Vectors - Florence KILLEr.

Never have I such an urge to give up fighting altogether. I've practically exhausted every martial arts discipline in my quest to defeat the giant that is vectors...and I turned out to be no David. :(

Vectors test was, in short, abominable. Disastrous. A tragedy.

I going to have to scrounge around for some ice-cream to cheer myself up.

My HAT tastes of lux shampoo.

JOY!! My hat tastes weird la! If I get food poisoning tomorrow, it'll be all YOUR fault. Hahahahahaha...

See, we (as in Joy, me and the whole class) were condemned to slog on an essay for Mr Tong while he was away ill. :'(

I was looking at Joy's points...for the essay entitled "What does it take for us to succeed in today's world." And her points were pretty good, as I contributed a few, to say so myself. HAHAHAHAHAH. Not true la. Joy's England is pretty powderful in her own right. :)

Anyway. As with all his set assignments, all of us ended up having to stay back after school to finish it up. (NO one wants to risk the wrath of the DM when he wants an assignment to be handed in.) SO....I was getting all grumpy about the length of my essay...the ending...the points...the irritating giant red ants crawling around on the table...I even ended up standing against the wall to write my bliddy essay, like some kindergarden kid who's being punished. Bleagh.

In a fit of creative frustration, I opened that intolerable mouth of mine and spouted, "IF YOU DON'T GET HIGHER THAN ME THIS TIME, I'LL EAT MY HAT."

I ended up eating it afterall...*sighs*

Joy's superb at compre though. If we combine my essay marks and her compre marks, HEH HEH. Watch out TJ!!! We'll thrash everyone no problem. Hahahahahaha...okay. Maybe not everyone. Maybe some people. Maybe a quarter of the school?? No wait. Half. Three-quarters. Urgh.

CNY Eve madness...

(: Chinese New Year always creates a barrage of havoc in my house. What with last minute baking on the part of my mom, last minute cleaning on my dad's part, them hollering for help, CNY eve is never a good day to be in the way...so after the below mentioned help I provided...I was decidedly lazy and since I had nothing to do...HAHAHAHAH! Went to disturb my neighbours. =/

Eh. Not my fault okay. I was joking when I asked Chun Han to go downstairs playground play 'lom jiam pas'. Hahahaha...not my fault that he got bored with his TV programme and decided to go down okay! Heh. So...we passed this slack day with magic card tricks which resulted in me having a sleepless night (he don't want to tell me how he did it!!!! GAH!!) plus me owing him lunch. :'( SAD. Hahahahahha...went to the other playground to get dizzy...then I remembered my mother's instruction to let Joel (my other neighbour. Next door one.) eat the butter cake which I'd brought down. So we called him...and showed him the card tricks. He's smarter than me la. Didn't fall to the trick of owing Chun dinner. HAI. @#$%^&*!

Of reunions and changes for the better.

YAY!!!! Reunion dinner part 2 tonight!! Although for the first time in ancient history, it won't be at my grandmother's place cos she can't cook anymore. :'( *sobs* I love her food!!!! This has got to be the worst thing ever. *sigh*

And yes. I realise that I've been changing blogskins like I pass out water, but ya...I've been trying to find a nice one?? But that's sorta impossible for a fussy and picky person like me. LOL!!

Anyhow...I spent the whole morning developing more muscles. Hahahahaha... (: The moment I woke up, I spent a few minutes sweeping up my room...after breakfast came polishing the piano to a perfect sheen, and pounding pandan leaves for the mother to bake her famous pandan cake. (: I am sooooo helpful around the house.

Ya RIGHT.

-.-" I'm more of a hindrance that a help la...of course. Being a normal teenager-ish pest around the house. (: *gleeful sniggers* Happy Chinese New Year to all!!!

And Xiuru sprayed my wallet also. LOL! It gives me an excuse to buy a new one la...My present one like so dirty already...I saw this very nice wallet at the Suntec and Marina Square Wallet Shop...quite okay price...but I couldn't decide on white, or hot red. Plus. I no money already la!!! Buy the thermochem notes like so so so expensive can. Suck all my money away. So cannot buy the wallet. YET. I shall KIV. (:

What's in a erroneous comedy of history??

Okay. Here's my post okay Cornelius!!!! He, being the ever crazy junior, must nag at me every 5 secs to update more often. (: I was just about to update la!!! But he beat me to it. *sighs*

Anyway. Today....GP was an absolute HOOT. Mr Tong gave us this article about the errors that American students make in history essays la...some of them you need to know the history behind it before you can understand, but I'll just put the easiest to understand here...(SEE?! I try to dumb it down for you lesser mortals okay!! Such consideration has never been seen since the times of Qin Shi Huang. Hahaha.)

So...here goes. Prepare your lungs for a vigorous bout of activity.

1. "Moses led them to the Red Sea, where they made unleavened bread, which is bread made without any ingredients. Afterwards, Moses went up on Mount Cyanide to get the Ten Commandments."
(OMG. What was the person thinking?!?!?!?! Bread without any ingredients indeed.)

2. "A myth is a female moth."
(HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!)

3. "Actually, Homer was not written by Homer, but by another man of that name."
(Who is HOMER la, dinkus.)

4. "In the Olympic Games, Greeks ran races, jumped, hurled the biscuits and threw the java. The reward to the victor was a coral wreath."
(OMG. *gasps with fits of laughter* The discus and javelin had such humble beginnings!!! I never knew!!! Hahahahahah...imagine. The prestigious gold medal as a coral wreath. WHOOOO!)

5. "When they fought with the Persians, the Greeks were outnumbered because the Persians had more men."
(Hey. Talk about being lor soh. Repeating yourself to make up the word count. Tsk tsk.)

6. "Another tale tells of William Tell, who shot an arrow through an apple while standing on his son's head."
(HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! OMG. The things people will say. He stand on his son's head for what?!)

7. "He [Abraham Lincoln] said, "In onion there is strength.""
(HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH.....)

8. "Another important invention was the circulation of blood."
(I've run out of adjectives to describe my laughter. Whatever la. It's hilarious. )

9. The Marseillaise was the theme song of the French Revolution, and it catapulted into Napoleon."
(LOL. So powerful!!)

And the BEST one.

10. "The sun never set on the British Empire because the British Empire is in the East and the sun sets in the West."
(-.-" OMG. What kind of noob is the miscreant author of this sentence?!"

today is a BAD, BAD day.

*sighs*

*sighs again*

*and again*

*sigh*

Today is a bad, bad day la...I went to have my hair cut.

Now it's short. As in, no hair. Like bliddy no hair.

Like even shorter than clovis' hair.

Like if it's shorter, it'll become Wen Yang's hair.

Like everybody will laugh kinda short.

I have no hair!! NO HAIR!!!!

*sighs*

Anyway...it's too tragic already la. Must change topic, or I'll start wishing for something drastic. Something along the lines of becoming Harry Potter, who could grow back his hair in a night. Something like putting in hair extensions or whatever.

*sighs*

As I was saying. I have to change topic. And since I was already in such a bad mood...I continued along that grouchy train of thought...in other words, I did another small bit of self-reflection (I seem to be doing alot of this leh...not very healthy right.) But whatever la. I realised that I'm a bad, bad person. (Really.) I'm hard on people really. I have a sarcastic tongue. Maybe too sharp sometimes. I think bad things about people. I'm impatient. And the list goes on....

*sighs*

I'm emo-ing. I'm a bad, bad person.

saints hallelujah Vll

WHA WHA WHA. Hahahahahaha...the concert did not waste my money after all. Saints alumni band must be the best alumni band in Singapore la. And I thought TJ alumni's Macchu Picchu was power enough alr. THEN came along SAB with their mind blowing version of Fate of the Gods. And Global Variations. AND Amazing Grace. All the songs they played were fantastic la. Abit of wrong notes and tuning here and there, but WOW. I still think Saints Hallelujah Vl was more musical though. Their rendition of Jesu, Joy of a Man's Desiring was WHOA.

But what the hell la. 100 strong band. Whose alumni is so loyal for so many thousands of years you tell me. Plus this year's repertoire is rather interesting. So many nice nice pieces...So many pro pro players...Hai. *swoons* Hahahahaha...

SAS' Merry Widow cannot compare to TWE's la...the picc player. -.-" Although louder than Pinyi, he's even more out of tune that she is. (Pinyi are you reading this??) This guy right. Hold one note, can go flat until the next note la!!! During the dreaded solo of yours somemore. BLEAGH. Pinyi's my powerful picc player okay!! Don't see just because she girl then show off your volume hor! Quality beats quantity anytime. (: Plus our flute section balance is so much nicer. Heh heh. Thanks to the GREAT SL who brought out all the nice nice chords. HAHAHAHAH! Bleagh. =/

;and the DODO has the final say.

what's done's done already

Today band!!! Hai. Sectionals was rubbish as usual. But I played like 10 000 times better during band. Dunno why also. Must be this irritating disease of mine that impedes me from ever sounding nice during sectionals. I kept 'zao sia'-ing...so bliddy frustrating. Then during band can sightread 2 long solos no problem (except for some fiendishly tricky to read notes la of course). Tell me. WHAT THE HELL IS THE PROBLEM!!!!!

Anyway. To move on to happier stuff...Lin Sheng ah, wha!!!! What a JOKER. Kejian and I were in fits of smothered giggles nearly throughout the whole of today. What with birds from kampungs and singing tuners, band with him is never devoid of tickles.

We were playing Sunrise la...(the SYF set piece) and then there was this part where the flutes had to sound like birds. -.-" (Don't ask me why bird.) THEN. Lin Sheng was telling Wai Ngai that the birds start singing one after another, like a multiplier effect (we learnt in econs haha). Then he entertained us with stories of him catching birds and 'grasschoppers' in his kampung...LOL!! He was so proud of his skill at catching different kinds of 'grasschoppers' CAN.

And then came Hymn to the Sun...by this crazy old Jap guy...(SIAO! Put so many running running tao gays for us to play) Where Lin Sheng started listening to his tuner...asking us to listen to the KIK KOK KIK KOK!!! Then his tuner something wrong, and he started complaining about it going KOK KIK KOK KIK instead of the preferred KIK KOK KIK KOK.

OMG. He KIK KOK, KOK KIK left right and center like nobody's business, Kejian and I like laughing and laughing and laughing...then the people around us were laughing and laughing. Trying to smother our laughter caused some pain I'm afraid. No. 1, we already played our lungs out, and our ribs were hurting...trying to keep our laughter in was um...Side-splittting, to say the least. (: laugh until cannot play anymore la.

On a more somber note...Matthew can't make it to TJ!!!! *sobs* Such a nice guy, so pro, but cannot get in. ARGH!!!!! Why like that. Thank goodness Kejian would most probably make it in...the principal's condition when approving his appeal was "you must get 16 and below for your Os". And that boy, got exactly 16. -.-" And Shing Wei's back!!! The pro kia got like 9 la. I missed his gigantumous height towering over me. LOL.

more birds, more luck!

Good luck to all those J1s out there who're going to get their results tomorrow!!! I can see all of them biting those nails as of this very moment. *gnaws vigorously* Nervousness fills the air!!!! ~lalalala

Hahahahaha...I'm one to talk ain't I. Not me taking the results, still can so high. Heh. Thinking of that year....(whahahahaha!!! Translate that literally into Chinese!) I was so stressed up over which school I should go to. -.-" But whatever la. O levels was a big screwup. Can you believe I did better for my prelims!!!! *sighs* By one miserable point la. That's 5 freak marks. *sighs 3 times* As i recall, Brandon had to kill himself because I didn't get the mark that he predicted. LOL!! See la! Next time must think before you say anything! Don't go around saying things like: "You get above 10 I kill myself ah!" Heh heh. See la. Say wrong thing, that's what happens. :)

Anyway. I forgot what I really wanted to say in today's post. Darn.

senility

I forgot to mention...there was this girl who said hi to me when I was crossing the road from Parco to Bugis Street...from MJC. I couldn't recognise her even though I managed to get a good second look at her...do I know her?! LOL. So sorry to the person, whoever you are. She just glanced, saw me, and happily went, "FLORENCE!!! HIII!!!!"

SHIT. I said hi, but what the heck. I'm still clueless as to her elusive identity. Must be a primary school friend then. I hope. Cos then it gives me an excuse to forget, even though her memory seems to serve her execellently. =/ Plus. I can't stand forgetting stuff!!!! I'll brood on this for the next week, mark my words. *sigh* Who is it la....sians...if you ever come across this blog, the person who said hi, HI! and please tell me your name to jog my memory kk! Hai.

the big cleanup!!! and it's not even for MY house.

Cleanup of Old Folk's Home today!!! Super drama I tell you. Plus, super tiring. I've developed muscles, and let me tell you. It's uneven la. My right bicep is bigger than the left. That's not to say that my muscles are HUGE. On the contrary, it's probably as big as a grape. (:

But whatever. I spent the entire morning scrubbing the floor and cleaning the windows. And there were hell LOT of windows okay. (Okay la, not so many, but the art of exaggerationmust be utilised to its fullest.) I was bossed around by the resident cleaners, (whose accent is TERRIBLE. We huh-ed so many thousand times, it's part of every sentence I now utter.) bossed around by the patron?... bossed around by the old folks themselves. There was this old man who kept pointing us in the general direction of areas we hadn't cleaned. He was clearly enjoying it la...lol. But he was quite nice about it though. Not in a bossy kinda way.

So. Finally after hours of rigorous cleaning, we left, only to be accosted by this taxi driver, who needed help kickstarting his vehicle. A group of girls just chiong-ed there and pushed like nobody's business. AMAZONS!!! Hahahahahaha...I was so intriuged, I forgot to take pictures until the drama was over and gone. -.-"

Third exciting thing that happened to me was...when I was on the way to meet Cheryl, Wan Hsin and Christianne to go SHOPPING!!! (: There was this secondary school guy doing flag day...and I was standing BEHIND him at the traffic light. For some reason, he decided to turn around and say rudely, "WANT TO DONATE OR NOT?!" WHA LAU EH! Want people to donate still so rude. I looked at him and said, "NEVER SAY PLEASE!" in a voice that matched his tone perfectly. (: (shiok man) Lucky we both have a sense of humour okay. We laugh laugh laugh...and I nearly made a new friend. His friend also nearly make friends with me cos he took advantage of the situation. I ended up donating to BOTH of them CAN. GAH.

;and the DODO has the final say.

Why oh why, did the sky fall??

Great. We've all gotten our DE test scripts back. And guess what?? Dear Teacher of ours (which I just happen to don't like just a tiny itsy bitsy bit), failed practically all of us. It was an easy paper. I expected to pass. GAH!!!!!!! *strangles air* Know why she failed us?? She dredged out, "You all never explain what..." Come on la!!!!!! Nobody EVER explains!!! Some things is common sense!!! I was suitable frustrated and utterly grouchy by then. At least make us relatively happy for the first test ma. ARGH!!!!!!! I even needed my favourite pau to cheer me up. Lucky the auntie at Temasnack had my pau. :'(
