i wrote huan (pay) as huan (change) in a note to my mummy. she took it as a sign that her precious daughter's chinese is in need of some desperate help and is now desperately trying to get me to watch a channel 8 show hosted by guo liang to "learn chinese." no kidding. she even called my brother to tell him the exact same thing.

some people have difficulties writing a 150 words essay and i have difficulties trying to keep my essays to a maximum of 300 words. like, hahaha. anyway, i think the essays i have written so far are just plain crap can. i was never good at writing about myself, especially if it involves reflections and achievements. i guessed it's just my bloody luck that that's all they ask you about in all those bloody applications.

speaking of which, university applications are a bitch and i still don't have any idea what am i going to be when i grow up graduate and that is really irritating the shit out of me. i feel like deferring my studies for year, but i think i can only do that after they've sent me their acceptance letters. yeah, i know with my grades i would probably get into pretty much everywhere but seriously, these kind of things very hard to say one ok. i don't want to get my hopes too high and have them all dashed at once.

ok, i'm going back to editing my essay. i think i'm so going to bore the people reading through the application forms. haha! anyway, i'm moving my blog soon. not to livejournal because not a lot of my friends have lj accounts. i would leave it to you to guess where am i moving to. what fun.

i should learn to cycle.

jun yu: i've disliked hamilton since he swore at ron dennis because in my opinion, ron dennis is a very cool guy who didn't deserve to get sworn at. you can check my previous entries, you kuku.
michelle: don't worry, i will. we really take too much photos. haha.

kimi raikkonen is the king of bad lucks, i tell you. i hope he wins in malaysia and that lewis hamilton will crash out or something. i don't know why but i really really really dislike hamilton. in fact, if i have to choose between fernando alonso & lewis hamilton, i will choose the former anytime. and that's saying a lot because alonso ain't exactly anywhere near the top on my favourite people list can.

anyway, time really flies. it's kind of cool that when we have a student pass again in july, we won't be a) wearing school uniforms or b) attending morning assemblies. and despite possessing a student pass, we won't be known as students! WE WILL BE KNOWN AS UNDERGRADUATES! like, hahahaha.

so, for old times' sake, here are some photos taken while we were still students (yes, it's another excuse to play with picasa):

FENGSHAN PRIMARY SCHOOL (1996-2001):

i know you were probably expecting some toot toot pictures of teeny-weeny us in school uniforms & two ponytails, but unfortunately, i think digital cameras weren't invented when we were still in primary school so i could only show you pictures of us when we were (much) older instead.

GEYLANG METHODIST SECONDARY SCHOOL (2002-2005):

in case you're wondering, the last picture of the second row is the famous "shit on the ceiling" of the old faith 1-3 classroom. the building was demolished and the shit probably disappeared in thin air, but well, it was fun while it lasted. anyway, though i think digital cameras were invented in secondary school, none of us were stupid enough to bring it to school with us everyday and since camera phones were expensive (and therefore, rare) and lousy then, i didn't have a lot of gm's photos as well.

MERIDIAN JUNIOR COLLEGE (2006-2007):

the past 2 years were a wild, crazy & memorable ride and i'm really glad that our phones were all equipped with state of the art cameras to capture almost every single moment of it. i currently have 2900+++ photos, which i must admit, is a bit too much, but hey, i'm not complaining.

anyway, open houses were interesting. we behaved like cheapos at nus, complained about the lack of hot guys in ntu and laughed at kai hua's sheer stupidity at smu (actually it was just me & her at smu, but, well). my choices are pretty much decided i guess, but i think i will think it over again before actually submitting my applications. and i am really really grateful to God for blessing me with grades that could get me pretty much anywhere i want. :)

you know, i was expecting to be disappointed. but, look!



L LOOKS PRETTY VERY VERY SUPER DUPER GOOD IN REAL LIFE TOO! in fact, he looks better in real life. let's admit it alright, l's hair (and makeup) can bit a bit freaky at times.

(actually there are nicer pictures of him over at gettyimages. but as usual, the watermark covered his handsome face so i had to make do with this uglier - but still very handsome! one instead.)
