In a few hours time, it'd be the end of 2009.
The start of 2010 awaits us.
I wouldn't say it's a good year.
But truth is, through this year, i've grown up.
I've learnt many lessons. Hurt but still, they are lessons. In life.
All in all, Goodbye, 2009.

goodbye, bobbie.

I went to dnt club's bbq yesterday. It was fun. :D We had this game that josie and gui er organized and it was really engaging, hitting the shuttlecock with anything that you got. I got a spoon and desiree got a hanger. It was hilarious while we tried to hit the shuttlecock with our 'utensils'. My spoon wasn't capable of hitting it back but i could only serve it. Whereas for Desiree, she had quite a great time with the hanger, managing to hit the shuttlecock back several times. After that Mr tay tried the hanger and it was pretty much of a failure while Paul hit back with his mini fan. It was like some chinese/ korean fan dance. That was hilarious.
After that was the bbq and quite a lot of talking and fooling around. Then, Desiree, Dionne, a girl whom i don't know the name and i were the last to leave as we were waiting for our parents to fetch. We talked while we waited and there were 2 packets of pringles (exotic flavours according to mr tay and they taste weird. Er i mean unique. Haha you get what i'm hinting) leftovers. We didn't know what to do with them as no one liked the flavours (which paul had mixed all the leftovers together into the 2 packets) and i gave it to the security guard on the way out. Alas! That settled the chips. :D
I woke up at 11 plus am today and was almost late for the movie Sherlock Holmes. I was to meet my new classmates in VJC at 1 20pm for the movie and i reached the mrt on time, but got lost and went the wrong direction. Luckily, a middle-aged man gave me directions when i asked him and i managed to make it there on time. I guess i should install some GPS or something in my phone. Sherlock Holmes was quite nice just that we got seats at the very front of the cinema and my neck ached while looking up to watch the screen and it was pretty uncomfortable. It was such a nice place to sleep but to not waste my money, i watched all the way through. It was awkward after the movie coz the gang of us didn't know what to do. In the end we ended up going home while Angela, Phoebe, Annabelle and probably Matthew walked to Orchard road from plaza singapura.

Haha i feel very proud of myself. I actually managed to find my way to the central library yesterday. And i wasn't really lost although i spent quite a lot of time looking for the maps and directories which i obviously found none that leads me to the library. Anyway, i asked this guy for directions and vague it may be, i found my way to the library. Mwahahaha. 厉害吧？Someone asked me for directions on the way and i'm as lost as she is so i couldn't point her the way. Do i even look like the kind of person with a good sense of direction? By the way, the central library is pretty cool and there are loads of books :D I had a great time reading. Someday i shall just go there for my reading sessions when i'm free.
I went to my aunt's house on 26th december. There was some sort of gathering with turkey and stuff, all the christmas food, and i almost got chased by the sickening dog. It licked my toe and as a result i hit the table, injuring my leg. In the end, i was avoiding the dog and walking away from him all along. (There'd be only bones left of me if i were to run.)  One good thing is that he didn't wait for me outside the toilet anymore. I was hunted down by him like some tasty meat the previous time. I'll never have dogs in my house. Just think of all the shit and saliva and you'll faint. Ewww.
I'll never make a loving, gentle, pet-loving girl. Though i'd much prefer horses to dogs.

Avatar is a very very very nice film. The director didn't fail everyone's expectations after his previous hit movie, titanic. The starting was kinda boring but gradually, it got really exciting and it triggers your emotions. If you watch the movie, you'd probably feel the same way as me and support the main lead (forgot name) in having a war against the humans. (Which is our own race) Humans' emotions vary and when one really becomes too ambitious and selfish, the outcome can be really terrifying. haha i guess that's just human nature. How pathetic it seems. It's worth your movie tickets so do catch it. :D Outliers isn't such a bad book after all, though i took like double the time to finish reading the book as compared to normal fiction books. But i've learnt much from the book so well, no regrets. There's one more book left to read and i've absolutely no idea where i should find it. Oh well, i'm happily spending my 'last days' reading books and guess what? I actually helped my grandma cook today. And i didn't ruin the kitchen. Wow. Plus it's edible. :D This time round, my brother has no choice but to eat the food that i cooked. Or he'll just have to starve. Mwahahaha. K so that's about it. Till something happens, i'll update my blog. Well, since it's pretty dead now maybe i'll consider closing it.

I've been hooked up on books recently. English, chinese and now, i'm starting on a non-fiction book about some story of success.(not that i want to read it, but i don't have a choice since its my homework) And i've so happily forgotten about my science and now i've got to read my textbook all over again. It's just a few more days, barely a month to school reopen and with all the festive season, i'm beginning to wonder whether i have prepared myself for the new year ahead already or is it that i haven't even prepared myself for it. I guess i'll just have to rush through all the homework and do all the necessary preperations before i face what lies ahead of me. No, i'm not gonna be freaked out by stress and since i chose this path, i shall walk down bravely. A few more years, i'd be able to break free and do what i really want to. I will be independant, i will depend on no one but myself and see how i fend. In a totally new world. Well, i'm gonna brace myself and when it's chinese new year, i may have to find myself some books from the library to last me through the boring hours of faking a smile to welcome relatives from all over Singapore. 4 more years. Doesn't seem too long huh? Well come to think of it, it's just 2 more years of science. Mwahahaha. Although there's always maths, but well, that's just school life. Cheers to my depleting days of holidays and freedom.

I found appelemando's dreams at last----children's edition. Full of pictures and not much substance. Just like some children's fairytales. -.-''' So now, i'm back to point one. I went to pasir ris library yesterday just to find that book and in the end it was of not much help. However, i did manage to find some other books to read, random ones, chosen because of the nice cover page. I just finished a chinese novel that i started reading yesterday evening, after borrowing it from the library and it was pretty nice. It was called 十七岁的法文课, lecon de dix sept ans, aka lesson at 17 years old. I kinda learnt a bit more french, and realised how not hardworking i had been, not being able to understand some of the french inside.
It's been a long time since i've visited anyone's blog and now that the holidays is coming to an end, i'm rather busy, rushing through lots of things. I guess i won't have the time to do blog hopping.

When the time comes, i'll summon my courage and bravely, with my head held high, i shall say goodbye to my past.

I went to Shenzhen with my cough, flu, sore throat medicine and came back with chinese herbs for my anemia and digestive system. Now is the slightly worse period of time for my anemia, when i'd feel giddy very easily. The physician also mentioned something about not being able to concentrate when studying because of my health problems. Headache now arghh.

back to singapore

HELLO EVERYONE I'm back!!! Yay! I love Singapore! Hong Kong is a very expensive place to shop and the people don't really speak chinese. I did a lot of walking with my family, taking the MTR and stuff. It was extremely infuriating, coz that brother of mine made us walk for like hours just to find his stuff and in the end his things were not found and my soles hurt like hell, forming blisters and all. Don't buy china shoes. They have very little cushion and made my legs hurt so much. Shenzhen was a very scary place. Really. The sales people would just follow you in the shop. There was this guy who was following behind me all along, in the end i started running in the shop and he chased after me, sticking close to my butt. Extremely uncomfortable. And if you don't want to buy their things, they will shout after you and in a way order you to go back. They were all very fierce. And there were beggers everywhere. I bet there were pickpockets everywhere. And they work in groups. While i was shopping, i noticed some males (young men) staring at me and when i start walking to another place, they'd pick up their phone and call someone. It makes me feel really uncomfortable. No sense of security. Sends shivers down my spine. EWWW. The people there spit phlegm everywhere. And i really mean everywhere. On the pavements where you walk, in the shopping centre, DISGUSTING. You walk on the road, it's wet. But it's not only the rain. It's mixed with their phlegm. GROSS. Things may be cheaper there but the quality is quite horrible and they cheat your money. You have to bargain but when you do so, be thick skinned. If not you'll be frightened by them. And i really mean it. They are FIERCE. Scary place. I wouldn't want to go back there again. Singapore is the best. Even though the weather there is nice and cooling, Singapore is still the best.

I'll be leaving to shenzhen and Hong Kong this sunday, till 10 December. So, if you do not mind paying extra cash, feel free to sms or call me. :D

LG viewty smart

Yes, i'm still sick. With the usual sore throat and the sickening cough. However, there's one thing to be happy about and that is that i've changed my phone!!! LG viewty smart. 8mp and touch screen. It's cool. :D Unlimited sms now so feel free to spam me! :)

Let's do a quiz. Flu, cough and sore throat. Which one costs you most?

Answer: flu
Why?
1) You need to buy lots and lots of tissue
2) At night, you'll most probably have blocked nose, which means more money spent on medicine such as the vicks inhaler
3) You can't have a good night's sleep and you won't have the energy the next day
4) You feel as if you can't breathe throughout the day when your blocked nose comes back to you whenever you settle down at one place

Hence, be it a sore throat or a fever, do not catch a flu because the consequences are dire. I HATE BEING SICK!!!
