Temptation
HAHA. TEMPTATION? Please don’t think wrongly.
Got tempted to blog, that’s what.
Practical was so screwed up. Heck, half the stuff wasn’t in syllabus??? Mr L said Physics was easy. Damn, maybe I should have taken that. Biology and Chemistry had stuff which weren’t really in the syllabus. How sucky is that? Fine, I shall stop complaining.
O levels are around the corner. Wait. O levels are going on right now. Is it stress? Or rebellion? I feel like watching TV. So I watched and the only thing that seemed “watchable” show was Polo Boys.
Gosh, other than eye candy, even Michelle Chia and Pierre Png couldn’t live it up. (Speaking of Pierre Png, anybody watching Blue Mansion?) Not even the oh-so-hot Nathaniel Ho. Sigh. Disappointing. So now I’m just waiting for blog.tv to start. Woohoo. That’s real TV, watching the Flying Dutchman and can’t-remember-his-name-at-the-moment-that-TODAY-writer shooting words regarding current issues.
Disappointing TV. If only Channel News Asia has more documentaries.

Graduant’s Tears
As much as I said I wouldn’t blog, just a few words to define today.
To be filled with happiness and to be filled with a tinge of sadness at the same time is a terrible position to be in indeed. Happy that you are finally out of this school but sad that the routine that you have been living for the past four years will never be the same again..
And how your life is changing, evolving..
Which reminds me of Avril Lavigne’s Mobile lyrics:
Everything’s changing, every where I go,
All out of my control, I’m a mobile..
Very true, really. Her Let Go album seems to perfectly describe various stages of my teenage life. Each song for each stage.. No wonder it was so celebrated.
Anyway, I would like to thank everyone,
for the happy memories for they will always make me smile,
and, as for the sad ones, good for me because they make me stronger.
The past four years.. I experiened my lowest lows, my highest highs, my first special someone, did many things that I thought I would never dare do, defined what I really want in life, and got to know who I am. I even (kind of) made friends with teachers, have/had my fair share of haters, realised what true friends really mean and how one’s looks may be deceiving. And not to forget all the crazy things I did as a Girl Guide! I’m sure GGs agree with me.. How crazy we were!
I learnt how to blend in with different, uhm, types of people, different forms of communication, different lifestyles and heck, I think I did a pretty good job considering the Cempakan lifestyle that I was so accustomed to. Life as a Queenswayan is indeed different. You must be street smart to survive (so you won’t get into trouble with the wrong people) and at the same time the equilibrium between being cocky and polished is volatile as the lines are so blurred in this environment.
You also realise that the people who may be the highest in the hierarchy of the student body is not as great as you think. In fact, they are actually the most corrupted. You realise how teachers may be biased towards (me) some people and how easily one can get away with so many things if you are in the right books.
(Yes, I do realise the “previleges” that I somehow, unwantedly, seem to get and I know your grievances.)
Wow, 376 words already. I shall stop now. Many people keep saying that my posts are too wordy. Hey, it fits the criteria of our English paper. Okay, shall stop being lame.. Signing off!
Wait, before I do, I’m quite heartened to see that people still do check my blog. Teehee. Too bad too sad. Wait for 11th of November!

What Happened To Us?
My lips are sealed,
Though my hands really itch,
To wake you up from this dream that you are living in.
Go on, but I hope you’ll never regret,
Just to let you know I’m never coming back.

Just So You Know
Just in case (since there’s one person with a knife on my neck for pictures, I’m hoping the rest wouldn’t be that anxious..), I will only be bloggin after my O’s.
Last paper, Science MCQ on the 11th of November. Oh man, I’m counting down to my freedom. I am tempted to burn my books.. haha, just for the fun of it, but thinking about the pollution.. no thanks.
I want to stop feeling stupid (studying makes me feel stupid)! And stop feeling like such a… Singaporean student (we mug all day).
Okay, I’m not making sense! This just proves how much my brain cells are killed. I didnt blog for more than a blog. I believe I can let this page rot till the 11th.
So, stay tuned. I will turn on my computer all night, blog all night for all the important events: Aesthetic Night, National Day, Graduation Ceremony, *some very important occasion* (big cheeky smile), last day of school and updates of prom which will be on the 18th. Hey! I’m in charge of publication *smirks*
For now, I’m out. So stop nagging me for the pictures. I will throw them here at one shot.

Reminescence
Okay, I’m currently procrastinating- EXTREMELY. I actually logged into Facebook, looked at comments, saw some, erm, interesting updates (I realised someone is single- which shocked me- meaning, that person broke up) and even stumbled onto a page of a very old friend.
My oh my, she looks so different. She’s probably somewhere in Singapore right now, spending her summer holidays. She probably has a British accent too and drinks, maybe (I’m just inferring from her comments and photoes- they looked pretty wild). It was shocking ‘cos she- like hello, we are talking about HER here- was the most innocent, goody-two-shoes, stubborn, perfectionist, smartest ass that I know.
Let’s just say when two stubborn perfectionists collide.. we didn’t click.
In fact, we hated each other (but I don’t now).
A thought just occurred to me- does she remember me? Most probably she does- how can she not? I don’t think I can ever forget her too ‘cos its during those instances when we had those petty childish 9-year-olds’ argument that I learnt what humility and giving in to other people is all about. Without her, I really doubt I’d be who I am today.
And heck, I did say extremely nasty words that made her cry (I never cried because of her).
Okay, now guilt is creeping back to me. We were 9-year-olds! Oh gosh.
I wonder how it feels to meet up with her. Probably she’s alot more intellectual (as expected) and probably can argue with you with regards to topics like the Iraq War? She is, after all, studying at a boarding school in England.. I assume that it’s prestigious (of course it has to be- she’s a genius! Who finished grade 8 before secondary school- for music theory, piano AND violin?).
And here I am in Singapore, studying for my O levels, highly doubtful that I can accomplish what I aim for, where I aim to go. I badly want..
I swear, I will study for _ hours a day during study break. How I wish I had actually cut out The Sunday Times article of that RJC guy who topped his Law class in Oxford (Oxford, if I’m not wrong). I could then stick it on my wall to remind myself how hard people had worked to get there.
Sigh.

Heart A Stumbling
First, would like to apologise to SL and XE for not uploading the pictures. Sorry! When I gather the time. This weekend- I promise! Or just get Facebook and get them from YN. HAHA.
I just found out that The Ultimatum (the 9pm show on Channel 8, Mediacorp TV) is sung by Jade Liu. Anyone knows what’s the title of the theme song?
Days have been tough and I only realised yesterday. Thank you Mrs P, thank you very much for your kindness thus far.

It’s OVER
FINALLY! I can’t believe it’s finally over. Here are some interesting facts:
1. We only slept for 5 hours throughout the 4 days 3 nights camp
2. We managed to learn the ability to fall asleep- standing
3. We’re all equally crazy in some way or another
HAHA. Well, tiring it may be, I think I would like to thank the TERRIFIC 12 for the wonderful memory. It is after all my last camp as a GIRL GUIDE and I would like to thank you all for the wonderful time. It may not had been all fun, games and laughter but the going through of hardships that binds us together and makes us stronger. Really, thank you very much, from the bottom of my heart.
Thanks to some people for their motivational messages (which I only get to see at about 3am in the morning when we’re free to even go to sleep). It’s been very heart warming and I promise you that I had performed to the best of my ability and hopefully, will not disappoint you all.
Also, the staggering number of hours that I had clamoured yesterday till this morning. After showering upon reaching home, it was about 3pm when I plonked dead with my hair wet, woke up ay 9pm to blow dry my hair and plonked dead again till this morning at 9.30am. Imagine that!
The coming back of civilisation was also quite scary as news the H1N1 seems to be getting worse. I can’t believe Cempaka has been hit with it and I really do hope that everyone’s fine there. Even LL.. Aaaaah.
But the thought of washing hands is kind of painful for me. My hands are swollen now from all the washing at camp (I have eczema, a genetic condition) and hence.. sigh, all for the sake of camp I actually wash things (I usually don’t and am also not really allowed to). Sorry, that’s the spoilt brat in me talking.
Anyway, brain is kind of dead now but I know I have to do my Chemistry and Math. SHUCKS. And Social Studies project too. And tests!!! Sigh, never ending work. Better get started on Chem or else Mr L will nag like crazy!
Get some sleep everybody!

P&O, thus far..
Seriously speaking, I don’t think I have ever, ever put in so much blood, sweat and tears into one proposal before. 35 PAGES! YES. PAGES.
Anyway, thus far this journey has been fun. I don’t know is it because I know that I’ve and am doing my best that it doesn’t seem to matter that much if I pass or fail. I’ve already learnt so much from the past 3 weeks which have been absolutely crazy but fulfilling as well. It’s the journey that matters, isn’t it?
I was at Nanyang to practise pitching an entire kitchen shelter. Heck, it was tiring but when I left it was extremely funny. I forgot to get the keys for their Guide’s Den and XE was contemplating whether she should just throw it to the second floor. We ended up playing Rapunzel- she threw a ball of twine and I threw the other end of the string for her and WQ to tie the keys to it. Hillarious moment indeed.
Pre-Camp Training at Camp Christine. I don’t know why but I think I was super high? I hope the campers don’t feel terrorised by me.. I don’t know why, but I always start talking in a language full of slangs and drawls and.. basically, things that you wouldn’t here me say in a normal conversation. And I only talk in that way when I’m teaching “juniors”. Why? Why? Why? My accent has been heavily chipped and degraded for the past 3 years.
Which reminds me, Mrs IW was just telling me on Thursday to watch what I say to practise for English Oral “O” Levels. Oh, boy..
Though June holidays are meant for full-strength studying, I don’t think I have done any. Heck, I hope this is worth it- and that I’ll be able to suffice enough memory, mental strength and eye power to full-on study from July onwards.
I swear I’ll be a total nerd.
You read that right.
