The ICA building was crowded, even early in the morning. While I was waiting for my turn at the photo booth, I contemplated whether or no to tie my hair. I didn't want to always have the 'same look' like I have in school. But I decided to be 'more like a student' and tied up my hair. The camera snapped my photo so fast I had no time to prepare a decent smile. In the end, the photo showed a girl with a sarcastic, unwilling smile. As soon as I got it, the thought that enters my head was: "Oh hey... I have no pimples... and the one on my forehead is barely visible."
They registered me as Christian, not Catholic. Not that it matters anyway.
It rained. When I left the building, it was raining hard, and the wind was chilly. Yay? My wish came true a little too late. But later, I received a message from Leong Yew saying it rained the moment he read my blog. He couldn't go kayaking. Coincidence? Nah.. I prefer to think it as psychic. Haha, something good came out of the late wish xD
It was past 11 when I was done. I went straight to my electone lessons. I navigated my way from Lavendar station to Clementi station. I used the stars. Not really, taking into account that I was underground, it was morning, and that you can't see stars from Singapore. I had to use the map at the station.
Whoosh, I got to Clementi safely. Magic. Wow.
I'm in better spirits today. I suppose today was a normal day on the better side. Yesterday was on the worse side.
I must swim this weekend. And play badminton. And tennis. And go to the gym. And do whatever that is excercise.
There's a chance I might go to the movies with my family. My dad got like, 12 free movie tickets? o.O

No link -_- I need a life.
There was a time when I was young, a little girl. I sat by the window and thought.
When I grow up, I will have a perfect life. I will be a model student, one who is very clever and will score good grades. I will make my parents proud and outshine my brothers. I will be pretty and popular and liked by everyone. I will have many admirers. But only one boy will love me and I will like him too. I will grow up successfully, get a high-ranking job, marry, and live happily ever after until an old age.
Someone please, give me the definition of 'naive'. I want to compare it with my dream and see the similarity. Now that my eyes are open really wide, I will tell you how much my dreams have come true.
No. That time is over. It's happened before but it didn't last. I don't want that now. I don't want that now either. These things don't happen to everyone. Not going to come true, not possible, wonder if it's going to be a happy marriage, and that's a fairytale.
Oh, the cruelty of this world... it has destroyed the innocent dreams of a young girl.
