2007-04-14T08:00:00.001-07:00

I’m parched , I’m parched , I’m parched
Uh, is that raggy-kumar’s rule of three ,
Am I correct ?

Oh , I think I kinda like Organic Chemistry
Cos it’s so healthy leeehhh

I’ve got muscle aches from Wednesday’s Napfa
And so does everyone else .

Did I mention that Cheryl Soh is damn naggy ?
I don’t think so .

Cheryl Soh is damn naggy !

LAMENTATIONS ;

2007-04-10T07:40:00.000-07:00

Phew
I barely managed it

i hear Rayna's gone back home
and i'm so sad, why does she
have to go home !

I hate icecream disasters

drip drip drip
all over .

things to do ; biobiobio geog
the stupid history homework .

2007-03-29T02:32:00.001-07:00

i totally love kim.
WAHAAHAHA

2007-03-24T17:54:00.000-07:00

I watched Band of Brothers cos my brothers forced
me to watch and it's so nice i'm telling you
Anyway , i just want to clarify
i'm not grounded okay .

i was busy
haha , don't ask with what
i want to go buy the so many things i saw
at the shopping mall the other day

my breakfast is coming ,
i'm so hungry
and i say school's being an ass

2007-03-08T06:20:00.000-08:00

It's Meet-the-Parents tomorrow
i hope shorty shuts his mouth and stops
being a bitch for once, or at least a day

Yes, i've got almost everything i want
everything except you

DISCRIMINATION ;

2007-03-01T06:37:00.000-08:00

do not be taken in by a woman's
beauty, never lose your head over
a woman

What the hell am i talking about ?!
Suddenly i pop into class,
everyone gives me food enough to last
me through the entire day
well much thanks for trying to
re- create the whole Hansel & Gretal gingerbread
house thing, cos i really appreciate it

Tomorrow, we're going to the incineration plant,
don't ask me which, it's some incineration plant
yes yes , i know what's going through your mind
Like how damn smelly can it get ?!
i hope shorty lee falls into the pit hole anyway
and that'll be the last of him
the good thing is, we don't have lessons tmrw !
and i get to go shopping after learning journey.

then then then,
today we were talking about things during geog
this is what happens when geog girls
are lulled into a state of boredom ;

-

Mitch : ehhh, you know in 2010, some company is
coming up with a robot that serves you drinks ?

Amanda : Huh, later become like iRobot how, so freaky

Mitch : don't scare me lah

Amanda : They all become bad !

Mitch : can you imagine if later, the robot rapes you

Amanda : Eeew , like eeew. Imagine having robotic sex

Mitch : Haha, like "take out your clothes now"

Amanda : ohhh, and when they kiss, the human will get
an electric shock! Electrodes man

Mitch : hahha, "Ejaculating in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1"

Entire table : bursts out laughing

It's so freaking damn freaking damn funny
i laughed till my tummy ached,
but not a good enough excuse to go home, apparently
& i want want to go to Stacey's bedok house
so i can crash in on her videos, yet again

Read this ;

Mrs. Raj : Girls, don't forget to add in the local flavour
in your essays, like "beehoon" (vermicelli)
Us : can we write lah
Mrs. Raj : No Singlish Allowed!
Us : Why.
Mrs Raj : what are you going to write in
as an explanation for lah anyway
Us : "lah" (Singaporean full-stop)
eg. I was late lah
Mrs Raj : No lah, cannot lah

I have thus deduced from a conversation with
shorty lee that there is no point in going to school
you go to school, not pay attention in class
and get scolded for not paying attention in class
Wah , might as well stay at home right

The stomach takes in all kinds of food
but some food are better than others.
As the palate discerns the flavour of game,
so a shrewd man detects lying words.
A perverse heart causes sorrow,
an experience man knows how to pay him back

your heart of gold discharged
and plated my silver spoon

Sexy, Sleazy, Saucy

2007-02-26T01:37:00.000-08:00

the sins of the father
shall not be put onto the son

Mrs Raj : "you know why you lost so many marks in your essay?"
Amanda : " Ahh .."
Mrs Raj : "it's because of your handwriting, you know what you can do?"
Amanda : " Uhh .. "
Mrs Raj : "Write bigger lah!"

Wahlao, everyone's telling me to change my
handwriting, even stacey is!
like stacey!
Anyway, i shall force myself to let my
dad sign my test paper.

i still want to eat carrot cake leh!
Carrrrrot cake!
Oxy found a baked lizard today,
and we wanted to scare cheryl with it
but guess what,
she picked it up, and started wagging it at joanna
cos joanna was being an irritant,
so i have have have to say this
Congratulations cheryl! you touched a real-live
though baked lizard!

Everyone loves my new boyfriend
cos he's so cute,
Hahhha, & deborah has to go taking
his head and showing him around
(inside joke)

thanks to Mrs. Lungs, we now have to
sit properly with our legs crossed,
cos showing our thighs is just too indecent
and what did she say ?
oh yes, it sends out certain social signals
just say body-language Mrs. Lungs,
stop tring to make it sound so lovely cos it doesn't

Grace & I totally agree the thai food at Bukit Timah's nice
but the ambience is a bit off if you want
to bring friends
but nevertheless, i shall bring mitch, oxy
& pester madeline, cos they'll love love it

Lying is an ugly blot on a man,

and ever on the lips of the ignorant

A theif is preferable to an inveterate liar,

but both are heading for ruin

Lying is an abominable habit,

so that disgrace is the liar's for ever

There are 3 sorts of people my soul hates,

and whose existence I consider an outrage :

a poor man with pride,

a rich man who is a liar

and an adulterous old man who has no sense

I realise that the bible makes

a good literature textbook,

and coming from me,

you'd better believe that

cos bibles aren't exactly my cup-of-tea

Counting the minutes to tuition,

and help.

2007-02-23T18:43:00.000-08:00

The Top 6 People who do these cute things :

(in no particular order)

Grace Ooi's 1000 words a minute ramblings
& her mispronounciations

Deborah's laughter!

Valerie's smalllllness

Tessa's logic

Yiwei's hair ,

Wentworth Miller's everything

hahhha, actually,
i'm pretty sure there're more
i'm just way too lazy to think
Jessica Choy and i counted and counted
and we realised that we've to study
110 pages for the Geog test on monday
Oh Great ):

we had this huge dream during & after geog class
we dreamnt that if we have one billion
we would be able to spend a million a month
for 83 years . Years okay.
Like how damn good is that,

i love the way grace says ang-moh chap

LITTLE EMPEROR ;

2007-02-23T18:19:00.000-08:00

I'm so depressed. I failed Biology
I'm so depressed. I failed Biology
I'm so depressed. I failed Biology
I'm so depressed. I failed Biology
I'm so depressed. I failed Biology
I'm so depressed. I failed Biology
I'm so depressed. I failed Biology

I'm so sad okay, how the hell am I going
to show my parents lah, Shit!
my progress report is definitely going
to look so damn ugly,
i hope they don't give sec fours
progress report ?
Fat Fat FAT hope ):

Mrs. Jean Tan talked to me today
and she said she'll be watching me closely
this is so bad,
and she's going to ask me questions in class
Work-harder! Must, Must , Must!

I saw this nice pink & green bag in the magazine
that's so bloody nice,
we're all going to town to get it,
everyone loves it!
Everyone excluding Mitch & Stacey
They're damn anti-climax one

I've fallen in love with Mahjong ever since
playing it at Nicole's , it's so addictive
Grace Oooi is going to play with me (:
Grace Ooi owes me many MANY things,
MANY!
and Xunqi's being such a bitch i swear
Ew, ew, Ewwws
Everyone who owes me Angbao, please pay up

2007-02-21T05:26:00.000-08:00

Only we, are able to truly understand
the joy of shopping - hosanna

Listening to guys bitch & gossip is somewhat
priceless, but not that priceless
Sorry guys, but you're not worth that much
Ha , ha , ha

I saw this totally nice! Elle fashion magazine
from the UK, it's like A5 in size, and really
nice & posh & glam
It's $25 and kim wanted to get it for me
but me being nice me politely declined
although my heart said otherwise
Kkkkiiim! I wannnnttt

Friday was Mila's birthday
schoo was pretty fun cos we were supposed to
only have one hour of lesson, but had 20 minutes
instead because they decided to run the
Emergency Drill. Some drill,
we all knew it was a fake bomb lah
Anyway, they packed us up and sent us to the hall
after an hour of recess and we had the Chinese New Year
celebrations then
I thought some of the performances were rather random
but everyone was talking about the face-changing act!
it was kinda disappointing that we couldn't sing songs
however, i enjoyed myself nonetheless whilst leaning
against the pillar

After school, we saw a handful of ungracious students
at the bus stop. Firstly, this group of sec ones
came up to stand in front of us,
since we were all snatching to get cabs

Us: Excuse me, but we came first.
Can you all go to the back?
Subsequently, after much polite asking, we got fed-up
Ing: Oi! don't be inconsiderate la, go to the back/
Ing: Can you move aside?!
Ing: you better watch out!

Ha ha, Really.
but in the end, we gave our cab up to
the much nicer sec threeees
The squeezing up the bus incident was stupid
I think that (they) spent so much time stupidly deciding
whether or not to alight.

Agh, fast forward to shopping!
Inggrid & I went crazy in Zara cos we had this sudden urge
to go try on all the shoes there.
So we stepped out of our shoes, took off our socks and started
walking barefooted around the store, grabbing shoes
off the shelves and wearing them
Then, we pranced around in them and started
oohing and aahing
we both fell-in-love with this pair of really
nice black, shiny shoes, like pumps on wedges
It's so freaaaaking nice, i'm going to get it!
I say , we were scavengers on a shoe hunt!

Money Money, i need money
said a poor lil girl ):

Highlight of the day: I had starbucks coffee!
which sent me to heaven and back again
Father says coffee shop coffee is the best
but i say that coffee no caramel, no ice-blended,
no whipped cream ):

One , Two , Three
DAMNS!

Angbaos from Chinese New Year
glorious food, and sinful snacking (:
I hate the two hour long traffic jam,
in which i spent my time wisely cursing & swearing
but i love my relatives!

Whoooope,
when it comes to Prison Break,
i'm the top of the current!
Beat me man!

PRETTY UGLY ;

2007-02-16T18:53:00.000-08:00

Slap the teacher,
Slap Slap Slap
Slap all the assignments
Slap the tests too

I'm so disappointed with my results
Don't say there isn't anything to
be disappointed in cos i didn't study
there's a lot to be okay
I'm sinking into depression
Gah

THINK TANK ;

2007-02-15T06:40:00.000-08:00

I spotted so many careless mistakes on
my A math paper!
disappointing or not you tell me ):

Tomorrow is going to be so
Fun Fun Ffffun fun
what with all the sing-song celebrations,
the lunch out after that &&& shopping
OhMyGod, like shopping, finally
i have decided not to bring anything to
school tomorrow
Watch me breeze into class carrying
absolutely nothing (:

We, Mitch & I, totally owned Chemistry lesson
in the lab today. Guess guess why
cos we washed our burette the conventional way
well, at least according to mitch it was
Ha! And i think ours was the fastest yet cleanest
but we made the floor wet!
And our experiment yesterday was
the fastest to the maxy maxie mum
"Faster ffffassster, chemists are fast!"
Ahahha, so fun, i love practicals

The rose Tessa gave me is flopping all over
the petals are like, spreading
and all this while i've been trying to
put the stigma and the anther together
to get them to mate! but it doesn't seem to work leh
Tess must have given me a stubborn flower ):

fifteenth febuary was damn long
and for the first time in God knows how long
i actually felt really sleepy in class
Damns, stupid Chinese remedial takes up
my free-time, and thainoodlehouse has to be closed
for this holiday, double-damns

再见
您的名字是什么
Oh yeah, zheeeen xiao ling & suuuu xue ke
i'm proud of myself for completing
my chinese worksheets in 15 minutes
and writing such short answers for comprehension,
i'm pretty sure it's screwd
but ohwells, her answer scheme pisses me off
it's freaking short, so i write freaking short this time

happy birthday Mila
thanks for everything
the past year(s) and this
I won't ever forget you
Iloveyou Mila Mei-La! (:

FIRST KISS ;

2007-02-14T04:45:00.000-08:00

i keep my gum in a box so
that it breathes
i'm pretty sure it's still alive

It's Valentine's day today , and i spent it in school
Yes yes, i know.
Bad climax, or rather, none at all
but what to do, i had no choice but to stay back
untillll six okay cos i got my daddy to pick me up
since he was on leave and might as well lah

Thankkkks everyone for the gifts
and the roses, although dead, but ah
why does everyone associate me with _____
stupid Stupid dumbo

Chemistry test was highly retarded only
because i totally forgot to bring my calculator,
and i couldn't bring myself to ask that
fatso old moley guy
so i just tolerated it and did manual calculation instead
Pro okay! but i forgot how to subtract manually
and then i started to panic like Shiiiit, cancel where again ?!
Biology was pretty much full of drawing
where i forgot that cucumbers have vascular tissues ):
Gosh, how bad can it get, seriously

I'm asking, is anyone going to do their nails & hair ?
cos even if Haley says she is,
i still can't trust her
like hell, her building is there without basic foundation
she's a person who'll say say say already ah
then back down
too unreliable, better find someone(s) else

Chemisty Peer-tutoring sessions are hot only
because we get to do fellowship!
-
Cheryl: Would you choose someone who loves you,
or someone whom you love?
Amanda: Of course someone I love la, where got the other one,
so wierd!
Nicole: Haha!, Amanda's always logical
Tessa: Amanda loves logic, that's why she takes amath
Amanda: Tess! Where did that come from?

Hilarious or not you tell me.

I'm trying to wash off the pain & confusion
so I see it was all a facade on your part.
Oh, how tragic

CHERYL'S NAGGING ;

2007-02-12T02:23:00.000-08:00

Whoooo areeee youuu

OXY & I ;
Loook there

Say Cheese!
Debby Duck

Smelly Cubicle
Daohui Cheryl & I

KNOW WHY ;

2007-02-12T02:05:00.000-08:00

I'm yelling bitch
and no one hears me

Sometimes it really feels damn frustrating
and it hurts deep inside
(although i do hate to acknowledge that)
when someone does somethings to you that you don't like

Anyway, i took the bus to school today
for about the third time in my entire life i swear
and i was counting stops till i reached school
Gosh, how totally boring
but i thought i saw a someone on the bus
I'm hating Cheryl's camera right now cos
it's screwing up big time!
or rather, her computerrrr

At the beginning of this year,
I tell myself i have to study hard and not
go playing around after school and during school time
But i end up doing the opposite
and it really isn't my fault that i have to talk in class
Hahaha, it isn't my fault either that my friends
want to talk to me

Rayna really shifted out of class
though i tried, without much success, to drag her back
And Ms. Lee had to totally corner me with her
stupid sttttupid questions that i made up
answers for
Crazy, just cos you have no date doesn't
mean you have to take up my Valentine's right

Everyone loves the corn snack that i brought to school
and it isn't pop-corn please
so everyone has been kop-ing my Toblerone too
Tobllllerone Rebecca, it's Toblerone.

Forty-five minutes to Math tuition,
Three hours fifteen minutes to freedom

i wasn't supposed to react that way

BLACK SHEEPS ;

2007-02-09T06:05:00.000-08:00

I hate mosquito bites, damn itchy okay
I think i've got many of them ):
I hope it goes away before Chinese New Year

I'm so sad i failed A/math, but i'm kinda happy in a sad way too
Haha, because i didn't get a single digit mark like i expected
Valentine's is coming,
what shall i make ?
what shall i make.
Hm, no time la, stupid people pushed the stupid tests
on us during the first three days of the week
So, where got time to make like that

Rayna is so bad, i don't like Rayna for cheating me of my feelings ):
she's totally going to transfer to another class laaaa ,
and no more singing songs in class anymore
Ha! We got everyone to join in for
"This is the day.. "
Now, we can't anymore ):

Tessa totally got my high on Mal-teasers,
so i brought this huge pack of Mal-teasers,
ordered in hokkien mee & started feasting, with Marshmallows
during Chinese remedial
Mal-teasers are so good, So good!
i shall go get more

OhMyGod, day out shopping next friday
quick quickkkk come (:
they made us sit in for the receiving your
O-level results today,
and we saw so many people crying ):
I want to be able to leave that hall saying
"Let's go eat in town till the next day"
& sccccreeeeaaaam

i'll right all my wrongs

SCHOOL LIFE ;

2007-02-03T21:04:00.000-08:00

the Dude & the Dudetteee

Crazy Poses

SHOW & TELL ;

2007-02-03T17:06:00.000-08:00

on a one way ticket
to hell and back

I had no idea Rebecca could be quite so bitchy
We were just talking about ..
I wonder if anyone overheard our enigmatic conversation
peppered with laughter

Cheryl Soh complained that I eavesdropped on her conversations,
but do I ?
It's more a case of them talking too loudly,
pffft/ i don't like Joyce too, ha
Hello Nicholas! My ulcer hurts, ulcer hurts ):
Quick quick break up, don't wait anymore
you'd better listen to me this time, although
i know it's supposed to be the other way round

I think it's long due ice-cream
followed by sushi, then Ouuutttt
I know, Chinese New Year is in two weeks
but that means two weeks more of tests too ):
Let's all wear (saries) for Racial Harmony okkkkay
I so badly want to wear a damn costume
who's going for Prom Night ?
I've no idea if i want to go just yet
but they're all already planning,
Presidential Suite, squeeze people, party parttttyyy
Make-up make-up, & all the gossips!

Is it our chocolate day again tomorrow?
I need to check

I know you tried so hard to salvage us
I'm just sorry I was too ignorant

SNICHETS ;

2007-02-02T06:04:00.000-08:00

Ahaha, someone bring me to Hollywood
or buy him for me , whatever
I'm very flexible as it is

Anyway, i get high on curry , yes!
& apparently i'm sitting next to a haley whom mitch
says needs bug-spray
we're having so much fun in class capturing this & that
and when i have the time, i'll do it all up here

As for now, i have to say that i am very very depressed
cos the stupid A/math paper was so bloody difficult,
i only knew how to do Q1a and the graph question
it was damn pathetic la,
i got stuck at proves, shit

OhMyGod, more of Prison Break is ouuuuttt
i can't believe Jamie's still as Season one
hahaha, she needs a huge push i'm telling you
less tests next week, less seeing the form teacher

Crazy discipline rules,
Crazy too free certain members of the public
who are so damn virteous, they've never
jumped a queue before
Oh , Wow.
they deserve this.

I didn't go for something today cos many someones
didn't go too, hahahha
Sorry Ing, i mean Virgin,
i pangseh-ed you the other day, & Oxy too
Dodo is being disobedient, it doesn't want to take
walks in the garden every morning ):

I don't want to change geog teacher,
if not cannot go late for classes, and go run off
to buy chicken anymore
not that i care about the chicken part,
i'm never going to eat that Ever again
they gave me a bloody chicken laaaa

Kim's s funny, she calls her teachers fart-face
and uhm, more sushi munching & bacon stickkkks

SING A SONG ;

2007-01-27T22:23:00.000-08:00

Prison Break is so hot
Prison Break is so hot

Ahhhh, i've just finished watching the entire
second season of Prison Break & it's good-good-good!
Everyone should catch it la
i think the plot's damn good & Michael is so sweeeettt
Hahahha , okay.

Tennis later if the weather permits,
then off for a wedding dinner

Anyway, I was just wondering about how certain
people tend to manipulate events just to suit their
purposes or desires
Whatever it is, it's just disgusting
I hate it when other people are taken advantage of

time to say goodbye
although it was meant for long time ago

MOPPET ;

2007-01-24T06:00:00.000-08:00

I was highly amused
- Mrs. Raj on our writing

Today’s English lesson was spent talking
About school rules.
Then she asked if we wanted a session with
Mr. Anthony, and all of us we like “Noooo!”
He’s so not friendly, whatever prompted her to say that

Agh,
They’re piling tests on top of tests on us
I’ve got 5 tests next week
Not forgetting the awful trip back to school
On Saturday for extra history lesson
Nobody’s looking forward to that ):

Thanks for all the homework,
And thanks for all the sarcasm
Mila, welcome to the front
you’ve got us for company

CHEET/CHEAT -TOS ;

2007-01-21T04:42:00.000-08:00

Damns-its,
Fion is so adorable
she's giving me nail-polish tomorrow
cos i'm on this rush rush to remove
the bimbotic pink on my toes
Gah, bye bye effort ):

Prison Break is so hot hot hot i swear,
i'm going to get more of it !
look at Wentworth Miller, he's oozing
charisma & sex appeal
Hahahha, okay. But i do pay attention to the
show, and i love the plot
An Oscar for the director please
I wish they test this for O-Levels

Anyway, Dodo pang-seh/ed my today la
like totally okay, so i went for tennis alone
and i know, i'm soft ahaha
Stupid rain's being a stubborn bitch
but i want the Garden of Eden dry
hear that rain, i want to sit there under
the what-ever tree and enjoy the breeze
you don't screw things up for me

It's not fair that Valerie gets to
spend time with cute company but i don't ):
yes yes, caden/candence or caden is here
My nearest available company is Danny
but he bullies me!
I shall thus continue with this severe case of the small
bullying the big
Haley bullies me la!
I shall have to implement certain drastic measure
like wearing armour to school

Composition writing test tomorrow,
where's inspiration ?!

POOR TOLLS ;

2007-01-20T22:12:00.000-08:00

I'm going to bring cammie along with me
to school this Friday,
so no one is allowed to be absent
You hear me! Especially the likes of
Valerie and Rayna
I swear, Mr Anthony is like a time bomb
gone terribly wrong
it's as if it's 00:01 and OhNo! it's going to blow
then it resets itself and starts counting upwards

Hahahha, Anyway i'm so happy now
cos i finally forced Mitch the Bitch
to eat McDonalds and she blames me thereafter
for breaking her seven-month record ):
BlahBlahBlackSheep.
this was not before we "camped out"
in the school hall trying our damn best to sit
really properly cos Pervert Tan was there,
and he was obviously the highlight of our conversation

We can be cheerleaders for the Mr. Lim Ha-Ha sqaud
already, cos he's a really cutely retarded old man
who loves push-ups
MHMM, i get it now.
I don't like crowded buses,
I don't like puddles everywhere
how irritating

I came home last night smelling
like dog fur, dog saliva, dog this, dog that
in short, like dog.
thanks to the parttttyyyae

THE LAST STRAW ;

2007-01-18T04:08:00.000-08:00

(to view picture, click here)

I turned around,
you looked at me
I smiled at you,
you gave one back

Thing is, I don't particularly take to sitting next
to crazy old men who reek of cigarette smoke
and alcohol. What a disgusting concoction.
I suddenly became a passive somker for the
last 15 minutes of the bus ride
it was torturous i'm telling you

Mr. Loser Lily Lee is a complete fuck-face okay
he deserves to die, and i mean it
Like bury his face somewhere where
the world won't notice it
Bastardo! He keeps on calling on Mitch & I,
& some teachers' sarcasm just rubs us the wrong way
that's why we don't like sarcastic teachers

Oh. I totally got called up in front of the entire
school for improper uniform blahbahblah
so i've to make changes etc etc etc.
I've got Borat & Prison Break from
Valerie, and scoop's nice only cos
there's Hugh Jackman in it
I love glam nail-polish, it's like
natural pink and bimbotic pink, uh-oh

So Mr. Loser Lily Lee had to change my place again
third time already ah
I think by the end of this year i'ld have sat next
to every single person in class.
Is that a record or is that a record?
but what he doesn't know is that he's wrong
like whereever he puts me, i'm still going to talk right
and it so happens that this time,
he decides Lo and Behold! i shall place
Amanda next to Haley, which is where
everybody is.

TA-DANG, i've to learn how to talk at
0.000154645531 seconds per word
the (in) thing now: making prank calls
I swear, it totally gets me on high
we did the voice recording thing, playback,
called Michelle, and she totally fell for it
but we laughed so damn hard, we screwed it up
cos we couldn't enter the thing in time ):

Computer: Hello, is this Michelle?
This is the general office calling

we wanted to do Hosanna & Madeline
too but they were busy and didn't answer the calls
Oh, and guess what
someone's stealing all my stuff ;
my yearbook, planner, chinese textbook, chocolate cake
Wahlao, please stop stealing already la
i need to lug a safe to school or something

Stupid upcoming tests everyday ):
Hohoho, i've got myself a new pet, Do-do!
i even got a leash for (it), and i let
everyone take turns to hold (it)

thanks for tomorrow,
and the day after tomorrow,
and the day day after tomorrow
thanks for everyday.

I'm so stressed, i get irritated easily
which ain't really good,
cos a puffer-fish makes no snapper-fish good

LAST LAST STRAW ;

2007-01-15T06:31:00.000-08:00

What's the most vulgar word that's forbidden
here in Singapore ?
BOMB,
yes bomb.

Anyway, i am so not in high spirits today
i shall officially declare, on the 15th of January
at this time, this day, this place, aha aha aha
that i have lost my plannnnner!
FRRrreaAAAAK
it's either lost/stolen,
i would prefer to think the latter
i'm still hoping, against hopes, that it's somewhere
around in class, which then again seems highly
impossible, considering that from where
i'm seated, the only possible "places"
would be the bin or the teacher's table

Gah.
Of all things, why my planner ?!
why can't it be my textbook/ something else,
something less related to me ):
All my notes are in there!
The Dates!
The Notes!

Hahhaha, whatthehell, but i'm starting
to sound like a spoilt brat who didn't get his
daily dose of candies
i'm thinking i'm not looking forward to
sec four school life,
it's such a bore
everyday it's a repetition,
School, Rules, Study.
School, Rules, Study.
Homework, Nag, Frowns.
Homework, Nag, Frowns.
And so on & so forth, the list never ends
Nee ver

Hana Yori Dango is outtt
i shall take time off my busy schedule to catch it
Anyways, i'll be a neat girl tomorrow
(Grins), then at 0735 sharp, it all comes down

They're changing our school uniform next year
to two piece, Eew, Ew, EEW.
What are they thinking?
put cucumber in milk ah
i like this dress/frock/one piece
i shan't accept the new one

We skipped recess today & had a heated bible discussion
i mean really heated
Inggrid calls it propoganda, ha!
I call it pure ignorance
Ah, Val thinks the order of creation is important

First the Birds
then the Don't-know-what

Hosanna & I have a new favourite
nursery rhyme, B(L)AH B(L)AH BLACK SHEEP
and Mila & I can do the best
Scissors, Paper, Stone everrrr!

Question 1:
you and i , we're romantically linked

Explain the words in italics [2]

2007-01-14T05:30:00.000-08:00

Early tomorrow morning i'm going
to run run run up those nasty flight
of stairs to search for my planner.
Whatever it takes,
it has to be done

And i'm thinking of carrying this nice
damndamndamndamndamn
nice bag to school, but it's base
is kinda big
Everyone just says heck & carry lah
so Amanda'll carry (:
Niax

i want the same high i felt the other time

PISH-PASH ;

2007-01-12T17:54:00.000-08:00

I'm so depressed ):
i lost my planner okay, how am i expected to
look for all my dates et cetra
so i made my way to the General office on friday
all the while trying to convice someone that it's a
Ms. Chia, not a Mrs. Chia
& i was righttt!
Haha, anyway. it was so crowded, full of "sick" girls
who were trying to cheat their way home
i shall say i vommited the entire day to get my
passport out of the school gates the next time (:

My Plannnner,
i'm going to whine & whine & whine (English rule of three)
till i get it backkkk.
Everyone please, upholding integrity, pass it back to me ah

All the bitches should die
they deserve to die! ):
i don't like them, so gross
want to fight then fight la, don't because there're
people backing you up,
you suddenly pluck courage from thin air
& decide to open your mouth
Eew, bad breath

stupid bloody hippopopotamus who pao/tou-ed on us
Ugly Ugly Bitches ,
like do we look like we give a damn if you threaten us ?!

What are people who issue empty threats
but have no guts to carry them out called?

Answer: Pathetic losers whose faces must have
been so badly multilated, they decide that picking on
others shall become their all time new hobby.

Ugh. If you ever lay a finger on us,
or interfere in any sequence of events such that
one hair is disturbed,
i'll make sure i see you be grounded to nothing.
Firstly, you'll be chopped up into smitherins,
shapeless pieces undefined
Then i'll scatter you as chomp to the pigs/
Whatever remains that seem too disgusting even pigs
don't eat, will be left for the sea to claim

Goodbye dorsels,
hello damsels in distress

Okay, so Kim Grace & Grace and I were late for cca on friday
thus we got a punctuality nag from Ms. Chan!
now i owe her 2 hours and 15 minutes
how calculative ):
BOHO, i don't like don't like

Smelly perfume

P & C ت

2007-01-11T05:25:00.000-08:00

I have absolutely no idea why i can't upload an image
stupid thing probably conked up somewhere
in the middle again

Anyway, i think my form teacher's such a prejudiced guy
hey he is a shortie and he doesn't like tall people either
tall being those taller than him, no specific height needed
Gosh, he puts mitch and i in the front
claiming that we communicate too much and this will
affect our future (yeah right) assuming that we understand
whatever his short breath is trying to expel
i don't don't don't like him !

okay, so Ms. Ramlah totally came up to be whilst i took
my height & weight and started flopping my hair all over

Ms Ramlah: (peers at me) you're Amanda right?
Amanda: (Shit, am i that recognisable ?!) er, yes
Ms. Ramlah: look at your hair, it's so long, it can already be tied up
Amanda: mhm (i have no idea what that is, something incoherent la)
Ms. Ramlah: you want me to send you to the hairdresser?
Amanda: Butttt, No! I'll fix it

Eew, the whole time i was thinking,
okay okay, her eye liner is so disastrous
it's way too thick it makes her look like she just
got boxed up there
Mascara's naughty patty

So lao shi is being such a prick
she just dumps four compos on us like a breeze
and i hate the way she gives out worksheets,
because she does seem to have this unique talent
of flinging it onto your table in such a rude, uncaring manner
Head of Department indeed
but i don't really mind her, she isn't as bad after all
hence now you see the students of 4/three cramming chinese
homework instead, and studying for chinese tests
how absurd ;

Oh Great, i really do not like fridays
i know it's the end of the week and yadayahdayaaah
but i've got to remain in school until 5
what an awful kill-joy
the downside: they don't end punctually ):
Amanda's VERY BUSY!
VERY.
i have like tons of stuff left out there, waiting for me
to complete
Bahbahblacksheeeep

& i realise that i'm sitting in front for
almost all my classes
! how devastating,
haha na-ah it isn't that bad for most of them
Mila came over today,
we turned a study session into a pig-out session
funny or not, maybe we just have to admit
we can't sit down and study, not at this time of the year

Inggrid on the English banding :
"I'm going to spend english lessons seet-ing"
Ahahha, Mrs Seet though nice, sounds like a parrot/mouse
however you wish to define that shrill voice that
grates on your ears
which reminds me, my Santa Claus got picked
on for counselling
i wonder how she ta-haned all that counselling for half a day
i'ld have probably gone "Okay Ok, shut up already"
and cover my ears with my hands

ت we have to climb marvellous flights of staircase
up to the sec one level for geog lessons
which made me realise again how totally un-fit i am
i don't like being reminded of that
"You're un-fit, you're un-fit, you're unnn-fittt"
"Yes I know, yes i know, yes i know"
Ben turning up unannouced outside school scares me

Tessa & I have thus come to this conclusion that
history is bald
Hahahha
Tennis was so fun! T-E-N-N-I-S as hosanna spells it

STRIP TEASE ;

2007-01-06T21:08:00.000-08:00

bittere Rache/
bitter revenge

i certainly am not going to be apologetic for not
appreciating what people generally term
as "the finer things"
notice how most people tend to twist opinions
into facts, because they either usually think they're
so great & world-wise or they're just plain dumb
either way, we shall refer to these as huge pain in our asses

whatever it is, i still dislike it a lot when people spit
especially in public that is
note that the emphasis is on a lot
it's like i'm outside taking a walk or moving
my legs so i can get from one place to another
and along comes this guy/woman (usually very badly dressed)
with horrendous hair, and they spit
hell, i actually see it slowly transfering from the inside of
their mouth, to the ground/drain/grass patch

Yes, Ew.
my sentiments exactly,
everytime i hear this sound
"kkarrr-puuui"
i immediately go, okay there's spit somewhere
so i'd better tread carefully
then i might resort to walking on tip-toes
an unsuccessful attempt to being a ballerina obviously
& i never hesitate to plaster this disgusted expression
on my face for the guilty to see

OKAY,
so the sound might not have been very correct
but it's about there
heh, kinda reminds me of a rythm
like, Long, then short
oh alright, i'm so damn proud of myself for getting
a 70 for my piano examination
it's not a piece of cake, where you just snap your fingers
and you're done,
i forgot who, but some people actually can't pass Grade 1
so anyway, my sight-reading totally rocks
i was practically fumbling the whole way and
she passed me damn well (:
Thank You darrrrling

three more excruciating hours to meeting Mila
and heading off for tennis
we're taking lessons together,
& hweepeng's joining after the O-levels
this means that we can finally throw a tennis party!
Eh Cheryl Soh, look out
you're my first target ah

BOHO ,
finishing up my homework's
on today's agenda, sadly because
Mrs. Raj will make me fa zhan outside class
if i don't turn in my assignments
or my book doesn't show up
i saw a few students from 4/1 doing that cos
i took a sneak-peak before geog class
which resulted in my being late for geog class
which led to my sitting right in front and et cetera

Barney's New York; is the place to be
but that will have to wait till end November
cos school's being such a bitch

i'm not that naive

RAIN RAIN GO AWAY ;

2007-01-06T05:45:00.000-08:00

Valerieeee, i want to make you write (rong yi)
twenty times you poor dwarf, haha
Anyways, i want more 4 hours talks after school
where did they go to ?!
Shit, no more going out on eating/shopping sprees
time to get your butt on the chair & study

Mr. Lee is unto me
hahahha! i finally get to say that
Look mitch, since you're my partner for almost
all the classes, (they just had to do banding)
we cannnnot sleep in geog class okay!

i need to stock up on more gum
the ones rayna gave me were so pretty
but i still ate them anyway ):
Thank you all for your christmas presents
i love love love them till my socks reach
my neck,
i have to mention the one yiwei gave me
two antique drink bottles that are so damn rare
i had trouble opening them

school so far has been pretty much alright
not that much homework yet
but our light's already blinking away
cos all of us are just cramming holiday assignments
sec four teachers are all suckers for school rules
& i hate it that they have this "Get it Right" policy
where you have to be properly properly attired
before you step into the classroom

and what is with the
getting a hairdresser down to school to trim
our hair since we're infringing on the rules ?!
Like Ew.
$5 ain't cheap & good

Shit, we still haven't had our meatball lunch yet
i don't believe you can survive on 315 calories of a
subway sandwich and still manage to lose 3kg in five days

no more Ms. ChanLiYan to make fun of and to laugh at
during math lesson
she's the entertainment
without her, i end up doing worksheets way ahead of time
& actually paying attention in class
i wager we all regret complaining a bomb about Ms. Siti
too, cos i really want her back instead of that val-lEE-ya-mai
imposter, or look-a-like, smell-a-like whatever

we're in for bubble trouble

TURNED INSIDE OUT ;

2007-01-03T05:51:00.000-08:00

I bet everyone's rushing chinese homework now
cos the Chinese HOD had the luck to become
our chinese teacher, so she's screaming now
ha ha ha, it is kind of difficult to get our class
to hand in homework i'm sure

anyways, i must say, the first day of school
was pretty normal laaaa
nothing big, though the stupid school system
is so damn screwed up,
i'm hating the school rules so badly ):
like whhhat, being able to book us for not
doing homework ?!
whoever thought of that must have been real bored

The rumours did prove to be true however,
considering that Mr. Lee is our form teacher
i guess he's rather nice when he's not in his
i'm-pissed-and-yelling mood
so it's alright (for now)
note : for now

i went in early as promised
and found that we did manage to get the back seats
but in a wierd arrangement
thus we used our superb creative skills
to manipulate it such that
we shifted some of the front row chairs to the back
leaving a huge gaping gap in front of the teacher's table
which resulted in him commenting
"why is there a ___ river in front of my table"
Ah, silly guy who looks like a small kid

HELL-BIRDS ;

2007-01-01T03:38:00.000-08:00

das Platzen/das Plat'zen
bursting

i was woken up at unearthly hours on
New Year's eve to go for mass
like ?! thankfully i wasn't the only (kid) there
okay, so not kid. Youth would be more appropriate
that aside, i spent a part of my afternoon
reading The Tales of Pooh bear & friends
now, don't think "What, why would Amanda do that"
Amanda has decided to give the usual a break
and try other books instead
by the usual, i mean, well, the usual

i wanted to head down to who knows where
to party but in the end i felt so damn lazy
i scratched that plan
ha, imagine all that travelling i'ld have to do
&& public transport stops at midnight ?!

attended a wedding ceremony in some church
Evangelical church or something or that sort
& i must say this,
the wedding ceremony or whatever they call it
was so damn boring i actually slept through
most of it
haha no Father Richards to stare daggers at me
so i slept away
hell, that church didn't even have an altar
coming to think of it, i'm not sure they should
call it a "church" in the first place
bah Bah black sheeeep

the food was So-so,
i managed to grab some sushies that i spotted
from like metres away
hahaha, but some chocolate tart totally
spoilt my taste-buds for some seconds
they just went TZtsztzt -- OFF

the groom bytheway, was such a turn-off i'm sure
when it was time for the customary
"And the groom may now kiss the bride",
he just pecked her on the cheek
PECKED mind you, the keyword is PECKED
i was there sitting in my seat
thinking, uh-oh, this is bad, so bad
what the hell were you thinking groom ?!
okay, maybe he was just shy
that's not an excuse groom

onto something different,
i think Singaporeans are a bunch of ( )
fill in the brackets with whatever word/words
you think suits them best
when a particular food-centre tells them
to clear their own trays & tables
they very conveniently ignore that sign
and leave their tables full of their unsightly
crumbs and whatevernots
it's disgusting, i mean, they're obviously
taking advantage and abusing the fact
that cleaners are provided by the food-centre
so they have this thinking that Oh!, since they're cleaners
they're supposed to clean after me
key word being supposed

that's bull-bull-bull-shit
it's highly disgusting, and absurd
if they are so reliant on others to clean up after them,
why don't they just hire domestic workers or something
and it ain't my fault if you don't have the finances

i'm catching a wiff of some sweet aroma that smells
very like popcorn ,
Haha,
Thank God for diffusion (the good kind)
okay, tata, i shall go check out that scent

HELLO MY BODY ;

2006-12-29T19:29:00.000-08:00

Polterabend/pol'terr-ah-bent
nm. (-e)party on ever of wedding

i think i've got countless of adipose tissues
stored in my body, especially after
munching on that delectable cheese -durain tart
hahahha, i can't wait to pass everyone their
respective christmas cards
then then then, i don't know what to put in the
hanging thing, but i figure it looks awesome !

& in case you're wondering,
NO. i know it's kind of ridiculous to get
expensive underwear, when it is underwear
and no one'll get to see it,
but ha, i'm not "buying it for the first night
with my boyfriend" .
that's thinking way out of line
hahhha ,sorry, but your fish just let go
of its bait and dropped back into the ocean

Starbucks coffee is the thing.
i think i'm going to get one cup everyday
bring it to school, sip & listen to lesson
at the same time
oh, not forgetting our honey/stars
popcorn substitute ehhh

All the best for those going to new schools
i hope you make good new friends
as for me, well, i'll just keep my friends thank
you very much
though i seriously hope michelle's theory
doesn't prove to be right
"as the new year comes, old friends are lost,
and new friends are made"
Bad BAD BADDDD,
hm, but then again, maybe i won't have to worry .
After all, her theories were never correct
heh

where is she where is she, where is she
where is this beautiful girl
who is she who is she

2006-12-29T07:38:00.000-08:00

SNAP. SNAP. SNAP.

cam-whore on the first day of school,
makan at IKEA (not town)
apparently we don't have enough time
to settle our very-much-delayed-overtimed
ice cream date, jeesels.

things that cracked me up today
& made my day ;
pamela's thought that i'ld provide donation cards
for my fund, hahhah
then, cheryl thought mitch & i were having a RED WAR (:
takkkke that .

mila loves my (blabbering) i'm glad.
can't wait for tennis la. TENNIIS! (:
so far, i've got more dollars in my underwear fund already
can't be bothered to state the exact amount
cos i don't know what it is in the first place

just had lunch there though,
couldn't eat warm-blooded meat cos
today's a Friday.
which spells, D/A/M/N, damn

Mom ; why'd you need stamps for
Amanda ; to send Christmas cards of course
Mom ; you still send Christmas cards in this age
Amanda ; why not. it ain't Stone Age
Mom ; well you could always make use of the internet
Amanda ; Mom!, No Way. that's so not fun.
Ew, i cannot believe you said that

Ahaha, i left her feeling so mortified,
she felt compelled to get me stamps
it really isn't fun
like whoever does that must be Sick.
Ol' Plain sick, or plain old sick whatever

i suddenly feel so hyp-ed up
everyone around me suddenly seems so pretty
Oh, i think i'm falling in love with
The World.
Thank God for that

SET. SET. SET.

Ben says ___'s gentle
OhMyGod, that immediately earns ___
another golden star sticker from me
hahhahha , how heartfelt

Anyway,
Amanda's a happy papayayaya
Ya, cos i went shopping @ IKEA & i bought
more stuff for my room
including a bedside table
like finally, a bedside tableee
so, i'm going to revamp my dear room
and toilet, and invite you all over
for a partyyyy.
Hm, maybe sleepover !(:
Yes, Yes, yes ?! whatsayyou.
okay, that is after i've done it

Now, i need funds la
i've set up an Amanda's Calvin Klein underwear fund
so please donate generously
so far, there's $11.70 in it
how damn miserable! ):

she has the hots for you
she's creaming all over herself

CAT'S TAIL ;

2006-12-28T22:42:00.000-08:00

Dear Santa,
I don't like you anymore.
You made my Christmas so lousy.
How can like that

Amanda

i'm hacking away like some old donkey
it's so damn irritating, don't cough also cannot ):
two & a half days to the New Year
and i'm kind of worried
look at all the seniors, they'll all be going to different
schools, meet new people, new environment
Soon it'll be us next.
Seperated, some here, others there, a few out of the
country , how entirely depressing

it is pretty pretty scary
what if i don't do well enough
and end up in some far away school
where you don't know anyone ,
then you spend your next two/three years
in misery, travelling to & fro
i don't even wish to think about that
hopefully they'll banish that three-month based
on your Prelim results thing
OhMyGod, it's so awful
I hate Seperation.

Thus i have to say that our future
is in no uncertain terms,
Uncertain

goddammit , save me a cookie

Bought BrahBlahBras;
Hello everyone, first day of school
is lunch-out at town.
sorry i can't go for the Thai house one ):
perhaps some other day, hahahha
i miss all that tomyam soup !so nice
Hell Yes, shopping on the first day of school
agh, my throat's acting up again

GLOOM'S BROOM ;

2006-12-28T05:50:00.000-08:00

TAKE THIS ;

so everyone's saying
"We have to get to school early on Wednesday,
to book the best seats in the house"
And i'm like,
"Yes, Yes, Yes!"
we all want to sit at the back again (:
hHahaha, and shoot dirty faces at teachers
Anyway, i got my mom to buy me a fan
i can plug into one of those empty switches
so we don't have to fight over who gets
the fan where & there anymore

no worries, we'll all beat Mr. Lee flat
he'll become shorter than he already is
and his head will grow bigger
due to increased high-blood-pressure ha

so i'll probably be going in at about 640 on Wednesday
too early and your efforts will prove futile
class might not even open yet,
then you'll have to sit on the floor
EEEKY!, we're on the ground floor now,
with the might-be-mozzies, the dampness
but we get some greenery hahhaha
don't need to climb so many stairs already

Hey, i actually miss devotions without announcements,
chapel, and er, queueing up during recess
but not those long ones la
i don't miss mass-stretch though

SCRATCH THAT
suckers

I SAY PIF ;

2006-12-28T05:05:00.000-08:00

After ten hours of much deserved sleep,
i am well rested and my headache's gone
so is the fever
but i've still got a sore throat & it's killing me
cos i can't talkkkk
i lost my voice ! ):
well hopefully i'll get it back by next wednesday
i desperately need it
hell, i have so much to say
Okay, so i've been popping lozenges into my mouth
like peanuts, but even you don't do that to peanuts
now i sound like a grating machine, whatever that
looks like
i really have no relation whatsoever to kitchen stuff
i proclaim myself a total failure when it comes to such things,
it's a wonder i even aced Home Economics
(maybe i cheated) haha

take last afternoon for example
i felt compelled not to bite into a whole apple
just like that, so i went into the kitchen
and picked a knife, i do know what a knife is,
and proceeded to slice my apple
WHEN ,
i almost cut into my hand
Hah, but thankfully, there wasn't a scratch
or anything of that sort

But hey, do not be mistaken
i do know how to cook okay
depends on what la
but contrary to popular belief, not all females
have to know cookery
that's bull-shit

had jap food for dinner last night
i want to visit that mall again
it's so coooool !
one more time someone tells me i've to study,
i'll SMACK that person
stupid. stupid. Stewpig
i've to attend a wedding on New Year's day
shit, whatever happened to planning ?!

Aha, ha ,
i had some tiramisu and i'm high
underaged drinking is all the rage nowadays
but drunks are highly disgusting
i think it's perverse

it's Christmas day today,
and i'm SICK
what makes my day better ?
i'm saying that it's down-right miserable

for starters, i slept throughout most of
the Christmas day mass
when i was awake, i'll grumble
that the priest took so long to go through all
the usual rites
funny thing is, when i'm well & healthy,
i just stand up & dream
but when i'm not, i'm suddenly so conscious of time

i'm hurting all over, and to top it off
i've got this throbbing headache that refuses to go away
& this persistent fever, but i guess it ain't that hot no more
thus it led to my skipping of both breakfast & lunch
No appetite means No Ap-pee-tight la

of all the presents i received for Christmas
i counted clothes, accessories, candy
and someone even gave me a scented flower
like ?!?!, a flower !

all the party-poopers came, have left,
and are making their way back again
ridiculous idea
`Ouch, my head, Pain Pain Pain.
Beauty comes with pain, pain makes one stronger
somebody please take that crap away

Many sombodies have been saying that Mr. Lee's
going to be 4/three's form teacher for the New Year
Eeekkky, that shorty is going to take it upon himself to
be a non-delicious macho nacho ):
now we've to be more sneaky when feeding ourselves
& OhMyGod, if he takes us for Social Studies
it'll be a polka-dotted living nightmare

i say it's molten lava
we're hitting it off alright

I saw this drop-dead gorgeous bag
with the right shape at Suntec City Mall
and i am so going to snatch
it, provided it's still there
i hope it is !
Hahahha, i wanntttt it.
Damn Damn damn, &&&& i've got my planner already
what about my Braun Buffel wallet ?!
i hope someone chips that in as my Christmas present (:

why can't i get Calvin Klein underwear
just because it costs ninety dollars
doesn't mean you shan't wear expensive stuff
where no one will never see it
but they're really pretty &&&& colourful ;
i peeked into my dad's shopping bags and he bought
some for himself !
So selfish, don't want to buy for me ):

Am i under pressure ?!
i didn't think so.
OhNo, i hope i'm not huh

hyundin/hyoon'din
bitch

late night talks with Rachel are killing me
i'm not interested in whatever goes on between her
and some unrealistic character
it's eating into my sleep !
Aaah

i ran through 6 movies
over a period of two days
i won't exactly call that a movie marathon
but ohwells, who cares.
let's see,
Brother's Grimm, Brer Rabbit, Sin City, Lost in Translation,
The Aviator, and House of flying daggers
Sin City is ultra sleazy
and it's so full of exaggerated drama, instead of
making one feel disgusted, it humoured me

last afternoon's badminton session backed the fact
that i am totally un-fit
due to an extreme extreme lack of exercise, both delayed
and lazy ):
must exerciseeeee !
heh i forgot how to do that killer-shot

And No, none of the houses i visited impressed me
therefore i wish you all better luck today ,
or was it yesterday? i can't remember

since it's monsoon season now
it's entirely appropriate to talk about this ;
i want good raincoats here in Singapore
one that i can wear out very normally
haha, it's always raining here,
if not today, it's tomorrow, or the day after et cetra
so why not invest in a good fashionable one

stupid Singtel keeps playing unbelievably horrid music
over the telephone and putting me on some damn hold,
which always results in me hanging up
if it's hold, they should have the good grace to
put up better music La
ugh , how crazy

I know Christmas day plans for me are kind of confusing
so i'll try explaining it slowly
i'll head to church in the morning, uhm
830 i think, then i'll go home
and leave Singapore and possibly be back
past midnight
so no parties for me on the morrow ):
the SANTA CLAUS in church is so adorablllle
i feel like stealing it leh, who wants to be my accomplice ?

Amanda ; OhMyGod, LOOOOK! that's so cute
Some Lady ; (looks over)
Amanda ; i feel like stealing the damn thing
Some Lady ; frowns disapprovingly

hahaHaha, nah
i won't go for confession

I want a grand piano, someone please get me one
the K. Kawai one okay
the music comes out so much richer
bye bye ugly pianos, get outtt
my Fed-ex got stuck some where in spppace ):

he's sweet as an angel
it save me from the greedy clutches of death

I was out of the country on Thursday,
not like i wanted to be out or something
but i had to go
but i did managed to catch 45 minutes
of Prison Break, hahaha whilst trying to cheat
my lil cousin
i got him to believe that we were playing hide & seek
then i dumped myself in front of the tele
anyway, lil Danny's so naughty
he keeps wanting to fight me all thanks to my
over-encouraging brother , ugh
i stuffed myself with great food & my mom's
three uh, side dishes were gone under minutes

CHRISTMAS IS DAY AFTER TOMORROOOW ,
i cannot stand this suspense of
"No, you can only open your presents on Christmas day"
what is with that
can't we break tradition/believe once in a while

i went carolling last night
and i want to do it again next year
but i was kind of tired, and irritated
Hahhaha, and kim kept doing her faces
and teeth-grinding and self talking when she
heard those shrill eeekkkky voices penetrating
the air, oh whatever
so i've always enjoyed Christmas carols
last night wasn't an exception
but after all that singing i had a stomach ache
Ahaha, Kim's cracks me up

Amanda ; this must be the holiest day of my entire life
Kim ; Why
Amanda ; cos we prayed so damn much
Kim ; that's not counted, you weren't paying attention

she always breaks my hearttttt ):
ha ha , but we did pray a lot
a lot a lottttt

Merry Christmas to everyone in advance
cos i probably won't be saying this till
who knows when (:

i'll spot you even if there's a dead crowd

THE LADIES GO ;

When we first met, I liked you lots

I felt a spark, I had the hots

We went on dates

we'd dine we'd dance

We had our laughs,

we had romance !

With every moment, came a thrill!

My young heart raced ...

it's racing still

i forgot already

no more tuition for the rest of this weeeek
i did everything in one day !
so i'm a free bird for you to catch now.
hahaha, anyway,
i've to go carolling this friday
i think it's kinda fun la
reminds me of "thanksgiving service" on the un-official
last day of school
hahaha, if my memory proves right
i got a huge shock cos i didn't realise that
someone was in the vicinity

it's been raining bombs these few days
huge fat uncaring droplets that go
piak piak piiiiakkkkk
i think they're really rude
they should at least forewarn us
and ask for permission to hit us
take for example, this afternoon
when i had to leave house to get to church
for carolling practice
& i don't have the luxury of staying in Clementi
or whereever really near church
but lucky me, i hitched a ride (:
I hope they renovate it so it looks really pretty

Anyway, i've completed 8-out of-10 concerning
the Christmas Cards hahhaha
i can't wait to send them all out
i've got paint-stained hands & i feel like
some factory worker working on mass products
Gosh, but hahaha, it is sincere
so all of you'd better appreciate it !

i haven't fought with my youngest brother for so damn
long, i have almost forgotten how it used to feel like
but damn, we did fight again yesterday
over some door thing
yes , it does sound stupid
but whatthehell, he threw my door hang thing
down the same flight of stairs
which has a spoilt landing light
i have to get someone to do something about that light

i get to play badminton this Saturdayyyyy
Haha, AWESOME !
i'm getting a lil rusty, having not played for ages
but i think tennis's darrien is cuter than badminton's
kevin, so don't argue over that with me
PERIOD/

i dread the upcoming thursday ,
i have absolutely no wish to sit still
for two hours stuck in a bloody stubborn traffic jam

oh santa, won't you give me a kiss too

did shopping for all the schooling stuff
but couldn't find any attractive planner as yet
had dinner at Min Jiang restuarant located at
Rochester Road and the food is quite delicious
oh, but the service, that kind of service
ha , it sent me to heaven and back again (:
it was so damn good , even the valet is like Wow
after that 200 dollar meal , i'm full
that's it , i've put on all that weight that i lost at
the gym on friday

Oh , i took my height & weight
and Guess What.
I now stand at 174.5 cm tall (with my shoes on)
kim was lighting-quick at pointing that out
my spirits were soaring then she shot it back down

Amanda : ehhh, i wanna take my height
Kim : okay, i'll help you. Stand straight ahhhh
Amanda : What's it, Quiiickkkk.
Kim : 174.5 cm
Amanda : OhMyGod , are you serious ?
YES! YES! YEEEESSss sSS,
Kim : with your shoes on leh
Amanda : (gives that you just had to do it look)

and she kept on laughing & laughing & howling
just to irk me, Gosh.
Anyway, i saw on the back of the valet's card
that they offer drive-home services
cooool i was thinking, maybe if i feel lazy
after lessons have ended or i'm stuck somewhere
in town or Sunny Singapore , i'll call them
and get them to drive me home , hahhahha
what a pity my personal chauffeur is on vacation right now
i don't recall giving her work-off so she could
go sun-bathing in Seattle
or if it's snowing there, she has already promised to
freeze herself so she can be shipped back
and i'll display her in my room !

how lovely to have a personal limo and someone
to ferry you around

we've got Geog holiday homework
on the stupid edulearn website !
and it's a project too,
Cheryl just told me our chem worksheet
is a piece of paper
Greattt, i dumped it with the pile of
whatever-nots paper from last term of school
somewhere, and now, how hard is it to find
a piece of paper which looks like what i don't know

why have some website to put homework up
when students don't even know there's homework
to look up?

i'll wrap my hands around your neck
and squeeze the breath out of your
frumpy old useless self

I skipped tennis on Sunday and ended up hiding
at the Grand House instead, spending my time
actually appreciating the surroundings
eg. Golfers talking in broken dialects
and thought about some things that i did this year
when something struck me

so instead of searching high & low for the perfect
Christmas card design, i have decided to make them all
by myself.
I did regret making that decision a little though
because i've got to make 40 cards
so i kinda skipped crayon drawings on the background
although i did it for the first few cards
thus i wish to apologise if you find it rather plain
i gave up cos it was just too tedious
i've got fourteen left excluding the painting and sticking

had dinner at The Vil'lage last night
was pretty obvious that that restuarant was
an almost exact replica of Marche
I still prefer Marche though
spent the three days of this week
snacking on France & Belgium chocolates my
parents bought
they're really great, plus they've got some champagne in them
wonder i if i can get drunk
Ha, probably have to eat three boxes

i am still unsatisfied after all the shopping for
Christmas/New year clothes
i guess i'll never be sated
damn, it's as if i'm obsessed or something
Gosh, and my parents actually consented to buying
my little-i'm-all-grown-up youngest brother
a 99 dollar chess set
& they'll only increast my allowance based on my results

I suddenly feel so vulgar

something to do with going round in circles

FORBES ;

2006-12-08T17:08:00.000-08:00

Aha ,
maybe i should change the layout
to something that coincides with Christmas
after all , it's such a lovely season

I have so many things to do ! ):
& i've got to sit through an hour of theory lesson
when it's supposed to be a half-hour
that is D-A-M-N going to kill me

Since everyone's asking ,
i shall clarify it here
i am going somewhere , but i don't know when
i figure it's most probably next week
cos i'll be in Singapore on Christmas morning
but the rest of the day , uh-uh

i got rejected on Wednesday
cos i woke my not-so-little fly in a bucket of horsedung
and it rejected me !
it does have guts , i wanted to look it up
in its messy hidey/hole

who says gender discrimination doesn't exist?
in fact , it's still here , right before us
watching the Asian Games is a great example
you either have men against men ,
women against women , even the mixed doubles
would be woman & man against woman & man
if that isn't gender discrimination ..
females are just like males , why the need for such a
huge differentiation ?!

Another thing , WHY IS IT THAT MALLS HERE
OPEN AT 10 ?! , that's so laaaate ,
ahhah , give us more hours
i practically sat my butt out waiting for
the clock hand to tick to Ten
but i saw nice lingerie , like real Cool ones okay,
so i went around looking at What's hot & not
which was easy to see , ahahhha
I like soft ones , with lots of colour
and don't argue that it won't matter cos you're wearing
it on the inside so no one will see
you never know when it might peep out a lil
what the hell am i talking about

ohgreat, now Haley's telling me stories about
sajc & the kallang river
another history lesson
Ferdi is a Wierdi (: ,
ahhah , but he reminds me of Paul bayliss who
taught me geog in sec one and went the !Kung Bushmen

sorry Rayna i couldn't fly over on such notice
and even if i did , i'ld only spend a day there
which is kind of meaningless
but i would have gladly spent the day with you
at your posh-nosh high club to celebrate your fifteenth
birthday if i could ):
i'll make it up to you when school re-opens
& valerie !, keep your yoga promise okay ,
then we'll both be yoga/goers hahaha
and i'll get everyone together to hold a farewell party
for you before you leave us for UWC ):
i hope next year you get to sit in front of us yet again
(at the second row from the back)
where hopefully you can sleep all you want ,
& the teachers won't comment about your height , Ha !
all i want for christmas ,
is you

Tuesday's party at hweepeng's was a joy bomb
everyone just kept screaming like we haven't seen
each other for half a life,
we talked about everything from school to
tiger-printed umbrellas to school pairings like
"Eeekky, it doesn't mean A has to end with Z"
then we took some time to barbeque the foodstuff
not because there wasn't fire,
but because the fire was to huge,
instead of cooking the food, we got burnt ones
hahahha, it was real fun (:
& haley never fails to remind me that i named
hweepeng "Mary"
steph & i spent minutes chasing the cute dog around
the house, it was too friendly-cum-active

Oh bytheway, Roy is such a bad liar
what's that about the snakes & heads ?!
and apparently ugly fishes with grotesquely huge scales
cost a thousand bucks plus

now i know, you're going to ask,
"where have you been these few days"
i was in the city shopping (With Mom in tow)
and i managed to grab a few clothings/dresses !
it's always a nice thing when you don't have
to worry about fishing money out of your wallet

my piano exam ? sucked big time
i totally screwed up the d fine part
for the second piece, but the rest was fine
i thinkkkkk ..
cos the lady kept calling me dear
like "thank you dear" or "bye now dear" etc
now you can just imagine

liar liar pants on fire

exactly 2 weeks ago, i paid a visit
to my (ex) badminton coaches cos i had to fetch
my lil brother anyways
which then led to them comparing their heights against mine
again and talking to me about soccer and all the tactics
that was really cute of them hahaha
but the soccer part?! like uhhh, i feigned interest here & there
like uh huh, then proceeds to nodding my head
maybe a little too vigorously
i kinda miss badminton now,
the classes and everyone there ):
okay, moving on, i feel so lousily disappointed in myself today
that's because i missed so many shots or other that
my strokes went horribly off track
and the balls didn't go across perfectly like how i'ld have
wanted it too
oh great, so i'm a perfectionist
but i won't say being anything but that makes things worse

i miss everything about school
i'm about to list almost everything there is
actually, it isn't even near to half of everything
because there's just too many
see, school's so completely filled to the brim
it doesn't make you any bored

there's mitch nagging me to buy her
"two fish fillets & one chicken nugget"
she thinks i'm some free-of-charge-delivery person
but now it's me who constantly drags her down
then cheryl's morning trips down for her
daily chicken wing , or rayna's "help me with this, i can't understand it"
plea, and the let's-plan-where-to-go-after-school today
also, there would be the unique way in which i dispose of
my litter, merely flicking it off the table
without even looking where it lands
(we're just too lazy to walk to the bin)
oh plus our fan/fights, and sit on the floor
gossip sessions, no wait, talking sessions
or the (damn i'm trying to think of a plausible excuse) look
when it's hand it your homework time
we can't forget those i need to go to the toilet,
very very urgent la demands
and the snoozing off in eng/chinese/chem/math/history/geog/ss
classes, or the peeping looks we do trying to see
what sock Ms. Ho's wearing that day
or the playtimes we have in the lab experimenting
by messing up the supposed experiments or
mixing all the chemicals to get a nice brillant colour ;

then there's the i wanna prawn class to
hide in the toilet although it stinks
or the "aiyyyahhh, azizah's too short, she can't see us eat"
ignorant remarks we make
AHHhhh, school should start Right Now.

the typical domineering egoistic male
is indeed an interesting species

it's like OhMyGod, and i love their hats
they're even better than hollywood standard

must be due to all that good genes huh

Saint Andrews is way too far
i'll spend approximately two hours travelling there
and another two back
just thinking about that makes me sick

sorry but you've got to bear with me
cos i'm trying to get rid of the song
and put up something else instead
however, i've got no free time
so i guess you've to be patient

I am going to catch Casino Royale a second time
tomorrow, it's kind of like a gala event
so i've got to go
which is really eeegggh since i don't really pay
much attention to the movie after the first time
first times are always important ;
much like how i'm not a staunch believer of the
starve in order to lose weight idea
that isn't classified under dieting anymore
it's a seperate thing altogether
& it's baddddd for everyone

think about it, you don't really want to lose all that
extra-unnecessary fat but have excess (lots of excess)
skin hanging from everywhere
so it's like every step you take
it wobbles from left to right
worse than a swinging pendulum
okay, criticism is an absolute No-no

i think Europe's really pretty
especially Paris during the winter season
i saw some authentic photographs
from conversing in chinese to talking about holidaying
overseas which eventually got down to looking at
the photographs
i must saw, i was certainly enthralled by the
prospect that i'll go visit someday
OhMyGod, you just have to see it
it's lovely, no wait, lovely isn't doing it justice

It's just so awful, i've got a one cm wide blister
at the back of my foot
and it hurts when i rest it on something
caught casino royale with kim on monday
this was very much different from the rest of the Bond films
it had you glued to the screen, and thinking
this Bond too, used his brains for his purpose
before actually doing something
to put it simply, he's smart
another point, What was i thinking?
i actually thought James Bond might get tied down here,
seems like the spy never lets his emotions control him

yesterday, my math tutor asked me if you just had a living brain
would that still be considered as a human
(with all the nerves attached etc)
i said No, because it wouldn't have feelings anymore
how can some "thing" without feelings & emotions be humane at all
that's totally out of the question
it just won't make any sense
if that is indeed considered humane,
then all of humanity would be lost wouldn't it?

i get a little uneasy whenever someone take for example
a teacher devotes much of her time to teaching me something
maybe because an examination is coming up
it's like they expect you to do something you know,
as if you owe then for devoting their time
okay, so maybe it is a little tricky to put this across
what i am trying to say is that i do appreciate their efforts
it's just i .. agh, you get what i mean

i miss school,
i miss everything about school,
i miss all my friends ):

READ IT :

The Cab Ride

In the years as a cab driver I have seen a good portion of the various kinds of people that exist in our world. passengers climbed in, sat behind me in total anonymity, and told me about their lives. People whose lives amazed me, ennobled me, made me laugh and weep. But none touched me more than a woman i picked up a few years ago, on one of the night shift run as a cab driver i encountered.

I was responding to a call from a small old run down four storey building situated in a quiet part of town. I assumed I was being sent to pick up some party animals, or someone who had just had a fight with a lover, or a worker heading to an early shift at some factory for the industrial part of town.

When I arrived at 2:30a.m., the building was dark except for a single light in a ground window floor. Under such circumstances, many drivers just honk once or twice, wait a minute, and then drive away. But I had seen too many impoverished people who depended on taxis as their only means of transportation. Unless a situation signals of danger, I always rushed to the cab and would drive off.

This passenger might be someone who needes my assistance, I reasoned to myself. So I walked to the door and knocked. "Just a minute," answered a frail, elderly voice. I could hear something being dragged across the floor. After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her 80s stood before me. She was wearing a print dress and a pillbox hat with a veil pinned on it, like somebody out of a 1940s movie. By her side was a small nylon suitcase. The apartment looked as if no on had lived in it for years. All the furniture was covered with sheets. There were no clocks on the walls. In the corner was a cardboard box filled with photos and glassware. "Would you carry my bag out to the car?" she said. I took the suitcase to the cab, and then returned to assist the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the curb. She kept thanking me for my kindness. "It's nothing," I told her. "I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother treated."

"Oh, you're such a good boy," she said. When we got in the cab, she gave me an address, and then asked, "Can you drive me through downtown?" "It's not the shortest way, " I answered quickly. "Oh, I don't mind, " she said. "I'm in no hurry. I'm on my way to a hospice." I looked in the rearview mirror. her eyes were glistening. "I don't have any family left," she continued. "The doctor says I don't have very long to live."

I quietly reacher over and shut off the meter. "What route would you like met ot ake?" I asked. For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked as an elevator operator. We drove over the bridge where she said she met her husband for the first time and where he proposed to her. We drove through the neighbourhood where she and her husband had lived when they were newlyweds. She had me pull up in front of a furniture warehouse that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl. Sometimes she'd ask me to slow down in front of a particular building or corner and would sit staring at darkness, saying nothing.

At the first hint of the sun creasing the horizon, she suddenly said, "I'm tired. Let's go now." We drove in silence to the address she had given me. It was a low building like a small covalescent home, with a driveway that passed under a portico. Two orderlies came out to the cab as soon as we pulled up. They must have been expecting her. I opened the trunk and took the small suitcase to the door. The woman was already seated in a wheelchair. "How much do I owe you?" she asked, reaching into her purse.

"Nothing," I said. "You have to make a living," she answered. "There are other passengers," I responded.

Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto me tightly. "You gave an old woman a little moment of joy," she said. "Thank you." I squeezed her hand, and then walked into the dim morning light. Behind me, a door shut. It was the sound of the closing of a life.

I didn't pick up any more passengers that shift. I drove aimlessly, lost in thought. For the rest of that day, I could hardly talk. What if that woman had gotten an angry driver, or one who was impatient to end his shift? What if I had refused to take the run, or had honked once, then driven away? On a quick review, I don't think that i have done anything more important in my life.

We're conditioned to think that our lives revolve around great moments. But great oments often catch us unaware beautifully wrapped in what others may consider a small one. Sometimes our prejudices become the obstacles that waste the wonderful opportunities that would enrich our lives. Great moments happen all the time. We will miss it if we look for great ones to happen rather than to see the greatness in them. Most of all the ones that involve people are the ones that will enrich us the most.

People may not remember exactly what you did, or what you said, but they will always remember how you made them feel.

That said, michelle makes mistakes like
nobody's business
point taken, she still makes them
which makes her one of the few
clowns around town
she thinks i like some twins
because she overhead rayna & i talking
about something something something
okay, to give her credit, she didn't overhear
or anything of that sort
it just happened that she sits next to us
so she hears whatever we say

pffft/ how do you do that? big fat biggy problem
is it, (cheryl/nicole/tessa) cheryl, or soh?
snow white la
(rayna) cherry, or strawberry?
i only like real cherries, not those fakes you find on
brithday cakes & ice creams and i like sweet strawberries
(mine) X or Y?
Z is for Zotia, and that's good enough for me (:

he's so charming it melts me so

you're after the birds & the bees
- hosanna

she did a double entendre i'm telling you
traditional chinese weddings include
the tea-ceremony
among many other things
i don't think i want that for mine though
oh, i've already got it all planned out
one can have dreams you know
i've got them for my future wedding, should i ever
have one that is, my lifestyle, and my future house
let's see, everyone's bent on holding
their wedding dinner at posh hotels
with 7/8/9-course meals, not forgetting
the very fake layered cake

i'ld want mine on a luxury cruise
so it's like guests would be invited
to board the cruise at the start of the day,
do whatever they want.
come evening time, they'll head down to the
grand ballroom where the wedding ceremony
will be held
i want ballroom dancing, like those during
the Victorian times
they have dancing rules
and guests get to stay on the cruise for 3 days

hahahha, one has to be different sometimes
no point following the crowd at every
bend and corner
you never know when you might end up
in some dark alley

sorry, i'm straying
last evening's wedding celebration was
rather intriguing i must say
everyone kept commenting on my height
and how i have to stop growing
or it's gonna be kinda difficult for me to find
a boyfriend, or i've to look towards the angmohs
what not, likeyeahright
i managed to engage in some girl/talk,
had countless of laughs with my relatives
(which i really miss since they do it so well),
and contributed ideas
like we could have another trip overseas together

okkkay, i know
you're desperate to know what lavish dishes i had
i shan't keep you in suspense any longer

; whole barbecued suckling pig

; braised shark's fin with crabmeat

; braised baby abalone with home-made beancurd

; steamed fresh garoupa with superior

soya sauce garnished with coriander leaves

; sauteed prawns in spicy sauce served

with deep-fried buns

; roasted crispy chiken marinated in

red bean curd paste

; braised lingzhi mushrooms topped with

conpoy and chinese spinach

; fried rice with crabmeat and prawns

; double-boiled fresh lily bbuds

with lotus seeds and red dates

the dessert & chocolate were such let/downs

i was expecting ben & jerry's ice cream

and godiva respectively

nevertheless, it was a great time off for me

i realise i've got two more to attend

in january, not Mr. See's one though

i'm giving that a miss

however, during the wedding dinner

the groom (my cousin) did say something

that struck a chord in me

"for those who have found love, cherish it

and for those who have yet to find it, you'll understand more"

cliche?

nah, i don't think so

all of our tears will be lost in the rain

CONTRADICTORY ;

2006-11-24T06:56:00.000-08:00

this is called the rythm of service
- Mr. Oldie Ong

i'm back from my mini-shopping trip
i cannot believe oxy actually spent $10
on beef for her dog
and she regretted it after paying
it's not like the dog will know how to appreciate
it or anything of that sort

"it's like buying gourmet food for my dog" she said
Mr. Monk is so addictive,
and although he has this disorder, he's smart
now everyone wants that disorder
so they can ace their tests

Ms. Choo is rude, that's final
there seems to be so few words to describe her
precisely because she is beyond that already
if i get her for my form teacher again next year
i swear, i am going to stage a rebellion
ha ha ha, with everyone else of course
she makes us all sick to the bone
let's backtrack to wednesday afternoon ;

Tessa & I spot teachers heading down to the canteen
for their buffet lunch (which didn't look that great)
so we guessed Ms. Choo might be there
we played peek-a-boo and found her sitting with Mr. Ang
that's worse than being unsociable, that's a flat zero
we walked over to their table with this huge
idiotic grin on our faces, we tried to hide it but failed

Us: Hello Ms. Choo (false enthusiasm)
Ms. Choo: looks up from a plate of ? (i only saw the veg)
Us: we're here to collect our report book
Ms. Choo: do you have what you owe me?
Us: uh, yes
Ms. Choo: come back in 5-10 minutes

we then went over to buy my books
15 minutes later ,
Us: Ms. CHOOOO! 10 minutes up alreadyyyyy
Ms. Choo: (looks up from bowl of red disgusting dessert)
wait la, let me finish my dessert
Us: fine
& all this while Mr. Ang just kept quiet, ahahha
it was really hilarious
he knows usssss, he's pretending not too
hell, even tessa's in his history class

anyway, tomorrow i'm going to wish i was at home
this whole week, i've been stuffing myself non-stop
this needs to stop
i am certainly not paranoid,
you can never be sure when you're going to hit-the-roof
HELP!, i feel so heavy & bloated ):
it's so nerve-wrecking, OhGosh
i might have to do that meditating thing val does
how does she do it again?
my mom wants me to sign up for yoga lessons
what
a
joke
okay maybe, i'm not flexible as it is

& guess what
i've thought about the perfect
Christmas present i can get for everyone
haha now i need to go search for nice ones
or perhaps, if i feel up to it and time is in my favour
i'll hand make it
which means a trip to the art shop

i found this :

Somewhere Out There

Somewhere out there

beneath the pale moon light,

someone's thinking of me and loving me tonight

Somewhere out there

someone's saying a prayer that we'll find one another

in that big somewhere out there.

And even though I know how very far apart we are,

it helps to think we might be wishing

on the same bright star.

And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome

lullaby, it helps to think we're sleeping underneath

the same big sky.

Somwhere out there if love can see us through,

then we'll be together somewhere out there

where dreams come true

ain't it sweet?

just imagine a lonely little mouse singing that

AWWww, how touching

skimming through my previous entries

i realise that i made spelling mistakes,

grammatical errors and maybe left out

some punctuations here & there

for that, i'll apologise

usually when i read writings written by others

if it indeed has some mistakes,

i'll automatically correct it.

habit from long ago i guess,

i want to attend mass tomorrow instead

of on Sunday, whyyyyy.

i don't particularly take to waking up early on

Sunday mornings especially after spending the

previous night outttt

i can't stop falling in love with you

Mr.MONK ;

2006-11-24T02:02:00.000-08:00

MONK IS SO DAMN GOOD,
& now i'm off to get an equally good bra
for tomorrow's wedding
i've to hit the gym
the stupid meter is reading off like crazy
keeps on heading east
time to hurry

grab as we walk
- yiwei

Monday was funny
i think i saw so many girls from Saint Margs
it kinda looked like a mini school fair
i am so fat and sqad bo5tghej
michelle's so fat and sqad bo5tghej
she's lkhkjhlakjbg

so we walked to Paragon to look for the dress
and after 2 hours or so, much trying on
and debate, i decided to purchase
this dress with a ultra-long sash going round your neck
and all the way down your back
cos it's unique and alllll/
oh, i have to thank yiwei & grace
for your dedication and time
they were acting wardrobe managers for that day
Gosh, it was so difficult to decide on the right one
this was either too lose,
or they didn't have the right size
that was either too kinky at the back,
or the design was way off
et cetera ;i know i'm down-right fussy
you don't have to emphasize that enough
i'll promise a drawing of the dress, as best as i can
haahhha, i rarely keep my promises
so don't get your hopes too high up
but i guess i'll have to stick to this one won't i?

some people are as bland as a vegetable dish
without sauce or a salad without its usual dressing
that just popped up, in front of me

went back to school today,
finally received my report book after thhhhhat long
Ms.Choo is without a doubt, a real pain in the ass
i hope she "accidentally" chances upon this
"she gave us her grumpy face, with her rolling eyeballs
they looked as if they were about to roll out of her head
or, .. does she even have a head?" - mitch
she could do with a punch to the centre of her head

i realise i'm only flying off to God-knows-where
after the 7th of December
cos that's when my piano exam is scheduled
and my mom wants me to practice before that
so no holiday for me, yet

01 ; Clarissa's
07 ; Practical Examination
09 ; StMarg's band concert
10 ; Piano concert
11 ; Tennis date
12 ; Calvin's
16 ; Christmas service

let's get out of here
i wanna go to cold storage
& get sushies

Caution: Red-hot lover

CAR WASH ;

she makes it her business to know everyone's affairs
- amanda to mila, mila to amanda

L is for the way you look, at me
O is for the only one i see
V is very very extraodinary
E is even more than anyone that you can love

somebody please tell me what's the name of the cartoon show
that starrs this lonely mouse who sings
"somewhere out there.."
because i've got to remember that lonely feeling
& learn how to express it
oh, but i do know how loneliness feels like

i love my game today
it was so damn enjoyable
in fact, it was the best i've had so far
i had one-to-one coaching so i got to hit
lots of balls, and i managed to perfect my strokes
so that everytime a ball comes hurling towards me
i smack it across perfectly
& gosh, i felt so high
it had to be esctasy
you have to experience the exact feeling
then only would you understand how i felt
it was like turn, loop, contact,
"praaaakkk", ball goes across the court
and the coach couldn't catch some!

i'm feeling so happy today
everything was so great
(except the ... )
Mila intends to join tennis by December (:
lovelllly, now we can sneak up on Rachel
i saw her today, she looked so happy to see me
tells us how much we all miss school huh

i was out the whole day i think
from mass in the morning
followed by shopping @ Paragon & Robinsons
where i saw some really beautiful dresses
i want an expandable wardrobe
then headed down to IKEA for lunch
OhMyGodxzx, the restuarant there is hotdamn nice
& the food there tasted just as delicious too
plus i like the setting
let's go there one day for lunch-outs okkk
i think there's a straight bus service from school
hahhaha, this is planning for the future
those damn meatballs turn me on high-time

and i had to rush back to church for some youth thing
which turned out to be really unexpected
cos it wasn't even fun
i was trying to find things to keep myself occupied
okay, it wasn't as fun as those ..
but maybe i've got high expectations
i'm invited for christmas services (:
do we get to sing the songs we sang during lessons
cos we were so hotdamn bored?

i think i'm obsessed with the sound of smacking tennis
balls across the court
what other explanation is there?
aggghhHHhh

i am so disappointed to know
i had actually thought it true
what a fool i must be

TRIP IT ;

2006-11-18T04:23:00.000-08:00

you can't control relationships
- my pleasant chinese tutor

I swear, something really fishy is going on in school
they (the staff/admin) are becoming really edgy
and irritating, it's beginning to be such a headache
i couldn't receive my report book on friday because
Ms. ChooYeowPeng was stuck in a meeting
and she refused to get out for a few minutes
she, is a really lousy newbie
fancy being scared of that huge melon who is
so very extremely sardonic
this is tempting me to get into trouble
i love a little challenge sometimes especially when
i'm nearly suffocating here because of this thing called boredom
therefore, friday's trip to school was wasted

but nevertheless, i had a dime
japanese food reminds me of evil
it's so small, yet makes you feel so full and sated
we walked into this bookshop and browsed through
gossip magazines, decided to switch course
and went under the self-improvement section
keep on guessing what got us so tickled and
well, i was glued to a few particular pages of the book
inggrid didn't dare look hahaha
i never knew hosanna was so perverted (:

the make-up store wasn't any better
the powder kept coming loooose
and i got my hands full of some glittery stuff
which i care not to find out what
if i recall, we sprayed each other with perfume
uh, hosanna turned out the worst
how many bees did you attract hosanna?
how many heads did you turn?

Life can be confusing and full of complexity at times
which always leaves us to be rather intrigued yet
baffled at the same time
more often than not, we push the plate to others
completely insensitive to the feelings and issues
the other party is facing
one can argue that that is human nature
and it's not uncommon to see such things
but then again, it isn't always true is it?
maybe it is because we refuse to accept our wrongdoings
arrogance is good, not too much though

i, on the other hand, am feeling pleased with myself today
oh, i didn't accomplish anything but i righted certain events
December seems to be the month-of-the-concerts
so should i participate in the upcoming piano recital concert?
you tell me

Next week i have to do something really important
but first i've got to search for someone who is
to accompany me out
i've got to buy a nice, formal dress for my cousin's
wedding dinner this saturday
i hope the food's good (:
according to amanda's daddy, no kinky dresses
hell, if i buy a new dress
i'll have to convince my dad to get me matching/new shoes
and no more of that you-have-too-many-pairs lecture
damn, i would very much like to design my own

should rayna become a fashion-designer, she has promised
her first & nicest dress to me
and michelle has already signed on my stuff
just in case she becomes famous one day
which isn't really the case, cos she's more
likely to become infamous

remember my idea for our end-year Prom?
a masquerade ball ;
i just cross my fingers the exco don't screw this up

sometimes i find myself missing the old me
the old times, the old things
than i think about certain things now
and i shake my head and say,
but if it was then, i won't have these things
keep your friends close, & your enemies even closer
what a frustrating thing to do
OhGosh, inggrid had 76 for headstart's a-math test
ohright, so what?
hosanna got 92
I WANT MINE BACK RIGHT NOW!
i'm going to barge into Ms. HoWaiYu's house
gah, i don't even know where she stays

it's either this or that

SEASON TO BE JOYFUL ;

2006-11-15T05:22:00.000-08:00

Christmas is barely round the corner
for one thing, i can hardly wait
which means i've got to get through all the other
stuff first before it comes around
Christmas tree's up, and we're going shopping soon
it is interesting how everytime my dad brings us
out for the seasonal christmas shopping
it always results in me buying my stuff
which makes the guys really hard up on going shopping

I have never really liked those stiff imposing
Christmas trees where it's either over-decorated
or way too bare
and the decorations are all wrong
it's hard to find a good one now

i've got tons of homework waiting to be done
i haven't touched a textbook in weeks
i can't skip homework anymore cos the subjects are
still the same next year
oh, have you all seen the stupid english quiz
set by that geek of an idiot?
by the sixth question, i couldn't be bothered anymore
i don't think i'll ever attempt it a second time

So i've been thinking really hard
what should i get as appropriate christmas presents
for everyone?
i wish i knew, i haven't yet come up with an answer

why can't it snow here?
maybe climatic changes would be so drastic
snow might someday fall in Singapore
hahaha fat hopes
but it wouldn't hurt to hope would it?
not like it hurts to think too much
i wish my dad would bring us to Europe
he doesn't want to say a thing

LIKE A ROSE ;

2006-11-15T04:40:00.000-08:00

why can't they just stick to one thing?
- incredulous kim

It must have been love
but it's over now

Lay a whisper on my pillow
leave the winter on the ground
i wake up lonely
is there a silence
in the bedroom and all around

Touch me now
i close my eyes
and dream away

It must have been love
but it's over now
it must have been good
but i lost it somehow
it must have been love
but it's over now
from the moment we touched
to the time that ran out

Make believing we're together
that i'm sheltered by your heart
but in and outside i turn to water

Like a teardrop
in your palm

And it's hard
winter's day

I dream away

i think choruses are the most boring part
as i sat in front of the television watching princess hours
last evening, i can imagine why they must like that show pretty much
i pictured inggrid sitting on her couch/sofa and squealing
at that particular part of the episode
and having that dreamy look on her face
sometimes watching dramas with your friends just crack you up
the right way, you laugh at their foolishness yet you
know that it's very real and happening
oh that just reminds me of cracking an egg the right way
my brother took so long to get it

i couldn't believe mila could tell that i wasn't me
okay, now i can
i just typed three lines and she could tell
spot on what it was
it's feels good to know that people can actually discern
whether or not you're upside down or hanging on a tree branch
whatthehell am i talking about

so maybe i have a horrible reputation
all that being late for meetings and what not
i guess i'll try harder the next time
hot chocolate and snuggling underneath my blanket
doesn't seem to help
but i fell asleep anyway

and now i finally have books to keep me busy
i won't have to walk around the house
like some trapped pigeon trying to find the right
spot to defecate upon
birdshit freaks everyone outtt
i had an eventful day today
( i think i enjoyed myself)
tomorrow will be lesson packed
& the days that follow?
i think it's going to be interesting

staring down at people can be pretty fun
especially if you know that you're much uh,
whatever ;
it's just fun & perkkky
i'm sorry, i just love stretching my words
and you narrow your eyes at them
give your "i'm pissed with the entire world which means you"
look and it gets to them a helluva lot
i have absolutely no idea why some people just find
it such a chore to open their mouths and utter a few simple words
forget about the basic courtesy thing
it has nothing to do with that

let's say for example,
you're standing between bookshelves in a book shop
and person X wants to pass through
why doesn't X say "excuse me" instead of standing there
staring at you as if you would know that he wants to be excused?!
humans are so, very, puzzling

if i could, i'll pause that section
and replay it countless times

TURN OVER ;

2006-11-13T05:17:00.000-08:00

it's alright, you can hit me
- coach at tennis practice

it isn't cold then why am i feeling so cold?
i am getting goosebumps too
personal individual coaching can be kind of enriching
and sorry i skipped the outing today
i was feeling lazy
ah, i have to make a trip down to the library
books are on the top of the list

let me flip open the bible
ok, just now after dinner i flipped it open
and i came across this somewhat interesting paragraph
(oh, in case you're wondering, it happened to be on the dining table)

Avoid getting into debt, except the debt of mutual love. If you love your fellow men you have carried out your obligations. All the commandments: You shall not commit adultery, you shall not kill, you shall not steal, you shall not covet, and so on are summed up in this single command: You must love your neighbour as yourself. Love is the one thing that cannot hurt your neighbour; that is why it is the answer to every one of the commandments

that's for you hosanna, and everyone at the back
and, agh, just everyone else
especially rayna, hahhaha, stop throwing rubber dust already
see i almost broke your eraser
i mean, i broke it
i'll be a double friend to you all
so don't transfer school
inggrid, time to have a plan

time to go for bitch movie-watching already
when was the last time?
oh, with that lisaaa
shitlah, my lisa essay
i cannot believe i forgot to include feigned & mocked
gah gah gah gah gah
but that blur ChangWaiMan is so cute
i could eat her up like a ManTou (:

right
i'm glad i have people to turn to

HURRRRTS ;

2006-11-11T22:53:00.000-08:00

and as i'm lying in my bed
thoughts running through my head
& i know that love is dead
i'm loving angels instead

don't ask me anything
or you're going to walk head-on into a lamp post
i have a headache just thinking about this
but it doesn't seem to hurt
why doesn't it hurt?!
i want it to
at least then i'll go to sleep and stop thinking already
sleeping is worse though
i dreamt about - last night
then when i woke up this morning
i thought to myself "shit, how did this happen"
somehow i like the thought of that particular dream
perhaps it might come true

i hope i'm not being too selfish or anything
apenas deseo sostenerle y no dejarle ir
thing is, is my hand slippery or is it you?

je saisirai français, puisque c'est une langue romantique.
Je devrais avoir juste appris le français,
c'aurait été si facile alors, et je peux alors maudire en français
(for best fit, translate to french)

i think ich liebe du

SUSPENSE ;

- gaby at jumbo

Christmas tree's up, i can hear the jingling
sounds, and hopefully no more glass balls will break
everyone is almost celebrating christmas now
even the shops are offering "Christmas Special Prices"

Saturday was a crammy full day
maybe i hated it a little
because i woke up so early in the morning
just to go for some school event
which turned out to be a total kill-joy
and a complete waste of time
it was so boring we had to occupy ourselves
playing with everything
& they koped my stuff and had a manicure session
hahhha, funnny
pamela doesn't know how to apply nail polish
and she's infatuated with the buffer set
poor kid.

then i got wet in the ugh rain because
the stupid monsoons are bloody stubborn
Ms. LEEKarHiang didn't want to let us off early
she kept keeping us in lahhh
which was so bad
cos cheryl's umbrella didn't even work
it's like even with the umbrella, the wind blows
the rain towards you
so you still end up getting drenched
welllll, i was dead-drenched since i volunteered
to go flag a cab

i tried to imagine Singapore without a proper drainage system
say 20 years ago
i'ld been able to swim in months
we had our last final catechism class yesterday
jerome is such an asshole
i'm not going to let him sit on me
whhhat, he's probably heavier than i am
had to rush off to East Coast for Yiwei's birthday dinner after that
the food was so good, we ate till we had obvious tummies
obviously, i realised something again
St. Margaret's girls help each other even if they don't know them
it's so cool lah, we talked about schoool stuff ;
okay too vague
school people hahhha the three-five kids were already
planning who to sit with next year

as for ME?
ah, i'll wait for next year to come
leave everything in oh-seven for oh-seven
it doesn't bother me that much anyway (:
i never knew you had to pay for wet tissues!
(gasps in horror) these people really know how to make money
then we decided to walk over to Gelare
after a major huge 15-min debate
which included trying to flag this maxi cab
OhMyGod, maxicabs are majorly maxxxi
the price, the cab & the driver also! ):
then we decided yet again to walk on the mainroad
cos the pathway looked really scary with all the trees
and we don't want to get raped like michelle wants to

on a perfectly normal school day ;

mitch: ohno, hooow, i don't want to go home on my own
amanda: why not? it's just a bus ride
mitch: what if i get raped?
amanda: hahhha, RAPED? YOU?
who wants to rape you?
mitch: i know you do
amanda: whatever, i'll leave you on the bus to get raped then

backkk ,
uhm, we got totally kicked up by table soccer
i think it's so much more fun than literally soccer
we kept screaming then some slappable kids told us
"in very polite terms to keep quiet"
bah, go to hell
i've been staying out late these few days
i suddenly feel so very sick
(maybe it doesn't have anything to do with that)

SUNDAY> TODAY
i practically spent half my day in church
God knows doing what
because my dad didn't want to make countless tripes
to church, so he decided to drop us off all
and pick us up all together
smart huh, at my expense obviously
and i had to eat breakfast there
such a huge breakfast it was
i got a stomach ache after thhhat
when i went for mass, i think i was being a spoil-sport
i stood with my elbows on the rest
i must have looked awfully short ):

actually, i went for two masses
although one isn't really counted
i sat down all the way
people are confused at how we actually bother
to get up so early to go to church in the morning
i guess i'm used to it
then i tried spying on someone which didn't really work
since my stomach hurt real bad
and the congregation kept staring at me
ah, they're just envious
bytheway, if you ever dare say my (piano) playing sucks
i'll wallop you straight upside down
i've been playing for ten years
of course it's good

i actually like church
that's so amazing isn't it
hahhha, must be all that morning devotions
and fidgety movements
although we don't get to do praise & worship
but it's okkk!ay
i've been wishing certain people to hell
this is so bad of me

stacey's mom has got it going on..
STACEY JODIEEEEeee CHEW LI ZHI
don't boast about your bag craze
i've got my shoe craze
i'm a freaking fanatic
BEAT THAT

my security guards are closing in on me
reminds me of bittergourd hahhha
i pinched this from cheryl's ;
supposed to talk abt air pollutn and environment.
but ended up talking with nicole and tessa.
talking abt amanda and how many flings she
will have and us getting married and with children.
look what they've been doing
hahhha, this is called The Energy
wonder where they get it from
i haven't flung anyone yet!

doesn't feel like headstart ended
i want a class & christmas party
screw michelle's lah,
it's like a light switch that flickers on & off
forgive me

all the world is waiting for the sun

mandddda chen, i think ms chan has the hots for you
- jamie in the toilet

i'm going to die if that really happens,
i'll be hiding away in one of those toilet cubicles
trying so damn hard to hold my breath
chem test was pretty easy because you didn't really have
to study and you still could answer the questions
ms siti didn't take lesson so that flat teacher took over instead
and i could eat my colourful cereals then

e/math was really funny
we spent the first half of the hour doing our test
i got restless so i came up with something to pre-occupy myself
i used my ruler to poke michelle's butt through the chair hole
so funny lah, she kept trying to catch it
we were discussing about how ms chan looks like a ---
the second half hour was spent marking our test papers
and she made some remark about how much i like standing
like (she can go straight to hell) whatisherproblem anyway?
i couldn't really hear what she said
since i was trying to get my message across to someone at the door
then i found out that i got 72% for chinese
i'm so happy, i was probably grinning like a bloody idiot
hahhha! well of course, everyone was equally shocked
i have no idea why, but deborah laughed as though her insides
were tickled or something
but i'm truly surprised anyways

Ms Choochootrain was/is such a ugh
she pointedly refused to return three-quater of the class
their report books because we hadn't "settled out stuff"
like i lost my term 1 & 3 progress reports and library fine?
scratch that, i'll never step into the library
she wants us to go back to school next friday
but i already saw my report book
so i'm not going back for it
oh, and what is with the "elective humanities dipped somewhat"
she must have been thinking of chocolate dip (:
i didn't feed on ice cream today, disappointment

lugged heavy books, files & a chinese dictionary home
because we had to clear the cupboard
thankfully, i got kim to help me carry some of my things
lighten the load a little,
i went over to her house and we made popcorn
it smelt so sinful, but i think i'm kinda sick of popcorn now
and we movie-marathoned just like the good ol' times

yiwei's card is a hit
i hope she likes it
neat is ugly
messy is artistic
grace took this from audrey hepburn
"poise is knowing that you never walk alone"

i'll seduce you until my bones rattle

only when you have tears in your eyes,
then do you get a rainbow in your heart
- some chinese saying i learnt today

i've to practise the piano two hours every day
from now onwards
this is driving me nuts
& i painted my nails purplish red/white
it's cool lah,
ok, today's the ninth
what do i do?!
everyone's telling me to..
and they even talked about me flinging
are my friends cute or what (:

skipped elective today to do geography
but the bollywood guy won't lend us
the tablet pc so we stared daggers at his red dot
not really, but really, we spent our time talking
about everything from left to right
and we kept jumping at every tiny sound

ms ho made the possibility of dropping from
pure science to combined science so tempting
it's like "you can score distinctions"
ah, ah, ah, she's the devil

i
am
so
flippers
for
tests
tomorrow

stupid monsoons get to me

what's the odds?
sixteen to one

our favourite time of the day, recess
- nicole cheekily

i feel like i've just had a spa
i had a hot bath today until my mirror steamed up
hahahha, too bad i don't get a bath-tub in my toilet
maybe i should have chosen my brother's room
because it has a huge bath-tub where you can practically sleep in
but then it'ld be nearer the ground floor
and all he sees outside his windows are the usual & flowers
not much fun huh

ms chan was totally onto me yesterday
yes rayna, the world is unfair
why does she always have to catch me
i was merely laughing really sparodically and uhh
maybe she got pissed because i pointed this toy-gun at her face
ehhh/ michelle brought it to school
and we kept loading-reloading it during lesson time
so i had to stand for twenty bloody minutes during e-math
i think i was dancing around and trying to switch on the fan
(we were having a fan-squabble)

went out with grace today to get yiwei's birthday present
which was kinda good since i rarely get a chance to go out with her
i hope kim's going for the party on saturday
then i can go too (:
after catechism class, whatakill/joy
okay, i lied real bad there
i spent almost all my money on food
it was just too irresistable, and greeeat
hahhaha, now i feel fat all over again
the accidental bumping into rachel was funny
it was like "hi rachel, hello aunty"
& today was some kind of direction day
everyone seemed to ask us for directions
maybe we look very knowledgable in terms of thiiis

chemistry ;
ms siti made us sit and think of what we'll want to do in the future
when there would be global warming & enviromental issues

ms siti: almost all the animals would be extinct because it'll be too hot
for them to survive
michelle: aiyah, i'll just shave off the polar bear's fur
amanda: you mean, you'll train them to do that

so in ten years time,
we'll be going to study vettish & surgery respectively

in twenty years time,
we'll take (doctor-ways according to michelle) to london
and ride in horse-drawn carriages to rayna's townhouse
where her butler will take our coats and lead us to the great hall

in fourty years time,
ms siti will be coming to me to keep her alive

is that good or is that good?

biology;
we had to do biology practical
which included drawing our eye
ms poh was being a fussy nag and kept telling
me to attach my eye lashes properly
and draw the hair properly
pffft/ didn't know drawing an eye could be so.. tasking
& we had to cut up potato strips lah
so you start seeing biology students
transported to f&n class chopping potatos to the right
lenght, width and height
while i made potato cubes for hosanna's spaghetti

hosanna, don't transfer school ):
you cannnnot leave me alone in a-math
no one will laugh alongside me at ms ho

i want to wrap my fingers around your neck
gingerly and squeeze the breath out of you
for you don't deserve to live in this good ol' world

APPOGIATURA ;

2006-11-06T02:51:00.000-08:00

they're onto us! they are
- whispers from the back

let's see, first
ms chan then
ms lum then
ms choo followed by
mdm azizah and
ms poh now

it isn't entirely our mouths
we've got to do some kissing practice
got lost today
and i almost ended up in punggol
which thankfully i had the foresight
to press the bell to stop the bus
or i'ld have landed up in some foreign part of this
tiny island which only cheryl would be familiar with
so we bused back to mac/ritchie
& i started to get impatient waiting for the
slow lau bus
it's hot damn lousy or something
what is wrong with it?!
gah, but it finally arrived
i was sorely tempted to be a rayna and cab there

ice cream for dessert was great
now i can boast even more
haha, two weeks & a day in a row
what is that
that's me, i'm a success

letter correspondence is good
it keeps me awake
our geog project received some commendable remarks
though i really couldn't follow any of the lessons today
they just had to swoop e-math with english
now we can't prawn the lessons before recess
to hide out in the library or our secret gambling den
but to attend english lesson instead
because ms lum will hunt us down even if she has
to climb the rooftop

what, it's just way too obvious already
three of us right at the back and the other two
just in front missing
uh huh, no chance
but i want to prawn it la, the resort is interesting
hello THE STONE AGE

what do i say to you?
that i jump staccatoes everytime you're there?

roll your eyes more often, it's good exercise for the eye muscle
- ms poh during one of the biology headstart lessons

let's use the analogy of a car;
Attitude is another key success in life. Having a good education but not possessing the right attitude is like a beautiful car that has the best body shape, paintwork and the interior upholstery but a lousy engine. What will happen? The car will always break down and will not help you arrive at your destination on time
adapted from "Amanda's Chemistry reflection"

as of today,

i am officially

AMANDA ZOTIA CHEN

i'm going to change my nametag

someone please remind me before i forget yet again

now the stupid old tu-tu chinese teacher can't

nag at me to sit up front

cos i'll just say my name starts with a "Z"

so that's at the back!

i want to watch Prison Break, i've heard that it's
pretty good, and it has got lots of suspense too
this morning i went to the gym
which turned out to be surprisingly crowded
considering it's a Sunday morning
(i had to go then cos confirmation mass was in the evening,
and i missed tennis ): no more peeps at the cute coach)
this guy was telling a woman on the cross-country machine
to acheive her goal and not "let the machine dominate you"
i was like whhhat, so i kept staring at him
until he finally looked over then i looked away
yeah, so these few guys were lifting weights
and were discussing about the movie "Behind enemy lines"
which went somthing like

A: "did you watch the show?"
B/C: "Yeah yeah"
A: "the guy is quite a superpower"
B: "they were shooting at him but he never got hit once"
C "especially during the helicopter scene, it's like bam-boom-bam but didn't get hit"
A: "the evidence right.."
C: "how many have you done?"
B: "5.. 6.. 7.. omph"
C: "pretty good, that's good already"

if you were to put on some emotion/thought googles
you would be able to see some wierd symbols around my head
reeallly, i just don't get the opposite sex
is it because i'm clueless or because guys are way too simple
therefore they're not complicated & complex enough
thus we can't be bothered to solve them?
i love puzzles

living the night live eh
- inggrid enviously

sinful food three days in a row
really calls for confession
today was dinner at crystal jade followed
by dessert at swensens after confirmation mass
de lovelies kept on calling me i had to excuse
myself countless of times
and i was so worried they were going to be late
i can't believe confirmation is already over
it's just so fast
it's like a train knocked me down and i didn't even realise
everyone says they expect me to be happy
that it's over
but maybe i'm not

i'm thinking of all the times i didn't pay attention during
lesson cos i was looking at (other) people
and i guess i'll miss that
probably the watercolour smell of the room as well

so anyway they were all so excited about the confirmation
thanks for the presents & for coming (:
you all are so cute
i love the ding-ding-dang-dang thing tessa
& the heartfelt letter mila
plus the bits and pieces from hosanna rayna and nicole
rayna kept on going on and on about how
"unfair it is" and that "they don't suit each other"
and her many "i want to kill her"
goldfish & nugges but they just had to remind me
about biology test tmrw, which i'ms o not going to study for
since mila and i are too lazy to get out of our seats
and chemistry? i shall be a car (:

THE NIGHT LIFE :

2006-11-03T06:57:00.000-08:00

my curiousity is a curse and a gift
- Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk & the employee of the month

chilled out at mitch's house after school
because she dashed my hopes of going to town
when her irritating stomachache occured again
so oxy & i headed down to her house
where we bought lunch at macs
and went to cold storage to get some stuff
when we came out, it was raining
(this happens everytime we go to mitch's house)
so i deduced that she must be cursed, haha
the taxi-driver had a different thought altogether though
we bummed around, watched Mr. Monk
which is really addictive and we all like it very much
plus we ate non-spicy muruku, kinda anti climax

rushed home straight after to change
for nicole's party
was supposed to meet them at 615
but i ended up meeting them at 700
late as usual, that's my trademark (:
however we found out later that my being late
saved everyone
for nicole called soon after i met them
and said she wanted us to buy wire meshes
cos "someone" forgot to get them
so if i wasn't late, then we wouldn't have been able to
get the wire-meshes, hence no barbeque ):

bytheway, the party was so fun lah
but the guard had to come hover around
and pour sour milk
gah, they planned it! THEY TOTALLY DID LAH
OhMyGod, they wanted to throw me into the pool
first, because i'm well, my register number is one
i came up with the ~~seven days~~ thing though
hahhhaha, i fooled them quite a bit
and i didn't get wet in the end

food was really freat
and i want a fireplace in my room
just so that i can grill marshmallows
over the fire, until they're crispy on the outside
but soft & melted in the inside
when you bite into it, freeeak!
it's like so i'm-transported-to-a-world-without-worries
ahhaha, it's really great
we koped the sausages, and mila & i kept on
going "soootoong balls, i wannnt"
i have no idea why, but everyone kept dumping
sausages onto my plate
(tessa, rayna, we ultra-ultra; sinned)
i ate till i was so full, i couldn't take it anymore
and i kept whining to everyone
i think they were kinda irritated haha
thanks nicole! i had a tremendous time

umph, i need the gym tomorrow, seriously
no more putting it off
procrastinating exercise is the worse thing ever

which reminds me,
i'm meeting hosanna tomorrow
at my club to discuss our geography project
we're supposed to come up with a design
for a tourism resort
agh, how bugging
and i've got the tablet pc stuck with me
(which is pretty good, except they don't have messenger and i can't download it)

ah, huihui is so sweet
she gave me a present for my confirmation
when she saw me, which was the first thing in the
morning when i arrived in school
i shall get her candy (:
i'm so contented that i have such nice friends
who're willing to do anything and everything for me
(eg. hosanna lugging the laptop back home and to the party)
not everyone is as lucky as i am

on the bus;
amanda: did you take 1702?
(referring to the laptop number)
hosanna: (understood it as 170 too)
no, my father sent me
amanda: (laughs uncontrollably)
hosanna: (looks on dumbfounded)
rayna: (looks on dumbfounded)
michelle: (looks on dumbfounded for a few secs) hahhhaha

rayna didn't get it until i managed to get it out
in between mirths of laugher

why is climbing the hill so nice?
what do you see?

& yes i dreamt of you too

PURE GEOG ;

2006-11-02T17:29:00.000-08:00

go up and do your research
- mdm azizah

hahhhaha, hello michelle (:
are you doing your research?
NOOO, you ARE researching on our proj, 0_o!
ok, that was so michelle
anyway, yesterday's biology lesson was
one in a milliony fun
i seriously like this week, and headstart ain't that bad
we learnt about the eye and coordination
so ms poh brought torchlights and mirrors to class
everyone ended up doing their hair
right in the middle of lesson,
& ms poh found it highly amusing..
uhh, mirrors in class are fun
cos we kept manipulating them and ended up
spying at people

"your pupil widened! ," says rayna
ms poh caught us playing with the torchlights
she kept highlighting that we were checking our hair & ears
why does everyone pay so much attention to the back?!
goodness, we had warfare in class
it's like we were using our torchlights to shine
at the three others, and mirrors as our shields
to reflect the light
hahahha, plllus ms poh became our star of the day
CHEESELS, but i bet she loved all that attention
she's a natural whatever it is

heading to nicole's in a few hours time
not after towning with the three lil pigs
and their banana in tow first
hahhaha, then my chauffeur is coming to
pick me up right at my doorstep
pah, everyone's cashing in on my chauffeur
what a freelooooader

oops, it's e-math now
i'm already late, i've to run back to class ):
bah, it's chanliyan soidon'treallycare

maybe if you open it a little wider
you get to do it faster

KEY & LOCK ;

2006-11-02T05:31:00.000-08:00

amanda! your potato salad
- hosanna all decked out in black & green

i fell head over heels in love
all over again today
sigh, with a pair of shoes
hahaha, i think i reallyreallymanyreally(s) want it
but it's like so costly and maybe i don't need it lah
it's pretty! (:
did half-an-hour speed shopping today
in town and had to toss a coin to decide where we're
going for lunch,
we're such indecisive people when it comes to such things

everyone managed to survive four periods of chinese
today only because we had a test, that's why
we skipped one hour fifteen minutes of lesson
excluding the preparation, the shifting et cetra
and during chem i got really scared
because ms siti gave another one of her talks
which are really positively horrible but encouraging
if you get it
it's really scary, and i'm scared
she started talking about O-levels
and they're pushing our O-levels forward
like OhMyGod butwhatistheirproblem

rushed to my first lesson with the new chinese tuition teacher
it was so fun and interesting
maybe because she's such a nice person living in a nice house
i might just like chinese
okay, big shock huh

this whole week's really interesting
i can't wait for tomorrow
where i'll be personally introduced
to nicole's boyfriend, tucktcuk
am i alright?

even the best fall down sometimes
even the stars refuse to shine
.. you & i collide ;

you sniveling little bitch
i bet you're waiting round the corner
to catch me

HOP AROUND ;

2006-11-01T05:04:00.000-08:00

extend it for me ok?
- amanda to venetia with a lil touch of plead

i have to get this off my chest
it's been bugging me for ages
i would like to tell everyone that michelle has stupid
theories that makes one go "shutupmichelllle"
her latest: as the new year unravels, old friends are lost and new friends are made
pffft, mine makes sense don't you think

and not only is ms chan onto us
ms lum is too!
she threatened to send us out of class if we
opened out mouths again
OhMyGod, but they're totally unreasonable
the next time they say that,
i'm going to ask them what is wrong with talking in class
it's not like we're distracting the rest cos the
rest aren't even distracted in the first place
really, we're only talking to make the lesson more lively
for ourselves, or would she rather us be sleeping away
during her classes?
it is better for us to be talking and wide-awake
because then when she says something important,
at least we're awake to catch it right

i swear, i cannot understand them at all
agh, every morning i've to listen to the big bully
complain about her stomachaches and wanting to go home
but i shall forgive her, since she's my
fly in a bucket of horsedung
which was totally drawn on my hand
we get to design a tourism attraction
on the tablet pcs!, ahhahha
and hosanna & i are so excited about our $5/hour
work cos then we can load the money off and
start shopping like craaazy (:

bags, shoes, clothes
it's a wonder my eye-balls are still in
& i've been craving for icecream these few weeks
let's see, i ate icecream everyday for the past week
ahahha, is that fat or is that fat
i'm so excited for my gym-workout on saturday
i'm going to slog it till my ass burns like hell on fire
ok, that doesn't make no sense

this whole week is packed to the max. ok
take a peek ;
friday- possibly outing, & NICOLE'S PARTTTY!
saturday- gym-workout & swim time
sunday- dinner out after confirmation mass
cheesels, i need to plan out some stuff
ohoopsiesorry, not supposed to use stuff

next week is packed with tests
and monday's lunch-out with mila was superb
hahhha, what did mila say?
ohyes, 'affairs of the heart"
i'm an experto noooow
want to know my theory?

love is a drug because you

become addicted to it

and i pay attention during biology lesson

so addiction is defined as something that

is given to you, but when taken away

you suffer from withdrawal symptoms

then only are you addicted

therefore, i conclude that love is a drug!

my theories make so much more sense that mitch's does

pah, take that

kristy's so cute

i can't believe she thought the prefect's green collars

could be attached and de-attached

that's hilairous

you send my heart racing

it's running faster than a race-horse

2006-10-31T05:17:00.000-08:00

stop laughing already amanda
- rayna (managed to get it out before succumbing to laughter)

today was so fun!
especially during math lesson
uh, last period
we couldn't stop laughing
which made ms chan totally onto us
she tried so hard to look grumpy but failed
cos we made michelle do her i-can't-be-bothered looks
and ms chan gave up
(her mouth kept twitching)
but i really couldn't hear what she was saying
so i had no idea she was calling my name
agh, and she made us stay back after class
so she could talk to us

ms chan: is the lesson not challenging enough?
amanda: uh, no
ms chan: then, wht is it? especially you amanda, it's
kind of embarrassing since i have close-contacts
with you
michelle: (snorts) and (stars laughing in that stupid way of hers)
amanda/rayna: (laughhhhs)
ms chan: *grouchy look* and you michelle...

OhMyGod, but e-math lesson totally makes my day
lets see, we were laughing continuously non-stop
for about half-an-hour because we made each other laugh
& rayna says that i can't stop, i really cannn't
i almost teared, so bad was my laughing fit

and i love ms ho's cow shoooes

i hope it ends tomorrow

LOVE BELLS ;

the height of their heads from the ground shows
their level of interest
- kim on students of st margs during assemblies

i wish it's raining right now
then it'll be a cold night
with a strong breeze
i'm happy today anyway, uh, cos some right
things happened, and i got to hit the balls
during tennis lesson today from the ball machine
which was pretty easy since the balls
kept landing on the same spot
so i didn't really have to move

back to school tmrw
i can't wait to give more directions
and eat more in class
oh, i promised to bring bags of chips

bytheway, everyone has given me different answers
to my really puzzling question
and my friends are all so cute,
they're so excited, they thought my
confirmation mass was today
haha, dinner next sunday will be so great
we'll visit the toilet soon after

the clock hands of all the clocks in the entire world
stops in a rebellious synchronized dance

TO LOVE ;

2006-10-28T06:03:00.000-07:00

there are many broken hearts out there
- eric addressing the class

we changed seating arrangement again
now the people sitting around me will be disturbed
haha, and they won't get a chance to sleep
i swear, ms chan really keeps picking on my for
no absolute reason whatsoever
she called me out at least five times during math lesson
and she kept walking over to our area
which made us keep stuffing balls under our table
she always asks for my green pen
no way am i going to sit next to her

thursday was supposed t be the last day of school
but for us, it was completely entirely wholey depressing
and normal, it's not our fault we're feeling this way!
the sec threes have headstart programme
which "entittles" them to two/three weeks more
of extra school curriculum, which stinks horribly ):
then again, i won't mind since it means going out everyday
and talking talking snacking in class

thursday was really fun by the way
we ate at thai noodle house with ox, and the three lil pigs
minus one, and then it rained and rained and rained
like what they would call raining cats & dogs
so we borrowed big umbrellas
ran in the rain agaisnt the direction of the wind
kept on laughing our heads off
and stepped into many puddles
the worst thing was: michelle totally splashed this whole
puddle into my shoe! GAAAAH!
& i started screaming at her, we almost poked the umbrella
into heitung at the bus stop
then we bused down to mitch's house where we pooled half
the entire bus, and everyone was staring at us

we spent the late afternoon laughing at people
oh, and chinese lesson was spent singing songs
the old naggy teacher who nags for a record half-an-hour
or more got so pissed she dropped more hair
cheesers ;

was rudely awaked to go for
tennis session on friday morning
skipped val's place because of the bloody rain
monsoon's arrived at the wrong time

I CAN DO ;

2006-10-25T07:26:00.000-07:00

clutching at straws
- the roundy tummy fato

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRACE!
i hope you grow taller & tallller.
and i hope mitch gets my pokky confiscated of something,
then i get an extra two packets
IPP today was so funny, and hot, and stuffy
nicole and i and all the other pure geog girls strolled back to class
yeah, she was talking about us
and then i had this crazy idea
i wnted to wave to her, hahhhaha!
bet she'ld have totally fainted on the spot

it's like we had to patch up the classroom
everyone, cover your ears cos i'm going to curse! (:
obviously some lazy bums didn't do anything
just sat around and whined like sri------
(fill in the blanks)
& ms wee took us for chinese, which we didn't really pay attention to
since we were talking about the mouses
hah, i cannot CANNNOOOOT believe it
those stupid ughs actually caught me for breaking one of the
ridiculous school rules
like !, i shan't say more
but i HAVE TO, absolutely, i think school is kinda corrupted
i can tick off the number of prefects who have short skirts
and floppy hair, and ugly nails

but really, it's hilarious
daohui: amanda, squat
so i squated
daohui: i mean, put your knees on the ground
amanda: you mean kneel

the whole thing was really a huge attempt at trying to reinforce
the already ridiculous school rules, thereby making them sound
all the more ridiculous
and teachers can be so insulting at times, (for hosanna)
"you watch out! don't toy with me"
hahahah, that was a good one
oh, i'm so happy.
i got 78 for history, that's like second highest in the year
after all that failures and the 85 in term one

kim dragged me along with her to shop for stupid cds
and i assure you, i made the best out of it
after that thai noodle lunch & mango dessert
i decided to fulfill my never-ending craving for ice-cream
so we ate ice-cream,
got a blocked nose from that sudden cold,
and ran home in the rain!
ahaha (at least i got a hot bath)

you're the best thing that ever happened to me

SHOPPING PARADISE ;

2006-10-23T07:53:00.000-07:00

my cat doesn't talk to my dog
- oxy very seriously

don't disturb me
headstart was so boring,
but biology was interesting
haha, and we got another chance to talk about ms poh's clothes
uh, chinese was dead boring but laoshi left half-way
so we ended up gossiping again
it's like from cheryl, nicole and tessa
they were talking about guys & flirting
then from rayna, michelle and i
we were talking about school stuff
it's like this absolutely contrasting thing going on

and michelle and her "different frequency" theory is illogical
oh, but then again, everything about michell is completely illogical
(she's so going to get me, but i can run faster!)
and i don't particularly care if she spits corn on me
ugh, i hate corn on me ):
lunched out today, played cards at the same time
i wager we made the loudest noise in the entire building
since michelle as yelling her guts out
& it's so hiliarious since we kept argueing
everyone loves potato snack
hah! told you to trust me already

cheryl: do you flirt?
amanda: NO! what kind of a question is that?
cheryl: you flirt but you don't know it
amanda: huh, who said that?
cheryl: you're in love with two guys

firstly, i DO NOT flirt ok
that's totally absurd
secondly, i'm not "in love" with anyone
thirdly, i'm not dirty minded
why does everyone say i flirt? agh

it's painful when your feelings are down

TAINTED LOVE ;

2006-10-22T06:28:00.000-07:00

how can a person knocking at the door be allowed in
if you don't open the door?
- arlene

camp was fun only because the others went
otherwise it would have been such a dead bore
and we kind of had a foothold in most matters
as the sec threes were the ones who organized this camp
but that neutral shell came and spoilt everything
seriously, she's our to make our lives a miserable living hell

escaped from camp for a few hours to go to church
am i pious or am i pious?
did the confirmation interview and realised that i might not
be able to get confirmed because i gave all the wrong answers
(they were not wrong, just not what the church would've wanted)
at least i was honest
i could've lied my way through again, like i always do in such events

i love the tennis session today
it's so much more beneficial and besides,
the coach was better
& i bumped into some people from primary school
where we had this interesting conversation

i think my tosses are still way off though
didn't have to drop anyway subjects so
that's a pretty big relief
all in all, i failed one subject for this finals
ugh, i'd braced myself for that not so unexpected one
headstart starts tomorrow, what a dread
i guess we're expected to pay attention during classes
and follow the timetable, which means bringing books
gah!, i'm lazy to do so

i hope the french lady doesn't visit,
she hasn't done so yet
speaking of french, during the whole duration of the
dance examination, i was staring at the examiner's
blue fake louis vuitton bag
an idiot could tell so
should i go for the halloween party?

i wait for inspiration to strike.
it is like shooting darts, you don't always hit the middle

ONCE AGAIN ;

2006-10-19T06:58:00.000-07:00

every step is like a breath-taking jelly drop
- michelle, on the way back to school

had lunch with the funny people at thai noodle house today
i felt so full afterwards, i have no idea how they managed
to stomach the red-ruby
anyway, they're totally hooked on this card game la
especially madeline, she's like always rushing people
in this (sweeping hand motion) it makes her look ever so comical
and i found this secret spot for us to play
since the school doesn't allow poker cards, ugh
it was hot, but hey, at least it was discretive enough
oxy said it looks damn illegal, ha

the prefect made me get rid of my three-finger nail polish
it's so nice la, they've stars on them
and she gave me the prefect's nail-polish remover to use
grazias so much,
the discipline committe has been causing such a big uproar
over this huss fuss and puss of conducting spot-checks
aren't we spotty enough?
we seriously don't need a spot-check

everyone's probably talking about they're results now
mine is so flach, not that i'm saying more
i'm pretty pleased with my comprehension
i made such a stupid (really) mistake for this a-math question
hell, i could've gotten an "A" grade for a-math
it was so damn stupid, i turned to michelle and asked her (politely)
for permission to wrap my fingers around her neck and strangle her
obviously she denied me that release, agh
succumbing to self-loathing ain't healthy
speaking of which, i totally found many hot ocean-trenches on michelle
it's super duper uber cool ok, and by the way,
oceanic and oceanic plate = ocean trench
so michelle so owes me one (:

i love massaging her cos her fats so nice to play with
it's stretchable

camp's tomorrow, what a kill-joy
agh, haven't started packing yet
you blood-sucking asshole, you can go straight to the devil

calling card

ZUT ;

2006-10-18T06:38:00.000-07:00

i am not an exercise freak
- retorts amanda indignantly at michelle's casual statement

i never knew hannah the hayeena would be so naughty
pfft, next time i see her, i shall tease her
yesterday was lunch out with mila and inggrid at town
and we ate some great food!
let's see, the day was pretty interesting on the whole
we had make-up and skin care which taught us how to
take care of our facial appearance et cetra,
it was like break-time for us since we spent the whole time
talking, yes talking
(whilst some hyundins can't keep their prying eyes off us)
tessa helped me doll up whereas i flopped jamie upside down
haha, but she looks really cool in green

body combat isn't that good after all
it just has a nice sound to it

meteor garden is so addictive
ah, i'm watching it now
it's like a bitch show with a passionate love

so back to what we did yesterday,
nail-painting
we went around the various cosmetic shops
and tried on the nice colours
i bought the star one, everyone likes it (:
conclusion: anna sui's nail polish is so lovely, it costs $22
big joke, and i totally fell in love with eye-shadow
it's like "art on a canvas"
just that you're doing it on your face
art is drop dead gorgeous

camped out at val's again today
with fast-food (fatty food) and uh, this korean movie
still like the constant gardener.
hah,

what if the beach loses its sand?

PRUNKVOLL ;

2006-10-16T06:30:00.000-07:00

so much for shopping amanda chen
- jamie huffily

i can't believe it! i had to miss tennis this morning
because it was too hazy
i knew it! i had this intuition, and when i woke up
look out the window,
the trees seemed to be smoking on an invisible cigarette
it's so terrrrible, after looking forward to it

but i did something today (:
i met with mila, inggrid, val, and stacey
(jamie, ashley, siyi, and unknown?)
those in brackets aren't really counted considering
they wanted to play LAN and we didn't
so we kinda parted ways ):
ah, the first time i'm early for meetings
and everyone else is late
this is so awkward, therefore i vow never to be early ever again
i've got sore feet now, due to all that walking walking walking around
we're trying to break stacey you know
get her to like shopping, she's always complaining
and chasing us out of the shops

stacey: see there! it's an "exit" sign, let's go!
us: eh, next shop (grins)

when it came to looking for their japanese comics,
it was my turn to complain
maybe it's because i haven't yet developed an appreciation
for japanese comics, (or anything japanese excluding food that is)
i've yet to talk about my two-hundred and fifty six
it's eating up my insides, practically
actually, make it more than 256$
i have got to save that beastly amount to get everything i want
perhaps by then, the clothes for the next season would come in huh

i shall breeze through two things we did today
the rest you can get it from the rest
uh, we viewed the latest handphones introduced into society
and i must say, they're really quite lovely but (below expectations)
i guess i expect a lot which is another reason why
i want to design my own phone and clothes and bags
so that i won't have to be so dissatisfied with what the shops are offering
and they won't have to think my a fussy consumer

i never expected the fashion phone to look anything of the sort
in my humber opinion, it doesn't resemble fashion at all
the first thing that came into mind was,
odd shape for a phone
(notice the word "fashion" wasn't included)
also, the new phones are nice because of their many functions
but if so many functions make a phone big & bulky
what is the purpose of carrying a phone?
definitely not for convenience

#2
we went perfume-hunting
if you imagine it to be hunters chasing animals in a forest
then you're absolutely right
just replace hunters with us,
animals with perfumes
and forest with ck tangs
appealing perfume spray-on cards are so adorable
and everyone fell in love with the apple one
the bottle shapes just remind me of suspension-art
we sprayed & sprayed and sprayed
under the not-so-watchful eye of the sales people
and breezed out of the building smelling literally
of different variations of perfume combined into one

i find my reasoning of why i "dislike" shopping perfectly reasonable
stacey apparently thinks otherwise
what is wrong with "disliking" shopping because you always see pretty things
every single time you go on a shopping trip,
and you realise you never seem to have enough
yet you yearn for so much more?
(but you can't get them because of financial restraints)
it's as if someone else is pulling the strings
oh, "holding the purse strings"

this is amazing! a frog eyes would bulge
i actually think (after ages) that cheryl's favourite song
is pretty ok, and it sits well with me
ha ha ha,
tell me i've not been hit by that crazed bug.

beautiful love ;

what a beautiful smile,

can it stay for awhile

on this beautiful night

make everything right

this song just makes me so sentimental,

i simply have no idea why

kim says it's alright to have sentiments once in awhile

or like joanna would say

"amanda!, you've been giving out too many hearts,

you keep none for yourself"

(the "i simply have no idea why" part is a make-believe)

tomorrow would be entirely depressing

but the upside? where sunshine is,

we're going to crash val's house again

and guess who just called?

the devil herself, choo yeow peng

i swear, the stupid relay system doesn't work

the crazed

just like a virus, you have infiltrated my very being

but my white blood cells seem to be going on strike

the phagocytes aren't working

& the lymphocytes aren't producing antibodies

my body's disfunctional, i can't think straight

i fear i must be going insane

ON TIPTOE ;

2006-10-15T06:56:00.000-07:00

maybe it's pride standing in your way
-chery to amanda full of encouragement and enthusiasm

so it is this time of the year
that again decides our fate
it's so annoying how you can't have what you want
and it's the teachers who decide
someday i'll have my way

i missed tennis today because the haze reading apparently
reached what the authorities term as "unhealthy levels"
why do we always have to follow rules?
breaking them once in awhile would be fun and pleasant
i won't say i spent half the day wool-gathering,
i read another book and there's this lovely name in there
PHADRA (pronounced fay-dra)
isn't it nice?
well, i find it nice

can't you understand?
love never makes any sense

Les Choristes ;

2006-10-14T07:43:00.000-07:00

inggrid! isn't he cute?
- amanda

RUN RUN RUN! ;

2006-10-14T06:58:00.000-07:00

i know, i hate people like that
- valerie in obvious irritation

we'll do it all everything
on our own
we don't need anything or anyone

if i lay here
if i just lay here
would you lie with me and just forget the world?

i don't quite know
how to say how i feel
those three words are said too much
they're not enough
forget what we're told, before we get too old
show me a garden that's bursting into life

i need your grace
to remind me to find my own
all that I am, all that i ever was
is here in your perfect eyes, they're all i can see
i don't know where
confused about how as well
just know that these things will never change for us at

let's waste time ;
chasing cars, around our heads

this totally gets you hooked
wait till something better comes up

GREETINGS ;

2006-10-14T06:15:00.000-07:00

that's because everyone associates love with the heart
- inggrid to amanda very knowledgebly

i think the camp problem is fixed
but thing is, i don't want it to be fixed
i don't even want to go for camp
gah, there probably won't be anything interesting done there

i'm caught in such a frenzy
saying "imaginative web i weaved" would be kinda cliche
so i shan't say that,
uh, tuesday, it's back to school
and i'm pretty positive that we're going to get back our results then
ohgreat, i just had to say it
sorry, spilt the milk onto the coffee table
now it's your turn to wipe the mess up

the downside about this whole thing?
school gives back our papers in two days
so it's kind of like getting hot soup thrown into your face
and if you're not careful, you'll get scarred (for life)
okay, so maybe i'm exaggerating
but that's true (if you tone it down a little)

everytime i walk past a subway outlet
it's always then, as in then
so anyway, confirmation mass just has to be on a sunday
sunday is supposed to be the sabbath
(ok, i'll stop here, we don't want to go into that)
and i'm going to miss tennis ):
but ha ha, i guess one has to sacrifice much

highlight of the day:
"i heard a "plop" sound and turn around to see a lizard
very extremely arrogantly staring at me"
how hilarious, that's downright disgusting
grop grop grop grop!

don't ever say "i've got nothing to say"
because that would be the biggest lie
anyone could ever think of

THINK TANK ;

2006-10-13T08:17:00.000-07:00

quit playing games with my heart

rachel tay wants to marry cloud
cheryl wants to marry marcus
rachel wants to marry justin
now, who wants to marry me?

haha, rayna just cracks me up anyways
she walked and there was a clinking sound,
so she found money at the bottom of her jeans
wonder how it got stucked there
oh alright, i shall quit talking

tell me, how many fingers do it have?
i'm holding them up

OH GREAT ;

2006-10-13T07:31:00.000-07:00

i'd rather be pretty than hot
- kim under the streetlamp

i really can't imagine why everyone's making such a big fuss
and titter totter over friday the 13th
it's just a pleasantly normal day
oh, but i must say, i've bene pretty unlucky this week
ever since monday, i've missed my bus just standing
a metre away from it
if you don't call that unlucky, i've no idea

and to give vally wally credit, her house is really beautiful
it's not made out of gold (like inggrid conjured up)
but it certainly contains gold,
(if you get the meaning)
i really enjoyed the shows, plus her bed's soft and lovely
not to mention someone really died for pizza

wednesday was lunch at tcc with rayna and this 3/6 girl
dewi or something of the sort
anyway, she's nice (: and so is the lunch
buuuut, it bloody burned a hole in my precious wallet
thank you very much
i've calculated (ahhh, using math) and figured i've got to save
256 dollars to get everything i want
so for now, it's resisting the temptation and sticking to window shopping
no idea how i'm going to do that, but i'll manage
like stick & bones and her stupid words don't affect me that much
cos no one really likes her anyhow

we visited vivocity afterwards, i won't call it a rash decision
just more like the normal impromptus la
the thing i can't absorb:
i super can't believe michelle beat me to that shopping place first
like ugh, this is such a letdown
but considering michelle's such a dear and uhoh.
(grace tan's making me go for camp)
back to michelle;
and i kind of miss our bus stop talks (it's talks mind you, not gossip)
so, i shall forgive and not bear grudges
ha ha ha ha,
hey, i got my sense of humor back

here's a little snippet of the conversation we had whilst sun-tanning
(we were waiting for our next chemistry paper to begin)

cheryl: (says something)
amanda: fiddles with chem book
cheryl: (shouts it)
amanda: what/ i didn't catch that
cheryl & nicole: (double shouts it)
tessa: (giggles)
amanda: oh hello MARCUS!
cheryl: hey (starts hugging nicole)
amanda: ohshit, tess, call cheryl?
tessa: (laughs)
amanda: cheyrl! marcus is cheating on you
cheryl: huh? ok

*note
i wonder what cheryl and nicole were trying to say/shout

when hearts are not meant to be broken
as how the stars are meant to shine
i'll go wherever you take me,
away from all this hurt

PERHAPS THEN ;

2006-10-10T07:52:00.000-07:00

pardon me sir, i must have made a mistake

the finals are finally over,
(tht has a pretty nice ring to it)
oh, i wonder how many people have told me i have
absolutely no self-control when it comes to shopping
i've visited the city three days in a row
and i'm still sorely addicted to shoes
it's as though i keep on buying and can't stop
i need an antidote

shopping yesterday with cheryl was creepy
get the details from cheryl's
and i love valerie's house,
no, i love her bang & oluffsen cd player
shit but it's damn nice
hot damn refer to mila's

sorry, i've got a lazy streak in me
house of wax is extremely gory
but the african show kinda made up for it
it was so noble

SHAKE IT PLEASE ;

2006-09-25T09:27:00.000-07:00

An eye for an eye will soon make the whole world blind
- Ghandi

End-years are this Thursday, uhhh,
I guess tht means STUDY!, and PANIC!, and more yoga sessions
During a-math, like (breathe in-- & breathe out-- )
& more COFFEE DEMAND
heitung: “this is like low class starbucks”
Amanda: (chokes and glares)

I miss our on the net chat using our pencil cases, it’s so fun
Plus tessa would have to keep on reaching behind her screen
And ms ho doesn’t wnt to join in the fun ):
Amanda: “hello tessa (enter)”
Tessa: “hi Amanda (enter)”
Amanda: “HOSANNNA! Stop doing chem already la (enter)”
Hosanna: “huh? Cannot, this is important (enter)”
Inggrid: “I’m not invited? (forgets to enter)”
Sorry, we couldn’t read that

Rayna didn’t come on Friday because she was busy spending
Her time in the toilet with her social studies textbook
If I remember correctly, until two in the morning
She so needs a butt-massage
So anyway, I hopped over to sit next to Cheryl at the “lover’s corner”
It isn’t really one considering that drops of rain come in everytime it rains
And tammy keeps turning back to “shhhhht”
But there is sufficient wind
Poor poor johnia, her partner keeps jumping ship (:
I like teasing johnia about how Jamie calls her jooo-nia
Kind of like Joanna, speaking of which
JOANNA! GIVE THE GUY THE LETTTER!
I’ll never forgive you if you dump that chance
Cheryl did love-sessions again, “matters of the heart”
Ha ha ha, I don’t have matters of the heart,
My love life is absolutely non-existent
Uh huh, I’m not lying about this one (:

E-MATH with michelle was full of laughter
she keeps on giving me silly ideas
and her facial expression is (there-but-not-there)
so it turns out looking rather awkward, sending me off on a train
full of laughing gas
“LAZY BUM! I WANT GUM! Or there’s no coffee for you”

I’m thinking tmrw’s dance exam will be swishy
I can picture it (in my mind’s eye- whoever said tht didn’t make sense)
Us: Good Afternoon (smiles pleasantly)
Examiner: Good Afternoon girls! Is your name … (over-enthusiastically)
Us: uh, yes
Examiner: And what are your register numbers?
Us: ONE!(: six, three, fifteen, four, seven
- Music plays –

I just wanna know
If you’ll be my girl

Your desire for attention is appalling
It’s telling me how limited your imagination is
In case you didn’t realize,
I turned my back on you long ago
The past and the present somehow don’t coincide
I won’t give you due attention
Oh, scratch that, not a single bit of attention
I will even curb my temptation to slap you
Because slapping is to give attention

Maybe it was a case of mistaken identity

P/S. I love a-math trigo, beat that
