Its official. My blog has collapsed into a fit of perpetual stagnation.
Rather prefer the old fashioned method of writing in a diary but fingers felt itchy today and anyway thought i'd honour chee kueh and laura by posting something- even if it means utterly useless ramblings.
My farthead of a brother is away on camp. (whoopee) Because that means i finally get to use the computer. . . This is ridiculous. hmph.
Have totally disregarded early moning runs with huda. So much for ambitous plans at battling obesity. Its such a painful and slow process.
Tomorrow new spartan health and diet regime shall begin.
Its bloody frigging hot.
Am going to consume strawberry ice cream and turn into repulsive blob of blubber.
(excusable, since need to console self before getting back shitty exam results tomorrow)
For you, I will cry black tears.

this blog has been absolutely dead. i cant stand it.
ANYWAY.
sji-ij camp was good. i had the great oppourtunity to be in liyang's group. again.
the guys in my group were...okay i guess. haha.
and sji closing ceremony rocked. like, who knew roderick the mamasan could dance?
haha, and its been nearly a week since camp but everyone's still talking and reenacting all the different funny stories about the guys.
bill goes hyper everytime someone mentions this dude.
everyone laughs everytime someone mentions another dude.
we're all trying to mimic the way honky dude talks (but failing to do so. miserably.)
and everyone wants to know if micheal the gay guy is really gay.
plus all the great scandals everyone wants to know about.
but we dont really get the real truth because they're all fake and exaggerated anyway.
well, almost.
haha. i love council.
OH.
and i kinda screwed up exco interviews.
okay, so i did screw up exco interviews.
well at least now you know who's not gonna get into exco. =(
For you, I will cry black tears.

3 camps in one week!!!!!
can you believe the injustice of it all? not that im complaining since i always enjoy all the camps i attend but our march hols are totally gone! i mean, whats the point of calling it a holiday when you're coming back to school everyday anyway? as much as how excited i am about all the coming camps, i cant help feeling a bit bitter because im looking at my workload of projects and assignments and all i want to do is fly a kite and erase that whole chunk of work from my memory and pretend i didnt see it.
anyway i wanna post about sec 3 adventure camp.
haha. it so totally rocked my socks in my undies drawer! i love love love my camp instructors and i love love love my class and how we remained so united through it all.
we cheered. haha we cheered like hell! especially during the ropes course when our girls were having difficulty conquering the challenges. haha. and the way they cheered was so heartwarming and funny, we all ended up laughing when we were up there. im so proud of my prata, christine! we managed to complete the team challenge together and she helped me up all the way! i was being a shit scared chicken but she kept on urging me on and she even asked me whether i wanted to sing when we were dunno how many metres above ground on that bloody rope structure. i love my christine! and my girls who were singing 'we are family', the song i always sing to annoy. haha. yay.
we sang. yes, we drove each other nuts by our amateur singing. especially during our record breakthrough of 'the song that never ends', which we sang for about 15-20mins straight during the amazing race. haha. and of course the dunno how many other thousand camp songs we got hooked to. we even made songs for our instructors, ras and simon, who were really the best people we could ever get. and our songs drew them off their rockers as well! i love my class lah.
and we laughed, and cried. everything was so extreme. im so glad we're all much closer now. i mean, i didnt know joy and i could have a quick shower in 2 mins. i would never have dreamt that huda would be washing my hair after the campfire when it was close to midnight. i never knew bill would bring her luggage along (haha!). who would have guessed that savina could do such a great impersonation of a rat/mouse. i didnt dream that debo and i would be holding hands and muttering about wedgies during our night trail without our torches. i never envisioned jumping of the boat with bonnie and christine and waddling about in the water because the three of us couldnt swim. haha. we're pathetic eh.
we're definitely a much closer class now. god, i hope this carries on throughout the year.
ANYWAY. yesterday was the first camp that the sec 3 councillors got to organise. it was the combined primary and scondary school camp with ij primary. it went pretty well considering how screwed up i thought it would be because everything seemed so disorganised. but thank god, we managed to pull it off so yeah, we did good. could have been better though. im so thankful for yifen, ali, the exco, all the organisers and the teachers for all they did. i think i would have gone mad if not for their support. i hope it didnt look like i was running a one man show, because it seriously wasnt like that. everyone did their part, no matter how small it was. and i was sad that we couldnt really keep to schedule. i cant stand that everything had to be so rushed because of the time limit.
but the experience was priceless.
its like, 'oh. now i know how the exco feels like when they organise camps'
2 more camps to go and already im feeling like an overused tyre. but i must be positive lah. who knows what might happen in the coming week.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!
even though it might be shittified packed busy like mine!
For you, I will cry black tears.

helloooo all!!!!!!!!!
i've got so much stuff to do and so little time and i think im going to burst a blood vessel soon. stress stress stress!!!!
went to the acjc fun fair with some of the councillors. whoot.
that was extra extra crazy and i tell you, eye candy everywhere man!
oh oh oh! had brunch with rach lim today. like finally lah. we have been planning to go out sinve forever but both of us couldnt find time and all. so today was good. it was just a simple catching up over lunch thing, but im glad we did it anyway. talking to her about stuff just made me realise how much some of us have changed now that we're all in sec 3. i think its quite sad the way some stuff are turning out to be. and miss them so much.. oh well.
and valentines day was great! 3/8 had this whole angel valentine thing where everyone had to give their angel a small present and we were all so enthusiastic about it. yay. and all the lovely pretty presents and sinful sweets from all the nice nice people. i love valentines day!
i cant wait for adventure camp and combined camp and all the nonsense camps and events that are coming up! i hope our class can really give it our all in terms of rah rah spirit.
hopefully.
For you, I will cry black tears.

Today was a long crazy day.
The health screening was a bit crappy because i had to take off my shirt for the forward bending test. lLuckily i wore a nice presentable looking bra.
Lit class was super cool today. mrs alex showed us a video of the play macbeth and it was quite old. Joy and i were making fun of the three witches looking like hagrid from harry potter and how king duncan looked like that king dude from lord of the rings. and we were also wondering how that bloody man could go on and on and on talking when he was terribly injured. And it was quite a disappointment when none of the cast were good looking. We were like "hah...?" when mrs alex pointed out macbeth to us. Somehow, i guess everyone was under the impression that macbeth was this great good looking hunk much like brad pitt in troy. But sadly, macbeth was a far cry from that.
Angie got really excited when the blockings of the actors suggested some gay implications.
But the best part came during the scene when lady macbeth was doing some really crazy stuff to herself that really appeared very WRONG. Of course the whole thing was about lady macbeth going nuts and going on about evil and blah de blah. But judging from the squels of laughter coming from the whole class, i think everyone was interpreting the whole scene as something else. Goodness me Angie was so excited. Laura kept on hiding behind her file as if wishing the whole scene to disappear. And Joy and I were having a ball of a time laughing and quoting the text after the lesson.
Haha. yay. i love mrs alex.
Anyway my class had our first unofficial meeting today after school. Things are starting off quite smoothly considering alot of us are very separated into our own cliques. Savina's really good and sistematic, she has all sorts of plans for the class. It was really cool to bond with the rest. Haha. Talk about class spirit.
Anyway i got back at 10.45pm today. Its been one heck of a long crazy day. First there was ld and then after a crazy dinner of cup noodles and mash potato, Gabby Samira and I had to rush off to sec 1 parents night duty. After our duty, the rest of us lounged around at the prefects room and gossiped a bit and panicked about student leaders invest, because there was so much to do but so little time. Conversation topics ranged from our teachers, g string and lots more. Their quite a loony bunch. You would never have guessed that underneath that serious exterior the councillors tend to project, their quite as mental as any other teenager.
But the most memorable part of the night was lying under the stars at the basketball court during time off from duty when we were supposed to be having our comm meeting. It was quite crazy- the sight of councillors lying down and staring up into the endless sky, feebly trying to count the stars. Then joy suggested running round the track. So they ran round the track. It looked like so much fun that samira and i decided to join them. So we did! We joined joy, dan, sin yee, ning xin, lee boon and the rest. It was bloody shiok, running round the track with the cool night breeze blowing against our hair and laughing like we didnt have a care in the world. Super cool. I felt like a kid all over again. Haha, this is so sad. Im longing for my childhood.
Then after that we lay down again and reminded each other to do this whole star gazing excercise for camps if any of us were to be part of the exco in future. That reminded me of the fact that amongst us, there will be those who would be promoted or elected as exco. Lately, there has been alot of guessing about who would get in and even guessing who would be head for our batch. All these changes seem exciting, yet intimidating at the same time. I dont know why, but i always feel a tinge of sadness when i think of all these. Maybe it was the whole mood when we were lying down there. I just cant help thinking how different things would be amongst us when part of us move on to become exco. Very bittersweet.
For you, I will cry black tears.

nowadays i have this insane craving for prata and candy. not prata with candy. i mean prata. and then candy.
weird.
and its scary how singapore's so small that everyone seems to be related in one way or another. lets say my friend A knows my other friend B who's mom taught A's brother, C, whom i also know and who's girlfriend's pet cat is related to my aunt's cat blah blah blah that sort of long story. Everytime i go out its impossible to not bump into someone you know. Its not like im complaining or anything. But SINGAPORE'S SO SMALL!!!
My aunt (the one who married the aussie) came over today. She brought her two daughters along, Safira and Arisa. They're gorgeous. Safira's this hyper little thing who trots around and her golden brown curls fly everywhere and she's so so cute! Arisa's only a few months old and she's such a pretty little adorable baby! Both of them have lovely eyes, they're grayish blue, and they're not even using fake contacts. Its au natural man... I WANT THEIR EYES!
and they're all moving to london. and im so going to miss them and this is so unfair and i should seriously stop whining and go to sleep.
i like mr jiow's nose.
For you, I will cry black tears.
