 2009. For the darlings in my house i shall post something for them, since it's been quite some time since i last talked about them here.
So the few weeks at home, other than being able to spend more time with my folks, i also spent much with Dooku, Gringo, Dongdong, and Intan ( german shephard, but the only female around.haha, so she's the only princess). I really enjoyed the time with them, although you cant have 4 of them together, because the three princes are super aggressive, or rather both Gringo and Dongz dislike Dooku. I dunno why, but that's the way it is. Everytime they meet right, they'll just start eyeballing each other and GROWLING and showing their pearly white teeth, seriously it's damnnnnnnn scary.
Haha, okay so the routine usually, i "train" Gringo before lunch. Training meaning the basics-sit, down, stay, up, come, heel. And he LOVES playing with Tug-o-war. So yea, basically it would lotsa fun, sometimes excluding the training part cause he can get really annoying by ignoring you. But play time is good. He really focuses. You may be asking, why Gringo, haha i dunno, 比较投缘吧 and dad trains the rest of em. The rest are awesome kids also. Dooku is a real charmer, Intan just loves to stick to you and Dongz gets crazy when you splash water.
Anyway back to the routine. And here comes the most fun part of my day (cause after a day of studying this is what i look forward to most, lols), i get to bring them out to gaigai in the evening! haha. Yes, Gaigai is totally the word. And i have to say Dooku hops like a kangaroo( that was random). Usually it's late evening cause we dont leash them, that means they run wild, but actually only Dooku runs wildly, so we dont want times where people are usually busier. Haha, though picking up shit is quite a hassle, especially when you cant find it at night, it's quite fun and I love to see them running here and there, and them being busybodies sniffing around.
Okay, good news is cause it's my Last Day (at home for June2009), my dad has kindly agreed to let Dooku sleep in my room tonight=) Hehe. Only Dooku and Dongz are suitable to stay in the house cause Gringo will pee and Intan will bite stuff. So yea, Dooku gets to sleep in tonight.
Alrighty, end of story, i'll upload the pics and that's it=)
I din get to blog about the NTUMUN that i went for my weekends. It was quite interesting actually although i was quite bored for some hours. But to see them quarrel diplomatically is truly an eye opener. im not being racist but the indians are seriously good. i like the China delegate from my council because he has sense in his talking yet he's so funny...super. If u were there you would know what i mean. Anyway, my council ( Security Council ) was termed as the most interesting councils of the whole MUN. So honoured. Lols. The food there wasnt as good and i think raffles serves nicest food so far. haha cream puffs!<3 But at the last day of the MUN i got qutie pekcek cos i missed my curfew and i had to wait for the 20min thanking speech to end and waited for dunno how long to get my COP which ended up to be a wrong one. WTH right...oh bother! I shant think about it. Anyway my partner, Jeric, ended up to be a nice guy and it was quite fun crapping with him when we had nothing to do. And as usual met quite a lot of new ppl but i doubt we can keep in touch. Lol. Cos i cant even keep in touch with my ex-classmates, not to say people i met in my MUN. Quite sad huh. Ok so here are some pics...
Delegates..in chaos( the one raising the hand is the China delegate that is so funny!)
Yup..burkina faso,heard of it? It's in west africa.
My fellow delegate from the Philippines-Jeric=)
Haha..i cant help it but to take a pic for this watermelon pig.
me and my angel and the pig
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY everyone...it's gonna end soon.
Haven gotten the chance to come up here although there were plenty of times i wanted to do so. As usual, lotsa things happened and i dont even have the time to record them down or to share them here.
Ok, i'll talk about today then. Today, our whole family went out to Singapore for Vday because of lucky onikku. So here's another story, she was listening to 933 on thurs or wed night then she happened to just sms in for fun for the "情人节祝语", so she tot of Lu Wen's words :你喜欢的我都喜欢,因为我最喜欢的人是你;你害怕的我都不怕,因为我最想保护的人是你。ok...it's kinda rou ma, budden since Chong Qing and Wei Bin liked it i guess it's one of the better smses. Lols. So she won 2 tickets for the Singapore Flyer Vday package thingy. Too bad she doesnt have a bf and so she decided to let our folks go er ren shi jie. So cute huh. Anw Lu Wen was super happy to hear that her "ming yan" got chosen...hahaha. Ok so while we waited for them (we had about 1h30min although the ride is only like 30min)we went to Marina Square to shop! Woohoo! It's been quite some time since we last get to go gaigai together loh. And i think we're SUPER efficient when we shop together w/o anyone else cos we all had quite some 收获. So today was super fun...hehe. Budden i still have to finish the ASEAN summaries package to send Yifan asap. ok i think im quite better off compared to other ppl liao, so no more from me=)
And the angel and mortal game in my school finally came to an end. My mortal is...Mantha (tadah!) and my zhutou angel is actually Mian Mian...omg right...hahaha, i din expect my angel to be her. Because she was so lame before the day and wrote me a "note" literally on the postcard, i was so lamed out that i made her a watermelon PIG..wakakaka. But it's quite cute la, i wonder if she cut it and eat it so soon. Ok and im very proud of myself cos i finally managed to fool my 1st mortal by not exposing my angelic identity...ahahahah, so MANTHA..ure my first victim ok...=D And im glad that both of them are happy on Vday, at least from what they look like i think they are. Haha. And i refuse to use "friendship day", cos it's just too lame. Valentine is a nice name, like Vincent Valentine...cool.
I finally am in my home sweet home this weekend! It's been like 2 weeks...so long. I am very happy to be at home and to be able to sleep on my bed. Sleeping at home is just different la and i get to eat at home! That's the best man. I just keep on eating, haha.And it's good that i get to chat with daddy and mommy after 2 weeks cos i dun see them and im always very tired when i call them. School life is just hectic. BUT i'll enjoy it!=) And oh oh i got to talk to Sanba also, i had quite a good chat with her. Opened my mind in some sense also. So now im thinking quite often, which means i'll stone!hahaha. And Gringo and Dooku! Finally! Gringo grows damn fast and he's fat now, when i say fat it just means he's more plump but he's still ok and Dooku is the ever slim one. Although kena quite a few attacks but it's quite lovely to spend a few hours with them because it's just so rare. Hah..i love home.
ok...it's getting late and im getting sleepy. I get a feeling im just gonna conk off. Although i still wanna be on the phone budden it's just too hard when im at home. Lols. Good night!=)
haha alliance between Bennu and Drakon k..call it BenKon or DraNu..lol!

Finally im back in my home sweet home. And that means i get the chance to blog! haha. Doesnt mean that if im not at home i dun get to blog but its just that i can do it in a more relax manner. This past one and a half week has been SUPER DUPER crazy for me. Lotsa things happened, so soon that i cant even have the chance to blog about it. But the main thing that i just returned from was SENIOR HIGH ORIENTATION 2009! I have lotsa photos here but i think im just gonna upload some. OKok... the people in B8 ( my OG group) are ( in no particular order):
Pui Mun: the super high and energetic one...always tryin to untie my shoe laces..haha, but she's good at it. And i've learnt how to evade your attack now! haha=)
Xun Lin: the one that super on. Always very cool..u noe like chill...then she has a good appetite that means your metabolic rate is high! haha
Li Qin: Haha...the cute girl that doesnt look like a JC1 girl to me..seriously. but that means..you look young!
Yu Ting: The other cute girl that pairs nicely with Li Qin la...i think you all like to hear gossips right...hehe next time can do updates for me!
Yi Ling: ibasketball! Next time you see me we can challenge each other la...see how many balls u in..hehe. And thanks for saying im "wonderwoman" instead of "wanderwoman" k=)

Eustance: So sorry to mix up your name and Junhao's...you guys dun look alike but u just have the junhao face la. Paiseh ok. and dont be so shy and humble k...u ABC own everyone can!haha
Bowen: The guy with 5000bucks in his ATM! Next time you give treat ok...MUST..hehe..adn ure smiley face is quite cute.haha.
And also! my partner Benjamin Foo aka Benfoo! A BIG thank you all very much and i enjoyed orientation very much..this is not 客套话ok...haha=) Let's stay in touch then someday we can do cheers together again. haha=D
Then not to forget the year 6s, we have faith, who went off half way as SM, cos she was damn bored, im sorry. Next we got Geoffrey and SamC who also went off as SMs, then Mian Mian who had to chiong her research paper..So basically thruout the 5 days mainly the 11 year 5s stayed. They're all super high people la, everytime i wanna do Anggonggong/Bennu/Pipipi cheer right they'll just support me. haha...screaming and shouting to your heart's content...although im like black and red now ( kinda terrible), it was worth it! haha~
There are too many activities ady...but waterfesta was quite fun. Cos they was water and water makes people happy. But our group din get to play water polo which was quite sad..it sounds fun. Haha and then cluedo right..should be fun also budden i was dying half way so i thought even if something really went pass i wouldnt realise. Then the funny thing is that cos i was stoning everywhere we went, the other OGs thought i was one of the scarers then kept on shining their lightsticks at me...-_- so for that night i only slept for 3 hours. The night was suppose to be even scarier accordin to the SCs but the weird thing was that the lights in our school couldn't be switched off so everything was brightly lit...not very scary...but kinda freaky when i heard that. Then the last night we had in school was finale night, we were told that we have to end early cos we kena alot of complains from the residents...haha. Finale night got mass dance performance + games + dance competition. Very cool. I was entertained and i believe everyone was. The games were very funny, cos they involved guys and girls so they had to do quite embarassing stuff to win the game. Then the mass dance part right, Jovi from Homa owned everyone la seriously. His actions for the dance are super duper funny. Steffi junyang benfoo and me couldnt stop the laffing like mad. So everything ended smoothly on friday which was yesterday, felt kinda sad cos that means no more orientation and no more holiday mood for me and back to reality where i got school stuff + ISAC stuff + ASEAN stuff...not that i dislike school, its just that this year is like the last year and i kinda have mixed feelings. I love Dunman High <3!
Ok..and then i must talk about the Grease musical that i went to with my mom and sis...its by the ITE kids and they were superb! Now all the songs are like stuck in my head...haha. And i just rewatched Grease...haha..i'll post more on it later on. like the songs tat are nice..they're gay and happy songs.so you'll definitely feel happy after listening to it...HIGH!=)
Here I am back again..just went out to buy some stuff and brought Dooku out for a walk. He's damn strong, especially when he sees things that interest him like other dogs, people, toads, and stuff that moves around. haha...he's quite adventurous and that's good and i like his character! Though mom doesnt really like it but today he's gonna sleeping beside me, yay!
OK...that's all for now,im sleepy again..today ive been sleeping alot and by that it mean A LOT=)
nites.
Grease musical @ ITE college east ( lovely campus!)
I have decided to blog again. Thought that my blog would be very kelian if i din post something before 2008 ends.
Time really flies and now 2008 is flying away too.
I've noticed people around me have been upset or sad nowadays. Although Im not the one going thru all those sadness, to see a friend upset is quite dreadful at times. That's why Like what Karen said, some things may not seem helpful to you but continue doing it, because it makes a difference. I'll be praying. I want you all to be happy as well!=)
Its been great to be able to have karen in my house for the weekend. Being able to chat again even when we are in our beds and feeling sleepy and to talk until your eyelids get so heavy that they closed. I am thankful of my friends,my family, the food i can eat and everything i have. I dont get to say this everyday but yes I am thankful.
Yup, its inevitable to be sad at times. But like what Grace said, you need enough sorrows to make you human. The most important thing is to grow and get over it.
I haven been blogging for quite some time cos i've been busy.Muahaha, finally busy eh.Busy playing my game lo, finally im level 10x now lehs. I shant tell you the digit of the "x" but it is NOT a zero! Wakaka. But i haven been able to level up these few days cos the server now is lagged like mad. = =
OKies...what else ne? Oh ya, forget to mention my good friend, math, everyday do abit lo, since i got tuition teacher now. =)hehes. So next year must be prepared to KO math. Oh! And ASEAN stuff is finally coming back...it's haunting me again~ I think sometimes i really get too easily stressed cos nothing has been happening so far. Never mind, i feel stress for the future then next year will be 英英美黛子jor.Haha.
What else, yes, karen is in Shanghai now and im not sure whether she'll come up here. I dont miss you leh, wakaka, but i am really really looking forward to you coming to my house. =)
And then there's this Hong Kong drama named 唐心風暴 tat's really nice. You guys should go catch it, but i guess many of you should have finished it by now.haha. There's this song named "My love will get you home" by Christine Glass tat's very nice. Here's the lyrics, but must watch with the show then nice la. =)
If you wander off too far, my love will get you home. If you follow the wrong star, my love will get you home. If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone, get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home. Boy, my love will get you home.
If the bright lights blinds your eyes, my love will get you home. If your troubles break your stride, my love will get you home. If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone, get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home. Boy, my love will get you home.
If you ever feel ashamed, my love will get you home. When there's only you to blame, my love will get you home. If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone, get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home. Boy, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone, get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home. Boy, my love will get you home, Boy, my love will get you home.
And if you find "wuhu" familiar it's because it's from 不良笑花, it is quite a stupid show la, with xiaohua being so ahlian but then quite funny as well. hahaha. I guess stupid stuff make me laugh more easily, lols. Then my dad dont allow me to watch le, cos he say the content very idiotic. :( Nvm, 我偷偷看.haha XD
Yay, finally our class events are realising!~ Im looking forward to class BBQ and the Proj. Peh, wateva it is. Painting lehs!~=)
That's all for now. I like the rain man, especially when im at home=) Take care guys.
The reason for no posts recently here is because almost most nights i've been playing RAN. The GM has been opening x3 or x2 exp time so lvling has been much easier. Hoho. Oh abit more about 亂 since its the only online game tat i love to play. Archer ID, very good student, no ks, no zp, currently level 96...gonna pia 97.^-^
It was nice to have my old friends coming by last week. Hehe. Although we were a bit lag, it was quite nice that we had a chat. I love nice chats.=)
Alot of them are going thru an important period where many important decisions have to be made. WOahhh...i think i would be very stressed then. Next year after my A'levels..it's gonna be crazy.
Needa start something soon...life's short, dont waste it.
Im staying at home, doing things that i dont really like to do or i have no choice but to do it. Daily schedule is like around the same:
Do MATH. Stupid math, im stuck at question 3 now and question 4 half way thru. Play ONLINE GAMES. Playing RAN online specifically, which i play when im so bored and i hate lvling. But its still a time killer=)
That's what's happening recently...But later sanba is coming and shijie, chongwee, robot, shumei,ahhui, yenhui..++..are coming!~yeah...hehe=D

Today tuotuo and wanying finally managed to come to my house. Its wanying's first time to my house and tuotuo's second time...fond memories lehz. Anyway i was busy packing my room for the morning and i watched naruto with onikku also...i din noe naruto was that nice...very exciting. Then managed to watch an episode of SUPERNATURAL~Hee hee. My whole afternoon was basically at home lo. Listening to nice music with dad then read whatever i felt like reading...幸福=)
Then in the evening went to receive tuotuo they all...glad to see her again=) So now they're in my room preparing to go to bed cos tmr we have to 一路向北, go KL. Ok...something to look forward again but i hope its not too rush.
And i haven started on my homework yet.
That's all for today. Nites to me and morning to you=)
Hi hi...finally i can blog again! Im at home now cos i moved out of the hostel already. That means i'll only go back around next year la. But then, if there's a need for me to come out i'll still do so la. My house very near only what. hehe. Anyway, i haven been blogging for the past few days but lotsa interesting things happened! Ok..let's start from today=)
OK so this morning i woke up very early at 730, considering that there was no school stuff. So i decided i should go shoot baskets and buy breakfast on the way. Then something very stupid happened. Cos i wanted to spend all my coins so i took like 2 dollar change out. The i went to buy bread to eat before going to the court. And the cashier took a v long time to count and i was thinking, why so long huh, 2 bucks only, then hahahah, i only had 1.50. LOL. My math really fail la. Mrs Chang will be v sad. I cant even count 2 dollars properly. So too bad i din have breakfast then i went to shoot baskets. I realise i can only shoot accurately within the 罚球线( im not sure what's tat in English). But then my arm din allow me to play for long so one hour plus i went back to oack my stuff and seal everything properly in my room so that i can leave straight in the evening.
And after that i finally had our PW outing! But the only pity is that geneve din go la. She had to go out with her parents or something. Maybe Plaza Singapura aint the place for gen cos last time when we went there to play Daytona she wasnt there also. LOL. So we had lunch at Ajisen Ramen. OMG, the Volcano Ramen is damn nice! Hot and spicy you noe...so too all those hot and spicy fans out there, volcano ramen is the right bowl for YOU!! (this is not an advertisement)And im very proud of myself cos i finish the bowl this time round=)Alright, so after that we went to pool. Im super bad at it but its fun to see and play with them la. I always play ady then forget everything de so too bad. But weiliang, yixiu and ben foo they are quite good esp ben foo's hit damn strong. Haha. He must be very 得意。Then after that we went for more food! The taiwanese ice shop at the basement of PS is super nice! I finally gotta taste it again. HOHO...must try if you go there next time=) So after that i had to rush off cos i had some matters on and i need to move stuff out of the hostel as well, so that's the end of my outing with
my war mates.
Ok..now im gonna start back tracking. For the past few days ive been busy with Xperience. After the island wide fund raising there was the volunteering sessions at Autism Youth Centre(AYC). So i was there for the first day and i was attached to this kid called Yan Hui. He's around our age but bcos of autism he cant really communicate well with people around him. But trust me they're all lovable people. The way they smile makes you know that their smile and laughter is genuine. Maybe its just bcos they see the world around them differently so that makes us hard to understand them. Some of them like this guy called Wen Hao, are very talented in art and super meticulous. I'll post some pictures later so you can take alook at them. So what i did with Yan Hui for the first day was that we were planting bean sprouts and then we had them to design some stuff but bcos there was only one student and 4 volunteers for our class the pace was quite fast so we ended up drawing stuff together. haha. The drawings all very cute. Meng Die and I drew then he followed. Very cute. haha. Then on the last day, that means thursday, we were suppose to bring the kids out for a picnic excursion in Labrador Park la, but then the "poor weather condition" made it impossible. It was very depressing when one of the kids, Ee Neng actually tried to say "outing..outing...". Then Javier said he was calling me "auntie auntie"...hahaha until Eva said he is saying "outing isit?"..then he said "park".. We wanna bring them out but then the rain...it just din stop and it was indeed very sad to disappoint the kids. They dont really get to go "gaigai" often so its really a pity. I hope maybe next week or something we can make it up for them. And maybe i'll end up going to Hougang, a place which ive never been if not bcos of Xperience more often so that i can go visit the kids. Hahaha.
Well. Xperience was indeed a very fruitful experience, yes Li mei=) and it was really a good chance for me to know more of the people in our cohort which i previously din noe. And most importantly, it made it stronger and clearer to me that there is a need for the strong to help the weak and that people like us, healthy, blessed and wealthy in all areas of life (at least oppurtunities are opened to us), to be thankful for what we have and to contribute back to the society. My mom always told me that you need to at least need to have the ability to support yourself before you help people, anyone. Very true. So that means i'll need to work hard.Haha. Thank you to all of you in Xperience and thank you li mei for the sharing we had on our way home. It was a meaningful chat that made me reflect quite alot=)
And then the very nice thing that happened this week was that Sanba finally came out this week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OMG...hahaha. Rare right. I was very happy to meet her at Buona Vista mrt and then i got the chance to bring her around my school. I dunno why i just felt very happy about being able to bring her to my school in Singapore. Then we went to island creamery for ice cream. Cos ive been telling her for ages how awesome the ice cream was there and she insisted that we go. I had nutella and "very berry", both were superb. She had black forest and cookies and cream. I like the black forest! And we managed to take a pic and paste it ourselves onto the wall. Now i finally have my photo on Island Creamery's wall! haha. im gonna go back and check time to time and have nice dessert at the same time=) After that we went for food spree at Joo Chiat there. The dumpling is serious good stuff! Its called Shanghai 人家. Its so nice that i even took a photo of it. LOL.Haa. Food was nice, i mean food IS nice. Im a serious food lover...gosh=)
Then for the next day i went for inline skating with my sis in East Coast Park. Dad dropped us at some place ulu so we had to do some walking before we reach the place.The walk was serene and very breezy. The sun and the trees made it even nicer. I din noe ECP was that nice.Haha, next time will go more often. Then we rented the skates for like 10 bucks each and we carried the skates to this place where beginners are suppose to learn skating. I couldnt skate there cos i dunno how to skate. Haha. Its quite weird that i can at least skate on ice but not land. But they say its the same so maybe that means i cant skate on ice anymore.Haha. Wait i shouldnt haha cos its not a good thing. LOL. So it was quite disastrous cos i din noe how to skate and there was NO teacher. The falls werent as bad as those on ice cos u have gear to cushion but then i kept on having this vision tat i'll have a twisted ankle and my foot will some how turn 180 deg.LOL. Very scary indeed.Haha.
Alrighty right, that's all for now...this is a super long post if im not wrong so if u din miss a single word/ paragraph..a round of applause*!=D Enjoy your holidays and im looking forward to a lunch or even a Kbox outing with Yaya, Lyon and Ting next week + a visit from Karen to my house in Msia SOON ( right???). Woah...good times leh and sweet dreams 大家。
Misc: One day i said 晚安 to my roommate Ying Xue. Then she said, do you know what 晚安 means? You say that to me everyday but do u noe the true meaning?
I was quite surprise like maybe there's some legend behind "wan an"..hehe.
Then Ying Xue said, you're telling me "我愛你,愛你"( wo ai ni ai ni).
WAN AN----Wo Ai Ni Ai Ni( in case you're slow,hehe)
I was just telling someone the other day, how life has changed over such a short period of time.
To begin writing about this is hard, because to be honest, I don’t know where to begin. I stopped myself from writing here then, and I’m going to ask myself to write something here again now.
There is a need to pause and let the mind ponder how it feels and what it wants. Penning these thoughts in words helps, for me at least. So maybe you can try this someday too.
The last few years were definitely within my formative years. How so? Because it was the age where you really start to learn to appreciate the world around you. By that, I literally mean the world.
That was the time when you truly understand how important it is to you that you have people, no matter good or bad, for better or worse, who will stand by you always. I ever wondered about a question, should you appreciate those who love you no matter what you are, and this love of theirs will continue from the moment you’re born till they cease to exist; or those who love you because of what you are and what you do?
I won’t say the so called “answer” here since answers aren’t always out there huh?
That was the time when I found out how wonderful it was to be in love and that it was so powerful that it commanded your everyday life; and that everything seemed so blissful that you were afraid to say it loud because fate might get jealous and turn all you had into bubbles of illusion. That was also the time when you felt that love could give you such strength that you could let go of everything rationale that you once held in mind and allowed irrationality to sit in because you knew that there weren’t even consequences to worry about.
That was also the time when you learnt how to love someone; realizing and knowing someone you were once part of would be better off without you; And that this was more important than a part of you being ripped off, be it in the most violent or gentle manner; bloody or bloodless. How letting go of what may seem the most precious thing to you then was necessary because it was suppose to heal your wounds and make your heart stronger; How sadness could go beyond words and made you into a zombie that walked the everyday streets of the living earth, where even the magnificent sky you have always adored or the most beautiful melody you have ever heard could not intrigued you in the slightest way.
That was the time when you understood “you” more. How stubborn you could be and how reckless and selfish you could go. Because you wanted a so called reply, an answer, you tried your best extort it, callously. You bruise yourself along the way and hurt the people whom you dear. That was too the time where you realize that for some things no matter how hard you try, it just doesn’t turn out the way it should and you realize how hard it is to learn to stop so that the damage you will do is minimal.
That was the time when you learnt to make your face a mask, a mask that hides the pain, a pain that eats the heart, a heart that nobody will know.
That was the time when you discovered how lonely the yellow street lights can be and that the once lovely gibbous moon that hung in the sky can seem so sad that it made you cry. It was then that you realized how frightening love can be when the silence of the long dark nights you had to go through after it left was nothing compared to it. It was then that you realized that just the thought of a mere name could make the heart hurt so much that nothing you know of in this world could make it stop.
That was the time when you come to understand that there exists things that only you yourself achieve and that no one could save you from the mess you were in. You’re the only one in the universe that can make things right in your world. And so then was the time where you literally learnt how to pick yourself up again and tell yourself confidently that everything will be fine.
That was the time when you sought after His help and guidance the most; the moment of truth where you tried to understand and understood the things that were happening around you. You were taught that the thought that you were the only one who could achieve things was too arrogant. He found you through his mysterious ways and you were shown how far faith in Him could bring you.
That was the time you learnt how to share; and that saying out what you feel doesn’t make you weak but stronger than ever, because then you know you’re not alone. And you know that even what may seem the quietest days of your life, aren’t those that are filled with solitude as there will always be someone there for you, if you would just bother to open your eyes.
That was the time when you looked at the sky with the same amount of fondness you once had and knew that everything is fine.
You now understand that the world goes on, so will life on it, no matter what happens. And that you keep pace with the world with your best to move on so that you know that every breath you take in is human and is real. You realize that after all that you’ve been through, nothing has really changed. The people who love you are still here and that those whom you love are as good as ever. The people whom you once love are still part of you despite their departure and that these memories, good or bad, are precious. The world that He made is as beautiful as it still makes you gaze in awe and that even the most little things in life still intrigue you in their own way.
I've been listening to this song by Bruce Springsteen lately and I love it. So here's the great song that I would like to share with you guys. Enjoy!
I come from down in the valley where mister when you're young They bring you up to do like your daddy done Me and Mary we met in high school when she was just seventeen We'd ride out of that valley down to where the fields were green We'd go down to the river And into the river we'd dive Oh down to the river we'd ride
Then I got Mary pregnant and man that was all she wrote And for my nineteenth birthday I got a union card and a wedding coat We went down to the courthouseand the judge put it all to rest No wedding day smiles no walk down the aisle No flowers no wedding dress That night we went down to the river And into the river we'd dive Oh down to the river we did ride
I got a job working construction for the Johnstown Company But lately there ain't been much work on account of the economy Now all them things that seemed so important Well mister they vanished right into the air Now I just act like I don't remember Mary acts like she don't care
But I remember us riding in my brother's car Her body tan and wet down at the reservoir At night on them banks I'd lie awake And pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take
Now those memories come back to haunt me they haunt me like a curse Is a dream a lie if it don't come true Or is it something worse that sends me down to the river though I know the river is dry
That sends me down to the river tonight Down to the rivermy baby and I Oh down to the river we ride
I cant fall asleep. Maybe it's because the usual habit of sleeping late, or im too excited, about? haha, that'll be a secret for now, maybe i dont even have an answer to that. To think about it, my usual timing to sleep around 9pm during Junior High days was kinda crazy. Well, instead of taking out something to study, i've decided to post something here which i have not for a long time.
Many things have happened since i last posted something here, which is impossible for me to pen or rather type down here. But this week was a super crazy week for some of us. 8 A levels papers a roll in 5 days. Yup, and we knocked them down, or maybe vice versa, which i hope not. haha.
No stars or moon tonight, guess it's been a cloudy day, with the rain and stuff. I din get to study much today, yea...the slacking me is coming around again. But i'll shoo it away tomorrow. Im starting to miss school. I think it's gonna get worse as 2009 ends. Im gonna miss life in the hostel as well, that's gonna sound ironic to some of you cos I used to dread life there. I feel like attending lectures, going to boring tutorials, sitting to the usual faces. AND i want PE classes! It's really my favourite lesson. The relief that you get from the end of a long boring lecture or lesson is just awesome, I really like the feeling that when everyone is into this together, haha, everyone's here for the lecture, and it's interesting to hear them talk about it afterwards. Not to mention the part where you chiong (or rather only some of us, okay, maybe only me) to the canteen for food... haha.
It's just too bad that we have to end our last year in this place with this hectic examination schedule.
Yup, and i'll miss hanging out in special places in school. School <3
It's been a super long and ardous week and the week has not ended yet. This is so not cool. But maybe im just in a not-feel-like-studying-mood, haha so tadah! Im here typing an entry!
It's raining outside now and im super excited. It's nice to have it pouring outside and yourself listening to your favourite music on your warm and cosy bed! Hehe. Wah, so that's the reason why i like rainy days? Hee maybe.
And I have NOT been online for so long my mailbox kinda just exploded cos of the facebook emails. But that's better than real long emails (official ones to be specific), cos you can just deleteeeee everything.
I did the thing that my history teacher, Ms Krishnan, told us to do. Write all your targets and paste it everywhere. Haha. It's kinda crazy and i think it helps abit, cos when you feel like slacking, that piece of paper will just remind you that "hey get going!"
OK,im going off and i miss Gringo! And the song that's getting me high now is SNOW by R.H.C.P~ (maybe it'll have the same effect on you too) but it's not snowing now, IT'S RAINING!~ HAHA
I think this is my first time posting something like a class photo here. Don't think it has everyone here, but yea, this is most of the people in them :)
OK, today is my last day at home for the June holidays and also for June 2009. For the darlings in my house i shall post something for them, since it's been quite some time since i last talked about them here.
So the few weeks at home, other than being able to spend more time with my folks, i also spent much with Dooku, Gringo, Dongdong, and Intan ( german shephard, but the only female around.haha, so she's the only princess). I really enjoyed the time with them, although you cant have 4 of them together, because the three princes are super aggressive, or rather both Gringo and Dongz dislike Dooku. I dunno why, but that's the way it is. Everytime they meet right, they'll just start eyeballing each other and GROWLING and showing their pearly white teeth, seriously it's damnnnnnnn scary.
Haha, okay so the routine usually, i "train" Gringo before lunch. Training meaning the basics-sit, down, stay, up, come, heel. And he LOVES playing with Tug-o-war. So yea, basically it would lotsa fun, sometimes excluding the training part cause he can get really annoying by ignoring you. But play time is good. He really focuses. You may be asking, why Gringo, haha i dunno, 比较投缘吧 and dad trains the rest of em. The rest are awesome kids also. Dooku is a real charmer, Intan just loves to stick to you and Dongz gets crazy when you splash water.
Anyway back to the routine. And here comes the most fun part of my day (cause after a day of studying this is what i look forward to most, lols), i get to bring them out to gaigai in the evening! haha. Yes, Gaigai is totally the word. And i have to say Dooku hops like a kangaroo( that was random). Usually it's late evening cause we dont leash them, that means they run wild, but actually only Dooku runs wildly, so we dont want times where people are usually busier. Haha, though picking up shit is quite a hassle, especially when you cant find it at night, it's quite fun and I love to see them running here and there, and them being busybodies sniffing around.
Okay, good news is cause it's my Last Day (at home for June2009), my dad has kindly agreed to let Dooku sleep in my room tonight=) Hehe. Only Dooku and Dongz are suitable to stay in the house cause Gringo will pee and Intan will bite stuff. So yea, Dooku gets to sleep in tonight.
Alrighty, end of story, i'll upload the pics and that's it=)
I din get to blog about the NTUMUN that i went for my weekends. It was quite interesting actually although i was quite bored for some hours. But to see them quarrel diplomatically is truly an eye opener. im not being racist but the indians are seriously good. i like the China delegate from my council because he has sense in his talking yet he's so funny...super. If u were there you would know what i mean. Anyway, my council ( Security Council ) was termed as the most interesting councils of the whole MUN. So honoured. Lols. The food there wasnt as good and i think raffles serves nicest food so far. haha cream puffs!<3 But at the last day of the MUN i got qutie pekcek cos i missed my curfew and i had to wait for the 20min thanking speech to end and waited for dunno how long to get my COP which ended up to be a wrong one. WTH right...oh bother! I shant think about it. Anyway my partner, Jeric, ended up to be a nice guy and it was quite fun crapping with him when we had nothing to do. And as usual met quite a lot of new ppl but i doubt we can keep in touch. Lol. Cos i cant even keep in touch with my ex-classmates, not to say people i met in my MUN. Quite sad huh. Ok so here are some pics...
Delegates..in chaos( the one raising the hand is the China delegate that is so funny!)
Yup..burkina faso,heard of it? It's in west africa.
My fellow delegate from the Philippines-Jeric=)
Haha..i cant help it but to take a pic for this watermelon pig.
me and my angel and the pig
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY everyone...it's gonna end soon.
Haven gotten the chance to come up here although there were plenty of times i wanted to do so. As usual, lotsa things happened and i dont even have the time to record them down or to share them here.
Ok, i'll talk about today then. Today, our whole family went out to Singapore for Vday because of lucky onikku. So here's another story, she was listening to 933 on thurs or wed night then she happened to just sms in for fun for the "情人节祝语", so she tot of Lu Wen's words :你喜欢的我都喜欢,因为我最喜欢的人是你;你害怕的我都不怕,因为我最想保护的人是你。ok...it's kinda rou ma, budden since Chong Qing and Wei Bin liked it i guess it's one of the better smses. Lols. So she won 2 tickets for the Singapore Flyer Vday package thingy. Too bad she doesnt have a bf and so she decided to let our folks go er ren shi jie. So cute huh. Anw Lu Wen was super happy to hear that her "ming yan" got chosen...hahaha. Ok so while we waited for them (we had about 1h30min although the ride is only like 30min)we went to Marina Square to shop! Woohoo! It's been quite some time since we last get to go gaigai together loh. And i think we're SUPER efficient when we shop together w/o anyone else cos we all had quite some 收获. So today was super fun...hehe. Budden i still have to finish the ASEAN summaries package to send Yifan asap. ok i think im quite better off compared to other ppl liao, so no more from me=)
And the angel and mortal game in my school finally came to an end. My mortal is...Mantha (tadah!) and my zhutou angel is actually Mian Mian...omg right...hahaha, i din expect my angel to be her. Because she was so lame before the day and wrote me a "note" literally on the postcard, i was so lamed out that i made her a watermelon PIG..wakakaka. But it's quite cute la, i wonder if she cut it and eat it so soon. Ok and im very proud of myself cos i finally managed to fool my 1st mortal by not exposing my angelic identity...ahahahah, so MANTHA..ure my first victim ok...=D And im glad that both of them are happy on Vday, at least from what they look like i think they are. Haha. And i refuse to use "friendship day", cos it's just too lame. Valentine is a nice name, like Vincent Valentine...cool.
I finally am in my home sweet home this weekend! It's been like 2 weeks...so long. I am very happy to be at home and to be able to sleep on my bed. Sleeping at home is just different la and i get to eat at home! That's the best man. I just keep on eating, haha.And it's good that i get to chat with daddy and mommy after 2 weeks cos i dun see them and im always very tired when i call them. School life is just hectic. BUT i'll enjoy it!=) And oh oh i got to talk to Sanba also, i had quite a good chat with her. Opened my mind in some sense also. So now im thinking quite often, which means i'll stone!hahaha. And Gringo and Dooku! Finally! Gringo grows damn fast and he's fat now, when i say fat it just means he's more plump but he's still ok and Dooku is the ever slim one. Although kena quite a few attacks but it's quite lovely to spend a few hours with them because it's just so rare. Hah..i love home.
ok...it's getting late and im getting sleepy. I get a feeling im just gonna conk off. Although i still wanna be on the phone budden it's just too hard when im at home. Lols. Good night!=)
haha alliance between Bennu and Drakon k..call it BenKon or DraNu..lol!

Finally im back in my home sweet home. And that means i get the chance to blog! haha. Doesnt mean that if im not at home i dun get to blog but its just that i can do it in a more relax manner. This past one and a half week has been SUPER DUPER crazy for me. Lotsa things happened, so soon that i cant even have the chance to blog about it. But the main thing that i just returned from was SENIOR HIGH ORIENTATION 2009! I have lotsa photos here but i think im just gonna upload some. OKok... the people in B8 ( my OG group) are ( in no particular order):
Pui Mun: the super high and energetic one...always tryin to untie my shoe laces..haha, but she's good at it. And i've learnt how to evade your attack now! haha=)
Xun Lin: the one that super on. Always very cool..u noe like chill...then she has a good appetite that means your metabolic rate is high! haha
Li Qin: Haha...the cute girl that doesnt look like a JC1 girl to me..seriously. but that means..you look young!

Bowen: The guy with 5000bucks in his ATM! Next time you give treat ok...MUST..hehe..adn ure smiley face is quite cute.haha.
And also! my partner Benjamin Foo aka Benfoo! A BIG thank you all very much and i enjoyed orientation very much..this is not 客套话ok...haha=) Let's stay in touch then someday we can do cheers together again. haha=D
Then not to forget the year 6s, we have faith, who went off half way as SM, cos she was damn bored, im sorry. Next we got Geoffrey and SamC who also went off as SMs, then Mian Mian who had to chiong her research paper..So basically thruout the 5 days mainly the 11 year 5s stayed. They're all super high people la, everytime i wanna do Anggonggong/Bennu/Pipipi cheer right they'll just support me. haha...screaming and shouting to your heart's content...although im like black and red now ( kinda terrible), it was worth it! haha~
There are too many activities ady...but waterfesta was quite fun. Cos they was water and water makes people happy. But our group din get to play water polo which was quite sad..it sounds fun. Haha and then cluedo right..should be fun also budden i was dying half way so i thought even if something really went pass i wouldnt realise. Then the funny thing is that cos i was stoning everywhere we went, the other OGs thought i was one of the scarers then kept on shining their lightsticks at me...-_- so for that night i only slept for 3 hours. The night was suppose to be even scarier accordin to the SCs but the weird thing was that the lights in our school couldn't be switched off so everything was brightly lit...not very scary...but kinda freaky when i heard that. Then the last night we had in school was finale night, we were told that we have to end early cos we kena alot of complains from the residents...haha. Finale night got mass dance performance + games + dance competition. Very cool. I was entertained and i believe everyone was. The games were very funny, cos they involved guys and girls so they had to do quite embarassing stuff to win the game. Then the mass dance part right, Jovi from Homa owned everyone la seriously. His actions for the dance are super duper funny. Steffi junyang benfoo and me couldnt stop the laffing like mad. So everything ended smoothly on friday which was yesterday, felt kinda sad cos that means no more orientation and no more holiday mood for me and back to reality where i got school stuff + ISAC stuff + ASEAN stuff...not that i dislike school, its just that this year is like the last year and i kinda have mixed feelings. I love Dunman High <3!
Ok..and then i must talk about the Grease musical that i went to with my mom and sis...its by the ITE kids and they were superb! Now all the songs are like stuck in my head...haha. And i just rewatched Grease...haha..i'll post more on it later on. like the songs tat are nice..they're gay and happy songs.so you'll definitely feel happy after listening to it...HIGH!=)
Here I am back again..just went out to buy some stuff and brought Dooku out for a walk. He's damn strong, especially when he sees things that interest him like other dogs, people, toads, and stuff that moves around. haha...he's quite adventurous and that's good and i like his character! Though mom doesnt really like it but today he's gonna sleeping beside me, yay!
OK...that's all for now,im sleepy again..today ive been sleeping alot and by that it mean A LOT=)
nites.
Grease musical @ ITE college east ( lovely campus!)
I have decided to blog again. Thought that my blog would be very kelian if i din post something before 2008 ends.
Time really flies and now 2008 is flying away too.
I've noticed people around me have been upset or sad nowadays. Although Im not the one going thru all those sadness, to see a friend upset is quite dreadful at times. That's why Like what Karen said, some things may not seem helpful to you but continue doing it, because it makes a difference. I'll be praying. I want you all to be happy as well!=)
Its been great to be able to have karen in my house for the weekend. Being able to chat again even when we are in our beds and feeling sleepy and to talk until your eyelids get so heavy that they closed. I am thankful of my friends,my family, the food i can eat and everything i have. I dont get to say this everyday but yes I am thankful.
Yup, its inevitable to be sad at times. But like what Grace said, you need enough sorrows to make you human. The most important thing is to grow and get over it.
I haven been blogging for quite some time cos i've been busy.Muahaha, finally busy eh.Busy playing my game lo, finally im level 10x now lehs. I shant tell you the digit of the "x" but it is NOT a zero! Wakaka. But i haven been able to level up these few days cos the server now is lagged like mad. = =
OKies...what else ne? Oh ya, forget to mention my good friend, math, everyday do abit lo, since i got tuition teacher now. =)hehes. So next year must be prepared to KO math. Oh! And ASEAN stuff is finally coming back...it's haunting me again~ I think sometimes i really get too easily stressed cos nothing has been happening so far. Never mind, i feel stress for the future then next year will be 英英美黛子jor.Haha.
What else, yes, karen is in Shanghai now and im not sure whether she'll come up here. I dont miss you leh, wakaka, but i am really really looking forward to you coming to my house. =)
And then there's this Hong Kong drama named 唐心風暴 tat's really nice. You guys should go catch it, but i guess many of you should have finished it by now.haha. There's this song named "My love will get you home" by Christine Glass tat's very nice. Here's the lyrics, but must watch with the show then nice la. =)
If you wander off too far, my love will get you home. If you follow the wrong star, my love will get you home. If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone, get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home. Boy, my love will get you home.
If the bright lights blinds your eyes, my love will get you home. If your troubles break your stride, my love will get you home. If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone, get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home. Boy, my love will get you home.
If you ever feel ashamed, my love will get you home. When there's only you to blame, my love will get you home. If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone, get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home. Boy, my love will get you home.

And if you find "wuhu" familiar it's because it's from 不良笑花, it is quite a stupid show la, with xiaohua being so ahlian but then quite funny as well. hahaha. I guess stupid stuff make me laugh more easily, lols. Then my dad dont allow me to watch le, cos he say the content very idiotic. :( Nvm, 我偷偷看.haha XD

The reason for no posts recently here is because almost most nights i've been playing RAN. The GM has been opening x3 or x2 exp time so lvling has been much easier. Hoho. Oh abit more about 亂 since its the only online game tat i love to play. Archer ID, very good student, no ks, no zp, currently level 96...gonna pia 97.^-^
It was nice to have my old friends coming by last week. Hehe. Although we were a bit lag, it was quite nice that we had a chat. I love nice chats.=)
Alot of them are going thru an important period where many important decisions have to be made. WOahhh...i think i would be very stressed then. Next year after my A'levels..it's gonna be crazy.
Needa start something soon...life's short, dont waste it.
Im staying at home, doing things that i dont really like to do or i have no choice but to do it. Daily schedule is like around the same:
Do MATH. Stupid math, im stuck at question 3 now and question 4 half way thru. Play ONLINE GAMES. Playing RAN online specifically, which i play when im so bored and i hate lvling. But its still a time killer=)

Anyway i was busy packing my room for the morning and i watched naruto with onikku also...i din noe naruto was that nice...very exciting. Then managed to watch an episode of SUPERNATURAL~Hee hee. My whole afternoon was basically at home lo. Listening to nice music with dad then read whatever i felt like reading...幸福=)

And i haven started on my homework yet.
That's all for today. Nites to me and morning to you=)
Hi hi...finally i can blog again! Im at home now cos i moved out of the hostel already. That means i'll only go back around next year la. But then, if there's a need for me to come out i'll still do so la. My house very near only what. hehe. Anyway, i haven been blogging for the past few days but lotsa interesting things happened! Ok..let's start from today=)
OK so this morning i woke up very early at 730, considering that there was no school stuff. So i decided i should go shoot baskets and buy breakfast on the way. Then something very stupid happened. Cos i wanted to spend all my coins so i took like 2 dollar change out. The i went to buy bread to eat before going to the court. And the cashier took a v long time to count and i was thinking, why so long huh, 2 bucks only, then hahahah, i only had 1.50. LOL. My math really fail la. Mrs Chang will be v sad. I cant even count 2 dollars properly. So too bad i din have breakfast then i went to shoot baskets. I realise i can only shoot accurately within the 罚球线( im not sure what's tat in English). But then my arm din allow me to play for long so one hour plus i went back to oack my stuff and seal everything properly in my room so that i can leave straight in the evening.
And after that i finally had our PW outing! But the only pity is that geneve din go la. She had to go out with her parents or something. Maybe Plaza Singapura aint the place for gen cos last time when we went there to play Daytona she wasnt there also. LOL. So we had lunch at Ajisen Ramen. OMG, the Volcano Ramen is damn nice! Hot and spicy you noe...so too all those hot and spicy fans out there, volcano ramen is the right bowl for YOU!! (this is not an advertisement)And im very proud of myself cos i finish the bowl this time round=)Alright, so after that we went to pool. Im super bad at it but its fun to see and play with them la. I always play ady then forget everything de so too bad. But weiliang, yixiu and ben foo they are quite good esp ben foo's hit damn strong. Haha. He must be very 得意。Then after that we went for more food! The taiwanese ice shop at the basement of PS is super nice! I finally gotta taste it again. HOHO...must try if you go there next time=) So after that i had to rush off cos i had some matters on and i need to move stuff out of the hostel as well, so that's the end of my outing with
my war mates.
Ok..now im gonna start back tracking. For the past few days ive been busy with Xperience. After the island wide fund raising there was the volunteering sessions at Autism Youth Centre(AYC). So i was there for the first day and i was attached to this kid called Yan Hui. He's around our age but bcos of autism he cant really communicate well with people around him. But trust me they're all lovable people. The way they smile makes you know that their smile and laughter is genuine. Maybe its just bcos they see the world around them differently so that makes us hard to understand them. Some of them like this guy called Wen Hao, are very talented in art and super meticulous. I'll post some pictures later so you can take alook at them. So what i did with Yan Hui for the first day was that we were planting bean sprouts and then we had them to design some stuff but bcos there was only one student and 4 volunteers for our class the pace was quite fast so we ended up drawing stuff together. haha. The drawings all very cute. Meng Die and I drew then he followed. Very cute. haha. Then on the last day, that means thursday, we were suppose to bring the kids out for a picnic excursion in Labrador Park la, but then the "poor weather condition" made it impossible. It was very depressing when one of the kids, Ee Neng actually tried to say "outing..outing...". Then Javier said he was calling me "auntie auntie"...hahaha until Eva said he is saying "outing isit?"..then he said "park".. We wanna bring them out but then the rain...it just din stop and it was indeed very sad to disappoint the kids. They dont really get to go "gaigai" often so its really a pity. I hope maybe next week or something we can make it up for them. And maybe i'll end up going to Hougang, a place which ive never been if not bcos of Xperience more often so that i can go visit the kids. Hahaha.
Well. Xperience was indeed a very fruitful experience, yes Li mei=) and it was really a good chance for me to know more of the people in our cohort which i previously din noe. And most importantly, it made it stronger and clearer to me that there is a need for the strong to help the weak and that people like us, healthy, blessed and wealthy in all areas of life (at least oppurtunities are opened to us), to be thankful for what we have and to contribute back to the society. My mom always told me that you need to at least need to have the ability to support yourself before you help people, anyone. Very true. So that means i'll need to work hard.Haha. Thank you to all of you in Xperience and thank you li mei for the sharing we had on our way home. It was a meaningful chat that made me reflect quite alot=)
And then the very nice thing that happened this week was that Sanba finally came out this week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OMG...hahaha. Rare right. I was very happy to meet her at Buona Vista mrt and then i got the chance to bring her around my school. I dunno why i just felt very happy about being able to bring her to my school in Singapore. Then we went to island creamery for ice cream. Cos ive been telling her for ages how awesome the ice cream was there and she insisted that we go. I had nutella and "very berry", both were superb. She had black forest and cookies and cream. I like the black forest! And we managed to take a pic and paste it ourselves onto the wall. Now i finally have my photo on Island Creamery's wall! haha. im gonna go back and check time to time and have nice dessert at the same time=) After that we went for food spree at Joo Chiat there. The dumpling is serious good stuff! Its called Shanghai 人家. Its so nice that i even took a photo of it. LOL.Haa. Food was nice, i mean food IS nice. Im a serious food lover...gosh=)
Then for the next day i went for inline skating with my sis in East Coast Park. Dad dropped us at some place ulu so we had to do some walking before we reach the place.The walk was serene and very breezy. The sun and the trees made it even nicer. I din noe ECP was that nice.Haha, next time will go more often. Then we rented the skates for like 10 bucks each and we carried the skates to this place where beginners are suppose to learn skating. I couldnt skate there cos i dunno how to skate. Haha. Its quite weird that i can at least skate on ice but not land. But they say its the same so maybe that means i cant skate on ice anymore.Haha. Wait i shouldnt haha cos its not a good thing. LOL. So it was quite disastrous cos i din noe how to skate and there was NO teacher. The falls werent as bad as those on ice cos u have gear to cushion but then i kept on having this vision tat i'll have a twisted ankle and my foot will some how turn 180 deg.LOL. Very scary indeed.Haha.
Alrighty right, that's all for now...this is a super long post if im not wrong so if u din miss a single word/ paragraph..a round of applause*!=D Enjoy your holidays and im looking forward to a lunch or even a Kbox outing with Yaya, Lyon and Ting next week + a visit from Karen to my house in Msia SOON ( right???). Woah...good times leh and sweet dreams 大家。
Misc: One day i said 晚安 to my roommate Ying Xue. Then she said, do you know what 晚安 means? You say that to me everyday but do u noe the true meaning?
I was quite surprise like maybe there's some legend behind "wan an"..hehe.
Then Ying Xue said, you're telling me "我愛你,愛你"( wo ai ni ai ni).
WAN AN----Wo Ai Ni Ai Ni( in case you're slow,hehe)
