exams

i love ironing. no matter how crumpled your clothes are, you can just straighten it all out within a few minutes. i love how my uniform looks so neat and pressed after i iron it. how i wish everything else could be that simple. to just iron out all the things bugging us.

exams are nearly over. im just left with malay. well i think bio lit and gp were my best papers. it's so weird cause math and chem were my best subjects. but anyway it's over and done with. bye bye H3s.

im so BLAH now. im afraid ill get affected by it again now that exams are off my mind. sometimes i wonder why i landed myself in the same situation i was facing last year. im so stupid. but there are some things in it that are worthwhile. like the feeling of gliding through the wind or the feeling of satisfaction upon completing a fast run.

im really really glad i saw angel in school today. totally made my day :)

if only i could iron it all out. i would :)

it's finally over!

well, the dreaded cts are finally over and i'm much relieved, although the cts weren't great and i really hope i pass! all those nights of mugging and late night sleeping have not really paid off but oh well. now that it's past, i shall move on.
today was such a great day, minus the physics, cos i spent time with both classes. although the time spent with s12 wasn't a lot, it really was meaningful in its own way. the highlight of the day was spending time with the s15 people and sasha :) it's really been awhile since we've spent time together and i guess it's due to the stress of the jc life. and it was good just hanging out and fooling around once again :) it reminded me of first three months but it was better than that cos we're much tighter now :) these are the people that have really helped me settle down in nj and i'm glad for them. we've been through much together and i hope that never changes!
now that the stress is momentarily gone, i can't wait for the weekend :) catching up with my girlies :) i absolutely cannot wait! sadly, school starts agian on wednesday so nothing much can be done. but nevertheless, i will make use of every opportunity. i realised that my life seems to be empty without ij. i guess separation is tough and never easy. even though my nj friends are great, they can never replace ij. i'm trying hard to keep in touch but sometimes we're all just so caught up with our lives. i wish to be part of their lives still, i miss those times but i know everything happens for a reason.
alright, with that said and done, i'm off to watch project runway! take care all and all the best for those who still have papers! hang in there!

do you find yourself staring into space for hours?

do you get momentary headaches when you see a pile of midyear papers on your desk?

do you toss and turn in bed at night, worrying about the thousands of things you have yet to study?

WELCOME TO THE CLUB!!
haha it's been a hell of a week. i got much more studying in than i did the weeks before, but somehow i dun think it's enough. feel somewhat unprepared. but it's very comforting to see everyone else struggle. haha and my roommate plays some warrior princess game on her laptop 24/7. either she's got brains the size of a watermelon or she's decided to settle for the dreaded Es and Fs. hey frankly ild welcome a D grade. bio chem and math are ok cause i studied but LIT oh LIT.. ive been neglecting you!!

kayaks been slightly better. im still super stressed over it but last training made me somewhat happier. i hope we stay that way and improve!

sometimes i wonder what it would be like to have everything go the way i want. to sleep in peace at night. to love every part of my life. sigh. nowadays it seems like the only times when i am happy and contented are during my meals. a big thank you to mr king for the mushroom swiss i had tonight. ohwell, people. have a nice life :) if things suck, im sure they'll work out sooner or later. i mean, they better or else!

hallo

hmmm me and some of the girls in my grp. thats DISHA beside me!!!!
my group at some random stairwell at NUS. SG 22!
us again at the steps at PGP before gg for our last parallel presentation!

yeap those were the photos from pre u sem. i think there are some more but i have yet to find the person holding the camera. it was a great 5 days. met some ppl who eventually became my good friends! AMANDA MARIAM TESSA DISHA BERNICE. yeap i actually have a photo with all of us girls but its in my phone. sheesh! anyway it was a good experience. what i loved most was prob the life! runing around at night,hanging out at the TV room, gasping over the food at georgie's mart,gobbling the waffles from the campus foodcourt, grumbling over the fruits prices,hanging out at each other's rooms,ahh. i miss it all! esp you girls :)

ytd was a good day. for once i actually didn't feel stressed out during kayak. partnered yi again and we had quite an interesting time ytd. felt that we were alot faster and i felt like i was a little stronger cause i could pull harder for a longer time before switching phases. anyway i also had a poseidon-like adventure. capsized during a race cause of the strong wind and we were stranded for super long! had to be saved twice by a dragon boat. thanks, tp dragon boaters :)

studies a little better. im actually studying. like WOW man. but im worried. ah owell WHO ISNT! feeling lazy and guilty now. oh and thanks to my brother and carol for helping me out with my work ytd.

ARGHHHHH oh no i can't get it off my mind!

good afternoon! well, it's yet another day in not-so-sunny seattle and i've just come back from discovering a new part of town. it's strange, there are so many people everywhere even though it's a work day. we visited the first starbucks shop today and i must say the mocha frapuccino tastes absolutely delicious and it's finger licking good! :) starbucks, how i love thee! i also got a chance to see some really splendid chocolate. there's this shop here that sells a WHOLE apple dipped in chocolate! with m&ms, chocolate chips, you name it, they have it! whoa! i got to try a bit and it was definitely heavenly! but i can't imagine eating the whole thing at one go. i think i'd puke! well, it's the last day here and frankly, i'm glad to be going home tomorrow. not that seattle's bad or anything, but i really have to start some serious mugging, cos i'm very unproductive here, only managing to do some light work. oh well. shall leave that for later then. right now, shall go watch the re play of brazil's match. they're doing fantastic btw :) go brazil! :):) awesome!
have a wonderful week all! and don't forget to wake up early to watch the world cup! :)

america!

well, i'm still in the US and i'm quite happy here. the trip's been great so far. shopping, sight seeing and eating has been good, although i'm not too keen on the meats around here. but other than that, everything's been great. my mum caught the virus though, vomitting and diarrhoea. i'm quite worried about her, but she's much better now. i caught a milder version of the virus too, abdominal pains, nausea has been disgusting, it kinda prevented me from enjoying the day tour. oh well. thank god that lasted only for a day or so.
so what has america been like? everything as expected. great shopping, lotsa food, interesting characters here and there, good deserts too! well, i guess this trip has taught me one thing, i'm blessed to be living in singapore, where there are no car races at night, good & cheap food. but i guess seattle's special in its own way and i'm glad to be here! well, i'd better get back to watching law and order now, should be going for dinner soon! so take care everyone and have a good week ahead! :)

oh happy day!

people who read my depressing entry,please ignore it and don't ever mention it to me. i was just feeling shitty this morning and after being cooped up in the room for so long my mind was bound to go haywire. im not like the happiest girl on earth now or anything but im feeling alot alot better now,well emotionally and physically. managed to read some bio and im relieved for that. anyway i should go now and read more bio. see you guys around.

love heals all wounds!

it was supposed to be a bad day today- to cut a long story short, things just didn't go my way and i felt like i had made a huge mistake-i had given so much and got so little back. dashed back to hostel before i felt any worse and while i was reflecting in my bed i fell fast asleep.

when i woke up my throat felt awful and my head hurt like hell. feeling woozy, i called my dad to pick me up. so my parents brought me to my brother's place. within and hour i was in bed feeling the lousy germs having some sort of party in my body! whatever it was they were doing i really didnt like it! but something happened that made me so happy!

my parents found me lying in bed, shivering like an eskimo without those thick clothing shit. my dad immediately hollered "buy 100+!" and sprinted to the nearest minimart to purchase two cans of 100+ - the lime flavoured and the normal flavoured ones. he said sth abt wanting me to tell him if the lime was nice. *sheepish* haha. then my mom popped some lozenges into my mouth and flung a wet towel on my forehead. then my dad barged into the room, nudged my mother away and started shoving slices of watermelon down my throat. weak as i was i could hardly contain my laughter. furious at being overthrown, my mom returned 5 mins later with a bigger bowl of watermelons, and more lozenges. upon replacing the towel on my head for the 100th time, she then proposed to spread hazeline snow all over me. don't ask me why- im still wondering too! feeling a little dizzy now but i feel much better.felt so loved then.

mama,papa i love you.

ill update abt pre-u sem tmr or sth. it was a blast- five days of pure fun and happiness. takecare everyone, my dad's screaming for me. something abt eating more watermelons. :p

huihui, yes its two ppl!!hahahaha. eh good seeing you that day. takecare ah. have fun at OT. wish i could be there with u guys. love.
