MARSHALL ALLMAN!
Oh, my gosh (:

Have you ever seen anyone look so cute while in a prison uniform in the lift?!
I most certainly don't think so.
:D

Meanwhile, people, do take a look at breakmontblanc more often now because I like it there (:

2007-03-23T23:23:00.000-07:00

Today's total mileage: more than 4.5km, I hope.
Gosh, I feel so accomplished.
Around 7.3seconds for trolley pulling (it never felt so heavy before!) and lots and lots of runs and BALLWORK, like finally. Except that I can't throw a proper shoulder pass now.
I think...I don't know, nevermind.
Running and running was sure tiring but soon after that it got just plain running-ish and gosh, I really don't want to run cross-country now, that my ankle can't survive without an ankle guard, and my knees can just crash.
Ima damn hypocrite, I know, going on and on about mind over matter. But really, do I even have a mind?

Silence, is not what I need right now.
Silence, can be deafening.

2007-03-22T22:24:00.000-07:00

Prison Break tonight, and Daddy has Men in Tights to watch.
ARGH.
Not that Men in Tights isn't a great show for one to relax but hey, PRISON BREAK! YOU ONLY CATCH IT ONCE.
Sigh. 20 minutes, and we'll see what number appears on the set top box. Either 60 or 02. I would very much love 02 ):

On the other hand, exercise makes one unwell, medicine just gives one a kind of, 'you're sick, so stop doing everything and rest' flavour in the throat.
There's even such a flavour?!

I got a new book today. The Girl in Times Square.

2007-03-22T12:20:00.000-07:00

"Dear Applicants,

Congratulations! You are the successful applicants for the 2007/08 SportsXcel Programme. I am Mr Alex Loh and I will be your teacher mentor for the programme (of course all decisions have to go through Mr Ng first...). From now on, information will be deseminated via email and sms through either Mr Ng, myself or an appointed rep (for now Grace), so please check your email regularly. We will be sending you for seminars, workshops and courses so please be prepared for the commitment. Also, if any of you come across any interested external courses you might like to attend or if any of you feel the need for a certain emphasis on whatever your skills/training lacks, please let us know and we can work something out. Attendance for the seminars is compulsory unless special permission granted and will take precedence over your PDP trainings (not very often).

We will meet soon to confirm your status and for a further briefing.

Best Regards,
Mr Alex Loh"

ZOMG OMG MG G!

Iddie may not be posting as often here anymore.
I'll be bouncing between this and breakmontblanc so seeya around, folks.
I hereby conclude I wasn't made for Science: I couldn't even think of an answer during Bio this morning ><

2007-03-21T20:25:00.000-07:00

285 days left in the year.
If I can actually pass my Maths, that means that 80 days have gone by.
And you think, gosh, it's been so long, but only 80?
Yes, only 80.

Felt horrible trying to do my Lang Arts essay in the late morning, Higher Chinese was a total failure in terms of trying to pay attention, and Contact Time was crazy!
Besides that, 2/9 for my Maths Differentiation pop quiz. My mind totally couldn't think.

Video watching was a mix of finding when Kesleen's 5 SECONDS OF FAME were, and rushing the essay, which I handed in 5PM on the dot, mind you. Just hope mine doesn't end up at the top of the pile.

Just took the ice off my ankle, moved the ankle and it CRACKED.
I'm loving it :D

Oh, and by the way, 25 more days to Phantom.
PHANTOM PHANTOM PHANTOM!

2007-03-21T10:33:00.000-07:00

So, Iddie's feeling worse today than yesterday.
And ironically, Iddie's in school today, unlike yesterday.

Everytime I sniff really hard, the right top part of my head begins to hurt. Real bad. For only like a few seconds or so so that's all right.
And the ankle is still not healing; in fact, it's getting worse then two days ago. How am I supposed to walk in my beige heels on Saturday for the wedding, then?!
Gosh.

I need to eat potato chips.
But not with the ulcer under my tongue.
Owwwch.
Iddie feels a little screwed up right now, physically.
Iddie has to go do her March Holiday Assignment, which involves writing her first ever expository essay of 500-800 words. And she has to hand it in by uh, 5pm today.
Sheesh, I wish I had the brawn to ask Marcus Tan for an extension.

I seriously can't think.

2007-03-20T14:46:00.000-07:00

Iddie is the weirdest creature ever.
First, she cries because she wants so badly to play this year.
Then at training against Zenith, Coach puts Iddie as C and tells her she doesn't want any rubbish.
Iddie nods her head.
Iddie has a mindblock because the word 'rubbish' is stuck in her head.
Iddie gives a 2/10-worthy performance.

):

No mindblock, please. No more.

And I should stop getting viral infections. The past few visits to the doctor has always been viral infections. STOP!

I should start getting down to finishing Language Arts soon.
Viewing the Bedok CSC game tomorrow in the video room. Poof, I'm going to hear my voice over and over and over, shouting for those on court.

2007-03-19T11:12:00.000-07:00

Slow and I were talking about skinnies and how I wanted lime green 3quarters and Slow said if I'd said I wanted lime green skinnies she wouldn't be my friend anymore. So I said I can't wear skinnies anyway because I'm fat!
Then...

Slow: Yyyyea and I'm obese.
Iddie: Yyyyea and I'm an elephant.
*pause*
Slow: Yyyyyyea and I'm an obese elephant!

GOSH! The spastic things we come up with. Iddie gets pwned.
Hmm, how about lime green elephants with obese skinnies?
SHIT, I mean, obese elephants in lime green skinnies.
Yea, that's sexy.

AILIN; says:
i mean u are afterall still part of e team :)

2007-03-19T08:47:00.000-07:00

Blogger destroyed my entry about training camp!
And the rain kind of spoils the 'oh it's the first day of school let's get all excited' mood.
Sigh, I should get less sick and more unsick and stop whining.
Iddie's a whiny beetch!

I'm so glad I didn't take Chemistry; there are 268 slides to cover about bonds between atoms.
And one of these is a uh, buckministerfullerine. Or buckyball.
And I'm getting bites all over.
See, I wasn't meant for school.

2007-03-18T22:46:00.000-07:00

Gee, talk about emotional.
I just wanna play this year, that's all.
I wanna play, real bad.
Sigh.

I got a pretty pretty black dress for Ling Yiyi's wedding! It IS pretty (:

Thank you Miaoru for the very encouraging words, Junjun, Amanda and Peiwen for the tissues offered.

2007-03-17T11:59:00.000-07:00

The past four days have been a very very nice affair (:
Tuesday was training with lunch then training again,
Wednesday was training (gosh, 1k 1k 400m!) then lunch then training again, then free time then sleep, and
Thursday was morning run (about 2.2k broken up) then breakfast then VIDEOS(!) then lunch then training and yesterday it was training in the afternoon.
Not forgetting the sleeps in the gym on the iBounce in between lunch and trainings, GOSH those are woots, please (:

Yesterday morning was to Marsiling to record 'Arise, My Love' for Ling Yiyi's wedding. I hereby conclude that it's really hard to get the sound out right from electronic keyboards ><>Temasek, FIGHT!

2007-03-14T00:31:00.000-07:00

2007-03-14T00:14:00.000-07:00

Morning training was HAHA funny today in a really weird way because because of my stupid weak little wrist, I couldn't pull the trolley cart today. And so I went to do ballwork against the wall and actually stationary ones were fine. Then I decided to do the runups to catch the ball and the first time I landed, for some stupid reason, the left ankle went crack to the left, then a split second later crack to the right, then came back upright and I was like 'IS THIS IT, IS THIS AN INJURY OH MY GOD YAY I finally feel human!' on the inside. >< And anyway it did hurt, just like I expected, just that this time, it feels different.

Lunch was great, Grazz went high, we all fell asleep in the Gym, and afternoon training was SIGH, really rainy. Kind of retarded, actually. And get this: Iddie cannot put her leg forward properly. Poof.

Got my ankle guard and met Ryan to get my donuts that he queued for at DONUT FACTORY!
Peanut butter doughnuts are definitely on my cravings list now.
NO Iddie no junk food for you.

I still can't get over the fact that I can't put my leg right in front of me (besides running & walking) naturally. ):

I'm falling apart, man. Like, physically. Wrist, knees, ankle, what's next, is my HEAD going to fall off?!
Oh quit whining Iddie, your goal for today was 'To not let injuries overcome you [me]'.

I want to play the HuhWhat-turn-Chineseversion game with Denise and Sandra and Nicole again! Like, like, like yesterday.
I'd do anything to go out with the Churchies again man ):

Huh, what, who, where?
becomes
Shen me, Zuo mo, na li, shui?
and potentially
Jia ba bueh, kuah simi (and other stuff I can't remember)

2007-03-12T11:00:00.000-07:00

Take 6 completely took the stage last night :D
I have to get down to listening to their album soon.

I bought white laces with red outlines and grey outlines. One colour for one side (:
Now my Mizunos look... red and grey and outlined ><>You have to give it your all, or you'll have to give it up.

2007-03-10T11:31:00.000-08:00

Covered about 3.5km in this morning's run:

- 1.4km
- 1.4km
- 700m

AROUND THERE!
The outsides of my feet get tired too easily with the new Mizunos.
But to hell with that, it's always the case with new shoes for me.
Ever heard of uh, solid feet muscles?!
Well well got myself a wrist support thing for my now weak wrist that came back after injury in Secondary 1.
I feel like a biker gal(xzxz)!

Watching Casino Royale now with Milli, and it's definitely noisy!
And with people from Mbale, Uganda speaking English in it, a movie like this definitely needs some subtitles. WHICH IT DOESN'T!

Black stunt people are cool.

You know there's no one else here to save you

2007-03-09T11:18:00.000-08:00

Didn't go to school today because HEY, it's the last day of school, and I just wanna relax!
And so here's my timetable today:

- Going out for my Mizuno shoes with Mummy
- Lunch with Mummy
- To Thomson CC nearby field to watch the guys train for Monday's soccer match against FUEL
- Piano lesson

I'm off to practise my violin at 1130 or something, WHOOSH.

Meanwhile, for entertainment, have a read (:
http://imdb.com/title/tt0413573/quotes

Memorable quotes from Grey's Anatomy throughout its entire run, which hasn't finished yet.

2007-03-08T22:23:00.000-08:00

Presentation today was, BLEAH, but it was nice to watch all those clips of Singapore Dreaming again, especially the road sweeper one :D

Went to the gym with Ely at about 3:30 and stayed till 4:10 then I went off to shoot and did a slow suicide.
PT was all about fun today, slow run to the bottom of Lucky Heights, big slope x 3 and small slope x 3.
Reminded me of Turf.
Then we walked back to school (about 1 kilometre?) and sprinted 100m to the finish line. That part I like (:
Then picked up leather ball and went to slam some balls (don't think bad) against the wall and then sat down in the wind with Sunny and Miaoru and talk talk talk then we went to throw javelin! I made mine stick ONCE, but it stuck 45 degrees the other way ><
Then picked up my stuff and left for home.

TURF TURF TURF.

WAHH I do not want to compete against Charmaine Chew, y'know y'know ):

Netball training camp from Monday to Wednesday, intensive intensive woah and I can't wait and on Tuesday morning it's cross training at 8am and we're most probably going to have to run 8-click. :
The weirdest thing happened after training just now.
I was wearing the StNicks PE shirt and so from behind...

Hockey guys: Eh, StNicks de!
Iddie: *turns around, gives the 'what do you want' head motion thing*
Hockey guys: *points to a guy with a hockey stick and a ball* Our friend here want to haolian...
Iddie: Ahh, whatever la, *walks away*
2 moments later;
Hockey guys: Eh, StNicks de!
Iddie: YES?!
Hockey guys: My friend likes your muscles!

2007-03-07T23:04:00.000-08:00

I am somehow pissed with the fact that training ended at around 845 and I left school at 9 and got home at 1030 and only finished my showering off and stuff at 1045 AGH, and I still have work to do and I'm tired ):

It must be the MSN alert sounds. ><

2007-03-07T13:20:00.000-08:00

My bag strap broke and I think the backspace key on my tablet kind of jammed. Gotta press it pretty damn hard just to delete ONE LETTER.

Watched Step Up again just now in the MS with Ximin and Nat who joined in halfway.
God I feel like dancing again!

Training at 5 today for Netball, next cross training is Tuesday morning 8am in school. I'm dreading it ):
I thought I swore never to run Middle [Long] Distance ever again when I got out of StNicks?!

BOO ):

Oh and just now in the MS I was so cold my stomach was shivering and so I was shivering.
I shall go do ladder later.
Loads and loads of ladder.
But I didn't wear the correct shoe :\

2007-03-06T20:11:00.000-08:00

Liza Minelli and Miss Ying might actually have some... slight similarities between them.
Go find pictures of Liza Minelli in "Arthur".

Freakout of the day: Iddie is now in Temasek Academy's B Division Cross-Country team.
No way a month of training is going to get me anywhere near 17 minutes ):

Anyway today's excursion to Singapore Botanic Gardens was, HOT.
I think I got a little darker.
Ang Mian and Clarence and Shimon and I teamed up (KURT + Shimon ><) and we got back right on time at 345 and the stupid man at the refreshments place gave me pimply apples ):

Oh, whatever, I'm going back to Elective work now... I seriously need to start on my journals.

2007-03-05T21:16:00.000-08:00

Training was seriously weird today, I think I'm getting unfitter by the day ):

Milli must learn to stop me from eating junk food!

MILLI INTERRUPTS
ohkay. SOME PEOPLE aka some beings of the sampan rowing nature are EEEEVIL. evil what does evil stand for? every voracious intention let loose. okay that's EVILL but ANYWAY, get the point.
end of interruption.

*Raises eyebrows*
Milli made me lose my train of thought!
I think the netballers made me happy today. Very, very happy (:

Junk food, junk food, junk food!
My latest love.
And oat milk.

I hope Kesleen gets happier soon.
(:

Off to do my part for elective now. Like, daeomn (it's supposed to be 'damn' with the weird american thing).

Rachael Yamagata's Quiet drives me soundless.
Avenged Sevenfold's Beast and the Harlot drives me insane.
Soundless + insane = Not a very good combination :\

2007-03-05T12:47:00.000-08:00

Another moment of weakness in the lift today.
Crumble, crumble, crumble.

All of a sudden, this is so tempting, I might actually go for it.

I look around and I'm thinking about November 2006 when I prayed for something.
He never helped.

And this is one of the times when I am serious.
Strength, courage, and no more words.

I look around and I'm thinking, "I don't expect anything to change _______________."

Shit.

2007-03-04T16:12:00.000-08:00

Orange County is a really cute show.

Came home after Mass to practise my violin because I haven't touched it for the past two weeks and I have lesson this evening.
Then it was to Church again for choir practise and Easter choir prac and Hallelujah is love and then it was to Junction 8 with Milli to get her new guitar strings.
Woo, the new guitar is hot.
Sounds hot too.

It's like I'm wasting my breath on you, on you

2007-03-03T22:12:00.000-08:00

I'm finally done with BIOLOGY!

Today's Young Sports Leaders' Seminar was a blast.
The Chin Chih Yung guy was really buff and stuff but man he was agile! And before that when Jasmine, Melissa and I saw him at the SMU Sports Hall (which has gorgeous soft flooring by the way) while Han Wee and Chaw Meng were playing basketball with the Chinapoks, Jasmine and I were like 'He can be agile meh...'

But yea, he's pretty quick, and he can squat real well, haha.

Sports nutrition was pretty ohkay, I realize that I have bad eating and hydrating habits for being an athlete :And Sports Psychology was conducted by Edgar K Tham who if I remember correctly conducted something in St Nicks before.

Whee.
Iddie's a happy girl.
Iddie's an accomplished girl.

Milli & Mandi's godma and our diodio and the two boys Ryan and Sean are over! And Mandi got second piercings on both ears. I want two on my right and one on my left. AH. ):

2007-03-02T10:38:00.000-08:00

Sisters = Love

please ignore the smear-smudged writing says:
GO DRESS SHOPPING WITH MEEE. please please

And last night Mandi suddenly called after training to ask me to go Far East to shop with her and her Former IJ-Dance friends.
Haha.

SJI vs RI rugby match today.
PE this morning was crap, HAHA.
Iddie should stop being so lazy and random.
Iddie should go for liposuction!

2007-03-01T12:47:00.000-08:00

Low register and running notes

I'm bored and freezing and have a Biology makeup lesson to do later at 3, so what the hell am I going to do from now till then?!

Watched Sorry, Teacher again just now in the Music Studio, where I still am and trying to relieve my oh-so-very-bored brain and mind and soul and body.

See, my life lacks content, can't you tell?

Anyway I don't see what the big deal is about us little TA kids playing in the A Division tournaments because if last year we all proved that we can handle it, why not let us go on?
Sheesh.

And yes, Amelie is indeed a very weird show, but it all starts to piece together at the end anyway. Iranian film coming up I think? But it's going to have to be the lecture parts first before we watch the next two films I think.

I think alot.
It is uh, March, day one, and there are 305 days left to the end of this madhouse.

2007-02-28T11:19:00.000-08:00

Rahh, it's been a pretty dead morning, except for Amelie which is I would say, a pretty weird show.

I have cheque for $280 for my piano lessons in my wallet and I'm thinking, why waste all that money every month chasing what could possibly turn out to be a disaster?

Smack that?
Drat that.

2007-02-27T22:42:00.000-08:00

Training today was rather normal, except for courtwork.
I'm getting rather scared.

I haven't gone for my round-the-place run in about a wee. Stupid Iddie, stupid Iddie ):

I'm so annoyed at EVERYTHING on the planet, sheesh.
Get a grip.

2007-02-27T08:44:00.000-08:00

Aww (:

2007-02-26T23:01:00.000-08:00

I'm not...disappointed.
I'm not...angry.
I'm not...upset.

I'm just dissatisfied with the fact that I will not be playing this year.
That's all.
Dissatisfied would be a rather...mild word to use, wouldn't it?

Damn.
And what with the Diploma forms out and pressure to submit on time.
And practise and no more disappointing.

No more everything.

2007-02-26T07:19:00.000-08:00

I think my tablet has the same problem as Slow's now: battery running out too easily.

So, today marks the start of the 2 elective weeks. World Cinema looks promising, but I keep wondering what I'd do without these slack electives. ACK.

And there's a History assignment to hand in. Damn, I only remembered when I shut down my tablet last night.

I miss, too many.

And really beginning to ponder over whether this will actually work out in the long term >:(

2007-02-25T19:12:00.000-08:00

Mass this morning was ohkay, I think my voice is going to go soon ):
And Father Andrew needs English lessons!

Oh well, as most people would have noticed, I've changed my box alignments and picture, but I think I'm going to change the picture again soon, yepp. (:

This fasting thing this Lenten season is working out fine, test the soul, yo :D
And now, Daddy is trying to find Greek names to fit Chinese surnames.

Plato Wong
Pythagoras Ng
Socrates Tan

W-ell, you get the idea.
GET AVENGED SEVENFOLD OUT OF MY HEAD.
Siddharth, I am going to kill you for making my head spin with this secksay shit!

2007-02-25T05:50:00.000-08:00

It's 0549 and I'm up on a Sunday.
I took half an hour to get to sleep last night, and awoke at 430 this morning.

And I think the drums in Beast and the Harlot are sick.
SICK, I tell you!

Go listen to it or something.

It's 0550.

2007-02-24T17:33:00.000-08:00

Someone tell me why the eczema on my right forearm came back? ):
Training yesterday was ohkay, did 2.4km, LADDER made me feel like an old woman, then it medicine ball and slow suicides which are so much more tiring! I did like, 6 or 7 sets of slow suicides I think.

This morning, awoke at 830am, then it was slacking till 10 when Milli and I left the house for Church for ROE practise and then at 2pm it was the Mass itself. Pretty pretty (:
I miss Father Joe, I just realized!

And while Milli and I were walking out of Church we got honked at and I couldn't figure out who it was in the car but later on the bus I got a message from Mr Geraint Wong saying 'Hey Iddi! It was me in the car who honked at you just now but guess you couldn't see me though..'

HAHA this guy was the one who gave me my A1 in English in Secondary 2. Look where I'm at now. ):

I just realized ever since I knocked my head on the floor, my mind seems cluttered and I can't join ideas together and once I start saying something, I forget what it is I wanted to say... ):
MEMORY LOSS oh no >:(

And I just re-remembered, there's HEROES on later at 7pm! Mummy says it's a must-watch, 'damn shiok!' Haha family is love.

2007-02-23T13:00:00.000-08:00

Ohkay, History can go live now. Now Daffodils has to wilt.
POO.

Oh yes, I did a revamp on the songs in my shuffle, YES :D
I now have Invincible and Hysteria and Forever and Beast & the Harlot and all I need now is to transfer my 2 Jesse McCartney songs.

And Ximin, please take care of that shoulder (:

2007-02-23T11:24:00.000-08:00

HISTORY GO AND DIE!

Ohkay it's the only last piece of homework that's plaguing me right now and is due in 36 minutes DAMN.

2007-02-22T22:09:00.000-08:00

Yes, Hansel, it's been another sleepy day!
Brr, with a load of work to complete, and I still haven't completed it :
American Idol's on now, my left eye still hurts when I blink but anyway. I've got my Language Arts file settled --> Hey, it's the first time I've filed properly ohkay! and I'm thinking if I should do a total revamp on the songs in my Shuffle.

On another note, the most delicate beautiful red roses, when they die, turn into crispy purple works of art.
And fake recycled flowers? They do last. :D

I want to own Simon Cowell's woolly grey shirt.

And they remixed Sia's 'Breathe Me'?!
What the, a sad song like that one should never be put with a congo drum!

2007-02-21T21:27:00.000-08:00

It's been a sleepy school day ):
And my eyes are burning and my left eye hurts when I blink.

IDDIE, PLEASE GET SICK. So you won't have to go to school for the rest of the week and come back in time for World Cinema.

Heroes tonight at 1230am.
Oh, yea.

Come as your are, why stand alone?

2007-02-20T22:47:00.000-08:00

Lunch was scrumptious today.
Mummy's cooking + Microwaving frozen food = YUM.

Then to Mon's house with Milli, chatted with Mel for awhile. Thank GOD; it's been the longest time, you long-legged woman!

Then Uncle decided to give us a lift to Chris's house (:
We all watched Step Up and boy I'm so jealous --> those people can move. Anyway I couldn't help but wonder, what was going through Channing Tatum's bisexual mind when he was kissing the girl. Did he wish that if he turned round, there would be uh, Chad Michael Murray puckering up or something.

Then dinner! Was great. Then up to Chris's room with Chris Joseph and Mike to have a little talk.

Then at 9 I obediently got up and got ready to leave then got delayed till 915 and then in the end I reached the bus stop at 920 with Mike recounting The Hot Chick to Chris on the way and at the bus stop.

W-ell. Home is always the best place to be. It's the only place with a bed.
And I don't want to go back to school tomorrow.
RED is in. Green blouse, skirt, tie and badge; whatever.

AHH, I feel like freaking dancing. Or trying to, at least.
Twin better fix his chipped tooth. He woke up with a chipped front tooth. Seriously!

2007-02-20T12:28:00.000-08:00

I spent 75 minutes doing 8 fugging questions on Differentiation for Maths-A.
Wow, Iddie, since when did you start caring about doing every single question?
W-ell.

Today it's at home for work, lunch, then to Mon&Mel's house, then to Chris's (:
I love this holiday period.
It's like, RED.

For you are forever

2007-02-19T23:24:00.000-08:00

2007-02-19T13:37:00.000-08:00

From 830am to 930am, 1030am to 1230am, I have finally finished the 30 questions on Factor Formula. HAHA I feel so intelligent now?

Woke up at 7:07 from some stupid weird scary dream (no it does not qualify as a nightmare) and went for a run, only managed to cover 3km this time instead of the 4.5km the night before Road Run. I think I run better without music.
But anyway, the knees were being sick again.
My Girl on Channel U now, Pizza for lunch just arrived, wow this is a gorgeous second day. <3

2007-02-18T22:01:00.000-08:00

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!
Give me angbaos, please (:

More photos with Sandra Lau; OI, COME ONLINE AND SEND ME LA!

2007-02-17T13:48:00.000-08:00

2007-02-16T22:58:00.000-08:00

ROADRUN!
I got 3rd. :D

Never in my life would I have expected this. (:
Thank you Debbie for encouraging me at the start, Mike and Ximin too (:
Thank you Rae for running with me when I stopped.
Thank you Ali and Miaoru for making me start running again when I stopped again.
Thank you Peiyi's sister and Peiyi too for telling me to keep going with about 600m left and my legs were close to dying.
Thank you 2E/06 Deltans for having such faith in me (:
Wow I seriously did not expect 3rd.

Oh by the way, Debbie won our race, Peiyi got 2nd, and Xiaowei got 8TH; I'm so proud of that retard girl (:
And Grace got 2nd for her race. Some bouncing girl got 1st but I daresay, her leg muscles were scary!

After the entire thing, went to Junction 8, caught Epic Movie with the bunch, but before that, on the 31, bumped into Ryan Po! Haha, my bus friend (:

Epic Movie was nothing short of slapstick, and Chris's laughter was nothing short of slapstick too! But anyway, oh YEAH, Chris and Mike gave me a rose and 2 hearts today, one of which was stuck onto a ring, aww (:

Then to Ben's house and lazing around going to the playground and sitting on monkey bars and [Mike asked me to blog about his pro-ness in soccer] Mike is like, better than the rest. Except for the time that he kicked the ball in my direction so high it hit the bar and narrowly missed my legs; SHOCK AH.

*On the phone:
Mike: Woah you know ah, I pass to Sam then Sam score leh! I had like so many assists lor.

Sigh, there's the man who calls himself Thierry Henry's twin :D

Ran from playground to playground and back to Byrne's house because we (Nicole Chris and I) were so confused about which playground we were supposed to go to and the rest of them who wanted to go (Leonard Casper Marcus and bunch) but never mind.
Came back, played some stuff on the piano YAY and Leonard the mop-hair guy was like, I'm seriously amazed. Haha.

Then Patrick played and we all sang 'When You Say Nothing At All'.
Before that, watched the D&D video that Angie made, aww it was so sweet it made me nostalgic ):

Blah blah blah, the normal stuff you do at a barbecue and then Ryan offered us a lift home. It's cool to have friends who live near you man (:

And I swear if I could, that Ben Sew and Leonard are long-lost brothers!

Right, I'm off to get my sleep. And take this: I'm never going to stop running ever again. Goodbye, legs :D

Ben Sew says: "You sing it best, when you sing nothing at all!"

2007-02-15T20:22:00.000-08:00

I've gotten my haircut! My fringe is shorter by about 2cm, and that's alot, and my ponytail is now... a little tuft of hair. Or something.

Road run is tomorrow, and here's what's up:
-{ Left inner thigh feels weird
-{ Left knee feels like there's something blocking it
-{ Right knee hurts on the outside
-{ Right lower thigh feels weird
-{ Both knees are super suan
-{ Both shins feel unstable

Oh, great. 3.6km on these, if I manage to finish without walking, it's a miracle!
Oh yes, happy birthday to the smallest cousin Sean (: You're 7!

Today was a funny day, and I love Chao Chia & the Chocolate Pants.
WAHA ohkay that was mean.
Anyway today marks the last presentation Moo-Moo are going to do together, sigh ):

2007-02-14T23:03:00.000-08:00

Yum, toasted bread with butter and sugar plus a TetraPak Chrysanthemum Tea is the ideal dinner at 11pm after training.

And the ice pack has melted and my knee is now numb but both the insides of the lower shins are giving me problem. SHITE give me new legs before Road Run man.

Now instead of posting short paragraphs, I'm posting long separated sentences!
I'm so screwed if Marcus Tan sees this. I can imagine him giving me the *look*, like the one he always gives Nicholas when Nicholas does something... Rupert-ish.

Haha.
Toasted bread + butter + sugar = YUM.

Just couldn't resist saying that once more :D

Honestly, what will become of me?

2007-02-14T09:46:00.000-08:00

Even on Valentine's Day, Siddharth still cannot resist the use of the word, fuck.
Haha, amusing.

So today being the 14th of February, it's a chocolate madhouse in here!
Every single second I'm reaching for M&Ms, Yupi sweets, and rereading cards over again.

Happy 14th February, everyone.
It's the only day that you get free food and you're allowed to eat in class.
THAT's the big deal about Valentine's Day.

But what am I supposed to do during the 2 free periods later? No one does homework in home clothes... right?

Well whatever, I actually think I got my Maths tests right (:

2007-02-13T09:55:00.000-08:00

This is what happens when Shiao is addicted to pinch my cheeks and when she's feeling stressed and I'm feeling nice. :D

Well well this morning's PE was an eye-opener.
3 kilometres and I ran and walk and still came back with 13:35.
I must say I'm happy.
I just need a run I guess.
Friday's coming. SHIT.

Chinese is utter slack.
Language Arts is next. Violin at 5, Math Test from 3 to 4. HOW AM I GOING TO PULL IT OFF?

Oh yes, Yahan's back in school; hello Yahan (:

2007-02-12T21:05:00.000-08:00

Biology is done, with 3 hours and 5 minutes to the deadline. Thank God.

Now, it's time to hit the showers when I actually thought of hitting the road with Mummy's Mizunos and then after that it'll be the newspapers and more thinking for me.

I want a Grammy, all for myself. So I can shine and polish it all day till I can see even the smallest blackhead in my reflection and not do anything else.

Milli said today that "It's scary to sit in a roller coaster and not know when it's going to stop."

I second that. So if life is that roller coaster, why not just hop off it?

Anyway training this morning was sad for me, I kept banging into Judith, shit. Iddie sucks shit because Iddie's going to injure every single player in the future ): But anyway. The run before that was short, and nice. Just what I needed.

Shopping with Mummy after that, then back then work and teatime with the parents. Then it was work. Again. Some day off, huh?

Not ready to make nice

2007-02-11T22:51:00.000-08:00

It's called, not being good with words and having to write them down instead of vocalizing it.

I'm tired.

And I know it's not the lack of sleep we're talking about here.

Why the hell is 'All Good Things' on repeat on iTunes?

2007-02-11T21:06:00.000-08:00

This morning was pretty alright, I guess, what with half-naked old men and little babies and girls who spend their morning watching their sisters sleep and people who inject stuff into themselves and stupid dogs and yes, the horrendously hilarious doorbells!

Working with Shirleen Low and Clarence was good (: Clarence kept snatching all the newspapers from me! TSK. Like Siddharth said, "Wow Iddie's a strong little girl."

After that, met Mummy & Mama at Somerset MRT and went to shop! Met Milli & Mandi later on and boy, it was pretty fun but I only found myself a top ): Red long sleeve, nice! Going to get myself my own trampy taste of clothes after training tomorrow, HAHA striped woolly long-sleeved things, here I come!

Maybe not.

I still have a Biology assignment on DNA replication and 4 Language Arts assignments to do. And the first site for Biology assignment WILL NOT LOAD. How dumb is that?
And we have to visit the sites in order -.-

Alright I'm off to offload pictures from my phone into my little Tablet now (:
No school tomorrow, I'll see everyone else on Tuesday then. DANG, Road Run is in 5 days. For my lower shin thing, it's make or break. PLEASE BREAK! :D

Rally round, get to me will you?

2007-02-10T13:30:00.000-08:00

Is this it? Is everyone going to quit now?
After all the years we spent together from Primary 3 or 4 or 5, those that joined us in 2004, is this it?
Is everyone going to quit now?
Everyone falls, we all suffer setbacks. I know you know.
But see, the deeper the setback, the higher you have to climb to get back to where you were, and when you climb high, you get strong.
Climb higher, get stronger.
We all have to learn to keep going, never giving up, even though it seems as though there's nothing left to work for. But there is. I'm telling you, there is.

Jeez, I don't know what to say to comfort you guys, I only wish I were there.

Don't quit.
Don't stop.
Passion is fire that can never be put out.

SNNB/Ggems

<3

Damn. Now my thoughts are so disorganized.

2007-02-10T12:47:00.000-08:00

Everything on our own

Woke up at 10 this morning, with about 10 hours and 30 minutes of sleep. Oh, glorious Saturday, you are my motivation. :D

Spent the entire morning recording I Will Be Here and Arise, My Love with Milli, and WE FINALLY DID IT! Yea babes (:

It's funny how I seem to care sometimes, but yet inside I feel like I'm doing it half-heartedly. What kind of a daughter, friend, sister, whatever person am I?

Have. To be. This all the time. Yes?

(: ?

2007-02-09T20:51:00.000-08:00

2007-02-09T20:16:00.000-08:00

I came home after finishing my Language Arts Individual Reflection (the presentation was stupid!) and iced that part of the leg that's on the side, like between the shin and calf. Then went for a 2.4km run around the place, did 50 situps, and tried to do pullups while my shoulders were like, dropping off so in the end, no pullups for me ):

O Level results are out; Ryan got 8 points, Andrew got 9, I'm wondering how on earth people can actually get so smart!

Iced my leg again, gosh it hurts ):

But then again, it's a Friday, and I hope I have all the sleep I can get from tonight till tomorrow morning.

This morning's walk from the house to the lift sucked. I was so tired I can't even remember what happened but somehow I suddenly couldn't breathe and I started crying. Too many late nights? I can't believe I'm that freaking weak.

Language Arts lesson today left me in stitches, and so did Higher Chinese, which was spent shouting and making funny noises into Slow's tablet microphone for the speech recognition training. HAHA is the only way to put it right now because I'm too lazy to recount. :D

Heart and soul, I'm breaking out

2007-02-08T12:34:00.000-08:00

And History is finally over! We've gotten it over and done with (:
A pat on the back for all of us. Now we have left... Language Arts [John Keats], Social Studies, and History Powerpoint TWO. >:(

But overall today's been rather good to me (:
So far in about 4 hours, I have:

-{ Mashed onion to a complete pulp
-{ Spooled strands of DNA
-{ Smelled my fingers dozens of times
-{ Laughed like shit with Slow at Clarence and Ellery's funny languages
-{ Did a lot of differentiation
-{ Managed to run up the wall for about 0.2seconds!

Right, Higher Chinese now, I'm buzzing off.

2007-02-08T01:30:00.000-08:00

I FINISHED THE HISTORY POWERPOINT!
Thank you, coffee :D

--> points to the time

But for now, good night world, and good morning lovely (:

2007-02-07T23:45:00.000-08:00

Training somehow beat the guts out of me today, even though we didn't even do much.
My legs couldn't move and my knees were kind of giving way and I think if we played two more quarters I'd have died. ):
But still, managed to intercept some today, I love playing defence.

Civics today was great; we played Murderer & Detective. YUHANG! The best straight and innocent face I've seen on a guy EVER; he managed to convince us he was innocent with that little 'plea' of his. :D

And I got killed ):

Speaking of which, my eyes are killing me ):
Don't. Close. Don't. Close. Don't. Close. Don't. Close.

If only chants would work ):

2007-02-05T23:34:00.000-08:00

Was supposed to have SportsXcel scholarship interview tomorrow.
I think I'll screw up again. My knuckles will automatically freeze, and then my hands will automatically, like a robot, move to crack those frozen things.

Right. Ohkay so training today was a good one I guess (:
Xiaowei Peiyi Kesleen Amanda and I did 5-people windsprint for 4 rounds because the rest didn't want to, and boy, I think 5-people windsprints are the best thing ever :D
Except that my calves kept threatening to cramp up everytime.
Then Amanda Amal and I went completely nuts during ballwork.

But my defence as WD was better today I think (: But when I play WD, I can't pass. When I play C, I can't defend.
WHAT TO DO?!
Right, ohkay so I'm off to finish up whatever shit that's left.
Yea baby. :
It's best you stay away for now, the minor key will return

2007-02-05T07:56:00.000-08:00

Be your light

My head still hurts from that knock on Friday at StNicks training, AHH!
And so does my neck.

Language Arts presentation is finally completed, I hope, and so's SS assignment.
I spent almost the entire day yesterday looking at the computer, and I was so tired by 1130pm I'm wondering now how I ever crawled into bed conscious.

Gosh. And I actually managed to wake up by myself at 515 on the dot without any disturbances or anything. And went back to sleep.
Jeez, I need another sleep-the-day-away break.

My head still hurts.

Just to catch you smile on this line

2007-02-04T13:42:00.000-08:00

So, I'm one third done with my Social Studies essay, 3 quarters done with the Language Arts presentation finalised, and Biology group project meeting this morning was rather productive (:

Maybe I should just go for Saturday masses permanently.
Shoo, Iddie, shut up! You belong to Sanctus Spiritus, alright.

Eczema, eczema, you poisoned my skin ah.

Moo-moo breakfast at MacDonal's this morning made us all happy cows, I guess. None of us were stupid enough to drink milk, I mean, we're moo-moos after all :D
Hope Yahan and Clarence do well at Surf&Sweat, especially Yahan; she had to to individual because her partner cancelled out on her!

Oh, and Grace is running too, GO GRAZZ! (:

Right, 19 more minutes to getting started on closed and mixed economy -.-
Mr Chao Chia, I actually care, LEH.

No further questions, this is all you have to know

2007-02-03T23:30:00.000-08:00

CA Core Team meeting this afternoon was rather productive (:
To Church after that, sat alone till just before Communion; I got the shock of my life! But the best shock of my life :D

Then to Joseph's house for his birthday thing, man, his Mum makes good pizzas, and Lou and Tilda make good Italian-bread-with-caramelized-onion and and and, Mike and Sam make a great pair at soccer :D

Group project meeting tomorrow morning, 8am at Bedok Interchange. You know, I might as well wake up the same time as Milli and Mandi.

Sigh.

Sorry, indeed, is the hardest word: to believe

2007-02-03T10:13:00.000-08:00

My shoulders definitely need a massage. Like, the upper half of the upper arm.
After running every single day for the past 5 days for the first time in ages, I guess it's the least I can expect.

CA at 230 or 3, Mass at 530, then I'm off for another fun time (:

9 hours and 30 minutes of sleep; this is the life, baby!

You're my coffee; sweet and strong

2007-02-02T23:47:00.000-08:00

After school, it was time for the nice trip back to StNicks.
I walked all the way from the MacDonald's bus stop to the Avenue 2 gate, because I didn't want to face those 2 grey heads again.
The lady at the other side was so much nicer, and the sticker she put on my file was ORANGE!

Haha.
Did ballwork with the Daisies, then played against the school team to prepare them for Anderson game. Whee, playing defence rocks, but I guess my style of play has changed.
Was nice working with Kelda and Jenna and Dion today, haha. I think the juniors are pretty cool, EH? (:

After training was to Mama house with Sandra Lau, in Godma's car with Kevin too.
First dinner at Mama's house in like, light years. Or something.

70's a big number, yo.

The cousins, minus Sean who came home later because he's finally in to Primary One, caught Beauty and the Geek. Heh, it was pretty amusing.

Came home, Daddy spent an entire hour showing me pictures and videos he took from the Philippines.
I have some conclusions to make.
Arnel = cool, I'm going to name my son Arnel next time.
Tita Gina = cute, with that cute face of hers always purposely scrunched up when she takes photos.
My 3 little brave cousins (or nieces?) = they walked from shelter to shelter during the typhoon and one of them wasn't even a year old. (1, 3 and 5 now)
Lolo's 9 little pigs :D = adorable. The huge one is really huge and I hope the 5 wandering ones of these nine do come back.
Lolo = Popeye! <3
Elizabeth Ann Dizon = lovely (:

Dang, photos refuse to load >:(
Right, it's off to sleep now.

Sometimes, when you try your best, and you still fail to achieve your goal, just remember, you still have me (:

2007-02-02T13:22:00.000-08:00

Sticking with something you've resolved to do, even if it isn't that much fun anymore (or even if it has become quite difficult!), is sometimes necessary. Right now, you will benefit greatly from testing your steadfastness and seeing how long you can maintain your latest stab at having more self-discipline. You have an admirable reserve of willpower that you have never fully taken advantage of. It's all there waiting for you to discover.

This is rather cool, how I was planning to give up speeding up the last kilometre of the day, how I promised to be good and disciplined till at least the 5th week and today's the end of it.

Go Iddie (:

2007-02-02T11:34:00.000-08:00

And, another one

A sudden desire to return to my roots and enjoy Westlife albums, HAHA.
I think Nicky Byrne is HOT. :D

Finally ran full PE today, I must say, I felt quite accomplished! Stayed rather up front with Ximin in the beginning because actually we started out in front because we started running first but we were both slacking like shitzers so in the end we were like, what, 10 people behind? But anyway, once we reached the slope for Lucky Heights which came all too soon, Ximin's ankle began to give more problems so I just went off first. The final 1km was shiok, really. Really.

I'd give anything to just, run the last kilometre again.
The moving of the legs, the pushing on, and never stopping till 10 metres after the line.

Whee.
I shall go eat orange bowl later, I think. (:
But I wanna go for track training! That's at 5. ):
Dinner at Mama's house later at about 7, SHE TURNS 70 TODAY!
So no track training for me anyhow.
The security guards at StNicks had better give me an easier time than last week. PLEASE, I will show you the yellow sticker you slammed onto my file last Friday, Mr Fatman.

Happy birthday Mama, whose hairstyle never changed <3

And we'll share all our tomorrows together

2007-02-01T22:14:00.000-08:00

School has been good to me today, and my new position has too.
Wing Defence, sweeper, good choice.
Grazz has inspired me today (:

Prison Break, till 1045, then bathe, then Prison Break AND Language Arts homework.
Gosh, Iddie is the ultimate slacker.

Oat Milk makes me happy, makes me feel like a baby (:

My knees are killing me when they bend ):

I saw Daddy sleeping on the bed when I came back, and I practically smiled to myself when I heard that familiar snore <3

2007-02-01T13:14:00.000-08:00

Right, I'm doing research on Ian Snodgrass now, because Milli suggested I could google him. Nope, I'd rather Yahoo! the guy.

Chinese is being stupid! I can answer other people's questions but I couldnt answer my own ):
Training later, both my knees are super tired even though I iced them already, and the place below where you normally get stitches? Yea, that's starting to hurt too ):

Milli & Mandi are both down with gastric flu.
Daddy's flying back today, landing at about 3 plus.
I want to skip MEP just to go fetch him (:
But I can't ):

Class lunch later near Ellery's house? Haha, the discussion was amusing.
I love Hasim for not coming.
And so does Slow :D

I lost my SportsXcel application form. That means the photo is gone too.
Shit, I can't hand in without a photo!
Oh, I just found it. It was a really glam procedure, what with my EdnoLand K1 Certificate slamming right into my face when the big big big gust of wind blew. But anyhow. I GOT MY FORM BACK from the dead.

It's nearing the end of Week 5.
Does that mark the end of Iddie's guai-ness?
Jeez, I would really love to find out.

RK House and Hokkien Bond! WOOTS :D

Tell him it won't be long till he opens his eyes

2007-01-31T19:05:00.000-08:00

Civics was a blast today :D
Like, really really fun; 2E/06 now understands the 'MM, MM!' language :D
Contact time was in LT2, and the stupid air conditioner wasn't working so what the hell, I fell asleep for 5 minutes and boy, that felt good.

Bused home after that, played piano till about 530 and went downstairs to the park.
Gotta keep those legs moving, ya know!
Did 6 x 400, plus 2 sets of 30 unassisted situps, attempted to do inclined pull-ups BUT, the bar was too high. -.-

Well. I am going to gradually increase to 12 x 400 or 6 x 800 which means 4 rounds around that stupid thing. Gosh.
OR maybe, I'll just go round the entire surroundings and cover about 4.5km (I MEASURED from the Street Directory!).

Once again, all talk but no action?
We'll see.

Oh, oh, and site of the day:
http://myheritage.com, sign up, and see which celebrities you actually might resemble! I match up with people like Zoe Tay, Jay Chou, Justin Chatwin, Ayumi Hamasaki and others. Go see :D

Forget about what I started

2007-01-30T23:21:00.000-08:00

Out of this

Watching Seinfeld with Mummy right now. (:
Training was great today, even though the run sucked; my knees just killed themselves.
Damn.

Played WD for 2 quarters and C for one quarter. I must say, I'm pretty happy with the way I played but of course there's much more room for improvement and I'm going to seek that room, I swear, so that I will make the team.

Going to back Tampines (say tam-pai-ns) with Xiaowei was retarded. It always is :D
NO PORK NO PORK!

Reached home close to 11, had a Yakult and a Granola bar, and a bath. Off to do Bio research now.
Language Arts, Math A and Biology are sucking the life out of this little warrior here.

And to ELYSIA:
I'm not really in favour of the idea since 1A/06 was last year... But if the majority are in for it then it's ohkay (:

2007-01-29T22:34:00.000-08:00

The beginning of training sucked today, I should've known better than to eat that Laksa. Puked after my 1.2km when we were supposed to do 2.4km.
But wasn't feeling too good before that either.
Sigh.

PE tomorrow, training too, training on Wednesday, word is that Coach is going to do team selections.

You know, I'm scared.

And Kah Mun has really good eyesight.
I had been crying last night.
Right, off to do Bio research now. Home is where the Internet works.

Oh, but God I want to let it go

2007-01-28T22:00:00.000-08:00

Silence is not an option

I'm such a pig.
Ate so much, promised myself to run, but chickened out because of the chill and my track jacket is in the wash so I can't run with it.
Damn.
If only, Daddy was just a LITTLE smaller, then the bike he bought would've fit me too.
Damn.
If only, I knew what was going on over there, how (exactly) Lolo's doing.
Damn.
If only, I'd get my act together and stop whatever I'm doing now.
Damn.

Here's what I did today then:

-{ Maths, Circular Measure
-{ Language Arts, newspaper cutting #2
-{ Language Arts, newspaper cutting #3
-{ Language Arts, newspaper cutting #4
-{ A close-to-2-hour nap
-{ Compiled Language Arts presentation
-{ Flipped through a copy of NewsWeek (WOW!)
-{ Managed to catch 3 movies & The Dance Floor (For the Love of a Child, War of the Worlds, Bee Season)
-{ Remembered Mandi's order for Tuna Ciabatta with egg, pepper and salt
-{ Pissed myself off doing practically nothing all day but slack & whine

Oh, tell me I'm a slacker, a couch potato (ohkay technically I should be called a floor potato), whatever, I don't really care anymore.

I think...I think that's my problem.

Even the strongest people have limits.

2007-01-28T12:03:00.000-08:00

28/337

The weather is so cold, both my forearms are cramping up.
And gosh, it hurts, IT HURTS.

Finished another Language Arts newspaper cutting today, going to get started on Maths, Circular Measure soon. Then, newspaper cutting, maybe a run, then newspaper cutting.

Maybe I should cut my hair.

Ack, I want...I want too many things.

2007-01-27T23:39:00.000-08:00

Tired is the word I am about to use, and tired is the word that has most often been seen in my vocabulary. I can vouch for that.

Tired.
Here's what I did today.

-{ Maths, Differentiation
-{ Language Arts, 1 newspaper critical response
-{ Language Arts, do research for Presentation
-{ Language Arts, compile Presentation
-{ Music, Practised Violin for an hour
-{ Music, Pracised Piano twice, altogether for 75 minutes
-{ Stuffed myself with food

You know, it's not so much after all. I'm just lousy, LA.

A sad song just to turn it around

2007-01-25T22:46:00.000-08:00

Training was a good one today.
We had to run 2.4km, and actually I didn't want to run, and after my first 2 rounds I just totally gave up and stopped because I felt I couldn't push myself anymore and going on would be a waste of time.
Watched the rest run, with a growing desire inside of me to beat the majority's asses out there so I went out and did 12:07 in the end. Faster than expected, after this whole period of slacking and stuff. I swear, the next time, I'm going to strive for my first sub-12 in 13 months, and go back on the road back to my Mid-d state.

Jumped a whole lot today, I think I did well as a Centre today. My stomach hurt an awful lot though.

OH, OH, I lost 2kg in 3 weeks. There's no saying this is going to continue if I eat 2 fish fillets for lunch ):

PRISON BREAK!

You want to dance a little longer?

Show me a smile, don't be unhappy
Can't remember when I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
Just call me up, because you know I'll be there

If anyone else has seen the Campaign for Real Beauty advertisement and paid attention to the song.

Flyer distribution today was great, school was ohkay, and the brain is doing fine.

I'm actually feeling accomplished.

But the eczema is coming back.
And I need to start writing again.

Daddy flew back to Bicol this morning.

She tries to smile; tries so damn hard

Between me & a beer

Recently downloaded Picasa from Google, although there's not much you can do with it, it just helps you make collages and stuff, quite ingenius. Here's one on Church (CON3O6! + a little bit of Mel) and the Dizons <3>
Picture of Mummy and I got stuck behind though.

AAAND the photos disappeared >:( It's Chemistry lesson now! Thank GOD I didn't take Chemistry.

Knees are acting up again, if I was allowed to swear, I'd swear about how dumb rheumatism and arthritis are, and how stupid it is that the wind is so strong it might blow my knees to pieces. Make sense? And this is the time when you will raise your hands in despair, your fingers spread out in a fan, and go, 'Wwwwwhat?' Just like Shirleen and Clarence just have as Ms Liew walks away. Does she EVEN BELIEVE what she's teaching?

Right, I'm off to read My Sister's Keeper now.

For now, another excerpt from that book, since I'm so horrendously free and I think the world should enjoy a paragraph or two once in a while.

Jesse

It's raining.

I go outside, and start walking. I head down the street and past the elementary school and through two intersections. I am soaked to the bone in about five minutes flat. That's when I start to run. I run so fast that my lungs start to ache and my legs burn, and finally when I cannot move another step I fling myself down on my back and in the middle of the high school soccer field.

Once, I took acid here during a thunderstorm like this one. I lay down and watched the sky fall. I imagined the raindrops melting away my skin. I waited for the one stroke of lightning that would arrow through my heart, and make me feel one hundred percent alive for the first time in my whole sorry existence.

The lightning, it had its chance, and it didn't come that day.

It doesn't come this morning, either. So I get up, wipe my hair out of my eyes, and try to come up with a better plan.

All I have is paper and pen to remember you with

Anna

In our living room we have a whole shelf devoted to the visual history of our family. Everyone's baby pictures are there, and some school head shots, and then various photos from vacations and birthdays and holidays. They make me think of notches on a belt or scratches on a prison wall -- proof that time's passed, that we haven't all just been swimming in limbo.

There are double frames, singles, 8 x 10s, 4 x 6s. They are made of blond wood and inlaid wood and one very fancy glass mosaic. I pick up one of Jesse -- he's about two, in a cowboy costume. Looking at it, you'd never know what was coming down the pike.

There is Kate with hair and Kate all bald; one of Kate as a baby sitting on Jesse's lap; one of my mother holding each of them on the edge of a pool. There are pictures of me, too, but not many. I go from infant to about ten years old in one fell swoop.

Maybe it's because I was the third child, and they were sick and tired of keeping a catalog of life. Maybe it's because they forgot.

It's nobody's fault, and it's not a big deal, but it's a little depressing all the same. A photo says, You were happy, and I wanted to catch that. A photo says, You were so important to me that I put down everything else to come watch.

-{ My Sister's Keeper, Jodi Picoult

Of all the 4 books I've read, I still can't get over the way this book was beautifully written. Better than the rest.

Training was ohkay I guess, pretty slack today, but saw Yahan and Shiao running their guts out (ohkay not really, but they ran real long!) and I was kind of in awe.

School today was ohkay too, I guess. There's violin and piano tomorrow. The work better not pile on like it did last week. I've only just cleared it so I can see, a little.

Just maybe, I was made out of smoke

2007-01-21T19:22:00.000-08:00

and i got to see ED today! the girl still looks the same. hahas. all thankful for the time that i spent with her just eating macs, being super random and just hanging around choosing handsome apples at NTUC. hahahas. miss the time spent together so much so much. i almost forgot wad it is like to have someone always saying the same thing as you at the same time. still love you dear!

-{ Jenna Wong, January 19 2007, here

I read through the ke we were doing for Higher Chinese today. I tried to do Maths, I did some Maths, I tried to understand differentiation, I ate mints, I ate 2 fruits today, I ate Sandy's brownies, I ate muffins baked by Sandy, I ate alot.

I'm a PIG!

2007-01-21T11:49:00.000-08:00

Right, that above is horribly sad. Last year, I got a 2.62.

I'm in a down mood today, since last night. Damn, you gotta tell me when something's wrong, you know. It's not like I'd believe you if you said you were good and kept silent about everything else.

Left choir practice early today, my throat was hurting like shit, and I'm feeling a little bit off-colour too, like Twin would put it.

Going around the world half-blind isn't exactly the brightest idea at this point of time, too. And so is trying to do Math and staring at the questions and realizing you don't know how to do half the questions there. Damn.

Limewire, please, don't go against me like everyone else has today; give me some hope. Just WORK, at least.

I recognize that hand, it's a mix of yours and mine

2007-01-20T14:17:00.000-08:00

RIGHT I'm blogging from Chris's house now, we were supposed to do homework but
wound up watching So You Think You Can Dance videos instead, haha. But at least, I got some Maths done! Ohkay it's lunch now, I've fallen in love with Michael&Sara from Prison Break. They are, LOVERLY <3

2007-01-19T22:01:00.000-08:00

Took the knee out for a spin just now, it was working fine. Hoho, here I come, Tuesdays and Fridays and free periods (with no homework) and trainings! And yes, the entire group of blocks there, please, if you see some girl running her lungs out, help her catch her lungs and put them back in, thanks (:

Going insane in class keeps Shirleen Low sane. HAHA, I am about to laugh my head off, AGAIN!

- TWEEZE (twist, actually) the balloon
- It smells like a drink (drain!)
- And many other stuff too :D

Moo-mooing mudskippers are HOT, I love them, and Clarence, Yahan, Shirleen Low and Iddie Chantelle will use their strong modified muscular fins to hop across every single obstacle that stands in their way, YAY!

Today after school, bused the 31 to Toa Payoh, trained down to Woodlands, 901-ed to Singapore Sport School, said a couple of 'hi's, gave Jenna Mama a hug, ate some mints, did some Maths, and IN THE END, the match got postponed. To Thursday, 5pm. Oh, brilliance to the ultimatum. Went to Ang Mo Kio with Jenna and Jasmine (both Wong!s) and then to Central Macs with Jenna; WE ARE PIGS! ): I ate fish today, vegetarianism, come back to me! Then to the new FairPrice place, it seems pretty promising, the clothes there are PRE-tty hip (haha right, but they're gonna be expensive) and THE APPLES LOOK SO PLASTIC, I could hang them as ornaments on my Christmas tree!

Mama taught me how to pick apples today; and I ate one after my run, and BOY, I'm good at picking apples. (:

And here I thought it was something to wish on

2007-01-18T08:19:00.000-08:00

Right so it's Bio class now and the entire class is dead silent except for the whirring of the fans and the tap of the keys from the tablets.

Ufooo for these gay metal things.

Right. I'm still trying to come to terms with the fact that there'll be no more So You Think You Can Dance for the rest of the year until I don't know when, because it's so freaking addictive! No more Benji Travis Heidi Donyelle Allison Ivan and Natalie, the power 7. GRR.

But at least I managed to catch American Idol yesterday (: Just a little annoyed that they go for breaks after every 3 auditions. Cut me some slack and show me the good ones, dammit!

Anyway, for now, it's back in school, with an invitation to SJI to watch Joseph and Chris play rugby on Saturday, HAHA, I'd love to see that happen. :D
(WARNING: They might get pretty gay!)

And this means I quit believing

P.S. HAPPY BIRTHDAY AILIN!
God bless you on your 19th birthday (: GOSH, are you old, or what!

2007-01-17T15:26:00.000-08:00

She can't, she can't

Woke up at 9 this morning, it was super refreshing being so fugging awake after 9 hours of sleep.

Piano sucked really bad yesterday, no prizes for guessing why. Actually, I didn't know why either, maybe it's just the fact that I've been falling asleep in every single class the past day or so, it applies to even when I'm standing (violin lesson) and piano lesson.

Oh for the love of God, give me some COFFEE.
And a shovel to work off the load of Everest-high work.

Ohkay maybe the pile isn't that high after all; Iddie's just lousy.

Went to the optician today with Mummy to get our eyes checked, and boy, it sure was educational. The guy even showed me 4 pictures of my eye! My curvature is 7.4 and that is really low, normal people have something like, 8.something? And my pupil is distorted. Isn't that interesting? Haha, everyone should go take a look. Seriously. (:

Got Jodi Picoult's The Pact from Toa Payoh Popular yesterday; it's been a long time since I last read a book. Too long.

We don't have to talk, we don't have to laugh at all; I just want you here with me

2007-01-15T18:56:00.000-08:00

It's only over when we say it's over

>:(

That's how my head feels right now. The back of my head has never come this close to exploding before.

Sigh, my time is running out. February 16th is coming up, and I'm not doing anything to regain my stamina my momentum, oh Iddie you're such shit, all talk but no action. Hurry up stop getting your headaches already and start running!

At least I took one step closer to vegetarianism today.

So You Think You Can Dance Finale tonight! The Dance Crew guys could watch and pick up the steps Thad was trying to teach them and then we could have a Dance Crew gathering II <3

I'm trying to find something familiar about you

2007-01-15T09:52:00.000-08:00

Even if you cannot hear my voice, I'll be right beside you

School's been a drag. But playing with PowerPoint at least provides some entertainment. Friday nights & beloved weekends, please, please arrive.

2007-01-14T00:34:00.001-08:00

Worth the while

I hadn't seen Mike in 12 days and boy today was great (:
Basically after Mass, went for dinner with Mike Angie Jervis Chris & Hansel.

I think I cannot stomach Udon or Tempura because after that at about 11pm+, I got a stomachache.

After dinner was to Mike's house with Chris and Mike and we just sat around watching All That! (Britney Spears was really cute) and Billy & Mandy and Holes (some movie on Channel 5) and other stuff.

Then to Mike's room and then Chris Mike and I started talking, talking, and more talk. But it was a nice talk (: Don't know if Chris can please try to make more sense now.

Reached home at 1155, before midnight, hadn't exceeded my curfew yet.
Oh Iddie, you're such a genius, I love you.
NOT.

Ohkay so in 2 days it'll be back to mugger mood because school will restart in 2 days. Dang, I still have my freaking current affairs to find and do. GRR. >:(

Mass tomorrow morning again, I don't feel like waking up for it. And then again, getting up early in the morning gets me ready for school.

I've been typing in really short paragraphs lately.

So, brown eyes, I hold you near

2007-01-12T22:15:00.000-08:00

Does anybody hear her; does anybody see?

Damn, I hate it when afew people raise their voices at the same time especially when they're all friends and they're all exasperated because in the end all that happens is the voices get jumbled up in my head and I won't know what to believe anymore.

Blame it on the rain, the fact that I hate umbrellas, and tying wet shoelaces.

And 12 days, it's been that long, dammit.

On a brighter note, lunch with Dracus was quite fun today. Arguing that while I don't like my school skirt getting wet by the rain, I think umbrellas are sissy.

See, see, I think umbrellas are sissy. And I thought after 15 years you'd know me by now. Not that it's a big deal but I'm sorry I'm stubborn.

And another thing, never repeat to me the things that I already know and told you (and that's how you knew those things in the first place).

Damn I'm not making sense.
SHIT.

Where do I start?

2007-01-11T22:26:00.000-08:00

Mandi has canoeing training 6 times a week.
Unfairness; I want that too!

Anyway training was great today, even though it rained. I can do a jump split(s)! Or something close to that. Hooray for tyco-ness.

Prison Break's on now. Michael Scofield looks really weird with super black hair. And I cannot stand that guy lying to his wife all the time. Whatever, I still love Mr Scofield, he's mine. :D

Where did I go wrong?

2007-01-11T09:46:00.000-08:00

She is running,
a hundred miles a hour in the wrong direction

Daddy, here I am again
Will You take me back tonight
I went and made the world my friend
And it left me high and dry
I drag Your name back through the mud
That You first found me in
Not worthy to be called Your son
Is this to be my end
Daddy, here I am
Here I am again

Help me to turn back;
Run, get back.

2007-01-11T08:21:00.000-08:00

This happens during free periods, people. (: Look at my tie, I'm so guai. Or at least, it's higher than normal already. :D

Anyway it's double Chem for the rest of the class now, and here I am slacking away, tyco-ly guessing the right answers to Lin Lao Shi's questions in 2F's Higher Chinese class. Yes, I'm done with Partial Fractions, and that's due this Monday. I'm beginning to like this mugger me, I can go home and sleep all I want. More like, all I need.

No run for me this morning because of the rain and my knees are super suan and they're threatening to die any minute or something. Boo. School physio, please hurry up & officially open.

Damn, I'm getting excited over nothing. (:

2007-01-10T22:17:00.000-08:00

This is for you, for later

Last night was a mad rush. Well, not really. Dinner at Burger King at Changi Airport at 910pm, met up with Mummy then we went to rest our tired tired legs sitting down and waited for Milli and Daddy to arrive. Then after that Daddy went to check in and Milli Mummy and I went to Popeye's which is loverly and then Daddy came up too and I went to watch Popeye the Sailor Man after like 1938457145 years! Like, oh ma gawdxz (: Reached home only at 1230. Stoned throughout my entire bath but wait, that sounds retarded so anyway.

Today bumped into Dracus at the bus stop again, and we started talking about how far we live from TJ and comparing PDPs :D Then the first period was free because today we started the whole-year celebration of TJ's 30th anniversary. So Ximin & I went to the canteen and Dracus popped up from behind so we all "studied" together, got my little headstart in partial fractions. Which came into use later.

During Bio lesson today:

Clarence: I'm so hungry, sighh (this happens 3 times an hour everyday!)...
*downloads some pictures of burgers from Carl's Jr, Burger King, sets them as wallpaper*
Clarence: *stares* I'm so hungry, sighhh.

Like, whatever Mr Fat Badminton Man! Ohkay, actually, not fat, la.
Lunch opposite school, then back for Civics. 2E/06 is going to have a little play corner! Haha (:
PDP fair was fun, especially when we played against the big bullies Judith's friends Kenneth & Daryl and Glendon and co., haha. Ang Ziwei also!
And when Glendon saw me the first thing he did was squawk like a redbird and go 'Hey, how does the ice cream song go!' Haha. Reliving is the best thing we all possibly go through.

Rushed home, mad rush through the yearbook to find SOOOMETHING and then violin. Thank goodness I finally passed Ex 13.

400x12 tomorrow at 2 minutes? Oh, my knees, please do listen to my brain.
Speaking of which. I knocked my head against the wall just now, like, super hard, and it still hurts. I practically winced in pain for about 5 minutes. >:(

2007-01-09T11:24:00.000-08:00

This equidistance is killing me

Right so I'm sitting in 2E's Chemistry class. And I must say, I'm pretty glad I didn't take this subject. She gets pissed off so easily but doesn't show it so that kind of ups the tension in the atmosphere and I HATE tense atmospheres. Russell Peters to the rescue, anyone?

Did PE this morning. 1.6km run in 9 minutes with cockup knees, I'm utterly disappointed. Next time I am going to go faster because Naomi Tan said it won't hurt so much if I run faster. I wonder. Maybe my knees are just um, rheumatic? If there's such a word.

Right, I'm off to doodle and stone and do other stuff now.
AND then, from 210 to 5pm, I have all the time in the world to do more stuff. Thing is, it hasn't reached that time of the year yet where the homework pile is higher than Everest. Sigh, another monotonous day ahead I guess.

You're already a voice inside my head, "I miss you."

2007-01-08T23:41:00.000-08:00

It takes two?

The magic number (:
