DAY.FOUR

HAYAHOSHI JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL !! *screams* I JUST LOVE THAT PLACEE.. It's so filled with superbly nice and friendly people! And also AHEM* [Hints: It's a mixed school]. It's an important day to me actually since it's the performance day and the day where I have to give my speech in Japanese in front of JAPANESE! You get what I mean? Yeah anyway, we were welcomed by this beautifully decorated BLACK board. It's really pretty. I love it! I was wondering if we could do sucha nice one for the Japanese when they are here in Singapore :)

We had a little rest and SOON, I gave my speech. I was terribly nervous and I seriously felt my butt vibrating like CRAZY alright! Can you imagine the scene where 2 tv stations are there and the WHOLE OF THE SCHOOL is looking at YOU?! Yupyup, but thank god I did it! WHEEE.. Then we all did the performance, I was enjoying myself. Dont know why, maybe because I havent stood on stage to perform for ages already :D

Okay, after that we went to our respective classes! Me, Katie and Phyllis went for music class. AIYYAA.. So disappointing! They're sec ones which means the boys are NAUGHTY! The class sang a little then the teacher asked us to sing! MY GOODNESS.. "School song? Do you have school song?" Uh oh.. I dont know how to sing teacher. Hahaa. But luckily we prepared this national day song "We Will Get There" so we sang it. It's LIVE without MUSIC okay! I was nervous again but I THINK it's alright. HAHA. I sat this girl, Mina. Although we were both too shy to talk to each other but the friendship and bond is somehow there. She was a really sweet girl. She seemed to like my notebook when I decided to give it to her, I actually asked Miyano sensei to help me pass the notebook to her! The whole finding thing was amazing!

Then during my tennis lesson, she ran all the way to pass me this tiny note! Ahhh.. Im so touched okay! I missed her like crazy after that. It's sucha pity that I didnt even get an email address or take a picture with her!! Stupid me! Anyway, I had a lot of fun during tennis and made a friend there :D We changed and left after that. Everyone was so sad!! We were all waving like mad in the bus! Hahaa. I MISS THEM!! I WANNA STAY IN HAYAHOSHI JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL~

DAY.THREE

TATEYAMA ALPINE!! I really enjoyed myself during the whole journey up the mountain, at the mountain and down the mountain. Hahaa! I just love the beautiful sceneries there. And lunch was fabulous! Maybe it's because it's a hotel, Im not sure but I love it :D We played a little snow outside the hotel then went further up the mountain for MORE SNOW! YAY :) I think our main aim was to put up our posters and find the Raicho, this very rare bird that is almost going to extinct. But I didnt know why.. Jessica, Katie, Charite, Zhen Min and I were so far away from the whole group! Haha, so we decided to take our own sweet time. We were having so much fun and laughter and soon the Ms Lum and the mountain sick Zenia came along. This day was also the day Ah Gong(Jessica) and Ah Ma(Me) were invented! Haha.

Upon seeing the group back to the destination and we were only half way there, we decided to walk back. AWWW.. But it's okay, I still had loads of fun! Jessica and I used the plastic bag to slide down the slope or whatever you call that. It's so fun but we were always stuck. Hhaha. My jeans got all wet and I remembered I fell and couldnt bring myself to get up, thus wetting my jeans more. Haha. While we were almost leaving, we built a ST MARGS SNOWMAN. It's really cool! :)

DAY.TWO

We dressed up in our blazers and left Osaka to TOYAMA :) When we reached, we proceeded to the Mayor's Office and people from the tv station were there too.. So, we appeared on the newspaper the next day. Haha. While almost everyone were tired with their court shoes, I was kinda enjoying the feeling of wearing sockings and court shoes. It makes me feel so.. NICE! ;D After all that introduction, we went up and saw the beautiful scenery of Toyama and I was chasing Charite around. HAH!

We went to Tateyama Youth Training Center in the night and there were so many ADORABLE LITTLE CHILDREN!! I just love them like crazy :)) We had double decker beds and I kept knocking my head because I was using the one below.. The day wasnt very fun because there's more travelling.

DAY.ONE

Once we touched down at Japan, we headed straight to the place where we were gonna change into BEATIFUL COLOURED kimonos! Wheee. I loved the idea of wearing kimonos but it wasnt very comfortable. The waist was feeling so tight that no food could actually squeeze down to the stomach. Haha. It felt terrible at first but soon I got used to it. After lunch, we begun our task learning immediately. We went around asking for directions and people are all really kind to help you. The journey to the final destination was a LONG one but we still got there in time and I'm glad we did it! ^^ When we reached, many Japanese girls were requesting to take a photo with us. I seriously felt like some superstar : DD Too bad they didnt want my autograph :D

Katie and I walked along the crowded place while having fun at the same time looking at pretty stuffs. I saw many handsome Japanese guys and neither did I know there're more to come. HAHA. Went to the Osaka International Youth Hostel to stay for a night and it's time for PUBLIC BATH! Ahh.. But I kinda cheated a little, I actually went to the shower place only for a person. WHEEE xP

DAY.ZERO

Woke up early as per normal and went to school for our final rehearsal for the JEP performance. I was still really stressed up about it. Everything was so unstable that I couldnt help but worry. Thank goodness it went out perfectly fine and I headed home to SLEEEPP. But sadly, Katie woke me up from my beauty sleep to tell me she's reaching my house. [We're going together you see.] Uh huh. Since Papa, Mummy and Korkor were overseas, Aunty came to bring me to the airport. So sweet :) I wasnt very excited at first but soon, excitement grew in me as days go by!

Sunday, May 21, 2006

OH MY GOODNESS.. My poor little fingers! Or rather the 4th finger. It feels so senseless now because of the non-stop writing of 'love letters'. Haha! As everyone knows, I'll be flying off to Japan TOMORROW and to prevent everyone from missing me, I decided to write each one of them a tiny weeny little note. Hah :) But no joke okay, I actually took 2 FULL HOURS to write to 10 people! My eyes and hands are aching like mad. I wonder why am I this free when I should be doing my student reflection :D Heh.

I bought a Adidas Prem Teambag while shopping with Kattie at Taka today. YAY! I finally found a suitable bag and it's meets all my needs! It costs 75 bucks but I think it's quite reasonable cause it's huge and PRETTY! It's black on the outside and purple inside. I LOVEEE IT! Whhees. And what's MOST importantly is that it's a NEW arrival. MUAHAHAA~ I love that word :D

Die die, I'm spending so much even before I breathe the air in Japan! My mummy is gonna chop me into pieces! So I guess the whole trip actually costs 3000 plus. O_O!! Im feeling guilty yet happy at the same time. Hahaa!

Watched Singapore Idol just now and I was laughing my head off, really. It was so hilarious! I cant believe people are actually so brave! I would never never wanna see myself on a Singapore Idol show. Haha! Well, I guess it's time to go to bed. I still have school tmr! Tatas~
Ookaay. Got all results back on Friday. I passed all except for one which is Maths. Oh well, whatever. I'm so frustrated over it. Mummy, Papa and Korkors are all OVERSEAS! I'm so lonely, alright! That's why my world's revolving round friends now. WHHEE.

Went out with Wanda, Ally, Germy and Katie :D Happy happy! Woke up early to watch Da Vinci Code but it's NC 16. Actually Wanda, Katie and I are kinda acceptable BUT when they saw Ally and Germy.. AHEM* Yeahh, we gave up in the end and watched Over The Hedge. I wasnt interested at first but I kinda liked it in the end ^^" The baby porcupines are SOO CUTEE. My goodness. I WANT ONE! :D After the movie, we went to Paragon to buy my stockings for JEP then to Heeren for NEOS! :) I finally bought my WHITE hairband. Yayzies, I love it to bits! Maybe I shall buy a red one tmr when I go out with Katie. Hee :)

I walked really fast just now and my socks are too low that I have 2 painful blisters at the back of foot! I was struggling so hard to walk! People must be thinking there was a problem with my leg. Luckily I had handy dandy plasters with me. After pasting them, I felt as if I can FLY WITHOUT WINGS. HAHA :D We took the 2nd neoprint at Cine then head back home cause Wanda was so ANXIOUS to get to my house. Like whats so nice, Wanda? There isnt any gold! Goodness. We cabbed back home cause I have no idea how to get back by bus, I forgot to ask Korkor before he went to England.

I was sitting right at the front, beside the taxi driver. I was having sucha HARD TIME okay! He was getting so frustrated and all about us having 5 people on the taxi and it's leaning to a side then Wanda, Ally, Germy were talking to much. GOSH, he kept sighing and sighing. Like what's wrong! Why cant they talk? But still, I sms-ed Wanda to ask them to stop talking cause I cant stand him any longer. Arghhs, I felt so relieved when we got down the taxi. Eeek, thats my worst experience in the taxi!

We had a nice time in my house and even after that. HAHA, Wanda tried opening the gate with the key but she was simply too afraid of it. Hah, both of us were laughing real hard! So funny. Okay, going last minute shopping with Katie tmr. Im so EXCITED! Hope 300 dollars is enough! Goodnight everyone :)

It's the WORST day of my life today.

Wednesday, May 17, 2006

IT'S A TERRIBLE DAY TODAY! I think it was because I put my hopes too high and now everything's in a mess! :( I think it's all my fault. Im not a good leader! I feel so lost that I really wanna help but Im hopeless..

Tuesday, May 16, 2006

i seriously wanna stop blogging in case people get sick of me but i have something to say about my new discovery! i just realised that.. my track shoes are all from NIKE! ahaha! :) okay, end of my discovery. LOL, im so lame.
HOORAY!! It's a HAPPYHAPPY day TODAY! Haha. I bought loadds of things!! The bags are heavy! YAY :)) Mummy was really generous today, GOOD! *double thumbs up* Mummy bought this lip treatment thingy for me from Fancl. MY GOODNESS. It's just a tiny weeny tube and it costs a lot! I thought it was for herself so it's okay but me?! Oookay.. She said I had to 'bao yang' since young. *shrugs* When someone gives you something, take it :D Especially something good.

Second stop was NIKE ! I bought a pair of track shoes there and a PINK bottle! How cute :D The shoes are as light as feathers. Trust me! I dont feel a single thing while holding them! They're only a week old, very new isnt it! Whheee. Angeline LOVEES new things! I just talked to them not long ago. "Are you shoes?"thats what I said. But they didnt reply me. [OF COURSE LA..] Haha!

Went to Giordano to buy my v-neck top for my summer kimono. Mummy then told me she felt like drinking bubble tea so we went to buy it. After buying, she actually wanted to WASH THE STRAWS! Alright, virgos are like that. But it's a little weird to see sucha well-dressed woman going to the dustbin to wash her bubble tea straws. Lols?

Next, we went to crystal jade to yum cha. Hahaa! I saw many many pretty ladies there, eating their paos ever-so-gracefully. Haha. "Are they that free?" I thought. They must be, I guessed ^^ Well well, after we filled our stomachs we went to U2 and I saw what i've always wanted! I dont know what you call it but it's really nice! xD Heh heh. Everything seems sooo smooth today. I like it, mummy too. She was carrying the things and said "Like that good what. So easy dont need to walk here and there". HAHAA. She didnt even complain the bags are heavy! xD I declare that, today's shopping spree is a SUCCESS! :D Cheers~

I cant believe I actually ate koko krunch with CHOCOLATE milk this morning! Gosh, it's so sweet and makes my throat sore T_T But my normal milk has finished so I had no choice but to do that. That'll be the first and the last! I told Wanda about it and she told me she LIKED IT!? Eeeww.. And she was actually eating MILO POWDER!! Ahhh! She's as abnormal as aliens! She likes that to be like that. Okay, but isnt it SUPER DRY!? Nevermine, I dont wanna know. She's weird and Im weird. That's why we're W1 and W2. Guess which is which? HAHA! :) Tata~
Yesterday was a terribly long day till I actually fell asleep while smsing Wanda :D Sorry Wanda! Yeahh, although it was a short one for everybody since paper ends at 9am or around there, but i actually left sch at 7 pm! x\ My whole day was just revolving round JEP. We[Kat, Starsha, Sarah, Aretha, Joey] did the choreography for dance first then the posters next. After that, we went to Black Canyon for lunch and ISLAND CREAMERY for ice cream of course! :)) But there wasnt my MANGO ice cream !! So sad but I still chose Strawberry. Heh. Soon it was time to head back so we went back to start on work AGAIN when everyone should be out at ORCHARD. Gah!

Around 2.30? We had jap lesson by Miyano sensei. She's really funny! Haha. Are all japanese teachers this funny?! I dont know but I hope so! She was telling us how Japan girls act and how Singapore girls act. Also, how you should walk with a Summer Kimono. ^^ Im excited, but I hope I wont look too fat in it. *gulps* I signed up for music lesson with the Junior High Sch students in Japan and tennis for CCA :) Yay, should be fun I guess.

We had 3 hours of briefing and after our parents came, there was ANOTHER briefing with same contents in it! Oh my goodness! I yawned a thousand times I think. And the worst thing is, mummy didnt even know why was she there for until she saw the paper.. *faints* Yeap so thats all about it. Im the leader of the group now! Im a little worried, hope I can be a good one! :) Going shopping with mummy later. YAY YAY YAY! I bet im gonna spend loadds of money for today's shopping. Because.. I need to buy,

1. Track shoes (100plus)
2. Bag (100plus)
3. Jacket (100 plus)
4. Water Bottle (?)
5. Souvenirs for host family (??)
6. Stockings (?)

Yeap, these are all the 'must buys'. The first three almost cost a bomb already! Im so dead. My mummy WILL kill me. I guess I'll just eat bread today.

MY GOODNESS. I've been one BIG fool since 12 April 2006! Why? Because I kept thinking no one tagged at tagboard when there is! I didnt know why but the posts just stopped at 12 April so I didnt see any after that :( Im sucha fool. Okay, I shall start replying tags!

JANE; Haha. You fool! Of course you can come to my house again! Anytime you wanna come, I'll welcome you with.. With, hmmms.. I DONT KNOW WHAT! Haha. But yeah, anytime you want :) You wanna learn photoshop? Okay, come to my house and I'll teach you. [Okay that sounded wrong? I sounded like some bad wolfes :D] And I miss you too.

GERMAINE; I love you too germainey :)

ALLY; Dont be jealous dear. Im sure having a sister will be a nice thing in a way :) Look at the bright side!

WANDA; What's your problem wanda! Hahaa. I dont know whhy I can make so *AHEM* skins too. I just did them like some magic. Remember, im a fairy godmother :D

OKAY. I've done my mugging for HE and that would be the last time I'm gonna study for now. HAHA. Alrightey, I'm off to study indian dance. BYE~
My day started off with being late for Jap lesson. I actually woke up at 9.40 when it starts at 10.15?! It's all my fault, I actually forgot to set my alarm clock. Oopsie. I rushed like mad and didnt had the chance to bathe because I need 30 minutes and theres simply no time. So yeap, thank god I wasnt late. I was a little confused at things during class today. Maybe I was tired, I dont know. After class, I waited for papa at the taxi stand. As I sat there, many emotions started to fill me. I had this urge to write a poem all of a sudden. It was drizzling so I felt a little cold, next lonely. Sighh.. Maybe I'll write a poem when Im free.

Was supposed to go shopping with Wanda, but she couldnt make it cause her mummy doesnt allow. Oh well, we smsed each other though. She was telling me how badly she wants cds. Haha! And she actually came to take it. This shows how impatient she was :D At least I'm more patient. Ive gotta wait for 2 months and I didnt complain at all ^^; I finally saw her yellow nails. Haha. It suits her till it's like specially made for her. Maybe it's because she's wearing yellow too. I dont know. Haha. But one thing Im sure of is that it'll look terrible on me.

The whole day was really boring, no doubt. I felt that theres loads to do but I just cant bring myself to do them. Im lazy I know, but I seriously need a break from the past week's full-force mugging. One day, I just want to lie there, on a HUGE green grass patch, looking at the clouds or stars, without having anything in my mind. I just wanna lie there and admire the beautiful scene in front of me. Being apart from the busy city may be something nice. Or maybe sit at a cafe, enjoying the atmosphere in it while sipping coffee or tea or anything thats there. It's sucha romantic thing to do. Okay, Im getting emotional here. Shall go to sleep and dream about dreams.

Goodnight.

Sometimes love comes so unexpectedly
Like a thief in the night
Sometimes we feel its wrong
When the truth is its so right

Sometimes we ignore
Sometimes we forget
Even if we started feeling this
That moment that we met

Give my love a chance
Please just try and see
Because if there is one person so in love with you
That person would be me

Im so pleased with the result! It's pretty, isn't it? Ive always ALWAYS wanted to do something like that and now I finally did it! Whhees. Im in love with vintage and retro now. Maybe my next blogskin shall be that way. ^^ It's bedtime! I guess I gotta sleep now. 9 hours left before going for Jap lessons :D

Friday, May 12, 2006

My shopping spree for today wasnt really successful :'( I bought nothing except for my long craved ROYAL GLAMOUR notebook! Ahh, the stocks are finally here! And not to forget, things for Wanda like the Sudoku Puzzle book, Cat Power cds. They costs me 60 plus. My heart is bleeding! HAHA. But we're exchanging presents so it's okay. I cant wait for my birthday! ^^ Lalaa. I was asking Wanda for suggestions just now on what shall we do on that day and she told me, "Party. Drink. Something sophisticated. Just party. Talking. And alcohol." Haha. Ooookay... I get your point Wanda but yeah. I CANT DRINK for nuts! Hahaa. We shall think of other ideas and have it the BEST PARTY i've ever had. ^^ Yay. I've came up with my invitation list already. Fast eh? When my birthday is like 2 months later :D Im excited, i cant control myself. Heee. I WANT A TIME MACHINE TO FAST FORWARD TIME :))

Thursday, May 11, 2006

Science science science is OVER! ^^ Im happy happy happy. Hahaa! The process was really torturing though cause I felt sharp pains at my stomach and I was feeling so sleepy all of a sudden. So practically, I was only half 'conscious' throughout paper 2. Haha! Okay nevermine about the paper, it's over :) Lets about about the times AFTER THE PAPER. Yay!

Jane organised ANOTHER movie outing. With 7 of us going; Me, Celina, Leanne, Trishy, Shali, Jia Huen and of course JANE. The previous movie was Take The Lead and now Aquamarine! :)) There were some problems before that and Trishy kept nagging about it -_-" Almost everyone in st margs was taking 174. It was so flooded with people and there was an old uncle in front of me. He looked so fragile that I have to be really careful with my file in case it pokes him. *gulps* FINALLY after so long, we got down the bus and had fresh air. Hah. We rushed to Ceneleisure to buy tickets and snacks. We splitted the work up. Jane, Shali and JH buys the tickets while Me, Trishy, Celina and Leanne buys snacks. The person at the cashier serving us must be having a hard time. Hahaa. We kept going, "I want this. This. This. And this!" Haha! I'm so sorry sir! Girls are just so fickle minded :) Jia you! You were doing a nice job.

The movie was excellent! Sara Paxton is so PRETTY. I wanna be a mermaid! Haha. Both Celina and I were crying and Jane had tears in her eyes at the last part. It was so touching. I wouldnt mind watching it again! The experience sitting beside Celina during the movie was, NICE. Haha! She kept giving comments like, "Oh man! When is he gonna kiss the BLOODY girl?" Ahem. Haha. Both Wanda and her are 2 of a kind! Maybe they should sit together in a movie next time. Im sure they'll have fun. ^^ We went to look at cds after the movie then took neoprints! YAY. We had sucha hard time to drag Trishy and Leanne in!

Free Image Hosting at <a href= Try spotting the retarded jane with her specs. HAHA! Didnt know what happened to her then :D

Alright soon, me and Celina gotta leave. She for class and me BACK TO SCHOOL. We shared a cab cause we were both rushing for time. She got down first and me later. My heart was thumping so badly in the taxi. I was so so afraid cause it's SERIOUS - JEP. Thank god I was only 5 minutes late and had Mr Chan questioning me like a policeman. Yeah but Ms Lum was the nice one. I like her :)) Soon, Ms Lum told us about the 4 groups we were gonna be in. They consists of the Performing group, Entertainment, Packing of presents and Research. It's obvious that i would pick the first. Haha. So yeap, my new working partners and friends ARE.. *drum rolls* SARAH, STARSHA, JOEY, ARETHA, JESSICA and of course kattie. ^^

We are supposed to think of a performance to represent singapore. So we thought of FUSION ^^ I LOVE IT. We also had to do 2 posters for the Tateyama Alpine. Gosh, there so much to do so little time but Im sure we can do it! WHEEE. Kat came to my house after that and we just talked :) Nice nice. Okay done, I gotta go for dinner. BYE :D

I screwed screwed screwed my papers for today! Im so dead, alright! I didnt complete a thousand questions in the maths paper 1 before the time. AHH! And geogg! Why was I being sucha smartie pants yesterday by studying SO MUCH when there isnt a need to. So during the paper, I remembered things from the chapters that are not important and not knowing anything from the IMPORTANT chapters. I seriously regretted for being SO HARDWORKING. Im so so disappointed in myself cause today's papers are my ONLY HOPE! And now I dont see that hope anymore. Literature and maths paper 2 tmr. Man, wish me good luck. Im putting in effort by reading the whole of R&J. Please please put me through this test. I NEED A MIRACLE!
