Beverly House Visiting

Today I was late for CWT lesson for an hour. Same old problem, I cant wake up ): one of my greatest problems.

After school, we went to Beverly house for chinese new year visiting. Her mum's curry was so delicious that i ate 3 bowls in a row.(: Yummy! We cant find a suitable table to continue our majong, so we ended up playing computer games. Just downloaded some music mania game, kind of addictive. Actually, all kinds of games are addictive to me, including facebook. I want the cheat code!!! Haha..

After her house visiting, we went to Tampines Mall to watch the wedding game and AiLing joined us! So surprise, to be honest last time I was quite scared of her because she was so violent and rough that she spit and she called people by pulling their collars and shirt! But now she seems to be much more better, and she actually forgot all about us, I think she spoke less than 3 lines to us today. The show is okie la, I only like the parts where they quarrel, very funny.

perfection

Today afterschool, we went to solphine's house for Chinese New Year visiting, she ordered astons for us and we played mahjong all night long till 11.30p.m. Chai Min is lucky enough to live only a few steps away from her house.





I hate it I hate it I hate it when im not in control.
I hate it when everything seems to be out of my control.
I hate it when I dont live up to my perfection
I hate it when you dont live up to my perfection
I hate it so much that giving up is my next most appealing option.

Don't suffocate me, miss perfectionist.

Worst Presentation

Today our WMP presentation was a total disaster. Full of errors. We were all shot until speechless. A heavey cost of 30% of our coursework gone! It's reallydemoralising. ):

And I lost my camera charger this time. I just don't understand why all the wiry wires stuff in my home likes to play hide and seek with me.

Hais, bad day is all i could say. Sighhhh~~

You ask me how am I?

I frankly tell you I am doing bad bad bad bad bad.

I want to turn into a maple leaf and fall from a tree. swing swing swing touch the ground. Then full stop. That's what i want to be at this moment right now!

Yep. This is it. Full stop. Don't fall me into the river, because I dont want to flow. I dont want any motion at all.

Happy Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year

We went visiting early in the morning. Hais, I guess most of them don't even know us. Nevermind, neither do we.We just sit one side, smiling at the noisy crowd of familiar strangers swamping in and out and getting our Hong Bao.

Afternoon, we went to the children's disabled home to distribute some Hong Bao's too.

And we went back home for dinner. My granny can really cook! She's a typical housewife who can stay in the kitchen up to 8 hours, cooking the best soup for us.(:

Happy Chinese New Year

I went to cut hair with Hazel and bought a few watch from hougang mall. Beverly came over my house later, ended up doing IBS assignment for me! I really couldnt finish my work): thanks thanks thanks. (while clearing up my house for Beverly's arrival, I found my handphone cable!)

We went back to Ipoh on Saturday Morning. It Is a bad bad day to start the journey, situation would have been much better if it's on Friday. The 12 hour car ride had made my teeth, my butt and my kneecap went numb!

New Year Eve

Grandpa brought us to some palm reading shi-fu in a moutaneous area. He suggested that my brother to be adopted as some budda's son because of his birthmark. He said that I am artistic because of the moe I had below my nose (but all who knows me jolly well knows that I cant draw at all!)

A pomelo tree (:

Then we went for a malay wedding

After we had a reunion dinner at some hotel (really delicious food)! and we head back home, wathching TV and playing fire crackers with my little cousins.

My mum was playing Yoga with them

'

Actually I quite enjoy the new year eve where we will all stay late and watch tv, talk, play and enjoy the great time of bonding togehter(:

Shopping Spree

Today went for a real shopping spree with my girlfriend Hazel. A REAL fruitful one. It's some sort of last minute Chinese New Year Shopping. Within a day, I spent $130.

Hazel's First High Skirt Set

MINE!

Our Fashion Taste is getting abit different recently(: but I simply love going shopping with her! My best shopping partner!

Beverly is coming over my house tml, have to go pack my room now! Nobody shall get to see the state of my room now.

I will be going to Malaysia for Chinese New Year soon, will only be back next Tuesday. Tata! Happy Chinese Year to all(:

Kayking Photos

I finally got some of the kayaking photos(: Thanks for the water-proof camera from Wei Yi and Jian Hao.

My Buddy Fly(: She ALWAYS save me during water activities! She was there for me for snorkelling, boat rowing and this time kayaking! Thanks! Love you deep deep, next time I will learn to swim, and we can venture out for more water adventures together!

I Love this photo, Weiyi and Nichloas they are so buddy!

And poor Nicky lost his spec while trying to capsize us):

Hais, sad to say but this seem-to-be fun filled activity had spark off the war. You ask me where to I stand, I will opt for peace.

University Scholars Programme

Today, we attended National University Singapore USP talk. I see how they offer the sky for you to open your wings and soar. A vibrant campus life with so many opportunities lay infront of you to claim. A sneak peep of your destiny.

One of my most satisfied achievment in the past 19 years of life is my PUB Scholoarship. But for USP, I'm totally giving it a second thought. Essays, interviews they alone make me fearful enough. (especially, when I have no strong command of English and no knowledge on current affairs!) The other psychological fear that put me back is the thought that I will be competiting with people from HCJC, VJC, NJC.. blah blah blah. The inferior part of me has totally pushed me to the bottom of the well. That the sky seems too far for me to reach.

Anyway, I never see myself as leaders of a prestigious cooperation, I cant perform under stress, under the gazing eyes and expectations. But rather, I see myself working with the kids,community service around the world. I need smiles and appreciaition, not power and judgment.

tution teacher wanted

My younger brother, Andy is finally picking his interest in study( Maybe because of the 'O' Level Exam this year). I'm very glad for him, truely I am.

The problem is at the rate that he is bugging, surrounding me with endless flow of questions, I will go nut soon. Too easy questions from him, I got annoyed. I don't seem to understand how he can take so much time to just understand a concept that should have learnt in Secondary 1. Too difficult question , I am too busy and too lazy to think. I have already got no time for all my projects and assignment! In conclusion, any forms of questions from him is deemed as irritation to me.

Yet, at the same time, I'm glad that he persisted me with all the questions although I'm showing him that kind of attitude. My brother, go. Go forward to clear your doubts at all means! I seriously don't know why, I can teach tuition to kids so patiently yet I can't teach my brother. We need a tuition teacher, urgently. Before his temperature for work went down again.

Tolerance

the flames just flickered out of rain
and forbidden tears spread like rain
dear love, just what could we ignite
instead of leaving me a lie

Jun Lin's bitter-sweet poem for me!

Bathing can be such a pain! I had got sunburnt and muscle aching all over my body. All thanks to Kayaking. I'm sure last time I can toleate more pain, but now.....

I whine when I got food poisoning
I whine when I got blister on my foot
I whine when I got sunburnt

When I first got my stitches at the age of 7, I did not even utter a sound.

Kayaking

Today morning went kayaking with the Green Volunteers at the Bedok Reservoir. Very fun, but the sun is scorching directly onto our skin. I realise i need more muscle strength and perserverance!

Our IS module require us to talk to a stranger for 30 minutes. I hunted for the right person for like 2 hours plus. I went to pet society( purposely sign up an account for it!), i get my friend's friend account and chat, but they all end up in failure. Either i got ignored or my partner gave himself off during the conver. At the last resort, I went on yahoo chat room!

That was the most horrible choice I have made, the people in the chat room are only interested in obscene talks. I was even scolded by them for rejecting their invites. I swear i will never enter that yahoo chatroom! but the last few minutes, I'm so so so lucky to have a 23 year old doctor from India came and talk to me.

He's really really interesting. Really thanks Raj, you have made my day(:

Personalitly Test

Very true indeed. 90% (:

It's worth a try at learnMyself.com and it generates you a long report on it.

WHO AM I??

You rarely get angry and it takes a lot to make you angry, however you experience panic, confusion, and helplessness when under pressure or stress. People generally perceive you as distant and reserved, and you do not usually reach out to others. You tend not to express your emotions openly and are sometimes not even aware of your own feelings. You dislike confrontations and are perfectly willing to compromise or to deny your own needs in order to get along with others, however you are willing to take credit for good things that you do but you don't often talk yourself up much. You take your time when making decisions and will deliberate on all the possible consequences and alternatives.

Boom DE YADA

We went to a Marine Oil Spill company in Jurong for a site visit today.

Dealing with the imperfect truth ( the water is black, the fishes are dead etc). Am I ready to take on the helmet and the jumper suit? and like the song it sings " i love real dirty things".

p.s We fall in love with this song during the Indonesia trip because that is one of the few channels that are in English, and we watched it almost every other night.(Han Rong's recommendation).

thanks to Jian Hao for the video(:

Communication

If we march through life pretending to smile while inside we bleed, we have dishonoured the relationship.

p.s The best thermometer of your spiritual temperature is the intensity of your prayer.

Lead me Lord I pray, because I startled at every conversations.

you got it right girl

I can't really believe my secondary school has only got 46% passes in English O Level! But it's still heartwarming to hear that we do have people who score straigh As for all her 6 subjects(: Punggol must maintain certain standards so does EWT!

Calculus is driving me nuts. I have been doing it for the past 1 1/2 hour and I only got 1 question out of the entire exercise right. ArRRRRRhhh!!!! Scream out loud.

But surprisingly Hazel, you got it right about it.

it's too good to be real, like one-day fantasy

My new pair of sneaker is really giving torture to my feet! Pain and blisters with 4 straight days of full day wear, even my muscles are aching because the way I strain my feet to avoid pressure on the blisters when I walked.

Thanks for JunWen's parents for sending me home after work, if not I have to endure through that extra 15 minutes of walk.

OUCH!! Is my walk of life destined to be full of pain?

p.s feet me beautiful.

O level result

O Level result release TOMORROW!

All the best to all especially to Raishun, Yong Jie, Daniel, Ida and Xuan Hao, hope your hardwork did pay off well(:

Ronnie's BBQ

SATURDAY EVENING

I went to Ronnie's 21st Birthday BBQ. Happy birthday Ronnie(:
emm.. we actually pranked him by giving him a cat food as birthday present, and they feed the cats on the spot. (We are still thinking of his actual present to give on his actual birthday)

Our birthday MAN

XUAN HAO!!! HAHA, SO HAPPY TO SEE HIM AGAIN! We did catch up quite alot during the BBQ session, school, family, friends,calculating how much gain from the BBQ, best marshmellow competition blah blah blah. Well, really hope to see him back to cell group(:

Guitar lesson is cancelled again, kind of dissapointed. Especially when I'm so hooked onto guitar for this few days.

NP Open house

Friday Night

I got to talk with my Dad (new name: George) via the webcam. My grandparents will be coming over to Singapore in April! I cant wait,I cant wait to see them after 10 years of separation.

Saturday Morning

In the morning, I went to help out with some prize-giving ceremony with Jian Hao, Daxino and Wei Zhi, we had a buffet lunch before I head back to my open house duty from 11-3p.m. We met some REB Year 1 who commented that I look old!!! Hais, indeed they had reminded me that my teenage years had flew away.

The Clean Energy Management is really a hot course to go now solar energy, wind energy, hydropower, fuel cell etc etc, of course our water technology is also not too bad. But this year they do offer CHILD PSYCHOLOGY!! That's my exact dream occupation(:

Heh, but I did sneak out a few times. First time to see the Campus Super Star ( Some of them really look like small boys, but they do have strong and powerful voices!). Second time Daxino they all brought me a melted ice cream and we went to try the Archey with Jian Hao and Wei Zhi also. (thanks to yishan!) To my surprise, my aiming skill is still not as bad as I had imagined. I did hit the bull eye once(:

My brother Andy and his friend Nicholas friend came,but they were rather dissapointed becuase they failed to find any pretty girls in Ngee Ann that are comparable to his TP 3rd Year Biomedical guide.

Lost cable

I still cannot find my handphone cable and my Fujitsu Laptop has no bluetooth!
Today we had very nice "traffic light" combination in class. I think you will only understand what I mean if I can post the photo here.

Don't date me out now because:
- NPMC Report & Presentation ( Half-done)
- CWT Report (1/4 done)
- WMP (undone)

and next next week I have
-SHWM Report (undone)

My birthday babes forgive me, I will make it up for you.

Cell Retreat

The photos are finally out! I still remember the retreat is on 13 to 15 December 2008. I will never forget these dates! The very first time I got to go on a cell retreat. And it's really a memorable and meaning one.

I guess this is the last FUN post I will have before I start nagging about all the projects and assignments and how all sorts of school work are trampling me!

so ENJOY!

Words & Worship - Wee Loon (our Camp Commandant)

I guess I had really met God that dayor at least a glimpse of Him. I was so undistracted by things such as parents' nagging, school works and other loads and responsilities. It is a real time a submission. Other than the service that I slept through, which I'm still feeling abit bad of it. I REALLY hope I have the self-dicipline and control to keep that up during school days. That is one of the main reason we chose to name our a&c group self-control. I found out that is not that I cannt meet God or God refuse to speak to me and touch me, it's that I am not even available to him. How available am I to you?

Games! War Time.

Ochard Road

dinner out

Pairs of Siblings

See how WIDE is Jackson's mouth ( Junlin, you can consider taking him into your BMW club)

FREE candyfloss for our sweet Gerline ( Heh, actually is FREE for all for quee)

Highlight of the night: We don't know how we ended up singing Christmas Carols on the street with some strangers. We weren't even sure of the lyrics, but we were in high festive mood then, so we hardly care. My first few minutes of street busking!! It's really unforgettable experience, the love and the warmth that have surrounded me, and the amount that we have radiated out to the public, it's unimagnable! I hope the public have enjoyed our ANGELIC voices(: I'm sure many hearts were melted that day.

Raishun celebrating her sweet 16 with us(:

HOME SWEET HOME.

I brought back home some God's word, some fun and crazy memories of my group of wonderful friends, and some touching and memorable ones. I brought back FULL.

Eco Camp

Back to the post about Eco Camp

I wasn't really excited about the camp, but this whole Eco-camp has really good programe laid out for us. (Especially for the first timers, I think the Year Ones will enjoy themselves lots!)

We went to Ulu Pandan River to pick rubbish in the morning.

Proceed to Sentosa for the bonding games. This is the first time I know that Sentosa has such a bueautiful tree, with a transparent pavillion floating in a pond. It's really a great place for wedding photos. We witness at least 2 couples(: But it's also a great place for ant bites and other crawlies . Don't ever underestimate our Yizi power.

At night, we went to Songs of the Sea, an addition bonus compare to last year's camp.

And we stayed over at the Underwater World. Sleeping with fishes flying over your head. I had great pictures in my handphone. My brother took my cable and never return!!(arhhx! shall post my lovely fishes another day)

Right after Ponyo show, I went to live in the ocean. I'm falling more and more in love with marine lives!

2nd Day morning: Dolphine Lagoon - and I touch Han with YiZi.

We stayed under this 5 Dollar Tree for hours.

My favourite video group!

Back-to-school syndrome

The eco-camp is finally over. I'm super tired- Once i reach home, I slept all the way till dinner time. After dinner, I slept all the way till 11.p.m. I shall not blog about the camp now, I need more rest!):

I'm feeling the Back-to-School Syndrome all over me. The new term is just a few hours away from now. siannn~~~ Like most of them ( I assume)- I'm in a real heavy debt of school works.

Ponyo

I went for GV meeting in the morning, it's about tomorrow's eco-camp. Hais, I don't want to go, I don't want to go. It's not that I was holding grudges against this camp, it's that I just don't like all kinds of camps.

I went for a movie and dinner with Hazel & Dom at AMK Hub after that. We watched Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea.




The characters are just so cute, I cant believe they actually hand-drawn over 170,000 separate images. I don't know why I'm so addicted to those fantasy-like movies. It's just such a fantasy to befriend a mermaid, although this might never happen. I want to live in a lighthouse by a cliff also. I have always like the sea and ocean, people who can sail through the storm. (Navy men, pirates, all of them!) Maybe is because of their smart uniform, maybe is because of the beauty of the story they told (of the amazing dolphines, orca-killer whales!) or the kind of courage they have. ArHH.. I'm wondering to another world(:



I love all the movies from this Ghibli studio, (and their sound track) especially the Totoro (when I was a small child) and the Spirited Away (now). I am just going to collect all the movies produced by them. Although Ponyo is still no fight for Spirited Away, but it is much better than Hawl's Moving Castle.

Then Dom treated us to a dinner and they sent me home. Hais, sian.. I want to watch more movies! Bedtime stories, Ip Man, (now..) Monster Inc 2, Caroline(from the director of nightmare before christmas) blah blah blah... (dont know when coming out).







No matter how many don't wants and don't wantsI want to shout, I still have to go. I have made my words.


Bye Bye people, 2 days away in camp at sentosa. Pray for a change of attitude in me.

I'm going to shower and pack my bag soon. Night. There goes my holiday.
