one night only

Happy 18th Tiara! Hope we made a memorable celebration. Between bad stage moments, dayna's 'I'm not drunk' and one-too-many floral dresses, it was a good way to 'celebrate' the half-way mark for prelims as well :)

Till our next venture...

MAMBO NIGHT.

The Fabulous Destiny of Amélie Poulain.

Amélie is a shy young woman with a pronounced taste for all life's small pleasures; immersing one's hand in a sack of grain, cracking the crust of a crème brulée with the back of a teaspoon or skipping stones on the Canal St-Martin.

Paint

I was checking out Kelly Lynn Waters pretty amazing Halcyon Days art blog (which happens to be a tad more well-known that its main benefactor) and stumbled upon Chris Dent's marvellous work.

Cue, Temper Trap's 'Sweet Disposition' (500 days. How could you forget that scene? It's like your eyes being opened for the first time.)

I've always loved the notion of sketching skylines and dreaming up everything, from illustrious skyscrapers to quaint corner shops. Unfortunately, the inability to draw straight lines and lack of deceptively 'easy' shading and perception skills, I've retreated to the safe realm of doodles. For now.

You can see more of Dent's work here

'Frankly, my dear,
I don't give a damn.'

- Clark Gable as Rhett Butler in Gone with the Wind 1939

Hot hot heat.

I just had to post up some YOG pictures. Unfortch the camera died on us at Men's swimming semis. Diving is good enough! Throngs of us headed to Toa Payoh so support Tom... I mean, Tim! Ha. ha. ha. *weak laughter.

No but seriously, Tim is the hero.






And that concludes the YOG experience.

Love is art

DUE TO SCHOOL, PRELIMS, UPCOMING A-LEVELS AND ENDLESS TESTS, there has been an alarming shortage of radness in my life. Is it sad that the most exciting thing that happened to me today was when Ms. Yoong threw my GP essay into the bin cause I was reading it during math class? HURRAH!

Hurrrrr the school thinks it's smart to ask us to have 'potluck' on Teacher's day so they don't have to fork out moolah for light refreshments. Golly thanks! And the kong-monster's elaborate morning speeches have always been unbearable, but lately they are worse. Like, cut-throat-worse. IDK WHAT I'M SAYING SCHOOL MAKES ME INCOHERENT.

To avoid doing any sort of productive work, I've been watching movies from the DVD box (the count is stagnant at 287 movies, of which I have watched about 50), reorganizing my CDs and playing obscenely loud guitar at the 1ams.

So well imma do something lots more interesting than Hypo-testing. Like, pumice my feet or get hit by a truck of hot garbage juice.

Thanks Juno, for giving me the words! See you guys soon :)

Disaster strikes on a daily basis

Well so, today's phototaking was a complete and utter disaster. Ms. Teo was absolutely frightening. And strangely cool.

No, come to think of it, scary > cool.

After witnessing that, I will thank my lucky stars everyday that I don't take history!

We hope that you enjoy the show!

WOW okay no this is more awesome because....

a) It isn't Kelis related.
b) Hello, it's the Beatles!
c) Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney forever, boo to John Lennon and his geeky specs.

Who needs milkshakes when you've got a....

Idk why, I just like moustaches :)

Today was hopelessly boring and everything else apart from schoolwork was endlessly fascinating. 18 more days to prelims. Someone please shot me (with some motivation, at least)

Cake 101

Anyone need emergency chocolate cake? Check here for the recipe


Have yet to try this out, but I have a feeling that once I have, it'll be chocolate cake in a cup with thick dollops of peanut butter or vanilla bean ice-cream for supper every night. Enjoy!



P.S. HAPPY 45th SINGAPORE! And thanks to the government for giving us this unbelievably long weekend :)
