Was wondering whether to blog this out or not, but to keep track of some stupid moments, I guess I would blog this out.

This week is the first week of school and as I can gleefully say that I am enjoying my holidays *laughs at those who are going to school tomorrow! bleks!* to the maximum; which obviously includes going-out for movies, loadsa lunch appointments..shopping with the girls and it sums up to: spending a lot of money - simply a girl's forte!

As I see my little siblings get packed for school, especially my brother which is the age of 13, meaning that he's in form 1 now, I've come to realize that he has grown so much, I used to see him at the gate outside, waiting for someone to open the door, in that horrendous yellow shirt, and blue shorts (his primary school uni) and now, he's actually wearing LONG green trousers and white shirt, and he's actually in secondary school. I don't know why, but somehow, looking at him going to school and all, reminds me of myself in form 1 again. ohkay, I was just wondering why I didn't get all this funny thoughts of myself when my sister started school.. and my answer, it was because I was in form 5, and still having loadsa fun in school. :)

Back to looking at my brother going to school and all, and he suddenly tells me this, "hey, che, you know what, I think I don't have time to do my music homework, so I think I'll bring it to school and I'll complete them there, while waiting for class to start." Right after he finishes, the thought of Melody, me, and a few others sitting in the canteen doing our last minute art homework. At that time, we were rushing like hell to finish our art homework, mind you our art teacher was Pn. Christine, and if you didn't finish her art homework, she will throw your art stuff outside, and ask you to sit outside to finish her homework, or WORST; she would make you sit down OUTSIDE the teacher's office to finish your art work. And yes we rushed like hell, but kinda think of it, it was fun. Somehow, art has always been my favourite subject. :p Pn. Christine was also kind enough to let our class do this handcraft thingy; called Pualaman. You have to use oil paint to make this pualaman thingy. It was SO NICE. hehe.. too bad the other classes didn't get to do it because, we kinda, messed up the art room, and teacher didn't want the rest to repeat what we done. :p And ALSO, in form 1, she taught us how to make the 'tembikar' out of clay. It was so damn fun!! and then, in form 2, she even taught us how to do batik! :p It was DARN FUN! :)

And then, my brother continues with, "hey, che, must I pass this homework up tomorrow ah?" my answer, "ummm... dono".... he continues, "but I don't have this subject tomorrow..." "Then no need loh!" and then, the thought of respect popped into my mind. I remembered, in form 1 back then, we used to be SOOO afraid of teachers. kakaka. and then we went to form 2 and later up to form 5, hah! no one gives a damn, as in we weren't rebellious and all, well, a little, but then, we were not like.. afraid of teachers anymore and all.. you should know what I mean. And not only respect for teachers, I remember when I was in form 1, I didn't dare walk past the seniors classes - was scary okay. hah! NOW, kids nowadays arr, they are actually sending love notes (hahahahha... I remember back in form 2, this girl; [won't reveal her name here] used to throw in love notes into class, to one of my classmates! It was damn hillarious! The guys would be making funny noises, and then we would be the busy body ppl reading the note.) and also, I remembered that Joshua Tan used to have this whole troop of girls aka his fan club following him around school. hahaha.. if you ask me, now to do those stuff, I wouldn't have the guts to do so. :p

After that, he goes, "hey che, what should I join ah? Interact Club ah?" (FYI: normally, if he asks too many questions, I'd either ask him to shuttup or ask him to ask someone else or either ask him to eat his rice. But I didn't. Amazingly, I wasn't at all pist with him asking me so many questions.) and I answered his question with a 'duh'-face, and fortunately he was smart enough to understand the face I gave him. :p And suddenly the thought of visiting them during their agm would be a great idea. muahaha. go spy on them see how they handle the club. :p nalah. we just wanted to pay them a surprise visit! *whee. so we visited them today, and the members in our club, aiyah no need to say lar.. we have the biggest number of members compared to our sisters school, and I can see that the members are still growing - which is good. :) wish to list down some of the great memories I used to have in the Interact Club, but it'd be too lengthy also. But all in all I really enjoyed myself being as an active member and also a BOD - "service above self."


just some random happy thoughts about growing up in secondary school. :)

Yesterday... I meant my SUNDAY felt like Saturday!! *woohoo*
why? cos' I didn't go to church - erks* was not suppose to be happy with that.

*groans* I'm at home on NEW YEAR's EVE! terriffic right?
oh-kay.. since I'm stuck at HOME, I shall list down my New Year's resolutions!! which I think New Year's resolutions are kinda stupid cos' I don't keep 'em! But what the heck, just for the fun of it!

OR MAYBE!? we can LAUGH at my past year's resolution! :) *grin* but on second thoughts, better not! *shy lah!*



Esther's New Year ('05)'s Resolutions...

*whooopeedoo* was just telling my friend how time passes so fast. Sometimes we don't even notice that it flies by due to the hectic lifestyle that we live in.. the pace is so fast, everything is in a hurry, we prefer instant process to save time instead of taking the longer process - which sometimes, does do some good. Or even more if we're in the procrastinating mode, we'll be living in our 'tomorrow-never-dies' lifestyle.. "tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow." 

But anyway, all I am trying to say here is we're actually reaching the end of the year. I can't imagine how much I've been complaining this year that I won't even survive till the end of the year, and now it's actually here.  We, Amanda, Jo Ann, Francine and I were actually discussing yesterday during lunch time about last year's youth camp. (btw, I still can't believe I missed CAMP! bwaa*!) Last year we seem to be so lost, and confused, like lost sheep not knowing what to do after SPM asking God for directions. And now, I'm onto my last semester in A levels and she has completed like 1 year in her, degree.. (wait or wassit diploma? heck!) in psychology! :) I remember almost everyone was quite anxious to start college, and most of 'em (I remember Kwo Kuang) was proudly showing everyone his Taylor's ID, and now almost all the SAM people will be leaving for OZ in a months time.

Seriously, sometimes, we're too busy with other things, we fail to just stop for a while, to appreciate the present time. Most of the time, after a while, when we sit down and then we start to ponder, then we will realize that something good actually happened, or worst, we don't even realize that something good actually happened... why must it always be reminiscing of the past.. why can't it savour it now and then. It's like appreciating something when it's dead, and not when it's alive. sad huh? but I'm sure most of us are in that kind of situation.

Back to lunch yesterday, we were all discussing about leaving our home sweet home for studies. A little anxious to leave, but also a little scared because we will be all alone. As we were discussing, we realized that we're gonna come out and start working soon. Jo Ann will be leaving mid-Feb (or was it late-Feb?) and also most of my friends too (David, Zhuo Yan, Zen, Abby & Chun Meng...etc). Aaaah!* I dare not to type all the names out; so many out, they are starting to scare me lar.. seems to me, that all my friends are leaving.. SOON. *huge sigh*

anyway, as the New Year approaches.. well I guess there's some people I need to thank. For all their guidance, love, patience and ... aahh! everything!
