Oh, just checked my yahoo mail. For those DT readers out there, a teaser for DV 12:

The first sentence is:

"That was one hell of a kiss."

=) I don't think it's not gonna be slash though...
I must be the weirdest blog write that ever existed. I fill my own guestbook more than I write in here. Hehe.

Anyway, finally the two bloody tests of the week are over. Can enjoy...

Oh, you know the ACE worksheet they gave out in school... the one with the questions about yourself?? I want to answer some of them here. I think there should be lots to write for each question. I can't believe they only gave three lines for the answer. These are DEEP questions anyway.

I'll answer the easiest questions first.

What do you deeply enjoy?
HAH. Anyone who knows me well should be able to answer that.

I love anything pertaining to Harry Potter. Reading fanfiction, especially the Draco Trilogy by Cassandra Claire, reading the actual book, watching the movie etc.

I quite like LOTR too.

And I really enjoy movies. The cinema must be one of my favourite places on Earth.

Lemme see... wad else...

Oh, I love to go on HOLIDAY TRIPS! (Who doesn't really? heh.) I love taking the plane... I very much want to go to a place with snow... I'm terribly jealous of Turkey who has lolled and rolled about on the ice... no fair...

Umm... I love brownies with ice-cream! I love to eat prawns too. Prawns and rice are the rivals to each other for the status of staple food in my life.

Hmmm... what else do I enjoy doing...? Can't think anymore...

Sleeping... not that much... But I think I'm in need of sleep right now.

Haha. Shall go now. I feel like a brownie... yum yum..

Just came back from today's Friday expedition. I switched on the computer straight away. Hee.

I'm really flattered that Shen Onn and Duckie find my blog a resource for information about introverts and extroverts. Hehe... I havent any mews bout that topic now... It's kind of gone stale since the ACE workshop is over and everything...

I have sooo many things to do this weekend. I dont think it's quite possible to finish everything up. And there's no way I'm gonna do homework tonight. I wanna watch "Gangs of New York" tonight, on VCD of course.

Right now... I'm reading Chapter 1 of Draco Veritas. Again. I can't help it... there isnt much else to read these days...

Oh, oh! Remember the time I wrote bout the similarities between Smallville and DT??? I was right bout Chloe! Now she is definitely like Ginny! She kissed Clark because she was made to by that weird "Kyle" person. I think it's very unfair for her. If I were her, I'd want to dig a hole and bury myself in. *Shudders* So embarassing.

I feel really kinda sleepy now... Should I go to sleep? sigh... I shall continue reading DV till I find some good quotes... and that would be it for today...

Oh by the way, has duckie finished reading DV?

Since I just posted an entry in my own guestbook, I don't see the point of writing in here. But I still will anyway.

I'm not supposed to be online right now. I should be studying. My parents are complaining that I enjoy life too much. I can't believe it's actually WRONG to enjoy life. Don't they understand that school everyday is pure torture anyway? Why can't I enjoy myself on weekends then? They say I should watch less TV. I can try... but it will drive me mad. Just this past Sunday, when I made myself sit down and do homework, I got soooo bored and restless after a while that I just had to switch on the TV for some entertainment. I was almost desperate for something like a show or a music video.

I still havent decided if I'm gonna watch the Golden Globe Awards tonight. It starts at 11pm. And will probably end at... 1am. So unfair. These stupid mediacorp people. Why can't they put the GOOD programmes earlier??? No... they have to put the news, Wheel of Fortune, Living with Lydia... I don't really like TV game shows you know. I dunno why. It just irks me after a while. I hate talentimes too, because some of the participants will definitely sing or perform HORRIBLY and I hate that because then I will feel embarassed for THEM. I dont know why I'm like that... maybe it's because I'm a feeler. The same thing goes for Miss Singapore pageants. I hate watching it. The girls are MOSTLY dumb (I cant say dumb blondes because none of them are blondes) and they can never answer the questions correctly. Instead, they'll stand there blinking like stupid idiots. So to escape from all this suffering, I rather not watch.

Hehe... my sister just read my entry down there and she went... "Stupid thing to talk about!" Clearly she's no HP fan. Believe me I've tried. But she won't read the books. I guess it doesn't run in the family, this craziness over HP.

I shall go now. Turkey said she would come back after she fixes her Internet Explorer. I presume she couldnt fix it then. Too bad.

Since I may not be around tonight, I'll write now...

I'm an INFP! Introvert, Intuitive, Feeling, Perpective. Hmmmm.

I can't wait for OoTP!!! 21st June... that's the day it's released in Britain, Canada and Australia... Funny how HP dates stick in my mind the moment it's mentioned. Hmmm.... I can't wait... can't wait... I'm looking through my yahoo mail right now, and there's this person from DT-Group who was squealing bout the 5th book's release date. Hehe. HP craze is coming back... :) Eunice is trying to call Borders to find out the relesae date in S'pore. But it seems no one's answering the phone. *suspense*

Anywayz, bio talk was boring. Only caught the first part. After that the words were just flying past my ears.

I know I wanted to write stg interesting here... but I forgot.

Oh, Ms Leow's quotes today, centred around the theme: The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. But she didn't get very enthusiastic response to that. hee. Shall go now. Maghrib already.

Monday, January 13, 2003

I'm so happy I'm being so faithful to my blog... I'm actually coming here almost everyday! Hooray! Anyway, I wanna start my entry with a quote but since Sandy Leow didn't give us one today, I'll find one myself...

It's from this tiny 'Book of Love' that my mother got from her best friend on her wedding anniversary. Of course... all the quotes are bout love... here's one:

"Love quickens all the senses... Except common sense."

This is a funnier one...
"It's much wiser to love thy neighbour, than his wife."

Or this one...
"Love is a little word; people make it big."

Hmmm... I am bored now. I should be doing homework, not be online...

I watched "The Ring"!!!! The English version. I got scared all over again. I find it much scarier, cos you actually get to see the face of the girl aka monster. It's really horrid - wet, scabby, peeling skin, distorted face and yellow eyes. Ugh. There was one scene when the main character, the reporter, was choking on stg, and she pulled a whole strand of hair from her throat. It was absolutely yucky. Eeeeewww. Pity the guy had to die. He was quite cute.

I would like to put a quote. It's from the commonwealth one - "Nothing that is worth knowing can be taught."

Another quote...

"He who knows not and knows not that he knows not is ignorant,
Teach him.

He who knows and knows not that he knows is asleep,
Wake him.

He who knows not and knows that he knows not is a fool,
Leave him.

He who knows and knows that he knows is wise.
Follow him."

- Arabic Proverb
"Silence is Golden, Other times, it's just plain yellow." That was how Sandy Leow started off the morning yesterday. She's attacking us quiet pple again. As if we're all that oblivious. She might as well bring only the few of us aside, and reserve the quote for us. 409, in general, speaks its mind. I don't think the majority of pple in our class are quiet about what doesn't make them happy. And so, cowards they are not. And... cowards we are not either. There are many other ways to demonstrate courage than picking verbal fights with pple.

My brother left this morning, for China. Brought his MD player so he wouldn't get bored on the flight. I wonder how long it is, the flight I mean. I never asked.

My grandma's staying over at my place again. She's going off to Brunei tomorrow.

Brunei is actually a VERY boring place. I went there before. There are hardly any shopping centres or any sort of entertainmment centre. You get the impression that the people there simply love to sleep. Well... there was a night theme park... but it has closed down. Pathetic. But my granny's going to visit relatives, so that wouldn't be a problem for her.

Speaking of overseas trips, I could bring my albums of my M'sian trip this year. Would turkey like to see that? Since I saw your Canadian and Boston snow fun and all that... Let me know?

Alright! Alright! I get the message people! I am updating my blog now... sheesh. It's just that, like I said, when school starts I'll be too busy to write. See...? I was right.

Anyway, I watched Smallville yesterday, after a whole month without it (3 of the episodes were replaced with some movie in occasion of New Year etc, and for one of the episodes, I was holidaying in Malaysia.) I just can't help but notice some similarities btw Smallville and the Draco trilogy. I mean... Clark Kent is just like Harry Potter. The really, really good guy, the hero and they're both pining over a girl who's not interested in them. Clark and Lana, and Harry and Cho. hee. Lana doesn't seem all the typical American girl anyway, and that makes her more like Cho. My brother keeps saying Lana has a really unique look... I agree. She's pretty exotic. Then there's Lex Luther - the Draco Malfoy of Smallville. Filthy rich, horrible fathers (hehe... this is uncanny!) and most of all mysterious. You know... the good-but-evil thingy that just defines them... that so attracts most girls. Of course, if only Lex had blonde hair, then that'll be a similarity. heh. But he's bald, and I'm not saying that's a bad thing. I think he has made being bald look good. But anyways, I think Michael Rosenbaum has brown hair, so that's a no-no point. Draco was evil and has become good... Lex is good and will turn evil. That is just soooo sad... now that reminds me of Anakin Skywalker. sigh. Then there's Chloe. Correct me if I'm wrong, but do I see hints that Chloe may have some liking towards Clark? She said certain things in yesterday's episode that suggest that. If so, that'll make her... Ginny!!! hee... I'm so good at this! Then there's Pete. I could say he's Ron, but Ron deserves more credit than that. Pete is sooo extra, he'll turn into pesky Seamus if they don't give him something better to do real soon. Hermione... is not in the picture. hah.. I don't care... I hate her in the trilogy anyways. ;)

Phew... that's enough ranting on about Smallville.

Today was ACE. Ms Leow talked bout conflicts in the class. Of course, the inevitable topic came up - the not enough involvement from the whole class thing again. She kept saying the QUIET people, the QUIET people... she might as well have said "Shamiah, Eunice, Victoria, Diana..." sigh. I know, I know, they were trying to resolve conflict... but the way she said those stuff was aggravating. But Michelle must be one of the nicest "in" people there is. She's right I guess, bout how some people are maybe afraid to get involved, and not that they don't want to. That is just the way the world goes isn't it?? People are different and if everyone were to be so extroverted, then the earth would be too noisy or maybe even chaotic. Being an introvert is not a bad thing. We introverts have fun too. Even much more fun than other extroverts can imagine. Like my guestbook for instance. Who would have thought that three introverted birds can produce so much crap?

But really, people come from different backgrounds. By right, Muslim girls are supposed to be an emblem of modesty and all that... which basically means... no loud shouting, incontrollable behaviour, hysterical laughing and uncouthed(spelling?) manners in general. But you don't see such well-behaved muslim girls much, do you? That's because society changes and so people do. But some people do keep to their beliefs too... so you can't expect everyone to be extroverted can you?

So... our class core values: Respect, Integrity and Love.

My back is aching. Are you people satisfied now? I've written dunno how many words already... buhbye

For the sake that there be a new entry here, I shall update my blog. Hmm.

CCA Day was okay, I guess, though I didn't get to see the turkey at all. My club got at least 36 people interested! Hoorah! That's really good for my club, considering we usually get less than 20 every past year.

Pui Man, my vice-chairman, was late. When I called her at 7:30 in the morning, she was STILL SLEEPING. Really. That wasn't the first time either. I can't believe her.

I'm really dreading tomorrow. I mean... 5 subjects in ONE day. Gosh... can things thing get more exhausting??? Not to mention that I have a Photog committee meeting on Tue. I think I made the right decision to turn away the class secretary post this year. Tazneen calling me on my personal handphone is enough to drive me mad. Sandy Leow breathing down my neck might finally bring me over the edge. sigh. It is scary to receive calls from teachers you know. hmmph.

By the way, duckie? Congrats for being treasurer! They couldn't have found a more responsible person to hold money. Turkey is responsible too of course... heh.

ok... that all for now...
