say hello to study sessions, and goodbye to fun times
Remember how in our secondary school days, our June/Dec holidays were the most fun-filled months of the year? We've bidded goodbye to times like that, no more wake-up-late-watch-tv-and-bum-around days. The holidays have been tremendously boring and dreary (except for a bit of retail therapy here and there:D)and everyday i wake up with the same thoughts: "Okay, c'mon, get up and study!" ; I NEED SOMETHING EXCITING TO SPICE MY HOLIDAYS UP!
/edit The numbers 1044 keep appearing and it's FREAKY! The last time 1044 kept popping up everywhere, I got the daddy to buy 4D, and I WON! OMG, I'll get him to buy again! HAHAH
SLOW DANCE
Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
You better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Do you run through each day
On the fly?
When you ask How are you?
Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?
You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say,"Hi"
You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift....
Thrown away.
Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.
FOR WINNERS ONLY!
our team rocks! we're CHAMPS for the BOYS and 2ND for the GIRLS! HIPHIPHOORAYYY! the atmosphere felt so familiar cause many of us have been through it since our Sec 1 days, and today was the last time us J2s will be experiencing it. This was the exact thought that went through my mind during the last shot I threw, and as weird as it sounds, I've actually started to miss bowling already even though it hasn't even officially ended. ):
while today was a wonderful day for the team as a whole, it was terribly emotional and nerve-wrecking as well, for the girls particularly. Picture this- us girls giving each other reassuring hugs, grabbing each others' hands,and biting our lips with our eyes tightly shut as they were bout to announce the winners of the quartet event and the girls title and being too shocked to accept our names not being called out and 'SAJC' being called out before RJC.
It was really rather disappointing that we still lost to RJ by 9 points (i think) and we lost to AC marginally for quartet, and to top it off, i got kicked out of top10 and so yes, all that hope to get into Masters went *POOF just like that. And as much as i tried to contain all those emotions, the disappointment i felt then was really too overwhelming and for the first time in my life, i cried cause of bowling. Ohwell, but vic, rodricks and i have come up with this wickedly ingenius plan :):) hohoho.
I LOVE OUR TEAM.:)
it was so awesome how we were so pumped up and filled with that much zest during our games. sorry for being a terrible crybaby today though ): <3<3<3 to all of you:)
Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to gray
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on
You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee you go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces every time
And I don't need no carryin' on
Because you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
L.O.V.E
I just got my first birthday present yesterday, and while turning eighteen isn't as big a deal as we all like to say it is, I am pretty psyched cos I loveee birthdays! :D Who doesn't? :D The parents were being really sweet and cute; they wanted to bring me out to wherever I want, for supper/ice cream/ whatever.
Parents: Let's go out for ice cream!
M: AHH no don't want, lazzzzy
Parents: But it's your birthday!
M: Not yet! hahah
Parents: Hm, tomorrow go out okay!
And they still bought pizzas back! :) What would I do without them parents? :)
Anyway, we had training as per normal today, it's our last one ): We had lunch after, and Cali/Vic came over to do some studying, which wasn't particularly fruitful once again. It all ended with a bit of jogging/ walking Leo/ sitting&talking at the bench at the playground :)
poof
I suddenly blacked out this morning,and in the process two chairs fell, a new fan broke into half (?!), everyone panicked and I got myself two bruises. That alone made the morning quite eventful. rah
up and onnn, yippee
i am supposed to be in bed sleeping right now cos we're bowling really early in the morning tmr. i know those evil hunger pangs/ cravings will start setting in like after the first game so lovely mother of mine bought two huggge packets of cereal for me! hahah
today started on a horrid note and there weren't any signs of it getting any better. in any case, it just worse. thankfully that little bit of shopping after the meeting in school lifted my spirits a tad bit. anyway, my room has lotsa roses everywhere, and it smells so loveeeely.
mm, i realised this post has splatters of random stuff that have absolutely no links with one another, but i guess that's cos im half stoned now, and at the same time, my mind seems to be in this very ugly mess. aight i shall retreat to my rose-smelling room now to get some sleep before ADIV tmr! :D
all the best ya'll!
to you mich
I guess this time you're really leaving
I heard your suitcase say goodbye
And as my broken heart lies bleeding
You say true love it's suicide
You say you're cried a thousand rivers
And now you're swimming for the shore
You left me drowning in my tears
And you won't save me anymore
I know you know we've had some good times
Now they have their own hiding place
I can promise you tomorrow
But I can't buy back yesterday
I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you
When you breathe I want to be the air for you
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you
Words can't say what a love can do
I'll be there for you
psychological addiction
It is quite sad how so many of us resort to putting forward some kind of fake front, and we hide behind all those forced smiles and cheeriness, trying to mask all that loneliness and hide the desire to be accepted/loved.
Anyhoo, on a lighter note, Xinle brought home-made chocolate-cheesecake-sort-of for us today, and ohmymama it was heavenly :9, not to mention terribly sinful. But never mind, we can always postpone the dieting! HOHO
.
we had a 3hour-long training today, and then liz, cali and i headed to town for flagday! though it was tremendously humid and there were stupid boys, we had quite a lot of fun :) good quality time with the girls! studying was meant to be integrated into those few hours spent in town, but knowing us, we just talked a lot, people-watched, shopped a lot, and tried on (uber pricey$) stuff. i think cali and i are quite in love with the (sexy) guess tee. hahah
AH OKAY I AM SO GUILTY NOW, SO I WILL STUDY TMR, YESIWILLLLLL.
Being happy,
That's what I'm trying so hard to be.
Out of Reach
Out Of Reach
Knew the signs
Wasn't right
I was stupid for a while
Swept away by you
And now I feel like a fool
So confused,
My heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you?
Out of reach, so far
I never had your heart
Out of reach,
Couldn't see
We were never
Meant to be
Catch myself
From despair
I could drown
If I stay here
Keeping busy everyday
I know I will be okay
But I am
So confused,
My heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you?
Out of reach, so far
I never had your heart
Out of reach,
Couldn't see
We were never
Meant to be
So much hurt,
So much pain
Takes a while
To regain
What is lost inside
And I hope that in time,
You'll be out of my mind
And I'll be over you
But now I'm
So confused,
My heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you?
Out of reach,
So far
I never had your heart
Out of reach,
Couldn't see
We were never
Meant to be
Out of reach,
So far
You never gave your heart
In my reach, I can see
There's a life out there
For me
update!:)
My, it has been a rather long time since i last blogged! school's hectic as usual (work and more work) and the whole hype about A div nearing is even getting to the usually not so enthu ones like myself! :D i am just quite sad that my birthday will be spent entirely at yishun safra): anyhoo, i'll really miss training with all you wonderful bowlers after Adiv, what can i say, ALL OF YOU make one of the most aweeeesomeee buncha friends!
we had Mother Tongue BT2 and it was bloody difficult; so many words i couldn't read/don't remember ever seeing, and the passages were very not-understandable. eeks. so anywayyy, my days have been rather mundane recently, they pretty much revolve around wanting to pull all my hair out/getting all stressed up, barbeque at liz's, gown tailoring, QH's eighteenth, lots of ben and jerry's, and uh okay, i think the list just about stops there. i'm living sucha no-life life now, and that's really quite depressing. AND i've been having the weirdest and most disturbing dreams that jerk me outta my sleep. RAH.
ogaaay i am gonna have an early night today, so goodnight world!<3
AND A HAPPYHAPPY SAWEEET EIGH18TEENTH TO CALI DEAREST! :)
i hope you are cheered up, i know moumoumou and mrs XXX may try to put you down sometimes, but always remember that you've got us girls with you aight! ALL MY LOVE TO YOU!
(and to adam too, heheh)
