i love my dog.




One of the best things that's ever happened in my life. That sweet lil' thing that's been with me nearly half my life, who doesn't care if floods of hot tears spill all over her fur when I cry, daos me when I refuse to offer her fruit, wakes me up every single morning, sings to the piano and flute, listens to me chant about DNA Replication and why Meiosis gives variation, and could love me no matter what I do.
I LOVE MY SWEETHEARTZ PHOEBE .

and um, HAPPY BIRTHDAY xiaodao. THE xiaodao from 5566, who else? I still remember their birthdays, some things just don't get out of your head even though you don't mind if they do.

and many happy returns to the one other person who could love me no matter what I do. shan't say who, you don't read this anyway but still, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY :)

see the similarity?

WHOOOOSH ME AND ZIYI MADE A VERY COOL OBSERVATION THAT XIAOJINGTENG LOOKS LIKE SPENCERRRRR!! (frm areyou smarter than a 5thgrader).

Hmmmmm.

Lit was scary. It wasn't disastrous, but it was total disappointment.

Loads of weird things happened today. Saw some um female gays in the train, and then walked past one of the xiao hai bu ben (that's i not stupid, in case you were wondering) actors without realizing it was him until I was about eighty metres away.

:D

till tomorrow.

when hedda meets octeo.

COME ON, HEDDA GABLER, FILL MY MIND!
lit tomorrow. hmmmmm.
*twiddles fingers nervously*

Today's geog learning journey was quite fun, the lecture was tolerable and the aircon in the bus ROCKED.
The bus is a good place to come up with all sorts of crap like moose land abundant in pink, strawberry-chocolate flavoured grass and loads of SLIMMING POOLS for fat mooses to get a daily slimming soak in, moose beer (MOO-ger beer) in i celand, and that all moose in Mooseland are in fact male and can only reproduce by being gay, and the midwives in Mooseland will forever be saying "IT'S A BOY, IT'S A BOY!" everytime a moose is born. And the gross-ness of moose milk, papaya milk and p/a/n/g/y/a milk! Ohmygawsh the stuff we come up with.

Oh yeah. HAPPY BIRTHDAY FIZZ AND DIY LOVE :)


i wrote a song i wrote a song! but the lyrics were weird, probably because i was pushing alot of frustration into it, which is why that song shall be a secret unless I do get to sell it or something.
sometimes I wonder if I will ever get to sell my songs to rockbands and chinese singers next time :D

will. write. a. song. for. wilberpanweibo. to sing. one day. provided. he's still. in. the music. industry. by. the. time. i'm. in my twenties.


I think I like softer light, like hedda gabler. Darkness is nice for me but a little light would do too.

with a voice of a thousand thunders screaming.

Emo period? Never. Since when has valteo ever, ever been truly emo?
Haiz. There's something wrong with me lately but I don't know what, it's something that troubles you so much even though it's not something worth really, really being all hot and bothered in the first place........


Anyway, church was total GREATNESS today. Got new pastor at last, and now the adults in church can never, never, never address Papa by his first name because now he has an erm "twin"- the pastor. heehee. :D
First time I ever heard myself singing in church choir. There's a serious shortage of girls here.
Oh and the message was um refreshing :D Especially with the M*LE thing going on today >: )


Maybe I shouldn't worry anymore, there's no point in worrying. Should I let things just happen and see how they'll go, or unleash the very dark and unseen side that no one should know? I don't know, maybe I could do both.

But youthprayertime today was assuring to probably all the problems I've had or will ever have in the world. :)

i want to live like animals.

Omgosh yesterday's World Bank Games was super fun, VENEZUELA <3
We got overall second because amelialory, xinqi, penny, chloe, jieying and me are SMARRRRRTZ. :)
Especially penny who stole a grand total of six breads from USA and something else from another country. My attempt at stealing = almost worked but didn't.

and those trainers had a really cool playlist which was playing over and over throughout the game, and I came across this cool song which made me remember that I'd been trying to find out what song it was since I first heard it in a school dance performance in pri3. ALL HAIL MY MEMORY.

THE ANIMAL SONG- SAVAGE GARDEN

When superstars and cannonballs are running through your head
the television freak show cops and robbers everywhere
Subway makes me nervous, people pushing me too far
I've got to break away
So take my hand now

Cause I want to live like animals
Careless and free like animals
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
the wind in my hair and the sand at my feet

I've been having difficulties keeping to myself
Feelings and emotions better left up on the shelf
Animals and children tell the truth, they never lie
Which one is more human
There's a thought, now you decide

Compassion in the jungle
Compassion in your hands
Would you like to make a run for it
Would you like to take my hand

Cause I want to live like animals
Careless and free like animals
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
the wind in my hair and the sand at my feet

Sometimes this life can get you down
It's so confusing
There's so many rules to follow
And I feel it
'Cause I just run away in my mind

When Superstars and cannonballs are running through your head
Television freak show cops and robbers everywhere
Animals and children tell the truth, they never lie
Which one is more human
There's a thought, now you decide

Compassion in the jungle
Compassion in your hands
Would you like to make a run for it
Would you like to take my hand

Cause I want to live like animals
Careless and free like animals
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
With the wind in my hair and the sand at my feet


<333333

more on gourmet sushi-twister and the super fun camwhoring time at learning journey, when I upload the pictures tomorrow or something.


and i just realised- i wish i could press rewind and go back in time to when there was syf practices last year. The time when I was still relatively free and high almost all the time.

I miss that loads.

Gourmet#1's Crash-Bash :)

Heehee yes willette wee i know you're waiting fer this! (:

Gourmet went out to lido once again to show the world how crazy we can get. No luh 'coz valsoh had free movie tickets again (kudos to her mum all around!) so we went to watch August Rush.
dorcas and I were left STUCK outside the cinemas at lido because a certain two people hadn't arrived from their math vivas yet.



GOURMET BETTTING!
At this rate, we can start making loads of podcasts with dorcas' phone I tell you. The entire mosburger must have heard us 'coz valsoh suddenly went "I BET THAT...." very very loudly when we told her to speak louder. Someone sitting opposite us gave us this :O look.
Willette's gonnna help us win our bets aren't you! ALL OUR BUBBLE TEA HOPES ARE ON YOU AUNTIE. so hurry up get a move on and get a boyfriend before any of the 3 of us do!


Thursday was the crashing bashing day! Totally crashed valsoh's house after swimming there and getting her velvety card all soggy and mauling dorcas' picture which happened to be on the wet and soggy part of the card, and BORROWING A LIGHTER FROM A FRIENDLY CONSTRUCTION WORKER UNCLE.

Here's what happened- willette forgot to bring the lighter but dorcas and I remembered to bring the cake and candles. So we went to ring the doorbell of her next-door neighbour's house three times but nobody answered. Undaunted, we went to try the opposite house because there was some renovation going on, and when there's renovations, there's bound to be construction workers, and when there's construction workers there's bound to be cigarettes so there's bound to be a LIGHTER >:D
We did manage to get one from an uncle who was highly amused by our failure to use a lighter properly. He had to help us light the candle twice because it blew out once. (:

valsoh were you shocked?! haha! We tried to make it as top secret as possible but *cough someone cough* didnt act very well hmhmmmm so valsoh said she sort of had a feeling we'd do something. But it was a nice surprise anyway!

We listened to our betting podcast over and over and over and over again and kept laughing, watched a whole load of rubbish on youtube and played SETS. Forget it all of us are really bad at it except valsoh who's played it so many times and is a mathematical genius anyway. (:

And I think I do much better in neopets cheat than GOURMET CHEAT. Always lose one, grah.


but anyway,
HAPPY BDAY VALSOH (:
my one and only moose-friend who sings billybrown and never gets tired of it! I've said loads in your card already so anyway much love to you! <333333

MARCH HOLEEDAYS

Hello world, the march hols are here (and nearly over, darn).

HAVE NOT REALLY TOUCHED HOMEWORK FOR AWHILE (: except chem thanks to uncle kenny.
Oh well shall start from what happened on Sunday then!


Sunday was kinda routine I guess, ate breakfast in plastic bags in the car with yiying, went to church, got super annoyed because the piano there was not fixed yet and attempted to get a little bit of ORA donations and ended up getting just $2 from kevin. eeeeeyer collecting money for four years is SIANZZZZ.


Then at night there was buffet welcome party for our new pastor so ummmmm daddy-dong and momma-(m)abel and I spent most of the nice peaceful buffet dinner hiding up at our secret hideout (which turned out to be not very secret) at the highest point of the playground. We ended up looking like thumbys (howd you spell that) trying to cordon off the slides and mini rockwall there. Extremely weird-o conversations took place up there man. We saw this lone guy emo-ing up at the balcony of his condo unit and daddy-dong's intelligence got heavily insulted by eshton's cute little brudder who was playing up there :D

Aaaaaaand there was this thing about tongues and knees which was super funny. not really though.

daddydong: Can you roll your tongue?
me: uhhh yeah o'course. *rolls tongue and folds it into that lotus shape that freaks people out*
daddydong: Can you -i forgot what- with your knee?
me: O_O


To which abel and I started laughing weirdly, and we were sort of trying to guess why we thought the tongue thing was so funny, leaving the world's favourite daddy-o very, very confused.

Then kevin came along (we didn't need to kidnap him in the end then) and we started explaining the tongue thing which led to more wrong channels which we totally didn't get until he explained it very clearly. which freaked me out i think. Hahaaaaaaaaar. It rained after that so dad mum and I went home : O


Monday was great too because that'd mean my MATH VIVA'S OVER, I finally understood all those chem stuff which I didn't really get from goodness-knows-how-long-ago, thanks to me uncle and his 'mazing tuition :D

BANANA OUTING! minus yunleng.
Grrrrrrrr ngyunleng why couldn't you have been there with us youuuu! Busy pro banana. ;)
Instead of watching a movie (didn't want to spend more money) yiying baofang and I had dinner at pastamania, walked about aimlessly at the open plaza before realizing there wasn't much we could do there in the dark, and went to the converse sale! Me loves nice stuff that goes cheap. We didn't buy anything in the end though. We tried getting seats at starbucks but it was so cold and crowded we went to coffeebean instead.

You people are the best luh yiying and baofang (and leng too haha). I was the only one who ordered a drink (hot chocolate), the two of them bought large cookies instead 'coz they were cheaper. Yiying went over to the counter where you can top up your own sugar and cinammon and stuff, and poured some milk for baofang and herself!

The waitress stared as yiying and baofang were dunking their cookie chunks in the milk (that was seriously meant for coffee i think).

Oh well, free milk then! (:

We spent almost an hour there just catching up and talking, which was really great 'coz we hadn't been able to do it since the annual banana barbecue last year! We'll meet again at dunmanh i gh's CO concert where yiying's gonna be VERY PRO in heheheheh.


and speaking of bananas.........



HAPPY SWEET SIXTEENTH BAO FANG!
my wonderful lovely 2nd oldest banana! (: thankyou for being there, being square and being one of my best-est friends an strawberry/octopus could ever, ever, have! now you and yiying can go watch NC16 movies. awwwww no fair!

<333333

ah fang's the one in the cooliozzzz phantom mask! :)


and also...

HAPPY TWENTY-FIRST ((: BIRTHDAY ELAINE (OH)!!! <3333


you never get tired of my nonsense at youth outings! (: (if you read this,) you're a great BSleader and churchpianist and choir-person-in-charge, and we must must must go eat free murtabak one day! :D


the very (unusually) sane-looking auntie elaine! :D
