tired but happy.

the week that just went by was hectic,but quite fulfilling.a hell lot of fun,thats for sure.

*acjc dep auditions: it's OVER!!(: thank God that me and lesley got in tgt man! i was so scared cos denise told me that the intake is like 30 only!!out of what,hundreds? :/ friggin small la. i love denise,she was the one who told me i got in and i remember screaming and jumping around cos i was so happy. seriously,i had a horrible feeling abt the audition..forgot my lines and all.but the trs were supersweet.well,at least one of them was.the other didnt smile at all.anw lesley and i made new friends,richenda and edlyn from chijkc and chijst respectively. they're really nice. we had to wait extremely long for our turn so i amused myself by people watching. i've concluded that dep ppl(and those who auditioned for dep) are super drama can.and quirky! there was this girl in a newsboy cap,long skirt and long sleeved top with her hair in 2 low ponytails. and while we waited she took out a knitting ball and started knitting. eccentric,no? hazel told me ytd that in ACSian theatre there's super alot of politics,more so than any other cca.righttt.i henceforth vow not to involve myself in them,as far as i am able. for a more detailed acct of the audition go to lesley's blog: greaseit.blogspot.com

*prom: not bad i guess. nth much to say abt it cos honestly i wasnt looking forward to it much.note to juniors: whatever u do,dont wear black to prom. black is like.......ubiquitous. seriously,so many ppl wore black.it made me feel extremely small and insignificant.that's the dress i wore.it's vintage by the way:

*post prom:now this was the bit i was looking forward to. thank u dear char for everything,i had a blast!we cabbed from regent to 4seasons---5 extremelytired girls in two cabs.but mm the room was great;i love the toilets man.we talked abt alot of stuff,cant remb the exact details cos my brain was woozy.i think we slept at 3plus?with wet hair. and hehhehehehehe sorry suyin zara that i took up so much space. but at least i dont KICK ok. the next day we ordered breakfast and i decided to be healthy and ordered oatmeal.which was a mistake,cos i was trying to enjoy eating my (healthy) oatmeal while the others gobbled their waffles n strawberries. and,the oatmeal wasnt even healthy anymore cos i doused it with chocolate/sugar/whatever else i cld find. after breakfast we watched friends and then we had lunch. CHOCOLATE FONDUE= bliss bliss bliss. i had a chocolate overdose that day;don't wanna go into details. next was shopping.then i went to shern's house for her surprise party. this is her highly adorable niece shanna who got me all excited:
i said it b4 and i'll say it again.the two things that turn my head are: 1)cute babies 2)hot guys
i had to leave early at around 11pm..so sorry shern! took 171 back to 4seasons.i love travelling on my own at night,when there's hardly anyone and i can revel in my solitude and spend time with God,and er..with my mp3. we watched step up @ 1:05am @ cine. its friggin good and channing is hothothot. pity he's bisexual.he'd make an awesome catch for some lucky girl. char/suyin/drea were SMITTEN. and no one was bothered by my constant proclamations that he's a bi. anw,by the end of the movie i was tired/hungry/cold.so back at the hotel i ordered mushroom soup,it was nice. (:
the next day we were supposed to wake up at 9:30 to swim/tan but whatever,we woke up at 11:50am and had to check out by 12. so we rushed.rush rush rush
i was so,so,so tired in the afternoon. all these late nights do not agree with my biological clock.at youthphoria someone told me i looked drunk.and i er,fell asleep during pastor bernard's prayer;that was the extent of my sheer fatigue. today in church i was super shagged too.and apparently i still look drunk.haha mayb ppl associate tiredness with drunkeness cos tired/drunk ppl both have bloodshot eyes,i suppose.

6 of us in the toilet


this is me and andrea(:

holidays are here (:

i love having the freedom of choosing what i want to do and when i do it.

ytd was so fun!we went to cathay to watch casino royale. it's very good(: daniel craig is seriously not bad,even tho he's supposedly not as suave as previous bonds.the poor guy's been getting lotsa flak for being "too ugly/too short" but cut him some slack la! his acting is not bad. he's not suave like peirce brosnan but he's rugged and buff.and,his blue eyes are so nice,so intense. blue eyes are recessive genes,btw.which makes me extremely sad becos it means that even if i marry a caucasian,my kids still won't have blue eyes,tsk.

and we ate ben n jerry's,which needless to say totally negated my afte-o's-i-shall-lose-weight resolve,but heck.it was goodstuff! chunky monkey+strawberry cheesecake+fudge chocolate+good company= (: er.of course i didnt eat 3 scoops all by myself laa.we shared the ice cream..and also the cost,the calories,and the pleasure. sharing is good!

there are so many things i have to do this week.seems like post-o's is much busier than during o's...but the busy-ness is a nice kind of busy-ness,if u noe what i mean. and the acjc dep audition is on wed!prom is on thu! really hope the silly band won't bail on us,i'm praying for a miracle. :/

back in action

back! after a more-than-a-month-long hiatus :) man it feels good to be blogging agn! my endorphins are seriously in overdrive right now...its so surreal,i cant believe that it's all over mygosh. this whole month has been really......woosh.it came so fast,and it's over so fast.four yrs of studying,cumulating to november2006. i'm just so thankful that God saw me thru this period,and took care of my health, and drew me me closer to my friends and all that. and drew me closer to him as well.it's funny that i experienced revival just the day b4 amaths and chem. but yeah i was reading rachel's tears again,and wallowing in the unpleasant fact that compared to racheljoy,my own spiritual life was so shallow and so stagnant. i dunno how it happened, but now i'm super charged up for God and the feeling's incredible. like zara said, when u're spiritually attune,everything else falls into place. yeah, so i guess thats the best thing i got out of the o's---a renewed faith in God. (:
anyway. i went to vivo straight after history ytd,like i said i wld! its awesome! detractors were telling me tt it was ultra boring..but its not,take my word for it. or maybe u shldnt cos i'm prone to biaseness HAHAHA.but i really think everyone,shopper or not,shld visit vivo at least once,just for the experience if nth else. i remember the first time i read abt vivo was from a magazine early in the yr,and i was so impressed by the artist's impression of it that i cldnt wait for it to be built. hehe. the only bummer is that candy empire is a let-down.it aint as big as i envisioned it to be. but ahwell. ok i'd like to emphasize that i do not live to shop hor. sure shopping's fun and all,but giveme coffee with a good friend over vivo city any day man. shopping isnt fulfilling,it's just fun. i want my life to be fulfilling satisfying and well-lived,and not merely fun.
which is why i thot that ytd was so awesome,cos i got to catch up with zara. (: and then we met pcg and i got to catch up with shern and chanel and the others too. but the best thing was doulos. doulos,fyi, is a ship that docks at diff ports at diff times of the yr.and they have a bookfair and a fulltime crew that lives onboard (volunteerily). and,they travel around africa and asia spreading the gospel. is that cool or what? we walked arnd and zara bot this oscar wilde book and then all of us sat at the rooftop amphi @ vivo and talked till 10plus with two of the crew members. ohman, that was the best way to spend the last day of exams. (:
reached home at 11:45. but for some unexplained reason i still had tons of energy so i ended up sleeping at 2.
later gg to lishan's hse for exco mtg. (: yay

~tribute to the meepok uncle: i'm really so sad he passed away.he's such an integral part of sc,and his meepok is almost synonymous with the school. i wasnt a big fan of meepok cos i hate noodles,but it gave me a sense of comfort to see him everyday at his little stall,smth that remained unchanged ever since i entered sc in pri1. he'd be there selling his meepok without fail. he was there even during my mum's time! i really want to go to his wake,but circumstances prevent me from doing so................ bleh nvm. my mum went two nites ago,she can represent me i suppose. there's a rumour floating around that straits times is gg to run an article abt him. but whatever it is,i'm really gg to miss him so much. sc wun be the same agn w/o him,w/o miss heng,w/o mrs phuah.
in the span of a yr,everything changed.
