Yay! I still remember the login username and password!!!!!

anyway, welcome to 2010. It's already March (turning April soon) so i guess i should again try to keep this blog at least partially alive!

Hmmm though it's still March and it's probably a little bit too soon to say but my freshman year is ending!!!! it's so so fast i can't believe it! Ha and Trang are applying to transfer so i really really hope you guys will come here soon. Phuong's brother's gonna study in sg next year too! and i will be back in vietnam in summer and probably visit sg for a week or so. Yay!

good afternoon to all the cats in the world and friends! okay i am posting here again after years. the blog address is not even in my history anymore! :( that shows how long i've not visited this place and honestly sometimes i dont even remember that this blog actually exists! so yeah, i just wanna say that i havent seen ha for a day, havent seen trang for about a month and havent seen quynh for about 4 months! :'( and i wont get to see ha till next week, i wont get to see trang till next month (at least) and i wont get to see quynh till next year! i miss you all and oldham time and nush time much! next year we should really plan for a proper trip together and do all the crazy things that we used to do together!!! maybe i shall start planning from now? how does sapa sound?

hicks i just realised that the last picture that we took together was like during asean dance! :(

2009-09-11T04:33:00.003+08:00

Hiiii friends!!!!!!

I don't know if anyone would come to visit this blog again after so many dead dead months, but it's alright, i'm here to revive it, just to send an update or two once in a while.

So we're all in college now. Gosh! Isnt it fast? We set up this blog when we just went to JC or even earlier i can't remember and now here we are, all in college: ha and phuong - NTU, trang - NUS, me - CC. Time does fly, doesn't it?

So school has started for us all. Another new chapter. Another new place. New challenges. New faces. New friends. New everything... It can get really tiring and even depressing sometimes, but i know we all will find our new comfort eventually.

Anyway... I miss you guys!!!!!! It feels so weird here without having you guys around all the time, or at least having you guys within the reachable distance. Remember how we first met like 5 years ago??? Ha and I were roommates! We didn't hang out with Phuong. And we didn't even know who Trang is. Remember when we moved to OH? Phuong came over and we all cried together. Then we met Trang for the first time!!!! Remember the 2 years we spent there with our seniors and them all? Thanksgiving dinners, nights screaming and shouting until we got blacklisted, all the crazy stuffs we did together! Remember 2 years in NUS High? The times we gathered in vietnam?.......

I know turning back time is impossible. I just want to let you know that I love you and I really really miss you. I hope we will not grow apart as much as people usually do when distance does play its part well. All the best for your endeavours, be it academically or socially. I will look forward to meeting you all soon <3333333333333

hello :) if you are reading this, congratulations. as a reward for your great perseverance, you have been rewarded with an entry. so if you think this blog is dead, think again.

hah ok sorry. well i was talking to ha the other day and somehow or another we came across the topic of this blog and i just realised that i haven't updated OR checked it for eonsss. so i finally DID check it today and found that quynh updated like last year and i didn't even know!!! roar. so yes i'm just gonna write something haha

so if you think about it, after the end of last year so many things changed! quynh and phuong moved to NUS and ha and i moved into my friend's house, and now after CNY i'm not even sure what's happening, and who's staying where and for how long etc. ok and more importantly, none of us are really sure as to which uni we're going to, or scratch that, which COUNTRY we're going to for uni. basically we're all gonna be split up everywhere. which is really, really, really , really, really sad, if you really think about it. and i'm just so thankful for having to know you guys. hahah.

soooo i dunno how often we're gonna be able to see each other and hang out and do all the retarded things we used to do, esp once june/july starts. so i mean maybe this blog can be more than just a shared blog, it's more like a place where we all keep in contact so even after we really leave sec sch/jc life behind we sort of know what's happening in each others lives??? righttttt??

haha okiez i dunno. i mean we have fb and msn and everything la but its not the same. hmm. ok and at this point i'd insert some photo here of the four of us but i'm at work so i'm updating using the office laptop! haha! oh and btw my laptop has officially deceased. let's all take a minute to mourn for the wretched little machine. i suppose it can't be easy being MY laptop. it never gets turned off, for one.

right this is probably long enoguh. update update update eveyrone!!! phuong and quynh are coming back tonight i think. haha. omg so funny la i still can't believe they're staying overnight at the airport. ok GOOD LUCK FOR As GUYS I KNOW YOU WILL DO GREAT

xoxo, gossip girl
aha ok kidding. xoxoxoxo trang

Hello friends!!!!

The blog was so so so dead that I decided that it's time to give it a life.

Let's see, the last update was like... June!!! It's like 5 months ago, almost half a year!!! Every one of us was just so busy with our own stuffs that we barely had time for this blog. Like Phuong and i have our own blog, and Trang too, and Ha also though she doesn't really write. This blog is like deserted now. But since the year is ending, I'm not gonna let it die like that

A bit update on me and the rest of us

June: Phuong and i went home for holiday for like 2 weeks and came back to train for our competition. It was on June 28th

July: Nothing much but our attempts to study for prelims. It was a sad month towards the end with a lot of things happened (to me).

August: PRELIMS!!! Gosh it was tiring and exhausting and HARD!!! ASEAN dance was on August 2nd

September: Sep holiday!!! Phuong went back for holiday while the rest enjoyed ourselves. Phuong's birthday was on September 28th

October: That's my birthday month :D:D:D:D. Baccalaureate was on October 9th. And there came a series of mugging days or trying-to-mug days. Year end dinner was on October 18th with a lot of fun and crazy moments

November: A LEVEL!!!! I'm so glad it's over though I still got other battles to continue fighting on. Our own farewell dinner was on November 21st and now all of us are busy either going out, packing, slacking or studying like crazy (that's me!)

places i wanna go!

I LOVE ACJC LIFEGUARDS!

the art of stoning

2008-04-05T23:45:00.003+08:00

stoning is an art. not everyone can stone. among many stoners, the professional ones are those who can choose nice places to stone at the right time.

i stoned at the bus stop opposite my hostel for a while to wait for 198 with quynh and peng peng today. i never realised that the scenery looked so nice from there, although i stopped at that bus stop almost everyday when i went back from school. everything was just so green and peaceful. okay maybe because i usually come back late, so everything is like black instead of green. anyway i think i should stone there more often.

another nice place to stone is acjc bleachers because from there you can see the field and the sports complex. so are the bleachers at the pool deck as you can see the swimming pool from there. i've fallen in love with that swimming pool since dont-know-when. maybe its because i go swimming too often. this week i swim like 6 times, both for lifeguards training and for swim meet! lifeguards trainings are getting crazier these days, but i just love going for trainings!

-phuOng

p.s.1. sorry for this random post. in fact, all my posts are random!

p.s.2. i'd like to thank quynh and pengpeng for listening to my "story". i think i would have gone crazy if i had not told you guys.

p.s.3. peng peng and hao hao must love each other okay? dont fight!

p.s.4. my lifeguards friends and i played the shoot-shag-marry game today and it was super fun!

p.s.5. im going off! bye! (:

10 randoms things!

2008-03-19T23:29:00.004+08:00

I have not posted anything here for super long! Hmph, I actually wanted to write something last week, but I could not log in to blogger. So here am I, trying recall 10 random things that I've done last week and this week to make up a post!

1. I adopted a new baby and my new baby is super cute!

2. I watched sunrise in school (at the bleachers) on 11 March.

3. It rained throughout the lifeguards camp, but we did not swim as much as expected.

4. I watched three movies at the cinemas and one series online, and all were nice!

5. I emo-ed a lot last week, and I even cried! I need to be stronger!

6. I checked the message log in my phone and found out that I sent 2468 messages this month!

7. I ate sooooooooo much for dinners on 15 and 16 March that my stomach wanted to burst!

8. I realised that walking in a dark park at night was seriously scary, especially when I forgot to bring "Mas Repellent".

9. I had cramps during training yesterday, and it was so badly hurt that I could not walk properly today.

10. I went fot arts night with my lifeguards friends [Haha Sylvia is crazy!]. I did not know that my classmates were going, so i pangseh-ed them. Sorry!

These are 10 random things that I've done. This week is a short week, because Friday is Good Friday! I am going for lunch with my classmates after school and for dinner with lifeguards after training tomorrow. LOVE AS BEFORE. And L FOR LIFEGUARDS. L FOR LOVE. Oh yeah, Funorama is coming really soon! And i am excited!

PS. I miss Ung, Sheridine and Don!

HELLO :) i haven't updated for like over a month!? lazyyy la. i've been really busy with school and stuff. so much work to do ):

so i have an actual CCA now. zomg! i'm becoming so involved in school this year it's amazing. i stay back for CCA, i do CAS projects (sort of like cip la) i stay in school 5 days a week most weeks and don't skip lessons and don't run out of school early. i even do PE!!! my entire life practically revolves around school. it's so strange but somehow i'm getting used to it, and it's not as bad as i thought i'd be la. ah but one thing never changes: i'm still perpetually behind on school work. diediedie.

we had founder's day today and award ceremony yesterday. of all the useless mondays and thursdays that we're forced to come to school for no reason i think yesterday and today ownedddd. haha and today was funny cos everyone was forced to sit outside on the astroturf while it RAINED and RAINED for once being in choir pays off! ah wells. sadly i have hourly reports again for tmr ): this hostel is INSANE i swear. i wished i could move outtttt. whines.

oooh and like quynh mentioned. we took sats last month or something i think, and we PHAILLL. must take again and actually attempt to study this time. SATs are damn boring though i swear. i wanted to die during the paper it was so long and tedious and every time i reached the english section i was just like, oh god. can't imagine sitting through another four hours of SATs again!!

i wanna watch a movieee! but i'm so broke its not funny. i've been living with like NO money at all since end of january. yah i also dunno how i manage but somehow i do. barely. ah but i REALLY wanna watch a movie. i've yet to catch PS I love you! the last show i watched was like juno omg it was really reallygood though like seriously one of my favorite shows of ALL time. everyone should go watch it!

i likeeeeeeeeeee :) :)

okok shall shut up now i'm gonna go watch greyssss :) BUAIZ

2008-02-25T21:40:00.004+08:00

Oh dear... The last time i sent an entry onto this blog is like... last year!!! Ya, i'm horrible, i know, that's why i'm updating y'all now of what has happened recently this year :)

Ya, just like Phuong, i'm a qualified Lifeguard now. Hurray!!!!!! For those who took the test: Good job!!! For those who didn't take the test: thank y'all for helping us and supporting us!!! And for those who are taking test: good luck, you guys would make it just like we did!!! Oh no, i'm getting high again... hahaha

J2 has been busy, like seriously. Ha and I were involved in Orientation 1 and 2... Oh ya oh ya, i almost forgot to say: Orientation was truly a blast!!!! Though it got us all burnt and worn out, but it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience that would surely bring up a spark in our eyes every time we look back.

And then there was the SAT that Trang and I took last month.. Though we're kinda prepared that we'd screw the test, for me, there was still quite a lot of stress upon taking the test. And ya, the result didn't turn out very well, but for someone who didn't study anything like us, bet we'd own it in May when we're more prepared :)
And then Chinese new year came, with a four-day holiday, and Ha's birthday fell exactly on the 1st day of Chinese new year. We went to Labrador Park to have a small party, and ya, happy birthday Ha, though it's already 17 days over, haha :)

And then Valentines came in peace, meaning, there was no scandal among the 4 of us, or at least that was all that I'd noticed :D

Now, term exam is like coming.... in 4 days' time, oh no!!!! Study hard, ok? I know we'd make it through, just like we did to all the major exams that we have had so far. This is already our last year, so press on girls!!!!

Ya, so this is like our A level year. Put in the best effort, girls, let's all complete our race with passion, tenacity and integrity, let's all run this race like we've never run before, let's run so that at the end of the race, you could just like fall down, like you're dying, knowing that you've put in the best you could and finished it...

.... Who knows, this might be the last year we stay together as one...

qualified lifeguards!

2008-02-23T21:40:00.002+08:00

I AM A QUALIFIED LIFEGUARD FROM TODAY ONWARDS! yes that means that i passed my BM (Bronze Medalion) test!

theory test was okay (i applied what i studied from the lifesaving manual and mostly my own COMMON SENSE to answer all eight questions in the paper given!). i was super nervous before the 3:15 test (for your information, 3:15 test is the test that requires the candidates to swim 50m, rescue the casualty and tow the casualty back to safety within the time limit of 3 mins and 15 seconds). i'd never met the timing before during practices. but amazingly, despite the muscle pain ever since mass pe on thursday, today my timing was 3 MINS!!! i dont know whether the swimming cap really helped or whether i was so scared of failing BM that i stripped, swam and towed that fast! the rest of the items after 3:15 were easy, because there were no timings taken.

what made me even happier is that all the nine of us who took the test today passed! victor actually didnt make it at first, but the super nice examiner gave him a second chance and with zhi yong's assistance, his timing was 3:09! good job victor! haha we all screamed like mad when the examiner said we were all qualified! i like that examiner! he was super lenient!

after the test, all of us (including those who didnt take the test as well) went to dover market for lunch. haha i dont know why we always go to dover market after all e tests that we've taken so far. its not like e best place to eat or whatsoever, but its just super nice to stay there with my lifeguards friends talking, camwhoring, and creating scandals! haha lifeguards is super scandalous now! there're so many couples! haha and king raymond aka haohao is really popular!

oh i realise that i can talk so much about lifeguards! i really love acjc lifeguards very much! haha i've been saying this for many many times, but i still wanna say it again!

hmm after cheryl, tiffany, perlin, and huihui pass their BM, we'll go out to celebrate again! and this time, the celebrate will be much more grand/grander because we'll get our certs! go acjc lifeguards!

-quynh phuOng (:

happee phuongg!

2008-02-15T22:47:00.006+08:00

im like super happy now, and i seriously have no idea why i am happy! sometimes i just cant understand myself. this week has been a busy and tiring one with a lot of things happening at the same time. i was like always tired and sleepy everyday. the only time when i was more active was during lifeguards training! when i joined lifeguards last year, i never imagined that there would be this day when i loved lifeguards so much!

hmm i was blog-hopping just now, and i visited blogs of my cca friends. hmm i noticed that they blogged a lot about lifeguards! reading their blogs made me realise how much they are proud of acjc lifeguards ad being a part of acjc lifeguards. so i just feel like blogging about lifeguards too, because i am, just like my cca friends, proud to be an acjc lifeguard!

although i hate myself being such a blackie becauce of swimming under the hot sun three times a week (especially during saturday trainings!), although im very worried for my skin allergy, although i never want to have arm muscles and huge thighs, i dont know why i just cannot not go for trainings. to be honest, there are times when im super lazy to swim, but i still go to the pool just to watch my lifeguards friends swim.

having trainings three times a week cannot be considered often. each training also lasts for only 2-3 hours. so in fact, we only spend about 10 hours with one another per week. hmm 10 hours? thats less then e time i spend with my classmates in a day! okay it is true that i love my class and most of my classmates, and i also love my friends-and-non-friends friends, but i have to admit that as a whole, i love lifeguards the most! [classmates, friends and non-friends, please dont be mad at me!]

bm test is next saturday. i hope i wont fail! i've never met the 3:15 timing before! omg im scared! from now until then, i have 3 trainings left! i promise i'll train as hard as i can, and do my best during the test. we can do this together! looking forward to march camp!

its been like a century since i posted something here! okay, maybe not a century, hmm, just one year! haha i cant believe that my last entry here was posted last year! so happy new year people! i know this is a very very late new year greeting, but yeah...

january is ending soon [actually today is the last day of january!]. i've gotten used to writing 2008 in my tutorials/ homework/ assignments instead of writing 2007. wow its been a month since i become a senior in school! being a j2 is not as bad as i expected YET! our class has been busy preparing for funOrama, although its still like 2 months away. we did 2 fund raisings, one of which was a success while the other was not so. other than that life in the first month has been quite relaxing without any stress. im very proud of myself for being emo for only 2 days through out this whole month! :D

okay im quite happy, as i just realised that my fringe is like, much longer now! so i guess i should go eat something before putting on the stupid rubber band to torture my poor teeth!

hoiiii! this blog has been dead for quite some time so i'm updating just to um keep it alive. we've all been busy la with school and stuff plus quynh and ha are like OGLs i honestly don't know how they cope man. me and quynh are taking sats on the 26th, (sadly not the same venue) and i dont know bout her but i'm confirm failing. HELPZ!

ok la i'm really tired/busy/lazy to write a nice long proper entry but yes. just an entry to say that we are still very much alive :) BUAI!

OCIP!

2007-12-15T17:13:00.000+08:00

i am finally back from the ocip trip! hmm im not exactly as happy as i thought i would be. it is werid to recall how much i didnt want to go for the ocip trip last week, and am missing it like hell now! i wonder why this keeps happening to me! argh!

anw this ocip trip is really a tiring yet enriching experience. i've learnt a lot of things over this short period of less than one week. and i think i've changed a lot too! the most obvious and unexpected change that has taken place is the fact that now i want to be a teacher! and if you know me well, you must have known how much i hated being a teacher before!

as a kind of reflection after the trip, i just want to thank:

- mrs soong [yes, now i call her mrs soong!] for all the scoldings and encouragements as well.

- quynh and giang and hang and han for helping me translate documents, mc scripts, speeches and everything else.

- jia jun, yong xin and hai ching for making the rocket workshop the most interesting workshop ever!

- zaneth for the leadership.
- sock and matthew for being such great emcees.

- ian for all the cute photographs of you-know-who that you've taken.

- sarah, xavier, adeline and aditya for making your workshops not as fun as mine, so that the students are more excited to attend mine than yours [just kidding!].

- clare, jia yi, hui min, tessa, luisa, pei li, sylvia and angela for the efforts you've put in to save the nearly-failed science practicals.

if given a chance, i certainly wouldnt mind participating in another ocip trip with you guys! see you guys when school re-opens!

oh and here are some of the photos we took during the ocip! i dont have lots of pics in my cam, 'cos most of the times we were using the school's cam to take photos! so lets wait until i meet aditya and ask him for the photos [hope that he doesnt delete all the photos like he did!]

Updates!

2007-12-06T23:25:00.000+08:00

i still havent finished watching OC yet! i actually wanted to stop watching for a while after i was done with season 2, but since the ending of season 2 was so arghhhhh, so i had to continue with season 3! i'll try to watch as much as i can before leaving for ocip!

omg i cant believe that the ocip group is coming tmr! hixhix what am i gonna do there for one whole week? i think im so gonna be bored to death! no movies, no going out, no internet! hixhix that sounds like hell, doesnt it? whats worse is the fact that i will be spending everyday with someone called S----! [for some reasons, her name must be censored! haha :D]

anyway i hope things will be fine in vinh next week. i hope my vietnamese has improved over the last few weeks so that it'd be good enough to communicate there! haha and im mc-ing for a concert, can you ever believe this? arghhhhhh!

the only thing i like abt this ocip trip is that quynh and i had a good time shopping for things today, most of which were clothes! haha super fun! i hope i'd be able to wear some of those clothes i bought today in vinh! (: (: (:

okay thats it for now! gotta continue watching OC! :D

Home sweet home

2007-11-21T19:13:00.000+08:00

It's such a long time anyone updated our blog

Ya, as what's written on the title of this entry, we are all at home now.

Okay, let's reflect a bit on the past year of J1. We were and are living happily in the ACS family, namely ACJC and ACS(IB). There have been good and bad memories, fun and sad times, yet we have all survived, all done our best, and all lived our J1 life to the fullest.

1. It was great the 3 of us came to ACJC together and lived in the same hostel for the first 3 months. Yup, first 3 months were GREAT, we all had a good time with Orientation, getting used to JC life, and having lots of new friends. Trang came along to NUS High after moving to ACS IB from VJ and we four stayed together like we used to in OH

2. Term 2 came with tests, like real tests, so different from our slack life during first 3 months. We came to know how it's like to get an A (which is not very common) and how it's like to fail as badly as with a U.
Some of us were busy with our CCAs, some were still jumping from CCAs to CCAs, trying out new sports, new clubs... Bonds were also formed within our classes, some liked their classes, some didn't... Still we enjoyed our life in various ways with various groups of people.

3. Term 3 with the horrible Term exam, the first serious exam we ever had in JC. Some didn't do well, some did pretty well, but all of us shared the determination to own Promos. There were still lots of tests, CCA trainings or practices, outings with classes, CCAs, friends, even OGs...
ASEAN dance was in August and we had a great time... dressing up, cam-whoring and meeting up with our old friends
Hostel life was still as crazy as it always is. School life was busy yet we enjoyed it..

4. Promos was a nightmare with a lot of stress. Ya, as usual, some scored well, some didn't and that's why we would try our best to put in more effort next year
Life was so damn fun and also busy after promos with OP (yucks), outings, trainings, shopping, blah blah blah... And then Trang and Ha left on the 5th, while PHuong and I left on the 16th of Nov, which officially marked an end to our J1 year.

One year is just so fast that whenever I look back, I see myself looking completely lost yet excited wearing my secondary school uniform sitting in a circle and listening to our OGLs on the 1st day in ACJC. We're going to be a J2 soon... So for whatever you wish to do but haven't done during your first year, hurry and do it, cos soon you would graduate.

Okay, let's talk a bit about our holiday at home. It's supposed to be WINTER now!!!! But what's going on??? The weather's so weird!!! Rarrr!!!! Maybe what annoys the most is that I can still actually wear my nice summer clothes but I bring only like 2 sets back. And I also cannot wear my winter clothes yet cos it's still.. pretty hot. Rarr....

We're having a gathering in Trang's house tomorrow for lunch, yay, then maybe we would go somewhere after that. We're staying over at my house, yay!!! It's gonna be fun man!!!!

Insights and Reflections

2007-11-01T18:00:00.000+08:00

PW is finally over. It is now time to reflect back on this memorable seven-month long journey.

23 March: we all gathered in the hall to listen to a boring talk given by mrs choong - the first pw talk of the year. the question paper was distributed to us, and that was the first A'Level paper that I received.

April came. and we met a new tutor named MR FORREST LIM. my first impression of him was A WEIRDO. he told us that we had to finish something called PI by the first week of April, while we actually still had no idea what PW was all about yet.

5 April: the first annoucement of PW groupings. there were 5 people in my group: Maureen, Shiyun, Veluri, Alvin and me. At that time, I only knew Maureen. I didnt even talk to the other three at all in class, if i remember correctly.

12 April: Shiyun left for PJ. The class was re-arranged [one group was broken up]. The new member of my group was Shiyi. I was overjoyed, 'cos she was from my first three month class, so at least i knew her a bit better than all the rest.

18 April: Maureen left. This time, the class was not re-arranged anymore. So the members of my group were Alvin, Hari [by this time, i already knew that Veluri was his sirname], Shiyi and me. AC117 was born! After three rounds of drawing lots in room A4.08, Alvin was chosen to be the group leader, and I was the secretary.

After several heated arguments, we decided to choose Laurie Baker as our groundbreaker. We somehow managed to rush through GPP drafts and submit the final copy on time.

...

EoM came next. We anyhow designed a survey which consisted of ten questions, and went to Somerset MRT station together to distribute those useless pieces of paper to random passers-by. However, the survey we carried out was an utter failure. As a consequence, we struggled to choose sources for our EoMs. In the end, all four of us ended up using articles we found from the Internet.

Then came WR. Having seen a sample of one of last year's WR in the library months before that, i seriously doubted if we could produce something which would be of the same standard. We went online to discuss how to do WR several times, as we were all too lazy to meet up. On realising that we didnt do anything for our project at all, we decided to construct a house model [which was a complete failure as well, just like the survey].

Continuous stress and pressure! emo day came after emo day. numerous evenings were spent in front of the computer screen. complained, whined and cried both in school and at home! but thanks to Alvin's and my classmates' encouragement, i overcame those emo moments. and yay! WR was submitted and re-submitted, and OP slides were finally done after several times of editting.

31 October: OP day! i wasnt nervous at all initially. Alvin made me nervous when he kept behaving weirdly while Sock's group was presenting. as usual, Hari told us "why are you so f---ing nervous? just anyhow whack la!". haha but what was actually more worrying was that i was damn high before our presentation! :D

i kind of screwed up q&a, as they all laughed at me when i answered the stupid question! but never mind!

...

i am happy that pw is finally over. but somehow im missing those days when we rushed through WR together, the OP practice sessions and everything else. AC117 has gradually become something very familiar to me. if given a choice, i dont know if i would mind doing pw again! haha :D

Alvin told me the other day after OP when we [Hari, Alvin and me] were eating lunch together that it would be the last time he talked to us. and he also said there would be nothing to talk about after pw, since pw was our most frequently discussed topic, and we seemingly only talked about pw everytime. Hari also told me that he enjoyed working in the same group as me, but he was more than happy that he didnt have to anymore! haha isnt it saddening? argh x(

anyways, i'd want to thank all three of you for the past months. although we really sucked, we made it through as a group! you all love AC117, dont you? and dont you all agree that Laurie Baker rocks? yes, he obviously does! haha hope we'll manage to get Cs for pw! haha :D

heyy:) so school's officially over and holidays just sort of started - except we're all still going back to school every single day for something or other. I'm most probably going back to vietnam on the 5th november, which is kind of sooner than i would like but then again it's probably good i go back than stay in singapore and waste my life (and money) away on stupid things. Heh.

Well this year just passed by really fast it's kind of scary. It's still hard to believe i've survived one entire year of IB. You know it feels like so many things happened this year but like at the same time when i look back i don't feel like i've learnt much at all. I haven't grown more mature, or smarter, or GOD i dont know more anything for that matter. In fact now that i think about it i'd really like nothing better than to go back to january and redo the whole damn year. But that's just me.

Haha ok hmm let's see there are SO many good shows i wanna watch. OC, gossip girls, grey's, heroes, prison break...and according to my friend south park is pretty hilarious too so i'll go check it out . AHHH so many shows so little time. I wished this holidays would just last forever. Super not looking forward to next year.

okies enough complaining. This is probably my last update before vietnam sooo. Bye.

phuOng. in love.

2007-10-28T10:58:00.000+08:00

i promised not to be in love again, but it seems like i've broken my own promise. haha anyways i like it when i am in love, because i am usually happy and high, unlike the last few days when i was always sad and down. hope that this time i can maintain my "in-love" mood for more than a week.

three of us stayed up to watch the korean show my classmate lent me. we intended to watch one dvd only. however, the show was so "die-die-must-watch" that we ended up watching 2.5 dvds, and by the time we finished, it was 5 am! haha :D

i thought i'd be able to sleep until like 12 pm, but to my surprise, i woke up at 9 am. i tried to force myself to fall asleep again, by continuing lying on my bed, but i was totally made awake by some phone calls. argh why did i receive three phone calls all of a sudden early in the morning? haiz i dont know why i cant really sleep well these days. Al told me that it was due to stress because of pw. is it true? hmm i dont know.

3 days till op. after that, everything will be over. but somehow, i dont want pw to be over. i know it is weird, extremely weird, but . . .

Quynh (:

2007-10-21T23:17:00.000+08:00

Seems like i've disappeared for quite a while

Life's been busy even when we've finished our exam and stuffs. There's still OP, OCIP, training, Bio stuffs for me...

We just went to Island Creamery tonight: me, Phuong, Ha, Szeching, Joahanna, Op, Bosith, Maxy, Lam and Neil. Omg, I ate until I felt like bursting, haha, all the stuffs there were so nice. We took damn lots of photos, haha, it was super fun!!!!! We even discussed about our plan for the Southeast Asia trip after A level

Ok, so here's the plan: We're gonna travel to 7 countries in Southeast Asia. Sounds cool? ya, I know it does. We'll all start from Singapore, all backpackers, heading for Malaysia. We'll stay in someone's house during our trip. Let's see, Malaysia we have Szeching, Phillippines has Joah and Neil, Cambodia has Maxy and Bosith, Vietnam has us, Thailand has Op and Nat, maybe we can go to Laos also... Yay, it sounds fun!!!!! Gosh, can't wait til we finish our As!!!! That's pretty far away, I know, but no harm keeping your dream alive, right? hahaha

Rarrr, it's late, and I still got OP, I&R, and ocip stuffs... And i'm still full

hello! im blogging in school. i've been alone in 07.07 for almost 2 hours, after OCIP meeting. luckily i brought my baby and i found out that there was wireless! PW meeting is postponed till 3 o'clock. so i'll have to stone here for another 1 hour.

just now when i didnt know that there was wireless, i spent time editting my group's OP slides and writing cards for my AC117. AC117 has gradually become such a familiar number, and i dont know why im very happy when i see or hear that number. i love AC117! yeah, 6 months ago, not knowing each other at all, we were FORCED to come together as a group. we've survived though PI, GPP, EoM, WR and almost I&R together as a group, and now only OP is left. so lets go through this last stage together as AC117 okay?

haha i cant believe that im actually hiding these texts. sorry for all the "should i just go and die?", "i feel bad for having done well for promos", "can i give up my marks for my friends?" and etc... but seriously, is it my fault that i did well for my exams?

yozZzZzzz :)

hi i'm updating too. And this is gonna be random too. Cos i'm boreddd. to the max): Yeah man.

okay so my dad came to singapore. I didn't even know till my cousin called and asked for his number in singapore, i was like, 'what?' Geez. I swear my family's just dysfunctional.

i don't know what i'm doing. I'm just screwed up. I swear.

Don't know why I'm still afraid
If you weren't real I would make you up now
I wish that I could follow through
I know that your love is true
And deep
As the sea
But right now
Everything you want is wrong,
And right now
All your dreams are waking up,
And right now
I wish I could follow you
To the shores
Of freedom,
Where no one lives.
Remember when we first met
And everything was still a bet
In love's game
You would call; I'd call you back
And then I'd leave a message
On your answering machine
But right now
Everything is turning blue,
And right now
The sun is trying to kill the moon,
And right now
I wish I could follow you
To the shores
Of freedom,
Where no one lives
Freedom
Run away tonight
Freedom, freedom
Run away
Run away tonight
We're made out of blood and rust
Looking for someone to trust
Without a fight
I think that you came too soon
You're the honey and the moon
That lights up my night
But right now
Everything you want is wrong,
And right now
All your dreams are waking up,
And right now
I wish that I could follow you
To the shores
Of freedom
Where no one lives
Freedom
Run away tonight
Freedom freedom
Run away
Run away tonight
We got too much time to kill
Like pigeons on my windowsill
We hang around
Ever since I've been with you
You hold me up
All the time I've falling down
But right now
Everything is turning blue,
And right now
The sun is trying to kill the moon,
And right now
I wish I could follow you
To the shores
Of freedom
Where no one lives

the OC has the nicest songs i swear:)

GP's over!
Phuong's birthday party was fun.
i finally figured out what that was.

what more can i ask? that's more than enough to make my day.
i am happy.
i am ready to fight this battle.
i am determined to win.
and no one's gonna stop me. No one!

cos you cant stop the beat
ever since this whole world began
a woman found out if she shook it she could shake up a man
and so i'm gonna shake and shimmy it the best that i can today
cos you cant stop the motion of the ocean or the sun in the sky
you can wonder if you wanna but i'll never ask why
and if you try to hold me down i'm gonna spit in your eye and say
you cant stop the beat

lalalalalalala

GOOD LUCK FOR PROMOS (i know yours start tmr) I KNOW WE CAN DO THIS AND NONE OF US WILL GET RETAINED/KICKED BACK TO VIETNAM OKAYOKAY!!

i dont know!

2007-09-10T16:51:00.000+08:00

i was doing econs IL in math lecture (!) when suddenly i felt so weird, like there was something inside me that was withering and growing so very very weary. i dont know why i felt that way. and that's even worse. they (Michael Scofield!) say when you can put a face to your fear, you'll no longer be afraid. but i cant!

anyway, i managed to finish econs IL at 3.30, way before the dead line, 4.45 :) Mr mervyn sek must be less ashamed of having such a student like me. i was shocked when i got back my econs essay which i did on teachers' day morning, in like 20 mins before breakfast. oh well, it was supposed to be a teachers' day gift for him, so it's just appropriate that i did it on the day itself. you know, to show my sincerity! and maybe he could sense the sincerity in my scribbling and decided to give me 17/25! wow :)

and i realized i've been giggling instead of laughing. and that is really not good. others will think of me as a bimbo! and i am not!

Ha the not- bimbotic- girl

ASEAN dance :)

2007-09-06T10:51:00.000+08:00

Hi, it's me, Quynh
Tuesday was ASEAN dance
We didn't really dance, haha, but the meeting friends and cam-whoring part was super duper fun
And these are so far all the photos we've collected. Oh, and my camera really sux!!! Gosh, the battery died though I had charged it for like a few hours just before the dance. We ended up crashing other people's photos, haha, that's why it'd be a hard time going around and collecting back all the photos we take :)

holidayssss

2007-09-01T10:26:00.000+08:00

holidays started after teachers' day celebration which was quite nice and of course funny. hahaha. eliza will have to suffer from us singing "my wish" for a long long time. and poor Jaz's jacket. it almost burst when errol, bryan and daryle tried it on. and omg, daryle could fit in, hahha, but he couldnt move a muscle after he wore it on. haha. it was hilarious. didnt do anything particular after that besides camwhoring with eliza sot candice joce jaz and qianhui while waiting for madam. she didnt come to class to receive our heartfelt present. too bad!!! and i bought a box of chocolate, intended to give to all my tutors, including kyaw saw lynn, but didnt cos couldnt find any of them. oh well, not that i didnt want to show my gratitude. ended up giving the chocolate to my friends on the way to the bus stop.

and i didnt regret going to trang's mom's place instead of having dinner with my friends. the food was really good. i ate so much i couldnt sit without feeling like my stomach was gonna burst. so i walked around, patting my expanding tummy like a pregnant woman. i want to go home. i want to eat food my mom makes. i miss all those times when my bro cooked and the food was not really edible. i miss dad too. he can cook too. and i love them so much for attending to all my demanding needs whenever im home. mom, i wish i could cuddle into your body and stroking your tummy. dad, i wish i could spend endless hours watching TV and discussing things with you. big bro, i want to go shopping with you. cos you pay for all the stupid things your sis wants. i love you all. and i want to go home!!!!!!!!!!!

Ha :(

it's Ha again!

2007-08-27T22:42:00.000+08:00

read Hui Zyi's blog today and realized that i havent blogged about 10 random things about myself. ok, here we go, for all the kay- poh people :)

1. i'm short :( and that is not because i dont eat onion or certain vegetables like what my friend told me. but think about it, short people have all the advantages in the world, ok, not really all, but like quite a lot. let's see, i can hide under my tall friends' shadows when it's hot during PE, i get to sit or stand in the centre of all the photos :), i can buy kid's stuffs which are cheaper since short people have small feet and small body :), and i look way younger for my age hahhahahahahahaha

2. i'm skinny and i dont like it. you may think i sound crazy but i really dont. i eat sooooooo much in the hope that i'll gain weight. but oh well, luck is not on my side :(

3. i'm lazy.... haha. i guess all my friends and teachers know this cos i constantly hand in my homework late or worse, sometimes, i never do :) of course this is not something to be proud of. teachers and friends, have faith in me, im working on it :)

4. i like dumb looking things ;) hippoooooo!

5. i'm pretty lame when i want to be, haha, ok, listen to my lame joke: where would Jack and Jill go if they were in Singapore??? keep guessing hahhaaha. oh, to Szeching: i dont mean to take over your position as the lamer! hahaha. ok, here we go, they go to RED HILL hahahaha.

6. ok, i dont want to admit this but my friends think that my jokes are not funny :(. do you????

7. and they think that im easily amused by the smallest things in the world. like maybe i'll laugh at you when you look funny? or maybe when you crack a not- very- funny joke. but then again, my sense of humour is different from yours and perhaps your not- very - funny jokes are my type. great minds think alike :) hahahaha

8. i love my class 1sa5: joce jaz sot elize candice qianhui kahmin xiangyi nana isabel vikki ruiyun qingye qiaowei leti kailynn mj alex din daryle errol bryan mingle yongxiang kwoksheng

9. i love ACJC and i really dont like people who bad mouth the school!!!!!!
10. i need to study for promossssssssssss

ok, maybe it'll be longer than expected

11. i love you, friendssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

12. i have new habits. getting depressed and eating and shopping to ease it away. apparently, it's to no aveil :(

13. i'm still depressed. and the worst part is i dont know why. i just want to be either alone or with a big group of people. if i'm with just 1 person, i'll pour my heart out and i really dont want that. i dont want to worry them. or maybe i just dont want to know my heart.... whatever. so friends, dont!

14. i sleep like a pig. and i'm going back to bed now.

ha :(

10 random things about me (:

2007-08-27T20:37:00.000+08:00

[hey hui zyi! im posting this entry 'cos u've asked me to]

1. i love my school, my class and my CCA! how i wish there would be some days when we only go to school to play and play and play! then, there would be no depression and no stress but just happiness and joy!

2. my classmates comment that i am super duper weird, 'cos i always do weird stuffs, like giving them nicknames (Cat, Rabbit, Fish, Penguin, etc) or talking to Cat's CATS and Rabbit's RABBITS or making weird sounds..

3. i love chocolate and simply everything that is related to chocolate.. now i am struck with this ROYCE craze! oh yeah, and TIRAMISU too!

4. people always say i am childish, but i think i am so NOT! i am going to be 18 in like a month okae? hixhix its scary! i dont wanna be 18!

5. i think i am an introvert, but the personality test which i took in school at the beginning of this year showed that i am an extrovert.. erm, i have no comments on this..

6. i am kay-poh! i think its fun to EXPLORE new things!

7. one of my hobbies is to create random scandals! Cat is one of the many victims of these scandals!

8. i love shopping!

9. i am frequently having this so-called BLUR MODE! when i am in this blur mode, i am really really so super duper blur that the word BLUR is seemingly written on my face!

10. i am a perfectionist! i dont know whether this is a good or bad thing, but yeah, i have lived with my perfectionism for almost 18 years, and i am happy with it!

i think this is fun! shall i continue? [hui zyi, now i know why you find listing random stuffs about yourself extremely exciting!] yeah, i shall!

11. equinox is coming! am i excited? i dont know..

12. i am not a good student.. its not like i dont wanna be a good student.. actually i've tried to be hardworking and all for so many times, but everytime i failed miserably..

13. i am good at entertaining people, but i suck at consoling others.. one obvious evidence is that my attempt to console my father this afternoon was super pathetic! at this point, the personality test seems to be true.. according to that test, i am the CLOWN!

14. i used to think that my cooking sucked, but i just realised that its not that bad! i can make TIRAMISU (of course, together with Cat!) and i can roll spring rolls nicely! i should tell my Mom this to make her happy!

15. i am random! its shown by the fact that i went around saying happy birthday to every single person i saw in school today! they were like, "today is not my freaking birthday" or "you've said this to my 3 times already"! hahas :D but i dont care! today is my HAPPY-BIRTHDAY day! happy birthday everyone!

i still wanna write some more, but i think it'd bore all of u to death.. so i guess i should stop here! hahas :D i shall go do gp resource file, or maths homework, or physics tutorials now!

oh yeah, btw, just as hui zyi has asked me to post this, i shall ask another 7 people to post this in their blogs too! but i wont repeat those hui zyi has asked! the 7 people are:

- josephine

- don

- angel (rabbit)

- stanley

- jia yi (penguin)

- kat

- whoever that has a blog

[so sad, sock and daniel and laurel and shiyi and sherlyn and my juniors and indora and cindy dont have a blog! if they do, i'd be super excited to know 10 random stuffs about them! hixhix this proves point number 6!)

have fun blogging!

bad habit

2007-08-27T15:46:00.000+08:00

went to Sock's house to make tiramisu cake and sping rolls on sat. i was so tired when i came back at 11. went to study at Joce's house on sunday but ended up going shopping instead. i bought this super cute " plastic bag". and no, it's not figurative language, its literally a plastic bag. but the way ppl said it made it sound so i dont know, not cute!!!! but its super cute. and its my new school bag. hahhaha
after so much shopping, i was exhausted so went to sleep at 9. wanted to wake up for roll call but phuong didnt wake me up. when i did, it was 2+. i couldnt go back to sleep and suddenly i thought about how ive been lately. i get depressed easily, and when i am depressed, i go shopping or eating, either way, it doesnt benefit me or my wallet. then i slept again. hahaha

im not happy now. hope this wont last long. i need to focus!!!!!!!!

Ha :(

i failed maths test!!!!!

2007-08-20T16:11:00.000+08:00

im sad, disappointed, angry and depressed. i should have studied more for the test instead of going out and shopping and wasting sooooo much time. i know it's all my fault but i just cant get myself away from all the allurements of shopping, sleeping and eating. i really think that i need to study seriously from now onwards. so ok, i'll go study for tomorrow's chem test now. byeeee!!!!

piss: i got a perfect 10 for maths test on integration!

ha :)

pisses: i wont be depressed if i have a mud pie to eat. NOW!

Cold....

2007-08-19T20:02:00.000+08:00

It's so cold !!!!
I was shivering just now... Omg, it feels like the monsoon season's coming soon, haha, like at home, when winter's coming. Suddenly I feel like going home, dunno why, all of a sudden... Maybe because i'm preparing for the OCIP trip, maybe cos it's suddenly cold today, maybe just maybe... hahaha, ya, i'm just being a bit crazy
Anyway, i'm sitting on my bed, wrapped in a blanket, blogging, drinking meiji, and it's cold outside. Life's good. Cheers :D
-Quynh-

it's raining outside!

2007-08-18T10:50:00.000+08:00

i love it when it rains during weekends that i dont intend to go out. i love the earthly smell just before the rain pours down. i love the fresh fragrance of the new grown grass after it rains. i love the feeling that it leaves me with: sleepiness. and the fact that i love most is that i can actually sleep without feeling guilty. it's weekends hello! hahahahaha

i love the warmth of the blanket because, duh it's cold when it rains. oh. suddenly i think of Mervin Sek's (mind your spelling and pronunciation! hahhaha)hamster. poor thing. i bet it's shaking and trembling inside that freezing cold staff room. he must have thought of the social benefits (all the other teachers have a new kind of entertainment and relaxation and he has all their appreciation) and overlooked the risk that the hamster might just die from hypothermia, if that happened, it would be too much for him to bear. or maybe not. but let's just give him the benefit of the doubt. hahaha. to the left, to the left.....

ha :)

thanks :)

2007-08-16T20:30:00.000+08:00

sorry for crying for no reason in school today! i didnt mean to make you guys worry about me.. but seriously i was just too pissed that i couldnt control myself.. hahas at least i didnt burst out into tears in front of the whole class, but somehow managed to hold my tears until i reached the void deck!

- thanks Daryl, my father, for asking me what happened and talking non-stop about Cao Feng, Anuj and Mohit to cheer me up! (although those were the stupidest jokes i've ever heard!)

- thanks Daniel, my gay friend, for always being so gay and bitchy!

- thanks Sock, my lovely cat, for letting my hold your hands but not letting me lick them, and for telling what to do!

- thanks Samson, the stupid Aw-Shih, for just simply asking what was wrong with me!

- thanks Mei Qi, Oriana and Wayne, my dear CCA friends, for asking me if i'd be going for lifeguard training.. hahas Wayne, my eyes were red not because i had eye infection! sorry i couldnt go for training today!

- thanks Queenie, my baby Banana, for flying to the void deck when u knew i was crying, though plants were not supposed to be able to fly, and for being so stupid!

- thanks Alvin, the respectable PW group leader, who is also known as Elmo, for telling me to pay no attention to HP (hahas now i know who HP is!)

did i miss out anyone? i think i did, but right now, i cant rmb! thanks lots.. really appreciate your concerns!

what a feeling!

2007-08-10T11:44:00.000+08:00

i read a book by this writer who i cant remember the name cos her book sucks. but i like the main character. she's independent, successful and confident. she's just lonely. not because she's too ugly to get a boyfriend, she's pretty attractive actually, just that she doesnt open her heart to anyone. she's scared that the relationship wont last and she'll end up confused, hurt and alone like her mom. what a feeling. so whenever there's a guy interested in her, she would turn him down and say good bye first. but the story ends with a happy ending :) she finally found a decent guy who really loves her ,whom she can trust with her darkest fear, whom she can feel safe, loved and secure with. i guess i like her cos when i read about her, i feel like im reading the story of my life, minus the mother part cos my mom is perfectly happy with her family, i trust, and minus the happy ending as well cos im not that old to settle down , plus, i havent found my mr. Right. anyway, the book would have been a best selling if the writer had been more like Cecilia Ahern or Jodi Picoult. but then again, they wouldnt have written this type of story.

i love

a place called here

The Curse of The Dancing Joker

2007-08-09T09:41:00.001+08:00

the dance wasnt that interesting.. the kids were still unexperienced, so they didnt know how to organise everything in a proper manner yet.. however, come to think of it, isnt it the same for every new sec committee when they organise the dance? definitely, our year committee did a better job then this year committee.. anw i shant make anymore comment..

hahas since we didnt really dance, we spent most of our time in marriott camwhoring! and here are the pics (:

proud of you

2007-08-04T20:22:00.000+08:00

Love in your eyes
Sitting silent by my side
Going on
Holding hand
Walking through the nights
Hold me up
Hold me tight
Lift me up to touch the sky
Teaching me to love with heart
Helping me open my mind

I can fly
I'm proud that I can fly
To give the best of mine
Till the end of the time
Believe me I can fly
I'm proud that I can fly
To give the best of mine
The heaven in the sky

Stars in the sky
Wishing once upon a time
Give me love
Make me smile
Till the end of life
Hold me up
Hold me tight
Lift me up to touch the sky
Teaching me to love with heart
Helping me open my mind

I can fly
I'm proud that I can fly
To give the best of mine
Till the end of the time
Believe me I can fly
I'm proud that I can fly
To give the best of mine
The heaven in the sky

Can't you believe that you light up my way
No matter how that ease my path
I'll never lose my faith

See me fly
I'm proud to fly up high
Show you the best of mine
Till the end of the time
Believe me I can fly
I'm singing in the sky
Show you the best of mine
The heaven in the sky

Nothing can stop me
Spread my wings so wide

[lets sing this song again some time, as we all did 3 years ago!]

2007-08-04T19:46:00.000+08:00

overall mood of the week: HAPPY :)

2007-08-03T20:51:00.000+08:00

my ex-classmates back in vietnam last time have already known their university entrance exam results alr.. very few of them received good news.. the majority are super worried now, as they are unsure if they can get into university or not.. come to think of it, im seriously thankful that i dun have to sit for such an examination! (although in fact, A'Levels are no better!).. haiz.. anyways i'll try to ask my dad to help them as much as they need, and hopefully Pie, Big and Et can get into the universities of their choice..

i did something very stupid today! here goes the story: shiyi, sock and i were walking from canteen to staff room to look for a teacher to borrow money to pay for our class photos, as shiyi forgot to inform the class to bring money the night before, so we lacked about $100.. we discussed who should be given the honour to lend us money along the way.. when shiyi suggested that we would borrow money from mr kwok, i shouted "nooooooo! he's gonna scold us badly! KWOKIE is scary!" damn loudly without realising that our dear MR KWOK was just walking in front of us.. on hearing the KWOK part of the KWOKIE, he immediately turned back, staring at me with his shocking expression (as usual) on the face "why?".. hixhix.. i was supposed to make up some reasons to defend myself, but i was just too shocked to say anything! arghhhh! why was i soooooooo stupid? he'd hate me forever! hixhix ;(

enough of unhappy things! hahas :D i dunno why i've been over the moon for the last few days.. there's no reason that i can use to explain my happiness.. sock is happy too, but she refuses to reveal what makes her happy! btw over the week, we (sock and me) have been exposed to a whole bunch of new discoveries about the guys and the girls in our class! and these are supposed to be kept secret! so yeah, i cant tell x( hahas looking forward to class cip/class outing! roarrrr so sad that today's class cip was cancelled!

2007-08-01T08:53:00.000+08:00

hello(: i'm kind-of-but-not-really sick today(what's with everyone falling sick??) soo i'm staying in hostel today sooo i figured i should probably update since i haven't for agessss.

anyway i've been really busy with school and uh everything else i guess. lots of stuff happening but i suppose nothing too serious so i should at least be thankful that there's not toooo much drama in my life right now(: ooh yeah my phone got confiscated for a few days - exactly how it got confiscated is another interesting story altogether haha - and i almost died. i lasted one whole weekend plus three weekdays without a phone and let me tell you it's really not pleasant.

roars and i'm SO broke it's not even funny. i need to start thinking of how to ask my parents for money, but i feel bad asking so maybe i should just starve. my form teacher's beginning to get annoyed with me again, cos i got a green form yesterday and today i didn't even come to school, PLUS i owe the school money (which school charges 50 dollars miscellaneous fees a month?! WHICH school does that i ask you). ah wells.

OHOHOH and i finally did my NAPFA!!!:D hahaha. well everything except 2.4. it was hilarious i thought i was going to die - and no thanks to stupid class people laughing at me - but haha i got my gold. oh wait that's assuming i pass 2.4. and come to think of it i might just fail the damn 2.4 especially since i'm like sick and everything.

ohhkays i shall now go study so maybe i'll fail less than two subjects when it comes to end of years. haha!

am i a nice person?

2007-07-29T17:19:00.000+08:00

erm, this is a hard question! i've asked myself so many times, and till now i still havent found out the answer yet.. sorry for being so random, but i just cant help but ask such a question after reading a friend's blog and talking to Na.. haiz, that friend seems to be quite emo at the moment, for getting not-so-good results for terms.. he sounds really really sad and disappointed and hopeless in his blog.. he seems to lose his sense of direction, and his enthusiasm.. totally.. completely.. actually its not like we've known him for long, so we dont really know how he was like before knowing us.. but we just somehow feel that we should have been nicer to him, or at least talked to him! anyways its never too late to ... be nice! so we shall be nice to him from now on.. [what's the definition of being nice anyways?] erm, maybe we'll ask him to join our study group, at least for econs, since we're the only few who take econs H1.. oh yeah, and i can help him with his maths, as my maths is quite good.. is this considered being nice?

~phuong~

Sick >_<

2007-07-29T10:36:00.000+08:00

I hate falling sick...
Though i'll have a valid reason to go to see doctor, get an MC and.... yah, pon school, haha
But it feels very bad, I'd rather fake that I'm sick to get an MC than really getting sick >_<
And I think I'm spreading the germs to everybody, haha. I got it from my class, I guess, then I'm now spreading it, haha... So all of you, take care hor.. with this weather, even without me spreading my flu, it's very easy to fall sick
Oh, and one tip for you guys when you eat the tablet: Don't eat the one that causes drownsiness late at night, because the next morning you will feel like shit !!!!

mass pon! xD

2007-07-26T08:29:00.001+08:00

IM STAYING AT HOME TODAE.. im kinda sick of school and everything.. i had headache, sore throat, cough, blocked nose, etc last night.. couldnt really sleep well.. but now im better alr, but still, i dun wanna go to sch.. and my teeth hurt, 'cos i've just had my braces tightened ytd.. that's why i've decided to take a day off to stay at home and rest! :) hahas daniel, alvin and bing also pon todae i guess! lols :D

SHAMELESS 5 / TOPLESS 5 :)

2007-07-26T08:02:00.000+08:00

hello! i hvnt been blogging for a while.. sorry i was busy trying to complete school work, study for tests, and prepare for BM at the same time.. now im rather free, compared to the last few days! yayy! i've submitted WR 1st draft, finished gp and chem tests, and more or less done with physics project! hahas and my overall results for this term turned out to be not that bad! I'M HAPPY! :)

yeah, like Ha and Na hv mentioned in the previous posts, we met up with Hui on sat.. actually i had to go to ntu in e morning for some usher training workshop.. i took e bus back from ntu to nush alone, while i was suffering from a sudden stomachache, and i was super scared that i might faint halfway, and noone would be there to bring me to the hospital! luckily i reached home safely! thanks to Ha and Na (for the porridge, warm water bottle, medicine, etc), i managed to get well by 8pm, and rush to holland v on time!

it was really nice to meet up with Hui.. 5 of us (Hui, Ching, Ha, Na, Meow) spent our time talking, playing not-so-sick game, eating and ... camwhoring! hahas :D this is a pic of the SHAMELESS 5 eating TOPLESS 5! oops, is it "SHAMELESS 5 eating TOPLESS 5" or "TOPLESS 5 eating SHAMELESS 5"? hixhix im confused! :p

GP package

2007-07-22T20:14:00.000+08:00

Why is the GP package this time so hard to digest ?? So dry, so boring, so long-winded, so wordy, so... political !!! Haiz, like I'm really gonna choose a question on politics to do for my A level >_<
Anyway, I should feel good, cos gp test sounds much better than Chem test on Wed. I really don't understand a single thing... Haiz... Okay, I shall finish writing this last sentence, saying goodbye to my friends on MSN, then right after that shut down everything and start working now !!!!!!!!!!!!

HZ and i bought two similar wallets from Salsa. you must use it ok, hZ?

PS: thx for the treat, SZ! and the funny game you thought of as well. we knew really a lot more about HZ! wink wink!

Friends!

2007-07-22T12:14:00.000+08:00

after a long long time of not seeing Hui Zyi, we went out yesterday, with our own made up excuse that Szeching had to treat us Swensens for whatever reason. haha. it was really great fun talking and hanging out with all 5 of us, like the good old days.
so we've decided that we would go out together once every two weeks. and this starts from next week. haha. i cant wait to hang out with Hui Zyi and quynh, phuong and szeching again. well, not like i dont see the three of them everyday, but it's different with Hui Zyi together.
hey, HZ, see, my blog isnt all about shopping. it's about studies and going out as well. and remember to apply to stay out on friday!

ha :)

PW!

2007-07-17T13:25:00.000+08:00

i had to stay in the hostel today to do PW! not that i like going to school. but i'd rather spend my day slacking in school than staring at the comp screen, thinking about what to write for introduction and literature review. i really seriously completely totally hate PW.
and the worst part is today's a half school day, meaning all of them are dismissed at 1.10! i'd have gone to school in the morning had i knew this earlier. haizzzzz

32nd Student Council Investiture

2007-07-16T18:22:00.000+08:00

e investiture was, as a whole, okae (: e only boring part was e speech given by e guy from dunno-where x( i paid attention thru out e investiture, except for that part :D yeah, as any other investitures, there were smiles at e beginning, and tears in e end.. almost every member of e 31st sc cried aft e whole thing was over, as it marked e end of their term as acjc councillors.. i think oliver was e 1st person to cry, and he cried super dramatically somemore.. i bet his love for acjc must be really great! (: i felt like crying when i saw them crying, as it reminded me of ohsc3 investiture a few months ago.. we also cried like mad! ;( omgosh i missed those days being a councilor in oldham..

confession

2007-07-16T15:34:00.001+08:00

I'm gonna confess....
I have broken the rule I have set for myself with Phuong and Ha as my witnesses... Ya, the rule to limit my shopping to one item per month and that I wouldn't buy anything til August since I had bought a damn-ex dress last-last-week...
Oh no....
And once more time, people said it's not worth it, juz like the dress I bought.
But don't you all agree with me: when you have to go all the way from Jurong East library to Orchard Library to find a bloody book about a stupid guy, when you are damn bored and damn hungry, when you have to suffer all of these alone by yourself, there suddenly comes ZARA, with a big sale up to 50%... And then you slowly walk inside, laying your hands on those silky pieces of clothes, trying them on one by one, and then realize one piece perfectly fits you, with the price 10 bucks less than usual.... Who would be able to resist the temptation ??? Huh ?? Huh ???
Ya, so I should not blame myself for buying it, hahahaha, right, I'm feeling so good now, hahahahahahahaha. The only frustrating thing is that the dress i bought last time, it's now 10 bucks cheaper than when I bought also... haiz... That's life man.... Never mind, I'm still happy now, hahahahaha

weekend =D

2007-07-16T15:09:00.000+08:00

My weekend was so packed !!! But hell, it's damn fun !!!
I got a class chalet from Friday to Saturday.. Very few people turned up in the end, like half of the class, and only 9 of us stayed over.. Well, but who cares, as long as we had fun
We had a bbq earlier, and it dragged until like 1am, haha. Then we played this emperor game, which was like damn fun with a lot of disgusting forfeits. Ya, trust me, a forfeit game wouldn't be fun if it didn't have a lot of sick and disgusting forfeits.. For example.... Well, I should not tell here, since I was one of the victims also, haiz.. damn disgusting, hahaha... If only my class could be like this all the time, like we really mixed, we really laughed, we really enjoyed ourselves.. as a class !!!
The next day I went to watch Harry Potter... Haha, we were like half an hour late... The movie was not bad, except that Harry Potter seems to be getting uglier and shorter.. We ended our day by taking 111 home and while Phuong and I were sleeping, Ha with her super-low sense of direction had played puzzle bubble until we reached its terminal, which was really in the middle of nowhere.. We cabbed back in the end, haha, we were all too tired and my heels were killing me.
Haiz, I guess it's time for me to do my EoM now, so I'd better stop here before it turns 4:30pm >_<

this whole turning-over-a-new-leaf thing is DAMN tiring i swear. it's only been one day of school and i already feel like dying. it's so tough trying to listen in class when all you feel like doing is put your head down on the table and SLEEEEP.

rain, rain and more rain

2007-07-08T10:39:00.004+08:00

[this entry was supposed to be posted last night]

the wind was blowing super strongly when i woke up in the morning, and it started to rain extremely heavily as i went to the toilet.. i started to wonder if the asean comm training session would still be on..

...

the training session was held in ecp.. we NUSH reps were half an hour late, 'cos of distance, the rain and our "blurness".. we were supposed to build a boat which could accomodate 5 ppl.. our boat was the most stable one, as we applied physics to plan the structure of the boat.. however, we didnt win although we thot we could have won.. haha that was a painful hit to our ego, 'cos we could never believe that we would lose to those secondary school kids.. anw we learn new things everyday! today one of those things that i've learnt is nvr to under-estimate our opponents!

asean comm is getting more and more bonded.. we have tonnes and tonnes of fun when we are together.. that's a good thing! haha im looking forward to asean dance alr!

...

i love the rain! its just undescribably nice to sit in the bus, looking at the raindrops which are falling down.. whats even nicer is to put your cheek against the window and feel the "coolness" of the raindrops.. and whats even "more nicer" is to walk under the rain with/without an umbrella.. there's only one bad thing with the rain: IM SICK!

aft i had dinner with Nat and Maxy, i went up to my room lethargically.. hixhix.. soooooo tired! i showered and went to bed straight away with my hair still wet! arghhhhh i hate falling sick! i cant breathe properly when im sick, 'cos my nose is blocked! i only woke up for a moment when Ha and Quynh came back from the bdae party.. omgosh there were like 10 missed calls registered in my phone! a very big sorry to those who called my last night! im always deaf when i sleep, esp when im sick!

anw gotta do EoM now! i totally agree to Ha that PW sucks! i dun understand why there's a need for us to do PW, 'cos its completely pointless! rooooooar!

btw shld i go for asean comm meeting or shld i join NUSh sports meet today?

~phuong~

EoM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2007-07-08T10:08:00.000+08:00

oh my gosh! i totally dont know how to do EoM. and i've got to do it by tonight, which is humanly impossible because there's this sports meet in NUSH that i'm supposed to be participating in for i'm the damn cluster captain :'(

i hate PW, i hate NUSH!!!!!!!!!!

ha :(

TRANG SAYS:

HELLO! i realised i haven't been blogging frequently in here, which is BAD. okay and so i shall attempt to update a bit more often haha.

uhh exams are over:D :D :D i swear post-exams just feels SO good, whether you're going out or you're lounging about in your bed because that constant feeling of 'i have to study' isn't there anymore, or like sometimes you wake up the morning thinking, okay i need to studyy...and then you realise that you DON'T. amagawds.(:

haha but okay i do have to study now. i have a million chem physics pracs to do, one mock IOP, one real IOP, a TOK essay, and business IA. whoever reading this out there and is thinking of going to IB next year please be warned: the workload is HELL. i mean like just look at all those abbreviations, don't they just turn you off. what do they even MEAN right. hahaha.

anyway my long weekend's been pretty good(: hung out a lot with my schoolmates and old sc friends. hm but yaa there was dinner at our senior thao's place, i ate so freaking much and still felt hungry, just goes to show how much of a pig i've become. hm and i watched harry potter 4 with HA MY DADDY yesterday. ahaha. and i tried sleeping in phuong and ha's room for a second time but after maybe half an hour i gave up, it was just too squashed and stuffy. haha.

ok so ummm since this is supposedly a blog about SHOPPING, i shall add in my latest shopping discovery(maybe i should like add a shopping tip to all my entries ho ho): BUGIS STREET! admittedly it's not as nice as your normal shopping centres, and you have to dig around HARD to find nice pieces, but there ARE nice pieces around and best part is, you get them for really really cheap(: haha and i'm sure phuong quynh and ha all know this already but hm for the sake of our avid readers right. i'm sure. hahaha(:

and just to make this entry a bit longer

BABES. remember this picture??!

hahah okay i'm off(:

Holiday is just too nice to say goodbye...

2007-07-03T08:13:00.000+08:00

Here I am, writing my 3rd or 4th entry after quite a long time absent. And today is the last day of holiday !!!! It's not like a real holiday lah, actually, just that we've finished our papers and we don't have to go to school until tomorrow. Still it's gonna be over soon, OMG !!!!!!!
I've been living in heaven for the past few days and it's seriously true. The feeling of going out without worrying at all about your study, watching movies all day long, sleep any time you want ( unless you have to go out again, haha ).. Oh no, can it just not end ??
Okay, let's see what we've done for the past few days
Fri: Just finished our exams, yay !!!! I didn't do well for my Bio paper, ya, as usual, haha, so it was not really a big deal. Actually it was irritating when the question on the only chapter that I studied the day before was the only question I couldn't do, and it's worth 20 marks !!! Okay, whatever, won't talk about it anymore, since it's long over, hehe. We went home for lunch, then set off for our Home journey, well, specifically, Orchard journey. It was Phuong's and my dental appointment actually, and we went shopping and eating after that
Well, to confess something: I bought a damn-ex dress. Well, it's not like really "damn-ex" but when your friends look at it and say "it's not worth it" then it'd become "damn-ex", haha. Phuong and Ha also got something, and we're so so happy, cos they're all from our favourite brand ZARA !! hahahaha... We love Orchard ! We love ZARA !!!
Sat: We all got our own work to do. Phuong went for her management workshop as she'd mentioned. Ha finished one half of Prison break season 2. Trang went out with her friends. And I went for the NUS Lifeguard competition as a timekeeper. Nothing much to say except that I was terribly sun-burnt and my face's still pain until now =(
Sun: Ha and I accompanied Phuong to go change her phone plan with her auntie. We were like damn lazy at first lah, but our love for Orchard ( =D ) had failed us to resist our temptation to jump on to the bus and head for Orchard. After hanging around in Paragon for a while, we went to Taka and later went back to our seniors' house. Trang joined us later for dinner there with 'chi Thao chim', 'chi Lan chim', 'anh Thach' and 'anh Tuan'. It just felt like a family dinner, oh, and we also found out about 'chi Lan chim' and 'anh Thach' love story, hahahahaha. They look so sweet together !!!

Mon: Omg, how come nothing's on my mind when i tried to think of what we'd done on Mon. Or is it because I've wasted the whole day doing nothing ? Ya, probably, just remember we chit-chatted for so long in the evening with Szeching..
Tues: haha, guess wad, I woke up at 8am this morning. Well, dun have any plan for today yet, but movie should be a good choice. Haha, have a nice last-day-of-holiday, peeps <3333>

19:30 - showered

20:00 - played comp

this is roughly wat has happened to me since morning.. hixhix.. im really really tired now.. omgosh i wanna die alr.. oh no, i shldnt complain so much! lets think of the positive side of the matter.. okae.. actually the workshop wasnt that boring.. at least my group was quite fun, thanks to Lex (omgosh he talked non-stop abt random topics throughout the workshop!).. we laughed a lot! hahas :D and we didnt really learn much abt project management, but we actually spent time bonding with each other! (honestly asean comm isnt that bonded! that's why we need bonding!) :D

anw.. enough for the workshop! yayyyyy! my exams are over! oops, actually i still hv SPA on Tuesday! but its just SPA, so its okae! lols :D im even happier cos i hv e feeling that i will pass physics, for the first time in my jc life! its quite surprising that i did better for physics than any other subjects.. hahas.. i studied till 2am the night before wat.. now i realise that studying really makes a difference! yayyyyy! my passion for physics is back! :)

oh yeah.. another reason that makes me happy is that i hv an aim for my education for the first time in my life.. NYU :) this shall be my aim since now! i will study damn hard to achieve this aim! yeah, trust me! i will study damn hard to achieve this aim! erm, actually this is not the first time that i hv an aim for my education.. my aim last year was ACJC, and i achieved it! oh wells, i sincerely hope that i will achieve this aim too! hahas i noe that hoping alone wont help! that's why i will study hard! NYU :)

one last thing to say before i go to bed.. i met sharleen for 5-10 minites todae.. it was so nice of her to give me jenang! she always knows i love jenang! i love sharleen too! i miss those days we spent together in SC and OH.. now i have classmates and hostelmates who are indonesians also.. but they are just somehow different from sharleen and the others in SC and OH! haiz.. suddenly i miss Ung and Sherdine like nuts! what are they doing now? hope they're doing well in Thailand and the Philippines..

~phuong~

my life's brilliant!

2007-06-30T14:47:00.000+08:00

yes! im over the moon now. i have no school until next Wednesday. i can watch prison break. i've got lots and lots of food to eat. life's good, man!
i guess thats to make up for the one week of suffering. well, not that i really mugged real hard. its just the sleep and food deprivation part. you cant feel good if you dont have enough sleep, you dont have time to eat or you just simply lose your appetite. Especially after the holidays. Yes I miss those good days. like the day that we had econs in the morning and math in the afternoon. during the break, i couldnt eat cos i was so sleepy everything else just didnt matter. same for today. i thought i'd fall asleep during the test. and it was all because of the coffee i drank at 11pm last night. it was supposed to help me stay awake. the thing is my timing was bad, i only felt the effect at 2 or 3 pm when i was already in bed. of course i didnt wake up to study since i've decided to revise at 5. so i just lied there, eyes wide open, swearing at myself for drinking coffee so late. and the worst part was i couldnt keep my head straight for one second after 5 when i was supposed to study.
but i guess everything went well today. haha. geog wasnt too difficult. at least, my head didnt explode like a stratavolcano which erupts with the Pelean style ( see, i studied a bit). and i didnt burn myself out like the nuees ardente. haha. sounds cheem?? bet you ppl dont understand. well, not like its necessary. it will just help you deal with our beloved mr. ksl. when he catches you, just say the geographic terminology and he'll let you go. he might even favour you if you know all the lithospheric processes. but trust me, you dont want that to be the case. its bad when he knows your name. yes, i learnt my lesson!

ha :)

term exams are over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2007-06-28T23:40:00.001+08:00

term exams!

2007-06-25T19:00:00.000+08:00

term exams started todae.. the two papers i had todae were gp and chem.. as expected, i screwed up both papers.. erm, the gp passages were understandable, but the questions were tough, and the vocabs were those words that i knew, but i couldnt explain them in my own words.. haiz, i couldnt find enough points for the summary, and i wrote only 5 lines for aq which carried 10 marks.. however, i was quite *high* aft gp paper (i have no idea why!).. hixhix.. at least gp wasnt as bad as chem! there were 3 sections in the chem paper: section A (MCQs), section B (structured questions) and section C (essay questions).. i didnt know that there was section C, so throughout the whole one and a half hours, i kept wondering howcome writing paper and graph paper were provided! i only realised that section C existed when there were 5 mins left.. anw i managed to earn 2 marks out of the total of 15 marks of section C.. that was how bad my score for section C would be.. section A and section B would surely be like shit too! after comparing my MCQs with Ha and Quynh, i got 7 MCQs wrong.. and i left a lot of blanks for section B also! -_-"

omgosh! i seriously wanted to study hard and do well for exams, but somehow i just couldnt.. meow.. what is happening? i think this is gonna be the worst exam ever in my whole life.. oh no, i dont wanna get my scholarship terminated.. no la, it wont be terminated that easily, since this is just term exam.. but i dont wanna receive any warnings either! oh wells, i think jc life is really different from secondary school life.. i really need to study seriously! someone is waiting for me in NYU :D okae okae okae.. i promise i'll really focus on my studies after term exams.. i'll finish all the overdue homework and assignments.. i'll pay attention during lectures, and do my tutorials.. i'll be a true scholar from now till the end of A Levels.. (:

i have econs and maths papers tmr.. i think i wont do well for econs, so there's no need to study! erm, and i guess there's nothing to study anw.. so i'll focus on my maths.. i seriously feel so stupid now! i hardly understand maths.. oh no, i dont wanna fail maths! i can fail anything but maths! :( okae okae okae enough! i'll go study maths now!

orchard lovers :)

2007-06-23T09:02:00.000+08:00

we're really deeply in love with orchard.. orchard rocks totally completely utterly!

yeah, ha and i went orchard ytd with the intention to study in the library there! however, when we reached, the library was not open yet! (this shows how early we woke up, how fast we travelled there, and thus how eager we were to study! ;p) so we ended shopping in orchard till ..... 4pm! at times, we felt quite guilty, but the temptation to shop was stronger than the guilt.. anyways its undeniable that orchard is the best place to shop and wander around! we juz love orchard!

aft shopping and wasting so much money on new clothes, bags and food, we didnt wanna spend animore time and money in orchard.. so we decided to go back to oldham, to study in the tuition room there! hahas we did actually sit in the tuition room in oldham for hours, but we didnt sit there to study, but to gossip! hahas i guess its juz our nature to be shoppers and gossippers!

having dinner in oldham was super nice! we talked and laughed like how we had talked and laughed every single dinner last year! though the ppl we sat with were different from those we had sat with last year, the homely feeling was still present! oh yeah, during dinner, our juniors kept teasing Gau2.. hixhix i felt quite bad, cos it was partially my fault.. meow.. i think he was angry at me! sorrrrrrrrrry! :( btw the only not-so-nice thing abt eating in oldham was that i saw some of the faces that i didnt wanna see.. hahas :D

okae.. i'd better go study now! i promise i'll study like hell today and tmr, to compensate for the 3 weeks i've wasted in vietnam, and the 2 days i've wasted here! i'll study! really! oh yeah, one more thing before i end this post.. i think im not gonna say 'yes' to ---! i'll focus on my study from now till my As! i will! hahas :D

NUS High School of Mathematics and Science! Im back! :)

2007-06-22T08:05:00.001+08:00

hahas this is like, erm, my 1st time blogging using NUS High School of Mathematics and Science's Intranet.. yeah, right, NUS High School of Mathematics and Science! hurrrah! im back to my beloved NUS High School of Mathematics and Science! -_-"

ytd flight was quite smooth.. on the plane, i sat next to Trang and Giang.. hahas the aircraft which we were in was a new one.. it was much bigger, compared to the normal A320, and quite well-equipped with advanced facilities.. before e plane took off, Trang and I were surprisingly paying so much attention to e instructions given not by the air-stewardess as usual but by a screen in front of us.. we felt as if we were some primitive ppl fr some isolated places who were never exposed to technology in our entire life! however, we seriously thought that e instructions were intesting okae? muahahaha :D

on e plane, i spent most of e time telling her abt ---! and she spent most of her time listening to my story.. we stopped our story when e food was served.. haiz i didnt eat much.. dunno why i juz didnt feel like eating ytd.. hixhix.. then we slept like piggies on e plane.. when we woke up, both of us decided that we shld STUDY! so we took out our notes.. right at this very moment, there was an annoucement, which said "attention all passengers! our plane is abt to land.. please return to your seats and fasten your seat belts blah blah blah" arghhhhhhhhh so what to do? we kept our notes, and ... fastened our seat belts! ;p

i finished unpacking in an hour.. that was fast right? :) aft showering, Ha, Trand and i went down for dinner.. i felt so damn weird speaking english aft 3 weeks of exposing to a purely vietnamese speaking environment.. hahas e 1st person i talked to was piggy.. dunno if he could really understand me when i spoke to him.. hahas however, my english improved quite fast, aft we talked a lot and laughed super loudly in e canteen! haiz.. they kept laughing at my fringe, and they said i looked stupid! hixhix.. my fringe looked okie wat.. they were juz not used to seeing me with a fringe!

anw guess what time i woke up this morning? hehe dont be surprised! hahas i woke up at anrd 6am.. that's like damn early! hixhix i dunno why i juz cant sleep! its not cos im homesick, cos im not really homesick that badly recently.. hahas im juz weird! okae okae.. tht's all for now.. gotta go orchard with Ha.. hahas i miss orchard.. hvnt been there for ages! hope we'll hv time to visit Oldham too! i miss tht place like hell! ;(

ppl, changi's not only one of the best airports, it's also one of the best places to study. trust me

2007-06-21T20:57:00.000+08:00

Like i blogged yesterday, i went to Changi. to study. haha. i sat in BK in terminal 2. i was like one of the first few ppl there la. and its so weird if i dont buy anything and just sit there. so i bought BK chicken at 9 am. and ended up eating it at like around 2pm. the burger was so cold and hard. haizzzzzz. lucky i brought the Lindt chocolate that Sock gave me. it was damn nice, and guess what, its orange flavour! haha. nothing beats orange. both the fruit and the colour :)

i cant believe i was so caught up in studying that i forgot abt the burger! how can ppl forget to eat???? and i think theres only one possible reason to this. BK is a freaking conducive place to study. and there were a few ppl who went there to study. haha. i was surprised. thought i was the only freak.
oh sth funny happened today when i was waiting for Phuong to exit the gate. i saw her and Vizu so i gave them the chocolate which had been sticking together since it was hot. Vizu took the whole thing so i was yelling at him and telling him not to. somewhere along the way i spat out some vulgarity. and when i said it, he wasnt listening and walked away. so i was facing this woman and swore! surprisingly, she smiled at me. well, to be specific, she was smiling at my Lindt!haha. she asked where i bought it and when i offered her some, she refused to take. phuong saw that and she was like ' no, are you stupid. dont give her.' haha. you know, shes a chocolate addict. so she cant stand seeing it being given away. haha. cant really blame her.

and ppl. i mean trang, quynh and phuong! this is supposed to be OUR blog hello? pls write something!

ha :)

have you ever seen a person studying in Changi?

2007-06-20T19:53:00.001+08:00

I'm gonna be one of those freaks to study in Changi tmr.
I just cant concentrate in my room, too many distractions i guess, like the addictive computer, the inviting bed and the tempting food. Omg, term's coming and I havent really started yet! I'm gonna fail. Badly. :(
ok. its not like i want to travel all the way from west coast to changi just to find a noisy place to study. I have to fetch Phuong and them all tmr. the thing is their flight only lands at around 4pm and im gonna be there from around 9 am. hurrah. so i have about 5 hours to dump all the rubbish that's commonly known as knowledge into my just- vacuumed brain. hope i can do a bit of math and chem there. those 2 are my worst subjects, besides GP, econs and geog.
and i seriously think that i've become stupider since i came to singapore. my math sux now, i've been stoning in almost all chem lectures and tutorials, and asking me to do geog is like asking phuong or quynh to cook! oh sorry, no offense. its just a fact, mere fact :)
yay, tmr everyone will bw back, trang, phuong, Szeching, oh no, not quynh. aiyoh, I've been staying in the hostel alone for so long. cant wait to see you guys again.
ha :)

I'm going home !!! Yay !!!

2007-06-16T22:12:00.000+08:00

Haha, here is my entry after a long time being too lazy to type anything
Well, I've just finished my work attachment today... Well, as you guys might have heard of, ya, it's not so of a very great experience. I mean, the work was quite boring, and the time commitment was too much ( ya, esp when you're kinda stoning 8 hours a day ). The people there were nice though, my mentors and my colleagues were super nice and friendly, and funny also, haha. But, ya, I'm totally absolutely extremely happy since i finished it. And, more importantly, I'm coming home tomorrow !!! Yay !!! Though I'll have to bring back lots of files and notes to mug, it'd still be great, hahahaha

Ooh, and some more, I ended my attachment with a very nice meal !!! Cos we had to attend a naming ceremony for an oil rig, we stayed back for lunch - a buffet. And desserts were like super-duper nice !!! They got fondue, with lots and lots of marshmallows, strawberries, grapes, blah blah. They got cheesecake, oreo cheesecakes, vanilla cream puffs, strawberry, grape and peach tarts... Omg, recalling them makes me feel like drooling >_<

NEway, haha, i'm going home tomorrow, so i'll phone you guys after i got home. And Ha ha, dun miss me, k ? Though I know you'll do <3

Better go and finish packing my stuff now... Urg, i'm so lazy >_<

Prison break!

2007-06-14T09:09:00.000+08:00

so i decided to end my holidays by watching prison break.
I promised myself that i'd start studying for term exam after i finished the show.
well, that means my hols have technically been over. the thing is i havnt actually touched my notes and files!
i woke up everyday at around 9 or 10 am. for those of you who really know me, its not a surprise rite? :)
oh well, not that i feel guilty about sleeping too much. i seriously think that sleeping is necessary and essential for the healthy growth of a youth. and of course the more the better :p
and eating too! so trang and phuong, you guys must do me a favour. help me buy thit bo kho k? haha. u know, its my favourite (besides sleeping). thx a lot (:
ha :)

2007-06-13T16:58:00.000+08:00

hi(: LOOK IT'S MY FIRST PROPER ENTRYYY haha.

so vietnam's been rather okay, i've mostly been staying in and trying to study. er rather unsuccessfully though): so far i've only started on chem and physics and it's a NIGHTMARE i swear - result of not using your brains for over half a year. i feel stupid seriously. i really really really wanna pass common tests ROARRR

ok i actually don't really have that much to say since i haven't exactly been up to much this hols. mostly boring family gatherings and stuff! haha SORRY! i shall try and update properly next time. QUYNHHH! how's your work attachment (actually you dont have to answer that i know it's horrid) hahaha COME BACK TO VIETNAM SOON

- TRANG(:

Convectional Rain :D

2007-06-12T21:28:00.000+08:00

hahas its raining very heavily outside.. if i rmb correctly, this kind of summer rain is called convectional rain.. hahas.. im so proud of myself, cos i can rmb sec 4 geog.. haiz.. anw i cant go out cos of the rain.. why is the weather so strange nowadays? it was like super duper hot last week, and it keeps raining this week.. erm, is it cos of global warming? im not sure.. i'll check my gp environment package when im back to Sing.. hahas.. hopefully the ans is there.. OMGosh, mentioning abt gp, i suddenly realise that i still havent done my gp compre and compo yet, and both of them are like one-month overdued.. arghhhhh and my econs essays also!!! hixhix -_-''

during dinner juz now, i watched a part of this chinese ancient show on TV.. erm it was juz like any other chinese ancient shows that i had watched before: the whole china was divided into small parts; each part was considered a small country; each had a king who had his absolute power; under the leadership of those kings, these countries kept fighting for some reasons i dunno; then wars happened which benefited noone but only brought abt deaths of the innocents.. yeah, this show was like that too.. the part i watched was abt something like the consequence of a war between a big country and a smaller one.. the smaller one lost, obviously.. in order to protect his people, the king of the small country decided to sacrifice himself by voluntarily going to the big country to be the big king's slave.. he suffered from all the terrible terrible tortures through out the journey from his country to the big country, for example, he was starved for dunno-how-many-days; he had to walk like an animal for dunno-how-many-miles; and worst of all, he had to eat SHIT to entertain those evil generals of the big country.. however, all these physical tortures were still nothing, compared to the his mental pain: his own people thought he betrayed his own country! oh yeah, and his wife also accompained him to the big country, which means that she had to suffer from all the same things..

honestly, the show was boring, cos it was more for the 5X or 6X, not 8X like me.. but erm, i dunno why it kinda reminded me of my sec 4 lit text - TET.. "life is short and unpredictable" (hahas mrs lim, are you proud of me as i still rmb wat you taught me a year ago?).. anw back to the show.. hahas i noe its weird, but i respected the king of the small country for his patriotism and bravery and the queen for her love for (the power of love!) and loyalty to her husband.. i bet it must be super hard for a king and a queen to undergo all th0se tortures.. hixhix -_-'' even thinking of them being tortured scares me to death alr.. luckily i wasnt born in those ancient times..

OMGOsh! ~~ why am i talking so much abt chinese ancient show todae? is there anything wrong with me? hahas, but anw i still prefer korean shows! lols :D

~phuong~

2007-06-09T09:55:00.000+08:00

haizzzz!
holidays are damned boring. i'm pretty much doing nothing, besides watching the OC, eating, sleeping, and going to changi as often as once a week!
oh, talking about the OC, i feel so pathetic, not really, just a little chinese- inadequate. well there was no number on the discs, just chinese characters out of which i obviously couldnt make any sense. so i just put in every disc and tried my luck. unlucklily, i couldnt remember where i was watching until. oh well, so i had to sit there i think of some other ways to figure out which disc to continue with
then all of a sudden, this brilliant idea flicked through my mind
well it might not be very brilliant for some of you, but for a person whose brain was obsessed with no more than eating, sleeping and watching soap for the last two weeks, it was undoubtedly excellent.
so i went on the internet, opened some chinese english dictionary and typed in five ( oh fortunately i remembered finishing disc 4). and there came the result, dahdah
to my horror, there were more than one word, i, of course, being a chinese- inadequate individual as mentioned above, couldnt know which character to pick. plus they all looked the same to me. so my full- of- nothing- recently- brain had to do some thinking and analysis again.
oh, as weird as it may sound, it actually came up with a pretty good idea. that is to look for three, as in how does it look like, then see the position of the exact character. oh, dun misunderstand that i dont know how number 3 looks like in chinese. its the 3 horizontal sticks lying on top of each other rite? yeah, im just chinese- inadequate, not chinese- deprived.
so i found out how it looked like and continued watching the show. well, i couldnt remember how it looks like now. not that i care.
and i think i love the OC. trang said she wanted to go Berkeley so that she could travel to the orange county anytime. i thought that was a pretty cool idea, i can come and visit her sometimes

ha :)

BORED!

roarrrrrrrrrr.. im supposed to go out with my frens todae, but since i cant borrow e motorcycle from Bin, i end up stoning in front of the comp screen at home.. i HATE her! arghhhhhhhhh she can juz use Mom's motorcycle and lend me hers, but she doesnt want to do so.. soooooo mean! i wont talk to her animore... im ANGRY! grrrrrrrrrrrrrr x(

oh ya, haha, i went shopping with Mom ytd.. we went into this shop, and the shop assistant kept looking at me for no reasons.. i didnt really pay attention to her, so i didnt realise this.. but when we left the shop, Mom told me that the shop assistant asked Mom if im Vietnamese! haha she told Mom that she was surprised when she heard me talking to Mom in Vietnamese, 'cause she thought that im a foreigner, since im too dark.. <<<>

although i have nice food at home, i go shopping and buy whatever i want almost everyday, i dont have to study and worry about exams and tests, i still feel that there's something missing! i wasnt sure what's missing ytd, but now, i think i noe alr.. Ha, Quynh, and Trang! i think i miss our presence around me! hixhix it was so nice talking to you all on the phone last night.. though the conversation only lasted for like 20mins, i was soOooOoo happy after i talked to you guys.. only then did i realise that you guys have always been very important to me.. thanks for always being there! :)

the weather in hanoi now is not as bad as i expected.. its normally super hot during daytime, but quite cool at night.. so i still manage to sleep in peace.. haha i dunno why i have this wierd feeling: i think i miss NUSh.. erm, no, not really, i dun miss NUSh.. to be exact, i think i miss Spore, which means i miss you guys okae? :)

rmb i kept worrying that my parents wouldnt recognise me? yeah, sadly, they really didnt recognise me when they saw me in the airport.. hixhix.. when i waved at them, they just glanced right through me as if i were a total stranger.. then i waved again.. this time my brother looked at me, turned somewhere to look at someone else, then turned back when he suddenly realised that the BLACK person over there might be his beloved sister.. oh wells, i was disappointed, though i had already predicted this kind of situation to happen..

everyone says im BLACK! erm actually they never use the word BLACK directly.. instead, they keep PRASING me by saying that "wow! your skin complexion is damn cool! its like CHOCOLATE colour!" (i wonder what's so cool about chocolate coloured skin complexion!) or "at least its EVENLY BROWN!" :( what kind of compliments are these? they can just tell me sincerely that im BLACK la.. now i kinda accept the fact that i'll be BLACK for the next 2 years!

this picture captures my leg and my mom's one.. its quite obvious which one mine is and which one my mom's is right? :D

oh and i had my hair cut todae.. i think i look quite stupid, cos im now having a FRINGE while the last time i ever had a fringe is like more than 5 years ago..

my home has a new little kitten.. its name is Nu.. haha.. it was supposed to be named Lu, but since Bong couldnt pronounce the kitten's name properly (you know, she always has probs with the L and N words), we decided to call it Nu.. (: the kitten is very small.. compared to the teapot you see in the photo, its juz slightly taller but smaller.. haha tell SOCK i upload its photo here, and ask her to go see it, cos she's quite excited to see such a small kitten!

i've come to a conclusion that its almost impossible to study at home.. despite how determined i am, i dunno why but i juz cant study.. haiz.. anw i'll find a way to force myself to touch the damn thick file that i brought back SOON.. haha and nana, i'll figure out how to use internet phone and i'll call you guys as soon as i know how to use the damn thing..

Quynh

Yay, i'm back from my first day of work attachment... Well, what to say... It's damn BORING !!!!! Actually it's because my mentor was not here today, so the people there totally didn't know about what to assign us... really totally !!!! So I was really stoning... hik hik... Nvm, i think tmr would be better cos the mentor's coming tmr, hahaha

Wondering what Phuong's doing right now. Hey, do u know that u've totally disappeared since Sunday ? That is not nice, k ? Must think of us all the time leh... think of us starving here, broking here, and boring here.... hik hik hik

Our pic taken at the dentist's

This week we're all walking our own way and seeing one another very few times. Szeching's having her camp in school until Friday. I'm having my work attachment every day, leaving the hostel from lyk 6am til 6pm. Ha migrates to Sam's room to study, Trang goes out with her friends and she'll also be leaving on Thursday. I'll migrate to Ha's room at night, haha

Ya, that's our situation rite now.........

Haha, think it's time we should go out to ease our boredom away :)

I'm bored stiff!

Phuong's bck in Vietnam, enjoying herself.

Quynh's doing Work Attachment and only comes home at 4pm.

and i'm supposed to be studying now. what the hell am i doing?????

yesterday when me and quynh sent phuong off, she treated us chocolate cake.

it was yummy. thx a lot phuong :)

oh i didnt know tt America's next top model's back! i almost missed the whole season, cant believe it.

yesterday was so funny when one of the models insulted Nigel. not that i dont like him, he's my fav judge actually, but the way he reacted was a bit childish. haha. he gave negative comments about her later and he looked like he was really pissed.

and tyra was still as plastic as ever! she never changes the way she talks about eliminating one of the girls:

there are 5 beautiful girls standing in front of me ( trying to look sincere)

but i only have 4 photos in my hands ( blinking her eyes apologically)

the girl whose name i do not call must immediately return to the house, pack her things and leave ( everytime she says this, i always hav a feeling she's going to cry )

the first name that i'm going to call ( she looks more scary than miss j. alexander!)

danielle ( example) ( and she looks like an angel at that moment)

congratulations, you're still in the running towards becoming America's next top model.

and blah blah blah.

it's entertaining though, watching her talking the same thing every sunday nite. it's like some medication that helps you to sleep in a happy mood. so that the next morning you wake up for school, you dont feel like slamming your damned alarm clock (or your handphone)

ha :)
