I believe - Fantasia Barrino
"Have you ever reached your rainbows end
Did you find your pot of gold
Ever catch a shooting star
Tell me how high did you soar
Ever felt like you were dreaming just to find that you're awake
And the magic that surrouds you can lift you up
and guide you on your way
I can see it in the stars across the sky
I dreamed a hundred thousand dreams before,
Now I finally realize.
You see I've waited all my life
For this moment to arrive.
And finally.. (yeah)
I believe in the impossible
If I reach deep within my heart
Overcome any obstacles
Won't let this dream fall apart
You see I strive to be the very best
Shine my light for all to see
Cause anything is possible
When you believe
I can see it in the stars across the sky (Yeah)
Dreamed a hundred thousand dreams before
Now I finally realize (Now I finally realize)
You see I've waited all my life
For this moment to arrive
Finally, finally
I believe..
Finally I believe (ohh yeah)
Love keeps lifting me higher
You ought to try it for yourself
Lifting me higher
Love keeps lifting, love keeps lifting me higher
Higher, higher, higher, higher
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Love keeps lifting me higher
Higher.."

cip yesterday was good in a way, and disastrous in another.
only 5 people turned up for flag-selling yesterday, and outta this 5, only 3 were on time! i swear bp is gonna announce to the whole school when school starts that t04 had bad attendance and so on. afterward, that pig will breathe down our necks. urgh.
despite the bad attendance, duration of cip was good cos nana and i went to catch < day after tomorrow >, the movie was damn good! it was considered "holiday homework" from lesterlow. the computer generated effects are whoa! and there is a emotional part besides all that disasters and damage.. family values. (: but there was this absolutely annoying couple from some symphonic band from dontknowwhere that kept making out throughout the movie.. could hear them admist the sound effects, and that is verrry loud. wanted to see what school they were from but they left before the movie ended. they paid like 17 bucks just to make out? wtf. went to town after the movie and saw quite a few things i wanna get for the sake of getting.. like that black roxy surfboard-shaped pencilcase and more footwear and bags!!! ahh. nvm, shall bear till 30th june and then ill spend till my mum goes bankrupt. heh.
met angel and szuling for lunch before flying down to the science centre for some briefing. the speaker sounded as though she was speaking to one person instead of one lecture theatre and although the movie was fimed last year, the quality looked as though it was flimed like a decade ago. smgs was there too, and there was this girl who was helluva rude. the typical loud hailer and thinks she is ohsocool. and she kept burping so loudly. grrr. luckily i wont have to work with her during my time at the science centre.
dinner at gardens before coming home and conked out till 2215 before watching that korean drama and only started work at around 1am. supposed to send my dad to the airport this morning at 6 but having slept at 4+, i couldnt get up.. so i only saw the sun at noon today.
time to learn about rocks and landforms.

gp paper today. wasnt that difficult, but i dont think ill be achieve 34.5/50 again. essay was pretty okay, did "social inequalities can be overcome by education. how far do you agree with this statement?" practically wrote whatever i memorised from humangeog. so hopefully, i can do well.
going out later. hopefully can do some serious shopping besides groceries. afterall, im not gonna be part of the gss till 29th june. so i need some things to keep me in the mood for studying.

no school today cos we are supposed to be preparing for gp tmr. have no idea where to start, but im sure hoping that i can do as well as the last comprehension practice i had. 34.5/50 is damn good in my standards.
in a way school hols are here, but it is nowhere
near a holiday. two weeks outta 4 are taken up by cip and ltc, left with 2 weeks to try and cramp everything into this non-existent brain of mine.. i predict loads of moodswings, so steer clear! and im sorry if i cant meet any of you for good ol' catching up, cos i really cant afford the time, especially to
nette. we'll have to postpone. :\ but i think this sacrifice is worthwhile (i hope). im gonna work towards all a-level passes even though my cas dont reflect that goal.. i must!
kk, need to get started now. i can feel the studying attitude coming on, dont wanna lose it and let today turn into an unproductive day.

friday
t04 rawks!!
sports carnival. senior and junior t04 came together and participated in the games event - netball and we came in FIRST!! woohoo! we rock man! took part too but didnt manage to get on court and play, was a little mad initially but we won in the end, so heck. feel bad though, received a medal as well although i didnt play. :\
went for lunch with 2t04 for lunch at pasta mania.. was starving by the time i reached ps.. shared 2 plates with hema. by the time i left ps, i was so darn full. hung around a little and went home to prepare for the night.
picked giam up from her place and we headed to ritz for dinner. it wasnt that fantastic. but it was fun nevertheless. giam got a little high eating the oysters though. took photos and we left for hotel nigara (?) for good oldies and wine. stayed there till about one before coming home.
reached home at about 0130 and conked out flat till the same time in the afternoon. slacked for the rest of the day and night.
today
woke up super early and picked giam up before heading down to kallang for the newpaper big walk. hema and fel persuaded me to go and in the end both didnt turn up.. one has a swollen ankle, the other got food poisoning. haiz. and while cimbing over the railing, my foot got stuck and i fell. -ouch- i think my leg is gonna bruise pretty badly.. hurts when i prod it. but at least it aint as bad as this lady who fell while climbing and hit her head on the road.. loads of blood but i think it isnt very serious..
the heat was unbearable i tell you, luckily we walked the shorter route (5km) so it wasnt that bad. went down to macpherson (?) for prawnmee afterward. its DAMN GOOD! -yummy- must go there another time. after eating the noodles, we went to the kopitiam opposite and had another round of food. so full that giam and i couldnt get up to leave.
took a cab to giam's place and hung around before meeting my cousin at j8.. didnt get my bag from bloodbros in the end but, BUT i got my
clinique happy formen! yay! simply love the smell.. even my brother is eyeing it now. (:
damn sleepy now. woke up at like 5+ this morning. shall go take a nap before i get started on that pile of homework i have waiting for me..
nights.

i love ya all!
thanks to all those who have smsed me or wished me happy birthday today.. its much appreciated. (:
went out for lunch at nydc with some of my classmates since rajan's extra lessons were postponed. was walking past mango at lido when szuling wanted to go shopping, so i held onto her hands and said "no no no" but i kept pointing to the tops inside and said "hey that top is nice.. oh that top too.. eh that pink one is damn nice!" she nearly murdered me. haha. she says im always so sadistic towards her.. when she gets into trouble or does something silly, ill always laugh at her. heh. ya, so we ordered our food and had loads of fun gossiping and made helluva noise. i wont be surprised if someone complained and bp wants to see us all tmr. haha. all of us wanted to have dessert..
mudpie yummm! but were all too full to order. maybe we can do that on the next class outing.. must plan.
flew down to amk library in a cab with a driver who didnt know how to get there, but luckily managed to get there in one piece, to meet my
bestie! then we walked to the hawker centre and had the famous "aj ice kachang". its hugeee i tell you. but we managed to finish it after 45 min. loads of red bean and corn in there.. (: we went to bishan afterward, and i showed her that lovely espirt bag. she thinks its not bad too. im just waiting for bimbo to get it and deliver it to me. heh.
overall, i had a great 18th birthday although i dont feel as though ive aged another year. thats good right?
special thanks to :
nanasan - who came down to the track so that she could be the first to wish me happy birthday. its alright that you couldnt join us this afternoon, but this also means that now you really
owe me a neo! :D
t04 - had a great lunch with you guys and thanks for planning to get me a cake although that didnt materialise. i love you guys! (:
guniang + denise + az + sunita + hema + giam - thanks for the birthday msgs. (:
bimbo - although the bag aint in my hands yet, loads of thanks for "remembering" that its the 18th today and that its my birthday.. still think i tried to cheat you.. xP but lemme thank you in advance once again. (:
one more thing.. i would like to congratulate
jean for getting into sc. you can do it girl! -big tight squeezing hug- (:

my class is now having double gp with the pig while im at home blogging. haiz. would have gone to school even if i had slept for 2 hours, but somehow my brain refused to switch off and i was awake till the time i usually get up to go for my run. ya, at 0545, i was still wide awake. even said morning to my mum when she got up at 0500.
missing school today has its pros and cons, i get to miss gp and pe. but unfortunately, i also missed taking my geog test (i memorised half of my essay), geog lect, caretaker, and econs. quite a bit actually. so i gotta be hardworking (ya right) and get some studying done, if not, at least file my worksheets which are lying around everywhere.
off for lunch - instant noodles, then showbiz before i start work.
toodles.

choc buffet at fullerton was so-so... ill only recommend the place if you like choc fondue with loads of strawberries/mangoes/pineapple and the shortbread. otherwise its a waste of money. one table had like 3 gay guys and we were saying about how they'll get high on the chocolate and be all kinky afterward. went down to
embargo afterward.. only had 2 drinks and home sweet home.
guniangs : had a wondeful time last night.. hope you 2 liked your belated presents.. lets organise something for the dec hols eh? (:
pammie - dont know if you'll see this but hope the competition goes well and have fun in america!
this whole weekend was wasted. so far, ive only completed one tutorial, havent done my aq nor memorised my essay for tmr's test. im screwed.

here i am sitting at home while my classmates are dying of pw in school. hardly surprising.. who wouldnt? afterall, they have to see chan for like five and a half hours today. but instead of coming back straight after school (ie 1230) i decided to hang around and rot, thought wait till nanasan finishes at 1630 and cross the bridge with her, but in the end i ended up getting chased home by jasmine. so ya.
just hung up with my
guniang. love ya! most prob meeting up tmr night for dinner or some sort. cant wait to see her and pammie and bimbo. (: right this moment, its okay even if i dont get any presents for my birthday, cos i rather have my lovely friends with genuine feelings than loads of gifts without any love.

time and time again
i tell myself
to learn the lesson
and stop falling in
but each time
i involuntarily
let myself get too deep
you make me smile
you make me cry
telling myself repeatedly
aim high
fall hard
but do i listen
nah
thats why i turned out this way
hope.
i hate you.
not in the best of moods now.
duh ive seen better days. best excuse to give - im tired. no im fine. really.
bullshit but hell, ill get through it. dont i always?
time will prove it never expected anything in the first place, but somehow thought, why not? maybe its possible.
just making myself feel better guess it wasnt for me. everything happens for a reason
same old comforting words. my turn just aint here yet. feel like the three
crazy guys in
caretaker - they all have goals, but never get around to achieving it. esp aston, always preparing for the big thing, but ultimately, he's where he started. stationary. thats me.
how i hate it
but im happy for the 2 of you. really. no one can do a better job than both of you.
the pride of t04.

cip today was not very productive.. too many people were there, resulted in a number just hanging around.. im guilty too, but towards the later part, got to feed this 106 year old lady.. and she finished everything! she's so cute! haha.
was at espirt with some of my classmates afterward and saw this lovely, absolutely LOVELY red/pink striped beach bag.. but my mum said not to buy cos i have like so many already and that im already gonna get a crumpler (reconseidering though..), so ya.. but that wont bring me down, cos i got a SPONSOR(s).. yah bimbo? heh. let me thank you in advance. (:
hee.. this is one good thing about arriving birthdays.. get to rip people off. (: surprisingly, this year round im quite looking forward to my birthday. maybe bcos ive got people like giam and nana who simply make me feel loved and wanted. or maybe cos im just turning 18. you know, that imfinallylegal stuff. then again, who knows, maybe everything will screw up again, like it always does. but this time, im not gonna think about it and do my best to enjoy myself.. (:
got to go finish my uncompleted hw from last night.. was quite unproductive, only completed one geog tutorial, one-eighth of my geog essay and othello essay and i havent started studying for my geog testS, or touched my econs!
-pulls hair-
