poem
gosh i haven't blogged in FOREVER! and my life's been a whoole mass of madness. there are so many ups and downs, sometimes separate and sometimes occuring simultaneously. or even at the same time. which is totallu crazy, but true. im just totally tired of this. i mean, im only FREAKIN FOURTEEN (you see, numbers cant be caps locked, so i had to spell out the damn word). why cant i just go back, turn back the clock to when i was P5 or P6. P5 rocked, i went to america which is such a lovely place as a visitor (although i must admit new york was fr-eeeeezing) and P6 was such a slackish year. y'know, minus all the stuff we had to prepare for PSLE. cos after that, we just spent the rest of the year playing cards & doing rubbish siaow stuff. mmmm, sigh. ill do thursday evening onwards cos the morning/afternoon period was pretty boring. just the usual: school, piano, sleeep. ok, so i had a mini sing-along session, but that's still pretty mundane (a fab word i got from desiree's blog!)
so as i was saying, thursday nights i have clown practice. was late (again, sheesh) but wasnt as bad as the past how many weeks. coughcough *shifty eyes* but anyway, next week, i have a short term goal, that is, to get there at 7.25pm. 5 minutes early, 28th sep being a SCHOOL HOLIDAY!!! which i promise myself i will study till my head grows bigger. so anyway, we did the normal practise of songs & then this time, there was a choreographer, to teach us some "moves" to do while we sing.
the choreographer, i recognised, is from prinsep. i remembered him as the one who made the majority of the youth there "awake" and more "alive". (i told pamela this, only i used "revived", and she went, "what? is he God?" and i was like, o-kayyy) so, the moves were pretty ok, nothing to hard-to-learn. very basic stuff with more acting than dancing. im afraid, however, that we may just "steal the limelight" from the clown, though. im playing gossiping family with this tenor called lance (at least i think that's how you spell it) and this soprano woman (i shall HAVE to find out what her name is. hehe) my fave part is when we have to do this really sad scene, where EMOTIONS ARE H-I-G-H! not high as in whoo, im going crazy high, but high as in there are a lot of (sad) emotions "floating about". and it's oh-SO-fun. to be actin like im crying. man, i MISS the drama of acting. shall have to make more home movies with niki-wiki & beiyi, considering.... yah, anyway, after that, we practised the songs a bit more & we were dismissed (sounds so much like school) marilyn decided that we, the choir, need more practice. cos after this, there will hardly be much time to squeeze in "private practices" as a choir, what with all the rehearsals and so on. so, the sopranos, tenors & bass will come early, while the altos will stay back after practice, as many altos cant afford to come earlier (me not one of them. me can come early, just that me am bad at timing). so we stayed back to practise, which was good, cos i cant stop singing "Jesus (He is the Son of God)" now. wahaa. friday: school was ok, but PE was cool! we learnt ... SOCCER! wooooohoo! it was rad. (cant seem to explain what that word means, but i just KNOW what it means. we-ird.) we did passing (which thanks to dance training, i was quite good at. XD), dribbling (none of us could do it properly, but heck it was fun), shooting goals (yes, scored goals both times i tried. (((: ) and then we went against each other.so funny, running after this one ball. it was great to have scored the ONLY GOAL. harh. especially since after that, i was injured. : like, fiona meant to pass me the ball, but she accidentally dug to deep & it flew at me & hit me at the place between my belly button & the place where my ribcage ends (y'know, the ribcage is like a W shape. so the ball hit my smack in the middle of the 'button & the middle of the W) hurt quite a lot at first, and i limped out of the alocatted (honestly, spelling sucks.) area. still hurts a bit now, but only when i hit it, of course. (and no, im NOT using force) then, while i was resting, i saw a bunch of TK guys singing happy birthday. in a circle. around another guy. and after the song ended, they pushed him on the ground & started kicking him. sigh. as beiyi said,
"They might be at the same standard as us now, but they might not act a civilised as us."
(it's mostly along that line of the word of civilised, cant er, remember excatly)
yeah, school was ok after that. but PE made me sooo sweaty. sighh. went home, had lunch, slept on the carpet cos the sofa was (weirdly) too soft. then i went to CBSI. which was where, through one of Glenn's answer, i found the answer to my problem. again nicole, i say sorry. sigh.
last night, or rather, this morning, i slept at 3/4 am. haha, miss doing that. although i must say, i stupidly woke up at 9. ok, so maybe it was my mother's fault for waking me up at 9, but i couldnt go back to sleep after that. my mother went for some seminar in tkgs & my dad left the house at 10 to leave for seri alam. some missions trip. but he'll be back t'morrow. anyway, this morning i watched my taped episode of "Project Runway: Road to the Runway" & thursday's "Singapore Idol" cos i missed out on both. wednesday i was not-so-busily studying & thursday i was at Clown choir prac. and now im blogging, my mother just came back & my brother's bugging me cos (GET THIS) he wants to "check out Audition". Freaky much? oh well, that's Teenage's fault. anyway, my lunch is calling me. but before i go, here's a poem to celebrate life.
MY LIFE:
up and down
down and up
where'r we goin' next?
up and down
down and up
it confuses me
up and down
down and up
where'm I goin next?
up and down
down and up
i'm REALLY SICK OF THIS.
toodle-loodle-loo.

serious stuff
hurmphs, school's started, and i didnt do much during the holidays. how hopeless for me. if i get bad marks, ill know who to blame. myself. duh. ok, im being lame. yeah, so i've been creating a bunch of new msn display pics. it's super-uber fun, ok! monday i created 2 & wednesday i created 3, but the last one's a bit urm, weird. i wont put it up on msn yet. till i do something coool to it. it's plain and weird-ish... anyway, im feeling lame. this somehow is turning out to be a disjointed post even though im not playing neopets. ok, so im doing Photoshop, which is what i use to make my msn DPs. oh & my display pics are part scanned (from nicole's happy scanner) & part photoshopped! im SOOOO glad nicole & beiyi are practically photoshop pros.y'know, everytime i feel like posting "something serious" on my blog, i just give up halfway or blogger screws up or im not sure about posting it. but then, since i dont, this blog's oh-so superficial. im getting real confused. yeah. darn, the com here just went siaoww. i accidetally moved my leg against the wire and the screen went off. the i had to push the plug back in, and when doing that, i saw a flash of light/ electrical spark. i TOTALLY COULDVE DIED. why wasnt my hand nearer there? lol. anyway, back to the serious stuff. or maybe not. i think everyone needs to read a blog without depth. it'd be better to read about me talking fun stuff, no? yeah. but again im confused. ok, now THIS POST is going horribly wrong. i mean, so disjointed. wither my mind;s moving too fast, or it's moving too slow. it's probably the latter. studying, ma deer friends, is DULLING my not-so-great mind. especially with esther, my now school mum, poking me going "STUDY! STUDY! STUDY!" repeat about a gazillion times & maybe you can get how im doin. crap, the bell rung & im gonna leave ya'll with a sucky post. huuuuuurumph.

my hurmphy holidays
well. havent blogged since that super long update on the "Get Lost" Race. but i must say, im REALLY proud of it. i mean WHOA, so long huh? yeah, so my holidays havent excatly been going well. for example, im not following my "schedule". like, im supposed to be studying now & guess what im doin? c'mon guess. duh, blogging. *rolls eyes at myself* so, before my mum comes back from her lunch with aunty taybee, aunty sow mun & aunty susan, i shall blog. anyway, im updating my saddo Poddy.
ok, let's start with friday. 1st september, the official teacher's day. went out with naomi, for our postponed "appointment". we were supposed to meet in june, but we decided to postpone it. so, we were supposed to meet at 11am at Dhoby Ghaut, but unfortunately being a Kang, i was late. but only 10 minutes (but mind you i can be early. its just that...well...), which is better than meeting ruthie. half an hour-ahem,ahem. ANYWAY, so we first went to book our tickets. at first, we were choosing between The Devil Wears Prada, Monster House & Barnyard. in the end, we chose "the devil wears prada"'s 1.30 show. so, we had ample time to eat & flop around. anyway, we went to the toilet first, to streak our hair with my running-out hair mascara. which i didnt know until i checked it, so the purple wasnt too happy nice. sigh, but it still was fun. we decided to eat first, and being a plaza sing tradition for me, we ate at mos. the chicken terriyski burger meal, AS USUAL. then, we took neoprints. oh, forgot to mention, this was naomi's actual first time out alone. her mum actually wanted to meet us at some point, but thank goodness she didnt. naomi told me that she was sondering whether my mum ACTUALLY ALLOWED me to go out on my own. oh, well, protective mums. :Dyeah, this was nayo's 2nd time taking neoprints, so she wasnt very experienced. but, it was still fun. too bad all the pics we chose were all pink backgrounded. which even though is my fave colour, can after a while be a bit gross. so, since we still had time, we decided to buy birthday prezzies for each other. oh, and forgot to mention, Naomi's officially 14! her birthday's 1 sep. so cool huh, every year, her birthday's a school holiday! lucky duck. Naomi chose a piglet embossed mug & i chose this really cute toy. it's like a mystery prize. you kinda chose a box & after buying it, you open it to see what you got. and i got.. a hedgehog! though i would've preferred the chinchilla, or the rabbit, or the hamster. there's also a dog version, but i really wanted the chinchilla. ah well, but it's still squishily cute. no, it's NOT a soft toy, but a figurine. with a little house, with a grass patch & food (2 pieces of corn & 2 jellys). oh & cos her mug was $9.95 and my hedgehog $3.95, she bought me 3 neopets TCGs. (which cost 2 bucks each only!) yeah, and because i chose & she paid, ALL 3 PACKS HAD HOLO CARDS IN EM! we've got the magic touch. i was admiring them big time! ok, so at 1.20, we went in. only to be "entertained" by music & too-loud ads. (especially that super annoying HSBC one) the movie was really nice. i missed the whole movie experience, considering the last movie i watched was Aquamarine? oh crap, i cant even keep track. but something along that line. yeah, then we went to precious thots insearch for one of those joined-together keychains which they have in Kalm's. too bad precious thots didnt have them & i DONT think plaza has Kalms.after that, we walked around a bit more before taking the 14 bus home. which was good & bad. good cos we dont have to change for a bus after the mrt & bad cos urm, there was this couple directly in front of us. they were urm, uh, frenchingfor sometime. and as i mentioned, they were directly infront of us. quite a traumatising experience. i spent most of the bus ride looking out the window as i talked to nayo. coughcough. yeah, went home & rested for a while, then went for CBSI.ok, so saturday was a saddo (fine, i will stop using that word, but it's just oh-so-fun using it. XP) day. reached school at 8.15ish and amazingly, ruth hadnt come yet. but that was cos her alarm didnt ring. see why i use my mum as an alarm? wahaa~ anyway, just to quote her sms "my alarm didnt ring & the house is now havoc city" HARDEE HAR HAR. lol. ok, im going siaow. she (ruth) reached school at around 8.30. her dad sent her. but of course, that was just a waste of petrol for him, cos ms chiam came only at around 9.20ish. so, when she finally opened the studio, guess what? the air-con didnt work. man that sucked. but, the ONLY good thing is that i wasnt asked to dance. in a way, that's bad as well cos, i wasted time going there (to school). oh & for rest-and-relax recess in september. guess what ruth, denise & my jobs are? it's really obvious. c'mon. ok, ill tell. we are gonna be the VERY GLORIFIED TECHNICIANS. COOL HUH? damn, this is WHY I FREAKIN HATE BALLET IN SCHOOL NOW. but at least i must say, on saturday, ms chiam decided not to treat me like her intern & make me her LOSER DJ. oh yeah, and cos the air con didnt work, chloe (ms chiam's spoilt baby) was sweating big time. she smelled (maybe like pee) & her WHOLE HEAD was drenched. like as if she'd just taken a bath & her body was sticky. it was urm, yeah, REALLLLLY GROSS. so, to amuse ourselves, ruth & i continued with our great story. maybe it's better if i DONT elaborate. hehe. so, ballet ended & went home. got to use the com. you see, i DID start a new blog post, but it's just that i was
A) playing neopets, so it was another one of those freaky disjointed posts.
B) playing neopets, so i didnt have time to finish the post. XD
heh. anyway, soon i shall but my petpets that some freakin asshole stole. so maybe it was partly my fault for accidentally leaving my account on at school. but at least my million was still there. but i REALLLLLY wanna get that id. yeah, lunch & then i was so tired (cos i didnt get my full time of sleep), i fell asleep. WRONG MOVE. cos, i was too lazy to get up when my mum called (now, HERE'S the setback)& ended up waking up at 5.05ish. AND, faith factor started at 5. y'see, for the non-kpcians, we were testing out faith factor on saturdays. well, im not too big on the idea though. cos saturdays are for parties [people stay longer cos sunday night is a bit of a rush for brthdays.] and for spending time with your family. yep. so, this is not really encouraging family time together. not that it's excatly great, spending time as a family. its um yeah, never mind. anyway, as many of you dont know, saturday [2nd sept] was my bro's birthday, so here's one for him:
HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY TO MY BROTHER!
yeah, the official age for army even though he's already been in it for quite some time already. my parnets got him a new phone-without camera of course- and it looks really nice & cool. i was amazed motorola still produces phones without cameras, but yeah, they do. lol. yeah. anyway so i missed youth (if that's not obvious enough) {but anyway, i was gonna leave at 6, so if i went there at say, 5.30, it WOULD be kinda weird, no?} so, my brother invited 2 of his friends to the party. Clement and Roy- I THINK. sooo, dinner was a bit mad for me. i had a slice of super supreme pizza & a garlic bread first. then, i went to wrap my own popiah. put in two slices of butterhead lettuce, tons of egg, ground peanuts (y'know the fine thingy) & sweet sauce. was ok at first, then became real messy nearing the end, where some sauce dripped onto me. next, i went to get some rice (3 handle-fulls), sweet-&-sour pork & beef. yummmy, but too bad there wasnt any proper veg, so lettuce basically was all i had for veg that night. oh & i ate one more garlic bread after that. was a bit more than i expected.
then, natsy & i ran up to my room to play Bratz & myscene. {BTW-you are reading a childish person's blog. yes, i AM 14.} after a while, Rachel & Michelle (19 year-old cousins) crashed our RP with Michelle bugging us to play a board game with em. so, i brought down the Bratz board game (yes, there is such a thing. X)) i got from my lovely aunt (who lives in london) & my disney uno. rach, nat & i unanamously (freakay spelllling) voted to play Bratz. i was chole( yes, i was a bit grossed out to find that ms chiam's baby HAD the SAME NAME as my fave Bratz character), nat was jade, rachel yasmin & mich sasha (who's dad accidentally nicknamed as sushi. shall not elaborate.) so, after a bit of a shaky start, cos i forgot some rules, we got into the playing. but anyway, I WON with a great strategy, no less!! HYAHA! rach was next, followed by mich, then poor nat. oh and i forgot to mention, all through the game, mich was complaining about us not playing uno. so, after the Bratz game, we played uno H2O.
we dealt the cards first, then went for the cutting cake. was a fruit cake, with tons of mango & kiwi, and very minimal strawberries. sigh. so, then when we'd all finished our cakes, we started the game. we changed the rules a bit, like we dealt 10 cards each player & michelle taught us the intercept method. it's hard for slow players like me to get along with, cos i like my deck to be neat after every time i take a card out. and with the intercept method, you gotta be fast.
then, when everyone went home, my mother & i watched "Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood"-which was supposed to be comercial-free, but at some point, they forgot. but glitch aside, it was a nice movie. with a nice storyline, but the southern accent got a bit irksome sometimes. cos i couldnt really understand. yeah, that ended at 12 ish & i went to sleep at 1ish.
ok, my mother is back & she's screamin at me to get off. hurmph, at least i got to blog! waha! tooodliedooos~
