Cb major - life is full of complecations,
commitments and organisation. You love to make
sure everything is just perfect, but sometimes
this can cause you to fall over your own feet.
A slightly unsociable key: why Cb major when
you could be the identical Bmajor? It has less
accidentals.
what key signature are you?

Met up with Suzanne, Huiyu, Christina.
Loving la-mian at Crystal Jade (yes again!) and their xiao long baos!
After which we headed to the Mango sale with woah-so-many-people, walked all the way down to PS, and thank you HY for the wonderful ice-cream treat!
Ladies and gentlemen, behold item no. 256 on Cartel's Menu : Viking on the Rock
Everybody go "mmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!" with me now.
I've got a billion and one things to do before I head off to camp again, its gonna be another busy weekend. Been feeling very pressurised lately due to time management, and having to do lots of compromising. *sigh* We've got lots of understanding to do.

0900 Up and awake!
0930 Polish ball. Nice clean and shiny. Just too bad its a little old. *sniff*
1015 Headed for Tampines Bus Interchange.
1045 Tmd. Where's the bloody bus driver?
1050 Finally set off.
1130 Bowling alley. Warm up. Attempt to take up my blisters to protect them from further damage.
Bowling was good. In fact, I was just a little rusty, but its good to be back under Michael again. :)
1500 Back home and nua.
1700 Restless. Ready to go for a run.
Oww. The first 200m was hell with the sensation in my aching right butt cheek. But the rest were quite shiok. Haven't pushed myself physically for a long long time. Frankly, I miss those training days. Miss training with the team.
My mum's pissing me off again, she's like still living in her own lala-land when I have already told her I'll be off to different camps for the next two weeks. She's appalled that NUS Sports Camp will last 6 days 5 nights, horrified that its a stay-in camp, and I bet she almost fainted when I tell her I have another camp job following that 6 days 5 nights Sports Camp. Hah. Then she comes and tell me "You're getting very wild, don't like to stay at home already eh? Wild wild girl, no heart for your family members, don't like to see your family right?"
Excuuuuusseeeee me mum. Quit that.
I sometimes wonder whether I should go for counselling with my mum. I think I need the professional middle-person to convey my exact thoughts and feelings to her. Maybe it will work out better.

Went bowling today! *grin*
5 blisters on my hand, but its soooo worth it.
Turned out that my technique is still there, just that I lacked the stamina and the muscle memory. In fact, cleared off one of my bad habits.
Coach was there for a league, lucky me. Good to have someone watching me from behind to correct my mistakes. So assuring.
Well. Discovered Scholl's Blister Treatment Spray to treat my blisters, its so super effective, I'm like addicted to it. Its this spray that forms a cobweb-like layering on top of your blisters and acts as a protective covering.
Fun to spray on, cooling to the touch.
But I keep mis-aiming. So I have cobweb-like stuff all over my black keyboard.
*mumbles* Talk about lousy aiming. Hah.
That's about the highlight of the day I suppose.
Oh and when I went jogging this morning I saw this man walk 3 dogs, he left 2 of the younger/smaller dogs behind and continued walking on for 100m or so with the other dog. Those two just sat there with their ears perked up all ready to dash at the command. So cute! Too bad I didn't have my camera, those two would have made such a nice picture. Awww.
And run they did, at the command. Very well trained.

Nothing tastes better than a cup of hot chocolate at night.
Just like how I am enjoying my cup of hot chocolate. Oooooooh laa laaa.
Man. I've never been so irritated in my entire life today.
Some TJ seniors are apparently block-heads.
Case 1: Asked my grandfather to answer all incoming calls and tell whoever's on the line that I'm out. Bloody idiot doesn't get it and calls every half hour interval, until my grandpa is so irritated that he passes the phone to me. *dang*
Case 2: Another asked me in 4 different questions to basically find out what course I'm gonna take in university.
Senior: Which uni you going to and what school?
Me: NUS Arts & Social Science.
Senior: Which faculty you going?
Me: Arts & Social Science.
Senior: What course you gonna take?
Me: Arts & Social Science.
Senior: I mean, your subjects all belong to one category right?
Me: Arts & Social Science lah!
Senior: Then what subjects you gonna take?
Me: How I know. *steams*
Somebody saaaaaaaaaaaavvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee me!

Maroon red rectangular frames for me.
To be collected coming Friday. *grin*
Tinted blue frameless lens for mum.
To be collected 3rd July.
Damn. My mum looked damn cool in those new frames she picked. Not to mention that she still has an existing tinted pink frameless lens. Now a tinted blue. woah. Talk about being modern.
I We spent a total of $220+$160+$365=$745 at the optician today. That's like one month's pay! Nevertheless, it feels good to see my mum so happy today. Very worthwhile. *smiles* Especially when both of us failed (again) to wake up for breakfast @ Cartel and had to settle for lunch instead.
Now I can't wait to get those spectacles up on my nose. They give me an almost geekish look which I like.

Bikini shopping with Stacey.
She bought this really cute white one.
Awww. So super sweet.
I can't stand it at times.
*grin*
I'm finally spending a Saturday at home tomorrow with my mum..could tell she was really happy about it when I told her I'll be at home tomorrow. She planned the entire day's programme: breakfast at Cartel, making spectacles (and I'll be getting my champagne red frames) and marketing with her, eating chicken nuggets at MacDonalds.
Looking at her derive such pleasure from the thought of eating chicken nuggets at MacDonals, I couldn't help grinning despite myself.
Met up with a TJ senior not long, and he was lamenting to me about this good friend that fell out with him. We had a discussion on our views of friendship, his being "good friends should spend more time with each other, doing things together to get to know each other better." So in other words, quantity rather than quality? I certainly disagree. To me, good friends are special in a way that two people are able to pick up a conversation they left off 3 months/3 years ago and continue from there and then. Good friends do not necessarily have to spend all their time with each other but instead, be there when the other party needs them.
How can we possibly spend our time with just one friend when we have others to catch up with? There's only one of me and 500 of my friends. This senior's attempt at trying to maintain the friendship between us has turned into an irritating bugging-me session everyday. So much so that I wish not to reply to his constant messaging. *sigh*
Oh well! I had to let that out.
Picked up the bowling ball again, all 14.8lbs of it. I didn't realise how heavy it was till I started doing drills with it. Now I am aching all over. And what I did today was almost nothing compared to what I used to do during training back then.

I bought a horizontal striped tank top and a red polo tee!
*grin*

Retail therapy works wonders.
Wondering when I am actually going to get down to training. Just when I am finally free and ready for it, my coach decides to cancel my training, pushing it back to next week. Its very frustrating.
Partly because of the lack of time, how long I haven't been bowling, how much I have lost over the past few months. The sense of urgency due to the lack of time is overwhelming.
Pek chek!
I think transition periods are so difficult for my mum and me. She has to adapt to me going on to another stage of my life, adapt to me shedding another layer of the protective caccoon she has enveloped me in, get used to the fact that her daughter is after all, 19 years of age and going on 20, and not just the 13 year old she could control anymore. Very difficult. Complaining I'm not spending enough time at home, always going out at night..I mean, what does she expect? I have my social life, and so many friends I need to meet up with and have a good chit chat session.
Thinking of switching over to Starhub and passing my current line to my mum. Which will mean I'll get my Ericsson T630 *grin* Next month will be good. But it will mean I pay the full $35 every month for my phone bill. Oh well. *shrugs*
Time passes so fast, today's Thursday, tomorrow will be Friday. One more week before the next series of camps start for me again. In a way, I'm kind of looking forward to it because it will be another fast-paced program which I can ride high on adrenaline once more.

Monday
Sandwich at Olio. Mozerella cheese, turkey ham, mushrooms, cucumber and tomatoes filling. Chocolate milk topped with chocolate ice cream. Dulce de Leche at CoffeeBean, this new Ice-Blended is worth trying out though it costs a freaking $6! Super nice! Sichuan style la-mian and fried red-bean pancake dessert at Crystal Jade for dinner.
Tuesday
Sesame seed bread. 5 spices beef la-mian, xiao long bao and fried red-bean pancake dessert at Crystal Jade again.
Omg. I am really eating - alot.
Tried to catch Shrek 2 today, made the mistake of not booking tickets before hand and the 1955hr movie at Plaza was sold out. I think I'll have to buy the VCD and watch it with my friend. ANYONE has the vcd?
I felt as if I've been eating non-stop since the past week, and I have been feeling really guilty. Time to head back for training, but I'm too scared (of what, I do not know) to take the first step forward. *sigh* What is happening to me?

Blackened, baked, and brownified from Sentosa. Sun was scorching hot on Saturday. Spent it tanning at the poolside, playing Frisbee and walking the entire stretch of the beach, from Siloso to Palawan to Tanjong Beach. It was a beautiful day indeed.
g'four photos have updates! As well as camps.
Adding on,
Been listening to honky tonky noises on the piano the whole day, its enough to drive one crazy!
Today's meals are good. Prata for breakfast (yum yum!) french beans and corn for lunch, xiao bai cai and fish for dinner. Rather healthy! 'cept for that prata.
Been indulging in sinful delights recently.
Very bad.
Guilt is near overwhelming.
My jeans are way too big for me again, hence being rid of the title "perfect jeans". I suppose I shall find someone to alter them for me.
Met a couple of friends recently, and looking at them - makeup, all dressed up, heels, sprayed up hair, manicured nails and all, looking at myself - messy hair, oversized polo shirt with running shorts, Teva sandals, burnt brown and all...I begin to wonder whether I am the only one left unchanged since graduating from Temasek JC. But what's the point of trying to look so mature when you are going to have that mature working adult female look in 3-4 years time - permanently? I mean, no offence to those out there, but that's how I see it. At least the line "I like you the way you are" put me to ease. :)

2.15pm Friday and I'm left at home without plans for the day.
Too freaking hot to go cycling.
Nobody to cycle with.
Everybody's busy
When I am the only free one.
I can see the clear blue sky
with white clouds floating
for once.
Bought burgundy coloured Teva sandals to replace my Reef pair, I must say that pair of Reef sandals lasted me 4 years. Woah. Time for a replacement, expensive one at that. But hey, I like it. *beams* And I have in possession a new Adidas Polo shirt! Thank you dear!
Next stop: Adidas sneakers.
Couple of choices for the afternoon:
1. Cycle down (and melt) to Costa Sands and bum around.
2. Sleep the afternoon (and my eyebags) away.
3. Wash my shoes and pack my room.
4. Sleep.
5. Sleep.
6. Sleep.
Think I'll go sleep.

Its been a full 4 days worth of nua-ing for me so far, since Sunday. What else can I say?
Wah, so shiok.
Tuesday
Headed to the zoo! It wasn't a "woah!" experience, more like...lots of trekking and realising that the zoo is actually quite a small place since both XH and I managed to cover everything in 4 hours including lunch? The shows weren't amazing, maybe because the trainers weren't interactive enough with the audience, couple of awkward pauses somewhere in the midst of the whole show. And there were no giraffes. *glum look* But it was quite good going down on a weekday since there were only a few people, we don't have to like squeeze our way among the crowds to get a better view of the animals. All was good. 'Cept that the lions didn't roar.
Wednesday
At the rate I'm eating, I'm bound to gain back the few ounces I lost the past 2 weeks. Breakfast was hot chocolate with sandwich, had fried yong tao fu for lunch with my ex-colleagues at Raffles Place, followed by a bo luo bao (some Chinese bun), and then takopachi, and then dinner..and then donutballs for supper! yikes.
Watched Harry Potter, good show not to be missed. :) I find I am still quite amused by those small girls and their boyboys dancing para para. I mean, its quite a turn-off actually to see them attempt to shake. Reminds me of the time when I first tried para para with Xtina, Cong, Suz, HY, Ah-Neh. *grins* I think we fared much better than them!
*silly grin*
Became poorer by $123 after purchasing a Swatch Watch for my mum..its GOLDEN dusted! Glamorous!

Bumming around Tampines area, I am amazed and amused by how those small ah-bengs and ah-lians behave in Singapore. Step out from a bus and they start their string of ^%@^$#!^%# for no apparent reason. Plop themselves down on a chair and again the string of *&%^#^%#@ starts again - for no apparent reason. I am amazed by how rich they are - primary school kids carry about Roxy wallets, strut about in Ripcurl board shorts and Reef slippers - excuse me, I can ill afford it myself. Kids these days. They are horribly pampered. See them whip out their Sony Ericsson camera phone and yak as if they are on unlimited talktime usage. Worst of all are the walking fashion disasters. IF you have thunder thighs, please please please do not strut about in those short pleated skirts. The number I saw today was appalling enough, I didn't have much stomach for dinner. Make-up, with wonder-bras to push their tiny boobs together to show that supposed-magnificent-cleavage they have, those pointed shoes only to create blisters that hurt so much that those girls end up limping, and I can only guess at the amount they spent to perm their hair in those loose nice French curls - unsightly. Those youngsters look way older than their actual age.
It is so ironic that these girls attempt to look 21 when I am trying my best to look every bit of my 19 years, not more not less. Brings back memories, of the time I was in TKGS sec 2. *silly grin* I must have had a screw loose in my head to attempt to follow the trend back in 1999.
I baked muffins! Or rather, XH and I bought muffin mix, added water and egg and left the rest to the oven. Final result - yum yum. Blueberry muffins never tasted so good. *beams*
You are an Extrovert!
What is your mental profile?

I'm back from the whole series of camps.
Time to get my ass back to bowling training.
Time to meet my friends up.
But hey, new friends, new fun. I'm lovin' it.
Wednesday, June 02, 2004Time to get my ass back to bowling training.
Time to meet my friends up.
But hey, new friends, new fun. I'm lovin' it.
Starbucks mocha frappucino is really heavenly after 6 days of getting high on hot Milo. So much so that we have formed the Milo khakis to get high together. Somebody save me.
Burnt brown like anything after 6 days outside, and I have to admit, I'm really enjoying it. The only drawback was that majority of those 11-year olds are monsters! Yeah, they were all hyperactive, high-strung, oblivious to instructions, annoying, pesky and all..but some of them were perfect little angels, just like my little sisters. I guess these were the few students who made my job as their instructor worthwhile, and seeing the entire group of them enjoy the campfire night made it a wonderful experience, reminding me that we're all doing it for the kids.
I love this job.
Loss abit of weight after 6 nights of dance marathons, acting like a jumping maniac to get the kids pumped up, running around while on duty, night walks and cleaning ups. Muscle lines showing after moving a hell lot of stuff, building rafts and all. Fabulous brown look that is unfortunately, uneven.
I'm loving it.
Most of all, I love the company of the people whom I have spent sleeping under the same roof with. I enjoy being high with them, I enjoy grumbling with them, I enjoy watching all of us dance and drive ourselves crazy because of our passion for the job, for the kids.
I can't wait for next week to come. Got lots of things to do, got lots of places to go with XH. Can't wait.
I can't wait to spend my time with all my friends, since I won't be working anymore. I realised I have been so busy my entire life, I don't know whether its an essential aspect of me as Miss Busy-XP, but I'm really riding high on this element. Looking back, After PSLE, I spent my holidays working on my piano, after the O's, I spent my time appealing to VJ Band (unsuccessful attempt but good experience), after the A's, bowling training, work, camps..and I predict I'll still be busy with bowling training, and a few camps, spending time with XH, and friends, orientation camps at NUS and finally to a fresh start in NUS.
Will I ever rest? *grin* Doubt so.
Ride on.

Yeah, they were all hyperactive, high-strung, oblivious to instructions, annoying, pesky and all..but some of them were perfect little angels, just like my little sisters. I guess these were the few students who made my job as their instructor worthwhile, and seeing the entire group of them enjoy the campfire night made it a wonderful experience, reminding me that we're all doing it for the kids.
I love this job.
Loss abit of weight after 6 nights of dance marathons, acting like a jumping maniac to get the kids pumped up, running around while on duty, night walks and cleaning ups. Muscle lines showing after moving a hell lot of stuff, building rafts and all. Fabulous brown look that is unfortunately, uneven.
I'm loving it.
Most of all, I love the company of the people whom I have spent sleeping under the same roof with. I enjoy being high with them, I enjoy grumbling with them, I enjoy watching all of us dance and drive ourselves crazy because of our passion for the job, for the kids.
I can't wait for next week to come. Got lots of things to do, got lots of places to go with XH. Can't wait.
I can't wait to spend my time with all my friends, since I won't be working anymore. I realised I have been so busy my entire life, I don't know whether its an essential aspect of me as Miss Busy-XP, but I'm really riding high on this element. Looking back, After PSLE, I spent my holidays working on my piano, after the O's, I spent my time appealing to VJ Band (unsuccessful attempt but good experience), after the A's, bowling training, work, camps..and I predict I'll still be busy with bowling training, and a few camps, spending time with XH, and friends, orientation camps at NUS and finally to a fresh start in NUS.
Will I ever rest? *grin* Doubt so.
Ride on.
