::GEEZ::

Kids ARE irritating. I have finally decided on my stand that they are irksome little creatures. Ok, I agree that I was extremely irritating as well in the past when I was a kid. So we ALL were. Anyway, there was swimming on thursday, and the pool was flooded with Primary school children. I was okay with the fact that they use the pool, but it was when they came to the toilets to bathe. It was terrible. They made a hell lot of noise, banging the doors of the cubicles DEMANDING us to bathe quickly, asking what we were doing inside, saying their bus was going to leave with them. In short, they were totally on my nerves. I was outside the cubicle at that time, so I could see them doing what they were doing. My friend was greatly pissed because those kids kept thumping on her door. Like HELLO!! We have to be in school at 0900 and here we are trying to hurry up when it's already 0845. We have 15 minutes to get to school whereas your stupid buses will wait for you until all of you board it!! My gosh!! And indeed, we were late for class.

I discovered a very interesting shop selling toys in Takashimaya. It's at the same level as Kinokuniya. Cool place. You could drop by if you are free. It makes you happy. Toys make people smile. And it's high quality toys, not those you find in the typical store.

And I finally got a new bag. This one is large. I am very happy with it indeed!! Finally!! But of course, it's kind of inconvenient when I sit in the bus because the bag takes up quite a bit of space.

And for those who intend to watch The Eye 10, I tell you, forget it!!! It's not nice at all. For those who want to be scared, you are going to be disappointed [of course this only applies to those people who spend their whole lives watching horror films and are not afraid of the usual tricks]. I was cowering behind my fingers most of the time. The plot is thin and boring. It's quite cheapo in fact. Not that I am trying to be mean, but it's the truth. The critics are going to say the same thing.

And I have heard some songs in Ayumi's Classical album. Can't wait for it to be released in Singapore!! It's really super duper nice.

::sunny::

Ok, so I am going to watch The Eye 10 tomorrow. You would probably be thinking why the hell whould a scardy cat like me ever would want to watch a horror film? There's probably something wrong with me. My father actually said it's worth watching because The Eye was super frightening. Told him to pick me up when I reach home. I figured I would not be able to take the lifts on my own. M said I could call her if I was too freaked out and needed someone to talk to on my way home. =) That's kind of sweet of her. But then again, we might all chicken out at the last minute and decide to watch something else instead. All the girls in my class are not watching, except Fiona and me and some other guys.

Some or should I say most of the girls in the class were commenting on the length of my skirt today. But it's really not short!!! I am really certain at least 3 of them have even shorter skirts. But of course, they weren't the ones who commented. It was the usual few. They took every single chance to comment on the length and I took every chance I could to defend myself and compare mine with theirs. Anyway, mine wasn't the shortest after all. It's quite a normal length, just that they make a big fuss out of it. By next week, they would get sick of the topic to move on to a new one.

::难道爱神在感冒?::

I know who the person is. You can't hide it from me.
-------------------------------------
Ayu's My Story Classical album is going to be released this thursday!!! Please, please let the overseas edition release date be the same as the Japanese version!!! I can't wait.

Heard it's really nice. After one year in TJ, I have finally posted something on the forum!! Quite the failure, but hey, it's a huge feat for me already. The forum's quite a cool place. I am surprised that so many people actually post there. There are people having heated arguments as well. Like what my friends say, grab a salted [actually I prefer sweetened] popcorn and watch the show! Not that I am new to forums or anything, but it's always amusing to see people bickering in the forums. Do I sound sadistic or anything? Maybe I just like trouble.

Had a terrible headache that lasted the whole day yesterday. The physics SPA practise and PE under the extremely hot sun worsen the condition. Reached home super late at night because of tuition. Was half dead already, but I still managed to update my iPod. Anyway, I ate my Panadol after much difficulty. There was this cockcraoch lurcking in the kitchen. My sister saw it and kind of freaked out. It affected me, but my headache was on the verge of killing me already, so I had to "risk it all". Slept at around 0000 after taking the medicine. Now the headache seem to be coming back.

Anyway, I feel extremely guilty now for sending certain stuff to my friend. GUILTY GUILTY GUILTY!!!!! I need to redeem myself. Bleah.

And Happy World Water Day!!

::universities::

Was chatting to M online just now and we talked about certain universities. Ok, I was telling her to get into Blah Blah University and she will be denying and saying she wouldn't make it. Anyway, I went to look at the websites of those universities and one of them was MIT. Turns out that fifty-nine current or former members of the MIT community have won the Nobel Prize. Ok, no wonder it's a top college. Just why are some people so smart and so many are not-so-smart? This is such an unfair world. Oh, was looking at anagrams just now and saw this really cool one: Desperation = A Rope Ends It. Actually there's a lot more, but I thought this was one of the best. Not trying to say that my life is so miserable to the state that I want to put an end to it. In fact, I still don't want to die. SO many unfulfilled wishes. And why is it that American universities look so nice whereas NUS look utterly terrible? It's so old and ugly. I don't know how to describe it. Ok, maybe I'm just grumbling because the course I want to do is not offered there. Or maybe it's just the pictures.

::INSPIRE::

I don't understand why is it that however long or hard I practise, I still don't improve. Okay, I only practised twice since last tuesday but each time I practise, I do spend quite a lot of time on it! Maybe it's still not enough. But I am getting so sick and tired of it. It seems that I am just not the cut out for anything!!! What the hack. Maybe I should just concentrate more on my studies and quit thinking of such things. But I really want to do something good out of it! I don't want my time spent in the stupid orchestra to be wasted! Of course I know my existence there is totally worthless. Anyway, I left CO early today because I wanted to visit my grandmother who is lying in the hospital looking so sick and tired. She's in quite a bad state. I could hardly make out what she is saying now. She was coughing as she ate something that resembled baby food. The minor stroke that she suffered from kind of affected her gullet or throat or something. And when I reached there, she had just came back from her dialysis treatment. It's really painful. And her arms are full of those needle scars. Anyway, she was quite happy to see me. Said I was a good girl. And I said indeed I am a good girl! Haha. Made her smile a little. She can be discharged tomorrow after her lunch, she told me.

::red apples::

Yesterday was yellow bananas, so today shall be red apples. Well anyway, when I first saw the Chanel No. 5 advertisment featuring Nicole Kidman, I thought it was a movie trailer. But that's besides the point. It actually costs 18 million pounds to film! And the whole ad is only 2 minutes long [it's 3 minutes if you include the credits at the end]!

::yellow banana::

No, I am not eating any bananas, just that I have ran out of ideas for the title and my sister suggested 'Yellow Bananas'. Well, Sunday was boring, boring, boring!!! I spent almost the whole day in front of the computer playing Neopets and staring at the stockmarket page. Took some time to practise my drumming skills and I couldn't see any improvement. Still as lousy as before. Tomorrow's my last day of slacking. I have school for almost everyday. CO alone takes up 17 hours. So much for the holidays.

::chicken::

Apparantly this is my 3rd post today. This hardly happens but it seems that I have much to say today. The NUS Openhouse was kind of boring. The weather was really hot, which made it worse [or should I say it made the openhouse boring?]. Got loads of brochures which I still have not yet read through. The place was really crowded. The people sucked all the cool air from the air conditioners away. We were sweating like pigs. Anyway, we left soon enough. Went to Bugis to shop. But we parked ourselves at Mcdonald's for a really long time. Took quite a lot of pictures. They were mainly not taken by me even though the camera's mine. Our dear photographic society chairwoman took majority of the photos, and I wouldn't say they were of high quality. Haha! After that Felicia and me went for the PAYCO concert. It was really cool. I though the music was the nicest I have heard in all the concerts that I have been to all my life. Nice visuals as well. [Note the dual meaning] And something seems to be really wrong with my Blogger account!!!

::fruit machine::

Finally I see something good has happened to me on Neopets. I finally won something from the fruit machine.

It really got on my nerves that everybody was so rich and I was horribly poor. And I still am! Been with Neopets for 4 years and yet I still have not got over the $200000 barrier. Well I have to say that I was inactive for 3 years, but still, some people earn $4mil in just 2 weeks!!! How did they do that??!! I have just dabbling with the stockmarket a few weeks ago and I have not yet earned any money from it. I am perpetually worried that I would lose all my $30000 that I invested. And it doesn't help when I see that the stocks are falling instead of rising although my friend told me that one won't lose money from the stockmarket. You just have to be patient! And very patient I have been indeed!! Anyway, I'll be going to the NUS openhouse later followed by going to some concert. Hopefully I would have a great day ahead. And because of all these, I will have to go for 4 tuition sessions next week. ARGH!!!!
---------------------------------------------
I've been blogging quite a bit these few days, so maybe you could scroll down if you are interested in reading more.

::TJ Idol::

It was not as good as I had expected it to be. Firstly, the organisers were inefficient. The whole thing was supposed to start at 6.30pm, but they started to admit people into the auditorium at only 6.35pm. We waited until 7pm before the actual thing started. Secondly, there were not enough seats. We had to go to the upper gallery where the view was not that good or else had to sit on the steps at the lower section. We paid $3 okay?!! Were we supposed to get that sort of treatment? It's just poor organisation. Thirdly, the sound system was still bad. Or maybe the performers were not up to standard because their voices were so muffled. Anyway, those people at the upper gallery [which includes me] were not so enthusiastic. We were rather quiet in fact. Many people left at the break time when the results were computated. We should have left at that time as well. The whole thing ended at around 11pm. I was so tired at the end, I was falling asleep. Many teachers had already left. Our friend [who was the chairman of the E-Club] asked us to eat some stuff [which was actually quite good stuff although it did not look appealing] that they did not manage to sell. He looked really stressed out. He actually did not want us to pay for it, but in the end we did because we felt so bad for him. I gave him $2 although I didn't eat much. It would be really horrible of us if we just ate the food without paying. The chocolate was good. Fiona dirtied her mouth with chocolate so badly was I shocked [yes, very shocked] by the sight of her, I kind of jumped. I took a cab home and I was kind of lucky to be able to flag a cab as soon as I got out of the school. There were many people at the school gate. The taxi driver asked me what happened because he was stunned to see so many people. And there was this contestant. He took part and won last year and yet he still took part this year and won again!!! I refused to vote for him even though he was rather good. [Or was it the best? I can't remember. His performance was always the same, he got boring. I slept through most of his performance anyway.] Enough of him already!
-----------------------------------------------------------
Anyway, this morning Fiona received a phone call from some girl. She laughed [as in 'HAHAHA!'] and said she called the wrong number before hanging up. And Fiona was rather pissed. So when she called again, Estella picked up the phone and did the exact same thing to the girl. That was really very, very, very funny. You should have heard her laughter. And I beat the mugger the latest GP essay as well! WAHAHAHA!!! I think I am going to get a haircut in the morning. My hair looks totally ugly now. It looks like a bunch of wild grass! Yuck! Oh well, today's the last day of term already. How time flies!!

::lachrymose::

Ok, I am aware that the title of the new skin is not matching with the picture. Anyway, it's been a really long time since I made my own skin, and TADA!! This is what I did with my 3++ hours of free time. I didn't include any credits since the html is of my own and the skin is my own creation. Except of course, the picture. I took it from here. Going for Temasek Idol later. Hopefully it won't be a disappointment since I paid $3 for the tickets.

[Edit]
In the end I still decided to put the credits. It's better to do so. And no tagboard because I realised my blog has too little traffic and nobody tags. So no point in it.

::thursday::

I am super pissed at those cashiers at NDC. I don't know what you call them, but anyway, they are extremely annoying. One of them got a serious attitude problem. She thinks she's some big shot. It totally irked me. She's so inefficient, grouchy, ungracious, lacks good manners, not friendly and I just detest her face. If she really thinks that her job is so boring, why don't she just quit? Everytime I go to the particular counter to pay for my ortho stuff, she would be there sulking away. Shouldn't she be happy that her job is so slack? Or does she have PMS everyday? Oh my gosh, somebody please sack her!!!! And there's this other woman. ARGH!!! The thought of it makes me mad. She refused to accept the fact that I had already given her my appointment card. She kept asking me if I was sure I gave it to her. I said yes and she didn't believe me!!! As though she can't be wrong about it. As I was searching for it through this pile of papers, she suddenly said, "Oh! It's here!" My goodness!!! Is she blind or something? I mean, if she's really blind, I wouldn't hold it against her, and if she didn't keep denying about the fact that I had already given her my appointment card, I wouldn't be so disgusted by her. Is she suffering from some memory problem??! What is wrong with all those women there?? Watched Howl's Moving Castle today. It was nice, even though I thought the plot wasn't exceptional.

::a little bit more::

Today was among one of the best days of my life!!! I finally passed my Physics and I got the same mark as the hateful mugger!!! YAY!!! More hard work and I will eventually beat him!!! He's one of the greatest assholes I have ever met in my whole life. And Lemony Snicket's was a super cool movie as well. Enjoyed it quite a lot. But I still think Finding Neverland is the best I've seen this year. Looking forward to watching Hitch and Howl's Moving Castle this month. And Ms Congeniality 2 is releasing this month as well!!! Chemistry SPA wasn't as bad as I expected it to be. [Took it on Monday. My friend actually called me at night to ask for tips.] Anyway, I don't really have great hopes for CO anymore, so maybe I should feel happier when I go for practise. By the way, I can skip the extremely boring CO practise tomorrow since I am going for my dental appointment. What colour should I change to next? Red? Black? Green? [Eck. No way.] Now I really just hope [and work towards the goal] that I will get straight As for my A levels this year so that I can get into the Engineering. I have no interest in Enginneering though. But there's nothing left for me anymore. I guess the only reason I am going for it is because I am moving nearer to the greatest goal of my life. Life is short, I should do something worthwhile about it. My life is still a big flop now. SIGH~

::neverland::

Finally I managed to watch something really heartwarming and meaningful this year. Finding Neverland. Best movie I've watched since January. And tomorrow school will end early! YAY!! But first of all, I must do well for my Chemistry SPA. Please let me remember all that I have learnt!!!

::finally::

Got back my Chinese results yesterday. CRAP!!!! WHAT CRAP!!! Although I got what I wanted, it was really terribly as compared to what the rest got. So I lasped into a period of depression yesterday. But anyway, some how I got over it when I was doing the Home visit. It was terrible. I never want to do that again. I definately have nothing to talk to the old folks. I can't help anyone and everyone looked upset and bored. I felt like some useless piece of junk. Tried talking to this particular elderly lady. Apparantly she didn't really want to talk but she allowed me to sit opposite her. And I was really trying to get a conversation started. But she can't really understand me and I can't really understand her. So in the end we ended up staring at the walls and ceilings. I asked her if she liked it when we visit her. She said no. How bad can it get? But again, she may not know what I am asking anyway. Went to talk to another old lady. She was really nice, got loads of stuff to talk about, but the thing is, I can't understand a word she was saying!!!!!!!! My gosh!!! So I just nodded my head when she asked something. She also knew I couldn't understand her. Some how I think she is getting rather forgetful. She kept repeating questions she asked before. And there was this old man who kept asking others to remove this thing that kept his wheelchair bound to the wall. But we couldn't do it because we were told not to. And he kept flashing his middle finger. What a vulgar a***h***.
