I reached school super early today, 7.25am! All thanks to that annoying chinese teacher who wants us to hand in our chinese work by 7.35am if not she'll deduct marks from our ap. I spent 5mins++ trying to search for her pigeon hole. After that.......i strolled to the assembly ground. There seem to be a drastic change in me. I used to reach school the earliest and sat right in front. HAHAHA. But guess what, i'll be on the dot and stand right behind now.
MsChan's got a shrieking high pitch voice which keeps one awake during her gp lessons. I couldn't buy HLmilk to go to maths lecture because we were already late. You won't fall asleep because its extremely amusing to listen to pengkang&amer cursing and swearing at the back,hahaha.
I did my 'looking-at-teachers' armpit hair thing'(just like in secondary school)during physics TO STAY AWAKE. I influenced Amer and he couldn't help but to keep staring too. HAHAHA.
Physics teacher took my eraser to do a demonstration and i whispered to Amer, "he did not ask my permission."The next moment, physics teacher threw it on the ground. I can't remember what happened after that.
I practised isolationism during the second break to revise chinese. Winifred knew where i hid myself and she came over to tell me that Rachel&Wenjing came back.
Wenjing:What are you doing?
Me:Chinese laaaaaaaa!
Wenjing:Woops, chinese? Can't help!
This made me remember what he said in response to the chinese teacher's question during PAE.
He was darn humorous.
I realised that i didn't have my chinese textbook. Before i got real panicky, a kind soul saved me. Thank god Yyvone taught me a way to get a chinese tb FOC. I got away from copying lines,yay.(the passage totally suck) I LOST MY CHINESE TEXTBOOK.(not mine actually)
When chinese lesson was about to end, the entire group of chem students got really anxious. We were anticipating for our doom day.


















We were like, hurry, hurry before she comes!
ZHANG CHENG WAS SO FUNNY. HE FILLED THE DISTILLED WATER BOTTLE WITH HCL. HAHAHAHA. I CANNOT STOP LAUGHING AGAIN.
At least, the scoldings were over TEMPORARILY.



























Jerry drew these randomly during chinese. He got artistic talent, realllyyyyyyyyy, omg!

When i was about to start to do my gp today, Amer's point totally made me laugh for a whole 10mins. Of course, as compared to Kenyi's picture on stomp,(which i laughed for 20mins) its not as long la. He is sooooo, simply comical. (maybe i could use the word jokertive(funny), created by daph while doing telesurvey. I remembered laughing for superrr long,together with crystal. For you info, we were interviewing people on the phone, but we literally burst out laughing upon hearing that from her. Can you imagine how the interviewees(right or not uh?) reacted? Shucks, i miss her, although she always refuse to let me leave her house even if its like 2am in the morning) Out of a sudden, i yearn for the day when we can gather as 4H again, i miss Zawani, Becca, Rachel, Siti, Aini, Hannah my love and all.
Anyway, went to AC's fun-o-rama yesterday with Wini,Adeline,Judith,Jolyn,Jamie(Js!LOL). Bought the tickets but didnt spend much, because we couldn't decide what we should buy. Met many familiar faces, super cool. I saw Dickson, Dickson and Kenneth, which totally brightened my day. Have another og outing, shall we? Went to Shaun's booth, that actor i think. The menu stated, "HOTDOGS". I thought i would get the hotdog only but they gave me the bread too. Feelign extremely satisfied with just the hotdog alone, i threw the bread away.
Um, went bugis with wini,judith,zihui&wanting(girls). Also, with kennedy,eugene,broadrick,shawn&yongkiong(obviously guys). I just followed around, and totally had no idea to where i'm walking. Bugis street=maze=omg. I feel joyful to see them happy because they bought their stuffs, don't ask me why, we should just spread joy together! I went to meet BryanLong after he finished packing up his class booth at fun-o-rama. How i wish i could relive the times where Shuyee,BryanLong,King and i went out together.
People just enter and leave your life, so quickly and abruptly. Sucks.
Jo,Mel,Wini,Rachel the tourguide for the day! She brought us around to get food and all. She's so sweet&nice! I miss her and i hope she's doing well in ac though her heart is noticeably with all of us!(hahaha, please tell me its true. lol)
Sheesh, wini, i just realised that i'm always the fellow having food with me. Oh man!
& before we went for PAE og dinner on friday night, i grumbled, "i'm hungry!" and rachel said, "you're always hungry,hahaha!"
Oh man!Shucks!

Went for leaders' night yesterday! I went to crash with the O2 ogls but i was late. Dad drove me to school and it made me reached school much earlier than taking a bus. I stood outside the hall, feeling so lost because i couldn't find the rest of them. I partnered Delwin and went in to dance superstar. Chori-chori was like a fastforwarad version. The entire programme remained the same, hahaha! The emo session didn't really got us emotional. The mood was WRONG. Szeting and i went to crash different families and we tried to do stupid stuffs to make their mood a little more lively. Many stuffs happened within the people themselves. I got a free milo and i left school at about 11pm? I saw hell loads of rats. Scared the hell out of me, omg, that sight, that particular sight, YYYYUUUUCCCCKKKSSSSS!
I had pc today, i was anticipating for tougher activities but there weren't any.
Chemistry was depressing, really. Nerve-racking as well. I got scolded like so many times, first time of my life, thanks.
"Melissa! Wake up!"
-yes madam-
-but i got dreary&sleepy,then...-
"Melissa! You better wake up&not fall asleep, go and wash your face!"
--------I CAN EXPLAIN-----
You know the weather is freaking warm recently, especially in a place called the chemistry lab. I was craving for ribena ice-blended and...i dozed off. Weren't on purpose!
As she caught me pouring the solution into the burette on the table, she 'said',
"Melanie! You think you're very tall is it? Even Max being the tallest in class cannot do that, you cannot also! Put it on the stool when you're pouring the solution!"
"Melanie! Put on your safety googles!"
"Melanie!EH? MELISSA...(and i forget what wrong stuffs i did again)"
-------I was called Melanie thrice, repeatedly------
When i realised Amir got 8(full marks) for his accuracy, i felt so eagered to show her my paper so that she can finally praise me like for once? HOWEVER, i made a slight mistake and filled in the wrong numbers and this was what i got.......
"What is this! You don't know how to count is it...How can you make these kind of mistakes?You...You...You..(i got so freaked out that my mind went blank while she went on)
------So scary-------
Argh, fearful of her now, really fearful. Especially when i went up to her to tell her that she wronged Jasmine, i'm dead, really, blacklisted probably. Shucks!
Omg...i'll have nightmares.
I think the feeling of being ALMOST late but not late yet is really exciting! This may sound crazy but...i sat at the bustop at 6.50am and let SOO many buses pass just to board the 7.15am bus and reach school just on time recently. I mean like, i don't know what to do if i reach school early, so i might as well reach school on-the-dot?So contradicting huh? I'm super afraid to be late but i don't want to reach school early as well. Don't know what i'm talking about either, BYE!

Taekwondo was super hilarious today but i have second thoughts about it now. First, i did not have long track pants, which was my first, "OH NO!"Then, though Shuyee brought her gi, she accompanied me and we wore fbt shorts(DOING TAEKWONDO!MANNNNNNNNN) I psychoed Michelle to wear fbts like us so that we don't appear odd,hahaha! Then there was Winston, who gave me the, ":O" look when i did the moves. Ted was chuckling at one corner while eating seaweeds. Winifred was laughing together with a few of the touch-rug girls. I was like, "don't laugh at me!" In actual fact, i found myself really awkward doing those kickings and all.
History was super fun, not because of the lessons but because of the class towards her. I took the picture of her but i realised i can't blog such stuffs because of some jj reasons. Booo, i was laughing like mad, caused hysteria in class, especially during PW, Amir that idiot, his one sentence comment was omg funny!
I finally know how to put my thoughts in place. I finally understand why. I finally could get what was going on! Help!It cannot be solved!

Man, no one understands how panicky it gets when you're about to be late? Its feels really weird to look around and see that i'm the only person feeling tensed. I asked Afrizal anxiously,"HOW HOW! I'm gonna be late, no, we're gonna be late!!"He taught me a solution in a carefree tone. In the end, i reached school on the dot but he was late. Hahaha. Nobody else was worried, EXCEPT for me. That's how i judged it by looking at all the "late ah?don't care lah,hahaha" look. I want to have that kind of attitude and i hope i have, if not, i'll go berserk,stressing over nothing! Jianrui said that he didn't really bother about being late until i got him stressed up by all my, "how.....later we late for school howwwwwwwww?"Everyday, i just reach school on-the-dot.(wellllll..almost:D)
I don't know, school was alright yesterday. Should be, EXCEPT for chinese lessons. I think i almost died doing chinese, can you imagine all the blanks on my paper?! Its like, there's a pause in every sentence and i have to let the teacher fill in the blanks. PengKANG helped me to fill in all the words that i didn't know how to write. Thanks!! Shenn kept making me laugh throughout the chinese lessons with her funny funny idioms and her chinese tone. Since there is CDAYL going on, there will be no chinese teacher in class for the entire week.(shout hurray!) Oh yeah, Shenn reminded me of becca and chel in chinese lessons during sec school days, they were real jokers:)(I MISS THEM LIKE HELL:()I could not go home early because it was like pouring. I stayed in school and Damien taught me maths. He's awesome while i really had a hard time learning.
Okay, i'm lazy now. AC's goal was fluke(quoted,pengKANG). I totally agree. Tay,Jamine,Vy and Tay's friend were screaming like crazy(a lil loony) though we actually don't really get the game. We were asking one another questions but come to think of it, why were we asking questions among ourselves when we don't know anything at all?Haa:D I agree that soccer matches have climax. It was a random remark from some random spectator,hahaha. Fascinating indeed! Hey, we did cheer for the players! Tay and I realised that we lost our voices when we just cheered a little, hahaha. It was probably because of the chemical effects of Maltesers Dark Chocs. PengKANG told me that the people said, "the ogls are always not around when we need them to cheer but they are always around when we don't want them to be around." LOL.
I think we should all start having conversations with the cleaner auntie from school, we should make her forget her troubles and live a jubilant life, happily ever after!








Damien, EGoh and I.














Didn't reveal the face on purpose. I think my class's quite wacky. Durga said we pwn Mr Kuek like hell.(I'm beginning to like them much, much more)














Bryan came back from ac, his heart is still with us!(look at his shoelaces, awwwwwwwwww)
My monkey friend, Ted!

I ate like nobody's business and i puked like nobody's business after that. Its a horrible habit.*shakes head*
Not feeling well now and won't be later,hahahaha.
Went to visit my cousin because she is officially one month old!Hurray!!(which means buffet/party,don't know why but it just works this way)
Going to my relative's place means getting negative remarks from them as well.
Baaaahhh, i didn't anticipate things like, "you've grown slimmer/taller/more mature!"I know they'll never(ultra capslock) compliment me on stuffs like that. Obviously, i kena super mean stuffs like..."you look so stupid, i don't believe you actually got into a jc, did you cheat during exams?" I've experienced that for the past 5 years so i'm easy with it. Still....its so annoying la! After i ate the buffet, i got so full so i kept on rubbing my tummy, praying that no fats will protrude.(I'M FULL, THATS WHY I DO THAT LA) Its a stupid/naive thinking, i know i know! Don't know why i got so paranoid, i went up and down 11floors several times, hoping to achieve something out of it.(no additional fats)Hahaha!
It was a boring session until.......... i got to carry the baby!(hahhaahaha!)Many BABY cousins turned up, can you imagine the scene with kids running all about and around you?(yes yes yes, thats it!great yeh?!)I was really hoping to meet my cousin, did not get to see him for many many years even though we had NO age gap!He did not turn up though.
Umm, mother has a collection of...what do you call that, spectacles for almost old-age people with near-sighted difficulty??


I think she's crazy!!
:):):):):):):):)Look at herrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr,angelic features.

:):):):)!!
I'm going bonkers, how i wish i know why.
Events just struck me suddenly & allowed me to apprehend what was going on around me.
It doesn't matter how many you've got, its actually all about how close you are.
Its pretty saddening to admit the fact that........... Its the awful truth, its the sad, sad truth. Who wants to be doleful and lead a miserable life? I don't want to lament and dwell on stuffs but once in a while, its hard to carry on life merrily. Especially when nobody understands the despair & dismay. To me, every part of it is fundamental&indispensable although it may be a peculiar reason. If only things were undistorted, if only i could be self-reliant, if only i could stay neutral...if only, if only and a million "if only"s.
Maybe everything is just a fraud??
Bring me to some rooftop to shout it out.
So insane, whats down(up) with me?
:):):):):):):):):):):):):):)(this should be the right approach instead!)
Make me laugh, hahahahhahaha!



Friday, March 21, 2008 10:14 PM



Mother: Wake up! wake up! Go to the bank with me!!
Ivan: Jiejie! Wake up, wake up!!
(Time: 8.00am)
She dragged me to the bank because she want to sign up on some investment stuffs.
I sat there and yawned because i was feeling dreary, the consultant was talking stuffs i know nuts about. We waited like idiots together with the other idiots for the bank to open at 9.00am. Mother and I laughed really hard when we saw the people standing at the entrance, saying, "good morning! good morning!" I tried to run away giving some excuses but my mother totally know me too well. Plus, i was super late for school, she held me on purpose!! lol.
I amused the consultant by not knowing how to sign my own signature. My mother amused him more by telling me to sign a couple of times on the paper (in case i forget my own signature,i can copy and sign next time). I anyhow crapped some signature on the spot, haaa!I asked stupid questions which made him dumbfounded. Hahahaha. I started swirling my chair,meddling with the bell, calculator and pens.(i was in jj attire, and i still played like a kid)Mother and I played with the POSB machine because we didn't know how to use.(the depositing money part) I detest liars who praise me on the most sensitive issue just because they want me to buy their consumer goods. Grrr!



10:26 AM

9:38 AM



Ah, home sweet home! I just came home after meeting Sophie, Kartik, Sharik& Brandon. I really miss them a lot. To be exact, it've been 2 years of not gathering! I've got my treat from Sharik! While waiting for Sophie to dismiss herself from work, i chatted with them outside ngeeanncity. Sharik's gonna take part in the Youth Olympic games, WOO! He was the one who taught me how to play pool and all and i'm gonna support him during 2010 for sure: ) As for Kartik, he kept on preaching, which was good in a way..makes me wonder about my dreams and all. Brandon...he just kept on yawning. We missed many buses to get to esplanade. Slacked around i guess before Sharik goes to Dubai for another competition.:( Sophie and i ran after a bus which we thought was ours but it was actually not. Really retarded, plus, we seriously wanted to pee, so we were making all kinds of funny/weird actions. I ran home after i got down the bus because i was afraid of robbers after what Sophie told me.





















































































Went out with family for a late lunch today because Dad refused to wake up. Gina, Ivan and I took turns to shout, "Daddy! Wake up!Wake up!" After we ate our lunch, we went to some field to pluck weeds. Really crazy thing to do but my mum heard that its good for health when you cook that particular kinda weed. We we plucking those weeds in the field, like idiots, really. Then Mother jumped and screamed. I don't know what happened but i joined her as well. She almost mistaken the snake as the weed. It was freaking scary. Father wanted to act brave and he took out a branch to lure the snake out. I was amazed/amused. Argh, why are we doing such stupid things together? I can't believe we admired birds that stood at our railings too.
