... can cause such a big impact.
you'll see what i mean.
this happened only a few hours ago, with my dad and i.
HOW TO GET A FREE RIDE FROM JURONG WEST TO BALESTIAL ROAD, THEN TO CLEMENTI. (don't s'poreans all love freebies :)
step 1: take your car out and drive yourself to a clinic in jurong west.
step 2: as you drive from the small slip road to the big PIE highway road, keep driving at your rather high constant speed striaght up.
step 3: just as your car is cruising down the highway, drive unsuspectingly over a piece of wooden block.
step 4: traumatised from the big impact of bumping, slow down your car to check for your own safety.
step 5: realise that your tire may be busted. pull up to the side of the road to check it out.
step 6: you find not one, but two, flat tires. (you only have one spare tire)
step 7: having no choice, call the tow truck person to come and tow your car for repair.
step 8: the tow-man comes and replaces one tire first. (the whole process of changing a car tire is quite fascinating to watch)
step 9: you hop on to his truck as he loads your car up his ramp thingy, and he drives you and the helpless car to balestial road for late night service repairs.
step 10: reached your destination. the repairman tells you your tire rim is broken too, and they can't fix it there.
step 11: the nice tow-truck man sends you to toh tuck road's tire factory instead.
step 12: after you drop your car off at the tire factory, the super nice tow-truck man gives a lift back to clementi.
step 13: driving in all the way, he drops you at your doorstep.
-------------------------------------------------------------
& that's how it's done :D
of course kids, don't try this at home.
afterall, the wooden block may be small.
but it's not that small. (big enough to give you two busted tires and a broken tire rim)
plus, a few cars were affected by it too.
me and my dad saw them changing their tires too. lol
the worsest case was that one motorcyclist tripped over the wood and he fell.
but he managed to run to the side of the road b4 the cars could knock him over.
what a night.
and now, to round up the evenful night with another evenful event!
sleep.

Saturday, August 18, 2007
once and for all.
it's settled.
in school, and out of school.
this week's been a wake-up call.
what's been done, has been done.
now..
we can only wait for our impending doom.
still,
i feel relieved.
i can finally unlock that burden..
oh, my heart's so much lighter now.
i never thought i'd feel like this :)

busy week, with love all around
okay, one week's almost gone..
2 more weeks to prelims.
6 more weeks to O's.
ah, gotta stop stressing myself.
so like, this week's been pretty busy for me.
studied most of the time
surprisingly i don't get as tired as i used to get when i tried to study last time.
i hope the motivation stays.
and for the rest of the time i'm out with my friends.
it balances things don'tcha think?
that way i won't get too cross-eyed when the exams finally come.
&& it's been great going to jy's and rae's cell..
life has really looked up again since He came back into my life :)
on thurs night, 17th,
we (amelia, limei, rachel, jingying, melissa and me) had a girls' night out!
it was funnn. haha
ate at new york new york!
yummy yummy stuff.
not to mention big portion-ed too.
and the couch place where we were seated on was simply comfy.
we took some pictures and i'll upload 'em when amelia's sent it to me!
but for now,
here's one that i stole from mel. hehe.
:)
today, 19th.
met up with rae, cherie and jingying to go to suntec to support the guys of UTG for their competition's heats.
we went for lunch at long john's
and found out many things concerning maggots.
lol
lucky for you, i shall not share the sordid details here on my lovely egg-ed blog. :)
then we headed down to suntec,
only to find that it only starts at 6.
(it was only like, 4.20 then?)
and mrs chng ordered us to go walk around first b4 it started.
we're not in dance anymore and she still bosses us around.
ah well.
so we strolled around and jia'en came.
later,
it was UTG's turn for the competiton and can i say that they blew the crowd away?
they were real good and everyone was cheering for them.
whooo am i proud of them.
of course, this makes me feel like groovin' to the music too.
raggae classes, here i come!
after that, we took lotsa pictures with rae's big cam, with bjorn as our photographer. (he can consider a career in this as he's pretty good)
it was fun fun fun!
i like the jumping picture of us.
haha
shall upload ALL the photos here when i get them,
so beware of a huuuge photo post again. :D
i found this and yeah, once again, decided to post it up here.
it was quite loong ago..
at cineleisure's toilet, if i'm not wrong.
ahh jingying blocked her own face!
anyways i needa go to bed now.
gonna conk out soon. zzz
good night, world & enjoy your weekend.
well, i just got to say,
this is not what i want, this is not what i planned.
but now i see, clearly.
we weren't meant to be.
minus you i'm better off, i guess.
you may think i'm just trying to comfort myself
but when i come to think of it,
you weren't really there for me like you said you'd be.
so even without you,
i'm not really lost.
what doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger.
yeah, i'm pretty strong now.
but i guess you're not.
cors you're acting like a coward
-by choosing the easy way-
by avoiding it.
don't you think at least an explanation is needed?

So what if right now everything's wrong?
i just posted the pictures of the the portraits.
scroll down to 6th aug post :)
hope it doesn't kill your com's speed.
lol
today's national day!
i'm loving the theme song. haha
last night i slept over at jy's.
it's comforting to have your bestfriend there when you're out of sorts.
thanks for giving up your bed for me!
and with good presence, it's just nice to have fellowship time.
oh, before that, trena came over and we played billards!
naturally i sucked at it.
so i just went to read while my brother and his friend play on with trena.
haha.
anyways, i went with jy for her cell gathering thing
and i'm glad i went :)
i liked everyone there as they were friendly and all that.
playing in settler's cafe was fun too!
i could stay there the whole day. lol
if only life could ever go the way we planned.
but it can't.
if only i could get my dad to just buy it back with his credit card.
but he can't.
if only i could drown in my mother's love forever, then i won't need anyone's love anymore.
but i can't.
if only i could throw a hissy fit just to get things done my way.
but i can't.
'cause i guess you've made up your mind.
and there's nothing i can do to change it.
so i'll accept it and wish you all the best.
i'll try to be strong and face the world head on, shoulders squared and chin raised up.
but i'll still be missing those days, those memories.
and i'll hang on to that diaphanous bit of hope.
waiting for the day when you finally have the time for me again.
if it makes me happy
it can't be that bad
if it makes me happy
then why the hell am i so sad

where is the love?
conclusion of the day?
people are superficial beings.
it is even scientifically proven!
and unfortunately i'm one of the test subject.
(it's like life's playing this cruel joke on me to prove how vain men can be)
see, i rushed back to sch today for the SPA practical or else the whole thing'll have to be postponed and i cannot live with the guilt.
so as i left the house, i was well aware that my fugly swollen eye and cheek has not healed yet, but i chose not to bother too much.
i even believed in the goodwill of men to be kind to me and not sneer when they catch a glimpse of my mishappened face.
but yet again,
i was wrong.
soo wrong.
i was walking to school and everytime someone walked past me-
and i have no idea why everyone has to look at each other's face while walking down the street i mean, why cant we just walk to our destinations without looking at strangers-
they would look at my face then turn away with whatever expression they get when they see something bad.
lol like it was me who asked them to look at my lovely face.
i am perfectly happy if they had just carried on minding their own businesses and faces, while i brisk-walk my way to school.
but nooo, i had to fight my way through all the embarrassed/guitly/disgusted/shameful stares.
whatever.
why do they care anyway?
aren't i depressed enough to be in this pathetic situation, and now on top of that, i have to live with stares from random people whom i may never see again. & i can't wear my shades too because if i do,
it'll just attract more attention and they might think i'm some despo wannabe celeb whose face resembles a stuffed one-sided dumpling.
ahh that's it.
i'm locking myself in the house and never, ever coming out again til' my face swells down.
the only thing is,
i have this craving for chocolates now.
but i can't and won't go out to buy it- to aviod more stares again.
can a kind soul please buy it and magically transport it to my mailbox?
sigh. i think no one would really be that charitable. really, my faith in mankind is semi-gone, after today's traumatic incidents. maybe i can teach my dog how to run errands for me. and his first task would be buying a bar of tolberone from 7-11..
digressing, don't you find that whenever we're sick, we have loads of food that we crave for. but when we're fit, we don't seem to want anything in particular? how weird is that, right?
or maybe it's just me. hm.
p.s. i'll upload the photos that sara and chester've taken, soon!
when i'm not feeling so down, that is.
right now i just want to crawl to my bed and die.

4th of august
Jingying, Jia en and me helped Sara and her friend, Chester for this project that they're supposed to do for photography class!
portraits.
so we went to arab street and haji lane to get some pictures
and well, we were quite shy about it at first.
but when we got used to it, it was a blast! (literally too. the sun was melting us. lol)
and it was a wonder the camera didnt die or su'm due to my swollen eye.
i'm glad my dad's old ray ban aviators came to good use.
sara took about 100++ photos while chester took like, 400++ photos and they are supposed to pick out only 5 for their submission.
all i can say is,
may the force be with them :)
after which, i went home to change and my family went out to have a birthday celebration dinner for my dearest lil'brother!
had some ah-mazingly delish BBQed food with sambal and the works.
happy brithday, Shawn! :)
i will always be your favourite (and only) sister. you will share with me your ice popsicles, and i shall give you a bite out of my yummy choc donut. we'll continue to laugh at the lamest thing as we crap through the night. and when im all ugly with bad hair days, i can count on you not to grimance at the sight of me, but to smile and talk to me.
i love my lil'brother!
and yeah i skipped the achievers' day & arts@tanglin performance.
i wanted to go to support my friends who got the awards, but i went for my brother's dinner instead. (ms kavitha's gonna come after me with a hammer on monday)
sorry i couldn't be there, but i'm real proud of them! way to go! :D
wanted to go to watch the guys do their dancebliss item too, but i heard their performance was da bomb, no doubts man.
argh.
i look hideous now.
i am soo not in a condition to go out today.
i am gonna stay at home, do homework, and watch old dvds.
i like watching dvds.
i am hungry. haha
ah wells,
good bye, world.
i'll probably be in hiding til' tmrw.
for now, i'll just wrap my head in a big silk scarf and order pizza for lunch.
so long!
2 more months to Olvls;
joy.
alas, i miss Ben.
