Oh yes please

Did no one else notice how amazing it felt to sleep in this morning while the rain was pouring hard and fast and loud with the thunder roaring as if the whole earth was being shaken to its core?

Of course, all that amazing comfort was destroyed in moments just by the thought, the act of going to school. Luckily enough my mondays are pretty nice. and I ended at 11.30am this morning :> Unfortunately, I also realised that having too much free time on your hands breeds lethargy - something I unfortunately experienced myself while googling costume designs for our concert..

It started out as a bad afternoon but quickly it became absolutely wonderful as we started learning our batch choreography (by Jolene!) for the concert finale. I really really love our item and think that it's the most amazing shit in the world. It's so fun and I think we learned it at a fast but comfortable pace because we are all batchmates and there is little to no stress~

So everytime I'm being overwhelmed with the stress of not being able to complete learning all the choreographies etc etc, and just being too damn afraid of the concert drawing nearer, it's times like today that get me hyped up all over again. I'm so so so so so psyched and ready to take on the world.

Therefore, I must finish my tutorials tomorrow. That is all.

In other news, HERE ARE THE CUPBIRTHDAYCAKES I GOT FOR JEAN'S LOVELY 18TH:

omg they're such tiny images but they're actually quite high quality walao. i already took super long to upload this and i'm super tired so maybe i'll reupload them tomorrow!

goodnight!

A little push

My sister told me I should blog so I thought I would.

Today, I was watching these hair tutorials by LetsMakeItUp1 on youtube and I think her hairdo tutorials are very amazing hahaha because she always makes all the complicated hairstyles look damn easy. I tried re-creating the pretty little liar's hannah braided down-do but kind of failed cos I ended up braiding exactly what I always braid on my sister's hair when I feel like it... BUT IT TURNED OUT V PRETTY and she took a nice photo of it so here's the photo:

I think it looks super pretty and I think my sister has absolutely beautiful hair. It's super thick and healthy and I wish I could have hair like that so I can do shit with my hair too. Or I just wish I could detach my head/hair so I can do all this funky hairstyling without the arm-aches that come along with doing your own hair (ew no I take that back that's a disgusting sentiment)

Anyway, that above photo was edited with instagram.

I just discovered that instagram was a social networking thing too. I honestly did not realise that hahaha but now I realise I have some photos up too and and it's quite cool imho.

I also discovered evernote and I'm having a ball of a time archiving random shit like dream house designs and clothing designs and costume designs all on my new ipad and iphone and laptop (i am such a techno loser). and when I say archive I don't mean come up with designs I just mean saving photos from all over the place into little notebooks that synchronize across my different devices. it's just fun okay!!!

Like okay, I saved a photo of this sweater because I'd really really like to own it but I'm not quite sure whether I trust buying online goods or not but isn't it just absolutely gorgeous! I have a bias towards baggy clothing that makes me feel like I'm permanently draped in a large blanket and furthermore I imagine this would also make me feel like I am being clothed in outer space. So yes, I would like to buy this. Ah, heck I'm going to order it now.

no, on second thought I'll just wait a while longer and let this longing sit for a few good days.

In other news, my CT results are coming back and they are not good at all. I feel as if I should be a little more disappointed but one part of me knows I kind of deserve it anyway because my studying was infinitely halfhearted and definitely not determined nor focused at all. This should be a good wakeup call but I'm taking it so painlessly and I think that's bad...

NO I NEED TO START WORKING HARDER yes I do.

and it's no good that I'm discovering so many wonderful things on the internet. like online shopping (ya ok I'm very outdated ok. i took v long to trust online shopping hahaha) and and gmarket and scramble (omg) and food too.

ok that is all there's still school tomorrow I need to get back in the mood man it's already 1:08am. and it's a short week yay!

good night world.

Why can't I

just do this all the time. hahaha.

However, ladies and gentlemen, I am very proud to say that I finally managed to finish my literature assignment and just submitted it via email. Technically I already wrote half of it the last time I blogged but for some reason I was convinced sleep was more important. I wonderwhy...

ohya cos it is.

no la, I actually think such thinking on my part is extremely dangerous and self-destructive and I should try to get back into mugger mode. BUT IT'S SO HARD. I have no recollection of me ever being hardworking or willing to study... :(

I'd really rather be doing a lot of other things like 1) going out 2) shopping 3) eating 4) dancing 5) singing 6) sleeping

in fact, that is the order in which I would like to do everything, everyday.

A few days back I some bad stomachache, and I have no idea what caused it but I do have a good idea of what might have led to it. I dunno how or why but my appetite increased by like 3 times or something and I kept stuffing myself with food haha (there were a number of family dinners I think) and my increased appetite led to a lot of snacking and overstuffing and fullness which then led to stomachache for 2 days and uhh diarrhoea and discomfort and now my appetite is very tiny....

so anyway, my plan today was actually to finish my literature assignment and math assignment but I'm not on my way to being done with either (actually, half my math is done but based on trend data I'd say I'm only submitting it late tomorrow or on Monday hahaha). I feel like making random covers with our condenser microphone and I just rewatched an old video of me singing on facebook (it's private haha). The microphone quality is terrible and my singing sounds a bit painful when I hit the high notes ew cos the sound's so bad.

In other news, I'm very excited for our dance production on 4,5 May 2012!!! it's called AnyBody Can Dance and and we've been preparing super duper hard for it. That is all I'm going to say I guess because I wouldn't want to spoil the surprise.

just a random photo that I thought was nice and embodied just about everything I'd like to do with my life

I think after I'm done with this post I'm just going to take a shower and sleep instead of trying to do anything because honestly my mind is a blank and a blur

and I don't want to think anymore so...

goodnight!

It's been awhile!!

In just two months it feels like so much has happened in 2012. Just listing off the top of my head:

1. Orientation!

2. Chinese New Year

3. Dance, dance, dance

(o look, OCD hahaha)

and soon there will be

1. Auditions for new J1s

2. CTs!!!

3. STREET CONCERT!!!

As usual I am blogging because I'm trying to escape from writing my essay again (Mrs Lim, in case you ever chance upon this, you WILL receive the essay). But recently I feel like that's my favourite course of action...

I think that I've been very behind on work ever since orientation and I'm not sure how I was ever hardworking last year. I do remember being extremely organised and conscientious in my studies last year but it's so... last year. HAHA like literally. I need to organize my notes and everything and I need to catch up on my choreography in dance and and and....

sigh I'm so out of it.

For a moment I wanted to post pictures of everything that's been going on but but lazy.

Lazy should be my middle name.

Today and yesterday I have had a bad digestive system and I have been feeling unwell.

I have been stuffing myself with a LOT of food........

this is so disjointed I'm going to end it now.

happy valentine's day everybody!!

peculiar

It's 3pm on a Sunday and I am struck by the most curious sensation of having absolutely nothing to do. It's as if my options dissolved into midair and quite frankly, I don't wish to make any plans at all.

But what am I supposed to do to pass the time?

I could walk over to video king to rent a movie to watch to pass the time, but the popcorn maker has been stolen. What's a movie without popcorn?

I could go take a walk. In fact, as I was lying on the sofa just now, I thought of taking a long long walk to toa payoh, but the whole idea of moving made me feel tired all over again (pig, I know).

I thought of starting up a new blog. It's been awhile since I thought of doing that (I don't even know why). I think it's because I want to explore the different ways I could write.

(can you feel the lethargy in my voice right now?)

I could also go out and board a random bus (not that there are many, there are three) to a random stop and then to a random train station and take nice pictures there with my camera. unfortunately my sister has gone out with her friend and in my groggy state I (no, even not in my groggy state i would have) lent her my dslr.

It's rather unfair because I'm dressed rather nicely today even if my hair is looking like ultimate crap.

So what I'm probably going to do is to drink the soup that is here on the table next to me, then grab an ice cream from the fridge. I have Neil Gaiman's American Gods on the table too. I might read, or play temple run on my phone, or read lovely articles on thoughtcatalog.com, or tumblr.

or just troll social media sites all day.

or maybe, I'll be struck by another sudden desire to type something like and boring like this and I'll write another post tonight about my life.

taking an unlicensed break hahaha

egaddd you have no idea how badly i'm dying.

self-imposed incarceration. quite comfortable but nonetheless studying is so suffocating and stifling I CANNOT TAKE IT ANYMORE. you know how the closer you get to the end the worse it feels. It's like when I do my 2.4 and I'm at the last lap everything feels that much tougher.

ok so tomorrow will be my last paper and I should be using this last day for studying chem wisely but OMG SERIOUSLY I CANNOT because I'm dying just thinking about all the things I want to do post-promos ngah ngah ngah.

yesterday was amelia's birthday so I crashed her house with jesslyn and surprised the shit out of her because neither of us are supposed to know where she lives hurhurhur. it's quite sad for her I guess because she spent the rest of the day studying but it was alright I had fun hopefully she did too haha.

then I found out how badly i'm just dying to go shopping

SHOPPING

SHOPPING

SHOPPING

SHOPPING.

I can't even begin to describe it. I wanted to go to orchard last night just so I could walk into a store, like topshop or something, and touch the clothes (hahaha i sound like some addict) but omg :(

one more day one more day. I'm not even sure how I'll do for the exam tomorrow but seriously I'm just about to explode implode detonate from the suspense.

I want to shop

and watch movies (hehe last night I went out to video king and rented The Adjustment Bureau and Love & Other Drugs. I also got magazines all prepared for slacking hahaha)

and go take photographs

and dance

and play

this is the longest one day I'm going to have. I shouldn't even be online I'm halfway through a past year promo paper. I want to watch a movie now, actually.

Studying all the time makes me feel extremely obese (to all who're thinking shut up, you shut up :( ) because I'm becoming all flabby and glued to my seat. I hate running but last night I actually considered jogging JUST FOR SOMETHING TO DO.

I'm so anxious for promos to end.

end now pls I don't want to wear my school uniform i want to dress up ):

all hopeful now. less than 24h :>

Y'know

Just in case whoever still reads this thinks I'm suffering from severe chronic (does that even make sense?) depression or something, I don't. haha, it's just that I never feel a need to purge (my feelings) when I'm feeling happy. or something.

but I'd just thought I'd share this:

it's beautiful

This, my friends, is Goldkenn's Remy Martin liquor bar. which is actually very interesting because it's filled with actual champagne inside that delectable chocolate. I was surprised. This is also beginning to sound like an advertorial, which it's not.

Moving on.

Remember how it's during these most inappropriate times that I come up with the most time-consuming and retarded ideas? Or maybe just how I come up with the most time-wasting ideas when there is no time.

like, at this very moment I just remembered I have a lit assignment due tomorrow (I assume by midnight because there was no specification for time hehe), but I'm going to tell errbuddy about some fancy idea I came up with. It's hardly original, but I want to make a blog and post videos of my sis and I singing and doing stupid things (not exhaustive, of course, actually I'd open it up to anyone, we can share :> maybe.), partially because I finally figured out how nuffnang works (shut up); cos I figured, why not make the best of my youth and embarrass myself now instead of 20 years down the road when I'm too old and fat and wrinkly to do so?

but it's just an idea. I guess I was also inspired by the funny video of my mom and I in the car in the post below this one. hehe.

I have so many things to be grateful for, like how I'm an OGL now (excited!!!!) and how street is preparing for our concert next year and how I'm (hopefully) improving in my studies? That last one is a big fat hugeass maybe, but still, I'm hopeful. so my worries are just going to have to take a backseat, and hopefully they'll work themselves out.

no use worrying or letting things eat at you now.

I am looking forward to performing at some busking thing outside wisma on the 27th (next sat!) and also for teacher's day. I sincerely hope I do not screw up but I think I'll also take it in my stride, whatever happens. hahahhahahhahhaha fingers crossed.

AND GUYS I AM GOING FOR PARAMORE TMR FOR FREE.

just sayin.
