The only easy day... was yesterday says:
*my friend thinks i need to see a psychiatrist
_Trashy Bessy    Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps     says:
*As long as you don't die I think you're fine
*Which is funny because
*The moment you die you can't, anyway
The only easy day... was yesterday says:
*lol
*you're a terrible psychiatrist you know that
_Trashy Bessy    Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps     says:
*Lol what I don't like psychiatrists anyway
*I'm not anti them
**But I'm not for them
The only easy day... was yesterday says:
*your patients come to you and you go " as long as you're alive you're fine "
*GREAT JOB DOCTOR
*=P

I would probably go bankrupt by doing that anyway. But it'd be funny. I would be the funniest psychiatrist that there ever was.

Wish me luck for AAR and start of chalet stays tomorrow. I'll pack tomorrow though. I can't wait for the movie marathon, just so I could watch New Moon again (and, in the process, compare how horrid the first movie was).

I don't know if anyone has been doing this, but let me just tell you that trying to dissect my feelings through the songs I post on my blog isn't going to work, because the lyrics do not linearly relate/run parallel to the current stream of things happening to me. I post songs only and only because I have fallen in love with them. Kthnxbai lub j00 guize.


At last, my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song
Oh, yeah, at last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clovers
The night I looked at you
I found a dream that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to rest my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known
Oh, yeah when you smile, you smile
Oh, and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine
At last

Etta James was an icon and one of the most soulful singers ever, but I personally feel that as long as you can do the song justice, why not? Beyonce did a rendition of this for the Obamas' Inaugural Dance and it was amazing.

I love music. <3





I am not INTJ, it turns out. I retook the test a few more times and ended up with being INTP once again. I am pretty sure I'll be stuck there in the INTP world once and for all.

I might end up skipping Council chalet after all. 30 November will be spent at PA Holiday Flats with the See² dudes and I doubt I'll shift my ass to Costa Sands Pasir Ris just to stay for a few hours and then head off to Shaw Orchard for my movie marathon. Kind of like a waste of time, don't you think?

The best part of all these, though, is that I haven't told anyone yet about my consecutive chalets. Except Serene.

You Are a Bishop

You are limited in what kind of moves you make, but that only encourages you to be wilier. If you sit back and think carefully, you can be just as deadly as any of the other players on the board. It's all about using your head. While it does get annoying to be underestimated all the type, you can use that to your advantage. You can attack and retreat quickly, without anyone hardly noticing. As far as skills go, that's an excellent one to have!

Blogthings is getting trashier.

Speaking of which, that day I went with Mr C to Hackerspace's opening after shopping with Ben for his own prom outfit, and I met this guy. Okay not exactly, technically I met a lot of people but this guy in particular left an impression on me. All of us were, at that moment, were comparing Western culture to local taste.

This guy then pointed out the sign somewhere near Orchard Road, which says, "A Glitzy Christmas By The Bay." (I actually saw it while on the way home later on.)

He explained that that is probably a very good example of how different places in the world perceive different words, as, in North America, "glitzy" means something glittery but overdone and extremely trashy. But it apparently holds no such meaning here in Singlishland.

I think it's true though. When I describe something as "glitzy", I doubt you'd have any negative impression at all.

Also, I met this Peter Facinelli lookalike and he's mad cool. He studied psychology, philosophy and sociology in the University of Texas. The best surprise is that he actually likes the Twilight series - pretty outstanding for a guy. And yet no one had ever told him that he looks like Papa Cullen.

On a side note, I'd like to dye my hair copper red.

Still.

I would like my Lego Polaroid as well. After all, the film's making a comeback next year so why not get a camera made of my favourite construction toy? Except, I don't know where to get it. :'(

Hola, turns out my disappearance from the Internet didn't spark any search warrant whatsoever. But then again, I did not exactly entirely fade out of existence because I was updating Plurk through Mikaela and, occasionally, a computer. Lol who cares if I die.

Youth Infocomm Day/NICA Ceremony
It was slack, and then real adrenaline as we performed Binary For Breakfast, and then more slack. I didn't even go around the booths looking at the various schools' entries with real seriousness. Bradford was constantly offering up himself for pictures so I played along most of the time and, truthfully, we fooled around a lot. So much for being ambassador to IDA. I received three Wild Wild Wet passes though so I'm elated as hell and I'm anticipating December 7, where I'll be going with Clara and Shuning.

Later we had dinner at Superdog and we were discussing a lot of things, including how we should invent a verb form of the word "ambassador". And Lady Gaga. I wish I could say we were all intensely mature but we were conjuring up a lot of connotations with her hermaphrodite status. Oh let's not go there.



Bradford and I going all I AM A SECRET AGENT YOU [CENSORED].

Daniel Ong was the emcee for the day. I honestly wonder how much he gets paid to run such an event.

Mingjun and Lisa, the two new Ambassadors from NH. They're taking over the mantle from LK and I, muahaha.

Ambassadors 09 - 10 performing.

Us at dinner at Superdog at White Sands Shopping Mall.

Here's a clip of the performance:

The camera couldn't capture the awesome animation that was playing at both ends of the stage so just make do with our clapping.

NH Council Camp 2009
Rightfully, it's the second council camp of the year so tagging on the '2009' doesn't make it qualify for the Camp Of The Year Award but I guess everyone's assuming the last camp was last year anyway. First day = slightly better than boring, second day = worst day of my life, second night = awesome, third day = fun ttm. Is it like a policy to always make the second day of camps a miserable thing? Especially because it is the only day of a 3D2N camp where we spend all 24 hours within the compound.

Doesn't matter. I still hate camps in general. They make me tanned, hungry and sleepless. Not that I mind being a zombie but I mind being zombie-like. There happens to be a vast difference. In a certain sly way, I'm glad I'm privy to being camp-less in 2010 although my teeth are chattering at the thought of the oncoming O's.


Apple pie, apple pie, shepherd's pie, shepherd's pie
Apple pie, apple pie, coconut pie!
Pie are square, pie are square, pie are cube, pie are cube,
Group pi, group pi, three point one four one five nine!

The entire camp, minus a few people who went off to their respective CCAs/appointments.

A better photo. Although I look the same in both but I'M NOT THE MAIN SUBJECT KTHNXBAI.

Lunch at Sumo House after that. The bad thing about sitting in the corner (my favourite spot) is that only three-quarter of your face loads.

New Moon Festa
The book discussion was pretty cute, it went from book to movie to book to movie to book. It was more of like a discussion of the Saga. Then, our opening for New Moon Festa was of epic proportions. Basically the four of us (Maria was missing because she was in Munich or somewhere) stood on stage in this black cloak each and then we went like, "Welcome, friends, welcome to New Moon Festa" which is totally a line ripped from Aro.

I had fun emceeing the event though. The participants were spontaneous and extremely enthusiastic. Most of the pictures aren't with me now because I handed the SD card over to Maria, but the pictures will turn out cool because Amirah used Jean to capture the event. And now she's in love with my Nikon D90. It's magical how everyone who uses it automatically falls under a spell.


That's me in plaid, talking to a participant. The theme for the night was 'Masquerade', so for the book discussion I was wearing a coat that looked like Edward's pea coat and later I swapped it out for the plaid shirt. The best part is that I picked both outfits by chance.

A photo with the standee, despite Nasyita going, "No we don't have time for that!"

NH Grad Night 2009
The best event that I've ran so far in my life. I have learnt that some guys think wearing mini tiaras are gay while some guys happily wear them, the lights for Meritus Mandarin's ballroom can be controlled on the actual floor, there is a backstage to a collapsible stage (and that you can scare Liang Choon by making a "WHOO", thanks Lito), emcees can write scripts in an hour, Pearlynn's hair can look like an octopus, the so-called Day Room is really just a 3-to-8 room, buying dinner at Takashimaya's basement with $6 is a really bad idea, males can hog the bathroom for 10 minutes even though the mirror stretches for miles and Clara doesn't mean it when she says, "I'M GOING DOWN SOON".

I've also learnt that you can start events an hour late and still be on schedule, the AV person at Meritus Mandarin (HI MARTIN) is a real professional-professional, some people offer themselves up for Prom K&Q nominees but cancel their actual performance, Liang Choon can perform three pieces in a row without screwing up, but that people really just eat if you play the piano, walking around in two-inch heels while trying to pick out Prom K&Q nominees hurt for hours after that, no one ever actually runs around except Clara and I (I don't mean it negatively), sec 4s are all "shy", I can scribble "Alber Elbaz stop haunting me" onto a piece of voting slip and still not get it back and Pearlynn & Grace are good at grilling Prom K&Q nominees.

I have picked up the knowledge that votes can sometimes not be counted when it is obvious who the winners are, scarves in place of sashes was a brilliant plan, Dr Foo can't put on a huge tiara properly sometimes, just because the AV guy upstairs says there is no slow song doesn't mean there really isn't any (I LOVE MY PLAYLIST!!!!), opening up a dance floor because people requested for it doesn't mean they will use it and it takes 10 minutes to chase a crowd of sec 4s out of the ballroom.

Yes, as you can infer, I have absorbed a lot from this experience. Kai Wen complimented us though, saying, we did a much better job for this year's Grad Night than last year's. Not saying last year's GNC sucked, but WE'RE BETTAAAAAAHH. I'm so high now.

Posting only group photos now because I'm saving all the other unfixed images to Tugtug and then adjusting them before reuploading them to Photobucket. That'll take a while. So in the meantime, here's our group photos! <3




See² Conference 2009
Awesome three days. I love Hwa Chong and Nanyang. Yes that's all I have to say.

Actually no, I'd like to point out that after attending See² I now know exactly how fail government-aided schools are, despite being government-aided GDI. Especially *cough* a particular school I know *cough*. Thank you everyone for making me feel at home from the 24th to the 26th. Made a lot of new friends. Yiren is my twin lol it's funny as hell.


I honestly doubt you can spot me so don't bother.

New Moon Gala Premiere
I felt pretty good because most of my friends were there - Tasha, Siewkiang, Clara, RX, even Bradford and Jonathan. Jonathan was a freaking idiot at first he wanted to go and then later I phoned him up to have him tell me he's too depressed to go even though he sounded like he was alright and then later because Bradford called him he decided to come along. How do you spell funny?

Anyway, it was fun running around with Tasha and Bradford before that and then later I was one of the three judges for the lookalike contest. It was cool to be on the red carpet while I was doing the judging but luckily there were two other judges - Rahimah and Terrence - so that I could be impartial and not be accused of being biased.

<--!SPOILER AHEAD-->
The movie > the book. The movie took out unnecessary details, exemplified the heartbreak (to make people understand it more), made Victoria fierce, explained Harry Clearwater's heart attack, made Bella less retarded, Edward more dashing, Jacob less immature, Charlie much cuter, Alice much awesome-r, Rosalie much hotter, Laurent more fearful, Aro less fake, Jane more HBIC, Jessica more I'mma-talk-till-you-die-ish. In fact, as a Team Edward supporter, I like movie!Jacob so much better than book!Jacob.

And Taylor Lautner should put on an act his entire life. He does a better job acting than being himself, lol. Srsly.
<--!END SPOILER-->

The best part of the night though was SK, Tasha, Clara, RX and I sitting on the floor to watch the movie. Reason? We were given extreme front row seats, and yes by that I mean the very first row, so we saved our necks by sitting on the floor and leaning our necks onto the seats itself. I used my haversack as a backrest to prevent my backbone from permanently getting into a curved state.


All of us. I was wearing my Team Alice shirt that Tasha had help me print. LOVE YA BB. <3 Thanks Izzati for the edit.

I'm loving the standess. GDI I should have taken my own photo with Tasha, boo. But anyway yeah you can basically infer that I had fun. I was still high after the movie because it was so mindwrecking.

Yeap. BEST STRING OF EVENTS IN MY LIFE SO FAR.

You Are Angel

You have a pretty dark past, but you've changed your ways... and possibly not by choice. These days, you try to do your best to be a good person. You have a sore spot for anyone who hurts anyone else. You are a true romantic, but you can't be with the person you truly love. And you are completely torn up about it. At your core, you're a loner. You are light-hearted and funny, but deep down you're really quite tormented.

You Think That Power is Glamourous

You are drawn to people who have a high position in life. You may not like it, but money is makes the world go round... and you envy those behind the steering wheel. You would like to have the ability to buy or do anything you want. You think luxury is naturally quite glamourous. It's not surprising that you're attracted to people who've achieved a high status in life. Success is very alluring. Besides, if you want to be successful, your best bet is to surround yourself with people who've already made it... and hope it rubs off on you!

You Are the Dynamic One in Your Family

Family members who haven't seen you in a while may joke that they hardly recognize you. And it's true that you change a lot. You are very bright and quick-witted. You have to keep moving and keep learning to satisfy all your curiosities. While your life travels and studies may take you far away from your family, you're always close to them in your heart. And of all your family members, you're the most interested in family history and genealogy. You want to learn as much about your family as possible.

You Are Complex and Brilliant

You have extremely interesting thoughts and complicated theories. You're always plunging deeper into whatever subject you happen to be studying. People make find your ideas confusing and even disorienting. That's disappointing because you are actually a very organized and orderly thinker. Your energy level super high. It's more of a challenge for you to get your brain to shut off than it is for you to turn it on. Your signature latte would be strong. Heavy on the espresso and light on the milk. You've got work to do, and you need every milligram of caffeine to count.

Thanks for all the flattery you have slathered on, Blogthings, I appreciate it. :D



I have gone from INTJ (The Strategist) to being INTP (The Engineer), in terms of my personality type. According to the page, I can be a/an:

I have never liked Taycob but I think he looks pretty cute in this picture where he's pecking Kstew.

Am halfway done packing for my camp. I refuse to sleep now because I want to wake up late and slowly put in the last pieces. I'll be heading to McD's for breakfast with Shuning before the camp, but I will miss Echo early. :'(

You Put Yourself Somewhere in the Middle

You've gotten quite good at not putting yourself last, but you don't ever seem to manage to put yourself first. You manage to get by, but sometimes you can't help but feel like stress is getting the better of you. While you may not be able to put yourself first all the time, give it a try every so often. It may be hard to do, but it's really just as simple as saying "no" more often. The world will be fine without you, even if you drop out for a day.

You Should Have Curly Hair

You are cheerful, outgoing, and downright bouncy. People find you to be very personable and real. You are confident in your own skin, and you don't feel like you have to fake anything. You are very independent and unique. You wouldn't like to look like every other person on the street. People find that you're honest, and it's easy to trust you. Others expect you to be honest in all facets of your life.

You Are Cinnamon Flavored Toothpaste

You are passionate about most things in life, and you really put your all into anything you undertake. You believe life should be lived fully and well. You probably even get really into brushing your teeth. You have strong preferences. You tend to either deeply love something or hate it fully. And when you do love something, you tend to overdo it a bit. Moderation is not really a word in your vocabulary.

Your Fashion Style is Playful

You love fashion, but unlike most fashionable folks, you're no snob or label lover. In fact, the thing you like most about fashion is being able to try on different looks. You're very eclectic. You are the type to mix and match interesting items. You'll wear something designer with something discount. Or you'll sport something classic with something vintage. You truly believe that fashion should be fun. And you're having a lot of fun breaking all of the rules.

You Are a Chicken

You are a very observant and even snoopy creature. You are curious about the world, and you're always aware of what's going on. And while you're interested in the world around you, you are also very private. You are protective of your personal space, and you don't like it when you feel like your boundaries are being crossed. You can get along with others, even in a big group, as long as you're able to maintain your uniqueness and individuality.

People Love That You're Kind and Compassionate

You're the kind of gal or guy who really enjoys putting other people first. You enjoy pitching in and making a difference. Your heart really goes out to anyone in need. In fact, it's difficult for you to turn your back on someone who's struggling. As long as you have friends who don't take advantage of you, your empathy is only a good thing. If there were more people in the world like you, you wouldn't feel like you have to look out for everyone.

Most of the quizzes aren't accurate today. Oh well. PRINGLES, HERE I COME!



I had this really BAMF dream last night.

It begun with a house. I was with a bunch of other weird girls. I felt like Allison Harvard from ANTM, you know. Like I was the creepy psycho who liked nosebleeds and the rest were stereotype bimbos who just wanted to snag contracts to fame. You know. Whatever.

It was like a huge house with different units assigned to different girls. I got the ground floor unit with the unit number 5Q. It was a very long unit number actually but the girl next door was 4Q and the girls on the second floor were 3Q, 2Q and 1Q respectively. I highly suspect this is because of my 4Q gang.

Anyway, the best part is this: I have three rooms. Yes. The one in the middle opens immediately to my bed. The one on the left is a toilet+bathroom. The one on the right is a freaking walk-in closet. I know, even the units in my dreams are so awesome.

Then, after all the girls dumped their luggages respectively into their walk-in closets (Girl from 4Q got only two rooms in her unit for the toilet+bathroom was in her bedroom), we went to some random corner to do sparring with zombies.

It's like I was stuck in a video game except it was IRL. And each time I "died", I would just black out and wake up again a few minutes later. Everyone else i.e. the girls were taking care of the rest of the zombies but I had to battle this male zombie.

I died a few times because the weapons available - the lightsaber, the ancient Chinese metal sword, some crystal-like knife - all passed through that male zombie quickly. And each time he would just keep coming for me.

Finally, somehow, I decided that I should suck in the aura of the magical clothes on display around me and blow it at the male zombie. They hypnotized him and the command he got was probably to walk away and kill the other zombies.

COOL RIGHT.

Oh and there was a time we were eating in the dining hall, then we were instructed to change. I informed them that I had left my clothes back in my unit so an old lady was dispensed to lead me back to my unit to get my stuff. We had to walk down a long hall, then take this jerky lift that makes you think you're falling off every time it moves.

But the view from the lift (made of wood and glass) is perfect. My adrenaline was pumping in the dream, I swear. The old lady was nice though, but the long hallways I had to travel down with her gave me the creeps.

BUT THE LIFT! It travelled upwards and even in the basement there were florals. Once above though, all I could see was a lush garden. And the lift even travelled sideways. Oh man I want to sit in that lift again tonight.

And then, after that, I saw myself using the computer in my own unit when I totally freaked out because I'd learnt that my elder bro got mio TV and hence my Internet connection is now permanently cut off. I was ready to start shouting at him when I woke up.

I'm still thinking of that male zombie now though. He's so hot when he was hypnotized.

Just trying to cheer myself up, because the Yeah Yeah Yeahs concert tickets have been sold out. Sigh. Thanks, Izzati, for the sympathy.

Also, there's a great big idiot out there lurking on Plurk. Seriously, I wasn't even defending the books when he butts in and says I'm "addicted". He needs a dictionary, spectacles and a brain.

Plus, I got verbally whammed by my brother for the three hundredth time (more or less). I'm pining for the day I get to be free of his unreasonable dictatorship.

Ugh.

Photoshop is now available in the Market for Android but I can't find it. Another piece of bad news as well.

You know what, I'm just going to turn in and worry about getting a migraine tomorrow. Am attending the Adobe Photoshop Young Guru Award prize-giving ceremony, wish me luck.
