My 260th post. I feel a need to update today of all days even though i have a really tight schedule. Technically i'm not even supposed to be here, online of all places in the house. An excuse to come online was found from the results of the REACH survey that i have to update online. That's done now so i shall just take some time off and rant here.

Today was a really thought provoking day again. Stressed up day as well as we now know the amount of expectations that we have to live up to. It is not easy thinking about the number of people that u are letting down by behaving in a certain manner that is deemed unsettling or upsetting. It feels even worse to know that by acting in that manner, you are subconciously hurting the people that are so concerned about you by making them worried and helpless as to what to do. I'm refering to my beloved teachers who have been asking countless "What happened?" and "Is everything alright?". GP period made us realise that we are totally acting besides our usual self. The class is said to be dead with no positive energy emmiting from us. Well ms yong is hardly the first teacher to tell us that. A heart to heart paper chat( since we seem to be unable to articulate anything) allowed her to kind of have a glimpse of the difficulties that we are facing.

It is really true that we are stressed up. I mean, since when have you seen joyce(!!!!) running at her own free will BEFORE training. Now the catch is this... During trainings we usually have hell sprints that would make ur thighs go OUCH and "i think my thigh is gonna remain in this cramped up condition FOREVER!"(!!!!!!!!!!!!) It is really in a bid to relief stress. We all have our different concerns but i feel as though this yr started out bad.. There is no positive feeling about this year. As discussed (in the toilet, of all places..) that we are actually having really short-sightedness. Short-term goals like pathetic ones-surviving the week and can't wait for fri or the weekend. We can't even bring ourselves to look beyond that in case we get a serious case of concussion by everything flying head-on and collisions happening. We might go into a coma and never recover! That is the kind of problem we are facing. Are we running away from things?

Ms yong showed us a video.. It was about how a person's positive attitude towards things and the outcome. This guy, morris goodman, through shear determination and perseverance, willed himself to stand back up on his two feet after suffering what was believed to be a fatal injury. The recovery was so amazing that doctors dubbed him the "miracle man". His positivity is so amazing! He led us to believe in our minds and our capability to make things happen. It really follows the cliche quote that "When there's a will, there's a way" but this time, it is for real. There was a moral msg behind all these and i thought it was really an apt time to show us that video....

Learnt much lessons today. =)

Alright!! Chem test is over. 1 down 2 more to go. After this week i will treat myself to something for having survived it. Yes i will. =)

=) I made someone's day a little better by juz offering my umbrella in the rain. I'm so proud of myself u noe cause i was kinda feeling moody about the rain and stuff but yet i managed to go forward and share the unbrella with a total stranger. Aren't i being nice? lol. She kinda made my day too when she expressed her thanks and surprise. Apparently that was the first time any stranger has offered to share their umbrella with her. Haha. Guess wad i did? i told her to pass the good deed on.

It has been a long time since i really blogged about any particular issue. Maybe i should talk about something now. How about animal rights and environmental issues? These are the various topics that i am currently examining in gp lessons.

What do we know about the environment REALLY. Obviously we do know the fundamentals because of the media and the concerns that the geographers are raising about global warming. The question really is then that what are we actually doing to salvage this problem. Today i watched the show "An inconvenient truth" and some of the things that Al Gore said struck a cord in me. Is it really true as the statistics show that the earth's temperature is actually rising so much, so rapidly? Is it true that the kind of natural disasters that we are currently experiencing would worsen and cause much much more damage because of the rise in temperature? Our future generation might not be able to experience the kind of nature that we have now. How reliable is this stand??

It provokes thinking in me. The earth is so vulnerable and what are we doing as inhabitants of this planet to protect it and ensure that drastic changes are not happening such that extinction is a tangible problem and predicted to be far earlier than it is supposed to be? I seriously cannot imagine living without natural resources or living in a concrete jungle for that matter. Some things to ponder about....

I can't believe it!! They say that it takes years to know a person and even so it might not be fully understanding the person. It just amazes me that a simple test that involves some ink blots can actually read my personality so well! I was stunned as i read it. utterly stunned. I think i lost the link but it is on "Tickle" webbie. Do check it out. =) It is rather eerie!

-loves-

Study time tml and the day after. Test after test after test. And the reason is... "Welcome to J2 life". It just plain sucky. 3 H2 tests in one week. I'm so dead.... And the only "good" news that i heard was that this cycle is just going to continue throughout the year. Goodness. Can u hear the scream of estasy coming from me??? ROAR!

To: Ying Xieng!! Be strong alright. i'm sure this would be over before u know it!! =)

And i'm gone. Bye!

Taking a break from all the researching that needs to be done for that geography project. It seems like never-ending and it is so totally eating into the time for my beauty slp. It is Wednesday already!! A whole new day...

My parents are really weird. Today i came home earlier than them so i decided to take a nap as i was really exhausted. (Oh my goodness... =) I suddenly can't stop smiling...*Shh*) =) Okie so anyway i was all along fast asleep in my room. My parents came home and all then it started to rain.
Dad: "Is joyce home yet? It is raining so heavily and i don't think she has trg today."
Mom: "Yeah. Wonder why is she so late today. Why don't you give her a call?"
Me: "!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Goodness me! They din even noe that i was in the house???? It gives me the creep. Ignorant peeps. haha. They still did not know till i gave a shout from the comforts of my bed to alert them of my presence. Aiyo... Were they shocked! Should have juz seen their faces. >.<

Productive day today. i did much of the work to be done by thurs. Have yet to start any studying though. I think that is a great source for panic. Next tues there's org chem test. Then wed we have to do the presentation. Oh man... And the list goes on. There is even a math test coming up. Have u ever seen dead meat or zombies before? Try seeing how i look after a long day...

Just to illustrate how bad it is today... After the first lesson which was geog lect, we had chem tut. We took a total of 10 mins to stroll up to the 4th floor. It was practically strolling as though we are in the park kinda thing. By the time we reached the classroom, our teacher was threatening extra lessons already. That bad huh... And that was only the 2nd period. It could only get worse along the course of the day. Juz imagine...

Why are training days overwhelming me? Mon(with pe), wed, thurs(with pe) and even sat!! I need to get more clothes man... The laundry would never dry in time for me to repeatedly wear the same tees over and over again for long! Not to mention that my legs are getting so sore and tight and yucky. Haiz now my mom says it is all my fault choosing a sports cca. Well i can only say.. "It was my choice and it still is." There!!

Bought a nice and cute little bear as company for my phone. I love it!! It is a whitish bear with the words "hug me" sewn on it. =) And of course you won want to know the name that tab so conveniently named it. I won't use that name for very obvious reasons... at least to us.

Okie i havta go.
Bye all!
lalalalalala~ *happie start to a day!! =)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NASIRAH!!

Happy 18th birthday!! This month seems to be filled with birthdays! That day was pam's then wanying's then now my pw leader-nas! =) Mine is still far... Be patient my girl!! Time would fly so fast u would be wishing it is for another 10 years. Haha! On second thoughts, maybe not... >.<

Alone at home once again. I should be in town!! Shopping! But i'm stuck home with a filled agenda and i'm guilty in confessing that i have yet to touch much of it. I need to get out of this enclosure!! Ooh! And my mp3 is working once again!! I am so so excited and happie.

U noe wad? i think that my mood swings or part of it at least is caused by the lack of music due to my lousy mp3 going bonkers on me. Haha... Interesting how much music can influence ur life. That's why i totally enjoy the piano sessions that i have wif a variety of people. The melodious sound of the grand piano is as good as a spa session. =) So far wei, sebas and loraine has been entertaining that need. haha. It sounds wrong... Somehow during every jamming session the badminton ppl are having training. Can't help it. The days that we are free are non-squash days and that concides with their training days.

The bottom para is in response to a unique request...
"Goldfishy. Why muz you look so lovely in your gold coloured scales? Is there anything beneath that prettiness that is worth a second look at you? You swim unconcerned and easily in the water that is but ur space. Do you like interaction? Or are you an isolated case that only bother about yourself. I still do not understand the strong obsession that ppl have of you. Is it because you do not appeal to me despite looking so attractive? Are you worth jumping into the deep end of the pool for? Many muses that i have, of a little fish that so captured the hearts of many..."

-Nirvana. Always in it with you. Smile... Now if only you would let me love you. =) -

Whew! Finally it is friday. I have been waiting for this day for the whole of this week. U have no idea how tired out i am save for a few ppl who saw me in a state of complete exhaustion such that they thought i was sick! That was ytd. Long day plus training plus running. Wad other worse combi can u think of when u have not been slping well? Sigh of relief... Whew! Bad start to the day ytd yet i was smiling as i went to slp. All thanks to my little cheer-me-upper. LOL! Never fails to bring a smile to my face. =)

Ended wif a smile of course i woke up feeling good too! =) Today is a great day!! Few reasons...
1. Short day
2. Enjoyable lessons
3. Jamming session which means music!
4. crapped wif classmates
5. Sitting around and watching
6. Blood Diamond movie!! It juz plain rox!
7. Something =)

I am now so into the movie. So nice and touching that i can't help but shed tears at some parts of it. All in all i can't help but feel sadness and compassion for Africa-the rebel torn country and the victims which are the slaves and labourers. I shan't say more in case i spoil the plot. But it really is a WONDERFUL movie to watch. Highly recommended.
Ooh.. and though i see how violent the trade is, i can't help but be an "all american girl" and wish for a diamond ring. =) And as said, get that 100 carat pink diamond. Ooh! >.<

Infatuation is such a lousy word. It brings so much uncertainty in it that it might as well not exist. It is all about keeping the hope alive... plain painful sometimes... But why is there juz such a thing???!! Hahaz.. Can't understand how things work sometimes.

Update!! This is gonna be a real short post because i'm falling asleep. Today is such a hmm... weird day. Enjoyed most of it other than the almost falling asleep for the most part of lectures. Xp Ooh! And we watched 2 different movies cum documentries today during geog lect and gp. Have lots of tutorials to do by thurs. =( That's such a sad thought.

Had training ytd. Learnt some stuffs that should otherwise be common sense.
1. Not to exercise on a empty and hungry stomach. U would only get dizzy after court sprints and almost blackout. At least that was wad happened to me.
2. Do proper stretching and don't over stretch. I did exactly that and i think i had minor injuries all over my body frm my shoulder muscles to my calf muscles. It hurts!!! I limped.
3. Don't play with an opponent that u have no interest in playing if not u would disappoint both people. I feel so bad...
4. feel like puking or passing out? Drink soya bean milk and laugh. LOL! Wad i mean is laugh so u take in more oxygen. *warning: Try at ur own risk- ur sanity is at stake...*

There's recrea training tml.. And i have to go down. For wad reason i do not know. Hope it does not drain me mentally...

This weekend is so disappointing! I did not accomplished much at all basically juz spent the whole time holed up in bed with the occasional trip to tm and well, to makan. To make me look less slack, okie i did read some stuffs but it amounts to this teeny weeny bit. Might as well not mention it at all! Lol!

Hmm.. My dad left for france earlier today and i'm already missing him. Now no one to bicker over who would use the bathroom first in the morning and there's no one to rush me to sch le. Wonder if it is a good thing or bad. But i'm so jealous!! I also wanna go to france. Hahaz.. Hope he enjoys himself there and buys me some goodies from there. Now.. wad is france famous for?? I can send him an email compiling my "wants"! That's a thought! xp

Ytd went shopping. And i so fell in love with this mango top and jeans! Goodness but they are so expensive!! Haiz i'm becoming such a bimbo and i cannot let this continue. Been spending much in this month on clothes. It would be a miracle that my mom has yet to start complaining about my money usage! But i'm eyeing the clothing! I like the top. New collection. Hmm.. Nice! Heez.

Randomness. I love myself! =)

I donno why am i feeling this way today. For no reason i started having really bad mood swings like helpless. I juz don't know how to describe it. =(

Still feeling not too great now. Especially since i wasted like 1 hr plus online trying to submit the initiate cip form and in the end succeeding in only the rejection of it. My com sux la. There is nothing wrong with the title and all but it is so damn irritating. Wad an end to a day. Tell me why... Tell my why am i feeling so lousy.

Today is a very very special day! It is none other than my CLASS birthday! 5th of Jan written as 5.01=S501!!! =) We celebrated it in sch right after lessons in the canteen. A fun filled affair with a cake and all the hardworking teachers around!! The whole class (except jasmine) was present. Sang the birthday song, cut the cake and gave out the presents that mr ng prepared for us. Ooh!! I probably should elaborate more about this!...

Mr Ng is such a wonderful wonderful teacher!! He surprised us with a 'birthday present' today. Looking at the presents that he so thoughtfully bought for us i can't help but love him for what he had done for us. He actually bought handphone pouches for EACH and EVERY one of us. Peeling off the pricetag from every single one and writing a personalised note for each of us, tying it to the gift with ribbon. Aww.. That is not all! He even bought a box for the pouches to wrap it up. I love him so so much for his dedication to our class and the amount of effort that he has so kindly put in. It was just a spur of the moment event by us playful people but he took care to do something special for us. Seeing that we only told him about the 'birthday' the previous day, i am really touched. I guess and i am sure that the rest of 06S501 can't help but agree with me.=)

-skip-

Sch has already started for 3 days and i have to admit that i am dead tired. Maybe it is due to the fact that i have been squashing for the last 2 days. xp My stamina and fitness is juz plain lousy as of now so it is time to start training again!!! I grew in height but my weight also increased during the hols. Time to shed the extra weight and become super fit. Hahaz! And did i really grow? I doubt it but the measuring rule seems to beg to differ. =) Oh well most good looking guys are shorter now so no point growing so tall le. xp

-hop-

u brighten up my otherwise boring days. =) Love looking out for u. Hahaz... Does it mean anything? I donno... 'conversations' are great too!! *Smiles*
