:D

I call the pink one Key-bun. HAHA.

I just submitted my JPSAE application! I'm so terrified.. If I cut off 2 points from my L1R4 it's just the COP of the poly course I want.. The competition is so tough! They might raise the bar this year. Highly likely with a lot of < 8/9-pointers considering the poly route. And wth 3 days to choose our future?! Plus I haven't even packed my luggage for this fri and I have work the next two days. OMG. And plus the hoodies?! T_T Anyway I feel like vomiting now or something. I swear I'm having a major headache and dizzy spells.

I HOPE I CAN GET INTO MY DREAM COURSE. Keeping my fingers crossed.

3 days to O Level results, 7 days to Hong Kong, 23 days to SHINee, 46 days to Korea! :D

Oh.

2009-09-09T16:49:00.004+08:00

Hi I almost forgot about this blog. Haha. Well I just got a phone call yesterday from South East CDC (?). I'm one of the winners for "I love you Mom and Dad" letter writing competition and I have to go for a prize presentation next Saturday at Northlight School. I hardly win things so I was quite surprised when I got the call. :P Hehe. Good thing is both my parents can attend it. My mom called the organiser herself to confirm with them number of people going. Haha.

Ok so recently.. if you've been following my Facebook or talked to me in person, you'll notice I'm crazy over a new guy (from a new group)! This time it's not a younger one okay. :P

SHINee!
KEY!!! :D
Woot! I'm going crazy. My list has about 30 guys already. >< Right. I should get back to work. :D

Holy moley. Just watch.

2009-08-05T13:37:00.001+08:00

No questions asked, just watch.

2009-08-02T22:04:00.001+08:00

Prelims in 3 days.. I am.. blogging?!

2009-07-28T20:08:00.005+08:00

I want to watch 'Jump!'! Is it so much to ask for? :3 Okay it's not cheap but MOM!! Please let me go! And anyway only my sister is willing to go with me. Am I so deprived? T_T No lah.. Just that my sister only wants us two to go. Haha. xD I'm sorry Ying.. :P

I have prepared 2 testimonials and Mrs Lua is yet to give me my 3rd. In case you all are wondering, "OH MY GOSH! Lixin is so kiasu! Where did she get the testimonials from?", I got them from Mrs Mak (CCA teacher) and Mr Nordon (TKD instructor). :D I have also gotten ready my Best Section award certificate. Recently I read an article on how to present yourself at interviews and not only that, it also talks about how to snag that position/place in the job/school of your choice. The thing that stood out for me was to not be politically correct - just be myself! I raised this issue to my Dad. He said yeah, just say what you have to offer to the school.. and of course why you want to opt for the particular course/school/job in the first place. One of the things that worries me, especially since after I've gone through with the first stage of DPA is.. are they not calling me up because I applied to 3 schools? Did they think I was just desperate to get into any school? This is really scaring me, the more I think about it. Well for now of course my priorities are prelims first, DPA second (I will change that if I get a call). Jasmine and I are recently high-strung creatures (haha) because every single call will send us into spasms. I am ranting, I know. And the only person who will find this interesting is probably.. Jasmine. Yeah. Speaking of her, her birthday is coming! :D

Natalie has gotten my influenze-like illness. Ms Koh wants it. I have ALMOST recovered from it. Seems like it's become a part of my sickness history. I mean, it's caused me to get 7 days MC. How often do you get that? By the way, I am alive and kicking now so stop with the get-well-soons. Hehe. xD No I'm kidding. I like that people are caring for me, I really do. :D Just saying that I am now officially back in school! Like I told Wen Han, I have so much to catch up on. Prelims in 3 days! And I am.. blogging!

On a lighter note, Natasha made me laugh today. :) She came up to be in class and starting laughing. She showed me a piece of paper that said "sexually attractive". "Lixin, your badge says you're spunky! (My SP badge lah..) Do you know what it means to be spunky?" She pointed to the words on the paper and started laughing even harder, almost hysterical, even. Haha. xD Thanks for making my day!

Anxiety rising, prelims are nearing..!

2009-07-14T19:30:00.002+08:00

Shannon just told me he got into SAJC and Jit Xin got into TJC. Wah.. I'm getting really nervous for my DPA! They might call me up any time these days, any of the three schools! What if I have to go for interviews for all three? What if none call me up at all? O_O *pray pray pray pray pray* Argh!

Another wedding this weekend. Last week there was one. I need to go dress shopping! But I'm saving up for an iPod Nano or camera. 9 more weeks (I've calculated)! By then I should be able to have enough for both, or at least one. :D

Updating again soon! Off for a jog.

Ouch.

2009-07-12T00:35:00.010+08:00

Another sigh of relief.

2009-07-09T16:49:00.010+08:00

Chinese orals are over!

This is a follow-up from yesterday's post.

In case any of you are curious as to what I put exactly for DPA, here's what it is:

First choice: NP
Diploma in Tourism & Resort Management (N72)

Second choice: SP
Diploma in Tourism & Resort Management (S55)

Third choice: TP
Diploma in Leisure & Resort Management (T19)

I put in the same reasons for all three. Haha. Here goes!

I chose ____ as my first/second/third choice because:
this is the perfect course for me as I can enjoy the best of both worlds. I'd be able to benefit from meeting new people from in and out of the resort. During the holidays, I helped out in my family business by distributing flyers and had a desk job, sorting clients’ information and learning about customer service. I've also worked in a factory, dealing with customers and learning to work with my colleagues. In fact, I’ve joined an entrepreneurship challenge and a Presentation Skills and Etiquette workshop before. Tourism is very intriguing to me and I'd love to explore all I can about it.

Yup, that's about right. Keeping my fingers crossed! :D

EDIT: I got in for NP's R.E.D Camp this November! :D
R.E.D stands for Your Roadmap to Explore and Discover NP!

XINYI GOT IN TOO!! Hope we'll get into the same tribe (no joke!) xD

What is R.E.D about? (Extract from here)

Is poly life suitable for me? What diploma courses can I choose from? What kinda CCAs can I join?

We know these (and more!) questions are probably racing through your minds right now. Chillax. We’ve got the answers for you at RED Camp on 17-19 November 2009!
What’s happening? RED Camp will give you the opportunity to experience the many courses (over 40!) and CCAs (more than 100!) that Ngee Ann Poly has to offer.

Best of all, it’s a fab time to make new friends. With an expected turnout of 1,800 students from over 140 schools, just imagine how many friends you’ll be adding to your FaceBook by the end of RED Camp!

Sweet! How much is it? Everything is… FREE! Yup, we’re throwing in free lunch and dinner, plus free shuttle service from Clementi, Hougang, Tampines and Woodlands. And, because we wanna show you more love, we’ve even lined up goodie bags and great lucky draw prizes. Oh, not forgetting our Hop Nite dance party, where you can dazzle us with your hot moves!

There’s so much stuff going on that we can’t even list it all out here. (You’ve gotta check out the What’s On section for full details!)

Who can sign up? It’s open to ALL graduating O-level students.

SO GO AND SIGN UP NOW!! Even if you don't want to go to poly, or even NP, just go for fun!! And it's after O Levels!! Best of all, it's free!!

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?! =)

My life feels just right. For now.

2009-07-08T22:48:00.002+08:00

I just went to NP experience. I am at peace even though Chinese orals are tomorrow, I have F&N tomorrow and I'm getting ear piercings this Saturday.. Okay forget the last one. Wanna know why I am at peace?

It's because I just submitted my DPA (Direct Poly Admission) application. Without Jasmine, I couldn't have done it, honestly. She gave me faith ("CHIONG AH!") and convinced me to not worry so much, just do it! All I can do now is brush up on my studies and do my prelims properly. It's that much I can do for myself. DPA is kept aside for now. A huge load is finally lifted off my shoulders. All I can do now is keep my fingers crossed.

THANK YOU JAS!!! :D
I will treat you. Hehe. xD

I feel a sudden calmness wash over me and it's like I can do anything. Perhaps I should be ready for more large-scale things in the future. Am I ready? Time will tell.

For now, tata folks! :D

2009-07-01T20:41:00.002+08:00

No, he is not a young boy this time. Lol. He's a grown man who has super brain power. Hard to explain. Just watch this.

Well, the holidays had to end somehow..

2009-06-28T15:09:00.002+08:00

We've played, we've slacked, we've worked hard. We've had the June "holidays", and now it's over for good. So far the H1N1 cases in Singapore are at an all-time high of 400+ people and I don't think anyone's going to let their guards down. When we return to school, it's also the return of no assemblies, return of no mass gatherings (though I still hope Career Seminar is on) and the last one which I dread - return of thermometers. I almost got the shock of my life when I thought I couldn't find it (obviously I don't want to waste money on another one again) but then I rummaged through my school bag and found it there in the end. Phew. I wonder if the thermometers will really manage to catch any H1N1 flu carriers or victims in the school. If so, everyone will flock to the lucky guy and try to catch the virus for sure. Imagine the look on the teachers' face! Bet they'll also want to do it but have to restrict us from doing so instead. xD

Yesterday I went out with TKD seniors - Alvin, Eldric (who just came back from Switzerland and the main reason we went out was to catch up with him and one another), Jeremy and Jeremy's gf Julia. It was the first time I saw Jeremy in a long time and Julia, well it was the first time I met her. :D I exchanged numbers with her and added her as a friend on FB. She's really a very nice person! (: Next week we're going for Swiss food! I think Eldric wants to compare Singapore's Swiss food with Swiss food from its place of origin. Oh btw, he said people in Switzerland had Chinese fondue! Wonder if anyone can guess what it's known as here. Haha! xD

P/S. I hope no one took that H1N1 comment seriously. :O

2009-06-24T18:26:00.002+08:00

I did the handwriting test analysis that I found out from Jasmine's blog.

Many of the details here really reflect who I truly am, and my thinking and how I handle situations.

The fact that they keep referring to me as Phoon reminds me of Jas and Nat. Lol. xD

Official Handwriting Analysis - Personality Report

This personality profile is based on the writing of Phoon Lixin created at the website: Handwriting Wizard.com - Handwriting University's Official automated personality report creator based on standardized basic personality traits as taught through Handwriting University's Certification Level Program.

My results:

Phoon is moderately outgoing. Her emotions are stirred by sympathy and heart rendering stories. In fact, she can be kind, friendly, affectionate and considerate of others. She has the ability to put herself into the other person's shoes.

Phoon will be somewhat moody, with highs and lows. Sometimes she will be happy, the next day she might be sad. She has the unique ability to get along equally well with what psychology calls introverts and extroverts. This is because she is in between. Psychology calls Phoon an ambivert. She understands the needs of both types. Although they get along, she will not tolerate anyone that is too "far out." She doesn't sway too far one way or the other.

When convincing her to buy a product or an idea, a heart rendering story could mean a great deal to her. She puts herself in the same situation as the person in the story, yet she will not buy anything that seems overly impractical or illogical. Phoon is an expressive person. She outwardly shows her emotions. She may even show traces of tears when hearing a sad story.

Phoon is a "middle-of-the-roader," politically as well as logically. She weighs both sides of an issue, sits on the fence, and then will decide when she finally has to. She basically doesn't relate to any far out ideas and usually won't go to the extreme on any issue.

People that write their letters in an average height and average size are moderate in their ability to interact socially. According to the data input, Phoon doesn't write too large or too small, indicating a balanced ability to be social and interact with others.

Phoon is secretive. She has secrets which she does not wish to share with others. She intentionally conceals things about herself. She has a private side that she intends to keep that way, especially concerning certain events in her past.

Phoon can be defiant. She sometimes has the attitude that if someone doesn't like it the way she is doing it, then they can just "go to hell!" This trait may reveal itself in a rebellious nature that is always ready to resist forces which she thinks are infringing upon her freedom of action.
In reference to Phoon's mental abilities, she has a very investigating and creating mind. She investigates projects rapidly because she is curious about many things. She gets involved in many projects that seem good at the beginning, but she soon must slow down and look at all the angles. She probably gets too many things going at once. When Phoon slows down, then she becomes more creative than before. Since it takes time to be creative, she must slow down to do it. She then decides what projects she has time to finish. Thus she finishes at a slower pace than when she started the project.

She has the best of two kinds of minds. One is the quick investigating mind. The other is the creative mind. Her mind thinks quick and rapidly in the investigative mode. She can learn quicker, investigate more, and think faster. Phoon can then switch into her low gear. When she is in the slower mode, she can be creative, remember longer and stack facts in a logical manner. She is more logical this way and can climb mental mountains with a much better grip.

Phoon's true self-image is unreasonably low. Someone once told Phoon that she wasn't a great and beautiful person, and she believed them. Phoon also has a fear that she might fail if she takes large risks. Therefore she resists setting her goals too high, risking failure. She doesn't have the internal confidence that frees her to take risks and chance failure. Phoon is capable of accomplishing much more than she is presently achieving. All this relates to her self-esteem. Phoon's self-concept is artificially low. Phoon will stay in a bad situation much too long... why? Because she is afraid that if she makes a change, it might get worse. It is hard for Phoon to plan too far into the future. She kind of takes things on a day to day basis. She may tell you her dreams but she is living in today, with a fear of making a change. No matter how loud she speaks, look at her actions. This is perhaps the biggest single barrier to happiness people not believing in and loving themselves. Phoon is an example of someone living with a low self-image, because their innate self-confidence was broken.

One way Phoon punishes herself is self directed sarcasm. She is a very sarcastic person. Often this sarcasm and "sharp tongued" behavior is directed at herself.

Phoon has a tendency to put things off, Phoon procrastinates. She sometimes pretends to be busy, so she will not have to do whatever she is putting off. She is often late to appointments or deadlines. This usually leads to a great amount of effort at the last minute to meet the deadline. Procrastination is an important factor as it relates to her output on the job or at school. Remember, Phoon will put it off until later. Procrastination is easily overcome through a simple stroke adjustment in the handwriting.

Phoon has a healthy imagination and displays a fair amount of trust. She lets new people into her circle of friends. She uses her imagination to understand new ideas, things, and people.

-

To sum all this up, I guess I am basically:

1) moderately outgoing
2) fair (not as in skin tone-wise)
3) a procrastinator
4) afraid of making mistakes
5) manic depressive
6) a healthy imaginator
7) sarcastic
8) defiant
9) imaginative

Ta.

This is a really really interesting video the lecturers let us watch during the Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge two days ago. No matter how many times I watched this, it still manages to send chills down my spine. And no, it's not a horror movie.

2009-06-04T20:45:00.001+08:00

For Jasmine - Phoon Lixin

This is for you, Jas. Sorry for some wrong parts, but I did my best. I love you too! Cheer up k. :D

NEW MOON TRAILER!

2009-06-02T16:50:00.000+08:00

Don't watch unless you want to be spoilt!
We all do, right? :D
THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON trailer

Indulgence

2009-05-11T20:24:00.002+08:00

I cannot decide on what MP3 player to get! I want one that can view videos, has a lot of memory and is great apperance. Suggestions, anyone?

My mom is pissed.

2009-04-22T20:29:00.003+08:00

Not with me, but with a conwoman. Stupid cheater, trying to cheat my mom's money. Can't blame her for being angry, obviously. SHE'S SMARTER THAN YOU! I think it went something like this, though I can't know for sure because my mom was talking in phrases since she was fuming, but I'll try my best:

Stupid Conwoman: "I am calling from the Supreme Court. You did not attend a trial on the 13th of April when we sent you an order so now you will receive another order. On top of that, you have to meet us up and we will tell you what to do in order to avoid going to jail." (I'm guessing having to pay a 'fine' but my mom didn't elaborate.)

Mom: "..."

SC: "Also, you need to give me your I/C number for identification purposes."

Mom: "If you are from the Supreme Court, aren't you supposed to know my I/C number already?"

SC: "..." (I don't know exactly what happened here, but my mom said the woman was angry.)

Mom: "Oh, and which department are you from?"

SC: "..."

Naturally, my mom reported this to the police and the police said she wasn't the only one who reported about this. Hope they catch this filthy bunch of people soon.

And that's all for today. :D

Videos + today + reflections

2009-04-20T20:23:00.008+08:00

These videos had me totally zoned out. They are ab-so-lute-ly cool. Where do people come up with these stuff anyway? Which reminds me, 4 months ago during the December holidays my family drove past a flash mob at Orchard Road, which is something like the Frozen Grand Central video featured below. Watch them! :D

-----------------------------------------------------

Today was a surprisingly relaxing day for a Monday. During Lit, my group presentation went smoothly (with little bumps here and there) but Shirin and Aaron improvised. Nice! Then during English the lesson was quiet as we did our essays. I chose "Marriage" but didn't know what to write so ended up with only two paragraphs. =x Sorry Mrs Ezekiel! Then it was followed by Chinese. I felt confident I could follow the lesson because Xu Lao Shi was going through oral and then for some reason the lesson ventured into how Chinese is an important subject because we would do business in China in the future, even though many in the class didn't agree on that. It started to rain outside I think, which made my day. Coupled by the fact that Xu Lao Shi was standing right in front of me, I felt compelled to do Chinese because she kept stressing on the fact that China is an increasingly advanced country and her voice made an impact on my dejected soul which was reluctant to do Chinese before. She held up my pencilcase, not to show the class what it looked like, but as an example to how many things are made in China (not that my pencilcase is), but as an example, like I said. I was surprised that I took Chinese for granted before and never noticed its value. She also emphasised on the two most powerful countries in the world - China, as mentioned, and America. I made the connection as she wrote down what I was thinking too - I am currently inclined in both of those languages.. so why did I take for granted my knowledge of both before? So many billion people in the world don't know either or even neither, and yet, here I am, born with the ability to know both, to be able to surround myself with people who speak and use both languages, but yet I don't treasure them. What have I been doing for the past 15 or so years of my life? My PSLE Chinese was an "A", and now I'm merely scraping past a "C". Have I wasted my education? Natalie memorised 10 idioms. Me? Slacking. Slacking.

O Levels means 4 months more hard work = School I want to go to = Job I want = Future I want
as compared to
O Levels means 4 months more slacking = School I don't want to go to = Job I despise = Future ruined.

If you were me too, which one would you choose? And this does not only apply to Chinese. All my other subjects are equally important. Where am I heading?

Mr Yap talked to my class last week, and it gave me a wake-up call. He made me realise that out of so many people in Singapore who want the same school, job and future as me, what would make me stand out if I continue this way? Nothing. A pathetic piece of nothing.

*back to today's lessons*

Continuing from where I left off, Maths was pretty relaxed after all that rushing for time to finish both textbook homework and worksheet homework. Mrs Lee went through a newspaper comic (yesterday's Foxtrot comic) and article (English lesson? Haha.) about elite school stereotypes and neighbourhood school stereotypes. I think people subconsciously develop particular mindsets about this or that person, like if I told you someone was a nerd (no offence), you would probably think big glasses and burying in books all the time. Isn't that true? You know yourself. It's sad that people stereotype but hey, I hate to say this but that's life. Take Susan Boyle, for example. She's so brave to sing her best even when people make fun of her. She's also humble and cute! xD Ok moving on.. History was 40 minutes of massaging classmates, re-arranging 4 pairs of students' seating arrangement and debating with Mrs Hua about school rules and how they affect our studies. Don't wanna go into detail because this happens almost every time and I am sick of it. Last but not least, Social Studies was free period with Clarissa and Nat doing a bit of source-based questions. Nothing much.

I shall end of with the a video of the amazing one-half of the Singaporean twin boys who made it into VIENNA BOYS CHOIR! They invited Nigel (the one in the video) and his twin brother to audition there (do you know how hard it is to even apply? They INVITED HIM!! So privileged!) when their eldest sister posted this video on YouTube then put a link on their official website's (http://www.wsk.at/) guestbook and asked them to watch him sing. They're ten-year old boys, mind you, and they like classical music. WHERE CAN YOU FIND BOYS WHO LIKE CLASSICAL MUSIC AT THAT AGE?! Anyway I'll let you watch in peace. Ciao!

-------------------------------------------------------

P/S. I am not a paedophile, people! xD Esp. to a few of my friends. =P

If you want to be happy in life but you spend time worrying about being happy, are you still happy?

2009-04-18T17:07:00.002+08:00

We got bronze. Not unexpected, but yet some people who didn't put in a lot of effort cried. I heard that schools that got Gold with Honours practiced everyday of their own accord. 3 practices a week only and we complain. Who should be crying anyway?

I'm thinking of setting up a YouTube account that features home-made short films. My sisters and mom are in. I should consult Longxiang and Rizuan about this. Anyone?

I'm improving a little in Taekwondo, though not yet my sister or Weijie's standard yet, obviously. I need to memorise Kuro (?) Poomsae. JIAYOU! Tomorrow is Grading and we're hosting so Sir Nordon told seniors to go and help. Will be there the whole morning. Hope I can set aside some time for F&N. 3 pages of Decision Making + 15 pages of R&D. CHIONG AH!

I'm downloading my favourite movie soundtracks a bulk at a time. So far I have August's Rhapsody, Let The Right One In, Oliver Twist, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and a few more I can't remember. I know they're stored in my computer but I'm lazy to check. :P Any to recommend me? I'm looking for classical, mostly, in case you can't tell.

I still can't believe 4E4 is bonded in a weird way. It always comes up with something outrageous to make me laugh. The other time someone wrote "Literature rocks - thanks to Mrs Cheong" then Mr Alwi walked past and then he said "Literature rocks" to her when she was on the way to our classroom. Lol.

Brb, going for singing class!

I am going M.I.A!!!

2009-03-24T20:54:00.003+08:00

In case you don't know, it stands for missing in action. Lawl.
Anyway I have decided to do a few things to rev myself up for prelims and other challenges that come my way:

1) Revamp my laptop wallpaper into this:

Click for larger picture.. I think? And yes, those three things on the top right are countdown timers.
2) Take Mr Boo (principal)'s advice and study at least 3 hours a day, or else make up for it on weekends. This is going to happen until Speech Day is over because I have band.
3) Use the computer for recreational usage only during weekends.
4) Constantly push myself and be discliplined.
5) Make a schedule for what I am planning to study.
6) Be happy in whatever I do.
7) Re-think my goals often and make sure I keep up.
And many more. Until I find time to update again, I will be on MSN only when I am online (except e-learn stuff) and during weekends.

Till then, sayonara!

LOOK HERE!!!

Twilight	Let The Right One In
Bella: How old are you? Edward: Seventeen. Bella: How long have you been seventeen? Edward: A while.	Oskar: How old are you? Eli: Twelve... more or less. Eli: What about you? Oskar: Twelve years, eight months and nine days. What do you mean, "more or less"? Oskar: When's your birthday? Eli: I don't know. Oskar: Don't you celebrate your birthday? Your parents... they've got to know. Eli: [Eli looks down on the ground] Oskar: Then you don't get any birthday presents, do you? Eli: No.
Isabella Swan: [to Edward] You're impossibly fast. And strong. Your skin is... pale white, and ice cold. Your eyes change color, and sometimes you speak like you’re from a different time. You never eat or drink anything. You don't go into the sunlight.	Oskar: Are you a vampire? Eli: I live off blood... [pause] Eli: Yes. Oskar: Are you... [pause] Oskar: Dead? Eli: No. Can't you tell? Oskar: Aren’t you cold? Eli: No. Oskar: Why not? Eli: I guess I’ve forgotten how.
Edward Cullen: What's in Jacksonville? Isabella Swan: How did you know about that? Edward Cullen: You didn't answer my question. Isabella Swan: Well, you don't answer any of mine so... I mean, you don't even say hi to me. Edward Cullen: [pause] Hi.	Eli: [standing outside the door] You have to invite me in. Oskar: What happens if I don't? Oskar: What happens if you walk in anyway? Oskar: [feels the air between himself and Eli] Is there something in the way?
Edward Cullen: I'm the world's most dangerous predator. Everything about me invites you in. My voice, my face, even my smell. As if I would need any of that. As if you could outrun me. As if you could fight me off. I'm designed to kill.	Oskar: Who are you? Eli: I'm like you. Oskar: What do you mean? Eli: [accusing tone] What are you staring at? Well? Eli: Are you looking at me? Eli: [points her finger at Oskar] So scream! Squeal! Eli: Those were the first words I heard you say. Oskar: I don't kill people. Eli: No, but you'd like to. If you could... To get revenge. Right? Oskar: Yes. Eli: Oskar, I do it because I have to. Eli: Be me, for a while. [pause] Eli: Please Oskar... Be me, for a little while.
Edward: I only said it would be better if we weren't friends, not that I didn't want to be. Bella: What does that mean? Edward: It means if you're smart... you'll stay away from me. Bella: Okay, let's say for argument's sake that I'm not smart.	Eli: Just so you know, I can’t be your friend. Oskar: What do you mean? Eli: Does there have to be a reason? That’s just the way it is.
Bella: You know, your mood swings are kinda giving me whiplash.	Oskar: Are you so sure that I want to be your friend?
Bella: Look, You gotta give me some answers. Edward: Yes. No. To get to the other side. Uh, 1.77245... Bella: I don't need to know what the square root of pi is. Edward: You knew that?	[Scene in the playground/jungle gym –first time they meet] Oskar: Do you live here? Eli: Yeah... I live right here, in the jungle gym. Oskar: Seriously, where do you live? Eli: [points to her house] Next door to you. Oskar: How do you know where I live? Eli: [No answer]
Bella: About three things I was absolutely positive: First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him-and I didn't know how dominant that part might be-that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.	Oskar: Would you be my girlfriend?
Bella: [freaking out] You can't leave me! Edward: Shh... Where else would I go? [he leans in to kiss her forehead]	Oskar & Eli kiss
Bella: [to Edward] I'd rather die than to stay away from you.	Eli: [Vomits out a sweet that Oskar bought for her and looks about to cry] Eli: Sorry. Oskar: [Walks up to Eli and hugs her] Eli: Oskar… Do you like me? Oskar: Yeah, a lot.

I wanna meet Kåre Hedebrant! :D:D:D

Unless you have been living under a rock, you would know that a new vampire movie in town is kicking Twilight's butt - and not just once. Wait a minute.. Hold on a sec! That makes everyone I know! Tsk tsk. Well since you have no idea what this movie is all about, I shall be a nice person and give you a short intro. :D

"Let The Right One In:
A fragile, anxious boy, 12-year-old Oskar is regularly bullied by his stronger classmates but never strikes back. The lonely boy´s wish for a friend seems to comes true when he meets Eli, also 12, who moves in next door to him with her father. A pale, serious young girl, she only comes out at night and doesn´t seem affected by the freezing temperatures. Coinciding with Eli´s arrival is a series of inexplicable disappearances and murders... One man is found tied to a tree, another frozen in the lake, a woman bitten in the neck. Blood seems to be the common denominator - and for an introverted boy like Oskar, who is fascinated by gruesome stories, it doesn´t take long before he figures out that Eli is a vampire. But by now a subtle romance has blossomed between Oskar and Eli, and she gives him the strength to fight back against his aggressors. Oskar becomes increasingly aware of the tragic, inhuman dimension of Eli´s plight, but cannot bring himself to forsake her. Frozen forever in a twelve-year-old´s body, with all the burgeoning feelings and confused emotions of a young adolescent, Eli knows that she can only continue to live if she keeps on moving. But when Oskar faces his darkest hour, Eli returns to defend him the only way she can..."

Okay, so that wasn't VERY short.. :P
ANYWAY! The point is the movie rocks. And I have made a wallpaper of printscreens I took while watching the movie. Hey, I couldn't help it! Oskar (Kåre Hedebrant) is tooooooo cute! The best part is he's my sec two sister's age and it's his first acting job and he's sooooo good already! :O LOOK AT HIS PRETTY BOY FACE!!!! He's THE ultimate handsome guy. :D

This is just the main picture. The rest are below. :D

Hehe, I know most of the pictures are just Oskar, but I can't help it ok! He's my current favourite actor! *swoon* I have a lot more pictures and I wanna make them into handphone themes but ownskin.com has got a problem so I'm trying to find other alternatives. For now, I'll just hyperventilate over prettyboy. :D heh. Bye all!

I want to..

I want to be someone else or I'll explode.
From: Talk Show Host by Radiohead

I am becoming increasingly irritable, finding the faults in everything and everyone. For one, I badly want to criticise and pinpoint many things but I have to hold back because in the end it will end up in an argument, so what's the point? Then again, I'm the one who wants to bottle everything up anyway. Hah, what a joke. I block out people who tell me I am emotional. I find ways to immerse myself in depression. I don't see the point in giving my all if I get repeatedly disappointed. I cannot bring myself to be happy when I know it's just a facade. It's a very Chinese thing, to hide your true emotions. Maybe I am so extremely perfectionist to the point where I can't bear to take risks for fear of striking out at the last minute so I just give up completely. I feel like I'm taking things for granted and at the same time being taking for granted. I just want to blend with the walls - forget my physical existence.

It's wrong It's wrong It's wrong It's wrong It's wrong It's wrong. Then why am still doing this?

Life is so wonderful.. not.

2009-02-02T23:02:00.004+08:00

I'm not trying to imply that life isn't wonderful, but obviously nothing is perfect and I find loopholes in mine like you do too in yours.. Okay, currently there's one super duper ultra exciting thing that's going on!!

I decided to get a Toshiba PORTÉGÉ M800 for my laptop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

Saving up for something is sad.. but such is the reality of life. In the end when you get something it's worth it. :D

I got this from Jas' blog and it's very cool, everyone - click here now to do it!

Name: Leah Phoon

You are trying desperately to prove yourself. You are going at it hammer and tongs in order to get your own way. You oppose any sort of restriction or opposition to your own point of view in the belief that this could prove you how self determined you are.

You are feeling very vulnerable at this time. Nothing seems to be going in the right direction - business wise, private-life wise, everything. You need some emotional security and an environment which could possibly provide fewer problems, but the way you are feeling you can't be bothered even to make the effort.

You feel tired - worn out and listless. The last thing that you want to do is to be in an open conflict with those around you that are forever tormenting you. What to do? That's the rub. You are feeling that you are being choked - unable to breathe.

All of your stress arises from lack of mutual understanding. The existing situation is unsatisfactory and you feel that you are unable to improve it without the help and co-operation of others. The need for understanding and for affectionate 'give and take' remains unsatisfied. You are experiencing the feeling of being 'handcuffed' - 'tied down' - 'hindered' - 'restrained' and this untenable situation is giving rise to impatience, irritability and the desire to escape from it all.

Perhaps in the distant past your trust and belief in your fellow man was misplaced and you can now no longer accept anything as it appears to be. You are untrusting and you insist that before you commit yourself to anything, you examine the pro's and con's with critical discrimination. The situation has now progressed to one where you are apt to disagree yet not make any form of constructive criticism to every suggestion that may be put to you. As a result you are in limbo. There is a saying that goes 'The past does not equal tomorrow'. Think about it - and let go.

2009-01-19T21:45:00.002+08:00

I have discovered that I learn better while listening to classical music! Superteens was right! :O I am so amazed. Well not really because it applies to most people and I'm just typing this for lack of better things to say. *guilty look*

I can't wait for the New Moon movie!!!!!

This Thursday the sec one juniors are coming, and Sermei requested for three juniors. I think this is highly unlikely because there are only 20+ of them. If they give three to flutes, then there're be little left for other sections. Hmm..

These few days are moving at a slow pace and I am finding life harder day by day.. Time management is going to be very crucial for me at this point.. O levels this year! And I am getting Chinese tuition and joining back Taekwondo for good. I'm applying this Sunday. Can't wait to go back - I'm going to earn my black belt!!! :D Thanks family for supporting me in this! Heh.

My sister got into Manjusri main band after they told her to play concert B flat only. What the heck!! Lol. But anyway good for her, as long as she's happy, I'm happy! This means I'm going to compete with her in SYF this year. Woo, scary. >=)

K update again next time.

I am (almost) a Superteen! :D

2009-01-08T22:44:00.002+08:00

Today was one of the most inspirational experiences of my 15 years in life, because there was Superteen workshop!! It helps students like me (hehe) to succeed in life - 5%!!!! - and also teach us studying methods and life lessons. It may sound cheesy the way I put it.. but it's really beneficial I feel. No matter what the interruptions and setbacks I face now.. I know I can handle it, because if I can't, I MUST!! *big smile*

Reminder to self: Paste inspirational/motivational posters at study table.

One of the service analysts (as my dad calls the people who stand in front and lecture/teach workshops) is my idol already! His name is Peter. I mean, he's so amazing he's my role model. Here's his website: http://www.peter-lau.com/ I shall not go into details about him, but all I can say is he's really a good example for 改过自新 ("bad turned good" in mandarin). I really look up to people like that. There are two more amazing service analysts, one named Mr Ernest Wong (the guy who founded Superteens) and Ken. All three of them made the whole sec 4 express crack up with laughter - trust me, not many people can do that - and keep us under control at the same time. Lol. The workshop will be from today (Thursday) to Saturday. Too bad it clashes with the poly open houses.. Or else I would go for Ngee Ann Poly's one. Oh well, at most go after O levels.

I've wondered how did today's parents deal with problems today's teenagers face.. until I remember that it's the computer age, a new kind of leisure and relaxation is formed. Last time (not very long ago actually), they didn't have computers or coloured TVs and all that. So I feel it's very unfair when they chide us for spending too much time on it and becoming addicted to it. Some of us aren't even leeched onto the computer like they think! And then when they chance upon their children's blogs they happen to see things like "___ sucks" or they just lament about daily life and the problems their families are facing, which is ironic because they're talking about the people who are reading their blogs. Whose fault is it? I have no idea. On the other hand, when the parents request to read their children's blog, the child doesn't feel comfortable letting them do that, because of this simple reason - privacy. So instead of preventing their parents from reading their blogs, it has the opposite effect! The skeptical parents suspect something is amiss and wonder if the children are talking about them and then go online to read it every single day of their lives. Whose fault is it? This isn't even a question of whose at fault.. How would you like it if I looked into your diary even when you declined my request to do so? It's simple as a word - privacy. How come people just don't get that? To make things short, the adults use the computer for work and end up disliking it while their children turn to it for games and end up liking it. They should have seminars for adults and children about understanding each other better in terms of the computer. Seriously.

Skipping the above if you want, I shall move on to my life now.

So.. The first two days of school were quite expected and.. same. Everything seemed the same to me, except that I was sec 4. Oh crap.. O levels. I have 3 new teachers this year for the O level subjects - English, Literature, Physics. Gotta read To Kill A Mockingbird.

Family meetings
House deco
Neatness
Academics
Shouting

I want to get it all out of my head. But how?

On a lighter note,
1) Jas and I are getting (fanmade) Alice Cullen chokers!
2) I have (finally, I know) decided on Leah as my English name. No more changes. :D Btw, the name's got nothing at all to do with Twilight.
3) I am going to be sweeeeeet 16 this year, woohoo!

First things first, tag replies:
Xinyi: Pumpkin? ._O
Alwin: Thanks. (:
Kaylie: ^^ Libera rocks my socks!
Jasmine: 1) on blogskin - Thank you!! 2) on Bella's Lullaby - Yeah, but you gotta admit, with Edward, he can hum any tune and make anyone fall asleep! xD 3) on missing me - I MISS YOU TOO!! D: Can't wait to see you again. Hopefully before school re-opens!

I know the title of this blog post is random, but I just took a "Which Twilight Character Are You" quiz on Facebook and I ended up with.. Jacob Black. Anyway, movin' on..

I know who my form teacher, Lit teacher and English teacher next year is. (no prizes for those who know or think they know) Yes, it's Mrs Ezekiel, my Lit teacher this year. Surprise surprise? Good thing she's strict. Her target for my class is to get at least a B3 for Lit O levels. Hmm..

My sisters and I are (unofficially) going to set up a band! Private joke of the family:

Jonas sisters
Okay, I'm lame enough to come up with that, but one can't help but dream right? I mean, there are three of us, and three of them! (actually there're four of them, but only three are in the band, so..) :D

I finally bought the Choirboys CD! Lol.

Updating soon again with pictures. Sorry for the delay!

Hellooooooooo

2008-12-12T12:35:00.007+08:00

I watched the Twilight movie this week, on the 9th of December!
The movie was just as I expected, but then my expectations weren't very high in the first place.
-SPOILER!-So overall the movie was pretty much as I thought it would be.. nothing exceptionally special, but my favourite scene was the baseball scene. The song Supermassive Black Hole by Muse fit in nicely to the mood. Also, Alice's legs came up all ballet-like before she gracefully flung the ball at the batter(s) and the thunderstorm aided in the Cullens playing baseball, especially when the bat came in contact with the ball. BAM!! WHAM!! Woosh! It was fan-tas-tic! Kudos to Edward and Emmett when they crashed into each other mid-air too. The sound effects were incredible. On the other hand, there were scenes I did not understand and cause me to dislike the movie a little. The part where Bella brushed up against Edward in the parking lot and then they both walked to the forest together was.. weird. Wouldn't anyone notice them leaving school grounds? It didn't really make sense. Another thing I found to my distaste was the part where Edward showed Bella his skin sparkling in the sunlight. I don't know if anyone noticed, but I heard glittering shimmering sounds! I mean, come on! It's not like his skin glitters in fairy dust. What's up with the effects?! O_O All in all, the script seemed to follow the book only 20 to 30% - no joke. The words the characters spoke were most of the time not in the book at all! That really saddened me.. I wanted to hear the words exactly spoken by the characters or else the flow wouldn't work. Thankfully, the humans were surprisingly good. They were no doubt comic relief and added humour to the story. Without them the movie would be dull as hell. Oh, and I loved the prom scene too. And the ending. That wasn't in the book but provided a good insight into what the next movie would be about.
-END SPOILER!-
I loved Bella's Lullaby though. I have it in my MP3 now and I want to learn how to play it on the piano like this guy (he learnt it by ear!):

I bought New Dawn already! Woohoo!

Christmas time! (:

2008-12-07T09:07:00.013+08:00

WOOHOO! As you all know, Christmas is in THREE WEEKS' time! 'Tis the season to be jolly, and I want to keep myself jolly by thinking of things I want. (hehe) Get ready!

ONE Okay, so you all know I am a HUGE FAN of the Vienna Boys Choir so this should not come as a shock to you people. Sad thing is, I can only buy this bag online. HERE.

TWO

Finally, I am talking about Libera on my blog! If you haven't guessed yet, Libera is a choir. It's mostly made up of boys from South London, St. Philips Boys Choir. Like the Vienna Boys Choir, their voices are a-ma-zing! Here's a video of them singing one of their better songs:

This song is Orinoco Flow, originally by Enya. I can't get over how the voices of Libera harmonise. It's so soothing.. (actually I gave up watching Gossip Girl just recently because I was watching Libera videos on YouTube instead xD) The album New Dawn (above) can be bought on Amazon HERE. I tried asking CD shops here but so far, no luck yet D: Doesn't the album title sound like New Moon and Breaking Dawn combined? Lol.

THREE

This is starting to become a Libera post. Lol. This album HERE. Libera's official website album shop: HERE. If I could, I would buy all of their albums. Save save save!

FOUR

Get proper headphones. There's one kind where the arch-thingy is thinner. I heard from Lucas that CD Rama in Tampines sells it for about $20+. I'm hoping I can get my hands on it. Keeping my fingers crossed!

FIVE

Get this album HERE. I love The Choirboys! Two of them are my age and one of them is one year younger. The blonde is cuter now too, and he's my age! I searched him on Facebook. HAHA. I know I'm crazy, but I really like their music! Can't blame me for being obsessive. xD

Okay, so this pretty much sums up a vague idea of what I want for Christmas this year! Hehe. I'm going off for a wedding now. Hasta la vista!

A breath of fresh air

2008-12-05T15:01:00.008+08:00

Once again, I have prevailed! It took me 4 hours to get this skin done, but still I can't figure out how to get the dark green part above to come together with the bottom part (this box). It's supposed to look like this:

But all in all, I am satisfied with what I have done because this is one of the skins which I feel can really bring out my personality. :D

Will update again soon!

[EDIT]
Yay! I finally fixed the problem! (Even though I have a hunch that between that time no one visited my blog anyway I shall still post an edit)

Yesterday I went to Xinyi's house to study. Talked about going to Ngee Ann Poly together. (:

Tomorrow will be the 7th singing lesson and I have to sing Colours of the Wind memorised. Hope I can do it properly since I've been doing the same song for the past few weeks. Dang, this reminds me - I just ate chocolate! Hope my voice will be fine tomorrow. ><

Upcoming concerts are those of VJC and TJC band. I only found out my sister's going for the VJC one today. Thank you Lorraine for inviting me to watch Twilight premiere next Tuesday! (: I can't wait!

I have compiled a list of hot guys! So far, it's 15 and still counting! Lol. I feel like posting my choices here. Should I? Hmm..

P/S. Have fun in Hong Kong, Jas! :D

Okay.. so for the next few days I won't be touching the computer, starting from this Saturday. I'm going to Batam from Saturday to Monday (3 days), and then on Tuesday there's the band exchange and then Lorraine and Natalie are coming to my house to overnight and the next day we have band camp from Wednesday to Friday. Oh, and next Sunday it's Ara's birthday party. Can't wait! :D Whew, but just thinking about these makes my head spin! Oh well, gotta stay positive!

I have decided not to have an English name. Too expensive.. and most people convinced me to stick to just my name anyway.

Here's a nice movie I wanna share: Kit Kittredge: An American Girl

It's a family movie about a girl who lived with her family and friends through the Great Depression and finding herself in the process.

Have fun watching!

My dad is weird like me. In a good way, at least.

He was supposed to come back home next week, but..

HE CAME BACK TODAY JUST TO SURPRISE MY SISTER ON HER BIRTHDAY!!!! :D

He is such a great person, no? :D
And he's behind me asking me if I've seen what he bought for me from Italy. HAHA. I said no, so I'm going to look at it soon.

My agenda for this holiday, not that it's finalised or anything:

Do well for singing course
Practice (to perfection) SYF piece as far as I can go with my section
Earn money
Make my ic (should I include my "english" name?)
Jog every weekend
Find my sense of fashion
Be happier
Repair the computer
Learn to be more independent
Save money
To find inner peace. Seriously.

In life I am repeatedly disappointed. When was the last time I was truly happy? I am becoming a self-conscious hypocrite, a person who stereotypes people. It's true. I need to be happier.. this depression is killing me. I'm finding faults with the smallest matters, with the stupidest of situations. I'm being overly sensitive and then realising that it's ME that's too afraid to be accepted by people. Not that I want to be liked by others that much. It's so scary to live up to others' expectations. Like, "Oh she looks so arrogant, she must have an attitude problem." now.. or how about "She's such an attention seeker." when I was in primary school. There are many many aspects of my life that I want to erase. But I cannot. The unhappiest, most unpleasant moments I keep only to myself. I.. smile to myself when I think about dying and thus forgetting my worries. Then sadly remembering it's reality, and wanting to give up on my responsibilies before deciding that my family needs me. And it'll go back to smiling to myself.. that will be when the phrase "rollercoaster ride of emotions" truly hits me. What's the point in telling people this ISN'T an emo post when it is? As unhappy as I am, I'm still human. And we're all humans! There's no use denying this is a self-inflicting entry in which I talk about my.. weird sad state. In the end I'll still feel better anyway, right? Ugh the human facades.. I cannot stand them. I would rather a straightforward person tell me my weaknesses and whatever than people who are afraid of hurting my feelings and thus causing themselves guilt and fear. What. Is. The. Point? Come on, it's not like we all really like every single person around us? We have feelings! It's only normal to dislike certain people and like others. Just try to accomodate and stuff, why don't we? Behaviours of humans are so amusing to watch.. I just wished I wasn't one. Sorry dad, and mom. This is what I feel. I still love you guys. :D

..No I'm not on the verge of doing the unthinkable.

Or am I?

I need to stop listening to whatever they tell me. Accusations, accusations, accusations. Sick of all these. Just shut up.

So for the past.. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, SEVEN years, I could not use it and had to use this 512MB Samsung one. HOWEVER, today I finally managed to put songs into my phone with the help of SAMSUNG MUSIC STUDIO! :D I shall present my old MP3, a Samsung YH-820!

It's 4GB, btw. LOL. I'm off to download more songs. xD

Holy cow! Yesterday I went to two music schools - The Music Clinic and Lee Wei Song School of Music - to look around for my singing course. And boy oh boy, the standards were high. Besides two studios, LWS had 5 classrooms and a composing studio! The thing is, you need to know how to play the piano first before you can compose. The school is nice, but if I had a choice I would choose The Music Clinic. There are about 4 classrooms and are pretty condusive. The founder, Mr Peter Tan, told my mom and me that Mediacorp recently asked them for I think people from the Music Clinic aged between 12 to 15 if I'm not wrong to go for open castings for Schoolhouse Rockz (the Kids Central series). So cool! Lol. Anyways I'm still looking around for more options..

Later I'm going to Escape! Theme Park with NATALIE! Then we'll go straight away to the class bbq. Woohoo!

A) People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blogs.

2008-09-08T16:19:00.002+08:00

I am going to talk about things at random now. You have been warned.

OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE LES CHORISTES IS ON ARTS CENTRAL LATER AT 10PM! I AM SO GONNA WATCH IT!!!! (but first I have to study) You better watch it too, whoever you are reading this right now. >=) Nah just kidding. :D But it's seriously nice! Well to me anyway.. Ah I don't care, it's so nice and it has inspired me to do something. (Learn French)

OKAY moving on - Just now Yingxin and I watched a few "Jonas Sisters" parodies of the Jonas Brothers' music video Burnin' Up. And... I was telling her that we could do a more convincing one. IF we wanted to. Which is not very possible as one of us doesn't want to do it in the first place. So... We are trying to persuade that person to do it with us. *keeping our fingers crossed* But the thing is, we have to get a lot of equipment and do a lot of editing before posting in on YouTube. For now, we are lacking in singing (haha) skills, playing skills and the like. So it's just a passing fancy that we are doing this I guess..

Current obsession: JEAN-BAPTISTE MAUNIER! I know I can't understand what he's saying, but he is such a cool person! :D And yes, you guessed right, he stars in Les Choristes.

2008-09-04T22:42:00.004+08:00

Last.... um, last... I mean this Monday (see! short term memory!) I went out with about 9 friends from 6F 2005 - Xinyi, Nicole, Shiqi, Shijia, Weicong, Alwin, Bangming, Xueyuan and Hanwei. (Hope I didn't miss out anyone's name) I met Xinyi very early, at around 11 and we ate and walked around Bedok gawking at phones. (Speaking of phones, stay for further updates!) Then finally we went to Bedok MRT to wait for them at 2. And then.... we had to go to Chinatown (!!!) to meet the rest of them who didn't meet us at Bedok, including Mrs Yang (pri 6 Chinese teacher). She treated us to Macs. Hehe.

Fast forward to the movie at Vivo - Wall-E!

Omj it was so good that I felt so sad when the movie was over (I guess all good things come to an end). The storyline was great, the characters were so adorable and ah, the list goes on. And on. Somehow or other, the rest of them (humans) didn't agree with me. So, I guess that makes.. one of us? Aw geez. WALL-E IS SO GOOD YOU SHOULD WATCH IT PEOPLE! (like who'll listen to me anyway. Just what am I thinking?!)

Here comes the phone part I promised you! So I got my new phone just this Tuesday! It's a white Sony Ericsson w580i. (:

My mom bought it for me at $98! It was originally $178, but after the discounts and trading in of my old phone (I will miss you!) it became $98. The salesperson even threw in a free handphone casing, one sheet of screen protector and two pouches (one of which I gave to Jas, and the other one to my sis) for me. Not forgetting that they were so very nice and sweet people! Even my mom asked them for their names and laughed together like old friends. Btw, I bought the phone at Bedok, at a shop called H2 Hub. Ask me for the contact number! And the thing is that before going to Bedok, we tried going to Parkway, and both shops we asked there had absolutely no more stock for all three of the models I had in mind initially! (Samsung F250, SE S500i & SE w580i) So because of this, it had my mom and I going round and round in circles (okay lah, mostly me dragging her everywhere to scour the place, but still) just to find one phone! I feel so guilty now because she sacrificed her time for me. So to make up for her effort, I shall take very very very very good care of this phone, to prove my thanks. And also do many more obvious things a daughter would do to love a mom lah. (No worries, dad, you have not been forgotten - and I know you read my blog! Wahaha)

Know what? I think I'm very random nowadays. -snorts-

2008-08-31T22:33:00.003+08:00

LOOK WHAT I FOUND! :D

Wahoo! Haha. So nostalgic...

Today was so.. unusual! Made many discoveries with Jas. Haha. Will put up more pics once Kaylie blogs about dinner today! Woohoo! Probably going out with 6F people tomorrow. :D

Argh! Still got assessment books to complete. ><

2008-08-30T22:36:00.007+08:00

I just asked Aaron which phone he thought was nicer:

Thought I had to share this:

Me: eh aaron which phone nicer ah? left or right?
Aaron: right. coz its always right.
Me: ....
Me: right..
Aaron: the right choice is made at the right times
Aaron: lame enough?
Me: very. you're almost crippled. keep up the good work.
Aaron: but right one is nicer
Aaron: really
Aaron: its more polished

His ten rules of countering sarcasm:

#1 its easy to counter...just use ur brains
#2 say the opposite of what a person says
#3 if rule 2 don't work then use rule 4
#4 if rule 2 works then continue using rule 5#
#5 use any means necessary to think of a word to counter 'their' sacarsm
#6 if u cant think of any? then try rule 7
#7 use any opposite fact u can think of... weather its crazy or ridiculous... just use it
#8 ask me for advice
#9 if all above dont apply, then i am not called kumar
#10 if the above all apply n works, give me my advice fee
Lixin: *smacks your face*
Aaron: * smacks myself*

The last part wasn't a rule but I thought it'd be good to show how silly he was.
You really gotta hand it to Aaron.
... The things I do for the songs he's downloading for me. *shakes head in amazement at own stupidity*

2008-08-30T11:29:00.002+08:00

BIGGER WAHOO, PEOPLE! MY PARENTS ARE COMING BACK FROM BALI TONIGHT! WOOOOOOO! YEAH! AND I'M GOING OUT WITH KAYLIE, JAS AND WELLY THEY ALL TOMORROW NIGHT. HUGE WAHOO! AND WE'RE HAVING DINNER AT FISH AND CO. OR SOMETHING. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! :D

Yes yes I know I'm manic depressive. Wahaha. It's a good thing, somehow.

Now I'm listening to Peter Pan classical music and it's getting me into deep slumber. Zzz..

OKAY! Before I doze off, I shall say a few words:
I need to keep on reminding myself that I have to work hard, as in REALLY work hard. As my tuition teacher told me 20 minutes ago, just passing my papers alone is not good enough (I'm sure you guys have heard this more than a 100 times already). I know it's been told to me many times before, this, but now it's made an impact on me for some reason. Maybe 'cos I was doing chem and physics and then did it hit me that I die-die had to buck up, no matter what, 'cos no one else can stop me, except for myself. What happened these few days has affected me as a person. I was a lazy, lazy person, and it's truly sad to admit it. However, I have realised the importance of my education and will strive to work hard for my goals (reward inclusive, hiok hiok). ANYWAYS, wish me luck and I will push forward - regardless of whatever comes my way.

I accidentally bought a pure Physics assessment book! (I do Combined Science) Anybody wanna buy it from me?! =/

Sorry for not going out with you or meeting you, Xinyi. :(

2008-08-29T22:01:00.003+08:00

HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY! :D

Wahoo! I can't believe this, man. Today's Teachers' Day celebration was so stylo, and plus I
1) learnt more about rice during F&N
2) learnt more hiphop moves
3) learnt how to appreciate life better (just a revelation, nothing to do with Teachers' Day)
and probably somemore.

During the concert and it was Indra (from 3E3)'s turn to sing, a lot of 3E2, 3E3 and 3E4 people started swaying their hands throughout the whole song, and when it ended we all stood up and cheered! So cool right? xD

In the 98.7FM's top 20 countdown, Burnin' Up by the Jonas was number 1! Wahoo (again)! My blog song - Shake It by Metrostation - made it to number 18. :DDDDDD

Today I felt super high, because of the class party, concert and hip hop moves. Super shiok to be enthusiastic. Wish I could be like that more often. Oh well.

-
There's no point in talking to people who don't want to listen.

2008-08-28T21:20:00.002+08:00

Thanks to everyone who wished me happy birthday yesterday! Sorry I couldn't go online and thank you all earlier. But this is the most I can do, eh? :D

I want so many songs!

Damn Tipsy
Disobey - Richard Jensen
In the ayer - Will.I.Am
Gym Class Heroes - Cookiejar
Busta Rhymes ft. Linkin Park - We Made It
and many more! Omj I feel like sleeping zzz.

And in the past few days I realised many many many many things I now feel are so trivial. I now know how to appreciate more. The best birthday present ever.

2008-08-24T03:09:00.003+08:00

To the person who's talking about my friend on your blog (you know who you are, even though I know you don't come to my blog): I can't believe my eyes. Why would you stoop to such a level? Did you have to blog about that, huh? What's your problem? If you don't truly understand anything that's going on, why make assumptions? If it's my friend you're talking about, just come straight to me. Don't put others' names in your blog like they killed somebody! I wish you would stop hurting others like that. Just because someone tells you something, it doesn't mean that it's all true and you have to believe it! You haven't even heard all sides of the story yet. Stop doing this! Why are people my age doing this! I can't stand this anymore. Why are people all misusing technology for shady things? You wanna be emo, go be emo for all I care! Just stop hurting people! You don't even know how much it hurts to be the victim when you think you are the one who's the victim! If you happen to be reading this, I want you to stop talking about it this instant! Right now!

2008-08-23T22:31:00.001+08:00

Last night I went to Marina Bay (yes, the place where people go to watch NDP) for the annual Fireworks Festival. It lasted about 20 minutes (the fireworks only) and boy was it spectacular! One of the songs was from Les Choristes (The Chorus-Singers/Choirboys), a French movie about orphaned boys from world war 2 finding hope by singing, ironically they are taught by a choirmaster who had given up on teaching singing. This movie is quite old already. Should watch it soon - my sis says it's nice. By the way, the movie is not to be confused with the real singers in a group called The Choirboys. Both are good either way, so you should look up both. ^^

I have been thinking about getting a thumbdrive or something, as I have nowhere to store my songs and photos. My phone is not very happy with me and neither am I with it, as it is too with my computer. My dad says the price has dropped already, and a 8GB one costs about $30. I used to want to get an iPod or iPhone, but it's not within my power. I have been contemplating about it, but without a computer, there's no point in getting it anyway so a thumbdrive should be the best for me - for now. Is the iPod or a thumbdrive more worth it? Can anyone tell me?

Today I went out with Natalie, Lorraine, Yap Sheng, Lionel, JJ and CY to Jurong Entertainment Centre to watch Journey to the Center of the Earth. Short movie - about 80 minutes or so. Nothing much to be said about it. Anyways after that Natalie went to watch the same thing I watched last night - fireworks! And last I heard, the rest of them went to Esplanade and I went home 'cos I was going swimming with my dad and my sister. And now I'm back at home, tired from the exhaustion. Haha not really. But. Still.

Gonna go read The Host. Cool book - you should read it too. :D

P/S. 4 more days!

2008-08-17T00:50:00.002+08:00

First of all, to commemorate this time at 12:50am on the 17th of August, I would like to wish my friend Jasmine a very very very happy 15th birthday, so

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JASMINE!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!

I hope you will be forever blessed, as you already are, and be loved always - because you deserve to be. :D

Tata! Have a nice a day!

WELCOME TO A BRAND-NEW

LIXINCONTRARY.BLOGSPOT.COM! (:

Thank you for visiting. As you can see, I have painstakingly revamped the layout and added a new lyrics column so I hope you will enjoy your stay here listening to music while at the same time read my long and boring posts. Haha.

I have been MIA for the past.. 2 months or so (wow! what a long time) and I am now not in the best of health. I have 3 or 4 lumps on the right side of my throat (I think they're called livenotes?) Dunno what it is, exactly. Additionally to that I have a fever and sore throat. Don't you just hate falling sick too? I despise being treated like a patient - it makes me feel so helpless, like I need to depend on others. I always fall sick, I think due to mental stress. Come to think of it, I normally feel lethargic what exams are nearing. This is so scary. I should stop thinking too much. *shakes head vigorously*
Oh man, the headache is still there. :(

I have decided that besides the not-so-obvious reason for my falling ill all the time, another reason why I am so weak is because I hardly exercise! In fact, I haven't been exercising for the past one month or so. Just thinking of this makes me worried. SO! My dad kindly agreed to our suggested routine of exercise together - swimming once every two days, start kickboxing sessions from the end of the month and jogging and cycling every Sunday morning. He told me that it was time for me to "build some muscles", so I said "okay lor" and came up with all these things. Don't worry, I know I will enjoy doing them. I just have to balance my social life, studies and health properly. Kind of a challenge but I know I can do it! No thanks to you.

11 more days! :D

...yes, I've been tagged by Jasmine.

"Write 20 random facts about yourself then tag the same amount of people as minutes it takes you to write the facts."

Here I go!

1. I think humans are the weirdest beings on Earth. I know deep down inside you people reading this must be thinking the same thing - you just don't want to admit it. :D Anyway, this isn't really a fact about me. -.-
2. Um, I used to have two best friends before Xinyi. I love her the most, of course. Hehe. I still remember their names though.
3. My past interests include playing the flute, taekwondo, badminton, swimming, dreaming of becoming a writer, Pikachu and collecting stickers.
4. My present interests are playing the flute, lyrical hip hop, comtemplating being anything but human, thinking about people my age and why they succumb to peer pressure, and cats. I still love Pikachu, but I prefer Espeon. Hmm..
5. I am resisting bubbletea and using the computer on weekdays.
6. I used to want to be called various names like Kimberly, Sapphi and Lyric because I wanted an English name. I like my name as it is now, thank you very much.
7. My best friend is an Aries and I am a Virgo.
8. My dog commited suicide when I was 7 because its brother died of a car accident.
9. I used to be obsessed with calling the SPCA.
10. My current phone is my second one.
11. My shoe size is between 8 and 9 now.
12. I like to observe how people behave.
13. I want to learn more about lyrical hip hop and dancing in general (Jasmine teach me? :D)
14. I SUPPORT THE ACDC CREW! Go check them out on YouTube. They're having the biggest online dance battle against Miley and Mandy on YouTube. THEY WILL OWN!
15. I'm planning to get my motorbike license when I'm 17 because I want a Yahama Fino.
16. I'm saving up for a laptop, and that Yamaha Fino.
17. I'm objective.
18. I don't like people who have stereotypical mindsets.
19. I want everyone around me to be happy.
20. Lastly, I wish I was born in the Elizabethan age.

The end. Btw I took two days to do this. Lawl.

Update

2008-06-19T19:58:00.005+08:00

BAD NEWS! MY SMS LIMIT IS GOING TO EXCEED SOON - VERY VERY SOON. SO TRY NOT TO SMS ME BECAUSE I (MOST LIKELY) WON'T REPLY UNLESS IT'S URGENT. Thanks everyone!

---
I went to see a doctor yesterday and since then it's been an endless routine of food, medicine, sleep, food, medicine, sleep. I want to actually do something. Not just laze around and hope I'll recover that fast! And can you believe I coughed myself awake at 3.45am! That brought about another round of medicine-taking. Ugh! It didn't even hit me that today was Thursday, and that school was going to begin (again) next week. I'm going to have to start getting my mentality tuned properly to school mode soon.

I think many of you know by now that my dreams are, well, freaky - by my standards. And I had one of the strangest dreams while taking my afternoon nap just now. I don't think anyone of you've watched this Chinese animation movie called 小倩, aka A Chinese Ghost Story. It's really touching and stuff, and I used to watch it when I was younger at my cousin's house, which um.. never mind. Anyway, back to my recount, I dreamt I was on the reincarnation dragon-train from the movie, as what else but a ghost. I actually had the sensation/feeling that I was flying (because the train in the movie flew, obviously) and I met ghosts who offered me ashes to eat. I asked my mom if it was a bad sign and she said no, and went back to sleep, so I'm still not convinced if I'm going crazy, or was it just the wrong time to ask her. However I wasn't the least bit terrified and I don't have any idea why, so don't ask me. And oh, there's a 36% chance I was abducted by aliens before. But seriously, the movie is very nice. So whoever wants to watch it can borrow the VCD from me. Take note - Just don't watch it by yourself the first time though. :D

What Your Face Says

At first glance, people see you as driven and ambitious.
Overall, your true self is reserved and logical.
With friends, you seem dramatic, lively, and quick to react.
In love, you seem mysterious and interesting.
In stressful situations, you seem selfish and moody.

What Do People Think Of Your Face?

What Your Soul Really Looks Like

You are quite expressive and thoughtful. You see the world in a way that others are blind to.
You are not a very grounded person. You prefer dreams to reality. For you, it's all about possibilities.
You see yourself with pretty objective eyes. How you view yourself is almost exactly how other people view you.
Your near future is all about change, but in very small steps. The end of the journey looks far, but it's much closer than you realize.
For you, love is all about caring and comfort. You couldn't fall in love with someone you didn't trust.

All danced out!

2008-06-17T19:38:00.004+08:00

Natalie recently invited me to her church dance (day) camp and it waz da BOMBZ, yo!
All participants could choose between Hip Hop or Contemporary for their dance electives, (guess which one I chose) but we had mass workouts of both genres all together. Most of the participants chose contemporary, I think. The whole course of the camp was supposed to be held over 4 days, but Nat and I could only make it to the first two because we were having the performing arts camp on the other two. Nonetheless, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves there and I didn't even care when I woke up on the second day having muscle cramps and backaches all over. We learnt basic popping moves and some hip hop ones for the mass workout (I didn't bother going for the contemporary mass workout =X) and I SWEAR I hadn't had this much fun in a loooooooooong time. The two hours of workout felt like 15 minutes!

Then we got into the real dance workouts. Our instructor/choreographer was Ryan from O School, and he told me he's taught dance at BV before. :o Anyhoo, the choreography he thought of on the spot was so smooth we had so much fun trying to execute the moves even though we either kept messing up and/or forgetting our steps. I've always liked hip hop ever since I don't know when, but now that I've taken a first stepping stone by attempting to learn it, I actually feel really connected with my "outer" self, like I've broken out of an old shell after doing my best (considering I'm not much of a dancer myself, haha) in giving my all to do the moves I envied to do so badly. Well, some of them at least.

All in all, the experience still is unforgettable. I'm so glad Lorraine and Nat talked me into going. Thanks guys! And next time there's another camp we'll go together. :D

This is the record-breaking 5th/6th day of a darn irritating cough. I just ate my medicine and I hope my body will allow me to attend the full-day band practice tomorrow.

Ciao.

Went out just now

2008-06-10T21:09:00.005+08:00

with Xinyi. HAH! See, I'm using my title correctly for once. :D

...

okay, ignore me.
Just look at the pictures.

"Roar! I'm coming to get'cha!"

*cowering in fear* "AHHH! NO, SPARE ME!!!"

"Ha! Not a chance! Upsize!"

"Don't worry, Jingjing! I'm coming to save you!"

sorry, no more shots to continue the story, so..

Yay! Friends forever! ^^

Guess who's behind the kimono?

It's...

.

.
SAMURAI DARIUS!!

Sotong and Squid. <3

Our matching watches. Mine is the green one, hers is the blue one.

Too many things happening nowadays, gotta straighten up!

Stuff

2008-06-09T19:27:00.004+08:00

If anyone of you've happened to have been to both Tiew Xinyi's blog and mine within this past 22 hours or so (or now until goodness knows when), and wondered if you there was a problem with your eyesight, don't worry - your eye is in perfect condition as it is; we really do have the same blogskin now, and we love it! And yes, the title is so not me, but because of my darling other half, I sacrificed half my sanity to use the same title as her. In case you're wondering where the ""In contrary to your statement I am not contradictory." "What?"" thing went, it's still been preserved - I'd used it in my profile; if you look carefully, it's there. So don't ask me again where it is.

I'm still waiting for Metrolyrics' response, and so far.. zilch. Oh well, good things come when you wait, ain't that right?

And guess what? After sitting down continuously for 6 hours straight, I'm still on something with four legs - great. My butt hurts. Grr. Oh, and I'm also suffering from severe migraine. Dang.

Uh, hello.

2008-06-08T21:53:00.005+08:00

I have absolutely no idea why I keep titles for my blog posts. I mean, 90% of the time my titles either
1. Don't make any practical sense whatsoever
OR
2. Are recycled/boring. (refer to above)

At first I noticed the lock thingy (only can be seen in IE) blocking the start of posts without titles before editing (so of course you don't get to see the ugliness), and wondered how to remove it. I went to the template and tried to no avail at my attempt to do so. So now, I'm stuck with writing a nonsensical title for every post. Please forgive me, or at least cover your eyes whenever you feel like complaining in my tagboard with something like, "OMG you are so lame! Can't you come up with something else?!" because actually, I can't. My life is probably the same as yours, routine and common. Nothing special about it. Except the people in my life are different from yours (duh). So just bear with me.

I tried looking in Metrolyrics.com for the "Tell Me Why" lyrics but I couldn't find it, so I found it on another site and submitted it to Metrolyrics. In 24 hours or so, I can finally get my hands on the usual scrollbar kind of lyrics to put on my blog, from where else but Metrolyrics. It'll be so much neater than the one I have now. And also forgive me for that. I can't possibly widen the width of the box, so wait for one day till I get it done. Thanks everybody.

Just watched Garfield on Channel 5. Between the sequel and this, I definitely prefer this one for its genuity and originality. I mean, the sequel is based on a book and it's just.. funny, and there's not much meaning to it. I also caught the "Making Of" of Kung Fu Panda on the same TV channel and man, do I wanna watch the movie now! Don't think anyone wants to go with me though. Oh well.

And oh, I ended up waking up late and thus missed the vaccination. My dad went for it by himself and he says he has to go back like three more times this year for some MORE vaccinations, for some reason. I think one next month, one the next and one at the end of the year. Creepy.

Gonna read Eclipse, or maybe not. Just slept for 3 hours straight in the afternoon (quite a feat for me) and I don't think I can sleep that easily tonight. Man, am I gonna get eyebags tomorrow.

Can I say yay?

2008-06-06T17:23:00.009+08:00

I've (managed to) accomplish 5 hours of studying + tidying up my disastrous table. Now it's vavavoom! (but sooner or later it'll get messy again..) Not to mention my sister got me the stuffed toy version of one of the 5 good-luck dolls/mascots, originally named The Friendlies (._O), of the Beijing Olympics 2008:

Meet Yingying. This the one my sister got me. Incoporates a Tibetan antelope.

This is Beibei. It has the gayest face. Supposed to represent a fish.

This is the one Ying got for Yuan. It's called Jingjing. Takes the form of a giant panda.

Huanhuan. The "leader" of the five. Maybe it's dubbed the leader because of the hair. Huanhuan incoporates fire.

NINI, THE CUTEST ONE! Represents the swallow. Obviously Yingxin got it for herself. LOL. Okay not funny.

Together they're Beibei, Jingjing, Huanhuan, Yingying, Nini, which means Beijing Huanying ni (Beijing welcomes you). Haha.

My dad's gonna bring me to a vaccination against Hepatitis A and B and another disease tomorrow.

Later at around 8+, Darren, Timothy, Nikolas and Darius are coming over to stay overnight. Tomorrow (Saturday), we're going to buy groceries and foodstuff for our party that night!

Xinyi and I are going to have the same blogskin! We're going to decide on one together. ^^

Talk again next time.

Nothing to type here..

2008-06-04T21:17:00.006+08:00

Happy birthday Tricia!! :D

Later my family and I are waking up at 5+ to fetch my sister from the airport. WOOOOO! Or was it 4+?

Jas and I have agreed to wake up at 5+ for the sake of Breaking Dawn on August 2! Yippee!

Oh and I bought Eclipse and The Host already. Haha.

The other day I was watching "Super Size Me" on Arts Central until after midnight (of course I wasn't allowed to, but for the love of the programme..) and it's really meaningful. You people should watch it. :D Read all about it on Wikipedia here.

Catch ya guys later!

Argh?

2008-06-02T22:10:00.006+08:00

My. Phone. Isn't. Working. (very well)
The. Internet. Isn't. Working. (very well)
The. Printer. Isn't. Working. (very well)
T_T
Why doesn't that surprise me..

The house I'm living in is not only anti-electronics; it's also anti-reception (only in the basement, haha). Well that just sucks! Big time. I swear, tomorrow I am going to call Singtel to make them come over and repair it for me (and my family)! (only the internet, of course) Got loads of homework to do. And I promise myself I am going to get started on them tomorrow, along with kicking the habit of biting my nails. (darn you, addiction) Before that, I'm going to somewhere with an AXS Station to register for NDP tickets, as I promised my dad to do.

I am currently having cravings of apple strudels (when was the last time I had one?) and porridge! Mmm..

Anyway, BV Bazaar last week didn't go well.. It was disappointing because

1) The Only-Sec-3s-are-allowed-to-set-up-a-stall rule is abolished. And to think I waited 2 years to get a chance to do that. *rolls eyes*
2) The things were too expensive and meagre

I mean, I thought I would enjoy myself there but I ended up not doing much. For once, the Haunted House didn't look so popular after all. Not insulting anybody here, but I really felt like I was wasting my time just by staying there.

From Wednesday and Friday there's East Zone Band Camp (day camp) so I'll be MIA until probably next week. Like anyone'll miss me anyway. (snorts) okay kidding, but seriously, because of my fantastic internet connection I keep getting disconnected on MSN, thus I am unable to tolerate it and so has (tried to) stop going there anymore until the darn internet gets fixed. I think they've come before, but apparently they hadn't done anything to it yet. =_=

Time for world trivia to end this post:
Fattest city (ya know what I mean) in America: Detroit. Previously was Houston in Texas.

:O

Boo!

2008-05-30T22:10:00.006+08:00

7.14am
Woken up by mom's alarm. Ignored it but couldn't sleep.
7.30am
Woken up by own alarm. Used computer while sis and mom slept on.
8am
Mom woke up, said good morning to me. I returned the greeting and asked her if she could fetch me to school, keeping my fingers crossed. She just raised her eyebrow and said (in Mandarin): "It's so late already and you still aren't ready?" so I complied and went to prepare myself, then ate breakfast.
8.50am
Mom fetched me to school. Saw BV Bazaar preparation in progress and wondering to myself if they'd been at it since early morning. Went up to see that Mrs Lee's homeroom was empty so allowed myself to sit with Wenxin and Clarissa. Along the way some people came and went, confusing each other more and more with the time of the supposed Maths remedial. Turned out that only those who failed midyears had to go, so they went at 9+. People who didn't fail Maths (which means they came early for nothing) stayed until 10+. We saw that the 3E2 people had just/already gotten their class tees.
10.30am (I think)
Since those 3E4 people who were there didn't know what to do until 12, which was the actual Physics remedial time for our class, including me, we went for 3E3's one instead of our initial sesson at 12. I don't know why, but I found that I could actually concentrate in class for once. :P During lesson time, I was guiltily messaging two people at the same time - Jasmine and Natalie. I wanted to hit myself for sms-ing so unnecessarily, so from today onwards I am going to do my best to reduce the target to 400 sms-es per month - maximum. Please help me go through this challenge, people!
12pm
Met Lorraine at foyer and then we went to meet Jas at Bedok together, after which we went to Bugis to have our lunch and also to shop for some things.
2.15pm
Lorraine and I reached school just in time for band. During band we heard the recording of "Fables and Fantasies", practiced "Papillon" and "Instant Concert".
6.45pm
Reached home, did the usual, and now here I am.

I'm going for the East Zone combined band camp (day camp) from the 4th to 6th June, which means next Wednesday to Friday. I can't wait! ^^ I also just ordered the white sleeve shirt and a post badge. Yay!

OH OH! Kinokuniya's gonna call me within 2 to 3 days to confirm my order of Eclipse special edition! It contains the actual story "Eclipse" (duh), the first chapter of "Breaking Dawn", a limited-edition, full-color print, and two exclusive "Eclipse"-inspired t-shirt transfers. Woot!

Haha, my dad just tricked my mom, and I HELPED! I shielded him from my mom's attacks! WOOOO. Okay enough of hyper. Hah. Oh, and when we were at Bugis I saw J.Co Donuts! Going to buy it this Sunday when going out with Jas. Its franchisee is BreakTalk. :O No wonder it's so stylo mylo. *.*

Things I'm planning to do during this "holiday":
Buy more books, like:
19 Minutes – Jodi Picoult
Breaking Dawn – Stephenie Meyer
Eclipse – Stephenie Meyer
Gods behaving badly – Marie Phillips
Little Women – Louisa May Alcott
Midnight Sun – Stephenie Meyer
Midsummer Night’s Dream guidebook/notes
The Host – Stephenie Meyer
The Other Boleyn Girl – Philippa Gregory
The Prince and the Pauper – Mark Twain
The Princess Bride – William Goldman
The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants - Ann Brashares
Wuthering Heights - Emily Brontë

Watch more movies, like:
Have dreams, will travel

Yes! Another blogskin I love. :D

2008-05-29T21:28:00.006+08:00

The moment I saw this blogskin, I knew I didn't have to look for another one I would have liked better. I love it to bits. :D

Today, Yuanxin and I went along with Yingxin to Changi Airport because she's leaving to China with her CCA group, Wushu. Terminal 3 is very nice, but the first time I went there, I think it was last week, I became dizzy for some reason. I think it was because I was hungry. Hmm.. Anyway, she's going to Zhengzhou with them to train with the monks of Shaolin Temple. Is that super cool, or what? And the night before, she'd been so relaxed about the trip I kept thinking she wasn't excited. If it'd been me, I'd have take an entire day to pack my stuff and flustering over the slightest things and checking and re-checking my luggage until I made sure everything was there. Okay, so back to the trip to Changi Airport. After leaving Ying with her CCA group, Yuan and I went to eat MacDonald's and I went to school for English remedial while she went home. Can't wait till Ying comes home next week.. Man, I'm missing her already. :(

I also found out during English extra lesson (which I was 30mins late for ><) that 3E4's classroom next semester would be at D1-02. Mrs Lua's gonna allow us to paint the classroom half light pink and half light blue. Yay! And I also got my class t-shirt! Natalie says that she's buying matching green-and-white FBTs to go with the shirt, because it's green, white and black, and I'm going with her to buy it soon. Went for Physics extra lesson and then ate lunch in school with Jas. For band today, we tried out a potential SYF choice piece called "Fables and Fantasies" and it sounded quite nice. We practiced "Trombone Blues" before that, and also had sectionals, in which we did "Instant Concert". Also.. I'm going to Yamaha or something soon to get myself a polishing cloth for my flute. Anyone wanna come along? I won't take long, I hope..?

A poem I would like to share:
A GOOD QUESTION/ All the Rest is Questionable
We ask the heavens.
We question the sky.
We query the books.
We ask them "Why"

We ask the stars.
We question our neighbours.
We query the Kings
We ask the labourers.

We question the concepts
We ask for the children’s'
We query the leaders.
We ask the pilgrims.

We question the politics
We ask the rational.
We query statistics
We question what's fashionable.

We ask technology.
We query the science.
We ask the saints.
We question defiance.

We ask society.
We question propriety.
We query the history.
We question the mystery.
We ask the compassionate.
We question the passionate.
We query the unfed.
We question the dead.

We query the scholars.
We question the Art.
But do we ever think
To ask our own Heart.

2008-05-24T15:09:00.002+08:00

Did a quiz from Xinyi's blog and here are the results:
http://www.quizbox.com/personality/test82.aspx
Your view on yourself:
Other people find you very interesting, but you are really hiding your true self. Your friends love you because you are a good listener. They'll probably still love you if you learn to be yourself with them.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are not looking merely for a girl/boyfriend - you are looking for your life partner. Perhaps you should be more open-minded about who you spend time with. The person you are looking for might hide their charm under their exterior.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:
Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.

Your views on education
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:
You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.

How do you view success:
Success in your career is not the most important thing in life. You are content with what you have and think that being with someone you love is more than spending all of your precious time just working.

What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.

Who is your true self:
You like privacy very much because you enjoy spending time with your own thoughts. You like to disappear when you cannot find solutions to your own problems, but you would feel better if you learned to share your thoughts with a person you trust.

And that proves part of my split personality theory. Boom.

Blood and Chocolate

2008-05-22T11:35:00.008+08:00

I've been wanting to blog about this movie since two weeks ago (or was it three?) because it reminds me of Twilight so much, plus I can't get it out of my head.

From movies.about.com:
"The story takes place in modern day Bucharest and tells the tale of nineteen year old Vivian Gandillon (Bruckner), who has spent her life on the run from the truth.... that she is a werewolf. When her affections for a visiting American artist threaten to expose her family's secret society, she must choose between her love for an outsider and betraying the secret vows of her family."

Click here for the movie trailer and here to watch the movie from YouTube, starting from part 1. It's so sad I can't watch any videos for now because the internet connection is so laggy and I keep getting disconnected. So go watch it and tell me what you think. I love this font, that's why I keep typing and typing. Haha.

Came back early from St. John's

2008-05-22T09:01:00.003+08:00

This is what I've been doing since I've come back from St. John's island a day early due to falling ill.

I'm going to study now.

Goodbye blog

2008-05-17T10:06:00.002+08:00

This is the last time I'll be blogging, or going on MSN, or using the computer. Not that I mind. I just wanted to let you guys know I won't be going online anymore until after O levels. So, this blog will be redundant until then, and you most likely won't be seeing me online anymore. See you, people.

For those who care.

2008-05-02T18:26:00.006+08:00

Hello everybody.
I want to apologise to everyone who has read the "white post" and worried for me. I want to clarify. I did not direct that at anyone, I wasn't angry at anyone or anything, don't worry. I meant it to be merely a rant on humans generally, so yeah. I know you're human too, but sometimes I'm confused if I'm one at all. Forgive me.

Environmentalchristian’s Weblog:
Distilled water is sold in stores and promoted by some health leaders as a pure natural choice for drinking water.

In reality, however, it is anything but natural, and is likely very detrimental to your health.

Distilled water is almost or completely free of dissolved minerals. It is created through a process of boiling and then condensing the steam into another container. This sounds like a great thing at first glance. Water in nature, however, is almost never in this “natural” state. Water can be thought of as ‘wanting’ some impurities chemically.

For those of you who like distilled water, DON'T DRINK IT ANYMORE! It's bad for your health in general. Geez, no wonder it's so cheap and can be found everywhere.

I think some of you might find this freaky, but yesterday when I consolidated all the thoughts, thoughts which have been drilled into me since I was younger, which I managed to squeeze out from my brain, I made an interesting find.

I have a split personality.
I think?

Oh my, I'm going crazy.
But not emo.
Good.

Attitudes for the imbecile. Just kidding.

2008-05-02T18:26:00.001+08:00

I found my diary the other day, and one of my memories were:

2008-05-01T16:31:00.006+08:00

24th December 2004
Today morning was slow and everything went in a snail's pace. When I woke up, I felt my backside was pain and my thigh had a cramp. But luckily, I was not sick. Sickness is everyone's (almost) worst nightmare, you know. Later on, my uncle, Jonathan, took my sisters and I with his family and him to swim. We swam at Serangoon Country Club. My grandmother was a member over there, you see. Yi Hou brought along his float and everything went well. The float was small and purple, and when one person lies on it, there would not be enough space for everyone. But still, everyone had a chance to go on it and so, everybody was happy. Then, Uncle Jonathan took us to McDonald's, but there were too many people there, so he took us to eat Hainanese Five Star Chicken Rice. It was very nice. Then he gave us three sisters christmas gifts. Tomorrow we can open them.

How true.

The good things in life

2008-04-29T14:07:00.002+08:00

are all here.

I wanna bash myself up for having made you read the previous blog post, which I think is really unfair to you. It's unforgivable to do so. I'm sorry.

Haha, I'm emo-ing.
Not.

"Why do you think I should woo you in scorn?"

2008-04-22T21:17:00.005+08:00

I don't understand why people do this. Some even do ~~this~~. Is it reliable to voice out true feelings like this, really? What can anyone get from it? Singaporeans like to complain. The kids, the adolescence, the grown-ups, the elderly. In this environment it's really hard to communicate to the ones you want to so much. You reach out and try and grasp their hearts, but in the end you're just tripping on your own two feet. Exactly what is the point? I shun from it. I'm disgusted by it. I'm horrified by it. It's unbelievable. We lie, you lie, everyone lies. Nobody's perfect. We break easily. Just by opening our useless mouths saying, "Stupid fat pig." can lead to hostility, an outbreak of violence and a stupid, silly, outrageous neverending cold war. Why exactly are there even humans in this world? "We" always talk peace and about a war-free world. The world is calm, it's harmless, it's actually peaceful. But what lies within it is what greatly troubles us fragile humans. On the outside, we are so happy. So happy until even I don't even know who I am anymore. Inside, we are weaklings. We cannot face the fact that we are that breakable. Just an atomic bomb has the ability to kill millions of people. MILLIONS?! Where do we stand a chance?! Why do humans take everything for granted? I have long failed to be a good human. Oh just what is "human" anyway? Oh I know, the fact that we can kill things not WORTHY of our sympathy just because they cannot talk means we are humans?! I am almost ashamed to be human. With people around which are worse than the lowliest of "beasts", I'm not surprised if the world does end soon. SO WHAT if you are rich, SO WHAT if you have the "best things in life"? It's all a vision of perfection, a big fat lie- an ILLUSION. WHERE ARE YOUR MORAL VALUES?! I hate people like that. I despise worms.. though they have done me no wrong. I'm referring to the damnest of the damned.

I CANNOT STAND IT ANYMORE. STOP USING THESE THINGS TO GET OUT OFF YOUR MISERY. WHOEVER YOU ARE WHO LOVES TO CRITICISE PEOPLE ON YOUR "PERSONAL SPACE" LIKE THAT, TALK TO THEM! FOR GOODNESS' SAKE - YOU HAVE A MOUTH! TALK. TO. THEM! I hate doing this. I cannot believe I am. It's so pathetic. Seriously. I feel like I am actually one of them who do it. Doing the same thing as them just to stop them from doing it. How intellectual of me.

I cannot think of other ways. Please. Stop. If you don't.. well..

The exams are here. I want to work hard.

Change

2008-04-09T20:55:00.003+08:00

The school is going to abolish the homeroom system after the mid-year exams.
It's been only less than 4 years that this system has been going on, and I'm really going to miss it. It's really special and I think many people will agree with me that they are already accustomed to it. In its place, every class is going to have their own classroom of their own. The sec 4s this year were the first sec 1 batch to experience it, and now they have to be the last sec 4 batch to do so. It's saddening, really. A lot of people may complain here and there about the homeroom system being tiring and all, but truthfully I think we're all used to having different classrooms for the various lessons we're having. But this is life, and there's bound to be changes. So I'm just going to do my best, familiarise myself and face myself with the new classroom once it dawns on me. Still..

----------------------

Okay, enough of all that. My new CPU is here! :D Will update soon. Hehe.

P/S. Any volunteers regarding the sale of old/unused/unwearable clothes?

I have been pondering about a plan to sell some of my hoodies/and or other clothes. Many of them can't be worn, and neither have they been worn before in the first place. Perhaps I can try my luck at the BV Bazaar as an avenue to do two things at the same - to sell my unwanted clothes and also to make money. I'd gladly be happy if anyone wants to either buy my clothes or to set up a stall with me, of course selling your own clothes too. Tag to voice out your opinion please. How about it? Any takers?

I thought it was a good time to have a new blog, after the sad plans of deleting my old one. Also, this new online baby of mine is the birthchild of my new monitor being installed. I felt it was a fantastic time to celebrate. Besides, I'm going to get a new CPU next week already! But until then, this computer will still remain as slow as before so I shouldn't get my hopes too high.

You ask what I am doing now? Well.. I am chilling at home with Xinyi! Hahaha. She's playing with my phone, I think. I declined her earlier offer of doing the friendship test from this month's "Teenage". My reason was, "I think I'll flunk it." HAHAHAHA. ... Nevermind. We're just slacking and comtemplating whether or not to go to buy something to eat. She has a new nickname for me and it's "big fat cat". Oops, correction: it's "stupid fat cat". Sorry lah, pig! >=) So I call her "goldfish"! Hehe.

The next post of mine is about my parents' love story (I hope).
So stay tuned! :D
And yes, I love Dumbo loads. <3
