Entrance UP!
Entrance UP!
Haha. I have an ENTRANCE PAGE. WhoohOOOO!
And as you can tell, my spirits are like WAY up there too.
Today was what I'd call a funky day. Grooooooovy. Absolutely groovy.
Managed to do some work so far. (i.e. all the old bio wkshts. HAHAHA. now u know why I did so badly. As some of you already know, I didn't study enzymes. :P. Tts like the major topic of the whole test. So stupid rite. To make matters worse I didn't even do the enzyme worksheet. And now doing it, I'm like, "oooh. that question looks familiar. :D")
Mass was ok, considering there was a bird flapping around. Seriously. And choir prac made me realise that adults, no matter how musically inclined, take a very long time to figure out how the song is supposed to be sung, even after singing it repeatedly. :S Go figure.
Let's see... OH YEAH. As I was walking out from choir prac, I hear this voice shouting, "MICHAEL EE". Zoommmm, Eh, JON! Haha, I totally forgot he was dropping by my church for some meeting thingie. Hehe. His clothes were funky and radical.
Sheeesh. Starting to sound really wrong. But anyways.
Watched The Little Black Book last night. My rating is in between a 3 and a 5. Depends really. But 4 would be the best choice for me. It wasn't a happy ending. And because of that, you end up feeling abit.. disheartened at the end of the show, but there have been TOO many happy endings in Hollywood films. So I'd say we needed one right about now.
Starring: Brittany Murphy, Ron Livingston, Kathy Bates, Holly Hunter, Rashida Jones
Directed by: Nick Hurran Genre: Comedy / Romance / Drama (more)
Stacy Holt (Murphy), an associate producer for a daytime talk show, is confounded by her boyfriend Derek's (Livingston) unwillingness to talk about his previous relationships. Egged on by her co-worker Barb (Hunter), Stacy sneaks a look at his Palm Pilot, scores the names and numbers of his exes, and sets up interviews with them -- all in an effort to get closer to her man. Her plan starts to unravel, however, when she becomes friends with one of the women.
Wells, won't say much, but I just found the ending really reflective. Good moral to be learnt.
Oh yehhhs, I muz credit my ouxiang! He helped me wif the blog thingie. There will be MANY technical faults along the way, and I muz apologise for it... cos'.. well.. I'm a problematic person. Wahahaha.

Friendship (Part II)
Friendship (Part II)
Looks like I will have to go against my dream of wanting to write a really long post on this topic. Guess I just don't have the mind fit to do so right now, or perhaps for a really long time.
Not until I actually discover who I am.
Thank you Ryan. You've been a great help. You need to take care too.
Jon, your support has been non-stop since I can't remember when. Guess I'm someone who just needs alot of that consistency. Sorry for draining you to the point of not even knowing what to say.
I have so many out there whom I'd love to thank. (Dun worry JH, u're in there too)
But seriously, when it comes down to the bare facts, I don't have anyone close to me. There are those who try but just don't make the cut. I wonder why. Is it me? Do I not accept them for trying? Or are my standards of a really good friend too high? That I expect a friend to know how to.
Friendship is a two-way cycle. You receive, you give. It never stops. Have you ever wondered why when you give it sometimes never comes back. Or how when you give it comes back but with a vengeance, slicing your skin and ripping your clothes apart. Or you just wonder why when you receive, you don't embrace that being because you either feel it's not enough or that it's not from the people you expect it from.
And I'm supposed to be abstaining from all these negative stuff. Cos' in truth it's bad for me? Am I addicted to it? Am I forver in the cage of moral bringing down? Am I walking a life of self-pity and stupidity?Then why can't I get out.Or am I waiting for someone to pull me out. Muddled up. I will not talk about what happened at the end of class today. If you know good for you. If you don't, don't fret. I don't see how knowing what happened can seriously help you in any way. If knowing what happened can help me, well, I have no idea how it's going to help you to help me either.I wish I could just get over with life. I wonder why I'm being put through this. I wish I could find answers. I wonder why the Lord wants me to experience this life. There must be a reason. I will thank him for it when I meet Him. One day. And hopefully if I manage to stay well, being the virgin that I am, that day will not be today or any time soon.________________________________________the song with meaning: Lueur d'Étéview the pic of the day: (done out of boredom:D) my next blog theme may be like this??? :P

Friendship (Part I)
Friendship (Part I)
I've realised something.
Friends are very important ppl to you. When you feel really down, and all hope seems gone, no matter what it's always friends who seem to shine their light down upon you.
It's difficult sometimes, especially if you can't relate to your family sometimes as you do with your friends.
I really thank my school for building such bonds of friendship... I've really gained ppl whom I can trust and who I can really turn to for help. I dun think other Singaporean youths are as blessed as me to experience this.
And you realise for once that the people you want to help you aren't always there. They're not always the ones fully open. The people you think will help you turn out to be busy or different at that time in which you are in need. As for those you want, you never do really get them to help you, right?
The people you who really help you come unexpectedly. True handmaids of the Lord really. Cos' I guess since you never expected them to help you, it truly is God's work that they suddenly brightened up.
Friendship proves strongest when you have a dispute with a friend. A misunderstanding. And when the two of you can overcome that obstacle and remain at peace and perhaps better friends than before, then I say you have a really good friend indeed.
I shall continue this another day.
Thank you YuHao. All the best WeiShun, you rock too. WG keep being bian tai man!

Why Am I Always Ill?
Why Am I Always Ill?
Being ill is not fun. And yeah, for clarification purposes, it's supposed to be ill, not sick. Sick is apparently the wrong word to use. So it's ill. :D
Hmm. At home. Not alone though. So tired.
Actually finished watching the Oscars today. After continued watching for the past 2 days. I finally finished the entire show. Bravo is all I have to say.
My favourite award would have to be for Best Orginial Song. The nominees came from The Polar Express, The Phantom of the Opera, The Motorcycle Diaries, The Chorus (Les Choristes) and Shrek 2.
The performances of the songs were fantastic, with Josh Groban & Beyonce Knowls for The Polar Express' Believe, Santana and Antonio Bandares [hope i spelt tt correctly] for The Motorcycle Diaries' Al Otro Lado Del Río, Beyonce Knowles with Andrew Llyod Webber on the piano for The Phantom of the Opera's Learn to Be Lonely and lastly The Chours' Vois Sur Ton Chemin performed by Beyonce with The American Boys Choir (I THINK. Not sure. :P).
Beyonce gave marvelous renditions of the songs she performed. And I thought that the song which should have won was Vois Sur Ton Chemin which when loosely translated to English means Look To Your Path. It is a song which evokes emotions, thoughts and to me it pumped a sense of hope and dignity inside.
Al Otro Lado Del Río won instead. It is the first time a spanish song is being nominated in the Oscars and this could also partly be the reason to why it won in this category. I am quite an avid music fan, but the song just didn't work for me.
Learn to Be Lonely, as cited by critics to be a rushed job of creativity by Andrew Lloyd Webber so that he could be nominated for an Oscar, was just an "ok" song. It did seem rather sombre and dead for an amazing song writer such as Andrew, and I think much more could be achieved. This sounded slightly more like a pop song fused with a bit of ballad.
The Polar Express' Believe was another song like Learn to Be Lonely. The duet done by Josh Groban and Beyonce was just "ok". This song seemed to be very safe, and didn't stretch as far as its title seemed to suggest. Once I heard it being performed, the first song that came to my mind was Whitney Housten and Mariah Carey's When You Believe, and mind you that song would definitely beat all the songs in this category should it have been nominated this year.
I felt disappointed that such a wonderful and beautifully written song, Look To Your Path, was beaten. However, this song has sparked an interest in me to want to watch Les Choristes, the french film in which this song came from. I have seen a few of the trailers and it already looks good. Though keeping in mind that I should not just judge a movie from its trailer. :P
____________________________________________________
Moving on, I dropped by Binni's blog and he said something about rumours being confirmed about Brother Michael reading blogs.
Well, I wouldn't be surprised if alot of people whom we don't know actually do read our blogs. Bloggers should keep in mind that these things are public stuff, and so anyone can just come across them and read stuff. So yeah, that's why I try not to keep my blog too personal.
I guess we shouldn't be afraid to voice our opinions. However if we are going to, which many of us are, then we should remember to stick by them when confronted by other people in person. That way we won't feel afraid. And I guess people who do read our blogs would then just have to accept it if we don't like this or that. Making a fuss over things, or firing us over our views seems pretty immature and ridiculous to me.
I say this because I think I came across an article the other day, and it said something about a man being fired after voicing his opinions on his boss. Ok. That may be rather direct, but the boss was pretty mean to do that. Why didn't the boss take the feed back as an opportunity to improve his/herself as a leader? Why did he/she just fire his/her employee just like that?
I guess we should all try and learn to ask ourselves these questions before making rash decisions.

Moving on. I feel so bian tai today. I sound like I'm writing essays on my views on my blog!
Sounds abit retarded. But hey, the evidence is all up there.
Ok, maybe this illness is really infecting me. Maybe I should go now. Ya' think?
:P Sheesh. I better go. Cya guys.

Ditto.
Ditto.
Yo guys. It's been ages since I last posted something. Been really busy. In fact I still am.
Sheesh. I can't help it, but the funny thing is that every night I have to eat. Urghs. It's terrible this gastric thing. Why was I burdened with this stupid gastric... ARGHS!
Anyway. Besides my physical pain due to the evil gastric.... today's dragonboat was funky!
Only cos' I got to steer. Heh. So lazy to paddle. Anyways, we lost. Michael House ruled the day. Well. At least now we know Marcian House is really not going to win. So depressing. Mebbe we can get 2nd? :D Or 3rd? Last can be for another house. -cough cough-
Over the weekend, finally got all of Lizzie's music into my mp3. Now have around 1,500 songs. Yeah. Haha. It's so retarded siaaaa. I should hav like 2,000. ARGHS. Again it's my fault cos' I never have the time to upload my music from my cupboard.
Class was okay. Ms.Ong wasn't around. -gassps- Must be she's marking the A.Math tests. Cos' I saw her at assembly... dot dot dot.
So tired, still have art. -sighs-
Oh well. The Canoeing sec1s rock. Haha. Some of them la. Very considerate ppl. Haha. Jon and me were sleeping in 985, and the sec1s wif QinRui didn't make as much noise as the last time we were in it with the sec2s. evil sec2s. They even poured water down my ear? Ok?!?!
WOW. I juz experienced like a nice feeling around my neck. I'm listening to my mp3 now. And gasps... it was for a BRITNEY SONG. Fate? Sheesh. Terrible. (I Got That) Boom Boom. Creepppyyyyy. I'm getting nice shivers for a Britney song. Haha. Actually. I dun mind. Her music's very funky sometimes. U gotta admit, every one remembers the few lines of lyrics for Oops I Did It Again. See. Success. :P
Hmmms. Oh yeah. Today we had English class. Was the UBD thingie. Sheesh sheesh. Guess who I was? -winks- Sister Josephine. Sadly, I didn't introduce myself as that. So every one is just gonna think that I'm this nun. :D I like myself as Sister. Just that my habit kept sliding off my head.
Oh well. I should be going. :P

Haven't been blogging for a long time... as in blogging about things with substance.
Guess I've been very tired. Not had much time. Like right now, I'm like a spitfire plane, typing furiously and just typing whatever I'm thinking. However honest, I don't really know.
My mind is like dead. I'm so tired, I can't study at night and in the late evening when I get home from school. I've never been this exhausted. I can't even wear my contact lenses! I go to school every day looking like a nerd. Err, yes I wear my contacts for myopia-purposes, but I also needa look less geekish and nerdy right?! Hah, yeahh, I have a vain side. -combs hair-
HAHA. Gawd, I'm really losing it. Anyways, besides tests and all the academics which I've been tied down to, I've also had training! Wonderful training.. err, Jon don't kill me?
I'm really worried though about stuff happening in Canoeing. My thoughts and feelings on Canoeing stop there. I'm not going to disclose all that stuff. It's just, really depressing.
Timothy, cheer up k? :) Please..
Had the AIDS talk thingie today in school. Really interesting and though to me it was like things you could work out on your own, hearing it from a volunteer who worked with the patients and telling us face to face every thing she knew on the topic, was really good. Although I must admit there were some ppl whom I won't mention who were really pissing me off. And even others who I thought would be interested in the topic didn't seem to be interested after all. I for one found it intriguing. Though I knew quite alot that she was saying, there were other things like myths which were confirmed, or "facts" which turned out to be myths after all. A really learning experience.
Hmm, moving on. Swimming Carnival! Yeahhhhh. It was kinda funky la. My throat's abit sore from all the shouting.
Poor Michael House... the secondary 2s are really blur. All going up by the side. Even after we told them quite a few times at the start and middle that we WOULDN'T count their laps if they got out that way! So annoying. Anyway, Marcus (sec4) was a really nice counting buddy. Hah, our counters were either worlds-apart or sometimes ;) the same. Haha. He's funky la. And yeah, one whole row of canoeists and swimmers cheering the secondary 2s on. (also commenting on how they should really tie their trunks or swimming attire properly before the whole swim, or at least hold it when coming up. It'll save us from the hideous sight. :D)
Anyway. Enough said. Saw Darzie at Skin Centre.. wonder what he was doing there.
Had a talk-thingie with Mum. And I'll keep mum about it.
-stomach pangs-
Ok. Better get going. Heh.
Oh yeah, oh wait. Not supposed to say. :X HAHA. I'm so retarded... deciding to leave this part in... wonder why... for fun? :D I'm so waste time.
Anyways. Gtgs. Byes.
