Hazel: Okay!

after months of hard work.
scoldings,
blisters,
tears,
blood,
headaches,
butt aches (from sitting on chairs for too long),
laughter,
pain,
devotion,
countless practices,
nags,
sore arms and fingers,
rehearsals,
fear,
uncertainty,
and everything else we've been through.

As a harp ensemble, we've achieved much together as one, and I'm proud to say that we have achieved a Gold award for the SYF Central Judging 2011! :)
Whatever we've gone through, it was worth it, all worth it.
Thanks for all the support and encouragement from everyone, it was truly a great learning process that I've undergone.
I LOVE HARP <3

xoxo

Let's not think about tomorrow.

Mooze: OI HAHAHA HI you're Seow Chien isit!!! LOL how you find my blog? ;) STALK ME RIGHT!

hello!
today's a sunday and i feel like crap.
can somebody tell me why the weekends pass so quickly while minutes in the classroom on weekdays tick away super slowly?
life's a bore, a great bore.
just when i'm about to take a break from this fast-paced world, suddenly a whole pile of work comes crawling up to me.
and that sucks, alot.
anyway i'm happy that i got into the syf team ^^
just hope we would get a gwh this year!
pl cherubs will make history!!!! :-)
okay........
to be honest, i have loads to blog about.
it's just that i don't have the time and that i can't express my feelings well enough for you people to understand.
it's like a one-time off when my thoughts hit me hard, but the next thing i know, is that it just disappears.
sigh.
what a life i have.

and just so you know,
power-hungry people creep me out.

Lisa: Okay linked!! :)

Abigail: Hi Abigail <3

"HEY GIRLS!"
hahahahaha that epic line.
from someone off Youtube heehee ;)
inside jokes ftw.

i'm gonna blog about synapse nowww.
i know it's a lil' late but yeah, i'll probably blog in text and then let pictures do the talking.
after all, a picture paints a thousand words huh? :)

so anyway, we started off the day with group intros!
but before that we had dry runs and everything, like the day before.
honestly, it was a waste of time cos' i sat at my station doing nothing.
and my acsbr partner didn't come too...
so i ended up sitting there stoning for 2.5hrs.
LIKE WHAT!
i could have used that time to do my character log book.
but oh well, the fun on the actual day paid off. ;)

so we had group intros right? yeah, and we played icebreakers like blow wind blow, whacko, cat and mouse etc.
we played some of these games with group 7 and got to know some of them better :)
so after those icebreakers we had sharing sessions and games!
the umbrella and water game was funfunfunfun!
hahaha *rebecca black*.
ok nvm lolllllllll back to topic.
the egg-balancing game was pretty easy but gross cos' it was tough to avoid the smashed eggs on the floor haha!
after that was lunch and we had like this gender separation rofl :P
all the boys at one table, all the girls at the other!
during lunch i went off with sean to set up our stations outside the auditorium.
at first it was pretty awkward with all the 'thanks' and 'welcomes', but after awhile we got used to our routines and all haha.
and i can't believe he's sec 2!
i thought he was sec 3 all the time...
hmm.
guess there was congestion at the end cos' groups got mixed up with their stations.
and i think the mascot group 7 did was really funny :)
they made a mascot out of one of their group members and wrapped up his leg and all hahaha!
after this whole 'amazing race', we had an auction for the egg game and group 10 bought nothing!!!! :O
then the exco decided to take pity on us by letting us buy a box full of EVERYTHING that we needed to wrap our egg around with and yet sustain the pressure when dropped from a height.
hehehe so we started 'cracking' - as in get to work la, not crack our egg hahahaha (y)
what a pun.
ahem so anyway, we stuffed the egg in millions of plastic bags and wrapped it around an infinity layer of newspapers, with hopes that it would definitely not break cos' we had one of the biggest packages! :D
so after dinner (this time we sat as a whole group), we proceeded with the egg-drop, and when we retrieved ours, sadly, it broke.
must be because we were too rough when wrapping it up :/
but oh well group 10 ftw still :)
after the egg game we had a couple of games in the hall like the limbo, 'who has the...' game, the mini talent show etc. haha!
had loads of great laughs :)
OH AND THE CHICKEN HEAD GAME TOO! :P
the guys were super funny!!
haha :)
not that i'm poking fun at them or what but yeah.
so after all that fun and games we had a group photo before leaving for the finale at the tennis court.
we had to light up candles and form the words 'voyage synapse'.
took some pics and then group 10 was being a LITTLE BIT naughtier than others - we went for a night tour :D
COOL RIGHTTT!
we went to the darkest corners of the school and even heard dogs barking.
kinda creepy cos' i slipped twice...
oh well haha then after that we got called back :O
had a short debrief and a synapse photo-taking session with everyone gathered around the candles :)
awesome moment and plus the moon was uber bright that night! :D
when we got back to the auditorium, we bade our last farewells by collecting our souvenirs and sweets.
not to forget the encouragement cards as well :)
really cool!
love synapse 2011 ♥ (group 10 :D)
hehehe.
pictures!

hey guys. :)
long time no blog haha.
btw, happy birthday sheryl! :)
sorry for spamming your camera...
:D

hehehe actually i have alot of things to blog about but time ain't permitting me to do so.
i'll probably just touch on one of the topics for now.

sometimes, this is the real world.
like what people always say, 'fight for your rights'.
really?
i guess some people are fighting too hard for something they do not actually deserve, like they think they'd get it.
but somehow, eventually, they always win.
leaving the wounded, hurt and upset behind.
oh well.
that's life.
unfair.

bye.

All you ever wanted.

hi everyone :)
as you all can see i haven't blogged for a month :p
and i've finally had the chance to sit in front of the computer and clicked 'blogger.com' :)
okay so i'll cover various aspects of my stressful life that i've gone through for the past month.

Common Tests
bleah. i don't even wanna talk about it. no a1s this term i can bet. :( i screwed up practically everything, especially chem and bio. idw to be put on probation :'( please god, help me.

CCA
i've already memorised my songs for syf, the only thing i'm concerned is that i screw up during the audition and then i cmi. i really really really want to get into syf, not just for the cca points, but because it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. and i do hope all the harpists who deserve it make it to the performing team ♥ :) pl cherubs ftw, let's get gwh this year!

i'll blog about the sad stuff sometime soon.
kthxbye.

I'm not perfect.

Yeewah: Hahaha yeah ;)

seriously.
sometimes i guess i really wonder about things too much.
but this time, i've had enough.
i know i should be taking this time to complete my work/study for common tests.
but i just needed a break, both physically and mentally.

school's already putting me off so much, and you still have the cheek to show me that stupid attitude of yours.
i'm trying to be nice to you, but all you know how to do is give me that annoying face of yours.
i'm helping you so much already, and you don't even appreciate one single bit of it.
don't come crying to me one day when you need me.
who asked you to take my help for granted.
seriously, can't you just learn to be independent and stop relying on others to provide you everything.
and without even working for it, you get rewarded pretty well.
you always put on your stupid annoying attitude, stop acting like you're the best k.
this world's just so unfair, this statement's so true.
please change your attitude, cos' from the start, though i've been trying to help you, but now i've run out of patience.
and it's not like you appreciate my help.

it's got me thinking about something else too.
i asked myself this question yesterday - just how many true friends do i have?
i define true friends as people who stand by each other no matter what, people who help each other selflessly, people who understand each other inside out, people who i can really have fun with, people who just, well, are nice-loving.
it's hard to put it in words, but i'm sure you get the big picture.
and i counted, i have 9.
like... you kidding me, seriously?
9?
right, so maybe, after all i do only have 9 true friends.

fine.
maybe i'm not as talkative, lively, responsive and involved in your secret little conversations and jokes as other people are.
but it's just that some of you don't know me well enough!
can't you just accept me as who i am?
i'm tired of trying to change for you.
i'm not your toy.

i'm tired of doing everything for everyone, tired of always being the one making sacrifices, tired of always being the one getting hurt, tired of being the one you talk to only when you have no one else, tired of being used, tired of constantly putting on a brave front, tired of being the goody-goody kid, tired of a one-way friendship, tired of being someone whom i'm not, tired of making changes to myself just to suit your needs, i'm just so tired.

You know what's wrong with being too strong? Nobody bothers to ask if you're okay.

Oh the joy.

i'm an angry kid.
my hair is screwed.
urghhhh i'm gonna clip my hair up when i go to school.
though it's too short and thin, idc, i'm gonna find some sorta way to do it.
stupid hairdresser.

school's so stressful.
i mean what i say.
the homework's coming like a filled garbage truck unloading itself.
everyday, it comes down like a dump, however heavy it is we have to finish everything.
homework seems so much more like a chore now, and not something for us to do at our own time.
what do the teachers think we are, robots?
come on, admit it, everyone's all stressed out over the endless revision and homework.
can't the teachers trust that we'll do our own revision?
i drag my tired feet from school home, and by the time i reach home it's like what, 7.30?
i bathe and eat and start on homework at about 8.30.
due to the crazy amounts of homework given, we have to sacrifice our sleep everyday.
i think this is ridiculous, we are already stressing out so much at school, and so much homework is given.
it would be funny if we didn't fall sick, like how i did.
didn't the school say they want us to be 'physically and mentally healthy'?
so what's with the stress now.
fine, i know stress is good, but too much can kill!
oh the joy, of school.

i hope someone will read this.

Party all night and day.

and that was how amazing i felt yesterday evening :)



i love how i can enjoy myself without feeling guilty

we had our camp committee bbq, and i have to say it was beyond awesomeness? it's way too cool how my close friends in the camp comm can make me so hyper, happy and crazy. :)

i stuffed mushrooms with shredded cheese, skewered raw chicken wings, washed mushrooms while some dropped on the floor in that process, barbecued the food, danced with the metal wire plate and raw chicken, witnessed a lizard crawling up the barbecue pit, laughed so hard at anchi's sausage dances, stuffed myself with chicken wings, throwed out the big trash bags, gathered round as a group to eat and bond, took photos, became a caveman for the night, found a fly in the drinks, realised the mysterious disappearance of the chicken wings, washed our hands while discovering the dirty toilet, observed the moon that night, bounced up and down ridiculously, imitated charlie's angels, felt so grossed out by the unknown green substance (which was soap), got angry at people but turned it into a joke in the end, took super little beehoon, laughed, laughed, laughed, laughed, laughed, laughed and laughed. :)

thank you guys for the amazing night :)
sec 1 camp committee ftw.

retard family wins, too. :)
