whoopee.

READ ME.

2007-02-07T20:30:00.000+08:00

That's right! Read me! cos i'm UPDATED! FINALLY!
I kinda feel sorry for my blog, actually. It's been gathering dust since nov last year, being shoved in a corner all neglected and alone while its owner, oh its treacherous owner who was being so mean as to abandon such a nice little blog like this, sat around somewhere on a holiday forgetting all about this dear thing. That's right.

But this isn't just all about that. It's about this! It's about now. It's about me getting to the point. OKAY. The past 3 months i've been gone were really jam-packed. I'll try to summarise.
- went to EUROPE for the hols! that was brilliant. terribly freezingly cold, but brilliant.
- dropped by HK a coupla days after christmas (this was before europe), that was great too! we were 30kg overweight. as in, the suitcases.
- also visited singapore! like i wouldn't. spent christmas and the later part of jan in my fave country, home sweet home. mgs is still as wonderful as ever! i miss you guys LOTS.
- back in perth to start school in AXHS.. didn't know if that was a good or bad thing at first but so far it's been pretty good, i'm not freakily-lonerish or anything. i miss yous in mc. but yeah always looking forward, don't mope too much on the past! that Chrissy message at roar really stuck in my head. hehe.
oh oh gotta go NOW. i'm doomed. mom is scolding. seeya! xxx

oh dear.

2006-12-11T22:41:00.000+08:00

I'm coming back THIS SATURDAY, how thrilling! (:
I never get used to returning-to-singapore euphoria. which is a good thing, to say the least.
Sorry i haven't been keeping up with this darned thing. well here I am!
And i know i can't forgive myself for being absorbed into such mainstream clicheness in joining myspace but it wasn't my fault! Honestly, lisa, you coulda told me before ya made my myspace for me (i didn't even know my own password! for quite a bit of time)! haha. We're going to harbourtown tomorrow aren't we, to get cons, then go for that Roar BBQ thingymabob. How exoiting (say it with me now. Brit accent, guys!). Everyone, download the song Wonderwall by Oasis. One classic no one can or should live without.
(:missyouguys.
ttfn. i'll be back in No Time.

AT LAST.

2006-10-17T23:50:00.000+08:00

Wow i'm finally reviving this blog. haha. it's been a while, eh?
Guess no one's actually reading this anymore. but ah well i like rambling on to no one anyway.(:
Math exam today. Yeah, crumminess. but it wasn't actually as bad as i thought it'd be. which was pretty bad, in hindsight. I remember myself freaking out and gripping the math book i had in my lap 10 minutes before it started. Okay i sound like some sort of nerd, but i shall now get over it.
(:
Haha. i think i was overparanoid just 'cos i didn't study much in the holidays, so yeah there you go, a valid reason! (i never usually make valid reasons, so this is a good sign.) I really am talking to myself. Is anyone out there? helloooo ?
(pause)
okay fine, no echo. bleh.

The weather's wonderful, not sure if i can say the same for s'pore though, i've been hearing rather, er, foggy things about it lately, if you'll excuse the pun. HAZE due to deforestation? haha me and cootsie were talking about this on msn just then.

Cootsie: yeah it's cos indonesia's burning trees again -- ugh
Me: gosh. what about greenpeace? what are THEY doing?
Cootsie: haha probably sitting around hugging potted plants.

Yes that's basically how it went.
Witty conversations are fun to be in.

I feel kinda formal in this post, for some unnatural reason. Probably because i've been away from the blog for so long. oh well there's still time to knit back the homely feeling! (x ich liebe meine blog. Gut, ja? gosh i think my german's dying. this is bad.
Okay i think i'd better go, feel tired... it is 12.03 midnight after all. Sleepy sleepy! I think i'll end every post with a quote from a movie. (:

Quote of the day:
Karen: "You're wearing sweatpants. It's MONDAY."
Regina: "Who cares, those rules aren't real anyway."
Karen: "They were real the day I wore a VEST!"
Regina: "That's cos the vest was disgusting."
Gretchen: "YOUCAN'TSITWITHUS!"

..i just thought that was amusing. haha. there's so much from the mean girls movie you can quote from. (: ttfn.

2006-05-22T20:52:00.000+08:00

bleahgh. midyears = this thurs! math. ugh. discrete is hard.. too many formulae, it makes my head spin. econs is alright, but i've got 0% interest in that. jap is great.(: drama's fine (realism's really getting along though it's kinda hard trying to act like you've got cancer in front of the class and attempting to make yourself cry.) english's good too, oh speaking of which - i just got back my english assignment, the narrative writing essay.

My mind was still in a whirl of hazy confusion when I woke up. The smell of uncomfortably overwhelming, and I could hear a flurry of people and machines bustling in activity around me. I felt the warmth of a hand on my arm as my parents exclaimed in relieved ecstasy. I swallowed gingerly and was greeted with the bitter taste of medicine.

But my world was still in darkness.

Terrified, I shrieked and writhed in my bed, flailing my arms and crying out as the doctors tried to pin me down. Later that day my parents sat me down and had a doctor explain everything to me.

Haha that was part of my narrative assignment. it's about this girl who was involved in a drunk driving accident and became permanently BLIND. (collective gasp in audience) and on goes the story for three pages (can't be too long for an assessment, can it), and then the character goes through the whole self-realisation development process thing. yeah.

sigh. for the upteenth time, just for the record: I MISS SINGAPORE! and the people. of course the people what am i saying sheesh amelyn and now i'm talking to myself which is kinda strange because i'm not using any punctuation either gosh yes okay i'll stop now. (:
rambling's a hobby, really.

okay seeya guys in july, i think. just for a week. ):
miss ya. -ame.

the blues . (w-ell on the contrary . . .)

2006-04-24T17:10:00.000+08:00

Is this the new year or just another night
Is this the new fear or just another fright
Is this a new tear or just another desperation

It's 'the blues' by switchfoot, courtesy of the nothing is sound album. (: i LOVE it. and the whole album, actually. the lyrics are brilliant. nearly as good as lauren's. ;)

It'll be a day like this one when the world caves in
I'm singing this one like a broken piece of glass
For broken hearts and broken noses in the back
Is this the new year or just another desperation

And y'know the funny thing is, i'm actually not sad. I'm happy! except for the homework bit. but yeah. i don't exactly know why i'm playing moody songs like this when i'm actually happy. ah well. i like the tune. that's all that matters.

You push until you're shoving
You bend until you break
Do you stand on the broken fields where your fathers lay

I got quite happily surprised the other day by a large brown envelope in my mailbox addressed to me from a bunch of rather brilliant people I know. (; THANKS LOTS PEOPLE! namely mari, minny, je, becky. (tsk you lazy person becky, yours was TYPED. haha.) you guys are truly great. i'll never forget you! hope i'm granted a miracle for me to go back & in july.. and yes, i'm writing your replies! you'll get them soon (i think) (i hope) (yeah you get the point).

AAH hols are ending in six days! that's not fair, is it. hmphy.

laur you're meant to still be online! where ARE you. hahah. miss ya lots too. i still can't access your blog! it's weird. (don't you think the spelling of the word 'weird' is weird in itself? it is, okay!) send me any songs you've written!
www.overheardinnewyork.blogspot.com
Go there.
my sis has been publicizing it lots the past week. no, it isn't her blog. haha.
okay gotta scram. seeya!
love ame.

don't really see much cream.

2006-04-13T22:43:00.000+08:00

..haha don't worry about the title. it's, er, meant to be some sort of abbreviation. (cough, deb, cough). hahaha. anyway. (:

my bday on sat! haha. mari seems highly suspicious on msn. apparently i'm going to get some form of surprise in a week but i don't see how the difference in continents might make it easier or actually possible. haha. hms. well actually mari did confirm my address just now on msn so maybe---

Is my 'strum hard drum hard' thing on the status bar annoying? haha. If it is, then it's doing its job. heh. i'm using firefox at the moment so i can't see anything unless i go on to the internet explorer default page. (yay.)

I've got this mini taster pack of short black espresso blend coffee for coffee makers. i need to do something with it. i don't even have a coffee maker! i got it at the career expo last friday. haha. from the RAC stall, would you believe.

OH MY GOSH you wouldn't believe this convo. it's hilarious!!! ((((: courtesy of deb. hahaha it involves her being blatantly outright sarcastic to this other guy on msn and he hasn't a clue. gosh. sorry if that guy comes across it. i didn't mean anything that'd offend, honest! well IF it offends, that is. heh. but yeah this is SOME stuff you've got there deb. hahaha!!

AAHHAA. ok yeah moving on. hahaha i should go now.. happy days people! (: and happy hols, that is. and easter. and good friday, of course. got a morning service in church tmr (x yay. seeya peoples! ~ame.

greetings, my fellow people.

2006-04-07T18:25:00.000+08:00

Notice the new layout? Thought you might. (:

Yes and for those who didn't get the previous post.. It was a story! an unfinished one, at that. but yeah. I have heaps of unfinished stories I need to put an end to. Oh yeah, remember to go up to shrimoyee and read her writings! They're a work of art. Pure poetry.

Yay, glad you people still read my blog! I'm all touched and everything. Sob. And I miss you guys more then ever, now.
...school's good, by the way. Got level 6 for my sose test on wed. (((:
The teachers here mark papers really fast.
Like, really.
Haha.
Just thought I'd reinforce that.

I'm free the whole of tonight, the usual Roar's not on. It's gonna be Record Night, from 7 to 7 (yes, 12 hours), where we all get on a bus and go around doing fun stuff in the middle of the night like quza (this laser shooting thing, i think that's how it's spelt anyway), rock climbing, watching a movie, paintballing? I don't know, heaps of other stuff and making pancakes in the morning! BUT BUT BUT guess what.
I can't go.
Oh, the irony.

Yeah 'cos I've got chinese class tomorrow on sat! I don't believe it. It's the last chinese lesson (assembly) so i'm not supposed to miss it. Groan. I've been missing all the lessons this whole term except for 3, so far. Amazing, eh. Nearly sets a record, it does.

But yeah.
Moving on.

...Laila's LEAVING for NZ soon! Today was her last day at school. Awww ): I'll miss her lots. Hear that, Laila? Heh. Wait I don't even think she knows my blog. Or if I have one. (laughs) Ah well no matter.

By the way, did you notice my punctuation and capitals and everything are all in order for this whole post? Amazing, eh. Except for the odd colloqual term here and there, that is. Like 'gonna', and 'cos'. It's a natural thing, almost becoming. But yeah, even all my 'i's are CAPITAL! Haha. I just felt like being all Prim and Proper. In a very odd, obscure way. Bet if I didn't point that out, you'd never have noticed. Ha.
And yes, I am rambling again.
Better get on with life and other constructive activities.

See you folks! (:
(Man, I'm starting to sound like our principal. Gosh.)

a story.

2006-03-29T19:29:00.000+08:00

It is dark. The night has swallowed the sky, leaving several telltale pinpricks of light behind. The window is dry but I feel like it's raining. Lying back on my pillow, I grant myself the small favour of allowing a few tears to escape. Shutting my eyes, I feel them going down the sides of my temples, leaving a bit of themselves behind like a wet trail. A wet trail of blood. Those words seemed like images, sharp and daunting, still fresh in my mind. Failing to soften any part of my pain, I get up and creep to the window, running my fingers along the creaky birch pane. Pushing it ever so slightly open, I slip out of the house like a vanished shadow.

Bare feet on the bitumen, well-worn and warm from the passing cars on a Tuesday night. My oversized black Salvation Army shirt flaps in the wind. The clothing I own is understated and second-hand, all from various charity organisations that were sympathetic enough to donate them; most of them still packed away neatly in my suitcase. Ignoring the horns and the
lights, I cross Colt Street and go straight down the road. Breaking into a sprint, I reach the fringe of town, the crossroad where civilisation meets nature. Running into the open arms of darkness, I lose myself in the folds of the forest.
Sinking down to my knees, I close my eyes again, willing peace to flood me, to find the serenity I was shut away from back in the apartment, Number 2 Blackmore Drive. Here in the depths of the night, I feel the breeze caress my cheek, and taste the rare treat of freedom. For a moment I let myself be released of those flashing scenes, the tormenting pictures that flicked so fast like a film before my eyes; the pictures that tortured me every day of my life since the fire.

I lie incredibly still and hear the howling wind call.
I consciously start to inhale, then exhale, my breath getting shallower with every second.
I keep my eyes open, vaguely wondering how the world looks like without breath. 17.. 18.. 19...
The stars are ablaze tonight, hazy. 25..26..
The distant thumping pulses around me, dancing before my eyes, enclosing me.. 32...33..
The stars start to extinguish, one by one, then the sky suddenly seems bright again, glaring, even. 35.. Piercing and penetrating, almost unearthly. 39... 40..
Falling. The earth beneath me caves in, and i hold on to my consciousness. 46.. 47..
Pain, ever so slight, so faint that when it comes hard I am unprepared for it.

..I gasp, the sweeping, saturated air saving my withering lungs. Sitting up, I watch and feel everything shake and whirl in all its haphazard technicolour. My mind drifts; my gaze unfocuses. And I stay sitting there for a long time, as long as the world can hold me.

2006-03-22T21:02:00.000+08:00

My grandfather had a stroke today.

My aunty called this morning.
He's in SGH now.
My mom says he doesn't like hospitals.

On Monday before I left singapore, I told my grandfather I wanted to be a doctor. It kinda felt like a spur-of-the-moment thing but I just felt I'd like being a doctor. My mom disapproved because it took around 7 years to complete a course, my grandmother approved and said then I could give her free checkups, and my grandfather said, 'Saving lives is what matters, not the money. If you have that mindset, I'll be supporting you all the way.' I understood, and I knew then what I wanted to do.

That was the last thing he said to me.

I really hope he gets well.
All that it takes
is
a little
faith.

christmas is over.

2005-12-28T00:15:00.000+08:00

Christmas is over (it says so up there too).

We had church camp last week from sun to wed, it was alright. i got really dirty! haha. GB camp site is rather.. er.. .let's just say we did a skit on the reactions of people who saw the campsite. No further comments.
[ok it wasn't as bad as it sounds, i'm exaggerating. (: ]
Foxtrot uniform charlie kilo.
Oh gosh that's the best song ever. ((: get it NOW. it's extremely random though, mind you. it's by the bloodhound gang, but no it's far from any heavy metal music. no siree. check out the lyrics, they're amusingly amusing. And my sis thought for an age that 'my intent though' was 'my nintendo'! haha. thanks to my older sis who notifies me on great songs like these. (x
Oh by the way, alessia's coming over to singapore!! yay. for five days. ((: that's awesome aye. it'd be fun to show her around. wheee. and i'll be visiting mgs in the first week of school. rachel (cousin) is entering P1 in MGS next year! so cute. haha.
GAH it's late.12:57am in the morning. don't know what the blog clock says but that's the time now.. fatigue is kicking in. i'm very anti-coffee, so i think i'll just head off to sleepland. (:
ok seeya people in the morning.. nah i doubt i'll be doing blogging in the morning. i'd be checking out the new maplewoods gym with mom. I MISS MAPLEWOODS. returning on the 16th.

BUT it's been incredibly fun from the day i stepped into singapore. wheee. and alessia's coming on the sixth or the ninth or something, it's gonna be awesome. I STILL HAVEN'T finished eating everything delectable in singapore that's worthy of my stomach space (which is technically everything). <3

Oh and download Love Them Like Jesus by Casting Crowns, courtesy of laur (((:.. gahh laur sorry i can't call cos MY SISTER is using the phone!! gah. see once we get our credit, everyone rushes for the phone. blagh. anyway. it's around eight thirty now, she should get off by nine. hopefully. (:
AGH i need to practise piano! really badly!! firstly cos my sight-reading is still as horrible as ever and i have to play for carols in the quad tomorrow. i'm doomed. i've got to sight-read a gazillion pages of christmas carols right there in front of an audience. how fun. bleghh. :/
..But looking back on everything (all the turbulence from the start of this year right through till now), I think i've come a long way. And now life is pretty smooth.
Life will be, for those who believe..
+ playing Fix You by Coldplay +
..I'm in a quiet mood now. A serene, tranquil veil hovering over this house. Don't mind my sudden lack of colloquialism. (x that's just me i guess, prone to sudden changes in writing style because of mood. Odd.
Alright i think i should go now, my sister's got off the phone. I think. I'll update again soon.
Coming back in 12 days! yay. today's the last day of november, i've just realised. the 30th. It seems like Jan 19 was only yesterday or something. Yes, time whisks by faster than what life can catch up with. And my life's probably currently still somewhere back in March or something. ...well ok not really. Today's one of the rare days I feel exceptionally different perspective-wise. I'm putting Fix You on repeat now. haha. and I've said earlier i think i should go, so i think i should. Well miss you guys heaps, can't wait for church camp from 18th to 21st (:, and my glorious ONE MONTH stay in singapore. :D that should be fun, especially when everyone's (finally) got the same holiday in december..

Help. I'm drowning.
No not really, actually. Injured, maybe. not physically. you know what i mean.
..do you?
Those words hit and hurt me so much that the tears wouldn't stop coming.
In fact
They still are.
Maybe that's why I'm drowning.

...Who am I?
Someone tell me that.

sorry seems to be the hardest word

2005-11-06T12:49:00.000+08:00

Today is Sunday the 6th of November, 2005, at exactly 12.49 noon in Applecross, Perth.

Just thought you might like to know that.

Anyhow. Loads of things have been happening! Fuel on tues was awesome, it was great seeing so many rushing up to register. There's auditions for the drama production 06 on tues (in 2 days!) and guess what, i haven't started memorising my lines yet. haha. And i've gotta sing a 70's song as well! Gah. Hence the title of this post. I think i'll be singing that song. I mean really, I can't sing anything else on that list they gave. 'I will survive' is way too high for those who know me & my vocal range. cough. And come on, 'hot stuff' isn't gonna work all too well isn't it. haha. AHWELL. yeah so that's happening on tues, and friday is lisa's bday ((:, yet's have a 2-people celebration at Roar on fri heheh... Sigh i didn't go yesterday, so yeah I want to come next week. ..but then i suddenly realised this morning that the Darkly Beautiful showcase is on fri as well!! Aah! Both at 7.30pm. And i think this really brings me to that Roar talk on choices we had last last fri, it really makes sense to me now that i'm facing one of those situations. I'll be looking around for people who want to buy my Darkly Beautiful ticket tomorrow.. SORRY nadia / annielyn / ETC who are in the showcase!! i'll give you my love and good luck's on fri in school yeah. (; you guys will be great.

Haha church was great today, pastor Ken made a really good sermon. (the topic was money & giving for the works of God)
"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth... But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven... for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." [Matt 6:19] We should place value in the people and the purposes, not the possessions. And another thing I found true is that no one can serve two masters (matt 6:24). Either he will hate one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. you can't serve both God and $. (See how it says that you can't serve, not can't have. The problem doesn't lie in the money itself but in peoples' love for money. $ was created for God's works, it is the provision for the vision. The money serves us (for kingdom works) but we serve God. People who are bound to money serve money, which means they don't serve God because our heart's got not enough room for two masters, especially if one of them's God. So I guess the sermon was trying to say that we should place our $ where God wants his purposes to be fulfilled, for that is where our heart will be. AHH i love scc! hahah. it's an incredible church that will do such great things, i can sense it already.

To-Do list:
1. Read up on eng hw to prepare for in-class essay next week.
2. Math applications!!! Bleagh it's too tedious for words.
3. Remember lines for audition (both Kathy and Jane parts).
4. Audition ractice @ arisa's (Kardinya) in 3 hours' time.
5. Memorise lines for SOSE play on fri!
6. Download the songs written down on the piece of paper somewhere under my table.
7. Sell Darkly Beautiful ticket.
8. Get Lisa a present (:
9. Call laur.
10. Write (and post) letters to laur, jia en, lian, nadia, cootsie, etc!
11. Oh yeah, study for science test (it keeps getting postponed! haha).
12. Pray for deb's O's! & the SaveTheHumans thing. & everyone doing their TEE on mon, poor people!
13. Tidy up room.
14. Memorise lyrics for Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word.
15. QT.
16. Go jogging / cycling! I'm feeling more and more unhealthy by the minute.
17. Practise piano pieces & aural (sight reading = a lost cause.)
18. Water the blasted green beans out in the back (science project, don't ask).
19. Remind myself that there's Roar understudy for the music team on tuesdays at 7pm.
20. Take my antibiotics.

Haha wow that's a lot, hey. (x Haha well then i'd better get cracking. You guys enjoy your hols alright? don't forget meeee! haha. seeya in dec!

breakthrough

2005-10-15T17:52:00.000+08:00

You are God
You are God of miracles
You're the God who makes me whole
I will worship
I will worship You

..Friday night's Roar was incredible. It really blew me away..
Dave Reardon was doing the talk (it was awesome btw), he's like the state christian youth ministry leader for WA, and it was really fantastic.. it was about wrestling with God as Jacob did in Genesis 32 for blessing ("I will not let you go unless you bless me"), & get beyond just doing the usual scraping-the-surface christian thing and go deeper into where God's at & being the 'BMW' christian.. haha that was funny, his story. (; But yeah i reckon that was one of the BEST preachings i've ever heard and i think God spoke to me that night, as in seriously spoke, and i dunno where the tears came from but they came and i was just overwhelmed.. it was amazing. and now i really feel that we should try to wrestle God and pray as hard as we can for the lost people out there who don't know God, that we should wrestle for our friends, our schools, our unsaved generation. On friday this whole thing just came upon me and after that i just felt totally changed and renewed like God has cast off all my burdens and is saying, "come wrestle Me for I want you to use your strengths to go forth in this world and spread the love and glory of Heaven and feel the revelation of satisfaction in righteousness"... and the worship on friday, the music, was incredible, especially the one to whom the lyrics up there belong to.. AWESOME i tell you. i went on a fast today; i believe this is the breakthrough God has been planning for me. i really really want others to feel how i have felt, and to see what i have seen, and to run the great race with God all the way to the finish line.
I LOVE ROAR, those who wanna come please come! (((: it's a fantastic youth thing, love it to death..(: At the Melville civic centre's 'The Vault' on fridays at 7.45pm to 9.30-ish.. but next friday we're going to go to the melville aquatic centre for games and fun and all that, i reckon it's gonna be brilliant as always... [to lisa~ are you gonna bring anyone to next fri's? i reckon i am, hey. do we have transport? haha reply in the tagboard k, if you're reading this..]
..today i just had church prac at the Fuller house (they have a drumset!) & yeah to practise for the music part of the children's takeover outreach next next sunday.. i bet i'm gonna forget all the drumrolls by tmr.. gotta get to church at 8am tmr to prac some more.. and music auditions! oh yeah. must remember that.
Well anyway with all this talk of church.. one other thing to say is that I STILL LOVE CCMC!! lovelovelove. (: my church for practically a million years & will never forget it as long as i live.. haha. love you laur, deb, pris, sulin, grace, etc etc ((((: go OC.. can't wait for church camp, when's it again? i can come back in time for it now cos they just said that the school term will be ending on the 9th of dec instead of the 16th.. so it's less rushed.. whee. i insist we have an 'over! haha. after the church camp that is. (x
...just found out, we're having the great chinese takeout for dinner (the restaurant is right across the road from our house) so we're ordering from there.. the sweet&sour chicken is spectacular. haha.. and my fast is over now, it was from 9am to 5pm (i originally wanted to do a whole day, but then shortened it down to 12h and then shortened it again to 8h cos my mom was going on about not having enough nutrients).. so i can eat the chicken after all! haha. but it's curious that i wasnt hungry the whole day since i woke up (at eight thirty hehe) without having anything to eat (so many temptations!! namely mee siam, chips and pancakes).. it's God that gave me the power of drive and determination, something i rarely have when it comes to abstaining from food x)...
..oog just remembered, i've got auditions in week 5.. for the drama production next year called Disco Inferno.. hope i get in ('hope' is such a fragile word, isn't it. fragile but powerful!) .. haha if you wanna see the audition pack for fun it's at www.mcdrama.com, under Downloads... i've gotta sing some 70's song like Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word or something, oh dearrrr. why must it have to be a musical?? haha but ah well they say they have acting parts with no singing so i'll go for that i suppose..
hm i'll go set up some prayer list in my templates now. (: seeya!

the start of spring

2005-10-06T20:26:00.000+08:00

So the winds have blown, the rains have swept, the stars have streaked. It's not been an easy ride these few days, even with the lack of exams. But what doesn't kill you makes you stronger (or so I've heard) and yeah, i reckon things will turn out alright. (: They always do, in the end.

Right?

Ah well. Anyway. The positive side of the hols.
1. last week went really fast! This week is, too. The saturday (24th sept) i landed in singapore (we arrived at 9pm!) i went to laur's to sleepover [or as deb calls it, an 'over. haha.].. proceeded to go out with laur & deb & their corresponding counterparts to plaza sing. the next day (ate @ gelare, watched Cinderella Man and talked)...then over the next few days i went to watch Brothers Grimm with my sis and (cough) her yr11 friend (coughs again), tour orchard road, meet jiaen at btp and talk ourselves to death, visit mgs at blackmore for recess with them lot (:, meet lk for lunch @ billy bombers, go for an awesome gig with cootsie, play piano at grandfather's bday (eightieth!), stay back after church with laur stranded at the bamboo court cos of the rain with nothing but her guitar and my camera, take loony pictures (correction: LOTS of loony pictures), neoprints galore, watch corpse bride with sisters, have the wackiest time with deb criticising the health foods in the supermarket, have the longest phone convo with je (x, etc etc etc... it's been really fulfilling these few days (minus the weird negative feelings lurking somewhere in the background).. (((: i'll miss all you singaore folks when i leave this sunday.. haha midnight flight! yawwnnn i'm getting tired already. hm what time is it now? nine pm? oh gee. better go do hw (which wll always end up with me going on msn instead) haha... seeya! ~ame xxxx

2005-09-18T01:15:00.000+08:00

...yesterday's Roar was great.. with the whole Save the Humans talk thing, that was great. it made me think about how the world needs saving, how many people have lost souls that are just waiting to be extinguished, if we as christians don't extend the hand that leads them to eternal salvation... sigh it's hard though, eh. ah well trying is never a failure.

anyway. did anyone hear of my newfound resolution (though i'm kinda late, if it's for chinese new yr)? i'm gonna be anti-vague! especially in my posts. well for now at least. haha. ((:
..yesterday (fri) was highly slack, as we all know student development days are. Groan. how does a maths workshop, career video and eportfolio-making sound to you? Oh-so-terribly fun, isn't it. *cough* nothing particularly amusing there, apart from the fact that we watched a shakespeare video (taming of the shrew, whee haha) & moved tables from B block to the YDC (yes, all of them) & i got extremely startled by sam's yelling-into-my-ear-to-make-me-freak-out tactic. Yeah, that was basically about it for yesterday.
..in the transition of fri to sat (around 12+am) i woke up suddenly and a whole lot of memories of mgs and ccmc and singapore started pouring into my head and yknow, when memories start pouring into your head like that you can't help but lose a few tears. well, more than that actually. sighh. i ended up writing in my diary till about 1-2 am. And here I am, starting to feel it again, to feel the pulse of sadness trickle into the crevices of my heart. Scenes from mgs, my home for seven years, are flashing by at a crazy pace. I've caught glimpses of the sec 1 camp, note-passing, laughing at lame private jokes, getting killed by mrs ong for playing that locking-each-other-out-of-class game, Making The Grade, the P4 elements, the scrabble club (:, canteen nasi briyani, 2 months in clementi, the trusty mg shorts.... AGH i'm gonna self-combust about now. spontaneously.
BOOM.
...but even explosions can't cure emptiness, can it. Not really. That emptiness will start to hang over you like a dead shadow, limp and weary but still clinging on, feeding on the painful memories that lie in fragments like a broken glass.
Okay i'm going to stop being / sounding weird now. oh dear it's 1:26pm now, i'm doomed if i don't go to sleep cos there's church tomor--- today.. yawn i'm gonna go to sleep and forget about all this. I hope things in singapore have been well.. i miss singapore. or did i already say that? Oh well you can't really get tired of saying that you miss the very place you've been for your whole darned life, only to leave it to go to perth and still feel occasionally miserable and sad. not that anything's really bad about perth or anything; everything's allright &----
oh crud mom = yelling = i'm dead seeya>

sorry if this post has disturbed you in a weird, minimalistic way.

be my escape

2005-09-14T00:15:00.000+08:00

..that's a song by Relient K, by the way. Be My Escape.

I'm in a weird mood today. You can sort of tell, by the way I'm using this font, when I usually use those crisp simple fonts. Well i'll tell you, I'm feeling complicated today. Hence the Times New Romans.
...This will not be a humorous post. It is going to be a dark, gloomy, vague sort of post, with no frivolous spelling mistakes, colloquial language, and the like. For once in my life, I am going to be SERIOUS.
*
By the way, those people out there having intensely queer sort of moods, please listen to:
1. the abovementioned song, Be My Escape.
2. 24 by Jem. [love the violin]
3. Clarity by John Meyer. [the best easy-listening song alive]
4. Gifts and Curses by Yellowcard (spiderman 2 soundtrack).
5. Fly Away by Corrine May.
*

...The road we're all heading, it all leads somewhere, does it not. No road is a dead end. Well not a real dead end anyway. Some thorny bushes or smog or something, hindering the way, but it's just a matter of getting through it. Yes, simple as that.
..then here I am wondering why life doesn't feel as easy as it sounds. How odd is that. Very, I should say. But I shan't get into that whole conscience talk again (refer to previous post). Anyhow. My road is covered in quite a bit of debris that mainly consists of homework, school, matters of the mind, matters of the heart, matters of the stomach,thoughts of singapore, tragic reminiscence, etcetera etcetera. You get the idea.
...sigh folks I think i'm going to sleep now, it's 12 plus and it's in the middle of the week (tues to be exact) (no it's wed now, since it's past midnight). Sorry if i've inflicted any emotional anguish of any sort on the reader of this post, I know it sounds dreadfully blagh and very unlike me. Hm actually I'm not that now, it always helps to talk about problems. Even if it's on a blog. And even if i'm being very very vague about it. Well whoever catches my drift, catches my drift, and whoever doesn't, well try to. No on the other hand, don't try to. Really.
Ok i'm going to drop dead now due to lack of sleep so yeah, seeya.

at lasttttt, a post. (:

2005-09-11T22:47:00.000+08:00

haha hey folks. Yesyes, long time no blog, we all know that don't we. haha. I couldn't access ANYTHING for blogger since, oh i don't know, the stone age, maybe. Ah well all that's a thing of the past since i'm here now and that's all that counts. (:
SO. it's been a month! haha and today is sept. 11, so i'll just give my regards to America for one solemn minute.

.
.

...k haha so how's everyone been going along with their own lives? (; i miss you guys a lot a lot a lot. Lots, in fact. haha... coming back on the 24th!
...ack, lots of things have been happening, haven't they.. especially in church!! haha everything only starts happening when i'm gone, it's quite depressing. x) ah well, keep me updated, ain't wanna live in the pasttt!
(listening to Corrine May's songs now >> yes je they're nice songs! haha i still can't access her site though, you need the darned flash thing and i haven't exactly any time to download it) ..things here have been allright so far, though there have been some anticipated disappointments and tragic moments. Coughhhh, to people who actually comprehend what i'm talking about.. should i try to salvage the situation or leave it? sigh. it's not a 'why' question, it's a 'how' question. haha don't mind me, i'm getting into one of those metaphorical rubbishy moods now, someone give me panadol or something (like that helps anyway). aaaaaaaaaaagggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (releases tension)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHHH i've just committed one of the worst mistakes in my life. ah well. it's bound to be disastrous anyway. hm ok now it's not that bad. i hope not. haha. don't mind my rambling, whoever's reading this, i'm just going on and on about weird things that don't make sense half the time. If anyone wants to waste 10 minutes reading someone's absurdly vague train of thought, come to my blog. haha.. hey it's not cold now. amazing. it was pretty much freezing yesterday, though winter's supposed to be ending and spring's supposed to be coming out nowww. COME OUT, SPRING.
(pause)
Okay, it needs more time.
haha. so yeah i hope the darned pollen will stay away from me and don't get me into sneezing fits or whatever you get when pollen comes afloating past your nose. haatchooo.. or is it hachoo? or ha---ha----ha----CHOOO--OOOPS I JUST REMEMBERED I GOT HOMEWORK. that's (unfortunately) due tomorrow. how sad is that. (very sad) (ok that's my conscience talking) (hi conscience) (hi) (oh heavens i have a feeling i'm going high) (yes that's right) (you agree with me, conscience?) (yes I do) (oh ok) (ok) (uh conscience?) (yes) (i think you have to go now cos i wanna finish up this post) (aw well whoever's reading this, hi i'm amelyn's conscience) (er) (ok ok i'm going) (ok me too then) (ok see ya folks!) (yeah seeya! let's go, conscience.) (ok) (ok)

haha long time no post (x

2005-08-02T19:02:00.000+08:00

Hey, long time no post.. hahah...
Changed my template at last, first time in what, almost a year? haha. sorry becky! but the apple skin is my fave out of the rest haha.. (((x
Things here are all right i guess, it's still cold but now there's more sunlight and stuff. It feels weird to feel hot and cold at the same time; what with having the sun shining hard on you and then have this strong cold wind blast from nowhere.. singapore is, um, consistent, at least. haha... but it'd be nice to have wind in s'pore i guess.
(Mainly irrelevant) things that have happened over the course of the first 3 weeks of school~~~:
* passed up my P.E. report (yeah there is one!)
* principal honor roll breakfast last wk.. nothing much, just 1.5h of eating politely and listening (or trying to listen, anyway, given my relatively short attention span) to this, uh, intriguing speech. cough. haha.
* got math sub teacher = mrs dwyer = ack = got substituted for a while by another math sub teacher = mr akilan = not as ack = got mrs dywer back = ack again.
* dropped drum lessons!!!!!!!! x((((((((((((( aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!!! cos my mom wants me to focus on my piano, for some apparent reason. and it's pretty ex, the lessons. SOBB.
* drama was boring today, cos mr robertson was busy @ murdoch uni planning the college drama production (i've got tickets for this thurs, looking forward to it! haha it's gonna be a melodrama, i've heard. Arsenic and Old Lace, it's called; full of murder and black comedy. sounds good, doesn't it? xP ), so we've got this sub drama teacher who made us sit silently (which we were not) and read the Taming of the Shrew (which we were not) for the whole hour (which we could not). [i could have sworn he introduced himself as Mr. Flexible; didn't really get his name and didnt want to ask anyway because he saw me drawing on my lit book instead of reading it, haha. what a FUN drama teacher, i'll warrant.]
* the goings-on that have something to do with that of a certain undersea echinoderm, for those who know what i'm saying *haha*, are nothing at the moment, i assure you. haha. and will never be, judging from my wonderfully accurate (i think) predictions. hahah.
* the kung fu hustle movie is coming out here now! it came out in s'pr last year right? oh well. not gonna spend A$11.50 to watch it now, am i. i wanna watch batman begins though!! grrr. heard from everyone who watched that it's a good show. i reckon it'll be better than Fantastic 4..
* doing badminton for PE now, yay ((; ..ok that was quite random.
....oh hey i gotta go now, see ya people later! (x hope i post again soon. and sorry about the tagboard (or the lack of it); tag-board.com is apparently unaccessible to my blasted com so will try later.. seeya! ---ame

Why does this happen?
Why do some friendships live beneath such crashing waves?
..the other side of some are beginning to show.
But is it their real side? I really dunno.
And I can tell you, it isn't easy. It's sad. Very sad, sometimes. To see things you've been so familiar with for years, come crumbling down like it was never strongheld in the first place.
..In retrospect, time doesn't really count when it comes to building social issues. right?
I don't really understand all these things that others are saying, all this come-and-go, all this talk and rumours and lies and argument. Someone should just pull the plug and let this world go dark.
But then there's always the silver lining, right. It's bound to be there somewhere, buried in that lot of deep dark anguish. Those are what people live for. what I live for. But then to get to this hope, it's the pits till then. A hard journey, it is. Real tough. And sometimes you wonder if you're ever gonna make it through, cos everything suddenly just doesn't seem right. Seriously. And that's the part I don't understand; when you're almost there and reaching for the reward, your lose your ground and you fall to the bottom. I really don't get how that works, how you try your hardest to keep everything together while everyone else seems like they don't care about the sentimental values in life. I really don't get that. Or am I the only one in this lost world that actually thinks of these sorta things. Yknow, maybe it's just me, being too paranoid, sensitive, sentimental and depressed.
Or maybe it's reality. Which is the hardest part to accept, really. When I came back, everything seemed different. Some others still stayed with the same familiarity from when I first knew them and all that, which is a comfort. Really, i'm glad that we still have that, even though I come back like only about 3-4 times a yr. I really appreciate that, thanks guys.
But yknow. Things don't stay the same forever. They've gotta change, even if it's worse for me, or anyone else for that matter. It's just unsettling to find that it happens really fast, too soon for me to keep track of what to hold on to and what to let go of.
This complicating world is sometimes maybe too much for me to handle. But i'll keep going, for the sake of that silver lining. And God, of course. Will just be counting the little things. (((;

First period today was jap.. did some worksheet thing. haha.
Next was math, was mostly sleeping through it so didn't really think much.
Period 3.. uh i think art? drawingggg. oh the life. (x
Then sose (history-cum-geog, it's put in one sub).. i'd name it histography if i were the person who did this weird abbreviation thing.. society and environment i thinkk.
Then last period was english, which was pretty slack. (cough) ate during class.. i was hungry! yknow those nice sugary strip things. ((x haha.. we were like passing the packet around and *coughing* them into our mouths. Whoa, were the teachers oblivious.
..today ended early, at 2.40 instead of 3.40.. then had german -- tuition, you can call it that, @ alessia's house.. deutsch!! haha. then it was 4.40 and i ate those spicy-like crunchy biscuity things that my mom had in the car. it tastes great, those things. (((:
WEll ok i shalt stop being random now. but i'm not gonna be sensible either, cos tis gonna end here.. the post, that is. ok hope reading this hasn't wasted your time! haha i'm being lame in here. very. ok well enjoy your hols (luckyy) and be happy! go forth and spread peace and goodwill to all men in ---- ok i shall stop that now. ok missing ya to pieces... ~ame.

SATURDAY POST (x

2005-05-28T23:05:00.000+08:00

Hey how's everything people? i haven't been posting in ages, i kNOW. well sort of right? haha..
OII and you blasted people! it's hols already and why aren't you people online? Well not most of you, anyway. tskk! Go online. now. Ame's orders. (:
...life here, if you guys wanna know, is quite ok.. got a rather stable church now; South City Church (SCC) which is really near my applecross (i'll just say applx cos that's how it's said in short form, haha).. And the youth service on fridays called Roar, is really good too.. ((: hallelujah to the Lord for giving me guidance to a church! Oh did you guys hear that awesome song; it's on the new hillsongs cd..
Our God
Is an awesome God, he reigns
From heaven above with wisdom
Power & love
Our God is an awesome God
It sounds GREAT.. and there are some other incredible songs in there like Salvation Is Here and What the World will Never Take. ((((: i highly suggest you get it! haha x))) oh well it really is good.
..I just had chinese tuition today in the morning, at that Leeming chinese school thing... just discovered that WE HAVE ORAL & COMPO NEXT WEEK! darned tuition, didn't know it had exams!! and then next next week we have the blasted written exam. haha and i'm worried cos MY CHINESE IS THE PITS man. And when i mean the pits, i mean right down that abyss to the bottom. I'm doomed.
..school's ok, pretty good i might say, except for the fact that i haven't done my math technical sheet, science research for presentation and that i'm gonna get back my sad hist essay thing (on ww1) back next week.. i doubt the results would be pretty... aaaah!
went to watch starwars 3 today with nadia & emily (kaylah + alessia went off earlier).. SO BORING OK!!!! we left after 1 hour (we still had another unbearable 1.5h to go!!).. & i never watched the first few Starwars things so i didn't really understand.. but it's not really good. the scriptwriting was pretty bad too. I mean, it's so stiff and not into the movie. Overall it was just bad!! and i wasted my free-movie ticket!!! haha.. but the day was fun, i reckon. (x garden city is biggg. and only 1 storey but still big. if it had multiple storeys, it'd be massive..
..how's singapore going? good? hot? ((x
Things i miss in spore: mgs, all the friends (:, meepok with all the chilli, maplewoods, CHAI TAO KUAYY, orchard, ccmc, laksa, esplanade, durians (a bit), singlish (i think), did i say mgs?, the fact that i can never get bored in s'pore, national day fireworks (yes i do miss that!), the great high-rise everythings, yoshinoya, & the whole general familiarity about it. sigh.
Hey i gotta go sleep... got church tmr ;).. so God bless, take care & don't forget me k?
--Missing the whole sunny island and everything on it(including you!), ame..

20th may posttt!!!

2005-05-20T23:01:00.000+08:00

HEY!! sry for late reply!!
I was busy, I tell you. haha..
Well anyway. How's everything in s'pore and stuff?
Hope the exams bring good results yeah..
& remember that the results don't result in the end of the world.. test marks don't mark the end of time.
Haha doubles! Both nouns and verbs, but the same word. ((: heheh i analyse too much.
Here is cold. brrrr.
Tis autumn now.. freeeeeeeeeeezing though!! haha..
Got detention today for not bringing the school formal jacket. x(
It's some weird school rule thing. If you don't bring the jacket for the first 2 periods, you get detention or something.
GAH. haha but detention is just sitting there doing nothing and missing lunch.
But i was drawing. hahah. so wasn't all that yawnful. (:
There was this tornado thing pretty recently! It missed our house (whew) but a few streets away roofs were blasted off and cars were wrecked and all of that. Scary hey..
Sighh. I am now at the point of time where life feels strange and unfamiliar.
Life=School. Rain. Home. Sleep. Disappointment. Math homework. Drama. Wish upon a star. Fishes in the sea. The hope for a cat/dog. Self-combustion. Feeling of impending doom. Overseas phone calls. Sparse msn convos. Night contact lenses. Frek weather. Nearly-dead blog. 20 minutes to school. Career options. Momentary happiness. Doubt. Worry. Liability to be unpredictable when you least expect it.
..and if you look closely at what i've written, you'd notice a hidden meaning. ((: no more hints there.
Haha.. well good luck too all of you for, uh, everything that needs luck that is.. take care, be happy and don't forget me yeah! ((: missing you all to pieces. ---ame.

2005-03-10T09:08:00.000+08:00

hey you people. x))))
what's up...? April's coming fairly soon, if i say so myself. Darn it i dunno if i'm coming back... ;(( miss ya!!
So how's life? i like asking that, don't mind me. I'm typing this in the com lab, cos i've finished my assignment and can do virtually anything. except play games... the school coms are installed with this program to deny access to any game sites or email sites or anything that's not related to research... and no, i can't do research on game sites. how sad is that. *noooooooooooo.... miniclipsssss!!!* haha.
Is it just me, or is the weather gettin' colder? i think it is. the weather is unpredictable; sometimes cold somemtimes hot. at least you know the general weather in s'pore... haha.. is it still sweltering? i have this vision that everyone is lying on the streets and gasping for breath and dehydrating slowly like half-dead fish. x)) 'okayyy,' you think.
Oh gtg now, so tag and tag again and beeeee happy! :)
---------ame.rmbr me ok? x) you must you must.

another day..

2005-03-07T19:39:00.000+08:00

Haha sorry people if my font was miniscule. the stupid com.. And i didn't check my blog for ages, to change it. heheh. Anyways. What's happening over here....
1. Homework!! Agh.
2. More homework last week cos today (Monday) is a school hol.. don't ask why, it just is. haha.. 3. No time to reply emails yet... sorry!! i don't think i will have any time till the April hols, at this rate. haven't even unpacked most of the stuff in my room. sheesh to me!
4. I, as usual, miss everyone to infinities and will do so until the end of time... sighsigh..
5. I think i'm drinking more milk and eating more bread here. they sell bread by the large loaves and we eat bread for breakfast every morn... dunno why i'm not sick of it yet. In s'pore i get sick of the bread *no offense to the wonderful, powderful singapore*. heh.
6. Don't have singlish much now...did i have singlish to start with? haha i dunno la. Aha! LA. i said it! Go me. ok singlish is bad but still. x))) fun to say when you're deprived of it here.
7. May come back in april... MAY... hope x10000.. sighs again. *gloom*

hmms i'll just stop here at seven cos it's my lucky number, but i know i'm not supposed to be superstitious and all that, and i'm not, but i just like certain numbers more than others (aka 7) and therefore i proclaim 7 as my ultimate lucky number, aand sry i'm rambling as usual, don't mind me.. oh no a fly is flying round and round and looks like a circling bomber jet and is gonna kill me and the flies here are huge, compared to that of singapore, and they have big red eyes and are buzz really loud in your ear and you're afraid that it'll crawl in and lay eggs and then maggots will start pouring out and oh no i am talking about utter nonsense now so i shall resist the forces of talking and will stop. right. HERE. x))
Haha sorry for that. i was just getting hyper. Anyways, gotta go for now, see ya later and be happy ok? x))) when you're happy, you laugh and laughter is the best medicine and all that, and it is scientifically proven by ME... 'moohahaha', quoted from becky.. read my MSN username! All right i can't keep stalling like this. if i gtg, i really gtg, so gtg!
--ame. *oh no tmr is school!!*

sad sad sad

2005-03-01T20:56:00.000+08:00

The sun is behind a cloudless blue haze. Dust on the road swirls onto the pavement.
No heat, no rain. Plain walls, messy table.
Nothing much.
Another day: long or short, i'd have to live it to find out.
The faded photos are stored away, far far away.
There was no space to bring them.
A dormant sadness stirs awake, trying to grasp at memories with untangible hands.
Everything seems dim now; the fog swirls in.
The bed spring creaked as I sat, waiting for something to hold on to, something
That wouldn't go as soon as it came.
Distant laughter echoes down the hall as my mind wanders.
Smiles surround me, drifting apparitions.
Glimpses of the past.
My eyes are wet.
The blank paper calls. Relieve me.
I had found a way.
As I pick up my pen, the words flow in ease.
The fog has lifted.

in Aus, as you all know haha

2005-02-21T17:44:00.000+08:00

School's fine, but a bit lonely when you don't see the best friends of your life everyday anymore. :(((( and it's sad when you don't know anyone and you're new and all... and my whole class has very little new people, and v little asians.... agh all aus people... and would you believe only 7 girls in the class out of 20. GAHHHHHH save meeee!!!!! the class is boisterous all day and it's hardly like singapore. In s'pore everyone pays attention to the teacher, or at least pretends to do so, or else the teacher will murder. (sorry teachers i'm not offending you, am i?) In aus, however, everyone in class talks and talks and raises their hands to tell the teacher a joke that's not relevant to the lesson. But the good part is that you get to laugh a lot, the teachers are nice and you won't get manslaughtered all the time.... but i think if i had a choice to either stay here or go back to s'pore, I'D GO BACK. Seriously. I don't care about the exams or whatever... i want my friends by my side.... eating recess... walking home... going to orchard... SIGHHHHHHHHH H H... it's different here.
Oh btw shops all close at 5pm. FIVE PM!! so early eh. you can hardly go out after school, only if you wanna watch a movie. which costs A$11, for a weekday... ex ex ex!! so you can't go often.. .and they're still showing movies Lido showed like ages ago, like Ladder 49 and stuff...i miss orchard rd.. and mgs... and home..
Y'know when someone here mentions "school", my mind immediately has a pic of MGS... it will forever be the best and greatest school of all time and i'll never forget it.. tell all the teachers i really really miss em. well, most of them anyway.. koff koff. haha...
So God bless, take care and don't forget me ya... hopefully not, haha... smile, rmbr that i miss ya and do well for all ze exams and tests! >>will post again soon *i think*, ame....

The Final Day

2005-01-19T08:29:00.000+08:00

I never knew this day would actually come.
Here I am. Sitting in the computer section of the airport lounge, which is filled with lots of working business people who are occasionally staring at me cos 1. i'm younger and 2. this is a business class com section and i don't think i'm supposed to be here, and 3. my keyboard is making lots of noise when i'm typing this. There's a glass of orange juice next to me (am i allowed to bring drinks in??) and i'm feeling rather depressed.
Gonna miss you all.
I'll never forget you people; even the memories of the past years flash vividly in my mind as I'm saying this...

To Je and Lian: I'm gonna miss you two like loads.... a trio we will still be. ;) thanks for being there for me always...Help me get the Taufik CD? haha if you can... :) Besties forever ya? Don't forget me...

last goodbye

2005-01-18T19:35:00.000+08:00

The Last Goodbye.
Well not really the last, cos i'm gonna be typing one last post in the airport tmr before I go... don't forget me ya? All you great people who have made my life in MGS for the past 7 years 2 wks such a brilliante experience.. THANK YOU!!! love all of you niceys out there.
All of time and space can't measure up to what i'm feeling now. How many times i've felt sad these 2 weeks. 2 weeks... 2 glorious weeks, ten wonderful weekdays (aha.. aliteration),, six and a half hours of marvelous school time a day, half an hour a fun period... ssssssssssssigh.
As I walk from here,
Today unto tomorrow
Do not see me fade in my
Sorrows, in which i am
Drowning deep into, like
Sinking sand, a mixture
So fine that you can't see the
Imperfections- what we all
Have to find out one day or
Another time, another place
I hope we will meet
Again, I hear the music
That is ever familiar to
Me -- Sad and lonely
As I walk from here.
Sigh i just did that on the spot, dunno what i am saying, really. Sigh it was really sad today. Walking away from everything I ever loved. The school, the friends, everything. It was painful. I will miss all you singapore MG people. And all you singapore non-MG people. People from school, from church, esp ONE community, from my family and from everything and anything. Thanks for being in my life.... :) God bless all of you...
>>ame.

school!! tmr!!

2005-01-02T00:40:00.000+08:00

School.
The word reverberates in the student mind like a lethal weapon. As the last almost-tangible trace of holiday slip through our fingers, we feel the ever-looming presence of responsibility that seems to settle upon us. Surely people with decent compassion and understanding such as parents would bring this injustice to order?
But it has been done.
The law has been decreed.
Our day has come.

....And that's tomorrow! haha ok enough of the doomsday effect thing. :D i like doing that though.
How's everyone? I haven't packed my bag yet. No books! what to pack, actually.

Well anyway. Do i need to do holiday homework? Blast it if i needed to, i'm sorry teachers cos i didn't... sars. haha. bird flu. ok gotta go eat lunch, have fun people! Well not that you'll actually have a lot of fun because school's tomorrow but--------------you get what i mean.

---ame. :) keep happy!

school's a-starting

2004-12-28T13:12:00.000+08:00

Hey people... colour's red for a change.. things that are happening:
1) school's starting in approximately 6 days.
2) I didn't buy any books. is that good or bad?
3) I'm gonna die of boredom now.
4) I owe jiamin her 3 books (remind me ok minny? haha)
5) i haven't blogged for like 8 days... but it seems more than that.
6) i wanna watch national treasure but it's always sold out *sob* haha.. aus movie tickets are ex, i reckon.
7) Kung Fu Hustle is a great show! though there's the gross bits like people being killed with axes sticking out of their backs and someone's head falling off and things like that.. But it's nice. No i'm not deriving pleasure from morbidity.
8) I've just finished my jumbo pack of corntos.... yum. BBQ. Plus the colour surrounding the word Cornos is GREEN. *gloats over that fact for no apparent reason*
Haha ok so that's about it.. if anyone has new com games pls tell me!! :)
Be happy before school starts, okay?
>>ame.

Sorry sorry i know, late post.... very. late. oh well sorry! Ok. What are you guys doing now? What do you do to survive the inevitably putrid hand of boredom that is menacingly gripping your insignificant self to--- you get the point.
............oh man the weird mover people are here to take away some of the furniture to bring to someone else's house; she's buying it from us. Gagh the mover guy doesn't know how to speak english so my mom is like the middle man (no, woman) between the american lady buyer person and the mover person. Haha...
Oh hey i gotta go pack my stuff for church camp tomorrow (heh i am last-minute), so that means tmr is... dec 2. right. i'll be back on sunday, and that's dec 6 right? ok gtg see ya'll! ;)

boredom is kicking in!!

2004-11-17T16:21:00.000+08:00

Boredom is really kicking in....... i mean, besides practising grade 8 piano pieces (yes my mom made me start on grade 8!!) and tonight i have this guitar course thing with my sis (my mom signed us up... cheaper than learning in aus i guess..)..... agh the grade 8 pieces are like 5 pages plus, and i have this one that's 7--8 pgs!! how to remember... i cannot sight-read for nuts, or any other thing for that matter. i have to rmbr the tune, and my memory isn't exactly what i call reliable... haha..
But what i really want is an intermediate drumsssssssssssssssssssssss course!!! gah i have some variations in mind but i don't have a set to play on. bother it all... sigh.. and a yamaha standard set is $999 at the least! and that's without the ride cymbal!! blast.
Oh man.

Heh sorry for not blogging for such a long time, haha... yesterday was the sci lab thingy.. also went out with julia and mandy... ok here's the day's events in alphabetical sequence. :P literally.
Arrived in school
By walking
Chatted with fellow 1h ppl in the concourse
Decided to go up to the sci labs
Entered this science room thing that i never before knew was in existence
Found a coupla teachers who
Gave us some work to do in the sci labs
Had fun grouping the apparatus together (except the retort stands. really.)
I was thirsty. (only thing i could think of!)
Joked and talked while moving the stuff
Kould (could =P) be allowed to go into the new wing (rather Kool! haha)
Loved the bamboo thingy growing there ("Fire escape!", says minny.)
Made the most of our time there
Nice people we were
Oh, and we helped the teacher stick signs on the walls and
Put the stools and retort stands in their places in 1 of the new labs
Quenched our thirst in the canteen
Rested in the concourse
Stace had to go (smth to do with GB)
Trooped to KAP
Used our $ to get some food (*yum*)
Vacated our seats after eating and making some mush in a sauce container :)
Went to the toilet (me and julia) to change out of uniforms
X-citedly climbed into mandy's car outside KAP to go to orchard for a movie
Yawned under the load of the day's events
Zzzzzzzz....

descriptionsssssssssss

2004-10-30T14:06:00.000+08:00

Descriptions.. i need descriptions to help me calm down from gloominess.. *gloom*

...good times pass like a flurry of leaves in the autumn that drift to the ground and are buried forever, mix with other leaves; they are beautiful to the eye but quick and fleeting, only to leave a bare tree behind in the bitter cold of winter...

...Happiness can be described in two ways. Large amounts of money, costly property, high grades and such can give you joy. Superficial , temporary joy, where it just skims the surface, nothing more. The real happiness delves into the depths of life and floods inexplicable warmth into you. It comforts you when fear grips you; when you are unsure. It extends a helping hand and forms a bridge between you and the solution.
The real happiness lies in friendship- the key to your heart. It is the most valuable of valuables, a priceless gift that we must cherish. The world's most successful businessman would be a beggar if friendship did not exist in his world, but a poor man with true friends would gain riches to beyond material value.The key of friendship can never be destroyed, but can become lost occasionally, and still near you somewhere. If you look hard enough, you just might find it again.
Friends are there to love you, care for you, share with you, help you, teach you, learn from you, give you advice. Friends hang out with you, face your pains and excitements of life with you, laugh with you, cry with you, do crazy things no one else would do with you, and just to accompany you through everything, thick or thin. And no matter what happens, they will never let go of your friendship.

Ok i dunno why i'm doing this but it just helps... sighh.. sorry to say this again but i extremely excruciatingly utterly intoxicatingly miss 1h04. i really do..
--ame.still.sad.

last day....nononono

2004-10-29T23:12:00.000+08:00

Why? WHY?!? WHY must this yr end so fast!? Why must 1H, the brilliantest-of-brilliant classes, of yr 2004, end and split up into the blasted sec 2 classes next yr??
We had such nice memories this yr, seriously... my best yr... with the best people that anyone could ever befriend... remember all the fun times we had, just sitting around talking or teasing jiaen or playing games, or studying like crazy for the exams, or singing in the bus at the top of our lungs....... no one will do that with me when i go to aus.
++++++
To jiaen: You sat next to me in class. We talked, wrote notes (i kept tons, gonna read it on the plane next yr) , got into trouble together (we got scolded by Mrs Chen like a ton of times), had fun, talked even more---even if it was about lame stuff like wheelchairs. You kept me company in the toilet when i had bad stomach aches... You were a great pal, really... thanks for being there! (for me, that is.) I'll miss ya loads when i go there. You know, there. :'(

To becky: We were corny and silly (rmbr the "crouching tiger hidden dragon thing?!") and everything, despite the *koff* height difference. I had a x10000000000000 times fun today at your house for the farewell thingy........will miss ya dreadfully, y'know...........no1 will be as tall as you in aus. :'( Tall and corny. Where can one find such a becky-like combination? Only in S'pore, MGS, right there with becky herself. Nowhere else...

To jiamin: I think we got to know each other just this yr right? we had lame jokes too, you bullied me, i tried (and failed) to guess your locker number, we had fun (like today when we went to the fish farm and fed the kois, esp mama-san and sharkie...)...... plus you and your haha-able faces like the one i tried to blackmail you with, but didn't work. Nothing ever works on you man, from tapping to saying "look over there"...haha....you were a *spiffing* friend, great to laugh and joke with... will miss ya tonstonstons....

To mari: ya i only met you this yr, and we all had funnnn... you helped me (and my hyper self) calm down and screw my head back on... and you were v spontaneous in everything.. on national day we wore red and white even though like half the class didn't....+had 100% fun on your birthday, with air hockey and neoprints and all... i'm really gonna miss ya when i leave for perth.....

To starsee: haha i've called you starsee for so long i almost forgot your real name. haha...anyways you were a goody-good friend too, great artist (remember the pic you drew for Mr Low's card? cute and funny!) and always loved your tuition....haha... that day on mari's bday, when you had to go for tuition and missed the movie... though we sit like in different ends of the class, im glad we're frenzzzzzz... and your ultra-neat-and-straight handwriting.."like printed like that!" ha..will miss ya lots...

To julia: i'll definitely not forget the times we had acting crazy (now i'm gonna make you dance...etcetc are you singing it now? haha), dancing around class, drawing [medusa and all].... i doubt anyone in aus can draw as good as you... we make a gd team eh? sob... and no one and i mean NO ONE will ever be as mad (in a good way) and wacky as you...when you're in the mad mood it's contagious... :P i'll miss you when ---- ya you know what's coming...:'(

To saniah/ jillian: Saniah you were a vunderful and powderful (haha) chairman.... you hath governed the class well.. haha.. and you were a nicey friend too... though you couldn't come to the farewell thingy at becky's place, at least there's still Talentime and the nov 9 thing right? sighs... and Jillian, you were never in my class (......right?) till this yr... you're like the, er, "motherly type" if you know what i mean... no offense though... heh. Well yeah i'll missssss both of you too....

To everybody: i've never found such a fantastic class with fantastic people in a fantastic school, cos usually for the previous yrs i never felt that sad leaving the class... but 1h is different.... i really really really really enjoyed being part of 1h and i'll never ever forget it, not on my life. but one thing's real sad-- the school and classes will be different by the time i come back.... all metallic and not nice warm colours to fill MGS....as i think of all the nice things that has happened within this yr, i can't help wishing how happy i'd be if i could re-wind this yr and experience everything again...
We must must must keep in touch no matter what ok? i don't wanna come back for hols and realise that you guys have all drifted apart and just reduced to saying a "hi" when you walk past one another in the corridor... we should have like gatherings regularly like the thing today.. we must keep the class blog too.. BBAAAAWWWWLLLLL all this is making me miserable...
well i've written lots and gotta go sleep now... see y'all at talentime tmr... ---ame.the.sad

sob last day of sch is tmr!!

2004-10-28T16:53:00.000+08:00

Nooooooooooooooooo last day of school's tomorrow!!! it was rather fun today, though not as much photo-taking.. we had this financial literacy thing, sounds boring right? but it was really fun cos we played this board game thing that was 100000 times better than monopoly and bought/ sold shares and property and all.. there were diff periods as well like Boom, Recession, Slump and Recovery..and we were all like screaming all over the place when we got retrenched or smth.. haha ya so v. fun.. then we had this esplanade talk in audi. so many people askin' questions!! ha..

---amelyn.rushing.to.the.toilet.

gym. routine. aching. over.

2004-10-27T14:34:00.000+08:00

It's over!!!! All the imminent hard work and tiringly continuous practices devoted to the 1-half minute song and all the blood and sweat and tears put into it and the careful planning and strategy and over-usage of brain matter and pushing our physical ability to the limit and------ok i'm exaggerating.

Still. It was rather hard work, 'specially for becky and minny (ha) for doing so many cartwheels and tumbles and handstands in record time..and jia en too for doing the splitty thing at the end..ow that has gotta hurt.. so now it's all over!

.....But the process of fitting the moves and gymnastic acts and timing together was rather fun... :D We had fun today after school lining up in the little covered corridor behind 1H and doing the movements for the Yeah song routine chorus... haha and saniah videoed it.. :P whoooopee.

Me = happy! yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy ok so see ya tmr when we get our............our...............
.our............... REPORT BOOKS! [Script prompt: everyone say "gasp".]

yeps i'm full of nonsense as usual....heh.. g'bye! ------ame.

my exam marks!!! aghghgh!!

2004-10-25T16:59:00.000+08:00

Gah. GAH. GAHHH!!!

Got marks and all back, plus MSG (no not the food kind) and average...gahggahghaah.
My MSG was pretty high (which is a bad thing. Good MSGs are supposed to be as low as possible.) and the average was worse than CA2!! oh well what's done is done.. i'm not that sad actually.. =)
Anyways, i forgot all my html and am deciding that it takes too much effort to do, so i hath given upeth! :P Am i lazy.
Wells i'm on msn now, which i haven't been for like a million years (if becky's reading this, she's probably looking at the screen in the weird way she looked at me when i told her that. :P).. and today i have found out that:
1) becky finds ancient egypt interesting. (it's pretty cool if you're not scared of stuff, like me. heh.)
2) stace's allergic to MSG!! (yes this is the food kind.) but you eat it anyways, right stace?
3) we have finished the (tiring.but.overall.quite.fun) gym routine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[whoooopeee!]

wow really long post. ok gotta run, see you guys sometime!

ahaha

2004-10-22T18:35:00.000+08:00

haha today's gym routine practice was fun. haha. sigh still got like 6-8 more (blasted) long bars to go.. but it was fun la. :)
yay i'm having pizza for dinner!! pizza at my grands' (jia en's word. haha) place...

well anyway what about the moves and ending and "gymmy" stuff for the routine?? gah.
[i shall be having to stone again. whoopee.]
Oh y'know i'm going to Phuket next sunday.. supposed to be on sat but got talentime... haha my people will be taking the sat trip while i'll be (sniff) going all alone on sun! haha..

To saniah/ jillian/ julia/ elishea/ annushkha/ dahlia:::Why are you guys quitting?!! DON'T QUIT!! pls don't la..... it will serlously be a waste of such nice pro moves y'all concocted already.. really.. so much hard work down the drain... at least give it another shot pls.....you guys can do it, i'm sure of that!

hmm my lunch is great. :P will miss local food when i go youknowwhere...sob..
Anyways, ya today got english 1 back + the geog answers.. i think i did okay la for geog, but english!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
..Not that i don't like english. I DO!! Specially the compo. BUT...

the"text-type"wasapparentlywrongandwhat'swrongwithwritinganarrativeapproachcosthe othertimeforthepractiseessayiwrotethatkindofapproachanditwasmarkedcorrectokay!!!!!

..whew. but still. i think compos are a bad way to display proper creativity. i mean like the space for ideas and all are really really limited!! there should be creative writing where you can write about anything and everything. gah i should become part of the gov't and change certain stuff. sigh.

Well not bad i'm writing lots of stuff. :P And it all has to end here. ha. okays so slack as much as you can till next year and have fun! ---ame

sad day

2004-10-09T21:45:00.000+08:00

...............I'm feeling rather....what's the word....sad? awful? depressed? gloomy? Negative? Yep that's it. Negative.
..For one, my aunt just passed away. (today at 9pm. Half an hour ago..)
..For another, i haven't finished studying. And tmr i can't do any more studying cos it's the..you know.. funeral..
..And for that matter, I will fail, big time. Especially math and chinese.

..I still don't get why i'm so worried about exams, when my aunt was too busy fighting for her life to fuss about stress.
..Or maybe why i actually bother to look at my appearance, when she was always in hospital clothes.
..Whatever it is, she's with God now so it's all ok right? And the suffering won't have to prolong and prolong again and all...
---ame.
P.S. Thanks lian + jiaen!!

wooooooohooooo

2004-10-08T14:36:00.001+08:00

HISTORY IS OVER!!!!!!!!! yayayayayayay!
That was a beeeeeg burden. :P I feel so liberated! haha.
But there's still 3 more to go:

MATH (die an untimely death.)
SCIENCE (live, i think.)
CHINESE (die an untimely death[worse than the untimely death i'll be having on Mon])

Hmm... But if i'm dying on Monday, that means i can't die again on wed right? haha. But chinese really makes me wanna jump out of the window...haha...
WARNING TO ANY TEACHER/PARENT/OLDER PERSON---I am NOT trying to commit suicide.

1. Dance around ecstatically, feeling deeply and utterly exuberant that the (blasted) exams are over!!
2. Throw away all my books.---No, recycle all my books.---No, keep my b----OK FORGET I SAID ANYTHING.
3. Take up an intermediate drum course!!!
4. Read all the stuff i want. aka books. :P Got new ones that i haven't read and can't read till after the exams...
5. Go on msn more often. haha i dunno about this--i'll be too busy going "whoopee exams are over" to actually notice that the com is in existence.
6. Learn origami..ha looks fun....i like the frog thing! :P
7. Learn skateboarding, maybe if i have time..ha..
8. Try to remember what's written on the plague in the middle of the MG concourse.. For fun, of course. haha... (i think it starts with Ho Chee Sin or smth...)
9. Draw & draw & draw & draw &--you get the idea.
10. Write stories/ buy pringles to eat while writing stories/ have a happy time while doing the 2!

Ha well that's sorta fulfilling, writing down all the stuff.. Sheesh i know, but i have nothing else to-------WAIT I DO!!!!!!!!!! INEEDASTUDYFORMYGERMANORALORELSEIWILLSERVERELYDIE!!!!! homina..homina... I will........(i'll be saying the F word so brace yourself :P)...FFFFF..FAIL!!!! ARGH!

2004-09-21T14:17:00.000+08:00

Oh i am doomed... we were makin' a lot of noise or smth in class today during recess, and a teacher scolded us... Impending punishment will await us! Helpppp... haha... But I am still doomed.
In school com lab now, half-typing this and half-reading history chapt 2 of the new book, you know? :P haha I'm not exactly reading, i stopped at the word "immigrants"--which is not a lot.
Finals are creeping up on us, ready to spring upon our weary, sleep-deprived selves and pulverise us to a pulp..You have no idea how exuberantly delirious I will be when 13th of October greets us with arms open wide...I hope.
Argh I'd better stick to my studying for now, and less typing...AUGH!! SARS------Study And Really Study----- has infected me! i think. Ok gotta go. tata..

new skin, ha

2004-09-18T19:32:00.000+08:00

Oh well, a new skin!
I didn't exactly like the previous one...haha. So now it's a PENCIL SHARPENER!! :) yay i like it.. there were no proper pencil skins to get so it's a sharpener. I think the tagboard fits the little box at the side very well... haha. Ok anyways, guess what's happening tomorrow? *whistles innocently in case someone realises something* Not about me la... About....hmm.. ok i shan't say, i'm a relatively nice person. haha.
The fonts are so small. so this post shall be large, ha.. And my drawings are still transparent, blast it all! I really think i should scan more, but i'm too lazy..and you can't blame me, lazy people are ubiquitous.. aha but at least i've studied for the (lousy) history test on mon.. oh ya i still got science to learn!! haha but i like science, the part about the cells... very fascinating. ha now i sound like those sciencey people who stare into the microscope all day.. haha..
Oh hey i needa scram now, so tschÜs.. (yay i did that u-with-the-dots thing, even if it's capitalised..that's german, btw...i bet everyone knows that.)

Okay i gotta run now, my sister just came out to get a cup of water (it's 10:30 now, btw.) and suppose she hears the (rather loud) LP music i'm blasting.. Whew she just walked in and walked out without noticing anything! A miracle! I wonder how that happ--oh she has her iPod earplugs on.. sheesh she's like addicted to that little white contraption.
Ya so the point is, i don't really like iPods!! urgh. The second point is that i needa go to sleep now and put on those dastardly night-contacts now.. bye!

tagboard in!

2004-08-03T14:49:00.000+08:00

At long last, the horrible tb is in! It's a great accomplishment for a close-to-nonblogger person like me ok.
Can't scan anything, i'm in the school library now..Freezing to death, i tell you. But it's not as cold as the swimming lesson today, my teeth was audibly chattering! I am not exaggerating.
Argh the stupid library com's keyboard is so LOUD when you type! Urgh...I'm half-studying for german test today, half-typing this rubbish thing..ow i think an eyelash is in my eye.
Don't ask me why i'm using pink... just tryin' out all the colours la. Btw have you guys done your hmwk? Hmm wait there is no hmwk..
Ooh i really have to study no, it's 2:56pm & i needa read my txtbk pronto before i fail..Ow i plucked the eyelash from my eye. 2 eyeleashes, in fact.
Gonna sign off in GREEEN!! haha. Ok folks, tata and gd luck for Thursday's (awful, disgusting, diametrically utterly despicable in all eyes except teachers'...) Geog and Science test... Bleaugh.
