all-coins day

...as Shuyi has so kindly termed it. XD

I thought I should blog about Monday! best Monday of my life!... but Shuyi has already got most of the relevant details down, so just refer to her blog XP...

Anyway... Monday was a really happy day! Finally went out with my usual Guzheng gang. Shuyi, Shu Hui and Weiyu. Known them for like, three years? and this is the first time we went out. So glad I took the initiative to ask them out, although I went to sleep before I helped plan it... sorry, lao gong...

Haven't been to Suntec in like forever. So glad we went there instead of CINE, TAKA, PS or something. (Though we did go to PS to take Neoprints later...) I never knew there were so many things to see in Suntec. Especially the toy shops! Saw many of those, um, dunno what you call them. Those kind of 'toys' with those mini furniture/food/stuff that you put on display. Er... I don't know how to describe them. Hahaha...

Happiest moments... They were spent at a colourful round seat. We were there twice, first to piece together our toys from the 'slot machine' thingies, next to have our cheap lunches. I really like the four of us sitting together like that. Really feel so relaxed with them (even though I have to speak in Chinese XD).It feels great to be able to laugh at least once every five minutes - whether at childish kids who thought themselves more mature than us, at kids who passed by staring at our actions curiously, or at kids going on the Thomas the Train carousel right next to us, or at the annoying and noisy Thomas the Train carousel itself.

I had to eat kunning fish, chicken drumsticks and wings without a FORK. -_-"

For the first time in my life I spent $4 at an arcade. (Haha, I'm not the arcade type, or rather, most of my friends are not the arcade type). It was very fun though! The percussion set thingy... well, me and Shuyi co-operated until yi tuan zao in Normal mode. XD I trashed everyone at Bishi Bashi (apparently I'm good at retarded games, haha)... and Shuyi and I trashed Weiyu anzd Shu Hui at the music one (though it wasn't exactly a fair match)! sigh... dunno why Weiyu and Shu Hui have so little intereszt in arcading. haa...

(SIDE-TRACKZZz:z MY DADZ HAZDZ BETTER GET THE OTHER LAPTOP FIXED BEFORE I GO BONKERSZZ BECAZZUSE Z POPS UP ALL THE FREAKING TIME.)

The Neoprints! So schweet. Sample:


Too bad we didn't carry out the pose I suggested - the Shus (me, Shuyi, Shu Hui) in front with a pouting Weiyu at the back (cause she's ostracised, she's not a Shu. ahaha.)

Hehehe. Happy day! I love my zheng-er darlings. Still remember the time they all accepted me even though I was from another class (and the only zheng SYF-er from my class.) =) Hope to go out with them again... meeting them today at school again, ahaha~

(I HAD TO DELETE THE **** ONE BY ONE! ARGH.)

urgh.

I just went to a kopitiam in AMK to eat. Anyway, there, I saw a few very disturbing things. Near me there was this family having lunch. Two aunties and two girls younger than me. And among them there was this skinny guy smoking away like nobody's business. -_- Later on, there was this father and son who walked past on. The son was barely nine and the dad was just happily smoking away as he held his son's hand.

wtf?! Okay, I'm probably don't have the right to comment on other people... but I think this is just... bad... My grandpa smokes too, but whenever he smoked he went inside a room and closed the door to do it whenever we all came over to his home. My uncle smoked too, but at least he always went outside to do it.

And then there are these people smoking in front of their loved ones (as if uncles kiao-kaing and hanging out and smoking at kopitiams is not enough). Polluting the lungs of their loved ones... I just think it's weird... I'm sure these smokers also know that what they're doing is harmful. If you can't break out of this addiction, don't drag your kids into it too. Perhaps the kids would be used to alll the fumes after living so long with it, but this's no excuse. You're putting your kids' health in danger - if you don't care about yourself, at least care about your kids.

-_- (and just a little bit of info, my grandpa doesn't smoke anymore.)

update.

I watched GoF the other day and got myself in love with Harry Potter all over again. ^^;;;; GoF is great. I think it's better than PoA, definitely (because PoA sucks.) Hahaha. It was Exceeding Expectations. XD

I've not been out of the house for four/five days. O_O the first timm this year. (maybe.)

I'm worrying myself over whether they will change the actors for Draco Malfoy in the future. I shall CRY if they do. JK Rowling likes the great trio, so I don't think there's a big possibility of them giving up their roles, but Tom Felton is EIGHTEEN already. Waaaah!... if they change him... I will not watch the movies anymore.

(Okay, so I'm exaggerating. I'll never make it. XD)

BUT. Don't you think Tom Felton is perfect for Draco? Don't you think so? I thought so since the first movie.

Oh, yes, I'm lame.

Okay, never mind, on to other things.

What have I done (mainly) over the past few days?

1) Obsess over Tom Felton

2) Do homework (!!!!!! o_O!!!!!)
(Because I don't have much else to do!! So... might as well. I got very demoralized yesterday, though.... Couldn't do a lot of maths questions. Doesn't help that:

ME: *doing Maths dilligently*
DAD: *walking past* HAIYA. Why you doing Maths? Thought I told you to drop? Give up la give up la!
ME: ... *hits 'next' button on MP3 player*
MUM: (translated) Wah, see la, where got pay attention, every few seconds touch your MP3! No wonder your maths grades suck!
ME: Ma, I'm getting the tutor over on Sunday.
MUM: How come? you finished everything already?
ME: ...er, no.
MUM: You should ask her to come when you have prepared alllll the questions you don't know for her.
ME: ...er, I don't know how to do anything.

Then my mom joins in with my dad. URGH. Someone please help me to get that confidence and determination back. I'm losing it all over again.

3) PLAY FF8. (for the what, billionth time?)
But this time's a bit different though. I spent those days where my sister was away (how could you?!!!) alone in my mom's room playing the PS. (Yes, yes, I hear you. A PS is lousy and outdated and old - but - it's the ONLY thing I have - and I'm very content with it, thank you very much. The only thing I gripe about is the serious lack of games to play, so if you have any PS games you don't want because your console is lousy and outdated and old, you could donate them to me. Thanks a lot!)

Anyway, I was levelling up my characters and getting them their best weapons and raising their stats and so on... and so I beat Omega Weapon! the strongest boss in the game!! *GASP* I can't stop gloating. MUAHAHAHAHAAHA.

Okay, I'm very high for reasons unknown even to myself...

I need to go out and get a life soon... Maybe go hit some shuttlecocks. Hahaha. I miss my friends!! hardcorers. Ni & Ying-jie!! Come back soon!!

(And Weiyu and Shuyi, you two will not escape our clutches! WE ARE GOING OUT! hahaha.)

sigh

Yesterday my oldest best friend came over to my place. =) so happppy!!! Though we both ended up STUDYING, of all things. I even TRIED (note: TRIED) to complete my Differentiation II tutorial (which is already an accomplishment in itself!) and she did her LEP stuff. Soooooo chimmyyyy la. LEP is scary!! The Chinese poems are like foreign language to me. Must congrat Shuyi for her greeeeat accomplishment! Wheee! So proud of my hubby lor. Muahaha, I'm sure you're reading this and getting goosebumps. Anyway, after we gave up 'studying' we just hung around and did nothing and crapped and listened to music for 1+++ hour... We ended up NOT doing any of the things we had planned to do, like watch A Moment To Remember... but it was very nice anyway... Just lazing around comfortably with a close friend.

I think we're both more alike than we think. Not just because of the fact that our moms and our parents' interaction styles are pretty similar. I think we're both realists, sort of (if you want to put it across more extreme-ly, you can say we're cynics.). Yeah... we both kind of realized that everything and everyone must change, sooner or later and it's too much to hope that everything can remain just the way it is now. Some people will leave us one day, we both got to accept that fact. We both learnt to accept it and move on. Hmmm... And something you said got me speculating. Dear girl... I hope we will always remain close. If not closer than before! I know I will change and we will change and maybe we won't see each other anymore. But... I hope our friendship will not change. Yeah hunnky! Heee. Thanks for being you. If it weren't for you, I would never have known what a best friend is. Really.

(Oh, and thanks for your uber-long entry on ME, the GREATEST!!!! -_-" I'm so lame.)

My mom was uberly cute today!!! I LOVE my mommy. I really luff her so much sometimes. Today I went to meet her after school and we went to Food Junction to eat (yes, AGAIN!!) And, I ate my beloved... BAN MIAN (yes, AGAIN!!)... yup. I'm obsessive. But ban mian is addictive. Anyway, that's not the point. The point is, I was chit-chatting with her about this sweet wallet-of-my-dreams and she revealed that... her mysterious birthday present for me was... A WALLET! Hahaha... and when we went home she showed it to me. It's very sweet and very pretty, and though it's not 'wallet-of-my-dreams', it's just as good and I love it! Hehe. My mom so you xin lor.

Come to think of it, my mom was never so you xin until this year...

Oh, and now she's walking into the room to inspect my hair. (She likes to do that!!!!! -_-") um, cause I went for a bit of hair-trimming today. (Yes, you won't be able to tell the difference at all. XP) My mom is so cute.

Though some things do NOT change. Like the fact that she likes to scream at us for no reason. Last night she was screaming the house down and, erm, it didn't help that I was already tired and zombified by then. I have to admit, I was the trigger for her latest screaming session. I was sitting there playing SNAKE II even while complaining that I was sleepy and wanted to sleep. She got pissed off by the fact that I tuo-ni-dai-shui-ing! So she started to scold, bringing in EVERY little bad habit of me and my sister that we ever had. Urrrrgh.

其实我不快乐. 其实我很累,你知不知道?

(II'm a horrible person, you might as well kill me now)

muahahahaha

Just came back from school. =)

Just wanna say that I love my guzheng mates, especially the ex-Zhonghuarians. I didn't realize how much I had missed them until today. And I have to say I still love guzheng practices. Even though I get very, very irritated by certain things going on in there. Guzheng practices mean I can see my darlings and be myself and get to crap with them (even if I have to do so in CHINESE... hehe.). I also love playing guzheng with them. Heeee. I can't wait to go out with them! Hope we will one day. -_-"

I also miss the hardcorers. =( I just love being able to be loud and not be reserved and not hold back and to feel that I'm somebody. The past few days without them were so boringggg.

OP is over ~

Today we had our OP... I'm so glad it's all over! My performance was not its best today... I stumbled a bit... haix... but on the whole, I think our group did very very well today! =) I love Girl Power! Mel, Rachel, Ying Hui... couldn't have asked for better teammates. Hehehe...

Mel and Shave ps-ed Rach and Mary and me today la. How can.

But I ate my beloved Marinara! At $6.20!! After starving for like SIX hours though. WHEE~

Just wanna say a final few things... I miss the hardcorers... and I miss my best friends badly. Sometimes, they make me... wonder. And... I love my sister, really... She always manages to perk me up even though she doesn't know it... With her I can laugh and snort and poke fun and mock at everything that's walking on the screen, and she will laugh really unladylikely with me too and we just collapse in our little world of psychodom. I love my mother too, even though she is too intelligent for my own good. I dunno why I did not inherit her intelligence genes, because if I did, I would have been smart enough to realize that she is too intelligent for me to hide anything from her. Finally, I wanna say sorry to someone (you know who you are), and also... thank you.

Anyway, don't bother checking back here anymore. Don't think I will be updating for a while. Even if I do, expect to just see impersonal rubbish. I will close myself up now.

girl power

Hey my dearies.

You all probably wouldn't see this in time, but anyway, I just wanna say...

JIAYOU FOR TOMORROW!

We can get that EE.. and that A! Too bad we didn' try the subliminal perception thingy... hehe...

Anyway first of all I must thank Mel for the beautiful and very touching video for all of us. And to Rachel for her (shockingly nice!! XP) postcard. And to Ying Hui for her sweet testimonial. And to Marilyn for being the invaluable teammate that she is! Mary, I hope you are in peak condition tomorrow!! I hope we all PEAK tomorrow! Yeah!!

It's been a great time with you all. I really enjoyed the times we had together. We had so many problems with our project but we never fought. And we always managed to make every meeting efficient and valuable and even fun at times. We really had fun at Pulau Ubin that unforgettable day.

I am going to miss working with you all. Oh no, I don't want to do PW again (who wants to?!) but I'm so glad you all were my teammates. Through it all, we've now become friends for life. *hugs* So jiayou everyone! Our hard work will pay off. Then we can go and celebrate. Mazybe visit PU (!!!!!) again.

Our six (or so) months together... It all ends tomorrow... That feeling can't really sink in yet. Hehe...
