anyway, CAPES!!!!

8:58 pm
i believe that having too much free time will just make me complacent, and i end up doing nothing. yup, it makes me feel that there's nothing i can't keep off until tomorrow, and there's always time tomorrow to do whatever i have to do.
& i think facebook scrabble is getting me addicted. :( it's not good... i love scrabble. i wish people played the game more.
anyway, i went to the AYG training today... at about 9am. mom and dad drove me there, and they started half an hour late, because nobody came... only 7 out of the many people were present... and the thing ended after 15 min... maybe less. came home by bus. almost rained... the weather was awesome.
i like the period before the rain starts falling. you know, when the grey clouds roll in, covering most of the sky. everything seems to be less bright and cheery like before, and the wind rushes past your face, getting your hair all in a mess but you don't really care. you can even smell the hint of rain, the coldness creeping under your skin. the leaves in the trees rustle, a sound that thrills. some of it falls to the ground, and gets blown away immediately by the wind. oh i love it before it rains.
anyway, i did nothing productive today. :( except to tell the AYG in charge of my schedule problems. :/
& dad bought durian home! woo! i didn't eat a lot. now i need the toilet.
okay, so here are some videos!
watch in HD. it's AMAZING. & I think this song is pretty awesome.
all of it's in HD so watch it in HD! I love the Teardrops version here. & our song. :} i thought You Belong With Me was kind of off-key a little bit, but the rest were good! ;) She really deserves all this, seeing as how she works so hard to give to all these people.
if i could, i'd be like her! :)
yay, so enough on my taylor swift rant.
peace out guys!

i think it's time i posted. it's been a while. i keep procrastinating, saying i'll do this later, i'll do this later... but it never happens. I think i'm just afraid of the sheer amount of words and emotions that i have to put into this post. :(
see, i got distracted again. i'm useless. -_-,
and again.
okay, so i shall recap my week thus far.
WEDNESDAY
i went to school early to discuss tvprod with my class, and i was the earliest... so i went to buy a cd for photography. wasn't very productive... but we watched previous works by other students and so as to give us inspiration... it was really cold and i was wearing fbts for netball later. i have decided i am too lazy to change. & media management, i got back the test. i wouldn't say i did a good job, if only i'd studied harder? i really should buck up this sem. my gpa average is already bordering on a 3... don't want it to slip under, don't we? accccounting is definitely interesting but the numbers all at once is overwhelming!!
netball was pretty much okay. i only played one game. next time i'll try to play more! >:( but i saw a primary school friend.
-__-|| how coincidental is it that i have 2 primary school friends in netball, and they don't recognize me?
THURSDAY
newswriting was... pretty much okay. i got some valuable feedback for my FA1 but being me, i was all over the place. i don't know how to ask questions, don't know what to ask... but i HAVE to ask. forcing myself to ask questions might give me a better analytical mind perhaps... i don't know. i just feel i'm not using my brain enough. it hasn't reached it's full potential. ever since the O levels i've been so... shmtick about everything.
atrium lunch of chips... which were damn oily. never eating it again unless i really need something. :/ managed to get some ideas out for advertising. advertising was pretty laid-back, as usual. it's all a scam though! once everything starts going... ha, you'll see... i'll be complaining about it soon enough. came back home and took some shots along the way for photography.
had an awesome dinner, too many things my mom cooked because it was dumpling festival haha. <3>
FRIDAY
dad sent me to school and we talked about getting a dslr! i still don't know what to get and he was saying Olympus / Nikon... but i think i like Canon better. i'll have to do more research then! anyway, i reached school round 710am... very very very early. saw my french teacher from last semester, who seemed to have just come back from a run. o_o my goodness i think i'm not going to get an A for photog after all. what a dumb choice! but i did learn something.... :) we ended early too!
met my mom at vivo to have lunch! we were hesitating between subway (but it was crowded) then we went to ajisen, but then left... so ended up at some chinese-y cafe... the food was okay. the carrot cake was pretty good actually. :} then we walked around bought a prez for little boy, and then bought some groceries and came home.
now i'm wondering if i should go to sports council tomorrow cos i'm so so so so so tired. i fell asleep round 5pm just now. :( it's all creeping up to me now! >:(
okay i have to crash.
bye.

David seems so sad when he sings this song. Especially during American Idol.
It's because of his brother who recently died. Poor thing. :(
and if you can watch the AI version & the music video version!
okay i shall stop here. was going to put more. but whatever!
7:39 pm
monday was a pretty long day for me. i woke up round 7 plus after the alarm sounded at 630. so much for waking up early huh? anyway, had a lovely breakfast my mom made me! school by bus and waited at cheers for a bit, Eugene & Ky, and we left for NEWSWG. seriously, we were talking about how to interview someone. pretty late news since we already done it :( but nonetheless!
TVPROD & we had to sit according to production groups because of a few cases of forgery. sometimes people can be pretty inconsiderate, see what we all had to sacrifice because of this? :/ oh well, guess it is easier for teachers. TVPROD, and some files were lost too... >:(
3 hour break! We were supposed to go in our group to eat! But somehow miscommunication occurred? They ended up eating with another group while Angella Ky & I sat elsewhere to eat. The prata at Al-Ameen is not like what I usually have! :o It's cooked on the spot I think!!! Yay for that! & they were so nice, giving us sugar and curry when we asked and also one scoop of free ice-cream!!! & we got the student cards, so yes!!! Not a bad second visit I believe! Awwwwesome!!! Their teh ice is good too! Woo! & It was only $2 plus! Ky's briyani was huge, and later into the meal they gave her another small plate of mutton, which they forgot. I mean, they could have just forgotten about it altogether, but they remembered and rectified the mistake!!! ;} Kudos to that!
Walked back (at Angella's insistence) to school and went to library! Alan met up with us and we played chinese chess on Viwawa. OMG DAMN FAIL!!!! Ky & I got beaten! But we almost won right? right? :}
MM was okay, but NUMBERS!!! Who'd have thought?!
Then I went to 56 to do my french homework. eyer, I didn't want to do it last minute but I couldn't bring myself to do it either. And AYG called me so I told them about Ky's prob but it still didn't get solved. :/ I accepted the position though. Sales assistant. Hopefully I can cope? ;/
French was nothing but a blur! & the teacher so kind, let us have our test after the break! :}
I ate half a bag of chips for dinner. wth.
Today I came pretty much on time with Ky! woooo, but a lot of people at cheers... I don't like that. Feels like they are all looking at you when you pass. :o
Advertising was fun! There are some videos I should post up... let's see if I can find it.
Anyway, I thought the pop quiz for MRM was something like Socpsych, fill in the blanks kinda thing... but it was an online quiz, multiple choice! >:o At least I got all right, I think, 'cept the bonus question.
Then we worked on questionnaire design. Questions are so hard to come up with! >:(
I still have to take PHOTOS. :( howhowhowhow.
okay, i'm gonna go see what i can do about life.
xx
Sunday, May 24, 2009 9:54 pm
i'm awfully tired! :(
saturday i woke up round 9 plus from a call from aunt asking us whether we wanted to catch a movie! Night At The Museum 2 was pretty funny, haha; I think the best part was the cherubs / Cupids as you call them. 3 of them = jonas brothers. Their voices were quite distinct when they sang, but I kind of doubted it was them until I heard them sing Lovebug. Speaking of Lovebug, I found some easy chords to play the song with, all on my own, so awesome!!! :}
yeah, anyway, had lunch at AsianKitchen, which was okay I guess. Nothing special. Bought 2 more fbt shorts, so now i have 3! but my sis also bought one more... when my mom already got one the other day... and it was her size... so now she probably has 4 or 5 pairs... and coupled with all her other shorts she already has... WHY DOES SHE NEED SO MANY ANYWAY? Is it cos' she sees me buying something and needs to buy something as well!? argh, it's a waste of money when she already has like 3 pairs. she only has one butt for goodness sake. okay, i realise i'm being a little hypocritical here... so i'll stop.
got home, played some guitar i think, tried practising no boundaries by kris allen & also lovebug by jonas brothers and a bunch of other simple songs i already knew. didn't do much at night, but i did watch the first 2 hours of elizabethtown. Orlando bloom!!! <3>
Today I woke up round 9, and went to the market with my mom! Got some groceries, headed back... dilly-dallied... and around 215pm i went out to meet Ky. We were supposed to go to Orchard for the Arts on the Move event (one of it) but we were late already, so decided to meet at Harbourfront instead. Chilled at Macs until the event started at 4pm, and it was one of the most... peculiar things I've seen. I mean, aliens walking around... you don't get to see it everyday! They did scare loads of children though, because their face wasn't very nice-looking... but it was fun to see them walking around doing weird things. okay, didn't really get many good interviews done, so i guess it was a wasted trip :( now we'll have to choose something else... great. :/
photog assignment!!! >:(
i need people!
okay i should go.
school tomoz.

Friday, May 22, 2009 4:07 pm
well, first things first.
TGIF!!! *Thank god it's Friday!
I am so glad for this week to be over, and now that I finally have some time and space to breathe, I think I can look back on the week and say that it sucked. Why, you ask? I guess for me it was really shitty because of some things that happened.
Let's go to Wednesday. TVPROD, and I was the first person hosting. Naturally, I kind of clammed up, thus my words were more or less very clumsy and I ate into a lot of them. This led to a comment about my English. 0_0 & I now can confirm that my voice sounds different on and off air. It's just so weird to hear your voice on air... but that it doesn't sound like what you think your voice sounds like you know? Well, that was EMBARRASSMENT number 1. I should make it into a list like how sometimes HIMYM makes like these lists to illustrate their story.
Anyway, Media Management, we had to role-play. Luckily it was groups against groups so it wasn't so awkward, but I didn't say as much as I wanted to... so there goes my participation marks. It's not that I'm not contributing you know, it's just that, I can't express what I want to say quickly or fluently or whatever-ish. I'm so ineloquent!!! ergh!!! So that was EMBARRASSMENT number 2. Not exactly an embarrassing situation to be in... but I thought it was quite sad.
Ended up not going for netball this week because I got stuck getting my poll survey done. I was getting a little desperate! Luckily god decided to lend a little help and I managed to get it done by 730 or so? Left for Clementi Interchange to eat Subway with Ky! She was really nice, staying back and walking around school to lend her support! Subway was well awesome... I think it's been the first time I've eaten Subway this year, not counting the Subway breakkie with mom.
Then I got home to watch American Idol while doing work. I can't remember what I was doing... probably newswriting... YEAH, newswriting. American Idol was awesome! I have to say, Adam sang Mad World quite nicely! & Ain't No Sunshine by Kris was obviously awesome! I was hoping he'd sing that song!!!! :} & I feel that Kris is less dramatic, but more intimate. Adam is the theatrical one, but he also manages to catch attention. Still, I'd rather forgo the theatrics in favour for a more intimate, up close and personal gig so KRIS is my choice! Not to say that I don't like Adam.
Thursday I went to school early to do Newswriting, & I got some tips on my angle. The inverted pyramid test was assisted by Ms Koh, pretty funny! which brings me to the next sad point of my day: SPOILERS. American Idol spoilers everywhere! How can they be so inconsiderate as to blurt out who the winner was?! I mean, I kind of knew it was going to be Kris (X) ) but still!!! The element of surprise is gone!!! & so yeah... lunch was horrible!!!
I went to try out the new place at the Atrium, Zesty tomato? Ended up buying a hotdog and went back to sit but when I let my hotdog onto the table, it jumped off and landed on the floor face first. I was like shocked initially, then I thought about the 2 dollars I lost... >:( but I still ate the hotdog la... I will not and cannot let food & money go to waste. Sorry but it's true. So now I can officially check off "Ate a hotdog that once fell to the ground". Moreover, I got chili on my pants, and also on the ground... so that was a little sad. EMBARRASSING moment number 3? Definitely.
I went home after school, and the red plastic bag that I had been carrying stained my pants (not that bad... but YOU KNOW?!) so I had to spend some time using the stain remover and spray it on certain parts... Then I went down to the neighbourhood to take some photos for my assignment... I saw this cat I wanted to take, but I was scared that it'd lunge at me so I hesitated. It tried to lunge at me! :( Or at least I think it did. :/
Other than that, it rained when I got back home, so lucky I managed to get my stuff done before then. & I was all psyched up for the encore finale ( COULDN'T WATCH LIVE COS I WAS IN BLOODY SCHOOL) & the performances were quite cool or lame or whatnot... but that's American Idol for you. So whilst watching Idol I was doing Newswriting. tsk. But I was really happy Kris won! ;} KRISKRISKRIS. :}
Today, I came to school superrrrrrrrrr early, like an hour earlier than I was supposed to, because my dad fetched me. I was moody and tired but I got over it soon enough. Photog was.. ugh. Interesting to see other people's perspectives on life and whatnot, but does it really need 4 hours?! I'm so glad next week's the last week. But we have 2 assignments this week!!!!!
Met Ky & Angella for lunch at Makan Place but was too crowded so switched to canteen 1. I realised I forgot my wallet, which I left in the red plastic bag from yesterday. >:( & my bag was full of cables and stupid stuff... GRR!!!! & we did newswriting until Ky had to leave for her class... & then Angella & I stuck around... I went to the library to print out the stuff, found out everyone was printing in color. Tried to print as well but there were too many people rushing and I didn't have enough money and the printer at canteen 1 was freaking spoilt... I was really panicky then. >:( Ended up not printing in color... & also had to hand up for them all.... not that i minded or anything. Just that it was so hot. :( & well, sweating isn't for me. I swear I shall try not to print anything in school EVER again. :( Then bummed around canteen 1 again alone thinking I could get some blogging done... but the table I sat at was one which housed a bee's nest. That was what I found when I pushed my charger into the pinhole and felt it got stuck and then I found something sticky which I thought was chewing gum in the pinholes... but then this bee was so annoying and then I finally got it and I immediately left! >:(
Okay, so the folding star one was a total scam. They never mentioned we were supposed to SELL the stars... >:(
But at least I learnt how to fold stars from straws.
Then mom & dad came to fetch me & sis to have dinner with aunt cos it was her birthday. My english is getting from bad to worse so please do understand. I'm pretty tired. I loved dinner, although it was quite hard a place to find... DEFU LANE. so ULU la!!! Anyway, there was SWEET & SOUR PORK, which is like my favouritefavourite chinese dish everrrrrrr!!! haha, well, it's ranked pretty high up there!!! :} Good sweet & sour pork is really hard to find okay!!! >:( Then there was this awesome tofu, awesome veg, awesome chicken, awesome wasabi prawn which I didn't dare to eat cos it looked GREEN... & THE AMAZING FANTASTICAL MAGICAL spare ribs & chili crab. OMGGGGGG...totally to die for!!! I loved the chili crab so awesomeeeeeeeeee!!!! Or maybe it's because I haven't eaten chili crab for a long long long time. But the spare ribs was omnomnom.!! like steak! :o tender, juicy, succulent!!! :D:D:D
If i could, I would ask for chili crab without crab. :} i just love the gravy! :D My cousin whacked up most of the crab (he lovessssss it & prawns) seriously!!! only 12 and haha, eating so much! Won't have to worry about leftovers with him around.
Yup, so then back home... I saw the flyer and the cbd at night!! & we went through the 2km long tunnel or whatever, soooooooooooo cool!!!!! ;D
Anyway, I think I shall stop here. All in all a very taxing week but the dinner and kris allen winning AI made up for it!!! WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
peaceout

you could see that glimmer of hope that flashed in her eyes as he came into view. he was what she described as "incredible". not that he knew much about who she was or what she did, she felt perfectly content just gazing from a distance. "it doesn't matter if he knows me or not, as long as i can see that smile on his face every single day... i'm okay." that hint of a smile she had on her face was termed as "THE smile". "i feel happy whenever he's near, it's clichéd but true, and my mind just gets all mushed up, i don't know how he does it."
I seem to have a lot of time on my hands! This isn't a good sign. See, even if I have time to rest, I still feel uneasy, like there are ants in my pants. :(
I still have Newswg story to write. I know I should be doing it but I haven't finished polling 20 people! God, I would finish it, but it's difficultttttt for me to approach strangers and ask them for a favour... but I seem to have improved somewhat... maybe my skin grew thicker. ;/
k, i shall see what i can do with Newswg.

sometimes words are like roses. they look all lovely and elegant on the surface, but if you look carefully, you'll see small, sharp thorns. those thorns hurt like crazy when you touch them. the words that are now the thorns latch onto you, causing you spasms of pain in small sharp bursts, you never can tell when it's going to prick you again because life is unpredictable. but words can hurt, one may not know it, but sometimes words can hurt.
anyway, i think i didn't do the above paragraph justice. i've been having that thought in my mind all day, it kind of got all mouldy and it's not fascinating or captivating anymore.
but on to yesterday.
i walked to Tanjong Pagar MRT station (proud beam) and met Ky, waited for Angella to reach... which reminded me that I'll have to get Teenage soon, DAVID ARCHULETA!!!! :} & so once we all got together, we wanted to buy dinner, but the chartered bus arrived (which is really convenient by the way!) so we got on it... dinner-less. Bus ride there was okay, quite fast. I got to touch a DSLR again! X] It's so fun, even though I don't know the functions of it... just clickety click click! So Marina Barrage (MB) was... HUGE. At first we were clueless as to where to begin... then we decided to head up to the open space... & Angella started asking, & Ky started asking, and i was just standing there, being my usual courageless self. I thought I could do it... but seeing so many people and the thought of being rejected just got me frozen I think. That and coupled by the 17 years of being so sheltered and never speaking up much... well you know... But the sky got darker and I couldn't procrastinate any longer... managed to get an awesome interview with a teacher! :D Teachers are really helpful sometimes. :}
Saw Ms koh there as well with her son? We asked for advice. :}
Then the performance. Hélios II was awesome, like one-of-a-kind!!!! I was awed at the huge praying mantis like insect thing. :o & I got up close. I got up close, period. It was right above me & Ky one time, and we were just clicking away with the camera haha, so coooooolxz. The men on stilts were pretty hot, even with makeup on. I CAN TELL!!! :} & it's not just because they're french hahaha. :} So yeah, the performance lasted quite a while, didn't really get the point, but it was fascinating. Few mistakes, but didn't dampen the spirit. YES DAMPEN is the word. awesome. but it's no mean feat to skip whilst wearing stilts seriously. even if the stilts are not wooden ones, but those with springs at the bottom. :o AWESOME!!! Totally worth it. I think Ky & I were contemplating going again today... but ah well haha.
So after the performance, it was like wooooooooooosh, everyone started moving off... probably didn't want to get caught in the jam for the shuttle bus! lol, there were plenty... plenty-many shuttle buses to go around though. We stayed back to interview people, and I again... was overwhelmed with the fear... Yup, THE Fear. 8-) But it was alright really, I managed to get some good interviews.
Shuttled back to International Plaza & went to Macs for late dinner... :/ it was 1040pm! Didn't feel hungry though... wonder why. Must be the panic gnawing at my insides. & do you know that the menu thingy at Macs, the ones on the top where you look at before you order at the counter? Well, they FLIP. :o like you know those playground tic-tac-toe things? they flip like that. :o omgggggg, it was so modernised it caught my eye. :p & the chocolate fudge is AWESOME at mccafe, they use the same choco fudge as the sundae. Lyons brand. woooo.
Yeah, and after that my dad called to fetch me home yay! <3
Did you know I hate dashing across roads for fear of getting knocked down by a car due to my lack of judgement even if I have looked left and right like many times? :}
So today was stupid... I cannot believe that a Sunday can pass so fast. Seriously, one moment it was 4.45, the next it was 5.30. One moment it was 10.30, the next it was 12.30. :o Like PLEASE DON'T TAKE MY SUNDAY AWAY?!
I still have Newswg poll tomorrow, smokerzcornerz. GAH!!!! Nevertheless; I shall forge on!
For now, MM!!! I do not like picking up the slack for others, period.
BYE.
Saturday, May 16, 2009 3:13 pm
man, i'm dreading heading out to the arts fest to cover Hélios II , something about the creation of a sun god? I don't want to sound all... ignorant and whatnot, but I don't understand it. Maybe I should be there to witness it before I say anything. :/ Okay...
Things to Do:
-Photography: 25 photos on Nature & Manmade Landscapes... on disc
-MRM: tighten up loose ends, ask lecturer for advice? literature review
-MM: do my part of the job and help the rest. CBA
-TVPROD: script & pictures
-NEWSWG: dreadedddddd poll interview & story, as well as the arts fest coverage FA1.
shall end off here, and see if i can waste my time away doing something unsensible.
tonight!
Friday, May 15, 2009 6:16 pm
okay, so i will update after what seems like three hundred gazillion years. don't ask me why three hundred gazillion. i just like that number! which reminds me that i have been saying that i like a certain number a few times this week! :}
i'll get back to this soon. seem to be procrastinating everytime. :[
i had a dream like, last night, about kris allen. :} yes, and i can honestly tell you that he was performing a john mayer song, with his acoustic guitar. srsly, it was that in-depth, my dream. i even know the song title! >:D but i have to listen to all JM's songs before i can recall it. hold on.... okay, i can't remember which song it was. but honestly, it was a john mayer song, as i recalled. :}
anyhow, adam lambert was nowhere to be seen on the idol stage in my dream haha! wooo!
http://fudgeriver.livejournal.com/7025.html
if you go to the above site, i just want to say that this person, has a REALLY cool review of the top 3 american idol performance. i like! :}
watch in HD. :}
anyway, i was watching a couple of mcfly interviews & performances, and this really struck me. i mean, aren't they nice to be so generous in the way they help the next generation of young bands? it's really makes me idolise them more. :} i <3>
& i think this is a song best played acoustically than electrically. :} love them love them!
but so let's recap.
Monday was lecture day, in a different lecture theatre because the convention centre was being used for graduating seniors. & so i wasn't accustomed to having a TABLE and swinging CHAIRS... note that i said swinging, not revolving. but whatever, newswriting went by fast, and we left for lunch at canteen 3. i always buy the wrong thing at canteen 3! >:( i never buy the good stuff. grrrr. but after lunch, we had 2 hours to spare before MRM lecture, so we went to the library. WE as in J, Alan, Angella, Ky & I. Oh, we played boardgames at the library. Wheel of Fortune & Uno & the lamest Price is Right. I think boardgames should be easy to play. If there are too many rules or instructions, it just spoils the game. :( But Wheel of Fortune was quite funny. :} I wanted to do my poll interview (interviewing smokers) but I was scareddddd, so ended up not doing any. It was raining anyway. So MRM lecture was like... y'know, the same... & MM, like, luckily we weren't chosen to do the skit. It was in front of the whole cohort mind you. I would have died from the thought of it. (*at this point, I wanted to write something clever Sheldon always says when a statement has "kinks" in it, but I can't recall his exact words, so you go look it up. 8) The Big Bang Theory. ) Had French as usual, although I am starting to have negative thoughts about it. I SHOULD NOT, kill the negative thoughts, kill them!!!
Tuesday I arrived in school on the dot at 9am, I am not usually that late... Ky & Eug & Alan waited. Even Angella waited OUTSIDE the lecture theatre... like wth, just go in already... :/ Gah, things have changed. Things have changed. Lunch was at SIM, had quite a bit of fun during lunch, just talking about mindless stuff. :} but it didn't last long. MRM was an eye-opener for us. At least we got the tutorial over with, and then my MM group met up to delegate the work... & a couple of us headed out to the smoker's corner to get some interviewees. It was a harrowing experience, hahaha (inside joke) Then i went home. (one of the rare days of the week i get home before dark. 0_O
Wednesday was tutorialllllzzzzz, & TVProd didn't go too well. I thought I could handle the director's seat, but I was horribly wrong. Carylyne was really nice to be my host of my script, but honestly, my script was written... quite sadly. :/ I have much to amend by Monday. :(
eek! sophia bush & brandon routh in a comedy together?! even if they are not playing a couple in the movie... it's still great news!
&&&&&& I think i saw the Leonard from The Big Bang Theory!!! :o
okay I digress. Gah, Tvprod isn't much fun right now... *& i just got blasted in the ears by BUSTED. :( damn it. MM test was siiiiiiiick in a bad way. :'( Even netball couldn't help dispel my worries for the days ahead.... but i did manage to run faster than last week, very much so! :} even if it was only one round... whatever yeah?! American Idol was awesomeeeeee top 3! just refer to the review above and you'll get the gist! I actually read all of it and found it to be quite accurate. Now if only I could describe & analyse stuff like that!
Oh great, JJ just spoiled me again. Hilarie Burton & Chad Michael Murray are leaving OTH after the 6th season!? WHY?! I mean, WHY HILARIE?! Hilarie Burton is one of my favourite actresses by the way, because I love Peyton. :} rahhhhhh, i wanna watch all of OTH 6 nowzxxxxxzz. But no, NO TIME.
Thursday was Newswriting early in the morning. God, I swearrrrrrrrrr, I can never articulate myself enough... so my feedback was basically useless. My consultation was useless. I HATE IT BECAUSE I CANNOT EXPRESS WHAT I WANT TO SAY & I GET UNCOMFORTABLE. & when I'm uncomfortable i tend not to take in what people are saying, so i forget what they are saying and don't know what they were talking about when i want to. GREAT. On a brighter note, the deli at atrium has nice banana cake, which is cheap too. After advertising, which was basically nothing much because Mr Tay was feeling a little under the weather... but we managed to complete some work! I worked on Literature Review with Carylyne until sssssay... 8 plus? I don't even know if we're on the right track... It feels so weird. :( Okay... my heart just jumped to my windpipe because my father sneezes. I hate it when i get caught off guard & it's because i'm easily freaked out. :/ Timid you say... whatever. American Idol results were awesome! I mean, c'mon, I got myself spoiled on FB that Kris was in the finale... but still, I think Katy Perry is quite a good singer, as in I like her songs, but she really shouldn't be like that performing! & what's with the Adam Lambert cape *glares* Kris! Did you know Kris has one thumbnail painted, & Adam has all his fingernails painted except for one thumbnail. It's like a show of great friendship or something haha, it's so cute! X}
I KNOW HE'S AWESOME BUT I STILL HAVE TO SAY IT.... HOW AWESOME IS KRIS?! X)
i hope the .gif plays...
taylor swiiiiiiiift. had to put it in.
Today I managed to wake up early enough... *my dream of Kris was shattered...* & I went to the Botanical Gardens. On the bus I sat near the window, and then this bee/fly/insect had to INVADE MY PERSONAL SPACE. I hate it when insects suddenly buzz near you and I get terrified... so I was oddly sitting away from the window... but there was someone next to me... so I couldn't move to the next seat. Luckily it never flew into my face, I must have looked weird to a couple of people though. :/ Whatever, I should take 75 more often... have cute guys at bus stops ahah. It was bloody hot at Botanical Gardens though... grrr.... luckily wear shorts... & so we waited for everyone to come, resulting in me saying that I should have come half an hour later... it wouldn't have made a difference... haha... nah I'm not one to come late. It wasn't as fun as I thought it would be... :/ Home after and I watched Survivor yay! & then I was about to go out to meet the gang for the Marina Barrage thing... but suddenly it was cancelled because it was RAINING. 8-( oh well... so here I am. Oh yeah, I think I misdialed my sis's number just now... & then some random dude that sounded like a lecturer/relative called back. Quite rude too.
He was like,
"Who's this?"
"Xh."
"What?"
"Xh...?"
"What???!"
"Huh... Who's this?"
"No, no, who's THIS?"
"No, Who are you?"
"You called me..."
"Huh, no I didn't call you..."
*hangs up*
Ah well, I didn't mean to mis-dial?! Anyway, I got confused by the man so I just hung up. The beauty of phone calls. You can end the conversation anytime you want. :}
Okay, so I'm off to do some work. Catch y'all later.

i had to post this. :}
10:07 pm
you know how when you are on a bus ride home, you start thinking about homework and decide that you are going to complete them... but when you DO get home, and open your Mac, you just get distracted by the various social networking sites or itsy bitsy stuff and you soon forget that you have work and then you do remember and curse yourself for forgetting... which leads you to come blog about it. :/ see how this all links together? GRAH! i should go do my homework.

what do you feel about actors / actresses crossing over to the music side of things? i mean, if it were music artistes crossing over to acting, i guess it isn't as weird as the other scenario? well, maybe that is the norm... but lately many actors seem to be dabbling in music as well! & i think it's pretty weird.
take for example Gossip Girl stars Taylor Momsen & Leighton Meester.
There's more where this came from, but I have to say, she's pretty edgy for a singer? It's like those kind where you are mostly just saying the words rather than singing it. More like the NYC underground rocker scene right? I can't judge cos' I've never been underground.
i like this song better. it's catchy okay? & leighton meester actually sounds quite good?! you probably can't place her face to this voice, but it's really pretty unique. but maybe it's the mixing? I choose to believe she has a nice voice. & wow, if cobra starship sounds like this then i think i like the band. :}
as for MUSIC ARTISTES doing acting... :}:} remember McFly in Just My Luck????? :} They've a new acting role in this UK show HOLLYOAKS! The show is nothing, I just watched the part where they came on! They even had a song!!! Falling in Love is a great tune!
they come on around 3:20, & I love DANNY & TOM!!! Tom got more than a few words, haha, but they cut Dougie's line completely... I think Tom was funny! He is really embarrassed about it though, from the Paul O' Grady interview previously.
but he's awesome. they are all awesome. :D
on to more advertising stuff...
I saw this subaru ad that caught my eye today! it's in the strait's times front page & it's the same idea IKEA had. Subaru used the AWARE saga to sell their cars! the ad says " Once you're AWARE, you will not shut up and sit down" or something like that. It's pretty clever of them to bank on the recent saga to you know what i mean! Haha, just like the IKEA & the holland v naked incident. :} CLEVER CLEVER!
i shall end with a video from TAYLOR SWIFT. can't envy her enough... she's in london for goodness sake.
okay love you all!

wow, i love how he has so many guitars & that he plays amazingly!
he sings this song quite good too wow.
i think i might like this version more than the original.
WOW, a very interesting & unique take on "I'm Yours".
I wish I was half as successful as her, but then I would be Miley Cyrus, ew.
Lady Gaga! :} Her eyelashes are weirdly made up, but I guess that's how she stands out, by her fashion. She really doesn't give a hoot to what people say about her I think, her dress sense is way out of this world! ;}
HQHQ is azzzmazzzzing.
& of course I always save the best for last. MCFLY ARE BACK & THEY ARE UBER UBER UBER UBER SUPER DUPER UBER AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! I'm really happy for them that they are happy and I love following them on twitter and I think Danny's hair is kind of straight and weird but it's a good nice kind of weird. I still love them to itsy bitsy pieces they are amazingggggggggggg & so down to earth even though Harry joked that they were arrogant haha. :} & LOL at danny demonstrating how fans try to grab him in that private area ahahhaaha. :} <3

omg, kris allen is in the top 3 of american idol! i was so worried that he might get kicked off because he seemed like the least likely to stay after last night's review and based on the top 4... but yay! i can see him for one more week! it's so awesome because he really deserves it, i don't care what anyone says. it's the fact! :}
& today i got loads of assignments and panicky moments for deadlines. i am so so so so so not in love with school right now. sob, now i am feeling the year 2 is shit vibe. :( but i must persevere! if not i might just drown.
okay, loves

I haven't been home for dinner with my family for the whole of this week. :( My mom's the best though! She cooked me a bowl of instant noodles and cut the sausage into tiny pieces! I was on the bus home and thinking of adding a sausage and wondering about cutting it up. I didn't tell my mom to cut it up but she did! Ah, the wonders of a mother! & I don't know what to do for Mother's Day. :( Ah well... I don't like school much nowadays. It feels so... clustered, and I don't even know why I wrote that word. It doesn't even express what I'm trying to say. Oh, right, I was saying how Josie Lau, the ex-prez of AWARE had some traits that I see in myself, which is sad because nobody really likes her anymore... Okay, I am being too harsh. She must have had her reasons right? I shall be neutral about this. About the traits, yeah;
I'm pretty much on the low side of life right now, at least netball today was pretty good. I ran a round without stopping, but I was panting horribly. OMG, how unfit am I? I don't even want to know. Let's just hope I can strengthen my stamina, because I'm seriously starting to think that if I don't, I might fail my NAPFA, and then die.
k lovsssz.

I have failed to concentrate on an assignment. I am going to just rot. I think I might just need tomorrow's date with Canida. :)
17 Again again!! but wait, I'm tired! So tired! I have written a considerable amount I guess. Inspiration is not with me tonight. French today was... okay! Anyway, lectures today were... cold. Extremely cold. I woke up to heavy rain and thought, damn, why do things like that happen? It stopped just as I was about to leave the house, so all was good. & today's newswriting test can just kill me. I mean, just like wow. I am speechless. Yes, I don't think I can remember what I want to talk about now. Okay. Media Research tomorrow. Who shall I pair up with? Wait, I doubt I can actually choose now can I? I mean... sigh. It's okay. I love MRM. I love MRM. Just keep thinking that. ;}
zzzzzzzz.

dear blog,
i have been neglecting you in pursuit of other rather insignificant things. i am sorry to have strayed thus far. now i shall dedicate myself to pour my heart out to you more, and leave the rest behind. only you can help me. :(
so today was spent just rotting. i can't believe i'm rotting. i have better things to do than rot. i am not a rotter. i do not rot. i thrive. i am supposed to thrive. instead i'm rotting at home. argh i hate this part of myself. am not in a good mood and assignments are not making things any better.
watched X-Men 3 today, i thought it was pretty sad. i mean... SO MANY KEY CHARACTERS DIED! & the first they had to cut off was Scott/Cyclops. Seriously? what were they thinking?! & to cut him off is one thing... but to make him die an insignificant death?! oh that i cannot take!!! & you had to make it look like it was because of Jean that made him so miserable and he was more complete with her and whatnot. ew I do not like Jean. But Wolverine was okay... 8) & Bobby!!! Okay, I'm not even a fan and i'm talking about shows like this. guh...
I have a leads test tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get reacquainted with leads on the bus ride to school tomorrow.
Okay, bye kiddos.
4:04 pm
i can't catch up with everything that's going on around me okay?
why are they moving so fast?!
i have short legs, i can't keep up!
now please let me know what's on with the world.
thank you.
9:58 am

everything you'd want in a video is in here!!! :}
it's like so typical chick flick but I LOVE IT!!!!
kk stop drooling now.

wednesday was spent in TVPROD. i was the first one to the studio and i was awfully scared because i was alone. so i just sat outside waiting for someone to come. we tried producing the It's Reel Time script, and failed! haha, but it was fun! i mean, i didn't get a role because there were too many people... i'll always be like that won't i? the last one standing because i'm afraid to voice out my own thoughts and opinions... :/ but anyway, it was pretty cool to see a script being played on screen! :}
then Media Management was okay...
so I met ky & angella for netball "practice" but in actual fact they were holding trials for those who want to join competitive. Since we had our minds set on joining recreational... we just sat around and left after a while. Angella waited 3 hours after school just to not do anything... Ky came from home just to not do anything... I changed into sports attire just to not do anything... I think angella felt quite saddened and went home while Ky & I went to Clementi to have dinner at Mos Burger. Didn't eat, but I drank bubble tea!
Thursday it rained in the morning (which i hate because that's when i go to school) and i almost slipped a couple of times but i made it to class safely. The bus ride was horrendous though... took so long I thought i was going to be late. So anyway, NEWSWRITING was fun! I like the teacher! She's pretty cool! & I found out Isabel & Justine's class is after mine! So i think I can bump into them every Thursday! Advertising was ok too. Just showing of ads. I am scared because everything seems so relaxed now. I'm paranoid yes.
then i met Sherene & Peiwen & xy for dinner at marché! didn't taste as good as before! :/ oh well, my mood was gone anyway.
i'm sorry peiwen! hardly meet up and it had to be like this! but it was nice meeting you again! :D
i don't get it, seriously. i don't bloody hell get it.
Happy Labour Day everyone!
