Finally found

For over 50 years, ASICS has produced high quality, technically innovative sports and fitness products. The name, ASICS, is an acronym from the Latin phrase, "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano", which translates simply to "a sound mind in a sound body."

Cool. I trust their products. They're the most comfortable sports shoes I've ever tried on. But they cost a bomb. I bought mine at $243. But I see the prices going down quite a bit for some models. Mine has yet to. If it goes down, I'll probably get the same one again. Lol. That's how much I love the shoe. It's as light as air, has good support etc. It may not look very good, but who cares! Sometimes you gotta sacrifice looks for comfort and performance. (:

I've discovered that when you're looking for something, you never find it. The converse is true. I was looking for a bag today, but instead I found a shoe which I gave up looking for. And couldn't find the bag. Why does life have to be so...complicated? Tsk.

Went back to school to play squash with Cherene. I was feeling really lethargic. No energy whatsoever. Ate my Quaker S'mores, still no effect. Went to the gym after that for about 45 min? My legs are so flabby. HAHA. Not very la, but still, not as nice as they used to be when I was still fencing. I used to be able to do lunges so effortlessly. Now I struggle after a few. Man, oh man. Since we've gotta pay $10 a month for sports complex fees, we should really utilise it. I don't understand those people who pay and don't use it. I mean if you're on FA then of course, who cares! It's such a waste if you don't use it.
Anyway, saw Mr Sim Eng Chee gyming. I nodded at him and he nodded back. I tend to greet teachers. It's a habit already. The point is to be courteous. But then again, most of the time the teachers don't reciprocate. Oh well...

I saw the DM at Starbucks just now too. He looks so stern. He wore NF skinnies. Haha. So hip! LOL. Andrea said he looked like he was carrying a Prada bag which had a ribbon on it. Imagine that...

Some girl shoplifted just now. Saw security checking her bag while her guy friends stood at the corner looking on. Tsk. What's happening to the youths of today?! Lol. How dumb.

Crumpler backpack costs $265. -.- WHY?! Holy crap! How long must I save for that? Forget it. I will never starve myself for anything.

I live to eat. (:

Shawty

Shawty is a girl. She may not be short, then again she might be.
When you say the word "shawty", you gotta say it like you ain't a Singaporean. Or it'll sound like "shorty". Right, py?
Shawty got them apple bottom jeans. NOT Shorty got them apple bottom jeans.
I tried to "spoof" the song. PCK version of "Low". Imagine that. I did it quite loudly also. I hope no one heard it!

I don't know what happened. But I said "Where have you been all my life?" randomly when I was with py. I'm not talking about py obviously. I don't know what hit me. But I said it. And I told her that she say that to MOMO ren. I didn't know it was a song from Westlife. So that means I've got the chops to be a songwriter too! So py asked me to write a song. But it has to include the following:
1) Where have you been all my life?
2) We were meant to be.
.
.
.
.
Shawty?!
It cannot be. Cos shawty is a girl. Means I'm not straight?! LOL. Then again, "Shawty is a killa. But I really want him."
IT'S SO WRONG!

Yes. I will write that song. But it will sound ridiculous. But before that...

Gotta do my EoM. Damn PW!

Eyes wide shut

I hate it. I can hardly keep my eyes open now. It was on for more than 12 hours!!!
Ya la. I'm lame, I am a retard. It doesn't mean that I have a lot of money to spare.

Woo! Today is the day that I will remember I scored 2 fantastic goals. Soccer rocks. And the teacher was so shocked. Peiyi told me that he asked the guys how come they let a girl score the first goal. LOL. I AM NOT A MAN.
But I have never kicked like a girl before.
Keep the ball waist down. But he freaking kicked it straight into my face. *^%*$)(# Damn pissed off. If I had the temper of a certain soccer star then I would have been sent off already.

I did my tutorials! But I didn't bring my foolscap pad to school. -.- How dumb.

Ponning CIP tomorrow. Anyway, Yi Shi not going and I'd be alone again. So I shall go search town for it.

Randomly went to town with Jennifer today. They don't have the colour I want. Wasted! Considering buying online. Didn't find anything I wanted today. Walking around in town is so damn tiring. I don't like it. Especially with my bag which is at least 4 kg, all balanced on one shoulder. Gonna break already.

HAHA. I passed my chinese! 101/160. So shocking. I thought I screwed up that paper too. Guess not. I guess my luck was pretty good. My random answers were correct. (:

PY! I never said life sucks. I said "Life kinda sucks now. At the moment." What is one moment in time? It is nothing!

FAIL is a 4 letter word

I am back to failing the same subjects I did in lower secondary. Possibly cos I am as slack as before. -.- DIE. What the hell am I doing?! Wake up!
I MUST NOT RETAIN. I MUST GET PROMOTED - NOT ADVANCED.
If I'm gonna retain, I was thinking of going overseas. Really. Maybe I'm just not cut out to be doing this. I hope to prove myself wrong. Gotta keep the faith!

Ah yes. Spain. (:
I smiled my way to dreamland that morning. I was grinning like mad(haha) so I took a really long time to fall asleep. Excited, you see.
To put it simply... Germany got owned! They only played well for 10min? How disappointing. Out of all days, why during the finals? Or was it just that Spain's much better? I believe so.
I still don't know what happened that Torres got a yellow card. I saw NOTHING.
Ballack's damn funny. Those who watched the game carefully should have seen what he did. I was laughing hysterically by then.
How I wished Raul could've played. He is the reason why I even liked the Spanish team in the first place. He is a good player. (:
I think Kuranyi looks like some Italian mafia or something. He is also really tall. Haha. What observations huh. The Germans and BIG compared to the Spanish. Size doesn't matter. Yeah, you see! Size doesn't matter. Look at me! LOL.
Bastian is NOT HOT. He just has nice hair. He didn't play particularly well either. SIGH.
Man of the match to me is... Fernando Torres. DUH. Did you not see him? It's definitely not gonna be Lahm. HAHA. Oooh but I think Lehmann did quite a good job. Although not good enough. Casillas didn't have many opportunities to prove himself, if you know what I mean. Oh man, what a match! Gonna rewatch it this Saturday at Uncle Kola's house(his Nigerian, how cool!). Then I can rub it in that my team won, and theirs didn't. Hehe. Too bad. German fans, no offence. I do like them. Just that I prefer Spain. I even like their country! It's been my wish since I was a child to visit Spain one day. It's a really nice place.

Which reminds me... Of my oral. Walau. I thought I was gonna die of an anxiety attack. It was so scary! But still, I was falling asleep waiting for my turn. Since my surname starts with a P, I had to wait quite a long while. By the time it was Jonathan's turn, I was wide awake. I said it was like "walking straight to my death". THE PASSAGE WAS SO SCREWED UP. First sentence already got words I have never seen before in my 17 years of living. Of course, after that, I found out that I read them wrongly la. HAHA. Hilarious. The female examiner kept going "mmm" after every sentence that I read. She did that to everyone. I found it pretty sarcastic. Like "mmm" means "tsk!". The conversation topic was pretty easy. It was about tourism and whether I would rather go overseas during the holidays or stay in Singapore. I said overseas, explained why, said I'd like to go to India - which made them laugh(-.-). I gotta embrace my roots man! I can shake my head like those Indians cos it's in my blood! Haha. It's so funny to see people try to do it and fail.
Yay! So glad it's over!

Today, Coach said I can hit very hard. Whoa. Then he made me show my swing to everyone. Until I was damn tired already. I hate it. Coach always makes me run. He even said "Wah. This one must give faster." Walau. You think I'm some man is it?! ARGH. Make me run from one side of the court to the other! I even have to apply my fencing lunges now or I will never be able to reach the balls in time!

I have learned that I cannot revert back to wearing metal frame specs. The woman said I look like a mugger when I do. And I agree. I like my specs. I don't care if it's nerdy or whether it's purple! Purple is my colour! Ask Peiyi. Everything purple looks good on me. I have tried not to get so involved with it but I unintentionally wind up with it anyway. IT IS FATE. I've been trying eliminate it from my life. It's overkill already.
I really wonder why I have so few red things. It is my favourite colour after all.

Collegiate sizes are DUMB! They should have XS. If not people like me how?! -.- I'm sure even if they have an XS it'll still be a little too big for me. At the moment it's much too big.
Why can't I be 5cm taller? 2 cm to my legs and 3cm to my body please. I know, my legs aren't in proportion to my body length. Thanks for pointing that out Cherene! Ah really. If only my body was a tat longer, I would be satisfied.

It's getting late. And there are 3 hours straight of lectures. I am gonna die! Goodnight my friends! Sweetest dreams~

Get me outta here!

I finally had my first experience bailing someone out of jail. LOL. Ok ok, not me. Rather, it was my mummy. But what the heck. I was there.

PSA:
Don't drink and drive.

Nice one, Dr Obvious.
I don't see how people can be so dumb. I know alcohol makes you behave like a lunatic but who actually drives to a bar and makes the decision "Oh. I shall have a drink!" -.-

In this case, the guy was supposed to go to work but decided at the last minute not to and takes a U-turn to some pub for beer. When his colleagues start calling, he drives to work(night shift) and finds himself involved in a fender-bender, gets caught by the traffic police with a blood alcohol level twice the legal limit.
That man is really something huh.
And what's the first thing he does after he gets bailed out?
He takes a smoke.
What stupidity.

I was supposed to look for my new frame but instead... That happens.
I shall go frame-shopping. Not photo frame, just in case you were wondering. Specs. (:
I will try my best to not get a purple one. But if you ask me, purple is a very nice colour for frames. It's not bright, it's not dark. Tanned people shouldn't wear too dark a shade or risk looking even darker. And since my skin isn't exactly snow white, well... Purple fits me. But then again, everything is purple! During the exams, I realised the stripes on my Adidas jacket is purple, my pencil case is hot pink(almost like purple!), my bottle is purple and of course my specs(it's the bloody same colour as my bottle). No wonder people think I'm some purple freak. Ah! It's ok. Not many people can carry off the colour. HAHA.

I went to my aunty's house to play squash just now. I've never played like that before. I don't remember running around that much with the other girls. Guess my aunty is better. Until my uncle came saying, "Let's give Madelene some competition." Crap. If I thought I ran a lot before, this was like running 100m sprints over and over again. It was hell. My uncle was like "no mercy!" After more than an hour of non-stop squash-ing, I wanted to jump straight into the pool to swim and cool myself down. The water sure looked nice and cold. I couldn't of course. Busy woman. Ha. My mummy gave me $60 worth of vouchers for Minitoons stuff. So I had to go buy completely unnecessary things. I realised after paying that I must like Winnie the Pooh a lot. I used to collect the Winnie the Pooh toys from Mac. They are all chucked into my big drawer now. Open the drawer and you can imagine a cloud of dust exploding in your face. I haven't opened it in a long time now. I don't really care anymore. You can just throw them away. So many things have just lost their value over the years.
But of course there are things which remain priceless. "Touch them and you're dead" kinda precious. I think everyone has their own little things that they never wanna throw away for some reason, whatever the reason may be. It may be stupid. Sometimes I think I'm holding on to nothing. I wonder whether sweet memories will always be just that.
I really do wish I could turn back time. So many things I would've done so differently. But then again, I wouldn't be who I am today if not for those times I made the wrong choices.
And that's enough for me.

Ah! House is on. Gotta get my dose of Hugh Laurie now.
Shall comment on my Spain's marvellous victory soon!
Espanyol forever (:

Go on... Make my day.

The thought of SSP is really wonderful. Oh yes. HAHA.
I'm sure I'll have to go. I mean, the closest to a pass I can get is for econs.
Oh well. I told myself I will have no regrets. So I won't. No use crying over spilled milk. I WILL DO BETTER. This is the way I psycho myself to achieve. It's worked before, and it will work again. My faith is strong! :D Until then, it's out with the old and in with the new. Nerdyworld, here I come! As Kenny said, I am the master geek after all. :) May the force be with you. HA! Star Wars. Love it.

Let me chronicle the exam week. I left my house at 615 everyday when traffic is, you may say, non-existent. And mummy keeps turning into KAP's Mac. Seriously, fast food will clog up my arteries and add another thick layer of blubber on my already expanding thighs! LOL. I exaggerated that but... Everyone, please stop eating too much deep-fried goodness. It kills. Watch Supersize Me and you will understand.
When I reach school, I am quite literally the first few in the hall. So I catch up on last minute memorising, which I suck at. Looking back at the O levels, I really don't understand how I managed to memorise those History essays on Pacific War and USSR stuff. Memorising gets you no where! I memorised the wrong SS topic. Wasted my precious time! But still, A1 baby! That's the sheer genius of me. LOL. Full of nonsense, able to deduce or make up my own factors. YEAH. Actually, I think I can write a lot of nonsense. Forever writing nonsense. Sometimes no link also but still I write. To the point of hua she tian zu also. LOL. I don't know if I used that properly but whatever. Give me props for trying. AH! Chinese oral on Tuesday. MUMMY! I'm gonna make a fool out of myself. CRAP.
The badminton hall is freaking cold. And because the papers are so FON, I keep drinking water. Otherwise, I'll just be staring blankly at the paper or spinning my pen. Drink water= need for the ladies'. I hate the air con. We shouldn't be using it anyway. Killing the planet. Poor planet Earth. Tsk.
First day GP and MT. I can't believe I finished my AQ. So surprising. But my summary is screwed up. I think I used too much of my own words until it looks nothing like what the passage was talking about already. HA! And Chinese. That's the most horrible 3 hours of my life. Let's see, I spend hell of a lot of time reading just one passage and yet I understand less than 50% of what is said? Then the compo was what is considered a "xing fu mei man and sheng huo". Money, friends, family, health, good job? That was the easiest question. I finished in 45 minutes cos my train of thoughts was disrupted by the freezing environment and the immense urge to relieve myself. LOL.
Day 2: What a killer day. Math and chemistry. Enough said.
Day3: Econs. Haha. I hardly studied for it. How do you study for econs?! Enlighten me. Thankfully I have been reading the newspaper everyday so I know what are the factors that affect the prices of food and oil. There's the supply factor. Like the competitive supply blah blah blah. Natural disasters in rice producing countries. Biofuel etc. HAHA. All those hours reading the newspaper finally reaps its benefits!
Day 4: NO PAPER. I set my alarm for 10am. It went off but of course I switched it off and slept another 30min. I spent awhile the night before studying for physics. PHYSICS! Really, I should have taken lit. I'm sure I would do much better at lit. I don't mean to boast, but I really do have somewhat of the flair for it. HAHA. What a joke... At about 9pm, I just started reading the final chapter which is Work, energy, power. Then I realised... It's really nothing like O levels syllabus. HA! Room 5.12 said we studied before. No offence, but I don't think so ma'am.
Day 5: I was walking to my death. I didn't give up. More like, I know I can't pass physics for nuts. At least not this time. And considering the teacher. SIGH! It's disappointing. Yet, I didn't give up. At least I studied and learned more than what the teacher taught me. I studied all the way to "hell's" gate. LOL. I finally remembered what Newton's law states. But it didn't come out. This paper I finished in 40min cos there are blanks everywhere! NEVER MIND! Let's not talk about it anymore.

After the paper, I waited alone at the station for Nat for half an hour or something? Listening to my new songs. I really like "Us Against the World". It's damn nice. Haha. Can't I like boyband songs? They have all the cheesy love songs. But still... Two thumbs up. Oh then Arthas (I dunno how to spell his name) joined me for a minute. I think he's quite nice lor (what do you have to say about that, Kenny?). But I prefer to call him Ho Shiun. Anyway, I think he's quite blind. I look better in primary school? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! And sorry... But I forgot that you were in 5/9 also. I thought you were in 5/10. Haha. He seemed quite shocked that I forgot. I just remember that he was like the fastest sprinter in school or something like that. Smart and athletic. Wah. Singing his praises. I better stop it.
We went to Marina Square to look for Alicia's present. We lied to her, saying that we're going home to change. She called me while I was there and I said I was at home! HAHA. This is called, karma. What goes around comes around. Anyway, Nat. You are a lousy liar. But thankfully, Alicia didn't spot all the loopholes. And I loved the double berry ice cream. AH! I need to exercise. We ate at Shokudo or something like that. Ha. Then we watched Driving Lessons. I thoroughly enjoyed sitting beside Marcus! HAHA. Do I sound like some perv? I don't care. He just smells so good. Man, you smell good. All guys should smell like that. The world would be a better place cos all B.O will be gone. Ok, I am a bit crazy. Or rather, mad, now. Only now. LOL.
The movie is filled with the F bomb. But it's freaking genius. A smart show. I couldn't understand some parts though. Too smart for Singapore audience I think. And there was an exciting part as Kenny pointed out afterwards. Ha! Marcus went to sing at some open mic thing at the Esplanade? I hope it went well! I think his voice can melt the hearts of all girls. Heh...

Then it was farewell. Rushed home cos I needed the toilet again-.- There's really something wrong with me. I know it.

I was damn happy when I heard Spain won Russia. It was in the car just at the traffic light beside school. I hit the dashboard in excitement. HAHA. Insanely happy for them. MUACKS! Spain! I really can't be bothered who wins. I'm torn! Maybe I should just go flip a coin. Spain and Germany have been my favourites since I started watching soccer. I always liked Spain. But they always don't win. Germany always in top 4 at least or what. Spain's the favourite to win. Yeah. I shall support them. Although I'll be asleep. Or maybe I'll be thinking of them then can't sleep. Or like the other day. I woke up at 2 plus. Just when one of their matches was supposed to start. Haiya. David Villa not playing. -.- OH WELL. Go SPAIN! I LOVE SPAIN. *Cheers*

Today something dumb happened. Woke up bright and early for LIFE. Travelled about an hour to Queenstown. CLOSED! What the... So I went back all the way to Woodlands. It was still early so I went to the library alone to read books. Ah. Noisy people. Cannot shut up is it? Really feel like using masking tape to shut their traps. Such a nice book but I couldn't concentrate any longer so I left in an hour. My brother has been bugging me forever to buy KFC for him. So being a very nice, caring, loving sister, I bought it for him. XD
I can't stand it when they look at me. I really do not know them. To think they were just classmates or just a class away in primary school and they are involved in such activities now. Seriously. What's happening with the youths of today?!

Smoking kills.
Don't.
But then again, it's not any of my business. If you wanna kill yourself then whatever.

Here's something I found really motivating and inspirational when Adidas first came up with it. It was brought up again during devotions.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in a world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it.
Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion.
Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare.
Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary.
Impossible is nothing."


Don't give up on what you believe in.
I'm not...

I told ya so =P

WOO!!! Germany! Sorry Justin, but I just gotta rub it in. =P
Next, Spain :)
Come to think of it, a long while back when I was obsessing about Torres, nobody knew who he was. I have the gift of foresight, really. LOL. He rocks~!

I am trying to put the chinese chapters' mp3 file into my mp3 so that I can listen to them at night as I attempt to sleep. This way, it saves me the reading. I have yet to touch chinese and physics. Ah physics. Once again, I WILL FAIL MATH. Once again, my mummy has said it's ok. She knows I'm trying! I've spent 5 hours today on math. I've realised that my differentiation of trigo is "a bit" rusty. Oh well... Never giving up!

In less than a week, it'll all be over.
The countdown begins~
