Different

Tell myself on the ride home.
Getting tired, hating all I've known.
Holding on like it's all I have.
Count me out when it's clear that I
find it hard to say.
And you find it hard to care.

I wanted to see something that's different,
something you said would change in me.
Wanted to be anything different,
everything you would change in me.

Got this way, up front but never true.
God, I'm wrong, it's just the way I am.
Crashing down any chance you'll hear.
Caving in any chance that you,
could see inside of me.
And I, I'll know what to say,
It's fine, this isn't Hollywood.
So fine, getting in your way.

I wanted to see something that's different,
something you said would change in me.
Wanted to be anything different,
everything you would change in me.

I'm taking a chance,
this could be different.
This could be all I'm waiting for.
Taking a chance,
this could be different.
This could be all I'm waiting for.

I wanted to see something that's different,
something you said would change in me.
Wanted to be anything different,
everything you would change in me.

Something that's different

Yumcha at Sgoon Gardens Countryclub with Bao just now. It was almost like we've been doing it for years, and we possibly will. Well at least until Ames shifts to The Duxton or something yes? (: haha
It feels like grown ups taking a break from their worklife/family catching up over a pseudo Sunday brunch and tea. Talking abt good old times, prospective futures, and current affairs.

Today I also broke my blackbird in the morning in a furious attempt to rewind and eject the film roll to develop. And by doing so I've exposed almost the entire roll of film and had no idea what I was doing/trying to do. I got so mad I broke the film door while trying to force it open. Then I got so helpless I forced everyth shut, shoved it in a black bag and taped it up. Seef, I hope you revive it.

Bella.

I am...

panic attacking for the second time for Wednesday's paper.

BUT : I have a paper tomorrow so there should be no reason for me to neglect it.

S says I should stop thinking about it so I've kept all the notes, past year papers, tutorials, and everything that reminds me of Advanced Materials Processing in a file and hid it under my table.

Spent the weekend in hall, except Friday night and the first half of Saturday.

Surprised Seef over breakf with the other 4 of Bao (sorry you couldn't be there Sheryl!) to celebrate her 21st one day early. (:

So I'm finally starting exams tomorrow! (: About time, when people around me are beginning to E-N-D. :( 7dec sounds so far away, but shall not complain about the time I have on hand to use for revision! (:

Need to go for a run soon. Getting oversized.

I Know That You Were Trouble, But I Couldn't Resist.

So I :

removed my stitches today, and
found out that my bottom right wisdom is in a worst state than the one I extracted and hence,
will experience a more traumatic post-surgery recovery when I do get it extracted.
finally went for 930 lesson after breakf with the roomie
couldn't stop sleeping in oh-so-boring elective.
was asked the meaning of "LOVE" today.
recently can't stop throwing FORWARD passes
didn't play w.tl on Saturday but still went down
caught Timetraveller's wife over the weekend with Bao, and
didn't really like it. :(
missed my gipee interview last wednesday thanks to wisdom surgery, yet
was offered/recommended for it but,
had to reject it after calling up gipee office only to find out it clashes with the infamous ivpee.
made a domokun card + whippedcream-covered-sponge as a pseudo cake for Jeannette's 21st with Jieling
have a new found baby whom I spoil. It is true.
was too late to sign up for Nikehumanrace AGAIN but it clashes with w.tl anywayyyyy
must be patient
must not express negativity to my teammates on the field
am excited for S.unig yet a little scared
was told that we think alike by A(nne)
really hate reccosboys cos they are so effing selfish and full of themselves
really hate 5llah softball male team after today cos they were so rude and unapologetic after lousy bats and allowing their softballs to fly into our field more than 3 times when they didn't even book the freaking field.
missed out on eating dessert last night cos they stall was closed after we finished our main course, and hence
tried the weirdest combination of ice ever - peanut ice, mango puree and nata de coco.
was visited by seetohmeetoh weiyanndearest last Friday after wisdom extraction who bought me hotfudge sundae! WHEEEEEE
as usual, hate school
have been trying to sleep early, wake early. And so far,
have been sleeping by 230am and waking up before 1130am. Good start.
am currently hooked on: All The Right Moves/OneRepublic and Two is Better Than One/BoyslikeGirls
need to study studying. THREE TESTS COMING!!!

PS: And Jeannette says: " I LOVE/사랑해/大好き/真的好爱/*insert 'love' in other languages here* you all~ "

Take Me On A Trip I'd Like To Go Someday.

I am 21.

It definitely doesn't feel like it. Didn't need the party poppers and streamers to acknowledge that, nor the redefinition of rules I am now entitled to break.

As always, simplicity is supremacy. I would not deny things felt different with S' absence. Having a bunch of guys sing "Happy Birthday" was honestly a tad bit awkward and weird too.....

Then camp. And trainings. And xlb buffet.

BAO met on Monday to celebrate A-meee-learrrr's twentyfirst with the much anticipated XLB buffet.

Poor service aside, the xlb were very much substandard. We also ordered the worst choice of MALA soupbase which killed all of us. I felt my throat burn and head spin. At that moment, I knew I was gonna fall sick. :( We wanted to go for durians but I received an SOS call from S which disrupted plans.

I guess that was a blessing in disguise otherwise I'd have been more sick than I already am.

Caught Pol.ite games despite the splitting headache and leaking nose..

But I forced myself to recover so I can play on Wed(:

Wednesday was fffuuunnn. =) As posted earlier, now Coach owes us Vermonster(:

Then just as I thought I've fully recovered from flu, I got hit by fever.

But it only happened when I was already out- Met the W.antoks teammies for lunch at Swensens(: Then dessert at BenJerry's(:

It was a nice time of get together after so long, and nice to see everyone again. (Considering we used to see each other twice a week during season)

Left for Pol.ite again, which we were half an hour late, almost missing an entire match. :\

Got home, took my temperature, had lotsa medicine forced down.

And I finally woke up at 2pm after the interruptions with a growling tumtum cos I haven't eaten in almost 24hours.

So things have turned and as expected, things have changed.

I'm not inflexible; after all I've been through. But I will not say I've the best reactions to changes. Of course, all takes time to adapt, to adjust.

Now I'm just dreading this first far away weekend.

And today, went to support Su/Siti/Senior-Toks at the Women's Contact game between B.ucks and B.lacks. Though we ended up talking among ourselves half the time, the tries that game through were still some pretty awesome ones. And sonnybaby broke her nose. It was like deja-vu all over again when it happened to S almost exactly a year ago. Except this time, there were alot more tears, and I was allowed close to her and could hold her hand.

Poor Su, you'll be fine k. Mama loves you and the surgery is not as scary as it sounds. (:

Now?

The weekend passed like pseudo post-exams,

Friday with Family,

Saturday playing Touch and supper with Bao,

Sunday spent at church, shopping, airport slacking and watching soccer.

It also felt somewhat like a celebration, where we treated ourselves to good food; Mac Breakfast, Kenny Rogers, Sushi, Kickass prawn noodles, Supper at T.ongshui, X.in wang ..... .

The sun on Saturday was mega hot, so hot I had goosebumps. Weird, cos it has never happened before and I thought they'd only appear when I'm extremely cold.

We won 8-7, not too convincing a win, but one nonetheless. Grazed my knees and nearly evaporated under the heat. =(

Then an impromptu supper retreat, which led to lotsa screaming in the car (which isn't uncommon). It was a good catch up, a good break from revision, a good source of comfort- that old times never die.

Sunday, travelled to about two places to get a watch with a heart rate monitor. When we finally found it, turns out they didn't have the strap, so we got another (which in my opinion, is probably only third or fourth best ) Studied for about two hours or so before we headed East to Bedok, an hour early. Aiport for dinner, and supposedly study, but the plane landed early and dinner took longer than expected no thanks to poor service.

Stayed up to watch M.anU lose. >=( Even though they fielded a really young team, I thought they'd still pull through. We went into penalties and lost. YOU KNOW WHY? Cos VANDERSAR didn't play. =) Still think Welbeck sucks btw.

Mommy sent us back to hall after lunch today(: Yay to a spare car for two weeks! :D I tried starting to shift out and unknowingly packed two (huggee) bags worth of clothes but my wardrobe still looks the same.

PS: The touch is home, still sealed, and hidden in a corner under my table.

(NO GPANG you are not going to open it for me(: )

PPS: 2 people walked past and commented how shag/stressed/qiao cui I look, another via webcam, and another over dinner. This is not a good sign. =(
