anyway it's e weekends again. thank God i've finished my english, snz, n cpt assignments oredi. phew. no need to worry that much this weekend. just have to study snz for e test next week. 45 pages of history n crap ar in such short notice... ok what i really wanna say is....enjoy ur weekends n be thankful alwez.

SFEC youth: i luv u guys!!! *hugs*

blast. headache now. i have absolutely NO idea how to do my SNZ assignment due next Monday. arghhhh. stupid subject. dun even wanna think about that now.

anyway. i turned down e chance to go cinema watch Batman Begins with sizone youth. the reason? truth is, i just dun feel like hanging around them much. they're rili nice n funny ppl, but joining a new gang who u're not familiar with n pretend that u've known them for years just doesn't work that way. sigh. how i miss sfec youth n hanging out with them. so i'll watch War of the Worlds with someone else instead, even if it means asking Yang to go with me. *squirms*

well. there is always a brighter side to things. my tutorial this afternoon was cancelled. good old Colin. yay! haha. n it's friday tomorrow...which means yet another week ahead. it's funny how i realise now that i actually prefer weekdays more than weekends now. hmm. maybe it's coz i have more assignments during weekends n have to face e sizone youth... i dunno. sigh. Lord please help me get more comfortable being with them n not miss sfec youth too much!

being NEW is tough!

ah. saturdays. got up around 10, still groggy and feeling cold. esther invited me to hang out with e sizone youth for a movie. so went to westfield, had Cambodian lunch, then watched "Hitch" at Ken's place. nice movie! didn't know that it's a romantic comedy. haha. a lil awkward though, since i'm e NEW girl n everyone's alwez asking if i'm cold, or simply asking me to help myself to e popcorn. neways, really appreciate their hospitality n craziness. haha.

rugby match will start in 10 minutes while i'm typing this. just received 1 huge news: Prince WILLIAM is in town! oh gosh. i think he had his engagement at Queenstown n joined in here for e rugby. yeah together with about 20000 Englishmen. haha. everywhere i go on e street can see people in either red or black clothes, kinda amusing in a way. still trying to imagine the prince cheering for e Lions in e cold (gonna be minus 3 degrees with e wind tonite). maybe he has 1 of those portable heaters. oh better, his fiancee can be his natural heater. hehe

anyway feeling rili rili tired. still hoping to a get a good camera soon. some people said it might snow soon. but prob is, nobody knows HOW soon. funny how i use to think all ang-mo countries have snow everytime. chch have snow rarely, n it isn't deep all the time, too. e rain washes away snow pretty fast too, according to nicole. hmph. snow skiing is still on my things-to-do-during-e-holidays list, so pray that it will come true for me. hehe. oh yeah jia you All Blacks!

here comes e weekend

i lurve fridays. haha. class ends at 4, and weekends r alwez e best time of the week (apart from thursday when there's no test!).

anyway christchurch is gonna be really busy this weekend. everyone's excited n u can almost feel e buzz anywhere. it's e BIG rugby match between All Blacks n e Lions tomoro nite. haha. i'm not dat into rugby (prefer soccer lots), but do know dat e Barmy Army (correct spelling?) is coming to town. yeah not santa claus. btw, they're Lions supporters. chch will be divided then: AB supporters in black, Lions supporters in red. haha. shud be quite interesting to see e crowd tomoro. might even catch e game if there's time after home group.

got e bluez syndrome this morning. haha. just wasn't feeling hyper at all n while i was reading my book (really good book btw), in comes Yang with his big n annoying mouth. he's super active today, god knows why. damn i was so "lucky" when teacher assigned him to be my partner to present an article in class. there i was, trying my best to understand e passage, and also holding back my hand so dat i won't slap him. he is an intelligent guy, but sheesh keeps asking lotsa rubbish questions. even bio teacher got fed up with him, i think. ok. english class over, quickly get away from him. mana tau, i'm stuck wif dat idiotic guy in chem lab for 2 whole hours! gosh. he keeps looking at my lab report n does wat he's best at: bugging me. chem teacher (graham) said i shud charge him 5 dollars for each time he bothers me. wao i'd be filthy rich by then.

oh yeah, was browsing frenster just now n saw SOMETHING. does Kelly have a bf oredi? omg how could i not know dat??? is it dat adrian guy??? n wat's up with Mickey and Minnie???? and i thought pinnochio, merman, n dwarf is horrible enuf. ahhh e disney world continues to dominate. i rest my case.

my sweetest memory

wao. juz looking at stef's blog reminds me of NS again. i really dun care how other people think that i'm always repeating the same thing about how fun NS has been. i dun care them saying NS is tough or boring.

coz all i know is it has been the greatest experience of my whole life. well, my 18 years of life. it's what i've always wanted. without it, i don't know how i'd live my life today. it has made me a person i am today.

there, i learnt the meaning of determination, dicipline, patience, friendship, trust, and so much more. i learnt how to laugh out loud without a care in the world. i learnt how to cry without shame and also to comfort others. i learnt that friendship outlasts time. how ironic is this: i felt closer to my frens there whom i've known for 3 months much more better than my frens back home whom i've known since 10 years ago.

i've learnt to treasure what i have right now. even the smallest things that i've never even noticed. or the person i dislike now. i now know that all these is not an accident. all the people i've met has a purpose for being in my life.

there, we prayed together for a fren who had hysteria. there, we comforted a few frens who took extra pills. there, we did the very best for our team. there, we cherish every second of being together as we know we might NEVER cross paths again.

words just cannot express how much i've learnt and gained during the short period of 3 months. i wish that i can go thru it again every single day, but it's impossible. i just thank God again and again for making me this lucky. thank You so much!!! =)

this is the 'popular' song sang there. reminding us of those 3 AMAZING months...

Mungkin Nanti - Peterpan

Saatnya ku berkata
Mungkin yang terakir kalinya
Segala lepaskan semua
Ku yakin inilah waktunya

Mungkin saja kau bukan yang dulu lagi
Mungkin saja rasa itu telah pergi

Dan mungkin bila nanti
Kita kan bertemu lagi
Satu pinta jangan kau coba tanyakan kembali
Rasa yang ku tinggal mati
Seperti hari kelmarin
Saat semua di sini

Dan bila hatimu termenung
Berundang di mimpi-mimpimu
Membuka hatimu yang dulu
Cerita saat bersamaku

Mungkin saja kau bukan yang dulu lagi
Mungkin saja rasa itu telah pergi

Dan mungkin bila nanti
Kita kan bertemu lagi
Satu pinta jangan kau coba tanyakan kembali
Rasa yang ku tinggal mati
Seperti hari kelmarin
Saat semua di sini

Tak usah kau tanyakan lagi
Simpan untuk mu sendiri
Semua sesal yang kau cari
Semua rasa yang kau beri
