Ok.. i've been on holiday since goodness knows when and i've actually had 2 more extra days.. so i should be grateful enough for that and not sulk about having to go back to school. SUCK IT UP AND FACE IT!

2009-01-11T19:18:00.000-08:00

It's not that bad and everything's gonna be FINE!!Yes isabel.. psycho yourself!! Here i am sulking at home 2 days before school starts. One sem in nus has really taken a chunk out of me hence the feelings of great apprehension. Throw in my timetable and an evening final paper which drags my last day of school to the 5th of may; i feel great! =x But then again i'm taking modules that i actually

oh gosh.. i'm having random thoughts at 1.38 in the morning. Pretty weird hour to be thinking. I was just thinking about the happy events in 2008 i.e SERVE, Cambodia, TMT etc... and i was really wishing that i could re-live those memories. Like go back in time and live in a continuos loop of those times.. sure i wouldn't be sick of it. But unfortunately, (or should i say fortunately?) that's not

"What's worse, new wounds which are so horribly painful or old wounds that should've healed years ago and never did? Maybe our old wounds teach us something. They remind us where we've been and what we've overcome. They teach us lessons about what to avoid in the future. That's what we like to think. But that's not the way it is, is it? Some things we just have to learn over and over and over

"People have scars. In all sorts of unexpected places. Like secret roadmaps of their personal histories. Diagrams of all their old wounds. Most of our wounds heal, leaving nothing behind but a scar. But some of them don't. Some wounds we carry with us everywhere and though the cut's long gone, the pain still lingers. " - Grey's Anatomy (Scars and Souvenirs)Yup i couldn't agree more...

haha i feel like posting again! Anyway this post is going to be on the theme of giving thanks...Yes.. i admit i've been whining alot and this post runs counter to the previous 2 posts but admidst the dreariness there's still stuff to smile about.I thank God for my friends who saw me through my shittiest moments and still love me despite the ugly attitude i'm capable of displaying.I thank God for

I know i haven't touched this place for ages and this post is really random, but i really need to rant so here goes... I never thought that australian uni thingy would hit me so hard. In fact when i first got the news it felt like it didn't really matter. But i guess i'm experiencing the impact full blown now. I'm not upset purely by the uni thingy; it just happens to be the triggering event that

TMT 25 May - 3 June 08yes.. I know this post is way overdue but I never really had the time to sort out the pics and think of what to write. So here goes.. Well, I went to Northern Thailand, Chiang mai, Omkoi to teach english in a primary school in the town. It's a pretty small and quiet town but none the less a nice place to live in. We taught english in the school for 5 days, teaching from 9-12

And so the nus faculty of science camp aka scamp has ended. It was pretty much running around nus and singapore and playing a bunch of obviously sdu endorsed games which thankfully i managed to worm my way out of. The highlights being the food trail in geylang and fright night at old henden camp. The seniors seriously did a really good job for fright night with the realistic costumes, make up,

I have been on leave for 2 days and i'm enjoying it but i have to go to work tomorrow! It feels good to just stay home and read a book for once. Anyway monday was really tiring because I was dragged around far east by calisita ng bi qing before meeting mel and shu huey for ac band barbecue. We all left early in the end because we felt weird. I realised that we really aren't very close to the

Goodness.. I haven't blogged for ten years.. Maybe I should start again. So here goes my attempt at reviving my blog.Yesterday I met up with cal, ah gong and jun ping. We were supposed to meet at 9.30 but that woman didn't appear til around 10 plus. After which we spent almost 2 hours looking for a nice quiet bar to talk and apparently a bar fitting the above description was not in existance. We

I wish I could go back to being a kid again. Where life was so carefree and you trusted everyone so easily. You didn't need to worry about the future, you really just lived from day to day. Somehow you knew everything would be there for you. You never had to worry about what to do; at least mom and dad would have had that planned out. You just simply believed and trusted. Now it's all about

It's my last week in pkh and i don't feel like going back anymore!!! It's amazing how time flies. The 1st 2 weeks crawled by and the last 2 weeks are zooming past. *RAAR* i remember telling joo leng before i left that scully after one month i don't want to go back and looks like it's coming true!!! I'm soooo gonna miss my students.. i think i might cry. My students said they will miss me too.

Here's my update for the week. Basically, i officially started my job as a teaching assitant. I help to supervise the class, mark their work and i also give remedial to tge weak students. So far I taught 1 official lesson. Super scary lar.. i still haven't figured out whether giving remedial or teacing the whole class is worse. But my students are really very nice. I currently have 3 remedial

SERVE 08 has ended! I can't believe it... those 2 months just flew past. Anyway it's been a really great experience and i really don't regret ever going for serve. The lessons learnt and friendships forged are just so precious. I couldn't have wanted it any other way. I just thank God for putting me in SERVE.On friday we went for night cycling.. we cycled from ecp to esplanade, played pepsi cola

Mel, Martin, Nabi and I went to the istana to watch the acsi and acsib band perform and i got heat injury. Partly coz i was standing in the sun for too long and i didn't drink much water. My vision started blurring, my hearing started to go, i started turning pale and before i knew it, i was on the verge of blacking out. So they had to move me to somewhere with shade. It was such a horrible

On friday, i started playing around with a knife and with the recent hoohaa we had been making bout sweeney todd.. kris exclaimed "sweeney todd!" and edited the photo.. it's seriously quite funny.. except that i don't look demented enough as i was trying too hard not to laugh..

Choices have consequences...Many times we do things without thinking of the consequences. We act as we please, without checking our behaviour and considering the implications of our actions. We might end up hurting ourselves or worse, others. There are 2 ways you can learn a lesson.. 1. by learning from others' mistakes 2. by learning from your own mistakes.. and yes.. the latter is always the

I think i can take back my old nickname of disaster girl. Yesterday i dropped sashimi into my bag. I was happily going to put the hamachi nicely dipped in wasabi into my mouth when it slipped frm my chopsticks and landed somewhere down. After tracing the soy sauce trail, the sashimi was found in my bag right on top of my chem and math notes! ROAR! Today i happily walked into the classroom looking

yay! I'm very thankful for alot of things.. I'll just name a few.. 1. my friends who helped me collect my notes when i wasn't in school. 2. I missed 173 and caught 176 almost instantly just when i was about to cab home.. saving me the cab fare. (this happened twice in a week) 3. My bro bought the harry potter book for me as an early birthday present! He came to disturb me bout the book that day

I'm like uber tired. The day started out with tennis with nabi, joel and hong chin at hong chin and joel's house. Where we whacked a grand total of 9 balls out of the court in random directions out of which only approx half the no. made it back. Ball whacking statistics... joel: 0 nabi: 2 hong chin: 2 isabel: 5.. yes.. violent me murdered 5 balls. Lol.. it was a randomly fun morning. After tennis

INSOMNIAI just can't get to sleep no matter how tired i am. This is driving me nuts!!! I couldn't sleep well last night coz i dreamt i was doing chem qns and i tossed and turned the whole night and woke up with a start. The only thing i remembered when i woke up was KMnO4. And this happened despite me being dead tired. I WANT MY SLEEP BACK!

So that makes it my cousin's wedding somehow.. my mom was introducing my bro and i to a whole tonne of relatives and it was rather intimidating coz the way you address them is so complicated and u have never met them before. ok.. they saw us when we were kids but we don't remember them. And suddenly i have so many cousins. Gdness.. i never

Today we had this rather cool lab session where we got to introduce plasmids into e. coli and my nose was dripping like mad. I think i might have contaminated the culture.. lol. The guys were playing with the rubber gloves by blowing them up and filling them up with water. Which they later threw into the girl's toilet to scare people which was quite funny. Eventually no one saw a water filled

I never knew you were like this. I am absolutely appalled by you. Don't tell me you understand because you don't and you are in no position to say that. I don't believe you actually did such a thing but then again, why am i not surprised? To think i respected and looked up to you. That pretty image you painted of yourself is ruined and i have not a single ounce of respect left for you.

I walked pass fairfield today to meet dorcas at the fairfield bus stop. As i gazed into the school and saw its various rooms, memories flooded back. The band room, our sec 3 classroom where we used to throw jean luah's stuff ard, learn at fairfield where we got caught playing bingo in class and where we slogged our guts out for Os. The chem lab where many crappy lab accidents happened not

Bio paper was madness. It was physically and mentally demanding. There was like hardly enough time to think, my hand almost dropped off and i finished mcqs in 10 minutes. After bio was 2 and a half hours of chem tuition. I'm mentally exhausted, don't feel like studying for chem. 4 down, 1 more to go.

People keep saying, "we're all in the same boat." However, i beg to differ. The thing is, they are in an ocean liner, while i'm in a sampan which is sinking and on fire. The most wonderful thing is that instead of quenching the flames, kerosene has been splashed onto the flames. You know what this means? I'm going down. Well done isabel.

Bio olympiad is a horror. Its like mini mental marathon although i don't think some ppl wld think so. There are 4 parts, A, B, C and D and you do A and B first in 1hr 45min then you are given 30min break before you do C and D. Effectively you do 200 questions in 3hr 30min. Which is 1.05min per qn, each qn 5 options. Your mind just doesn't stop working. Although in the middle of the olympiad i

I spent the whole day cramming bio today. Congragulate me! Me and Shu huey were so bored with campbell that we got super amused about turtles breathing through their asses. And we started laughing at the pictures of the scientists. Quite disrespectful.. We needed to derive some thrill out of studying that 3kg book.

I just came back from staying at janice's house. It's been a fun filled 2 days. After school on tue i met up with xuan and ben to do janice's present. It was really crappy coz we encountered lotsa stupid incidents while pasting the pics and decorating the scrap book. Which led to screaming and squabbling. sng weixuan and benjamin siow are DAMN MEAN! they made me write 93 captions! My hand almost

I should have heeded jasmine's words that day. But i stubbornly ate that double chocolate chip cookie. So now i'm down with sore throat and flu. Didn't go to school today and i feel really bad about it. The doctor gave me 2 days of mc but i'm not sure whether or not to go to sch tmr. Maybe i should.Anyway, in my delirious state last night i had a dream of 3 groups of people i spend the most time

Despite being in such a terrible mood recently, I thank God that there are still things for me to smile and be thankful about. I thank God for always being there for me no matter how terrible i am. I thank God for blessing me with so many friends who would give me that boost when i need it. Encouraging me, lending many listening ears, simply just being a friend, helping me when i need help etc.

Its irritating lar, i wanted to study but ended up sleeping. Feeling better mentally and physically too. And no, i'm not nuts. Hope my problems can be solved soon. I just have to keep praying, trusting and working hard. =)

Here's a chapter from the bible i read when i feel down and i always feel better.The lord is my shepard; i shall not want.He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters.He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.Yea, though i walk through the valley of the shadow of death, i will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod

2006-06-08T07:19:00.000-07:00

I'm super sad. I feel horrible and terrible. I'm suffering and hurting physically, mentally and emotionally. Sometimes i wish i could just die while walking along the streets.. get knocked down by a car or something then it will all be over. But thats not exactly the way life is. But i'm sooo tired. I need a doctor and a shrink. I need you to pray for me.

I have finally finished my last test of the term! I'm sooo happy! The thing bout having so many tests is that it feels sooo good when its over. Although i know i have screwed up my math test today, the pain is only temporary. =p So i can finally breathe a sigh of relief and slack my time away... ok.. only for a while.I had my first bass guitar lesson today! Michelle taught me the c and g major

today i went out for lunch with kc, eunice and jing. We talked bout lotsa stuff and during 1 of our conversations, we agreed on one thing.. life IS pretty boring. Its like i don't see the meaning of life. I stop to ask myself "what are you doing?" and "why are you doing all that?" I dunno the answer. Maybe its just the expectations ppl have for me; i struggle to meet them and end up implementing

Its amazing how i can do all that and still have a social life and the time to be a couch potato. Ok, i don't do some tutorials and i don't mug alot. And i know that i'm SOOOO dead for math test!!

I'm super shagged! Had band today as usual but it was really long and tiring. It started with the founders day then sectionals on 1812 overture, lunch then combine. During lunch, qian qi kicked kenneth's butt then commented that it was very big. Then she wondered out loud... "why is he butt so big? whats under his shirt?" So she walked over and lifted up his shirt frm the back and the whole world

I'm super shagged and my muscles are aching! Yesterday it was madness all the way. Around 2 hours of squash, 2 hours of pool and 2 hours + of band. Playing squash with the sch's rackets can really make your arm break... like what we were told. Its super heavy compared to stupid chia hoe's $230 squash racket which we didn't hesitate to treat roughly. oh, speaking of chia hoe, the fag's pants SPLIT

I fell down the stairs of a double decker bus 2 days ago thx to some stupid shu qun girl. yes, i know u will probably erupt into fits of laughter like what my other friends (esp. daniel) did =/ but its not exactly supposed to be funny. But i kinda find it funny... but i'm pissed bout it!!! ok... it was a lazy morning where u get total silence despite the bus being crowded. We went

The eve of chinese new year's eve =) The stupid celebrations in jj ended around 9.30 which was good... but i'm still furious that i missed mass dance in the morning! Went back to fairfield after that. It felt so good being back there... seeing my juniors, my teachers... miss Mdm Xu hui lots! Even elaine's long winded talks seemed acceptable. Sat in the canteen and talked crap with my 4A friends

2006-01-25T21:35:00.000-08:00

Yes, i didn't go to sch agn today... chances are i might be missing sch tmr as well. Actually its quite cool.. if i don't go to sch tmr, that would mean that i spent only 1 day in sch! haha.. i have been sick more or less the whole week and i'm sick of going to sch too. Its so mundane. Nothing much to look forward to, nothing much to do but to listen to lessons. But i feel compelled to get

Especially when he starts

I admit that i did egg beatrice on initially but that didn't mean i was the mastermind or instigator. I recognise my part in it and i say a big sorry to everyone. If by taking the full blame, everyone wld be happier i gladly do so. Do pardon me for appearing dao but i don't really feel like talking to anyone now. I need some time to sort out my thoughts and emotions. The deeper the friendship,
