it's the first of august! and it's my dad's birthday!!! =)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAPA!

although i don't say it ( in fact i only said it once, since the adam khoo thingie) but i love you so much. haha! i just don't dare to say it. and vice versa. but i know actions speak louder then words and you've shown your love for us all in various ways! =D and i know you won't see this. haha.

Symptoms of too much caffeine (headache, tremor, nervousness, irritability, increased sensitivity), results from an intake of 200 to 500 milligrams of caffeine daily (two to six cups of coffee or three to eight cups of tea).

If you drink too much caffeine at one time, it can make you feel nervous or jumpy. Your hands may shake. You may feel like there's something you forgot to do. Too much caffeine will make it hard to fall asleep, which might mean you won't be able to pay attention in school the next day.

And too much caffeine can give you a stomachache, headache, or a racing heartbeat. In fact, kids with heart problems should not drink caffeine because it's known to affect heart rates and force the heart to work harder.

i had FOUR CUPS OF BLACK COFFEE ON SUNDAY. all in an hour. omg, and i felt groggy, and my heartbeat increased rapidly. like i'm on the verge of death. i did feel jumpy, and nauseated. why four cups? well, because my sister and i went to coffee bean for breakfast, i paid a dollar because i felt that i could do with some coffee. and when she told me that a cup usually cost 3 bucks, but since it's before 11am, it's FREEflow. and being the thrifty/ yao-gui/ giam-siap/ want-more-pay-less person that i am. i decied to have a new cup in every ten minutes. so by eleven, i would have downed four cups or more. and i did have four cups. (but technically, i shared it with my sister, so it should be two cups per person. two cups of VERY POTENT coffee.) and i went to cell and service all groggy and nauseated. oh-no.

i learn now, that sometimes making your money worth, doesn't apply to somethings.

gave tab her bible! she's very happy, or so she claims. nevermind i BELIEVE that she's really happy, and she ought to be cause i took a month to save enough cash. haha.

oh, btw! juliana and i went to have our dresses tailored. =) and my mums friend was telling me how MY MUMS' figure was so nice! and that people then, wear jeans waist-high. which explains why they have slender figures. well haha, you want a nice figure? be traditional! don on a waist-high jean(s).

CTI (carpenters tools international) they're a christian band from a church that offers summer services? lol, or rather outreach. and they went to our school to play songs for sec3 students. and us being sec5s and curious, went to join in the fun! i went home and checked out their site. and they do really cool things!! like, intense musical training for two weeks! and then a month long trip OVERSEAS. waw.

CLICKHERETOSEEIT!

Jealousy brings about a bitter and mean feeling. moreover it's the root of ALL evil. but why can't i stop being jealous? ugh. is being the best in anything/everything that important? in this world, i'm afraid so. and unfortunately i can't be the best. because i see people better then i am, and yes sadly, i'm jealous. =(

cell group on sunday was fun! we played games of polar bear, game after game. and denise came back. =) mighty great to see her after a long long while. but i think we played too much? and didn't do what we were suppose to do. oops.

i'm feeling so emo(tional) now. don't talk to me. gahh. i wish with all my heart to kick that feeling out. gah.

oh, intending to bake some cookies on thursday cause it's a holiday. going for festival of praise on saturday. i CANNOT wait. =D

emo.emo.emo.

it's funny how i can feel so happy, a surge in my emotions just a minute ago, and now everything seems to spiral downwards. blame melancholic songs.

why am i not the best! what am i do on earth. i am created. for?


everything in a nutshell:

• wanted to put up some pictures. but i'll prolly do it later/next time.
• and my tailored dress haha! i am to keep mum about it. and i hope it'll be as nice as i think it'll be.
• had 5 curry puffs today. i think i'm going to stay away from coffee and curry puffs for a long while.
• i think i'll dye and rebond my hair after the o's.
• and i'll try on contacts before graduation.
• post up photos soon.
• my dogs are bald now, many people think that they look like rats! gah! but i still love them all the same!
• i'm DYING to bake some cookies.

tata all. thursday is a holiday, the words CAN'T WAIT is written all over my face.

Speak to me, when all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
Move along

my template's nice! although it's clicky.

gosh, i know, i'm not suppose to be online, but i'm sending out math answers. you can't blame me. =)

anyways! my dogs left for their grooming! so they'd be bald when they reach home. and i'm going to get my dress tailored tomorrow! AND I HAVEN'T THOUGHT OF A DESIGN! i just want a simple tube dress that goes down to knee length not anywhere longer. and just one colour. yea, VERY simple, why don't i just get it from some random shop? gosh. i REALLY don't know. i'm thinking of something which i can wear at any suitable occasion not just for graduation which is at *ahem* the Swissôtel (just in case you can't see the font, it says the SWISSOTEL) *faints* yes the i suppose 5 star hotel? =)

=) i can't wait for graduation! but that means that i've to do my o's and prelims. and TIME IS PASSING BY SO SO SO FAST. omg.

and very random but i have to say this. i LOVE FIVETWO. you guys rock man. i can't find any other class that showers after PE, eats maggie, buys pancakes, orders donut/macdonalds/ and what have you. omg!=)

tried out the hair straightener today when huanli bought it to class (after my shower, i tried it.=)) turned out nicer then i thought, my hair was flat for a good ten minutes and it went back to normal again! omg.

but ten minutes is better then nothing.

=) and today's bio remedial although it was annoying but when we had our break while waiting for the osmosis reaction to take place, we took A LOT of crazy photos. nerds, ah lians and all that jazz.

juls has been coming by more often then before, and yes she has a motive! (who doesn't! LOL) she wants to walk my dogs. lol! see it works very well in three good ways. firstly i can trail behind her, w/o having to hold on to the leash. secondly, my dogs get LONGER walks because she loves to walk them, the longer the better! and thirdly, she likes to walk my dogs. =) haha! compromise.

on sunday i had cell, had A LOT of things on my mind. why? because on that day they were talking about gambling and such. Jac said something like, she never lied FOR her friend. so i reflected. omg, i do lie for my friends sometimes, but the main problem is that i MAKE my friends lie FOR me. and another thing, gambling, everyone knows that we shouldn't gamble. so what if other people gamble, should you? don't you have your own values? and yea, i gamble. although i played mahjong with money once. but i bet a lot. no, not those under horse-racing or 4D/toto kind. but i like to make bets with my friends. because i know that i will win. and usually i do, and what does that do to you? it makes you want to lay down more bets isn't it? it's because you're given a glimpse of hope that you'll earn a really quick buck.

well so, ernie said something like we have to have a stand? or something along that line. we have our values, and we have to stand by them, we need a foundation. what about me? i realised that i'm GREAT at giving excuses. really, that is the one thing i excel in. i set a goal for myself. ie, 2.4km run. i see 4 trees, and intends to run to the 4th three and stop. but i run and run, and see the second tree, and decides to stop. wth?

another eg. today i will finish nutrition in plants. and what do i do? oh, i play the piano, play with my dogs. sleep. and the day passes again. and that cycle just goes on. because i have that mentality that tomorrow, or later, i will have the time to do. i will have that will later. it's ALWAYS LATER. never NOW. goodness.

nevermind.. i ought to go bathe now.

=D today was great all the same.

oh Lord give me the strength to stay awake, bless my family and my friends (and my dogs), help me to grow closer to you because i have that distant feeling (again). and i pray that i can attend the FOP and the planetshakers concert. give me the strength to study for my prelims that is in 45days time. and that i'll do well for prelims AND the o's to get into the school/course i want to. or rather show me what you want me to do. =) help me to bring more people to you too. amen.

i cooked dinner today!! =)

it's a happy day, everything feels so right.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRACIEE! I LOVE YOU A LOT!!

thanks for being there for us constantly! like 24/7 i could call you and you'd pick up. you've changed for the better in less then a year! and yes the change is remarkable! from someone who throws her tantrum every 5 seconds to someone with amazing patience! =)) now, thats what that convinced me to join you in your business thing at the end of the year! =)

anyways! i love you! keep up the positive attitude alrights? must always do things in moderation and don't forget to thank God sometime. =)(= and pls START to wear some skirts!

~

anyway!! today is tuesday, which also means that it's a very relaxed day for me. well supposedly. but it turned out quite bad. why? because i was feeling so angry at nothing, kept shouting at tab! but seriously! she called me dumb cause i helped her to call mrs lim. stupid! grr.. nvm.

so anyways, i was pissed over math, and then i had to rush home for chem tuition and she came EXTREMELY EARLY. omg, so she was waiting at my house while i was walking as if im sprinting from school to the bustop! and since i took the bridge (As always when im rushing) i'll look and see what bus is coming and omg! of all buses, 13 AND 608 has to come at the same time! omg. so yea, then juls and tab caught up with me and we waited for 13 and i went for tuition.

so anyways i had the indomee that pris sold to me. btw i have 30++ packs of instant noodles at my house now! just for me. omg, as if i'm preparing for war. lols. hmm feeling so sleepy these days, and it's the CA week! and every paper i sit for, i'll doze off. gosh.

yawn. and it's just tuesday. i can't wait for next week! thursday is a HOLIDAY. omg.

my mum's nagging at me, she kept telling me that pei ling is studying her butt off. and she does housework and looks after her sister and such and she still does well. omg, seriously i admire her.. but... sheesh. nvm. and this year, my cousin and pei ling are going to do their o's too! which also means that i'll be facing some serious comparing of results. my mum will go all 'if she can do this why can't you?' it's like asking me to speak chinese like some chinaman because if he can do it why can't i? ok nvm what a stupid analogy.

i REALLY REALLY need that momentum to start studying. i chuck all other stuffs aside! push up my glasses, tie up my hair, pull up my socks, pick up the pen, take all texts out, stick my HUGE head in the book, and put my brains to good use.

i should. i really should.
when the going gets tough, the going gets rough. it's a cynical truth. but, how about, when the going gets tough, the tough get going.

forgive my random musings.

chinese o's results out in a week or two. hmmm. i'm pretty positive that i'll retake.

Festival Of Praise!! =) it's don moen this year! from the 4th to the 6th of august in the indoor stadium! ( I THINK, NOT SURE OF DETAILS!)

PLANETSHAKERS CONCERT IN SINGAPORE! i've never been to one! so i hope that i can go for this year's. 12th of August. entrance fee is 4 bucks. do go! i'm SURE it'll be GOOD. =)

i can feel my eye bags, but i can't see them! one more month to my stupid prelims and i've yet to do my revision. omg, KILL ME SOMEBODY. even if you don't kill me, procrastination will, it's giving me a slow torturous death.

PS my dogs are going for their yearly grooming! =) this friday, so good riddance to their fur. which is a good thing too! considering that the weather here is crazy.

unfortunately, the world is never fair. it never is, and never will it be.

;manyphotos!

HI these are the photos we took while we were helping miss wong out backstage for KC's BMW. and yes, as usual my photos are not in order (AT LEAST they're in the proper days? i think.) and i look HUGE in them cause of my stupid arms. but do try to ignore that. anywhoo i'll give some lame caption and no, no proper entry because IM SO TIRED.
