Missing out.
Saturday, March 25, 2006
Has been more than a month since I left Singapore.
Loads of stuff happened back home when I was not around, like the Sec One Orientation Camp and the Sports Day. I guess that is part of me saying 'Goodbye' to my life in Singapore. Looking at the pictures from the camp, the experiences that my friends shared with, the happiness of my juniors, I wish I could be there to share the fun and to rejoice with them.
Being part of the planning team for last year's Sec One camp was amazing. Though there were a great amount of work to be done, I enjoyed every moment of planning, managing and executing. Those two nights, planners had debreifs till about 2am, and had to wake up early to set up everything. I remember the second day of the camp last year. It was the team building day. I had six stations to patrol the whole day, making sure that everything was going accordingly to plan. After the camp, some sec 1s would just come up and talk to me, to say 'Hi'. I felt good, as I knew, in some way or other, I have made an impact on their lives.
Last year's Sports Day was great. In fact, I can say that it was the best Sports Day I had. I was really pleased to get the trophy I aimed for all my secondary school life. For every race, I ran my heart out and enjoyed the whole experience. I love my relay mates as they were there to complete the race with me, and am extremely thankful to my friends cheering on me during my race.
Encouragements mean a lot to me. Especially when it comes to running. I often find myself running a little faster when I am with someone else. When there is someone to compete, to keep up and to enjoy the run with.
During races, it feels so good to have people who cares for you, cheering loudly on the grandstand. It motivates and keeps me going.
I can't wait to get back. I miss sambal kangkong, laksa, Hainanese chicken rice, the dark carrot cake, Ba Chor Mee, Rojak, mummy's chicken porridge and soup, Kwan's cooking, the late night Bak Ku Teh, Yu Kee's duck rice and Whampoa's yummalicious calorious oyster omelettle.
Oh my god, I am salivating.
20 days more.
Adieu.

Campus life.
Monday, March 20, 2006
During long breaks, I would hang out on the lawn with my friends. The guys would perv on the girls on campus and I would just sit and enjoy the sun.
Clement and Heng Lee.
Haha, they are 18 and act like 8.
Daniel and Tony.
Daniel is VS runner. Tony is a rich Viet who spends every cent he has on Polo Ralph Lauren, Amarni, D&G, Prada... He knows a lot more designer labels than I do!
In Curtin, everyday is like a car show or fashion show. I see at least 4 Gucci bags, 2 Louis Vuitton and 1 Coach. The girls are mostly well dressed.
The student parking lots are always full. Sometimes they even park their cars on the field. Compared to other universities like UWA, the cars are a lot newer and nicer.
I need to do accounts homework.
Adieu.

When things go wrong
Tuesday, March 14, 2006
I hate it whenever my brother decides to pick up a fight with me. Especially he is suppose to be the one protecting me, it hurts so much that he decides to be mean to me over trival matters.
Yeah, things like that happens all the time. I may be overreacting, feeling PMS-y, being petty...whatever. But I really hates it when my brother acts as though I do not matter to him at all, especially when I do care a lot for him.
It kind of sucks being the only girl in the house as they tend to forget that you are a girl and tend to overlook your feelings. It sucks too, cause when things like that happens, you have got no one to cry to.

Introduction
Wednesday, March 08, 2006
These are three of the five guys I am living with now. From left, Daryl, Me, Alvin and Ken, my younger brother. (I know all of them look spastic. I just hope that I would not turn up like them.)
I have known Daryl and Alvin since forever so they are just like my brothers. But Alvin is sure one annoying asshole. And we all LOVE making fun of him as he is not exactly what we would call tall. Haha.
Daryl is just a normal ACS boy. If you know how the typical ACS boys are like, there you go.
Ken, my brother. Sometimes I think he is retarded. He has a wicked sense of humour. He would come up with all sort of smart aleck comebacks and make me feel stupid cause I tell crappy jokes. =(
The other guys are Darren, Daryl's elder brother and my guardian and Clement, a new friend. Darren, like Daryl was also another ACS boy. He is currently doing his Masters in UWA, can cook and also has a wicked sense of humour. He is so funny I think he should be a stand-up comedian.
Clement is the son of Daryl's dad's friend. He is 18 years old currently and is in taking the same course as me-Commercial Studies. So we go to school together, attend the same class, have the same friends... You get the idea.
This is my room. I know it's REALLY messy. I don't really like making my bed.
The furniture in my room are all from Ikea. I love my bedsheets and my 3 pillows.

I joined Alvin for his school, Guildford Grammar School's Annual Ball at the Sheraton Perth Hotel last thursday. Ken and Daryl were also there with their dates Amelia and Mich respectively.
From left, Me, Yulin, Amelia, Caroline, Mich.
From left, Daryl, Ken, Seb(he is shy.), Alvin and Issak.
Yulin is Issak's girl, Amelia went with Ken, Caroline went with Seb and Mich went with Daryl. We all went to the ball in a limosine. When I say limosine, I mean those you see in Hollywood movies.
I really meant the kickass limo.
Not this kind of limosines in Singapore.
See how excited Ben Lee is.
Oh anyway, I reckon Ben Lee is mad. Really. He swears like nobody's business. I can hear at least 2 'Fuck' or 'KNN', 'CCB' every minute. Honestly, I cannot stand him. He makes the hair on my back stand. He sacres the daylight out of me. There was once I heard him on the phone with his girlfriend. He told his girlfriend to bear him more kids. In my head, I went, 'WHAT IS SO WRONG WITH YOU???'
Anyway, the ball was great. It was better than my prom night in terms of the atmosphere and music, but it would be better if I had better company. The boys didn't want to dance, it was only me, Caroline and Mich. So it was not a lot of fun actually.
Ken and me.
Alvin and me.

I do not have lessons tomorrow, but will be going to take my driver theory test. I had lessons from 9 to 5 today and I am totally shagged. Going to rest.
Adieu.

I have never thought that I could miss anyone so much.
