Greetings to all!

WHASSUP!

Class chalet was pretty cool. Only wish more of the class was there! But i really got to know ling ling, melissa, pamela and tasvita better, they really are cool people! (:

Oh yeah, sorry carin and lesley, that i couldn't make it to your parties. I really was intending to go! I even brought my guitar to play happy birthday and made cards:(

Anyway, if i you only learn one thing from this post, learn this:
ALOHA LOYANG SUCKS.
Big time!

On the first day, we had steamboat. Cleaned up the chalet, by flooding it with water. Euggh. The immense level of dirt inside was absolutely dreadful. I shrudder at the thought... YUCK.
The steamboat was good though! After that, we went to Changi Airport so liling could take pictures with mickey and just to go out for a bit. I still maintain my stand - terminal 3 SUCKS. It's so empty. The first time i was there, i thought it was a budget terminal tbh. Then, Agnes, I and melissa's clique went to get drinks, and headed out to the waterfront, and sat and talked, then went to mcdonalds till about 4. We then went back to the chalet, then the others woke up, and started playing polar bear, and uno. In uno, it was like stella and i had colour curses or something. ALL ( i mean all) my cards were blue, and stella had no blue. So funny. We kept sabotaging each other.

On the 2nd day, i contracted some weird form of a stomach upset, which still continues to today. crikey. We watched 'Wild Child' which was pretty cool. It was fun seeing emma roberts playing a bitch. HAHA. Then it was the bbq. I tried (and failed) to start the fire, but to no avail, even with so many firebombs or whatever you call that. Stella was the saviour of the day - with only just one firebomb(?) and loads of skill, the fire got started. The class parked ourselves around the fire, but mainly for the otah, the hotdogs, crabsticks, prawns, and the chicken wings (which were awesome!) At night, i played cards with lihuan, fiona, and xingying. We were originally intending to not sleep, but we caved at about 4am.

Then the next day, we pack our backs, checked out, and i went home and slept for a whole day. When i got up, my stomach killed me.

Anyway, i've been doing really weird things these few days, playing the air guitar in my living room and jumping around like a nut, then sweating up a storm. Oh well.

Future options for class outings that we discussed:
Ms heng's house somewhere this year, or early jan (might happen)
Some resort in sentosa - we have the beach, cycling, loads of activities, and pubs (prob in jan in 2010, when everyone is of age :/) NOT ALOHA LOYANG
Maybe Costa Sands ok now for photos, which were koped from melissa's facebook :/














my head looks like it's about to break.




wtf? why am i leaning forward!?




agnes is mad white.


haha, neoprints. It felt like secondary school for a mo again...




so colourful O.o

i think i was like the chief bottle opener or something, for the chalet. LOL.
P.S. i think i have small eyes, and when i smile, my right eye goes smaller. :( lol.

today,
*sigh*
I sold out to THE MAN.
The man controlling MTV.
The man controlling the stock markets.
The man who ruined individuality, but selling mass produced, china made products.
The man who made trends who would be followed blindly by tons of senseless, no brained teens, and fashion victims.
Oh yes.
I bought a crumpler.
I couldn't help it!
My mom offered...
Agrh.
Ok, *breathe*. It's nice.
But FLASHY.
Coolio.
At least i didn't get some common as shit colour.
HOLEY MOLEY.

Einstein looks SUPER CUTE when i strap the crumpler on him, and he runs about at home..
Oh he's so cute :D


OMG. I'm full.
Lunch - Japanese buffet.
*touches belly*
Oh, i'm growing fat.
BLEH.

I get weird dreams nowadays.
Just the other day, i was presenting a new scientific theory, which was about how the universe started out, and was FINALLY a really really good Grand Unified Theory! Then i got a nobel prize for physics, and a standing ovation... and some stuff about church, which i won't elaborate here.
And the other day, i dreamt i got chased around a hawker centre by a cat, then i threw a potato sack over it, and it transformed into a mutant cat, and then i got so pissed at my parents etc, it was a bit like eagle eye. The cat followed me everywhere. *shrudder*
And i almost died once in another dream, but got woken up in time. Phew.


P.S. Megan, i penta-tagged you to do the quiz, so you have to do it five times.
Only kidding! Ok, go do it lah.



QUIZ/ 4:36 PM
Wednesday, November 12, 2008

Tagging: Megan, Megan, Megan, Megan, Steve
Tagged By: Melissa Anne Siew Lin Dorai

1. Do you have secrets?
Who doesn't? This question's retarded

2. Would you fall in love with a boy younger than you?
Ew. A few days difference is ok. But not the Demi Moore-Ashton Kutcher kind. Not even a year. NONONO. Yucks.

3. Do you enjoy going to school?
most of the time. I can act like a nutcase.

4. What would you do with a billion dollars?
Get a big house.
Get a room with a killer sound system, and awesome screen and a killer movie projector, and get movies i've always wanted to watch.
Build a huge music room, with tons and tons of instruments. (musical, for all you pervs.)
Get gifts for friends, who've always wanted something, but never had the money. (only if it's reasonable. I'm capping it at 8k per person)
do everything i've ever wanted to do with a billion dollars.
Save the rest. But not in minibonds. NEVER in minibonds.

5. Will you fall in love with your best friend?
probably not.

6. Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone?
em. loved.

7. Ideal boy/girl?
Has a brain
Funny
Not some leech
Taller than me, or at least my height.
Not overly buff.

8. If the person you secretly like is already attached, what would you do?
Try to forget about it. It's wrong, and i don't want anyone to do it to me..

9. List five favourite TV shows.
Well, i used to be obsessed with the following at some points of my life. None now though, cause i really can't watch too much tv.
Smallville
The O.C.
One Tree Hill
Miami Ink
Globetrekker (lol embarrassing.)

10. Do you have any regrets?
Loads. But you live a little. Trying to give everything a shot so i don't regret too much.

11. How would you see yourself in 10 years time?
Probably finishing my med studies. Either that, or being a historian/musician/film director, amongst many other aspirations.

12. Who are currently the most important people to you?
Family
Friends
John Nash
The Cambridge marker for my A level papers next year

13. What kind of person do you think the person that tagged you is?
Um cool, likes good music. Lives life. Funny. Laughs A LOT. Cool. (:

14. Would you rather be single and rich or married but poor?
Money makes the world go round.

15. What is your favourite colour?
Can't really shorten it down but it's between
Orange
Red
Blue =/

16. Would you give all in a relationship?
It depends

17. If you fall in love with two people simultaneously, who would you pick?
please specify. Which one has what?
The one i feel more comfortable with, obviously, or would live happier with.

18. Does forever exist?
I guess it does, sometimes physically, or mentally, for famous people, and landmarks, etc. God is believed to be eternal, and the thought of there being a God has been there since eons ago. Mozart's music lives on, now way past his death, and the eiffel tower has been standing for many years now.
But, you know, forever exists in the sense that change will be forever. Changing of global climate, of appearance, of wealth, etc. Like how 5 billion years down the road, if the ozone layer stays, and we don't all die before that, the universe will become nothing again, like how it began as nothing billions and billions of years ago.

19. Name three things you would like to do but would never be able to:
Master the guitar
Write a book
Compose music that actually sounds good

20. BK Vs LJS. Who's the winner?
BK? LJS?
Um if i think i know what you're saying
Burger King. Can't help but love the whopper. Now that's ace.

21. If you tried on a pair of shoes, and they fit, and they were the only pair left, but someone magically came to steal them from you on a flying lawnmower... What would you exclaim?
"Póg mo thóin, yer feckin eejit!" Then, I'd take a gun and shoot the flying lawnmower down too, if i really love the shoes.
Nah, i'd be ok with it, because that'd be a dream. I've long got over the phase where i thought Harry Potter was real, and even contemplated going to Scotland to demand a place in Hogwarts.

22. Boys or Girls?
Huh? What? You mean do i like boys or girls? Or am i a boy or girl? What?
I like girls as friends. I like guys as friends too, and sometimes more than friends too, for guys. haha.

23. Would you consider yourself a morally upright person?
I guess so. Sometimes i get infuriated when people do things they shouldn't, but sometimes i do it too, whether due to peer pressure, or me just not realising it's wrong. It's part of human nature, and i guess i'm just a normal person, who does good but bad too. I don't know what i mean, but i hope you do.

24. Who would you want to meet on the red carpet and why?
Osama Bin Laden, at the premiere of "Where in the world is Osama Bin Laden". Then i take out my gun, shoot him, and get famous and rich. MUAHAHAHHAHAHA

Ok, honestly.

Adam Broody
Johnny Depp
Orlando Bloom

Female:
Ellen Paige
Agyness Deyn
Emily Osment
Emma Watson
Megan Fox (currently, the closest i have got to this is knowing Megan's fox, which is hanging off Megan Lee's pencilcase. LOL)

25. Would you have sex with a random stranger?
most likely not? Well not willingly anyway. Like i could get really drunk or something, but.. NO.

26. Do you smoke?
Pot. yeah. In your dreams. I've been to a cold climate, and blown out of a tube with fog coming out, so yes, i probably have. No, i haven't had anything to do with tobacco, except maybe secondhand smoke, so yeah. i've no money. Probably wouldn't even if i had.

27. Ever felt like killing yourself?
Loads of times. Then i realise i'll be nowhere and nothing, literally. So i don't.
Then again, i haven't hit that point of complete despair either. When i do, i'll let you know though. ;)



life. revolving around the telly/ 11:45 PM
Sunday, November 9, 2008

so, greetings people. i'm back from my recent trip to nowhere-dom.
i hope the new font sizes and fonts themselves are to your liking.
They are? Awesome.
They're not? TOO BAD.


Anyway, my mind's been crazily been dreaming of scrambling words up and finding other words i can make with those letters, due to an overuse of something called facebook. Damn.

So yesterday, i was watching the Europe Music Awards on MTV, which i usually don't, not only because it's not usually showing, but mostly due to my utter boredom. It was really cool, especially the killers performing their new single, human.
Halfway through, theres the word's human flashing on those screens, but due to brandon being in the middle of that rubix cube-like structure, M was cut away, and it said "HU AN" and i weirdly thought of Lihuan (sorry if this weirds you out!)
But other than that, it was a great performance. I remember 4, 5 years back when i was OBSESSED with the killers, and the bravery, but more of the bravery. On hindsight, now i think the killers are better, because their quality of their albums have been somewhat more consistent than of the bravery's. No doubt, 2nd album of the killers takes some time to adjust to, but compared to the bravery's "the sun and moon", i know it's a "shift in musical direction" and whatev. But damn, imo that shift SUCKS. (no offence)

Anyway, please enjoy the Killers' Human. Halfway through watching it on MTV, i started jumping up and down my couch, and around my living room, and even using the standing lamp as a mic, being a huge fool.





Today, i saw the trailer for "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist", and i thought it was pretty awesome. Which trailers are suppossed to look like anyway. HAHA.
But i really like movies with rock music-romance-comedy as genres. It looks really funny and awesome. take a look below:


After seeing the trailer, i thought of school of rock.
You know, you always have one of those movies that inspire you to do whatever you do? That was IT for me. I remember watching it in Sec 1 because it was compulsory. I remember throughout the entire movie, my eyes were glued to the screen. It was.. just immensely amazing, and an awe inspiring movie for me. I loved it so much, that i borrowed it from Jeslyn to watch OVER, and OVER and OVER again. I remember in sec 2, when i wanted to be a rockstar, and i did really weird things with my clothes. (pardon me, this might be a bad visual) I wore like a white long sleeved shirt, and a man u jersey over that, and a tie. Yes, weird, i know. It doesn't end there though. I'd jump around the house too, playing the air guitar like a rockstar freak. This was THE movie that first made me interested in rock music, that first made me want to learn the guitar. It was just.. BAM. And till this day, i think that has been one of the most inspiring movies i've ever watched. (not touching. inspiring) It may be a bad movie or whatev, but imo, my love for rock music started there. It fueled my desire to learn the guitar, it got be pissed at radio stations. It made me who i am today, i'd say. Well maybe i'd still learn the guitar, albeit much later, or maybe i wouldn't. I just wouldn't be who i am today without that movie.
I'm serious.(ly weirding you out, aren't i? :P)
So anyway, i'm really not sure what the whole point of that post was, other than to tell you about my music inspiration, which is probably kinda lame, but i dunno.
I usually have cool things to say, then get lazy to type it up, because, well, i'm lazy.
HAHA, so yes, you've heard it from me, i'm lazy. WOW, like that was a surprise.

btw, carin, if you're reading this, HSM3's only screening till THIS WEDNESDAY. so.. YAH.


Today, i suddenly pictured myself as a movie director, or song composer for movie soundtracks. Like bigshot ones. Call me crazy, or whatever, but i thought it was awesome. And cool. Yeah, i'm cool enough to be a director, defo! Like real. Shannon, stop dreaming.
