HELLO!
I haven't been here for a very long time, have I? When I logged in (just now) I realised that both my class blog AND my squad blog have been updated. Yes. Thus showing how I have SLIPPED IN BLOGGING. Sorry to all ._.
Hello.
It is not my fault, I repeat, NOT MY FAULT I have slipped! For 1. my laptop is under maintenance 2. I'm too lazy to use the desktop etc ._. Then when I actually want to use the desktop, of course the internet (and Internet Explorer) has to screw up and take an hour to load right? Of course.
Anyway yeah so this is really a once-in-a-lifetime update D:
Okay!
Okay!
I think I'm not in tune with my feelings/the keyboard/my blog -GASPPPPP- D: 'cos it's like... I'm here? sitting? and typing? but nothing meaningful appears. But lately I've been doing lots of reading! My writing style is changing ever-so-subtly (come on since when do I use phrases like ever-so-subtly? I never lor.) :O and I really should get onto my holiday -cough- homework -cough cough- but well, plenty of time -displays classic procrastinator's attitude-.
Bah! Pah!
Fiona is weird ._.
*
My life mainly consists of reading nowadays. Yesterday I went to Novena (for my brother's tuition, and Novena is excellent (zomg I forgot how to spell excellent :O! Like how I forget Pokemon names. But never mind.) when you're cooped up at Woodlands reading. So yes, yesterday my mother, my brother and I went to Novena and ate at the coffee connoisseur :D rawr then erm we went to a bookstore (MPH :D) to buy BOOKS!
AND GUESS WHAT?!
I BOUGHT TWO AGATHA CHRISTIE BOOKS!

HERCULE POIROT!

(If I believed in the abuse of exclaimation marks you'd have seen many more !s than usual. I mean, like, it is abnormal to see 2000 exclaimation marks in a day. So if you are, get help. Like seriously.)
Ahahaha do you feel the passion of the mystery fiction and Great Books flowing? (this is a rhetorical question! Answer it not!)
Okay I'm a bit high and jittery now -twitches-. Hmm okay never mind. After that book trip (very pleasant!) we went to Donut Factory 8D to eat. Donuts.
._.
Oh then we went home tralala.
*
How boring ):
Oh yes! Shopping (!). Some days ago I went to Bugis with my mother and grandmother and sister to eat :O then we shopped for wedding outfits (my aunt's wedding, and the clothes for my grandmother -.-) :D I basically enjoy shopping of any sort (even cutlery. Admiring details on forks is actually one of my passions.) so yeah! Plus I bought a tee. And a vest (!?) (-sigh- the consequence of believing in a good salesperson) to match the tee!
And my grandmother bought nothing (erm what ._.).
Anyway I've to talk about this dress (zomg you heard right a D-R-E-S-S :O) that my mother bought. It's for my aunt's wedding you know ._. but still a dress.
!
I am not comfortable in it (it being a dress D:)! But I will survive -end of rant about dresses-.
Is that all? I think it's all.
P.S. libraries are excellent and marvellous places! I go there every four days. I kope books.
P.P.S. bye.

Sweet sixteen ahahahahaha like Elaine says.
I actually can find a lot of weird sweet sixteen songs on the internet, but they are all extremely unsuitable ._.

On second thought, maybe I shouldn't put them here o.o
Last of all!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
one month (or so) early ._.

That is all for this mediocre post.

Okay I finally finished The Amber Spyglass ._. After a long time but still! I'm crapping ._.
Today is my mother's birthday :D! And unit outing ._. (eh so suay why same day D: then I leave my mother at home alone with her birthday leave) (yes her company got birthday leave! So she took it.)
Okay so unit outing was fun 8D except the fact that I felt like vomiting randomly during the course of the running D: But overall it was bearable and high! My group was Hawk Girls :D so we modified the Hot cheer and it became
I got a fever
I'm hawk (this part is chao irrelevant -.-)
I cannot be stopped
Heh. Anyway I like the quiz thing! (Except I got breathless halfway and was frightened. Like the air was suddenly strangely oxygenless :O and I couldn't breathe properly D:) New facts new facts. But I forgot what http stood for :/ (dumb D:) and I forgot the names of the members of DBSK (so pathetic ._.) D: So overall not very good :/
Anyway it was fun. I'm rather loserish at charades though ._.
Anyway. I'm bored. Life is rather meaningless to me right now, there's no direction (all aimless wanderings and such). I'm not a very driven person but I appreciate some sort of... road (my vocabulary is failing me!). But anyway yes I just have to set my own goals then to try to create some sort of feel.
Okay I don't know what I'm talking about ._. I'm probably quite incoherent -_-
So bye (and sorry for the sucky contentless posts, really)!

Hmph yesterday I lost to my cousin (younger than me D:) at SQUASH! I now have an intense loathing for squash. And table tennis.
-gives a hopeless look-
I am trying to comfort myself. It isn't my fault that I've no ball sense at all D: I shall continue to believe that my cousin is a very sporty and active person, while I am not, so obviously I'd lose to him what -forced smile-.
Okay onto a sadder subject.
Cookie died ): from... (Ying Tong just kill me now) a tumour. Yes. Because Cookie was inbred, you see (his parents were siblings! Scary or not ._. we totally didn't expect Hamleto to erm... move so quickly lar D: they were like 3 weeks old ._. tsk). Thus a tumour.
Anyway D: we decided to... let Cookie live the rest of his life happily (hello! "A hamster with a tumour may live a normal and happy life but try to avoid any sharp objects as these could cause the tumour to burst.") but well yeah. I suppose he was rather happy :D and actually come to think of it he's quite old... two years? Which means Hammie is three years old (!) and oh well the inevitable will come soon.
...
Imagine me, being exposed to deaths at such a tender age :O
(like Viver D:)
(I miss Viver like !@#$!# much zomg -cries-)
(But I am brave, and all that.)
Anyway I've to go now, bye :D
P.S. I'm reading The Amber Spyglass by Philip Pullman :D

It's the last day of school! And to be honest (tbh)(not Tan Boon Hian ._.) I've no freaking idea how I am going to occupy these two months. There is holiday homework, but I am reasonably confident I'll be able to complete them in around a month (or less :D)(erm. Not factoring in the procrastination that might possibly occur). So, I ask myself, the other one month, how leh?
Here are some ideas:
1. Go library and read books! Kope all the books I want 8D
Am feeling very kiasu ._.
2. Go to school everyday to stone!
Too far away and no, so pointless :O
3. Go out with people!
:D so funz. But I'll be broke in two days or something like fifty-seven minutes.
So probably I'll do all three? Since 1. the library is awesome 2. I've to return to school for various events ._. 3. going out is fun, what. And balance you know.
I realise this post is weird and pointless -.- let me uh, narrate the happenings in my life today.
Yes.
Morning went down with squadmates :O assembly and level closure.
Then uh... cleaned up classroom, etc. etc. Lunch! Something unfortunate happened between so-and-so and so-and-so-two (so-and-so slid a cookie box over to so-and-so-two, then the bowl of food dropped on her skirt. Then so-and-so-two was damn angry and randomly waved the bowl at so-and-so. Flecks of the food flew everywhere, including on me. Thank you very much ah. Thank you.) so my hongzi had this elephantine patch of chawanmushi on it.
Do not ask.
So went toilet with Nicole and so-and-so-two -coughs- and Nicole washed that patch on my hongzi (thank you :D) o.o so-and-so-two managed awesomely to wet her entire skirt so we went to get a new one at the General Office.
Ladeeda -hums-.
After that... collected report books/took class photographs :) my results are like _. Fiona = fail D: especially compared to the rest of my class -raises eyebrows dangerously high-. Walao eh tsktsk who got 1.0 msg huh.
-glares at Yi Xin :D-
Anyway! Set off for the ISO (Individualized Study Options ._.) exhibition (that I volunteered for yesterday -_- to replace 213 seniors who were busy at dramafest). Actually quite boring, even if you didn't consider the fact that I'd seen all of it before ._. but still :O not bad I did learn stuff. I felt damn tired during the oral presentation though ):
Hmm then went home directly from Republic Polytechnic seeing as my house is damn near :D (Cheryl and Ting Ting were supposed to go to my house! But it was late! So I let them off from the goodness of my heart. In exchange for money. To buy bubble tea.)
Okay bye :O I'm actually quite philosophical/contemplative now. But thoughts, sometimes too long to be expressed just like that (someday maybe I'll blog them out! But no, my metacognition is so fast it's freaky o.o).
P.S. I Will Remember You by Ryan Cabrera (erm, spelling?) was playing during some class' montage in the canteen's TV :3

title:sentosa today!
date:Wednesday, November 4, 2009 | 6:08 PM

Yes! Today we went to Sentosa (Palawan Beach :D) for fun. And a sand sculpture competition.
But anyway yes we went there (in our tops and bermudas ._. and slippers ._.) :O
First we played dodgeball/captain's ball/volleyball/talked etc. Then it started to rain D: so we sought refuge in a shelter. Then we ate pringles and waited for the rain to stop. When it did, we ran out to this random pavilion :O, put our stuff down and did random stuff. Some of us decided to sit near the sea and talk, which then somehow progressed wto filling this deep deep (knee-deep! The people must be damn free ._.) trench we found :D with WATER.
Yes obviously we weren't supposed to touch seawater... but we used pails leh, not counted right.
._.
Then somehow this became a 113-bonding-project, and we ended up with three trenches and linking canals :D made entirely out of sand and seawater that rushed in! I tell you so cool can or not so cool :D!
I shall pester some people to post pictures on Facebook and then I shall kope :D!
Anyway so funz 8D
Oh yeah then we camwhored and it rained. Again.
-pissed D:-
But at least we managed to complete the structure :O which is really majestic and awesomez 8)
We also weren't allowed to go and buy stuff from the shops at Sentosa, but while the second rain was ongoing more than half of us flooded into 7-11 to buy Slurpees/Big Gulps/instant noodles/whatever else o.o
Okay end :D
(I'm not in a very writy mood lar ._.)

Hello everyone :D I am feeling normal.
-normals around-
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA YOU CAN TELL I'M NOT!
School is ending soon ._. act today was rather abnormal actually :O maybe it wasn't gastric pains but a mild symptom of stomach flu. My father has it (!) D:
Promotion :) yey.
I should sleep now D: Thursday I'm skipping school for CIP :O at Republic Polytechnic (at WOODLANDS :D like within walking distance of my house! A long walking distance but yes.). Basically it's quite slack (?) according to Xuan Li :D and somemore we're helping out for the IRS exhibition (which some of us from 113 are going to on Friday ._. including me -_-).
Anyway byebye, goodnight, and etc. enjoy your holidays? I'm planning on sleeping early :D and leading the healthy lifestyle I have never led.
Thank you ._.
