It's official: Malacca sucks.
We went to A'Famosa, which, according to my sister who was reading some pamphlet, won some award. The food was bad, the rooms felt like they haven't been cleaned for ages, and there wasn't anything fun to do there.
Duane was the most amusing thing that happened.
Beatrice: Ah Duane, when I say Cinder, you say rella, okay? Cinder?
Duane: Snow White!
Haha I love that kid. ♥
Anyways, there was the BN exam this morning. It was easier than I expected. I won't get full marks but I don't think I'm going to fail either.
During the exam a sir came and picked up my paper and told that that I had nice handwriting. :D I didn't say anything though, I just tried a weak smile. I was kind of distracted thinking about the line up for the match against Boro tomorrow.
After the exam we were told of the schedule for camp, and there are a lot of holes. As in, there are too little activities per day. Also, it's kind of suspicious that there isn't any footdrill. Hmm, I can't wait for the changing parades! I remember this Sec 1 girl told me that she liked changing parades.
We counted our strength wrongly before we were dismissed, and we almost got killed for that. I remember Wesley saying something like "Camp is going to be much worse than this". There was probably much more but I was distracted by the red Toyota sports car which I was comparing to a Lamborghini. I have the attention span of a fish.
After we were dismissed about half of our group went to Plaza Sing to buy the cloth for our flag. I got an iced caramel macchiato!!!!!! VICTORY! >:) It was so so so so so good. Ahh I'm salivating just thinking about it now.
I met up with Bernice to go to Paragon to get my Arsenal calendar. But instead of getting this, this is what I bought: this month's Arsenal magazine, No Rinse Soap & Shampoo [[for camp]], and the best fucking thing of all....
THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL WITH THE B-SIDES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO MUCH AWESOME. ♥ I can't remember how long I've been wanting this already. I just never got around to buying it because I was hoping someone would get me it.
I didn't get the calendar because by the time I saw it at HMV [[at $17.95, much cheaper than the $28 I saw at the shop in Paragon]], we were super tired so we went to Marche to sit down and eat. Ah I love good food. This is all I've eaten today:
- An iced caramel macchiato
- Honey glazed ham with mashed potato
- Crepe with custard and strawberries
- Strawberries and mango
- A diet coke
Mhm my tummy is satisfied now. :)
I so nearly got Stella by Stella McCartney at Takashimaya, but I was about $25 short. D: It's so so so so good. Gah. It's so soft and feminine and so pretty. I know I'll wear it a lot, probably more than Eau des Merveilles [[but not because I like it better, but because it's not limited edition, haha]]. *sigh* I need it. D: Christmas present anyone?
And how awesome is Lanvin? Their pearls, omg. Perfection. ♥ And I'm not a big pearl fan, so that's saying something. I also saw this pair of really pretty orange CK heels, but yeah, not enough money. :/ On sale and in my size too! *sigh* There was also this other pair of heels I saw from Nine West. Electric blue, and so gorgeous. They look painful though, and what do you wear with electric blue?
I also saw one "too busy to fcuk" shirt at FCUK. I distinctly remember Justin wearing that in the first season of QAF... Weird, huh? If that one was by FCUK, it's nearly 7 years old, and if it's not, tsk tsk.
All in all, a very fun trip. :) Even if I am much poorer than before.
Watching the Gunners play Boro tomorrow will be my first live match since... urgh, a long time ago. Life has just been too busy lately. :/ I have also just come to the realisation that I will not be able to catch Arsenal v Chelsea live because I'm at camp. Urgh urgh urgh urgh SO MUCH DON'T WANT. D:
I should be at home in my comfy bed screaming at the TV instead of being in a state of half-awakeness awaiting a changing parade in camp for the game. D: I am so unhappy about this, it's not funny. If it were like Arsenal v Derby, then you know, I'll be unhappy but not "AAARRRRGGGGGHHHHH *punches*" kind of upset. This is so unfair! >:(
And I can't find anyway out of it either. I hate having obligations. I'm going to make sure I'm rid of all obligations the moment I am able to do so. I don't understand why we can't just study and not have CCA and CIP and whatever crap. It's not enough that I'll get you your fucking 10 As, I have to be an all rounder. Urgh.
But anyways. Back to Boro. I have no idea what the lineup is going to be. The back 4 picks itself, if nobody gets food poisoning or something [[which is actually pretty likely, considering the rate we've been losing players lately]], but the midfield and attack is a bit more tricky. But I'm sure Arsene will pick the best lineup available... IN ARSENE WE TRUST.

NIN
My new ambition in life is to see NIN live.
All these are from Reading '07.
I have no words. NIN is the best.
This is the first day of my last days
I built it up now I take it apart
Climbed up real high, now fall down real far
No need for me to stay; the last thing left, I just threw it away!
I put my faith in god and my trust in you
Now there's nothing more fucked up I could do
Wish there was something real
Wish there was something true
Wish there was something real in this world full of you
I'm the one without a soul, I'm the one with this big fucking hole
No new tale to tell
26 years on my way to hell
Gotta listen to your big time, hard line, bad luck, fist fuck!
Don't think you're having all the fun
You know me I hate everyone
Wish there was something real
Wish there was something true
Wish there was something real in this world full of you
I want to but I can't turn back
But I want to
I'm leaving the country tomorrow, and no, I doubt we'll be coming back to Singapore on the same day this time. I have about a billion things to do before I go. But yet I'm still on the com. I'm amazing, I know. Let's do a little list, shall we?
1) Pack my bag. Everything's strewn across the bed right now since last Tuesday, I'm such a slob. I got back my helmet that we used for the Macbeth production from Lynn on the 16th, and I just brought it downstairs today morning. I amaze myself sometimes.
2) Charge my MP3 player. I'm going to be terribly bored on the journey, so I better have some form of amusement. I'll probably watch Prison Break until we get there. Prison Break rocks. And like what I told Yuan Yee, even if you don't like the show, there's always Wentworth Miller to oogle. ;)
3) Finish reading Stardust. I've been trying to for like the past 3 weeks or something. I just find the way Neil Gaiman writes hard to read. But watching the movie before reading the book has probably also played it's part.
4) Practice the guitar. I haven't touched it since last Sunday. And the two pieces I have now are really hard. Yayz.
5) Do my History homework.
6) Do my Chem homework.
7) Finish digesting my BN course notes by today. The exam's on the 8th, I'm coming back on the night of the 7th. Best thing is that I don't know what to study, 'cos no one's said anything. D: Bernice tells me to just study everything.
8) Watch I Now Pronounce You Chuck And Larry or The Matrix.
Since this will be the last post before I go, here is a little present, courtesy of my sister.
Belinda: *looking through Bernice's bag* Do you have a mirror?
Bernice: Nope.
Belinda: Wow I thought someone like you would have one. Why not?
Bernice: I haven't found one large enough.
[[And this one she told me last night when I asked her whether or not I looked like Beatrice]]
Random person: Oh you two [[referring to me and Beatrice]] look so much alike!
Bernice: What about me?
Random person: You related meh?
Okay I shall go and do my homework like a good kid now. Have a good day everyone!

You Cannot Fuck With This
Okay. So either something is wrong with the hit counter, or I have a scary amount of people visiting my blog. I'm going with the first, but in the event of the second, I really wonder who are these visitors. TO EVERYONE WHO'S READING THIS: IDENTIFY YOURSELVES ON THE TAGBOARD, KK? ILY BBS.
WHEE I JUST GOT BACK FROM THE BNCO COURSE. The course was okay, actually. Weird, huh? I was telling Joan that I expected changing parades and lots of pumping, but we only knocked it down twice, and there wasn't any changing parade. So yay.
During the map reading lecture, the sir/lecturer went around and asked people, "What would you do if you got lost?" I said that I'd get a map and try to find my way out, but in reality, I'd probably call my dad, then sit there in fear, contemplating my death, until someone comes and gets me. I'm pathetic. But it's not my fault that my map reading capabilites = zero. And I can't do knots either. I'm a genius, I know.
I realise that I look really really really retarded with my hairnet on. Ergh. Like some factory worker, but worse. And a ma'am told me that my hair is too thick and that I need to get an overall hair net for my bun. I'm taking that as a compliment; I love my hair. ;) Well, at least, I have hair to love.
I think I'm addicted to my phone and smsing. Because today we were told to bring our wallet for lunch, and me being smart, intepreted it as "Don't bring your phone along", so I didn't. And I didn't eat, not because I wasn't hungry, but because I was disheartened by the lack of a device with which to communicate. I also think I'm addicted to coffee, and more specifically, Starbucks. The first thing I think of when I want a drink? Depending on the place, either a caramel frapp or a coke. I'm hopeless. *sighs*
Just because half of the paragraphs here start with "I" and 3/4 of it is about me, I shall do a recount. So today, after we're dismissed, our assistant group instructor asks us to stay back to talk to us. Something about being sorry for being harsh on us for something I can't remember, so it couldn't have been that bad, could it? I know what's-his-name-the-one-with-the-zebra-specs was way worse than Wesley though. But whatever. We're the last to go, so we get pulled by the DO for the 8th to rearrange the tables in the lecture room.
After we're done we run to get our stuff and change. While doing that, we get screamed at for being slow and that we only have 4 minutes to change and to get the fuck out of the toilet [[which smells like piss and shit, by the way]]. So everyone just gets their stuff and rushes outside the school to change. It's quite funny, because some people are wearing their half-u -- doing their belt and what not, and some wear their half-u just to go out and pull off their pants/skirt.
I personally do the latter. I change in the smelly toilet, then I get into my prettiful car to strip down to my t-shirt and shorts, minus my shoes. Wonderful system, isn't it? No, my feet don't smell. They do look quite beaten up though. Must be the sun. And isn't it funny that heels hurt less that the boots? I know, I'm ROFL-ing.
ETA: I just realised that I had my mp3 player in my sister's bag the whole time, and I was banging it around for two whole days! :O But it's still fine, so yay. It's much hardier than I thought it would be.
TWO-ONE TO THE ARSENAL AWAY TO THE VILLIANS! :D
I haven't watched the game, because I've been dead tired, so I can't comment on the game, but yay for winning. Especially in a game lots of people were expecting us to struggle in. :) COME ON YOU GUNNERS!
But D: at Aleks and his achilles. I'm going to be optimistic and hope that he'll be back for Newcastle. Remember when he was tackled like really badly during the West Ham game, but he was back for the next one? Even though Arsene said his leg was all red and he couldn't walk? I'm hoping it's like that this time. *crosses fingers*
LOOK WHAT I FOUND! :DD
AHAHAHAHAHAHA I LOVE YOU BOYS. ♥ Sagna is looking directly at the camera, tsk. Spoils all the spontaneity of the picture.
Hahaha this might just convince me to get an LG Shine after all.
Choose a less suggestive pose next time, yeah?
HAHAHAHA Ronaldo = PWNED! I LOVE CLICHY! ♥ I'm deciding between him, Kolo, Robin, Aleks and Cesc for my jersey. So many players, so little jerseys.
I just like the pwned pictures. Haha. I like Diarra as a player, but I wasn't too pleased with his comments about leaving if he won't play regularly. What did he expect? To walk right into a team with 2,000,084 central midfielders to choose from? Tsk.
Hahahaha I saw this on Setanta Sports. At first I was like, "Uh, footballers are heroes?" then I realised it was the show. Hahaha I'm retarded.
Hmm we're getting Burnley for the FA Cup. I'm not too familiar with their team, so no comment about that, but they are from the Championship. Aren't you amazed? We got a non-Premiership side! If my memory serves me correctly, we got Liverpool at this stage of the competition last season.
And some A-M screencaps.
This is really quite mean but I can't stop laughing at it.
YEAH WE'LL TAKE ON ANYONE. I have confidence in our Gunners! :D But better Burnley than ManUtd.
Haha CLASSIC!

PURPLEHOOD SLEEPOVER
OMG SO MUCH FUN!!!!!!! Purplehooders rock! \m/
I went to Debbie's at about 3, then we started watching Heroes. Heroes is awesome! HIRO NAKAMURA IS THE MOST AWESOME CHARACTER IN HEROES!!!!!!!!!! :D Actually we spent a lot of time watching Heroes, hahaha.
We also used the com for a bit though, and I forgot how crazy the angry German kid was, haha. I think the first time I saw that was because someone linked it as "Jens Lehmann as a kid". Hahaha evil peoples!
Watching Heroes is very interesting. Jing has a major crush on Thomas Dekker, the actor who plays Zach. We must've watched Homecoming like 3 times. She also thinks that Mohindy is super cool. Yay for stupid nicknames! And Debbie and Jing think that Sendhil Ramamurthy is about the most gorgeous Indian man they've seen. I agree, haha.
I fell asleep at 11 while watching Heroes. >.< I obviously can't run on like 6 hours of sleep. Darn it. So I took coffee. Kinda stupid, in retrospect. After Heroes, we talked until 3.30 before we slept, kinda early because Debbie fell asleep much earlier and Jing had to wake up early, but I still didn't feel sleepy then.
I thought I wouldn't be able to sleep, but the next thing I know, it's 7.30 in the morning. -.- I didn't even have any recollection of falling asleep, or trying to. Weird, huh? I guess caffeine just make me think that I'm not sleepy, but I actually am. Whoooo I smrateth. :D
We had scrambled eggs and chicken pie for breakfast, yummyness. I love chicken pie! Especially the one from Delifrance. It's my new favourite. It's awesomely awesome! I also like the special pie from Polar. It's super duper uberly yummy!!!!!! Oh great now I have a craving for chicken pie.
After that we watched Heroes again, then Jing left. D: Then me and Debbos tried to find The Matrix, but it was nowhere to be found! So we decided to find other stuff to watch. We took Full Metal Jacket and The Crow. FMJ is actually kinda funny, in a twisted sort of way. I say twisted because if I were a maggot, I'd probably do a Pyle.
Okay, first off, HOW COOL OF A NAME IS DRAVEN???? I AM SO NAMING MY FIRST BORN SON THAT! :DD Anyways. The movie was really really really good. A bit gory, and I could've lived my life happily without seeing a naked butt, but it's still really good. There's a bit of everything -- romance, gore, action, drama. I though Eric's and Shelly's relationship was beautiful, in the small shots that we were showed. And how sexy is Brandon Lee's voice?
And some photos!
Me and Debbos! :D
And this is Nathan the bumblebee. :D Me and Jing named him! We had this theory that Debbie was dreaming about Nathan Petrelli because she was so happy when she woke up, so we named him Nathan. :D Jing named the doggie Thomas, and I named the hamster Mathias. Notice how they're all boys, haha?
It was super duper fun and I'd do it a million times over. :) I LOVE MY PURPLEHOODERS! ♥

Sevilla v Arsenal
Sevilla 3-1 Arsenal.
You know, I'm usually more pissed at the other team and the ref or anyone else after a loss, and don't make a mistake, they did play a part in it today, but I'm more disappointed in how our boys performed.
We were terrible. Apart from the first 15 minutes or so, we were dominated by Sevilla. We didn't have any drive or determination to come back from a goal down, and the passing was horrendous. The performance was, to use the words of the commentators, "untypical Arsenal".
Senderos was horrid, and Traore was almost practically useless in terms of defending. Plus we took Hoyte off for Sagna. Actually, the only good movement in the game was the goal. The cross was darn near perfect from Bendtner [[and that boy is impressing me more and more; I know I wasn't happy with him and his inflated ego before, but now that he's showing that he just might be able to live up to that...]], and Eduardo controlled the ball perfectly to score that goal.
Sevilla's players were fucking dirty. There was this bleached blond guy who was really pissing me off because he made like 5 dirty tackles in succession on our boys and didn't get booked. Their players were also fucking divers. Navas was especially bad. I mean, making Eboue look like he actually can stay on his feet? Yeah, I think you get my point.
[[But maybe my general distaste for Navas is getting in the way of me assessing his diving skills fairly. Seriously, that guy gets on my nerves. I don't know why, he just does. I think it started with the whole "homesickness-going-to-a-psych" thing. Which is weird in itself, because I don't have anything against homesickness in general. Then today I saw him being interviewed on Eurosport news. Ergh. I don't even remember what he said, just that he was super gross.
I know someone's going to go, "OMG YOU CAN'T DISLIKE A PERSON BASED ON LOOKS." It's just one of those things, ya know? Like how I don't like bright pink. There's no real reason why, I just don't.]]
The referee was a retard. Half his decisions went Sevilla's way, one particularly bad one I remember was giving away that free kick on the left that lead to their second goal, and he seemed determined to give Sevilla a penalty. And he didn't book that ugly and dirty bleached blond. >:(
The defeat could be both good or bad for us, really. It came in a match where it didn't really matter, with the majority of our B team, but I don't know how our players are going to bounce back from it. We have 3 away games in succession in the league starting with Villa. We have to win at Villa. I don't know what will happen if we don't. But on the bright side, now we have no more shit about our unbeaten run, and it prevents us from being too complacent.
I know for sure one bad thing that came out of this match though -- Cesc has a small hamstring problem. Shit. I don't want to face Villa without both him and Hleb. I'm praying that it's a small problem. *crosses fingers*

Senderos was horrid, and Traore was almost practically useless in terms of defending. Plus we took Hoyte off for Sagna. Actually, the only good movement in the game was the goal. The cross was darn near perfect from Bendtner [[and that boy is impressing me more and more; I know I wasn't happy with him and his inflated ego before, but now that he's showing that he just might be able to live up to that...]], and Eduardo controlled the ball perfectly to score that goal.
Sevilla's players were fucking dirty. There was this bleached blond guy who was really pissing me off because he made like 5 dirty tackles in succession on our boys and didn't get booked. Their players were also fucking divers. Navas was especially bad. I mean, making Eboue look like he actually can stay on his feet? Yeah, I think you get my point.
[[But maybe my general distaste for Navas is getting in the way of me assessing his diving skills fairly. Seriously, that guy gets on my nerves. I don't know why, he just does. I think it started with the whole "homesickness-going-to-a-psych" thing. Which is weird in itself, because I don't have anything against homesickness in general. Then today I saw him being interviewed on Eurosport news. Ergh. I don't even remember what he said, just that he was super gross.
I know someone's going to go, "OMG YOU CAN'T DISLIKE A PERSON BASED ON LOOKS." It's just one of those things, ya know? Like how I don't like bright pink. There's no real reason why, I just don't.]]
The referee was a retard. Half his decisions went Sevilla's way, one particularly bad one I remember was giving away that free kick on the left that lead to their second goal, and he seemed determined to give Sevilla a penalty. And he didn't book that ugly and dirty bleached blond. >:(
The defeat could be both good or bad for us, really. It came in a match where it didn't really matter, with the majority of our B team, but I don't know how our players are going to bounce back from it. We have 3 away games in succession in the league starting with Villa. We have to win at Villa. I don't know what will happen if we don't. But on the bright side, now we have no more shit about our unbeaten run, and it prevents us from being too complacent.
I know for sure one bad thing that came out of this match though -- Cesc has a small hamstring problem. Shit. I don't want to face Villa without both him and Hleb. I'm praying that it's a small problem. *crosses fingers*
You might've noticed that I'm back in Singapore already. Ubin sucked major ass. The place was so run down, the food was mediocre, the "pools" were full of rubbish, there were no activites because there were no instructors at the facilites, and it was just plain shit. Oh yeah, there were 2 billion mosquitoes and I'm now itching all over. I have this clump of like 5 mosquitoe bites near my ass, and it's super irritating, because it's sooo itchy but I'll look like some old perv if I start scratching it in public.
I have pictures, or rather, my sister does, but I don't feel like posting them right now. Maybe in another post.
Oh yeah, I came across Kevin's photoblog today. I don't understand a single thing, but the pictures of him are cute. :) He did post the lyrics to Enjoy The Silence though. Yay for good taste in music!
I've come to the conclusion that people with bad taste in music are the ones who play their music really loudly in public. I haven't heard anyone play good music before. Maybe it's the kind of circles I run in, but I don't think so.
And some pictures, because no post is complete without them.
I love this picture of Vincent. ♥
Best face. EVER.
HI MATHIAS. Why does Vincent look so short, haha?
Okay have a good day everyone! I should be gone for the next two days. But you never know.
