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.
What's your phobia?

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?

i'm still in homeroom.. ponned math lect :P
(hears angie beside me, threatening to kill jason for... ahem)
lol.. let them settle their little dispute abt.. ahem.
haha.
it's so sad. i was suaned during gp just now by ting ting, lacretia and jamie.. saaaaaaad. i cant tell lame jokes anymore... it's like:
Anne: tell you a story, you must laugh k.. it's abt an ant and an elephant. an ant was crossing the desert, and saw an elephant approaching. then it dug a hole in the sand to hide himself, but he put his left leg out. a lizard crossed his path and asked the ant: "what are you doing?". the ant answered: "shhhh... i'm going to trip the elephant..."
lacretia and jamie: ha ha ha.
ting ting: *silent*
Anne: ting ting.. why you no reaction one...
ting ting: cos i know the story...
lacretia: we know too, we're just laughing cos you told us too..
Anne: ... ... ...
ya.. i told them to laugh cos before that i told them a joke and they didnt find it funny.. so saaaad!!! i officially retire from the Lame Club.. and join the physically handicapped association.. need more training.. haii
my dar tricked me. she asked me to look at the gallery and i did, then i thought potato was walking past our table, so i turned, and was going to shout "potato", but... damn it. guess who i saw.. so embarrasssing. it made me look as if i deliberately turned to look at him.. arrrrrggghhh~ and he had to go to the drink dispenser to buy green tea.. when our table was just beside it. grreat. and dar had to put her shoulder around me and ask me whether i wanna buy grrrreen tea. how wonderful. arrrrrggghhh~
i feel like running now. as in p.e. running.. dunno y. i feel as heavy as an elephant. yaya.. but i wont be tripped by the ant. >_<
Tuesday, July 29, 2003
haii.. i'm in B11 ONCE AGAIN.. this is so sad. i have broadband internet waiting for me at home and i'm here with what?! 56k super-slow-loading com. bahhh.
i'm wallowing in self-pity, dont stop meeeee.
i cant believe i forgot all about photo-taking yesterday.. and the worse thing was, JS and i were the only ones absent. so i have to take photos with HIM. uuuuggghhh... nooooooo... i dont waaaaaaaant!!! *cries*
(angie and jason playing beside me now.. very noisy, these 4yr-olds..)
hmph. fran sabotaged me just now at ET's table.. super-traumatised! *glares at fran* luckily ET's super blur.. or else i would've died.
(angie and jason again, tsk tsk tsk.. jason asking angie whether she wanted a.. er.. ahem)
it's not that i'm eavesdropping, but these 2 are super loud!! i hope B11's soundproof.. haha.

i cant believe i had to nag my mom to stop playing the com! sheesh! this is getting from bad to worse.. even my mom is becoming a com addict!
i dont want to start on this, but i cant help but wonder whether my grandma's staying at my place is the reason why i cant seem to concentrate on my work??? i have to admit, i really wish i could have my own room back.. at least i could shut out any kind of disruption.. small ones at least. arrrrrrgh~ my grandma's only leaving to one of my uncle's after her bday party which is like in SEPTEMBER!!! -_- prelims would have been over by then.. get my room back also no use already!!!! if i fail my prelims i'm so gonna kill myself.
btw, DC sux, although Mr Silas is not that bad. i'm never gonna pon gp again. HAHA. i'm sure hazel agrees with me. :P
oh my. College Day is.. i dunno what to say? boring? not exactly. except for Han's speech and cheering for people, i think the rest of it can like go to sleep! one thing that kept me awake was cheering for Chelle! i'd slap her back like a million times when ritchie (her darling) went up stage.. lalalaaa.. ritchie is not bad looking! and they look good together! wheeeee! the next couple of the yr man..(after mimi and mermer of cos!) lol~ i think the best part of College Day was the last part when we were singing the College Song, cos that old man was super hilarious man! i bet he leads the College Song every yr.. (cos he did it last yr) it was kinda mean, but almost the whole hall was laughing at him.. geez~
surprisingly the day passed very fast.. phy geog always seemed to go on forever, but it went fine today. Mr G scared me, or rather our class, to death this morn. he came into class, when it was supposed to be math tut, and said take out our human geog tut. gosh, Mr G should've taken a photo man, cos our faces were like.. super stunned. haha. then it was poor jason's turn to look shocked cos he was the one to pass the msg that human geog tut was on mon.. Mr G sure knows how to spring surprises on us mannnn.. he even joked that he's taking over math tut.. i almost believed him k! sheesh~ then Mrs Ng came in and we were like.. so relieved!! lol~
erm, i think the break after math lect was the most traumatising.. ET was like sticking around in the cafe. not like i dislike him now, but i mean, why walk RIGHT IN FRONT of me when i'm talking to Fran?!?! the space between Fran and i was so narrow and he just had to walk through it.. really, somebody tell me why he had to do that man. but then again, i didnt even bother to look at him.. i wonder why. angie almost knocked into him.. or did she? i still think he looks cute after so long. i wonder why too. *pulls hair*
i'm getting too excited for the Rome trip. perhaps i'm mad, cos i've started to think about some stuff i'd wanna bring there.. the trip is like 5 MONTHS away!!! but maybe it's not too early for my mom to start writing down the list on Things To Pray.. haha. i seriously hope that nothing bad will happen just before the trip.. eg The Sars Strikes Back or something.. i better start praying now.. lalalaaa~
it's the end of the week.. and i'm tired even though i havent even started hwk.. i'm a pig!! heck la, i'm gonna sleep NOW!

i'm in SA Library!!
hmm, i seem to be blogging everywhere else except at home.. O_o
sadly, i'm waiting for D.C. which is at 2.30.. what else, for ponning GP..
luckily Hazel's doing with me.. i dont wanna do dc ALOOOOONNNNEEE.. haha. anw it's Mr Silas who's discipline master now.. i wonder if he's as sadistic as Mr Muthu... ugh~ *crosses fingers* >_<
haii.. i'm not looking fwd to Fri, aka College Day, COS! we have to go to sch at like early in the morning for GEEEEOOOOG (dryman's) dyiiiiiiingggg... while others can report in at 12.45.. sob.
my brain still cant register the fact that prelims are approaching. i just cant seem to settle down for a non-disturbed time to do hwk and revise... sux. when the time comes for hwk, my eyelids automatically start to droooooop... esp for econs. i really dunno why. my body is sooo against me! *wails*
btw! JS wrote KELVIN'S hp no. on angie's tissue packet today.. haha. i'm quite sure u didnt chuck it away honz! grab the opportunity ya? hohoho.. she's gonna kill me for this.. hm, i've promised not to tease her about sammy but i never said anything about keeping quiet when it comes to her NEW LOVER KELVIN? hiakz~
ok, i better shut up soon. geez, this seat's freezing! i can see icicles dripping down from my fingers! :P
Tuesday, July 22, 2003
i'm in homeroom B11! with 3 sane people: michelle, mimi and grace, and 2 super insane toots: angie and jason! angie is like screaming awaaaaaaay! and jason laughing.. sounds scandalous. *teehee*
i soooo dont wanna talk about what happened during econs which was just a period ago, but ya, er.. Mr Wee was exclaiming that the class clock was missing, and we guessed it was stolen. BUT THEN, he exclaimed again about our missing class markers.. that was it. he asked me why the markers were missing. CAN U BELIEVE IT?!?! I CANT BELIEVE IT!! then the class started laughing and going "OOHHHHH...." and i was like OMG?!?! *hears angie and jason panting behind me and what seens to be the sound of a chair topppling* ok, now they're screaming.. haha. no matter what, i'm not turning behind to look.. :P
oh shit, there's another class coming in.. gotta run!
Monday, July 21, 2003
WHEE!! i got the WAP for my hp today! SOOOO EXCITING.. i was trying out the webbies and d/led a few ringtones and an ugly matrix reloaded wallpaper. ack. i doubt i'll be using much of it anyway, cos the service prolly costs a bomb. eeks~ *shields eyes from the next hp bill*
ahh.. i know it's a tad difficult to read the black words against the dark purple, but pls bear with this layout for now.. cos i changed it jus today morning at like 2plus?! perhaps i should get something super plain. like plain white. just WHIIIIIITEEEEE.. heehee.
btw, we're supposed to update our CIP forms and return to the tutors.. BUT, if i havent done any, how can i possibly update?! the only recent one is Metta.. anything before that i dont remember! and the total adds up to only 29.5hrs!!!! what the?! 20hrs=1 pt.. sheesh. for the first time in my life, i'm going to FAIL CIP. WOW...
our deeeeeeeaaarrrrr principal Mrs Lim Chye Tin just reminded us that today is the start of Week 4.. grrrrreat. prelims commence Week 9. i have a pathetic 5 weeks to cram all that math, geog, and econs into my non-existent brain. God pls help me...
ooo.. i know i'm a super suaku but i just found out in one of my emails that authors including Jane Green pose as readers and send in good reviews just to boost their book sales.. how disappointing! to think i like reading her books! haha.. well anyway, the SAJC Library has great Jane Green (The Hulk's sister.. hulk=green???) books.. just finished reading Bookends.. super-addictive, funny..
"CATH AND SI ARE BEST FRIENDS.
Total opposites, always together and both unlucky in love. Cath is scatty, messy and emotionally closed, and Si is impossibly tidy, bitchy and desperate for a man of his own. They live near each other in West Hampstead, close to their other best friends Josh and Lucy - who are married, with a devil-spawn child called Max and a terrifying Swedish nanny, Ingrid.
When Portia steps back into their lives - beautiful Portia, the undisputed queen of their group at university, who broke their collective hearts one night and from whom they have all gradually, silently, grown apart - her reappearance sets off a chain of events that tests Cath and her friends to the limit. Does Portia have a hidden agenda, or is she just looking for happy endings all round? Whatever the answers, none of them could ever predict the outcome..."
quite an enticing intro to me.. and the ending is just as what the author says: unpredictable. i think the addition of gay characters (Si) tend to make the plot all the more exciting.. i cant wait to borrow more Jane the Green books..
oops, Holland V on Ch8 is starting soon.. i'm gonna chop a good seat!! cos my whole family watches it.. haha.
shit.. this is becoming a weekly blogging thing.. and i dont like the way this is going..
i was going to finally log on to blogger but my dad just had to come right behind me at that very second and request that i let him play a few rounds of Freecell.. ARGHHHH. that's life for me.
BT2 results are depressing. for me. i still havent had the guts to tell my parents about the nice red F that i scored for Geog.. UGH. i'm such a coward. but then again, my ears will have no peace once i tell my mom.. everyday my mom will hound on the F.. regardless of the A i got for math.. can u believe it, she had no reaction when i told her "i got A for math!" how encouraging. bah.
ANYBODY OFFERING GEOG TUITION?!?! econ tuition commencing this week.. *rubs hands in glee*
ANYWAY, JS's bday party was yesterday (day before yesterday). and u know what?! i was so shocked. my mom actually thought i was going clubbing! (the word "party" is very sensitive for her u know) hahaha.. i wanted to roll on the floor.. if u know what i mean. to me, JS and clubbing just dont link.. LOL~ ok what shocked me was that she didnt scream about me going clubbing, since she assumed i did. WOW. miracle mannnn.. *wonders* does that mean she approves? so does it mean i can go for the next party??? *slaps myself* THINK PRELIMS! haha, now back to JS's party.. hmmm.. for one thing, i seemed to be the only one who thought his hair and shirt looked good.. O_o? (oh nooo i will not talk about the pants!) and we were almost constantly suaning angie and sammy.. *evil laughter* i'm 100% sure i'm getting slaughtered the moment i step into school.. eurgh~ the party was ok, food not bad! and i agree with angie, his yvip friends are pretty sociable.. left the party early though.. obviously most of us were feeling out of place with Js's other friends, so i wonder why JS insisted on getting everyone to play games.. guess the supposed ice-breakers didnt turn out as he expected?? *shrug*
okok, so i sorta ponned choir. :P but since JS gave me an invitation, it's a valid excuse right??? pls tell me Mona (my choir mistress) wont kill me.. *crosses fingers*
GUESS WHAT. i DIDNT go to Embassy! *pictures the angelic me* puke puke.. haha. seriously i could've, since my mom assumed i went clubbing.. oh darn. think kim's gonna kill me if i tell her.. at first i was feeling all guilty about the red F, now i so regret not going.. bahhh. life's full of regrets. Discuss.
oh my, do i hear something about Centro??? hahahaha... 25th july??? that's exactly one month to PRELIMS. darn again~ if i went for Embassy i'd never go for Centro, not for a million pounds.. (er, not literally)
got thrashed at pool today (or rather, yesterday).. sob. i'm super rusty, considering i havent played for many months.. but it was fun hanging out with the guys.. and i'm such a super suaku! 1st i didnt know bus 167 goes to thomson.. ARGH. 2nd i didnt know Jem's grandma stayed jus opp him.. lol.. and 3rd, our Archbishop Nicholas Chia (YES HIM!) is his GRAND-UNCLE. sheesh. and everybody knew that. double sheesh! haha..
BT2 is gradually freaking me out. i just reminded myself of my sucky grades and i'm probably gonna do this badly for A's as well.. EEEEEEEKKSSSS.. kiss goodbye to NUS.. ARGHHHHHHHH...
