Happy Birthday!!!!!! :DDDDDD

Thought I forgot didn't you?

We met in the year 2006 when we were both 10 years old. She says when she first saw me she hated me T__T and when I saw her, I didn't care who she was.

But then, everything changed the year after that! I think it was because we both joined a dancing thing then her friends turned their back on her and we both kinda just hung out after that.

Here is us playing dress up last year in my room!

That's not my bra, that's just the dress tag. I wore my dress wrongly.

My favorite memory of us was in Form 2 when she invited me to her school's prom. I wore the exact same dress as in the picture. We talked for hours and hours and hours about everything and anything!

If I could describe her in one word, it would be... KIND. She is seriously kind. She brought me shopping last year! She knows me so well... Maybe I should bring her shopping this time too?

Dear Tiara,

You are an amazing friend! And I'm sorry if lately I have been distant and whatever, its just mood swings. Hormones... *hand gesture

OMG You're 17 now!!!! Its been 7 years already can you believe that!

It seems like just yesterday that we were jumping across that huge drain and walking back and forth to tuition. And talking at that swing in front of tuition. And remember that haunted house??? Scared me everytime we passed it. And remember that dead cat on the way to tuition and we saw it rot the whole year? Lololol.

I hope that you get an awesome 17th birthday ya! Blog about it!

In 3 years, we'll be 20 and probably in University.

In 13 years, we'll be at the peak of our career and probably with kids.

In 24 years, we'll be 40 and complaining about mid-life crisis lol.

But I hope that we'll still be friends forever! And if we ever drift apart (knock wood), I hope we'll meet each other again and go to your place at Paris and drink tea while basking in bikinis under the sun.

And come lets hang out sometime in CNY? I'm going to kampung for a while though.

Love,

Crystal



Annoying Store People

Today I went out to the shops near my school with some of my friends and things just infuriated me so much!!!

Almost every store we went to acted like we were criminals out to steal their items! Sometimes I want to throw money to their faces just to say 'I got money!! I don't need to steal!!'

Like in Guardian, this dude said to us, "Are you done cooling yourselves?" Well that would have hurt if the sole reason we were there was to leech on the aircon. But I wanted to buy a new moisturiser bha.

And then when I was paying for it, the dude asked me to help him pay for it. He was probably joking but it was still awkward and uncomfortable for me. Especially just after he just said something mean.

Him : Pay mine as well?
Me : Um.... Ok?

* Cashier hands me my change and receipt.

Him : Have you paid these? *pushes his 'pills' towards me
Me : Um... No? *run away

And this happened in the supermarket as well! We took a picture together when this worker asked if we took a picture in this mean harsh tone. So we said yes la cause we did. And then nothing happened. So was the point of using the tone if we didn't do anything wrong????

Never going there AGAIN! Or going to that Guardian!

I'm going to Watsons only. Their service is always nice and polite.

When I open my own boutique all my salesgirls will be polite and helpful. If not then I myself will take care of the boutique.

Oh ya, haven't you heard? I want to become a businesswoman now.

I Have Nothing Amazing To Contribute

They say that if you are torn in choices, just flip a coin and the one face that you hope will turn up will be the answer. So I fllipped a coin and I hoped that I will be taking EST.

Then the coin turned up on the EST side so I'm happy!! :D

And you know what, EST is pretty fun.

Today we talked about cloning in humans and whether or not we agree with it. Personally I don't because we are meant to be this way so why fight against what is natural right?

Its like a toy. Its meant to work a certain way but if you push it too hard beyond its capabilities, it'll get broken.

Still I still had fun talking about it with our small group of 8 people.

That's right. Eight! Including teacher. And next week it'll probably be six or five.

Today we talked about all these people having cloning done to live or to get babies or to replicate an organ.

And there was this one case teacher told us about when this little girl got her head blown off by a shotgun and she lived literally with half a brain. Cool or not???

And we talked about how girls need to keep warm and guys need to keep cool because if we don't then somehow there will be something wrong with our reproductive system. Girls, notice that when you drink cold water during your period you get cramps? Right right or not?

And I have never had a sore throat from eating hot food and surprisingly a guy in class said he did!! I didnt know that was possible.

I love these things!

There's this boy in class, Voon and he's so kind, smart, good looking and open. I don't know why but I admire these kinds of guys.

And he's athletic! Perfect.

Lol why am I like this.

Anyway I'm glad he's a friend now cause I kinda feel lonely in EST and there's only three people I talk with comfortably. Garrett, Chong and Voon. All guys. Nuuuuu!!! I want some girl friends!

Haih its okay la. They're a pretty cool trio though a little shy. Except Chong. Chong has no shame lol.

And you can ask them anything about boy stuff. And Voon said something amazing that I went wow for just now!

I can't tell you what (I'm sorry) but it just made his naive and innocent demeanor that much more attractive. Clue : He said something very good boy. And its probably a private thing so I shouldn't blog about it. Aahhh I'll stop now.

Gasp could this be yet another crush??? No no no. Its just admiration.

You know, I find that nowadays, I tend to be wayyyy more honest than I was in Form 1. In Form 1, whenever something or someone impresses me, I would keep quiet because later that someone will think differently. Like if its a guy, he would think I like him or something ridiculous like that.

But I tend to just tell people what I think now. Of course it has to be a positive comment la. I'm sure if I pass too many negative comments someone will punch me someday.

Maybe its cause people are more matured now too I guess.

Plus, everyone likes being told that they're doing a great job right! I mean, I love gettin reassurance from people that I'm doing something right. And daddy said treat people the way you want to e treated.

So that will be my first February resolution.

VALUE PEOPLE.

Oh ya, and today I talked to someone who I don't really like in class. And when I talked to her without any prejudice, it was actually nice. She says some pretty wise stuff and although I still have some uneasy feelings about her, its still not nice to dislike someone without reason right?

But how do you control dislike? I would love to love hot weather if I could but I just don't. I hate it to the core of my heart. Even in class, I would go to the last seat at the back just to get some fan and wind. Even in Bio I would sit at the same sit under the fan although its more practical to choose a seat nearer to teacher. Its just so stressful being hot (lolololol).

I can't control my dislike!!!

Lol, but I think I'm getting over my dislike for this person. I don't know.

Well I've done my bit on the internet which is talking about crap again. But someone out there might find this crap genius right?

Right???

To Take Or Not To Take

I only spent 2 hours sleeping last night and I don't feel sleepy during school at all! What is this sorcery?!

Today at school Sarah told me that narrator guy has a girlfriend and I feel so broken hearted right now... Its ridiculous! I've only seen him once and already I'm like this.

But but but all the Disney movies said....

Nevermind.

Did you guys know about my love hate relationship with EST (English For Science and Technology)?

Well I've been wanting to drop the subject because its so useless and such a waste of time but my mother won't let me. She says its a free Aa right there.

Its my choice right!!!

EST is a really tricky subject because the smallest mistake will drop you down to an E from an A. True story.

Forgot a word in that important point of yours? Too bad, FAILED! My parents can't seem to understand that!

And I had to write about Genetically Modified Food in class which I actually got an A for but what if I hadn't known a thing about it??? If I had no ability to spout some bullshit out at that time how?

Today we wrote about seed propagation and cloning/tissue culture which I have absolutely no idea about and that was SPM question on 2006! Thank God Chong was there to save the day lol.

And I have nobody there that I am close to. There is only about 9 people in the class and I don't really talk to any of them. I mean none who I would tell my secrets or my problems to. I just sit there pretending to read a book or pretend to sleep.

If not, I'll feel stupid.

Seth abandoned me. BJ abandoned me. Hafiz abandoned me. Only Kooks loves me now!

I seriously wanted to drop it so badly...

But then today, my mom finally let me drop the subject!! I begged and begged and begged and finally she snapped and said do whatever you please!

Once that weight is lifted off my shoulders its easier to think for myself now. When she said that I was taken aback and felt so light and airy.

I was getting ready to write the letter when I thought that its actually not as bad as I made it out to be. It was just me being rebellious yet again.

I actually want to stay in EST! I can make new friends. I can ace the subject. I can totally have fun.

I realised that if I just stole looking at the negative part of things, there is actually something beautiful in it.

Lol why so emo la me.

So I guess I'm taking this subject and honestly I'm quite scared. I'm sure its gonna be hard but somehow things will be ok.

I hope.

Oh yeah, and today I beat Garrett in arm wrestling. I hope he didn't just lose on purpose...



Look at Kooks disturbing me while I'm trying to do chemistry work!

Benny And The Emerald Forest

Hi!!! I've reached a milestone in my life though not a big one la.

I've watched my FIRST EVER MUSICAL!!!!

Its called Benny and the Emerald Forest!

How did I get to know this? Sarah blogged about it a few months ago here and I so wanted to watch it the first time but it was christmas season and I was back at kampung... But no matter because they performed it again last night and tonight too!

I arrived there around 6.30pm and my dad and I loitered around for a while outside. If you're trying to picture this, I was in pink jeans and striped top and I wore glasses. I always feel ugly with glasses. Its like medicine, I hate it but I need it in my life to live.

Ok, so, I arrived and waited for Tiara to come. But while waiting, Nate came along! He told my dad that his parents knew my dad, but my dad did not recognize them. Only in the car after the musical that my dad's mind clicked and he rememered them. Okay nevermind, I'm digressing.

This is the feel of the whole thing.

I'm sorry for all the crappy photos!! I know I'm a bad photographer.

I feel pissed at first actually because the musical started at 7.45pm!!!! This is all because the guests of honours (is that how you spell it?) from all around Asia came late. Or maybe some of them. I actually read a whole chapter from Dancing At Midnight and then played a few games to distract me from my rage (I HATE WAITING). Unfortunately, losing games infuriates me more so that didn't work.



Then when they finally came and sat down, this woman just had to make a speech and by this point, my morale was just so damn low that all I wanted was 9gag and some iced lemon tea to comfort me. And then they played a video which again unfortunately had some glitches so in the end, there was no video lol.

So the musical started an HOUR LATE. How can??? Me and my dad's morale was so low, especially mine la sorry. I have really low tolerance for lateness (though I also sometimes am late, which in that case I am SUPER DUPER SORRY) and when the musical was about to start I really had to kick myself in the ass to wipe away my anger and just enjoy the musical.

YET, WHEN THE NARRATOR CAME OUT AND DID HIS THING, IT WAS SOOOOOOO AMAZING!!!!!!!

That was all the ass kicking I needed.

The intro was just *speechless*. No words for it. The narrator was so... so... *speechless*.

He's my favorite cast heheehe.

The cast was amazing given that they only had 10 DAYS to rehearse and everything and I am just so amazed! Imagine what could happen if they were given a few months.

Actually, when they were singing, I would've thought that it was recorded and then played but it wasn't! So, I was just sitting in my seat with my mouth hung open and just thinking.... WOW.

However, I would love to kick the crew in the face because people the audience could hear the people talking backstage. I don't know how that could happen or maybe it was intentional but ngeh, its easy to forget that it didn't happen.

The cast was already so great then the crew should have put more effort into it too!

Oh well, it was still amazing!

And here's the cast! Tiara and I rushed down when it was over and with all the huru hara, this is the best photo I could get. T___T Look at the little boy in the suspenders, thats the star!! CUTE OR NOT!! And see the fairy with the tall hat and wand, "she's the best singer"(my dad's quote). And then see the lady in red, thats the evil witch who freaked me out so job well done!

Aiya, I'm such a bad photographer...

Thanks narrator guy for the kick in the ass. I am telling you, he is soooo soooo soooooooooo amazing!! The voice OMG THE VOICE was so narrator like. And see see see! He's got so much coolness when I asked for a photo, he posed like that!  You just have to watch him someday. I wanna know his name because he's the kind of guy that could make it big someday and I wanna say to people I've seen him before it was cool lol.

I wish I asked him to act out a few lines and record that but that'd just be creepy. And I am obviously not a creep. At least not in real life. *shifty eyes

It'd be cool if he narrated my dreams.

All my pics are blurry dunno why. And I look weird...

I seriously super duper love Sarah's Popular!!!! Sarah is Miss Priscilla and she really potrays the good witch (or fairy) really well!

I feel like Miss Priscilla is the type of friend you would tell your secrets or problems to and she will comfort you.

And Miss Priscilla got lots of fans! O.O Actually its not surprising lol. I wanted to say bye but lots of people were begging to take pics.

And as we were going out, my dad said she was the best singer. Talent scouts are you reading this??!! And I can say that I knew the Fairy Godmother before it was cool also lol.

I demand that you watch this so you can know exactly what I'm talking about. Skip to 0.10.

My two favorite fairies! They should've gotten bigger roles eh!! What is this!? Maybe the evil daughters of Miss Elvina (the evil witch).

But they were so cute! Too cute to be evil la. Theres another pink fairy and I love all three of them! They looked really graceful and I'm not joking when I say the Three Pink Fairies (thats what I call them in my head) were mesmerizing. I stared only at them in their dancing scene.

Not creepy at all...
The girl on the right is Jia Tian (or just Tian Tian) and on the left is Nuhaa.

TALENTED or not!!? :D She's only 10 I think in this vid. I think la. I'm spouting BS (BullShit) And she's really graceful on stage as you can tell. I've never seen her sing a solo live though so I hope I'd at least get to see her once in school.

Tian Tian is a ballroom dancer also from school. Last year, she was in Choral Speaking and since she's 14 now, she has 4 more years of guiding the team.

I feel so proud1!! I feel like a Jie Jie (older sis) to these two girls and really want the best for them!

I feel so happy to watch them all! There's a fluttery feeling in the pit of my stomach

I used to be in a musical when I was in Primary 1 in Seri Insan. I was a munchkin in the Wizard Of Oz and all I had to do was act cute and short.

I can't wait for the next musical!
