What has deathly pale skin with something really red and rosy in the middle? Anybody wanna guess?

If your answer was "Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer", YOU'RE WRONG!


It's me! I'm sick, AGAIN! Flu and a rising temperature... Well... Won't be going to school tomorrow... And after all the hard work I poured out onto my composition...

I also missed the past 2 days of church and didn't get to celebrate Joel's birthday... Oh wells... He's coming over tomorrow to give Ayron bible study. Hehe... My gift to him will be germs! BEWARE JOEL, BEWARE!! Just joking. XD

And I really wanna thank God for my friends and family. Just got out of a short prayer meeting where my brothers prayed for me. Cell group prayed for me and Guan Yuan said he would too... Got some well wishes from classmates and outside friends... Fong checked up with me and treated me like a patient saying stuff like; "Drink lots of water and get some rest!' which was annoying but deep down inside quite heart-warming...

And I don't know... Call me crazy but I actually wanna go to school tomorrow... I used to wanna squirm my way outta school but now my mom actually has to force me not to go? Something's really wrong with this picture. Well, with friends like the 1N2ians, how can I not wanna go to school?

I think I got the flu from the Drama Club president. Her nose was SHINING red on Friday... And now I got her flu... Damn... But will have to go to school on Tuesday for the commentator thing. I HAVE TO. Anyways, it's really terrible cause' I can't into close contact with anyone... Any food I can't finish either goes into the trash or to the dog...

Oh man... I'm missing my classmates already...Damn... Alright, I really should get some sleep now... Night readers...

ALRIGHT! Today is Thursday! Second last day of the week!! And today was fricking fun man! Guan Yuan, Shobana, Jodie, Peng Chong and Martin came over after school and we had so many fun!! We watched a movie. Half-way then we decided to play Heart Attack. The one with actions. The forfiets were made by moi! Like, making Shobana eat a sweet which had been dipped in COLD bake beans! And making Jodie drink a really disgusting drink. She couldn't even finish it!

Then Ayron joined us and he and Jodie hit it off immediately! Forfiets were worse then! He made her go outside, knock on our neighbour's door. But then instead of letting her run into the house, he slammed the door shut. She didn't get in trouble though. And Peng Chong kissed Kino on the nose.

Then we spent at least one and a half hours trying to get Jodie to (imaginary) pole dance and do the banana dance. HAHAHA!! It won't be funny in words. It's a "you've got to be there" joke!! Oh wells, we're hoping to do it again next week. Tomorrow is CCA and well, prayer meeting.

Anyways, about school. Today was our first OFFICIAL lesson with Mr See, our new Geography teacher. After that lesson, I counted that at least 5 people came up to me and said: "Eh Belle, I really miss Mr Chia leh!"

Well guys, I miss him too. It'll take some getting used to but I'm sure that we'll come to love Mr See as much as we love Mr Chia! ^^ Mr See is a awesome teacher!! He is really organised and all. Anyways, about the class jersey, Mr Hoon might be against it so we might not be able to get them... So sad... Other classes have already... And after all the work we did... But God can see the desires of our hearts and we WILL get those jerseys!! ^^

Well, Mr Chia left today. He gave us some sweets and the new teacher, Mr See seems really nice! ^^ BUT I'm not saying Mr Chia isn't nice okay?!

Anyways, nothing much happened today. Discussed more on the class jersey. We FINALLY came to an agreement on the design! Also, this Friday, having a prayer meeting at my house with Lokies, Sara, my brother and Shyang Zhi. Having Bible Study too! I wish we could use the living room... It's much more spacious... But you know... Mom's not really for it... I wish she could've been saved during Easter!! Oh wells... Will persist to bring her to church! ^^

Well, got a composition to type! Will blog more tomorrow, okay? ^^

Record time ladies and gentlemen, record time. I've finished my chinese essay, the story, the jersey design I forgot was with Natasha. Putting off the script just to have this time to calm down with everything happening...I'm not complaning, I love being so busy... It's so fun... Moving from one assignment to another. But sometimes I just feel like screaming. E.g. Chinese essay. I was going crazy.

I FREAKING HATE CHINESE!! YOU HEAR ME?! I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT!! ABSOLUTELY HATE IT!! ALMOST AS MUCH AS I HATE THE FREAKING DEVIL!! ARGHH!!! I HATE IT!!!

When I was in that angry phase just now, I so wanted to say butt hole... the more vulgar version of course... Not referring to anyone, just wanting to use a swear word to express my freaking anger...

ANYWAYS, I'm just really tired physically and mentally... I can't seem to find time for anything on days like this... Days when I have so many things to do... Other days are fine. The unfortunate thing is also that today is CCA day which means I come home later...

I found myself almost falling asleep for math and science class... AND TERRIBLE NEWS!! Mr Chia, teacher of my favourite subject is LEAVING!! NO!!! The whole class voiced their objections too!! He wasn't going to be a teacher anymore but a student. He was going to University, just like Ms Bay! NOO!! MR CHIA CANNOT LEAVE!! HE'S LIKE, THE BEST GEOGRAPHY TEACHER THERE IS!! T-T

Oh wells... Tomorrow he'll be coming to class but he won't be teaching. He'll be there to see how the new teacher is working out. Oh wells... Gonna miss him and the games he played with us! T-T Oh dear... Is this how it's going to be like when Ms Bay leaves... -Sigh- Better prepare!

Alrighty then! Oh man!! I can't believe I'm almost gonna be one year old in Him!! Just 13 more days!! That's right!! 7th April is when I'll officially be a one year old Christian!

Alright then... Damn... So tired... In the morning, I had sore throat, running nose, cough and I kept sneezing... But of course, it soon went away... And I can't find my inhaler... Oh, I just found it... I think I'm losing my voice from shouting in class... Ah... The effects of school is finally showing... Although there is a big difference from before I was saved and after.

Before, I would always complain about being tired, wanting to sleep and ask my mom if I could skip school... Now, I don't do any of that. Good improvement, eh? ^^ Alright, gonna go see if there's anything worth doing, if not, zzzzzzzzzzz...

Apologies for not posting the past 3 days. I've been really busy! With school and some other random stuff. Oh wells, there's nothing much to blog about these days... OH CRAP! What the freak am I doing here when I've got a script to write, a jersey to design, chinese essay to write and a story to turn in to one of my 'critics' tonight!! And I haven't even finished the first paragraph of the story!! CRAP!! CRAPPITY CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP!! Alright, gotta blast off NOW!!! And I'm out!

Alright, so today I went to church for Easter. We had 1 friend today. Yun Ru (spelled correctly?) Lokies brought her and she really fits in with us. Really just goes with the flow!! ^^

The drama moved at a fast pace today. And I can't help but feel a tinge of familiarity when it came to the part where Martha and Mary were crying over their brother, Lazarus. He was dying... It reminded me of yet another story. One where the youngest sibling was dying. The middle child stayed by him and took the loss the hardest. The eldest sibling, a sister, just kept looking away. Man... I finally see one of my works ALIVE and in the flesh!

When the part came of Jesus being whipped and crucified, with the music in the background, it really will make you want to cry...

"This is your Saviour. Pure love of heaven. Sent to die for calvary. To bear the sins of all. Rejected, cursed to die. Love silently endured. His blood poured an offering, at the foot of the cross..."

Yeah, that was the chorus. The song is really just BANG! You know? Anyways, I boxed with Yun Ru on the Wii thingy. I WON!! I KOED HER!! WHHOOO!!

We then went to Jurong Point for fellowship. Listened to Ayron, Yun Ru and Lokies make fun of their teachers and all the funny incidents in the classrooms. Then went down to join Cynthia's cell group for a while... Now I'm home... Gotta sleep soon... Waking up early tomorrow...

Dammit... I knew I wasn't really feeling myself and that my legs hurt from the Cross-Country... But I didn't think it'd get this bad... I woke up this morning and when I tried to get up, my legs started hurting...

I can't even walk without my knees buckling under every now and then... I can't bend my legs, I can't lift them up too much... URGH! It HURTS!!

I didn't go to church today... But I will be tomorrow... Hopefully... No, not hopefully... I must. Gotta pass some stuff to a ex-member tomorrow. Stuff being camera, Christian Lifestyle Teacher Guidebook and some other random stuff.

Wells... Not much happened today... So just gonna end this one right now...

I hate my asthma. I'm determined to get rid of it.

Well... I didn't get into Top 10/20/50. I got 76... T-T

Haha! But it was really fun and shorter than I expected it to be. And being an MC at first was um... difficult. Especially since I'm only a Sec 1. But when it came to announcing the Prize Winners, WHOOO! And I also announced the overall Champion House which is... *Drum roll* BLUE HOUSE!! WHOOO!!! GO BLUE HOUSE!!

ANYWAYS, Lokies, Joel, Joey, Kelvin, Pei Ying, Cynthia, Karuna and Shyang Zhi came over. We chatted and watched American Idol, played card games and just basically have a good time! ^^

Well, they've left now and well... Blogging. Oh wells... Too tired to go into details now... No idea why though. Took a long nap after my bath and I'm still tired... Urgh... ZzzzzZzzz

190309 - Not So Typical Siblings - MC again?! WHOO!

Hey guys... I've just finished another story. This one was remarkbly easy to complete. Had it done in about an hour. ^^ By the way, I've got some exciting but nerve-wrecking news about tomorrow!! Read to the end of the story if you wanna know what it is!! Anyways, here is my story: Not So Typical Siblings


"TEMARI!!"
The said person looked up from her magazine, only to take in the scene one frightened and scarred Kankuro, running for his life through the living room. Temari cocked up an eyebrow. "Yes, Kankuro?"
"Gaara!!"

"Oh..." Temari returned to her magazine as Kankuro ran up the stairs to his bedroom. A while later, a drenched Gaara came walking into the living room. He turned to his sister. "Temari, what scares Kankuro the most?"
"Scares him?" Temari put her magazine down for a moment, thinking before answering Gaara, "Well... If his puppets suddenly came alive I suppose."


Gaara just kept his emotionless face. "Thank you very much."


-That Night-
"TEMARI!"
Temari sighed and clicked on her bedside lamp to see Kankuro curled up next to her side. She groaned. "What is it, you jerk... You're messing with my sleep schedule..."
"K-K-Karasu... HE WANTS TO KILL ME!"


Temari tried to contain her laughter. "Mmph... What the freak you talking about, freak? Karasu is a puppet... Puppets don't move on their own without a puppeteer. That's you, by the way."


"Well, explain that to him!" Kankuro pointed fearfully to the closed door. "He's probably right outside, waiting for me to come out of hiding before he kills me! Damn! Why did I have to install those new poison blades?!"


Temari smirked. She walked over to the door. She opened it and low and behold, there was nothing. She closed it again and yawned. "No time for mind games, Kankuro. Just go to bed."


"NO! I'm not returning to my room!! Not with all the other puppets!! WHO KNOWS?! That fricking life-sized puppet is probably back in my room, recruiting the other puppets!!" Kankuro cried. "Temari, I beg of you!! PLEASE! Please let me just stay here for the night... At least until I find someone who can help!!"
"No."
"Temari!! I'm your widdle baby brother!! Come on!"
"No."
"Temariiiiii!!" Kankuro whined.


His older sister sighed. "Face the facts. Karasu is a doll and dolls don't come to life on their own."
"Karasu is not a doll!! He's a killing machine designed as a puppet!"
"Whatever... Look, if you want to stay here, there's gonna be a fee."


Kankuro sighed. "By fee, of course, you mean blackmail..."
Temari cocked up an eyebrow. "Hm... Fine, let me escort you out of the room good sir."
He panicked. "Alright, alright, alright!! What's the 'fee'?"
The older woman smirked. "Be my little servant for the next 2 weeks, obeying my every command."
"TWO WEEKS?! Two weeks of being your servant?!"
"Either that or die at the hands of your puppets."


Kankuro growled. "Dammit Temari..."
"Well, my widdle baby brother?" Temari grinned.
Kankuro sighed. "1 week."

"Hmm... 1 week and you give me half of your daily pocket money until the week is up."
"You push a hard bargain."
"You wanna sleep here or not?"
"FINE!"

Temari smirked. "Well, then good night then, dear brother."
"Wh-What?! Where do I sleep?!"
"There's an extra mattress in the cupboard... I'll supply the pillow and blankets."

-Next Day-
Temari walked down the stairs, greeting her other baby brother, Gaara. "Hey Gaara. Good job of scaring Kankuro last night. What did you use this time?"
"Added in some machines in Karasu when Kankuro wasn't looking. Controlled by a remote control," Gaara smirked sadistically. "Did he wake you?"

"Yeah, the jerk..." Temari chuckled. "Are you gonna let him know?"
"No... Let him live in fear of his puppet. He deserves it for hosing me down yesterday... I was wearing my favourite outfit too..."

"That's a bit mean, don't you think? I mean, he is your older brother. You should respect him and Karasu is his favourite puppet. You gotta tell him someday."

"When he finishes up his 'fee'."
"Oh, you heard?"
"Yeah, was listening in. Hid for a while when you came to open the door."
"Hmm... Nice job in hiding. Didn't even hear you scampering away."
"Thank you."

Temari then got up from her seat and stretched and then yelled, "KANKURO! I'm hungry!! Go and buy some breakfast for me!!
She turned to Gaara. "You want anything?"
"Just some juice."
"And some juice for Gaara too!!"
"Shut up!" a very irritated Kankuro yelled from upstairs. "I'm sleeping!! I'll go out later!"
"Don't forget, dear brother! If it wasn't for me, you'd be dead by now!! Now go be a man and keep to your word!!"

Temari and Gaara smirked.
"This is going to be one sweet week," Temari chuckled.
"But... Unfortunately, all good things have to come to an end."
"True... So let's enjoy it while it lasts."

Moral of this story? Don't suddenly decide that your younger sibling is a plant and decide to water them with a hose. Especially if they are sadistic and have an evil mind. You have been warned...

Okay, now for my exciting but nerve-wrecking news. As some of you may know, I've been doing the morning announcements about the Drama Fest for this past week and on the Friday before the Holidays. Anyways, I thought that I wouldn't have to do anymore talking in front of the school for some time...

How wrong I was...

Alex (Vice-President of Drama Club) gave me a call... She said that Bridgitte, one of the MCs for announcing the results of tomorrow's Cross-Country Run results was sick... And that I was to take her place...

I FREAKED OUT! I'll be doing it with another Sec 4 student, I don't know how to spell his name but it's pronounced as "Ah-Q".

Anyways, he and I'll be announcing the top 10/20 for C Division girls, boys, B Division girls, boys. Then the the House winners. 3rd, 2nd and 1st. And some other stuff too... I was asking so many frickin questions... But I've taken 2 relaxation pills and 2 CordyMax pills... Relaxation pills to calm me down and CordyMax pills to help my stamina for tomorrow.

Hmm... Can't wait!!! ^^ What a privilege and opportunity!!

190308 - Drama Festival

Amazing. Fabulous. Near to perfect. Our Drama Festival. It went smoothly. And it was so much frickin' fun!! We had food & beverages, ushers, crowd control, receptionists... It was something I had seen around church often, but never really participated!!

But this time, I did! I helped with the props, was a receptionist and all. Although it wasn't much and some people said that while Guurpreet and I were doing the morning announcements for the Drama Fest, it wasn't very good, I still feel very satisfied! Knowing that at least I had contributed.

Session by session, finding out who needed tickets and just helping my seniors. Yeah, I spent most of the time during the Drama Fest trying to contain my laughter. Haha! Our Vice Principal and Principal came too! And a lot of other seniors.

Group by group we went. The Drama Fest has really helped me to be more contributing and not just stand by the side and say: "I'm only a junior. My seniors will handle it."

Anyways, tomorrow is the Cross-Country run and I'm so hyped up for it! TOP 10!! I've been saying that in my mind every single time the topic came up. 3.2km. 25 minutes. Can I make it? OH YEAH!

Anyways, I don't really got much to say. So, buh-bye for now! Shall blog about the cross-country tomorrow! ^^

180308 - Lola

Hey guys, I was just thinking, maybe it's time I blog one of my stories. Time to get the public's reviews! Leave it on my taggy! ^^ By the way, this is only the last scene of my story: Lola

Lola

"And do you trust me?" Lola asked
"I do, but-"

"Then let go," she smiled. "If you trust me, let me go. There's a saying Sug, things can break up all kinds of relationships. Rivalry, romance. But, there is one relationship which is said to never be broken. And that's friendship. Sug, if you trust me, let me go because I know and I know and I know that we'll see each other again."

Tears rolled down Kasuga's already swollen eyes. He sniffed. "But how can you be so sure?"
"Just a feeling," Lola smiled, hugging him. "We will see each other again Sug. For now, you gotta be brave and stand. You won't be standing alone of course, I'll always be with you. I promise..."

Kasuga just sobbed. A tear rolled down Lola's face as well. With a small peck to the cheek, she said her parting words,"Bye for now, my dear friend."

With that, she disappeared in a puff of smoke. Kasuga ignored it. He ignored the fact that Lola had left. He ignored the sudden cold he felt when Lola disappeared. But then, he smirked. "Just for now Lola. For now."

END

Alright, be nice with yer comments... That was one of my first fanfictions... So be nice, yea. Yeah, for your information, they are just very close best friends. Never will they be anything more. Kasuga got married later on in life and Lola got a husband... They reunited, of course. And then they kept in touch. And if you're wondering why Lola had to leave, well, you'll have to come and look for me for that answer. PERSONALLY AND FACE-TO-FACE.

It's been a while since I read this one and I felt it was best for me to blog this. It ain't too mushy or feely romance stuff... Um... Not that-ahem- that I write any mushy, feely romance stuff...*Cough*

RIGHT! Tomorrow, Exercise Time. Dying to get started man! ^^

160308 - Please help them!

Hey guys, I'm back from my cruise! Was like every other cruise I've been on, except with nicer clothes, thanks to Lokies! Anyways, caught up with the Cell Group at West Coast Park just now. After they finished their games and all. Was quite sluggish. Got a bit better when we arrived at Jurong East. Had to leave soon after though. Family problems.

But anyways, I'd like to ask you all one question; How would you feel if someone tried to take away your skin?

I read this email from a friend, Sook Yee. She loves animals, just like I do. Anyways, it showed a video of raccoons in China being skinned. They took them out of the cage, slammed them on the ground and tore off their skin. I felt like crying, PUKING! After I saw the skinned, bloody raccoon stare at the camera and die, I couldn't take it anymore. I had seen enough to know what I had to do.

The email was really a petition. I scrolled to the bottom of the screen and signed my name. I was 395. I immediately sent that email out to all, ALL my contacts. About 50+. I was so pissed off. You could see the bones of the raccoon. Bloody and... Man! I wish I could've done more! And even DOGS! Mostly dogs.

I feel so useless. I have no faith. I still think; So what if we have 500 names and we send it to PETA. Can they really do anything? If they can, will they? I feel so... pathetic. I want to do more help! Dammit To all who received my email, please, PLEASE just watch the video and sign your name and forward it.

130308 - BBQ

Today was simply... no, no... Nothing 'simple' about today! IT WAS AMAZING! SO MUCH FRICKING FUN! Yeah! I went to school today, ended at 2. Arrived at Shobana's at around 3:15. They were by the pool. There were drinks, there was a soccer ball (which got lost) and food!

Didn't eat anything though... Some guys later on went to play soccer, I stood by the side and watched. I had no frickin' idea that they were so good! Naufal, Guan Yuan and Ernest can match up with Joel, Bertram and Pepsi I think!

Anyways, then the girls came and tried splashing the guys with water. They did. I got splashed too. Not too much though. Then we all sat down and played "Truth or Dare". And for once since school started, I can say that at least, sometimes, I'm on the same side as the guys now.

Like when people make fun of Ernest and I, at least we're on the same side. At least we know that we agree on something. Or like when we make fun of Xu Hao and Yuan Qi. We're on the same side again. And they asked really weird stuff like: "Naufal, what would you do if Logeys tried to kiss you?"

And the dares were hilarious!! Like: "Ernest, we dare you to kiss the tree" or "Peng Chong, kiss Irving on the cheek"!!

HAHAHA!! Laughed till I got a headache!! Yeah, we played for some time. Then we watched some weddings. FUNNY! Then we all went upstairs for a little while. And then some of them came over to my house. It was quite boring then... Peng Chong, Guan Yuan, Hui Ting and I watched Naruto. Ernest played something called "Street Fighter" or something along the lines of that.

And okay, maybe we didn't do much in general, but in technical terms, it was so much more!! SO FUNNY AND HILARIOUS!! I really, really enjoyed this time with my-dare I say it-FRIENDS!! I actually talked with them just as friends. Not as classmates anymore, but as friends! ^^

Went to school today to see Ms Bay for the consultation. Left at 11. Arrived at 11:20. Came out of school at 11:25. Arrived home at 11:45. ... I spent only five, FIVE minutes in school. And then I went home...

*Sigh* Anyways, Lokies came over. He practiced his singing for the choir audition. And then he left at 7. And then Fong and Abhishek unexpectedly showed up outside my window (again). Then they came in and played Naruto Shippuden with Ayron.

Not much happened today. Gonna go our class blog now. See yas!

103038

I'm nice enough to give a warning; This is going to be one long and wordy blog entry on absolutely random thoughts. E.g. My feelings on Easter, etc, etc.

Well, Easter is coming. And man, it certainly brings back memories. From Expo Hall 8, to Expo Hall 1, back to Expo Hall 8 and to Jurong. Also from having cell group at Joel's, then at Clarke Quay, then at Bertram's and now back to Joel's. Yeah, it was pretty cool.

And I just can't believe that one year has past so quickly! I received Christ after watching the Easter Drama last year. And now... MAN! Time flies!! I mean... WOW! From the Cross CD, to the Destiny CD to the Breakaway! CD. Meetings at Jurong East MRT Station, Clarke Quay MRT Station, Bukit Batok MRT Station to now just meeting at church or at Joel's. ^^

The first time Ayron came back from church, he was saying stuff from Matthew Chapter 7 about being judgemental. I told him he wouldn't last a month. He was so irritating that I said I'd kill the guy who brought him to church. I was dead serious at the time. Next day, April 7th, I went with him. Met Lokies, told them I wouldn't kill him until I saw what the entire thing was about...

Yeah, so I went along. Met Kelvin and Christina. Heart broke when I saw 'Jesus' struggling with the cross. With the song in the background. Yeah... Received Christ that day. But I was right about one thing. Ayron didn't last a month. He stopped talking about verses and about being judgemental. XD

First time I attended cell group. It was at Joel's. Can't remember exactly what happened then. =p Started attending church regularly. Gave my first testimony on 6th July. Was terribly sick. Thanked God for the cell group and for great friends who showed care.

Then Joshua and W331 joined us in... May? Was it? Yeah. A month after being saved. ^^ Yup yup! Lots of things happened. Became better friends with everyone else. Through Emerge! and the Breakaway Camp! How we went to Changi for fellowship. And then now usually Best or NTU. And then getting to know W279.

Yeah, until now. It seemed to be so short! But really, it's already been close to one year. How strange is it? When you think about it, I'm where I am from the very start. But it's different. Still in W363. And now, back in Moblog. Back at Joel's. Kelvin's still my leader. But... It's different. I'm making the birthday cards now. Attending service at Jurong West now too. Our cell group is smaller but more united than ever. ^^

I wonder, how is this year's drama gonna be like? Modern day time or back 2000 years ago? X3

Okay, enough about this. Will be going to school tomorrow. COLLECTING MY ENGLISH COMMION TEST! DAMN NERVOUS!

090302 - Short Enough?

Due to some complaints of my blog entries being too long, I'll keep this short and sweet. ^^

Will be leaving the house soon. For Clarke Quay. Having a Zone Cell Group meeting. Lokies'll be participating in a Fear Factor Eating Competition later on. Can't wait to see him turn green! HAHAHA! Anyways, celebrated Sara's birthday yesterday. Kevin didn't come so we couldn't celebrate his. Went home early after that to welcome some of Mom's friends. Didn't do much with them though. So I don't see why I had to go home. Okay, leaving in 19 minutes. According to my computer. So long peeps!

080308

Leaving the house in a few minutes for church service. Seemed like forever for Saturday to come this week... And let me just thank God personally for helping Ms Bay get into University!! She did the work though... Haha! It's nice to have a teacher who's actually in our age group!! She won't be leaving our school so soon, no way! ^^ Thank God she'll be sticking around for a while longer!!

Anyways, holidays are here! Been very sluggish since yesterday. Just wanna take this free time to sit down to think about current events. Everything happening now is way too much for me to handle. Oh, and on Friday!! There was this very last minute thing!

I just got to my class when Faith, a drama mate from 1E1, came in and asked me to go down, Yee Jeng, head prefect and in charge of Drama club, needed to see me. So I followed her, still with my bag slinged around my neck... Heavy...

Anyways, she needed me to make this announcement ON STAGE about the Drama Festival coming up. ^^ She gave me this script and all... VERY RUSHED!! We went through it about 7 times. Then after the National Anthem and the pledge and some announcements, it was show-time! ^^

Me and Sheryln (another drama mate from 1E1) went on stage and did what we had to do. Fumbled once or twice but overall, it was good. Was freaking nervous man!! It was so rushed. Yee Jeng wanted to call me the night before but some circumstances cropped up I think? But it was a great opportunity. The next 3 announcements will be made by others, I think. If I had another chance to do it, I would.

Well, changes are being made in my life. Some good, some not. So I just really, really, REALLY wanna take this time to settle down a little. To think, whether some changes I'll let stay or I'll chase away. You could say this is very trivial. Well, I'll admite, some of them, yes. But there are also some which could change the very balance of life I have.

Alright, leaving the house for service soon! ^^

There's only one thing I hate more than change. And that's having to get used to it. ... Damn

Had my Chinese Common Test, Paper 2 today... Thank goodness it's over... THE HORROR!! Yeah, was able to answer most questions. I was tempted to cheat. But I was like... "NO CHEATING! IT WON'T MEAN ANYTHING IF YOU CHEAT!!"

Yeah, so I didn't cheat. Praise God! ^^ Then recess. I arm-wreslted some girls. And then with Ernest. But he's a tough guy to beat... So 1, 2, 3, I was outta there! Then played mercy. He won too, of course. Anyways, then had English. Yeah... Then D&T. Didn't do much but finally completed my portable light (which doesn't work).

And then Geography!!! So sad... My team used to be the first, now we're in last place... Boo hoo... NO MATTER!! I care about what's on my test paper! Not what's on the whiteboard! ^^ And Mr Chia gave us some group work over the holidays... Dammit... WHY GROUP WORK?! WHY NOT INDIVIDUAL WORK?! I never was good in groups... I'm better off indivdually... Just great...

And then Math... Blah blah blah... Mr Hoon also gave us a talk on keeping our classroom clean and caused me to miss the early bus... Dammit...

040308 - Tragic Love Stories

The Titanic. Such a romantic and yet sad movie. I was reminded of it today. I watched it during my trip to Bang Kok. Everything was fine and dandy. Was happily watching the movie (except for the obscene parts) but something really gripped my heart in one part. Nearing towards the end. Rose was already in a boat which was being lowered down, on her way to being rescued. She and Jack were just staring lovingly at each other. Jack promised her that they'd be reunited again. But it was a lie. He knew it was a lie.

Half-way down the Titanic, Rose jumped out and onto the ship. Jack saw it, of course. They ran to meet each other and they hugged and etc, etc. You know the rest. Jack was scolding her in between -ahem- kisses. Like; "You stupid girl! Rose, you are so stupid! Why did you do that??" But then, Rose asked him a question. "You would've done the same thing too, wouldn't you?!"

Wow... She gave up her only chance at being saved for Jack. And later on in the movie, Jack gave up his life for her. It was so sad... Ever since I thought about that, I've been singing the Titanic song: Our Hearts Will Go On to myself the whole afternoon.

Another sad tale is Romeo & Juliet. Romeo was only 16!! And Juliet was 13!! As everyone knows, they came from families which hated each other. So, they were banned from seeing each other. And so, Juliet planned to run away with Romeo. So she had this doctor whip her up this formula which would temporarily kill her for 48 hours. 48 hours later, the doctor would come back and dig her up. And then she'd run away to be with her Romeo. They sent Romeo a letter about their plan of course.

Unfortunately, the messenger did not reach Romeo. He thought Juliet had really died. So he went to her grave, weeping, he consumed some poison and he died. When Juliet was awaken from her temporary death, she saw Romeo dead and she stabbed herself. So tragic, no?

Next story. From China; Meng Jiang Nu Tears Down The Great Wall.

Now this is an interesting story. The Husband is named Xi Liang and the wife is, well, Meng Jiang. Xi Liang was told to run away from the Emperor Qin Shi Huang by his parents when the soldiers came for his enlisting to restore the Great Wall. He ran into the Meng Residence where Meng Jiang took him in a her garderner. They fell in love and got married. But the soldiers found out that he was hiding there and captured him for his enlisting.

One night, after 6 months since Xi Liang was captured, Jiang Nu had a dream that he had become a skeleton. She knew something was not right. She had a hard journey to the Great Wall. Where she was then told that a few months ago, Xi Liang had died from exhaustion. They brought her to the spot under the Great Wall where he was buried. She was so hurt, so heart-broken that even her cries took down 10 miles of the Great Wall. When the Great Wall was broken down, she saw Xi Liang's skeleton. She hugged his skeleton and jumped into the mess of the Great Wall and she too died. Where she laid in peace with her husband.

Aren't these stories tragic? Aren't these stories sad? Titanic. If you love someone, ask yourself if you'd give up your very life just for them. Don't you dare just say yes immediately! Think about this for a second. Would you jump into a pit of lava just for this person? Would you stab yourself just for this person?

The same for Romeo & Juliet! Meng Jiang Nu. Do you know what Xi Liang said as he was being taken away? He said to Jiang Nu not to wait for him since his destiny was uncertain. He wanted her to remarry. But Jiang Nu said NO! She wouldn't. I do believe that this story shows commitment and loyalty. But also that Jiang Nu also killed herself for Xi Liang.

What about you? It doesn't necessarily have to be that life partner. But in anything you commit yourself to. Stay loyal, stay faithful and commited!! ^^ Oh and, love it with all your heart! ^^

Had our Common Test Composition today. Wrote about having a disappointment and getting over it and how. ^^ Wrote over the limit but Ms Bay said it was fine, yeah. P.E. Today. Wore my house shirt for the first time today. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah...

Last Drama Enrichment course today. From now on, I'll be able to go home on time on mondays!! ^^ And Drama CCA tomorrow... Yup! Last Friday, CCA, was told to write about our characters. I, of course, wrote about the first character I ever created. In the Anime Realm, Inuzuka Kit.

I've had her in my mind for 2 years!! Whoo! The worksheet asked about their favourite foods, their family pasts and all that stuff. Just writing about it gave me more ideas for stories!! YEEHA! Went home and wrote like a mad man (girl).

Anyways, went for cell group yesterday. Had a great time slacking at Joel's. Then for lunch. And finally, we went over to my house for a movie. The Number 23. Watched it countless times but still nice to watch. Was exceptionally tired and drowsy today... Was asked to write cheers for our class again... Used one of them from orientation and the other 2 from the Breakaway! Youth Camp. ^

010308 - Random

Just a quick blog to say I'm still alive... Although my blog isn't. I have a pounding headache right now. I was sleeping, but my mom woke me up and told me to do something else since my hair was still wet. Soo... Here I am. And why do I have a headache you ask? Let's just say it was a bad combination of me, a merry-go-round and one Bertram and Benjamin Ong...

Went for church service. Saw FIR perform... Whoo... Damn tired man... Anyways, Pastor Kong today preached about serving each other. 1. Servanthood is the key to promotion. 2. Servanthood is the key to authority. 3. Servanthood is the key to destiny. WOW...

Lokies brought a total of 4 friends today, and I was really interested in one. Dickie. The way Lokies described him, yeah it reminded me a lot of last time. When I constantly got in trouble in Primary school and all... Yeah, I told myself that it'd be a blast to the past... And it wasn't. Guess Lokies' description was a bit off. Haha...

Yeah, then we went to the merry-go-round. I sat on it 6 consecutive times... Was like a ride at a carnival or something. Except, it's free. ^^ Yeah, when I was on the merry-go-round, I was fine. But when I got off... I couldn't feel my legs, my head was spinning and I almost vomitted (spelled correctly??) TWICE!! One was inside church, I got into a coughing fit. The other time was outside church while I was waiting for my mom to come fetch me home. The hiccups didn't help either...

It's been a long week for me, really, it has. Oh... So tired... Tomorrow cell group starts at 10:40?! URGH!! Joining with Hui Mei's cell at Joel's place... All in all, it's been a long week. Can't wait for March Holidays... Ahhh... Help... So sore... My back aches from my being pushed against the merry-go-round bars... Head pounding from the merry-go-round rides... Legs feel like jelly... Alright... Hair's a bit dry now... Gonna sleep... Zzzzzzzz
