new skin. suits my mood right now.

no i'm not gloomy and drab. but it's victorean now. 19th century. get the drift?

nevermind.

school started, as many of us know, and school ended for some other people. it just isn't fair. pffft.

monday - school. mr wong talked about las vegas. very funny. caught up with latest news, blah blah blah, rushing through holiday homework..blah blah blah.

tuesday - short day, read 5 people you meet in heaven. great book. what can i say? fabulous, smashing amazing, in short, read it!

went to TWSS again for a TU run, or actually half a run, since the other half is tomorrow. great day. anthony's so funny.

today - i am so darn sleepy. my eyelids just couldn't stay open. i'm serious. and i have a sore throat too. this isn't a good time to get sick. i can't miss lessons. and i don't want to miss the other half of the TU @ TWSS run. anthony and manfred and daniel crack me up. it's de-stressing.

old songs, old blues.

whatever that means.

you ever got this experience where you wished really hard for something....and it came true? cliche, but came true?

it happened to ME!

it just did. lol. but i'm not telling what it is though. really stupid.

i'm sorry lijie if i'm boring you these days with countless descriptions of people who made me sublime! =)

and i know you won't see this anyway!

oh wait. what if you do?

whatever. then it means you miss me cos you're at my blog =)

you guys remember one of the set songs for YI idol, what can i do by the corrs?

here's the song. i think it's a great track back from 1998.

enjoy!

oooh.

my graphics card hates me =(

well currently it doesn't so i better make full use of this opportunity.

List Of Events That I Can Remember Since June 13 + MINOR Details
oh wait. lemme tell you what i'm doing now. i'm trying to access friendster, finding out where is that stupid thing where you can accept friend requests and i STILL CAN'T FIND IT! STUPID FRIENDSTER!

back to topic.

1. W330 & W391 CHALET @ Costa Sands NTUC Sentosa

what did i do? bbq-ed, watched television, had pm, slept, froze, thawed, ate, played card games, froze, thawed, walked around the beach, went swimming, got thrown up and down like a flyer in cheerleading by jeremiah and james, bathed, ate more, slept, froze, thawed, walked around, slept, froke, thawed, had great GREAT cell group meeting, watched tv, slept, froze, thawed, back home.

3D2N of fun and torture. why fun? chalets are fun. that's common sense. why torture? cos it was CHILLY IN THE ROOMS! now i know how an ice-cube feels like. that's why everytime i sleep, i would freeze, then thaw out in the morning.

2. SHOPPING. no details. most of you knew what happened already anyway.

3. THUMBS UP RUN @ Zhong Zhen Zhong Xue

HOT FACILITATORS + cute secondary one students + extremely big school = great saturday! when i say hot i mean hot. but i'm not mentioning names. later SOMEBODY will make fun of me. oh it's 2 somebodies. aw. whatever. *squeals* EIIIIIIIIIII!
and that school is really big. and it looks very chinese-style. and it's VERY TROUBLESOME to go to. and the sec. 1 kids are really funny lol.

4. WATCHED MOVIES

rented them. corpse bride, sharkboy and lavagirl, erm, memory comes to a blank here. to find out more, read my holiday journal.

here's ONE THING i didn't do.

HOMEWORK.

i can't stand it.

here's a tribute to all fathers. most of you should have watched this. for the benefit of those who havent, i present to you....HARD GAY FATHER'S DAY!

just watch it. it's hilarious.

GUESS WHAT???

i'm actually doing homework!

yes, at the computer. my homework is in the computer. that HeyMath thing.

man. it's awfully hard. crazy. i still don't get why i need differenciation in the future. unless i'm becoming an engineer or architect. low, low chance.

the batman rocks.

ooops. not supposed to be watching tv.

back to differenciation, then...

pooooooey.

i realized i didn't blog about something rather important.

How I Spent Last Thursday

why important? you'll find out soon..

have you guys heard about Thumbs Up? yusoffians should have.

so anyway, i attended a training session last thurs.

i still won't call myself an official trainer yet, though. long long way to go.

well anyway woke up early, met henzy at bukit batok mrt and we hopped to clementi to meet this guy nic who drove us down all the way to tampines.

my first thought was, when we reached tampines, if you abandoned me right here, i'll cry straight away.

rather mazey, the place.

i loved the TU office! it doesn't even look like an office. more like a home. lol.

and the people are all vivacious, loud, funny people.

that's what i loved about TU.

anyways, i learnt quite abit during the training session. one was that(i summarized it) a simple gesture to you may mean a lot to another.

won't go into furthur details. LONG.

i love joel! he is like so funny. he's this really great guy. and he brought his two adorable children to the training session too. hahaha.

and there's jia huey. she describes herself as innocently evil.

i'm inclined to agree XD.

and a whole bunch of other funky people you can meet.

spenta great thursay! =)

and after the session, which ended about 4, spent time playing the stick game(don't know what's it called) with dan and ryan and henzy.

didn't get the objective of the game.

so we played uno after that, TU style.

i'm telling you, it's a killer. you practically can't win.

oh there's this great great crepe stall there. banana and choc. ben was buying it, and he was like, everytime i come here, i HAVE to eat it.

i think i'm doing the same.

and after all the games, went to this place beside tampines mall for dinner. i don't know what it's called. we ate at long john silver.

oh during the training session, they even provided little titbits, like raisins, chips, sweets.

so i wasn't very hungry at lunch nor dinner time. kinda messed my tummy up, but it was ok.

ohhh go to henzy's blog for pics!!

this post is dedicated to my DEAREST parents. so scram if you don't want rants.

now that's something i don't understand.

it isn't fair, when parents can do something and then say that we kids can't.

for example, slamming something down when we're angry. my mom ALWAYS does that.

whenever i slam something, she fires up.

okay so i fire back. but that's not the point.

and my dad is like, worse.

he, at the freaking(i'm angry enough to use fucking. i just won't. oh oops, i just did.) old age of 40-don't know what, still throws tantrums.

when somebody does something he doesn't like, for example me coming home really late, like midnight or something, he totally shuts off.

he doesn't show in his actions or whatsoever that he is angry, but he just won't FREAKING talk to me. like ignore me.

well. these actions are total contradictory to what they say when i throw tantrums(not that i do, my brother does) or when i slam the door in frustration.

and why, why, WHY make mothers so naggy???

i DO do my homework. it's just that its the weekend, dammit, who does homework during weekends?

ok so my brother does but that's because he's a little baby who scared of everything from ants to dust. so naturally he'd be stressed if he didn't finish his homework on time.

and it's not my fault he's such a weirdo, cos my parents and my previous maid spoiled him pretty, even until now. at his age(primary 6), i was whacked nearly twice every week til i got pretty used to it.

well they can blame themselves if i talk back cos i've hardened up.

but my dear little brother cries as easily as paper can be crushed.

i say he'd finish his 6 mock exam papers in one week if he didn't spend most of the time playing his gameboy under the table where i "can't see".

and he wouldn't have to make up for it during the weekend.

look, i made progress already. i'm half-done with my english phrase book, half-done with that nan hua paper. it's not bad, for 2 weeks.

for me, i mean. usually i start around the 3rd week.

so why can't i take a break from it now huh? you didn't have to slam the bottle on the washing machine, dammit, woman!

and she nagged me bloody long for not washing my shoes. i've fucking washed them already, okay.

and she totally never says thank you for anything. all she knows is to nag if i didn't do any her chores.

well i have half a mind to go I WON'T DO ANY OF YOUR CHORES, THEN, WE'LL SHE HOW YOU HANDLE ALL THE CHORES ON YOUR OWN!

but i know even so she won't learn how to appreciate me. HAH.

and you know what's worse?

SHE ALWAYS EXPECTS ME TO THANK HER! it's one of the things she nags on too.

goes on and on about us studying hard so that we can achieve more in the future and other shit.

it all adds up to giving her a better life and a mansion and a maid and a chaffeuer to drive her to cloud 9.

I AM NOT DONE.

i haven't finished with my dad, that stingy old man.

he accounts and accounts and counts and counts all the bloody finances til my head wobble. he's nearly like that stingy guy in the christmas story by charles dickens. i don't know the title. but i'm sure you've heard of it. if not ask me lah.

he goes on and on about saving money and i don't know what.

EXCUSE ME???? you give SO MUCH allownace every month, i TOTALLY can save up!

oh wait. now my mom's at the dining table peeling something. i bet she's gonna start up.

i can go on and go on about everyone.

don't you go saying i'm not being appreciative. i appreciate my parents. but not when they're throwing childish tantrums or shooting their mouths about.

you know, my parents ALWAYS think they're right.

yea. did you know they believe i've lost my virginity?? sheesh. i think i took more sex education then both of them added up together to know what pre-marital sex is about.

just FYI i totally still have my virginity.

its a super long story to why they think so, and only one person knows this story. *winks*

and even on computer stuff.

add up what my brother, father, mother knows about computers, its probably not half of mine. and i don't know a lot either. in fact i probably know only about 20%.

but they go on and on like they know everything in this world.

and my dad. did you know, he was pissed off when i suggested getting tuition, he didn't want to pay the fees.

not that he did say. but usually he would volunteer to pay anything educational.

he was pissed that i didn't want him to teach me.

not that i didn't want to. but the way my dad teaches, it's exhasting. i only asked for A, not the whole alphabet. you didn't have to throw in numbers too.

so i practically had to make him pay. he's so darn rich. so he shouldn't be complaining.

rich and stingy...

it's not only in my allowance. he won't let my mom off either, when she goes on one of her shopping spree.

GAHHHHH!
