UPDATES AGAIN!
I'm back with updates...can see I'm going back to constant blogging only I'm multi-tasking now with huodong...SIGH tmr there's tuition...i think i really am in some sort of dilemma. firstly, i wanted to go for tuition to improve my language arts. but on the other hand, i dread it somehow because i just feel that I'm so terrible at it and i can't seem to get the hang of what those suicidal and female chauvinist poets. argh. this is really really really bad...but i shall update what happened today...
it was quite nice...sabbatical weeks are usually quite relaxing and a fresh new change to the normal rigid and sometimes, dry curriculum. so i had basic electronics and Math Olympiad...while seeing as Math Olympiad is kind of like an academic sabbatical, its refreshing change compared to normal school days wasn't that obvious but basic electronics was quite fun!
For Math Olympiad, we just basically went through examples and the first lesson was on manipulation of algebraic expressions and today's lesson had been on completeing squares...now even though i have attended Math Olympiad training in primary school, this one is especially different because all these concepts had to be taught within 5 days...also the teacher was from China i think and he tried using english to speak to us so i guess it wasn't as clear... also, due to time constraint, the teacher could not really explain in great detail and ensure that we have comprehended whatever solution provided or formula that had to be applied...so even though i try very hard to listen in class there is at least 25% that i do not understand completely and the other 75% i doubt i will ever think of using to solve these difficult math problems.
For basic electronics, the first lesson was a little too boring i guess because of the theory part in front but then again, everything in life has a theoretical side to it...but after bearing with it, we had the fun part! we got to connect circuits which could produce blinking lights or sounds...the tricky part was the connection of wires which we had to do in the correct sequence or the circuit would not work. however, both me and shaoting managed coz we used the number sequence below (ok i know its a little like cheating but its not wrong exactly)so we got a blinking light, falling bomb sound and horror movie sound...and for today's lesson, we had to solder a cube together...i tell you im terrible at soldering anything together coz i just DO NOT have the patience to do it. therefore, my cube looks somewhat distorted :D
then we had history test...i dunno whether it was ok or not...because i myself am unsure...all i had to say was i hope i don't do badly...at least 75% or higher pls? after the test, we had MUSICA VIVA! tigramuna came to our school to perform and i love nave navega i think its really nice and i think the charango is absolutely one of the best instruments there...and i was awed by the zamponas coz they produced such a loud sound when it looked kind of small...so i guess it proves the saying "never judge a book by its cover" true. HAHA.
after the concert, had training as usual. i was really looking forward to outdoor training but turned out it was indoors again. we had to carry on with the coaching course and after 3 more lessons we will finally complete both the umpire and coaching introduction course (something like that?). phew then we can start outdoors...actually i was kind of starving during the lesson...i also dunno why...perhaps i used too much energy to scribble away on the history answer script...HAHA.
played court after training and i arrived home so late....is it coz of my bad time management? but im seriously feeling bad that i haven't been going down to the court in the mornings or even playing during lunch.
to go or not to go, that is the question. LOL.

LONG TIME NO BLOG
hees sorry haven't updated for so long...shall start from last last week i tink...21 july! or was it 22 july...
then the next few weeks was full of tests...and i really think i can't hold out much longer...i mean i juz got back my math and it was so terrible...i can't believe i did so badly...its so disappointing not only to me but my parents too! ahhhh math which is supposed to be one of my strongest is sooooo LOW! and i knew i did badly for the chinese test (BOTH LANGUAGE AND CULTURE)i know i juz did badly...why are all my stronger subjects letting me down now???? oh my god i know im going to flunk everything and its for real this time coz somehow, my instincts are always right...MOSTLY right...AHHHHHH! i want to do triple science and possibly BSP now...i dun want my grades to deprove so suddenly! what's going to be of me if im not doing what im supposed to do as a STUDENT! i need to master my grades FIRST! so even though valerie said that netball is fine for me, my top priority still has to be studies first if not there's no point in being a student.
sometimes i really wished i was still back in st nicks coz maybe the pressure there juz wouldn't be so great. but then, i wouldn't have been able to improve under the pressure and i wouldn't be able to develop leadership qualities like nanyang has helped me to......i think maybe i shouldn't dwell on the past too much if not i will go bonkers. i seriously have lost my optimism...maybe being pessimistic is way better coz then you can criticize every single little thing or person around you since you are receiving criticisms now anyway?
history test is tmr and i better do well...i know this is called pressurising yourself but i have no choice...i got to achieve my ultimate best coz my best potential hasn't been unleashed yet and if i don't do it soon, my best will continue sliding downwards and it will disappear very soon...

TODAY
hmmm i guess today was alright except for the 2 tests- language arts compre timed trial n geog test...i mean the geog test was PROBABLY alright but the language arts one...GOD. my english rly sucks...if i ever become a professor or go into the education line (which my parents recommend me 2 do so), i will nvr pick english OR literature. i mean english alone is alright but fused 2together rly is a tough feat 4 me. i can't get it. n the speech was ok i guess but im rly impressed wif alicia (i guess she's juz born 4 the role of councillor) coz she juz kept answering all the qns. i answered one only...n im still so confused over whether i shud rly go all out 4 it or nt. im rly rly in a dilemma tt i dunno wad 2 pick. sigh. but i noe im going 2 get all out of it. i noe i can do it coz i noe im an optimistic person...i can pull thru it but its a matter of HOW. the big 'HOW'. argh. nvm mayb aft i achieve another of my own nirvanas i wil see the light. haha. n i rly hope dileen's alright coz i dun want her 2 feel bad over tt trivial thing. dileen, if u're reading rite now, i think u shud noe tt 'public embarrassment' was a bit 2 exaggerated. juz treat as a thing of the past tt u can totally leave behind. its alright. JIAYOU JIAYOU JIAYOU! JIAYOU TO DILEEN! JIAYOU TO ALICIA! JIAYOU TO MELISSA! JIAYOU TO ZEXIN! JIAYOU TO YUHE! JIAYOU TO ME!

sch n blaze training
had sch training yesterday...we had theory as usual...i think its a bit dry although there r some parts which r funny n to an extent, entertaining but i tend 2 get a little bored...i rly wished we could kind of move abt during the theory lesson...mayb coz im kinesthetic learner(which i tink the result was a fluke coz i didn't rly do the test properly)? but i totally appreciate it coz its sooooo useful. its super logical n sensible 2 learn all the rules so tt we can make full use n advantage of it on court. YAY. after trng went plaza sing...me jocelyn n cheryl basically juz talk loh...on the bus....which apparently cheryl had wanted 2 sleep but she ownself said she wanted to talk. HOW IRONIC. then we ate at food court...hah we r thrify people. then cheryl didn't get 2 buy her strepsils hahah. n we w8ed soooooo long 4 the bus!!!! gosh i h8 traffic jams. argh...sigh. i wish s'pore had more efficient transport system...esp 4 buses...we w8ed so long 4 bus 14 aft we decided 2 pass the 1st one coz it was quite crowded...me n cheryl had 2 change shoes in public while w8ing 4 the bus...muz admit it was a weird feeling. when we finally got the bus we were kinda worried if we were going 2 b l8...n cheryl was feeling guilty abt her being the only 1 sitting down while me n jocelyn stood on the bus. LOL. cheryl rly worries abt the weirdest things. she likes 2 feel bad all the time. tts a statement i came up wif aft certain observations:] so we finally reached like 1 or 2 mins b4 the time n we realised quite a few ppl hadn't arrived yet...so we weren't exactly tt l8 n there had apparently been no reason 4 us 2 worry. LOL.
we played friendly against temasek poly n i think i played quite badly...sigh no interceptions...want 2 challenge also nt clear challenge...only when we played against another team tt was slower than i was better...i think im getting rusty since i haven't touched a ball FORMALLY 4 so long...SIGH.then my dad came kind of l8 n i was so drained when i came home...
this morning woke up at like 6 plus 2 go walking....sigh. then had swimming...then had prize-giving at hougang sports hall 4 energizer national league. we got 3rd but we only got $10 ea n it wasn't even given on the spot...my dad was kinda annoyed when he found out n he said i could hav juz left halfway had i known...the thing is: I DIDN'T KNOW! argh...so time cannot rewind too bad. but the matches we watched were rly exciting coz everything was so close! nike air n adidas sneakers ace DREW then WON in wad i call sudden death. i tot nike would win. o well but i think the players r so totally amazing! i would nvr b able 2 play like tt...unless i become a netball player full time? LOL. but i think the division 1 match had 2 many injury time...thank god our normal games aren't tt violent*phew*
l8r had dinner at sfigato(WHERE ELSE?). quite nice only my pizza took ages...mom bought new shoes 4 walking...i was so thirsty aft watching the exciting matches at hougang sports hall...ok shall stop now. im tired again. shall try 2 post soon. if i can. im getting busy.

A FRUITFUL DAY
today was quite a fruitful day i guess...we watched romeo and juliet the movie for langauge arts and i can tell you its totally not supposed to include audiences like teenagers! its R-RATED!!!! gosh, the content there is so unhealthy so i guess that was a bad dose of erm..disgusting stuff. i suppose since we only watched it to understand the story better, it isn't that bad. as in the purpose in watching it wasn't to watch those 'stuff', rather erm for meaningful learning purposes. so that was that...then we had dance...gosh i seriously cannot do any of those things lah...i mean its gd tt dance helps u 2 grow thinner n stuff but i think i prefer exercising like mad 2 slim down. speaking of weight...i think i seriously AM getting fat. i gained TWO KG! and i didn't grow...but personally i believe tt the measuring device the tchrs used in pe dept isn't rly v. gd. i shall go down 2 my condo's gym n measure. i dun believe i didn't grow! AHHHH! then we had science. GROSS STUFF PART 2! omgggggg we had reproduction in humans 4 biology! argh. n everything was juz so. gross. im not going 2 bother 2 explain or give details...coz ARGH! n i can't believe our tchr was juz so business-like n nonchalant abt the entire LESSON! ok im totally at a loss of words now so i shall juz...MOVE ON.
then i had 2 go 4 dental...argh now my gums r like aching like mad...im beginning 2 CANNOT stand it...n the appointment was like only 1/2 hr at most! made me waste all my effort getting the leave of absence form n all those signatures 4 a mere 1/2 hr! so i returned 2 sch 5 mins b4 sch ended but i decided nt 2 go up 4 contact time bcoz basically by the time i went up, it would hav ended...so i was starving by then coz i hadn't eaten during both recesses 4 the appointment...now abt not eating im very contradictory abt it...tts coz i was both pleased wif myself tt i managed 2 diet but kind of regretting the fact tt i hadn't eaten...so i ended up hurriedly eating one kinder bueno, banana n sandwich...not bad considering the time i had till trng...
trng was totally awesome n gr8!new coach mr goh is gr8! i so believe we can achieve a whole lot more nxt yr 4 zonals AND nationals! this is like the first time i c the sch so involved n concerned abt our sch's netball n i muz say its a PLEASANT change!sigh but i think my netball's deproving..HONEST. i can't even intercept anything today when we sorta played court..SIGH.
n the council campaigning thing..sigh.TWO HUNDRED VOTES!!!!!!!!!!!! OMGGGGG HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET TWO HUNDRED VOTES???????!!!! this is totally insane! i don't blive the snrs b4 us could get 200 votes...i mean its virtually impossible. nvm im not planning on turning out 2 b a councillor anyway haha. but im juz merely expressing my views on this crazy thing (crazy to me).
HARRY POTTER IS GOING TO COME OUT SOONNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!! I WANT TO WATCH!!!!! AHHHHH I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ok but first of all i got to focus on the geog test. muz hurry revise if not there's no time left...
actually there's another issue tt's been troubling me...i juz dun get y my parents r so concerned over my bro now tt he's going 2 hav his psle..i mean they r giving him mock tests in a mock psle situation n timing him n all...n i didn't even hav this kind of treatment last time...i mean i was juz doing my own work...did the rev papers st nicks gave me last time OBEDIENTLY n then my parents r fussing over my bro...i mean im not green wif envy or anything...im juz kind of surprised at this reaction...like is it coz im a girl so like in chinese society im juz now 'worth' as much? or is it juz coz they rly want my bro 2 go hci tt badly?? i juz dun think its normal...anyway im not going 2 bother abt this anymore...its none of my business anyway...
i wonder how im going to survive this term...my language arts i hope will soon be revived... i mean its kind of dead now anyway but the good news is tt i got a TUITION TCHR! YAYYYYY!
I MUST BELIEVE IN THE POWER WITHIN ME. THE POWER TO EXCEL!

| You Are a Double Espresso |  Hey Energizer Bunny Girl! Do you ever slow down? You're a mix of high energy and ambition, perfectly matched with strong espresso When you want something you get it - by any means possible You're driven, determined, and no nonsense. Which is just how you like your java. |
was doing this quiz. guess this is kind of like me. not very wrong. but then again...doesn't apply to me all the time...
| People Envy Your Energy |  You've got the drive and determination to keep your life in order, and you are on track to be a huge success. People tend to envy all you've got in life, but they don't understand the work that goes behind it! |
here's another one. but i doubt its true. LAST QUIZ:
| You Are 28% Healthy |  You're on your way to having a healthy diet, but you have a ways to go. Everything is okay in moderation. But you don't quite have moderation figured out yet. |
ok here goes. im SOOO NOT HEALTHY! im going to get fat in a few yrs time. AHHHH. i can't control my stomach man.

Blaze training
had blaze training ytd. sigh i was quite reluctant to go at first but still went and i guess it turned out so much better than normal training...warm up was 20 mins of running...i felt so refreshed after tt...then we had fitness...skipping which i guess was ok because the skipping was kinda like the skipping we did in school (200 doubles, 50 left n right). i think cihui (is this how u spell?) was rly pro at skipping lah...can faint...no wonder they all say the neighbour below her complain she skip 4 half hr skip until she going to have heart att! HAHAHAHAHA! n me n alicia wasted time trying to tie this super long skipping rope LOLS. so hard to skip lah. the rope is too light so i always trip so we gave up n join back our grps. then we had sprints and passes...tt wasn't TOO bad...but the suicides with passes was way worse...so i guessed my fitness muz hav upped loads! then we had team ballwork and pair ballwork...i think i nid 2 improve on lobs and some passes...and we played game last...sigh i can't believe i was so NOT focused. oh well...mayb aft training on tues with the new coach, i might make some improvements. haha! jocelyn was pro lah, did outside-circle interception! sigh haven't been doing tt in ages. i tink outside-circle interceptions r real hard 2 do loh...claudia also pro as usual; brought down ball frm GK throw in and i think cheryl's change of direction v. gd. xinling very pro also, midfield play SHOOTER! HAHA. but the weather was REALLL humid. i mean the heat emanating(did i spell tt rite?) frm my body was intolerable alr n my perspiration???? gosh. i didn't noe nightime exercise could b so HOT. my shirt was totally drenched i tink i could have wringed sweat out of it. LOL.
had swimming earlier today...12 laps 4 warm up coz the pool was freezing aft the rain...i was reluctant 2 swim n kept complaining tt the water would b cold but shhh(dun tell anyone) the water was quite warm when u dipped inside...AT FIRST. then it was COLD. then swam freestyle n i can't believe i could lose to 2 puny kids??!!! they used flippers so they CHAO fast. then me, bro, julius n ryan (NEIGHBOURS) went to do this formation to block those 2 girls...since they use flippers. obviously the plan failed. n it made me more tired than usual. HAHA. my bro tried to grab tt girl's flippers 2 make it drop. LOL he failed too. ARGGHHHH!flippers make u go so fast. i want to buy FLIPPERS!!! only my dad wouldn't allow. SIGH. shall bear with the humiliation for now. shall think of other formations to block ppl. i think its quite funny...HAHAHAHA. didn't know swimming could b like driving...so fun 2 block ppl! netball can't block ppl frm running faster than u except when they offering so the thrill isn't there coz it isn't kind of directly racing against time...whereas swimming is. HEHEHEHE*evil laughter*
i guess my fitness improved like siao lah...within a short span of TWO days. 20 mins running and more laps than usual for swimming...i wonder if im going 2 play golf l8r. i might b too exhausted. but i have a feeling i MIGHT nid to. only hope my instincts/gut feelings r wrong this time...

after sch...
went to coro after sch today with shuting, yeujia and alicia. bought bubble tea n alicia paid for the fries haha. and i owe shuting money ($0.50 for bubble tea n $1 for the cheese stick) chatted and stuff...and YEUJIA has LAME stories...the poor guy got squirted out on the burning forest....LOL! and his swimming trunk laid burnt beside him with no logical reason.... HAHAHAHA. and she told me n shuting another lame one at the bus-stop but we didn't get to find out what it was in the end. oh well...FUN FAIR is TMR! i got an enlarge icebox hehe. only hope the ice doesn't melt n keeps its cool....i think funfair might b fun but then again...it gets quite tiring...i hope our sales will totally rock...not like last yr's toasted mars bars coz this yr, its BUBBLE TEA TIME! i think bubble tea is more popular with the crowd compared to toasted mars bars...honestly its more common n more ppl know it...juz hoping ethel's blender works n doesn't conk out halfway n all the ices in the iceboxes will not melt! or our supplies dun run out...im still pondering over the fact whether we can survive with only ONE blender...i wonder if there will b a crowd tmr....

back again
ok i dunno why im seriously so wuliao (delete n create) but never mind, wad's done cannot be undone. so here begins another part of my journey...only thing the past journeys have been lost forever in this universe, all except tt part in my brain. hah. i guess human computers (BRAINS/NEURONS) are still the most reliable systems on earth. solar system or universe i can't quite bet. :D

had sch training yesterday...we had theory as usual...i think its a bit dry although there r some parts which r funny n to an extent, entertaining but i tend 2 get a little bored...i rly wished we could kind of move abt during the theory lesson...mayb coz im kinesthetic learner(which i tink the result was a fluke coz i didn't rly do the test properly)? but i totally appreciate it coz its sooooo useful. its super logical n sensible 2 learn all the rules so tt we can make full use n advantage of it on court. YAY. after trng went plaza sing...me jocelyn n cheryl basically juz talk loh...on the bus....which apparently cheryl had wanted 2 sleep but she ownself said she wanted to talk. HOW IRONIC. then we ate at food court...hah we r thrify people. then cheryl didn't get 2 buy her strepsils hahah. n we w8ed soooooo long 4 the bus!!!! gosh i h8 traffic jams. argh...sigh. i wish s'pore had more efficient transport system...esp 4 buses...we w8ed so long 4 bus 14 aft we decided 2 pass the 1st one coz it was quite crowded...me n cheryl had 2 change shoes in public while w8ing 4 the bus...muz admit it was a weird feeling. when we finally got the bus we were kinda worried if we were going 2 b l8...n cheryl was feeling guilty abt her being the only 1 sitting down while me n jocelyn stood on the bus. LOL. cheryl rly worries abt the weirdest things. she likes 2 feel bad all the time. tts a statement i came up wif aft certain observations:] so we finally reached like 1 or 2 mins b4 the time n we realised quite a few ppl hadn't arrived yet...so we weren't exactly tt l8 n there had apparently been no reason 4 us 2 worry. LOL.
we played friendly against temasek poly n i think i played quite badly...sigh no interceptions...want 2 challenge also nt clear challenge...only when we played against another team tt was slower than i was better...i think im getting rusty since i haven't touched a ball FORMALLY 4 so long...SIGH.then my dad came kind of l8 n i was so drained when i came home...
this morning woke up at like 6 plus 2 go walking....sigh. then had swimming...then had prize-giving at hougang sports hall 4 energizer national league. we got 3rd but we only got $10 ea n it wasn't even given on the spot...my dad was kinda annoyed when he found out n he said i could hav juz left halfway had i known...the thing is: I DIDN'T KNOW! argh...so time cannot rewind too bad. but the matches we watched were rly exciting coz everything was so close! nike air n adidas sneakers ace DREW then WON in wad i call sudden death. i tot nike would win. o well but i think the players r so totally amazing! i would nvr b able 2 play like tt...unless i become a netball player full time? LOL. but i think the division 1 match had 2 many injury time...thank god our normal games aren't tt violent*phew*
l8r had dinner at sfigato(WHERE ELSE?). quite nice only my pizza took ages...mom bought new shoes 4 walking...i was so thirsty aft watching the exciting matches at hougang sports hall...ok shall stop now. im tired again. shall try 2 post soon. if i can. im getting busy.

A FRUITFUL DAY
today was quite a fruitful day i guess...we watched romeo and juliet the movie for langauge arts and i can tell you its totally not supposed to include audiences like teenagers! its R-RATED!!!! gosh, the content there is so unhealthy so i guess that was a bad dose of erm..disgusting stuff. i suppose since we only watched it to understand the story better, it isn't that bad. as in the purpose in watching it wasn't to watch those 'stuff', rather erm for meaningful learning purposes. so that was that...then we had dance...gosh i seriously cannot do any of those things lah...i mean its gd tt dance helps u 2 grow thinner n stuff but i think i prefer exercising like mad 2 slim down. speaking of weight...i think i seriously AM getting fat. i gained TWO KG! and i didn't grow...but personally i believe tt the measuring device the tchrs used in pe dept isn't rly v. gd. i shall go down 2 my condo's gym n measure. i dun believe i didn't grow! AHHHH! then we had science. GROSS STUFF PART 2! omgggggg we had reproduction in humans 4 biology! argh. n everything was juz so. gross. im not going 2 bother 2 explain or give details...coz ARGH! n i can't believe our tchr was juz so business-like n nonchalant abt the entire LESSON! ok im totally at a loss of words now so i shall juz...MOVE ON.
then i had 2 go 4 dental...argh now my gums r like aching like mad...im beginning 2 CANNOT stand it...n the appointment was like only 1/2 hr at most! made me waste all my effort getting the leave of absence form n all those signatures 4 a mere 1/2 hr! so i returned 2 sch 5 mins b4 sch ended but i decided nt 2 go up 4 contact time bcoz basically by the time i went up, it would hav ended...so i was starving by then coz i hadn't eaten during both recesses 4 the appointment...now abt not eating im very contradictory abt it...tts coz i was both pleased wif myself tt i managed 2 diet but kind of regretting the fact tt i hadn't eaten...so i ended up hurriedly eating one kinder bueno, banana n sandwich...not bad considering the time i had till trng...
trng was totally awesome n gr8!new coach mr goh is gr8! i so believe we can achieve a whole lot more nxt yr 4 zonals AND nationals! this is like the first time i c the sch so involved n concerned abt our sch's netball n i muz say its a PLEASANT change!sigh but i think my netball's deproving..HONEST. i can't even intercept anything today when we sorta played court..SIGH.
n the council campaigning thing..sigh.TWO HUNDRED VOTES!!!!!!!!!!!! OMGGGGG HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET TWO HUNDRED VOTES???????!!!! this is totally insane! i don't blive the snrs b4 us could get 200 votes...i mean its virtually impossible. nvm im not planning on turning out 2 b a councillor anyway haha. but im juz merely expressing my views on this crazy thing (crazy to me).
HARRY POTTER IS GOING TO COME OUT SOONNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!! I WANT TO WATCH!!!!! AHHHHH I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ok but first of all i got to focus on the geog test. muz hurry revise if not there's no time left...
actually there's another issue tt's been troubling me...i juz dun get y my parents r so concerned over my bro now tt he's going 2 hav his psle..i mean they r giving him mock tests in a mock psle situation n timing him n all...n i didn't even hav this kind of treatment last time...i mean i was juz doing my own work...did the rev papers st nicks gave me last time OBEDIENTLY n then my parents r fussing over my bro...i mean im not green wif envy or anything...im juz kind of surprised at this reaction...like is it coz im a girl so like in chinese society im juz now 'worth' as much? or is it juz coz they rly want my bro 2 go hci tt badly?? i juz dun think its normal...anyway im not going 2 bother abt this anymore...its none of my business anyway...
i wonder how im going to survive this term...my language arts i hope will soon be revived... i mean its kind of dead now anyway but the good news is tt i got a TUITION TCHR! YAYYYYY!
I MUST BELIEVE IN THE POWER WITHIN ME. THE POWER TO EXCEL!

| You Are a Double Espresso |  Hey Energizer Bunny Girl! Do you ever slow down? You're a mix of high energy and ambition, perfectly matched with strong espresso When you want something you get it - by any means possible You're driven, determined, and no nonsense. Which is just how you like your java. |
was doing this quiz. guess this is kind of like me. not very wrong. but then again...doesn't apply to me all the time...
| People Envy Your Energy |  You've got the drive and determination to keep your life in order, and you are on track to be a huge success. People tend to envy all you've got in life, but they don't understand the work that goes behind it! |
here's another one. but i doubt its true. LAST QUIZ:
| You Are 28% Healthy |  You're on your way to having a healthy diet, but you have a ways to go. Everything is okay in moderation. But you don't quite have moderation figured out yet. |

Blaze training
had blaze training ytd. sigh i was quite reluctant to go at first but still went and i guess it turned out so much better than normal training...warm up was 20 mins of running...i felt so refreshed after tt...then we had fitness...skipping which i guess was ok because the skipping was kinda like the skipping we did in school (200 doubles, 50 left n right). i think cihui (is this how u spell?) was rly pro at skipping lah...can faint...no wonder they all say the neighbour below her complain she skip 4 half hr skip until she going to have heart att! HAHAHAHAHA! n me n alicia wasted time trying to tie this super long skipping rope LOLS. so hard to skip lah. the rope is too light so i always trip so we gave up n join back our grps. then we had sprints and passes...tt wasn't TOO bad...but the suicides with passes was way worse...so i guessed my fitness muz hav upped loads! then we had team ballwork and pair ballwork...i think i nid 2 improve on lobs and some passes...and we played game last...sigh i can't believe i was so NOT focused. oh well...mayb aft training on tues with the new coach, i might make some improvements. haha! jocelyn was pro lah, did outside-circle interception! sigh haven't been doing tt in ages. i tink outside-circle interceptions r real hard 2 do loh...claudia also pro as usual; brought down ball frm GK throw in and i think cheryl's change of direction v. gd. xinling very pro also, midfield play SHOOTER! HAHA. but the weather was REALLL humid. i mean the heat emanating(did i spell tt rite?) frm my body was intolerable alr n my perspiration???? gosh. i didn't noe nightime exercise could b so HOT. my shirt was totally drenched i tink i could have wringed sweat out of it. LOL.
had swimming earlier today...12 laps 4 warm up coz the pool was freezing aft the rain...i was reluctant 2 swim n kept complaining tt the water would b cold but shhh(dun tell anyone) the water was quite warm when u dipped inside...AT FIRST. then it was COLD. then swam freestyle n i can't believe i could lose to 2 puny kids??!!! they used flippers so they CHAO fast. then me, bro, julius n ryan (NEIGHBOURS) went to do this formation to block those 2 girls...since they use flippers. obviously the plan failed. n it made me more tired than usual. HAHA. my bro tried to grab tt girl's flippers 2 make it drop. LOL he failed too. ARGGHHHH!flippers make u go so fast. i want to buy FLIPPERS!!! only my dad wouldn't allow. SIGH. shall bear with the humiliation for now. shall think of other formations to block ppl. i think its quite funny...HAHAHAHA. didn't know swimming could b like driving...so fun 2 block ppl! netball can't block ppl frm running faster than u except when they offering so the thrill isn't there coz it isn't kind of directly racing against time...whereas swimming is. HEHEHEHE*evil laughter*
i guess my fitness improved like siao lah...within a short span of TWO days. 20 mins running and more laps than usual for swimming...i wonder if im going 2 play golf l8r. i might b too exhausted. but i have a feeling i MIGHT nid to. only hope my instincts/gut feelings r wrong this time...

after sch...
went to coro after sch today with shuting, yeujia and alicia. bought bubble tea n alicia paid for the fries haha. and i owe shuting money ($0.50 for bubble tea n $1 for the cheese stick) chatted and stuff...and YEUJIA has LAME stories...the poor guy got squirted out on the burning forest....LOL! and his swimming trunk laid burnt beside him with no logical reason.... HAHAHAHA. and she told me n shuting another lame one at the bus-stop but we didn't get to find out what it was in the end. oh well...FUN FAIR is TMR! i got an enlarge icebox hehe. only hope the ice doesn't melt n keeps its cool....i think funfair might b fun but then again...it gets quite tiring...i hope our sales will totally rock...not like last yr's toasted mars bars coz this yr, its BUBBLE TEA TIME! i think bubble tea is more popular with the crowd compared to toasted mars bars...honestly its more common n more ppl know it...juz hoping ethel's blender works n doesn't conk out halfway n all the ices in the iceboxes will not melt! or our supplies dun run out...im still pondering over the fact whether we can survive with only ONE blender...i wonder if there will b a crowd tmr....

ok i dunno why im seriously so wuliao (delete n create) but never mind, wad's done cannot be undone. so here begins another part of my journey...only thing the past journeys have been lost forever in this universe, all except tt part in my brain. hah. i guess human computers (BRAINS/NEURONS) are still the most reliable systems on earth. solar system or universe i can't quite bet. :D

profile.
I'm Yu Xuan and fifteen this year. This means I'm sadly not entitled to many things. My life is under control currently (thanks to my very practical and sensible parents). I may appear sensible to you but you must never judge a book by its cover.
