i actually received a present from my student for children's day! HAHA.
this is what she gave me:
er. it's paper-made grass! HAHA. it's not something i can USE. more importantly, it's the thought that counts! :D how sweet of her. i kept it inside my fileofpreciousstuff. =x
my individual student always reminds me of myself lah!
everytime i ask her, "so how? where's ur hw? never do again right!"
she'll act blur then start giving lots of reasons. =.=
"huh? you got give me hw meh! i always duno one. aiya. my mother lah. always give me extra work to do. give me timetable then must follow the time. then exam coming. aiya. my mother lah!"
okay, i didnt blame my mum cos she doesn't bother giving me timetables to follow lah.
she always tells me i'm stupid, so as long as i work hard, she's happy. LOL.
HOWEVER, i always give a lot of crappy reasons for not doing theory. COS IT'S PLAIN BORING.
until now i still think so.
sigh. sadly, theory is essential. ):
omg. how can i forget to announce the deathdate of sevenleaves!
went to celebrate my granny's bday just now. the main attention was not my granny but my youngest cousin. haha! if im not wrong, chloe's one now. wahaha. she's so funny man. after hearing her mum say 'uber then'. she finds it so amusing she kept saying it! like 'uber then! uber then! uber HEEEHEEEHEEHEEEEEEEEE!' and it goes over n over again. LOL!
and the punishments she gets for being naughty are super funny lah.
1) she's being fed with chilli.
OR
2) her grandma uses the cane on her mum she feels sad bout it and cries.
haha! the second one's so cute. she's so young but she feels sad when someone bullies her mum.
that little cousin i mentioned is none other than this cute girl below! (:
:D
oh. just now i randomly had this thought: why is it that only chineses have english names (e.g. jasmin tan jiemin) and other races like indians and malays don't? =/
caught UNDERDOG today! wasn't excited bout the show, neither was i after that. =x just watched it cos i was feeling irritatingly bored this morning. it's the typical superhero show though yes, i have to admit i was laughing away at some parts. butbut! IM SHORT OF MONEY NOW. ): now i seriously regret spending that $7. ahh. but again, it's not exactly a habit of mine to cry over spilt milk. if i didn't watch it, i won't know it's a waste of my money and should have just tried watching it online right? HAHA.
okay, at least band camp's tmr! :D:D YAY! the only thing i dread is having to wake up at 7am again! omg. that's the time my alarm clock will be ringing for the whole of hols. ): crap.
HAPPY MID AUTUMN FEST! :D drp's getting more n more crappy. mr albert as usual came in randomly. mr albert: WAH! so MANY people today ah! (the fact is. there were only four of us in the greenhouse. =.= ) terris: HUH? what many! only four of us what! Jonathan cant make it today cos of work. mr albert: OH. means if jonathan comes then you all can form hi-5 lah! LOL. fyi mr albert's 40+. must be watching too many kids shows with his oneyrold daughter. lol.
did this drawahousenknowurpersonality thing just now.
my house:
my polka dots turned out to look like fungus growing all over my house. ):
You are sensitive and indecisive at times. You are good at making friends and when the joyful moment arrives, you make the most out of it. You will avoid being alone and seek the company of others whenever possible. You love excitement and create it wherever you go.You are a very tidy person. There's nothing wrong with that because you're pretty popular among friends. son. You see the world as it is, not as you believe it should be. You added a flower into your drawing. The flower signifies that you long for love. It also safe to say that others don't see you as a flirt. You don't think much about yourself.
that sentence is totally not true! if u ever get a chance to step into my room, you'll know. it looks like the aftermath of a tsunami/earthquake/when bigbadwolf blew the straw house down! =x
4/5 sunflower seeds i grew on thurs have grown OUT OF THE SOIL! wahahaha. yippee! now i can sleep with sweeter dreams. :D some uncle say the school's seeds are actually of good quality even though it's expired. cos usually the seeds take WEEKS to grow. ours only took DAYS! wahaha.
my life's like a routine still. =x
drp,
band,
supper.
okay. plus i went to bugis today to shop with jasmine today. again. LOL.
BUT, it's not like everyday i'm doing the same thing. even though it's different only to a small extent. heh. i guess we can't always be doing NEW stuff. or else it'll be so tiring having to adapt all the time yea? wahaha. at least i'm happy now! (: another reason to sleep better. HAHA.
i planted my germinated sunflower seeds in newly-bought soil today! (: hopefully i didn't drown my seeds. will know in one or two weeks time. wahaha.
went over to 201 to do some shopping today. u ask, what can u shop for at 201?! or.. what's 201? =/ i went to do my childrens' day shopping there! :D
realised retail therapy aint exactly very effective cos it comes with side effects like giddyness if you overdo it. ):
anyway, 201's like a really great place to buy toys and cute stuff! i bought A LOT of stuff for like $1-2 each! wahaha. didn't know what to buy at first, but when the momentum started. omg. i couldnt stop. cos i kept seeing cuter things each time. LOL. i realised i bought too many things when i came back. =x nvm, i shall save it for next yr... or if there arent any little kids coming for make-up classes, i'll give it to people with really young siblings? quick, take ur queue number! HAHA!
okayokay. let me show you the things i bought! (: hm, some of the stuff are for my little cousins who i'll see next week.
i came back with this THREE BIG BAGS of stuff. =x and below are all the stuff i bought. LOL.
when i took everything out, i felt like a stall holder of games stalls you see at pasar malams.
now you'll see some of the things i prefer over the others:
this is the packaging of one of the stationary sets which caught my eye. :D
okay, this is the only thing i bought for $3. it's for my fav class. i admit im bias! HAHA. they like disney princess stuff. but i couldnt find nice stuff. so i, or rather, THEY shall make do with hello kitty. heh.
i think this is lovable! it's those things whereby you pull the string then the helicopter moves and plus there's light! HAHA. it's for my 3-yr-olds! (:
and this is for my two lil girls who love being called princesses in my class. they're fans of strawberry shortcake.
finally, after all that scraping out of pricetags, putting them in order, packing them in the pretty plastic bags, and writing their names. IM DONE! :D
YAY! im so glad i managed to buy everything today. now im worry-free! :D
omg. i came across this article talking bout how SOME women actually get high over male sweat. o.O
it's this gene-linked function in the body that helps perceive whether that smell is actually pleasant or just an odour. it can even improve someone's mood. LOL.
weird weird world we're living in. =/
i'm probably part of the cause of why it's weird. HAHA! :D
okay. i think everyone's done it before lah. the growing of beansprouts thing during science lessons in primary school.
we used seeds that expired in 2002. =.= mr albert said the greenhouse's too small and nobody is free to plant them. so pathetic lah! no wonder TP is not very well-known for sciences. =x we didnt use green beans though. lol. the greenhouse is pathetic but NOT that pathetic. there were sweet basil seeds, purple basil seeds, butterhead seeds, cherry tomato seeds, and EGG tomato seeds. i have no idea wth EGG tomatoes are. =x and since the seeds have alr expired, we dont even know if they'll grow. LOL. mr albert said he's just letting us PLAY with the seeds.
basically there are like two ways to do it. one which is 100% guaranteed growth. the other 60-70% guaranteed. and we actually used the 60-70% guaranteed growth method for cherry tomatoes. ):
i just finished watching legally blonde parts 1 n 2 today. HAHA. okay. im slow AGAIN.
okay, back to my point. elle woods is such a great woman! she'll be my new motivation to whatever i want to do. WAHAHA. the only thing i dislike is her thinking that orange is the ugliest colour on earth! argh! i hate people like that. HOW CAN THEY! ^$%&^%$*%
nvm, at least tomorrow is polishing -of-instruments day! the horns shall be polished till you can see ur teeth SHINE in it! HAHA. (:
went through this aural exercise with my students yest. (sunday!) they were suppose to identify which instruments were being played. and they actually knew ALL the answers without any prompting! flute, violin, double bass, blah blah. omg. felt a sense of satisfaction lahh! they're SO smart man! only heard a few times and they know it already. i swear i only knew all these after i joined band. which is sec 1! (they're only four/five btw.) =x i'm such a failure. LOL.
differential research prog (chilled hydroponics!) started TODAY! it was seriously awkward in the beginning. like you know. when u still dont know anyone. yahyah. i don't get to laugh for nothing like i always do! =x had to ACT SERIOUS and all! ERHEM, I CAN OKAAAY.* but quite cool lah. we get to work under the SUN in the greenhouse. instead of being stuck in the sickening lab with sickening labcoats on. =x BUT I HATE WEARING THE MASK. OMG. i almost SUFFOCATED and DIE! =X
there were orchids, PUMPKINS, basils, lettuces and other stuff in the greenhouse! so basically, we will learn how to maintain the greenhouse and plant plants! HAHA. were told that we'll be planting CHERRY TOMOATOES! (how cool is that! HAHA. :D) and best of it, we get to bring the veggies home! LOL. maybe someday you'll get to eat specially-grown-by-jasmin-veggies! :D man! if only they had more flowers instead of just orchids!
wahaha. today's quite fulfilling. i finally feel like im not wasting my life away. =x
and my life's like full of surprises these few days! jasmine actually bought this ring for me which she knew i like. and she bought one for herself too! which means.. we have the same stuff! HAHA. :D dont be jealous yah! LOL.
BYE ladies and gentlemen! HAHA.
p.s. don't you think the mocca advertisement on tv is disgusting? i feel like puking everytime i see that guy. =x can't help it!
am looking forward to seeing my kids tomorrow! :D no idea why. maybe cos i bought transformer stickers for the guys. LOL. i think im more excited than them. =x looking for transformer stickers is like looking for a four leaf clover okay!
i realised children's day is coming! three more weeks LAH!!! WHAT SHOULD I BUY? HEEEEELLLLP! *squeezed out the last drop of brain juice. ): i'll really pity my kids if they get lousy children's day presents like rabbit sweets from their ever-so-boring teacher. =/ sigh*
think im the last few human beings on earth who watched ratatouille. but, heck! it was great. :D maybe i shall consider changing my perspective of how disgusting rats are. =x been long since i watched a cartoon movie. in the cinemas i mean. i'm so gonna watch 'enchanted' too! yippee!
and Jane actually surprised me by giving me a birthday present. she said she doesnt know when she'll see me again so she decided giving me in advance. three months eh. it's a pretty pretty necklace with a horn pendent in a orange perlini's plastic bag! :D shall save it for concert day! =x
today's (as in wednesday lah) damn scary lah! it determines whether i get to continue slacking like a erm, lazy person? =x or start stressing up the next few days! cos we got back our results today! i obviously did not pass with flying colours, but at least i didnt fail (which i expected to) for subjects like oc. must really thank li hong, the great master of oc. HAHAHA. (:
law wei was super funny today lah. everytime he receives a sms, he gets freaked out. afraid that it might be the results. wahahha.
i'd better remind myself to work hard nxt sem. i really hope i do. think i need someone to remind me lah. i always procRastinate. ): oh my. must start pasting orange coloured papers with the word "STUDY" everywhere in my house! wahaha!
went over to SP. jane called me randomly today (as usual. HAHA.) and told me she urgently needed someone to help her out with ushering. the Friend of Singa Award Ceremony was held there. awards were given to students who showed exceptional acts of kindness and graciousness. (lol. which i doubt majority did. i think teachers will just randomly pick someone they like. isn't it how it usually is? =x)
but anyway, there was this extremely cute boy who's around pri 2/3. while i was showing him where the toilet was. he saw the food outside the convention lounge.
cuteboy: do we get to eat later? orange: you get to eat after the ceremony, ithink. =x cuteboy: REALLY? :D are there fishballs??? orange: im notreallysure.. but that thing over there looks like fishballs. (points to something which turned out to be doughnuts.) cuteboy: OHHHHH!!! FISHBALLS!!! I LOVEFISHBALLS! :D:D:D (jumps around excitedly!)
LOL. so cute rightright! okay. and i dont sound like a paedophile okay.
mr tan brought 'peter and the wolf' and 'selections from grease' yest.listening to 'selections from grease' reminds me of dunman band. and i miss dunman band. ): 'peter and the wolf' looked like some boring song when we tried practising during sectionals. it's like bits and pieces of random weird sounds. =x LOL. but, it turned out to be something that can be one of ourconcert's special highlights! :D cos there'll probably be roleplay and stuff!
went searching for the story cos i couldnt really hear what mr tan was saying yest. and then i found:http://library.thinkquest.org/17321/data/esmusic.html.the bits and pieces of random weird sounds i mentioned can be found there too. =x the story isnt exciting stuff like harry potter oridontknowwhat. but if people like AMANDA. yes, amanda, u dont have to pinch urself. =x yahyah. if she acts as the big bad wolf or something. omg. i think it'll really really be a special highlight! HAHA! :D
watched hairspray with lynette today. havent seen her ever since school started. the show was absobloomylutely nice! i felt myself smiling through it! :D
my parents just came back from their DATE. (tsk. take the chance that im not around!) wahaha. mummy crazily bought FOUR pairsof shoes for me. @.@ more imptly, they brought back THAI food! :D:D YAY!!! someday, i'll marry a thai chef. =x (it doesn't hurt to dream. HAHA!)
last but not least, there's band TOMORROW! woohoo! today's definitely a happy day! :D
gim ann came over today to play his violin while i obviously can only play the piano. =x
played classicals to thetypicalbutstillwelllovedbyME DISNEY songs!! :D:D i dont know how many millions of stuff we played (more than my fingers can count!) but i think we played for appox. 3 hours non-stop! i think this is the longest time i played my piano ever since... it'sseriouslythatlongiforgot! =x i should be ashamed of myself for being lazy! sigh*
he brought "butterfly lover's" (that very chinese song i like! LOL). the piano score was the orchestra reducted score with A LOT of tau-gays (breansprouts = notes) everywhere! omg lah! after running through the song once, i felt like i was seeing stars EVERYWHERE! it obviously didnt sound good since i played like crap. but i had fun. which is of course of greater importance than whether my neighbours were disturbed. OOPS! =x wheee!
woohoo! and im looking forward to seeing lynette (my pri sch bestie!) tomorrow! :D
finally going to move on to bach's prelude and fugue! :D
OHHH. i tell you, walking around changi V. in the hot sun today was crazy! CRAZEEE! i almost DIED of heat stroke lah! stupidly went in the NOON. AIYO (speaks auntie-ly) , of all times, NOON. but at least jasmine got to take photos of cats. there are really a lot of cats there. wahaha.
suddenly i remember jasmine talking bout her friend who shaved her eyebrows. and then she thinks her friend looked shocked 24/7 without those eyebrows of hers. like that -> O.O can you imagine??? LMAO! =x and we started thinking that without those eyebrows on, we can draw our own eyebrows! like angry faces (you know the one with the eyebrows diagonally down!) blah blah. lol! was damn funny i seriously think i laughed like a monkey on the mrt. =x
shall go back to watching mr bean's holiday now! BYEEE TO THE YOUNG/OLD/PRETTY/ HANDSOME/UGLY/FAT/SKINNY/TALL/SHORT/WITHorWITHOUT EYEBROWS! HAHAHA. :D
UPDATES ON SEVENLEAVES(trumpet fanfare*): she has grown a new leaf! now she has TWELVE leaves. or so i think. i keep counting again n again 'cause i keep forgetting where i started counting from. =/ bangs my head against the wall and DIE. (my fav phrase. =x )
ended up watching the bourne ultimatum today. i have to admit that i didnt know what the hell was happening until the last few minutes. so i was super bored. =x but then, when i finally understood the whole show (which is the last few mins), i think the story's quite interesting. =x too late u'll say. wahaha. at least i still understood the story!
met up with jasmine (again! :D ) to go to the library cos she needed to look for stuff. and then we ended up walking around again. lol. my legs are quite soar now. =/
we're going to changi v. (and maybe pulau ubin) tomorrow to take photos (obviously she's the one taking photos! HAHA.) ! :D and we're finally going to eat LONG JOHN BREAKFAST! FINALLY FINALLY! double happiness. yay yay!
i slept, watched shows, slept, walked around the house, smsed, watched shows again, yah. that's bout it. =x oh. i shall add on to the list by playing piano later. so it doesnt seem that boring. HAHA.
went to far east with Jasmine yest. but the both of us somehow were tired and bored that we weren't really amazed by stuff like we usually do. so we didnt buy anything much. ): but! we started being high on the way home and laughed like mad people on the mrt. somehow she thought of weird things like earrings with flashing lights that we can wear to make ourselves famous or something. LOL.
anyway! i received flowers and a box of ferrero rocher (omg. i realised it's SO DIFFICULT to spell that. i had to think for a whole minute. =.= ) from my students on sunday! :D and to think that one of the flowers was from the crazy girl in my class who loves letting down her hair and shake her head crazily. HAHA. i can see myself in her future. =x i realised she's really cute lah. laughing at random things and the way she likes pointing at numbers and reading it out again and again when she's bored. that funny girl. (:
ahhh. i wanna catch a movie tmr. i dont know if i should watch 'evan almighty' or 'no reservations' or 'i-dont-know-what'. 'evan almighty' is a comedy (i love comedies!! :D ), but i read comments bout it saying it's boring but, watching love stories like no reservations again seems like a waste of money. ): HOOOWWWW.
er. it's paper-made grass! HAHA. it's not something i can USE. more importantly, it's the thought that counts! :D how sweet of her. i kept it inside my fileofpreciousstuff. =x
:D
