innocence - avril lavigne

yay i love this song by avril lavigne. duno what's the "yay" for, but feel like typing a "yay" to start things up. haha really got to like it from Perth. i put my Creative to shuffle and yet i hear this song every day.

anyway. point of today's entry was to share more about the Perth getaway, which I'm going into after sharing a super dumb incident that happened to me earlier.

went to the library as planned after breakfast. did some snooping on the net last night, and targeted some books and pinpointed their location. went to the library with a goal and an end in mind. i think I'm too efficient. i only spent like half an hour to 45mins combing the entire teens fiction section for my books. got like 7 books on hand and i was ready to go. then guess what? i realised i had left the house stupidly without bringing my library card out. so noob please. but just to clear things up, incidents like that do not happen much to me. i repeat, do not. they just do, say once in a blue moon. rang mummy dearest up, and thank god she was able to save me from my pitiful sorry plight. waited patiently for my saviour to arrive for say near an hour, and meantime, i spent the time reading no wait, finishing a book. she came and we left. haha

i think i better do it in point form, if not this entry would be super duper long.

Day 1 (22)
-on board SQ 223
-there were so many choices to choose from, hsm2 (hahaha), hairspray, transformers, stardust, i now pronounce you chuck and larry and etc
-caught license to wed and the ending of stardust again, cos it was sweeet
-checked in Citigate
-mmm. the hotel we resided in bkk was more nicely furnished and spacious
-free to roam around after checking in
-checked out an italian restaurant, and damn the food was gooood. esp the cream spaghetti and the stove-baked hawaiian-alike flavoured pizza. freakingg niccee

Day 2 (23)
-visited Raeburn Fruit Orchard
-Farm Stay at Spring Hill
-given a mini tour on the farm
-got to watch a live show of "wool-ing" of the sheep
i think i prefer my dolly the sheep with wool. it seemed quite harsh to shave off their only protection from the cold, leaving them to fend for themselves
-fed goats
-fished
-petted chicken
-played with Ollie the collie
sounds funny. haha
-saw a combined harvester with my own eyes!

Day 3 (24)
-breakfasted at farm then bade farewell ):
in no particular order; visited
-Swan Valley chocolate outlet where they sell super expensive chocolates. but i had say, a free scoops of free samples. aiya the ugly sg-an in me lah hahaha. they had some interesting prints on tee shirts which i was oh-so-tempted-but-can't-bring-myself-to-ask-my-parents-to-get-it-for-me. ):
-Houghton winery for wine tasting
-Caversham wildlife park, where i petted a koala, attempted to feed kangaroos.
okay, at this point, i feel compelled to share the kangaroo feeding experience. i grabbed a handful of feeds and approached the kangaroos. they had 2 species there, the white and the normal one. haha anyway. i was scared, frightened or whatever you say, like mad, cos i was afraid they would box me or just deliver a punch or kick to me with their powerful muscular arms, legs, and tail. i think they could smell the sweat off my hand. haha so it sorta ruined their lunch snack. so frustrating cos on one hand i really wanted them to feed from my hand like they did to WJ!!! but on the other, i was terrified. i threw the unfed feed on the ground in a moment of desperation and resignation. haha which i came to regret later cos the donkey there feed on the same feed.

Day 4 (25)
-visited Perth Mint
-witnessed the gold pouring demonstration. ultimate coolness.
-found a cute machine that weighs your worth literally. i was worth, 1.7million odd. hahahaha anyway your worth is relative to your weight. so if you're heavier, you'll worth more. lol
-visited some nature parks and memorial places which were really food to the soul. the sights were so amazing. simply, beautiful.
-shopped at Habour Town
HT is a terrific place to shop. it's like a shopping haven by itself, with diners around, toilets located every corner.

Day 5 (26)
-visited the Pinnacles, it's amazing how nature evolves with time. and more amazing what nature can do.
-and sand dunes
-tried sand boarding, which was fun fun and fun. it was difficult trying to recover though. hard work!

Day 6 (27)
-time to go home ):
-checked out and left the luggage at the concierge while we went for more shopping.
-went to this duno-where within walking distance of Citigate which sorta resembles Robinson's or Metro in SG. got my polo tee there then we set off for Habour Town again. Levi's was still having its 50%. muahahah got myself another Levi's and other clothes from there. Had subway for lunch. hahaha i still prefer SG's to Australia's. had Gelare for dessert. hahah yes fat i know. sinful i know! but oh-so-tempting, how to resist! they had the tuesday special as well. so yup, end up indulging in a chocolate ice cream on waffle. hahaha its something about chocolate that makes people happy. happy happy. so yay! there's something about retail therapy as well that creates wonder. hahaha happy happy happy.
-went back on SQ 226. sorry to say out loud, 226 has poor-er facilities than 223. I'm comparing relative. so, yeah. only caught snippets of Superbad (only the last 15mins of the ending in fact) and Daddy's Day Care from the middle. and the remote control doesn't allow me to skip parts! so irritating.

writing in point form allows me to rip things out from the itinerary and my diary without working too much brain cells trying to recall what happen. haha anyway, yeah, that's about it. toodles. i need to get back to my books. dun get me wrong. my library books i mean. haha

wake-up call - maroon 5

Hey hey! Hahahaha actually I've been back, say 24hrs ago. didn't get access to the com, nor the laptop cos stupid WJ was hogging it and sis wasn't back home. i think blogger is siao sometimes. I for one, had to refresh the page so many times, logging in, typing my email and password.

didn't go for training today cos i had jet lag. haha felt super guilty plus the lack for exercise (unless you count walking to and fro, back and forth North Bridge as exercise) for the past 1 week; 7 days, I made myself head down to the gym. surprised to see another nyjcian there. tsk actually i dun like to see pple familiar around my private sanctuary. but hey the gym was public property. sianess. had the feeling of being watched the whole time, eeyucks. Actually i only stayed for an hour. Lol. my stamina sucks like crap. man. high time since i get myself whipped into shape. wait, that sounds a teeny weeny bit of weird, dun ya think? anyway. watched PCD search just now. and yes! sisely went out! woohoo! about time. anyway i alrdy know who's gonna be the next PCD, since i caught the last episode coincidentally in Perth. the last 3 standing were quite a weird combi- Asia, Melissa R and Chelsea. Asia emerged as the next PCD. man. whywhywhy. Melissa R is so much hotter! and she doesn't have issues! that's the thing with Hollywood.

anyway. had a nice time in Perth. xcept for the bugging flies that come into your face every now and then, even after you swat them away for the countless times. and the strange thing is, these flies dun bite, they just like to stay in your face, irritating the crap out of you. the weather was fineeee. a pity i didn't get a tan as i hoped i would have gotten. nice sights and all. i wanna go Perth again when I'm of legal age to drink!!!! that fortunately isn't too far ahead in the distant future. so yeah baby! the pubs/clubs there look so cooool.

bought some clothes back! a Billabong long sleeved shirt, a white/gray polo tee, Levi's, Nike jacket and some other thing which i can't seem to recall. total coolness. their malls close at 5pm -.- daily xcept for the special day once a week, when they close at 9pm. had subway there as well. and i think SG's better.

farmstay was particularly memorable as agnes and wanxin had said it would be. i petted a chicken! anyway the owner of the farm was named Robin i think, she has a superuber cute collie as a farm dog, named Ollie.

sadly. almost every day, i woke up to a constant dreadful reminder that, I'm gonna leave Perth for SG soon. a pity i couldn't stay longer. sighs. but i heard the students there deal drugs. so SG is definitely a safer and conducive environment. we went to Perth with 3 luggages and went back to SG with 7. LOL

ahh shall talk more abt Perth in another entry. its 250am and my bed is beckoning me. being a goody good kid, i think I'm going to the library tmr! okay it was more of a I'm-going-to-be-bored-at-home-and-the-library-sounds-fun kinda thing, i admit. haha

ohhhh. most impt thing. no strike that. second impt thing. i feel like a grownup for the first time since yesterday. as a matter of fact, as I've alrdy announced the departure of my previous maid, i did household chores starting from yesterday! so proud of myself. hahaha first time in my 17 years of sweet, comfort, luxurious life, i had to do it myself. but i think its quite fun. hahaha anyway its not something that i would admit to my mom, since she'll prolly exploit me into doing more. hahaha, i dun mind since I'm having hols now and have quite some time on my hands. but its not really fair, since I'm the only filial one around helping her in the meantime, while stupid WJ plays the com, craps on the phone. anyway, i think a temporary maid is coming in tmr. yay! haha i think my hands had gotten rough from all the sweeping, washing, cleaning etc. hahahahhahah

another thing. a guy - kevin, god-knows-who-he-is, called me on my cell today while i was absorbed in my story book. he said he had a job for me. lol i didn't even apply for any in the first place, and have definitely not thought of getting one this hol. of my many to-do list, getting a job is not even on the last thing to accomplish. and siao he asked me to drop by the office somewhere near Eunos MRT to hear more abt my new job this friday. crazy. later he turn out to be some evil guy in disguise. like I'm that naive. after some time spent on fu-yan him, i asked how he got my number and particulars. he claimed(?) to have gotten it from some survey i did, and that i was chosen. wow. um, am i supposed to be flattered and jump at this offer of a job? fghfghfgh

okay. its 309am now. peace out!

i dun wanna miss a thing - aerosmith

yay! my last post before Perth.

will be MIA from 22-27 nov.

miss me not people! hahahah

My maid just left. Sighs. she muttered sorries before she left, and hug us in turn. Why does this farewell not feel like the others? Man. Why do i feel a tinge of sadness and possibly guilt? ... ...

A chance coincidence turning out to be so much more.

Goodbye.

makes me wonder - maroon 5

training was alright yesterday. um, basically played monkey with the defenders. i think my stamina sucks big time. zzz after training was utmost fun. lunched at mos burger with agnes, cheryl, joy, sam, shumin, wanxin. they are srsly a fun lot of people. i can't imagine what would happen if we have a chalet or smth. (?) after that went to amk library with agnes and wanxin. man. the journey there was hilarious. it was drizzling, plus we didn't really know where we were going, so we had to asked a couple of people for directions. then the fun began. haha i think for the first hour or so, we went searching for books. then after that, we found a particularly interesting called ...puberty... under the reference section. lol picked up many fascinating facts which i shan't reveal. there we started doing sinful stuffs like abcdefgossipingxyz but mainly crapping. had actually intended to leave around 2 or 3plus, but by then we got our books, it was still raining cats and dogs outside. so we went back in to the children's corner. super entertaining. went around looking for the nick's animal facts. i think i never had so much fun in the library before. hahaha oh than we sat down somewhere and started exchanging notes and pointers about some people and some sensitive topics. haha ultimate entertainment. turns out both agnes and wanxin went to Perth before and pretty much agreed that the farm stay was the most memorable part. well, that's definitely something to look forward to. i still want to ride a horse! i think the next library trip won't be soon before long. hahaha

deep side

just did some snooping around for the hotel we'll be staying in Perth. wlau! contrasting comments, but mainly poor criticisms from the first page. man. i duno what to expect at this point since i didn't exactly bother to go through all the comments. some images of the hotel look pretty disappointing too, but I'm not going to be superficial and judge a book by its cover. i, for one, should know that because nearly half the books I've read, didn't really have intriguing covers. in fact, they were tattered, some torn, some folded. what happened to the tiny note by the library book that says "I'm just a library book. do not yada yada yada me". obviously ignored. anyway, we'll (more of I'm haha)not going to talk about courtesy or consideration today. main point, what i found out about the hotel - Citigate Perth (formerly "Grand Chancellor Perth"). overall a 3.0 on a scale of 5.

Located in the "West End" of the CBD, Citigate Perth is within easy reach of everything Perth has to offer. 707 Wellington Street Perth WA 6000 to be exact. um, i would be the judge of that in time to come.

Things To Do
A short stroll will lead you right to the heart of the City, with its vibrant malls and shopping areas. We are close to Northbridge with its exciting night life and just a few minutes drive from magnificent Kings Park
yay this i look forward to. haha

Picture Time!
since a picture tells a thousand words (why a thousand, not a hundred or a million, so interesting). haha
eeyucks i can't upload any photos. bummer. check here and here if you're interested or very bored under Candid traveler photos and more pictures respectively.

mmm so far, the pictures under the second here looks better than the first. so right now there are 3 possibilities (that i can think of at the moment),
1. wrong site; possible since the pictures look quite different
2. maybe they had a recent renovation job
3. perhaps this is it.

realised i sound pretty resigned with the 3rd option. haha
okay, from the 3 options you can see how desperate i am, 2/3 being on the positive note. but im really really not all that. the feelings inside have yet to reached that point yet, because im still very delighted, excited, thrilled and extremely pleased (my vocab is running short) that I'm going to Perth. how long has it been, since the last out-of-Asia trip? very very long. but but but i still must emphasize that the lodging helps to create a more fulfilled holiday. maybe its me and i know i shouldn't complain, grumble, whine or do stuffs along that line, but the lodging again i mention is oh-so-crucial please. half the reason why i enjoyed the bkk trip in June was because of the hotel. haha had nice, elegant, and spacious rooms, with satellite TV and trendy radio stations which me and my sis had used to the max. hahaha

okay. this is the end of my research. but it was nice doing it, despite the results i had. the first time is always the charm i guess. (?)

did i mention that I'll be going to a farmhouse to stay for 1 night (i think, i forgot). yay total coolness and yayness please. i really really look forward to seeing horses. it's something about them running free on green pastures that make me feel extremely at home and at peace. if i may, or if i might, i definitely want to ride a horse! the last time i had a horse so close was on a zoo excursion. i still have a vivid memory of a very young and naive me having a pony ride on a trip to the zoo. i think it was the p1 days.

can't wait to go!

oh shit. cant rmbr whether monday's training is in the morning or in the afternoon.

btw i made a new friend today. his name is toh jian wong. HAHAHA
long story. but i'll prolly share it here the next time i get bored.

fergilicious

no much particular link to this post im about to blog. haha

training was alright today. did mostly the same stuffs we did on monday, dodges squareball and medicine balls and some courtwork practice until it started to rain. some nearby childcare centre brought their kids along for some outdoor activities and spotted some cuties around. lol ah the childhood days, fond memories, wild innocence, sadly all in the past. played asshole daidee for a short while after training and i think lady luck is smiling on me. didnt get much of a chance of being asshole, while agnes had a couple. hahaha went for dinner with chin ping, cheng en, cheryl, chuyan, joy, shumin and weiling at sumo house, some where in amk. anyway the food there isnt really nice, it made my throat itchy. wrong timing. just when im all ready and good to go, not that i've started packing my luggage, i think you get my drift. went for a little walking after dinner and soon found ourselves at ntuc hahaha. wasnt it pretty clear how we were aimlessly walking. haha

damn i think i'll just order the 5th and 6th sequel of vampire beach at amazon next year and start my collection early.

things to do when i wake up later;
1. print out the multiple holiday assignments online
2. pack my overlying lecture notes

yup. thats basically my entire plan for the whole day. can you tell im trying hard not to be an overachiever. hahaha

get up - ciara

lol. finished eating my breakfast not long ago, after waking up from my nap. dun get me wrong, i didnt pon school, i just came home after the 1hour econs lecture. funny they decided to implement this new taking attendance taking thing, by scanning ezlink card. haha so timely. the last day of school, okay technically last day of the holiday lectures. yay! finally it's starting to feel like a holiday. cant wait till next thurs when i set off for perth. yayness! totally. going for training soon. toodles for now!

btw. i'll like to thank the following people (again);
jesselyn, jieying, joyce, joshua, meiping, nigel, quanhao and tzehui for the jacket and the lunch gathering which was a little of a pity because jesselyn and quanhao couldn't attend cos they were busy. (:
cherie and lishan for the roses and card. (:
cheryl and chuyan for the shoebag and cupcake. ((:
bestie, kayan, shuxin, theresa, winnie, yiling for the shoebag and the stuffs inside that left me speechless for a moment when i opened it and of cos the card. (:
my pw group members especially, chin teng, fiona and ruo yuan for the CARD with my fave characters in front, zac efron and vanessa hudgens and of cos the spongebob squarepants thingy. its just so sweet! ((:

my sexy sensational seventeen birthday!

YAY! yesterday had been lots of fun and surprises. where shld i start? so ya, finally 17 of age. not that it makes much difference, only 1 year older.

chuyan and cheryl were being extreme sweeties, surprising me at mac with a cupcake from Mrs Fields after we had our breakfast cum lunch. on the way there, i smelt smth fishy cos they weren't being their usual chatty self, somehow a bit twitchy like they were hiding something from me, but i didnt let my suspicions get it to my head. anyway, cheryl was the one who brought me out with the excuse that she wanted to get some bread so that chuyan could get the cupcake out and surprise me. i didn't think much about that, cos it was quite typical of cheryl to get her favourite food. lol i found myself pretty stumped when i saw the cupcake with the candle in it waiting for me when i got back. initially i blew off the candles without making the 3 wishes that comes along with it, then chuyan re-lighted it for me cos she insisted i make them. so funny please.

after that we got back to meet up with the tee shirts dealer in school. got everything pretty much settled, so we shld be getting our netball tees soon! yay! Agnes is a darn good bargainer.

just as we were about to get ready to set off for kallang for the friendlys, chenli decided to have a "team talk". before that, i was sort of sabo-ed to help filled up their bottles cos i was the birthday girl. anyway, i got back and got another surprise. they actually got a slice of cake there ambushed for me! hahaha then the birthday songs started and everyone got high. they set an impossible task for me, asking me to blow the candle off the ground when i was standing up. after several failed attempts, i decided to get closer. haha

the trip to kallang, was as usual, long and sleepy. it's almost becoming a routine to grab some sleep on the way there for most. mm had a few games with pjc and cbss. there's always something new, learning points that you can pick up from the game, with the different opponents. what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger!

played asshole daidee with agnes, joy, lanlin, lixiang, sam, shumin and wanxin. FINALLY! the tables were turned! hahahahaha asshole daidee is not only super entertaining but also a team bonding game. went off to kfc for dinner with chenli, cheryl, joy, shumin and rachel. my goodness. what an experience. rachel's words "you learn something new every day". LOL i think everybody had a good laugh. some guy from SC called when we were having dinner informing us about the ogl thingy. it was so hilarious. i received my call first, followed by joy. then chenli checked her phone. turned out she missed hers earlier. haha she got all agitated and desperate. haha despite us egging her to ring up her classmate in SC to ask about it, she refused. fortunately the person gave her another call after that.

took 31 back home. and another funny incident happened. there was this couple trying to make out at the 5-person seat at the corner, which was quite a private, dimly-lighted area until we came along. we happened to sit just in front of them, literally LOL-ing about some stuffs, not like we were trying to spoil their romantic setting and atmosphere. according to chenli, they were trying to give each other some love. she took out her mirror and started angling it so that she could catch the action without making it obvious she was watching them. in the end, she didn't manage to see cos cheryl and rachel was blocking her view. LOL

OH! forgot to mention earlier that, cherie and lishan passed me my first gift for the day - 3 pink roses plus a card! so sweet of them! ((: but i'm quite intrigued as to why 3 roses, cos we all know what 3 roses stand for. haha then i got graffiti on both of my arms, (no) thanks to winnie and shuxin. hahahah it was quite AA with the stuffs they wrote. but thanks anyway. it made my day more memorable. haha what was unfortunate about it was, it started smudging when we started our game. i think a few of my opponents have got literally a part of me on them. ya, speaking of them, one of them from pj had the same bdae as me. ...

anyway. time for the special thank-you roll. in order of time, hahaha ;

im not sure if i forgot any, cos my phone happened to have too much msges and i might have deleted some. there were some who wished me through the phone! so sweet. anyway, if you have taken a closer look, one would have noticed that at 0000 sharp, there were zilch msges coming in. hahaha coincidence? anyway, i think kelly made a new record of wishing me 4times happy bdae. hahaha

i think this is easily the best birthday i've had so far. thank goodness the old netball tradition of splashing water on birthday girls was not practise in nanyang. hahahah but it would have been fun nevertheless. um just so you know, im not actually inviting people to do that to me. so yup.

today. yup. gotten 2 more presents. decided to give maths lecture a miss when i reached school at 812. anyway there were so many people inside alrdy, i didnt want to make a scene. hahah sat outside and read my VAMPIRE BEACH book3. realised i wasnt the only one doing that, after seeing some familiar faces. haha after chem lecture, i was asked to get out of sight, cos they were wrapping my present. lol. headed over to j8's pizza hut for breakfast/lunch with BESTIE, shuxin, tingyong, winnie, yiling and yuda. and yay i got my book4 afterall! but !@#$% turns out VAMPIRE BEACH HAVE A TOTAL OF 6 SERIES. and the last 2 would only be out by 2008. MAN. what a bummer. and im already almost done with my book4 after sitting down reading it right after i reached home. tsk. dear alex duval, do you mind writing your books a little faster? i get impatient very easily and i'm not a fan of anticipation even though i ABSOLUTELY LOVE your books, the way you weave the characters into life.

yes. i forgot to mention how i really really like the birthday cards i've received this year. xxxx and! this year, my bdae celebration actually spreaded across 6days. hahaha longest ever! and the most memorable! this has got to be the longest entry ever, so far. I REALLY REALLY APPRECIATE THE THINGS EVERY ONE HAS DONE. keep up the good work! hahahahahaha

btw, dear teammates, if you happened to read this part, the cake was really really nice! thanks again! (: xoxo

for the love / gimme more

haha can't decide between the two titles cos both just stood out to me, screaming "USE ME USE ME" lol. not really funny, it wasn't really like that, but more of a, mm both having the ability to convey the mood I'm feeling right now.

Monday's training was AWESOME. trained with like less than a team for the first time, which was a little disappointing. started training with sprints; 8X4 in 30 secs. like wow. after that, no strike that, i think at the 5th, my legs already felt like lead, weighing me down. and after that, it felt like jelly. training was all about dodges. Let's hope we put that to good practice tomorrow. and yay we sort of finalise the designs for the netball tees already, so i reckon we'll get them in mm dec?

Next, can you believe it? In less than 5hours to go, I'LL BE LIKE SEVENTEEN? hahaha obvious much? LOL anyway heard from Regina that O's are technically over already. It's like the clock ticks faster every year. I still vividly remember taking my O's like a few days ago. And last year at this time, hahahah i think i was mugging for amaths paper which so coincidentally fall on HAHAHA MY 16TH BIRTHDAY! See! that's the thing with birthdays falling in mid November. it's always either in the holidays or during exam period. I still remember some he-whom-i-shan't-name skip me my birthday present in primary school. And I can quite confidently predict that next year at this time, I'll be mugging like who knows what.

just went to the online NLB catalogue to search for my VAMPIRE BEACH series book4. okay now i sound like some geek but I'm almost done with book3!!! and anticipation sucks. almost wanted to go bishan just now after getting pretty convinced that I'll miss What I Like About You on tv, but managed to switched on the tv on the dot. but today's episode was rather boring. a pity. should have gone to bishan instead. maybe book4 had been there in the afternoon, and now it's not. xx I think, some time in the future, when i have like spare bucks like really really spare, I'll buy myself a few series of the vampire/werewolf/fantasy that I've completed. that would be quite a SUPERDUPERUBERWOW feat to accomplish. but that would be in time to come, of course... I think I'll get there.

P.S. did i mention that i really really love my friends? and i really really like the jacket they got for me. thanks again! xoxo

drive

today has been a wonderful day. just had canadian pizza for dinner. i feel so blissed. satisfied but not too full. what a nice feeling. anyway, broke my previous record last night, stayed up till 0330 before i went to bed. wasnt sure what i was doing but whatever i did, it was legal i think. haha woke up at 1200 today. ate breakfast cum lunch then went to chinatown with my brother to meet up with dad and mom for swensen's icecream! muahaha they ordered a fondue for me and brother. mmmm yummy-licious (licks). shopped a little at og after settling the travel thingy. they got me another Levi's YAY. a skinny this time. haha my first skinny. lol anyway, im really looking forward to Perth. (((((: goodbye for now.

let it rain - jojo

double yay! maybe even triple. so like i said earlier, my birthday celebrations (officially) started today. btw i just finished my PROWLERS series. yay! it has got to be one of the most thrilling series i've ever read. embarking on VAMPIRE BEACH soon. okay, now that the days to school can actually be counted down using fingers, it is finally starting to feel like the holidays! i have big plans this hols. just hope procrastination would find a better victim and leave me alone.

just celebrated my birthday at home, with a big cake. it was some belgium choclate with rum. -.- and the staff didnt even mention it to either me or daddy when we bought the cake. nevertheless, it was still a nice one. but without the alcohol aftertaste, im pretty sure it would taste heavenly. yay! going for swensens ice cream tmr! so triple yay!

i think my maid is going back soon. so sad-ed. how can i live without a maid. zzz all my life, i cant even remember a year without a maid by my side. pampered much? okay not my fault since mummy needs domestic help at home. man. what a time. bummer.
maybe i'll try spreading my wings
and i'll learn how to fly,
i'll do what it takes,

Ahh i duno how to describe how i feel now. Just got back from my mini birthday celebration at Vines. I thought it was a simple affair, just lunch with Meiping and Tzehui. But they actually planned smth else! Opened the door to Vines to see a wonderful surprise! oh I love my friends! Jieying, Joyce, Joshua and Tzehui were waiting! I was like omg what are they doing here?! inside. But yeah. mmmm. Then after that, Meiping came with my birthday present, a jacket from Puma. Thanks a lot guys, really really like it a lot. ((((((((: Nigel was late despite living within walking distance of the diner. But wow la, didn't expect them to hold a mini party to celebrate my birthday. Okay, so my grand 17th birthday celebration starts today. hahahaha I still remember that I once told my primary school bestie, Jasmine that I wanted to celebrate my birthday for 1 week when I'm 18 and when I'm 21, I'll go for 1 month. Hahaha those days... Even though it was just a simple lunch, it really meant a lot. It's very heartwarming to see your close friends gathering together these days, when all of us went separate paths after O's. So
THANK YOU JIEYING, JOYCE, JOSHUA, MEIPING, NIGEL & TZEHUI FOR MAKING IT HAPPEN(ed).

Had wanted to blog a few days back but aiya hard to explain. the carnival at rgs was truly a learning experience. from the games we played, i think we're getting somewhere. it might seem only a baby step, but it's a step forward nonetheless. we had the momentum going in some games, but unfortunately the momentum didn't last. defenders really did a good job. woke up at an ungodly hour, 0530 to meet Cheryl and the bus stop opp school. mom had driven me there because 133 has yet to operate. it felt like night despite it being in the morning; the air, the atmosphere, the surroundings and the emptiness. anyway, Cheryl's dad end up driving us to rgs itself. so superduperuberultra nice! we reached rgs at 632 when we were meeting at 7. oh wells. played with 2 teams from rgs, rjc, jjc and vjc. saw some familiar faces. rgs has baseball as a cca la! so damn cool. reminds me of hsm2's i dun dance. haha after that, went for pepper lunch in town. walked a bit, then decided to go to Shumin's house for team bonding. Lol. her house is big. her brother who goes cool every now and then is super cute. played mahjong and asshole "daidee". it started okay until we played asshole daidee. wlau! Agnes and Chuyan was king and queen for so many turns while me and Shumin took turns to become vice asshole and asshole. LOL had lots of laughs, that at some point we all laughed till our stomachs hurt. now that we know where she stays, we can drop by often. hahaha on the way back home, Agnes challenged me to a game of golf. Unfortunately or fortunately, the bluetooth connection failed us both. end up palying solo games after which we compared the score. hahaha she won ultimately but no biggie. I'm going to have my re-challenge on monday. hahahha

I'm never alone, because I'VE GOT THEM. (: Netball, the team game.

at the beginning

hahaha
i just chanced upon a very hilarious website. okay i didn't exactly chance upon it. i had searched for something and it came out under one of the finds. www.bored.com it is quite obvious what i had searched for, isn't it? haha i feel so stupid. i seriously didn't know of such website until just. and i might just add it under favorites, for boredom's sake. hahaha
i find one part; dear john particularly entertaining. it helps generate break-up letters with some scenarios. but so funny la. here's a sample:

Dear (recipient),

I'm terribly sorry I had to do this through a letter, this . This note will be the last memory you'll ever have of me, . Don't let it get you all upset inside, It is because of your problems that keep me from being even remotely interested in continuing this relationship with you.

You'd be much better off finding a person that can deal with way you I might miss certain things about you such as the time you

I'm glad this is done and we're going separate directions for good. I think you'll find someone to And hopefully


hahahah
and you know what. this might even come in handy some day. LOL

genie in a bottle - christina aguilera

happy 101th post! Lol. totally forgot about yesterday being the 100th post while blogging.

anyway! Vanessa Hudgens is pretty much set for HSM3 even though they claimed that they are still in negotiations. this news has been everywhere, even yahoo. and that was yesterday's news. I knew from the start that the nude photos wouldn't harm her to the extent of causing her to lose the hsm3 deal. I mean, what is hsm without her and zac?

stayed till 2plus in the morning before i went to bed yesterday/today. caught Step Up again, this time on youtube. Surprisingly the person uploaded everything. it was quite smooth and without hiccups i must say. paid a little visit to bishan library after breakfast. did a little scooping last night to locate my PROWLERS series. and there they were, right in bishan. thank goodness i found my sequels. anyway, it pays to be task-oriented. I think i only spent 30 mins in the library itself. went for a swim in the evening. and surprisingly (my vocab is very limited. Lol) again, it wasn't much of a hassle as i thought it would be. it didn't take a lot of me to cover 30laps. well... ... its pretty clear where I'm driving my point to. hahah better not spell it out clear, in case some pple say i bhb. Lol

I just did some clearing up in my inbox. before: 120+ after:50+
it is just me or what?
it sums up to one word: wow
hahahahha

goodbye.
for.
now.

buy you a drink - t-pain

okay suddenly this title reminds me too much of facebook. (booze mail)

anyway.
woke up early and went to cut my hair. on the way there, mom "forced" me to take a detour to the chinatown temporary market. i dun really like markets, particularly the smell of it. somehow i feel its below me, not like i'm high and mighty. but aiya, i duno la. but i found something impressible in these people who work in the market.

met up with bestie sx and yl not long afterwards. felt super bad because i reached there like 45min later than the scheduled time, which has already been postponed half an hour because of me. Lol. i think we got all the stuffs we intended. arcade-ed a little. played the table football and the quite violent game with guns and the bishi bashi. walau super funny la particularly during the table football. we tried different pairings each time and i've reached a conclusion. i play best with yl followed by bestie and lastly with sx. Lol. quite strange to think of it, i had initially thought we would have the upper hand when paired with sx, but it turned out to be the other way round. lost fast and furious. Lol

headed home and did the long awaited diy hair treatment. the colour isn't as outstanding as it was the first time i did it. anyway, i used a mild-er colour this time. so that might be it. oh and i just deleted some Pw stuffs from my thumb drive. and guess what, i got like 50MB back. and i ha vent even deleted all yet. shocker.

hmm. i think I'll head down to the library tomorrow to get my PROWLERS sequels. yup. that's the plan. maybe hit the gym or something after that. need to get my lazy ass away from the house and sweat it out. gym plan on friday failed miserably. long story. lets just hope tomorrow turns out fine.

what time is it??

YAY! FINALLY SUMMERTIME!
and also at last, i managed to get in to blogger after trying for several days and countless attempts. NOW, Everyday is summertime!

havent blogged in ages, dun really know where to start. but i think i'll skip the not so important details.

PW IS FINALLY OVER! A LEVEL CHINESE TOO! all in a blink of eye. Within a week, all these woes disappeared into thin air! okay i duno why but i suddenly feel very high now. maybe its because im listening to hsm2 soundtrack. haha
i probably shldnt be saying this, but i think i will miss Pw. Afterall we've been through. Man. Despite the many ups and downs, I sincerely think Pw bonds people, I can't say for all, but I feel that it sorta bonded 0721 together! All For One!

it all started randomly, but what happened next, we really took fate into our own hands, and Work Things Out. so i'll really like to thank my group members, chin teng, fiona and ruo yuan! they're the ones who made Pw possible. Cant even fathom what Pw would be if not for them! I'm pretty sure though, even though Pw has ended, we won't be going our own separate ways, at least not yet.

Chinese was !@#$%. it's over at the very least. and OP was not bad. went to catch The Game Plan after OP. was a heartwarming movie. i wasnt the only one who cried near the ending, the guy sitted next to me was also crying. Lol. quite rare to find guys these days that arent afraid of displaying their emotions openly. maybe that guy thought no one noticed. Lol

Looking forward to many things.
1. Lectures
Surprisngly, and quite sick to think of it but I like to get my life under control. Right now, its mayhem.

Click here to get a preview of Step Up 2! sadly, the only thing that's remaining in this supposedly sequel is the setting, Maryland, the School of Arts. as a bonus, Channing Tatum struts a few moves at a club scene. but this sequel proves to be quite something as well. SO ARE YOU READY TO STEP UP? hahahah omgosh i think the female lead is Channing's adopted sis or smth in the first movie. rmbr the tiny girl?

anyway. i just have to post this. extracted from jeraldine's blog.

Facebook is becoming quite a popular hit among my email contacts these few days. Haha I dun understand why some people choose to stand rooted to the ground, not swayed by the moving crowd. hahaha

The hunt begins
