PLEASE VISIT MY NEW BLOG AT www.geejaywhy.blogspot.com!

sorry everyone! i know i haven't been updating in a long, long while! well, i'll be leaving for australia tonight and i will only be back on Christmas Day! so i guess i'll be spending part of christmas in australia as well as on the plane? hopefully there's something exciting in store for us then! well, at least i know that something exciting is in store for all sevenone peeps, whether u are or were part of sevenone during the first 3 mths! seems like it's gonna be rather interesting! all thanks to the organiser, huixuan! sigh, too bad i can't join u guys nxt wk, if the malaysia trip is confirmed. haha, actually i'm secretly hoping that the response wouldn't be too enthusiastic or the least to say, overwhelming, cos den it'll be held nxt yr and i can go!ah...but i know that's pure evil and selfish! cos i heard that some of the guys may not be able to make it nxt yr due to army posting i think. anyway it's just i thought la, hehe, i will not entertain it. well, hope u guys have a thrilling time at Malaysia, and hopefully the guys will play bodyguards and offer the girls the sense of security that will need!haha!

ok, let me back track a little to prom, since i've not been updating! well, prom was rather fun, albeit quite nerve-wrecking cos i was running for the ms body beautiful title. we (there were 3 contestants in all including me) had no clue as to what we were supposed to perform on stage until we were backstage awaiting the host/emcee on stage to call us upstage. i was fortunate though, that what they called upon us to do was what i love to do - dance! but i was still feeling a little uneasy. thanks to u guys though, i managed to cool myself down and tried my best. thank you all the sevenone gals who came to the front of the stage to cheer me on! thank you all the chi dancers too who came forward to give me your support! i really appreciate what all of u did. i doubt i would have the courage if not for all the moral support all of u lent me. thank youu!!! :D
haha, so basically half the time spent at the prom was devoted to photo-taking..what else? nothing much to say abt that. well, den after prom we adjourned to the room we booked at ritz-carlton. we didn't stay there long though. soon after we got changed into comfortable clothes and shoes (some of us came to comprehend the pain and suffering behind bound feet) before leaving the hotel and walking abour aimlessly in the empty streets. acutally we weren't wandering around, we were attempting to make our way to esplanade, which was apparently supposed to be nearby. however we took an interminably long time before we got to our destination, cos we took some roundaout way! we felt absolutely cheated when we realised that esplanade was just opposite (if i rmb correctly)! we didn't spot it cos whoever in charge of running the esplanade decided to be economical and stinge on the money forked out to pay for the electricity bill! the place wasn't lit up and we couldn't see it against the dark night sky. so the long walk got some of us hyper (ppl like kq and shimin) and some of us groggy and yearning for the soft touch of a bed.

when we finally reached the esplanade, it was early in the morning. the post-prom party was still on and the music was still pounding in the club. well, we resolved not too waste 16 bucks just to enter the place, so we wandered arnd yet again. and we began to experience how delinquents felt, roaming in the streets late into the night. we met ritz there and kq kept harping on him trying to act paikiah when he's not. haha. oh yes, i missed out a brief but frightening encounter on the road before we made it to the esplanade. there were some guys on motorbikes who seemed to belong to some gang. there sped across the road and hooted and cat-called at us while we were crossing the road! we were all scared that they'll try to do something funny, so we quickly ran off. luckily nothing unfortunate happen. phew!

ok, quite a long entry i have here! i've to return to my packing...make sure nothing is missing! the cab will be arriving at nine. i'm hoping that i'll get to view the movies i've missed out in the theatre! like stepup :) pls pls show stepup on the plane! bye for now then! :)

today i visited the blogs of some ppl in our class.

i didn't know nigel had a blog. i realised how little i understand my classmates. i realised how disjointed our class is. it's a class tt has been coercively pieced together, like a jigsaw puzzle tt doesn't fit. i guess i perceived this much earlier, it's just tt i've been avioding this fact and have been unwilling to accept it. until i read those blogs. those words which i share the same sentiments with are laid out before me, and i can no longer not be honest with myself. i must say i am not very happy in my class and i think many others agree with me. and the worst thing is tt the dance studio (ok, college studio) is not a place where i can seek refuge in whenever i want. unlike nanyang. it's like wat ritzley said: he will feel lost without vball. so will i without dance. now u know why all the more i feel so frustrated abt how the chi dance society is being run in hwa chong. oh noo. i dunno why but i suddenly feel like crying. ok, actually i am alr cryin.

i can't believe that almost one and a half years have passed and yet i have hardly spoken to some ppl in class. nigel's right. (i read his super old entry) it's more like having friends and not a class, honestly. yet it's so ironic that we lack class spirit and bonding but we share similar wishes of reverting back to our sec sch days. and since this is not possible, we all can't wait to graduate in order to get out of this cage, where we are pinned down, our movement hindered, and our joy suppressed. i can't wait to be released, can't wait to fly free, away from all this crap, where i can be myself - fully and comfortably.

don't get me wrong. it's not exactly the people who are bad or mean, but some how all of us come together and happen to not be able to click very well. Sometimes i wonder wat i'll be like in another sch. will i end up a different person? will i have better prospects and opportunities in their dance society? will i be able to form very strong bonds with my class and hold these close to my heart? or does the problem just lie with me? is it only me who's the antisocial one? is it only me who feels this way? but no, no. others feel this way too.

i'm confused. i don't know what to think. good nite.

ah...i've been scolded for not updating :( okok, i noe i've been lazy. it's a wonder how time flies! it's may now and i've not updated in a month.

looking back, quite a number of things have happened since i last blogged, and many are to do with dance. the month of april and early may was a time for concerts - lots of it. i went for 'burn the floor', vj dance nite, hc strings concert, and rj dance nite. i must say after attending the concerts, i was left feeling depressed. and when this feeling of depression sort of wore off, feelings of resentment and anger rose in me. i was resentful of being in hwa chong, where little respect is given to chinese dance. the school also places little emphasis on dance, as we've limited funds. this poor reputation of chi dance is not entirely the fault of the school, but also, i will boldly announce, our teachers. we lack a committed dance tr as well as a tr-in-charge who is willing to push for changes - change of tr, fighting for more funds and a better studio tt can be called a dance studio and not a college studio. a studio that is the very least clean, with rules prohibiting anyone and everyone to step inside with their shoes on. i'm not even asking for a more spacious studio with more mirrors or air-conditioning or a nice parquet floor. i just sincerely hope that one day there will be a place called the dance studio in hwa chong, where the privileged use of the studio goes to the dancers and not anyone, for PE etc, where everyone steps in with their dirty shoes on. i'm sorry if i sound harsh (ok, i'm not that sorry), but it's after this month tt all my discontentment towards hc dance, accumulated since last yr, have culminated to such a pt tt my feelings of indignation are beginning to spill out. i can't seem keep it in any longer. disputes and complaints regarding costumes, the type of dances we're dancing, the type of performances we're performing for, the state of the studio in which we've to hold practices in, the availability of this pathetic studio have been extremely frequent since J1. i think i've to force myself to stop here, before i begin spewing out all the pent up frustration i feel rite now in a curt manner that i will have to be liable for. u can say that i regret joining hwa chong dance, and that the only dance that i find acceptable is our cny 2006 dance. the costume was the only one that to me, was tolerable.

i still can't believe that we're not going to have a dance nite and will never, throughout our stay in hwa chong, when almost every other jc is having, or have had a dance nite, and hc MAD is also holding a dance nite and we're not.

okay, i guess the only thing worth rejoicing about, pertaining to dance, that happened last month was the joining of salsa class with shiyan at studio wu. we've joined one lesson so far, and i think the tr's not bad. she's very pretty, hot and humorous too! :) can't wait for the coming class this fri! alr missed one last fri due to vesak day :(

to all those out there who do not share the same kind of passion i have for dance and are wondering what's the big deal i am making out of this, do pardon me. ignore what i've said, but do not ever scoff at dance. to those who share the same passion as i do, as well as my dancemates, i hope u all understand what i am feeling...

haven't blogged since blocks started...sigh, cos well, my results were very depressing, and i didn't feel like blogging about it.. well, i deserve it anyway. shall treat this as a form of punishment for being soo lazy during the hols!

another reason why i didn't blog was because there were some problems at home too. but everything's fine now, and i am glad :) after an episode that happened earlier this month, i feel that our family is even more strongly bonded together, and i earnestly hope that this feeling of unity will continue. (not that we weren't well-bonded as a family before this, but i guess perhaps it wasn't as strong?)

i also sense a greater depth of friendship between me and some of my friends..some of my friends (actually maybe only one more la) seem to confide in me, and that makes me happy. cos i realised that many of my friends don't tell me their problems, we just laugh and talk to each other. we're more like fair-weather friends - friends who only come together to have fun. i guess that's because i don't socialize enough and speak to them often? so they don't feel comfortable telling me much. that's sad, but i guess nothing much can be done.

on a brighter note, this coming mon, 10th of april is my sister's birthday! i guess we'll be celebrating tmr. maybe have dinner at some hopefully fancy restaurant :) ohoh, and i got a new phone quite recently. actually i got it during the march hols, it's just that i haven't blogged about it yet. it's a pretty common phone: sony ericsson k750i.

okayy, i've been online for a rather long time alr, and i'm going out later! byee

guess what's this queer-looking fruit? it is a hairless capsicum-like mini kiwi! ate it that day during lunch. it's called...a 'kiwi berry'! so cute right? it's pretty good too. it incorporates the best of both worlds - the sweetness of the berry, and a tinge of refreshing sourness of the kiwi. yummy! but it's expensive though. my mum says she bought it so that we know that at least we've tried something like it before, even if we don't ever buy it again.

ah...blocks (excluding the gp paper) officially begins tmr! heeelp...i don't feel prepared! tmr i've math and econs! sigh, TWO papers :( and on wed i've chem. bio's on fri, and bio spa skill A is on the following monday. boohoo. i haven't even started on bio yet..quite dead. oh noo. and i was just watching "peach girl" vcd yesterday..and, and the day before! couldn't resist :( :(

okay, i guess that's enough whining for now, if not i'll sound like kaiqian! i didn't know kaiqian whines quite a lot under stress! haha! anyway, it was my mum's birthday yesterday, but we didn't celebrate, cos we had a nice dinner together the day before. yup, cos my parents had some dinner and dance last night. i was home alone yesterday night...my parents went out for their function, my sis went out with her friends since morning, and my bro went out to play pool. so i was all alone at home :( so i got my "peach girl" vcd to keep me company..that's why i watched two!

moving on. my sis left for malaysia this morning! she's going there for one day with her friends to visit the melilea company there. my sis recently joined the company. organic drinks as well as facial products. me and my sis are using the products at the moment, and they seem quite effective! i think we'll continue using the products for quite some time. oh yes, and of course since my sis is there, she'll be doing some shopping as well. you know, singaporeans. i'm hoping that my mum will permit me to go over to malaysia for a day or something with my friends one day. hopefully this year! then can visit huixuan! :) haha, and play mahjong at her house cum gambling den, hee! :D can't wait! when i see how much fun my sis is having, i can't wait to get over with A levels!!! rawr.

oh yes. another piece of news. good news! i finally purchased my brand new handphone on friday! yippee! the only undesirable outcome is that i've been fiddling around with it since friday. there are too many functions la. so fun to play with and explore :) actually the phone's pretty common la. it's the sony ericsson K750i. it's truly a worth it buy; the functions are aplenty, and for a price of 338, it's very reasonable i must say. i don't regret buying it at all! now the next thing is to get a pouch to store and protect my handphone before it get's scratched and it's too late! i've asked my sis to look out for pouches while she's shopping :)

oh, and last thing. i just went for a run just now, then headed for the gym thereafter. this lady working out at the gym suddenly asked me for my weight then height! i wonder why.. but she seemed pleasant and friendly, so i told her. yup. she's pretty young i think. perhaps early twenties? hmmm, i don't think i've mentioned this before. more indians have moved into our condo, i think because some indian school had been set up within the vicinity not long ago. well, anyway, they've formed some sort of a yoga group. i saw a group of them gathered in the function room, equipped with their yoga mats! so cool right! hehe. the function room has clear glass panes as its walls - i didn't peek la. i wonder how's yoga like. haven't tried it before. but i think some poses that i've done in gymnastics and dance are similar ya.

all right, i've got to stop here for now. sikhi has moved house, and i'm feeling rather impatient - to visit her, that is. itching to zoom into her house and mess up her room. haha, no la. i'm not so mean! but she hasn't invited us over for house warming yet, i think cos everyone's busy with tests. so after blocks visiting siqi is on the agenda, so is hc chinese dance outing! i wonder whether we're gonna have some chalet or maybe bbq or something. hmm, how about the class? are we gonna have some class outing..?
