what i've been up to this week. nerding. nerding. extra nerding
something i miss. tauhui. and my friend: kristi in the tauhui bowl. that's why she's good friends with me. i hav my magic lamp or bottle while she has her tauhui bowl.
sometimes being noisy is not that bad i guess... xD
the butterfly and the flower. how cute. how cute.
keith's farewell lunch with the BS group which i havent had BS with for 72million years

comparing the lengths of our tongue.. ya i win.
trinnie,jeannie,corinnie hehe i look so angelic standing between the black dresses
toilets are the best inventions. u can rest like nikita (sitting down under hannah banana's arm), wash hands like hannahbanana, scratch your forehead like geri (haha ok la do your hair), or what everyone normally does.. TAKE PHOTOS! TAKE TAKE
or you can scratch your mouth like geri, kiss the air like nikita, or belt out your favourite opera in your most opera-est stance.
on the way back from the rivercruise CAPTAIN COOK

the busiest week of my whole entire month is over! WEE-OOOH!

imagine this..

monday: math test before school, drum lesson during school, cantate(choir) after school

tuesday: voice lesson before school, dance after school, band after dance

wed: the only free day! STUDYSTUDYSTUDY!! why? 2 tests the next day and oral presentation the day after!

thurs:big band before school, music test, physical science test, chorale(choir) after school

friday: dance before school, oral presentation, boarders' ball

oh my goodness. at the beginning i was so stressed. i thought i was going to die (no, not literally)

but i felt like just pushing everything aside and go: OK! I GIVE UP!

but then after much prayer, i knew i just had to do my best and let God do the rest!

1 Peter 5:7 "Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you."

Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."

although quite overused that sometimes i get numb to the message their trying to present to me, these 2 verses kept me going, knowing that MY GOD IS SO GREAT, SO STRONG AND SO MIGHTY, THERES NOTHING MY GOD CANNOT DO! FOR YOU! i was again reminded that life is so full of challenges. if God brings you to it, He will bring you through it! =D so yes, everyone, I SURVIVED! oleh oleh oleh!

its quite shocking honestly, studying so much is really no good for your social life. whenever i had free time, i would be studying for my science test or music test or rushing on my english oral, isolating myself in the dear little library, or my room, or one corner of the band rehearsal room. whenever someone enters me room, guess what i will be doing? surprise surprise! working or studying! and so i have no time to entertain them and they leave after a few brief seconds since i've got my nose stuck in my work.

boarders ball last night wasnt as fun as last year's. i think the best so far was the MLC international students' social. i knew and like most of the songs. last night... i think u can actually count the songs that i know with one hand. haha. but still, it wasnt too bad. i always enjoyed the getting ready bit the most anyway. i like helping people do their makeup whether they like it or not, doing their hair.. haah makes me feel like some professional i dunno what.

so yes. this wednesday im watching the school production: GREASE lightning!

the wednesday after, i've got the dreaded Senior Recital Night and many more things that follow.

6 weeks more to mocks. time really flies. its scary...

before i know it, TEE will be here!

3 more weeks to mid term break! oleh oleh oleh!

although its just a long weekend... I HAVENT BEEN OUT OF THE BOARDING HOUSE (overnight) for ages! ok just 2 weeks but still! and GUESS WHAT! i will be able to go to OCF then! YAY YAY YAY!

i will save the world!

Curtin open day


busy busy busy. so i guess i'll just wait till TEE's over (yea like nov 19!??!?!?)

i feel bad for being so grumpy these few days but i feel so stereotyped.
its so annoying. just because i hang out with a very hardworking person im seen as a lazy-easily-get-distracted bum. ok lor. anything lor. go on stereotyping. i just decided i wont care. why should i care. if i am a bum, i shall unbum myself. if i am not, then i'll continue not being a bum.
bleagh.
i'll live happily in the boarding house doing nothing but study and work and eat and sleep.
i've got my own priorities and just because someone thinks that something else should be my priority doesnt mean that it will automatically become my priority.
what if you study very hard for your future and care about nothing but studies and before you reach the future that you were studying very hard for, u suddenly die? and all u can be proud of is that u successfully studied very hard without distraction.
not because you managed to make sad people smile
not because you helped someone
not because you have been a great friend/a listening ear
not because you have created an impact in the world.
you had no time to do that because you were busy studying for your future and you dont want to be disappointed about that.
"live like there's no tomorrow" if i knew there was no tomorrow, i would find something more meaningful than studying. but that doesnt mean i dont think its important!!!
it is important of course! but its not the most important thing in the world!

ok enough of my rantings.

emo post. dont read.

im so sad

im so sad to go

im so sad to go back

im so sad to go back to school

im so sad to go back to school to do homework

its rather disgusting. ok very. like eew.

so back to my emo post...

like how i was telling everyone in school, i would enjoy my hols even more than last time cus i havent been back for ages. thats exactly how i feel right now. but i never thought about how bad it would be when it comes to leaving the place. (oh my gosh the mosquito buster thing is making me suffocate..) my favourite churchmates, ex-schoolmates, balletmates, family...

made my holiday so enjoyable and unknowingly made it more difficult for me to leave...

teoteo's hand holds the phone every second... haha. did i hear someone say NICKY!? =P

time flies when ur enjoying urself most...

ive been keeping myself rilli occupied these few days... meeting up with friends, reminiscing bout the good ol' days... haah. having fun..

but now im approaching the end of the rainbow. its not a pot of gold i see... it is clearly a big white shiny stinky toilet bowl thats unflushed. school,homework,assignments,exams... yuck.

i dont know why.. but ive been so pessimistic n bitter this year. so critical and unloving..maybe cus my walk with God hasnt been that consistent n strong anymore. im so much less motivated to do anything. walking around with shuen ytd, we were recalling how sec3 was our fav happiest yr. although we didnt go out to gaigai as much, i think the company i was in helped me with my walk of faith, like liming said, we exchanged little notes just to show our care n concern.. and occassionally a random "gundu"- i have no idea why.. but its all for the sake of laughter peace n joy...

i guess there were a few occassional petty quarrels... but it was one of my happiest years in sec school. SEC3! these people made school so bearable and exciting. they make me like to go to school. i miss the saying grace together at mealtimes, trying to spend as much time as a group as possible, being stupid, writing notes on post its, our lifelong dream of going to sentosa together...not yet fulfilled. ahah. doing the silliest stuff... SIGH. the good ol' days. brings not only a smile to my face, but giggles n laughs as well.

i was reading letters from friends that ive kept in a box... so many memories, how i wish i could relive those funny moments again and again. if only life was a tape recording, rewind it to undo your mistakes, fast forward to skip those silly challenges and awkward moments, replay to live your favourite periods of your lives. but isnt it because of this that make us appreciate life more? being unable to go back to the past, that's what makes memories so precious. replaying your life will only make u take it for granted, when the novelty wears off, you wont feel that those moments were that great after all.

sometimes it feels so difficult to keep moving forward and leaving behind what u love, although aware that there might be happier times ahead, it feels so much more comfortable to stick with what you know, what you've grown to live with, what you've grown to love and has become a part of your life. y move on when u can just stay like that forever.. press that pause button... maybe after a while life will become stagnant i guess. i dont really know y. but most of the time its for the better... God didnt plan you life for nothing! :) the letters and cards i read kept reminding me about God's divine plan for me in Perth. i don't really know it yet, but i hope i've been helpful in contributing to that plan... although we've all moved on, walking on different paths, think of them as parallel roads. we're still side by side =D sounds rather corny but our friendship will withstand all the "wind blow rain beat"-(go figure). although we dont get to meet as often, im always thinking of you guys. you left me with a lovely memory in secondary school... trying to choreograph 3 dances in one day, for the good times to keep it simple. and the love. =))

always remember i'll stand by you, walking on that road parallel to yours. when u are weary, i'll whip out my cowboy lasso from my pocket and drag you along the road that's parallel to mine until your butts are sore and u decide to start walking again. quoted from liming: BEST BUTTs forever. my beloved stupid silly kickass clovertingtongs. the fairy the pixie the guardian of sun moon and stars the angel. hahahaha lets hit the play button with much enthusiasm, dance to life's music, as we draw nearer and nearer to God's marvellous plans for us. until we meet again to do the dance. the chicken dance. next tuesday? i'll try ok!

lallala...
im so free..haha
IM MEANT TO BE DOING HOMEWORK BUT I CANT FIND THE MOTIVATION!!!
=/=/=/=/
ive been thinking a lot lately (lately meaning the past few minutes and seconds)
and it suddenly occurred to me that i've been living such a "ME" life.
most of the things i do are out of selfish purposes and it is so disappointing..
before i make any decisions, i go "do i like it?" "is it good for me?"
so selfish! i need to think more. THINK THINK SHARE SHARE CARECARE
going for lunch now, toodles.

i am always ready for a photo! hahahhahor not.....
cute jooniors!!
international student social..
the closest we get to asian food.... YUMMY YUMMY TOM YUM!!

k bye

to SF: well done guys! every single one of u! from the actors/actresses/dancers to the ushers to the publicity people to the sound and lighting and everyone involved in one way or another, GOOD JOB =D u were awesome! especially the ferrero rocher door gifts... OH THAT'S ME! hahaha. alright just kidding. but seriously it was tough getting the rochers to stay on the straws. qinyi minhui shimin yanfang n i were dying n trying to stick them on but they just insist on rolling out! grr.
my main point in this post: IM SO PROUD OF QINQIN! i admire her for her courage to share her testimony in front of such a big crowd, knowing that everything she said rili came from the bottom of her heart. SHE'S MY INSPIRATION and ROLE MODEL =D

honey, im home!

HAHAHA YAY!

finally! so many exciting things to do!

after not blogging for so long, i dont feel like blogging anymore.
