I only celebrate April 14

Since it's Valentine's Day this coming Wednesday, perhaps i will do up an entry with some information on that particular day.
I am too bored.


Ok, firstly, let's get back to History. I find the history of Valentine's day interesting.
And the many other dates following February 14(*read: Valentine's Day*).

Saint Valentine's Day or Valentine's Day is on February 14. It is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other; sending Valentine's Card, candy, or donations to charities, often anonymously. It is very common to present flowers on Valentine's Day. The holiday is named after two men, both Christian martyrs named Valentine. The day became associated with romantic love in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.

The day is most closely associated with the mutual exchange of love notes in the form of "valentines". Modern Valentine symbols include the heart-shaped outline and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten notes have largely given way to mass-produced greeting cards. The Greeting Card Association estimates that approximately one billion valentines are sent each year worldwide, making the day the second largest card-sending holiday of the year behind Christmas. The association estimates that women purchase approximately 85 percent of all valentines.

In the United States, the marketing of Valentine's Day has tagged it as a "Hallmark holiday".

A Gnostic Valentine

Far more prominent historically than any of the Saint Valentines is Valentinius of Alexandria (c. 100 - c. 153). He was an influential Gnostic teacher and a candidate for Bishop of Rome in 143.[3] In his teachings, the marriage bed assumed a central place in his version of Christian love, an emphasis sharply contrasting with the asceticism of mainstream Christianity. Stephan A. Hoeller assesses Valentinius on the subject: "In addition to baptism, anointing, eucharist, the initiation of priests and the rites of the dying, the Valentinian Gnosis mentions prominently two great and mysterious sacraments called 'redemption' (apolytrosis) and 'bridal chamber' respectively.".

February fertility festivals

On the ancient Athens calendar, the period between mid-January and mid-February was the month of Gamelion, dedicated to the sacred marriage of Zeus and Hera.

In Ancient Rome, February 15 was Lupercalia. Plutarch wrote:

Lupercalia, of which many write that it was anciently celebrated by shepherds, and has also some connection with the Arcadian Lycaea. At this time many of the noble youths and of the magistrates run up and down through the city naked, for sport and laughter striking those they meet with shaggy thongs. And many women of rank also purposely get in their way, and like children at school present their hands to be struck, believing that the pregnant will thus be helped in delivery, and the barren to pregnancy.[5]

The word Lupercalia comes from lupus, or wolf, so the holiday may be connected with the legendary wolf that suckled Romulus and Remus. Lupercalia was a festival local to the city of Rome. The more general Festival of Juno Februa, meaning "Juno the purifier" or "the chaste Juno," was celebrated on February 13-14. Pope Gelasius I (492-496) abolished Lupercalia. Some historians argue that Candlemas (then held on February 14, later moved to February 2) was promoted as its replacement, but this feast was already being celebrated in Jerusalem by AD 381. The pope also declared in 496 that the feast of St. Valentine would be on February 14.

VALENTINE'S DAY IN OTHER COUNTRIES

Thanks to a concentrated marketing effort, Valentine's Day has emerged in Japan and Korea as a day on which women, and less commonly men, give candy, chocolate or flowers to people they like. This has become an obligation for many women. Those who work in offices end up giving chocolates to all their male co-workers, sometimes at significant personal expense. This chocolate is known as giri-choko (義理チョコ), in Japan, from the words giri ("obligation") and choko, a common short version of chokorēto (チョコレート), meaning "chocolate". This contrasts with honmei-choko, which is given to a person someone loves or has a strong relationship with. Friends, especially girls, exchange chocolate that is referred to as tomo-choko (友チョコ); tomo means "friend" in Japanese.

By a further marketing effort, a reciprocal day called White Day has emerged. On March 14, men are expected to return the favour to those who gave them chocolates on Valentine's Day. Many men, however, give only to their girlfriends. Originally, the return gift was supposed to be white chocolate or marshmallows; hence "White Day". However, men have taken the name to a different meaning and lingerie has become a common gift.

In Korea, there is an additional Black Day on April 14, when males who did not receive anything for Valentine's Day gather together to eat Jajangmyun (Chinese-style noodles in black sauce). In South Korea, there is also Pepero Day, celebrated on November 11, during which young couples give each other romantic gifts.

In Chinese Culture, there is a similar counterpart of the Valentine's Day. It is called "The Night of Sevens", on the 7th day of the 7th month of the lunar calendar; the last one being August 30, 2006. A slightly different version of this day is celebrated in Japan as Tanabata, on July 7th on the solar calendar.

In Persian Culture (Iran) this popular date is discreetly celebrated by most lovers despite the disapproval of such occasion by the hardline Islamic government as a copycat of the West.

According to Jewish tradition the 15th day of the month of Av - Tu B'Av (usually late August) is the festival of love (hag haahava). In ancient times girls would wear white dresses and dance in the vineyards, where the boys would be waiting for them (Mishna Taanith end of Chapter 4). In modern Israeli culture this is a popular day to pronounce love, propose marriage and give gifts like cards or flowers.

In Brazil, the Dia dos Namorados (lit. "Day of the enamored", or "Boyfriend's/Girlfriend's Day") is celebrated on June 12, when couples exchange gifts such as chocolates, cards and usually a flower bouquet. This day is chosen probably because it is the day before the Saint Anthony's day, known there as the marriage saint, when many single women perform popular rituals in order to find a good husband (or nowadays, a boyfriend).

In Colombia, the Día del amor y la amistad (lit. "Love and Friendship Day") is celebrated on the third Friday and Saturday in September, because of commercial issues. In this country the Amigo secreto ("Secret friend") tradition is quite popular, which consists of randomly assigning to each participant a recipient who is to be given an anonymous gift (similar to the Christmas tradition of Secret Santa).

In Mexico, the Día del amor y la amistad is celebrated similar to Colombia but this one falls on February 14.

In Finland, Valentine's Day is called Ystävänpäivä which translates into "Friend's day". As the name says, this day is more about remembering your friends than your loved ones.

In Slovenia, a proverb says that "St Valentine brings the keys of roots," so on February 14, plants and flowers start to grow. Valentine's Day has been celebrated as the day when the first works in the vineyards and on the fields commence. It is also said that birds propose to each other or marry on that day. Nevertheless, it has only recently been celebrated as the day of love. The day of love is traditionally 12 March, the Saint Gregory's day. Another proverb says "Valentin - prvi spomladin" ("Valentine — first saint of spring"), as in some places (especially White Carniola) Saint Valentine marks the beginning of spring.

In Romania, the traditional holiday for lovers is Dragobete, which is celebrated on February 24. It is named after a character from Romanian folklore who was supposed to be the son of Baba Dochia. Part of his name is the word drag ("dear"), which can also be found in the word dragoste ("love"). In recent years, Romania has also started celebrating Valentine's Day, despite already having Dragobete as a traditional holiday. This has drawn backlash from many groups, particularly nationalist organizations like Noua Dreaptǎ, who condemn Valentine's Day for being superficial, commercialist and imported Western kitsch.

In Denmark, Norway & Sweden Valentines Day is known as Valentinsdag. It is not celebrated to a large extent, but some people take time to be romantic with their partner, or send a card to a secret love.

Valentines Day also has regional traditions in the UK. In Norfolk a character called 'Jack' Valentine knocks on the rear door of houses leaving sweets and presents for children. Although leavings treats, many children were scared of this mystical person.

I am not sure if people now are still into giving of flowers. Is it still a kuku thing to give flowers?
Okok, is it a norm for a guy to give a girl flowers? Actually, in my opinion, girls should give guys flower on that day. It will be sweet to see the guy holding the flower around right? Hehes.

Okok. If you are buying flower, please bear in mind the meaning of the colour that you are buying. Different colours have different meaning. But i am sure you all know the meanings of a few normal colours like red right.

Yeaps.
Actually.
I went to bake kuukies(*read cookies*) on my own.

Tasty kuukies. Made names(*successful*).
And they taste not too bad.
Van dropped by while on his way to meet his girl.
Passed him a box of kuukies.
His girl love choco cookies.
Hope you love it~

Am i nice or what!
*woops*

Burnt my pinky.
T_T
But worth it for yummy cookies.
= )
Did something really silly.
Hahas!
But it's silly things that make people laugh.
Deciding whether words should be left unsaid.
So....if i succeeded in making the name on the cookie, words will be said.
Actually, the cookies were nice and out of the oven.
Looked nice but when i attempted to take them off, they broke.
T.T
So well, yeaps.
Hahas.

And i laughed!
Ok, sounds silly.
Better pour honey on my burnt pinky to prevent blisters!
=)
>.<

Oh yes, while waiting for the kuukies.
I attempted to play Audition(*did i mention that word?!*).
Okok, or rather, i took on a challenge.
Been a long time since i trained my fingers.
So went in, played and suddenly weird looking directions came up and i am stuck on the same step throughout the freaking song.
So...well, that means, i owe someone a "favour".
Dang~
No girl, i wont intro guys to you. =p
Woops.
Hahas!

okok, after everything i shall head to study.
= )
I am hardworking right.

Thinking too much?
Nahs.
My intuition is always/usually right.
Especially when it concerns me.
That is why, lesser contact with people = lesser conflicts.

First, CONGRATULATIONS TO MISS CHRISTINA TOH AND MISS TOK JIAYING(*read chris blog then know de..T.T*).
They did so much better than the previous time.
*claps claps*
Proud for you peeps.
And to all people who did well, good good.

Love brings obsession?
Or, it isn't love at all.
SO CUT THE CRAP.
T.T

Why do smses end up into quarrels?
Why is it that, it's hard to be friends when certain things happen?
Hmmmm.
At times i wonder.
Perhaps lying helps?

Guys are good to be friends but jerks in relationships.
So, i will die a singleton.
= )
Like a dog tied to it's master.
Let's see this.
Someone asks you where you are and who you are hanging out with.
And what are you doing.
Do you get irritated?
Perhaps, it's ok for a few times.

Better not elaborate.
I am nobody to you and you are nobody to me.
So, hmmmms, leave things alone

Barely had sleep last night.
Gosh.
What happened to my life all of a sudden~~~~

Forgive this girl here for ranting.
But i just need to........rant.


You know, they use to say, learn to be content?
So it's hard.
So many times, i think , and i give myself prep talks(*which ends up into useless sobbing*).

Like i have said, as i get older, i realize the need to not be weak.
The need to be strong.
At times, i wonder why am i in my position?
I never understand why.
So many times, you will want to just forget everything.
Just let someone take your life away.

It's stupid.
How many times, i let tears flow for no apparent reason.
Just because i am tired of everything.
I am not even 18.
And i am tired of everything.
Weak?




As i look into the future, i hold fears.
Or rather, there is no faith that i can handle what is to come.
Remember teacher talking about harder and more complicated DE stuff.
And i just so want to give up on everything.
Even i fear giving up~
Dang~

Reading my stuff.
Looking at maths.
The thought of giving up is tempting.
I envy.
I tried to love maths.
I tried to practise.
But it's never successful.

So tired!
I am such a weakling!
Ar!!!!
Hate such blog entries.
JUST DONT READ THEM.
I just want to organise my thoughts though they aren't of good use.
Everything comes to me, in such a complicated way.
I just want to cry till i go blind.
I just want to scream till my voice is hoarse.
I just want to jump till my legs break.
I just want to laugh till i drop.
I just want to be myself on my own.

But so what~
Like i can do them all.
Afterall, LET's FACE REALITY.
Even if i can't accept it, i got to.
T.T

I studied. But for some of the questions..
I AM SO @_@
Oh my gosh.
How to answer them u tell me!

Wish me luck people.

Eternal hug.
It's sweet.
Very sweet.
Found this on Yahoo! News.
Very sweet.
Is love eternal only when two dies?
I start to think of all possibilities if they didn't die young(*they assumed they died young*).
But it's sweet to see such stuff.
And i so want to know their story.
Why they hugged each other.
How they died.
Why they die.
Who are they.
Why were they there?

Sweetness

Oh gosh.
Mi Ch Elle!!

I tried so hard not to throw temper.
You see, when i am studying, i tend to get irritated easily.
T.T

Trying hard not to throw temper this time.
Mi Ch Elle!!

I hate it when people throw temper to their own meemee.
I HATE IT!
AND I DESPISE IT!
But i am doing it, so i need to control~
CONTROL.

I HATE AND I REALLY HATE THOSE PEOPLE.
Control Mi Ch Elle ...
Dont throw temper just because of my own stuff.
Meemee is tired after a day's work.
STOP being a kid already.

Can tell meemee is tired.
SO CANNOT THROW TEMPER AR!
Mi Ch Elle....
One more time you throw temper, no dinner for you!

I can't stand it when someone/me throw temper just because of demanding reasons.
SPOILT BRATS!

OH MY GOSH!!!

MAYDAY MAYDAY!!

I realised a SERIOUS problem!!
THE SHAPE OF MY HEAD IS WEIRD!!

OH MY GOSH!!!

HOW TO MOULD IT'S SHAPE BACK???
OH MY GOSH
MAYDAY!!

IS MY HEAD A FAKIE?!

Great..
Everything decides to go haywire .
T.T
Don't do this to me now.
Really not in the mood to study.
Discipline mi ch elle, discipline.
Read a few WORDS, look up, and my mind wanders.
Do back, read a few WORDS, look up and once again my mind wanders.
To where?
Dream land.

I am totally stuck at nine step innovation process thingy.
Gosh~
Really need to discipline myself.
T.T
Argh!!

If i can just off parts of my brain when i am studying.
That will be great.
T.t
Pathetic.
TOTALLY.
NOT IN THE MOOD.
I hate it when i start blaming the mood.
PLAINLY BECAUSE I AM NOT DISCIPLINE.
GOSH~
Fine, start complaining and becoming whiny.
mi ch elle, get a grip and get back to your Nine innovation process.

Yue sms-ed me.
She's coming over on Fri to bake cookies.
For?
Nono, we aren't kukus.
Not for CNY.
It's for Valentine's day?
Hmmmmms.
Who is she giving them to?
*Whistles*
I shall just give them to whoever i see.

Lols.
As expected, it's the time of the year~
SIANS.
Valentine's day where pathetic people starts complaining and couples start to become sweet and lovely.
And being the suay one, i got a mixture of such friends.
T.T
Yes, pity me.
Those pathetic (*read ivan..ok fine, not him alone...*) singles start to complain how pathetic they are and who will they go out with on that day.
Okok, i am dumb.
I gave stupid suggestions which lead to another hour of complains.
And most pathetic(* wrote pathetic because they complained...being single is not pathetic la..=)*)
singles gave the same complaint.
So it's like hearing repeated stuff.
I told them to go out with themselves, or with single friends lo.
And if you are one of the pathetic singles out that, you will know what they replied.

And those couples.
Sweet lovely couples.
Gosh~
They make you wanna fall in love la~
Hehes.

Okok, cut the crap.
Let's pray hard that my kitchen won't get burnt on Friday.
Yue's a disater in the kitchen i guess.
=X

Cut the crap.
Something BAD happened last minute.
The proj is gonna be due.
Problems problems everywhere when it comes to project.
And i never like projects unless.....
Hmmms..

Okok..
Cut the crap and head back to work.
I doubt i can sleep tonight.
Nahs, not for C&I.

I think, it would need alot of getting use to.
Stepped into my life, stole the key.

-mi ch elle

T.T

Can just take the knife and stab myself.
I seriously think i am the slacker in my class.
So many times i mentioned that i will head BACK to study.
Just how many times is it true?!
T.T

Was watching Hana Yori Dango actually.
Japanese version, season 2.
watched till epi 4, part 4, the video got removed!
Because the tokyo thingy found out and it violated their rights.
I WANT TO WATCH!
I am inlove with Matsumoto Jun once again.
T.T

Okok, no more show to watch, so that means, seriously, back to studying liaos.
T.T

MUGGING SURVIVAL KIT

I can never really keep on a diet during exam period.
Dang~
Why?
JUST LOOK AT MY MUGGING SURVIVAL KIT!!!
Okok, bought a mugging survival kit.
Cost me $4.70 this time.
Cheaper my 30cents!
A veggie drink and a mini pack potato chips.
=)
Hehes.
Okok.
GET TO WORK LE!!


Jiayou beh~

YAWNS

Just woke up from a super short sleep nap.
So, can start studying now already!
= )

I might really need everyone's help to call me..
Maybe at 9.30?
Thanks!
= )

Gosh.
Am back home!
Felt that today's lesson is abit waste of time.
Okok, not waste time but $$(*read transport*).
Just going back for a 2hours plus lecture.
MEant for revision.
T.T
But at least, it refresh my mind.
Ready to set down to work liaos.

BUT AM SO AFRAID FOR THINKING SKILLS.
The more i think. the more i feel that i can't pass that module(*shame on you Mi Ch Elle*)
(*Screams: KIAKIA*)

Okok.
Can feel the last drop of faith in me seeping away silently.
Gosh.
What is wrong?!
So afraid that i can't pass all my modules.
I dont want to change class.
T.T

Never mind about that.
There is nothing i can do about that.
I am quite unlucky recently, so nahs, no hope for my exams too.
T.T
Nono! Kick those thoughts away.

Okok, Having C&I test tomorrow.
Test starts at 11 , SO PLEASE DO CALL ME AN HOUR BEFORE!!
I will really appreciate that.


Let's get to study now.
= )
Wish me luck people.
= )

Did these two quiz when i just reached home.
Love the part about the brain.
Hate the 12yr old part.
Everyone says i dont think like a kid.

You Are 12 Years Old

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

Your Brain's Pattern

You have a dreamy mind, full of fancy and fantasy. You have the ability to stay forever entertained with your thoughts. People may say you're hard to read, but that's because you're so internally focused. But when you do share what you're thinking, people are impressed with your imagination.

The Arena

Watched the Arena.
Kinda nice and interesting but why must Singapoer debates be so...aggressive?
Okok, the round i saw today is from United World College and Nanyang Girls.
United World College really did well.
They spoke with such class.
Especially a girl called Maddie.
She's so cool.

Okok, harsh to say, i don't really like the opponent. Which is Nanyang Girls.
Yes, points points points but no facts.
No evidence.
And they spoke with such aggression.
Okok, not forgetting the point that they were a wee bit rude during rebuttal.

But they were given a harder stand. So yeaps.
Hard to argue over that point.

So, United World College won!!
YAYS...
Love the way they speak.
Polite, with confidence, fluent and stuff.
= )

Ok la, in the blood.
Get Singaporean students to speak like that in schools(*well, at least my school*) and they will be laughed at.
Just be honest, we are not open minded enough.
We are just narrow minded people.
Really.
Tsktsk.

Shuddup mich.
= )
Shall get to studying now?
But i am so sleepy!!!
The lights are blinding me already.
=(

Nothing much interesting today...
Except that the feeling is back again.
I remember i got this feeling back in band during the syf training period.
Well, tend to get scoldings and it's a rather tense situation with Os coming i think.
And yeaps, i got so stressed up and tired then at times, i was unable to speak.
Well, initially i was freaked out.
I mean, the feeling is very bad. I don't really know how to describe the feeling.
But initially, there will be this tendency to force the voice out.
The need to voice out everything.
It's all in the mind. Sorta like the body going against the mind.

It happened quite a number of times during band.
Hmmm. But ever since then, no more.
Till today.
And well, afterall, i am sorta used to it.

Tried to calm my mind, tell myself that it's all in the mind.
Tried to pronounce words or rather, try to voice out.
But just decided to let it go since it will be back to normal once it loosen up.
Ar...been so so long.
Thought it had left me already, so afterall, i am still like that when i am mentally tired.
Well. yeaps.
Won't use the word stressed because i am not feeling so.
But what's up today.
I have no idea.
Got pretty much upset when they were nearing Bishan Park.
I miss my super hip grandma.
Ok, she left for quite some time. But whenever i am near the temple or well, visiting her in the temple, i just feel so ...arh~~~~
Never mind about that.

I am weird recently!!
Okok, let's update on stuff today.
Went to school and had maths.
After that to Tiong Bahru market to eat.
= )
Had yummy duckie noodles and YUMMY mango sago...
= ) YUMMIES!!
It's awesome with tadpole like thingy. Really look like tadpole!
Had fun biting them.
=X
Then took the lorry to Bishan and back home.
Tired to really update on stuff.
Lovely to be back home.
(*screams: I LOVE MY ROOM*)
Was mentally tired today.
So much thinking.

Woke up in the morning on the wrong note.
Had a super bad dream last night.
So wanted to call.
Bad dream.
Woke up with this saddening thought in mind.
Tsktsk!
Can see the hands of reality opening up to grab me.
= )
Lols, it's reality welcoming me.
Hmmms.
Realized that, you really got to be strong.
Ok, at least pretend to be strong.
I don't know.
I suddenly feel that, no space for weakness.
Just got to be strong.
At all cost.

So yeaps.
Hmmms, after all, it's my life.
Tsktsk!
Junejune asked me or rather said something that triggered my thoughts.
She mentioned something about promises.
Okok, i remember what happen now.
We were at Tiong Bahru market and i saw this really OLD couple holding hands.
So sweet.
They are really so sweet together and they are really old.
I looked at them and i told junejune, if i ever live to such old age, i want to be like them too.
Well, she replied me something.
Do you think, couples can last so long?
*Shakes head*.
Well, at least not in this generation.
Maybe the older generation can.
But not now.
I told you i am living in the wrong era le!
Couples separate with the simplest reason.
Tsktsk.
Then we mentioned about promises.
Okok, a dumb one also understand that there is no such thing as eternity promises or such crap.
PLEASE GIRLS, wake up!
Lols, fine, i am just a wet blanket.
But really, no such thing as I LOVE YOU FOREVER(*did i just said that?! Omg*).
Junejune also dont believe in such stuff.
But afterall, there is no harm in having hope that such things will happen right~
Okok, even if it's 0.00000001% chance of happening, also must hope.
It's a happy thing to be dumb at times.
= )

Oh yes, memories flashed past me when we were sending Randy home.
Afterall, i stayed at Hougang for quite some time too for silly reasons.
AND MEMORIES!
Really.
I can't believe it's all in the past.
Walking to the bus stop like at 5 plus in the morning just to take the bus to school when i was in primary school.
Ok, my life is not a smooth sailing one, but then, i am quite glad that i got that kinda past.
Ok, it's the past that determines who i am now.
So, if you feel you got a super bad past, be happy that it's all over and....it's your past that determines who you are now.
Everyone got a past.
= )
I miss the past but i am glad everything is going better.
= )
It let me appreciate everything that i have now.
= )

And if you are in a super bad state now, fret not, for it will become a past too.
= )
Listening to Forever Love by X Japan.
SUCHA NICE AND BEAUTIFUL SONG.
The member Hide from X japan....made the music more meaningful and beautiful.


Hideto Matsumoto (松本 秀人, Matsumoto Hideto, December 13, 1964–May 2, 1998), more commonly known by his stage name hide (pronounced /hi.de/), was a popular Japanese musician.

Hide died on May 2, 1998 in his Tokyo apartment. A roommate put him to bed after a night of drinking, but when she went to check on him an hour later he was not in his room. He was found hanged with a ripped towel in his apartment bathroom, the towel tied to the doorknob. He was barely alive when the ambulance arrived, and later died in the hospital. He was thirty-three years old.

i Got the info from wikipedia.
Hmmms.
There are many different interpretation for his death.
One reason that the fans gave was "Hide was known for performing stunts in attempts to scare others, and some suspect his death to be a stunt gone wrong".
Hmmms.
I am such a retard. Why is it that i didn't know about such news?

Forever Love

Sung by Dahlia
X Japan Movie Theme
Translation by Gramarye

Ah, please hold my heart, keep it close to you
Accept it as is, soaked with all my tears
Though times may constantly change, our love never will
And somehow, I know, everything will be fine
Will you hold my heart?
Catch my tears...brush them away, please
Right now, I feel it breaking
All my heart....

Forever Love Forever Dream
Lost in the flow of my memories
Though time may try to bury them
My love will grow, waiting here for you
Oh, tell me why
All I see is blue in my heart

Will you stay with me,
'Til the wind carries away the pain?
Again, drowning in sorrow
All my tears....

Forever Love Forever Dream
Stay with me now, hold me just like this
Embrace this heart that waits for you
Watching the dawn of the coming day
Oh, stay with me....

Ah, I wouldn't mind if it had to end
Alone, lost in the night that's surrounding me
Ah, there's nothing left to regret about
Except for your smile, far from me again

Forever Love Forever Dream
Stay with me now, hold me just like this
Embrace this heart that waits for you,
Watching the dawn of the coming day
Ah, will you stay with me
'Til the wind carries away the pain?
You are part of my life now, part of me....

Forever Love Forever Dream
I can't go on--I can't live this way
Oh, tell me why...oh, tell me true
Teach it to me--teach me how to be free

Forever Love Forever Dream
Flowing with tears that I tried to conquer
Awaiting change, as seasons do,
For eternity will be what we long for
Forever Love....

It becomes amusing to observe people.
When did i have such a perverted hobby?
Woops.
Things people say, things people do, just amuse me too much.
=X

Well, my hair is going haywire and i have lessons tomorrow!
Ar~~~ I hate bad hair days.
Dread!
Being a good girl, i shall walk out to the interchange tomorrow.
= )
So, that means, i got to wake up early!!
T.T
Waking up early, is not something hard for me already.
Tsktsk.
Looking at my very orible hair, i don't know what to do.
*sighs*

Wondering what to do tomorrow if the break is really long. Going back from school and home is like 30mins each.
Maybe i can just come home.
= )
I simply love staying in my room now.
Super cosy.
Hehes.
Let's hope believe that i can make this clean room stay.
= )
I am a tidy girl afterall.
Or am i not?(*tidy and organised are two words NEVER used to describe me*)
I remember going to Chris house that day.
AND she actually peeped into my bag.
She said i am still the same, so untidy.
OKies..Guilty of that.
My bags are never once tidy in Sec school. And it appears, it's never tidy in Poly too.
= )
Hehe.
That is ME mahs.
>.<

My tofu(*read Brain*) is totally going against me too.
Stuff i read on C&I.
Are all jumbled up. I rather i forget completely than them running all over the place.
T.T
And that results in reading AGAIN.
Such a *oh-so-fun* activity for the night before i go to sleep.
Oh yes, let's hope i wont drool on the pillow again.
Disgusting feeling.
=X

Shall be back to blog...tomorrow of cox...
Okok, till then, NIGHTS.
=)

Busy Busy.
With what? No idea.
Been super lethargic recently.
Wishing for the time to pass faster.
And wishing it won't move.
Contradicting.
I so want to lay in bed the whole day, rolling here and rolling there.
Admiring the sunlight shining in.
I so don't want to go near my study area, dread the papers!

Got duped.
Okok, too strong a word.
I am dumb enough....to fall for a joke!
T.T
Michelle, wakey wakey.
No more fantasy world, happily ever after.
Lols, thanks pal for that joke.
= )
Shan't stay in my dream land anymore.
Fantasies~
Wishes~
Fairies~
Toothfairies~
Shooting Stars~
Mr Sandman~
Mr Santa Claus~
Time for me to wake up? Stop all the dreaming that everything nice exist.
Perhaps.

What's the point of making a wish?
During birthdays. When you see a shooting star or when i trip and fall.
Wishes are nothing that brings disappointment.
Hmmmms.

What's with the post?
I went to sleep after feeling super guilty for throwing my temper on the phone.
Words hurt the most.
I understand.
Slept till7plus.
Drooled~ YUCKITY YUCKS.
No worries.
Feeling double lethargic now.
Oh gosh, tomorrow am having lessons.
How i look forward and dread it~ Maths for three hours, EC for X hours.
And not forgetting useless break times.
=.=
What a life.

Been so tied down with common test and "revision" that i have no time to even think about CNY shopping.
Everyone is so hype up with the CNY stuff and i havent been to Chinatown this year~
I love cny, but the thought of having exams during cny~ IS NOT NOT FUN~
But what to do, hate it, yet have to do it.
If i can be this supergirl, i will just forget the exams and party my time away.
Nahs, i love exams(*jaws dropped*).

Enough with the rambling michelle.
Time to head back to reality(*read papers*).


p/s: My friend told me to well, pass the information down.
9th FEBRUARY 2007 FRIDAY.
RESULTS FOR OLEVELS OUT.

Wish all goodie luck!
