Ahh, haven't posted in a long time cos of the relative absence of my poor mouse. Bleh, it's a long story. A computer's not of much use without a mouse, don't you think? Bahh.
Anyway, the party was great. Had loads of fun with the rest that came - Ang, Rach, Tris, Ecoli, David, Mopiko, Nick, Sean, Joel, Vanessa and Bert. Zouk was funky but most of us ended up kinda drunk so the less said about it the better. I wasn't actually 'drunk' in the early part of the night or should I say, morning; I probably just have a really weird metabolism of sorts cos the full effect of the drinks only hit me after like 3 or 4 hours. Heh. Weird, huh. At first I was perfectly fine and clearheaded while some of the others, like Ecoli for example, were incapable of even walking in a straight line. And then all of a sudden, *WHAM* I started feeling 'floaty' and my legs just couldn't coordinate in a proper fashion. Argh. Funny enough, I was still more or less able to think...just felt wayy detached from my body. Oh well. Not much else to say, except for the fact that there are loads of sad people at Zouk. Kinda out of point but yeah, I'm referring to the guys that just stand around trying to look suave, but end up looking leery and drunk, when picking girls up.
The sleepover was fun too :] Haha, enjoyed myself lots just spending time with everyone. It's gonna be the last major event that I'll be going for till after the promos, man. Been studying, or trying to study these days in the library and the hub. Not much good it's been doing me since I usually just end up talking to the rest. Yep, kinda tired. Try looking for the great big eyebags that I have when you see me in school one day, it's not hard to find, I tell you. Okay, disjointed sentences are a sign of fatigue. I'd better go get some rest now.

Heh, come tomorrow and Ang'll finally be 17. Happy Birthday, Ang! :P Have a good one, man!
Ang and Tris are throwing a combined birthday party on fri, heh. Funnn! Not really sure about what's happening on the day itself but we'll prolly be checking in at Crown Prince after school before going for dinner and stuff. Then Zouk, courtesy of Tris' dad or something. Bahh, we might have to share our room with some of the guys though. Knowing them, we'll prolly wake up with toothpaste on our faces the next morning, man. Haha. Anyway, I've got tuition the morning after. Can you even believe it. Argh. Blasted tuition's bleeding me dry. Oh well. Let's just hope I'll be able to wake up in time for it.

She's taking her time making up
the reasons
To justify all the hurt inside
Guess she knows from the smile
and the look in their eyes
Everyone's got a theory about the
bitter one
They're saying, "Mama never loved
her much"
And, "Daddy never keeps in touch
That's why she shies away from
human affection"
But somewhere in a private place
She packs her bags for outer space
And now she's waiting for the right
kind of pilot to come
And she'll say to him
She's saying
"I would fly to the moon & back if
you'll be...
If you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world where we
belong
So would you be my baby?"
She can't remember a time when she
felt needed
If love was red then she was colour
blind
All her friends they've been tried for
treason
And crimes that were never defined
She's saying, "Love is like a barren
place,
And reaching out for human faith is
Is like a journey I just don't have a
map for."
So baby's gonna take a dive and
Push the shift to overdrive
Send a signal that she's hanging
All her hopes on the stars
What a pleasant dream
Just saying
"I would fly to the moon & back if
you'll be...
If you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world where we
belong
So would you be my baby?"
Mama never loved her much
And Daddy never keeps in touch
That's why she shies away from
human affection
But somewhere in a private place
She packs her bags for outer space
And now she's waiting for the right
kind of pilot to come..

Ahh I've been so busy with work and tuition these days. Haven't had enough time to myself. Damn, I need a time-out soon. Argh. And to make things worse, this guy whom I think is kinda cute knows that I like him. To top things off, he probably thinks I'm an idiot, too. Grrr. All thanks to Tristan, Mopiko, Nick and Bertrand. Shit, man. We were all in the library yesterday when they found out who it was and wrote this really gross and sappy letter on PINK paper to him addressed in my name. Bloody hellll. Mopiko grabbed it and passed it to him while all I could do was bury my head in my hands and curse. Gawd, I am so pissed with him. I couldn't even bear to look at his reaction while he read the stupid thing. Oh well. I only found out what they wrote in the letter after Rachel managed to get it back from him. Bahh, if it wasn't happening to me, I'd have been damned amused by the whole incident. They spelt his name wrongly, so much so that it came out sounding like some weird egyptian name. Ahh. It went something like,
"Hi *insert weird-sounding-egyptian-name here*,
I've noticed you around and I find you VERY attractive. My name is Shu Min, the tall one, sitting directly behind you. Hee hee oh my god I'm soooooo nervous........
*insert heart here* Shu Min *insert heart here*
1SC7"
What the hellll..'Hee hee oh my god I'm soooooo nervous'?! I don't even say things like that. Sheeesh. This is damn sad. And by the way, Tristan, your handwriting sucks. So do your heart drawings. Haha. They look preschool-ish. Shucks. He probably thinks I'm some weirdo by now. Oh well. Can't do much about it now, can I. It's just so embarrassing though. Pfft.
Had tuition straight after school today till about 830 or so. Man, am I tired. Chinese mock exam tomorrow. Shiiit. I hate those. My chinese is, unfortunately, pathetically below the national average. I've gotta do something to rectify that soon, man. Heh, I've been trying to study hard these days during free periods at the library and all. Don't know if there'll actually be any sign of improvement in my work though. Ahh, only time will tell, eh.

Dream, the third of The Endless, you are in charge
of the Dreaming, all imagination and
creativity, everyone knows your beautiful
realm, but none truly understand it. You are
dark and brooding, creative, and spend a lot of
time by yourself, just thinking. You are almost
as serious as Destiny, but not quite. Everyone
is enchanted by you, but you keep them all at a
distance, even when you shouldn't.
Which Endless are you?
brought to you by Quizilla
Some parts sound familiar but others just don't seem like me at all. Hrm. Did this before I think.
Anyway, not feeling too good. Was running a slight fever this afternoon but I'm much better now, I guess. Don't think I'll be coming to school tomorrow though. Still kinda nauseous. We'll see how things go.

Haven't been blogging much the past few days. Heh. Update time.
Had National Day celebrations in school yesterday and stayed back for some sectionals and alto retreat thingy after that. Ahh, I shall withold comment on it. Suffice to say, it was..loong. Yep, so I rushed off as soon as I could after that with Ying Ying and Lim Wei. Haha, they are such funny people to be with. Anyway, we went to the Pizza Hut in PS to meet Ying's friends from AJ, whom I have never met before in my entire life, and sat down for a long overdue luncheon. I felt kinda weird at first cos I didn't know them at all but yeah. Things kinda smoothened out after a while, to the extent that they even started jacking me! Arghh. I'd only known them for about a few minutes and they were already teasing me..damn, that's sad. Haha. Lunch at Pizza Hut is such a waste of time. To put things simply - the best tasting item on the menu was the Pepsi. Gosh. I ordered the chicken and mushroom pasta and got something that looked vaguely like microwaved chicken soup with lumpy, bland funghi mixed with a pile of pasta. It's honestly not worth my 8 bucks, man. Should've eaten at Pastamania. Oh well.
Anyway, I saw him while we were eating! Heh, yay. Never expected to see him there. Haha. Gosh, Lim Wei kept asking him to come and take pics with us but lucky for me, he didn't. I'd have died of embarrassment, man. Haha. Then Toshi came over with his friends, Alex and Colin aka the Macdonalds brothers, and I got jacked even more by all of them cos I got Toshi's birthdate mixed up and all. Long story. It was his b'day yesterday. Heh, if you read this, Happy B'day kiddo. Yeah, got him a pathetic present and a letter with a very well-meaning Fizzy Cola sweet hidden in its depths..which got everyone laughing all over again. Bahh, what's wrong with Fizzy Cola sweets? *glares* Everyone likes 'em. Fizzy Cola sweets rock my world. Yep. We talked more and as usual, the jacking continued even after we left Pizza Hut. The three of them were telling me riddles and they refused to let me in on the answer. Argh. I hate it when people tell me about something halfway and then refuse to fill me in on the rest. They were damn mean - kept me in suspense for such a long time. To make things worse, the answers to the riddles were totally lame. Heh. After that, I left for home in the hopes of enjoying a more satisfying meal than that glob of soup they call 'pasta'.
Today was equally long. Ahh. Met up with Ang, Divvy, Daphne, Jo-ann and the rest at Swensens to redeem our 50 bucks worth of vouchers. Haha, all courtesy of Santhosh, Ang and Daph for winning the 2nd prize in some science quiz thing. Mmm. Swensens ice cream is heavenly. We ordered fries and loads of ice cream, including an Earthquake. Lovely. Heh, almost OD'd on Sticky Chewy Chocolate ice cream, man. Hope I gained weight from this whole eating fiesta. :] Then we all headed for the Heeren to take some neoprints..god, I need to stop with the whole neoprint/card thing.
Ang and I walked all the way to Borders after that to sit around and relax but stupid Mopiko called and we ended up walking back to meet him and Valmiki. Bahh. Found ourselves back at Heeren after much walking and I sort of, well, kinda broke Mopiko's credit card. :/ Ahh hell. It wasn't on purpose, man. He was showing off his credit card so I took it and started bending it back and forth to taunt him. Just at the precise moment when he was going to tell me not to break it, I heard a loud 'phraaack' sound and looked down to find two halves of what was once a whole credit card. Ack. Everyone was laughing while I looked down incredulously at my hands. The worst thing was, Mopiko wasn't angry. Arghh. That made me feel worse. Anyway, I left with Ang to catch a bus back and that girl went mad, I tell you. Haha. She refused to let me board my bus and kept dragging me away from it. The poor driver kept opening and closing the doors, not knowing if I was gonna board it or not. Thankfully, Ang's grip wasn't that strong, so I managed to get onboard with a red face and a somewhat red-looking arm. Matching National Day colours, don't you think? Heh. Happy National Day, to all. It's prolly the only time of the year when you can wave the flag without looking like a retard, so enjoy it while you can. :]

Lie To Me.
Lie to me in all honesty
Speak of things that aren't so,
That lies, although deceptive,
Are all there is to know.
Lie to me, oh, lie to me
I can't hold on no more.
Remind me of past glories
And battles fought before.
Lies fill me with the hope
And strength that does deceive.
Falsehood never failed me,
'Tis Truth I can't forgive.
Lie to me a final time
O' look me in the eyes,
And tell me that I've won
In spite of my demise.
Wrote this some time ago and well, I've realized these days that although lies do help to shield one from the starkness of reality, they never help in the long run. You know how it is when the longer you close your eyes to block out the sharpness of sunlight, the more painful those rays of light seem when you finally open them? The worst thing is, they're still there. And they hurt your eyes even more so than before. Same goes for lies. You can wrap yourself in lies to hide from the truth but when you finally do face up to it, you'll find that the same old problems are there awaiting you. The only thing different is - they're worse off than before, and they hurt more.
We just never learn, do we.
