WILD wild wet
phew, its was so fun! but i suffered a couple of cuts..

firstly, we reached wild wild wet ard 10 plus when it just opened. went with my relatives from my mom's side. there were, er yi, uncle david, si yi, wu yi, liu yi, uncle hiodono, isabelle, qi yi, xiao yi, uncle billy, cheryl, darryl, my grandma and i. [and best of all? it was free!]

so first we went to the professor's playground, where there were mini slides. played with belle and darryl. i love darryl. he surprised me by having so much fun. belle's alittle afraid of water, so she was a little freaked out. so i put both of them in front of me, and whoosh!, down the slides we went. haha, it was extra fun playing with them. darryl just couldnt get enought of the slides=) since we were quite early, there wasnt much people.

next we went to ular lar which is like bigger slides but for more people. i took it 3 times! it was that fun! but with different groups of people. poor darryl couldnt take it 'cause he was too short, and i dont think he would want to anyways. there was a camera near the end of the slide which takes a photo which you can buy at irrealistic prices [lol]. so by the third time, we knew when the camera was gonna take the photo and just posed for it. it was hilarious when the pic came out...

next was waterworks. which was 2 singular slides. one was open and the other was closed. i didnt like the closed one, it was creepy, sliding to no where in the dark. esp when i hate the feeling of going into the unknown. but i still took the slide twice cuz uncle billy and cheryl loved it..

then it was to the tsunami. which is a pool which has artificial waves created at certain time intervals. pretty ironic, the name. there are people dying from tsunami's and we're having fun in them. sigh. anyway, it was a pretty deep area. so only cheryl, uncle billy and i went. [the kiddies cant go... too deep and their parents wont allow. sigh. ] uncle billy had so much trouble pushing both cheryl and i to the furthest areas of the pool. poor him, got a couple of cuts while doing it and his eyes were red from the water. i feel so bad. but he was so nice about it.. but we left the pool after a while.

then there was the shiok river. which was just a pool of water around the whole compound that has artificial waves at certain time intervals and cute lifeguards along the whole river. haha. it was eye candy plus lots of fun fooling ard with my cousins. how can i not enjoy. i think i ran around it like 6 rounds in total. playing in it without floats is more fun. and having belle on ur stomach while on the float can help lose stomach fats. haha. i had cuts on my toes cuz the bottom of the shiok river is very rough. and cheryl and i were chasing each other. we were trying to run in the water and do stupid things like walking against the current. haha, weird, but it was fun!

i stepped on something sharp. at first i thought it was a tiny pebble and it went under my skin. but heng it was just a blood clot. was so freaked out. wat happen when i take it out and theres a hole there?! haha, was quite freaked out. had to use a needle to poke it out. which was really traumatizing since im afraid of needles.

there was only one "ride" i didnt take. which was a v shape slide. didnt had the guts, it looked really really creepy. lol. maybe next time.

all in all, it was a fun day. and the best part? i didnt had to pay a single cent! meals and snacks are all paid for by my aunts. heh heh =P

away for a day...
im going wild wild wet tmr with my cousins and aunts, going my grandma's house to stay over tonight. cant wait for tomorrow. just that i cant go online tonight which is really really gonna suck. but oh well.

went out with charlene, charlene and marian ytd. lol. all three of us [thats marian, c2 & i] are going aj! with c2 and i prob ending up in the same class 'cause we're taking the same subject combinations =D marian's going sci, but its cool that all of us are going to aj. poor c1 tho, she's already in hcjc, & j2 next year. can imagine that we'll be attending mass and charismatic quite often. and crashing hcjc tog... and my best friend from rosyth is going aj arts too! suddenly the road to jc doesnt look so dark=P
funny thing is before even entering jc, im planning to skip sch on the 11 jan. or maybe classes in the aftn lar. 'cause my gor is FINALLY treating me to gelare's waffle! 'cause well during tuesdays, waffles are half priced. haha. but he did promised to treat me years ago [2 years to be exact] and 11 jan is *drumrolls please!* my birthday! lol. am 17, but not getting treating like one at home, pretty sucky but im not gonna dwell on it.

ytd we went pasta mania to eat well, pasta lar. original plan was to eat at marche, but one reason led to the other and we went ps instead. it was fun exchanging gifts. tho the xmas mood is dying down a little. [the christmas trees outside heeren were already getting taken down!] sigh. i love christmas. [read: i love the gifts] but there's alwayse chinese new year! heh heh.

gonna be quite bored this week. but cleo's coming back today, so we prob go out. other than that, i've no plans except for bbq at my place on sat with my aunts, and going mass and out on sun. thursdays and fridays im free! anybody wants to go out? msg me... =P

boxing day!
happy boxing day! let me talk abt my christmas day...

we went my liuyi [6th aunt] 's place. was SO happy to see everyone again. the food was awesome. i still drool when i think abt it =p uncle and godpa brought wine and merlot, so i drank a little. then they played The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. yes i know, its a disgusting show and its too violent for christmas. and its ending is even dumber. and the little kiddies were starting to watch it! so when it ended, we played tom&jerry. haha, it was cute. kinda like reliving your childhood memories. but it was getting to be a little boring and my uncle started to teach me a little guitar and just basically chatting. then we watch new police story. was quite ok lar, just a little exaggerated as usual. and all this time, there was non-stop of eating. it was simply shiok. i think i grew a few kgs, but heck the food was too good. too bad i couldnt eat the prawns. oh well.
and darryl couldnt stop giving me his barney. i dont know why. i wouldnt mind if it was eeyores, i hated barneys. lol. but he's simply adorble.

then it was time to open the prezzies! well, it isnt much fun for me as the little kiddies, cuz i know what im already gonna get unlike them. i wrapped it myself after all. lol. got a zen micro plus $40 hmv voucher. hooray! i can buy my travis cd. and perhaps another sp cd. okok, im kidding. maybe good charlotte, but the life edition seems to be out of stock. shit. or maybe i should get lostprophets, buts its a little old. or green day. or jimmy eat world. or the oc mix 2.. oh dear, its a never ending list. i wish my $40 was like $100 or more.

today was fun. we went SHOPPING. my dad, mom and i. as in really shopping, not the running, grabbing, paying kind. the proper walking ard, with nothing to buy in mind and taking our time. i bought 3 tops. 2 was form u2 and 1 from samuel and kevin. i love thier clothes but im prob not going to buy anymore cuz its too common. and my mom got herself a dress and pants. dad didnt get anything tho. he was too anxious to come back to watch his football as usual.

spent the whole nite loading songs into my zen micro. zen micro is totally cool. only problem? the touch pad is driving me nuts! its so difficult to control. argh, but im at least starting to get a little hang of it.

did u watch the news? a massive earthquake hit the indian ocean, north of Sumatra, Indonesia. many many people died. its quite depressing actually. tsunami's destroyed and killed many tourists in beach resorts. can u imagine going on holiday and dying there? eek. kinda remind me of those strange dreams i have last night. must be that texas chainsaw massacre movie. eek. not gonna think about it.

good nite and sweet dreams! [esp to me]

Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas! Just got back from midnight mass in church. hope everyone get lots of presents, eat lots of turkey, and have a great year ahead!

this year doesnt feel very christmas-y. perhaps its cause there have been conflicts amongst my family members just before/during christmas. pretty sucky isnt it? if there's one thing i wish for christmas is understanding and tolerance for everyone.

im going my grandma's house later where i can finally open my christmas/birthday/GPA award present - my zen micro! also, im going to gorge myself with lots of ham and drink lots of wine. [no turkey this year. dunno why tho.]

wanna change a template. hav a layout in my mine le. just couldnt decide whether i should put a simple plan pic or a green day pic. help anyone?

Singapore Art Museum
well, this post is one day late. heck, i've alwiz blogged late=)

went with mark to the Sinapore Art Museum [SAM] yesterday. we started off the day by me meeting him at the first door. it didnt work the past 2 times because i was early and he wasnt there yet, so i had to alight. but this time, he was super early. haha.

reached and walked past city hall to suntec. it was super early. like 11am and city link mall was still quiet. we went into hmv and mph where i went bonkers as Simple Plan was on the Lime and the calender that comes with it! haha.

proceeded to suntec. where we went up to the sky garden. geez, there were tons of vandalism. even the play ground was HEAVILY vandalised. haha. but it was quite hilarious to see what people have written on it. mark even took a couple of vandalism pics.

we went BK for lunch where we saw strange people. haha. this world is weird. or BK attracts strange people. and mark saw this guy from guitar class... and there was this lady that took off her shoes and rested her leg on the chair. i wouldnt think much of it, if she dressed like aunty-ish, but she looks like she works in the offices above. it was really really weird. spent quite some time eating before proceeding to SAM. we walked past city link and raffles shopping centre. omg, there were EEYORES! and fat, ugly pooh bears. there were these white eeyores that were adorable. mark had to practically dragged me away from it. lol.

we took a map and found our way to SAM. oh, i thought i had a bad sense of direction, but thank goodness geography map reading were useful. we followed the map to SAM and arrived in like 10 mins. heng we didnt go the way mark wanted to, or i would hav no idea where we would end up in =P

the museum was in the old building of the old SJI. surprisingly we didnt had to pay even the student tickets. just said we were from AMKSS [which is so untrue. but if that doenst work, we can say we're from anderson and innova=P] got some lame sticker and poof! we got in! haha. saw two main exhibitions. "blink!" and "botero in singapore". "blink!" is actually still life done by local artistes. didnt really know how to appreaciate it. but we acted arty farty anyways. haha. then it was the "botero in singapore" thingy. his works are pretty interesting. read: plump and naked [mostly women] people. but hey! its art. got fascinated by it when we stumbled on those bronze sculptures outside esplanade 2 weeks ago... haha. mark took quite a lot of pics. go see mark's blog for other pics.

then it was time to head back. through chijimes, raffles, city link and to suntec again. where mark got his sushi and drink then to millenia walk's candy empire for CHOCOLATES! haha. love the nougat, it wasnt hard at all. yummy.

then i met my mom. which as usual wasnt really fun. i mean shopping with my mom is just zero fun. her posture, comments, way she talks just kills the whole shopping mood. so we left for home in less than an hour.

i managed to find Galaxie mag with sp on the cover tho. was delighted like mad. lol. had a fun day=D

taken outside the art museum. like the angle it was taken. looks very middle-east-y. or like in those arab countries. haha. it must be the art, it makes you imagine strange things=P

thats me caught in the act of vandalising. there's this area in the art museum where there are small white boards. so heh heh. obviously i would go doodle a little. was quite fun actually=) hey, vandalism IS a form of art anyway...

PAE
yep, i got into ajc arts. kinda ironic eh? like what yip ling said: "half happy and half pissed" at the results. happy cause well, aj is a good school. pissed 'cause despite it being a good school, its also a super duper boring school. and its so near my house. but i've yip ling for the first 3 months. so its gonna be ok=) and maybe jo. but no one knows her posting yet 'cause she's holidaying in hokaido. *keeps fingers crossed* that lucky girl.

in going ito church to help out later. at first, i only wanted to go when my parents said they were going. its some christmas performance thingy cum dinner. then my parents decided not to go at the last minute. but i've already gave my word that im gonna help out. argh. this sucks. i seriously dont know anybody there. gonna stone for 3 hours. oh well.

yesterday went ice skating. i have 2 blue blacks on my knee. i fell only once on my knee! but my balance still sucks. just go ask zhen yan. haha. but i had fun. we skated for like 5 hours. its insane.

oh, im free the entire week. anybody want to go out? except for maybe monday... actually im broke, but heck i still have some savings left..

Fill your heart with love..
im not being cheesy here. went for the sacrament of reconcillation - confession just now. felt much relieved. the priest was telling me to "do not despair... fill your heart with love ..." something about if i "fill my heart with love", i'll be more at peace with the world.

another thing. i quarelled with my dad and mom last friday. so it has been a little tense at home. but dad was so sweet during the confession. he told me that he told the priest about shouting at his daughther. and my dad said sorry. which is the rarest thing. i hardly EVER hear him say that. i felt so guilty myself so i apologised too. was trying to hold back my tears. sigh. what's wrong with me last friday?! must try to change!

gonna try to catch oceans 12 tmr. i say try cause its opening tmr and cleo and i are afriad the tix are sold out. i dont have a credit card so i cant booked. argh, this sucks. gonna zzz le..
