tadaima !
today i met and met up with many people. like for eg: marc outside dorothy perkins at PS and wen jie at orchard. today was kind of an impromptu thngy as last friday, dawn didnt get to go kino cause of me. :( my mentoring meeting was pushed up so dawn ended up going home and me, rach, jinger, mel and josie hanged around at our usual places. ;) rach and i watched some vids in the com lab. :P MUAHA.
BUT TODAY ! :O
famous people's wives do not like pictures taken by the papparazzo[s] and flash cameras. :P
i went to kino with mrs yaotome miura and mrs kim TAI TAI. :D we met at dhoby, mrs YM got her stuff frm Daiso and then we headed for kino. not before getting my fave pretzel and walking around doing sme shopping and talking. finally got to kino and we had quite abit of fun at the lang section. rach-san got her jap dictionary and mrs YM and i laughed over sme "FUNNY" korean phrases. :P
then we later roamed around at the mags section [see above pics >>> :P ] and at the jap kids section and then at the jap section [WHICH DAWN AND I TOTALLY HYPERVENTILATED WHEN THE JAPS WERE SPEAKING CAUSE ITS LIKE - !!! :P ] the japs rlly do live it up here in singapore, despite our goods being pretty costly. and we saw many nice books and nice stuff.
which truthfully speaking is F-ng expensive. (-.-")
then after we had lunch at yoshinoya and became the ideal phototaking session. :P all thanks to ME trusty camera ! :D and then then then we went to heeren cause dawn-san wanted to buy smtg and they BOTH got SHINee albums. >>> argh RICH KIDS ! >:( the trip to heeren made me think abt 2 things - 1) getting headphones cause THE SOUND QUALITY IS LIKE MAXIMUM PLEASURE MAN ! although its highly dangerous when crossing the road. =/ and 2) getting the MIROTIC album [maybe when i've saved up] cause it will be nice to add another to my collection. ;)
collection of CDs i mean. :P
_________________________________________
i feel guilty though - i havent seen jyn in ages and she wanted to lunch with me actually. :( and i havent taken any pics with hamie the last time we met up which is quite sad cause SHE HAD HER MAC WITH HER ! >:( i ought to slap myself. and i cant make it for jazzoo's sax performance next friday ! and and i havent seen shuan in ages during tuition too ! :( :( :(

am feeling ambitious today.
well the first week went by quite fast and it was part disaster, part wake up call to remind me how cruel reality is pertaining to the fact that, INDEED, academics and meritocracy is highly regarded in sunny island here. and the second week zoomed by quite fast too.
SHIT - WHY HAVENT I GOTTEN MY HANDBOOK YET ?!? >:( [must rmb to remind mrs wee abt it.]
ah, which leads me to my first topic: now that i have only 5 subjects to study for [OF WHICH NONE OF THEM ARE EASY PEASY/CHICKEN FEET], i only have 5 teachers and - 2 of them did not change >>> econs is still the mad hatter who is rather humourous, yet on the edge of heavy sarcasm. chem was SUPPOSEDLY going to change but apparently its sme big lie - MATH teacher got changed instead to this very pretty, VERY TALL, kinda SKINNY female teacher named ms ong. our bio teacher is MS WONG [not me since i suck at it] who has abt the same teaching experience as mr marcus chan >>> only we all agree that HE IS A MUCH BETTER TEACHER ! :(
:D so i have 4 female teachers and only one male teacher. i think this year would be a "GOOD TEACHERS" year. ;)
all my MSAs are over except for econs which im most likely going to mug for since its only on one topic. GAMBARIMASU ! :O i failed bio [TERRIBLY IS NOT EVEN THE APPROPRIATE WORD] and passed math [BARELY] and maybe will get some meagre grade for chem. im certain my compo will do badly cause i didnt understand what i was writing and compre - GAH ! i was hoping it would save me but i did not complete one very important part of the question.
overall = BAD. :(
cca is becoming a chore since i want to make changes to the system but the teacher is too rigid and too in control for me to put in my two cents worth. not that i even think that she regards it at all, but i want to try. i mean - im a student leader for some reason right ? welfare of others, leading others, responsibility ? [...] it sounds so surreal DAMN IT. :( :( :(
sometimes she can be so particular over nitty gritty details which i suppose i need to handle and should not complain/whine/make a big fuss about. but simple things that we are most likely able to do by ourselves can be turned into an uphill task by her. ARGH.
SHE RLLY DRIVES ME UP THE WALL ! >:(
endure endure endure.

1. BOUGHT THEM TICKETS FOR 5/3/09 !!!!! :D
well, technically not me [HOHOHO HAMIE !!! :P ] and BOY ! I HAVENT SAID THIS IN SUCH A LONG TIME ALREADY ! :D i thought i lost all my memories of moshpits and music gigs and blahblahblah but i guess im regaining my memory. alot of things excite me abt this particular GIG.
this gig that i saved up for. this gig that i have been waiting for. this gig by my fave musician in the UNIVERSE. this gig that has tickets that sell like hotcakes. this gig that i almost couldnt go to because of some bloody online booking system that baffles ordinary common folk like us.
anws - i am very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very HAPPY. :D
section PA ROW 11 HELLO MRAZ. ;)

2. ILJIMAE
my channel U korean drama ended alr and the ending sucks cause if the lead died then it would be so much better. the king should also have died cause he deserved to and he almost seemed a little like Macbeth [hallucinations, paranoia, distrust, etc.] because of similar symptoms when high status men commit heinous crimes. but i still like the show; even my brother likes it too. ;)
it may seem that im violent and sadistic but smetimes a successful ending can be bad/sad because then it would just go to show that there aren't happy endings in reality and i like being realistic. :P

3. ponyo [on the cliff, by the sea]
watched it on 20th jan with darling lollipop girl/Jose, mrs yaotome and myself. gen couldn't make it cause her BF was sick again ! :( kind of sad cause i think gen wanted to watch it too. i thought the movie was nice cause its all very FANTASY-ish and heart-warming and the animation is similar to that of "spirited away" [which i havent watched] and "HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE" [which i absolutely loved and hikaru-san lent the jap version to me to watch]. its by the production company called Studio Ghibli. ;)
storyline>>> small little fish princess escapes from the sea, gets caught by a little boy who showers love and care on her. the fish princess yearns to be a human so as to be with the little boy. rach-san was right; it's kinda like the jap remake of "the little mermaid" only i think this one is quite special and has its unique points. ;) STRONGLY ENCOURAGE.
i want to watch "milk" and "rachel getting married" but i dont meet the age limit thngy. :( and there are many movies i havent watched yet but i have no time to do so. :( :( :( :( :(

4. NO TIME.
exactly like what one teacher said. GAH - THIS SUCKS. >:(

5. CNY celebrations
as usual, we had a concert but this year we have this homerm deco thngy. i thought it was quite fun, considering how we improvised the plan pretty quickly. i like the exterior of our classrm more though. the door has been turned into a cow's mouth. :P and guess what ? we actually won the 2nd prize for best deco class ! :D [tidbits again (-.-") ] it must have been the clever idea of trading our chips. thats how we got that many votes. :P
some guy frm guitar ensemb sang "i'm yours". ARGH. i dont want to keep hearing it leh. and he kept forgetting his lyrics and stumbling over his lines. i thought them lyrics are quite easy to remember ? but he has an okay voice and he can play the guitar so he is by far better than me in terms of overall star quality HAHA. :P and hearing the band play their pieces makes me regret not joining SA band. :( i may not have been the best percussionist but i wouldnt give up on trying and working hard.
I WONT GIVE UP BEING A PERCUSSIONIST. :)
6. shopping
very productive day today and i think i got some gd and cheap buys which makes me feel even better. but im always worrying abt quantity and cost cause i feel guilty spending. so i shortened today's shopping time. :P i think far east rlly has some gd deals. OH YEAH ! the hair salon that i used to go to when i was a kid and when far east wasnt renovated yet is still thr ! :D some things dont change, i suppose. ;)
my mum met her sec sch friend who was with this angmoh/USA guy WHO TOWERED OVER ME and was very friendly. he shook my hand, said "ni hao" to me and asked me if i started receiving them red envelopes yet. i was too shy and embarassed to say anything so i just kept quiet and smiled and shook/nodded my head. (-.-")
apparently he has 3 daughters and they all waer at least SIZE TEN shoes. and they are just slightly shorter than him which is about 6 feet plus which is MOST PROBABLY ABOVE 1.75M or smtg. like we all dunno that them europeans are like trees. :O when we said goodbye, he said "gong hei fa choy" [or GONG XI FA CAI in cantonese] to me and advised me to shop less so that my parents can put more money in my ang pow. :P
I LIKE HIM ! HE IS SO NICE AND FRIENDLY ! :D it makes me happy.
ok i need my bed now.
PS: toolazytodocolourtoday. go doityourself.

"LIES" on replay like madness on my iPod ! and then when it comes to the rap part, i do the finger-twirl that T.O.P (rapper in BB) is super famous for. :O i swear this song is not only infectious, it literally can get you HOOKED. reels you in and hypnotizes you to just start dancing. >>> at first it's just your head bopping, next thing you know - YOU'RE DANCING. :O gahhhhh. :X
you will see it in this one where they sing live. :) them korean female fans are arlly scary bunch. they know all the lyrics to the songs and they scream all the time and they wave the lightsticks rlly hard and they - OMY. (-.-") to me its all pretty freaky. you wouldnt want to get on the wrong side of a bunch of screaming fangirls. the key word is GIRLS. =/
yeah MAHN. :P
and here's another when T.O.P is not with them and BB are on some radio show. you see them other members doing the finger thingy which im starting to get addicted to. the guys are pretty much a bunch of jokers rlly. x)

BIG BANG ! :D
okayyy i am seriously thinking that koreans are wayyy hotter and wayyy cooler than japanese guys. hence the idea for our escapade to NIHON after the "big-thng-at-the-end-of-this-year" rlly puzzles me. =/
__________________________________________
band name: BIG BANG ! :D [OH HOW MUSICIANS ARE SO CREATIVE WITH NAMES LATELY HAHAHA; c'mon lets applaud them for it ! (-.-") ]
members [L-R]: Seung Ri, Tae Yang (i like this one :P HAHA), T.O.P, G-Dragon and Dae Sung.
IM SO SORRY BUT I LOVE YOU. ;) [Lies]
this song is like on constant replay on thy iPod currently. damn its catchy! lately i've been listening to lots and lots of songs that are highly addictive to my ears; EARWORMS, thats what they call them. they stay in your head and just stick there like (using a closer to home example) - gum stuck at the side of a chair.
not like we can chew any here. :(
other songs i recommend would be "always" and "haru haru/day by day". and as for addictive song: hot 'n cold by katy perry (oh she's no mre with GCH's travis ! :( ) and estelle [ft. kanye west] american boy and FLOBOT'S HANDLEBARS !
:D flobots! i like the name. it sounds better than linkin park anws. :P
i just saw my timetable [shld be it alr] and im not sure whether to be happy or not. PE is frm 4-5 which is not rlly my ideal time. at least we only perspire when its the end of the day, i guess ? =/ sufficient breaks but im quite worried that i cant cope.
actually its failing MSAs, then coping.
ARGH.
you primary sch kids shld be grateful !

HAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
AHA.:P
[thought you might as well know that the chorus means this: you want me, you've fallen for me, you're crazy for me (!!!), i've got YOUUUUUUUUU under my skinnn. you want me you've fallen for me you're crazy for me you are my slave - I GOT YOUUU UUU UUU, UNDER MY SKIN.]
(-.-) tell me that this is quite the abnormality.
_________________________________________
i am suddenly swept with a SUDDEN impulse to go to the ting tings gig very very very very very much ! alamak, how do i explain this feeling to see some duo that my concert-going cousin thinks its not worth raving about [he says its crap, wth !] ? or that it is the second day of school which probably requires me in bed early instead of some unearthly hours after a round of moshing? or my random-ness that cannot rescue meee ???
>:( im having a major brain cells breakdown.
ARGH ARGH ARGH ARGH ARGH ARGH ARGH !!! !!! !!!
quote of the day: i wish i could say that "until i've mastered the guitar [frets and chords and all], i shall live in recluse, never see the light of day, sever all contact with homosapiens living in this current society and shall die a horrible death." unfortunately, this will not happen due to the lack of fairness in this world that we reside in; quite unlikely for such miracles to happen EH ?
(otherwise interpreted as): DAMN IT.

sniotulos.
i like this vid. ;)
many ppl have commented that the concept is not purely for entertainment, but there is actually an underlying motive - some philly idea, i suspect.
A) you thought bunnies were scary, wait til you get to know HUMANS. :P
B) everybody has their random BUNNY days.
C) it's not easy to be a bunny.

lately i've been listening to quite abit of chinese music. mainly those not so popular/mainstream in taiwan like Cheer Chen, Crowd Lu, Khalil Fong and Sodagreen. my fave being Chen because i love her voice and her music. [sidenote: DAMN I CANT PUT CHINESE WORDS ON BLOGGER ?!? :( ] so here's a preview. :D
one of my faves. only problem is i dunno where to download her songs. :( i've been trying and googling them websites to find a suitable one. :( but to no avail; gosh i cant believe im failing. :( and i think smtg's wrong with me cause when i go to the chinese websites to download them songs i get a headache - i think it's due to the chinese characters cause they are so small and tiny and like ants and EVERYWHERE.
argh. :(
so im not sure whether its due to my laziness that i dont DL them songs or its cause i get migraines from doing it. =/ now all i can do is to replay them songs on youtube which can get very fustrating. i hope someone can help me on this. =)
now i've gotta go cause i have quite a few missions to complete.
BYE.
ps: here's another thought-provoking vid.
pss: okayyy, im just lying. this is just for viewing pleasure. :P

nanananananananananananana.
yucks. i thought the countdown for last year would be more exciting but not really. i mean - I THOUGHT MRAZ WAS GONNA MAKE IT TO TOP TEN FOR THE "YOU KNOW WHAT" SONG. :( such disappointment.
anws, the ting tings have 2 songs on the countdown ! :D YAY i love them, although those 2 songs are rather far apart (#12 and #74). Mraz has 2 too, PARAMORE HAS THREE - YAY YAY YAY, way to go ! :P otherwise, some special mentions would be relient k making it [one song only but who cares ! ;) ] and panic and melee and boys like girls and the script and sara b and jamie scott [WOW, i didnt expect it] and keane with SPIRALLING ! the groovy song ! :D :D :D they are at #100 for that one. :P
maroon 5 has only one measly song in the list at #91 - wont go home wout you. ARGH. :(
nth much except i might do a invitation list for artists in yr '09.
in continuation, since im lazy to do another separate post, i shall say something logical and philly regarding last year. this is also known as REFLECTIONS.
last year was a good and bad year for me. it was good because i had a lot of fun. it was bad because in the midst of having lots of fun, i neglected my studies which [apparently since im a student] is very important and vital in my quest for future success(es). therefore, i conclude that overall last year was a bad year.
