Eagles Wing and PBJ picnic




Obscene? I was wearing shorts, and it got cold...so then kind Lee offered me his jacket, and I wrapped it round like a skirt to keep my legs warm. How innovative!



Beware of the guy in the center. His name is Shiro, by the way.
Raj, Wen, Ingrid, Charlotte, Yuting and Wyna


I think I outstupid-ed myself today.

Who runs into a tree?! Well, I ran into a tree. And got some nasty cuts, all on my left, so now one side of me feels disabled.
Cell Picnic today was fun though, despite suffering a casualty barely half an hour into the picnic.

The sun sets really early these days. I was so not dressed for cold weather, because when the sun was up it was really warm.

Completed my first knitting project today(finally...) How timely, just one day before the "official" start of winter. Now, to just figure out some way to end the scarf properly. Where art thou Monty??

This weekend shall be Bio related. I've got so many Biology things to complete, not to mention my Biology lecture tomorrow.......


I miss you, but nobody needs to know.

I should really stop blogging so often.

It's Thursday! Weekends are here once again! This time, my weekends are seriously going to f-l-y, fly. I'm going for a biology seminar, behold the new and improved extremely hardworking me. I sure hope it'll help, wanting to do good for Bio, is really for very personal reasons.


Shiro isn't very good at charades rules, I just found this picture funny, everyone was cracking up at Shiro playing charades.

Just a random picture that I like.

Talking about pictures, I was out at QV with Monty, Jinli and Mush just now and Monica's webcam can do absolutely the most wicked things ever. It was so amusing. Definitely much more entertaining than studying about DNA.

I'm so confused, I don't think I like myself very much right now. Why do I get placed in positions like these?!

Girls


I miss you all so much. Girlfriends for life, yes?

This day, I feel so stressed my eyeballs hurt. What if, all of a sudden, enough just isn't sufficient, and good just isn't best. That's when we start feeling bitter and empty and jaded, forgetting the peace of God, forgetting that all we have is always enough, sufficient, if we could only see.

I wish I wouldn't feel that way.

So lately I've been smiling at perhaps, all the wrong things. Somethings make me smile and leave me happy for the rest of the day. It may be wrong to be this way, but everyone needs something worth going to school for, worth smiling about, worth dreaming about, worth working for. I'm no exception.

Let it be a better day.
Surprise me, say yes, you will, I can.

Ying Thai


What if God was one of us?

Everyone who saw me today had a taste of that line.

I should stop getting one-liners stuck in my head. All throughout chemistry and biology trial, the line "only got four minutes to save the world" repeated and looped and sung in my head. Hugely distracting.

36 more days. One thing I'm so looking forward to is GSS. I miss SBS buses, and TV MOBILE, and television in general. Here's a happy image, me on the couch, grandma next to me, grandfather on the side sofa, and we're all watching drama serials together. You have no idea how much I miss drama serials(yes george, the channel 8 ones which you think are crappy), I miss drama serials so much it's making me sad right now!

My right shoulder is aching badly. I'm kinda "sweating", no idea why. I appreciate how you're being concerned, but honestly, I don't have an answer for you, and I'm starting to feel afraid of you asking me again and again. What I really want right now, I just need a friendship which is built purely on chemistry. I see that budding between us, please...

Monty and me! And I realise this is Img 8888. What an auspicious number! But really, I think all that auspicious theory is just a load of bull.
This is what Sash and I do during Methods.

I shall sleep early tonight. Monday tomorrow, again, and it's going way too fast. Just the way I like it...perhaps

Cel-a-brate

Celebrate at cell.

Today was Celebrate week at cell. So, we split into two, I think it's kind of sad, but like Esther said, we should see it as a gift, John 15. I really like cell, at least it's full of genuine friendship and fellowship, and people approach you plainly because they want to, no ulterior motives or complications. After one bad experience this year, I'm so glad for cell. Ingrid's my new cell leader! Our new cell's name is tentatively Peanut butter and jelly, or PBJ for Powered by Jesus. Cool?

Watched a video on transformation and had discussion. My discussion group was hilarious.

Me: Er, it's a long story, I don't wanna tell grandma stories...
Lee: huh, what happened to your grandma?
Me: GRANDMA STORY!

Lee's no longer in my cell after splitting, that's sad...

All in all, it was a really great time at cell today. Singing songs(Esther is really funny, I don't know how to describe it), dancing...games, and the awesome potluck dinner.

Shiro taught us this really funny japanese game. It is so funny and it's kind of entertaining too, played in big groups. He looked like some pokemon, rattling on in japanese and Suyan had to say, "If you speak in japanese you're disqualified".

Anyway, it really was a good time, and thank God the ice-breaker game I had to co-ordinate went really smoothly, with Ingrid helping me.

On a rather more depressing note. The real exams are coming right up!!

Things haven't been going all too smoothly with a particular someone. I'm really at a loss. On one hand, I don't wanna say anything, I don't want another fight, another pointless round of finger-pointing and hurtful lashes. On the other hand, I feel that once again, we're slipping apart. You know what slipping apart means?

My mind is so conflicted. I need to sort it out, what words to say? How to say it? I'm sorry, am I saying it early, or will it just be a repeat of what happened.

A man for All Seasons

I think I like A Man for All Seasons. Some phrases don't seem to leave me, like the King saying, "I dance superlatively!". Maybe "superlative" shall be my new favourite word.

The Bio trial today was expectedly tough. The last question "blew my brains away". Should've put the reading time to more good use, but no use crying over spilt milk. Just trust God. Still, it was a superlative day. No sarcasm, it really was a superlative day. Some tweaking to be done in my mind, but all in all, SUPERLATIVE!

One exam tomorrow, and I'm off the rest of the day! How nice, if I didn't have to catch up on all that Specalist homework. Drats.

Question of the day! Is DNA translated or transcripted onto RNA?

Anyway, whatever it is, I love DNA in real life, hate it in Biology.

Can you believe it friends? It's almost June now, and I'm going back to glorious food and warm sunshine in no time at all! I've got like a whole mindful of things I'm intent on doing.


Jinli is so funny. Monica took this picture through the glass of the enclosure at the pet shop. Oh the good old March break seems so faraway while we're facing exams.

So why don't we go somewhere only we know?
Time to shut up and revise chemistry. Let's make Doctor Allnutt proud!

Procrastinate

Edit.

I realise this is extremely random. But as I was doing my bio notes, there's this part about snake bites, those who do Bio will know what I'm talking about. AND!!! My dream last night just came back to me, I dreamt of snakes AGAIN! I want to stop dreaming about snakes please. I don't care if there's someone betraying me. It was quite a cool dream actually, I had a pet snake and it ate some animal, and then stupidly went out to lie in the cold so its enzymes were inactive and etc...again, Bio students will know where I'm heading. From Mrs Latham's Powerpoint to the Zoo teacher's short section on snakes.

Anyway, argh, enough about snakes, back to biology notes.

**


Toes in the sand..

Honestly, I was always neutral in my heart but my mind was not. Did that make sense? Perhaps not, after all it's always the heart that leads with the mind protesting.

From your email, I guess you read my blog. Which is kind of scary, plus how did you even know my email. But anyway, I accept what you said in your email, fully, and still, you obviously don't know me very well because sending in an email two days later doens't make any difference. I'd have forgotten everything by today. Believe me or not, I do not hold grudges, and trust me, I did not have time to spend waking hours thinking malicious thoughts about you or being mad.

Today was full of procrastination. I need to complete my Bio notes, NEED TO!

It was freezing, freezing cold yesterday.

I need to stop spending money unnecessarily, so today I put everything in my wallet in for offering.

Is it just me or do sausages here taste really different, especially those pork ones. They're kinda gross actually. Pity, because I really like sausages.

As usual, my weekend is gone before it could make an imprint in sand. Two more days to trial exams. I guess trial exams aren't a big deal anymore, after all, it's just a trial.

I realise it's been exactly 4 months since I came. 18 Jan till 18 May. It's probably the quickest four months of my life, and probably the most "eventful" too. I've actually survived thus far, I remember February, March as the worst months.

DREAM A LITTLE DREAM OF ME



These days my most said phrase is "aiyo".

Music conert yesterday. It was pretty good. Shall post some videos another day, watch out for that!!

The whole process of going to and leaving the concert was hilarious. Firstly, Jinli and Monica "brilliantly" decided to take no heed to my words, because well, they never do anyway, but this time, it turned out that hey, I actually knew what I was talking about!! Hooray! But anyway, we boarded the wrong tram, instead of taking the North Coburg bound tram. Still, thank God for Monica being Monica, you know, alert and all, she discovered we were going the wrong way!

It was pretty crazy, for some reason, I felt really high, I found everything funny and made everything turn funny.

So we were "chilling out" at the tram stop waiting for the North Coburg tram, even though our destination was only one stop away, very much within walking distance. I was belting out random songs, trying to make Monica happy but failing miserably.

FIddler on the Roof by the Mufy Choral class was so entertaining, especially the song "If I were a Rich Man". The cheorography was hilarious. After the concert, Jin Monica and I were like drunkards imitating that funny dance step.

Halfway during that long walk back, I promise you, my hips felt like they were going to fall off. Just my right hip, perhaps I sprained it or something, I kept telling Jinli and Monica that I might die, and they just laughed like lunatics. We were all laughing like lunatics, it was just a crazy night.

Wanted to pop by Max Brenners or something, but it was closed. So we stood on the corner of Lt Lonsdale and Elizabeth "chilling out". It's a really random place to be standing, we were in the way of everyone who wanted to walk past so finally we sat down on a bench, and talked about random things

Anyway, that whole hyper night really drained all my energy. I could barely get out of bed this morning, but I just suck. Slept at eleven fortyish and I couldn't get up at eight.

Maybe it's just me

I can't stand all the bitching around me.

I don't want to know, whatever you aren't happy about, whoever stepped on your poor delicate toes, or whoever made you upset. Because, you know what? You're just as bad as the people you talk about, if not worse.

I'm sick of people being overly judgemental. I hate how this stupid college building makes me feel so suffocated, there's no place to just be alone and have peace, peace away from all that spewing poison.

If you think I'm refering to you, then it probably isn't you. Honest. I know I bitch too and all sometimes, but this is honestly over the tops. This is unique above all. People usually bitch about things they don't like and obviously don't do as well, this is about someone bitching about something he/she does as well, and does A LOT for that mater. The best part? He/she acts like such an angel. Ugh, I can't describe it.

This makes me miss the Fairfield campus so badly.

More Cadbury milk chocolate, more Mars bars, more Kinder Beunos, I'm feeling so down.

Preternatural


So, I visited the 4e Blog. Now it's all spam and somewhat like a "haunted blog", unused, unmaintained, left to ruin.

Still, I laughed so hard at some of the old posts. Especially at the Charlie videos, Fast, Slow, Original, all the versions possible, and also the mocca advertisement, "and the bathroom over there!"!! Caleb sounding like such an auntie, "u noe i see the 4F blog, damn nice sia their posts, i wanna cry leh, i listen graduation song and read, wah sia, power emo. very meaningful posts. NOT LIKE OURS! CHARLIE CHARLIE wad the pong. seriously man, we need proper posts no CHARLIE slow and fast motion! omg man seriously." He sounds like, some Mother Hen. I don't know.

Anyway, all the posts brings back many fond memories, from the prayer meetings to the 112 days, and all the different personalities in class. Caleb's EMO overflow which "pissed" the class off ahah!

I really miss studying with the class..and I miss the class and our teachers.

I can still vividly remember how in 112 there would be people like Cuifen, Leon, Mark, Nat, Yibei, Twisties, Shumei, Wenjie, David, Kueider, even Eugene, and some more others. It was lots of fun, and sometimes we would play the charlie video on the over head projector and everyone would just be laughing. Ah, the good old days. I wish I could go back in time, I miss Fairfield so much.

It's sad that I'm no longer friends with two of those people there, when we used to be such good friends too. But I'm over all that now..after all, when you've tried everything to bring things back to normal, and nothing works, there's no point holding on.

Still, it's sad, and now when I think about it, I'm wondering, where did we go wrong?

Just so you know, I missed your friendship.

My weekend flew past again, I barely did what I started off wanting to complete. It doesn't even feel like two days have passed. Four more weeks to unit three exams, if every weeks going to fly by like this, I'm in deep waters, there wouldn't be time to study.
Summer, it's been two years since I last saw, that lonely smile...

Awesome in this place

So blessed, I can't contain it.
So much I've gotta give it away.
Your love, has taught me to live now,
You are, more than enough for me!


That song is stuck in my head after church today.

Overslept this morning..resulted in me not achieving much in terms of my ever-growing to do list.

See I wanted to wake up at 10, and do some of my work till 1. That would've been the perfect plan, but unfortunately, perfect is not always attainable. So that would've been ideal, but what really happened? Well, I woke up at 1230, two and a half whole hours after 10, and at 1 the Winata's came over for lunch. Result? No work done. They stayed till about half past three. So I spent the next 45 minutes making a Mother's Day card, and then before I knew it, it was time to go to church.

It's scary how my whole day just passed.

Shiro's birthday dinner after church, he's so old already ar....21!

Oh, something really cool during the dinner! I sat next to this girl who was from another cell, Youth Fire or something like that. We started talking and all, and guess what! We were both from Fairfield, and from the BAND! We were both so stunned. Anyway, it was really cool meeting her. From the start we got along pretty well already, before we even knew we were from the same school AND cca.

Okay, I should shut up and sleep now.

Made my week

Theodore just sent me the best picture I've received the whole of this week :) It kinda made my week, my year, my term, whatever. I'm so touched I think I nearly cried.


I miss Lionel and George too :( There's no one to go to the toilets with, or sit around doing nothing with, or talk on the phone with, or just, being silly in class with.

Of course, the clique. I printed out a picture of us all wheepee! Put it in my pink file. AND, you too, of course.

This just tells me that,

1. I have spoken to the wrong person; I shouldn't have thought everyone would be like you
2. It's time to stop having wayward thoughts.

I wonder if this time round things will be constant. Everything's always fleeting past, changing before I can say Dearie me.

Can't think of much to blog about. I'm just blogging in my mind. All I can say is, now the only thing that keeps me going to school in the mornings is Sasha and maybe Dom. Start the day right, end the day right.

During the day, I read emails from Grace, Daniel and Samuel and I started laughing to myself, because of certain phrases and well, just the way some things were said in the emails. I think re-reading emails makes me happy..there are all these precious words and comments that are timeless, they make you laugh yesterday, today and forever.

My mom suggested taking "family" photos out of the blue.


I miss my dad too, and his cooking.

Man for All Seaons

Very packed week coming up. I know I know, so what am I doing online right, nevermind everybody needs a break once in a while.

Specialist Math homework is piling up crazily. I've been spending 50% of my time at home on Math homework :( Biology test on thursday, I'm not so fussed about it, it isn't counted towards the total score anyway, but it'll still be nice to do well just so as not to disappoint Mrs Latham etc. After this I'm going to read chapter six.

I hardly have time to breathe, but I waste a lot of time doing random things. Geez. That sucks.

Excursion to the Playhouse today to watch A Man for All Seasons. I expected more characters, it was sad, I wanted to see Chapuy so badly. Chapuyyy. But the excursion was fun, I mean, anything that allows me to skip classes like Methods is fun.


We're connected by Jinli's scarf. Just check out Jinli's face in the background, hahahha!!! She always manages to somehow get into pictures and her expression is always priceless!



Vanessa is so short! :)

Oh my, look at Dom, he's just too tall.

I'm really quite tall too, well taller than what is seems to be in the picture because I'm not standing quite so straight in the picture....I'm tall!! But I wouldn't mind growing shorter.

Bad hair days. Ugh, It's 950, supposed to go off 5 min ago. Tomorrow's gunna be horrible with a capital H, Double periods of Chem AND Specialist :/ Multicultural should be fun though !!!

Crazy Weekend

My weekend has been crazily packed.

Shopping with Sasha on Saturday. No sizes, incredible Hulk and budgets all add up to a fruitless shopping trip. I mean, yeah I got things I don't exactly need like stockings and nail polish, but the main task was far from complete.

I just can't find the perfect jacket. I guess I'll have to stick to incredible Hulk boohoo. Anyway, shopping with Sasha was fun! I mean, hahah, Sasha isn't fun :)


The more I look at this shoe, the more I really like it.



Went down to Ikea today..finally got my tables and everything. I feel so organised and neat at the moment, while my table is still barely one day old. Feels good to be neat for a change. Wonder how long this will last though.


My weekend is over already and I feel as if it had barely started. This is bad. I was looking forward to school, but suddenly I get that nauseous feeing again, like I really don't want to go to school, but at the same time, I don't know. I miss Fairfield tons. And tons. And tons, more. These days it's the Band memories that keep flooding back. And back. And back. I start to feel I never treasured the time spent in band quite enough, what I wouldn't give to go back to those days again.

I miss my grandparents so much too, they've been such a large part of my life, especially since the past two years.

I was so sick on my birthday last year, where would I be without them? Maybe dead.

Can't hold back

Hold on, wait a minute, I think I've got it, what I have is nothing.

It's best to not expect anything then we would never feel any disappointment.

That was just random. I've been gloomy these days, perhaps it's the lack of chocolate, perhaps I've just been thinking too much, perhaps just perhaps, I'm thinking what I shouldn't.

I'm so close to slipping back to what it was, but in any case, I'm glad that today I decided against myself, and thank God once again, it all worked for the better still.


Carpe Diem, seize the day.

Another week has just flown by, five more weeks to unit 3 exams! Seven more weeks till I'm getting on a plane. I dreamt of a typical secondary four day I would have last night. There was school, there was sitting in the band room, there was the toilet trips, there was the happy feeling of recess in the canteen, there was everything. Perhaps that's what made me reluctant to get up this morning. Still, I did.

Shopping with Sasha tomorrow, hopefully I'll find the perfect jacket. I promise, I'm not going to be sidetracked and tempted to buy anything else.

Maybe the whole saving money issue is making me gloomy. It sucks to have not a penny in your wallet, and everywhere around you is glorious food that suddenly looks so much more appetizing and delicious. Can you believe I hardly even bought chocolate, not just while I'm saving money, but since I came! Today was like maybe my tenth time or less eating chocolate like snickers and stuff along that line. Dom bought chocolate for his concubines because we were so nice and accompanied him to the post shop! Haha.

I now have two giant boxes of cereal in my home. On second thoughts now, I really think I should'nt have gotten it just because it was on offer! Ben and Jinli were really good at convincing me to buy cereal, maybe they should get a job as cereal promoters!

This is such a random blog post and there's nothing left to say. Farewell folks.
