Yes. My com is working again. School's been meh... these few days. Nothing very interesting happened. Actually something happened. Haha. Damn embarrassing.
Last week during rs, we were asked define what is a chaise. Then i go write:
" a chair is a chair, a chaise is a chaise. A chair is not a chaise, a chaise is not a chair." thinking that dont need to hand it up. And i tink weiqi marked me 200/100 and go put excellent with many stars... And guess what... I handed up forgeting abt it and yesterday my paper was shown to the whole level. At first i didnt know it was mine... Then at first i saw the 200/100. Then i say wah why so familiar one. I think my paper also have smth like tt one. Later mr ow go read out my paper. Then i was like omg! Its my paper!!!. Walao chao embarrassing la. And i didnt dare own up. Bt today i confessed to mr ow and he was super shocked ad he said: michelle i will remember this forever. Jokingly. Haha. I learny lesson alr: to pay more attention during rs.
Aim: upgrade into hall of fame! :)

And today is the first time someone said i am hardworking. Gosh i feel damn happy!!!! Haha. First time ah!!!! Lol... Yeaaaaaa.

Anyway, happy birthday AWE(some) wan li and daddy and adam lambert! Haha.
Aweawe... Grow up and stop being lame and jiayou for pitching. Number 2 pitcher!( ive given the number 1 title to kow, haha) hope u enjoyed our cool morning surprise:)

Gawsh... I feel so damn pathetic. My com broke down D: and i have to resort to blogging on my ipod. Life without com sucks. Ipod is running low in batt alr arh. Shit.

Anyway, i love xenia. Xenia is so fun to bully arh. It was super funny during career ed. All the buther sheets were filled with xenia all over. Ahaha. I am starting fall in love with 314. Last time i use to be only fitting in, but now i can fit in WELL. :) i can be the way i was in 204. Ahh it feels so great to be open...314 is really wonderful class although we are too peaceful at times. Lol. And besides the pressure of being a sec3 still hasnt really begun(at least for me), i can still understand stuff but its not for long la. so im enjoying it. And i feel so nerd copying notes... But note copying makes me happy coz my notes are neat and pretty :)
Oh btw Our class theme is cool. Watch out ppl.314 is gonna get the prize for best class decor

We lost the match yesterday to peicai 5-8. But its ok. Bdiv still rule! Jyjy for tuesday's match.

Ok i go watch american idol. PANTS ON THE GROUND!!!!

something happened in school this week and it has been very the atmosphere has been very solemn the past week. although i dont personally know her but i heard about her greatness. its really a pity. but i hope that where ever she is now, she will be happy and we should be happy for her.
cheer up christine,eunice,kelly and whoever that were touched by her.
rest in peace.

I find it kind of scary. Last year, 3 of my friends' close friends passed away and i always think that it will come to me someday soon. Although this isnt exactly a close friend, i hope a close friend of mine wont die.
this incident made me think that people come and go easily. you can be here today and gone tomorrow. and sometimes i wonder what would people's reaction be when im gone and what people will remember me for. perhaps this help me learn the importance and living every single day of your life to the maximum and

just be yourself. life is too short to be anyone else.

Matthew 5:4
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.

OBS was awesome but once is enough. the 5day really flew past. before you know it, its time to leave. i really thank God that i had this chance to be in OBS instead of somewhere else, cause its a wonderful experience i will never ever forget.

ps. its ok if you dont read this long post cause its for my memory's sake.

day 1

I was at first reluctant to go obs because i saw samuel chaota face and i was very sure i did not want that 5 days later.
anyway, my group was called AMUNDSEN!♥ hong laoshi didnt know how to pronounce it so she went like " ah-bu-san". LOL. then when the instructor, cecilia, told us we were called amundsen, we're all laughing like shit.
we ferryed from punggol to camp 2.
actually day 1 was quite sian since it was administrative stuff all that. by the end of the day, i was alr tired and exhausted. i guess it was tough being in a new environment and doing new things. we packed our bags for expedition for tuesday to thursday. But we got to cook our own dinner and pitched our tents. i think its really amazing how the same things you do at home like cooking can also be done in nature without technology.
at night, we camped at camp 2. i slept with shuying, zhuoning and wanyi.

day 2

Early in the morning, we woke up and had to carry our 10+kg bag pack and trek to camp 1. omg i really felt like dying.we finally arrived at camp 1. omg, compared to camp 2, camp1 was really heaven. so huge. there was a swimming pool, rockwalls and stuff. the toilets were much cleaner. so after lunch, we was taught how to belay and the basics. later we rock climbed! this rock climbing was a little different because we had to climb in pairs and there was the bungee cord that links us together. i climbed with weiqi and we made it to the top with much perserverance and determination. it wasnt easy to climb because sometimes we got into each others path. but during this activity, i really could sense the start of the bond in 314. we cheered one another and even though some of us were afraid and wanted to give up, we supported and encouraged one another despite knowing each other for barely a week. it was really very heart warming.
In the afternoon we had this kayaking dry run where we were taught to capsize and the basics of paddling. i took the same kayak as xining and kailing. and later we had a pontoon(sp?) jump whichwas a mini version on jetty jump. super fun. but a bit scary cause i did not expect to sink in so deep. but its was fun fun fun.
that night we didnt need to cook cause there was canteen food. super awesome manzxczxc.
and we rested for a night in some forest.

day 3

we started off our land expedition! first time we did our own navigation and stuff. trekking was seriously no joke. we had to carry our 10+kg bagpack and trek about 13km plus the heat was killing. it was really crazy. at the start, we trek and most of us had absolutely no idea where we are going, we just followed and we got lost a few times. but we never complained or give up. joeline kept encouraging us which really which lots. sometimes i really felt like giving up and resting. but i couldnt cause i really wanted to continue and not let amundsen down. in the end we managed to arrive to meet armstrong. they were damn fast, they reached like 1h before us. we later we were supposed to reach the campsite by playing this game where we had to stand in a circle and trhow the pebble in your right hand to the person on your left while you catch the pebble from your friend on the left withouting dropping for 3 consecutive times. it may look simple but to 314, its not. we took 2.5h doing that activity but it the end we still did not manage to complete the task. for me, i was kinda disappointed yet encouraged. disappointed because we were so close to getting 3 throws but we always fail. no matter how hard we wanted to succeed, it just slipped past our fingers.
encouraged because no matter how long we stood, no one faltered. and we did not blame each other. we have not been the fastest class to complete, but we have been bonded much more.
at night we did this activity where we had to sleep on each others tummy and feel each others breathing and haizu told as a very touching story. it helped alot.

day 4

we started off early in the morning kayaking back to camp 2. it was really fun. i was at the back and xining was in the centre and kailing in front. i am so proud of chengbus and aia course we managed to arrive at camp 2 with an amazing timing of 4.5 hours. usually it takes 7 plus hours but 4.5h is really something. :)
despite the choppy seas and the the strong winds. we did it. we had to paddle like crazy cause the wind keep blowing us to the fence.
because we managed to reach early, WE GOT TO JETTY JUMP! it was really cool ok. at first when i stepped onto the platform, i was damn scared when i looked down it looked so far below. but idk why when i said 314, i love you. i didnt feel as scared. then i closed my eyes and jump. i was in mid air for super long la. then i was like eh why still never reach yet. feels damn scary. but it was so fun when i finally touched the water. although a few of us were scared. but some managed to conquer their fears. i really really think that they are very courageous to overcome their fears. good job guys!

day 5

when i woke up it was super cold, we got back our valuables and got our certs. finally there our the grand finale. thank God we were 314 so we were like the 2nd last class to perform. me and louisa were at the back desperately trying to salvage the performance and trying to ally with 313 and 315 to get them to cheer for us no matter what. in the end, althogh our performance was quite fail. but still, we completed it as a class:) it was time to go back and when we took the boat back, we were all complaining how obs wasnt long enough.

i have woken up from the best dream of my life and ive stepped back into reality. back to homework and training. they must not be the funnest things to do but i will and i can do it. i hope i will use what i learn to become a better person.
i really thank God for OBS. I was almost not allowed to go. but im so glad i did. friendships were forged and i became a much stronger person than i was. the reflections that we did really helped me think about stuff. i wanna ceciliagull and haibirdzoo for the awesome experience and their guidance. haizu is really really great at telling stories and making us think and reflect. thank you INSTRUCTORS. im sure obs brought everybody a very memorable experience.

"There's something about OBS that stays with you for life"
precious memories

after house prac,went for lunch with karen. omg amazing. we talked for 2h straight without awkwardness. more than i ever talked to her last year. yesh. i must conquer my fear of awkwardness. i felt so comfortable. and karen, im so honoured to be the first ever ONE person you ever talked to for 2 hours straight.hahaha.HONOURED. :)

it was really interesting and i thought about loads of stuff after that. thanks.

gotta pack for obs before its too late.

today was an especially nice day. first, its a slack day with only 3 lessons. next we had class bonding during free block. haha. all cat and mouse game, mrt game, and the mafia game. haha joeline is super funny. "sheryl died because she got stab....in the back....by a backstabber." LOL.
before taking mug shots, we had our very first class lunch at far east. :)although its kinda awkward, but still...CLASS LUNCH LEH.
then training was not really hardcore. :)

Although i started off the year not really enjoying it coz sometimes(or rather most of the time)the class in really too inactive and too "peaceful" and i kinda miss 204. i suddenly get a good feeling about 314 after today, and we are gonna pwn every other class manzxczxc.

so yea...looking forward to obs and an awesome time of bonding!

i feel damn lousy today. ):
its back to sqaure one.

my first day as a sec 3 is uh quite ok. i made a lot of new friends. and now my desk mate is a retarded person joeline. hahahhaha. omg im so gonna die for this whole term. :/
but in front of me is kailing, huizhen and louisa. so i guess is gonna be quite fun. :)
and i realised a lot of the 314 ppl are psls. damn scary eh.

and stupid louisa keeps wanting me to become chair. o.o
i think my ft and clet arent too bad la. i hope the same goes for the rest of the teachers. cant wait for tmr! ~

yesterday went after house comme meeting, went to watch alvin with karen and suyun. OMG the show is damn nice. ok not really. but its super cute and funny. its kinda like high school musical 2 though where zac abandons the vanessa for something. aiya you understand what i mean la. super funny the chippettes were cute too. THEY ARE NOT TRANS.
all the single ladiesssss~

i just found out my teachers for sec3. im starting to hate 2010 alr.pfft. my ft is a chinese teacher AGAIN. like wth?! 3 yrs in a row. and from past yrs experience, having a chinese teacher as ft is not a good idea. on the brighter side, VIC AND MY MOTTO IS :NOTHING IS WORSE THEN Z_ _ _ _. (person not identified to protect its identity.) go figure out yourself. awesome yea? haha. i hope this is true or my life is totally ruined. and i cant regconise like almost half the teachers who are gonna teach me. gawsh. this sucks. i hope friends will make school better.

on a brighter note, while all you little toots are chionging your holiday homework, i can slack. not because i finished mine, its simply because I HAVE NONE! :):) plus i have an extra holiday tmr for the yr1s orietation. awesome eh? I SO LOVE MY SCHOOL.

Its 2010, means school is starting like in a few days time. damn, im so not prepared for this.

time for reflections and setting my resolutions, hopefully i will keep to them.

2009:
-it went ridiculously fast. but it was really an eventful year. it was last year that i really grew like as a person. many things that i nvr really gave a thought about, i did last year. i learnt to pick myself up from failures reflect on them and then must take actions.
-Although my grades did improve, i dont think i did well enough. i must do better this year...
-met people which showed me what friends are for and im really really grateful to them. 204 have been the bestest class ever. thanks for everything. but we're all gonna move on so bye.
-i also grew closer to God through mission trip and i really learnt a lot from the trip. giving is really better then receiviong because i really gained happiness and laughter from giving.
-my obsession for super junior will still remain in 2010 :)


2010:
-yesterday ariella told me then you can be in many cliques in your life, but there has to be one 1 that makes you comfortable and the want to stay in it forever. she found it. so i hope that this year i will find the the one she is talking about.
-no more 204'09, its 314'10 :)
-responsibilities is getting more and more but i hope i will be able to cope and still do well in studies. i need to be more hardworking. no more procrastinations.
-i also hope that i will not fight with julian. i am already trying my best to mend the relationship. so i really really hope that fighting will minimise.
-keep a closer relationship with God. i must read the bible daily. and pray to Him. i need Him.
-it would also be good if i become more independent and not rely on people so much, i need to learn to not be taken advantage of too. NO I CANNOT BE SOFT ANYMORE. change for the better.
-keep my super junior obsession.

so i hope that 2010 will be a good year.

BTW ITS SUNGMIN'S BDAY TODAY. HAHA.

youth camp was fun:)
omg dragonboating was awesome. we get to attack the people from the other boat with the paddle. we also had this mini race and we won. wooohooo.
dinner was at some changi beach club. wah the place is super ulu. BUT the fooood is nice. i took like many many servings la. esp the chicken.

midnight cycling is (L)(L) highlight of the camp. our team started off like quite fast but later lag behind coz 2 ppl cant cycle and the bikes keep breaking down. toran couldnt cycle so at first he crashed into a tree and then he decided to walk the whole way which was about 17km? haha. then he said walking" was so much safer" then a few seconds later he tripped over his bike and fell. lol.
there was this stretch of road which was very straight so i thought wah damn nice to chiong but then after cycling for 30min were still cycling on the same stretch of road. but then later toran "retired" coz he still had like 10km more to run. hahaha.omg we cycled for 4hours straight and the stupid seat keep rubbing against my ass. ruijun is right for once CYCLING TAKES AWAY YOUR VIRGINITY. LOL.

later went to ariella's house to sleep before going to church. church was fun with all the actions and singing of bubbling joy. and again as usual, when its midnight, the pastor was still preaching. no countdown, nothing. we ownself do our countdown.-.-

anyway, its 2010. i shall post about my resolutions and stuff later.
