i have a recent obsession with green. *nods firmly* actually green is a nice colour. very nice, if i do say so. my bag is green. i have taste. so there. no one can challenge this statement. if they do, i'll... i'll... i'll flatten them with my giant green brocolli.

the physics teacher grates on my nerves. useless person. bah. today, after mr. tang left for pract, she came in and was like... "i'll give you a break." we took a class excursion to the toilet and loitered around in the corridors for so long, it was amazing she hadn't noticed her missing class could be reported to the police for to start a search. i peeked into the lab. and there she was, sitting under the bright fluorescent lights, looking totally serene and at ease with her missing class... reading a book, which i suspect have nothing to do with physics. really. but our class is still ahead of schedule, i think. according to her lah. not a really very reliable source, if you ask me.

cross-country orientation run today was cancelled. yay. i think our rain song worked. that's the ever-effective rain-song composed by our very much beloved and rather missed sempai. hm. it's a great song. earned the gumi the title of "the ghosts of the haunted dictionary". after all, our singing then was like a ghost's wail... now it sounds like a whale's song.

but we deviate from the topic.

apart from the fact that i took the wrong bus twice, alighted at the wrong stop once, waited half an hour for the wrong bus, did a titration that was suspiciously wrong, recieved lousy marks for a previous titration exercise, to day was fine. really.

hm.

after school was more "interesting", i'd guess. on the bus, at the bus interchange, at causeway point. everywhere i see PDA. that's public display of affection, not personal digital assistant [though i'd like to see the teahcers' faces if i ever wrote that in a computing paper]. i mean. puh-lease, get a room. it's bad enough seeing a pimpled face snogging with another on the escalator. it's worse seeing teenagers making out on the bus [and not even at the back seats]. it's disgracing to see students clad in full school uniforms hanging over each other. i mean. there was this girl in school u, at the bus-interchange, who had her legs draped over a boy's leg [which was, incidentally clad in school pants], the thighs dangerously close to the turning point of the maximum curve between a guy's legs, and her skirt riding obscenely high on her not-so well-toned legs. not to mention that her legs didn't look very light. it hurts to even type a complain out about it.

just made me think about the PDA talk we got in sec three. or mybe, it's just me being over-conservative. in sec three, i'd draw the line below holding hands. currently, maybe AT holding hands. this is public that we're talking about. save the rest for the bushes man.

then i reached the destination of Causeway Point. hm... retreived my handphone. was checking out the nokia download stations for a "lose yourself" ringtone, of which the version was awesome, but didn't find it. instead, i found laputa castle in the sky. which is better. haha. currently my default ringtone. like it a lot a lot.

then i have the orientation hike tomorrow at pulau ubin. team name: OBELIX!!! so damn cute. haha, i like obelix. he's so cute and simple-minded, like never paranoid. that must be nice. hm. i haven't packed. haha, though i do look forward to being one of the rare ones to come back without a tan. haha, my 130 spf sunblock got me through OBS. hopefully it gets me through OH. but then, the seniors refused to allow me to hike in track pants. or long-sleeved shirts. haiz. but i'm bringing them along anyway. the nights are freezing. look forward to it so much so much. but its only one night lah. haha.

hm, then it's gonna be a long weekend for me again. monday is elearning, tuesday is doc's appointment. i seem to be doing a lot of long weekends lately. humph. not a good sign. though not necessarily un-enjoyable. haha.

been writing and replying to the three gumi pple in RJ. the three of us in HC, that is. hm... meishi is constantly missing emily. that must be comforting for emily. to know that you are not forgotten. i wonder, if i had been the only gumi member in HC or any JC for that matter, would i still receive postcards from the rest? or will i just be an impression left in their minds of their secondary school years, like a fading picture. hm...

suffering from a very bad stomach ache... must be something wrong that i ate this morning. maybe it's coz i slept late again last night. or maybe i just caught "wind". or maybe it's all my imagination. freaking tired. the notion of school kinda tires me. and it's only been the second full week of tutorials and the third full week of school [ie. minus the CNY week].

the next debate is up next tuesday and we won't be having anymore GP lessons til then. the new motion is "THBT compensations should be made for injustices done by previous generations." we are the opposition. hm... not debating for this one. the other three pple in the team are. that is, lydia, eunice and chia yee, our girl power team. haha.

typing this in the library. the keyboard's space bar... and all other keys, are damn loud and loose and the keyboard is on a table that's way too high. so making quite a lot of noise, or so i think. haha. they should invest in those silent keyboards. or put a "silencer" on the keyboards. haha, maybe a damper beneath the keys.

oh... and the enter key is louder than the space bar.

monday is e-learning DAY. miss those e-learning WEEKS. haha. hm, so i'm camping in front of the TV to watch the 46th Grammy Awards live in the morning, then doing work, then maybe going back to PeiYing to see mrs. tan. saw rui feng that day. wah, he nv change at all, maybe could control his mouth a little so he doesn't drool that much. well, just realised peng ming, transformed from model-head-prefect-male-chauvinistic boy to joker-in-school-who-plays-truant, according to rui feng... tsk tsk. and mrs. tan still keeps in mind his perfect image... kinda sad.. every time we go back to peiying, mrs. tan would always be asking, "will peng ming come? he's very busy with school work ah. when will he reach?" it's always peng ming, peng ming, peng ming. or jia juan, jia juan, jia juan. feel kinda sad that she just cease to notice that we're the ones going back and they are the ones who don't. hm. maybe peng ming does, lah. but still. haiz. it's a kind of mixed feeling lah. i have this gut feeling mrs. tan will be sorely disappointed in them.

hm. haven't finished reading underwater light 16... it's nice thus far. can sense some draco/harry action building up. haha. stomach hurts. so many things to think about, so much to do and so little time.






"a little piece of paper with a picture drawn, floats on down the street til the wind is gone. and the memory now is like the picture was then; when the paper's crumpled up it can't be perfect again."

oh... i forgot to mention something...

sometime last wek, huijie, jiacheng, weeleong and i got caught playing bridge in school... then the teacher was like a horse. like got blinders on. you know, it covers the side of the horse's eyes, so it only sees what is ahead of it. so sucky. i mean, two other classes around us were playing cards and he only took OUR names down for CS... then that DM pang peng cheong person. sent us for CS and said that Uncle Sam [that's our CT, not US] would inform us about he time and date. but well, we heard nothing about it. then today was supposed to be CS for us, but no word about it, so no CS... kaoz. think we very fun to play with ah.

btw, CS is corrective service [roll eyes].

oh, and the motion for the debates was "THBT Uncle Sam should stay at home." i was first proposition. haha.

hmmm... long time nv blog le... but not as long as someone lah... *blinks innocently in YL's direction...* update!!!!!... haha

hn. the past week. summarised in one word.

blur.

[blur, as in went by very fast]

there were so many things to do, so much to talk about and no time to finish homework. tuesday night was piano lesson, wed night free, thursday night was rehearsal, friday night chingay preview, saturday night chingay and sunday evening and night istana park performance and lou hei at Marina South.

[blur, as in blur blur]

got a number of attacks during school time. i think it's exhaustion... late nights make me damn tired, so in lectures, esp. math lectures, all blur blur... then blur blur all the way... so scared i'll fall behind. i mean, i'm slightly behind in homework, but i hope i won't cease to function in classes.

haha.

highlights of the week.

[chingay]

quite fun. reminds me of cosplay. i mean, it's fun to see the pple you least expect in the hippy get up get hippy. haha. then at first, that is on friday, face paint wasn't part of the deal, but well, they thought face paint might make us more outstanding, so we went shopping on saturday morning to get some personal accessories and some face paint and hair spray. hm. then i left the shopping before it really started with my kor to do abit of personal shopping. haha. i mean, for more hip-hop accessories... he's the only one i trust around to have a fair sense of fashion in that. then twent to PA, hair got styled nice and spiky-toro-style... hmm. i don't know what toro's hair looked like, so i went by mingwei's comment. then the preview was quite smooth, but on that day itself. i tell you, they have zero initiative, man... what can i say, i had to yell come help me thrice before help came... and from AJ and TJ lorh, not even the PA pple. haiz. but it was still great. and we nv appeared on tv. haha.

[istana park performance]

live radio. haosong damn dua pai. wah... PM goh went over and played with his qing zhu on his [pa's] yang qin and asked him about where he got his qing zhu, quite apparently, he has been 'doted' on by PM goh since young lah...

[eliel]

he came back for a while and we had a really long talk with yenchien... long time no like that liao le. haha

[new kor]

just adopted a kor. he's KELVIN. yeah. so i've currently got a da ge [yenchien] er ge [kelvin] san ge [eliel].

[family]

we have a big family in class. think i've mentioned it before.

[debates]

that was today. haha. good one man, our class trashed them, i think. at least in a mild way. not as badly as we trashed shuk in in sec2, but it feels nice to win. hm. got tied with this other guy for best speaker but lost out coz i was reading off the paper... "no style". haha. but the teacher preferred my arguments over his. yay.

something liket his. got other things oso, like listening to CD's during lectures. need music to operate... hm... nothing much else yeah.
