profile Walking by faith is something easy to say, but hard to do especially when things don't go as planned. But we try all the same, and I'm no exception. This blog is in some ways cathartic, in others a means for me to pen my thoughts and struggles as I walk this life and learn to trust God more with each passing day. tag archives May 2004 June 2004 July 2004 August 2004 September 2004 October 2004 November 2004 December 2004 January 2005 February 2005 March 2005 April 2005 May 2005 June 2005 July 2005 August 2005 September 2005 October 2005 November 2005 December 2005 January 2006 February 2006 March 2006 April 2006 May 2006 June 2006 July 2006 August 2006 September 2006 October 2006 November 2006 December 2006 January 2007 February 2007 March 2007 April 2007 May 2007 June 2007 July 2007 August 2007 September 2007 October 2007 November 2007 December 2007 January 2008 February 2008 March 2008 April 2008 May 2008 June 2008 July 2008 August 2008 October 2008 November 2008 December 2008 January 2009 February 2009 March 2009 April 2009 May 2009 June 2009 July 2009 August 2009 October 2009 November 2009 December 2009 friends and credits skin by: Jane |

Today was about the happiest day of my... the past three months. 'Cos the exams were over (partly la), and there's nth to do except relax!!! If you're currently having your exams, I apologise. With Rouyin, Enci, Angela, Joanna and Cuijing, it is little wonder that my pants almost ripped apart due to too much laughing. Okay okay I'll cut the chase. PICTURES, PLEASE!!!! (taken at Sakae Sushi -- Heeren) 
How could you do that, Angela la?? Naughty naughty ah, make auntie and your friends clean table ah... tsk tsk tsk... 
Aiyo!! Still don't want to admit your mistake, do you? Stick out long long tongue somemore ah... trying to scare us by looking like Sadako aren't you??! *narrow eyes* 
It is that delicious. We ordered almost everything on the menu (typical kiasu Singaporeans, I know) since it was a buffet. But --- we finished them all!! Though halfway we did think of ways to smuggle/hide food if we could not finish them. (xtra charge for unfinished food) 1. Smear rice under table 2.Throw sashimi to the onther table, then pretend nothing happened. 3. Smear sushi under plates. 4. Take out a plastic bag from home and put everything inside. *raise eyebrows* But being the obedient girls that we are it is common knowledge that these 4 wonderful methods were just all talk and no action. =D 
This is Chawanmushi... whatever they call it. Made up of eggs and so smooth it is almost like a baby's butt. We ate 13 of 'em. I am so afraid I might dream of eggs tonight, and tomorrow I may just get eggs for my subjects. ChOY ah. 
We then proceeded to set up an email account that the five of us + CuiJing + Joanne would have access to and continue contacting each other after sec. school. 
The end product... R-A-P-A-C-H-E! Rouyin JoAnne LiPing (Joanna) Angela CuiJing XiaoHui Enci *smile* Clever eh? 
RAPACHE!!! We were so full our stomachs were the size of footballs. Kidding. 
At the MRT: This is kinda cliched but hell it looks good!! Written in the middle is our pact!! If you are curious you can click on the pix for a bigger view. End of entry!!! Man I almost fainted doing this. For hours. Cheers to today!!! ;);););) *Boo to tomorow* Sunday, September 26, 2004 @ 6:33 PM
Blabberings I am just so friggin' bored. So if you're in the same boat, continue scrolling. Now let's talk about --- the yellow ribbon project. I think it's amazing that the organizers thought of this to give ex-convicts a second chance at life. I strongly believe that these people, once turned into a new leaf, are no different from any of us. So they should be given a chance! I am beginning to sound as if I am writing a Combined Humanities essay. Anyway, if I were a boss of a company and an ex-convict comes for an interview, I wouldn't greet him any differently as I greet the other interviewees. If he is capable, he should jolly well be given the chance. But... I don't deny that that teeny weeny bit of apprehension would be present. Ah, next subject. I'm kinda a fan of the Oprah show; if you haven't heard of it it's a talkshow that's been going on for almost two decades. The host, Oprah Winfrey, is one helluva host. In fact she made it to the Times' Top 100 most influential people in the world list. Once she had Mike Myers on her show (Austin Powers, yea babyyy), and he told her he only sleeps three hours every day because he just has so many many MaNy things in his mind. You can just imagine the gasps from the audience. You see I'm so bored that I'm even mentioning this. Like what's the moral of saying this?? You must be thinking. You see, I'm just so friggin' bored. How bored? you wonder. If the boredom was a ball of plastercine, it can stretch over the Mississppi River, over the Andes Mountains, over the Amazon Basin and over the horsts of Europe. A horst is a block mountain. Betcha didn't know that. Man, the expression on my face is literally like this: -_- Anyway wish me luck for my last preliminary exam tomorow. (FINALLY!!)

 This is what intense shopping does to girls. Everything becomes a-okay!!! Ok ok lame lame i know. @ 1:42 PM
cow I tried changing the format of my blog for the past two hours, but somehow I ended up in square one. Oh, well. * * * Went strolling along the long streets of Orchard with Rouyin and Angela yesterday; it was great 'cos we bought loads of stuff!! None of them were for ourselves though. *hint hint* Anyhow, to convince my poor battered self that I have every right to relax until next tuesday when I get my prelim results back, I always look at this picture. In my mind, of course. Do I want to end up like a big fat cow devoid of enjoyment, munching on every available tidbit in the world while mugging on my study table? Do I want to have pimples popping out every millisecond because the word STRESS is piercing its ugly horns into my arse?? HELL, NOOOO. It works, you know. Everytime the worry starts creeping up to my head I push in this image, and the worry disintegrates and I will start my slacking regime in seconds. It consists of the following: 1. Watching TV 2. The computer 3. Staring at the ceiling 4. Staring outside 5. Opening the fridge 5. Swirling around in my swirl chair 6. ZzzZzzz 7. TV. Oh, it is utter bliss. But somehow I feel that life is w/o direction at this point of time. I want my results, but can't have 'em yet; there's not much to do besides mugging and relaxing... Sigh. I'm dreading but anticipating Tuesday. Oh what the heck. Thursday, September 23, 2004 @ 6:29 PM
Childish thoughts Slacking never felt sooooo good!!!!!!!!
Today I sat on the couch and stared at the teevee. Just stared. Then I switched it off, and stared out the window. It felt goooood!!!!! But... suddenly i felt weird not mugging like crazy. Actually hor, I do still have a paper. Geography MCQ. I really shouldn't be doing this. Really. AH wHAt thE tOoT nEVeR MInD. I've decided to slack it off all the way until next week then I'll head back to the darned books. So tmr I'm going OUT!! Yay!! Out of the house!! Yay!! Woohoo!! As you can see I've been severely deprived these past 2 months. * * * Yesterday I flipped through diaries I had during my primary school days. It was HILARIOUS. You may not think so 'cos you're not me, but I'm gonna say why anyway. 15th Jan 99, Friday Half fine half rain Dear Diary, Today during the flag lowering, when the prefect said, "Sede yahh!! Our national anthem, ready, begin." The music did not came. Then Mr Yusof said we have to sing without the music. It sounds very not nice. Calligraphy class tomorrow!! I can't wait!! 11th Feb 99, Friday Sunny but rain a bit Dear Diary, Today during assembly I was sitting down with Yan Nian and YinSing. Then we saw an act by act three. It was nice but a bit unmeaningful. Then I thought about New Year. Abel laughed at me and Teacher called on him. Or bee quack. When I went home, we went to NTUC to buy oranges. I saw Swee Swee. He was also buying oranges. He is a little childish. Okay that's all I am gonna reveal. As I read these I kept thinking that I have changed so much!! I was so childish. Still call other people childish some more. Aiyoyo... I forgot who Swee Swee was, anyway. I still remembered Abel, though!! He was this really funny classmate who sat beside me in class. He reminded me of... a duck. 'Cos 11 year-old boys don't have broken voices, so they talk at abnormally high frequencies. His was extra-ordinary. ;) Ya so I miss those happy carefree days a lot!! Where I would skip home from the school bus and play at the playgroung and do all sorts of stupid stuff. At 11 I was pretty much still a chiilllddisssh girl. Not that I'm not one now. Heh. There's a child in everyone of us. Unleash the child in you!! Go play with the swing at the playground near your house!! You know you want to... Saturday, September 18, 2004 @ 4:47 PM
I'm bored. I have a philosophy, that is: Never stress yourself too much during the exams or you'll forget everything. Okay okay I'm just not the sort who likes to cram too much la. ;) Anyhow I'm just gonna rattle on and on and on now. Just now whilst mugging for geography and looking at weird diagrams of how arches, stacks and stumps are formed, I thought I'm 16 already? Like time flies!!! I'm on the crossroads of my life, but now I don't even know where or what I want. Okay I sort of know. I'd love to work in the.. journalism department? Sth like that. So I'd go to the.. Arts stream? Or maybe I wanna be a musician. Or a teacher. Or.. a belly dancer. Kidding. Oh my mind hurts thinking about these. What do I want? Where will I end up? Huh? iuyoigfamvkjhtwiltgxbilglkgls If my mum'll read this she'd say Girl ah study hard first don't think about all these... want popiah? Okay out of point. You know what I mean. But... a girl gotta have dreams ya? Dreams... I guess we're just made of dreams... nothing else matters as long as we believe... -Diana Degarmo (remember?) Hell this is corny. But kinda true, in a way. So I'll keep on dreaming!! Of myself maybe getting 6 points for the Os (dream on), of myself being an Olympic gold medal gymnast (dream on more), and of myself being a belly dancer. (possible, possible) Cheerios to dreams! Eh maybe I really can fufill them leh. @ 8:00 AM
Exams, exams... A week just flew past since my last entry, and it's like PHEW!! The exams went by like a whirl. Still have some more papers though. Now I'll just have to sit back and pray that my previous papers don't go haywire, the teachers are in a good mood and everyone sCoReS!!
Mwaha. ha. That would be quite impossible, in fact. Firstly the Combined Humanities paper was scary and dangerous. I still remembered the Mid-years when everyone thought we did pretty okay, but when the papers came back what I saw was a bunch of eggs falling from the sky. This time, I dare not think I'll do pretty well or whatever. Just a decent B will do. That also, seems quite high an aim. Sigh.... Then the A math paper was surprising. Not a good word there. But.. I thought the Chem one was okay. ;) The Physics practical was friggin' nerve-wrecking. In the second experiment it wasn't until halfway when I realised I connected the darned experiment wrongly and my readings plus my graph was wrong. I tell you, I almost fainted on the spot. It didn't help that I couldn't find the wire that I was supposed to connect the crocodile clip to. Then I looked very closely and bingo!! I saw this teeny wire camouflaged on the stupid ruler. Ya la ya la.. people don't call me ah dai for no reason. Anyhow, with lightning speed I connected the whole thing all over again, cancelled all my readings, rubbed my graph away and redid the whole thing. Funny I completed it in time. ??! I think I looked like Frankenstein with my face contorted in worry and fright. But then later I realised that due to my irritating carelessness I rounded off my answer wrongly. Oh well. Also, I always get shocked when the teacher suddenly says mockingly, "You have 15 minutes left." Then my heart will skip a beat and adrenaline start flowing. My hands will tremble... My brain starts to throb... Gosh I hate that feeling. I can't tell you how much I want these exams to be over. It's a desperate longing... =/ Will update more on my exam stupidness my next entry. Wish me luck! And good luck to y'all too.. =D Sunday, September 12, 2004 @ 4:11 PM
some weird thoughts Today started off pretty darned funny. I was really bored after studying for almost a million hours, so I started a conversation with my sis. "What are you doing?" "Playing uno. I play so long still haven't finished. " "You play uno... alone?" "Ya." She looks up with this what's-wrong-with-playing-uno-alone-i-like-cannot-meh look. Okay fine. Then I stetched my body, raising my arms in the process. I was wearing a sleeveless shirt. So you know what to expect. Obviously sis would have a glimpse of hair. Armpits la. "OH MY GAWD!!! YOU HAVE ARMPIT HAIR!!! EEE!! CHINA GIRL LA YOU CHINA GIRL!!" I really wonder what having armpit hair has to do with being someone from China. Is it... that they have more hair? Or is it... they grow hair at an enormous rate? Hmm.... Hmm... So i asked her. "Why the heck you say that??!!" "Dunno. They got a lot what." *shrug shoulders* If you watch the Amanda show on Nickelodeon, you'll be familiar with this: WhAtevvEER. Saturday, September 11, 2004 @ 1:31 PM
laxing Overload
WARNING WARNING WARNING This irritating sign keeps flashing in my head. I think it means I should take a break. So that's why I blogging now. =D How have you people been? Good, I hope!! ;) These past few weeks were crammed with 8 subjects, I almost died. :x But I've counted; there are only 68 days left to liberation, so I shall stand tall and continue marching on. Anyhow last Thursday was JOANNE'S BIRTHDAY!! The day before her birthday Angela and myself baked a fruit cake and made a VCD filled with memorable clips. The baking part was, um, let's not mention it, but the cake turned out fine. Ya, just fine. *evil laughter* And the VCD!!! I think she must have watched it gazillion times. I think her hard drive was damaged 'cos of over-exhaustion. I'm serious. And guess where we celebrated her birthday?!! You'll never guess it... It's where everything began.... Commonwealth lor. Waha. But it was still great. Only the three of us going mad in the quiet canteen. Joanne also said her parents thought the cake was great. MWAHAHA. HA. Happy things aside, I'm utterly disgusted at the terrorist acts committed in Russia and Jarkarta. Curse those terrorists. They won't even let go of children. Sigh... What's wrong with this world?? * * * Have you heard of this local band Electriko? (anyhow spell one) I was pretty amazed when I heard the deejay saying that it was a local band. Their single sounds great!! Can't remember the title. Plus this other urban and co. or sth like that. I seriously think they should quit singing in Singapore and go on to the US. 'Cos our teeny weeny island can only bring peanuts to their careers. I have 10 more minutes... going to be kaypoh and read other blogs now. @ 1:09 PM
 stolen from lala's blog. The cake looks good eh? Saturday, September 04, 2004 @ 5:29 PM
