Say Hi Again!

I think it’s been close to (or more than) two weeks since I last blogged. :O Surprise, surprise!

The fingers on my left hand are hurting from playing the guitar. I haven’t touched the thing since a long time ago (approximately a month). The skin on the tips of the fingers on my left hand look as if I accidentally put them on a hotplate. :( This is what happens when you stop practising. I shouldn’t ever have stopped.

I’m now getting songs by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus since the internet seems to be in my favour today. :D I should really be getting myself an MP3 Player. It’s good for running. I don’t feel as negative when I’m tired and God knows I get tired easily.

I’ve been thinking too much again these few days. It really would depend on how you define “too much” though. Ah heck! Just get ready for a really long post with absolutely no photos because this is a weekday and my Mom didn’t bring the laptop back. :)

Lets start with the smaller details, like this obscure thing they call “friends”. I’ve sort of come to a revelation that there’s actually no real point in trusting anyone. If you can’t even expect those whom you call your “friends” or “good friends” not to say things about you behind your back (i.e. bitch), then really, what should you be expecting of them? How much (or little) are we meant to expect? It really astounds me how some most people can find it in themselves to put up a well-rehearsed front before the people they don’t like.

It’s just another form of lying, isn’t it? This beautiful, fabricated sheet. Why do people attempt to hide everything from anyone else? Is it a shame, an embarrassment, a sin to dislike a certain attribute of a person? Why are people so afraid of confrontations? Sure, people scream, people shout, but they go home and they reflect. More often than not, people change for the “better” because of these confrontations. Is it that difficult to have things come out into the open? I’d rather that, than you talking secretly behind my back.

My mind keeps replaying the useless things this one particular person has done. Useless, atrocious crap. I’d really like to tell her how much of an absolute ass she is, but people seem to think that’s really not a wise idea. It spins in me like the filthy clothes in the washing machine. Everytime I think about the lies she tells, the way she exaggerates, how close to a whore she is, how many people she’s disappointed and the stupid things she says, I wish someone would just shoot her down. I try not to hate, I really do try. I wish that I could be enlightened as to how she contributes to this… grand design. Ah well, shouldn’t be saying such things.

In any case, I’ve also been thinking about death a whole lot, especially at night. If I was rich enough, I’d move from the north pole to the south pole and back again once every six months, so that I needn’t see the darkness. It doesn’t scare me per se, just puts me off. I don’t actually fear what comes after death as much as I fear not knowing when I’m going to die. I realise that I cannot plan for it, that I could just die tomorrow, or in a few hours time. It makes me feel wholly unprepared, not knowing how much time I have left. It’s like a project which you just have to keep on doing to your best ability, but you don’t know how long you have to complete it, or when you’re going to present it. What’s more, there seems to be so many criteria for judging that you don’t know which to base it on! As a matter of fact, some don’t even know whose judging.

It’s times like these, where this feeling of harsh uncertainty plagues me, that I begin to understand why kings of the old wanted to find ways to immortality. I often also think about what’d happen if my parents died, or my siblings. I know life would go on eventually, but the point is this. I don’t want them to die. I don’t want a body full of life to be rendered lifeless. I don’t want to cremate that body. I don’t want it.

You never know when it’s going to come. There is no warning. It’s going to come, and you’re going to deal with it whether you like it or not. You’re not going to feel it.

Feel like doing something absolutely relaxing. Don’t want to blog about my past few days just yet. Maybe tomorrow, yeah? :D

Dish Dash Dosh

That title becaues I can’t think of anything else. Today has been a random day. Happy, to say the least. :D

Avril and Amanda’s party last Saturday evening

m84347634.jpg
02 + drama people?

It was fun in a socialising kind of way. Althought Introverts don’t entirely like to socialise. Heh. The day went like this. Had drama from 9 to 10+ in the morning, then left for Orchard to shop around for A and A’s presents. Spent 3 hours shopping alone in the area, which was surprisingly fun, especially in the morning (11+ to 12), where there was hardly anyone walking about. Yes yes, I’m a true blue Introvert. Hoho! :)

Met up with Cherie at her bus stop at around 3, took a shower at her house, waited for her to shower, get her dad to wrap the presents, and then scoot off to Sentosa in her parents’ car. Chatted about random nonsense on the way while listening to the radio D.J. who spoke about “Black-Eyed Peas”.

Reached Sentosa and spent some time trying to find Cafe del Mar, which has a curly “M” and kind of looks like Cafe del Moar from some point of view or other. So anyway, Cherie and I “overshot” and missed the place. Only when we met Shanti, who had a map, did we realise that we actually walked past the place already.

So we got there. And had 3-4 hours of fun. :D There was the first round of ordering of food, where we stared at the menu and thought about how much we were going to spend at the place. Then we realised that Avril’s mom would be paying for everything since it was her birthday party after all. O.o Lots of Virgin Margaritas in Peach and Shirley Temples I think. We should get something alcoholic next time. Walked to the beach at one point, played a hand game with Shanti, played concentration with a group of people and just sat down and talked. The chairs, couches, lounges (whatever!) were nice, although a little dirty and somewhat sandy.

Went home at around 9. Shanti’s Samosa just refused to come until the last possible moment. Spent part of my time having a silly internal dilemma, with none other than myself. Didn’t do anything in the end, and I wonder if I regret it. Oh well. Pish posh! Dish Dosh! Allan got into trouble with the people in Newton MRT station. I see nothing wrong with going up the escalator the “wrong way” as long as there’s no one there. If you can choose to walk backwards down the staircase, why can’t you do that? The guy couldn’t even explain why it was an offence. He just kept saying that you’re going against the flow of the elevator and thus it is an offence. You’re not harming anyone or disrupting daily activities since there’s no one there. So WHAT exactly is offensive about that?

So anyway, the guy asked me a really stupid question when I was trying to argue for Allan, that I just couldn’t answer. “What do you think of when you see an escalator that’s going down?” Uh… excuse me, sir… but I think of nothing. I basically have a mental image of an escalator going down! What he wanted me to think was a totally different story.

On a different note, there was the Dog and Bone… Challenge with 07ip02 today. We won. La dee dah. Not-so-friendly piece of advice, it’s best not to boast before an event itself. The minute you lose, it’s so embarrassing that you probably can’t find a place to hide your face. :)

Here they are. Finally.

Well, they’re not. Not just yet. I’m uploading them onto photobucket.

Hmm… In the meantime, I just had to say this. The Heavens Above is sending me signs. Telling me that I really should not be using the laptop or computer unless I really have to. I always find out things that I don’t want to find out whenever I don’t “listen” to them.

From now on, I shall be a good girl and use the computer no more than 3 times a week unless necessary. I will blog twice a week or less. I am very disgusted, bordering traumatized. I truly feel like regurgitating.

In no particular order,

Okay. That’s it. They’re very random photos. If you haven’t already noticed, I don’t actually like having my photo taken. ._. Unless it’s some sort of special event. To be fair, I don’t take photos of other humans either. :)

I’m still feeling oddly disgusted and find a strong need to puke. I shall go take a shower.

Tuition in about 1+ hour. I really need to puke. :(

All Wrong

I’m getting quite sick of myself. Sick of the way I think, sick of the way I do things and sick of the way I am. Just like what I’m doing now.

I think some forms of dancing are, for lack of a better word, stupid. How hard can it be to gyrate your butt multiple times? All you need is that, and to be born with a good face. I think, in this current society, it’d enable you to take over half the world.

PE today was good. Ran 8 rounds in total. 2 for warm up, then 1, 2 and 3 rounds within certain time limits. I think I should push myself harder, but I don’t know when overboard is what it is.

This post contains no photos. I do not know whether my Mom brought back the laptop. It has infrared. So many photos, I owe.

Drama tomorrow at 8. I think it’s a tad early. We hardly get enough sleep as it is. Ah well, all for SYF. :) It will pay off, I hope. Somtimes, I just wish Mr. Whitby would not act as if we were doing the worst job in the world and that we couldn’t possibly be better than any given entity.

I feel sorry for Diana sometimes. She has a difficult job, being the one to co-ordinate everything. The problem with us is that we all come from different CCAs and have different priorities. Ideally, everyone would put drama on the top of the list, but life just isn’t like that. I think everyone should be pre-warned of the demands of SYF. Some tried out only because they were “forced” to, but they got in just the same. These people are least likely to place SYF drama as top priority. They should never have tried just because others insisted on them doing so.

I should get some sleep.

You know, sometimes I think it’s unfair that people judge others in materialistic ways, but that’s almost never because I feel that it’s morally wrong. I only think so because their act of doing so affects me adversely. The funny thing is that I realised that I judge them in the same way, just less harshly. Who doesn’t want to obtain a good-looking partner? They’d tell me to lower my standards, but have you ever seen me do that?

Even for Chinese, I aim for an official B, but I know that I’d really want that A. I want “A”s for everything because it signifies excellence. I don’t need the A+, that’s beyond excellence. It’s perfection in academia. I’m imperfect in so many ways that it seems almost foolish to wish for something like that.

Some probably think that I’m just saying what I say so that others will make me feel better by telling me that I’m really not that bad. But I tell you now, and I speak true; I don’t have confidence in the way I look. I don’t like the way I look. I cannot thank God for what he has given me in this arena. You ask me why I care for I need not conform to society. I do not know. I only know that you are already a part without the need for effort.

I really should be getting some sleep.

Some people cause itches. Itchy scratchy. As Eugene put is, “You put sugar all over the house, then when the ants come, you say, “EH! Why got ants?!”"

Self-Pity

There’s really not going to be anything much but hard words of self-pity in this entry. This paragraph suggests that you leave if you’re not the kind who likes to see Rachel pity herself because the rest of the world doesn’t pity her painful predicaments. Okay, so maybe it won’t be that bad. :) See? I actually have a smiley here!

I hate the feeling that wrenches at my heart when I don’t know what to do about myself or my life anymore. I don’t know where I’m going and I don’t know where I’m meant to be heading either. I have no idea who I want to be, what I want to do, or where I want to do it. That, in itself, seems so far off in the distance. Yet it beckons.

I read this entry awhile ago, written by an ex-Nanyang girl who went off to Victoria Junior College in the same year I left for National JC. It basically talked about how afraid she was, because it seems as if nothing was ever concrete anymore. I would give exact quotations, but she closed her blog and I don’t know when that was. I found it terribly easy to relate to everything she said and I realised how afraid I am too.

Stepping into National JC was basically venturing into unfamiliar territory. I didn’t have to do it. I could have stayed on and played with fate and fire. Maybe nothing would have come of it. Maybe not. I envy those who can say confidently that coming over was definitely the right choice for them. As for me, I still spend time wondering what it would have been like if I’d stayed. Would my Math have improved? How about my Physics? What CCA would I have joined (since bowling shut itself down)? Where would I have gone? Would I have enjoyed myself?

So the venturing was all fine. After all, everyone in NJIP would have to take that risk, wouldn’t they? What bugs me is that even now, after walking in and out of the school so many days, I still seem to be trying to figure things out. I don’t seem to have caught hold of a proper foothold, and I’m just slipping and sliding, slipping and sliding around. I’m scared because I cannot ice-skate and the side of the rink is no where to be seen. I’ve been crawling on my knees, sliding on my butt and giving an occasional skate or two. I know I can’t keep crawling like this and I really have to pull myself together and get up.

There’s no one else in the rink though. Have you ever tried getting up after you fell down on ice? Without anything to hold on to? Not exactly the easiest thing to do eh? Especially when one has no experience. I’m afraid because I just keep crawling and I can’t get up. I’m afraid because when I get up and I begin to skate, I think I’m doing well, but I fall again in 2 minutes flat. I’m afraid because I’m caught in my own little ice globe and no one (and I know they may have tried) can save me.

I just take what’s coming, again and again. There are things that I’ve tried for, and failed. Similarly, there are those in which I haven’t. It’s at this point of time where I usually think that I’m getting somewhere, until it all crashes down like those card houses in the wind. I’m afraid because I don’t know how to build.

I look back and see how everyone else seems to have grown. Or maybe it’s just my lack of growth that strikes me the hardest. Aileen, the girl whom I made friends with at a Scrabble Competition in 2003 has since become President of the Student Council in Nanyang Girls’ High School. Kincheng is a Sectional Leader. What am I now? Who am I?

The Week

I’ve realised that my titles are always the same because they’re supposed to be a preview into what my entry is going to be about. It’s becoming a habit for me to blog approximately only once a week, and thus, there is no better title than something that contains the word “week” as everything that’s happened is varied!

Once again, there will be no photos because I’m using the computer and not the laptop. :( I remember saying that I’ll make posts with more photos this year. Ho hum. I think I’ve actually been keeping with it because I’m blogging a lot less this year as compared to the last.

The first week of school was okay. Got back all our results besides Language Arts. Ms Wong says it’s because some people haven’t done the paper yet. Could they not have done it during the holidays? O.o

Higher Chinese: C+
IS2109: A
IS2101: A+
MA2104: A
MA2101: B

Once again, Chinese has the honour of pulling my GPA down. :) I think my overall for MA2101 still has chances of being an “A” though, thanks to my score for the quiz. Heh. Not a very high one, but an A nonetheless.

We changed seats yesterday. I think my seat’s not too bad in terms of the people sitting around me, but Yeming and I may not have many topics to talk about. Still, there’s always Eugene and Cherie in front and Avril at the back. I really hate it in terms of the position I’m in though. Second row, furthest on the right (with the board in front). I loathe sitting by the side, towards the front because it’s so hard to look at the board from that angle. Ah well. :(

Went out with Avril, Cherie, Chuyun, Eugene and Shanti yesterday. :D We had lunch in school (money-savers!) and went to Orchard for a movie. I refuse to call that area “town”. Why is it town? Where is uptown then? And downtown? Where’s the city, or the suburbs? ;) That’s a lot of questions. Some people lack the ability to ask questions. Ack.

So anyway, we watched Mr. Bean’s Holiday. Or is it Mr. Bean on Holiday. I cannot remember its name! All I know is that it was out on my birthday! Heh. I’ve turn 16, oh yes I have. A big thank you to all those who wished me a happy birthday and even bigger to those who gave me presents. :D Oh right, the movie. It was not too bad. Gave us all a few laughs. :) Rowan Atkinson’s really silly though. How many people can do what he does? O.o

As a side note, I don’t understand why Cathay Cineplex has decided to provide drinks in cans rather than cups. For one, the cups are so much bigger than the cans. At least twice the size usually. Okay wait, I suppose I DO understand the reason for that. What I don’t get is why they have to have it in either coke or sprite! Could they not have something non-carbonated? Like Ice Lemon Tea or something?

So yeah. We went to Burger King after that. Chuyun bought a really large cup of Ice Lemon Tea for us all and we spent the next 2 hours or so talking and drinking. :D I “made” a little drop of water by the name of Tituba John. :D Eugene, being the absolutely nice guy that he is, destroyed it. Chuyun has photos! Haha.

Avril left for prayer at church, and the rest of us had dinner at Pastamania soon after. I had the Meatballs, which were just a little burnt, but were okay in general. Made everyone try tabasco sauce. Eugene was the only one who didn’t have the guts. Hoho.

Went home in the rain after that, sharing an umbrella with Cherie. The whole umbrella was so flopsy and I thought that it must have been faulty. I only realised that Cherie didn’t open it fully when we reached the bus stop and I closed the umbrella. ._. Fancy that.

I shall go back to doing HCL tuition homework and smsing Jolene. La dee dah.

Long Week Ahead

It’s the first day of school, and I’ve decided to blog for approximately 15 minutes so that I can spend the next 15 reading a book or reading through Physics, then sleep. I need it. I slept for 4 hours yesterday.

I find that I get amused whenever repetition is used unnecessarily – such as when one is writing a blog entry. I read this entry in which the writer used the word “sprint” or variations of the word about 10 times or so. It just makes everything so funny! :D Ack. The chances of her reading this and identifying herself is highly unlikely. I doubt she even knows my blog address.

I personally feel that I didn’t score too well for the Higher Chinese paper. It annoys me. The stupid subject never fails to pull my GPA down. This happens every semester. I really need to improve on the dreaded language. Pfft. :( Read. Books. Read. Books. Read. Books. Read. Books. My double worded mantra.

I’ve really been down in the dumps lately. So much so that I am unable to stand my own apparent lack of happiness. I don’t even understand why I care about what the society thinks. Oh wait, I do know. Maybe it’s because it’s all around me, enveloping me every single day, watching my every move. It’s always the people who have all the confidence in the world who tell you to “have more confidence”, they never tell you how. It’d be great if they could just pass on some of this confidence to me, along with everything else that is required to create it.

On one of those days in the holidays, I decided not to play Maplestory but to go surfing around instead. I think it was a bad decision. In retrospect, it would have been better to satisfy my craving for the game, as opposed to finding out what I didn’t really want to know in the first place. :(
