...past conversations re-playing continuously in my head, like a broken video player
ORIENTATION 2 WAS FUN. with absolutely NO thanks to scip or ogls or clan masters. BUT LOTS OF THANKS TO SONIA, WANSHI, KIMBERLY, SADIA, RACHNA, PEIYI, JOANNE, DENISE, SERENE, JULIA, CLAUDIA, COCO, RIMIKO, XIAOWEI, JOELLA, IZYAN... and all the rest of the TA3 girls who just made orientation2 rock((: if anyone bothered to read the last post and the post before that you'd know i wasnt very happy about going for orientation2 cause i thought it was gonna suck since it was organised by scip AND because i was afraid i'd get thrown into a sucky OG.
one of the above came true. but because of the other one, the sucky-ness got cancelled off! and from my first paragraph im betting you can totally tell which one it is. i could go into detail of what happened for all three days... but that would take a loooooong post and a lot of time. so i'll just give you the highlights of my day instead((:
well lets see... my energy level was . this *points at that spot over to the left* high in its exact measurements. so all the cheers that the clan masters were cheering just kinda hit this wall in front of me and dissolved. the other ta3s with me couldnt be bothered either. (wanshi, sonia, rachna, weixin) so basically that sucked. but okay i said i'd write about HIGHLIGHTS and not the rest of the orientation which was sucky. anyway. the highlight, if that, of the morning was the screening of Jumanji... i was freezing my ass off in the audi and creating odd noises and comments with claudia at the back bout the movie... i've refused to watch that movie for years because i was seriously scared of it... especially the part with the giant spiders. but this time i was watching it was claudia and i realised it wasnt all that scary after all... except the part with bugs. zomg that gigantic mosquito thingy was uber scary. the spider hmmm not that bad anymore...
ahh yes. the reason i was sitting at the back with claudia and not sonia was because that silly girl WENT OFF WITH SOMEONE AND DITCHED ME. ))): the night before she made me promise not to ditch her for anyone and there she went ditching me for someeeonnneeeeee who? i shall not say cause she might kill me... x) yes anyway... she rejoined me after my lunch... when i met up with her and DRAGGED her to go for og bonding with me... where i retardedly couldnt decide what to introduce myself as... and thus the sentence was left hanging in the air... 'Hi, my name is...' oh yes i actually did say that. and then joella happily filled it in with 'Sammi' for me... hahaha and so i finished my sentence with '... Sammi. hahaha i couldnt decide whether to say Sammi or Samantha.' heh.
I LOVE MASS DANCE. we learnt s club and speedy.. and after like 3 years im telling i have perfected it. wahahahaha. dancing and going high with sonia, wanshi, denise, sadia and joanne is so so so so so so so fun. i was so high i was flitting around and doing odd dance moves while waiting for the music to start. tehehe ((:
the rest of the day sucked. cause after that was college trivia where i completely refused to run from here to wherever else we were supposed to go. that is even if the ogls even knew where to go. yeaahhhh riiiiight. an example of a question you never wanna hear your ogl ask, "What is the TRC?" oh yeah. im not kidding. one of them actually asked that. after that do you really think i intended on following the route they wanted me to follow? think again. and thus me, sonia and wanshi reached the music studio faster and waited for them to realise that the recital room was not the music studio. pure geniuses i tell you.
but like i said. the best part of the day was MASS DANCE. everything else can be forgotten... unless that part of the day was spent with my darling ta3s then of course it wasnt terrible. duh. xD anyway on to day 2 which was just plain FUN.
sonia made my entire morning by giving me 3 chocolates and a very cute note.. the purpose of which was really really sweet! she said and i quote, "I know this seems like a belated vday gift but rest assured that it's not! It was intended to come today, one day, I mean, week after friendship day, so that u feel appreciated on more than one day!" isnt she just so sweet! ((: and then that day we had decided that it was terrible to participate in orientation so me, sonia and wanshi all decided to go for photog duty ((: in which we spend time in the photog room (zomg they fixed the aircon! ^^) with rachna and weixin and went to parkway and isetan where we were joined by peiyi, denise and serene ...
then when we came back, the my fabulous afternoon started with MASS DANCE, ended with MASS DANCE and oh lemme see. WAS MASS DANCE. if you havent guessed it yet, i shall now declare it for you. I SPENT 4 HOURS MASS DANCING in the hall. first with slithas and then panthera. and in that wonderful time, sonia, wanshi, denise and i almost perfected The Sweet Escape which is like totally fun to dance! esp the chorus + the snapping part... i kept spinning around i was surprised i wasnt completely dizzy by the end of the day... having sonia as my partner was FANTASTIC. everytime we couldnt do something we'd just burst into giggles!
and ta-dah that day was just wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~ if orientation were like that everyday i'd go. like totally!
sonia and i went on our ultimate high during mass games where we went on photog duty and laughed at other people doing the incredibly stupid mass games. and and and the best thing of all was that we caught people on CAMERA doing those incredibly stupid games. WAHAHA. and and and the best part of the day was STALKING. yesyes *mischevious look in eyes* the best part about being in photog is that you can stalk other people and they'll just disregard you cause you're a photographer! *evil laughter* and then the other fun part is looking back later at the wonderful photos you took... and squealing your head off when you see cute guys in the picture... lol and also laughing and giggling as you hear the pitch of your voice go higher and higher when you see the guy in the photo. ZOMG. that was just super fun. and the BEST thing is that few people know where the photog room is and since it's so ulu... no one heard our squeals. heh. ((:
lunch was with sonia, wanshi, sadia, serene and peiyi... we went to KFC and had a long fun lunch which ended around 2? hahaha then we went back to watch the acts... got back late so we only managed to catch slithas and erypion's ... it was erm. okay la. very lame but erm yeah. ANYWAY. panthera's winning streak finally stopped... zephon won... i heard from peiyi that it was only cause of the 6000 points mr tong gave to zephon then they won us... ohwells. grats.
THEN sadia, wanshi, sonia and i went back to the photog room and we taught sadia how to dance Sweet Escape since she missed the mass dance session the day before.. joanne joined us later and we all practiced while attempting to stay out of the rain... hahaha it was so amusing when sonia wished for the rain to stop and the rain suddenly died down.. well we danced to s club too before we set off to suntec for dinner and mass dance.
the cost of food at suntec is extremely terrible! i felt so cheated... 4.80 for a plate of chicken rice. i am not joking. )): then sonia and i shared this cool concoction of a fruit juice i'd never tasted before... green apple + starfruit. when the juice first goes into your mouth, you can clearly taste the green apple then as its going down your throat, you begin to taste the starfuit! the downside to trying this at suntec is that the drink cost us 3.20... can you say OUCH? yeah. then then then it was MASS DANCE SESSION. wheeeeee it was so much more fun this time around. because of the company i was with. and we had this crazy session running around the fountain... and enjoying the spray of water... super cooling (: i think i ran about 4 times? hahaha saw familiar faces as i ran and slapped hands with random people.
the mass dance itself was SUPREMELY FUN but sadly we only danced to 3 songs over and over and over again... not that it wasnt fun or anything but i just wished we could have danced RETARDED or DHOOM too... hahaha but still THANKYOU SONIA for being such a wonderful partner ((:
well then after that we went with my og and had a drink before we went off to go home... and we left kimberly with her 3 dates :P wanshi caught the rubik's cube craze like finally!! so she wanted to pop by toys r us to pick one up... sonia, joanne and i were having fun around the soft toys section while wanshi was paying up... we also had this three way styrofoam sword fight which i think freaked out some on-lookers. whoopsie? heh
by the time i got home i was dead on my feet. speaking of my feet, they felt totally bruised. i bathed... went to the couch and showed my sister the pictures i took that day and then went into total zombie mode while waiting for my hair to dry... when i couldnt wait anymore, i just plonked myself on my bed and fell asleep. ((:
okay one short paragraph on what happened yesterday before i go bathe and read my new book... i went to raffles place with my mum and sister and BOUGHT NEW SHOES. they are UBER PRETTY. new balance lightweight training shoes. i swear they practically dont weigh anything. right anyway. i got a new hair cut and my head now looks like some odd-shaped ball. but no laughing! cause i actually think i look kinda sort of cute. heh ((: andandand last but not least my sister bought me Sophie Kinsella's new book Remember Me? !!!!! AHHHHH tytytytyty i LOVE MY DARLING SISTER.
okay gotta go now. BATHE and reading time!! arriverderci darlings! *hugs and kisses*
ADDICTED... just soooo addicted to this song. (Low~Flo Rida feat T-Pain &&& Is It You~Cassie) well technically its to 2 songs from the soundtrack of STEP UP 2 THE STREETS. like OMG its coming out soon!!!! according to imdb its supposed to be out in singapore officially on 13 March... which is ONE MONTH LATE. it was supposed to be out 14 Feb aka VALENTINE'S DAY! grrrr i havent even watched the movie and i'm already in love with it. the dance moves (from the trailer) are SUPER HOT. and that guy is damn cute. and speaking of movies xiuqing, sonia and i had an exhausting day yesterday trying to watch PS I Love You... which i did say i would blog about... so here i go....
woke up around 10.30am... i actually woke up at around 6+ thinking that i was late for school agian. i stared at the curtain for a few seconds before i remembered that it was SATURDAY. and thus. sleepy forgetful me slumped back down and fell asleep again. ((: haha woke up later at 10.30am and washed up, changed and accesscorised, grabbed by bag and threw in essentials, wore my wedges (HEELS) and went out of the house... it was only when i was in the lift that i realised that i FORGOT TO PUT ON EARRINGS. how utterly sinful. so, looking like some idiot... i went back up and took my earrings from my new earring holder (ty py)... the earrings are new too... coco just gave them to me a few days ago... haha .. right so anyway... i went off dressed oh-so-glamly in this off-shoulder dress which ended nicely at my knees.
and i was ON TIME ^^ xiu, sonia and i planned to meet at cityhall station at 12nn... just in case xiuqing couldnt find her way to marina square... lol... when i got there, they werent there yet so i called them and found out they were actually on the same train... haha... to their credit they werent excessively late... bout 5 mins? andandand when she gave me a hug, xiuqing was like 'wow you really are tall.' wahaha... then to my utter dismay, sonia was STILL taller than me. sigh. oh well.
we set off to go buy movie tickets and it turned out that i was right... GV Marina wasnt screening PS I Love You yet. )): we went to seven eleven and xiu sneak-read the newspaper to check where it WAS showing and we found out it was either bugis or cineleisure... cineleisure it was. we decided to go eat lunch first... and i mentioned kenny rogers which i'd been craving to eat since quite some time... and xiuqing started gushing how she hadnt eaten there in some time too... sonia had never been there so we walked to kenny rogers...
i ordered kenny's quarters and had mac&cheese and potato salad as sides... xiuqing had kenny's quaters too and sonia had chicken pot pie... which to the surprise of us ALL... was HUGE. the moment it arrived, xiuqing was like gampateh (or however you spell it...) and i stared at it and patted sonia on her shoulder wishing her goodluck. o.o yes it was that big. we were sitting talking on and on as we ate... the music was fantastic.. all my favourites... ((: and as expected, i couldnt finish my lunch. neither could sonia or xiuqing... hahaha...
we walked around... digesting our food and just exploring since xiuqing hadnt been there since it was renovated a few years back... we went into clothes shops and gawked at the prices. it was just... waaaaay out there. whoo. anyway. for some reason i cannot remember we ended up going to suntec city... at the convention center, xiuqing suddenly went crazy over this sign which said something about a wedding showcase thingy... but we couldnt find it... so we gave up and walked around instead. before we headed off to cineleisure, we wanted to eat ICE-CREAM! but seeing as to how we were still kinda full from lunch, the three of us shared ice-cream from Gelare! ((: i think we had low-fat hazelnut yogurt (which by the way did not taste lowfat) and jamaican chocolate... YUMMY. xD that was the first time i'd eaten icecream from gelare (yes i know im deprived)... okay so after our sinful ingestion of ice-cream, xiuqing went and got cotton candy.... yepyep then we walked all the way back to cityhall station to take the train to somerset...
i was really really surprised at the number of people there. i guess i shouldnt be, what with it being valentine's day weekend afterall... couples EVERYWHERE. and when we got there about one hour early for the show timeslot it was SOLD OUT. the next time slot was at 7pm *gulps* so xiuqing made the decision to split us up and one say at cineleisure just in case while the other two go to the other nearest cinemas to see if they have available slots... i volunteered to wait at cineleisure cause my feet were killing me... and after about 20 minutes of watch adverts on the screen, xiuqing called me and told me to get the tickets for the 7pm show... we managed to get seats about 3rd row from the front... which xiuqing was practically screaming at me to TAKE. yep but i later found out that those seats werent that bad... surprisingly...
i walked around the mall for about 15 minutes before they got back and told me to meet them outside at the coffee parlour... i practically sighed when i was given the chance to take off my shoes... haha we bought drinks and slowly drank them as we talked and talked to waste time before our show started. we were complaining about orientation2 and what kind of sucky ogs we'd be given. heh. my views about this are in the previous post so yeah. there was some weird showcase behind the cafe... and this guy was beatboxing... really cool but he couldnt sing. yep.
after slacking till about 6pm, we went over to the Heeren cause xiuqing wanted to buy a CD from HMV... sonia and i walked around randomly looking at CDs while xiuqing went searching for a CD to buy... she eventually bought Wild Hope, Mandy Moore's album i have no idea if its recent. sonia and xiuqing went to the toilet before we made our way back to cineleisure to buy our popcorn and drinks for our movie...
THE MOVIE WAS FAB. made me cry, laugh, cry, laugh, cry, laugh... hahaha i just wished it stayed more true to the book. not that the movie adaptation was bad or anything... i think the book was better... thats all. (: i think if my future boyfriend/husband EVER did those things for me i was just MELT... everytime something cute and sweet happened i swear the people near me could hear my delighted squeal... xiuqing certainly could.. lol.
well after that HEARTWARMING movie, we had to rush home cause we didnt plan on being out this late. whoopsie... sonia had to take the bus so we gave her a hug and said goodnight.. xiuqing and i took the train and talked about how we both suddenly felt emo... i blame the movie. )):
by the time i got home i swear my feet were completely brusied that i just wanted to sit somewhere and never use them ever again (or at least till the next day)... why oh why did i insist on wearing my wedges (HEELS)... dont answer that question. i know why. pfffft.
OH YES before i forget. when we were at suntec, we went to HARRIS.. i think they just opened or smth cause the floor was freaking shiny and it just looked really glaring with all that white light bouncing off the floors. but i forgot all about the glaring-ness of the place the moment i set eyes on Sophie Kinsella's new book Remember Me? ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! must own. for the first time in my life, i actually cursed that my birthday was already past. humph. now i have to get it for myself. unless of course someone forgets that my birthday has already past and decides to get it for me ((: *smiles angelically* yeah right. like that's gonna happen.
though i did DREAM it happened.. lol. cute huh. lol... sigh.. tomorrow's got school again and then *cue drums* orientation2. oh yay. please tell me you can detect my sarcasm, because that sentence is just dripping with it. homework homework homework and even worse. CHEM TEST. wahhhh *sobs* i just hope i can finish it in time. )): then when we go for orientation i suppose we can use that time to catch up on stuff and do homework. pathetic yes i know.
oh blah. i needa do math. so i gotta go now. PEOPLE WHO HAVENT WATCH PS I LOVE YOU SHOULD WATCH IT. did i mention that there are guys with cute accents in it? yes well THERE ARE along with the fact that there are CUTE guys in it. betcha checking the timing for it soon. ((: well like i said, i gotta go now, arriverderci and hugs to all my friends!
HI GUYS! i'm sorry i couldnt update last night... i was completely ambushed with homework due today! gosh dont the teachers know its supposed to be a day of celebration? and and and the worst thing was that the day ended super late. pathetic souls like us couldnt go out at all because school ended at 5.30pm! well its not like i had anyone to go out with anyway. haha. BUT STILL. valentine's day should be half-day!! pffft. well its no use being bitter about it now i guess... next year its on a saturday... hopefully the week after that wont have any tests so I CAN GO OUT! (: okay like i promised, one THANKYOU post to all my darling friends who made my rather pathetic valentines day BEYOND WORDS. and just so you all know. i havent gotten through all my candy and chocolates yet. hahah ...and this time i shall describe what was given AND i shall do it in alphabetical order! woo hoo ~ how exciting huh. yeahhhh okay then lets start.
IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER:
to the rest of my dear friends, who didnt give me anything, i know you were either too lazy or busy to give stuff this year. but i know you care ((: so HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY to all my darling friends! i hope you had a fabulous valentine's day! i know my day was fantastic (except that i was completely exhausted by the end of the day) so i hope you felt your day was wonderful too! ((:
well thats that for my thankyou part of my post. lets get down to the actual blogging! mmm well where shall i start? summary of my week i guess.. ^^
well this was the first week of OFFICIAL school. it was so hectic and tiring! but i did find out interesting things about my timetable. like how i have most of my week with peiyi anyway even though we're in different classes. classes (chinese, computing) together. lectures (econs, math) together. breaks together. 2 lunches together. and we end school together on 2 days... i still end up waiting for her even though we dont end at the same time. lol.
lessons are a huge rush ya know. im really missing all the extra time i had to do slowly learn stuff. econs is like ????... math is like ^^... chinese is like :S... GP is like :)... computing is like XD... chem is like erm... yeah. chem prac was a disaster. i did really really really stupid things which made me lose a lot of time.
the entire week was spent waiting not very patiently for valentines day!! and when it came, WHAM. celebrate celebrate and then it was over. humph. but i loved the outfit i picked out for valentine's day... my new blouse + my mum's black pants + hat i got from athens. xD i looked fantastic if i do say so myself... ((: pity i didnt have a camera otherwise i would have been a total camwhore for the day. hahahha... andandand i cant believe I ACTUALLY GOT MORE FLOWERS THAN CLAUDIA. how impossible is that! xD (though she got all her flowers from guys... thats 4 flowers. and i got all my 6 beautiful flowers mostly from girls) still I GOT 6 DARLING FLOWERS. 3 roses, 2 daises and 1 sunflower (they are in AP! ^^) my sister and i couldnt possibly bear to throw them away so we kept them in a water bottle.
ya know. i although i was all about being cool by carrying flowers around, they kinda got in the way sometimes... heh. especially when i was on my way home... my flowers kinda got strewn over the seat on the bus... heh. THEN i kinda realised that i could put them in the plastic bag i'd been carrying around all day... *having one of those bimbo moments* yeah.
oh and the funniest thing happened... cause hongyi sent me a pink rose. totally unexpected but yeah he send one to claudia too.. anyway. so ximin asked me if i was attached. and then she asked if hongyi and i are getting together.. I WAS REALLY REALLY IRKED AT THE NOTION. but i just calmly said no. then she got really excited and asked more qns like whether i was getting attached anytime soon... i didnt think so so thats what i told her... LOL why do you think i'm either attached or getting attached soon?? hahaha
I LOVE FRIDAYS. with my current timetable that is. friday is my EARLIEST DAY. i know its pathetic, what with it ending at 3pm. and i have 2 free periods and also double lunch period ((: and i have computing on fridays.. that in itself makes my day. computing rocks la! ((: the lectures not so much but the tutorials and the practicals are FUN.
andandand we finally found out that TA3S ARE PART OF ORIENTATION2. okay i shall make this declaration. (since according to xiu, we're getting thrown into random groupings with random ta3s in each og) if i dont like the people in my og. namely the ta3s... then i'll be on photog duty for all three days. I DON'T CARE. since i cant pon i shall take photos. its the best possible solution i can come up with and still be marked as NOT absent on the list. WAHAHA... initially i was hoping they'd put us according to our ta1 classes. if they were I WOULD NEVER PON. cause I LOVE 1B06 WAAAAY TOO MUCH. so there.
today after chinese (my last period) i waited one period till peiyi ended lesson so that we could go shopping at tampines mall. the trip was fruitful i guess i mean we bought what we wanted to buy... but she had to rush off early cause she was late for her GP tuition... which she had to write this really erm interesting essay about happy marriages... the essay she wrote was HILARIOUS. i read the first paragraph and started laughing like crazy.. hahaha... XD
gosh im sleeeeepy... okay last para... IM GOING OUT TOMORROW! ((: valentine's weekend. i hope the cinemas wont be fully booked. :S and xiuqing, sonia and i are going out tomorrow with the dress theme as 'classy' i think it'll be super fun. i already thought of my outfit... ((: andandand i'm wearing them with my wedges (heels to all you fashion-term clueless people) which would thus make me sonia's height... tehehehehe
when i told xiuqing that i'd be sonia's height, she then gave me this shocked face and asked, 'And then what would i be?!'... so i gave the most appropriate answer, while smiling oh so gleefully, 'Short.' WAHAHAHAHA. now i see why tall people are always commenting on the height difference and everything... ITS FUN. (((((:
we're still discussing the venue but most likely it'll be marina square... havent been there since last december i think. i shall blog tomorrow when i get back and tell you all ALLLLL about how much fun we had. xD so till then. arriverderci and *a GINORMOUS bear hug to all my friends* for valentines day!
BOREDOM ENTICES PEOPLE TO BLOG. and so here i am, back again blogging. i have this intense sense of impending doom... its the fact that from here on out, its mug mug mug till a levels are over. ohdeargod. someone save me. i need a life outside of school, seriously, i cant survive without trips to the cinema, going out to lunch with my friends, GOING OUT period. like i was telling xiuqing, school hasnt even started and im already waiting for the march hols to start. *quivers lip* GAH. okay i shant be so blue yet, there's still a the rest of sunday night to enjoy and since i am bored, i shall blog!! maybe it'll cheer others up, hopefully it'll cheer me up too. okay i said i would go out on saturday right.. well i did! wasnt very ideal, cause i didnt really go all that far... whitesands... and i didnt go out with friends i dont see everyday... SISTERbondingtime... yes well so, here's how it went.
the night before, i smsed xiuqing asking her if she was free and wanted to go out shopping for birthday presents... but she had to go visiting which caused me to be really surprised cause it was already the 3rd day of the new year... i wasnt aware people still went out visiting on the 3rd day but hey okay... so i popped over to my sister's room and asked her if she wanted to go out...
but noooooooo she had a friend coming over, so fine. i just thought i'd go by myself... the next day, when i asked my mum. she said that i couldnt go cause i was technically grounded and couldnt go out with my friends... so i said i was going for LUNCH and i was going by myself. she gave in. but in the end my sister had to come too. she was fine with it cause her friend couldn't come over anyway. oh well.
so then we were supposed to go change and go off for brunch technically cause we woke up at like 11... haha... but then... my darling sister couldnt figure our what to WEAR. i admit i had that dilemma too, but i solved it within 10minutes... i think she took like half an hour! i opened my closet and rummaged through my shirts and skirts and then finally decided on a dress... those you go to the beach in... it's light blue and gives you this feeling of carefree-ness and yes of course i look fab in it. why else would i wear it out? tehehe ((: my sister finally decided on a shirt and a pair of shorts.
i got my sleek black bag and stuffed my wallet, handphone and earphones into it and went to wear shoes... of course then i couldnt decide on which pair of shoes to wear. my mum suggested to wear the black shoes my sister used for her drama... (its like the black version of those white shoes you see primary school children wear.. ya know the one which you just put your foot in and you dont really have to adjust anything, there's just a elastic strap over the top?) yeah well at the time i thought it was a good idea... i mean i couldnt possibly wear that dress with my sports shoes now could i? *shakes head* yes well we finally set off...
its becoming something of a habit of mine to walk to whitesands instead of taking the bus... unless of course im in a rush, then walking is waaay out of the question cause i like to take my time to walk there especially if its breezy and cool with loads of white fluffy clouds to block the sun (: yesterday wasnt exactly the perfect day to walk there, but i felt like walking so there. BIG MISTAKE.
by the time i got there, my toes were kinda curled up cause my last toe on each foot was sporting a blister... OUCH much? yeah so as i hobbled all the way to KFC where my sister wanted to eat lunch i was really really happy for once in my life i see that Guardian was right beside KFC. went inside and got the cheapest box of plasters and put them on once we got a seat in KFC... thankfully there were few people there even though it was lunch time... yep... my sister got her Zinger and cheese fries while i got a box of popcorn chicken and cheese fries... well what can i say... cheese fries rocks! ((:
after lunch we went upstairs first to aries where i admired earrings and gawked at the prices... and gingerly put those nice pair of earrings back.. heh. my intention was to buy birthday presents for two people (valerie & pengho) so i thought the best place to go was minitoons... or more than words in this case... yepyep... so i went in there and to my horror they didnt have what i wanted to get for pengho... humph. i saw it in the minitoons or more than words (whatever it was) at parkway leh... WHY THIS ONE DONT HAVE. so. i called up xiuqing and asked her what to do. after about a 5 minute chat about what to get for him, we hung up and i continued in my quest to get birthday presents... in the end i ended up buying cool new brastraps, warheads, 2 pairs of earrings for myself and one person's birthday present. [i insist on not spoiling the surprise so i shant tell you who i bought it for] tehehe ((:
my sister and i couldnt resist going to popular AND the second hand bookshop too look for books... my sister ended up buying this keychain thing for her friend as a birthday present. there was this huge scary fly hanging around the box of keychains so my sister didnt dare to go back and look for nicer ones... i went over to look. it really did look scary... but after a while, it seemed to have flown off.. thank goodness! she poked around and finally decided and went to pay... the second hand bookshop still hasnt gotten any of the REST of the catherine anderson books... so i just strolled around looking about... im proud to say that we FINALLY own the 8th book of princess diaries... its surprisingly thin though.
okay so even though i've got plasters covering my blisters so they wont get worse, it was still a challenge to walk around and THUS, i refused to walk home... we took the bus! hahaha well the rest of the day was spent doing my reflections (blah) and playing audition (yay!)...
i just re-read the first few paras. and realised how bimbotic that sounded. O.o but ohwell. :D
TODAY was boring. i was and still am very bored. the better part of this morning was spent dreaming... im saying this cause i slept in as normal people do on sunday mornings... then in the early afternoon i was helping chengfeng get her o2mania working (failed so i came up with another idea)... and then later helping her get o2jam... i cant believe she managed to download the installer in 10mins. im JEALOUS! the first time (yes i still remember) i tried which was in ta1, it was supposed to take like half a day or smth... and then the second time i tried which was last year... it took 30 minutes. and yet i managed to install it back into my comp and get it working faster than she did.. odd isnt it... for the life of me, i honestly thought that i had forgotten my password... so i went to create a new account... after that when i finally managed to sign in with my new account... then i remembered what my old login name was. -.-" DUMB RIGHT! i know.
so now i have 2 accounts ign1: Draecia lvl 34 (i think) and ign2: DarlingxD lvl 1 ((:
oh well... yep and my darling peiyi, i managed to print all the things already! i know you love me :D haha i used my sister's comp to print it out... okay i know no one knows where my sister's printer is so i shall describe. its at the corner of the table, the hardest place to put stuff... i was standing there attempting to balance while struggling to put the bloody pieces of paper into the slot. believe me, it takes SKILL. and my darling sister was sitting there at her table laughing her ass off watching me put papers in the printer. i was wondering why i didnt have longer arms or was like TALLER. *pout* but in the end i did manage to print out everything ((: halfway when the printer started complaining that it was low on ink i started panicking but my dad told me to just keep at it until the printing looked terrible. (O.o) okay. ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, it managed to print out everything just fine.
im looking at my sucky timetable and wishing it said 04/08 instead of 02/08... ya think if i wished really really hard it might change? *looks hopeful*
whoops must be dreaming again. sigh. well anyway this is PROBABLY the last post im gonna do until at least valentine's day then maybe i'll do one of those thankyou posts along with what happened that day if i have any strength left... its my latest day!! gah. EXTEND THE WEEKEND! *pout* i dont wanna go back to school. *sobs* humph. arriverderci and loads of hugs and kisses to all my friends! take a deep breath guys, cause official school is starting!
we're doomed.
I AM SERIOUSLY BORED. that is a fact. i had nothing to do (im neglecting my attachment reflections. just because.) so i decided to update (: if i remember correctly, i said that i might show you how i styled my nails... well okay i'll upload the picture then (since xiu wants to see it)
seeee arent they nice ((: well if you dont think so, I DO. i think they look fabulous! its a pity i'm not going out much so i cant really show them off haha... they took me about 2 hours to do... 1hour per hand cause i wanted them to be perfect laadeedum... okay now that we've got that done... i shall talk about what happened on wednesday ((:
road run was blah. ALTHOUGH, CONGRATS TO PEI YI FOR GETTING 26th POSITION IN JC. i didnt run because honestly, i think i would have fainted on the road. and besides that wasnt the point of the day... the point was that I WENT OUT (: [omg i sound deprived] heh. hahaha well anyway sonia, weixin, rachna , xiuqing and i went out first to pizza hut at siglap center for lunch... we were the only weirdos having lunch at around 11.30am so the resturant was almost empty... lucky us huh. (: i ordered chicken ole baked pasta... weixin took the orleans delight baked rice, sonia and xiu shared hawaiians pizza and rachna had the veggie lovers i think... in addition we also ordered 2 garlic bread to share and rach also went to KFC to get cheese fries... (wow i cant believe i remembered all that o.O) conversation was mostly about road run and cute guys and stuff (x haha well then we went to parkway to shop a little cause rachna kept insisting she had nothing to wear for v-day AND that no one was getting her anything so... well she had this plan. lets just leave it as that.
when we got to parkway, xiuqing and i went to borders first to explore and look at chick lit ((: and discuss stuff and she accidentally kept bringing up 'the last time we came here'... which made me really very puzzled cause as far as i remember, that was the first time i went to parkway borders with her... then she realised she was remembering the time she went there with sonia! hahaha well then we decided to join the rest of them who were looking at clothes... xiuqing called rachna or sonia (i dunno who) and asked where they were... we actually managed to walk past them and go up the escalator before i saw them in this shop facing the escalator... erm LOL? haha so we took the escalator back down and met up with them in the shop which i had never entered before... we went into other shops too and i actually found something cute which i liked... but it didnt fit o.o i was like. YOU'RE JOKING. the reason was ridiculous... but i highly doubt you need to know the actual reason. just believe me, it was ridiculous.
then we went into Isetan... goodness i havent been in there in soooo long... by this time rachna was gone cause she had to go home... so sonia, weixin, xiuqing and i wandered around the women's section of the store and i actually saw a dress i LIKED. weixin picked out a dress which she wanted xiuqing to try on so xiu and i went into the fitting room (the same one cause we didnt want to wait for more rooms to open) we both didnt mind la so yeah. she closed her eyes while i tried on mine and then i closed my eyes and waited for her to try on hers... we looked so darned fabulous and we showed sonia and weixin... they were kinda shocked when we went back into the same fitting room hahaha... xiuqing had her camera in her bag and he absolutely had to take a picture... so... we did! haha when she gives the picture to me i'll be sure to put it up! cause we look absolutely GORGEOUS. (: its a pity mine was a new arrival and it cost 70bucks... *cringes* and even after the 20% off, its still like 56bucks. *sobs* xiuqing's dress cost like 40bucks i think... does the term 'no money' mean anything to anyone? ooh look she just gave the picture to me... hold on ah...
Yep, i need a belt la.. but i still like the material of the dress... and xiu looks ready for prom! hahaha well after that we walked around somemore and weixin bought a white skirt at Mango... walked around somemore and then we all had to go cause xiuqing and i had to be home by 4 ... heh. i thought that i'd be on time... heh. i reached home after 4 and before 4.30... got scolded by my mum... oops? we had to be ready to go by 5... my sister was even later than me hahaha anyway we still managed to reach my grandma's house on time.. ((:
reunion dinner was uneventful and i was full really really soon... i think it was cause it was cause i ate quite a lot during lunch... (come to think of it... i didnt finish my baked pasta... hmmm) anyway my sister and i were stuck washing plates.. and my sister out of nowhere went into this laughing fit which annoyed me to no end cause i just wanted to finish washing the plates and get back to enjoying myself. but no. she had to laugh and laugh and laugh and... laugh. humph.
EVENTUALLY we finished... so we went back out... she brought her tabbie and watched Supernatural on it.. everytime it came to the scary part she warned me so i closed my eyes until it was over.. i do believe i've mentioned that if i watch scary things i tend to get nightmares which haunt me for weeks on end. yeah so after some time, we went home... after bathing, i got out my nail polish and turned on my tabbie and got the scotch tape... nail polishing time! haha after i prepped my nails and stuff i played solitare while i waited for that particular coat to dry... the picture of them done is up there *points up* yepyep.. i do declare that they look gorgeous.
{added in at 1930: the dream came back. why do you do this to me? geez}
well thats all i've got for you now... oh yes will someone please please please go out with me tomorrow? ((: such a long weekend and me no go out? its a sin. oh blah i'll go bother people about that later tonight. i've gotta go now... arriverderci! *kisses and hugs to all my friends*
HELLO WONDERFUL FRIENDS(: I FELT LIKE BLOGGING. wahaha don'tcha just love my moodswings. i'm not sure this counts but oh well. it's close. okay lets see what shall i rant about today... or in other words, lets see where my mood takes me...
first lets start off with my recent personal message on msn, which for once, is not a lyric from a song or from anywhere actually. one of my dreams really did sort of come true... well technically it was a recurring dream not exactly recurring as in the EXACT same dream... but rather the same event happened. what the event was, i'd rather not say... but i know xiuqing knows what im talking about... if you're gonna ask me why i'm suddenly writing this.. well i guess i just been thinking about it since last friday when this topic came up in our conversation. haha. well like i said in my pm, it wasnt exactly as how it i ever dreamed it (in my many versions of it happening), and days following said event weren't exactly ideal... so i guess it was a dream come true...only somewhat. STILL, it did sort of come true. cool huh? (: dont worry though, it was a good kinda thing... when i was dreaming it i felt good... but then i'd wake up grumpy.. cause it didnt actually happen. there came a point in time where that particular event became a sort of alarm bell going off to tell me it was just a dream. and when it ACTUALLY happened i could have sworn i was in a dream and about to wake up. haha^^
i went running again today, mostly by myself since rachna ran off suddenly halfway and didnt keep pace with me. so. how many people saw me with my neon blue fbt shorts? they look fantastic... as in the colour, they dont look that great on me but what the heck, they are comfortable! today was the first time i ran with my phone, as in listening to music... just last night i purposely made a new playlist just for me to listen to when im running. the playlist consists of uptempo songs and also peaceful, serene songs... i only heard like maybe halfway through my 3rd song when i came back from my 4th round. ((: i was warming down and just walking in circles as i watched rachna complete her last half round. it actually feels kinda good to listen to your music and run. keeps your mind off everything else. usually i concentrate on my breathing and distract myself by looking up at the housing blocks... well anyway. after our 4 rounds and about 5 mins of rest, rachna and i went to do the rest of our exercise regime... pushups (20) and some weird thing thats supposed to train your abs but i felt more strain on my arms, i was like trembling like crazy oh and we also ran up and down the gallery stairs... the bigger ones and the smaller ones 5 each. wheee~ i feel fit! ((: at least now when PE starts i wont be like... 'OHMYGOD I CANT GO ON. IM DYING HERE. *pants heavily*' xD haha like the rest of the ta3s will be wahahahaha (: watch out people... im training now and i dont plan to stop till i can get my A for my 2.4! i hope i still can run when official school starts... oh i just looked at my timetable. if i want i can run on early morning mondays and the rest of the week i either have free periods at 10 or i actually have PE that day. hooray for me!
okay i must sound like some crazy sporty person but hey, i don't mind running all that much... and to think that in ta1 i thought debbie was crazy for running everyday... (how ironic huh!) okay anyway... the rest of today...hmmm well there was this funny quiz which xiaowei sent me last night (which i did before but i thought i'd just do it again cause i didnt remember the answers anymore) anyway.. most of the answers were surprisingly true. though i doubt some. (like i'm gonna tell you. riiight.) peiyi did it too and we both had fun laughing over each other's answers... then i made chengfeng do it and we all laughed some more... haha kelly did it before so nevermind lor. hahaha then kelly was gushing on about some quiz about stuff to find out about your love life... peiyi, chengfeng and i all did it cause we thought it'll be super fun... so anyway the results were once again hilarious... especially peiyi with her obssession with big numbers... (on a scale of one to ten those kind) lol ((:
oh yes then in the afternoon peiyi and i had the most adventurous afternoon! at 12.30, my mum came and took my bag away and i swapped it for this hot pink tote bag (later i shall tell you what was written on it... ohmygod so embarressing) inside the bag was my umbrella, my wallet and peiyi's jacket... i held my handphone in my hand just in case i got calls or smses (but like duh. its ME, why would i get any... pfffft) anyway we both wanted to go Borders... so we decided we'd go to parkway to eat lunch. when we got there, we went to Borders first... where i was immediately attracted to my lovely 3for2 CHICK LIT books. but all it did was make me realise how bloody poor i was... i couldnt even afford one 17dollar chicklit. *pout* well technically im saving up cause of a certain day coming up next week which im spending a lot of money on. ANYWAY. back to my afternoon... we finally finished exploring Borders and decided it was time for lunch. after going up like 4 floors, we finally both mutually agreed to go to LJS... when we went outside and saw it was OPENAIR & the fans were NOT on... we then ridiculously went back to Bedok to eat at Bedok Central LJS. when we were walking past the Pizza Hut there, and i was talking rather cheerfully, Peiyi suddenly turned to the left and looked through the Pizza Hut window... when i turned my head too i realised that there were guys there we knew... the only ones i recognised was keith and jonathan pang... seriously... stupid blinds... and i was squinting to even make out keith's face... there were i think 3 or 2 other people there... peiyi and i waved as we walked past and then after we moved past, i turned to her and asked WHO WAS THERE? lol... turns out she saw xinzhi first and then pengho and jon pang... she couldnt make out keith's face and i dont remember whether she knew who the last person was... if there was a last person. ohmygod i gotta get my eyes checked. *blinkblink* yep. anyway we had a delightful lunch at LJS where... i once again couldnt finish my lunch and peiyi had to eat the rest of my fries... i.. like duh... finished my drink while peiyi couldnt finish hers... haha what a pair we make. oh yes when i was eating i finally realised what was written on the tote bag... it was something promoting mammograms and something about the fight against breast cancer. i was like OHMYGOD i was carrying that around and i didnt even know what it said!! gosh...gah yepyep... we finished around 3-ish... and then we went home after that... since i did have an umbrella, was carrying only a small tote bag AND felt like walking, i walked home from pasir ris station... the breeze felt great(:
well that pretty much sums up my day... now... i have to put money in my wallet to buy flowers from the eclub... to all my friends. im so sorry if i cant get you a flower, im hopelessly broke right now so how bout i maybe buy you chocolates instead((:
oh yes CHINESE NEW YEAR is coming!! i've got this fabulous idea of how to wear my nails so watch out yall cause i know im gonna have the most beautiful nails for CNY.. maybe IF i feel like it i'll put up a picture... if. hahaha^^ i dont have new clothes, but i do have clothes which i havent worn out yet... and maybe i'll wear my Greek dress out.. i really need an excuse to wear it out. i look great in it.. i just dont have a reason to wear it. *frowns* oh well, i'll make up a reason if i dont have one sooner or later((: it cost me 36bucks man, obviously im gonna wear it! oh yes and the absolute best thing about this year's CNY is that it gives me a 4-day weekend ((: can you spell FUN? *grins*
well i think that's all for now.. maybe i'll get bored during the weekend and update again but for now... arriverderci! and *muax* to all my darlings!
PS. i'm happy happy happy... i cant believe my skirt is now one size too big... tehehe ((:
