That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me
HAPPY BIRHTDAY BRO!
Yeah i haven't been the best sister on earth but still:) hope you enjoyed yourself! well thanks alot for making me wake up at 7 in the morning just to go for the flyer. no regrets though:) spammed loads of pictures, but since the comp can't read the memory card, i guess the lovely photos will have to wait:( went for luch at suntec's subway, then went homed on the mrt. after that, he went with sean to watch planet 51. all the time there was this irritating person.
side note: i believe the name planet 51 was derived from area 51.
secretive?
Area 51 Security and Secrecy
To say access to the base is limited is an understatement. The base and its activities are highly classified. The remote location helps keep the activities figuratively under the radar, as does the proximity to the NTS. After several land seizures, the base is surrounded by thousands of acres of empty desert landscape. The Air Force has withdrawn lands from public use to help keep the base hidden from snooping eyes. For many years, observers could hike to elevated vantage points like White Sides Peak or Freedom Ridge, but the Air Force seized those lands as well. Today, the only way you'll catch a glimpse of the base in person (assuming you aren't working there) is to take the strenuous hike to the top of Tikaboo Peak, which is 26 miles from the facility.
For many years, mapmakers wouldn't include the facility on any maps. It fell within the borders of Nellis Air Force Range, but the road leading to the facility was never shown. Today, the location of the base is general knowledge, but for many years officials went to great lengths to obscure its location.

Everyone who works at Area 51, whether military or civilian, must sign an oath agreeing to keep everything a secret. Buildings at the site lack windows, preventing people from seeing anything not related to their own duties at the base. By some reports, different teams would work on similar projects at the same time, but their supervisors would keep each team ignorant of the other team's project. When testing a secret aircraft, officials ordered all uninvolved employees to stay inside until the test flight was over and the aircraft returned to its hangar.
http://science.howstuffworks.com/area-512.htm go check it out. it's so interesting. i was hooked for hours:)
Meanwhile i was at mac with yanting doing hoilday homework. gahh. yeah we're obedient students. :) after that i had to accomapny him to school for the briefing. a complete waste of time, i fll asleep halfway while the person was talking. remind me again why i am his keeper.
homed after the talk ended, then i continued with the envelops. writing the owner 8765432432456789 times is no joke. well, i get paid so i can't very well complain. humph. finished everything at 12.30am:) yay! one down, holiday homework to go:)

Haha isn't this proof that harry potter beats the twilight saga hands down? :)
"The other day in English class, nobody could remember what the word imperious meant. I quickly raised me hand and explained to the class that it was just like in Harry Potter how the imperious curse controlled people, and therefor the word meant controlling. My teacher then informed us that's just one more way Harry Potter is going to help us in life, and we should all read it. MLIA."
This too:
"Today, I was at the movie theater watching New Moon. When Bella told Jacob she loved him, the old man behind me yelled "YOU TWO-TIMER!" MLIA."

I dreamed a dream
I had this weird dream, in which i had a pair of twin baby sisters, one younger brother and sister. in the dream, my parents were (shockingly) on agreeable terms with each other. the sad thing was that they were trying to kill us. all the children. my dad threw the babies into a canal (which looks scarily like the drain outside nanhua) -.- and then my dad tried to burn me. haha not funny. but we escaped. halfway through, my mum went mia, leaving my dad being the sole murderer. i was the one who got everything together and ran away with my bro and sis, but the twins died. then i woke up-.-
conclusion: my parent tried to kill me. wait. correction. my dad tried to kill me. hmm what if it comes true? except for the extra siblings part. one is enough.

Water and the power of me:D
drat. If you get to read this post, it means that i wasn't too lazy to type everything out. gah, i'm getting lazier and lazier. okay. i decided i shall be nice:)
(mind you i took 3 days to post this so you better read it:D)
DANCE CHALET!!
woke up at 8 on sunday morning, left for aha at pa at 12 plus. bought 1.5 litre drinks at lot1, for the bbq. met sining, misa at lavender. saw terence, the guys and crescent people at security. we missed warmups to do aha, laoshi also commented on our item. after that, we did chingay (the flag). i hope that there wouldn't be strong winds during the parade, or else it will be very difficult to handle the flag.
bathed and left for chalet with sining, misa, pearlynn, terence, jb, brandon, yuren, kevin, solo, grads and some others whom i forgot:x chalet location changed form aloha loyang to aloha changi, it was last minute. cabbed there cause it was already very late, if I'm not wrong, by the time we left it was 7+. oh btw we bathed at pa:) haha heard that there was only one pathetic toilet at chalet with so many people to share with. smart us:D
took us half an hour to reach, by then the bbq was already in full swing. before we got off the cab, the taxi driver had to tell a murder story. -.- okay it wasn't scary but whatever. and pearlynn said there were loads of transvestites in changi-.-
there were four rooms, sec1s, sec2s, sec3s, and grads. went down to the bbq pit. some were playing cards, some watching tv, others just hanging around eating. mainly, i ate marshmallows:D and a few crabsticks. oh yes, there was red wine! btw coke mixed with red wine tastes better than just coke:) brainwave by me:) then brandon decided to copy me, except he put h2o apple instead. taste was o.0. after the red wine, there was ice cream liquor but i don't like the taste of it, it's like smelling milk/ice cream, and drinking something that burns as it runs down my throat. mingled around, etcetc. then it was time to clear up. haha the power of dance:) 5 minutes and everything was done:)
after that we went in to play cards, blackjack etc. played all the way until 3 am. meanwhile, people started going to bath, and amanda, jinglin and gang went upstairs to paint their nails. haha they even helped the guys to paint (jingkai, yuren, lionel, terence etc) end result was damn gay:D no sure if there are pictures, but you can check it out on fb and the blogs. as for me, i'm just too lazy to upload them here:)
at three plus, we went out to the coffeeshop with the girls, jingkai, jian hao, solo, for food and coffee:) saw scary people-.- okay, i know i shouldn't be mean, but, seriously, tall and broad shoulders and all...
after that, we went to watch the sunrise. we were facing the wrong direction-.- we waited for quite some time, but the sky showed no signs of changing colour, so we decided to dance. halfway through, someone shouted at us. o.o we didn't know that people were staying at the sailing club just behind us. next, it started raining. hmm and we were facing the wrong direction anyway-.- rested under the shelter for awhile, then decided to go back to chalet.
it was 7+ in the morning, we were innocently sitting at the table, and that was when the horror started:D
daryl: 'want to play blackjack?'
us: 'okay. anything'
daryl: 'okay, we bet water'
die. i tell you drinking 10+ cups of water in two hours, with only one toilet break is no joke. death warning! nah, not that bad. haha at first daryl said only one toilet break. he was the dealer. after awhile, he changed the rules to two toilet breaks, cos he couldn't take it anymore:D the worst part was the aftermath. everyone was rushing to the toilet. the best part? i was last in line. but that's not the point. the point is... never mind.
after that, jinglin they all went out for breakfast, the sec3s went to www, xuanlin and her 'clique' went cycling, leaving yingpei, kelly, yanting and me to rest. (Our breakfast was water-.-)
wanted to rest, but just when i was about to fall asleep, someone woke me up. not once, not twice, but three times!! and they were all different people. after the third unsuccessful time trying to sleep, i gave up. went for lunch at ehub. met up with the rest of the people, lunched and went to the arcade. jingkai hurt his hand playing daytona. still want to shl about dota.
(all this time we were still suffering form the side effects of the water)
went back to chalet after that, --memory laspe-- oh yes, we played cards:D and then packed up and left. went for dinner at aloha changi before leaving, though. bused to tampiness interchange, took 67 home with yanting and yingpei. one interchange to another:D one and a half hours, but it means more time to sleep:D AFTER 46 HOURS OF NOT SLEEPING:D
Batch outing!!
the power of ME:D
went out with odelia before the bbq to jp for some shopping:D thought i would be late, but ended up meeting yanting, jingwen, valerie all the same:D
bused to wcp, i carried the fried rice:) set up the fire, or rather, tried to, but epic fail. haha took damn long but at last, we managed!!:D but the fire wasn't heated up enough, pus there were a few born firefighters out there, so it took al long time to cook. well. there was still food. that's the point:D hoho and yes, that's where the power of me comes in. i open all the packets and stuff. i am the scissors. it startd raining, and we packed up. then the rain stopped:X oh well. went to the pyramid, sat there and talked for awhile then homed in yingpei's car:D
the end of my fab post:D i know it's long awaited, and nobody will actually read the whole thng, but who cares? :D
I HEREBY DECLARE MY LOVE FOR NHDS BATCH 95:D

Sticks and stones can't break my bones but words can break my heart
Another month and it would be half year. the importance of AYG to some people dawn on me, not suddenly, rather, i kind of suspected it all along, just that confirmation has been quite recent. therefore, it's not really surprising. ignorance fades with time. who was i trying to kid?
I've learnt so much. but sometimes, i'd rather stay in the dark. but, well, there isn't a delete/erase/clear memory button attached to the brain. yeah. just me, me and my stupid ignorant self.
/. On to Open House
can't say it was great, perfect, or anything. can't say we owned the school. no offense, but the feeling's different. or maybe it was there, just that i couldn't feel it. maybe practice wasn't enough.
still a good job done though:D * round of applause
last year, it started raining halfway when we were dancing. this year, the drizzle stopped before we went out. last year i felt the spirit, the high-ness, the strength, the togetherness, the unity.
the first performance was total crap for me. brainfreezed halfway through AYG and guo tou for the liu xing failed. the worst part was the ending pose. deja vu of the rehearsal. :( fan-ed over and flipped to the side again. ow. worst thing, though, wasn't the pain or anything. the worst thing was the indescribable feeling when you know you've screwed up. and I'm sharing centre with kelly. double attack. screwed center. just great.
luckily, the second performance went better:)
afterwards, amanda, jinglin, jingwen, yanting, ying, valerie, and i went to lot 1:) fun time there cracking lame jokes and racist ones too. ooops.
/.
PA later, then off to chalet:) next dance practice is on 28 december. long period of (unwanted) rest:( gonna miss dance, but i'll have to start on my pile of homework which is an extreme eye irritant on the table.

Freakin' Paranoid~
PLEASE DON'T LET ME SCREW TOMORROW. I'M NOT GOING TO FORGIVE MYSELF IF TOMORROW'S PERFORMANCE IS RUINED THANKS TO ME. DAMMIT/ argh gui4 fan1!!!Thursday, November 26, 2009, 1:15 AM
If i see you next to never, how can we say forever?
Please don't ask me how i feel. i have no idea myself. how should i feel? how am i supposed to feel?can you forget how to feel? i think i did, no matter how stupid or weird this might seem. i know, i haven't been one hell of a normal, sane person in the first place. now, its like I'm losing touch with this world. help. I'm mad. everything is bothering me. pissing me off, irritating the hell out of me, etc. what the hell have become of me? i don't know who i am anymore. dance provides only temporary relief. after that? i suppose i'll just have to grab at the strings in the dark then. find the light. if there is one, of course. i don't believe in anything anymore.
/. ouch my back and elbows hurt. am i going to screw again?
Slow me down - Emmy Rossum
Rushing and racing and running in circles
Moving so fast I'm forgetting my purpose
Blur of the traffic is sending me spinning
Getting nowhere
My head and my heart are colliding chaotic
Pace of the world I just wish I could stop it
Try to appear like I've got it together
I'm falling apart
Save me
Somebody take my hand and lead me
Slow me down
Don't let love pass me by
Just show me how
Cause I'm ready to fall
Slow me down
Don't let me live a lie
Before my life flies by
I need you to slow me down
Sometimes I fear that I might disappear
In the blur of fast forward I falter again
Forgetting to breathe
I need to sleep
I'm getting nowhere
All that I've missed I see in the reflection
Pass me while I wasn't paying attention
Tired of rushing, racing and running
I'm falling apart
Tell me
Oh won't you take my hand and lead me
Slow me down
Don't let love pass me by
Just show me how
Cause I'm ready to fall
Slow me down
Don't let me live a lie
Before my life flies by
I need you to slow me down
Just show me
I need you to slow me down
Slow me down
Slow me down
The noise of the world is getting me caught up
Chasing the clock and I wish I could stop it
Just need to breathe
Somebody please
Slow me down
Moving so fast I'm forgetting my purpose
Blur of the traffic is sending me spinning
Getting nowhere
My head and my heart are colliding chaotic
Pace of the world I just wish I could stop it
Try to appear like I've got it together
I'm falling apart
Save me
Somebody take my hand and lead me
Slow me down
Don't let love pass me by
Just show me how
Cause I'm ready to fall
Slow me down
Don't let me live a lie
Before my life flies by
I need you to slow me down
Sometimes I fear that I might disappear
In the blur of fast forward I falter again
Forgetting to breathe
I need to sleep
I'm getting nowhere
All that I've missed I see in the reflection
Pass me while I wasn't paying attention
Tired of rushing, racing and running
I'm falling apart
Tell me
Oh won't you take my hand and lead me
Slow me down
Don't let love pass me by
Just show me how
Cause I'm ready to fall
Slow me down
Don't let me live a lie
Before my life flies by
I need you to slow me down
Just show me
I need you to slow me down
Slow me down
Slow me down
The noise of the world is getting me caught up
Chasing the clock and I wish I could stop it
Just need to breathe
Somebody please
Slow me down
