So tell me darlin', do you wish we fall in love?

Slip your joy in
where the sun don't shine,
You are a thousand diamonds
around my feet,
Radiant steps don't cost a dime,
No, not in my world.

I'll bring you a slice of good life, honey,
If you'd dance
like you don't care.

Sidewalk tunes don't cost a dime,
not when we sing them.

Distracted diving and delving into pens and papers, nights at the wrong places and late-night novels. Life can be strangely satisfying and frustrating, at the same time. Studying is so not my forte.

JC life, as I can summarise, is like the O-level-cramming-jaunt, except 24/7.

Onto probably the most heavily commented photo album in facebook history! Kai, I abhor you.

The Bin's fascination of Simlin's shorts was nauseating, to say the least.




Newly coined maxim of: NKL (nicholas-kenneth-leon) the new LOL.

Check out, our bling, yo.
Yiwen try to be cool!

vomit face.


Mozzie proceeded to do the robo-dance with me after a while. That is why we are friends.




Best shot of the day, actually.

Moz: Let's act like coolies!


Holidays have been so-so. Sleepover stint is officially over. Went PRAWNING with Dayna and we didn't even catch one prawn. Tres pathetique. Haha sleepover=phaaail.

Crashed clauds, and had some major snooze fest. Sometimes I wonder what I'm doing with my life (doesn't mean its one heck of a ride though! Life is a highway.) Breakfast at Tiffany's and ice-cream for breakfast as always:)

I miss mother. Thank god she's coming back tomorrow, the house is an absolute mess.

Cobra starship and Shiny Toy Guns on the feel-good playlist this week. Also, I think that Ellen is probably the best thing that has happened to American Idol since... well, since ever. Who needs ya paula! Here's looking forward to next year.

PW, is the bane of my existence.

Cheerio everyone, have a good last day till the torture begins.

Not your average, beverage!

Anyone know where I can get some of these?

By the way, the cheerleader at the end only goes up because of the really awful movie 'I love you Beth Cooper' we just caught. It was carthiginian pig swill, to put it lightly. I've had a really bad spell with bag movies lately, hopefully Coco before Chanel and Time Traveller's Wife won't disappoint :D

Sushi buffets and weekends,
those are our best friends.

Have a good holiday everyone!

My life is, well, pretty darn average.

'Today, I had a milkshake. It did not bring all the boys to the yard.' - early morning feelings whilst sipping a mango blend in the CJ canteen.

'Today, I forgot to turn my phone on silent before going to class. During literature my phone went off really loud, I have the Kim Possible Kimmunicator ring-tone. The class went silent except for one guy who yelled to me "What's the sitch?" This made my entire week.' - This actually happened.

'Today I didn't know what to do on the computer, so I started to click and drag the mouse across the screen to make hilighted rectangles. It was amusing.'

How we all forget the little things in life :)

I found a mistake, in the way we were made.

We are a choir,
Let the demons in your head,
take control of your mind.
We are a choir,
singing the right hymns
for the average small-town playboy.

Probably the best part of the mundane school day.


*Math lecture
Simlin: I feel like eating meat.
Yiwen: Hmmm?
Sims: I'm such a carnival.

*Yiwen recounts the episode to us afterwards.
All: *choruses in laughter
Amanda: OMG simlin you're so funny! You mean 'cannibal'!
-silence-
Me: Eh, actually, she meant 'carnivore.'


Hilarious stuff.
Insomnia, is really no joke.

Late nights and early lights

Let love tear us apart,
I found the cure for a broken heart.

Pictures at last. I've been so broke lately that I don't think I'll ever get a new camera D:

Weekend of starbucks-overloads, rock-climbing-induced-bruises and way too much unhealthy BBQ food. Not that I'm complaining.

Ridiculous trampling all over the cemetery on a perfectly sunny Saturday afternoon. In ode for Jac's PW project! It was... enriching?! Do not be afraid is you see any orbs or extra hands/faces/ghostly figures in the pictures.




Tour guide by day, grave guarder by night.



eeek.
Jac pretending to be hard at work.

'... Bukit Brown cemetery should be conserved due to its wide range of flora and fauna.'
Obviously, we had to snap some shots of the pathetic 'flora' to lie our way through.

clarebear! photo credits to her.

The road to the top of the hill.
I got married to Clare! It looks like we're walking to into the sky.

I love this picture haha!
'Someone once told me the grass was much greener,
on the other side' -as told by Ginger.

Remember this? And its extremely apt as well.

Largest gave ever. It was a massive dancefloor.

Baybeats! Sadly no pictures yet, since a certain somebody doesn't have facebook. Honestly, what century do you come from Cal?! Should have gone Friday though!

Went back to SAC cause I skived off on monday, and it was so-so. Catched the Orphan and it was hella scary. Was it any better that Dayna chose the front row seats?! Screamed like stuck pigs. The only thing distracting me was the fact that I had lost my damned ATM card (rather embarrasing incident at starbucks which Mark rescued me from.) Now i owe dayna a ton. Egad.

I am never following Luki's movie recommendations ever again. Spending money on a shite movie is the biggest suckfest ever. HAHA! Mel covering her eyes and falling asleep = highlight of the movie. Nick laughed like a horse. Talk about a weird sense of humour!



Prawn-fishing tomorrow or spending five hours at an 'excursion' in army camp? You tell me.

A Whisper and a Clamor,

“I’m afraid of losing you.”

Clare smiles. “How could you lose me? I’m not going anywhere.”

“I worry that you will get tired of putting up with my undependableness and you will leave me.”

Clare puts her sketchbook aside. I sit up. “I won’t ever leave you,” she says. “Even though you’re always leaving me.”

“But I never want to leave you.”

The Time Traveller's Wife - Audrey Niffeneger

Dance! Until you just can't.

Hey lover,
do you remember when,
we used to dance in your apartment
till neighbors would knock on your door?

I wanna do it again.

________________________________________

Today was probably the longest day in my life. It definitely did not help that I spend history breaks running away from a certain-someone. Eek.

One day I will drop dead from all the work, drop dead inside. Heck it may already have happened.

Tomorrow is Jubbly-time! Rock-climbing on Friday, scavenging around cemeteries with crazy loons, barbeques and eating the 'best-oluah(?)-in-the-world' with crazy Dayna who flashed a-not-so-PG-13 sign from her car window after night study. Hopefully, the remedy for the long week to come!

Damn, I really need a camera.

For the love of coffee, music and art.

Starbucks is the way to go.

Friday, I got mind(screwed? keep it pg-13, I always say.)/convinced to skive off school. Breakfast at 1pm at Soupspoon with Jan, and headed off to the Raffles City Starbucks branch to 'mug'. If you call half-hearted math-formula scribbles, mugging.

It got all noisy cause The Body Shop decided to host this mega promotional offer right outside, and you know how the heartlander-aunties get when they spot a wicked deal, so we trained down to the Tanjong Pagar branch for some peace and good coffee. Wouldn't have known about that spot if not for the fact that I go there every month for dental and study for a couple of hours at that branch occasionally.

I've been leaving doodles everytime I go on paper napkins, nothing big; postcard-size sketch of the interior, a drawing of the sweating vanilla ice in front of me, caricature of the boy blending a milkshake across the counter. It was a real surprise when I went in and saw some of these paper napkins tacked on the cork board, and this dude comes over with a smile and a Venti-sized Chocolate Cream Chip and says:

'Courtesy of Starbucks, we'd like you to have a drink on us!'

Thus the story of how I got a free drink yesterday. Jan got virtually ignored though. HAHA.

So who knows, if you start leaving sketches on paper napkins at your neighbourhood coffeehouse, they'll be nice enough to give you one on the house :D


School has become the sadsack of the century. Except the birth of our new Post-it Backwall never fails to cheer me up! From a neat row of teeny-blue-slips, its become a massive mob of coloured paper. It is fast-evolving into a replica of my bedroom wall, with 23 people contributing to it. Once Kai brings her camera, I'll snap a few shots of the more entertaining ones (Dayna's, no doubt.) and post it up.

So much music, so little time. Au revoir!

Call Me Irresponsible, call me unreliable, throw in... undependable too!

12:45am - Surrounded by a pile of messed up literature notes and scrambling to an over-highlighted text that I can't remember highlighting. Contemplating giving up and handing it in on tuesday instead.

What can I say? I am not cut out for this JC life. (truly, truly, irresponsible.)

Frick, WIL in driving me mad. Why can't we do a novel that doesn't involve over-sexualising everything (including a frenzied horse, a herd of cattle and a massive paperweight), like Neil Gaiman's SANDMAN series? Or something from Margaret Atwood. Now my friends, that is a true piece of work.

Technically, its monday. The start of a whole new week. Let panic reign!

Danny Chandra's drum clinic tomorrow night! If I don't drop dead of exhaustion first.



Oh, and points for those who get the Michael Buble reference :)

Goodnight, and travel well.

You've got a smile that could light up this whole town

Confess your kiss,
still knocks me off my feet.

What can I do?
He's my favourite star,
follow you along the fields,
its sleeping against white picket fences tonight.

I'll dance without the music,
Its your eyes alone
that sing the melody
of a summer spent delving under the moonlight.

What is time, really?
A speck in the sky,
We've got so many more stars to drink in,
Won't you slip out of sight
with me.

I've never been a big fan of Taylor Swift. Until I saw Lucas Till (hubba hubba) in the You Belong With Me, phwoaaar.

So we spent the entire week singing the same lines over and over and over and over again in class till lao shi told us to put a sock in it. Well who says you can get sick of it when you've got the awesome crew like mozzie and tiara and mandy moose to belt out the tunes with?

Or should I say, Lady Haha and Lady Rara.

C2 didn't know that the black-haired girl in that YBWM video was ALSO (drumroll) Taylor S. What a dork! A cute one, none the less :D

It's been a rough week. Owe my friends a TON of money (in hospital bills, concert tickets and ice-cream feasts) and I'm still depressed about not being able to go for a concert that I was so stoked for. PW is being a pain in the behind and three guesses WHY, literature essay due on monday that I have no bloody clue how to do and the parental units are unbearable! To top off the lot, my phone hangs every half-hour and my camera is screwed ARGH.

I did make a new friend this week though. In the form of a cat. JUBBLY! We should take a photo next time. 'Cept, wait, I CAN'T.

I need to go somewhere. Like Paris.



But till then, there are promotionals to study for. Gack.
