darn it. just called my choir mistress, trying to get out of this week's choir camp. she didn't let me, saying that gerard might be able to fetch me home on sunday. ack, hate it when pple do stuff for me, feel like i'm inconveniencing them. which is why i'm not asking denise to give me a lift, her dad is really nice.
truth be told, i don't like going for things just half-way. if i go for the camp i want to go for the whole thing, not leave on the night of the first day and come back at dusk on the second. what's the point, if im going to be missing half the thing anyway. there're obviously going to be things done on the day that i missed and, how do it put it... i'll be out of sync with everyone else. i'll start feeling like i'm part of an interactive audience or something. get my drift?
don't get me wrong, am really wanting to go for this camp. there's going to be praise and worship and everything. but i'd rather not travel back and forth from sembawang and thompson/bishan or worse, have someone do it for me.
urgh. how did i get myself into this... and so sorry for sounding american, was watching tv before this.

hah. ok, shd have a few good hours on the com. and tor, eldred said he never got anything from you.
so. camp was really funky. everyday we'd end at abt, roughly 12 in the morning and by the time we were finished with supper , washing up and whatnot it would be abt 1 something so everyone would get an average of 9 hours of sleep for both nights togther. but that's for the pple who actually slept at all lah... heard abt alot of strange things going on in the other dorms... spin the bottle and all. which dorm? if you're familiar with the pple in my church then you shd know.
was hanging out with either my group members or kat and ara (both pple who were in the same dorm as i was in) at any given time. they're all pretty decnt pple, except for ara and kat who stole my towel while i was bathing. screamed at the same time a facil was nearby so they had to give it back. when asked why i screamed they responded by saying that the water was cold. sheesh.
if i ate like how i did during the camp, i'd be hell a lot fatter than i am now. 3 square meals a day, plus supper. boxes of oreos were present all the time, unlimited supply of milo and the occasional bag of chips. oh yes, and nutella that saved me because i badly needed a sugar high. i mean, the meals were so healthy.
had mass on the last day. was surprised that my parents turned up. thought only my godma would 'cos my parents are so blur, i had to call my dad the previous day to tell him that there was mass at all. it was pretty cool, especially since it was on a sunday. was sorry i had to have lunch them though, there was funky stuff happening at my group table...
ok, aside from all that, i really learnt a lot. about myself, my faith and my parents. it may sound cliche (but hey, look on the bright side, they sorta become cliches because they're true...) but somehow after the camp i was feeling maybe a little closer to God.
and that was last week. the most recent weekend was my confirmation itself. the rehersal was on saturday so had to miss half of band because of it. but i think mebe it was mainly because of the recruitment drive. sang in a small group to promote choir. and screwed it up. oh well. and not forgetting elizabeth who baked brownies for everyone as christmas presents. she's unbalanced larh.
bought a dress, shawl and did a manicure for my confirmation itself. manicure being a colour french (black). i really like it but is now odd to eat with fingers. anyway, was sitting at the back of the church and everytime i turned around, it seemed as if there was another ij girl strolling in. i say, we don't need a chapel, we'll just use risen christ.
been preparing for sunday for all my cathecism life. now it's all over and i feel just weird. it's like i've become the church equivelent of an adult. im going to miss class and of course my cathecists, especially lester and lai probably 'cos they've been the closest to my own age compared to all the other cathecists. easier to connect and all that.
honestly, i've never given much thought to cat classes. but now am feeling grateful, for all those lessons concerning my faith, the classes on saturday afternoons that became such a chore to attend but now when i look back, rather enjoyable really. they were an integral part of my life.
enough reminiscing. am going to change skin, am tired of this one.

wheeeeee!!! my com has been fixed!! the thing kind of died while i was away for con camp. my parents told me that my mum had overloaded the washing machine so there was a blackout. next thing they knew, the cpu couldn't be switched on.
have a lot of stuff to say.
already mentioned, confirmation camp. met some really nice pple there, the type you don't want to lose contact with. adrian, amelia, angelina (two of 'em), daphne, elizabeth, ester, gabriel, kenneth, matthew, sean and vanessa. typically known as the st paulians as our group was (duh?!) st paul. we had the best time there, and i want to go back!! learnt many things abt myself, did a lot of reflecting and bonding. though one thing i hated was that there was no starbucks nearby. nearest one was at compassvale mall, 10 min drive away. our facillitators were (and still are, actually) really nice. they got stuff for us from 7-11. man i had the best time.
ah crap. need to make long entry abt week but need to wake up for band tmr. at this rate, i'll get mebe abt 5 hrs of sleep. will have to make post tmr as don't need to get up on tues.

am freaking out right now. haven't the foggiest idea what i want to do in the future. at least steph has her whole lawyer thing and all that, even knows what jc and stuff she wants to take, so i rather envy her on that bit.
people always say do what you think you'll be happy doing, what you could see yourself doing for the rest of your life. the problem is, i don't think i'm good at anything. i did used to think perhaps geography, but i was wrong. i suck at that, even. i can't draw, write, act, debate or even play an instrument properly. oh shut up, the sax doesn't count, i suck at that too. i did though, once really enjoy this class we had in sec 1 and 2, design and technology. was rather good at it too. pity my school doesn't offer it o level. perhaps i should have gone out of school to persue it instead, is it too late for my aspiration as a carpenter(ress)?
hang on, i'm cheering up now. i'm going to go into spa therapy which is something i like and am remotely good at. my cousin makes me massage her everytime i see her and apparently says that it's as good as the funky thai massage she went for the other time.
ok. am quite cheered up now. typing to myself on a blog can be very theraputic you know. and oi tor, when are you going to next call? mum's been bothering me with her paranoia.
and another thing. in response to denise's post, i might be taking off the links to the other blogs. i don't see a point, practically everyone who comes here already has those addresses or aren't interested in them. it's the whole blog network thing, if you get what i mean.
have to go have dinner now, am having claypot rice. and speaking of clay, i need to make an entry about that clay aiken album that's just come out. another time then.

rosie and chan came over today to make good use of the 6 disc set from studio ghibli that i've got on loan. saw mononoke, some racoon thing i don't know the title of and totoro! aargh, that was one hell of a cute movie! i recommend that everyone watch it. why can't disney produce stuff like this?
am getting results tmr. so scared, im numb. am confused as to why they always moderate english but not chinese... and have done much better for end year as compared to mid year. so obviously that's going to pull me down, ack! also have to go to school earlier 'cos gail siow (i can't for the life of me remember how to spell her surname) wants to go through the answers for social studies with us, which is nuts 'cos no one's gonna want to come early.
tor, stop with the friendster thing, i think it hates me. i can't get in, said something about cookies. oh well.
ok. have to go draw up giant planner to stick on wall because of my horrible holidays plans. need to have parents know what time i come home and all that, ack.

had the best time yesterday. went to watch underworld with eldred (shut up about the whole premier thing you had, rachael) and, i don't know what to think of that movie. i'd say that it was a good movie but they ripped off so many things from other places, you wouldn't believe. got the whole retractable blade thing from spawn, the blade itself had some blade II thing going on, blue vampire eyes from interview, moves from the matrix and one character even resembled x-men's nightcrawler (shut up chan, i can hear you from here). but hey, i still say watch it anyway and go form your own opinions.
after that went to this nice comics shop behind kino (the one at bugis).
boy am i suckered. now i know how you felt when you saw that sandman globe the other time tor. saw so much great stuff, that were, needless to say, horribly expensive. $350 for a pewter set of the Endless, $79.90 for a small arabian nights thing (not sure what it was made of, some kind of metal..?) of Morpheus doing the whole putting the ball of monsters thing into his robe, $30 for Nightmare before Christmas playing cards, $25 for the Sandman 2004 calender...
oh boy am i suckered.
also feeling very weird 'cos i haven't got anymore studying to do. spending my days on the com and reading (am starting on terry goodkind and trying to get into anne mccafrey. i like dragons, but rather enjoyed her whole arcona thing). so now am very relaxed.
by the way, if anyone hears me curse and it doesn't sound english, it's most likely a triple decker russian insult.
good night.

It was so below 100 words. And I have been doing yoga for one year already! (shoulder stand triangle half moon and also good at breathing exercises) Can't stand on my head or suck my toes yet (actually i can but not very elegantly).
Ghibli.
Thanks for Bday card! Am going for swing dance lesson in hours time so just blogging for no particular reason. Should be researching law firms to apply to but they all actually do the same boring thing. Did you get my email? Was on wales and other places visited. Here is extract in case you didn't get it:
Waterfalls and beaches. Wales is like Lord of the Rings country, and I don't mean the movie... it's laden with celtic history, and the fields really are of gold. I even saw an Underhill cottage! (Underhill being one of the surnames of characters in LOTR).
Sardinia was a mediterranean dream, the scrubby, rugged landscape is deceptively even, but drops to sheer high cliffs as you round turns on narrow mountain roads. (We were in a Ford Fiesta, thank god for 4 wheel drive.) The views were amazing, and the beaches... pristine and isolated. We ate loads of seafood, lobster, clam and scallops. And I scuba dived for the first time! Was a bit scarey especially when you look up and see lots of blue water on top of you.
Ok good luck for exams and drink lots of water!!

to tor: what's having a sister got to do with describing yourself? and if you can't draw patterns like death then you probably wouldn't like cosplay. and since when did you like yoga? and i think that was more than 100.
ok. have not blogged for close to a month already. in middle of exams now and have just finished maths and lit paper on friday. only way to describe maths is screwed. on a lighter note, my lit was better than i expected it to be. it was good, in fact. also had a very good physics paper though i can't say the same for eveything else.
was talking to eldred last night. he was nice enough to lend me Gaiman's endless nights and am feeling v. happy now. would have read yours tor, if you hadn't sounded so reluctant at the thought of bringing it over. so now you don't have to. he's also lending me his studio gibli (i dunno how to spell it but it certainly sounds something like that) collection and so am going to watch mononoke in english (finally!!) and am getting around to watching totoro as well, hah!
for some very strange reason i cannot fanthom, as i stepped out of the shower yesterday, i suddenly recalled the name of the main character from Tim Burton's nightmare before christmas: Jack. and i realise i don't know anyone of the name jack, even if it's a rather common name, come to think of it.
sorry, that was just random stuff.
you know one of those warm, lazy afternoons when you don't really feel like doing anything at all, but you know you must because there's an exam 2 days away? well, i feel like that now.

I have no instincts. In fact, I am a large placid creature who likes to sit in a pool of warm water and coagulate. My rock-like physical reactions to proximate balls and people in a sporting context means painful injuries. My happiness is a warm bolster. My bolster is a footrest, a pillow, an eyeshade, a weapon and a placemat, all at once. It is not everything. It is everything important. I like to write and think. I like yoga and scrabble. My toes smell like boiled peanuts. I wear brown eyeliner but lack the courage to draw patterns round my eyes like death. And I have a sister.

got a few things to say. first, may we please have a moment of silence for those who perished in the september 11th attacks.
ok. on a lighter note, my sister's blog has screwed itself up. not sure what happened but she can't post and i can't even get in. so she came up with the hair-brained (is that how you spell it?) idea of sharing mine. i barely post once a week and she doesn't post all that regularly either (when she had hers, that is) so i was thinking, why not? let's put this blog to good use man. might change the address though, to something more relevent to both of us.

am writing this in bed with fountain pen (why fountain pen? because i can.) in full scap. can't seem to find time time to go online anymore and when i do, my mind's a blank and i can't seem to remember what i wanted to say in the first place.
anyway, lost my handphone on saturday, last week (for douglas adam's 'hitchhiker' fans, 'i think you ought to know, i'm feeling very depressed.'-marvin). so now everything's gone. contacts, radio stations, everything in my archives, my profiles (including the froody harry potter ring tone) and even the cute finding nemo thing i recorded with steph. all the things i've been putting into my phone for nearly a year now.
being irresponsible me, i left it on the taxi when i was getting out, going from just outside my house to the bishan mrt 'cos the damned bus wasn't coming and i was running late.
the worst part - my mum got me a new handphone yesterday.

hello again. have not blogged for how long? nearly a month, i think. been very busy with syf, school and all.
speaking of syf, for those of you who don't know- band got silver. don't know the score yet but feeling quite like crap already, why? everyone else got gold or won the championships, choir, eldds, netball (of course!) and debate. don't know the outcome of dance yet but hey, we are talking abt ple like donn and kristy in it... for them not to get gold would be a scandal. on the bright side, we did get a treat of pizza from mr chan, which is very hard to come by.
so as you can see, life isn't going awfully well for me. especially when i saw my least favourite person during choir yesterday. seems that he's graduating soon, or has already but i hear that he's staying in the highlands for good. then he says he's coming back in september for a short while. by the gods, he does turn up when i least expect. actually, i'm seriously considering leaving choir. not because of him you nuts, don't really care much abt him. more abt the politics flying around, i suppose. i'm not being affected by any, which is a good thing, but why can't we all just, get along? after all, we only see each other about once a week most of the time. also considering joining cyf but... i think uprooting myself and transfering to another parish would be a better thing to do. over here it's very stagnant, every week i go for cat class then for choir. the only time i have fun is during christmas, if that can be classified as fun. i get so busy with the regular practises during nov-dec that i hardly have time for anything else. which sucks because then i can't go on holiday or for gaming and things like that.
should talk about more cheerful things, more thereputic (is that how you spell it?). my dad got a dvd player from my grandmother for his birthday. my godfather didn't know it was suppose to be a suprise and called up to ask him what model his current vcd player is. ho ho! got quite a laugh on that one, my father obviously states that he doesn't need a dvd player but my grandma gets it anyway. not only can it play dvds and vcds, it can also has a function for radio, which my father doesn't use. in fact, he hasn't touched the thing at all. well, no matter. when dvds take over, he'll be thankful. am going to ask eldred to loan me a few of his dvds he's recommending ie, princess mononoke and such like.
cheerful things. was talking to adrian after mass yesterday and he mentioned that he didn't notice i have braces and asked me if they were new. they have, in fact, been here for over a year. oh well, he says mebe it's because he doesn't see me smile much. i say that's because there hasn't been much to smile about these days. there was ipw (i must have lost 3 years of my life on that near disaster) and the carnival (there went another 3 years) and also the fact that i've lost half the blog addresses i've collected (if you think you're one of then, which you most likely are, then do me a fav and post it on my tagboard, thanks). there're a host of other things as well (do you know that they're not including the scourging of the shire in the RotK?) but there are some things i'd rather remain not published.
went down to games workshop yesterday. a big game was going on, not sure what but it was a three table affair. which means there were many pple gaming so i couldn't see what the hell was going on. am not planning to go into tabletop, think i can shit gold is it? and it seems rather violent. the other time i went, one of the first things i heard was, 'take his head off! take his head off!' which i admit, sounds fun but if the whole game is like that then i don't think it's my cup of tea. jenny and steph are quite into it and have been using the shop's pieces. i say good for them, everyone needs something to get into.
have had lots of other things to say but can't remember it all now. will be swamped with CAs next week but might post if find time. jen's going off to obs, lucky her! ok, will go now, haven't been blog reading for weeks.
