Epic-ness.

Life has been. pretty epic.

Amongst all the business, I realised I never did stop, look back and reflect on the past few months.

Only when Marilyn commented that day "Woah, its amazing how far you've gone, for a person who was on the verge of transferring out" (something..along those lines)

Recap, shall we?

January-O level results. Went for AC Netball trials. Much exertion caused the knee to practically fall apart. Med Meniscus tear, couldnt walk for a whole week, crutches for 2 weeks. Visited the specialist, took an X ray and MRI(God knows how much radiation there is in my system now) and hoped for the best. Things weren't good at all. It was a tough time, with scans showing me needed an op to fix the knee. Plus, rejection from AC after a week of waiting , after much false hope given.

However I looking back, I mustmustmust thank God.

jeremiah 29:11 says "For i know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future"

I thank God for healing the knee.

"The meniscus cannot heal as little blood flows to the area" so says the doc, but i proved her wrong. OKAY, so maybe my knee still acts up once in a while. I run half the speed i used to, lost a whole lot of jump height, agility, strength. I am unfit. I'll be the first of everyone to get arthritis when im older. BUT, considering the fact that i can do practically everything i could before the injury, I thank God.

I thank God for 33rd and 34th<3

Coming from a person who was desperately wanting a transfer out of the school , I think I've gone a longgggg way. Never in my wildest dreams did i think three months down the road, I would be in SA, let alone, REPRESENT SA. I guess it was not by chance he put 4 SCGS girls in my OG, then 2 others in my class, then 4 OG mates in council with me. (yes, I counted:)) Not forgetting, my p1-2 best friend, and my p3-4 best friend are with me in SA. hahah:) Though it was a big culture change in the beginning, he made me feel so at home from the beginning. Along the way i also began to accept and embrace the family-like warmth in SA. <3 For putting me in SA, i do not regret, and I thank God.

Winning PW fest with Ari, Natassia and fion, added that extra cherry on top of everything sweet:)

Merely the beginning, yet so unpredictable, nerve wreking, stressful and at times, mind blowing.

God, lead the way wont you?

Reign in me, reign in your power,

Over all my dreams,

in my darkest hour.

You are the Lord of all I am.

So wont you reign in me again.

나 어떡해

"Bitterness pushes me to Jesus, Forgiveness pulls me to him."

Its been so long.

I'm far from overcoming it all, alone.
Lost as to what to do.

Lord, you'll handle it, wont you?

Found this while cleaning up my room:) Shall type it into soft copy, since i'll prolly throw away the whole file of random p6 writings after this. hahah.

20/7/2006

I was a typical university student studying for a degree in arts.

But i hated my life. I found dreariness in my everyday life. My life annuity was just enough for my school fees and I hardly had any money to spend on myself, to go out with my friends and buy branded items.

I decided that this would not do and pledged to find a job. I found my niche in English and I had good memory too. I guess I could take up a job as a sales assistant or maybe a clerk. I finally landed myself the job of a secretary to a prima donna and often worked with the theatre impresario to discuss the details of her next performance.

As the secretary to a very famous prima donna, I often had to read aloud her fan mail to her. Though her fan's admiration was not reciprocated, her fan's still enjoyed her performance tremendously.

She enjoyed life to the fullest. Though she was busy, she and her retinues would regularly visit her sick relatives in the hospital.

The prima donna showed her eccentricity when playing her grand piano blindfolded during her performance at a night club. Everybody applauded. Of course, there was a group of people who hated her, who wanted her nothing but dead. As the prima donna and I were walking out of the nightclub, a drunkard made a lunge at the prima donna, with a knife! I remained unfazed as I quickly kicked him with my karate kick and sent him flying to the ground, landing widespread on the ground. The prima donna looked at me with a wide smile.

Now I am an old grandma. Last year, I received news that the prima donna had dies of a massive heart attack. Although full of gried, I will never forget the fun, exciting life working with the prima donna.

9++years ago on my first day of school, I was excited to put on my uniform, do my homework, take the school bus and make friends.
9++ years later, Im glad, to a large extent, i still feel the same way about it all. :)


My sec ones are getting into their sec one-twoish "emo phase" of life.
Its not cool to be emo you know?
:)

sleep

Amath today was good.
For once i could finish my paper and do a thorough check through:)

The afternoon is making me real sleepy cause its comfortably warm and my stomach is real contented after drinking some freshly squeezed chilled orange juice.
Then again, i shall not sleep.
Its nerve wrecking cause too often a time its during afternoon naps, that my body freezes like cold stone, leaving only my eyes open and my mind conscious.
I often watch the clock tick by the minute. My body doesnt want to move, screaming internally does no help cause my voice cant be heard.
In the end, much time is just wasted as i wait for body to "wake up"

It must have been really tired.
Its scary.Then again, i've grown quite used to the feeling. It only happens in the afternoons so thank God.

3 papers to go:)

:)


sigh,
Im a party pooper aren't I?

~quan shi wei le niiiiii!

I remember growing up watching the "Sheng siong supermarket " variety show.
I loved watching the little boys and girls sing chinese karaoke while prancing around the stage in florescent multi coloured clothing. It was exciting. to laugh at. heh.
Then there was the lucky draw section where the selected people got to open golden boxes or beat the golden fortune trees to earn prize money.

I don't watch it anymore.

But ANYWAY, today i just decided randomly turn the tv on and the show was airing! Live.

It was U-kiss(korean band) performing their song!

I was dumbfounded.
Not cause U-kiss was in singapore or i like the band or anything but cause they agreed to perform for
a supermarket show.

wiki updated the sheng siong page:
The supermarket chain has also launched a variety programme on Channel 8. Because a group called the 'U-Kiss' appeared on that show, 'Sheng Siong became the top trending topic in Twitter, winning World Cup at one point in time...

Come on, they deserve better than that coming all the way from korea! The wondergirls got to perform at marina bay sands while they degraded themselves performing on the same stage i used to watch mediocre karaoke sing-a-long sessions and desperate people hitting trees for money.

Maybe, times have changed and sheng siong is uprading its image of its decade old variety show. In that case, they should start from upgrading their adverts:

*Employees pat their hand on shoulder and points to viewers* ~sings "Sheng siong quan shi wei le niiiiiii!"

On a totally different note,

Thanks Zhiting for baking and showing me your cleansing routine(haha,) and talking bout stuff! Don't worry too much kay about, stuff:):)

Thanks Rain for the cupcake lipbalm:) its yummy cause its smells like vanilla and tastes sweet!

Pong i missed you cause we didnt meet everyday. We didnt meet for one week!(amazing)

Yuhan, if you ever read this (I doubt so)thanks too for inviting me to your church. It was a cool insight, learning whats wrong with the whole charismatic movement thing.:)

Happy early birthday Anne!! :)

Sec1's you guys cheer me up with your lovable innocence. I had fun just watching you guys play at sentosa really. I like our new tans.

project tricycle!

Today, i transformed my toddler tricycle from this

to THIS!

Yay:) Im really happy with the outcome. Its my first time spray painting so i spent like four hours on it and was real tired and coughing from the smelly paint fumes. The wheels were soooo hard to paint!

But anyway, i transformed this 20 something year old tricycle and made it look good as new! (Its my 26- year old cousin's toddler tricycle)

Before:

had to sandpaper all the rust off!


After:

Ben helped me with the finishing touches of painting on metallic silver screws

And tadahh! Beautiful:)

Daddy said i should sell it. Anyone want to buy? :)

But nah, its gonna be an art piece in the new house.

I might follow up and paint so ambellishments on it at the end of the year. so exciting!

Next up, designing the room!

Craving for yam.

People say im trying to lose weight
cause I object to their views of eating at fast food restaurants
and i hardly finish my food even though i asked the food aunty to halve my portion of rice.
I can almost image the words floating in their heads:
"Trying to get all the oil off her hash brown again. tsk"
"Oh shes being so picky. I mean one burger/fries wonldn't hurt right?"

Truth is, yes i am health conscious but I avoid fast food simply cause I don't like them.
Its too oily, too salty and just not my kind of food.
I have a true blue Asian chinese diet.
I love my noodles, Dim sum!!, kuehs, stir fried vegetables and clear soups. and would gladly choose them over western fast food:)

Another thing.
If you ask any desert person, they will say they save like 3/4 of their stomachs for desert after meals. Im one of them:) I look at the desert menus at restaurants before main course. And i eat dinner sometimes for the sake of beautiful desert. yum

So for the last time
I'm not on a diet.
You can say desert makes up for all the fats and calories im not consuming at my meals.


Phew.
That feels better:)
I could go on but never mind.

someone bring me to eat yam paste now!

webcam. heh.

I need a haircut again:)

I sat through more than 5 exams this week with a curtain over my face.





You know what, growing back your hair long is harder than it looks cause you have to deal with all the mess during the growing process that most of the time you'll just give up and decide to chop it all off again. (at least for me, thats the case:))

Anyway, thank God the week is over!
It was really really exhaustive.

1. Chinese Os

2. A math mock paper

3. SS mock paper

4. English paper 1

5. Emath mock paper

Rahh.
Pong and I rewarded ourselves with Taiyaki (japanese red bean fish-shaped cake thing) at ion and shopped at miumiu, D&G, Gucci, Prada, Zzegna.

Yes yes, just window shopping.

I think from now onwards we can both agree that the things we like to buy and see the most is food. Its a "multi-sensory" experience shopping for food really. Go to the foodhall and supermarket with us one day!

-

One more week of school! jiayou!

-lizzie.

p.s. Hey every girl has her camwhore moment! And thanks pig brother jj (+marcus and moses) for web-camming!

Sunset.
I've never seen it here, in singapore. ever.
Wishing I was there, soaking in the vibrancy, colours
and smelling sweet sweet freedom.
cause over here..
The four cold walls,
the mechanical ticking of the clock,
the monotonous whirling of the fan,
the staleness of everything in the room.
That familiar burnt, cold smell,
The smell of fatigue and boredorm that clings on so tightly.
Its suffocating, drowning.

Even when its so so mundane,
Even when left brain is overworked and right brain screams boredorm
give me the strength to pull through.



~Did you climb a mountain that high too?
:)

"15 ...This is what the LORD says to you: 'Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God's. 16 Tomorrow march down against them. They will be climbing up by the Pass of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the gorge in the Desert of Jeruel. 17 You will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions; stand firm and see the deliverance the LORD will give you, O Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out to face them tomorrow, and the LORD will be with you.' "

2 Chronicles 20:15-17


The time was worth while after all.


I shouldn't be giving the load to you with the silly excuse of mugging for O's every single time.
And you shouldn't be sorry for doing so much for them without telling me.
I appreciate it, so don't be apologetic. Really.
Yup, teamwork:)
Its looking good.

Fiona misses you too :(
