kbox today was oodles of fun!!! with my fellow kendokas, michelle, sarah, wenhao, mun wei and suyu, we certainly rocked the house down! haha~ i think people thought we were crazy or something. haha~

kudos to wenhao for being the only guy who came! wahaha~ we depended on wenhao to do the manly man parts, for example phantom in phantom of opera! and yesh, we have our own gerard butler! haha~ cools!

and we sang pretty fly (for a white guy), i dont wanna miss a thing and its my life! well more like screamed actually. shouting into the mics and purposely blasting the music wahaha~ mun wei was traumatised when we did the pretty fly. give it to me baby, uh huh uh huh!

and then the usuals, dreaming of you, peng you, amazed etc. mun wei and suyu did one night in beijing, causing michelle and sarah to declare a toilet break and run out of the room. haha~ but i felt it wasn't that bad a rendition. sarah told me that it was because casper and siwei werent there. hmmmm....

this time around, there were more english songs, and so my voice sounds super sexy now wahaha~ the mtvs were still pretty hilarious and horrible. the stalker in phantom was the funniest. haha~

i had a really great time. thanks guys for coming!!! and to michelle for suggesting it! :) really really enjoyed myself and well forget the stuff that's happening in my life. haha~ cools! we must do it agains! haha~ with more people! ahah~ ^_^

@@@

ragging loads nowadays, gonna rag even more. we need help people!!! do come down and help whenever you're free!!!! rag is in *gasp* 14 days!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! 2 weeks!!!!

and ym is going to go off now. matric on mon to thurs!!! drop by kendo booth yeah!




i fell at the steps on my way to lt11 2 days ago. i thought it wasn't something major then. although it hurt damn bad and i walked with a limp, i thought it'd go away.

i thought wrong. it still freaking hurts and it's swollen. the area's black too. i can't sit cross-legged, and i cant rest on that side of the erm leg. sole. whatever.

one would think no kendo would mean no injuries. but alas, ym has done it again. darn that klutziness.

---

kendo dinner at fish n co last night was a funny affair. funny cos jokers like wenhao, nic and shunji were there. first, all 3 of them shared a plate(pan) of fish and chips. and they had to have some sort of ceremony before cutting the fish (laughing ceremony, if you're wondering). and then, viola!, shunji magicked bbq chicken wings from cold storage and unceremoniously poured the chunk into the pan. all 3 then proceeded to eat the wings and clear away all evidence by dumping the bones into the paper bag. -_-"

sarah and i had a huge pan of seafood basket (for two). it was my first time at fish n co, and considering that this is singapore, the food was actually alright. heh!

and no dinner would be complete if jeremy doesn't do something hilarious, stupid and embarrassing. hah! poor sarah. first, he learnt the mambo moves of the chorus from a song (something like together forever and never to part) from me at an arcade, and then he kept doing it over and over, from arcade to escalator to the mrt. poor sarah. haha~ lucky i wasn't present all the time. heh~ and then, jeremy made this comment. well, me, michelle and sarah were waiting for the guys or something, so we were looking down at the people. but when jeremy saw us, he was like "can't wait to cook for your husbands ah?" (or sth like that). and me and sarah went "no, its cant wait for our husbands to cook for us". and sarah went on to say how she's train her husband to cook for her, punctuating it with a 'whip' sound. and then jeremy had to tell me, "so next time if you meet a guy who enjoys getting whipped, introduce him to sarah". Oh My Goodness. that sounded so wrong, and it didn't help that we were in plaza sing. public area. people. ahh! poor sarah. the funniest thing is, jeremy had no idea what was so bad about what he said. naturally, me and michelle were tortured by that phrase.

ah wells, all-in-all, it was nice. heh~

earlier (than the kendo dinner), i met lay ping at jp. changed and yet hasnt changed much. ah! ate at banquet, chicken rice! yums! hehe~ walked around, bought a reebok sports bra. and then, cos lp's cousin suddenly cancelled her tuition, lp found herself very free. and so we made the impromptu decision to go to queensway.

at queensway, we hunted around for fbts. finally have my first (and second) pair of fbts!!! yes i know, i'm like, so deprived or something. wahaha~ and i bought another sports bra, this time a nike one. i love nike sports bras cos they're padded and they are dri-fit and so comfy!!!! hehe~ dont love the price though. good thing there was a discount. :)

ah! and so, ym is broke. heh~

---

cabaret on sunday! i cant wait!!!! money makes the world go around, the world go around, the world go around....




met the releka peeps for dinner at raffles place coffee club last night. it was fun! so nice to see them all again after arts camp. hehe~ so many of them turned up too! yay! although i must say, the baked rice at coffee club isnt nice. the rice tasted wierd. didnt really had much appetite after that. the dessert was yummylicious though! the best is still my ice mocha vanilla. :) i love mocha. wahaha.

and so, ym is going to be very very very busy over the next few days. whee~




in every organization, there is politics. why can't people just get along and work together happily? why the bitching and sour faces?

smile, the world is looking at you. who cares what's really going on inside anyway.

tired. so tired. tears, anger, frustration, disappointment. it all culminates into one night. thanks to those who were there to comfort me.

losing my faith, i am losing my faith. where to go from here?




i am so tried of my life. the life i lead at home. whoever said home is a happy safe haven should go shoot himself in the foot. the only time i'm ever happy here is when i am alone in the house. really. i cant wait for my stayover tmr where i will be free of overbearing and unfair parents. call me immatured if you want, but i really am at the end of my patience. it's running so thin, i will snap at any moment. i am this close to bitting the head off the next person who comes and give me attitude.

what the hell is wrong with my parents, someone please tell me. do i have a "come and bite my head off" sign on my forehead? what, did i like do something horrific in my past life? to suffer so much in this life? if you dont know me, dont you dare judge me by what i am typing in here, and by don't know, i mean don't know the full extent of the shit i went through since nursery until now. i have every right to complain and if you do not agree, get lost. and if you are one of those unwelcomed prying eyes, get lost too. i'm sick and tired of having to deal with you.

sorry, maybe i am a little short of fuse these few days. well, beg my pardon, because i am so bloody stressed with rag and matric fair, and what some idiot said today is not helping matters. im sorry im not like being more proactive in helping wenhui out with soft tech planning, im sorry i SUCK at doing such planning that those ideas i did contribute are not used in the endd (i SUCK, what can i say) and i'm sorry i come across as some selfish bitch who dumps stuff on her. the truth of the matter is, i dont even know 95% of the stuff she has planned with the two artists, cos she didnt tell me. i only know what she asks me to do for that particular day. she knows that i am busy planning for matric fair as well as involved in cmad, and so i honestly dont have so much time on my hands to really help plan soft tech as well, unless i want to end up killing myself by going entirely without sleep. say what you want, you dont know fucking shit of what i have to do, so just shut up and leave me the hell alone. stop ruining my reputation and announcing to the world that you think i am being lazy because you have NO right to. my kendo captain can be understanding, why the hell cant you. just fuck off!

and really, i should start buying invinsible ear plugs to shut my mum and dad out once and for all. irritating buggers are really getting on my nerves. what bloody bull about blasting music and tv when they are the ones blasting their mouths in the middle of the night. whatever.

and my neighbours. honestly. before you complain, take a look at yourself. blasting music early in the morning and attempting to sing opera damn loudly (when obviously, you cant sing for shit) is a huge no no. and what's so wrong with people that they cant renovate their houses during the school holidays, but have to do it during school time/exam time? go kill yourselves, please.

i am a ticking time bomb. go figure.




took part in the east-west tourney on sunday. my first time taking part in it, and well, it turned out to be a rather fun tournament! you get to meet new friends and fight with opponents of roughly your own grade, which is a refreshing change from the other tournaments in the sense that in the others, you usually end up fighting someone so much better. and you're under more stress as you're representing your school. here, there's no stress, not much anyway. the stress only comes in the form of wanting yourself and your team to do well. but it was still rather fun!!!

my team had a small japanese kid (he is so cute!!!!), myself, weiqi, jane and inoue sensei. i played second position, which means the pressure is on me, the kid and weiqi to perform well. if we do, the last two just have to defend, if we dont, the last two have to fight really hard and win. either that, or we simply have lost. and so, the tournament began!

i guess im lucky in the sense that my first opponent was wenhao. since i knew he liked dou cuts, i sorta tried to prevent him from getting proper ones on me. we drew in the end. the second one, im really lucky cos i get to walkover. and so my team won the round-robin and proceeded to the next stage. the next one was my best match, i feel. i really went all-out for that, i dont really know what happened to me but i was rather aggressive i guess. and i scored a men point, which according to some was rather nicely done. i dont know, it happened so fast all i remembered was flying shinais and a struggle to defend and attack. oh wells. all my opponents were guys.

the next stage was the semi-final stage, again, against a guy. and let's say that this guy is just damn violent. and also this guy became the arch-nemesis of myself and nicholas. heh! and i lost to this guy. and our team lost to this team. and so we got third. but wenaho's team beat his team, and wenhao beat him so yay!!! haha~

im really happy we got third, its like, my first kendo medal!!! woohoo! hehe~ super happy about it, and at the end of the day, i must be really lucky to be in such a superb team! with strong kendokas like weiqi and inoue sensei, and a excellent friend in jane who helps to calm my nerves, i feel lucky that my first experience in east-west is a good one. :) and also the fact that i didnt have to fight any kids, :). heeee~

that said, i also felt sad after my last match cos i felt that i could have done better. perhaps if i were more aggressive, i could have drawn. and then perhaps jane wouldnt have felt so stressed and perhaps we could have gone on to the finals. i was really sad when jane told me her feelings about her match and kept saying about how she could have played more defensively so that we could have moved on. being the other person who lost during that match, and being the second player, i couldnt help thinking that if i had made that match my best match, we could have done better. but i guess nothing could be changed now. after everything, i am still happy we did alright. :) and my first kendo and sports medal too! :) :)

boo boo, my cough became worse after that though. sigh. coughed non-stop, sometimes to the point that i couldnt breathe. mum banned me from training today, sigh. :*( oh wells, cough, please do get better soon.

@@@
applying for sep agains, wish me luck!!!!




things that my freshies do not believe about me:

1) that i dont club (i seriously truly honestly dont. really. the first club i ever went to was last year's arts camp, the second was this year's arts camp. i lead a sad life. heh)

2) that i am not attached (why oh why must i be attached? why why why?????). even if they were forced to accept that im not attached, they believe that i will get attached soon. WHY!!!!!! they've even started scandals, and poor me is their latest victim. sob sob.

3)that i am only in year 2. what, do i look old or something??? when i was a freshie, fellow freshies and seniors alike thought i was in year 2 or 3. now, my own freshies think im in year 3 or 4!!! *faints* wonder what they will say next year.

4) i wonder what they'll say if i said im actually a really quiet girl? hmmmm....

@@@

@@@

east-west tourney this sunday. i am so dead. why? cos i havent trained in 3 weeks, thanks to other commitments. when i wanted to train on monday and today, i fall sick. -_-" am i cursed or something? hmmm.... wish me luck for the coming tournament!!! hope i dont throw nuskk face. sigh.

the bed is calling out to me. night folks.




im back from arts camp!!! WHOO!!! all black and tired! yeah man! haha~ arts camp equals to loads of fun! haha~

anywayz, my og is RELEKA!!! yeah! and we're from RAMICA house! whoo!!! ok still on arts camp high. anywayz, my og is really really enthu!!! and well-bonded! i love them all!! heh~ and wells, being a councilor means that i dont get to play the games and all, but it was still fun ra-raing them and all. and well, basically fulfilling the role of a games ic. seeing them using my cheers, and then slowly, leading them themselves, gives me a sense of satisfaction. so proud of them all! heh~

was station ic for fright night as well as beach games. fright night was alright, was at the arts club room. i kena kicked by some idiot twice, and the same idiot nearly pulled me off my chair as well. had to try my hardest to control my temper and not actually yell at the person and just punch him in the face. the thing about being ghosts is that one has to be prepared that such things may happen. so yah. anywayz, i complained to my station ic and i think she told the o-comm members. last i heard, they'd already caught the guy and are dealing with him.

that said, fright night was also rather fun in that all the screams we get from being ghosts. heh~ say we're mean, but that's our job. getting people to scream. heh~ the funniest had to be when this guy actually screamed right in front of my face upon seeing me. haha~

beach games, it was alright. rather chaotic. kena sunburn, haha~ ah wells, it was a nice hot day at sentosa so.... and i love the sea!!! :P ohhs, and we had secret pal there. was so funny, us councilors that were not enough playing tricks and freaking out the freshies and male councilors. haha~ really mean, we all. pretending to be another sp and talking to the freshies, and then running off suddenly so that they'll be talking to air and then becoming confused as to where the other person ran off to. the funniest was when i tricked my own freshie, and after i ran off, this two other councilors came by and asked him and his partner why the two of them were so quiet, and he was like, "2? i thought there were 3 of us?" and the councilors went," no, there's always been 2 of you!" and so, my freshie was seriously freaked out. aha~

and on thurs, there was the mini bash. went to mox, a gay club. kinda fun lah, but clubbing still isnt really my cup of tea. went to maxwell market for supper with my og after dancing for awhile. my goodness, the yu sheng there is heavenly!!! omg omg omg!!! nicholas recommended it, and we are hooked!!!! dad says we'll go there for dinner soon. WHOO!!!!

didn't sleep that night. marathon the whole night having og bonding. with people like gabriel (ahem - GAY-briel!!!) and zhi min around, and nicholas, laughed until stomachache lor. haha~ yeah, but it was so good to see my og being so enthu and taking the initiative to have og-bonding.

the rest, just normal games. haah~ but fun fun fun! yayys!!!! arts camp 06!!!

just for the people of RELEKA: i really really love u guys for being so spontaneous and taking the initiative to bond with one another. honestly, i've never had an og that bonded so well by the 2nd day! really admire you guys. and i want to thank you all so much for being so supportive of us councilors, and for being so sweet. the stuff you guys gave us on the last day nearly moved us all to tears. really. and i want to apologize for not being at my peak during the camp itself. i wasnt really mentally nor physically fit during the camp itself, just felt really drained, tired and low, but you guys were really great and your enthusiasm and warmth helped to lift me up at times and really,just enjoy myself. thanks a lot releka!!! and i sincerely hope that you guys really enjoyed yourself too!!!! see you all at og outings and rag!!! WHOOO!!!!!!
