Movie Marathon!!
After my dental appointment at Tanjong Pagar, I immediately chionged to Orchard Cineleisure for my long-awaited movie marathon.
I waited quite long because there wasn't much time during the school term plus Kingdom of Heaven was almost ending its run in the theatres. Kingdom of Heaven stars Orlando Bloom as Balian, who was part of the Crusaders after his father died. He was quite a good fighter and a fast learner. However, the King of Jerusalem passed away not long after a "supposed war" and even though he tried to give Balian the country, Balian declined the offer. And Jerusalem was taken over by this sickening toad by the name of Ghee (not sure of spelling), which resulted in the death of many Jerusalem soldiers. Luckily, with intellectual Balian's intelligence, he managed to counter the Muslims' attacks for 3 days before they finally surrendered with terms that the people of Jerusalem get to be let go alive and safely transported away from the country. Which was very good!
After that, I chionged to buy tickets and went back to the theatres to watch My Boyfriend Is Type-B. It's a Korean film and I kinda missed the first 3 minutes of it. Gosh! About this girl, Ha-mi and guy Young-bin, who meet (with the help of fate) by wrong smses and the "clash of the phones", they eventually - very quickly - became a couple, and the traits of a Type-B soon shows up in Young-bin. With cousin, Chae-Young, a blood type matchmaking specialist, she links all the Bad things with B - Bitch, Bastard, Bimbo, Bum etc. Her cousin's expression and voice were also very humorous. And one part to laugh about was when Young-bin avenges for Ha-mi and pretends to be gay with her teacher and turns out one of his students was his actual gay-mate! There are many "very sweet" parts but one memorable one was when he got on the bus, chasing after Ha-mi and eventually, they made up!
Hmm... so don't be surprised if I asked for your blood type!!Labels: movies

What's Your High/Low Today?
Back to my gogglebox-mode yesterday. I was tuned to the tv whole day long, aside from my radio.
I caught this Malay programme, Cinta Bollywood 2, on Suria, and the story was quite on a climax. But, there were too many misunderstandings between the characters and the show ended there, which will definitely keep viewers tuning back.
Then I saw this movie - The Story of Us on TV3, about this couple who were married, on the verge of separation, and yet they gave their kids an impression that their married life is in bliss. The story trails them separately, and how they reminisce on their past together and the many different events that led to their situation now. After that, they learn to see things in each other's shoes and finally made up.
One aspect of the movie that I liked was that they asked each other "What's Your High/Low Today?" Such a question not only questions your mood throughout the day and who made it, isn't that a wonderful question?

Star Wars Craze
Went to watch Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith yesterday with Izzulwan and I must say it has changed my thoughts on many things.
Like when Anakin pledged himself to the sickening and ugly Sith Lord, I could feel the anguish in him. Yet, the main reason he joined the Dark Side was because he wanted to save Padme's live, besides wanting more power. Which is kind of saddening when Padme died of childbirth and the sickening and ugly Sith Lord lied to the then Darth Vader that he killed her in his anger, making him guilty of himself.
I guess things sometimes things don't go your way, and you may trek down the wrong path even though you know it's wrong. Like what Socrates said, "Improper conduct is a product of our ignorance rather than a symptom of weakness of the will", which kind of means that we know something is wrong yet we still do it. Think about it, how many times has such an incident happened to you?
Photog meeting today was a complete waste of time and beauty sleep, and there were many empty tummies while the photo judging session was going on. Not to mention, we wasted money and time just to travel to Safra Mount Faber because of an ignorant and disgusting President. That's why I gaved him that fed-up voice when I heard the bus driver telling us to alight from the bus. Later, we ate at HarbourFront hawker centre and headed home (how satisfying for the tummies!!).
Argh, another weekend with loads of holiday homework!!Labels: movies

WOW!
Yeah!! Our class got into Dragonboat finals!! So happy!! Time for more strenous practise during the holidays!! Can't wait...
Anyway, congrats to Zehua and his partner, Jay, for getting into the boys' canoe doubles. Also goes out to Yi-Tien & Yan Bing and Shi Zhen & Jaren for getting into the canoe finals. Of course I must congratulate them considering the unforgettable canoe disaster I encountered.
And, I'm so happy I managed to pass my Econs DRQ!! Although I was at the borderline, I think that's one of the 'push' factors that can motivate me to study. Meanwhile, got loads of Econs homework to do, so gotta chiong!!
Hope to see you guys during the June holidays!!

Hidden Identity?
As I wandered into the depths of my mind during my free time yesterday, I was thinking if Econs was like my social studies in the past. I was, like, failing almost every test and at most scraping through them during major exams. It's happening to Econs now, and I wonder when will this deja vu ever end? Hopefully, hard work pays off? Well, if I ever made time to work hard.
Then, I ponder to wonder if I had a guy's mind hidden in me. Most of my interests seem guy-like and some guys I know don't even like them. I guess I'm a very unique female individual.
And I was told recently, courtesy of my mom and my sis, that I talk LOUDLY in my sleep!! Gosh! I know I used to, or maybe I still do scold people in my sleep... but saying the word "Econs"?!?! Never~!!!

Weird
Didn't use the net during the long weekend and I have broken my record of staying away from the internet for 3 whole days!! Sometimes, technology isn't such a good thing so I have to abstain from it. Ironically, I was stuck to the radio throughout the 3 days, and I heard this from Power 98 - "A Peranakan saying that 'if you remember your dreams, it won't come true'" - food for thought, eh?
Had College Day on Saturday and I ought to slap myself for missing 'the Making of SWIII" on Channel 5 even though I reached home before 1830hrs. I tore the Today Section of the TV Guide and accidentally tore part of the SWIII poster. I kept the whole and torn portion as a reminder of my impulsiveness. Silly me.
School started - Arrgghh! Got back my Math Faculty Test marks, didn't expect to do well. Passed only by 4 marks and yet, I was the second highest. The highest being Jason, which means, only 2 people passed the test!! What a record.
PE - for the first time, we played Captain's Ball, but it wasn't a really fun game because the sun was scorching and we all played a "lagging" game. GP was much fun, too bad, the fun ends this Thursday because our "cute" tutor Mr Stanley Goh is leaving us!! So sad!! Hopefully the permanent tutor is much better.
3 more days till school closes. I wonder if it's a good or bad thing. Good - I can go out more often! Bad - Common Test is coming, and there's loads of revision to do!!!

Over - Exhausted
This week has been real hectic for me. The whole week has been exhaustive and tired. I hadly had time to sleep, let alone breathe.
Tuesday - The whole class of girls skipped PE because we really did not have any bit of energy left in us. Then had to discuss GPP with my group members and finally decided on Mr Vernon's idea on mozzies.
Wednesday - Had to chiong for Econs till past 12 midnight. Before that, I slept for 5 hours straight after I reached home, I was really too tired to flip through any Econs book. Then, I Had this not-that-big shock of getting back my Econs test paper. I failed again, that applies to my DRQ class assignment and other assignments. I felt really bad and down for a while and I thought I accepted my fate. I guess the coming June holidays would be filled with Econs, Econs and more Econs...
Thursday - Econs was hopeless. All that I studied didn't come out and I wrote crap in it. Rushed my Math revision and took many short naps in between. Couldn't really absorb much of the Trigo stuff and I slept past midnight again. Now, I have really big dark eye rings.
Friday - Tried to stuff more Math formula into my already-full brain. Math test was at least better than Econs'. But I won't pass that well though, cos I couldn't prove those induction questions and lots more. Physics test also fail. Thinking of it, my future is becoming vague. Went back Damai to collect O level certificate and we met Qifan, Wan Yee and Joel!! So long didn't see them and I really missed them. Took neoprints later and went home.
Guess I can't really sleep till the late afternoon tomorrow cos I have to attend College Day!! Darn!! What can you do when you've got a Civics Tutor like Mr Liew???

Sea Carnival !
Went for DB practice on Sunday and I must say our coordination just got better.
Physics SPA Practical today and I totally screwed it up. I FORGOT to use those stabilizing weights given. FREAK!! Plus, the teachers were all swarming around me, and I was so tensed my arms were trembling!! SHIT!!
Had lunch at Pasta Mania then proceeded to Kallang for the J1's Sea Carnival. Was in Heats 2 for DB and we got FIRST!! That was exhilarating!! I heard we led by one and half boat!! But overall, we got 2nd cos another class was faster by 2 seconds. Ganbatte 05S24!!
* this is the most embarrassing part * Slack for awhile and did the doubles canoe with Yin Chieh. Starting was so nice and straight, then, we started to drift to the left and we tried with all our might to tilt the canoe right but no avail, until many tries later. All was going fine until we hit the other side of the shore, instead of back-rowing or rowing more on one side, we pushed ourselves with the paddle from the sand. Then after 3 seconds of straight movements, we drifted to the left again. It was really hopeless. In the end, after much struggle, the sea sports personnel in the other canoe pushed us back to shore with his canoe. That was super embarrassing and we even had problems pushing the canoe back into place. The sea sports personnel there gave up on us and pushed it herself.
We're that bad right? Funny, the other time I canoe, it wasn't this weird. I think I better stay away from any form of sea sports except dragonboat... that's the safest.

Mr Liew - a different kind of IDOL
This morning's Physics tutorial was one of the most shocking exposure of Mr Liew, my civics tutor.
We were all talking about physics one moment, and the next, he was telling us how he meditated under the same tree that Buddha attained Enlightenment. He said he went backpacking and followed the path of Enlightenment of Buddha but... he didn't become Buddha. (-_-)'''
That was the first spurt of outrageous laughter.
Next, he told us he was going backpacking in Northern Europe in the coming June holidays to a place where people are ALL found NAKED. Then he started talking about how he would look weird with clothes on, and therefore, he would do what the masses would do -- be naked. (-_-)'''
That was the second spurt of outrageous laughter.
Finally, he expressed yearn to visit Brazil and he gave live demonstration of booty shaking, TWICE! (-_-)'''
That was extremely hilarious!! Friday the 13th must have done something to him. He's so HIGH!
Was 35 minutes late for Math mermaid lecture because I went to observe people donate blood. Didn't miss much though, when I reached there, they just started explaining the first example. Stayed back after school to put up flags for college day, and went to walk-walk for a while before heading home to have a good nap.
Sea Carnival this coming Monday @ 1430hrs @ Kallang Basin. Supporters are welcome. Haha, as if I have supporters... anyway, it's gonna be a long weekend with kayaking and dragonboat training this Sunday. I must REST WELL!Labels: school

We All Live In A Crazy World
This morning's SPE created a frenzy among the girls as a menacing flying cockroach came to terrorized the girls.
PW wasn't any better when I found out my group members are Shi Zhen, Vernon, Meng Wee and Jason. What's worst is that even though our PI ideas were accepted, it didn't really pass the feasibility check. So now, we're all walking on a very thin piece of ice because we're supposed to hand up the first draft of the GPP next week!!
Stayed back after school to finish the Econs student initiated project thing with Yin Chieh and Shi Zhen. And I added "Orange Bag" to my friendster contact on impulse. Hopefully he adds me because Yin Chieh would be so happy.
Sianz, tomorrow is another long day with FOUR physics periods. Which means I have to see Mr Liew's face for like 200 minutes because I have to put up some silly flags for college day. Must brace myself up!!Labels: friends, school

Army Blues
Had this S Cube talk today and was treated to this view of former-TPJCian-now-2nd LT guy. He's quite cute and WOW! Haha, a little bit desperate here.
Anyway, during the talk, I was thinking what would happen if the guys went for NS for 2 years... How TERRIBLE!! Not only will most of my guy friends be far and away, it's gonna be so lonely without any guys to look at! Although there are younger and older guys, but I mean those that are closest to you are those of your same age, right? It's so SADDENING.
Frankly, I think guys are usually very 'on'. You can tell them anything and they will give their "frankest" comments. Sometimes, they are better than girls in a sense that they seldom have mood swings. Not trying to put girls down (why would I when I'm one?!), so if you're a girl reading this and you agree with me to a certain extent - hi-5!
Well, I'm kind of a despo girl. That's why I didn't want to go to a girls' school because I'll have no motivation!! Anyway, I have to end blogging now, before I go out of point!! Haha, ciao people.

FREAKED!
Warning: The following is not suitable for those who dislikes cussing.
Just last night, after much struggle to study Physics just before I fell asleep, I had this very foul thinking in my head - Physics is a f*****-up subject.
After waking up at bloodily early 5am in the morning to revise Physics, I thought I still had some hope... until I did the paper. It was really a freakin' hard paper!!
Did 2.4km run during PE, and I think I did fairly well by not stopping. Clocked 15:58 minutes, which is terrible. Hopefully I'll do better the next time. Also, somebody does not look like Rooney walking around playing soccer. Yucks.
Econs was a HORROR. I repeat H-O-R-R-O-R. I completely couldn't grasp any of those concepts of market structure.
Luckily GP was better, was treated to a beautiful sight of pink paper cranes in the facility room in the library. And somebody got all panicky about a bottle, and I happened to know somebody's friend. *Gasps in shock*
Attended the Chinese opera thingy with PL and it was definitely a different experience. Got to go now, before that, an appeal or maybe two - who wants to watch Star Wars Episode III with me? and when do you guys wanna collect your 'O' level certs? Pls inform me!!

Brain Attack
Sunday was Mother's Day and the Mother's Day lunch was really delicious... Yet, the weekend was spoilt because there was econs homework to do, and I had to study for the upcoming Physics test. Blahx.
This morning was so damn tiring. Chinese lesson was boring. GP lesson was barely there. The break was boring too, none of the cute guys were there. Sigh. Had my Physics Practical later and was told that our SPA trial was next Monday, which happens to be the day of the Sea Carnival!! Imagine training for dragonboat on Sunday and cramming those SPA skills into your head!! Gosh!! And Vernon said I went canoeing with my bf (Izzulwan) on Saturday? PLEASE!!
Stayed back at the library after school with Yoke Yee to study for the blasted Physics test tomorrow. Man, it was full of crap. Forces and Kinematics. Why do we need to know those blasted formulas to calculate projectile motion when I kick a football or find the velocity of a stone when it's being thrown upwards?!?!
After Yoke Yee left, Joseph came shortly after. Although Physics was still quite productive for the first hour or so, with some questions asked here and there, understanding of some idiotic logic behind the physics principle, the hour after went past with lots of crap-talking. Then we started noticing those poor subjects in the library, talk bad about people and giving people names; since when did I do such stuff, must have been in contact with bad company... haha... Met Vann and PL later and went home.
Hopefully after this blog, I will guai guai walk back to the table to study my Physics, which I think is highly unlikely. Maybe I'll start at 2000hrs, after a nice break, after all, you can't absorb much after you've reached your saturation point, right?

Canoeing
We Crossed This Bridge!
Originally uploaded by KJ.eio.
Went for canoeing with Izzulwan and Joseph's class today. Felt a little extra at first but his classmates were all very approachable and friendly, and we sorta click quite well.
We had to wait to get the canoe, and I'm so glad I was not canoeing with Joseph, because he was the most capsize-worthy. I kinda feel a little bad for Izzulwan, he was canoeing for the first time and he had to capsize with Joseph TWICE.
Left with Izzulwan after taking some photos at the Kallang Stadium. Went for a big round around the Kallang River and I think that compensated for the jog we missed this evening.
Had lunch at Mac's and we kinda talked about some serious personal stuff that I'm quite sure I've never told anyone before. So Izzulwan, please keep whatever stuff you heard a secret please, cos I'm gonna be in so deep shit if anybody else gets wind of it.
Met Joseph and his classmates at the MRT coincidentally and if bluffing people to believe that Izzulwan and I are bf/gf can earn me money, I don't even need a wishlist anymore.
Got home without knowing I had a bit of sunburn, until my mom gave me 3 words when I got in the house - "You are sick." Cos she said canoeing in such hot weather is bad for my skin etc, and said I was SICK to come home with red cheeks and nose.
Feel a bit lost now. Cos sometimes when I think about what to say when I meet you, they don't come out when I see you. I guess there's never gonna be a chance for those words to come out.

TPJC Sports Day
Had photography duties this morning during the Sports Day and I had my first experience with the manual cameras. The seniors were quite nice, always giving us tips on what kind of aperture values to use etc., since me and my friend were greenhorns.
We had our 12x100m race, although we tried our best, we got 2nd last. I guess the outcome isn't important, but the process. There was really a feast for the eyes during sports day and having a camera around beats everything else. There was "mei tui", "orange bag", "pinocchio", "converse bag carriers" and many more interesting people.
Went home and took a really nice long nap, which was deprived of for the past few weeks. Then, I received this email from Junhao about tips and tricks to take photos. Thanks! Hopefully, I will improve on my skills in time to come.

Words
The Transformation Is Complete.
Tagline for SWIII: Revenge of the Sith
PL's "Affair" in Class
While attending Photography CCA today, PL told me about this incident in the class which brought back "fond" memories of me during secondary one. It starts with normal friendship, nothing else, yet some bloody bitch had to open her *bleeping* big mouth and had to spoil the ordinary friendship my friend and I shared. It became awkward, even frustrating and sad at times, as just when a new friendship is about to bloom, some dog shit had to thrown on top of it. I only regained that friendship one year later with the help of some friends. See how pathetic I was? And that dog shit simply refers to that idiot, who's now wallowing in her own pool of shit.
Meanings of Words
It's funny how words can be interpreted in so many ways. Take me for example, if I misinterpreted my friend's SMS, it might seem that my friend had just confessed to me. Eeeew. So I had better type my words properly, and think in my head many times before some information given to me is misinterpreted again. Phew.
Photography
I managed to take some pictures yesterday and today, and will probably publish them in my blog when I have the time to upload them to the computer. I don't think they're anything wonderful, but just a little small effort here from me. So when I publish them, anyone can give their comments, especially Junhao and Stefanie, who are like the professionals. Geex...

my mind is a BLANK
After Saturday's jog, it was definitely an achievement. It's been, like, 3 years since I jogged round the reservoir without stopping? Well, I guessed peer pressure worked for both Tuty and me. Both of us saw each other running and continued to do so until the finishing line. It was definitely a good one.
Went for dragonboat training on Sunday. This time, I was given quite a shock when I found out I was the only girl going, luckily Su Yuan and Qiyin came about 40 minutes later. Our GP teacher, Mr Stanley Goh, joined us as well, and he's really good at coxing and rowing. We managed to dig some personal stuff from him as well... funny how come he's so willing to share such personal stuff with us?? Went for a bath at Kallang Stadium and I was seriously thinking if I'm a little too casual over myself... Lunch at Mac's was quite fun, lots of laughs and chats, and Su Yuan helped the MacGirl pick up a $50 dollar note! Imagine the turmoil that MacGirl would have to go through if the amount of money collected didn't tally... and we got a McDonald notebook FREE!
Got home later and I was already starting to chiong my homework, with a little help from Joseph cos my "teacher like mermaid"(?!?!), and his teacher had gone through the questions much faster. I actually stayed awake till 1am and I was still quite awake when I decided to go to sleep... a result of having too much enthusiasm?
Monday was a very boring day. I was stuck at home, without any internet access, and it was econs and physics tutorial every hour!! *puke!!*
Today wasn't any better, PE was the army-style jumping again, I ended up with jelly legs. Econs - I received a compliment/comment/feedback about my work, GOD, I felt so damn depressed then. GP was a little more interesting, we read this article about Female Genital Mutilation, a completely gross and painful ritual held in Uganda, Africa. Went to Library with Yin Chieh to find PW information, and we had fun calling someone "Zehua" and about his idea... Met Natasha at the Library, she was studying for her mid-years!! Having study leave, she said.
Got home and Syafiq saw my msn nick and comforted and encouraged me, not to be so disappointed about my econs. Hopefully.
