Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind.

english 846

Friday, July 27, 2007



I'm home early today!! we were released at 11.25pm today instead of the usual 1.45pm. how great can that be? all we did was hand in our essay and she explained essay #5 which was basically a revision essay. stayed behind for a while with Mo and chatted with her. went to the cafeteria and ordered garlic fries-our norm. haha. played with ketchup again. we never grow up. anyway, im home now and have no clue what to do. kim hasnt sent me my extra worksheets yet so i cant do my revision essay and sims just wont work on my computer. grrrr...




anyway, i finished reading harry potter in 8 hours! haha. my new record. it would never happen if i were to be in singapore. stayed up through the night just to read it. i love love love the story. best book ive ever read! well, not exactly. how many books do i even read? hah. go figure.




gonna have a huge party on sunday. aunt elizabeth's 50th birthday! its gonna be a surprise too. lots of things to be done. ok, i m left with nothing else to type. nothing much exciting/interesting happened this weeek except that im very pleased with my results. 96 for math! never achieved that before. haha. A for all my essays. im over the moon! okie dokiee, i shall go stone now. bye!!





i miss you so so much!! i wanna hug you to sleep!


harry potter 5 and biking!

Friday, July 20, 2007

there goes another week of school... and now im left with 2.5 weeks before summer school is over! the way time flies is just amazing. come to think of it, ive been here for 2.5 months already. and i can say, life just cant get any better other than the fact that i miss quite a couple of things and people and times. there is soo much less stress, quizzes dont come every day, its every other week!! plus, ive got a huge shock yesterday. we were suppose to have our maths midterm on wed(yesterday) but we werent kinda ready according to him so he postphoned it to monday. that wasnt it. he passed us the paper we were gonna sit for on monday and allowed us to look through it for 15 mins!! PLUS, he allowed us to take notes!! so, that means we could literally copy the questions, get the answers and put it down on monday! how great is that? its mcq too!! now, you could never get that in singapore! is that just great or what.

anyway, me, joyce plus her friend, jeff and aaron caught harry potter last friday on imax 3d! went for the 10.45pm show but we reached at about 7.30pm. though we werent the first in line, we still got pretty good seats. =) sat around and laughed non-stop. oh mee gee, that was the best though yes i agree it was too short. the 3d part was sooo cool. if they come out on 3d on dvd, im gonna get it no matter how much it is. after that, sent all of them home and there was a big jam on the freeway. huge accident. reached home only at around 3am. i dont think ive ever stayed out that night before. at least not in singapore.

on sat, we had nothing much to do at home so we decided to go biking. it was crazzzy. since we only had 3 bikes but 4 of us were going, jon sacrificed himself and decided to walk/run while we girls cycled. gentleman. haha. it was 12 miles (19.3km) altogether. yeah, but of course we pitied him and for the 6 miles back, we took turns to walk and cycle. but, we didnt mind since we had to cycle uphill to get back. it was so tiring. and, we had so little sleep the night before. imagine sleeping at 3.30am waking up at 10+am and then going for a cycling spree. hah. tiring but fun.

okay.. i guess i'll end here. schools pretty much the same so nothing to say about that. im gonna queue at midnight tomorrow for harry potter and the deathly hallows!!! wheee.. cant wait! off to watch tv! this ish the life!!


HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Friday, July 13, 2007

i should scratch the entire last post.

anyway, i had quite a good birthday considering the number of people and surprises i got.
so i got awaken by the doorbell that morning at 8.30am. i almost decided not to open the door until it rang thrice. got out of bed and was so happy to receive a parcel from my parents. right on time too!! phew i got up! opened it immediately and they sent me presents. forever friends bear holding a cake and a sheep cushion from happy house. was so happy i teared. i mean i never thought they would send me something so sweet. thought maybe they would just send a card or sth but never imagined to recieve 2 presents! sent me other stuff as well. started hugging my bear and cushion the whole while and almost brought it to school with me. haha. love it loads!!

so, the moment i tepped into class, i heard 'happy birthday' one after another. it so made my day. and as usual, our teacher always brings food for us and so, she offered me a doughnut! she only brought 3 and that was lucky since i didnt have breakfast. =)) haha, and my friends suggested to go get a candle to place in the middle of the doughnut and pretend its a cake. so sweeet. but of course, they couldnt find one but it was alright.

before that, i was about to leave the house for school when joyce came back!! yay! my lonely days are over!! she picked me up from school and we talked a lot. told me funny stories like what happened over at florida and that made me sad i couldnt go. oh well. and she gave me my gift!! she got me an eeyore and a harry potter(DA) shirt! aww. went to do my homework then we went out for dinner with aunt elizabeth and her family. had japanese food. great! got more gifts from them. my bro got me another eeyore plush toy and keychain while aaron got me crush the turtle. aunt elizabeth gave me clothes too. so in all, i ve got 5 new plush toys and its starting to take space on my bed. i shall learn to share my bed once again. i'll post the pictures up. haha. went home and slept early that night since i got up 'early'.

so far, that is how my birthday went. tahnks for all those who wished me and sent me offline messages plus friendster messages!! really appreciate it! and i just have to name this very very special person whose record i think no one will break. To the very special Nemo(huihui!) who wished me 9 times in every way possible. =)) thanks so much! =))

okay, i ve got to go play my sims now. am addicted to it once again. who asked my parents to send it. haha. might not have school on monday since its individual appointments. =)) hoorays! 4 days of holiday. family's coming back tonight! gonna be noisy once again. but fun too!! will be catching harry potter on imax 3d tomorrow night. 10.45pm!! haha. thats the only time slot with unsold tickets. wahhaa. cant wait!!

okay, here's the plush toys.

Saturday, July 07, 2007
I WANT A HAMSTER!!! i dont know i just want one for company now and i miss my dear lil hamster who is gone because of heat stroke.


someone please get me a hamster. i'll get the accessories on my own. =))


but i know thats not gonna happen unless i ask them for permission to get a pet which lives on land and not water. *shrugs* i can just imagine a hamster running around in its cage now with a big house and tubes and toilet rolls and a wheel and blah blah blah. boo hoo.


nothing else to type now. im all alone at home with homework left undone. i only did a pathetic 4 questions of math leaving me with english worksheet on sentence structure, essay outline plus a paragraph on the essay. i cant believe im doing primary school work. well, not exactly but im boredddd. im feeling mean. im having the easy life while people back there are sufferring. =) off i go to watch more tv now.

(continued)

i know i said i'll continue the previous post 'tomorrow' but it so happened that my english is deteriorating and my tomorrow now means a few days later or even weeks.

ok so anyway, what made my legs more sore was the fact that we went shopping at vacaville. thats a 2 hr long drive away from home and we spent the time in the car blasting music from jon's new ipod nano. apparently, the frequency wast strong and we kept hearing music from other cars near us. it was soo funny we started yelling. we just turn into a crazy bunch of people when we're together. went to the outlets and all of them were having their summer sale. the clothes were hella cheap. clothes from gap, banana republic and j crew could go as low as 3/4 dollars with an additional 30% or more off. converting, it will mean 5 sin dollars or even less depending? where else can you get such a gd deal? =) bought tops only since i couldnt find any bottoms of my size. so i spent a total of thirty bucks(s$45) for 7 tops. now, america is not that expensive anymore aint it?

<-- it all depends on who 'your' is. haha. 2 of the tops i bought.

haha. went to have kfc for lunch and the chicken was sooo small! smaller than the size of your fist! so jon started going crazy again and said he'll throw his chicken back at the counter person. following that, everytime he was 'mad' at someone, he'll say he'll throw something at that person. so we all started coming up at phrases.joyce said she'll kick and punch, janet said she'll poke and i went bite. haha. hilarious. went to jelly belly factory after and bought harry potter jelly beans. threw the horrid flavors around on the street at each other and definitely caught some stares but who cares. we were having so much fun. walked around a while more and went to have dinner. decided at a japanese restaurant and the person asked if we wanted to sit at the table or at the roundabout thingy. we thought it didnt make a difference and said table so they gave us an a la carte menu and it was freaking expensive. we took so long to decide and other people started coming in and we overheard them saying there was all you can eat option if u sat at the conveying belt. since it was 'cheaper', we changed and had a competition to see who could eat the most. the one who ate the least had to foot the bill. duhh. jon won. he had 25+++ plates. we girls lost count after three so we just ate and didnt bother about the challenge. haha. it was actually done on purpose. was on our way back home when uncle jackson called and told us there was a fatal accident on bay bridge causing a long jam. luckily he told us in time. since we could probably get stuck in the jam for 1/2 hours, he told us not to go back yet. sooooo, we went to watch a movie!! totally unexpected. haha. drove round and round since we didnt know where the cinema was. watched ocean 13 and went home after. reached exactly at 12 midnight. on the dot. haha. yep. so that was practically our day then.

so much for 2 weeks ago. other than that, nothing pretty much happened. just that tehy left for florida on sat so im all alone now at home since i have school and cant tag along. sad. they'll be back on sun and straight after they'll leave for las vegas. when i said straight after, i really mean straight after. they'll be gone 2 hours after they come back home. joyce wont be going since she has work so at least i'll have company. :))) and being very nice people, they left me with a lot of chores to do. haha. feed her turtles, water the grass, bring in the papers/letters, bring out the garbage on monday night and bring it back in on tues and blah. but it really doesnt matter. haha.

well, school has been alright so far, hanging out with crazy people. class ended early a couple of days ago so we(me, mo and shirley) decided to get something to munch on in the cafe since our stomach's were growling one after another. got normal fries and garlic fries. sinful. talked and laughed A LOT. anyway, we ate till there was one of each fry left and the cleaner came to clear the table next to ours. there was a tiny gap between the two tables but thats not the point. he wanted to clear the crumbs and swept it but instead of sweeping it to the floor(which i guess he wasnt suppose to in the first place), the crumbs flew to out table. since we werent sure if the crumbs flew into the remaining fries, we started playing with it. so shirley was trying to squash the fry into the ketchup container-it was a pretty small container and i took the other fry and tied to poke it in there. losing her grip, the container flew and ketchup spilled on our table. it looked reallly horribly disgusting. haha. was laughing non stop and started to make fun of the cleaner like how he was going to sweep the ketchup onto the floor or probably seat. haha. mean. changed table and helped shirley with her essay for a while and left. that was last week.

NO SCHOOL TOMORROW!! double yays! since i had 2 classes tomorrow. its july 4th-independence day! haha. sadly, we still got homework though but still, its not a pile, sth which i used to have in the past. whahaas. im stress free!! not making you jealous though. =) anyways, i think 'grandma' is going to bring me out tomorrow so i guess i had better complete my homework now. till next time, toodles!!!

i've got a webcam and so has nemo!! i get to see her now!! hahahaha. come online when you see this and message me!!

ps. i think im going to spend my birthday ALONE this year! bahh. this never happens. i want my usual bbq, swimming in the pool and my haagen daaz cake!!

harry potter is coming out soonn!!! gonna watch it with joyce in imax theatres on the coming friday!! plus, we're gonna queue for the book at midnight! fun fun!! life cant get any better...
