Beautiful sunset.
Such a pity I didn't have my cam with me. I had to make do with my phone.

Maybe in future, my occupation will be closely related to nature. I'd really like that. Annd.. I wanna be a photographer too!

School's started already. It's been quite hectic cuz I really don't know how to manage my time. Plus, I've been falling aslp in Bio lesson. Argh. It's only how many more months to Os and I've got the urge to just slack. Haha. I can't help it.

I met my dad's pri school friend and his family over the weekend. Nepalese man married to a Chi woman here with a daughter. Haha. Current ballerina, future netballer. Really sweet looking girl, whose only in pri5 and is as tall as Syid. And she sucks in Chinese too. Muaha. Crazy fathers. They actually suggested I teach Liyana mandrain. Bullshit. I'm dubious I'll even get a B-sth for Os and they want me to teach her.

Another friend happens to be really spiritual. She came to Sg to meet my dad and to sort of make "pilgrimage". She's a buddhist. And she's really into her religion. She travels the world to go to different temples. Oh, and The Swissotel is nice, very spacious. Took a nap on the huge comfy bed. =)

Sleep is.. evading me, kind of. At night la, that is. Not good, not good at all! Tmr is the O Lvl Chi oral. I'm not prepared for it! I really can't express myself in mandrain at all.

Tuesdays with Morrie is a nice story. But I think I'd have cried if I read the book, not watched it as a movie. Somehow, the movie always turns out to not meet expectations after I've read the book for myself. Like The Notebook. I cried like nobody's business when I read the book.. But I fell asleep watching the movie. Am sucha sucker for cliched romance and feel good stories. Ha. =) I wanna watch a lot like love!

Anyways, today is kinda like the last day of the holidays. Don't count the weekends la. They're always thr.

Went to town. =) Sorta got Syid's really really late birthday pres.

We got shades from Far East. And for the first time, I went shopping and only spent about 20bucks. Not a nice feeling. No satisfaction! We went to Hans to eat and the damn shitty place has very lousy service. I stood there for god knows how long, and I was ignored. I called the woman and she's like, "1 second ar.." Next thing I know, she's taking the orders from ppl behind me. Like, hello? Am I invisible? Got fed up and didn't get any food in the end.


Despite the lousy service, I'd say the food wasn't half bad.

But ohh, the consequences of not getting food for myself. I'm starving now!

Mango began its sale and damn, was the place crowed. The whole place was crawling with women. And at the entrance, some poor guy would be standing there, looking into the shop, with a stoned countenance. Most men always look like that while they accompany their girlfriends/wives shopping.

6pm came too soon. We had to be in school at 6pm. English. My parents think it's a waste of time. Ha. But we rushed down anyways. Or tried to.

The cab queue was so long.. And when we finally got a cab, there were some jams.




I've got a big head. Ha. Even if I don't try, I block out Sarah.





Finally reached school at 7. Noone seemed to care cuz we waited till the break and just, "blended in".

I got my nomination letter from Ms Tang. But I'm not applying through DSA anymore though. Such a waste. She wrote a great nomination.



I've always wondered. Am I an over-achiever? Ha.

Please excuse my boredom.

Your wise quote is: "Our greatest glory is not
in never falling, but in rising everytime we
fall" by Confucius.
Yes indeed, you see true strenght can only be
seen when a person has "fallen". Only
then one can tell how they will handle it. Just
don't make others fall so you can know who they
really are. You on the other hand may be a very
quick recoverer and don't let people bring you
down. You are your own, and you're find with
that. Emotional issues is something you handle
rather nicely.


What wise quote fits you?(pics) UPDATED
brought to you by Quizilla

You're like me! The intelligent loner. You're shy
at times but friendly, and you are never weak
and always independent. You are incredibly
intelligent (wise beyond your years) and have a
talent for many things (sports, music, art).
You have a kind and warm personality and enjoy
the simple things. Like hanging out with
friends and watching movies at home. But you're
sometimes quiet nature makes you a bit of an
outcast and a mystery to people. No matter how
pretty you are or smart or athletic, you just
can't seem to break into the crowd and be
noticed. Don't worry, try to be more outgoing
and speak out when you have more to say. Don't
hide behind your books and sports and computer,
get out there and get noticed. You also have
deep desires in life and feel vunerable and
alone at times. Don't feel sad either, What
helps me to express feelings and dreams that I
can't say to people, is through my writting.
Maybe you should try.


What kind of girl are you? (with pix!)

You have a surprise kiss! Your partner is always
pleasantly pleased to have you jump outta no

or more passionate embrace. super markets and

Oh, not so innocent after all.

You are a child's kiss. Completely sweet and
innocent and pure. You mean no harm and only
love in your sweet kisses.

Who'd have thunk it? Heh.

Pucker up! *mmmuuaaah.

To my retarded child,

No warranty = pay $100 to get the watch repaired.

But I want to shop with the money!

Oh, it's coach's birthday. =)

Weird, almost 4 years with her and she never relented when we begged her to tell us when her birthday is. When I sms-ed her today, she said she always wanted her birthday to be a secret.

I miss her scoldings. Heh.

Ren: Unfortunately..it is that watch. Unless you could sacrifice your time and help me look for the warranty, it's a gone case. Just another memento.

Who is tinkie winkie?? I also wanna know. And btw, t.w: Everybody's purple friend is Barney!! =P

And all the talk about comparing Aqil and my height? Well, I've got news. He doesn't mind so much anymore. Haha. So it's alright if I grow some more. It really wouldn't hurt either of our egos. =)

It's been a busy weekend, sort of. I finally managed to catch Mr and Mrs Smith. Angelina Jolie is just plain hot. I wonder what happended to Angelina T. Haha. That felt a bit evil. But anyways, My cousin came over again.

Saturday was an early fathers' day celebration. I love my daddy.


The man of the hour. =)

We all agreed we would go Indian that night and since we were celebrating fathers' day, we let dad decide where to go. I don't know who recommended him the place, but we ended up in an uber ulu place in Serangoon. The "restaurant" was..well, kinda far from it. But it was okay la, I suppose. The food gave Ed a stomachache though. No prizes for guessing where he had to go.


Me and Ed.


A better looking Ed. (compared to the one above where he just looked plain weird.)


Mum and I.

I think my Mum should learn to bask in the sun, instead of shy from it. A bit too pale, no? But she's still beautiful. =)

After slacking a few hours with tummies bloated with pizza, Ed and I decided to go play squash today. Guys are always so arrogant aren't they. Just because you won.. =P Ha. Then kinda just stripped and jumped into pool for a while.

And we were off to watch Batman.

Worth the money. Though I really hate it that it now costs $9.50 on weekends. As if we students aren't broke enough already.

I think why I liked Batman is because of my childhood. I don't know if anyone had the same experience as I did, but there used to be this show, Batman and Robin. And i loved it. It was complete with superhero, hot car and villians. And hey, whenever Batman and Robin beat the villians silly, on the screen would appear those comic bubbles thingie with words like BAM! and POW! Haha.

To a kid, it was cool, way cool. The good guys always won.

And I remember some cousins and I would don towels and jump off the couches in the living room, singing at the top of our lungs, the theme song for the Batman and Robin show. All we needed to do was wear underwear over our pants and hey, presto! We became supermen. =)

Ah. Childhood. I never had many friends but I always had my cousins and they were enough to make my childhood memorable. Family is family. =)

I lost my Swatch warranty! Without it, I can't send the watch for repair...

Nothing's on lately. Really, really bored is a serious understatement.

Clumsy me has spilt huge glasses of water/juice all week and now some parts of the carpets smells funky. I would know because I lie down on it whenever I use the laptop.

I've broken my spectacles. Again. Darn. I think I might as well get new ones.

In an attempt to fulfil my wish to grow taller, my mother came up with a brilliant idea. She saw an ad in Karnataka about this sole thing that has certain raised parts all over it and it's supposed to stimulate pressure points on the soles of the feet which in turn will stimulate growth hormones and it's claimed to work for anyone under 30. So, she took the liberty of ordering them and today is the first day I'm trying it out.

Supposedly, I must walk 40 minutes a day on that darn thing. Painful leh.

I am currently 164cm in height. So, let's see if the thing really works. If it does, I should be taller in 3 months. They didn't exactly state how much taller.. Must be a scam, right.

By the way, it's a Jap product. That explains the risibility. Hmm.

Happy Birthday, Ren!



=)

9th of June. Quite a day to remember. =) Had Lit in town so met Syid and Ren there. Shopped a bit and I bought nice shoess. Walked around a lot, mann. My feet were aching.


Cookie monster! She almost single-handedly finished my bag of Famous Amos.


The train was shaky la. Plus, it's Ren's handiwork. =)

After frantically searching, we found a few gifts. Suddenly, it's already 630 and we were supposed to be at the farewell at 7! (Oh, I was still not invited la. Pearlene thought something freaky was happening when the office phone suddenly rang.. o.O) But anyways, we were freaking out in the cab cuz there was so much things all lying around and we needed to wrap some stuff! We were all late and somehow, amidst everything, we lost Mdm Rohaya's gift! I felt so, so bad. But it was late and we couldn't do anything so the three of us waited for Cleo and Shing Ee behind the dumpster, writing a "we owe you" note for her. Haha.

The place stinked. And Shing Ee. Woah. I've never met anyone else so goondu! We were walking into the canteen and somehow, all the candy we bought for the juniors spilt out of the bag.


'02 batch of Netballers. (Or what's left of us)


Syid and the nice cat.

We took some pics after dinner and were soon asked to go to the avt. As per Dmn Netball tradition, the juniors put up little performances for us. It was a real change fron all the previous years of singing and crying. But it was really sweet that they actually came up with a poem about each and every one of us. That was when we started crying.

We presented our gifts to the teachers and the juniors had a surprise for us. They made us close our eyes and confident walk style, led us to the basketball court. Where they made us sing before we could open our eyes to see...



this! Aww. So sweet of them. And they did take the chance to be cheeky la. They tried to get the 6 of us to blow out all the candles in one breath. But it was fun they sang birthday songs. I'll bet Ren won't forget this camp. =) She insisted on taking a pic of the cake for her, Mdm Rohaya and Clarion.

Thenn, we had a treasure hunt! Another Netball tradition. My group was going round and round in circles. Tsktsk.



Clarion had to go soon though. Her dad came..

But it was fun! Know why?

Cuz for the first time for everyone in the group, in 4 years of Netball camps, we won! =)


Ren's victory dance?

Lights out was at 1am. Put the sec1s to sleep, and the sec2s and 3s atarted cleaning up. Only Syid and I stayed over. We couldn't sleep. At 3am, we borrowed a basketball and started playing. I feel old, mann. And seriously unfit.

But it was fun. We stunk but whatever, just slept like dat. We only got about 2hours of sleep. But we had lots of fun. And we had company!





I change my mind about cats already. Such a cute little thing. =)



Awww. =)

Oh yes, did I mention? I got back my 6230. Anyone want the flip? If so, can sms me.

I don't exactly know where to start. Maybe like, I'm in love? =) With clothes that is. Went and splurged on this white skirt cuz it had lovely sequins!

Lookie here. =)



Nice lovely sequins! Like a very nice top I saw. But I wouldn't wear that top out. But it was so nice. Ha. I'm so fickle. Sarah, Ren and I then went to eat at Mache. It's not that nice la. I don't get why Sean is full of praises for it. But death by chocolate? Almost.

Eh. I just _________________________________. Forgot what I did on Monday. Ah, yes. I swam! With Sarah. Byron almost joined us but he bailed so he could meet Indons in town. She talks a lot. Haha..a lot of catching up, I suppose.

The seminar in town was super boring. Boo. I don't wanna go back tmr and Thurs.

Oh yeah, Thursday's the netball June camp farewell night. =) Every year, it's a night of laughter and lots and LOTS of tears. But our juniors.. Haha. They were so busy planning the camp perfectly, they forgot our invitations!

eurgh. I'm feeling insomniac-ish. Usually, I'm a good daddy's girl and am sleeping before 12. But today.. Mann. I've grown too accustomed to routines that once I'm out of it, I'm really out of it.

And I've got the compulsive urge to spend all my hard-saved money! Shopping is like second nature already. Like on Thurs, spending time just trying on outfits which I doubt any of us will ever really buy, let alone wear and walk down Orchard Road in.

Madagascar was fun? Haha. It was so-so. Not up to standard after all the hype. Bumped into Adora along the way. Woah. Hot babe alert. Haha. It's amazing how different ppl are really are inside and outside school.

Friendship is over-rated. Yea. Darn it. It's like, shit just happens and suddenly, wham bam thank you ma'am, everything's not the same anymore and you know it never will be. In this case, the shit didn't even happen. We just.. stopped talking. The issue's been put aside for too long and I just don't know how to deal with it. Other than the occasional bitching, of course.

I guess it's really true la, huh. That ppl are sarcastic/bitchy/backstabbing when they're insecure. And all the bullshit about being yourself, true to yourself, not caring about what others say? It's just that.. Bullshit. In this superficial world, everything's lip service. It may fool us for a while, but even after we know the truth behind the matters, we just continue paying bloody lip service.
