CNY this year doesn't feel like CNY.
so much for me wanting to get a good rest.
days are still busy and hectic.
stupid hp spoilt on friday n caused me much inconvenience.
it was only then that i realised how dependent i've became on my hp.
and i realised that SAMSUNG sucks.
>.<
i want to rest.
haven't been a couch potato for damn long.
ever since i moved back into hall i think.
i haven't sat down on e sofa n just watch tv
single tasking of watching tv
i want to go to pulau ubin to cycle
i want to go to east coast to sit by the beach and listen to the waves and watch the sunset
i want to go to Starbucks or Coffee Bean or any cafe and just sit down n read a book
i want to go to the library and randomly pick a book to read
i want to go sing karaoke
i want to take an evening walk in Bishan Park
i want to be able to read the newspapers everyday
i want to lie on my bed at home, snuggle in my blanket and just listen to the songs playing on the radio
i want to crash other unis and tour their campus
i want to watch drama serials without having the nagging worry that i have hw undone
i want to have a stayover with the Jingles
i want to get a drink
but alas, all these are WANTS
=(
Recording Fragmented Memories
Tuesday, January 27, 2009
Thursday, January 01, 2009
i finally packed and tidied my room.
strictly speaking, its just 1 table.
but i found alot of stuff:
-O Levels entry proof
-A levels entry proof
we used to hate receiving entry proofs because of wad they bring and imply. but ironically, when exams are over, they provide fond memories. i guess people tend to remember the hardest period of their lives most clearly, and smile when recalling them.
-2005 calendar notebook from CNB
-hwa chong results slip
-hwa chong integrative service-learning training 2006 (i totally don't remember anything about this!)
-Shuyi's 2006 RJC maths paper + answer key
-Brandon Nah's 2007 chem paper + answer key
-2007 Singapore Cambridge GCE Exams Instructions for candidates
i still have ALL my A levels notes and papers nicely filed up on my table.
duno y but i just cannot bear to throw them away
im a rubbish collector!
>.<
many people are concluding their 2008 and looking forward to 2009
2008 has been an unique year for me
working instead of studying
and i experienced alot alot
which not only will not bring me down,
but only make me stronger and enrich my life experiences
cant believe that 1 year just flashed past like that
im glad that im still in contact with my best friends =D
let 2009 be a fresh and good year!

a new beginning, a new start
i got a new haircut..at the new Chapter2 in Jurong Point
under recommendation by someone
haha
the stylist and service there is not bad =)
when everything was done and when i saw myself in e mirror
i had a de javu feeling
like seeing my old self again
the old, guai-looking Evonne
not the golden hair ah lian -_-"
i haven't seen myself likdat for very long
5months actually
i have no idea why i felt like that
no more wild girl look
no more loud hair to attract attention
and shuyi u'll have a more difficult time looking for me n bels next sem *winks*
its 'bye bye' to that ah-lian evonne
and everything that had happened while i was sporting that hair
its 'hello' to the new-cum-old evonne
my hair looks softer now!
yay
maybe next time when i get sick of this style
and when things are not going smoothly for me
i shall go snip off my hair again
and cut it dammnnnn short like a pixie cut
(since now i know i don't look bad in it, i'm not afraid of it)
haha!

but then i just saw Jiahao4's true age
its 5 years old

2008 reflections
Yay back from Hall Trip to Malaysia!
it seriously was a camwhoring trip..
as some of you had seen on facebook 0.o
albeit e number of pics taken wasn't as much as what we had expected >.<
since there was a lot of travelling done on the bus,
i had enough time to think things through and do my 2008 reflections
and i realised that change is constant and inevitable
after going through changes that happened 1 after another
at such amazing speed
that i could barely keep up
it dawned on me (although kind of late) that there's nth i can do
its a fact of life and not due to my lack of ability or whatever
there's no point wondering why and how
once things happen, they happen
'used-to-bes' become past tense and they get etched into history
and there's no use in thinking about them
why did it take me so bloody long to get this into my head?!!
i guess i just need a REAL big wham, which i've gotten
lolx
i need to:
-stop nua-ing around! the only things i've done the past few days is to eat, sleep, talk, and travel
-stop procrastinating! and start doing things that im supposed to >.<
-start exercising! i've been on a rampant food feast since exams ended 0.o

things that shuyi would post if she had a blog
haha i said i would blogged about this!
If Ms Fong Shu Yi has a blog, here's what she would say:
1. the revenue of store 8-11 (store in belicia's hall 8) is mostly contributed by 1 person, namely the Business Manager herself, Belicia Ong.
2. Evonne n Lihui were so excited to be back in the Bukit Timah area, which is sooo near their beloved Hwa Chong JC, that they kept reminiscing about the memories they had during their short 2 years there, and failed to take note that the bus they took is going in the opposite direction. And while checking the bus directory to confirm they're not wrong, someone said 'dun worry this is our di pan. won't go wrong'. and then they were wrong and boarded the bus going in the wrong direction -_-"
3. Lihui has volunteered to do a template for me if i decided to revive my blog. And the template would contain just one SUPER BIG tagboard for friends to tag and keep it active. Since i always have nth much to blog about, Lihui suggested that i post my very-short blog entry on the tagboard.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and this is what Evonne is going to blog about:
after going to Weilin's blog and saw her post about her sms to Nicholas and his reply, i suddenly miss Nicholas ALOT. alot alot alot. all the crap and fun and laughter. jc would not have been so fun without the 3 of you around. im just sooo grateful to have u all around =)

Insights...
Been watching the Channel 8 9pm show about Aids recently
and i think its a very sad show
i don't know if its cause the cast is good or what
but i just feel so sad and touched whenever i watch the show
escape from exams =X
For every misfortune that happen,
there's a good that will befall.
For every mistake made,
there's something called forgiveness.
For every flaw that exist,
there's something called acceptance.
For every discrimination that occur,
there's something called embrace.
For every thing that is rushed and hurried,
there's something called patience.
For every ounce of hate present,
there's something called love.
Love, that encompasses all of the above.
Forgiveness of the greatest mistake
Acceptance of the weakest flaw
Embracement of the uncontrollable discrimination
Patience of the sprinting of time
And when you add all of them together
You get something even greater than hate
And its called love.
And its because of all these
that we learn to have something called hope.
If hope has a shape and takes on a form,
I would like to know
So that I can find it
For every single thing on this earth that happen,
there will be an equal and opposing force.
(Newton's third law...apparently it doesn't apply to science only.
No wonder he's a genius haha =p)
As we grow up, we get exposed to more and more things
Wonders of the world
Ugliness of humans
And all these things will soon clutter and blind our sight
of the simplest things in life.
When we were young, we get satisfied so easily
So innocent and simple-minded
because happiness was at its core
As our world gets more complicated,
we lose sight of the core of happiness
running blindly in pursuit of all those things that we thought were important
what's the point of achieving them
when you've lost the most important thing of all
Wealth
Popularity
Career
Social status
All these are so superficial and only belongs to the exterior
What's the point of having them
when there's no one to share it with
when you can be standing in the middle of the crowd
centre of attraction at a party
but still feel so empty and hollow inside
And then you start to slow down and look around
and find the superficial things fading away
and realise that the people who do not have them
actually are so much happier
for when the heart is full
it fills up all the gap that the absence of these material items leave behind
and you'll realise that the simplest things
actually bring the greatest amount of happiness
because the core will never change
regardless of what happens outside
If chance comes in front and dangle in front of your face
Would you have the courage to take it
And enter into untouched terrain
Or would you rather spend your energy thinking,
Analysing about something that you'll never get the answer
Unless you reach out your hand to grab it.
Isn't it a pity
To give up on something that may succeed
That may just work out just the way you want it
How would you know
Unless you try
And you'll never know what is the answer to the hypothetical 'what if'
Because when chance presented itself in front of you
Free to take and free to own
You did not take it
Its so ironic that some people have to fight so hard to get chance to appear
Yet some people simply refuses to take it into their hand when chance appears
Its such a pity to have to give up without a try, without a fight
Knowing that there's a chance things will work out
Yet because, the answer will never be known.
Sometimes we just have to learn to ignore our brain
And follow the little voice inside our heart.
I have no idea why i suddenly have these insights
It just popped out and keeps flowing while watching the Aids show
And these are just those that came out in English
I have some in Chinese 0.o
Lolx
maybe i've been forcing my brain into overdrive these days
and while i've been using one half of my brain to study
the other half also work itself by coming up with all these stuff
thats soooo not technical
hahaha

笑忘歌 - 五月天
屋顶的天空是我们的
放学后夕阳也都会是我们的
不会再仰慕更多了
唱一首属于我们的歌
让我们的伤都慢慢慢的愈合
明天我又会是全新的 OH
青春是手牵手坐上了
都不回头的列车
总有一天我们都老了
不会遗憾就OK了
伤心的 都忘记了
只记得这首笑忘歌
那一天天空很高风很清澈
从头到脚趾都快乐
我和你 都约好了
要再唱这首笑忘歌
这一生只愿只要平凡快乐
谁说这样不伟大呢
自己和自己打一架了
想都想不通方正就是这样了
不会再流泪更多了
有多少错误重蹈覆辙
有多少痛苦还不是都过来了
想起来甚至还会笑呢 OH
青春是人生的实验课
错也错的很值得
就算某天唱起这首歌
眼眶会有一点湿了
伤心的 都忘记了
只记得这首笑忘歌
那一年天空很高风很清澈
从头到脚趾都快乐
我和你 都约好了
要再唱这首笑忘歌
这一生只愿只要平凡快乐
谁说这样不伟大呢
伤心的都忘记了
只记得这首笑忘歌
那一年天空很高风很清澈
从头到脚趾都快乐
我和你 都越好了
要再唱这首笑忘歌
这一生只愿只要平凡快乐
谁说这样不伟大呢
这一生只愿只要平凡快乐
谁说这样不伟大呢
谁说这样不伟大呢
they're so old already...
how come their song n lyrics are still so youthful and apt for e teenagers
like kids likdat
lolx
=)

i realised that its really very convenient to have a car.
especially when u need to travel to:
(a) ulu places like NTU - its not called pulau NTU for nth
(b) inaccessible places like industrial estates and parks which have absolutely lousy transport
(c) anywhere in generally when u're hard pressed for time.
Its very useful when you need to
-pass people things urgently
-collect stuff
-for delivery
-for late nights out (then no need to fret about public transport, nightrider blah blah)
i think im stressed unconsciously.
im not eating well these days.

adventure on a monday morning
Hmmm...its monday morning 9.40am.
what is Evonne doing blogging here?!!
isn't she supposed to be at class?!!
=P
let me recount what happened this morning...
another entry to my book on 'Interesting Stories on e Mrt'
haha!
i woke up late dis morning...
*note! but still can get to sch on time if i dun drop by my hall before class.
so i decided to take e Mrt to Raffles Place and change to Boon Lay
since its supposedly shorter
and i was thinking, now is e morning peak hour so e trains should be veri smooth
and time taken to transfer from each line wouldn't take too long
everything went fine...until Raffles Place
boarded e East West line after waiting for 5minutes
(so im supposed to reach Boon Lay at 8am)
and then...
e train cant move.
it jus stayed dere n open n close the doors for god knows how many times
until e announcement came
'pls alight cos e train is not for passenger service'
what nonsense.
so obvious its cos e train got some problem
so waited another 5min for e next train
how is it possible to squeeze 1 trainful of pple into another crowded train?!!
ok i was lucky enough to squeeze in
but then at outram park station
e same thing happened again
E SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN
so a normal trip from Raffles Place to Boon Lay takes 30min
i took 25min to travel from Raffles Place to Outram Park
which is only 2 stops away from Raffles Place
and then there's this China woman
who keeps pushing to get into e inside of e cabin
so i got pissed off
and i PURPOSELY push others around me
making a big show
of me trying to let her pass through
showing that there's no space
yet this woman keeps wanting to move
ha!
and then when i reach Boon Lay
no no no
things are not over!
e entire platform was soooooooo bloody crowded with people
that those who alighted cant go off
those who came up to take e train cant board
and the control station actually made an announcement
asking pple to wait for e next train if they cant board e current one
what a joke
e entire train was practically empty
because those who alighted are blocking the doors
those who wanna enter cant go in
and then
cos there was this whole jam thingy
until pple got stuck at e escalator
it seriously is scary
the escalator just keeps moving and bringing pple up
when those who reach the top cant clear the area in time cos too crowded
and those behind just keeps crashing into pple in front
and all e while e escalator just continue bringing pple up
its seriously scary
u cant move....but e escalator under ur feet keeps moving
OMG
this is e first time i see sth likdat
even during Xmas or Countdown or any major event in town
nth likdat happened
so i spent like what, 15min getting from e platform
down to e gates
-_-"
and at this point of time
i was wondering
given e sequence of events so far
would e bus have some hiccup also??
lolx
stupid Mrt
im sure we pay so much fares
for your so-called 'increase in quality'
with
more disruptions
more accidents
more jams
not enough trains
maybe next time i shld just stick to my normal route
can get a seat, can slp peacefully
and can get to sch on time
i took this picture in ulu NTU!
quite nice i think =)
lets hope this wk will turn out fine!
study study study....
Evonne
GO AND STUDY!
=(
what is Evonne doing blogging here?!!
isn't she supposed to be at class?!!
=P
let me recount what happened this morning...
another entry to my book on 'Interesting Stories on e Mrt'
haha!
i woke up late dis morning...
*note! but still can get to sch on time if i dun drop by my hall before class.
so i decided to take e Mrt to Raffles Place and change to Boon Lay
since its supposedly shorter
and i was thinking, now is e morning peak hour so e trains should be veri smooth
and time taken to transfer from each line wouldn't take too long
everything went fine...until Raffles Place
boarded e East West line after waiting for 5minutes
(so im supposed to reach Boon Lay at 8am)
and then...
e train cant move.
it jus stayed dere n open n close the doors for god knows how many times
until e announcement came
'pls alight cos e train is not for passenger service'
what nonsense.
so obvious its cos e train got some problem
so waited another 5min for e next train
how is it possible to squeeze 1 trainful of pple into another crowded train?!!
ok i was lucky enough to squeeze in
but then at outram park station
e same thing happened again
E SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN

wa haven blogged for damn long...
typed out an entry last Sunday to record what i thought of e OVE canvassing event
but i think its waayyyyy overdue already
went J8 to take a walk just now
and i saw this new slogan by New Balance
and was quite struck by it
like its so apt...
admire e marketing personnel who came up with it
if i dun rem wrongly
its sth likdat:
every runner has a struggle
between pain and pleasure
between the good days and the bad
between love and hate
that's why you need new balance
(im not sure of the last sentence but that's not e point)
like wow!
then i was doing some stuff for cca
and then im like wow wow wow for some of the things companies do
which makes me even more interested to find out what marketing is like
think its kinda cool =)
3weeks more to exams
how can time pass so fast!!!
1 semester is almost over
half of my freshie year is about gone
so fast!!!
time for me to do some reflections
or should i tell myself not to think too much
haha

venting entry hahaha
recess week is here! but somehow i think i wont have enough time to finish whatever i need to do. cca stuff, projects, catching up with old friends, exercise, and most importantly, my studies. studies is the most impt yet i seem to be paying it the least attention =X and somehow i still dun feel e stress YET. guess i really need to see the deadline and feel e urgency before i'll really start becoming efficient. otherwise i'll just keep thinking i have lots of time, which sadly is not the case.
i thought my results of 15/20 for my quiz is not bad already. its quite good actually. im satisfied with it, considering that i din finish studying and i only kinda looked through my notes what, 2hrs before the quiz? and then i start hearing people who got 17, 18, 19/20, with 19/20 being the NORM, and i damn sian. WHAT THE FUCK?! theory of relativity. no wonder they say in nbs if u dun hav a minimum GPA of 4.0 u're lousy.
went running after quiz on wed nite and oh my gosh, my fitness level SUX to the core. disgusted with myself. see the slope at hall 3 n 16 then gif up le. n after e run my legs weren't even aching. the last time i rem, i dun recall myself being so mentally weak. the view from ADM is super nice though =)
met up with Yosi and Jian Lun (ex-colleagues) and got arrowed by Jian Lun for no rhyme or reason. thanks for e lesson on human relations anyway. he said that no matter how busy u r, if u truly have the heart to do sth, u will get it done. if not its all empty talk. thoughts do not materialise themselves if u don't take any action. 'don't make promises that u cant fulfill' and 'im stating the truth. which part of what i said is not true?' wa. sounds so awfully familiar. e visit to his hall and looking at how he conduct himself made me realised some things too.
finally back home after 1week in hall. was darn proud of myself that i stayed 5 nights in a row and felt fine. Credit goes to Huiying! cos she was around everyday the entire wk. it feels good not to return to an empty room =D please stay more often! met up with s73 pple at West Mall and went home happily, only to realise that I DID NOT BRING HOME MY HP CHARGER. no wonder i felt sth was wrong when i left. stood at my room door for so damn long n YET i din realise. F***. so tml im gg to travel ALL the way back to ntu to take my charger. if only my hp can be ready for collection tml. ULTIMATE SIAN.
thurs.
i duno how i'll feel.
like what nicholas said, i need to feel a sense of loss before i'll even start to appreciate and realise how much it actually means to me.

they can only support you while you solve them.

Hwa Chong MAF 2008
in my 2 years in hwa chong, i've always thought that mid-autumn festival is stupid. and i always wonder in amazement why the seniors would even wanna come back, and why they can get so high and excited over something so stupid like dancing mass dance and singing all the songs. but now after i graduate from hc, i myself became a senior, and i too am excited, very very excited, in fact to go back to hc for maf. it doesn't matter that we duno some of the songs. it doesn't matter that we duno how to dance the mass dance well. we still had fun. because MAF is an occasion for seniors. for us to all come back and meet up on 1 night. all of us are so busy with our own schedules, in different unis, and for the guys in ns. it certainly helps to bring all of us back together to the place that we spent 2 years in. when i first started sch in hc, i felt like its going to be 2 looooooong years. yet everything just went past in a flash. n now that im in 1st year in uni, i look to the future and i see 4 loooong years ahead. but actually it wont be that long. half a semester have passed by without me realising it. 2 more wks and its my recess wk. i can say that im hapi to know that i have 1 wk break for my studies. but i cant say the same for other areas for my life. cos after that 1 wk break, my family, close frenz, are all leaving me to go overseas for sometime =( chance for me to test how independent i really am. staying in hall made me realise how useless n weak i am. but im not going to stay like this forever. i'll learn!
the wonderful light-up
06s73!
Rare though true love may be, it is less rare than true friendship
