so long, farewell

Countdown Clocks at WishAFriend.com

My flight tomorrow is at 6.50am I think. Going to the airport at 5am. :/ I hope it goes well.. I'm personally not too keen on it, but oh well. Its family after all. I won't be blogging until I get back. So, Have a GREAT NEW YEAR and enjoy what's left of the holidays. :D

Talking about New Year, have you done your resolutions yet? On gurl.com, there are a few tips for making some according to your zodiac sign. Here's mine:

"Leo: Your key phrase is 'I will,' and because of your immense charm and magnetism, it's your will that's often followed. At times, this can become overbearing and arrogant. A good resolution would be to try to remember that the needs and desires of others are just as important -- okay, almost as important -- as yours. You'd be surprised how charming selflessness can be. "

apart from that, nothing much really. I'm going to get some rest now. Have a great day all!

so now

My mom basically kept repeating something to me today:

"since you want to be a doctor, you have to study really hard from now on you know..."

Today and yesterday. I guess I have to right? I mean, SPM is the biggest exam yet and well, I can't "miraculously" get an A for every subject like I did in PMR. Kicking my butt is what I have to do from now on. :/ Mom also told me today that I can only use the computer once a week from next year on. And I'm going to GO MAD with all the activities and tuition I'm planning on taking next year. I'll probably be quitting ST. JOHN'S AMBULANCE SOCIETY. Its getting pretty : -__- to me. If something new comes up I'll join that, maybe.

I've gotten news about something that is troubling. Its nothing to do with me but well, I can't help but feel bad. :( People deserve to be happy right?

Tomorrow is coming all too fast. :(

:/

I wonder what's wrong with Jess. I can't talk to her since the phone has a recorder and all. Maybe she's mad at me. I don't really know.

I'll be flying to Tawau tomorrow for my cousin's wedding on the 29th. I haven't packed. Smart huh? And I wonder how it'll be. I "enjoyed" my time the last trip to Tawau which was in '06 but still, I don't know... I hate being forced into awkward social situations. :/ and I have to read a POEM in front of everyone. GREAT right? I hope they don't make me play the piano during the wedding.

HAIH.

7AS

I got 7As. :D I'm glad about that. Finally I can actually feel comfortable and not nervous with everything. woot!! :)

Jess got the same as me.
Mel got 2As, 4Bs and one C.
And Wae got 5As and 2Bs.

WE ALL PASSED!! isn't that great??!?!?!? :D :D

pain, pain, pain

I've got a stupid headache now. I'm sick. Isn't that great? Tomorrow is the PMR results day. woopdeedoo. I could honestly wait forever for it, no rush. haha. REMINDER to all SMK USJ 13-ians, don't forget to wear your FULL SCHOOL uniform. Its the rules.

Christmas

HAVE A BLESSED JESUS-FILLED CHRISTMAS

Mass at midnight was nice. Watching the CDM Youth perform (not amazingly of course but tolerably) made me a little jealous. Haha. Next year, I'll be the one jumping in front of everyone. It was such a beautiful mass, really, it was. I remember how most of the lights were turned off at the beginning of mass but when we started to sing "Glory to God" (which we don't sing all through Advent, as a preparation for Christmas), the lights all went on and it was such a beautiful sight.

Surprisingly I did get a Christmas present from my parents. A Philips mp3 player. I know, its probably something all of you have but being someone of so little knowledge of "trendy" things, it was a big deal for me. Mom and I bought a shirt and a bottle of Port wine for my dad. Aaron got perfume and some fancy soap. He was really happy. :) All in all, this Christmas is a wonderful one. I only wish I had something to give my mom. :/

DONE DONE & DONE

I'VE FINALLY UPDATED MY STORY. and not too late. It is Sunday night! Just as I have hoped. Hopefully I will update it again before school reopens. :D

hi

I had a great talk with one of my friends, Meg this morning. Its nice to know people care. Today was okay, I guess. Tomorrow is Christmas Eve. wow. fast. I'm not getting anything for Christmas, that I know. BUT I've got my family and my dearest friends. BESIDES, Christmas ISN'T about presents. Its about the birth of Christ. Its about being thankful for things and reaching out.

:]

I guess I've not been myself lately. But I guess, that's the toll of everything. Take it or leave it, that's how things are. I'm feeling much better right now, though I was pretty down this morning.

:D :D MY BFF IS BACK. AHAHAHHAHA. I'M SO HAPPY I'M USING THE "BFF" THINGY!!! YAY WAE IS BACK! HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!!!!! :D :D :D

crapped

I didn't get to go shopping as intended too. today's actually been pretty crap. I'm bored as usual. Tomorrow, mom and I will be going to school and getting my books and then my uniform, finally ending up buying some clothes for Christmas. I hope it works out. I don't care if it takes all day, i have to get it all done tomorrow.

I'm still a lacto-vegetarian so you know; I just found out Milo Ventimiglia is one too. HAHAHAHAH. I had no idea. ;D I've been going strong since Wednesday with no intention of stopping. Christmas is next week and I'm in charge of putting up the tree. By MYSELF. Life is so kind to me, no?

Crazy

Next year is coming so soon isn't it? Its all so fast its scary. :? I wonder how life will be in Form Four. I wonder if I'll get 7A's. I wonder if Helmi will ever update his blog regularly. (lol)

Are you all bored nowadays?

I am 100% usually. Hopefully I'll be able occupy myself tomorrow with something beneficial. I'm usually wasting my day away. I guess I'll be able to finish my chapter by this Sunday so I can actually update my story before the New Year. I hate people who update slowly and here I am. AND if you want to read my story, too bad. I won't share the link. Its on FanFiction.net or FictionPress.com. So hahaha, have fun digging if you're actually bothered. ;D

Rae-Wae (yup, a stupid nickname I made up) will be back on Sunday. Her boyfriend is practically dying without her. Seriously. To quote him when I asked how Taiwan was , "Nice but I missed her too much.." Don't be daft and figure out who the :her: is.

On the lighter note, I want to read the novel "Me and Mr. Darcy". Yes, chick lit but its humourous and has two of my favourite elements in it: Mr Darcy and Mr Darcy. hahahaha. Okay, well Mr Darcy counts as one and well, conflict and humour are good right? Most of you probably think I'm nuts but hey, Mr Darcy IS THE PERFECT guy. Once you get past his stubborn pig headed-ness. Girls usually forget that he is actually a complete pain before you see the deep, sensitive, utterly noble guy inside. I've met pains in my life, but sadly, no Mr. Darcy-s.

I think this post is long enough for now. I'm clearly bored enough as to jumo from topic to topic like this. So in the words of Air Supply; 'there's nothing more to say but goodbye'. :D

Gizzy

I am going shopping tomorrow! yay! I know, so girly right? My vegetarian thing is going well but right now, I'm feeling a bit dizzy. I can barely stand, maybe my body is not used to it yet. Hm. Oh well. I'll be fine soon enough I guess. My Lola went back to Tawau today and it was in the airport that I nearly keeled over and collapsed.

Dizzy, dizzy, dizzy.

Topher came back form Taiwan today. he said it was fun. I'm not jealous but well, i wish I could go somewhere too. But I am next week; my cousin's wedding is on the 29th. I'll only be back on the 1st of January. woopdeedoo.

I'm off to rest now before my head blows into a millions pieces or something. Ciao.

OH DEAR

PMR RESULTS: 27th DECEMBER!

I am so scared right now. 0___0"

Vegetarians

I am officially going vegetarian. Well, I'll be starting from now on I'll be cutting down on meat until I finally stop one day. haha. Well, come to think of it we actually started out as vegetarians and not meat eaters. This is going to be hard, but well, I guess its a good cause. I know all of you think I'm nuts by now. Oh well.

9.29am

amateur

Finally my writer's block is clearing up and I can finally place my third installment of my story online. :] I guess the cure was reading an amateur's attempt to writing a story set in the medieval age and messing it up. I kept noticing errors here and there and while I put recommendations in the reviews, I did write "never give up writing although you may have limited reviews". And well, I have to start writing again so I won't be a hypocrite right?

Finally :]
9.19am

Vegan?

MAYBE I should be a vegetarian. I know you're probably thinking "she's gone nuts", but hey, I'm seriously considering this. Maybe I should, what do you think? Here's a video that WILL make you think.

6.35pm

today

I think I'll probably be getting a haircut soon. I'm not too sure myself. Things have been going okay. Except for this stupid dream I had this morning about school. PMR results ARE suppose to be out next week so its not my fault I'm feeling the heat.

I didn't do much today except make a nice sandwich. Yes, that is in fact the highlight of my day. whoopee. Tomorrow my mom will be taking my grandmother shopping. If I come along I'll probably be forced into a million outfits. Ignore the exaggeration. I am so bored nowadays. Gosh what else can I possibly blog about?

5.43pm

what memories that song brings to me. :] Standard 3 in Sekolah Sri Acmar. The whole school had to sing that after our concert. I was a cowgirl (yes, with guns and all). It was basically each standard having to perform a one of the characters in the sotry. The older kids got main roles, whereas the younger ones had to perform at a certain point in the production. That year I got to be the cowgirl with my classmates and I was in the front row. haha. :) I missed performing like that. It was so much fun. Anyway, after that, all of us (Std. 1 to 6) had to sing the school song, a pop song and then the national anthem.

I remember during our music classes, our teacher, Mr. "Andre" as he calls himself, liked to pull me in front to sing. I remember I played "Maria" in the mini production of "Do, Re, Mi". haha. I really miss those days. Music was ACTUALLY fun and part of the school. Hm, well private schools are like that. oh well.

2.47pm

fixed

I have put most of the numbers I could figure out into the handphone. woop-dee-doo. Gosh, i miss Wae. I'm sure she's having fun in Lumut. haih.

Jess got the PERMATA 2007 from school today since she went to do the SPBT books. She says the cover is a terrible shade of green. I hope what's INSIDE is better. :] I'm listening to Celine Dion songs now. Haha. I'm truly bored in a way. lol. I wish I had her voice. don't we all?

2.23pm

fine

The phone thing has been fixed. Except now, I need all the information I once stored into the hp again. just great. Oh well, as long as its working now.

10.13am

frustration

I am glad I've finally taken up a "sport". I can vent all my anger or whatever I feel into running. I am feeling a bit miffed once more. Yes, I screwed up very well today in more ways than one. Hopefully I'll be able to fix things properly. I hate messing up, don't you.

Inferiority complex= me

11.23pm

unsupportive

I received a disturbing email from my BFF and well, I must admit its true. I know I will probably come across as being selfish but well, you have been too. Hopefully, you'll see they right and wrong about this, I really hope you do.

10.04pm

I MESSED UP AGAIN. my mom is going to kill me.

what did I do?

I somehow got her SIM card (the hp ones you know) rejected. great. i am so stupid.

stuff

Yesterday was fun. Really. :) I mean,sure we lost. [-.-] but heck, I'm sure we all had so much fun. and I scored a GOAL! Finally a goal. :D :D

and then, stuff got confusing. with my mom hinting heavily on it. i hate that. I wish Wae was here. or Jess was at home. or Lu was here. this sucks.
2.16pm

Its going to start in 35 minutes. Gosh, I've nervous. I hope we don't lose badly. that would really, really suck.

haih..

6.54am

freaking out

From now on I'll try to be different about things. Maybe I've been unfair and stubborn with you and I guess its all my fault really. FYI: the 'you' I'm talking about it general, not specific. I currently hate myself again. And tomorrow is our competition which is causing me to freak out. Yes, Grace freaking out is worth freaking out over.

Grr.
7.46pm

crapped

I crapped again. gosh why is it so hard? :(

7.45pm

glorious

Watching Nickelodeon introduced me to this song. Its "Glorious" by Natalia Imbruglia. The one who acted alongside Rowan Atkinson in Johnny English. I find this song very "semagat"-ed. lol

BIG GAME TOMORROW. aiyaya. I hope we won't lose terribly.

I'm sure some if not all of you have heard of the Mother Teresa controversy earlier this year about her having doubts about God. To explain this, she did not lose her faith. She had times of weakness in her life and well, don't we all? Don't we all feel like giving up sometimes?

I had my own "moment" last month. I was miserable and ended up writing a letter to God and to the Poor Clares of Perpeual Adoration in Alabama, complaining and asking for prayers. They sent me her book (Mother Teresa's book) and a letter in reply. I cried when I received it today. I was so happy. The book actually costs RM89.90 here and that plus postage (15 US Dollars, which is RM49.70) costs RM139.60. That's a lot right? I'm really happy about it. I wanted to buy the book but it was too expensive. Then now, I get it in the mail for free.

God is really good to me. :)
5.41pm

I miss

I am so daft. I miss my best friend already and she just left at 9am. sniff. OH well, if all goes well, I'll join her in OBS next year. haha. I hope Rae/Wae/Suan Li shall have fun with the monkeys and Matt Long lookalikes. =.=

Today was a very beneficial practice for our Frisbee team. We had 5 people! wow!! =.= one day till the tournament which we'll probably lose anyway. I know, I'm so negative but heck, its the truth. I would like to win, but I'm sure I won't. Stupid U8 will be playing. grrrrr.

I have 4 of the COF books with me now. I'll take the rest from Jess tomorrow. I was flipping through the books and actually saw the growth of our characters. Shocking really. I'm feeling so sentimental. Or maybe just mental. Looking back I can clearly see how silly I've been through the times in my life. and how insensitive I was too. Next year is a new year and its coming in 16 days. so fast. and the PMR results are coming in 11 days as Helina kindly reminded me today. I hope I get all A's. or I will probably start weeping in school.

haih.

1.55pm

tired

I am so tired right now. We played Frisbee today at the USJ 12 field. Only Amil, Nazrin, Jess and I turned up for the team. But we saw J.W., Rizal, Nicholas, Azmi and Jefferson plus this other guy whom I don't know. They'll be playing for this Saturday though in a different team. Tomorrow we have practice again. I'm so tired. oh and today, I smacked a Frisbee down! :D :D I am so proud of that.

Tired, tired, tired.

Wae is leaving tomorrow. :( I hope she'll have fun in OBS which I'll probably will be going next year if she does. I'm currently reviewing original stories on FictionPress. There are honestly good stories out there. I'm proud to be on of the first people to read them.
12.46PM

wow

There is hope for me. Shocking really, but there is HOPE. :)

Hope

Sometimes, I wonder about life. I wonder why things don't go my way. I ask why life is cruel to those who love. It hurts to watch your family hurt, you friends hurt. The people you love carrying a burden; not a pretty sight, is it? I hate the fact that so many things, so many sad events have moulded us to the way we are now; yet at the same time I can only be thankful for the moments of weakness, of despair. I've heard a saying that Life never give, she only takes (ignore the sexism in that) but I say, Life gives everything, but sometimes, what we want, isn't what we need.

Maybe one day we'll look back at these times in our lives where we hate our pain and say, that has made me stronger. Like a phoenix is reborn from the flames that kills it, we have to go through fire, through pain in order to come our brand new, with new hope.

Good night.

emo emo emo

emo, emo, emo
Listening to such a romantic song makes me want to cry. At least Wae will cry with me. or at least stay on the verge of tears with me.
haih.

today's Frisbee was fun. Amil and Helmi were the ONLY ones who turned up. :/ but it was okay. Haih.

emo.

at.7.27pm
I am utterly crazy right now. I've been listening to Jon McLaughlin's whole album 'Indiana' and the whole CD is really really good. haha.

enchanted

Enchanted was wonderful. Really, really sweet and romantic. Sadly, its not real life. Makes me feel so sad because there's never going to be someone like that for every girl. The ballroom scene is so sweet. Because Robert (Patrick Dempsey) starts singing (singing along to the song that's playing) to Giselle (Amy Adams) while they dance ALTHOUGH he tells her before this that he doesn't sing or dance. (the irony is that he's doing both). The song is "So Close" by Jon McLaughin which makes me want to cry. I nearly bawled my eyes out. I know, I'm the Queen of Unstability when it comes to emotions.

You have to watch it. Although there are some real life "stuff" that would not make sense in the context of the movie, its a love story, a fairy tale. I only wish it could come true for all of us.

erm

TODAY

I honestly didn't do much today. My life is pretty boring nowadays. I didn't go for the auditions because of some stuff at home which I would not like to share. I've got nothing much to say really. I'm just online at 12 midnight wondering what I'm doing online at 12 midnight. That made sense in a way, don't deny it.

Let's play a game.

Imagine if you could be someone you wanted to be but then penguins came and attacked you. They needed you to go to the Poles (okay, fine I know they live in one of the Poles, I'm just not sure which) to save a drowning Walrus. Yes the Walrus was with the Carpenter as they tried to clean the beaches of the Poles in search of oysters to eat. Sadly the Carpenter, after being back stabbed by the Walrus, decided that the Walrus should pay.

So he threw the Walrus into the sea.

The Walrus was so stunned, he forgot how to swim. You arrive in time and pull the Walrus out and become an international hero. So now, life isn't too bad right?

see what happens at midnight. :)

2nd

I WON!!! HAHAHAHA.

I won a tote bag (what is that?) from the Enchanted competition I entered on Retakini.com. I won but sadly I didn't win tickets. Oh well, a tote bag (whatever that is) is okay too I guess. I got the 2nd prize but all i wanted was the consolation for two tickets. HAIH.

anyway, I'm guessing the prize isn't anything BIG but well, I won something and I'm happy. :D

pointlessness. is that even a word?

I spent 3 hours and a half in my piano teacher's house yesterday. Suan Li sent me a message about the supposed day of the PMR results. Isn't this fun? its coming closer and closer. 0__0

Today I went to the USJ 12 field to play frisbee. My team won. Haha. The team that consisted of everyone from different schools. I didn't even touch the frisbee. But we won. ahahahhahaha. It was fun though. :) I'm bored now. and tired. bored + tired= bired/tored.

whee.

hahahahaahha. Isn't this completely pointless. Hrm. I found something very interesting today. Do you know why we have coloured Easter eggs? You see, when Jesus was carrying the cross, Simon of Cyrene helped him. Simon, according to tradition was carrying a basket of eggs with him which he left behind to help Jesus. When he got back, he found the eggs stained with blood. Hence, coloured eggs for Easter.

Kaboomy. Random fact number 2: Yo-yos were actually weapons created by Filipino warriors. :D

Christmas is in 20 days. wow. results are coming closer. not-wow. haha. That's all for now.

AC-unit

I have a manual for my new air conditioning unit in my room. I'm so daft that I need a manual. Brilliant. Did I mention that I'm going to spend 2 hours and a half at my piano teacher's house. Life is so wonderful right now I'm dying of happiness.

If you really thought I was happy, you don't know me at all.

---

self image

I don't know how many of you "suffer" from this but I hate myself. Do any of you go through it? I'm sure you do, its a "teenage syndrome" as my dad loves to say. I hate the way I look, the way I think, the way I talk; everything. I feel like taking an eraser and rubbing out the parts that irritate me so.

Its 12.36am and I'm still up. I should be sleeping as my routine commands me to but I'm feeling stubborn. Stubborn and willful. I feel like eating but I can't. I feel like running but I can't. I feel like shouting but I won't in fear of waking everyone up. I hate this. I'll go sulk in my room then.

Good night.

(insert scream here)

stuff

I would like to take the world and give it a nice hard kick up its buttocks because I'd like to. And I'm pissed off. Why? Just because. I'm pissed off and irritated with everything so do not push the wrong buttons or I shall explode.

fdga

Auditions are this coming 8th of December. I think I'll be singing "Before your love" by Kelly Clarkson. Hopefully I'll be able to pull it off.

bleeding

oh crap. Nazrin didn't keep the kitten, the boys left it. I feel so bad. :(

---

mixed up

When you think your life's messed up, remember its a messed up world. ~SOTD of the 29th of November.

yup.

I'm officially drunk with "1973" by James Blunt. I'm replaying it over and over again. Wae was right, its such a good song. We found a random kitten at the USJ18 padang. The owner left it in a box with food and milk. The poor thing was shivering and had an infected eye. I think Nazrin took it with him. I hope he did because the sad looking feline was so scared. :/

VERDICT: Humans have a cruel streak in them and sadly some take out their "issues" on animals.
