i wanna see the sun! it's been raining every bloody day and my knees are aching like an old lady's. haha. ok scratch that last part, i'm only exaggerating. my mum wun find it funny at all.
oops. i did not just call her an old lady.. :P
anyways, school's started for about a week. we had a 4-days-long orientation (which in my opinion is too bloody short), the whole of which is called "z'kardia" (and now, for a little greek 101: kardia=heart. dun ask me what the "z" is for tho). yep, and my o.g. is called "syephurone". yah i know, i went "huh??" when i first heard it too. i was expecting something within expectation, like, u know, flower names or insect names, etc.. but they had to go and come up with their own. lol. u can gadge rj students' creativity thru the names.. seriously, lemme give some e.g.s:
beeyootifool
Z'Oinks
Z'unit
D'zhron (and they helpfully put in the pronunciation in the o bklet: "jare-ron")
Z'omygawsh
haha. v amused. so u see, my o.g.'s name is quite alright after all! XD
yep. and the pple in it are.. very interesting. there's dot's ex for one. at first, when we had the introductions, and i heard the name, i was thinking, "oh ok, here comes another shaun/shawn/sean to add to the thousand and one shaun/shawn/seans that i already know". i dint even think sth as unfortunate as having ur gd friend's ex be in ur o.g. can happen to me, despite e.t. saying sth of the sort to me that morning. then she had to go and jinx me. lol. but wtv. all i can say that he is quite a smooth talker. a very very smooth talker. who apparently thot that i always looked lost, and thot it necessary to tell me so, in addition to commenting that i'm quiet. uh.. hello? what do u say to a friend's ex who had been de-famed so many times in conversations (or rather, gossip sessions)? so anyway, in response to his "u look lost" & "u're quiet" comments, i gave a very un-me (read: un-witty, un-chatty, etc. lol!) response: "(weird look) there's nth to talk abt". in retrospect, i shoulda said sth like, "how does a person look 'found'?" & "btw, i've heard so much abt u that i think anything further u might have to say would cement the bad impressions." lol. i'm sorry! shockingly enough, i can be that mean..
anyways, moving on! :)
huanglu is in my o.g. too. it took me like half a day to match the name-and-face to a very vague name-and-face fr my red swastika days. ack. i must be subconsciously trying to forget about that period of my life or sth, maybe i need to see a shrink (and this is not the first time i've considered it). lol. i cant even rmb if we interacted much back then. all i can rmb is that our mums used to be in the parent-teacher-association thing tgt.
..and, i found another bird of the same feather! lol. i know, that's a v. stupid expression. anyway, her name's pearlene and she's fr nygh. tgt, we form the crustacean family- she's crab (read: crappy) and i'm lobster! lol. we are very very wheelchair bound (read: lame). i'm so glad god brought me another cheryl-like friend. or else, to quote someone-whom-i-dun-like-to-name, i'll look very very lost. yep. but cherS and i still call each other up to chat abt our day. so far, the record amt of time we chatted for is nearly 50mins. XD my january phone bill is so gonna induce a heart-attack in my dad. oooops.
CHERYL!! we need to meet up!!!! talking on the phone is no fun when we cant see each other face to face and laugh at the imitations we do of the pple we talk abt.. argh. abby and i had been planning a visit to her at ac since last week and nth's materialised so far. hurrumph. and we need to drag so many pple along! like bel to discuss her unhealthy bad taste in guys *nudgenudge*, tianni to talk bel out of her current obsession since she's in the same class as said obsession, and jung to simply put in her looong-presence and constant interruptions..etc. lol.
argh. i miss the forty-niners..
AIIGHT. i think this will turn out to be an exceptionally loong entry (the like of which has not been seen since my obs one, i think) to make up for my periodic absence online! :)
oh yah! speaking of which, cherS and i managed, miraculously, to catch each other online
and on msn on monday night for the very first time! HISTORIC MOMENT! lol.

actually i've kinda exhausted my words.. so i'll just do a quick mention-and-comments thing for the other stuff that i intended to blog abt but is too much of a procrastinator to..
z'kardia station games: all i can say is u can so tell the pple who planned them dint come fr co-ed schs cos they involved lotsa bg interaction. either that, or they have a particular fondness for spaghettis and rafia string. but anyways, they were hella fun! :)
canteen food: after all the negative comments i've heard, it actually surpassed my expectations. then again, considering there's a subway booth... ;)
o nite dance: i hereby pronounce my scientific hypothesis that i have two left feet is a well-proven one. i cant bloody dance. dozens of apologies to my ogl and dance partner. ack.. :P
o nite itself: over all, pretty great. except that i wasnt happy with the way one performing o.g. totally stereotyped other jcs. but oh wells, there were plenty of humorous fake-tranny and paedophile (read: m jackson) acts to make up for it. AND the finale where they formed "z'kardia" outta burning sticks was way cool!
ok. now, i've exhausted both my words and my fingers (been typing at record speed). so that's all for now! :) au revoir mes amis!
go to, then; your considerate stone.
