I. Am. Bored. Beyond. Belief.


Awoke this morning and realized. Smack. Tomorrow is camp.


So I start packing and absolutely cannot believe that I was forced to BUY fbts ( which you know, I don't own at all) and its SO bleak today that there is a possibility I might not be a happy camper tomorrow.



DARN.


But! I just found out that we got free 125 dollar tickets to go catch We will Rock You sometime in April so... YAY:)




I miss them people terribly. While I was glancing through the photos in my com, I came across a whole bunch of vids that we made in class which were AWFULLY hilarious, that I LOVE 4/6 all over again. Out of all the Thirty-odd shorts vids I have of us, SOME have emerged victorious, as my all time favs. LIKE the ones where we....

- Fed Audrey Roller Coaster rings through the window grill?
- Beat Pao up?
- Secretly caught the Sim in her Mao shoes?
- Caught Abee and I running along to the sounds of Britney Spears and JT?





Good times, good times.

That. Was so totally boss. ;

Its been a week of catching up and going to school.


Monday! Was Starbucks at Siglap with Abee and Pasu only BECAUSE.

Our plan to crash Abee's school FAILED. How so?


Pasu and I had a perfect plan. Meet at Bedok, hop on public transport that would take us to TP, walk in during one of Abee's breaks and SURPRISE her. We already did the necessary research, what time she was going to get off school and whether she was free after that. So the time came, and I stood in the hot hot station and waited for Pasu to arrive. THEN.


I got a phone call from the Bee. It was Two-ish.


Abee: Chew! where are you now?
me: Uh.... uh... ( panicks) Out?

Abee: Like WHERE la.
me: Uh... not at home?

Abee: - makes a sound -
me: What's up ? aren't you in school? are you having like a break?

Abee: No! I ended school early so now I don't know what to do.
me: ( curses in head and dies. ) I'm supposed to meet Pasu now!

Abee: where? I can just come over and meet you guys.

me: - pauses-


...




...




me: NOOOOOOOOOOOO. !!!
Abee: whaaat?


me: PASU-AND-I-WERE-SUPPOSED-TO-COME-CRASH-YOUR-SCHOOL-BUT-NOW-YOU-ARE-SAYING-YOU-ENDED-SCHOOL-ALREADY-SO-YOU-KILLED-OUR-PLAN!!! AHHHHHH!



silence.



Abee: AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
me: funny HUH.



Abee: so both of you were just gonna come crash?
me: yes.



Abee: so can I meet you guys now?
me: kay.




IN THE END. Our plan totally failed. it got downgraded from Crashing school, to having dinner to just having starbucks at siglap. aha. funnyfunny.


however. we did make a discovery.

PRESENTING.... OUR NEW FAVOURITE DRINK!

The marvelous-ly HEAVENLY White chocolate Mocha Frappe


Tuesday was SUPPOSEDLY shopping with Jia for school but it didnt quite work out cos we eventually... went to school. She had to get her notebook and I had software installation. And since the only place in the school I know how to navigate to without getting terribly lost is the convention centre, naturally, I got lost trying to find the building with the room with the softwares with the installation people.



But that eventually worked out.



Wednesday and thursday was work and friday was... shopping with the Bee!

After church in the morning, I headed over to City hall to meet the bee for sushi lunch and attempted shopping for school ( which is constantly failing) . Waited for her arrival in Starbucks and played like 20 rounds of bubble breaker to kill time ( and also to look like i was busy doing something) . ha. So we lunched, caught up, walked into guardian and called for various products, walked on to Raffles to check out J.CO coffee and doughnuts ( which everyone seems to be raving about)walked over to the other doughnut shop instead, and purchased ONE doughnut each. Walked over to these flower stands for the opening of some shop, stood around, pretended to appreciate the flowers ( but we were actually just secretly happy that we found a corner to stand in) , and began to consume our newly bought baked goods.


ahahaha.




Then came the desperate combing of River Island to find something to buy cos of that 20% sale they were having.


We walked out with a tank top each.


WOW. ha.



So since raffles mall was becoming increasingly boring, we headed over to town where the following events occurred.



"shieng shieng!"
"Look at this Moose shirt!"
" So many moose... they are MEESE! AHAHA."
"You flash, I splash!"
"Abee. Are you going to stuff your SHOES, SKIRT, dress, AND shirt into that tiny bag of yours?
" You know, in the event of an earthquake..."
" We can all jump in my bag!"


silence.


" I was gonna say you'd never run out of outfits!"




silence.




" AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA."



" You know, from now on I will be hanging out at King Albert Park after school like how we hung out in Tamp mall last time."


-pause-

...


...


" Is it ACTUALLY a park?"






yeah we need to get a life.





HA.





The flower said I wish I was a tree
The tree said I wish i could be
A different kind of tree
The cat wished that it was a bee
The turtle wished that it could fly
Really high into the sky,
over rooftops and then dive,
Deep into the sea!



oh.

That. Was so totally boss. ;

MOSAIC has officially ended! Tis been a cool work experience i would say, especially the part where we get to catch the shows going on:) ahahahahaha. too cool. I will however, still continue to laugh over how...


We ate from the same store almost everyday?
Angie and I had our survival kit of chocolates and JUICE?
We nearly collapsed when Sondre Lerche strolled past us?
There were these constant heated discussions over Singapore education?
GONGMAPAJIEYIAHMA ( i probably spelt that wrong) came about?
My cell phone got FORCEfully taken away for SOME peoples' addiction to bubble breaker? ahaha
The amazement that struck me when I played BEjeweled?
Marble madness ruins my life.
" this kind of music! Ga ET gong wei wan! "


yeah don't ask.


AND.


Sondre Lerche is cute. His music is also pretty damn awesome.
So is Trey Lockerbie !!

But no one can beat Raul Midon's guitar skills. it's INSANE.



So besides popping in and out of the Esplanade everyday for the past week, I've been incredibly busy with...


FORMS. FORMS. ENDLESS FORMS.

Honestly, WHAT is up with the utterly complicated and high tech registration for school! I even had to go cram with a bunch of aunties and uncles checking out their CPF amount for the sake of checking it out JUST to get my singpasswhatever in order to pay for my poly fees. Can't we just kick it old school and have a simple procedure so that I can get my bum in school by April fourteenth? FRUSTRATION-ISM i tell you. OH. that's not the end. After getting the Singpass, I had to log in to some website to confirm some stuff AND. My com is THEE best. Just when i CLICKED the submit button and started to feel happy that I finally accomplished something out of my sad life that currently rotates around FORMS, this message bubble pops out.



" We are unable to carry out your request as the java applet (whatsitcalled) is not initialised."


@#$%!&!&@^&**&%@%$@%@ !!!!!!!!!!



So me being not very technologically technological, failed to even TRY to understand what it meant. My brain just started MELTating from all the frustration and so, I yelled for D - A - D. Who eventually did somethin and it worked out. ha. Story of my life.



BACK. to now. Which reminds me.

I. am. officially. THISTHISTHISTHISSSS much cooler! Just got my MACBOOK yesterday and its GORGEOUS. ( also considering the fact that it belongs to me. ahahaha.) Its IN-CRE-DA-BA-LLLLYYYY fabulous:) peer below to LAY your eyes on its fabulous-ness. and other stuff from the past two weeks as well. ahahaha.
yeah i have no idea why this is so tiny.
My initial eagerness to begin school has begun draining away. BEcause. I realize that I have TWO freshman-orientation-stay-over-camp thingiwimmies that are like a WEEk away from now. There are still SO many forms to hand in and I have to head down to school with Jia on tuesday to attend some software setup thing for our notebooks AND another 3 hour macbook training thing sometime in April. Wow. Darn. And then there's the freshman orientation camp and the MCM camp. Things are officially starting to get busy! I have also decided against taking Korean or JAP as my third lang and settled on... SPANISH! lessons like start on the first day of school.

Potentially crashing some school with dode and ( according to her) Pasu as well, tomorrow. but it would be great if it were NOT SRJC AGAIN. Seriously, the students there are going to think that I'm an undecided transfer student who can't seem to decide between SRJC and SRJC. And Dode might as well trade her fireproof uniform for the peachy SR- Christmas tie one since she seems to love the school so much! As for the rest of my free time till camp...



Shopping and badminton awaits me.





XOXO,
and more X's and O's,
SONIA.

That. Was so totally boss. ;

YO. Well well. Lately its been all about crashing as many schools as possible, the Dode and I are officially crashing buddies, and I got a fabulous new CELL PHONE. Cool. ness.


So I haven't exactly been updating a lot. Now I will! oh. School's starting in about one-ish months yes, I am officially in Ngee Ann poly, mass comm, and 5 hours away from my fellow MEN in crime, who are all supposedly either congregated around the AMK ( yes, that's the coolER way to say Ang Mo Kio haha) or Tampines area ( TP)where most of the people who used to surround me in class are. And yes, Temasek Poly is where the TRIPLE A alliance dwells. This is one thing Audrey is extremely proud of, finally forming her very own brotherhood, while the rest of us, ( which includes everyone from me to Weelyn to dode to Abee to clarissa to maxine to Jo and actually...EVERYONE) to stand on the sidelines and laugh our butts off. aha. Audrey, my fellow corncop rebel and congressman; I sympathy. :)


Last week was strange but yet cool, cos The Bee and I finally managed to bond over Fish and Sea MOnkey! oh. Lots to catch up on, the fool is actually packing her bag for school (which I probably forgot how to do ) and we have officially agreed that the prices in fish and co seemed to have gone down! We might be wrong but since when have I been wrong?




Do. Not. Answer. That.




Friday was crashing-CJ-man-on-a-mission-day. Fail! oh. So Dode snuck me in, got me to wear the CJ shirt ( which I did, with old school shorts. and converse high tops. And an armful of jangles. And hair let down.) So basically, everything else gave me away and the people there seemed to stare upon me as a foreign particle, not CJC material and.... non jockish! ahaha. So while Dode was failing in her volleyball auditions, I was left to stone and hide my face when ** insert white pasty name here** walked by. Fool. Thank goodness there was no recognition whatsoever on his part. The blue CJ shirt protects and camouflages! oh. So for dinner we headed to cafe cartel at plaza sing ( where the free flow of bread is like the only good thing) and cam whored in Starbucks where I bumped into Mabel! She seems to be doin great. Went home early where i crashed and bonded with Louisa over the phone till One-ish in the morning while my folks left me for drinks and some birthday thing ( happy birthday joshua) at the ButterscotchWhatever-its-called place. Saturday was like BLEAK and STONE. haha. Sunday was church, where I stupidly forgot ( and thus am feeling really bad now) to attend the youth trilogy with a bunch of, well.. YOUTHS. aha.


Monday was crashing-SRJC-day with Dode! With an effective from of entertainment coming in the form of soccer-team hopeful Anthony Lim, ( who knows, maybe he's secretly affiliated to John Lim) and the reunion of some 4sixERS! While Dode was busy with her CJ affiliates, I bonded with Louisa ( who tried to run away but failed), Ethel ( who will now be my fellow SR toilet buddy!) , Sam and Tash! We headed to the cafe upstairs to have lunch then went over to the field area to laugh at the people training. ha. So while Dode and her sidekicks, ( or rather, the coolER CJ people and THEIR sidekick HAHA) were secretly in the process of capturing fellow friend anthony's pain while he was running like 5 million rounds around the track, Sam, Tash and I bonded over... certain issues! And it just made me miss them 10 billion times more. Which is why I will lie to whoevers at the gate that I'm a transfer student without a uniform the next time to meet em awesome people. ha. It was a pleasant school. Unfortunately, the PAO failed to be in school. Till next time man.



Thanks to David, he drove Dode and I back to her place where the strangest things occurred. Like. Ingesting pomelo. Dode eating ham right out of the fridge. Me attempting to prevent Dode from K.Oing right there. Dode eventually K.Oing in her room. Me DISPATCHING! and Telling dode YOU IS GARLIC in german. Her sister walking in just to shake her head at dode on falling asleep on a guest.



My mom called me up this afternoon after lunch. It went like this.



mom: NIA! we went for lunch at big splash today at some Kopitiam thing
me: Kay dude.


mom: The coffees good, the currys good! the foods really good, everythings very kopitiam-ish
me: yo, i think my friends are working there


- pause-


mom: YEAH! Maxine was like " AUNTY AUNTY! Hi!" and there was this girl, Jolene or something who said " hello aunty! I sit behind Sonia in class! " and... some other girl ah.

me: I think that girl is Amanda Chan



mom: Huh? Dunno
me: Is she tanned and quite small?


mom: Yeah! and her hair is like... layered like...


me : Yup. Its Amanda Chan.
mom: okay.




Conclusion! Jocks are insignificant. ahahahahaha. oh.


Tomorrow will be TPJC. As for now, I will be DISPATCHING! to the soup spoon for dinner with other comrade.


Hopefully the Colbie Cailat( however her name is spelt) thing will work out with the Bee! Yes. You may now peer below and entertain yourself with PHOTOS.
