Thursday, September 19, 2002 03:31 p.m. My lips are stained a berry red, a tangy sweetness of fresh strawberries. Reclining on my old swivel chair, I feel strangely uncomfortable. My skin is a tell-tale sign of all that lack of sleep(i'm nothing without coffee, really) and the intense hours of scribbling to beat the clock. E maths and geography today- with just a couple of papers left. Currently, my chemistry books beckon me to study, or risk failure tomorrow. What a boring entry, I think I'm capable of inducing sleep even in myself. Anyhow. This is getting nowhere, and the elegy of death from my results is drumming cruelly in my mind, mocking me for my incapabilities. This is not it, it can't be.

girl fiction: tis an arduous task to speak as such,

How mortifying! ;)
Sunday, September 15, 2002 11:21 p.m. :) Went for Daryl's parent's silver (that is, 25th) anniversary dinner tonight. I thought the entire thing was really sweet. Hehe, they're such a cute couple :) :) Anyway, I had this annoying headache throughout the weekend, but after a long and sinful nap this afternoon, it seems to have disappeared. Certainly not good to fall ill in the midst of one's examinations. Uhuh. Oh yes! After so many years, I actually bought a dress. It's from Urban & Co and it's really sweet, feminine and just plain pretty! Not very "me", but it's cute nonetheless. Oh well, yeah. Fantastic night. :)
Friday, September 13, 2002 11:55 p.m. We popped by the Esplanade to check out it's new arts library this evening. I loved it! It's a really nice and cosy place to lounge around and read, especially when there's couches and a lovely view, no less. There was even a little jazz performance and this guy was singing Autumn Leaves! Curious, because I was just listening to it's French version this afternoon. A few vcds caught my eye and I'll be looking forward to borrowing them soon after my examinations. Can't wait! I even spotted Edward Scissorshand! I adored this movie as a kid and it evoked some tears back then. Others were A Midsummer Night's Dream and Beetlejuice! Who could ever forget Beetlejuice! That movie was so eccentric, so creepy and so entertaining all at the same time! Fantastic, I say! :)
It was delighting, wasn't it? We sat at the riverside, basking in the moonlight, enjoying a tête-à-tête. ;) But that's all you'll hear from me, so. Had a Kenny Rogers dinner, which I swear tasted divine when I was a kid. I used to go fanatic over the cheese macaroni. Now, it's like, ordinary. Well. I'm at home now and I ought to take off my lenses because they're hurting my eyes so. I keep blinking like a retard.
Friday, September 13, 2002 03:54 p.m. i am sitting here in my dim room, with the occasional wisp of wind bringing faint drops of rain onto my skin. the drizzle outside is soft and gentle, taming the troubled heart and satisfying the parched soul. as i try to make form of the mess of words in my mind, i gaze outside, only to notice that the rain has thus ended. the sky now boasts a bright countenance , and my eyes start to sting, whether due to the change in light, or due to lethargy i do not know. neither do i understand why i'm here, stringing a jumble of words into incoherent sentences, when i would be much better off taking a siesta. because afterall, i've only had half of my usual hours of sleep for the past few days. how alarming.

when the day is done
when the night is cold
When the day is done. A certain sweetness lingers in the cool night's air. A perfect time for a little indulgence, a little relaxation, but alas.... woe is me. I love rainy nights. Except when I'm wearing my pair of slippers with absolutely no friction. Was saved by a shoe today! :)
Wednesday, September 4, 2002 10:57 p.m. I think I've got the coolest mum :D I can actually wear some of the clothes she wore when she was 20, without looking like I've just walked out of the set of 'Growing Up'. (except maybe for those shoulder-padded tops, hohoho!) You know how fashion always recycles itself? Exactly that. She has like all these trunks of clothes, leather & velvet jackets, slinky dresses and what not. And I enjoy going through them once in a while. I found this really pretty black skirt and it fits me like a glove! :) Anyway, I bought a cute pair of black heels today. It reminds me of the old sequinned pair that broke. Plus it was relatively cheap. Anyway, I was being quite a grouch throughout dinner. Being cooped up in a bomb shelter for an entire day can't be a good thing. Oh yeah, I also tried the M)phosis heels. *drool* :D Don't know if it matches the gown as yet, so, we'll see. I wonder why I keep going on and on about shopping. I need retail therapy, that's one thing for sure. :D
Monday, September 2, 2002 12:12 a.m. Burkes & Sanuk Thai have closed down! Man I'm gonna miss my honey chicken! Pity, those were *SO* good. Honey dripping down the fork and all. *licks lips* Another one bites the dust it seems.. all these eating places keep closing down. Bah, I need intense moisturisation. Feeling very dehydrated. Anyway, we had a Viet dinner instead. (Mum's birthday today) Lotsa veggie. Had rice rolls and vermicelli. Had them in thailand and lurvedd them. Best part was the 'banana in a blanket'. Mm, yum, love dessert. Backtrack a little- had lunch with relatives. Played the role of babysitter, and boy were my cousins chaotic. They're so easily amused and they spout so much nonsense! Bah. Okay, one week break is here. "Break". Feeling a bit retarded though. Been spending too much time under my blanket, dreaming the world away. So many things I wanna do! Continue my French classes, do something about my two left feet, take better photographs, buy mary janes, travel the world, take photos in a colosseum, gaze at the effiel tower from below, write for a fashion/lifestyle/culture/travel magazine, learn how to cook italian dishes, continue piano lessons, meet up with old friends, ice skate on real ice.... hmm. And so much more I could think up of. :)
Friday, August 30, 2002 10:33 p.m. Grabbed almost every opportunity to enjoy my last day of fun at school. Really, it's so strange, we grow up, we change and we evolve so much, but yet we don't realize it till we look back upon the years. Anyway, although I'm not really close to 3/4 of my class, they're really such fun people. (FAITH!) Ha, okay. And we went trigger happy, snapping away with our cameras. We also went fanatical over glitter, smearing it all over our hair and bodies. Not me though, I didn't really fancy the idea of all the trouble in getting it off later. (oops, hehe!) Had yummy chicken rice for lunch and took really bad quality neoprints. (one where only my eyes can be seen, queer!) Haha, we're so teenybopperish, and do I love it! I just want to bounce around and sing really stupid songs and be happy forever. I am soo gonna regret saying this, because it makes me sound like a total airhead, but who cares! Lounged around at Borders afterwhich, reading my favourite girlygirl mags while waiting for Daryl. Took an *incredibly* long bus ride, but was greatly entertained and amused, so I guess that made up for it. And so did the prata! Cheesseee prata to be exact. I'm such a sucker for cheese! Cheese is so good and so fattening. Bummer! Anyway, just got home. Yes, it has been a rather long day, albeit a memorable and enjoyable one. The only negative aspect of today is.. I actually feel a little guilty for all the fun I had. Wow.
Thursday, August 29, 2002 10:00 p.m. It's strange that my secondary school days are almost over. I realize that I have very little memory of my school days. Guess I was too much of a dreamer, caught up in my own little bubble. But it doesn't matter now, well hardly anything does, or so I'm supposed to believe. Cause the prelims are here, and somehow, just somehow, I must will myself to look ahead and strive harder. Because truly, the only stumbling block before me is myself and wouldn't it be such a pity if I find myself at the losing end just because I lacked the determination to pull myself together? I only have a week left, and it doesn't help that I feel so far away from what I would want to achieve. Okaay, I wonder where that came from. So many things have changed within this 4 years. It truly is through God's grace I've come thus far. I'm no one significant, no one worth a second look, but I could have been far worse, considering all the trash I was in. So yeah, I'm thankful.
It's boycott uniforms day as well as teachers day at school tomorrow. Hurray hurrah. How terribly exciting. It's totally dumb though, we aren't allowed to wear sandals/slips. I have to wear my capris with SHOES! Gross. I swear the heads in the school have totally zilch fashion sense!
Thursday, August 22, 2002 07:08 p.m. What a drag. Terrible weak, really. Shall attempt to write a mini materialistic wishlist. (to take my mind off work, for a while) Don't mind me!
lllllethargic, that's how I feel right now! Well, dinner's calling.
Friday, August 16, 2002 11:13 p.m. What do you know.. I'm still alive! (Albeit totally exhausted) Was freezing my butt off at the main National Library today. They've got like the wiiiideest range of books, not forgetting special edition magazines, which being the magazine junkie that I am, totally adore! I doubt that I'm making any sense right now because even as I type this, my eyelids are getting significantly heavier with each press on the keyboard. An unknown force is taking over me.. and.. I..cannot...resist...it.
I'm daft. (ok so i stole your word, SO?!)
Sunday, August 11, 2002 10:56 p.m. Hmm.
Wednesday, August 7, 2002 08:50 p.m. Can you say "two juicy chicken patties special mayo lettuce cheese on a toasted sesame seed bun" in one breath, in just a little over 3 seconds? I discovered my hidden talent today, and thanks to the good people at Macdonald's, I got a free choco-cone. Anyone who desires a choco-cone should look for me, cause, man, I'm so good I kick Eminem's ass. But then again, it's Eminem. That aside.. I was attempting to do some math sums in the void deck of a HDB flat today, when I heard someone playing the saxophone from afar off. Pretty captivating, especially when your entire mind revolved around solving inane mathematical equations.
Tuesday, August 6, 2002 10:04 p.m. Tonight was interesting, not half as bad as I thought it would be, but interesting nonetheless. Well, I'm actually going to watch tv now. How amazing is that, I haven't watched tv for like the longest time!! I'm such a geek, I'm starting to love it, minus the good results of course. I'm a geek, but still an idiot. So. I think I've had too much coffee/lattes/hot chocs in the past few days.
Saturday, August 3, 2002 01:38 a.m.
Tonight really perked up my otherwise gloomy week at school. Thankkk eww. OooOO. Stila is FINALLY in S'pore!! I love Stila cause their 'models' are just tooo cute, so are the products. Even if I'll never use them, it's so fun to look and play around with! Pretty colours and all. Well, certainly can't wait for the end of next week! Something's brewing up, baby! ;) Anyway, wow. Hope this cheerfulness lasts, been feeling kinda in the dumps lately.
Thursday, August 1, 2002 04:19 p.m. my heart speaks in a language i cannot understand.
Tuesday, July 30, 2002 09:59 p.m. i lie to myself with promises as empty war shells buried. vulnerable, like a young child would. let's play pretend, live in fairy tale naivety, watch the nights sweep along slowly, wait, as our hearts dissolve like rain. i fear that i might implode, my bones, collapsing into each other, till i can finally rest in the arms of sweet surrender.
.. how else can i explain myself...
Monday, July 29, 2002 11:01 p.m. and the sky is dark again the malady of sleep, and the lack thereof.
Sunday, July 28, 2002 10:08 p.m. Just watched Father Of The Bride, and am listening to The Way You Look Tonight, taken from it's soundtrack. Her wedding was SOOOOOOO lovely :) I can't wait to get married, ho ho ho! This is so outrageous... I should stop fantasizing :)
Friday, July 26, 2002 10:17 p.m. 3Ms, really.
Thursday, July 25, 2002 07:03 p.m. After a week (or so) of hibernation, cramming for the horrid revision tests, Ping & I decided to spoil ourselves (totally well deserved, may I add) a little today. And man, it felt spankin' good! ;) There was, Jap noodles for lunch, Haagen Dazs ice cream (caramel cone explosion for me!) for dessert, a totally cute patch & pin for our bags & of course, a really kick ass teeshirt! We even took a snazzy neoprint to commemorate the day! Can we say FANTASTIC? It might sound like I'm exaggerating, but you'll understand why we acted in this manner when you realize that we're victims of the big O (noo, the other one! heh) this year. Sorry if you didn't get the big O joke ;) Ha. Well, that aside...
The horrendous number of tests per week (or day even!) is sapping almost all of what's left of me. I bet like 99% of the sec4 population (at least in my crazy school) is mugging their butts off. Whooops? I'm so dissatisfied with myself right now. BUT, I shall not spoil my mood with all this trash.. so, that's that!
