-I have a habit of typing in point form now, blame it on countless p.w emails/ ppt slides.

-This is my third post for the day, goes to show how much I'm bored to tearss!!

-weedylim WHY YOU NEVER REPLY MY SMS TODAYYY:( Naw im kidding it's not your fault.

-Yesterday's water polo training trained my core mus-kerls like mad, my stamina is really lousy now. I have a love-hate relationship with polo drills. Why you ask? when i was at my 4th set, I honestly felt like faking a leg cramp (pathetic ttm). and then when ive finished my 10th set I'm so proud of myself for going thru all that shit.I mean it.I got woken up at 5.30 am by sore mus-kerls in disguise of a tummyache. I dont even wake up that early on a school day for goodness sake! Because of you, mus-kerls, I feel the need to eat all the time today. GRRR.
Found myself at the computer for 2 hours changing my blogskin, scrounging the refrigerator for food and watching mtv breakfast club. The music videos are so boring now, everything's just a copy of the other. And by that I meant pixie lott and kesha(if you know who they are). They look like carbon copies of a blonde ashley tisdale.

Anyway.

I should be thankful I get to have days like this. Short-lived, but still there all the same. oh my oh my, jc really sucks the time out of me. It's been a helluva journey with you year 1, let the slacker in me manifest a little before year 2 comes knocking on my door. I better be(scratch that) WILL be prepared.

On a brighter note, I am 80% through with packing my study table! love love how neat my notes are now, all filed up in big green ring files.

I do plan to study today. part of it goes something like this: Read chem notes.

no prize for guessing what im gna do now.

love,
yh.

Today, we had our very last mtg at jm's house. I wanted to wait till today to tell you all about my groupmates. They have been the awesomestest bunch of people i've ever worked with for the past 8 months. Fiona, hazel, syafiqah, and jiaming. We were all very different people, with the same goal in mind and that was to get an A for PW. No doubt the journey has been a bumpy one, but nobody said it was gonna be easy right? We were definitely unsure about each other at the beginning, but as the months went past, we begin to see each as more than just a colleague, but as a friend whom we want to see do well. I love how we are so comfortable with each other, with syaf and hazel who are so obsessed with everything korean, and fiona who has a rather volatile enthusiasm, and jiaming's random comments and uber yummy cooking. I might have been the bossy b**** at certain times to yall but nonetheless thank you for accommodating me, for telling me not to be too stressed up. I'm gna miss working with TJ094 :(

LAST DAY OF P.W TMRO!

HEY ZEE, YOU BETTER BE READING THIS!

The pictures you see, were( and still, now) what defined you, me, us. We weren't sisters,neither "just friends" but something a lil more special, like a sis-mance if you ask me. It's amazing how fast 4 years has passed, and occasionally, while chilling at pacific cafe at vivo, we'd go right back to the first time we knew each other. Yes, the bus! I hope you havent forgotten. We didnt strike up a good conversation immediately, but God had a more beautiful plan in mind for us. Circumstances brought two very similar, yet very different girls together, and we've been growing, building each other along the way ever since. You taught me what it means to love a friend, really. "Love" has been so overused today, such that people forget it's real meaning. We forget that it means patience, understanding, kindness and more importantly, loving even the imperfections. When you begin to see the person inside, and find out that you'll never want to share your dreams, goals with any other besides that person. Babe, you know that i'll always be your pillar of support, and you, mine. The tears that fall, the hurt that stings, I cant heal all of them but I'm a good listener, and you dont have to hesitate to call me y'kno? Thank you for being my best friend, you mean so SO much to me! Sucks that A levels and my promos/pw takes our precious time away. Hang in there for 3 more weeks girl, we'll spend our 4th christmas together this year! PROMISE.

HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY MY DEAR :)

MY EYES are red and swollen from crying, not because of promo results received today ( I did fine for it, tyvm) but because I just watched A walk to remember for the very first time.
Im not being overly emotional here, if you've watched it you'll know what I mean!
AWESOME AWESOME MOVIE I TELL YOU. it was like watching ghost whisperer season 4 episode 6-7 all over again.

SO YEP, that sums up my monday.

Just got back on a recce trip with brother sy biau and sister winnie, along with sister wee eng, janice and cedric.

sy biau and winnie is sucha a cute couple. Cannot help but be envious of the sort of chemistry they have with each other even after 10 years. Sitting behind, you do feel like youre kinda barging in on their lil conversation but they still include you in nevertheless.
Yes I do wish/want my future husband and I to be like that in future.

tmro's care and share. I pray everything goes smoothly :)

I feel like I just had swim camp all over again. Im burnt like a red lobster, like a red apple, like the red track in my school.
thank you aloysius for the aloevera, Im sorry I used up quite abit because I kept applying it on my face. and Sherry for the umbrella.

I need more melanin.

If you have been wondering what I have been up to since after promos, here's it.
Monday was spent with b, which I enjoyed very much.

tuesday and wednesday was hardcore P.W bonding time. We presented, we edited our w.r, we ate jm's homemade cookies. 2 more weeks!!

then thursday and friday was sports carnival, and I was under the sun for more than 5 hours, which explains my face color right now. But I had so much fun la, with my pdp, and class. Photos will be up after I get them from jm. Go titans! yall earn my respect after gg thru all that man. and that means you too karonchung! :D

@ 9:47 AM

The truth that many people never understand, until it is too late, is that the more that you try to avoid suffering, the more you suffer, because smaller and more insignificant things begin to torture you in proportion to your fear of being hurt.

took me awhile to comprehend this.

Studying with yq has become a simple bliss in itself. My day will start out like this. I'd head over to her house before lunch, sometimes after lunch, depending if I got up on the right side of bed that day. And then I'd grab my notes and papers, then take the bus down. I secretly(not a secret anymore now) look forward to dinner. We discovered the new fish soup thingum! It's at the foodcourt at serangoon. Right after it's bubbletea from sweettalk, peach tea and honey milk tea with small pearls. Despite it being very routine-ish like, I get to know her better after each studying trip. Also, I realize she has a much better ability to focus on her work. I'd get really restless in between, take more power naps than she does and go to the restroom a million times, and gosh keep eating those mooncakes! Sigh Im gaining weight and having a lack of exercise.

Why am I still here? Bye it's my last paper tmro I shall head to bed now.

p.s Movie marathon at Syaf's house tmro! I'm gna make the most out of my short-lived freedom.

I KNOW THERE'S STILL ONE MORE PAPER, BUT ME A VERY HAPPY HAPPY GIRL TODAY.

words cannot describe how im feeling now. those nights I stayed up, studying for a crazy 10 hours at yq's place 2-3 times a week, the caffeine, eyebags, past year papers, sacrificing so much of my time, and then it all boiled down to these 5 days. 5 STINKING DAYS. With the shadows of jcts still haunting me, it is only human for me to feel a little discouraged. Yet, I charged with the tenacity of what was evident only during my O levels last year. Okay, so maybe not as crazy, because a certain subconscious part of my mind got a little complacent, thinking that promos is afterall, just promos.But you know what, God has brought me through once more, not forgetting my friends whom without the encouragement, the "hey it's the last lap for the year, let's give it our all" attitude that carried me through this period, I doubt I'd even make it halfway through. I gave my best, so whatever will be will be. que sera sera.


Thank you Alisa, evan, sihui, jessie and jacinth. I can be rather anal when it comes to asking for exam answers but you people have been so helpful :D


I feel so, so light now honestly. I know, there's still P.W but that's another matter altogether. Ah, then im reminded again that A levels is but a year away, and it scares me how fast this year has flew past, no? I know it's a lil too early to say this, but 2009 has been sucha hella ride for me. Things that I've regretted doing/not doing, and others that I'm so blessed by. I wouldnt wanna relive it, but I'm glad I made it through. To you b, my pillar of support, thank you. :)

p.s I need to liven up my fb! It's scares me that some guys have twice as many photos as I do.
zeechoojiahui my camwhorepardner hurry up get done with As.
p.p.s In the car this morning, my dad said he's gna sponsor my driving license next year!! another reason to look forward to 2010. :D

5 MORE DAYS

Thursday, October 08, 2009 @ 11:27 PM

Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s like being young again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day’s work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there’s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life.

Once in a lifetime experience I would say. How many comm balls can one attend, and no two commissiong balls are the same. There're more pictures and videos that I wanted to upload but they're kinda NC16! What's missing up there were the poser pussycat dolls performances. That aside, im glad I got to know xinyi that night. She's pretty right? haha. Might I add, the food was superb. Dessert really was the cherry on top. It even speaks for itself huh. I had a great time at marina mandarin. Thanks chen! Go find out what's the hot babe's name leh! HAHA.

-When someone lies to you, it teaches you that things are not always what they seem. The truth is often far beneath the surface. Look beyond the masks people wear if you want to know what is in their hearts. Remove your own masks to let people know who you really are.


-When someone steals from you it teaches you that nothing is forever. Always appreciate what you have. You never know when you might lose it. Never take your friends or family for granted, because today and sometimes only this very moment is the only guarantee you may have.


-When someone inflicts injury upon you, it teaches you that the human state is a very fragile one. Protect and take care of your body as best as you can, it’s the one thing that you are sure to have forever.


-When someone mocks you, it teaches you that no two people are alike. When you encounter people who are different from you, do not judge them by how they look or act, instead base it on the contents of what is in their hearts.


-When someone breaks your heart, it teaches you that loving someone does not always mean that the person will love you back. But don’t turn your back on love, because when you find the right person, the joy that one person brings you will make up for all of your past hurts. Times a thousand fold.


-When someone holds a grudge against you, it teaches you that everyone makes mistakes. When you are wronged, the most virtuous thing you can do is forgive the offender without pretense. Forgiving those who have hurt us is often the most difficult and painful of life’s experiences, but it is also the most courageous thing a person can do.


-When a loved one is unfaithful to you, it teaches you that resisting temptation is man’s greatest challenge. Be vigilant in your resistance against all temptations. By doing so, you will be rewarded with an enduring sense of satisfaction far greater than the temporary pleasure by which you were tempted.


-When someone cheats you, it teaches you that greed is the root of all evil. Aspire to make your dreams come true, no matter how lofty they may be. Do not feel guilty about your success, but never let an obsession with achieving your goals lead you to engage in malevolent activities.


-When someone ridicules you, it teaches you that nobody is perfect. Accept people for their merits and be tolerant of their flaws. Do not ever reject someone for imperfections over which they have no control.

-When someone loves us, it teaches us love, kindness, charity, honesty, humility, forgiveness, acceptance, and all of these can counteract all the evil in the world. For every good deed, there is one evil deed. Man alone has the power to control the balance between good and evil, but because the lessons of love are not taught often enough, the power is too often abused.


-When you enter someone’s life, whether by plan, chance or coincidence, consider what your lesson will be. Will you teach love or a harsh lesson of reality? When you die, will your life have resulted in more loving or more hurting? More comfort or more pain? More joy or more sadness? Each one of us has the power over the balance of the love in the world. Use it wisely!
