A start of a NEW life.

Let's rock n' rolla babeh!!

What a relieve, I'm finally done with SPM!!! Oh yeah man!!! I'm just overly excited and over the moon now. I've been waiting for this day ever since the beginning of this year. What a torture...

So now...what's next on the road for me?

-Exactly 1 month of well-deserved holiday
-NS for 3 months ( i got first batch)
-Then??
-Work? and do form6 / college?? (well..duh..) :|

I think I'd prefer to do A levels. Why?
I'd like to do Sociology. Just to learn the basics. And maybe a bit of psychology. And A levels offer that. (only in Taylor's, I think.)
Then, I'd like to do a degree in Geography. The subject itself is a bit general though but I really like the subject. Then I'd probably major in one of those fields and probably do a Masters and PhD?
Come to think of the current circumstances, I might actually do something involving the environment. Environmental science?
One thing's for sure, I like Earth Science. A very big field indeed. So for now, that's what I foresee I'll be doing for my future.

Nonetheless, my dad wants me to do form6. Since he did the same thing too. But I don't think I can endure another 18months of pure science and the whole lot of MUETs and the other petty tests. Another thing is I don't want to be doing Geography in BM!! no way man. No more BM for me please... =| No doubt A levels wont be that easy. But I think I can survive. So currently I've got about two options now.

Faith.
Fear.
False hope.

We battle for a power that cannot be noticed. Why?

So much for letting it all out...

No matter how much I try,
I end up shriveling up and backing out
What the heck is wrong with me??
What happened to standing up and protecting what's right?

Do I not trust anybody in this world anymore??
So much for letting it all out...

NS here I come

This was so unexpected. Though, I kinda have a mix feeling about it at the moment. It's a 3 months camp in a place you've never been. I can barely imagine how the living conditions would be like (the food, the toilets, the bed, etc... ) Nevertheless, I'm looking forward to it. New friends and new experiences. Hopefully I get the first batch.

Olympic Fever

Great..now the song "We Are Ready" is stuck in my head. I'm so not ready for TRAILS!

Luckily my mum got through the phone and manage to subscribe the Astro Sports channels. The line was so busy. I guess everyone was doing what we were doing too, last minute subscriptions. To watch the OLYMPICS of course! I've been bugging her to subscribe the channels since a month ago and finally my efforts are justified. *ahh...*

I practically missed the WHOLE of Euro Cup 2008! Can you believe it?? I even missed the final match! I didn't even get to watch any of the matches. Firstly because I wasn't allowed to stay up on weekdays and also we didn't have the sports channels. So I couldn't catch the replays as well. *sigh*

Anyways...the countdown is finally reaching its end.

8.00pm 8.08.08

I wonder whether they will wait for another 8mins and 8 seconds. LOL then it'll be all eights and zeros. LOL

Boring you say? I just love the forest!

Came to school approximately 2mins before the school bell rang. Rushed to the kuliah bakti to sit for the UNSW English paper. I tell you, it was super-duperly difficult! Won't be surprised if I flung the paper. But hopefully NOT. Anyways, I handed in my paper 5mins before time was up. Then had to rush again, this time to the bus. We were going on a trip to FRIM. yay!

When we arrived at the place, everyone started spraying mosquito repellents on their hands and legs. Tarsha who said these repellents were "bad" for the environment started spraying on herself more than I did. Everyone came well prepared. We even brought salt just in case leeches come sucking our blood. Me however, wanted leeches to drink my blood.LOL. I've never been bitten by any of them before. So just for an experience, I don't mind. LOL. But sadly, there weren't any leeches. No one got bitten either. I guess from the pungent smell of the repellents around us had it scared off all the unwanted pest. Even the monkeys and wild boars which I was looking forward to meet!

The elephant!

The only animal I saw in the forest

We had a tour guide with us leading the way. We jungle-tracked our way into the forest while I was clicking away with my camera. Unfortunately, a camera can only take a stationary form of the forest and only a small part of it. You can actually feel the forest being alive when you're in it. Even though the part of the forest where we walked was a man-made forest, (man-made forest here I don't mean fake trees and animals, ya) the atmosphere was just as pleasant.

Man-made rain forest

My phobia was tested to its limits when we walked on the canopy. My hands turned so cold even Pn Hamimah and Shin were aghast. Already when I'm afraid of walking on drain grills (those grills which are used to cover the drain la) what's more walking on those planks that CREAKS! Besides the horror of hanging high up above the ground, the scenery was pretty from up there.

WHoA!
(This was the last part of the canopy walk when I was brave enough to take out my camera)

Everyone was excited to see the waterfall because we were going to have our picnic there and then go play with the water. But the tour guide told us, before we reached, not to expect anything fancy about it as the waterfall was not really an attraction. True enough the waterfall was a very small one and had a man-made pond at the end of the stream which was where we played and swam. I didn't swim though, played in the cold water as high up my knees only.

The unexpected waterfall

OK WUNNIE!!

You want me to blog about you eh? So here you are:

Let's see... Wun aka Wunnie, is my best friend. How did we know each other? err...I can't remember. LOL. It was since primary school I knew him actually. He's very supportive especially to all his friends. A cheeky fella and can be very talkative at times. But one things for sure, he's very camera shy. Until now I've never had a picture taken with him. (apa la u...) LOL. but that's why he's my best friend. Always there for me. Thanks dear! :)

PS: I would have put a pic of him here but i know he's gonna scream 'til all the windows in the world cracks and bugg me till i get it off... so no pic (even if it's only him in the pic) LOL! and his favourite line would be "it'll only destroy your blog(in this case) with that pic there! Get that freaking boy's pic out of there! eeeww!!" LOL. ok, i'm exaggerating a bit here but that's what he'll do. ;)

Our last performance...

So this is it. The form 5's last performance in the orchestra, played at the Musical Nite 2008. I don't know how I'm suppose to feel right now. Sad because it's the last? or happy because it's all over. Probably a mix of everything.LOL. I'm so used to perform for these kind of events, now that I feel like it's just another day with a performance in schedule. What can I say, I've been in this group ever since they introduced it again when I was in Form 2. Yes, Again. Many years ago, the school had an orchestra group. Then, I don't know what happened to it. Have to go ask the teachers... ;)

Anyways, we were all given a treat today, McD for dinner! Yay! Then, we all started getting ready. As usual, we will take extra long time getting ready; putting make-ups, tidying-up hairs, checking and double checking and rechecking how we all looked. I guess it's the nervousness feeling everyone was having which is very normal, even for the conductor, Mr R. Saw him all by himself at the pondok, in the dark playing a very emotic song on the violin.LOL. For me, I was trying to play a song or two on su ann's violin. Not because I was nervous but because almost everyone in the kuliah bakti was playing Canon in D. So, I decided to join in. And guess what, I dint know I have such talents! haha! Since i sucked at it so badly(LOL) I decided to play the Titanic theme song. I started teaching su ann how to play the song and before i know it, she was already playing the whole chorus which was so much better than me! O.o

Anyhow, this time we dint have to tie our hair in buns. *phew* We were so worried that Pn S would force us to tie buns again that during the practice before Pn P and Pn S came, we told Mr R to tell the teachers that we'll look horrid and all the crap we mentioned if we tie buns (just for an excuse). But he said he'll lose the case if he was to defend us because according to him, if the teachers ever ask him what does he knows of girls tying buns, beauty and what not, he wouldn't be able to answer! What's more the form 1s came ready with their hair in buns during the practice itself and we were worried again that it'll be a give away to the teachers. Luckily, they let us off this time even though i think they were a bit unhappy.

Merissa freaked out when I told her that she had left her guitar on the stage while the audience was already in the hall. And we weren't able to go in because we had our costumes on already. But we manage to get it after that. Not only that, when we were already lining up outside the hall waiting for our turn to go in, and there was Merissa still watching the performance while we were all ready with our instruments. This time she left her guitar in the kuliah bakti. I guessed it wasn't a day for her and her guitar. LOL

There were some technical errors with the sound system when the group before us was performing their dance. They had to repeat their dance a couple of times which only made us even more nervous. Then, it was finally our turn. Played our songs; Phantom of the Opera, Think of Me, Sempurna and Heal the World. All the guitarists have to admit that they didn't know how to play POTO. That includes me too. It was messy all over, strokes and everything but i doubt anyone noticed them because firstly we couldn't really be heard and we were mostly blocked from the view of the audience by the stands. Anyways, we had a duet with the choir. They sang Think of Me while we played the song. I was actually impressed they did the last part really well.(you know what i mean if you've been there) *a standing ovation*

After everything was over, everyone started packing and went back. My parents helped me gathered my stuffs and we made our way back home. Only after when i was back in my room, i noticed that I've forgotten about something really important. MY PHONE! Oh Nooo!! HOW CAN I FORGET ABOUT MY PHONE!?!? Dang it! What's more, Pn P is gonna have my phone for the weekend! greeaatt... -.-

me signing out now... good nights...

Newbie coming to town!

This Blog has been kept silence for too many months. It's time to bring it back to life now! All the layout and colours in this page has been carefully chosen. (I'm very fussy about these little details. I can't help it!)
So this is SORTA my first time blogging. After deleting my first post earlier this year, since Sab said she couldn't understand a thing i was talking about. *sigh* Am I that bad? I guess we'll just have to see how this goes.

I have another problem. Whenever I'm signed in into this blog, I forget what i want to write.
(Shin, finally A post! LOL! *phew*)

I'm suppose to be going to bed already. I've to get up early tomorrow(which is 10am. considered early for a Saturday morning LOL) I have no transport to school for the practice tomorrow. But luckily Yen Li is able to fetch me.(thanks, yen li) I seriously want to get a driving license la. So much more convenient for me and my parents! Anyways, I'm performing for the Musical Nite later this evening, together with the orchestra team, of course. I seriously hope it'll turn out well. Imagine learning up 3 new songs in a week! But of course, we usually make it through at the very last minute. LOL. And it has always been that way since the beginning.

OH NO! I almost forgot. We're gonna wear our new orchestra uniform again! Everyone wanted to replace our old Ninjaturtle uniform. By the name of it, I think you've guessed why. Everyone wanted something better, obviously! Well gals, SORRY to let you all down! I have to admit that it looks worst that the previous one. Even a little girl has a better taste. But seriously, it's very difficult to design a uniform for a function like this. What didn't help was that we (me & atheera) didn't have enough time to come up with a design. Tried asking for help, we ended up having responses like "whatever you decide on, we'll surely agree with you." (Ya, right!) But I've gotta give credit to su ann for trying. (thanks, hun!)

Ok. I've gotta stop here now. or I'll be in trouble tomorrow!

Good Luck, mates! We can DO IT! :)
