such an eventful past week, and so many photos that i've yet to upload. must wait for theresa to send to me :D

last friday was perfect! it was just like those days last year when i spend the whole day playing sports. ran for 35 mins while the rest were having maths h2 test. really found back the joy in long distance running when i accompanied chris to run the other time, when she was taking out her emotions. haha. after the run, i felt so refreshed and light, i had this urge to skip around the school like a small girl instead of walking! when coach came, played soccer with him and the juniors alittle as i waited for the rest to come.

AND OHH YES! its really a blessing to have this batch of juniors! they actually surprised us early on friday morning with those dao bao wrapper and spoon, and told us that they bought us breakfast as step down gift. but in fact, it was a new and super gorgeous soccerettes tee inside, and with their love and greetings written on the dao bao paper. i love the juniors and i really hope the best for them :D

played soccer here and there, then went to play volleyball with jingwen and theresa! the real volleyball hurts so much but it was fun! jingwen's way of playing was so unorthodox- its as though she's praying! haha. in a nutshell, friday was totally a bomb except for 1)they hid my hp again and 2)i misplaced my watch again. i'm the most absent minded girl anyone could have met! the soccerettes always scold me for it! haha.

spent a little part of my saturday studying for econs test later this week. but got disrupted because relatives came to visit so i spent same time playing with the babies! but the highlight of the day was catching The Dark Knight with my family :D ohhk, the show is a real blockbuster of the year. my heart was beating so fast throughout the movie lar. and really, heath ledger was so good, he as the joker, is the ultimate villian. super crazy and super smart. unfortunately, he has passed away and knowing this makes you feel sad because you no longer can be entertained by his acts. AND BATMAN is HOT. christian bale is. HAVE ANYBODY REALISED THAT HE LOOKS LIKE FERNANDO TORRES?! haha. i'm in love with he's voice when he's batman, so low and menancing. so anyway, my mom was asking me after the movie, "Why batman doesnt unleashed his superpowers to fight the joker?" my sis and i went O_O! "MOM! BATMAN DOESNT HAVE ANY SUPERPOWERS! HE FIGHTS WITH HI-TECH GADGETS!" hahaha.

on sunday, elaine and i went to witnessed theresa's baptism at her church. saw her at the front row when we came in. her church people are very warm, and her elders shook our hands when we came in. they handed us a testimony booklet, and when i flipped open to the first page, theresa's face and testimony was on the very first page! haha. after her baptism, elaine and i went to find her. she was so excited to see us! and her classmate, cho came too. took quite alot of photos before elaine rushed off for church service. and theresa got this guy friend who is really hot! haha. so anyway, met another friend of her's, kevin, who's super talkative and humourous, before we went to have breakfast at the bukit timah market. TAU HUA YUMMY! i'm in love with theresa and elaine!

went home after that and spent alittle of my afternoon making coach's card! and ohh yeahh, it was also jason's brithday so i wished him happy birthday and looks like pjc's people are really mugging hard. in fact, every j2s should mug hard by now. 3 more months please!

so coach's birthday was on monday! i was very excited the whole day, because the girls are celebrating it with him during dinner. in the morning, got the girls to write coach's card, which was creates a little mess each time as the glitter falls all around the table and floor. chris bought the team present, two boxers for him, one with a smiley face similar to AHEM'S one! hahaha. after school, jingwen and i bused down to holland v. and got coach two beautiful helium ballons, one's a soccer ball with "happy birthday" and the other which goes "birthday boy"! then we chose a party crown for him with intentions to sabo him to wear haha. the part shop at holland v is so interesting to hang out in. too bad they dont sell much kinky stuff. haha.

because dinner would be at 730, jingwen and i went to share a bowl of katong laksa together! YUMMY! much better and more generous than queensway laksa. after the light meal, we made our way to the mall to use the ladies. so i heard somebody making this "tsk tsk" sound. very loud and it was like calling out to someone. jingwen and i thought it was some mat or whatever so we continue walking into the mall, before somebody shouted "theresa seah!" i turned around, and ohh my, i saw LONG YISHU! like after 100000000000000000 years. hahaha. he looks so different can. although i knew he was working at holland v, really didnt expect to see him because we werent walking around the restaurants/pubs area. so apparently, i was stunned. i could only waved and smile and gasp abit haha.

sigh. i miss him alot. i dont know how to explain the feeling when i saw him yesterday. i mean after all, he was like always there for me when i broke up with noi. and its literally, always. and then now, we seldom exchange msgs, not to mention talk. but still, i'm always thankful for that period of time when he helped me through my most hellish moments.

bused, trained and walked to imm to meet up with the rest of the soccerettes! elaine theresa and i bought this huge inflatable soccer ball design seat for coach. i hope he likes it :D and i swear jas said the most cheesy line to elaine yesterday. i know how they always flirt with each other with corny words and coversations, but jas was like *hair stand* yesterday.

-elaine *points to jas's feet with the super gross abrasion scar*: why your feet like that?

-jas: because i was running after you.

-elaine: *stunned*

if you know elaine, she'll have the first hand reply to such lines. but apparently, jas caught her by surprised this time! haha.

finally after 10000 hours, we all managed to settle down in fish and co. and placed our orders. its not easy to take orders from such a big group! coach cabbed down after his takraw training, and somebody spoiled his day. as in, totally ruined it. shall not comment much here since blogs are never safe. anyway, we purposely made coach sit infront of AHEM haha.

i really hope he had a great time despite whatever unpleasant stuff that had happened. i'll upload the photos and blog about yesterday probably tml! one thing, we sure did sabo coach! lucky he's so spontaneous! haha. he said this was his first time receiving so many present at one short, and first time tio sabo like that on his birthday! ohh my. MY COACH MY HERO :D

was so tired yesterday, so didnt attend school today. i really find going to school a chore. i dread it alot everyday. the only saving grace is only seeing my friends. i'd rather stay at home and mug, which will definitely be more productive. i always have this ideal imagination in my mind- going to school in the morning for soccer training, lunch with team then reach home to study. its like my ideal day everyday until my As are over! hahaha.

ECONS TEST ON THURSDAY. AND DAMN, MATHS TEST ON FRIDAY. SURE FLUNG :)

i have been blogging actaully. the only thing is, i didnt posts my entries. because i've got rather little spare time on my hand right now, most of my entries are like half way complete. and so, they are all saved as drafts. today however, i'm determined to ressurect my dead blog! :D

ohhk. now i really know what stress is. as in STRESS. that kind of panicky, i'm-so-tired-but-cannot-sleep i've-got-no-more-time kind of STRESS. on the first day of school last week, i was already feeling the strain. well, blame it on my relaxing attitude that i possessed, in passing the 4 damn weeks of school holidays. but i was down to studying immediately when school reopened! because like what daryl and weizi said, even though i started off late, its still not too late yet.

and the stress i felt initially, was rather a motivation and discipline for me to study, but i'm rather burnt out by week 2! i guess its really much like exercising, running and doing sports. my body is not yet condition to hours of mugging, therefore leading to fatigue easily. however i believe, like stamina, it can be built up! all i have to do is perserve on, and i'll feel better in another week or 2! haha. i've never been so positive about studying before. but during dark times, its always good to look on the bright side! :D

so, the singapore government is encouraging us all to save on our energy usage! HEAR HEAR! my parents have been lamenting on the ever increasing PUB bills and all ever since once upon a time. anyway, thats not the point. the thing is, my school's taking a stringent stand in energy saving too, and from 8am to 9am every day, the air conditioner are all to be switched off! when first implemented, students and teachers alike are supposed to take the initiative to NOT TURN ON THE AIR CON. but like all pampered children this day, of course we feigned ignorance and on the air con anyway. so now, the school decided to control the main switch and yeahh, we cant turn the air cons on from 8 to 9 on our own freewill.

funnily enough, 1 hour without air con seems to kill all the students. we complain about the incredulously hot and humid weather, and how we cannot pay attention in class. even though, there's a fan right there. the fan would definitely not work as well as the air con, but thank God, there's a least a source to lessen the irritations.

i guess thats really human nature. we, for one, dont seem to be able to appreciate and think that for the rest of the hours in school, the HIGH ENERGY CONSUMING AIR CONS will be turned on for us. also, we're so pampered that we have to moan and groan just because of one short hour of "suffering". if you call that, erms, suffering. and then we start blaming the school saying, school so kiam siap, 1 hour of air con money also want to save. hmms, maybe we're really so ignorant to realise how expensive air conditioning is, plus the rising electricity bills. but of course! we're not the ones forking out the money, its the government! but hello! the government revenue are from our parents' income taxes! the botom line is, i really think that singaporeans only know how to complain, despite the flood of blessings they pretend not to notice all around them. they demand for the immediate benefits, and refused to see the bigger picture. our comfort zone unfortunately, is only the size of a matchbox.

whenever the soccerettes meet each other, we'll always hug and kiss and talk to each other at the top of our lungs. my friends commented that our behaviour are the likes of long lost friends. hahaha. well, the thing is, i'm really happy seeing them everyday. i look forward to hanging out with the girls, and dread to say goodbye. its really a sense of belonging and longing haha. i feel the same way for other friends too, like my classmates, old friends, but maybe because i'm not used to expressing my affection in such a flamboyant way to them, i didnt really do so.

but i strongly feel people should express their love for each other through hugs and kisses, at least on the cheeks haha. i really love BEAR HUGS! a hug, an embracing one, really show the love, care and concern people have for each other. whenever i hug someone and say take care, it really gives me a peace of mind, knowing that somehow, she will be alright and happy :) but of course, its rare to see friends of different genders hugging each other as a form of greeting, gratefulness or appreciation. i'm quite shy myself to do so. well, its probably due to our culture, which of course, is nothing wrong. but for the start, girlfriends! hug one another and spread the love! haha.

after school on friday, i ran all the way to the guard house to wait for jingwen to go home together because jasmine wants to chi wo tofu! haha. so i was standing at the entrance of the school gate alone, and i saw noi and his girlfriend walking out from the school canteen. obviously, they're going home, and they would have to walk pass me. i was like, "shit, fuck, where's jingwen!" and so, i quickly walked behind the guardhouse and pretend to look at the theresa and huiying who were running on the track. but in fact, i was hiding like a chicken. i so fucking hate myself for having no guts to face both of them. thank God jingwen came running behind them, so i came out from my hiding place, walked passed them, smiled to noi, and got to jingwen. it was a damn awkward moment! lucky jingwen came just at the right time. i know its really mean of me to think this way, but i wished instead of smiling at him when i walked passed, i should have just shoot out my middle finger. my unpredictable, unreasonable female hormones get all worked up everytime i see any noi-related or noi thingys. but i'm fine after awhile! just that at the bus stop, jasmine and chris openly molested and groped me!

really random thought, but i really like to say "jas & chris". its like so shun kou. like you're saying a brand name, example "hula & co." and "charles & keith" hahaha.

and i really like to thank all my friends whom i shared my father's problem with. thanks for the concern and those encouraging msgs. i feel really blessed. i'm really thankful and relief that my dad is fine, that the results proved negative for stroke. but its not exactly nice news either, to know that he's under tremendous amount of stress and pressure. my dad's health has constantly been weighing on my mind, and his decision to work overseas after he retired from the army does not appeal to me at all.

i didnt used to love my daddy alot because when i was young, my parents used to quarrel alot and also, he always used the rod on me because of my inability to comprehend maths. prob explain my lack of interest towards this very complicating subject haha. however, as i grow older, i realised my dad does love my family alot, and he shows it through meeting our every need and wants. its like, he's really willing to spend money at whatever we want, and not on himself. he also encouraged me to play soccer and he always say to me, "you're a big girl now, sensible already. must know how to make the right choices and discpline your ownself."

after the scare of signs of strokes, i am more against my dad to go overseas to work. and suddenly, it came as a motivation for me to study well, and do well for my A levels so that i can get into the uni and course i want. now that i dont have the ability to support my family yet, i guess i can lessened my daddy's worry through my being self motivation and achieving something which both mom and him can be proud of. i hope in the future, my sis and i can land ourselves in a prospective job and then, my daddy and mommy can enjoy life already! :)

i want to thank God for my ahma, daddy, mommy and sister :D


and YES SPAIN RULES!

Campeones! El cielos es el limite :) even though the jersey is too big for me, i'll still clad it on!

TESTIMONIAL MATCH TODAY! weeets :D and we've officially passed down. i will blog more about it another time!

ohh. and i must say, i really take my hat off xiaxue. she's really one of a kind man. respect her attitude, even though i dont necessarily agree with all her views and opinions. xiaxue reminds me of my very vocal and i'm-not-scared-to-voice-out-my-opinions friends like daryl, jill, junkai, jasmine, weizi and yingying. and i love engaging myself in conversations with them, especially junkai. hahaha :D

random photos!



















jingwen and i were resting at imm, then we played with this ohh-so charming 4 years old boy! and he took photos of us with my handphone cam! i swear i would date him if i could. he actually asked me to find him at imm the next day! haha.




stella's so CUTE lilo and stitch stuff toy

theresa's letter:

Turtle!
I'm glad you told me about it.
It's alright. We have our good days and
bad days but no matter what, we have
one another :)

Always tell yourself and Thank God for everything
"The Lord gave and the Lord has taken
away; may the name of the Lord be
praised."

Job 1:21

God put him in your life and he(Noi)created
so much happy yet painful memories.
You must still be joyful alright!
Job is the perfect example :)

I love you and cheer up!

<3 theresa


this is the rainbow after the storm :)

today's match with hwa chong was rather amazing because we won them 5-0! chris and i scored two goals each during 1st half and lixuan scored another one during 2nd half. Nice job girls! and lixuan, you fulfiled what you promised me! so proud of you :) haha.

brenda's message to me: Turtle, i think of your first goal i want to laugh leh. It was so surreal. And you even ask us if it was a goal! Haha. "Is that a goal is that a goal?!" Haha. :D

the ball was inside the penalty box already and somehow, the opponent got a handball. and the ball rolled towards me. my teammates were all like "ref! handball!" but the ref abit lax, didnt blow the whistle. and since the ball was rolling towards me, i just shoot it into the goal, although i wanted to shout "ref! handball!" too. haha. so i didnt even know if it was considered a goal because i thought the ref would like give us a penalty or something. sounds complicated right. aiyah. i also abit blur when the whole thing happened. but it was a goal :)

anyway, scoreline aside. i think i didnt perform up to my usual standard for this match. i can feel it deep within. its like, there's something more you can do, but its not coming out of your body. so even though we won, i dont feel exactly overjoyed because of my own indiviual performance. take for example, our match against powerhouse, vjc, when we got trashed (though i seriously dont think is our fault), i felt happy with my performance because i know i gave it all out. but today, there's like something stuck, cannot come out arh. haha. nevertheless, i saw many of my teammates perform well today, like huiying, who was really impressive :)

and my juniors really got potential leh! i'm proud of them! and i'm really opening up to them too. they're a great bunch of girls, no doubts about that. thats why i'm really looking forward to team dinner this coming friday, so that we all can bond and interact with them!

life without soccer is drawing nearer :/

random thoughts but i seriously think jas and chris are the cutest and most comical pair of people i've ever seen. hahahaha.

this evening, liverpool against arsenal again, but its the epl. i dont know what should i hope for. soccer matches are as unpredicatble as a woman's mood. hahaha. anyway, tuesday they would meet again in the champions league. but for that of course, i know liverpool will beat arsenal. certain things are just more definite :)

i love to eat!
