Whatever will be, will be. Anything that concerns my heart, I'm going to just leave it be. If things are meant to be mine, they will be, in due time. I'm going to put everything in God's hands.

Ahh today was J1 end of year ceremony. Brother Paul is leaving. :( He's a great principal, FSV showed that best in the incredible videos they made. He's almost always among the students, interacting with them.. or dancing with the teachers. He treated us as friends and showed us respect. In return, we do the same. Little wonders that go a long way (:
Our lives are made In these small hours These little wonders, These twists & turns of fate Time falls away, But these small hours, These small hours still remain
...
He is sweet! :] In a friend manner la. Why am I mentioning this? Because yay, I have found another non asshole-y guy. whoopdedoo.
Some day today was. You could feel the tension in the LTs, it made me worried even when I was initially calm. It's like 'O' Levels results all over again! When the GP paper first returned to us yesterday, I was still like in a high-ish mood. But halfway through today I was kinda like zoned out, esp during econs. Haha. Like don't know whether to be happy or not, after all the excitement/non-excitement going on around me. Lots of distraught faces, I honestly don't know what to say to them, especially when they're sitting next to me. Like what? Tell them it's okay? It's not. I know it wasn't, and if I ask if they're okay it's obvious they're not. So I'll just stone and give a somewhat silent moral support.
I basically passed everything. :) So proud of myself.
So anyway, here were my raw results, not counting mid-years: GP: B Maths: B Econs: D Lit: D Chem: D Chinese: D
HAHA. Actually when you look at it they weren't very good results. So many Ds. But when I looked at other people, at least the ones in my class, I didn't have the right to complain, though I think I might have unconsciously. Not intentional though. I'm really glad this time not only because i can promote, but also because I've had personal achievements.
Proving Ms Z wrong by scoring above 30 out of 50 for the 'killer' essay question. She said initially, "How DARE anyone do this question!?" And I got B overall man.
Jumping five grades for maths, from 26 in mid-years to 67.5/100. It is not impossible, if I decide to take it seriously. Plus it's a high B, so even when that 26/100 pulls it down by 8 marks, I get to keep my B!
Passing chem even though I studied last minute. Yeah I know it's H1, but I really thought I'd screw it up. Since I'm given the chance, i'll properly study chem this time :]
Didn't give up.
HAHA, Chem is damn funny okay. I was lucky in my MCQ somewhat, with 21/30. Section B screwed up, 6/20, because I didn't study enthalpy change hahaha. In the class, there was only one B, one C, about two Ds, and everything else below. So basically means I'm the third or fourth highest. Haha! But then I know our class didn't really bother about chem. It was the last exam, it's H1, it's CHEM, and we only had one day. So when everyone got back generally they were quite adamant.
Video Jack introduced. Haha! It IS possible to do something fun in Singapore.
Omgoose, PW. PWPWPWPW. what the hell is I&R about?? I have to rush my OP part by tonight, gonna have a rehearsal tomorrow at David's house! Yay, David's house! We've gone there twice already, once long time ago, another yesterday. He has a huge pond with huge fishes, 11 (or 12) terrapins, a tiny CRAB! and a cupboard full of food. It was fun/slack-ish yesterday. We were painting and building the model for our O.P. And we played many many games of Bridge! Omg I'm sadly addicted to that card game.
epicute.com random pic, hahaha. it is a cake.
Promo results out next week. Ee. So far there were news though. Both good and bad. I have kinda like, no comment. Just hoping for the best.
Free-fencing at FM on Thursday! Anyway, this time there was me, Monisha, Nicole, Annabel and Wei Ping. Gerard turned up as promised, to help to guide us. It was more fruitful, because he really sat down with me to tell me specifically my mistakes, and what to correct. We left FM at like, what... 10.30pm? Reached home at 12 plus. Tired man.
NOW my arms are starting to ache from that free-fencing. And I'm beginning to see the multiple bruises from being poked. 6 bruises, 2 cuts. still counting. o_o
I love the lyrics of the song New Perspective by Panic! At The Disco! Here are some lines:
There's a haze above my TV That changes everything I see And maybe if I continue watching I'll lose the traits that worry me
Taking everything for granted but we still respect the time We move along with some new passion knowing everything is fine And I would wait and watch the hours fall in a hundred separate lines But I regain repose and wonder how I ended up inside
So, I've been telling Debby. I shalt take attraction with a pinch of salt. It is fatal.
OH, and I realized my hp could organize my inbox according to contacts! The top few people I receive messages from are... Debby: 2223 messages Leong Yew: 1405 smses Shi Ting: 555 smses Ruo Nan: 456 smses etc. HAHA. Yes, I entertain myself with these things. When I'm supposed to be doing PW.
What are the chances of finding a guy who knows you so well, yet still likes you just because it's you? How can anyone feel sad knowing they have someone like that in their lives?
Search me. But I know that letting go definitely lets you see things in a new perspective. Haha this so reminds me of that song by Panic! At the Disco.
Can we fast-forward to go down on me? Stop there and let me correct it I wanna live a life from a new perspective
I does not want to do PW. I does not want to study for Chinese 'A' Levels. But for all the above, 'tis not possible. Boo.
Rollerblading nearly took my life! Ice-skating is so much easier! Maybe because I started ice-skating earlier and I've not rollerbladed in 8 years... But w.e man, hahaha. It's a traumatic experience, sort of. But it's not quite as bad as cramps. Yeah random, I had them today and had to leave earlier from PW meeting. Sorry guys! D:
Yep, went with Jack, Leong Yew, Debby and Shi Ting to east coast park. It was $15 for three hours.
Some weirdo took a pic of me and Debby while we were blading. I didn't even notice, was too concerned with my life. HAHA. I haven't seen the gang for so long. Miss them. Ruo Nan smsed me at night saying she returned from HK. A bit too late right, hahah. Bryant had camp D: He has ass abrasion. Why am I announcing this? Am I even allowed to? Lol.
I don't have blisters! Miracle. Thanks to ST's socks, I think.
Today, I went for PW meeting. But I had cramps halfway, as mentioned before. Crawled home in torture, took pills the moment i reached home. Slept for about an hour. Woke up feeling much much better. Pain gone! Then I went to accompany my mom on her RSVP thing at some Meritus Mandarin hotel. It's supposed to be some company thingy, they invite a number of companies over for this thingy. It starts at 2pm, we came at 4pm. HAHA EPIC.
We went there and just took the food and stood in a corner being loners. Hahahaha. There wasn't much to do anyway, for me that is. It's just the food that inspired me to come. We were supposed to go to at least 6 out of 8 booths to talk with different hotel owners, but we didn't. Lazy. So we couldn't qualify for some lucky draw thing. My mom was soaking in the joy of realizing many people were older than her, while I shockingly realized nobody was younger than me. Not really shocking actually. So I pretended to be some dignified successor to my mom but obviously didn't work, I think I took too much food.
At least we get goody bags.
Ugly truth: guys don't always mean what they say. nice to hear, not always nice to believe. :]
I like this song that's playing at the moment [Future Love by Varsity], it's positive!
You're so far away Maybe you're right next door Got me picturing your face again Something worth waiting for I put all the others behind me They don't live up I know what I want What I need, to the T
Baby if they ask me, I would say I don't even know your name And when they ask me, 'Does it change? ' No it don't change a thing Cause there's something about the way you love me There's just something about the way you know me And I can't explain enough Just something about our future love
I shall make a list of all the injuries I am suffering right now.
Sore right hip - smashed into the chair while leaping/running around the house. i was too happy that promos are over, and was on my way to the kitchen to get chocolate.
Hurt left hip which doesn't hurt anymore - hit a corner shelf thing while strolling along. I literally bounced away and the cashier looked at me strangely.
A whole sore arm - free-fencing on thursday. (got thrashed once, damn.)
Sore legs which recovered yesterday - free-fencing.
A bruise some distance below my neck - got poked while fencing.
A bruise on the side of my knee - poked.
Wewt. I'm positive there are more tiny bruises though, i was poked 15x3 times.
And tomorrow, I predict I will have blisters from rollerblading. But I shall be positive that I shall not fall down so I shall not have any scratches.
omg so nice! It is so perfect for Halloween, I'm willing and able to pay $14 for this, hahaha. This is econs, I tell you.
Oh she, she so international The way, the way she get it on the floor I'm tryin', I'm tryin' to holler at you I want to get to know you better
Parlez vous francais? Konichiwa Come and move in my way Hey, little chica from Guadeloupe That thing you got behind you is amazing
Now I don't speak Spanish, Japanese or French But the way that body's talkin' definitely makes sense It's her, her body, her body, her body language It's her, her body, her body, her body language
OMG I can't believe I can't get this song out of my head! When I first heard it I thought it was just another lame sexual-ish song. But the lyrics are kinda original and they even have a french line! Catchy tune too, it stuck to me after I accidentally heard it a few more times on radio. Wheeeeee. ANd I saw the video and was relieved it was nothing like the one in Leavin'.
Anyway Promos are OVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. Sho, promos were fine until today, the chemistry paper nearly killed me. Maybe it's because it's H1 and the second last paper so I was lazy to study. Ah well, over already. Now time to slack. Lots and lots of time to slack.
During promos itself, I got hooked on to the TV. I self-introduced myself to The Nanny, Married with Children, According to Jim, and a couple more I can't remember. HAHA powerpuff girls z too. And I watched two classic disney movies, Mulan and Aladdin! They were awesome (duh!) and Aladdin's still amazingly hot. And he's a cartoon character! Disney is awesome isn't it.
I liked how everything falls together (very accidentally) in place, with Mulan, Mushu and the cricket's clumsy ways. And I loved the Genie in Aladdin, not to mention the 'A Whole New World' scene. Here's a clip of genie, when he first met Aladdin:
The last part when he said "in case of emergencies, the exits are here, they're here they're here they're here..." i totally cracked up. He is so fast and random.
I felt so happy after watching each of them. It's a good break from studying man.
I told my brother a few days ago, that I tried my best to try my best. Doesn't it make sense? Like you bring your whole bunch of notes while going out for dinner. The fact that you're bringing it shows your attempt. But you don't end up reading anything at all, so basically you did not try your best. But you tried to try your best. Get it? :D
Here's why Shi Ting is evil: Me: MY LIGHT'S GONNA EXPLODE! IT'S FLICKERING! Shi Ting: YAY AWESOME
ROME – Scientists have reproduced the Shroud of Turin _ revered as the cloth that covered Jesus in the tomb _ and say the experiment proves the relic was man-made, a group of Italian debunkers claimed Monday.
The shroud bears the figure of a crucified man, complete with blood seeping out of nailed hands and feet, and believers say Christ's image was recorded on the linen fibers at the time of his resurrection.
Scientists have reproduced the shroud using materials and methods that were available in the 14th century... this is further evidence the shroud is a medieval forgery.
screw you scientists.
... experts couldn't explain how the faint brown discoloration was produced, imprinting on the cloth a negative image centuries before the invention of photography.
Many still believe that the shroud "has unexplainable characteristics that cannot be reproduced by human means," lead scientist Luigi Garlaschelli said.
told ya.
The Catholic Church makes no claims about the relic's authenticity, but says it is a powerful symbol of Christ's suffering.
-nods-
Another study, by the Hebrew University, concluded that pollen and plant images on the shroud showed it originated in the area around Jerusalem sometime before the eighth century... "They won't give up," he said. "Those who believe in it will continue to believe."
Yeap. So stop all those researching and re-producing the cloth to prove that it's fake! The world's not all about science and logical, rational things.
Talking about the face of jesus, here's one photo I saw on flickr.
Maybe it's a coincidence, maybe He is always among us. You never really know.
:)
Lit P1 exam over! I still want to quote a couple of parts from the book though:
"You teach me how cruel you've been--cruel and false. Why did you despise me? Why did you betray your own heart, Cathy? ... You loved me--then what right had you to leave me? What right--answer me--for the poor fancy you felt for Linton? Because misery, and degradation, and death, and nothing that God or Satan could inflict would have parted us, you, of your own will, did it. I have not broken your heart--you have broken it--and in breaking it, you have broken mine."
- Heathcliff
"If all else perished and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the Universe would turn to a mighty stranger. I should not seem a part of it. My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woords. Time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees--my love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath--a source of little visible delight, but necessary. Nelly, I am Heathcliff--he's always, always in my mind--not as a pleasure, but as my own being."
- Catherine
Stephanie Meyer, Wuthering Heights is not not a love story, thanks very much.
As much as it is a hate story, it is a love story. Period.
And to those people who published the Twilight inspired cover for WH, my goose.
Please do not associate WH with vampires, they are different things altogether.
Even if you want to, do it properly and not make it seem like a knockoff from Twilight!
More people will be reading Wuthering Heights, but for the wrong reason! Because they think Edward is hot.
It irks me how people see WH and they go, "Oh! That's the book from Twilight!"
...
What IS with the font!? AND the stamp that says: "Bella and Edward's favourite book."
Weird creep guy who added me on Facebook, is 'married', and has been adding only young indonesian girls as his friends. And he posted on my wall only. Great. And I replied because it's only polite to do so. Ugh I hope he's not some perv. If my dad knew I've been accepting random weirdos he'd slaughter me.
Omgoose, promos are here!!! However, it is 8 days to freeeeeeedom~
I hate to be cynical, but I have fears about this thing, hopefully they are empty fears. Would it be better to tell them to him, or to give him a chance to make it work? Ugh this is frustrating, and it's not even about me.
Omg.
Then again must praise his courage and decisiveness.
