YOU ARE WATER!

Your inner element is one of great compassion and love. You are an extremely kind-hearted person who tends to care more about helping others than themselves at times. You gravitate to people who need help or just a shoulder to cry on and you provide them with the support they need. You harbor an intense compassion for others that is truly admirable. You are an incredibly easy-going person who just goes with the flow and tries to be comfortable no matter what. You tend to collect things, little reminders or memories of time gone past. Any career that will allow you to help others in any way is ideal for you. Love is a essential element in your life, and your search for the one and only for you is paramount to all things. The one you choose with have to be loyal, honest, and able to share their emotions with you.
Your greatest strengths are your ability to bond with others and help them through the tough times. Your weaknesses are your tendency to get overly emotional on things and drive those you care about away with your emotional outbursts. Balancing your strengths and weaknesses is crucial for you to achieve balance in your life.

K-Box

First of all,

Happy Birthday to Sally!!!

Went to KBox with the usual gang.. and we totally enjoyed ourselves! Though we each had to pay almost double of what we thought was the price. but oh well, non-stop singing from 2-7pm.. it was terrific!!

Basically sang the whole entire afternoon and early evening away..and i hope i can still sing properly tmr. haha.


The birthday girl!! haha
ok i'm quite tired to blog further..

Annoying blood suckers

argh!!! is it me or is there an increase in the number of mosquitoes in the house?! Where did they all come from?!

its super frustrating.. i keep using the repellent and they still don't die!! its like i'm unwilllingly feeding them.. !! Gosh, they cunningly sneak up to you and suck your blood without asking for permission and still dare to leave a horrid bump mark on the skin which itches and itches!! arhhh!!!

*DIE! MOSQUITOES DIE!!!!!* (muahahahahahh! *evil laugh*)

Well actually i heard that mosquitoes leave their saliva in you after stinging. It' to prevent the blood from clotting so that she can enjoy her feed, until she is full. ( ARGH!!! The nerve of HER!! and yes, its only the females that bite..tsk!! ) the protein (protein?!? like am i supposed to be grateful now?!?) from the saliva sort of triggers some reaction from our immune system, resulting in the swelling. So the body's immune system actually has to break down the "protein" before the swelling can go down. AND!!! not all people when bitten, will feel the itch.(those lucky few!!) It all depends if they are allergic to the mosquitoes' saliva.

gosh, i hope the mosquitoes are like "dengue fever negative".. like, don't bite me and leave me with an itchy swell AND dengue. oh please no..

*squints eyes, looking out for those bothersome creatures*

Batam was a Blast!!

i'm back from batam, aching and tired, but nevertheless, happy!

----Sat----
It was really quiet over there and we had great weather!! Though initially after lunch, when we wanted to go do the water sports, the skies were rather dark and we heard thunder!! Then i was thinking like, "ohh nooo!!!" Even the adults adviced us not to go, so in the end we went to check in into our rooms. However, due to some arrangement of the booking or transport and dinner, we realized we had the whole afternoon off..! with NOTHING to do! in the end, since it STILL wasn't raining, we went ahead with the water sports.

The parasailing was super expensive!! a whooping 25 buckaroos! (ok la, not THAT costly, but for parasailing, its not worth it) so in the end all 4 of us took the banana boat and kayaks!!! *grin*

the banana boat was not too bad. It was freezing cold even before we fell into the water. All the wind blowing and Sarah & Eileen claimed that their teeth were chattering! And the water was so much warmer..til we went onto the boat again, then it got more chilly. *brrr* but all in all it was great fun! BUT! They only wanted to overturn the banana boat once!! til eileen asked the unlce to overturn it again. The uncle was nice enough to do so..=) after that, we went to kayak. the water was surprisingly calm despite the signs of rain. Although it would be more fun with some waves, we still had fun. Since it was still early, we went swimming in the pool-borrowed a ball and played around, attempting to shoot it into the hoops provided..

Went for a full body massage.. and it was so ticklish that i kept laughing. (surprise surprise). had a headache after that.. think it was due to lack of food. was so HUNGRY!! we went to buy snacks and those dry food before going to have dinner. bought my MAGGI!!!!(indo mee rather) and ARNOTT's Tarlets!! i LURVE them.. its so gooD!!!! yummilicious.

----Sunday----

went to swim again in the morning before having breakfast. ooh then we had this friendly clown guy in the hotel hanpaint our hands for all 7 of us..(using face paints)..then he taught 4 of us some dance..(the adults went off on thiri own) which looked a lot like line dancing..=) he taught us three different ones.. and in turn we taught him our 5,6,7,8 dance!! haha so fun man.. all of us dancing at the lobby area,(for abt an hour??) with so many ppl looking.. went back into the rooms to take crazy shots before sleeping again..

all in all, it was really fun!! =)my mum had a good time too.. haha.

A tribute to the people around me

[Music: Light in your eyes]

i am in the thoughtful mood again..

Suddenly i am so thankful for so many things.

i should learn to be more thankful more often. yes i should.

I am:

Thankful to God (of course) for everything, and his continuous blessings.

Thankful for my dad & mum, for just loving me..always there to encourage me, give advices..for doing all sort of things for me, and for bringing me into this world.

Thankful for my friends, who are always there to give a hug, always there to talk to, always there to laugh with, always there to cry with. always there to encourage.. always there to listen, always there to help. there to give wild ideas, to have someone to go crazy with.

thanks to all for making my life so colourful.

=)

Fun at Jasmine's

At long last i went to Jas's place today. haha it was quite an "achievement" for me as knowing me, i'm quite lazy.. and her house is ALL the way at the OTHER end of Singapore!! So FARR!!!! haah but yeah, since i already gave her my word, and even postponed the day, i finally went down in the end. Well it was really enjoyable, we watched vcds, namely A Cinderella Story(like finally!! i know i'm super lagging here) and Save the Last Dance ( ok, this is even more lagging. the show was like, two plus years ago?) but anyway, i still prefer "Centrestage".. Then we also sang some songs. haha i was trying to figure out how to read the words and get the pitch right..*screech* well, actually, it wasn't THAT bad.. haha i lurve her room!! so cosy woosy.. makes me wanna go to IKEA again! that reminds me.. i wanna eat their yummilicious swedish meatballs!!

Turns out that i would have been able to go to Batam after all regardless if the briefing was on, since athel's parents paid everything in FULL..

Sally was asking me if i wanted to join them to go K-Box tomorrow.. but i can't make it, since i already told my dad i would be meeting him for lunch.. so oh well. i managed to sing a little today.. so nah.. another time yeah peeps? prolly when the rest are done with their exams.. if not i can't imagine the situation when chris sings..HAHAHA. like that time.. ok i'll stop suanning him. LOL. In the meantime, Sally can go do her impersonation of Fish Leong. (at least, i THINK its fish leong-haha no no, its fish dippers.)

OK lame alert!!!haha.

I CAN GO!!!

yay!! i can go!!! [Thank u God, Thank u Mum.]

i just lurve my mum. shouts:" i love u muM!!"
(okie, of course i still love her whether she lets me go or not, but now i LURVE her for trusting me and letting me go..) Thanks MOM!!!!

for a moment i thought blogger was down. well their maintanence was pretty fast i must say...

Wednesday, October 20, 2004

Oh Man!!!

No no no!!!! The briefing is this Saturday!!! aargh!!!!!!!!!!

So its a 90% chance that i can't go!!!!! sigh..!!!!

majorly disappointed. =/

Chop Chop

I finally had a haircut!!! Met Jasmine and had lunch before taking the shuttlebus from C K Tang...all the way to Great World City. Well i must say that i like my new haircut!! though i need to learn how to style it..and i hope it doesn't "PONG" up.. though it wasn't as short as i wanted it to be.. the hairstylist was telling me that if it was too short, it wouldn't look good due to my OH-SO-THICK-HAIR. And he was kind enough to give me a discount..head feels really light now!!

Then went over to Far East with her to cut HER hair.. basically it was a "cutting hair" day today.. hahaha.

My mum has to attend this briefing.. and i hope it doesn't clash with the Batam trip!! Cos if she's attending the briefing(she HAS to attend) it means she can't go to Batam. And if she can't go to Batam, it means I can't go either!!! aHhhh!!! no no no!!!! so yeah, pretty please don't clash with each other!!!! otherwise, Athel's daddy will do the bookings tomorrow! Yipee!! Can't wait!!! =)

Hmm does my hair look better before or now? haha.. just asking!!

What a Gigantic Relief

CDEV paper today was, a disaster!! So many application questions came out, like- 12 ways to play with a rattle. what in the world!?!? My eyes literally grew bigger and bigger as i read each questions.. thankfully my heart rate didn't excelerate.. even crapping didn't help! but oh well, its over. i'm more interested in having fun now..

i have a huge appetite for FUN..

had a super filling lunch at NYDC!! so full that dinner was just prata. But all in all, it was a fantastic way and day to wrap up the semester!

*happy sigh*

Friday, October 15, 2004

Yipee...

yay!! One down, one more to go!!! hmm, the paper was, haha OOOKKKKKAAAYYYYYY lah. could do most of it. I think. Though the mark allocation was *gasp*!!! so much!! and what i studied was like only enough to cover like a third of the marks.. unless the teacher is very generous with the marks, i highly doubt that for a few lines i'll get like 11-12 marks. so i did what i always do. crap my way through.. hey i think it is a useful skill to have ok.. HAHA. Then there were the usual "since when we learnt that?!?!" questions.. i was like deciding & choosing which question to do..that is, which qusetion would i lose the least marks in..LOL. but oh well, its over. And for the first time, i actually sat through the entire 2 hours.. usually by the first hour, many would be done. Many people felt the same way apparently, cos not many people left the examination hall.. haha. yepp.. that's second year papers for you.

But i'm still happie!! cos my PQS group got an A+ for our project!! the CUTES rawk man!! Way to go guys!! (right auntie?? kekez) all the hard work paid off.. well, it always pays off doesn't it? *grinz*

Can't wait for tue too.. made an appointment with the hairstylist!!! can't wait to chop everything off...!!

Thursday, October 14, 2004

it has yet to begun...

ooh yay!! the papers are tomorrow!! like, FINALLY!! Though its in the afternoon.. i prefer it in the morning actually. i can't wait to get it over and done with. sheesh, i even wished it was today instead!! argh!! i can't wait to have fun. yep. Fun is all I have in my mind now.. i can't seem to find any more stuff to study for tomorrow's paper. And it seems i'm not the only one!! ALL the handouts and notes seem to be repeating itself.. and just reading and re-reading it again & again makes me so tired of it!! argh, so yeah so i'm here taking another break... since i'm so wide awake. Hopefully after this, i'll have some motivation to study again.. just a quick reading for all my notes and i'm done!! woo hoo!! I can't wait for sat!! it marks the end of my exams, and officially the end of the semester. And i'm so hyper now.. i feel like daincing!!!

*and geri dances & prances*

I've more or less planned waht to do for the coming week already! am i fast or what..HahA.

Wednesday, October 13, 2004

BOOM BOOM BOOM

Aahhhhh.

I finally have peace and quietness in my house- except for the usual tv sound-everything is good. Upon reaching home, or rather, before i even stepped into my house, i could already hear my neighbour BLASTING his karaoke set, and singing at TOP volume. probably level 10 or something. Like, are you hard of hearing or something?? its SO SO LOUD!!! and his house is barely 5 meters away! its so annoying! especially when u are trying to study! its doesnt help that the weather is also so freaking warm!! *Rawrr!* i was like, "patience!!" *inhales deeply* On the bright side, at least his singing is not bad. Wouldn't it be worse if he screeches his way through?? yup. [The brighter side] Haha i should probably go over to ask him if I can sing some songs too..bring some discs along. after all, if u can't beat them, JOIN them!! haha ok- don't smack me, i'm having weird ideas again..
+++++++

FOUR days to study! I am so grateful for the study break! cos poor bevie n jovi are not given any breaks at all!! Is the school trying to kill you guys with stress overload or something??
+++++++

Eileen was asking me to join her for "WhiteChicks" tomorrow.. tempting! but nah, i'll stick to my studying. putting all enjoyment on HOLD until after saturday!! Remember our cycling date with LauYing on the 17th!! *grinz*

Two to go

Alrighty!! Today's Financial Management test was not too bad! oh well, whatever! what's done is done, worrying doesn't help. And i'm OFFICIALLY DONE with accounting!! Don't get me wrong, i don't particularly hate it, in fact on the contrary, i like it! and my accounting notes are the notes that i read the most often! To think the test is 40%,the same weightage as my written exam papers.. makes u think of the exams lightly..haha! i hope my "whatever" mode does affect my studying..
+++++++

i'm will currently be in the geek cum nerd mode for this week. starting on monday..muahahah. Told myself NOT to go online..at least, not during the day. probably only from 23:30 onwards. so IF u happen to see me online, haha it means i've been a naughty girl..

Its seven eleven!! time to hit the books. yeah, i wish i could literally HIT them. just fling them all- my notes and textbooks-across the living room and or straight into the bin. Its a pity I can't just rip the notes into shreds or burn them. Cos i still need them for.. well, for a pretty long time. haha now where did that crazy idea come from?!?!

Friday, October 08, 2004

Last day of school, first day of real studying

yay!!! My list of projects is FINALLY shorter!! ( as u can see below the comment links) So there's the accounting test tomorrow plus my two written papers both weighing 40% each at the end of the week and i'm done with Year 2 sem one!!

Haha speaking of my written papers, i have so much reading for DLE(Designing Learning Environments) and for CDEV 2.1 (Child development)there is quite a bit of memorizing to do! *ahem* correction. A Lot. haha. so i have like, approximately 6 days to cram a whole semester's work into my brain.. yay yay. Right.

oh well! i already planned so MUCH things to do during this hols!!! *grinz* All the things planned from the prev hols that were NEVER done, all brought forward!! haha, kayaking, cycling, skating, pool, basically just enjoying.. ok better not get too carried away just yet. YET.

haha and gaya's lame tale of her "geography class: 'feeling texture' of pebbles" thingy just craks me up!! LOL!!

p.s and i never knew that macaroni n uncooked green beans could be eaten just like that.. u have to see it to believe it. yep! HAHAHA ok, i'm mad now, laughing over sth that happened like 10 hours ago.. so slap me.

on hugs..

It's wondrous what a hug can do.
A hug can cheer you when you're blue.
A hug can say "I love you so."
Or, "Gee, I hate to see you go."
A hug is "Welcome back again."
"Great to see ya, where ya been?"
A hug can soothe a small child's pain,
And bring a rainbow after rain.

The hug! There's just no doubt about it,
We could not survive without it.
A hug delights and warms and charms;
It must be why God gave us arms.
Hugs are great for fathers and mothers,
Swell for sisters and for brothers.
And chances are some favorite aunts
Love them more than potted plants!

Kittens crave them, puppies love them;
Heads of state are not above them.
A hug can break the language barrier,
It can make a bad day merrier.
No need to fret about the store of 'em:
The more you give,the more there are of 'em.
So . . . stretch those arms without delay
And give someone a hug today!


gosh i just like this poem..

Give us Clean Hands

We bow our hearts
We bend our knees
Oh Spirit come make us humble
We turn our eyes
From evil things
Oh Lord we cast down our idols

So give us clean hands
and give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
Oh give us clean hands
and give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
Oh God let this be
a generation that seeks
Who seeks Your face, Oh God of Jacob
Oh God let us be
a generation that seeks
Who seeks Your face, Oh God of Jacob



This is a nice song!! Anyway, my monday morning seems to be getting better! Though i woke up with a headache at first. i'm enjoying the quietness & peace in my home.. and i'm in such a thoughtful mood. It's just one of those days where u think a lot and reflect about life..

Anyway, taking a short break from studying..a REALLY short one. after this i'll go back to my work... PROMISE!! =)

+Blessed

hmm, i think there's the flu bug going around or sth.. everyone seems to have similiar symptoms! sheesh, and i finally decided to go to a doctor..was telling him about the chest tightness and he said that it may be due to muscle spasms. I was like, " erm.. what causes that??" Then he said its either due to a viral infection, from the result of coughing too much, overwokring or too much stress.. HMM. He wanted to give me painkillers but i was like, "NO!!" it sounds too EXTREME! told him i would monitor my condition..whew. Initially i thought it was sth to do with the heart, since its always on the left side..ha then he was telling me to stay of away from CHOCOLATES!! and all the fried food.. and have more water..(something which i MUST do) i'm like dehydrated! waterbottle comes back from school almost full! then i came home and the catered food had to be fried chicken and curry veg!! argh.. i so wanted the curry veg!! haahaa

Eye Problems for everyone

First it was jasmine, then Eileen, then Sarah, then Mina, now me!! urgh! there's something i can't get out in my right eye! and its super annoying and uncomfortable! I shall force myself to cry hoping to wash whatever its inside out. I hope its not some growth or wadsoever!! and yeah, i don't have eye drops.. so i can't use them. Only natural tears.ha.

My headache took really long to go off!! and throughout the day it felt like it was coming back. And I was SO tired!! like lack the energy to even walk.. i have no idea y i feel so drained!! i hope i'm not coming down with anything!! Was supposed to meet the girls to swim first later, but decided against it. no energy to walk, where got energy to swim?! and in case my headache comes back again.. so i will only go at night..

k off to dinner!! t-a-t-a.

Hurting Head

argh!! my head hurts! the after effect from the childcare center!! seriously! the kids were SUPER HYPER today!! so full of energy, screaming at each other, fighting, crying, running everywhere, jumping, crawling, making noise.. *shudders* i can still "hear" and "see" them now lah!! and due to the extremely HIGH noise level, my head has been hurting since. Argh! so annoying! i cant concentrate on my work!! and i'm SO TIRED!!!! =/

And i mixed up the deadlines to pass up my assignments laH! lucky i was talking to my frens and they mentioned the ACTUAL deadlines. And thankfully i completed them already. If not i'll probably be burning mid-night oil now.. and frankly speaking, with my head hurting, i doubt i'll be able to do a good job.

oh! i temporarily curled my hair at Jee's place. and i look so OLD. and i think my hair was so SO dry after the steam effect that i think if u light the ends of my hair, my whole head would probably catch fire! *vroomm* and i really looked like some lion. *ROAR* Curly monster. i was like deep conditioning my hair today, and i'm glad to my normal hair back. haha but it was a nice change for that evening.. =)

oOh!! i am finally (FINALLY) meeting up with my sec sch friends!! tmr! for some mooncake festival celebration at christopher's place. Have to rush home for dinner, then prob go down at night or something.. play lantern and eat mooncake. since i dun have school on Wed!! yay!!! wait, do i have class??wadever, even if there is,its a LATE afternoon class anyway.. yeaH! finally can do some catching up with my buddies!! the usual laughter and nonsense.. and i heard tt the girls r having some weekly saturaday swimming at bevie's place! ahh!! i wanna go!! haha

ok i'm off to rest. bleurgh.. i lack sleep.

say what?!

Happy 18th Birthday to JoYee!!!!!

haha it was a great day, a great week. Nothing could be better! =)

On the other hand, i have 4 hours lectures every friday now til the end of the sem! Like the three hours lectures are not enough to put us to sleep, they added another hour! hah. And yeah, towards to end of the lecture today, i couldn't help but doze off. oops! Well, at least our lecturer pushes back the deadlines to the last day of school!! which means not so much rushing to get everything done by next week. That's one less worry. For the moment. and the only worry i have now it HOW AM I GOING TO STUDY for the written papers?!?! seriously, i have little idea of what i've learnt!! And i'm sure all of us feels the same way. oh nooooooO!!! And i hope the lecturers would be OH-SO-KIND to give us a clue and hints on what is going to come out!! like, PLEASE DO!!! hahaha.. and i only have 6 days to remember a whole sem's worth of work!! well, lets take things slowly shall we? projects deadlines first!!! =)

La la la la la la.....

-Time Flies

woohoo!! i've cleared eveything i have to do for this week!! whew.. actually, not whew. next week is another killer week!! everything due!! i think?? Oh well, just breathe!

haha Rufi was saying that i'm the most retarded friend she knows.. one min. stone, one min. sing, one min. laugh..HAHA! i found that so amusing...

n i think i have short term memory la!! i can't remember what i wanted to type!! and i can walk and forget where i wanted to go. i'll probably forget my name one day or something man. haha. *rolls eyes*

[edit] ok i remembered waht i wanted to say. Sigh, would you want to work with someone who does not do their work, or who calls u up at the last possible minute and complain of some problem(tt conveniently crops up) and asks u to do it for her? Would u want to wokr with someone who does not contribute to the project grp but ride on others and gets the same A or B grade that the whole grp worked so hard for??

Everyone does not want la.. and sometimes i do pity the person. Its not a nice feeling when no one wants you. sigh.. being selfish doesn't help right. oh well.. any ideas? note: telling the person to change does not work.[/edit]

Tuesday, September 21, 2004

I Passed!!!!

i am so HAPPIEEEEEEE!!!!! cos i PASSED my FP assessment!!! Praise the Lord! yeah! and just as i predicted, my stress level is down by half. and because of it, i'm like so super enthu about doing the rest of my projects. like i can't wait to complete it.. hmm, am i mad or am i mad?? DON"T answer that. hehe-well, apart from the AW's proposal thingy. ugh, that proposal in SUCH a pain!! and well, maybe balota's paper. haha but oh well! i'm HAPPIEEEEE!!!! suddenly, my mentor is not so bad after all. i guess i have to be thankful for her strictness, as it'll probably benefit me a great deal in year three. yepps!

*You are the way the truth and the light, we live by faith and not by sight for you, we're living all for you.*
-seriously, that song is STUCK in my head! in a GOOD way of course.. =)

If I Stand

[edit] tribute to eileen: WHATEVER!!!!!!!!!! haha i seriously think our "wadever!!!" mode will last till end of the term. i hope not.[/edit]

There's more that rises in the morning than the sun
And more that shines in the night than just the moon
There's more than just this fire here that keeps me warm
In a shelter that is larger than this room

And there's a loyalty that's deeper than mere sentiments
And a music higher than the songs that I can sing
Stuff of Earth competes for the allegiance
I owe only to the Giver of all good things

So if I stand let me stand on the promise that you will pull me through
And if I can't, let me fall on the grace that first brought me to You
So if I sing let me sing for the joy that has born in me these songs
And if I weep let it be as a man who is longing for his home

And there's more that dances on the prairies than the wind
And more that pulses in the ocean than the tide
There's a love that's fiercer than the love between friends
More gentle than a mother's when her baby's at her side

And if I weep let it be as a man who is longing for home

Matching Christmas

whew!! Finally the Math Learning Center is done! That's one down, and STILL many more to go! but thankfully, both our presentations went well today =) Took quite a few photos too. And we ended off our presentation with a bang! haha not really, but we did end it off with a new version of "we wish u a mery christmas". haha guess who's crazy idea it was..

We were learning how to diaper and bath infants in our lecture today. So our lecturer brought up the two fake babies again (Sakiko And Jordan-named prev by us) and they when we were really given the opportunity to try out bathing and diapering the two infants, we were all rather rough with it. haha. We got Jordan first. And Tricia was commenting he looked like chocolate. haha. Yeah, then Sakiko would probably be white chocolate huh.

Pictures below.. u can see part of our center at the bottom center.. haha and the two fake infants...lolz

It feels good to be myself again.. =)

Tomorrow's the presentations! haha lucky i suggested drawing lots, if not it'll be me presenting tmr..kekez. ain't drawing lots fun?? =) and we're most probably wearing christmas colours! since christmas is out theme.. =) and i'm the only one who has a green top la.. haha i'll be like, the odd one out.. oh well wadever!! confirm later again..=) i'm really happy!! judging from the number of smiley faces.. how many ARE there?? haha=)

madness

i was a little high today...what people would usual call, Mad. For some reason, my mood improved tremendously! so much that another 2 friends told me that i was more cheery and not grumpy like the previous days. *yay* that's certaintly good news. so yeah, i was laughing real loudly(as usual)and laughing at everything(as usual)again..

got two presentations on tuesday. but somehow, i feel excited about it. can't wait to start on our prepartions on our learning centers.. i TOLD u i was mad.

ooh!! i so wanna go to IKEA!!! i miss their yummilicious swedish meatballs. *mouth waters* Too bad i missed their sale! just going to IKEA makes me feel like changing my room layout. Haha, too bad i can't just change it like how i always change the blog layout. blame it on me getting bored too easily. and bev thinks the blog layout now is evil. what's so evil about it i dunno!! LOL. thanks to brian for the background. haha. can't wait for next year when we learn a little on web designing. what i know now is SO SO limited!!! hence the reason y the layouts have the same kinda look. I WANT ADOBE PHOTOSHOP!!! i hate it when the only drawing software i have is PAINT. HAHA.so yeah, i do hope i can pass FP n proceed to my second sem. (there she goes..there she goes again...) sorrie, this FP thing is still bothering me, not as much though. i wonder why??? anyways,

*sings*
So let the sun shine in
Face it with a grin
Smilers never lose
And frowners never win
So let the sun shine in
Face it with a grin
Open up your heart and let the sun shine in!

better

[heyyy! my prev entries wasn't deleted after all] hah.

thank u my dear bevie for that nice talk we had late last night!! i felt better after that. =)

argh! 2 people asked me if i was like stressed up today. is it THAT obvious? is it written all over my face in black and white? hah, i suppose... sheesh. FP is driving me crazy! called my mentor today.. hmm wasn't so bad.

and now i know why i've been feeling so drained during the weekends. its due to the after effects of the weekdays. haha and i lost my balance thrice on the steps today! i almost fell backwards twice. Then when i decided to be more careful, i tripped and almost fell forward. i think my center of gravity shifted for that moment.

Happy Birthday to Tricia and Athelyna!!

celebrated their b'days with a really delicious chocolate cake from Four Leaves. it was really really good! 6 layers in total, with melted chocolate, waffle biscuit and cream all inbetween three layers of cake. YUMMILICIOUS!! and 8 of us finished up the entire cake. we were playing the number game to decided who woud eat up the remaining pieces. i was seriously bloated. on the verge of puking..

[its no small matter!!] its that bad to the extend that i had a nightmare of it, that i got not 1, but 2 big F's for that module. *sniff*

*pulls hair*

i think i shall go scream soon. i hope this stress thingy dun affect my tolerance level. Thank God for people who never fail to brighten my day..

*just keep going, just keep going, just keep going going going....* (frm Finding Nemo, "just keep swimming..."

HAH! talking is easy. doing is a total different thing. somehow i feel that my list is gettin longer, not shorter. now i wonder why..

haha, new version of itsy bitsy spider

The itsy bitsy spider crawled up the birthday cake,
he ate up all the frosting,
and got a tummy ache,
and when they brought the ice cream,
he ate even more,
and the itsy bitsy spider fell sick upon the floor.
They took him to the doctor because he felt so bad,
it was the worst tummy ache that he ever had,
and when they brought the medicine it was WAY TOO SWEET,
just a drink of water would be a great big treat,
so the itsy bitsy spider crawled up the water spout,
down came the rain,
and washed the spider out.
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
and the itsy bitsy spider went up the spout again!

ok found that amusing.. came across it at http://teachers.net/lessons/posts/2559.html.

other than that, my saturday morning seems to be going well. i have inspirations for the music lessons plans!! about time loh. i have to get everything done by MONDAY! haha, thanks to aunty linda for some tips! haha.. if only next year i get attached at YOUR center! haha though not very likely, but hey! u never know...

Go UP, go DOWN

well well well, today is certainly an interesting day, if i do say so myself. To cut a long story short, much happened, and i certain hope it gets solved soon! To leen, dun worry girL!!!
haha yeah, went to ART FRIEND at bras pasar to get materials for our proj. and i tell you, i LOVE that place! i could practically feel my brain juices flowing as i passed each shelf and rack.. the colours, the papars, the cloths and more.. SIGH!! ok anway, we saw LOTS of boxes in the storeroom, n we wanted to ask if we could have them for our learning centers. yeah, we need LOTS of them to build, well build everything.. from the chairs to tables to shelves. YEPPP. but we saw loads outside the store, so beeling n i went digging for boxes while leen paid for our stuffs. haha we looked like those "karang guni" men, and pple kept staring at us the whole time! oh wadever! haha do in the end we got four huge boxes and more card boards too. Then when we carried it in front of us and walked in a straight row, we looked as though we are protesting against something loh!.haha but i found is such a funny episode. Shared a cab back and left all the stuff at leen's place.

Sigh, talking abt proj, i have to forgo all the other stuffs planned for my weekend!! *heaves a big sigh* no movie, no ys, no party. SIGH SIGH SIGH!!!!!!!! sorry to the pple out there, i can't make it! even though i initially thought i could. =/

AND the contemporary dance is FULL!!!! *wails* the lady called n told me today! so i can either join the ballet one or the full day symposium one. and after much consideration, i decided to give the symposium a miss, and ballet too. Cos i'm not really into ballet.. so they're gonna return the cheque.. oh well. i guess its all for the best!! considering the amount of work piling up up up!!

and my ankle is hurting AGAIN!!!!! argh!!! so annoying i tell you. like hello?? how long has it been already?? can u jus HEAL!?!?! argh. letme see.. feb-aug.. that would be 7 months!!!? =/ should i go see the chi phy again? but like so troublesome.. sigh.

For You

I said a prayer for you today
and i know God must have heard,
I felt the answer in my heart
although He spoke no word.
I didn't ask for wealth or fame-
I knew you wouldn't mind-
I asked Him to send treasures
of a far more lasting kind.
I asked that He be near you
at the start of each new day,
To grant you health and blessings
and friends to share your way.
I asked for happiness for you
in all things great and small;
But it was for His loving care
I prayed the most of all!

a sigh of relief

*whew*
i passed. Thank God for his grace.

My mentor still gave A LOT of comments (which i don't really mind, cos it helps me to improve) but she alomost marked me down due to the classroom management thing. And frankly speaking, i think my classroom management is really bad. siGH!!!! oh well, now one down, one more to go (for this term) and another 2 more to go (for NEXT term). To a certain someone: Don't be disheartened, don't even think of giving up. Just take all of it as a learning experience! look on the bright side, u passed too!!

yeah.. so far so good. everything is great! I really should be rejoicing now shouldn't I? *thinks* and *nods* yepp.

*rejoices*

=)

argh!!! my annoying neighbour is BLASTING his karaoke!! as usual!! he really BLASTS it so LOUD loh. Thanks for being considerate. NOT. how am i supposed to concentrate?! thats y studying at home has its numerouos disadvantages. Not only does it have high noise levels at UNPREDICTABLE times of the day, there's always the television and computer to distract me from completing my work. Ok, the latter i can control. its all about discipline and setting my priorities straight. But all the BLASTING?? nopes! *shakes head* i should just go over to tell him to lower the volume!! argh!

okay, other than that, my work seems to be making smooth progress.. oH! my attachment assesment is tmr!! i had better pass this time round man.. *thinks* yeah, leave everything to God. *nods*

suddenly i feel like eating bee hoon. wait, i just ate that for lunch!!! oh well, i STILL feel like eating bee hoon. *chants* bee hoon! bee hoon!

church was great!! nothing new.. church has always been great. haha =)

there are times for everything.. so use ur TIME wisely.

To every thing there is a season,
and a time to every purpose
under the heaven.

A time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant,
and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

A time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;

A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

A time to cast away stones,
and a time to gather stones together;

A time to embrace,
and a time to refrain from embracing;

A time to get, and a time to lose;
a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

A time to rend, and a time to sew;
a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

A time to love, and a time to hate;
a time of war, and a time of peace.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

yepp!

summary

just ONE word.

"wow!"

what an amazing week!! full of the incredible UPS and the little downs.. yeah man!! leave everything to God!! =) i still can't believe the stuffs that has happened, but yeah, thank God for always being there. its great that i am finally able to go for the mission trip! And now all i have to get through are my project deadlines, endless assignments,(challenging ones too i might add) and not to mention the remaining couple of tests and written papers i have to sit before it's "finally over" for my first sem. but yeah, nothing is impossible. Just believe. =)
lastly, thank God for you. (and you, and you)

hMmMm, jus a note

A river cuts through rock, not because of its power, but because of its persistence.
-Jim Watkins


well, come to think of it, studying seems like an easy job compared to what other teenagers our age are facing around the world. Famine, war, poverty..... and the list goes on. hmm, shouldn't we be thankful that we have a proper education?? haha talking is easy, yeah, just a thought.

so! when u are sick of studying, think. would u rather be starving, be without a home or sth.. or would u rather study? haha k this is like a bit irrelevant already.

so humans out there!! study!! you are not alone!! everyone has to go through the stressful studying periods.. and don't think it will end after each year. it gets worse. haha ok i'm not exactly helping here am i? hiak hiak...

Mommy cat: (wails) where are my kitty cats!?!?!??!!!!
Queen: (annoyed) Can u all just quit the noise and hurry up sing the right verses so i can eat my Sunshine bread and honey?!?!
Maid: (dances) ladidaaaa, i still have my pretty nose!!!

The other F Word

F also = Failure.

yep. i totally screwed up the art assessment today.

[shan't elaborate it here]

like "hello geri?!?" how can u even fail it?! its so easy!!
sigh, so much for the effort put in. i have to admit, i was feeling rather useless..

i think there has been too many good things happening to me, so this failure thing is something to balance it out. hAHA. BIG joke. wad nonsense, geri, u trying to console yourself?!?! well, i almost passed, if that is something to be glad about..

On the otherhand, at least i'm given another chance, which is already something to be thankful for. Furthermore, its NOT the end of the world.. God is not gonna like judge us on our grades in school right.. besides, we have to be "positive in the face of trials!" and may this be a learning experience for me... to improve and become better.. be it being a teacher or character wise..

The Secret Cavern

Underneath the boardwalk, way, way back,
There's a splendid cavern, big and black-
If you want to get there you must crawl
Underneath the posts and steps and all
When i've finished paddling, there i go-

None of all the other children know!

There i keep my treasures in a box-
Shells and coloured glass and queer-shaped rocks,
In a secret hiding place i've made,
hollowed out with clamshells and a spade,
Marked with yellow pebbles in a row-

None of all the other children know!

... Margret Widdemer

what a great day with great weather! nice *pitter patter* of the raindrops.. plenty of reminiscence, plenty of smiles..

The Mission

To love the Lord our God is the heartbeat of our mission-
The spring from which our service overflows.
Across the street, all around the world
The mission's still the same-
To proclaim & live the truth in Jesus's name.
isn't it funny how when u are enjoying yourself, time seems to fly by? i'm like halfway through my holidays and somehow i don't feel as though i have accomplished as much as i wanted to. YET. But thankfully to God, my week has been much blessed with laughter and joy.
and i am in such a thoughtful mode now..
before i forget,

Happy Birthday LauYing!!!

there are so many August babies! haha

haha. i still feel so ARGH!!! so wasted, now it totally ruin the show!! *wails* like, thanks a lot man!!! k i know i a bit over drama la, but of ALL people, chris telling the ending makes it worst!!!

anyway, went to do a make-up for my attachment, and nearly got another headache!! man, i think my level of noise tolerance have to increase, if not i'll "die" soonr or later...

was so so sleepy after that!! my eye lids were like closing.. and i was contemplating going home to sleep instead of going to bedok lib. to study.. haha. but after stepping out of the train and feeling the heat, i decded that no way was i going to sleep n study under those horrifying conditions! its not made for humans!! haha kk i very DRAMA tdy, bear with me please.. so went to lib in the end.. and i tell u, 987 kept playing the "catwoman" ad, and it made me think of chris and his stupid cat fight joke (at yana's bbq LONG ago) and i started to laugh n laugh!!!! non-stop!! and there was this guy n girl next to me who kept looking at each other, then at me, then smiling and laughing..AT ME! haha fine.. maybe they thought i was laughing due to the radio or sth. either that or they thought i was really bonkers. who cares.. haha. Then!! thinking of tt reminded me of chris and his "scary movie 2" joke.. (bev, the graduation song one) and i started laughing all over again! this time the girl took her notes to cover her face. i did the same. i was SHAKING loh from all the laughing. i was trying to think of sad serious things, but failed terrible. Tried taking a deep breath but it made me laugh harder. everytime i take a DEEP DEEP breath i will laugh even before i finish inhaling.

i Got a Dog!!


haha, NOT.

Friday was fun!! NP had a fun fair! and i was trying to use up my $5 coupon wisely. Bought a really bright coloured dress! =) The food stalls weren't that fantastic, so headed over to the games stall. In the end, Eileen managed to get tickets and she went to sit this ride with me. And i was so scared i'll FLY off that i gripped the bars so tightly! haha my arms are aching from all the swinging and bumping!! Eileen has bruises too! But all in all, it was really fun! And that ride itself was $5. haha!

Eileen still had another set of tickets, so we ended up playing some "throw the ball into the cup" game. Won the dog, and she gave it to me.. haha Thank you!! =) Jas was asking me to name it and it so happened that i sneezed at that moment. hence, her name. Ah-choo!! a lil' lame, haha.

And I'm finally back frm Eileen's place. haha spent like almost two days there, just doing our project. Slept at 3! And Jas n beeling came quite late.. ha they were supposed to come at 10:00 initially, then it slowly got pushed back hour by hour, till thy finally came at 13:30. Seriously, we took SO LONG to write a 4 page report!! my brain switched off somewhere during the early evening. well, on a lighter note, its just 15%!! well at least its 95% done,just left with our referencing. =) WHEW!!

luv it

i just lurve my fisherman pants!! (even if some thought it was weird)

went down to SP to meet bev for lunch, and i couldn't find the place! surprise surprise... haha. but yeah, finally reached the destination.. tired and relieved. Had a quick lunch and bev brought me to the opto. lab where jov n pamela n others were doing some thing. haha it was really cool man! all those equipment... suddenly i wish i was studying optometry too..

bev and i were talking.. and i think bev's jelly is good! mine on the other hand is not so yummy.. right bev???

rushing projects like MAD now. well, not really MAD, but can feel the pressure & hear the clock ticking. *tick tock* *tick tock* (see??!?!!!)

Read finish "a Child called it" and i tell you, i feel so mad just reading the book. its about this unstable mother who abused her son. And the things she did to him are so unbelievable! E.g She made him eat his baby brother's faeces, eat back his own vomit, starved him till he had to steal food, made him throw up everyday to make sure he wasn't getting food in school.. that kind of thing!! the horrors! its a true story btw, and it was the third worst case of child abuse in the whole state of California.. I was like so angry at the mother, for doing this to her own flesh and blood. angry at the dad, for NOT doing anything to help the son! so useless!!! argh!!! and just plain angry. yeah, at a book. don't roll your eyes.. n i was almost tearing when i realized i didn't have tissues with me, and in case the pple around me thought i was mad. Laughing by myself is bad enough kay. ha.


mixed

some pple are so selfish!!! heard abt the incident in Paraguay where the owner, in the event of a fire, did not want his customers to get out cos they have not paid for their purhases. So he asked his staff to lock the doors.. trapping the people and killing them. how completely idiotic!! like, who in the world would care about not paying??!! their lives mean more to them!! and because of YOU, many have lost their lives. i hope you're happy! argh!!!

onto better news!


HAPPY 19th BIRTHDAY TO YANA dear!!!!!!!!miss ya!!

Tired Tired Tired

Today=tired+headache+red eyes

Imagine hearing chilldren scream and scream and run all around you, crying here and there. If you don't get a headache, well, you're good.

*shudders* the screaming was like so painful to the ears! ouch. to make matters worse, i was so famished, i wanted to eat up the kids lunch kay. haha. of course i didn't.

so after the long wait, i deided to treat myself to a satisfying lunch at MOS. Was like some zombie the whole day.. reached school, and heard from my fren's class that there was no need to implement any Math lesson after all!! ARGH!!! i implemented it TODAY!! *rolls eyes* the lecturer told us "so early" right.. but we can implement it if we can.. so thankfully the lesson took really quick too. so its not that bad..

Can't remember what the lecturers were about. decided to amuse myself with my camera. Took this during FP, with Ulfah.

the camera was in my bag, as u can see. haha.
Then went for Maths class, and i decided to have fun with the manipulatives.
created this face- Shaiful made another face..
haha nth better to do.

The three of us..
lying on the floor..




waiting in the canteen after class to go home..

the end. HMM.. maybe i'll use pictures more often. haha.. i'm back to my camera mode..
