HELLO WORLD.

I'M BACK.

I KNOW THIS PLACE HAS BEEN DEAD FOR QUITE A WHILE.

SO I'M BACK.

HAHAHAHAHAHA~

Hey there everyone. This is gonna be the one and only tag here in the whole of September, since the darn exams are coming to get me. If you guys don't see me back in school after the exams, I most probably have been eaten up by those exam monsters. Today is a boring sunday as usual. My art homework is half-done, my mugging is untouched. And I keep watching TV. I can't seem to pull away from that black box. How? I pray to Buddha that I will be able to scrape through for End Of Years. I pray to God that I will be able to scrape through for End Of Years. I pray to Allah that I will be able to scrape through for End Of Years. I pray to ... [the gods aren't in any particular order] I pray to ... I hope they can hear me(hear me type). Bye everyone. Bye to the disgusting world I'm living in. Bye to the monstrous exams coming after me. Bye. (Oh god this sounds like I'm going to commit suicide. I'm not ok. As in I'm not going to jump of the building.)

P.S. Can anyone tell me how to memorise all the Chemistry stuff?

2006-07-19T16:12:00.000-07:00

EEw. i didn't send my toopid chinese literature essay to myself? cannot be one lor. i very sure i send one ok. chun hing also cannot find hers. we die together. you jump i jump ... YUCK. i den dowan jump with that ginseng sotong pot. (pot calling the kettle black -- you know it chunhing)

2006-07-19T06:11:00.000-07:00

my toe really hurts.
the moral of the story is to never go near an iron.
Fe2+ is dirty green, Fe3+ is reddish brown...
and CHEM test was seriously so conceptbased that it killed me anyway.
i didn't study much until i reached school, and spent 1hr memorising anions.
marissa and i had a great time reciting the anions when miss goh came in.
with those dreaded papers.
im neither a conceptual nor factual person.
so what am i?
OUCH for my toe again.
kill iron.
kill potassium.
kill chemistry.
kill me.

2006-04-23T01:29:00.000-07:00

Back from hong kong...
I will be following up with a recount of the 6-day trip.
So stay tuned.
Oh.
Here're a copy of the full Murphy's Laws.
Enjoy.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nothing is as easy as it looks.

Everything takes longer than you think.

Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.

If there is a possibility of several things going wrong, the one that will cause the most damage will be the one to go wrong. Corollary: If there is a worse time for something to go wrong, it will happen then.

If anything simply cannot go wrong, it will anyway.

If you perceive that there are four possible ways in which a procedure can go wrong, and circumvent these, then a fifth way, unprepared for, will promptly develop.

Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse.

If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.

Nature always sides with the hidden flaw.

Mother nature is a bitch.

It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious.

Whenever you set out to do something, something else must be done first.

Every solution breeds new problems.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok.
Shall talk about the trip next time.

2006-04-03T06:47:00.000-07:00

sorry for the previous post. its all over.

2006-03-19T02:26:00.000-08:00

I shall not dwell on about OBs. Everyone (most) have gone through it and have about the same feelings as I do.So no need to say much.

Ha today saw someone's pink flower print boxers on the bus. So FUNNY

2006-03-02T02:00:00.000-08:00

Blah heck care **** ********** lesson

The thesis statement makes the E lit students feel like puking
And the new TEE taking SEE's place isn't making our lives any better
Please ********* this is too structured for us
I'm gritting my teeth and clenching my fists
If we all write with that structure you've got there will be 30 similar essays
We are united, yet unique, do not make us into clones of one another
There is no model answer for literature, mind you, it's about your perspective
I do feel like strangling you, Miss, do not make me turn my words to actions
If you use my example of the OTHER, use it properly
You are distorting it
Pearls and onyx beads are totally different things
Don't push us too hard, cos we'll repel and fight back
I have my writing style
Yours may not be the best
In fact
It isn't

---This poem is dedicated to the 523 memebers of 636---

Oh my god.

That was a mean thing to say. Too bad, I've written it already. By the way, class tee is giving us a real big headache. Do something about it! I guess you could make it white or maroon, but not blue. I'm sorry Maychew,Quek and Satan, but there was violent objection against blue. I know you do not want a white tee, so maybe make it maroon............

Who cares.

I have so much stuff to grab for the bookstore. 15 books is a little too much. I guess i'll cut down to 6. Haiz, i feel poor. I need 2B and 6B pencils, a black pen, and a good sharpener. WOW. And I want more food.

OK... ...
Now I'm having a stomachache. Feels weird. Like there is something squirming around in your belly. YUCKS. I might have eaten worms by accidents.

2006-02-27T03:46:00.000-08:00

hahaha people. I'm seriously mad. I think I've got a concussion. And I learnt something today -- NEVER to laugh at teachers when they bite their tongues, cos you'll bite yours later if you laugh at them. Yah... I know I owe Jiaying 70 cents. haha, im a noob at maple. ask me 10 questions and i'll get 0/10. ask me a thousand questions and i'll most probably get 1/1000 or below. wow. let me list my list of unfinished and not handed in homework.
-> maths 5.2
-> print chinese lit proposal
-> print maths chapter 6 notes
-> hand in physics assignments 3 & 4 (thank you mr shone for postponing the physics test)
-> do physics S.I.A.
-> nag at sheryl short to finish lang arts essay
-> bring art tmr
-> finish art
-> complete the chem table
-> finish chem atomic structure stuff
-> and many more.

I seriously wonder what on earth is wrong with my mum. She keeps nagging at me, when i haven't exactly done anything wrong.

Never mind, im still happy that i passed math and chinese. happy me passed math and chinese. happy happy happy.

2006-02-10T20:50:00.000-08:00

Ok, so here's is Karene again.

I shall continue with my list, to the request of Quekie (i guess she's jumping for joy that her name appeared in my honourable blog)

P.s. you know why she wanted me to continue... because she is index no. 16 and i stopped at 15! whahaha

ZhiRui - The forever short and cute little girl. Don't prooke her else she'll scream at you. But its ot much big deal beacuse her scream is softer my usual volume. See, everything about her is SMALL.
Rebecca - i got too much to talk about this person. But to summarise her with 5 words, I would use dyslexic, loud, tall, bugging and MAD. Yah. That's her all right.
Zeena - a classmate for 2 years and 6.5 weeks. Nice on the whole, but just gets on my nerves during Chinese lesson. Lucky there is always Bernice to the rescue.
Jasmine - Nice and pleasant
Elaine - Accomplice of Maychew and is a little madly egoistic. Generally a great friend to have.

------- this is getting like some commentary -------

YeeLin - arty npcc person whose name gets mixed up with her partner Eileen.
Jingwei - I have not much comments about this chinese dancer
ShionYee - a slow writer and a fanatic j-popper. likes to call me sucky.
Marissa - my daddy. A wonderful person who sometimes bullies me (the rest of the time its the other way round)
Chunhing - my sotong friend who is so blur and slow. Is nice to you if you don't provoke her. Despite her size, her wushu is terrific.
Bernice Y. - I don't know her very well, but I know she is very concerned about her table which has a '旧' on it.
SuiKim - friendly Auntie Kim
ZhangYan - An avid martial arts novel reader. Quiet usually.
YongJi - a confidet speaker and humorous at times
WenJia - IT cum AV rep. An eloquent speaker but with too high a pitch.

2006-02-07T00:37:00.000-08:00

Lately I havn't been sleeping well. Its either I don't sleep at all, or I sleep at 3 and wake up at 5. and school workload is getting real heavy. Real heavy for a person with a nearly problematic spine to bear. S.I.A.s are real disgusting stuff. It takes up 3/4 of your brain and your time and your youth. It makes absolute no sense to do something which will not apply in our future lives. If you say we need to draft proposals, FINE, you win. 赢了咯. Next, homework. Probably last year's homework load was about the same, but I wasn't consistent in handing homework, so last year went past like a breeze. 2006 goes past like a typhoon -- time passes quickly and harshly and you have no time to catch up, if you havent really been prepared. Especially Math. *apologises to Mr Goh, but we really cant catch up with you in class*

I wonder why no one shows automatic concern for us when we all look so haggard. We are all dying pandas and yet no one, not a single SOUL cares. Until the day you break down. Either you start crying or you fall sick. That's when people start crowding around you and 'caring' about you. After a few days, everything returns back to normal. You are that lonely figure in a corner again. When you die, people bring beautiful white flowers to your grave. They cry. Shed a lot of tears. But, a few years down the road, when you are rotting in your coffin, who cares about you? Everything around is all dying, or already dead.

2006-01-21T05:59:00.000-08:00

i dunno what to write.

2006-01-16T04:59:00.000-08:00

Believe or not? I can still blog under 24 hour watch by Mummy. SO great...

Today is a half rotten day for me. Art (as in the subject) was maddeningly ROTTEN. Jiahui is a witness. And she owes me DARK chocolate.

Suddenly I feel like describing everyone in my class, 3/6. Ok, I shall...

Amandas - the usual mad woman you expect to find in an asylum
Hoxy - A pleasant girl
Condom - too much to say about her, but her name says it all. IRENE CONDOM HAN THE BEAVER
Karene - the forever carroty me
Christabella - try saying her name 5 times in 3 seconds. You'll end up breathless. Another pleasant girl. Always smiling.
Sheryl - Don't trust her looks. She might look sane, but in actual fact she isn't. A great accomplice in Lang Arts, especially when you need answers online.
Yina - like Sheryl, never judge a book by its cover
Bernice - my partner. Wonderful unless she eats or smses in class
MayChew - One look at her and you will know she's not sane. She's capable of making ppl laugh with her without a reasonable reason. BEWARE.
Eileen - hmm... a smiley SJAB person who likes adding a 'darling' in front of the 'senior'.
Jiaying - as usual the toot of the class. A great aspiring artist.
Cheryl - a smiley and pleasant girl
Liangzhen - small in size and volume (as in sound)
Pearlynne - our money faced treasurer. Ultra not gentle. NEVER!!! And she is very giggly and screamy. She claims that she cries easily too. Shall try making her cry.
YuChen - untrustable person... Gangs up with me against Shion, or gangs up with Shion against me. hmm.

Shall stop at 15 for the day. continue next time.

2006-01-14T06:06:00.000-08:00

I just love my name!!! (all thanks to pea -> be honoured your name appeared on my blog)

School has started long ago, and im so busy.

I'm the assistant monitress (all thanks to rebecca -> be happy ur name appeared on my blog too)

A new teacher --- Mr. Gregory Goh!!!! According to Rebecca (be happy ur name appeared on my blog again), he
@ is good-looking [not the macho kind nor the outstanding kind, it's just PLEASANT]
@ has a gorgeous smile [it makes you feel like going into a fit -- to be able to be the cause of his smile is even more ENCHANTING]
@ 'electrifies' many girls in the school [look at them oogling at him -> it just shows his charming ATTRACTION]

A gentle reminder: Neither Rebecca nor Karene is sane, so it's up to you to believe what we said.

I started mapling, which I do not know why.

I do many stuff unknowingly.
I am a big sotong. ( thanks to Chunhing -> be glad ur name appeared on my blog)

2005-12-31T02:53:00.000-08:00

2005-10-27T11:51:00.000-07:00

Today is completely topsy-turvy for me. Early in the morning, I was dragged out of bed by my mother, who thought that school would be as per normal today. So at 5:30, the pitiful me was sitting up in bed, trying badly to explain why school is at 9 instead of 7. Mothers are real hard to convince, I finally concluded. In the end, I woke up the whole family (There's only my dad, mum and me, so Dad was the only one still snoring away) and guess what? There was no bread and milk powder (for your info, I don't like UHT milk. I prefer milk from milk powder, fresher and healthier) Wow! I ended up having Maggi Mee and UHT milk for breakfast! Save me my lord. What an unhealthy combination for breakfast! Bread would have been a much better choice.

School was not any better. We were informed very late that we couldn't use M4-04 for drama practice, so we went back to class. Everyone seemed to be just slacking, saying their lines while giggling. What's so nice to giggle about? I don't understand.

Complaints:
-I got whacked on the head by Lutheng while my hairband was on my head (which hurts lah.)
-I got boxed/punched heavily on the stomach by Bao Cheng (I nearly puked out all the water I just drank)
But fine. Both of them apologised.

Now Jiamin has become a 发疯的中国人. She has emphasised for the umpteenth time that she belongs to 中国. And she 生是中国人, 死是中国鬼. That's her slogan. Everything related to her is 中国. So cheena right?

2005-10-20T05:45:00.000-07:00

I hate Claire! Why on earth did you have to get a cap that makes me look bald? And that stupid cap stinks up my whole hair with a plastic smell. I will make sure Claire will wear that cap tomorrow. At least once. Else I will not rest in peace. Never. And to Jiaying, I have a blue-black on my right shoulder. You really wish you could dislocate my shoulders hmm? Murderous!!!

I wonder why I'm suddenly so full of complaints. Don't know. You go back to Italy. Dramatic monologue. I always engage myself in that. Realise? Ok, if you are unhappy with that fact, I apologise. So nice of me.

Drama practice is getting more and more tedious. I really pity our Anakin a.k.a Pei Rong. She has a lot to work on. A lot. Far more then you and I can imagine. Bloody Harry (imitates Gary Tang's voice) must have chemistry with the princess, should have a faster reaction... [you name it and she'll do it]

Oh yes! I found a strand of white hair today! Me! White hair! Impossible. But God makes the impossible come true. Bad luck I guess. Or food. Of course I plucked it out and now it's lying in a secret compartment in my drawer.

2005-10-19T17:10:00.000-07:00

Today we received our Science marks and this marks the end of the chaos. Note the different use of "marks". Well, I'm rather pleased with what I have. Today is as normal as can be. Nothing out of sorts, except for my mum. Yes, and that is bad enough. No, bad is too ambiguous. Perhaps horrible is better. Yep.

Yesterday evening, I was forced to squat in the toilet (what an uncomfortable position!) to scrub my uniform, because I did badly for geography. Seeing me alive in school is a miracle already. Can't I just dump my clothes into the washing machine? Technological products are supposed to be used, not for ornamental use! I guess my mum is too dense to understand... Sorry for badmouthing you Mum. I am really not suited for scrubbing clothes.

Our class is really noisy I guess. I wanted to read my book peacefully in class, yet the noise level was easily 140 decibels. I couldn't even hear myself. May I list some names here to hope for improvement tomorrow? *NONONO* Ok, since there is strong disagreement from 2/3, I shall not name anyone. But I still hope you guys can lower your volume a little. If one person cuts down the volume by 100 decibels, it would benefit both your throats and my ears.

Seniors! My Green Club seniors who are crazy over anime and Final Fantasy are blaming me for linking them (exaggeration) So I decided..... not to change the links. Who cares about seniors? Not me.

2005-10-18T21:04:00.000-07:00

I am now currently in the computer lab in school. I know I am hopeless. I nearly failed both Geography and History! I wish my mum will give up on me, but she doesn't show any signs of doing so. I have not been a goot girl this whole year... and now my chances of getting into IP are slimmer. God save me! I am a seriously repentant sheep. Sorry for being disrespectful...

My mum hasn't reacted since I told her my History marks. Ominous sign. Maybe you will not be able to see me in school tomorrow, 2/3. I will be sent to an abattoir to await slaughter. I am so scared. Why am I such an unlucky little sheep? Bahhhhhhhh...

I shall go home and seek forgiveness from my mother. Everyone kind enough should pray for me that I will be alive and kicking tomorrow. If you think you are even kinder, pray that I can get into IP.

I want to sleep. We are all going to be sent back to the big comfortable auditorium again. Agian. I'm sick of being in that place everyday. I know I should not complain, since I am in an air-conditioned room with cushioned chairs. Ahh well, no complaints. I have no power to, anyway.

Three cheers for 2/3!!! We clinched champion for the Home Economics thing. Pardon my bad memory, I really cannot remember the whole title of the competition. But we really need to thank Shiru and Jacqueline. Thank you guys for making us proud. And the meat-cum-honeypeach sauce was simply delicious.

2005-10-17T20:48:00.000-07:00

Woohoo. Three cheers for topping the cohorT for Language Arts, 2/3! Well done. For those who do not know what I am talking about, ... too bad. Today, in fact, this whole week, do NOT visit Nanyang. Never. We are experiencing turmoil in school. The whole school is thrown into a flurry of activity.

I have absolutely no comments about my exam marks. However, I have no qualms about killing the next person who makes me sit in the auditorium for 4 hours. I was stuck in our beautiful audi for more then the required time listening to all the crap our teachers had to say about our results. I know we cannot produce satisfactory results, but there is no need to have us sitting in the auditorium for so long. What's more, it's so cold inside. Chill...

My mum gave me a dressing down (as expected) for getting the kind of results I got. Hey but what can I do? I'm just a lucky little girl who has not been whacked. Not yet. Just wait. History and Geography will be the major killers for this year. At least for me. Watch.

I feel that I should jump off the building. I have nothing to do on this earth. But wait. This is NOT me. The suicidal person is definitely not me. It can't be anyway. I don't take death into consideration when I am down. ... ... ... Deceiving...

Got to go. See how I die tomorrow. Wait. Wait patiently.

2005-10-15T20:23:00.000-07:00

Today was a real horrible day. Those who are strongly against shopping will agree with me. My legs were totally numb when I returned to Singapore. Provided I had to take the MRT home standing. My auntie dragged my whole family to Johor (ok I exaggerated. My mum was a willing victim) She, for your information, is an avid shopper, and can go on shopping for one full day without feeling tired. Hong Kong suits her to a T.

I thought everything started off rather well. We went to City Square to shop. I am one who hates shopping so I was lazing around, playing with the weirdly out of shape bear keychains. Amazingly I bought a die, yellow and soft. It's rather big (Greenies can use it for their snake-and-ladder game) That kept me occupied for the rest of the day. We tried to make our escape from the building by going to Holiday Plaza. That was a fatal mistake.

My auntie told us to gather at Macdonald's at 2:30pm. We all were there punctually, only to find out that my auntie was still shopping. My legs were already aching like mad, so I sat down. That seat lasted me for half an hour. I nearly dozed off. Wow! My auntie was still not done. We only left the plaza at 4:00pm.

That was the end of our little adventure. Or better, expedition. The only satisfactory part was to get from the Woodlands Customs to Kranji MRT station. We actually waited for 30 minutes and still could not see the bus we wanted to take. Pissed, my dad told us to take the 8th bus 170 (7 bus 170 had passed) Then the bus we had formerly wanted to take appeared. Wonderful!

It certainly was a tiring outing. Learnt a lesson. The lesson is that never go shopping with my auntie unless you love shopping and have a good stamina.

2005-10-14T19:49:00.000-07:00

Well people... I have a new blog... finally managed to get one. A proper one. Cool isn't it? I apologise for the url, because I really couldn't think of a better one. (sorry to Faustina and Chun Hing for using a similar url)

Today is no special day. Actually my days are never special, except that i will be going to Johor tomorrow, so most likely you cant find me, unless you wake up early at 7 and sms me. The only thing that happened to me was getting stranded on an island called Xueying's house. I must really thank Irene and Xueying for letting me have such a good time. It was much fun...

The fun part was to witness Xueying do a backward roll and roll of the bed. We all ended up rolling on the floor, laughing too much. She attempted to do a roll, but obviously, her legs carried her the wrong way and she fell to the floor with a thud. I should have taped that scene down. Such a pity, isn't it? You can see it in future (Sai get the pun?) if Xueying does it again. Force her to do it.

I would like to lodge a complaint. 'My Fair Lady' was really much of a bore, although it was entertaining. Time badly spent, really... I should have watched something else... and to Jasper, the two mad people I was referring to were Xueying and Irene. Unbelievably mad women who kept on typing crap in my MSN chat. Ok i shall not deny the fact that I myself am a mad person.

Any more happenings? Yeah I was stuck in the toilet scrubbing my school shoes. Just because I was running in the rain doesn't give you a good reason to make me scrub my shoes so hard till they look like new ones, Mum.

I spent my whole day doing crap. During drama practice, I was thinking of Chewbacca's costume. (Claire you better thank me, else i'll trample your Nut) Such a difficult one... At Xueying's house, I was slacking away. Not any better. At home, now, I'm screaming at myself. Worse. Tonight i'm going to get a nightmare.
