Your Dominant Intelligence is Interpersonal Intelligence

You shine in your ability to realate to and understand others. Good at seeing others' points of view, you get how people think and feel. You have an uncanny ability to sense true feelings, intentions, and motivations. A natural born leader, you are great at teaching and mediating conflict. You would make a good counselor, salesperson, politician, or business person.

What Kind of Intelligence Do You Have?

hmm sounds rather not bad...

exams are over.

the holidays are just round the corner.

this super duper ultra extended long weekend, many things have happened. i have decided to pick up my books again...it's been so long since i have really enjoyed myself in the world of fantasy, adventure and mystery. yepp and i went to bishan library.

it was lovely and new, and there were many ppl there. lots of books, but not enough. didn't have the variety i expected, but well, good enough i suppose. borrowed even more books for the hols. but i feel that the holidays are very empty. i always do. it's like i have nothing to do, no school, no cca, no nothing. i don't really mind it, but i miss having nothing to work towards. perhaps just reading and more reading.

i love reading.

i wanted to forget her, but i decided to stop escaping it and to face it. i guess perhaps, she wanted to forget me too, like i did. she's still the same, yet changed, perhaps. my fault? perhaps. but deep down it was everyone's fault really. u can't blame anyone exactly.

i made the right choice. i should face it and acknowledge it, and not just forget everything. this may have been a blessing in disguise, though i really want to know what the blessing is. i can think of a few, but it doesn't seem enough for this to have happened. i shall never forget this. i want and don't want to forget, but what can i do?

no. don't forget. don't ever do. if you do, you are a coward just escaping from the truth.

isn't that who i have always been?

tears.

sometimes u think tears come and go, and that's the end of that. you chuck it to the back of your mind and think about it perhaps, but no more tears. i thought that. i was wrong. once the eoys are over, once i could have my mind capacity free again from the numbing routine of study study study, i thought. i dreamt, and i thought. and tears came again.

why?

because i realise how much i hated it, how much i hated that, then how cowardly i was. there's a good side to everyone, but also a bad side. i must say that it's so easy to succumb to the bad side. to hate them. to hate her. to hate myself.

hate.

why hate? hate leads to anger, and anger just leads to more hate. isit worth it?

tell my brain to stop hating. it's impossible, impossible, impossible. when you can't stand it anymore, you just do what your eyes always do. pleurer.

i realised i can type up to 90 words per minute! im so pro right? and i actually did not too badly for french killer eoy! i couldn't believe it and i was like muttering c'est impossible as i looked down the marks for each section. and i actually passed the redaction! i didn't noe the format of letter writing, and i didn't even finish it! gosh. c'est impossible. mais c'est vrai. je suis contente.

i find myself getting more and more rebellious. due to the hate. i indeed, finally have run out of patience. told you my weakness is impatience. i couldn't tolerate it, and i burst. i exploded, and hurt everyone around me, including myself. in a way, im like a suicide bomber, who instead of achieving her goals, have ended up bombing herself only. the others are all running to safe distance and shooting at me now. hate comes to nothing i guess.

but i couldn't take it. i take different stands, different points of view, different ways of tackling it, but i got shot down all the same. sometimes it feels like a battlefield, a war that i can never win, a war that im alone in. but there's an even more vicious battle i must win before i can win anything else, and that is the battle within. it is a raging, fiery battle of which the consequences would be the loss of my sanity and mind. either way i doubt i would be able to win and conquer, perhaps till my dying day.

i find myself playing the word death much too easily. like it means nothing. yet it means everything. how can i play with such a word like that? it's awful. but i still do it. doesn't that mean im awful then?

when you are at a loss of what to do, what to do? i can only take comfort in the sole source of enjoyment i have now...my books. but even that is so easy to be taken away from. i think the problem is indeed with me. if others can tolerate and keep their mouth shut, i should continue to be able to do so. just shut up and keep quiet. being rebellious has no use, it only inflicts more harm and while they know that you have a mind of your own, it doesn't help that they hates that fact.

perhaps i should have been born stupid and ignorant. in a place where there is no competition and it's ok to be just yourself. perhaps if i never knew the existence of suffering, of enjoyment, of anything at all, i would be able to be content with what i have.

stop taking things for granted. everything you have outweighs what you don't. no that's not true. just be grateful for what you have now and stop being greedy. i can't help it i am a greedy and selfish person. not to mention lazy, impatient and has a fiery temper. i need control and tolerance.

the source of the problem leads back to decades ago. there's nothing i can do now. live on, and live my life to the happiest. i doubt i will be able to do that. i want music. indluge in music and books, and forget about the truth. forget about the world and forget about everything. but it's no use to deceive yourself.

no use.




p.s. i am not depressed or what. just been thinking loads these days. too much time to think so thinking too much i guess. it's not against the law to think right? it better not be anyway. that's y being stupid and ignorant would spare all these trouble. sometimes i just think too much into things. just call me stupid crazy and lazy. right you win, i lose. doesn't that make everyone happy? a simple word sorry solves everything, yet it's so difficult to say it. to someone who speaks it like drinking water, the word carries no meaning anymore. yet if it makes everyone happy, why not? right you win, i lose.

stressed? ?desserts

ok im getting on quite well with stess. im looking forward to end of year. as in all exams for the yr to be over. i realised being in ip isn't less stressful. instead, it's worse bcos we have more exams and these exams MATTER. without o levels our normal daily lives are HELL. ok not that bad. at least i've survived ^^

just finished geog test today. and got past the horrors of first two weeks of term 4. next up is french eoy this fri, then all the way to the eoys in week 6. by then im sure every other sch has finished eoys and are celebrating alrd T.T while we poor girls still struggle.

pfft. soon. counting down to 27 days later. when eoys are officially over.

oh i should be counting down to my grade 8 piano exam results too. my fren got it back, and guess what? she passed and passed by 17 marks. she said she screwed up. right like i believe. heh she's PRO la. wonder what her screw up was. sigh wishing and hoping for a miracle to happen.

do miracles ever happen?

breaking point

everyone has a breaking point.

for me, perhaps that was it.

the last straw happened, and everything just came crashing down. the tears just came, and everything that made me happy was diminished to the unknown depths of my mind. shouldn't tears have limits? no, tears still came when i thought there were none left.

where did my optimism go? my usual cheerful self that i display when im in front of ppl?

no i have had enough of pretense. i couldn't take it anymore. it was just too much for me to take it. what "it" is, i have no idea. i don't noe, and i can't be bothered to know anymore. i just noe that im very very tired of trying, striving and going for things when even if i do get it, they are nv what i really wanted in the first place.

i go through much troubles, trying to overcome all the obstacles, and yes i do overcome them. i achieve my goals, but they were nv my intended goals really. it was always changed a little, but well it was cause for happiness all the same.

was.

now i don't noe how to feel. i think it might have been the weather...it was simply too cold and gloomy. i shut myself in my room and sat on my bed in darkness, listening to my mp3 and trying to sing along. it helped a bit, and it helped clear my mind.

i could slowly think through everything and decide.

i have decided that i will not fall. i will not give up. this is just how things happen, and i have to learn to deal with it. whether i like it or not.

im going to prove that i have a high pain threshold. i noe i have a super low one, and i can't stand pain, can't stand blood. but now im going to DEVELOP one even if im not. and i shall try to learn to be ambidextrous. though im sure i won't achieve this goal yet again. my injury isn't serious enough.

mind you, don't ever shake my hand ok. it hurts like hell when u squeeze or shake my hand. esp ppl who love to do that squeezing thing that hurts a lottt even without injury.

i can't move my finger without hurting. i can't make use of that muscle without hurting. i can't play the piano without hurting. and in every single piece, i have to use that finger and stretch like siao for about, 100 times in total? not forgetting the scales? where u have to stretch until ur fingers are going to break?

im just going to try my best and i'll tell the examiner. i won't cry bcos of this pain, i don't care. im going to be able to bear this pain and stop being such a spoilsport. whether im going to fail or not, i'll just accept it. exams don't matter that much to me anymore. i just hope that this will recover soon, i miss playing the piano properly...it better not be permanant...

ysc was fun. loads of things were fun. court shoes were torture, blazers were suffocating, and ties were strangling. but they really make u look pro, and i felt pro. it was a wonderfully great experience, and we got merit award! unexpectedly. can't wait for ssef next yr. i so <3 our poster!

blaming. regrets. despair. i hate myself for all that. can't i just forget about all that and focus on what i should do? it's just all my bad points appearing at the same time, the hot-headedness, the stubbornness, the selfishness, the depressingness parts of myself all coming out at the same time. there's more, i can't think of, but comeon! cheer up! it's not the end of the world!

yeah i noe it's not the end of the world. even now, i believe that this wasn't the real breaking point. it's not serious enough to be one. it just felt like one then...but now, perhaps it was just a break i needed to take. there's still a long way to go, and im still young. undoubtedly, more troubles will come, and not to worry. i'll stand fast and overcome them one by one, albeit any breaks i need to take to move on.

yep. anything is possible as long as you are still alive. anything is possible as long as there's still that shimmer of hope, that bubble of hope. yeah?

enough is enough

as you grow older, you find yourself bombarded with many many things. many unexpected things.

you just have to learn to deal with it.

and you learn.









hopefully, you don't give up, then you'll learn.








for me, i think i have grown more mature over the years in rgs. i think im super stressed up, but this forces me to learn.

here are the things coming up:

math test = this wed
show and share -REMEMBER FOR GOODNESS' SAKE!- = this wed
ysc = this sat
deadline for ss pt
chem pt
and physics pt = week 2
piano exam = week 2 tuesday
geog test = week 3 monday
french eoy week 3 friday
eoys = week 6

and countless other unnamed stuff.

im going to be real busy this coming weekend.

just hope im not falling sick. i am getting headaches whenever i think hard about something and get focused, ie. when i do homework, pt, and generally anything stressful.

like my stressful life isn't stressed enough, i have yet more problems. but i can settle them, right? yes im sure i can.

even piano has let me down. i can only take comfort in songs. singing. singing has let me down b4, and since then im afraid of it. but no choice. singing is still my love. <3

ahh such a crappy post. i don't blog much, and when i do, it's when i want to organise my thoughts i guess. whoever is reading this must be 满头雾水 by now. forgive me. im sorry.

Zn... Zinc
You scored 25 Mass, 39 Electronegativity, 55 Metal, and 0 Radioactivity!

You have a strong sense of the communal good and you aren't too demanding. You know better than to mess with the powers that be. You value being surronded by the right people, but don't care too much about what people beyond your group think of you. You are also the last element to be mentioned in every vitamin commercial, and have gained recognition throughout the 50+ community as the very symbol of "completeness." Hmm, you might be good at taking care of sick people, but that might be hogwash too.



My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

	You scored higher than 99% on Mass

k this is super lame T.T i better go do proper work now. zinc is odd. plus the 99% thing is super inaccurate. i mean, my radioactivity is 0 =.=" shouldn't that mean it's higher than everyone else's by 0%?

plus watch the music video in the previous post! it's nice. ^^

过敏 sensitive by rainie 杨丞琳

for some reason i love sad songs. whether im happy or sad, i love to listen to sad songs. i guess that's y i like rainie yang's songs. she sings quite a few sad songs.
one of my personal favourites as follow:



i guess at the last part she's supposed to be jumping off the building?

new music

decided that this blog needs some nice music. the only one i could find is this song "Aimer" from Roméo et Juliette. super touching lyrics and melody. Definitely my favourite french song.

Roméo et Juliette:

R: Aimer c'est ce qu'y a d'plus beau
Aimer c'est monter si haut
Et toucher les ailes des oiseaux
Aimer c'est ce qu'y a d'plus beau

J: Aimer c'est voler le temps
Aimer c'est rester vivant
Et brûler au cœur d'un volcan
Aimer c'est c'qu'y a de plus grand

R,J: Aimer c'est plus fort que tout
Donner le meilleur de nous
Aimer et sentir son cœur
Aimer pour avoir moins peur

R, J, Chœurs: Aimer c'est ce qu'y a d'plus beau
Aimer c'est monter si haut
Et toucher les ailes des oiseaux
Aimer c'est ce qu'y a d'plus beau

Aimer c'est voler le temps
Aimer c'est rester vivant
Et brûler au cœur d'un volcan
Aimer c'est c'qu'y a de plus grand

Aimer c'est brûler ses nuits
Aimer c'est payer le prix
Et donner un sens à sa vie
Aimer c'est brûler ses nuits

Aimer c'est ce qu'y a d'plus beau
Aimer c'est monter si haut
Et toucher les ailes des oiseaux
Aimer c'est ce qu'y a d'plus beau
Aimer...

haha shall not be bothered to translate. the lyrics generally are metaphors and mushy stuff about love. touching. i'll never forget this song.

minesweeper

im feeling weird now and is simply playing minesweeper. actually i should be doing homework and mugging for the tests coming up but well didn't feel like doing anything worthwhile, so well here i am blogging ^^" why are we forced to retake english! ahhhh saddddd. sighh i dun want to sit through the whole 1 hour 40 min paper again, esp summary ): i mean all the efforts we put in for the previous one was wasted.

argh shall not think about it. things to rmb!

week 9 mon: math SA2 + chinese SA1. later on go through eng previously-summative-turned-formative assessment.
week 9 tues: chem SPA
week 10 mon: photo-taking -rmb!-
week 10 tues: english compre -sigh again-
week 10 thurs: chem EOI

perhaps going watch da vinci code somewhere around post exam period to celebrate. -cheers up-

i think that everyone is a leader in a way, just that u dun need a leadership role to show it. in daily life u can do it. of course it is difficult to show the leadership in everyone. u need initiative...but i must agree that monitors blah aren't always leadership roles, but that doesn't mean they cannot be. some chairpersons and prefects can really lead the class and even the whole school. especially since they are holding the title, they take more initiative to lead, they have the licence to lead that kindof thing.

ok im going go to sleep. -plonks flat on face out of fatigue-

boink---by cherica

You Are 40% Boyish and 60% Girlish

You are pretty evenly split down the middle - a total eunuch. Okay, kidding about the eunuch part. But you do get along with both sexes. You reject traditional gender roles. However, you don't actively fight them. You're just you. You don't try to be what people expect you to be.

How Boyish or Girlish Are You?

ahh philo test tmr. crap. go study le. byeeee.

love, cherica.

boreddd

holidays are realllyyyyyyyyy boring! i actually kindof miss school. but i like holidays only when i get to go to other countries and learn new interesting things and have fun and enjoy myself! not when im stuck at home with that thick -and a leetle boring- book and my computer. nothing to dooooooooo.

and my brother isn't around to play games with meee. sigh.

anw i watched harry potter 4 ytd with blaws, and it was rather nice. although i think they should have elaborated more on the quidditch world cup, get a thinner-and-younger-looking viktor krum, and shorten the first task a leetle, and get ron to change his hairstyle. hmm. yah, but overall it's quite good, and i rather enjoyed it. oh and they should do more on the last part where crouch junior confesses. under the influence of the veritaserum.

they missed out totally on the house-elves as well as Ludo Bagman!!! Winky and Dobby didn't appear at ALL. nor did the thousand galleons. leetle stuff like that that makes the story more convincing and complete. probably it's difficult to make those house-elves thingies and introduce so many characters, when many other new characters are introduced alrd. like rita skeeter and cho chang and fleur and krum and the two schools.

the frenchy accent was terrific! and madame maxime and fleur absolutely look frenchyyyyy. heh. and i wonder why madame maxime is taller than hagrid, and didn't get angry with him, nor state that she has "big bones" when he asked her which of her parents are giants. i quite looked forward to that part u noee.

especially for those who didn't read the book b4, they will wonder about the priori incantatem thingy, about how mr. crouch died -killed by his son-, stuff about crouch junior like how he escaped from azkaban and so on.

lala. cedric's not bad-looking, and i think yinfei will be sad that malfoy hardly appeared in the movie, like only one scene or something. haha. qw likes cedric! ^^ well, harry looks weird, and blaws, do u still think his neck is fat? =P i like snape! yes i agree with blaws, he reminds me of may tan! hee. snapeysnapeysnapeysnape! and poor hermione looks like she's going to cry half the time, and the yule ball was nice. though it was too short. it's like b4 u noe it, hermione quarrels with ron and orders ron and harry up to bed. haha.

but it's a good movie anyway, so do go watch if u haven't alrd.


You're normal. Go you.


What Medieval Torture Device Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla

heh. im normal. indeed.

drama nite

Drama nite is finally over! well we got third, but it's better than getting fourth! heehee. we won 204! i can't believe it, our class was practically bouncing up and down when we realised we got third. i mean it's just third but we were like we got first. =.="

well, we got into the top four classes and to perform on drama nite, and that's a wonderful feat alrd, for our class. >.< well but it was kind of fun, except there were too many blackouts. i think we should have left the lights on and the props ppl can just move about while we keep quiet. then dawn can move the light sticks for us to continue. at least it doesn't seem such as long and biggg pause that everyone start talking and get restless. yah. and i love qw's exaggerations! they were so funny that the judges were laughing. i saw the principal laughing! hee.

yepp. and i keep remembering bits and pieces of the play after drama nite! what to doooo. i practically memorised the whole script. and during drama nite poor yanyee was the only one to say "the mother said". the rest of us forgot to! poor yanyee. >.< ah well. maybe i should type out the script here? this way i will never forget it. yep.

Jack and the Beanstalk

Jack and his mother lived in a house
So dank, so rank, it frightened every mouse
Vines crawled
Spiders trawled
Windows were shattered
Every nook tattered
[Each cranny battered]
It was a pitiful excuse for a farm
And the state of their finances was much cause for alarm.

Jack's mother said," We're stony broke!
Go out and find some wealthy bloke,
Who'll buy our cow, just say she's sound,
And worth at least a hundred pound.
But don't you dare to let him know,
That she's as old as billy-o."

Jack led the old pink cow away
For this old girl would someone pay?
Over the hills and far away,
A magician appeared, possibly gay.
Jack thought," I've got me some prey."
He parked old daisy and began to say,
"I've got here, sir, one heck of a cow!
The sight of her udders will make you go wow!"
The magician wrinkled his nose, he stroked his chin,
And said," Though all I've got is this one bean,
My bean here she's full of fight.
All she needs is one short night,
To grow oh so high,
Transcending the sky!"
"I'll take it!" Jack cried.
Slapping the pink cow on her back.
"Off you go!" he said with a grin,
"I've got myself a mighty bean!"

Jack returned home over the moon,
He couldn't stop grinning like a loon.
And said, "Oh mumsie dear, look what your clever little boy has got.
I've got, I really don't know how,
A super trade-in for our cow!"
The mother said," You little creep.
I'll bet you sold her much too cheap."
When Jack produced one lousy bean,
His startled mother, turning green,
Leaped high up into the air and cried,
"I'm absolutely stupefied!!!
You crazy boy! Do you really mean,
You sold our daisy for a beannnnnnn!?"
She snatched the bean, she yelled "You chump!"
And flung it on the rubbish dump.
Then summoning up all her power,
She beat the boy for half an hour,
Using (and nothing could be meaner),
The handle of a vacuum cleaner.

At ten pm or thereabout,
The little bean began to sprout.
By morning it had grown so tall,
You couldn't see the top at all.
Jack cried, "Mum, admit it now!
It's better than a rotten cow!"
The mother said," You lunatic!
Where are the beans that I can pick?
There's not one bean, it's bare as bare!"
"No, no! You look up there!
Look very high and you'll behold,
Each single leaf it solid gold!"
By gollikins, the boy was right!
Now, glistening in the morning light,
The mother actually percieves,
A mass of lovely golden leaves.
She yells out loud,"My sainted souls!
I'll sell the Mini, buy a Rolls!
Don't stand there and gape, you little clot.
Get up there quick and grab the lot!"

Jack was nimble, Jack was keen,
He scrambled up the mighty bean.
Up, up he went without a stop,
But just as he was near the top,
A ghastly frightening thing occurred --
Not far above his head he heard,
A big deep voice, a rumbling thing,
That made the very heavens ring.
It shouted loud,"FEE FI FO FUM
I SMELL THE BLOOD OF AN ENGLISHMAN!"
Jack was frightened, Jack was quick
And down he climbed in half a tick.

"Oh mum! Believe you me
There's something nasty up our tree!
I saw him mum! My gizzard froze!
A Giant with a clever nose!"
"A clever nose!" his mother hissed.
"You must be going round the twist!"
"He smelled me out, I swear it mum!
He said he smelled an Englishman!"
The mother said, "And well he might!
I told you every single night
To take a bath because you smell.
But would you do it, would you hell!
You even make your mother shrink
Because of your unholy stink!"
Jack answered, "Well if you're so clean,
Why don't you climbd the crazy bean."
The mother cried," By gad I will!
There's life within the old dog still!"
She hitched her skirts above her knee,
And disappeared right up the tree.
Now would the Giant smell his mum?
Jack listened for the fee-fo-fum.
He gazed aloft. He wondered when
The dreaded words would come. And then...

From somewhere high above the ground,
There came a frightful crunching sound.
He heard the Giant mutter twice,
"By gosh, that tasted very nice,
Although...(and this is grumpy tones)
I wish there weren't so many bones."
"By Christopher! By gum!
The Giant's eaten up my mum!
He smelled her out! She's in his belly!
I had a hunch that she was smelly."
Jack stood there gazing longingly
Upon the huge and golden tree.
He murmered softly,"Golly-gosh,
I guess I'll have to take a wash,
If I'm going to climb this tree,
Without the Giant smelling me.
In fact, a bath's my only hope."
He rushed indoors and grabbed the soap.
He scrubbed his body everywhere.
He even washed and rinsed his hair.
He did his teeth, he blew his nose,
And went out smelling like a rose.

Once more he climbed the mighty bean.
The Giant sat there, gross, obscene.
Muttering through his vicious teeth,
(While Jack sat tensely just beneath)
Muttering loud,"FEE FI FO FUM
RIGHT NOW, I CAN'T SMELL ANYONE."
Jack waited till the Giant slept,
Then out along the boughs he crept
And gathered so much gold, I swear
He was an instant millionaire!
"A bath, does seem to pay.
I'm going to have one everyday!"

THE END.

haha rather funny at some parts. yippee! i typed it all out myself! from memory! ^^
add in some exaggerated expressions and actions, loudness and softness, some imagination, and expressiveness, as well as props, et VOILA! that's our 2nd runner-up play! heehee, gl didn't have to memorise any lines, and yet she's the main character---the beanstalk! haha. "Jack and the Beanstalk" yeah? the beanstalk is in the title!

yah we had gl moving down and up when Jack or the mother was climbing up and down respectively. yah so u imagine Jack is actually moving up rather than the beanstalk is moving down. haha. i think the judges gave us some points for that creativity. :)

And I will miss all of you 207! We've been together for 2 years, and though there had been plenty of differences, it had still been a wonderfully great time together all the same! I wish all of u all the best, and good luck for the many years to come! -that includes me too. heh ^^-

we got in!

yes we got into drama nite finals as the top 4 classes. hurray!

it was really unexpected, provided our horrid class spirit and stuff, and our play wasn't THAT good. in fact, 209's was nicer than ours, and better. but they didn't get in bcos they exceeded the time limit by two minutes i think. apparently it's a hugeeee mistake to exceed the time limit and stuff. while our play is too short. only 5 min plus when the time limit is 8 minutes! yes, so we were asked to lengthen our play and stuff for the finals. i hope we won't be 4th, at least let us get third? after all, it's our last last last event of the year that we will ever be able to do together as a class 207!

sigh i guess i will really miss all my classmates. but it can't be helped. there's bound to be times of separations and reunions. i hope that some of my classmates get to be in the same class as me next year. but it's a whole new bright future ahead of us! sec three beginning i shall bond and have loads of friends! and hope for SMP. >.< yes and stuff.

yah loads to look forward to i guess. and wish us good luck for drama nite! it's totally unprepared and getting worse by the day. >.< yay i memorised my parts! heehee. oh i forgot to mention that i am choral speaker. in the middle-pitch group. and im not the main one lah, just the back row one. i always laugh when qw makes all those exaggerated gestures. even though im on stage and performing. =.=" i hope the audience will laugh like i did. but during prelim rounds they only laughed at the beanstalk! they said that the beanstalk was really cute, growing up and down. haha.

yah and the giant was scary and convincing. hurray for jill and her unending props and costumes! yah and the make up and stuff. jill has practically anything and everything to do with drama at home. haha.

yep. so that's about all. wish us good luck! by right it's the last day of school ytd, but monday there's still drama nite performance, and we have to go school early at 9am so we can rehearse. then rest our voices in the afternoon then go full-force for drama nite! all the best, 207!

freedom at last!

yes freedom at last! we went to french fest after our last exam on friday, and it wasn't very interesting, but well, it's quite fun anw. there were some shows with ppl dancing on stage, and we walked around taking goodies. bhu was swooning over some very cute french guy, and there were another french one who spoke to us that was very handsome. and blaws went and got his autograph! for some weird reason. for fun lah, then we all oso asked for his autograph lor, since he was signing for blaws. haha it was so funny.

yah, and i changed blog music. this is arabesque no. 1, by claude debussy. nice? haha.

hope we will do well for netball carn. off i go to play! ^^

eoys

yes i know i know my eoys aren't over yet. but i felt like blogging, and so here i am. so far the eoys have been terrible, with most of them being horrid, like i couldn't finish or it was too difficult or i didn't know how to answer or that kind of thing. tmr's left maths. hope that can do well. i haven't been doing well in maths for the past year. this is my last chance.

oh well. i don't want to think about eoys.

french eoy tmr!

tmr is french eoy! i am extremely worried.

i had a dream this morning, [somehow i awoke in the morning] or rather nightmare. some things happened in the dream on the morning of my french exam, and then somehow i realised i was late at three o'clock, then somehow the time of exam had been 4 pm, then somehow my mum and brother brought me to bugis where there were soooooo many people and traffic and we moved like turtles, and there is some maid waddling along right in front of the car =.=" and then my mum realises i want to go bishan, not bugis, then she asked me to take mrt there! i was soooo worried and scared i took a taxi and rushed all the way to moelc and reached at 5.30pm. by then, all the students have finished their work and is checking, i think the paper was supposed to end at 6pm. and it was the scariest and horrifyingest thing that could EVER HAPPEN. and i had to be awakened by my mum, bcos i apparently had ignored the alarm clock, so tight my nightmare had gripped me.

it was very scaryyyyyyyy and it felt so real, although the details were blurrish. im so afraid something like this will happen!

not that it will. i won't let it anw. it's so impossible. bugis?!

anw, bonne chance pour ton examen demain, tout le monde! for the benefit of those who don't understand, good luck for your exam tmr, everyone! this is more for sec 2 german and jap students. haha yeah. off i go to mug for french!

you're squiffy

hee An Inspector Calls is over! i can say that my favourite quote is "you're squiffy." this is NOT influenced by blaws. hee.

lit. test was ok...just that everyone else seemed to have written much more than i did. like blaws wrote 3 and a half, gaosi 3 and one quarter, and yinfei 12 pages!!!!?????? left line of course, but 6 pages...!? and i wrote a pitiful 2 and one quarter pages. nvm. i wrote about the same amount as eelyn. ^^

i wonder if anyone did the third qn. it's really challenging. i won't be able to crap it. really.

and im not sure if my essay is good. it is rather lacking in quotes, since i didn't memorise much quotes about inspector, but loadsssss about the birlings. =.=" nvm.

oral was ok. just that i didn't mention my personal experience. and eric lau was nice. he laughed twice. shall not elaborate. generally ok and he nodded vigorously at times. plus im the first person, so he seemed very eager to try out all his qns. >.< like he's asking me at least 5 qns! he was scaning his beloved list of qns, looking for one to ask me. and everytime i thought it was over, he asked another qn! =P horrible. it seemed eons b4 he reluctantly said "that's all." orals was quite relaxing actually. hmm.

and rs is horrible. shall not think about it.

lala i want to climb to the very toppppp of the rock wall! but it's not quite likely as our class is given too little time! bcos of all those holidays and stuff. sighhhh. i want to climb to the top! but i only managed to reach the overhang. which is like blaws, 3 blocks above the red line. however, it was alrd very scary, and i got tired when i stopped there looking for a foothold, without avail. and ended up holding on mostly with my trembling and not-at-all trustworthy hands.

sigh. if only there are nice footholds. however, that lane is the easiest, so yah. it's quite easy to get up there. but im tallll. and i could see so highhhhhhhhhh. and the first person i saw was qw. =.=" i was yelling "FALLINGGG!!!" many times. as my hands about to break off and no one replied me. instead, i heard something about "the puple one!" >.<

finally, eelyn the great -hurray!- said something like "fall on" and then i did. and i bounced about for a while b4 trying to do the L-shape thingy that os keeps ranting about. haha. falling is fun! and much less tiring than holding on there with one foot on the wall and two hands holding on desperately. bah my arms are weak.

however, there is no more chance of climbing, except for assessment. hope i get to go on the easy lane, so that i can try to climb up to the top. if not...then too bad...haha

yes and i hope someone from our class at least manages to reach the top!

boink. boink. boink. 100 000 000 000 000 is actually one hundred trillion! it takes one hundred trillion of atoms to fill up one square area of sides one cm. hee.

and googol is 10^100. which means there are one hundred zeros behind a "1" and yah. haha and google was supposed to be googol, but bcos of a spelling error, it became google. i think google sounds nicer than "googol".

it sounds like some weird monster-cum-ape-cum-hairything-like giant. yah. and sounds so primitive and un-civilised.

left eng. summary, geog. ws, chem. assignment and some new ws. and rsssss has two things to do. shall not elaborate as blaws -glares- will comment about how i should not tell others what i do for rs. like others will care. it's what they have to do too...

nighty

here's stuff about sunsets! it's really interesting, about why sunsets/sunrises are pinkish, orangish and red. haha: click here

yes and now im officially a member of scitare! lalala im sooooo happy! i shall be less ignorant in the future! and noe more sciencey stuff! hee...

Where are the secrets to the universe kept?

The answers do not lie in technology.

Technology is but a stepping stone to the next question.

We are fueled by a restless imagination; an endless sense of wonder that has brought our world closer together and led us ever deeper into space.

What we've discovered along the way is that all the secrets to the universe are contained in the boundless reaches of the human mind.
