Movie and Drama

Once again, I’m not going to post photos. Two simple reasons, I’m lazy and I’m not with the laptop. It’s somewhere else and I’ve been using the computer to play Maplestory. Heh.

Had an LA meeting for the dramatization of the Crucible yesterday. ‘Twas a pretty good one. We managed to sort out all the characters, read through our lines and do the blocking. Plus, we actually had fun. Well, I’m not really sure about the rest, but I know I did. I HAVE YET TO MEMORISE MY LINES.

Went out with Cherie and Shanti afterwards. We had lunch at Plaza Singapura’s Swensens and watched Music and Lyrics afterwards. Golden Village loves to play a multitude of advertisements before every movie, which I resent, unless it’s movie previews. It does make Shanti and I wish to watch almost every movie that’s being advertised though. Stomp the Yard, Shrek the Third, The Robinsons, whatever works.

I think Music and Lyrics was sweet, with Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore. It did make me sort of moody afterwards though. I feel like the rest of the world’s riding on this odd little (okay… maybe not so little, since it’s the world) wave and I’ve just been left standing there because I didn’t have a surfboard. And guess what? I still don’t, plus I don’t think I’m going to be getting one anytime soon. Or surfing lessons for that matter.

Music and Lyrics.

Had Drama this morning. It was good for me, I guess. Laughed a lot at Mr. Whitby’s comments and did odd little sing-song things with my lines. Heh.

I’m losing my will to finish blogging this entry properly. I shall go do whatever else it is that I’m doing now.

Thinking Space

I know it’s really late, and I actually told Cherie that I was going to sleep 15 minutes ago, but I ended up reading Xiaxue’s blog instead. Ack. I think 2 a.m. is a really bad time to be reading her blog.

She seems to have grown a lot in the past few years, becoming more and more confident, and seemingly less and less receptive to the views of others.

Her entries are phrased in such a controversial manner that it would be a wonder if people did not flame her. The funny thing is that I realised that I actually agree with many of her points of view, as long as I take away all the extravagant emotion that seems to ooze out from every entry.

Yes, it IS her blog and yes, she CAN put ANYTHING she wants on her blog and NO ONE can or has the right to stop her, as long as it’s not directly harming anyone else. It’s just… odd, that she doesn’t seem to fully understand that everyone ELSE has a point of view as well. If she feels that it is perfectly okay for her to express her points of view, no matter how controversial or even unwelcomed, then shouldn’t it be okay for others to express their points of view to her as well?

Some of us may think, “but it’s her blog, and if they don’t like her points of view, why not they just leave?!” What’s the point of the commenting system then? After all, it’s not exclusively put there for her well-wishers, but also for those who have differing ideas on the same matter. Furthermore, if she has the right to express herself in such a feisty manner, full of anger, sarcasm and whatnot, shouldn’t everyone else get to do the same?

Her entries are often injected with bouts of her own emotion, and are not just mere facts stated on a column of pink space. Hardly should she expect people to reply with any less zest. And no, I don’t expect her to blog just mere facts, because that would be extremely dull. Basically, I just expect her to be less critical about opposing views, and to be more receptive to people when they tell her something she doesn’t like to hear.

After all, she DOES know that there are a large number of people reading her blog, and posting hugely controversial views or doings of her life is bound to cause some form of an uproar.

Happy Entry! :D

Okay. This is a happy entry because I’m a happy girl (in general) today. Other than the fact that Jonas still has not replied my message regarding our meeting as an LA group, I’m fine.

These days have been good. No photos though. I’m a very lazy girl. I promise that my next entry will have photos, albeit most of them probably being long overdue. But yes, photos.

Lets see, the tests last week were okay (also in general). LA was fairly good, and I’m still hoping for my 35/50. I think some of my answers were unnecessarily long, but that shouldn’t be a bad thing right? Physics wasn’t too bad either. I think I should manage a good-enough score. I’m wholly glad I did not complete my paper in radian mode. I think I shouldn’t score too badly for HCL this time, since the summary was good, and that’s where I usually lose my marks. Trigonometry II wasn’t as good as I’d have liked it to be. I’ll still get my A if Mr. Eng gives me a 5 for class participation and I get a 38/60 for the paper. Calculus was better than Trigo. I actually felt quite good after the paper. A sense of relief that I actually knew how to do the questions. Chemistry was as mentioned in the previous post.

I’m going to fall asleep typing this.

Road Run on Friday was pretty fine. I realised that I cannot run fast and slow down. I have to go constant all the way. I guess my body just doesn’t work that way. Ah well. Wasn’t too bad though. Watched Avril, Cherie and Shanti with their Drama thing and tried to fall alseep on the floor. It worked, but I woke up with an aching head. When it all ended, Cherie and I spent approximately 1 hour bathing in the toilets near LT5. They still have not repaired the hole-for-a-shower-head. The water was freezing cold. I washed and conditioned my hair outside the cubicle because I refused to shower with the hole and went in after Cherie instead.

We left for Orchard after that, for lunch, window shopping and dinner. I ate a brownie. It was a really good brownie, but it was such a fattening brownie. It’s like chocolate + chocolate + chocolate. Ack. So anyway, I hunted around for good ideas for bags, and found a few that I liked. Decided to get them on Sunday (today) instead. It was interesting, speaking to Cherie and treating her as my next experiment subject. There are many observations to be made about her and her… relations. Heh. No, it wouldn’t be very nice to post them here, so I won’t.

I spent Saturday morning in school having rehearsal for IP SYF. Shanti told me something on the night after that made me feel sort of discontented. I’ve realised that we shouldn’t comment on things that we don’t really know about, or a situation which we’ve never actually bothered to analyse, or seen from both points of view. Even though I do it a lot, I’ve realised how unfair it is to the people or person whose actually in the situation himself/herself. If we talk about people and their attitudes behind their back, especially if we don’t know them personally, or are judging them from one particular situation, it’s just plain bad for a few reasons. One, because we’re doing it in secret, they don’t get a chance to explain their actions. Two, what we’re thinking or assuming may not be the case at all. Three, we probably never tried looking at it from their point of view. So I have decided that from this day forth, I shall abstain from making judgmental remarks about others without first trying to see it from all points of view.

Oh yes, I went running on Saturday evening with my Mom. I hope I worked off the brownie. Wahahahaha.

Heh. Went out with Shanti this morning. Met her at Somerset MRT and proceeded to shop around after that. Checked out the bags at 77th street. They were fine, except for the fact that I wanted a cross between something I could bring out and something I could bring to school. Bringing a semi-fancy-ish looking bag to school would be against all my carnal instincts and I may just rip it apart in the middle of the day.

So anyway, I ended up buying that Volcom bag that I liked in the first place. Not from Surfbabe but Flash and Splash in Heeren. Shanti wanted to get a pair of flipflops but there were none in her size. Ack. She ended up getting 3 tops from Dorothy Perkins. I think the tops there are a little long. I tried on an orange tee and it’s about 3-5 inches longer than my brown Flesh Imp one. The stuff on sale’s cheap though. If you buy 2 tees, it’s 70% or 80% of $26. Do the math, I’m lazy.

Ichigo Bliss in MOS Burger is good. Heh. So anyway, Shanti and I watched The Pursuit of Happyness. We were buying tickets and they had a promotion, which we took. I now have this cute cow can thanks to Shanti the generous. I promise that the next time something like this happens, you can have the can/tub or whatnot. I just couldn’t resist this one. I’m a mean, selfish, brat. Then again, maybe not. I’m the oldest child and that comes with enough *pfft* sacrifice. Ugh. Okay, ignore that.

The movie was a good one. Most of it was sad though. Chris Gardner (played by Will Smith) had to go through a whole damn lot in his life before he finally managed to make it big and (probably) live a good life with his son. The movie made me feel as if I really wasn’t doing enough in my life, and that scoring A(s) really doesn’t mean anything. I feel as if I should be getting an internship with the next psychologist or something. It does say however, that if you have a dream, don’t ever let anyone crush it. Hold on to it, and achieve that dream. I should do that. Yes.

Shanti and I went home straight after the movie because her Dad was taking her to the doctor to get a check-up on her sprained wrist, which is giving her trouble. I ended up getting home and watching Mr. Bean, Ned’s Declassified, Life with Derek and such. Thanks to my siblings, I actually enjoy healthy “kids” shows more than “adult” ones. As in, if you let me choose, I’d actually choose to watch something on Nickelodeon or Disney Channel rather than say MTV or AXN.

Nyahahah. I think I shall go brush my teeth now. Heh. Schedule for March Holidays at this point of time:

Monday: Free! (probably going to start on LA homework)
Tuesday: Meet-up with LA group for dramatization.
Wednesday: SYF rehearsal (afternoon)
Thursday: SYF rehearsal (morning)
Friday: SYF rehearsal (morning)
Saturday: SYF rehearsal (morning)
Sunday: Chinese tuition (afternoon)

I still have going out with Shanti once more, GS meet-up and possibly a second meet-up for LA to slot in. I’m not sure if I’m swimming with Wendy. That’ll have to wait till she invites me over.

Photos tomorrow! Goodnight! 11 to 16!

While Waiting, A Wishlist

This post is written while waiting for Wendy to send me the 2nd last version of the Geography report. Right now, I’m thinking about a few things.

1. How long it will be before she’s done.
2. Whether Road Run tomorrow will be fun.
3. How long my entry will be.
4. If my birthday wishlist will include instant mee.

My day summed up in a few sentences. Had the Chemistry paper, which was fairly easy and largely unsatisfying to complete. I kind of wish it had been harder, so that I could actually regurgitate my nonsense knowledge. Ho hum.

Left for a haircut at Estique with Chuyun. I like my haircut! Heh. Dexter (Chuyun’s hairstylist), is a really nice guy. Makes one wish that all guys were as nice. Burst my little fat globule of hope, why don’t you. No wonder Chuyun kept saying, “Dexter’s a nice guy! It’s not nice to make him wait!” Citing that as a reason to cab down to Pacific Plaza even though we had 30 minutes to spare.

So anyway, we had our haircuts (Cherie arrived in the middle of mine) and went for lunch at Pepper Lunch! ‘Twas good. Makes one feel full. We left to window shop and had pit stops at Kinokuniya, the german toystore, art friend, puma and such. I got a Cinnamon Pretzel before going home. Cherie and Chuyun left me at the bus stop and cabbed back to school with a junior. Ack.

So anyway, I’m going to create another page, for my wishlist of items. I shall link it here when I’m done with it.

A random chat with Cherie got me wondering if I should partner Hung for projects like this next time. He can come up with most of the ideas and concepts. I’ll just write the report. Then we can both do what we’re good at, full exploiting our potentials.

This Should Be Long

As seen from above, this should be a pretty long blog entry.

Firstly, I shall try to explain my absence on this blog. No, I have not created a new one in some far-off place that doesn’t actually exist. It’s a lame excuse, but I just don’t have the time to blog. I hardly go online to chat anymore. Most of the time I switch the laptop/computer on to listen to music or do some form of work. Urk.

There is also the fact that I have not cut my nails since the first day of Chinese New Year. I’ve become oddly superstitious this year. Well, maybe I was always so, but I just never showed it. Who knows? Anyway, they say that cutting your nails or your hair within the first to fifteenth day of the lunar calendar will bring you bad luck. I must say that I don’t think I’ve kept to this for the past 15 years of my life and it has not brought my any particular specific form of bad luck, but since my mother had to tell me (so unfortunately) I shall just keep my superstitions alive. This has everything to do with my absence. I hate typing with long nails. It is extremely uncomfortable.

Assessment week’s in a few days. From experience, this is the least stressful assessment week one could experience throughout the whole year. There is little need to revise for LA or HCL, nor will it actually come of any use. The papers they come up with are as easy to predict as the specific day of my next period. The Angel of Physics has struck its merciful arrow upon me once again. I suddenly get the hang of Physics, even if I didn’t just 2 days ago. Preparation for MA2104 is almost done. I just need to make sure I’ll remember everything when the time comes. I’ve practised practically everything for MA2101 except for extra factor formula questions because I can’t find any in my “Advanced Level” Core Math book. Pfft. I’ve just started studying for Chemistry and am half-way through my horrifyingly thick file. This is what I decided to do with my break.

Aims for this assessment week: A for LA2101, A for Physics, B+ for HCL, A (or even an A+) for MA2101, A for MA2104, A for IS2109. Wish me all the luck in the world.

Time’s acting like that hare in Alice and Wonderland. I wonder where the little creature’s running off too, and why (for Heaven’s sake) does he need to bound so fast? It occured to me that the last time I blogged was in February, mid-Feb in fact, but it really didn’t seem such a long time ago. Ho hum. Shanti and I were talking about this the other day. At the very beginning of the day, we wake up all groggy, wishing that we could have just a little more than 4 hours of sleep. By the time we’re in school, we’re all too eager for the day to end. We wholly forget that this brings about another new day, the end of a week, a month, a year, a century. So time slips on, by and by. 19 days before my birthday. I’ll put up a wishlist after assessment week, for those lovely souls out there who want to give me birthday presents. No pressure though.

I can’t wait for the Road Run on Friday. Hopefully, Wendy and I will run together. If not, it could always be with Cherie or Shanti. Avril will be out and Chuyun’s foot probably wouldn’t be healed by then. I think I’ve gone mad. I do not know when I began to perpetually enjoy the idea of running.

As you can see, this entry’s pretty much useless. There’s no focus. There’s no point. Makes me feel better though.

My holidays are being eaten up by that big, fat, pink, squiggly worm we call school. I was thinking of this one episode of Spongebob when I typed that. Heh. Spongebob likes boating school though. So anyway, Diana informed us yesterday that IP SYF Drama would be taking up 3 days of our holidays. 2 days will probably be used to prepare my group and I for the dramatization of our part of The Crucible. 1 day for a GS report meet-up… maybe. My group consists of I-don’t-really-know-who. Actually I remember some, but then it’d hurt the feelings of those that I don’t remember, if they actually read my blog. If we’re not meeting up, I’m not going to screw myself up by offering to do the report. Maybe some of those activities could overlap. Like, maybe my LA group could meet up on the same days that the SYF group meets up. Ah well.

I have 8 minutes left to type before I go back to Chemistry for another half-hour. Then sleep. Sleep should be made an intrinsic activity. I do not wish to go for Chinese tuition tomorrow. We won’t be doing much anyway. I have 2 whachamacallit… chapters left, which is not something you can stretch out into 2 hours.

I enjoy the idea (and process) of forming paragraphs in itself. This is why I can make something out of absolutely nothing. If you’ve actually read till this very point and are really disappointed in my lack of content regarding this entry, well, just don’t read the next one. Heh.

3 minutes. No, I haven’t been using my last 5 minutes very effectively at all. Ah well. I’ve been spending my spare time drowning in an acute sickness that comes with seeing everyone around me pair up better than peas in a pod. Some peas want other peas, which happen to be peas I know, but the latter peas don’t want the former, so they reject them. Some peas want to contact other peas, which also happen to be peas I know, but the latter doesn’t want to be contactable, so they reject them. Such peas are lucky peas. Funnily enough, those peas are the ones who don’t understand why other (less choice-enabled) peas end up being paired up at such a young age. When you can choose from a whole handful of peas, which come bouncing at you from time to time, of course you reject the shabbier looking ones. When you only have a choice between the pea on the kitchen table and the pea on the kitchen chair, you might as well choose one of them, before both are swept away. I have not yet analysed what happens if you don’t even have a choice between those two. Oh wait. Right. You “drown in an acute sickness”.

Goodnight, fellow peas.

A Lot

This is going to be one of the longest entries I’ve typed on this blog. Probably even longer than the one where I ranted after the Principal’s talk with none other than Mrs. Cheng herself. It’ll have photographs though!

So anyway, this week has been a fairly short and interesting one. Lots of tremendously high UPS and horrendously low DOWNS. Ups include going out with Cherie, Chuyun, Eugene, Jonas and Shanti on Friday after Chinese New Year Celebrations, blocking for Drama SYF on Thursday with Mr. Whitby and the IP SYF cast, and such. Downs include being extremely angry and disappointed for reasons that the friends whom I went out with on Friday should know.

Geography on Tuesday morning wasn’t too bad. Here are some photos from the game we played, which involved 5 unsuspecting ladybugs painted in different colors.

This one’s a little blurred. My ladybug won!

This one is also blurred. I need to stop moving my camera before I take the pictures. Wendy’s and mine.

Kind of like on an arena, no?

Mine, Hung’s, Wendy’s, Zile’s, Jonas’. Bugs in action!

My bug on my hand.

Wendy’s bug on Wendy’s hand.

The game was pretty fun, oddly enough. Went out with Cherie at 14 30 as planned. I did manage to get myself footwear. I’m not even sure what category it comes under. Pfft. I don’t really like it I guess. It was quite a last resort.

Shared a packet of red pipe cleaners with Cherie to make Valentine’s Day presents for the class the next day. I gave quite a few ideas, but this is the only one that Cherie would accept. I personally felt that the one with the nuggets, chilli and tomato sauce was a good one. Ah well.

Made this with a pipe cleaner that fell out of another packet.

I think I must have put on at least some form of weight on that day. I just kept eating and eating and eating. Most of the money I spent on that day was on food. Lunch, tea, snacks, dinner; all between 15 00 to 19 30 hours. Cherie and I had a good time talking about the most random things (okay, so maybe not THAT random). Heh. Here’s a cute photo of the Gelato I had. The lemon was too soft, so a cone AND a cup. HAHAHHA.

I laughed so much when I got this.

I’ve realised that I lose my interest in blogging really quickly. Ah well. It’s as if there’s just too much to blog about and I can’t possibly handle it.

Drama on Thursday was the best! I totally and utterly forgot about all my disappointments and annoyance from the previous night. Mr. Whitby made the whole load of us laugh like there was no tomorrow. I’m hoping we have another IP SYF session this Wednesday. It would mean a good start to a good school week.

On a totally different (or maybe not SO different) note, I think I expect too much from people. Every year, I remind myself to keep my expectations low, so as not to feel that overwhelming rush of disappointment everytime something happens. I guess it’s no different this year. Is it really too much to ask for? A group with people who actually care. Who actually bother about the final outcome of something. 1/4 people enquired. That’s not really ideal is it? What more, I expected it to be someone else. Like Chuyun for SPIRE last year, and Cherie for IH. No, we don’t always get what we want, or what we expect. No, we don’t. I should learn to deal with disappointment better.

So anyway, here are some photos of the Valentine’s Day Presents I received.

From Chuyun. A good cookie and a lightbulb!

From Mr. Cheng, to the class.

From Yile. Sweets!

From Avril and Yanshan. Wang wang and Chocolate.

La dee dah. That’s about it. Hershey’s kisses from the Terra HAT, but I didn’t take a photo of that one. I think we all know what it looks like though. Hahahah.

Went to VivoCity with Cherie, Chuyun, Eugene, Jonas and Shanti on Friday, after Chinese New Year celebrations. ‘Twas pretty fun! I like the place, especially when it’s almost totally empty, which it hardly ever is. We’ve planned to go make bears of our own at the end of the year. Should be good.

Bought lots of stuff at Candy Empire upon reaching VivoCity. Now that I think about it, I should have gotten more, since I don’t go there very often.

Left to right. Zombie Chews, Wonka Sourlicious, Wonka Scrumptious Caramel Delight, Wonka Nerds Rope.

Hee! Had lunch at Long John Silver’s and spent time talking about a fair number of stuff, as usual. Chuyun ought to know what signs of affection are by now. Heh. Proceeded to walk around the place after that. Met Eugene and Jonas, who were playing LAN games with the 05 guys before that. (Yes, my sentences are getting more abrupt.) Walked around Page One with Chuyun, who does not seem to know the uses of a toothbrush, and believes that I’m walking down a flight of non-existent stairs when I walk with my knees bent.

Watched Eugene and Jonas have their lunches. Chuyun then took a photo of a guy who was smoking right beside a no-smoking sign. Absolutely hilarious. Of course, we walked around some more. Watched Cherie, Eugene and Jonas play Foosball at Adidas. Nyahahaha. Eugene is terrible at Foosball. Cherie could beat him! The whole thing was really fun(ny) though.

We went to the Orchard area after that because Chuyun wanted to get her pair of Birkenstocks. The girl is limping and she refuses to admit it! I do not know another person who can deny the fact that they’re limping. Hoho. Anyway, I think I shall get a pair myself soon enough. I dislike my current footwear. It likes slipping off my feet.

Ate dinner at Cineleisure’s KFC. I ended up getting fairly… depressed. Ho hum. This is what I did with my cheese.

Get A Life.

Mixture of cheese, chilli, lemon and more. It smells like Tom Yam.

Whined about Physics. Whined a lot about Physics. Ho hum. Definitely irritated some people. Bought balloons at Cold Storage after that. It was a pretty good day overall. My sentences are even shorter.

Chinese New Year has been fairly good, other than worrying about homework whenever I’m not getting it done. Red Packets make me feel rich for a period of time. I wonder how long it’ll take for me to spend it all away.

Why We Should Not

Listen to our MP3 players on the bus.

Setting: Bus No. 66, approx. 100m from my usual stop.
Situation: A bulky guy is standing in front of me. I’m trying to get off the bus. He’s listening to his iPod.

Me: Excuse me.
Guy: *doesn’t respond*
The bus is now 70m from my usual stop.
Me: EXcuse me.
Guy: *doesn’t respond*
The bus is now 50m from my usual stop.
Me: EXCUSE ME SIR!
Guy: *shocked, finally moves out of the way*

This is why we should not listen to our MP3 players on the bus, especially if we’re alone and are unaware of our surroundings. If you’re the kind that would die without his/her music, at least listen to it at a volume where you can still hear others around you.

+++

Ho hum. Ran 4 extra rounds with Wendy today after we were dismissed from PE. That makes 7 rounds in total. I feel a certain sense of achievement that comes with sweating.

No PE this Friday, or next Monday! I don’t know if that’s good or bad. The latter probably. Putting on weight from Chinese New Year goodies is not the best thing ever.

I’m just typing whatever comes to my mind right now, which is why this entry is so… disorganised. We did some personality/learning type quiz for GC today. My top 3: Intrapersonal, Logical/Mathematical, Verbal/Linguistic. Didn’t really come as a surprise to me. The quiz I took a few years back told me I was a Logical/Mathematical person. Does that mean I’ve changed somewhat?

Going out with Cherie tomorrow. I hope nothing crops up (that requires a change of plans), or I will be annoyed beyond imagination. In any case, if that really does happen, one reply I hope I WILL NOT (but am most likely to) get when I “complain” is, “I also wanted to go shopping/this/that whaaaat.” Really, the fact that you wanted to do other things but decided to give it up “in favour” of this or that seriously doesn’t make a difference to me. So it wasn’t really one of your top priorities, so you weren’t really bummed out by it. That’s you.

I shall complete at least half of the Physics report by tonight. Hung reminded me that it was by Thursday and not Wednesday, and that’s good I guess.

Just received a message from Bianca. She tells me that I’m playing Rebecca Gibbs in the SYF play. That’s something new I guess! It gave me a shock though. Mr Whitby was emphasizing on the fact that Rebecca was one to be SMALL last week, three feet or something. I’m 165! Heh. A kid-ish role should be fun! I thought I was going to do something… old, like the Stage Manager.

Now that I’ve got something, I’m going to go look through my lines. Heh. Bye then!

For the Fun of It

I was just telling Shanti that I realised how silly I used to be. Like half of Singapore’s teenagers, I caught the ant-ish font bug. I should have been murdered for using fonts like Verdana and Tahoma in 9 pixels, 8 even!

I’ve not-so-recently realised how tedious it is to read such font. I suppose I shouldn’t torture people just because it makes the blog look… neater. After all, we visit a person’s blog to read what they have to say, and not to admire the stunningly beautiful layout they have.

Of course, I’m not denying the importance of the latter, nor am I insulting you if that’s what you visit blogs for. In any case, wouldn’t it be easier to simply allow others to read what you have painstakingly typed without them having to squint (because the words are packed in paragraphs and look like ant’s stew), or wonder if it’s actually worth it to bother.

Then there are the blogs with background colors that really weren’t made for that purpose. Wouldn’t you agree that no matter how much one loves Hot Pink or Red in this particular shade (#FF0000), one should never use it as a background color? Do you not agree that it hurts the eyes to visit such a blog? Yes, surely you can argue that if those people aren’t happy with your layout then they can jolly well leave your blog and yada yada yada. Yes, it’s your blog and yes, you can do anything you want with it.

Come on, lets face it. We all created (public) blogs because we wanted to express ourselves, whether it be our opinions, or about our day, and have others read it. If you’re going to tell me that you never wanted anyone to read your blog in the first place (or in the future), then fine, I have nothing to say. But if it’s otherwise, then I suggest you don’t have a background color that turns people off the moment they click on the page.

It’s Been Awhile, Again

It’s quite amazing how little I blog nowadays, as compared to previously that is. I think I used to blog everyday, or more than that, when I was in Secondary 1. Ho hum. The entries were largely composed of rants and other teenager-ish emotions; anger, hurt, pain and such. Hey, at least I blogged.

I think the people around me all have some form of psychic ability. On the day I blog, my number of readers will go up and will proceed to decrease steadily as the days go by. Thing is, I don’t remember making it a point to inform everyone after I’ve finished a blog entry…

Went out shopping with Shanti yesterday. I no longer doubt the mystical powers of Retail Therapy. I’m happy after every shopping trip. Still, I’m… annoying to shop with I suppose. I don’t get things on impulse a lot (1 out of 50 times?), and I have to be instantly pleased with how I look (or how the item looks) when I first set my eyes upon it to buy it.

So anyway, I got myself a new wallet, which is plainly just a pouch. I bought it because it’s cheaper and I personally think it look nicer than half the wallets that are produced nowadays.

For $9.90.

Then I got myself 2 tops for Chinese New Year. Both from Flesh Imp.

A little crumpled. For $18.00

And $28.90.

Wee hee hee. I love stuff from Flesh Imp. It’s considerably cheaper than lots of stuff out there nowadays. Like Queen’s Couture, where a simple top, with amazingly thin fabric costs almost $50. Yes, the designs and slogans are creative, but is there a need? Ah well. I’m not rich, so there. I’d rather spend my money elsewhere.

And here’s some random photos, as usual.

LA play. The Monkey’s Paw, Scene 2.

I liked playing Kreton in Visit to a Small Planet. ‘Twas fun!

While walking out of school.

I don’t know why there’s a black circle there. Ack.

Green Tea Ice-Cream. For $2.00.

It’s sold at the drinks stall. Quite worth it really, until you reach the end. Green tea’s bitter, and the more you eat, the more bitter it gets. And it melts easily, unlike dark chocolate.

Lemon lollipop! From my mortal.

I doubt she reads my blog anyway, so it doesn’t really make a difference if I post this here. I never told her my blog address (obviously), and she doesn’t know my name. So yep.

This week’s pretty free. I don’t have much homework to complete. Maybe I will write my Commonwealth Essay tonight, or maybe not. I don’t know. It doesn’t really matter. After all, the current idea I have can be used to write more pieces for my CAP portfolio throughout the year. Furthermore, I’ll have to choose between that, and completing my HCL Orange booklet, re-attempting Physics and practising calculus.

I think it’s time to go back to finishing my tuition homework. My group is almost officially dead for the Physics Balloon Car project. I think the report will have to be written before the car is made and the making of the car will have to go according to the report rather than the other way around. We’ll see about it on Tuesday night I guess. Tuesday is a short day. I shall make sure there is no rush in finishing the report. Yes, I’m beginning to speak to myself.
