I am weary, and I a stranger,
Lead me to the land of angels.
Be my eyes in time of darkness,
Be my shield against host of faery,
Be my wings till I find my home.

The moon is pretty tonight, but sometimes it's not all that makes your day. A few points of note:
Lapping waves.......lazy clouds drifting by....dove?! It's really strong!
Monday, August 30, 2004
Hey, two days of holiday tomorrow! Though it also means we are getting nearer and nearer to our promos... Hmm, tired today, but must try to finish doing the thing by tonight so it can dry by tomorrow....Huimin wants to get flowers and stuff for teachers..fine with me, i am not really bothered, shall go back to Haig Girls tomorrow - why do some people go to their schools to look for their friends? Surely if you go back to your school it is to look for your teachers...
Badminton today has made me realise that I . am. UNFIT.

Hmm, conrad de-brief was quite fun, actually....The penthouse gives you such a good view of the scenery! Perhaps it is what people dream of having when they "make it big", I don't like that phrase.
Watched the "Bourne Supremacy " today...really quite an interesting show! Though it's very confusing to follow. It's quite sad, I guess...
I'm taking it as a personal insult that the sky is so clear, and the full moon is so bright tonight. Bah, humbug.

Hmm, today was quite fun, I guess, even down to the GP composition. It was quite fun writing it...don't see why the girls are so biased against Zheng An, I mean, I don't like him either because he insults people, but at least I don't treat every sentence he says like some bad smell that just polluted the air or something, like Clara does? I guess MeiYi has a reason, though....
Got back my personality profile part II today. Still portrays the same basic fact: that I am slack and disorgainsed and totally lack any sort of ambition whatsoever. The SC guy was supposed to call me to meet me during break today, but he didn't, should I be feeling happy? Tomorrow there's the conrad debrief...10-5....what a waste of time......
I'm going to sleep early. At least you can't feel down sleeping....
Thursday, August 26, 2004
Ok, really got no time today. Just back from piano, must go and do Haydn essay! Note to myself for composition: what about a duet for violin and piano, and the theme be a boat or something? Had this interesting melody in my head which I seem to have forgotten...damn. Dental check today! Dentist was a really funny guy, was from TJ too! Kept wanting to do TJ cheers....Argh, really must go and do that silly essay.
Isn't it weird to take an ATCL after a DipAB?

Hmm, slept for 14 hours today. Never slept so much before, but feeling much better now. Ok, so we are finally confirmed to be joining Chinese Orchestra. The silly thing is that they want us to learn how to play the double bass...not that I mind, but the sectionals (Ok, only one, is on the last day of school.) Funny how come we always end up in a CCA that always takes up the last day of school. Never mind, perhaps we can go out for dinner or something. Highly unlikely, though, considering we end at eight.
I hate saturdays.
Tuesday, August 24, 2004
It's early today! I need to sleep early today, you see. Went to the doctor, was asked to walk in a straight line, but couldn't. Three miserable steps and I couldn't walk straight! Thank goodness PW is over. Going to sleep at 8, can't take it already....
Humph, I have all the time in the world to write an entry today because it's actually monday night, but I'm waiting for people to send me PW stuff. Argh, been losing so much sleep over it in the past two nights.
Did 2.4 run today, ok, I promise not to turn this into a sob-story of how I should have listened to all the people who told me not to run. Though I must admit that the results were surprising ( I have never run that fast since secondary one!), the consequences are definitely not worth it. I was so afraid I was going to black out on the track, which would have been so... embarassing. And there's something scary about not being able to stand properly. Feeling so dependent is NOT a nice feeling. I think I'd better go and get the iron pills from the doctor very soon. Maybe tomorrow? Or today, considering it's now Tuesday. Let's see how I feel in the morning.
Oh, looking at other people's blogs today, I'm thinking if I should start adding more emotions and thoughts into my blog. It would definitely make it more interesting, but I'm not sure I want people to know how I feel. Coming to think of it, I don't even want to know how I feel.
Oh heck, I think that's enough blabbering.

Exhaustion. Look at the time.
Sunday, August 22, 2004
Ok, this is actually me writing on Saturday night, at least, in my brain it's still Saturday night. Doing written report, I realise this could actually become a swear word, like: "Oh, Written Report It!", if you get my drift. So I haven't been writing for 1 night...which feels like a really long time, surprisingly.
Conrad Experience, huimin, I totally admit that I am jinxed. I just KNEW I was going to get housekeeping, and I did. Haha, but it was quite fun after all. At least the person didn't try to exploit us or anything. Do I regret not having a life and staying in my room sleeping all night? Kind of, but actually not much because I really needed to conserve energy for tonight. Yes, and I'm grateful I did.
Tomorrow, we are going to have a PW meeting WITHOUT our project file. Let's hope we can make our way through it.
"Average looking girls are attached, ugly girls are attached, but pretty girls aren't because no one dares to chase them". Interesting quote. Food for thought.
Thursday, August 19, 2004
Er...Violin exam today. I realise that I have been neglecting my friends..sorry! I'll try to do it over the weekend. It's really bad of me, when she's always there for me. Ok, feel inspired to reply now.... for what it's worth....
Monday, August 16, 2004
This week has been dedicated to PW. We must really try to make our file look thicker, but we can't just throw in a lot of silly articles if they aren't relevant. Sigh, just when I really wanted to start work. And I can't do it tonight, because even now I have to go and annotate another silly book, and do the same for some magazines, just after I finished transcribing an interview....sob....
Friday, August 13, 2004
There's a flu bug going around school, and i think I've caught it. NAPFA today. Well, I seem to be fitter than I thought. Whatever. Marie got a rabbit for a present. Weird.
Sometimes, parents can be quite irritating.
Ok, very.
Thursday, August 12, 2004
Hmm, econs test today....what can I say? Fail?
Went to look at how jamming works today. Er....it's ok, I guess. But give me my music anyday. I guess it's fine when you are feeling irritated or you have something you want to protest about, but what when you want to feel happy? Or contented and peaceful?
Thank you for the meaningful presents! I wonder - did you think of what to buy then buy it or buy it and think of the meaning? Whatever happens- it fits! Thank you!
Wednesday, August 11, 2004
Happy birthday to my sister! Flowers always bring such a happy mood to any day or occasion! Just finished practising violin, perhaps I won't be so dead after all. Going to study at least a little for econs tomorrow, but don't mind! I guess the reason why I'm so happy today is because I can put off going to my aunt's house for the next two weeks! Oh, NAPFA is on friday. Hmm, I shall try not to fail. Shuttle run is just going to kill me. I still remember how Mrs Loy caught Huimin and me practising outside the staff room, sigh, I know she thinks I am one weird person....
Tuesday, August 10, 2004
I admit I'm stressed. I admit I'm stressed and it's my own fault.
After that, it's very hard to blog anymore.
Sunday, August 08, 2004
Doing work today...not very much but it's a good start. Feel quite motivated, especially when I get a daily countdown of the number of days to the exams. Sometimes, I really think it's easier to lie to yourself than face the truth. Does it really hurt you more in the end? I think it does, but for now, it's easier. Sigh.
Saturday, August 07, 2004
Today was a day that was tiring, but the sad thing is that it wasn't because of me working too hard or anything - but I wish it was! Went for piano in the morning, and I really think perhaps it isn't going to be as slack as I would wish it to be. Chee Hang is taking his LR on the same day as my violin, so good luck to him.
Class outing in the afternoon. Pretty norma, but I must confess I did my part to create that feeling of boredom, was stoning quite badly. I guess I have a lot to think about today....
Celebrated birthday with Selene at Grandmother's house again. A bit pointless, especially when we don't even bother to get a proper cake. I really cannot be bothered nowadays, but seventeen.......sounds old.
I seriously hate it when someone copies what I wear. It's seriously irritating, and I can't help changing out of what I was wearing in the first place. I seriously am irritated.
Friday, August 06, 2004
End of Symposium. It was quite interesting, and the place was truly very grand. I must admit it was a wonderful day too.
I'm sorry I can't express myself properly. Sometimes I hurt myself and those around me because of that.
Thursday, August 05, 2004
SIF Symposium is really interesting! Ok, so it may be a bit high-brow and all that, but it really is educational listening to the speakers and the question and answer sessions even if I don't contribute. And one really really strong plus point is that the food is really really good! And classy too. And the toilets are really nice, (someone please take note of this).
So I spent one whole day sitting down and scribbling notes on my lap...yes, I actually took notes at this seminar, haha. Feel very motivated to go and take part in such key discussions, but I am too slack to try.
Tomorrow another day of seminar - it really is quite fun to dress up. I didn't know I could look like that. Quite surprising. Haha.
I laugh too much. Ha.
Wednesday, August 04, 2004
The violin is such an expressive instrument, and it has so many moods that it can express - perhaps one day I will be able to create them. It's so pretty! And also, exam coming soon. Hmm. A bit worried, but I think I'll make it.
Home so early today. Well, didn't do much yet, but there's the night to make up for it. Ok, I wish I wasn't home so early, but it doesn't matter. Heck.
Tuesday, August 03, 2004
Just back from PW outing...........not very productive, but I got something out of it! Anyway, must go and practise the LEFT hand of some composition by emily - silly but necessary. I think the rhythm is just going to kill me, plus I got to coordinate the piano left hand with melissa on the right hand, PLUS an alto saxophone, PLUS a string bass. Huh. Wonder how it's going to sound. And I must also do integration tonight.,..A bit, at least.
Monday, August 02, 2004
Exhaustion. I have no idea why, but I'm really tired. Slept during maths lecture, on top of missing the lecture on friday, no have no idea what integration is whatsoever. Doing PW. Argh. Otherwise a pretty normal day, thank goodness. Perhaps this week will be good after all.
Sunday, August 01, 2004
Hmm, PW just over. Quite productive today, my nose is leaking horribly, as usual. Violin rehearsal was quite ok, but I'm really bad at aural! The last time I did it was like in sec one, so I'm really rusty. On the other hand, I;m supposed to have improved because I take music. So I'm not really sure why - I just know I'm bad at it. Hmm, met Xuhua today, she still looks the same although she went to ACJC. It's weird - thought they were supposed to be more cool or something.
Can't sell those bloody badges. $2!!! On Sunday!!!!
Right, dinner. And bed, hopefully........I know what you are thinking, and I don't care. Haha......
it's not the years in your life that count,
