Everybody's looking for that something One thing that makes it all complete You find it in the strangest places Places you never knew it could be
Some find it in the face of their children Some find it in their lover's eyes Who can deny the joy it brings When you found that special thing You're flying without wings
Some find it sharing every morning Some in their solitary lives You find it in the words of others A simple line can make you laugh or cry
You find it in the deepest friendship The kind you cherish all your life And when you know how much that means You've found that special thing You're flying without wings
So impossible as they may seem You've got to fight for every dream 'Cause who's to know Which one you let go Would have made you complete
Well, for me it's waking up beside you To watch the sunrise on your face To know that I can say I love you In any given time or place It's little things that only I know Those are the things that make you mine
And it's like flying without wings 'Cause you're my special thing I'm flying without wings
And you're the place my life begins And you'll be where it ends I'm flying without wings And that's the joy you bring I'm flying without wings
because the heart never lies.

like what i said, many things happened last week. firstly, had guitar camp and the attendance was pathetic, but the exco probably tried their best and worked quite hard to make it good so yup, i guess it was still quite fun overall, minus the boring parts! then one of my uncles suddenly passed on due to infection and it was kind of sad everytime i see everyone looking so dampened and depressed. oh wells. life is unpredictable, seriously.
and then we had tangs training on mon & tues this week. wasnt much of a training anyway, just went there and make gift bags and boxes. then tues i visited the pasar malam with the girls! its been quite a while since i've been to one, and we bought lots of food to share. :D then ytd, kenneth gave chewps tuition for like almost five hours and i sat in all the way! at least i managed to get my electricity tutorial done. then i went for piano. now there's another recital coming up and that just simply imply that i'll need to practise more again. :/
today! had guitar in the morning but stupid chewps overslept. AGAIN. so went to the sitex fair after that and i bought a thumbdrive and a silver ipod nano! but im kind of regretting it now lah. feel like selling it away and get an ipod touch instead. any buyers? hahaha. then i went to far east to shop with the guys and that sums up my day!
more shopping tmrw and i'll be off for genting pretty soon! well its not exactly a fanciful place to go to, but at least i'm getting out of the country? :)
[edit] oh yes, heard the juniors won gold and third place for the genting competition. well done! & now its my turn to go there next. haha. :) [/edit]

many things happened the past few days. good things, bad things, an equal mixture of both i suppose. i'll probably come up with a more complete post soon. and do the quizzes.
just wanna put a short post here to wish my dear snsb juniors who will be leaving tmrw morning for their competition in genting! its a pity yanzhu and i are not joining them in the end, but still i wish them all the best! especially to my saxes juniors - JIAYOU! GO(LD) SNSB! : D
speaking of band, another event coming up! Event : SNSB Alumni Barbecue 2008 Date : 27th December 2008 Venue : East Coast Park Cost : tentatively less than $15 (more people then less cost!)
jointly organised by christina and mieoteng! its been a long while since we all met up, so take this chance and attend the bbq to meet up with seniors / juniors from different batches! and probably come up with some alumni proposal or something. hahaha. drop a tag or message me if you're coming! hope to see you there. :D
btw, went swimming with chewps this morning and we decided to tan ourselves for a little while. fifteen minutes only, and now the tanline on my back is SUPER OBVIOUS. its super red and ouch, it hurts alot. okay loser, yes i know. :/
then went to the airport in the evening to send my cousin off to korea. band exchange as well. not fair, why is it everyone gets to go on a band exchange except me. oh wells. and interestingly, it appears that i'm always going to the east side for different reasons every sunday, for three weeks already and counting. haha.
so long, farewell;

Alone in this house again tonight I got the TV on, the sound turned down and a bottle of wine There's pictures of you and I on the walls around me The way that it was and could have been surrounds me I'll never get over you walking away
I've never been the kind to ever let my feelings show And I thought that being strong meant never losing your self-control But I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain To hell with my pride, let it fall like rain From my eyes Tonight I wanna cry
Would it help if I turned a sad song on "All By Myself" would sure hit me hard now that you're gone Or maybe unfold some old yellow lost love letters It's gonna hurt bad before it gets better But I'll never get over you by hiding this way
I've never been the kind to ever let my feelings show And I thought that being strong meant never losing your self-control But I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain To hell with my pride, let it fall like rain From my eyes Tonight I wanna cry

i drink milk and i am strong! : D
& i am a happy girl cause i more of less managed to do three out of the five things that i wanted to do in my last entry! here goes:
"i wanna spend more time with my family but mommy's working in the day and i'm always hooked to the computer after she's back and thats just too bad. mommy probably heard me whining, so she took leave to help me revamp my room and we painted the room tgt! basically she just poured the paint for me, and i had to paint the entire room myself, twice, until my arms ached like mad the next day. it wasnt a lot, but i'd say we did spend some quality time tgt. :) i wanna meet up with my friends but they seem to be busy with so many other things and we cant seem to find a perfect time. (i wonder, why arent i occupied like the rest?) met up with some of the nssn people ytd when we had dinner at pastamania and then attended amanda's band concert. her solo was damn good. :) then spent a long time waiting for some dumb express bus with jiaying but luckily i was home within an hour. i wanna go shop and play and do everything that i want but i dont have enough cash, unless i can find someone who is generous enough to sponsor me? lol. I AM STILL SHORT OF CASH & I HAVENT FOUND A SPONSOR :( i wanna finish up my hmwk quickly so that i can enjoy the rest of my holidays before its back to mugging for As, but i'd really hate to spend my time doing hmwk! needless to say, its impossible to complete this :( i wanna go out and work but i cant seem to find a job i like that allows me to work anytime i want, like duhh :/ two days ago, i went ahead to repaint my room with my favourite - green! and then i had a major makeover for my room today. its quite amazing actually, i didnt know i was strong enough to move all the bookshelves, wardrobe and study table BY MYSELF! but its super duper tiring i must say. haha i love the way my room looks now but its still in a mess so this will give me something to do for the next two days! :)"
haha so it kind of summed up what i did for the past few days. oh not forgetting peer tutoring which finally ended (i didnt even teach much for the last two days haha). then i had piano today, another performance coming up but i'm very very reluctant to play. ah wells. and tuition is super boring, especially since i havent touched primary school work for years. BTW, I WANT TO GO TO THE EXPO FOR THE FOOD FAIR! :p
hardwork pays off;

yesterday was the last day of lectures for us! so technically speaking i wont be seeing most of my classmates until the third week of january next year. and we didnt even plan any gathering during the holiday. sigh. but anyway i still have peer tutoring today and tmrw, which is quite meaningless cause mandice and i were assigned to a new class with other tutors and nobody had questions for us so we just sat there with yinshuen for three hours and did our own work. haha. and then there'll be guitar practices for the upcoming syf but i think i lost touch already since i havent been playing it for quite some time. haha.
i wanna spend more time with my family but mommy's working in the day and i'm always hooked to the computer after she's back and thats just too bad. i wanna meet up with my friends but they seem to be busy with so many other things and we cant seem to find a perfect time.

went to the airport for popeyes chicken as well as to study with chewpin and amanda, but i wasted like more than three hours travelling to and fro the airport which made it an unproductive day. :(
but, saw a few st nicks juniors and vj seniors mugging there as well! like weeho and matthew, who came to share the table with us for a short while. hahaha. it'd be rare to see j1s studying now, but i dont care. i'm turning on mugger mode till the rest of this month so i can enjoy my dec holidays in peace! hehe. :)
went to buy a new pair of goggles today. i'm seriously investing a lot on swimming now. chewpin too. spent like more than a hundred bucks alr.. wahahaha. swimming tmrw with yanzhu. :)
its not up to you;

helen jingwen chewpin mandice yinshuen inside the lift
mandice and chewps trying to feed the pikachu hahaha
oooh, taken with nat ho after we spotted him the second time at raffles city
ooh szechuan actually owns a court in raffles city hahaha
sneaked a shot while chewps was in the toilet!
then the camwhoring begins once more after she came out haha
and again
together we spell LOVE :)
met up and had delifrance for lunch before the tangs selection. gosh, its definitely not easy trying to wrap gifts, especially those that are of weird shapes and sizes. but i guess i did pick up a good skill today, and i shall apply it for my christmas gifts if i can still rmbr how to wrap properly when the time comes. haha.
then we headed to the padang for the health campaign! i dont mean to sound so auntie but we actually got a free movie ticket and a free yoshinoya bento set! plus half a dozen of mineral water for chewps which she happily koped. lol. i think she's the happiest because of her great haul, plus she got to take photo with nat ho!
it was scorching hot so we decided to go into raffles city for a drink and walk around. then we sat down at this random corner and started our usual gossiping session until suddenly, we realised that nat ho just entered some shop so we went up to take photo with him again! i'm not exactly his fan, but i think he's really very nice and polite. and he actually know my name without me telling him, probably because of that big fat sticker i pasted on my camera. hahaha.
from this we can see, there are some things that money can't possibly buy. just like luck. and probably, friendship as well. i believe friendships should be built with a strong foundation, otherwise one wrong move and it'll topple, just like the uno stacko. and in this game i already lost quite a few rounds, i can't afford to lose anymore.
okay i shant say more. back to my story, then we tried to take a short route home but we met up with a roadblock (wrong bus stop) so we had to walk back and take the long route instead. finally, mandice, chewps and i found our way and then it was home sweet home!
aiyo its like three days after OP but i can't help but still relate my everyday life to our projects. oh wells. post-PW syndrome i call it. :/

met up with jiaying and yanzhu today! gosh we havent met up in ages! had lunch at j8, then we didnt really know what to do so the three of us went to the playground + icekimo, and then back to j8 again, where my mum came to fetch me and chewps to go swimming! and i'm hooked onto swimming now! hahaha. okay i shall make it a point to go swimming at least once a week for this holiday, and i hope i wont break my promise too soon!
so much for burning all that calories, i'm craving for popeyes! :/
i must not give in anymore;
because the heart never lies.

shall upload pictures another day cause i'm lazy to transfer my photos from the camera and i've yet to kope the rest from szeyun.
caught high school musical 3 on thursday, somehow i didnt really enjoy the movie (as much as i SHOULD have) but nevertheless, we feasted quite a bit inside the cinema - nachos, wedges, popcorn and drinks. then went back to st nicks for practice with yanzhu, and then dinner with amanda at j8. that girl made me wait for her for an hour while she was k-boxing. so i went to fairprice to grab some baking stuff, and made cheesecake after i got home. BUT, i forgot to buy butter. :/ sy says its akin to going out without a shirt (tsk tsk horny), but i still went ahead with the cheesecake. brought it to school the next day, it looked like quite an ugly mess, but chenghan still devoured it all.
halloween yesterday. started off quite well cause daddy came home! after that i rushed to school to try out our op (apparently everyone was slacking in the classroom), followed by lunch at KFC with part of the class. camwhored a little there, then went to amk hub and i finally bought my converse shoes! but i'm thinking of giving it away already cause i decided i dont really like the colour. tsk tsk what a waste of money. :/
dictionary's definition of loser : someone who has never or seldom been successful amanda's definition of loser : someone who fails to move on despite knowing its going nowhere chewpin's definition of loser : AW JING WEN
why? cause i stupidly wasted four freaking hours travelling to the other end of singapore and back. doing something that certainly lived up to my name of being the ultimate loser. sigh. luckily amanda was with me and helped cheered me up a little on the way, playing psp with me and treating me a durian pancake at the end. :)
today, wasted half the day sleeping, then did three chapters of maths and went to jog around the park. grandma attended a wedding so i took over and made dinner for my mum and scalded myself while trying to fry some nuggets. sigh.
