★ so not everything's a sob story....
Friday, April 29, 2011 -{'2:09 PM
facebook seems to make everything sound like someone's lives are in pieces while others are just too perfect to imagine. i guess one's initial reaction to everything is slightly exaggerated before their rational thinking sets in. i cant wait for myself to get back into working order so that i can finally DO THINGS!!!!! my ears are still blocked from all the sneezing and my nose is also not 100% OK.
the weather just took a turn for the better...it has now started to rain! complete with thunder and lightning! i hope it lasts till evening...
so back to my conclusion:
not everything's a train wreck. no, you won't die if you don't get what you want because you will fit in somewhere in the world, not as a useless hobo btw. come to think of it, my current lifestyle would be that of a useless hobo...only thing different is that i actually have a home... but i will make progress!! next week is full of driving and THAT smu interview... i better start planning for the future. this year seems to be going by pretty fast and yet i don't seem to be doing anything. although i'm not complaining about it! a lack of things to do is very welcome after what i went through in jc. so ONWARD WITH THE FREEDOM!!!
people are getting news from ntu and nus already. WHOOO. yes, this officially marks the start of me becoming a mail-obsessed-girl-just-waiting-for-those-blessed-letters.
i officially love my life... or that could be the cough medicine talking...i dunno...
★ finally over the sickness??
Thursday, April 28, 2011 -{'11:28 AM

so i'm over the whole THESCRIPTISTHESICKESTBANDALIVE phase... well..not really. THEY'RE AWESOME!!!!! alrighty down to business..
i know i havent updated in a while. but i've been busy being unemployed... really. like i've been doing work at home and relatives came down over the weekend. and i fell sick on friday...in fact, i still don't have my voice... its all croaky and weird. BUT it should be better since i just came back from the polyclinic with sickening cough medicine. ohk, not caring...
DRIVING!!! again. this morning. WHY OH WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE A MONDAY MORNING. so sleepy. the idea of being kept awake by your own inability to control your coughing doesnt make it a particularly good morning.
feeling down again... this year is so depressing.
Am I better off dead
Am I better off a quitter
★ the best concert EVER.
Wednesday, April 13, 2011 -{'10:50 AM
and seeing what they posted on fb just makes you all happy inside to be a singaporean...
THIS POST IS DEDICATED TO THE SCRIPT OMGYOUGUYSAREBEYONDAWESOME.
but lets rewind to the suffering we had to go through.
i met gwen at around 4 to have a snack before camping outside fort canning but it was there that i met stef and cheryl and her friends!! whooo!!! so altogether around 8 of us went searching for the place...and we eventuallly went an entire round all over fort canning before getting stuck in the line which was already really long. and that was only at 5 plus. i mean its bad enough that i didnt get any ben and jerry's yesterday but then it started RAINING. and POURING. and we didnt have enough umbrellas. and it was MUDDY. and the guy who was giving out ponchos refused to give any to us cos we were standing at a nearby shelter. SERIOUSLY. so we waited till around after 7:30 before the line started moving...and we finally got out awesome pink wrist bands before HEADING IN!!! we were actually quite close to the stage FINALLY THE WAITING AND THE RAIN PAID OFF. and well... -insert extreme adoration towards the script for how awesome they are and how awesome their performance was-
really. i'm not even exaggerating when i say that their performance was the BEST CONCERT EVER. Danny's voice was PERFECT. not like usual singers who can sing live for nuts. and oh gosh the drum solo...really good. and naturally all their songs were really good so altogether, AN AWESOME EXPERIENCE. but if you really wanted to complain, standing there getting squished by other people and feeling like the heat of a thousand suns was all around you were the only downsides to the whole thing. OH not forgetting the way back to a concrete ground where we had to cross a whole area with just mud. NO GRASS. that got our shoes so muddy it was like stepping in quicksand. but YES, I WOULD DO THAT ALL OVER AGAIN BECAUSE YES, THE SCRIPT IS THAT GOOD.
so to the script, PLEASE don't EVER stop making music. COME DOWN to singapore again. IN FACT, you guys should do meet and greets. =D
★ THE DAY OF THE SCRIPT
Tuesday, April 12, 2011 -{'11:09 AM
before i elaborate on the title of this post, my practical driving lesson was in the morning! i managed to do reverse directional changes and right turns! right turns are pretty irritating somehow.
went for a movie with HT yesterday...it was fun...and funny...you can guess by now that i'm not just talking about the movie. so to recap HOP. plot was predictable. but hey it was quite funny. i havent been messing around much with photoshop as i'd like to be doing but then again, this week is kinda packed with stuff to do. in fact, its amazing how even though i don't need to mug or go to college or basically do anything productive with my life, i still don't really have 24/7 to vegetate on the couch.
SO TODAY!!!! is THE day!!!! for THE SCRIPT CONCERT @ FORT CANNING PARK!!!!!! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!! quite a lot of people i know are going... which means i think its going to be packed like crazy. and its a rain or shine event so PLEASE PLEASE SKY GODS DON'T LET IT RAIN!!! but its still safer to being an umbrella along.
LET THE AWESOMESAUCE EXPERIENCE BEGIN!!!!!
★ THE SPECIAL EVENT
Saturday, April 9, 2011 -{'11:14 PM
SO ON FACEBOOK, THERE'S BEEN THIS EVENT THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN TODAY...AND ITS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW. I KINDA FORGOT ABOUT IT IN THE MORNING BUT AS SOON AS I REMEMBERED, I WAS TOTALLY ON IT. SOME OF YOU MIGHT STILL NOT KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT... SOON IGNORANT ONES, SOON.
SO LIFE'S BEEN GOING ON AS USUAL. I'M REALLY BRUSHING UP ON A CERTAIN ASPECT OF MY CHARACTER-PATIENCE. YEAH SMU, TAKE YOUR TIME. MOMMA'S RIGHT HERE.
ANYWAY, I REALISED JUST HOW NOT PERFECT MY DRIVING TRULY IS. NO REAL SURPRISE THERE.
THIS WAS JUST SUPPOSED TO BE A POST ACKNOWLEDGING HOW SPECIAL TODAY ACTUALLY IS.
FOR THOSE WHO STILL DON'T GET IT, ITS CAPSLOCK DAY. =D
★ almost midnightttt
Thursday, April 7, 2011 -{'11:58 PM
mood: uptight (again)
more ppl are getting calls for interviews and acceptance letters from unis. WHATCANISAY. apparently going to uni seems like the worst thing that is happening in my life, or should i say not happening. like REALLY. what has the world come to when getting a higher education makes life harder than going by the easier route. go figure. its just so annoying. SO ANNOYING.
and on the darker side, my stupid ucas application is still constipated. if i get rejected by both uk and sg unis, i will have no where to go. NO WHERE. i'll be a useless hobo for however long it takes to take an alternative plan of action. and nobody wants to be a useless hobo.
but then again, at least i can say that my newly dyed hair still looks AWESOMESAUCE.
still havent booked those script tickets either... PLEASE DON'T SELL OUT YET. the whole universe seems to be against me...excluding my hair.
ohkkk... i'll probably just post tmr.
oh god. my dad just deleted the stuff i've been working on for the past 2 hours. like i said. THE WHOLE UNIVERSE IS AGAINST ME.
★ life is a learning journey...
Monday, April 4, 2011 -{'11:14 PM
as the title suggests, i think i'd better make life easier for myself and start advising myself on what i should be doing. its not like a really need myself nagging at me all the time but its time to start listening to one's conscience. gosh that sounded psychotic and schizophrenic.
lesson 1: don't procrastinate
as much as i'd like to and as much as i tell myself not to, i still end up doing it. i mean case studies from the past have shown how negative the effects of it are. so this is me stating it in black and white ,quite literally. in fact, just by stating that i shouldnt do it isn't going to make me automatically stop procrastinating. i am acknowledging that its a habit that i'll have to cultivate.. in fact, i'll even set a deadline for me to finish this. by the time i turn 19. yes! the guide to life based on 18 years of experience. how weird yet challenging.
lesson 2: double check everything.
whether its the condition of the clothes that you're buying or the checking the timing of your exam, double checking may not even by enough sometimes. where i learnt this from? the o levels. the e math paper was in the morning and i had wrongly seen the time to be around 2pm. so by the time my mother called asking why so many sec4 students were going to school, the feeling of complete horror that engulfed me was unimaginable. REALLY. YOUHAVENOIDEA what it feels like to almost miss your o level exam. that morning was so bad. thank god i reached just as the paper started. i would probably not be able to apply for uni now had i missed the exam.
i will be continuing this as i go along... but now, i'm off to bed cos there's driving in the morning!!
till the next time,
GT
★ hello hellooo helloooooo!

waddup peepzzz!!! just finished another driving lesson...and finished changing prospectingforhamster's blogskin... again... don't worry you'll get used to change! =)
so i've booked driving 3 days in a row again...this time intentionally done. but its a pity that i failed my final theory test. BY 1 QUESTION. but who's feeling bad right? the instructor actually asked me today if i had finished my final theory. when i told him i failed by 1 question he laughed. LAUGHED. i'm sure it must have been hilarious.
in other news... Adele's 'rolling in the deep' has officially gotten stuck in my head.... weirdly enough, i kinda like it stuck... speaking of stuck. the car i was driving stalled on the road twice today...great. and i nearly knocked this unfortunate soul who had picked the wrong day to blindly cut across the road. thank god for brakes on the passenger's side. i also heard that some girl fell onto the mrt tracks yesterday and got both her legs cut off. talk about freak accidents.
watched DC cupcakes yesterday...i didnt think making cupcakes could be so intensely stressful. no, that is not sarcasm. and i've been dabbling in cooking these days too...in fact, after this i'm off to cook me some carrots for lunch.
Throw your soul through every open door
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold
★ personal challenge ...drumroll!
Friday, April 1, 2011 -{'11:53 AM
okay so in the previous post i had this personal challenge...and i bring good news! and slightly bad. i managed to finish everything on the list! but that said, its only fair to admit that i only finished those things at 11:30pm...so ... not that much of a celebration.. haha but hey who's paying attention right.
Katy's perry's 'peacock' sounds really funny. i mean the rhythm and everything are awesome except the lyrics. why katy whyyyyy!!! but thats not important....
overseas uni apps are now plaguing me...OH GOSH. but i guess i wont bother doing those today. just. cant. be. bothered. SPEAKING OF WHICH. i cannot believe some universities are under the impression that the language they're referring to when they say 'view in your own language' for singapore, its in mandarin. REALLY PEOPLE. REALLY?!!! really. how weird.
another song that i suggest you people listen to is 'backseat' by the new boyz, the cataracs and Dev. its such an awesome song!
till the next time,
