13, February 28th is the anniversary of my existance, originated from Singapore, destiny is Australia, Riverlife is the church, Megalife is the group, SAC is the cell and the past school, 1/6 is the best class ever, SOTA is the present school, Asian,
Pasir Ris is the neighbourhood, Loyang Place is the road of the past and of chalky scribbles.
The Ohs and the Boks and the Yaps are my family :) God is the centre of my life.
I like 98.7FM, butterflies, flowers, rain photography, rain music, the wind, sky, sea, sleeping in, late nights, reading, chocolate anything, pristine thick blank notebooks with cool covers, dark and cold mornings, ice cream, nata de coco, ice, crystals, glass anything, jewels, anything shiny, iora, El Nath,
bazaars in Western Australia, dreamcatchers, hugs, lots of hugs, professional soulful pianists playing the piano, being refreshed.
I dream chart reuse, lawn green, green, aquamarine, turquoise, sea blue, deep sky blue, sky blue, light sky blue,light blue, silver, white.
I am all about photography, designing, drawing, listening to music.
My favourite place in the world besides my bed is Riverlife Church. I also miss Yanchep and Hillarys beach in Western Australia very much.
I hate saying goodbye (or worse, not being given a chance to say goodbye), running out of anything, studying, exams, being criticized, being compared, being used, being scolded for no reason, being nagged at, being looked down on, being ignored, being alone, feeling sad, feeling hopeless.

hahaha. fancy posting in school on my birthday. but whatever X3
I have just turned 13 years old. I looked in the mirror this morning and there`s nothing different about me. Still the same old 1.58m no double eyelid. oh, boohoo. whatever.
i remember last year i had to walk home from sch in the rain.
but so far it`s been pretty okay.
Daniel SMSed me this morning to wish me a happy birthday, and Hazel & Kyee tagged on my blog to wish me, too.
i got a death note wallet from Matilda, a NKJV bible from my 3rd aunty, a teddy bear from my 2nd aunty and a cool blank black covered notebook from Rosie from Prints. lovely.
i`m in IT now, and MRT says we can do whatever we want as long as we finished the last animation assignment we were meant to do for him. yay. so far so good.
Vaishnavi`s playing this really cool car game on y8.com and i`m like laughing at her because it`s so lame but seriously addictive. LOL.
okay i`m off to play some internet games now...

'dying' and basketball
Wednesday, February 27, 2008
YESTERDAY
during art Mrs Adrian wanted us to do this tie & dye job. so before we started she was like "GIRLS, ARE YOU READY TO DYE???" and it sounded like she wanted us to die and we all started cracking up. then for some girls who took so long to dye their cloth, and caused other people to wait for so long, the other people were like "HURRY UP LAH I WANT TO DYE" sounds like they want to die (kill themselves) hahaha. so funny.
then i fell asleep in CMECS and the teachers didn`t notice (there were like more than 3 of them). when i woke up, i saw Matilda`s head on her desk so i think she was equally tired and bored.
TODAY
basketball in the morning. run around field 10 rounds. came in first.
got running during PE and i came in first...Matilda, who was my partner, kind of came in last. and Miss Tay said that for the last 4 ppl who finish, their teams have to do 10 push ups. wahlao, so Matilda go and sabo me lor... but anyway i`m used to all the push ups during basketball so when Vivien was watching me do the push ups she was like "WAHH TEACHER SHE DAMN PRO WORR".
then i got 10/17 for my maths test. muahaha. i always only just pass, man.
then after school got basketball again. must run 10 rounds around bball court. other ppl only jogged 8 rounds and i was the only one who jogged 10 rounds -_-# lost our little match...winners get to drink water and losers jog 10 rounds of basketball court. so my team had to jog 10 rounds... whatever lah.
then my mother couldn`t fetch me from training so i had to take a bus back and walk all the way home...
couldn`t be a better way to end the 12 years of my life, man. i`ll be sad when tomorrow comes. i won`t be 12 anymore. i`ll miss being 12. the year of my life that i`ve experienced much, felt much. i don`t think it`ll ever be the same again. but that`s the cruelty of time; it waits for no one, no one in the world.

basketball
Monday, February 25, 2008
just came back from basketball.
and i have to admit that it has been one of the most tiring ones we`ve ever had.
it rained before basketball. which means when the rain stops, we have to get those uber long & cheapskate scrapers and push all the water off the court. believe me, it is no joke at all. your back hurts like crazy once you`re done. but it can be pretty fun sometimes haha. then when you push all the water off the court, you have to get newspaper to soak up the dampness. it was so disgusting, man.
then you know what?
we accidentally warmed up before jogging... it`s supposed to be the other way around. -_-# and we had to jog 10 rounds instead of 5. bloody hell.
and would you like to know what happened just as we were running?
IT STARTED TO RAIN AGAIN.
we were so pissed off because we did all that work of sweeping the water off the court ALL FOR NOTHING!!!
so we had to get the madison balls and do 5 sets... then skipping was 200... then 100 with right leg and another 100 with left leg then 200 skipping like cycling.
oh my mama.
then after we did that, the rain stopped so we had to go out and sweep the water off the court AGAIN. BLADY STINKING HELL. and my uber long scraper`s handle kept coming off like 5 times.
then we could only do shooting with one hoop because the seniors were using the other side. so, shooting for the rest of the day.
and the drain was like uber slippery so i fell down and landed on my fingers on the kerb. got a bleedin cut on my arm and scratch on my knee...and with really painful fingers. it affected my shooting but right now it`s not as bad. i didn`t tell the coach or anything even though some ppl said i should...
and guess what the coach said to us? she wanted all of us to score 30 baskets in a row. but for some reason we couldn`t make it because of some girls who couldn`t shoot properly, so it kinda went back to 0. then halfway through, she said those who miss 2 times in a row will make the entire class do push ups. i forgot how many we did. so many... then afterwards she thought she`d be nice and say whoever misses the basket will have to remain in a push-up position until the rest of the people still standing score 30 baskets. it HURTS LIKE HECK, alright.
then finally at like 6+ she knew she couldn`t keep us any longer so she said whoever makes it into the basket can warm down and go home. WOOOOOO! and i scored it on the first round so i got to go home. WEEEEE.

fighting
Sunday, February 24, 2008
today, in tuition (or rather, after tuition), it was like drama, man.
these two boys in my class right...when they both got into the lift they started shoving each other and bashing each other in the face until the whole lift started shaking like crazy (i wasn`t in it, thankfully). the innocent other boy who happened to be in the same lift as them quickly backed out of the lift as soon as the door started closing. then the bigger guy pushed the smaller guy out which caused the lift door to open and he fell down. then the two boys started fully bashing each other up in the face, it was so scary. all of us were just standing there looking at them. they seemed to really hate each other for some reason. Charlene and me decided to take the stairs instead of the lift because the two boys got out of the lift that was going down.
so as soon as we reached the first floor, we saw this bag just fall right ahead of us onto the ground. i knew it was one of the guy`s tuition bags. one of them must have thrown it out of the 13th floor. oh my goodness. it was so LOUD!
and these 3 aunties who happened to be on the first floor as well started popping questions out at the rest of us who were on the first floor. we told them the two guys were fighting... but i was kinda afraid of more bags raining down from the sky so i quickly headed for home. T.T
yeah. i wonder why those two guys were fighting.
i heard this on the radio... it`s a really old song. hope you enjoy it(:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANIEL!
Saturday, February 23, 2008
okay just wanted to wish one of my very bestest friends DANIEL a HAPPY 13th BIRTHDAY! yeps, may God`s greatest blessings be upon you, my friend, and may you do well in everything you try!(:
hahas. i met Daniel in church today. and i have got to say it was the most transforming, spiritually amazing services i have ever attended in my entire LIFE at Riverlife. i don`t know how to describe it, though... i don`t think words could measure up to how much it really meant to me. if you were at Riverlife today then you would most likely understand especially if you were 13 years old or younger (:
haha
yeps, i gave Daniel his pressie in church before the service started.
and after the service ended at 8:07PM, i knew that we weren`t going to have cell because the girls in my cell would`ve already wanted to go home because they came to church straight from their camp. but i don`t blame them. i would`ve wanted to go home too if i had camp. so i walked home full of bliss. i wouldn`t mind to stay in church for the entire night, to be honest. i think that`s when church camp comes into the picture. i think it`d be more than amazing.
this is gonna be one of the specialest days in my life; i`ll always remember it.

♥ what i found...
this morning i got up pretty late haha. i was just trying to remain in my bed for as long as possible because i knew today was Saturday and i`m not supposed to get up early because i`ve been getting up early ALL WEEK. unfortunately i eventually had to get out of my bed because of my 8 year old next-door neighbour singing like a strangled cat going: "IIII AMM THE CHAMPIONNNN OF THE WORLDDD", and because my brother`s computer game was making so much noise in the next room.
a perfect Saturday morning ruined. and my mother nagging like nobody`s business and trying to sound important and shyt... this is what you get when you have a mother as a principal. why did i have to end up with a mother like this, you tell me? one thing about having a mother as a principal is that they treat you like you`re one of their students at school. imagine your school principal living with you. *shivers* it`s a nightmare, i tell you. probably the reason why i agreed to go to aussie in the first place. but now that i`m back in the place where i belong, she`s the only person i need to avoid at all costs, man.
anyway, this morning i thought i`d be a guai kia and clean out my entire table, like throwing out all the useless rubbish from the drawers. one thing i love about this is that you find all these old things you didn`t know you had. so i found this little autograph book i had in P3 and i got all these people surrounding my desk during that time to write their details! :DDD i got their signatures too... and OMG LOL ZQ gave me his block number & his house number. ROFLLL. i bet he`ll have a fit if i told him that right now. coz no way he`s gonna give it to me now if i ask him...I`VE ALREADY GOT IT ;))
and i found the list of boyfriends Shi Min wrote when she was in P3 OMG it was so funny. i think i might as well write them down here since she never comes here anyway and because it was so long ago, anyway. SHI MIN`S P3 LIST OF BOYFRIENDS: Brandon Too, Kenneth Neo, ZQ, Jin An, Aaron, Emerson, Dion, Travis and someone`s name which i put a big ??? instead. roflmao.
ahhhh the good old days, man. when we were young and innocent.

[this bit was made at 3:13PM]
i was looking at my old posts then i saw that Titanic 2 video. so when i went to watch it on Youtube, i found a related video to it...
IT`S SO SAD. but the movie in this video was the modern day Romeo & Juliet LOL so it wasn`t really Rose`s granddaughter.

laughing
Friday, February 22, 2008
you know...
it really made me laugh so much just to look at the pictures we took of the camp. long time sine i laughed so much. i never thought i`d say this, but i`m sure gonna miss the camp. even though it was just yesterday... but now it seems so far away.
...at least i got the e-mails of our instructors, yeah ;)
i`ll miss trading lessons for outdoor activities... and on Monday we`ll have to go back to the land of textbooks and tests -sighs- and i`ll have to go back to basketball, too.
(speaking of tests, i talked to Miss Ning today and she told me i was the only one out of our entire class that actually passed the first english test O_O)
-speechless-

Day 2 & 3 of camp
i guess i`ll have to spend all afternoon simply blogging about this T.T
i got to school on time...
had to assemble in the hall and when i was sitting down, it was only then that i realised i forgot to bring (and wear) my PE shorts. =.=" but it was okay because we eventually didn`t have to change into them at all. MUAHAHAHAHA.
and stupid Mr Ng went to collect all our handphones and wallets and guess what he said? "we don`t enjoy collecting your handphones and wallets" YEAH RIGHT. IF YOU DON`T ENJOY IT THEN WHY ARE YOU EVEN DOING IT? he goes: "this is for your own protection" BWAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA. can laugh until we drop dead, you know. protection my foot, lah.
yeah. our instructors were called Doreen, Joshua & John (and Bernice and her clique were like sexually harassing John because he`s the youngest instructor who looks like he`s 15 years old but he`s really 19, and they wouldn`t stop screaming his name, going "JON-JON!!!!" and crowding around him, man. boy, they`ve either got srsly bad taste or they`re too despo alrd).
then we went to the Botanical Gardens and i have to admit that it was even worse than going to Sentosa because srsly all we did was walk and walk and walk around in the heat listening to Bernice`s clique screaming "JON-JON!!!!". i was like uber relieved when we finally got onto the buses, man.
when we got back to school our class got to use the 3rd floor bathrooms to shower and we were allowed to use the male toilets (they`re freaking small, alright. and they only had:
one toiletbowl
one mirror
one sink, and
one of those male toilet thingys that are like attached to the wall.)
and like 10 of us were just piled in there banging on the shower door whenever someone exceeded the time limit for showering which was 5 minutes.
when i had my shower i was like YIPEEEEE I`M CLEAN!!! LOL
had to assemble in the stupid hall again...
when we finally got to eat our dinner (which was an improvement: fried rice), Celeste was just shrieking in delight going: "YAYYYYYYYYY FRIED RICE YAYYYYYYYYYYYY". o.o"
then we had to assemble in the hall again... our class was on duty so some of us had to clean the canteen tables and some of us had to carry the benches outside for the campfire (me and Nima were like the 'strong' people because we play so much basketball. hahaha. we actually saw like 4 girls carrying one bench LOL). then we had to go back to the hall again, like wth, man.
then we went downstairs for the campfire thing. it was massive, man. and i was sitting in the front row so i had like the full impact of the heat. __-__ lots of songs that were like a million miles from being cool, lots of action girls dancing like they work in a pub or smth, and lots of smoke and sparks. man, i feel sorry for the people living in the HDB flats. the campfire didn`t end until around 10smth so...yeah.
went back upstairs to change afterwards...then we had to bring all our stuff down to the hall...unrolled our sleeping bags...lights out at 11:30PM.
Carissa didn`t want a picture.
and neither did Fung Ling.
but Sally was all out for it, man.
i didn`t bring a pillow or anything so i had to use my bag as a pillow which wasn`t very comfortable so i pretty much slept on my arms the whole night. woke up at like 3:34AM because the fans were making so much noise. woke up at 5:26AM because people were already starting to wake up. and to my dismay, i realised Mr Ng said we were only supposed to wake up at 7AM. -_-#
instructors told us to jog one round of the field *CHICKEN FEET LAHH* and i came in first, anyway. then we got to eat our breakfast (bee hoon) and then go back upstairs to the hall...
yeah. did some stuff in the hall then they announced the winners (our class wasn`t even in the top 3 hahahaha) and sang a goodbye song. a lot of girls were crying for some reason and i was just like: "why are you even crying? it`s only the second month of the year for crying out loud" and yeah. got our instructors` emails and stuff.
then we were dismissed! YAYY! Nikki and me took the bus back together and bought smth to drink from Tea Valley from DTE. yeps. walked back home...
i finished eating my lunch (i`ve never been more grateful to be in my own home) and here i am.
-_-# and i just realised i have to go for tuition later. DAMN IT!!! wahpiang, eh.

Day 1 of camp
Wednesday, February 20, 2008
oh. my. g.
before i start the complaining spree, i`ll just write down what happened today.
got to school 2 hours early and found some other Sec 1s who accidentally came early too and started to play Cheat with them with the demented cards i brought along in case of boredom (knowing camps, there`s meant to be a boring bit in every one).
went to the hall to listen to some overly dramatic instructors... pretty much wasted our time there. ZzZZzZzZzZ.
then we had to go to the canteen to eat our lunch. all the stalls were closed. instead, we had those styrofoam boxes where our lunch supposedly was. when we were finally given permission (yes, given permission) to open our boxes, all of us were just staring blankly into the box. CONTENTS OF TODAY`S LUNCH: green rice, two tiny pieces of what Li Luan told me should have been fish cake but tasted more like yam with curry instead, ikan bilis, beans. -_-# if they at least want to give us food, AT LEAST MAKE IT BETTER THAN THE CANTEEN FOOD, DAMN IT!!! i`d rather eat the canteen food instead. but whatever. i noticed that our table was the only table with a meal like that. other tables had things like beehoon and egg in their rice. -__-# i also noticed that none of us seemed to want to finish our food. as long as we finished more than half of the rice, we just threw it all away. T.T
last class to get to the buses because our form teacher was the only one with the classroom key and all of us were like waiting outside the classroom screaming (Sally was looking none too pleased) for our teacher and by the time she got there, all the classes had gone so we had to like run all the way down from the 4th floor. one good thing about being on the 4th floor. -_-#
yeah. bus ride to Sentosa was pretty boring.
when we got to Sentosa, we had to dump all our things on the sand and go to our different stations. the sand was so bloody spiky, rough and HOT HOT HOT!!! most of us got blisters on our feet by the time we finished... it`s like spending 3 whole hours on burning, broken shards of glass, man. AND WE WEREN`T EVEN ALLOWED TO GO NEAR THE SHORE, let alone go into the sea.
when we finished, we were all thirsty and looking around the shops. Mr Ng chased some girls out of 7/11 and told us sharply that we weren`t allowed to go and buy anything from 7/11. so, some of us went to the food court. he chased us out of there too.
WAHPIANG, EH!!! GO TO SENTOSA FOR WHAT IF WE CAN`T EVEN GO INTO THE SEA OR BUY ANYTHING??? WASTE MY $$ WASTE MY TIME, SIA! might as well go back to studying in school.
bus ride back to school was boring, yet again...
had to assemble in the hall for no reason at all before they dismissed us from there.
Rosie and me fully sprinted to the canteen (all the shops were closed) and to our greatest and utmost dismay, all the drinks in the vending machine were sold out.
GAHHHH.
my mother didn`t pick up her handphone, which meant i had to take a bus home. Chelsea & Nikki went back with me since we live quite near to one another. we bought smth in DTE at the MrBean shop to eat while we walked back home. yeah.
and now i`m on the computer.
tomorrow we have to stay overnight in SCHOOL, so yeah. i won`t be posting tomorrow unless we`re lucky enough to break into the computer labs at night (wahahaha fat hope). i hope tomorrow will be more worth it.

amazing how a feeling and a mentality can be totally changed in a day. i think it`s just a matter of patience.
today my chinese tuition teacher managed to help me in my chinese homework so there`s nth really to worry about that area now. i`m so happy.
after chinese tuition i went straight to Megalife because Elizabeth wanted to meet me at like 3:30PM. so i met her there then we just chatted awhile. the service was really cool as usual :D
after service we had cell... and in our cell we were talking about who we were going to invite to the Easter Service on the 22nd of March. and Elizabeth said something that i think really meant a lot... she`s going to try and get her whole soccer team to come, man. and it doesn`t matter how many people you invite, man. just ask everyone whose name comes into your mind when you think of who to invite. even if you think they`re someone who might reject it or say no. because God is just waiting for them to come back to Him...and maybe they don`t want to come now, but they`ll come back to Him one day in the future. so just ask them. when you try, there`s always a chance; there`s always hope. Elizabeth said "if not now, then when? if not you, then who?" and i thought it really meant a lot.
yeah... and Aaron sent me this video which i thought brightened up both of our moods. well, because he told me that by listening to this song he got happy already. but i only got happy because the guy in the white shirt was so hot >.<"

repeating the roboticness
i know i might have said this in the past, but i can`t help but feel that i`m wasting; wishing my life away. it`s something hard to explain, but i`ll have to try, anyway. i didn`t care about how long it took; i just wanted to get it done and over with as long as i survived in the end. but...what can i do now, when it`s all over? i told myself i wanted to start living better now, so that i don`t regret it later on. but it seems that i just keep regretting. tell me, is there a way you can live that you don`t regret it later on?
nowadays in school, i`m just constantly being pressurised with homework, man. i threw away that life, and it was my choice but i know i`ll be able to redeem it one day... but that day is still far away. i realised that when you have something, you wish for something else. and when you already have that something else, you wish for the first thing you had. is life meant to be all about wishing?
that time on Valentine`s Day, our teacher made us write on a piece of pink heart shaped paper what we wish for and stick it at the back of the class, on the giant pinboard. i read everyone else`s before sticking mine up. and i was like the only one in the entire class who didn`t wish for good grades besides Bernice who wished that 'she could enter JC so that she could find a BF'.
damn this life.

this day sucks
Friday, February 15, 2008
okay, well i can`t expect good days all the time, right? but i never thought it could get as bad as this. my goodness. it all just ruined my Friday. i so fully wanted to have a break, you know. but i can`t expect it in Singapore...
to start off this lousy day, i realised on the way to assembly that i lost my school badge somewhere. damn those lousy cheapskate badges. they fall off so damn easily.
our first lesson was History. we waited like 15 whole minutes for Mr Lee to come. and we weren`t even 15 minutes through when the principal made an announcement over the PA system and told us all to 'evacuate' out onto the field because it was an emergency drill. BLOODY HELL, LAH!!! WHERE GOT TIME TO DO THIS KINDS OF CRAP?!?! IT`S A TOTAL WASTE OF TIME!! anyway, since we all had to line up according to our index number i was right at the back... and Vaishnavi (i don`t really know how to spell her name, but we call her Vovo instead) and me were just trying to kill time. we had to sit there for like half an hour okay. and the teachers weren`t doing like anything at all. so me and Vovo played scissors paper stone then pepsi cola and then we started wishing... i was like wishing for this whole emergency drill to end, i wish that i had food, i wish i had my handphone here, i wish we could go back to class, i wish i could go home, i wish a car would crash through into the school, i wish i had my iPod here. vovo was like wishing she had a PS2, that she could go to the computer lab to use the computer, that a snake would appear out of the grass and frighten the teachers away, that more snakes would accompany the previous snake, and that this whole emergency drill was over.
PSSSSH. and after that drill, GUESS WHERE WE HAD TO GO.
THE HALL. FOR ANOTHER ASSEMBLY.
WE WERE DOWNRIGHT FED-UP with the whole thing. i was like practically falling asleep in assembly, man. i am not kidding. it was so boring that i don`t even remember what we went there for.
anyway we got a lot more english homework and a whole pile of chinese homework. not to mention we have an english test and a maths test on Monday, so we got to study up. oh my goodness. it sucks. i feel sorry for Rosie. she hasn`t been to school for like more than 3 weeks. may God help her in her tests if she ever were to come back to school on Monday.
in addition to this sucky day, i could only stay for basketball until 3 something because my MOTHER agreed to let me go for chinese tuition TODAY. WHY ON EARTH DID SHE DO THAT?!?!?! anyway Dunman Sec came to VS my school`s basketball team and i didn`t even get to stay to watch them finish. but they were on a tie when i left so i didn`t know who won.
and i was late for tuition because i had to change buses...
i am just really grateful that i managed to survive till the end of today. i sincerely hope that i`ll still be able to say i`m alive by Monday.
i chose this life... i think i knew what i was doing at that point in time... but it`s too late to turn back now. all i can hope to do is just survive until the next decision i make changes my life for the better. why does time have to be so cruel? i think i`m going to make a blog to write my poems down, since you guys know my posts in this blog are damn long enough.
yours till my life stops seeming so screwed, x/christieo

Happy Valentine's Day
Thursday, February 14, 2008
this is the only post you`ll see me writing fully in pink, because it`s Valentine`s Day.
well. another Valentine`s Day all alone. instead of receiving roses & pink heart-shaped balloons, i`m sitting here trying to figure out how to do my art & english homework that is BOTH DUE TOMORROW. -sighs-
boohoo.
well, being in a girls school, i thought i wouldn`t see any girls carrying roses around from their BFs. no way, man. where did all those roses come from anyway? oh. these seniors were carrying a basket FULL of roses and giving them to random people. no, me and my friends didn`t get one. ahhh whatever.
i think i`m going to finish my homework now...
enough of Valentine`s Day blues.

[this bit was made at 5:34PM] that GUY who SMSed me at 12:20AM in the morning had to CALL me on my hp when he could talk to me on MSN instead. *shakes head* boys these days... and another guy asked me to draw a picture for him for art, and after i sent him the picture, he told me he needed 5 more. __-__ the guy who i thought trusted me let me down. i don`t think he knows. the guy who i thought i trusted let me down, too. i don`t think he knows either.

Wednesday, February 13, 2008
yeah. the title of this post is pretty much self-explanatory.
i`m in school. and it`s freaking cold in this computer lab. wanna know why? i`m sitting directly under the air con right now. IT`S SO COLD OKAY!!! MY FINGERS ARE LIKE FREEZING. but whatever.
we just had to like look for information on littering. i`ve already finished my worksheet so i`m blogging now...
anyway this morning before school started, for basketball, our seniors told us to jog 5 rounds around the school field LOL. i came first :DDD but some people ran only 4 rounds though because they were tired out. it was okay. after school i have basketball again...until like around 6.
oh my g. Matilda is looking at the screen now. she asked me if i have bball today. and when she read this, she said "WAHLAO EHH".
diao.
Miss Ong is going through the worksheet with the class but like no one`s listening. boohoo. HAHA she just asked Matilda the first question.
oh my mama my fingers are so COLD!!@!@!@@!@@!
i`m going to stop blogging now. my fingers are too cold to type.

me and my wallet.
Tuesday, February 12, 2008
okay. i`m just gonna tell you a little bit about what happened on SUNDAY.
i went to Riverlife and sat with Joy and her mother. the message was pretty good. at 12-ish, i went to BPMC because i thought i`d be able to hang out with the rest since that day was the day i wouldn`t have chinese tuition on a Sunday. anyway David called me and told me service ended at 12. but i knew it didn`t. it ends at 12:30PM. but since he was bugging me so much i was like FINE, I`LL GO NOW. and when i got there, i wish so much i hadn`t gone. because it was all for nothing. so now i pretty much know that most boys are like total letdowns because you think you know them but in the end, you realise it was all for nothing. MOST boys, i`m not saying all boys are like that. yeah i saw Kenneth in LP.
after Vic and me finished our lunch we thought it would be nice to go to the arcade. but everyone like ditched us. they all had to go. so Vic and me decided to go to the one at DTE since we`d never been there before.
and i lost my wallet there. i don`t know how. so the aunty at the counter asked me to write my name and my HP no. down on a piece of paper and write down what i lost, just in case they find it.
so i was pretty depressed when i walked home. Vic was like trying to console me and all that which i thought was the sweetest thing a second cousin could ever do, you know.
and Aaron SMSed me saying he wanted to play Audition with me but at that point my mother said we were going to a relative`s house. so i was doubly depressed at that point because i didn`t want to go because i was feeling bad enough and because i`d rather play Audition with Aaron.
but i had to go or else my mother would start screaming at me.
so while i was at my relative`s house feeling like really bored coz all the adults were talking to each other, not paying any attention to me, i got a call from the aunty at the arcade O_O she went: "ni shi...christie oh, dui ma? ni de wallet zhao dao le."
oh
my
g.
I WAS LIKE LITERALLY GOING OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG. THANKYOUUUUUUU. so i told my parents they found my wallet and that i wanted to go to DTE to collect it. but they only left like 45 minutes right after i told them that. sheesh.
ANYWAY, i got my wallet back so i`m like super happy, man.

Marine Parade
Friday, February 8, 2008
yeps, so today we went to my mother`s side, but we only visited my grandparents and a cousin. it was in Marine Parade...and Jonathan Oh`s grandparents` flat is actually THE NEXT BLOCK AWAY FROM MY COUSIN`S HOUSE. so i was like, HEY this place looks familiar. because we were only there yesterday hahaha.
my cousin`s house is right next to that longkang next to VJC. so we got like a really great view from there.
the view from my cousin`s house (on the 24th floor). you can actually see East Coast park there.
another view...
it was pretty cool there. hahaha :D i wanna live in Marine Parade someday. it`s so cool there ;)

Happy Chinese New Year(:
Thursday, February 7, 2008
well... it`s Chinese New Year.
we went to the grave first thing this morning...it was all the way in the west of Singapore and i don`t even know where it is, but i was actually quite thankful that it wasn`t raining.
then we went to visit my father`s aunties and uncles. and i actually met my second cousins that i never really knew of...but they actually share the same surname as me haha :D Victoria is like my second cousin but i know about her because she lives so near to me. haha. a second cousin i met today was called Alfred Oh who was this sec 3 guy who was like super addicted to this computer game when we were at his house. but he didn`t really talk much. then my next second cousin was this sec 2 guy called Jonathan Oh and my mother told me later on that he actually attends Riverlife sometimes with his father and he sits with him in the main service. cool. he doesn`t attend Megalife, though. well, i think it`s because they stay all the way in Marine Parade. yeah then my mother goes: "HE HAS A FRIENDSTER, YOU KNOW" right in front of us and i was like "please don`t start embarassing yourself" but of course i didn`t say that out loud... anyway i was checking my friendster just now because i was bored and i decided to see if he really had one and i actually found it O_O LOL.
this was taken in one of the houses i went to. these are REAL flowers.
yeps! it was a pretty long day but i guess it was quite fun as well... travelling all around the island in this mini van. haha.
i`m going to sleep now~ toodles;))

everything...
Wednesday, February 6, 2008
today, when school was meant to end at 10:30AM, we got dismissed at 11:12PM. and no, it wasn`t because we were being too noisy, or anything. it`s because the teachers themselves totally wasted our time with totally irrelevant things to that CNY celebration. dude, what kind of school that was founded from Italy CELEBRATES CHINESE NEW YEAR, may i ask? that`s like just totally twisted.
so anyway, we missed two double decker buses due to the kiasu girls pushing their way to the front of the bus. i looked at both bus drivers and there was no mistaking the oh-dear-not-SAC-girls-again-on-my-bus look on their faces.
so anyway, Fatin and me shared a taxi with her two friends and my senior Angelica. one of Fatin`s friends ended up calling the taxi number because we spent like half an hour trying to flag down taxis but they were all either HIRED or BUSY. Note to self: Never, EVER try to catch a taxi when it`s a public holiday.
anyway we got to PRPS at like 11:30+ and i met some old friends... i saw Jia Hui and she was like OMG OMG OMG CHRISTIEEE. yeah. we bought cup noodles from the minimart and talked a lot.
PEOPLE I SAW IN ORDER OF WHEN I SAW THEM: Glendon Gwee Darren Wang Chan Yu Min Muaz Amirul Zulfiqar Liyana Hazel Beverly Jia Hui Daniel Marissa Firdaus
yeps. pretty cool. then Jia Hui and me went to LP because we felt that we were desperate for air-con when the wind didn`t blow anymore. yeah so we bought medium fries from McDonalds while talking somemore and looking at the big big TV inside.
and i saw Janene with her brother and her mother in LP eating their lunch...haha.
yeah so after Jia Hui and me walked and talked somemore, we decided that we should be heading home. it was quite nice to see her again...and we were like talking about stuff we did in P1 and how long ago it was and how we wished so much for it to come back again... but what can we do? nothing. exactly.
what`s the point of wishing, nowadays?
yours until i finish my homework and when wishes start to come true, x/christieo
[this bit was made at 10:27PM] i just came back from my relative`s house. it`s always so boring there. because i`ve got a 35+ year old cousin who teaches at Temasek Secondary... and a 30+ year old cousin who`s got a GF, and a 27+ year old cousin who`s also got a GF and two girl cousins who have finished their secondary life,
and to make matters worse, i`m the youngest in both sides of the family so no one ever talks to me there. SO!
i was like super bored...flipping my handphone around and around...looking at pictures i took... today was like the most boring day apart from meeting Jia Hui and the rest, i guess.
David is such a comfort, man. he knows exactly what to say sometimes. in other words...he`s just a good friend(:

YESTERDAY
i had basketball training... it`s the only training for this week seeing that we have the chinese new year holiday for the rest of the week and all. and it was pretty good because i think i`m improving in my layups. MUAHAHAHA. then all these sec3s or sec4s who quit basketball decided to play today and there were like all these bungs playing with us and the seniors and some other sec1s were making jokes abt them and stuff... but i thought it was more worthwhile to concentrate on training instead of making fun of a few girls with boyish haircuts.
then i went to WS to buy some stuff with my parents...
TODAY
was super boring. i think i might only scrape by with a C or (i hope not) even a D. i have no idea what that teacher is talking about. we haven`t had any homework from her so far. and she can`t speak english for nuts.
ooooh and by the way...I GOT MY NAME TAG TODAY! muahaha. hmmm. it`s written the same way as it was in PRPS: Christie Oh. LOL
i have SO MUCH homework, i`m going to go crazy. the homework listings below is for the benefit of those girls in my class who call/SMS me just to ask me what homework we`ve got.
MATHS: pg 42 & 43 of textbook, pg 44`s questions: 1b, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1g, 1h, 2, ALL ON FULL SCRAP PAPER. check your answers at the back...
ART: stupid research on LOGOS and COLOUR and your animation powerpoint...submit through the EduLearn thingy.
SCIENCE: Chapter 2 of the Theory workbook. i`m not kidding. the ENTIRE chapter.
GEOGRAPHY: Ex 4.2 on pg 17, pg 19: draw a map of a room in your house
HISTORY: read Chapter 3 of textbook
CMECS: CD DECORATION: write your intended action on the front, decoration should have at least 3 colours (excluding black). use of stickers is welcome.
CHINESE: bring an orange to class if you haven`t already. (seriously, why do we even have to? and who`s going to eat them anyway?)
bloody hell. these teachers have got to be on drugs, man. who do they think they are, piling so much homework on us, anyway? who do they think WE are? the spawn of Superman or what? someone has to hammer into their heads that we are INNOCENT LITTLE KIDS TRYING TO GET THROUH EACH AND EVERY DAY AS QUICKLY AND WITH AS LITTLE HOMEWORK AS POSSIBLE. SHEESH!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOY!
Saturday, February 2, 2008
okay, today is a really special day. but i can`t say right now beause it`s only 10:28PM.
today, the Loyang Placers remember our dear JOY's birthday!!! HAPPY 12TH BIRTHDAY, JOY!!! you`re finally a dozen years old(:
she`s all grown up. *sobs* and i still remember the times we used to hop around on the road barefoot. and draw on the road with coloured chalk. and i still remember how you looked when you were five or six years old T.T wahhh. your face doesn`t really looked like it`s changed. LOL! but you`re adorable, all the same(:
i`m going to go over to your house right after i get home from tuition, okay? to wish you a really happy birthday:DDD
i love the pictures you took of the Loyang Place sun ^^ i love your blog song, too, for some reason. LOL. oh yeah, i remember, now. i heard it on the radio last night. MUAHAHA. 98.7FM!♥
yeah. have a lovely day today, Joy!
yours till Joy turns 13 next year, x/christieo
[this bit was made on Sunday, 3rd February, 2008 at 7:25PM]
okay. this is finally the time i can post in peace, without Aaron bugging me to play Audition with him.
i saw Joy today again :DDD in church. haha. she totally didn`t expect to see me there and i was all: "AND YOU`RE NOT EVEN HAPPY TO SEE ME." hahaha. and i got three choccies there! chocolate number one was from one of the twins who was Joy`s friend, but she didn`t want it, so i had it. chocolate number two was a plain milk chocolate bar. chocolate number three was a milk chocolate bar with rice crackles in them.
and...one of the twins dropped her chocolate by accident on the floor and at the same time, i was talking to one aunty. when i finished talking to her, i sort of moved my foot. and at that very moment, that twin was like "DON`T STEP THERE" RIGHT as i put my foot down. and when i removed my foot, LO AND BEHOLD! I SQUASHED HER DROPPED CHOCOLATE. it looked like a mini pancake gone wrong. and all these bits of chocolate were sticking to my sneakers and i was like AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH.
so i had to spend like five minutes trying to get the chocolate off on the grass while the twin was trying to wipe the chocolate off the ground with a piece of paper. and she was going "EEEEEEW THIS IS SO GROSS" -_-#
yeah.

basketball training number three
Friday, February 1, 2008
my goodness. it`s February, already. and i can no longer say that i was in Australia last month. i was in Australia two months ago (: but it all seems like a dream to me, now. it`s as if it was never real; that it never happened. i`m thinking about Australia now because only the other day i found my class photos from there. and i was just sitting there in my room in front of the fan just looking at those faces i used to see almost every day of the week. you have no idea how depressing that can get. which is why i`m going to buy a bar of chocolate tomorrow to treat myself. muahaha. chocolate makes you happy AND it`s scientifically proven.
okay, whatever. today after school it rained like nobody`s business, man. and it rained so hard that i couldn`t even see the buildings across the road from the inside of the canteen, man. sheesh. and so Angelica, my senior (who`s in Sec2) told me that when it rains during days when you have bball, be prepared for a major bone-breaking training. because you know why?
we train in the CANTEEN. ON THE FLOOR. you have no idea how gross it is. but once you`re down on the floor sweating like heck, and when your arms and legs and stomach muscles are being strained to their limit, you don`t even think about hygiene at all.
anyway, we started off with those massive pink balls that my brother afterwards told me were called Madison balls. and afterwards, my coach told me that they were 3kg. no WONDER they were so heavy. but since we`ve experienced them before, they weren`t so bad after awhile.
it`s only when you do 100 CHEST PASSES, 100 HIGH SHOTS, 100 sit ups with them in your hands, 100 passes to your partner with your arms kept straight and another 100 sideway passes to your partner with them that you really understand the meaning of 'a heavy Madison ball'. and afterwards when we used the regular basketballs, they were NOTHING.
i can`t explain to you everything we did. we did so much. we did 500 jumps with a skipping rope which honestly hurts your stomach and chest. we did 20 push ups at the end of the lesson, which was no joke. everyone was on the canteen floor with sweaty hands and all of us couldn`t even muster up enough strength to push ourselves back up because we have to go ALL THE WAY DOWN when we do a push up. and no, it`s not a girl push up where you get on your knees. it`s a BOY`S push up WITHOUT GETTING ON YOUR KNEES.
coach advises us to eat more bananas because they help heal you faster. LOL. and she advises us to do more push ups and train more handling of the basketball. i left my basketball in Australia, damn it!!! i guess i`ll have to borrow one of Kenneth`s. who knows how many HE`S got???
missed the double decker and single decker bus 17. i know because i saw the top of them while i was still in school. so i had to wait for another 10 minutes before the next one came.
and i saw Daniel on it when we reached PRCS. i didn`t even know he was on the same bus as me because i was all the way at the front and he was all the way at the back. and when i saw him, i was like: "DANIEL!" *waves* and all he did was smile a little and wave a little. sheesh, Daniel, don`t say hi or anything.
yeah. it was drizzling when i walked back.
yours till i decide whether to play basketball for life, x/christieo
