Btw, I took my height today and...

Woot!!!!

I GREW 0.5cm.

Not a big deal to some but it is to me. As long as I grow taller bit by bit, I'm contented.

I know this sounds stupid but when I was in Pri 5, I aimed to be 1.8m tall.

During my secondary school days, I realised that I couldn't reach that so I decided that 1.78m would be heaven, or so it seems.

Until I reach 21, I still have potential to grow. So bones, work your way up!!!

:D

I overcomed the phobia I've had for years. The worst in fact.

But hey, it wasn't that scary after all! Hahaha.

Blood into the bag... sqeeze the pressure ball (?), get the meanin' yeh?

Results were out today. Gone with the wind and never set to return. That's all I'm gonna say. You decipher if that's good, bad or okay.

I went to Chinatown today and brought some stuff for my penpal, whose birthday was approaching and I'd thought I buy something meaningful that would represent a little bit of our Chinese culture; the Singaporean Chinese culture. Heh.

I dunno what to write on the letter. Am still brooding over that.

My mum asked me if my penpals ever send stuff back to me when I actually put in effort to do these for them and my mind just went blank for a slight moment.

I don't know why but penpals do hold a special place in my heart, sometimes perhaps even more special than people you meet here, on this tiny red dot (on the world map)? Hmm... In that case, I feel happy giving and making them happy (at the same time promoting sg, lah. Haha). I have a high level of faith in my penpals but when time passes and disappointment strikes, the level of faith lowers to just a puddle of water on the road. Serious.

okay enough of that, I'm just happy to have overcomed my phobia! And... I loooovvvvve the smell of the air in the hospital. Call me crazy but it's true! ^w^

Blood in the bag and handling contact lenses (only once!)... I have a phobia of silly things. Haha... while others fear the dark. Hooo.

:P

1) Revamp my blog with a fresh layout. (soon, alright!)
2) Read at least 2 books.
3) Go watch a movie since the last one I had watched was the latest Pirates of the Carribean.
4) Write letters to my penpals.
5) Visit the CD and book stores. I miss those places.
6) Go on a photography day-out like I did in the past.
7) Buy something :P ...
8) Exercise... I miss cycling around the estate in my mountain bike. Swimming too! And although I hate jogging, I'm gonna make an effort to do that.
9) I've not painted since last year. I will try to paint. But I need some inspiration first!
10) If possible... I wanna bake my cookies!!! (sadly I don't have an oven at home) I plan to try something new but have no definate plans yet.
11) Make my German noodles! HAHAHA. Right, I miss Germany. :(
12) Maybe I should get myself a German penpal. Hah. Maybe.
13) Repair computer.

Right... 8 out of 13 stuff left to do, although they aren't compulsary at all. Heh.

Schumacher is retiring!!! Aww... but Kimi is taking over him when he retires. Yey.

I spent almost 2 hours yesterday to complete a "painting" on the computer. It was just some rough sketch so I didn't expect much from the picture. I could have improved on many areas but I was just lazy and lethargic to do so. Imagine using your computer mouse to draw and paint on the computer for that period of time. Your hand will not only ache but your back will too. Bleaugh.

Here goes:



I began with the person first followed by the extra bag and the other conspicuous items. I wonder if the decision to include the items made the picture look cheesy. In any case, it's done and I can be bothered no more. The legs' part got me thinking about how I should go about it and too much flesh will make the picture look :S. Haha.

Ah, I'm really feeling lazy. I don't wanna blog so much. And oh, my layout is still in the midst of construction cos I left it aside after being left without inspirations.

Ciao.

I've not taken a tablet for years and when I did today, I asked my mum a silly question.

"How do you take a tablet?"

"Err, just pop it into your mouth, take a gulp of water and swallow it?"

"oh yeah......"

Haha.


Later during the day, I said this:

"okay, now it's the time to drink the tablet."

HAHA! What was I thinking?

And for once, I didn't find this season's SI episode boring. Yesterday's performances were great, except Paul's. I've never liked him from the beginning of the season. Sorry if you are a Paul fan. I just wish we can have a female SI this time. My top 2 contenders are Jasmine (cos she's the only female. But hey, she can sing well!) and Jon. Hady is good but I prefer Jon.

So... as long as Paul's out tonight, I'm okay with any of the top 3 being the next SI.

And oh please, girls, don't cry for the male contestants! What's there to cry? I'll never understand (for SI that's all).

okay, ciao!

Sadness is not good.

So, be happy!

I'm really getting addicted to the 2 sitcoms and I can't wait to watch them later.

All you need is humour.

I hate it when adults are angry and they take it on you. I've had enough.

Maybe that's why I don't wanna grow up and be forever 16!

Freak you shitty adults.

Met up with a cca mate this morning for swimming. Ah, I miss swimming soooooo much! I'm glad I could swim after a long time.

I need to buy a pair of googles. Really.

Lunch was freaking expensive in terms of my budget. I will contemplate whether to eat at that school cafe again.

Zatoichi is a brilliant movie! I recommend pple to watch it. The library aircon = brrrr~

Right I have no idea what to do tmr. Should I write letters to my penpal or catch a movie in the morning? Hmmmmsy. I'm tempted to go on a photography day-out as well. Where should I go then?

Thinking wastes my brain cells. I wanna conserve them for the next semester. Therefore, I'll take things as they come tmr.

Bye!

Steve Irwin died today, on September 04, 2006.

May the Lord send his angels to comfort his loved ones and that the Lord will show mercy on him.

Let's pray in the name of Jesus Christ,

Amen.

I don't know why but I've been feeling tired than compared to being in school. Perhaps due to the late nights studying for exams.

I was supposed to be jogging in the morning (which I did, jogged only a few rounds while chatting) but I felt tired when I woke up cos I was running nearly the whole time throughout my dream! I haven't had such a dream for a long time. I felt as if I was in a Hollywood action-packed movie. Geez.

There you go... I can't wait to go swimming.

Belgian Chocolate from Coffee Bean was not bad. Florida Natural's apple juice claimed to be 100% apple juice and it's reaaaaally sweet.

I need to repair my computer's cd player and the 'o' key! Right, another to be in the list.

Nice meeting with you, Jan. I will try eating their main dishes there one day. The pasta really looked yummy and the price was extra yummy too. Haha.

Sunday was kinda boring until the trip to the supermarket after dinner. Haha, what can I say, people feel happy when they shop at the supermarket.

I'm gonna eat my German breakfast tomorrow! Yeah ahah call me crazy now that I'm German crazy. I bought my packet of square oats, :S, is that what's that called? I'm lazy to go to the box to check. And put some yogurt on it.

Geez, I reaaaaally miss the breakfasts I had when I was in Germany. To me, it was considered luxurious but to the natives, it's their usual breakfast?! Like wth. Haha. I don't eat much for breakfast so eating a certain amount seems rich for me.

After which, I'm meeting Jan for a jog. Haha I dunno why I have a sudden urge to jog. The first time ever in my life. Really.

I bought my facial gel! Yey. So far, Nivea suits me and I feel that their product is good. But I bought Garnier cos I've never tried it before. Clearasil doesn't really work for me though.

Yey and what a silly tomato I am, I just learnt what a moisturizer is. Haha I've always heard that word and assumed that it was something unlike what I've heard today. And I know how to use it now. Haha bleh :P.

oh so the dance performed by the local artistes at the President's Star Charity was salsa? Haha I wanted to learn that kinda of dance last time. And gosh, my bro actually put his alumni down! Haha SP is performing some sort of skit an he said it was stupid and didn't admit he was from there. Lol. Shhh =X. Well, I found it... not quite to my liking although I liked the Mr Bean part.

My bro bought Asahi beer and I asked for a bit to be poured into the bowl and in the end I got thrice the amount instead. I took some time to drink everything. EEE yucks. Wine is DEFINATELY better than beer. Haha I've never tried liquor though. I will, in the future. Maybe when I reach 18. I'll try a sip. ;)

Now I have a phobia of HL milk. When the ad came on TV, my mum said,"Hey, HL." Like it's my favourite, bleaugh. Believe or not, that will be my first and last time drinking HL milk. :P I tried Magnolia's oat milk last time and I loved it cos it was tasty and nothing happened to me, no abdominal pains. Hmmmmsy.

Good night! :)

Saturday, September 02, 2006

I did a list in August about what I will be doing during the holidays and I'm gonna add a few more.

1) Revamp my blog with a fresh layout.
2) Read at least 2 books.
3) Go watch a movie since the last one I had watched was the latest Pirates of the Carribean.
4) Write letters to my penpals.
5) Visit the CD and book stores. I miss those places.
6) Go on a photography day-out like I did in the past.
7) Buy something :P ...
8) Exercise... I miss cycling around the estate in my mountain bike. Swimming too! And although I hate jogging, I'm gonna make an effort to do that.

10) If possible... I wanna bake my cookies!!! (sadly I don't have an oven at home) I plan to try something new but have no definate plans yet.
11) Make my German noodles! HAHAHA. Right, I miss Germany. :(
12) Maybe I should get myself a German penpal. Hah. Maybe.

Right, there goes! I just want to enjoy my holidays. I opened a fortune cookie this year and it said that I needed a vacation. How true! I dream, I dream, and I dream. Haha.

oh, and my abdominal pain ain't so bad already.

You know, my ambition is to be a travel journalist. I have had pple laughing at my ambition. Like oh, you like to travel so u wanna be that. Well, imo, it's always good to dream big and from there I work towards my goal. It's so ironic that I'm in a business-related course cos I haven't got the slightest dream of being a businesswoman or that I've always disliked wearing office clothes. Everything's so rigid and restricted, just like JC (no offence to jc peeps but I've never liked that kinda environment). I wanna work in a flexible environment which allows you to be empowered to make your own decisions. oh, this is so "management-like". Haha.

Certain pple just accept their fates or destiny but I don't believe in such stuff. (Hence if u ask me if I believe in fate, I'd say no.) It's in your hands to create your dream. Gosh, I've been so preachy. :P

Alright, cya!

Watching the matches was definately an eye-opener, in fact I'd thought they were better than last week's.

Didn't feel comfortable since morning. Didn't feel like talking or smiling whenever the pain came.

Lesson learnt: Never to drink from those HL milk packets ever again.

And... we got deep dark blue for our new boats, nice colour. The only blue boats you see around in the pool area.

Btw, I was shocked to hear that 1 boat costs $2000?! No wonder they got new boats only after a long time. The seniors said that our batch was lucky. Haha.

okay I can type no more. Really don't feel good. Lactose intolerance you might guess. Well, ain't surprising since 98% of Chinese people suffer from that. Source from wikipedia, dunno how true, since those pple tested were from China.

But it's really weird, I've drank fresh milk before and nothing happened. It was been many years since the abdominal pain came 8 hours after drinking the milk. Gah.

Bye.

FINALLY,

the Internet connection at home is fine.

Had been "suffering" from Internet withdrawals lol.

Seniors having competition tmr and am gonna go support them as well as watch the matches.

We, the freshies, will be getting new boats, the ones SP has... the milky white ones which I really like.

Yeeah...

:D

-EDIT

I borrowed the BoB book from the library yesterday and it's 333 pages worth of reading. Not many pages but it's a challenge for me cos I can never sit still to read a book for a long time... That's why comics appeal to me. Haha. Actually, I'm contradicting myself cos I remember I took 3 days to read all the Tintin books during sec 1. Each day, 2 Tintin books were borrowed during recess time and read them during lessons (not paying attention shh!) at one shot and returning them straight after school. :P

I'm gonna make sure I do a considerable amount of reading during the holidays since I've not read "thick and wordy" books since the 3rd Harry Potter book (the first HP book I read before the rest) I'd read. I dunno how long I'm gonna last but it's worth giving it a try.

okay I've been yakking too much. I've to sleep now since I've to reach sch tmr @ 7 plus and I take about an hour to reach there. Sheesh.

Gooooo(d) night!
