AN EXCESS OF ENERGY. [17 August 2008]
[ mood | ill ]
[ music | C-Lebrity - Queen & Paul Rodgers ]


i suck. last week i staggered through the major half of my prelims dizzy from a fever that skyrocketed to 39 degrees...and even while managing that nuclear war within my brain, my eyes were glued to the television instead of sprawling over my notes and prepatory drawings, or at least sleeping/resting. but it's the olympics! dad once said a long time ago that he would take me to watch the olympic games when i'm old enough (ie. 16+). i guess that's a promise by him that will remain unfulfilled forever... nevertheless! i will watch the gymnastics discipline one day, and winter olympics too, ice skating!!!

kai's sports updates! table tennis semi-finals on friday was so intense, kudos to fang tian wei's drives, her initials are great: FTW! (haha wenjun's brilliant observation) lost to china in the finals, but it's already fantastc that we're getting an olympic medal, silver, at least! bolt is insane, waving while running the last 10m of the 100m finals, what a god. and trampoline was so awesome i love he wenna! perfect. all my artistic gymnastics' predictions have been accurate thus far save for women's individual vault, some unknown north korean girl beat oksana! and AA-individual gold, i didn't expect nastia liukin to win, but i guess she's waited so long for this! chinese gymnastics is back in full force after a decade of poor form; their teams are unstoppable, i am so glad both men's and women's snapped up the team gold! all of their routines are now so solid <3 russia is somehow dreadfully weak this year though, i didn't expect that. one thing i'm really dissatisfied with, is the new gymnastics judging system. they took the artistry score out, so few bother about the aesthetics involved in a routine anymore ): have you noticed the floor exercise is getting duller? hardly any of the gymnasts now exude that charisma the gym legends had. makes me want to watch my stash of old gym videos! eek i love gymnastics xinifity even though it has taken me to the bottoms of hell, it's still the sport.

ANYWAY. out of several life-changing + agonizing events that occurred recently, i must relate this one: i finally decided to make an appearance at a hair salon to trim my fringe and the back, but essentially keeping the same hairstyle that i had for 3 years. HOWEVER, when i sat down, the first thing the hairdresser did was CHOP MY FRINGE OFF. I. NOW. HAVE BANGS. THE HORROR ARGH I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE, I NEVER WANTED TO HAVE BANGS EVER. i threw a huge fit and thus to pacify me, the compromise was to give me a slanted fringe (not helping), charging me only half the price BUT THAT'S STILL $35 AND THE BANGS ARE STILL THERE (though slanted now) i am utterly traumatized I DID NOT ASK FOR BANGS. i am not used to looking at myself in the mirror, and everyone says i look like a japanese kid, my quest for attaining fierce-ness has failed. </3

DREAMS WERE MADE TO BURN. [4 August 2008]
[ mood | okay ]
[ music | Starlight - Muse ]




prelims are leering in my face and positively threatening to have me incinerated, but headbanger wild child kapow the weekend away at SingFest! braving the sun plus the crowd was ghastly, but still fun. due to my lack of height, i had to be propped up a lot to get a good view (?beer keg?) ...i fail at life. before heading to fort canning though, we continued with the on-going Feed The Kai quest: yummy chow at prinsep street's Absolute Haven was in order and later, overpriced heinekens at the festival. my bottoms will stop dropping off my hips again!!! i hate having to constantly pull them up :@ it wasn't a wish-list line-up, but it's nice that bigger acts are actually coming to singapore...we're such deprived souls. panic was so bad though, so i just sat and absorbed some literature notes during their gig...oh onerepublic far exceeded my expectations, they are so much better live! rick astley is The Mambo King and lol it was quite something watching the pussycatdolls gyrating their hips like they do in their music videos. but the best was really jason mraz, alicia keys got no soul compared to him yo!!!

<3 )

1st July: a quiet 18th, since i neglected to even remember it myself until five days ago - and only after a reminder from a very appalled serene. i should be shot for drowning in my own schedule and getting distraught over life. gifts and well-wishes of sorts aside, what really, truly mattered was all the shower of love. whatever that was done, be it small or big, i appreciate it. the birthday week's been a heart-stopping rollercoaster, it was lovely, it was cruel. in these miserable times, support and being there is all that matters to me. so thank you; especially ning, serene, tommy and gerald.

i never needed you more.

[ mood | drained ]
[ music | Hey Jude - The Beatles ]


yesterday i spent my day at internship, then the entire evening to morning with tommy. i'm glad i met you at that havoc of a yacht party back in 2006. you've been more than anything i've ever asked for, and thanks for that. i need to sort issues and riddles out; my head is about to detonate. there's only a week left til school reopens - i've been overworking, scuttling along, and yet i've done nothing. i'm guilty of being part of the sub-species of humans who constantly run in circles. there's everything and nothing to my name. i have completely lost direction, and i don't know how else to continue. anyway...

DEAR MY FRIENDS FOLLOW SEPHY! [12 June 2008]
[ mood | :3 ]
[ music | Staying Alive - Bee Gees ]




i got off early from internship today! it's been pretty interesting (styling!) but the day always starts off boring. today i spent the morning resizing some china pictures on my laptop - so here are er a select 1/15th of the pictures i took! this could potentially cause your internet browser to hang though.
i regret not taking my fisheye lens along ): anyway fellow China Clan homiez, i'll burn all the photos i have (after deleting the really grainy/icky ones) into CDs because the originals are HUGE and too many...and i don't think you want your processor to stall if i sent them to you via MSN or email.

\o/ WINZ. [30 May 2008]
[ mood | buh! ]

I FINALLY LOST A HANDPHONE YESTERDAY, WHAT A MILESTONE AND WHAT TIMING!! i'm so annoyed at myself UGH but looking at it positively, i just revived one of my spare phones and got my sim card replaced so TEXT ME NOWZ WITH YOUR NAME SO I CAN SAVE YOUR NUMBER AGAIN!

so it's been almost two months of horrendous humidity. tonight we had dinner in celebration of errol's excitable 18th, his mum cooks great food. the rest are still frolicking at his crib while i have come home to post because i've accumulated a number of snapshots this May plus i'm flying in approximately 6 hours for the school's Economics Trip to Chairman Mao's Motherland! as always, i haven't packed yet, oops. these days i really wish i rocked at speaking mandarin zzz. China's taken a huge beating lately, screw you sharon stone and other ignorant people!! anyway life = burn-out and the holidays are set to be clogged up as well. i spent my last week of school with glass splinters embedded in my fingers...in other words, literally bleeding art. when i return i will have a whole load of things to juggle - Club21 internship, PAYM's Lady of The Golden Years Pageant gown designing, photographing for Worldvision Camp and the biggest menace: art. art is an absolute torture whenever you're doing something you have nearly zero interest in, sigh i shouldn't start ranting because i'll never end...

no time to catch my breath. what a way to spend the last school break before the motor driving life forward to A-Levels revvs up. i could've used the time to indulge with friends and have personal lazy-time but i suppose i'm enriching myself with all that's coming my way! +++OVERDUE PICHURZ )

COME IN AND PLAY. [8 April 2008]
[ mood | crappy ]
[ music | All At Once - The Fray ]





last week: 1) funOrama: 14 Emily Hill. i think AA1 and AD4 made a fantastic combination!!! earned tins and tins of $$$$$, won best Haunted House and our queue was the sexiest ever, it snaked into the lobby. clogging up the corridor equated to B.O though. 2) post-funOrama hangover, gave KT Tunstall's concert a miss but dragged self out for Tan Yoong's runway show at SFF. 3) major upheaval within arts council zzz but still. 4) post-funOrama party, yay! 5) the crematorium for some filial piety.

the weekend was a frenzied mess. friday was alldressedup's runway show. later at 2AM, gerald picked me up and headed over to leann's place for Amelie and drinks. saturday morning saw me falling off the bed - and landing on eliza whose scream woke everyone else up. gerald drove me to Holland Village so i could meet ning for lunch@Coffee Club. met zhijie before going home to unpleasantness, sigh i do not understand why. went on strike for a bit before fleeing with ning for chu's birthday party@Loof, and then we hit Butterfactory. sunday was absolutely disastrous save for Calvin Klein's show and the purchase of a dress after, tea@Canele with shane and a bit of brightening up done by nicky and jing respectively.

this week so far: 1) theatre 2) sushi 3) step-up 2 4) i gave GYLC's offer a miss, i don't know if i made the wrong choice or not 5) i'm nursing a really bad fever now, it's been a while since i've been this sick...39.6 degrees, wowz. in short, life has been terribly uncontrollable and ridiculous of late, get lost!
