Ohmy Celine, I can't stop thinking about Ben & Jerry's now!

Whoosh :D
guess who's pinning my hopes on Celine(:

I just realised CoachTK's picture's on B&J's official site(:


The blue-nosed toy's a beaute.

Lianne got me a divine kangaroo from Perth!
it's so super adorable with the joey and all!
thanks Lianne

when I brought it home though, I could've sworn that my mom thought like my boyfriend or somebody gave it to me and she interrogated me so very thoroughly about how I got it.
she was unbelieving when I told her my friend went to Perth and got it for me, cuz I think in her mind, friends don't give stuffed toys to each other for no reason?
I didn't try convincing her though, just let her ask her questions and I answered them, but she finally was convinced when she saw the 'xoxo, Lianne' sticker on it.
funny; today, that makes three people who don't believe that I don't have a boyfriend.

strange much?


 



I hate it when my mom gets fucked up and dumps all the shit on me
and I’ve got nothing to do with it
at all.

makes me feel like crying


Gossip Girl is BACK and awesome as ever


Mr Nice.

I like you very much better that way.
it's distracting how damn sexy you are


ahhahah if you're wondering what on earth that's supposed to mean, don't.
it's only for me to know and not even for you to find out.


this week's been wrecked emotions week.
I've been happy, relieved, upset, stressed and there's always this nagging feeling at the back of my head then followed by guilt, a rebellious feeling.
for today, I've been well, down.
I've always got a feeling that I'm not doing enough and exams being near and everything.
but then I've been trying to figure out why I can't bring myself to concentrate and can't find the reason.
YES, I'VE BEEN FEELING SO EXTREMEMLY FRUSTRATED AND ANNOYED WITH MYSELF D:
at least school's sort of fun, with Lianne and all.
I remember the last time my deskmate made going to school something to look forward to was in P4.
haha thanks Lianne, for being fun and all

Without you, I live it up a little more everyday
Without you, I'm seein myself so differently
I didn't wanna believe it then
But it all worked out in the end
When I watched you walk away
Well I never thought I'd say
I'm fine
Without you
-Hinder


Ever stopped & think about whether you should or not stretch out a hand in kindness when you see a chance too?

maybe 99% of the time when we do an act of kindness, it isn't so random.
you see a chance to do kind, you probably think about it and then decide whether you want to do it or not.
for me, the times I choose not to take up that chance, it's often because:

  • I don't feel comfortable helping this particular person
  • I don't have the time/ I'm rushing (excuses, excuses!)
  • Other people can help, doesn't have to be me (chicken!)
  • I'm just less socially aware when it comes to stretching out a helping hand (true, since it usually takes a while for me to realise HOW I can come to use but by then, I'll persuade myself it's no difference or it's just too late. BUT! I'll feel bad about not helping 100% of the time in such cases. HAH)
  • I just don't feel like it.

I'm sure there're tons of other reasons not to help, but al these are those I've personally experienced/ can think off from the top of my head.
you see, acts of kindness ARENT random, though they sometimes feel so.
I'll say, that's because you feel that you're OBLIGED or have a RESPONSIBILITY to do so because this is how you're taught since forever, or you're afraid people will judge you if you choose not to do it.
as simple as you see your teacher carrying a whole lot of stuff in his/her hands.
WILL YOU STOP AND HELP? Or, WILL YOU CHOOSE TOPRETEND TO NOT SEE HIM/HER?
sounds familiar huh, very much like giving up your seat to those who need it more in a public transport.

Another example, your friend dropped something, most people would automatically help pick it up for him/her.
and I'll say, it's because we're so used to doing it, we don't even think about it, we've been TRAINED to do it ever since forever.
Up till here, if you're thinking of asking, what's the point of typing all these, I'm still trying finding the answer to that too.
Random acts of kindness. Really, how random are they?

Ms Tan's assignment to JASE:
Do an act of kindness that's genuine and interesting. By genuine meaning from the bottom of your heart, not because you feel you HAVE TO do it for the sake of whatever. By interesting meaning not the usual kindness acts like helping the old lady cross the road (though we know that's ACTUALLY be interesting in Singapore).

&I'm starting to wonder, how difficult can it get?
when I realise it can really.
What is it that can and will make a difference;
What is it that I'd really like to do?


Ice-skating at Kallang Ice Palace with Fencers was the bomb.

Thanks to awesome Celine and Esther, I can skate without holding on to side railings :D
it's kinda like my second time skating only.
first time, I was as fail as Jean was today, falling on my butt and hurting tail bone like crazy.
haha Jean, you'll do fine next time :D
okay Fencers, must do it again after EOYS.


we'll own this rink

Holidays are awesome, but once it starts, I seriously don't feel like doing ANYTHING anymore.
let's chart my progress since Friday.

Friday
deaddeaddead tired.

Cinderella on Ice/♥

Saturday

Foilist juniors 9th,10th,11th position.

borrowed/returned STACK of books and went to get cake!
but DAMN swensons didn't have dry ice, stupid wasted trip.
when my dad found out I rushed from clement sports hall to west mall and back to clement he gave me a hell of a lecture.
why didn't I think of HOLLAND!

Sunday
slept a lot.
read a book, placed orders for two dresses and 2 racer backs online.
SHITEZ. I told my dad and felt super guilty for spending so much so I decided to return him the money I spent but he said 'Nevermind, I buy for you. THIS.TIME.'
I love my daddy, and not just because he paid for it.
I THINK I'M GETTING ADDICTED TO ONLINE SHOPPING!
I've spent over a hundred online shopping within this two months already D:
okay, I, Elaine, solemnly swear NOT to shop online any more for the rest of this month.
but window online shopping is fine.
(that was an easy loophole)

went with family to some music thing at Botanical.
pretty awesome experience though I spent most of the two hours observing people rather than appreciating the music I guess. (it ain't my kind of music you see)

Monday
that's today!
NSC then came home and slept for hours before tuition.
cleared my cupboard(amazing!)
read a book(really awesome) and that's about it.

Unaccomplishing but like what the heckkkkk!
IT FEELS SO DANG GOOD TO LAZE AROUND DOING BASICALLY, NOTHING.

Okay, you can miss everything I said in the middle BUT NOT THIS.

Cinderella on Ice
Magical doesn't even begin to describe it;
