er.. i missed Mars.
guess my eyes were too glued to the tv.. anyway i doubt i would've seen it, cos my place's always cloudy. ha. and my house faces a "bad" direction, i can never get to see the fireworks on NDP.. :(

and i missed Tension.
they were in singapore on 22nd and 23rd Aug!! i cant believe i missed them.. arrrrrrghhhh! john is like so cuuuuute! haha.. i think i'd have slapped myself if they sang a capella at heerens... arrrrgh. arrrrgh. arrrrrrrrrrrrrgh. i couldn't possibly have gone to heerens cos i was to be at Downtown East celebrating gu niang's bday.. *pulls hair* imagine, if i knew about Tension's arrival before i left for gu niang's party, who would i choose? Tension, or my good ol' friend?? whoa, i dont wanna know.. >_<

what else did i miss.. i think that's it.. ha.
btw, spent a few hours at Woodlands library today.. with JS and Sammy.. i felt so bright.. hahaha.. i'm just kidding. the few hours were really.. wasted? cos i didnt do much.. and i'm way behind my study schedule for phy geog.. shucks. i got my notes vandalised, and i had to keep reminding JS to take his bf in hand.. JUST KIDDING! i'm not gonna go for any group study again.. i'm super unproductive. guess the only way's to stay home, but AWAAAAAY from my ever-so-attractive bed and forever-switched-on com and filled-with-yummy-food kitchen.. wow. so that leaves me with my grandma's room and the toilet. sheesh.

i have a premonition: i'll flunk my prelims.
yes, i mean everything. my brain's empty! i dont feel like i've remembered anything i've studied.. this is sooo not LDMR, it's me who's getting RETARDED. should i drink chicken of essence or brain supplements or pig's brain?? for those who are puking, pig's brain is actually very delicious. heh.

funny, but i'm actually looking forward to grad night after being brainwashed by eugene and jevon.. btw eugene makes an excellent salesman! haha. the power of persuasion... wonder what everyone's wearing? so that i wont appear in the same outfit as someone(s) on that night.. that will be DISASTROUS.

*yawn* i better get some zzzz.. i'm running tomorrow! (u must be thinking, does anne ever run?!) haha.. even more surprising, i'm running alone.. hope stadium's not too crowded.. *prays*

found this on jason's, so out of curiosity, i did the quiz..

I am scared of Willow trees.

close my eyes,
take a deep breath,
and wake up to
l.o.n.e.l.i.n.e.s.s.

heck, the font colour sux but at least the entries are easier to read :P

arrrrr... screw GP.
luckily this is only prelims, if it was the A's i'd be crying right now!

on a happier note, today's Angie's bday! Happy 18th Birthday Honz!! hee, Sammy even bought her a pink cushion! *winkwink* hm, next comes the diamond ring already right?? :P it's also my Dad's 50th birthday!! wanted to buy him a card at marks and spencers.. but i forgot.. oops.

i dunno if it's the after-effects of GP, but somehow i'm feeling very sleeeeeeeeepy......zzz.
or maybe Tension's latest album has a sleep-inducing effect.......zzz.

the burberrys wraparound shawl zoe tay wore in Rome is like to-die-for.... haha.
the only thing that's keeping me alive now is the Rome trip, really. and maybe 15min of Collapse on msn.com! and of cos, my hourly dose of Holland V on ch8..
GP is like.. this coming TUESDAY.
argh.

oh, gu niang's birthday chalet is this sat.. FYI, he's Kenneth from my youth group, CYF. despite prelims being just round the corner, i'm attending his party, after all, the party's not the whole day, so why not take the chance to slack? :P at the worst, i'll bring work to revise while on the mrt. grr.. i have no life!

having flu, mild cough and sore throat now.. guess it's the stress?

btw, i came across a "Things That Make Us Singaporean" book which, i think belongs to my bro. it comprises of messages or poems written by singaporean citizens about, of cos, the things that make us singaporean! some interesting ones:

"Recipe for a Nation

MRT, Newton Circus,
Esplanade at night,
Singtel, Starhub, chicken rice,
Orchids, lions, crescent light.

Orchard Rd to Suntec,
Flats in the sky, reservoirs around,
Rojak and char kway teow.

Mix."
-Melissa Ng Myen Ping, student, 15

"Never see chewing gum for more than 10 years."
-Woon Kheng Boon, engineer, 32

"Singaporeans?
Aiyah, so easy...
Go kopitiam, can see already!
See they go cut queue?
We Singaporeans, so kiasu!
Greedy one, never full!
Eat rokjak, want yong-tau-foo!
Oi, what you laughing about??!!"
-Loh Huilin, student, 14

i'm really upset. i finally managed to log on with my GPRS but the pic zai sent me, the one of us together, is like super pixelated AND it's in BLACK AND WHITE... T_T my phone sux, cos it can't receive mms for nuts. furthermore, i have to go online to view the pic!!! haii.. does that mean that nokia is still the best?! if only i had V200.. sobz~

math mock suxxxxxxxx.
that shows how well i'm prepared for prelims..

anyway, today was The Assumption of our Mother Mary. went to Blessed Sacrament Church with Fran, Grace and Eugene.. Fran said the parishoners have no sense of punctuality, and i thought my church was bad. but from what i saw, i think it isn't that bad.. had lots of questions floating around in my mind, but quite an experience nonetheless. one thing struck me: i thought mass procedures were identical for all Catholic churches. weird. and they have an OLD choir, as in middle to old age choir. i kept telling Fran that she should start a youth choir, but then again, i hardly saw any youths in attendance.. i mean, the priest may speak slow, the choir may sound mediocre, the music may play super slowly, but if the focus is on God and reverence for Him and the Eucharistic Celebration, i don't think it is boring at all. for me, the sermon was pretty long-winded but i didn't find it boring at all. the mass is never boring. it is the people celebrating the mass who are not paying attention or not focused. am i wrong to say that? eg. Fr Louiseau from my church. he's old, and he has his accent (is it french? oops i cant remember) and though his speech may be kinda slurred, some people just switch off cos they think he's boring, but if everyone listens carefully there's good advice in that sermon. oops, i've been rattling on and on..

i wonder why the church never gives an explanation about the importance and the holiness of the Eucharistic Celebration. if they did, people won't be late for mass, they won't be leaving the church before the mass is over, won't be letting their irritating hps (with orh-biang ringtones) ring during mass, won't be letting their children scream and run about the pews, won't be receiving the holy communion irrespectfully, blah the blah the blah. sometimes i really wonder, why some people attend mass yet don't participate wholeheartedly and with reverence for God. what's the use? worse of all, they disturb other devotees who are really there to unite with God. some people even attend mass without knowing why they do what they do. no wonder they find mass boring. um, i'm rattling again...

finally had the time to browse through others' blogs.. i went to sam fern's, then came across alex yeoh's blog.. oops, didn't know he had one.. i'm super suaku.. anyway, he mentioned something like time passing real fast, and it reminded me of today, had to write our last journal entry for moral ed period. yeah, time's slipping past so fast, only to reminisce the wonderful memories of the past and (try) to catch hold of the fast train of the present. just only a yr and a half ago, i was a newbie in SAJC and wondering where to go. now, i'm about to take my A's and still wondering where to go.. geez. one moment i hoped A's could be over asap, but another moment i didn't want JC days to be over so soon..

hm, to keep the memories of JC, i must take photos everywhere around sch before A's.. haha. like take as many chaoyang pics as possible with sharn.. lol. but FIRST, i must buy a cam! haha. spotted auyong's nikon coolpix at toa payoh hub! going at only $399.. UP $648.. hm. should i......

oh i almost forgot. they announced prom nite this morning during morning asssembly.. what the.. Masquerade de Saint?! nope.. no mask for me. and no way i'm spending my money on Orchard Hotel which is at the fringe of town.. unless.. i dunno unless what.. haha. made a deal with angie (Shell in?) that we'll go clubbing on prom nite, while the rest of the cohort will be diggin into their 10-course dinner.. unless.. dunno unless what again. seriously, i've never heard of Orchard Hotel until this morning, so i'm not expecting anything grand. no way can this yr's prom nite be compared to IJ grad nite at Conrad.. i thought $60 was a good deal for such a grand place and 10-course dinner and not to mention the crowded dancefloor! the music was goooood.. and also too much free gifts to carry home..haha.

i won't imagine myself dressing up for a masquerade, and i can't. gdness.. it's gonna be a nightmaaaaaaaaare....

after one million yrs, i finally blogged at home..
really, i dunno what to type now, except that prelims are in less than 2 weeks and i haven't really knocked that fact into my dumb head? btw, didn't go to school today.. sian. the school might as well declare pre-prelim holidays so we can study at home.. somehow school doesn't have the slightest attraction. also, i can take a break whenever i can :P and i can order almost anything that is available in my fridge.. haha.

opportunity cost of studying at home = getting hounded by mr wee at morning assembly tomorrow..
aaaarrrrrrgggghhh. i hate opportunity costs. oh, i missed GP too. does that mean DC again?!?! *dies*

hmph. luckily i saw our prelim timetable at national day celebration.. the subs are divided quite evenly, so it's not like prelim's crammed in between 3 days.. phew.

disaster: progress report given out today.
shit man. i really wanna burn it. cos there's nothing nice to say about me on that piece of paper.

ATTENTION ALL LAMERS (OR ANYONE LOOKING FOR A GOOD LAUGH)!!!
DADDY DAYCARE IS NOW SHOWING IN ALL THEATRES!! BE SURE TO CATCH IT!
shut your eyes from those lousy reviews and stop by your nearest cinema.. to buy the tix to DADDY DAYCARE!
haha.. am i over-advertising?
