things are enamoured with

this has been a strange yeari find myself developing new interests that did not intrigue me in the least last time.
for exmaple classy lace clothes which i've previously scorned at.( lace? i mean who wears lace at this age? its all minidresses and bf shirts)
and now two more wants to my list,
sweeney todd dvd
.jpg)
and sarah brightman's symphony
lols, this will be my first time buying music
i dun buy music for i find it stupid.
the music that i like are classical pieces and can be easily downloaded off the net, cuz its not really in demand and its not really marketable.
so haha, first time i'm buying commercial dvds and cd albums
strange year indeed.
i've bought dvds before but mostly are classified as asian productions.
i only own 2 at the moment. the king and the clown from south korean and howl's moving castle from japan.
cant wait to hear sarah brightman sing and watch jonny depp commit his murders. i'm 18 le haha, so can watch it already.
its been a really fun birthday for me
not by others' standards.
spending my birthday sweating, cooking satay and staying up to play monopoly at my friend's house while waiting for the funfair food to cook.
but they're new experiences, however the best part is, i'm no longer alone every birthday
there are ppl with me on my birthday. yan, my mom, my aunt, and the whole of acjc, haha, with me
so its ok. an any unsatisfaction by the lack of conventional birthday staple such as balloons, gifts and pampering are dulled by the sheer amount of work to do on pre funorama day.
so yeah, really happy
and yan popped into sch to see me with his surprise which made it all the more sweeter :)
now i've realise i've recieved the least items of presents this year but they're all meaningful ones, like the video my friend made in commemoration of our friendship, that was really touching,and the self made digital card yan made.
it reeks of effort and i'm really happy, who cares abt physical gifts? its the effort that counts ;)
and i thank my class for the wonderful prima deli cake, and no, we din get food posioning:)
all in all, thank you God for letting me live this wonderful 18 years :)
yippee
i'm legal
but not as if i'm happier
sighs
as u grow older
less restrictions more responsiblities, heavy sia, i dun want..
i've decided what i want for my 21st birthday
an osim full body massage chair
best if foldable
haha
unless it comes along with a free storeroom as well :P
i seriously ned a massage chair, or maybe a live in free masseur.
for that much needed massage 24/7 to aid those aching muscles.
plus my mom can use it too, so it'll be damn worth it dun u think ? XD 2 f0r 1

huge room makeover
Saturday, March 15, 2008
10:34 PM
spent the whole day shifting furniture and repacking my things from my old table to my new one, mom decided to take action and clear my brother's room for rental. so my sister shall have her own desk in my mom's room, while i take over her old desk.it was super spacious,enough to put my laptop and have ample leg room, like wow, compared to my old desk, where my laptop takes up like 5/6 of the table, and den my legs are cramped.
but it was sheer hard work
i worked from morning to afternoon shifting my bed, cupboard and what nots.
den spent another 3 hours or so, throwing away stuff and fitting my stuff into their new premises.
and in the end, all my things were happily settled.
i was left with 4 huge piles of "rubbish" papers, loose foolscap flying around. and i took abt 6 hours to sit down, sort out into subjects, and into test papers and notes respectively. hunt around for spare files, and punch holes.
i hate punching holes.
arrgh..
back breaking work, hunched over piles of loose papers flapping in a hot stuffy room. :(
but its totally absolutely worth it.
i love love LOVE my room and my esp my desk!
some pictures :) ( feel so proud) :)
100 % in all areas?

i'm not a really brave , or confident person.i'm not a born leader.
i lack leadership skills, but i'm struggling to learn.
i discovered that each of us have different responsibilities to shoulder and that no one is going to walk through that experience with u sometimes. because everyone shoulders different things.
and ppl look at u, and expect u to be able to hold up, to be able to cope, to be able to deliver what ur role calls u to play.by urself
i m scared to step out of the shadows into the light to do what i'm supposed to do.
i like to be told what to do..
i'm trying to learn as well..
i'm not a people person.
i dun like to meet new ppl
or initiate things
but i have to right?
thats what the society wants..
i've realized that diff ppl face different levels of stress while facing the same things.
just like how i discovered my siblings may not be thinking or seeing the same things as me since young
oh wells. i want to hide in my comfortable zone
and be silent..
but i cant.
i dun want to be this sort of person who's dull and insipid and scared.
i'm a bad class rep.
i feel really bad that my class is not bonded enough,
it is partly my fault..
only partly.i did put in a hell of an effort
another thing i learnt is, i should stop shouldering the faults of all the people..
its not always my fault.
i'm ok, i have my great points, i want to feel more confident.
i want to, i want to..
100% in all areas.
focus on the present, taking step by future step.
sighs..
its really hard to get rid of my old self, where i start shrinking back into my comfy zone, like while meeting new ppl, freak out, and then immed run home, and eat comfort food, and hide in bed..
time i grew up.
even if i din want to. i know i have to
100 % in all areas?

choir workshop, i know why the caged bird sings
9:38 PM
Maya Angelou - I know why the caged bird singsA free bird leaps on the back of the wind
and floats downstream till the current ends
and dips his wing in the orange suns rays and dares to claim the sky.
But a bird that stalks down his narrow cage
can seldom see through his bars of rage
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing.
The caged bird sings with a fearful trill
of things unknown but longed for still
and his tune is heard on the distant hill
for the caged bird sings of freedom.
The free bird thinks of another breeze
and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees
and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn and he names the sky his own.
But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing.
The caged bird sings with a fearful trill
of things unknown but longed for still
and his tune is heard on the distant hill
for the caged bird sings of freedom.
i first heard of this poem during the improvisation choir workshop with mr stuart wood, it was fun, he is a uk based music therapist and a friend of mrs wilson, and so he was invited to give us a workshop on improvisation, as we'll be singing one of his songs for concert, its called gravity and light and plays around with atmospheric sounds. kinda abstract but refreshing for a change.
beautiful girl by sean kingston

i fell in love with this song, been hearing it everywhere, really liked it but could never find it. so wells, here's itbeautiful girl by sean preston!
Artist: Sean Kingston
Album : Sean Kingston
Song: Beautiful Girls
Lyrics :
You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it's over
Damn all these beautiful girls
They only wanna do your dirt
They'll have you suicidal, suicidal
When they say it's over
Verse 1:
See it started at the park
Used to chill at the dark
Oh when you took my heart
That's when we fell apart
Coz we both thought
That love lasts forever (lasts forever)
They say we're too young
To get ourselves sprung
Oh we didn't care
We made it very clear
And they also said
That we couldn't last together (last together)
Refrain:
See it's very define, girl
One of a kind
But you mush up my mind
You walk to get declined
Oh Lord...
My baby is driving me crazy
Chorus:
You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it's over
Damn all these beautiful girls
They only wanna do your dirt
They'll have you suicidal, suicidal
When they say it's over
Verse 2:
It was back in '99
Watchin' movies all the time
Oh when I went away
For doin' my first crime
And I never thought
That we was gonna see each other (see each other)
And then I came out
Mami moved me down South
Oh I'm with my girl
Who I thought was my world
It came out to be
That she wasn't the girl for me (girl for me)
Refrain:
See it's very define, girl
One of a kind
But you mush up my mind
You walk to get declined
Oh Lord...
My baby is driving me crazy
Chorus:
You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it's over
Damn all these beautiful girls
They only wanna do your dirt
They'll have you suicidal, suicidal
When they say it's over
Verse 3:
Now we're fussin'
And now we're fightin'
Please tell me why
I'm feelin' slightin'
And I don't know
How to make it better (make it better)
You're datin' other guys
You're tellin' me lies
Oh I can't believe
What I'm seein' with my eyes
I'm losin' my mind
And I don't think it's clever (think it's clever)
You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal, suicidal.
haha, super super happy now :)
ok, back to studies :)
i'll be going to my ah ma's house for her birthday party, i doubt she stills rmbs me :(
term exams blues..
Wednesday, March 05, 2008
5:34 PM
sighs, terms is officially over, not really, finished all the papers, physics and chem spa yet to come. but almost finished...gp was v ok, econs ok( i had better pass or else...), maths was hmmm, ok as well.. tho i'm guiltynot studying much....
the problem lies with chem and physics, i'm praying that i pass one of them or i'll be in ssp all my life...
chem was not say terrible, but numb.. i did not have time, and my mind sort of blanked out on section c, worth 15 marks. it tested a section of the notes i had ligtly glimpsed through, so i couldnt write much in depth...
like so wasted...
i hope i can pass.. please please please.. just 30 marks will do, at least i finished section b....
i think this time round will be nerve wracking as well...
physics tested on fundamentals
sadly , i din do too well, what a horrible pity, for this is a easy paper...
arrgh!
so i managed to finish the paper with time t spare, but barely, cuz i forgot a lot of things, and after calming down and trying to recall real hard did i manage to complete them.....
thirty marks, once again, just let me get 50 percent.. i swear i'll work hard like no body's business..
sighs...
i really suck in science.
i dun mind doing the language papers at all..
and i really want to learn how to use photoshop, i dun believe i cant master it..
