Basically, your welcome message
right here.


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

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!

Haha I hardly have any percentage of water.

Hey friends. Haven't updated in some time. Ok, I shall tell you the interesting stuff about what's been happening.

Friday was really awesome(: Went to Crescent to perform for their Crez Awards event thing. Sarah Swee invited us (Dedi-K-ted) cos she was helping out for the event. And she is really amazing. Like really really. Extremely professional. And I love Crescent! It looks really colourful and happy. And all of them at the event were so enthusiastic. They even cheered before our performance started when they didn't know who we were. Haha. And the guys had their fan clubs, too.

Saturday was cool too. I'd say the best part of my day was the service itself, and I'm so glad that God moved the way He did during praise and worship. During dinner later on, I got to know this girl called Christie who is relatively new to our church. She moved here from Batam to study. I like her(: Haha. Anyway.

Sunday... Service in the morning, studying and a little bit of dance in the afternoon, then dance practice at night at studio. I wanted to go for Char's birthday celebration, but it was a bit late after dance ended considering I had school the next day and still needed to study for chinese ting xie.

Monday, had school and was sleepy almost the whole way through. Went to Geylang Methodist Secondary later on for the breakthrough camp performance. It was cool too(: I'm a bit lazy to type out all the details of what happened for the rest of the night.

Today (Tuesday) was unexciting until school ended. The sec 4 drama SYF people went to this rehearsal for the play we're gonna watch this Friday directed by Claire. We mainly just helped to paint the set, but it was cool either way. Now my conference shirt has brown paint on it.

Gahh. (:

Hey friends, I'm in love. By that I mean I'm in love with Paramore's "Let The Flames Begin" and Red Jumpsuit Apparatus' "You Better Pray".

Anyway, school today was awesome. During the one-hour-long common recess, Nic and I pigged out together at the bench area and talked loads. I told her my whole school lifestory and she thought it was pretty eventful. Then she told me hers (or at least up til her kindergarten days) and that was when I realised that she was every bit as dramatic when she was 4 as she is now.

Yeah I blogged this just to let you all know that.

Hey friends! Let me summarise all my days for you so far.

Saturday was awesome cos I could sleep in. Went to church in time for daybreak, helped Joy with a promo, GOP service, girls' talk thing, choing-ing Grace on the Disturbia routine (she's a fast-catcher), 1st floor at the bench area, went home, watch TMNT (I love it, they're totally cool, don't you agree? Especially Leo), watched Hercules and Mulan til 3am, slept.

Sunday was good too. Church service in the morning, attempted studying with Jarrold and Sean (Sean is one of the worst people to study around, and Jarrold, Naruto isn't as awesome as Inuyasha), rushed to learn a new part for Disturbia, dance at studio.

Monday: School, orthodontist appointment (I got my bottom braces put in), went to HMV to grab Folie A Deux and Circus, home immediately to load it into my ipod. Nothing much went on after that. But I was sniffing and sneezing for majority of the day and was so traumatised that I might have caught Jarrold's cold but it went away and I'm totally fine.

Honestly, I'm too lazy to blog about today. But drama's been getting better and better, I'm starting to like my juniors more.










*Insert sad poem/song lyrics here*

Sorry, just needed to try that out.

Hey friends. I'm just here to celebrate the fact that I got FOB's Folie A Deux today!!!

Yes that's all.

Oh right. And I feel like shooting a lot of people now. No, not the bang bang shoot. The other one.
[edit: ok, fine. that's not very nice or compassionate of me, is it?]

Much love! (:

Time for disney posts again! I just watched Peter Pan 1 and 2 just now. And I love it! Especially 2, I think it's actually better than the first.



One was awesome too! I give it... 3.75 out of 5 stars. Haha. Just that the majority of the soundtrack sounds rather out-dated already except for the song the Lost Boys sang about following the leader. My sis and I always sing that together. Fun times... But I can't stand Wendy, I think she's quite hopeless, honestly. And Tinkerbell is a... She's mean. HA. Haha.



Two was so much better in my opinion. Cos it gets a lot funnier, although Peter is still a flirt. And Wendy still has feelings for him. Urghh. But I like Jane! She's cool cos she can fend for herself most of the time, unlike her dear mother. And the way she flies is much cooler than Wendy who flailed her arms around weirdly. I give this 4 out of 5 stars.



But you know what I don't get? They say that it's the "second star to the right", meaning the second from right. So, won't it be the star on the left instead? But NOOOO, they go and fly into the one on the right. Which would mean they should say "second star to the left", right? I mean, if they want it to be the one on the right side, they should just



Anyway. Goodbye!

As the title above suggests, I love sweating. And I seem to be doing so quite often nowadays. PE classes, dance at church or o school, exercise during CCA... Fun(:

Anyway, let me tell you this: My mom is a professional lizard exterminator.

She really is! Yesterday night I saw this huge lizard in the toilet hiding at one corner. So I was just like, "Oh, mom there's a lizard right by the corner of the door just so you know." Then she told me to sit there and make sure the lizard didn't run away (which I did) while she casually went off to boil water which she later used to kill the poor thing. And she just asked me: "Who do you love, me or dad?" I gave her the politically correct answer, which is "Both". And I do love both.

School's been awesome, if anyone wants to know.

I'm eating this Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate with popping candy. It's awesome!! And it really does pop in your mouth. And you can actually taste the popping candy. You should try it someday too.

Ok, just a few shoutouts:

Hello!

I've realised most of my posts have been about Disney so far. So this shall be a proper, non-Disney post.

Saturday
I finally got my keyboard! Hooray hooray hooray. I even woke up at 9am for it. And spent a good 2 to 3 hours playing on it. Then I went online and watch youtube videos. Nigahiga stuff, more specifically. And it's so awesome! Really. If I had a youtube account, I'll subscribe right away. You all should go watch all the videos. Went to church after that! Service was really great, from the praise and worship (I'm still over-joyed that Gaius led "More Than Life") to the sermon to the post-party. The long cell-talk with ShuJing was worth it too.

Sunday
Finally went for Sunday service! Yay. And I was freezing the whole time cos I couldn't find any of my hoodies. I know, quite absurd right? Cos I have quite a few. Went for lunch at Mac's (more like I was dragged to lunch by Mel and Alicia) and studied bio in the youthroom for a while before getting side-tracked and talking to people like Sean and Meredith when she came later. Then there was dance! Hooray. It was a really fruitful session, and we got lots of things done.

Okay, time for a few shoutouts.

Sean, I'll be busy memorising all those lyrics! You'd better start looking up on the chords, yes?
Mel, remind me to give you the links when you see me online!
Gum, I need more time with you. And then we'll come up with even more weird pair-nicknames for us!
Jarrold, you'd better start stocking up your wardrobe with more shirts like the one you wore today and yesterday.
Kelly, so how was Hercules?
Lizzie, we should have a Disney and Harry Potter marathon one day.
Joy, I just wanted to put you up here too! Much love.
Colin, hey friend I need to catch up with you, I'm barely even speaking a word to you these days.
Grace, Alicia, Danellia, you all did awesome today! We'll definitely put up one (ok, maybe three) spectacular performance for His glory.

This is an iPod quiz so you gotta answer by shuffling your iTunes :D
Ripped from Lizzie.

I'll even dance along to it.

Wow, that must have been a cool dream. No, that's not sarcasm.

You're always thinking of: High And Lifted Up - Hillsong Live

You would describe yourself as: Baby Don't Go - Fabolous Feat. T-pain

My mistake was: The Time Has Come - Hillsong United
Oh dear.

You can't understand: Candyman - Christina Aguilera

Rap is: Was It Worth It - Keyshia Cole
Yes, it was.

The best thing in the world is: Love Game - Lady GaGa
Haha, I disagree.

You act like: Fame *less than sign* Infamy - Fall Out Boy
I'm so annoyed, I can't put the proper song title here cos it'll affect the HTML tags.

I'll have a: 369 - Cupid Feat. B.O.B.

You can't explain: Don't Cha - PCD

You sing when: Wait A Minute - PCD

It's true that: Sneakernight - Vanessa Hudgens

Prison is for: Miscommunication - Timbaland Feat. Keri Hilson

You want to find: Thanx 4 Nothin' - Mariah Carey

You fear: Keep My Heart - Jeff Deyo
This makes me sound like some sad, tragic person. I'm not.

You didn't like: Nobody Gotta Know - JC

You want your significant other to be: My Heart - Paramore
Wow that's suitable.

You don't have to worry about: Pick It Up - Planetshakers
