Cheer up and dry your damp eyes and tell me when it rains, And I'll blend up that rainbow above you and shoot it through your veins.
HAPPY :)
Thursday, February 26, 2009/ 9:34 PM
Yay I feel so... HAPPY!
Sometimes I feel really sad and empty and sometimes, like now, I feel like every thing's going right :)
Like, it's just really little seemingly insignificant things that make me really really happy.
:D
The girl who plays Bella in Twilight is dropping out of the movies because she doesn't want to be part of a multi million dollar movie, and wants to do more "indie" stuff. -_-
Then the director or producer said that she wasn't all that great, so they wouldn't really miss her. Sad.
But not that I care, I don't even like Twilight. I don't like shows about... vampires. Sorry to all you Twilight lovers, I know there are a lot of you...
Anyway, today there was LEADERSHIP TRAINING! Woo. Hoo.
I can't believe they actually let us play Quack.
:)
Tennis training today was pretty fun. We played DOUBLES!
Me + Lizzie vs. Julia + Nichole - Lost 6-2 :(
Me + Sarah vs. Julia + Nichole - Didn't finish, but were leading 2-1, I think
Me + Julia vs. Nichole + Nee Yen - WON! 6-1 :)
Then at the end we had to do team run, but luckily only 4 rounds, since it was already like 5 and everyone had to go. Then on the last round, we had to make it in 1 min 20 s. WE MADE IT IN 1 MIN 19 S!!!! :D
Ooh American Idol's on tonight right? YAY! But I prefer watching the auditions, because they're so much funnier! Now everyone's all good and stuff, and it's not so fun anymore. But still, I love it! Oh, but I hope the Nick/Norman guy stays in. Although he will NEVER win, he's still funny :)
Hmm what else? I guess I could talk about CTs, but I don't really feel like it... I'll just say that today was a good day in school and that common tests have been okay, except for history, which was hard-ish.
Yup :D
Something really weird happened today...
I found a box of grapes and a glass of water in the back room. That was really weird. :S Freaky. Maybe it's a sign! ... that I should eat more fruits and drink more water?
Hey our tournament is starting NEXT FRIDAY!! EE I'm so excited... I hope I get to play doubles! :D
I love tennis tournament because we can skip school to play tennis and have lots of fun :D
YAY I can't wait. HYPERHYPERHYPER!!
UPDATE!
It's SATURDAY now! And I'm skipping spex for the third week in a row.
Studying for Physics and Chinese. Two of my least favourite subjects. Which also happen to be the ones I'm worst at.
Common Tests are almost over though!! 2 MORE DAYS! 3 MORE PAPERS!
Lit test was so not what I expected. I expected like, "What is the style of writing of Flowers for Algernon?" or "What is the setting of Flowers for Algernon?". But instead, they gave us this: "How many times did Charlie win on the first occasion he beat Algernon?"
So it was all from memory.
Thank goodness I read it 5 times.

Wednesday, February 25, 2009/ 7:49 PM
HEY!
Tomorrow's my birthday! And I'm sad because it's right in the middle of common tests :(
We watched ANNIE in music today! The girl isn't ugly!! She's kind of cute, actually.
Oh and today was ENGLISH and GEOG! Not too bad, I guess...
And there was TENNIS today! But I didn't get to play cos they were still playing round robin :( only got to play a bit at the end... then it rained AGAIN!!
Before that me, Sarah, Lizzie and Nichole went to the library to study, but ended up not studying at all. So I had to come home and cram. :(
OH AND TODAY LAO SHI CAME IN AND SPOKE IN ENGLISH!!! HAHA hilarious. But I feel kind of sorry for him. Everyone laughs. But still!
Ok, I'm gonna watch TV now, so byeeeee!
"Remain absolute silent!"

Friday, February 20, 2009/ 6:25 PM
MG lost today to Nanyang in the semis.
Sad. :(
The umpires were kind of blur.
And biased.
Annoying! :(
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyway, I HAVEN'T PLAYED TENNIS IN SO LONG! I played on Wednesday, which isn't a long time ago, BUT I didn't play yesterday, and it's raining today, so i can't play today, AND there's another match on Monday (missing more school!), so I'm not gonna play then either! So i wouldn't have played tennis for like a WEEK! Then
again, maybe it'll stop raining, so maybe I can play later :)
...
It hasn't stopped raining :(
Hey is anyone going for FUSION today? I kind of wanted to go, but I'm feeling really lazy. The rain is pouring outside and I've been home the whole day and I just ate chocolate :)
GO AND SEE PHOTOS OF CAROLYN ON FACEBOOK! Sarah took them at B div semis.
She looks so beautifully unglam :)
I know I haven't been posting much this week, so here's what's been happening!
MONDAY!
History with Ho. I feel kind of sorry for him. Poor guy.
Geog: Mrs Chong spent a REALLY REALLY long time talking about how she can't sew. Or was this on Tuesday?...
TUESDAY!
Eh. Normal day.
Actually, I can't really remember what happened on Tuesday.
WEDNESDAY!
SUPER FUN! Played friendly match with B Div. Partnered Lizzie for 1st set, then Nichole for the 2nd set. Lost the first set 6-1, WON the 2nd set
6-3. :)
Oh Coach was really mad because we were late. So he made us run one round around the track in 1 min 15s. We didn't make it. 1 min 20s. Still didn't make it. ONEMINUTE. Missed it by 5 seconds. After this round, Coach just stopped us and made us play.
But despite that, IT WAS STILL FUN! We
went to Macs before it and made a sign for the B div. (At the bottom)
THURSDAY!
Again, pretty normal. Saw Faith <3
FRIDAY!
BDIV semis! It was FUN! We left class early, so I missed BIO and MATH and GEL!
We had lunch at McDonalds! (Again)
Even though they lost, it was still fun :)
But sad.

CINELEISURE!
FOOD! We had dinner at Pepper Lunch! :)
Lizzie looks weird :)
I went to TAKA AND CINELEISURE with Sarah, Debbie, Lizzie and Carolyn to shop and take neoprints! Yay superfun :)
First, Lizzie and Carolyn came to my house, then we met Sarah and Debbie at TAKA! Then we had dinner at PEPPER LUNCH! YUMMY YUMMY!!! Carolyn had no idea what to order, so she got the same thing as me and ended up eating the rice while me and Sarah ate her beef.
Then CINELEISURE! We didn't have much time there because we took more than an hour to eat dinner. But it was really FUN! But I really hate how everything is in Japanese, so we can't understand and some of them were kinda screwed up. But still fun :)
Then we went to TAKA again to shop! I bought a Blizzard from DQ. BETTER than McFlurry! But more expensive... :(
Then we went to Fox and KinokuniyA. Kinokuniya for Carolyn to buy food erasers. -_-
Then we had to go!! So sad. We had so little time! But we can go next time when it's not Valentine's Day and when there aren't so many couples at the neoprint place taking photos of themselves!
"It's a prepaid card!"
HAHAH it's still funny :)
Stay tuned for 100 Truths quiz in the next post! :)

when she was trying to prove that her cookie, which she had dropped on the floor, wasn't broken.
Ooh Dr William Tan is still going round and round our track, trying to set a record for a 24-hour marathon. He must have gone like a million rounds by now. Yesterday, we saw him arrive during training. Cool :) The cart that he is pulling also looks a lot smaller than I imagined it to be. No way would I be able to fit inside.
Oh training was pretty fun yesterday! Except that Charmaine beat Debbie and is now definitely on the team. But IT'S OK DEBBIE! YOU'LL GET IN BY THE NEXT ROUND! :D
Me, Sarah, Lizzie, Julia, Nichole and Alicia played doubles! There were 3 people on each team, then two play one game, then after the game, one person moves out and the other comes in! My team (Sarah and Lizzie) won 9-5!
This morning when I woke up I felt really sad and empty.
But now I'm really really really HAPPY! I often get these weird mood swings. Like yesterday.
Oh and later I'm going to CINELEISURE!
YAY

Cows and oranges and cuteness!
Sunday, February 8, 2009/ 1:11 PM
Hey you know the Moove Media cows that are by the side of almost every road in singapore?
The ones that have chinese words on them for chinese new year?
Apparently people have been stealing them. More than 200 Moove cows have been stolen!
HAHA!
So today was Orange Blessing! That's the thing my church has every CNY. The cells are divided into blocks, then we get oranges and go to the Dover community to give out oranges! I was with Deanne and 2 adults. The two adult said all the stuff and me and Deanne just gave them the oranges. I think it was last last year when I was with Deanne too. There was one guy who, after hearing that we were from a church, didn't want the oranges, but then his wife saw cute little Deanne and was like, "Aiyah, let the little girl give her oranges lah." Then they gave Deanne an ang bao!!
Then after Orange Blessing we went to eat lunch at the hawker centre nearby. I had prata :)
My parents' friends were there too and they have a 1 year old daughter called Rachel. She's so cute! Much like someone else who shares her name...
Anyway, while everyone was eating, she kept trying to do splits, and when she fell or didn't manage to do it, she'd giggle and smile and try again. ^^ Then she went into the men's bathroom! hahaha that was pretty funny.

Friday, February 6, 2009/ 5:46 PM
I'M BAAACK! Yes I haven't posted in ages... too much homework :(
So today there was tennis! I didn't need to go, since I'm not even playing round robin and Coach wasn't even gonna be there, but I went anyway and I'm glad I did :) It was fun!!
Scores:
(Winner in bold)
Sarah vs. Nee Yen - 9-5
Alicia vs. Julia - 9-7
Nichole vs. Sonja - 9-3
Carolyn vs. Charmaine - not finished yet because it rained ... still TIEBREAK!
Congrats to people who won and sorry for those who didn't. Julia and Alicia's match was really close! So hard to watch! Alicia is SO CONSISTENT! Scary.
Oh I'm happy because I'm only umpiring for one more day (Wednesday)! So I can go for training on Monday! But I really hope Alison doesn't sms me at the last minute to tell me that I'm umpiring. That would be sad... :(
Actually I thought the results of the round robin would be really clear, and that our predictions would be right. But... the scores have been weird. Now I seriously have no idea whatsoever who is going to make it into the team. I have a rough idea, but it's still hard to tell.
At about 4.20, it started raining, so we all had to stop playing. Then me, Julia, Sarah, Nichole, Debbie and Alicia went inside to play netball/ captain's ball! Then Julia called Lizzie and they were talking and suddenly Julia was like "Huh? How you know?!" Then we looked towards Maplewoods and Lizzie was in her balcony jumping and waving to us. Haha. Then she came down to play with us. But she didn't bring drinks and sweets like we asked her to. :(
Anyway...
Today during recess I FINISHED THE MATHS ALTERNATIVE ASSESSMENT! YAY! It turned out really ugly because I cut it out funny, but at least we finished. :)
...
Ever since the Powerpuff Girls' "Love Makes the World Go Round" was played during chapel, it has been STUCK IN MY HEAD! Also, probably a lot of other people, considering the amount of people I have heard singing it. But it's really really CUTE! Especially the parts where Bubbles sings :)
Go watch it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zQgKk3g7Uo
Too cute too cute too cute!
K, I really need to bathe now. Yay I finally posted! And I have cell group tonight!!
Happiness.

OH MY GOODNESS the little girl from The Little Nyonya REALLY LOOKS LIKE MY BUDDY!!! I BET SHE IS MY BUDDY! SHE LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE HER!
Like it really really really looks like her. If it isn't her, then she has like a long-lost twin or something. Cool. :)
It probably isn't lah. But it's cool how she looks exactly like her.
Oh Federer lost yesterday... to Nadal :(
And he cried at the end... T^T
