Ahhhh haha okay I am acting like a spoilt brat. I must quickly go overseas and live a poor life and do my own housework and be independent!

SELF-WORSHIP IS THE WAY TO FALL FROM GRACE.

I still hate my hair but I've moped for 2 days and sadly I'm not harry potter so my hair didn't grow back. And no one else but me seems to really notice that it's even different -.- hairdresser, it's hard but I forgive you.

I still hate that fking hairdresser

My mum just made me get a haircut. And apparently the hairdresser didn't understand what 'trim' and 'don't cut too short' is, because he practically chopped everything off and I'm super pissed off right now.

I'm not stepping out of the house until it grows back. I don't care if it takes 10 years.

Shit I'm still in shock.

Just yesterday I was jobless, scholarshipless and still unsure about how I'm going to get overseas without killing my parents' finances.

Today suddenly I have a scholarship and a job.

Anyway yeah I've been very unwilling to take up a scholarship in the past, well cos I did want to practise. And I still dunno what I'm going to do with my degree in pub/nea/mewr (I'd probably end up doing alot of environmental law stuff haha). But then I told God on sunday He'll decide what I'll do, and yesterday that if He wants me to have this scholarship I'll take it. There can't be anymore reason how I can suddenly get a call yesterday and be offered today though my interview was crap, hmm?

I'll just have fun for the next 4 years and see how everything pans out after!

It'll be good, I know (:

And nick when we meet 10 years later I'll show you my life theory works!

11:00 AM

O.M.G

That was really fast but they called me back and offered me the scholarship.

10:10 AM

Haha I screwed that interview up pretty badly I think. But ohwell I made them laugh alot so at least they were entertained...

Yay I finally got a job! which = money to spend. But then that means I'm unavailable for the next 3 months ):

SIGH.

Everytime you think you can move on with your life something pulls you back to square one.

Anyway after not hearing for a few thousands weeks the pub/nea scholarship people tell me I'm shortlisted for the final interview haha. Oh well. We'll see how that goes.

Damnit NUS is making it damn hard for me to go overseas. They just offered to cover all my tuition fees (haha like their lousiest scholarship! the others actually give you free money wah) and now I dun dare to tell my parents what if they decide that it'll be a good way to save money ):

I shall worry abt that when the letter arrives.

Anyway been going out to people's houses alot recently. Okay actually only sarahtai's haha. Thursday afternoon nette giraffe yen maoting jev went over and we played badminton/tabletennis/tennis! Giraffe is damn fail at racquet sports haha but it's okay I still love her alot. We ordered in il picolo (I miss it, those school nights when all we had was il picolo pasta/pizza!) and watched TV until super late. Haha american idol is damn retarded nowadays! In a good way lah.

Today beanie suddenly said there was a guitar hero session at his house! So I crashed it aha. YAY I got to play the drums alot cos no one else seemed very enthu abt it! I love the drums set. We didn't know like 90% of the songs so we hummed through most of them. But we're a cool band.

Then I got persuaded to go over to sarah's house again, cos guitar hero ended rather early. Today was nette sabby yen giraffe juanhe unclehong nick bentay! AND WE PLAYED MERRI-GO-ROUND TABLETENNIS it's like the funnest game on earth. Even better than my badminton. For those who don't know this marvelous game, it's a multi-player tabletennis game where everyone surrounds the table and take turns to hit the ball as we rotate. Haha it was like all girls-against-sianghuat game cos he was being annoying. Yes anyway I ran around the table for 2hours I think, I'm still feeling abit dizzy now. Good exercise! (:

We should have more guitarhero/ tabletennis sessions, guys! Yay!

Yesterday was the 29ths' invest, and being the kaypoh seniors we were, a few of us went down to school to watch! Haha it's been a long time since I've had to wake up at such a terribly unearthly hour. There were quite a number of 27ths, giraffe nette sabby sarah yen jevon naing justin, and viv came later! Anyway wow we really ARE old already. I remember the pre-final night rush! When all the presents are undone and everyone's harriedly rushing to j8 as discreetly as they can, trying to finish their presents. Which remind me, SEAN ONG YOU STILL OWE IAN AND I OUR FINAL NIGHT LETTERS. You promised!

I miss council.

A few of us went to eat lunch together (jevon drove us girls to j8!) and watch Angels & Demons. Haha jev and I watched it already but the others wanted to watch it. It's good to have watched it before, I knew exactly when to cover my eyes when a gross scene came out. Lol during the adverts time there was this one for a horror film. When something creepy burst out, sarahtai and I instinctively flinched to the same side and knocked our heads! Then something creepy happened again and we both screamed :\ damn embarrassing.

After the movie it was still early, so we begged sarah to let us go to her house to bake something :D It's really good to have a guy around who can drive, you know? Sarah's security guard commented to jevon that he had 'alot of girls' in his car. Hahaha.

So.. we baked brownies! And while waiting for it to bake we went down to play badminton/ table tennis. I was totally coerced into exercising let me tell you, I was absolutely happy sitting in front of the TV watching mickeymouse on Disney.

Anw yeah we had fun (: Badminton is the only sport I'm ever going to play haha. And I'm totally sore now oho shows how little exercise I've had since napfa ended last year!

Our brownies tasted more like chocolate cake! But nice chocolate cake. Heh.

Tell me your secrets, ask me your questions
Oh let's go back to the start.

Just to feel
Your arms around me
Just to know
Your grace has found me
Just to hear
Your voice surround me
Calling my name.

I love my church.

I can't say I agree with many things the senior pastor preaches, but I'm glad to be in that place every sunday anyway. Can I say that the praise and worship is really great? You really cannot find such good praise and worship in any other church, trust me, I've been to many churches. Not even the charismatics come close. ALL the worship leaders have powerful and unique voices. (Jeremy and I always can't wait to see who'll be leading that week, we've got our own favourites) Even the backup vocals can sing damn well. The many drummers all drum excellently (hehe actually some times I get distracted watching them instead), the keyboardists, guitarists, bassists are all really really good. And they're all in plural, meaning there're more than one good player/singer for each portion.

It still amazes me how they managed to find so many talented people. Who're all really sincere in what they do, you can tell.

Why am I ranting about this? I dunno, maybe cos that's what I think every sunday. Haha.

I'm closer to where I started
Chasing after you.

I think I'll be studying overseas.

Unless something untoward happens between now till october lah.

So! Dear friends, please ask me out! Haha.

Anw I'm very afraid of not making any friends there, it sounds rather aloof ): Not that the people are snobbish or exclusive, but they're more inclined to stay in their rooms and study. Well okay after paying so much money to go over I guess that's what I'm supposed to do huh.

Is anyone else going to london!! I thank God sarahtai is going to imperial haha yay at least got someone around the area! (:

-----

Last night I was thinking about how much I missed the routine of the study period!

You know, go to school at 7, fall asleep in the council room until 9, wake up and buy a cup of tehping while waiting for the others to come. Then sean, nette, nick, ye wei and other random councillors would slowly appear, and once sean and wei are around= no studying done. Every 5 minutes, sean would throw down his pen and sigh about how bored he was, then proceed to pick up the guitar and strum for a good half hour. Or every 5 minutes ye wei would come up with some stupid random topic and we'd spend the whole time laughing our heads off.

I remember the school-catered dinners that were super nice! And staying till 10plus with wei, pretending to be studying when I actually just am too lazy to make my way home. Also those super productive saturdays, cos there'd only be me and nette. And the sundays when I accidentally oversleep and pon church (bad girl!), ending up in school.

What incidents do I remember most? The underwear thingy (I'm sure we all won't forget), bitch fights with hweeleong that scare everyone to death, the birth of the lame Cok family named after Kovan Kok our widowed father who has AIDs, the incestuous relationships between the family members, making the Mandy & Jie Ning Talkshow and having ashley as our guest speaker, ye wei and sianghuat arguments, trying to solve impossible questions, so many things!

I won't say I miss the mugging, cos I don't, but I do miss the company loads. Without these friends I'd definitely (probably) have been able to finish studying the syllabus a few months before or something, but then it'd have been the most boring and tedious year of my life. Haha so yes it's lucky that we all got good grades!

Hmm sudden random nostalgia brought about by insomnia.

Oh well.

-----

BTW I agree with what mandy said in a previous post, our SMU pass is the MOST USEFUL SHIT IN THE WORLD. Even though it's long expired haha it's like an ID that won't cost us 100 bucks if we lose it! I used it to borrow library books today, forgot that I changed my ezlink to adult already D:

Yesterday wanjoo reminded me that it was final night night last year. And yeah that brings back loads of memories, especially of oteam and housed! Sigh two of the things I miss most about rj.

And this morning I was rudely awakened at the unearthly hour of 1030am by a frantic mandy about nus law results.

Anyway I got in, and I really have to thank God for all that He's given me so far (basically everything I wanted) and also all that He did not give me (everything I didn't want but was coerced into applying). Now's the time for the hardest decision to make! Overseas or local. And of course, the ardous task of persuading my parents for father-mother scholarship.

Would it make me an ungrateful brat if I really wanna go overseas? ): Actually I'm not so sure now. What if I spend my parents' savings, then come back 3 years later and decide to be a taitai? Or to change profession? Or what if I can't find a job? Or if I wanna stay overseas (my mum will die)? Sigh. Tough choices.

With one turn your day is now my night;

Doneee.

Class lunch today lol with new convict ben! Another victim to the ns-talk disease.

Then mandy ye wei and I went shopping (okay mandy and I) for a short while. Sigh I need to be less broke ): Do you know how tough is it to buy clothes nowadays! I dunno whether to buy thin clothes for the hot weather, and if I go NUS, or to buy thicker clothes if I go UK ):

Ye wei and I went to the art bookstore (that benben intro-ed!) at bras basah afterwards cos the library was closed. And omg the drawings and paintings are all so nice ): I need to learn how to watercolor! And oil paint. And do digital art.. Maybe in my next lifetime. Haha :P
