hot weather

In weathers like this, with rising tempertures, (or so it seems) i am thankful that my hair is short.

I think the weather is going to leave a "so-called" permanent scowl on my face.

Swimming today was not even considered a swim. The pool was being cleaned! Of all the days! These things only happen to me okay. *grumbles* And they sure took a long time to get it done. Sally & I were feeling so hot that we decided to just laze around in the children's pool. At least it was way better than waiting under the shade. Finally when the cleaning seemed more or less done, we jumped in. I think I am so going with them on Monday to chill out at Jurong..

I feel super sleepy, but sleep is the last thing on my mind. Sleeping now in my room without any aircon and breeze is purely suicidal. I'll probably wake up with a splitting headache or I wouldn't even be willing to wake up, "drowsiness" caused by the heat.

Showers no longer help, cos the minute I leave the bathroom, all I have to do is just to walk 10 steps, and in less than five minutes I’ll start perspiring all over again.

So, Sentosa anyone? Heh heh.

driving rawks

Have you ever had that feeling that you were going to sneeze? That you felt the tickling sensation in your nostrils and know that a huge sneeze is coming up? As you take a gulp of air in, in anticipation for THAT sneeze, all ready to go “Ah-Choo!! & Excuse Me” but it NEVER came? But you still felt like sneezing??



Annoying isn’t’ it?

*******

Anyway. Driving was a blast! I finally had the grand opportunity to drive along the main road. In addition, I was also allowed to use gear 3! So now, my fastest speed has thus increased to 50km/h. So as I was happily cruising along the road, this silly Mercedes filtering OUT didn’t want to give way to me initially! Like get out!! I have the right of way! Despite sounding the horn he kept his speed and only braked at the last possible minute. And if I didn’t react in time, I think we would have collided.. or something close to that. *shakes head in disgust* what’s up with people driving BIG cars? Just because your car is big you think so highly of yourself?



Turned out into the main roads, and as we approached the red light, I was so excited! [Since it was my first time being there and all.] So I was all prepared to take off, occasionally glancing at the lights and checking the mirrors. I wanted everything to go smoothly. But Nooo! Upon seeing the green light, as i majestically prepared to "take-off", guess what Geri did?!



Right. She stalled the silly engine. *hands covers face in mock embarrassment* I wanted to dig a hole in the ground can. Its like, how can you still stall the engine at this point of time, after so many lessons? *shakes head* My, how I wanted to laugh. [h-a-h-a]



Thankfully it was only ONE mistake and I drove all the way back to Kallang train station happy and alive. I realized too that I have several problems during driving.

My left turn is better than my right. (isn’t the right turn supposed to be easier?!)
I can’t seem to drive within the lanes!
I take some time to get the car moving.


And as you sit there reading this, you are thinking, “How is it that her instructor lets her drive on the main road?” *shrugs*

********

Smallville starts way too early this season! What happened to it being on the 10pm or 11 pm slots?! Now it’s being pushed all the way to 8.30pm. And I have been missing (and going to miss even more) the episodes due to dance. Nooooo Fairrrrrrrr. Hmph.

*******

What is this!?! Now they want to have not one, but TWO casinos?!?! Gahh.

Free to do what?

After spending almost SEVEN hours on the computer, I have decided that ENOUGH is ENOUGH!!

Not.

Every time I step into my small but comfy (at least in my opinion) room, I’d tell myself that it's high time I get boxes and files to store and file everything away, neatly. And, I walk into my room how many times a day? Countless. And my room looks the EXACT way I left it-Still in a huge mess. Materials from the previous semester are strewn on the floor, and books & un-filed notes scattered everywhere, covering my birch study table. Is it even birch? I can’t even remember the colour of my desktop. (ok, fine that was an exaggeration) Anyway, before I can go do the “dirty job”, I need to make a trip down to Popular to get a decent thick file to compile my entire semester’s worth of notes and handouts. Speaking of thick files, my shelf lacks space already.

I need to go shopping!! I mean, I want to go shopping! Seeing clothes online makes me so tempted to just buy them using a credit card. Then again, I DON’T have one to start with. Duh.

I wonder, how do people arrange the clothes in their wardrobe? I used to colour code them (and realized that I have got lots of black stuffs) but soon switched methods-classifying them according to their ‘styles’-namely, spaghetti tops, racer backs, Tees etc… or am I only the weird one who actually “classifies” her wardrobe and not chuck everything else inside at random?

Chocolate muffins are good and addictive. Agreed? Well actually, ALL muffins are addictive. And for the record, I have finished eating almost the entire box of muffins my mother bought. [Like anyone really cares]

Btw, do say HI to my new purple layout!!

Last but not least, wishing Sarah a very Happy Blessed 19th Birthday!!

Just Shake

Just Shake

Yay. i cannot wait for dance classes later in the evening. And its a DOUBLE lesson, with STREET JAZZ & HipHop! i hope i dun tire my body out or anything, condsidering exercise hasn't been in my "Top 10 Things to do List" for a LONG time.

Boy-oh-boy. How time flies. The weekends are here again. i have never been more glad.. ok i am just typing this for the sake of typing this. You can tell i am bored.. Alrighty, off to do something more productive.

Hello Everyone! Missed Me?

Hello Everyone! Missed Me?
haha i don't think so. (guess that's what happens when u open more than one blogging account)
Anyway. Life is pretty much alright i guess. Yeah right. I am in denial. But i guess many people have their own private problems to deal with.. When u are with people, u show your not so vulnerable self, smiling like everything is perfect. But is it really? Only when you are alone.. then the harsh reality hits you hard.

Am i even making sense? haha what a way to start of writing, when i haven't been writing here for a LOONNNGGG time.

Oh well, time really flies. Year 2 is behind me now, and that leaves us with only ONE more year to go! wow. How soon is that?! (Results will be out on the 21st btw) haha pretty soon you'll see your all your friends getting married and having children. ok. scratch that. that's WAYYY ahead. But well, i guess it's safe for me to say that my future is a blur right now. With a couple of possibilites.. who knows where will i end up? *ponders and wonders*

Ok, enough of all that. Watched "Son of the Mask" yesterday.. and boy was it such a brainless show. Why am i so relieved that i did not pay and to go the cinema for it? hur.

I have yet to watch "The Pacifier"! My Meego!
Got this off mich's LJ. Its on Meegos which is an animated avatar for msn messenger (but not available locally). And if you are bored, try it. =)

Mission 1: Accomplished

Hearing CNY songs on repeat mode can really DRIVE you UP the wall. No kidding.
If that doesn't work, play it at TOP volume.

Result? A headache.

Anyway, the verdict of my Field Practicum 2.2 Language Arts assessment: PASS.

yipeeee!!
-------
The Shrek song is STUCK in my head and its on repeat mode on my comp.
Playing through: Jasmine's blog.
And the song doesn't auto play(loop) on her blog, so i keep clicking "REFRESH". Haha i know, , its quite pathetic. So any kind souls wanna help me find the song please?? haha i Re-composed the tune on my "new" Nokia 2100 h/p. Gosh, composers are like, rather outdated huh.. but at least i have one decent ring tone. kekez.

Sheesh. Exam timatabla is out and it clashes with my FTT!! Of all the times and dates to have my SP paper...

It is you i have loved all along

---by Dana Glover---

There is something that I see,
In the way you look at me,
There's a smile there's a truth in your eyes.
What an unexpected way,
On this unexpected day,
Could it be, this is where I belong.
It is you I have loved all along.

There's no more mystery,
It is finally clear to me,
You're the home my heart searched for so long.
It is you I have loved all along.

There are times I've ran to hide,
Afraid to show the other side,
Alone in the night without you.
But now I know just who you are,
And I know you hold my heart,
Finally, this is where I belong,
It is you I have loved all along!

No more mystery,
It is finally clear to me,
You're the home my heart searched for so long.
And It is you I have loved all along.

Oh, over and over,
I'm filled with emotion,
Your love, it rushes through my veins.
And I am filled with the sweetest devotion,
As I look into your perfect face.

Ahhh.. the SHREK song. Love it! simply beautiful!! =) (as in, the song Princess Fiona hums together with the bird before it exploded. *hurhur*)

Any one has the mp3 for it???

Brief Update

Haven't been blogging here much lately..haha LJ seems a much better place to pen my thoughts. Anyway just want to wish my mummy,

Happy Birthday!!!

been extremly busy this week, and i'm glad to finally have a chance to sleep in during the weekends =). Ahh, the beauty of sleep.

went to have a haircut!! And goodness me, its short. GAHHH!!!!! The hairdresser was commenting and telling me that i could go ahead and cry if i want to. HAHA. Of course i didn't. As if if i cried the hairs would all jump back up from the ground and reattach itself back to my head. And anyway, if it DOES happen it would be quick freaky too la.(okie, where did THAT come from?)

Jody gave my mum his spare phone yesterday..so i have my mummy's phone now!! So hmm, pple, IF u r reading this, can u please tell me ur numbers again? Not here la, in case someone else gets it and starts stalking you. Hurhur. Pretty please SMS me ur name and numbers?? Thanks a bunch!!! haha.
-------
I've got it all, but I feel so deprived,
I go up, I come down and I'm emptier inside,
Tell me what is this thing that I feel like I'm missing.
And why can't I let it go?

There's gotta be more to life...
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me.
Cause the more that I'm...
Tripping out thinking there must be more to life.
Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more.
(Than wanting more)

I've got the time and I'm wasting it slowly
Here in this moment I'm half way out the door.
Onto the next thing, I'm search-ing for something that's missing.

There's gotta be more to life...
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me,
Cause the more that I'm...
Tripping out thinking there must be more to life.
Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more

Missing

i lost my phone!!!

Yesterday!!!

Sigh. oh well. I got nothing to say for myself...

LiveJournal Rawks

I wanna get a Paid Account at LiveJournal!!! I've been wanting too for a long time already actually. And i am STILL considering moving there for good. hur.

Parallel Parking

Parallel Parking is one of the more challenging area when learning to drive.

Don't believe me? Try it out. Parallel Parking Game

Haha Enjoy!!!

I need to have a KitKat

translation: I need a break.

break from all the work, break from all the assignments. Just gimme one day.
haha like real. even so, my mind cannot rest properly knowing i have so much due.Nevertheless, i am sooo thankful that i managed to get away for three days.

well, technically i am supposed to have my one week hols now. Lets just see how much of my hols do i actually spend resting vs the number of hours i spend working. hAa!

Suddenly i feel like i have SO MUCH to do. [Not that i didn't feel this way initially, but i find that i'm slowly losing the drive to work.] Find it quite overwhelming, really. And for today, i just can't bring myself to start on anything! Oh the HORROR of it all!!

All leads to one thing---> I miss my secondary school friends... Most of them are busy busy busy!! And i'm one of those guilty ones. Very guilty ones actually.

*stamps feet* know what?! i am so going to swim on friday. Been wanting to since, what-SEVEN weeks ago??

On a lighter note, i was allowed to drive onto the road today instead of around the carpark! =) Third lesson lined up on thurs!

Fine, thoughts r running wild.. i think i need to let my braincells take a holiday.

sigh

Adults are such complicating creatures.

VroooMmmmm!

OOH! Had my first driving lesson today! *squeals* Uncle Haiteck brought me to the carpark at kallang and taught e the basics.. so i drove all around the carpark.. again and again.. hur. So FUN!! =) I'm learning manual (which makes it more fun) and at first i had some problem in driving straight. I still have a little problem with that..ahhahah. but anyway, there were these two humasn who were walking across the road SO SLOWLY!!! I was so afraid that i would hit them lah!! I wouldn't want to hit anyone on my first drive man.. i can't wait for my next lesson!!! *tralaaalaaaa*

The phonetics test was fairly manageable.. yeap.

Anyway, Sarah sent me these jokes.. some i've heard before but still found them hilarious. I can't imagine how will i react if the children i'm teaching says these to me..haha. Either laugh or cry.

TEACHER: George, go to the map and find North America.
GEORGE: Here it is!
TEACHER: Correct. Now class, who discovered America?
CLASS: George!
-------
TEACHER: "George Washington not only chopped down his father's cherry tree, but also admitted doing it. Now do you know why his father didn't punish him?"
JOHNNY: "Because George still had the axe in his hand."
-------
TEACHER: Now, Sam, tell me frankly, do you say prayers before
eating?
SAM: No sir, I don't have to, my Mom is a good cook.
-------
TEACHER: Desmond, your composition on "My Dog" is exactly the
same as your brother's. Did you copy his?
DESMOND: No, teacher, it's the same dog!
-------
TEACHER: What do you call a person who keeps on talking when
people are no longer interested?
PUPIL: A teacher.
-------

yippee! IGNITES' tmr!!

P.S Flying off to Bangkok on friday.. anyone wants me to help them get anything?? Drop me a msg if u do.. and the rough price for wadever the thing that u want..hur. I'll TRY my bestest to get it for you.... hoohoohoo.... =)

Botanical Gardens

Had some allergic reaction (to dunno what) last night.. it "looked" quite bad so went to see the doc ata 1030. doctor told me i had hives. Got quite a shock considering that i always thought hives were the result of a severe allergy reaction. He kept asking me if i had difficulty breathing and fever...he even wanted to gimme a jab but i said normal medicine would do.. jab?! waste money, unless its really life-threatening.. so anyway, he was telling me that there is no specific cause and that it can just come and go...thankfully, everything went down by the time i woke up. Thanks to everyone and their prayers!

So since i was feelin and looking better, (no more redness) decided i was well enough to go to the Botanic Gardens!! But thought it was rather boring.. so basically just took in the scenery..enjoy nature.. and of course, PHOTOS!! How can we ever forget them?? hurhur. And Eileen and I were MAD today la..(actually we are mad almost every other day). Woke up at 530 and my mummy was so nice to offer to help me cook the sausages.. our group had potluck cos no lunch was provided... had quite a "feast". And i brought so much sausages i thought there would be a lot left. But everyone loved it! hurhur. yay! So it was all gone... Eileen brought a bunch of bannas laH! And we dipped it in peanut butter.. yummilicious!! (u should try it one day, if u haven already tried it-spread it over bread!! *licks lips*)

Well yeah before i forget, the pictures...


Grp Pic!!- i think the water lilies are so nice.. HAHA.

Feel like tourists man..waterfall..

Attempting to act in an indian movie.. hahaha

I feel tempted to climb..

Well, Eileen n i did try to climb some tree. (like monkeys right.. adding the bananas, even more so..haha-SHH.)
ok i am quite lazy to resize the pictures.. hur.

slow man...

HAIYOH!!

NOW i know why the song in my previous entry is sooo familiar. i have it in my comp!!!(already, for a long time) SHEESH> talk about being slow. And to think i still asked Joy to send it to me... haaa. but thanks nevertheless!! =)

anyway, have to wake up super early tomorrow!! And we are going to the botanical gardens!! haha.. should be interesting.. =)

Another thought-Children can either be perfect little angels or little rascals. depends on your day. hurhur. And for some weird reason, i like the naughty kids.

And i seem to be suffering from STM.. HA. *sigh*

All I want is You

ooh i just lurve this song!!! Thankies to Joy- who sang it during youth service, and also for sending me the song)
-------

I’ve waited all my life to be here face to face.
I never knew that I could feel this kind of grace.
The way You show me that Your blood has washed me clean,
Could never be erased; it lives inside of me.

Take me to that secret place,
Where I can only see Your Face,
And nothing else will ever feel this way.
You take away my guilty stains,
The things I’ve done that I can’t change,
It’s only by the Power of Your name.

I stand here in this place,
See the Glory on Your Face,
Taken by the wonder of Your name.
I’m desperate for Your touch,
Never needed it so much,
Cause all I want is You.

When all the things around me have fallen to the ground
I’m always thankful for the love in You I’ve found.
