3e4 Jalan Rayer today. They're meeting up at Pasir Ris int at 10.30am. My house is the first house so i get to "chill" at home first. Hopefully Nad won't get them lost. So bloody early they want to meet. But i'm not complaining. Bcos if it weren't for me, they won't be doing this today rite? They rush things so tt i can go jalan raya wif them. How nice of them. I love my frens. So i'm typing this until they come.
Anyway, been pretty busy lately wad wif the visiting relatives, making kueh, eating kueh, salam-ing them, asking for forgiveness etc. $ Collection this yr? Not that great. But it's like every other year. It was NEVER great. But oh well. Nvm.
The Champion's over. That's fast. But then again they played the show every single night even if it is a public holiday. I missed the ending yesterday. Who did Kaiwei end up with? Jingwen or Yixuan ah? I'm hoping Jingwen. They make a better couple.
Alrite, enuff abt the Champion already. Just wanted to say SELAMAT HARI RAYA to anyone who's everyone who's reading my blog who just might be a Muslim(that wld be everyone who's reading ym blog rite?). Maaf zahir dan batin. I hate asking for forgiveness. But tt's always a necessary thing. Oh well. Time check: 10.35am. And they're still not here yet. It takes abt 5-10 mins to reach my house frm the int. Guess sum ppl are late (as usual). Hopefully, their high heels aren't gg to get caught by anything in tt forest they're gonna haf to walk thru. Heh heh.. tt'll be a funny sight.

last night//The strokes
Wednesday, November 10, 2004
Yesterday was exhausting. Woke up at abt 12(heh heh)..Started making kueh(s) at 2. I -Ok, fine it wasn't only me. Did it with my eldest sis- made cookies. My mum refuses to make any kueh this year (don't ask). So, my sis thought if there's no kueh, wad are we gg to offer our "guests"? So we took matters in our own hands. In the process, I found out stg new: Cooking can be quite tiring.
Yeah, anyway, baked up till 4.30pm. Went out hunting for Dira's present with tt kueh smell sticking on me. And i found out there's a shop named Ice Lemon Tee. Wad nonsense. Searching for Dira's present was tiring yet fun. Bcos we were quite panicky. After we're done, went to popular to rite - scribble, more like- a msg on tt box. So, u better appreciate wad we've bought for u ah Dira. Better still, KEEP THE BOX!
Dinner was fun. I wasn't the clumsy one yesterday, eh? Dira's turn. And dun say it's influenced by me ah.. Dira's jinxed. Seriously. Muahaha.. Anyway, i liked the relighting candle (the cari pasal candle). Haha.. good for pissing ppl off. SO, we had a good time (right?). Walked ard. Bought 2 CDs (yesh dira, i owe u). And after tt, went home. Ahhhh... Wad a nice day.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DIRA!!!

why does it always rain on me// Travis
Monday, November 8, 2004
Alrite. Yesterday was cleaning day. I was in charge of wood. I had to polish any piece of wood i can find in the house. But i also cleaned tt big round glass table beside my kitchen. So HANDS OFF till raya comes. But i'm not complaining. Some of my other siblings had to the windows and step out on the roof. The roof is utterly disgusting to step on. There's bat droppings.. bat food.. etc. I still can't believe raya is in wad? 5 or 6 days. Too fast. I can hardly keep up. Mum still not making any kueh. I guess i sld start making them. But hu'll pay for the ingredients and all tt? The curtains hung at my house this year is yellow and white btw (bad combination? I dunno.). Horrible. Horrible. Horrible.
So, there was this Travis acoustic concert playing yesterday on Ch 5 at 1.30pm. Did anyone catch it? They played in Singapore. But the concert was abt 3 yrs back. Oh well, i wanna get their 'Singles' CD. Their music is all mellow and nice. Hmm.. shall i go on a limp and buy the CD? Honestly, i've nvr own a Travis Cd. Hmm.. i dunno.
Went to Geylang last Sat in the afternoon. Before all the mats and minahs arrive. Ahaha.. In the afternoon, there's all sorts of ppl really. But not tt many minahs/mats. A lot of Makciks and all tt. Oh, and i (Well not me. My siblings. They told me. I was with them but i didn't see.) saw Douglas O. Yesh.. the Sg Idol judge. At the Geylang Bazaar. Unbelievable.
Can't wait for tmr. Honestly, i haven't asked my mum yet. But she did mention tt she'll allow me to go if it's just at whitesands or tamp or stg. Let's see wad she'll say tmr. (normally if i ask her abt 1 week earlier than the date itself she'll just say "ask me another day". Wad the?).
The Swensens' outing sounded fun. Read it off Mal's blog. Too bad i cldn't go. My mum didn't allow obviously. I wonder when will i ever be allowed to go to a place as far as Parkway (or even Orchard)? Probably not until i'm ,say, 20? Ahh.. wad the hell. Why does it always rain on me?

This week has been one uneventful (in other words, boring) week. Extended studies is really dull but having it in comp lab 3 is good. I wish ALL lessons throughout the year can be conducted there. So here's a sum up of this week:-
Monday: Boring day. Rot at home the whole bloody day while a whole bunch of ppl were doing their MT o'level ppr in the hall.. Heh heh..
Tuesday: The beginning of the week. Felt like a Monday really. No flag raising. Was quite lost. Had chem first period. Wad a way to start the day. Snoorie went missing. Got the class worried sick (yes snoor, we do (apparently) care for u tau)
Wednesday: boring. boring. boring. If i'm not wrong, this is the day where we met Cruella at TM. Shocking, eh? And i didn't tink she had a life. (i tot she spent all her time tinking of ways to torture pupils OR thinking of wad jokes she can say in class) Well, apparently not.
Thursday: Dira was absent. Swollen face bcos of a toothache? Wish u had taken a photo. Tt'd be interesting. And i can laugh my head off. Muahaha.. Cruella went berserk. Ok, i'm exaggerating. But again she didn't have to react tt way. And Ee fang did say sorry, she was just wayyy to deaf to hear her. She appologized a few times actually. Guess she really wasn't satified eh? Ee Fang was sent out of the classroom (or comp lab). We finally got to know why cruella was acting tt way. She had a very sad, fun-deprived childhood. She was telling us all about it. Oh, how very fascinating. I was trying hard to care really.
Friday (today): Nad nvr come. Wad la. She take turns with Dira is it? Today was quite uneventful oso. It was our last lesson wif Mrs Koh!!! Mann, she was a geat teacher. Notice tt there's a lot of teachers leaving our skool this yr: hmm, Mrs Koh, Mr Lim Ah Beng and Mr Tan (si) ying. Okkk.. maybe it's not a lot. But they're all good teachers (perhaps with the exception of Mr Tan) and they are all on the good side. Wad la. Abandoners.
Tearin' up my heart and soul, when we're apart I feel it too
And no matter what I do I'll feel the pain with or without you -- tearing up my heart// 'n sync. (dun ask.)

Hey. Check yesterday's date (301004) and check out the date on the right side of this blog. Guess wad day it is yesterday. Yup. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! Heh heh.. I feel so old all of a sudden. hmm.. Anyway, got 2 surprise visits yesterday. 1 frm faz and amirah (too bad farahin cldn't make it..hmph) and the other frm Nad, dira n saha (wif her tudung n all..aiyoh). THANK YOU for coming over to my house and make my day! After all, i tot i was gg to be stuck at home and be a couch potato the whole bloody day. But hey guess wad we did at my house? "Hang out and just chill and watch the flat-screened TV" Guess hu said tt. Nadiiiiira. There was ntg much to do anyway since we were all fasting n can't really do much. Ah well.
A huge THANKS for all ur gifts. =) I like them very much!! Tt includes, the mirror, the CD, the bag and everything else! THANK YOU sotongs!! Sorry, i didn't play the damn drums but hey, u got to me hear me on the recorder instead.. heh heh.. OH well. All in all it was all in good fun: The ringing of the doorbell (the first time round i actually tot it was the newspaper man, wanting to collect the bill for the newspaper. then i wondered y he wld be hiding behind the fence..) I got captured. I got fooled by faz and amirah (giving me a kueh lapis as a birthday cake?? but they gave me a slice of cake oso..). I smiled. I laughed. And had a stupidly gd time.
Afterwards, had dinner at magic wok wif my family. Got an ice-cream cake frm Swensens' (yumm). And yeah, "celebrate" back at home. And i saw Dory and my pri sch fren at whitesands. My siblings got me "Room on the 3rd floor". Apparently, it was btwn McFly n SP. Allerrmak. But they oso got me 30bucks worth of gift vouchers frm CD-Rama and popular oso. So nvm. Dad got me an MP3 player. I noe wad ur thinking..woah. But i already haf a discman. Call me lucky if u will but i dun really noe how to work the damn thing. THANKS again! And one more thing: GOOD LUCK for those taking the malay O-level ppr tmr!! And Happy Haloween!(if anyone celebrates it..)
Oh, one last note. To this one person, if ur reading this, We're gonna miss having u in class. U were the one hu always put a smile on my face in class and crack up jokes for everyone. Gonna miss u partner. :(

'Still Not Getting Any...' is OUT!!! Woo-hoo-hoo (it's all been done)! Can't wait to get my hands on them. So today is promotion day. I wonder if i haf to drop any subjects, considering how badly i did for final yrs, i guess i'll hafta drop, say, A Maths?
So there was the intr-cls netball yesterday. Didn't get a chance to play even tho i really wanted to play. So i was a reserve. But can't they substitute? It's one thing to make me wake up early in the morn to train and another to make me sit at the sidelines and watch the game. So i'm fasting. But tt doesn't make a very gd excuse. There's a fine line btwn watching the game and actually playing in the game. Watching the game is fun. It makes ur voice go hoarse cheering the ppl on and also gives rise to an urge in u to make u want to play. Ok, maybe i'm toking nonsense here but hey, what i'm saying may be true.
Watching our class play was a little frustrating, don't you tink? Guess the team just needed a little bit more(or perhaps a lot more) practice.. Ah well, nvm bout tt. CONGRATULATIONS(and celebration..),anyway, to the winning teams!
The dialogue and the talk after tt was plain boring. But i guess it's better than the usual day in skool?? The dialogue didn't affect me much. Give or take. Ppl gotta learn tt. They've got to compromise. Besides, the rule doesn't affect me much so i don't really give a damn. And rules are after all meant to be broken rite?
I still haven't gotten my ss txtbk. Hard to find. No idea where my bro put his old txtbk. And i dun tink the normal bkshops haf stock up on the txtbks yet. Got to get my hands on them before thurs. Hopefully, the skool bkshop haf or i'm done for. But if the skool bk shop is out of stock, we can use tt as an excuse... But then again, it's cruella we're toking abt. Got a feeling she'll say we didn't try hard enuff or somewhere along those lines. Tt unreasonable woman.
Oh, one more thing:HAPPY BELATED BURFDAE SAF!!!!
"So if you're lonely,
You know i'm here waiting for you,
I'm just a crosshair,
I'm just a shot away from you
And if you leave here
You leave me broken shattered alive
I'm just a crosshair
I'm just a shot..then we can die

OK. So results are depressing so far. No As. I tink i've collected more than, say, 20 points? Horrible ah.. A Maths was pissifying. Careless mistakes here and there. And i needed two bloody hell marks to pass!! Wth. How can you be positive with all this negativity surrounding you? U tell me. The windows are closed now, mal.. Haha.. I'm missing an element? Wad nonsense only..
I've been wondering y wld u wanna say 'sorry' or (for example) 'i love you' without actually meaning it? Isn't tt just a pain to the other person? Esp in this holy (not holey ah faz..remember the pronounciation? muahaha) month.. You can say the words but can you show it? If they can't, then obviously it's simply bullshit. So why bother?
Buck up ppl. Or we'll be dead nxt yr. The teachers are really bringing us down. Our cohort is nonsensical.
I think i'm falling down,
Down, down, down.

CHANGE....
Monday, October 18, 2004
Change is imminent. In this time, in this space. Give me one good thing abt life rite now. There's ntg positive. But hey, it's the fasting month. I'm not s'pose to be all negative, am i? Ah well.
Waiting for another one and a half hour to..er.. freedom? Nah.. just waiting to satisfy my throat and my stomach. Till then, i'm here to suffer. Went to "training" just now at knc. I took over Nadira. Not sure if it's gd or bad. But doesn't matter, i'm just a reserve.

stabbed. again & again.
Sunday, October 17, 2004
Hmm.. just when u thought everything was back to normal (dull and boring), ur whole life turns upside down. The last thing i need is a whole bunch of ppl to feel sorry for me.
The one thing i hate about life is confrontation. Agree?(if u dun then too bad la). Ever felt like ur whole life is being pulled down into a drain? Feel like you've been stabbed over n over again? Feel like life is useless? Tt's wad i'm gg thru. Now i sound like tt depression advertisement.
But hey, i am depressed. And supressing myself. Bullshit la. Think i'll just hafta pull myself together.
