met w/ jo @ 12++. we headed to far east straight to shop for lar's present and also shoes for jo's dining etiquette course. after much walking around, comparing designs and pondering if her royal highness princess larissa will like wad we've prepared, we settled for a gold-coloured zinc handbag ^^ very glad that she's happy and satisfied w/ it. we really did put in effort to make sure its to her style and liking, under my observations of cz xD
after settling lar's present we went to jurong point to find jo's dress. after looking around high and low we finally found the shop jo wanted to go. i was always under the impression that dining etiquette means it is for the old english royalty and noblemen, and that they are dressed that way. but now i've realised that any suitable dress will do, it doesnt have to be long, puffy and "made of silk" xD jo said she'll be bringing her mum to buy it for her tmr, since its quite expensive ($79+). we then walked around aimlessly looking at shoes, until we came across this crepe shop. i almost couldnt believe that crepe is actually imported into singapore. it is quite expensive thou ($5.50). i bought a strawberry chocolate ice cream w/ chocolate sauce crepe. it tasted like home-made pancakes my mum makes, very sweet but nice. unfortunately for me the soft crepe is unable to help me retain the melted ice cream and fortunately, it dripped on the floor, missing my shoe by less than 1 cm. managed to finish the whole thing w/o making a huge mess ^^; i felt kinda embarrassing that i seem to be unable to eat properly despite being alr 15+++ ._. no regrets for it is really nice and its imported from japan :DD 日本が万歳!
then we took mrt back to yio chu kang and walked to princess larissa's palace. gen was waiting for us at the bus stop and we went in tgt. after gossiping for a while about various ppl we know and dun know, it was dinner time. we had food catered and it was pretty nice. larissa's aunt cooked some really tasty chicken wing and dinner was really pretty good. i hope i wont get fat eating the dessert since both gen and jo didnt. God bless me and larissa, but larissa has to put on more weight...
discussed some details for 6a chalet at end of year. hopefully everyone cooperates. i know there is bound to be ppl who complain and dun appreciate, but i suppose this is life. either we continue, or we strike it off the list. it is already rare that we are still having gatherings at yearly basis, hopefully it wont be a history(:

happy birthday to mummy. although you are lazy, refuse to budge from the computer once you sit in front of it, does not cook dinner for us, have to do laundry by ourselves etc. you still faithfully wake me up every single morning so that i will not be late for school. i wish for you good health, for i do not know how to react if one day i wake up and you are not there anymore. love you.
to my fellow sec4 handbeller who scolded me like i was junk today; YOU SUCK. what makes you think that i am the only responsible party that you do not know of today's rehearsal earlier? bitch, get your facts right! you said that we the committee did not have initiative to inform you about the rehearsal earlier. you said that the committee was chosen because we are the ones with initiative, and that you were not because you do not have initiative. you claimed that we the committee isolated you and your friends and never tried to involve you people in anything. THINK BACK ON WHAT RUBBISH YOU FREAKING SAID! you said i was at fault for not calling you people when i entrusted the job to my secretaries to CALL on monday, not knowing that they did not do so until tuesday night when it was too late to call and that you are asleep anyway. is it really totally my responsibility? NO. i would not have even bothered to do anything for speech day if i did not cared about it. i only knew of it on monday morning, and i tried getting people to call which they did not right after school when i am free. i do not think that you are totally ignorant especially i remember seeing you and one of your pals on the bus on the way home and i mentioned about the rehearsal. you replied that you might not be able to come due to your piano lesson and that was only one day. DID you LOSE your MEMORY? if you did, i shall remind you that your name is "bitch".
second, if you think that the committee is chosen solely based on initiative, i suggest you go on a test and make sure your IQ is truly that of a triple science bookworm. leadership is much much more than initiative. it is about responsibility, planning, taking action, communicating with your co-workers and letting things to be carried out smoothly. it is not as easy as you think and say. do not take everything for granted, what we are appointed to do is lead and not put a bone in front of you for you. i strongly agree to your claim that you do not have initiative. it is very obvious that you will not bother yourself in things that concern you if no one bothered to ask because you are such a stuck up. puh-lease. the world will still go on without you, you are not as great as you think. to me, you are nothing more than a proud and arrogant brat.
moreover, when we are having self practices and lessons, you do not pay full attention. after FOUR LONG YEARS then were you finally promoted to the performing group as there is not enough juniors to fill up all the available slots. you claimed that we isolated you since majority of us are part of the committee, but have you every thought of how uncooperative you are always? skipping self practice with the excuse of csp, leaving early straight after lessons with the excuse that you have a curfew, not trying to help set-up or pack-up every single lesson at all. you never tried to volunteer and help when we needed help. you complained about chalet being too expensive and that you did not go when we told everyone way before hand so more people can make it. in short, you never attempted to show that we can trust you and involve you in any form of planning. how can we afford to risk and involve you just because you are a stuck up and not accomplish what we have to do on time and in acceptable quality? THINK, BRAT. THINK AGAIN PROPERLY.
i agree that we are the worst committee you ever saw since we joined in sec1. we have poor communication skills, other than handbell you rarely see us together (with the exception of hannah jaanani and sangeeta), no common topic other than handbell. we all have our differences but we still tried our very best to make the best out of everything we do. do you have any idea how much time i spend planning, drafting, getting everyone to check their information before producing the final copy when there are people like YOU who is constantly not there early and never leave late. what gives you the right to scold me? you do not deserve any respect from me or from anyone for you never ever showed me the reason to respect you. i cried, not from being sad that i got scolded by a bitch like you, but because my efforts totally went down the drain unnoticed by stuck ups like you. for your information, i really do not care anymore.

had amathematics re-timed assignment yesterday for trigonometry. it was totally hell, the original timed assignment was way easier. i couldn't believe myself when i got stuck while proving sec2θ-tan2θ=cosθ+sinθ/cosθ-sinθ. it is not difficult at all. thankfully i'm not the only one that is unhappy with the paper. many people don't know how to solve the questions. i know for sure i will not be able to pass. to think she emphasized that we are not supposed to fail...
sec4s had an arts learning journey today. most of us went to fort canning park to watch the musical "Giselle in the park". the story is about this girl, Giselle, who falls in love with a royal disguised as a peasant. Giselle's previous lover was very upset and discovers that the royal whom Giselle fell in love with is actually the fiancé of a princess from somewhere far far away. Giselle became good friends with the princess when she came to the village to look for the royal who went into hiding, not knowing they both loved the same man. when the royal came back to propose to Giselle, her jealous lover revealed to the village folk that the man is indeed a royalty with the seal of royalty on his sword. he sounded the horn and the princess came back, knowing that her lover is found. Giselle was deeply shocked by the sudden news and went mad, and kept dancing till she died. now in that village there was this legend. any girl who died for heart-broken before being wedded will turn into a vengeful spirit, known as willies to the villagers. they seek for men who walks into the forest where they are buried at midnight and dance until they died. however the spell only lasts till dawn breaks. Giselle was initiated into the willies after she died. both her lover and the royalty came by to visit her grave as both man loved her deeply as well. the willies caught her lover and he was cursed, having the willies dance around him until he died. the royalty was not spared either, even when Giselle begged the queen of willies. Giselle then protected the royalty from being cursed by dancing with him till dawn break and the willies were forced back into their graves. the royalty took Giselle back to her grave and bade farewell to her, having to go back to his rightful wife. Giselle then went back into her grave, having to live an eternity as one of the willies. the musical is wonderful, from costumes to the way the story was brought out by the performers, from the melodious tunes to the graceful movements. i really don't regret having to rush home, take a shower and quickly rush out again despite the light drizzle and having to feed the mosquitoes at fort canning.
inez commented that my dressing today looked like i was going to dance hiphop -_- for goodness sake i can't dance just like that. i am not experienced at all other than one miserable year in chinese dance back in pri1 which is hell long ago. larissa asked me the other day if i wanted to go for contemporary dance sessions with her like after our o levels, maybe i will really follow. it's not like i am against dance, but without proper guidance to get me on track, i will be like a blind man reading a signpost to find my direction. also known as getting no where s:

" I solemnly promise that I will not touch sushi for the next six months." so whoever that catches me lusting after the sushi can give me a box on my face -_-
all because of that damned, cursed sushi i have spent my long awaited holidays squirming around on the bed trying to ease myself from the pain (in my stomach, abdomen and perhaps intestines?) and not studying and revising for mid years. the most infuriating of all would be that i have not completed my homework! to hell and damnation with sushi, you are officially blacklisted! if not for the fact that you do not have a head i would have gladly decapitated you. i am very thankful that i have stopped vomiting or i vow to curse you into extinction in my life.
watched step up 2 - the streeets - with my sister. it totally rocked. i am still very much amazed that people can dance like that. aren't they scared that their bones might break? love the short speech andie gave before her group went to dance outside in the rain and of course that dance. that was like the best of all in the movie. must watch.
chemistry spa on wednesday was totally cool, way better than physics spa in the least. other than me running out 20 minutes into the experiment feeling that i want to throw up, the rest was a breeze. hopefully the last spa will be the same and i will never need to worry about scoring badly. did the throwing up in the canteen after realising i forgot to bring the receipt to collect the handbell shirt. went home and to novena to collect the shirt after being half frozen waiting for everyone to have their lunch at kopitiam. hannah commented on why kopitiam was air-conditioned, which sangeeta pointed out earlier that kopitiam in singapore has progressed throughout the years xD the shirt is totally cool~~ can't wait to wear it.
spent thursday friday yesterday squirming around in bed. can't believe that sushi. hopefully i am well to go to school tomorrow with all my work completed and to give everyone their shirts, or they'll have my head.
