Leave me out with the waste, this is not what I do

1. Movie Night was a succes!

2. KEANU REEVES :D :D :D

3. FIVE MORE BLOODY DAYS

4. I got a new camera.

5. I DON'T NEED SWITCHFOOT BECAUSE I'M LEARNING TO BREATHE! THEY ARE NOT MY ONLY HOPE. AND IT'S NOT YOU.

6. I am Seriously Deluded.

7. Why Switchfoot go perth!

8. INCUBUS BETTER COME TO SYDNEY!

9. I'm ranting.

10. This is freaking annoying.

As you can see, i'm deranged.
And i'm tempted to tell all of you my livejournal account, but i decided not too.

Oh, and have i mentioned that I really don't need to see Switchfoot? That Jonathan Foreman's an ass?

You do not warrant long goodbyes.

Blessed Be The Name Of The Lord

I know i said i'll be gone for quite awhile.
But O'lvl results will be released tmr. And the fact is, i'm freaked out.
I really don't know what to expect because the papers were all..well, i don't know! It wasn't easy peasy and it wasn't extremely difficult either! So yeah, i don't know what to expect.

Basically, i'm ranting.
But i'm sure God will bring me through all of this. And i'll continue to trust in Him and bring Him glory, no matter what.

Blessed be your name
In the land that is plentiful
Where your streams of abundance flow
Blessed be your name

Blessed be your name
When i'm found in the desert place
Though i walk through the wilderness
Blessed be your name

Every blessing you pour out
I'll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still i will say

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name

Blessed be your name
When the sun's shining down on me
When the world's all as it should be
Blessed be your nae

Blessed be your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there's pain in the offering
Blessed be your name

You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, blessed be your name

And so now, goodbye.

i like definitions, but you're so undefined.

Oh what Drama. TCS-changed-mediacorp has such perfect scriptwriters. I'm watching the last episode of the 9pm channel 8 drama now - the golden path.

Well, all i can say is that The Crazy one always lose out in the end. In this case, it's chew chor ming. And THAT, my friends, is an understatement.

goodbye. i'm going on an indefinite hiatus.
Maybe.
Maybe Not.


But you're my person.

Saturday, January 19, 2008

There's something about the way you look tonight(:

I'm watching 40 Greatest Reality TV moments 2 now. And it's just so so so amazing. Okay amazing's the wrong word la.

Whatever happened to clay aiken? What happened to geek-turned-hottie?

Well, i must applaud Britney Spears. She's getting back on track and her new song & the music video - Piece of Me shows that the former pop princess won't get defeated so easily.
Who knows? She may very well just make a huge comeback.



I’m Miss American Dream since I was 17
Don’t matter if I step on the scene
Or sneak away to the Philippines
They still gon put pictures of my derrière in the magazine
You want a piece of me?
You want a piece of me…

I’m Miss bad media karma
Another day another drama
Guess I can’t see the harm
In working and being a mama
And with a kid on my arm
I’m still an exceptional earner
you want a piece of me?

I’m Mrs. 'Lifestyles of the rich and famous'
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. 'Oh my God that Britney’s Shameless'
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. 'Extra! Extra! this just in'
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. 'She’s too big now she’s too thin'
(You want a piece of me)

I’m Mrs. ‘You want a piece of me?’
Tryin’ and pissin’ me off
Well get in line with the paparazzi
Who’s flippin’ me off
Hopin’ I’ll resort to some havoc
End up settlin’ in court
Now are you sure you want a piece of me?
You want a piece of me…

I’m Mrs. ‘Most likely to get on the TV for slippin' on the streets’
When getting the groceries, no, for real..
Are you kidding me?
No wonder there's panic in the industry
I mean, please, do you want a piece of me?

[Piece Of Me lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]

I’m Mrs. 'Lifestyles of the rich and famous'

I’m Mrs. 'She’s too big now she’s too thin'

Oh yeah
You want a piece of me

Oh yeah

It's a grey wall.

Today was so happening.
Okay, fine. QUITE happening, then.

I almost couldn't wake up in time to meet bernice for lunch. In the end though, i met tanjuiwei and we had lunch in school.

Can you bloody believe it?!

Well, i had my good ol' milo (yeah i really miss that) and juiwei had vegetable rice, fruits AND pizza! She's one fat person. We wandered around school aimlessly for awhile before someone opened up the GB room. By that time bernice already arrived and so we went to help out with the GB booth.

Well, CCA open house isn't as fun this year because the organisers(whoever they are) decided to not go with the usual structure. Instead, UG groups and performing arts had their open house today, while the rest had their open house on wednesday! Also, they didn't allow us to go around and shout : "JOIN GB OKAY!" like we usually do. We couldn't even BLADE which is a pretty darn good tradition.

So basically, sad to say, compared to previous years, this year's cca open house was quite, boring and very very very structured - which is what they wanted probably so yay them.

The atmosphere was pretty much dead and there wasn't the usual rah-rah going on. No more cca people trying to outdo each other with the endless cheers and shouts and stuff.

On the upside though, Jas came! (:
Haven't seen her since the 31st & yea she's just as crazy as ever. I remember her being the one to psycho me to join GB. Man, that was eons ago.

And school. A Quiet school is pretty darn good.
But throw in a thousand students and the after-school noisiness. I tell you, i wanted to run out the front gates screaming my ass off okay. Seriously.

Oh and i met yimei, shimin and ms hariyani! And ms pokky pok.

Dinner with terence, jas, jmo &duanjin. Oh and terry joined us later. And then i'm home.

I'm off to watch A Walk To Remember :D (See alex, secret stash! haha)

Oh, and i read alex's blog - " i met up with GERALDINE! oh god, she looks so small and her hair's all long and colored now! and she's also an official reader of this livejournal now, wheeee! "

Note: I may be small but i definitely pack a punch.
Anyway, i'm not small okay!
And my hair's long but i didn't colour it. I don't do colour.

I wna meet shakespeare. See where he draws inspiration for his stories from.

Maybe we're trying, trying too hard.

I am SO going to watch Hard Candy. The plot is absolutely fabulous and apparently Ellen Page, the lead actress (acted in X-men too, and Juno) is awesome.
Yeah i should be making a long-overdued trip down to Jurong to borrow some cds then.

Anyway, i thought i wouldn't be leaving the house today but it seems that i will anyway. Gna get my hair cut and then i'm gna collect my spects.

I would like to meet a forensic scientist. Not one from Singapore though. One from states or smethg. Where there are actually john does and murders. How cool is that, huh.

Okay i'll see y'all later.

"Wow. I didn't know my beard was iconic!"

&the world keeps spinnin' around, yea that's what i found

It's sucks when you go and join a competition like American Idol and you really hope you can get in. Just, get in and try to make your family happy and not let them down. But then you really can't sing and so you get rejected. And you get so disappointed and heartbroken. And then you do the worst thing ever - cry on national tv, or make a fool out of yourselves.

Well, all i can say is, it sucks to be you.

Haha aww well that's really mean. It's been a long day, for me anyways and i'm getting really bored. There's nothing for me to do but watch tv and read. I have absolutely no life. And i wna go out but i don't wna waste money. Haha call me stingy but whatever.

Oh-kay. I'm gna watch the poor souls on American Idol make a fool out of themselves, watch them get tortured by the judges. I love simon cowell. Actually, it's a love-hate thing. So yea. I mean, you compare yourself with frank sinatra, and you end up sounding like.. i don't know! It's BAD. really really bad.


XOXO

Chopin, Secret, Jay chou

Yesssss. I'm trying to learn how to play Secret, which is actually a Chopin piece. Not exactly very easy but hey. Keyword here is TRYING.

Yea well i went back to school today to look see look see. It was cool. I realised i like school MORE when i'm not part of it. As in, not a student. It's funny huh.

Anyway, it's pretty late now so i'm being an incosiderate ass trying to play the damn piano. Well, i have the whole day tmr but the problem is i don't have a printer so i can't print the scores out -.-

i am So equipped, aren't i?

Okay i'm losing the ability to sit still and blog. The piano's drawing me like a moth to the flame.

Goodbye, you.


*edit/

Okay i'm back. In less than five minutes. It's really too noisy to be playing the piano now and i'm just so so tired! Can you believe it, i'm turning into a pig. I had (almost) 10 hours of sleep last night and i can just drop dead and go into coma now. Really.

Yeah well i had dinner today with my parents, aunty helen + Stephanie, and my mum's friend, her husband, her son and her son's friend. Well, apparently, Stephanie is already at NSW and my mum's friend's son and his friend (confusing. i know) are also going to UNSW to study. So it's practically a gathering la basically.

I'm not going to talk about how nice Steph is and stuff but i just can't help thinking, and taking a step back and looking at what i have and go - "Wow."

I mean, God really provides. And when i say Really. I mean REALLY. Five months ago i was all panicky and not sure if i should go australia. And if i were to go to Australia, where? Melbourne, Perth, Sydney? It was all decisions and decisions and choices and decisions.
And the choice i made? It was all in God's plan. I decided to not go to Melbourne although the university there is like, probably better (their arts programme is second only to their medicine so compared to Sydney?) than UniSyd. I don't exactly know why i made that decision now (because there's still a chance i can get a scholorship to UniMelb - but God's will, not mine) but in everything, God has really shown His power. His never-failing love. It's just so overwhelming because everything just happened so fast.

I mean, suddenly after i applied to Taylors, people starting popping out everywhere in Sydney - Daniel, Emmeline &danny who i've not seen in AGES. Stuff like that makes me wonder. Actually, MARVEL is a better word. I Marvel at how God works in my life. And my friends, you may be reading this just for the sake of reading, but my God is an Awesome God. He really is Great and Almighty. He Saves, you know?

And i know that even if i'm gna do really badly for my O'lvls or that my parents don't earn 10K a month, God will Still continue to provide. He's always faithful. And His always there. It's just so so so amazing.

Life? Life is simply Simple. We just make it so difficult, that's all. We just want to runaway and avoid the netting. We want to rule our own lives.
Life isn't all that difficult. We just make it that way.

We're complicated in that stupidly complex way. Sheesh.

Tuesday, January 15, 2008

Seriously? Seriously!

Get this: I'm not only Re-watching Grey's Anatomy season 1 & 2, i'm Also Re-reading the Deathly Hallows.

In Singaporean context? SIAO la of course.

So, therefore, Seriously? Seriously!

I pretty much lived on the couch like, forever today. Now's my 10th episode of Grey's Anatomy. 5 from season 1 and the 5th one from season 2 now. Still awaiting season 3. It looks so so so exciting. Prepping myself for it ( :D )

Well, at least i'll be stepping out of the house tomorrow. Meeting the Peeepxzxzxz tmr at around 2. And then dinner with aunty helen and who knows who else.

-clanks.
Alex: " Dude, we're not moving."
George: "Really. You think?"
Guy on gurney: -wheezes.
George: (reading) "If elevator should stop, do not be alarmed."
" Press the button marked 'alarm' for assistance."
"If they don't want us to be alarmed, why call the button 'alarm'?"


What's with subtitles that makes me so amused?

Baby baby, there's something about you

The last few days are spent packing and buying neccessities. Apparently, stuff like paper and tissue paper and shampoo and stuff are really expensive in sydney. So. I cheong now la. Aunty. Very aunty. But hey, this is Singapore okay.

Anyway i'm planning to go back to school tmr, but not sure what time. And today, yet another church person "donated" her clothes to me. Like, a coat, a jacket and longjohnnys-whoosh! (If you know the trick. It's been pretty popular amongst the churchmates)

Yea i probably should feel like a charity case but i don't. And today sunday school was good because it's all about Focusing on God.

I really need to learn to Focus on Him; His power, His character, and His provisions. He has provided me with soooooo much. So much so it's pretty overwhelming. Especially since I'm gna be facing a whole new country, whole new culture, whole new school and whole new bunch of people. But He'll be there(:

Okay i'm gna start packing today! Hello, boxes.


*edit/

"Mrs Weasley ran forwards, but the hug Bill bestowed upon her was perfunctory. Looking directly at his father, he said, 'Mad-Eye's dead.'
Nobody spoke, nobody moved. Harry felt as though something inside him was falling, falling through the earth, leaving him forever.
_

They all stood looking at each other. Harry could not quite comprehend it. Mad-Eye dead; it could not be . . . Mad-Eye, so tough, so brave, the consummate survivor . . .

Shadow of the day

Have a splitting headache and i badly need to sleep now. Just did the powerpoint slides for tmr's presentation but me and dorothy both won't be there.

But bloody hell i have to redo it because i'm such a smart ass i have microsoft 2007 which all of them do not have. HAHA. well done well done. standing ovation.

Long day anyway. Went TP open house today with church mates and the shirt thing was cool. I'm pretty much rushing through this post so mind you i can't stop and be witty (HAHAHAHAHA. HAHAHA) so yea. we left and had fcomm meeting in church which was probably one of the shortest mtgs ever. Sent dom to camp (i miss natcamp06 which coincidently, is at sispec too!)

*edit.

TP open house was alright. Went with paul, eugene and deborah.Desmond was supposed to meet us there but he woke up late! He's so funny. They all are.
Anyway we headed down to Business to check out their HTM & MKT. Okay business people are so freaky. They are high, or at least they act like they are. We spent one hour in the LT watching some skit that's really erm, well, funny. Yeah funny if that's how you described it. Drag queens? Harvn's specialty :D :D :D

We got the goodie bags (which were obviously the main highlights, for the Guys) and then we saw javis, becky.C and angel! We all went to Design school together and basically talked nonsense. Oh and we got free tshirts that go: "I am..."
And then you can draw and fill in the blanks and stuff. It's all really cool and we're planning to wear the shirts to church. SOMEDAY.

Like i said, we had fcomm mtg. but not before tau-huaying at potong. And it's almost 12 now and i'm a total zombie i'll probably go into a coma if i switch off this damn electronic thing.


AHH okay la GOODBYE AGAIN, FOR NOW.
SEE YOU TMR WORXxXxXxX

Saturday, January 12, 2008

P.S I love you

I think i shall marry a pro-skater. Or a total hunk of a surgeon. Or a really suave pilot who looks really good in his uniform.

Friday, January 11, 2008

P.S I love you

I like the way MCR goes, "I'm noootttt oooookkayyy" Haha very very addictive.

Anyway, no prizes for guessing what i'm doing now. TV's becoming surprisingly boring, with no good shows at all. General Hospital? Days Of Our Lives? I may be bored but i'm not THAT bored. So i keep tuning in to discovery channel which actually has som really good programmes. I mean, who in the world knew that the U.S.S Indianapolis sunk anyway? (Note: sarcasm.)

No, really, they've got some good programmes going on.

So. I realised that i have almost absolutely no clue what's going on with my friends. First, work made me so tired i was too lazy to meet up with them and now they're all really busy with school and the sorts. And then it struck me that hey! that'll be my life once i step up that SQ plane that'll take me to down under where i'll be for the next ten months or so. (Speaking of planes, i just watched flight plan for about the hundredth time and it's still good. The uncertainty of Jodie Foster's mental state and the danger she's in - heart-poundingly exciting) (okay so i spent three lines digressing So What)

But yeah. It's not like i'll be migrating there and not see this Sunny Island again. I mean, people do this all the time. They study abroad and not see their family and friends for a year or so and they survived. And i will.

Still, there's this uncertainty in me. What if i don't fit in? What if i step there and it just so happens that everyone i meet hates me to the core? What if my life just spirals downwards and i miss home so much i get so depressed and i'm constantly broke and i hate my roommate (these are just examples of course)?
My imagination runs wild sometimes. But i read this on angel's blog (she's going to perth) :

Different place, but same God what.

It's true. Same God what. Why should i be so worried? After all, He's brought me here and He'll bring me through.

O'lvl results. First thought: DIE. Second thought: DIE.
Third? I don't need the results.
Yeah, Fine. I really don't need it. But still. I spent ten years studying, wanting to make it far in the Singapore Education System. And then in 07 i got a better opportunity and like all kiasu singaporeans, i grabbed at it. And that's AFTER i paid for the O'lvl fees and like all singaporeans i don't like to waste money. SO. here i am. I can go all melodrama - Indecision tears me apart. But hey like all Singaporeans(most) I don't do drama well.

So to cut it short (hell i spent the last minute typing that out), Like ALL other Singaporeans and slaves of the Education System, i wna do well. I wna get great fabulous results and show off. And if i wasn't leaving, i would proudly tell my relatives the single digit number i got when they interrogate me on CNY. And like a total sucker, i would soak in the heaps of praises they pile on me and finish every single piece of Bah Kwa they provide. My grandparents would give me more hongbao money than any of my cousins and i wouldn't even be ashamed.

But my friends, this isn't how life works.

So, have i said how amazing the Ellen Degeneres show is? Hahaha They've got Joey and JC from N*Sync here. Look at what they made out of Justin Timberlake? I didn't think he was that hot when he had curly hair in N*Sync. I was more into whats-his-name in westlife? Keith? Kein? Whatever. I reckon he's gay now anyway.

Okay i'm running out of thoughts. Sayonara!

Wednesday, January 9, 2008

But a year is a long time, and i'll miss you so

I was just thinking about it - Being a book critic. I mean, wouldn't that be one of the swellest job in the world? I don't exactly know any book critics and i don't exactly know how the job goes, but the thought of reading and then commenting - as a job; wouldn't that be cool?

This will be how you spend your day:
1. Wake up
2. Read to your heart's content
3. You can either author/book-bash or throw heaps of praises, all in a really short paragraph
4. Send it to the editor(i think)
5. Go back to sleep
6. Wait to see what you wrote in the paper, magazine, book.

But i doubt that's how it functions. The thing about the working world is that you'll never be 100% stress-free and totally content.
What a bitch isn't it.

Yeaa well it's already the 9th of Jan. And to think about it, i think i made a mistake joining the yf retreat committee. I can't seem to be able to commit myself. But well, i'll pray about it.

O'lvl results out soon. Not sure when but be sure i'll be checking the news everyday. Sheesh. I think i'm having like, a nervous breakdown or something. Not very nice.
I mean, what if i fail! Or get like, really horrible horrible results? That'll be so disappointing, and not to mention, embarrassing. How how how how. This is bad. Hahaha

So, things left to do:

1. coffee with people for the whole day (or almost) @ central or something
2. Shop till we drop
3. Start packing, like ASAP
4. Get back O'lvl results ):
5. Tour Singapore(:

Yea well, i'm pretty much running out of things to say.
Come visit me in sydney okay! And bring like, incubus or maroon 5 with you.
XXXX

Cause i'll take you to chinatown or causeway point, whichever you prefer

Hey baby hey baby hey!
I'm dead beat and i need someone to massage my feet(:
Went shopping with bernice today :D
we met on the train coincidently and had lunch at BK. We walked around looking for good buys but ended up empty handed. It was sad really. But THEN we decided to go chinatown instead.

We both bought like a top, and a dress each at really good prices. I got my scarves, one at vivo and the other two cheaper ones (like so much cheaper. But made of cloth and not Cashmere which will definitely keep me warmer during winter) at chinatown. So all in all it's been a great day shopping (:
HAHA too bad, prices are now high AND getting higher.

Had dinner with my aunt &family and now i'm hommeeeeeee.

And my dad's bugging me about results. SHIT. i think i'm gna die.

Okay! Moving on moving on. Shima's msg this morning totally shocked me. I was, well, shocked surprised perplexed upset dumbfounded - yea you get my point - to read what she wrote. Apparently, a friend of ours got involved in a bike accident and well, he unfortunately did not survive. I don't know how to put this in a nice way because however i say it will probably sound really bad.

We weren't close to the point of buddy-buddy but we hung with for a while. It's really sad, isn't it? To lose life so easily. Oh well, let's just pray that he'll rest in peace.


And now i've turned into an emo nemo. Well done.

Monday, January 7, 2008

Right back where we started from

Maybe i should start watching the O.C on a series basis. I mean, all the shows - smallville, charmed, the O.C - i've never managed to catch all the episodes and sooner or later, though usually sooner, i'll stop watching altogether.

After all, mischa barton is probably one of the coolest people alive.

___________________________________________

Latest update : Results out on the 25th.
I am SO SO SO SO SO absolutely freaked out!
I have a very Bad, STRONG feeling about this and it's not exactly the best feeling in the world.
How! I mean, it's not like O'lvls was so easy to the extent that i'm guaranteed A1s. So.
It feels like PSLE all over again.
Well, all i'm gna do is HOPE that there will be some epidemic or smethg (as if.) so they'll postpone the whole thing to the 1st of feb or smethg.
Oh man. This isn't gna work.
I'm just gna put my trust in the Lord and trust in His plans.
Cause He has plans to prosper us and not to harm us. To give us a hope and a future (:

'cause i miss you, this is more than i can say

I can't believe i'm talking to leong about yo mama! jokes.
Okay i take that back. Maybe i can. Kalvinder's missing a whole lot since she's in india!

So. Apparently the whole JC thing is super cool! Everyone i know seems to be having a blast. I mean, i dropped by dorothy's house like, ytd and she and deborah (SA SA all the way man) were so hyped out about orientation they even tried to teach me their mass dance! It's so funny. We were so high we watched hard gay (dorothy's choice) and we almost DIED laughing okay!

We also launched into choosing a song (can't reveal for what purpose yet) and we're all set for Hey Juliet by LMNT & All stars by smashmouth! Old songs :D :D :D


So. I watched I AM LEGEND.
Verdict: Five stars (max is five.)
Reason: Will Smith is like the smartest choice! He is REALLY goood and who said anything about the ending being lousy! It has one of the best endings ever and i mean, where would the name of the movie come about if he didn't sacrifice himself and die? The whole movie was really swell. Very intense and very exciting. The vampires are just a tad noisy and the producers even managed to inject a dose of humour, like, anytime. Really good. I am very satisfied haha (:

Only, my cousins kept questioning throughout the movies. Because they probably had to cut short certain parts that are still important, they shot it through really subtle means (like the magazine cut out from the refridgerator door? Did anyone get that?) and i mean, it linked the parts together somehow (at least for me) and my young cousins probably didn't get that.

All in all, go watch it. It's totally awesome.


Today i went OAL and met my potential roommate(:
Haha i know it sounds all glam and stuff but she's really nice. Yay can't wait!

Isn't life dull?
And i'm stuck between the packing and not-packing stage. Which means my house is in a permanant state of mess. Well done.

And i have an itch that needs scratching - I wna shop till i drop! *screams. Someboday, anybody!
XOXO

Someone loan me like, 2000$ or smethg. I swear i'll pay you back. Or we can go camera-shopping together :D I like nikon, not canon.
I mean, it's not like my 'korean parents' deposited 80,000$ in my bank right?
OR, option 2, you can supply me with film(:

Friday, January 4, 2008

So you sailed away, into the grey sky morning

I shall start off this post by saying that i'm sick and tired of watching a series of really lousy movies.
First hitman, then AVP2.
And AVP2 is so boring to the point that hitman could pretty much win an award. I mean hello at least there's hot actors in hitman but in AVP2 it's all just sticky gooey green stuff (that reminds me of the exorcist) and well, screaming aliens. Not exactly eligible for "Best Movie Of the Year" award huh.

So today, all that will stop. I'm gna watch I Am Legend with 2 of my cousins (aged 8 & 10, so if i freak out they'll probably be freaking out too so yeah. Imagine.) and despite what everyone else is saying (that it's lousy) i shall follow my heart and watch it anyway.

Well, it better be good cause today's tickets are 9.50.

And the book is supposedly awesome (according to eehui) so i'm hoping for the best. But we all know that movies don't always potray the whole storyline correctly. Directors have a mind of their own. It's really quite saddening. The book's always better. There's something about words in black and white that solidifies everything and allows you to digest it all.

You can flip back a few pages and reconfirm your suspicions but in movies, you listen, go 'What?' and think, "oh..maybe." And then the whole plot gets messy and you and your friends can debate over coffee the real meaning behind certain actions.

So it's just past 2 and i'm gna laze around watching tv or smethg. Life is so so so boring when you don't have moolah to bring you out shopping.

&i still don't get the facebook craze. "remember friendster?"
uhhh. yes. i'm still using it.
XOXO

TOTALLY PRICELESS




I like chelsea & i think balestier is cool. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

goodness

SERIOUSLY. Are People That Dumb? I'm shocked. I mean, remember that girls out loud video on how to pronounce words like Genre and Coupons? Sheesh. No wonder the Government's anxious to brush up on our english skills. They should have a worldwide are you smarter than a fifth grader? Or at least one in Singapore. It would keep me entertained for so long, really.






Dumb blondes. *shakes head.

AND SHE SHOULD'VE GOTTEN THE MILLION BUCKS!





HAHA I was screaming, Australia! Australia!


Entertainment :D They're all so cute.




And here we go again. That's K1 grammer!!



What else man? Chinese?



If female goats couldn't produce milk, how do they feed their kids then? But really, "YOU HAD A KNIFE?"
She sounded so incredulous.

When are they showing this anyway?

split tongues

Okay fear factor is scaring me. There's this woman who has split tongues. Like, literally. And she can move like, both sides and while you're eating your dinner, that's not exactly the best entertainment.

I woke up so early today i was like a walking zombie for the rest of the day! And when i stepped out of my house, all i saw was students in school uniforms crawling everywhere! It was getting to me because i feel so out of place not being in school. Like, who doesn't like first day of school right? Yeah well that was so last year and on the second day of new year i hung around with my grandmum who can't sit up for more than 2 minutes. Accompanied her to the hospital for her routine checks &the doctor shockingly told us that her back wasn't causing her the pain. It was her kidney! Totally blew my mind because for the last 2 months or so we all thought it was her back. Yeah well they're gna do a CT scan and all and i feel very Grey's Anatomy now. Just not so much Mcdreamy as Mcsteamy. I can't wait to watch season 3 and then 4 and oh just thinking about it makes me smile. I know i totally sound psycho but if you watch it, you'll understand. I really like Cristina. She should win like, ten grammys for that role. Remember "SEDATE ME!" and "You're my person"? Apart frm Dr.Bailey(whatever her real name is) - who is from theatre so obviously she has that energy, cristina really is very good. Next is George because his mannerisms just make me wna laugh. He's so awkward i'm embarrassed for him.

So anyway, mango had sales but stuff were still extremely expensive and i usually steer clear of mango stores when it's having sales BUT today mango@tm was relatively quiet so i went in empty handed and left with a pair of jeans which i got for FOURTY FOUR BUCKS. it's like such a great bargain! (speaking of bargains...) And i realised i'm babbling but so what sue me.

And last night i totally dreamt that i was holding on to a lomocam and taking pictures like, everywhere and cheryl was with me and she was just staring at me with this look on her face. That eyebrow look that makes me wna laugh. I know it's a weird dream but since when have my dreams been normal?

And if you people read ytd's newpaper, then i'm telling y'all that the articles there are what really pushes me and motivates me to become a journalist. Witty articles get me done.

I know that's alot of words in one post all clamped up together and i know how some people hate this but i could go about writing about my life saying:
1. Wake up
2. Survive
3. Get back to bed

Simple but obviously the easiest way to live. And i'm catching up with the usual tmr after their school ends and we're probably gna catch Aliens vs Predators 2. I'm not a big fan of those alien screams and the laser pointing things that blast through people but apparently there's not much shows around. And bloody switchfoot is coming on the 31st, and maroon5 is coming around march. I hope all those bands stopover at sydney or smethg or else i'll be a really sad person.

Okay i'm so tired now i feel like sleeping beauty and a hundred years isn't enough. Even prince charming couldn't kiss me awake. Unless he's really hot. Like Johnny depp hot. Then that's a completely different story.

Oh and depp has a new movie. Apparently it's some musical thingy and i can't wait. His bathroom singing gets on my nerves every night and i really wna hear smethg more professional. And speaking of musicals, let's all get together and watch moulin rouge! It's so awesome. I mean, since i'm so free and all.

erm, cheers!

Dedications &love songs<3

Alright. This is a pretty long-overdue post! I FINALLY got my luggage today and it's stinking up the whole place now haha. Went over to central and pretty much just browsed through. I shall make that my favourite hang out soon enough. The shopping isn't great, but the coffee places are perfect(:

So, long post now.

Things I've achieved in 2007:

1. Growing closer to God
-I mean, i know i've strayed and all, especially in 2006 so i really wna Thank God that this year, with it being the really major year what with the dreaded O'lvls &all, I've learnt to grow closer to Him.

2. Learning to stay at Bedok!
-Seriously. Bedok is just so different and not to mention, BLOODY FAR frm serangoon! Travelling to school and spending lesser time out because i'll be too lazy to travel? It's smethg hard to grasp at first but i've managed it. Ask the group of naggy friends who's always nagging me to go out haha

3. Completing Sec 4 &graduating frm YYS!
-Secondary school is like, so yesterday! HA. I wish. A part of me still remains in my sec school days where books and prefects and cca is still a huge part of me. Well, all that is past tense now but getting through 4 years of Fun and Stress and so many other things makes me feel so Accomplished. Really.

4. Deciding to further studies overseas.
- Ahh. THIS. Reasons will probably be hard for you to understand but this is what i Really want. I mean, i've wanted it all my life! Wna Thank God for delivering and for the fact that he Will continue to deliver :D

5. Changing.
- 2007 has it's ups and downs, its pros & cons. And all that! All that totally changed me! YOU've probably impacted my life in one way or another so yes. I've definitely grown up(:

Yeah so what's a dedication post without it's dedications Right!

1. Teachers & Ma'ams.
-I stopped GB like, at the first half of the year so i haven't been seeing my Ma'ams for so long. But thank God for all of you! You've helped to groom a bunch of people from young girls into women who are so into Christ! It's been Great & i Thank all of you for teaching us the word of God &teaching us how to be better people(:

-Teachers : From the times where you'd get so angry with us to the long talks about how you care about us; Thank you for never giving up on us even when the odds were like. Well, you know. haha

2. The Retarded People
- Cheryl: You've been such a great support and friend throughout the last 4 years. We're big girls now and big girls don't cry(: We've both been through alot and though misunderstandings happen all the time, you know i Love you. And i will continue to love you despite whatever.

We don't talk talk like i do with the girls &varian but yeah, you know you've our back &i know we've got yours (mostly.) So enjoy 2008 at whatever school you're going to!

- Jiang: I know i've told you this countless of time but you're NOISY and LOUD. But really nice &a great friend.

You've always taken the bullet for us and have stuck by us for the last 4 years. So thank you &study hard okay!

- Adam: You're one of the first few people i know in secondary school & you're probably the one that haven't changed all that much.

Whatever it is, we still regard you as part of us & we still want the best out of you. So enjoy the year ahead okay! AND YOUR MONOPOLY SET IS STILL WITH ME :D

And the extended people (As varian likes to call them):

You're part of us &i hope you feel like it. loves :D

3. The Dings

All of you made sec2 & 2005 one of the greatest years of my life!

10. And of course, my Creator King
-God has blessed me so much this year. His love never fails and He's always there for me. He's my first priority and i'm still grasping the concept of surrendering all to Him. The end of 2007 means that there is another new day tmr, and a new year can lead to so many things that God has planned. You're my first love<3

Okay well, that was long wasn't it. If i've missed anyone out, i'm really sorry! You've impacted my life definitely, so yeah.

Things to achieve in 2008:
1. Good results
2. That friendship and love will never fail
3. That my relationship with God will be even stronger

Very simple and few, but it'll be a struggle. I can feel it, but God will pull me through(:

So, Have a great 2008 ahead!
XOXO

1st Jan 2008

What if i wanted to fight, fight for the rest of my life

Okay i am totally postponing the dedications and stuff to tmr or smethg. Really too tired now. Been up the whole day and I am Totally and Completely Satisfied to say that i've officially stopped working today! Goodbye early mornings and dreading what to wear! Goodbye facing the long hours at work and being extremely bored to death!

HELLO 2008!
Happy new year people! :D

New year, new everything. Just wanted to say that watchnight service was a blast! I was struggling to keep awake of course, but you can hardly blame me cause i woke up at 6+ today and worked until SIX because THE COMPANY (haha so csi) didn't allow my dept to take half day off! Sickening but whatever. Went to pts' house where i met the schoolmates!
Have not seen them for a really long time, but like i said, i'll leave the dedications till tmr. Or later.

Okay well then, wanted to drop by and say HAVE A GREAT 2008!

XOXO, Geraldine
