Hello to fellow homo sapiens.

School today was basically spending time in the hall watching people play badminton. Was walking here and there with Jennifer and commenting on people and their skills. HAHA.

Funny. I never formally talked to her before and today we walked around together so naturally. It's weird but rather well, natural at the same time. AH WHAT AM I TALKING ABOUT.

Never mind. Ignore me.

After school, Ming, Celest, Zhi Wei, Donald, Fis and I went to KFC to eat and talk about 95% soccer and 2% Korean people and 3% of other things. Gosh the guys and Celest really can talk about soccer for the entire day and I caught 0% of all its essence other than finding some names familiar. Hah.

I feel so dead blogging now because there's no one thing I can type and rant about. That's sad. And now, even when I rant, it has to be constructive ranting cause you never know which homo sapien is going to come across this and condemn it and make a huge spectacle of it. AYE.

AYE I'm going to miss 06A02. We're such a crazy class with crazy homo sapiens that we can cheer and play badminton at the same time, at the expanse of throwing our faces down the drain when a group of J2s paraded in slowly. You see, WE ROCK, YOU STONE (:

BYE. I'm getting immensely bored I need to humour myself with stories!

EDIT: 06A02!!!

I'm going to upload the CLASS VIDEO that I made (consisting of pictures and more pictures) into my Clubbox. Then I won't have to painstakingly send through MSN. Ask me for the link ok. Then at the same time I can teach you how to use it cause it was darn confusing for me the first time I did it. (:

BEFORE:
I realised that the post I wrote just now was super boring and reading it myself, I was bored. Thus, you're seeing this right now. I'm changing it. See, change is the only constant in life. How true.

Anyway, yours truly was a very bored person in school today. I'm feeling better now, now that I have a show to watch later on! EXCITED!

I have to do my GP essay too. Aye. Poor Clement has to go to the museum alone cause apparently no one else in his class is going to do homework but him. This crazy guy wore an RGS Netball shirt to school today. -_-. I really have nothing to say. He's just a little nuts.

I see the auntie-cum-uncle EVERYDAY. There is not one day when I do not see the auntie-cum-uncle. AYE. Never mind. Few would know who I'm talking about.

Jian Ming was very entertaining and cute today. GOSH LOOK AT HIM DANCE AND YOU'D LAUGH UNTIL YOU CRY. Like I did, obviously. It is super hilarious. His actions are all very boyish and exaggerated. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. So funny!

BYE! I'm experimenting with my dear CLUBBOX.

It's my birthday today! Aye I forgot how to sing the birthday song in Korean. -_-.

The first person to wish me was... MARCUS. I meant, Teddy. Yeah. And his message went like that, "Hey isabelle! Happy bdae in less than an hr's time!..." I asked him why 'less than an hour's time' and he told me that he couldn't take it any longer. Had to sleep. BWAHAHA. Funny teddy.

Anyway, I want to thank all the wonderful people who remembered and messaged me. I didn't reply all of you cause you know, it costs money. But still, thank you for bothering and sending me a greeting or a present or card. It's really nice to know that your birthday is remembered by the people around you (:

Thank you, thank you to:
Vania, Germaine, Shu Li, Lydia, Xin Ying, Marcus, Ah Nae, Partner, Sheryl, Angie, Tye Choon, Si Ying, Raseena, Mok Mok, Bernice, Mei Ting, Ting Ting, Melinda, Amanda, Piao Piao & Hafizah! :D

I was really surprised cause Hafizah's like my primary school friend and she remembered my birthday when I don't even have her number in my phone!

Aww. And I found this really cute. My mum bought me Kelly's CD for my birthday. When I asked her why that and not Lin Jun Jie's album, her reply was, "Then I can also listen."

HAHA. Never mind. Got ang-pows from my dad and my grandparents (:

ANYWAY, was at the cafe for my 1 and 1/2 hour break. I think Shu Li, Xin Ying & Germaine bought me a slice of cake and commanded me to eat it. HAHA. Cute eh these people.

Well, the funny part was when Kelvin came and joined us cause he owned Germaine a treat. As to the origins of the pact I have no idea and neither have they.

You know what. He's 181 and he got A1s for ALL HIS SCIENCES AND MATHS.

Which means, A1 for Physics, A1 for Chemistry and A1 for Biology, and of course A Maths & E Maths (but that's common). Mad or what.

That's not the point though. He applied for the overseas attachment thing, but, he put KOREA as his THIRD CHOICE!!! Gah I feel like strangling him.

Aye. He made me laugh a lot. And so did Germaine and I didn't really want to leave for Maths lecture but I had to. And that stupid guy who 'ding dong's me didn't go. And I have no idea how to use the GC to do a matrix question.

When I get that calculator, I'm going to read the manual like a bed-time story book. WOW SO FUN.

Oh yah during Geography lecture today Harrison kept eating the M&Ms I bought. And the stupid guy who 'ding dong's me kept MY M&Ms captive. GRRR. Stupid pig.

And yah, I didn't get his 'ding dong' until like this morning. Argh.

OH YES. I WANT TO BUY THE GAME CALLED TABOO. It's hilariously fun! :D

Hello earthlings.

I was in rather high hopes this morning when I heard something to do with Korea. Oh well, as you can tell from my near-monotonous tone that my hopes have like, been crushed.

WHY OH WHY? Why must the overseas attachment programme be for people in the science stream? Is the arts stream in Singapore THAT insignificant?! Maybe it's because lesser people take interest in the arts, but still... I'm disappointed.

I WANT TO GO KOREA OKAY!!! :(

Anyway, the stupid criteria states that:
1) You have to get an A1 for E Maths
2) An A1 for A Maths
3) A1s for TWO PURE SCIENCE SUBJECTS
(This is the reason for my not signing-up ; I don't fit the bill!)
4) Distinction for English
5) Distinction for One Humanities subject
6) Distinction for One other subject.

My dear, I take combined science. Physics + Chemistry.

And this entire attachment is science-based. But that's not the point. The point is, THEY ARE GOING TO KOREA!!!

Well, the teacher told us to take the form anyway. So I took, and now, the ten pieces of paper are being filed under "Rough Paper" in my file. So useful.

By the way have I ever said that I love my tuition teacher?

I used to ABHOR/DETEST/LOATHE Mathematics. Every piece of Maths homework was like a challenge to me. I mean A Maths. Certain E Maths topics were a chore to me, but A Maths made my secondary three days horrible.

I think in my two years taking A Maths, the number of times I've passed are like 5 or less. It was so common for me to fail A Maths I got immuned to it.

There were times when I cried over not being able to solve the questions. Those were the days when I felt like shit when I looked at all the other confident faces of my classmates. There was once in secondary 3 or 4 I couldn't remember when. Mr Lee came to invigilate our A Maths class test.

The first question was about singular matrix. My entire mind BLANKED OUT when I saw the word 'singular'. I panicked like a nervous wreck and it didn't help when my partner was furiously writing her answers. I actually broke out in cold sweat and turned away, not wanting to look at her.

I spent the half hour staring at the paper and not getting anything back in return. When Mr Lee announced the end of the test, my foolscap had nothing but question numbers and one line of answers. Yeah I know, I'm pro.

When the results came back, guess how much I got.

My partner scored the highest in class ; 18/25.

And I'm VERY sure that I scored the lowest in class. I mean, who can beat the perfect single digit of 1/25?

Yes, ONE PATHETIC MARK WAS MY PATHETIC SCORE. HOW PATHETIC.

Therefore, I had a very natural phobia of Additional Mathematics. It was, however, through my mother's determination to get me a tutor that I started NOT to fail.

I was under her wings just before mid-years. I didn't fail my mid-years ; miraculously (:

And she re-taught me, gave me tips, and there were some lessons when all we talked about were our personal lives and about the korean and taiwan entertainment scene. My tuition on friday starts at 7 and ends at 8.30 PM. But there were times when we talked till 9.45 PM and my dad would get real pissed off.

We communicate very well, and thus, I actually ENJOY tuition. She gives me tons of homework but I realise that practice really makes perfect. A Maths questions are all in the same certain style. Once you grasp it, you won't lose hold of it unless you are rusty at that particular skill.

I told her I screwed my Prelims up. I really did, passing by 1 mark. She was rather disappointed about it and of course I was too. My relative velocity question could have been salvaged if I had been more careful to check my diagram with my workings! ARGH. She actually told me this, "When I ask you about the concepts, you can answer my questions. But then why during exams your grades like that?"

I was quite sad over it, seriously.

ARGH talking about this makes me miss tuition. Many people probably hate tuition, but I enjoy mine! Maybe it's because she's a sucker for Korean dramas like me (: But we really CAN talk. We talked for 3 hours non-stop and we never touched Maths. HAHA. So much for paying tuition fees.

Frankly I think Crescent's Maths standards are sky-high.

If you're like on the verge on dropping A Maths, DON'T. It's easier to score with Maths than with Humanities so there's no harm giving it your best shot for A Maths. Who knows, you could achieve a grade far above your expectations.

I once thought that getting an A1 for A Maths was some unreachable goal. It isn't!

OH YES. If you need a maths tutor, my tuition teacher is a very good and reliable one (: Ask me okay! :D

Bye earthlings!

Friday, February 17, 2006.

By the way, I think 4's cute. And if you want to do this too, HERE's the link.

{ }

I think I've gone mad.

You know what, for a seldom movie-goer like me, I've watched many films in cinemas for the past 1 and a 1/2 months.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME.

No wonder I'm so broke nowadays.

I think the movies I've watched so far are:
The Chronicles Of Narnia
Fearless
I Not Stupid Too
Marrying The Mafia II
Season Of Love

That's like an average of ONE movie in 9.4 days. My average used to be like 3 months or something. Oh well, even though much of my money has been invested, it was worth it!

Narnia was an absolutely great show (: Fearless was good, but a little too gory. Jet Li can fight, face it. I Not Stupid Too was the best best ever which made me cry and laugh like shit simultaneously. It's tiring to watch a show like that but you gain so much from it. I LIKE! Should go buy its DVD so that whenever you feel like letting out your tears, watch it and cry. :D As I've already said, MTM II was darn hilarious but rather sick, and now, let's talk about Season Of Love.

Season Of Love is for sadists.

I watched it with Jo-Hsuan. It's a movie centered around 4 groups of people. One group is a pair of lovers, one acquaintances who met at some funworld, another a pair of on-the-verge-of-breaking-up lovers, and lastly, mother and son. (Oh yes the little boy is absolutely adorable!)

AYE. If I were to narrate the story here I'd leave too many loopholes and make the entire story sound dumb. So I shan't.

BUT IT'S REALLY REALLY SADISTIC. I've sort of gotten used to the style Korean directors use. When you watch their movie, their style is deeply distinguishabe, other than the fact that the film is korean. I am unable to pinpoint what it is exactly, but really, they have a certain style while Chinese and Western directors like to spell most things clear for viewers.

Take, for example, April Snow. It's all focused on body language and I seriously have no idea why the scenes just from here to there. Sometimes the link isn't strong, and it's very hard to understand.

Also, Koreans concentrate a lot on inferrence and the actors and actresses get their money for showcasing their emotions and endless tears. When they cry they do it ruddily well and prettily. I'M DEAD SERIOUS. When Cha Tae-Hyun cried in the movie, I was there going, "Ah! So handsome!"

They really cry very nicely. People like Lee Dong Gun (!!!), Song Seung Hun, Rain. AHH AHH AHH. Crying is not just for females. They loo SUPER MANLY when they cry okay! (: (: (:

I like to watch them get angry too! They open their mouths really wide and they scold really really loudly irregardless of where they are. Their mouth twists up in a weird way and they always go, "Aahh-ji-shi". Don't ask me what that means, but that's what I think I always hear.

I don't know why Koreans attract me, they just DO. (:

OH YES. I just watched X-Man partner burned for me. Fortunately, there were chinese subtitles and OH YEA MAN! I FEEL GOOD! I finally know what they're saying. And GUESS WHAT!

FANY LOOKED SO GOOD! (I like it when he smiles ; all that charisma. His complexion is good too) BRIAN TOO! HE DANCES VERY VERY WELL!

AND FANY'S THE X-MAN!!! (:
(Right I know no one knows what I'm talking about but heck. It makes me happy!)

I'm elated and euphoric! BYE!

Thursday, February 16, 2006.

This is the hall in which I sat for my prelims and 'O' levels. The air-conditioned hall which was a part of four years of my life. (:















THE AIR-CONDITIONED HALL IN CRESCENT! <3

Gosh I've been talking about Crescent forever. Like all my previous posts were centered around Crescent! :D

Anyway let's talk about the scholarship which I almost didn't apply for. All thanks to Donald who scared me. And I almost didn't want to apply for it cause I thought I had to be in the Humanities Programme. Mine's the Pre-U Scholarship! Apparently they're different.

Anyway Mr Chng's my life-saver. I was feeling rather scared when I had to dial some ext. number to find the teacher-in-charge. No one picked up the phone then I decided to like, dump it into her pigeon hole.

THEN I SAW MR CHNG.

And of course, I asked him for help. And he did! He brought me into the H.O.D area and then referred me to this lady teacher. Then the teacher was asking me, "What's your L1R6? Is it 8?"

Then I was like, "Huh? L1R6? I thought L1R5?"

Then she went to count mine, inclusive of chinese. She went, "2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8!"

"Very good! You are eligible!"

I was a little confused. Turned out that I wasn't detailed enough in reading the instructions. It stated that you had to get 8 points or below for English + HMT/MT + 5 relevant subjects. Fortunately, I had all A1s except English and Biology. SO I GOT MY 8.

If not, dear scholarship, farewell.

$750, sayonara.

However, the thing is, there's going to be an interview. GOODNESS.

I'm so going to get tongue-tied. And people keep asking me for study tips.

Let me be downright straightforward and honest with you. I spend more time on my computer than I do studying. I never study until like a week or two before major exams and a day or two before class tests. I seriously don't know how I got myself such grades.

And please, I have a name. Don't call me _-pointer.

Today during Geog lecture my classmates sabotaged me. VERY GOOD. The lecturer was like, "Now let me ask a female."

They went, "Isabelle!"

"_-pointer eh!"

GOSH ANNOYING PEOPLE. And I didn't know the answer to his question. Ah. Physical geog has quite a load of rubbish. Doesn't really interest me. But I understood maths today! :D

Another thing I find annoying is that when people get to know my results and ask me where I intend to go, and I say, "Stay in JJ."

They over-react and go, "WHY? You can go better JCs why not? Like NJ? AC?"

How many times have I said NJ's a boring school (from what I heard) with 2 pathetic arts classes, and that I do not think I'd be able to fit into AC's culture, and that SA's too ruddily far and HC is just a complete NO-NO.

The next person who asks me why I'm staying I'm going to SCREAM into your face.

I LIKE JJ. IT'S NEARBY AND CONVENIENT. I DO NOT REALLY FUNCTION UNDER STRESS. I KNOW WHAT I WANT. HAPPY?!

There, good. Done!

I'm a really slack person. The only thing I really do is homework. I hand in all my assignments on time (at least, I try my very best to). Homework is really really essential. This is because when you do, you practice, and you get to apply what you learn. Thus, reading and memorising alone is not enough. I'm one of those who would actually do homework, and more often than not, classmates would request for my work to refer to. Well, I don't really like doing that cause it defeats the purpose behind giving homework. But what can I do, I'm very afraid of confronting teachers and experiencing any kind of wrath they'd hold, thus, I steer clear of teachers. Never had I once voluntarily went for any consultations. NEVER. It's either someone pulled me or something.

I hate ONE-TO-ONE with teachers. They intimidate me. :(

And obviously, I do not like to study. I like to study for Chinese, Lit and Social Studies though! SS because Miss Ting makes everything so fun, Chinese because it's my favourite subject and lit because there's nothing really much to do but reading (:

LALALA. Right I better stop here. TATA! (See, I DO love typing.)

"Our local students come from a wide range of secondary schools including top schools such as Crescent Girls', Fairfield Methodist, Nan Hua, River Valley High, Commonwealth and Swiss Cottage." - Taken from the JJC website.

See, Crescent is not a neighbourhood school (:

Thank you Xi Ling! For informing me of this because before that, I felt much injustice. We're in Band One and I'm dang proud of my alma mater. So what if we can be a little uncouth, unruly, and loud? We're a far cry from the demure girls in mixed schools, but you got to give us some time and space to adjust right? And with our personality and character crafted inside for the past four years, it's impossible to rid of it like, so soon.

One thing too, we can never sit properly.

At least, I can't.

They say we think weird, do weird, talk weird, laugh weird. Laugh weird meaning laughing at things others don't find funny or get the joke about. I'm sorry, girls' school humour (:

Today, someone commented that I look as though I'm from SCGS. Haha NO. SCGS. This is correct :D

In case you were wondering what we do in girls' schools, we are actually pretty normal.

It's not weird to us when we say the words 'bra' and 'pad' aloud. It also isn't weird when we start to compare the colour of our bras. HA.

And many people like to ask this question, "Are there lesbians in your school?"

Please don't be an idiot to think that once you enter a girls' school, you'd become one. Even amongst girls we'd look out for the prettier ones. And sometimes it's not just pretty, but athletic, cute and ladida. Yes, sometimes there is attraction, but it becomes friendly love. Get it? Although there might be a small percentage of these people, you needn't care about them. Just leave them to be and lead your own life. You can be equally happy.

PLEASE PLEASE. Entering a girls' school is NOT equivalent to sending yourself on a path of lesbianism. Open your eyes, yah.

I mean, if you're in a girls' school for 4 years of your life, won't you change a little? And all you see are girls, girls, girls. You don't know, but being in a girls' school is one of the best things.

You are free of inhibitions, and there's nothing to be embarrassed about.

I don't think I should go into such explicit details, but yeah, it isn't weird when we like take our skirts out while walking someplace, it isn't weird when we're trying to tuck our blouses in as we walk in the hallways, and neither is it weird when we change in class.

Yesterday, Yin Zhen, Germ, Shu Li, Fis & I were playing badminton. I was wearing my uniform and school shorts. Playing with your skirt on is an annoying hazard, so I decided to take it off.

AND ALMOST EVERYONE WENT, "Isabelle, what are you wearing?" -_-???!!!

Like, hello?! Does the school blouse together with PE shorts look THAT offensive/weird? Yin Zhen and I found it perfectly normal. Weird mindsets these people have. Back then in Crescent we parade around in our blouses and PE shorts after changing in the toilet and wear our skirts only when we walk back to class. I don't get what's so wrong. Maybe they see it as weird, but it's already something so common to us that we are immune to whatever weird notions that may arise when you pair the school blouse & the PE shorts.

Anyway, if you ever want to judge, please do so individually. The school might have certain cultures, but a person is individual. It's not fair to base judgements on where the person might have come from or whatever. You base it on how you see the person behave and all. Not absentmindedly and by stereotyping.

Sometimes I need to remind myself of that too.

Well, I never regretted going to Crescent, and I love Crescent a lot a lot. The building, the reputation, the students, and the teachers. It would always feel like home to me.

I had initially thought that my batch was a noisy, playful and mischievous batch who would pull down the school's standards, comparing us to our seniors. However, I was really wrong. When Mrs Lee when showing us the vast improvements in % distinctions for each subject, I felt this strong love for my secondary 4 peers.

I think this is the beauty of Crescent.

You might get 20 + or 19, 18, 17 for the prelims. But when 'O' Levels come, you won't be shortchanged. Most of my friends had scores of 10, 11, 12. And they were the ones who used to have problems, those who struggled with subjects that they didn't take a fancy to.

And I'm really glad that I had wonderful teachers who would push us and urge us to do our best. Even though they might be sick of doing the same things, going through the same lessons, teaching the same things year after year, they do not show it, and never hesitate to 'book' us during the holidays to come back for more and more and even more.

It's easy to feel demoralised studying, especially when you barely scrape through your A-Maths test and the china scholars have it easy and breeze through, getting sky high scores of 90. Even looking at them stresses you out. They read Jeffrer Archer books, congregate in the library and study and study and study.

Looking at them then, I felt like a failure. They studied way long before the Prelims, and while I told myself I had to start 75 days before, then 60, then 50, then 45, 30, 20, 18. I started 12 days before, I think.

Still, although we didn't really do very well, they moderated our results and gave us hope. This hope remained true, right up to this very moment. Aye, what can I say, sarang hae Crescent!

By the way, you ought to congratulate yourself if you managed to get to this sentence. I am a little long-winded, I know.

OH YES. I caught Marrying The Mafia II.

IT WAS HILARIOUS.

I was laughing hard enough by myself and with Kenneth sitting beside me, it didn't help! He made me laugh more because his laughter is so contagious! It was his first watching a Korean movie, and he didn't regret it!

See, I have good taste!

KOREA KOREA KOREA!
(The Southern part of it, mainly) :D

Bye! I'm going to read my two TIME magazines! Have to improve on my very limited vocabulary and GP! (:

{ }

Friday, February 10, 2006.

HELLO! I'm a happy person. Didn't regret my choice to go to school today, and I was relieved that I brought my camera along with me :D

Although only 11 good people turned up, we had major fun - taking photos :D

And I'm thankful for my results (:

Crescent improved a lot! I thought that my batch isn't very good, but apparently, we've done the school proud! We have almost 6/7 people scoring 9 A1s! The press are interviewing them! Woohoo! I love Crescent! :D

If you have any interest in viewing the photos, they are HERE (:

Oh yes. My father insisted that we go out to celebrate for my results and the selling of our house. And so we went. But let me tell you something. NEVER GO TO SWENSEN'S, and try finishing an entire glass of ice-cream by yourself. I ordered Swensen's Ice Blended so it wasn't that bad. But the ice cream there is DARN sweet. I don't think I'm ever stepping in again soon.

Thursday, February 09, 2006.

My class loves badminton. But it's alright, I love my class. (: Tomorrow might be our last day together and the me who initially wanted NOT to go to school, am going.

We took a class photo during GP today (: Woo!

The wonderful beings from 06A02:

Abigail, Benjamin, Celestine, Chee Png, Crystal, Donald, Germaine, Harrison, Hui Jun, ME, Ji-Shen, Jian Ming, Kui Noi, Li Ying, Marcus, Mathani, Matin, Nicholas, Sakinah, Sarah, Shu Li, Soon Kheng, Suan Wee, Viknesh, Wan Qi, Xin Yi, Xin Ying, Yin Zhen, Yvette, Zhi Wei.

WHEE!

Seriously, in the midst of playing badminton, I had totally forgotten that results are coming out tomorrow. And, the finality of that has yet to reach me. HAH.

{ }

Tuesday, February 07, 2006.

Yes results are going to be out on friday. Time really flies. It seemed just like yesterday when it was almost the end of the 'O' Levels and a group of us flocked to catch Harry on big screen. I was thinking to myself last year when my seniors got their results that, "It's going to be my turn next year!" And now, it's drawing REAL near.

I don't feel anything as of yet, but I'm sure the jitters would come soon.

LALALA.

Harrison tried to teach me, Abby and Germ some wave thing but it isn't easy to make it look polished and professional. By the way, Harrison dances like a pro. Something like how Usher dances, and I believe he can reach Usher's standards with professional training (: Being alone here with your family all the way in Nigeria is hard, and I admire the way he presents himself. Always smiling, cheerful, and eating ice-cream. Haha :D

And Abby was so annoying today. SHE TRICKED ME! I might be easy to trick but she was so mean. RAH.

Wait I don't think I can type anymore.

I need to shit.

Shu Li & Germ, do you guys feel like strangling me?

BWAHAHA.

Hoho I tell you I have NO LIFE. I spent my past two days online doing my geography project. Doing the entire powerpoint and editing the report. I have no life, no life, no life.

School ended at 1 pm and I came home straight to do MY GEOGRAPHY PROJECT!

Anyway SHARON I read your blog. Pretty skin. And since my name is there, and I have no life and nothing better to do after wrapping Janice's present in an envelope ready for the postman, I shall do the what-do-you-call-this? Yeah. Whatever-it-is-called.

WHATEVER-IT-IS-CALLED
A) Post 5 random or weird things about yourself.
B) At the end,write the names of the 5 people whom you want to do this quiz.

PART A
1) The first weird thing about myself is that I am an UTTER PERFECTIONIST. There are many many people around me like Yue Qi whose things are scattered all around as though Twister hits them all-year round. If I live with people like that I'd go ballistic in a matter of time. I'm happy to say that my parents are neat people, my brother is a rather neat person and my sister is on a passable mark, much better than the other people I see. No offence but sometimes, it helps to be organized (:

2) The second weird thing about myself is that I do not tolerate people who want to slang when they know they're perfectly incapable but want to prove their inner selves wrong, and I get very very very VERY VERY VERY (alright I'm exaggerating) uncomfortable when people add an 'x', 'z' and 's' to every singlez wordxsxs. Doesn't it just IRK you so so much you want to tell that person to TYPE and SPELL properly but you know you'd be hurting their feelings if you're so blatant about it. I know everyone has freedom of choice. And it's not their fault that I'm uncomfortable. I just don't get why these people are so... weird. Yeah. Isn't it tiring? And you waste your SMS space when you add all that extra 'i lorbx euuu worXs'. Their 'I' isn't capital too! What could have been a phrase taking up 10 spaces became a non-phrase (grammatically wrong, you see) taking up 16 spaces. Yes, I know these people are very rich. But that's not quite the smart way to flaunt their riches by adding more units to your phone bill.

3) The third weird thing about myself is that I like to type. You know for one point I've typed such a huge chunk what makes you think that I can't type a thousand words for this paragraph alone? I'm not going to attempt that cause it's a stupid thing to do. Cause this paragraph is to emphasize on my LOVE for typing, I should just go on and on about nothing in particular. Ain't I good at typing about nothing in particular? Oh yes I am, you know I am. Now all that's a load of rubbish (Like this isn't, pui). Oh my mum often reprimands me for saying 'pi' cause it's very ungracious and uncouth for a girl to say that. I think that word is very cute alright. It's direct, straightforward, and you need not waste your breathe speaking two or three syllabus. One is enough. Fast, good, and to the point. Ain't that good? Ho ho ho. I don't know why but I only use two fingers when I type (DON'T LAUGH AT ME I KNOW YOU ARE). Do you all use two fingers too? The thing is that when I was in primary school I had to look at the keyboard and type painstakingly before a proper sentence could even come out. And now, just two fingers jamming the keyboard and the occasional thumb for the eh wait. I forgot what I used my thumb for. When I am typing about my fingers, my mind and my fingers become very conscious about what I am typing. HAHA. Have you heard of this before? I'm not sure if I have put it across correctly but that's what I experience. I hit the 'SPACE' button with my right index finger. AYE. WHAT AM I TALKING ABOUT. You see, people who talk like that, are they weird or what? Yes, I am weird. (: I belong to the WEIRD WEIRD FAMILY. (Gosh that was total rubbish don't believe my fingers!)

4) I didn't see the word RANDOM so this is going to be RANDOM. I know everyone who knows me knows this (at least those who I talk to), but have I told you, people, that I LOVE KOREA??? Haha there's no escape now if you didn't know cause you can never deny what you've already seen. HAHAHA. Sorry it's not funny. Yes, I DO love Korea. I love the language, the songs the people produce, the very entertaining and romantic shows they have the brain power and cells to come out with which squeezes the tears of every die-hard romantic dry, the very nice seaweed they make, and the very very very professional dance moves they patent themselves with :D I'm not a die-hard romantic. Winter Sonata was quite torturous. IN EVERY SINGLE EPISODE CHOI JI WOO HAD TO CRY. What's in a show like that?! I don't get why the Korean Wave has to be associated with Bae Yong Jun (Sam-choon! [This means uncle]) and Winter Sonata. THE KOREAN WAVE is about people worthy of our liking like Lee Young Ae, SHINHWA, BoA, TVfXQ, FLY TO THE SKY, Rain, Song Hye Kyo, Lee Dong Gun, the pair in Lovers In Paris, Han Ji Hye, Jo Hyun Jae and ETC. NOT SAM-CHOON BAE! He's getting old! And he's only popular amongst aunties! Come on, do not stereotype! Not everyone who likes K-POP is a fan of Sam-choon Bae; definetely NOT ME. So the next time you want to talk about the K-Wave, the first artistes to come out of your golden/silver/bronze mouth would be SHINHWA or FLY TO THE SKY. These two are the only options you have (not as if you'd bother about what I say, but I still like to express my viewpoint on this horrible misconception). SHINHWA and FLY TO THE SKY only. Thank you. No, I meant Kam Sa Ha Mi Da.

5) Oh one more random thing about myself is that I do not like to buy material gifts for people on their birthdays, anniversaries or whatever. I think, if I'm close enough to you, I'd make you something for your birthday. Provided you're like in close proximity with me. I feel that handmade gifts make you think and they churn your creative juices. The plus point is that you need not pour in so much money and waste so much time shopping and parting with your beloved money. It's worse when you have already bought something for a friend and decide to keep it for your own use because it was too irresistible. BAD HABIT. Handmade gifts sometimes challenge you mentally, and I like that. I take a lot of pride in how I present my gift to someone too. I'd try my best to make it look the best, make it sound witty, and ensure that person won't be bored to death by my gift. That's a random side of me. I won't call this weird because I believe I'm not the only person around who's like that. Where's my good friend oh where are you?

PART B
1) Angie? Are you pia-ing A-Maths? You can do this instead!
2) Leck Sze Yun. HAH.
3) Me, when I get bored again.
4) Me, when I get very bored again.
5) Me, when I get very very bored again.

Gah. I really think I do NOT have a life.

Wednesday, February 01, 2006.

I went to watch I Not Stupid Too today with my family, and saw quite a number of JJCians loitering in JP. That's not the point.

The point is, the show's good.

I laughed like a mad woman and cried buckets. Even though I didn't grow up in the kinds of family background which were portrayed, the actors and actresses did an immensely good job on their part, and if you watched it, you could feel how the characters felt. Maligned, neglected, lonely, abandoned.

Yes highly hilarious. I like the scriptwriter. My family ran out of tissues so I had to survive on one for the entire show. It's not enough, I tell you. My sister is such a drama queen she bawls worse than the worst bawlers you could ever find.

Anyway tomorrow's REVELATION? If my ears didn't play pranks on me. I have to work tonight. GOSH. The powerpoint for the Geography project. GOSH GOSH GOSH :(

Life's so sad. Oh! I feel so sad! Ah! Oh! I feel so, Oh! I feel so, Oh! I feel so sad. AH AH AH.

That didn't quite fit, did it?
