today had to rush home frm sch cos got tuition. after tuition dear little claudia ang went wif me to the bk shop! but the stupid shop dun even have a bloody photocopying machine. wah lan. i do NOT understand it. how could bk shops not have photocopying machines?!! the sch bk shop worse sia. last yr until now the stupid machine spoil den still haven't fix. wah lan.



so in the end had to walk all the way to serangoon central. claudia ang came too, after much whining frm me (courtesy of shih yann). she bought me the 17 mag! oh, & Cadbury Mochacino chocs as well. now i owe her $4. sobbb~ damn broke already lah.


den on the way back, i was juz looking innocently ahead of me (cos i was walking; obviously ppl look ahead while walking, if not look at the sky meh.) & dis guy, dunno how old, abt 18--20++, walked past my view (no idea wat dis is called). den obviously he tot i was looking at him, den he smiled. not friendly smile, but.. dunno wat kinda smile lah. after dat he walked past a wall, den when the wall wasn't blocking him, he was STILL smiling! wth. & he even threw an empty plastic bag in the air & caught it, still smiling away at me. wah, catch plastic bag, wat a HUGE achievement. i was like, 'huh??' at first, den later, 'wateva!'


i really dun get guys ok. the ones dat u wan to notice u wun give a damn no matter wat u do, & those dat u dun wanna see/dun even NOE, seem to pay close attention, no matter wat u DUN do.


taken frm this mth's & last mth's 17:

Signs That He's Interested In You:

• he makes eye contact--not just a glance, but more like a short, intense stare to get your attention.
• if he's vocal when in a group, he tends to shower more attention on you than anyone else, mainly because he wants to get to know you better.
• if he's the shy sort, he at least tries to open up communication channels in a subtle way by doing more than saying--such as getting you a drink or offering to help even when you may not need it.
• he faces you during communication and uses a lot of gestures showing that he's involved and open.
• he recently asked one of your friends whether you were interested in anyone.
• he usually catches your eye, smiles and say "hello". he also usually takes the opportunity to strike up a friendly conversation.
• he's proactively added you on his list of online friends, and immediately included you in his group e mails when you gave him your e mail address.

i have no idea how true these are, ok. some of them, not so true. like the last one. so wat if he proactively added you on his list? other guys proactively added me oso wat. does dat mean dey like me oso. LAME, pls. oh, yeah, & the 2nd last one. maybe he's juz being friendly.

oh, & the 1st one. maybe he was juz staring your way, or staring at someone behind you, not AT you. how can anyone be sure, anyway??? jeez.

haven't been blogging. dere really isn't much to blog abt.


went back to Wheelock Place again with li zhen. FINALLY my earphones could be replaced. the indian guy WAS right, after all! maybe Apple isn't dat bad. but luckily i didn't see the stupid chao ah beng. if not....



besides, even if i saw him i doubt i would have recognized him. although i can remember faces, or wat mother ang calls a "photographic memory" like father ang, i will not remember faces like dat chao ah beng. selective memory.


den after dat went wif li zhen to far east, cos we wanted to eat at long john. i hereby announce dat long john's fries r the best, so is their chilli. she bought 2 earrings.


den went to bugis. li zhen wanted to buy a bag. & she told me dat she wanted to buy a haversack cos her shoulder very pain after carrying all those tote bags & sling bags. & den in the end she bought another puma tote bag. -_-"



sob. i was damn broke, so didn't buy anyting. didn't see anyting i wanted anyway. but it wasn't really a wasted trip, cos my baby's earphones r replaced. wahahahaha.


oh yeah. before dat went to NYP. our guide was DAMN nice to bully sia. saw on his name tag dat his name was Lim Kian Hong. beatrice was mad. she kept telling him dat ying ying wanted his number! OMG. we had a talk in a lecture hall i tink. darren had to go & sing songs cos he joined campus superstar!!!! WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. the host kept asking him to sing zhou jie lun's songs & me, who was fiddling wif the video cam cos jie sheng dey all wanted to tape darren singing, said, "wah lau, dun insult jay chou lah." rather loudly. den beatrice & agi went, "wahhhh..."


ok fine.


anyway it's a fact wat.



den later went to the nursing & business blk all dat. until now i still dunno wat course i want. all the courses dat seem interesting have to go JC first den later go back to poly & do the course. wat a waste of time.


didn't even go to see other courses. i tink xavier has given up his plan of going to the nursing course, which is wat i heard frm li zhen.


dey kept making us walk up & down. so HOT sia. their air con like no air con one.



& i gave-or rather forced my goodie bag onto james. he was nice to help me carry it all the way. after dat other ppl starting piling their goodie bags on him. oops. nvm lah, take it as a sort of training for him for his future wife. :D

jaslin chew wanted to buy someting so i went wif her. i bought a Maybelline eyeliner! oso bought the stupid CME textbk which the stupid bk shop doesn't have cos it's bloody out of stock for so many bloody days already. i honestly tink the CME book is such a waste of money. last yr only use for a few times. waste paper oso.



went home & tested my eyeliner on my right eye. chew said i looked very different, like a goth, like the Mindfreak guy. wat's his name? criss angel izit? dun care. she oso said made my eye look bigger. & fiercer, she added.
which is good.


den later when we were bored i invented a stupid game & den she kept believing dat the results were true. which is totally not true ok. it was juz a coincidence. IT IS, OK, she is saying now. IT IS TRUE OK.


watever! it is so not true. like i said, it is juz a COINCIDENCE.


lalalala.



"I'm still holding on but I don't know if there is anything to hold onto."

oh MAN! i guess i really AM getting sicker by the second.


yesterday mother ang gave me a double dose of medicine, but it still doesn't help. i mean, it helped for ONE night, den today i still have a very super sore throat, a blocked nose, & to add on, blocked ears. as in, dere's air in ur ears & u can't hear properly. someting like dat lah.



but today i still went for the band performance for the sec 1 orientation. & i tell u, dat was the worst performance i've ever heard. to make it worse, si on (who was conducting) made it SO damn obvious dat we were playing badly cos after the song he made dat jiat lat face & rubbed his face wif his hands dat means "OMG we played so badly i am so embarrased wat now??"



i felt like killing him then.



but obviously i didn't.


i only saw a few CCAs. in the hall i saw the dance club, den on the 1st floor saw NCC wif their boring old routine, scattering leaves all over the floor & sort of ambushing ppl. saw red cross oso. can't believe i wanted to join red cross last time. luckily i didn't, cos sundaram is one of the teachers-in-charge. brrrrrr.



& today during english, judy tan said to write reflectionsfor hw! & she said, "some of u have blogs, rite? sometimes u blog abt how ur day was... so if u prefer to give me an online version also can, but u'll have to give me ur url."



YEAH, RITE! over my dead body.



i'd rather write until my hand hurts like hell than to give her my blog add.




"I don't have to talk to you to be happy, because every time I see you it makes my day complete."

i had a nice little walk home frm the interchange in the rain & now i am sicker. how wonderful.


but i do not care. I WILL HOLD OUT UNTIL THE PERFORMANCE TOMORROW. my nose is itching like hell; my throat is getting drier by the second. honey drink does not help. not when it's diluted honey, anyway.



today it was even colder than usual. i was ALMOST freezing, but not yet. yeah lah, exaggerating lah.


but still. it was damn cold. I was damn cold. unfortunately i do not have the habit of bringing a jacket to sch. so inconvenient.


my right calf muscle oso pain sia. dunno y. IF dis was the SARS period maybe i'd tink i have SARS. gasp!! dun tell me bird flu???? :x


the feeling of wanting to sneeze, but yet not being able to sneeze is terrible.



i called the Apple Software Support today to ask abt wat to do wif my baby, since i lost the warranty receipt & all. the indian man on the other line was very nice, although sometimes i couldn't hear wat he was saying wif his thick indian accent & fast speech.


LUCKILY I STILL CAN GET THE EARPHONES REPLACED!! thank goodness for the serial number. heh heh heh. my baby is warrantied (is dere even such a word??) to nov 2006! wahahahaha.


i bet tomorrow it'll be cold & rainy & i'll get more sick.



"We always love what we can't have, and don't take advantage of what's staring us in the face."

i tink i am gonna be sick soon. my throat is DAMN pain, my nose is DAMN itchy, & i am DAMN sleepy, thanx to my would-be cold.


today jaslin finally got angry. BUT it wasn't because i was irritating her. it was bcos of another thing... which i dunno & dun tink i can say bcos she'll kill me.


& i was late for the 1st time in 2006! this date must be remembered. bcos sch reopened not long ago den late already. thanx to my shoes. my left foot had a healing blister frm monday & den rested on tues. den after dat when i wore those shoes again, the blister opened up again, & the tip of my left sock was stained wif blood. :s so in the end couldn't walk properly, & as a result became late. poor limo oso was late bcos of me! :x



& during band i got irritated bcos

1) my throat was so damn pain & i couldn't play properly.
2) we were playing stupid boring Twist & Shout for the millionth time. (i honestly do not understand y ong likes dis stupid boring song so much. no taste sia)
3) si on already gave the signal to bring up our instruments but other ppl were still toking. besides, put 1 dunno how many kgs of horn on ur leg u noe very pain or not.dere r lines on my leg already.


so in the end, i felt irritation welling up.... & i snapped. at xerxes.


"BAND MAJOR, CAN U STOP TOKING OR NOT??"


oops.


he looked shocked dat i was kinda shouting at him.


later i felt kinda bad, but.. too bad. anyway he WAS toking so much. & i tot he was angry at me. i would be, if i were him.


den after dat i was sulking away by myself. den after like dunno how long (or short) later, he went, "araxes, wat happened? mood swing ah?"



AWWWWW. :)




to tink dat he is still not mad at me & still so... uh.. dunno wat's the word lah. but watever.



& nicholas came back to band! ong put him in the TUBA section!!!! can u believe it?!! frm percussion to tuba sia. but it's not like such a great loss. anwyay percussion is the worst section in the whole band. not only i say hor, other ppl oso got say lor.


& he was a fast learner. so fast can play the wole scale correctly. hidayat was busy praising himself for his "good teaching skills." firdaus said nicholas oso could read the tuba notes already! didn't noe he was such a fast learner leh. :p


den after learning frm hidayat nicholas came back in & so i went to tok to him abt his playing. it was a huge jump frm percussion to tuba ok. & dat idiotic zhijie said i was FLIRTING!!!!
