Heehee

Anna, you're right. As always.

We have created a vicious cycle between the pair of us. Everyone seems to be stealing stuff from everywhere now.

I stole stuff off your blog. You stole stuff off my blog. Lionel stole stuff from your blog which was from mine. Mtyp stole stuff from my blog which was from yours.

We are evil ~

Well actually, we're not. We're just very bored people who become petty thieves. Blog thieves. :)

Add up your total and times it by 2. Then fill in the blank: My school year was ___ perfect.

My school year was 50% perfect.

I am inclined to agree with that I suppose but I don't really agree with some of the questions. So if left on my own, I'd say that my school year is almost as perfect as it gets.

:D

Rawr

Mr Lionel *glares* is pestering me for an update on my interesting life (he has officially lost it because as far as I know, I have none whatsoever).

So here's the update!

Today has been quite an eventful day. What with the syarahan and all that. And also we have other stuff like THE LAST DAY AS PREFECTS!!

WHEEEEEEE... but somehow in a way it's sad. Like I said in a past post.

Will still have to kick the habit of digging in my pocket for tie and tying it around my neck.

So, first the syarahan. How did it go?

Well, while SOME people could sit around for an entire four periods (Form 5 syarahan was the second session which was after the first four periods of sch) without worrying about anything, SOME OF US HAD TO MEMORIZE OUR SCRIPTS OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN!

But like I said, I only got informed on Mon. And I just practices last night.

Tiff, me, Al and Sjane kept walking up and down the entire school... anywhere but the hall to get rid of nerves. Then, some of them *cough* Emmeline and Cherling *cough* tried to skip the boring syarahans in the hall too and went back class to get their water... kononnya. Or was that Sing Yue's and Kai Lun's excuse?

And then this Kok and Ak... walk around the school like patrolling for what? HELLO, GUYS, LAST DAY AS PREFECTS REMEMBER? Haih. They doing spotcheck for students missing syarahan? HAH. *cough* Who missed the syarahan along with them? HAHHHH!!! Just wanted to excuse to escape the boring hall right? I can see through your tricks!

And then Noel and Sat ler? PATROLLING THE CORRIDORS FOR WHAT NOEL?! You can't trick me. Hello, earth to you, the corridors are EMPTY coz everyone was at the hall where YOU were supposed to be!!

I got excuse to skip the session in the hall. I'm a speaker. I was practising my syarahan! Well most of the time anyway. :)

Well, the syarahan was actually quite fun. Not the hyper active fun way. But it was kind of cool to have like your entire gang of friends and classmates screaming and roaring for you. The hall saw an upheaval it has been missing for a very long time.

Sorry guys, didn't really see the signs ( I know it spelt my name btw) you held up coz I was too frigging scared. All I could see was the mike and the stand and keep thinking: I'm gonna get this over with as quickly as possible.

But quite cool eh? Though I stammered my way through the speech, they stomped and stamped and cheered me after my syarahan anyway.

Oh and I still remember Tiff. She was so cute...
Tiff: Selamat pagi saya ucapkan kepada *bla bla bla* dan para peserta pertandingan syarahan. (gestures to the benches where the pesertas are supposed to sit... but since she's the 2nd last speaker and I'm the last speaker and the rest left... there's only me left...)
Some people turn and look at me.
Me: (waves cheerfully)

Haha. The syarahan was better than I expected I guess. ;)

Had a spotcheck too today. Last spotcheck ever. I think I didn't savour it like I should have. :D

This Aidan ah. Eeee, sometimes you feel like you want to strangle him. Ask him to do something never do properly wan ah.

For eg...
Me: (hands extra pen over to Aidan absently) Eh pass this back to Louis Chuo will you?
Aidan: (takes pen) Oh. (looks over at Louis who's a bit far away) (spots Yi Ping nearby)
Aidan: Eh, Yi Ping, take this pen.
Yi Ping: Oh.
Me: (finds another extra pen) Nah, Aidan, pass this back to Louis too.
Aidan: (takes pen) Eh Yi Ping, take this too (pushes pen into her hand)
Yi Ping: Oh (takes pen meekly)
Me: (hears the exchange) AIDAN!
Aidan: (quite innocently) What?
Me: I ASKED YOU TO GIVE TO LOUIS NOT HER!
Aidan: Oh. (looks and points at Yi Ping) Give back to Louis.
Me: ...

Aidan ah...

Hmm... what else?

Oh yeah. Cynthia Chai used the word implore before the prefects. And considering people would just use the phrase: I ask of you instead of I implore of you...
Sjane and me walking out of room to do spotcheck...
Sjane: Siaw, what's implore?
Me: (laughs) I told you bah, she always use big words.
Sjane: Yeahlar, what implore.
Me: Ya. She always use big words. Implore lo.
Silence.
Sjane: What's implore ah?
Me: Aiyah, she always like that one... (looks at her absently)
Silence.
Sjane: (innocent look) No seriously... what's implore?
Silence.
Me: Ehh... ask of?

Haih. Funny la.

And omg, I got Nick Ting on my team for spotcheck. When Anita Martin said he's like a little kid... I think she meant it...
Nick Ting: Eh, Siaw Hui, got toy car. Look!
Me: (look over) Oh, confiscate it.
Nick Ting: (ignores me and picks up toy car) Eh quite nice oh... (proceeds to play with it like a little kid)
Me: I said confiscate it.
Nick Ting: (continues playing)
Me: ...

And then when confiscating a science project...
Nick Ting: So how are we going to confiscate this huge building of blocks?
Everyone looks at the big flimsy building built out of blocks.
Aidan: Hard to carry like that eh.
Me: Yeah. I'm scared it'd fall when we carry.
Nick: I know I know! We dismantle it!
Me and Cynthia: NO! ARE YOU MAD?! THEY"D SKIN US IF YOU DISMANTLE!
Nick: Oh... (carries block and smth drops out)
Aidan: Oh dear.

And then when Nick found out he was on the same team as Cynthia...
Nick: Siaw Hui, do we have to stay in this same team always?
Me: Depends on whether Louis and Cynthia want to switch you guys when we retire.
Nick: Oh...
Me: (amused) Why?
Nick: Because... (looks at Cynthia)
Cynthia: If you don't like me just say la!
Nick: No la...
Cynthia: Nevermind we'd always be on the same thing. Because we're always meant to be together (in a sarcastic tone)
Nick: (blur) But I don't like you. (edges away)

Omg. I laughed like hell man.

When Alena confiscated a magazine going Tennis...
Alena: Kok Ming, is this allowed?
Kok: What's that? (squints)
Alena: Aiyah. (shoves the mag over) It's Tennis.
Silence.
Alena: (adds) That's Tennis with a T not a P.
Everyone burst out laughing.

After we finished the school day...
Noel: WHOOO!!! NO MORE PREFECTS! SIAW TAKE OFF YOUR TIE!
Me: Oh. (takes off tie) YAY!
Noel: Eat in class!
Me: Huh?
Noel: YOU MUST EAT IN CLASS NOW!
Me: (blur) What for? I'm not hungry le.

Louis: YES! NO MORE TIE!
Chee: YAY! NO MORE PREFECT! (high fives Louis, Mtyp and me)
Louis: YES! (swings ties round) NO MORE TIE!
Silence.
Louis: Oh yah... no more power too...
Chee: (evil look) Yah... no more power... (eviler look)
Louis: Uh oh.

Me: Khang, you're the most powerful person in class liao. No more prefects. You however are still class monitor.
Khang: MUAHAHAHAHAHA!! (extends hand like evil scientist)
Me and Mtyp: ...

Sally: (whacks me with fan)
Me: HOY!
Sally: (whacks again)
Me: YOU WAIT!! HOY!!
Sally: You no more power liao!!!!! HEEEHEEEEE...
Me:...

Khang: HAHAHAH! SIAW HUI YOU"RE FIRED!
Me: Oh shuddup.
Khang: HAHA! YOU"RE FIRED! YOU"RE FIRED!
Me: YOU SHUDDUP LA! YOU"RE GOING TO GET FIRED AS CLASS MONITOR SOON TOO!!
Khang: ...
Me: HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! (points dramatically)

Laugher is the best medicine. :)

Oh boy

Why oh why did I have to agree to join the stupid syarahan competition tomorrow?!

That's it. Tan Ah Siang cheated me!!

Well he didn't really. But heck, he should have said the syarahan's on tomorrow!! TOMORROW!!!!

I mean like... at least Alison them all had like TWO weeks to prepare. I had less than a week!!

And it's not like I could recycle my BM oral because it's too short! I need a speech spanning 5 minutes to 7 minutes. The oral one is only like 3 4 minutes?

Grr... Mel!!! Just coz Lun told Tan Ah Siang that you could speak and you didn't want to do it, you framed me? Eeeeeeeee... *shakes fist* :)

Aih, he just asked me: Do you want to join syarahan? I put you in ok? And then being extremely blur, I said: Uh ok. And then he was like: Get ready oh. I was like: Ok... And then he finally said: It's this Friday ok? And that's when I said: WHATTTTT????!!!!!

Oh well. Since he was already going round asking ppl to do so I just went along with it la. Haih. Wished I didn't now.

I KNOW I'm supposed to be doing my syarahan now. But the comp look so tempting and my syarahan script looks so... boring. Grrrr.

And then, and then, I didn't know that the max time was 7 minutes! So I thought could recycle BM oral. Until he told me yesterday that it's advisable my speech is 5 minutes plus. So, since I couldn't lengthen my original oral since it's already BORING enough. So I had to change topic. Simply pluck one out of the karangan book. And now I'm stuck with doing Iklan. OMG, SO BORING... *burst into an influx of tears*

And due to my name starting with "W" I'm the LAST speaker for the day tomorrow... though that would mean that everyone has gone off to sleep already and I wouldn't feel that much pressure with less pair of eyes staring me down.

AND THERE"S NO PODIUM!!!! *wails* I was hoping that I might have me beloved script in front of me BUT THERE"S NO PODIUM!!! *screams* HELP!! SJANE AND TIFF!!! AND ALISON TOO!! NO FAIR!!! LAST TIME ENGLISH SPEECH COMPETITION GOT PODIUM LEH!! SO MEAN!! I hate doing freestyle!!

Ok, ok, supposed to go practice syarahan. But it's so damn boring.

*sneaks off to play Neopets instead*

I am risking total humiliation in front of the school tomorrow as I haven't memorized my script. Well two more paragraphs to go. Not bad CONSIDERING I WAS ONLY TOLD OF THIS ON MONDAY!!

And yes I know Cher, practising in front of the mirror is supposed to boost my confidence.

But it reduces me to mad and maniacal laughter instead.

Don't ask why.

The List

Anna! Since you stole stuff of my blog, I shall steal stuff of yours!

HAHA! IT"S PAYBACK LITTLE ANNA!!

No actually it's just that I'm really extremely bored and decided to take it out on this poor undeserving blog.

Hehe... so uhh aheeeeemmmm... presenting Siaw Hui's list!

The List (stolen off Anna's blog ehehehe...)

Can you name 13 people you can think of right offthe top of your head? Don't read the questions underneath until you write the names of all 13 people...This is a lot funnier if you actuallyrandomly list the names first...No Cheating!!!

1) Kimmy!!
2) Vann
3) Jas
4) Noel
5) Ak
6) Kok
7) Mtyp
8) Alison
9) Emm
10) Jess
11) Anna (duh she's the one who I stole this from how can I not think of her straight away? lol)
12) Cher
13) Sat

1)How did you meet 10?
How did I meet Jess? Oh wow, I actually heard bells ringing in my head. Haha. I'm not lesbian la. Actually, I met her when we were in Form 1. She was the new kid in sch then. Didn't know her, but she sat behind me so we just chatted a little la.

2)What would you do if you had never met 1?
Life without Kimmy would have been boring. I mean, she's really gullible (makes it all the easier to play tricks on her) and naive (ditto the first bracket). And she's cute at times (finally I admitted that after how long?!) and can be really funny (gives you laughs at the most tense of times).

3)What would you do if 6 and 2 dated?
Kok and Vann? Initial reaction: cough* cough* hack* hack* After a few moments thought: Well... hmm... actually I won't know what to do OR say... It's just really... out of the blue you know? If it does happen la I mean... okay better shut up now.

4)Have you ever seen 4 cry?
Noel cry? Nope. Never.

5)Do you think 1 is cute?
Kimmy is cute? Didn't I just say so? When I say cute I mean as in the cartoony (no offence) cute way and not as in lesbian to lesbian way... ewww ewww...

6)How did you get to know 8?
Alison? Well I got to know her in Kindy actually. Don't know how we really GOT to be with each other but yeah... we met in Kindy and then had a reunion in Form 1 lol.

7)Would you ever go on a date with number 12?
Eww eww... go on a date with Cher? Are you mad? I'm straight!!

8)What's 7's Favorite color?
Mtyp? Uh oh. Damn. She's my longest time friend (along with Jas, Kok and Khang) but I can't seem to think of the color she likes... uh pink? I think? *winces in preparation of her blow*

9)What would you do if 6 confessed they liked you?
*spits out Milo that is currently being drunk* WHAT?! Kok like me? *starts laughing maniacally* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! Omg, how can I ever begin to ... *goes off into laughter again* Okay... calming down. How on earth will Kok ever go to that? It is not possible. Utterly not possible. I treat him like a good friend... maybe a brother some times that's it. Besides... I know his taste :) well actually I don't but I'm guessing... And Kok, just so you know, this is totally random and that I did this 13 ppl list in NO PARTICULAR ORDER just like the last list I did!!

10)Fact about 9:Emm is a great artist. She draws really lovely eyes (go see her portraits and you'd get what I mean) She's also a very kindhearted girl who always helps out. But she is forever FORGETTING THAT SHE'S STILL A BLOG MEMBER OF THIS BLOG AND DOES NOT BLOG FOR AGES ON END!!

11)Who is 4 going out with?
Noel? Going out with who? Haha. Himself. Lol. JOKING LA! I don't mean to make you sound pathetic rodent cousin! Don't take offence... he's single btw so female squirrels you better... *goes off into maniacal laughter again* HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH!!!

12)Who is number 5 to you?
Ak? Ah, since you're asking this, I shall repeat this for the last time, esp for the sake of my classmates that AKMAL AND ME ARE JUST FRIENDS! Nth more! And maybe sometimes siblings... not physically but well... I dunno... in a way? Though sometimes he acts more like an annoying brother... =)

13)Would you ever live with 13?
Sat? What are you suggesting? Anyway, I wouldn't mind living with him... but as long got other friends around to join in the fun. I mean, Sat is just a whole bundle of fun. Lol. And lots of words too. :)

14)Is 2 single?
Van? Nope she's not single. She's going out with Jess. OKAY OKAY DON"T KILL ME WAS JUST JOKING!! She's single.

15)Where does 7 live?
Mtyp lives at Lorong Seladah 4, Jalan Song (or was it Seladah? ehe) Kuching Swak Msia. HEHE!! I shall not disclose the house add in case she get stalkers later and she blame me.

16)What do you think about 3?
3? She's the most insane royal queen I've ever met! But she gives great advice. And she uses Van as a punching bag. And I don't pity Van for it. MUAHAHAHAHAH!!!

17)What's the best thing about number 8?
She's very witty, and great fun to be around with. Haha. Esp when she's with Emm she's forever slapping Emm and Emm slaps back. And when she's with Noel the both argue over the stupidest things. :)

18)What do you like about number 11?
Hmm. I like that Anna is always perky (in a good way) and that she's always smiling and laughing no matter what. Hard to see someone really live up to the phrase, Happy go lucky! I really appreciate it coz when a little thundercloud hangs over my head and she comes along with a bright sunny disposition I feel much better. Thanks dearie!!

19)Favorite Memory with 2?
Vann? Hmm... punching her? OH! And the Miri hyperventilating incident! *Check the archives of blog to find out what it's about* ;) Van, you're influencing me! I'm starting to hyperventilate sometimes too!

Seeing that I'm extremely bored and I want to make this list a perfect 20, I decided to add one more question of me (btw, I added this question before I listed the 13 ppl)...

20) What do you like about 12?
Cher? Oh lots of things. She's forever doing her lame HAIYAK karate thing which always make ppl laugh. And she's always laughing or smiling. And I like the way she always goes OOOO!! in awe even if it's just a small little good thing. And she's always making ppl feel better about themselves. And she readily defends ppl (loudly I might add lol) when she feels like it.

Oh well. That's about all there is to the list. :)

Closing of a chapter

They say life is made up of bittersweet memories.

And believe me, they're right.

I've been reading through (well more like browsing through) the archives of this blog. Can you believe that it's been over a year since this blog began? And there are more than a 100 posts and counting being archived throughout this blog's history already?

No thanks to Emm *cough*.

And btw, Al, I DEMAND A RETRACTION!

*clears throat*

Like I was saying, with the coming of next week, another chapter of my life will be ending. And closed. Given the circumstances of this chapter, I don't know whether I want to laugh or to cry, to be happy or to be sad. It's all bittersweet. It's all mixed up. But it's all still part of my life.

This chapter of my life is the chapter where I serve as a prefect for one and a half years in Lodge.

ServeD once next week comes.

Yeah, guys, officially stepping down as prefect (together with the rest of me pals) next month in Aug. Probation of new Heads and Seniors probably next week. And don't ask me who got what because there's been no meeting yet.

I bet that's what most of you want to know right? Who's going to be next Heads esp? Haha. Not a chance.

Not that I know anyway. ;)

Anywho, being a prefect hasn't been all smooth sailing. But I have to admit it has been really fun at times. Stressful and annoying at others. But throughout the whole thing, like I said, if you have family who cares deeply for you and friends who will never let you go no matter what, you can stick through an ordeal no matter how bad it is. And it helps that you get to boss your friends around. *evil look*

I guess that when I finally do take off my tie and return it (yeah, that's how lokek the sch is we can't get to keep it) I'd be feeling the same way as I do now. Sad because I'm no longer a prefect. But happy because it means less stress and more concentration on studies (which everyth seems to revolve around these days.) Life is filled with bittersweet memories ain't it?

I still remember the first day of school last year. How Tian Hui walked into the class and pinned up the names for the fresh batch of prefects. Everyone was fighting to see the list. Still remember Tiff going, "No la, I can't be wan..." and then shortly after that a hysterical Cel going, "I TOLD YOU YOU IDIOT! YOU SURE BECOME PREFECT BAH!" And I remember looking at the list, scanning it and seeing my name.

To be honest, I was happy to see my name there. Go ahead think me a nerd or whatever. But yeah, I was, LIVE WITH IT!

We had our first prefect meeting and then on went the prefect stuff. I still remember my very first week of duty. Which was at the foyer for three freaking weeks! Don't ask me why, but I was very anxious to get walking in Block C (at that time still inhabited and not like the ghost "town" we see today!) and scold people. I know, I'm mean. LIVE WITH IT!

Oh yeah. And the infamous argument between Emm, Aidan and me. Remember? The pervert joke? Oh God. I remember it so well I go up in laughter when I recall it. Even if Aidan and Emm have temporarily lost their memories of said time. Together. And coincidentally I might add. *evil grin* Maybe not la. But still, it was funny. STill remember how Emm nearly shrieked at Aidan going, "YÖU"RE A PERVERT?" to which Aidan went, "I AM NO PERVERT!" Man, those Form 1 kids really thought we were weird back then.

And the classic of Aidan telling ppl to tuck in their shirt when already tuck in. *wipes tears from eyes* See what I mean about being a prefect is fun some times when you live for moments like these?

Then we had Sports Day. Oh boy. I remember Emm, me, Cas, Joyce uhh... two more oth prefects presumably Akmal and someone else... selling drinks and packing refreshments. Remember Emm and I were like continually trying to steal curry puffs from the packed refreshments. But never succeeded. Coz got a certain Florinda Goh watching us like a hawk. Aiyah, one curry puff also cannot mer. Of course, later we got our FREE refreshments. *snorts* At the end of the fricking day only ah. Pahhh...

I remember ferrying drinks from below the stands to the grand stands, or to the farthest areas of the tracks or to the judges. Esp the packet lunches. Emm and I wanted to steal too. But neh, we were too noble. HAHA. Oh yeah, I still remember us running like really stupid idiots, trying to be drinks salesmen. Ak was carrying a carton of Chrysanthemum I think. Emm was carrying Orange or smth like that. And me, some other drink. And we were racing each other around the track, not caring whether we crashed into any competing runner at that moment, trying to get rid of our drinks as fast as possible. Duh, the faster we get rid of it, the lighter it is so don't need to carry so much weight in our arms right? Hah, the logic of it all.

So everytime we came past the referree or the gunsmen or whatever, we would be like shoving each other aside going, "Mine better, it's so cool and refreshing," or "You know you want Chyrsanthemum it's so much better," or "Cikgu, a few more left, just take one la..." I remember Kenny Tan laughing so hard that in the end he either took all three types or took none at all to be fair. Haha.

Btw, did I mention that since he found out that I almost blew up the Chem lab that he came back and taught me how to REALLY blow up the Chem lab once and for all? Evil man, just coz he no more teaches us...

The only icky part about the whole thing is that we had to go round picking up rubbish after inconsiderate ppl. Kenny Tan actually shook his fist at ppl who threw drinks off the stands because it almost hit him. Bravo! :)

Then we had Prefect Telematch. It was F U N. Too bad we didn't get to organize our own this year though. Some Lee person didn't allow us. Grrrr... But last year's telematch was good. Omg, it was tiring and torturing (my limbs were aching like hell after it) and though my group came in second last (PEY YOUR GROUP CAME IN LAST NIEH NIEH NIEH jk la) it was all fun and worth it. Still remember who was in my team from the Form 4. Joyce and Ak. Joyce, remember we had a really cool teamwork going on in the Pictionary? You draw I guess so fast ah. Haha.

And I still remember Emm's bro, Ronald who absolutely refused my help in the obstacle course. I was like: You need help? *hold out hand* He look at me with this really indignant look and went: NO! And then he almost toppled off the bench. And looked really tortured throughout the whole thing. And the water balloons was good. We actually managed to drench all the guys save Ak because he was too cowardly to be the target. Haiyah, Akmal!

Prefect Leadership Course. Nth much. Twas boring. I fell asleep during the lecture btw. Speaks volumes about said boredness doesn't it?

Teacher's Day. Hah. I'd remember this. Omg, we spend like an entire month organizing all this. Wasn't happy with the way things turned out still but all right, we did our best and that was it. Nothing mroe could be done. Things were against us that day (a certain person bleh and mikes and technical details) and some of them forgot their cues due to their haste. So no blamings. And I remember during one practice, I condemned both Noel and Ak to run ten rounds of the library. Which they did. Not ten but I don't know la. And Ak and Noel kept calling me Huitler since I kept yelling at them. Now you know where my nick came from.

Then bad things started happening. After I became Head Girl. I shall not try to deny that ON the day ITSELF that I became Head Prefect, I was happy. But after that, totally different story. Will not try to evoke the very bad and black past. All I can say is: worst time of my life for now. No details, don't even think of asking.

But yeah, this year has been quite swell. Except for certain people out to get me. And some Form 4 prefects whom I absolutely detest because they just like sucking up and getting on the wrong side of me (GARRRRRR!) But like I said, if you have friends to rough it out with, all problems can be solved. Stick together in a lot of things, and you have said happiness. Not permanent happiness or total happiness (because that is not possible in reality not all times anyway) but still happiness to a certain degree.

Planning for the workshop this year was fun. Quite fun but stressing. Except some ppl who don't know how to appreciate the hard work, right Van? And the St Jo and St Tere telematch was fun too. Don't regret going. Even if I embarassed myself in front of an entire board of prefects from both their schs and my sch. THANK GOD NO ONE TOOK A PICTURE OF ME OR I SHALL DIE OF EMBARASSMENT. Just imagine the caption: Head Girl of Lodge takes a trip on the football field *wince* But at least Noel got what he deserved. HAH! Thanks Emm for helping me in my revenge!!

Other than that, this year as a prefect has been more stressful. Not that satisfying also. Sometimes more satifsfying but most times no. Life as a junior prefect was better actually. No stress more fun. But this year has had its share of fun. Just that it's less. And not so much euphoria too. After all, everyday kena criticized for things we do don't we, Kok? Every week must have at least one snide comment or critic. Aih, some people just know how to talk and talk but never do anything. Grr.

Being a Form 4 prefect was better generally. In conclusion, you get more power as a Form 5 prefect due to your seniority and you get to make the "kids" snap to it, but more work load too. Ask any of the prefects. Esp the blue ties. Everyday duty not fun right? Esp when you have oth things to do. Like studying and homework. Tis not a wonder I usually see Sjane patrolling with a Sej book in front of her face. I actually admire all the blue ties because they actually can cope with duties and work. Me leh, hehe, at least don't need to go patrol right? Even if I had duties, it's not physically walking up and down EVERYDAY. Only sometimes (which is very rare) when I feel like it. Oh and let's not forget the seniors too. They everyday have to go check on prefects and monitor their progress yada yada.

The chapter's ending. Somehow am glad it's all over. At least no more tears, no more drama (esp during the past one year) and no more critics. Just plain old good life of a normal student after this. Even if it means no more privileges (certain privileges like going spotcheck and skipping class I mean) being back to regular student will be quite welcomed in my life after this. Esp with Mock coming up. But I know, honestly, that I'd miss being a prefect even if there were more trials than fun.

So, just before this chap ends, I just want to thank a few prefects (but most importantly good solid old friends) who've been through a hell lot with me and stuck with me through my most crazy days where I just blow up and hurl insults at everything including them. Thanks for always being there for me, to encourage me when I just feel like stabbing a critic in the back and laughing manically afterwards. I know, Noel, I'm supposed to relax so I don't get frazzled white hairs sticking out of my head. But oh well...

So I must accord thanks to all of you wonderful ppl who I'd always cherish (in no particular order): Van, Emm, Noel, Ak, MTYP, Sjane, Sing Yue, Kok... and yeah that's about it. Well, the prefect friends that I have anyway.

You see, I don't have much close prefect friends but like I said, if you have a bunch of really good ones, you can go through hell and water with them. Because they'd stick with you through it and never complain. They'd even gossip about said hated person with you just to make you feel better even. *evil grin*

Thanks guys. From the bottom of my heart, don't know where I'd be now without you lot.

Chapter of my life is closing... am no longer a prefect soon. Must get used to that. No more tie (yes I finally get some air around my neck!!) and no more stress.

Bittersweet indeed.

Most of you won't know what I'm ranting about so don't bother...

But Mr Noel, Miss Jasmine and Miss Vanessa, you know, so... I just feel like I want to tell her this:

"I'm worried about you. I want to tell you how much I hope that you won't get hurt just like I got hurt. I won't bear it if you cried over the same thing that has made me cried. I don't want the reason I became a broken person be the same reason for making you slide into the valley where I just rose from. It's not fair. You don't deserve to be hurt just like I did. No one deserves to go through that type of hurt. But the world isn't fair and things like this happen. But I just want you to know that I'm trying my damn best to make sure it doesn't happen to you. You're my friend, you look up to me as a big sister. I want to live up to that. I don't want to let you down. Big sisters don't let little sisters down, do they? I will try my best to protect you. Can't you see that what I've been saying to you, through email, in the flesh, is all trying to make you see that what you're pursuing isn't worth it? That what you're pursuing will hurt you very badly indeed? Please see it. Please do.

Your email didn't supply me with more information. All it did was worry me a hell lot more. You deliberately ignored my advice. Just because I put in a little part going Congratulations doesn't mean that my purpose of my email was just solely to congratulate you. It was just a greeting. I wanted you to concentrate on the rest of my email. The main part, the main thing I said to tell you to stop pursuing it. But you ignored it. Did you really purposely do it? Or was it a slip of your eyes? But it couldn't be. It was so bloody long.

You're worrying me. I'm afraid that you'd get hurt. I can't bear when my friends get hurt. Because I know that this hurt is going to hurt a hell lot more than anything else you've known before. You trust me on that, because I lived through it.

I'm trying to protect you. Why can't you see that? Why can't you stop and listen to the real thing that I'm trying to put across to you without blatantly and outrightly saying so? The truth lies in the under current of my words, if you would just listen and look for it. You have to listen to what lies under my words, you just have to. I'm helping you. You have to listen to what I'm really saying and screaming silently. You just - have to. I can't say it frankly because it will hurt you too much and I don't want to be the pain bearer. But I'm trying to tell it subtly, so please listen.

I won't let you live through the pain I lived through. I just won't have it. You don't deserve to.

Listen to me, stop pursuing it!!! Just stop! Ýou'd only hurt yourself in the end..."

Sigh... caught in between much?

Oh well

Some people just come up with the stupidest ideas.

It's suprising how her stupidity never fails to amaze me.

Whatever. Don't want to listen to the voice of reason - me.

Wait till the plan for tomorrow blows up in her face.

I'd be there savouring every minute and laughing my arse off.

I think maybe I'd work with the others to make sure it DOES blow up.

After all, what goes around comes around.

It's karma - eh, Kok?

;)

Freedom

Boo yeah! Exams are over!

Not very happy with how I performed... esp in my Science papers. Esp Chem! Wait till I see the Chem teacher... haiyah, don't know how to set papers wan ah. Three quarter counting stuff how to do in one hour? Ahhhh I think I fail obj paper la. And sub paper lost 7 marks plus lo. Dead dead dead... I really wanted to prove myself that I could get A1 in Chem but oh well, the world and everything is against me. Now I can just rely on God for this paper. And all the others. :)

Anyway, after exam, a few of us, namely me, Al, Emm, Van and Noel (haha only squirrel and male around HAHA ok sorry...) painted the town red. Hung around the Golden Triangle a lot.

And apparently, it's a tradition for Lodge ppl to go hang in town after exams. Coz we saw LOADS of Lodgians. Esp in the cinemas. From every form, you name it you got it. Anyway, we bumped into Sjane them all in Parkson. And then Kok Khang them all in the cinema. The guys basically. :) The rest are just Form 1 2 3 kids la. And some Form 4 kids.

So anyway, Noel, Al and Van went straight after school. To Lord knows where. They change and then went. Tan me and Emm went home to eat lunch first. Then we went. So anywho, I left the house after lunch and met up with Van and Al at Parkson...

Van told me to meet up with Al at MNG. And once I reached Parkson, I was standing at the cosmetic counter. And like duh, the woman's section and MNG was on the same floor. Just walk a little and you reach there liao right?

You know what I did?

I bet you're all gonna laugh at me until you die but anyway, what I did was think that the women's section was on the next floor. So I went up all the way. To find that I was on the men's section. So I thought it was further up. So I went up one more floor. To find myself surrounded by cuddly toys and cuddly kiddy clothes. So annoyed, I was standing in this pool of ppl just staring, wondering where the hell was MNG. And then it clicked.

It was right where I started from.

Climbed back down three floors to the floor that I initially started from. Stupid right?

Anyway, when we reached MNG, we bumped into Sjane. Sorry dear didn't see you wave! Anyway, Al dragged me into MNG and groaned about how she was going to sell her handphone to buy a pair of really cute jeans (dear I'm sure they're cute it's just that I'm not into those stuff) Apparently she bugged and tortured Van to accompany her to MNG too.

Oh and btw, Tan and her fought over the last pair of jeans. In the end Tan gave up. :)

When Al paid for the jeans, we bumped into Janet and Steven. Noel and Van came up from KFC. And then me and Noel were like staring at Al LONG AND HARD when she started smiling FOR NO REASON and kept HUGGING HER JEANS TO HER CHEST. Okay... so thats what shopaholics do when they get something they really want...

Tan said she lz to walk so fine she hitched a ride with Wins to go to Coffee Bean and then to Star. So asked her to buy tickets for the movie. We were so gungho about Pirates but in the end we had to settle for Superman since Pirates not out until next Thurs. Noooooo...

We left for McDs since Al was hungry. But not after I stopped at the bookstore. And when I walked in, it was like heaven. :) No serious... and on the bookshelf right in FRONT of me was the book I was looking for (ok so not directly in front but still...) since I finished the last book.

PS I LOVE YOU! WAKKKK!!!

Btw, Where Rainbows End by the same author is really nice. ;) Diff style of writing, diff from the normal ordinary style but it's really cool. And really nice. Some parts annoying. But everywhere you'd crack up with laughter. And the ending is really really sweet. It's the only romance novel I like so that should speak volumes yeah?

Oh the other romance I like is The Three Fates by Nora Roberts. But that's not counted coz that has action too. This has PURE romance only. And tinges of good humor. :)

So anyway, I loaned Tan money and so now I didn't have enough money for the book and my movie. So I whined and groaned and moaned and Noel and Van had to put up with it. I kept shoving the book in their faces (well sort of) and going back to the book. Finally Al lent me money and haha! I BOUGHT THE BOOK! WOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!

It sounds so nice. Wakkk gonna read it tonight!! Well soon... since have to start preparing for Mock Spm and all that soon. :(

Aha! My dad got me an Ipod too! HAHA! Not Apple Ipod though. A cheaper version but hell, it works all the same. It's just that cannot watch movies (well the manual says can so I'd try to work something out) the colour is not that good and cannot arrange the songs properly but still smth better than nth right? HAHA

Ok coming back to topic.

After buying the book, I was so happy. HAHA. And we went to McD. And then Emm came (late as usual that woman) and we met up with her at McD. Where we also bumped into Khang and the gang. ;)

We went over to Tun Jugah for ais kacang. Since I promised them a bowl each. But on finding it too expensive I asked them to share 3 bowls. HAHA. Lokek bah. I'm sorry! It's 3 buck plus for each bowl and I'm broke! I spent my RM50 on them the movie and the book! But all worth it lee...

Pstt, Emm, the ais kacang wasn't that fantastic you liar! :) So not worth it! Ais kacang near Jubilee Ground better...

We walked all the way to Star after that to catch Superman. Not bad la. Two and a half hours. Quite a good movie. But I don't like the ending! Van doesn't like it too! It's so... urgh I don't know! I mean like come on... he went through so much and then in the end, at the end of the day, he didn't get what he loved? Ewsh. Shan't put too much. Don't wanna spoil stuff. Oh yeah, some quotes... I DON"T CARE WHETHER YOU THINK IT"S CHEESY EMM BUT THE QUOTES ARE STILL QUITE MEANINGFUL! Well quite la... ahhhhhh... bugger...

You say the world doesn't need a saviour. But everyday, I hear people crying for one - Superman

Sometimes you'd feel like you're different. Sometimes you'd feel like you don't belong. But no matter what, you'd never be alone. In this moment then, your life is seen through my eyes and mine through yours... the son becomes the father and the father becomes the son... - Superman

Ok, if you don't get the last phrase, go watch the movie. Coz only then you'd understand. Because if I tell you, I'd spoil stuff for you. Coz that's what Superman says to uhh... you see lo!

Since the movie lasted so long, we finally had to go back after movie end coz I got dinner, Emm got tuition! And Al got Rainforest and Van got tuition too I think...

Oh wells, I shall go read my book now and listen to my songs. HUAHAHAHA...
