I pray that you will wake up soon to see the smile on the faces of your loved ones. I pray that you will wake up soon to ease the worry in their minds.
I'm not there, but that doesn't mean I don't know about this.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
This is just a clarification.
If only you read this blog of mine. Only then, you'll know how often i've been disappointed by everyone's actions. I'll never leave quietly. I have nothing to hide from any of you. All I wanted was some support, some assurance and maybe knowing that I have you guys. But it was too much to hope for.
You should know me better than that. I will never leave without saying goodbye. And you should know everyone else much better since you grow up with them; what they are capable off.
I am deemed as unimportant as long as I'm nothing even though they know I've brought so much to the family already. They always have thought of me as the one that will bring everything good to the family, but please... don't reappear once I've gotten what I've always wanted to have.
I did not leave quietly. I was ignored. But let me tell you something, I will return... quietly. Becoz, I don't want sudden association with any of you. Coz I know, then, all of you will return into my vision because of what I will be in the future.
There's no point in having your children to compete with me so that you'll be at the same par with me. They have each voiced out what they wanna be. Never force them to be what they don't wanna be. Success is not measured by which profession or certificate you get but by what you turned out to be by the end of it.
I'm sick and tired of having to constantly prove myself when I know at the end of the day. This is my life. You, have nothing to do with it.
It may sound as if I'm cutting off all ties. But I'll only be staying around those who have stood by me.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Nur,
I wonder if you read this blog of mine. There are times that it appear as though you do. We both made a promise to each other and you promised me to be something that others here have never been. To not be like any of them. I taught you everything because of what you desperately aimed not to be. So please, go to school. Don't skip school anymore and allow others to think what they have always thought.
I know that you don't keep things from me. You tell me everything and even asked me permission sometimes. Doesn't mean that I'm here and far away from you... You won't have anyone to talk to. Doesn't mean that I won't know and I won't care. If I didn't care, this portion to you will not be posted up. So please. Keep your promise and hold firmly to your dreams. Don't disappoint me the way everyone else there already have.
Love always,
Cik DeeDee.
---------------------------------------------------
Mama,
Happy Birthday. I'm sorry that I did not get to celebrate you turning 50 with you. =) But that doesn't mean I've forgotten about it.
I never wrote it in any of the past few entries coz I was afraid that you read my blog... BUT I hope you like the cake I've ordered to be sent to you! Enjoy!
Lotsa Lurve,
Dee.

Swimming was an after school activity, APART from CCA & house meetings / trainings. It was something that every student have to do. An SJC girl has to own a swimming cert.
Gymnastics was something that was done during P.E. on top of our usual basketball, volleyball and things like that...
GUESS WHAT MY JUNIORS HAVE RITE NOW?
All Seconday 1 and 2 students are exposed to Dance, Music & Drama Modules, each lasting 7-weeks for 4 terms.
The perks of being semi autonomous huh? You choose your own modules.
Bloody shit. I'm jealous. LOL! I want to be back in Sec sch too~
Sunday, March 22, 2009
Yes so the thought has solidified in everyone's head.
GOOD LUCK TO MY FUTURE HUSBAND FOR GETTING ME FOR A WIFE. rite?
bloody shit. so pple have been telling me alllll over again. Good luck to whoever ends up marrying me. His life will not be peaceful.
I can be a sarcastic biatch to the husband but at the same time, he will see the other side of me that you people will definitely find it hard to believe that such a side exist.
Bloody fuckers.
I can be nice when I want to be alrite.
Remember those walls I built
Well baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm takin'
I ain't never gonna shut you out
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
Woah...
Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't forget
To pull me back to the ground again
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
The risk that I'm takin'
I'm never gonna shut you out
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo)
Halooooo ouuuu
Halooooo ouuuu
Halooooo ouuuu
Ouuuuu ouuuuu ouuuuu
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo

Let's see.. what have I been up to? Nothing much really. Just that been adjusting to school life. Have tons of readings to do due to my weird ass combination this sem.
I'm too caught up with my worry about certain things and surviving in school that I haven't exactly been.. ermm.. myself much. But apart from that, I'm a much more friendly person this past week then I was the beginning of school. I've started to smile alittle bit more.
I have a love hate relationship with school. I dont know it that I'm stupid or what. Have no idea why is my understanding of things is so much different then what the rest comprehends. Drives me crazy... Makes me start wondering whether did I read things rite. HAIX!
I've started fencing here. Its ok. But I definitely prefer my competition back in Singapore. It was much more challenging in a sense? I miss the guys and their nonsensical bickers. The guys here tend to buy insurance so much more often then the guys back home and sometimes, I try so hard not to roll my eyes. So in fencing, I recall, Tyson, Nathaniel (Nat), Mark (?), Rob, Tracey. Cant remember anyone else!!!
I had the worst nightmare. My first dream since I've reached here. I started crying in my sleep. The pain was too real. Then I woke up and ask myself... is it really? true? I dunno. I'm scared. *hugs self*
I've been procrastinating. My assignments are half done and one of it have to be handed in on Monday. Ok. not really procrastinating. more like.. i've been doing it bit by bit and now i've put it aside coz it doesnt seem to flow. BLEARGH~! maybe i'm aiming for too much perfection. But then again, maybe i should. There's too many things at stake.
I have a rash growing at the back of my left hand. I suspect its an allergy reaction and I have no idea to what. It has the same effect as my allergy reactions to any Calvin Klein perfumes. It itches so bad and at the same time painful. HAIX.
Oh. And I need to save up for a car. And I need a job.
--------------------------------------------------
I look within too much that I've not looked out and around. I'm too scared to think about other aspects of my life that I currently live only for school.

I'm going through Midsummer Night's Dream for my seminar presentation coming up in 3-4weeks. Since I have not chosen my question, I thought it would be wise to do so only after reading the txt.
Now I remember why I'm a closet romantic. I've always been attached to the works of Shakespeare. I guess I'm a true blue literature girl? LOL!
As the words flew past, wouldn't it just be beautiful if pple still express their feelings so passionately like so?
A Conversation between Lysander & Hermia (When Hermia's dad forbids her to marry Lysander and to marry whoever he chooses)

Been out on plays marathon. Yup yup. Watched Mediocrity on Friday and After The End on Saturday.
And yes, I watched it alone.. I decided that if I were waiting for someone I might end up missing the Fringe festival and would screw up my assignment. I would still wanna watch a few other shows.. So we'll see. Lol! Its funny how theatre is dirt cheap here and on top of that, I'm on concession rate. MUAHAHAHAH~!
Its really different. As in when they say Caution: Nudity/sexual content, it really did mean that their actors will walk around naked and maybe about to have sex right there on stage. LOL! If they did, then it wouldn't be a play anymore. It'll just be porn; with a really long roleplay. WAHAHAHA!!
So I was at Bakehouse Theatre. Its a quaint little house like building, greyish black walls with bright red windows. Audience capacity isn't much just enough to have a cosy setting. But its a 15minutes walk from Victoria Square. Which is ok but if the sun is scorching, it might just be alittle painful. LOL! I like it there at Bakehouse Theatre.
I also like the fact that a play here doesn't necessarily have to be 24scenes or 2hrs long like the standard showtime back in singapore. Mediocrity was 30mins and it left an impression more than any 2hrs show i've watched.
Its cool how some of the audience are actors and in the midst of mingling while waiting for the house to open, they receive a phone call from a director and VOILA~! they're suddenly booked for an upcoming productions.
Its like the bustling life of Moulin Rouge.
Mediocrity was a show about everything Mediocre, nothing out of ordinary, so much so the characters are depicted from normal everyday people. The main character (for eg) have done nothing much in his life other then exist. He gets bullied by his wife, neighbour, boss and even his doctor. He gets puts down, lost all self confident and he finds solace in coffee. The one beverage he enjoys while sitting at the table and staring blankly into space.
He suddenly found release with death. When the doctor diagnosed that he might die, he gleefully took it as his escape (not initially but little did he know, the doctor has his name mixed up with someone else's. LOL!)
After the End was something about this guy who is mentally unstable. he was obsessed with this particular girl whom he claims the love of his life that he actually kidnapped her when she was sleeping or drunk or watever it is into this underground shelter and told her that there was a nuclear explosion up there and she cannot leave or open the hatch or the radioactivity will just kill of them.
Twisted but nice. Some thing is just not right about it and I cant seem to pinpoint what it is coz 90mins was DAMN LONG! i nearly did fall asleep.
Thanks to my blog entry, i might just be half way through my assignment.
----------------------------------------------------------------
I bought a local band's cd. It was interesting, music arrangement and all. I was kinda approached by it. I think I give this music student vibe or something coz this is not the first time. Haiz.
But anywayz, the music was good. So i bought it. The band is called - A Sound of Mind.

Like something wrong hor? i think its lopsided.. hmrph!

Tomorrow would be mirroring today as well!
I had Politics through film today both film screening and lecture. LOL!
This week's topic was Russian Revolution. So we have to watch this Black and White Silent Movie called October. Its quite funny actually.. well, at least, I found it funny! LOL!
And then after that, I ran through 4 faculties from Humanities (in which my Politics Film Screening was held) to the Education building (on top of the hill) where I'm taking Visual Arts as a module this semester. It was a back to back timetable for me. About 5-10minutes to spare! bleargh!!!
So I had Visual Arts Workshop. LOL! that was fun seriously. Its still life drawing. Thank god our subject wasnt naked or i wouldnt have been able to finish all my drawings! WAHAHHAH!! I'll be too embarrased to look anywhere below the torso!! lol!
Truthfully, I never knew I would still have it in me to draw. After everything that has happened and me putting away ALL drawing tools 5yrs ago, I was actually skeptical about enrolling myself in this module.
So anyways, by the time I reached class, I was actually breathless. LIKE FISH OUT OF WATER SIA! and I met Jade. Remember the girl I made friends with at Week O? Yup. She took Visual Arts as one of her modules this sem as well!
I made friends with Chloe. This girl who happened to be standing beside me and I was clueless about everything since well, i wasn't aware there was a damn workshop last week. So I actually asked her what was it that she was putting inside the box (the instructor wasnt here yet. so i got no one else to ask rite? lol)
So I found out. I have assignments. Yup. 3 in fact and I'm already behind. LOL! but somehow I'm not worried. LOL! i need to shoot myself. OVER CONFIDENT SIA! LOL!!!!!
Plus this week's, I have 6 drawings to complete. And Melvyn will be the victim for 3 of it. Actually not only 3. I think for the entire Semester. lol!
Then I met the most hilarious guy in Visual Arts. Kelvin. At least I think that's how the name is spelt. I mean how else rite? He is ABC. Australian born Chinese. LOL! we're the 2 kutus who didnt know shit about anything coz obviously. Didn't know there was workshop last week. Champion rite?!
He wasn't a clown in class, he just appeared to be when we were both walking to the Plaza since I was on the way to an already LATE LUNCH and a (not so) Grumpy more like hungry Melvyn. Sorry hor! Forgot to tell you that class was 2hours! LOL!
Oh and you know wat else? Clumsy me had an easel fell on me today! Bloody shit. Embarrasing sia. So obviously, now pple know who i am! BABI AH!
I'll take a pic of my drawing today and will post it up later!!
So what am i doing in school? I'm actually gonna start on my readings and then... well.. maybe.. Check the fencing team out? They're having their training today and they told me that I can drop by and just see.
If things go well, this might just be on the list for me this year... http://www.unigames.com.au/extra.asp?id=368&OrgID=1
The all awaited Uni Games.

WAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA~!!!
THE AMOUNT OF BOOKS I HAVE TO HAVE AS MY TEXTBOOKS! YAY!
LOL!!!
and the number of plays i have to review! WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!
I have a knack for this dont i?! getting myself into screwed up situations. LOL!
oh and guess what! i was late for international relations. So I didn't go for it. And now i'm writing to my lecturer to grant me permission to crash into another class!!! The one subject that I've been doing my tutorial for!!! *pulls hair*
I am actually frustrated with the damn bus.
Sunday, March 08, 2009
Gosh.
I can't lie to myself forever... Can I?
I'm more then the person I am now. That I know.
Don't ask me what I did over the weekends - I did nothing.
Don't ask me who i went out with - I have no one.
Don't ask me whether i've made friends - I have none.
Don't tell me that at least I have someone here. Don't tell me that. Why? Do I really?
I've never felt this way before. Its ridiculous really.
Loneliness is a crime. It should be a sin as well. It should.
Just refrain from asking me things which I have to continously repeat myself. Please. I know it is all out of concern.. but ya.

Im supposed to go to school and get my Student ID. But ah well, i'll just do it tmr. I'm too lazy to do anything today...
My butt's aching from all the climbing of hill i did the past few days.
I'm going to cook later, waiting for my potatoes to cool down before cutting it up. I hate cooking. Its not that I can't. Its just that I'm lazy to do it. ESPECIALLY the cleaning up afterwards.
haix. To tell you the truth, i would rather not eat. bleargh. I have no idea why the pots and pans here have to be extra heavy either.
I'm still tired from everything or rather, events that occured before I reach here. Its been close to a week that I'm here.
I bury myself in all forms of mundane activities so that I wouldnt have to think about anything else. I washed the toilet yesterday! yes people. record it down. go get 4D!
Do I miss home? I'm actually not sure. Am I homesick? Actually i don't think so. I can survive here perfectly well on my own.
Missing everyone? hmm yeah i suppose.. alittle bit.
The one thing i don't really like about staying with a family is.. I dunno. maybe they see the need to try and be nice to me?
Everytime they see me, they asked, how's my day? how's everything?
The one thing i can think off in my mind is.. Boring. I can't possibly answer that out of all purpose of politeness. I'm not used to people asking me how was my day and what i did. I actually find all these conversations painful
I'm not the kind to open up willingly. I'm not the kind who likes talking about my day and my activities. How interesting can a conversation that's answered with , "It was fine.. i had fun." "it was ok... nothing much really." and "its was great.. rather interesting." be?
Honestly, i think i might actually be happier being left alone without any forced conversation to deal with. I take every opportunity available to escape.
I miss people who i can actually talk to. About anything.
Its actually surreal that this journey has begun. I still cant believe it. Even though, its been what I've wanted to do since sec sch. Study overseas. My degree...
Its been rather distant and awkward and I can't seem to pinpoint what it is actually. Not on earth half the time. Maybe he misses home? I don't know.
Its only been a fortnight and so much has changed. oh well. People move on fast. People change.
Its about time I do. I'm tired.
I wonder what will 5yrs do to those i've left behind at home? haix.
Wednesday, February 25, 2009
This, is Week 'O'. and I had my orientation just now.
I'm the exotic looking girl where nobody knows from where.. and even then, they're still shocked when they found out i'm not australian.. *faints*
I'm the only asian in my first yr undergrad bachelor programme. (There's this other Malaysian guy around. but he's rather annoying. so, no one really bothers talking to him.)
I'm known as the girl that doesn't really have an accent, have no idea where she's from but we all know that she has big beautiful brown eyes!
I really don't know how to react to that. really.
I have no idea whether i'm ugly or wat lor! but then.. everyone's somewhat young and SLIM! idiots. i feel fat.
So we had to play a game just now... BINGO. its like descriptive random phrases and you have to put in the name of the people that you think fits it.
There was a box for, not born in Adelaide, has brown eyes, etc.
So everyone ran to me when i have no idea who said that, SHE'S NOT LOCAL to someone (not that loud of course)
and suddenly i was specimen A.
let me show you an example of one conversation i had.
there was one girl saw me and asked me... OMG! everyone's saying you're from singapore... so is like singaporean your first language?
me: *chokes on lemonade*
me: erm.. no.. we speak english perfectly well and singaporean is our identity..
her: ohhh really? i work in an asian restaurant and they have all these singaporean dishes..
me: ohh wow.. ok..
her: so what;s your modules?
me: i'm taking the politics majors..
her: oh wow.. you're really smart..
I really didnt know how to react to such things.
So in the midst of nearly everyone writing my name in that box (after looks of shock that i'm not local and awe that i'm singaporean) suddenly someone was like.. i love your eyes! they're really brown! like milk chocolate! beautiful too~
then everyone stared and then those who already had someone in the tab of not born in adelaide wrote my name in "has brown eyes" box.
I just stared. In horror.
Unlike someone who got approached by fellow region counterparts and asked whether he's japanese, i sadly didnt receive any of that. all i got was winks and smiles. bleargh~!
somehow, i suddenly dont see any other fellow region counterparts anymore. especially at the cafe just now. i have no idea why!!
and my first friend is jade. she's platinum blonde, has greenish brown eyes and really really really pretty. well at least i think she is. pretty i mean. she's doing a double degree in art/education.. so ya.. might be seeing her ard sch.. who knows.. *shrugs*
so today,
I was Specimen A.
I'd be better of in a medicine degree don't you think? as long as i'm not something to be stared at and then write a thesis on. LOL~!
I'll try to update more often k? byeee.. me going off again... soon. i realised. i dont really have much clothes for sch. so me is going jay jays.
Saturday, February 21, 2009
YES I'VE REACHED YESTERDAY at 7.40am (australia time that would make it 5.10am in singapore)! SAVE AND SOUND!!! LOL!!
been going about and ended up in Marion Shopping Centre. MUAHAHAHAH~!! me is liking it. and yes. i shop by myself.
I went to central market with my landlord yesterday to get food and necessary groceries.
Went to Marion just now coz i was exploring the buses. SO yes, i was by myself waiting for the non-existent bus. haix. coz i was at the bus stop a little TOOOOOO early. bloody hell.
But its a nice change. I love staring at the valley when i'm in the bus. LOL! AND I LOVE MARION. Have i said that already? Lol.
Living on the hills is quite inconvenient as the buses are scarce. I might move down to the flatlands... who knows? LOL!
It was my landlord's brother's birthday today.. so the family was here and they had BBQ and i was a part of it!! yayness!! the children are so cute my god! i wanna bite them.. but i dont have pictures~!!
sorry!
And thanks everyone for sending me off the other day. really appreciate it. Missing you guys already!!!
Will be bringing my cammie out one of these days~!

Sometimes, I dunno who's been the fool.
Sometimes, I dunno why is it so hard to be truthful to me.
Sometimes, I wonder whether did I know the truth or otherwise all these while.
Sometimes, I wonder what's going on.
Sometimes, I wonder why do i even bother staying around when there's so many unanswered questions.
Sometimes, I wonder whether is it me that's been too hard on you.
If yes, then tell me, and i'll leave.
-----------------------------------------------------------
I'm not looking forward to things anymore. I'm leaving behind all familiarity for something unknown. I've lost all faith in mankind. All faith. And yet, I'm diving into a possible shitty situation all by myself. I have a knack for such things.
Have I been blind? I'm not just another character in a book. I'm human.
How can everything right be wrong? There will always be Hope? No? But no.. All hope is lost.
The grass isn't always greener on the other side, you'll have to paint it green sometimes.
I'm hurt, I'm lost and I'm heartbroken.
----------------------------------------------------------
Thanks. Thanks for showing me exactly what I mean to you.
Don't ever think of sharing the light that comes along with the glory of my achievements. Don't ever think of that.
Don't ever think that a day will come where I will stoop and bow down. Don't ever think that.
Don't ever think that you will be in my memory till end of time. Don't ever think that.
Don't ever think of all the possibilities the future could bring you with my success. Don't ever think that.
Don't ever think that you'll have a place in my heart. Don't ever think that.
Don't ever think this girl will just compromise her life and believes for you, of all people. Don't ever think that.
Don't ever think that I will ever ask for your forgiveness and don't ever think that I will accept it the day you seek me for it. Don't ever think that.
I told you that I will never find someone who will ever accept me for who I am ever again. And you never did believe did you?
-----------------------------------------------------------
I'm so afraid. I'm just really afraid. of things, of you, of everyone, of myself. For once, I wanna let my guard down, I wanna be dependent on someone for a change, I wanna be pampered and looked after too. A girl always will wanna be loved even if she denies it. I wanna be that girl too, but too many things have showed me not too.
I wanna ask things from people, only to realise that the questions can't seem to come out of my mouth coz I'm afraid of the rejection that might accompany the reply.

i was fen.cing. with josh. *rolls eyes* basically, we're the two without dates when i ask him why he said this.. ,"i dont have girlfriend la, cant be bothered... waste money."

Friday, February 13, 2009
Remember the last time I went for Alumni Gathering at Fort Canning? Yeah well, our cammies were not the only ones filled with our faces you know. We took pics with the event photographers. LOL!
So i've been waiting for the pics to materialise when I received a message from Kin this morning our pic was on album cover. For a moment there I was like.. HUH? WHAT PICTURE? WHAT THING? WHAT EVENT?
She asked me to check my mail.
And this was what I saw as the album cover.

We took ton of pics and I didnt expect them to put it ALL UP! We took abt 10-15 pics (i mean with event photographer is alot wat), and the best part? its ALL UP! *hides face*
Hahaha.. DramaTec better be proud to have seniors like us. LOL!~

'Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of shit.'
And Deena, where did you find this? you too free hor!
