video call, school very boring, heart-broken

HAPPY SWEET 16TH BIRTHDAY STEPHANIE FOO SHI LING! hahah I'm very nice right.

p.s. if you (Steph) read this: sorry I didn't give you any present YET, I didn't know what to give anyway. hahas! and you never give me present also ok. I'm considering buying you some Indonesian shirt which I gave Celine last time, but it means that you'll only get it next year. hahaha. Or you want mine? I have 2 :D

----------------
(by the way there are 16 hyphens :p)

Hmmm. School has been... just as usual... boring. Sitting in front sucked. Can't do anything apart from listening to the teachers obediently and do the assignments given also obediently. Sighs.

But now I have been moved to the 3rd row, sitting in the middle with Hui Min on my left and Jing Yun on the right. Hello new partners! :D

Come to think of it, they're my 2nd (and also 3rd) partners in these 1.5 years studying in IJ. Hahaha, Steph, it's kinda lonely now without you disturbing me all the time and asking for food everyday. Plus the baseball games. Your singing in class. OMG I'M BEING SENTIMENTAL.

I just tried video call, quite fun, but the internet veryyyy sloooww. Captured some photos but not very nice :(

Hmm what else? Hating the teacher. THE teacher. You know. He's very demanding and quite unreasonable sometimes, like, saying that he won't put us together again (just sit in separate tables) but now what? We sit 3 people together. Right mister.

And a lot of other irritating things. Too irritated to write out.

AND LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I AM OFFICIALLY HEART-BROKEN. The love of my life, my boyfriend (he still is), has got a girlfriend. Who is not me. And a GIRLfriend. Why don't you just be gay, for goodness' sake, Dougie dear, what about ME?????????

Yeah whatever. I wanna sleep now. Sobs.

h1n1, school, RIP Michael Jackson

Helllo. I'm back to school now. Giant sigh.

Right. So. Urm.

Let us begin with the beloved H1N1. It is still a big issue here in Singapura, the stupid country which thinks that they could still stop the spread of the flu by quarantining people who just came back to countries which are considered "danger zones", like the US, UK, Japan, the Philippines, Australia, Thailand, Indonesia, and so on. What a lot of smart people (like me) would say, is that why don't they check the people in Changi airport? Well, yes, the virus need like a week to show symptom and to actually be active, but still. I think it's very foolish to quarantine people, especially in this hostel, where they can go around very easily and without proper watching and all? I mean, one of the hostelites went to Thailand and she was quarantined on the 4th floor, and no one was to interact with her. What did she do? Went to a walk up and down the slope out there, studied in the common study room, and went around the hostel as if nothing happens. Right. So much for cautionary quarantine.

And then, some schools in SG have been closed or extended the holidays because a lot of the students from that school have been infected with the virus. (Un)Fortunately, CHIJ Secondary Toa Payoh does not. Instead, to prevent the spread, they cancelled the assembly, the cross-country event which is actually the sports day (I just knew it today), meaning we bought the house t-shirts to not be worn on any events at school, and also they cancelled the Youth Day mass, or you can say all the meetings and gatherings. Right. And they did not close the canteen, where people gather to eat and a lot of other people would be sitting on the chairs and the tables which have been used by other people, and don't you think that will be a grreat place for the virus to go around and find other victims?

Singapore is a very weird country.

Hmm, and then I can say that I have begun to be a little more diligent and hard-working than before, which is good, cos I know that I've been slacking during the first half of the year and now I am very very afraid that I won't do well in the O's. Cereally. So I'm trying to revise everyday, at least for an hour or so. Let's hope I can hold on to this.

Then, I am really really missing my fam now, which is quite a big problem.

Yeah, so that's it I think. Oh and I am really loving twitter at the moment, I am updating very often there cos it's like, I've got nothing to do, and it's really fun to stalk other people and get updated with stuff like the news and health tips and discount infos. hahas.

Oh and lastly, Rest In Peace, Michael Jackson, your Heal The World is now one of my super favourite song which got me crying on the day you passed away. You are a great man, and the title really suits you. I also want to live in Neverland, I am sure everyone do, and thank you so so much to try to make this world a better place for us to live in. All the best for you, wherever you are now, I am sure you are happy and free, and know that a LOT of people are missing you here. GOD bless. AMEN.

h1n1. twitter. bosan dan banyak lainnya. DENGAN BAHASA INDONESIA

sudah lama tidak mengupdate. ini semua dikeranakan malas. aduh malas pakai bahasa inggris, jadi menggunakan bahasa indonesia saja ya.

di sini sedang heboh h1n1. si flu babi itu. banyak yang baru kembali dari luar negeri. ada yang baru kembali dari jepang, sebagai contoh, salah satu negara dari banyak negara yang terdaftar sebagai negara yang sudah terinfeksi dengan virus h1n1. lalu orang-orang tersebut pun dikarantina, tidak diperbolehkan keluar dari kamar atau berinteraksi dengan orang-orang lain.

sekarang indonesia telah termasuk ke dalam negara-negara tersebut. padahal baru ada 2 kasus orang yang telah positif terinfeksi dengan virusnya. singapura sudah melaporkan ada 220 kasus. bagaimana pendapat anda tentang hal ini?

sekolah-sekolah di singapura banyak yang memutuskan untuk memperpanjang liburan bulan juni ini selama seminggu, untuk mencegah penyebaran virus lebih lanjut. namun, sekolah saya, sekolah menengah chij toa payoh, tidak memperlakukannya. mereka hanya mengatakan bahawa apabila anda baru pulang dari bepergian setelah atau pada tanggal 22 juni 2009, barulah anda tidak diperkenankan masuk ke sekolah. saya kembali ke singapura pada tanggal 13 juni 2009. menyebalkan sekali, bukan? jadi saya harus masuk sekolah, deh.

hmm. khabar lainnya adalah saya jadi senang sekali bermain twitter. seru sekali, lho. saya menggunakan aplikasi tweetdeck, yang mempermudah mengupdate dan juga menerima update dari teman-teman yang anda ikuti. saya jadi mengupdate setiap lima menit sekali atau bahkan lebih, sehingga saya merasa saya seperti orang yang tidak punya kerjaan. memang sih saya tidak punya kerjaan. saya malas sekali mengerjakan pe er. bosan tahu mengerjakan pe er.

hmm. lalu saya juga menjadi suka sekali menonton nigahiga di pipakamu. dia lucu sekali lho. video-video paporit saya ialah mengapa chris cokelat menghajar rihanna, si pura-puraWUHU, anak-anakBop, dan masih banyak yang lainnya. ayo nonton ya, lalu beritahu saya bagaimana menurut kamu.

aduh saya merasa tidak penting sekali nih, menulis dengan bahasa indonesia yang baik dan benar seperti ini. tapi menyenangkan juga. oleh itu saya akan melanjutkannya terus.

hal lain yang ada dalam fikiran saya pada masa ini ialah pesanan disk kompak McFly saya yang berjudul Radio:ACTIVE. pada tanggal 16 juni 2009 saya memesan disk kompak tersebut di ebay.com, seharga GBP9.5. cukup murah, bukan? saya akan mendapatkan dvd (guwa kaga tahu bahasa indonesianya apa), disk kompak berisi lagu-lagunya, dan juga sebuah buku. aduh saya berharap isi bukunya adalah poto-poto tampan daripada anggota McFly. kerana saya sedang jatuh cinta dengan kakak Dougie Poynter, yang tampan sekali ituh. oh iya, kelmarin disk kompak Motion In The Ocean (saya tidak mengubah judul albumnya kerana saya menyukai McFly dan apabila saya ubah itu bererti saya tidak sopan. lain halnya dengan chris cokelat kerana saya tidak terlalu suka dia). saya senang sekali, sampai-sampai saya melompat-lompat dan dilihati oleh orang-orang yang ada di dalam ruangan makan.

aduh, apa lagi ya. ah iya. akhir-akhir ini saya merasa sulit tidur. menyebalkan sekali. saya tidak boleh tidur apabila suasananya terang atau berisik. oleh itu saya mengenakan penutup mata dan penyumpal telinga saat tidur.

jijay sekali ya post saya kali ini. peduli amat ah. sampai bertemu di lain masa. emuah.

back in SG :(

hellooo. I am officially back in SG now, and will be until around mid Nov I think? Sighssssss. :(

on the last day in Indo I spent by EATING BUFFET at Keyaki restaurant in Sari Pan Pacific Hotel. It was greeat. I ate:
tempura, beef & chicken teriyaki, unagi with tofu (the tofu was not nice though), sushi (only the tamago one), prawn (a big one, but I don't think it was a lobster), the grilled thingy where we can choose what we want and wait for the cook to cook it for us (consisted of 6 slices of beef, 3 slices of chicken & 2 slices of fish. didn't finish it, I went to toilet and when I got back it was gone. someone ate it. oh well), and ICE CREAM. too little for Rp170k-worth buffet? Oh well. My dad & bro ate a lot so it payoffed.

And on 13th I went back to SG with Ate & Icha, and when we got to Changi, GM joined us cos she went to send her mom off (her mom was going back to Indo, we met her in the terminal, she was going in and we were going out). Then we wanted to eat Carl's Jr., or Delifrance cos it's been a long time, but all the fast food restos were having renovation, so we had to go to the 3rd floor and eat at the foodcourt in which the food were super ex. dammit. Ate & I had spaghetti chicken afredo (cream one) for S$8.5 each and only bought 1 drink cos it was free-flow. The regular drink was S$1.6 and the glass was so small. But whatever, it was free-flow anyway. We shared it among the 4 of us. So stingy right. Hahah.

Then when I got back to the hostel, our room was dirty, cos the fan was cleaned when we went home and a bit of the dirt dropped to the floor and onto my bed. Argh. So Icha & I cleaned our room first before unpacking. We wiped the floor and all, I considered changing the position of my desk but it was not successful. I also wiped the floor traditionally ok, on my hands & knees. Cos if using the mop thing it was still quite dirty and I couldn't stand it, so yeah. haha.

And today I'm gonna have tuition at 2.30-4.30pm. SIGHS. :'(

wooohooooo in Indonesia alr :D

HAPPY 17TH BIRTHDAY TO VANESSA CASSANDRA!!! :DDD
I think the rest of the girls called her at 12am yesterday night (or this morning?), to greet her. When one of them SMSed me it was 11 past and I was already asleep. Sorry Ne. :(

I AM IN INDONESIA!!! It's been 2 days alr, and I have:
- eaten the food I wanted to eat. The one left is only Ayam Goreng Pemuda Surabaya I think.
- CUT MY BELOVED HAIR. AAAAAHHHH I LOOK REALLY HORRIBLE NOWWWW. DD''''X TOO SHORT DAMMIT.
- hmm bought a lot of things. I've got the skirt, oversized tee (2), leggings (2), celana ketat (what do you call this in Eng? Tight shorts?), and now thinking to buy a laptop bag, the small one. I still dunno. Malls I've gone in 2 days: Mall Kelapa Gading, Mall of Indonesia, Plaza Senayan, Senayan City. I haven't gone to Mall Artha Gading, I wanna go there.
- played the violin. So hard just to tune it! I was so scared that I was gonna break the string again. Just so you know, the first time I got the violin, I tried to tune it myself and I broke the first (or the fourth? The smallest one) immediately. HAHAH.
- met some relatives.
- planned to go out with junior high friends. Today at 12. I have to go with the wonderful Pochi cos I have nobody to fetch me. So later I think at 9.30 he will go swimming first and I'll go with him, just waiting there cos I don't wanna swim. Well, actually I can't. For some reason. NOT THAT I CANNOT SWIM OK. I'll just do homework. Sighs.

hmm what else? Oh I do not like my PC's keyboard. So hard to press! I like my laptop much better.

going home in 2 hrs!

Today I'm supposed to go and have a class barbecue. However, I can't go cos my flight to Indonesia today is at 8.50pm (can't use 'but' at the beginning of a sentence). :(

Yesterday I helped buying the things to have for the barbecue. Nevertheless, I can't enjoy it. (this is very awkward)

I'm going home with the boys, cos I was supposed to go with Melda, but she moved her flight to the 7th I think, cos she takes part in the 30-hour fast. Oh well.

WHAT I AM GOING TO DO/HAVE IN INDONESIA:
1. food. Bumbu Den, Hoka Hoka Bento, pempek, Santai Malam, Ayam Goreng Pemuda Surabaya, and a lot of other things I may not remember now. MAHAHA.

2. SHOPPING. I wanna buy skirts and oversized tees. Oh btw I bought the grey cotton on skirt, but size 10. I'm gonna alter it at home later.

3. need to do homeworks. SIGHSSS. :'(

4. I might add some more later. hahah!

TAKE CARE EVERYBODY WHO ARE GOING HOME AND/OR GOING SOMEWHERE FOR VACATION! HAVE FUN! GOD BLESS. LOVE YOU ALL :DDD

curse sweettalk person. I WANT THE COTTON ON GREY SKIRT

I just got home from Higher Malay supplementary lesson in Bishan. Screw it. Waste my time only.

I want the skirt from Cotton On! Only S10, and it's very nice! I like the grey one, but there's no size for me. Size 6 is too small, size 8 is too big. And for the grey skirt, I've been to 2 Cotton On branches, and the smallest size available was 10. Damnit.

So maybe tomorrow after school I'm gonna go to Orchard with Necha to go and buy. :D

After we finished the Higher Malay lesson, me & Jenni went to Toa Payoh Central to buy SweetTalk. You know, that drink with black pearls inside? Yeah.

I asked for vanilla milkshake. Then the person made the drink, then served it as vanilla milktea.

Notice the difference?

So I told her, "I wanted vanilla milkshake."

Then her face changed. Then she started grumbling under her breath in that stupid Chinese language and made the vanilla milkshake.

Oh, then an ang moh came, she asked for vanilla milktea. The person immediately took out the milktea she mistakenly made for me. The ang moh was taken aback, and she asked "Are you sure?", then the person said yes, then pointed to me. So I told the ang moh, "Yes, I asked for vanilla milkshake but she made milktea instead." The stupid person.

The ang moh didn't look very happy. She said, "Oh, yes, I heard you say milkshake (HAH!)... (To the SweetTalk person) You're very lucky, you know..."

HAH. TAKE THAT, SWEETTALK PERSON.

PLEASE, PLEASE BE THERE TOMORROW, COTTON ON GREY SKIRT SIZE 8, PRETTY PLEASE.

nineteen minutes. the world isn't meant to be fair.

I am currently reading Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult. I was tempted to read the book because of its opening paragraphs:

"In nineteen minutes, you can mow the front lawn, color your hair, watch a third of a hockey game. In nineteen minutes, you can bake scones or get a tooth filled by a dentist; you can fold laundry for a family of five.
Nineteen minutes is how long it took the Tennessee Titans to sell out of tickets to the play-offs. It's the length of a sitcom, minus the commercials. It's the driving distance from the Vermont border to the town of Sterling, New Hampshire.
In nineteen minutes, you can order a pizza and get it delivered. You can read a story to a child or have your oil changed. You can walk a mile. You can sew a hem.
In nineteen minutes, you can stop the world, or you can just jump off it.
In nineteen minutes, you can get revenge."

And then the story goes.

Basically, it's a story about a boy named Peter who is bullied, who takes a revenge by committing a massacre in his school, killing those people who were mean to him. And then, because he committed a hideous crime like that, he is being jailed, I think for life. I haven't finished reading everything (I took a peek to the last part. Shh.).

The troubling issue that I just thought about and decided to jot it down here is:
The boy killed the people who picked on him in the past. But he is the one being punished. They were the one who started it, were they not?

It's like, those people did something bad to him, so he does something bad to them in return. But what he did was murder, whereas what those people did to him was maybe, making fun of him, sneering and jeering at him all the time. You can call it making life hell for him.

Why is a murder worse than those things?

A lot of people who are abused, being beaten up everyday, enslaved, or suffering from an excruciatingly painful terminal illness may say that death is more appealing than living in this world with these burden being put on their shoulders. Death is peaceful, it is even easier to die than to fall asleep (a saying from Remus Lupin or Sirius Black from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, I forgot who said it, and the exact words).

Why were the people who made life hell for Peter never get punished? Whereas Peter, who did what he thought he needed to do to stop the torment, get to be punished? The suffering Peter experienced during his life continued without anybody preventing it from happening to him. Even his mother can be considered as doing the wrong thing to make him able to stand up for himself (by threatening to punish him if he didn't fight back). What he wanted was that the torture stop, so he can live in peace and happiness.

I thought. It is not fair. Peter suffered for don't know how many years, and now he get to be jailed for life because he stopped the bullying towards himself, forget about how he did it.

What is wrong, I think, is how people ignore the suffering other people may be experiencing. What comes out in the headline is when the tormented person does something in order to protect himself, sometimes to extreme measures, eg. what Peter did. The things they do to him are never acknowledged, right? They just let it go without offering a helping hand to the bullied, instead sometimes some people helped tormenting him.

If only someone helped Peter get out of the bullying, they all can live happily ever after. Everyone can.

Help those female suicide bombers in Pakistan, please, someone. Before they become martyrs.

immunisation sucks. tkmb film

I went to the Health Promotion Board today, to get the immunisation, with Pati & Necha. When we arrived we went straight to the toilet, and acted like total idiots there. Hahah. Then we went out and didn't know where to go to. We had to register first, and there was this machine where we put our EZLink card to get its barcode scanned, and then it knows our name! (<- see, total idiot) Then we'll get a number, and then we go to the registration place, then we get another number, and wait for another machine to display our number on the screen thingy. You know, that kind of screen.

Then I went in to get consultation from the doctor, and after that waited again to finally get immunised. Shot. Dunno what's the word.

When I was shot it wasn't that painful. Well, ok, quite painful, but bearable. After that it wasn't painful anymore. So everyone's happy.

BUT, it hurts NOW. It hurts when I raise my left arm. I got shot on my right & left arm. The right one is ok, but the left one is a problem. Dammit.

Now the rest of the girls are watching To Kill A Mockingbird. I don't wanna watch, cos it'll ruin my image of the characters. I've seen a trailer of the film, and I was rather disappointed with the casts. Atticus doesn't look as clever as I imagined, Scout doesn't look as boyish as I imagined, and Mayella doesn't look as weak as I imagined. Thank goodness I didn't see Jem and Dill. I still want them to remain as I imagined them to be in my mind. For now I want to enjoy the book as a book, not a film, where the characters' faces are clearly seen. For now I still want to enjoy the characters as I imagine them to be. I'll watch it after the O's, when I don't need to get in the atmosphere of the book, and understand it as if I live in the book's world (isn't in needed in order to really feel and understand the book? I dunno).

NOISE. late for school. mass practice, immunisation tmr!

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY SOME PEOPLE CANNOT STOP TALKING AND START THINKING ABOUT DOING SOMETHING.

ok, today was quite a nice day, except from the part where we got late to school, because of the stupid side gate (or back gate, whatever). We weren't supposed to be late ok, the juniors were only like 5 metres in front of us and they could still get in! The hell with it. So we had to sing the National Anthem and The Pledge, which are not even ours, because we're not Singaporeans. The other people sang with the minimum volume lah. We can even sing better than them. Louder. With correct pronunciation. We even memorise it better. STUPID.

And then, after school we had Founder's Day mass practice. I'll bring the offering of portrait of Father Barre. Rather queer, don't you think? (do I use the word queer correctly?) But whatever. Then we had to go earlier cos of the stupid higher malay. SIGHS.

Oh I'm gonna have immunisation tomorrow after school. I hope it won't hurt very much. I mean, I think I'm ok with needles now, because of the 12-days in hospital last last year (wow, time does go very fast). But Jenni said immunisation hurts more cos it's like, deeper. I dunno.

AND THE NOISE LEVEL HAS GONE UP LIKE, 55 TIMES. DAMMIT. Just go largh, who cares.

Games Day, Fiesta, colour swap & accent, monopoly@Starbucks, Funan

okayyyy. What should I write about? Nothing much is going on with life, all the same...old boring life. yeah.

Hmmh. Maybe I should give a recount of Games Day & IJ Fiesta... Here goes...

So on 21 May we had the Games Day. It's when you have the whole day for you to play games lah, duh. The games were netball, captain's ball, basketball and badminton. Each class must participate in all games. Those who don't play anything (they're the leftovers) cheer for their classes.

At first I was one of the cheering crowd, cos I'm not in the mood for playing anything. Actually I was quite interested in playing badminton, but only 4 people were needed, and I was scared if I play I'll make our class lose. Hahah.

But then, on the day itself, one of the people who are supposed to play badminton had an arm injury, so I offered to play. So yeah, there you go, Nadia Ingrida, the lazybum, was gonna play badminton. :D

Let's just fastforward to the results, shall we? Too lazy to write about what went on. Sorry :p
OUR CLASS WON 3RD PLACE FOR BADMINTON!!! :DDD Of course, I helped in none a way. eg. : 1st match I played the last. The 1st person from our class won, 2nd pair won, so even if I lost we'll still win. So why bother? Hahah. But I won.
2nd match: I played first. Lost badly. Cos I was very nervous. The opponent was a tennis player! I stood no chance, did I? We lost this match.
3rd match: was the 3rd & 4th placing. I played last again. 1st & 2nd won, so I didn't bother much. I lost in the end. HAHAH. But we still won, so whatever.

YAY MANNNNNXZXZ. Our netball team was trashed I think. The basketball also. Hahah. But our cap's ball team won every single match! But we didn't win at all. I think cos they count the scores. Whatever lah.

4/3 '09!! but not complete :(
at the field

And then, IJ Fiesta on the next day, 22.5.09. It was okay. Our class was assigned to help with the chicken curry (or was it curry chicken?) stall. My shift was from 12 to 2pm.

In the morning we had the IJ Spirit Day, which was a bit of nonsense, cos I don't really understand what we're supposed to do during that time. Anyway, in the morning we had assembly at the hall, and then we went back to class to make something from the materials provided, that represents our class. I didn't help with it at all, so so sorry. :( Instead, we took photos!! Used the colour accent & colour swap tools from my beloved camera, IT WAS SOOOOOO COOOOLLLL.



colour accent: blue :D
























colour swap: blue -> green :DDD























colour swap: blue -> red

my camera was not liking me at the moment :(


















SO COOL RIGHT?? Only in these pics can we get a pinafore with different colour without even taking out the pinafore! hahahahahahahah :DD

After that we enjoyed the Fiesta, bought a lot of food and at 12 we went to attend the stall. Working at the stall sucks. Very few people went to buy the stupid chicken curry, so we had to shout "CHICKEN CURRYYYYYYY!!!!! 3 DOLLARS ONLYYYY!!!! CHICKEN CUUURRRRYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!" all the time. Screw chicken curries.

Then at 3 we had to go to Singapore Polytechnic again to have the prize presentation on the National Earthquake Competition thingy. Our school was the 19th place. Out of 52 teams. Not baddd. hahahahha.

Oh and then yesterday me Athe Necha & Pati went to Vivo to play monopoly. Yes, you heard me right, monopoly. We ended up sitting at Starbucks and play monopoly with Necha's laptop. So retarded. Hahah.

And then today I went to Funan, DigitaLife Mall or something like that. I KNEW THE PLACE, I've been next to it. But I didn't see the words Funan there so I didn't know it was it. Confusing much?

THANK YOU EVERYBODY (post-birthday)

hohoho. yesterday's birthday celebration was grrreat. THANK YOU EVERYONE WHO'VE ORGANIZED THE EVENTS, BOUGHT THE PRESENTS & CAKE, MADE THE GREETING, COME TO THE CELEBRATION, AND DONE ANYTHING CONCERNING THE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION!!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

ok let's recap. SO, May 11 was Bernadette Natalia Pekerti's sweet 17th birthday. We didn't celebrate it because it was still during mid-year exam, and we still have to study. So her birthday celebration is merged with mine (16.5.09). I knew this.

then on May 15 in the evening, before prep time (so it was like around 7pm), I went up to Talitha & Gisela's room on the 4th floor, to ask for money (hahah) from the 2 of them because in the afternoon I paid for them first when we ate at Seoul Garden (it was very nice, the meat & ice cream were super delicioso). Then I also borrowed Talitha's The Sims 2 & Encarta DVD to later install it in my laptop.

Then after prep time (1opm) I went out of my room and there was nearly nobody on the 3rd floor. One of the people left was Bernadette. Oho. Something was not correct.

Then I felt bored, cos there was no one to bug, so I decided to just go upstairs to return the DVDs to Tata. I went up, and guess what I found upstairs?

EVERYBODY.

HAHAHA. They saw me and they screamed. Damn funny la. This meant that I screwed up my own birthday's preparation for 2 years in a row. Cheers. :D

AND THEN, (I'll just ffwd) I went back to Adet's room and I told her abt the thing and we laughed together. Then I taught her guitar. Then at 12 am, the people came barging into the room and they sang happy birthday for me. Hahah.

On May 16, me, Athe, Jenni & Patty went to Far East to shop. I got a $30 vest (very ex right? but I couldn't find anything nicer & cheaper so yeah :( ) & a $15 white shorts.

in front of Carls Jr., Far East taken by a nice ang moh :)

Athe screwed up again by telling her mom that she was gonna have a birthday celebration that night at 10. hahahah.

So at 10 I was supposed to go down and celebrate the birthday. There was a quiz of guessing a person with 5 clues given. The person was Marson. Goh Chok Tong, the colour of Rwanda in the Social Studies text book & PM Lee Hsien Loong were involved, by the way.

Oh and these are the presents I got:
the greeting


the 3 dresses

The 1st & 2nd dresses are the ones given by the babelu people, and the last one is from Sil, Poch & Cumi. The 3 of them also give me a halter & a pink frilly skirt which I may use in not-near future. Must prepare myself to wear such a thing. hahahhaha sorryyyy :'( Why do people give me dresses for this birthday, you may ask. I also dunno. Hahahah.

THANKS AGAIN PEOPLE!!! LOVE YOU ALL!!! <3

countdown to 16.5.09

OH YEAH, 3 DAYS TO MY BIRTHDAY!!! :DDDDDD

Should I make a wishlist?

1. maybe shoes? Charles & Keith's one, preferably. I'm thinking of heels, but I'm not sure...

2. I want a drum set. Or acoustic guitar. Or bass. But I can only play the guitar. MY GUITAR DAMN CRACKED LA. I dunno why. Sobbbsss.

3. well I dunno. I suck at making lists. I just wanna be happy, that's all.

4. OH OH OH OH I KNOW. I WANT MCFLY'S MOTION IN THE OCEAN AND/OR RADIO:ACTIVE AND/OR THE GREATEST BITS: B-SIDES AND RARITIES CD. I WANT THEM BAADDDDD. Or any of McFLY's concert DVD. I'm mad about them these days.

yes yes. Making this kind of thing when your birthday is approaching kinda makes you feel guilty, but whatever. Just hope that someone you know is reading your blog and somehow the things you write here come up as your birthday present. har har.

irritation. TWEET

I have been hating this person. Always disturbing me. But I can't do anything about it. Hmphhhh. It's getting on my nerves. Never understanding my needs, when I have been the other way around. HMPH.

Oh yeah, been very happy twittering, cos got McFLY members in there, and I'm following them. Tom & Dougie updates the most. Harry nearly never updates I think. Hahah.

the earthquake model is finished. stupid dreams. tmr is chem spa (O lvl)

I have been dreaming. About things that I might want, at the same time I do not want. The thing I deny. It is wrong. But I want to see those dreams. Because I know it will not happen in real life. I want it to happen in real life. But it is nearly impossible. Maybe it is possible. But if I try, I am scared that everything will fall apart. I feel very bad. But this is what I want. AND THE SONG I AM LISTENING TO NOW IS NOT HELPING AT ALL. Bipolar - Bowling for Soup.

I think I'll screw physics. AAARGH it was hard, yes it is the standard of the usual secondary 4 mid year paper, but dammit, a lot of the questions are not very clear when you think in a complicated way. I dunno. I hope I can still get an A, so that I can use it for DSA. I can just hope.

On the bright side, WE'VE FINISHED OUR NATIONAL EARTHQUAKE CHALLENGE MODEL!!! Hahah. Want to see our building?



our proud building :D





















with Mr Rashid, a D&T teacher in school






















Joey Hwang helped us with the tying of the strings
Thanks a lot! :D




















Woohoo. So today we went to Singapore Polytechnic again to submit the model. Ours was the 2nd model to be submitted. The first one, which I saw, I dunno it was from which school, it was very very simple. No nothing. It was just square-shaped, with cross-bracings on the 2 sides. I am rather certain that we will somehow win, but yeah. Aim high, but not too high.

Now I'm supposed to study for chemistry SPA for tomorrow. It is the actual O level but I am very very lazy to study. No one is in the mood for studying now anyway.

Okay I'll try to revise... Wish me luck.

mid year exam recount. up until now. DOUGIE XD

hello everyone. I will now tell you the recount of the past mid year papers that I have finished.

29.4.09 English Language paper 1 & 2
For paper one I did the expository one, to write about the delights and frustrations you encounter in friendships. I feel like I wrote a lot of rubbish and I repeated quite some stuffs. I hope I can get a B. Then for the situational writing, we must choose between 3 themes for a campaign for 'Visit Singapore', to increase the number of tourists and to boost the country's economy. The themes are Singapore as an Arts Centre, Education Hub or Multiracial something, I forgot. I chose the education one, cos I thought if you attract foreign talent to study in Singapore (like us), then you'll get the tourists (their families that come visiting) and also boost the economy if later they decide to work in Singapore. First-hand experience. I should get good marks. But I dunno.

30.4.09 Social Studies
I suck in this paper. The essay questions were rather hard and I wasn't very sure with the answer. I'm not confident in doing SS now, because of the trauma I get because I flunked SS during the 1st semester of sec 4. In sec 3 I did well, but in sec 4 it was like, dropped like a stone. I think this is because of the change of teacher. Hmphhhh. I hope the source-based one is okay, cos I think I gave ok answers. Oh and I thought I won't be able to finish this one, cos it was like, only 1 1/2 hrs and we have to do 2 essays and 4 SBQs, but I managed to finish and even got a little of extra time. Good, but I dunno about the quality of answers. :(

4.5.09 E. Math and Chemistry
see previous post.

5.5.09 Literature
The essay question was quite difficult. I immediately did the unseen prose without looking at the poem first. Haha. It was quite ok but I'm not so sure. Another one with extra time.

6.5.09 GEOGRAPHY
I was very scared before this paper, cos I felt like I didn't study very well, and I dunno what to study! There are 3 topics tested, Development, Industries and Geography of Food, and a lot from them are like, understanding, not really memorising. So then I dunno what to study, cos I felt like I've understood them, but I still need to memorise some things and I was too lazy. Heheh. And then when I saw the questions the first thing I looked for was the assessment (8 marks) question. I chose the questions to do based on this, and I decided to do the questions on Development and Geography of Food, which were the two topics I memorised the most. Hahaha. So yes. And I had extra time again. Which is quite good cos then I finished the paper.

7.5.09 A. Math
I SCREWED THIS ONE. Ohmygosh the questions were difficult, and I wasn't able to do a lot, especially the one on integration, and the differentiation thingy on velocity and all was like hell. And I didn't even know how to simplify! Argh. I hope I still can get an A. Sobs.

8.5.09 (supposedly) Biology
But I don't take bio so I supposedly can stay home, but the damn geography earthquake thing needs to be done once and for all. So we went to school to do the model. We did some already, up until the bracings, but we haven't inserted it into the base yet, and the base is still not drilled. We thought we needed to bring the stupid thing home, including the tools to make it, because we can't work tomorrow cos there's no teacher, and Monday is public holiday so we thought the school is closed. But the school is not closed on Mon. So we'll come back on Mon and do the thing again. Sob sob sob.

I'll have physics paper, chemistry SPA skill 3 and physics SPA skill 3 on Tues, Wed and Thurs respectively. I hope I'll get good marks for this MYE, cos I want to try to apply for DSA to JCs. AMEN!!! Wish me luck people. And I wish you luck for your exams too!! :D


OH AND I AM FALLING IN LOVE WITH DOUGIE AGAIN, COS HE'S THE HOTTEST MAN ON EARTH AND HE'S SO CUTE LIKE HEAVEN!!! XDDDD

after emath and chem midyear paper. phew.

The e.math paper was okay, I finished but I didn't have time to check. I was doing it rather leisurely, I didn't rush at first. But then near the end I was like, "what, so fast?!" then started rushing a bit. hahahah. A bit confused at the matrix question but was ok.

Then after e.math was break. The e.math paper started 1 hour later than scheduled, cos we had temperature taking exercise because of the stupid swine flu, and we're now having it every day, twice. Goodness.

So in the schedule we're supposed to have
e.math 0800-1030
chem 1400-1530

But, because of the temperature taking thing, it's moved 1 hour later. We thought the chem paper will stay at 1400, but then we were wrong. It started at 1500 and finished at 1630. what the hell. They think we have a lot of time to study lit.

And the chem paper was a bit confusing, but I found it do-able, even though I dunno the answer for some questions for certain. But whatever. I hope I'll get 75. :)

And I wasn't angry. I dunno why. Ok maybe I know why but it's irritating. My plan didn't go as planned. Hmph.

Ok, gonna go down to have dinner.....

"too bad"

we are threatened to not be able to go home during the June holidays.

I've bought the air ticket and there's no way I'm gonna be quiet if we're not allowed to go out of Singapore in June later. all because of the stupid swine flu. Not only that I've paid for the ticket, which was S$65 (ok maybe this is not very expensive, but still, this is money), but it's just that I just realized that I miss them.

Really, really miss them. :'(

So I really, really wanna go home later. Cos it's the last time I can go home before the big O's. I want to relax, with them, for the last time before the big thing.

AND I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY SOME PEOPLE CAN'T UNDERSTAND THIS FEELING.

Well, yes, cos you have your family here and not being able to go out of Singapore in June doesn't affect you at all. BUT I DON'T HAVE MY FAMILY HERE AND I WANT TO MEET THEM. NOT ONLY FROM THE STUPID WEBCAM THROUGH THE LOUSY INTERNET CONNECTION M1 PROVIDED HERE.

I wanna go gome. please, please, please let me go.

quick note

CONGRATULATIONS FOR VICTORIA SCHOOL FOR WINNING THE MALAY DEBATE COMPETITION! ESPECIALLY BRIAN YUDHISTIARA & ABIETA BILLY, COS I KNOW BOTH OF YOU, AND YOU'RE FROM SMPK 4 BPK PENABUR, MY PREVIOUS SCHOOL!! :DDD

maybe that's all for now. hahah.
