I miss 109'08 like crazy crazy crazy okay. If any of you see this, I MISS YOU ALL A LOT !!
Not that I'm biased towards you all for whatever reason but okay you guys were like my first sec one class and I always felt super duper responsible for practically everything about how you all were. Maybe 'cause I was sec two and also a bit overzealous but anyways yes me misses you all very much! Miss PSL sessions, miss fighting with Yuqing on your tagboards, miss screaming ONEOHNINE! so much that I even yell it when trying to get 202's attention, miss your S/PSLs too!

And also my very super ultra adorable 105'09 the cute class! I remember all the PSLs thought the Adorable was like whoa, destined because it was so appropriate and I can't even remember what we originally wanted to call you all because Adorable was 10X better. You all are seriously super duper cute what with colourful hairspray for concert, Bring It On cheers, being so enthu at house prac (haha even Jenny came to tell us!) and everything else. Ah PSLs owe you super lot of things leh D: But we'll go visit someday!

110! Even if I'm not really your PSL, I have to say you all did really incredibly well finishing everything! One week was really not enough lah, but despite everything still you survived. LISTEN TO YOUR PSLs OKAY but also don't dao me lah I'll still be there :D

Hello everyone I'm back from Orientation camp! Fourth and last one ):

I'm really happy that 110 worked so hard for their item, they didn't win but that's okay! 101 didn't win anything when we were sec one, but we had fun so yeah even if efforts don't give prizes they give us something to be proud of.

Goh Jen is back! She told us about how she sat on the same planes as famous people (Utt and Denzel Washington!!!!) and okay I have concluded my life is incredibly uninteresting. Haha.

My throat has never been so sore after Orientation, so either I'm yelling too much with my throat or I'm getting old. I think I'm getting old. Good thing there's no house prac next week haha or else I'd just croak.

Speaking of which, we had first house prac today! Was pretty messy lah, but sec ones like the hokkien cheer :D And I think this batch is not bad as a whole, people were already going "Yay Richard!" or "Yay Buckle!" even though house intro was just Thursday (I think.). Like before concert when I was with 110 there were Richardsonians high-fiving me haha it was pretty cool!

I am posting quite frequently now because I'm still in a fabulous mood, thanks to Gmail. I know I'm a total nerd haha but it's really cool!!! Don't get me started on Reader.

Orientation is going pretty well, I must say, Sec Ones are not shabby for third-day kids. But still not loud enough, guys!

I really like 110 and classICs. They are showing little improvements here and there and so are their classICs :D Three more days!

My latest obsession: Gmail.

Gmail is like the coolest k, you can choose Gmail themes, upload up to 20mb of attachments, and you don't have to download save every freaking file on your desktop just to find out that you don't need them 5 minutes later when a newer version arrives. Plus you can add in a lot of other experimental functions like previewing youtube videos from your inbox etc. etc.

SARAH TAN, YOU WERE RIGHT (:

Sorry blog. You should have realised after the long days of neglect, that you do not hold an important position in my life.

First day of school okay I am totally getting old. Not grown-up old but like aged old. And I know there are all those Active Aging campaigns out there but whatever, not the point. The point is that I'm getting so old, a day of school can leave me so tired and drained and dying.
Plus it's not because of sleep deprivation anymore, because I have been sleeping (quite) early.

Haha but whatever, that's life.

Now that I think about it, to me, blogging is a pretty useless communication tool. It's more of a pastime.
But if that's so, it's a weird sort of pastime. Because I don't blog about anything really worthy of reading (save for the occasional advert). So might as well just write stuff and not put it on display, since everything on public display can be used against me, right?

I want to go back to my Daddy's place at Sherwood in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam. It's like living in the Tipton :D Free coffee and tea 2.30-5pm. And 2 pool tables. And a swimming pool. And the awesome elevators. And the 5 star restaurant food is cheaper than Singapore hawker center food it's like !?!!?

Mom says I can totally move in with Dad if I want to, and I can go to that international school there but it'll be totally wasted since I've already survived 3 years in RGS so aww I'll be seeing you guys in January.

I will not type in full wishy washy paragraphs today.

It is Saturday. 12/12/09
The Princess and The Frog is a nice movie.
Our film is quite screwed.
Our other film is also quite screwed.
RGS girls travel a lot.
We have not had a proper TI gathering with more than 10 people for a long time.
But anyways, they're busy people.
I love Disney music. I love classic Disney movies.
I forgot how Snow White goes. But anyways, it wasn't one of my favourites.
Lea Salonga was also the voice of Mulan. Noticed how Mulan sounds like Jasmine?
Cedric is cooler than Edward. And less annoying.
I wonder if I should read Eclipse and Breaking Dawn, but everyone's already spoiled it for me.
Escapism is awesome. Serious.

In the context of being taken to an extreme, the word "escapism" carries a negative connotation, suggesting that escapists are unhappy, with an inability or unwillingness to connect meaningfully with the world.

Haha looks like I have a problem here.

Lea Salonga has such a sweet voice. Listening to her sing A Whole New World as princess Jasmine is just... wow.

AHHHHHHHH

The Biggest Loser Asia auditions are on TV.

Some of those people could have thyroid problems, it's possible.

Last season's The Biggest Loser ended up 5'6 and 116 pounds.

Hello potato has become my signature greeting, I think I picked it after Hello banana was dismissed. Hello potato rhymes better.

Typing in HTML is weird.

Meh watched New Moon with Lek, Dong and Bebe on Thursday hahaha it wasn't very good, maybe too slow for my liking. It was seriously the slowest full length I've ever watched. At the part where Bella confronts Jacob and they're both standing in the rain trying to form coherent sentences I couldn't help myself and burst out laughing because the melodrama was killing me. :D Good thing I stifled it or I would've ruined the scene for everyone else whoops. Haha so Bebe who was beside me heard and went "WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING?" but I was laughing and couldn't answer properly so she joined in(: Awesomeness ttm!

Bebe got a nice fringe she looks really cute now! But it's only gonna last for December. After that it's back to neat Nan Hua plaits and pinned up fringes):
P.S. Phoebe Yip if you're reading this Lek and I have found some blackmail-worthy pictures of you in your house when you were out, and muahahaha.

TI'10 is nearly over! Reading Germ's post made me remember how we all felt when TI'09 was over and I remember all of us in the hallway outside our dorms and all the sec 3s hugging Ben and getting chased back into our rooms by Hong Laoshi and all finding our luggages too small for our stuff and how when we finally got back to Singapore the first thing we did was organize a mass convo which I had to leave because I was burning hot from the sudden climatic transition (if that's a way to say it). So anyways nothing really ever beats TI'09 for real (:

1. I like Scrubs. It's not super funny, but it's... nice.
2. I wanna go back to Christmas Island someday. Maybe see if I could stand living there for a few weeks. Drastic change of pace?
3. I miss living in Suzhou. I don't get why I didn't miss it as much when I first left, but now I really do.
4. I should go to sleep now.
5. Every point before this one was written starting with an 'I'.
6. I think that means I'm self centered.
7. There goes another one.
8. My to-do list isn't of much help.
9. I have 2 films and 2 montages to complete before the holidays are up.
10. I'm being a horrible RICE deputy. Been gone for too long counting crabs in CI, so Evan's been doing a lot D: D: D:
11. Goodbye.

Hello internet I am back from sleepy little Christmas Island. In comparison to that place, Singapore life is a never ending mad rush. Goodness and we see the same people everywhere because there are like 1504 citizens or something so people can hold 3-4 jobs easily. Plus no stress. Everything closes in the early afternoon for lunch, and everyone knocks off at 9pm. Ms Tan said she'd go mad living there for more than a week because life there is too slow.

I counted three people in CIDistrictHighSchool with glasses. Three out of a possible 250. And 80% of Singaporean males aged 18 and up are myopic. D:

I love that place and it's simplicity (: Except for the gazillion Aedes mosquitoes, poor Glace Rim is spotted all over from bites! Yeah and living in the lodge was quite awesome haha singing Mamma Mia/Don't Trust Me/New Perspective with Grace till late at night, playing Tap Tap, crashing Steph and Lynn's room, buying Aussie candy, camwhoring etc. AWESOME :D

And 27th November is officially Two-Ponytail Day! I think we should start a two-ponytail fad sometime and drive the nation wild :D

PSLTC yesterday (: I don't feel like giving details because I'd end up typing another ridiculously long post, and I hate chunks of text. So all I'll say is I hope the J/PSLs did learn what we set out to teach them, and I hope they're excited about the coming year!

Christmas Island in 31 hours! I haven't started packing. Sheesh okay I'll do it... later tonight.

I love classic Disney movies. Not Camp Rock or stuff like that, just the normal 2D animated stuff. Of course the new movies are great too, but nothing beats the stuff from the '90s, especially the music.
Aladdin was just on Disney channel! Lek was over while it was on, she says it's only her second time watching it, I practically know it by heart. Janne says Jasmine is the hottest Disney girl. I disagree, I think Megara is the hottest and Jasmine comes in a close second.

A roll of char siew chee cheong fun is only 65 calories. Remember that.

I've never watched Scrubs. But this song I stumbled upon from My Musical (the episode where this woman who ends up in the hospital sees everything musical-form) is so nice (:





Now I think watching Scrubs would be a fabulous idea.

Hello I am back again because as you may or may not know, I tend to write very long posts so to avoid having ugly big chunks on my blog I split my posts. Yes so anyways, after (a)parallel and Meg's "I'm not good at anything" speech I have been thinking about fortes and how it seems most people know their fortes quite well (if you watch HSM you'll know what I mean). Like how my Grandma can sing well and my Grandpa can do business stuff well and my cat can sleep very, very well.
So then I was thinking, do I have a forte? Then I thought maybe not, because I do not have a fabulous singing voice, I cannot run as fast as I would like to, I am not particularly charismatic, and I certainly do not rock at blogging. So I decided to settle for trying to be good, which is...good enough. Or I could be good at being average, if that sounds better. :D

So today me, Giwon, Julia, Persa, Amanda, Verna, Cat, Charm, Chanel and Yufei turned up for school. (That sentence is grammatically unsound but whatever.) That's 33.3333333333...% of 307.
Hooray!
Uhm so the school day was composed of Malay dance, violin and guitar duets, cute Australian song, bridge, Chanel's creative bidding strategies, clay, koping food from sec 2 ACP, screaming, CCA photos, singing aloud and well, all the usual. Life is pretty good.

Oh yes RachelTan and I went to meet Andy again love love love his office yay! And we got Juan Foo as our film mentor! (If you don't know Google him:) Spent an hour and a half reviewing our entry and talking about how to re shoot certain scenes, tidy some stuff up and I got goosebumps watching that piece of work again esp. when Juan un-muted the music because there were so many obvious flaws. I am pretty glad that we get a second chance at this thingum.

My blog is boring TTM so I will say something exciting. HAORONG AND HAOYU ARE COMING TO RGS. Yes, they are. I BET YOU DON'T KNOW THEM. Okay I phail at exciting.
I will say something else that is exciting. I WORE A PRETTY DRESS TODAY. Gawk and gasp all you like, people. Okay fine maybe I'll give up exciting and continue being boring.

Hello so a lot has been happening lately and most of it fun (:

Yesterday was fun! Had PSB Night practice in school at 11 it's gonna be awesomeeeeee and I will NOT bust my shin this year. Oh choir concert was great too, I can't sing like those kids can. They totallaye deserved a GWH!

OH AND AFTER THAT I MET MY MOM AND DONG AND LEK AND BEBEYIP. Dong, Lek and Bebe were swimming at Safra when I arrived and we drove to Seletar Country Club for Brendan Lau's birthday. Imagine a one year old having a birthday banquet in the ballroom complete with blown up banners of himself and WAITERS running around refilling glasses. Cool eh? And guess which crew turned up wearing shorts and T shirts? Nobody seemed to really care, at least.

Then after that drove to Sembawang park where we did monkey bars and the swings plus volleyed a green balloon from the party. Bebe and Lek got addicted to Oven Break on my phone.

Today went to Changi Airport to send the TI people off but guess what I was late so only Germaine was still outside the departure gates ): Well at least I didn't go for nothing! HAVE FUN IN TAIWAN, PEOPLE! GERM REMEMBER THE SARSAPARILLA AND TELL ME ABOUT THE OTHER TI KIDS SO I CAN FB STALK THEM ALL.

Jiayun, TZY, Ben and Ryan were there too, but Ryan had to leave. So I followed Jiayun to the foodcourt to watch Ben and Zhiyuan eat their lunch. Ben says the strange guy who asked me to be his friend the day before was a perv who made the news before.

Jiayun: Different people have different interests. Mine are eating and sleeping!

Dodgeball was fun today! Was supposed to ref but we didn't have enough players so the refs played too. Haha it's like slacking and laughing and screaming and throwing and jumping and more laughing. Awesome IHG. If nobody organises it next year I WILL COMPLAIN (:
And Richardson owned IHGs yay! But I guess it was kinda more for fun this time because it's only among sec 3s so haha just hope everyone had fun today. Winning feels goood though :D
Took some pics with housemates. You know I Never Knew Wanshuen Was In Richardson whoops.

Netcarn tomorrow we're (again) unprepared but can't wait! Netball is fun.
