Reach for the moon and if you fail, at least you'll land amongst the stars.
i wish upon a shooting star...
for good friends, family and food!
that everyone will be happy :)
heyy!!! :)) okay! shall begin typing what will probably be the longest post of my blog.. hahahahaa hmm where to begin? let's start with last day of school.. it was kinda happy and sad at the same time.. cos like only half the class was there and we didn't really get to say bye to most of our friends esp those who won't even be here in singapore for the next few months :( bittersweet bout results mann.. i got almost every grade... and i guess that about sums it up.. i know i should be contented.. actually i am for some of them.. like my Amaths... hahahaha! i'm SOOOOOOOOO GLAD there were many people to help me along the way.. if not for them i'd probably be like dying at that area and totally regretting...so thank you thank you thank you guys!!! :) hmm wish i could have done better.. i knw now's the holidays and i should be chiong-ing and all.. but i just cant seem to get started and all... :( sooooo lazy... mayb i should go look at my report book again.. sure can get started :p but everyone around me worked sooooooo hard and some got their desired results.. while others.. let's just say i was shocked *sorry* i mean... must it really take such a big blow for me to realise that such things can happen and it may happen to the most unexpected of people... so cannot complain and must must work harder i guess! :) my sister did okay lah.. i think.. for her anyway... for once in her life she get to feel what it's like to be near the top of the class... happy for her mann :)) hmm after that... THE FIRST WEEK OF HOLIDAYS! YEAH!!!!!!! :D had CC3 confirmation camp on monday and tuesday... it was such an AWESOME way to start off the holidays.. it was really one of the best camps o ever went too :) and the first one that actually made me cry! :O hmm.. we went to st theresa's retreat centre... near ij kellock i think.. started the first day by playing some games... and we were kinda playing captain's ball.. and obviously it was guy-dominated.. cos they were like the only ones who touched the ball and ran around after it.. haha! :) then was LUNCH! :D yum yum.. hmm i think after that we went to the colombarium.. that's the place where all the ashes of the people who have passed on are kept.. they have a pretty and big colombarium there.... never been to one before so i didn't know how'd it be like.. it was..an experience.. happy and sad at the same time again.. saw children who died as young as a few months old! so sad.. made me think how fragile life really is.. it can be gone just like that *snap fingers* and then there were those that had whole families that were RIP-ing together.. so sweettt... and there was this young boy who died quite long ago but i saw his parents still go visit him there.. very touching... and it was sorta significant too.. cos that day was ALL SOULS DAy (2Nov) then we went back to the ahll and they started asking us like how we felt and what would we want people to remember us for when we die and what would we do if told we only had 3 months to live..and it was thinking time... really made me stop and think about these questions for real... cos i ever thought bout "death" before.. but never as seriously as this.. and i'm glad i did cos i actually managed to answer some questions for myself :) okay... i think i';m babbling.. sorry bout that... hmm can't quite remember what happened after that.. i think we had some praise and worhsip songs.. OH! did i tell you. ms sherlyn khong.. my teacher who taught me in p2 and who came to brief us bout chiang rai mission trip a few days ago came for our camp! so good to see her again.. it was like soooo long never see her then all of a sudden she reappear in my life.. *is this telling me somth???* haha! :) then we had to wear a blank shirt and we were blindfolded.. then led to a room and somebody would come in but he/she can see you but you cant see him/her and then the facil would ask like if this person (meaning me) hurt you or did hurtful things to people then he/she can take paint and smear on the back of the shirt i was wearing... this happened for everybody.. and then you yourself can take paint and smear the shirt front if you think you ever hurt anybody... which i guess everybody obviously did before.. so in the end everybody got painted shirts.. very symbolic.. cos it made me realise (again.. hmm why this camp make me realise so many things) mad me realise that i should be careful with what i do and cannot just anyhow say/do things.. cos i may unknowingly hurt people.. oh which reminds me.. i sincerely apologise to you.. yes you.. if i'e ever hurt you before :) then was dinner and some sharing stuff and then had confession with priest...and i think was zzz time... the girls can sleep in beds leh.. but the guys had to sleep altogether in this room with only mattress on the floor.. actually.. felt quite bad for tthe guys... i mean so what if they're guys..and we're girls.. it's like such a big difference.. guys sleep floor girls sleep bed....... then they said next morning can wake up at 8am but they started banging on our doors at 530am!!! saying we had to go for morning mass with the sisters at the chapel nearby... we were shocked mann.. nobody in the world expected that! haha.. the sisters were soooo cool :) and they wake up so early just to have mass everyday.. super admirable mann :D after that had brakfast.. but very few people were hungry... most were just quite pissed that they had to get up so early...and they show attitude :( then got a sorta scolding session which soon became like a confrontation.. and individual people were picked out.. and sorta questioned bout their faith and real attitude towards church and god and all...super scary!!! but in a way it was good cos it really made the fact that we had very few months left to our confirmation sink in... we would be confirmed soon next year but were we really ready for it.. so now.. i shall try to be a better catholic :) and make a conscious effort to know more bout god :) hmm..then was lunch and sorta silent adoration in front of the cross.. the whole room was dark but got candle light and everybody was like concentrating and all.. super cool!! :) then i think it was dinner and clean up and we had to go home.. reached back at church around 9 plus i think.. went home bathed and had to on the com to chek up on guides stufff.. cos had to go school early in the morn for guides on wed! hahahaha guides on wed... hmm did profi badges stuff and prepared for sec4farewell.. sang the dedi song.. so awesome! didn't know the guides could sing that well.. well some of them anywy... it feels so different and weird to not be there and be the one singing but instead i'm in front controlling the music player.. it feels different you know... *mixed feelings* thursday.. didn't really do much.. i think just sat at home and finished up watching this drama series and helped my dad cut bamboo to use as a bamboo pole to hang clothes! you wouldn't believe how dangerous a seemingly harmless bamboo cn be... it has like tiny hairs which will fall off and sitck to you... and it's damn hard to remove and super pain if you go press.. and it's so small that it's so hard to remove.. had a hard time taking it out of my hand and helping my dad to do it.. cos he rub against the plant and it got stuck at places he can reach :P so ma fan right... so lesson learnt.. dont go cut bamboo pole without wearing shoulder-length-gloveS! :D tehn friday.. today! :) one more day to my birthday!! :) haha... just realised i got my first birthday present on the last week of school.. given by ashley... then had my first birthday wish by someone special who thought my birthday was last week..but then i was like no it's one more week and he/she was like paiseh.. haha! :) but it's okay.. a wish's a wish right..haha.. then had 2 more wishes by amanda and nat tong b4 they went for their PL camp which is from 6-8nov so they cant wish me on the actual day.. so sweet right.. haha so anyway.. thank you to these people! you guys are so awesome! :D had sorta birthday lunch with family at.. you guessed it. swensons! had my yummy ice cream.. and then walked around thomson plaza a while.. went home. bathed.. read my book.. fell asleep.. woke up and realised i had to go for evening mass with church friends! hurry change and went there.. my first weekday evening mass.. it was cool! umm it was held in the chapel and i haven't been there since the church was renovating.. it was so pretttyyyy! :) then went for dinner. but couldn't really eat due to eating so much during lunch.. haha! :D then here i am blogging till my fingers ache from typing... shall probably stop now...
