New Goals, New Challenges, New Tactics

Fri, 03 Jan 2014 11:09:13 +0100

Goodbye to 2013. The curtains rises for a new story to be played. A new journey, a new setting, a new atmosphere, a new year. This year being the final year for me, the most important year of my 4 years in school, new challenges comes up. With the importance of study and time management, I have to survive this year. After that it'll be a relieve and then A levels. Although it may seem ridiculous and impossible target for most, I believe I'll be able to do it. Scoring As for all my subject. Both my piano grade 8 practical and theory exams are this year too. Well I guess I got to strive harder and make sure I get enough sleep too. This year would be special too, I got a partner to work together. Well, though we may have different dreams but at least we are supporting each other. The other is more patient, more forgiving, more optimistic (in some ways), more of a party animal, more of a shopper (haha, yeah I don't shop much), more calming (tries to calm someone who is panicking down), more silent (in speech but not in words), less playful (then me), even stricter in timetables(I don't follow my timetable even though I planned them), more look out for others (which I most of the time don't) and more. Well, we didn't really restrict to going to the same school in the future but we will still have the weekends free for ourselves. We'll see how this year work. Well, I'm just going to gear up and fight till the last day of exams (words from my form teacher mouth)! This year will be rough but memories will be treasured.

We can't count on others

Well another thing I learnt today. Never rely on others to help you. You have only yourself to rely sometimes. Well I was supposed to take my grade 8 exam next year March. Every piano lesson I ask my teacher whether do I need to sign up already. Her reply was always " Relax, still got a long time to go." However, the date line was 11th Oct 2013. It was my mum who notify me to check it on ABRSM website. I was totally horrified. I can't take my exam on Oct 2014, I'll be having my O Levels by then, I barely manage this year. So, how in the world am I supposed to manage it next year? I don't have a clue. The teacher gave an excuse to my mum saying it's because my rhythm isn't stable yet. Well I thought one of the person who would knew me well would understand my pain. Well, that person disappointed me. That person just thought it as a joke and did not understand the pain in my heart. When I went to my parents and told them about this. They knew my troubles they are the one who actually calm that little baby in me down.They told me this " If someone think u can't do it, well just double what u are doing now. And prove them wrong." Well I'm definitely will do that, placing more effort I guess. Pushing myself to the maximum. If I get stressed out, I'm just going to scream. Guess the final lap to the new beginning starts now.

Jealousy?

Fri, 23 Aug 2013 14:12:23 +0100

How does jealously feel like? I know he does not belong to me, but my heart aches every time he's near me. I know my restrictions well, I know my boundaries. But I'm afraid I'll cross the line. I have my rules laid out and my parents' too. Not sure how long I'll be restricted before it gets into me and I try to break free forcefully. I do not wish to see that side of me. A girl whose toy have been taken away from. All I could do everyday is to remember we are only BFFs he isn't mine. I don't want to play Othello inside of me, having more black then white pieces. Does being jealous give off a sour feel? I'm always feeling a throb in my heart. Guess I better prepare my Pandora box before the apocalypse arrive.

Accident prone >

Well, after my legs were healed after the fall. Now my right index finger is sprained. And what's worse is that it's the exam period, wish my luck. I was playing rugby during physical education. We were playing under the hot sun at the field. Just then my friend passed me the ball, but he threw too high and I couldn't see where the ball was as the sun was shinning into my eyes. I almost caught it but the force was too large and my index finger was bent and caused me to hurt my finger. Not sure what my piano teacher will say about me this Saturday. It definitely is a bad thing for a pianist for their fingers to be injured... Hope that u all will take good care of yourself >< Till the next time then!

Kneels down!

Thu, 22 Aug 2013 09:21:34 +0100

Well I fell down on Monday. My school shoes got stuck onto something and when I pull it, I lost my balance and... WOLA! I kneeled down with my right hand supporting my body. I thought it was just some minor scratch. But when I continued to walk... I felt my legs watery, when I looked down I have "2 stream of red river" I was shocked at that moment and no passersby told me about it! Urgh! I asked for a piece tissue from someone and she kinda said that I could take the whole packet as 1 isn't enough to stop the blood. She helped me to ask others for more tissue>< what a kind soul! I stammered and walked towards the information counter and asked them whether they have first aid kit or not. I felt embarrassed when I was walking as everyone was staring at me, but who cares I'm treating my injuries okay! I went to see the doctor the next day and the nurse place a sponge thingy to absorb my blood and all the random things for both knees. She told my not to unwrap it for 3 days as there is medicine on the gel on the surface of the sponge. Yesterday was the 3rd day and I went to unwrap my dressing and now... I have thin pieces of silver on my knees. And it hurt even worse. The nurse said that silver reacts with bacteria and it will kill the bacteria. Will be back to the nurse in another 3 more days. The pain still isn't subsiding..." Take care and don't fall down nor get sick guys!!

Like ≠ Love

Thu, 22 Aug 2013 09:23:44 +0100

Not sure why my friends always says that if you like someone that means you love someone. I like my friends doesn't meant that I love them right. The definition are all different too, search both words up on dictionary.com :

love

[luhv] Show IPA noun, verb, loved, lov·ing.

noun

a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person.

a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend.

sexual passion or desire.

a person toward whom love is felt; beloved person; sweetheart.

(used in direct address as a term of endearment, affection, or the like): Would you like to see a movie,love?

like

¹ [lahyk] Show IPA adjective ( Poetic ) lik·er, lik·est, preposition, adverb, conjunction,noun, verb, liked, lik·ing, interjection

adjective

of the same form, appearance, kind, character, amount, etc.: I cannot remember a like instance.

corresponding or agreeing in general or in some noticeable respect; similar; analogous: drawing,painting, and like arts.

bearing resemblance.

Dialect , likely: 'Tis like that he's gone mad.

Dialect . about: The poor chap seemed like to run away.

Proved my friend wrong. I do respect my teacher and I like the way he teaches the class but my friend took my words and created rumors of me loving my teacher and I was WTH(what the heck)?! And my English teacher came in and kind of gave them a face palm as she said " Are you all primary students? You don't even know the difference between like and love? If you like someone doesn't mean you love someone." We had a good laugh though, hope none of you have embarrassed yourself because of this two words ><

My Nov Life

Tue, 04 Dec 2012 08:26:50 +0100

I started doing part time jobs at my godmother's cafe. I worked till 10pm. It can be tiring as I have to stand the whole day but if there isn't any customers, we can sit down. I have to take orders, being a cashier and also wash the dishes. Luckily there is this invention called the dish washer otherwise I think my fingers will turn crumpled after a few days of washing. >< My grandmother came in to stay with us for the holidays. Ever since she came, my family has always been turned upside down. She expected us to give her those high class food everyday. And when once my mother just cooked 1 meat and 1 vegetable and 1 soup with rice, she grumbled that we didn't give her food to eat. So I told my mother this "We did cook her portion it is just a matter of whether she will eat or not, and it is better than starving." And when we go out she can't make up her mind on what to eat and she peaks, not look but peak at other tables or my family bowls for choices. And there will be glares shooting all at us from all directions. When we help her make a decision, she grumbles, but yet she doesn't know what to choice and ask for our opinion. What an irony. That's all about what's happening in my life. Oh and my CCA has been changed to choir since my fencing teacher told me to either give up on my 'O' level music or the CCA. And 'O' Levels meant a lot to me so I gave up of Fencing. My camp would be this 21 Dec. And I went to SM TOWN CONCERT IN SINGAPORE last week the rain total washed away my excitement. :( Never the less it was enjoyable I gain two new friends there! >< Happy early Christmas everyone!

Wet or Dry?

My classmates were having a BBQ party at one of our friends house. We were all supposed to meet at 5.40pm but somehow, everyone arrived at 5pm. We then went to one of the shopping mall to buy more food since it was drizzling. The girls were arguing about whether to buy 1 or 2 packets of marshmallows. In the end they bought two. In the end we only finished 1 packet of marshmallows and bought 3 extra pizzas. The boys were planning to push the girls down into the pool, but only 1 girl feel in, but the other two boys that pushed the girls down was dragged down. In the end except for the three "cooks" including me, the rest were soaked from head to toe. Luckily, everyone bought spare shirt and pants. The reason why didn't drag us down was because none knew how to BBQ while some were afraid of the fire and heat. And if they dragged us down, we won't cook for them and they would only have 3 pizzas to share among 30 of them. Imagine 4 person cooking for 30. I left at around 9pm since they were only playing truth or dare and the questions they asked were boring. The security guard came to warn us that if we continued making noise he will call for the police. My friend smirk and said "what is a party without noise" worse is that it was only 7.30 pm does anyone need to sleep during that time?! However we did have fun with those heat...

Finally!!

Next thursday would be my last day of school! Since my friend's birthday is coming soon, I went online to search some ideas on what gifts I could make without spending much. Just then I saw that our house kitchen roll and I wondered if I could used that. And I managed to find instructions on how to make a small and cute packaging using the kitchen?http://elizabethscraftroom.blogspot.sg/2011/04/mini-pillow-boxes.html roll. Probably going to pop in some bubble gums and chocolates. While I was browsing through the internet this gave me the idea of giving my piano teacher a cool Christmas present.http://elizabethscraftroom.blogspot.sg/2011/04/mini-pillow-boxes.html And since my parents are redecorating my house. I wonder if I could get their permission to make this http://www.homemademamas.net/2010/01/recycled-wall-art.html. If not probably this tea light ecoration http://alittlehut.blogspot.sg/2008/04/recycle-project-no-12-tealight.html
Reusing the toilet rolls ><

Which is better the old or new?

Wed, 05 Sep 2012 08:50:32 +0100

I know I haven't been active for a long time as it was exam period this maybe my last post for now probably would update it around the end of October. As we have one week of holiday, I watched some of the old Disney movies. After that at the bottom of the movie were some other Disney works and the poster of Radio Rebel caught my attention. The plot of Radio Rebel was just like saying a teenager's life. It totally make sense and actually gave me courage. Love one thing about it and that is just be yourself. Would you all prefer a the old disney movies or the new disney movies? For me old disney movies are meaningful while new disney movies are could I say more advanced in the production? Well old is good but new is also good in each way, just like how the people around you in your everyday life. The older ones are more experienced but the younger ones are more clever in more ways. That's just life, just be yourself.
