a pack of soothers later
seeing as methods awaits, i'll keep this blog short and sweet.
yesterday was the first day of school.
it was draining.
it was tiring.
it went by quick.
it held lots of "how was your holidays?".
it killed my brain.
i woke up sick.
i woke up tired.
i woke up un-optimistic.
i went to school,
i went to hockey training,
i taught piano.
i did my homework,
i practiced piano & violin,
i went to target with mummy and grocery shopping.
by the time i studied methods, i was half falling asleep...
...though i slept at 10.30 (how early is that?!), i was so tired, i fell asleep before my head even hit the pillow.
today we had a fiddler performance at chapel.
that let me miss art and english.
it sounded crap.
and now i am sick;
i've finished an entire pack of soothers just today.
i ♥ blackcurrent + vitamin c soothers.
and now i'm off to study diferentiation and first principles and dy/dx.
xoxo

a holiday well spent
photo: unseen princess; triptych #1
taken by me for year 10 photography, 2008.
after my last blog, i feel i must assure you all that I AM NOT EMO. and seriously, i wish i could tell you all what i was blogging about, but it's not that big a deal, and plus it's something that if you see me often enough, you'll find out about soon enough!
i hope you are all enjoying this new template for my blog. it kinda annoys me that all my photos and music player is to the right & not in the middle.. i have no idea why!
tomorrow is back to school, and as i look back on these holidays, i actually dnt regret anything i've done, and i've got to say, i've thoroughly enjoyed these holidays. in between the sleepovers, movies, food, gloria jeans coffees, shopping sprees, bumming around and wii fit, i've got to say i've actually grown closer to some of you. i've come to see who i consider as my closest friends, and it's not very suprising to me, but might be to people who just see me from the outside, and who see the people i usually hang out with. this group of friends do include: Adri, Isaac & Jerry. i dnt think i've ever laughed as hard as i have at that proud peacock lunch that wednesday.
i dnt regret cramming all my homework into work experience week, or finishing "to kill a mockingbird" on the train to work ex. i dnt regret sleeping over at grace's that thursday night -- i learnt from that. i dnt regret seeing the flawed sides and realising a lot of things about my friends, especially those who i always considered my 'best friends'.
these holidays have taught me a lot. i've laughed, cried, gotten angry, frustrated, fat, learnt guitar, played the entire fiddler score, met new people, grown apart and close to God and reminisced over old memories.
please pray for me, because i think me and God have a long way to go at the moment.
stay tuned for first day of school rantings tomorrow!

insecurities
Photo: Fitzroy Carpark by Zaldy
Ever wonder why you worry about such small things when you know there are much bigger things in life to worry about - like famine and poverty - but yet you can't seem to get over the small worry?
It's like you know that you're worrying about something so tiny and insignificant, and you know you shouldn't really be bothered with it at all, and yet after trying to convince yourself to stop worrying about it, you can't. you try and picture children starving, and you repeat over and over again in your head how unimportant and minute your problem/worry is but yet you still can't stop caring about it. you know it's definitely not the end of the world, but it still doesn't cease to feel like it. you are assured over and over again by people around you that 'it's not a big deal' but you know they'll never understand because you yourself don't understand why it's even such a big deal to you. you tell yourself to stop thinking about it, and yet your mind tends to wander and you end up thinking about it anyway.
you know it's not like this will change anything, but you have a feeling it will. all your insecurities that you thought you had dealt with come flooding back too fast. you suddenly wish you had someone who understood what you felt about all this, but you know nobody will ever understand why all of a sudden you were so insecure again.
you know this won't change your relationships with people and especially not with God, but there's something that tells you it will.
i wish i could say, i wish i could not care. WHY AM I EVEN WRITING THIS?!

F.R.I.E.N.D.S
hey everyone,
i know the blog header looks.. well not the best, but i couldnt stand not having a blog header, so i just quickly made one on photoshop.. i promise i'll fix the entire blogskin VERY SOON!!
the past few days have been crazy - leading to a lack of blog posts.. sorry to you who actually bother to check my blog often enough =) accept my deepest apologies.
well a quick update then :
after sleepover with adri, on wednesday, we all became little nerds and went to do methods homework. a group of us met at chris kotze's house and watched 'run fatboy run' and ate some sandwiches and junk. then, mrs kotze took us to school (yes school) and she taught us methods for 1 1/2 hours..lol we were so nerdy, but i was so proud of myself cos soon after that whole thing, i finished all my holiday methods hw, and i get it.. woohoo!!
on thursday, i had a full day fiddler rehearsal - from 9-5 - that was a drainer!! and then i went to isaac & jerry's house for a sleepover and friend's marathon. i met up with jan & ann & joce and we watched singaporean movies and then watched step up 2 and friends. after that, we had a very late night mee goreng competition between ann and isaac (and ann won) and then isaac made me a milo dinasour w/ chai =) lol. then we watched more friends while eating mee goreng and then we gradually fell asleep. then next day, we were woken up by adri who arrived at 9 AM and we commenced watching friends and eating breakfast. after this, we watched some more friends, dance videos and watching puah choo kang. then, we had lunch and watched kim possible. lol was lots of fun =)
tonight i'm going to unc. yu choy's for dinner.
had a good talk with ann and jan about lots of things.. and i kinda envy them for having the privillage of attending fungus. oh well, i know God has his plans for me, and that's clearly not with fungus. my life story never ceases to amuse people =)
will blog more later, but for now, i kinda gtg!!
miss you fungusses,
