I'm quite dead for my e-portfolio. Hahaha. "If you choose to blog, I won't stop you, but I won't help you either." Guilt/emotional blackmail??
My advertisements oral stinks.
Stupid olly has no tests left lah.
And I gotta be mugging geog from today till friday. Yucks. Can't even enjoy the Teachers' Day hol.
My teacher has class. Isn't that so cute.
I'm only give 2 teachers presents.
Oh sheesh I realise mr ong reads my blog.
Correct that.
I'm only gonna give 5 teachers presents. Haha.
RGS teachers don't deserve it.
*looks up at ceiling :P
Yayy it's fun to be in camp comm.
Meetings are fun.
Praying about it all and trusting God to guide us through it is fun.
Preparing it is SO FUN!!!
Any church people who come my blog.
Wanna be in worship team??
NO. I'm supposed to ask the person not the person volunteer. Heh. Whoops.
The RI yearbook is quite nice. The cover I mean.
Vinna and I were looking for pri sch friends and laughing if they look funny.
Saw some of the bballers.
Anzhen's hair looked like a bird's nest. ATHENA DON'T KILL ME AND DON'T TELL HIM I SAID THAT.
Zheng feng looked so
round and fat and so olivia. [You know my friend actually said that he looks like you!!!]
Danny looked quite cute.
Couldn't find the rest of em.
Pretty amusing.
Ding dong ding dong.

champions.champions.champions.
champions.CHAMPIONS!!!It's a beautiful word isn't it.
The feeling's equally splendid.
The RAFFLES BBALL DREAM. We've lived it.
Everyone, team or non-team, contributed in one way or another, and each of our faces is reflected in one area of the shiny cup!
On top of that, sihui got MVP man. WOOHOO! Congrats capt'. Haha. raffles no.7 . Nice nice.
The stupid announcing girl from jurong DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO ANNOUNCE LAH PLEASE. She goes like,"The National Basketball C Division Girls' Most Valuable Player is no. 7 from Rgs."
No smile, no enthusiasm, no expression, no suspense, simply a monotonous statement. As though she doesn't feel like saying it. Don't feel like then DON'T SAY get someone better!
Bodo.
Like wow, it so excites us to find out who the MVP is like that lah!
Lol. Don't know why it affects me so much. Maybe it's the oral exam prac getting to me. Hahaha.
I feel sad for RI. They looked so disheartened themselves, after the game. But then, they were ok after that and taking yes, obscene photos!! GROSS! And we were all sitting and eating zi cha, and had to be disgusted by their ahem, hugging with additional stuff.
Think they fought real hard though. They were losing quite some at the last few minutes of the game, like by 12-15 points or sth. And they caught up real quickly till they lost by a mere 3. 64-67.
Fighting spirit!
Oh man.
So close to getting a double Raffles champion.
Danny fouled out in the 3rd quarter. Charging foul?! I've never seen one before. Maybe it only happens in guys' matches. Anzhen scored some nice 3-pointers. Danny's 3-pointers too. Zhengfeng, as usual, layed-up a lot. He runs fast. [haha olly tsk.]
They could have won. Yah duh. Nevermind.
Equatorial rainforests have 5 layers - emergent, canopy, understorey, shrub, ground. The canopy layer is dense and has a closed appearance, so it blocks sunlight from reaching the understorey, shrub and ground layers. Thus, non-parasitic plants like the liana and adapt by twining around the trunks of canopy trees to get maximum sunlight.
Wahaha I've read the textbook on forests and mangroves! Now to go compile the notes from handouts, tb and ppt, then continue to study deforestation: why deforest, problems, why conservation is difficult.
I love physical geog.
Upper sec geog will be on human geog. Oh no. How dry is that. Yikes. But still, I don't wanna be going to the science lab 3 times a day! Think why no one else in our class is taking geog is cos most of em take trip science, so they definitely choose lit :) Or some, history. Mine is cos I'm taking double. If I'd chosen trip science, I'll not take geog either! I MUST study lit no matter what. Not a single one of my 6 choices doesn't have lit in it. Eh, if there are 6 choices with lit in them lah. And I think my 4th choice is already trip humans!! I love humans.
Humanities.
Debrief yest'd was not bad. Sounds so conclusive indeed. I took my lit test before that. Finally, yes. It was ok. Wrote on the candle in the wind ballad. It's
so beautifully-written oh man. The title itself rocks. On princess diana's death. I hope I answered well. Wrote pretty long, to my surprise. 2 and 1/4 pages. The time extension helped, A LOT. 1 hour is like 50% more time! But still, it was so fast I didn't have time to think, just wrote crap till the end, whatever that came to my mind. Always the same for humans tests. Speed through. Wrote so much for question b. wrote on metaphor, simile, personification, run-on line, etc. but not exactly sure if it's correct. Sigh.
Dinner at swensen's. WHO CONVINCED ME TO PAY SO MUCH FOR THAT? Please, the food is worth $5 only. They specialise in ice-cream. Should have gone there for ice-cream instead. Money blown away! :((
HAPPY BIRTHDAY VINNA!Hope you enjoyed it.
How was your date/outing with
him??
Hahaha!! Don't kill me.
I bet you'll be too over-the-moon to do so anyway.

FINALS
RAFFLES. WOOHOO We're in!!!!!!!!
Jurong East here we come.
We're gonna da bai anderson YEAH!
Go team.
We can do it we can do it we can we can we can.With faith and fighting spirit and perseverance and determination we're gonna reach for the GOLD trophy!!!
Messed up quite a bit during the semis. But that's over. I wanna prove myself this last time.
-
olly: I believe in you:) So believe in yourself!Don't worry so much. You can do it :D PRAY!!!
I got, with the FANTASTIC help of vanessa, almost half the class [but actually, my maths is quite a failure...] coming down to support. Ahahaha. Thank you poo!!!
Missing chinese and science. CELEBRATE MAN.
Class 201.
It was pretty good. More fun than class 101 cos this one's about your SHAPE for ministry and I was always interested in that.
Actually, I'm quite sure what mine is already. But it was nice to have some confirmation there.
MUSIC!!!! Woohoo. Being a worship leader is fun. Plus the fact that I'm going for believer music now, yay!! Manda, hope you can come with me. Pray hard:)
Tuesdays 3.45 - 4.45 pm. Tanjong Pagar MRT. I pray Lord for provision of time and money:) I do it all for You alone!
1 more commitment. I feel better when I'm bisy, somehow. Though the stress kills me, I really prefer being out and about a lot. Miss french!! And piano! And I wanna learn guitar! And drums! Wait long long. Hahaha.
And the part about your personality test. Oh man, it was farni. Justin and I were together in the "outgoing and thinker" area. Meaning we're
driven people. didn't exactly get that haha. And for every type of personality, they actaully had a special song to represent you. And guess what mine was.
we are the championswe are the championsno time for losers1st thought that came to me?
Finals. duh.
HAhahahaha.
Mr ong is quite a poet. And a good one I emphasise. Just read his blog.
But you could consider a change in layout? Haha.
Talking about layouts, this is one of the very few times I have kept a layout for such a long time. Wasn't pleased with the many before. But this one's NICE. Yayy. The orange!! That guy shooting! The black background!
I think as long as it's bball it's gonna stay for a long time.
The date thursday in my organiser is filled with bball stuff like "raffles bball dream" and all, and vinna was saying "think a bit far off eh?" LOL NO!!
The com studs room is freezing my bones. My hands are so numb I can't type properly.
Did a survey by claass 201 [haha, no, not the church one!] on blogging. And it made me realise that actually, I don't really know why I blog. Convenient? Like, can multi-task. I still prefer diaries, but somehow blogging is easier and faster. But diaries have so much more value!! And they're so much more personal You can express everything in there with no worries, no hindrances, no fears. [power of 3!! woots. Applying past knowledge to new experiences. Wow, congratulate me for knowing my habits of mind *grins].
Reminder to self:
-sign up to support bball for friends
-study history
-study geog and do forests WS
-annotate lit
Sang a new song on Sunday "blessed be Your name". It's a bit the long yes, but really nice. Like the tune! And the lyrics are not bad too.
I wanna compose more songs. Well actually, compose the lyrics and someone make the tune for me haha:) "My source of everything" still lacks a tune! Any volunteers?
Jurong East yay yay yayy!!
live the dream. leave a legacy.

The defeat thing may be kinda long ago haha, budden well. I'm writing about our whole journey.
I never knew what it feels like to fail someone else's expectations. I'm used to failing my own, but no, it's harder when it's someone else. Yes it's an insignificant person but still. It's hard.

FAILUREPlease don't say it's ok, cos it's NOT. It's
anything but ok.
Doesn't studying work. DOESN'T IT. Then why does it choose not to for me?!
I wanna give up. Work so hard and it all goes down the drain in one whoosh.
IT'S DISAPPOINTING can't
you see.
Hate it.
-sorry mr ong btw. Pls don't ask me for my marks. It's
lousy beyond compare.Anderson match. Lost by 3 points. Zai joelynn saved some of it with her TWO 3-pointer chops. Woots baby, you rock. Nice ones! :D 33-36. Olivia your cousin is SCARY can. Defend her get pushed like siao. Haha. I'm like 1/2 her size!!! And I just got zhuang-ed here and there and everywhere. Eeyerh. ANd she gets ALL the rebounds. Like, she can even grab the ball from ABOVE your head. But there was one super nice one when sihui got the rebound with xiaohui behind her!!! SIHUI REBOUND! AND WON THE CENTRE!
haha whoops that was mean.
And olly and her fat boy [ri no. 9] were FLIRTING SHAMELESSLY in kfc lah. TSK olly! No denying. HAha aiyo you. don't make it so obvious mah...:P
Okok. OLLY IS NICE PERSON. She was so nice to wait for me in McDonald's after the match cos I was
enjoying my delicious meal. Thanks girl! :)
I've got 3 tests next week, cos I postponed lit and maths. Taking maths as a team!!! So cool.
Maybe I shouldn't mug huh.
STUDY SMART NOT STUDY HARD. Oh, could anyone teach me that??
And once again I remind you kuzzin, BBALLERS ARE NOT GANG-ISH. We're a super nice team of wonderful people. RIGHT bballers?? Tag if you agree:P
Semi -finals here we come! And we won't stop there:D
Jiayou raffles.
-andrea, thanks for the great encouragement! You all did superb too:) Really.

Nanyang match.
WE WON!!! WOOHOO!! 34-45! Nice number eh.
Yay raffles. Splendid job done.
Good defence, more aggressive than usual, didn't slack during the 1st 2 quarters, basically great defence that saved us from their catching up.
I fouled 4 times. Sheesh lah, what's with me and fouling 4 times both times I played nanyang. That time in aljunied cup they made me foul 4 times too!! Chased to the bench. Haha.
And worst still, they made me foul and didn't foul me. Ack. When I tried shooting somehow they didn't touch me or what. Eeyerh.
Athena, sorry if I like ruined the whole image of your face with that big smack. Haha. You elbowed my chin too! We too rough huh. Explains our fouls. :)
Yayy in to the semi-finals we go!
There was one time they caught up till they were just 2 points behind. My gosh, that was like CRUCIAL CRUCIAL moment. Then athena layed-up beautifully and we pulled the lead once again. PHEW. Hahaha.
Last match for this round on Thursday, Anderson. JIAYOU!
Somebody bugging me to go now.
see you later alligatorin a while crocodilesee you sometime mr sunshinesee you soon mr moon!--credits to nata:)
PSL interview stank.
Boo I dunno how I'm gonna get in.
16 August 2005
7:37 AM
Yest'd match against nan chiau. It was pretty good as a team, though we do need to be more aggressive eg. blockout and go all the way when shooting or laying-up, and reduce turnovers.
Yayy guess I played better than the bedok north one which I badly messed.
Joanne, well done girl! Haha. I won't slap your butt don't worry:)
AGGRESSIVE. Ooh nanyang. And anderson. But we overcome one obstacle first then another.
JIAYOU TEAM!!! :)) Blockout, rebound, SHOOT! Ddraw the foul. Yay!
Gee I'm pretty nervous about psl interview. How much chance is there that I can get in? 50 outta the 250? that applied. You really gotta stand out huh.
Hillsong music! Visiting the website. It's so filled with animation and stuff. Kinda distracting, but makes the whole site super lively and bright!
Did mr ong acknowledge himself as pinky? Or was it some impersonator. Mr ang? Hahaha.
E portfolio. HUMM. whoops eh. I haven't listened a
single com studs leson. Congrats to me.
No one's taking my combi!!! I'm gonna be in some mixed-up class. May end up with becky who's taking chem bio hist lit. Yup, quite likely :D Other than that, I reall yhave no idea who I'm gonna be with. No bballers nope. So sad. We were saying we should all take the same combi and be in the same class as a team! Woots.
Did I mention that marche rocked. Woohoo, it was shiok. Ate till I couldn't even take dinner at night. And bewitched isn't bad. Thank you birthday girl!! So sweet.
YAYY I'm camp worship leader with yvonne! So cool. Looking forward to december already haha. And they postponed the mission trip [I heard.] So during the hols I'll be off to kl for bball exchange, melaka [is it?!] for church camp, thailand for mission trip. YEEHA.
I think camp's gonna be so super fun.8excitement bubbles in my stomach. A bit far off huh. Haha.
MATCH AGAINST NANYANG.
GO FOR IT.
WE ARE CHAMPIONS!!
live the dream. leave a legacy.SO cool.

Watched charlie and the choc fac today.
IT'S SO CUTE!!! KEEYUTE!
Oh man I love the oompa loompas they're so small and cute! And the songs are so much nicer heard than read. Last time whenever a song was written in the book, I felt like skipping the pages.
Ahaha. Childhood memories. The chocolate factory is SO NICE I wish it were real!! If only our wildest imaginations could be turned into reality huh. Lol.
Johnny Depp can act, oh man. usually see him in those action shows and it's so different here in this movie! Haha NONO SIHUI NO. DON'T START. I think his hair's so funkeh!! HAHAHA. Eccentric huh. But I don't exactly like the ending. Quite weird. Like they purposely had to fit some moral value for what-educational purposes-into the movie?!
Athena and alina are so nice too. Haha SEE THAT. They're treating bballers to marche and a movie on wednesday to celebrate their birthdays!! So cool. yayy. Thankew!
I miss fop. Freak.I can cry cos I missed it yesterday. And everyone asked why I wasn't there, told me it was so
super nice, so tremendously enjoyable cos it was the finale.AND I WASN'T THERE TO JOIN THEIR ENJOYMENT.
I hate the chinese pt. I have a grudge on Chinese all the more now.[take that, charmaine. Even though I don't think you even ccome to my blog.]
I HATE CHINESE
I LOVE GOD
I LOVE FOP
And today in school I was suffering from the aftermath of FOP and maybe sonicfest. I was like jump, jump, jump, scream!!! Sing!!
I'm gonna be a history-maker in this land.Oh yes I was high in church yest'd too. Scared a load of people. Like daniel. Haha he was like "erh!". And eve went,"What FOP does to people..."
I miss it so much!
And I was also wondering about the way we worship God these days...the charismatic kinds especially. And I came to the conclusion that we are all worshipping the same God, and it doesn't matter how we worship, for the main purpose is to
worship Him truly from you heart. And even if songs were rock or pop or hymns, it's still a form of worhsip to Him. Different people express their praise and thanksgiving differently, but cummon, it's still worshipping God.
I think woship is right just as long as we mean it from the bottom of our hearts, that we're really singing and praising the Lord.[feel free to argue]
Happy birthday Singapore. YAH RIGHT. Please, I don't exactly love my country you know. Of course, I agree that there're really great things here like prosperity, peace and harmony, cleanliness, schooling, etc. But on hind side [is it?] I still think there can be many more improvements made like development in the arts and sports instead of si3 du2 ke4 ben3 and don't know how to be creative. The world's greatest entrepeneurs succeeded not mainly because of IQ, but creativity, thinking outta the box, and street-smartness. They didn't exactly come form top schools like Harvard or Oxford did they. Humble beginnings that still led to achievements in life. Boy, do we lack that.
I think I love to debate.
I'm gonna be a history-maker in this landI'm gonna be a speaker of truth to all mankindI'm gonna standI'm gonna runInto Your armsInto Your armsAgainToday's training was quite slack. In fact, very. Shot around, learnt to block-out properly, free throws, and then we played matches. And after training we played a super amusing game of free throws. jamie, yen lin, si hui, olly, becky, claire, mr ong, mr ang and I. Stupid sihui had to start the AHEM distractions!! I still managed to get 3 of em in :) haha even with your AHEM noise!
Was quite disappointed in my performance today. Still, my determination lives on:)
Good night. Been sleeping at 1+ the past few days and waking up at 7+. Smart huh. Droopy eyelids..

10:33 PM
I'M HIGH ON DRUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I TOOK ECSTASY. hahaha
I LOVE FESTIVAL OF PRAISE.
so i look to you!
tell the world that jesus lives!
GOD, I LOVE YOU!!
Festival of Praise was an
awesome experience. It was just
ALL-OUT worship, no holding back, no hiding, no shunning. Just giving it all away, giving it all away to the Lord Jesus.
all i need is You Lord, is You Lord, all i need is YouAnd it was one of the rare [yes, sadly] occasions I really
felt and
met God, and felt His Holy Spirit come upon me. I just felt His warm,
loving hands touch me and take away all the pain, hurt and sadness I'd been keeping, and I released it all to Him. He made me cry in sadness and happiness at the same time, deep sadness as I looked and realised all that I'd been keeping from Him, extreme happiness as I finally let it out.
HOW CAN I EVER THANK YOU ENOUGH?Cliché, yes, but I mean it. What did I even do to deserve all the great, sacrificial love the Lord has given, and will always give, me?
And I just wanted to sing of Your love forever. Nothing could express my immense thankfulness as I realised truly how ALMIGHTY God is, how majestic He is, yet He treats us as His sons and daughters, each and every one of us precious in His sight. Lifting my hands was not enough, singing my heart out was not enough. But it was all I could give, and that's what I gave.
I thank You with all of my heart, Lord. I THANK YOU.
Who on earth could offer us such powerful and amazing love?
Who else stays behind us to catch us from a fall when all the world walks out?
Who else would shine a light so bright to bring us out of darkness?
Who else could take away all our pain?
Who else has extraordinary hands to do the impossible?
No one but You, Lord. No one, but You alone.
Majesty Majesty
You grace has found me just as I am
Empty-handed but alive in Your hands
We seek Majesty Majesty
Forever I am changed by Your love
In the beauty of Your Majesty
There is nothing like Your love.
The songs we sang at festival of praise were simply meaningful and extremely touching. Hillsong + Delirious. A good combination of both ultra lively songs and the more soulful, reflective ones. I love both, they've got sorta different purposes. And even though last lines were repeated non-stop before the song ended, there was meaning in them. And I just sang and sang and sang to God above.
On top of meeting God and having a close encounter with Him, I had a superb time of fellowship with many friends:). Friday I went with bballers olly, sihui, nata, athena. Saturday, whoa, big crowd sia. vinna, rowena, debbie, olly, sihui, eve, ethel, amadea, david [eve's kanchiong], john. Sadly we were separated cos my diff groups of friends were sitting in different areas. In the end I sat in the little corner [same as friday] with olly, sihui and john with vinna, ro, and debbie in front. Sorry again to eve and ethel that I abandoned you kuzzins! *smiles.
I've got a lot of people to thank.
1. ROWENA - THANK YOU
really like siao, for lending me your com like nothing today. Know it was SUPER MA FAN and I really owe you big time man. Really sorry as well! I think you'll probably not sleep tonight all thanks to me. SORRY :(
2. SIHUI - thank you so so so so much for the lift home! I got no face to show you liao, thanks for the kindness! And of course, Your father as well!
3. OLLY - thanks for reserving those seats for me [and my friends], even though it was really tough to fight off the ushers!
4. VINNA - thanks for coming no matter what. Know it was chao hard to face your mum, but I'm so glad you still came!
5. EVE and ETHEL - for offering 4 seats to my friends and me, then we didn't need them. Thanks also for fighting off that usher! Haha tsk:)
6. MELTEE - woohooo it's just great that someone else knows. Thanks for telling me all about it, at least it makes it feel less weird. Didn't think you knew more than the surface...
I miss festival of praise. Already.
I DIDN'T GET TO GO TODAY!!!! :((((( And because I didn't go, 3 people who've never gone before didn't go either. AARGH. All the pt's fault. And the com's fault. Of course mine as well. Charmaine, shermaine and justin could have gone! Irritating.
I have a puppydog. *wurfwurf!
Olly is REALLY LAME. First jack then john. What the toot you pokk! BETRAYER. I know you know, but you act like you don't. *strangles
I am gonna make our church worship better when I become a worship leader! Haha. That is a long way to come. But I will try! :)
-take me deeper.
Charlie and the chocolate factory here I come!!

Match against Yisjun Town was pretty ok. MY REBOUNDS STUNK mainly. Just didn't zhua wen the ball, and every time I tried to shoot I got blocked. Uurgh, irritating. But I managed to do one pose-up then go in and scored 1. And, AND! I scored 3 outta 4 free throws!!!!
YAYY:D:D:D:D
Mr ong said remember the good things and repeat them, forget the bad things as long as you learn to correct them. Haha see, I remembered the nice ones. LOL.
Well in terms of what to improve:
BLOCK-OUT AND REBOUND. And GO UP QUICKLY after rebounding, don't need to take so long to look for the basket. Call for the ball more. Still too passive. And attempt to take shots MORE!! If you wanna make that shot, you GOTTA take that shot. Yupyup.After the match we all went to Mac's. I have a craving for McSpicy double!! Just ate it 2 days ago and ate it again today. The stupid cashier didn't allow me to change fries to twister fries. BOO.
Yes, olllyy, you can do it! And so can I :)
Blogged so much this week. Man. I feel so slack. I mean, I just came back and came straight to the com! I never do that. This is like the 1st time in the year..well I do need some relaxation, don't I???!!! yes, I'm gonna watch the past 2 weeks'
one tree hill and
the oc.FESTIVAL OF PRAISE TOMORROW!!! WOOHOO!Nice nice mr ang [ha. yeah. right.] agreed to let us off at 5.30!! Bathe, have dinner, go queue. Man, the queue will be like 1km long by that time lah. But good enough we get to go off early lah:)
Seen the sonicfest web already.
www.sonicfest.net There're many pics there.
Vin, ro, ky, joy and I are watching Charlie and the choc factory on Monday after celebrations!! Yayy:)) My SECOND movie this year! Finally break my promise to myself of not watchin. This is one show I can't miss! And then I have training at 3. We were thinking of having it earlier, but it'll be KILLER WEATHER. And we're gonna be doing pt. OH NO.
No training on Wednesday though. But maybe I'll train a bit extra myself.
We have a match against Bedok North on Thursday. 3.45 pm. The last match of the day! Eew. So late. Si Hui may be ponning. Feel like too. After a long day of chao SIAN and tiring lessons, I'll be too tired to play properly. Haha well.

11:28 AM
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I JUST FINISHED BIO EOI!!
i am so happy!!! (:
that was by my friend. haha.
I can't believe it. I'm DONE. woots. WOOTS! It was actually ok. I think. I mean, better than I expected. All the stress simply killed me. But it's done! YAYY.
Oh yes I didn't tell you how
loser I was to see the wrong time-table. I had to take bio today after all!!! And yest'd the whole day was spent mugging like siao. Cramming's bad, doesn't work for me.
Anyway, it's over. And I'm not gonna dwell on it. All I'll say is that it was pretty much QUITE simple. Yeah, olllyy, yen, nata, JIAYOU!
Finally decided on my subject combi. After many days of pondering. The main question was whether to take trip science lit, or lit geog chem bio. And I'm taking the latter!
Aiming for the media industry, not the kinda sciencey stuff. Nope, no doctor, lawyer, scientist and engineer thingies.
HOORAY 2 down, 1 to go. Oh yes, must not forget the maths and geog ones either. But those are far off anyway. More far off. Left with Chinese indiv.
I DIDN'T BRING JERSEY SHORTSI'M A LOSERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRWanna hear my
long story of how it got left in the car this morn?
Here goes.
I was with my mom, and was taking it out to transfer it to the shoe bag from my school bag. Left it on top of something [in the dark, can't see]. Then thought my mom was helping me put it into the shoe bag, but apparently she didn't. So, after she got out of the car, I went to sleep. And when I reached school and got off, I prob left it behind somewhere in the car. But thought I didn't see anything in there when I closed the door. Anyway, maybe I dropped it when getting out. But i went to check and couldn't find it.
So now. I'm stuck with a senior jersey shorts that's green and
black. OH NO WHAT IF I CAN'T PLAY. Too bad.
ok byee.

I'M DONE WITH CHINESE PT!!!!!!!!!!
WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
This rocks babeh!
:D
Oh I'm really sorry ping fang, about all my ALL SO LOW commitment level, cos of many reasons [NOT excuses!!] :(( Bball being very important, almost as impt as studies.
First a student, then a basketballer. Sheesh I'm so sorry ping fang!
Anyway, we have to sort out the speeches properly, and try to reduce the ppt. Is that it?
Next. Indiv and bio EOI. Oh man, I PRAY I'm taking it next week. I think God's great! Prayer worked. Marvellously. Like, I got comp on Thur, so can't take EOI. And that means probably next week, cos I can't take it tomorrow [she better not make me, I'll cry], and next Monday is national day celebrations [I can take after that, but 204 has a girl taking on Thursday, so I also want that!], and Tuesday and Wednesday are National Day hols. Yay, I really hope it's Thursday.
Oh yes yes, new town won NANYANG not SC. Sorry, they're seriously stuck in my head that's why.
And we won Jurong today. But not exactly a good win. Their coach is sooooo sportmanship
pish! Oh man! He said we played "marvellously", hahaha.
It was all because of a stupid mistakeThat now it's all stuck in my headThe great impact of just one lineNow I can't get you off my mindI actually composed that in the bath. Wow. Haha, I never fail to impress myself. Grins. Just like olly's english never SEIZES TO ASTOUND NATA! What the crap. So the qim.
Indiv
Bio
Oh man like jiayou me. Seriously jiayou. I'm so dead. Prob gonna get 1 3.5 gpa. EEKS.
7:35 AM
I never NOT type about school work and rant and grumble on and on about the piling homeworkk to complete right. I think people like mr ang get tired of reading my daily verbal diarrhoea. Ahaha. It's called the life of a chao stressed poor girl LOL!
Yesterday's training was super slack. Cos we hadta have enough rest and rejuvenate all our energy for today' match and the thursday match. All we did was normal warm up, stretching, then practised some rolling with 1 centre on top, lastly learn how to po 2 3 zu zhi [jurong's gonna use it].
"My job is to go see all the teams and plan ahead our strategies, and your jobs are all to go play the game." Haha. Well. And our job's to win too! :)
Training ended at like 6. So early! Then we shot around and practised whatever we wanted [we were dismissed already], and then mr ang, olly, alina and I played abcd. Oh my gosh. I AM SHI BAI AT FREE THROWS. Trained a lot for it liao, and every time I shoot during training I can chop pretty ok, and even get 100% sometimes....but when it comes to a real match I always miss!!! And duh, you say it's cos of the pressure, but seriously NOT. I don't really feel pressurised when I step in front of the free throw line. Really. And I can feel I'm concentrating on the shot, but I still MISS!!!! The kind of hit the rim, hit the back of the rim, spin out of the net...shots.
Mr Ang was like chop, chop, chop. Chop somemore. We curse him and he continues to chop. Our sneezes are echoed by the sound of the net swishing. Our coughs are drowned by the ball thumping on the ground right below the net. Haha.
Wow..
The free throw routine thingy we did on Friday was very helpful. For the 1st time I got 2 shots in consec, twice!! Woots. Haha. That's why I say that I don't exactly feel pressurised when shooting free throws. Yet, yesterday when we were playing abcd I missed practically ALL my free throws.
Like, ACK.
Oh mr ang says I have to be more
active during matches, like learn to read the game and predict the next move.
I couldn't agree more. Somehow I think I really seldom call for the ball. I don't! WHY? :(
Anyway, today we're up against Jurong. Not dure how good they are and we never know until we play. I get to leave school at like 9.45 WOOTS! We were contemplating not coming to school at all ahaha. Oh New Town beat SC!! Like, what. Anything can happen -nods. Jiayou man!!
I haven't called Mrs Fahy regarding bio eoi! SHEESH. That might just spell a terrible death for me.
I got my new jerseys!!!! YEEHA! :DDDDD *Grins madly like a mad cheshire cat. Yay BBALLERS: I'M OFFICIALLY
CHERYL. C-H-E-R-
Y-L. YUP! CHERLY NO MORE!!! Woohoo. Actually, after seeing so much of the cherly, I got so used to it I thinkl my jerse looks funny now. Haha. But NO, that doesn't give you the permission to call me cherly!! :)
Mr Ang was like "kan ta zhe me gao xing." Dots. DUH, hey, my name is a nice one that doesn't deserve to be ruined haha.
You freaked me out. You ruined my day. Now I can't seem to run away.I'm scared about later. Oh nonono. We must be mentally strong 1st of all!
YAY we're going to Festival of Praise, the whole bball team woots! Ok, minus the FEW non-Christians. And even mr ong and maybe mr ang and mrs lim are going as well. See, my convincing powers rock. I got athena and olly and can't remember who else to go. Charmaine and Vinna and Ro. YEEHA. Oh but there's a problem. Who should I go with on saturday?
1. bballers 2. ro and vin 3. charmaine 4. eve + all the church people
No Planet Shakers!!! BOOOOOO. How sad is that. Gotta wait till next year to see them live. Well, till then I got the cd's and anyway Hillsong is about the same lah hor.
In the secret In the quiet placeIn the stillness You are thereIn the secret In the quiet hour I waitOnly for YouCause I want to know You moreI want to know YouI want to hear Your voiceI want to know You moreI want to touch youI want to see Your faceI want to know You moreI am reaching for the highest goalThat I might receive the pricePressing onward Pushing every hindrance asideOut of my wayCos I want to know You moreI want to know You
I want to hear Your voice
I want to know You more
I want to touch you
I want to see Your face
I want to know You moreRUNNING AFTER YOUI don't care what people will sayI'm running after YouI won't turn back and go awayI'm running after YouDon't matter what may come my wayI'm running after YouIt' You I'm following todayI'm running after You!!!If only our church was more charismatic. Not that they aren't, they're just not THAT charismatic. No life. No fun. No true enjoyment in getting to know thr Lord and expressing it through songs. And no one ever raises his hand or jumps or whatever. Except the adults. How sad, it's supposed to be the
youths who are
youthful!!
You freaked me out. You ruined my day. Now I can't seem to run away.I wanna wash you out.
Com studs is gonna end soon. Haven't done anything besides blog. Hahaha.
