liverpool/me/carrie

what? liverpool won the champions league? it has to be a joke but people, i'm not laughing. what next? me passing my history summer test? sheesh. i know it's remarkable that they came back from 3-0 down at half time but the thing is, it is hard to associate the current liverpool team with that gleaming europeans' cup. it's an oxymoron people!

yesterday's tennis practice was fun. i mean, i actually played with the tennis players of innova jc. isn't that cool or what? the coach said that my racket's kind of unacceptable. it's heavy and the grip's huge. but hello? tennis rackets don't come cheap. it's not like i can get one for $29.90 at any store. the cheapest is probably $89.90, the wilson one i saw at royal sporting house. but it ain't that good compared to the $130 one. like duh?! but i think i'll get the cheap one first, as a substitute for my current antique of a racket.

yay!! carrie is the new american idol!! woo-hoo!! i thought bo would win cause there hasn't been any white guy yet to win the title. i'm not sexist but i thought that that was how america was going to vote. nevertheless, i'm very happy with the results. among all the AI winners, i like her best. go carrie!!

freedom!!!!!!!!!!!!

i can hardly believe it. i practically did most of my homework this weekend. that's like super wow!! i finished my SEA history essay, GP essay, Othello essay, GPP draft & bahas stuff. that's a lot of work done by a seventeen year old nadia. this means that i don't have to rush through all my work in between lessons. i'm only left with econs tys hw which i'll do tomorrow. yippee!! i am so bloody damn proud of myself!! during these past three days, i only went out to causeway point (for flag day) and parco bugis junction (with my mom). i've been sitting in front of the computer screen for as long as i can remember. sheesh. i need a life, oh so badly.

yesterday, i squeezed in two group work stuff online (my PW GPP & my bahas stuff), sacrificing my kuch na kaho on vasantham central. but i guess it was all worth it cause i'm like done with school stuff for the weekend and the movie wasn't as good as i had expected it to be. the ending was like totally abrupt, very disappointing despite having aishwarya rai & abhishek bachan as the leads. sheesh. that leaves me with nine hours left (if i were not to sleep) before i have to leave for school again. sheesh.

the french open starts today. ooh. i'm like so excited. rafael nadal's not winning this, but he'll go far. he's just too young to handle the pressure and stuff. nevertheless, i'm so totally rooting for him!!

tennis AND choir for me.

it's final people. i've decided to join tennis without quitting choir. that makes me an idiot with too much commitments. i know it's nuts but if i like it both and willing to sacrifice certain things, then why shouldn't i? i'm always game to try out new things (isn't it to good to be true?). anyways, it should be FUN trying to balance my assignments, project work, TWO ccas and my daily dosage of television. believe it or not, i've only spent 30 mins in front of the telly today when i watched the simpsons on star world at 6 in the morning. cool huh? i'm so not going to quit choir because the people there are like super nice. i can't disappoint them after all their niceness and stuff.

pw groupings.

i was grouped with bernadette, merissa, philmon and shuchen for project work. i can't describe us in one word though cause we're all like different. i'm the treasurer. overall, i'm very pleased with my group as we are hardworking people, you know. we don't mess around one. hah. like real.

(what bad english have i displayed. i don't deserve to be called an A Level literature student at all. i'm so sorry people. i'm just not in the mood to perfect my usage of the english language.)

choir or tennis or choir AND tennis?

oh man. am i mad or what?! i'm so totally confused. first, they don't want me. now, they're calling me back soon after i've settled nicely into my new habitat. urgh. after bonding nicely with the choir people, i've suddenly been given the chance to join the tennis team after some unappreciative people backed out. i'm not sure what to do. tennis practice and choir session both fall on the same day. i can't possibly be at two places at once. as much as i love singing, i love tennis as well. but if what ms lim said were to come true (which was that choir would be on a different day next term onwards) i would gladly become a part-tennis player, part-choralist. i think i should speak to ms ng about this. it's giving me an overdrive of sudden emotions. sheesh.

oh boy. ms nathan was like a ferocious lion during pw just now. she came barging into class and scolded us like super loud as if mr yeo wasn't there at all. have some respect for that guy, you old auntie. he's super nice, okay. and then she started calling up those peeps who have not shown her their PIs with that super loud voice of hers. i was literally shaking at my seat, worried that she might just remember my stupidity of an idea. and holy cow, she did. she kept calling out for the person who is doing the project on economic impact, which was in fact me. but i pretended that i never existed before her eyes and tried hard not to stand out from the rest. for a moment then, i almost had an asthma attack. after she left, i was still trying to recover from that traumatising experience. scary, man.

oh yes. should i join choir AND tennis? i wouldn't mind one bit but i know everything will come crashing down the minute i do so. you see, i'm not very good at time management. sheesh.

brr, it's chilly in here.

i'm in school right now. it's break and ao maths. very free. instead of doing my tons of hw, here i am blogging for the sake of the people. ct's absent today because of some eye thing, dunno what ah. sheesh. i feel so mean and nasty and even embarassed for all the things i did. only those peeps know what in the world i'm referring to. had blake groupwork during ms baey's lesson. ricca's impression of a baby was superly humourous. this baby that she drew had bulging muscles. so the very the funny.

tom won survivor. i'm not exactly happy but at least it was better than having katie winning. i felt that what ian did was super courageous. i mean, giving up on a million bucks just to save friendship, well that's something. i love him like hell. rob mariano and rob cesterino should learn a thing or two from this.

oops. gotta go for history lesson now. ciao. i'll probably continue later.

project work anyone?

i am finally done and over with my first project work PI. remember, this is just the FIRST draft and ms nathan will blow her top when she sees my utterly stupid and nonsensical idea. it's just a tragic, to have to take project work. i hate projects. especially on the building up part. sheesh.

woah. uchenna & joyce managed to beat rob & amber from behind to win the million bucks in the amazing race. so the very the awesome. but i can't deny that i was left rather disappointed that rob & amber didn't win cause i'm like a survivor freak. survivor rules, big time!! oh yeah, brian & greg got themselves these foolish goatees which looked so odd and cute. it's nice to see brian again, after so long. so cute man that guy.

faezah, jude, ct and i went to the so called 'reading room' which was recently opened for student's use. there was still the fresh smell of paint which got into faezah's head. for a minute then, she totally lost it. she was scratching all over complaining of mosquito bites but there wasn't any there. i felt itchy too but only cause my skin was too dry or something. the air-cons look more suitable in an antique shop rather than actually being utilised. just because we're students, that doesn't mean that you can treat us like rats, you know. sheesh.

seventeen.

went to lido with kk, ger and zm yesterday where we watched house of wax. the storyline is like super horrible but the horror and suspense are right on. it was really super scary. other than that, everything else is just horrendous. and i certainly do not recommend this movie to anyone, unless of course if you want to blow ten bucks on it which i did obviously. i should have watched orlando bloom in kingdom of heaven. it has to be a thousand times better than this.

they bought me a quiksilver wallet which i liked. then, they brought me to the shop to see whether i liked any other better. of course i saw one which i totally fell in love with and i told them just that, even though the price was almost twice of the one they bought initially (so thick skin right?). but they insisted that it was okay as it was better to have me like the wallet naturally rather than having to like it. so, okay i got the wallet that i wanted. it's awesome.

on friday, my fellow nutcases in A23 gave me a plush cow which 'quacks'. it is super cute as the cows wears a super tight purple tee with my name on it. so the very the adorable. it comes in a milk carton sort of package with its very own birth certificate. her name's moo. so innovative those people. later that afternoon, merissa was asking around those who haven't sign the birthday card which was supposed to be for me. she then asked me accidentally and didn't realise her mistake until after like 10 seconds. so blur man that girl. sheesh.

oh yes. kk cut her hair like, short. it was quite shocking to see that hairstyle on her as i had never associated her with short hair. it was also weird cause for the first time, i have hair that is longer than hers. sheesh. but overall she looked okay.

a truly interesting day.

i certainly cannot believe i passed my international history test (got 11/15 for it) and also my econs mcq test (got 15/20 for that). that is like so totally unbelievable. as always, there will be that particular failure on the other side. i failed my econs essay test drastically. it's even embarassing to type the marks i got. ok, i'll try my very best to. i scored a measly, pathetic, dissappointing, demoralising two out of twelve marks. that's utterly stupendous. the highest marks in class is three. i'm really not sure whether that's supposed to make feel better at all.

today's class attendance was horrendous. 8 people were absent. that's like almost a third of the class. imagine how awkward it was during econs class where there were like only 5 of us and ms vyna. but thankfully, she didn't teach us any new stuff as she broke out into hysterical laughter like every 30 seconds. according to her, the day was too tiring to the extent that she snapped out of her sanity (the last word's my own, she didn't exactly said that).

during mdm joyce ling's history lecture, she made every one of us tell the others about our ancestry and migration background. that was basically the only fun part. her lesson was plain dry and she goes like super fast that even i, the speedy writer, couldn't jot down notes quick enough. sheesh.
