Even if the world collapsed, if you were there, I would not be afraid.

I had a good time these few days! Hmm, should I start from last Thursday…?
Okay, so last Thursday, I went out with Dawn, Yu Leng, Si Min, Cass, Sin Hui, Felicia, Victoria, Evan and Szu Yee for dinner after practice, and decided on Astons’ rather than a steamboat.
Cause there was ABCD (A Bennu Crazy Day) that day, i ended up drinking this disgusting mixture that’s part of a game. And there were all sorts of things inside: Wasabi, green chili, curry sauce, barbeque sauce, garlic chili, durian, bittergourd, sugar syrup, coffee, aloe vera and one other thing I can’t remember. The distinct taste was that of the coffee (yuck) and durian, with a little spiciness as the mixture went down the throat. xP It’s a good thing we didn’t throw up after that. *dies* And they decided to play Captain’s Ball with a raw chicken!!! >.> I thought I might lose my appetite if I watched too much of the raw chicken being slapped to the ground and grabbed by numerous people, so I left with Victoria and Cass after one of the chicken’s leg nearly got torn off. It’s a total waste of perfectly good food!
Anyway, I couldn’t continue watching, so we left to meet up with the others from practice and then went to drag Szu Yee from the game to no avail. XD But Dawn pretty much lost her appetite for any chicken after watching the game. Haha. Evan stayed to wait for Szu Yee, while the rest of us went on to Astons’ at Suntec to wait for them.
We ended up buying McDonalds’ ice-cream to quiet our loudly growling stomachs cause we couldn’t find ice-creams with decent proportions and pricing. When we returned to Astons’, we found that we had to wait for us to be seated cause the seats for the large groups were mostly taken. Sigh. So we waited for both the seats and the guys. XD And watched a funny video about some guy being chased by a pig, but I’m too lazy to provide the details, so too bad for you.
Eventually, we got our seats and people at the other table were singing a birthday song for their friends, so we joined in the clapping. XD And we had funny conversations while waiting for the food, some of which focused on how Evan is rather… feminine. HAHA. Yu Leng and Si Min were in their own world talking about dramas and idol groups. XD And Dawn kept trying to include them to no avail. Then Dawn realised that it was the first time I’d ever had dinner with her, and I was shocked to realise that too. Haha.
This is dragging really long…..
After dinner, we went to the place above the Fountain of Wealth to trash things out with Evan. And Szu Yee provided us with entertainment by not choosing a side to be on, while Evan looked like an emo kid. LOL. But we got everything done anyway(:
Then, it was Christmas-tree hunting time! We took a lot of photos (like camwhores – the pictures are up on FB, if you want to find them) at weird places that somehow turned out quite nice. The only trouble was getting people to take photos for us. XD And we took pictures with a grand total of 3 Christmas trees! O_o Took the first two outside Suntec, and the last one in CityLink (and just when we thought that was the end of the Christmas trees…).
After that, everyone went home by MRT. 
The end! No, wait, there’s still today to talk about.
—
Went out with Xiu Han, Cass and Victoria to buy XH’s court shoes (is that how you spell court shoes?) at Bugis after practice today. We all had the fish and chips set meal at the place where my PW group ate when we went to NLB the other time. We wanted to buy ice-cream after that, but ended up shopping for the shoes first cause we wanted to let the food digest. O_o Window shopping takes a lot out of my energy. I guess it’s a form of exercise if we carry heavy loads and walk for a long time? Anyway, back to the story. We went to Bugis Street and XH was complaining that she’ll look short beside Elaine cause 1. she’s short and 2. Elaine’s wearing heels too, which will undoubtedly be really high. XDDD And we told her not to care so much (at the very most, don’t stand beside Elaine!).
After we accomplished our task, Cass told us that she wanted a boyfriend shirt, so we went in search of one. And we looked for accessories to go with that too, as well as advising her what to wear to complement the look. XD XH and I nearly became her fashion consultants. Heehee. And we weren’t really happy with the shopping cause we didn’t bring enough money, so we’ll probably have another shopping trip (this time with more money) at Far East or somewhere that’s not Bugis again, cause I’m sick of Bugis and there’s only so many things there. I wanted to look for a vest, but there weren’t much choices… So we ended up eating ice-cream and walking around Kinokuniya, talking about all the mangas that are there. But disappointingly, there wasn’t any 07-Ghost or DN Angel volume 12 and 13 out by Chuang Yi, so I perished the thought and wandered around the place aimlessly. XDDD
When we looked at our watches, we realised that it was nearly 6.30pm, so we split ways with Cass and took bus 12 home. And XH was talking to Elaine on the phone, who seemed a bit confused by XH’s words (it’s another long story), and she nearly missed her stop. Then I took a look out of the window and realised that it was her stop, so I told her to get off. XD It’s a good thing she didn’t miss the stop, but I have the feeling she was going to explode from explaining things to Elaine. HAHA.
And yes, I got home, ate dinner, watched TV and used the laptop. End of story. There may be a part II on Monday, if we go out again.

This is a nice song! It’s the opening for 仙剑奇侠传三 (Chinese Paladin 3). Or maybe, I’m just a sucker for poetic songs. I feel that the rap kinds of ruins the song, though. Oh well, either way, it’s still a nice song. I like the tune. Heehee.

生生世世
Artist: 吴雨霏
爱 还没来 天地间风云忽然变
有情有义的人都要回来
爱 总会来 生死注定的来世再爱
都等了太久哭尽无奈
RAP：她从树中来追随前世真爱
亲身体验过春去秋又来
情到至深时乌发也浓白
剑后心动花灿烂的开
爱恨纠缠的生生世世 心底执着的信念为你存在
多遥远的路 都阻挡不住 再次拥有没距离的温度
失去自由的生生世世 有爱不懂相拥错过了最爱
送一剑祝福 再默默相助 恐怕没以后不自觉留退路
RAP：一段记忆有三世那麽长
到最后要用一碗水去遗忘
千年寂寞后你重见阳光
还是转头又纵身跳火海化成凤凰
为情所困的生生世世 伤也被伤命中成双的伤害
等不到日出 一个人孤独 让星光代替我伴你远途
黑白轮回的生生世世 彻底放开成全永远的依赖
是乱世英雄 或凡间俗梦 爱不离爱是把这感动留住

Mosquitoes love my blood. But I don’t love them at all.
Posted by: addenza on: November 11, 2009
Out of curiousity, I counted the number of mosquito bites I have on my entire body. And it was a grand total of THIRTY-SEVEN! >.> Here’s the breakdown:
Left hand: 1
Right hand: 3
Left leg: 17
Right leg: 15
Neck: 1
And my legs are itching like mad now! I need to find a distraction but if I start playing the guitar, my sis will kill me cause she has her A-level exams tomorrow. >< And I’m too lazy to spam mopiko, like what Yee Herng told me to do. Oh well, still, the chalet was quite fun, though I only went for one day. Haha.
Now I must tell myself not to scratch them! OMG. How am I going to play the guitar tomorrow?! I can just imagine myself playing a page before I stop for a second and scratch my legs and hands. Then they start to bleed cause my right fingernails are too long. O_O I’m morbid. Or maybe I’m a masochist.
Oh, and I can’t remember if I’d mentioned this but Liu Jin was telling me that people of my blood type are more susceptible to mosquito bites. T.T Oh yeah, and Yee Herng asked me why my own comrades were attacking me. =.= Lame.
Okay, the itch is not so bad now. No, wait. It got worse the moment I think about it. ;_; Never mind.
Sorry about the CAPS, I just love to use my CAPS to scream. ><
I’ve come to realise…
Posted by: addenza on: November 11, 2009
Took this from Yee Herng’s blog cause it looked like fun. I like doing memes. Just ignore the American spelling for realise. I’m too lazy to change them all.
—
1. I’ve come to realize that my hair:
makes me sweat more now with my new hairstyle, though I supposedly look better with short hair rather than long hair.
2. I’ve come to realize that when I talk:
I don’t make sense to others. But Zhi Yi and I are pretty much on the same frequency when we talk about manga. XD
3. I’ve come to realize that all I really need:
is someone to be beside me, but not ask me any questions.
4. I’ve come to realize that I’ve lost:
my interest in watching Channel 8 dramas because it’s always about the same thing even if the circumstances are different.
5. I’ve come to realize that I hate it when:
I can’t do what I’ve said to others.
6. I’ve come to realize that money:
is essential, though it cannot do everything.
7. I’ve come to realize that when I get old:
I’ll probably be alone because I’m a loner.
8. I’ve come to realize that I’ll always be:
the most susceptible to mosquito bites. So whoever wants to go to a place with lots of mosquitoes, bring me along and you won’t feel sad that you’ve gotten so many bites cause I’ll definitely have more than you do.
9. I’ve come to realize that I have a crush on:
my laptop. And the fantasy world of books and manga.
10. I’ve come to realize that the last time I cried was:
sometime this year when I couldn’t finish studying for my Physics test. But I can’t remember the marks I received already.
11. I’ve come to realize that my cell phone:
is cool. And I can’t live without it.
12. I’ve come to realize that when I wake up in the morning:
my hair looks nicer than after I’ve bathed and my hair has dried.
13. I’ve come to realize that before I go to sleep at night I:
think about manga too much, and even if I’m really tired, it takes me ages to sleep because my brain is still working.
14. I’ve come to realize that right now I am thinking about:
how my mom scared me when she suddenly came out to tell me to sleep. My heart’s still pumping fast. And that I need to brush my teeth.
15. I’ve come to realize that my life:
is boring.
16. I’ve come to realize that my favourite drink is:
soya bean milk. And milk.
17. I’ve come to realize that today I will:
really get some sleep.
18. I’ve come to realize that tonight I will:
not do anything more cause technically, tonight is very far away.
19. I’ve come to realize that tomorrow I will:
play my guitar and not go to school or chalet.
20. I’ve come to realize that I really want to:
learn Japanese, play guitar well, and maintain good ties with everyone I know.
21. I’ve come to realize that the person who is most likely to repost this is:
no one, cause I’m not tagging anyone.
22. I’ve come to realize relationships are:
to be maintained by people.
23. I’ve come to realize food is:
something I like most of the time cause eating is my favourite pastime if I’ve got nothing to do.
24: I’ve come to realize that this holiday:
is not a holiday, but an extended school that we don’t have to study in school.
25. I’ve come to realize heartbreak is:
not something that I’ve ever experienced. But I wonder if I broke any hearts? Hopefully not. ><
26.I’ve come to realize that my sister(s):
has the exact opposite personality as me. And we somehow still manage to live together under the same roof and sleep in the same room. XD
27. I’ve come to realize that crying:
is useless and makes your eyes puffy and sore.
28. I’ve come to realize that death:
is inevitable but I hope I won’t have anyone else close to me experiencing it.
29. I’ve come to realize that if I’m sick:
I bring trouble to my family and I can’t watch TV or do anything other than lying in bed. Sigh.
And we’re moving right along.

Went to school to hand in I & R in the morning and waited for quite a while to do so. To pass the time, we started writing in the teachers’ report books that we bought from Action City yesterday. Speaking of which, I got my gift for the gift exchange at Bugis with my groupmates after we finished our OP.
While they were writing, I saw Xiu Han, Dawn, Siew Ting and Wan Si with two guitars. So I wandered over there and practised the Winter Sonata song. I doubt that I can play it properly on Thursday, though ><
Anyway, we went off to MacDonalds’ to eat after we handed in the I & R, and we collected the monopoly stickers. After piling up every sticker we received, we realised that all the stickers were missing that one last piece that was needed to win the big prizes. =_= We were still harbouring hope that we would get some rare stickers and win a prize before we took everyone’s stickers. Oh, and we took some from other Dunmanians who were eating there too.
We went to my house to drop off our bags before we went to the park to cycle. Haha. And my whole living room floor was covered with their bags! It was quite a sight. Haha. But the house was messy, and it’s a good thing there was enough space to put all our things.
Then we walked to the park and cycled for an hour, though it took us quite long to decide cause it was drizzling and I was thinking that it might turn into a storm. Good thing it didn’t, though, and we decided to carry on with the cycling as planned. I took a double bike with Zhi Yi while the others took one each. But that was quite… pointless cause though the guys went really fast, they kept stopping while Zhi Yi and I continued at a steady pace cause we didn’t want to stop. The decision to cycle was a good one, though. I enjoyed the breeze on my body and it felt like a long time since I’ve cycled.
After cycling, we went back to my house to collect our bags (and grab a drink of water) before taking the bus to Changi. And we got off at the wrong stop, so we took three buses instead of two. And we walked into the wrong place when we reached, which was like a breeding ground for mosquitoes! I estimate that I have around 28 mosquito bites on me. And yes, the mosquitoes all love to bite me. I hope there weren’t any Aides mosquitoes. I don’t want to get dengue fever. We saw the 34 people also, who were having their class chalet at the same place (Aloha Changi).
I was anticipating a chalet of the standards of Aloha Loyang which I went to for squad chalet a couple of years back. But I have to say that this chalet beats Aloha Loyang. Heehee. There’s at least one cat at each chalet, and everything was bigger than Aloha Loyang. One drawback was that the place was quite isolated and a little difficult to find. O_O I’m talking in PW language! Back to the point. We also had this barbeque pit to ourselves which is better cause we don’t have to share a space with others. The rooms are nice and big too!
Mr. Chew brought his chocolate fountain thing! Which is going to be difficult to clean. Good luck to whoever’s cleaning it. Haha. He got me to help out with starting up the thing cause all the girls were in the room enjoying the air-con after we’d washed our legs in a futile attempt to reduce the itch of the mosquito bites. And he came in asking for a helper so I stepped out of the room. And I got to see how a chocolate fountain works. Though it was a small one, it was pretty fun to see chocolate flowing. Too bad the chocolate wasn’t all that warm, but it was still quite useful when it came to coating the fruits with the chocolate. Haha. It was especially popular when the marshmallows were finally toasted. Oh, and there’s quite a lot of food left from the barbeque so there might be another one tomorrow night. O_O
The presentation of the report books was quite funny, and we had lots of fun writing comments for the teachers. We were practically laughing to death when we decided on all the funny comments. Like “He has a potential for great leadership, such that everyone gravitates towards him.”
Oh, and Mr. Chew’s wife came too! Haha, we greeted her with a good night at the door. It was quite funny. And the couple ended up having a candlelit dinner which became a lamplit dinner when the candle wick burnt out. Meanwhile, the guys were making lots of noise playing card games which distracted the teachers while we rushed out their report books. XD
I realised that everything that I’m writing is all messed up, but just bear with it cause I’m just writing out whatever I can think of right now. And I’m tired too. ><
Mr. Dev, Mr. Tan and Chak played a game of… Black Jack, I think, where the loser has to look for a raisin in the satay gravy with his face. While Mr. Dev went to move his car, Chak collaborated with Mr. Tan so that Mr. Dev will lose. XDD And he really looked for the raisin with his face. O_O It was quite gross cause he spit out the gravy while he was looking for the raisin.
Some of the 34 people came over for some reason which I can’t remember, and they were saying that their chalet was more fun until they saw our chocolate fountain. XDD
I was happily waiting for the gift exchange but they didn’t hold it even when I was going home. So I ended up leaving my gift with Cass since it didn’t make sense for me to keep it and went home. Yeah, and I’m now sitting in front of my laptop and typing this out. I’m too lazy and tired to go for the juniors’ guitar session and the chalet. I think I’ll stay home tomorrow and perfect the concert song. =_= And I shall go post a meme I saw on Yee Herng’s blog.
When one gets overwhelmed by life…
Posted by: addenza on: November 4, 2009
It’s been quite long since I last blogged. Anyway, I went crazy doing my OP slides that day and slept for less than one hour because I had a lot of things to finish by the next day since it was the OP trial. And I stayed back to help out with the overwhelming number of people who wanted to join guitar. O.o So I had to finish my I&R, OP slides, and redo my cue cards starting from 6pm. I finished everything at 4.45am. And I was supposed to get up at 5.30am, but then my mom let me sleep a while longer and I got up at 5.40am instead (cause my sis didn’t need to wake up so early that day).
Okay, back to the point. We changed our slides again. I think this is the third major change. And I’m going to die clicking the slides cause if I even click one wrongly, then the whole thing will screw up – if I click back, the entire slide will start from scratch. O.o
So. I’m just going to die. Wheeeee. Can’t wait for OP to be over.
Nothing much today. Went to eat at 18 Chefs. I realised that I’ve been spending a lot lately. O.o And I’ve not been eating dinner for the past two days (and now I’m hungry -.-).
My paragraphs are getting shorter cause I ran out of things to say. -_-
I’m definitely going to screw up OP tomorrow. And the one on Friday. And the actual one on Monday. SIGHHHHHHHH. I need to learn how to go without cue cards, and speak confidently while looking into the examiners’ eyes…
On a happier note, DGM 188 is finally out (well, it was out 5 days before the actual date…) and it just gave us more questions than answers. Sigh. But at least it’s back on a regular basis (monthly).
Well, I’ll just have to “wring it” tomorrow, I guess. I don’t understand why people want to wake up so early in the morning. I HATE WAKING UP EARLY. [/rant]
Oh yeah, and whenever I go online nowadays, I will get a headache within ten minutes. Cause there’s a lot of problems to work out and people see me and start asking me questions. I think I remember why I love appearing offline…

You can always drop me a comment if you find that I have really gone out of board but please do not flame me. I will get the message with just a comment. All flames will be deleted.
-taken from my Disclaimer page.
Apparently there are people who do not understand what the definition of “flame” means. Here’s my definition. Unconstructive comments that tell me I’m no good without giving me a good reason why they made that comment.
Yes, “poop“, I’m talking about you. At least give me your name, where you are from and a good reason why I apparently need to reflect on myself. And I’ll keep your suggestion in mind when I next post. If not, I will not accept flames from a person whom I do not even know and anything that you post will be constantly deleted.
A timely email…?
Posted by: addenza on: October 23, 2009
Just read this email from Mr. Teo (our DM) telling everyone to keep their noise level to a minimum cause there are still people taking exams. Sigh. I recall reading one right before my Promos too. But of course, it didn’t work much.
For our Math exam, there were people CHEERING/SCREAMING non-stop at the gym (cause the hall is next to that) and the gym creates echoes. So the noise level was twice that of the usual one. And I was so unlucky to be sitting near the back of the hall that was nearest to the gym. O.o Oh yeah, I was silently cursing those people and felt highly tempted to do the same to them when they were having exams. But I thought that that would just reflect badly on me. XDD And I was going to be busy with PW while they had their exams, so I decided against the idea. Though it’s annoying when you’re trying to find the answer to a particularly tricky question and your mind is filled with the happy cheering of the junior high students having PE on that day. Oh, and if I remember correctly, it was on a Wednesday. Somehow, the teachers conducting the lessons just let them shout without thinking of us. Maybe they should hang a banner that says “EXAMINATION IN PROGRESS. SHUT UP OR DIE. PLEASE REMAIN SILENT.” over the railings of the gym and that might remind them to keep quiet? And the same can be done in the canteen and parade square. Haha. Okay, that was a random idea. Which might possibly work. Oh great, I’m thinking in PW now. =_=
Why do we have to pay for their sins?
Posted by: addenza on: October 23, 2009
I’m not really switching to livejournal. I just opened an account so that I can keep up with Mirabelle, who doesn’t allow anonymous posting. Sigh. Okay, anyway, my point is that I’ll still be using my WordPress, probably simultaneously with this one. Haha. So I’ll just copy and paste what I type here to the WP one. By the way, LJ feels like dA. XDDD As in, the posting thing.
Met up with my PW mates to submit the WR. It was a relief to get it off my mind. I nearly killed myself formatting the stupid WR. It made me go into a bad mood for a long time. XD Oh, and one lesson I learnt about myself from PW: if I’m not in a position of authority… scratch that, I meant, the person of highest authority, I won’t do anything for the project. Because the others cannot give me what I want. Like I have this idea in my head about what the whole WR should look like, and I received something else, which made it unbearable to look at (for me, anyway). And I really needed to look at the thing properly, so I just retyped everything into a new document and cut down on the words. Surprise: we have two projects (well, something like that) and lots of sub-projects, but we still managed to squeeze everything within 3 000 words. O.o I bet the guy at the printing shop earns a lot of money every year just from printing WRs. XDD We had to print 2 coloured copies and 2 photocopied ones. Yesterday, Zenn argued all the way from school (in the morning) to 328 Katong Laksa where we had lunch, to Summerfrost (where we had shaved ice that was really nice) until we walked to Katong Shopping Mall to get the thing printed. And while waiting, we argued again at the shop. O.o It was killing me.
Back to today.
Went to school early to submit cause CK had Chinese lesson today at 10. Sigh. Zenn was asking why we couldn’t meet up later when the dateline was 12 noon cause I said to meet up at 9.45. I initially wanted 11.30, but Dilys was arguing with me over sms and I really killed my sms and fingers trying to explain to her why. (Oh yeah, and it was also because I had guitar practice in the afternoon and it made more sense to go later so that I won’t have nothing to do around school.) I’m so sick of arguing with them. I get a headache everytime I meet up for PW cause they ask so many questions at the same time that I don’t even have the chance to answer one of them before another one comes up with a question. Okay, I’m sidetracking again.
After we submitted the WR, Zenn, Cass and I went to the student lounge to play pool/Wii/watch other people play Wii. XDDD I somewhat learnt how to play pool. Yay. And Mr. Chew joined us later while waiting for Kai Ming’s group and Chris’ group to submit their drafts. KM’s group is scary. They were binding the thing at 11 plus?!!!! But Mr. Chew really is a pro at pool. >< Yi Xiang actually won Mr. Chew, though. We were all very surprised. Haha. I got tired after playing pool for a while and decided to sit in front of the TV and watch Yi Xiang/Zenn play Okami on Wii. XDD It’s an interesting game, but since I get lost so easily in a game (as well as real life), I declined the offer to play it. XDD I’ll probably kill Yi Xiang’s character which took him 24 accumulated hours to reach the level. The place got crowded sometime around noon, and I decided to drag Cass out to KFC for lunch cause I got sick of McDonalds’ after eating it for 3 days for the past week. We were talking and walking until Cass suddenly realised that we were not walking to KFC but to KLP. XDD So we did an about turn and walked the long way to KFC. Oh. I guess that’s why I’m tired now. Haha.
Went back to school for guitar practice. Very happy with my section for Always With Me cause everyone can at least play the song without telling me, “Wen Yi, I have no idea how to play this song at all!” All I need to do for the sectionals would be to coordinate the playing! But more work needs to be done for Dance of the Yao. I keep feeling like Siew Ting, Liu Jin and I are the only ones playing (i.e. the ones sitting in front) because Felicia plays softly (low confidence?) and Wan Bo can only learn by using tabs…… Sigh. It’s a good thing i learnt how to read notes. Okay, I should stop bitching about this.
Um, so basically, that’s all for today. I got kind of stressed out last week because of all the work for WR and OP I had to do. And the last week of school sucked cause I didn’t get to sleep before 11pm due to all the stuff undone and people telling me that they cannot take it so I had to do it for them. No, not implying anything. I just need to vent my frustrations and irritation like a girl. =D
Double standards
Posted by: addenza on: October 19, 2009
You and your double standards. But I’m not that stupid to pick a fight with someone who’s asking for it.
The list of what you can say/do to me but I must never ever say/do to you:
1. “Shut up!”
I say this when you’re noisy and you say that you want to slap me or that “I know you’re saying this cause you’re losing the fight” and become pleased with yourself.
You say this when you sense that you’re losing the fight.
2. Being rude
I do this when we get into an argument and you scold me.
You do this whenever you get into an argument with anyone.
3. Swear words
I must not say English swear words/vulgarities.
It’s okay for you to say them in dialect.
4. Nagging/Repeating the same words over and over again
If I say the same thing more than once to you, you say that I’m irritating and tell me to shut up.
If you do the same thing, you do it for almost the entire day. And I cannot tell you to shut up because you will then fly into a rage.
5. The last word.
In a fight, it’s illegal for me to have the last word.
You’re the only one who is allowed to do so.
But did you know? Having the last word in the fight is different from having the last laugh.
—
If all of the above doesn’t show that you have double standards, I don’t know what else is “double standards”.
Yes, we are all imperfect, but don’t show it so blatantly.
