beloved bed; [08 07 07]
[ mood | awake ]

the next few days denotes no school, but numerous tests revisions, assignments to hand in the next week ahhh

i do need a bed more than ever. not just mere beauty sleep, but energy to recharge my body.
it was pretty obvious to the extent of teachers asking me whether I was fine. really grateful for the ahem, long weekend to come. besides all d mundane work to clear, it gives me a break from the usual school timetable:D:D

politics. it seems apparent that everywhere we go, people do say politics are so intense and unbearable. 
what is true politics?

the brief idea of it: people are basically hungry for power, power struggle?? like how everyone yearns for some form of authority to define who they are in terms of their ability? is it that important to be entirely in control? to make decisions which have power upon?

office, school, family politics maybe apparent everywhere. 

we have a choice:

* to think like the herd mentality- basically following what everyone is doing and make a bigger hoo-ha than what is already is.

*or to think of your true feeling and stand up for what is right. 

seriously, who stands politics man? its a mere waste of time. lets do the appropriate way pretty please

last weekend was at indoor stad throughout. great time, learnt alot, knew alot more. nothing beat first hand experiences. attending to people's need satsfied me. hmm, somesort of unspeakable joy. saw plenty of familar faces too- additional form of unspeakable joy.

& my class is addicted to playing bridge! the addicition is so apparent that we brought 2 decks now instead of e usual one. that's erm, jc form of entertainment with our short breaks. 

msia trip tmr is cancelled. blessing in disguise!
thank you J

tiring first week of term 3 [07 08 07]
[ mood | tired ]

i felt so lethargic this week that whenever i meet anyone familar, i'll just smile, perhaps with a pretense. aiyoo this can't do man!! yolanda cannot be unfriendly aye!! really need to work my timetable out so i won't be too tired by the end of d week. 

majority of the results were out. no failure but no distinctions either. yeehaw, bottomline? work hard for promosPROMOSpromos. 

friday's netball was D best ever man! self training turned out to be a soccer match. bimbos soccer match to be exact! everyone was screaming all d way whilst kicking d ball regardless of d directions! a few goals were scored particulary by the pro of pros, carebear! haha yeh && she ran 16 rounds non-stop before that.  imagine that baby!

woooo got my asics shoes today. i've a feeling d indian boss charged us way higher than market price. well oh wells, i really need a new working running shoe with double cushion for training. spot plenty of pretty shoes like the glow in the dark green nike lowdunks, nike soccer boots, slippers etc. boy,oh boy, one at a time, one at a time. i still want to save for mission trips (but not much progress thus far heh)

last thing, i was THIS close to watch NDP preview yesterday with Cheryl & Nicole. would love to, really! but then i knew sotm was more important. though i can hear it over again if i ever buy the CD which costs an arm and a leg to a student like me, i just had to hear it all to see the big picture. D Big Picture that I need to see, do, act. there's really not much time left mannnnnnnnnnnnn

& i can't wait for tomorrow! school's starting (no more monday blues) & i've napha in 2 weeks time!boy, oh boy! 

p.s: i still want to watch NDP badly with d new layout @ Marina!!!!!

a better place... indeed. [07 02 07]
an hour ago, i've just found out that tmr is a school holiday! (for all MOE schools, that is.) imagine e outburst of happiness when i heard it from err dae yon? the rest of my classmates din't bother to listen since i was using a   private number. hahaha what to do, sometimes i don't dare to pick phonecalls from private number too. oh-kays, point of matter- my brain capacity is reaching its limit& i don't rmb so many things :?

today was like another whirlwind of emotions. 
i woke up @ 628, when i'm supposed to meet d rest of U @ 620! imagine d panickly yolanda attempting to recall what time its was after sleeping for 3 hours. but what striked me was, the day before when we went out for supper, why could d rest wake up & reach way earlier then i did today, while i can't? anywayway i was late for 3 minutes even though i ran in heels with BAD blisters.

&&just to breeze through earlier, i got scolded for no apparent reason.what's more? that person technically should hold some maturity. or so i thought she had. & later @ home i got scolded again because my mother needed to vent her anger of my brother on me(being a spoilt brat, he wanted to arrive late for NS). all these rubbish moodswings were accumulating so much so that i broke down in d car on e way to granny's birthday bash. really, i did try. sometimes i wonder; why do we join certain activites that only serve to anger us even more? but what really matters is that i'm able to learn a valuable lesson from it right? you know, it can be tiring when you try so hard & all d attempts fail.. yet, the naughty mentality often strike me. why bother rushing to places & get yourself so tured @ d end of d day? 

take whatever you've read with a pinch of salt. its just... nothing much.
happy youth day ahead.

[06 22 07]
[ mood | hungry ]

for many, today would be their last weekday holiday.
but for the ahem, very special pioneers (not forgetting i'm one of them)
most are down with one more paper! i'm down with 2 more.

i'm trying to go friends only. still figuring out, some way, somehow.
but how? 
teach me, someone!

while walking to school this morning, i felt a wave of uneasiness just swept past me.
a change of jcs? is it allowed? 
i really don't know how to put it.

oh! i missed econs paper due to my outbreak of rashes. 
horrible small lumps!
all over my body. imagine if i went for econs, i would be scratching like a monkey, in the exam hall.
had a choice to miss physics too.
being the err hardworking me, i went for it! 
counting down till tuesday!

$ econs
$$ is
$$$ INTERESTING

but i rarely seem to score :(
tmr will be an exception! (or so, i pray)
have really terrible rashes sprouting out. oh no please don't do this to me.
 of all times, it has to be in the midst of my exams.

I do need Your Grace.
I will run to the hiding place.

so you would come [06 15 07]
[ mood | cranky ]

sheesh i detest myself so much for feeling lethargic and thus, sleeping. shall not eat the medicine anymore.

revision!revision!

the last lap =/ 

responded!

its this simple... [06 14 07]
[ mood | calm ]

Everytime i see my friends hurt, I would love to heal it.
I would like to tell you, just how easy if we place our trust in Him.
Let Go

& Let God.

But, the courage? the fear that hinders us? why not just entrust it into Him?

Its one thing to know, another different matter to apply what we know. yea?

We know so much, yet when the actual situation strikes us, we just refused to let Him take control.
why the disobedience?
why the resentment?
why the stubborn attitude?

on a lighter note, the doctor issued me 7 types of medicine. half of it would make you sleepy. That explains why i've slept for 12 hours last night. Technically, 12 hours. But throughout the slumber, i woke up to cough countless times, wondering whether will i cough blood out. with all the coughing, sleeping for 12 hours seem like 2 hours. 
heee

take care my friends:D

my life-saver [06 04 07]
[ mood | rejuvenated ]

you know, i've a friend who's always there when i needed Him, always lending a helping hand whenever i needed, cheering me up whenever i'm down, spurring me on whenever i'm on the verge of giving up. its saw a joy/pleasure to have known Him in my life. 
& for that, i'll not let Him down, no matter what it takes. 
really, glitz, glamour, prestige is not what i yearn for. 
was on fire once in strikeforce, the numerous performances, to put in our 101% best.
but now, in UM, its more than before. ever before.
 its all about the;
Passion,
People,
Perseverance,
teach me like you would, mould me as you could.
My Life-saver, thank you.


its time to start studying for mid years, two more weeks to go!
i'm so weak today that i did not go for netball &  patrick's birthday celebration. one day to re-charge before the busy schedule swings back in. 
its possible, right?

responded!

not mine, but your will. [05 17 07]

This Holiday...

 

i want to do see, watch, hear, shop, feel the excitement of school break. yet, some things have to be sacrificed depending on my piorities. i want to join my parents for the Japan trip next week. pre u sem clashes so well, it beats staying @ home at least. a 6 day 5 night stay @ Boon Lay. hmmm, a short getaway perhaps? the spongebob show & art fest seems really tempting! plus the great singapore sales too! but, a BIG but, exam starts straight after june. guess exam takes precedence after all...

2 terms have passed but it feels like a year. somewhat a breeze but when the schedule is hyped up with events after events, we get so caught up with the nitty gritty details & don't realise what's the ultimate purpose & motive afterall. sometimes i do get mega tempted to sign up for sim courses. it's time like this when i detest myself for yearning to take the short cut, pave through the easier way out all for my own selfish desires. 

mature. 
maturity is when you can limit your own freedom for the benefit for others.
oh, please, give me an overdosage of it.

yo has maternal instinct ?! gooodness [05 11 07]

my maternal instinct kicked in today during the assembly talk. child-bearing no doubt can be a tormenting physical process, BUT upon viewing the formation of a child from a foetus, its so heart warming thinking you own it/ experience it (at least once) yourself. caressa wants 5, ely wants 2, cheryl wants 2. me? the more the merrier! nah, depends depends on how rich my husband is too aye?

back to school later for a stayover so that we'll be on time @ ntu tmr. 
strength, strength, i really need the energy!
have a enjoyable weekend cum mother's day celebration ahead!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADDIE!
sorry i can't make it for your party! doubt you'll catch this, but we meet up really some all rights!

Little Miss Trouble [05 04 07]
[ mood | okay ]

  
giggleZz. i'm so tempted to get these teeee shirts. particularly the little miss trouble ones! so long since i've last shopped online!but but, need to save!heee.
 this week hasn't been fantastic. 
i really miss running, walking fast. no longer will i take running for granted. to think i wanted to run the 10km cross country tmr.  if only i could :(  
just discovered meebo. but still, can't log on to msn at  home. guess the network connection really needs some help! 

& a sub-pass for chinese test! oh no oh no my chinese needs help terribly! physics grade wasn't what i wanted... but still, be thankful & grateful.
great weekend ahead!

pig trotter leg [04 29 07]
[ mood | contemplative ]

hi hi made a trip down to the sinseh @ the heartland instead of netcall @ccab with my parents yesterday morning. despite the short span of time, i managed to catch up with my parents who seem non-existent even though we live under the same roof. its just explains how caught up we are with our lives& neglect the closest kins and loved ones. 

right there i had my fortune told. there's this elderly guy who assisted in taking the queue number. he started reading my fortune on how i won't go far overseas beacuse of my small feet(hello size 7.5?) & how smart i'll be after examining my thumb. he's like the ultimate with buddhism. attempted to put my china studies knowledge to good use, but well, had a tough time speaking in fluent chinese aye! couldn't care less with his comments but my mommy says to accept the good stuff & reject the bad ones. hee but i feel fortunate enough to have my fortune told:D

right inside they had all the statues of buddhism, daoism & what-have-you.  the pain was really unbearable when he started pressing on the acute point. i was in great pain, din't know it would be that tormenting! ha like what i told everyone, i believe its worse than childbearing even though i've not tried giving birth. (seee, the extent of painnnnnn) now its wrapped with some black paste (chocolate). its getting itchy esp when i can't have it in contact with water. the stench is....pungent (esp in air-conditioned compounds! )

on a lighter note, i've decided(90%) to stay in pj even though it can be dread at times with the piling school work. 2 years. i'll bear with it till 2008? 

cheryl cheryl i'll make a special column here for you here:D dearest projectwork partners, we're pretty stagnant with our draft aye! haha we gotta do something sooooon!

take care & have a great labour day rest folks.

meanwhile:
upcoming physics/chinese test
projectwork pi
all the mindmaps & more

Thank You, Really Thank You!
responded!

a quick one.. [04 23 07]
i've been contemplating; to enter SIM using O levels? not that JC is not my cup of tea, i'm just unsure whether this decision was made correctly in the first place. first i withdraw from council, next move to withdraw from JC? rest assured i'm doing pretty fine over @ pj, but i'm afraid all the long & busy schedules will tire & wear me out sooner or later.. hmmm

hee but i still can't find the part where O lvl graduates are applicable: http://www.sim.edu.sg/sim/pub/gen/sim_pub_gen_content.cfm?mnuid=188

albeit all these, I Thank You.

p.s: as soon as BF is over, i'll try to get the children's church album. hearing re-runs of I Love You Sweet Jesus is soo soothing.

hello world, here i am trying to do china studies essay.or at least attempting to complete it.

friday went for night jaunt & i really regretted going beacuse we detour & did not not step in to Old Changi Hospital! it really defeats the entire purpose of holding a night jaunt without any erm, visits to errie places? haha wasn't really afraid beacuse i prayed beforehand:D while debriefing outside some heard noises(?drug addicts?) and spot a white figure floating. hah all the odd things happening. & e simple reason why we did not enter? 

e drug addicts might attack us.

Night safari, Changi village(all the gay hoolkers), East Coast Park(where i walked /ran from e food village to 7/11 to buy drinks), Lim Chu Kang Cementry(to watch sunrise?! apparently we reached to early& left for prata house before it rise) 

what a joke! & to make matters worse, & to tire myself out more, i left my phone on the bus. travelled boon lay, lakeside to search for that sleepyhead busdriver house who zoomed home so fast. together with some mg girl ( i forgot her name), we got the wrong address and both of us din't had a handy dandy phone which made it so much more inconvenient. went for slo training after that and slept from 6-5 till sunday.

easter,benny hinn services are over. Thank you God for the strength though the weekends and the weekdays! ahh pre-u sem is driving me insane. all the trainings clashes with some other events or another. v v annoying!

oh happy day! [04 03 07]

today during chinese lesson(d best chinese lesson thus far), i felt so jubilant all of a sudden. no its not whatever eyecandy:D that i saw or whatsoever. on the contrary, i felt so fortunate to be where i am today. current circumstances are definately not perfect or happy ending. in fact, its a far cry from it. yet, i really am grateful for where i am today. thank you family, friends, loved ones & Jesus :)
i really appreciate every single one of you!

some things are worth the sacrifice.. [03 31 07]

running rejuvenates. but considering the current time, i'd better seek other alternatives..

 during the busride back home just now, scoring grade C for english Os kept on daunting me at the back of the mind (even up till today.) yeah i know its time to move on & get on with life. but still, it was the only C. the grade that pulled down my raw score. the effort did not reciprocrate the result. or did i lack the effort ? it really kept me thinking. this cannot & will not happen again. made up my mind t have proper time management from now on. come find me at toh guan, teck whye & expo only. 
take care my friends ;D help me to help you eh?

thanks camille, rachel & meiryl for the wonderful company today.
note: the name ranks according to importance. hawhaw

stigma? [03 31 07]

sometimes its really frustrating to realise the perception people think of you differs so much from your motives/ intention. seriously, not like people comments matter. but sometimes it bothers. whatever constructive comments come along, i'll try to improve. being labelled as seems playful & suggesting that i ignore my studies is totally untrue. during first 3 months (when most people seldom bother bout studies), i stayed up till 2am to finish my AP/GP tutorials. look, i don't bother bragging about the effort i put in. but when i put in effort, i expect results? doesn't everyone feel the same? hey, no need much affirmation, just well, don't tarnish my reputation when you don't know me well enough.


infuriating luh.

& life's gooood, thank you one & all! [03 28 07]

hello hello no idea where to start, been's a loooong looong time since i've blogged. using this temp LJ journal which was meant for online shopping & not journal but nvm nvm since i've encountered some technical problems with blogger, i'll use this account for... as long as i like it. heh ;D

to continue from http://yolanda-nje.blogspot.com/ ;

backtrack: first day of school was.. horrible. the subject combination & everything made me so confused plainly because i was torn in between to join back 07A03 & take the usual Geography instead of my proposed China studies in English. vp dennis yeo made me think twice with regards to the decision i was making. was it for the friends or my interest? back in A03 i had all my pae friends whom i was really comfortable with.  yet, Geography was not really my cup of tea. so @ the end of the day, i chose Math, Econs, China studies in English & Physics and ended up in 07A05 with carebear & Elysia whom i'm most familar with ;D 
note: I REALLY REALLY MISS MY OLD CLASS , but well, lets get on with life friends hahaha too bad we can't have similar class tee ;(

hmmm the inbetween details maybe some other time, lets fast forward to today. it has been some emotional roller coaster man. first 5 periods was free & went for a run with yenyen!=caressa. after school, whilst in the washroom, helped Elysia to hold her wallet since she was in the cubicle. conveniently, i left it on the table. all of us din't realise till we were in the canteen? i tell you, my heart almost dropped out when we could not find it after returning back to the washroom. imagine a new GUESS wallet filled with 200 bucks cash & her identity cards of both spore & malaysia? there's a high possibility of not seeing it ever again. i felt so so guilty. well, some kind soul eventually returned it! saying a little prayer helps :) 
hah watched rugby matches & boy was it rough! all the poor bones/muscles/joints were injured like nobody's business. my heart went all out to all the injured beings. i'll never want my bf to be in rugby man! 

shots shots & more shots

 
last monday was half day because of goood A level results & for the first time k-box was fun & pretty worth it. ignore the fact the lady was crude & loud. the guys sang well hahah

before O levels results

18 March; sunday

p.s:april's gonna be busy. everything starting in full swing!  & alot of pictures are not in my com! so can't upload them.
have fun ahead (;

[info]camil_le   ang, i miss you too! no empty luggage please, only luggage with cold hard cash will be acceptable. hahah ehmmm you don't have time for me luh!
