everybody, guess what?I'M A PART CHINESE PART THAI !
part 1/4 thai only. whatever.
had no idea there were thai blood running through my veins till my dad told me my maternal grandma is thai.
11:58 PM
how, er, weird.
i see people's msn nicks like "new life, new start, new me" (ahem) and "a new way to start life!" and that sort of thing. like, everyone is changing for the better or improving themselves only on the chinese new year. but not 1st January 2006. LOL.
thats just fine.
cause i'm like that too. (:
have my new year resolutions and stuff like that out for feb, yes, too. ((:
went to COURTS to look at some furniture. but nothing really seemed to fit what i'm looking for. so decided to go over to IMM.
guess what. none of the furniture shops in IMM were open. ):
ended up going to GIANT getting all those pastry stuff and this and that.
oh well.
at least i have my chicken mushroom pie. (:
hmm.
broke 3 glasses at work today. LOL. 1 tea tall-glass, 2 wine glasses.
still cant get over the fact that while i'm helping out at the restaurant, which i LOVE doing cause i meet so many new friends and serving people that type of stuff, i still get paid.
i mean, i get paid doing something i like.
and i'm forever smiling when i'm doing this job. its like, everything is funny, everything is happy.
okay. enough of that.
the esplanade library's piano scores! ah! still havent return. and its dued tomorrow. great.
i have all my most hated/boring subjects tomorrow except PE. oh. wow.
met zhenyuan at sunshine place. he claimed that the food there sucked big time. maybe cause he's been eating there too many times. boo. i think the food rocks so much more than what i usually get to eat. :DDD
english homework. zz.
my heart skipped a beat when you said that.
but why?

11:58 PM
a really short post before i get offline.just read some more blogs.
1 sentence to say.
i'm so VERY proud of regent sec 2s. (:
they'v learn to understand the meaning of trying, 2nd chance, motivating, risking, encouraging and friendship. even those who dont fully know yet, they'r at least halfway up the mark.
I'M SO GLAD. :DD
to think they actually think and do so much behind our backs. ((:
7:25 PM
anyway. i was just reading my friend's blogs. loads of them. and i realised most of them, who are band members, have problem practicing their instruments at home. matter mostly because of their NEIGHBOURS complaining.
therefore, i thought to myself.
i'm so lucky to have GREAT and WONDERFUL neighbours. (:
let me give you a couple of scenarios.
firstly, i was practicing some exam piece on my piano (when it was still in the living room) when all of a sudden i received a phone call from my neighbour asking me to play titanic for them to hear. (:
secondly, i was playing I WANT IT THAT WAY by the backstreet boys on the piano repeatly daily non-stop when i was in p5. when i went for my lesson, my piano teacher (who stays 3 floors below me) told me that HIS neighbour asked him why I always played the same pieces recently, and told my teacher to tell me to try some new pieces. LOL.
((((:
ok. i know i'm super lucky. i dont usually get any complains when i practice all my other instruments, mainly cause it isnt THAT loud or echo-y like the piano.
plus i also have neighbours who stay across my flat. which in case you dont understand, there's a sort of garden/park seperating us.
so once i played the Eb clarinet till one of its top notes. and i received a sms which went like "HEY! YOU'R PRACTICING! (((:"
haaa.
and its not only me.
my other neighbour who stays directly below me plays the keyboard everyday.
another across plays the trombone (mostly scales and band pieces).
another across plays the horn (new neighbour). and he's like DAMN DAMN DAMN DAMN pro (maybe from syo!) with his sound projecting everywhere towards the nearby blocks.and my piano teacher himself who plays so many pieces.
guess what.
not even a single complaint. (:
instead, they even recomment us new pieces to play and what pieces they are even SICK of listening to . LOL. amusing isnt it.
and i MYSELF listen to THEM especially the horn player, and enjoys their music. even when they are just warming up. (((:
I LOVE MY NEIGHBOURS. :DDD
6:01 PM
HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!
oh. sorry for not blogging for the like, past few nights. was either too tired, or at the east coast chalet with some family members.

helped out with loads of people at the restaurant. boonping, me, chenyang, siying, jiahui, wensheng and lots of other teenagers and blah blah. was really fun this time, met some of my neighbours. and i could hear the whole table talking about me secretly. i think. LOL. x)
on the restaurant's 2nd take-in of customers, i got this 2 tables. under the same name. and they seemed to like me a lot. DUH. i'm so NICE !
ok whatever.
when over to the chalet at MIDNIGHT. whew.

sorry for being so open about this, but i just HAD to blog about it. its not like its anything EMBARRASING or DISGUSTING. soits PART OF THE HUMAN THING-Y! there.
OH OH. AND I BROKE MY TOE NAIL.the VERY long one. x)
oh boy. my sister was so damn freaked out cause i told her i was KEEPING it for memory sake. haha.
sunday --
chalet. chalet. chalet. we really slacked a lot. cant believe how we survived so much on mcdonalds' fries. hey, its DRIVE-IN what. lol. went to grandma's for a while. jasper's dad and friend came over to visit. and me and cheryl escaped, we went cycling! on the two seater one. and the guy in charge of the stall when like, "ehhh. got chinese leh."
-.-"
doesnt mean all chinese must celebrate chinese new year what.
monday ; today --
checked out in the wee early morning. tried to rush for the mcdonald (wah lao!) breakfast. but ah. just 2 more customers to us, and the crew went to change the panel to the lunch menu. so sad. ):
went to uncle cheng hwa's house for lunch. (:
my aunt keeps saying i'm going to LASALLA arts next year. and i had to go "no no, dont want dont want" countless times.
oh yes. my relatives are very devoted to christ. uncle steven and aunt helen pulling me on some mission trip. lol. x)
yes, i grow fast. :DD
dad told me another 2 of my cousins got jobs overseas too already. new york and britain. so yeah. aint surprised. most of my cousins dont live in singapore already. lol.
my grandma's a PR in america. no one told me that before. -.-
am invited to L.A to stay with my aunt and her family this year end. while my father and sister go to ORLANDO. like that one. zz. hopefully if i can really go, i'll be able to stay till june. can hunt down Interlochen and County High at the same time. x)
cleared my room. moved my bed! like FINALLY. staring at the 'empty desk area' and 'soon-to-be-practice-area'. seems like i'll have to make a few more changes. hmmm.
listening to HIGHLIGHTS FROM CHESS the orchestra version. not really nice. the actual band one will probably make me cry more. or better, the one which CHARLES plays as a solo WILL make me cry. (:
WHAT TO DO. SEC 3 ROCKS!!
(:
i love my sec 3 batch too much. <333
well. almost 6 already. doing up more blogskins which i owe before february comes. thats right. have to use photobucket for now, something's wrong with the image hosting.

11:57 PM
seriously, this is really horrible. all those viruses are letting those by the way people, i'm back to making blogskins. final i have mastered enough 'paint' techniques to use 'photostudio'. so if i still owe you one or you would like to make you one, do leave me a tag or msg.
physics test was so 'dots'. its actually from our past final year paper B. like, how original can -.-"
i owe my history, physics, dnt and social studies teacher major homeworkwhich is also due tomorrow. x_x
KILL ME. ):
OH OH. I DID WELL IN HISTORY! AN A2! (ok. i was hoping for A1. but hey, its a good step!)
maths was HORRIBLE. not that the lesson IS. but, the graphs totally made me so confused. my head was like, so nearly about to burst. i bet ms beh could tell too. x)
sec 1s came down for band today. and yes, i have TWO more clarinetists! or one? not sure. zz. o well. the sec 1s are really attentive, especially the girls, very nice bunch. eager to learn and everything. ((((:
congrats to flutes for FINALLY have THREE. told ya! ;D
double congrats to the sec 2 cornet-ers (err...) for improving A LOT. and having the 'BIG AND WIDE' sound already. yes. all of you all finally starting to sound like catherine/jiahui/nathasha! well done. :DDDDDD
went to help out with work today. was waitress for a while before becoming bartender. guess what. i know how to serve soup already! so damn proud of myself.
and i broke a glass. x)
learnt a really valuable lesson today. from none other than one of the food I/C herself who is like, almost 50 and is really wise. yeah. how? shall explain.
last week, when it was my first few times working, she told me to take the "tuo ban". and gosh, i didnt understand at all. and went like "huh?" all the way. she got really pissed off and scolded me. of course, in my head, i was thinking, "what on earth? *&^%$##" that kind of stuff. but in the end after a few minutes, i resented and just thought, 'oh well. who cares. i'll just try not to step on her toes that much anymore.'
today, i offered to help her cause there wasnt enough service waitress. and oh boy, i could tell she was really impressed by me. cause i was like really nice to her and all. then when i was working at the bar, she came over and talked to me and said althought she scolded me its because she wanted to me to learn the correct things ever faster than the rest. or something like that. and i was really touched (:
senior citizens are so wise :DDDD
oh wow. look at the time. shall go chiong history. byeeee.
i'm HUNGRY.
Wednesday, January 25, 2006
10:08 PM
see, i promised a new blogskin. lol. aint bluffing you. hmm. might be kind of dull, but i'll stick with it for now. (:didnt went to school today due to aching of my stomach and empty vomits. yucks. so in a way or another, i have wasted my time today doing nothing but slacking on the bed. how boring.
i missed PE today ):
i missed I NOT STUPID 2 today with my school )):
)))):
met up with the elaine, hayati, runting, baohui and marion at lot 1 for my dinner at night. yeah. i was well enough already. haha. and according to them, the movie is really really good. elaine wants to watch it again. haha. i'm so jealous, i want to watch it too!!
all of them cried AT LEAST 5 times. including my class boys. like. woah. so 'powerful'?
was eating A LOT tonight. gosh. something's so wrong with me.
POA homework postponed to friday, hurrah!but so what.
history, english, maths, social studies, all tomorrow. sad case.
physics test on all sec 3 topics tomorrow. i really cant be bothered at this time already. no amount of cramming will help, its obvious. will just have to hope for the best. dont learn from me people, this is called BAD PLANNING!
bad rebecca. ):
they need help tomorrow at the restaurant again. should i go? hmm. INDECISIVE!
just realised if i was to write a list on what i have to do by this week, it would be like, a whole page. sigh, sigh.
i did something really bad today.
God, i'm sorry for what i did, i really am. ):
6:30 PM
hellllllooo people reading this post.
o well. i'm currently working on a new blogskin. sudden inspiration. do come back to view it at say, 10pm? yeah.

Tuesday, January 24, 2006
5:32 AM
listening to The Egg Travels by an orchestra. love the horns. the effect is like, totally amazing. (:5 periods of DnT lessons turned out to be a trip to the Science Centre all ofa sudden. and they really added loads of new stuff there. yeah. definitely will have to re-visit there some other day.
assembly was horrible. i mean, 1 whole hour talking by the principal is like, really nuts. 20 minutes, i can take it, but an hour? i was like, ASLEEP with my head down. assembly is supposed to end at 2:30pm, but the guest speaker from some charity got to start AT 2:30pm. so silly. and it was obvious to everyone that the guest speaker was there at like, 2 already? cant believe mrs/ms loh just went on and on. like, c'mon?!
the sec 1s came for band today, though about 10 didnt turn up (all from the same class, bet they didnt even knew they had to come), there was still a lot of people. so we let them try the instruments AND know what they had gotten TODAY. so fast. argh. i'm jealous. ha.
i have 6 clarinetists. (:
altogether now: 19 ((:
lets hope at least one from the 10 who didnt turn up will join clarinets. i want 20!
band size now exactly 110 on the dot. i'm really amazed. lets just hope this batch wont be like suhaila's batch and joseph's batch, with the 'curse' of 'having the smaller batch'. lets. HOPE. i rather have 20 sec 1 members who will stay rather than 40 sec 1 members who will only leave one by one and in the end, 10 plus left by the end of the year.
anyway.
i see a lot of potential in this batch. (:
a lot.
o well. still, you never know. hmm.
POA tomorrow. so disheartening. shall do my english instead. there.
[edit]
oh boy. dad bought more packets of juice home today. and one of them was GRAPEFRUIT JUICE. gosh. its like TOTALLY pure which makes it ten times worse than drinking LEMONADE. so damn sour. argh. plus i added like, 1/2 a cup of WATER in, and it STILL tastes the same. great.
[/edit]
[double edit]
oh wow. its like so dark already. and so late at night. hmm. dad just came in and told me he's bringing us to Olando (how is it spelled?) in america end of this year. and i'm like. "i dont want to go, can save my part of the money buy new professional violin for me?"
oh. at least he said ok. (:
i really want a handmade professional one straight from Gremacy (Katong) with a good fingerboard which can enable me to do vibrato better than before.
i badly need that high distinction for gr 7, 8 and diploma cert.
and i will get it. ((:
motivation! ;D
and in case you dont know, my teacher's professional one already cost 10K.
hmm.

early post today, 7:01pm.mom promised to cook spaghetti today. but WHERE IS IT. ):she said she'll cook that tomorrow. zz.
oh yes, i must thank someone who was so kind to do extra letter writing homework which was 5 pages long for me to use as a guide. and he did it till 3am. thanks chenyang. (:
mr choo said i was guai
my head hurts. ):
finished Chicken Soup For The Girls' Soul today during chemistry and POA. tsk. naughty me. think ms merduati knew me and siti were reading below the table anyway. hur. going to get Chicken Soup For The Teenage's Soul soon.
did the compo challenge thing today after school. as usual, i didnt take note of the time. o well. i wrote a whole chunk of introduction material, and the body is like totally horrible. the tail too. boo.
ate at macdonalds' with elaine. met elisha, afiqah and yvonne tan. later we joined yoke lian, aaron, yvonne ong and amy when they came. played the handphone game with them. ha. they took so long to figure it out. just like me. lol.
there's this horn player staying near me who practices like 4 hours a day w/o fail. and now he's practicing. so freaking. loud. but very very very nice tone, i swear to nothing. ((:
yoke lian and amy initiated to ask siying for sectionals today. wow. i'm so proud of them, especially yoke lian. :DDD
just end early. i want to bathe then do a bit of DnT. and i have to update my table calender. soon.
i'm not an exhibition for you to show others.

11:56 PM
went to help out again at the restaurant in the morning and at night. being a waitress is fun. oh yes it is. (:but there was this SUPER snobby rich family sitting at the middle table. tsk. the father is like so OH MY. mum too. the two children are like, spoilt like mad. fancy almost the whole crew having to attend to them. if i could i would have almost snapped at that man. so damn snobby.
ate late lunch with siying, jiahui and chenyang. chenyang is ultimately mad can. fish and chips plus crispy chicken, which is actually chicken cutlet. what to do. he's a guy what.
school starts tomorrow. and i havent done my whole stack of ACS POA worksheets, chinese letter writing, and english article. bad me. dont learn from me people.
Saturday, January 21, 2006
8:33 PM
had exco meeting. long time since we had one. ha. i love the EXCO (:watched The Heirloom with jordan, charles and jiahui. gee. people, if you'r heading for a really scary show, dont go watch The Heirloom. there was not even one time i was frightened or shocked. dots.
went to nanyang poly and singapore poly's open house with them.
nanyang is like, really cool, and so nearly almost perfect for me. dental therapy course, beautiful campus, piano ensemble and symphony orchestra as CCAs, its totally there. and jiahui likes their design course too. :D
marion said the dental course is like. 13 points or lower. and my friend told me its now lower than 9 points. so its even more difficult to get in, than getting into some great jc. so there.
singapore poly was definitely not for me to even look at, cause they seemed to focus much more on business, accounting, that type of stuff. so charles had a bomb of his own. lol. hmm. maritime seemed really interesting, but ah, i'm just not the type for singapore poly. hoho.
went to help out again at the restaurant. this time, there were like, me, siying, chenyang, boonping, jiahui and zeting. loads of regenites. lol. anyway, today's function was a wedding. and i got to serve 2 tables! plus it was fun fun fun. and the aunties and uncles kept asking me qns and they didnt even give me a difficult time. (:
EYE CANDY NEAR ME!
i'm going to be a dentist when i grow up.
Friday, January 20, 2006
9:07 PM
home at 6:45pm. was already so dead beat.sec 1s got their allocated ccas today. think they will start coming for band next week. and i still dont know how many sec 1s band has. hur.
got back chemistry paper. i was so right. man. i flunked it. 7.5/20. and so obviously, plus my horrible chemistry results last year, i'm in for chemistry remedial. hoho.
at least i'm not a loser in physics. 12/15. i think it isnt bad. for such a sleeper like me in mr chen's class.
yes siti, WE WILL LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES. :D
me and siti are like, reading books/magazines in physics class. so we have them right under our tables, and when mr chen comes, we just push it in. ok, i know thats really bad of me, fancy me not concentrating in class. tsk.
music at acsi. the sec 3s came today. and we (sec 4s) kept going like HEY SEC 3s! haha. only managed to catch a few of their faces, didnt spot any regenites just yet. hmm.
music history. did Debussy today. i like him. he's such a rebel. (:
did some orchestra anathology from the so-called textbook, which is really a conducter's score. mr lee played the cd. and the whole class likes the piece, including me. HA. guess we'r going to listen to it like, every night. haha. x)
i'm sorry that i had to tell you that you were getting on my nerves. i wasn't being mean, but you just kept making random comments. as in, really really random ones. you said you would change, and i'm starting to see loads of improvements, especially in school, but now, are you going to slide back just like that? i'm feeling very irritated. and disappointed. i can be your friend, but please, know where to draw the line.
Thursday, January 19, 2006
10:29 PM
hohums. just finished smsing a whole bunch of people that there's last-minute band tomorrow. cause poor us will have only like, 2 practices next week? tsk. lol.physics test was okay. poa test was HORRIBLE (trust me, if more than 5 out of 36 ppl pass the test, i'll kill myself). maths test, i didnt even take it, thanks to the House Meeting.
o yeah. the house meeting would have been good if people arent so fakely demoralised. and siti plus some other sec 4s sitting around me wouldnt stop talking and cursing about this sec 3 girl who was chosen to be cheerleader for our house. tsk. not that i dont know her, but she's giving people the 'act ah lian' face even from across the range. bloody hell. i see why all of you dislike her. even i myself can act 10 times more lian than her and then be crowned BAND NERD. hur.
i love social studies. (:
history is better!
band was great today. havent gotten our sec 1s yet, most probably after chinese new year? i dont know. lol. anyway, some sec 1s still came, just for fun, even though they'r not even confirmed in band. haha.
this sec 1 boy named ming en, he's already helping the percussion section move instruments and practicing with them. ha. he's probably bended on being in percussion anyway. and when mr lim goes "percussion go in", he goes. LOL.
mr lim assigned about 6 of them including a new sec 2 instruments. and there's 2 french horns, 2 tubists, a saxophonist plus an oboist! a really natural one. bet miemie is as happy as a lark. to a certain extend. cause zeting isnt. someone else will be taking HIS oboe. aww.
and to prove all of you i dont have SHORT TERM MEMORY, i shall recite the sec 1s got the instruments. EUNICE. SAMANTHA (SEC 2). PEISHAN. JALENE (spelled like that?). DARREN. CATHERINE.
and those who just came later, sat, and watched.
MINGJIE. and two more chinese boys. opps.
had intervals singing ear training in the music room. sec 1s, 2s, 3s and 4s all seperated. so fun! have not done this for a REALLY long time. ;DD
the sec 2s/3s are sounding and looking better as the day goes. (:
o yes. i felt really happy today. the band's moving. i'm moving. everyone knows we'r accepting sec 1s soon, everyone is a senior, and we have to MOVE on. go higher, think further, no more HEY JUDE, its FESTIVO. that sort of thing. hmm. i dont know why. but the 'band major spirit' is finally fully erupting from me. i'm maturing from the immatured me. and i know how it feels like. plus i love it, and i'm proud to have it, in me.
i love regent band so much! :DDD
POHYING. MY TIMING IS 17+ MINUTES ALREADY. ):
HOW.
Wednesday, January 18, 2006
8:30 AM
something's terribly wrong. my whole body ached straight after school. was extremely tired, and i couldnt even speak properly. doubt so? ask siti.i told you, if i saw one more graph, i would COLLASPE. and yes, i ALMOST did. my head was so so so painful, i felt so AHHH.
siti went to change the date for the POA test unknowingly to TOMORROW on the whiteboard. therefore, NO test today. YAY! :DD
seriously. so what? the test will still be tomorrow and i still wont know the material, backwards or even forwards, sigh.
PE was so slack for me today. i cant believe i STOPPED running at the 4th round only. boo. thank goodness nice guys like bingquan can motivate me to start running again. (:
timing for 2.4km from 14 mins, to 15, to 17! OMG. x(
i'm happy. am starting to put focus into chinese for once. (:
went to lot 1 with junhao, qihui, nicholas and jennifer. all these band juniors. and while they were eating, me and qihui started to look for ARCH FILES. qihui is like, he cant even tell between A4 and anything else. HAHA. x)
violin lessons. forgot my books. lol. teacher let me try a 6 months old violin he just bought. the tone is not full and seasoned yet, but the grip and everything is like really good. like some electric violin. and he only bought it for $2500, right STRAIGHT from the factory. totally hardcore. :D
poor ben cant pass my test. LOL. /grins
will be having like, 3 tests tomorrow. gee. God bless me.
i'm thankful i have you. (:
Tuesday, January 17, 2006
9:01 PM
mr choo has two children. i never knew that. hmm. whoever is his wife is like, damn lucky can?5 periods of DnT was put to very very good use today. i cant believe for once, i'm ahead of the boys for all my portfolio stuff. it makes me so motivated! :DD
woodwinds band practice today. with mr lim. and we did so many etudes from Symphonic Band Techniques till i was pretty much almost out of breath.
tsk. just realised that my dear sec 3s and 2s woodwind players dont have the initiative to set up even half the chairs for combine, the poor logistics members. so disappointing. have to knock some sense into them soon.
siying ROCKS. the way she took the woodwinds for falling out was like, WOAH. people, she's not strict, its just that you never heard saw her take YOU for drills before. ha. so random.
i definitely must rmb to double check on the logistic's whiteboard. ((:
POA test tomorrow. i'm going to DIE. no doubt. depreciation you know? like, WHAT THE HELL is THAT?!
ALRIGHT! THERE'S PE TOMORROW! AND I LOVE PE! :D
i <3 my excos and band mates to bits
the Eb clarinet is mine, forever. :DDDD FOREVER! ok. i'm selfish. i know. (:
[edit]
ahhh. i'm so sad. sec 4s all so busy with classes and all. sob. i miss my excos. i miss my sec 4s and gangyuan. SOB.

11:53 PM
i dont know what to say. is cme an important subject or not? i mean its like, mr chen is not cut out for teaching such a subject, yet he can come up with something as interesting as a mini skit. o well.chemistry test was like so dots. topic, REDOX. i was mostly HUH throughout. hope i can scrape it through, HOPEfully.
mr chen printed out stuff on poly open houses. me and siti are planning to go for all, except republic. siti declared herself-and-me anti-republic. right. haha.
if i see one more graph, i'll explode.
saw loads of primary school friends and ex-seniors at lot 1. feels funny, especially when you havent seen them for a really long time. :D
yuren's going to sing WU DING (YAY!) for chinese new year with some girl. lol. and he asked me to play the piano part which he found. hope it isnt a badly composed one, or else i would have to modify it like mad.
okay, i changed my mind. i dont really want a nokia 3230. i want any phone which looks nice, has bluetooth, mp3 and camera function. FUSSY. asked dad. he said " wait for next phone to be released. "
o jeepers.
i presume that 'next phone' will be some really bulky nokia phone with more than enough functions for me. eww.
was reading some people's blogs. just dont understand why they want to blame a teacher for punishing them whether its not doing homework or being rude. and yet they still dare to say "why we get caught, and the rest all who also did the same never." then they go on ranting about that teacher. tsk. so immature. i mean, why dont you think that its just your luck that you happen to get caught by the teacher instead of going on and on about it. if the teacher were to catch someone else, i'm sure the person would have thought the same, "why am i caught?" so yeah. just count yourself unlucky alright. and stop complaining.
ok. whatever.
TODAY IS THE 16TH.
4 more days till me and elaine get our I/Cs! (:
Sunday, January 15, 2006
11:45 PM

nathasha and hayati came over later on to do their emaths at my house. gosh. hayati ah, tskk. teach her dunno how long still commit all those careless mistakes. lol. o well. she's a lot like me, maybe i was worse in sec 3. haha. x)
i've got to finish drawing up my desk calender and book diary for all my birthday and contacts. :D

10:57 PM
i know what are feelings.its only today, which i realised i'm sharing the exact same feelings, as the girl who sits beside me during chinese class. confusion, miserable, silently happy, cut-off, all the different emotions. thoughts that you want it, but you just cant have it. instead, you get an alternate route, a route you never know when it will end. the road just seems to get longer. then you start thinking to yourself, why is my life like that? and all the questions start pouring in. sad to say, not every question has a proper answer. and so you struggle, think, and ponder. you write down your thoughts everywhere. but where's the answer?
ok. COOL IT BABY.
hmm. think i just spent the whole of today slacking, while other people are chionging o levels already. boo to rebecca.
dad brought me and cheryl out for shopping and dinner. got a new RED (chinese new year!, eww?) converse tee (which comes with a HORRIBLE METALLIC converse pencilbox) and a couple of new files and loads of colour pens. plus signed up for popular membership card.
but. couldnt find any nice looking long sleeved white-button-up shirt. sigh. went to bossini, seiyu and almost to fond hugs, for unknown reasons. dad says we should have gone to METRO. boo.
dinner at suki sushi. for once we ate ala carte, except for dad, and the bill came up to $60. which is like, damn wrong. forget it, we'll stick to set meals next time. tsk. waste money! ):
wanted to watch The Heirloom. but dad said no horror shows at night, especially with ahem, cheryl around. hoho. SCARED! ok. i'm the meanest sister on earth.
chenyang didnt tell me i had to help out at the restaurant today. argh. i'm SO going to leave a bad impression on the manager. and i hate leaving badddd impressions. yeah. )):
i want the nokia 3230. hinted dad to that. hope i get it by tomorrow. (:
ok, i know, i'm raising my hopes way too high. HAHA. :D

i fell asleep in physics the second time today, and yes, was caught again. i cant help it. when my right brain doesnt work, the lesson gets boring, and i sleep! boo. o well. thats a stupid excuse. tsk.seating arrangement changed AGAIN today, at least its by mrchen. so now i'm beside siti, second last row, also in front of weida and zeting (greatttt). heh. (:
i shall take this chance to laugh at elaine. cause i think she will be reading this post.
ELAINE IS SITTING WITH ZHUCHENG!
what a joke. ;DDD
elaine, TAG!
--- sec one cca orientation!!!! ---
band street was quite a success. especially for the 'sign the card' thing. it was like, some band carnival? haha. but a job well done to the Orientation Committee. ((:
haha. i love the sec ones! naughty, but daring and willing to learn. where to find this type of sec 1s?! N-ICE. (:
oh. the alumni people who came. sarah was the only non-joseph's-batch person and i really appreciated her for coming. lol. but its really stupid. cause i stare at some of joseph's batch people and i go, WHO'S THIS for half an hour. imagine if its people who are after their batch. hur.
go on. complain, gossip, and then call and talk to me then and say we'r not making effort to call you all and say you all have studies then. pathetic. tsk. SUE ME.
conducted the band for A Huntingdon Celebration and Copacabana. huntindon was like, only just there. the audience seems to prefer Copacabana more, maybe cause its sounds familiar. haha. mr lim came after everything. like. err.
having a hard time adapting to the new changes which mr lim just taught me ytd. about strokes, new technique, bouncing and everything. wonder how long i'll take. boo.
o yeah. thanks yuren for supporting me. nice godbrother i have there. (:
YAY. ITS A SATURDAY TOMORROW.

11:53 PM
i'm FREEZING.should have brought my jacket along to school today. was so close to stoning during recess. brr.
i still dont understand whatever depreciation thing for POA. and yet ms merduati's giving us a test next week. zz.
and she changed our seating arrangment. so our class has changed for at least 3 times already and its only the 2nd week of school. i'm now in between lewis and boonchong. dont really mind. except that why almost every single teacher (except for mr chen/mr tan kk) like to change our seating arrangement w/o even asking our form teacher or co-form, which is duh, mr chen and mr tan kk. blahs. mr chen's face was like damn black when he saw how we were newly seated can? grr.
physics test on all sec 3 topics next week. like what could be more fun. hurhur.
band was mostly combine for tomorrow's performance. a whole group of sec 1s came and some of us went out to introduce ourselves and play with them cause mr lim asked us to. played the scissors paper stone and some 'honey can you smile' game. sec 1s seemed to like it. (:
dont mind me saying this. but i think people who give excuses especially "i have a lot of homework today" sound the most pathetic. not that i'm pointing anyone out, because i'm not. just happened to have this random thought. maybe its unfair for me to say that cause i dont usually have or even do any homework, but it still applies to the same concept and all, doesnt it?
what if everyone was preparing for war? are you going to say something like, "i have a lot of homework today" or worse, "i'm just so lazy"? ok. whatever.
orientation tomorrow. simply cant wait. :D
do scroll down okay. i have my new list of 'wants' and stuff like that.
God please help me learn.

10:54 PM
oh nuts. it wouldnt stop raining.i love my class when we do PE around the field (:
attention. i still have no idea what ms merduati is jabbering on and on about. geez. maybe i should consider dropping POA, just like yvonne is. after all, what do i have to lose? eight minus one subject. hoho.
ok i'm kidding. i havent even thought about it yet.
took sectionals today cause i'm conducting the band on friday. so sad, i cant play. sob. o well. was rather strict with my sectionals, and the outcome? Huntingdon Celebration turned out to be better than expected. cause they knew how to count, breathe and react accordingly.
DUH. CLARINETS ROCK. :D
o well. i will never like pieces like these and stuff like alvamar overture that sort of thing again. just realised people like to LISTEN and PLAY these 'type' of pieces, but actually you'r not really learning. cause the melody just goes to the upper woodwinds and trumpets and the rest slack like mad, even the 2nd and 3rd clarinets. and did i mention the melody just keeps repeating with the same notes and rythmns? boo.
jiahui, thomas and nathasha dropped by my house after band. and cheryl's friend from regent (sec 1) was at my house, and that friend went "ITS THOMAS!" or something. SEE. HEAD PREFECTS ARE SO POPULAR. :DD
violin lesson went to waste. i was staring at the notes and my fingers werent moving properly. instead, the notes turned to bite size cookies and i was like HUH?! uh oh.
i still owe english compo (have to complete it), dnt page one and physics TYS (chapt 7 and 12). oh great.
LALALALALALA. I LOVE MYSELF. (:

i'm working, for my VERY first time.went to help out at chenyang's working place at The Warren country club for today. turned out its a restaurant, and by rights, i was supposed to be a waitress, and chenyang, a bartender.
but since i have NO experience on ANYTHING (i'm so spoilt, i know, i cant even pour tea! sob.), i became bartender. chenyang got kicked out from his 'job' for the first time. HAHA. /points
went back to help out again at night. this time the asst. manager gave us some lessons on serving people and stuff like that. and it was REALLY fun cause i get to flip cloths and lay out dishes. (:
for being 'under training', i still can earn 5 bucks an hour. cool. i mean, yah, those who are not 'under training' definitely will get more. but i dont really care. i dont even know what to do with my earned money now. LOL.
we've got to speak and use chinese in the restaurant. and i was suffering big time cause whenever they told me something, i wont understand a thing. like even for words like bowl and tray and plate, they have some REALLY 'chim' chinese word for them. o gosh.
one point. they were like 'tang shi' and i kept giving out the chopsticks. ARGH.
I MUST IMPROVE MY CHINESE. I MUST, I WILL, I CAN OKAY! ):
there's this jc guy working with us who really looks/acts like wenkai. hmm.
everyone was saying that i learned faster than chenyang when HE joined. HA. girls rock more than guys. :D
and that place rocks. everyone is just so nice and funny. and bubbly. (:
so i'm expected to go back there again a few days before chinese new year to help out, i dont mind. and siying will be working alongside me. HOW FUN! TWO CLARINETISTS WORKING TODAY! :DDDD
siying, if you'r reading this, kill me.
I JUST REALISED I DIDNT HAND UP MY HISTORY ON MONDAY. sigh. there goes my few ca1 marks which i 'wrote so hard and long' for.
got something out from my sister's saved file. its her p6 male classmate who is wooing after another girl. so young, but already wanting to go steady. and the male classmate wrote this,
i study,study and more study,
i wanted to achieve her expectations
she said that she wanna marry a rich guy in her blog
so i wanna ba the rich guy
when i first saw her expectations,
i was so dishearted,
i totalli lost my confidence
i didn't noe wad to do at that time
i ALMOST cried,
i thought she didn't love me anymore
so i study,study and even more study everyday,
juz to get to her expectations.
awww. sweet right? PRIMARY SIX YOU KNOW. but come to think of it, the girl seems a bit materialistic. o well. i dont know.
i havent done my english compo. UH OH.

first ever cme lesson was so, un-cme. err. right.was supposed to teach hayati on history and social studies. turned out she didnt bring her history book, and social studies wasnt even taught to her yet. so much for asking me to teach her. LOL.
so taught hayati a bit of her emaths on completing the square, since seriously i think i cant do anything else other than that, my maths suck. and. she's just like me when i was in sec 3, haha. just keep getting maths messed up. /grins
HAYATI. MISS BEH ROCKS MORE THAN MS TAN!
ok i'm biased. ha. i love MY Emaths teacher. not HAYATI'S.
got my DnT o levels question paper. so cool. :D
tomorrow's a PUBLIC HOLIDAY.
HOO-RAH!

went to the esplanade with yuting, zeting, charles, suhaila and zhenjun. the whole raffles linkway was so quiet, mainly cause we were so early. i guess. is 11am early?after choosing so many scores, we realised we couldnt photocopy them as to top up charles's card, we needed like, $20. which is a bit, crazy. therefore, next week, me, zhenjun and charles are gonna become members of the esplanade. how exciting. :DD
esplanade's polar's chicken pie looks weird. i bet it tastes weird too. hmph. i'm still with LOT ONE.
i wanted to eat mcdonald. and zeting didnt want to, cause "come all the way here to eat mcdonald?"
fine. so charles decided pastamania (of course, suhaila couldnt eat, tisnt halal)!
and zeting went into mcdonalds.
-.-"
not that he disliked it or anything. but ya.
sob. charles, yuting and zeting are such stress pushers cause they wanted me to call him by something, sweeter. and i'm like. must i?!
stress right? TSK.
pretzels are nice. and i introduced the sour cream and onion flavour to suhaila. bet she liked it alot too. HA. :D
walked around suntec till we reached TOYS 'R' US. and we all became KIDS. all snatching all those toys and playing, and squeezing, and driving, and whatever.
EXCOS ARE CHILDISH.
LOL.
ok whatever.
its already almost 10:30 and i have 4 more history essays, english composition , math homework and POA homework to finish by today. crap. bye.

had to go to teck whye secondary for cheryl's CCA orientation. all the cca performing arts group performed, and the emcee (who was a teacher) was like, i dont know, a bit, too braggy? fake bragging? i dont know.its like they make so much fuss of a silver award till it becomes THE PRESTIGIOUS SILVER AWARD.
woah.
ok whatever babe.
their band played some pieces, noticed one ex-lasallian. mabel. didnt know she switched to oboe. cool.
then their dance groups. i really like their indian dance. maybe cause regent doesnt have it. malay dance was just there. the chinese dance the britney spears modern type, so i was super not used to it. different school, different styles.
their chinese orchestra was up next. and i must say, i'm impressed. their conducter is really a 'motivater', anyone and everyone could tell. loads of ex-lasallians too. surprised.
so the sec 1s came in and had their little initation ceremony thing. pretty cool, i wished regent had one like this too. they had this cheering competition, and my sister's class was surprisingly loud. and tough too. lol.
had to wait in the canteen with dad for like. dont know how long till we got bored and explored the school. by lift. haha. cheryl's floor is on the SIXTH floor. no wonder the complaints. /grins
so cheryl's confused for her ccas now. i dont blame her. the school councillors brought her class around to look at every single cca and they have to make choices like the PSLE ones, SIX. poor her.
took her friend's car home. and her friend, li ting asked me whether should she choose band or Chinese orchestra. and i told her CO. sue me all band mates, i'm a band major yet i'm doing this, but hey, she was going 'ER HU! ER HU!', i couldnt possibly tell her ER HU is a BAND instrument, can i?
TSK.
rebecca is not a liar. ((:
conclusion: rebecca is the greatest living thing on earth.

did some chemistry experiments. its like super fang bian, cause the chemistry lab is like, RIGHT NEXT to my class. ah. the joys of being in an out-casted classroom. i guess.mr chen is SO ready to blow his cool.
went for my first MEP o levels class for the year with mengyi. acs boys have changed a lot. lol. anyway, almost half the class was late cause everyone had orientation, well, almost. mr lee is so cool headed this year, something is wrong. ha.
my music textbook plus some $8 thing costs up to $70! o my. like, what kind of a textbook is this. hur. actually, its not even a textbook. just a big conducter's score on some orchestra works. think we'r supposed to learn score reading.
like i dont get enough of it in band.
QUIT BRAGGING ABOUT YOUR BAND REBECCA.
ho hum. i love regent band so much. (:

my head hurts. ouch. ):got back our physics project results. my group got the highest. and i'm proud of it cause its a 18/20. :D
we spent a lot of time talking about the ages of teachers today during social studies. like, wow?
i fell asleep in POA again. my right side of the brain wasnt functioning. hur.
band was fun today. i hope i managed to educate the sec 2s at least even by a little, they'r really too slow already. at this rate, any sec 1 can catch up. sigh. ok. but hey. we must have faith in them. (:
took huntingdon with the band for awhile till mr lim came. and it was fun. (:
and finally in class we got to join our tables. in twos. i dont get to sit with a girl. no choice. at least its boon ping who is quiet and all. not that i'm choosy or anything.
victor is nice. he asked for the regent clarinetists (those who went to hk) to celebrate his bday with him too. how sw-eet. (:

walked to school with exit buddy #3. LOL. siti. (:
i know this sounds stupid. but i'm EXCITED for the o levels. like i cant wait to do the paper. LOL. ok. typical me. /grins
the new principal is really, long winded. but whatever she says really makes a lot of sense to me. maybe cause its related to the books i've been reading nowadays. o well. i dont know.
holy marcaroni. my class is in the HISTORY ROOM. so its like extra extra big. woo. awesome.
form teacher's mr chen. co-form mr tan kk. somehow i find that mr tan isnt really that bad, he even got the tape for the whiteboard for us. how nice.
and i'm sitting with one of the boys' full clique. o my. behind me, chenyang and weida. beside (or rather, across), is boonping. infront, chunjie and jackson. yes. its the same old people i was sitting with last year. good heavens. /rolls eyes
i aint chairperson anymore. BEN is. lol. and pingguang's vice chairperson. not that i'm against it or anything. its turning to be a joke in class, especially among the boys. carolyn's treasurer cause i nominated her. haha. and i'm in for decorative. HA. i get to do the notice boards with the girls. YAY! :D
5 periods of DnT. gosh. i would have died. until i found out the newly reonvated DnT room has AIRCON. all right baby! x)
and i'm starting to suck at drawing. sigh. someone kill me. i know i've just got to more in more effort and stare harder at the model paper. and practice more. lol.
assembly switched to tuesday. o joy. a lot of things definitely had changed with this new principal.
hope mdm tan will do well at her new school. (:
band was mostly sectionals. mr lim wouldnt stop going on about the 'sec 4s going soon' and i was like, so upset. zz. i dont want to leave. and we'r NOT going SOON. we shall go for OPUS III and everything. OH YES WE WILL. :D
o yah. i cant stop calling the sec 2s 'sec 1s' and sec 3s 'sec 2s' during band warm ups. its not my fault they responded ! HAHA.
got into a big big quarrel with my dad. and my handphone's gone. rather, confiscated. GREAT. the last time it was confiscated was like, in p6. boo.

was supposed to have a white kies outing. but poor gillian wasnt allowed out, and hayati and i didnt want to go to ORCHARD, so it is then, POSTPONED. lol.ended up watching THE DARK at lot one with hayati. darren and ben (err. not my class ones.) "happened" to be there, somehow. so we ended up moving about after the show.
THE DARK has almost the same body as THE RING. zz.
went home. hayati and ben came over. watched LILO & STITCH and THE INCREDIBLES. and yes, i like these shows. hur.
both of them were so nice to do my 'clearing of papers from my desk and filing them up' for me while i sorted the papers. aww. (:

11:39 PM
HAPPY NEW YEAR o well. it doesnt feel like its 2006. just feels like any other day. how dull.
i spent my day fruitfully, in my opinion, that is. i polished my Eb clarinet! ha. and now its shining like never before. still have some small little spots but ah, shall continue tomorrow. /grins
my sister is so spoilt. she cant handle things herself. fancy her having to resort to borrowing her friend's uniform for her first day of sec 1 cause she didnt go and buy earlier before. God. why cant she just wear her primary school uniform? because she's scared of losing face? gee. i would have smack her ass if it was the last thing i was free to do.
its 8:46pm. shall go and clear up the rest of my study room. and think of new year resolutions, kind of slow, but whatever okay, its the thinking and doing that matters to me.
i'm officially 15+ years old. wooo.
fast eh. ah. wonderful 2005. cant bear to leave it behind me. what ever i was, student conducter, band major, class chairperson, its all in 2005. will definitely miss those days in 2005. i just have been reading people's blogs and i realised that almost everyone's doing reflections. except me. o well. i'll do it in my new diary. and in the lazy way. shall type, print and PASTE. ha. sw-eet. (:
just read charles's review on 2005. the important dates part. wow. i almost cried. SYF and all. its gone. ):
ok.
happy 2006 :DDD
