Wednesdae: Fun, thrilling and rocks!!!!
I woke up at 8am, then my mom fetched me to school for my early sectionals at 9am. By the time I went there, the clarinet sections were already practising and I saw Terence, Rujun and Sean in the indoor bandrm. Then we chatted for a while before the real sectionals actualli began at abt 9.30..
Then me and terence began practising our Racial Harmony Perf Songs which both fortunately and unfortunately I am not going due to the kompang and the VE finale... I will be missing the stupid band songs and the fun racial harmony a-go-go dance steps... Lolz...
We started off with Copacabana, then played Big Fun in the Sun, Hawai Five-O n Jump Swing Fever wif the trumpets, clarinets and Horns. Then after that I found a baton on the floor with two cork grips and one was loose. So I keep swacking the loose cork grip against Terence and he told mi it hurt. Then there was a red marking on his hand then I felt so very guilty.
Budden when I tried the swaking on Sean, he told mi it didnt hurt and when I aimed at Yiyi, I accidentally hit his teeth with the cork grip and he covered his whole mouth in pain... Then quiet little Li Chan also from clarinets sec one just stood down there laughing... Then Yiyi of cos' got his revenge by hitting me back with that nasty weapon of mine...
Then we practiced Jump Swing Fever with that repititive off-beats that killed mi for soem reason and after tt, it's the traditional moment/period we call CARDPLAYING SLACK TIME!!!
Firstly, we played Bridge wif Terence, Teng'En (Band Major) and Wei Liang (clarinets) so it is a Eupho VS Clarinet match... Of cos' me and Terence won like siao in the first round with 12 tricks and stuff... Then I matched with Teng En and we lost due to my brainless thinking and Sean's misguiding skills... :P Then after tt, seeing tt more pple are crowding around us, we decided tt we'd play Bluff instead bcos it can involve more pple... So me, Sean, Rujun, Yuxin, Wei Liang, Yiyi, Li Chan, Teng'En and Terence played bluff and hahazz.. Yiyi lost both matches... From the playing of games, I could sense that Teng En didnt like me much.. (oversensitivity again???!??)
Then at abt 12.30, me, sean, terence, kian hong, yiyi, teng en, jian hui, rujun and wei liang went to Prince for lunch.... I had a mixed combo due to
MY creativity of eating... Me and terence, sitting beside each other swopped one chicken cutlet for one fish fillet so we have this unique combo... Then Teng En n Rujun copied us but they were so unhygienic - cos' they used their bare hands to switch... Ew...
Before we ate the main meal, just when Wei Liang and Yiyi went to get drinks for Jian Hui, we also suggested to put salt in Yiyi's soup and drinks... I put lots of salt in his soup and Teng En put alot of salt in his drink... We stired it like siao... And teng en cleaned the soup-stained spoon with his tissue and folded it and stirred his drink with his straw to make his unsuspicious of our flaw-ful plot....
Then of cos' he realised sth was wrong when he returned to his seat he saw his stained napkin and asked me if mine was soaked with mushroom soup as well... The rest of us tried not to singger and we continued eating our garlic bread... Then when he moved on to his drink, it was until 15mins later that he realised, "Ey, why my ice lemon tea is so acidic one?" lolz....
Then after eating, I had to rush off back to school to meet up wif Jiefu and Kaijun for the IDS... We walked to the bus stop and I kept initating them to pon this whole thing and work online and fake the data for some despo cps... Then after tt we decided to go to the reserve in the end...
We took bus 67 to the bus stop after the one opp. Beauty World Plaza... Then we walked for about 15mins before we reached the signboard that says 'Bukit Timah Natural Reserve' and another 10mins before we arrived at the visitor's centre at the foot of the hill.. Jie Fu then went to the tourist shop or sth to purchase an outdoor camera at $15 and can take up to 27 pics... Then we set off, so very unprepared...
Firstly, we walked up to very steep slope at abt 60 degrees inclined that I was literally climbing.. Halfway the slope I saw someone taking a stick for hiking and he popped off another route...And I copied him and got a Y-shaped branch and walked up the tiring slope for another 5mins... By the time we reached the top of slope, we found out lots of things... 1st thing is that the slope itself is abt 40m high and we climbed it!! Yeah!! 2nd thing was that we forgot to bring insect repellant... Lastly, when Jie Fu took out his root beer 1 litre bottle and kaijun took out his cocacola 1.5litres bottle... I said, "Shit. I forgot to fill my bottle..." Gosh... How stupid am I!! :D
Then we continued our route until we arrived at another crossroad... We chose Summit Path and walked a strainingly uneven high series of steps and I mean uneven and straining... It was so darn tiring cos the stairs are of uneven lengths and they r very large and by the time we thought we finished the steps, there were still some more straining for us... Its like the hard and fast way to reach the summit, like a detour in the Amazing Race!!! Lolz, very fun and we arrived the summit after a short hike at the top of the staggering stairs... I tink the stairs itself covers abt another 30m in height!!
And we arrived at the summit in 40mins time!! Yeah!!! Then we further discussed abt what to do wif the plot of reserve.. In the end, we found it best to conserve it and improve on the facilities/recreational stuff in the reserve.. Then we set off in another route with hope to find the Singapore Quarry nearby... Then we took a wrong turn in some Seraya route and looped around the quarry and then after another 20mins we finally reached the forgot-what-is-the-name hut and saw the quarry.. It was a very nice view and Jie fu took more pics.. Then we decided to take a short cut back home... Another detour, the shorter Rock path or the longer Tiup-Tiup path.. We took the rock path and darn, it was like another physical fun challenge.. Firstly, it was very rocky and twist and turning routes with alot of fallen logs and trunks... then we reached a rather steep place that I thot was rather familiar, like the very steep rock climbing experience i had since p6 for the gunng panti trip in mawai, malaysia... Ok, so we trekked on and i was right, it was the exact same spot... There were 2 ways down the steep 80-85 degree inclined rock path literally. Kaijun first took the right on cos' there were more branches, then i took the left cos' it seems to have more rocks and Jie fu took the right path... Of cos' I made a bad decision cos' as I go down further, I had lesser rocks to step on and lesser branches to cling on and I was stuck for a moment and then slowly sat down on some rocks and continued climbing down like a spider... I made it to the ground after tt...
Then we continued the route while I sang Barry Manilow's "I made it through the rain". Then the next problem came. There were a bunch of fiercesome monkeys on the left side of our narrow path.. They were like on the tree and stared at us... I was like chanting to myself "Dun make sudden movements. Relax" when I caught my eye on a glaring mother monkey... It was indeed scary budden Jie fu attempted to sooth me by telling me how he confronted a monkey b4... Lol, it was indeed a joke. He said that a monkey growled at him once and jie fu, being himself growled back and scared off the monkey.. Lol...
Then we finally climbed another treacherously high series of stairs and reached the slope again while we walked down uncontrollably.. My soles were heating up as they always slid to the front for evry step i take...
Finally, we went to the visitor centre and bought drinks and snacks from the shop... I bought Just tea with apple... Aiyah, i was goin to try justea wif peach but for some reason i bought the apple one cos' the cans were both red.. Gosh, stupid mi.. Then i bought some sweets and walked to the nearest bus stop b4 I went home...
When i went home, I talked to my father, sang some songs, then he showed me how cute and adorable I was when I was posing in pictures at the age of 3-7 yrs... Mi was very qiao in those pics... Very cute...
Then I took a nap until 8.30... Then I ate laksa for dinner and did science wksheet as I watched World Idol results.. Kurt Nilsen won almost evry country except the Arab country.. Then Kelly Clarkson was like bu shuang liddat.. Budden I feel that the Belgium idol Peter shldnt have got 3rd in place cos his rock and roll songs totally suck. He shld join as linkin park's reserve singer instead... I feel tt the more sight appealing and nice voice Heinz Winckler from South Africa singing "I don't want to miss a thing" shld get 3rd instead.. Nevertheless,after tt I watched a lil bit of Holland V and now I am blogging...
MI veri excited abt the trip to Yishun eldery home tml!! Yeah and goodnite...

Tuesday:
Woke up at 9.15am today then rush to wash up and stuff cos' I hafta reach school at 10am... Then I noe I will definitely be late... Luckily my father decided to send me to school and go on a second trip to my grandma's hse at a later time... I am honestly very happy to have such a sacrificing father.. Aniwaez, yeap I arrived school at 10am sharp...
Then I went to Music Rm for VE. Saw Linda Tan, Pin Yan, Shi En, Jeffrey, Zheng Hang and Jason waiting there. Then Linda Tan kept asking me if I was feeling well cos' I tink my sinus *(howeva u spell it) is acting up again. Then Jian Yi came wif the key and we practiced chords harmonisation. I like the tone of the basses and tenors cos' they r indeed good... Then we the altos kept muting our sound and sopranoes was overpowering the rest with a rather harsh tone....
I still think tt Jonathan and William bear a grudge or sth cos I dun remember offending them or sth.... Nevertheless we practiced on Oremi and Ms Tan said tt I sounded sick becos' I didnt project my voice like I always do. So we managed to scrap thru tt song to perform for the Racial Harmony Finale...
Then we practised on a new song "ondeh-ondeh" arranged by Ms tan herself to suit our ranges. The whole thing sounds quite ok. Luckily we havent screw that one up yet, but we are going to perform it during Racial Harmony again....
Then VE ended and me, Jeffrey and Jian Yi went to SIM to have lunch. Found out tt hmmm... Mebbe Jian Yi has sth going on wif Yu feng... Lolz... Quoted from him, "You want to go and have lunch at SIM rite? Both of u go together... I find Yu Feng and have lunch wif him..." and Jeffrey said tt he said to some other Chinese Drama that tried to hug him, "Hey, dun hug me! If it was Yufeng than can!!" Erps.... Must u name names and stuff? Can't he just say, "I'd only allow girls and kwazy Kun Won to hug me???"
So I had chicken chop and that costs $4.90 for the set wif 1 soup and 2 drinks. Then waited for Laurang for 15 mins b4 I could get the Space key and woo-hoo we started our IH play rehearsal.
This rehearsal apparently was more serious but it still sucks... Firstly the position of the actors is too clustered... Then I screwed up the One Voice duet cos the song was too high for me to sing and my voice is turning hoarse... Then we continued to rehearse until 3.45. Then we sat down and played some animal response game, which I lost 3 times 3 times in a row and had to forfeit for evry 3 times I made a mistake so it equals up to 3 forfeits...
I did something that was one of the most humiliating stuff in my life... Something that Ting Wei or Jian Yi will gladly do but Sua Yu still wanted to sabo me... First forfeit - I had to hug Tai Boon... Arrrghhh!!!! Gross... Their definition of hug is to put my hands over somebody and the two hands must cross each other... So I made a ring and slotted through Tai Boon's head without touching him and pulled in one split second...
Second forfeit - I had to hug Tai Boon's leg!!! Ewww.... Never mind, luckily I acted as a sore loser and didnt really attempted to do that... Lastly, the first suggestion was for me to hug Marcus in the front (I rejected) or touch Yu feng in the neck (which I rejected) and the final one was to either hug Ting Wei or Kun Won.. Of cos' I hug Kun Won w/o shame cos' evryone just totally adores Kun Won. Kun Won isnt tt kind of cute like kawaii one nor very charming but he has his own unique personality and eccentricity that makes evryone adore him...
Ok, enuff of the game and we continued the rehearsal... Screw up a little here and there then we went home and I slept until 11.00 after eating a dumpling and xin ramen....
Kk, gotta do science now...

Then after tt we went to buy snacks and drinks in anticipation for the Portugal VS Spain match at the late night of 2.30am... We bought a Nestle Milky Way with Cookies Bar (mi favourite) and 2 packs of Skittles. For the drinks, I clinged onto my favourite Pokka Green Tea cos we finished the 2 bottles in one day and oso had 7Up raspberry and Kickapoo...
Then we went back, had dinner, watched General Affairs 2 (Special Ed.) till 1am. very funny and played com until 1.45. Then we played Beggar Big 2 and I kept winning and enjoyed the status of being the President!! Then 2.30, the match started... I held on for 20mins and dozed off...

A run thru - the malay sit-down dance was ok, then our kompang was oso ok, cos we didnt screw up.. Then Mrs. Giam was lyk veri happy to c me and Jian Yi n Zheng Hang. Then the Malay dance for the groom was very nice as well then saw Daryl from 2E carrying the paper horse dancin around... Lolz... Then after tt, evrything was over and I went back...
erm.. Jian Yi was very despo cos he wanted to celebrate Sua Yu's n Taiboon's bday and asked me along but I hafta return to mi cousin's hse.. Then he veri lonely so attempted to tag along and go to mi cousin hse... Jianyi! How can u become a stalker??? Aniwaez, I managed to shake him off..
By the time I went back, THEY WERE STILL SLPING!! So? Ok I played the com, then they slowly got up... By the time I finished the com game, we switched places... They play the com and I slept cos I was too tired... Then at abt 4pm, I woke up and watched TV. Me too despo n bored so have to watch cartoons lyk TOm n Jerry. Then we had our late lunch, takeaway Fish Pieces Bee Hoon (direct translation) and after tt, mi watched more TV then went home... Btw, the Beehoon is quite nice... Yum

Friday:
Ho-hum... I slept at one yesterdae after watching the soccer match btween Denmark and Bulgaria yesterdae... Haiz... It was so dull tt I dozed off halfway and might as well sleep for the whole dae...
Then I stand by wif 3 alarm clocks to prevent myself from waking up late... Ok so i woke up at erm.. 6.45 and begn ironing n packing mi bg for going to mi cousin hse like mad... Then I set off for band....
The same old long bus route b4 i arrived school then I walked to bandrm. A few sec ones lingering in the room.. Then when I saw Kun Won in the band rm...Yeah... He neva stepped into the bandrm since the holidaes... Hahaz, missing his spastic jokes n lame laughter....
So we started our BaND Clinic again... Boring, then after tt we started on erm.. Hawai 5-O (cant find score), Copacabana by my fave songwriter Barry Manilow (onli one score nd five pple to share), Jump Swing Fever then we had our break then practised Big Fun In The Sun b4 going for the lunch break...
During lunch, me, Khai Boon(13), Kian Ming, Sean, DaXian, Jia Wei, Sherman, Ivan and Yi Shan went to KAP Mcdonalds for lunch.. Then I had McSpicy Double Meal and we settled down and eat lrah... Khai Boon(14)of cos' bein the DM, hafta eat at superspeed and finished the meal in say 13-15mins? Aniwaez, mi and Sean had an eating competition and we stuffed the burger and fries in like mad... Sean's strategy = stuff burger than gobble on fries... Mine strategy = have both at the same time... In the end, I WON!! Yeah! Celebrations n Jubilation!!!!
Then went back to band room and slack a while b4 going for the drills at the terraces... Apparently it was a hot day so we went for the shade and saw Mr. Lawrence siao and did for one and half hrs... A lil itchy scratchy here n there but we tided thru....

Friday:
Slept till 11am today... Hoo-hum... My father left for work at 12am. Then my mom already off for work at 9am. So I stayed at home until 1pm alone... I was like, half-awake so I washed up and decided what I shld have for brunch...
The food at the coffeeshop opp. was beginning to bore me with their limited choices... So I decided to have instant noodle (Myojo Chicken Tanmen) wif egg... Then I watched Channel 8 'chuang4 ye4 wu2 di2 shou3' and my genie... Very interesting... Erm.. mebbe its farni and stuff larh...
Then i dressed up and went for band... The long walk to the bus stop and long ride to school is apparently, erm.. long.... Then I walked to the bandrm and saw CCB overtaking me wif the key like a meh----!!!! Horse... Erpz...
Then Mr. Lim, me and Gordon went into the band rma nd tried to switch on the air con.... Then Jian Hui, Yi Liang and Wei Yang and Yi kun slowly came in and we were toking abt the hot weather and the absence of the ever impt air conditioner....Then ccb went to open all the windows and for some reason switched off the lights... When asked for the reason, he replied, "Now the electricity charges are higher, so I switched off the lights to save money.." Wow... How noble...
ANyway, we survived half an hr w/o air con in the store rm playing bridge with jia wei, terence and gordon then soon, Sean and Kian Ming came and we talked alot until Khai Boon (10 and counting) came and ji he us in the indoor bandrm...
So we started practising the scales and stuff... I find tt my tone is better as said by terence and kian hong and we plated for another 15mins b4 the air con is repaired and we became cooler liaoz after the reworking of the some known as the world's greatest invention.... Imagine if no one had invented the air con, even pple feels tt it is hot, what they can do is only use a fan to keep them cooler a little... Without air con, pple wun be tt 'spoilt' and 'weak' in a sense, dun u think so?
Anyway, we practised Jump Swing Fever... Bob, like always came late and for some reason he FORGOT the reason why he was late.... Haiz... A leopard can never change its spots larh, mi give up on him liaoz...
OK then after tt, we packed our instru and sat down together for some briefing for the Racial Harmony Day which I conveniently have the reason to not go, and after tt we had the dance with the fat woman instructor enclosed in a black box which we called the television... Yet another greatest invention.. Imagine a life without a TV... Blearh... Wad crap am I tokin abt???
Ok, so Sean, JJ, Ernest, ivan and me sat around Terence and niao him lyk siao... Hmmm.. I realli do hope tt I can noe Ernest and JJ better, cos last yr we rarely tok to one another... Mebbe its some misunderstanding larh, I found out tt they dun realli dislike me, so of cos', I will tok to them lyk hell... Lolz
I tink this week, I have got closer to pple like Mr. Khai Boon (11), Ernest n mebbe Junjie cos i didnt have the opportunity to last yr... Nevertheless, they r rather fun pple... and hmmm.. its not bad to be friendly wif them... better have a new friend than a new enemy rite, dun u think so?
Ok, so hafta the dance and the intro to play the harmono game thing, we were jie san by Khan Boon (12) and went home... Hahaz... Then b4 i stepped out of the band rm, Yiyi told mi tt I kana his com to lag cos' I kept msging him when he was playing warcraft... lolz...
Ok so after tt i went home, sat on the bus, the long ride and the long walk home... Then my mom smsed to have dinner together so we did.. I had tempura fish and chips and she had vegetables rice...
Ta-ta... Then i played Gunbound, talked to Mong and Alfred abt the Humans Nite thing, cos'
I am performing and singing and showcasing my explicit talent at the cost of only $5???? Not fair.... :(
So tts all and the interpretation of yesterdae's joke if ur mind could not decipher the meaning and the pun behind it....
Uranus[: Not just a name of a planet. Split the first two letters from the last four letters and read it aloud when Ron said tt to Lavender and u will get the joke...

Wednesdae:
A fairly normal day for mi I guess... OK, so I woke up at abt 8.45am and washed up then went for Euhpo sectionals at 10am.
So when I reached there, I saw Joel(Saxa JC) conducting practise for Khai Boon, Junjie and Ernest. When I walked past them, they sort of gave me a rather friendly look cos' I recently toked to Khai Boon and Ernest and of cos' Ernest will tell JJ and blah... Nevertheless I still felt a lil bit awkward larh...
OK, so I went into the bandrm and saw Terence and Ivan and Sean with other clarinetist and CCB... So we have our routine sectionalss (b00ring) and after tt we went for lunch at Prince with Ivan, Sean, Terence and Kian Hong...
All 5 of us had chicken chop and apparently now, Terence's popularity is increasing at a rapid speed. If this goes on, I predict tt he will be the next HQ, not just in the size larh but as in the medium for the band to be able to transcend into both the brasses and the woodwinds sections. Nevertheless, I had chicken chop...
Btw, Sean had came back from his Penang trip and he gave me a magnet of beers and stuff. Thks. And he oso had other stuff for other pple and one extra gift tt he didnt noe who to give? Erm... I suggest... erm... CCB?
Ok, so after tt we went to the bus stop opposite, actually planning to meet HQ by taking the bus 66 wif my section then play bowling. But I was very tired and didnt want to go... So i told terence tt I will depend on fate. If bus 74 arrives first then I will take tt bus. If 66 came first, I would go wif them. Minutes later, a double decker bus arrived...
I hopped on it... Beside was silence - no lame jokes, no intelligent-yet-no-one-can-understand jokes, no more niaoing of fat and oil. Yep, I sat on the 74 bus and went home...
Then at home, I did some hmwk, chatted a lot and just basically slack the hell out of mi...
Then at night, when my parents arrived home. We watched EURO 2004 Greece VS Spain and made a bet... My father betted that Spain will win 2-0, mom said tt Spain wins 2-1 and I said tt they will draw 1-1...
I ate xin ramen in the first half and then suddenly Spain got one goal... Then second half liaoz... At the 66th minute, Greece scored!!! 1-1!!! I am winning!!! Then my father, already know tt he will lose his bet which is $5, unless Greece scored another one and no one will win, kept cheering for Greece... Then my mom, of cos cheered for Spain... And me?? I was praying tt the score will stay like this until the end of the game!!! And finally, all my hopes and prayers are heard... The final whistle was heard!! I won $10!!! Yeah!!! Mi very happy to win!!!
By tt time it was already 2am so we slept....
THursday: Had an heavy sleep today... I slept until 2am and then I did so hmwk and stuff.... I had oreos and milk n tay chicken for 'lunch' and I worked maths and chinese... I think tt i realli need to move on on my work or else last wk then I WILL DIE!!!
Then I slack, tok and watch TV until erm.. NOW??? BTw, at 5pm I watched a Kids Central Show called "brilliant creatures" or sth liddat... Very interesting... There is a countdown to the deadliest animals and the 2nd is the blue ringed octopus... and the 1st is the Indian man-eating tiger... Cool...
Then the rest of the day is boring.. Mi had chicken rice for dinner... Today's match is between England and Switzerland... Need we say more???
This is a joke from Harry Potter 4: The Goblet of Fire...
Pg 178 - ... the excited squeals from Lavender Brown - "Oh Professor, look! I think I've got an unaspected palnet! Oooh, which one's that, Professor?"
"It's Uranus, my dear," said Professor Traelawney, peering down at the chart.
"Can I have a look at Uranus too, Lavender?" said Ron.
Most unfortunately, Professor Trelawney heard him, and it was this, perhaps, which made her give them so much homework at the end of class."
U understand the joke? Need interpretation still? MSN me if u need it? :P Lolz...

Tuesday:
Mi like always, woke up at 12 as I slept late at nite on monday chatting wif khai boon and ernest till 1 sth... But they r oso very gd chatters and stuff, they neva fail to reply my incessant queries...
OK, so my parents spent a lot of time to wake me up from my deep sleep and we dressed up then went to Takashimaya. Yeah!
So we went to the basement foodcourt and attempted to have our lunches. However, my mom was too hungry so she grumbled and went to Delifrance wif my dad to have lunch instead. My father caught in between me and my mom, in the end gave me 10 dollars for my meal.
So I was in a food-frenzy and began hunting for japanese food, my favourite cuisine, precisely what I was there for. I spotted Tori-Q, Ajisen Ramen, Takopachi, Omu rice and so on but havent decide yet. Then I passed by a store called Mandoyaki... Then I was caught by how it was prepared.. Omigosh it was so very tempting so I bought the one wif Japanese sauce... So wad's mandoyaki? Basically it is japanese noodles with fried eggs into a round splat of noodles with japanese sauce on top of it... There r oso varieties to choose btween cheese, plain or totally covered with egg (omu rice).. Then I sat on some benches and tasted it.. Omigosh, it totally rocks... And its rather cheap at the price of $3!!! Very delicious.. The combination just fills my mouth with tantalising saltiness and the freshness of the egg... Yum-yum...Then I went for more feasting and decided to ate 2 tori-q... (bbq meat wif japanese sauce) and went to look for my parents...
Ok, so after tt my mom told mi tt she brought along a $20 gift voucher at Takashimaya so we went on a shopping frenzy... Firstly, she caught the attention of a blue bag tt had the design of a jeans and asked mi if I liked it.... Then after tt, me and my father went outside the departmental stores and watch tom n jerry at the basement for 30mins then went back to the departmental store to look 4 mom and there she was, still with the same old pouch!! She was like, "Oh, this bag costs $9 so I need to buy something less than $2 to spend the whole $10 voucher wisely... Budden I went to see if I could buy any pencil cases for u and they were more expensive than my pouch. $24!!" I was lyk, erm... "Mom? Can u buy mi a pen instead?" So I bought some nice-nice navy pen and quickly scrambled out of the departmental store and went to the cold storage in the basement...
OK, so we bought some chocolates, coffee powder and chips to spend the remaining $10 voucher and we went home... Of cos' I played more com. and had porridge for dinner and stuff then now I am blogging cos' I have nth to do... Wait gotta catch the last episode of Man at Forty at channel 8... Byebye!!

Monday: Sports day!!!
Today, I woke up at 11.45 am and washed up and went for lunch in some nearby Ang Mo Kio coffeeshop wif my mother, my father and his frenz...
I had duck drumstick rice... Very delicious at the cost of $3.80!! Then after tt, my father and his frenz began talking... His colleagues arh, kept toking incessantly, damn irritating lorh... then my mother like 'bu shuang' then have to control her temper... Lolz.....
Then my mother sent us to Orchid Coutnry Club to meet more of my father's colleagues with 3 other younger girls and one younger boy... So we went swimming first...
We went to the changing rm and I changed larh.. (duh..) then apply sun tan and stuff... Then went to the deep pool and swam for 3 laps then I tired like siao alreadi.. Then after tt joined the young kids in the kiddie pool... We plyed catching, sharks and bait = catching, and climbing and snatching floats and stuff....
After tt we bathed and went for bowling.. The lanes were full so we went to the cafe for tea... I had a grape drink, a box of french fries and a plate of 9 fish balls... The food totally rox! Very nice... But expensive.. Then wif the chilli sauce it is heavenly... OK, enuff abt food, so we went for bowling after the meal...
Ok, i started off badly cos I neva play for a long time and my hand kept going left uncontrollably and so was the bowling ball into the gutter.... Then I attitude and act angry then I keep any how play... Cos' i have no sportsmansip i think so after the first game, i got a low low score of 43!!! Gosh, then I ask money from my father to buy a lollipop, the new one from Chupa CHups, i tink it is called gremarose of sth... Very ex but veri creamy and nice..
Then for some black magic reason, I became better wif more spares and stuff and ended up wif a average score of 92... Then after tt mi and the kiddies went to the playgd and played on the roller thing and played some stupid immunity challenge and went home...
Then I watched TV and had nasi lemak for dinner.... Then after tt watch more TV and I am now blogging... Hahaz...

Saturday: A boring day at home, lonely and procrastinaty... Little hmwk done, little playing done.. Basically nothing done at home.. So nth to tok abt....
Sunday - Picnic at East Coast wif cousins...
Ok, so I, like always woke up late at 10am. Then mi and my mother packed the picnic stuff and rushed to my cousin's hse @Hougang(late by 30mins) to fetch them and drove to my granny's hse @Bedok(late by 40mins) and fetch her to ECP.. By the time we arrived there, the other 3 of my cousins were already there.. And 3 of my cousins were not there cos' they were diagnosed wif the hand-foot-mouth disease... It was in the order of age, the youngest kana first, then the 2nd youngest and the last one which is a sec one now was diagnosed wif it two days ago... So if my calculations is not wrong, I am the next one... Lol... Horrors.. Relax larh, I am not wif it ok? So we met up and settled down and unpacked the food.
YeaH! Food again! How I missed my mother side's cooking... Cos I've never been there for 1 term alreadi.. Gosh, school is so very bz... Aniwaez, we got very spicy but delectable
Curry Chicken!!!! (Not forgetting to mention Fried Bee Hoon, Chicken Wings and a bottle of plain water....) So we ate our fill and walked to the bicycle kiosk....
Ok, so we went there... And found out tt we onli have 1 EZ-link card wif us so we can only rent 2 bikes... So my cousin went to get another nric to rent the 2 more bicycles we need.... In the meantime, we saw this very handsome guy, which we infer was the newcomer in working in the kiosk cos he looked so amatuerish in these stuff and there was a accompanying worker that gave him directions of what to do... Actualli mi and my cousins agreed upon the fact that he had the looks to be a model but we thot that he was too short so nvm, in any case
SIZE DOES MATTER!!! So my cousin came back and we went for cycling....
As we cycle, I kept recollecting and reminiscencing the precious moments me, Sean, HaoQuan, Alfred, Mong, Isaac n Daniel when we cycled together during the free time and during the Amazing Race when Mong was leading the way... I remembered when Khai Boon fell off the bike at the curves near the food centre, the peanut lakes, the way Sean fell, the times we had at the bowling alley and how we tried to shelter ourselves from the rain and when the rain stopped we scrambled back to the main post... Very very vivid memories....
Ok, so mi cousins and I stopped at the Mcdonalds at Marine Cove and bought a hot fudge sundae sprite float each tt costs $1.95... Then one of my cousin, one yr older than mi suggested that we cycle through the "skate-thru" lane and buy the skaters meal... Erps.. Forgive him cos' he is a lil lame... But he's very smart and very hardworking... Meanwhile, after buying the drink another cousin told me that his brother, which is another cousin (not the skate-thru one) was trying free-hand on one of the bicycles while the skate thru cousin and I were buying drinks and guess what? of cos' he didnt maintain his balance and toppled... Then for some domino effect wadeva reason, the other 2 bicycles subsequently toppled as well and caught the attention of all... See, all my cousins are also very silly aren't they? Lol... but very funny...
Then we cycled for abt 1 hr more and returned the bicycles.... And we went back to the picnic area again, stoned there for half an hr then we went back to grandma's hse.... Then we played soccer there.. Kana thrased... I suck in soccer... Cos' i very scared of the footballs... Ermm... I am weak i guess... Then at nite we had abalone soup!!! Yeah! And of cos' yikky yucky vegetables, ginger chicken, minced meat potatoes and leftover curry chicken... A simple yet feastful meal...
Then at nite, we fetched the skatethru cousin home and we went back and I slept... Before that, I cooked 'xin' ramen for supper... Very spicy and delicious, i ate and cried at the same time... Totally rocks!!!

Friday:
Ok, I woke up at 7.45am. Then I rush-rush go and wash up and pack up my bag cos' I hafta go for kompang practice at West Springs by 9am. So I rushed to the canteen and asked for the band rm key from Khai Boon. Then rushed to the band rm, put my bag down and rushed back to return the key... Then Ms Lam was there and she kept saying I neva wash my face.. But I kept saying I did and tt I was just veri tired but she just can insisting I neva wash my face... Lol...
Then I sat on bus 67 then 175 to West Springs and saw Zheng Hang already waiting.. SO we both walked to the canteen and rested for a while when I received a sms from Jian Yi saying tt he was lost... Erps... Ok nvm, so we went to the kompang room and began practising... The beats were so damn off lorh... There was supposed to be an on-off beat harmony but somehow the 'selang' (the off-beat rhythm) just didnt came out... The 'lalu' also was always beating too fast in the rhythm and always not consistent... So we play the kompang like siao for abt 1-2 hrs.... Haha.. I remembered during the water break, one of the cleaner asked me and another mainstream boy what we were doing in this school. Then the mainstream boy replied, "Oh, we are learning how to play the
kampong ." Lolz... So stupid rite? Cannot blame cos... erm' lame mainstreamer wad?
OK, then after the break we had more practices... Then me got praised by Tan Hui San Ms for being very serious during the practices whereas the mainstream boys got their kicks from slapping each others' butts... Lameasses.... Then the sec 4 west springs boys oso praised me for playing it very well and I was chosen to be in one of the eight for the Racial harmony kompang thing.. Hahaz... Then at abt 1hr before the ending, ting wei called and asked me what time the practice was... Ting Wei... Return back to sec one larh.... So he sort of made it in time before the ending and was chosen as well to take part....
And which iSparkian did not get chosen to take part? Zheng Hang? Nopes, it is Jian YI!!!! Hahaz... And he was chosen by Tan Hui San to be the groom... Hilarious... The West Spring teacher says tt the bride is very chio and our Mainstream boys said 'lai4 ha2 ma2 chi1 tian1 er2 rou4!!" (Toad lusting for swans' flesh..) Ha... Quite true larh.. (oops... sry... :P)
Then Tan Ms took taxi back to boarding sch and I followed... Mi went back to band rm and they were still learning the dancing thing... Of cos' I joined in the eurasian dance and we were supposed to follow the fat woman instructor's moves of marching patriotically, then spread out chest/breast, raising of hands to see her fat tummy, act cute monkey swing-about of hands, then finally the a-go-go swing for 2 cycles... Erps... It's realli stupid but for some stupid reason, I enjoyed it! After tt she commented in front of the band that I danced veri well... Mdm Leow oso thought so.. Hmm.. Mi boosting my self-esteem now... Lol....
Then it was time for each section combination to dance... First it was clarinets section, then saw Yiyi kept dancing off-beat and stuff. He looked very vey cute when he is dancing... Lolz.. Very comical i guess... Then Yi Liang the sec 3 ispark senior was overreacting, act as if he very enthu liddat... Oso very funny.... Then it was the trombone section and saxaphone section, then saw Jun Jie dancing oso very funny cos' he dun seemed very enthu....
Then it was the eupho, flute, percussion and tuba and horn section.... Thot I was the one soaking up all the attention until the fat instructor placed ccb bside me.. We had the chinese dance and the malay dance... Mi neva learn these b4 but heck larh just dance. Then CCB dance until so like wushu liddat and in the end he got all the attention... Lol... But in the end Nicholas from Tbn section oso said I learnt the dance in a miraculous speed... Wow!!! It's indeed my day!!!
Then we had more yucky lunch (forgot wad we had) then mi and Wei Xin had to see laurang bcos of the humans nite thing... Then wei xin kana interviewed whereas I got my MRP lit. review back... 14/20?? Aiyah, not bad larh.. COuldn't care less but jeffrey hasnt handed in his yet so he is dead... Laurang threatened to call his mom and stuff... erps.....
Then mi went to look for the band again.. Then we moved to the multi story carpark for the drills... We hired an external drill master from Tanjong Katong top military band school to coach us.. It was damn tiring but nevertheless it's like survivor - a test of endurance... Lolz.... Then we finished the camp at abt 4.00 and I went home to sleep like xiao...
At abt 10pm then I woke up and watch the Mummy returns (pre-recorded) till 2am and slept somemore... Lolz....

Recount of the past two boring and tiring days:
Thursday - Ok, I knew that it will happen. After such a nice Wednesdae, Thurs and Friday were hell!
OK, so I took a bus to school wif my large bag, with the plastic bag of the sandals dangling and my green bulky sleeping bag and sat on the bus like always... A bumpy ride larh... So when I alighted, I was a little giddy and was dragging my bagpack literally to school.
So we were allocated to our classrooms. For our euphonium section, there was only me and and terence so we had to share the classrm with the trumpets section wif Dion, Clarence and Zhu Hui. The horn's section [ccb] shared wif the flutes and the saxas shared with tubas and the tbone shared wif the percussion section. OK, so tt's tt and we went immediately back to band rm to do more boring stuff..
Firstly, we had to stock check all our instruments. Ok, we have onli 2 pple in our section, so how many instrus are there to check? Phew, a small number of err... 9 instruments! OK, so we finished our job veri quickly and moved on to cleaning, oiling of valves and greasing of slides in no time at all. Lucky for us but poor thing for trumpets and trombones sections. There were near 40 instruments for 2 pple in their section to stock check and they were alreadi half-dead just carrying the instrus from the outdoor band rm to the indoor one at EP3 block.
Ok, so after that we had our lunch... Erm, did I mention lunch? Bllearhh... We had nasty long beans, quirky tofu and other healthy ingredients u can find... Totally gross, the only thing nice was the chicken... Then I went to see Laurang to get my MRP back and give her the IH play sypnosis and went off for more score-packing. It was tedious but fun as it wasn't as tiring as the stock check... Then we had erm.. some free time and we waatched the football league and stuff... Then went bathing...
Hahaz, ok after tt we have dinner... Yum-yum, we have hash brown, some nicer veges, chicken and yummy potatoes! Burpz... Veri nice and I loved it... Then at 7.40pm, the whole lot went to the band room but it was not opened so evryone waited outside... Hahaz, then yiyi came and sae 'So cute!' at me... Erm... I was wearing my navy t-shirt and shorts onli wad... But he looks veri cute oso, cos' he looked very blur and dazy with that $2 plain white shirt and khaki shorts.... Btw, Sean is in penang, kun won is at korea and rujun's at genting so I thot I very bored in band camp but got Terence and Yiyi, then band camp a lil bit nicer...
Then Khai Boon told us to go and take the supper from the green store auntie and I missed the boring warm-ups! yeah :P... Then when it was my turn for tuning again, Mr. Lim and Yeo kana angry again and Mr. Yeo brought mi outdoors to correct my tone. He kept emphasising on my throat to be open and breathe wif my diaphragm... He says tt kun won can actualli hear my tone and I give him total respect for being more qiang than me. I mean, yesh kun won is definitely more qiang than mi ever since the first day he switched from tuba to eupho section. I think he makes a good SL but he needs to work on the respect for the juniors to listen to him. I think terence have the same problem now. Good luck aniwaez...
Then we played Jump Swing Fever, sounded crappy and it was 10pm = Supper Time!!!We had bee hoon and milo and then we went back to our respective classrm to slp... Sleep? Of cos' not! I popped into the saxa's rm and they sort of welcomed me (cos' i thot they always attitude mi cos i am a geper) and we played bluff until the size grew from 4 to erm... 11!!! Yes! And Mr. Lim oso participated in our game too! He's a bad liar though. cos' I kept catching him bluffing and Damien sitting bside, of cos' oso keep catching mi... Then Teng En' said tt I am a cheater and I cheat in evry card I put unless I have more than 20 of them... The record holder of cos' was sparstic yet act-innocent but very farni Ernest who got all 52 cards in the game! Lolz... Very entertaining.. Then I went back to the Eupho-trumpet room at abt 2am and slept....

Wednesday!
Happy and light - cos' realise tt I was too oversensitive!!!
Good things that happened today!
1. Me and Sean are good friends once more - We chatted since yesterdae and during sectionals... Both of us feel rather guilty of attituding one another but that's common between frenz isnt' it? We had a rather nice time together wif Rujun during sectionals today cos' CCB was fixing some french horn! Sean, being the ASL, got a gold horn todae leh! Poor Rujun, I think he is a little bit jealous arh? Jkin larh... But we had made up and we are still good friends! Yeah! Someone to tok to in band again! :D
2.Relationship with Terence is much better! Haiz, I once hated my SL terence cos' I felt that he was a fat lump of oil that is useless but now I changed my mindset. Yes even though he is STILL FAT, but I now dun niao him and we are on better terms now... We talked and gave each other advice and encouragement... Mebbe Eupho section can actually be saved from the fate of breaking down as we get friendlier! I find that he's actually quite lenient and fun to be with... Lame but still a nice company... Three Cheers!
3.Yi Yi don't hate mi! - He said 'Hi' to me today! Yeah! I think I am making progress in maintaining a better relationship with him and the sec ones! After taking a little bit of advice from kh to take care of my image and Sean's to irritate Yiyi to get his attention (i dunnoe if these works) but phew... at least I noe he attitude me for some other reason but he don't hate me... Ok! Wish mi luck in noeing more juniors! This is the first step! Hope that the band camp tml will bring us more closer and noe more about the sec ones! :D
4. Watched "Day After Tomorrow"... Hmmm.. A very nice show cos' the effects do rock.. Oso can do Geog or Eng ACE about this movie review.. But do i need them? No! I maxed them liaoz... Haha.. Mi SHowing off like siao... Finally realised Daniel's past nickname of "Look at that. Have you ever seen the air so clear?" adapted from the final sentences of this movie! Rather nice lorh nevertheless....
Today's one of the better days in the holidays! But tml got band camp... Haiz....

Quoted from Sean's blog: [Analysis of whole matter] -
"Monday, June 07, 2004
Anyways, i was actually thinking whether I shld continue attituding khee xuan. It sortta happened like this. We were at the bus stop waiting for the bus. Then my bus came and khee xuan dragged me behind. I broke free and waved but the bus juz...flew across.
THEN khee xuan's bus came right behind mine and he took it without hesitation! Shld I continue attituding him r not?
# posted by Sean @ 4:25 AM"
If I am saying this in my point of view as Khee Xuan, of cos' I won't want you to continue attitude me like how you did on Saturday cos' band is very boring without talking to you and erm... mebbe fighting with you? Yesh, I really do enjoy ur company as my best friend in band no doubt. But I already apologised tonnes of times and I boarded the bus with hesitation cos' I thought of either to wait for you or keep my family waiting for me for dinner... What would any of you do if you were caught between this dilemma and you have to make a choice in 5 sec time? Not defending myself but, yarh I really am sorry that I boarded the bus but erm.. think it the other way, maybe the attituding part should stop?
Look, me and Sheng Wei I think have left another good friend Jian Yi stranded outside the MRT when we boarded the MRT. Jian Yi of cos' like you were angry and smsed us "F*** you!". Yet the next day he acted attitude but he simmered down in a few hours time. I am not sure that you all have the same personalities but yes, I am trying very hard to be a very good friend esp. to you and my trusted friends as much as possible...
I really wish that we can forget this whole thing before you go off overseas tomorrow cos' you are one of the only trusted few I can have after the departure of sec 4s and the decision of attituding thing is still up to you larh...
Erm.. My apologies for posting this msg... Just hope that you will understand my plea... Cos' I very despo for trust and friendship nowadays... Me feelin very lonely if you read my previous posts.... :(

Tuesday: IH Play Rehearsal Day
Started off the day as early as 7.30. Took a bus to school at arrived at about 8.30am just in time for the practice. Went to Space and saw Sheng Wei, Yu Feng, Jie Fu, Zheng Hang, Jeremy and Jian Yi already waiting there. Then Sua Yu and Yong Lin came and Kevin Cheng Mr. and we started to 'rehearse'.
Erm. Evryone had a low energy level so we weren't very enthusiastic about it. And then at about 10am, we showed Mr. KC the play then we talked a little bit about workshopping. Then we went for lunch at Adams Food Center when me, Marcus and Jian Yi took a bus there and was 1 min earlier than Yu Feng, KC, Jeremy and Sheng Wei who walked to the food centre by foot. Ok, so me and Yu feng settled for Prawns Mee. I bought the $4 one with 3 nice prawns inside and Yu feng bought the $5 one. Marcus and Sheng Wei had the nice and famous nasi lemak that made me jealous cos' their's looks and smells nice and it's cheaper than mine! Jian Yi had Hokkien Mee (low-quality one) and KC bought char kway teow from the same very no-business shop. Jeremy was glued to his book and only bought a cup of chin chow.
Marcus told us tt the chin chow store have a very cute slogan 'If our drinks don't taste good, you don't have to pay." Lol, very cute rite?
Then we went back to Space... Saw Yong Lin, Zheng Hang and Jie Fu already there playing some cult and satanic CO songs as usual. Erm... So we sort of talked with Mr. Cheng about teachers and stuff, then began singing then suddenly an Aphelion senior i tink just came into space with Mr. Cheng and went into the inner space.
Ok, so erm... Tai Boon was erm... u-noe-wat again, then keep looking into the inner space as if the Aphelion guy was a monkey in the zoo enclosure. Quoted from him, "I thot all Aphelion people were stupid and ugly. But this guy is cool!" - Tai Boon.
Then, Tai Boon for some reason, kept chanting Sean's name, I dunnoe why the freaking world Tai Boon adores his name so much but erm... Shld I protect my best friend from the clutches of mr. Ditch-the-b****???
Ok then we played with Mr. Kevin's orange gold sunglasses and took turns wearing it, ok, apparently with the ugly face of mine, the wearing of glasses made no difference to my ugly face.... Tai Boon wore it with his scarred acne-ful face and dirtied the specs and was more hideous than ever... Then after using tissue paper to rub the acne germs off the specs, we asked Yu feng to wear the specs. And omigosh, u shld have seen it. He look so damn cool, just like his personality!!! Then Tai boon kept saying,"wow.. You r so damn hot!"... Erm.. Yar mebbe I have to agree this time... More disinfection of the glasses then Marcus wore it... He looked so cute lorh!! Marcus has a very funny personality in my opinion, and he's rather likeable in class I tink, not popular but very likeable in a sense. Then we keep asking yu feng to wear it so there would be more sight appealing...
DEFINITION OF SIGHT APPEALING:
WHEREBY ONE'S LOOKS APPEAL TO OTHERS OR AT LEAST DOES NOT ADD ON TO SIGHT POLLUTION LIKE AN ACNE-FUL FACE... RITE TAI BOON?
Ok larh, so stop niao-ing tai boon alreadi.. Ok so we practiced some more... As the singer's clique that is comparatively smaller we have to rehearse lesser as compared to the non-singer clique in our play. Of cos, so me, Jian Yi and Tai Boon played wif Yu Feng's hp and we send a 'i luvya' message to tai boon's hp! Evil but it is rather fun...
Then rehearsal ended and we went home and I slacked some more until 9pm then I watched TV until I slept.
Btw, 2 of my cousins are diagnosed with hand foot mouth disease... Poor thing but fortunately i am not infected.... It was oso the Venus transit so yesterdae was very hot!!!

Sunday and Monday:
Sunday - Yet another slacky day... Mi woke up at about 9am then played computer games and stuff. Then parents woke up and we decided to go and have our brunch at Ang Mo Kio. Erm... The original food store we wanted to eat from was closed cos' we forgot that it was closed on Sunday so I had to settle for some lower-class C graded sesame oil chicken and rice instead. The claypot sesame oil was too oily and the chicken was too salty. Never eating there again.
Had an afternoon nap then woke up at about 5pm. Then my parents wanted to stroll along the shores of Changi Point... Boooring... Then I kept putting off this idea saying to my mom that it is not my-age and it is so un-relaxing and stuff cos' she is most of the time the swing vote in our family. I suggested to go to the Book Fair instead to purchase 3-for-$10 archie comics and she agreed so erm... Yeah!
Then we went for dinner at Maxwell Food Centre and I had very nice char kway teow.. The one featured in "Absolutely Singapore" with the banana leaf package at only $2.... It is so rare to see food at only $2 now rite... And it is sooo nice!!! Yum-yum... Then we sat in between two drinks store.. Mr. Bean on my left and a store that sells (5 star ranked by themselves) aloe vera drink store both at $1.80 each... I was in a dilemma at that time then I dunnoe wad to choose... Aniwaez, here's a joke in Archie Comic about 'dilemma' (its an intelligent joke so if u dun understand, erm... u noe...):
Moose: "Pun My Word"
Miss Grundy (the teacher): Moose, can youuse a sentence with the word 'dilemma' in it?
Moose (the dumb guy.. blur oso...): Duh.. I don't think so Miss Grundy. Why would I want a sentence with dilemma in it?
Haha! Betcha don't understand? Need interpretation about this joke? Lol... :P
Ok... So we went to the book fair at last... Found out tt it was the last day of the fair! But there wasn't any last day offer! And I arrived at the times department and saw Russell Lee signing his own books. Why is he always masked? Does he see ghosts evrywhere that he has to mask himself? I kept staring at him then he waved at me! I was like rooted to the ground and smiled at him... Omgisoh! Why did I do that for? Was he warning me about the red lady in cheongsam beside me? Ok, I am gettin lame here.. Let's continue...
Erm.. Then I went for my hunt for Archie comics... Yeah! Finally found at the "big book store' exhibit... K, so i purchased it w.o question and was jumping with joy about it... So mission accomplished... Just when I was about to collect the money from my parents, they said "I thought I gave you $50 for holidays?" Omigosh, I am so damn cheated!!! Eww.... First was the band camp money and now the comics money! Hey! Unfair parents... Neva trust ur parents!!! Lesson learnt. So we continued to shop at Suntec when my father saw his colleague working on the production of
Singapore Idol! Then he said that there was a guy with a guitar whose singing can touch others' hearts.. Hm... Mebbe if I put my soul in the song I am singing, I can do that too! But how do you touch people with songs like erm... Heaven knows or other disco-ramba n conga music?
Then we walked to Watsons and we bought a big pack of Oreos and Chocolate Gauteau Pocky at $4.40 for 4 small packs with 3 sticks inside! Very expensive but it is very nice.... Then went to Carrefour... Bought the tay chicken lemon and supreme at $9.45 for 2 packs.. Very yummy... Then I went to the CD n VCD department.. Watched the korean horror film 'Into the mirror' with the slogan 'Never look into the mirror when you are alone..' Shoosh, I have a big one in my room. How am I going to do that? Ok, I shant scare myself anymore... Then I also watched a little bit of Ben Affleck's Pay Check.. Erm... at least Ben Affleck is sight appealing like Jennifer Lopez... Erm.. Wonder why South Park satirises Jennifer into a b**** and Ben into a male gigolo... Lolx... Remembered to scene where Eric gave him a handj***... Dirty but funny... Ben (cartoon) was like, "Jenny... Erm.. Jenny... Woof.. Woof.. Argh.." Then Eric was like looked at his hand (the one he put on make up on to look like Jennifer Lopez and the one Ben affleck was going crazy for)and said "Gross... " and went off... Deliciously interesting and hilarious....
So we went home after that I continued my computer game playing... Then it suddenly went poof and the whole CPU and monitor went black.... Then my father said that my hardisk had a virus so I am using his now... Then had leftover bu nice black pepper crabs for supper... ANd I began reading Archie comics... Veri nice....
Then I slept.... Yawn...
Monday - Woke up today at 9.15am for VE. Reached school at 10am sharp... Erm... We began the voice placement and Linda Tan said that I have a nasal tone... Wadeva have to practice this tone off. She commented that I have a very nice voice and she liked my high register and said that it would be good if I transfer this light tone to my alto range cos' my alto range is too harsh... Then for some reason, i dunnoe why William today like irritated by me or sth... He kept saying "Stop it larh..." or "Can you don't exaggerate or not" for wadeva I said... Why evryone attitude me one... Haiz... Heck care larh... Then me, Jeffrey and Jian Yi went to coro for lunch. Again, I had chicken chop and it is very filling... The auntie kept despoing to advertise her sesame oil chicken but no one wants to buy! Lol... Poor auntie and her desperate attempts... The word auntie makes me laugh cos I vividly remembered years ago when my mum mispelt 'auntie' into 'untie! untie!' erps... She indeed has BAD spelling and I MEAN IT!!!
Ok then me and Jian Yi took bus home... Lolx... Remembered Pin Yan called Jian Yi a cow bcos he sing like one, and other comments like "Hi! Water Buffalo!" and "Cows and Crayons!" to him... Simply funny... Lolz... Then went home and more afternoon nap until 7.30... Watched Harry Potter... Then I had instant noodles and Tay chicken for dinner at 9.30... A simple and delectable fare... Me blogging now... Still refuse to do any hmwk.. Haiz...

Overview of first week of holidays (Boring still): NO HMWK DONE!!! ARGH!!!
Aniwaez, the week started off badly with Monday: Went for some crappy IVP fair for some presentation stuff then kana reviewed by 'external expert' mentors from some NUS/NTU professor lecturer or wadeva u call it. Ok, so we got some scores from 34-51/60 from the mentors and stuff. I think we did a bad job and stuff... Then the lecture theatre at the NUS i tink was so very cold that almost evryone got a cold. Even 2O's muscleman and 'god' Yam Huo also got a cold as well... Phew, only Esmond my IVP group mate and Rosyth best friend brought a sweater. Lucky him. Anyway, we had curry puff, some coconut nyonya cake and sandwich for tea break. It tastes not bad but I was still very cold. Then we had nasi lemak for lunch. Yummy, the otah is a little bit oily though. Erm.. then the rice and the chilli nice... But all of us were disgusted by Jie Fu cos' he kept talking crap and after evrything, he became so despo for wadeva that he ATE AND SWALLOWED CREAMER in front of all of us! Eww.... Gross.... Then after that I was starting to feel a little nauseous with a lot of HCl (Hydrochloric Acid) produced in my mouth. Then the lecture kept showing some stupid adult-act-as-school children's video about Intellectual Property. It was a damn lame drama. Then after that, I cannot control and went to toilet and attempted to puke but still cannot. The disgusting teh susu smell lingered in my mouth... Eurgh... Gross, isnt it? After that, the whole thing ended, the whole CHS ispark IVP pple went to the cafe. I bought yet another yummy curry puff and fries... It rocks.. Pity i was too full for the chicken sausage puff. Casey kept tempting me with the nice nice smell on the bus.. Ah-poosh! Ok, then we went back to school, then I felt cramps in my stomach and began breathing heavily. I think asthma acting up already. After what seems to be like a year, we finally got dismissed and went to my grandma's hse. Then I noe tt my father was also sick. But he managed to get 3 tickets for Thurs Harry Potter show! Yeah! Then got free bkmark for the movie and it rocks! Then at night, went to my neighbourhood doctor, and she gave me stomach cramps, flu and breathing medicine with the cream for my white spots.... My white spots totally make my face look ugly, even though it is already ugly but anyway, it is very guai4 larh... That's the start of this week - a bad and sick one...
Tues - Went for VE Alto and sopranoes sectionals in the morning despite the reminders of my parents that I was sick with MC. See I so very enthu rite? :P Then I saw Shi En and Clement outside the Music Rm and went to Mr. Goh and asked for the key. Meet Darrell on the way back and he said tt he conveniently forgot to remind his section so it is only him and us. Then when I went back to the music rm, Pin Yan and Shi En emptied my whole back, MRP file and medicine on the floor like a mess. Of course, I didnt want to say anything, and just kept all my stuff quietly so that they will feel guilty or sth... Then the sectionals began (chaotically)... Then after 2 hrs of practice, me and Pin Yan went to Coro... Then I had lemon chicken rice again. Neva finish again, then I met my father's friend's daughter, a NY Sec 3, we always talked during meeting up at chinese new year [*bad engish...] then Pin Yan was so excited cos' he wanted to buy hair dye from the NTUC but was disappointed that he could not find the Loreal brand he wanted.... Lolx... Then I went home and slacked...
Wednesday (VESAK DAY!!!) - Invited my cousins to come to our hse and other relatives of cos', then we started this new Mahjong fever and evryone played the game and stuff. Then we were bored and went outdoors for cycling, rollerblading and kickscooting and a little bit of basketball.. Missed this outdoor fun since I came to CHS... Then we played some more Mahjong and we had dinner - Pumpkin soup, Vegetables, Pepper (red and green) Pork cubes and CRABS!!! [not forgetting to mention ginger fish as well..] Then we played soccer in my room and I sort of improved my goalkeeping skills but it still sucks basically so I shant comment any else more about my soccer skills. Erm.. Then we talked a lot about other stuff. Shared chips and some chocolate... Played more computer games. Redloaded Lf2 and played... Then it was 12 midnite, the adults finished their 'real' Mahjong game and we bade each other farewell until mebbe next wk? But it was an enjoyable day, at least I am not all by myself anymore.... (cos' I) Dun wanna live by myself, by myself ANYMORE!!!
Thursday - Slept until afternoon, parents got back home very angry at each other. Then my father said that I might watch the Harry Potter show alone... haiz... why always fight one... Sigh... My father said the reason was bcos' he gave me $50 for holiday spending including lunches in school and my mother thought he gave me alot of money and spoilt cos' she conveniently forgot to look at my calendar rite above my com rite now to see how many days I have to return back to school for some extra activities... Budden at about 2.00 we set off as a family to J8 for the movie... Erp... The movie basically in one word to describe it, B.A.D cos' the events are very not in depth and the transitions and stuff, it is not the movie about the bk, but just relating the events itself. Then there was nth said abt Quidditch, exams, the fate of Harry going to Hogsmeade and stuff... Very bad, but the effects was quite nice...Then met Shi En outside the cinema. Then me hungry so went to buy Teriyaki Chicken Burger from Mos Burger while my mom went shopping for clothes. THen shi en smsed me 'Woah.. Eating burger arh..." then I found out that he was buying more tickets to watch Shrek 2... Wow.. Movie marathon ay? Then my family went to the market place and ate squid head from Old Chang Kee, erm.. and some fish cake and egg tart... Yumyum.. Then I went home and watched american idol finale encore until 1pm then I slept.
Friday - Woke up at 12am again... Then dressed up for band. Had laksa for lunch.... Then went for band... More boring practise warm-ups yet effective exercises by mr. lip hua lim.... Then me and Sean walked to the bus stop to go home... Then we talked some more... Then his bus came and I pulled him... Then he broke free, ran and signalled the bus... Too late, the bus drove off... Lolz.. Then he act-angry again... Erpz... Sean Don't Fight Fate.. You have the makings of the next DM. Like Daniel oso, keep acting angry one... Very cute and farni no doubt... Then my bus came and I happily sat on it and Sean still acted angry... Then he smsed me on the bus that he was going to attitude me... Erp.. Sorry larh....
Saturday - Band again in the morning... Sean began to attitude me already, we didnt say hi to each other in band, we didnt even look and smile at each other like we most of the time do... Haiz.... Then the practice was boring... Threw my face when I cannot pitch the high G in front of the whole band... Toldya I suck in playing Eupho.. I said to Mr. Lim "I can sing the note but I cannot pitch it!" Shld I pursue singing instead? Btw, today is the auditions for Singapore Idol! Yeah! None of my business rite... Shldnt think too much... Budden Rujun told me during pack up tt Sean isnt angry with me anymore but he kept criticising about my singing and other stuff in front of Harrapan and Rujun during band... If he isnt angry with me then why he still attitude me? Is he then being petty? or isit me being oversensitive like always? Then after band, 11 pple went to Prince for their lunch... Apparently I am sort of the outlier cos' I kept quiet the whole way long... The 11 pple are:
1.Terrence
2.Sean
3.Yiyi
4.Rujun
5.Zhu Hui
6.Damien
7.Melvin
8.(k)Jian Ming
9.Sheng Heng
10.Ivan
11.Me
and we meet 12.Kian Hong on the way but dunnoe who he went after that... Haiz... Sean and Rujun was playing with Yiyi again and then Ivan, Terrence and KIan Ming talked lame jokes... Haiz... Am i that qian4 bian3? Erpz.. Its like I keep having a feeling that Yiyi dun lyk mi and he sort of attitude mi when I said bye bye to him but he responded back when Sean said hi to him... Very jealous... Haiz.. Then now Sean also attitude me... Mi got a lot of self -reflection to do liaoz... Dunnoe larh, we hafta see how it goes, it doesnt pay to be unpopular in band and I swear it is bad.....
Then I went home after that and slept until 6.30. Then watched more south park videos and singing songs... My singing for "I'll Neva Love this Way Again" Jasmine style still sucks... Mebbe my singing isnt that good after all... Whadda u think?
Signing off,
