Basically, your welcome message
right here.


Melissa: I don't like welcome messages so I'm leaving that there.

Hey friends!

Heh, I know my blog's been dead, even I haven't checked back in a month or so. Well, there's tonnes to post about so I might as well get on with it. Whatever that's below is probably not gonna be in chronological order, so just.... try and deal and decipher(:

DRAMA SYF! We missed sports day because of that, but I'm personally unaffected. Anyway, we got silver. But since it's been such a long time since all of that, I'm not gonna even try to think up of some heart-felt reflection. Let's just say I have no regrets whatsoever.

Then there was Emil and Sarah's wedding. Me being me, I won't type out all the details that are buzzing around in my head right now. But I'll really miss the both of them.

There was Laura Ngiam's sweet sixteen too! It was really awesome, and she even rented out a whole restaurant save for one table. But I'm not complaining, the food (japanese) was seriously yummy, and I got to eat extra cake and ice cream cos some people couldn't finish theirs. Plus, the company was awesome too.

Oh yes. For my NAPFA test, I'm happy yet not-so-happy to say that I've got a gold with 29 points. In case you were wondering, the B was from my 2.4km run.

My mom has been in Japan for the past week or so with her Shacah ministry things. I can already imagine how much she'll tell my sister and I about the things she's learnt, not that I'm dreading it or anything. Also, she said that she bought candy!

In case anyone was wondering, I'm still smitten by Naruto. I just try to contain my excitement and not talk about it too much to be more considerate for others' ears. Now, I'm impatiently awaiting Shippuuden episode 109 and manga chapter 447 to be out. I've been watching lots of fanflashes, some are actually pretty hilarious.

Bees have also been coming to my classroom. Every single day, at least 10 times, and I'm not exaggerating by one bit. The sad thing is, I can deal with lizards and cockroaches, but the moment I see a bee, I start screaming, "ShuLi, protect me!" and twitch various parts of my body in faint hope of somehow scaring the bee(s) away. Oh, did I mention I sit right by the window? That's where all the bees go. But the thing is, my classroom's on the 4th level. You'd think the bees wouldn't fly that high.

Can I do a little bit of minor ranting here? Skip the paragraph if you want to. Here goes. Honestly, I think people should know when to talk, and when not to. When someone confides in you, the only logical and right thing to do is to keep it to yourself and not betray your friend's trust. That's something I strongly believe in, so when I discover these minor "back-stabbing" cases, I get annoyed. Hence, this minor rant here. For those who were wondering, I'm not even involved in the case that I'm refering to. It's just an issue I feel strongly about.

By the way, CAREY'S COMING THIS AUGUST!

Anyway, I need to spend more time with my friends. Susu and I are long overdue for a hangout and sleepover at her house. I'm missing out on tomorrow's "study at starbucks" with Rach, Shu, Jud, Nic and Bunny cos of various tuitions. I feel as if I haven't spoken to any church friends in a long time, which is rather strange. Mel, in case you're reading this, I'm not too busy for you!!!

Right. So for this blog... I'm not promising anything, but I'll try to keep it alive for as long as possible. To those who have been coming here even more than me, I'm flattered, really, and appreciate it more than you think I do.

Till who knows when (:

Hey friends! Extremely long post ahead.

Yes I know my blog's been dead for the longest time ever. In fact, I hardly even visit it anymore. Well, I guess that's what you get for creating a blog simply cos you found a blogskin that you adored way too much.

Anyway, the main reason why I've not been blogging is cos my computer time has been limited to one hour per day. By my mom. So, I've been using all that precious time to squeeze in 3 Naruto episodes. Speaking of Naruto, I'm already at episode 35 of Shippuuden(: How awesome is that? Naruto is really really really amazing. Yeah.

Moving on, I've got lots of stuff to tell.

Firstly, was Rachel's early tea-party birthday celebration thingum. It was the Thursday during the March hols. After Chinese tuition, I went to Judith's house and we waited for Shu, Nic and Bins to come with all the stuff they bought to decorate her house. And I was practically forced by Jud to wear one of her dresses (which I still have yet to return). Jud also baked cupcakes with tonnes and tonnes of sugary icing on the top. And the best part was, I got to eat extra icing since people like Rach and Shu found it too sweet. Go to facebook for pictures or something. OH. And Judith's evil dog bit an entire chunk off the heel of my slipper. It looked really gross, so I threw it away. I blame the dog. Not Judith. Anyway, it was an awesome day as a whole(:

We also had Thursday and Friday during the March hols when we went to HOG church's music practice to learn from them. And they are really inspiring. Like how they work so well together as a team and their discipline as well.

Saturday was Loudfest. I helped out with the dance workshop, it was quite an interesting experience. Then, we went over to cornerstone and did more stage blocking and practice, had a rushed 10 minute make-up session and it was time to stand by already. Go see the video of the performance on facebook. Isn't facebook so useful? But yes, the conference was impactful.

Last Friday was our Spirit of the Class cheer competition. I think my class did really well. Out of the 9 sec four classes, we got 4th place which is quite good. And Shameera can rap. Like amazingly well. I think the pictures are scattered at random places from facebook to Nic's xanga to Shu's flickr.

As for Drama, SYF is next week. Thursday. That is so soon. I'm scared. We've been improving by a lot, but I still think we need to up it so much more. Oh and did I mention our SYF day is also on our school's sports day? Yeah. So we'll be missing out on sports day, which is quite sad. And what's sadder is that the sec 4s will be stepping down soon from CCA. But at least that'll mean more time to study and do work.

Speaking of work, I'm starting to feel stressed. I can't remember that last time I've felt this stressed. Well, the main cause of it right now is my chemistry test tomorrow. At the moment, chem is my weakest subject. Yes, it's worse than my chinese. So now it's nearly nine, I don't wanna sleep too late in case I fall sick which is extremely bad cos SYF is next week, the test is tomorrow, I don't understand a lot of the things, I'm waiting for my sister to get home and help me, I still have a whole chunk of math homework to do by tomorrow and what am I doing? Sitting here calmly and blogging this abnormally long post. Oh well. But I suppose there'll be other more unfortunate people out there in more alarming situations than me.

And if you were wondering, yes, I am fine. Don't tell me "It's ok" or "Don't stress" or "Are you ok", it'll just annoy me. Honestly. (:

Byebye!

Yes I admit that my blog is dead. I've really really lost interest in blogging already, but I'm posting this so I can tell everyone about the drama camp, which was totally awesome!!

I loved camp. I got to know lots of people better, especially Terri and her dance stuff and Michelle and how strong she actually is when she held my arm in a death-grip after the night-walk.

Speaking of the night walk, it turned out quite cool, though it was sad that it was called-off cos the juniors were screaming too much at 11pm. In the end, only one out of the three groups made it to the station I was at with LauraN.

For SYF, I'm proud to say that we've made a lot of progress! It's really getting much better, but I hope we won't forget it all again cos we don't have rehearsal until next week.

We also made our own play that was to be performed before this barbecue that on the last night of the camp. We chose a prop which was this freaky looking baby doll. So naturally, we made it into a freaky sort of horror play that had its funny bits too. I'm lazy to type out what we did exactly, so just ask me in person.

My group was awesome. We were named after the "Like Mother Like Daughter" SYF play. And I'm so proud of us cos we won the best group award for the play we put up(: Ok ok, just let me gloat a bit. We also got best cheer (tied with another group though) and best costume. And I got best supporting actress cos I apparently freaked everyone out since I was the creepy character in the play. I always thought I was more loveable.

Ehhh I can't type out anything else that will make a lot of sense. Although camp was really luxurious cos we ate Macs and pizza and slept in the air conditioned music room, it was somehow more tiring than other camps I've been to like Infused. I was out cold yesterday after I came home, just ask my sis who tried in vain to wake me up when I slept at the foot of the bed.

I wish Naruto loaded faster on imeem.

Bye(:


LauraN, here's that shoutout!(: Really, you are the biggest camwhore that I know of. Camp with you was really really awesome, right from the 7am breakfast at Macs to the barbecue at the end. Love you, Laura!! See you soon.

Honestly, I'm too lazy to do others. Laura, be honoured.

Hey friends.

I've realised that I haven't been blogging as frequently as I used to before! Wow maybe I am getting tired of blogging already. I don't know yet.

School has been awesome lately! Well, it always is. And Drama is getting really exciting too. I can't wait for the camp next week. Also, LauraF and I have been talking lots about Naruto when I see her during recess as Tansy tries to bear with us. I'm on episode 87 now! OH. Have I introduced Susan, Ben and Cousin Henry? And as I promised Pris, Aunt Lavander's coming soon. They're my newest friends. It's kind of like an inside joke that I shall not disclose too much of here in case I sound like more of a nutcase than I already am. Speaking of friends, I can't wait for Thursday in the March hols for Rachel's surprise thingum. She is totally in suspense already.


{EDIT!} I just read an old post of mine that went: "Naruto isn't as awesome as Inuyasha." Now, I totally and completely take that back. Naruto pwns Inuyasha.


Anyway...

Nicole, just you wait! I'm expanding Ben and Susan's family so that there'll be too many for you to kidnap and hide from me! I'm actually saying this to you here cos I know Bunny doesn't come online anyway. Love you!

Judith, I'll say this again: Pokemon is an anime. You like Pokemon. So you cannot say that anime is for chumps anymore. HAHAHA. I just realised 'anime' and 'anymore' sound alike. OHH. 'Anymore' rhymes with 'Paramore'! You know, the band that's totally awesome? And I still remember you admitted to finding them alright, just that you kept insulting them to annoy me. And I miss you! We need to catch up, please. Burn your table at the other side of the class.

Bye!

Hey friends! My life is very interesting. Let me tell you why.

Today was just like any other school day. But during recess as I was munching happily on a pack of BBQ-flavoured cassava chips, something in my mouth felt really weird. So I stopped eating and shoved a finger into my mouth and found out that the wire of my braces was kind of messed up. It really jutted out into my bottom lip and I was proudly showing it off to everyone. LauraN gave me wax, but it couldn't really help cos the wire wouldn't budge. So I went to Mrs Mohan and she agreed to let me get out of school! (: My grandma came to pick me up and we went to see the orthodontist. So now my braces have been tightened a week before they were scheduled to be. And they're yellow now! My dear friends were still having the last period when I got back home. Muahahaha.

Yeah. That's all I wanted to say. OH OH and I got my new phone already. It's a new number as well.

Bye!

Hello! Haven't posted anything for quite some time. Let me start from last week Thursday. Warning, this is a REALLY long post. Read through the whole thing and I will be super proud of you(:

Thursday was somewhat eventful cos I lost my phone. Before drama started, I went to the toilet to change. I took out my phone from my pocket and placed it on top of the toilet paper container and totally forgot it was there until drama ended at around 6. So naturally it was gone by the time I checked again. When LauraN and Angie helped to call it, it was on, meaning that someone took it. So I infer that my phone has been stolen. Oh well, and up til now I still haven't heard any news and it wasn't given to the general office. But on the upside for Thursday, I remembered that I told Jarrold I would try to watch Naruto. So I did. AND IT'S AWESOME! I LOVE NARUTO, HE'S SUCH AN IDIOT. And it's really funny too.

Friday was busy all the way. ShuLi and I have been making surverys for each other lately. We each have our own notebook for it and we write the dumbest options. Nic comes up with the funniest things too. There was math remedial after school and then I went home for math tuition and straight after that, I had to get ready for the drama outing to Claire's play "The Importance Of Being Earnest". Some of the sec4s were gonna meet at City Hall MRT, but I was late so I assumed they left already so I just made my way there by myself. But as I'm not a genius, I took exit A when I should have taken B to get to Victoria Theatre. I decided I was lost when I'd been walking for a long long time over a long long distance. And I only had my grandma's phone which I borrowed for the night. So I called Min's house number, cos it's the only thing I remember. She wasn't home, so her dad gave me her handphone number. Then I called her and got LauraN's and Sham's numbers and called. By then the play was supposed to start in 5 minutes. So I called, panicked, went back to the MRT station, took a cab, was drenched with sweat, and was just in time for the starting scene. We also took many photos! And after it was over, I went for supper with Erica. We ended up going to the Esplanade for ice cream and cotton candy. Then she called her mom to pick us up cos it was nearing twelve. Let's just say we had a fun little adventure running about trying to find out where her mom was waiting for us that included dashing across a very wide junction road and climbing up creepy staircases that look like they could be the setting for horror stories.

Saturday was the day I finally got to sleep in. HOORAY! Woke up at 1pm and got ready to go for cell meeting at Sunhaven. But I was still a bit dumb and forgot to bring part of my dance costume for later on's YA conference performance and went back to get it. So I was late for cell and missed prayer and worship, but was strangely there for praise. And then there was sharing as well. But BenA, Faithe, Serene and all the other facilitators, you all did an awesome job(: Then I left at 5 to head to church and got ready for the dance performance. We had our stage run, dinner, slight warm-ups, prayer, and then the performance itself. And I think that Sajuto is an amazing dancer. Really talented. I'm part of his fan club along with my sister, Grace and Meredith. After dance, I went down to the youthroom to study for the geography test and went home after my sister came down from the conference.

Sunday was like a relax, recover, study, watch Naruto day. Didn't go out at all cos I was feeling a bit sick (still do, by the way) and had a lot more to study for geog. Spent the day snacking while studying and taking breaks by watching Naruto. I'm now on episode 20. And we had sushi for dinner(:

Monday is today! The geography test was easier than I expected and I'm really thankful to God that the questions covered the stuff that I was more confident in. Today, ShuLi, Nic and I came up with our own Trivia quizzes. Like a "How Well Do You Know ShuLi?" sort of thing. And I realised that I really need to get to know my friends better! Yes that is a hint to all of you out there. Maybe the facebook thing on writing 25 facts about yourself isn't so pointless after all, huh.

Okay, that's my longest post ever, I think. I'll leave you all with this awesome quote from Nic. This is how she plans to break up with her boyfriend.

"Your'e like peanut butter, I'm like kaya. It's not possible."

Quiz results! Found some on Jud's blog and decided to have a go.

What type of person do you attract? Your Result: You attract models! Congrats, something about you makes those model-quality people flock to you. This is good for obvious reasons - they look great, just having them nearby attracts other models, and it opens doors for you - like exclusive clubs and whatnot. If you are seeking pure physical beauty, you are all set. If you are seeking someone that is not cynical and slightly bitter about humans in general, someone focused on the human condition and intellect, then you are out of luck - but who cares, you attract models!
You attract geeks!
You attract artsy people!
You attract unstable people!
You attract Yuppies!
You attract rednecks!
