I believe I was pretty stuck up. Sorry. But I really didn't mean to call the other group failures, just those two *coughbadexcuseforthemalegendercough*. Anyway, Please please please do not freak out saying "HOMG BACKSTREET BOYS EMO" after hearing the song (or reading the song particulars if you have no half-a-brain to listen to radio/friends). I was a BSB fan once. Once! Not anymore, since they're all old. Ehhh, but okay, I suppose they still got it in them, no croaky or squeaky voices when getting to the high-pitched parts. No guy has ever amused me to go that high without 1) faking it or 2) going horribly off-key.

ISP was such a DRAG without min. Get well soon kay? =D

For maths.. we went to our old cabin classrooms. Not the one we used to be though, but where 401 used to occupy. Anyway, it STINKS. Not the lesson, the class - literally. Sorry if any 4T2 people come across this.. but the class smelt of vomit on rotting wood, then getting the pile of wood + puke spray painted and having kerosene poured over it, and for the final touch, lighting it on fire and burning it. Yeeeouch! *pinches nose*

SS with Emily Tang was uhhh, considerably sleep-inducing. With her droning and monotonous voice, it was soporific to hear her rambling on and on and for once even though I seemed to understand the lesson.. I was practically nodding off to sleep.

Then there was uh, Chemistry, which I thank thank thank THANK God for letting Ms Chow teach us. She's SO nice! =) She gave us an overview on acids, which I felt I understood way more now. And Yin tells me Ms Chiang is going to teach titration next Chem lesson. GREAT. I don't even think I understand 1/2 of her lessons, let alone titration lessons..

During recess, something happened. I won't exactly name it, lest it aggravates anything (I don't wanna be another Mr Chan). Anyway, it's nobody's fault. It was a misunderstanding, and although I only have to say that it wasn't very nice of people to accuse Yin like that, and Yin, be strong! You'll always have us. We love you - no wait, well.. at least Kaili does to the extent of treating you like a spouse, haha.

Literature.. was okay. We did uh, falconry. Although I have no fackin clue as to what the heck it has to do with lit, but I suppose the new introduction of words was able to keep me awake, somewhat.

During English, it was nothing but yadda-yadda-yadda-yaaaaaddaah. Ms Chong should stop trying to pick me for her questions (what, is it her dang passion to repeat the words "Gloria"?!), and walk the other way. Yeesh, not like I'm a magnet. *sees min and others start stifling laughter*

.... Okay fiiine fine. Thank heavens, the next English lesson is taught by Mrs Hoe. Woot! o/

Woot. The start of the scary exams are here.

Just had my Chinese O level today, and meh, I couldn't care less. I mean, I tried my best, no point getting all sulky about it, ne? Thank God I woke my sister up for a dictionary, I wouldn't know what to do if I didn't have one - considering I refer to it every 5 seconds. XD

I got a bit of confidence inside, thanks to Xinhan, Yanliang, Zhihui, Yindi, Kaili, Jiamin and the teacher for teaching me. I got to write out 'yi yan yi bi zhi' and 'wo du guo zhe ce xing wen hou, you ru gu gen zai hou, bu tu bu kuai'. \o/ (Yes, just in case you see this and go "WTF, so easy also dunno..", shut the hell up. You've no idea how hard it is for me to try and memorise this shit.)

In the examination hall, this malay guy to my right kept shaking his leg, and since the hall has wooden floor planks.. it kept vibrating to my table and I couln't concentrate. *shakes angry fist* Then the guy to my left.. (yes, guy) had this.. Little Bobdog pencilbox. I stared, and stared, and laughed. I mean, okaaay if he has an infatuation for that cute animated dog.. but uh, pencilbox? Whatevv.

Alls well that ends well, I guess. I certainly hope I pass this exam (a B4 would be perfect though), then I can focus on my other subjects.

Today... Andy looked like TARE GINJI!! *hears Noel squealing somewhere distant* He looks like some chibi character out of an anime. Oh cmon, I'm not trying to take the mickey outta him - it's true! Although his face was swollen and looked like he was suffering from mumps (I was assured it wasn't), he looked really pinchable. =3

Also, today was Meet-the-Parents day today. Nothing much, a lot of laughing - and Min and I didn't mind the long talk since.. we got to see the cute guy!!!

Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha -

*gets hit on the head*

Ouc - oh, sorry. He was cute still, anyway. XD Min and I kept stealing glances to our left, and we were just looking at him and this has to be the most attentive Meet-the-Parents session I ever had, haha.
Anyhoo, we also watched a snippet of that Woman of Valor for Chinese Opera this year. I couldn't help but laugh at Mu Gua, who looks very much like Zhiping, just cuter. He was real funny though, more like a real actor. Can't wait to watch.. Ohwell, 3 formal events this year. Mu Gui Ying, 45th anniversary, and Prom Night!! *throws head back and laughs evilly*

Min's guardian is so cute! Mr Lim (that his name?) gave her 2 books to read, one of which being Dan Brown's 'Deception Point', which I found nice, albeit predictable, but scientific, nonetheless. I want a guardian too... I want Mrs Hoe or Mr Peacock! =P

Another futile attempt at getting my cat to take her medicine. A scene of hissing, growling and hysterical meows and blur of claws and paws were present, as well as the many humans afraid of it. =_= I'd rather they just leave it alone and add the medicine in her drink or something.

I gave absolutely no attention to Tom Chan's lesson today. He was talking on about reflections and stress. Like he isn't give us more than we need already. He obviously saw I was angry (did my childish temper acts), and came over to my table and addressed me accordingly.

Mr Chan: "Gloria, you okay?"
Me: *shakes head*
Mr Chan: "What's wrong?"
Me: *shakes head*
Mr Chan: "You sad?"
Me: What the hell..? *shakes head*
Mr Chan: "Depressed?"
Me: *looks up and gives "wtf you take me for?" face, and settles to shaking head*
Min: "She's okay lah.."
Mr Chan: "Why are you being so antagonistic today?"
Min: "She's.. uhm, thinking of what to write.."
Me: *gives a reproachful look to Min, stifles laughter and goes back to shaking head*
Min: *looks like she's about to say something, then goes back to writing*
Mr Chan: *scrutinises our faces of any sign of anger* "You sure you're okay?"
Me: *shak - nods head instead*

When he finally left my table to address someone at the door, Min suddenly said "I wanted to tell him 'Go away la!'". Haha, thanks girl! *hug* I was actually on the verge of tears.. but I know I'm not supposed to, I had to learn to stop myself from crying everytime I had to speak with someone personally. (Yes, that's my weakness. I can't talk to someone face to face trying to hurt, rebuke, provoke or rebel them without crying. v_v) I took a deep breath, wiped away the tears I almost cried, and said to Min, "why on Earth did you say 'I was thinking of something to write'? I wanted to laugh so much you know? Haha.." Thank God I didn't break out in tears when he 'interrogated' me one-on-one after lessons. I learnt to take in deep breaths, and I actually told him reflections were merely lies.. lies that people come up with, and hand up to make the teachers happy. He told me to look at the bigger picture, but I still think it only adds on to stress, and more lying.

By the way, I'm really bent on doing something for July 16th, too bad I think I can't take MC that day.. I'm addicted to Harry Potter now. Thank heavens I finished that Order of the Phoenix book (re-read since I forgot storyline), or else I wouldn't be ready for the Half-Blood Prince! XP

Anyway, I skipped ISP today, considering the horrible experience I had yesterday.. Was supposed to have Mathematics lessons from Jerrold, but considering he isn't back yet, bah - I'll go do the assignments myself, and shun bian file up my History. I still don't understand why Mr Tan picked me among the other more eligible people to have their files checked. I bet my bottom dollar it's because he just wants to pick another row with me. =/

PS: If you've noticed, I changed blog layout design (again!), thanks to Noel's choice of colour, uh. Anyhoo, didn't take me much effort, but yaahh I need to find new brushes, my photoshop is rusty without inspiration and new brushes! D: *makes note to self to find grunge brushes in the DeathNote book, for if I don't.. I'll write my own name and have a heart attack within 40 seconds of writing. XD* (If you don't understand.. you obviously haven't read DeathNote before.

AAAAAAAAAAHHH that reminds me. Must go visit Kinokuniya again. When I have the moolah. Itekimasu! o/

I am not interested in Tom Chan's or anyone's blabberings anymore. I don't CARE if I pass or fail my exams. He doesn't realise that what he does merely adds on to our already fully-loaded stress level. WHY do I have to sit here and listen to him nag on and on and on? I am trying; the whole class is trying. I am not going to "waver and drift away from my goal" because I WILL achieve my goal. I did mine last year (by luck, o'course), and this year there's no excuse, either. I have my determination. I just need time - not more stress than what we need and what you teachers always seem to hand out like freebies for kiasu Singaporeans to grab.

DON'T say to our faces that you are "willing to give up holidays to do ISP (Intensive Study Programme)" with us. We don't NEED your pity, we don't want you to "sacrifice" and "GIVE UP" your "family time" for us. Don't you DARE make yourself into some emotionally blackmail freak, and don't make it seem like it's OUR fault you can't spend good ol' family time and have to do ISP with us. Do we look any less willing than you?! Trying to make us feel guilty.. pui! I just hate people when they resort to making themselves look like that.

Chinese ISP today was okay - other than that biatch behind Jiamin and Zhihui making such a racket. Many times they've turned around, and so have I. That slut's laugh makes my blood curdle and probably even coagulate, and make me want to puke it all out. At the end of the session, we glared at her, and I exclaimed "Ta ma de.. Next time session like this I might as well not come. Ka na sai, chao si ren! (So loud to the extent of waking up the dead)"

I suppose she figured (and about damn time, too) we were really mad with her.. for she was the 1st to dash out even though we were occupying the middle aisle. Biatch, I hate express-streamed people that think they are so good, that they can flaunt their so-called intelligence and make pompous remarks. If all they intend to do is make damn noise in the room during ISP, might as well NOT COME! My God, even I went without noise (and yes, shut up.. my going to ISP is not a "jing si", I want a B3/4 for Chinese okay?) and getting ticked off while listening to the teacher. Wah KAO, the teacher also doesn't have to yell in the microphone ma, not like she teaching for the 1st time. If she wants silence, just use reverse psychology la.. shut up, then just wait for everyone else to "zhi dong" keep quiet as well! Man, you people need students to teach teachers how to shut students up..

But okay, the ISP was pretty fine. I learnt some stuff thanks to Yindi (thanks! =D), and was able to read without much of pausing every now and then. Feel pretty proud of it. =P

By the way, I need new songs... Gomen if you actually could tell this is Ayumi's
"Evolution" without guessing twice; I am stuck for songs since I listen to the radio more. I can't put "Feel Good Inc" or "Hollaback Girl" either; I've put them for a pretty long time. But I still can't lose my addiction for this song.. so unless you give me more Ayumi songs (or others.. no chinese though! XD), you'll have to hear the same mundane, boring and dull lala songs.

Today was so funny in class. You can surely expect something hilarious always with Mrs Chiu around. A hornet (yes, those insects that fly) flew into the class, and got all of us distracted....

.... because Baqir was sprawled on the floor, holding his jacket over his head screaming. For heaven's sake, he's a man and he's more afraid of the hornet than it probably is of him! (Well, I can't say much.. I screamed too myself =_=;) However, it was pretty funny to watch Baqir get all squirmy and uneasy, and doing frequent "whoa!" or "wah!" sounds.
At the end of it...

Mrs Chiu: "Okay let's get back to lesson - eh, where's Baqir?"
Baqir: *peeks out from under Nasri's table*
*roars of laughter emerge from class*

Baqir is so silly when it comes to flying insects. XD

By the way, Dad and Mum returned home from Batam yesterday... and they brought some yumyums and *drum roll* I got to watch Star Wars Ep3! Nyahahahaha.. Yoda kicked SO much butt! X3

My turn to have a review!
On the whole, the graphics and sound effects are definitely awesome. Those who don't watch Star Wars at all would even get a gist of how the story went about, although I still have no idea Padme (that her name?) had twins until Yanliang told me. v_v; Yoda looks so much cuter, and R2 is definitely as funny as ever. Nothing much on C-3P0, he didn't work on his lingual side this time. The fights were really engaged and heated, although never really lasted long. But it's still well-timed to give you enough suspense, and relief when the good guys get away.

As usual, I cried. But only once, mind you. Who would like to see Jedis being killed, especially the younglings?! ;_; But yeah, I hope I didn't spoil anything.. If you haven't watched, WHAT TEH FECK ARE YOU DOING READING THIS?! Go and watch!

Anyhoo, since my dad taught me photography (and I learnt Photoshop myself -

*conscience slips in*
Hem, hem..

Oh heck, FINE! I learnt tips and tricks from other friends. But mostly from myself and my sister.. >_>

Anyway. Since Daddy's photo shots weren't that perfect, I made it perfecto. Righto. Don't diss; I like the way the colours turned out! (If you got any sense of slightest art, that is..) =]

Was such a busy day yesterday! x_x;

Woke up at 0600 thanks to my daddy's alarm clock (silly left it on even though he's overseas) and had to get up to his room to switch it off. My sister didn't even notice it was ringing. TT^TT

Then I tried to go back to sleep for a good 2 hours, but failed to do so, so I just roamed around the house and did some cooking before we went to church.

After church, we went to IMM with my godparents to have lunch. Then I went to my aunt's house while my sister went to some wedding. Of course, being in my aunt's house would mean... shopping!! ^^

So yeah, we shopped all over, and homgz, the dressing room's size is fking spacious. It was almost like my room! Just filled.. with a lot of mirrors. Yeah, now that I look at it, the dressing room is almost as big as my own room. Damn. But yeah, Celest and I bought a few bras and other stuff. Hooray for matching items. XD

After that, Celest and I went to Kinokuniya (we got lost for a while). I saw SHELVES FULL of Japanese comics, INCLUDING Bleach!! HOMGZ. I'm so going to go and buy the artbooks if they have. I couldn't make Celest stay since it'd be pretty bad of me. So we walked along, and I saw more shelves of music scores! Piano, but heck, any instrument can play the melody can le lah.. I want it so bad! Not that I can play the piano like expert, but.. wouldn't it be cool to keep some? ._.

Then I left ah yi and Celest because uncle Ming came to fetch them, while Farhan and Jie came to take me home. We went to Swensen's while I just sat there asking them about smoking habits. You know, if I really become a journalist, I'll make a full-time review on smoking and what people that don't smoke think about it, what's wrong and good with them thinking like that, inquire of the feelings of smokers, the how's and why's.. of course include the lame "smoking-kills-you" part, and end it with a neutral one. Not a negative or positive to smoking, but just neutral. No hurting of both sides, even though I know I'll really never ever ever smoke. You people may now call it a habit, but even though I've been offered, been around, dieing slowly and unconsciously with smokers, their main reason of being social smokers is that "it's a habit. Once someone else lights it up, you'll start to, as well. When you're walking alone, I just light it up because I have nothing else to do." So yeah, I'm used to walking by myself - why would I need something else to accompany me? My future 'documentary' would be slightly contradictory of my own statements, but I think I'll be able to work on it. I think. I need a better grasp on my English before I get to work on journalism, though. ^^"

But anyway, I had a fun trip. I await more shopping trips!! \o/

PS: Me want to watch this!

Min,

You have your side of your story, I have mine. Whatever we saw might have been a misunderstanding. Whichever. You know I never cared about what those selfish people think - just that they want to do what they please and indulge in temporary pleasures, getting away with it with feeble excuses and putting the blame on other people. I despite these sort of people, and you don't have to speak up for them. I know I was never liked in the class for my arrogance and stupidity. But I never cared. I was used, mistreated, mocked.. you might've realised, you might have not. The agony of smiling it away for 5 years - I've had enough. If other people have been outcasts and can live it that way, I don't want to be lied to anymore. I don't want people to take pity and make it worse. If I have to, I might as well stay out of everyone's path and find someone equally arrogant, stupid and like me, a klutz. No one lives happily alone, you know that. As heart-wrenched as I am typing this, I wish to express my point of view. I hate none of you, but if you bear a single grudge, I'll never step in your path again. I hate trying to "hong" angry people. I despite people who use their anger to make others scared. When I asked, I actually asked you nicely. You were the one with the grim face.

I had enough then.

Everytime I got angry, I told myself to let it go and smile the fuck away because I know everyone thinks I suck already. I hate lying to everyone with a fake smile, being all "cheery" and "optimistic". I have had enough. Now you see the cowardly, puny, and sad side of me. The one who hides alone to cry. The one that never ceases to get all pessimistic and prefer a solitary life. If it pleases you to know, I was never someone who can talk. You've seen my timid and introverted side. That - is the side I've always tried to hide and put up a brave front with. My alter ego is prominent, what you have seen for over 4 years. I will not speak to any of you, since all you do is promote more coldness, and I will do so as well. I do not initiate, and since neither party will, this will never work out.

You've seen it from my point of view now.

I don't choose friends, because if I do, I know in their hearts all I see is pity. I don't need more of that. I don't want any of that - all I ask is for true friendship. Indeed, you've given me some of that and more; but the choice of talking is not mine. Because I know it's awkward to just talk to you again. I know how you'll react. What's the point of doing so if all I'll end up with is looking even more pitiful and dumber? I thank you for the 4 years of friendship. But if my solitary life doesn't affect you, I don't see why I can't try to live my life that way. Xie le.

In case I forgot to inform ya'll... my parents have gone overseas. v_v There's only me, my sister, and wee wittle Sabbath-chan. X3

Right now, I'm rummaging for my old primary school tie. Someone gave me a very good idea. COSPLAY!!! *glomps shui-sama* He so looks like Kyo Sohma from Fruits Basket!! Kyaa, I know I should show you the pic, but nyaaa (beg me and I shall >3). He's so damn kawaiiiiii!! Anyway, he did a cosplay of himself as Draco Malfoy, and he looks SO like Malfoy, just more.. Japanese. He got this Slytherin logo from eBay (I didn't know they sold that!), and he made his own robes. I looked at the tie - and I thought of my own primary school tie, which is also green and white.

So when Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince opens in 16th July, prepare to see a female Slytherin witch!! Nyahahahaha.

*SPLOSH!!* (wet water)

Of course, mum would forbid me to do so. -_- Since I can't get the Slytherin badge off eBay (no CC/DC either v_V), this ebil plot shall be carried out in a later time.

*throws head back and laughs with pure malice*

In future, if I don't work HERE, I won't work anywhere else. HYA!

I want to walk/drive by every morning and smile to myself knowing I got a job here. So long as not janitor laaaaah. It's either journalist or photographer, yup! ^^v

Anyway, here's a Star Wars ep3 review I got off a friend (relax, no spoilers included here. If you want I'll ask for some. >3)

"So anyways, i as soon as i arrived, i spotted a bunch of kids with lightsabers. How shocking. Now, im not gonna be a hypocritical bastard and judge these kids because they do that. If they are happy and don't bother me, it's all good to me. Carry on. The one funny thing was a jedi with a big-ass robe and a purse. Had i not seen the purse, i wouldve thought that it was a dude

So finally at 12am they start sitting us. This is the first time i was there that they actually checked tickets. I was never surrounded by so many people talking about Star Wars. Fortunately i was close to a group of kids who were pointing out and joking about the weird things and bad acting that took place in the last 2 episodes (1 and 2). They were pretty funny at times.

So finally the movie starts, and insteaf of boring you as hell with a very detailed review........im gonna be as quick as i can.

It hasnt even been 12 hours since i saw the movie, so the excitement may not have worn off yet, but i think this movie is right up there with the Empire Strikes Back. But then again, i thought that episode 2 was good and 2 weeks later i realized that it wasnt as good as i thought.

Now, im not gonna pretend that it needed to be flawless. My favorite movies have a lot of errors and things to work on, but there is no such things as a flawless movie in my book.

Granted, the FX and directinv were very well done. But the problem was.....the acting. However, i realized one thing. It's not the actors. It may be Lucas. After seeing Natalie Portman in many movies like Garden State and Closer, i have to believe that she was required to suck in this movie

A little bit of digging helped me believe in this further. For the 1977 movie, Harrison Ford (who played the coolest character in all 6 movies) told George Lucas: "look George, you can write this shit, but you can't say it." I think the same problem may be taking place in the first 3 episodes.

That aside, i enjoyed the movie greatly. They showed much more Yoda ass-kicking, more fighting, more FX, great directing. The only downside was the dialogue, which i dont blame on the actors (except maybe for Hayden, who still does a much better job than i'd be able to do). Do i recommend it? Absolutely. Did i feel like a complete geek when standing in line surrounded by Star Wars talk and light sabers? Not really."

This so gives me the urge to watch it as well. XD

How about you take whatever you said and apply it to yourself?

Kya anyway, we had a heart-to-heart talk with the principal today. I didn't want to talk about results laaah, I want to talk about the school!! Dangit, so much things to complain. *brandishes crumpled piece of paper with all sorts of whatchumacallits written* We so need a water cooler/fountain thingy on the 4th floor; they biased or something?! ;_;

Anyhoo, I bought my 3rd DeathNote book, and re-borrowed that Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. I forgot what the ending was like... I guess I'm getting the gist of it again, since I started going on crazy-book mode and already am at the 200th page. XD

Well, Jerrold was asking me about local writers. Me, being that "EEEEWW" person when it comes to local stuff, has totally changed my mind when I learnt that Colin Cheong, the writer of The Stolen Child (featuring Wings [yeah that guy in the "blue book"]) was local, and is the current GP tutor of his. He was a journalist at the age of 15 (Secondary 3) by sneaking into an artiste's room backstage and getting a sneak interview. Like hell, JOURNALIST!! He rocks my damn fragrant (honest!) socks. His interview is such.. motivation! *wipes tear from eye*

If you are addressing a group of aspiring writers now, what is the one vital message you would convey to them?

[Colin Cheong]:
Stand up and live before you sit down to write (Thoreau, I think). Then write honestly in a voice that is yours. Write regularly. Make time for it. Read a lot (no limits). Think a lot. Dream a lot. Then just have the guts to do it, never mind what anybody else says about you, your writing, or your dream of being a writer. And remember that in the act of writing, you are a writer and no one can take that away from you.

This - my friends, is what I call THE Singapore Idol. Well, mine at least. LOL! Damn, what I would give to work for Straits Times or something. ;___; And before you answer, Aliman.. No, I will not give lesbian sheckz or any form of it*! D:

Yah yah it's all my fault kay? All my fault. =)

Anyway, skipped chinese remedial to go buy books. Chap 1 & 2 of DeathNote, and that Naruto book I wanted. *throws head back and laughs evillyyy.

Nothing much else.. Noel reminded me of something.

mакuвеX says:
drowning, burning and freezing to death = worse ever

Now that I think about it, I actually have almost drowned once.
I remember I was in some other country for holiday with my family, and I was only a younger child then. But still, I was pretty okay with water and could hold breaths for over 30 seconds a time.

We waded over to the wave pool, and as the "rain" and "waves" started coming in, there was much excitement, and since I was only a kid, I felt the float slipping off me, because it was much too big. Before I knew it, I started drifting away from my parents, due to my kicking and attempting to climb higher on the float. I had no water-wings, float or whatever, because my parents were able to see where I was going, and they probably thought I was having fun..

Until I slipped into the water, and was already in the deep side of the pool where it would be around 1.7m deep. (Even if I was to go there now, I still might drown since it's 15 cm over my head v_v)
Anyway, I remembered that when/if you are drowning and have no strength to kick up, just hold your breath and let yourself float down, to kick yourself back up later. When I did so, and my foot touched the ground, I felt a sharp pain on my foot, and realised that it was sharp rocks, and it hurt really bad - so letting myself kick back up was not an option.

Now was the time to really panic. I had no goggles on, and when I opened my eyes, everything was murky and a blur. I stretched out my arm in attempt to catch anyone's leg, but I was probably just wasting my energy. Finally, before I gave up, I was wondering if I would die at this age, and asked God why he wanted me up there so fast. Just then, I felt hands grip around my elbow and pull me upwards.

Haha, Daddy finally found me.
*heaves sigh of relief* Yeah, if it wasn't for him, I don't think I would've ever lived to this day. Err, or maybe to some people the idea of my exsistance would be disastrous, and I would've been better off dead. Right?

I think I need to seek help, although taking remedial from Shen lao shi would be pretty uh, awkward. Never in my life have I ever bothered with Chinese vocab.. if I tried now, it's like learning and perfecting French at 62 when you lived all your life in China speaking only mandarin. Kinda exaggerated, but whatever - I am at a loss. I can't possibly stuff in 5 years' worth of Chinese into me, and NO I won't regret. I'll either buck up in Chinese or Humanities. Those two are my prioritised problems, since they're both F9 subjects.

I can't work on Humanities, since Tiger practically hates me to the core, and loathes my work attitude despite honest efforts. And attempts at Mandarin is futile, or at least it'll end up that way. I don't know. Maybe I'll work something out soon. Thank God mathematics is settled; I got Jerrold to teach me every Thursday, of which he assures me an A for O's! Haha, I know it's impossible, but the impossible happens.. meaning that if I do get an distinction or at least, enter NP's Mass Comm, I'll give him a biiig treat. =P Besides, he can consider that a late bday pressie. *nudgenudge* Well, at least I'm not that disheartened about English, since he claimed he got a C6 for Mid-years too, and emerged with an A2 for O's. Convincing, but VS' standard of English is so high compared to us; moreover we're N(A)! Sigh. v__v;

Nothing else happened much in school, just that I don't think it's going to go right again.

Imagine if I had never said that.

Wouldn't someone ELSE have done so?
Wouldn't she have realised we LIED?

Well, if I didn't all this bullshit wouldn't have happened.
Even if I did, so what? You want me to apologise and tell her to go away? I thought you found nothing wrong with her lessons so I asked her to stay on. Is that request that ridiculous?!

You handed me something and expected me to know what I was to do with it? Or do you want a Grammy Award? I have to put up with that "no, not mine, don't ask me lah. who ask you go call the teacher" attitude and face? WOW, THANKS FOR THE BIG SLAM HINT!

Try being in someone else's shoes.
If someone hands you something reluctantly, then walks off.. of course you'd make nothing of it. When you ask, he just stares at you in the eye with loath and tells you "not my prob, you settle it yourself lah!"

How spiffy is that.

Angry? I would call it sheer confusion and irritability. Who in the world would not feel pissed when you see someone totally ignore you when you ask nicely? Who in blazing HELL could withstand such big hints when you've got an expression like "shut up la, who ask you do this in the 1st place".

Not like I care.

Not like YOU care.

Point is - if you really never did care, why bother to be friends and blatantly lie to me, getting angry over something I'm still oblivious about? Whichever. If you're happy that way, I'm fine with that. Last thing I need is to make someone angry or upset over something silly like this. You're happy, I'm good with that. Happy?

N-16 ahead; read only if you're not subject to audacities and obscenities.

Can EVERYONE stop bitching at me!? 1st it's teachers that make themselves look so honourable that they're going through fire and hell for us, and they had a bad childhood.. and so on. All that talk will end up in US having a bad childhood, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
Then it's my own SISTER. What, she can make herself look like she's always hurt. REALITY CHECK, have you ever cried for someone ELSE? Have you ever made someone's day BETTER? And not taking things for GRANTED? You do, and always will, damn it! I can't believe I cried for you. I can't believe you smoke. I can't believe you anymore, damn it. There's no fucking person in this damn world to trust anymore.
HAPPY NOW, GOD? You made my life hell, because I made it hell for others before. My retribution now, HAPPY? Everyone hates me, and I don't give a fucking rats ass. I hate everyone to the fucking core. Call me a hater, call me insane - I want to get out of this asylum they all call "school", and the sooner the fucking better!! If the people in here are sane, I certainly won't be if I go on.

FUCK THIS. ALL OF THIS.

Jeez, talk about animal premonitions.

In my room, I was sitting down browsing around DeviantART when my whole world started to shake. Literally.

I stared at my monitor, and felt like it was being tossed in waves, but only ever-so-lightly. I held my reclining chair in shock, and actually felt tremors. I screamed out for God (and broke another damn commandment -_-), and wondered what the hell was going on. After a gruelling 5 seconds of shaking, I held on tight to my chair to see if it went on, or if a tsunami would just strike us. (but uh, I'm 15 storeys up anyway. o_o) Freaked out, I dashed into the living room.

Me: "DADDY! Omigawd, did you feel that?!"
Dad: *looks up from work* "Feel what?"
Me: "... no tremors in the living room?"
Dad: "Uh. No. Don't worry, there are no.. *goes on blah-blah mode with Earth plates and crusts*"
Me: *sneaks back to room while talking*

So now, after around 45 mins or so when I told my dad..

Dad: "Gloria..."
Me: *comes out to living room* "Yes?"
Dad: *points to tv*
Me: *looks*
Dad: "You were right.. Earthquake hit Indonesia, 6.9 on the Richter scale."
Me: "I told you so, I told you so!"

Damn it, Sabbath didn't even feel anything. I bet she won't even wake up if there's a Tsunami, let alone an earthquake, that lazy cat.. D:

Talked about it with friends online, and Wei expressed his thoughts on 6km tsunamis.

Anyway, when I finished browsing DeviantART, I saw this flash deviation that would change my mind about Linkin'park, and go find out wth DeathNote is - even if it's yaoi (I admit I've taken a liking to yaoi since being in DA.. :evillaugh:)

Anyway, after watching this particular flash.. it made me (and NOEL, har!) want to listen to LP and uhhh... scream. And of course, it makes me want to find out who teh hell Raito/L is from DeathNote. I've seen the comics, and now I'm tempted to buy. BWAHAHA!

Oh. Right, the flash. Here it is.

Friday the 13th!
OMG black cat! IN THE HOUSE!

.... Wait, that's just Sabbath. XD

Anyway, Yindi, Jiamin, and me went shopping yesterday to celebrate the end of mid-years.
Well, it started out as us, at least. We went around looking for Cineleisure, and we got LOST. Hahah! We had to ask for directions in the end.. v_v; Was so funny though, now min owes Yin and I a sweet! Hahaha, j/k. Was a really fun walk though. XD
When we realised the others had already left Cine and went to Wisma instead, we went to eat (well, at least I did.. then they followed suit XD) at BK in Far East. I only realised that there are only some Buddhists that cannot eat beef. Kewl, I learn something new whenever I go out with them - about food, haha.

Anyway, after we were done, we met up with Qian Nan, Zhihui and Kaili, and went on a shopping spree! GIRL POWAAAAH! o/ Sadly, I didn't glance much at the shops since they all were.. uhh.. those lian stuff one. And you know very well I do not step into those shops, let alone patronise v_v; Yes, I am just that picky. Only shop I looked into was 37 deg, and realised I needed a new bag/shorts/shirt. Dang, when I go to work (probably never, seeing I'm just that lazy) I'll have to stock up on clothes for poly.
Qian Nan bought this pink belt, a bracelet, ring, and a top, I believe. Kaili bought a skirt (I think), same bracelet as Qian Nan, and earrings. Yindi didn't buy the shirt.. did she? Not sure x_x; Jiamin bought these earrings, of which you can say I helped to decide, haha. Only Zhihui and I didn't buy anything. XD
After what seemed like eternity, we settled down and bought drinks from 7-eleven.. where I downed a 500ml bottle of mineral water in a gulp. What, I was thisty! Lol.
We then sat down at the stairs waiting for the guys, when an ambulance arrived.

Kaili: "Eh my transport come le, baibai~~" *walks toward ambulance*
Us: *laughs insanely*
Security: "Uh, cannot go there, girl."
Kaili: *walks back laughing*

Kaili is just SO damn cute. X3

We then walked inside Far East, looking for Andy, Xinhan, Hanwei, and Eugene. We went up to the 4th floor, when two floors below was already ground floor. o_o Or whatever, I'm still confuzzled. Anyway, when we couldn't find them, I got pretty pissed since they are making us ladies and gentlemen *coughcoughhaha* wait.

Me: "Wah lao.." *points at Yanliang* "Ba wo jiao Andy chu lai leh!" (Get Andy out here leh!)
Junhao: "AAANNDYYYY LIAAAANNGG!!!!"

*silence*

US: "QIAN DA AH!!" ('tis means the poor bloke will get whalloped. =D)
/me watches as Junhao gets bashed by us girls and guys.

Moreover, I didn't ask Junhao to really shout Andy's name.. v_v And I wasn't referring to him! HOMGZ, can you imagine the people staring while he shouted... and got beaten up after,haha. That is one seriously dumb BAKA.

When we had to go, Qian Nan, Jiamin, Yindi, Junhao, Xinhan took some other bus, while we walked further to take 190.

We waited....

and waited....

Talked about Naruto (nothing on Sasuke/Itachi, zz ._.)..
Gundam (I still think if it was Athrun x Kira then it's nice LOL)..
RK (Eugene hasn't tried a taste of Andy's "Gatotsu", haha)..

and finally decided to take a cab.

We walked further up, where we saw so many cabs being on hire.

Andy: "Aiyah, come la come la I fetch you home" *walks over to motorcycle and attempts to sit on it*
Us: "Haha, siao."
Andy: *walks back and pretends nothing happened, and continues looking out for taxis*
*Man comes walking in, and starts up the motorbike*
Me: "Eh Andy, bu shi yao tou zhe ge motor de lor.." (Didn't you want to steal this bike?)
Andy: "Eh? No laah, I lend him the key one. Let him try lor.."
Us: *falls over laughing*

We walked further down, where it would've been better off if Yanliang told me we would walk home via PIE. I'd still kill him if he really did say that though. >_>
So yeah, it was Zhihui, Eugene, Xinhan, Yanliang, Andy and I roaming the streets in a futile attempt to look for an unoccupied taxi. When after a LONG (and I mean long) walk and waving of arms.. there was ONE! YAY!

Andy: "Aiyah, ni men xian qu la." (Aiyah, you all go 1st la)

Never knew Andy was a gentleman. *coughcoughhahacough*
So Zhihui, Hanwei and I got in the cab, because we lived around the same neighbourhood. After -finally- reaching home, I sms'd Kaili to tell her I got home safely and thanked her for being so considerate. Oh - I inculded a kisskiss at the back, so Yindi, don't be mad that I kissed your laogong!! *cowers and hides behind an umbrella* Wait - Kaili already has an affair with Qian Nan.. Zhi Hui.. and OHNOES! We're all becoming lesbo!

But yah, I pretty much enjoyed it. Just no more techno. NO MORE!!

Just reached home, while half the class is doing their PoA paper. Jiayou, last paper le, later go celebrate kay? ^^;

Sigh, the reason why I don't really like to go out is because..

I don't like to shop.

*hears gasps around*
What, I just don't like to spend my time looking at things and I can't buy them. Especially if they're nice. Sorry if I gave that "wtf" face when you mentioned This Fashion.. I really can't stand those places because many people just uh, fight to get in when there's a sale, just because it's cheaper.

I believe in 'Quality > Quantity', actually. I don't see a wrong in going to This Fashion; I just find it awkward to say something like "YAY CHEAP!" and no, that doesn't mean I buy only expensive stuff, I don't want to spend my cash on something cheap and regret not saving up for something nice but slighty more costly. I'm not trying to avoid this outing, don't worry. I know it's cool to go out today since it is the end of our mid-years after all. Daijoubu, wakkate iru yo. ^^

Hmm, I think I'll go catch a nap. Don't want to be falling asleep, heh.

Went to school for about 3 hours, and came back.. and fell asleep. Seriously, I didn't really care for the MT paper 2 today. Even Kaili was kinda stunned.

Me: *gives paper to invigilator*
Kaili: *hands up paper as well*
Me: *leans back a little*
Kaili: "Eh, Gloria.. you left it all blank!?"
Me: "Yah. Don't know how mah."
Kaili: *speechless*

Then, kudos to some silly fool, my bookmark landed on the floor with a "clink" as it fell behind the tables.

Great, how'm I to get it with this stupid crowd..
*walks off angrily*

... eventually min helped me get it. BAH I feel like such an idiot. Stupid me, how could I have not seen the big GAP FOR ME TO TAKE THE SILLY METAL THING. >_>

Congratulations Gloria Chua for winning the '05 IDIOT of the Damn Year Award!

*dashes center-stage to grab floppy-looking statuette and give acknowledgements*

And wid that, I'd like to thank all my hoes and homies, bitches included yeah. I'd also like to shout out to mah lil ray ray, on the east side. (We did it baby! =*)

Today was.. Emaths p2 and CME. Was okay, I actually found p2 easy! Other than the 1st two questions, of which I probably lost around 9 marks there. XD But the transformations and graphs were almost as easy as hell, just that I spent too much time so my freehand graphline looks rather cacat ('retarded' in malay [correct me if I'm wrong plx~]).

CME..................... Was a pure waste of time laaah. Finished it in 5 minutes, and I was in a futile attempt to draw the guy beside me. But I couldn't look sideways lest they thought I was cheating (in a CME exam, yaaahhh wtf >_>). Sorry lah. I think he's cute, that's all.. Even though he irritates me a lot during exams by writing so much. -_- Thank GOD he didn't do that for maths, or I'd never finish it thanks to him stressin me out.

Anyhoo, I forgot to mention that MRS HOE IS BAACCCK!!! <3<3<3
We missed her SO SO SO much! Heh, min and I talked about her being back yesterday.

Me: "I tell you, when I come back after graduating during March next year.. 1st person I'll hug is Mrs Hoe."
Min: "Yaya, me too!"
Me: "... then I'll be the 1st to cry too, as always, haha."
*silence*
Min: "Eh no.. You must hug me 1st!"
Me: *doink* "Okay lor, haha!"

But yah, think about it; we've been in this school for almost 5 years. 4 and a half, to be more exact (well, almost). What changes have we had?

Secondary One:
- 1st day of school, we were locked in our own classroom, kudos to Nicholas that prankster. (And still hasn't changed. Much. XD)
- Josline/Fa'izah locked in the toilet cubicle and we saved her with a 20-cent coin. \o/ We the Cool and Chilvarous Cubicle Coin Catastrophe Cynosure!
- Everyone loved Tom Chan.

Secondary Two:
- We lost Eileen, Jie Ying, Kai Xian, Josline and Erene due to lateral transferring to the Express classes.
- 5 people down, 35 left.
- Then came in Clayton, Yao Zhong, William, Han Wei, Xin Han, Izwan, Xiao Juan, Huda, Nazeera, and Tommy >_>
- 35 + 10 = 45
- And with that.. we moved to a air-conditioned cabin classroom!

Secondary Three:
- Imran left to the express stream, and Qian Nan joined us.
- 45 - 1 + 1 = 45
- So we still stayed in the cabins as the largest class of BPGHS' history.
- Tom Chan still being form teacher.

Secondary Four:
- Class enrolment still the same, and stuck in the cabins. ^^
- We formed the invincible four; Jiamin, Yindi, Zhihui and me! XD
- Mugged CRAZY for N Prelims, and ended up with nothing.
- Got caught for Friendster defamation, which lasted pretty long.
- Slacked for N level..
- But we did it! =)

Secondary Five:
- We've grown attached to Tom Chan, and now he's more of a father, since he is a father now, anyway.
- Lost many people: Clayton, Huda, Nazeera, Izwan, Izzat, Yao Zhong, and Tommy.
- Total enrolment dropped, resulting in returning to the classroom blocks.
- Kenneth having sleeping disorders, and having him the alias of a "part-time student"
- He withdrew from Mid-years, expected to as well for Prelims and O's.
- .... May the story end in a happy one.

Our five years together shall be one heck of a memorable story; I want a "and they lived happily ever after" for us. 5A, jiayou. =)

I was blog-hopping when I came across a blog of a.. teacher. That's right, ladies and gentlemen, a teacher. When I read her blog, I realised how teachers are secretly suffering and actually trying their best to help us. I now deeply regret rebuking Ms Ong, and actually making her cry. Well, despite the fact that her teaching methods weren't really successful thus resulting in the disability to having the students to comprehend. Well, if any teachers read this..

Please please please don't start sueing me for defamatory actions (again -_-) but instead, look on the bright side. Some students DO understand. You just have to think like a student. Like they say, if you can't beat em, join em. That's what students look for in a teacher. No "hey no don't do this and that", but instead, "hey, lets do this.. just don't let the principal know! hehe". Well, yeah it's somewhat wrong.. but the traditional method really doesn't work anymore.

Ah okay, I realise I've written way too much. Again. XD Will stop here.

Okay, please kill me if you find the lyrics for this song.
Letssingit doesn't want to let me find any, and I'm lazy to search anywhere else. Reason why I like this song: it's a song that you can play on a convertible while crusing the expressways. With your hunny holding your hand (so long as he still has the other on the steering wheel, that is XD) and it's such a laid back song. So Aliman, before you comment on "ZOMG WEIRDASS/EMO/WTFISTHIS SONG LOLOLOZLDASDAXc *goes insane*".... uh, hush. D: Don't spoil my "happy-riding-in-a-car" song.

Anyway, I'm SO DAMN SORRY I DIDN'T GET ON MY BLOG TO WISH EVERY MOTHER A HAPPY MOTHERS' DAY!!

I didn't get my mum a gift.. but daddy did! Hehehe.
No, no typical flowers. He brought us up to Mount Faber, and made us...

... LOOK AT HIS PHOTO IN THE NEW SAFRA BUILDING. =l

Yeah, wtf huh.
But bah. Was kewl anyway, to see my dad in an eating pose. XD I got pissed with the service there, and exclaimed loudly "God, of ALL places to have service charge.. a place where they DON'T give any damn service?!"
Stupid *bleep*s there too. Reminds me of the time I went for cruise.. makes me want to be racist. >_> But since I'm not that sort of person (unlike daddy, har har), I shan't.

Anyway, I just came home from exam, was Biology and History today. Woot.
Bio was such a bitch. Damn, it's considered my 1st time taking up all the time for the exam, when I always tend to finish within 30 minutes or less. XD I can't believe I forgot how to define chromosomes, genes, and alleles! I should'nt have handed my book to Nas, he got them all right! (I think.) But yeah, we're okay lah. Confirm O's get A1 right? *nudges nas* XD

But I still hate the guy beside me!! Grrr. During History, he was doing around 3-5 pages while I stared at my miserable 2 1/2 page work. -_- But I kicked back and relaxed, knowing that writing all that shit for me would do me no good, since all I would write would be pure BS, lol. (In case you don't know what BS is, don't ask.)

Went to Lot1 to top up my farecard, and decided to buy takoyaki and coffee bean. Would be my last one too, I guess (getting damn broke ;_;). And once AGAIN, it was that PISSOFF BITCH tending to the store. I handed my card over to her and she gave me that buay song face; I should've ordered a regular instead of a small to throw it in her face. And I clearly asked for vanilla, and she gave me choc. The fuck - is she DEAF? One of these days, I'll walk up to her and pulverize her butt into shitbits, and disintegrate them in the furnace, while gouging her eyes out and feeding them to Sabbath. BITCH. Sabby might not even want to eat it, for they look like some mutated goldfish eyes that suffers from cataracts.

Now at home, and I don't want to study for emaths p2... ZZZZ. I'll just have to look around for help later, if possible.

And so the Grasshopper Mission shall go on till the culprit is caught! D:

Anyway, I was going around looking for Electrico's Runaway's lyrics.. when I stumbled upon someone who works for CNA! (Just in case you didn't know, I want to be a journalist, hehe.

American Hi-FI - The Geeks Get The Girls

Another Friday night, to get the feeling right
At the bar when he sees her coming over
What you gonna do, if she walks up to you
Tongue tied better get yourself together
Pound another drink, to give him time to think
What's your sign hey I think you know a friend of mine
All the stupid lines, that he had ever heard
Wouldn't come to mind he couldn't say a word

Tonight tonight, he's gonna get it right
Even losers can get lucky sometimes
All the freaks go on a winning streak
In a perfect world, all the geeks get the girls

Got her holding steady, forget her name already
Sweatin' hard not a smooth operator
She's got it going on, dancing to her favorite song
He's got the line is it your place or mine
She turns and walks away, where did he go wrong?
But waiting by the car, she says what took you so long

Tonight tonight, he's gonna get it right
Even losers can get lucky sometimes
All the freaks go on a winning streak
In a perfect world, all the geeks get the girls

The very next day, he guessed she ran away
The one and only in his bed so lonely
But she comes walking in, with coffee and a grin
Crazy as it seems, it wasn't just a dream
And all around the world, people shout it out
The geeks get the girls

Last night he finally got it right
Even losers can get lucky sometimes
All the freaks go on a winning streak
Shout it all around the world cause the geeks get the girls

Power to the geeks! \o/

Today was Lit p1.. Okay lah.

Damn stressed again, since the guy beside me was doing his fast writing again >_> The unseen poem, however, was pretty easy. I didn't do the prose.. since it was something on divorce. I hate those sort of stories. The poem wasn't that nice either; it was something on death. Of a 4-year old brother. Sigh.

Anyway, when I was all done.. that guy beside me was still writing. XD I giggled, chuckled, laughed, gaffawed.. alright, whatever. But I owned him since he was still writing till the last minute.

He knows he stresses me out. XD

Weekends, time to kick back, relax, and enjoy it! =)

Don't mind me being random.. but:

There are several kinds of species that use different nicknames on MSN, and I would like to identify these motherfuc- I mean, different personalities.

We have the pseudophilosophers:

"Mankind is doomed to be the harvester of it's own neo wolf, a wolf that will consume it's own desperation in the vaccuum of it's teleological design *Someone"

The most common choice is Nietzsche, because, as everybody knows, it's cool to quote him (think death metal) even though the closest thing they have to nihilism is not doing their homework because "there's no point".

We also have the current-event nicknames:

"I just bought a dog and it's the cutest thing in hell!!!! I love him like nothing else in the world and will continue to until the big crunch"

They will mention everything that happens in their life on their nickname as they confuse it with their journal. When they sign in you will know they failed a test, someone asked them out and they had a fight with their parents or siblings before starting to chat.

The bestfriends:

"I LUV (H) ANNA!!!! He is the bestestestestest friend in the world!!!!! (A)(B)(C)(D)(E)(F)(G)!!!"

The lowest point is when Anna signs in:

"Ashley is my girl!!! Thank you so much for being there when I need you the most and for healing my wounds when I was hurt"

The I just found out about some characters that are not in my keyboard or I love symbols:

"&&%&%$·$%·$%·$·$LUKAS$"·$·%$%^^*^*¨·Ç"!ÇÇ& %"

And those typical ones, which I find the MOST of being an eye sore.

"DarDarRrz (L) HuNnY! BaoBeI I lOvE yOu, WhY dUnCh EeeUu CaLL mE De.. =(((((("

And how can we forget the lyric nickname;

"In joy and sorrow my heart is in your hands.... (8)(8)(8)(8)"

They never pick obscure lyrics, only popular artists (of course, they will deny they are popular) as they expect you to ask "do you like HIM?? Oh my fucking god, I love them too!".

Uhm, yeah.

Ehe. Heh. Hehhh.

On another note..
PS: New skin! ^3^
Kudos to min's helpful answer on "What colour shall it be?", and it's PINK!

Urge.. to... recite.. grows...

CANNOT. RESIST. TEMPTATION.

/me brandishes Shakespeare book and waves wildly

*ahem*
*cough*

Now.. where shall I start.

Mmm, my favourite paragraph from 'As You Like It'. X3

[III, v, i-27]
Silvius
Sweet Phebe, do not scorn me, do not, Phebe.
Say that you love me not, but say not so
In bitterness. The common executioner,
Whose heart accustomed sight of Death makes hard,
Falls not the axe upon the humbled neck
But first begs pardon: will you sterner be
Than he that dies and lives by bloody drops?

And 'Hamlet', the love letter from the Prince to Ophelia;

[II, ii, ii5-i8]
Doubt thou the stars are fire,
Doubt that the sun doth move.
Doubt truth to be a liar,
But never doubt I love.

Kya, I'm sooo addicted to Literature. ^3^

I miss Mrs Hoe so much. So so so so so SO much! Come back soon, 5A misses you dearly already! ;_;

Today was LitP2 and EmathsP1.
Emaths, as usual.. was a bitch XD
I could not solve many (and I mean MANY problems). By the end of 10 minutes of the paper starting, I was already at question 7 - because I skipped plenty. Lol. At the end of it, I was just so damn glad I could go. D:

During the Lit exam, I actually fumbled for the 1st 20 mins.

*looks right*
Nothing.

*looks left*
OMG he's half a page already!

*dashes for the pen, and zooms with speed-writing*

Anyway, he's an express student, so I find it no surprise. After I was done, I read up their questions on Twelfth Night. It seriously looked familiar.. like tchs' prelim paper, for I clearly remember seeing that part, featuring Fabian and Sir Tony. o_o

Yay. For once, I installed everything necessary in my computer after reformatting. I'm so proud of myself \o/

..... Yes my computer had a virus.

Again.

*ducks back to corner, huddling and rocking back and forth* I'll never do it again.. ._.

Anyhow, I felt that today wasn't necessary to go to school. We did... absolutely nothing. Sheeesh, they should've increased our Labour Day holidays. =P

And since tomorrow is Lit.. I wrote a poem! \o/

The Wandering One

Bloodied and cold,
Through times of old.
Treading through snow while shadows dance on ice,
I fumble.
I howl at the Moon, who grins and moves on.
No one, no body.
Just the wind, embracing me and whispering
Eliciting a moment's joy.

And it withers like a weed, fast-forward in Time.

I sit and I wait for the biting cold to engulf me.
I wish I would never exist,
The pain would desist,
And that my happiness persist.
All are happy, but woe is me.

In the distance,
A man, seemingly wrinkled and weary
Walks to me.
I look him in the eye,
and He in mine.

He sees my conflict, my sadness and woe,
Through lifetimes of anguish, deception and so bold
He blatantly lies, with feral smiles
And the decaying pearls show'n
The flicker in His fiery stare.
And yet,
It seems that He knows.
That Life, although painful..

It is how it goes.

Sunday, woke up early to go to church. Sigh.

The same ol' priest who goes "The Lord be with you....ah". I can't stand it, I have to keep laughing and preventing myself from saying "Amen...ah."

>_>

<_<

But I swear, the morning masses are much, much better than the evening ones. No action bedeh stupid wannabes. And most importantly, a lot more angmohs! ^o^ I saw this little girl, who walks like a hopping little angel, with hair as bright as the sun, and eyes as clear as crystal. She wore the prettiest blue dress, and it complemented her entire appearence.

I swear, I am going to marry a Caucasian whether my mum likes it or not. And he's going to play the piano just to serenade me to sleep.

Hahahahaha.

You keep fuckin' wishing, Gloria Chua. >_>

Anyway, guess who else I saw at church?

*dum dum dum*

PIERRE PNG!
And of course, Andrea de Cruz.

She looked so pretty and fair! But she was a little plump; I suppose that's what marriage does to you. XD But I still found her very pretty.. and Pierre was sooo keewt! *^^* I never noticed her there, until my mum spotted her. (So much for being devoted to masses, huh mum. *poke*)

After parting with Colin, Lynette and Lynette, we headed back home to drive her to Sim Lim, where her attachment was at. We finally had Delifrance, something which I haven't sat down, and had a proper meal at.

We then went to Lucky Plaza, and I swear I am NEVER heading there again on a Sunday. Like HELL, so many Filipinos head there to hang out, and they are outrageously dressed like.. well, typical cheena whores. Thank God we got out of there within the hour, any longer and I might've died from the weird smells. =s

Now I'm sick, and at home. Thank goodness there's no exam on Tuesday, according to Zichun and Jimmy. Might take MC if it gets worse then.
