there are only a few wonderful friends that come along in one's life. i thought i had found my wonderful friend, when things happen and distances me from __ .and sometimes..jus sometimes, i feel like im back to a square one, where somr colour seems to be drained away from my life. and im so glad that there are others arnd me to fill in my life and not make me feel so bad.
on a lighter note, today at the library was an hour well spent!! we had such a grreaaattt time luffing. it was qt empty today, when we went in during one of our 2 brks for mon. then lulu came and z came up with some funny idea of plotting to kill a certain somebody. omg...lulu's luffter is so infectious that yw and i cudnt stop luffing till our stomachs ached. then the old librarian came arnd our area to say, who are the 2 girls luffing so loudly, and we walked arnd to some pillar and pretended to be looking at some bks, then we escaped to the 2nd floor. well, then up there, we planned for yw's bday and we jus kept luffing cos yw makes ppl high! hahah. THEN somebody sneezed and z had to say "Bless YOu!" loudly and i jus cudnt hold it anymore!! hahaha, we were all so amused and high and happy we jus kept luffing. hmm. and isnt it wonderful that along with those luffters, maths qns are being completed! hahahah

went for a free concert - Beautiful Sunday, which is a series of free concerts at the esplanade- with my family. today's was the youth philharmonic winds (aka symphonic band). and i jus rediscovered the beauty of wind instruments. i always had a liking for strings, but oh well, i guess winds are really awesome too. who care abt crappy boybands, angsty lyrics and trashy tunes when ture music lies in all these wonderful instruments, waiting for the masters to create great music out of it?

have i said how grateful i am to have frens arnd me who are artistically-inclined, whether performing or fine arts.
went to sch to discuss pw and after that went to town for a while since rach didnt wanna go home so soon. so we went to visit the 4th level of taka, which is all the craft shops, like the book binders, the better art store (really cute stuff!! and toys for kids) and of cos! we went to art friends. superb!! WAY better than spotlight..hahah, but spotlight has the fabrics. hmm, yes, so we loved everything we saw, stencils, beads, painter's palettes, feathers, GEL WAX!! everything i've been so wanting to get when there was one outlet at bras basah. i got this charcoal pencil thing..makes one feel so pro when drawing with it. and there, i felt so glad that i have ppl like rach and yiwei arnd me to appreciate my passion and interest, and understand why i love craft SO MUCH. yiwei and i agreed that, if life wasnt abt money to keep surviving, we would jus take up some odd job and stay at home doing craft!
if i could ever do tht. i would first buy a sewing machine. i would be cross stitching, sewing pouches/ bags and clothes, making earrings and accessories, drawing and sketching, making little gifts like gel candles.
haha, tht's why i once had the idea of opening a handmade gifts shop, where i cvan transform my interest into cash.
life is never what u want it to be rite? doing what u love beats sitting in an office 24/5 staring at figures and squiggly words. dun waste ur life away
pls pls pls, let me be able to fulfill my wishes and pursue my passion one day

i think singapore can break a world record of having the most no. of people wearing red at the same time same place.
it's amazing how this patriotism works its way into our lives unconsciously! 99.999999% of the ppl at the padang actually bothered to wear red! i'm so proud of ourselves! the parade is really not tht great. plus the formations would have looked nicer from an aerial view, which means we might as well watch from home. HOWEVER. the aero-manouvres were unbeatable k!!! i think the coolest things were the airplane stunts and the fireworks! beats anything else! and enthu me actually waved the flag or tapped the tambourine as we were instructed to! hmm, a perfect case of successful NE. but, im seriously proud to be a Singaporean! well, the boring parts were jus the guards-of-honour and the uniformed grp stuff, and the song items. i think the national day songs are deproving. i can only rmb up to quan xin quan yi (by steph sun) which was..2 yrs back? nth can beat the gd old we are singapore or stand up for s'pore.
there were this 2 cute little girls sitting behind me and my sis, and they were so cute!!! they sang the national anthem SO loudly!! and they screamed when the fireworks came out. the younger told her dad that she was scared, and the dad said that if they were scared they can scream, so they screamed. SO CUTE!!!
encore'05. adrenalinerush.applause.spotlights.music.action. rgchoir, you're the best thing that happened to me. -- tht is xiumin, my jr's msn nick. SO TRUE.
somehow, i miss the feeling of being in a performing cca. jazz club! wait for me!!

i jus cant find that energy that i had during the jun hols to bring myself to do work. not to mention that my brain is alrdy saturated with info. im so worried for my CTs but my mind's not following my heart. and its doesnt help that PW SUCKS BIG TIME. i rmb the tarot cards reading told me to concentrate on my goal. but i jus cant find the energy to! help!
going for NDP tmr. but somehow, when u get to this age, the anticipation is gone. even though it has been yrs since the last NDP i attended, im jus not that interested in NDP alrdy. tho i do agree that the atmosphere makes one very patriotic. haha! well well, maybe it will change my mind? hahah

jus got back frm fran's party. hmm, qt different frm what i thot it to be. it was like a wedding dinner..haha, like some tables, and a buffet dinner. then the ambience wasnt tht gd lah..ahha, i thot it wud be a stand arnd and interact thing. but oh well, then they started playing funny games...like "honey i love u will u smile for me pls" game. which was rather boring..so some of us made an escapade to the toilet. then there was a disco thing...and some ppl didnt dance lah, so it was kinda sad too...then ppl left for clubbing and what nots, and i guess it ended earlier than expected. oh well. but it was a great time to gather with the 401 darlings!

yesterday's concert ENCORE 05 was a BLAST!!! choir u really rocked the squiggles' socks!! we were commenting on how a lot of sec3s opened up , and realised tht sec 2 is a problematic yr and how all of them became so enthu. we were also wondering if we had been a bad comp and scared them or sth. cos...we rmbed...expelling ppl who weren't up to standard + attitude problem and also! cos ms loo didnt like them AND we didnt too. we were really mean! hahahah sharon mindy and i were luffing at the though of how we gave ppl different nicknames and how we were always in cahoots to do bad stuff...
I MISS SQUIGS!!oh , the musical WAS GREAT!!! the costumes and everythign, WONDERFUL! the plot and script and choreo all done by themselves was SUPERB! beats having a choreographer!! but the choral singing could be improved on!! i liked besame mucho!! so nice. oh and they shud stop gesturing too much with their hands cos it shud only be done during pracs..doesnt look too gd on stage
oh well...had a grt time catching up with the squigs and juniors. haiz. it felt grt to be able to sing the sch song again, and i think i ve nv cheered so happily b4. hmm, vei and i agree that, in rj, its a very professional relationship with frens but in rg its a family! plus choir is a very family-like cca and its jus feels so diff when u get to jc and things change..and thts y sometimes i feel i dun belong

i don't believe in a totally happy life. a life without sadness is artificial. i guess i am a person who has rather pessimistic thoughts and may even have a tendency towards..depression? but i believe in the optimistic things in life, believing in the simple joys of life, just simply enjoying the gift of life and our sheer existence. the world can never make everyone happy.

| Slow and Steady |
 They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder. It'd really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the moment. They expect you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then usually decide against it. |
