Chinatown #2


There's a new furniture set and dining table that were settled in my house on Thursday. I think my house could be the second Chinatown/China museum. Really. Even my Australian-ized sister says so.


I had fever during Math 2 on Tuesday. I was freezing cold. The papers were a blur to me. I didn't know what I was doing for Math 1. Went to school around 9.20 a.m. on Wednesday and saw a bunch of people + patriotic songs + form 4 students + teachers + flags + flags + flags as I find my way through the crowd. Only had Geography paper on that day. I brought 2 packets of tissue from home, bought 2 packets of tissue from school's bookshop and nearly finished it all by the end of school.

Me : Amir, is this packet of tissue cute?
Amir : Yeah.
Me : How about this green one?
Amir : Even cuter.
Me : How about this? *points to ownself*
Amir : Cutest.

xD JOKER~!

Running nose was like a running tap water.

A visit to the hospital

But I'm fooling myself
I'm fooling myself
Cause you say you love me
And then you do it again, you do it again
You say your sorry's
And then you do it again, you do it again


Went to visit my 7-year-old niece, Sheyenne in DSH in the morning cause she burnt herself. The right part of her body. It was really really bad. But she's okay. The way she spoke was so so so so so adorable and slow! It's like a baby learning to walk. You get the idea. She was really shy when she was younger. Ahhh. I'm her aunt. x( And her dad's my cousin. Oldest cousin. And I'm the youngest cousin. On my dad's side. 21 years difference yo!

I can't seem to choose a new specs frame. Frus!

The phrase

Eugene said this on his birthday - 

DON'T HATE ME CAUSE YA AIN'T ME!

No Rempits

Remember I said my class had to switch classes with 4 Kempas and I was sitting at the corner? [ Refer to previous, previous post ]. Well, they pasted the list of things that can't be brought to school. There was the food part and some joker added something in pencil, I think he/she did it during exam. He/She wrote d) makanan basi. There was the clothings part and there was one which wrote "pelbagai jenis topi", so that joker added "pelbagai jenis topi - keledar ---> NO REMPITS".

-.-'

Run.

[ Feeling strangely fine ]

The tikar thingy they've pasted on our tables, are like the wooden floor of your bedroom. Light brown though. Eeeks. I was yawning til I teared during the trial papers. While doing Part A of BM, only the FIRST part, I've already almost fell asleep. Same goes for English.

Did you know that the word TADIKA came from the word Taman Didikan Kanak-kanak?

Did you know that the word PAWGAM came from the word Panggung Wayang Gambar?

Did you know that the word ABC came from the word Air Batu Campur?

BM - Akronim. Hehe.

Headstrong, I'll take you on!

Yes, that's me in the above photo =D Meet the Chen's.

My class had to switch classes with 4 Kempas for the day cause our tables needed some wrapping in order to keep it clean for PMR students [ us ]. The class was seriously small. The distance between our tables were 0.0298356471 cm. Exaggerating. Anyway, it was just half an arm away. Talk about sitting between Amir [ the tall prefect ] and having Dev sitting on my right. Dev was supposed to sit right at the back of row 2 but noooo, after Tuesday's incident.


Before KH's paper, we wanted to change places so it would be easier for the PK and KT students. It was Puan Tan GT's period. So she asked us..

Puan Tan : Who wants to change place?
Me : Hands up! Hands up!
Cher Haow : *sings GC's Dance Floor Anthem* Everybody! Put up your hands and say I don't wanna be in love, I don't wanna be in love!
Me : I don't wanna be in love!
Others : HahaHAHAhAhAHaHahaha. *hands up*


Amir did his gay hair flip thingy again. The guys were making the rempit sound - the kissy kissy sound. Commotion happened before KH paper, Mr D and Ms Z kinda fought. Scaryy.


It wasn't really disturbing during the paper because I asked Amir to look to the left [ out the door ] and Dev to look to the right. Amir just wouldn't listen. Every exam, he'll start shaking his legs, look around, and hum. I'd look at him and he'd do the quiet sign and stop. Joker.


shortandsexy? How I wish I knew..

All The Small Things

PEEK - A - BOO !

I've 1 chapter of History notes to do which I have to pass up tomorrow. Wish me luck. My class is rotten. Haha. I just sneezed right after typing that. Shouldn't have wrote that. I take back my words back.

Holidays are meant to be spent by doing things like getting enough of rest, chatting til early hours of the morning, sleeping, eating, sleeping, playing, sleeping, going out, sleeping, studying, sleeping.. You get my point. SLEEPING IS SO GOOD, YOU CAN EVEN.. er.. sleep.. umm. Yeah.

Don't waste your time on me
You're already the voice inside my head

Ling ling ling ling ling!

Sleepyhead!

Yih Ling knows the feeling of being a tenggiling that goes around killing. Bodies are piling and she is smiling. She needs to take some pills and go chilling. Or the end of the world will hit the ceiling. OMG IT'S YIH LING. - Khai.

You're one lame person, dude.

"Jerry, where's your flying broom?" - students of 3 Kenanga.

"Yalah, JERRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF COOLNESS!! *takes broom* I'm on my broom!" - said by the man himself.

We played the hand game where you draw over your hand on a piece of paper during MM. So Cathryn, Jia Linq, Yee Hua and I played. Out of the 4, I had the best life. There was only one bad thing in my life in the game. The first column was for boyfriend/husband. We didn't write the name but the characteristics like sexy/cute/etc. There were 5 options. Of course, there were bad options too. Jia Linq said, for the second column, make it more interesting, she said put the place where you make out. -.-' ROTTEN! Third column was Occupation. Fourth column was the ride your boyfriend/husband owns. Fifth column was your kid's attitude. The one bad thing in my life in the game was my kid's attitude. I was rich in the game! =D Yee Hua's life was the most rotten one. There was only 1 good thing - her ride was a Lamborghini. Cathryn and Jia Linq had equal numbers of bad and good.



I told you it was cute!

I don't mind losing as long as I give my best. Okay I mind it. But I don't hate it. Okay..

I hate it!

Get it?

Like the Flowing River

Be like the flowing river,
Silent in the night.
Be not afraid of the dark.
If there are stars in the sky, reflect them back.
If there are clouds in the sky,
Remember, clouds, like the riever, are water,
So gladly reflect them too,
In your own tranquil depths.

- Manuel Bandeira -
