IM.

i feel crappy right now. after my IM paper in the morning. i've been slacking in front of the pc like i haven't been before, downloading music. omg i mean im supposed to be studying for eoe paper tml. but i kinda give up already after the paper this morning. i feel dreaded. omg i really don't wanna take one more year to complete my studies. gosh. i just DON'T WANT TO STUDY ANYMORE. well, at the moment at least.

i am looking forward to the rest of the week. only. cuz beyond that is a different thing already. aiyah. i hate it.
i am looking forward to friday night with the girls. and was more looking forward to calvin being there too. guess it's me and my girlies then. i really could have debated with what he said just now. but im really in no mood to say anymore than just be safe. i've got more on my hands to deal with than to add another and make both more unhappy. guess if i were younger, i would have argued so much that will make sure i win the argument. oh well, i'll just do else that makes me feel better.

i wanna go blade and prawn tml. watch monsters vs aliens with calvin too.

i feel funny funny. maybe i'll really wanna eat macs sundae now now now now now. i am a spoilt kid now. and only now. mood swing.

time.

i guess i understand how steph will feel after reading her blog abt spending time with that someone special esp when time seems to be the factor. cal went out cycling with desmond atm and im at his place supposedly studying. i said supposedly cuz im not now! im thinking back on the suntan cum swim just now and i feel happy. cuz we both are doing sth we wanna do and the best is to have each other's company. ty dear (:

i hearts m&m crispy and chewing gum now. IM notes are incomprehensivable. esp the study guide whilst the notes is a thick stack of digesting to be done. and im soooo lazy. i guess i found a way: to reward myself with rock band after a certain number of pages that i clear. this way, it'll be easier for me.

No boundaries.

Seconds, hours, so many days
You know what you want, but how long can you wait?
Every moment last forever.
When you feel you've lost your way.

What if my chances were already gone?
I started believing that I could be wrong.
But you give me one good reason.
To fight and never walk away.

So here I am, still holding on

With every step, you climb another mountain
Every breath, it's harder to believe
You'll make it through the pain, weather the hurricanes
To get to that one thing.

Just when you think the road is going nowhere
Just when you almost gave up on your dreams
They take you by the hand and show you that you can
There are no boundaries.
There are no boundaries.

I fought to the limit, to stand on the edge
What if today is as good as it gets?
Don't know where the future's heading
But nothing's gonna bring me down
I've jumped every bridge and I've run every line
I risked being safe but I always knew why
I always knew why

So here I am, still holding on

With every step, you climb another mountain
Every breath, it's harder to believe
You'll make it through the pain, weather the hurricanes
To get to that one thing

Just when you think the road is going nowhere
Just when you almost gave up on your dreams
They take you by the hand and show you that you can

You can go higher, you can go deeper
There are no boundaries above and beneath you
Break every rule 'cause there's nothing between you
And your dreams


With every step, you climb another mountain
Every breath, it's harder to believe

Yeah, there are no boundaries
There are no boundaries

With every step, you climb another mountain
Every breath, it's harder to believe
You'll make it through the pain, weather the hurricanes

There are no boundaries.
There are no boundaries.
There are no boundaries.

I tried lucky by jason mraz on guitar on friday night. tried a lil of love story by taylor swift too. but i think i'll go improve on lucky first cuz the chords are easier and my fingers aren't too constricted for a beginner. Some chords really requires my whole hand lar. like 5 or 6 strings to be pressed down. but normally ppl use only 4, no thumb wad. and they are very far away. aiyah i also don't really know how to play that, i'll probably go ask my sis soon lo. IM and EOE on wed and thurs. i'll try studying forr eoe but i think if i really cannot grasp the concept then no choice but to let go. I wanted to try for eoe after cf paper sucked. i left 20mins earlier. anw that's that.

after exam activities~ lots! First, thurs to sat is my salsa chalet. fri wanna go phuture will freesia. sat is alex's bday party. following sat, siti's bday party. the rest of the time would be for work cal family. hmm yup 22yrs old this year already. must make a mark for a start (:

still... go get back on track for dancing. guitar. cook. TAN. jog. blade. food-hunting.

Went prawning with cal and friends last night. so happened that my dad and terri were gg too. hahah sea water prawning seemed more efficient by hand. lol so paiseh but fun. when the prawns swim near, KOP! lol apparently im good at it. at last, i found another talent! ;) BBQ-ed the prawns omg SWEETNESS! the freshwater prawns got BBQ-ed with salt. nice!! =D Know-It-All on facebook sucks. =( i feel zero general knowledge. bleahs. wad mythology, norse, abt singapore (which im kinda bad at omg not singaporean can!) anw you can find so many different tests la. 

No boundaries has nice meaningful words. (: short and sweet.

hahha i just got my collagen water, Pokka's with peach flavoured. i was *complaining* about insufficient intake in my diet. my skin's taking a super long time to recover and all. sadded. okay, shall head back to IM with collagen drink and crispy m&m (: nanina. i hearts IM (for now *winks*)

Love Story - Taylor Swift

We were both young, when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I’m standing there, on a balcony of summer air

I see the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
I see you make your way through the crowd
You say hello, little did I know…

That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said “stay away from Juliet”
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you please don’t go…
And I said…

Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone
I’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess,
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet, because we’re dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while
Oh, Ohhh

Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter,
And my daddy said “stay away from Juliet”
But you were everything to me
I was begging you, please don’t go…
And I said

Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone
I’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes

Romeo save me, they’re trying to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it’s real
Don’t be afraid, we’ll make it out of this mess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes
Oh, Ohhh…

I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town
And I said

Romeo save me, I’ve been feeling so alone
I keep waiting, for you but you never come
Is this in my head, I don’t know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said

Marry me Juliet, you’ll never have to be alone
I love you, and that’s all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It’s a love story, baby just say…yes…
Oh, Ohhh… Oh, Oh, Ohhh…

We were both young when I first saw you.


I've got this song stuck in my head. I'll learn how to play this on guitar.

if understudying is a sin, i'm SOOOO guilty of it.

(it's worse than chocolate!)


ooh, im sry to wake you up by my typing, cal. =( i'm trying to type as softly now. then again, i shouldnt be online. let alone typing.

blur me =\

Ah. i think Angels and Demons is quite a nice movie. well-paced. enough actions. but! i shall read the book first before commenting more on it though calvin said it's qt different from the book.

sunday morning, i ended up sending calvin, desmond and janet home. baked pound/ marble cake and chocolate chip cookies. made breakfast for dad and sis- sunny side up and butter&sugar bread, made avocado ice cream and avocado milkshake. i thought i was crazy too. (i dn have the photos now so too bad =P)

thank you calvin for the heart to get me war ration- vienna cream chocolate, seaweed, cornflakes (the one i was looking for cuz it was addictive after the first bite), strawberry pocky and also, your sis for the marshmellow.
(: (: hearts.

i cant believe im so blur now. fi cf then im. i though was fi im then cf. luckily freesia called me in the afternoon. else i would have studied im and sat for a cf paper. CRIES! i brought the wrong subs out to calvin's to study. right. and i came out of the wrong exit just now- cantonment police instead of sgh. =\

i've got so much i needa cover tonight and tml. wed fi 10am, thurs cf 2pm. i think luckily cf not 10am. then i got more time to play with.

i think subconsciously im getting a lil stressed out. with calvin trying to quit smoking, two agitable people in a room isn't quite the best team. oh wells, i'll try not to. but it's quite difficult sometimes not to say sth wrongly, cuz ppl do make mistakes and forget too. anw, it's only him i can get affected by over here, unlike at home. so yah, i shan't complain =x

oh yah, met cassand q and alison last thurs with cal. so nice to see them again!! =) like gd ole tuition times. and they're both in sim rmit. right. sch sch sch. must meet up with nicole and jean soon.

i miss chatting with freesia!!!

lackadaisical = lethargic. new word!! (:

and to Calvin: to hear you whizz makes me sleepy esp when you're so snuggly tugged into bed with the fan blowing at cha. i can imagine just how comfy it is to be there right now. but i cant do so cuz im not supposed to be falling aslp. sorry that the table light is bright that you gotta cover your head with the blankkie. i hope you'll reach your aim/ goal of quitting smoking. i'll be here to support you k? i'll try my best to control my temper also, esp when i got so much in my head to handle. i can't promise you that i wouldn't blow my top/ show you colours/give you attitude, but i'll lend you my ears and shoulder. and maybe my arm and fingers for you to bite.

Step by step,
we'll reach our destinations (: hearts you.
RARR.
and that was the biggest font. =\

5am.

i hate the feeling whereby i screwed up my sleeping time: i nap when i normally don't, i sleep when i'm normally awake. and it's only these couple of days that i've been doing so. it sucks to have myself not being able to fall aslp at 3.30am in the morning cuz i've napped at 3pm and fell asleep at 1am, but i weren't even doing work/ studies/ revision. crappy feeling. the best thing is there are alot in my mind and frankly, it doesn't help when i feel pressurized by other things when im already not able to focus in studies. 

my papers are 20th, 21st and 27th, since im not taking the one on 28th. it doesn't help when i have people asking me why not just give it a shot. i ask them back, "why waste my time trying to even figure out what the subject is trying to tell me?!" yar i know, it is not the positive me. but i hate to admit that it's not that tough, since freesia can get like 48 marks for prelims. then again, she probably at least get the gist of the subject. note: it's SUBJECT, not topic. it's not the money, it's the effort. i may sound stolid on this, but i know what's in next year for me. Yes, consequentially, i'll have to cope with 5 subjects. i'm taking into account whereby i pass the 3 core subjects this time around too.

anw i've been prawning with calvin quite a bit that i must say we both are not bad at it. i think he's good at it. just that the last time we prawned (2 days ago), probably not much luck. or maybe i took his luck. cuz the malay guys opposite us were talking about me. How come i throw the rod in, then sure get bite. and this occurred a couple of times. qt cool neh ahaha. freshwater prawn is fun yet addictive. 1.6kg 2 rods 3hrs, not too bad la. i wanna try lobstering next! we saw this guy catch lobster but he din share much, only that he could see sth white in the water- either dead prawn or lobster. but even when it bites, there's a technique to catching it. i think when the lobster bites, the float will sink. then he waited for a while before he tugs the line qt hard. but all these got a certain proven technique. i know, cuz i realised the technique for freshwater prawn (i mean diff ppl got diff techniques. mine's diff from calvin's though in general, it's qt the same like for the lobster one above). anw, it gets so addictive that before i shut my eyes after each session, my mind pictures the float sinking = prawn! this was more prominent when i lost the HUUUGEEEEE prawn on the surface the last time we went. omg that one would probably weigh 700g or so? the claws were humongously huge. omg crying out loud man!! rarr rarr!!

anyhow it's 5am already. i haven't clubbed in a while, i can't really rmb how it feels to be high in a club. i only know that if it's past the high stage, it sucks. esp for your friends. i do drink, but normally abt 2 glasses when im outside, be it beer or else. i think drinking at home is better- much much much safer esp after my experiences. i had Moscato just now with my dad. sth like dessert wine but a lil more bubbly. having chocolates with it was way better than it alone. hahaha (: i had way lesser than the white and red wines i opened the last 3 times round. but you know how it is- i drink when im not feeling good. and it feels good to drink and fall aslp. rather than trying to cry yourself to sleep like how most people will. yes, that's usually the case right? bah, im not promoting that one should do so whenever you feel sad or others. im just thinking back that's all.  it's just way better to open up and talk and not bottle everything inside, cuz when it accumulates, it's bad. real bad yea.

anyhow, im awake now. like long ago. i feel like baking. but i dno when he will call, cuz i offered to send him home from rebel. then again, he probably would text me when he got home instead. sically, i bake halfway then need to go off. then chao da, like my toasts. *rolls eyes* always one leh... maybe im not cut out for culinary. even basic one like toaster also like tt. hmpfh. feels qt inferior that a guy can do better than me. i tried. and i will again. sigh.

oh well, hopefully mom will wanna go jog later when she wakes up. at least i got companion. not that songs in my mp3 aren't sufficient. but company for a change (: i couldn't believe that i could complete 2 rounds of my estate plus climbing up the stairs. whoot awesome can. so i believe really that it's in the mind (esp when it's not the stitches, which sucks big time). anyhow, i actually jogged to the beat of bachata and salsa songs. maybe you ppl should try, other than rnb or rock. just for a change. hahah maybe classical is good too =x i dno, you try then tell me heh.

okay, im pretty done here now. was looking at cookies recipes. haha ultimately, i think im lazy to bake esp in the day. so hot already still have that 375 deg fahrenheit at you. it's the same as cold rainy day still eat ice cream. ;P

ciaos. xoxoxo.

Strength!

With everything seemingly with a dateline,
i feel more breathless with all around me,
some spurring me on,
others pulling me down.

oh i wish im even stronger than i am now,
for my surroundings still affect me, profound.
especially those closer to my heart,
for i hear them aloud.

rarr rarr rarr.

Oh God, give me more strength and faith for me to go through the next 2 weeks of May strong. I need the concentration and concrete strong mind to block unnecessary (at the moment) stuff now. i've got things to get down to, i've got my datelines to meet.

Cherri~ out.

Maldives.









If this isnt pretty, i dno what is. (i tried uploading the photo from its url, but it's =\ cuz too large.)

i wanna go... the Maldives!
I'm making it my goal. yay. second to France. hahaha. Maybe after visiting the website below, you'll make it YOUR goal too. ;)


is a good website to visit cuz it's really comprehensive and detailed. Under "what to do" then "photography", it actually states the kind of lens to use etc. wow.

On a sad note, Steph's grandma passed on. Steph was still talking abt her grandma and all when Jocelyn and I were with her on thurs. I was kinda shocked. Very sudden news from steph. shall attend the wake tml. so sad.

Shall turn in now. Got a long day with early start and maybe late ending. Oh, the weather sure is one crazy thing. Hot in the day, cold in the night. Extremities. Absolute craze. and the wind is soooo strong now. against my window pane some more. rarr, im hungry.

Anyhow, im turning in soon. nitez world.
