hallo

just want to say that i'm extremely thankful for my brother. he always seems to find a way to let me know i matter to him despite his hectic schedule. sometimes i feel like he's treating me like a spoilt daughter. although it was just a small message i appreciate your offer. i know you have to take it off your own expenditure. you're not that smelly, dirty and irritating anymore.

and my mother, oh man. i never realised she could be so HAPPENING! i was studying in the dining hall yesterday when it suddenly hit me that i was the only loner there amidst a sea of brad-angelina wannabes. seriously, i almost spit my cookie crisp out when i saw this one guy reach out and tug his girl's nose rather violently. then this other couple plopped down behind me and started watching sappy korean dramas,accompanied with extra sound effects, courtesy of the girl who just wouldn't stop giggling. like, HEEEHEEEHEEHEE. even i don't giggle like that! i felt rather dejected, as koko krunch was my only companion, and i totally don't dig dating little brown animals. so i told my mom and she said: if you're bored, go and eavesdrop lah! i was so amused that i didn't reply and around two hours later, she msged me again: shan you there? i'm worried that those lovebirds hammer you for eavesdropping! hahaha that message made me laugh, which yea made me stand out even more, laughing at myself, but haha, i'm glad i have comic relief like this to rely on when i'm stressed.

i'm quite tired now. and well disappointed with a couple of things. but all in all, i think i'm OKAY. pray for me for promos, k. i put in quite a bit of effort and it would really break my heart if i find out i've endangered my scholarship. all the best to my friends out there- cher, corr, marianne, chang. catch up after. till then!

pissed

first elica told me to wash my hair everyday, so i scrubbed and washed and conditioned it everyday after school. then all my hair started dropping.
then puiyee and chinghui told me to wash my feet when i bathe, so yesterday i bent over and spent thirty second scrubbing each foot with soap. then when i put my feet back on the floor i slipped and landed butt first. wahlau it was damn embarrasing and painful lah. i'm getting old and my bones are starting to creak.
haha i'm kidding but seriously ah. you guys don't know how tiring and painful it is to be clean. but im clean okay. don't get the wrong idea.

halooooo

hallo everybody. i read my previous post five mins ago and laughed.don't know if that's good or bad. i think i'ld make a good psychiatrist you know. spreading love to everybody. whoopee!

GUYS. guess what i saw today. it has a white beard, four feet and hair. YEAP- a goat! on TV lah. i saw it sneezing. i didn't know goats could sneeze? do you think fishes can sneeze? and then on my way back i saw a little boy's bike swerve and he fell into the drain. haha then he began this banshee-like wail. poor kid. reminds me of the time the roti man behind my house knocked ME into the drain when i was in kindergarten. quite painful you know.

long live gollum and the goats! actually now that i think about it. gollum does look like a goat. eh?

btw, to any odacer seeing this. OMG the odac tagboard is DAMN DAMN funny. seriously. whenever i read it i start laughing like mad. you guys are so random and lame and ego(dennis) and sweet! and well. stupid. hahahaha to quote anonymous, you guys are COOL! see ya round.

happy mugging day

well today was fun shit! went to school to study with mu and jen:) you guys rock lah! we had soo much fun studying, laughing our guts out and doing silly things. and most importantly, we got work done. aint that great? OH! and there was good food too! at estivo, gelato plus chicken burger= great food! i swear i had the bestest company and food and productiveness today in school! where NO ONE's around and you get the feeling of owning the school! heh. i love jen and mu lots! my studybuddies with our study table by the dessert stall! hoho! hopefully this hard work will pay off in the end. one more week till all hell breaks loose.
yet, family time today was well spent in clarke quay, my new favourite hang out. that place is so full of good food and life that i just look forward to spending every single weekend there! happened to chance upon singapore's national bike fest. ooh boy was it something! sooo many motorcycles were on display and it made me wanna grab one and run off! the harleys were looking good and i picked out two of my fav :) the bmws are so spacious! they're huge! on top of that, we found a great morrocon restaurant! cool beans:) the food there was spectacular! unlike anything i've ever tasted before! it was money and time well spent, i say! but i'm really tired now! must've spent at least 3 hours there! but it's alright, i'm loving it! i'll post the pics of the bikes and food up some other time! :)
for now, it's time to hit the books once again just before hitting the sack. so many things to complete, so little time. i pray that god will guide me through this. to all out there studying for promos, all the best! we'll all pull through together! take care and have a wonderful weekend. hello shan :D

helluva week

well, this week has certainly been one helluva week, despite the stresses of the upcoming promos. i guess the promos have helped me appreciate every single thing, no matter how small. strange how these feelings come at such weird moments! i've learnt to appreciate the people around me! spending the most trying times with people have certainly brought us closer, even though it has made us crazier. so thanks to all who've been studying with me! mu, zee, jen :) you three have been constantly been with me studying and i must say it has been productive! let's keep this up for the upcoming week k? and to train together as well! not forgetting with mao mao :) thanks to lyn greg zw jo belly and of course dear sasha :) you guys have been great study buddies :)
ah, of course, silly moments are always present! as i've mentioned, simple joys is all it takes to make me happy. 2 clearly memorable events this week! (besides training which has made me feel oh so good! :))
firstly, gp! haha gp never fails to amuse me cos i've got sucha fantabulous group who never fails to crack me up whenever we have group work! always doing the most ridiculous things! i swear we're a huge disruption to the class!

haha yep that's us :) in our diamond shape formation cos we just had to stand out and be silly! but fun nonetheless :) thanks chriselle karen and tk for making my mondays less dull :)

secondly, tiff and stella never fail to make my grey day joyful! they always amuse me with their little cravings and to pass the craze on to me! our latest craze is milo dinosaur! omg! haha! we made our own version of it with the help of the school's milo and tiff's milo powder! haha! and it tasted real good, despite getting weird stares and looks of amusement and disbelief from many people. haha. and stella insisted that her milo powder tasted better! haha! too bad i didn't get to drink hers today cos i had econs during lunch. bahh! hopefully i'll get one on monday :) oh well, more milo dinosaur!

a rather unglam shot of the delicious milo dinosaur which i made on my own :) thanks so much tiff and stella for making my day so interesting! :) love you guys to bits! youtube marathon and prata eating after promos! :) gelare gelare gelare!

so that was my week. spending time in school to train and study with ruggers, spending quality time with stella tiff and sasa :) i wish for this promo madness to end quick so i can do all the stuff i want to!! gahh! right now i guess it's back to books and econs :( goodbye. take care all and study hard! have a good weekend

lagging comp!!

kat: yea kikilala!! and i tried leaving a message for you on ure blog but i can't seem to cause im not a member or sth? haha all the best! oh and cheers to pip and estella!
huihui and marianne: omg u guys like gollum? serious ah. oh dear.. i have nth to say. hahaha.

life's getting more tolerable. ah, yes. a lot more. i actually mastered the art of not falling asleep after school. that's a good thing. uh-huh. i kind of feel detached from the girls now though. im not doing it on purpose,but i feel like i have to force myself in and im really mentally too tired to do that, and i don't want to butt in and go, what what what!! cause im really blur with whats going on now.but i guess things will get better. soon.maybe after promos.

on a lighter note, ah i know now. that mere daydreams can come true. the incident will be staying in my brain for a long,long,LONG time.

i wonder if miss carol will see this. cause if she sees this,ill whack her cause she's supposed to be STUDYING. anw. carol carol i hope you're doing good. i really do. haven't forgotten you! anw just wanted to say that you're one of the few reasons why im really sad the year twos are leaving. all the very best!

OH YARRR. and ytd i was quite happy. cause i was in some s and t centre for bio and as usual my eyelids felt super heavy and i thought ild like take a short nap. so i stuffed my head into this little drawer in front of me so mr foo wouldn't see me. or he'ld like, think i'm reading the notes. but anyway when i wanted to take my head out it got stuck. i had to like navigate my head carefully to the corner of the drawer and tug it out. yea it's funny lah but it shows that ive been studying, and my brain's been expanding! serious! ill stuff my head in again one week after promos. i bet you it'll come out as easy as one two three!

hallloo

random pic. took it during the family tree carnival. haha had a good time that day. anyway, i just thought this was a good picture. :)

GOLLUM. that's his name. came to me during bio today.

sth else came to me today when i was thinking bout lit. see, this guy called pip, he's the main character in the novel, great expectations.and we're exploring how all that he's been put through in his childhood influenced his life, and his outlook on it.then i started thinking about myself. when i was in malaysia, i was one of those nerdy geeks with saliva-drippin',meat-fillin' braces, huge round spectacles and two friends. and i never went out. and i had exactly three kikilala t shirts, and two pairs of shorts in my cupboard. i remember that i gave two hoots about my future. my biggest worry was probably like, the decision between which kikilala shirt was the least geeky to be worn on a class outing.

then i came here and POOF! i became koko crunch! nah im being stupid. i came here and i got a lot more open and well,slightly more confident. and i know what i want myself to be like in ten years, and im hell bent on working towards it. made a whole lot of new friends, priceless friends actually, that have helped mould me into the person i am today.mmmmm-hmmmmmm. and im proud to announce that i no longer have kikilala shirts in my possesion. WHOOHOO! ohwell. have a good week, all. :)

boooossshhh

i hate pw. really. i think i'm the stupidest person on earth when it comes to pw. can you believe that i've never done an EOM before? im doing it now. and i think it's such an awful waste of time. i mean. i could be doing like, math or sth right now. and omg i think my hair is thinning and depleting at a rate of what, 35strands/sec! oh dear. i should have heeded all the warnings about the dangers of gorging two packets of kimchi noodles a day. and some ppl told me it's cause my hair is long, and so it's heavy, and so it exerts ermmsh weight on my scalp which causes my hair to drop. whatever it is i'm so cutting my hair soon. maybe after promos cause i have no time now. but i think i'm gonna hack it a lot shorter and cut some fringe to prevent a receding hairline. but the fringe must be above my eyes cause i don't like hair falling into my eyes. disturbs my vision.yeah. i think i might end up looking shit. but i dont care. save the hair!

i wonder what that disgusting thing in lord of the rings did when he discovered he was balding. you know, that creature who used to own the ring. but i guess he had like other more serious problems, you know, he had to save the ring and hop around random mountains. but wahlau if i were him i'ld go to a hair salon first before charging after the ring. but then again i think he couldn't be bothered. or maybe he was wearing a really lousy wig. yeah.ohwell.

long long time

hallo i've been mia. anyway it's been a very nice week. yeah stressful and all that but it's been so so peaceful! wake up, eat, study, sleep, stone. i mean, i could really get used to this uncomplicated lifestyle. love it! nothing to bother me and nothing to upset me. i just feel extremely guilty cause i've been spending a lot on food. argghhh can't resist i always feel so hungry when i'm stressed. and the past few nights i've been running to east coast. (elizabeth gave me that idea) and i tell you i really love those runs! they're so diff from the training runs! i just run at my own pace, and enjoy the breeze, the view, the scent of burnt chicken wings.. beautiful. seriously i love my life this week. it's weird cause i've been alone most of the time, and i think i talk to an average of two humans a day, if u include the guy who takes my food orders. but i must say this again. it's so so peaceful, relaxing, and delightful. hope u guys are coping well with promo stress. :)

stressedd!

promos are in 2 weeks and i'm less than prepared. it sucks that holidays in jc are all spent for studying. there was june and now, september. what a life! oh well. i guess we all just have to live with it.
on a lighter note, there's definitely something to look forward to as a form of stress relief: miss swan. i swear she's hilarious. retarded, but funny nonetheless. i recommend that all should watch miss swan! thanks for introducing her to me stellamon :)
alright, it's time i hit the books yet again! take care all and study hard!

mugging

even though the holidays are here, it's anything but the holidays for me, spending my time locked up in my room trying to study. i think i'm going bonkers from the stress. sigh. i want this all to end! yet the end is still far far away. oh well. perseverence is key. finally got to catch up with people this weekend :) people i haven't seen or spoken to in ages. good feeling :) it's great catching up!
alright, i guess i should go hit the books now, or i'd be lagging yet again. roar. i have a sudden urge to listen to opera music. i have no idea why. goodbye world, il divo, here i come! take care all and study hard!

i'd just like to dedicate this to chang (even though i doubt you'll read it)
hey you. i know you're feeling uber stressed right now but don't forget i'm always here for you no matter what. please feel free to unload off me and there's no need to apologise for anything! you've been a wonderful friend :) love you!
