Watch It All Tumble Down.

This cold front might just silence a few hearts. Or just my own.

Goodbye to You. Or Rather, See You Soon.

I hate writing these farewell posts, they make me so damn depressed.

Well, this second one I dare say is worse. We bade farewell to Rae on the 24th of January, as she departed for Melbourne, Australia to study Year 10 there. Unfortunately, most of us were not able to see her off at the airport, as it was WAY too early.
So, Raelene Tan Yi Mei. What can I say about her? Haha truth be told I only got to know her AFTER I found out that she was going to Aus. SADNESS. Anyway, I sat next to her in Science last year, and to my amazement she could actually tahan my annoying-ness! Yes, you need a natural gift to tahan me!

So yeah, that's kinda where I got to know her at first. Then of course she was our class monitor, so YES we gave her a hard time but I'm sure she appreciates it as it has PROBABLY made her more tough. Right? =P

Hehe so anyway, the time I got to know her best was when she, Juin, Qwei, Liksheng and I were working on the "Design A Dream Home" inter-class contest. MANY a happy time we had while fighting with Google Sketchup and our CRAZY high-ness when we found out we could RIP OFF other people's work on the Internet! HAHHAHHAHAH!!
And yes of course the BANG BANG game! In which I often killed Rae first =P Don't know why. EHHEHEH! And many other crazy moments including our crazy Signs games and all! That's where I VERY OFTEN heard her weirded squealing sound! HAHAHHAH!! UTTER FUNNINESS!
All that aside, I found Rae to be a great friend, someone you can always count on, someone always willing to listen, someone who would offer sound advice, albeit VERY sacarstic =P but sound advice still. Not having her in school just feels so different. Something missing you know?
So I'd like to take this opportunity to ONCE AGAIN, wish Rae all the best, good luck adapting, and I sincerely hope you enjoy life in Melbourne! And gee, the Australian Open is going on there! Go watch lah Rae!! Eat more but don't grow fat, study hard but don't become a nerd! Save money but don't be a scrooge, be generous but don't be Oprah! =D Gee, I should be some inspirational writer!

Here's to Rae, one of my best friends. Cheers!


Rae and I care for our skin!


The only pic that has Rae and I together. I think. =P

Cheese!

So Long, Farewell.

Tonight we bid farewell to one Audrey Seng who is migrating to Australia. WHY?!!

We'll all miss her sorely and thus I intend to dedicate this post to Audrey.

I only met Audrey in Form 2, I think. Anyway, I only got to know her in Form Three when she, DingSheng, Rebecca and I sat together for KH. And we spouted lots of useless crap but it was fun. And then the two of us got chosen to send our KH folios to the Ministry for something. *COUGHBECAUSEWEWERETHEBESTCOUGH*

Haha, THUS, we spent QUITE A FEW HOURS in the KH room along with some other people who were doing the same thing. And yeah, that's probably where I got to know her most. And of course there were the MANY times we played senseless and hyper games in class along with the rest of the jakuns of 3L!

AND THEN, there was the time when only the two of us (or rather the only two I knew of) wanted to join the school tennis team! And so yes we started talking about her beloved Federer and other tennis freak stuff! I still can't believe she went to watch him. I WANTED TO GO! And everytime Federer loses (which is becoming pretty frequent, Audrey!), she'd complain to me and trash talk his opponent. HEHEH! Sore loser! =P

And of course the surprise party for her at Peggy's house! (Not very successful!) Haha, yes we sang karaoke and went SUPER crazy! She can actually sing Mariah Carey's songs! What the hell! And getting lost in Peggy's backyard! Haha it's a freaking JUNGLE! Haha yes, we had lots of fun that day!

So yeah, tonight she's getting on an aeroplane, and I don't know when she'll be back again. Or maybe in 11 months =P Anyway, all the best to you, Audrey! Hope you fit right in there and enjoy your new life free of the troubles ever so rife here in Malaysia. You know what I'm talking about, Audrey! And remember to keep in contact with us!

You'll be sorely missed.

In life, there's never really a "goodbye", only a "see you soon".

Sweet Sixteen!

The more un-MTV stlyed ones. Just the way I like it.

I woke up at like 8!! Which in my holiday universe is pretty freaking early. Haha only had like 5 hours of sleep. Something I would regret later! Ajourned to Juin's house, and talked and crapped for awhile with Ivan and Juin, then left for SUNWAY!

Well, FLASHBACK! This trip was organized to celebrate Juin's and my sixteenth birthday! Though it didn't coincide with mine, it was just four days off. And since they're so close together and we're so kiamsiap, we had a joint sweet sixteen!

Anyway, we arrived there late, but we were the first to arrive! So we waited for Quinnie to come and arrange the hotel reservations and stuff. Then Chris, Stan, Ivan, Weijun, Juin, Quinnie and I made our way to Sunway Lagoon! As we were lining up, Rae and Joey appeared! Just in time!

After much negotiating and lining up in the wrong line, we finally got into the famed theme park, our usual haunt for our annual theme park outings. I had an absolute blast in there! I think we spent like 6 hours in there!

Then upon leaving the park, I heard someone calling me. Turns out it was Xyang and Sheng! They were outside the gates!

Sheng: WE'VE BEEN HERE FOR THREE AND A HALF HOURS YOU KNOW?!!
Zyang: Why didn't you just buy a ticket and come in?
Xyang: We scared you bought for us adi mahh!

Hehe, maybe we should have called them and told them that earlier! Oh well, we then went to Pyramid Tower where we would be holding up for the night. After Quinnie's dad settled everything (Thanks!), we bid farewell to Stan and Chris, who both were SUPPOSED to leave two hours before.

Went into the hotel room, bathed (which took REALLY LONG to get everyone to start doing), decided on the venue for our dinner that night (which took even longer), and went! Then we made our way to Sunway Pyramid, which is linked to the hotel. It took us FOREVER to find the freaking restaurant, but by all means it was worth it.

Sushi Zanmai was really a surprise! The food was good and it was pretty affordable! Much to my relief, since I was VERY hungry up to the point where I became a little cranky. Sorry guys =P 11 people and the bill amounted to RM160+. Imagine that, in a pretty upscale Japanese restaurant!
While we were eating, JEN CAME! And we played LOADS of stupid but fun games and riddles! I tell you I don't think I'd ever been sooo frustrated! Haha but it was DAMN fun! Especially when I frustrated THE REST! Hehehhehe!

After the wholesome dinner, we went to the cinema to buy tickets for "Bedtime Stories". The one with the hamsap guy Adam Sandler. With 40 minutes to kill, we spent 10 minutes mulling over whether or not we should go back to the hotel, another 10 minutes to get moving, but a second to decide, "Neh, lazy walk lah."

Haha then the clock struck 12 and the girls screamed birthday wishes and the guys.. just wished. =P To one of my dearest friends, Low Xiao Juin! Definitely one of the most supportive and helpful yet helpless and hopeless people I've ever met, she's one of me best friends and also my braintrust! Also one of the nicest people you'll ever know. So Happy 16th Birthday, Juin! You're now the oldest person among the 20! But I'll be there soon. Hehe..

Anyway, the movie was pretty okay, and after that we walked the long walk back to the hotel where Juin and I became absolutely DEAD. Two of us just collapsed on the bed (different beds!), and I closed my eyes waiting for sleep to take over. But the lights went off and the firey light of the wavering flames of the birthday candles were all that lit the room.

The rest broke out into song while Juin and I enjoyed it as I kinda blushed. Though no one could see in the dim lighting. Wished our wishes and blew the flames out. It's safe to say that I was pretty damn happy! Ate the cake, which was Secret Recipe's Chocolate Mud Cake. It was SOOOOOOO sweet. Haha, I couldn't have a second piece and if you know me that's kinda unusual.

Anyway, after that, we talked and crapped and played our hyper and stupid games! Since we were WAY too tired, we tweaked the Dare Game to become the Truth Game. Yes, boring you would think, but I feel more enlightened now. Then we "wrestled" which resulted in me falling hard on my ass. =P Thanks Sheng!

Oh yeah, and we watched "Mean Girls" from Quinnie's iPod. Your favourite movie! Anyway, we soon got hungry and we went to 7-11 at like 5 something in the morning, ate, then went BACK there again to buy poker cards at like 7 something! After a few rounds of Bluff/Cheat/Lie/Bullshit I just couldn't take it anymore. I'd been awake for exactly 24 hours and I collapsed into a deep sleep.

When I woke, the rest except Weijun, Juin, Rae and I had gone to ice-skate and came back. So we checked out, waited for some to go home, then Weijun, Juin and I explored Sunway Pyramid, in search of Weijun's slippers which he swore to buy but didn't =P

Then Juin's dad picked us up (Thanks!), and we went to her place yet again. We were damn tired but we still managed to be hyper for a little while, talking and crapping and cam-whoring like the crazy people we are. After a while I went home with Weijun, dropped him off and went home. And that concluded my sweet sixteen. And it rocked. Like crazy.

The pics are with the birthday girl so I don't have any to post. Sorry! Maybe next time!

Wished you were there, then things would have been utterly perfect.

Though it already came pretty damn close. =D

Thoughts Before The Afterthought.

So it's a pre-thought! HEHE APPROXIMATELY 12 HOURS BEFOREHAND.

Haha THEY WERE HAPPY THOUGHTS!!

The one word.

YES!

I got SEVEN A'S FOR PMR!!! MUAHAHAHAA!!! My dream for the past three years!

Relief blossomed, but more pride and LOOK-AT-ME-I-PAWNED-PMR-ness! Though honestly I was kinda expecting it. But why jinx it eh? =P And for those who know me personally, you would probably know my really retarded studying habits. And you'd probably go like "What the hell?" if I missed my BM. Or anything for that matter =P

Yes, deep down I'm a nerd who DOES give shit about my exams. Actually I give A LOT of shit. Add the my natural kiasu-ness and you've got this super nerd who won't stop studying. I even read a blog by some Munsyi Dewan to get BM tips. AND GUESS WHAT! IT WORKED! Haha >=P

Anyway, to all those who did well, congratulations extended! And to those who did ok, there's always SPM to own >=)

Well I gots to go! Bye readers!

By the way, you know you did. Before. Don't pretend that you didn't. >=)
