The Low Down.

I have watched
New Moon in the cinemas already. It's so much more better than Twilight. Plus, the duration of New Moon is longer too. Even though the final scene was a major cliff-hanger. If you read the book, you'd understand why they left the last scene as that. Anyway, I watched it with my close cousin & my sisters. Oh, man. I just love New Moon so much. I thought I was going to dislike it because Jacob
(aka Taylor Lautner) would be in
3/4 of the scene, surprisingly, I didn't mind Jacob being in the scenes. I mean, the werewolf guys were pretty good- looking.
Hot! I am still a
Team Edward (the book version of Edward, not the movie). We bought the tickets damn early, like 3 hours early cause we could not book online nor call
(no credit card). That plus the fact that we were so scared that the tickets would be sold out early. Hence, the early departure from home & the early arrival of us. We walked around Orchard Road, cause 2 hours is a lot of time to kill. To end of this paragraph, New Moon is a must watch. No matter if you have read the book or not. However, reading the book, will allow you to understand the character more.
I joined
LM & the sister + nephew this afternoon. The reasons:
(1) She asked me to join her.
(2) I did not have anything planned for the day.
(3) She was nearby my place. It was fun. Her nephews are so cute & her sister is so nice. Diplomatic description, but it is true. Honestly. Itinerary for the next day is, go out to Orchard Road with my uncle & aunt. This is going to be a busy week, cause of the week's outing, running errands
(my iPhone is giving me trouble - again), plus a whole lotta things that I cannot recall at the moment. Busy, busy week. As busy as a bee, or was it as busy as an ant? Oh well. I need to get loads of things at bargained prices too. I am being thrifty, all right!
Hey, did I tell you that GRAD NIGHT was the BOMB. I tell you, even though it is cliche to the core, I enjoyed myself a lot. I mean, the dressing up and the companions I have. It is just an icing of my whole 5 years in the school. Even though I hate school so much, I enjoyed myself a lot. There was actually so many things that I did not like on the day itself
(my tablemates, my lucky streak was at an all-time low & so much more), but I was really looking on the bright side of life. Literally. It was held at a HOTEL, for the first time in many, many years!
Goodbye school hall &
HELLO HOTELS. (; So,
FRIGGIN' AWESOME! (:

Truths Surfaced, Secrets Revealed
Wednesday, November 18, 2009
Late last night, my cousins & I sat at the dining table and started talking & talking about anything that came to mind. Everything about past, present & future came up. We laughed, we laughed & we laughed. It was nice to know that I am still close to my cousins even up till now. Weird how my family dynamic works.
Oh well.
Right now though, the feeling is bittersweet. Seriously, bittersweet. There isn't anything that can be done to overcome this feeling. Sad, but true.
Grad Night (aka Prom) is coming. 2 more days to go. Scary stuffs, scary stuffs. No one will be helping me get ready for it, I think. Might as well just go, I mean, I already paid the full price for it. So expensive. Anyway, the problem is the transportation & the getting there. Troublesome & cumbersome, I tell you.

Thanksgiving.
Sunday, November 15, 2009
I hope my parents will be having a huge send off. This weekend has been quite quick for me, but since I have nothing to worry about other than my results next year, I think it was rather good. My family held some form a thanksgiving for my parents before they go off & do their duty. My cousins from KL have come here to send my beloved parents off too. I think, no matter how they raise me up & all that stuff that parents do, I will still love them dearly. I mean, they are my parents for heaven's sake. Plus they have raised me up in a weird way. Which is good, right? Oh well, everyone is starting their own family soon. Which means, my sisters and I are left. Does that even make sense? (:

Bottled Anger.
Thursday, November 12, 2009
I changed my blogskin, again. The previous one was just temporary.
I couldn't have left my blog without a skin, now can I? Anyway, my dad didn't allow me to go exercising with K. I was pissed, it is an understatement. If he is going to be like that towards be, then fine, I will wait till he goes away to do what I want to do. Without his permission & knowing. Beat that, Dad! Whenever I ask him for permission, he says no. Then,
how the hell am I supposed to do anything if everything he will do is turn me down? How can he expect me to tell him anything? Why do I even bother asking for permission when this is what I get? I feel like I have been rejected more times from my dad than anyone combined. Honestly. I would have understood him if he won't allow me to go during the year. But, COME ON! My examinations are over for crying out loud. What irritates me more is that he doesn't give reasons for not allowing me to go out. I don't care if he is the
'Man of the house'. Seriously, I need
freedom, space. It's like,
"GOD, forbid she go out!" My maid thinks that my dad does this cause he is afraid I have a boyfriend. Lame excuse. Why can't he just snap out of the fact that keeping me 'locked' up is doing more damage than good. My mum isn't better off too. Sheesh. I sometimes wonder if this is what their parents did to them. However, with the stories that I hear, I doubt so.
I want to buy something. I am keeping my fingers crossed that my mum would allow me to buy the stuff that I want. Wishing, hoping, praying.
I feel like an ugly duckling, really, I do.
For the reocrd, I DO NOT have a boyfriend
(even though sometimes I wish I do).I think boyfriends at this age is a waste of precious time for me. Immature, basically.

Everything in Between
Wednesday, November 11, 2009
Oh yeah, finally the wait is over. I am now as free as a bird. As free as I ever was, really. Looking forward, though very, very afraid of my results. It's due early January next year. (: I sat for my last paper this afternoon, Science (Physics/Chem) paper 1. As much as I was elated that it was my last paper, I felt a wee bit nauseous. I mean, cause it was MCQ & there were so many options that are closely related that you kinda have to pick the exact right answer. In other words, paper 1 was a tough nut, tricky too. Anyway, I got the consent form for Grad Night (aka Prom). Copthorne King Hotel, 4 Havelock Road. Yeah well, go figure. Question is, "Does anyone actually know how to get there?" Cause as far as I know, it's close to Zouk (useless information from my favourite Social Studies teacher) Actually, she's the only Social Studies teacher that has ever taught me, so yeah. Closest MRT station (from the gossip I overhear) is City Hall? Huh. All I know is that getting back wouldn't be such a problem for me. The only major problem is getting there, what to do & whether to hail a cab from the closest train station. (: The rest, i have already prepared for. Hopefully, it turns out right on the day itself. Sometimes, my mind doesn't work as well as on the actual day itself. From what I see though, there's going to be a lot of girls with 'naturally curly' hair do. Yeah, a handful of them acutally permed their hair already. Nice timing, I must say, for the 'biggest' event of our whole secondary school year. As much as I want to make it big deal out of this whole Grad Night, I will try not to. I mean, I find it so superficial & shallow. With so many Hollywood movies I have watched, Grad Night is so cliche for me. But oh well, girls being girls, they dress to impress everyone, me included. I mean, indirectly, it is the last time anyone is going to see anyone for God knows how long. That is, unless you have good friends, then it is a night to remember. Learn from High School Musical 3: Senior Year. Graudating ladies/ girls should learn from Hollywood movies. You should learn & breathe prom night.Hey, I think I want to shed some kilos, maybe 2 to 3 kg, to satisfy myself. I haven't been in shape for like 3 months. I tried resorting to not eating (not being anorexic), just didn't have to appetitie to eat, that's all. Now, I am resorting to being healthy, which means, EXERCISING! As you can see (read) I am not a being fan of physical activities, so this may come as a surprise to people close to me. They see me as the girl who wouldn't get off the chair for anything. Damn lazy, huh? I am going for the Red Camp. It's actually a full 3 day camp, no sleepovers (thank God!). Ngeen Ann Poly is organising it. A few of my friends signed up for it, but one kinda 'forced' me to it, really. As much as I wanna lazy my ass off the next few days, I cannot. I will be too busy this week. Exercising, hopefully get some shopping done. Like I said, shopping is a hopeful yearning. Might as well get this over and done with cause the week after Grad Night will be as mundane as my life. Which says a lot, cause my life wasn't so happening to begin with. LOL. (: Anyho, I have got to ask my dad permission for the many activities that I want to do before he says no. (:xoxo,NJ (:
